The Western Front was started by the German Army invading Luxembourg and Belgium at the beginning of World War I in 1914 and gaining military control of many important industrial regions in France.
Its quick advance was stopped by the Battle of the Marne.
Both sides then dug defensive trenches, which eventually reached from the North Sea to the Swiss border with France.
From 1915 to 1917, many offensives were started from the trenches.
Both sides used large numbers of artillery and thousands of infantry in the offensives.
However, a combination of entrenchments, machine gun nests, barbed wire, and artillery stopped the advances.
No major breakthroughs happened.
The deadlock was caused mostly by both sides not allowing any piece of land to give some kind of advantage to the enemy, even if there was little advantage.
As the war continued, and more blood was lost on both sides, the soldiers grew tired of war and had begun to make large threats to the government.

The Creation Museum is a 75,000 square foot museum near Petersburg, Kentucky, United States.
It was made to tell the story of Young Earth creationism.
The museum shows its view of the theory of the start of the universe, life, mankind, and man's early history.
It is based on the book of Genesis in the Bible.
This book is the story of how God made the Earth, and all of its life forms in just six days.
This is said to have happened about 6000 years ago.
The museum rejects evolution, and points to alternative explanations to answer evolutionist's objections.

George Whitefield (16 December 1714 – 30 September 1770), was a preacher in the Church of England.
He was one of the leaders of the Methodist movement.
Colonists loved to hear him preach of love and forgiveness as he had a different style of preaching compared to Old World priests.
This led to new missionary work in the Americas in converting Indians to Christianity.
He helped establish the Evangelical movement, which was based on the idea that salvation could be achieved through believing in Jesus  and following God’s word in the Bible.

One of the big Romanian cities, Timişoara, though the name makes it seem like it, is not settled on the river.
Although, the name comes from the river, when about 800 years ago the region was a swampy one and the Timiş had a very large flow area.
In 1728 when the rivers Timiş and Bega were canalized, Timiş stopped to flow through the city.

The Spanish Conquest of Yucatán was the campaign undertaken by the Spanish conquistadores against the Late Postclassic Maya states.
This part of the conquest and colonization of the Americas began in the early 16th century, but it took more time than the similar campaigns against the Aztec and Inca Empires.
It was about 170 years later before the last Maya stronghold fell, that of the Itza capital of Tayasal on Lake Petén Itzá, in 1697.
But except for the Petén region and the Guatemalan highlands, the Spanish had control over Yucatán itself already by 1546.
Unlike the campaigns against the Aztec and Inca states, the Maya had no single political center.
Therefore the Spanish had to fight city by city to break resistance by the indigenous peoples.
In the beginning the conquistadores were mainly interested to get as much gold and silver as possible.
Because the Maya lands were poor in this respect, they were not very interesting for the Spanish at that stage.
But when land workers became important for the colonies, the Spanish turned to the Maya region.
That was around the 1520s.

The Popol Vuh (K'iche for "Council Book" or "Book of the Community";  Popol Wu'uj  in modern spelling) is a book written in the Classical Quiché language.
It contains mythological stories and a genealogy of the rulers of the Post-Classic Quiché Maya kingdom of highland Guatemala.
The book contains a creation myth followed by mythological stories of two Hero Twins: Hunahpu (Modern K'iche': Junajpu) and Xbalanque (Modern K'iche': Xb‘alanke).
The second part of the book deals with details of the foundation and history of the Quiché kingdom.
The book is written in the Latin alphabet, but it is thought to have been based on an original Maya codex.
The original manuscript which was written around 1550 has been lost, but a copy of another handwritten copy in the early 18th century exists today in Chicago.

