He is an important part of both the first and last episodes of the show.
Q is first presented as a cosmic force judging humanity to see if it is becoming a threat to the universe.
However, as the series continues, his role morphs more into one of a teacher to Picard and the human race generally, although he often does this in ways that seem destructive or disruptive or meant for his own fun.
Other times, notably during "Deja Q" and Voyager, Q appears to the crew seeking assistance.
For example, one time all the other Q turned Q human as a punishment.
Gene Roddenberry chose the letter "Q" in honor of his friend Janet Quarton.

Fruit preserves is the name of specially prepared fruit, where the main preserving agent is sugar, and sometimes acid.
Very often, they are stored in glass jars, and are used as a condiment, or a spread.
Common examples of fruit preserves are jams, jellies  and marmalade.
Before refrigeration, there were various ways of preserving food.
One was to keep it very dry (e.g. beef jerky).
The other was to bottle it.
In bottles, sugar is used for sweet fruits, but vinegar (acetic acid) is used for savoury items.
As the world was not so warm in past centuries, it was possible for houses in the colder zones to keep an ice pit for much of the year.
That way iced dishes could be provided.
So fruit preserves are something of our past which survives to the present.

Lots of people say Southern Illinois starts from Springfield and southward.
A number of others Carbondale north to Springfield don't lay claim to that region of Illinois as being that of Southern Illinois, though.
Illinois is in the Midwestern United States.
But Southern Illinois has been called far more typical for the Upland South, similar to nearby Kentucky, Missouri and Tennessee, rather than the Midwest.

These small Illinois towns include Athens, Mount Vernon, Urbana and Effingham.
The movement is called New Illinois.
Under the movement, Southern and Downstate Illinois would be entirely separated from Chicago.
The large city would become the 51st state in the United States.
There are lots of cities or towns with a large number of people in Southern Illinois.
These include, dependent on references and views of the population of the area and those outside: Springfield, Alton, O'Fallon, Collinsville, Carbondale, Cairo and Mount Vernon.
The region also involves St. Louis and Cape Girardeau (both in Missouri), Memphis and Nashville (both in Tennessee), and Evansville, Indiana.
Southern Illinois was covered by the Shawnee National Forest.
The area also contains hilly landscape.

Southern Illinois happens being on the border between humid continental climate (Köppen climate classification Dfa) and humid subtropical climate (Köppen climate classification Cfa).
The area doesn't have any large mountains or large bodies of water to moderate its temperature.
That means Southern Illinois areas are prone to both cold Arctic air and hot, humid tropical air from the Gulf of Mexico.
Along with the rest of the Midwestern United States, such areas are home to some of the largest temperature extremes in the world.
The Southern Illinois area has four distinct seasons.
Spring is the wettest season.
It has uneven severe weather.
This involves severe thunderstorms, tornadoes or winter storms.
This season only has occasional and brief rest.
Humidity often makes the heat index rise to temperatures feeling well above .
Fall is mild with lower humidity.
It can, however, make irregular bouts of heavy rainfall with the first snow flurries.
This usually happens during late November.
Winters are cold with periodic snow.
During this season, temperatures often below freezing.
Thaws are usually frequent.
Winter storm systems, in particular the Alberta clippers and Panhandle hooks, often bring days of heavy freezing rain, ice pellets and snowfall.
The normal high temperature in July is 90 °F (32 °C).
The normal low temperature in January is 21 °F (−6 °C).
This, though, varies between one year and another.
Both  and  temperatures can be seen on an average 2 or 3 days per year.
The official record low is  on February 2, 1884 in Harrisburg.
The region's record high is  on July 14, 1954 in East St. Louis.
Southern Illinois has thunderstorms about 50 days a year on average.
Thunderstorms add to just over half of the area's overall precipitation.
Mainly in the spring, these storms will often be severe, with high winds, large hail and tornadoes.
Southern Illinois has been affected on more than one occasion by Southern Illinois tornado history|very damaging tornadoes.
A period of warm weather late in autumn known as the Indian summer will sometimes occur.

Politics of Southern Illinois
Southern Illinois was historically a conservative and Democratic region.
Though the political parties have changed, Southern Illinois has almost always voted for Democratic candidates more times than not since 1818.
Democratic roots in Southern Illinois relate to the area's shared cultures with the South.
The latter United States area was where the Democratic Party, before the American Civil War and after Reconstruction, was the ruling party before the 1960s.
Democratic affiliations were tightened in the Great Depression and Franklin D. Roosevelt's administration.
There are, however, some long-time Republican counties in the region.
The most well-known is Edwards County.
But in the last few decades, Southern Illinois has trended GOP due to the national support for them across rural areas.
Northern Illinois has trended towards Democrats due to lots of that area's people leaving from  in and near the Democratic-leaning Cook County and nearby counties.
Democratic candidates were fierce in the counties across Southern Illinois until around 1996.
Beginning from the presidential election of 2000 on, Democratic officials weren't doing well like expected across Southern Illinois even if they had won almost very constantly.
In the early months of the Civil War, several local people in Williamson County voted for secession from the Union.
On April 15, 1861, the citizens of Marion made a promise calling for the division of Illinois and the secession of Southern Illinois.
The promise was soon rescinded meaning canceled).
The General Benjamin Prentiss, however, left a company of men near Marion for defense as he passed by on his way to a garrison in Cairo.
Despite some southern sympathizers, most young men in the region joined the Union Army.

