While he conceded that she may have `` a valid cultural point -- a teeny one -- about the impulses that drive us to reassuring pop trash and away from the troubling complexities of art '' , he rejected her claims that the series is lacking in serious literary merit and that it owes its success merely to the childhood reassurances it offers .

Harry Potter

By contrast , author Fay Weldon , while admitting that the series is `` not what the poets hoped for '' , nevertheless goes on to say , `` but this is not poetry , it is readable , saleable , everyday , useful prose '' . The literary critic A.N. Wilson praised the Harry Potter series in The Times , stating : `` There are not many writers who have JK 's Dickensian ability to make us turn the pages , to weep -- openly , with tears splashing -- and a few pages later to laugh , at invariably good jokes ... We have lived through a decade in which we have followed the publication of the liveliest , funniest , scariest and most moving children 's stories ever written '' . Charles Taylor of Salon.com , who is primarily a movie critic , took issue with Byatt 's criticisms in particular . While he conceded that she may have `` a valid cultural point -- a teeny one -- about the impulses that drive us to reassuring pop trash and away from the troubling complexities of art '' , he rejected her claims that the series is lacking in serious literary merit and that it owes its success merely to the childhood reassurances it offers . Taylor stressed the progressively darker tone of the books , shown by the murder of a classmate and close friend and the psychological wounds and social isolation each causes . Taylor also argued that Philosopher 's Stone , said to be the most light - hearted of the seven published books , disrupts the childhood reassurances that Byatt claims spur the series ' success : the book opens with news of a double murder , for example .

Air Jordan

The Air Jordan 1 was first produced for Michael Jordan in 1984 . It was designed by Peter C. Moore . The red and black colorway of the Nike Air Ship , the prototype for the Jordan 1 , was later outlawed by NBA Commissioner David Stern for having very little white on them . It is a common misconception that the Jordan 1 was banned however , it was indeed the Nike Air Ship . After the Nike Air Ship was banned , Michael Jordan and Nike introduced the Jordan 1 in color ways with more white such as the `` Chicago '' color way and the `` Black Toe '' color way . They used the Nike Air Ship 's banning as a promotional tool in advertisements hinting that the shoes gave an unfair competitive advantage for the Jordan 1 and that whoever wore them had a certain edginess associated with outlaw activities .

If the warm air mass is unstable , thunderstorms may be embedded among the stratiform clouds ahead of the front , and after frontal passage thundershowers may continue .

Warm front

A warm front is a density discontinuity located at the leading edge of a homogeneous warm air mass , and is typically located on the equator - facing edge of an isotherm gradient . Warm fronts lie within broader troughs of low pressure than cold fronts , and move more slowly than the cold fronts which usually follow because cold air is denser and less easy to remove from the Earth 's surface . This also forces temperature differences across warm fronts to be broader in scale . Clouds ahead of the warm front are mostly stratiform , and rainfall gradually increases as the front approaches . Fog can also occur preceding a warm frontal passage . Clearing and warming is usually rapid after frontal passage . If the warm air mass is unstable , thunderstorms may be embedded among the stratiform clouds ahead of the front , and after frontal passage thundershowers may continue . On weather maps , the surface location of a warm front is marked with a red line of semicircles pointing in the direction of travel .

Epic of Gilgamesh

The Epic of Gilgamesh is an epic poem from ancient Mesopotamia that is often regarded as the earliest surviving great work of literature . The literary history of Gilgamesh begins with five Sumerian poems about Bilgamesh ( Sumerian for `` Gilgamesh '' ) , king of Uruk , dating from the Third Dynasty of Ur ( c. 2100 BC ) . These independent stories were later used as source material for a combined epic . The first surviving version of this combined epic , known as the `` Old Babylonian '' version , dates to the 18th century BC and is titled after its incipit , Shūtur eli sharrī ( `` Surpassing All Other Kings '' ) . Only a few tablets of it have survived . The later `` standard '' version dates from the 13th to the 10th centuries BC and bears the incipit Sha naqba īmuru ( `` He who Saw the Deep '' , in modern terms : `` He who Sees the Unknown '' ) . Approximately two thirds of this longer , twelve - tablet version have been recovered . Some of the best copies were discovered in the library ruins of the 7th - century BC Assyrian king Ashurbanipal .

'' Robbie Collin of The Telegraph gave the film four stars out of five , and deemed it `` a sincere and full - hearted adaptation that returns to Kipling for fresh inspiration . '' Alonso Duralde of The Wrap says `` This ' Book ' might lack the post-vaudeville razzamatazz of its predecessor , but director Jon Favreau and a team of effects wizards plunge us into one of the big screen 's most engrossing artificial worlds since Avatar .

