    A market economy is an economic system where decisions regarding investment , production , and distribution are based on the interplay of supply and demand , which determines the prices of goods and services . The major defining characteristic of a market economy is that investment decisions , or the allocation of producer good , are primarily made through capital and financial markets . This is contrasted with a planned economy , where investment and production decisions are embodied in an integrated plan of production established by a state or other organizational body that controls the factors of production .

A typical physical recording console has a pan control for each incoming source channel . A pan control or pan pot ( short for `` panoramic potentiometer '' ) is an analog knob or slider with a position indicator which can range continuously from the 8 o'clock when fully left to the 4 o'clock position fully right . Audio mixing software replaces pan pots with on - screen virtual knobs or sliders which function identically to the physical counterparts .

    By August 1945 , the Allies ' Manhattan Project had produced two types of atomic bomb , and the 509th Composite Group of the United States Army Air Forces ( USAAF ) was equipped with the specialized Silverplate version of the Boeing B - 29 Superfortress that could deliver them from Tinian in the Mariana Islands . Orders for atomic bombs to be used on four Japanese cities were issued on July 25 . On August 6 , one of its B - 29s dropped a Little Boy uranium gun - type bomb on Hiroshima . Three days later , on August 9 , a Fat Man plutonium implosion - type bomb was dropped by another B - 29 on Nagasaki . The bombs immediately devastated their targets . Over the next two to four months , the acute effects of the atomic bombings killed 90,000 -- 146,000 people in Hiroshima and 39,000 -- 80,000 people in Nagasaki ; roughly half of the deaths in each city occurred on the first day . Large numbers of people continued to die from the effects of burns , radiation sickness , and other injuries , compounded by illness and malnutrition , for many months afterward . In both cities , most of the dead were civilians , although Hiroshima had a sizable military garrison .

    After World War II , cigarette companies advertised frequently on television programs . To combat this move by the cigarette companies , the Federal Communications Commission required television stations to air anti-smoking advertisements at no cost to the organizations providing such advertisements . In 1970 , Congress took their anti-smoking initiative one step further and passed the Public Health Cigarette Smoking Act , banning the advertising of cigarettes on television and radio starting on January 2 , 1971 . After the television ban , most cigarette advertising took place in magazines , newspapers , and on billboards . However , in 1999 all cigarette billboard advertisements were replaced with anti-smoking messages , with some of these anti-smoking messages playing parodies of cigarette companies advertising figures and slogans . Since 1984 , cigarette companies have also been forced to place Surgeon 's General warnings on all cigarette packs and advertisements because of the passing of the Federal Cigarette Labeling and Advertising Act . Restrictions on cigarette companies became even tighter in 2010 with the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act . The act prohibits tobacco companies from sponsoring sports , music , and other cultural events and also prevents the display of their logos or products on T - shirts , hats , or other apparel . The constitutionality of both this act and the Food and Drug Administration 's new graphic cigarette warning labels are being questioned under cigarette companies ' first amendment rights .

    The mammalian sperm cell consists of a head , neck , a midpiece and a tail . The head contains the nucleus with densely coiled chromatin fibres , surrounded anteriorly by an acrosome , which contains enzymes used for penetrating the female egg . The neck contains the sperm centriole . The midpiece has a central filamentous core with many mitochondria spiralled around it , used for ATP production for the journey through the female cervix , uterus and uterine tubes . The tail or `` flagellum '' executes the lashing movements that propel the spermatocyte .

    With the annexation of Hawaii in 1898 and the seizure of Guam and the Philippines during the Spanish -- American War that same year , the United States began to consider unclaimed and uninhabited Wake Island , located approximately halfway between Honolulu and Manila , as a good location for a telegraph cable station and coaling station for refueling warships of the rapidly expanding United States Navy and passing merchant and passenger steamships . On July 4 , 1898 , United States Army Brigadier General Francis V. Greene of the 2nd Brigade , Philippine Expeditionary Force , of the Eighth Army Corps , stopped at Wake Island and raised the American flag while en route to the Philippines on the steamship liner SS China .

    Motile sperm cells typically move via flagella and require a water medium in order to swim toward the egg for fertilization . In animals most of the energy for sperm motility is derived from the metabolism of fructose carried in the seminal fluid . This takes place in the mitochondria located in the sperm 's midpiece ( at the base of the sperm head ) . These cells can not swim backwards due to the nature of their propulsion . The uniflagellated sperm cells ( with one flagellum ) of animals are referred to as spermatozoa , and are known to vary in size .

    The Basketball Association of America was founded in 1946 by owners of the major ice hockey arenas in the Northeastern and Midwestern United States and Canada . On November 1 , 1946 , in Toronto , Ontario , Canada , the Toronto Huskies hosted the New York Knickerbockers at Maple Leaf Gardens , in a game the NBA now refers to as the first played game in NBA history . The first basket was made by Ossie Schectman of the Knickerbockers . Although there had been earlier attempts at professional basketball leagues , including the American Basketball League and the NBL , the BAA was the first league to attempt to play primarily in large arenas in major cities . During its early years , the quality of play in the BAA was not significantly better than in competing leagues or among leading independent clubs such as the Harlem Globetrotters . For instance , the 1948 ABL finalist Baltimore Bullets moved to the BAA and won that league 's 1948 title , and the 1948 NBL champion Minneapolis Lakers won the 1949 BAA title . Prior to the 1948 -- 49 season , however , NBL teams from Fort Wayne , Indianapolis , Minneapolis , and Rochester jumped to the BAA , which established the BAA as the league of choice for collegians looking to turn professional .

It is considered that Tennyson wrote it in elegy ; the poem has a tone of finality and the narrator uses an extended metaphor to compare death with crossing the `` sandbar '' between river of life , with its outgoing `` flood '' , and the ocean that lies beyond ( death ) , the `` boundless deep '' , to which we return .

    Protectionism is the economic policy of restricting imports from other countries through methods such as tariffs on imported goods , import quotas , and a variety of other government regulations . Proponents claim that protectionist policies shield the producers , businesses , and workers of the import - competing sector in the country from foreign competitors . However , they also reduce trade and adversely affect consumers in general ( by raising the cost of imported goods ) , and harm the producers and workers in export sectors , both in the country implementing protectionist policies , and in the countries protected against .

    The Eleventh Amendment was the first Constitutional amendment adopted after the Bill of Rights . The amendment was adopted following the Supreme Court 's ruling in Chisholm v. Georgia , 2 U.S. 419 ( 1793 ) .

Thus , the amendment clarified Article III , Section 2 of the Constitution , which gives diversity jurisdiction to the judiciary to hear cases `` between a state and citizens of another state '' .

    Other than the few bulls needed for breeding , the vast majority of male cattle are slaughtered for meat before the age of three years , except where they are needed ( castrated ) as work oxen for haulage . Most of these beef animals are castrated as calves to reduce aggressive behavior and prevent unwanted mating , although some are reared as uncastrated bull beef . A bull is typically ready for slaughter one or two months sooner than a castrated male or a female , and produces proportionately more , leaner muscle .

    Many cattle ranches and stations run bulls with cows , and most dairy or beef farms traditionally had at least one , if not several , bulls for purposes of herd maintenance . However , the problems associated with handling a bull ( particularly where cows must be removed from its presence to be worked ) has prompted many dairy farmers to restrict themselves to artificial insemination ( AI ) of the cows . Semen is removed from the bulls and stored in canisters of liquid nitrogen , where it is kept until it can be sold , at which time it can be very profitable , in fact , many ranchers keep bulls specifically for this purpose . AI is also used to increase the quality of a herd , or to introduce an outcross of bloodlines . Some ranchers prefer to use AI to allow them to breed to several different bulls in a season or to breed their best stock to a higher quality bull than they could afford to purchase outright . AI may also be used in conjunction with embryo transfer to allow cattle producers to add new breeding to their herds .

They facilitated an efficient trading system with other Greek city states . Again , pots and other forms of cooking utensils seem to have been the most quantitatively traded product ( over 80,000 amphorae and other such things have been recovered from around Athens in archaeological digs ) . Marble and bronze artwork also seems to have been traded ( though it was largely a luxury product , and this trade only really exploded after the rise of the Roman Republic , as Greek Art exerted a massive influence on Roman Culture on all levels ) .

Once appointed and sworn in by the governor general , the prime minister remains in office until he or she resigns , is dismissed , or dies .

    Conscription in the United States , commonly known as the draft , has been employed by the federal government of the United States in five conflicts : the American Revolution , the American Civil War , World War I , World War II , and the Cold War ( including both the Korean War and the Vietnam War ) . The third incarnation of the draft came into being in 1940 through the Selective Training and Service Act . It was the country 's first peacetime draft . From 1940 until 1973 , during both peacetime and periods of conflict , men were drafted to fill vacancies in the United States Armed Forces that could not be filled through voluntary means . The draft came to an end when the United States Armed Forces moved to an all - volunteer military force . However , the Selective Service System remains in place as a contingency plan ; all male civilians between the ages of 18 and 25 are required to register so that a draft can be readily resumed if needed . United States Federal Law also provides for the compulsory conscription of men between the ages of 17 and 45 and certain women for militia service pursuant to Article I , Section 8 of the United States Constitution and 10 U.S. Code § 246 .

    Senatorial opponents of the war wanted to reduce this to a one - year extension , or eliminate the draft altogether , or tie the draft renewal to a timetable for troop withdrawal from Vietnam ; Senator Mike Gravel of Alaska took the most forceful approach , trying to filibuster the draft renewal legislation , shut down conscription , and directly force an end to the war . Senators supporting Nixon 's war efforts supported the bill , even though some had qualms about ending the draft . After a prolonged battle in the Senate , in September 1971 cloture was achieved over the filibuster and the draft renewal bill was approved . Meanwhile , military pay was increased as an incentive to attract volunteers , and television advertising for the U.S. Army began . With the end of active U.S. ground participation in Vietnam , December 1972 saw the last men conscripted , who were born in 1952 and who reported for duty in June 1973 . On February 2 , 1972 , a drawing was held to determine draft priority numbers for men born in 1953 , but in early 1973 it was announced by Secretary of Defense Melvin Laird that no further draft orders would be issued . In March 1973 , 1974 , and 1975 , the Selective Service assigned draft priority numbers for all men born in 1954 , 1955 , and 1956 , in case the draft was extended , but it never was .

    Most eukaryotic cells have mitochondria , which produce ATP from products of the citric acid cycle , fatty acid oxidation , and amino acid oxidation . At the mitochondrial inner membrane , electrons from NADH and FADH2 pass through the electron transport chain to oxygen , which is reduced to water . The electron transport chain comprises an enzymatic series of electron donors and acceptors . Each electron donor will pass electrons to a more electronegative acceptor , which in turn donates these electrons to another acceptor , a process that continues down the series until electrons are passed to oxygen , the most electronegative and terminal electron acceptor in the chain . Passage of electrons between donor and acceptor releases energy , which is used to generate a proton gradient across the mitochondrial membrane by actively `` pumping '' protons into the intermembrane space , producing a thermodynamic state that has the potential to do work . The entire process is called oxidative phosphorylation , since ADP is phosphorylated to ATP using the energy of hydrogen oxidation in many steps .

    An electron transport chain ( ETC ) is a series of complexes that transfer electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors via redox ( both reduction and oxidation occurring simultaneously ) reactions , and couples this electron transfer with the transfer of protons ( H ions ) across a membrane . This creates an electrochemical proton gradient that drives the synthesis of adenosine triphosphate ( ATP ) , a molecule that stores energy chemically in the form of highly strained bonds . The molecules of the chain include peptides , enzymes ( which are proteins or protein complexes ) , and others . The final acceptor of electrons in the electron transport chain during aerobic respiration is molecular oxygen although a variety of acceptors other than oxygen such as sulfate exist in anaerobic respiration .

    Microscope slides are often used together with a cover slip or cover glass , a smaller and thinner sheet of glass that is placed over the specimen . Slides are held in place on the microscope 's stage by slide clips , slide clamps or a cross-table which is used to achieve precise , remote movement of the slide upon the microscope 's stage ( such as in an automated / computer operated system , or where touching the slide with fingers is inappropriate either due to the risk of contamination or lack of precision )

    The original building was completed in 1800 and was subsequently expanded , particularly with the addition of the massive dome , and expanded chambers for the bicameral legislature , the House of Representatives in the south wing and the Senate in the north wing . Like the principal buildings of the executive and judicial branches , the Capitol is built in a distinctive neoclassical style and has a white exterior . Both its east and west elevations are formally referred to as fronts , though only the east front was intended for the reception of visitors and dignitaries .

    The Senate ( north ) wing was completed in 1800 . The Senate and House shared quarters in the north wing until a temporary wooden pavilion was erected on the future site of the House wing which served for a few years for the Representatives to meet in , until the House of Representatives ( south ) wing was finally completed in 1811 , with a covered wooden temporary walkway connecting the two wings with the Congressional chambers where the future center section with rotunda and dome would someday rise . However , the House of Representatives moved early into their House wing in 1807 . Though the Senate wing building was incomplete , the Capitol held its first session of the United States Congress with both chambers in session on November 17 , 1800 . The National Legislature was moved to Washington prematurely , at the urging of President John Adams , in hopes of securing enough Southern votes in the Electoral College to be re-elected for a second term as President .

    While originally slated to commence in Las Vegas on April 8 , 2016 , a previously unannounced warmup gig at the Troubadour in Los Angeles took place on April 1 , 2016 . Rumors of the secret show had started the night before , and fans were starting to gather outside the old Tower Records building at Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood . Rumblings that a ticket sale for the show would take place there started a line of people that grew during the night and into the early morning of April 1 . Then , during the morning , the announcement came that the rumors were true and tickets for the club show would go on sale at 12 pm at the Tower Records building . They charged a $10 `` retro '' ticket price for the show . Later in the evening , as the band took the stage at the Troubadour , it was revealed that Melissa Reese , who has previously worked with former drummer Bryan `` Brain '' Mantia on several projects , had replaced longtime second keyboardist Chris Pitman for the tour . During the show at the Troubadour , Rose fell and broke his foot . For the following concerts , Rose was given Dave Grohl 's customized throne that Grohl used to perform when he broke his leg at a concert .

    The music to `` Man Gave Names to All the Animals '' is reggae - inspired . The lyrics were inspired by the biblical Book of Genesis , verses 2 : 19 -- 20 in which Adam named the animals and birds . The lyrics have an appeal to children , rhyming the name of the animal with one of its characteristics . So after describing an animal 's `` muddy trail '' and `` curly tail , '' Dylan sings that `` he was n't too small and he was n't too big '' and so that animal was named a pig . Similarly , the cow got its name because Adam `` saw milk comin ' out but he did n't know how '' and the bear got its name because it has a `` great big furry back and furry hair . ''

    After a player has been designated for assignment , the other 30 NHL teams can put in a claim or waive their claim for that player . The claims process starts at noon Eastern Time and ends 24 hours later . If only one team makes a claim for the player , then he will be transferred to the claiming team . If more than one team makes a claim , then the player will be transferred to the team having the lowest percentage of possible points in league standings at the time of the request for waivers . When a waiver claim has been secured , the claiming team must pay a transfer fee to the original club , though this fee is not counted against the salary cap . If waivers are requested outside the playing season , or before November 1 , then the player shall be transferred to the team with the lowest points in the preceding season . If no team places a claim , the player can be sent to a minor league affiliate .

    In 1307 Mansa Musa came to the throne after a series of civil wars and ruled for thirty years . During the peak of the kingdom , Mali was extremely wealthy . This was due to the tax on trade in and out of the empire , along with all the gold Mansa Musa had . He had so much gold that during his hajj to Mecca , the Mansa passed out gold to all the poor along the way . This led to inflation throughout the kingdom . Mansa Musa also ran out of gold on the hajj to Mecca but was not concerned because he knew he had enough gold back in Mali to pay back everything he owed money to . Trade was a significant factor to the rise and success of Mali . Mali flourished especially when Timbuktu came under Mansa Musa 's control . Timbuktu was a place of trade , entertainment , and education . The city 's water supply was a leading cause to its successes in trade . Mansa Musa placed a heavy tax on all objects that went through Timbuktu . Although this time in the kingdom was prosperous , Mali 's wealth and power soon declined . Mali was thriving for a long time , but like other western pre-colonial kingdom , Mali began to fall . Constant civil war between leaders led to a weakened state . These conflicts also interrupted trade . This is one of the main factors to the fall of the kingdom . Trade was Mali 's form of income , and wealth . With trade being disrupted by wars , there was no way for the economy to continue to prosper . As a result of this the empire fell .

    Ashes are ceremonially placed on the heads of Christians on Ash Wednesday , either by being sprinkled over their heads or , in English - speaking countries , more often by being marked on their foreheads as a visible cross . The words ( based on Genesis 3 : 19 ) used traditionally to accompany this gesture are , `` Memento , homo , quia pulvis es , et in pulverem reverteris . '' ( `` Remember , man , that thou art dust , and to dust thou shalt return . '' ) This custom is credited to Pope Gregory I the Great ( c. 540 -- 604 ) . In the 1969 revision of the Roman Rite , an alternative formula ( based on Mark 1 : 15 ) was introduced and given first place `` Repent , and believe in the Gospel '' and the older formula was translated as `` Remember that you are dust , and to dust you shall return . '' The old formula , based on the words spoken to Adam and Eve after their sin , reminds worshippers of their sinfulness and mortality and thus , implicitly , of their need to repent in time . The newer formula makes explicit what was only implicit in the old .

    Originally populated by the indigenous Taíno people , the island was claimed in 1493 by Christopher Columbus for Spain during his second voyage . Later it endured invasion attempts from the French , Dutch , and British . Four centuries of Spanish colonial government influenced the island 's cultural landscapes with waves of African slaves , Canarian , and Andalusian settlers . In the Spanish Empire , Puerto Rico played a secondary , but strategic role when compared to wealthier colonies like Peru and the mainland parts of New Spain . Spain 's distant administrative control continued up to the end of the 19th century , helping to produce a distinctive creole Hispanic culture and language that combined elements from the Native Americans , Africans , and Iberians . In 1898 , following the Spanish -- American War , the United States acquired Puerto Rico under the terms of the Treaty of Paris . The treaty took effect on April 11 , 1899 .

    • Tim Allen as Mike Baxter : Mike is a father of three daughters and the director of marketing for the Outdoor Man chain of sporting goods stores . He fervently supports traditional American values , is a Protestant , and is politically conservative . Mike loves his daughters but says his favorite is Eve , the youngest and most athletic daughter , and whose political opinions and interests mirror his own . He is proud of her ability to excel at anything she tries , including school work , hunting , and playing sports . Mike often finds himself annoyed with Outdoor Man 's young slow - witted employee Kyle , and with Ryan , his politically liberal son - in - law and the father of Mike 's grandson Boyd . The video blog or `` vlog '' that Mike does for Outdoor Man is frequently used as a vehicle to rant about his political views . Mike is a graduate of the University of Michigan , and an amateur radio operator using the call sign KA0XTT .
    • Nancy Travis as Vanessa Baxter , Mike 's wife : Vanessa is a geologist working in the energy industry for a company that does hydraulic fracturing , or `` fracking '' . In season four , Vanessa becomes frustrated with her job and decides to become a high school science teacher . Vanessa was ambiguous in her political views until season five , when she announces she is supporting Hillary Clinton for president , mainly because she thinks it will advance women 's causes . She is also shown drinking wine frequently , and nearly as frequently mocked by Mike and her daughters about it . She is a graduate of Ohio State University . Vanessa has a tendency to put her foot in her mouth when around people of other races . Despite this , she and her African - American neighbor Carol Larabee seem to get along . Vanessa 's humor tends to include bad puns , which irritate Mike and the girls to no end .
    • Amanda Fuller ( seasons 2 -- 6 ) and Alexandra Krosney ( season 1 ) as Kristin Beth Baxter , the oldest daughter : Kristin , unlike her father , espouses more liberal beliefs .

She began to reconcile with Boyd 's father , Ryan , in season three , and the two get married between seasons four and five . Kristin worked at a diner until landing a job at an upscale restaurant run by a former co-worker at the end of season two . In season four , she becomes the manager of the new restaurant opened by Outdoor Man . Kristin tends to work extra hard in this new job to prove she did not get the position through nepotism , despite Mike and Ed frequently telling her she was qualified . Alexandra Krosney portrayed Kristin in the show 's first season ( despite being nearly two years younger than Molly Ephraim , playing Kristin 's younger sister ) ; Krosney was replaced by Amanda Fuller prior to season two for unspecified creative reasons .
    • Molly Ephraim as Amanda Elaine `` Mandy '' Baxter - Anderson , the middle daughter : Mandy is nowhere near as intelligent as her sisters ( though her penchant for cutting class and ignoring homework might label her as voluntarily dumb ) , but excels in social situations . Interested in fashion ( and little else ) , she was one of the most popular girls at her high school . Mandy is very confident and creative , demonstrating traits found in her father . Unlike the rest of the family , she is lazy , conceited , selfish , insulting , and delinquent -- she drinks underage , ignores all driving laws , shoplifts from Outdoor Man , and has been caught staying out all night -- but occasionally displays moments of generosity and caring . She started dating Kyle in season 2 . As of season three , she is attending a local college and working at the diner where Kristin used to work . Later that same season , she begins an online clothing business , selling her self - designed fashions which she assembles in the basement of her parents ' house . Kyle asks her to marry him in season 5 , the 100th episode . She marries Kyle in season six , but they have yet to move out of the Baxter home . +

      The earlier conceptions likely had little influence on 18th - century European geological explanations for the formation of Earth . Abraham Gottlob Werner ( 1749 -- 1817 ) proposed Neptunism , where strata represented deposits from shrinking seas precipitated onto primordial rocks such as granite . In 1785 James Hutton proposed an opposing , self - maintaining infinite cycle based on natural history and not on the Biblical account .

      The region does not have specific boundaries , but is generally considered to include the 71 miles ( 114 km ) segment of California State Route 1 from Malpaso Creek near Carmel Highlands south to San Carpóforo Creek near San Simeon and the entire Santa Lucia range between the rivers . The interior region is uninhabited , while the coast remains relatively isolated and sparsely populated with about 1,000 year - round residents and relatively few visitor accommodations scattered among four small settlements . When the region was ceded by Mexico to the United States in 1848 , it was the United States ' `` last frontier . '' The region remained one of the most isolated areas of California and the United States until , after 18 years of construction , the Carmel -- San Simeon Highway ( now signed as part of State Route 1 ) was completed in 1937 . The winding , narrow road , often cut into the face of seaside cliffs , dominates the visitor 's experience of Big Sur . The highway has been closed more than 55 times by slides , and in May 2017 , a 2 million cubic foot landslide blocked the highway at Mud Creek , north of Salmon Creek near the San Luis Obispo border , to just south of Gorda . The road is expected to be reopened in June 2018 .

      Walker , Texas Ranger is an American crime action television series created by Leslie Greif and Paul Haggis . It was inspired by the film Lone Wolf McQuade , with both this series and that film starring Chuck Norris as a member of the Texas Ranger Division . The show aired on CBS in the spring of 1993 , with the first season consisting of three pilot episodes . Eight full seasons followed with new episodes airing from September 25 , 1993 , to May 19 , 2001 , and reruns continuing on CBS until July 28 , 2001 . It has been broadcast in over 100 countries and has since spawned a 2005 made - for - television movie entitled Trial By Fire . The movie ended on a cliffhanger , which was never resolved . DVD sets of all seasons have been released ( with the three pilots packaged with the first regular season ) . At various times since 1997 , reruns of the show have aired , in syndication , on the USA Network and Action in Canada . Reruns can currently be seen on CBS Action , WGN America , INSP and Grit and One , being part of Network Ten in Australia .

      In geology , uniformitarianism has included the gradualistic concept that `` the present is the key to the past '' ( that events occur at the same rate now as they have always done ) ; many geologists now , however , no longer hold to a strict theory of gradualism . Coined by William Whewell , the word was proposed in contrast to catastrophism by British naturalists in the late 18th century , starting with the work of the geologist James Hutton . Hutton 's work was later refined by scientist John Playfair and popularised by geologist Charles Lyell 's Principles of Geology in 1830 . Today , Earth 's history is considered to have been a slow , gradual process , punctuated by occasional natural catastrophic events .

      The terms of the new agreement ended the practice of drafting high school players , starting in the 2006 Draft . A high school player must wait at least a year to be eligible for selection . However , they are not required to spend that year in college . In 2008 , high school star Brandon Jennings decided to skip college and play professional basketball in Italy . After a year , he was eligible for the 2009 draft and was selected 10th by the Milwaukee Bucks . In the 2010 draft , Latavious Williams , who did not qualify academically to go to college , spent a year playing in the NBA D - League before he was drafted in the second round . Emmanuel Mudiay decided to take a route similar to that of Brandon Jennings by skipping college to play professionally in China in 2014 before being selected by the Denver Nuggets at pick 7 a year later . In the 2015 draft , Satnam Singh Bhamara , who did not qualify academically to go to college , went straight to the NBA draft as a post-graduate after being at IMG Academy for five years . He would be taken by the Dallas Mavericks with the 52nd pick in the draft , thus becoming the first high school student to be drafted since the rule changes . In the 2016 draft , one of the Top -- 10 players that was declared eligible for NCAA play in 2016 , Thon Maker , decided to enter the draft instead as a post-graduate from Orangeville Prep in Orangeville , Ontario , Canada due to him originally declaring himself as eligible for college in 2015 . Thon would also mark the first player to be drafted directly from a Canadian high school , as well as the second player to enter as a post-graduate . He 'd also be the first high schooler to be drafted in the first round since 2005 , being drafted by the Milwaukee Bucks with the tenth pick in the draft , thus becoming the first high school lottery pick since 2005 . Most recently , in the 2018 draft , both Anfernee Simons and Thon 's brother , Matur Maker , are also looking to be drafted in the NBA , with Simons being a postgraduate and Maker 's decision relating to him being held back a year .

    While most executive agencies have a single director , administrator , or secretary appointed by the President of the United States , independent agencies ( in the narrower sense of being outside presidential control ) almost always have a commission , board , or similar collegial body consisting of five to seven members who share power over the agency . ( This is why many independent agencies include the word `` Commission '' or `` Board '' in their name . ) The president appoints the commissioners or board members , subject to Senate confirmation , but they often serve terms that are staggered and longer than a four - year presidential term , meaning that most presidents will not have the opportunity to appoint all the commissioners of a given independent agency . The president can normally designate which commissioner will serve as the chairperson . Normally there are statutory provisions limiting the president 's authority to remove commissioners , typically for incapacity , neglect of duty , malfeasance , or other good cause . In addition , most independent agencies have a statutory requirement of bipartisan membership on the commission , so the president can not simply fill vacancies with members of his own political party .

This all turns out to be for naught when Francis ' delinquent friends come over and trash the house . Although they manage to fix it , Malcolm gets a head injury from broken shelves ( thanks to Hal buying cheap ones ) and they try to find a way to pay the medical bill of $400 for him so Hal and Lois ca n't find out , so he convinces Malcolm 's teacher Caroline Miller ( Catherine Lloyd Burns ) to pay him off .

    The Great Wall stretches from Dandong in the east to Lop Lake in the west , along an arc that roughly delineates the southern edge of Inner Mongolia . A comprehensive archaeological survey , using advanced technologies , has concluded that the Ming walls measure 8,850 km ( 5,500 mi ) . This is made up of 6,259 km ( 3,889 mi ) sections of actual wall , 359 km ( 223 mi ) of trenches and 2,232 km ( 1,387 mi ) of natural defensive barriers such as hills and rivers . Another archaeological survey found that the entire wall with all of its branches measures out to be 21,196 km ( 13,171 mi ) . Today , the Great Wall is generally recognized as one of the most impressive architectural feats in history .

    The history of Hawaii describes the era of human settlements in the Hawaiian Islands . That history begins sometime between 124 and 800 CE , with some theories dating the earliest Polynesian settlements to the 10th or even 13th century .

    Cell nuclei contain most of the cell 's genetic material , organized as multiple long linear DNA molecules in complex with a large variety of proteins , such as histones , to form chromosomes . The genes within these chromosomes are the cell 's nuclear genome and are structured in such a way to promote cell function . The nucleus maintains the integrity of genes and controls the activities of the cell by regulating gene expression -- the nucleus is , therefore , the control center of the cell . The main structures making up the nucleus are the nuclear envelope , a double membrane that encloses the entire organelle and isolates its contents from the cellular cytoplasm , and the nuclear matrix ( which includes the nuclear lamina ) , a network within the nucleus that adds mechanical support , much like the cytoskeleton , which supports the cell as a whole .

    Between 1877 and 1878 , Oscar Hertwig published several studies on the fertilization of sea urchin eggs , showing that the nucleus of the sperm enters the oocyte and fuses with its nucleus . This was the first time it was suggested that an individual develops from a ( single ) nucleated cell . This was in contradiction to Ernst Haeckel 's theory that the complete phylogeny of a species would be repeated during embryonic development , including generation of the first nucleated cell from a `` monerula '' , a structureless mass of primordial mucus ( `` Urschleim '' ) . Therefore , the necessity of the sperm nucleus for fertilization was discussed for quite some time . However , Hertwig confirmed his observation in other animal groups , including amphibians and molluscs . Eduard Strasburger produced the same results for plants in 1884 . This paved the way to assign the nucleus an important role in heredity . In 1873 , August Weismann postulated the equivalence of the maternal and paternal germ cells for heredity . The function of the nucleus as carrier of genetic information became clear only later , after mitosis was discovered and the Mendelian rules were rediscovered at the beginning of the 20th century ; the chromosome theory of heredity was therefore developed .

    A common procedure is that after the cards have been shuffled , the dealer sets the cards face - down on the table near the player designated to make the cut , typically the player to the dealer 's right . That player initiates a cut of the deck by taking a contiguous range of cards off the top of the deck and placing it face - down on the table closer to the dealer ; the dealer completes the cut by taking the original bottom portion of the deck and placing it on top of the just - moved cards . Once the cut is complete , the dealer picks up the deck , straightens or `` squares '' it , and deals the cards .

Starring Sarah Jessica Parker ( as Carrie Bradshaw ) , Kim Cattrall ( as Samantha Jones ) , Kristin Davis ( as Charlotte York ) , and Cynthia Nixon ( as Miranda Hobbes ) , the quirky series had multiple continuing storylines that tackled relevant and modern social issues such as sexuality , safe sex , promiscuity , and femininity , while exploring the difference between friendships and romantic relationships . The deliberate omission of the better part of the early lives of the four women was the writers ' way of exploring social life -- from sex to relationships -- through each of their four very different , individual perspectives .

    Valinor ( Land of the Valar ) is a fictional location in J.R.R. Tolkien 's legendarium , the realm of the Valar in Aman . It was also known as the Undying Lands , along with Tol Eressëa and the outliers of Aman . This latter name is somewhat misleading ; the land itself , while blessed , did not cause mortals to live forever . However , only immortal beings were generally allowed to reside there . Exceptionally , the surviving bearers of the One Ring were allowed to dwell there for a time -- Bilbo and Frodo Baggins and Sam Gamgee -- and perhaps Gimli son of Glóin who , it is said , accompanied his friend Legolas to Valinor .

    Many physicians are slow to refer to hospice care , waiting until they are absolutely certain of a terminal prognosis . Some physicians believe that the patient must have a six - month prognosis or less to receive hospice care , while others are overly optimistic in their assessment of prognosis , presuming treatment will be more effective than it is . As a result , the majority of patients are referred to hospice in the very end - stages of their diseases , or choose that time to seek hospice care . The average length of stay in hospice before a patient dies was 26 days in 1994 and 19 days in 1998 . Although the length of average stays has since increased , the term of care continues to be underused . In 2004 the average stay was 57 days and the median length was 22 days . 33 % of hospice patients admitted in 2004 died within seven days of admission .

    During the first half of the twentieth century , John B. Watson devised methodological behaviorism , which rejected introspective methods and sought to understand behavior by only measuring observable behaviors and events . It was not until the 1930s that B.F. Skinner suggested that private events -- including thoughts and feelings -- should be subjected to the same controlling variables as observable behavior , which became the basis for his philosophy called radical behaviorism . While Watson and Ivan Pavlov investigated the stimulus - response procedures of classical conditioning , Skinner assessed the controlling nature of consequences and also its ' potential effect on the antecedents ( or discriminative stimuli ) that strengthens behavior ; the technique became known as operant conditioning .

    The script was originally written by Rod Serling , but underwent many rewrites before filming eventually began . Directors J. Lee Thompson and Blake Edwards were approached , but the film 's producer Arthur P. Jacobs , upon the recommendation of Charlton Heston , chose Franklin J. Schaffner to direct the film . Schaffner 's changes included an ape society less advanced -- and therefore less expensive to depict -- than that of the original novel . Filming took place between May 21 and August 10 , 1967 , in California , Utah and Arizona , with desert sequences shot in and around Lake Powell , Glen Canyon National Recreation Area . The film 's final `` closed '' cost was $5.8 million .

    Since at least the mid-19th century , numerous concepts for a union among Canada , Mexico and the United States of America , some including the Caribbean , the Central American and the South American countries , have been proposed , such as the North American Technate . Following the North American Free Trade Agreement ( NAFTA ) and the Maastricht Treaty going into effect there was speculation about the formation of a North American Union , similar to the European Union created by Maastricht , being a possible future step for the region . Several proposals for continental integration of North America advocated the creation of a union styled after the European Union , though many academic and business groups advocated less dramatic changes involving the formation of a customs union or common market .

    By 1912 , major motion - picture companies had set up production near or in Los Angeles . In the early 1900s , most motion picture patents were held by Thomas Edison 's Motion Picture Patents Company in New Jersey , and filmmakers were often sued to stop their productions . To escape this , filmmakers began moving out west , where Edison 's patents could not be enforced . Also , the weather was ideal and there was quick access to various settings . Los Angeles became the capital of the film industry .

    Calpurnia , nicknamed Cal , is the Finch family 's African - American housekeeper , whom the children love and Atticus deeply respects ( he remarks in her defense that she `` never indulged ( the children ) like most colored nurses '' ) . She is highly regarded by Atticus . She is an important figure in Scout 's life , providing discipline , instruction , and love . She also fills the maternal role for the children after their mother 's death . Calpurnia is a mother herself and raised her son , Zeebo , to adulthood . Calpurnia is one of the few black characters in the novel who is able to read and write , and it is she who taught Scout to write . She learned how to read from Miss Maudie 's aunt , Miss Buford , who taught her how to read out of Blackstone 's Commentaries , a book given to her . Aunt Alexandra despised Calpurnia because Alexandra believed that Calpurnia was not a `` maternal figure '' for Jem and Scout , especially for Scout .

    A new design for ten - shilling notes was introduced in 1961 , with the old notes ceasing to be legal tender in 1962 . These new series C notes were slightly longer and narrower , and were the first ten - shilling notes to feature a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on the front . The reverse design incorporated the logo of the Bank of England . In the late 1960s it was decided that future banknotes should feature a British historical figure on the reverse . The first such note was the series D £ 20 note , first issued in 1970 , featuring William Shakespeare . A design for a ten - shilling note featuring Walter Raleigh on the reverse was approved in 1964 but was never issued . Instead , in 1969 , as part of the process of decimalisation , a new fifty pence coin was introduced as a replacement for the ten - shilling note . The principal reason for the change was economy : the notes had an average lifetime of about five months whereas coins could last at least fifty years . The series C ten shilling notes ceased to be legal tender on 22 November 1970 .

    Filming began on May 21 , 1967 , and ended on August 10 , 1967 . Most of the early scenes of a desert - like terrain were shot in northern Arizona near the Grand Canyon , the Colorado River , Lake Powell , Glen Canyon and other locations near Page , Arizona Most scenes of the ape village , interiors and exteriors , were filmed on the Fox Ranch in Malibu Creek State Park , northwest of Los Angeles , essentially the backlot of 20th Century Fox . The concluding beach scenes were filmed on a stretch of California seacoast between Malibu and Oxnard with cliffs that towered 130 feet above the shore . Reaching the beach on foot was virtually impossible , so cast , crew , film equipment , and even horses had to be lowered in by helicopter . The home movies of Roddy McDowall ( on YouTube ) show makeup , the Ape Village set and the beach site / set - a wooden ramp was built around the point from Westward Beach to Pirates Cove for access to the beach set . The remains of the Statue of Liberty were shot in a secluded cove on the far eastern end of Westward Beach , between Zuma Beach and Point Dume in Malibu . As noted in the documentary Behind the Planet of the Apes , the special effect shot of the half - buried statue was achieved by seamlessly blending a matte painting with existing cliffs . The shot looking down at Taylor was done from a 70 - foot scaffold , angled over a 1 / 2 - scale papier - mache model of the Statue . The actors in Planet of the Apes were so affected by their roles and wardrobe that , when not shooting , they automatically segregated themselves with the species they were portraying .

    The vasomotor center ( VMC ) is a portion of the medulla oblongata that , together with the cardiovascular center and respiratory center , regulates blood pressure and other homeostatic processes . Vasomotor center is a fairly archaic term since this function relies not on a single brain structure ( `` center '' ) but rather represents a presympathetic network of interacting neurons . Upon increase in carbon dioxide level at central chemoreceptors , it stimulates the sympathetic system to constrict vessels . This is opposite to carbon dioxide in tissues causing vasodilatation , especially in the brain . Cranial nerves IX ( Glossopharyngeal nerve ) and X Vagus nerve both feed into the vasomotor centre and are themselves involved in the regulation of blood pressure . The localization of VMC was determined by Filipp Ovsyannikov in 1871 .

    While the phrase is commonly attributed to Queen Marie Antoinette , there is no record of her having said it . It appears in book six of Jean - Jacques Rousseau 's Confessions , his autobiography ( whose first six books were written in 1765 , when Marie Antoinette was nine years of age , and published in 1782 ) . The context of Rousseau 's account was his desire to have some bread to accompany some wine he had stolen ; however , feeling he was too elegantly dressed to go into an ordinary bakery , he recollected the words of a `` great princess '' :

    From 1673 to 1674 , the territories were once again briefly captured by the Dutch in the Third Anglo -- Dutch War , only to be returned to England at the Treaty of Westminster . In 1674 , Dutch navy captain Jurriaen Aernoutsz also briefly captured two forts in the French colony of Acadia , which he claimed as Dutch territory the new colony of New Holland . However , Aernoutsz 's appointed administrator , John Rhoades , quickly lost control of the territory after Aernoutsz himself left for Curaçao to seek out new settlers , and with effective control of Acadia remaining in the hands of France , Dutch sovereignty existed only on paper until the Netherlands surrendered their claim in the Treaties of Nijmegen .

    In anatomy , serous membrane ( or serosa ) is a smooth tissue membrane consisting of two layers of mesothelium , which secrete serous fluid . The inner layer that covers organs ( viscera ) in body cavities is called the visceral membrane . A second layer of epithelial cells of the serous membrane , called the parietal layer , lines the body wall . Between the two layers is a potential space , mostly empty except for a few milliliters of lubricating serous fluid that is secreted by the two serous membranes .

    Each heavy chain and light chain gene contains multiple copies of three different types of gene segments for the variable regions of the antibody proteins . For example , the human immunoglobulin heavy chain region contains 2 Constant ( Cμ and Cδ ) gene segments and 44 Variable ( V ) gene segments , plus 27 Diversity ( D ) gene segments and 6 Joining ( J ) gene segments . The light chains also possess 2 Constant ( Cμ and Cδ ) gene segments and numerous V and J gene segments , but do not have D gene segments . DNA rearrangement causes one copy of each type of gene segment to go in any given lymphocyte , generating an enormous antibody repertoire ; roughly 3 × 10 combinations are possible , although some are removed due to self reactivity .

    In 1858 Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace published a new evolutionary theory , explained in detail in Darwin 's On the Origin of Species ( 1859 ) . Unlike Lamarck , Darwin proposed common descent and a branching tree of life , meaning that two very different species could share a common ancestor . Darwin based his theory on the idea of natural selection : it synthesized a broad range of evidence from animal husbandry , biogeography , geology , morphology , and embryology . Debate over Darwin 's work led to the rapid acceptance of the general concept of evolution , but the specific mechanism he proposed , natural selection , was not widely accepted until it was revived by developments in biology that occurred during the 1920s through the 1940s . Before that time most biologists regarded other factors as responsible for evolution . Alternatives to natural selection suggested during `` the eclipse of Darwinism '' ( c. 1880 to 1920 ) included inheritance of acquired characteristics ( neo-Lamarckism ) , an innate drive for change ( orthogenesis ) , and sudden large mutations ( saltationism ) . Mendelian genetics , a series of 19th - century experiments with pea plant variations rediscovered in 1900 , was integrated with natural selection by Ronald Fisher , J.B.S. Haldane , and Sewall Wright during the 1910s to 1930s , and resulted in the founding of the new discipline of population genetics . During the 1930s and 1940s population genetics became integrated with other biological fields , resulting in a widely applicable theory of evolution that encompassed much of biology -- the modern synthesis .

    The mucosa - associated lymphoid tissue ( MALT ) , also called mucosa - associated lymphatic tissue , is a diffuse system of small concentrations of lymphoid tissue found in various submucosal membrane sites of the body , such as the gastrointestinal tract , oral passage , nasopharyngeal tract , thyroid , breast , lung , salivary glands , eye , and skin . MALT is populated by lymphocytes such as T cells and B cells , as well as plasma cells and macrophages , each of which is well situated to encounter antigens passing through the mucosal epithelium . In the case of intestinal MALT , M cells are also present , which sample antigen from the lumen and deliver it to the lymphoid tissue .

