the rise of globalisation since the second world war has entailed not only large movements of goods and capital across european borders but also mass migration . by 2005 , 8 . 6 per cent of the inhabitants in eu - 25 countries were foreign - born . the issue of how best to integrate socially these often ethnically and religiously diverse peoples has become an important subject of debate both within individual nations and at the level of the commission of the european communities . often forgotten , however , is the fact that this dilemma is not new . this project will provide original insights into minority integration through a comparative historical case study . it takes as its focus the polish minorities living within german and austro - hungarian borders during the first world war . in the forty years before 1914 , these two states had adopted diametrically opposed policies to win poles’ loyalties : whereas german governments had pursued obtrusive campaigns of cultural and linguistic assimilation , austria - hungary had granted extensive political and cultural autonomy . by comparing poles’ readiness to defend these states in 1914 , as well as their subsequent commitment to their rulers’ war efforts , the study will assess which method of integration proved more successful . two further outcomes , contributing to two interdisciplinary academic debates , are also expected from this research . firstly , by examining poles’ attitudes and conduct during the years 1914 - 18 , the project will shed light on the growth of polish national identity in the early twentieth century and engage with sociological and political scientific literature on the relationship between war and the rise of national consciousnesses . secondly , by evaluating the performance of polish troops fighting for fatherlands which were not their own , the study will help to resolve the longstanding scholarly controversy about the importance of ideological beliefs , especially patriotism , for martial efficiency .

team 4 was a british architectural firm , established in 1963 by architecture graduates su brumwell , wendy cheesman , norman foster and richard rogers .

the practice originally included wendy cheesman 's sister georgie wolton ( née cheesman ) who , as the only qualified architect of the group , allowed the practice to function .

georgie cheeseman left after only a few months , leaving the remaining members to try to pass their professional exams while continuing to practice .

rogers , foster and brumwell had first met while studying at yale university .

founded in 1989 , pivotal is a consultancy that uses open source software and a collaborative design and development approach to help enterprises expand their in - house product development capabilities . clients send their employees to pivotal’s office for an extended immersive workshop where they work alongside the consultancy group’s own developers and designers to learn test - driven , lean product development by absorption .
“in enterprise we have software developers who have a lot of different talent and skills , but not all of them are modern skills , ” said pivotal chicago director austin vance ( pictured right ) . “how do we train and bring our developers to work on these modern cloud platforms , and how do we do that quickly ? ”
one of pivotal’s answers to that question is pair programming : the client’s developers are placed alongside pivotal’s , working together in pairs on the same computer to solve a problem . in doing so , the two developers learn from — and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of — each other’s approaches along the way . in going through the program , developers and designers also receive continuous feedback and participate in retrospectives .
pivotal also trains startups and legacy companies alike in building and scaling product teams — and in challenging employees in order to motivate them to stick around .
headquartered in san francisco , pivotal chose chicago as its first location in the midwest because of its thriving ecosystem of fortune 500 companies and readily available tech talent . along with three other “pivots , ” vance moved here from boulder , co in january 2014 in the midst of the infamous polar vortex .
“i fell in love with the city right off the bat , ” said vance . “i feel like there is this amazing collaborative atmosphere inside of 1871 , inside of chicago enterprises , where everybody in the city , in the space , are looking to transform their companies in order to become more productive , stay top of market , release more relevant and productive applications faster . ”
“product managers , software engineers , product designers — we’re looking for all of them , ” said vance . “it’s time for pivotal to reinvest in chicago and settle in a little bit , and so that’s what our goal is for the next six months here . ”

of all of the rappers that have made an impact on the landscape of hip - hop throughout the genre & apos ; s existence , jay - z is arguably the most captivating and surely the most successful , with an empire and legacy that is as historic as they come . although it can be debated if he & apos ; s the best mc of all time , depending on your particular criteria , in terms of rap figures , no other artist in hip - hop has beat the odds quite like hov . this is in large part why the rapper remains as celebrated as he has more than 20 years after unleashing his debut album , reasonable doubt , in 1996 .
so when rumors began to swirl about jay - z planning to release his 13th solo studio album , the news instantly created an air of excitement among listeners , critics and even fellow rappers , all eager to see what hov would bring to the table this time . however , more importantly , the anticipation was also a byproduct of the hip - hop populous & apos ; curiosity about whether he was still capable of wowing us with his sheer lyrical ability and innate observations or if he had a lost a step—many had whispered as such following the release of his last solo lp , 2013 & apos ; s magna carta holy grail .

rexine is the registered trademark of an artificial leather leathercloth fabric produced in the united kingdom by rexine ltd of hyde , near manchester , england .

it was made of cloth surfaced with a mixture of cellulose nitrate ( a low explosive also used as the propellant in firearms rounds ) , camphor oil , pigment and alcohol , embossed to look like leather .

used as a bookbinding material and upholstery covering , rexine was also widely used in trimming and upholstering the interiors of motor vehicles produced by british car manufacturers beginning in the 1920s , and the interiors of railway carriages , its cost being around a quarter that of leather .

it was used by the british motor corporation in the 1960s and '70s , particularly as a surface for ' crash padding ' on dashboards and doors .

