Route Availability (RA) is the system by which the permanent way and supporting works (bridges, embankments, etc.)
of the National Rail network of Great Britain are graded.
All routes are given an RA number between 1 and 10.
Rolling stock is also given an RA (again between 1 and 10) and the RA of a train is the highest RA of any of the supporting elements.
The RA is mainly about the axle load of the vehicle, although axle spacing is also taken into thought.
In practice it is the locomotive which decides where trains may operate, although many high capacity four axle wagons have high RAs when fully loaded. (
When considering the operation of trains the loading gauge must also be considered.)
Blackberry pie is pie made of blackberry filling, most of the time in the form of either blackberry jam, blackberries themselves, or sometimes both.
Blackberries must be stewed or soaked in water before baking to stop burning.
Fresh frozen  blackberries sweetened with brown sugar nestled under a double crust and served with ice cream is usually eaten in summer, and many people enjoy it as a summer favorite.
Butterfly gardening is a growing school of gardening, that is aimed at creating an environment that attracts butterflies, as well as some moths.
Butterfly gardening is often done to invite those butterflies and moths to lay eggs as well.
In addition to the planting of flowers that feed butterflies, other methods of attracting them are building "butterfly houses", with sand for puddling, water to drink, and food items, like rotten fruit.

Hornworts are a type of bryophytes.
They are non-vascular plants which do not have tissue that moves water.
The name "hornwort" come from the horn-like structure that grows on these plants.
This structure is the sporophyte.
The flattened, green part of a hornwort is the gametophyte.
Like all bryophytes, hornworts have alternation of generations.
In this cycle, the plant has two forms: the haploid gametophyte and diploid sporophyte.
The gametophyte is the green plant body that you most often see.
The sporophyte is the "horn" that sheds spores.
Hornworts grow all over the world.
They grow well where it is damp or humid.
Some species grow in large numbers as tiny weeds in the soil of gardens and cultivated fields.
Some tropical species may be found growing on tree bark.
The taxonomy of bryophytes is being debated.
Some think the hornworts should be placed in a separate division, the Anthocerotophyta.
Horneophyton is a fossil plant similar to hornworts.