    According to figures gathered by Statista , a market data and statistics portal , while combined private labels sold more , in 2014 Blue Bell was the best - selling ice cream brand in the United States . The sales area is primarily concentrated in the Southern United States , and has been sold as far west as Las Vegas , as far north as Indianapolis and Denver , and as far east as Richmond , Virginia . Overall , this area comprises only 20 % of the United States . By comparison , each of Blue Bell 's top four competitors sells its products in over 86 % of the United States . To become one of the three biggest ice cream manufacturers , Blue Bell has consistently been the top seller in the majority of the markets the company has entered . For example , in its home state of Texas , the company has a 52 % market share . Within five months of its entry into Baton Rouge , Louisiana , the company had garnered 35 % of the ice cream market . People living outside the sales area can have the ice cream shipped to them ( although this has temporarily been halted while the company is ramping up production after the recalls ) , and former President George W. Bush ( a former Governor of Texas ) often had the ice cream shipped to Camp David during his administration . In 2006 and 2012 , astronauts aboard the International Space Station were also treated to Blue Bell ice cream `` to help out ( the crew 's ) happiness quotient . ''

    Unlike passive transport , which uses the kinetic energy and natural entropy of molecules moving down a gradient , active transport uses cellular energy to move them against a gradient , polar repulsion , or other resistance . Active transport is usually associated with accumulating high concentrations of molecules that the cell needs , such as ions , glucose and amino acids . If the process uses chemical energy , such as from adenosine triphosphate ( ATP ) , it is termed primary active transport . Secondary active transport involves the use of an electrochemical gradient . Examples of active transport include the uptake of glucose in the intestines in humans and the uptake of mineral ions into root hair cells of plants .

    The primary motor cortex ( Brodmann area 4 ) is a brain region that in humans is located in the dorsal portion of the frontal lobe . It is the primary region of the motor system and works in association with other motor areas including premotor cortex , the supplementary motor area , posterior parietal cortex , and several subcortical brain regions , to plan and execute movements . Primary motor cortex is defined anatomically as the region of cortex that contains large neurons known as Betz cells . Betz cells , along with other cortical neurons , send long axons down the spinal cord to synapse onto the interneuron circuitry of the spinal cord and also directly onto the alpha motor neurons in the spinal cord which connect to the muscles .

    At the primary motor cortex , motor representation is orderly arranged ( in an inverted fashion ) from the toe ( at the top of the cerebral hemisphere ) to mouth ( at the bottom ) along a fold in the cortex called the central sulcus . However , some body parts may be controlled by partially overlapping regions of cortex . Each cerebral hemisphere of the primary motor cortex only contains a motor representation of the opposite ( contralateral ) side of the body . The amount of primary motor cortex devoted to a body part is not proportional to the absolute size of the body surface , but , instead , to the relative density of cutaneous motor receptors on said body part . The density of cutaneous motor receptors on the body part is generally indicative of the necessary degree of precision of movement required at that body part . For this reason , the human hands and face have a much larger representation than the legs .

    Orographic lift occurs when an air mass is forced from a low elevation to a higher elevation as it moves over rising terrain . As the air mass gains altitude it quickly cools down adiabatically , which can raise the relative humidity to 100 % and create clouds and , under the right conditions , precipitation .

    Bruno is a 9 - year - old boy growing up during World War II in Berlin . He lives with his parents , his 12 - year - old sister Gretel and maids , one of whom is called Maria . After a visit by Adolf Hitler , Bruno 's father is promoted to Commandant , and the family has to move to `` Out - With '' because of the orders of `` The Fury '' ( Bruno 's naïve interpretation of the word ' Führer ' ) . Bruno is initially upset about moving to Out - With ( in actuality , Auschwitz ) and leaving his friends , Daniel , Karl , and Martin . From the house at Out - With , Bruno sees a camp in which the prisoners wear striped pyjamas . One day , Bruno decides to explore the strange wire fence . As he walks along the fence , he meets a Jewish boy named Shmuel , who he learns shares his birthday . Shmuel says that his father , grandfather , and brother are with him on this side of the fence , but he is separated from his mother . Bruno and Shmuel talk and become very good friends , although Bruno still does not understand very much about Shmuel and his side of the fence . Nearly every day , unless it 's raining , Bruno goes to see Shmuel and sneaks him food . As the meetings go on , and Shmuel gets more and more skinny , Bruno 's naïveté means he never realizes he is living beside a death camp .

    `` What Child Is This ? '' is a Christmas carol whose lyrics were written by William Chatterton Dix , in 1865 . At the time of composing the carol , Dix worked as an insurance company manager and had been struck by a severe illness . While recovering , he underwent a spiritual renewal that led him to write several hymns , including lyrics to this carol that was subsequently set to the tune of `` Greensleeves '' , a traditional English folk song . Although it was written in Great Britain , the carol is more popular in the United States than in its country of origin today .

    The Eagles had far and away the best team in the NFC and proved that right from the start . Possessing a high - powered offense which featured McNabb , Owens , and Brian Westbrook , as well as a bruising defense led by Pro Bowlers Trotter , Brian Dawkins , Lito Sheppard , and Michael Lewis , they steamrolled opponents on the way to a 13 -- 1 start to the season . After resting starters for the final two games , the 13 -- 3 Eagles soared past the Minnesota Vikings and the Atlanta Falcons in the playoffs , earning a trip to Super Bowl XXXIX in Jacksonville against the defending champion New England Patriots . The game was hard fought , but the Eagles fell 24 -- 21 , ending their magical season one score short of the ultimate goal . This season was considered the franchise 's most successful until their Super Bowl LII - winning 2017 season .

    Originally , Spielberg suggested Harrison Ford ; Lucas resisted the idea , since he had already cast the actor in American Graffiti , Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back , and did not want Ford to become known as his `` Bobby De Niro '' ( in reference to the fact that fellow director Martin Scorsese regularly casts Robert De Niro in his films ) . During an intensive casting process , Lucas and Spielberg auditioned many actors , and finally cast actor Tom Selleck as Indiana Jones . Shortly afterward pre-production began in earnest on Raiders of the Lost Ark . However , CBS refused to release Selleck from his contractual commitment to Magnum , P.I. ( which was gradually gaining momentum in the ratings ) , forcing him to turn down the role . One of CBS 's concerns was that shooting for Magnum P.I. conflicted with shooting for Raiders , both of which were to begin about the same time . However , Selleck was to say later in an interview that shooting for Magnum P.I. was delayed and did not actually begin until shooting for Raiders had concluded .

    The vacuum flask consists of two flasks , placed one within the other and joined at the neck . The gap between the two flasks is partially evacuated of air , creating a partial - vacuum which reduces heat conduction or convection . Heat transfer by thermal radiation may be minimized by silvering flask surfaces facing the gap but can become problematic if the flask 's contents or surroundings are very hot ; hence vacuum flasks usually hold contents below the boiling point of water . Most heat transfer occurs through the neck and opening of the flask , where there is no vacuum . Vacuum flasks are usually made of metal , borosilicate glass , foam or plastic and have their opening stoppered with cork or polyethylene plastic . Vacuum flasks are often used as insulated shipping containers .

    A patent does not give a right to make or use or sell an invention . Rather , a patent provides , from a legal standpoint , the right to exclude others from making , using , selling , offering for sale , or importing the patented invention for the term of the patent , which is usually 20 years from the filing date subject to the payment of maintenance fees . From an economic and practical standpoint however , a patent is better and perhaps more precisely regarded as conferring upon its proprietor `` a right to try to exclude by asserting the patent in court '' , for many granted patents turn out to be invalid once their proprietors attempt to assert them in court . A patent is a limited property right the government gives inventors in exchange for their agreement to share details of their inventions with the public . Like any other property right , it may be sold , licensed , mortgaged , assigned or transferred , given away , or simply abandoned .

    `` Piece by Piece '' is a song by American singer Kelly Clarkson taken from her seventh studio album of the same name . She co-wrote the track with its producer Greg Kurstin . A midtempo pop song about restoring someone 's faith in love and family relationships , Clarkson promulgated `` Piece by Piece '' as a sequel to the song `` Because of You '' ( 2004 ) but with a `` happy ending '' . After a discussion with her sister about their family life , she introspectively co-wrote the song in a first - person narrative to her father , whose neglect of his family was used as a juxtaposition to her husband 's unconditional love for her and their daughter , whom they both promised to never abandon .

The longest streak , 111 straight wins , started with a win against Creighton on November 23 , 2014 , and ended on March 31 , 2017 when a buzzer - beater at the end of the overtime caused a loss in the 2017 NCAA Final Four by Mississippi State .

    As it does in English , it can refer to either peace between two entities ( especially between man and God or between two countries ) , or to the well - being , welfare or safety of an individual or a group of individuals . Stendebach and Ringgren writes that a more thorough etymological analysis of Hebrew roots reveal that ' Lom was the basic root word for Shalom . The word shalom is also found in many other expressions and names . Its equivalent cognate in Arabic is salaam , sliem in Maltese , Shlama in Syriac - Assyrian and sälam in Ethiopian Semitic languages from the Proto - Semitic root Š - L-M .

    Ukraine borders with seven countries : Poland , Slovakia , Hungary , Romania , Moldova , Russia , and Belarus . The total length of the Ukrainian border is 6,992.98 km ( 4,345.24 mi ) . In reality Ukraine does not have real established and ratified borders with Russia , Belarus , and Moldova ( republics of the former Soviet Union ) . The borders with other countries were inherited from the Soviet border patrol service which was recreated into the Ukrainian after the fall of the Soviet Union .

    The only source of information on the First Temple is the Tanakh . According to the biblical sources , the temple was constructed under Solomon , during the united monarchy of Israel and Judah . The Bible describes Hiram I of Tyre who furnished architects , workmen and cedar timbers for the temple of his ally Solomon at Jerusalem . He also co-operated with Solomon in mounting an expedition on the Red Sea . 1 Kings 6 : 1 puts the date of the beginning of building the temple `` in the fourth year of Solomon 's reign over Israel '' . The conventional dates of Solomon 's reign are circa 970 to 931 BCE . This puts the date of its construction in the mid-10th century BCE . Schmid and Rupprecht are of the view that the site of the temple used to be a Jebusite shrine which Solomon chose in an attempt to unify the Jebusites and Israelites. 1 Kings 9 : 10 says that it took Solomon 20 years altogether to build the Temple and his royal palace . The Temple itself finished being built after 7 years . During the united monarchy the Temple was dedicated to Yahweh , the God of Israel , and housed the Ark of the Covenant . Rabbinic sources state that the First Temple stood for 410 years and , based on the 2nd - century work Seder Olam Rabbah , place construction in 832 BCE and destruction in 422 BCE ( 3338 AM ) , 165 years later than secular estimates .

    At Montreal , the participants agreed to freeze production of CFCs at 1986 levels and to reduce production by 50 percent by 1999 . After a series of scientific expeditions to the Antarctic produced convincing evidence that the ozone hole was indeed caused by chlorine and bromine from manmade organohalogens , the Montreal Protocol was strengthened at a 1990 meeting in London . The participants agreed to phase out CFCs and halons entirely ( aside from a very small amount marked for certain `` essential '' uses , such as asthma inhalers ) by 2000 in non-Article 5 countries and by 2010 in Article 5 ( less developed ) signatories . At a 1992 meeting in Copenhagen , the phase - out date was moved up to 1996 . At the same meeting , methyl bromide ( MeBr ) , a fumigant used primarily in agricultural production , was added to the list of controlled substances . For all substances controlled under the protocol , phaseout schedules were delayed for less developed ( ' Article 5 ( 1 ) ' ) countries , and phaseout in these countries was supported by transfers of expertise , technology , and money from non-Article 5 ( 1 ) Parties to the Protocol . Additionally , exemptions from the agreed schedules could be applied for under the Essential Use Exemption ( EUE ) process for substances other than methyl bromide and under the Critical Use Exemption ( CUE ) process for methyl bromide .

    Most sandstone is composed of quartz or feldspar because they are the most resistant minerals to weathering processes at the Earth 's surface , as seen in Bowen 's reaction series . Like uncemented sand , sandstone may be any color due to impurities within the minerals , but the most common colors are tan , brown , yellow , red , grey , pink , white , and black . Since sandstone beds often form highly visible cliffs and other topographic features , certain colors of sandstone have been strongly identified with certain regions .

  • Quartz arenites are sandstones that contain more than 90 % of siliceous grains . Grains can include quartz or chert rock fragments . Quartz arenites are texturally mature to supermature sandstones . These pure quartz sands result from extensive weathering that occurred before and during transport . This weathering removed everything but quartz grains , the most stable mineral . They are commonly affiliated with rocks that are deposited in a stable cratonic environment , such as aeolian beaches or shelf environments . Quartz arenites emanate from multiple recycling of quarts grains , generally as sedimentary source rocks and less regularly as first - cycle deposits derived from primary igneous or metamorphic rocks .

    In 1927 , the provisional Indian Olympic Committee formally became the Indian Olympic Association ( IOA ) ; its main tasks were to promote the development of sports in India , choose host cities for the national games , and send teams selected from the national games to the Summer Olympics . Thus , at the 1928 national games , it selected seven athletes to represent India at the next Summer Olympics , with Sondhi as manager . By this time , the Indian Hockey Federation ( IHF ) had also been established and it sent a hockey team to the Summer Olympics . The national hockey team and additional sportspersons were similarly sent to the 1932 Games ( four athletes and one swimmer ) and 1936 ( four athletes , three wrestlers , one Burmese weight - lifter ) , along with three officials headed by team manager Sondhi .

    According to tradition , the Nusaybah family took its name from a female companion or Sahabah of the Islamic prophet Muhammad named Nusaybah bint Ka'ab . She was a member of the Ansar who transferred their political power over Medina to the prophet . Nusaybah fought along with Muhammed in battle and was an early example of women taking leadership roles in Islam . Since the arrival of Islam in Jerusalem in the seventh century , the Sunni Muslim family has held the keys of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre alongside the Joudeh Al - Goudia family ( who were added to the original arrangement in the time of Saladin , the Muslim conqueror who seized the holy city from the Crusaders in 1187 ) . This arrangement emerged during the days of the second Sunni caliph Umar Ibn al - Khattab , who hoped to avoid clashes among rival Christian sects for control over the church . Although symbolic , the arrangement has provided the stability the Christians of the city needed , and is a symbol of tolerance and inter-religious harmony , and gave the Nusaybah family a visible role in Christian activities in Jerusalem , which include pilgrimages and visits by Western Christians .

    The Internet protocol suite ( TCP / IP ) was developed by Robert E. Kahn and Vint Cerf in the 1970s and became the standard networking protocol on the ARPANET , incorporating concepts from the French CYCLADES project directed by Louis Pouzin . In the early 1980s the NSF funded the establishment for national supercomputing centers at several universities , and provided interconnectivity in 1986 with the NSFNET project , which also created network access to the supercomputer sites in the United States from research and education organizations . Commercial Internet service providers ( ISPs ) began to emerge in the very late 1980s . The ARPANET was decommissioned in 1990 . Limited private connections to parts of the Internet by officially commercial entities emerged in several American cities by late 1989 and 1990 , and the NSFNET was decommissioned in 1995 , removing the last restrictions on the use of the Internet to carry commercial traffic .

    A boost in web users was triggered in September 1993 by NCSA Mosaic , a graphical browser which eventually ran on several popular office and home computers . This was the first web browser aiming to bring multimedia content to non-technical users , and therefore included images and text on the same page , unlike previous browser designs ; its founder , Marc Andreessen , also established the company that in 1994 , released Netscape Navigator , which resulted in one of the early browser wars , when it ended up in a competition for dominance ( which it lost ) with Microsoft Windows ' Internet Explorer . Commercial use restrictions were lifted in 1995 . The online service America Online ( AOL ) offered their users a connection to the Internet via their own internal browser .

    The primary catalyst for secession was slavery , especially Southern political leaders ' resistance to attempts by Northern antislavery political forces to block the expansion of slavery into the western territories . Another explanation for secession , and the subsequent formation of the Confederacy , was white Southern nationalism . The primary reason for the North to reject secession was to preserve the Union , a cause based on American nationalism . Most of the debate is about the first question , as to why some southern states decided to secede .

    Creatine is not an essential nutrient as it is naturally produced in the human body from the amino acids glycine and arginine . In the first step of the biosynthesis these two amino acids are combined by the enzyme arginine : glycine amidinotransferase ( AGAT , EC : 2.1. 4.1 ) to form guanidinoacetate , which is then methylated by guanidinoacetate N - methyltransferase ( GAMT , EC : 2.1. 1.2 ) , using S - adenosyl methionine as the methyl donor . Creatine itself can be phosphorylated by creatine kinase to form phosphocreatine , which is used as an energy buffer in skeletal muscles and the brain .

    The Lincoln Highway was one of the earliest transcontinental highways for automobiles across the United States of America . Conceived in 1912 by Indiana entrepreneur Carl G. Fisher , and formally dedicated October 31 , 1913 , the Lincoln Highway ran coast - to - coast from Times Square in New York City west to Lincoln Park in San Francisco , originally through 13 states : New York , New Jersey , Pennsylvania , Ohio , Indiana , Illinois , Iowa , Nebraska , Colorado , Wyoming , Utah , Nevada , and California . In 1915 , the `` Colorado Loop '' was removed , and in 1928 , a realignment relocated the Lincoln Highway through the northern tip of West Virginia .

    As Chicano studies programs began to be implemented at universities , it was necessary to provide infrastructure and support . In 1973 , the University of California , Berkeley recognized the need to provide quality library materials to support the Chicano studies programs . Chicano scholars also recognized the need to have a `` Chicano - controlled academic '' space . Researchers began to study the impact that these new programs had on students , finding that Mexican - American students responded positively to Chicano studies and also to bilingual classes . Many scholars felt that the philosophy of education in the United States at the time was `` inconsistent with the values of the Chicano movement '' and that Chicano studies needed to create tools for students to use in the real world and also a new type of research to solve problems . It was also important to find ways to recruit Chicano teachers and administration within the schools to support students and research . Further support for Chicano studies came in the form of the National Association for Chicana and Chicano Studies ( NACCS ) which was created in 1972 in San Antonio , Texas . The NACCS allows scholars in Chicano studies to exchange ideas , share research , communicate and it also has an annual conference . The conferences were important to help bring together scholars and legitimize Chicano studies , since other disciplines have similar annual conferences .

Yunus has received several other national and international honours . He received the United States Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2009 and the Congressional Gold Medal in 2010 .

    Infiltration is the process by which water on the ground surface enters the soil . Infiltration rate in soil science is a measure of the rate at which soil is able to absorb rainfall or irrigation . It is most often measured in millimetres per hour or inches per hour . The rate decreases as the soil becomes saturated . If the precipitation rate exceeds the infiltration rate , runoff will usually occur unless there is some physical barrier . It is related to the saturated hydraulic conductivity of the near - surface soil . The rate of infiltration can be measured using an infiltrometer .

  • Display : The Explorer version of Google Glass uses a liquid crystal on silicon ( LCoS ) ( based on an LCoS chip from Himax ) , field - sequential color system , LED illuminated display . The display 's LED illumination is first P - polarized and then shines through the in - coupling polarizing beam splitter ( PBS ) to the LCoS panel . The panel reflects the light and alters it to S - polarization at active pixel sensor sites . The in - coupling PBS then reflects the S - polarized areas of light at 45 ° through the out - coupling beam splitter to a collimating reflector at the other end . Finally , the out - coupling beam splitter ( which is a partially reflecting mirror , not a polarizing beam splitter ) reflects the collimated light another 45 ° and into the wearer 's eye .

    Around September , with the sun fast retreating south , the northern land mass of the Indian subcontinent begins to cool off rapidly . With this air pressure begins to build over northern India , the Indian Ocean and its surrounding atmosphere still holds its heat . This causes the cold wind to sweep down from the Himalayas and Indo - Gangetic Plain towards the vast spans of the Indian Ocean south of the Deccan peninsula . This is known as the Northeast Monsoon or Retreating Monsoon .

    Relevant dates include 117 CE , when the Empire was at its greatest territorial extent , and the accession of Diocletian in 284 . Irreversible major territorial loss , however , began in 376 with a large - scale irruption of Goths and others . In 395 , after winning two destructive civil wars , Theodosius I died , leaving a collapsing field army and the Empire , still plagued by Goths , divided between his two incapable sons . By 476 when Odoacer deposed the Emperor Romulus , the Western Roman Emperor wielded negligible military , political , or financial power and had no effective control over the scattered Western domains that could still be described as Roman . Invading barbarians had established their own power in most of the area of the Western Empire . While its legitimacy lasted for centuries longer and its cultural influence remains today , the Western Empire never had the strength to rise again .

    In photosynthesis , the light - dependent reactions take place on the thylakoid membranes . The inside of the thylakoid membrane is called the lumen , and outside the thylakoid membrane is the stroma , where the light - independent reactions take place . The thylakoid membrane contains some integral membrane protein complexes that catalyze the light reactions . There are four major protein complexes in the thylakoid membrane : Photosystem II ( PSII ) , Cytochrome b6f complex , Photosystem I ( PSI ) , and ATP synthase . These four complexes work together to ultimately create the products ATP and NADPH .

  • In a small percentage of cases , Down syndrome is caused by a rearrangement of chromosomal material between chromosome 21 and another chromosome . As a result , a person has the usual two copies of chromosome 21 , plus extra material from chromosome 21 attached to another chromosome . These cases are called translocation Down syndrome . Researchers believe that extra copies of genes on chromosome 21 disrupt the course of normal development , causing the characteristic features of Down syndrome and the increased risk of medical problems associated with this disorder .

    The founder of the Mughal empire , Babur , described his favourite type of garden as a charbagh . They use the term bāgh , baug , bageecha or bagicha for garden . This word developed a new meaning in India , as Babur explains ; India lacked the fast - flowing streams required for the Central Asian charbagh . The Agra garden , which was renamed after Partition of India as the Ram Bagh , since it lied in Hindu majority portion is thought to have been the first charbagh . India , Bangladesh and Pakistan have a number of Mughal gardens which differ from their Central Asian predecessors with respect to `` the highly disciplined geometry '' . An early textual references about Mughal gardens are found in the memoirs and biographies of the Mughal emperors , including those of Babur , Humayun and Akbar . Later references are found from `` the accounts of India '' written by various European travellers ( Bernier for example ) . The first serious historical study of Mughal gardens was written by Constance Villiers - Stuart , with the title Gardens of the Great Mughals ( 1913 ) . Her husband was a Colonel in Britain 's Indian army . This gave her a good network of contacts and an opportunity to travel . During their residence at Pinjore Gardens , Mrs. Villiers - Stuart also had an opportunity to direct the maintenance of an important Mughal garden . Her book makes reference to the forthcoming design of a garden in the Government House at New Delhi ( now known as Rashtrapati Bhavan ) . She was consulted by Edwin Lutyens , and this may have influenced his choice of Mughal style for this project . Recent scholarly work on the history of Mughal gardens has been carried out under the auspicious guidance of Dumbarton Oaks ( including Mughal Gardens : Sources , Places , Representations , and Prospects edited by James L. Wescoat , Jr. and Joachim Wolschke - Bulmahn ) and the Smithsonian Institution . Some examples of Mughal gardens are Shalimar Gardens ( Lahore ) , Lalbagh Fort at Dhaka , and Shalimar Bagh ( Srinagar ) .

    Sympathetic nervous system stimulation causes vasoconstriction of most blood vessels , including many of those in the skin , the digestive tract , and the kidneys . This occurs as a result of activation of alpha - 1 adrenergic receptors by norepinephrine released by post-ganglionic sympathetic neurons . These receptors exist throughout the vasculature of the body but are inhibited and counterbalanced by beta - 2 adrenergic receptors ( stimulated by epinephrine release from the adrenal glands ) in the skeletal muscles , the heart , the lungs , and the brain during a sympathoadrenal response . The net effect of this is a shunting of blood away from the organs not necessary to the immediate survival of the organism and an increase in blood flow to those organs involved in intense physical activity .

    After crossing Cuba near Menelao Mora , Hurricane Charley accelerated to the north - northeast , toward the southwest coast of Florida in response to the approach of an unseasonal mid-tropospheric trough . Charley passed over the Dry Tortugas at 1200 UTC on August 13 , with maximum winds of about 110 mph ( 180 km / h ) . The strike occurred only 22 hours after Tropical Storm Bonnie made landfall on St. Vincent Island , marking the first time two tropical cyclones hit the same state within a 24 - hour period . Then Charley rapidly intensified , strengthening from a 110 mph ( 180 km / h ) hurricane with a minimum central barometric pressure of 965 mbar ( hPa ; 28.50 inHg ) to a 145 mph ( 233 km / h ) hurricane with a pressure of 947 mbar ( hPa ; 27.96 inHg ) in just three hours . It continued to strengthen as it turned more to the northeast , and made landfall near the island of Cayo Costa , Florida as a 150 mph ( 240 km / h ) Category 4 hurricane with a pressure of 941 mbar ( hPa ; 27.79 inHg ) at approximately 1945 UTC on August 13 . An hour later , the hurricane struck Punta Gorda as a 145 mph ( 233 km / h ) storm and then passed up through Port Charlotte . However , the eye had shrunk before landfall , limiting the most powerful winds to an area within 7 mi ( 11 km ) of the center .

    Created by directors and screenwriters Ron Clements and John Musker , Ursula is based on the sea witch character who appears in the fairy tale `` The Little Mermaid '' by Hans Christian Andersen . However , her minor role was greatly expanded into that of a much more prominent villain for the film . Disney had struggled to cast Ursula for a year , during which the role was well sought after by several coveted television actresses at the time . Clements and Musker disagreed with lyricist Howard Ashman about who should voice the character . While the directors had written the role with Bea Arthur in mind , Ashman intended to offer it to soap opera star Joan Collins ; both actresses rejected the part . When Ashman cast his second choice , Broadway actress Elaine Stritch , as Ursula , both stage veterans disagreed about the manner in which Ursula 's song `` Poor Unfortunate Souls '' would be performed , and Pat Carroll was finally hired to replace Stritch after Ashman fired her . Deepening her own voice for the role , Carroll based her performance on a combination of Shakespearean actresses and car salespeople .

    In biology , cell theory is the historic scientific theory , now universally accepted , that living organisms are made up of cells . Cells are the basic unit of structure in all organisms and also the basic unit of reproduction . With continual improvements made to microscopes over time , magnification technology advanced enough to discover cells in the 17th century . This discovery is largely attributed to Robert Hooke , and began the scientific study of cells , also known as cell biology . Over a century later , many debates about cells began amongst scientists . Most of these debates involved the nature of cellular regeneration , and the idea of cells as a fundamental unit of life . Cell theory was eventually formulated in 1839 . This is usually credited to Matthias Schleiden and Theodor Schwann . However , many other scientists like Rudolf Virchow contributed to the theory .

    Work on the new mint began in August 1967 with the construction of a blank treatment plant and plant for striking . This first phase of the mint was officially opened on 17 December 1968 by the royal attendance of Queen Elizabeth II , Prince Philip and their son Prince Charles . Originally there were fears that the Royal family would face protests because of the Investiture of Prince Charles as the Prince of Wales ; however , such protests failed to materialise . The second phase of construction began in 1973 and included the addition of a means to mint coins from virgin metals completing the full minting process . Upon completion the final cost for the land , buildings and plant came to £ 8 million . Coin minting and production gradually shifted to the new site over the next seven years until the last coin , a gold sovereign , was struck in London in November 1975 . In an attempt to consolidate all previous coin - related acts , the Coinage Act of 1971 was passed , which among other things effectively abolished the individual role of Master of the Mint . Under this act , the Chancellor of the Exchequer took over the role , with a Deputy Master being appointed by the Treasury to exercise all the powers and duties of the Master within the mint .

    The Royal Mint is a government - owned mint that produces coins for the United Kingdom . Operating under the name Royal Mint Ltd , the mint is a limited company that is wholly owned by Her Majesty 's Treasury and is under an exclusive contract to supply all the nation 's coinage . As well as minting circulating coins for use domestically and internationally , the mint also produces planchets , commemorative coins , various types of medals and precious metal bullion . The mint exports to an average of 60 countries a year , making up 70 % of its total sales . Formed over 1,100 years ago , the mint was historically part of a series of mints that became centralised to produce coins for the Kingdom of England , all of Great Britain and eventually most of the British Empire . The original London mint from which the Royal Mint is the successor , was established in 886 AD and operated within the Tower of London for approximately 800 years before moving to what is now called Royal Mint Court where it remained until the 1960s . As Britain followed the rest of the world in decimalising its currency , the Mint moved from London to a new 38 acres ( 15 ha ) plant in Llantrisant , Wales where it has remained since .

    The Qur'an admonishes Muslim women to dress modestly and cover their breasts and genitals but it does n't require covering the head . The Qur'an explicitly states that `` O wives of the Prophet , you are not like anyone among women '' and as such has separate rules specifically for the wives of the Prophet . Wearing hijab , or al - khimar , is considered by some to be obligatory in Islam , as the quote states `` Tell the believing women to put their khimar over their bosoms '' , all the major Arab translations and dictionaries agree that `` al - khimar '' means a veil or scarf that a woman uses to cover her head , and `` over their bosoms '' implies women should cover their breasts , necks etc .

    Islamic dress in Europe , notably the variety of headdresses worn by Muslim women , has become a prominent symbol of the presence of Islam in western Europe . In several countries the adherence to hijab ( an Arabic noun meaning `` to cover '' ) has led to political controversies and proposals for a legal ban . The Netherlands government has decided to introduce a ban on face - covering clothing , popularly described as the `` burqa ban '' , although it does not only apply to the Afghan - model burqa . Other countries , such as France and Australia are debating similar legislation , or have more limited prohibitions . Some of them apply only to face - covering clothing such as the burqa , chador , boushiya , or niqab ; some apply to any clothing with an Islamic religious symbolism such as the khimar , a type of headscarf ( some countries already have laws banning the wearing of masks in public , which can be applied to veils that conceal the face ) . The issue has different names in different countries , and `` the veil '' or `` hijab '' may be used as general terms for the debate , representing more than just the veil itself , or the concept of modesty embodied in hijab .

    The starting five from each conference consists of three frontcourt players and two guards , selected by a combination of fan , player , and media voting . In 2017 , the NBA moved from a pure fan vote to a weighted process wherein fan voting accounts for 50 % of the total and player and media voting account for 25 % each . The league made the change in response to social media campaigns that resulted in mediocre players such as journeyman Zaza Pachulia nearly being voted as All - Star starters over more deserving players. , Prior to 2013 , fans selected two forwards and one center instead of generic frontcourt players . The NBA in 2003 began offering All - Star ballots in three languages -- English , Spanish and Chinese -- for fan voting of the starters .

The short - lived casting of Stritch as Ursula and her subsequent performance eventually inspired the animators to design the character as `` a tall , thin regal - looking sea witch '' based on manta rays and scorpion fish , complete with a long cape . At one point , Ursula had also been drawn with spikes to resemble a spinefish . Ursula 's appearance was largely inspired by American actor and drag queen Divine , who was best known for his frequent appearances in several films directed by filmmaker John Waters . Similarities were first drawn between the character and the actor after animator Rob Minkoff sketched `` a vampy overweight matron '' , to which Ashman responded , `` She looks like a Miami Beach matron ... playing Mah Jong by the pool . '' The character shares Divine 's signature eye makeup , jewelry and body type while originally sporting a Mohawk , the last of which was borrowed from the actor 's Pink Flamingo s ( 1972 ) character Babs Johnson . However , Minkoff had been drawing the character with a shark 's tale at the time . Clements eventually decided to place Ursula 's head on top of the body of an octopus instead , which ultimately resulted in her current design . The animators then studied the way in which octopuses move , explaining , `` There was a very kind of seductive and yet scary aspect '' , which they incorporated into the character 's own gait . The Pink Flamingos - inspired Mohawk was ultimately discarded because Disney felt that the hairstyle was `` too over-the - top '' for the film . Additionally , Ursula 's face was also inspired by that of Madame Medusa from Disney 's The Rescuers ( 1977 ) . According to The Gospel according to Disney : Faith , Trust , and Pixie Dust author Mark I. Pinsky , Ursula became `` the most grotesque characterization Disney ... have created for a female villain '' at that time .

    The two kingdoms of Upper and Lower Egypt were united c. 3000 BC , but each maintained its own regalia : the hedjet or White Crown for Upper Egypt and the deshret or Red Crown for Lower Egypt . Thus , the pharaohs were known as the rulers of the Two Lands , and wore the pschent , a double crown , each half representing sovereignty of one of the kingdoms . Ancient Egyptian tradition credited Menes , now believed to be the same as Narmer , as the king who united Upper and Lower Egypt . On the Narmer Palette the king is depicted wearing the Red Crown in one scene and the White crown in another , and thereby showing his rule over both Lands .

    A pattern of political and financial motivation , and a lack of understanding of the geography and ecology of the Everglades have plagued the history of drainage projects . The Everglades are a part of a massive watershed that originates near Orlando and drains into Lake Okeechobee , a vast and shallow lake . As the lake exceeds its capacity in the wet season , the water forms a flat and very wide river , about 100 miles ( 160 km ) long and 60 miles ( 97 km ) wide . As the land from Lake Okeechobee slopes gradually to Florida Bay , water flows at a rate of half a mile ( 0.8 km ) a day . Before human activity in the Everglades , the system comprised the lower third of the Florida peninsula . The first attempt to drain the region was made by real estate developer Hamilton Disston in 1881 . Disston 's sponsored canals were unsuccessful , but the land he purchased for them stimulated economic and population growth that attracted railway developer Henry Flagler . Flagler built a railroad along the east coast of Florida and eventually to Key West ; towns grew and farmland was cultivated along the rail line .

    The outcome was one of the most significant developments in a century of Anglo - French conflict . France ceded to Great Britain its territory east of the Mississippi . It ceded French Louisiana west of the Mississippi River ( including New Orleans ) to its ally Spain in compensation for Spain 's loss to Britain of Florida . ( Spain had ceded Florida to Britain in exchange for the return of Havana , Cuba . ) France 's colonial presence north of the Caribbean was reduced to the islands of Saint Pierre and Miquelon , confirming Great Britain 's position as the dominant colonial power in eastern North America .

    The British colonial government fell in the region of modern Nova Scotia after several disastrous campaigns in 1757 , including a failed expedition against Louisbourg and the Siege of Fort William Henry ; this last was followed by Indians torturing and massacring their British victims . William Pitt came to power and significantly increased British military resources in the colonies at a time when France was unwilling to risk large convoys to aid the limited forces that they had in New France , preferring to concentrate their forces against Prussia and its allies in the European theater of the war . Between 1758 and 1760 , the British military launched a campaign to capture the Colony of Canada ( part of New France ) . They succeeded in capturing territory in surrounding colonies and ultimately the city of Quebec ( 1759 ) . The British later lost the Battle of Sainte - Foy west of Quebec ( 1760 ) , but the French ceded Canada in accordance with the Treaty of Paris ( 1763 ) .

    On September 25 , 2013 , the USPS announced a 3 cent increase in the First Class postal rate , to be effective January 26 , 2014 , increasing the price of a stamp to 49 cents . Bulk mail , periodicals , and package service rates were also increased by 6 percent . A loss of US $5 billion during the 2013 fiscal year was the reason given for the increase .

    +

    The legislation which set the price to 49 cents was enacted as a temporary measure and as an `` exigent surcharge for mailing products and services '' . However , this legislation was set to expire in April 2016 . As a result , the Post Office retained one cent of the price change as a previously allotted adjustment for inflation , but the price of a first class stamp became 47 cents : for the first time in 97 years ( and for the third time in the agency 's history ) , the price of a stamp decreased .

    Scopes was found guilty and fined $100 ( $1395 in 2017 ) , but the verdict was overturned on a technicality . The trial served its purpose of drawing intense national publicity , as national reporters flocked to Dayton to cover the big - name lawyers who had agreed to represent each side . William Jennings Bryan , three - time presidential candidate , argued for the prosecution , while Clarence Darrow , the famed defense attorney , spoke for Scopes . The trial publicized the Fundamentalist -- Modernist Controversy , which set Modernists , who said evolution was not inconsistent with religion , against Fundamentalists , who said the word of God as revealed in the Bible took priority over all human knowledge . The case was thus seen as both a theological contest and a trial on whether `` modern science '' should be taught in schools .

    In 1989 , a third model was brought out by Land Rover to be produced in parallel with the other two : the Land Rover Discovery . To avoid possible confusion , the 1991 model year Ninety and the One Ten were renamed the `` Defender 90 '' and `` Defender 110 '' . These carried front badges that said `` Defender '' , with a badge on the rear of the vehicle saying `` Defender 90 '' or `` Defender 110 '' . The most recent model , from 2007 -- 2016 , still featured the space above the radiator for the badge but was blank . Instead it had `` Land Rover '' spelled across the leading edge of the bonnet in raised individual letters , in keeping with the Discovery and Freelander . At the rear was a new style of ' `` Defender '' badge with an underlining `` swoosh '' . On these last models there are no badges defining the wheelbase model of the vehicle .

Lenin had to persuade communist skeptics that `` state capitalism '' was a necessary step in achieving communism , while he himself harbored suspicions that the policy could be abused by private businessmen ( `` NEPmen '' ) .

    The Battle of Britain marked the first major defeat of Hitler 's military forces , with air superiority seen as the key to victory . Pre-war theories had led to exaggerated fears of strategic bombing , and UK public opinion was buoyed by coming through the ordeal . For the RAF , Fighter Command had achieved a great victory in successfully carrying out Sir Thomas Inskip 's 1937 air policy of preventing the Germans from knocking Britain out of the war . Churchill concluded his famous 18 June ' Battle of Britain ' speech in the House of Commons by referring to pilots and aircrew who fought the Battle : `` ... if the British Empire and its Commonwealth lasts for a thousand years , men will still say , ' This was their finest hour .

    In the United States and Canada , a political action committee ( PAC ) is a type of organization that pools campaign contributions from members and donates those funds to campaign for or against candidates , ballot initiatives , or legislation . The legal term PAC has been created in pursuit of campaign finance reform in the United States . This term is quite specific to all activities of campaign finance in the United States .

    The False Claims Act , also called the `` Lincoln Law '' ) is an American federal law that imposes liability on persons and companies ( typically federal contractors ) who defraud governmental programs . It is the federal Government 's primary litigation tool in combating fraud against the Government . The law includes a qui tam provision that allows people who are not affiliated with the government , called `` relators '' under the law , to file actions on behalf of the government ( informally called `` whistleblowing '' especially when the relator is employed by the organization accused in the suit ) . Persons filing under the Act stand to receive a portion ( usually about 15 -- 25 percent ) of any recovered damages . As of 2012 , over 70 percent of all federal Government FCA actions were initiated by whistleblowers . Claims under the law have typically involved health care , military , or other government spending programs , and dominate the list of largest pharmaceutical settlements . The government recovered $38.9 billion under the False Claims Act between 1987 and 2013 and of this amount , $27.2 billion or 70 % was from qui tam cases brought by relators .

    Chest pain is a common symptom encountered by emergency medical services . Aspirin increases survival in people with acute coronary syndrome and it is reasonable for EMS dispatchers to recommend it in people with no recent serious bleeding . Supplemental oxygen was used in the past for most people with chest pain but is not needed unless the oxygen saturations are less than 94 % or there are signs of respiratory distress . Entonox is frequently used by EMS personnel in the prehospital environment . However , there is little evidence about its effectiveness .

    This was meant to be a temporary measure , with the gold price of the dollar and the official rate of exchanges remaining constant . Revaluing currencies was the main purpose of this plan . No official revaluation or redemption occurred . The dollar subsequently floated . In December 1971 , the `` Smithsonian Agreement '' was reached . In this agreement , the dollar was devalued from $35 per troy ounce of gold to $38 . Other countries ' currencies appreciated . However , gold convertibility did not resume . In October 1973 , the price was raised to $42.22 . Once again , the devaluation was insufficient . Within two weeks of the second devaluation the dollar was left to float . The $42.22 par value was made official in September 1973 , long after it had been abandoned in practice . In October 1976 , the government officially changed the definition of the dollar ; references to gold were removed from statutes . From this point , the international monetary system was made of pure fiat money .

    Bill returns to the country mansion in his own car and is met at the gate by a man with a note warning him to cease and desist his inquiries . After reading a newspaper story about a beauty queen who died of a drug overdose , Bill views the body at the morgue and identifies it as Mandy . Bill is summoned to Ziegler 's house , where he is confronted with the events of the past night and day . Ziegler was one of those involved with the ritual orgy , and identified Bill and his connection with Nick . Ziegler claims that he had Bill followed for his own protection , and that the warnings made against Bill by the society are only intended to scare him from speaking about the orgy . However , he implies the society is capable of acting on their threats . Bill asks about the death of Mandy , whom Ziegler has identified as the masked woman at the party who 'd `` sacrificed '' herself to prevent Bill 's punishment , and about the disappearance of Nick , the piano player . Ziegler insists that Nick is safely back at his home in Seattle . Ziegler also says the `` punishment '' was a charade by the secret society to further frighten Bill , and it had nothing to do with Mandy 's death ; she was a hooker and addict and had died from another accidental drug overdose . Bill does not know if Ziegler is telling him the truth about Nick 's disappearance or Mandy 's death , but he says nothing further . When he returns home , Bill finds the rented mask on his pillow next to his sleeping wife . He breaks down in tears and decides to tell Alice the whole truth of the past two days . The next morning , they go Christmas shopping with their daughter . Alice muses that they should be grateful that they have survived , that she loves him and there is something they must do as soon as possible . When Bill asks what it is , she replies , `` Fuck '' .

    Phosphorus occurs most abundantly in nature as part of the orthophosphate ion ( PO ) , consisting of a P atom and 4 oxygen atoms . On land most phosphorus is found in rocks and minerals . Phosphorus rich deposits have generally formed in the ocean or from guano , and over time , geologic processes bring ocean sediments to land . Weathering of rocks and minerals release phosphorus in a soluble form where it is taken up by plants , and it is transformed into organic compounds . The plants may then be consumed by herbivores and the phosphorus is either incorporated into their tissues or excreted . After death , the animal or plant decays , and phosphorus is returned to the soil where a large part of the phosphorus is transformed into insoluble compounds . Runoff may carry a small part of the phosphorus back to the ocean . Generally with time ( thousands of years ) soils become deficient in phosphorus leading to ecosystem retrogression .

