Anjou () is a former county, duchy (1360) and province centred on the city of Angers in the lower Loire Valley of western France.
Its traditional Latin name was Andegavia.
Anjou, or then the Angevin march (border lands) formed the border between Neustria and Aquitaine.
It also bordered between Neustria and Brittany.
Sitting on a black slate rock was the Roman fortress of Angers.
It guarded the rivers Mayenne and Loire that flowed around it.
Anjou became a part of England from 1151-1199, when Henry II inherited the county.
He became the Count of Anjou in addition to his other titles.
His (third) son Richard the Lionheart became count after his father.
At the peak of its power the Angevin Empire spread from Ulster to the Pyrenees.
Richard had no legitimate issue, so in 1199 Anjou passed to his nephew, Arthur of Brittany.
He was the son of Geoffrey, Duke of Brittany.
The Crown of England passed to Henry II’s fifth son and Richard’s youngest brother, John.
Arthur was taken prisoner by King John in 1203 and was never seen again.
In 1204, Anjou was taken back by Philip II of France.
It was later elevated to a duchy for Prince Louis, the second son of John II of France.
It remained a duchy until the French Revolution.
Today, Anjou corresponds largely to the present-day département of Maine-et-Loire.
The Transfiguration is an event in the life of Jesus Christ described in the Gospel of Luke, Gospel of Matthew, and Gospel of Mark.
The disciples go up a mountain with Jesus.
He begins to shine, and meets with Moses and Elijah.
A voice from a cloud says, "this is my beloved Son: hear him" (Luke 9:35).

The National People's Army (NPA; , NVA) was the armed forces of East Germany.
The NPA was founded on 1 March 1956.
It developed from the Kasernierte Volkspolizei (Barracked People's Police), which was started in 1952.
Serving with the army was voluntary at first.
Conscription was introduced on 24 January 1962.
Conscription was for male citizens between the ages of 18 and 26.
If they were selected, they had to serve in the NPA for 18 months.
The NVA was at its largest in 1987.
It had about 175,000 soldiers at this time.
The NVA was modeled on Soviet military philosophy.
Its leadership and operations were governed by the officer corp.
The non-commissioned officer corps was limited in terms of authority and responsibility, unlike in the West German army.
There were also political officers throughout the NVA, whose job it was to guarantee the loyalty of the military to the ruling political party.
The Landstreitkräfte (Land Forces) with a strength of 120,000 soldiers.
The Volksmarine (People's Navy) with a strength of 16,300 sailors.
The Luftstreitkräfte/Luftverteidigung (Air Forces/Air Defense) with a strength of 39,000 airmen.
The Grenztruppen der DDR (Border Troops of the GDR) with a strength of 50,000 border guards.
The NVA also had a large number of reserve and paramilitary forces.
These could be called to serve during a crisis.
The NVA was merged into the Bundeswehr in October 1990 upon the reunification of Germany.
The merging of the two German militaries was not done equally.
Many non-commissioned officers and almost all commissioned officers were not accepted into the Bundeswehr.
Instead, they were discharged from service.
Those who were given a place in the Bundeswehr were usually demoted by one rank.
Most of the barracks were closed and much of the NVA's equipment was sold or donated to other nations.

Vestris was appointed a soloist at the Paris Opéra in 1776, premier danseur in 1778, and premier sujet de la danse in 1780.
He performed in the first production of Jean-Georges Noverre's Les Petits Rien and in  Christoph Willibald Gluck's Alceste.
In 1780, he began a successful association with the King's Theatre in London.

Linear independence is a concept from linear algebra.
It is used to talk about vector spaces.
Each vector space has a null vector.
This vector is expressed as a linear combination (a sum) of other vectors.
A set of these vectors is called linearly independent if and only if all of them are needed to express this null vector.
This is equivalent to saying that at least one of the vectors can be expressed as a linear combination of the others.
If the vectors are not linearly independent, they are called linearly dependent.
Here the first three vectors are linearly independent; but the fourth vector equals nine times the first plus five times the second plus four times the third, so the four vectors together are linearly dependent.
Linear dependence is a property of the family, not of any particular vector; for example in this case we could just as well write the first vector as a linear combination of the last three.

The Tyndall effect is when light is scattered by particles of matter in its path.
It makes a beam of light visible by lighting the particles.
Under the Tyndall effect, the longer-wavelength light is more transmitted while the shorter-wavelength light is more reflected by scattering.
In effect, blue light is scattered much more strongly than red light.
The blue of a clear sky, and the blue of blue eyes is caused by the Tyndall effect, not by a pigment.
Its named after John Tyndall.

They produce shelf- or bracket-shaped fruiting bodies called conks.
These lie in a close group of horizontal rows.
Brackets can range from only a single row of a few caps, to dozens of rows of caps that can weigh several hundred pounds.
They are mainly found on trees (living and dead) and woody debris.
Some form annual fruiting bodies while others are perennial and grow larger year after year.
Bracket fungi are usually tough and sturdy.
Their spores, called basidiospores, are in pores on the undersurface.
Jelly fungi are a paraphyletic group of several fungal orders from different classes of the subphylum Agaricomycotina.
The name comes from their form, or growth habit.
Their fruiting body is foliose or irregularly branched.
It looks like jelly.
When dried, jelly fungi become hard and shriveled; when exposed to water, they return to their original form.
Some jelly fungi can be eaten raw; poisonous jelly fungi are rare.
However, some species, Tremella fuciformis for example, are not only edible but prized for use in soup and vegetable dishes.
The stinkhorns are a family of fungi, the  Phallaceae.
Belonging to the fungal order Phallales, the Phallaceae have a worldwide distribution, but are especially common in tropical regions.
Their mushrooms are foul-smelling, sticky spore masses, or gleba, on the end of a stalk.
Their mushroom distinguishes the Phallaceae from other families in the Phalalles.
The spore mass smells of carrion or dung, and attracts flies and other insects to help disperse the spores.
Although a great diversity of body structure shape exists between the various genera, all species in the Phallaceae begin their development as oval or round structures known as "eggs".
According to a 2008 estimate, the family contains 21 genera and 77 species.

He put Major General John Pope in command of the army.
Lincoln wanted Pope to attack the Confederate capital of Richmond, Virginia.
Confederate General Robert E. Lee commanded the Army of Northern Virginia.
He was trying to protect Richmond from another Union army on the Peninsula.
The Union Army of the Potomac had just tried to capture Richmond a few weeks before but failed.
Lee would be outnumbered if the two Union armies united.
He moved his army north to fight Pope.
Lee planned to send Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson's corps to the rear of Pope's army.
He wanted to surround Pope.
Jackson camped near the Bull Run on August 28, where the First Battle of Bull Run was fought in 1861.
Jackson attacked part of Pope's army on August 28 but was defeated.
Pope then tried to attack Jackson on August 29 and destroy his corps.
All of the Union attacks failed.
Lee arrived during the evening with James Longstreet's corps.
Pope tried to attack Jackson again on August 30 but again was defeated.
