The Shape of Water

***The Shape of Water*** is a 2017 American fantasy drama movie directed by Guillermo del Toro and written by del Toro and Vanessa Taylor. The movie stars Sally Hawkins, Michael Shannon, Richard Jenkins, Doug Jones, Michael Stuhlbarg, and Octavia Spencer. It is set in Baltimore in 1962, the plot is about a mute custodian at a high-security government laboratory who becomes friends with a captured humanoid-amphibian creature.

Many critics declared _The Shape of Water_ del Toro's best movie since _Pan's Labyrinth_, praising in particular Hawkins's performance.

The movie won two Golden Globes for Best Director and Best Original Score. At the 71st British Academy Film Awards, the movie received 12 nominations, winning Best Movie. The movie won the Academy Award for Best Picture in 2018.

_The Shape of Water_ began a limited release in two theaters in New York City on December 1, 2017, before expanding on December 8, 2017, and has grossed $34 million.
Ichthyovenator

***Ichthyovenator*** was a meat-eating theropod dinosaur. It was from the Early Cretaceous, about 113 to 125 million years ago. Its fossils were found in Laos in 2010. _Ichthyovenator_ was a spinosaurid, they were crocodile-like dinosaurs that ate fish.

It is one of three spinosaurids found in Asia, the other two are Siamosaurus, and "Sinopliosaurus" fusuiensis.

## Discovery and naming

The first parts of the skeleton were found in 2010. They include: One rib, part of the animal's backbones (or vertebra), and most hip bones. They did not find the skull.

The only known species is _Ichthyovenator laosensis._ It was named and described by Ronan Allain and his colleagues in 2012. It was found in the Grès supérieurs Formation.

The name _Ichthyovenator_ comes from the Greek word for "fish" and the Latin word for "hunter", The name refers to the fact that it ate fish. The species name is _laosensis_, because it lived in what is now Laos.

While _Ichthyovenator_ was being described, paleontologists were still digging up more of its bones.

Ronan Allain was one of _Ichthyovenator's_ original describers. In 2014, he mentioned that more of _Icthyovenator's_ skeleton was dug up in 2012. He wrote this in the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology. These new bones include: several teeth, a hip bone, most neck bones, and a few back and tail bones. The description of the new bones has not been officially published.

In 2015, some of _Ichthyovenator's_ bones were compared to the ones of _Sigilmassasaurus. Sigilmassasaurus_ is another spinosaurid.

## Description

Paleontologists estimate _Ichthyovenator_ was about  long. That's about as big as Baryonyx, one of its close relatives.

It had a half-meter sail or hump on its back, similar to _Suchomimus_, or _Spinosaurus_. Ichthyovenator's sail was unusual because it was split in two at the hips. Scientists don't know why it was like that.

## Classification

_Ichthyovenator_ was first classified as a spinosaurid, inside the subfamily baryonychinae. This is the same subfamily that includes _Baryonyx_ and _Suchomimus_.

In 2014 it was found that _Ichthyovenator_ was part of the subfamily spinosaurinae instead.  This was because of specific features on its teeth, and because its backbones look much like the ones of _Sigilmassasaurus_.

Some sources say _Ichthyovenator_ might not have been a spinosaurid. They say it may have been a sail-backed carcharodontosaurid, and that it was related to _Concavenator_. But this hypothesis has not been published in an academic place.

The diagram below is called a cladogram. It shows how _Ichthyovenator_ is related to other dinosaurs in its family tree. This cladogram is by Allain _et al._ (2012):

Ren Renfa and his workers built the water gate on the Wusong River around 1300 during the Yuan Dynasty. Today, Suzhou Creek is small and less important than the Huangpu River, but it used to be bigger and more important for all the cities between Suzhou and the East China Sea. Dirt and sand in the river ("silt") slowly made it narrower and narrower. People built the water gate to help stop and wash away some of the dirt. The river changed its path to the south, the old gate became covered with dirt, and people forgot where it was.

Workers found the water gate in May 2001 while they were building new apartment buildings in the area. Once they understood that the stone their machines hit was a very old building, archaeologists came to look at it. The archaeologists started digging in January 2004 and finished in May 2006.

Workers started building the museum in November 2009 and finished on December 31st, 2012.

Đổi mới

**Đổi mới ** is the official title given to the current economic system in the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. It is described as a multisectoral market economy, where the state sector plays a crucial role in managing economic development with the possible long-term goal of developing socialism.

The socialist-oriented market economy is a product of Đổi mới economic reforms, which led to the replacement of the centrally planned economy with a market-based mixed economy based on state-owned industry. These reforms were implemented to allow Vietnam to participate in the global market economy.

Đổi mới-economic reforms were initiated by the Communist Party of Vietnam in 1986 during the party's sixth national congress. These reforms allowed private ownership of small businesses together with state-owned and collectively-owned companies. In addition, these reforms also played a greater role in market forces in order to coordinate economic activity between companies and public authorities.

United States federal government shutdown of 2018

A shutdown of the United States federal government began at midnight EST on Saturday, January 20, 2018, after a failure to pass a legislation funding bill for government operations and agencies and ended on Monday, January 22, 2018.

The shutdown was caused from disputes over the status of protection of persons affected by the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) immigration policy, and therefore whether those covered under the program should face deportation. There was also a dispute over whether funding should be funded towards building a Mexico–United States border wall, a keystone policy during Donald Trump's presidential campaign.

This is the first shutdown in United States history to occur while both chambers of Congress as well as the White House are controlled by the same party (in this case, the Republican party). The 2018 shutdown began when the Senate failed to approve a House-passed bill to keep the government open. The shutdown began on the first anniversary of Donald Trump taking office.
Spinosauridae

***Spinosauridae*** (meaning 'spined lizards') is a family of carnivorous theropod dinosaurs from the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods. They are unique among other meat-eating dinosaurs from their more water-based lifestyle, which involved a diet of mostly fish. Spinosaurid fossils have been found all over the world, including Asia, South America, Europe and Africa

## Description

Spinosaurids had longer arms than most theropods, the claw on the first finger was usually the largest. They evolved jaws like those of crocodiles, and their teeth were long and cone-shaped, made to trap prey in their mouths instead of tearing them apart. Because of this, their teeth usually did not have the strong knife-like edges (called serrations) of a lot of other meat-eating dinosaurs.

The family contains Spinosaurus, the first spinosaurid discovered, and the largest carnivorous dinosaur we know of. Paleontologists suggest it might have reached up to 15 meters (49 ft.) in length.

## Paleobiology

A study made in 2010 by Roman Amiot and his colleagues found that spinosaurids had very semiaquatic (living partly in water, and partly on land) lifestyles, this means they lived in habitats like those of hippopotamuses, crocodiles, and turtles, making them very unusual compared to other theropods. It also means they could exist at the same time and place as other large predators without competing for food. For example; Carcharodontosaurus, which lived at the same time as Sigilmassasaurus and Spinosaurus, did not need to fight with either of those animals for prey; those spinosaurids ate fish, while Carcharodontosaurus was on land most of the time, hunting smaller dinosaurs.

## Classification

The family "Spinosauridae" was named by the German paleontologist Ernst Stromer in 1915, he was the one that discovered the first genus in the group, _Spinosaurus_. And as scientists discovered more fossils of its close relatives, the family was eventually split into two subfamilies: Baryonychinae, and Spinosaurinae. This was done because of differences in the anatomy of their skulls and teeth.

This is a cladogram made in 2017 showing the relationships between different spinosaurids inside of megalosauroidea.