    Starting in the 1959 -- 1969 administration of President Charles de Gaulle and continuing until 1970 , France reduced its dollar reserves , exchanging them for gold at the official exchange rate , reducing US economic influence . This , along with the fiscal strain of federal expenditures for the Vietnam War and persistent balance of payments deficits , led U.S. President Richard Nixon to end international convertibility of the U.S. dollar to gold on August 15 , 1971 ( the `` Nixon Shock '' ) .

    +

    Congress passed the Gold Reserve Act on 30 January 1934 ; the measure nationalized all gold by ordering Federal Reserve banks to turn over their supply to the U.S. Treasury . In return the banks received gold certificates to be used as reserves against deposits and Federal Reserve notes . The act also authorized the president to devalue the gold dollar . Under this authority the president , on 31 January 1934 , changed the value of the dollar from $20.67 to the troy ounce to $35 to the troy ounce , a devaluation of over 40 % .

    During `` If These Dolls Could Talk '' , Jenna removes the bandage from her eye and cryptically begins to cry . Later , at school , she approaches the Liars at their lunch table and apologizes for gaining a hatred towards them , saying that when Hanna 's actions made her realize that people are capable of changing .

    The phrase `` to form a more perfect Union '' has been construed as referring to the shift to the Constitution from the Articles of Confederation . In this transition , the `` Union '' was made `` more perfect '' by the creation of a federal government with enough power to act directly upon citizens , rather than a government with narrowly limited power that could act on citizens ( e.g. , by imposing taxes ) only indirectly through the states . Although the Preamble speaks of perfecting the `` Union , '' and the country is called the `` United States of America , '' the Supreme Court has interpreted the institution created as a government over the people , not an agreement between the States . The phrase has also been interpreted to confirm that state nullification of any federal law , dissolution of the Union , or secession from it , are not contemplated by the Constitution .

    Green tree frogs are very docile and unafraid of humans . They are nocturnal and come out in early evenings to call ( in spring and summer ) and hunt for food . During the day , they find cool , dark , and moist areas , such as tree holes or rock crevices , in which to sleep . They are not a rainforest species , but make use of the rain that falls almost daily and collects on leaves and in crevices , to keep themselves moist . Their skin exudes a waxy coating that helps prevent evaporation . In dry periods , they avoid desiccation by concealing themselves in a cool spot , perhaps by burrowing , and enveloping themselves in a cocoon made of shed skin and mucus .

Later , it was developed as a cattle ranch , then , starting with the Civil War , the island served as a U.S. Army post . During the island 's Immigration Station period , the island held hundreds of thousands of immigrants , the majority from China , Japan , India , Mexico and the Philippines . The detention facility was considered ideal because of its isolated location , making it very easy to control immigrants , contain outbreaks of disease , and enforce the new immigration laws . The station is listed on the National Register of Historic Places under the title Angel Island , U.S. Immigration Station , and is a National Historic Landmark .

    In 1949 , after the founding of the State of Israel , the Defense Service Law gave the IDF the authority to enlist any citizen . Draftees would then be required to show up for the draft in accordance with the military 's decision to enlist them . Under this law , the period of service for men was 30 months and for women 18 months ( although in accordance with a temporary order from January 10 , 1968 , six additional months were added to the mandatory service , 36 months for men and 24 months for women respectively . ) The draft requirement applies to any citizen or permanent resident who has reached the age of 18 , and in accordance with the law , the individuals who are exempt from the draft are dismissed for various reasons , such as incapability , medical problems , military personnel needs , etc . Many of the soldiers who complete their mandatory military service are later obligated to serve in a reserve unit in accordance with the military 's needs .

    The electrical conduction system of the heart transmits signals generated usually by the sinoatrial node to cause contraction of the heart muscle . The pacemaking signal generated in the sinoatrial node travels through the right atrium to the atrioventricular node , along the Bundle of His and through bundle branches to cause contraction of the heart muscle . This signal stimulates contraction first of the right and left atrium , and then the right and left ventricles . This process allows blood to be pumped throughout the body .

    The enthalpy of fusion of a substance , also known as ( latent ) heat of fusion , is the change in its enthalpy resulting from providing energy , typically heat , to a specific quantity of the substance to change its state from a solid to a liquid , ( or resulting from the release of energy from a substance during transition from liquid to solid ) , at constant pressure . ( It is used to decribe the change in phase of matter of melting or freezing ) . This energy includes the contribution required to make room for any associated change in volume by displacing its environment against ambient pressure . The temperature at which the phase transition occurs is the melting point or the freezing point , according to context . By convention , the pressure is assumed to be 1 atm ( 101.325 kPa ) unless otherwise specified .

    At Apple 's Worldwide Developers Conference ( WWDC ) on June 8 , 2009 , it was announced that the 13 - inch unibody MacBook would be upgraded and re-branded as a MacBook Pro , leaving only the white polycarbonate MacBook in the MacBook line . It was also announced that the entire MacBook Pro line would use the non user - removable battery first introduced in the 17 - inch MacBook Pro . The updated MacBook Pro 13 - and the 15 - inch would each have up to a claimed seven hours of battery life , while the 17 - inch would keep its eight - hour capacity . Some sources even reported up to eight hours of battery life for the 13 - and 15 - inch MacBook Pros during casual use , while others reported around six hours . Like the 17 - inch MacBook Pro , Apple claims that they will last around 1,000 charge cycles while still containing 80 percent of their capacity . Graphics card options stayed the same from the previous release , although the 13 - inch and the base model 15 - inch , came with only the GeForce 9400M GPU . The screens were also improved , gaining a claimed 60 percent greater color gamut . All of these mid 2009 models also included a FireWire 800 port and all except the 17 - inch models would receive an SD card slot . The 17 - inch model would retain its ExpressCard / 34 slot . For the 13 - inch MacBook Pro , the Kensington lock slot was moved to the right side of the chassis . In August 2009 , Apple extended the `` matte '' anti-glare display option to the 15 - inch MacBook Pro .

    `` Ich bin ein Berliner '' ( German pronunciation : ( ˈʔɪç ˈbɪn ʔaɪn bɛɐ̯ˈliːnɐ ) , `` I am a Berliner '' ) is a quotation from a June 26 , 1963 , speech by U.S. President John F. Kennedy in West Berlin . It is widely regarded as the best - known speech of the Cold War and the most famous anti-communist speech . Kennedy aimed to underline the support of the United States for West Germany 22 months after Soviet - supported East Germany erected the Berlin Wall to prevent mass emigration to the West . The message was aimed as much at the Soviets as it was at Berliners and was a clear statement of U.S. policy in the wake of the construction of the Berlin Wall . Another phrase in the speech was also spoken in German , `` Lasst sie nach Berlin kommen '' ( `` Let them come to Berlin '' ) , addressed at those who claimed `` we can work with the Communists '' , a remark at which Nikita Khrushchev scoffed only days later .

    Gothic art emerged in Île - de-France , France , in the early 12th century at the Abbey Church of St Denis built by Abbot Suger . The style rapidly spread beyond its origins in architecture to sculpture , both monumental and personal in size , textile art , and painting , which took a variety of forms , including fresco , stained glass , the illuminated manuscript , and panel painting . Monastic orders , especially the Cistercians and the Carthusians , were important builders who disseminated the style and developed distinctive variants of it across Europe . Regional variations of architecture remained important , even when , by the late 14th century , a coherent universal style known as International Gothic had evolved , which continued until the late 15th century , and beyond in many areas .

    On a surface level the poem explores a violation of nature and the resulting psychological effects on the mariner and on all those who hear him . According to Jerome McGann the poem is like a salvation story . The poem 's structure is multi-layered text based on Coleridge 's interest in Higher Criticism . `` Like the Iliad or Paradise Lost or any great historical product , the Rime is a work of transhistorical rather than so - called universal significance . This verbal distinction is important because it calls attention to a real one . Like The Divine Comedy or any other poem , the Rime is not valued or used always or everywhere or by everyone in the same way or for the same reasons . ''

    The history of the Internet begins with the development of electronic computers in the 1950s . Initial concepts of wide area networking originated in several computer science laboratories in the United States , United Kingdom , and France . The US Department of Defense awarded contracts as early as the 1960s , including for the development of the ARPANET project , directed by Robert Taylor and managed by Lawrence Roberts . The first message was sent over the ARPANET in 1969 from computer science Professor Leonard Kleinrock 's laboratory at University of California , Los Angeles ( UCLA ) to the second network node at Stanford Research Institute ( SRI ) .

    In the kidneys , the enzyme AGAT catalyzes the conversion of two amino acids -- arginine and glycine -- into guanidinoacetate ( also called glycocyamine or GAA ) , which is then transported in the blood to the liver . A methyl group is added to GAA from the amino acid methionine by the enzyme GAMT , forming non-phosphorylated creatine . This is then dumped into the blood by the liver where it travels mainly to the muscle cells ( 95 % of the body 's creatine is in muscles ) , and to a lesser extent the brain , heart , and pancreas . Once inside the cells it is transformed into phosphocreatine by the enzyme complex creatine kinase , which makes it able to donate its phosphate group to convert adenosine diphosphate ( ADP ) into adenosine triphosphate ( ATP ) . This process is an important component of all vertebrates ' bioenergetic systems . For instance , while the human body only produces 250g of ATP daily , it recycles its entire body weight in ATP each day through creatine phosphate .

    The fight - or - flight response ( also called hyperarousal , or the acute stress response ) is a physiological reaction that occurs in response to a perceived harmful event , attack , or threat to survival . It was first described by Walter Bradford Cannon . His theory states that animals react to threats with a general discharge of the sympathetic nervous system , preparing the animal for fighting or fleeing . More specifically , the adrenal medulla produces a hormonal cascade that results in the secretion of catecholamines , especially norepinephrine and epinephrine . The hormones estrogen , testosterone , and cortisol , as well as the neurotransmitters dopamine and serotonin , also affect how organisms react to stress .

    The Atlantic Ocean occupies an elongated , S - shaped basin extending longitudinally between Eurasia and Africa to the east , and the Americas to the west . As one component of the interconnected global ocean , it is connected in the north to the Arctic Ocean , to the Pacific Ocean in the southwest , the Indian Ocean in the southeast , and the Southern Ocean in the south ( other definitions describe the Atlantic as extending southward to Antarctica ) . The Equatorial Counter Current subdivides it into the North Atlantic Ocean and the South Atlantic Ocean at about 8 ° N .

    The construction of Olympic and Titanic took place virtually in parallel , with Olympic 's keel laid down first on 16 December 1908 and Titanic 's on 31 March 1909 . Both ships took about 26 months to build and followed much the same construction process . They were designed essentially as an enormous floating box girder , with the keel acting as a backbone and the frames of the hull forming the ribs . At the base of the ships , a double bottom 5 feet 3 inches ( 1.60 m ) deep supported 300 frames , each between 24 inches ( 61 cm ) and 36 inches ( 91 cm ) apart and measuring up to about 66 feet ( 20 m ) long . They terminated at the bridge deck ( B Deck ) and were covered with steel plates which formed the outer skin of the ships .

    The New Mexico whiptail ( Cnemidophorus neomexicanus ) is a female - only species of lizard found in the southern United States in New Mexico and Arizona , and in northern Mexico in Chihuahua . It is the official state reptile of New Mexico . It is one of many lizard species known to be parthenogenic . Individuals of the species can be created either through the hybridization of the little striped whiptail ( C. inornatus ) and the western whiptail ( C. tigris ) , or through the parthenogenic reproduction of an adult New Mexico whiptail .

    +

    The New Mexico whiptail lizard is a crossbreed of a western whiptail , which lives in the desert , and the little striped whiptail , which favours grasslands . The lizard is a female - only species that reproduces by producing an egg through parthenogenesis . Despite reproducing asexually , and being an all - female species , the whiptail still engages in mating behavior with other females of its own species , giving rise to the common nickname `` lesbian lizards '' . A common theory is that this behavior stimulates ovulation , as those that do not `` mate '' do not lay eggs .

    The numerals for 4 ( IIII ) and 9 ( VIIII ) proved problematic ( among other things , they are easily confused with III and VIII ) , and are generally replaced with IV ( one less than 5 ) and IX ( one less than 10 ) . This feature of Roman numerals is called subtractive notation .

  • Clock faces that use Roman numerals normally show IIII for four o'clock but IX for nine o'clock , a practice that goes back to very early clocks such as the Wells Cathedral clock of the late 14th century . However , this is far from universal : for example , the clock on the Palace of Westminster in London ( aka `` Big Ben '' ) uses a `` normal '' IV .

    An acetate / ˈæsɪteɪt / is a salt formed by the combination of acetic acid with an alkaline , earthy , or metallic base . `` Acetate '' also describes the conjugate base or ion ( specifically , the negatively charged ion called an anion ) typically found in aqueous solution and written with the chemical formula C H O . The neutral molecules formed by the combination of the acetate ion and a positive ion ( called a cation ) are also commonly called `` acetates '' ( hence , acetate of lead , acetate of aluminum , etc . ) . The simplest of these is hydrogen acetate ( called acetic acid ) with corresponding salts , esters , and the polyatomic anion CH CO , or CH COO .

    In the late 19th century , the European imperial powers engaged in a major territorial scramble and occupied most of the continent , creating many colonial territories , and leaving only two fully independent states : Ethiopia ( known to Europeans as `` Abyssinia '' ) , and Liberia . Egypt and Sudan were never formally incorporated into any European colonial empire ; however , after the British occupation of 1882 , Egypt was effectively under British administration until 1922 .

    The Peak 2 Peak Gondola is a tri-cable gondola lift located in Whistler , British Columbia that links Whistler Mountain 's Roundhouse Lodge with Blackcomb Mountain 's Rendezvous Lodge . It is the first lift to join the two side - by - side mountains . It held the world record for the longest free span between ropeway towers -- 3.03 kilometres ( 1.88 miles ) until 2017 when the Eibsee Cable Car exceeded it by 189m . It is still the highest point above the ground -- 436 metres ( 1,430 feet . ) ( A temporary aerial tramway in Switzerland used between 1979 and 1986 had larger span . ) The Peak 2 Peak Gondola was built by the Doppelmayr Garaventa Group in 2007 and 2008 at a cost of CDN $51 million . The Peak 2 Peak Gondola is the first Doppelmayr `` 3S '' tri-cable lift in North America ; there are four similar but smaller lifts in Europe which were built in 1991 , 1994 , 2002 , 2004 and 2010 in Switzerland , Austria , France and Germany . Whistler - Blackcomb has touted the gondola as an iconic attraction and uses it to transport skiers in the winter months as well as sightseers year round .

    The oil and gas industry is usually divided into three major sectors : upstream ( or exploration and production - E&P ) , midstream and downstream . The upstream sector includes searching for potential underground or underwater crude oil and natural gas fields , drilling exploratory wells , and subsequently drilling and operating the wells that recover and bring the crude oil or raw natural gas to the surface . There has been a significant shift toward including unconventional gas as a part of the upstream sector , and corresponding developments in liquefied natural gas ( LNG ) processing and transport .

    The Confederate States Army ( C.S.A. ) was the military land force of the Confederate States of America ( Confederacy ) during the American Civil War ( 1861 - 1865 ) . On February 28 , 1861 , the Provisional Confederate Congress established a provisional volunteer army and gave control over military operations and authority for mustering state forces and volunteers to the newly chosen Confederate president , Jefferson Davis ( 1808 - 1889 ) . Davis was a graduate of the U.S. Military Academy on the Hudson River at West Point , New York , and colonel of a volunteer regiment during the Mexican -- American War ( 1846 - 1848 ) . He had also been a United States Senator from Mississippi and U.S. Secretary of War in the administration of 14th President Franklin Pierce ( 1853 - 1857 ) . On March 1 , 1861 , Davis assumed control of the military situation at Charleston , South Carolina on behalf of the Confederate States government , where South Carolina state militia threatened to seize Fort Sumter , an island fortification in Charleston harbor from the small U.S. Army garrison . By March 1861 , the Provisional Confederate Congress expanded the provisional forces and established a more permanent Confederate States Army .

    Like most other whiptail lizards , the New Mexico whiptail is diurnal and insectivorous . They are wary , energetic , and fast moving , darting for cover if approached . They are found in a wide variety of semi-arid habitats , including grassland , rocky areas , shrubland , or mountainside woodlands . Reproduction occurs through parthenogenesis , with up to four unfertilized eggs being laid in mid summer , and hatching approximately eight weeks later .

He retired from coaching after the 1967 season with 324 wins , including six playoff wins . Twenty - eight years later , Halas was surpassed by Don Shula . Shula retired at the end of the 1995 season , after amassing 328 regular season wins and 19 playoff wins .

    The hybridization of these species prevents healthy males from forming , whereas males exist in both parent species ( see Sexual differentiation ) . Parthenogenesis allows the resulting all - female population to reproduce and thus evolve into a unique species capable of reproduction . This combination of interspecific hybridization and parthenogenesis exists as a reproductive strategy in several species of whiptail lizard within the Cnemidophorus genus to which the New Mexico whiptail belongs .

    Jonathan Larson focused on composing Rent in the early 1990s , waiting tables at the Moondance Diner to support himself . Over the course of years , Larson wrote hundreds of songs and made many drastic changes to the show , which in its final incarnation contained 42 songs . In the fall of 1992 , Larson approached James Nicola , artistic director of New York Theatre Workshop , with a tape and copy of Rent 's script . When Rent had its first staged reading at New York Theatre Workshop in March 1993 , it became evident that , despite its very promising material and moving musical numbers , many structural problems needed to be addressed , including its cumbersome length and overly complex plot .

    Within thermodynamics , a physical property is any property that is measurable , and whose value describes a state of a physical system . Some constants , such as the ideal gas constant , R , do not describe the state of a system , and so are not properties . On the other hand , some constants , such as K ( the freezing point depression constant , or cryoscopic constant ) , depend on the identity of a substance , and so may be considered to describe the state of a system , and so may be considered physical properties .

    The film is set in Los Angeles in the then - future of 1996 . Harley Davidson ( Mickey Rourke ) , dressed in biker gear , with ultra-short dyed hair , hears from the radio about a dangerous new street drug named `` Crystal Dream '' . ( The significance of this street drug does not become clear until later . ) Harley goes into a rough bar and sees a cowboy - looking fellow ( Don Johnson wearing a beard , cowboy hat and boots ) . He has scammed a fellow in a pool game but has to use strong measures when the fellow refuses payment . Harley helps him in this . We learn that they are old friends ( later we learn the name he goes by is The Marlboro Man . ) They visit a blues ( old jazz ? ) bar in Burbank , which they both hold special . They go into a back room and meet Jack Daniels , an extremely - heavily - muscled lad , who immediately goes to fight Harley due to an old feud over a woman . After a manly exchange of blows and body slams , Harley tells him that he knows that the woman loves Jack and they make friends . Soon it is revealed that the bar is about to be demolished as the lease will not be renewed . `` Suits '' at Great Trust bank plan to replace it with a skyscraper . Harley , Marlboro , Jack and two friends decide to rob a bank to raise the money to ensure the bar 's survival . A comely waitress hooks up with Harley . Marlboro borrows Harley 's Harley and baits a motorcycle cop , with interesting results . In a bit of psychological revelation , we learn that he is in an intermittent amorous relationship with a beautiful woman , who tells him that she is going to settle down with another man , as she is not getting enough loving from him . He is conflicted by the news but later tells Harley that he is not the kind of man who has a wife . Harley arrives and takes her out for breakfast . An armored car is going down a street and meets a detour sign . Marlboro jumps on its back door and climbs to its roof ( a visual parallel of train robbers crawling on the roofs of boxcars in old western movies ) . The contents of the armored car is heisted in a well - thought - out scheme , but the escape of Harley / Marlboro 's gang is almost foiled by the appearance of a squad of black - trenchcoat - wearing ( a la Matrix ) machinepistol - firing soldiers . Jack drives a fiery motorcycle into the fray and allows them to escape . But they discover the goods they have stolen are a large amount of `` Crystal Dream '' , not money . Chance Wilder ( Tom Sizemore ) , president of the Great Trust branch , is obviously involved in drug dealing . Harley and Marlboro go to the bank . Showing considerable balls , Harley negotiates an exchange - the drugs for $2.5 M. The exchange goes down smoothly in a visually - fascinating airplane graveyard , but then the bank 's squad of soldiers finds them celebrating at the bar and it is not pretty , although Harley and Marlboro manage to escape with the money . In a running battle , Harley and Marlboro alternately flee and face off with steadily - declining elements of the squad until a final showdown in the penthouse suite of the Great Trust bank . The closing scene : Marlboro has gone back to rodeo bull - riding and Harley on his bike takes to the road , stopping only temporarily to pick up a ravishing and shapely hitchhiker who tells him she is going `` no place special '' , a destination that Harley promises to take her . Much of the film was filmed in and around Tucson , Arizona and the `` Boneyard '' at Davis - Monthan Air Force Base .

    The milling process removes material by performing many separate , small cuts . This is accomplished by using a cutter with many teeth , spinning the cutter at high speed , or advancing the material through the cutter slowly ; most often it is some combination of these three approaches . The speeds and feeds used are varied to suit a combination of variables . The speed at which the piece advances through the cutter is called feed rate , or just feed ; it is most often measured in length of material per full revolution of the cutter .

    Peptidoglycan , also known as murein , is a polymer consisting of sugars and amino acids that forms a mesh - like layer outside the plasma membrane of most bacteria , forming the cell wall . The sugar component consists of alternating residues of β - ( 1 , 4 ) linked N - acetylglucosamine ( NAG ) and N - acetylmuramic acid ( NAM ) . Attached to the N - acetylmuramic acid is a peptide chain of three to five amino acids . The peptide chain can be cross-linked to the peptide chain of another strand forming the 3D mesh - like layer . Peptidoglycan serves a structural role in the bacterial cell wall , giving structural strength , as well as counteracting the osmotic pressure of the cytoplasm . A common misconception is that peptidoglycan gives the cell its shape ; however , whereas peptidoglycan helps maintain the structural strength of the cell , it is actually the MreB protein that facilitates cell shape . Peptidoglycan is also involved in binary fission during bacterial cell reproduction .

      In government , the term authority is often used interchangeably with power . However , their meanings differ : while power is defined as `` the ability to influence somebody to do something that he / she would not have done '' , authority refers to a claim of legitimacy , the justification and right to exercise that power . For example , while a mob has the power to punish a criminal , for example by lynching , people who believe in the rule of law consider that only a court of law has the authority to punish a criminal legally as the law says .

      The excretory system is a passive biological system that removes excess , unnecessary materials from the body fluids of an organism , so as to help maintain internal chemical homeostasis and prevent damage to the body . The dual function of excretory systems is the elimination of the waste products of metabolism and to drain the body of used up and broken down components in a liquid and gaseous state . In humans and other amniotes ( mammals , birds and reptiles ) most of these substances leave the body as urine and to some degree exhalation , mammals also expel them through sweating .

      In plant anatomy , sieve tube elements , also called sieve tube members , are highly specialised type of elongated cell in the phloem tissue of flowering plants . The ends of these cells are connected with other sieve tube members , and together they constitute the sieve tube . The main function of the sieve tube is transport of carbohydrates , primarily sucrose , in the plant ( e.g. , from the leaves to the fruits and roots ) . Unlike the water - conducting xylem vessel elements that are dead when mature , sieve elements are living cells . They are unique in lacking a nucleus at maturity .

      Historically , no single shot can be cited as the first shot of the battle or the war . Shots were fired earlier at Lexington , Massachusetts where eight Americans were killed and a British soldier was slightly wounded , but accounts of that event are confused and contradictory , and it has been characterized as a massacre rather than a battle . The North Bridge skirmish did see the first shots by Americans acting under orders , the first organized volley by Americans , the first British fatalities , and the first British retreat .

      The Manhattan Project was a research and development undertaking during World War II that produced the first nuclear weapons . It was led by the United States with the support of the United Kingdom and Canada . From 1942 to 1946 , the project was under the direction of Major General Leslie Groves of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers . Nuclear physicist Robert Oppenheimer was the director of the Los Alamos Laboratory that designed the actual bombs . The Army component of the project was designated the Manhattan District ; `` Manhattan '' gradually superseded the official codename , Development of Substitute Materials , for the entire project . Along the way , the project absorbed its earlier British counterpart , Tube Alloys . The Manhattan Project began modestly in 1939 , but grew to employ more than 130,000 people and cost nearly US $2 billion ( about $22 billion in 2016 dollars ) . Over 90 % of the cost was for building factories and to produce fissile material , with less than 10 % for development and production of the weapons . Research and production took place at more than 30 sites across the United States , the United Kingdom , and Canada .

      Dallol is a cinder cone volcano in the Danakil Depression , northeast of the Erta Ale Range in Ethiopia . It has been formed by the intrusion of basaltic magma into Miocene salt deposits and subsequent hydrothermal activity . Phreatic eruptions took place here in 1926 , forming Dallol Volcano ; numerous other eruption craters dot the salt flats nearby . These craters are the lowest known subaerial volcanic vents in the world , at 45 m ( 150 ft ) or more below sea level . In October 2004 the shallow magma chamber beneath Dallol deflated and fed a magma intrusion southwards beneath the rift . An phreatic eruption occurred in January 2011 .

      Rooted in the basic curriculum -- the enkuklios paideia or `` education in a circle '' -- of late Classical and Hellenistic Greece , the `` liberal arts '' or `` liberal pursuits '' ( Latin liberalia studia ) were already so called in formal education during the Roman Empire . The first recorded use of the term `` liberal arts '' ( artes liberales ) occurs in De Inventione by Marcus Tullius Cicero , but it is unclear if he created the term . Seneca the Younger discusses liberal arts in education from a critical Stoic point of view in Moral Epistle 88 . The exact classification of the liberal arts varied however in Roman times , and it was only after Martianus Capella in the 5th century AD influentially brought the seven liberal arts as bridesmaids to the Marriage of Mercury and Philology , that they took on canonical form .

By this system , the day - to - day government and administration of areas both small and large was left in the hands of traditional rulers , who gained prestige and the stability and protection afforded by the Pax Britannica , at the cost of losing control of their external affairs , and often of taxation , communications , and other matters , usually with a small number of European `` advisors '' effectively overseeing the government of large numbers of people spread over extensive areas .

      The Spanish Civil War ( Spanish : Guerra Civil Española ) , widely known in Spain simply as The Civil War ( Spanish : La Guerra Civil ) or The War ( Spanish : La Guerra ) , took place from 1936 to 1939 . The Republicans , who were loyal to the democratic , left - leaning and relatively urban Second Spanish Republic , in an alliance of convenience with the Anarchists and Communists , fought against the Nationalists , a Falangist , Carlist , Catholic , and largely aristocratic conservative group led by General Francisco Franco . The war has often been portrayed as a struggle between democracy and fascism , particularly due to the political climate and timing surrounding it , but it can more accurately be described as a struggle between leftist revolution and rightist counter-revolution similar to the Finnish Civil War , the Russian Civil War , and the wars fought over the formation of the Hungarian and Slovak Soviet republics . In early 1939 , the Nationalists won , and Franco ruled over all of Spain until his death in November 1975 .

The activity increased in popularity after World War II , particularly in California , because many returning soldiers received technical training in the service . Many cars were prepared by bootleggers in response to Prohibition to enable them to avoid revenue agents ( `` Revenooers '' ) ; some police vehicles were also modified in response .

      Commander K.M. Nanavati vs. State of Maharashtra was a 1959 Indian court case where Commander Kawas Manekshaw Nanavati , a Naval Commander , was tried for the murder of Prem Ahuja , his wife 's lover . The incident received unprecedented media coverage and inspired several books and films such as the 1973 film Achanak and 2016 film Rustom . Commander Nanavati , accused under section 302 , was initially declared not guilty by a jury , but the verdict was dismissed by the Bombay High Court and the case was retried as a bench trial . This was among the last cases to be heard as a jury trial in India , as the government abolished jury trials soon after in most cases except for Parsis who still have Jury Trials for their Matrimonial Disputes . Nanavati was finally pardoned by Vijayalakshmi Pandit , newly appointed Governor of Bombay and sister of Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru .

      Basketball courts come in different sizes . In the National Basketball Association ( NBA ) , the court is 94 by 50 feet ( 28.7 by 15.2 m ) . Under International Basketball Federation ( FIBA ) rules , the court is minutely smaller , measuring exactly 28 by 15 metres ( 91.9 by 49.2 ft ) . In amateur basketball , court sizes vary widely . The baskets are always 10 feet ( 3.0 m ) above the floor ( except possibly in youth competition ) . Basketball courts have a three - point arc at both baskets . A basket made from behind this arc is worth three points ; a basket made from within this line , or with a player 's foot touching the line , is worth 2 points . The free - throw line , where one stands while taking a foul shot , is located within the three - point arc at 15 feet from the basket . A foul shot is worth 1 point , but if a shot is made from the foul line while in play it is still worth 2 points .

      Wallace is a Scottish surname derived from the Anglo - Norman French waleis , which is in turn derived from a cognate of the Old English wylisc ( pronounced `` wullish '' ) meaning `` foreigner '' or `` Welshman '' ( etymology ; see also Wallach and Walhaz ) . The original surname may have denoted someone from the former Kingdom of Strathclyde who spoke Cumbric , a close relative of the Welsh language , or possibly an incomer from Wales , or the Welsh Marches . The Kingdom of Strathclyde was originally a part of the Hen Ogledd , its people speaking a Brythonic language distinct from Scottish Gaelic and the English derived from Lothian . In modern times , in the 19th and 20th centuries , the surname has been used as an Americanization of numerous Ashkenazic Jewish surnames .

      The deuterocanonical books ( from the Greek meaning `` belonging to the second canon '' ) is a term adopted in 16th century by the Roman Catholic Church to denote those books and passages of the Christian Old Testament , as defined in 1546 by the Council of Trent , that were not found in the Hebrew Bible . The term distinguished these texts both from those that were termed protocanonical books , which were the books of the Hebrew canon ; and from the apocryphal books , which were those books of Jewish origin that were known sometimes to have been read in church as scripture but which the Council considered not to be canonical .

      In the biological sciences , nitrogenous bases are increasingly termed nucleobases because of their role in nucleic acids - their flat shape is particularly important when considering their roles as the building blocks of DNA and RNA . A set of five nitrogenous bases is used in the construction of nucleotides , which in turn build up the nucleic acids like DNA and RNA . These nitrogenous bases are adenine ( A ) , uracil ( U ) , guanine ( G ) , thymine ( T ) , and cytosine ( C ) . These nitrogenous bases hydrogen bond between opposing DNA strands to form the rungs of the `` twisted ladder '' or double helix of DNA or a biological catalyst that is found in the nucleotides . Adenine is always paired with thymine , and guanine is always paired with cytosine . These are known as base pairs . Uracil is only present in RNA , replacing thymine . Pyrimidines include thymine , cytosine , and uracil . They have a single ring structure . Purines include adenine and guanine . They have a double ring structure .

      Laika was found as a stray wandering the streets of Moscow . Soviet scientists chose to use Moscow strays since they assumed that such animals had already learned to endure conditions of extreme cold and hunger . This specimen was an eleven - pound mongrel female , approximately three years old . Another account reported that she weighed about 6 kg ( 13 lb ) . Soviet personnel gave her several names and nicknames , among them Kudryavka ( Russian for Little Curly ) , Zhuchka ( Little Bug ) , and Limonchik ( Little Lemon ) . Laika , the Russian name for several breeds of dogs similar to the husky , was the name popularised around the world . The American press dubbed her Muttnik ( mutt + suffix - nik ) as a pun on Sputnik , or referred to her as Curly . Her true pedigree is unknown , although it is generally accepted that she was part husky or other Nordic breed , and possibly part terrier . NASA refers to Laika as a `` part - Samoyed terrier . '' A Russian magazine described her temperament as phlegmatic , saying that she did not quarrel with other dogs . Vladimir Yazdovsky , who led the program of test dogs used on rockets , in a later publication wrote that `` Laika was quiet and charming '' .

      In Harry Potter and the Philosopher 's Stone , Voldemort 's manifestation is as a face on the back of Quirrell 's head , an effect achieved by computer generated imagery . Ian Hart , the actor who played Quirrell in the same film , provided the voice and the facial source for this character . Voldemort also appears in a scene in the Forbidden Forest where he is seen drinking the blood of a unicorn . As Voldemort 's face was altered enough by CG work , and Hart 's voice was affected enough , there was no confusion by Hart 's playing of the two roles . In that film , he was also shown in a flashback sequence when he arrived at the home of James and Lily Potter to kill them . In this scene Voldemort is played by Richard Bremmer , though his face is never seen . His next appearance would be in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets as the 16 - year - old Tom Marvolo Riddle ( portrayed by Christian Coulson ) .

Subsequently , the Titans go through the season undefeated while battling racial prejudice , before slowly gaining support from the community . Gerry even has his best friend Ray removed from the team because of his racism , following a game where he intentionally missed a block which consequently led to the near - season - ending injury of starting quarterback Jerry `` Rev '' Harris .

      If the data - set of a randomly selected representative sample is very unlikely relative to the null hypothesis ( defined as being part of a class of sets of data that only rarely will be observed ) , the experimenter rejects the null hypothesis concluding it ( probably ) is false . This class of data - sets is usually specified via a test statistic which is designed to measure the extent of apparent departure from the null hypothesis . The procedure works by assessing whether the observed departure measured by the test statistic is larger than a value defined so that the probability of occurrence of a more extreme value is small under the null hypothesis ( usually in less than either 5 % or 1 % of similar data - sets in which the null hypothesis does hold ) .

Though individual works are sometimes cited as being particularly noteworthy , here `` work '' refers to an author 's work as a whole . The Swedish Academy decides who , if anyone , will receive the prize in any given year . The academy announces the name of the chosen laureate in early October .

      Some critiques of symbolic interactionism are based on the assumption that it is a theory , and the critiques apply the criteria for a `` good '' theory to something that does not claim to be a theory . Some critics find the symbolic interactionist framework too broad and general when they are seeking specific theories . Symbolic interactionism is a theoretical framework rather than a theory ( see Stryker and Vryan , 2003 , for a clear distinction between the two as it pertains to interactionist - inspired conceptualizations ) can be assessed on the basis of effective conceptualizations . The theoretical framework , as with any theoretical framework , is vague when it comes to analyzing empirical data or predicting outcomes in social life . As a framework rather than a theory , many scholars find it difficult to use . Interactionism being a framework rather than a theory makes it impossible to test interactionism in the manner that a specific theoretical claim about the relationship between specific variables in a given context allows . Unlike the symbolic interactionist framework , the many theories derived from symbolic interactionism , such as role theory and the versions of Identity Theory developed by Stryker , and Burke and colleagues , clearly define concepts and the relationships between them in a given context , thus allowing for the opportunity to develop and test hypotheses . Further , especially among Blumerian processual interactionists , a great number of very useful conceptualizations have been developed and applied in a very wide range of social contexts , types of populations , types of behaviors , and cultures and subcultures .

      The Great Blizzard of 1888 helped demonstrate the benefits of an underground transportation system . A plan for the construction of the subway was approved in 1894 , and construction began in 1900 . The first underground line of the subway opened on October 27 , 1904 , almost 36 years after the opening of the first elevated line in New York City , which became the IRT Ninth Avenue Line . The fare was $0.05 and on the first day the trains carried over 150,000 passengers . The oldest structure still in use opened in 1885 as part of the BMT Lexington Avenue Line in Brooklyn and is now part of the BMT Jamaica Line . The oldest right - of - way , which is part of the BMT West End Line near Coney Island Creek , was in use in 1864 as a steam railroad called the Brooklyn , Bath and Coney Island Rail Road .

      In rugby union a scrum is a means of restarting play after a minor infringement . It involves up to eight players from each team , known as the pack or forward pack , binding together in three rows and interlocking with the free opposing teams forwards . At this point the ball is fed into the gap between the two forward packs and they both compete for the ball to win possession . Teams can be penalised for intentionally causing the scrum to collapse , and for not putting the ball into the scrum correctly . A scrum is most commonly awarded when the ball is knocked forward , or passed forward , or when a ball becomes trapped in a ruck or maul . Because of the physical nature of scrums , injuries can occur , especially in the front row .

      The Dust Bowl , also known as the Dirty Thirties , was a period of severe dust storms that greatly damaged the ecology and agriculture of the American and Canadian prairies during the 1930s ; severe drought and a failure to apply dryland farming methods to prevent wind erosion ( the Aeolian processes ) caused the phenomenon . The drought came in three waves , 1934 , 1936 , and 1939 -- 1940 , but some regions of the high plains experienced drought conditions for as many as eight years . With insufficient understanding of the ecology of the plains , farmers had conducted extensive deep plowing of the virgin topsoil of the Great Plains during the previous decade ; this had displaced the native , deep - rooted grasses that normally trapped soil and moisture even during periods of drought and high winds . The rapid mechanization of farm equipment , especially small gasoline tractors , and widespread use of the combine harvester contributed to farmers ' decisions to convert arid grassland ( much of which received no more than 10 inches ( 250 mm ) of precipitation per year ) to cultivated cropland .

      The ancient Greek and Roman philosophers and physicians associated old age with increasing dementia . It was not until 1901 that German psychiatrist Alois Alzheimer identified the first case of what became known as Alzheimer 's disease , named after him , in a fifty - year - old woman he called Auguste D. He followed her case until she died in 1906 , when he first reported publicly on it . During the next five years , eleven similar cases were reported in the medical literature , some of them already using the term Alzheimer 's disease . The disease was first described as a distinctive disease by Emil Kraepelin after suppressing some of the clinical ( delusions and hallucinations ) and pathological features ( arteriosclerotic changes ) contained in the original report of Auguste D. He included Alzheimer 's disease , also named presenile dementia by Kraepelin , as a subtype of senile dementia in the eighth edition of his Textbook of Psychiatry , published on 15 July , 1910 .

      Mendicant orders are , primarily , certain Christian religious orders that have adopted a lifestyle of poverty , traveling , and living in urban areas for purposes of preaching , evangelism , and ministry , especially to the poor . At their foundation these orders rejected the previously established monastic model . This foresaw living in one stable , isolated community where members worked at a trade and owned property in common , including land , buildings and other wealth . By contrast , the mendicants avoided owning property , did not work at a trade , and embraced a poor , often itinerant lifestyle . They depended for their survival on the goodwill of the people to whom they preached .

      In June 1919 , the Allies declared that war would resume if the German government did not sign the treaty they had agreed to among themselves . The government headed by Philipp Scheidemann was unable to agree on a common position , and Scheidemann himself resigned rather than agree to sign the treaty . Gustav Bauer , the head of the new government , sent a telegram stating his intention to sign the treaty if certain articles were withdrawn , including Articles 227 , 230 and 231 . In response , the Allies issued an ultimatum stating that Germany would have to accept the treaty or face an invasion of Allied forces across the Rhine within 24 hours . On 23 June , Bauer capitulated and sent a second telegram with a confirmation that a German delegation would arrive shortly to sign the treaty . On 28 June 1919 , the fifth anniversary of the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand ( the immediate impetus for the war ) , the peace treaty was signed . The treaty had clauses ranging from war crimes , the prohibition on the merging of Austria with Germany without the consent of the League of Nations , freedom of navigation on major European rivers , to the returning of a Koran to the king of Hedjaz .

In the mid-1960s , a program was started to improve corrosion protection by stripping the original paint and repainting the bridge with zinc silicate primer and vinyl topcoats . Since 1990 , acrylic topcoats have been used instead for air - quality reasons . The program was completed in 1995 and it is now maintained by 38 painters who touch up the paintwork where it becomes seriously corroded .

      After Scheidemann ′ s resignation , a new coalition government was formed under Gustav Bauer . President Friedrich Ebert knew that Germany was in an impossible situation . Although he shared his countrymen 's disgust with the treaty , he was sober enough to consider the possibility that the government would not be in a position to reject it . He believed that if Germany refused to sign the treaty , the Allies would invade Germany from the west -- and there was no guarantee that the army would be able to make a stand in the event of an invasion . With this in mind , he asked Field Marshal Paul von Hindenburg if the army was capable of any meaningful resistance in the event the Allies resumed the war . If there was even the slightest chance that the army could hold out , Ebert intended to recommend against ratifying the treaty . Hindenburg -- after prodding from his chief of staff , Wilhelm Groener -- concluded the army could not resume the war even on a limited scale . However , rather than inform Ebert himself , he had Groener inform the government that the army would be in an untenable position in the event of renewed hostilities . Upon receiving this , the new government recommended signing the treaty . The National Assembly voted in favour of signing the treaty by 237 to 138 , with five abstentions ( there were 421 delegates in total ) . This result was wired to Clemenceau just hours before the deadline . Foreign minister Hermann Müller and colonial minister Johannes Bell travelled to Versailles to sign the treaty on behalf of Germany . The treaty was signed on 28 June 1919 and ratified by the National Assembly on 9 July by a vote of 209 to 116 .

