History of rail transport in the Netherlands On September 20, 1839, the first train rode through the Netherlands.
It was a short trip from Amsterdam to Haarlem.
The train was called the Arend.
It was a steam locomotive.
The history of the Dutch railways can be divided into six periods starting in the year 1839.
The planning for railways lasted from 1840-1860, the early expansion of the railways, government construction of new railways from 1860-1890, consolidation of the railways from 1890-1938, the 'Nederlandse Spoorwegen' monopoly from 1938-1992, and the time following the end of this monopoly, from 1992-present..
The first modern railway was built in England in 1830.
It ran between the English towns of Liverpool and Manchester.
A Dutch artillery officer, William A. Bake, was there when it opened.
When Bake came back to the Netherlands, he made plans to connect the city of Amsterdam to Amersfoort and Amersfoort to Arnhem.
King William supported Bake's plan.
Unfortunately, his timing was bad.
His plan to find money to build the railroad did not succeed.
Dutch businessmen did not want to invest their money in a Dutch railroad at that time.
They were worried about their investments in Spain.
With no money, his plan did not work.
Belgium and Germany started to copy the English railway tracks, and King William I of the Netherlands did want to be left behind.
With the king's interest, the railways improved and became safer.
The new railways were able to work in the soil of the Netherlands.
King William allowed engineers to study whether a railroad system would be possible in the Netherlands.
But it was difficult to find money to fund the railway tracks.
The king made his decision on August 8, 1837.
Eventaully, the Dutch government decided to pay to built the railroads.
After 2 years, the first railway company was founded.
It was called the Hollandse Ijzeren Spoorweg Maatschappi, or (HIJSM).
They began with the construction of the railway track that connected Amsterdam and Haarlem.
The first steam locomotive to ride this track was a small locomotive called de Arend.
The expansion
After the success of the first railway track that connected Amsterdam to Haarlem.
The railroads started to expand and a new railway company was found.
It was called the ‘Nederlandse Rhijnspoorweg Maatschappij’ (NSR).
They both made the new railroad to Rotterdam The railway would cross everything.
The railway to Rotterdam
The NSR and the HIJSM bought every piece of land to proceed.
But some landowners and farmers didn’t like the idea of a railway crossing their farm, because it could frighten the cows.
There was even a big incident that happened while making a railway track that connected Amsterdam to Rotterdam.
A land owner called Aernout Hendrik van Wickenvoort Crommelin only wanted to sell his piece of land if a train station was built favorable for him.
The HIJSM  and NSR didn’t like that so they tried to make the railway track go around his piece of land.
Unfortunately it failed.
Still Aernout had given them some land to continue.
The NSR and HIJSM lost a lot of money on this incident and it was later called: ‘Het laantje van van der Gaag'.
The railroad was finished in 1847.
The first railway of the NSR
The NSR also wanted to built a railway by their self.
This railway would go from Amsterdam to Utrecht to Arnhem and then on to Germany.
The making of it didn’t went really well because they could not find enough investors.
But luckily was our King William I again the savior of the railroads.
But there was a problem with the constructing of the railway because the Dutch railways were built on Dutch broad gauge and the connection in Germany was made on standard gauge.
The railroad to Utrecht was finished on December 18,  1843, The next stretch to Arnhem on  May, 16 1845.
The final stretch to Germany took 11 years because the other part of the railroad had to be made in Standard gauge.
1860-1890
The Spoorwegnet
In 1860 the Spoorwegnet was founded.
It is a system that connects all the cities with railways built by the government.
In 1863, a new railway company was founded.
It was called the Maatschappij tot Exploitatie van Staatsspoorwegen or SS for short.
This company was not founded by the government.
It was founded by a private group of investors who had acquired a license to use railways built by the state.
The other companies also continued building railroad tracks.
More railway companies were founded.
One was the Noord-Brabants-duitse Spoorweg-Maatschappij, or NBDS, often called S for short.
It was founded to complete the railway track that connected Saint Petersburg, Berlin and London.
1890-1938
The fusion
In the 1800s, railways in the Netherlands were run by many different companies that all had their own rules and trains.
This made rail travel very inconvenient.
In 1890, all the railway companies in the Netherlands were merged and then split into 2 companies.
The HSM and the SS.
The railways were reclassified based on the English model.
Workers on strike
In 1903, the workers at the railway companies went on strike, meaning they stopped working until their bosses met their demands.
They felt their working conditions were very bad.
They earned low wages for very hard work.
The strike was successful.
The bosses agreed to improve working conditions.
When World War I began in 1914, the Netherlands stayed neutral.
Train transportation was then used by armies.
The railways were part of the war because it was easy to transport soldiers and equipment.
The HSM and the SS had to work together very closely.
In 1937, they merged, becoming the "Nederlandse Spoorwegen" or NS.
Evolution of train stations
In total there are 404 railway stations in the Netherlands.
381 stations are managed by the NS.
Some of them are very old looking and some are more modern.
In the past, passengers had to rely on yellow signboards to watch for trains.
There were no escalators.
The Zandvoort station has much of the older style of architecture, while Utrecht CS is new.
Type of trains
There have been many different trains in the Netherlands.
The first were steam trains, then diesel trains and now electric trains.
The first train was called the Arend and it drove from Amsterdam to Haarlem.
The many other steam trains that came after were all named by series and by number, as in series 600.
Diesel trains were cheaper and easier to use than steam trains.
Currently, the only diesel trains still running are called the buffel.
They run on the following lines: Zwolle – Enschede, Zwolle – Kampen, and Apeldoorn – Zutphen.
Most of the trains in the Netherlands today are electric.
They are noticeable by the big electricity masts that give them power.
In the past, there was also a third class, but it has been discontinued.
Almost all the trains today have one day's free Wi-Fi connection so passengers can use the Internet.
In the past, passengers had to buy tickets to take the train, but now they can use OV chipkaarts.

