Maurice Barrès
In his youth a Boulangist deputy, he progressively developed a theory close tae Romantic naitionalism an shiftit tae the traditionalist richt durin the Dreyfus Affair, leadin the Anti-Dreyfusards alangside Charles Maurras. In 1906, he wis electit baith tae the Académie française an as deputy o the Seine, an till his daith he sat wi the conservative Entente républicaine démocratique. A strang supporter o the Union sacrée (Haly Union) durin Warld War I, Barrès remained a major influence on generations o French writers, as well as on monarchists, altho he wis no a monarchist hissel.

Commonties
The lairgest localities (ceeties, touns, an veelages) are:
Novospassky Destrict
Novospassky Destrict (Новоспасский райо́н) is an admeenistrative an municipal destrict (raion), ane o the 21 in Ulyanovsk Oblast, Roushie.
Testicle
The testicle (frae Laitin testiculus, diminutive o testis, meanin "witness" o virility, plural testes) is the male gonad in ainimals. Lik the ovaries tae which they are homologous, testes are components o baith the reproductive seestem an the endocrine seestem. The primary functions o the testes are tae produce sperm (spermatogenesis) an tae produce androgens, primarily testosterone.
Appearance
Males hae twa testicles o seemilar size conteened within the scrotum, that is an extension o the abdominal wall. Scrotal asymmetry is nae unusual: ane testicle extends forder doun intae the scrotum nor the ither due tae differences in the anatomy o the vasculatur.
Meisurment
The dimensions o the average adult testicle are up tae 2 inches lang, 0.8 inches in breidth, an 1.2 inches in hicht (5 × 2 × 3 cm). The Tanner scale for the maturity o male genitals assigns a maturity stage tae the calculatit vollum rangin frae stage I, a vollum o less nor 1.5 ml; tae stage V, a vollum greater nor 20 ml. Normal vollum is 15 tae 25 ml; the average is 18 cm³ per testis (range 12 cm³ to 30 cm³.
Duct seestem
The testes are kivert bi a teuch membranous shell cried the tunica albuginea. Within the testes are verra fine coiled tubes cried seminiferous tubules. The tubules are lined wi a layer o cells (germ cells) that develop frae puberty throu auld age intae sperm cells (kent as spermatozoa or male gametes forby). The developin sperm travel throu the seminiferous tubules tae the rete testis locatit in the mediastinum testis, tae the efferent ducts, an then tae the epididymis whaur newly creatit sperm cells matur (see spermatogenesis). The sperm muive intae the vas deferens, an are eventually expelled throu the urethra an oot o the urethral orifice throu muscular contractions.
Bluid supplee an lymphatic drainage
Bluid supplee an lymphatic drainage o the testes an scrotum are distinct:
Layers
Mony anatomical featurs o the adult testis reflect its developmental oreegin in the abdomen. The layers o tishie enclosin ilk testicle are derived frae the layers o the anterior abdominal waw. Notably, the cremasteric muscle arises frae the internal oblique muscle.
The bluid–testis barrier
Muckle molecules canna pass frae the bluid intae the lumen o a seminiferous tubule due tae the presence o ticht junctions atween adjacent Sertoli cells. The spermatogonia are in the basal compartment (deep tae the level o the ticht junctions) an the mair matur forms such as primar an seicontar spermatocytes an spermatids are in the adluminal compairtment.
The function o the bluid–testis baurier (reid heichlicht in diagram abuin) mey be tae prevent an auto-immune reaction. Matur sperm (an thair antigens) arise lang efter immune tolerance is established in infancy. Tharefore, syne sperm are antigenically different frae sel tishie, a male ainimal can react immunologically tae his awn sperm. In fact, he is capable o makkin antibouks against them.
Injection o sperm antigens causes inflammation o the testis (auto-immune orchitis) an reduced fertility. Sicweys, the bluid–testis baurier mey reduce the likeliheid that sperm proteins will induce an immune response, reducin fertility an sae progeny.
Gene an protein expression
The human genome includes approximately 20,000 protein codin genes: 80% o thir genes are expressed in adult testes. The testes have the heichest fraction o tishie teep-speceefic genes compared tae ither organs an tishies: aboot 1000 o them are heichly speceefic for the testes, an aboot 2,200 shaw an elevatit pattern o expression here. A majority o thir genes encode for proteins that are expressed in the seminiferous tubules an hae functions relatit tae spermatogenesis. Sperm cells express proteins that result in the development o flagella; thir same proteins are expressed in the female in cells linin the fallopian tube, an cause the development o cilia. In ither wirds, sperm cell flagella an Fallopian tube cilia are homologous structurs. The testis-specific proteins that shaw the heichest level o expression are protamines.