      American foreign policy was largely determined by President Woodrow Wilson , who had shown little interest in foreign affairs before entering the White House in 1913 . His chief advisor was `` Colonel '' Edward House , who was sent on many top - level missions . With the outbreak of war in 1914 , the United States declared neutrality and worked to broker a peace . It insisted on its neutral rights , which included allowing private corporations and banks to sell or loan money to either side . With the British blockade , there were almost no sales or loans to Germany , only to the Allies . The widely publicized German atrocities in Germany Shocked American public opinion . Neutrality was supported by Irish - Americans , who hated Britain , by German Americans who wanted to remain neutral , and by women and the churches . It was supported by the more educated upscale WASP element , led by Theodore Roosevelt . Wilson insisted on neutrality , denouncing both British and German violations , especially those German violations in which American civilians were killed . The German U-boat torpedoed the RMS Lusitania in 1915 . It sank in 20 minutes , killing killed 128 American civilians and over 1000 Britons . It was against the laws of war to sink any passenger ship without allowing the passengers to reach the life boats . American opinion turned strongly against Germany as a bloodthirsty threat to civilization . Germany apologized and repeatedly promised to stop attacks by its U-boats , but reversed course in early 1917 when it saw the opportunity to strangle Britain by unrestricted submarine warfare . It also made overtures to Mexico , in the Zimmermann Telegram , hoping to divert American military attention to south of the border . The German decision was not made or approved by the civilian government in Berlin , the by the military commanders and the Kaiser . They realized it meant war with the United States , but hoped to weaken the British by cutting off its imports , and strike a winning below with German soldiers transferred from the Eastern front , where Russia had surrendered . Following the repeated sinking of American merchant ships in early 1917 , Wilson asked and obtained a declaration of war in April 1917 . He neutralized the antiwar element by arguing this was a war With the main goal of ending aggressive militarism and indeed ending all wars . During the war the U.S. was not officially tied to the Allies by treaty , but military cooperation meant that the American contribution became significant in mid-1918 . After the failure of the German spring offensive , as fresh American troops arrived in France at 10,000 a day , the Germans were in a hopeless position , and surrendered . Coupled with Wilson 's Fourteen Points in January 1918 , the U.S. now had the initiative on the military , diplomatic and public relations fronts . Wilsonianism -- Wilson 's ideals -- had become the hope of the world , including the civilian population Germany itself .

    • Eukaryotes often have multiple origins of replication on each linear chromosome that initiate at different times ( replication timing ) , with up to 100,000 present in a single human cell . Having many origins of replication helps to speed the duplication of their ( usually ) much larger store of genetic material . The segment of DNA that is copied starting from each unique replication origin is called a replicon .

      `` Do Your Ears Hang Low ? '' ( Roud 15472 ) is a children 's song that is often sung in schools , at camps and at birthday parties . The melody of this song is usually a shorter version of `` Turkey in the Straw '' , but it can also be sung to the `` Sailor 's Hornpipe '' . Various theories exist concerning the origin of the lyrics , but no conclusive evidence seems to exist . A common belief is that the lyrics refer to the ears of a hound dog . It is most likely that this was a crude wartime soldiers ' song that , in sanitized form , has made its way into other circles .

      The Rough Riders was a nickname given to the 1st United States Volunteer Cavalry , one of three such regiments raised in 1898 for the Spanish -- American War and the only one of the three to see action . The United States Army was small and understaffed in comparison to its status during the American Civil War roughly thirty years prior . As a measure towards rectifying this situation President William McKinley called upon 125,000 volunteers to assist in the war efforts . The regiment was also called `` Wood 's Weary Walkers '' in honor of its first commander , Colonel Leonard Wood . This nickname served to acknowledge that despite being a cavalry unit they ended up fighting on foot as infantry .

      The alkali metals are a group ( column ) in the periodic table consisting of the chemical elements lithium ( Li ) , sodium ( Na ) , potassium ( K ) , rubidium ( Rb ) , caesium ( Cs ) , and francium ( Fr ) . This group lies in the s - block of the periodic table of elements as all alkali metals have their outermost electron in an s - orbital : this shared electron configuration results in their having very similar characteristic properties . Indeed , the alkali metals provide the best example of group trends in properties in the periodic table , with elements exhibiting well - characterised homologous behaviour .

      Wildlife adapted to these harsh conditions includes few large birds or mammals . However , the desert does sustain many types of lizard including the vulnerable great desert skink ( Egernia kintorei ) and a number of small marsupials including the endangered sandhill dunnart ( Sminthopsis psammophila ) and the crest - tailed mulgara ( Dasycercus cristicauda ) . One way to survive here is to burrow into the sands , as a number of the desert 's animals , including the southern marsupial mole ( Notoryctes typhlops ) , and the water - holding frog do . Birds include the chestnut - breasted whiteface ( Aphelocephala pectoralis ) found on the eastern edge of the desert and the malleefowl of Mamungari Conservation Park . Predators of the desert include the dingo ( as the desert is north of the Dingo Fence ) and two large monitor lizards , the perentie ( Varanus giganteus ) and the sand goanna ( Varanus gouldii ) .

      The alkali metals are all shiny , soft , highly reactive metals at standard temperature and pressure and readily lose their outermost electron to form cations with charge + 1 . They can all be cut easily with a knife due to their softness , exposing a shiny surface that tarnishes rapidly in air due to oxidation by atmospheric moisture and oxygen ( and in the case of lithium , nitrogen ) . Because of their high reactivity , they must be stored under oil to prevent reaction with air , and are found naturally only in salts and never as the free elements . Caesium , the fifth alkali metal , is the most reactive of all the metals . In the modern IUPAC nomenclature , the alkali metals comprise the group 1 elements , excluding hydrogen ( H ) , which is nominally a group 1 element but not normally considered to be an alkali metal as it rarely exhibits behaviour comparable to that of the alkali metals .

      Aft on the main deck in the stern was the cabin for Master Christopher Jones , measuring about ten by seven feet ( 3 m × 2.1 m ) . Forward of that was the steerage room , which housed a whipstaff ( tiller extension ) for sailing control ; not a wheel , as in later ships . Also here was the ship 's compass and probably also berths for the ship 's officers . Forward of the steerage room was the capstan , a vertical axle used to pull in ropes or cables . Far forward on the main deck , just aft of the bow , was the forecastle space where the ship 's cook prepared meals for the crew ; it may also have been where the ship 's sailors slept .

Los Angeles Times columnist Laura Hudson felt it was a grim departure for a character who endured long bouts of grief for reasons beyond her control . Erik Kain from Forbes magazine found Lori 's death especially difficult to watch , and was shocked by T - Dog 's `` sudden '' death despite the fact that he `` was never as prominent a figure '' on the program . `` As hard as these deaths were to watch , '' Kain wrote , `` they also give me faith in the show . '' Even though he stated that T - Dog died `` a hero 's death '' , Michael Rapoport of the Wall Street Journal concluded that Lori 's `` gut - churning '' demise was the more memorable .

    • Justice Lawrence John Wargrave , a retired judge , known as a `` hanging judge '' for liberally awarding the death penalty in murder cases . Wargrave is accused of influencing the jury to hand a guilty verdict to Edward Seton , a man many thought was innocent of his crime of killing an old woman , and sentencing him to death unfairly . However , as the two policemen discuss at Scotland Yard , new evidence after Seton 's execution proved he was unmistakably guilty . He admits in his postscript that he has a lifelong hidden sadistic urge to cause death , but felt bound only to indulge it with guilty persons , and a lifelong wish to create a masterpiece of a mystery . Finding himself terminally ill , he creates a game in which , as island owner `` U.N. Owen '' ( i.e. , `` Unknown '' ) , he entices to an island various people who have been responsible for the deaths of other people , but escaped justice , through a third party agent , Isaac Morris , in order to be a murderer himself , and kill his `` guests '' in a way that would leave an almost - unsolvable mystery . After the deaths , he arranges the island so that each death appears to have a survivor . However out of what he admits is a `` pitiful human need '' for recognition , he also writes a confession , which he throws in the sea , and leaves to chance whether it will be found . His final act is to shoot himself in a way that matches the description of his death in some of the other guests ' diaries , by using a rubber cord and handkerchief wrapped around the gun when he shoots himself in the head ; the elastic will separate and attract no attention , and the gun and cloth will recoil a sufficient distance from him to avoid any suspicion of the true circumstances by the police .

      In North American residential construction , aluminum wire was used for wiring entire houses for a short time from the 1960s to the mid-1970s during a period of high copper prices . Electrical devices ( outlets , switches , lighting , fans , etc . ) at the time were not designed with the particular properties of the aluminum wire being used in mind , and there were some issues related to the properties of the wire itself , making the installations with aluminum wire much more susceptible to problems . Revised manufacturing standards for both the wire and the devices were developed to reduce the problems . Existing homes with this older aluminum wiring used in branch circuits present a potential fire hazard .

Because Super Saiyan 4 is brought about while in a Saiyan 's Ōzaru ( 大 猿 , lit . `` Great Ape '' ) form , he made the hair more `` wild '' and covered Goku 's body in red fur . There was only a single final draft of the character , although Nakatsuru did consider making the hair blonde , he ended up choosing black as it provides more contrast with the red fur .

      Brisket is a cut of meat from the breast or lower chest of beef or veal . The beef brisket is one of the nine beef primal cuts , though the precise definition of the cut differs internationally . The brisket muscles include the superficial and deep pectorals . As cattle do not have collar bones , these muscles support about 60 % of the body weight of standing / moving cattle . This requires a significant amount of connective tissue , so the resulting meat must be cooked correctly to tenderize the connective tissue .

      In nuclear physics , beta decay ( β - decay ) is a type of radioactive decay in which a beta ray ( fast energetic electron or positron ) and a neutrino are emitted from an atomic nucleus . For example , beta decay of a neutron transforms it into a proton by the emission of an electron , or conversely a proton is converted into a neutron by the emission of a positron ( positron emission ) , thus changing the nuclide type . Neither the beta particle nor its associated neutrino exist within the nucleus prior to beta decay , but are created in the decay process . By this process , unstable atoms obtain a more stable ratio of protons to neutrons . The probability of a nuclide decaying due to beta and other forms of decay is determined by its nuclear binding energy . The binding energies of all existing nuclides form what is called the nuclear band or valley of stability . For either electron or positron emission to be energetically possible , the energy release ( see below ) or Q value must be positive .

      Relying solely on private donations , Sagrada Familia 's construction progressed slowly and was interrupted by the Spanish Civil War , only to resume intermittent progress in the 1950s . Since commencing construction in 1882 , advancements in technologies such as computer aided design and computerised numerical control ( CNC ) have enabled faster progress and construction passed the midpoint in 2010 . However , some of the project 's greatest challenges remain , including the construction of ten more spires , each symbolising an important Biblical figure in the New Testament . It is anticipated that the building could be completed by 2026 -- the centenary of Gaudí 's death .

      The designation `` Linux '' was initially used by Torvalds only for the Linux kernel . The kernel was , however , frequently used together with other software , especially that of the GNU project . This quickly became the most popular adoption of GNU software . In June 1994 in GNU 's bulletin , Linux was referred to as a `` free UNIX clone '' , and the Debian project began calling its product Debian GNU / Linux . In May 1996 , Richard Stallman published the editor Emacs 19.31 , in which the type of system was renamed from Linux to Lignux . This spelling was intended to refer specifically to the combination of GNU and Linux , but this was soon abandoned in favor of `` GNU / Linux '' .

      Eruptions of Etna follow a variety of patterns . Most occur at the summit , where there are currently ( as of 2008 ) five distinct craters -- the Northeast Crater , the Voragine , the Bocca Nuova , and the Southeast Crater Complex ( 2 ) . Other eruptions occur on the flanks , which have more than 300 vents ranging in size from small holes in the ground to large craters hundreds of metres across . Summit eruptions can be highly explosive and spectacular , but rarely threaten the inhabited areas around the volcano . In contrast , flank eruptions can occur down to a few hundred metres altitude , close to or even well within the inhabited areas . Numerous villages and small towns lie around or on cones of past flank eruptions . Since the year AD 1600 , at least 60 flank eruptions and countless summit eruptions have occurred ; nearly half of these have happened since the start of the 20th century . Since 2000 , Etna has had four flank eruptions -- in 2001 , 2002 -- 2003 , 2004 -- 2005 , and 2008 -- 2009 . Summit eruptions occurred in 2006 , 2007 -- 2008 , January -- April 2012 , and again in July -- October 2012 .

The six northeastern counties , known as Northern Ireland , remained within the United Kingdom . The Irish Civil War followed soon after the War of Independence . The history of Northern Ireland has since been dominated by sporadic sectarian conflict between ( mainly Catholic ) Irish nationalists and ( mainly Protestant ) unionists . This conflict erupted into the Troubles in the late 1960s , until peace was achieved with the Belfast Agreement thirty years later .

      Heart of palm is a vegetable harvested from the inner core and growing bud of certain palm trees ( notably the coconut ( Cocos nucifera ) , palmito juçara ( Euterpe edulis ) , Açaí palm ( Euterpe oleracea ) , sabal ( Sabal spp . ) , pupunha and pejibaye ( Bactris gasipaes ) palms ) . Harvesting of many non-cultivated or wild single - stemmed palms results in palm tree death ( e.g. Geonoma edulis ) . However , other palm species are clonal or multi-stemmed plants ( e.g. Prestoea acuminata , Euterpe oleracea ) and moderate harvesting will not kill the entire clonal palm . Heart of palm may be eaten on its own , and often it is eaten in a salad .

In season two , Caleb arrives at the Bates Motel but Norma immediately throws him out . However , Caleb bonds with Dylan , saying he helped protect Norma from their abusive father when they were children .

After Norman ( in Norma 's persona ) attacks him for the rape , Caleb leaves town . He returns to help Dylan with a `` pot farm '' by building a barn .

        Additionally , several of the players on this list played during an era when college freshmen were ineligible to compete at the varsity level and were forced to participate on either freshman or junior varsity teams . Since freshman and junior varsity points do not count toward official NCAA records , three players -- Pete Maravich , Oscar Robertson and Elvin Hayes -- only had three seasons to compile their totals . Larry Bird redshirted ( sat out ) his freshman year , and therefore , like Maravich , Robertson , and Hayes , his totals also cover only three seasons ( though in Bird 's case , unlike the others , it was his own choice not to play a fourth season at the college level ) . With the added benefits of a three - point line and a full extra year of varsity eligibility , their already - historical statistics would have been much higher . Maravich , a guard from LSU , not only owns the three highest single season averages in Division I history , but also the highest career total . Remarkably , he scored 3,667 points ( over 400 more than the next closest player ) in a mere 83 games . His record is considered nearly unbreakable ; the only player who could have potentially overtaken him as the top scorer in Division I history is Stephen Curry of Davidson , who had scored 2,635 points through his first three seasons of college basketball . However , Curry opted to forgo his final year of NCAA eligibility and moved on to the National Basketball Association ( NBA ) following his junior season in 2008 -- 09 .

        `` 9 -- 3 '' is a poem by Welsh comedian and singer Max Boyce and refers to the match between Llanelli and the New Zealand All Blacks at Stradey Park in front of 26,000 supporters on 31 October 1972 . Llanelli took a 6 -- 0 lead through a converted try but New Zealand struck back to make it 6 -- 3 . A long distance Andy Hill penalty ensured Llanelli emerged victors by 9 -- 3 and the crowd famously ran onto the pitch at the end and carried off players such as Delme Thomas . The poem is best known for the line `` The day the pubs ran dry '' , as huge celebrations followed and many pubs in the town sold out of all alcoholic drinks .

          The Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 ( 29 U.S.C. § 621 to 29 U.S.C. § 634 ) is a US labor law that forbids employment discrimination against anyone at least 40 years of age in the United States ( see 29 U.S.C. § 631 ) . In 1967 , the bill was signed into law by President Lyndon B. Johnson . The ADEA prevents age discrimination and provides equal employment opportunity under conditions that were not explicitly covered in Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 . It also applies to the standards for pensions and benefits provided by employers , and requires that information concerning the needs of older workers be provided to the general public .

        `` Brother , Can You Spare a Dime ? '' , also sung as `` Buddy , Can You Spare a Dime ? '' , is one of the best - known American songs of the Great Depression . Written in 1930 by lyricist E.Y. `` Yip '' Harburg and composer Jay Gorney , `` Brother , Can You Spare a Dime ? '' was part of the 1932 musical revue Americana ; the melody is based on a Russian - Jewish lullaby Gorney 's mother had sung to him as a child . It was considered by Republicans to be anti-capitalist propaganda , and almost dropped from the show ; attempts were made to ban it from the radio . The song became best known , however , through recordings by Bing Crosby and Rudy Vallee . They were released right before Franklin Delano Roosevelt 's election to the presidency . The Brunswick Crosby recording made on October 25 , 1932 with Lennie Hayton and his Orchestra became the best - selling record of its period , and came to be viewed as an anthem to the shattered dreams of the era .

        Massachusetts was declared in a state of rebellion in February 1775 and the British garrison received orders to disarm the rebels and arrest their leaders , leading to the Battles of Lexington and Concord on 19 April 1775 . The Patriots laid siege to Boston , expelled royal officials from all the colonies , and took control through the establishment of Provincial Congresses . The Battle of Bunker Hill followed on June 17 , 1775 . It was a British victory -- but at a great cost : about 1,000 British casualties from a garrison of about 6,000 , as compared to 500 American casualties from a much larger force . The Second Continental Congress was divided on the best course of action , but eventually produced the Olive Branch Petition , in which they attempted to come to an accord with King George . The king , however , issued a Proclamation of Rebellion which stated that the states were `` in rebellion '' and the members of Congress were traitors .

        The Empire of Japan aimed to dominate Asia and the Pacific and was already at war with the Republic of China in 1937 , but the world war is generally said to have begun on 1 September 1939 with the invasion of Poland by Nazi Germany and subsequent declarations of war on Germany by France and the United Kingdom . From late 1939 to early 1941 , in a series of campaigns and treaties , Germany conquered or controlled much of continental Europe , and formed the Axis alliance with Italy and Japan . Under the Molotov -- Ribbentrop Pact of August 1939 , Germany and the Soviet Union partitioned and annexed territories of their European neighbours , Poland , Finland , Romania and the Baltic states . The war continued primarily between the European Axis powers and the coalition of the United Kingdom and the British Commonwealth , with campaigns including the North Africa and East Africa campaigns , the aerial Battle of Britain , the Blitz bombing campaign , and the Balkan Campaign , as well as the long - running Battle of the Atlantic . On 22 June 1941 , the European Axis powers launched an invasion of the Soviet Union , opening the largest land theatre of war in history , which trapped the major part of the Axis military forces into a war of attrition . In December 1941 , Japan attacked the United States and European colonies in the Pacific Ocean , and quickly conquered much of the Western Pacific .

        Taped at CBS Television City , studios 41 and 43 in Hollywood since its debut on March 26 , 1973 , the show was packaged by the distribution company Columbia Pictures Television , which has now been replaced by Sony Pictures Television . The Young and the Restless originally aired as a half - hour series on CBS and was the first soap opera to focus on the visual aspects of production , creating `` a look that broke with the visual conventions of the genre . '' Similar to the radio serials that had preceded them , soap operas at the time primarily focused on dialogue , characters , and story , with details like sets as secondary concerns . The Young and the Restless stood out by using unique lighting techniques and camera angles , similar to Hollywood - style productions . The style of videotaping included using out - of - the - ordinary camera angles and a large number of facial close - ups with bright lighting on the actors ' faces . Conboy said he used lighting to create `` artistic effects '' . Those effects made the series look dark , shadowy , and moody . The Young and the Restless ' look influenced the taping styles of other soap operas . When H. Wesley Kenney replaced Conboy as executive producer , he balanced the lighting of the scenes .

        The chaplet may be repeated over a period of nine days as part of a novena . According to Faustina 's Diary , Jesus himself in a vision asked that the Divine Mercy Novena be prayed as a preparation for the Feast of the Divine Mercy , celebrated each year on first Sunday after Easter . The novena should begin on Good Friday . There is a prayer intention for specific group of people on each of the nine days . The last day intention , according to Jesus ' message to St. Faustina , is the most difficult of all : to pray for the people who are lukewarm and indifferent . Jesus described those people as follows :

        According to Faustina 's visions , written in her diary , the chaplet 's prayers for mercy are threefold : to obtain mercy , to trust in Christ 's mercy , and to show mercy to others . Faustina wrote that Jesus promised that all who recite this chaplet at the hour of death or in the presence of the dying will receive great mercy . She wrote that Jesus said :

        According to Roman Catholic tradition , the chaplet may be said at any time , but it is said especially on Divine Mercy Sunday and Fridays at 3 : 00 PM . The Chaplet is prayed daily at the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy in Stockbridge , Massachusetts . In the Philippines , Singapore , and Hong Kong the `` 3 o'clock Prayer '' is broadcast on radio and television stations daily at 3 : 00 p.m. In 2000 , Pope John Paul II ordained the Sunday after Easter Divine Mercy Sunday , where Roman Catholics remember the institution of the Sacrament of Penance . The hour Jesus died by crucifixion , 3 : 00 PM ( 15 : 00 ) , is called the Hour of Mercy . In a novena , the chaplet is usually said each of the nine days from Good Friday to Divine Mercy Sunday .

        Johannes Gutenberg , a goldsmith by profession , developed , circa 1439 , a printing system by adapting existing technologies to printing purposes , as well as making inventions of his own . Printing in East Asia had been prevalent since the Tang dynasty , and in Europe , woodblock printing based on existing screw presses was common by the 14th century . Gutenberg 's most important innovation was the development of hand - molded metal printing matrices , thus producing a movable type based printing press system . His newly devised hand mould made possible the precise and rapid creation of metal movable type in large quantities . Movable type had been hitherto unknown in Europe . In Europe , the two inventions , the hand mould and the printing press , together drastically reduced the cost of printing books and other documents , particularly in short print runs .

        The wood thrush 's breeding range extends from Manitoba , Ontario and Nova Scotia in southern Canada to northern Florida and from the Atlantic coast to the Missouri River and the eastern Great Plains . It migrates to southern Mexico through to Panama in Central America in the winter , mostly in the lowlands along the Atlantic and Pacific coasts . It generally arrives on the U.S. Gulf Coast during the first week of April . Fall migration usually begins in mid-August and continues through mid-September . Migration takes place at night , allowing them to find their direction from the stars and orient themselves by detecting the Earth 's magnetic field .

        Full - scale war broke out between the Việt Minh and France in late 1946 and the First Indochina War officially began . Realizing that colonialism was coming to an end worldwide , France decided to bring former emperor Bảo Đại back to power , as a political alternative to Ho Chi Minh . A Provisional Central Government was formed in 1948 , reuniting Annam and Tonkin , but the complete reunification of Vietnam was delayed for a year because of the problems posed by Cochinchina 's legal status . In July 1949 , the State of Vietnam was officially proclaimed , as a semi-independent country within the French Union , with Bảo Đại as Head of State . France was finally persuaded to relinquish its colonies in Indochina in 1954 when Viet Minh forces defeated the French at Dien Bien Phu . The 1954 Geneva Conference left Vietnam a divided nation , with Hồ Chí Minh 's communist DRV government ruling the North from Hanoi and Ngô Đình Diệm 's Republic of Vietnam , supported by the United States , ruling the South from Saigon . Between 1953 and 1956 , the North Vietnamese government instituted various agrarian reforms , including `` rent reduction '' and `` land reform '' , which resulted in significant political oppression . During the land reform , testimony from North Vietnamese witnesses suggested a ratio of one execution for every 160 village residents , which extrapolated nationwide would indicate nearly 100,000 executions . Because the campaign was concentrated mainly in the Red River Delta area , a lower estimate of 50,000 executions became widely accepted by scholars at the time . However , declassified documents from the Vietnamese and Hungarian archives indicate that the number of executions was much lower than reported at the time , although likely greater than 13,500 . In the South , Diem went about crushing political and religious opposition , imprisoning or killing tens of thousands .

He has the head structure and horns of a buffalo , the arms and body of a bear , the eyebrows of a gorilla , the jaws , teeth , and mane of a lion , the tusks of a wild boar and the legs and tail of a wolf . He also bears resemblance to mythical monsters like the Minotaur or a werewolf . He also has blue eyes , the one physical feature that does not change whether he is a beast or a human .

        Inhabited by Native Americans for thousands of years before European exploration , it was colonized by the Spanish in 1598 as part of the Imperial Spanish viceroyalty of New Spain . It was named Nuevo México after the Aztec Valley of Mexico by Spanish settlers , 223 years before the establishment of the present - day country of Mexico . The present - day state of New Mexico was not named after , nor is it a part of , Mexico . Its geographic characteristics made settlement and effective political control difficult which prompted Mexico 's invasion and control of the area from 1824 to 1846 . New Mexico 's Spanish origins made cultural integration with Mexico unsuitable , which sparked the Revolt of 1837 and a growing economic association with the expanding United States . The 1848 Mexican -- American War indirectly capitalized on this tension and created the U.S. New Mexico Territory . It was admitted to the Union as the 47th state on January 6 , 1912 .

        Earth rotates once in about 24 hours with respect to the Sun , but once every 23 hours , 56 minutes , and 4 seconds with respect to the stars ( see below ) . Earth 's rotation is slowing slightly with time ; thus , a day was shorter in the past . This is due to the tidal effects the Moon has on Earth 's rotation . Atomic clocks show that a modern day is longer by about 1.7 milliseconds than a century ago , slowly increasing the rate at which UTC is adjusted by leap seconds . Analysis of historical astronomical records shows a slowing trend of 2.3 milliseconds per century since the 8th century BC E .

        The most formal dinner is served from the kitchen . When the meal is served , in addition to the central plate ( a service plate or dinner plate at supper ; at luncheon , a service plate or luncheon plate ) at each place there are a bread roll ( generally on a bread plate , sometimes in the napkin ) , napkin , and flatware ( knives and spoons to the right of the central plate , and forks to the left ) . Coffee is served in Butler Service style in demitasses , and a spoon placed on the saucer to the right of each handle . Serving dishes and utensils are not placed on the table for a formal dinner . The only exception in the West to these general rules is the protocol followed at the Spanish royal court , which was also adopted by the Austrian court , in which all cutlery was placed to the right of the central plate for each diner .

        A further distancing between the concepts of `` Tridentine Mass '' and `` Latin Mass '' was brought about by the 1964 Instruction on implementing the Constitution on Sacred Liturgy of the Second Vatican Council , which laid down that `` normally the epistle and gospel from the Mass of the day shall be read in the vernacular '' . Episcopal conferences were to decide , with the consent of the Holy See , what other parts , if any , of the Mass were to be celebrated in the vernacular . Permissions were thus granted from 1967 onwards to celebrate most of the Tridentine Mass in vernacular languages , including the Canon .

        In the last million years since the Late Miocene , South America became connected with the continent of North America via the Panama Block that closed the marine Bolivar Trough , leading to the Great American Interchange , the interchange of biota from both continents . The first species discovered to have made the northward migration was Pliometanastes , a fossil ground sloth species , roughly the size of a modern black bear . Several migrations to the Southern Hemisphere were undertaken by tougher , North American mammal carnivores ; fewer species migrated in the opposite direction from south to north . The result of the intrusion of North American fauna was that hundreds of South American species became extinct in a relatively short time and that about 60 % of present - day South American mammals have evolved from North American species . However , some species were able to adapt and spread into North America . Apart from Pliometanastes , during the Irvingtonian stage of the mammal land stages , around 1.9 Ma , species as Pampatherium , a giant armadillo , ground sloth Megatherium , giant anteater Myrmecophaga , a Neogene capybara ( Hydrochoerus ) , Meizonyx , opossum Didelphis , and Mixotoxodon followed the route north . The terror bird Titanis was the only discovered South American carnivore species who made the journey into North America .

        At first , the government was reluctant to engage in propaganda campaigns , but pressure from the media , the business sector and advertisers who wanted direction persuaded the government to take an active role . Even so , the government insisted that its actions were not propaganda , but a means of providing information . These efforts were slowly and haphazardly formed into a more unified propaganda effort , although never to the level of World War I .

        The name Moloch results from a dysphemic vocalisation in the Second Temple period of a theonym based on the root mlk `` king '' . There are a number of Canaanite gods with names based on this root , which became summarily associated with Moloch , including Biblical מַלְכָּם ‎ Malkam `` great king '' ( KJV Milcom ) , which appears to refer to a god of the Ammonites , as well as Tyrian Melqart and others .

        None of the German states had American colonies . In the 1670s , the first significant groups of German immigrants arrived in the British colonies , settling primarily in Pennsylvania , New York , and Virginia . Immigration continued in very large numbers during the 19th century , with eight million arrivals from Germany . Between 1820 and 1870 over seven and a half million German immigrants came to the United States -- more than doubling the entire population of the country . By 2010 , their population grew to 49.8 million immigrants , reflecting a jump of 6 million people since 2000 .

        Taxonomy ( from Ancient Greek τάξις ( taxis ) , meaning ' arrangement ' , and - νομία ( - nomia ) , meaning ' method ' ) is the science of defining and naming groups of biological organisms on the basis of shared characteristics . Organisms are grouped together into taxa ( singular : taxon ) and these groups are given a taxonomic rank ; groups of a given rank can be aggregated to form a super-group of higher rank , thus creating a taxonomic hierarchy . The principal ranks in modern use are domain , kingdom , phylum ( division is sometimes used in botany in place of phylum ) , class , order , family , genus and species . The Swedish botanist Carl Linnaeus is regarded as the father of taxonomy , as he developed a system known as Linnaean taxonomy for categorization of organisms and binomial nomenclature for naming organisms .

        Given the problems of the proton -- electron model , it was quickly accepted that the atomic nucleus is composed of protons and neutrons , although the precise nature of the neutron was initially unclear . Within months after the discovery of the neutron , Werner Heisenberg and Dmitri Ivanenko had proposed proton -- neutron models for the nucleus . Heisenberg 's landmark papers approached the description of protons and neutrons in the nucleus through quantum mechanics . While Heisenberg 's theory for protons and neutrons in the nucleus was a `` major step toward understanding the nucleus as a quantum mechanical system , '' he still assumed the presence of nuclear electrons . In particular , Heisenberg assumed the neutron was a proton -- electron composite , for which there is no quantum mechanical explanation . Heisenberg had no explanation for how lightweight electrons could be bound within the nucleus . Heisenberg introduced the first theory of nuclear exchange forces that bind the nucleons . He considered protons and neutrons to be different quantum states of the same particle , i.e. , nucleons distinguished by the value of their nuclear isospin quantum numbers .

        Twenty20 cricket , sometimes written Twenty - 20 , and often abbreviated to T20 , is a short form of cricket . At the professional level , it was originally introduced by the England and Wales Cricket Board ( ECB ) in 2003 for the inter-county competition in England and Wales . In a Twenty20 game the two teams have a single innings each , which is restricted to a maximum of 20 overs . Together with first - class and List A cricket , Twenty20 is one of the three current forms of cricket recognised by the International Cricket Council ( ICC ) as being at the highest international or domestic level . A typical Twenty20 game is completed in about three hours , with each innings lasting around 75 -- 90 minutes and a 10 -- 20 - minute interval . This is much shorter than previously - existing forms of the game , and is closer to the timespan of other popular team sports . It was introduced to create a fast - paced form of the game which would be attractive to spectators at the ground and viewers on television .

        The composition of the House is established by Article One of the United States Constitution . The House is composed of Representatives who sit in congressional districts that are allocated to each of the 50 states on a basis of population as measured by the U.S. Census , with each district entitled to one representative . Since its inception in 1789 , all Representatives have been directly elected . The total number of voting representatives is fixed by law at 435 . As of the 2010 Census , the largest delegation is that of California , with fifty - three representatives . Seven states have the smallest delegation possible , a single representative : Alaska , Delaware , Montana , North Dakota , South Dakota , Vermont , and Wyoming .

        Representatives and Delegates serve for two - year terms , while the Resident Commissioner serves for four years . The Constitution permits the House to expel a member with a two - thirds vote . In the history of the United States , only five members have been expelled from the House ; in 1861 , three were removed for supporting the Confederate states ' secession : John Bullock Clark ( D - MO ) , John William Reid ( D - MO ) and Henry Cornelius Burnett ( D - KY ) . Michael Myers ( D - PA ) was expelled after his criminal conviction for accepting bribes in 1980 , and James Traficant ( D - OH ) was expelled in 2002 following his conviction for corruption . The House also has the power to formally censure or reprimand its members ; censure or reprimand of a member requires only a simple majority , and does not remove that member from office .

        A simple squamous epithelium is a single layer of flat cells in contact with the basal lamina ( one of the two layers of the basement membrane ) of the epithelium . This type of epithelium is often permeable and occurs where small molecules need to pass quickly through membranes via filtration or diffusion . Simple squamous epithelia are found in capillaries , alveoli , glomeruli , outer layer of skin and other tissues where rapid diffusion is required . Cells are flat with flattened and oblong nucleus . It is also called pavement epithelium due to its tile - like appearance . This epithelium is associated with filtration and diffusion. This tissue is extremely thin , and forms a delicate lining . It offers very little protection .

        During the first two centuries of Christianity , the cross was rare in Christian iconography , as it depicts a purposely painful and gruesome method of public execution and Christians were reluctant to use it . A symbol similar to the cross , the staurogram , was used to abbreviate the Greek word for cross in very early New Testament manuscripts such as P66 , P45 and P75 , almost like a nomen sacrum ( nomina sacra ) . The extensive adoption of the cross as Christian iconographic symbol arose from the 4th century .

In the order of the Tales , it comes after The Physician 's Tale and before The Shipman 's Tale ; it is prompted by the Host 's desire to hear something positive after that depressing tale . The Pardoner initiates his Prologue -- briefly accounting his methods of conning people -- and then proceeds to tell a moral tale .

        Drew also got married a number of times during this portion of the show . His first marriage was to Diane , a cocktail waitress in Las Vegas . This was only temporary however , as she needed Drew to retain custody of her children . His second marriage was to Mr. Wick , who forced Drew to marry him in a sham same - sex civil union in Vermont ( the only place it was legal at the time ) in hopes that the marriage would placate the Immigration and Naturalization Service . At the beginning of Season 7 , Drew married both Nikki and Kate ( the former had been a recurring character for some time since Season 3 , and suffered from weight problems ) . They found out about this and all three of these marriages ended in divorce , and Drew became known as the `` Impotent Bisexual Bigamist '' . Nikki eventually returned , and the actress , Kate Walsh , donned a fat suit again and moved in with Drew .

        The memory in flash drives is commonly engineered with multi-level cell ( MLC ) based memory that is good for around 3,000 - 5,000 program - erase cycles , but some flash drives have single - level cell ( SLC ) based memory that is good for around 100,000 writes . There is virtually no limit to the number of reads from such flash memory , so a well - worn USB drive may be write - protected to help ensure the life of individual cells .

When they arrive they discover a hoard of treasure and decide to stay with it until nightfall and carry it away under cover of darkness . Out of greed , they murder each other . The tale and prologue are primarily concerned with what the Pardoner says is his `` theme '' : Radix malorum est cupiditas ( `` Greed is the root of ( all ) evils '' ) .

        However , the cross symbol was already associated with Christians in the 2nd century , as is indicated in the anti-Christian arguments cited in the Octavius of Minucius Felix , chapters IX and XXIX , written at the end of that century or the beginning of the next , and by the fact that by the early 3rd century the cross had become so closely associated with Christ that Clement of Alexandria , who died between 211 and 216 , could without fear of ambiguity use the phrase τὸ κυριακὸν σημεῖον ( the Lord 's sign ) to mean the cross , when he repeated the idea , current as early as the apocryphal Epistle of Barnabas , that the number 318 ( in Greek numerals , ΤΙΗ ) in Genesis 14 : 14 was interpreted as a foreshadowing ( a `` type '' ) of the cross ( T , an upright with crossbar , standing for 300 ) and of Jesus ( ΙΗ , the first two letter of his name ΙΗΣΟΥΣ , standing for 18 ) , and his contemporary Tertullian could designate the body of Christian believers as crucis religiosi , i.e. `` devotees of the Cross '' . In his book De Corona , written in 204 , Tertullian tells how it was already a tradition for Christians to trace repeatedly on their foreheads the sign of the cross . The crucifix , a cross upon which an image of Christ is present , is not known to have been used until the 6th century AD .

        1. Woods has won 79 official PGA Tour events , second only to Sam Snead , and six ahead of Jack Nicklaus with 73 wins . ( See List of golfers with most PGA Tour wins . )
        2. Woods has won 14 majors , second all time , behind Jack Nicklaus .
        3. Woods is 14 -- 1 when going into the final round of a major with at least a share of the lead .
        4. Woods scoring average in 2000 is the lowest in PGA Tour history , both adjusted , 67.79 , and unadjusted , 68.17 .
        5. Woods has the lowest career scoring average in PGA Tour history .
        6. Woods has amassed the most career earnings of any player in PGA Tour history ( even after inflation is considered ) .
        7. Woods is one of five players ( along with Gene Sarazen , Ben Hogan , Gary Player , and Jack Nicklaus ) to have won all four professional major championships in his career , known as the Career Grand Slam , and was the youngest to do so .
        8. Woods is the only player to have won all four professional major championships in a row , accomplishing the feat in the 2000 -- 2001 seasons . This feat became known as the `` Tiger Slam '' .
        9. Woods set the all - time PGA Tour record for most consecutive cuts made , with 142 . The streak started in 1998 , he set the record at the 2003 Tour Championship with 114 ( passing Byron Nelson 's previous record of 113 and Jack Nicklaus at 105 ) and extended this mark to 142 before it ended on May 13 , 2005 at the EDS Byron Nelson Championship . Many consider this to be one of the most remarkable golf accomplishments of all time , given the margin by which he broke the old record and given that during the streak , the next longest streak by any other player was usually only in the 10s or 20s . It should be noted that when Byron Nelson played far fewer players made the cut in a given event .
        10. Woods has won a record 25.2 % ( 79 out of 313 ) of his professional starts on the PGA Tour .
        11. Woods is the only golfer to have won the U.S. Amateur three consecutive times ( 1994 -- 96 ) .

        The federal law requires states to have a minimum age of 18 years for sale / purchase of tobacco products ( 21 U.S.C. § 387f. ( 3 ) ( a ) ( ii ) ) . State laws may extend this ban and also prohibit supply , possession and consumption to / by person underage , or increase the age beyond 18 . However , most states do not directly ban the consumption of tobacco by a minor . The federal law requiring states to have a minimum purchasing age at 18 is enforced by withholding FEMA disaster and non-disaster grants from states that have purchasing ages under 18 , and currently no state falls under that category .

        The Cylinder 's text has traditionally been seen by biblical scholars as corroborative evidence of Cyrus ' policy of the repatriation of the Jewish people following their Babylonian captivity ( an act that the Book of Ezra attributes to Cyrus ) , as the text refers to the restoration of cult sanctuaries and repatriation of deported peoples . This interpretation has been disputed , as the text identifies only Mesopotamian sanctuaries , and makes no mention of Jews , Jerusalem , or Judea . The Cylinder has also been referred to by Mohammad Reza Pahlavi , the last Shah of Iran as the first declaration of universal human rights , a view rejected by some historians as anachronistic and a misunderstanding of the Cylinder 's generic nature as a typical statement made by a new monarch at the beginning of his reign . Neil MacGregor , Director of the British Museum , has stated that the cylinder was `` the first attempt we know about running a society , a state with different nationalities and faiths -- a new kind of statecraft . '' It was adopted as a national symbol of Iran by the Imperial State which put it on display in Tehran in 1971 to commemorate 2,500 year celebration of the Persian Empire . On October 14 , the Mohammad Reza Shah 's sister , Princess Ashraf Pahlavi , presented the United Nations Secretary General U Thant with a replica of the Cylinder . The princess asserted that `` the heritage of Cyrus was the heritage of human understanding , tolerance , courage , compassion and , above all , human liberty '' .

        Fortnite is set in contemporary Earth , where the sudden appearance of a worldwide storm causes 98 % of the world 's population to disappear , and zombie - like creatures rise to attack the remainder . Considered by Epic as a cross between Minecraft and Left 4 Dead , Fortnite has up to four players cooperating on various missions on randomly - generated maps to collect resources , build fortifications around defensive objectives that are meant to help fight the storm and protect survivors , and construct weapons and traps to engage in combat with waves of these creatures that attempt to destroy the objectives . Players gain rewards through these missions to improve their hero characters , support teams , and arsenal of weapon and trap schematics to be able to take on more difficult missions . The game is supported through microtransactions to purchase in - game currency that can be used towards these upgrades .

        It is also known as an `` immediate hemolytic transfusion reaction '' . This is a medical emergency as it results from rapid destruction of the donor red blood cells by host antibodies ( IgG , IgM ) . It is usually related to ABO blood group incompatibility - the most severe of which often involves group A red cells being given to a patient with group O type blood . Properdin then binds to complement C3 in the donor blood , facilitating the reaction through the alternate pathway cascade . The donor cells also become coated with IgG and are subsequently removed by macrophages in the reticuloendothelial system ( RES ) . Jaundice and disseminated intravascular coagulation ( DIC ) may also occur . The most common cause is clerical error ( i.e. the wrong unit of blood being given to the patient ) .

        With the Intertropical Convergence Zone ( ITCZ ) swinging northward over West Africa from the Southern Hemisphere in April , heavy showers coming from pre-monsoonal convective clouds mainly in the form of squall lines also known as the north easterlies formed mainly as a result of the interactions of the two dominant airmasses in Nigeria known as the Maritime tropical ( south westerlies ) and the Continental tropical ( north easterlies ) , begins in central Nigeria while the Monsoons from the south atlantic ocean arrives in central Nigeria in July bringing with it high humidity , heavy cloud cover and heavy rainfall which can be daily occurrence lasting till September when the monsoons gradually begin retreating southward to the southern part of Nigeria. Rainfall totals in central Nigeria varies from 1,100 mm ( 43.3 in ) in the lowlands of the river Niger Benue trough to over 2,000 mm ( 78.7 in ) along the south western escarpment of the Jos Plateau .

        The earliest predecessors of the eye were photoreceptor proteins that sense light , found even in unicellular organisms , called `` eyespots '' . Eyespots can only sense ambient brightness : they can distinguish light from dark , sufficient for photoperiodism and daily synchronization of circadian rhythms . They are insufficient for vision , as they can not distinguish shapes or determine the direction light is coming from . Eyespots are found in nearly all major animal groups , and are common among unicellular organisms , including euglena . The euglena 's eyespot , called a stigma , is located at its anterior end . It is a small splotch of red pigment which shades a collection of light sensitive crystals . Together with the leading flagellum , the eyespot allows the organism to move in response to light , often toward the light to assist in photosynthesis , and to predict day and night , the primary function of circadian rhythms . Visual pigments are located in the brains of more complex organisms , and are thought to have a role in synchronising spawning with lunar cycles . By detecting the subtle changes in night - time illumination , organisms could synchronise the release of sperm and eggs to maximise the probability of fertilisation .