He wrote that the film was `` spectacular , exciting , funny and fun '' and that it `` handsomely revives the spirit of Disney 's original film .

He particularly praised Murray 's performance and the visual effects , deeming it `` simply astonishing . '' Chris Nashawaty of Entertainment Weekly graded the film an `` A -- , '' calling it one of the biggest surprises of 2016 . He , however , felt the two songs were rather unnecessary and distracting , and believed the film to be a little too frightening for children .

Karikala Chola ( c. 90 BCE ) stands pre-eminent amongst all those mentioned in Pattinappaalai .

Early Cholas

Karikala Chola ( c. 90 BCE ) stands pre-eminent amongst all those mentioned in Pattinappaalai . Karikala 's father was Ilamcetcenni , a brave king and a hard fighter . ' Karikala ' means ' elephant feller ' or ' charred leg ' , which is assumed to be a reference to an accident by fire which befell the prince early in his life . Pattinappaalai describes this accident and the enterprising way in which the prince escaped and established himself in the Chola throne . Pattinappalai is a long poem on the then Chola capital Kaveripattinam . This work also describes the numerous battles Karikala fought against the other two Tamil kings in one of which the Chera king was disgraced ( received a wound on his back ) and committed suicide . Karikala thus broke the confederacy that was formed against him and established hegemony over Pandyas and Cheras .

Despite this , the IAF was able to prevent the PAF from gaining air superiority over conflict zones .

Indian Air Force

Three years after the Sino - Indian conflict , in 1965 , Pakistan launched Operation Gibraltar , strategy of Pakistan to infiltrate Jammu and Kashmir , and start a rebellion against Indian rule . This came to be known as the Second Kashmir War . This was the first time the IAF actively engaged an enemy air force . However , instead of providing close air support to the Indian Army , the IAF carried out independent raids against PAF bases . These bases were situated deep inside Pakistani territory , making IAF fighters vulnerable to anti-aircraft fire . During the course of the conflict , the PAF enjoyed technological superiority over the IAF and had achieved substantial strategic and tactical advantage due to their sudden attack and whole hearted diplomatic and military support from the US and Britain . The IAF was restrained by the government from retaliating to PAF attacks in the eastern sector while a substantive part of its combat force was deployed there and could not be transferred to the western sector , against the possibility of Chinese intervention . Moreover , international ( UN ) stipulations and norms did not permit military force to be introduced into the Indian state of J&K beyond what was agreed during the 1949 ceasefire . Despite this , the IAF was able to prevent the PAF from gaining air superiority over conflict zones . The small and nimble IAF Folland Gnats proved effective against the F - 86 Sabres of the PAF earning it the nickname `` Sabre Slayers '' . By the time the conflict had ended , the IAF lost 60 -- 70 aircraft , while the PAF lost 43 aircraft . More than 60 % of IAF 's aircraft losses took place in Ground Attack missions to enemy ground - fire , since fighter - bomber aircraft would carry out repeated dive attacks on the same target . According to , Air Chief Marshal Arjan Singh of the Indian Air Force , despite having been qualitatively inferior , IAF achieved air superiority in three days in the 1965 War

They discovered the Turkish battery in the Lone Pine sector , which was preparing to move .

Landing at Anzac Cove

After landing , some of the 9th and 10th Battalion 's men headed for 400 Plateau . The first 10th Battalion platoon to arrive was commanded by Lieutenant Noel Loutit , and accompanied by the Brigade - Major , Charles Brand . They discovered the Turkish battery in the Lone Pine sector , which was preparing to move . As the Australians opened fire the battery withdrew down Owen 's Gully . Brand remained on the plateau and ordered Loutit to continue after the Turkish battery . However , the guns had been hidden at the head of the gully and Loutit 's platoon moved beyond them . Around the same time , Lieutenant Eric Smith and his 10th Battalion scouts and Lieutenant G. Thomas with his platoon from the 9th Battalion arrived on the plateau , looking for the guns . As they crossed the plateau Turkish machine - guns opened fire on them from the Lone Pine area . One of Thomas 's sections located the battery , which had started firing from the gully . They opened fire , charged the gun crews , and captured the guns . The Turks did manage to remove the breech blocks , making the guns inoperable , so the Australians damaged the sights and internal screw mechanisms to put them out of action . By now the majority of the 9th and 10th Battalions , along with brigade commander Maclagen , had arrived on the plateau , and he ordered them to dig in on the plateau instead of advancing to Gun Ridge . Unfortunately the units that had already passed beyond there were obeying their orders to `` go as fast as you can , at all costs keep going '' .

