The First Nations of Canada lived on Point Pelee for a long time.
This was before the Europeans came to colonize the area.

Tuas Link MRT station (EW33) is an above-ground Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) station along the East West Line in Tuas, Singapore.
It is the western terminus of the East West Line, and the westernmost MRT station in the network.
Tuas Link station is within walking distance to Raffles Marina, Tuas Checkpoint and the Malaysia–Singapore Second Link.
However, as Tuas Checkpoint is designated as a vehicular checkpoint, travellers are not allowed to enter the checkpoint on foot via Tuas Link station.
Tuas Link MRT station, along with the rest of the Tuas West Extension of the East West MRT Line, was first announced on 11 January 2011 by Transport Minister Raymond Lim.
The groundbreaking ceremony marking the start of the construction of Tuas West Extension was held at this station on 4 May 2012 by Transport Minister Lui Tuck Yew.
When opened, the extension is expected to serve more than 100,000 commuters daily.
The station and the Tuas West Extension started operations on 18 June 2017.
Stations between Gul Circle to Tuas Link were temporary closed between 16 and 19 November 2017 following a collision between two trains at Joo Koon station.
On 20 November 2017, train service from Gul Circle to Tuas Link was resumed; however, train services between Joo Koon and Gul Circle will be suspended till mid-2018 to facilitate maintenance work on signalling devices.
The Alstom Metropolis C830C, together with the Alstom Metropolis C751C are the third generation of communications-based train control (CBTC) rolling stock to be used in Singapore’s Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) lines.
24 trainsets of 3 cars were manufactured by Shanghai Alstom Transport Co Ltd (a joint venture between Alstom and Shanghai Electric), with deliveries from end June 2014.
The tender for trains under the contract 830C was opened together with another contract C751C for an additional 18 North East Line trains which closed on 18 July 2011 with 5 bids.
The Land Transport Authority has shortlisted all of them and the tender results was published on 1 February 2012.
The outside of the train is almost the same as the older C830, with slight differences such as a larger SMRT logo and the look of the train inside.
The reserved seats are coloured red to make them more obvious.
Navy blue and yellow coloured seats are installed in the driving motor cars (end carriages) while the seats in the middle car are khaki.
The train's system that allows it to move is louder than the C830's, and is identical the one found on the Amsterdam Metro M5 Series.
Driverless operation
The C830C runs without a driver, using Communications-based train control (CBTC), which does not require "fixed-block track circuits" to find where the train is on the track.
Instead, they use "continuous two-way digital communication" between each controlled train and a control center, which may control an area of a railroad line, a complete line, or a group of lines.
It has been found that CBTC systems reduce costs for running the system and allow the system to be controlled more easily.
The car numbers of the trains range from 841x to 864x, where x depends on the carriage type.
A complete three-car trainset consists of one trailer(T) and two driving motor cars(Mc1 & Mc2) permanently coupled together.
For example, set 864 consists of carriages 8641, 8642, 8643.

After completing his Ph.
D under Linus Pauling at the California Institute of Technology, Meselson became a Professor at Harvard University in 1960.
He is there today as today as Thomas Dudley Cabot Professor of the Natural Sciences.
In the famous Meselson–Stahl experiment of 1958 he and Frank Stahl showed with nitrogen isotope labeling that DNA is replicated semi-conservatively.
In addition, Meselson, François Jacob, and Sydney Brenner discovered the existence of messenger RNA in 1961.
Meselson has investigated DNA repair in cells and how cells recognize and destroy foreign DNA, and, with Werner Arber, was responsible for the discovery of restriction enzymes.
Since 1963 he has been interested in chemical warfare and biological defense and arms control.
Meselson worked with Henry Kissinger under the Nixon administration to convince President Richard Nixon to renounce biological weapons, suspend chemical weapons production, and support an international treaty banning biological agents for hostile purposes.
In 1972 this became  the Biological Weapons Convention.
Meselson has received many awards.
His laboratory at Harvard investigates the biological and evolutionary nature of sexual reproduction, genetic recombination, and aging.
Many of his past students are notable biologists, including Nobel Laureate Sidney Altman, Mark Ptashne, Susan Lindquist, Stephen F. Heinemann, and Richard I. Morimoto.