Development
Thare are twa phases in that the testes growe substantially; namely in embryonic an pubertal age.
Embryonic
In mammalian development, the gonads are at first capable o acomin aither ovaries or testes. In humans, stairtin at aboot week 4 the gonadal rudiments are present within the intermediate mesoderm adjacent tae the developin neers. At aboot week 6, sex cords develop within the formin testes. Thir are made up o early Sertoli cells that surroond an nurtur the germ cells that migrate intae the gonads shortly afore sex determination begins. In males, the sex-speceefic gene SRY that is foond on the Y-chromosome ineetiates sex determination bi dounstream regulation o sex-determinin factors, (sic as GATA4, SOX9 an AMH), that leads tae development o the male phenoteep, includin directin development o the early bipotential gonad doun the male path o development.
Testes follae the "path o strynd" frae heich in the posterior fetal abdomen tae the inguinal ring an ayont tae the inguinal canal an intae the scrotum. In maist cases (97% full-term, 70% preterm), baith testes hae stryndit bi birth. In maist ither cases, anerly ane testis fails tae strynd (cryptorchidism) an that will probably express itsel within a year.
Pubertal
The testes growe in response tae the stairt o spermatogenesis. Size depends on lytic function, sperm production (amoont o spermatogenesis present in testis), interstitial fluid, and Sertoli cell fluid production.
Diseases an condeetions
Testicular enlairgement is an unspeceefic sign o various testicular diseases, an can be defined as a testicular size o mair nor 5 cm (lang axis) x 3 cm (short axis).
Blue baws is a slang term for a temporar fluid congestion in the testicles an prostate region caused bi prolanged sexual arousal.
Testicular prostheses are available tae mimic the appearance and feel o ane or baith testicles, whan absent as frae injury or as treatment in association to gender dysphoria. Thare hae been some instances o thair implantation in dugs an aw.
Effects o exogenous hormones
Seemilarly, stimulation o testicular functions via gonadotropic-lik hormones mey enlarge thair size. Testes mey shrink or atrophy in hormone replacement therapy or throu chemical castration.
In aw cases, the loss in testes vollum corresponds wi a loss o spermatogenesis.
Society an cultur
Testicles o a male cauf or ither fermstockin are cuiked an eaten in a dish whiles cried Rocky Mountain oysters.
As early as 330 BC, Aristotle prescrived the ligation (tyin aff) o the left testicle in men wishin tae hae boys. In the Middle Ages, men that wantit a boy whiles haed thair left testicle remuived. This wis acause fowk believed that the richt testicle made "boy" sperm an the left made "girl" sperm.
Etymology
Ane theory aboot the etymology o the wird testis is based on Roman law. The oreeginal Laitin wird testis, "witness", wis used in the firmly established legal principle "Testis unus, testis nullus" (ane witness [equals] na witness), meanin that testimony bi ony ane person in coort wis tae be disregairdit unless corroboratit bi the testimony o at least anither. This led tae the common practice o producin twa witnesses, bribed tae testify the same wey in cases o lawsuits wi ulterior motives. Syne siv "witnesses" ayeweys came in pairs, the meanin wis accordinly extendit, eften in the diminutive (testiculus, testiculi).
Anither theory says that testis is influenced bi a lend translation, frae Greek parastatēs "defender (in law), supporter" that is "twa glands side bi side".
Freemit appearance
In shairks, the testicle on the richt side is uisually mair muckle, an in mony bird an mammal species, the left mey be the larger. The primitive jawless fish hae anerly a single testis, locatit in the midline o the bouk, awtho even this forms frae the fusion o paired structurs in the embryo.
Internal
The basal condeetion for mammals is tae hae internal testes. Thare are some marsupials wi freemit testes an Boreoeutherian mammals wi internal testes, sic as the rhinoceros. Cetaceans sic as whauls an dowphins hae internal testes an aw. As freemit testes wad increase drag in the watter thay hae internal testes that are keepit cuil bi special circulatory seestems that cuil the arterial bluid gaein tae the testes bi placin the arteries near veins bringin cuiled venous bluid frae the skin.
Freemit
Boreoeutherian laund mammals, the muckle group o mammals that includes humans, hae freemitised testes. Thair testes function best at temperaturs lawer nor thair core bouk temperatur. Thair testes are locatit ootside o the bouk, suspendit bi the spermatic cord within the scrotum.
