Aglaophyton is a genus of early Devonian fossil land plants. Its fossils have been found in the Rhynie chert. Only the sporophyte generation have been found as fossils. Only one species has been found, "Aglaophyton major". Relationship to other plants. "Aglaophyton" was at first thought to be a species of the vascular plant genus "Rhynia" which lived at the same time. Later it was discovered that it is not really a vascular plant. It had vascular tissue, but the cells had thin walls. It might therefore be a missing link between the Bryophytes and "Horneophyton" and the vascular plants like "Rhynia". In 2004, Crane et al. published a cladogram which has "Aglaophyton" as the sister group of the vascular plants.

"Rhopalostylis sapida", the nikau () is a palm tree endemic to New Zealand. It is the only palm tree to grow there. It also does not grow naturally anywhere else in the world. "Nīkau" is a Māori word. In the languages of the Pacific tropics, it means the leaves of a coconut palm.  The Maori had many uses for the nīkau palm. The bases of the inner leaves and the young flowers were eaten raw or cooked. Food was wrapped in the leaves for cooking. The old tough leaves were used to make baskets, floor rugs and waterproof thatched roofs for buildings. Natural location. The nīkau palm lives along the coast and lowland forests on the North Island and on the South Island. It lives where there is humidity. It is the world's most southern palm at 44° 18'S latitude. Description. The nīkau grows tall with a wide, green trunk which has grey-green leaf scars. The trunk is topped by a smooth, bulging crown of fronds (leaves). The flowers are coloured lilac to pink. The fruit is circular or oblong and is red when ripe. The nīkau has flowers between November and April (summer). The fruit ripens from February to November and is a favourite food for the native wood pigeon. Caring for the palm. The nīkau makes an excellent potted plant, and is quite healthy. It is slow-growing. It grows easily from a seed if the fruit is soaked in water for a few days and then gently scrubbed to remove the skin. The seed will then germinate in sealed plastic bags in part shade. Later, they can be planted in deep pots.  The nīkau lives well in cool temperatures. In New Zealand, it does not get exposed to freezing weather. It can survive a few degrees of frost. It is hurt most by a sudden large drop in temperature even above freezing. It does well in areas with a mild Mediterranean climate.

The Great Stink was in central London in July and August 1858. During hot weather the smell of untreated faeces was overpowering.

The bad air was thought to transmit contagious diseases. There were three outbreaks of cholera before the Great Stink was blamed on the problems with the river. A proposal from the civil engineer Joseph Bazalgette for sewage treatment was finally accepted.

Hybrid vigour (or hybrid vigor), also known as heterosis in genetics, happens when the child of two different varieties of organism is more fit or vigorous than either of its parents. The causes of this effect are not well known and there are several proposed causes. Heterosis is important to modern agriculture and the production of "F1 Hybrid cultivars", which are the first generation of a cross of 2 carefully selected varieties. Despite these varieties being more expensive to produce, the cost is often outweighed by the increased vigour of the variety. By keeping the two parents secret, or by patenting the combination, private crop breeding companies have an easy way to make money off their efforts. A complementary idea, Inbreeding depression, is when an inbred population is less fit and/or less fertile as compared to the individual parents. Some amount of Hybrid Vigour is the result of the suppression of inbreeding depression, but not all. Animal breeders have known about this phenomenon since the 18th century, and Darwin investigated it in detail with plants. On the other hand, when two parents are from widely different populations, such as different closely related species or subspecies, the child may be less fit than either of its parents, known as outbreeding depression. Both effects can occur at the same time, for example, Mules, the hybrid child of a father donkey and mother horse, are infertile due to an inability to evenly split its chromosomes into gamates (Mules have 63 chromosomes, an odd number), but exhibit greater strength and endurance than either parent, making mules completely unfit in the wild but highly valued (arguably "fit") in some human societies.  When a population is small or inbred, it tends to lose genetic diversity, giving the population a more limited ability to adapt to a changing enviroment through natural selection. This is usually caused either by a population bottleneck or by poor species fitness causing a diminishing population size. Diverse populations as a group generally have more "potential" to survive selection events than less diverse populations as there are more phenotypes that may be more fit in the new enviroment compared to the overall population, but this is
India "Willie" Bush (July 13, 1990 – January 4, 2009) was the pet cat of U.S. President George W. Bush and his family while he was in the White House.

She is shown in the "Barneycam" videos made by the White House staff at Christmas. She first starred in "Where in the White House is Miss Beazley?", where she was called by her nickname, "Willie".

India (as "Willie") was shown in the March 2008 "Architectural Digest", in the East Sitting Hall of the White House. Controversy. There was controversy reported in the news in India. Some people were upset with the cat's name. In July 2004, demonstrations were held in the southern Keralian city of Thiruvananthapuram.

India had been named for a baseball player, Rubén Sierra. He was nicknamed "El Indio" while playing for the Texas Rangers, when Bush owned the baseball team. The name had been given to the family cat by Barbara, one of the Bush's daughters. Death. India died at the