Wolf Children () is an Japanese anime movie directed/co-written by Mamoru Hosoda.
Hana, a college student, has two children with a werewolf.
She names the girl Yuki and the boy Ame.
Not long after this, their father dies.
Hana decides to keep raising the children.
As the children grow older, Hana finds it is hard to hide the werewolf powers inherited from their father: ultimately, she moves them to the countryside to avoid trouble from the public.
She works hard to repair a house and grow their own food.
Ame becomes confident in himself after a near-death experience, and the children are allowed to attend school.
Yuki adapts and makes friends, while Ame drops out to receive lessons from an old fox named Sensei about surviving in the wild.
At this time, they are beginning to form their life paths.
In fourth grade, a transfer student named Souhei begins attending Yuki's class.
He realizes she is not normal, and during a chase, Yuki accidentally injures his ear.
He tells his mother a wolf attacked him, not Yuki.
Over time, they become friends.
Ame and Yuki later fight each other over their "real" selves: neither sibling can agree whether or not they are wolf or human.
Hana recognizes they are forming their futures, but is worried about it.
Ame reveals that Sensei has been gravely wounded during a storm and will likely not survive, but then hints that he will succeed Sensei as the guardian of the wild.
Hana is horrified by this, and begs him not to return to the forest.
Two years later, despite what Hana told him, Ame disappears into the forest during a severe storm to replace Sensei; Hana goes after him.
She forgets to pick up Yuki from school, who is left alone with Souhei while the other students are retrieved.
She decides to reveal herself as a wolf to him.
He replies that he already knew and will keep her secret.
Hana gets hurt by a fall and dreams about her lover, who tells her that Ame will be fine with his chosen path.
Ame picks her up and gets her to safety, but then turns into an adult wolf and runs off into the mountains.
Hana is initially heartbroken as she believes she has not yet done anything for Ame, but soon recognizes he is now "where he belongs" and bids him farewell.
The next school year, Yuki leaves home to move into a dorm room with her friends in Junior High.
Ame's howls are heard throughout the forest.
Despite living alone in the house, Hana feels that she has raised her children well.

With classic tunes of thrash metal and riffs derived from the punk trend, Tormentor is a 1983 single recognized as one of the most emblematics songs of the American band Slayer from their album Show No Mercy.
Several songs and bands have the name Tormentor in their names or titles.
However, Slayer's Tormentor is one of the best known in which the epithet is used.
The band Kreator also has a song called Tormentor, created two years after Slayer's song.
The song was produced by Brian Slagel and is, along with Metal Storm/Face the Slayer, the most harmonious, both being criticized for resembling the Modus Toccata of Mercyful Fate or Iron Maiden, especially considering that the latter is one of the bands that were immersed in what would be known as NWOBHM.
As with other songs of the band, Tormentor has a dark and lugubrious tone reminiscent of the album Killers, by Iron Maiden, where a story is told, sometimes in the first person, with a supernatural theme, Noir story, or simply Satanism.
The narrative is from the point of view of a murderer in search of anyone walking in the solitude of the night in order to turn him into his next victim.
Only that the killer does not want to kill his prey too soon as he starts playing with him/her in a kind of gloomy game of cat and mouse.
The murderer rejoices to see how fear seizes the victim who believes seeing in every shadow of the night the potential murderer, to finally realize that he has lost the perspective of reality and that his mind is playing tricks on him/her.
However, this is what the murderer wants, as it will torment him (hence the name of Tormentor, "he who torments") until, in the end, he strikes.

An ice planet is a theoretical type of exoplanet where everything is frozen.
None has been found so far, but astronomers think they do exist.
They might have an icy surface of substances which are volatile on Earth, such as water, ammonia, and methane.
Ice planets consist of a global cryosphere.
They are bigger versions of the small icy worlds of the Solar System, like the moons Europa, Enceladus, and Triton, the dwarf planets Pluto and Eris.
Some ice worlds might have subsurface oceans, warmed by internal heat or tidal forces from another nearby body.
Liquid subsurface water might provide habitable conditions for life.
Microorganisms can produce nutrients using specific chemicals (chemosynthesis) that may provide food and energy for other organisms.
Some planets, if conditions are right, may have strong atmospheres and surface liquids like Saturn's moon Titan, which could be habitable for exotic forms of life.
Rice flour is made from either white rice or brown rice.
To make the flour, the husk of rice or paddy is removed.
The raw rice is then ground to flour.
Rice flour is a particularly good substitute for wheat flour, which some people believe irritates their digestive system.
Rice flour is also used as a thickening agent in recipes that are refrigerated or frozen.
Many dishes are made from rice flour, including rice noodles and desserts like Japanese mochi and Filipino cascaron.
Vietnamese banh canh uses rice flour and it is also used in making General Tso's chicken.
In Chinese, it is called mifen (Chinese: 米粉; pinyin: mǐ fěn) Also it can be used in cooking, steamed, fried (fried rice noodlesChinese: 炒米粉; pinyin: chǎo mǐ fěn).
Also it is used in other cuisine, such as galapong in Ilokano/Filipino, and pirinç unu in Turkish cuisine.
It can also be used to make rice bread.
Brown rice flour can be combined with vermiculite for the cultivation of mushrooms.
Hard cakes of colonised substrate can then be fruited in a humid container.
This method is often (though not always) employed by growers of edible mushrooms.
It is a very simple and low-cost method of growing mushrooms.
An ice giant is a huge planet made mostly of elements heavier than hydrogen and helium, such as oxygen, carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur.
There are two known ice giants in the Solar System, Uranus and Neptune.
In the 1990s, it was realized that Uranus and Neptune are a distinct class of giant planet, separate from the other giant planets, Jupiter and Saturn.
They have become known as ice giants.
Their constituent compounds were solids when the planets were stuck together during their formation.
Today, little of the water in Uranus and Neptune is in the form of ice.
Instead, the water is a supercritical fluid at the temperatures and pressures inside them.
Yachts were a British new wave band, best remembered for their 1978 single, "Yachting Type", and minor new wave classic, "Matanovi's Hits".
The Chicago "L" (short for "elevated railway") is the Chicago rapid transit system.
It serves the city of Chicago and some of its surrounding suburbs in the U.S. state of Illinois.
The "L" is operated by the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA).
It is the fourth-largest rapid transit system in the United States.
It is  long, and the second-busiest rail mass transit system in the United States, after the New York City Subway.
Chicago's "L" has 24-hour service on some portions of its network.
It is one of only five rapid transit systems in the United States to do so.
The oldest sections of the Chicago "L" started operations in 1892, making it the second-oldest rapid transit system in the Americas, after New York City's elevated lines.

