The Maine Coon is the biggest cat breed used as a pet. It has a unique look and good hunting skills. It is one of the oldest natural breeds in North America, specifically native to the state of Maine, where it is the official state cat.
Nobody knows for sure how the Maine Coon got to the United States, so there are several different ideas. The breed was popular in cat shows in the late 19th century, but it almost became extinct because of long-haired breeds from overseas in the early 20th century. The Maine Coon has since been brought back and is now one of the most popular cat breeds in the USA.
The Maine Coon is a large and friendly cat, which is how it got its nickname, "the gentle giant." It is characterized by a big ruff along its chest, robust bone structure, rectangular body shape, an uneven two layered coat, and a long, bushy tail. The breed's colors vary widely, with only lilac and chocolate disallowed for pedigree. People often say the Maine Coon has "dog-like" characteristics. Professionals notice certain health problems recurring in the breed, including feline hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and hip dysplasia, but reputable breeders use modern screening methods to minimize the frequency of these problems.

On February 5, the Senate voted to acquit President Donald Trump (decide that he was not guilty), for both charges.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi refused to send the articles of impeachment to the Senate after the House approved it. Senator Lindsey Graham proposed that he and Senator Mitch McConnell "change the rules of the Senate so we could start the trial without [Pelosi], if necessary".
On January 9, 2020, Pelosi said she would deliver the articles soon, but continued to cite a need for Republican transparency in the Senate; the same day, McConnell informed members of his caucus that he expected the trial to begin next week, and Senator Josh Hawley announced that McConnell had signed on as a co-sponsor to his resolution to dismiss articles of impeachment not sent to the Senate within 25 days.

Holby City
Holby City (styled as HOLBY CIY) is a British medical drama television series shown weekly on BBC One. The series was created by Tony McHale and Mal Young as a spin-off from the BBC medical drama "Casualty". It was first shown on 12 January 1999. It is set in the same hospital as "Casualty" in the fictional city of Holby. Some episodes have characters and plots shared with "Casualty". There have been episodes broadcast as "Casualty@Holby City". Some episodes have characters and plots shared with the show's 2007 police procedural spin-off "HolbyBlue".
"Holby City" is shown once a week, all year round. Each series now contains 52 episodes.
The show follows the lives of medical and ancillary staff at the fictional Holby City Hospital.
As of January 2020, twenty-one series of "Holby City" have been shown. It is made at the BBC Elstree Centre in Hertfordshire. It has featured episodes filmed on location abroad. From October 2010, "Holby City" moved to high definition broadcasting.
The series uses a team of researchers to ensure medical accuracy. Surgeons check the scripts. Cast members are taught to perform basic medical procedures. They spend time on hospital wards for research.
"Holby City" has been nominated for over 100 television awards. It has won ten awards. The 2008 British Academy Television Award for Best Continuing Drama, one Black Entertainment Film Fashion Television and Arts (BEFFTA) award, two Ethnic Multicultural Media Awards, two Music Video and Screen Awards, and four Screen Nation awards.
The first series averaged 9.27 million viewers. The eleventh series averaged 5.44 million viewers. Later series have had over 4 million viewers per week.
The first series had eleven main characters. All have since left the show. New main characters have been written in and out of the series. There are fifteen main characters. Well known actors regularly appear. Cast members have included Patsy Kensit, Jane Asher, Robert Powell, Ade Edmondson, John Michie, Al Hunter Ashton, Alex Walkinshaw and Jemma Redgrave.
In September 2016 the BBC said the show would be put up for tender.
The tender document said the contract would be open to independent producers and BBC Studios. It would be for three series of at least 50 episodes each. It would be delivered from December 2017 with no break in transmission. It would be produced at BBC Elstree Centre.
BBC Studios was the winning bidder and will continue to produce the show to 2020.
"Holby City" was created by Tony McHale and Mal Young as a spin-off from the BBC medical drama "Casualty". It is set in the fictional Holby City Hospital.
Young wanted to explore what happened to patients treated in "Casualty" once they were taken to the hospital's surgical wards.
The stories on "Casualty" are limited to the "accident of the week". "Holby City" has stories about long-term care, rather than immediate life and death decisions.
The series was commissioned by BBC One Controller Peter Salmon. It was first shown on BBC One on 12 January 1999.
Since its beginning, it has expanded to cover other wards. These include a gynaecology ward, an acute assessment unit and a maternity ward.
Young explained that new wards are necessary to allow the crew to rotate sets.