        As a result of the report , Joseph Rowntree 's conviction that it must be possible to provide better housing for people on low incomes led him to acquire 150 acres of land near the village of Earswick , two and a half miles to the north of the centre of York . The planner Raymond Unwin and the architect Barry Parker were commissioned to produce an overall plan for a new ' garden ' village and the detailed designs for its first houses . They also designed the garden cities of Letchworth and Welwyn Garden City .

      • Very little infrastructure is required for long - distance two - way communications using shortwave radio . All one needs is a pair of transceivers , each with an antenna , and a source of energy ( such as a battery , a portable generator , or the electrical grid ) . This makes shortwave radio one of the most robust means of communications , which can be disrupted only by interference or bad ionospheric conditions . Modern digital transmission modes such as MFSK and Olivia are even more robust , allowing successful reception of signals well below the noise floor of a conventional receiver .

        In vertebrates , the gallbladder is a small hollow organ where bile is stored and concentrated before it is released into the small intestine . In humans , the pear - shaped gallbladder lies beneath the liver , although the structure and position of the gallbladder can vary significantly among animal species . It receives and stores bile , produced by the liver , via the common hepatic duct , and releases it via the common bile duct into the duodenum , where the bile helps in the digestion of fats .

        Lithium and its compounds have several industrial applications , including heat - resistant glass and ceramics , lithium grease lubricants , flux additives for iron , steel and aluminium production , lithium batteries , and lithium - ion batteries . These uses consume more than three quarters of lithium production .

        +

        Late in the 20th century , lithium became an important component of battery electrolytes and electrodes , because of its high electrode potential . Because of its low atomic mass , it has a high charge - and power - to - weight ratio . A typical lithium - ion battery can generate approximately 3 volts per cell , compared with 2.1 volts for lead - acid or 1.5 volts for zinc - carbon cells . Lithium - ion batteries , which are rechargeable and have a high energy density , should not be confused with lithium batteries , which are disposable ( primary ) batteries with lithium or its compounds as the anode . Other rechargeable batteries that use lithium include the lithium - ion polymer battery , lithium iron phosphate battery , and the nanowire battery .

        The provisions relating to the right to property were changed a number of times . The Forty - Fourth Amendment of 1978 deleted the right to property from the list of fundamental rights A new provision , Article 300 - A , was added to the constitution , which provided that `` no person shall be deprived of his property save by authority of law '' . Thus if a legislature makes a law depriving a person of his property , there would be no obligation on the part of the State to pay anything as compensation . The aggrieved person shall have no right to move the court under Article 32 . Thus , the right to property is no longer a fundamental right , though it is still a constitutional right . If the government appears to have acted unfairly , the action can be challenged in a court of law by aggrieved citizens .

        Hops production is concentrated in moist temperate climates , with much of the world 's production occurring near the 48th parallel north . Hop plants prefer the same soils as potatoes and the leading potato - growing states in the United States are also major hops - producing areas ; however , not all potato - growing areas can produce good hops naturally : soils in the Maritime Provinces of Canada , for example , lack the boron that hops prefer . Historically , hops were not grown in Ireland , but were imported from England . In 1752 more than 500 tons of English hops were imported through Dublin alone .

        For thousands of years , seawater pearls were retrieved by divers in the Indian Ocean in areas such as the Persian Gulf , the Red Sea and the Gulf of Mannar . Evidence also suggest a prehistoric origin to pearl diving in these regions . Starting in the Han Dynasty ( 206 BC -- 220 AD ) , the Chinese hunted extensively for seawater pearls in the South China Sea . In the 14th - century Arabian Sea , the traveller Ibn Battuta provided the earliest known description of pearl diving by means of attaching a cord to the diver 's waist .

Meredith is relatively unscathed , while the rest have serious injuries : the pilot , Jerry ( James LeGros ) , has a major spine injury , and Yang dislocates her arm . Robbins ' femur is broken and sticking through the skin , Sloan has serious internal injuries ; though initially adrenaline keeps him on his feet . Shepherd is sucked out the side of the plane and awakens alone in the wood ; his mangled hand having been pushed through the door of the plane . However , none are in as bad shape as Lexie , who is crushed under a piece of the plane . While Meredith searches for Shepherd , Yang and Sloan try to move the debris off Lexie . Eventually , the two realize that they can not save her , so Sloan holds her hand while she dies , telling her that he loves her . As Sloan tells her of the life the two were meant to have together , Lexie dies with a smile on her face just as Meredith and Yang are approaching .

        Spike , occasionally referred to as Butch or Killer , is a stern but occasionally dumb American bulldog who is particularly disapproving of cats , but a softie when it comes to mice ( though in his debut appearance , Dog Trouble , Spike goes after both Tom and Jerry ) , and later , his son Tyke . In the shorts Jerry would often try to get Tom in trouble with Spike making him a shoo - in for a beating from the bulldog . Spike has a few weaknesses that Tom tries to capitalize upon : his possessiveness about his bone and his ticklishness . He made his first appearance in the 1942 Tom and Jerry cartoon Dog Trouble , and his first speaking role was in 1944 's The Bodyguard , where he was voiced by Billy Bletcher up until 1949 , from which point he was voiced by Daws Butler . Unlike his father Spike , Tyke does not speak . He only communicates by yapping , whimpering , growling , facial expressions and wagging his tail . In Tom and Jerry Kids , Tyke does have a speaking role in the program and is the first time that viewers were able to hear Tyke speak . Spike is very protective towards his son and gets very angry at Tom if Tyke is bothered or harmed . Although Tyke has spoken in Tom and Jerry Kids , he has laughed in one Tom and Jerry short . After Daws Butler , Maurice LaMarche , Frank Welker , John DiMaggio , Michael Donovan , Phil LaMarr and currently Rick Zieff would all perform Spike 's voice . Tyke 's vocal effects are provided by Frank Welker and speaking roles by Patric Zimmerman .

        The story of Shakespeare 's Hamlet was derived from the legend of Amleth , preserved by 13th - century chronicler Saxo Grammaticus in his Gesta Danorum , as subsequently retold by the 16th - century scholar François de Belleforest . Shakespeare may also have drawn on an earlier Elizabethan play known today as the Ur - Hamlet , though some scholars believe he himself wrote the Ur - Hamlet , later revising it to create the version of Hamlet we now have . He almost certainly wrote his version of the title role for his fellow actor , Richard Burbage , the leading tragedian of Shakespeare 's time . In the 400 years since its inception , the role has been performed by numerous highly acclaimed actors in each successive century .

        The Great Gatsby is a 1925 novel written by American author F. Scott Fitzgerald that follows a cast of characters living in the fictional town of West Egg on prosperous Long Island in the summer of 1922 . The story primarily concerns the young and mysterious millionaire Jay Gatsby and his quixotic passion and obsession for the beautiful former debutante Daisy Buchanan . Considered to be Fitzgerald 's magnum opus , The Great Gatsby explores themes of decadence , idealism , resistance to change , social upheaval , and excess , creating a portrait of the Jazz Age or the Roaring Twenties that has been described as a cautionary tale regarding the American Dream .

        Set on the prosperous Long Island of 1922 , The Great Gatsby provides a critical social history of America during the Roaring Twenties within its fictional narrative . That era , known for unprecedented economic prosperity , the evolution of jazz music flapper culture , new technologies in communication ( motion pictures , broadcast radio , recorded music ) forging a genuine mass culture ; and bootlegging , along with other criminal activity , is plausibly depicted in Fitzgerald 's novel . Fitzgerald uses many of these societal developments of the 1920s that were to build Gatsby 's stories from many of the simple details like automobiles to broader themes like Fitzgerald 's discreet allusions to the organized crime culture which was the source of Gatsby 's fortune . Fitzgerald depicts the garish society of the Roaring Twenties by placing the book 's plotline within the historical context of the era .

        Originally introduced as a classical tax system , in which companies were subject to tax on their profits and companies ' shareholders were also liable to income tax on the dividends that they received , the first major amendment to corporation tax saw it move to a dividend imputation system in 1973 , under which an individual receiving a dividend became entitled to an income tax credit representing the corporation tax already paid by the company paying the dividend . The classical system was reintroduced in 1999 , with the abolition of advance corporation tax and of repayable dividend tax credits . Another change saw the single main rate of tax split into three . Tax competition between jurisdictions reduced the main corporate tax rate from 28 % in 2008 - 2010 to a flat rate of 20 % as of April 2015 .

        The process of fertilization involves a sperm fusing with an ovum . The most common sequence begins with ejaculation during copulation , follows with ovulation , and finishes with fertilization . Various exceptions to this sequence are possible , including artificial insemination , in vitro fertilization , external ejaculation without copulation , or copulation shortly after ovulation . Upon encountering the secondary oocyte , the acrosome of the sperm produces enzymes which allow it to burrow through the outer jelly coat of the egg . The sperm plasma then fuses with the egg 's plasma membrane , the sperm head disconnects from its flagellum and the egg travels down the Fallopian tube to reach the uterus .

        Martí was killed shortly after landing on May 19 , 1895 , at Dos Rios , but Máximo Gomez and Antonio Maceo fought on , taking the war to all parts of Oriente . By the end of June , all of Camagüey was at war . Based on new research in Cuban sources , historian John Lawrence Tone demonstrated that Gomez and Maceo were the first to force the civilian forces to choose sides . `` Either they relocated to the east side of the islands , where the Cubans controlled the mountainous terrain , or they would be accused of supporting the Spanish and be subject to immediate trial and execution . '' Continuing west , they were joined by 1868 war veterans , such as Polish internationalist General Carlos Roloff and Serafín Sánchez in Las Villas , who brought weapons , men and experience to the revolutionaries ' arsenal .

        In the 12th century , luxury increased and bedsteads were made of wood much decorated with inlaid , carved , and painted ornamentation . They also used folding beds , which served as couches by day and had cushions covered with silk laid upon leather . At night a linen sheet was spread and pillows placed , while silk - covered skins served as coverlets . The Carolingian manuscripts show metal bedsteads much higher at the head than at the feet , and this shape continued in use until the 13th century in France , many cushions being added to raise the body to a sloping position . In 12th - century manuscripts , the bedsteads appear much richer , with inlays , carving , and painting , and with embroidered coverlets and mattresses in harmony . Curtains were hung above the bed and a small hanging lamp is often shown .

        On the Origin of Species ( or more completely , On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection , or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life ) , published on 24 November 1859 , is a work of scientific literature by Charles Darwin which is considered to be the foundation of evolutionary biology . Darwin 's book introduced the scientific theory that populations evolve over the course of generations through a process of natural selection . It presented a body of evidence that the diversity of life arose by common descent through a branching pattern of evolution . Darwin included evidence that he had gathered on the Beagle expedition in the 1830s and his subsequent findings from research , correspondence , and experimentation .

( ... ) The objects of sense exist only when they are perceived ; the trees therefore are in the garden ( ... ) no longer than while there is somebody by to perceive them .

        The American entry into World War I came in April 1917 , after more than two and a half years of efforts by President Woodrow Wilson to keep the United States out of the war . Apart from an Anglophile element urging early support for the British , American public opinion reflected that of the president : the sentiment for neutrality was particularly strong among Irish Americans , German Americans and Scandinavian Americans , as well as among church leaders and among women in general . On the other hand , even before World War I had broken out , American opinion had been more negative toward Germany than towards any other country in Europe . Over time , especially after reports of atrocities in Belgium in 1914 and following the sinking of the passenger liner RMS Lusitania in 1915 , the American people increasingly came to see Germany as the aggressor in Europe .

        During the years 1869 -- 1888 of the so - called `` Rewarding Truce '' , lasting for 17 years from the end of the Ten Years ' War in 1878 , there were fundamental social changes in Cuban society . With the abolition of slavery in October 1886 , freedmen joined the ranks of farmers and the urban working class . The economy could no longer sustain itself with the shift and changes ; therefore , many wealthy Cubans lost their property , and joined the urban middle class . The number of sugar mills dropped and efficiency increased : only companies , and the most powerful plantation owners , remained in business followed by the Central Board of Artisans in 1879 , and many more across the island . After his second deportation to Spain in 1878 , José Martí moved to the United States in 1881 . There he mobilized the support of the Cuban exile community , especially in Ybor City ( Tampa area ) and Key West , Florida . His goal was revolution in order to achieve independence from Spain . Martí lobbied against the U.S. annexation of Cuba , which was desired by some politicians in both the U.S. and Cuba .

        The ability to compare ammunition is a direct result of the invention of rifling around the turn of the 16th century . By forcing the bullet to spin as it travels down the barrel of the weapon the bullet 's accuracy greatly increases . At the same time , the rifling leaves marks on the bullet that are indicative of that particular barrel . Prior to mass production of firearms , each barrel and bullet mold was hand made by gunsmiths making them unique . The first successful documented case of forensic firearm examination occurred in 1835 when a member of the Bow Street Runners in London matched a recovered bullet from a murder victim to a specific mold in a suspect 's home confirming that he made the bullet . Further evidence that the bullet maker was the perpetrator was found in his home and he was convicted . As manufacturing and automation replaced hand tools , the ability to compare bullets became impossible due to the standardization of molds within a specific company . However , experts in the field postulated that there were microscopic differences on each barrel left during the manufacturing process . These differences were a result of wear on the machines and since each new weapon caused a tiny amount of wear , each barrel would be slightly different from every other barrel produced by that company . Also , each bullet fired from a specific barrel would be printed with the same marks , allowing investigators to identify the weapon that fired a specific bullet .

        Brain tissue consumes a large amount of energy in proportion to its volume , so large brains place severe metabolic demands on animals . The need to limit body weight in order , for example , to fly , has apparently led to selection for a reduction of brain size in some species , such as bats . Most of the brain 's energy consumption goes into sustaining the electric charge ( membrane potential ) of neurons . Most vertebrate species devote between 2 % and 8 % of basal metabolism to the brain . In primates , however , the percentage is much higher -- in humans it rises to 20 -- 25 % . The energy consumption of the brain does not vary greatly over time , but active regions of the cerebral cortex consume somewhat more energy than inactive regions ; this forms the basis for the functional brain imaging methods PET , fMRI , and NIRS . The brain typically gets most of its energy from oxygen - dependent metabolism of glucose ( i.e. , blood sugar ) , but ketones provide a major alternative source , together with contributions from medium chain fatty acids ( caprylic and heptanoic acids ) , lactate , acetate , and possibly amino acids .

        John Brown 's raid on Harper 's Ferry ( also known as John Brown 's raid or The raid on Harper 's Ferry ) was an effort by armed abolitionist John Brown to initiate an armed slave revolt in 1859 by taking over a United States arsenal at Harpers Ferry , Virginia . Brown 's party of 22 was defeated by a company of U.S. Marines , led by First Lieutenant Israel Greene . Colonel Robert E. Lee was in overall command of the operation to retake the arsenal . John Brown had originally asked Harriet Tubman and Frederick Douglass , both of whom he had met in his transformative years as an abolitionist in Springfield , Massachusetts , to join him in his raid , but Tubman was prevented by illness and Douglass declined , as he believed Brown 's plan would fail .

        The small intestine or small bowel is the part of the gastrointestinal tract between the stomach and the large intestine , and is where most of the end absorption of food takes place . The small intestine has three distinct regions -- the duodenum , jejunum , and ileum . The duodenum is the shortest part of the small intestine and is where preparation for absorption begins . It also receives bile and pancreatic juice through the pancreatic duct , controlled by the sphincter of Oddi . The primary function of the small intestine is the absorption of nutrients and minerals from food , using small finger - like protrusions called villi .

        The theory is generally associated with Hirschman . He presented a complete theoretical formulation of the strategy . Underdeveloped countries display common characteristics : low levels of GNI per capita and slow GNI per capita growth , large income inequalities and widespread poverty , low levels of productivity , great dependence on agriculture , a backward industrial structure , a high proportion of consumption and low savings , high rates of population growth and dependency burdens , high unemployment and underemployment , technological backwardness and dualism ( existence of both traditional and modern sectors ) . In a less - developed country , these characteristics lead to scarce resources or inadequate infrastructure to exploit these resources . With a lack of investors and entrepreneurs , cash flows can not be directed into various sectors that influence balanced economic growth .

        The gymnosperms are a group of seed - producing plants that includes conifers , cycads , Ginkgo , and gnetophytes . The term `` gymnosperm '' comes from the Greek composite word γυμνόσπερμος ( γυμνός gymnos , `` naked '' and σπέρμα sperma , `` seed '' ) , meaning `` naked seeds '' . The name is based on the unenclosed condition of their seeds ( called ovules in their unfertilized state ) . The non-encased condition of their seeds stands in contrast to the seeds and ovules of flowering plants ( angiosperms ) , which are enclosed within an ovary . Gymnosperm seeds develop either on the surface of scales or leaves , which are often modified to form cones , or solitary as in Yew , Torreya , Ginkgo .

        A primary ossification center is the first area of a bone to start ossifying . It usually appears during prenatal development in the central part of each developing bone . In long bones the primary centers occur in the diaphysis / shaft and in irregular bones the primary centers occur usually in the body of the bone . Most bones have only one primary center ( e.g. all long bones ) but some irregular bones such as the os coxa ( hip ) and vertebrae have multiple primary centers .

        This Academy Awards ceremony is notable for Peter Finch becoming the first posthumous winner of an Oscar for acting , a feat matched only by fellow Australian Heath Ledger 32 years later ; Finch had suffered a fatal heart attack in mid-January . Beatrice Straight set another record by becoming the actor with the shortest performance ever in a film to win an acting Oscar , with only five minutes and two seconds of screen - time in Network . Network , along with All the President 's Men , were the two biggest champs of the ceremony with four Oscars each , but Best Picture and Best Director ultimately went to Rocky .

        A justice of the peace ( JP ) is a judicial officer , of a lower or puisne court , elected or appointed by means of a commission ( letters patent ) to keep the peace . In past centuries the term commissioner of the peace was often used with the same meaning . Depending on the jurisdiction , such justices dispense summary justice or merely deal with local administrative applications in common law jurisdictions . Justices of the peace are appointed or elected from the citizens of the jurisdiction in which they serve , and are ( or were ) usually not required to have any formal legal education in order to qualify for the office . Some jurisdictions have varying forms of training for JPs .

        As a technique for drawing , the closest predecesor to the pencil was Silverpoint until in 1565 ( some sources say as early as 1500 ) , a large deposit of graphite was discovered on the approach to Grey Knotts from the hamlet of Seathwaite in Borrowdale parish , Cumbria , England . This particular deposit of graphite was extremely pure and solid , and it could easily be sawn into sticks . It remains the only large - scale deposit of graphite ever found in this solid form . Chemistry was in its infancy and the substance was thought to be a form of lead . Consequently , it was called plumbago ( Latin for `` lead ore '' ) . Because the pencil core is still referred to as `` lead '' , or a `` lead '' , many people have the misconception that the graphite in the pencil is lead , and the black core of pencils is still referred to as lead , even though it never contained the element lead . The words for pencil in German ( bleistift ) , Irish ( peann luaidhe ) , Arabic ( قلم رصاص qalam raṣāṣ ) , and some other languages literally mean lead pen .

        Dollree Mapp was an employee in the illegal gambling rackets dominated by Cleveland rackets kingpin Shon Birns . On May 23 , 1957 , police officers in Cleveland , Ohio , received an anonymous tip by phone that Virgil Ogletree , a numbers operator who was wanted for questioning in the bombing of rival numbers racketeer and future boxing promoter Don King 's home three days earlier , might be found at Mapp 's house , as well as illegal betting slips and equipment employed in the `` California Gold '' numbers operation set up by Mapp 's boyfriend Edward Keeling . Three officers went to the home and asked for permission to enter , but Mapp , after consulting her lawyer by telephone , refused to admit them without a search warrant . Two officers left , and one remained , watching the house from across the street .

        • Doctor Poison appears in the DC Extended Universe film Wonder Woman ( 2017 ) , portrayed by Elena Anaya . In this adaptation , her identity is Isabel Maru , a Spanish chemist recruited by General Erich Ludendorff to create chemical weapons for the German army . Due to facial disfigurement , she wears a ceramic mask over the left side of her face . It marks the character 's first live action appearance , although the setting is World War I rather than the World War II setting of the comic books . When Steve Trevor steals a book of Doctor Maru 's notes on her new chemical weapons that would render the gas masks useless against them , he crash - lands on Themyscira during his escape , which alerts Diana to the current war . She initially believes that Ares is directly responsible for the war , but later learns that all he did was provide a few ideas for the weapons to the likes of Maru while the decision to use the weapons was still the choice of the humans themselves . Ares attempts to sway Diana to his point of view by offering her a chance to kill Maru for her sins and part in the war , but Diana rejects his offer upon realizing of Trevor 's sacrifice that inspires her to recognize that she must accept humanity for its flaws rather than condemn it for not being perfect . This leads Diana to spare Maru out of mercy , who then flees .

        DNA usually occurs as linear chromosomes in eukaryotes , and circular chromosomes in prokaryotes . The set of chromosomes in a cell makes up its genome ; the human genome has approximately 3 billion base pairs of DNA arranged into 46 chromosomes . The information carried by DNA is held in the sequence of pieces of DNA called genes . Transmission of genetic information in genes is achieved via complementary base pairing . For example , in transcription , when a cell uses the information in a gene , the DNA sequence is copied into a complementary RNA sequence through the attraction between the DNA and the correct RNA nucleotides . Usually , this RNA copy is then used to make a matching protein sequence in a process called translation , which depends on the same interaction between RNA nucleotides . In alternative fashion , a cell may simply copy its genetic information in a process called DNA replication . The details of these functions are covered in other articles ; here the focus is on the interactions between DNA and other molecules that mediate the function of the genome .

        1877 is also the year that the trainer Etienne de Mestre won his fourth Melbourne Cup with Chester owned by Hon . James White . In 1878 , as in previous years De Mestre fielded more than one horse . He entered the favourite Firebell ( owned by W.S. Cox ) who finished last , Chester ( owned by Hon . James White ) the previous year 's winner who fell , and Calamia ( owned by de Mestre ) who , though less fancied , won easily by two lengths . First prize was £ 1,790 , the crowd was 80,000 and there were 30 starters . De Mestre 's 1878 win with Calamia brought to 5 the number of Melbourne Cups he had won . This record was not to be matched for nearly 100 years when the trainer Bart Cummings won his fifth Melbourne Cup in 1975 . Bart Cummings , regarded as the best Australian horse trainer of all time , went on to win 12 Melbourne Cups to 2008 .

        The Roosevelt Corollary was an addition to the Monroe Doctrine articulated by President Theodore Roosevelt in his State of the Union address in 1904 after the Venezuela Crisis of 1902 -- 03 . The corollary states that the United States will intervene in conflicts between European countries and Latin American countries to enforce legitimate claims of the European powers , rather than having the Europeans press their claims directly .

        Within eukaryotic cells , DNA is organized into long structures called chromosomes . During cell division these chromosomes are duplicated in the process of DNA replication , providing each cell its own complete set of chromosomes . Eukaryotic organisms ( animals , plants , fungi and protists ) store most of their DNA inside the cell nucleus and some of their DNA in organelles , such as mitochondria or chloroplasts . In contrast prokaryotes ( bacteria and archaea ) store their DNA only in the cytoplasm . Within the eukaryotic chromosomes , chromatin proteins such as histones compact and organize DNA . These compact structures guide the interactions between DNA and other proteins , helping control which parts of the DNA are transcribed .

        A regulatory site ( also known as an `` allosteric site '' ) is a site on an allosteric protein to which a modulator molecule ( or allosteric regulator ) binds . This ligand - binding site on a receptor or enzyme is distinct from the active site . Allosteric modulators alter enzyme activity by binding to the regulatory site . Some allosteric regulators activate enzymes , while others inhibit them . The working hypothesis is that when allosteric regulators bind to the regulatory site , the protein undergoes conformational changes which changes the enzyme 's activity .

        In the aftermath of the disputed 1824 presidential election , the separate factions took on many characteristics of parties in their own right . Adams ' supporters , in league with Clay , favored modernization , banks , industrial development and federal spending for roads and other internal improvements , which the Old Republicans and the Jackson men usually opposed . Writing in his personal journal on December 13 , 1826 , President Adams noted the difficulty he faced in attempting to be nonpartisan in appointing men to office :

        `` You 'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine '' ( written by Kenny Gamble & Leon Huff ) is a song performed by R&B singer Lou Rawls on his 1976 album All Things in Time . The song proved to be Rawls ' breakthrough hit , reaching number one on both the R&B and Easy Listening charts as well as number four on the dance chart and number two on the US Billboard Hot 100 , where it was kept from the top spot for two weeks by `` You Should Be Dancing '' by The Bee Gees and `` ( Shake , Shake , Shake ) Shake Your Booty '' by KC and the Sunshine Band , respectively . This was the first and only time that one of Rawls ' records managed to reach Billboard 's pop top ten . It was the first big hit for Philadelphia International to feature the reformulated MFSB , after many of the original members left Gamble and Huff for better opportunities . The song started Rawls ' live shows from 1977 on .

        The Earth 's magnetic field serves to deflect most of the solar wind , whose charged particles would otherwise strip away the ozone layer that protects the Earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation . One stripping mechanism is for gas to be caught in bubbles of magnetic field , which are ripped off by solar winds . Calculations of the loss of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere of Mars , resulting from scavenging of ions by the solar wind , indicate that the dissipation of the magnetic field of Mars caused a near total loss of its atmosphere .

        Uncle Tom 's Cabin first appeared as a 40 - week serial in The National Era , an abolitionist periodical , starting with the June 5 , 1851 , issue . It was originally intended as a shorter narrative that would run for only a few weeks . Stowe expanded the story significantly , however , and it was instantly popular , such that several protests were sent to the Era office when she missed an issue . Because of the story 's popularity , the publisher John P. Jewett contacted Stowe about turning the serial into a book . While Stowe questioned if anyone would read Uncle Tom 's Cabin in book form , she eventually consented to the request .

        Located within the thylakoid membrane and the inner mitochondrial membrane , ATP synthase consists of two regions F and F. F causes rotation of F and is made of c - ring and subunits a , b , d , F6. F is made of α , β , γ , δ ( \ displaystyle \ alpha , \ beta , \ gamma , \ delta ) subunits . F has a water soluble par that can hydrolyze ATP . F on the other hand has mainly hydrophobic regions . F F creates a pathway for protons movement across the membrane .

        The formation of ATP from ADP and P is energetically unfavorable and would normally proceed in the reverse direction . In order to drive this reaction forward , ATPase couples ATP synthesis during cellular respiration to an electrochemical gradient created by the difference in proton ( H ) concentration across the mitochondrial membrane in eukaryotes or the plasma membrane in bacteria . During photosynthesis in plants , ATP is synthesized by ATPase using a proton gradient created in the thylakoid lumen through the thylakoid membrane and into the chloroplast stroma .

        Somatic motor neurons originate in the central nervous system , project their axons to skeletal muscles ( such as the muscles of the limbs , abdominal , and intercostal muscles ) , which are involved in locomotion . The three types of these neurons are the alpha efferent neurons , beta efferent neurons , and gamma efferent neurons . They are called efferent to indicate the flow of information from the central nervous system ( CNS ) to the periphery .

        In healthy adults , there are two normal heart sounds , often described as a lub and a dub ( or dup ) , that occur in sequence with each heartbeat . These are the first heart sound ( S ) and second heart sound ( S ) , produced by the closing of the atrioventricular valves and semilunar valves , respectively . In addition to these normal sounds , a variety of other sounds may be present including heart murmurs , adventitious sounds , and gallop rhythms S and S .

        Transcription occurs in the cell nucleus , where the DNA is held . The DNA structure of the cell is made up of two helixes made up of sugar and phosphate held together by hydrogen bonds between the bases of opposite strands . The sugar and the phosphate in each strand are joined together by stronger phosphodiester covalent bonds . The DNA is `` unzipped '' ( disruption of hydrogen bonds between different single strands ) by the enzyme helicase , leaving the single nucleotide chain open to be copied . RNA polymerase reads the DNA strand from the 3 - prime ( 3 ' ) end to the 5 - prime ( 5 ' ) end , while it synthesizes a single strand of messenger RNA in the 5 ' - to - 3 ' direction . The general RNA structure is very similar to the DNA structure , but in RNA the nucleotide uracil takes the place that thymine occupies in DNA . The single strand of mRNA leaves the nucleus through nuclear pores , and migrates into the cytoplasm .

        The Second Great Awakening occurred in several episodes and over different denominations ; however , the revivals were very similar . As the most effective form of evangelizing during this period , revival meetings cut across geographical boundaries , and the movement quickly spread throughout Kentucky , Tennessee and southern Ohio . Each denomination had assets that allowed it to thrive on the frontier . The Methodists had an efficient organization that depended on itinerant ministers , known as circuit riders , who sought out people in remote frontier locations . The circuit riders came from among the common people , which helped them establish rapport with the frontier families they hoped to convert .

        A muscle relaxant is a drug that affects skeletal muscle function and decreases the muscle tone . It may be used to alleviate symptoms such as muscle spasms , pain , and hyperreflexia . The term `` muscle relaxant '' is used to refer to two major therapeutic groups : neuromuscular blockers and spasmolytics . Neuromuscular blockers act by interfering with transmission at the neuromuscular end plate and have no central nervous system ( CNS ) activity . They are often used during surgical procedures and in intensive care and emergency medicine to cause temporary paralysis . Spasmolytics , also known as `` centrally acting '' muscle relaxants , are used to alleviate musculoskeletal pain and spasms and to reduce spasticity in a variety of neurological conditions . While both neuromuscular blockers and spasmolytics are often grouped together as muscle relaxants , the term is commonly used to refer to spasmolytics only .

        A vanishing point is a point on the image plane of a perspective drawing where the two - dimensional perspective projections ( or drawings ) of mutually parallel lines in three - dimensional space appear to converge . When the set of parallel lines is perpendicular to a picture plane , the construction is known as one - point perspective , and their vanishing point corresponds to the oculus , or `` eye point '' , from which the image should be viewed for correct perspective geometry . Traditional linear drawings use objects with one to three sets of parallels , defining one to three vanishing points .

        From September 1947 , Toyota 's small - sized vehicles were sold under the name `` Toyopet '' ( トヨペット ) . The first vehicle sold under this name was the Toyopet SA , but it also included vehicles such as the Toyopet SB light truck , Toyopet Stout light truck , Toyopet Crown , Toyopet Master , and the Toyopet Corona . The word `` Toyopet ( Japanese article ) '' was a nickname given to the Toyota SA due to its small size , as the result of a naming contest the Toyota Company organized in 1947 . However , when Toyota eventually entered the American market in 1957 with the Crown , the name was not well received due to connotations of toys and pets . The name was soon dropped for the American market , but continued in other markets until the mid-1960s .

        In 1972 , the first commercially available video game console , the Magnavox Odyssey , had a light gun accessory , the Shooting Gallery . This was the first involvement of Nintendo in video games . According to Martin Picard in the International Journal of Computer Game Research : `` in 1971 , Nintendo had -- even before the marketing of the first home console in the United States -- an alliance with the American pioneer Magnavox to develop and produce optoelectronic guns for the Odyssey ( released in 1972 ) , since it was similar to what Nintendo was able to offer in the Japanese toy market in 1970s '' .

        Their first video arcade game was 1975 's EVR Race ; a handful of others followed in the next several years , Radar Scope and Donkey Kong being among the most famous of these . The early 1980s saw Nintendo 's video game division ( led by Yokoi ) creating some of its most famous arcade titles . The massively popular Donkey Kong was created in 1981 , with Shigeru Miyamoto as its mastermind , and released in the arcades and on the Atari 2600 , Intellivision , and ColecoVision video game systems ( although Nintendo themselves generally had no involvement with these early console ports ) . This release method would be used on several later Nintendo arcade games of this same period , including the original Mario Bros. ( not to be confused with the later Super Mario Bros . ) In addition to this arcade and dedicated console game activity , Nintendo was testing the consumer handheld video game waters with the Game & Watch .

With the Chicago Bears ' win in Super Bowl XX and the Chicago Cubs ' own World Series championship in 2016 , all Chicago sports teams have won at least one major championship since 1985 . Meanwhile , the Astros themselves made it back to the World Series in 2017 , but this time as an AL team , where they defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers in seven games , resulting in Houston 's first professional sports championship since the 2006 -- 07 Houston Dynamo won their back - to - back MLS Championships .

        In 1933 , the Roosevelt administration made the first attempt at establishing a national minimum wage , when a $0.25 per hour standard was set as part of the National Industrial Recovery Act . However , in the 1935 court case Schechter Poultry Corp. v. United States ( 295 U.S. 495 ) , the US Supreme Court declared the act unconstitutional , and the minimum wage was abolished . In 1938 , the minimum wage was re-established pursuant to the Fair Labor Standards Act , once again at $0.25 per hour ( $4.78 in 2017 dollars ) . In 1941 , the Supreme Court upheld the Fair Labor Standards Act in United States v. Darby Lumber Co. , holding that Congress had the power under the Commerce Clause to regulate employment conditions .

        In 1910 , in conjunction with advocacy work led by Florence Kelley of the National Consumer League , the Women 's Trade Union League ( WTLU ) of Massachusetts under the leadership of Elizabeth Evans took up the cause of minimum wage legislation in Massachusetts . Over the next two years , a coalition of social reform groups and labor advocates in Boston pushed for minimum wage legislation in the state . In 1912 , Massachusetts passed the first American minimum wage legislation , which established a state commission for recommending non-compulsory minimum wages for women and children . Within eight years , at least thirteen U.S. states and the District of Columbia would pass minimum wage laws , with pressure being placed on state legislatures by the National Consumers League in a coalition with other women 's voluntary associations and organized labor . The United States Supreme Court of the Lochner era consistently invalidated compulsory minimum wage laws . Advocates for these minimum wage laws hoped that they would be upheld under the precedent of Muller v. Oregon , which upheld maximum working hours laws for women on the grounds that women required special protection that men did not . However , the Court did not extend this principle to minimum wage laws , considering the latter as interfering with the ability of employers to freely negotiate wage contracts with employees .

        When following the western side of the African coastline from the equator , however , the Cape of Good Hope marks the point where a ship begins to travel more eastward than southward . Thus , the first modern rounding of the cape in 1488 by Portuguese explorer Bartolomeu Dias was a milestone in the attempts by the Portuguese to establish direct trade relations with the Far East ( although Herodotus mentioned a claim that the Phoenicians had done so far earlier ) . Dias called the cape Cabo das Tormentas ( `` Cape of Storms '' ; Dutch : Stormkaap ) , which was the original name of the `` Cape of Good Hope '' .

        • The right-most label conveys the top - level domain ; for example , the domain name www.example.com belongs to the top - level domain com .
        • The hierarchy of domains descends from the right to the left label in the name ; each label to the left specifies a subdivision , or subdomain of the domain to the right . For example : the label example specifies a node example.com as a subdomain of the com domain , and www is a label to create www.example.com , a subdomain of example.com . Each label may contain from 1 to 63 octets . The empty label is reserved for the root node and when fully qualified is expressed as the empty label terminated by a dot . The full domain name may not exceed a total length of 253 ASCII characters in its textual representation . Thus , when using a single character per label , the limit is 127 levels : 127 characters plus 126 dots have a total length of 253 . In practice , some domain registries may have shorter limits .
        • A hostname is a domain name that has at least one associated IP address . For example , the domain names www.example.com and example.com are also hostnames , whereas the com domain is not . However , other top - level domains , particularly country code top - level domains , may indeed have an IP address , and if so , they are also hostnames .
        • Hostnames impose restrictions on the characters allowed in the corresponding domain name . A valid hostname is also a valid domain name , but a valid domain name may not necessarily be valid as a hostname .

        Within the oral mucosa ( a mucous membrane ) lining the mouth and also on the tongue and palates and mouth floor , are the minor salivary glands ; their secretions are mainly mucous and are innervated by the facial nerve ( the seventh cranial nerve ) . The glands also secrete amylase a first stage in the breakdown of food acting on the carbohydrate in the food to transform the starch content into maltose . There are other glands on the surface of the tongue that encircle taste buds on the back part of the tongue and these also produce lingual lipase . Lipase is a digestive enzyme that catalyses the hydrolysis of lipids ( fats ) . These glands are termed Von Ebner 's glands which have also been shown to have another function in the secretion of histatins which offer an early defense ( outside of the immune system ) against microbes in food , when it makes contact with these glands on the tongue tissue . Sensory information can stimulate the secretion of saliva providing the necessary fluid for the tongue to work with and also to ease swallowing of the food .

      • The French Marquise de Créquy wrote in her Souvenirs that the words `` Grand Dieu , sauvez le Roi ! '' were indeed composed by Jean - Baptiste Lully in gratitude for the survival by Louis XIV of an anal fistula operation . ( The surgical knife purpose - made for the occasion is on display in the Musée d'histoire de la médecine . ) Allegedly , Lully had set words by Marie de Brinon to music , and Créquy claimed that the tune was later plagiarised by Handel , and so adopted by the British as `` un de leurs air nationaux '' . ( The entire story might have been intended as a joke . ) Translated into Latin under the title Domine , Salvum Fac Regem , it became the French anthem until 1792 . After the Battle of Culloden , the Hanover dynasty supposedly adopted this melody as the British anthem .

        The 1836 article and other sources make it clear that this verse was not used soon after 1745 , and certainly before the song became accepted as the British national anthem in the 1780s and 1790s . It was included as an integral part of the song in the Oxford Book of Eighteenth Century Verse of 1926 , although erroneously referencing the `` fourth verse '' to the Gentleman 's Magazine article of 1745 .

        In 1908 , the first five - day workweek in the United States was instituted by a New England cotton mill so that Jewish workers would not have to work on the Sabbath from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday . In 1926 , Henry Ford began shutting down his automotive factories for all of Saturday and Sunday . In 1929 , the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America Union was the first union to demand a five - day workweek and receive it . After that , the rest of the United States slowly followed , but it was not until 1940 , when a provision of the 1938 Fair Labor Standards Act mandating a maximum 40 - hour workweek went into effect , that the two - day weekend was adopted nationwide .

        His desire for a heart notably contrasts with the Scarecrow 's desire for brains , reflecting a common debate between the relative importance of the mind and the emotions . This occasions philosophical debate between the two friends as to why their own choices are superior ; neither convinces the other , and Dorothy , listening , is unable to decide which one is right . Symbolically , because they remain with Dorothy throughout her quest , she is provided with both and need not select . The Tin Woodman states unequivocally that he has neither heart nor brain , but cares nothing for the loss of his brain . Towards the end of the novel , though , Glinda praises his brain as not quite that of the Scarecrow 's .

        There are several major additional characters introduced by the television series and numerous narrative details and the plotline differ radically from the source novel . For example , the planned Nazi pre-emptive nuclear strike on Japan , `` Operation Dandelion , '' is apparently being prevented only by Hitler 's personal refusal to authorise it , leading Heydrich and the faction demanding pre-emptive war to plot the Führer 's assassination . In addition , Hawthorne Abendsen does not appear in the first season of the television version and The Grasshopper Lies Heavy is a series of newsreel films depicting multiple alternative realities rather than a novel ( although this idea may actually be borrowed from Dick 's later novel Valis which features a mysterious film depicting yet another dystopian alternative history of the USA ) . As of the Season 1 finale , these films are being tracked down by SS agents like Blake for dispatch to Hitler for an as - yet - unknown purpose .

        An elevator with a counterbalance approximates an ideal Atwood machine and thereby relieves the driving motor from the load of holding the elevator cab -- it has to overcome only weight difference and inertia of the two masses . The same principle is used for funicular railways with two connected railway cars on inclined tracks , and for the elevators on the Eiffel Tower which counterbalance each other . Ski lifts are another example , where the gondolas move on a closed ( continuous ) pulley system up and down the mountain . The ski lift is similar to the counter-weighted elevator , but with a constraining force provided by the cable in the vertical dimension thereby achieving work in both the horizontal and vertical dimensions . Boat lifts are another type of counter-weighted elevator system approximating an Atwood machine .

        In Moulmein , the narrator -- Orwell , writing in the first person -- is a police officer during a period of intense anti-European sentiment . Although his intellectual sympathies lie with the Burmese , his official role makes him a symbol of the oppressive imperial power . As such , he is subjected to constant baiting and jeering by the local people .

        +

        The essay describes the experience of the English narrator , possibly Orwell himself , called upon to shoot an aggressive elephant while working as a police officer in Burma . Because the locals expect him to do the job , he does so against his better judgment , his anguish increased by the elephant 's slow and painful death . The story is regarded as a metaphor for British imperialism , and for Orwell 's view that `` when the white man turns tyrant it is his own freedom that he destroys . ''

        India ranks second worldwide in farm output . Agriculture and allied sectors like forestry , logging and fishing accounted for 17 % of the GDP and employed 49 % of its total workforce in 2014 . Agriculture accounted for 23 % of GDP , and employed 59 % of the country 's total workforce in 2016 . As the Indian economy has diversified and grown , agriculture 's contribution to GDP has steadily declined from 1951 to 2011 , yet it is still the country 's largest employment source and a significant piece of its overall socio - economic development . Crop - yield - per - unit - area of all crops has grown since 1950 , due to the special emphasis placed on agriculture in the five - year plans and steady improvements in irrigation , technology , application of modern agricultural practices and provision of agricultural credit and subsidies since the Green Revolution in India . However , international comparisons reveal the average yield in India is generally 30 % to 50 % of the highest average yield in the world . The states of Uttar Pradesh , Punjab , Haryana , Madhya Pradesh , Andhra Pradesh , Telangana , Bihar , West Bengal , Gujarat and Maharashtra are key contributors to Indian agriculture .