it was also used for british teddy bear paw and foot pads from the late 1930s to early 1960s .

the author george orwell , writing in his wartime diary on april 29 , 1942 , reported on his visit to the british house of lords : " everything had a somewhat mangy look .

red rexine cushions on the benches - i could swear they used to be red plush at one time . "

the use of rexine in a railway carriage contributed to the rapid spread of fire on the 15:48 west riding express from king 's cross on 14 july 1951

the solar apex , or the apex of the sun 's way , refers to the direction that the sun travels with respect to the local standard of rest .

this is not to be confused with the sun 's apparent motion through the constellations of the zodiac , which is illusory – this supposed motion is actually caused by the earth revolving around the sun .

the solar apex is in the constellation of hercules , southwest of the star vega .

there are several coordinates for the solar apex .

the visual coordinates ( as obtained by visual observation of the apparent motion ) is right ascension ( ra ) 18ʰ 28ᵐ 0ˢ and declination ( dec ) of 30 ° north ( in galactic coordinates : 56.24 ° longitude , 22.54 ° latitude ) .

the radioastronomical position is ra 18ʰ 03ᵐ 50.2 ˢ and dec 30 ° 00 ′ 16.8 ″ ( galactic coordinates : 58.87 ° longitude , 17.72 ° latitude ) .

the speed of the sun towards the solar apex is about 20 km/s .

this speed is not to be confused with the orbital speed of the sun around the galactic center , which is about 220 km/s and is included in the movement of the local standard of rest .

thus the sun gains distance towards the apex at about 1/13 its orbital speed .

the sun 's motion in the milky way is not a simple ellipse in the galactic plane ; it also shifts ( " bobs " ) up and down with respect to the plane .

the nature and extent of the solar motion was first demonstrated by william herschel in 1783 , who also first determined the direction for the solar apex to lambda herculis , only 10 ° away from today 's accepted position .

the solar antapex , the direction opposite of the solar apex , is located near the star zeta canis majoris .

solar apex

the point directly opposite the solar apex is called the solar antapex and lies in the constellation columba at about r . a . 6h , dec . - 30° .

…reference frame is called the apex of solar motion . in addition , the calculation of the solar motion provides dispersion in velocity . such dispersions are as intrinsically interesting as the solar motions themselves because a dispersion is an indication of the integrity of the selection of stars used as a reference…

when scientists found that the sun moves at very high speeds , they also found that these movements will not continue on forever , but rather that the sun is moving towards a specific point near the constellation hercules called the solar apex , which is also known as the apex of the sun’s way .
the solar apex is the point on the celestial sphere , in the constellation hercules ( at about r . a . 18h , dec . + 30° ) , toward which the sun is moving with respect to the local standard of rest , at a rate of about 19 . 4 kilometers per second ( about 4 . 09 astronomical units per year ) . as the sun slowly orbits the galactic center , nearby stars ( as seen from earth ) appear to move away from the solar apex because of the sun ' s relative velocity .

, which in turn leads to a radius of 4 . 6 times solar . a minimum equatorial rotation velocity of just 25 kilometers per second ( low for the class , suggesting that the star may appear more or less pole - on ) gives a rotation period of under 9 days . stellar structure theory leads to a mass very close to 8 times that of the sun , and shows the star to be roughly half way through its hydrogen - fusing dwarf lifetime of only 32 million years . while there is a rumor that the star is variable , there seems to be no supporting evidence . in spite of its name , furud is not solitary , but has a lower - mass
companion that shifts furud proper back and forth as the two orbit over a period of 675 days ( 1 . 85 years ) . nothing is known about it . a guess of two solar masses ( consistent with the degree of shift ) gives a separation of 3 . 2 astronomical units ( 60 percent jupiter ' s distance from the sun ) , a high eccentricity of 0 . 57 moving the stars between 5 . 1 and 1 . 4 au apart . furud is listed as having an eighth magnitude companion at an angular separation of nearly three minutes of arc , but the dimmer star ' s class and motion clearly show the
companionship
to be merely a line - of - sight coincidence . furud is perilously close to the mass limit above which stars explode as

furud ( zeta canis majoris ) . the proper name of this prominent near - dead - on - third - magnitude ( 3 . 02 ) star derives from the arabic
al - furud ,
meaning
single
or
solitary ones ,
a plural applying to any such star , but erroneously stuck on bayer ' s zeta cma alone . it certainly qualifies , as it is set rather well away from the main figure of
, the dove ( making furud quite easy to find ) . and as a luminous , hot , blue class b ( b2 . 5 ) dwarf , it ' s well worth locating . the star ' s rather goodly distance of 335 light years ( known to an accuracy of about six percent ) and proximity to the
causes it to be dimmed a bit by interstellar dust , by 0 . 16 magnitudes ( about 16 percent ) . making that correction , and another for a large amount of ultraviolet light radiated by a surface heated to 21 , 500 kelvin , we find a high luminosity 4020 times that of the
instead , perhaps a rare one composed of neon and oxygen rather than the usual carbon - oxygen mix ( the result of advanced nuclear processing ) . zeta cma is an excellent marker for the
antapex of the sun ' s way ,
the direction from which the sun appears to be coming , which lies 3 . 5 degrees due west of the star in the constellation
