Tuscan Archipelago National Park website
Pianosa is a small (about 10 km2) island in Italy's Tuscan Archipelago.
The name is derived from the latin word "planasia" (plain) because its highest point is some 22 meters over sea level.
Pianosa has no permanent residents.
It is known in Italy for a maximum-security prison, where especially dangerous Mafia criminals are held.
For administration, Pianosa is part of the Elba island municipality.
On clear days, it can be seen from that island as a dark blue line over the lighter blue sea.
In the novel Catch-22, a U.S. Army Air Corps bomber squadron is based on the island during World War II,
There is another, even smaller island called Pianosa off the Adriatic coast of Italy.
Capraia, is an island of Italy, part of the Tuscan Archipelago, off the northwest coast, belonging to the Province of Livorno.
It is 62 km from the city of Livorno by sea, and 32 km northwest of the island of Elba.
It is of volcanic origin, has an area of 19 km² and its highest point is 466 m above sea level.
As of 31 December 2004, the comune (municipality) of Capraia Isola had a population of 366
It became Genoese in 1527 and was strongly fortified.
In 1796 it was occupied for a short time by Horatio Nelson.
Part of the island was formerly occupied by an agricultural penal colony, but it was shut down in 1986.
Most of the island has been made into a national park.
About 40 km to the north is the island of Gorgona, which is also famous for its anchovies.
Monte Cristo is a small Italian Island, about 4.3 kilometers across at its widest point, about halfway between Corsica and mainland Italy; south of Elba and west of Giglio.
It is part of the Tuscan Archipelago.
The island is probably best known as a fictional setting in the novel The Count of Monte Cristo by  Alexandre Dumas, père.
The island is remote and kept by the Italian government as a nature preserve and hunting park, and only accessible by private yacht and permit.
There are no structures on the island.
Giglio Island (Italian: Isola del Giglio) is an island and Italian commune located in the Tyrrhenian Sea, off the coast of Tuscany, part of the Province of Grosseto, and part of Tuscan Archipelago
The island is separated by a 16 km stretch of sea from the Argentario promontory: mainly mountainous, it is almost all granite with the highest point the Poggio della Pagana (496 m).
90% of its surface is covered by Mediterranean vegetation alternating with large pine forests and numerous vineyards which enable the production of the famous "Ansonaco" wine.
The coast is 27 km long, made up of rocks, of smooth cliffs and several bays: Arenella, Cannelle, Caldane and Campese, the biggest one with its little village of the same name.
The modern island was probably born 4.5 - 5 millions years ago, and people have lived there since the Iron Age.
Later it was probably an Etruscan military stronghold.
Under the Romans it was an important base in the Tyrrhenian Sea, written about, for example, by Julius Caesar in his De Bello Gallico and by the poet Rutilius Claudius Namatianus.
In 805 it was given by Charlemagne to the abbey of the Tre Fontane in Rome, and was later a possession of Aldobrandeschi, Pannocchieschi, Caetani, Orsini families and the town of Perugia.
In 1241 the Sicilian fleet of Emperor Frederick II destroyed a Genoese fleet.
From 1264 Giglio was a Pisane dominion, from which it passed to the Medici.
It suffered several Saracen attacks, which ended only in 1799.
How the island was
The island has the remains of a Roman villa of Domitius Ahenobarbus (1st-2nd centuries), in the area of Giglio Porto.
No traces of the Temple of Diana once existing now can be seen.
The church of San Pietro Apostolo in Giglio Castello has an ivory crucifix believed to be by Giambologna
It is also site of an Etruscan shipwreck, dating to the early Iron Age, c. 600 BC.
The cargo of the ship included copper and lead ingots, iron spits, amphorae and a Corinthian helmet.
The finds are almost completely lost now.

The AH-64 Apache is an attack helicopter that first flew in 1975 and has been produced since 1984.
It was designed by Hughes Helicopters, but that later became McDonnell Douglas, which later became Boeing.
It is designed to attack things on the ground to help soldiers.
To do this, it can carry 16 AGM-114 Hellfire missiles, along with rocket pods, and a 30mm chain gun that can fire 625 rounds per minute.
It can carry 1,200 bullets.
It can also carry missiles like the AIM-9 Sidewinder to shoot down things in the air if it is attacked by fighter aircraft or other helicopters.
AH-64 details
The AH-64 is 49.11 feet (14.97 meters) long, 17.16 feet (5.23 meters) wide, and 16.24 feet (4.95 meters) tall.
Without anything, it weighs 11,799 pounds (5,352 kilograms).
Full, it weighs 22,282 pounds (10,107 kilograms).
It is powered by 2 General Electric T700-GE-701C engines.
It can go 162 miles per hour (261 kilometers per hour), can fly 1,181 miles (1,900 kilometers) without refueling, can fly 9,478 feet (2,889 meters) high, and can climb 2,415 feet a minute (736 meters a minute).