Episodes of "Holby City" cost around £370,000 to produce. This is more than the BBC soap opera "EastEnders" which costs £130,000 per episode. "Casualty" costs £450,000 per episode. As "Holby City" is a high-volume, year-round production, it has relatively low production costs. Set-up costs can be spread over many years. Sets can be re-used. This is not the case for shorter series or one-off dramas.
Former "Casualty" producer Johnathan Young was an executive producer of "Holby" first series.
Mal Young was executive producer of "Holby City" until 2004.
Kathleen Hutchison worked with Mal Young as co-executive producer from 2003 to 2004. She left the series to become executive producer of "EastEnders".
In March 2011, Johnathan Young returned to the BBC as executive producer of both "Casualty" and "Holby City".
"Holby City" storylines are planned eight months in advance. The series has a number of scriptwriters. They are found and scheduled by script development editor Simon Harper.
Harper finds some writers through the BBC Writers Academy. This is a course which gives its graduates the chance to work on prime time television. McHale teaches at the academy, and graduate Abi Bown went on to become a regular writer for "Holby City".
Harper also recruits writers through the BBC's Continuing Drama Shadow Scheme.
McHale wrote the series' first episode, and served as the show's lead writer.
His 2006 promotion to executive producer was part Controller of BBC Drama Production John Yorke's plan to "put writers back at the heart of the process". Yorke said McHale's promotion was "fantastic. It means that for the first time you've got a writer running one of our big powerhouse BBC1 shows."
After McHale resigned the lead writer was Justin Young. He wants a more writer-led process from series 13 onwards. Writers will create more of the story of their episodes than before.
The serial employs a team of researchers to advise writers on nursing issues and health service politics. One medical advisor was given a cameo appearance in the series as an orthopaedic surgeon. Another advisor, recovery nurse Rachel Carter, appears in "Holby City" as a scrub nurse.
The programme uses different types os surgeons to check scripts for accuracy. Carter believes this is important as viewers might copy what they see in the show, such as CPR.
Actor Amanda Mealing said: "We pride ourselves on being realistic. You need to know what you are doing and why. It is a complex and foreign thing to act out an operation. For training, I watched a number of real ones."
Cast members are taught how to give injections, monitor blood pressure and check a pulse, and some watch procedures in hospitals.
Original cast member George Irving observed coronary artery bypass surgery performed at Papworth and Middlesex Hospital in preparation for his role as Anton Meyer. Edward MacLiam observed laparoscopic surgery being performed before joining the cast as Greg Douglas in series twelve.
"Holby City" and "Casualty" are both set in Holby City Hospital. This is in the fictional county of Wyvern in the southwest of England close to the Welsh border.
Bristol is used for city exteriors. Interior filming of "Holby City" is at BBC Elstree Centre in Borehamwood, Hertfordshire.
The "Casualty" set in Bristol was not large enough for the surgical ward and operating theatre needed for "Holby City". So some scenes in the first episode had to be shot twice, first on the "Casualty" set and then again at Elstree, with cast members travelling between the two locations.
In October 2007, "The Daily Telegraph" reported that the Elstree site would be sold, and "Holby City" moved to share a set with "Casualty", possibly in Cardiff.
In March 2009, the BBC said that "Casualty" would move to a new set in Cardiff. In April 2009, "The Guardian" said that the BBC would retain Elstree Studios for at least another four years.
Some episodes have been shot on location abroad. In 2004, the romance between nurse Jess Griffin (Verona Joseph) and anaesthetist Zubin Khan (Art Malik) had an episode set in Paris.
In 2005, registrar Diane Lloyd (Patricia Potter) followed consultant Ric Griffin (Hugh Quarshie) to Ghana. This was part of the BBC's "Africa lives" series, a week of programmes bringing African culture to UK audiences.
In 2006, an episode in Switzerland had consultant Elliot Hope's (Paul Bradley) wife Gina (Gillian Bevan) committing assisted suicide after her motor neurone disease worsened.
A 2007 episode in Dubai focused on "Holby" registrar Joseph Byrne (Luke Roberts) meeting new nurse Faye Morton (Patsy Kensit).
In 2008, Joseph and consultant Linden Cullen (Duncan Pow) travelled to Cape Town.
In November 2008, series producer Diana Kyle said that they would not be filming abroad again for the "foreseeable future".
On 10 December 2012, it was announced that the show had filmed one episode in Stockholm. This focussed on Jac tracking down hospital CEO Henrik Hanssen (Guy Henry).
