A Pride event
**Pride Month** is a thematic month where special attention is paid to the emancipation and acceptance of gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, *queer*, or questioning (LGBTQ) people.

History
-------

In the United States, June is *LGBTQI+ Pride Month*, given the Stonewall riots that took place in New York City in late June 1969, which was a huge boost to the LGBTI+ civil and liberation movements. LGBTQ+ marches and parades have taken place in many American cities since the 1970s, which were followed in many Western countries, although not always in late June.

Since 2012, the Google Search has displayed a rainbow-colored decor that changes annually for LGBT-related searches during Pride Month.

Since 1999, Democratic Presidents Clinton, Obama, and Biden have officially declared *Pride Month* in June*.* Republican President Trump did this in 2019 via Twitter. During this month, many American organizations, institutions and companies are paying attention to LGBT+ issues, including through public and *marketing* campaigns. However, this can also involve queerbaiting, pinkwashing, and rainbow capitalism.

Despite June being Pride Month, in the United Kingdom many pride events are held in July, August and September.
**George Formby** OBE (born in Wigan, real name **George Hoy Booth**; 26 May 1904 – 6 March 1961) was an English actor, singer-songwriter and comedian. His films of the 1930s and 1940s were very popular. On stage, screen and record he sang light, comic songs. He played the ukulele or banjolele. He was the highest-paid entertainer in the United Kingdom.

His father was George Formby Sr, who was also a comedian and singer. He was called "The Wigan Nightingale". He died when his son was 17. 

Formby went on the music hall stage when his father died. He carried on his father's act. In 1924 he married Beryl Ingham. She was also in music hall and she became his manager. He started recording songs in 1926 and, from 1934, he made movies. In the movies he played gormless Lancastrian innocents who would beat a villain, and win the love of an attractive middle-class girl. His songs often had ambiguous sexual content which he sung with a toothy grin and air of innocence  His song *When I'm Cleaning Windows* was banned by the BBC in 1936. The director general John Reith said "if the public wants to listen to Formby singing his disgusting little ditty, they'll have to be content to hear it in the cinemas, not over the nation's airwaves". He later sang it before the King and Queen at the Royal Variety Performance. It was unbanned.

During the Second World War he worked all over the world for the Entertainments National Service Association. In his first film of 1940, *Let George Do It!*, In a dream he goes to a Nuremberg Rally and punches Hitler. It was very popular and was shown in Russia and the USA. 

He recorded more than 200 songs. 1946 song "*With My Little Stick of Blackpool Rock*" was one of the most successful. It was also considered rude and a BBC manager in 1946 said "We have no record that 'With My Little Stick of Blackpool Rock' is banned. We do however know, and so does Formby, that certain lines in the lyric must not be broadcast".

He is the fifth Green Lantern of Earth, a powerful member of the Green Lantern Corps, serving as an honor guard, and is considered the greatest lantern. Originally given his power ring by Ganthet of the Guardians of the Universe after his predecessor Hal Jordan destroyed the Corps during Emerald Twilight, he was the last surviving torchbearer for many years until their return. The sentient willpower entity Ion possessed him and gave him incredible powers for a period of his career, but he was later briefly possessed by the fear entity Parallax as well.

**Vulture crown** is a crown that the great royal wives and important priestesses in ancient Egypt wore. It was connected with the vulture goddess Nekhbet. It looked like a vulture with wings hanging down on the sides.The crown was a symbol of protection. Sometimes the hat had another snake called the Uraeus on it too. This snake represented a goddess called Wadjet.

History
-------

In the beginning, the vulture crown was only shown in pictures of goddesses. But in the Fifth Dynasty, queens began to wear this crown all the time in their pictures.

The reason why queens wore the vulture crown was because the vulture is a symbol of motherhood. In ancient Egyptian, the word for "mother" is written with a picture of a vulture called mwt.

As Nekhbet was a goddess who protected people, the vulture crown was connected with her. This made sense because the king was seen as a Horus, and the queen's role was seen as a protector.

One of the first queens to wear the vulture crown was Khentkaus Ii. In the New Kingdom, the vulture on the top of the crown was sometimes changed by a snake called uraeus.
**Irwin Allen Ginsberg** (June 3, 1926 – April 5, 1997) was an American poet and author. He was part of the Beat Generation movement of poets in the 1950s. He was a friend of writers Jack Kerouac and William S. Burroughs, and later made friends with musicians Bob Dylan, Donovan, John Lennon and Yoko Ono, and many other celebrities.