The Airbus A310 is a jet airliner made by Airbus.
It was announced in July 1978 and it was the second aircraft to be made by Airbus.
The A310 is a shorter version of the Airbus A300, which was Airbus' first plane.
When the Airbus A300 was being designed, Airbus studied many different sizes of plane.
The Airbus A300B was chosen, and it was one of the smaller designs.
When the A300B prototypes were made, many airlines asked for a plane which could hold more passengers.
Airbus then changed to the A300B2 version, which was the first type to be made.
Airbus noticed that many airlines also wanted smaller planes.
Some airlines did not have enough passengers to use the A300.
Airbus wanted to keep the cost of designing a smaller A300 as low as possible.
Airbus decided that the plane would hold 220 passengers, which was what many airlines wanted.
Another problem was the rate of inflation.
In the UK during 1979–1980, it was 35%.
This would mean that the designing costs would be very high, and so would the price of the plane.
Design effort
At the April 1978 Hanover Air Show, Airbus brought a model A310.
Its wing area was , was a bit larger than what Airbus designed.
If two classes were used in the plane, 195 passengers could travel in the aircraft.
If the plane is all-economy, 245 passengers could fit inside.
On 15 March, Swissair bought the A310.
It said that it would buy 10 and have 10 options, to replace its McDonnell Douglas DC-9 series.
Lufthansa bought ten planes for $240 million.
Air France and Iberia soon did the same.
On 1 April 1979 Lufthansa increased its order to 25 orders and 25 options.
Two days later, KLM bought 10 planes and had 10 options, which cost ₤238 million.
Other airlines which bought the A310 during 1979 included Martinair, Sabena and Air Afrique.
At first, Airbus planned two versions of the A310: the A310-100 and the A310-200.
The A310-100 could fly for  with 200 passengers, and the -200 could carry the same number of passengers for  longer.
Airlines kept buying the A310, and the A310-200 flew for the first time on 3 April 1982.
Orders and options had been made for 181 aircraft, which was a much better start than the A300.
Airbus realised that the −200 aircraft was much more popular than the -100 aircraft.
In 1979, Airbus decided to stop making the A310-100.
No airlines bought the A310 during the late 1990s because Airbus had made the Airbus A330.
Airbus stopped making the A300 and the A310 in July 2007.
The freighter version of the A310 was replaced by the A330-200F.
The A310 was replaced by the A330-200.
Between 1983 and 1998, 255 A310s were made.
The A310 was a changed version of the A300; the aircraft was first called the A300B10.
The main differences between the A300 and the A310 are:
Back of the plane had its design changed
Wings were re-designed
Re-designed wheels with carbon brakes
Better auxiliary power unit.
The aircraft has a glass cockpit.
The A300-600 has the same flight deck as the A310.
The flight deck can hold up to two more seats.
Different types of Airbus A310
Two versions of the A310 were made: the −200 and the −300.
The first version which was designed was the −200.
The first A310 first flew on 3 April 1982.
It had Pratt & Whitney JT9D-7R4D1 engines.
The −200 was used by Swissair and Lufthansa.
A310-200C
This version can be changed from a passenger plane to a cargo plane and back again.
A310-200F / -300F
Freighter.
It can carry 39t of freight for 5,950 km.
No A310 freighters were made.
All freighter versions of the A310 are changed versions of normal A310s.
Identical to the −200, but it can fly for longer.
Swissair was the first airline to use the plane in 1986.
A310-300C
Same as the A310-200C, but it is a version of the -300 and not the -200.
A310 MRT/MRTT
The A310 has been used by many air forces as a transport plane (A310-300 MRT).
However, several have been changed to the  "Multi Role Tanker Transport" design by EADS.
The plane can refuel other planes while flying.
At least six have been bought.

Data until the end of December 1998.
The A310 has had ten hull-loss accidents.
825 people have died in these accidents.
A hull-loss accident is when a plane is damaged so much that it cannot be repaired, or if the plane is completely destroyed.
The A310 has also had ten hijackings.
Five people have died in these.

It is the sequel to The Secret of NIMH produced by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Animation.
It tells the story of a mouse named Timothy Brisby, the youngest son of Jonathan and Mrs. Brisby, who goes to Thorn Valley wanting to become a hero like his father.
The movie begins with a prophecy from the first movie, telling how one of Jonathan's and Mrs. Brisby's sons would save Thorn Valley from the "secret of NIMH."
Timothy is chosen to go but his older brother Martin believes he should have been chosen.

He asks Timmy to join him, but he refuses and is locked in a cage as Martin drags Jenny away.
Timmy later frees Jenny.
Together, they knock out Martin and Timmy tricks Martin's army of ravens and rats to fly in the wrong direction.
Timmy and Jenny then leave to find the others only to be attacked by a band of bad cats and rats.
The building they are in catches fire during the fight.
The survivors (Timmy, Jenny, and her parents) flee.
Timmy goes back to save Martin.
Before he leaves, Jenny tells him she loves him and he tells her the same.
Timmy and Martin are able to escape through the lab's skylight, with some help from Jeremy.
Jeremy takes the survivors to safety.
The mice return to Thorn Valley, Martin returns to normal and Timmy is now a hero.
A likeness of him is added to the statue of Jonathan and the people of Thorn Valley cheer.

The European honey bee or western honey bee (Apis mellifera) is the main species of honey bee.
The genus Apis is Latin for "bee", and mellifera comes from Greek melli- meaning "honey" and ferre "to bear".
So, the scientific name means "honey-bearing bee".
In 1758 Carolus Linnaeus named the bees as Apis mellifera.
However, he later found out that bees do not bear honey, but they actually bear nectar.
Because of this, he tried to change it to Apis mellifica ("honey-making bee") later.