In April 2010 , it was announced that Rachel Weisz would star in the titular role , with Darren Aronofsky set to direct and produce the film , from Oppenheim 's script . However , both Weisz and Aronofsky dropped out after they ended their romantic relationship . The same year , Steven Spielberg showed interest in helming the film . Then in September 2012 , without a director , Fox Searchlight Pictures started courting Natalie Portman to star in the film as Jacqueline `` Jackie '' Kennedy , hoping that her participation would bring back Aronofsky , although Portman 's involvement was contingent on which director signed on . At the 65th Berlin International Film Festival in February 2015 , Pablo Larraín was approached by Aronofsky to direct the film , after he was impressed by the former 's The Club . Larraín was skeptical , and asked Aronofsky why he wanted a Chilean man who was not fond of biopics to helm the film . In May 2015 , Portman was confirmed to star in the film . That same month , Larraín was hired to direct the film , with Aronofsky working as a producer . By the 2015 Cannes Film Festival , the film was officially a go . The rest of the cast -- led by Greta Gerwig and Peter Sarsgaard -- were announced between May and October of the same year .

As young adults , Barney and Fred worked as bellhops at a resort , where they first met Wilma and Betty , who were working as cigarette girls .

Barney Rubble

While the mid-1980s spinoff series The Flintstone Kids depicts Barney as a child , the series seems to be mostly apocryphal due to its presenting Barney as a childhood friend of Wilma and Betty ( versus the original series ' assertion that they first met as young adults ) . Still , the series ' assertions that Barney has at least one younger brother , Dusty , was a childhood friend of Fred , and was the son of artist Flo Rubble and car dealer Robert `` Honest Bob '' Rubble might be taken as valid . It is suggested in the original series that Barney grew up at 142 Boulder Avenue in Granitetown . The original series also suggested in one episode that Barney was the nephew of Fred 's boss , Mr. Slate , though subsequent episodes and spinoffs do not seem to support this claim . As young adults , Barney and Fred worked as bellhops at a resort , where they first met Wilma and Betty , who were working as cigarette girls . Eventually , Barney married Betty ( as Fred did Wilma ) .

Both HSV - 1 ( which produces most cold sores ) and HSV - 2 ( which produces most genital herpes ) are ubiquitous and contagious .

Herpes simplex virus

Herpes simplex virus 1 and 2 ( HSV - 1 and HSV - 2 ) , also known as human herpesvirus 1 and 2 ( HHV - 1 and HHV - 2 ) , are two members of the herpesvirus family , Herpesviridae , that infect humans . Both HSV - 1 ( which produces most cold sores ) and HSV - 2 ( which produces most genital herpes ) are ubiquitous and contagious . They can be spread when an infected person is producing and shedding the virus .

The five classical signs of inflammation are heat , pain , redness , swelling , and loss of function ( Latin calor , dolor , rubor , tumor , and functio laesa ) .

Inflammation

The five classical signs of inflammation are heat , pain , redness , swelling , and loss of function ( Latin calor , dolor , rubor , tumor , and functio laesa ) . Inflammation is a generic response , and therefore it is considered as a mechanism of innate immunity , as compared to adaptive immunity , which is specific for each pathogen . Too little inflammation could lead to progressive tissue destruction by the harmful stimulus ( e.g. bacteria ) and compromise the survival of the organism . In contrast , chronic inflammation may lead to a host of diseases , such as hay fever , periodontitis , atherosclerosis , rheumatoid arthritis , and even cancer ( e.g. , gallbladder carcinoma ) . Inflammation is therefore normally closely regulated by the body .

The enzyme is present at high levels in the liver and the lining of the stomach .

Alcohol dehydrogenase

In humans , ADH exists in multiple forms as a dimer and is encoded by at least seven different genes . There are five classes ( I-V ) of alcohol dehydrogenase , but the hepatic form that is used primarily in humans is class 1 . Class 1 consists of α , β , and γ subunits that are encoded by the genes ADH1A , ADH1B , and ADH1C . The enzyme is present at high levels in the liver and the lining of the stomach . It catalyzes the oxidation of ethanol to acetaldehyde ( ethanal ) :

Language processing in the brain

Much of the language function is processed in several association areas , and there are two well - identified areas that are considered vital for human communication : Wernicke 's area and Broca 's area . These areas are usually located in the dominant hemisphere ( the left hemisphere in 97 % of people ) and are considered the most important areas for language processing . This is why language is considered a localized and lateralized function .

Such as in The Wind Waker , Link must find all the pieces ( called Triforce Shards ) of the Triforce of Courage before he can return to Hyrule .

