The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals is Charles Darwin's third major work of evolutionary theory, following On the Origin of Species (1859) and The Descent of Man (1871).
Darwin had intended it as a section of The Descent of Man.
However, that book was already quite long: it was published in two volumes.
So the Expression of the Emotions was published separately in 1872.
The book is about the way emotional life is shown by the faces and actions of man and other mammals.
Darwin sets out ideas that our systems of emotions are inherited, and have evolved in a similar way to the more familiar structural aspects of man and animals.
He explores the origins of such human characteristics as the lifting of the eyebrows in moments of surprise and the mental confusion which typically accompanies blushing.
The book is very notable for being the first book to use photographs as the main way of showing scientific evidence.
The field of study is now called behavioural genetics.
One line of evidence he uses is the way many different peoples in different parts of the world have similar facial and emotional reactions.
Darwin's basic points were: a single origin for the entire human species, and universal human expressions.
Also, there are obvious links between the way human emotions are shown and the way other mammals show their emotions.
Our emotional displays are adapted from a more basic set of emotional displays common to many mammals.
The emotional displays are inherited, automatic and are difficult to control with our conscious mind.
They are operated by the more ancient unconscious mind.
Modern research has shown that it is extremely difficult to avoid giving signs of our emotions.
A German translation of The Expression appeared in 1872; Dutch and French versions followed in 1873 and 1874.
A second edition of the book, with only minor alterations, was published in 1890.

Dream Market is an online darknet market started in late 2013.
Dream Market works on a hidden service of the Tor network.
This allows online users to browse anonymously and securely while dodging possible monitoring of traffic.
The marketplace sells many things, including drugs, stolen data, and fake goods, using the Bitcoin, BitcoinCash and Monero cryptocurrencies.
Dream provides an escrow service, with disputes handled by staff.
The market also has forums, hosted on a different URL.
After the takeovers and shutdowns of the AlphaBay and Hansa markets in July 2017, there was much speculation that Dream Market would become the main darknet marketplace.
Many sellers and buyers from AlphaBay and Hansa communities registered on Dream Market.
Dream Administrator and vendor Gal Vallerius was arrested in August 2017, after a border search of his laptop confirmed his identity as online drug seller OxyMonster.
$500,000 USD in the cryptocurrency Bitcoin was discovered on his laptop.
Vallerius is the subject of an continuing investigation about large online narcotics purchases which began in February 2016.
After the recent seizures of other markets, the accounts of a number of Dream Market vendors came under the control of Dutch law enforcement.
As the market remains in operation, and no official statement has been released by Dutch authorities regarding this matter, it is not known how these accounts were compromised, though some researchers suggest that shared credentials are to blame.
On September 13th, Dream users reported the loss of funds from their accounts in posts to forums such as reddit.
In a post to the markets' news page, Staff later confirmed that a hard drive failure caused the issue and promised to refund the lost funds.
The issue has not yet been resolved, and it is not known how many (if any) users have had their prior balance compensated.

Tracheids are long cells in the xylem of vascular plants.
They  transport water and mineral salts.
Tracheids are one of two types of elements in the xylem, vessel elements being the other.
Tracheids do not have perforation plates; vessel elements do.
These define vascular plants, as opposed to  non-vascular plants.
All tracheary elements get a thick lignified cell wall.
When the plant is mature, the protoplast has broken down and disappeared.
Tracheids have two functions.
They transport material and provide structural support.
The secondary walls have thickenings in various forms: rings, spirals, networks or as extensive thickenings except where there are pits.
Tracheids provide most of the structural support in softwoods, where they are the major cell type.
Because tracheids have a much larger surface area to volume ratio compared to vessel elements, they hold water against gravity (by adhesion) when transpiration is not occurring.
This mechanism helps plants prevent air embolisms.
The term "tracheid" was introduced by Carl Sanio in 1863, originally as Tracheide, in German.