        The United States two - dollar bill ( $2 ) is a current denomination of U.S. currency . The third U.S. President ( 1801 -- 09 ) , Thomas Jefferson , is featured on the obverse of the note . The reverse features an engraving of the painting The Declaration of Independence by John Trumbull . Throughout the $2 bill 's pre-1929 life as a large - sized note , it was issued as a United States Note , National Bank Note , silver certificate , Treasury or `` Coin '' Note and Federal Reserve Bank Note . When U.S. currency was changed to its current size , the $2 bill was issued only as a United States Note . Production went on until 1966 , when the series was discontinued . Ten years passed before the $2 bill was reissued as a Federal Reserve Note with a new reverse design . Two - dollar bills are seldom seen in circulation as a result of banking policies with businesses which has resulted in low production numbers due to lack of demand . This comparative scarcity in circulation , coupled with a lack of public knowledge that the bill is still in production and circulation , has also inspired urban legends and occasionally has created problems for people trying to use the bill to make purchases .

        From 1976 to 1983 , several states voluntarily raised their purchase ages to 19 ( or , less commonly , 20 or 21 ) , in part to combat drunk driving fatalities . In 1984 , Congress passed the National Minimum Drinking Age Act , which required states to raise their ages for purchase and public possession to 21 by October 1986 or lose 10 % of their federal highway funds . By mid-1988 , all 50 states and the District of Columbia had raised their purchase ages to 21 ( but not Puerto Rico , Guam , or the Virgin Islands , see Additional Notes below ) . South Dakota and Wyoming were the final two states to comply with the age 21 mandate . The current drinking age of 21 remains a point of contention among many Americans , because of it being higher than the age of majority ( 18 in most states ) and higher than the drinking ages of most other countries . The National Minimum Drinking Age Act is also seen as a congressional sidestep of the tenth amendment . Although debates have not been highly publicized , a few states have proposed legislation to lower their drinking age , while Guam has raised its drinking age to 21 in July 2010 .

        The lion 's mane jellyfish ( Cyanea capillata ) , also known as the giant jellyfish or the hair jelly , is the largest known species of jellyfish . Its range is confined to cold , boreal waters of the Arctic , northern Atlantic , and northern Pacific Oceans . It is common in the English Channel , Irish Sea , North Sea and in western Scandinavian waters south to Kattegat and Øresund . It may also drift in to the south - western part of the Baltic Sea ( where it can not breed due to the low salinity ) . Similar jellyfish -- which may be the same species -- are known to inhabit seas near Australia and New Zealand . The largest recorded specimen found washed up on the shore of Massachusetts Bay in 1870 , had a bell with a diameter of 2.3 metres ( 7 ft 6 in ) and tentacles 37.0 m ( 121.4 ft ) long . Lion 's mane jellyfish have been observed below 42 ° N latitude for some time in the larger bays of the east coast of the United States .

          It was suggested that the interior of the 45 metre ( 147 ft ) wide dome should be covered with a mosaic decoration to make the most of the available light coming through the circular windows of the drum and through the lantern . Brunelleschi had proposed the vault to glimmer with resplendent gold , but his death in 1446 put an end to this project , and the walls of the dome were whitewashed . Grand Duke Cosimo I de ' Medici decided to have the dome painted with a representation of The Last Judgment . This enormous work , 3,600 metres2 ( 38 750 ft2 ) of painted surface , was started in 1568 by Giorgio Vasari and Federico Zuccari and would last till 1579 . The upper portion , near the lantern , representing The 24 Elders of Apoc. 4 was finished by Vasari before his death in 1574 . Federico Zuccari and a number of collaborators , such as Domenico Cresti , finished the other portions : ( from top to bottom ) Choirs of Angels ; Christ , Mary and Saints ; Virtues , Gifts of the Holy Spirit and Beatitudes ; and at the bottom of the cupola : Capital Sins and Hell . These frescoes are considered Zuccari 's greatest work . But the quality of the work is uneven because of the input of different artists and the different techniques . Vasari had used true fresco , while Zuccari had painted in secco . During the restoration work , which ended in 1995 , the entire pictorial cycle of The Last Judgment was photographed with specially designed equipment and all the information collected in a catalogue . All the restoration information along with reconstructed images of the frescos were stored and managed in the Thesaurus Florentinus computer system .

          Jack McCoy brings 24 years of experience with him as he is appointed executive assistant district attorney by Adam Schiff ( Steven Hill ) in the season - five premiere episode `` Second Opinion '' . He quickly establishes himself as a more unconventional , ruthless litigator than his predecessor , Ben Stone ( Michael Moriarty ) . He often bends -- and sometimes breaks -- trial rules to get convictions , finds tenuous rationales for charging defendants with crimes when the original charges fail to stick , and charges innocent people to frighten them into testifying against others . McCoy is found in contempt of court 80 times for such behavior , and his tactics occasionally incur negative publicity for the DA 's office . His underlying motivation , however , is not , he maintains , corruption , but a sincere desire to see justice done . To that end , McCoy has gone after defendants accused of perverting the justice system to arrange wrongful convictions with just as much determination as his more mundane cases . Such aggressive actions in the courts have earned him the nickname `` Hang ' em High McCoy '' . He has subsequently developed a reputation with both colleagues and rival attorneys , once being referred to as `` the top of the legal food chain '' by a rival attorney during a trial .

          The military convention between Bulgaria and the Central Powers laid down the general plan for its campaign against the Kingdom of Serbia . It severely limited the control of the Bulgarian High Command over the Bulgarian 1st Army , which was designated part of a combined German , Bulgarian and Austro - Hungarian force commanded by Field Marshal August von Mackensen . He had recently led the German and Austro - Hungarian armies in the highly successful and victorious Gorlice -- Tarnów Offensive of the Central Powers against the Russian army on the Eastern Front . His army group was created specifically to wage war against the Serbian army in the pre-1913 borders of the country ( `` Old Serbia '' ) , to defeat it wherever it found it and to open the land route between Hungary and Bulgaria . As commander , Mackensen acted independently and received his directives only from the German High Command . However , the field marshal 's orders to his Bulgarian forces had to be relayed to the commander of the 1st Army by the Bulgarian General Staff , which left room for the latter to intervene when needed . According to the convention , the Bulgarian commander - in - chief retained full and direct control over the Bulgarian 2nd Army and its operations in Vardar Macedonia .

          Although photosynthesis is performed differently by different species , the process always begins when energy from light is absorbed by proteins called reaction centres that contain green chlorophyll pigments . In plants , these proteins are held inside organelles called chloroplasts , which are most abundant in leaf cells , while in bacteria they are embedded in the plasma membrane . In these light - dependent reactions , some energy is used to strip electrons from suitable substances , such as water , producing oxygen gas . The hydrogen freed by the splitting of water is used in the creation of two further compounds that act as an immediate energy storage means : reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate ( NADPH ) and adenosine triphosphate ( ATP ) , the `` energy currency '' of cells .

          In the light - dependent reactions ( mainly three vital reaction steps : ( I ) Hill and Bendall 's Z - scheme of cyclic and non-cyclic reactions , ( II ) Mitchell 's chemi - osmosis for ATP synthesis and ( III ) Dolai 's S - state diagrams in water - splitting ) , one molecule of the pigment chlorophyll absorbs one photon and loses one electron . This electron is passed to a modified form of chlorophyll called pheophytin , which passes the electron to a quinone molecule , starting the flow of electrons down an electron transport chain that leads to the ultimate reduction of NADP to NADPH . In addition , this creates a proton gradient ( energy gradient ) across the chloroplast membrane , which is used by ATP synthase in the synthesis of ATP .

          Graphically bounding the production set for fixed input quantities , the PPF curve shows the maximum possible production level of one commodity for any given production level of the other , given the existing state of technology . By doing so , it defines productive efficiency in the context of that production set : a point on the frontier indicates efficient use of the available inputs ( such as points B , D and C in the graph ) , a point beneath the curve ( such as A ) indicates inefficiency , and a point beyond the curve ( such as X ) indicates impossibility .

          The formation of a Subhan political party on national level was seen as essential by 1901 . The first stage of its formation was the meeting held at Lucknow in September 1906 , with participation of representatives from all over India . The decision for re-consideration to form the all Indian Muslim political party was taken and further proceedings were adjourned until the next meeting of All India Muhammadan Educational Conference . The Simla Deputation reconsidered the issue in October 1906 and decided to frame the objectives of the party on the occasion of the annual meeting of Educational Conference ; that was later , scheduled to be held at Dhaka . Meanwhile , Nawab Salimullah Khan published a detailed scheme through which he suggested the party to be named All - India Muslim Confederacy . Pursuant upon the decisions taken earlier in Lucknow meeting and later in Simla ; the annual meeting of the All - India Muhammadan Educational Conference was held at Dhaka that continued from 27 December , until 30 December 1906 . that was headed by both Nawab Waqar - ul - Mulk and Nawab Muhasan - ul - Mulk ( the Secretary of the Muhammaden Educational Conference ) ; in which he explained its objectives and stressed the unity of the Muslims under the banner of an association . It was formally proposed by Nawab Salimullah Khan and supported by Hakim Ajmal Khan , Maulana Muhammad Ali Jauhar , Zafar Ali Khan , Syed Nabiullah Bar at Law Lucknow and Syed Zahur Ahmad an eminent lawyer and several others . The political party was established at the end of the conference . The Founding meeting was hosted by Nawab Sir Khwaja Salimullah and attended by three thousand delegates , while Ameer Ali , Sir Mian Muhammad Shafi were also the founding fathers who attended this meeting . The name `` All - India Muslim League '' was proposed by Sir Mian Muhammad Shafi . Sir Agha Khan III was appointed its first president . Fifty eight delegates from all over the Subcontinent were the founding members of League . The League 's constitution was framed in 1907 in Karachi . In 1910 , Nawaab Syed Shamsul Huda selected as the president of the party .

          Elsa has literally frozen Storybrooke , and hopes to find her sister , Anna ( Elizabeth Lail ) . She accompanies Emma Swan ( Jennifer Morrison ) to try to break down the wall of ice she created around Storybrooke , but her powers are n't strong enough to melt the barrier . The two , along with Hook , pay Gold a visit and to find out if he has known Anna based on the necklace Elsa found in his pawn shop . Belle uses the fake dagger to `` command '' Gold to tell the truth but it fails , as he knows nothing about Elsa or Anna , and wishes them the best of luck finding her . At the same time , Robin Hood ( Sean Maguire ) , Marian , and Roland visit `` Any Given Sundae , '' where the Snow Queen ( Elizabeth Mitchell ) serves them ice cream , but unknown to them she casts a spell on the ice cream cone that she gave Marian . Afterwards , the family joins the other residents at the Mayor 's office , as Mary Margaret ( Ginnifer Goodwin ) , who is still trying to balance both maternal and mayoral duties , is holding the first annual `` Mayor 's Fireside Chat , '' where she assures the citizens that they are no longer afraid of Regina 's influence , but it appears that they want Mary Margaret to do something about the town 's snowy fiasco . Mary Margaret then tells the residents about Elsa 's presence in Storybrooke and is trying to reassure everyone that she is not dangerous , only to have Marian beginning to start feeling as if something was glossing over her and she passes out . Elsa 's presence has also resulted in her becoming a prime suspect , and with her heart slowly freezing , a cure must be found before Marian 's heart completely freezes and kills her . The Storybrooke residents blame Elsa , who is being framed by the Snow Queen for the icy cold mayhem . With the entire town ready to go after their newest addition , Emma ( who starts to question her abilities as `` The Savior '' ) and Hook decide to hide Elsa at the sheriff 's office while she and David search for the real suspect .

          Any point that lies either on the production possibilities curve or to the left of it is said to be an attainable point : it can be produced with currently available resources . Points that lie to the right of the production possibilities curve are said to be unattainable because they can not be produced using currently available resources . Points that lie strictly to the left of the curve are said to be inefficient , because existing resources would allow for production of more of at least one good without sacrificing the production of any other good . An efficient point is one that lies on the production possibilities curve . At any such point , more of one good can be produced only by producing less of the other .

          The election of President and Vice President of the United States is an indirect election in which citizens of the United States who are registered to vote in one of the 50 U.S. states or in Washington , D.C. cast ballots not directly for those offices , but instead for members of the U.S. Electoral College , known as electors . These electors then in turn cast direct votes , known as electoral votes , for President , and for Vice President . The candidate who receives an absolute majority of electoral votes ( at least 270 out of a total of 538 , since the Twenty - Third Amendment granting voting rights to citizens of Washington , D.C. ) is then elected to that office . If no candidate receives an absolute majority of the votes for President , the House of Representatives chooses the winner ; if no one receives an absolute majority of the votes for Vice President , then the Senate chooses the winner .

          In 1987 the United Nation 's World Commission on Environment and Development ( the Brundtland Commission ) , in its report Our Common Future suggested that development was acceptable , but it must be sustainable development that would meet the needs of the poor while not increasing environmental problems . Humanity 's demand on the planet has more than doubled over the past 45 years as a result of population growth and increasing individual consumption . In 1961 almost all countries in the world had more than enough capacity to meet their own demand ; by 2005 the situation had changed radically with many countries able to meet their needs only by importing resources from other nations . A move toward sustainable living by increasing public awareness and adoption of recycling , and renewable energies emerged . The development of renewable sources of energy in the 1970s and ' 80s , primarily in wind turbines and photovoltaics and increased use of hydroelectricity , presented some of the first sustainable alternatives to fossil fuel and nuclear energy generation , the first large - scale solar and wind power plants appearing during the 1980s and ' 90s . Also at this time many local and state governments in developed countries began to implement small - scale sustainability policies .

          Roosevelt 's advisers believed that excessive competition and technical progress had led to overproduction and lowered wages and prices , which they believed lowered demand and employment ( deflation ) . He argued that government economic planning was necessary to remedy this . New Deal economists argued that cut - throat competition had hurt many businesses and that with prices having fallen 20 % and more , `` deflation '' exacerbated the burden of debt and would delay recovery . They rejected a strong move in Congress to limit the workweek to 30 hours . Instead their remedy , designed in cooperation with big business , was the NIRA . It included stimulus funds for the WPA to spend and sought to raise prices , give more bargaining power for unions ( so the workers could purchase more ) and reduce harmful competition .

          The safety and litter problems were both eventually solved later in the 1970s with Daniel F. Cudzik 's invention of the non-removing `` Stay - Tab '' . The pull - ring was replaced with a stiff aluminium lever , and the removable tab was replaced with a pre-scored round tab that functioned similarly to the push - tab , but the raised blister was no longer needed , as the riveted lever would now do the job of pushing the tab open and into the interior of the can .

          The sacroiliac joint or SI joint ( SIJ ) is the joint between the sacrum and the ilium bones of the pelvis , which are connected by strong ligaments . In humans , the sacrum supports the spine and is supported in turn by an ilium on each side . The joint is a strong , weight transferral synovial plane joint with irregular elevations and depressions that produce interlocking of the two bones . The human body has two sacroiliac joints , one on the left and one on the right , that often match each other but are highly variable from person to person .

          The highly acidic environment in the stomach lumen causes proteins from food to lose their characteristic folded structure ( or denature ) . This exposes the protein 's peptide bonds . The gastric chief cells of the stomach secrete enzymes for protein breakdown ( inactive pepsinogen , and in infancy rennin ) . Hydrochloric acid activates pepsinogen into the enzyme pepsin , which then helps digestion by breaking the bonds linking amino acids , a process known as proteolysis . In addition , many microorganisms have their growth inhibited by such an acidic environment , which is helpful to prevent infection .

          The definitions of tomato purée vary from country to country . In the U.S. , tomato purée is a processed food product , usually consisting of only tomatoes , but can also be found in the seasoned form . It differs from tomato sauce or tomato paste in consistency and content ; tomato purée generally lacks the additives common to a complete tomato sauce and does not have the thickness of paste .

          Gastric acid , gastric juice or stomach acid , is a digestive fluid formed in the stomach and is composed of hydrochloric acid ( HCl ) , potassium chloride ( KCl ) and sodium chloride ( NaCl ) . The acid plays a key role in digestion of proteins , by activating digestive enzymes , and making ingested proteins unravel so that digestive enzymes break down the long chains of amino acids . Gastric acid is produced by cells in the lining of the stomach , which are coupled in feedback systems to increase acid production when needed . Other cells in the stomach produce bicarbonate , a base , to buffer the fluid , ensuring that it does not become too acidic . These cells also produce mucus , which forms a viscous physical barrier to prevent gastric acid from damaging the stomach . The pancreas further produces large amounts of bicarbonate and secretes bicarbonate through the pancreatic duct to the duodenum to completely neutralize any gastric acid that passes further down into the digestive tract .

Many of these tramroads or wagon ways were built in the 17th and 18th centuries . They used simply straight and parallel rails of timber on which carts with simple flanged iron wheels were drawn by horses , enabling several wagons to be moved simultaneously .

          Precipitation is the creation of a solid from a solution . When the reaction occurs in a liquid solution , the solid formed is called the ' precipitate ' . The chemical that causes the solid to form is called the ' precipitant ' . Without sufficient force of gravity ( settling ) to bring the solid particles together , the precipitate remains in suspension . After sedimentation , especially when using a centrifuge to press it into a compact mass , the precipitate may be referred to as a ' pellet ' . Precipitation can be used as a medium . The precipitate - free liquid remaining above the solid is called the ' supernate ' or ' supernatant ' . Powders derived from precipitation have also historically been known as ' flowers ' . When the solid appears in the form of cellulose fibers which have been through chemical processing , the process is often referred to as regeneration .

          The Supreme Court of the United States ( sometimes colloquially referred to by the acronym SCOTUS ) is the highest federal court of the United States . Established pursuant to Article Three of the United States Constitution in 1789 , it has ultimate ( and largely discretionary ) appellate jurisdiction over all federal courts and state court cases involving issues of federal law plus original jurisdiction over a small range of cases . In the legal system of the United States , the Supreme Court is generally the final interpreter of federal law including the United States Constitution , but it may act only within the context of a case in which it has jurisdiction . The Court may decide cases having political overtones but does not have power to decide nonjusticiable political questions , and its enforcement arm is in the executive rather than judicial branch of government .

          Paul 's letter is addressed `` to the churches of Galatia '' ( Galatians 1 : 2 ) , but the location of these churches is a matter of debate . A minority of scholars have argued that the `` Galatia '' is an ethnic reference to a Celtic people living in northern Asia Minor , but most agree that it is a geographical reference to the Roman province in central Asia Minor , which had been settled by immigrant Celts in the 270s BC and retained Gaulish features of culture and language in Paul 's day . Acts of the Apostles records Paul traveling to the `` region of Galatia and Phrygia '' , which lies immediately west of Galatia .

          World War II ( often abbreviated to WWII or WW2 ) , also known as the Second World War , was a global war that lasted from 1939 to 1945 , although related conflicts began earlier . It involved the vast majority of the world 's countries -- including all of the great powers -- eventually forming two opposing military alliances : the Allies and the Axis . It was the most widespread war in history , and directly involved more than 100 million people from over 30 countries . In a state of total war , the major participants threw their entire economic , industrial , and scientific capabilities behind the war effort , erasing the distinction between civilian and military resources .

          The railway system of Great Britain , the principal territory of the United Kingdom , is the oldest in the world . It was started with the building of local isolated wooden wagonways starting in 1560s . The system was later built as a patchwork of local rail links operated by small private railway companies in late 18th century . These isolated links developed during the railway boom of the 1840s into a national network , although still run by dozens of competing companies . Over the course of the 19th and early 20th centuries , these amalgamated or were bought by competitors until only a handful of larger companies remained ( see railway mania ) . The entire network was brought under government control during the First World War and a number of advantages of amalgamation and planning were revealed . However , the government resisted calls for the nationalisation of the network . In 1923 , almost all the remaining companies were grouped into the `` big four '' , the Great Western Railway , the London and North Eastern Railway , the London , Midland and Scottish Railway and the Southern Railway . The `` Big Four '' were joint - stock public companies and they continued to run the railway system until 31 December 1947 .

          Sophocles ( / ˈsɒfəkliːz / ; Greek : Σοφοκλῆς , Sophoklēs , Ancient Greek : ( so. pho. klɛ̂ːs ) ; c. 497 / 6 -- winter 406 / 5 BC ) is one of three ancient Greek tragedians whose plays have survived . His first plays were written later than those of Aeschylus , and earlier than or contemporary with those of Euripides . Sophocles wrote over 120 plays during the course of his life , but only seven have survived in a complete form : Ajax , Antigone , The Women of Trachis , Oedipus Rex , Electra , Philoctetes and Oedipus at Colonus . For almost 50 years , Sophocles was the most celebrated playwright in the dramatic competitions of the city - state of Athens that took place during the religious festivals of the Lenaea and the Dionysia . He competed in 30 competitions , won 24 , and was never judged lower than second place . Aeschylus won 13 competitions , and was sometimes defeated by Sophocles , while Euripides won 4 competitions .

          But with the approach of Aslan , her magical winter thaws , and Edmund is rescued after his treason . He had been greeted with a hostile reception from the White Witch after arriving at her castle alone , and even more so after informing her that Aslan had come to Narnia . The harshness of the Witch 's winter had made Edmund realise that he had been wrong in thinking that her side was the right side to be on , and he realised the full extent of her evil when he witnessed her turning a party of creatures into stone after their revelation that Father Christmas had been in Narnia - much to the Witch 's horror after she had banished him .

          Luke was written to be read aloud to a group of Jesus - followers gathered in a house to share the Lord 's supper . The author assumes an educated Greek - speaking audience , but directs his attention to specifically Christian concerns rather than to the Greco - Roman world at large . He begins his gospel with a preface addressed to Theophilus , informing him of his intention to provide an `` ordered account '' of events which will lead his reader to `` certainty '' . He did not write in order to provide Theophilus with historical justification -- `` did it happen ? '' -- but to encourage faith -- `` what happened , and what does it all mean ? ''

          Luke -- Acts is an attempt to answer a theological problem , namely how the Messiah of the Jews came to have an overwhelmingly non-Jewish church ; the answer it provides , and its central theme , is that the message of Christ was sent to the Gentiles because the Jews rejected it . Luke -- Acts can be also seen as a defense of ( or `` apology '' for ) the Jesus movement addressed to the Jews : the bulk of the speeches and sermons in Acts are addressed to Jewish audiences , with the Romans serving as external arbiters on disputes concerning Jewish customs and law . On the one hand Luke portrays the Christians as a sect of the Jews , and therefore entitled to legal protection as a recognised religion ; on the other , Luke seems unclear as to the future God intends for Jews and Christians , celebrating the Jewishness of Jesus and his immediate followers while also stressing how the Jews had rejected God 's promised Messiah .

        • Professor Eobard Thawne is introduced on The Flash as a scientist from the future who duplicated the reaction that gave Barry Allen / The Flash his powers and became the hero 's archenemy , the Reverse - Flash . Eobard traveled back in time to the year 2000 to kill his nemesis as a child . When the 2024 Flash intervened , the Reverse - Flash murdered Barry 's mother and framed his father instead , thus erasing this Flash from existence while unintentionally severing his own connection to the Speed Force , leaving him stranded in the 21st Century . Knowing that Dr. Harrison Wells would be responsible for creating metahumans in 2020 , Eobard killed the scientist and assumed his identity . He then founded S.T.A.R. Labs and created a particle accelerator to turn Barry into the Flash and regain his own link to the Speed Force . Faking paralysis , `` Dr. Wells '' pushes Barry to run faster in hopes of using the latter 's pure Speed Force connection to travel back to his time . After Eobard 's secret is discovered , he is defeated by the Flash , the Arrow and Firestorm . Eobard then offers Barry a chance to travel back in time to save his mother in exchange for a time sphere to return to the future , but Barry ultimately chooses not to do so and returns to destroy Eobard 's machine . As the Reverse - Flash prepares to kill the Flash , his ancestor Detective Eddie Thawne kills himself and seemingly erases Eobard from existence . A year later , Barry temporarily creates a new reality and restores a time remnant of Eobard to the timeline in the process .

          While not required to deliver a speech , every president since Woodrow Wilson , with the notable exception of Herbert Hoover , has made at least one State of the Union report as a speech delivered before a joint session of Congress . Before that time , most presidents delivered the State of the Union as a written report .

          +

          The address fulfills rules in Article II , Section 3 of the U.S. Constitution , requiring the President to periodically `` give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union , and recommend to their Consideration such measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient . '' During most of the country 's first century , the President primarily only submitted a written report to Congress . After 1913 , Woodrow Wilson , the 28th U.S. President , began the regular practice of delivering the address to Congress in person as a way to rally support for his agenda . With the advent of radio and television , the address is now broadcast live across the country on many networks .

          According to the EU 's Copenhagen criteria which define what states are eligible to join the EU , a candidate state must be a free market democracy . Given that the Holy See is a theocracy it does not meet the criteria . However , as it is so small , and surrounded by an EU state ( Italy ) , it is intrinsically linked to the EU . Vatican City has an open border with the EU and intends to join the Schengen Information System . It also uses the euro as its sole currency and has an agreement with the EU allowing them to mint their own coins . The EU gave Italy authority to negotiate a deal with the Holy See in 2000 which allowed the Holy See to mint a maximum of € 670,000 . After a review of the arrangements , a new agreement came into force in 2010 which allowed the Holy See to mint € 1 million a year ( plus up to an additional € 300,000 on special occasions ) .

          Grey matter ( or gray matter ) is a major component of the central nervous system , consisting of neuronal cell bodies , neuropil ( dendrites and myelinated as well as unmyelinated axons ) , glial cells ( astrocytes and oligodendrocytes ) , synapses , and capillaries . Grey matter is distinguished from white matter , in that it contains numerous cell bodies and relatively few myelinated axons , while white matter contains relatively few cell bodies and is composed chiefly of long - range myelinated axon tracts . The colour difference arises mainly from the whiteness of myelin . In living tissue , grey matter actually has a very light grey colour with yellowish or pinkish hues , which come from capillary blood vessels and neuronal cell bodies .

          The earliest motion picture stocks were orthochromatic , and recorded blue and green light , but not red . Recording all three spectral regions required making film stock panchromatic to some degree . Since orthochromatic film stock hindered color photography in its beginnings , the first films with color in them used aniline dyes to create artificial color . Hand - colored films appeared in 1895 with Thomas Edison 's hand - painted Annabelle 's Dance for his Kinetoscope viewers .

          In 1935 , Kodachrome was introduced , followed by Agfacolor in 1936 . They were intended primarily for amateur home movies and `` slides '' . These were the first films of the `` integral tripack '' type , coated with three layers of differently color - sensitive emulsion , which is usually what is meant by the words `` color film '' as commonly used . The few color films still being made in the 2010s are of this type . The first color negative films and corresponding print films were modified versions of these films . They were introduced around 1940 but only came into wide use for commercial motion picture production in the early 1950s . In the US , Eastman Kodak 's Eastmancolor was the usual choice , but it was often re-branded with another trade name , such as `` WarnerColor '' , by the studio or the film processor .

          In July , the Permanente Foundation formed to operate Northern California hospitals that would be linked to the outpatient health plans , followed shortly thereafter by the creation of Northern Permanente Foundation for Oregon and Washington and Southern Permanente Foundation for California . The name Permanente came from Permanente Creek , which flowed past Henry Kaiser 's first cement plant on Black Mountain in Cupertino , California . Kaiser 's first wife , Bess Fosburgh , liked the name . An abandoned Oakland facility was modernized as the 170 - bed Permanente Hospital opened on August 1 , 1942 . Three weeks later , the 71 - bed Richmond Field Hospital opened . Six first aid stations were set up in the shipyards to treat industrial accidents and minor illness . Each first aid station had an ambulance ready to rush patients to the surgical field hospital if required . Stabilized patients could be moved to the larger hospital for recuperative care . The Northern Permanente Hospital opened two weeks later to serve workers at the Kaiser shipyard in Vancouver , Washington . Shipyard workers paid seven cents per day for comprehensive health care coverage ; and within a year the shipyard health plan employed sixty physicians with salaries between $450 and $1,000 per month . These physicians established California Physicians Service to offer similar health coverage to the families of shipyard workers . In 1944 , Kaiser decided to continue the program after the war and to open it up to the general public .

          `` Cold turkey '' refers to the abrupt cessation of a substance dependence and the resulting unpleasant experience , as opposed to gradually easing the process through reduction over time or by using replacement medication . The term comes from the piloerection or `` goose bumps '' that occurs with abrupt withdrawal from opioids , which resembles the skin of a plucked refrigerated turkey .

              `` The dose makes the poison '' ( Latin : sola dosis facit venenum ) is an adage intended to indicate a basic principle of toxicology . It is credited to Paracelsus who expressed the classic toxicology maxim `` All things are poison and nothing is without poison ; only the dose makes a thing not a poison . '' This is often condensed to : `` The dose makes the poison '' or in Latin , `` Sola dosis facit venenum '' . It means that a substance can produce the harmful effect associated with its toxic properties only if it reaches a susceptible biological system within the body in a high enough concentration ( i.e. , dose ) .

              The death penalty was de facto abolished in Canada in 1963 , and Bill C - 84 was enacted in 1976 resulting in the de jure abolition of the death penalty , except for certain military offences committed by members of the Canadian Armed Forces ( cowardice , desertion , unlawful surrender , and spying for the enemy ) which are prosecuted under the National Defence Act . In 1998 , Canada eliminated the death penalty for these military offences as well .

              Capital punishment in Canada dates back to Canada 's earliest history , including its period as a French colony and , after 1763 , its time as a British colony .

              The epidermis contains no blood vessels , and cells in the deepest layers are nourished almost exclusively by diffused oxygen from the surrounding air and to a far lesser degree by blood capillaries extending to the outer layers of the dermis . The main type of cells which make up the epidermis are Merkel cells , keratinocytes , with melanocytes and Langerhans cells also present . The epidermis can be further subdivided into the following strata ( beginning with the outermost layer ) : corneum , lucidum ( only in palms of hands and bottoms of feet ) , granulosum , spinosum , basale . Cells are formed through mitosis at the basale layer . The daughter cells ( see cell division ) move up the strata changing shape and composition as they die due to isolation from their blood source . The cytoplasm is released and the protein keratin is inserted . They eventually reach the corneum and slough off ( desquamation ) . This process is called `` keratinization '' . This keratinized layer of skin is responsible for keeping water in the body and keeping other harmful chemicals and pathogens out , making skin a natural barrier to infection .

              Carnegie Hall is named after Andrew Carnegie , who funded its construction . It was intended as a venue for the Oratorio Society of New York and the New York Symphony Society , on whose boards Carnegie served . Construction began in 1890 , and was carried out by Isaac A. Hopper and Company . Although the building was in use from April 1891 , the official opening night was May 5 , with a concert conducted by maestro Walter Damrosch and great Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky . Originally known simply as `` Music Hall '' ( the words `` Music Hall founded by Andrew Carnegie '' still appear on the façade above the marquee ) , the hall was renamed Carnegie Hall in 1893 after board members of the Music Hall Company of New York ( the hall 's original governing body ) persuaded Carnegie to allow the use of his name . Several alterations were made to the building between 1893 and 1896 , including the addition of two towers of artists ' studios , and alterations to the smaller auditorium on the building 's lower level .

              The Currency Act of 1764 ( 4 Geo . III c. 34 ) extended the 1751 Act to all of the British colonies of North America . Unlike the earlier Act , this statute did not prohibit the colonies from issuing paper money , but it did forbid them from designating future currency emissions as legal tender for public and private debts . This tight money policy created financial difficulties in the colonies , where gold and silver were in short supply . Benjamin Franklin , a colonial agent in London , lobbied for repeal of the Act over the next several years , as did other agents . The act arose when Virginia farmers continued to import during the French and Indian War . Virginia issued 250,000 pounds in bills of credit to finance both public and private debts . This legislation differed from the 1751 act in that it prohibited the colonists from designating paper currency for use as payment for any debts , public or private . Parliament did not , however , prohibit the colonists from issuing paper money . The Act was put into place as a hedge against risks associated with economic fluctuations and uncertainty .

              SDS developed from the Student League for Industrial Democracy ( SLID ) , the youth branch of a socialist educational organization known as the League for Industrial Democracy ( LID ) . LID descended from the Intercollegiate Socialist Society , started in 1905 . Early in 1960 , the SLID changed its name into SDS at the behest of its then acting Director , Aryeh Neier . The phrase `` industrial democracy '' sounded too narrow and too labor oriented , making it more difficult to recruit students . Moreover , because the LID 's leadership did not correspond to the expectations and the mood on the campuses , the SLID felt the need to dissociate itself from its parent organization . SDS held its first meeting in 1960 on the University of Michigan campus at Ann Arbor , Michigan , where Alan Haber was elected president . Its political manifesto , known as the Port Huron Statement , was adopted at the organization 's first convention in 1962 , based on an earlier draft by staff member Tom Hayden .

              In January 2004 , the NASA twin Mars Exploration Rovers named Spirit ( MER - A ) and Opportunity ( MER - B ) landed on the surface of Mars . Both have met or exceeded all their targets . Among the most significant scientific returns has been conclusive evidence that liquid water existed at some time in the past at both landing sites . Martian dust devils and windstorms have occasionally cleaned both rovers ' solar panels , and thus increased their lifespan . Spirit Rover ( MER - A ) was active until 2010 , when it stopped sending data because it had fallen into a sand dune .

              Haji Sahib of Turangzai , the most famous Pukhtun religious leader of the time was requested by Nawab Sir Sahibzada Abdul Qayyum to lay the foundation stone of Islamia College . Haji Sahib agreed to the request , however , he had been declared a proclaimed offender by the British for his anti-British activities and his entry was banned into British controlled territory . He was residing in tribal territory , which was outside British control , so Nawab Sahib prevailed upon Sir George Roos - Keppel and the British to permit Haji Sahib to enter British controlled territory for one day so he could lay the foundation stone of Islamia College . The British agreed to this request with the understanding that Haji Sahib would return to tribal territory once he had laid the foundation stone . Haji Sahib was permitted to enter British controlled territory for the ceremony and spent the night in the ' Pokh ' Mosque of Tehkal . At the foundation stone laying ceremony , Sir Roos Keppel and other British officials were present , so Haji Sahib hid his face in his sheet ( Chadar ) from them and was led by Sheikh Muhammad Ibrahim to the place where he was to lay the foundation stone .

              Acid rain is a rain or any other form of precipitation that is unusually acidic , meaning that it has elevated levels of hydrogen ions ( low pH ) . It can have harmful effects on plants , aquatic animals and infrastructure . Acid rain is caused by emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide , which react with the water molecules in the atmosphere to produce acids . Some governments have made efforts since the 1970s to reduce the release of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide into the atmosphere with positive results . Nitrogen oxides can also be produced naturally by lightning strikes , and sulfur dioxide is produced by volcanic eruptions . Acid rain has been shown to have adverse impacts on forests , freshwaters and soils , killing insect and aquatic life - forms , causing paint to peel , corrosion of steel structures such as bridges , and weathering of stone buildings and statues as well as having impacts on human health .

              Superman is most vulnerable to green Kryptonite , mineral debris from Krypton transformed into radioactive material by the forces that destroyed the planet . Exposure to green Kryptonite radiation nullifies Superman 's powers and immobilizes him with pain and nausea ; prolonged exposure will eventually kill him . The only substance on Earth that can protect him from Kryptonite is lead , which blocks the radiation . Lead is also the only known substance that Superman can not see through with his x-ray vision . Kryptonite was introduced in 1943 as a plot device to allow the radio - serial voice actor , Bud Collyer , to take some time off . Although green Kryptonite is the most commonly seen form , writers have introduced other forms over the years : such as red , gold , blue , white , and black , each with its own effect .

              In solid - state physics , the work function ( sometimes spelled workfunction ) is the minimum thermodynamic work ( i.e. energy ) needed to remove an electron from a solid to a point in the vacuum immediately outside the solid surface . Here `` immediately '' means that the final electron position is far from the surface on the atomic scale , but still too close to the solid to be influenced by ambient electric fields in the vacuum . The work function is not a characteristic of a bulk material , but rather a property of the surface of the material ( depending on crystal face and contamination ) .

              An error does not count as a hit but still counts as an at bat for the batter unless , in the scorer 's judgment , the batter would have reached first base safely but one or more of the additional base ( s ) reached was the result of the fielder 's mistake . In that case , the play will be scored both as a hit ( for the number of bases the fielders should have limited the batter to ) and an error . However , if a batter is judged to have reached base solely because of a fielder 's mistake , it is scored as a `` hit on error , '' and treated the same as if the batter had been put out , hence lowering his batting average .

              In 1943 , at the peak of World War II , zinc - coated steel cents were made for a short time because of war demands for copper . A few copper cents from 1943 were produced from the 1942 planchets remaining in the bins . Similarly , some 1944 steel cents have been confirmed . From 1944 through 1946 , salvaged ammunition shells made their way into the minting process , and it was not uncommon to see coins featuring streaks of brass or having a considerably darker finish than other issues .

              The first Christmas cards were commissioned by Sir Henry Cole and illustrated by John Callcott Horsley in London on 1st May 1843 . The central picture showed three generations of a family raising a toast to the card 's recipient : on either side were scenes of charity , with food and clothing being given to the poor . Allegedly the image of the family drinking wine together proved controversial , but the idea was shrewd : Cole had helped introduce the Penny Post three years earlier . Two batches totaling 2,050 cards were printed and sold that year for a shilling each .

              It has been argued that `` during the twentieth century two ' revolutions ' transformed rural Mexico : the Mexican Revolution ( 1910 -- 1920 ) and the Green Revolution ( 1950 -- 1970 ) '' . With the support of the Mexican government , the U.S. government , the United Nations , the Food and Agriculture Organization ( FAO ) , and the Rockefeller Foundation , Mexico made a concerted effort to transform agricultural productivity , particularly with irrigated rather than dry - land cultivation in its northwest , to solve its problem of lack of food self - sufficiency . In the center and south of Mexico , where large - scale production faced challenges , agricultural production languished . Increased production meant food self - sufficiency in Mexico to feed its growing and urbanizing population , with the number of calories consumed per Mexican increasing . Technology was seen as a valuable way to feed the poor , and would relieve some pressure of the land redistribution process .

              In 1917 , with Russia experiencing political upheaval following widespread disillusionment there over the war , and with Britain and France low on credit , Germany appeared to have the upper hand in Europe , while the Ottoman Empire clung to its possessions in the Middle East . In the same year , Germany decided to resume unrestricted submarine warfare against any vessel approaching British waters ; this attempt to starve Britain into surrender was balanced against the knowledge that it would almost certainly bring the United States into the war . Germany also made a secret offer to help Mexico regain territories lost in the Mexican -- American War in an encoded telegram known as the Zimmermann Telegram , which was intercepted by British Intelligence . Publication of that communique outraged Americans just as German U-boats started sinking American merchant ships in the North Atlantic . Wilson then asked Congress for `` a war to end all wars '' that would `` make the world safe for democracy '' , and Congress voted to declare war on Germany on April 6 , 1917 . On December 7 , 1917 , the U.S. declared war on Austria - Hungary . U.S. troops began arriving on the Western Front in large numbers in 1918 .

One reason for the high membership might be the fact that until 1996 all newborns with at least one parent being a member of the Church of Sweden were also registered as members of the church . Yet the membership is declining rapidly , about 1 % each year , falling from 95 % in 1970 and 85 % in 2000 .

The movement responded by organized lobbying of individual businesses and institutional investors to end their involvement with or investments in the apartheid state as a matter of corporate social responsibility . This campaign was coordinated by several faith - based institutional investors eventually leading to the creation of the Interfaith Center on Corporate Responsibility .

              Treaty power is a co-ordinated effort between the Executive branch and the Senate . The President may form and negotiate , but the treaty must be advised and consented to by a two - thirds vote in the Senate . Only after the Senate approves the treaty can the President ratify it . Once it is ratified , it becomes binding on all the states under the Supremacy Clause . While the House of Representatives does not vote on it at all , the requirement for the Senate 's advice and consent to ratification makes it considerably more difficult to rally enough political support for international treaties . Also , if implementation of the treaty requires the expenditure of funds , the House of Representatives may be able to block or at least impede such implementation by refusing to vote for the appropriation of the necessary funds .

              ΔF508 ( Delta - F508 , full name CFTRΔF508 or F508del - CFTR ; rs113993960 ) is a specific mutation within the gene for a protein called the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator ( CFTR ) . The mutation is a deletion of three nucleotides spanning positions 507 and 508 of the CFTR gene on chromosome 7 , which ultimately results in the loss of a single codon for the amino acid phenylalanine ( F ) . A person with the CFTRΔF508 mutation will produce an abnormal CFTR protein that lacks this phenylalanine residue and which can not fold properly . This protein does not escape the endoplasmic reticulum for further processing . Having two copies of this mutation ( one inherited from each parent ) is by far the most common cause of cystic fibrosis ( CF ) , responsible for nearly two - thirds of cases worldwide .

              The location of the Super Bowl is chosen by the NFL well in advance , usually three to five years before the game . Cities place bids to host a Super Bowl and are evaluated in terms of stadium renovation and their ability to host . In 2014 , a document listing the specific requirements of Super Bowl hosts was leaked , giving a clear list of what was required for a Super Bowl host . Much of the cost of the Super Bowl is to be assumed by the host community , although some costs are enumerated within the requirements to be assumed by the NFL . Some of the host requirements include :

              Defence Against the Dark Arts , commonly shortened to D.A.D.A. , is the class that teaches students defensive techniques to defend against the Dark Arts , and to be protected from Dark creatures . In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows , with Death - Eaters in charge of the school , the subject is renamed the Dark Arts , and involves pupils practicing the Cruciatus Curse on those who have earned detentions . The subject has an extraordinarily high turnover of staff members -- throughout the series no Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher has retained the post for more than one school year . Harry is exceptionally skilled in this subject . During the period the story takes place , the class is taught by Quirinus Quirrell ( book one ) , Gilderoy Lockhart ( book two ) , Remus Lupin ( book three ) , Bartemius Crouch Jr impersonating Alastor `` Mad - eye '' Moody ( book four ) , Dolores Umbridge ( book five ) , Severus Snape ( book six ) , and Amycus Carrow ( book seven ) . Hagrid suggests in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets that `` They 're startin ' ter think the job 's jinxed . No one 's lasted long for a while now . '' In Half - Blood Prince , Dumbledore suggests that Voldemort cursed the position because his application for it was rejected . The existence of the jinx was eventually confirmed by Rowling . The position had also been coveted by Snape , but he was denied the position as well . Snape was finally appointed D.A.D.A. professor in Half - Blood Prince . Rowling announced in an interview that once Voldemort had died , the jinx he placed on the office was lifted and a permanent professor had been teaching the subject between the end of Deathly Hallows and the epilogue , set nineteen years afterwards . Furthermore , she imagines that Harry Potter occasionally comes to the class to give lectures on the subject .