Thare are several hypotheses why maist boreotherian mammals hae fremmit testes that operate best at a temperatue that is slichtly less nor the core bouk temperatur, e.g. that it is stuck wi enzymes evolved in a caulder temperatur due tae freemit testes evolvin for different raisons, that the lawer temperatur o the testes semply is mair efficient for sperm production.
1) Mair efficient. The clessic hypothesis is that cuiler temperatur o the testes allous for mair efficient fertile spermatogenesis. In ither wirds, thare are na possible enzymes operatin at normal core bouk temperatur that are as efficient as the anes evolved, at least nane appearin in our evolution so faur.
Houiver, the quaisten remeens why birds despite haein verra heich core bouk temperaturs hae internal testes an did nae evolve freemit testes. It wis ance theorised that birds uised their air sacs tae cuil the testes internally, but later studies revealed that birds' testes are able tae function at core bouk temperatur.
Some mammals that hae saisonal breedin cycles keep thair testes internal till the breedin saison at that pynt thair testes strynd an increase in size an acome freemit.
2) Irreversible adaptation tae sperm competeetion. It haes been suggestit that the auncestor o the boreoeutherian mammals was a smaw mammal that required verra muckle testes (aiblins raither lik thae o a hamster) for sperm competeetion an sicweys haed tae place its testes ootside the byle. This led tae enzymes involved in spermatogenesis, spermatogenic DNA polymerase beta an recombinase activities evolvin a unique temperatur optimum, slichtly less nor core bouk temperatur. Whan the boreoeutherian mammals then diversifee'd intae forms that war muckler an/or did nae require intense sperm competeetion thay still produced enzymes that operatit best at cuiler temperaturs an haed tae keep thair testes ootside the bouk. This poseetion is made less parsimonious bi the fact that the kangaroo, a non-boreoeutherian mammal, has freemit testicles. The auncestors o kangaroos micht, separately frae boreotherian mammals, hae been subject to hivy sperm competeetion an sicweys developit freemit testes, houiver, kangaroo freemit testes are suggestive o a possible adaptive function for freemit testes in muckle ainimals.
3) Protection frae abdominal cavity pressure changes. Ane argiement for the evolution o freemit testes is that it pertects the testes frae abdominal cavity pressur chynges caused bi jimpin an gallopin.
4) Pertection against DNA damage. Mild, transient scrotal heat stress causes DNA damage, reduced fertility an abnormal embryonic development in mice.  DNA strand breaks war foond in spermatocytes recovered frae testicles subjectit tae 40 °C or 42 °C for 30 meenits.  Thir findings suggest that the freemit location o the testicles provides the adaptive benefit o pertectin spermatogenic cells frae heat-induced DNA damage that coud itherwise lead tae infertility an germline mutation.
Size
The relative size o testes is eften influenced bi matin seestems. Testicular size as a proportion o bouk wecht varies widely. In the mammalian kinrick, there is a tendency for testicular size tae correspond wi multiple mates (e.g., harems, polygamy). Production o testicular ootput sperm an spermatic fluid is lairger in polygamous ainimals, possibly a spermatogenic competeetion for survival. The testes o the richt whaul are likely tae be the maist muckle o ony animal, ilk wechtin aroond 500 kg (1,100 lb).
Internal structur
Unner a teuch membranous shell cried the tunica albuginea, the testis o amniotes, as well as some teleost fish, conteens verra fine coiled tubes cried seminiferous tubules.
Amphibians an maist fish dae nae possess seminiferous tubules. Instead, the sperm are produced in spherical structures cried sperm ampullae. Thir are saisonal structurs, releasin thair contents in the breedin saison, an then bein reabsorbed bi the bouk. Afore the next breedin saison, new sperm ampullae begin tae form an ripen. The ampullae are itherwise essentially identical tae the seminiferous tubules in heicher vertebrates, includin the same range o cell teeps.

Andrea Echeverri
Andrea Echeverri (born 13 September, 1965) is a Colombie sangster an guitarist. She is the lead sangster in Aterciopelados whaur she plays the acoustic guitar an aw. Echeverri haes lang captivatit audiences wi her potently melodic buist o feminism. In Mairch 2005 her debut solo album "Andrea Echeverri" wis released bi Nacional Records, a label focused on promotin the best in Laitin alternative muisic. She is o Basque strynd.
