1. Faerie Queene -- Queen Elizabeth
   The study of the Faerie Queene should be preceded by a review of the great age in which it was written. An intimate relation exists between the history of the English nation and the works of English authors. This close connection between purely external events and literary masterpieces is especially marked in a study of the Elizabethan Age. To understand the marvelous outburst of song, the incomparable drama, and the stately prose of this period, one must enter deeply into the political, social, and religious life of the times.
2. Dairy Queen -- Dairy Queens
   The Dairy Queen offers a diverse menu. From the usual burgers and ice cream, to some regional favorites - Mexican food - to the house specialty - Danny's very own mouthwatering offerings from his barbeque pit. Right from the pit, there's barbequed beef, turkey, sausage, ham and ribs. And upon completion of your meal, why not top it off with a delicious banana split, sundae, blizzard, or even a dipped cone.
3. Queen Victoria
   This is an example of the official silver medal struck to commemorate the coronation of Queen Victoria, after whom the State of Victoria is named. Silver medals like this (perhaps including this one) were thrown to the crowds during the coronation ceremony. The medal was ... struck in gold and bronzed copper.
4. Ants -- Queens
   These are "flying ants" and have two pairs of wings. Males generally have small heads, large eyes, large thoraces, and a pair of claspers at the end of the gaster. Once they fly (and mate), males do not live very long. After mating, new queens break off their wings and never fly again. Without wings, they can generally be distinguished from workers by their larger body size, larger thorax and larger abdomen. All workers are females.
5. Dairy Queen
   A very popular Dairy Queen treat today is the Blizzard, which is ice cream with candy bits blended in; it has been a staple on the menu since 1985. The Blizzard was invented and copyrighted by Richard, Ronald, and Ralph Medd of Iowa. It is traditionally served upside down to prove the thickness. The most popular Blizzard flavors include Oreo Cookies, chocolate chip cookie dough, M&M's, Reese's Peanut Butter Cup, Kit Kat, and Butterfinger. In addition, Dairy Queen is marketing its new Blizzard's Cake which includes flavors such as raspberry cheesecake and Reese's and is aimed toward celebrations and birthdays.[1] In the first year, Dairy Queen sold 175 million blizzards.[2] The company's products expanded to include malts and milkshakes in 1949, banana splits in 1951, Dilly Bars in 1955, Mr. Misty slush treats in 1961 (later renamed Misty Slush, then again to Arctic Rush), and a range of hamburgers and other cooked foods under the Brazier banner in 1958. Other popular items include ice cream sundaes and the blended coffee drink, the MooLatte.

7. Faerie Queene
   The Faerie Queene is the first great epic poem in the English language. It is a long and complex allegory, which presents the first-time reader with many difficulties of allusion and interpretation. This book is the only convenient and up-to-date guide to Spenser’s poem, and is designed as a handbook to be consulted by students while reading the poem. Each chapter is devoted to a separate book of the poem, and sub-sections treat particular episodes or sequences of episodes in detail. Dr Heale considers fully the religious and political context, and pays due attention to the variety of Spenser’s literary techniques. She encourages close reading of the poem and a lively awareness of both its rich detail and the intricate interrelation of its episodes.