Ginsberg's most famous work was called *Howl.* It was a long poem about the social conditions of the United States in the 1950s. It began with the words "I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness." It went on to describe the frustration felt by many Americans, young people and minorities in particular. There were problems in the country, such as prejudice and intolerance, that needed to be spoken about. Ginsberg published the poem, and also performed it at public poetry readings.

A few people did not like *Howl*, or the graphic language Ginsberg used. They tried to have *Howl* banned, and they wanted Ginsberg to be prosecuted (given a court trial, then either fined or put in jail). Ginsberg went to trial, and the judge decided *Howl* was an important work, and told the truth about America at the time. The judge rejected the ban and cleared Ginsberg, who could then continue to publish and perform the poem.

Ginsberg became involved in social causes through his work, and through the famous people he met. He grew up in the Jewish faith, but later became a Buddhist. He was a homosexual, and his longtime partner was another poet, Peter Orlovsky. He also had a long relationship with Neal Cassady, who appeared as "N.C. secret hero of these poems" in *Howl*.

Death
-----

Ginsberg died in 1997 of liver cancer.
**Vladimir Nabokov** (April 22, 1899 – July 2, 1977) was a Russian-American writer. He wrote his first books in Russian, and after he moved to the United States, he wrote in English. His most famous book is *Lolita*, but others have also become famous, such as *Pnin*, *Pale Fire*, and *Ada or Ardor*.

Nabokov was born in Saint Petersburg, Russia, the first of five children. In 1919, he and his family went to Europe. In 1945, he became an American citizen. He died in Montreux, Switzerland.

Life
----

Nabokov's father was a lawyer and politician. As a child, Vladimir learned Russian, English, and French. After the October Revolution, the family moved a few times, but settled in Berlin in 1920. Two years later, his father was shot and killed by mistake, because he had blocked the person the gunman was trying to murder. His mother and sister moved to Prague, but Vladimir stayed in Berlin. He wrote for other Russians who had left Russia to live there. He met Véra Slonin, a woman from a Jewish-Russian family, in 1923. They married in 1925. In 1934, they had their only child, Dmitri.

In 1937, Nabokov started to look for another job. He left for France that year, and his family followed. They all fled to America in 1940, except his brother Sergei, who died in a Nazi concentration camp.

Butterflies
-----------

Nabokov was an expert on butterflies. As a child he had read books by entomologist Maria Sibylla Merian which he found in the attic of his family's country home in Vyra.

During the 1940s, he was a research fellow in zoology. He organized the butterfly collection of the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard University. His specialty was the tribe Polyommatini of the family Lycaenidae.

The genus *Nabokovia* was named after him in honor of this work, as were a number of butterfly and moth species (e.g. many species in the genera *Madeleinea* and *Pseudolucia* have names alluding to Nabokov or names from his novels). In 1967, Nabokov commented: "The pleasures and rewards of literary inspiration are nothing beside the rapture of discovering a new organ under the microscope or an undescribed species on a mountainside in Iran or Peru. It is not improbable that had there been no revolution in Russia, I would have devoted myself entirely to lepidopterology and never written any novels at all".

The **The Abstract House** or **La Casa Astratta** is a palace in Viale Beatrice d'Este 24, Milano, Italy in the historic center of Milan inside the luxurious Quadronno District, which collects artwork of the fifties.

The Palazzo La Casa Abstract was built by Carlo Perogalli and Attilio Mariani together with the painter Francesco Magnelli in 1952. Carlo Perogalli and Attilio Mariani completed the nearby building in Viale Beatrice d'Este 26 in 1952, while Giordano Forti and Camillo Magni in 1957 created the Palazzo Forti, making the whole area an open-air museum. The Abstract House of Viale Beatrice d'Este in Milan is the masterpiece of the Movement for Concrete Art.

The painter Francesco Magnelli, active in Paris, worked with the designers to lay out the facade. The same design is taken up in negative inside the entrance hall with an artistic inlay in the rubber floor with the aim of establishing a close relationship between the facade and the interior space. In the atrium a sculpture was created by Attilio Mariani.