              During the Great Depression , popcorn was fairly inexpensive at 5 -- 10 cents a bag and became popular . Thus , while other businesses failed , the popcorn business thrived and became a source of income for many struggling farmers , including the Redenbacher family , namesake of the famous popcorn brand . During World War II , sugar rations diminished candy production , and Americans compensated by eating three times as much popcorn as they had before . The snack was popular at theaters , much to the initial displeasure of many of the theater owners , who thought it distracted from the films . Their minds eventually changed , however , and in 1938 a Midwestern theater owner named Glen W. Dickson installed popcorn machines in the lobbies of his theaters . The venture was a financial success , and the trend soon spread .

              About two thirds of the total body water of humans is held in the cells , mostly in the cytosol , and the remainder is found in the extracellular compartment . The extracellular fluids may be divided into three types : interstitial fluid in the `` interstitial compartment '' ( surrounding tissue cells and bathing them in a solution of nutrients and other chemicals ) , blood plasma and lymph in the `` intravascular compartment '' ( inside the blood vessels and lymphatic vessels ) , and small amounts of transcellular fluid such as ocular and cerebrospinal fluids in the `` transcellular compartment '' . The interstitial and intravascular compartments readily exchange water and solutes but the third extracellular compartment , the transcellular , is thought of as separate from the other two and not in dynamic equilibrium with them .

              Citizens of the war - weary nation wanted stability , peace , and an end to conditions that at times bordered on chaos . Nevertheless , those on the right who wished to restore the monarchy by putting Louis XVIII on the throne , and those on the left who would have renewed the Reign of Terror , tried but failed to overthrow the Directory . The earlier atrocities had made confidence or goodwill between parties impossible . The Directory régime met opposition from Jacobins on the left and royalists on the right ( the latter were secretly subsidised by the British government ) . The army suppressed riots and counter-revolutionary activities . In this way the army and in particular Napoleon gained total power .

              In some regions , most notably in Awadh , the rebellion took on the attributes of a patriotic revolt against European presence and power . However , the rebel leaders proclaimed no articles of faith that presaged a new political system . Even so , the rebellion proved to be an important watershed in Indian - and British Empire history . It led to the dissolution of the East India Company , and forced the British to reorganize the army , the financial system , and the administration in India , through the passage of the Government of India Act 1858 . India was thereafter administered directly by the British government in the new British Raj . On 1 November 1858 , Queen Victoria issued a proclamation to Indians , which while lacking the authority of a constitutional provision , promised rights similar to those of other British subjects . In the following decades , when admission to these rights was not always forthcoming , Indians were to pointedly refer to the Queen 's proclamation in growing avowals of a new nationalism .

              The song was released in 1977 , following several other hits from The Stranger including `` Just the Way You Are '' , `` Movin ' Out ( Anthony 's Song ) '' and `` Only the Good Die Young '' . Musically , Joel has said that he was influenced by Gordon Lightfoot and his mellow acoustic guitar ballads . It is a love song that Joel wrote for his then wife , Elizabeth Weber . Elizabeth had taken over management of Joel 's career , and was able to put his financial affairs in order after Joel had signed some bad deals and contracts . She was a tough and savvy negotiator who could `` wound with her eyes '' or `` steal like a thief '' , but would `` never give in '' . Because of her tough - as - nails negotiating style , many business adversaries thought she was `` unfeminine , '' but to Joel , she was always a woman . The two eventually divorced in 1982 .

              Seafloor spreading is a process that occurs at mid-ocean ridges , where new oceanic crust is formed through volcanic activity and then gradually moves away from the ridge . Seafloor spreading helps explain continental drift in the theory of plate tectonics . When oceanic plates diverge , tensional stress causes fractures to occur in the lithosphere. The motivating force for seafloor spreading ridges is tectonic plate pull rather than magma pressure , although there is typically significant magma activity at spreading ridges . At a spreading center basaltic magma rises up the fractures and cools on the ocean floor to form new seabed . Hydrothermal vents are common at spreading centers . Older rocks will be found farther away from the spreading zone while younger rocks will be found nearer to the spreading zone . Additionally spreading rates determine if the ridge is a fast , intermediate , or slow . As a general rule , fast ridges see spreading rate of more than 9 cm / year . Intermediate ridges have a spreading rate of 4 -- 9 cm / year while slow spreading ridges have a rate less than 4 cm / year .

              External threats closely shaped the course of the Revolution . The Revolutionary Wars beginning in 1792 ultimately featured French victories that facilitated the conquest of the Italian Peninsula , the Low Countries and most territories west of the Rhine -- achievements that had eluded previous French governments for centuries . Internally , popular agitation radicalised the Revolution significantly , culminating in the rise of Maximilien Robespierre and the Jacobins . The dictatorship imposed by the Committee of Public Safety during the Reign of Terror , from 1793 until 1794 , established price controls on food and other items , abolished slavery in French colonies abroad , dechristianised society through the creation of a new calendar and the expulsion of religious figures , and secured the borders of the new republic from its enemies . Large numbers of civilians were executed by revolutionary tribunals during the Terror , with estimates ranging from 16,000 to 40,000 . After the Thermidorian Reaction , an executive council known as the Directory assumed control of the French state in 1795 . The rule of the Directory was characterised by suspended elections , debt repudiations , financial instability , persecutions against the Catholic clergy , and significant military conquests abroad . Dogged by charges of corruption , the Directory collapsed in a coup led by Napoleon Bonaparte in 1799 .

              A customer asks a bank for a cashier 's check , and the bank debits the amount from the customer 's account immediately , and assumes the responsibility for covering the cashier 's check . That is in contrast with a personal check , in which the bank does not debit the amount from the customer 's account until the check is deposited or cashed by the recipient .

              `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' is a song by the English rock band the Beatles from their 1968 double album The Beatles ( also known as `` the White Album '' ) . It was written by George Harrison , the band 's lead guitarist . The song serves as a comment on the disharmony within the Beatles following their return from studying Transcendental Meditation in India in early 1968 . This lack of camaraderie was reflected in the band 's initial apathy towards the composition , which Harrison countered by inviting his friend and occasional collaborator , Eric Clapton , to contribute to the recording . Clapton overdubbed a lead guitar part , although he was not formally credited for his contribution .

              The optic nerve is composed of retinal ganglion cell axons and glial cells . Each human optic nerve contains between 770,000 and 1.7 million nerve fibers , which are axons of the retinal ganglion cells of one retina . In the fovea , which has high acuity , these ganglion cells connect to as few as 5 photoreceptor cells ; in other areas of retina , they connect to many thousand photoreceptors .

              The history of manga is said to originate from scrolls dating back to the 12th century , and it is believed they represent the basis for the right - to - left reading style . The word first came into common usage in the late 18th century . Manga is a Japanese term that can be translated as `` comic '' ; Historians and writers on manga history have described two broad and complementary processes shaping modern manga . Their views differ in the relative importance they attribute to the role of cultural and historical events following World War II versus the role of pre-war , Meiji , and pre-Meiji Japanese culture and art .

              The first quarter of the 19th century showed the continuation of the slow colonization of the southern and central California coast by Spanish missionaries , ranchers and troops . By 1820 Spanish influence was marked by the chain of missions reaching from Loreto , north to San Diego , to just north of today 's San Francisco Bay Area , and extended inland approximately 25 to 50 miles ( 40 to 80 km ) from the missions . Outside of this zone , perhaps 200,000 to 250,000 Native Americans were continuing to lead traditional lives . The Adams -- Onís Treaty , signed in 1819 , set the northern boundary of the Spanish claims at the 42nd parallel , effectively creating today 's northern boundary between California and Oregon .

              One common way to extinguish a fire is to spray it with water . The water has two roles : It vaporizes when it comes in contact with fire , and this vapor displaces the oxygen ( the volume of water vapor is 1,700 times greater than liquid water , at 1,000 ° F ( 538 ° C ) it expands over 4,000 times ) . This leaves the fire without enough of the combustive agent , and it dies out . The vaporization of water also absorbs heat ; it thereby cools the smoke , air , walls , and objects that could act as further fuel , and thus prevents one of the means by which fires grow , which is by `` jumping '' to nearby heat / fuel sources to start new fires , which then combine . Water extinguishment is thus a combination of `` asphyxia '' ( cutting off the oxygen supply ) and cooling . The flame itself is suppressed by asphyxia , but the cooling is the most important element in mastering a fire in a closed area .

              Manga is said to originate from scrolls dating back to the 12th and 13th centuries . During the Edo period ( 1603 - 1867 ) , another book of drawings , Toba Ehon , embedded the concept of manga . The word first came into common usage in the late 18th century with the publication of such works as Santō Kyōden 's picturebook Shiji no yukikai ( 1798 ) , and in the early 19th century with such works as Aikawa Minwa 's Manga hyakujo ( 1814 ) and the celebrated Hokusai Manga books ( 1814 -- 1834 ) containing assorted drawings from the sketchbooks of the famous ukiyo - e artist Hokusai who lived from 1760 -- 1849 . Rakuten Kitazawa ( 1876 -- 1955 ) first used the word `` manga '' in the modern sense .

              All fluoridation methods , including water fluoridation , create low levels of fluoride ions in saliva and plaque fluid , thus exerting a topical or surface effect . A person living in an area with fluoridated water may experience rises of fluoride concentration in saliva to about 0.04 mg / L several times during a day . Technically , this fluoride does not prevent cavities but rather controls the rate at which they develop . When fluoride ions are present in plaque fluid along with dissolved hydroxyapatite , and the pH is higher than 4.5 , a fluorapatite - like remineralized veneer is formed over the remaining surface of the enamel ; this veneer is much more acid - resistant than the original hydroxyapatite , and is formed more quickly than ordinary remineralized enamel would be . The cavity - prevention effect of fluoride is mostly due to these surface effects , which occur during and after tooth eruption . Although some systemic ( whole - body ) fluoride returns to the saliva via blood plasma , and to unerupted teeth via plasma or crypt fluid , there is little data to determine what percentages of fluoride 's anticavity effect comes from these systemic mechanisms . Also , although fluoride affects the physiology of dental bacteria , its effect on bacterial growth does not seem to be relevant to cavity prevention .

              The optic nerve leaves the orbit ( eye socket ) via the optic canal , running postero - medially towards the optic chiasm , where there is a partial decussation ( crossing ) of fibres from the temporal visual fields ( the nasal hemi - retina ) of both eyes . The proportion of decussating fibers varies between species , and is correlated with the degree of binocular vision enjoyed by a species . Most of the axons of the optic nerve terminate in the lateral geniculate nucleus from where information is relayed to the visual cortex , while other axons terminate in the pretectal nucleus and are involved in reflexive eye movements . Other axons terminate in the suprachiasmatic nucleus and are involved in regulating the sleep - wake cycle . Its diameter increases from about 1.6 mm within the eye to 3.5 mm in the orbit to 4.5 mm within the cranial space . The optic nerve component lengths are 1 mm in the globe , 24 mm in the orbit , 9 mm in the optic canal , and 16 mm in the cranial space before joining the optic chiasm . There , partial decussation occurs , and about 53 % of the fibers cross to form the optic tracts . Most of these fibres terminate in the lateral geniculate body .

              Though there are diverse models for the scientific method available , in general there is a continuous process that includes observations about the natural world . People are naturally inquisitive , so they often come up with questions about things they see or hear , and they often develop ideas or hypotheses about why things are the way they are . The best hypotheses lead to predictions that can be tested in various ways . The most conclusive testing of hypotheses comes from reasoning based on carefully controlled experimental data . Depending on how well additional tests match the predictions , the original hypothesis may require refinement , alteration , expansion or even rejection . If a particular hypothesis becomes very well supported , a general theory may be developed .

              On 23 September 1779 , the squadron encountered the Baltic Fleet of 41 sail under convoy of the HMS Serapis and HM hired armed vessel Countess of Scarborough near Flamborough Head . The Bonhomme Richard and Serapis entered a bitter engagement at about 6 : 00 p.m. The battle continued for the next four hours , costing the lives of nearly half of the American and British crews . British victory seemed inevitable , as the more heavily armed Serapis used its firepower to rake Bonhomme Richard with devastating effect . The commander of the Serapis finally called on Jones to surrender . He replied , `` Sir , I have not yet begun to fight ! '' Jones eventually managed to lash the ships together , nullifying his opponent 's greater maneuverability and allowing him to take advantage of the larger size and considerably more numerous crew of Bonhomme Richard . An attempt by the Americans to board Serapis was repulsed , as was an attempt by the British to board Bonhomme Richard . Finally , after another of Jones 's ships joined the fight , the British captain was forced to surrender at about 10 : 30 p.m. The Bonhomme Richard -- shattered , on fire , leaking badly -- defied all efforts to save her and sank about 36 hours later at 11 : 00 a.m. on Saturday , 25 September 1779 . Jones sailed the captured Serapis to the Dutch United Provinces for repairs .

              In meteorology , precipitation is any product of the condensation of atmospheric water vapor that falls under gravity . The main forms of precipitation include drizzle , rain , sleet , snow , graupel and hail . Precipitation occurs when a portion of the atmosphere becomes saturated with water vapor , so that the water condenses and `` precipitates '' . Thus , fog and mist are not precipitation but suspensions , because the water vapor does not condense sufficiently to precipitate . Two processes , possibly acting together , can lead to air becoming saturated : cooling the air or adding water vapor to the air . Precipitation forms as smaller droplets coalesce via collision with other rain drops or ice crystals within a cloud . Short , intense periods of rain in scattered locations are called `` showers . ''

              In optics , a real image is an image which is located in the plane of convergence for the light rays that originate from a given object . If a screen is placed in the plane of a real image the image will generally become visible on the screen . Examples of real images include the image seen on a cinema screen ( the source being the projector ) , the image produced on a detector in the rear of a camera , and the image produced on an eyeball retina ( the camera and eye focus light through an internal convex lens ) . In ray diagrams ( such as the images on the right ) , real rays of light are always represented by full , solid lines ; perceived or extrapolated rays of light are represented by dashed lines . A real image occurs where rays converge , whereas a virtual image occurs where rays only appear to converge .

              The deciphering of the structure of DNA by Watson and Crick in 1953 suggested that each strand of the double helix would serve as a template for synthesis of a new strand . However , there was no way of knowing how the newly synthesized strands might combine with the template strands to form two double helical DNA molecules . The semiconservative model seemed most reasonable since it would allow each daughter strand to remain associated with its template strand . The semiconservative model was supported by the Meselson - Stahl experiment and other even more revealing experiments that allowed for autoradiographic visualization of the distribution of old and new strands within replicated chromosomes .

              `` A rose by any other name would smell as sweet '' is a popular reference to William Shakespeare 's play Romeo and Juliet , in which Juliet seems to argue that it does not matter that Romeo is from her family 's rival house of Montague , that is , that he is named `` Montague '' . The reference is often used to imply that the names of things do not affect what they really are . This formulation is , however , a paraphrase of Shakespeare 's actual language . Juliet compares Romeo to a rose saying that if he was not named Romeo he would still be handsome and be Juliet 's love . This states that if he was not Romeo , then he would not be a Montague and she would be able to get married with no problem at all .

              The Parliament of India is bicameral . Concurrence of both houses are required to pass any bill . However , the authors of the Constitution of India visualised situations of deadlock between the upper house i.e. Rajya Sabha and the lower house i.e. Lok Sabha . Therefore , the Constitution of India provides for Joint sittings of both the Houses to break this deadlock . The joint sitting of the Parliament is called by the President and is presided over by the Speaker or , in his absence , by the Deputy Speaker of the Lok Sabha or in his absence , the Deputy - Chairman of the Rajya Sabha . If any of the above officers are not present then any other member of the Parliament can preside by consensus of both the House .

              By November 1971 , the war seemed inevitable and the Soviet Union had reportedly warned Pakistan against the war which they termed as `` suicidal course for Pakistan 's unity . '' Throughout November 1971 , there were thousands of people led by conservative Pakistani politicians who marched in Lahore and across Pakistan , calling for Pakistan to Crush India . India responded by starting a massive buildup of Indian army on the western borders and the Indian army waited until December , when the drier ground would make for easier operations and Himalayan passes would be closed by snow , preventing any Chinese intervention . On 23 November , President Yahya Khan declared a state of emergency in all of Pakistan and told his people to prepare for war .

The Government of Pakistan used the `` Bihari massacre ' '' to justify its deployment of the military in East Pakistan on 25 March when it initiated its military crackdown . President Yahya Khan then called on the military , which was overwhelming led by West Pakistanis , to suppress dissent in the East after accepting the resignation of Lieutenant - General Yaqub Ali Khan , the chief of staff of the East - Pakistani military .

              After trashing a Plasma Beam Tank belonging to the Forever Knights , Ben decides he needs to be in three places at once : 1 ) go to Julie 's tennis game , 2 ) He has to fight the Forever Knights with Kevin , and 3 ) see the Sumo Slammers 3D movie . Using Echo Echo , he divides himself into three copies and transforms back into human form , creating three of himself . However , each is one part of his personality : one is logical , one is sensitive , and one is immature and insensitive . The sensitive Ben goes with Kevin to the museum , the insensitive Ben stays to watch Julie 's match , and the logical Ben goes to see Sumo Slammers . Insensitive Ben proceeds to embarrass Julie while sensitive Ben can not properly fight . When the Forever Knights steal a Aztec Battle Armor , Ben calls in his other selves for assistance , only to quickly realize that none of them are good fighters alone . He recombines into one and uses Lodestar to separate the armor , destroying it . Ben tries to apologize to Julie , which she almost accepts , until he admits he already went to see the Sumo Slammers movie when she suggests they go see it . Furious with Ben , Julie storms off with Gwen and Kevin right behind her leaving him alone to repent for what he has done in order to gain back their trust .

              The name French and Indian War is used mainly in the United States . It refers to the two main enemies of the British colonists : the royal French forces and the various American Indian forces allied with them . The British colonists were supported at various times by the Iroquois , Catawba , and Cherokee , and the French colonists were supported by Wabanaki Confederacy members Abenaki and Mi'kmaq , and Algonquin , Lenape , Ojibwa , Ottawa , Shawnee , and Wyandot .

              +

              The French and Indian War ( 1754 -- 63 ) comprised the North American theater of the worldwide Seven Years ' War of 1756 -- 63 . It pitted the colonies of British America against those of New France . Both sides were supported by military units from their parent countries of Great Britain and France , as well as by American Indian allies . At the start of the war , the French North American colonies had a population of roughly 60,000 settlers , compared with 2 million in the British North American colonies . The outnumbered French particularly depended on the Indians . The European nations declared war on one another in 1756 following months of localized conflict , escalating the war from a regional affair into an intercontinental conflict .

              Swine influenza is an infection caused by any one of several types of swine influenza viruses . Swine influenza virus ( SIV ) or swine - origin influenza virus ( S - OIV ) is any strain of the influenza family of viruses that is endemic in pigs . As of 2009 , the known SIV strains include influenza C and the subtypes of influenza A known as H1N1 , H1N2 , H2N1 , H3N1 , H3N2 , and H2N3 .

              +

              The phylogenetic origin of the flu virus that caused the 2009 pandemics can be traced before 1918 . Around 1918 , the ancestral virus , of avian origin , crossed the species boundaries and infected humans as human H1N1 . The same phenomenon took place soon after in America , where the human virus was infecting pigs ; it led to the emergence of the H1N1 swine strain , which later became the classic swine flu .

              The photoelectric ( optical ) smoke detector was invented by Donald Steele and Robert Emmark of Electro Signal Lab and patented in 1972 .

              +

              A photoelectric , or optical smoke detector contains a source of infrared , visible , or ultraviolet light ( typically an incandescent light bulb or light - emitting diode ) , a lens , and a photoelectric receiver ( typically a photodiode ) . In spot - type detectors all of these components are arranged inside a chamber where air , which may contain smoke from a nearby fire , flows . In large open areas such as atria and auditoriums , optical beam or projected - beam smoke detectors are used instead of a chamber within the unit : a wall - mounted unit emits a beam of infrared or ultraviolet light which is either received and processed by a separate device , or reflected back to the receiver by a reflector . In some types , particularly optical beam types , the light emitted by the light source passes through the air being tested and reaches the photosensor . The received light intensity will be reduced due to scattering from particulates of smoke , air - borne dust , or other substances ; the circuitry detects the light intensity and generates the alarm if it is below a specified threshold , potentially due to smoke . In other types , typically chamber types , the light is not directed at the sensor , which is not illuminated in the absence of particles . If the air in the chamber contains particles ( smoke or dust ) , the light is scattered and some of it reaches the sensor , triggering the alarm .

              The period typically called Romantic varies greatly between different countries and different artistic media or areas of thought . Margaret Drabble described it in literature as taking place `` roughly between 1770 and 1848 '' , and few dates much earlier than 1770 will be found . In English literature , M.H. Abrams placed it between 1789 , or 1798 , this latter a very typical view , and about 1830 , perhaps a little later than some other critics . Others have proposed 1780 -- 1830 . In other fields and other countries the period denominated as Romantic can be considerably different ; musical Romanticism , for example , is generally regarded as only having ceased as a major artistic force as late as 1910 , but in an extreme extension the Four Last Songs of Richard Strauss are described stylistically as `` Late Romantic '' and were composed in 1946 -- 48 . However , in most fields the Romantic Period is said to be over by about 1850 , or earlier .

              Romanticism ( also the Romantic era or the Romantic period ) was an artistic , literary , musical and intellectual movement that originated in Europe toward the end of the 18th century , and in most areas was at its peak in the approximate period from 1800 to 1850 . Romanticism was characterized by its emphasis on emotion and individualism as well as glorification of all the past and nature , preferring the medieval rather than the classical . It was partly a reaction to the Industrial Revolution , the aristocratic social and political norms of the Age of Enlightenment , and the scientific rationalization of nature -- all components of modernity .

              The history of international relations based on sovereign states is often traced back to the Peace of Westphalia of 1648 , a stepping stone in the development of the modern state system . Prior to this the European medieval organization of political authority was based on a vaguely hierarchical religious order . Contrary to popular belief , Westphalia still embodied layered systems of sovereignty , especially within the Holy Roman Empire . More than the Peace of Westphalia , the Treaty of Utrecht of 1713 is thought to reflect an emerging norm that sovereigns had no internal equals within a defined territory and no external superiors as the ultimate authority within the territory 's sovereign borders .

              `` How now brown cow '' ( / ˈhaʊ ˈnaʊ ˈbraʊn ˈkaʊ / ) is a phrase used in elocution teaching to demonstrate rounded vowel sounds . Each `` ow '' sound in the phrase represents the diphthong / aʊ / . Although orthographies for each of the four words in this utterance is represented by the English spelling `` ow '' , the articulation required to create this same diphthong represented by the International Phonetic Association 's phonetic alphabet as / aʊ / is also represented by the spelling `` ou '' . Some examples of these homophonic / aʊ / 's are the English words `` house '' , `` blouse '' , `` noun '' , and `` cloud '' . The use of the phrase `` how now brown cow '' in teaching elocution can be dated back to at least 1926 . Although not in use today , the phrase `` how now '' is a greeting , short for `` how say you now '' , and can be found in archaic literature , such as the plays of William Shakespeare .

              The term comes from a Czech word , robota , meaning `` forced labor '' ; the word ' robot ' was first used to denote a fictional humanoid in a 1920 play R.U.R. by the Czech writer , Karel Čapek but it was Karel 's brother Josef Čapek who was the word 's true inventor . Electronics evolved into the driving force of development with the advent of the first electronic autonomous robots created by William Grey Walter in Bristol , England in 1948 , as well as Computer Numerical Control ( CNC ) machine tools in the late 1940s by John T. Parsons and Frank L. Stulen . The first commercial , digital and programmable robot was built by George Devol in 1954 and was named the Unimate . It was sold to General Motors in 1961 where it was used to lift pieces of hot metal from die casting machines at the Inland Fisher Guide Plant in the West Trenton section of Ewing Township , New Jersey .

              The Geographic South Pole is located on the continent of Antarctica ( although this has not been the case for all of Earth 's history because of continental drift ) . It sits atop a featureless , barren , windswept and icy plateau at an altitude of 2,835 metres ( 9,301 ft ) above sea level , and is located about 1,300 km ( 800 mi ) from the nearest open sea at Bay of Whales . The ice is estimated to be about 2,700 metres ( 9,000 ft ) thick at the Pole , so the land surface under the ice sheet is actually near sea level .

              In 1947 full - scale war broke out between the Viet Minh and France . Realizing that colonialism was coming to an end worldwide , France fashioned a semi-independent State of Vietnam , within the French Union , with Bảo Đại as Head of State . Meanwhile , as the Communists under Mao Zedong took over China , the Viet Minh began to receive military aid from China . Beside supplying materials , Chinese cadres also pressured the Vietnamese Communist Party , then under First Secretary Trường Chinh , to emulate their brand of revolution , unleashing a purge of `` bourgeois and feudal '' elements from the Viet Minh ranks , carrying out a ruthless and bloody land reform campaign ( Cải Cách Ruộng Đất ) , and denouncing `` bourgeois and feudal '' tendencies in arts and literature . Many true patriots and devoted Communist revolutionaries in the Viet Minh suffered mistreatment or were even executed during these movements . Many others became disenchanted and left the Viet Minh . The United States became strongly opposed to Hồ Chí Minh . In the 1950s the government of Bảo Đại gained recognition by the United States and the United Kingdom .

              The first modern usage of the specific term `` social justice '' is typically attributed to Catholic thinkers from the 1840s , including the Jesuit Luigi Taparelli in Civiltà Cattolica , based on the work of St. Thomas Aquinas . He argued that rival capitalist and socialist theories , based on subjective Cartesian thinking , undermined the unity of society present in Thomistic metaphysics as neither were sufficiently concerned with moral philosophy . Writing in 1861 , the influential British philosopher and economist , John Stuart Mill stated in Utilitarianism his view that `` Society should treat all equally well who have deserved equally well of it , that is , who have deserved equally well absolutely . This is the highest abstract standard of social and distributive justice ; towards which all institutions , and the efforts of all virtuous citizens , should be made in the utmost degree to converge .

              When the National Anthem was first recognized by law in 1932 , there was no prescription as to behavior during its playing . On June 22 , 1942 , the law was revised indicating that those in uniform should salute during its playing , while others should simply stand at attention , men removing their hats . ( The same code also required that women should place their hands over their hearts when the flag is displayed during the playing of the Anthem , but not if the flag was not present . ) On December 23 , 1942 the law was again revised instructing men and women to stand at attention and face in the direction of the music when it was played . That revision also directed men and women to place their hands over their hearts only if the flag was displayed . Those in uniform were required to salute . On July 7 , 1976 , the law was simplified . Men and women were instructed to stand with their hands over their hearts , men removing their hats , irrespective of whether or not the flag was displayed and those in uniform saluting . On August 12 , 1998 , the law was rewritten keeping the same instructions , but differentiating between `` those in uniform '' and `` members of the Armed Forces and veterans '' who were both instructed to salute during the playing whether or not the flag was displayed . Because of the changes in law over the years and confusion between instructions for the Pledge of Allegence versus the National Anthem , throughout most of the 20th century many people simply stood at attention or with their hands folded in front of them during the playing of the Anthem , and when reciting the Pledge they would hold their hand ( or hat ) over their heart . After 9 / 11 , the custom of placing the hand over the heart during the playing of the Anthem became nearly universal .

              While the concept of social justice can be traced through the theology of Augustine of Hippo and the philosophy of Thomas Paine , the term `` social justice '' became used explicitly from the 1840s . A Jesuit priest named Luigi Taparelli is typically credited with coining the term , and it spread during the revolutions of 1848 with the work of Antonio Rosmini - Serbati . In the late industrial revolution , progressive American legal scholars began to use the term more , particularly Louis Brandeis and Roscoe Pound . From the early 20th century it was also embedded in international law and institutions ; the preamble to establish the International Labour Organization recalled that `` universal and lasting peace can be established only if it is based upon social justice . '' In the later 20th century , social justice was made central to the philosophy of the social contract , primarily by John Rawls in A Theory of Justice ( 1971 ) . In 1993 , the Vienna Declaration and Programme of Action treats social justice as a purpose of human rights education .

              Gregor Mendel , who is known as the `` father of modern genetics '' , was inspired by both his professors at the Palacký University , Olomouc ( Friedrich Franz and Johann Karl Nestler ) , and his colleagues at the monastery ( such as Franz Diebl ) to study variation in plants . In 1854 , Napp authorized Mendel to carry out a study in the monastery 's 2 hectares ( 4.9 acres ) experimental garden , which was originally planted by Napp in 1830 . Unlike Nestler , who studied hereditary traits in sheep , Mendel used the common edible pea and started his experiments in 1856 .

              Mendel worked with seven characteristics of pea plants : plant height , pod shape and color , seed shape and color , and flower position and color . Taking seed color as an example , Mendel showed that when a true - breeding yellow pea and a true - breeding green pea were cross-bred their offspring always produced yellow seeds . However , in the next generation , the green peas reappeared at a ratio of 1 green to 3 yellow . To explain this phenomenon , Mendel coined the terms `` recessive '' and `` dominant '' in reference to certain traits . ( In the preceding example , the green trait , which seems to have vanished in the first filial generation , is recessive and the yellow is dominant . ) He published his work in 1866 , demonstrating the actions of invisible `` factors '' -- now called genes -- in predictably determining the traits of an organism .

              However , the idea that all cells come from pre-existing cells had in fact already been proposed by Robert Remak ; it has been suggested that Virchow plagiarized Remak and did not give him credit . Remak published observations in 1852 on cell division , claiming Schleiden and Schawnn were incorrect about generation schemes . He instead said that binary fission , which was first introduced by Dumortier , was how reproduction of new animal cells were made . Once this tenet was added , the classical cell theory was complete .

              Retired British ICS officer Allan Octavian Hume , founded the Indian National Congress ( A political party of India ( British India to Free India ) ) to form a platform for civic and political dialogue of educated Indians with the British Raj . After the Indian Rebellion of 1857 and the transfer of India from the East India Company to the British Empire ( the Raj ) , it was the goal of the Raj to support and justify its governance of India with the aid of English - educated Indians , who would be familiar and friendly to British culture and political thinking . Ironically , a few of the reasons the Congress grew and survived in the era of undisputed British hegemony , was through the patronage of British authorities , Anglo - Indians , and a rising Indian , English language educated , class .

              Khrushchev had become emboldened upon seeing US President John F. Kennedy 's youth and inexperience show as weakness against Khrushchev 's brutal , undiplomatic aggression . This feeling of miscalculation and failure is admitted by Kennedy in the U.S. ambassador 's residence with New York Times columnist James `` Scotty '' Reston . Kennedy made the regrettable error of admitting that the US would not actively oppose this action in the Soviet sector of Berlin . On Saturday , 12 August 1961 , the leaders of the GDR attended a garden party at a government guesthouse in Döllnsee , in a wooded area to the north of East Berlin . There Ulbricht signed the order to close the border and erect a wall .

              The Climate of Venezuela is characterized for being tropical and isothermal as a result of its geographical location near the Equator , but because of the topography and the dominant wind direction , several climatic types occur which can be the same as found in temperate latitudes , and even polar regions . Latitude exerts little influence on the Venezuelan climate , but the altitude changes it dramatically , particularly the temperature , reaching values very different according to the presence of different thermal floors .

              The printing press was invented in the Holy Roman Empire by the German Johannes Gutenberg around 1440 , based on existing screw presses . Gutenberg , a goldsmith by profession , developed a printing system , by adapting existing technologies to printing purposes , as well as making inventions of his own . His newly devised hand mould made possible the precise and rapid creation of metal movable type in large quantities . Movable type had been hitherto unknown in Europe . In East Asia , where it was invented , the usefulness of movable type was limited by the complexity of the writing system and , without the hand mould , the production of sorts ( individual letters of type ) was slow . In Europe , the two inventions , the hand mould and the printing press , together drastically reduced the cost of printing books and other documents , particularly in short print runs .

              Following World War II , Soviet leader Joseph Stalin headed a group of nations on his Western border , the Eastern Bloc , that then included Poland , Hungary and Czechoslovakia , which he wished to maintain alongside a weakened Soviet - controlled Germany . As early as 1945 , Stalin revealed to German communist leaders that he expected to slowly undermine the British position within the British occupation zone , that the United States would withdraw within a year or two , and that nothing would then stand in the way of a united communist Germany within the bloc .

              The transcript of a telephone call between Nikita Khrushchev and Ulbricht on 1 August in the same year , suggests that the initiative for the construction of the Wall came from Khrushchev . However , other sources suggest that Khrushchev had initially been wary about building a wall , fearing negative Western reaction . What is beyond dispute , though , is that Ulbricht had pushed for a border closure for quite some time , arguing that East Germany 's very existence was at stake .

              The water cycle , also known as the hydrological cycle or the hydrologic cycle , describes the continuous movement of water on , above and below the surface of the Earth . The mass of water on Earth remains fairly constant over time but the partitioning of the water into the major reservoirs of ice , fresh water , saline water and atmospheric water is variable depending on a wide range of climatic variables . The water moves from one reservoir to another , such as from river to ocean , or from the ocean to the atmosphere , by the physical processes of evaporation , condensation , precipitation , infiltration , surface runoff , and subsurface flow . In doing so , the water goes through different forms : liquid , solid ( ice ) and vapor .

              The idea of a stored - program computer was already present in the design of J. Presper Eckert and John William Mauchly 's ENIAC , but was initially omitted so that it could be finished sooner . On June 30 , 1945 , before ENIAC was made , mathematician John von Neumann distributed the paper entitled First Draft of a Report on the EDVAC . It was the outline of a stored - program computer that would eventually be completed in August 1949 . EDVAC was designed to perform a certain number of instructions ( or operations ) of various types . Significantly , the programs written for EDVAC were to be stored in high - speed computer memory rather than specified by the physical wiring of the computer . This overcame a severe limitation of ENIAC , which was the considerable time and effort required to reconfigure the computer to perform a new task . With von Neumann 's design , the program that EDVAC ran could be changed simply by changing the contents of the memory . EDVAC , however , was not the first stored - program computer ; the Manchester Small - Scale Experimental Machine , a small prototype stored - program computer , ran its first program on 21 June 1948 and the Manchester Mark 1 ran its first program during the night of 16 -- 17 June 1949 .

              Hydrogen peroxide is formed in human and animals as a short - lived product in biochemical processes and is toxic to cells . The toxicity is due to oxidation of proteins , membrane lipids and DNA by the peroxide ions . The class of biological enzymes called SOD ( superoxide dismutase ) is developed in nearly all living cells as an important antioxidant agent . They promote the disproportionation of superoxide into oxygen and hydrogen peroxide , which is then rapidly decomposed by the enzyme catalase to oxygen and water .

              In 1980 , The Shining became the basis for a film adaptation directed by Stanley Kubrick . Kubrick 's vision for the movie differed from King 's significantly in many ways , including the portrayal of the Overlook Hotel . The exteriors of Kubrick 's Overlook were supplied by the Timberline Lodge on the slopes of Mt . Hood in Oregon . Inspiration for the interior sets ( erected at Elstree Studios in England ) came from the 1927 Ahwahnee Hotel in Yosemite National Park . The management of the Timberline Lodge , fearful that guests would refuse to stay in their Room 217 if it were featured in a horror movie , insisted that Kubrick change the haunted room in the film to Room 237 .

British General John Burgoyne led a large invasion army southward from Canada in the Champlain Valley , hoping to meet a similar British force marching northward from New York City and another British force marching eastward from Lake Ontario ; the southern and western forces never arrived , and Burgoyne was surrounded by American forces in upstate New York . He fought two small battles to break out which took place 18 days apart on the same ground , 9 miles ( 14 km ) south of Saratoga , New York . They both failed .

              Each of the four listings of apostles in the New Testament ( Mark 3 : 13 -- 19 , Matthew 10 : 1 -- 4 , Luke 6 : 12 -- 16 , and Acts 1 : 13 ) indicate that all the apostles were men . The canonical gospels and the book of Acts give varying names of the twelve apostles . The list in the Gospel of Luke differs from Matthew and Mark at two points . It lists `` Judas the son of James '' instead of `` Thaddeus '' . ( For more information , see Jude the Apostle . ) Unlike the Synoptic Gospels , the Gospel of John does not offer a formal list of apostles . Although it refers to `` the Twelve '' ( John 6 : 67 -- 71 ) , the gospel does not present any elaboration of who these twelve actually were , and the author of the Gospel of John does not mention them all by name . There is also no separation of the terms `` apostles '' and `` disciples '' in John .

              The Celsius scale , previously known as the centigrade scale , is a temperature scale used by the International System of Units ( SI ) . As an SI derived unit , it is used by all countries in the world , except the United States , Myanmar , and Liberia . It is named after the Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius ( 1701 -- 1744 ) , who developed a similar temperature scale . The degree Celsius ( symbol : ° C ) can refer to a specific temperature on the Celsius scale as well as a unit to indicate a temperature interval , a difference between two temperatures or an uncertainty . Before being renamed to honor Anders Celsius in 1948 , the unit was called centigrade , from the Latin centum , which means 100 , and gradus , which means steps .

              In basketball , a turnover occurs when a team loses possession of the ball to the opposing team before a player takes a shot at his team 's basket . This can result from the ball being stolen , the player making mistakes such as stepping out of bounds , illegal screen , a double dribble , having a pass intercepted , throwing the ball out of bounds , three - second violation , five - second violation , or committing an error such as traveling , a shot clock violation , palming , a backcourt violation , or committing an offensive foul . A technical foul against a team that is in possession of the ball is a blatant example of a turnover , because the opponent is awarded a free throw in addition to possession of the ball .

              Chlorofluorocarbons ( CFCs ) are fully halogenated paraffin hydrocarbons that contain only carbon , chlorine , and fluorine , produced as volatile derivative of methane , ethane , and propane . They are also commonly known by the DuPont brand name Freon . The most common representative is dichlorodifluoromethane ( R - 12 or Freon - 12 ) . Many CFCs have been widely used as refrigerants , propellants ( in aerosol applications ) , and solvents . Because CFCs contribute to ozone depletion in the upper atmosphere , the manufacture of such compounds has been phased out under the Montreal Protocol , and they are being replaced with other products such as hydrofluorocarbons ( HFCs ) ( e.g. , R - 410A ) and R - 134a .

              On July 25 , 1898 , during the Spanish -- American War , Puerto Rico was invaded by the United States with a landing at Guánica . As an outcome of the war , the Jones -- Shafroth Act granted all the inhabitants of Puerto Rico U.S. citizenship in 1917 . The U.S. granted Puerto Ricans the right to democratically elect their own governor in 1948 . In 1950 , the Truman Administration allowed for a democratic referendum in Puerto Rico to determine whether Puerto Ricans desired to draft their own local constitution without affecting the unincorporated territory status with the U.S. A local constitution was approved by a Constitutional Convention on February 6 , 1952 , ratified by the U.S. Congress , approved by President Truman on July 3 of that year , and proclaimed by Gov. Muñoz Marín on July 25 , 1952 , the anniversary of the 1898 arrival of U.S. troops . Puerto Rico adopted the name of Estado Libre Asociado ( literally translated as `` Free Associated State '' ) , officially translated into English as Commonwealth , for its body politic .

              However , reference to the harp as the arms of the king of Ireland can be found in one of the oldest medieval rolls of arms . The Wijnbergen Roll , a French roll of arms dating from c. 1280 and preserved in The Hague , Netherlands , attributed `` D'azure a la harpe d'or '' ( English : Blue with a harp of gold ) to the King of Ireland ( `` le Roi d'Irlande '' ) . The harp , traditionally associated with King David , was a rare charge on medieval rolls and only two arms with a harp are listed in a collection of 19 early rolls . Triangular devices appeared on medieval Irish coinage by kings John and Edward I in the 12th and 13th centuries . These devices may have been crude harps or it may be that the harp developed from the use of triangles to distinguish Irish coins . The idea of a harp being the arms of Ireland may have originated as a reference to a fictional character , le roi d'irelande , in the courtly legend cycle of Tristan . Alternatively , it may have derived from a celebrated 13th century bardic poem , Tabhroidh Chugam Cruit mo Riogh , dedicated to the Donnchadh Cairbreach O'Briain ( d . 1242 ) , a Gaelic King of Thomond .

              Nuclear power in space is the use of nuclear power in outer space , typically either small fission systems or radioactive decay for electricity or heat . Another use is for scientific observation , as in a Mössbauer spectrometer . One common type is a radioisotope thermoelectric generator , which has been used on many space probes and on manned lunar missions , and another is small fission reactors for Earth observation satellites such as the TOPAZ nuclear reactor . A radioisotope heater unit provides heat from radioactive decay of a material and can potentially produce heat for decades .