"Youth of the Nation" is the second single off American Christian nu metal band P.O.D.'s fourth studio album Satellite.
The song was released on December 25, 2001.
The song was inspired partially by the Santana High School and Columbine High School shootings.
In a 2008 interview, guitarist Marcos Curiel described it:
"We were rehearsing and writing Satellite a couple of blocks away from the school.
One day on the way to the studio, there were all these helicopters and cars speeding by.
We really didn’t know what was going on.
When we got to the studio, this guy had the news on, and he was like, ‘This kid just went and started blasting fools.’
So we started jamming, and that rhythm just naturally came out then Wuv [Bernardo, drummer] put that drumbeat on it, and the song was born."

The Pentre Ifan dolmen is the largest and best preserved neolithic dolmen in Wales.
It is on the ancient manor  of Pentre Ifan in the civil parish of Nevern, Pembrokeshire, Wales.
The manor was the home of the Bowen family going back to the 11th century.
The dolmen dates from about 3,500 B.C. It may have been used for group burials.
The existing stones form the door, called a portal and main chamber of the tomb.
These would have been covered with a large stone mound about 36.6 m long and 17 m wide.
Some of the stones have been scattered, but at least seven are in their original position.
The capstone is 5.1 m in length, and is thought to to weigh 16 tonnes, and rises 2.4 m above the ground.
It is held up by the narrow tips of three uprights.
These stones make a chamber that is 3 m long, 2 m wide and 3 m high.
A large stone has been used to block the entrance.
William Francis Grimes carried out archaeological diggings at the site in 1936/1937 and 1958/1959.
Small pieces of flint and pottery were discovered during these digs.
This are also signs that there may have been holes dug for some sort of ritual purpose long before the dolmen was set up.
The dolmen is owned and looked after by Cadw, the Welsh Historic Monuments Agency.
The site is well-kept and entrance is free.
It is about 17 km from Cardigan.
It has views down the Nevern Valley to the sea.

