Hesperornis  is an extinct genus of flightless aquatic birds that lived during the Upper Cretaceous (89–65 million years ago).
Hesperornis was an important early find in the history of avian paleontology.
It was discovered by the paleontologist O.C. Marsh in the late 19th century Bone Wars.
Famous locations for Hesperornis are the Upper Cretaceous marine limestones from Kansas and the marine shales from Canada.
The genus probably had a Holarctic distribution.
Anatomy and life style
Hesperornis was a large bird, reaching up to 1.5 meters (5 feet) in length.
It had virtually no wings, and swam with its powerful hind legs.
Like many other Mesozoic birds such as Ichthyornis, Hesperornis had teeth in its beak which were used to hold prey (most likely fish).
Hesperornis hunted in the waters of such contemporary shelf seas as the North American Inland Sea, the Turgai Strait and the prehistoric North Sea, which then were subtropical to tropical waters, much warmer than today.
They probably fed mainly on fish, maybe also crustaceans, cephalopods and mollusks, as do the diving seabirds of today.
Their teeth were helpful in dealing with slippery or hard-shelled prey.
On land, Hesperornis species may or may not have been able to walk.
They certainly could not stand upright like penguins as in the early reconstructions.
Their legs attached far at the back and sideways, with even the lower leg being tightly attached to the body (see photo of skeleton).
Thus, they were limited to a clumsy hobble at best on land and would have been more nimble if they moved by sliding on their belly or galumphing.
The leg skeleton of Hesperornis was so thoroughly adapted to diving that their mode on land, and their egg-laying and parental care, is a matter of speculation.
Young Hesperornis grew fairly quickly and continuously to adulthood, as is the case in modern birds.
More young birds are known from the fossil record of the more northerly sites than from those further south.
This suggests that at least some species were migratory like today's penguins, which swim polewards in the summer.
Hesperornis was preyed upon by large marine carnivores such as mosasaurs.
A Tylosaurus specimen contains the bones of a Hesperornis in its gut area.
The Nissan Primera was an automobile produced by Nissan.
It replaced the Nissan Bluebird in 1990 and was produced in three generations produced until 2006.
The first generation was made from 1990 to 1996.
The second generation was made from late 1996 to early 2002 with a facelift in 1999 for European markets.
The third generation was made from late 2001 to 2006 and was effectively replaced with the Qashqai crossover model in early 2007.
It was also offered in the US market as the Infiniti G20 sold over two generations with only a sedan model available coming from the factory in Japan between the 1991 and 2002 model years.
It is available as a 4-door sedan, 5-door hatchback and 5-door station wagon bodystyles with 4-cylinder petrol and diesel engines.
The model was produced in Japan and the UK.

People eat too much.
This is known as overeating.
When this happens, they often lose control, and cannot stop.
Very often, they eat more food than other people in the same time.
People feel very painful and distraught while they eat or after eating.
People want to make up the consequences of binge eating by some inappropriate and unhealthy ways.
It can make people feel satisfied for a while, but after that, they will feel guilty and they will regret eating so much.
People overeat to feel better, but they actually feel worse, and go back to overeating for relief, forming a vicious cycle.
If binge eating becomes a pattern, this is an eating disorder.
People who suffer from this have a high risk of weight gain.
They may feel ashamed of their eating habits and become depressed.
People who binge and then purge, (usually by vomiting), have a different eating disorder called bulimia.
People with anorexia may also binge and purge.

A matchbox is a box that contains safety matches.
Usually, they are made of wooden sticks or cardboard.
Matchboxes commonly have the dimension 5 x 3,5 x 1,5 cm.
Matchbooks have replaced matchboxes for some applications.
ContainersThe roaring, blinding flames lie undisturbed in an enchanted sleep.
The disguised flames lay enclosed and protected in a rectangular enclosure and they wait, like a dying plant desperate for a drop of water, for the moment when they will awaken from their sleep and sizzle to life.
A matchbox is an object we use and see in our everyday life.
Therefore we may take its value and importance for granted.
But fire is no ordinary discovery.
It can perhaps be called ancient mans greatest discovery.
A matchstick is a thin, smooth slice of wood, delicately cut into a rectangular stick.
The tip of this stick however, is covered with a charcoal like black substance.
This is the resting place of the birth of the flames.
These flames will only awaken from their deep slumber when they are scratched along the side of their rectangular enclosure.
The matchstick scratches itself along the side of the matchbox in a swift movement and then all at once, as if by magic, a mesmerizing flam of crimson yellow and blood red appears.
The flame is not tame and will not stay obediently at the tip of the matchstick.
It slowly and threateningly makes its way down the thin slice of wood until eventually it reaches the end of the stick where it meets its fate.
All too soon, the flame disappears as quickly as it appeared, leaving no trace that it ever existed.
In a traditional fairy tale, the sleeping princess is locked away in an eerie and irksome tower of a castle in a land far away from civilization.
In a similar manner the matches are forever locked away in a dismal prison- a cardboard box.
This prison can range in all shapes and sizes just like in a fairy tale.
However, no matter what the size, what the shape, its properties are still the same.
The smell of a match box remains a mystery to all for it has to particular smell.
The mystery of the fell of the matchsticks has been uncovered.
The wooden stick is smooth but the black tip is a sharp contrast for it is rough.
The matchbox has clearly found its place in our lives.
Its importance is unimaginable and we are ignorant creatures if we fail to recognize this.

