The Tollense () is a river in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania in northeastern Germany, right tributary of the Peene. The river starts as the outflow of the lake Tollensesee in Neubrandenburg. The Tollense is long and empties into the river Peene in Demmin. History. According to several reports in the German media, several human remains of the bronze period have been found in the region named Tollense valley () since 1997. Many showed signs of injury and violent death. In 2008 research was concentrated on an area of . Hundreds of bone fragments, as well as wooden weaponry and flintstone arrowheads have been discovered. The finds were possible due to the preservation of the former swamp ground and the fact that the Tollense has never really changed its flow. It is now estimated that about 200 people died in a battle-like scenario in that valley about 1250 BC. Since the population then was about 5 people per square kilometre, about 13 people per square mile, this would've been the most important battle in Bronze Age Germany yet to be discovered. More investigation of the grounds is planned for the years 2010 to 2015.

Fritz Reuter (7 November 1810 – 12 July 1874) was a German novelist. He was born at Stavenhagen in Mecklenburg-Schwerin. In 1831, Reuter started to study at the University of Rostock, and in 1832 went to the University of Jena. At Jena he joined a "Burschenschaft" (nationalist students' club). In 1833 he was arrested in Berlin by the Prussian government. They could only prove he had worn the club's colours, but he was condemned to death for high treason. King Frederick William III of Prussia changed this to imprisonment for thirty years. In 1838 he was sent to a prison in Mecklenburg-Schwerin, and he spent two years in the fortress of Dömitz. Reuter was set free in 1840, when Frederick William IV became king of Prussia. After his release from prison, Reuter started studying law again at the University of Heidelberg but had to leave and go back to Stavenhagen and help to run his father's farm. When his father died, he gave up farming, and in 1850 became a private teacher in a little town then called Treptow-an-der-Tollense in Pomerania. Here he married Luise Kunze, the daughter of a Mecklenburg pastor. Reuter's first book was written in Low German. It was published in 1853. Three years later Reuter decided to give up teaching to become a writer, so he left Treptow and moved to Neubrandenburg. "Ut de Franzosentid" and "Ut mine Stromtid" are Reuter's best books. In them he describes the men and women he knew in the villages and farmhouses of Mecklenburg. "Ut de Franzosentid" is set at the time of the fight against Napoleon. "Ut mine Stromtid" describes the revolutionary movement of 1848. In 1863 Reuter moved from Neubrandenburg to Eisenach and here he died on 12 July 1874. In the

The Egyptian Revolution of 1915 had a strong effect on Mahfouz, although he was at the time only seven years old. From the window he often saw English soldiers firing at the demonstrators, men and women. "You could say," he later noted, "that the one thing which most shook the security of my childhood was the 1919 revolution." Before the Nobel Prize only a few of his novels had appeared in the West.

The Puritans were a group of English-speaking Protestants in the 16th and 17th centuries. A Puritan was any person who tried to become purer through worship and doctrine. Puritans disagreed with some of the Church of England's actions and thought that the English Reformation had not gone far enough.  In 1534, King Henry VIII separated from the Roman Catholic Church and established the Protestant Church of England. Queen Mary returned the Church to Roman Catholicism in 1553, and this did not change until Elizabeth I became Queen of England. Many people celebrated the return of a Protestant monarch, but some believed that the Church had not changed enough and was still too much like Catholicism. Beliefs. The Puritans' beliefs and way of life were called Puritanism. The most important parts of Puritanism were piety (obeying religious rules), dressing simply, and living a modest life. The Puritans believed some of the same things as Calvinists and Scottish Presbyterians. All of these groups were devoted to the Bible and to being morally pure. One of the Puritans' most important beliefs was that every person needed to understand the Bible in his own way. (Most Protestants share this belief.) Puritans tried to live by the Bible's teachings in every way. They tried to be morally and spiritually pure in even the smallest ways. They thought that man existed for the glory of God, and that man's most important job in life was to do God's will (what God wanted). By doing God's will, they believed, man would be rewarded with future happiness. Because they did not agree with the way the Church of England did things, the Puritans made reforms, or changes, in their own churches and societies. Some of the Reformed churches in Europe made similar changes.  The Puritans made preaching very important. They used as little ritual and decoration as possible. Very often, sermons talked about Hell. One famous sermon is "Sinners in the hands of an angry god" by Jonathan Edwards, an important Puritan preacher. The sermon talks about God being angry with people for sinful behavior, and throwing them