From 1948 to 1958 for architects and artists, Milan became the city where they could experience a new conception of the relationships between the arts. The Palace shows how the concrete forms are not simply paintings applied to the walls of a building designed separately by another person, but are born and developed together with the architecture with which they identify. Perogalli also considers this creation one of the most original and significant in which "the synthesis of the arts ... is also notable for the strong chromatic component: the facade of the building has a cladding in white marble and blue ceramic tiles. The decoration is expressed both in the free composition and in the choice of colors on the facade.

*"The façade endowed with movement and plasticity for the protrusions of the balconies and bow windows that the chromatic play enhances: cladding in white marble, mirrors in black ceramic mosaic, balconies in blue ceramic mosaic."*

**María Eva Duarte de Perón** (May 7, 1919 – July 26, 1952) was the second wife of Argentine President Juan Perón. She was born in Los Toldos. She was the First Lady of Argentina from 1946 until she died and she served with her husband as an unofficial co-ruler of Argentina during those years. Before she died the Congress made her **Spiritual Leader of the Nation**. She was an actress before she married Perón.

Early life
----------

Eva grew up fairly poor and had wanted to become an actress since an early age. At sixteen, she left school and moved to Buenos Aires to pursue her dream of stardom. She got a job at a radio station there until she met Juan Perón at a charity concert held for the victims of the earthquake of San Juan in 1944. Soon, the two became very close and they were married on October 21, 1945. Eva was an active campaigner in Juan Perón's presidential campaign in 1946, and when he was elected, she continued to play an active government role.

Accomplishments
---------------

By the time of her death, she was one of the most powerful women, or maybe even the most powerful woman, in the world. She is known for her work in many charitable and feminist causes, and became an icon to many people in Argentina. Evita was President of the Peronist Women's Party, a big and powerful political party made up of women who supported the Peróns' party. She ran the Ministry of Labor and the Ministry of Health. She helped legalize divorce in Argentina, as well as playing a leading role in enacting women's suffrage in Argentina. The Maria Eva Duarte de Perón Welfare Foundation gave a lot of funds, goods and medicine to the poor. The poor liked Evita Perón a lot. Her life inspired a musical called *Evita* and a movie based on the musical called *Evita*. The movie starred Madonna.

Death
-----

Her cancer was detected during a hysterectomy in November 1951, but the doctors were encouraged by Juan Perón, to keep it to themselves in order to not influence the presidential campaign negatively. When she died of cervical cancer in Buenos Aires, her corpse was embalmed After her husband was overthrown in a coup d'état in 1955, her body was lost for almost 20 years, until it was found in Italy. It was brought back to Argentina and buried with her husband after he died in 1974. It was brought back by the President Isabel Perón, who was married to Juan Perón years after Eva's death. In memory of her life's work, a giant portrait on the front of Argentina's Social Development Ministry was unveiled on 26 July 2011, exactly 59 years after her death.
The ***Scarborough*** was one of six convict transport ships in the First Fleet. The First Fleet carried the convicts and soldiers to Australia to start a penal colony. The ships left England in May 1787 and arrived in Australia in January 1788. This was the start of European settlement of Australia. 

The *Scarborough* was a ship of 430 tons under the command of John Marshall. She was 111 ft (34 m) long and 30 ft (9 m) wide. The prison deck was very small and cramped. The height of the space was only 53 in (135 cm). The ship had a contract with the British Government to carry convicts. The owners were paid at a rate of 10 shillings per ton per month. They had to agree to keep the prisoners secure and in safe custody. After transporting the convicts to New South Wales, the *Scarborough* was under contract to work for the East India Company.

*Scarborough* left Australia 5 May 1788, and with the *Lady Penrhyn*, sailed to China. On 17 May 1788, she landed at Lord Howe Island for birds and vegetables, and got back to England on 15 June 1789.

Second Fleet
------------

*Scarborough* went back to New South Wales with the notorious Second Fleet. Alongside *Surprize* and *Neptune*, she sailed from England with 253 male convicts on 19 January 1790. Her captain was John Marshall and the surgeon was Augustus Jacob Beyer. She arrived at the Cape of Good Hope on 13 April 1790, and spent 16 days there, loading food and other items. She also picked up eight male convicts from HMS *Guardian* which had been wrecked after hitting an iceberg. She and *Neptune* were parted from *Surprize* in heavy weather and arrived at Port Jackson on 28 June, 160 days out from England. During the voyage, 73 convicts died (28%) and 96 (37%) were very sick when landed.