Sauerkraut ("sour herb") directly translated from German or "sour cabbage", is finely shredded cabbage that has been fermented by various lactic acid bacteria, including Leuconostoc, Lactobacillus, and Pediococcus.
It has a long shelf-life and a distinctive sour flavor, both of which result from the lactic acid that forms when the bacteria ferment the sugars in the cabbage.
It is therefore not to be confused with coleslaw, which receives its acidic taste from vinegar.
It has its roots in cole flower marinated in honey and fluid from your belly.
Conservation of legumes with lactic acid has a long history.
It was known and used both in Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome.
It was common to eat conserved cabbage during the winter months.

In biology, a cline, or 'ecocline', describes a series of connected populations in a species.
These populations show a continuous gradient of traits and genetics.
The term was coined by the English evolutionary biologist Julian Huxley in 1938.
He defined a cline as a species whose members fall into a series of sub-species with continuous change in characters over a geographical area.
The reason for these differences is that the environment is somewhat different in different parts of the range.
Populations become adapted to the situation in their areas, but this adaptation is limited by gene flow between neighbouring sub-species.
A precancerous (or premalignant) condition is not malignant.
However, it has the potential to become cancer if proper treatment is not taken in time.

1776 in New York (state)
The Battle of Fort Washington was one of the early battles fought in the American Revolutionary War between the United States and Great Britain.
It took place on 16 November 1776.
The British won the battle.
After winning against the Continental Army (commanded by George Washington), the British army (commanded by William Howe) wanted to capture Fort Washington, the last American stronghold in Manhattan.
Washington had thought of leaving the Fort and moving its military camp of 1400 men to New Jersey, but had been convinced by General Nathaniel Greene to fight for it.
The garrison was expanded to 3,000 men.
On 16 November, Howe attacked the fort.
The assault came from three different directions: the north, east and south.
The attack was put off for a short time because of the tides in the Harlem River that stopped some of the troops from landing.
When the attack did begin, the southern and western American defenses fell quickly.
In the North there was better defense against the attack, but they eventually weakened as well.
With the fort surrounded by land and sea the Fort's commander, Robert Magaw, chose to surrender the fort rather than try to hold out.
A total of 59 Americans were killed and 2,837 became prisoners of the British.
After this defeat the main American army under George Washington was chased across New Jersey and into Pennsylvania, setting the stage for the battles of Trenton and Princeton.
The Great Fire of New York was a large fire in New York City.
It burned through the night of September 21, 1776 on the west side of the former boundaries of New York City at the southern end of the island of Manhattan.
It started when the British Army took control of the city during the American Revolutionary War.
Many think that Washington's men started the fire due to a recent loss against the British in an attempt to halt their shipping of materials.
Others believe that the British Army started the fire in an attempt to burn Whitehall.
The fire destroyed 10 to 25% of the city.
Some of the unburned parts of the city were ransacked.
Many people thought that someone started the fire on purpose, for different reasons.
British leaders accused American rebels, who had recently lost the Battle of Long Island, of starting the fire.
No one really knows who started the Great Fire of New York but historians have their own guesses.
Cinematography  is the recording of photographic images for cinema.
Like other still photography, it includes making lighting and camera choices.
However, the pictures move.
A person who specializes in cinematography is called a cinematographer.
Entymology
The word cinemetography come from the Greek words kinema - κίνημα, meaning "movement" and graphein - γράφειν meaning "to write".
Cinematographers use a lens to focus reflected light from objects.
This light makes an image that is used by an image sensor or a light-sensitive material inside a movie camera.
These images are created one after another and saved for later processing and viewing as a motion picture.
When using and electronic image sensorm the image creates an electrical charge for each pixel in the image.
These are processed and stored in a video file.
This file can later be processed or shown.
Images captured with photographic emulsion creat a series of invisible images on the film stock.
Chemicals are used to "developed" this into visible images.
The images on the film stock are projected for viewing the motion picture.
Cinematography is used in many fields of science and business as well as for entertainment and mass communication.