Andrea Echeverri (album)
Efter the critical an commercial success o 2001's Gozo Poderoso, which laundit Aterciopelados on the Top 10 o the Billboard Top Latin Albums Sales chairt as well as a covetit appearance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Echeverri teuk time aff for the birth o her first bairn Milagros, who haes pruioven tae be a new point o airtistic inspiration. The result is the sel-titled album Andrea Echeverri, her first solo release. The disc wis producit bi Hector Buitrago frae Aterciopelados an mixed bi Thom Russo (Juanes, Kinky, Johnny Cash), an featurs a remix frae Richard Blair (Sidestepper) an aw.
On "A Eme O", the album's upbeat first single, Echeverri sings “Since you were born, I've become a better lover. Its as if you've unplugged my tubes.” On the chill-oot lullaby track "Baby Blues" (which wis featured in the soondtrack for the film La mujer de mi hermano), she observes the bond atween mither an dochter as Milagros cries late at nicht. "Some sangs are written for Milagros, but they soond like they're written for a lover," said Andrea. Goin ever further, she satirizes the heichly sexualisit leerics o the Colombie genre cried champeta, namin ane o the albums tracks "Lactochampeta". “It's kynd o a joke, acause it haes explicit leerics aboot lactatin,” muses Andrea.
Performances an Projects
A series o tour dates follaeed the album's release, includin heidlinin the Latin Alternative Music Conference's Women Who Rock concert in front o 10,000 fowk at the Santa Monica Pier in Los Angeles, as well as the La Banda Elastica Magazine Awards.
Recognitions
In 2005 the album “Andrea Echeverri” wis nominatit for a Latin Grammy Award for “Best Female Pop Vocal Album.” The album wis nominatit for a Grammy Award for “Best Latin Pop Album” in 2006.
For the MTV-LA Awards in 2005, Echeverri wis nominatit in fower categories, winnin for “Best New Artist – Central.”
In 2006 the album receivit twa nominations for the Premios Lo Nuestro Awards - “Rock Album of the Year” an “Song of the Year” for the single “A Eme O.”

Early history
Afore the Rhondda wis industrialisit in the mid tae late 19t century, the aurie whaur Williamstown nou resides, wis made up o firthlands occupeed bi spairsely populatit fermlands. Williamstown exhibits very little evidence o early habitation, a few Bronze Age cairns hae been discovered on Mynydd Dinas, but maist hafodi an ferm hooses tendit tae group aroond the River Rhondda locatit lawer doun the glen.
Hintle o the laund in the Rhondda, ance controlled bi individual fermers, haed been bocht up bi walthy absentee landlairds bi the stairt o the 19t century. The laund which wad become Williamstown wis bocht bi Walter Coffin, the pioneer o coal minin in the Rhondda, aroond the 1850s. In 1867 this laund wis inheritit bi the Williams faimily, through their faither, a cousin o Coffin. The Williams faimily gave their name tae the toun that wis built on their laund an amang the trustees o the faimily wis Caroline Elizabeth Williams, Arthur John Williams an Morgan Bransby Williams.

Aalborg Municipality
Aalborg Municipality is a municipality (Dens, kommune) in the North Denmark Region on the Jutland peninsulae in northren Denmark. The municipality straddles the Limfjord, the waterwa which connects the North Sea an the Kattegat east-tae-wast, an which separates the main body o the Jutland peninsula frae the island o Vendsyssel-Thy north-tae-sooth. It haes a land aurie o 1,143.99 km², population 197,426 (2010) and belongs to Region Nordjylland ("North Jutland Region").
It is an aa the name o the municipality's main ceety Aalborg an the site o its municipal cooncil, as well as the name o a seaport.
The municipality an the ceety hae chosen tae retain the traditional spellin o the name as Aalborg, although the new spellin Ålborg is uised in ither contexts, such as Ålborg Bight (Ålborg Bugt), the body o water which lies tae the east o the Jutland peninsula.
Municipal reform o 2007
On 1 Januar 2007 Aalborg municipality joined wi the municipalities o Hals, Nibe, an Sejlflod tae form a new Aalborg municipality. The umwhile Aalborg municipality, includin the island o Egholm, covered an aurie o 560 km2 (220 sq mi), wi a total population o 192,353 (2005). Its last mayor wis Henning G. Jensen, a member o the Social Democrats (Socialdemokraterne) poleetical pairty. The umwhile municipality wis bordered bi Sejlflod an Hals tae the east, Dronninglund an Brønderslev tae the north, Aabybro an Nibe tae the wast, an Støvring an Skørping tae the sooth. It belonged tae North Jutland Coonty.
