MIT 's inability to secure a more stable financial footing during this era can largely be attributed to the existence of the Lawrence Scientific School at Harvard . Given the choice between funding technological research at the oldest university in the nation , or at an independent and adolescent institution , potential benefactors were indifferent or even hostile to funding MIT 's competing mission . Earlier overtures from Harvard President Charles William Eliot towards consolidation of the two schools were rejected or disrupted by Rogers in 1870 and 1878 . Despite his tenure at the analogous Sheffield School of Yale University , Walker remained committed to MIT 's independence from a larger institution . Walker also repeatedly received overtures from Leland Stanford to become the first president of his new university in Palo Alto , California , but Walker remained committed to MIT owing to his Boston upbringing .

In 2004 the government went before Moskowitz seeking summary judgement . The case turned on whether the KD II was a fishing vessel under the SFPA . Early in 2005 he issued his ruling , holding that while it was not directly engaged in fishing it was nevertheless engaging in activities supporting fishing and thus also subject to the SFPA . He did not grant the forfeiture as NOAA had not moved for it yet .
Drummer Mick Avory has offered an alternate explanation for the song 's lyrics , claiming that " Lola " was partially inspired by Avory 's frequenting of transgender bars in west London . Avory said , " We used to know this character called Michael McGrath . He used to hound the group a bit , because being called The Kinks did attract these sorts of people . He used to come down to Top of the Pops , and he was publicist for John Stephen 's shop in Carnaby Street . He used to have this place in Earl 's Court , and he used to invite me to all these drag queen acts and transsexual pubs . They were like secret clubs . And that 's where Ray [ Davies ] got the idea for ' Lola . ' When he was invited too , he wrote it while I was getting drunk . "

The Toronto Star described the Codeine 's music as slowcore , a style AllMusic stated was famous for having a slow pace and skeletal music with " melodies linger forever and rhythms lurch forward , all shrouded in thick , dank atmospherics . " Stewart Mason of AllMusic described the music of Barely Real as a continuation of the style made on their previous album " , while comparing a review of the compilation album When I See The Sun in Exclaim ! proposed that the group 's music " didn 't change much during their five years together ― all the songs are relentlessly slow and possess an emotional detachment verging on apathy . " When asked about the music 's pace , on Barely Real , Immerwahr said the music was in contrast to grunge music of the era , and that slowing it down made it " challenging for people and challenging for audiences . And I actually kind of like that . " In a contemporary review , Ned Raggett of AllMusic stated this style is exemplified on songs like " Realize " , which continued the hybrid of a deliberate pace with electric guitar playing with softly sung vocals . Some tracks contained a variation on Codeine 's music , such as " Promise of Love " , which Raggett characterized as having a " late @-@ night jazz club style " that only contains more traditional Codeine styled music towards the end . Other songs that veried the sound included the piano @-@ based track " W. " performed by David Grubbs and quick stuttering guitar riff on " Jr " . Immerwhar spoke about the tracks " W. " and " Promise of Love " , opining that " W. " created a " nice transition from the severity of ' Hard to Find ' to the jazzy ' Promise of Love ' "

Increasing professional obligations after the birth of his first son in 1987 coincided with a reduction in his literary output . During the 1990s he instead focused his attention on his novel Feuers Geraun . Two early versions of this novel 's chapters were published by the Upper Austrian magazine die Rampe in 1994 ( Der Schreiber von Aram ) and 1997 ( Das Gesetz ) . These chapters deal with Jewish and biblical traditions . The publishing list on Ebner 's website lists only six publications in anthologies by 2004 , but seventeen are listed from between 2005 and 2008 .

Presently , the pan @-@ Germanist wing is only a minor faction within the Freedom Party . In 2008 , fewer than seventeen percent of the Freedom Party 's voters questioned the existence of a unique Austrian national identity . German nationalists , including Andreas Mölzer and Martin Graf , now refer to themselves as " cultural Germans " ( Kulturdeutsche ) , and stress the importance of their identity as ethnic Germans , in contrast to the distinct Austrian national identity . In 2006 , FPÖ members of parliament reaffirmed the party 's root in the pan @-@ Germanist tradition , at least symbolically , by wearing blue cornflowers in their buttonholes , along with ribbons in Austria 's national colours ( red and white ) , during the initial meeting of the National Council . This caused controversy , as the media interpreted the flower as a former Nazi symbol .