Pembrokeshire Coast Path () (also called the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path) is a National Trail in Pembrokeshire in the Wales, in the United Kingdom.
It is a footpath that anyone can walk anytime for free.
It was made a footpath in 1970.
The highest place on the path is Pen yr afr.
It's lowest place is Sandy Haven crossing.
It is  low at the water.
The path goes along coast and people walking on the path will see the water most of the time.
The path starts at Amroth and goes north to Poppit Sands.
A plaque is located at Poppit Sands.
The path used to stop, or start, at Poppit Sands.
Now it goes to St. Dogmaels.
At St. Dogmaels the path connects to another path called the Ceredigion Coast Path.
The Pembrokeshire Coast Path is a part of the Wales Coast Path.
The Pembrokeshire Coast National Park was founded in 1952.
After it was founded, Ronald Lockley did a survey for a path on the coastline.
The region was very rural.
There were villages on the coastline but communication between other villages was very hard.
People often used boats to visit each other.
Lockey reported on this in 1953.
He suggested that a footpath be created to help.
Most of the places the path would go through were public space, so anyone could walk on them without any problems.
Other parts were owned by people, so you could not walk on the path without asking.
They asked the owners if it was okay to use their land for the paths and most people said it as ok.
There are still some areas of the path that go in strange directions because path users cannot walk on the private land.
It took 17 years to build the path.
100 footbridges and 479 stiles were built.
Thousands of stairs were built into the ground.
The path was opened on May 16, 1970 by Wynford Vaughan-Thomas.
Most of the path is located in Pembrokeshire Coast National Park.
The path goes along the Irish Sea.
There are many different types of geological and environmental areas.
There are headlands, cliffs, coves, glacial valleys, and more.
The path goes by 58 beaches and 14 harbors.
Most of the path is easy to walk.
There is one part that goes  high.
There are two areas near the water that it passes which sometimes get flooded.
These parts are at Dale and Sandy Haven.
The path goes through some towns and villages.
These include Tenby, St Davids, Solva and Newport.
Connected trails
There are some trails that connect to the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park.

The rocks under the path are over 300 million years old.
The look of the land that the path goes along is the effect of the Ice Age.
There are a variety of different types of rocks one can see on the path: igneous, pre-Cambrian, and more.
Walkers on the path can see wild flowers during the seasons of Spring and Summer.
There are a lot of birds.
Many of the birds are seabirds.
There are also porpoises, dolphins, and seals in the water off the path.
There are historical sites on the path that date back to Neolithic times.
There are places where there used to be hut circles.
There are former places that people lived in during the Bronze Age and Iron Age.
Most of the land near the path is farmed and people also fish off the path like they did in ancient times, but with modern tools.
The path was named the second best National Geographic's place to visit on a coast in 2011.
The beaches along the path are famous also and have won over 300 awards for their quality, environmentalism and beauty.

In hysteresis the output of a system depends not only on its input, but also on its history of past inputs.
This is because the history affects the value of an internal state.
To predict the future outputs of a system, either its internal state or its history must be known.
The effect may happen because of a lag between input and output.
This effect disappears as the input changes more slowly.
This effect meets the description of hysteresis given above, but is often referred to as rate-dependent hysteresis to distinguish it from hysteresis with a more durable memory effect.
Hysteresis occurs in ferromagnetic materials and ferroelectric materials.
It also occurs in the deformation of some materials (such as rubber bands and shape-memory alloys).
Many artificial systems are designed to have hysteresis: for example, in thermostats and computers.
The Anglesey Coastal Path is a  is a footpath on the island of Anglesey, Wales in the United Kingdom.
The footpath is a part of the Wales Coast Path.
The footpath follows the coast of the island of Anglesey.
It goes around the entire island except in two places.
Those two places are Plas Newydd and Afon Alaw between Llanfachraeth and Llanynghenedl.
The path starts at Holyhead.
It travels through an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
The majority of the path travels through public land with a small amount going through private land.
Owners of the private land have given permission for walkers to pass through their property.
The path is part of the All Wales Coast Path.
The path cost £1.4 million to build.
It was built by two organizations: Menter Môn and Isle of Anglesey County Council.
It was opened on June 9, 2006 by Rhodri Morgan.