A dependent territory, dependent area or dependency is a territory that is not fully independent or sovereign, and also not fully part of a independent country. As such, a dependent territory is included in such types of territories from associated states to non-self-governing territorys (for example, a colony). A dependent territory is commonly different from a subnational entity of which is considered to be not a part of the sovereign state nor its constituent part, instead, is understood a division of a state proper. A dependent territory often maintains some degree of autonomy not enjoyed by the administrative divisions of the country. Historically, most colonies were considered to be dependent territories. Not all autonomous polities are dependent territories, and not all dependent territories are autonomous. Most inhabited dependent territories have their own ISO 3166 code. Some polities inhabit positions taken from the treaty or other such agreement, thereby creating a such certain degree of autonomy (for example, a difference in immigration rules). Those entities are sometimes considered to be, or are at least grouped with, dependent territories, but are officially considered by their governing states to be an integral part of those states. Such as a example is Åland, a autonomous region of Finland. Summary. The article include the following: Lists of dependent territories. This list includes all territories that have not been legally incorporated into their governing state, including several territories that are not on the list of non-self-governing territories of the General Assembly of the United Nations.

Pidgin (or pidgin language) is a simplified language that evolves to make communication easier between groups with no common language. Pidgin uses a combination of different languages, simplified grammar, and reduced vocabulary. This makes it easier to learn and use.  Usually, pidgin languages develop for a specific purpose, like trade. They often emerge through slavery and/or colonization. When people speak a pidgin as their first language, it evolves naturally into a Creole language. The term "pidgin" originates from the Chinese word "pídīng", meaning "business" or "trading." Features. To make communication easier, pidgin languages often have elements (like vocabulary and basic grammar) that come from from multiple languages. Pidgins are typically used in specific situations (like trade), and not as first languages. Pidgin speakers usually maintain their native, non-pidgin languages. For this reason, pidgins are not as complex or stable as fully developed languages. Pidgin and Creole languages. Pidgin languages develop before Creole languages. Pidgin vs. Creole. Pidgin. Pidgin languages are simplified so it is easier to learn and use them. They have: Over time, as pidgin languages become more stable and are passed on to the next generation as a native language, they can evolve into creole languages. Creole. Creoles are fully developed languages with their own grammar, vocabulary, and syntax. They often include elements from the pidgin's parent languages, but they also have their own unique features. Creole languages arise when children speak pidgin as their first language and use it for all purposes - not just its original purpose (like trade). Thus, pidgin languages serve as simplified contact languages for immediate communication. However,  Creolization. Pidgins become Creole languages when they become more stable, and when there are native speakers who use pidgin as their first language.

SOCKS is an Internet protocol that allows one client computer to connect to another computer via a third computer (SOCKS server). SOCKS is an abbreviation for "SOCKetS". When a direct connection between two computers (clients) is not possible for some services (e.g. HTTP, FTP, or chat protocols like MSN and AOL), a user can use these services via a so-called SOCKS server (routing). Example: Bill wants to chat with Jane. Bill has a bad service provider who limits internet access. Bill's computer then connects to the SOCKS server, which is able to "chat" with Jane's computer without restrictions. An HTTP proxy works similar to a SOCKS server, but is limited on routing HTTP traffic only.
Corsican ("" or "Lingua Corsa") is a Romance language spoken on the island of Corsica (France), together with French, which is the official language. Similar languages are also spoken on the nearby island of Sardinia (Italy), in the city of Sassari and the historical region of Gallura. Corsican is similar to the dialects of Central Italy, particularly in Tuscany. Corsican is spoken by almost 35% of people in Corsica. According to its UNESCO classification, the Corsican language is now in danger of becoming extinct. The language is separated into two dialects, "Northern Corsican", spoken in the Bastia and Corte areas, and "Southern Corsican", spoken around Sartene and Porto-Vecchio. The dialect of Ajaccio has been described as in transition. The dialects spoken at Calvi and Bonifacio are like the Genoa dialect, also known as Ligurian. In the Sardinian region of Gallura, including the town of Tempio Pausania, and on the island of La Maddalena "Gallurese" is spoken. The Corsican language is very important for the Corsican culture, because it is really rich in proverbs.