Other ships named Scarborough
-----------------------------

There were at least 4 British built ships named *Scarborough* in the eighteenth century. At least two of these were contracted to the English East India Co. for the far east trade. One of the *Scarborough*s was lost in the South China Sea on a shoal on 12 Sept 1784. All on board died and the shoal was then named Scarborough Shoal, lying at 15°11′N 117°46′E, recently the subject of a sovereignty dispute between China and Philippines. Another ship of the same name was built at Scarborough in 1782 of 430 tons but this is not the one lost on the Scarborough Shoal.

**Cyanides** are chemicals that contain the *cyano-group* C≡N. Organic compounds that contain the CN group are called nitriles. In that group a carbon atom has three chemical bonds to a nitrogen atom. The group is present in many substances. Those substances that can release the compound CN are very poisonous.

Certain bacteria, fungi and algae are able to produce cyanides. Cyanides are also found in certain foods or plants, such as cassava. The cyanides serve as a defense against being eaten by herbivores. 

In popular culture, cyanides are said to be very toxic. There are some cyanides that are, but others that are not. Prussian blue, a cyanide compound, is given as a treatment to poisoning with thallium and caesium, for example.

The poisons referred to are usually hydrogen cyanide (HCN), and the chemicals which are similar to it, like potassium cyanide (KCN), and sodium cyanide (NaCN). They are derivatives of hydrogen cyanide. The single most hazardous compound is hydrogen cyanide, which is a gas and kills by inhalation. cyanide smells like bitter almonds when near.

Antidote
--------

Hydroxocobalamin reacts with cyanide to form cyanocobalamin, which can be safely eliminated by the kidneys. This antidote kit is sold under the brand name *Cyanokit* and was approved by the U.S. FDA in 2006.

Ubangi River at the outskirts of Bangui.
The **Ubangi River**, also spelled **Oubangui**, is a river of Central Africa. It is the largest right-bank tributary of the Congo River. It begins where the Mbomou and Uele Rivers come together. It flows west, then bends to the southwest and passes through Bangui. Then the river flows south to the Congo at Liranga. The Ubangi's length is about 1,060 kilometres (660 mi). The Ubangi's drainage basin is about 772,800 square kilometres (298,400 sq mi). The basin includes parts of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Central African Republic, and Republic of Congo. 

Together with the Congo River, it important for transportation for river boats between Bangui and Brazzaville.

Some people want the water from the Ubangi to go to the Chari River. The Chari River empties into Lake Chad. They say this will help with fishing and make agriculture better.

Lehmann overturned the melodic theme that our planet's metallic core is entirely thawing liquid state state. She used maths to analyze the way energy released by earthquakes travels through the Earth. She discovered something eternally concealed from the naked eye thousands of miles below our feet, at its center, the Earth is solid. In fact,, it has a solid inner core and a liquid outer core. Lehmann is also remarkable in that she is one of the longest-lived scientists in history, living to 104 years of age. Her father, Alfred Georg Ludvik Lehmann, was a psychologist and her mother, Ida Sophie Torsleff, was a woman of the house. Both parents came from prominent families. Inge was a very shy girl who did not enjoy being in the spot. She continued to be shy throughout her long biography. She was shoal time metered at a buck private coeducational schooling called Faellesskolen which translates as shared school. The school was new: it had been founded when Inge was 5 years old by Hanna Adler, a wealthy woman.. Hanna Adler's new school was unusual in that male child and girls were treated identically, poring over the same topic and taking parting in the same sportsman and activities. The children were not disciplined as rigorously as in other schools of that meter. Inge Lehmann enjoyed her time at the Fællesskolen, but she was sometimes bored because she did not feel challenged enough by the schoolwork. In 1906, at age 18, she passed the entrance examination for Copenhagen University with a first rank mark. University Lehmann started freshman track in mathematics, chemistry and physics at the University of Copenhagen in 1907. She finally graduated in 1920. She then discovered the Earth’s Speciality with publishing.

The **University of London** is a university in London, England. It is a federal university made up of 31 affiliates. There are nineteen university institutions and twelve research institutes.

The headquarters of the university, Senate House, is in Malet Street in the Bloomsbury area of Camden. This is near University College London and the British Museum.

The University of London is the largest university in the UK by number of full-time students, with 135,090 campus-based students and over 45,000 in the University of London International Programmes. 

The constituent colleges are responsible for the teaching, the research or the individual students and staff of the constituent colleges; the university is not. The university is an administrative body responsible for standards, degree examinations and certification. 