The Kármán line is the altitude where space begins.
It is 100 km (about 62 miles) high.
It commonly represents the border between the Earth's atmosphere and outer space.
This definition is accepted by the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale (FAI).
The FAI is an international standard setting and record-keeping body for aeronautics and astronautics.
The line is named after Theodore von Kármán (1881–1963), a Hungarian-American engineer and physicist.
He was active in aeronautics and astronautics.
He was the first to calculate that around this altitude, the atmosphere becomes too thin to support aeronautical flight.
An aircraft at this altitude would have to travel faster than orbital velocity to obtain enough lift to support itself.
There is a sudden increase in temperature of the atmosphere and solar radiation just below the line.
This places the line within the greater thermosphere.
Territorial integrity means that a country should not try to make another country break up or try to take part of the other county's territory.
The Battle of Hampton Roads was a naval battle of the American Civil War.
It was fought on March 8 and 9, 1862 near Hampton Roads, Virginia.
It was an important battle because it was the first combat between ironclad warships.
The Confederate ironclad CSS Virginia tried to break the Union navy blockade of Hampton Roads.
The blockade prevented all commerce with Norfolk and Richmond, Virginia.
On March 8, the Virginia sank and damaged several union battleships.
On March 8, the Union ironclad USS Monitor arrived and fought the Virginia.
The battle lasted for several hours.
But neither ship could defeat the other.
Both ships left the fight thinking they had won.
But the Confederates failed to break the blockade.
Both ironclads were lost soon after the battle.
When Norfolk fell in May 1862, the CSS Virginia was destroyed by its crew so it wouldn't be captured.
The USS Monitor was lost in a storm near Cape Hatteras on December 31, 1862.
Her wreck was found in 1974.
The Battle of Hampton Roads did not make a big difference in the outcome of the Civil War.
But it changed the way people fought wars with ships.
The battle proved that ironclad warships were much stronger than wooden ships.
After this battle, the U.S. and other countries stopped building wooden ships.
They started building iron warships instead.

Dumb Starbucks was a coffee shop opened by comedian Nathan Fielder.
It was closed just after three days for not having a proper health license.
Because the shop was a parody making fun of the real Starbucks company, Fielder was able to use their logo.
Items and beverages
In a normal Starbucks store, you will usually see a board with the beverages that you can purchase.
But in Dumb Starbucks, it had the word "Dumb" in front of the name of the beverage you would see at Starbucks.
For example, if you saw the Vanilla Latte at Starbucks, in Dumb Starbucks, it would be called "Dumb Vanilla Latte".
Usually Starbucks has some other items, such as music CDs, but Dumb Starbucks also took the same music CDs and wrote the word "Dumb" in front of them.
Nathan Fielder had planned to open another Dumb Starbucks in Brooklyn, New York City, but he did not try to open one, even with health documents.
Many people did not like Fielder and his new parody.
Some people felt he was making fun of them being Starbucks customers, others said his coffee was terrible.
The cuisine of the United States refers to food prepared in the United States.
The European Colonization of the Americas gave way to introduction of many ingredients and cooking styles.
These styles extended to the 19th and 20th centuries.
Seafood have been in the United States since pre-Colonial times.
Native American ate fish and other seafood in those times.
Pizza is based on the traditional Italian dish which was brought to the U.S. by Italian immigrants.
It varies, however, based on the style and development region.
Middle Eastern or Halal food is also popular in the United States.
The cuisine of the Southern United States is food prepared across the Southern United States.
Foods prepared or from the Southern United States include corn, tomatoes, squash along with other fruits or vegetables.

George Eliot is reported to have been a very bad person.
He earned his living as a con artist (someone who gains the trust of another and then tricks them out of their money).
He was well known as a rapist and suspected of being a murderer.
Eliot became a spy for Robert Dudley, the Earl of Leicester.
This was to avoid a charge from the last crime he committed.
Eliot agreed to seek out Catholics who were not conforming to the rules of the state because the Church of England was the official state religion.
He would then hand them over to the authorities for punishment.
At Lyford Grange in Berkshire (now Oxfordshire), he tracked down the Jesuit priest, Edmund Campion.
Eliot called for a magistrate from Abingdon.
He arrested Campion and had him sent to London for trial and execution.