The Legend of Zelda

In Skyward Sword , the Triforce was sought by a demon king named Demise , and after a long battle , Demise was sealed away within the Temple of the goddess Hylia , guardian of the Triforce . Hylia , placing the Hylians on a floating island ( called Skyloft ) in the sky to protect them , orchestrated a means to stop the demon from escaping : creating the Goddess Sword ( later becoming the Master Sword ) for her chosen hero and discarding her divinity to be reborn among the people of Skyloft . In time , Zelda and Link ( the reborn Hylia and her predestined warrior ) , enacted the goddess ' plan and Demise was destroyed . However , Demise vowed that his rage would be reborn and forever plague those descended from Link and Zelda . That prophecy came to fruition in Ocarina of Time , when Ganondorf 's attempt to get the Triforce scattered it with him gaining the Triforce of Power . The Triforce of Wisdom ended up with the Hylian princesses descended from Zelda , each named after her , while the Triforce of Courage is passed to a youth named Link across generations . While the Triforces of Power and Wisdom have been part of the series since the original The Legend of Zelda , it was only in Zelda II : The Adventure of Link that the Triforce of Courage was first introduced , being obtained by Link at the end of his quest . The Triforce , or even a piece of it , is not always distributed as a whole . Such as in The Wind Waker , Link must find all the pieces ( called Triforce Shards ) of the Triforce of Courage before he can return to Hyrule . Even in the original The Legend of Zelda , Zelda breaks her Triforce of Wisdom into 8 pieces for Link to find , before she was captured by Ganon .

The park , a partnership between Diller and von Furstenberg 's foundation , the city and state , and Hudson River Park Trust , was to float completely above the water , resting on 300 concrete pillars .

Chelsea Piers

Plans arose in November 2014 for a new park designed by Heatherwick Studio , with estimates of the 2.3 - acre ( 0.93 ha ) park between $130 million and $160 million . Major backers included Barry Diller and Diane von Fürstenberg 's joint foundation , which contributed $100 million to the project with plans to give up to $130 million . The city and state vowed to give $17 million and $18 million , respectively . The park , a partnership between Diller and von Furstenberg 's foundation , the city and state , and Hudson River Park Trust , was to float completely above the water , resting on 300 concrete pillars . If the project were approved , construction was to begin in 2015 and end in 2018 or 2019 . The project was provisionally known as Pier 55 , and was to be built between the sites of Pier 54 and 56 . Plans for the pier were scrapped in 2017 due to legal trouble and cost overruns , as the budget had gone over $200 million by then . In October 2017 , the proposal was revived in exchange for Governor Andrew Cuomo agreeing to complete the remaining 30 % of the incomplete Hudson River Park .

After Winters ' punishment was set aside by the battalion commander , Major Robert L. Strayer , Sobel brought Winters up on another charge the following day .

Richard Winters

In November and December 1943 , while Easy Company was at Aldbourne , the tension that had been brewing between Winters and Sobel came to a head . For some time , Winters had privately held concerns over Sobel 's ability to lead the company in combat . Many of the enlisted men in the company had come to respect Winters for his competence and had also developed their own concerns about Sobel 's leadership . Winters later said that he never wanted to compete with Sobel for command of Easy Company ; still , Sobel attempted to bring Winters up on trumped - up charges for `` failure to carry out a lawful order '' . Feeling that his punishment was unjust and sensing Sobel 's tacticality of the matter , Winters requested that the charge be reviewed by court - martial . After Winters ' punishment was set aside by the battalion commander , Major Robert L. Strayer , Sobel brought Winters up on another charge the following day . During the investigation , Winters was transferred to the Headquarters Company and appointed as the battalion mess officer .

Shinkansen

The Tōkaidō Shinkansen began service on 1 October 1964 , in time for the first Tokyo Olympics . The conventional Limited Express service took six hours and 40 minutes from Tokyo to Osaka , but the Shinkansen made the trip in just four hours , shortened to three hours and ten minutes by 1965 . It enabled day trips between Tokyo and Osaka , the two largest metropolises in Japan , changed the style of business and life of the Japanese people significantly , and increased new traffic demand . The service was an immediate success , reaching the 100 million passenger mark in less than three years on 13 July 1967 , and one billion passengers in 1976 . Sixteen - car trains were introduced for Expo ' 70 in Osaka . With an average of 23,000 passengers per hour in each direction in 1992 , the Tōkaidō Shinkansen is the world 's busiest high - speed rail line .

Coronary arteries supply blood to the myocardium and other components of the heart .

