Monotreme
Monotremes are a group of mammals that form the order Monotremata. Monotremes are the only mammals that lay eggs, but they also feed their babies with milk.
The word 'monotreme' refers to their common rear opening, the cloaca. In amphibia, reptiles, birds and probably all early tetrapods, there is a common opening for urine, reproduction and faeces.
Evolution
Monotremes are derived from earlier mammals than the marsupials and eutherians, but their fossil record is poor.
The time at which the monotreme line diverged from other mammalian lines is uncertain, but one survey of genetic studies gives an estimate of about 220 million years ago. This is in the Upper Triassic. Fossils of a jaw fragment 110 million years old were found at Lightning Ridge, New South Wales. This means they originated up to 100 million years before the Metatheria or Eutheria, so they are definitely 'living fossils'.
Mosaic features
The egg-laying and the cloaca are primitive ('basal') features inherited from earlier synapsid tetrapods.
Electoral district of Myall Lakes
Myall Lakes is an electoral district of New South Wales. It was created in 1988.
Monotreme
Mosaic features
But the monotremes also have other features such as the production of milk, caring for their young in burrows, homeothermy and a neocortex in their brains. These are advanced ('derived') features which they share with placentals and marsupials. This mixture of basal and derived features is characteristic of the way different body parts often evolve at different rates. This is called mosaic evolution.
Electoral district of Myall Lakes
It is a conservative electorate and has only ever been held by the National Party. The current MP is Tanya Thompson.
Monotreme
Mosaic features
In mammals, a monophyletic group, there were a number of different lines living at the same time through the Upper Triassic to the Upper Cretaceous. Each of these lines had a mixture of basal and derived features until, at last, the placental mammals developed the whole suite of derived characters. This gave them a great advantage over the other groups wherever open competition occurred. However, because of their long seclusion in southern continents, some of the monotremes and marsupials have survived.
Survivors
There are two surviving families of monotremes, with five living species. They all live in Australia and New Guinea. People commonly know them as the platypus and the spiny anteaters. There is only one platypus that exists now, the duck-billed platypus. The four others are the spiny anteaters, or the echidna.

Pleading
Pleading is usually the first step in a lawsuit. This is when parties formally submit their claims and defenses. A complaint is the first pleading filed by a plaintiff which starts the lawsuit. A complaint lists the relevant allegations of fact which leads to one or more legal causes of action. It also has a prayer for relief and sometimes a statement of damages claimed. This is called an ad quod damnum clause. In some situations, a complaint is called a petition. In this case the party filing a complaint is called the petitioner and the other party is the respondent. In equity, sometimes called chancery, the initial pleading may be called either a petition or a bill of complaint in chancery.
Chinchorro mummies
The Chinchorro mummies are mummified remains of people from the South American Chinchorro culture, found in what is now northern Chile and southern Peru. They are the oldest examples of artificially mummified human remains. The oldest are 7,000 years old. The mummies continued to be made until about 1800 B.C.
They were first studied by the Andean archaeologist Max Uhle in 1914. Today, over 280 mummies have been found. About 120 of them are kept at the University of Tarapaca museum. Recently, scientist saw that some of the mummies are melting. This is because the increased humidity due to climate change has let microbes attack the skin.
Shell mounds and bone chemistry suggest that 90% of the diet of these people was seafood.
Techniques
Uhle categorized the types of mummification he saw into three categories: simple treatment, complex treatment, and mud-coated mummies. Since then, other archaeologists refined his classification and now mostly use the following classification of Chinchorro mummification: natural, black, red, mud-coated and bandage mummies. The two most common techniques used in Chinchorro mummification were the black mummies and the red mummies.