The English Chess Federation (ECF) is the governing chess organisation in England and is affiliated to FIDE.
The ECF was formed in 2004, and took charge in 2005.
It replaced the British Chess Federation (BCF), the governing body of chess in England from 1904 until 2005.
It was suggested that the BCF should change its name because only England came under its jurisdiction.
It did not administer chess in the other countries of the UK.
The BCF did have a British dimension, since it ran the British Chess Championship.
This is one of two important tournaments held each year in Britain (the other is the annual international tournament at Hastings).
At the start of the 2005/6 season the English Chess Federation was created, inheriting the BCF's assets and personnel.
The former BCF still exists for legacy purposes, but its website was inherited by the ECF.
The Scottish and Welsh Federations hold their own championships every year as they did before.
Therefore the change does not make much difference to most players.
The situation in Ireland is more complicated.
The Irish Chess Union since 1912 was the governing body for both the Republic and Northern Ireland.
In 2005 the Ulster Chess Union broke away from the Irish Chess Union.
These two groups were part of the original British Chess Federation, but are not in any way connected to the new English Chess Federation.
All groups except the Ulster Chess Union are members of the International Chess Federation FIDE, and the European Chess Union.
The Ancient Beringians are the earliest known population of North America.
They migrated from  Beringia into Alaska  sometime before 11,500 years ago.
They separated from other Paleo-Indians about 20,000 years ago.
The discovery of an "Ancient Beringian" genome from the remains of two infants dated to 11,500 years ago was announced in January 2018.
The Ancient Beringians remained in the Arctic until they either became extinct  or amalgamated with the Dene about five to six thousand years ago.
The Ancient Beringian were hunter-gatherers.
They ate wild plants and wild animals.
Some of the animals they ate were salmon, ptarmigan, and ground squirrels.
Windows 3.1 (codenamed Janus) is a series of 16-bit operating environments produced by Microsoft for use on personal computers.