Gods create world.
Gods create first "mud" or clay humans.
Secondly, Maker and Creator, create "wood" humans; they are imperfect and emotionless.
Gods destroy first humans in a "resin" flood; they become monkeys.
Twin diviners Hunahpu & Xbalanque destroy arrogant Vucub-Caquix, then Zipacna & Cabracan.
Diviners Xpiyacoc and Xmucane beget brothers.
HunHunahpu & Xbaquiyalo beget "Monkey Twins" HunBatz & HunChouen.
Cruel Xibalba lords kill the brothers HunHunahpu & VucubHunahpu.
HunHunahpu & Xquic beget "Hero Twins" Hunahpu & Xbalanque.
"Hero Twins" defeat the Xibalba houses of Gloom, Knives, Cold, Jaguars, Fire, and Bats.
The first four "real" people are made: Jaguar Quiché, Jaguar Night, Naught, & Wind Jaguar.
Tribes descend; they speak the same language and travel to TulanZuiva.
The tribes language becomes confused, and they disperse.
Tohil is recognized as a god and demands life sacrifices; later he must be hidden.
Tohil affects Earth Lords through priests, but his dominion destroys the Quiche.
Priests try to abduct tribes for sacrifices; the tribes try to resist this.
Quiche finds Gumarcah where Gucumatz (the feathered serpent lord) raises them to power.
Gucumatz institutes elaborate rituals.
Genealogies of the tribes
There was only immobility and silence in the darkness, in the night.
Only the Creator, the Maker, Tepeu, Gucumatz, the Forefathers, were in the water surrounded with light.
They were hidden under green and blue feathers, and were therefore called Gucumatz...
Then while they meditated, it became clear to them that when dawn would break, man must appear.
Then they planned the creation, and the growth of the trees and the thickets and the birth of life and the creation of man.
Thus it was arranged in the darkness and in the night by the Heart of Heaven who is called Huracán.
The first is called Caculhá Huracán.
The second is ChipiCaculhá.
The third is Raxa-Caculhá.
And these three are the Heart of Heaven.
Their first attempts proved unsuccessful.
They attempted to make man of mud, but man could neither move nor speak.
After destroying the mud men, they tried again by creating wooden creatures that could speak but had no soul or blood and quickly forgot him.
Angered over the flaws in his creation, they destroyed them by tearing them apart.
In their final attempt, the “True People” were constructed with maize.
The following is an excerpt of this myth:
They came together in darkness to think and reflect.
This is how they came to decide on the right material for the creation of man. ...
Then our Makers Tepew and Q'uk'umatz began discussing the creation of our first mother and father.
Their flesh was made of white and yellow corn.
The arms and legs of the four men were made of corn meal.

McCune-Reischauer romanization (Maek'yun-Raisyawŏ P'yogipŏp) is one of the two most widely used Korean language romanization systems, along with the Revised Romanization of Korean, which replaced (a modified) McCune-Reischauer as the official romanization system in South Korea in 2000.
Another variant of McCune-Reischauer is used as the official system in North Korea.
The Revised Romanization of Korean is what South Korea uses to turn their writing system into the Roman alphabet.
It is meant to replace the McCune-Reischauer system.
Lake Annecy (Lac d'Annecy in French) is a lake in the Haute-Savoie area of France.
It is the second biggest lake in France.
Before 1860, the territory of the modern Haute-Savoie and Savoie departments had been part of the Kingdom of Sardinia, as a Duchy, since 1713.
Annexation of the region by France was made in 1860.
In that year, the Emperor Napoléon III divided the territory in two departments: Savoie, to the south, with the city of Chambéry, and Haute-Savoie, to the north, with the city of Annecy.
Haute ("High") in the name Haute-Savoie is not because of the altitude but because of its position, to the north, in the territory.
The department of Haute-Savoie was created in 1860 from the northern part of the Duchy of Sardinia with four arrondissements: Annecy, Bonneville, Saint-Julien and Thonon.
The capital was Annecy.
On 10 September 1926, the arrondissement of Saint-Julien was eliminated but became again an arrondissement in 1933.
The Haute-Savoie is part of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region.
In the territory of the department is a part of the Mont Blanc massif, on the border with Italy.
The average altitude of the department is of about .
The highest point in the department is  Mont Blanc (; it is  high, the highest point of France, Italy and of Western Europe.
The Haute-Savoie department is within the watershed of the Rhône river but with short rivers.
There are two important lakes in the department: the Lake Geneva, shared with Switzerland, and the Lake Annecy.
Haute-Savoie is managed by the Departmental Council of Haute-Savoie in Annecy.
There are 4 arrondissements (districts), 17 cantons and 281 communes (municipalities) in Haute-Savoie.