Coronary circulation

Coronary arteries supply blood to the myocardium and other components of the heart . Two coronary arteries originate from the left side of the heart at the beginning ( root ) of the aorta , just after the aorta exits the left ventricle . There are three aortic sinuses ( dilations ) in the wall of the aorta just superior to the aortic semilunar valve . Two of these , the left posterior aortic sinus and anterior aortic sinus , give rise to the left and right coronary arteries , respectively . The third sinus , the right posterior aortic sinus , typically does not give rise to a vessel . Coronary vessel branches that remain on the surface of the artery and follow the sulci of the heart are called epicardial coronary arteries .

There is a critical value of transformer coupling coefficient at which the frequency response of the amplifier is maximally flat in the passband and the gain is maximum at the resonant frequency .

Double-tuned amplifier

There is a critical value of transformer coupling coefficient at which the frequency response of the amplifier is maximally flat in the passband and the gain is maximum at the resonant frequency . Designs frequently use a coupling greater than this ( over-coupling ) in order to achieve an even wider bandwidth at the expense of a small loss of gain in the centre of the passband .

Remora

Remora front dorsal fins have evolved to enable them to adhere by suction to smooth surfaces and they spend their lives clinging to a host animal such as a whale , turtle , shark or ray . It is probably a mutualistic arrangement as the remora can move around on the host , removing ectoparasites and loose flakes of skin , while benefiting from the protection provided by the host , and the constant flow of water across its gills . Although it was initially believed that remoras fed off particulate matter from the host 's meals , this has been shown a falsehood ; in reality their diets are composed primarily of host feces instead .

Because the specificity constant reflects both affinity and catalytic ability , it is useful for comparing different enzymes against each other , or the same enzyme with different substrates .

Enzyme

The efficiency of an enzyme can be expressed in terms of k / K . This is also called the specificity constant and incorporates the rate constants for all steps in the reaction up to and including the first irreversible step . Because the specificity constant reflects both affinity and catalytic ability , it is useful for comparing different enzymes against each other , or the same enzyme with different substrates . The theoretical maximum for the specificity constant is called the diffusion limit and is about 10 to 10 ( M s ) . At this point every collision of the enzyme with its substrate will result in catalysis , and the rate of product formation is not limited by the reaction rate but by the diffusion rate . Enzymes with this property are called catalytically perfect or kinetically perfect . Example of such enzymes are triose - phosphate isomerase , carbonic anhydrase , acetylcholinesterase , catalase , fumarase , β - lactamase , and superoxide dismutase . The turnover of such enzymes can reach several million reactions per second . But most enzymes are far from perfect : the average values of k c a t / K m ( \ displaystyle k_ ( \ rm ( cat ) ) / K_ ( \ rm ( m ) ) ) and k c a t ( \ displaystyle k_ ( \ rm ( cat ) ) ) are about 10 5 s − 1 M − 1 ( \ displaystyle 10 ^ ( 5 ) ( \ rm ( s ) ) ^ ( - 1 ) ( \ rm ( M ) ) ^ ( - 1 ) ) and 10 s − 1 ( \ displaystyle 10 ( \ rm ( s ) ) ^ ( - 1 ) ) , respectively .

Christian monasticism

Within the Eastern Orthodox Church , there exist three types of monasticism : eremitic , cenobitic , and the skete . The skete is a very small community , often of two or three ( Matthew 18 : 20 ) , under the direction of an Elder . They pray privately for most of the week , then come together on Sundays and Feast Days for communal prayer , thus combining aspects of both eremitic and coenobitic monasticism .

Constructed by the German Democratic Republic ( GDR , East Germany ) , starting on 13 August 1961 , the Wall completely cut off ( by land ) West Berlin from surrounding East Germany and from East Berlin until government officials opened it in November 1989 .

Berlin Wall

The Berlin Wall ( German : Berliner Mauer ) was a guarded concrete barrier that physically and ideologically divided Berlin from 1961 to 1989 . Constructed by the German Democratic Republic ( GDR , East Germany ) , starting on 13 August 1961 , the Wall completely cut off ( by land ) West Berlin from surrounding East Germany and from East Berlin until government officials opened it in November 1989 . Its demolition officially began on 13 June 1990 and finished in 1992 . The barrier included guard towers placed along large concrete walls , accompanied by a wide area ( later known as the `` death strip '' ) that contained anti-vehicle trenches , `` fakir beds '' and other defenses . The Eastern Bloc portrayed the Wall as protecting its population from fascist elements conspiring to prevent the `` will of the people '' in building a socialist state in East Germany . In practice , the Wall served to prevent the massive emigration and defection that had marked East Germany and the communist Eastern Bloc during the post-World War II period .