The blue jay (Cyanocitta cristata) is a passerine bird native to North America.
It is adaptable, aggressive and omnivorous.
The blue jay measures 22–30 cm (9–12 inches) from bill to tail and weighs 70–100 grams (2.47–3.53 oz), with a wingspan of 34–43 cm (13–17 inches).
There is a crown of feathers on the top of the head, which may be raised or lowered according to the bird's mood.
When excited or aggressive, the crest may be fully raised.
When scared, the crest comes outwards, brushlike.
When the bird is feeding among other jays or resting, the crest is flattened to the head.
Its plumage is lavender-blue to mid-blue in the crest, back, wings, and tail, and its face is white.
The underside is off-white and the neck has a thin stripe with black which extends to the sides of the head.
The main wing and tail feathers are deep with black, sky-blue and white.
The bill, legs, and eyes are all black.
Males and females look nearly the same except that males are a little bit larger.
Blue jays can make many different sounds, and single sounds may vary a bit.
Blue jays can learn to mimic human speech.
Blue jays can also copy the callings of local hawks so well that it is sometimes difficult to tell which it is.
Their voice is normal of most jays in being varied, but the most commonly thought sound is the "alarm call", which is a loud, almost gull-like scream.
There is also a high-pitched jayer-jayer call that increases in speed as the bird becomes more excited.
This very call can be easily confused with the chick-a-dee's song because of the slow starting chick-ah-dee-ee.
Blue Jays will use these calls to band together to mob predators such as hawks and drive them away from the jays' nests.
The blue jay is a slow flier ( 32–40 km/h (20-25 mi/h) when unprovoked) and an easy prey for hawks and owls, when it flies in open lands.
It flies with its body and tail held level, with slow wing beats.
It is sometimes assertive toward other birds and may chase birds from bird feeders or other food sources, although this happens much less often than it is blamed for.
This can be good to other species as well, as it may chase predatory birds, such as hawks and owls which sometimes feed on jays, and will scream if it sees a predator within its territory.
It has also been known to sound an "alarm call" when hawks or other dangers are near, and smaller birds often know this call and hide themselves away accordingly.
It may also be aggressive towards humans who come close to its nest, and if an owl roosts near the nest during the daytime the blue jay mobs it until it takes a new roost.
Its food is found both on the ground and in trees and has almost all known types of plant and animal sources, like acorns and beech mast, weed seeds, grain, fruits and other berries, peanuts, bread, meat, small invertebrates of many types, scraps in town parks, bird-table food and rarely eggs and nestlings.
Blue jays will sometimes catch food, though to what extent is different among individuals.
The mating season starts in mid-March and reaches into July.
Any nice tree or large shrub may be used for nesting, though an evergreen is preferred.
The nest is normally made at a height of 3 to 10 meters.
This cup-shaped nest is made of twigs, small roots, bark strips, moss, other plant material, cloth, paper, and feathers, sometimes with mud added to the cup.
Blue jays mostly form monogamous pair bonds for life.
Both sexes make the nest and take care of the young, though only the female broods them.
The male feeds the female while she is brooding the eggs.
There are normally 4–5 eggs laid and incubated over 16–18 days.
The young leave the nest normally between 17–21 days after hatching.
Jays are some of the more smart birds.
They will wait and watch for a person to put food down and as soon as the person walks away they will come down from their hiding place and take it.
Along with crows, jays will also watch a person planting seed crops and afterwards dig up and eat the seeds.
Jays are very territorial birds, and they will chase others from a feeder for an easier meal.
The blue jay has a bad reputation as a raider of other birds' nests, taking eggs, chicks, and nests.
However, this may not be as widespread as is normally thought.