In mathematics, a polynomial is a kind of mathematical expression.
It is a sum of several mathematical terms called monomials.
That is, a number, a variable, or a product of a number and several variables.
When an algebraic expression contains letters mixed with numbers and arithmetic, like , there is a good chance that it is a polynomial.
Polynomials are taught in algebra, which is a gateway course to all technical subjects.
Mathematicians, scientists and engineers all use polynomials to solve problems.
In algebra, when letters, numbers, and arithmetic symbols occur together, the understanding is that the letters stand for variables, which are either symbols of their own, numbers not yet known, or numbers that change during the course of the problem (such as time).
A polynomial is an algebraic expression in which the only arithmetic is addition, subtraction, multiplication and whole number exponentiation.
If harder operations are used, such as division or square roots, then this algebraic expression is not a polynomial.
Polynomials are often easier to use than other algebraic expressions.
Polynomials are often used to form polynomial equations, such as the equation , or polynomial functions, such as .
Given a series of  numbers , a polynomial of variable  generally takes the form .
The parts of a polynomial separated by plus (or minus) signs are called "terms", and the signs are themselves part of the term.
(In a polynomial, multiplication is "understood".
That means, for example, that  means two times , or twice .
So that if  is , then  is .)
Thus, in the polynomial , the terms are:
If a polynomial has only one term, it is called a "monomial".
Monomial are also the building blocks of polynomials.
For example,  is a monomial.
In a term, the multiplier out in front is called a "coefficient".
The letter is called an "unknown" or a "variable", and the raised number after the letter is called an exponent.
On a calculator and some computers, instead of putting an exponent above and to the right of the variable, the symbol ^ is used, so that the monomial above could be written as ^.
A polynomial with exactly two terms is called a "binomial".
A polynomial with exactly three terms is called a "trinomial".
Within a term:
A term with no variables in it is called a "constant term".
A term with one variable but no exponent is called a "first degree term", or a "linear term".
A term with one variable which has exponent  is called a "second degree term" or "quadratic term".
A "quadratic equation" is an equation in which the largest exponent on any term is .
A term with one variable which has exponent  is called a "third degree term" or "cubic term."
A "cubic equation" is an equation in which the largest exponent on any term is .
A term with one variable which has exponent  is called a "fourth degree term" or "quartic term."
A "quartic equation" is an equation in which the largest exponent on any term is .
A term with one variable which has exponent  is called a "fifth degree term" or "quintic term."
A "quintic equation" is an equation in which the largest exponent on any term is .
A term with one variable which has exponent  is called a "sixth degree term" or "sextic term."
A "sextic equation" is an equation in which the largest exponent on any term is .
In mathematics, an unknown is a number we do not know.
They are commonly used in algebra, where they are also known as variables and represented by symbols such as ,  and .
In science, an unknown value is represented by a letter in the Roman or Greek alphabet.
They are used most often in physics, where equations are used to describe the relationship between physical properties.
For example, in the equation , the letter  represents an unknown (in this case, mass), and the letter  also represents an unknown (in this case the amount of energy).
If we know the value of all but one of the unknowns, then we would be able to easily find out the value of the last unknown—by solving the equation in terms of that last unknown.
When letters in science are used this way, not all of them represent unknowns.
Indeed, some of them might be physical constants, which are values that are known to be the same and do not change.
In the example above,  represents a known quantity, the speed of light, which is about 186 thousand miles per second.
And because  is so large, the formula  tells a person who understands algebra that in an atomic reaction, a small amount of mass can produce a very large amount of energy.

