The Northern white rhinoceros, or the Northern square-lipped rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum cottoni), is one of the two subspecies of the white rhinoceros.
These animals are extinct in the wild, but there were currently seven left in captivity.
These seven lived in the Dvůr Králové Zoo in the Czech Republic.
Four of the seven rhinoceroses were transported to Ol Pejeta Conservancy in Kenya, Africa, where scientists hope they will successfully breed and save this subspecies from extinction.
One of three remaining in the Czech Republic died in late May 2011.
The two other rhinoceroses now live at the San Diego Zoo's Safari Park in California.
The northern white rhinoceros eats mainly grass, and other low lying vegetation.
They can live for around 40 to 65 years.

A pagoda is any kind of tower with multiple eaves.
They are common in eastern and southeastern Asia.
Most pagodas are built for religious purposes.
They are usually Buddhist.
Some are used as Taoist temples.
The modern design for pagodas comes from the stupas of ancient Nepal.
These were first built during the 3rd century BC.
This kind of architecture has spread across Asia, taking on many differences as details specific to different regions are made a part of the overall design.
Stupas were used to house Buddhist relics.
Later, the architecture of Chinese towers and Chinese pavilions blended into pagoda architecture.
This eventually spread to Southeast Asia.
The pagoda's original purpose was to house relics and sacred writings.

He was the oldest of fourteen children born to Erasmus Dryden and wife Mary Pickering.
As a boy Dryden lived in the nearby village of Titchmarsh, Northamptonshire.
In 1644 he was sent to Westminster School.
In the late twentieth century a house at Westminster was founded in his name.
In 1650 Dryden went up to Trinity College, Cambridge.
After graduating, he went to London.
Dryden got work with the Secretary of State, John Thurloe.
On 1 December 1663 Dryden married the royalist sister of Sir Robert Howard—Lady Elizabeth.
His first play, The Wild Gallant was in 1663.
But from 1668 on he was contracted to make three plays a year for the King's Company.
In 1693 Dryden famously said about English language that "We have yet no prosody, not so much tolerable dictionary, or a grammar, so that our language is in a manner barbarous."
Following the century's ill formed ideas like latinising English, Dryden considered English as inferior and before expressing anything English in his works he transcribed them first into Latin.
He promoted the need of a regulatory body in English like the French Academy, this idea has been carried on by others after his death like by Daniel Fefoe, John Adams and other organized bodies into the 21st century.
This arresting in change was deplored in each ages.

Philippa of Hainault (24 June 1313  15 August 1369) was the queen of Edward III of England.
Philippa was the daughter of William I, Count of Hainaut, nicknamed the Good, and Joan of Valois, the granddaughter of Philip III of France.
King Edward II wanted an alliance with Flanders to benefit England.
He sent Bishop Stapledon to choose a good wife for Prince Edward.
He chose Philippa who was about nine years old at that time.
Four years later Philippa was betrothed to Prince Edward.
Philippa married Edward at York Minster, on 24 January 1328.
This was eleven months after he was made King.
The real rulers of the kingdom were his mother, Queen Dowager Isabella and her lover Roger Mortimer, 1st Earl of March.
They jointly acted as his regents.
The couple lived at Woodstock Palace in Oxfordshire.
Philippa was crowned queen on 4 March 1330 at Westminster Abbey.
She was almost six months pregnant.
She gave birth to her first son, Edward, the following June just nine days before her seventeenth birthday.
In October 1330, King Edward began to rule.
He ordered the arrest of his mother and Mortimer.
Mortimer was killed for treason.
Queen Dowager Isabella was sent to Castle Rising in Norfolk, where she spent the rest of her life.
Philippa went with Edward on his trips to Scotland, and the European continent in his early campaigns of the Hundred Years' War.
She acted as regent in England on several times when her husband was away from his kingdom.
On 15 August 1369, Philippa died of an illness similar to dropsy in Windsor Castle at the age of fifty-six.
By all accounts, her forty-year marriage to Edward had been happy.
Even though he had an affair with her lady-in-waiting, Alice Perrers, during the later years.
It was founded in 1341 by one of her chaplains, Robert de Eglesfield, in her honour.

Anne of Bohemia (11 May 1366 – 7 June 1394) was the queen of Richard II of England.
She was the oldest daughter of Charles IV, Holy Roman Emperor and Elizabeth of Pomerania.
Many people did not like the marriage.
It did not bring money and very little other benefits.
Richard gave 20,000 florins (around £4,000,000 in today's value) in payment to her brother Wenceslas.
The only benefit, which was said to be small, was that England could trade freely in both Bohemian lands, and lands of the Holy Roman Empire.
Anne and King Richard II were married in Westminster Abbey on 22 January 1382.
The wedding was the fifth royal wedding in Westminster Abbey.
It was not followed by any other royal wedding in Westminster Abbey for another 537 years.
They were married for 12 years, but had no children.
Anne's death from plague in 1394 at Sheen Manor was hard for Richard.
His later unwise conduct lost him the throne.
Richard married his second wife, Isabella of Valois, on 31 October 1396.