The population of the parish changed little from the start of the 19th century until the 1970s , remaining at around 3 @,@ 000 ( see chart ) . However it increased rapidly in the last part of the 20th century and the start of the 21st . Cullompton 's population growth looks set to continue as Mid Devon 's core strategy foresees 95 new dwellings being built per year in the period to 2026 . In 1660 the population of the town ( only including the urban parts of the parish ) has been estimated at 1 @,@ 800 , which made it the 10th largest town in Devon and Cornwall . The town 's population grew to 2 @,@ 750 by 1750 ( meaning it was the 8th largest town ) but it then fell rapidly so that it was only 2 @,@ 275 by 1805 - only the 23rd largest town in Devon and Cornwall . This fall in population , in a period when many other towns grew rapidly , was probably due to the decline in the importance of the cloth trade in this period .
Thus , the Florence Cathedral is the repository of all the extant works of Uccello whose attribution is firmly rooted in contemporary documents : two murals — the Hawkwood and the Clock Face with Four Heads of Prophets or Evangelists ( 1443 ) — and two stained glass windows — Resurrection ( 1443 – 1444 ) and Nativity ( 1443 – 1444 ) . The Hawkwood is Uccello 's " earliest dated and fully authenticated extant work " .
The newspaper Bengalee remarked : " People flock to the Sessions Court as they would flock to the Lewis Theatre to watch Othello being performed " . The courtroom drama became a public spectacle . Authorities had to charge an entrance fee to control the crowds at the Hoogly Sessions Court .

The private sector has also played a large role in revitalizing the area , even without public aid and incentives . Developers have been attracted to the historic buildings and their surrounding neighborhoods , calling it the city 's strongest asset , although they have complained about past stalemates in city government . One initiative has often led to others . River Street 's development into a center for antique stores came about without any public effort or intent , and the restoration of the music hall at the Savings Bank led to many new restaurants opening in the neighborhood . The blocks of River Street north of Monument Square have a dozen woman @-@ owned businesses .
What is known about Gelou comes from the Gesta Hungarorum ( The Deeds of the Hungarians ) , the earliest surviving Hungarian chronicle .

It is said that the MacIntyre chief at the time of the Jacobite rising of 1745 , James ( born c . 1727 ) , would have joined the clans rallying to Prince Charles Edward Stuart but was dissuaded from doing so by his wife , who was a Campbell , and his neighbors . His loyalties to the Campbells were further deepened by the fact that his legal studies had been sponsored by the Campbell Earl of Breadalbane . Nonetheless , many MacIntyres were in the clan regiment of Stewart of Appin in the campaign of 1745 – 46 , but they did not serve as an independent body .
A few Japanese trading companies established businesses at Chuuk and Pohnpei in the 1890s , and Koben Mori acted as its resident agent , helping to facilitate trade with the islanders . The early Japanese businessmen traded on alcoholic products , explosives and Chinaware . Contraband products like alcohol and weapons were also illegally traded , and the Spanish administration made futile attempts to suppress these activities . The Japanese traders were expelled from Chuuk and Pohnpei in 1900 when the Germans purchased the islands from Spain , but Japanese traders returned to Chuuk in 1907 and set up a trading firm dealing with copra production . After the Japanese annexed Micronesia from Germany in 1914 , they gained a monopoly over the shipping routes in all of the mandated islands . The rate of copra production reached twelve thousand tons per year by the 1920s , and had an export value of two million yen . In the late 1920s , an Okinawan fisherman , Tamashiro established a tuna production factory at Wonei . The Japanese government provided incentives for fishermen to open new fishery production factories , and in 1937 there were at least 1500 Okinawans and Japanese who were employed in the fishery industry . Japanese settlers introduced commercial agriculture in Pohnpei and to a smaller extent in Chuuk and Yap . A few Japanese businessmen also set up firms to oversee the plantation of cash crops , including copra , rice and pineapples . They constituted the main exports in the central and eastern Carolines .

Castillo Armas was given enough money to recruit a small force of approximately 150 mercenaries from among Guatemalan exiles and the populations of nearby countries . This band was called the " Army of Liberation . " The CIA established training camps in Nicaragua and Honduras , and supplied them with weapons as well as several bombers . Prior to the invasion of Guatemala the U.S. signed military agreements with both those countries , allowing it to move heavier arms freely . These preparations were only superficially covert : the CIA intended Árbenz to find out about them , as a part of its plan to convince the Guatemalan people that the overthrow of Árbenz was a fait accompli . Additionally , the CIA made covert contact with a number of church leaders throughout the Guatemalan countryside , and persuaded them to incorporate anti @-@ government messages into their sermons .