An online pharmacy is a pharmacy that operates on the Internet to sell medications to consumers.
There are online pharmacies in many countries of the world—from India, the U.S., Germany, the UK—and many other nations that sell to consumers in their own countries and often to consumers worldwide.
Prices at a given online pharmacy can vary from one city or country to another.
Typically, drug prices at online pharmacies located in countries with drug price controls in place (i.e., India, UK, Germany, South Africa) will have more affordable costs.
In contrast, costs at pharmacies in countries where there are no drug price controls (i.e., U.S.) will usually be much higher.
Especially for consumers seeking low-priced medications, it can be very worthwhile to compare prices at various online pharmacies.
Prices can vary as much as 80 percent or more for one medication from one country to another.
Risks and concerns
Illegal or unethical pharmacies sometimes send outdated, substituted, or counterfeit medications to the person who ordered the drug instead of the real medication.
Sometimes, an online pharmacy may not be located in a country that is claimed.
For example, one study of drug shipments claiming to be from Canada revealed many of the drugs actually originated in several other countries and were often false medications.
Minors can order controlled substances without adult supervision.
Other concerns include potential lack of confidentiality, improper packaging, inability to check for drug interactions, and several other issues.

The foramen magnum is one of several holes in the base of the skull.
Normally the spinal cord is attached to it.
The Foramen Magnum is the largest aperture in the primate body.
This hole is located in the base of the human skull as part of the occipital bone, back of the monkey skull and in between those locations for apes.
It is directly correlated with locomotion ( Humans are bipedal, monkeys quadrupedal and apes are knuckle walkers. )
Bipedalism is a form of movement on the ground.
Some tetrapods have evolved the ability to move on two limbs.
Those that do, use their rear limbs.
Some animals move on two limbs all the time, they are called habitual bipeds.
Optional bipeds can move on two or four legs.
Early quadruped animals used all four limbs for locomotion but many later ones are bipedal.
The earliest dinosaurs were bipedal but millions of years later some reverted and became quadrupeds.
Birds are descendants of bipedal dinosaurs, and are bipeds themselves.
Their forelimbs have become wings.
Some optional bipeds stand on two legs to drive away competitors and predators, to see farther, or as body language.
Their locomotion is on four limbs.
Amongst mammals, apes, bears and pangolins are optional bipeds.
Some small mammals can stand up on two legs quite well, but only move on four legs.
Meerkats are a familiar example.
Birds carry their weight vertical.
This is especially obvious in the ostrich, which is the fastest running biped.
Bipedal dinosaurs, on the other hand, carried the body more or less horizontal.
The weight of the front part of the body was balanced by the weight of their tails.
Dinosaurs were probably primitively bipedal, and the larger herbivores reverted to quadrupeds as their weight increased.
Pangolins are bipedal when walking on a level surface.
They keep their body horizontal, and the tail balances the front part.
Some primates can walk bipedal sometimes.
Humans are the only living primates that are normally biped.
The Taung Child is a fossil of a skull.
The skull also has an imprint of the brain.
It belongs to an Australopithecus africanus.
It was discovered in 1924 by a quarryman working for the Northern Lime Company in Taung, South Africa.
Raymond Dart, an anatomist at the University of Witwatersrand, looked at the fossil, and saw its importance.
Dart published his account in the journal Nature in 1925, describing it as a new species.
British anthropologists at the time believed in the Piltdown Man.
This hoax had a large brain and ape-like teeth – the exact opposite of the Taung Child – so Dart's finding was not appreciated for decades.
The fossil consists of most of the skull, face and mandible with teeth.
It also has a natural endocast (imprint) of the braincase.
It is about 2.5 million years old.
Taung Child is believed to have been about three years old at the time of its death.
It was a creature standing 3' 6" (105 cm) at approximately 20-24 pounds.
Taung Child had a cranial capacity of 340 cc, living mainly in a savanna habitat.
Examinations of Taung Child compared to that of an equivalent 9-year-old child suggest that A. africanus had a growth rate to adolescence which is about the same as that found in modern apes like chimpanzees rather than that of modern Homo sapiens.
However, later species such as Homo ergaster/Homo erectus went through growth at rates between modern humans and apes.
The evidence has mostly been based on that of Turkana boy discovered in 1984.
In early 2006 it was announced  that the Taung Child was likely killed by an eagle (or similar large predatory bird).
This conclusion was reached by noting similarities in the damage to the skull and eye sockets of the Taung Child to the skulls of primates known to have been killed by modern eagles.