Ken Masters is a video game character in the Street Fighter franchise.
"Bart the Genius" is the second episode of the first season of The Simpsons, which was first shown on the Fox network on January 14, 1990.
It was the first episode written by Jon Vitti.
It was also the first ever episode to use the signature title sequence, as well as the first normal episode.
The episode has Bart Simpson's experiences of life as a smarty-pants after he cheats on an intelligence test.
It is the first episode that uses Bart's catchphrase "Eat my shorts."
As the second episode was made, right after the bad animation of "Some Enchanted Evening," the future of the series relied on how the animation turned out on this episode.
The episode starts with the Simpson family playing Scrabble.
Bart plays the word "kwyjibo", which is not a real word.
A terrier is a dog of any one of many breeds of terrier types.
They are named from the Latin word terra meaning earth.
It refers to their love of digging after their prey (small burrowing mammals).
Terriers are typically small, very active and fearless dogs.
Terrier breeds vary greatly in size from just  to over .
They are usually categorized by size or function.
There are five different groups with each group having several different breeds.
Terriers do not usually tolerate other dogs well.
They are descended from dogs bred to hunt and kill rodents.
Terriers usually have 'wiry' (stiff hairs like wire) coats that need special care.
Examples of terriers include Irish Terrier and the Cairn Terrier.
Viswanathan Anand, known as Vishy, (born 11 December 1969) is a former World Chess
Anand is the oldest player in modern times to become classical World Champion for the first time: he was 37 when he won in 2007.
When the world championship was split, Anand played in both versions.
In the classical chess versions, sometimes called the "PCA cycle", Anand won matches against Oleg Romanishin and Michael Adams without a loss, then avenged his FIDE loss by defeating Gata Kamsky in the Candidates final.
In 1995, he played the PCA World Chess Championship 1995 against Kasparov in New York City's World Trade Center.
After an opening run of eight draws (a record for the opening of a world championship match), Anand won game nine with a powerful exchange sacrifice, but then lost four of the next five.
He lost the match 10½–7½.
Anand held the FIDE World Chess Championship from 2000 to 2002 when the world title was split.
This was a knock-out event of a different type from the classical matches.
He became the undisputed World Champion in 2007 and defended his title against Vladimir Kramnik in 2008.
With this win, he became the first player in chess history to have won the World Championship in three different formats: knockout, tournament, and match.
Anand retained the world title by beating Veselin Topalov 6½–5½ in May 2010.
He kept the title again by defeating Boris Gelfand in 2012.
This match was won in a four-game rapidplay tiebreaker, after the main match was tied at 6–6.
Anand is one of a small group of players to break the 2800 mark on the FIDE rating list, and in April 2007 at the age of 37, he became world number one for the first time.
He was at the top of the world rankings five out of six times, from April 2007 to July 2008, holding the number one ranking for a total of 15 months.
In October 2008, he dropped out of the world top three ranking for the first time since July 1996.
In 2007 he was awarded India's second highest civilian award, the Padma Vibhushan.
He is also the first recipient of Rajiv Gandhi Khel Ratna Award in 1991–92, India's highest sporting honour.
Though retaining his Indian citizenship, Vishy has been living in Spain for the past decade.
Anand lost the title to Magnus Carlsen in 2013, and also lost the return match in 2014 by  4½ to 6½.

Continental Airlines was an American airline based and headquartered in downtown Houston, Texas.
It was founded in 1937.
It was the fourth-largest airline in the US based on revenue passenger miles.
Since 1998, Continental's marketing slogan had been Work Hard, Fly Right.
Continental Airlines announced on Monday, May 3, 2010, that they were merging with United Airlines.
The merger was approved in September 2010, and the parent company changed its name to United Continental Holdings when United completed its acquisition of Continental.
The combined airline takes the United Airlines name but uses Continental's globe and livery.
There has been negative reaction to the new livery, many of whom were in favor of keeping the iconic "tulip" logo, designed by Saul Bass in 1973.
Continental operated flights to destinations throughout the U.S., Canada, Latin America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific regions.
Together with its subsidiaries it had more than 2,423 daily departures, serving 130 domestic and 132 international destinations and had 42,210 employees (as of December 2009).
Principal operations were from its three hubs at Newark Liberty International Airport, George Bush Intercontinental Airport, and Cleveland Hopkins International Airport.