Studley Royal Park
Studley Royal Park (including the Ruins of Fountains Abbey) is a UNESCO-designated World Heritage Site in North Yorkshire, England. It has an area of 323 hectares (800 acres) and features an 18th-century landscaped garden, some of the largest Cistercian ruins in Europe, a Jacobean mansion, and a Victorian church designed by William Burges.
Fountains Abbey and Hall
Fountains Abbey was founded in 1132 by Benedictine monks who left St Mary's Abbey, York to follow the Cistercian order. After the end of the monasteries in 1539 by Henry VIII, the Abbey buildings and over 500 acres (200 ha) of land were sold by the Crown to a merchant named Sir Richard Gresham. The property was passed down through several generations of Sir Gresham's family. Between 1598 and 1604, it was sold to Stephen Proctor, who built Fountains Hall.
The hall is a Jacobean mansion, built partly with stone from the Abbey ruins. Fountains Abbey mill is the only 12th-century Cistercian cornmill left in the UK and the oldest 'intact' building on the estate.
Studley estate
From 1452 onwards, Studley Royal was inhabited by the Mallory family, most notably by MPs John Mallory and William Mallory. John Aislabie inherited the Studley estate from his elder brother in 1693. In 1966 the estate was bought by West Riding County Council and was taken over by the National Trust in 1983.
Studley Royal House
Studley Royal House (or Hall) is in the north-west corner of the park. Originally a medieval manor house, it has a main block with forward projecting wings. It burned down in 1716 and was rebuilt by John Aislabie. The building was destroyed by fire in 1946. A large stable block, built between 1728 and 1732, survived and is now a private house ( 54° 7'30.55"N 1°34'34.82"W ).
Recent history
In 1966, the estate was purchased by West Riding County Council and was acquired by the National Trust in 1983. The Abbey precinct is managed by English Heritage on behalf of the National Trust.
In 1986 the entire Park was designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. It is considered “a masterpiece of human creative genius, and an outstanding example of a type of building or architectural or technological ensemble or landscape which illustrates significant stages in human history”.
Since 1994 the estate has been within the Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Parliament of Great Britain
The parliament came into existence because the Parliament of England and the Parliament of Scotland ratified the Treaty of Union. Both parliaments made legislation (the Acts of Union 1707) to make a new unitary state with anew legislature. These acts of parliament created a new United Kingdom of Great Britain and dissolved (or ended) the separate English and Scottish parliaments. The British parliament met in the old home of the Parliament of England, in the old Palace of Westminster, in the City of Westminster near the City of London. This parliament lasted nearly a century, until the Act of Union 1800 merged the separate Parliament of Great Britain and the Irish Parliament into a single Parliament of the United Kingdom. It became effective 1 January 1801, the same date the kingdom of Ireland joined with Great Britain to form the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland.

Pliny's Comedy and Tragedy villas
Pliny's Comedy and Tragedy villas were two Roman villas owned by Pliny the Younger in the 1st century. They were on the shores of Lake Como in northern Italy. Pliny had several villas on Lake Como. He wrote to his friend Voconius Romanus that the Comedy villa and the Tragedy villa were his two favorites. In Italy, the villas are called Villa Commedia and Villa Tragedia. In Italian, "commedia" means "comedy" and "tragedia" means "tragedy".
In his letter to Voconius Romanus Pliny also wrote that the Tragedy villa was on a hill above the lake but that the Comedy villa was right on the water's edge. Their names come from the theatre of ancient Greece and Rome. Pliny said that the villa on the hill was like the actors in tragedies who wore platform boots. He named that villa "Tragedy". The villa down by the water was like the actors in comedies who wore flat slippers. He named that villa "Comedy". Both villas were destroyed long ago. No one is sure exactly where they stood.
Most people think that the Tragedy villa was in Bellagio, a small town on Lake Como. People are less sure where the Comedy villa was. The historian Paolo Giovio (1483-1552) thought that by the 16th century the Comedy villa was under the water of Lake Como near the village of Lenno. The geographer Abraham Ortelius (1527–1598) also wrote that the Comedy villa was in Lenno. But in 1876 a Roman mosaic floor and many Roman coins were found in Lierna, another small town on Lake Como. Many people there now think that the mosaic floor was part of the Comedy villa. In the early 20th century the French geographer Élisée Reclus wrote that Lierna was the site of one of Pliny's villas, but he did not say which one.
In 1751 John Boyle, 5th Earl of Orrery, published his English translation of Pliny's letters. The letter to Voconius Romanus describing the Comedy and Tragedy villas was illustrated with an imaginary picture of the Comedy villa drawn by Samuel Wale. The art historian Pierre de la Ruffinière du Prey, has said that the villa in Wale's drawing looks like Alexander Pope's villa on the River Thames in London. Alexander Pope was a friend of John Boyle. Pliny's own description of the Comedy villa in his letter said that its terrace was gently curved like the shore of the lake. He could fish directly from his bedroom window. He said that lying in his bed at the Comedy villa was like lying in a fishing boat on the lake.

Johannes Vermeer or Jan Vermeer (baptised 31 October 1632, died December 1675) was a Dutch Baroque painter. He spent his life in the town of Delft. Vermeer came from a Protestant family but he married a Catholic, named Catherina Bolnes, in April 1653. They had eleven children.
Vermeer mainly painted people in daily life. He painted people in detail and used rich colors. He kept the backgrounds simple. This contrast makes the viewer focus on the main point.
He used perspective technique to draw lines from one dot on the canvas. He used this technique on his 17 paintings. Those paintings have a little dot which may be used for perspective.
Flying fish
Flying fish are marine oceanic fishes of the family Exocoetidae. They are over 50 species, and they live worldwide in warm waters. They can glide in the air just above the water. They are all small, with a maximum length of about 45 cm (18 inches), and have winglike, rigid fins and an unevenly forked tail.
Johannes Vermeer
Vermeer’s painted women often wear blue clothes. This color blue is made from a natural mineral called lapis lazuli.
There is no self portrait of Jan Vermeer. His face may be in some other paintings, especially The Art of Painting (De Schilderkunst) and The Procuress (De Koppelaarste), but there is no proof that the man is Vermeer.
Flying fish
They do not fly actively: their fins do not flap. What they do is speed towards the surface and keep on going. When they leave the water they glide, sometimes for a surprising distance. It is generally thought to be an adaptation which helps them escape predators.

