Timema is a genus of short-bodied, somewhat thicker stick insects.
They are native to the far western United States.
Compared to other stick insects (order Phasmatodea), the genus Timema is basal.
It is the earliest living branch to diverge from the phylogenetic tree of the Phasmatodea.
To emphasize this, all other stick insects  are sometimes described as "Euphasmatodea."
Five of the 21 species of Timema are parthenogenetic, including two species that have done sexual reproduction for a million years.
This is the longest known asexual period for any insect.
Timema sticks are night-feeders: they spend daytime resting on the leaves or bark of the plants they feed on.
They are camouflaged.
Timema species have colours (green, gray, or brown) and patterns (stripes or dots) which match their background.

Instead, the show had too many matches the crowd had no emotional investment in."
Near field communication (often shortened to NFC) is the name for a standard that uses radio communication technology to send data over short distances.
Usually, the distance covered is in the order of four centimeters.
The standard is mostly used for micropayment systems.
Another common use is to store tickets, such as those used for trains and buses on a re-usable smartcard.
Many universities equip their student ID cards so they can be used to pay small amounts, for example a cup of coffee in a cafeteria.
The devices that communicate need to be very close to each other (or touch each other).
This system is often used for ticketing applications
Bluetooth is sometimes used in addition, to bridge medium distances.
This is often used with security tokens for access control.
That way, the two devices simply need to be close to each other, in the order of 10-15 cm; touching is no longer required.

Bladderworts are  Utricularia, a genus of carnivorous plants.
There are about 230 species.
They occur in fresh water and wet soil as terrestrial or aquatic species.
They live in every continent except Antarctica.
Bladderworts are cultivated for their flowers, which are rather like those of snapdragons and orchids.
All Utricularia are carnivorous and capture small organisms by means of bladder-like traps.
Terrestrial species tend to have tiny traps that feed on minute prey such as protozoa and rotifers swimming in water-saturated soil.
The traps range in size from 0.2 mm to 1.2 cm.
Aquatic species, such as U. vulgaris (common bladderwort), have bladders that are usually larger and can feed on water fleas (Daphnia), nematodes, even tiny fish, mosquito larvae and young tadpoles.
Despite their small size, the traps are extremely sophisticated.
In aquatic species, prey brush against trigger hairs connected to the trapdoor.
The bladder, when "set", is under negative pressure: when the trapdoor is triggered, the prey, with the water around it, is sucked into the bladder.
Once the bladder is full of water, the door closes again.
The whole process takes only ten to fifteen thousandths of a second.
Bladderworts are unusual and highly specialized plants.
The bladder traps are recognized as one of the most sophisticated structures in the plant kingdom.

A secret ballot is a type of vote where the voter's choices are anonymous.
This is to make bribery or intimidation of voters more difficult.
Secret ballots are good for many different voting systems.
The most basic form may be blank pieces of paper.
The voter writes only his or her choice, then places it into a sealed box.
The box is emptied later for counting.
The French Constitution of 1795 states that "All elections are to be held by secret ballot".
Britain followed later.
The secret ballot was first used in Britain on 15 August 1872 in a by-election.
The original ballot box, sealed in wax with a liquorice stamp, is kept at Pontefract museum.

A grammar school is one of several different types of school in  the United Kingdom and some other English-speaking countries.
The term has been used for several centuries.
Originally, they were schools teaching Latin.
More recently, they are academically-oriented secondary schools.
In the late Victorian era grammar schools were reorganised for secondary education throughout England and Wales.
Scotland had developed a different system.
Grammar schools were also established in British territories overseas, where they have evolved in different ways.
Grammar schools became "selective" in the mid-20th century, after World War II.
This means they selected applicants whom they thought would get the most out of that kind of education.
The selection was done by means of an 11+ test which included an IQ test.
This was designed so that it was more based on native ability, rather than taught learning.
Labour governments in the 1960s and 70s made efforts to replace grammar schools with comprehensive schools.
Comprehensive schools were open to children of all abilities, similar to high schools in the United States.
As a result, in the 1960s and 1970s some grammar schools became fully independent and charged fees.
Many others were abolished or became comprehensive.
In both cases, many of these schools kept "grammar school" in their names.
There are still 164 state-run grammar schools in existence.

It is native to tropical western Africa, in Sierra Leone and Liberia, growing in tropical rainforests.
It is a liana, with a three-stage lifecycle, each with a different shaped leaf, as indicated by its Greek name.

This parasite enters fish through the gills, and then attaches itself.
The female attaches to the fish's tongue, and the male attaches on the gill arches beneath and behind the female.
The female parasite destroys the fish's tongue.
Then it attaches itself to the stub of what was once the tongue and becomes the fish's new tongue.
Cymothoa exigua gets blood through the claws on its front, causing the tongue to atrophy (wither) from lack of blood.
The parasite then replaces the fish's tongue by attaching its own body to the muscles of the tongue stub.
The fish is able to use the parasite just like a normal tongue.
It appears that the parasite does not cause any other damage to the host fish.
Once C. exigua replaces the tongue, some feed on the host's blood and many others feed on fish mucus.
This is the only known case of a parasite replacing the function of a host organ.
There are many species of Cymothoa, but only C. exigua is known to consume and replace its host's tongue.
