Late Old Japanese

Late Old Japanese (Zhong Gu Ri Ben Yu ) is an old form of the Japanese language. It was used in the time known as the Heian Period, between 794 and 1185. The form of Japanese that was used before that is called Old Japanese.
Old Japanese was the first form of the Japanese language. The script (the way it was written) came from the Chinese script. This was all based on characters which were like little pictures (called kanji today, e.g. Zhong Gu Ri Ben Yu ). During the Late Old period two new scripts were invented: Hiragana and Katakana. These were much simpler and described the sound of the syllables. It made reading and writing much easier. Famous books were written during this period such as The Tale of Genji, The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter, The Tales of Ise and many others.
Many changes took place to the way the language was pronounced during this period. Consonants that had been spoken through the nose became voiced, some long vowels were added, some consonants slid into one another. The syllables became simpler: instead of 88 there were only 66. Instead of two types of -i, -e, and -o there were only one. Some verbs ended in a consonant, others in a vowel. The changes in grammar included different ways that adjectives could be declined.

Shanghai Fugu Agreement

The Shanghai Fugu Agreement was a successful political prank which was landed on the Social Democrats in the German state of Hesse in 1985.
In 1985 the new Green Party prepared to enter into a German state government for the first time in its history. The first green cabinet minister in German history was going to be Joschka Fischer who later became minister of Foreign Affairs in the German Federal Government under chancellor Gerhard Schroeder. The 1985 Hesse coalition was to be based on an official policy agreement negotiated by both parties.
During a final night session of the negotiations the Greens tabled a demand that Hesse join the "Shanghai Fugu Agreement". This was accepted by their tired Social Democratic counterparts and became official state policy.
The Greens argued that the fugu fish is well known to be a dangerous delicacy requiring specialised chefs who mostly come from Asia. Due to expanding restrictions on work permits restaurants have found it difficult to employ such specialists. The "Shanghai Fugu Agreement" provides special regulations for certified fugu chefs internationally.
The agreement was absolutely fictional but was neither discovered to be a joke by the Social Democrats during the nightly negotiations nor later by civil servants or the press who went through the coalition contracts. It took years to be discovered as the joke it was.

Insolvency

Insolvency means that a person or organisation does not have enough money to pay all of the people who they owe money. Different countries have different definitions of exactly what insolvency means, but usually it means either that:
a person cannot pay their debts as they fall due (which is sometimes called cash flow insolvency); or
the total amount of a person's liabilities is larger than the total amount of their assets (which is called balance sheet insolvency'').
When a person or a business is insolvent, then people whom they owe money to may apply to court to put then into bankruptcy.
Insolvency and bankruptcy
People often confuse the terms bankruptcy and insolvency, and sometimes they use one word when they really mean the other. Insolvency usually just means that a someone does not have enough money to pay their debts or (sometimes) that the total amount of their debts is worth more than the total amount of their assets. Bankruptcy is a formal legal process in front of the courts. Although the two terms are connected, just because a person is insolvent does not necessarily mean that they will go into bankruptcy.
Consequences of insolvency
Apart from being put into bankruptcy there are other risks to being insolvent. Many countries have laws to protect the public which means that the directors of a company who continue to trade whilst the company is insolvent may have to pay compensation to creditors, and in some cases may even be convicted of a crime.

Cod Wars

The Cod Wars, also called the Iceland Cod Wars (Icelandic: Thorskastridin, "the cod wars", or Landhelgisstridin, "the wars for the territorial waters") were a series of confrontations in the 1950s and 1970s between the United Kingdom and Iceland regarding fishing rights in the North Atlantic. The name of the conflict may be derived from a pun on the term "Cold War" (with "cod" reading so similarly to "cold"), possibly via the British tabloid press.
In 1972, Iceland unilaterally declared an Exclusive Economic Zone extending beyond its territorial waters, before announcing plans to reduce over-fishing. It policed its quota system with the coast guard, leading to a series of net-cutting incidents with British trawlers that fished the areas. As a result, a fleet of British Royal Naval warships and tug-boats was employed to act as a deterrent against any future harassment of British fishing crews by the Icelandic craft.
In 1976, a compromise between the two states allowed a maximum of 24 British trawlers access to the disputed 200 nautical mile (370 km) limit. Two-hundred-nautical-mile Exclusive Economic Zones became recognized internationally on November 14, 1994, after having been agreed at the conference on the Third United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) in 1982.

Rotting Christ

Rotting Christ is a Greek black metal band. It was formed in 1987. They are known for being one of the first black metal bands from Greece. They are popular in the European underground metal community. Rotting Christ is also known for making black metal sound different in the early 1990s.
Name problems
Rotting Christ has had many problems because of the name of their band. In 1999, Gary Bauer (a candidate to run for president in the United States) said the band was "anti-Catholic" because of their name. Sakis Tolis, the singer for the band, said that "everyone should have the right to call religions as he/she wants", and Rotting Christ is just "one of the many bands that represent the dark side in metal music".
The name has also made the band cancel concerts. In 2005, the singer and guitarist for Megadeth, Dave Mustaine, said he would not play at a Greek concert if Rotting Christ was also playing.
In April 2018, Rotting Christ was arrested in Georgia. This was because the government thought they were terrorists because of the band's name. They were let go later, and were able to play at the concert they had in Georgia.