Her role as Renesmee earned her a Young Artist Award for Best Supporting Young Actress in a Feature Film.
Flying fish
The glides are usually up to 30 - 50 m in length. Some have been observed soaring for hundreds of metres using the updraft on the leading edges of waves. The fish can also make a series of glides, each time dipping the tail into the water to produce forward thrust. The longest recorded series of glides, with the fish only periodically dipping its tail in the water, was for 45 seconds.
Mackenzie Foy
Mackenzie Foy was born in Los Angeles.
Flying fish
It has been suggested that the genus Exocoetus is on an evolutionary borderline between flight and gliding. It flaps its enlarged pectoral fins when airborne, but still seems only to glide, as there is no hint of a power stroke.
Orienteering
where people run around an area to certain control points given on a map. There are lots of types of orienteering and the most popular type in Britain and the US is called Foot Orienteering. In orienteering people use a special map which shows where they have to go and in what order. People are timed and the person who is quickest wins. The word Orienteering comes from orientering, which is a word that comes from Sweden.
Johannes Vermeer
When Vermeer died his family had financial troubles, and after his death many of his paintings were sold at auction.
Orienteering
Orienteering is developed by International Orienteering Federation (IOF).
IOF recognizes the following types of orienteering:
History
Orienteering started in Sweden. It was meant to get people in the army to get ready for war. The first large orienteering event was when 220 people went orienteering in a place near Stockholm.
There are now orienteering groups for 67 countries.
Foot-Orienteering
Foot-Orienteering is one of the IOF recognised orienteering types. The athlete covers the distance of his course only using his feet.
The IOF organises World Orienteering Championships (WOC) every year and the European Orienteering Championships once every two years. The first WOC was held in 1966 in Finland. Only 10 nations took part in the first WOC.
Ski-Orienteering

Mountain bike orienteering
Mountain bike orienteering or MTBO that you can say is a sport where you cycle through the forest on small paths and trying to find the controls.
Eleaticism
Eleaticism was a way of thinking about the world that some ancient Greek people had. They lived in a place called Elea, which is now in Italy. They thought that everything that exists is really one thing, and that thing is called Being. Being does not change or move or have parts. It is always the same and always whole. They also thought that we can know Being by using our reason, not by looking at things or feeling them. They said that what we see and feel is not real, but only an illusion. Some of the most famous Eleatic thinkers were Parmenides, Zeno, and Melissus. They wrote poems and arguments to explain their ideas.
Brother Rat and a Baby
Brother Rat and a Baby is a 1940 American comedy movie directed by Ray Enright. It stars Priscilla Lane, Wayne Morris, Jane Bryan, Eddie Albert, Jane Wyman, and Ronald Reagan. It is a sequel to Brother Rat.
Eleaticism
History
Eleaticism was a way of thinking that started in the 5th century BC in ancient Greece. It was named after a place called Elea, where some of the thinkers lived. Elea was a town in southern Italy, near the sea. The first and most famous Eleatic thinker was Parmenides. He wrote a poem about his ideas. He had two students, Zeno and Melissus, who also wrote about Eleaticism. They tried to support Parmenides’ ideas with different arguments. Eleaticism was different from other ways of thinking at that time. It challenged the ideas of people like Xenophanes, Heraclitus, and Pythagoras. Eleaticism also influenced later thinkers like Plato and Aristotle.
Flying fish
The earliest known flying fish were in the Middle Triassic.

Eleaticism
Key principles
Eleaticism was based on the idea that there is only one thing that is real and true, and that is Being. Being is something that does not change, move, or have parts. It is always the same and always whole. Everything else that we see or feel is not real, but only an illusion. Eleaticism also said that we can know Being by using our reason, not by using our senses. Reason tells us what is true and clear, while senses tell us what is false and confusing. Eleaticism also said that Being, thought, and expression are the same thing. This means that what we think and say must be about Being, and nothing else.