Frederick "Fred" Harold Hale (December 1, 1890 – November 19, 2004) was an American supercentenarian, beekeeper and railway post officer, and at the time of his death the oldest living man.
Both of his parents lived to age 91 and his youngest son, Fred Hale Sr, to age 97.
He married Flora Mooers, who died in 1979, in 1910, and had two daughters, Muriel (1910–1970) and Carrie (1913–1992) and three sons, Robert (1916–1918) who died in the Spanish flu, Norman (born 1920) and Fred (born 1921).

Kitab al-Futūh () is an important hadith and akhbari collection, compiled by Sayf ibn Umar.
It is al-Tabari's main source for the Ridda wars and the early Muslim conquests.
It also contains important information on the structure of early Muslim armies and government.
Currently, a facsimile edition of the fragments preserved in the Al-Imam University in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
The Arabic word Kitab (), literally means 'book' or 'revelation'.
It is derived from the Semitic root K-T-B () which is related to writing.
The Arabic definite article al- usually means 'of' or 'the'.
Futuh ()  is the plural noun of the Arabic word Fatah () which means 'conquest'.
Sayf ibn Umar, the compiler of the book, was from Kufa and lived in Baghdad.
He traveled throughout Iraq during the rule of the Abbasid Caliphate.
The book primarily discuss the early Muslim conquests and wars.
It also features information about the assassination of the third caliph Uthman.
Abdullah ibn Saba and his followers are mentioned in the book as well.
The work also contains a brief account, on the authority of Ibn Abbas, of the way in which Paul corrupted Christian doctrines by persuading three of his followers, Yaqūb, Nasṭūr and Malkūn, of the divinity of Īsā (Jesus).
Sayf ibn Umar is considered reliable.
W. F. Tucker and Ella Landau-Tasseron note that although Sayf may have been an unscrupulous hadith collector, this should not detract from his general reliability as a transmitter of historical information (akhbārī).
Tucker adds that accusations of bias could equally be leveled at other akhbārīs contemporary to Sayf, including the Shi'a historian Abu Mikhnaf.
Fuat Sezgin, Albrecht Noth, and Martin Hinds have also challenged Wellhausen's views and placed Sayf on an equal footing with other traditionalists.
Linda D. Lau and A. R. Armush also regard Sayf ibn Umar as reliable and accept his accounts and the role of the Saba'iyya at the Battle of the Camel.

The Nephilim (; ) are mysterious beings or people mentioned in the Hebrew Bible.
They are large and strong; the word Nephilim is loosely translated as giants in some Bibles but left untranslated in others.
Some Jews think they were fallen angels.
They are mentioned in Genesis, Numbers and Ezekiel in the Hebrew Bible.
People aren't sure who the Nephilim were.
The Biblical book Numbers 13:33 says that they later lived in Canaan at the time that Israel conquered Canaan.
A similar Hebrew term, read as "Nephilim" by some scholars, or as the word "fallen" by others, appears in the Biblical book Ezekiel 32:27.
What are Nephilim
Some people think Nephilim are Giants, others Fallen Angels, others to be the result of angels mating with humans, and some that they descended from the Biblical figures of Seth and Cain.
Brown-Driver-Briggs thought that nephilim are "giants".
Robert Baker Girdlestone thought that they are 'those that cause others to fall down'.
Ronald Hendel thinks that it means 'ones who have fallen'.
The majority of ancient biblical translations think they were "giants".
Symmachus thought they were "the violent ones" and Aquila thought they were either "the fallen ones" or "the ones falling [upon their enemies]".
Some Jews believe that the Nephilim had children called Elioud.
Aramaics think that Nephilim refer to the children of Orion.
J. C. Greenfield thinks that the Nephilim is based on bad things in Sumerian beliefs.
Early Arabs thought that fallen angels were sent to Earth looking like men, and they mated with humans.
Mentions of Nephilim in the Hebrew Bible
In Genesis 6:4:The Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bore children to them; the same were the mighty men that were of old, the men of renown.
In Numbers 13:32–33,:And there we saw the Nephilim, the sons of Anak, who come of the Nephilim; and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.
In Ezekiel 32:27: They lie with the warriors, the Nephilim of old, who descended to Sheol with their weapons of war.
They placed their swords beneath their heads and their shields upon their bones, for the terror of the warriors was upon the land of the living.
Idea about nephilim fossils
Cotton Mather thought that fossilized leg bones and teeth discovered near Albany, New York, in 1705, were the remains of Nephilim who died in a great flood, though paleontologists thought they were mastodon remains instead.

The spotless crake, sooty rail, pūweto, puweto, or putoto (Zapornia tabuensis) is a bird in the family Rallidae.
It lives in the Philippines, Australia, New Zealand, other parts of Polynesia, and two subspecies have been found high in the hills in New Guinea.
Scientists do not know much about them because they hide so well.
The spotless crake is about half the size of a blackbird.
It is about 20 cm long.
It weighs about 45 g.  It has blue-gray and black feathers.
It has orange-pink legs.
It has a black beak.
Spotless crakes live in wetlands that have fresh water, not salt water.
They look for food where the plants grow close together.
Sometimes they will walk out on bare mud, but they run back into the plants if they think they are in danger.
The spotless crake eats the seeds of many plants, but it also eats animals without bones, for example beetles and worms.
This bird is crepuscular, which means it looks for food at dawn and dusk.
Spotless crakes form one-on-one pairs to lay eggs.
They build nests out of pieces of grass woven together.
The nest is 30-50 cm above the water.
Sometimes they build platforms near the nest.
The female lays 2-5 eggs at a time.
The eggs take 20-22 days to hatch.
The chicks stay in the nest for about 4 days.
They can catch some of their own food at that age.
Both parents care for the chicks for 4-5 months.
Human beings change their wetlands into farms.
Introduced species brought by humans can also kill the crake.