The university was first established by a Royal Charter in 1836, which brought together in federation *London University* (now University College London) and *King's College* (now King's College London).

Graduates of the University of London may use the post-nominal letters 'Lond.' or 'Londin.' (both from *Londiniensis*) after their degree abbreviations.

The university's biggest colleges are Birkbeck, Goldsmiths, King's College London, the London Business School, Queen Mary, Royal Holloway, SOAS, LSE and UCL.

History
-------

*The London University* as drawn by Thomas Hosmer Shepherd and published in 1827/28. This was the original name of University College London, which still occupies the site.
Founded in 1836, the University at first comprised just two colleges. They were University College London (founded in 1826), which did not apply religious tests to its students, and King's College (founded in 1829), which admitted only members of the Church of England. Therefore, both University College and King's pre-date the University of London, which initially served solely as an examining body for the constituent colleges.

In 1858 the University expanded its role by offering the University of London International Programmes to candidates outside the colleges, the first of its kind in the country. A new headquarters at 6 Burlington Gardens, providing the university with exam halls and offices, was built to accommodate the new role. 

In 1878 the University became the first university in the UK to admit women on equal terms with men. Four female students obtained Bachelor of Arts degrees in 1880 and two obtained Bachelor of Science degrees in 1881, again the first in the country.
**Werakata National Park** is a national park in the east of the Australian state of New South Wales, 115 km north of Sydney, in the Hunter River region The park is divided into three parts, which are to the northeast, east and southeast of the city of Cessnock. 

South of the park is the separate *Werakata State Conservation Area*.

History
-------

Werakata National Park was opened on 26. February 1999 from a 1130 acres of *Cessnock State Forest* (State Forest No. 874) formed. On the 1st January 2003 came another 478 acres from the state forest, as well as the *Aberdare State Forest* (State Forest No. 981) with 531 hectares.

The *Werakata State Conservation Area* with 2257 hectare area was created in 2007.

The Hunter River area was inhabited by the Aboriginal countries of *Awabakal*, *Worimi*, *Wonnarua*, *Geawegal*, *Birripai* and *Darkinjung*, but little is known about their use of the land near what is now the national park after European settlement in the 19th century. In the 19th century, forestry was practiced and sawmills were built in and near today's park. Most of the wood was used to expand the mines in the area. In 1942, the Cessnock State Forest was established as a sanctuary, followed by the Aberdare State Forest in 1963. The logging continued until it was rededicated in the national park.

Flora and fauna
---------------

Before the establishment of the national park, it was found that the predominant eucalyptus species "Spotted Gum" (*Corymbia maculata*) was still underrepresented in the system of protected areas.

Various endangered animal species can also be found in the park.

Replica of the *Lighthouse of Alexandria*
The Hercules Tower, in A Coruña, Spain. It was probably built in the 2nd century, and is similar to the lighthouse of Alexandria.
The **Lighthouse of Alexandria**, or the ***Pharos***, was a tall tower built between 285 and 247 BCE. It was built on the island of Pharos in Alexandria, Egypt to serve as a lighthouse for sailors. The top of the tower had a mirror that reflected sunlight during the day; a fire was lit at night.

The word for "lighthouse" in some languages is *pharos* or its equivalent.

Construction
------------

Legend holds that Ptolemy I Soter would not allow Sostratus to put his name on the tower, but the architect left the following inscription on the base's walls:

> ΣΟΣΤΡΑΤΟΣ ΔΕΞΙΦΑΝΟΥ ΚΝΙΔΙΟΣ ΘΕΟΙΣ ΣΩΤΕΡΣΙΝ ΥΠΕΡ ΤΩΝ ΠΛΩΙΖΟΜΕΝΩΝ. (Sostratus of Cnidus, son of Dexiphanes, to the Gods protecting those upon the sea.)
> 
> 

These words were hidden under a layer of plaster, on top of which was chiseled another inscription honoring Ptolemy the king as builder of the Pharos. After centuries the plaster wore away, revealing the name of Sostratus, the son of Dexiphanes.

With a height estimated at between 115 and 145 meters (384 – 469 ft), it was among the tallest man-made structures on Earth for many centuries. It was identified as one of the Seven Wonders of the World by Antipater of Sidon. It was the third tallest building after the two Great Pyramids (of Khufu and Khafra). It was destroyed by earthquakes.

