The trials were successful , with much higher regularity than the steam locomotives . The Di 3 was used eight days in a row , and then spent a single day in the depot . NSB signed an agreement with NOHAB for delivery of five further locomotives . This caused a public debate , because the domestic supplier Thune had offered to build a similar locomotive in cooperation with American Locomotive Company . The first delivery was made on 25 April 1957 , and the order completed by July . In March 1957 NSB received permission to buy another eight locomotives . Delivery started in October and was completed on 1 June 1958 . The order was supplemented with another six trains , with delivery in 1958 . | wikipedia-2018 |
wikipedia_2018-4851 | DNA sequence data from genomic and metagenomic projects are essentially the same , but genomic sequence data offers higher coverage while metagenomic data is usually highly non @-@ redundant . Furthermore , the increased use of second @-@ generation sequencing technologies with short read lengths means that much of future metagenomic data will be error @-@ prone . Taken in combination , these factors make the assembly of metagenomic sequence reads into genomes difficult and unreliable . <unk> are caused by the presence of repetitive DNA sequences that make assembly especially difficult because of the difference in the relative abundance of species present in the sample . <unk> can also involve the combination of sequences from more than one species into chimeric contigs . | wikipedia-2018 |

The Chincoteague Volunteer Fire Company was founded in June 1925 , though it needed much equipment , including a fire truck . To raise funds the fire company took over the 1925 Chincoteague pony penning , which had been declining , and sold some horses at fixed prices ( auctioning began not later than 1932 ) . Fifteen thousand people attended the penning and other festivities . The proceeds from the event were over $ 6 @,@ 000 , enabling the department to buy a pump truck . Public fascination with the pony swim , inaugurated that year at the narrowest point of the channel between the two islands , led to increased attendance in the following years . Except during the war years of 1943 and 1944 , the carnival , pony swim and auction have occurred every year since . | wikipedia-2018 |

wikipedia_2018-4856 | The original genre has persisted in one form or another . The 2005 release of F.E.A.R. was praised for both its atmospheric tension and fast action , successfully combining Japanese horror with cinematic action , while Dead Space from 2008 brought survival horror to a science fiction setting . However , critics argue that these titles represent the continuing trend away from pure survival horror and towards general action . The release of Left 4 Dead in 2008 helped popularize cooperative multiplayer among survival horror games , although it is mostly a first person shooter at its core . Meanwhile , the Fatal Frame series has remained true to the roots of the genre , even as Fatal Frame IV transitioned from the use of fixed cameras to an over @-@ the @-@ shoulder viewpoint . Also in 2009 , Silent Hill made a transition to an over @-@ the @-@ shoulder viewpoint in Silent Hill : Shattered Memories .

wikipedia_2018-4882 | The episode was written by Frank Mula and directed by Carlos Baeza . The idea was conceived by the then @-@ show runner David Mirkin . When he was hired to work on The Simpsons , one of his goals was to study the aspect of Homer 's character if he was " really tempted away " from Marge . Mirkin wanted to find out what would happen in a situation where Homer finds himself attracted to another woman . The Simpsons creator Matt Groening had previously written an episode for the show 's third season , called " Colonel Homer " , where Homer finds himself attracted to a country singer named Lurleen Lumpkin . In that episode , Lurleen immediately had a " crush " on Homer , but Homer was not aware of it until later on . With this episode , Mirkin wanted Homer to immediately know he was attracted to Mindy . Mirkin thought it was a " great exploration " to see what happened to Homer in this particular case . The episode did not get the usual amount of laughs at the animatic test screening , which made the staff worry it was not as funny as they expected . Mirkin said it had to do with the fact that because there were very " subtle " performances in the episode , the animation had to be " exactly right " for it to be funny . Baeza and David Silverman , another animation director on the show , worked " hard " on the episode .