Catherine of Valois (27 October 1401 – 3 January 1437) was the queen of Henry V of England and the mother of Henry VI of England.
She was the daughter of King Charles VI of France and his wife Isabelle of Bavaria.
Catherine had a secret relationship with Owen Tudor.
Through this she became the grandmother of Henry VII of England.
In May 1420, a peace treaty was made between England and France.
Charles made Henry of England his heir.
Catherine and Henry were married at the Parish Church of St John or at Troyes Cathedral on 2 June 1420.
Catherine went to England with her new husband.
She was crowned queen in Westminster Abbey on 23 February 1421.
Catherine gave birth to Prince Henry on 6 December 1421 at Windsor.
The boy and his father would never see each other.
During the siege of Meaux, Henry V had a fatal illness (dysentery) and died on 31 August 1422, just before his 35th birthday.
Catherine was not quite 21 and was left a widow and Dowager Queen of England.
Charles VI then died.
This made the young Henry VI king of England and English-occupied northern France.
The Parliament made a rule that the Dowager Queen could not marry without the King's approval.
If the Queen remarried without the king's consent, the husband would lose his lands and possessions, although any children of the marriage would still be members of the royal family.
Parliament also said the king could only give permission when reached his majority age.
At the time the bill was written, the king was only six years old.
Catherine entered into a relationship with Owen Tudor of Wales.
It is unclear if they were ever married.
Owen and Catherine had at least six children.
Edmund, Jasper and Owen were all born away from court.
They had two daughters, Tacinda, who married Reginald Grey, 7th Baron Grey de Wilton and Margaret who became a nun.
In historical fiction
Catherine of Valois is the subject of Rosemary Hawley Jarman's novel "Crown in Candlelight" (1978)
In the book, "The Queen's Secret" by Jean Plaidy, Catherine is the title character.
William Shakespeare's play Henry V depicts Catherine of Valois' marriage to Henry V of England after the Battle of Agincourt.
Dedwydd Jones' novel, published in 2002, "The Lily and the Dragon" , tells the story of Owain Tudor and Catherine of Valois.
Vanora Bennett's novel "Blood Royal" (2009) is based on the life of Catherine of Valois.
Anne Neville (11 June 1456  16 March 1485) was Princess of Wales as the wife of Edward of Westminster and was the queen of Richard III of England.
She had just one son, Edward.
She was the daughter of Richard Neville, 16th Earl of Warwick,
Anne was formally betrothed to Queen Margaret's son, Edward of Westminster at the Chateau d'Amboise in France.
They were married in Angers Cathedral probably on 13 December 1470.
Because of the death of Prince Edward at the Battle of Tewkesbury on 4 May 1471, she was taken prisoner along with Queen Margaret.
She was taken first to Coventry and then to the Duke of Clarence's house in London.
The Duke of Clarence was Richard's (the future King's) brother and married to Anne's sister Isabella.
He wanted to keep all the Neville money and would not let her leave.
Richard rescued Anne.
They were married the next year.
The wedding of Anne Neville and Richard, Duke of Gloucester (later Richard III of England) took place on 12 July 1472, at Westminster Abbey.
They lived in Middleham Castle.
Upon her marriage, she was called Duchess of Gloucester.
They had only one child, Edward, born at Middleham around 1473.
On 9 April 1483, Edward IV died.
Richard was named Lord Protector for his 12-year-old nephew Edward V. On 25 June 1483, Edward was said to be illegitimate.
Richard took the throne as King Richard III.
Anne was crowned on 6 July 1483.
Her son was made Prince of Wales.
Edward died suddenly on 9 April 1484, at Sheriff Hutton, while his parents were absent.
He was then 10 years old.
After the death of his son and heir, rumours said that Richard planned to divorce Anne and marry his niece, Elizabeth of York.
There is little evidence for this.
After the death of her son, Anne began to raise Richard's nephew, Edward, Earl of Warwick, the nine-year-old son of George of Clarence.
Richard made the boy his heir.
After Anne died, Richard quickly named another nephew, John de la Pole, Earl of Lincoln, as his heir.

Goncharova became famous in Russia for her Futurist work such as The Cyclist and her later Rayonist works.
They organised lecture evenings and Goncharova wrote and illustrating a book in Futurist style.
In 1913, she began to design ballet costumes and sets for Diaghilev's Ballets Russes and elsewhere.

She became a French citizen in 1939.

Cacus is a character in Roman mythology.
He was a hideous, three-headed, fire-belching shepherd who lived in a cave in the Aventine Forest in Italy.
His cave was covered with the bones of the people he killed.
Human skulls and human arms were hanging above the cave entrance.
Cacus' parents were Hephaestus and Medusa.
Hercules had stolen the Geryon's cattle.
He was driving the herd through Italy when Cacus crossed his path.
Cacus stole some of the animals.
He dragged them backwards to his cave to confuse Hercules.
The next morning, Hercules missed the animals at once.
He went to Cacus' cave.
Cacus had put a huge rock at the entrance but Hercules tossed it aside.
Cacus tried to drive Hercules off by belching fire.
Hercules grabbed him and "battered his face to a pulp."
Hercules put together an altar to Zeus.
He later set up his own worship at the site.
Some say it was not Hercules who killed Cacus but a huge shepherd named Garanus or Recaranus, a friend of Hercules'.

Quartzite is a hard metamorphic rock.
It is formed when sandstone is squeezed and heated under a chain of mountains.
Although pure quartzite is white, it usually occurs in shades of pink and red.
This happens when it contains some iron oxide (Fe2O3).
Other colours, such as yellow and orange, are due to other mineral impurities.
When sandstone is changed to quartzite, the individual quartz grains and cement material recrystallizes.
Most of the original texture of the sandstone is destroyed by the metamorphism.
Minor amounts of cementing materials, iron oxide, silica, carbonate and clay, often move when this is happening.
It causes streaks and lens shapes to form in the quartzite.

In quantum physics, the Stefan-Boltzmann law (sometimes called Stefan's Law) states that the black-body radiation energy emitted by a given object is directly proportional to the temperature of the object raised to the fourth power.
The equation for this law is:
R=σT4
where σ is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant, which is equal to 5.670 373(21) x 10-8 W m-2 K-4, and where R is the energy radiated per unit surface area and per unit time.
T is temperature, which is measured in Kelvin scale.
Although this law is accurate and helpful, it is only usable for the energy radiated by blackbodies.