"Holby City" is shot using the single-camera setup.
Filming occurs from 8 am until 6 pm daily, 50 weeks a year.
From July 2007 onwards, the show took on the filmising technique, giving the impression of having been shot on film.
On 28 May 2010, the BBC announced that "Holby City" would move to HD by the end of the year.
The series moved to HD broadcasting, with a BBC HD simulcast, from the start of series 13 in October 2010.
From the eleventh series a musical montage segment was included in each episode. This was introduced by McHale to modernise the show. This use of songtages was first popularised by the US medical drama "Grey's Anatomy". McHale stated he was unaware of this until after "Holby City" had used the technique.
Music is selected by each episode's scriptwriter. Sometimes the producers and director would select the music in post-production. Actors have had some input: Hugh Quarshie selected the music he believed his character Ric Griffin would listen to in theatre. Asked in June 2010 whether she felt songtages were appropriate for a serious drama show, Kyle said: "they are an excellent way of telling stories visually".
"Holby City" was first shown on 12 January 1999 on BBC One.
The show's first series ran for nine episodes.
In June 2000, then Director-General of the BBC Greg Dyke pledged extra funding for BBC One, some of which was used for extra episodes of "Holby City".
The second series ran for 16 episodes.
The third series ran for 30 episodes.
Episodes were shown weekly from the fourth series onwards.
Series four to nine ran for 52 episodes. Series ten ran for 53 episodes, including the stand-alone finale episode "Mad World", set outside the hospital. Series eleven ran for 52 episodes. Series twelve had 55 episodes.
All series from then on had 52 episodes. The series reached its 500th episode on 13 April 2010.
In the first series episodes were 50 minutes long. From the second series episodes have been one hour.
The first series was shown on Tuesday nights at 8.10 pm. The second series moved to Thursdays. Halfway through the third series in 2001, Holby moved back to Tuesday night at 8.05 pm. It then moved into the 8pm timeslot, where it has remained. The show is occasionally shown on a different day.
In 2007, the show moved to Thursday nights to allow HolbyBlue to be shown in the 8pm Tuesday timeslot. BBC One Scotland has often shown the series at a later time.
In February 2019, it was announced that repeats of "Holby City" would begin on the channel Drama. This would begin with the first series.
In Finland it is shown on the channel Yle TV2 and is called "Holby Cityn sairaala".
Series twenty-two started on 7 January 2020.
"Holby City" follows the professional and personal lives of medical and ancillary staff at Holby General. It has an ensemble cast of main and recurring characters. The show has 10 to 20 main characters.
The original cast of 11 characters featured in the show's first episode was consultants Anton Meyer (George Irving) and Muriel McKendrick (Phyllis Logan), registrars Nick Jordan (Michael French) and Kirstie Collins (Dawn McDaniel), senior house officer Victoria Merrick (Lisa Faulkner), ward sister Karen Newburn (Sarah Preston), theatre sister Ellie Sharpe (Julie Saunders), senior staff nurse Ray Sykes (Ian Curtis), staff nurses Julie Bradford (Nicola Stephenson) and Jasmine Hopkins (Angela Griffin), and ward clerk Paul Ripley (Luke Mably).
For the first series, Young selected actors who were already established and had a soap opera background. Young had previously worked on the soap operas "Brookside" and "Family Affairs"
French had starred in the BBC's "EastEnders", while Stephenson and Faulkner had starred in "Brookside". Griffin had also appeared in ITV's "Coronation Street". Hiring of established actors continued as the soap progressed, with former "Brookside" actress Patricia Potter cast as registrar Diane Lloyd, "Star Wars" actor Denis Lawson cast as consultant Tom Campbell-Gore, and "Family Affairs" star Rocky Marshall cast as SHO Ed Keating. Later, roles were given to comedian Adrian Edmondson, film actress Patsy Kensit, and "Jesus of Nazareth" star Powell.
There is a casting department at Elstree Studios which casts actors for "Holby City" as well as "Casualty", "EastEnders" and "Doctors". The programme also has two casting directors who bring in actors for the producer and director to audition. Some cast members who play main characters have made previous appearances in minor "Holby City" roles.