Costa Rica brook frog

The Costa Rica brook frog or red-eyed stream frog (Duellmanohyla uranochroa) is a frog. It lives in Costa Rica and Panama. Scientists have seen it between 70 and 1740 meters above sea level.
The skin of the frog's back is green in color. The belly and neck are bright yellow. The parts of the legs that face the ground are yellow but less bright. There is a yellow-white stripe from the mouth to the place where the legs meet the body, one on each side. The iris of the eye is bright red. The female frog is bigger than the male frog, and she has bigger eardrums.
This frog moves at night. They go to mountain streams to look for food. During the day, they sit in bromeliad plants. The frogs lay eggs in May and June. The frog's voice sounds like "boop boop boop boop," but different frogs and frogs in different places can sound different. The female frog lays eggs in pools of water with silt on the bottom instead of sand or mud.
Threats
This frog is in danger of dying out. This is because human beings change the places where it lives. Sometimes even small changes can hurt this frog. Climate change and ultraviolet light can also kill this frog.

Electrical generator

A generator usually means a machine that makes electrical energy. It has a generator head with wires, spinning inside a magnetic field. The resulting electromagnetic induction makes electricity flow through the wires. Hybrid electric vehicles carry a generator powerful enough to make them go. The biggest generators don't go anywhere; they stay in power stations.
Different things can be used to make the generator head spin. Some small ones are cranked by someone's arms or legs. Bigger ones are connected to an engine. The biggest ones use a steam turbine or hydroelectric water power. Some use wind power. Whatever makes it turn, the generator converts this energy into electrical energy.
Some portable generators have an internal combustion engine. They are harmful when used indoors because they make carbon monoxide.
Components
Simple generators have:
a rotor, which is the moving part of the generator
an axle
a magnet
brushes
Some kinds have:
a commutator, which is a switch that reverses the current
a power supply to start the generator

The then current US president Barack Obama won the primary against Tennessee attorney and candidate who had a record of losing John Wolfe Jr, who got nearly 42% of the vote, which many people didn't think would happen. All 47 voters to decide the winner of the primary were given to, and said they would vote for Barack Obama at the 2012 Democratic National Convention. While John Wolfe Jr. was allowed 19 delegates to the convention because of how he had done in Arkansas, state party officials said Wolfe missed two paperwork filing deadlines related to the voters for the convention process, therefore he was not allowed to be given them. Wolfe started legal proceedings to have voters in the primary in his name allowed. Eight other delegates who didn't announce who they'd vote for, known as superdelegates, also attended the convention and cast their votes as well.

All About Lily Chou-Chou

All About Lily Chou-Chou is a Japanese movie made in 2001. The theme of this movie is Ijime(bullying). With this material, Shunji Iwai, the director, tried to describe teenagers' sensibility and anguishes. In the movie, there is violence, bullying, rapes, suicide, murder, sympathy, confusion, and music. The entire mood is dark. Although Iwai chose this movie as his best for now and his style is well reflected, it can be hard for audiences to truly sympathize with the movie because it is lacking consideration of general audiences.
The plot
In the movie, a boy named Yuichi Hasumi loves Lily Chou-Chou's songs. Lily Chou-Chou is an imaginary singer who plays an odd music in this movie, and her fans communicate with each other through internet site named 'Lily-holic.' Another fan of Lily Chou-Chou, Shusuke Hoshino, once a friend of Yuichi, was a quiet and sincere student. However, during a trip to Okiwana, he experienced some traumatic accidents related to death and his characteristics completely changes. He starts to torment other students including Yuichi. Yuichi wants to stop him but he doesn't know how to do so and he cannot help assisting Hoshino's misdeeds. The only solace Yuichi can find is Lily Chou-Chou's songs.

Pelorosaurus

Pelorosaurus conybeari is the name given to a few sauropod dinosaur bones from the Lower Cretaceous period, about 138-112 million years ago.
Bones of Pelorosaurus have been found in England and Portugal. It was a Brachiosaur, with front legs that were longer than its hind legs.
The name has been challenged, and has been the subject of long-lasting dispute. Some palaeontologists prefer the name Cetiosaurus brevis.
The taxonomic status of Pelorosaurus is as a result very problematic. Technically, Cetiosaurus brevis is its type species. The position of Pelorosaurus is further undermined by the fact that several researchers hold that the genus is a nomen dubium ('doubtful name').
Pelorosaurus was one of the first dinosaurs described, and the naming procedures were not so well-developed at the time. Its life-style is assumed to be similar to other brachiosaurs, eating from the higher branches of tall conifer trees.