Wrexham Glyndŵr University is a university in Wales.
It is named after a Welsh national hero, Owain Glyndŵr.
The university opened in 2008.
Before becoming a university, it had been the Wrexham School of Arts and Science which opened in 1887.
It has over 9000 students, and as well as the Wrexham campus it also has campuses at St. Asaph, Northop, and London.
The Battle of Bryn Glas was fought on 22 June 1402.
This was the major battle of the Welsh Revolt (1400-1415).
The rebel forces of Wales, led by Owain Glyndŵr defeated the English army led by Sir Edmund Mortimer.
The exact location of the battle is not known, but research shows that it was probably on Bryn Glas hill, to the east, west and south of the church of St. Mary.
The English attacked the Welsh forces who were on the top of the hill.
During the battle, Mortimer was captured by the Welsh.
The bodies of the dead English, were left on the battlefield; later the bones were collected and buried in the churchyard.

A thermostat is a sensor which keeps a heating system near to a desired temperature or setpoint.
It is a control system.
The thermostat works by switching heating or cooling devices on or off.
This is what happens in a central heating system or an air conditioner.
In some systems it works by switching a 'heat transfer fluid' off or on as needed to keep the set temperature.
The name is derived from the Greek words thermos "hot" and statos "a standing".
The simplest kind of thermostat is a bimetal strip which bends as the temperature rises, and at a set point breaks the circuit of an electrical current.
Kitchen toasters use this kind of thermostat.
Because they control a system, thermostats are examples of feedback devices which maintain a steady local environment against temperature changes outside the outside world.
In cybernetics, the thermostat is an example of a machine which uses feedback to maintain the stability of a heating system.
In Norse mythology, Sæhrímnir is the name of the pig killed and cooked every night at Valhalla.
He is the never-ending food source for the einherjar (warriors who died in battle and were brought to Valhalla).

Reginald Grey, 3rd Baron Grey de Ruthyn (c. 1362 – 30 September 1440), was a powerful Welsh marcher lord.
He became Baron after his father's death in July 1388.
His main military actions were against the Welsh, during the rebellion of Owain Glyndŵr.
Reginald de Grey was responsible for giving out royal demands in the Northern March.
This included calling the local nobility and gentry and their men to Royal and military service.
He was had been in a long-running legal argument with Glyndŵr, claiming part of Glyndwr's land as his own.
Under King Richard II the case had been found in favour of Glyndŵr.
When Henry IV became king, Grey took over the land.
Welsh rebellion
Glyndŵr tried to take legal action in 1400, but the court told him to give the land to Grey.
Grey also did not tell Glyndŵr that his men were needed service in Scotland until the last moment.
This made it impossible for Glyndŵr to send the men or even send an explanation for not sending them.
Refusing or failing to follow an order of the King was treason.
Glyndŵr's lands were would be taken until he could prove he was loyal to the king or receive punishment.
On 16 September Glyndŵr and his brothers burned Grey's property.
For three days his Welsh forces attacked the countryside of Flintshire and Denbighshire.
On 24 September, Glyndwr's forces were defeated at Welshpool.
De Grey asked Glyndŵr to a meeting, but arrived with a large force, and attempted to capture Glyndŵr.
Glyndŵr escaped and went into hiding, becoming a traitor in English eyes.
King Henry took the land of Glyndŵr's friends, and gave them to John Beaufort, his half-brother.
The rebellion spread across Wales by 1402.
Lord Grey was taken prisoner by Glyndŵr's forces in an ambush near Ruthin in January.
A ransom of 10,000 marks was asked for him.
Lord Grey was made to promise not to fight against Glyndŵr again.
King Henry IV sent 11 knights to meet with Glyndŵr.
They paid the money to release Grey.
Lord Grey and his family would have been expected to repay the money.
Grey was a member of the Council which governed England during the absence of Henry V in France in 1415.
He later fought against the French in the Hundred Years' War in 1420 and 1421.
He also served as Governor of Ireland.