Current characters include acting chief executive officer and consultant neurosurgeon Max McGerry (Jo Martin), consultant general surgeon and medical director Ric Griffin (Hugh Quarshie), consultant cardiothoracic surgeons lead Jac Naylor (Rosie Marcel) and Kian Madani (Ramin Karimloo), consultant general surgeons Ben Sherwood (Charlie Condou), Ange Godard (Dawn Steele), Sacha Levy (Bob Barrett), and Serena Campbell (Catherine Russell), speciality registrars Dominic Copeland (David Ames), Xavier Duval (Marcus Griffiths), and Chloe Godard (Amy Lennox), foundation training doctors Nicky McKendrick (Belinda Owusu) and Cameron Dunn (Nic Jackman), director of nursing Adrian "Fletch" Fletcher (Alex Walkinshaw), and senior staff nurses Donna Jackson (Jaye Jacobs) and Essie Harrison (Kaye Wragg).
"Holby City" has had a number of famous guest stars.
In the first few series:
In the fiftieth episode
Other notable guest stars include
In 2003, the BBC reached an agreement with the actors' union Equity to cease offering walk-on drama series roles to members of the public as prizes. When an untrained person won such a role in "Holby City" in a competition, Equity complained to the broadcaster that such prizes were "demeaning" to actors, depriving them of paid employment. The competition winner was allowed to visit the "Holby City" set, but did not appear on-screen as a result of the policy change.
The BBC has shown occasional crossover mini-dramas entitled "Casualty@Holby City". It has a number of characters from each of the two casts.
Before "Casualty@Holby City", the two shows had occasionally crossed-over storylines and cast members before. For example developing a romance between "Holby City" Ben Saunders (David Paisley) and "Casualty" Tony Vincent (Lee Warburton).
The first full crossover was made by "Casualty" executive producer Mervyn Watson, and "Holby City" McHale. Work on both shows had to be halted for two weeks to release cast members to appear in the special.
A second crossover was commissioned in 2005 as part of the BBC's DoNation season. This aimed to raise public awareness of organ donation and to decide to sign up to the Organ Donor Register. An interactive episode of "Casualty@Holby City" was one of the headlining shows of the season, allowing viewers to vote by phone to determine the outcome of a fictional organ donation.
The third "Casualty@Holby City" crossover aired in October 2005. The four-part storyline tackled the issue of youth violence, following the events of a turbulent A&E demonstration at an inner-city school.
Another crossover was ordered for Christmas 2005. Rather than dividing the episodes between the two series' crews as had previously been standard, this crossover operated as an entirely separate production, with Kyle producing and Paul Harrison directing.
In February 2010, another crossover occurred when "Casualty" Charlie Fairhead (Derek Thompson) was operated on by "Holby City" Elliot Hope after suffering a heart attack. The storyline was shown as "Casualty" and "Holby City" episodes, rather than under the "Casualty@Holby City" title.
"Casualty" series producer Oliver Kent commented that, while it is "fantastic" to be able to produce crossover episodes, they are logistically difficult, and it is unlikely that another "Casualty@Holby City" episode will be produced in the "foreseeable future".
In September 2010, "Holby City" nurse Donna Jackson (Jaye Jacobs) appeared in "Casualty", and Kent hopes that characters from the two shows will begin to crossover two or three times a year.
On 27 April 2006, the BBC announced "Holby Blue", a police procedural spin-off from "Holby City". It was created by Tony Jordan.
"Holby City" was moved to Thursdays for the duration of "HolbyBlue" first series, with the spin-off broadcast on Tuesday nights at 8 pm.
In 2008, a two-part crossover episode with "Holby City" was developed for the beginning of the show's second series. The episodes were written by McHale and Jordan. "Holby City" registrar Jac Naylor accused of murder.
Yorke compared the crossover to the American "CSI" franchise, in that: "You really believe it's a world."
The second series attracted 5.6 million viewers to its opening episode. By the end of May 2008 viewer numbers had fallen to 2.5 million.
In August 2008, the BBC announced that, due to lower ratings, "Holby Blue" would not be recommissioned for a third series.
In June 2002, cast members from "Holby City" and "Casualty" competed against the "EastEnders" cast for the first "Sport Relief" fundraiser, dubbed "Sport in the Square". The teams competed in events such as taxi pulling, melon tossing and a beer keg relay.
The competition was shown on BBC One, and the event raised £10 million.
In October 2003, BBC One aired a "Kenyon Confronts" documentary by "Panorama" reporter Paul Kenyon, investigating hospitals run by the Private Finance Initiative. He discovered many problems within the hospitals, which were dramatised by the "Holby City" cast in specially written scenes.