Dennis Keith Rodman (born May 13, 1961) played basketball in the National Basketball Association (NBA) from 1986 to 2000.
He won two championships with the Detroit Pistons and three more with the Chicago Bulls.
Even though he was only 6'7" tall, many people think he was the best rebounder in NBA history.
He led the NBA in rebounding for a record seven straight seasons.
Only Wilt Chamberlain led the NBA in rebounding for more total seasons in a career.
Rodman has the highest rebound rate since the statistic began in 1970-71.
Although Rodman began his career as a bench player, he holds the highest rebounds per game average since offensive and defensive rebounds began in 1973-74.
When he became a full-time starter, Rodman often got more rebounds than the other team's starting players got combined.
He could predict where missed shots would go and knew how to tip the ball to himself for a rebound.
Rodman watched film of player's shots to become a better rebounder.
Rodman is also known as one of the greatest defensive players of all time, and not just for his defensive rebounds, but his hustle defense.
During his time with the Detroit Pistons, Rodman was considered by many to be the best defensive basketball player in the world (Hakeem Olajuwon was the other main contender for the title), as highlighted by his back-to-back NBA Defensive Player of the Year Awards in 1990 and 1991.
Rodman was famous for dyeing his hair different colors and having many tattoos and body piercings, which he began to have after being traded by the Detroit Pistons.
He has been in a few movies and television programs.

Coconut water is the liquid inside young coconuts.
Coconut water is a popular drink in tropical islands especially in tropical Asia, Pacific Islands, and the Caribbean.
It is packaged and sold.
It is sometimes sold as a sports drink, but not everyone agrees that it should be called a sports drink.
Coconuts hold the most water when they are young and green.
Coconuts in different parts of the world do not taste the same.
Pakistani Coconuts are salty, and Brazilian Coconuts have sweeter water.
The water inside dark brown rotted coconuts is bitter.
Ralph Waldo Ellison (March 1, 1913–April 16, 1994) was an African-American writer.
He was born in Oklahoma and studied at the Tuskegee Institute.
Ellison is most famous for writing Invisible Man, a novel about racism and African American identity.
The narrator of the book calls himself an invisible man because people refuse to see him for who he really is.
Invisible Man won a National Book Award and is still read today by many students and scholars.
Besides Invisible Man, Ellison wrote many essays.
He was very interested in music, especially jazz.
He started a second novel, called Juneteenth, but never finished it.