Surroondins
The waters in the Limfjord splittin the municipality are cried Langerak tae the east an Gjøl Bredning tae the wast. The island o Egholm is locatit in Gjøl Bredning, an is connectit bi ferry tae the ceety of Aalborg at its soothren shore.
The aurie is typical for the north o Jutland. Tae the wast the Limfjord broadens intae an irregular lake (salt water), wi law, marshy shores an mony islands. Northwast is Store Vildmose ("Greater Wild bog"), a swamp whaur a mirage is sometimes seen in simmer. Sootheast lies the similar Lille Vildmose ("Lesser Wild bog"). Store Vildmose wis drained an fermed in the beginnin o the 20t century, an Lille Vildmose is nou the lairgest moor in Denmark.
Urban auries in Aalborg Municipality
Aalborg Ceety haes a total population at 123,432. The metropolitan aurie is a conurbation o the Aalborg urban aurie in Himmerland (102,312) an the Nørresundby urban aurie in Vendsyssel (21,120).

Banner o Indonesie
The naitional banner o Indonesie, which is kent as Sang Saka Merah-Putih ("The Sacred Red-and-White") or Bendera Merah-Putih ("The Red-an-White Banner") or simply Merah-Putih ("The Red-an-White") in Indonesian, is based on the banner o the 13t century Majapahit Empire in East Java. The banner itsel wis introduced an hoistit in public at the Indonesian Unthrildom Day ceremony, on 17 August 1945. The design o the banner haes remained the same iver syne.
The design o the banner is semple wi twa equal horizontal baunds, red (top) an white (bottom) wi an oweraw ratio o 2:3. The banner is seemilar tae the banner o Poland an banner o Singapore. The banner is identical tae the banner o Hesse (a German state) an banner o Monaco, excludin the ratio. Red represents courage, while white represents purity o intent.
The Naval Jack o Indonesie is reserved for sole uise bi Indonesian Navy. It flies frae ivery active Indonesian war ship mast. The design o the jack is describit as nine alternatin stripes o reid an white. It is nicknamed Ular-ular Perang (War Pennant or litterally "War Snakes"), probably due tae the stripes design. The naval jack dates tae the age Majapahit Empire. The Majapahit Empire, which wis renouned for its great maritime strength, uised tae flee seemilar jacks on its vessels.
History
Its colors are derived frae the banner o the 13t century Majapahit Empire. Later, thir colors wur revived bi students an then naitionalists in the early 20t century as an expression o naitionalism against the Dutch. The reid-white banner wis flewn for the first time in Java in 1928. Unner Dutch rule, the banner wis prohibitit. It wis adoptit as the naitional banner on 17 August 1945, when unthrildom wis declared an haes been in uise syne then.
Alternative history
Thare is an aa anither story aboot the banner o Indonesie, which is significantly relatit tae the banner o the Netherlands. Unner Dutch colonialism, ivery admeenistration uised the Netherlands (Red-white-blue) banner. The banner o Indonesie wis prohibitit. Tae seembolise the intention o forcin oot the Dutch, the Indonesian naitionalists an umthirldom movement tore apart the Dutch banner. Thay tore aff the bottom third o the banner, an separatit the reid an white colors frae the blue colour. The main reason wis acause blue in the Dutch banner wis unnerstood as staunding for the "blue bloodit" aristocracy. Conversely, the reid colour representit the bluid shed in the War o Unthrildom, while the white coud be unnerstood tae seembolise the purity o the Indonesians.
Name
The offeecial name o the banner is Sang Merah-Putih (The Reid-an-White) accordin tae Airticle 35 o the 1945 Constitution. The banner is commonly cawed Bendera Merah-Putih (Red-an-White Banner). Occasionally, it is an aa cawed Sang Dwiwarna (The bicolor). Sang Saka Merah-Putih (The Lofty Reid-an-White) refers tae the historical banner cawed Bendera Pusaka (heirloom banner) an its replica. The Bendera Pusaka is the banner that wis flewn in front of Sukarno's hoose a few moments efter he proclaimed Indonesie's unthrildom on 17 August 1945. The oreeginal Bendera Pusaka wis sewn bi Mrs. Fatmawati Soekarno, an wis hoistit ivery year in front o the presidential palace durin the unthrildom day ceremony. It wis hoistit for the last time on 17 August 1968. Syne then it haes been preserved an replaced bi a replica acause the oreeginal banner wis deemed tae be too fragile.
Seembolism
The red staunds for courage, while the white staunds for purity. ''The red represents human's body or pheesical life, while white represents human's soul or spiritual life. Thegither they staund for a complete human being.''
