The following is a list of zombie feature films which are popular or with a relatively high budget. Zombies are fictional creatures usually portrayed as reanimated corpses or virally infected human beings. They are commonly enacted as cannibalistic in nature. While zombie films generally fall into the horror genre, some cross over into other genres, such as comedy, science fiction, thriller, or romance. Distinct sub-genres have evolved, such as the "zombie comedy" or the "zombie apocalypse". Zombies are distinct from ghosts, ghouls, mummies, or vampires, so this list does not include films devoted to these types of undead.
Victor Halperin's White Zombie was released in 1932 and is often cited to be the first zombie film. The 1910 film Frankenstein features a reanimated corpse. The 1942 film The Living Ghost is another zombie movie with two examples of artificially created zombie characters.

Combined school
Combined School is a term used in the United Kingdom which has begun to lose its original meaning.
When, in 1967, the Plowden Report recommended a change in the structure of primary education in England, it proposed an arrangement of first and middle schools, catering for pupils aged 4–8 and 8-12 respectively. It also proposed the use of the term combined school to refer to those through schools which accepted pupils from age 4 to 12.
Some Local Education Authorities, such as Buckinghamshire introduced a large number of this type of school, but have since adapted their structures such that all such schools are now regular primary schools catering for pupils up to age 11. However, many of the schools have retained their former name as a combined school.
There remains a small number of combined schools, in the original sense, in Poole, Dorset....

Eozoon canadense
Eozoön canadense (literally, "dawn animal of Canada") is a pseudofossil.
John William Dawson (1865) described the banded structures of coarsely crystalline calcite and serpentine as a gigantic Foraminifera, making it the oldest known fossil. It was found in Precambrian metamorphosed limestone of Canada, at Côte St. Pierre near Grenville (Quebec) in 1863. It was later found in several other localities. Dawson called it "one of the brightest gems in the scientific crown of the Geological Survey of Canada". In 1894, it was shown that the place where it was found was associated with metamorphism (O'Brien, 1970; Adelman, 2007).
Similar Eozoön structures were subsequently found in metamorphosed limestone blocks erupted from Mt. Vesuvius, where high-temperature physical and chemical processes were responsible for their formation (O'Brien, 1970).

Eaglehawk–Inglewood railway line
The Eaglehawk - Inglewood line is a freight only railway in northern Victoria, Australia. It links the Piangil line towards Swan Hill to the Robinvale and Kulwin lines. It was opened in 1876.
Operations
The line operates using the Train Order Working system of safeworking. A crossing loop is provided at Bridgewater. The maximum speed limit is 50 km/h, with all mainline locomotives permitted, albeit with some speed restrictions. The line was booked out of service in May 2007.

Hydroxyacylglutathione hydrolase
In enzymology, a Hydroxyacylglutathione hydrolase (EC 3.1.2.6) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
(R)-S-lactoylglutathione + water glutathione + a 2-hydroxy carboxylate
Hence, this enzyme has two substrate, (R)-S-lactoylglutathione and water, and two products, glutathione and a 2-hydroxy carboxylate. With the common substrate methylglyoxal, the product is D-lactate.
This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically the class of thioester lyases. This enzyme is commonly known as glyoxylase II. This enzyme participates in pyruvate metabolism.