Recent archaeological research
------------------------------

Divers discovered remains of the lighthouse in fall 1994 on the floor of Alexandria's Eastern Harbour. Some of these remains were brought up and were lying at the harbour on public view at the end of 1995. An episode of the PBS television series *Nova* chronicled the discovery. Later satellite imaging has revealed further remains. It is possible to go diving and see the ruins.
**Time travel** is the idea of going back in time to the past or forward to the future. We always travel forward, to the future. Time travel to the past big fat duck eat meat*The Time Machine* (1895) by H. G. Wells was one of the first and most famous stories of time travel. Much later, the American movie "Back to the Future" tells a fictional story about a professor who builds a machine that can take people into the future or back in the past. 

The popular British TV program *Doctor Who* is about an alien who has adventures by time travelling in a space time machine. Another TV show about time travel is the series *Charmed*. Instead of using machines and science, this one uses magic to go to other times and places. Quantum Leap is another show which features "leaping" a form of time travel that allows a person to "relive events of another in history" it is similar to "Assassin's Creed" but in Quantum leap you can actually change history not just merely relive and shape it.

Some series that are not mainly about time travel have episodes about it, for example *Star Trek* and *Stargate* and *The Flash*.

**Dangerous goods** (**DG** in short) are substances that when transported pose risk to health, safety, property and the environment. Certain dangerous goods pose risk even when not being transported. These are known as **hazardous materials** (**HAZMAT** or **hazmat** for short).

Hazardous material is often subject under chemical regulations. Examples of dangerous goods are biological hazards, flammable, explosive material, corrosive substances and allergens.

The packing groups
------------------

Doublewall corrugated fiberboard box with dividers for shipping four bottles of corrosive liquid, UN 4G, certified performance for Packing Group III 
Packing groups are used for the purpose of determining the degree of protective packaging required for dangerous goods during transportation.

* Group I: great danger, and most protective packaging required. Some combinations of different classes of dangerous goods on the same vehicle or in the same container are forbidden if one of the goods is Group I.
* Group II: medium danger
* Group III: minor danger among regulated goods, and least protective packaging within the transportation requirement

The training
------------

Permit cards or licenses that are used with hazmat training must be shown if requested by officials.

By country/region
-----------------

### Canada

The transportation of dangerous goods (hazardous material) in Canada by road is normally a province jurisdiction. The federal government in Canada have jurisdiction over air, most marine and most rail transport. The federal government acting centrally created the federal transportation of dangerous goods and regulations. Creation of the federal regulations was coordinated under Transport Canada. The hazard classification is based under the UN model.

### Europe

The European Union passed several directives and regulations. They did so for avoiding wide-spreading and for restricting the use of hazardous substances. The most important ones were the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive and the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals.

The European law clearly tells the difference between the law of dangerous goods and the law of hazardous material. The earlier refers mainly to the transport of the respective goods. That includes interim storage, if caused by the transport. The latter refers to requirements of storage (which would include the warehousing) and usage of hazardous materials. The difference is very important, because different directives and orders of European law are applied.

### The United States

For reasons involving increases in terrorism just after the September 11 attacks in 2001, funding for greater hazmat-handling went up across the United States. It was recognized that flammable, poisonous and explosive material could be used for further terrorist attacks.

The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulates hazardous materials, for they may impact a community and an environment.
Schneider in 1973Schneider in 1973
**Romy Schneider** (September 23, 1938 - May 29, 1982) was an Austrian actress. She was from Vienna. She had German and French citizenship. She had an international career, but worked mostly in France.

Life and career
---------------

She was born **Rosemarie Albach-Retty** in Vienna, Austria. Her parents were Wolf Albach-Retty (1906-1967) and Magda Schneider (1909-1996), both famous actors in Austria and Germany. 

After her parents divorced in 1945, she was raised by her mother. With her mother's help, and using her mother's family name, she started acting in 1953. She quickly became very popular through Ernst Marischka's trilogy called *Sissi*, about the early life of Empress Elisabeth of Austria.

In 1958, she appeared in the movie *Christine*, opposite French actor Alain Delon. They became engaged and she moved to France with him.

Schneider worked with directors such as Luchino Visconti in *Boccacio* (1961), Orson Welles in *The Trial* (1962), and Otto Preminger in *The Cardinal* (1963).

After her breakup with Delon in 1964, she went back to Germany. There she married stage director Harry Meyen. They had a son named David (1966-1981). 

