In 1916 the Russian government decided to reinforce its naval strength outside the Baltic and Black Seas . As Japan and Russia were allies during World War I , the Japanese government sold Sagami and some other ex @-@ Russian warships back to Russia in March . She arrived in Vladivostok on 3 April , where she re @-@ assumed her former name of Peresvet , and was classified as an armored cruiser two days later . The ship ran aground on 23 May while conducting trials and was refloated by the IJN on 9 July . Peresvet arrived at Maizuru Naval Arsenal for repairs on 30 July and sailed for European Russia on 18 October . She was intended to serve with the White Sea Fleet and paused en route in Port Said for machinery repairs at the beginning of 1917 .

The ATP concentration inside the cell is typically 1 – 10 mM . ATP can be produced by redox reactions using simple and complex sugars ( carbohydrates ) or lipids as an energy source . For complex fuels to be synthesized into ATP , they first need to be broken down into smaller , more simple molecules . Carbohydrates are hydrolysed into simple sugars , such as glucose and fructose . Fats ( triglycerides ) are metabolised to give fatty acids and glycerol .

The natural resource base for renewables is extraordinary by European , and even global standards . In addition to an existing installed capacity of 1 @.@ 3 Gigawatts ( GW ) of hydro @-@ electric schemes , Scotland has an estimated potential of 36 @.@ 5 GW of wind and 7 @.@ 5 GW of tidal power , 25 % of the estimated total capacity for the European Union and up to 14 GW of wave power potential , 10 % of EU capacity . The renewable electricity generating capacity may be 60 GW or more , considerably greater than the existing capacity from all Scottish fuel sources of 10 @.@ 3 GW . Scotland exceeded its renewable energy target , set in 2007 , for 31 % of total power generation coming from renewables by 2011 , and the 2020 target for the renewable share of total electricity generation has been raised from 50 % to 80 % .

The film switches the infertility from male to female , but never explains its cause : environmental destruction and divine punishment are considered . This unanswered question ( and others in the film ) have been attributed to Cuarón 's dislike for expository film : " There 's a kind of cinema I detest , which is a cinema that is about exposition and explanations ... It 's become now what I call a medium for lazy readers ... Cinema is a hostage of narrative . And I 'm very good at narrative as a hostage of cinema . " Cuarón 's disdain for back @-@ story and exposition led him to use the concept of female infertility as a " metaphor for the fading sense of hope " . The " almost mythical " Human Project is turned into a " metaphor for the possibility of the evolution of the human spirit , the evolution of human understanding . " Without dictating how the audience should feel by the end of the film , Cuarón encourages viewers to come to their own conclusions about the sense of hope depicted in the final scenes : " We wanted the end to be a glimpse of a possibility of hope , for the audience to invest their own sense of hope into that ending . So if you 're a hopeful person you 'll see a lot of hope , and if you 're a bleak person you 'll see a complete hopelessness at the end . "

Chinese has a large number of nominal classifiers ; estimates of the number in Mandarin range from " several dozen " or " about 50 " , to over 900 . The range is so large because some of these estimates include all types of classifiers while others include only count @-@ classifiers , and because the idea of what constitutes a " classifier " has changed over time . Today , regular dictionaries include 120 to 150 classifiers ; the 8822 @-@ word Syllabus of Graded Words and Characters for Chinese Proficiency ( Chinese : 汉语水平词汇与汉字等级大纲 ; pinyin : Hànyǔ Shuǐpíng Cíhuì yú Hànzi Děngjí Dàgāng ) lists 81 ; and a 2009 list compiled by Gao Ming and Barbara Malt includes 126 . The number of classifiers that are in everyday , informal use , however , may be lower : linguist Mary Erbaugh has claimed that about two dozen " core classifiers " account for most classifier use . As a whole , though , the classifier system is so complex that specialized classifier dictionaries have been published .