There are early rocks recovered from the Moon.
This is relevant because the Moon was once part of the Earth: see giant impact hypothesis.
During Apollo 16, Lunar sample 67215, dated at 4.46 billion years, was brought back.
Lunar sample 67215 is the oldest known rock on Earth, even though it came from the Moon.
The oldest material of terrestrial origin that has been dated is a zircon mineral 4.404 ±0.008 billion years old.
It was in the Jack Hills  of Western Australia.
The  oldest consistently-dated zircon is closer to 4.35 billion years ago.
The oldest rock formation on Earth may be the Acasta Gneiss in the Canadian Shield in the Northwest Territories, Canada.
It is composed of the Archaean igneous and gneissic cores of ancient mountain chains that have been exposed by glacial action.
Again it was dated by analysis of zircons in the rocks.
Tullimonstrum, colloquially known as the Tully Monster, is an extinct bilaterian animal that lived in shallow tropical coastal waters of muddy estuaries during the Pennsylvanian geological period, about 300 million years ago.
A single species, T. gregarium, is known.
Its classification has been the subject of controversy, and interpretations of the fossil likened it to molluscs, arthropods, conodonts, worms, and vertebrates.
It is unknown weather Tullimonstrum was a vertebrate or an invertebrate.
Supercharger -As at higher altitude the atmospheric pressure decreases due to which density of air decreases.
Hence, to increase the density of air, first time supercharger was introduced in the Internal combustion engine of Aircraft which compresses the air through compressor wheel.
It was working as a parasitic load on engine as the drive is given through gear train of the engine.
So to overcome this situation Turbocharger was introduced in which drive is given through the pressure of exhaust gases.turbocharger is not used in ic engines.

A luminous red nova (LRN) is an explosion in space.
It is probably caused when two stars merge to become one.
Their red colour is distinctive.
The light curve near the star stays in the infared.
Luminous red novae are different from normal novae.
Those are explosions on the surface of white dwarf stars.
History and discovery
The first luminous red nova found was in the Messier 85 galaxy.
It was discovered when people working at the Rickett Observatory were searching for supernovas.
Astronomers from U.C. Berkeley and Caltech investigated it.
They found that it was different from normal novae and thermal pulses.
Afterwards, they announced that luminous red novae are a new type of star explosion.
More luminous red novae were found after the discovery.
Researchers found V1309 Scorpii in 2008.
The star system was a contact binary.
Researchers were studying it for six years before it merged and exploded.
In 2015, two different luminous red novae were found.
One was in the Andromeda galaxy, and the other was in the Pinwheel galaxy.
Astronomers think that in 2022, KIC 9832227 will merge and become a new luminous red nova.
This star system is 1800 light years away from the Sun.
A team from Calvin College found that the orbital period of the star system was slowing down and that the stars were coming closer to each other.
The luminosity of the explosion is between that of a supernova and that of a nova.
The light of the explosion stays for a few weeks or a few months.
It gradually becomes darker.
These stars may not be as hot as normal stars.

The Kawasaki Heavy Industries & CRRC Qingdao Sifang C151C is the sixth generation of rolling stock to be introduced on the existing East West Line and North South Line of Singapore.
12 trains were purchased and were delivered between 2017 and 2019, where the trains were tested before starting full service in 2019.
The first of the 12 trains was delivered on 27 October 2017.
The interior design was shown on 28 February 2018 at the Tuas Depot with two trains on display.
When all trainsets start running on the NSEWL, it will bring the total number of trains running on the NSEWL to 198 trainsets, up from the previous 186 trainsets.
The first 3 C151C trainsets started running on 30 September 2018 on the North-South Line.
3 more commenced service by end-2018, and the remaining 6 started services in early 2019.
The C151C will be the first MRT rolling stock on the NSEWL to be fitted with fold-up seats, and a new Route Map Display also found in the CT251 on the Thomson-East Coast Line.
Rumours were spread saying that the C151Cs will have built-in onboard free Wi-Fi have been deemed untrue when the final design of the C151Cs was unveiled on 28 February 2018 at the Tuas West Depot.
The C151C retains most of the features of the C151B trains but with a different livery.
It's the second train to follow the LTA's livery rules (the first was the C951) and the first train on the North South & East West Lines to use it.
Unlike the C151B before it , it is finished in black for the upper body and white for the lower body, separated by a red and green stripe, which are the NSEWL colours.
Unlike the C151A and C151B which has the SMRT Logos on the front, the C151C trains has the Land Transport Authority logos on its body.
The front headlights have been replaced by LEDs but retained the placement like the C151B, but the C151C sports a black front from the older trains before C151A trains, albeit in a straight line like the C751B for the C151C.
The car numbers of the trains range from x701 to x724, where x depends on the carriage type.
Individual cars are assigned a 4 digit serial number.
For example, set 705/706 consists of carriages 3705, 1705, 2705, 2706, 1706 and 3706.