Battle of Shiloh
Background
Grant wanted to capture the city of Corinth, Mississippi, next. But his superior, Henry W. Halleck, didn't want Grant to go any further south until other Union soldiers joined him. So Grant moved his army to a place called Pittsburg Landing, which was on the Tennessee River. There was a church near the landing called Shiloh Church. His army stayed there for several weeks.
General Albert Sidney Johnston commanded the Confederates. Johnston's second-in-command was P. G. T. Beauregard. Beauregard came up with a plan to recapture western Tennessee. Confederate soldiers from all over the Western theater gathered in Corinth. Then, starting on April 3rd, they marched north toward Grant's army. The Confederate Army was ready to attack on the morning of the 6th.
Complaint
In some jurisdictions, specific types of criminal cases may also be started by the filing of a complaint. This is also called a criminal complaint or felony complaint. All criminal cases are prosecuted in the name of the governmental authority. This is the same authority whose criminal laws were broken and who enforces criminal statutes. The government is sometimes called the state, the People or the Crown (in Commonwealth realms). In the United States, the complaint is often associated with misdemeanor charges presented by the prosecutor without the grand jury process. In most US jurisdictions, the document presented to and authorized by a grand jury is called an indictment.

Freedom of the press
Freedom of the press is a promise by a government not to punish journalists (and other people who report the news) for doing their job. It is an idea like freedom of speech: it lets people express their opinions or beliefs. Many countries have laws or constitutional amendments protecting freedom of the press. The word "press" in the phrase comes from the printing press.
Restrictions
Like with freedom of speech, freedom of the press does not protect everything that a journalist writes. A journalist can be sued for libel, which is publishing false and damaging claims about a person. Publishing copyrighted material is not legal in many countries. Writing about state secrets, like military plans, weapon designs, or other classified information is almost always illegal.

Acorn squash (Cucurbita pepo var. turbinata), also called pepper squash or Des Moines squash, is a winter squash with distinctive longitudinal ridges on its exterior and sweet, yellow-orange flesh inside.

Telefe Noticias
Telefe Noticias is the news unit of the Argentine television network Telefe. It is responsible for the production of four newscasts, a web portal and pages on social networks. It covers both Argentine and international news, along with live coverage, special reports and specialist analysis.
On March 7, 2022, Telefe Noticias renewed its graphics, its studio and its musical curtain.
History
In 1976, the year in which the military dictatorship calling itself the Argentine National Reorganization Process began, the channel was administered by the Argentine Air Force. With this, the quality of the news takes on a more officialist tone than it had before, but stronger due to censorship and the absence of freedom of expression promulgated by the de facto government.
Reprivatization (1990)
On January 15, 1990, after the tender for the privatization of Channel 11 in Buenos Aires, which would be renamed Telefe, the newscast changed its name again, first to simply First Edition and Second Edition; and later to Telefe Noticias on July 30, 1990. In 1991 the extra edition was broadcast late at night for coverage of the Gulf War.
In 1993, the information direction of Telefe decided to launch a new news channel, which it called "Red de Noticias" and would compete with the Artear Todo Noticias signal. With this, Telefe Noticias concentrated the most important news and in the satellite signal other journalistic programs that would complement the information. Journalists such as Rosario Lufrano, Fanny Mandelbaum, Ulises Lencina, Laly Cobas, Carlos Asnaghi, Guillermo Barletta and Amalia Rosas, manage to consolidate themselves in the newscasts of both channels.
However, in 1998, Red de Noticias ceased its broadcasts due to low audience levels, despite the fact that some of the journalists who were fired, such as Mandelbaum, Lufrano, Lencina, Cobas and Asnaghi, denounced censorship by the company.
Reduction of editions (1999-2002)
On April 5, 1999, after the closure of Red de Noticias and the layoffs, the central edition (Second edition) of the news program was canceled despite measuring an average of 20 audience points per day. In this way, only one broadcast of the shipment remained on the air, at 12:00. The reasons for the closure would have been for political reasons, since in that same year there were general presidential elections.
However, three years later, after the economic crisis in Argentina in 2001 and the successive changes in the national government, the evening edition resurfaced on August 12, 2002, now led by Rodolfo Barili and Cristina Pérez. Omar Fajardo reinforces the first noon edition led by Jorge Jacobson and Paula Trapani.
Diario de Medianoche (2003-2017)
As of 2003, in addition to the noon and evening editions already normalized, a third began to be broadcast at midnight, called at that time Diario de Guerra (War Diary). The program had a short duration of about 10 to 15 minutes and focused especially on the Iraq War. It was presented by the same journalists as in the central edition: Rodolfo Barili and Cristina Pérez.
Months later, as the general national elections approached, the news program went from being called Diario de Guerra (War Diary) to Diario de elecciones (Elections Diary), now dedicated entirely to the candidates. But in 2004 it also began to deal with other types of news, nationally and internationally, with which it again changed its name to Diario de Medianoche (Midnight Diary), consolidating itself in that time slot.
2010s
After 13 years in front of the news, the journalist Jorge Jacobson, retires from the program in September 2010; he is replaced by Adrián Puente, an event that occurred on October 11 of that year, when Telefe Noticias also made a change of graphics and studio.