The Palatine Gallery , the main gallery of Palazzo Pitti , contains a large ensemble of over 500 principally Renaissance paintings , which were once part of the Medicis ' and their successors ' private art collection . The gallery , which overflows into the royal apartments , contains works by Raphael , Titian , Perugino ( Lamentation over the Dead Christ ) , Correggio , Peter Paul Rubens , and Pietro da Cortona . The character of the gallery is still that of a private collection , and the works of art are displayed and hung much as they would have been in the grand rooms for which they were intended rather than following a chronological sequence , or arranged according to school of art .

In central and northern Italy and in Flanders , the rise of towns that were to a degree self @-@ governing stimulated economic growth and created an environment for new types of trade associations . Commercial cities on the shores of the Baltic entered into agreements known as the Hanseatic League , and the Italian Maritime republics such as Venice , Genoa , and Pisa expanded their trade throughout the Mediterranean . Great trading fairs were established and flourished in northern France during the period , allowing Italian and German merchants to trade with each other as well as local merchants . In the late 13th century new land and sea routes to the Far East were pioneered , famously described in The Travels of Marco Polo written by one of the traders , Marco Polo ( d . 1324 ) . Besides new trading opportunities , agricultural and technological improvements enabled an increase in crop yields , which in turn allowed the trade networks to expand . Rising trade brought new methods of dealing with money , and gold coinage was again minted in Europe , first in Italy and later in France and other countries . New forms of commercial contracts emerged , allowing risk to be shared among merchants . Accounting methods improved , partly through the use of double @-@ entry bookkeeping ; letters of credit also appeared , allowing easy transmission of money .

Blacktip sharks have a timid disposition and consistently lose out to Galapagos sharks ( C. galapagensis ) and silvertip sharks ( C. albimarginatus ) of equal size when competing for food . If threatened or challenged , they may perform an agonistic display : the shark swims towards the threat and then turns away , while rolling from side to side , lowering its pectoral fins , tilting its head and tail upwards , and making sideways biting motions . The entire sequence lasts around 25 seconds . This behavior is similar to the actions of a shark attempting to move a sharksucker ; one of these behaviors possibly is derived from the other .

The French operations in the area were hampered by a lack of a suitable base close to the mouth of the Adriatic ; the British had given the French free access to Malta , but it was hundreds of miles away . The Austrians also possessed several submarines , one of which torpedoed the dreadnought Jean Bart in December 1914 . The threat from underwater weapons greatly limited French naval activities in the Adriatic . As the war progressed , the French eventually settled on Corfu as their primary naval base in the area . In 1916 the ships supported Allied operations in Salonica and also detached landing parties to support the Allied attempt to force Greek acquiescence for those operations in Athens on 1 December . They spent the rest of the war at Salonica and Athens . Patrie became flagship of the French squadron at Salonica in 1918 . During the war , four of Patrie 's 3 @-@ pounder guns were converted into anti @-@ aircraft guns with new high @-@ angle mounts .

Charles Arbuthnot was a widower with four children ; his son Charles was a mere nine years junior to his new wife . His first wife Marcia , a lady in waiting to the notorious Princess of Wales , had died in 1806 . Like the other two men his second wife so admired , Viscount Castlereagh and Wellington , Charles Arbuthnot was a member of the Anglo @-@ Irish aristocracy . He had been a member of parliament since 1795 , when he became the member for East Looe . At the time of his marriage to Fane , he was the member for St Germans . He had briefly interrupted his political career to become Ambassador Extraordinary to the Ottoman Empire between 1804 and 1807 . Marriage to such a pillar of the establishment as Charles Arbuthnot opened all doors to his young new wife , who , as one of the 14 children of a younger son of an aristocratic family possessed of no great fortune , would otherwise have been on the periphery of the highest society . However , as the debate and wrangling over her dowry proved , money was tight .

Although often referred to as a dream , the concept behind Imaginos is what Pearlman described as " an interpretation of history – an explanation for the onset of World War I , or a revelation of the occult origins of it " , which he crafted on elements of mythology , sociology , alchemy , science and occultism . This " combination of horror story and fairy tale " cites historical facts and characters , and is filled with literate references to ancient civilizations in a conspiracy theory of epic proportions , the subject of which is the manipulation of the course of human history .