An ORCID is a code to identify someone who writes academic articles.
ORCID stands for Open Researcher and Contributor ID.
Each person can have their own ORCID.
ORCIDs make it easy to know which articles someone has written, even if they change their name.
They also helps tell who has written which articles, if there is more than one writer with the same name.
ORCID was started on 16 October 2012.
ORCIDs usually have four groups of four numbers.
An example of a person with an ORCID is John Wilbanks.
His ORCID is https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4510-0385.
That is also the web address of the page about him, on the ORCID website.
His ORCID can also be written as "ORCID: 0000-0002-4510-0385".
Sometimes an ORCID has an "X" instead of a number at the end.
An example of this is Nick Jennings's ORCID.
His is https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0166-248X. The final number (or "X") is a check digit.

The Galveston Hurricane of 1900 hit the city of Galveston, Texas on September 8, 1900.
This hurricane was very large, and it is the deadliest hurricane in the history of the United States.
It killed between 8,000 and 12,000 people.
It was a "Category 4 hurricane" on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale.
Prelude to the great storm
The U.S. National Weather Service was very simple in 1900.
They did not have good information on what the storm was doing.
As a result, they could not give people advance warnings.
Galveston was located on a sandbar island off the coast of Texas.
It was only about nine feet above sea level.
The population was about 38,000.
On the morning of September 8, 1900, nobody knew that 8,000 of that number would be gone by the next day.
The hurricane
The Galveston hurricane began developing about August 30, 1900 in the middle Atlantic Ocean.
It was still a tropical storm when it moved to Cuba on September 4.
It hit Key West on September 6.
At that point it became a full hurricane.
It was a Category 4 hurricane when it got near the Texas coast.
In the early afternoon of September 8 it hit with little warning.
By the next morning it was gone and so was much of Galveston.
After that, it moved back east as a tropical storm over the U.S. The damage was over $30,000,000.
Galveston began rebuilding almost right away.
A new seawall was built and many buildings were raised several feet.
But it could not recover completely.
The storm convinced most in the shipping industry to move to Houston with its safer harbor.
Galveston would never again be the busiest shipping port in Texas.

Chi-squared test (or  test) is a statistical hypothesis test.
It usually tests the hypothesis that "the experimental data does not differ from untreated data".
That is a null hypothesis.
The distribution of the test statistic is a chi-squared distribution when the null hypothesis is true.
Tests for distribution check that the values follow a given probability distribution.
Tests for independence check that the values are independent; if this is the case, no value can be left out without losing information.
Tests for homogeneity: These check that all samples taken have the same probability distribution, or are from the same set of values.
Probability theory talks about events which occur with a given (possibly unknown) probability.
Usually, when it talks about several events occurring, it assumes that if one event occurs, this does not change the probability of the other events occurring.
More specifically, two events  and  are called independent (written as ), if the probability of  occurring is the same whether  is assumed to have occurred or not.
Alternatively,  and  are independent precisely when the probability of them occurring together is equal to the product of their individual probabilities.
Abraham de Moivre was a French mathematician.
He is known for his works on probability theory.
He also did a lot of research in trigonometry.
De Moivre's formula connects complex numbers and trigonometry.
As he was a Huguenot, he was forced to emigrate to England.
He was a friend of Isaac Newton, Edmund Halley, and James Stirling.
Among his fellow Huguenot exiles in England, he was a colleague of the editor and translator Pierre des Maizeaux.
De Moivre wrote a book on probability theory, The Doctrine of Chances, said to have been prized by gamblers.
De Moivre first discovered Binet's formula, the closed-form expression for Fibonacci numbers linking the nth power of the golden ratio φ to the nth Fibonacci number.

The Viverravidae are an extinct  family of early mammalian carnivores.
They are in the superfamily Miacoidea, and lived from the early Palaeocene to the Eocene.
They first appeared in the Paleocene of North America about 60 million years ago.
Viverravidae is a monophyletic family.
In viverravids, the number of molars is reduced to two and the skull is long.
They are probably not related to any living carnivorans.
The viverravids were previously thought to be the earliest carnivorans.
A recent study of their skull morphology puts them outside the order Carnivora.
An assisted living residence is a popular housing alternative for people with disabilities or for adults who cannot live independently.