Transport within Singapore is mainly land-based.
Many parts of Singapore, including certain islands such as Sentosa and Jurong Island are accessible by road.
The other major form of transportation within Singapore is rail: the Mass Rapid Transit which runs the length and width of Singapore, and the Light Rail Transit which runs within a few neighbourhoods.
The main island of Singapore is connected to the other islands by ferryboat services.
Singapore also has a great deal of links to the rest of the world.
There are two bridges which link Singapore to Malaysia – the Causeway, and the Second Link.
The Singapore Changi Airport is a major aviation hub in Asia, and Singapore is a major transshipment port.
Singapore has one of the best public transport networks in the world, according to a study by London consulting firm Credo.
Public transport includes bus, train, and taxi.
The public transport system is regulated by the Land Transport Authority, which oversees the three main modes of public transportation.
Fare regulation and bus service standards are under the purview of an independent body, the Public Transport Council, while TransitLink, established by SBS Transit, SMRT Trains and SMRT Buses, helps to create an integrated multi-modal system with a common fare-payment mode, information platform, and a physical network without duplication of services.
The policies of the Land Transport Authority are meant to encourage the use of public transport in Singapore.
The key aims are to provide an incentive to reside away from the Central district, as well as to reduce air pollution.
Singapore has a Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) and Light Rail Transit (LRT) rail system consisting of five lines.
There is also a system of bus routes throughout the island, most of which have air conditioning units installed due to Singapore's tropical climate.
Besides cash, a contactless smart card called the EZ-Link card can be used to pay bus and MRT fares.
The average amount of time people spend commuting with public transit in Singapore, for example to and from work, on a weekday is 84 min.
25% of public transit riders, ride for more than 2 hours every day.
The average amount of time people wait at a stop or station for public transit is 12 min, while 11% of riders wait for over 20 minutes on average every day.
The average distance people usually ride in a single trip with public transit is 7.3 km, while 16% travel for over 12 km in a single direction.
Public transport for tourists
Launched in December 2007 by Land Transport Authority, Singapore Tourism Board and EZ-Link, the Singapore Tourist Pass offers unlimited travel for tourists to Singapore on Singapore's public transport system.
For S$10 a day (S$20 for 3 days, as of April 2017) and with S$10 deposit, tourists can take any number of rides on buses and trains operated by SBS Transit, SMRT Buses and SMRT Trains.
The Singapore Tourist Pass is available at selected MRT stations.
Singapore's public transport system has been mostly buses, until the opening of the first section of the Mass Rapid Transit in 1987.
Although buses still enjoy an average daily ridership exceeding the number carried on both the MRT and LRT systems (3.9 million on buses, compared to 3.1 million on the MRT and LRT in the year 2016), the Land Transport Authority plans to expand the rail system such that buses will eventually play only a feeder role to an extensive rail network.
The current MRT network consists of five main lines, for a total network length of  and with 119 stations.
The North South Line, East West Line and Circle Line are operated by SMRT Trains (SMRT Corporation), while the North East Line and Downtown Line since 22 December 2013, are run by SBS Transit.
The Circle Line Extension from Promenade to Marina Bay began operation since 14 January 2012.
Light Rail Transit (LRT)
Light rail transit functioning as feeders to the main MRT network has been under study for some time, particularly since the existing urban configuration of self-containing new towns spread out in the suburbs meant it was feasible to consider having light rail systems connecting each town to the MRT station in the town centre, a role which has traditionally been provided by feeder buses.
Thus, the first SMRT Light Rail (SMRT Corporation) operated LRT was opened in Bukit Panjang in 1999 to provide a connection to Choa Chu Kang in neighbouring Choa Chu Kang New Town.
Although subsequently hit by over 50 incidents, some of which resulted in several days of system suspension, similar systems albeit from a different company were introduced in Sengkang and Punggol in 2003 and 2005 respectively, both operated by SBS Transit.
Other Lines
Singapore has had other various forms of light urban rail systems, such as the monorail system on Sentosa island, which opened in February 1982.
This 6.4 km, 6-station system was closed in March 2005 and a new Sentosa Express system was built by December 2006.
The Changi Skytrain, a people mover system shuttling passengers between the three terminals at the Singapore Changi Airport, was opened originally in 1990 along with Terminal 2 and upgraded in 2006 with the completion of Terminal 3.
The Jurong BirdPark previously featured an air-conditioned panorail which closed in 2012.
Taxis and transportation network companies
Taxicabs are a popular form of public transport in the compact sovereign city-state of Singapore, with fares considered relatively low compared to those in most cities in developed countries.
As of December 2014, the total taxi fleet in Singapore was 28,736 taxis, operated by 6 taxi companies and 178 independent drivers.
Taxis may be flagged down at any time of the day along any public road outside of the Central Business District (CBD).
However, increased usage of Uber and Grab has resulted in a decrease in the usage of taxis.
There are six local scheduled service airlines, all of them operating from Singapore Changi Airport, offering scheduled flights to over 70 cities on six continents.
The national flag carrier, Singapore Airlines, operates from Changi Airport Terminal 2 and 3.
Its subsidiaries, SilkAir and Scoot, operate from Changi Airport Terminal 2.
Singapore's two budget airlines, Jetstar Asia Airways and Valuair, operate from Changi Airport Terminal 1.
Only one budget airline, Tiger Airways, chose to operate at the Budget Terminal; other budget airlines have cited various reasons for not shifting operations to the Budget Terminal, including accessibility and ease of transfers to connecting flights.
There are 6 airlines operate from Singapore.
Jetstar Asia Airways – founded 2004
Scoot – founded 2011
SilkAir – founded 1976
Singapore Airlines – founded 1937 (as Malayan Airways)
Tigerair – founded 2003 (merged with Scoot in 2017)
Valuair – founded 2004 (merged with Jetstar Asia in 2005, brand retained for certain Jetstar Asia's services)
Aerial lift transport
The Singapore Cable Car, plies between Mount Faber on the main island of Singapore and the resort island of Sentosa as an alternative means of accessing that tourist attraction.
The cable car system underwent a revamp that was completed in August 2010.
Maritime transport
Water transport within the main island is limited to the River Taxi along the Singapore River.
The service was introduced in January 2013, with low ridership.