The AH-64's users
The AH-64 has been used by the United States.
It was first used in Operation Just Cause.
It has also been used by Israel, Japan, Netherlands, United Kingdom, Kuwait, Greece, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, and Singapore.
Concept and Building History
The need of a new and highly secure helicopter was first felt in the beginning of the 1990s.
The great military power, the British Army, identified this need and by February 1993 they finalised the need with an invitation to bid for the design, construction and trial of the new concept.
Among the bidding companies were: Boeing and Sikorsky with the RAH-66 Comanche, Agusta with the A129 Mangusta, British Aerospace and Eurocopter with the Tiger, GEC Marconi and Bell Helicopter the Cobra Venom, and Westland and McDonnell Douglas with the AH-64 Apache.
The decision was taken later in July in 2005 and the winning aircraft builder was Westland and McDonnell Douglas with the Apache.
One year later in 2006 the tow Parties signed a contract for 67 helicopters.
This is how the WAH-64D Apache era started.
The 67 WAH-64D Apache attack helicopters were built by the merged companies Boeing and McDonnell Douglas (1997) and Westland between 1999 and 2004.
The first aircraft was built by Boeing and delivered to the Army in March 1999, followed by the Westland, who built their first aircraft in 2000 and delivered in July 2000.
The last aircraft was built and delivered in July 2004.
Aberdeen is a village of Brown County, Ohio, United States, along the Ohio River.

Harry James Potter is the main character in J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter fantasy series.
The books cover seven years in the life of the orphan who, on his 11th birthday, learns he is a wizard and the son of magical parents Lily and James Potter.
He goes to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to learn magic.
Harry soon learns that he is already famous in the world of wizards.
He also learns that his fate is connected to Lord Voldemort.
Voldemort was an evil wizard who killed Harry's parents, but was believed to have died when he tried to use the Killing Curse on the baby Harry.
Rowling said that the idea for the Harry Potter character came to her while riding on a train from Manchester to London in 1990.
She decided to make him an orphan after the death of her mother.
According to author J. K. Rowling, the idea for both the Harry Potter books and the character came while waiting for a delayed train from Manchester to London in 1990.
J.K. Rowling said that in the hours she waited, her idea for "this scrawny, black-haired, bespectacled boy who didn't know he was a wizard became more and more real to me."
Rowling also decided to make Harry an orphan at a boarding school called Hogwarts.
She explained, "Harry HAD to be an orphan - so that he's a free agent, with no fear of letting down his parents, disappointing them … Hogwarts HAS to be a boarding school - half the important stuff happens at night!
Then there's the security.
Having a child of my own reinforces my belief that children above all want security, and that's what Hogwarts offers Harry."
The death of her mother on 30 December 1990 led Rowling led to write Harry Potter as a boy longing for his dead parents.
His pain became "more deeper, more real" than in earlier versions because she related to it herself.
In a 2000 interview with The Guardian, Rowling also said that the character of Wart in T.H. White's novel The Sword in the Stone is "Harry's spiritual ancestor."
In that book, a boy called Wart meets the mysterious wizard Merlin.
Merlin helps the child grow into a noble, powerful warrior who later becomes King Arthur.
She also said that Harry was born on 31 July and has the same birthday as herself.
However, she says, Harry is not directly based on any real-life character, "he came just out of a part of me".
First book
Harry first appears in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (published in the United States as Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone) as the book's protagonist, or main character.
When Harry was a little over one year old, his parents were killed by the powerful Dark Wizard, Lord Voldemort.
Harry survived Voldemort's Killing Curse after his mother died to protect him.
The Curse was turned back at Voldemort and ripped his soul from his body.
Because of this, Harry has a lightning-bolt shaped scar on his forehead.
Rowling has said that creating the story about Harry Potter's past was a matter of reverse planning: "The basic idea [is that] Harry … didn't know he was a wizard … and so then I kind of worked backwards from that position to find out how that could be, that he wouldn't know what he was… When he was one-year-old, the most evil wizard in hundreds of years attempted to kill him.
He killed Harry's parents, and then he tried to kill Harry - he tried to curse him… Harry has to find out, before we find out.
And - so - but for some mysterious reason, the curse didn't work on Harry.
So he's left with this lightning-bolt shaped scar on his forehead, and the curse rebounded upon the evil wizard who has been in hiding ever since".
Harry is written as an orphan living unhappily with his only family left, the cruel Dursleys.
On his eleventh birthday, Harry finds that he is a wizard when Rubeus Hagrid tells him that he is to go Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
There he learns about his parents and his connection to the Dark Lord.
He is sorted into Gryffindor House by the Sorting Hat and becomes friends with classmates Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger.