When the Founding Fathers wrote the Constitution, they wanted to make sure that their new government would not have any of the problems that the colonial British government did.
For example, they did not want there to be any person in the government who had complete power and could do whatever he wanted, like a king.
They also did not want any part of the government to get so powerful that nobody could control it.
Because of this, they split the government's power into three different branches.
Each branch has ways of balancing out the power of another branch if it gets too powerful.
This is called the system of checks and balances.
Members of the U.S. Electoral College elect a President, who is the leader of the executive branch.
The President is also the leader of the Armed Forces.
The President cannot make laws.
This is a "check" on the President's power, so he cannot make laws to give himself more power.
However, when the Legislative branch passes a law, the President can decide whether or not to veto the law.
In this way, the President can "check" the power of the Legislature.
The President may also make "executive orders" to make sure that people follow the law.
One famous executive order was President Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation.
Another was President Dwight D. Eisenhower's order to send 1,200 soldiers from the 101st Airborne Division to allow the Little Rock Nine into a school that refused to admit African American students.
The President is in charge of many departments that control much of the day-to-day business of government.
For example, the Department of Commerce makes rules about trade and business.
The President chooses the heads of these departments, and also nominates judges at the federal (nation-wide) level.
However, the United States Senate, part of the legislative branch, must agree with all of the people the President chooses.
This is another check on the President's power, so he cannot just fill these departments and courts with people that will always agree with him.
The purpose of this rule is to prevent a person from staying President for his whole life, like a king.
The Judiciary branch is made up of federal courts: the United States Supreme Court; appellate (appeals) courts, and district courts.
The Judicial branch interprets the laws.
This means that if there is a question about what a law means, or whether something is illegal, these courts decide.
Interpreting federal laws;
Settling legal arguments;
Punishing people who break federal laws;
Hearing civil cases;
Protecting individual rights granted by the Constitution;
Deciding whether people accused of breaking federal criminal laws are guilty or not guilty;
Acting as a check upon the legislative and executive branches of government, to make sure neither gets too powerful.
Most cases brought before the Supreme Court are appeals that have been tried in the district or appellate courts.
Once a decision has been made by the Supreme Court, that is the final decision.
Only another Supreme Court decision, in another case, can change it.
Of the nine Supreme Court justices (judges), one is selected to be the Chief Justice.
The Chief Justice assigns justices to write the Court's opinions and decisions.
The legislative branch is called Congress.
Congress is divided into two "houses."
One house is the United States House of Representatives (often just called "The House").
The House of Representatives is made up of Representatives (also called Congressmen).
They are each elected by voters from their own state.
Each state has a different number of Representatives.
The number depends on how many people live in the state.
The more people a state has, the more representatives it gets.
Every 10 years, the U.S. Census Bureau does a census, or count, of the population of the United States.
States may gain or lose Representatives if the Census shows that the state's population has changed.
As of 2016, there are 435 Representatives in the House.
Representatives serve two-year terms.
The leader of the House of Representatives is the Speaker of the House, who is also the person who would become president if the President and Vice President were unable.
Every state also has its own state House of Representatives.
This should not be confused with the United States House of Representatives.
Each state's House of Representatives only deals with issues that affect that state.
The United States House of Representatives deals with issues that affect the whole country.
The other house is the United States Senate.
In the Senate, each state is represented equally, by two Senators.
Because there are 50 states, there are 100 senators.
Before the President makes treaties or hires officials, the Senate must approve them.
Senators serve six-year terms.
The Vice President of the United States serves as president of the Senate, but may only vote on something to break a tie vote.
The Vice President is usually absent from the Senate, and a Senator is selected to serve as president pro tempore, or temporary president, of the Senate.
Each state also has its own state Senate.
Like with the House, this should not be confused with the United States Senate, which deals with federal issues.
How laws are made
Representatives and Senators suggest laws, called "bills", in their separate houses.
A bill may be voted upon by the entire house right away, or may first go to a small group of members of that house, known as a committee, which may recommend a bill for a vote by the whole house.
If one house votes to pass a bill, the bill then gets sent to the other house.
if both houses vote for it, it is then sent to the President.
The President may sign the bill, ignore it, or veto it.
If the President signs or ignores the bill, it becomes a federal law.
If the President vetoes the bill, it is sent back to Congress.
If Congress votes again and at least two-thirds of Congress votes for the bill, it becomes law.
The President cannot veto it again.
This is another check on the President's power.
Under the American system of federalism, Congress may not make laws that directly control the states.
Instead, Congress may use the promise of federal funds or special situations, such as national emergencies, to encourage the states to follow federal law.
This system is both complex and unique.
