synagogue
|
On 4 May 1858, a new temple opened on the Place Bellecour in a rented hall, but the community wanted to build a synagogue that could properly represent the community.
|
On 23 October 1857, Emperor Napoleon III, by decree, created a regional Consistory, which gathered communities in the departments of Rhone, Loire, Isère, Ain, Jura, Saône-et-Loire and Doubs.
|
On 24 June 1858, the first regional Chief Rabbi took office and on 5 December of the same year the Consistory received its charter.
|
On 5 December 1859, the Consistory solicited to Senator and prefect of Lyon Claude-Marius Vaïsse a land to build a synagogue.
|
On 3 September 1860, the city of Lyon proposed to the community a plot of land in the Jardin des Plantes and the Montée des Carmélites in the 1st arrondissement of Lyon.

headquarters
|
On 8 January 1942, he therefore contacted the headquarters of 1st Airborne Division and 38 Wing RAF, asking if they were able to conduct the raid.
|
They considered that such a raid would result in high casualties among the attacking troops and would not be fast enough to capture the Würzburg radar before it was destroyed by the Germans.
|
Believing that surprise and speed were to be the essential requirements of any raid against the installation to ensure the radar was captured, Mountbatten saw an airborne assault as the only viable method.
|
The division's commander, Major-General Frederick Browning, was particularly enthusiastic, as a successful operation would be an excellent morale boost to the airborne troops under his command, as well as a good demonstration of their value.
|
The two commanders believed that training by both airborne troops and aircrews could be completed by the end of February when there would be suitable meteorological conditions for such an operation to take place.

administration
|
On January 9, 2000, the administration of President Jamil Mahuad announced its intention to adopt the U.S. dollar as the official currency of Ecuador to address the ongoing economic crisis.
|
The crisis was precipitated by a number of external shocks, including the El Niño weather phenomenon in 1997, a sharp drop in global oil prices in 1997–98, and international emerging market instability in 1997–98.
|
These factors highlighted the Government of Ecuador's unsustainable economic policy mix of large fiscal deficits and expansionary money policy and resulted in a 7.3% contraction of GDP, annual year-on-year inflation of 52.2%, and a 65% devaluation of the national currency in 1999.
|
Subsequent protest led to the 2000 Ecuadorean coup d'état which saw Mahuad's removal from office and the elevation of Vice President Gustavo Noboa to the presidency.
|
The Noboa government confirmed its commitment to convert to the dollar as the centerpiece of its economic recovery strategy, successfully completing the transition from sucres to dollars in 2001.

Since its founding in 1959, members of Brahma Vidya Mandir (BVM), an intentional community for women in Paunar, Maharashtra, have dealt with the struggle of translating Gandhian values such as self-sufficiency, non-violence, and public-service into specific practices of food production and consumption.
|
BVM's existence and the counter-narrative its residents practice demonstrate how one community debate the practicalities and tradeoffs in their application of self-sufficiency, non-violence, and radical democracy to their own social and geographic context.

Instead, at BVM they reject the narrative that success in agriculture comes from expensive technology.

Origins The horses of the Charente basin were, according to Jean-Henri Magne, "as varied as the earth that nourishes them."
|
This type of crossbreed, namely a native mare of carriage or military orientation bred with a thoroughbred stallion, was recognized in 1914 under the name "half-blood."
|
Such "half-blood" breeds can be found in many regions of France, typically taking their names from their native regions.
|
To the west, in the marshes of Rochefort and Marennes, one could find horses with thick skin, strong manes, wide feet, poorly-formed legs, long and spindly barrels, capable of going for a long time without drinking, yet difficult to break in.

André Sanson summarized their history as follows: The draining of the marshes thus transformed this breed, which came to take on lighter and more regular forms.

Pegler saw himself a populist and muckraker whose mission was to warn the nation that dangerous leaders were in power.
|
PAC and politics of 1940s New enemies appeared for the labor unions after 1935.
|
Newspaper columnist Westbrook Pegler was especially outraged by the New Deal's support for powerful labor unions that he considered morally and politically corrupt.
|
In 1941 Pegler became the first columnist ever to win a Pulitzer Prize for reporting, for his work in exposing racketeering in Hollywood labor unions, focusing on the criminal career of William Morris Bioff.
|
Pegler's popularity reflected a loss of support for unions and liberalism generally, especially as shown by the dramatic Republican gains in the 1946 elections, often using an anti-union theme.

Political interference kept TVA from securing additional federal appropriations to do so, so it sought the authority to issue bonds.

Increasing power demand By the end of World War II, TVA had completed a navigation channel the length of the Tennessee River and had become the nation's largest electricity supplier.
|
Even so, the demand for electricity was outstripping TVA's capacity to produce power from hydroelectric dams, and so TVA began to construct additional coal-fired plants.
|
Several of TVA's coal-fired plants, including Johnsonville, Widows Creek, Shawnee, Kingston, Gallatin, and John Sevier, began operations in the 1950s.

In 1955 coal surpassed hydroelectricity as TVA's top generating source.

city

PoliticsIn addition to his works on ethics, which address the individual, Aristotle addressed the city in his work titled Politics.
|
Aristotle taught that to achieve a virtuous and potentially happy character requires a first stage of having the fortune to be habituated not deliberately, but by teachers, and experience, leading to a later stage in which one consciously chooses to do the best things.
|
When the best people come to live life this way their practical wisdom (phronesis) and their intellect (nous) can develop with each other towards the highest possible human virtue, the wisdom of an accomplished theoretical or speculative thinker, or in other words, a philosopher.
|
Aristotle considered the city to be a natural community.
|
Moreover, he considered the city to be prior in importance to the family which in turn is prior to the individual, "for the whole must of necessity be prior to the part".

harbor
|
Roman engineers enlarged the western basin with concrete seawalls, and the harbor extended halfway into the modern Foch-Allenby District.
|
A well-protected harbor to the northeast and a sheltered natural basin southwest of the castle's cliff offered safe anchorage in almost any wind conditions.
|
Both still existed in Hellenistic times.
|
Later, in the 17th century, larger vessels were not able to enter the basin.
|
They had to have their cargoes shipped ashore in lighters or small barges.

city

Roman historyThe city was subsequently passed under the control of the Roman Empire.
|
However, the Celtic language continued to be spoken in Galatia for many centuries.
|
At the end of the 4th century, St. Jerome, a native of Dalmatia, observed that the language spoken around Ankara was very similar to that being spoken in the northwest of the Roman world near Trier.
|
In 25 BC, Emperor Augustus raised it to the status of a polis and made it the capital city of the Roman province of Galatia.
|
Ankara is famous for the Monumentum Ancyranum (Temple of Augustus and Rome) which contains the official record of the Acts of Augustus, known as the Res Gestae Divi Augusti, an inscription cut in marble on the walls of this temple.

Royal Governor Sir Francis Nicholson described Middle Plantation as a place where "clear and crystal springs burst from the champagne soil."
|
After serving as a temporary meeting place several times during contingencies of the 17th century when the Capital of the Colony had been located at Jamestown, Middle Plantation became the new Capital of the Virginia Colony in 1699.
|
It was soon renamed Williamsburg in honor of King William III of Great Britain, and is today the site of the Historic District known as Colonial Williamsburg.
|
Geography Middle Plantation was located on a ridge at the western edge of a geographic plateau of the Tidewater Region of southeastern Virginia, from which the land of the coastal plain slopes eastward down to sea level at the lower end of the Virginia Peninsula.
|
At this point, the land portion of the Peninsula was relatively narrow between two creeks which drained into the James River and the York River.