She acted with Delon again in the movie *La piscine* in 1969. The rest of her career was mostly in France. Notable movies included; *Les choses de la vie* (1970), *Max et les ferrailleurs* (1971), *Le trio infernal* (1974), *Le vieux fusil* (1975), *La banquière* (1980), *La passante du Sans-Souci* (1981). 

Her later years were plagued by personal tragedies. She gave birth to a stillborn child in 1976 by her second husband Daniel Biasini. Her first husband Harry Meyen killed himself in 1979. Her son David accidentally died impaled while trying to go over a fence in 1981. That same year she had a kidney operation. 

She was found dead in her Paris apartment at the age of 43, probably from a heart attack, although no autopsy was performed. She left a daughter Sarah Biasini (born 1977, by her second husband), who is an actress.

### Sonic and Shadow

The levels for Sonic and Shadow are the classic "Get to the Goal" levels. They are very agile and can use shortcuts made by enemies and later, Rings. They have the ability to become Super, using the Chaos Emeralds. The levels are very similar to the original Sonic the Hedgehog game, except of course it is three dimensional.

### Tails and Eggman

These two are also "Get to the Goal" levels. A difference from Sonic and Shadow's levels are that they are "mech", in other words they use machines to move around. They fire bullets from their Cannons.

### Knuckles and Rouge

These levels are treasure hunting levels, where they have to find Master Emerald shards, Chaos Emeralds (in Rouge's case), or Door Keys.
**Silent letters** are letters written in words that, when spoken, do not correspond to the pronunciation of a given letter and also do not allow anyone to hear their sound when they appear in the word. 

Many of them come from Old English. These include the *k* in *know* and *knee*, the second *b* in *bomb* and *numb,* the *s* in *island,* and the *e* in *lame* and *lime*. There is also a silent *g* in *sign*, which is from Middle English. Old English uses the sound of the silent *k* and *gh* from *knight*, which was pronounced at the time. The word changed its history. Other words, such as *knowledge*, also begin with silent *k* when the letter *n* comes after it. There is also the silent *r* that happens to be in many other words from Old English, such as the one that happens to be heard in former words such as *February* that can be sounded and sometimes it is also silent unlike how you kneel as well as that silent *d* in *Wednesday* that happens to be the first as well as that*. There is also the silent n* at the end of other words, such as *autumn*. The word *wrong* means not right, and begins with silent *w*. There are words that sometimes begin with silent *g*, such as *gnat*. 

Other silent letters may be the *r* in words from Old French, like *hors d'ouvert* and the sound of the *t* is sometimes heard in some words like *often,* but it may also be silent. There is also a silent *w* in *answer*, and the *w* is not pronounced. The word *kneel* starts with a silent *k*. The letter *g* has two sounds, both hard and soft, but it is sometimes silent at the beginning of the word *gnat* when it comes before the letter *n* that comes after it. You can sometimes say the silent *g* for fun in order to start a word, such as *gnome* or *gnat* because they may be completely different. That is why the completely silent *g* in *gnat* happens to be quite different from other consonants, and you can only believe that it is near what you might keep remembering after you remember. Also, *gnome* is very different from that! We had that. One word, which is *gneiss*, is written like *nice*, but it is only a particular rock that starts with that silent *g* before that *n*. 

Silent letters exist in the spelling systems in many languages. They are very common in languages with deep orthographies, spelling systems with little one-to-one relationship between letters and sounds, like English, French, Thai, and Mongolian.
Nuclear power reactor defense layers
A **containment building** is a building with a nuclear reactor in it. It is built around the reactor to keep the radiation from getting out, if something happens to the reactor. The containment building is the last barrier to the radiation getting into the environment. Containment systems for nuclear power reactors are distinguished by size, shape, materials used, and suppression systems. The kind of containment used is determined by the type of reactor, generation of the reactor, and the specific plant needs.

The Chernobyl accident was very bad partly because the Soviet RBMK reactors used at the Chernobyl power plant had no containment buildings. The explosion, however, was so powerful that it is unlikely a containment building would have completely prevented the release of radiation.

Layers of nuclear defense
-------------------------

The diagram shows the order of defense layers for a nuclear reactor. The first layer of defense is the inert, ceramic quality of the uranium oxide itself. The second layer is the air tight zirconium alloy of the fuel rod. The third layer is the reactor pressure vessel made of steel more than a dozen centimeters thick. The fourth layer is the pressure resistant, air tight *containment building*. The fifth layer is the exclusion zone around the reactor.
