Political warfare in British colonial India Political warfare in British colonial India aided a British minority in maintaining control over large parts of present-day India, Pakistan, and Burma. The East India Company obtained a foothold in India in 1695 and from that start expanded the territory it controlled until it was the primary power in the subcontinent. After the Indian Rebellion of 1857 the British Government nationalised the Company creating the British Raj. The Company lost all its administrative powers; its Indian possessions, including its armed forces, were taken over by the Crown pursuant to the provisions of the Government

Droughts- Although South Texas summers generally see rainfall in summer months, some years the lack of rain is persistent and leads to water shortages; lake levels drop significantly and lead to municipal water restrictions.

Furthermore, 95% of the state faced an extreme or exceptional drought, according to the office of the Texas state climatologist.

In restaurants, Chinese chicken salad may be more embellished and offered as an American-style entree salad, similar to Caesar, Chef, and Cobb salads. Origins of the Chinese chicken salad are unknown, whereas it's believed to have originated from pan-Asian cuisine or fusion cuisine influences, rather than having actual roots in Chinese cuisine. Reasoning for that theory is that green lettuce salad is a dish of primarily Western origins. Many non-Western world cultures also have salads of various sorts as part of their traditional cuisines.

triangular, so only a finite number of terms in the sum are nonzero. Expressing a polynomial in the basis of falling factorials is useful for calculating sums of the polynomial evaluated at consecutive integers. Indeed, the sum of a falling factorial is simply expressed as another falling factorial (for ""k≠-1"") This is analogous to the integral formula_31, though the sum should be over integers ""i"" strictly less than ""n"". For example, the sum of fourth powers of integers up to ""n"" (this time with ""n"" included), is: Here the Stirling numbers can be computed from their definition as the number

The first mass-produced solid-body guitar was Fender Esquire and Fender Broadcaster (later to become the Fender Telecaster), first made in 1948, five years after Les Paul made his prototype. The Gibson Les Paul appeared soon after to compete with the Broadcaster. Another notable solid-body design is the Fender Stratocaster, which was introduced in 1954 and became extremely popular among musicians in the 1960s and 1970s for its wide tonal capabilities and more comfortable ergonomics than other models.

It was originally the third of the s, but had been converted into a 72,000-ton supercarrier after the Battle of Midway. Four of ""Archerfish""s six torpedoes had hit, striking the carrier between the anti-torpedo bulge and the waterline at approximately 03:20. The damage was magnified by the fact that ""Shinano"" had turned south just minutes before Enright loosed his torpedoes, thus exposing her entire side to ""Archerfish""—a nearly ideal firing situation for a submarine.

This eschatological and apocalyptic setting of a Last Judgement is in precise contrast to the ""Titanomachia"" of Hesiod which serves its distinct service to Greek mythology as its ""Prolegomenon"", bracketing all subsequent mythology, including the creation of humanity, as coming after the cosmological struggle between the Titans and the Olympian gods.

It occurs through vegetative reproductive spores, the conidia. The conidiospores commonly contain one nucleus and are products of mitotic cell divisions and thus are sometimes called mitospores, which are genetically identical to the mycelium from which they originate. They are typically formed at the ends of specialized hyphae, the ""conidiophores"". Depending on the species they may be dispersed by wind or water,

The sperm move into the vas deferens, and are eventually expelled through the urethra and out of the urethral orifice through muscular contractions.

Ecliptic The ecliptic is the mean plane of the apparent path in the sky that the Sun follows over the course of one year; it is the basis of the ecliptic coordinate system. This plane of reference is coplanar with Earth's orbit around the Sun (and hence the Sun's apparent path around Earth). The ecliptic is not normally noticeable from Earth's surface because the planet's rotation carries the observer through the daily cycles of sunrise and sunset, which obscure the Sun's apparent motion against the background of stars during the year. The motions as described above are simplifications. Due to