Near the end of his first year at Hogwarts, he stops Voldemort's attempt to steal the Philosopher's Stone via Quirinus Quirrell.
He also forms rivalries with characters Draco Malfoy, a classmate from an elitist wizard family, and the Potions teacher and head of Slytherin House, Severus Snape.
Both feuds continue throughout the series.
In a 1999 interview, Rowling stated that Draco is based on several schoolyard bullies she had known and Snape on a teacher of hers who abused his power.
Rowling has said that the Mirror of Erised chapter in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone is her favourite.
The mirror reflects Harry's deepest desire, namely to see his dead parents.
Her favourite funny scene is when Harry accidentally sets a boa constrictor free from the zoo in the horrified Dursleys' presence.
Second to fourth books
In the second book, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Rowling puts Harry against Tom Marvolo Riddle, a memory of Lord Voldemort locked up in a secret diary that Ron's younger sister Ginny Weasley finds in a bathroom.
When Muggle (non-magic) parentage students are found being petrified, many think that Harry may be the one behind the attacks, making him become more detached from his classmates.
At the height of the book, Ginny Weasley is found to be missing.
To rescue her, Harry battles Riddle and the monster he controls that is hidden in the Chamber of Secrets.
In the third book, called Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Rowling uses time travel as the basis for the book.
Harry learns that his parents were sold out to Lord Voldemort by their friend Peter Pettigrew, also accused of framing Harry's godfather Sirius Black for crimes he didn't make, locking him up in the wizarding prison, Azkaban.
When Black escapes to find revenge, Harry and Hermione use a Time Turner to save him and a hippogriff named Buckbeak.
Pettigrew, and the truth, escape from Sirius, causing him to be on the run from the authorities.
In the previous books, Harry is written as a child, but Rowling states that in the fourth novel, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, "Harry's horizons are literally and metaphorically widening as he grows older."
Harry's developing maturity becomes apparent when he becomes interested in Cho Chang, a pretty Ravenclaw student.
Tension mounts, however, when Harry is mysteriously chosen by the Goblet of Fire to compete in the dangerous Triwizard Tournament, even though another Hogwarts champion, Cedric Diggory, was already selected.
It is actually an elaborate scheme by Lord Voldemort to lure Harry into a deadly trap.
During the Tournament's final challenge, Harry and Cedric are teleported to a graveyard.
Cedric is killed, and Lord Voldemort, aided by Peter Pettigrew, uses Harry's blood in a gruesome ritual to resurrect Voldemort's body.
When Harry duels Voldemort, their wands' magical streams connect, forcing the spirit echoes of Voldemort's victims, including Cedric and James and Lily Potter, to be expelled from his wand through Priori Incancatem.
The spirits shortly protect Harry as he escapes to Hogwarts with Cedric's body.
For Rowling, this scene is important because it shows how Harry is brave, and by finding Cedric's corpse, he demonstrates selflessness and compassion.
Says Rowling, "He wants to save Cedric's parents additional pain".
She added that preventing Cedric Diggory's body from falling into Voldemort's hands is based on the classic scene in the Iliad where Achilles finds the body of his best friend Patroclus from the hands of Hector.
The author said: "That [Iliad scene] really, really, REALLY moved me when I read that when I was 19.
The idea of the desecration of a body, a very ancient idea... I was thinking of that when Harry saved Cedric's body."
She also said that she cried while writing the scene when Harry's dead parents are drawn from Voldemort's wand, the first time she cried while penning her story.
Fifth and sixth book
In the fifth book, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, the Ministry of Magic has been waging a smear campaign against Harry and Dumbledore, disputing their claims that Voldemort has returned.
A new character is introduced when the Ministry of Magic appoints Dolores Umbridge as the latest Hogwarts' Defence Against the Dark Arts instructor (and Ministry spy).
Because the paranoid Ministry thinks that Dumbledore is building a wizard army to overthrow them, Umbridge decides not to teach students real defensive magic.
She gradually gains more power, eventually seizing control of the school.
As a result, Harry's growing angry and erratic behaviour nearly estranges him from Ron and Hermione.
Rowling says she put Harry through extreme emotional stress to show his emotional vulnerability and humanity–a contrast to his nemesis, Voldemort. "[
Harry is] a very human hero, and this is, obviously, a contrast, between him, as a very human hero, and Voldemort, who has deliberately dehumanised himself.
And Harry, therefore, did have to reach a point where he did almost break down, and say he didn’t want to play anymore, he didn’t want to be the hero anymore – and he’d lost too much.
And he didn’t want to lose anything else.
So that – Phoenix was the point at which I decided he would have his breakdown."
At Hermione's urging, Harry secretly teaches his classmates real defensive magic to thwart Umbridge and the Ministry, but their meetings are found and Dumbledore is ousted as Headmaster.