Upperclassmen are intimidating and will steal any lunch money along with loose change if you stand in the wrong place . Scott gets put in advanced classes , including an Honors English class which , despite the amount of homework , is his favorite class . His teacher , Mr. Franka , becomes a mentor to him . Scott finds out that he 's not in classes with his friends since he 's carrying all honors and college prep classes . He tries his best from the very start to get the attention of Julia Baskins , a girl who was in his kindergarten class and has recently become very beautiful over the summer . Because of her beauty she quickly blends in with the popular girls and is attracted to the football players who are often bullying Scott . Scott is also connected to another classmate named Louden , who is better known as Mouth . Scott tries every attempt to get Julia 's attention such as joining the school paper , because he thinks that she is part of the staff , only to discover that she has written only a single column for the paper . He then runs for student council , after finding out that Julia is also running as well , and wins a seat , only to find out that she has not won . Because of this , Scott resigns from his position on the student council . It turns out that a lot of other members also resigned including the president meaning Julia who happened to have the 2nd most amount of votes is now president . He also auditions for the school play and is selected as a member of the crew , thinking that Julia is also auditioning for the play . However , Julia has not been selected as a member of the cast or crew . Soon , a new girl named Lee arrives at school , who wears face pins and weird clothes , and has wildly colored hair . Both soon realize that they share the same interests , but he ca n't get past his crush on Julia . Scott suddenly has another `` friend '' named Wesley , a high school senior . Though they share some interests , they have little in common . Then to put the cherry on top of all this excitement going on in his life , his mother announces that she is pregnant . He copes with all of this by creating a tip book for his soon - to - be baby sibling to help him , or her , survive high school when they get to it . In his entries to the baby , he often shows disdain by using degrading terms to talk to it such as `` Smelly '' or `` Blob of unformed goo '' . But he writes it to be a good older brother to this new baby since Scott 's own brother was never very present . As time goes by , Scott tries to find his place , but he starts to lose his best friends . Mitch finds a girlfriend and soon forgets the group , Patrick moves to Texas , then to Japan , and Kyle joins the wrestling team and soon puts Scott down for having a crush on Julia . Soon , Julia 's boyfriend Vernon beats up Scott after finding out from Kyle ( who lost a fight with Scott ) that Scott has a crush on his girlfriend . Scott realizes that what a person says and does can affect the life of another after Mouth attempts to commit suicide . Later , he learns that not everything is what it seems once he finds out that his older brother , Bobby , who is struggling to find a job , can barely read . Scott 's mother eventually gives birth to a new baby boy , whom they name Sean . Meanwhile , Bobby finds a job through guitar - playing and Julia eventually starts dating a nicer guy , though she is now close to Scott enough to give him a kiss on the cheek .

              Despite warnings by Jeremiah and others of the pro-Babylonian party , Zedekiah revolted against Babylon and entered into an alliance with Pharaoh Hophra . Nebuchadnezzar returned , defeated the Egyptians , and again besieged Jerusalem , resulting in the city 's destruction in 587 BCE . Nebuchadnezzar destroyed the city wall and the Temple , together with the houses of the most important citizens . Zedekiah and his sons were captured , the sons were executed in front of Zedekiah , who was then blinded and taken to Babylon with many others ( Jer 52 : 10 -- 11 ) . Judah became a Babylonian province , called Yehud , putting an end to the independent Kingdom of Judah . ( Because of the missing years in the Jewish calendar , rabbinic sources place the date of the destruction of the First Temple at 3338 HC ( 423 BCE ) or 3358 HC ( 403 BCE ) ) .

              The song was written by Mitch Murray , who offered it to Adam Faith and Brian Poole but was turned down . George Martin of EMI decided to pick it up for the new group he was producing , the Beatles , as the A-side of their first record . The Beatles recorded the song but opposed releasing it , feeling that it did not fit their sound , but worked out changes from Murray 's demo - disc version . These included a new introduction , vocal harmony , an instrumental interlude , small lyric changes and removal of the half - step modulation for the last verse . They recorded the song in September , 1962 ; although Murray disliked their changes , the decision not to release the Beatles ' version was primarily a business one . `` Love Me Do '' was their first single instead . The recording was officially released in November 1995 on the Beatles retrospective Anthology 1 album .

              Assassin 's Creed IV : Black Flag is an action - adventure , stealth game set in an open world environment and played from a third - person perspective . The game features three main cities ; Havana , Kingston , and Nassau , which reside under Spanish , British , and pirate influence , respectively . It also features 50 other individual locations to explore , including atolls , sea forts , Mayan ruins , sugar plantations , and underwater shipwrecks , with a 60 / 40 balance between land and naval exploration . It has a more open world feel , with missions similar to those found in Assassin 's Creed , as well as fewer restrictions for the player . The world opens up sooner in the game , as opposed to Assassin 's Creed III , which had very scripted missions and did not give players freedom to explore until the game was well into its first act . The player will encounter jungles , forts , ruins , and small villages and the world is built to allow players much more freedom , such as allowing players to engage , board , and capture passing ships and swimming to nearby beaches in a seamless fashion . In addition , the hunting system has been retained from Assassin 's Creed III , allowing the player to hunt on land , and fish in the water , with resources gathered used to upgrade equipment .

              Reclamation of the territory became government policy under the regime of the dictator General Franco and has remained in place under successive governments following the Spanish transition to democracy . The Gibraltarians themselves reject any such claim and no political party or pressure group in Gibraltar supports union with Spain . In a referendum in 2002 the people of Gibraltar rejected a joint sovereignty proposal on which Spain and the United Kingdom were said to have reached `` broad agreement '' . The British Government has stated that it would `` never ... enter into an agreement on sovereignty without the agreement of the Government of Gibraltar and their people '' . The British Government now refuses to discuss sovereignty without the consent of the Gibraltarians .

              Gibraltar , a British Overseas Territory , located at the southern tip of the Iberian Peninsula , is the subject of an irredentist territorial claim by Spain . It was captured in 1704 during the War of the Spanish Succession ( 1701 -- 1714 ) . The Spanish Crown formally ceded the territory in perpetuity to the British Crown in 1713 , under Article X of the Treaty of Utrecht . Spain later attempted to recapture the territory during the thirteenth siege ( 1727 ) and the Great siege ( 1779 -- 1783 ) . British sovereignty over Gibraltar was confirmed in later treaties signed in Seville ( 1729 ) and the Treaty of Paris ( 1783 ) .

              Gibraltar was given the Gibraltar Constitution Order 2006 by Britain which established a form of government whereby the Governor of Gibraltar is responsible for the conduct of external affairs , defence , internal security and for certain appointments to public office , and the Government of Gibraltar is made responsible for all other matters . The UK believes that as an independent territory , recognised by the United Nations Gibraltar enjoys the individual and collective rights that are set out in the 2006 constitution and the right of self - determination . Spain disputes the legality of the constitution and claims that it does not change the position of Gibraltar as a colony of the UK with only the UK empowered to discuss Gibraltar matters on the international scene .

              Inequality of opportunity was higher in the transition economies of Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia than in some other developed economies in Western Europe ( except France , where inequality of opportunity was relatively high ) . The highest inequality of opportunity was found in the Balkans and Central Asia . In terms of legal regulations and access to education and health services , inequality of opportunity related to gender was low in Europe and Central Asia but medium to high in respect of labour practices , employment and entrepreneurship and in access to finance . In Central Asia women also experienced significant lack of access to health services , as was the case in Arab countries . While many transition economies performed well with respect to primary and secondary education , and matched that available in many other developed economies , they were weaker when it came to training and tertiary education .

Before them the Portuguese Estado da India had traded there for much of the 16th century and the first of half a dozen Dutch Companies sailed to trade there from 1595 , which amalgamated in March 1602 into the United East Indies Company ( VOC ) , which introduced the first permanent joint stock from 1612 ( meaning investment into shares did not need to be returned , but could be traded on a stock exchange ) . Wealthy merchants and aristocrats owned the EIC 's shares . Initially the government owned no shares and had only indirect control until 1657 when permanent joint stock was established .

                The dermis or corium is a layer of skin between the epidermis ( with which it makes up the cutis ) and subcutaneous tissues , that primarily consists of dense irregular connective tissue and cushions the body from stress and strain . It is divided into two layers , the superficial area adjacent to the epidermis called the papillary region and a deep thicker area known as the reticular dermis . The dermis is tightly connected to the epidermis through a basement membrane . Structural components of the dermis are collagen , elastic fibers , and extrafibrillar matrix . It also contains mechanoreceptors that provide the sense of touch and thermoreceptors that provide the sense of heat . In addition , hair follicles , sweat glands , sebaceous glands , apocrine glands , lymphatic vessels and blood vessels are present in the dermis . Those blood vessels provide nourishment and waste removal for both dermal and epidermal cells .

                The kudzu plant was introduced to the United States from Japan in 1876 at the Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia . Kudzu was introduced to the Southeast in 1883 at the New Orleans Exposition . The vine was widely marketed in the Southeast as an ornamental plant to be used to shade porches , and in the first half of the 20th century , kudzu was distributed as a high - protein content cattle fodder and as a cover plant to prevent soil erosion . It was cultivated by Civilian Conservation Corps workers as a solution for the erosion during the Dust Bowl . The Soil Erosion Service recommended the use of kudzu to help control erosion of slopes which led to the government - aided distribution of 85 million seedlings and government - funded plantings of kudzu which paid $19.75 per hectare . By 1946 , it was estimated that 1,200,000 hectares ( 3,000,000 acres ) of kudzu had been planted . When boll weevil infestations and the failure of cotton crops caused farmers to abandon their farms , kudzu plantings were left unattended . The climate and environment of the Southeastern United States allowed the kudzu to grow virtually unchecked . In 1953 the United States Department of Agriculture removed kudzu from a list of suggested cover plants and listed it as a weed in 1970 . By 1997 , the vine was placed on the `` Federal Noxious Weed List '' . Today , kudzu is estimated to cover 3,000,000 hectares ( 7,400,000 acres ) of land in the southeastern United States , mostly in Alabama , Georgia , Tennessee , Florida , North Carolina , South Carolina and Mississippi . It has been recorded in Nova Scotia , Canada , in Columbus , Ohio , and in all five boroughs of New York City .

                +

                The alveolar process contains a region of compact bone adjacent to the periodontal ligament ( PDL ) , which is called the lamina dura when viewed on radiographs . It is this part which is attached to the cementum of the roots by the periodontal ligament . It is uniformly radiopaque ( or lighter ) . Integrity of the lamina dura is important when studying radiographs for pathological lesions .

                The Siege of Yorktown , also known as the Battle of Yorktown , the Surrender at Yorktown , German Battle or the Siege of Little York , ending on October 19 , 1781 , at Yorktown , Virginia , was a decisive victory by a combined force of American Continental Army troops led by General George Washington and French Army troops led by the Comte de Rochambeau over a British Army commanded by British peer and Lieutenant General Charles Cornwallis . The culmination of the Yorktown campaign , the siege proved to be the last major land battle of the American Revolutionary War in the North American theater , as the surrender by Cornwallis , and the capture of both him and his army , prompted the British government to negotiate an end to the conflict . The battle boosted faltering American morale and revived French enthusiasm for the war , as well as undermining popular support for the conflict in Great Britain .

                Continental drift is the movement of the Earth 's continents relative to each other , thus appearing to `` drift '' across the ocean bed . The speculation that continents might have ' drifted ' was first put forward by Abraham Ortelius in 1596 . The concept was independently and more fully developed by Alfred Wegener in 1912 , but his theory was rejected by some for lack of a mechanism ( though this was supplied later by Arthur Holmes ) . The idea of continental drift has been subsumed by the theory of plate tectonics , which explains how the continents move .

                Epidemiology is the study and analysis of the distribution and determinants of health and disease conditions in defined populations . It is the cornerstone of public health , and shapes policy decisions and evidence - based practice by identifying risk factors for disease and targets for preventive healthcare . Epidemiologists help with study design , collection , and statistical analysis of data , amend interpretation and dissemination of results ( including peer review and occasional systematic review ) . Epidemiology has helped develop methodology used in clinical research , public health studies , and , to a lesser extent , basic research in the biological sciences .

                Epidemiologists employ a range of study designs from the observational to experimental and generally categorized as descriptive , analytic ( aiming to further examine known associations or hypothesized relationships ) , and experimental ( a term often equated with clinical or community trials of treatments and other interventions ) . In observational studies , nature is allowed to `` take its course , '' as epidemiologists observe from the sidelines . Conversely , in experimental studies , the epidemiologist is the one in control of all of the factors entering a certain case study . Epidemiological studies are aimed , where possible , at revealing unbiased relationships between exposures such as alcohol or smoking , biological agents , stress , or chemicals to mortality or morbidity . The identification of causal relationships between these exposures and outcomes is an important aspect of epidemiology . Modern epidemiologists use informatics as a tool .

                Beginning in 1938 , the U.S. adopted a succession of increasingly restrictive trade restrictions with Japan . This included terminating its 1911 commercial treaty with Japan in 1939 , further tightened by the Export Control Act of 1940 . These efforts failed to deter Japan from continuing its war in China , or from signing the Tripartite Pact in 1940 with Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy , officially forming the Axis Powers .

                Plasmodesmata ( singular : plasmodesma ) are microscopic channels which traverse the cell walls of plant cells and some algal cells , enabling transport and communication between them . Plasmodesmata evolved independently in several lineages , and species that have these structures include members of the Charophyceae , Charales , Coleochaetales and Phaeophyceae ( which are all algae ) , as well as all embryophytes , better known as land plants . Unlike animal cells , almost every plant cell is surrounded by a polysaccharide cell wall . Neighbouring plant cells are therefore separated by a pair of cell walls and the intervening middle lamella , forming an extracellular domain known as the apoplast . Although cell walls are permeable to small soluble proteins and other solutes , plasmodesmata enable direct , regulated , symplastic transport of substances between cells . There are two forms of plasmodesmata : primary plasmodesmata , which are formed during cell division , and secondary plasmodesmata , which can form between mature cells .

                By late 1922 , the German defaults on payments had grown so regular that a crisis engulfed the Reparations Commission ; the French and Belgian delegates urged occupying the Ruhr as a way of forcing Germany to pay more , while the British delegate urged a lowering of the payments . As a consequence of a German default on timber deliveries in December 1922 , the Reparations Commission declared Germany in default , which led to the Franco - Belgian occupation of the Ruhr in January 1923 . Particularly galling to the French was that the timber quota the Germans defaulted on was based on an assessment of their capacity the Germans made themselves and subsequently lowered . The Allies believed that the government of Chancellor Wilhelm Cuno had defaulted on the timber deliveries deliberately as a way of testing the will of the Allies to enforce the treaty . The entire conflict was further exacerbated by a German default on coal deliveries in early January 1923 , which was the thirty - fourth coal default in the previous thirty - six months . The French Premier Raymond Poincaré was deeply reluctant to order the Ruhr occupation and took this step only after the British had rejected his proposals for non-military sanctions against Germany . Frustrated at Germany not paying reparations , Poincaré hoped for joint Anglo - French economic sanctions against Germany in 1922 and opposed military action . However , by December 1922 he was faced with Anglo - American - German opposition and saw coal for French steel production and payments in money as laid out in the Treaty of Versailles draining away . Poincaré was exasperated with British opposition , and wrote to the French ambassador in London :

                Initiated by French Prime Minister Raymond Poincaré , the invasion took place on 11 January 1923 . General Alphonse Caron 's 32nd infantry corps under the supervision of General Jean - Marie Degoutte carried out the operation . Some theories state that the French aimed to occupy the centre of German coal , iron , and steel production in the Ruhr area valley simply to get the money . Some others state that France did it to ensure that the reparations were paid in goods , because the Mark was practically worthless because of hyperinflation that already existed at the end of 1922 . France had the iron ore and Germany had the coal . Each state wanted free access to the resource it was short of , as together these resources had far more value than separately . ( Eventually this problem was resolved in the post-World War II European Coal and Steel community . )

                The rebellion began on 10 May 1857 in the form of a mutiny of sepoys of the Company 's army in the garrison town of Meerut , 40 miles northeast of Delhi ( now Old Delhi ) . It then erupted into other mutinies and civilian rebellions chiefly in the upper Gangetic plain and central India , though incidents of revolt also occurred farther north and east . The rebellion posed a considerable threat to British power in that region , and was contained only with the rebels ' defeat in Gwalior on 20 June 1858 . On 1 November 1858 , the British granted amnesty to all rebels not involved in murder , though they did not declare the hostilities formally to have ended until 8 July 1859 .

                Santiago Ramón y Cajal proposed that neurons are not continuous throughout the body , yet still communicate with each other , an idea known as the neuron doctrine . The word `` synapse '' -- from the Greek synapsis ( συνάψις ) , meaning `` conjunction '' , in turn from συνάπτεὶν ( συν ( `` together '' ) and ἅπτειν ( `` to fasten '' ) ) -- was introduced in 1897 by the English neurophysiologist Charles Sherrington in Michael Foster 's Textbook of Physiology . Sherrington struggled to find a good term that emphasized a union between two separate elements , and the actual term `` synapse '' was suggested by the English classical scholar Arthur Woollgar Verrall , a friend of Michael Foster . Some authors generalize the concept of the synapse to include the communication from a neuron to any other cell type , such as to a motor cell , although such non-neuronal contacts may be referred to as junctions ( a historically older term ) .

                Gestalt psychology or gestaltism ( German : Gestalt ( ɡəˈʃtalt ) `` shape , form '' ) is a philosophy of mind of the Berlin School of experimental psychology . Gestalt psychology is an attempt to understand the laws behind the ability to acquire and maintain meaningful perceptions in an apparently chaotic world . The central principle of gestalt psychology is that the mind forms a global whole with self - organizing tendencies . The assumed physiological mechanisms on which Gestalt theory rests are poorly defined and support for their existence is lacking . The Gestalt theory of perception has been criticized as being descriptive of the end products of perception without providing much insight into the processes that lead to perception . In the introduction to a 2016 special issue of the journal Vision Research on Gestalt perception , the authors concluded that `` even though they study the same phenomena as earlier Gestaltists , there is little theoretical coherence . What happened to the Gestalt school that always aspired to provide a unified vision of psychology ? Perhaps there is , in fact , little that holds the classic phenomena of Gestalt psychology together . ''

                The origin and history of coffee dates back to the 10th century , and possibly earlier with a number of reports and legends surrounding its first use . The native ( undomesticated ) origin of coffee is thought to have been Ethiopia . The earliest substantiated evidence of either coffee drinking or knowledge of the coffee tree is from the 15th century , in the Sufi monasteries of Yemen . By the 16th century , it had reached the rest of the Middle East , South India ( Coorg ) , Persia , Turkey , Horn of Africa , and northern Africa . Coffee then spread to the Balkans , Italy and to the rest of Europe , to South East Asia and then to America .

                The Roman Empire ( Latin : Imperium Rōmānum , Classical Latin : ( ɪmˈpɛ. ri. ũː roːˈmaː. nũː ) ; Koine and Medieval Greek : Βασιλεία τῶν Ῥωμαίων , tr . Basileia tōn Rhōmaiōn ) was the post-Roman Republic period of the ancient Roman civilization , characterized by government headed by emperors and large territorial holdings around the Mediterranean Sea in Europe , Africa and Asia . The city of Rome was the largest city in the world c. 100 BC -- c . AD 400 , with Constantinople ( New Rome ) becoming the largest around AD 500 , and the Empire 's populace grew to an estimated 50 to 90 million inhabitants ( roughly 20 % of the world 's population at the time ) . The 500 - year - old republic which preceded it was severely destabilized in a series of civil wars and political conflict , during which Julius Caesar was appointed as perpetual dictator and then assassinated in 44 BC . Civil wars and executions continued , culminating in the victory of Octavian , Caesar 's adopted son , over Mark Antony and Cleopatra at the Battle of Actium in 31 BC and the annexation of Egypt . Octavian 's power was then unassailable and in 27 BC the Roman Senate formally granted him overarching power and the new title Augustus , effectively marking the end of the Roman Republic .

                Long John Silver is a cunning and opportunistic pirate who was quartermaster under the notorious Captain Flint . Long John Silver had a pet parrot called Captain Flint , often seen sitting on his shoulder where she would nibble on seeds . Silver claims to have served in the Royal Navy and lost his leg under `` the immortal Hawke '' . `` His left leg was cut off close by the hip , and under the left shoulder , he carried a crutch , which he managed with wonderful dexterity , hopping about upon it like a bird . He was very tall and strong , with a face as big as a ham -- plain and pale , but intelligent and smiling . '' ( Treasure Island ( 1883 ) by Robert Louis Stevenson page 82 ) . He claims to have been the only man whom Flint ever feared . Like many of Stevenson 's characters , there is more than a modicum of duality in the character ; ostensibly Silver is a hardworking and likeable seaman , and it is only as the plot unfolds that his villainous nature is gradually revealed . His relationship with Jim Hawkins , the novel 's protagonist and narrator , is interesting , as he serves as a mentor and eventually father - figure to Jim , creating much shock and emotion when it is discovered that he is in charge of the mutiny , and especially when Jim must confront and fight him later on . Although willing to change sides at any time to further his own interests , Silver has compensating virtues : he is wise enough to pay attention to money management , in contrast to the spendthrift ways of most of the pirates , and is physically courageous despite his disability ; for instance , when Flint 's cache is found to be empty , he coolly stands his ground against five active seamen despite having only Jim , a boy in his teens , to back him .

                Initially , the US stores were the result of natural expansion in Canada -- US border areas ( e.g. , stores in Maine and the Buffalo , New York area where Horton played from 1972 to 1974 as a member of the Buffalo Sabres ) . The first United States locations were opened in Deerfield Beach , Florida and Pompano Beach , Florida in 1981 , but they proved unsuccessful and were closed . In 1985 , the chain returned to the US with a location on Niagara Falls Boulevard in the Buffalo suburb of Amherst , New York . Starting in the mid-1990s , however , the chain began expanding in the US by acquiring former locations from fast food chains . In 1996 and 1997 , thirty - seven former Rax Restaurants locations in Ohio , Kentucky , and West Virginia were bought by Wendy 's International Inc. ; 30 of these were converted to Tim Hortons , while the others became Wendy 's franchise locations . Thirty - five closed Hardee 's stores in the Detroit area were also purchased with the intention of being converted . By 2004 , the chain had also acquired 42 Bess Eaton coffee and doughnut restaurants situated in southern New England . Several combination Wendy 's / Tim Hortons units were opened in the US ; both in the `` traditional '' markets of Maine and Buffalo , where there were well over 180 locations as of 2011 , and in the markets entered through acquisition .

                Development for both The Lightning Thief and the Percy Jackson series commenced when Rick Riordan began making stories for his son Haley Riordan , who had at the time been diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia . His son , Haley , had been studying Greek mythology in second grade and requested that his father tell him bedtime stories based on Greek myths . When Riordan ran out of myths , his son suggested that he make up new stories using existing mythological characters and new ones . This led Riordan to create the fictional character of Percy Jackson and create the story of how he travels across the United States to recover Zeus 's lightning - bolt . Haley suggested that he should turn that story into a book , and Riordan wrote the book over the next year despite being busy at that time .

                The position of the Arctic Circle is not fixed ; as of 9 January 2018 , it runs 66 ° 33 ′ 47.0 '' north of the Equator . Its latitude depends on the Earth 's axial tilt , which fluctuates within a margin of 2 ° over a 40,000 - year period , due to tidal forces resulting from the orbit of the Moon . Consequently , the Arctic Circle is currently drifting northwards at a speed of about 15 metres ( 49 feet ) per year .

                `` Wah - Wah '' is a song by English musician George Harrison , released on his 1970 triple album All Things Must Pass . Harrison wrote the song following his temporary departure from the Beatles in January 1969 , during the troubled Get Back sessions that resulted in their Let It Be album and film . The lyrics reflect his frustration with the atmosphere in the group at that time -- namely , Paul McCartney 's over-assertiveness and criticism of his guitar playing , John Lennon 's lack of engagement with the project and dismissal of Harrison as a songwriter , and Yoko Ono 's constant involvement in the band 's activities . Music critics and biographers recognise the song as Harrison 's statement of personal and artistic freedom from the Beatles . Its creation contrasted sharply with his rewarding collaborations outside the group in the months before the Get Back project , particularly with Bob Dylan and the Band in upstate New York .

                The Spanish conquest of the Inca Empire was one of the most important campaigns in the Spanish colonization of the Americas . After years of preliminary exploration and military skirmishes , 180 Spanish soldiers under conquistador Francisco Pizarro , his brothers , and their native allies captured the Sapa Inca Atahualpa in the 1532 Battle of Cajamarca . It was the first step in a long campaign that took decades of fighting but ended in Spanish victory in 1572 and colonization of the region as the Viceroyalty of Peru . The conquest of the Inca Empire ( called `` Tahuantinsuyu '' or `` Tawantinsuyu '' in Quechua , meaning `` Realm of the Four Parts '' ) , led to spin - off campaigns into present - day Chile and Colombia , as well as expeditions towards the Amazon Basin .

                A flat - wick lamp is a simple type of kerosene lamp , which burns kerosene drawn up through a wick by capillary action . If this type of lamp is broken , it can easily start a fire . A flat - wick lamp has a fuel tank ( fount ) , with the lamp burner attached . Attached to the fuel tank , four prongs hold the glass chimney , which acts to prevent the flame from being blown out and enhances a thermally induced draft . The glass chimney needs a `` throat '' , or slight constriction , to create the proper draft for complete combustion of the fuel ; the draft carries more air ( oxygen ) past the flame , helping to produce a smokeless light , which is brighter than an open flame would produce .

                The post translational modification of proinsulin to mature insulin only occurs in the beta cells of the islets of Langerhans . When proinsulin is transported through the Golgi apparatus the C - peptide is cleaved . This cleavage occurs with the aid of two endoproteases . Type I endoproteases , PC1 and PC3 , disrupt the C peptide - B chain connection . PC2 , a type II endoprotease , cleaves the C peptide - A chain bond . The resulting molecule , now mature insulin , is stored as a hexamer in secretory vesicles and is stabilized with Z n 2 + ( \ displaystyle Zn ^ ( 2 + ) ) molecules until it is secreted .

                A rotation is a circular movement of an object around a center ( or point ) of rotation . A three - dimensional object can always be rotated around an infinite number of imaginary lines called rotation axes ( / ˈæksiːz / AK - seez ) . If the axis passes through the body 's center of mass , the body is said to rotate upon itself , or spin . A rotation about an external point , e.g. the Earth about the Sun , is called a revolution or orbital revolution , typically when it is produced by gravity . The axis is called a pole .

                +

                A rotation is simply a progressive radial orientation to a common point . That common point lies within the axis of that motion . The axis is 90 degrees perpendicular to the plane of the motion . If the axis of the rotation lies external of the body in question then the body is said to orbit . There is no fundamental difference between a `` rotation '' and an `` orbit '' and or `` spin '' . The key distinction is simply where the axis of the rotation lies , either within or outside of a body in question . This distinction can be demonstrated for both `` rigid '' and `` non rigid '' bodies .

                The type I error rate or significance level is the probability of rejecting the null hypothesis given that it is true . It is denoted by the Greek letter α ( alpha ) and is also called the alpha level . Often , the significance level is set to 0.05 ( 5 % ) , implying that it is acceptable to have a 5 % probability of incorrectly rejecting the null hypothesis .

                Liberal arts education ( Latin : liberalis , free and ars , art or principled practice ) can claim to be the oldest programme of higher education in Western history . It has its origin in the attempt to discover first principles -- ' those universal principles which are the condition of the possibility of the existence of anything and everything ' . The liberal arts are those subjects or skills that in classical antiquity were considered essential for a free person ( Latin : liberalis , `` worthy of a free person '' ) to know in order to take an active part in civic life , something that ( for Ancient Greece ) included participating in public debate , defending oneself in court , serving on juries , and most importantly , military service . Grammar , logic , and rhetoric were the core liberal arts ( the Trivium ) , while arithmetic , geometry , the theory of music , and astronomy also played a ( somewhat lesser ) part in education ( as the Quadrivium ) .

                Every person accused of a crime punishable by incarceration for more than six months has a constitutionally protected right to a trial by jury , which arises in federal court from Article Three of the United States Constitution , which states in part , `` The Trial of all Crimes ... shall be by Jury ; and such Trial shall be held in the State where the said Crimes shall have been committed . '' The right was expanded with the Sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution , which states in part , `` In all criminal prosecutions , the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial , by an impartial jury of the state and district wherein the crime shall have been committed . '' Both provisions were made applicable to the states through the Fourteenth Amendment . Most states ' constitutions also grant the right of trial by jury in lesser criminal matters , though most have abrogated that right in offenses punishable by fine only . The Supreme Court has ruled that if imprisonment is for six months or less , trial by jury is not required , meaning a state may choose whether or not to permit trial by jury in such cases . Under the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure , if the defendant is entitled to a jury trial , he may waive his right to have a jury , but both the government ( prosecution ) and court must consent to the waiver . Several states require jury trials for all crimes , `` petty '' or not .

                This is a list of host cities of the Olympic Games , both summer and winter , since the modern Olympics began in 1896 . Since then , summer games have usually -- but not always -- celebrated a four - year period known as an Olympiad . There have been 28 Summer Olympic Games held in 23 cities , and 23 Winter Olympic Games held in 20 cities . In addition , three summer and two winter editions of the Games were scheduled to take place but later cancelled due to war : Berlin ( summer ) in 1916 ; Tokyo / Helsinki ( summer ) and Sapporo / Garmisch - Partenkirchen ( winter ) in 1940 ; and London ( summer ) and Cortina d'Ampezzo , Italy ( winter ) in 1944 . The 1906 Summer Olympics were officially sanctioned and held in Athens . However , in 1949 , the International Olympic Committee ( IOC ) , decided to unrecognize the 1906 Games . Four cities have been chosen by the IOC to host upcoming Olympic Games : Tokyo for the 2020 Summer Olympics , Beijing for the 2022 Winter Olympics , Paris for the 2024 Summer Olympics , and Los Angeles for the 2028 Summer Olympics .

              • Twisty the Clown ( portrayed by John Carroll Lynch ) originally was a slow - witted but gentle clown at a freak show in 1943 . Jealous of his popularity , the freaks of the carnival spread rumors that he was a child molester and drove him away . With nowhere else to go , he returned home to Jupiter , Florida , only to find that his mother had died . After failing to support himself by selling toys made of junk to a local toy store , Twisty attempted suicide by putting a shotgun in his mouth . However , the attempt failed -- he succeeded only in mutilating his lower jaw -- and he later began to wear a grinning mask over the lower part of his face . Twisty then tried to perform as a clown at Elsa 's freak show , but was turned away . Twisty then snapped and went on a killing spree , abducting children to be his audience , while murdering their `` mean '' parents . He kidnaps Corey Bachman and murders his parents , after kidnapping Bonnie Lipton to serve as his audience 's babysitter . Gloria hires Twisty to entertain Dandy , who becomes his accomplice . Twisty and Dandy hold a magic show on Halloween , before Jimmy knocks Dandy unconscious and Maggie gets Corey and Bonnie to safety . Twisty then knocks Jimmy out before encountering Edward Mordrake , who was attracted by the noise of the clown 's performance .

                Lōihi Seamount ( also known as Lōʻihi ) is an active submarine volcano about 35 km ( 22 mi ) off the southeast coast of the island of Hawaii . The top of the seamount is about 975 m ( 3,000 ft ) below sea level . This seamount is on the flank of Mauna Loa , the largest shield volcano on Earth . Lōihi , meaning `` long '' in Hawaiian , is the newest volcano in the Hawaiian - Emperor seamount chain , a string of volcanoes that stretches over 5,800 km ( 3,600 mi ) northwest of Lōʻihi . Unlike most active volcanoes in the Pacific Ocean that make up the active plate margins on the Pacific Ring of Fire , Lōʻihi and the other volcanoes of the Hawaiian - Emperor seamount chain are hotspot volcanoes and formed well away from the nearest plate boundary . Volcanoes in the Hawaiian Islands arise from the Hawaii hotspot , and as the youngest volcano in the chain , Lōihi is the only Hawaiian volcano in the deep submarine preshield stage of development .

                In the original 1968 film The Thomas Crown Affair , the song is heard -- sung by Noel Harrison -- during opening credits ; and , during the film , in a scene in which the character Thomas Crown flies a glider at the glider airport in Salem , New Hampshire : having edited the rough cut for this scene utilizing the Beatles track `` Strawberry Fields Forever '' producer / director Norman Jewison commissioned an original song be written for the glider scene which would reference the ambivalent feelings of Thomas Crown as he engages in a favorite pastime while experiencing the tension of preparing to commit a major robbery . Alan Bergman : `` Michel ( Legrand ) played us ( ie . Alan and Marilyn Bergman ) seven or eight melodies . We listened to all of them and decided to wait until the next day to choose one . We three decided on the same one , a long baroque melody ... The lyric we wrote was stream - of - consciousness . We felt that the song had to be a mind trip of some kind '' -- `` The ( eventual ) title was ( originally ) a line at the end of a section ... When we finished we said : `` What do we call this ? It 's got to have a title . That line is kind of interesting . ' So we restructured the song so that the line appeared again at the end . It came out of the body of the song . I think we were thinking , you know when you try to fall asleep at night and you ca n't turn your brain off and thoughts and memories tumble . ''

                Erythropoiesis is the process by which new red blood cells are produced ; it lasts about 7 days . Through this process red blood cells are continuously produced in the red bone marrow of large bones . ( In the embryo , the liver is the main site of red blood cell production . ) The production can be stimulated by the hormone erythropoietin ( EPO ) , synthesised by the kidney . Just before and after leaving the bone marrow , the developing cells are known as reticulocytes ; these constitute about 1 % of circulating red blood cells .

                In humans , mature red blood cells are flexible and oval biconcave disks . They lack a cell nucleus and most organelles , in order to accommodate maximum space for hemoglobin ; they can be viewed as sacks of hemoglobin , with a plasma membrane as the sack . Approximately 2.4 million new erythrocytes are produced per second in human adults . The cells develop in the bone marrow and circulate for about 100 -- 120 days in the body before their components are recycled by macrophages . Each circulation takes about 60 seconds ( one minute ) . Approximately a quarter of the cells in the human body are red blood cells . Nearly half of the blood 's volume ( 40 % to 45 % ) is red blood cells .

Twisty then tried to perform as a clown at Elsa 's freak show , but was turned away . Twisty then snapped and went on a killing spree , abducting children to be his audience , while murdering their `` mean '' parents . He kidnaps Corey Bachman and murders his parents , after kidnapping Bonnie Lipton to serve as his audience 's babysitter . Gloria hires Twisty to entertain Dandy , who becomes his accomplice . Twisty and Dandy hold a magic show on Halloween , before Jimmy knocks Dandy unconscious and Maggie gets Corey and Bonnie to safety . Twisty then knocks Jimmy out before encountering Edward Mordrake , who was attracted by the noise of the clown 's performance . Twisty tells Mordrake his story , and Mordrake deems the clown suitable to be in his entourage of damned souls and kills him . When Elsa summons Mordrake in 1962 , Twisty appears alongside the other freaks and comforts her in her last moments . According to director Ryan Murphy , Lynch was so terrifying as this character that `` half the time , almost a third of the crew left the set when they shot his scenes because they were afraid of him .

                  Players are currently inducted into the Hall of Fame through election by either the Baseball Writers ' Association of America ( or BBWAA ) , or the Veterans Committee , which now consists of four subcommittees , each of which considers and votes for candidates from a separate era of baseball . Five years after retirement , any player with 10 years of major league experience who passes a screening committee ( which removes from consideration players of clearly lesser qualification ) is eligible to be elected by BBWAA members with 10 years ' membership or more who also have been actively covering MLB at any time in the 10 years preceding the election ( the latter requirement was added for the 2016 election ) . From a final ballot typically including 25 -- 40 candidates , each writer may vote for up to 10 players ; until the late 1950s , voters were advised to cast votes for the maximum 10 candidates . Any player named on 75 % or more of all ballots cast is elected . A player who is named on fewer than 5 % of ballots is dropped from future elections . In some instances , the screening committee had restored their names to later ballots , but in the mid-1990s , dropped players were made permanently ineligible for Hall of Fame consideration , even by the Veterans Committee . A 2001 change in the election procedures restored the eligibility of these dropped players ; while their names will not appear on future BBWAA ballots , they may be considered by the Veterans Committee . Players receiving 5 % or more of the votes but fewer than 75 % are reconsidered annually until a maximum of ten years of eligibility ( lowered from fifteen years for the 2015 election ) .

                  The federal and state governments have traditionally cooperated to some extent to improve vital statistics . From 1900 to 1946 the U.S. Census Bureau designed standard birth certificates , collected vital statistics on a national basis , and generally sought to improve the accuracy of vital statistics . In 1946 that responsibility was passed to the U.S. Public Health Service . Unlike the British system of recording all births in `` registers '' , the states file an individual document for each and every birth .

                  +

                  The documentation of births is a practice widely held throughout human civilization , especially in China , Egypt , Greece , Rome , and Persia . The original purpose of vital statistics was for tax purposes and for the determination of available military manpower . In England , births were initially registered with churches , who maintained registers of births . This practice continued into the 19th century . The compulsory registration of births with the United Kingdom government is a practice that originated at least as far back as 1853 . The entire United States did not get a standardized system until 1902 .

                  The most well - known version of the story is an award - winning 1933 Silly Symphony cartoon , which was produced by Walt Disney . The production cast the title characters as Fifer Pig , Fiddler Pig , and Practical Pig . The first two are depicted as both frivolous and arrogant . The story has been somewhat softened . The first two pigs still get their houses blown down , but escape from the wolf . Also , the wolf is not boiled to death but simply burns his behind and runs away . Three sequels soon followed in 1934 , 1936 and 1939 respectively .

                  A United States Navy enlisted rate indicates where an enlisted sailor stands within the chain of command , and also defines one 's pay grade . An enlisted sailor 's rate is similar conceptually to a naval officer 's rank . Only naval officers carry the term `` rank '' . The word rate refers to an enlisted sailor 's pay grade , while the word rating refers to one 's area of occupational specialization within the enlisted Navy . Associated with the enlisted pay grades is a numbering system from the most junior enlisted sailor ( `` E-1 '' ) to the most senior enlisted sailor ( `` E-9 '' ) . This enlisted numbering system is the same across all five branches of the U.S. military . All E-1 through E-3 are known as Seamen . E-4 through E-6 are called petty officers . All E-7s are called chief petty officer , E-8s senior chief petty officer , and E-9s master chief petty officer . Rates are displayed on a rating badge , which is a combination of rate and rating . E-2s and E-3s have color - coded group rate marks based on their career field . Personnel in pay grade E-1 , since 1996 , do not have an insignia to wear .

                  The Three Little Pigs was included in The Nursery Rhymes of England ( London and New York , c. 1886 ) , by James Halliwell - Phillipps . The story in its arguably best - known form appeared in English Fairy Tales by Joseph Jacobs , first published in 1890 and crediting Halliwell as his source . The story begins with the title characters being sent out into the world by their mother , to `` seek out their fortune '' . The first little pig builds a house of straw , but a wolf blows it down and devours him . The second little pig builds a house of sticks , which the wolf also blows down , and the second little pig is also devoured . Each exchange between wolf and pig features ringing proverbial phrases , namely :

                  The Treaty of Chaumont in 1814 had reaffirmed decisions that had been made already and that would be ratified by the more important Congress of Vienna of 1814 - 15 . They included the establishment of a confederated Germany , the division of Italy into independent states , the restoration of the Bourbon kings of Spain , and the enlargement of the Netherlands to include what in 1830 became modern Belgium . The Treaty of Chaumont became the cornerstone of the European Alliance that formed the balance of power for decades . Other partial settlements had already occurred at the Treaty of Paris between France and the Sixth Coalition , and the Treaty of Kiel that covered issues raised regarding Scandinavia . The Treaty of Paris had determined that a `` general congress '' should be held in Vienna and that invitations would be issued to `` all the Powers engaged on either side in the present war '' . The opening was scheduled for July 1814 .

                  The brand derives its name from the fact that the original brewery , which was established in 1857 by Lüder Rutenberg , was located next to the former St. Paul 's Friary ( de ) in Bremen . There are currently three brands of beer brewed : St. Pauli Girl Lager , St. Pauli Girl Special Dark and St. Pauli Non-Alcoholic Malt Beverage . The beer is only produced for export and is not sold in Germany .

                  This was the first impeachment of a President since creation of the office in 1789 . The culmination of a lengthy political battle between Johnson , a lifelong Democrat and the Republican majority in Congress over how best to deal with the defeated Southern states following the conclusion of the American Civil War , the impeachment , and the subsequent trial ( and acquittal ) of Johnson were among the most dramatic events in the political life of the nation during the Reconstruction Era . Together , they have gained a historical reputation as an act of political expedience , rather than necessity , which was based on Johnson 's defiance of an unconstitutional piece of legislation , and which was conducted with little regard for the will of a general public which , despite the unpopularity of Johnson , opposed the impeachment .

                  Bitwise operations are contrasted by byte - level operations which characterize the bitwise operators ' logical counterparts , the AND , OR and NOT operators . Instead of performing on individual bits , byte - level operators perform on strings of eight bits ( known as bytes ) at a time . The reason for this is that a byte is normally the smallest unit of addressable memory ( i.e. data with a unique memory address . )

                  Following Bacon 's advice , the scientific search for the formal cause of things is now replaced by the search for `` laws of nature '' or `` laws of physics '' in all scientific thinking . To use Aristotle 's well - known terminology these are descriptions of efficient cause , and not formal cause or final cause . It means modern science limits its hypothesizing about non-physical things to the assumption that there are regularities to the ways of all things which do not change .

                  Seth MacFarlane voices three of the show 's main characters : Peter Griffin , Brian Griffin , and Stewie Griffin . MacFarlane chose to voice these characters himself , believing it would be easier to portray the voices he had already envisioned than for someone else to attempt it . MacFarlane drew inspiration for the voice of Peter from a security guard he overheard talking while attending the Rhode Island School of Design . Stewie 's voice was based on the voice of English actor Rex Harrison , especially his performance in the 1964 musical drama film My Fair Lady . MacFarlane uses his own voice while portraying Brian .

                  The cup is an English unit of volume , most commonly associated with cooking and serving sizes . It is traditionally equal to half a liquid pint in either US customary units or the British imperial system but is now separately defined in terms of the metric system at values between ⁄ and ⁄ of a liter . Because actual drinking cups may differ greatly from the size of this unit , standard measuring cups are usually used instead .

                    The Impeachment of Andrew Johnson occurred in 1868 , when the United States House of Representatives resolved to impeach President Andrew Johnson , adopting eleven articles of impeachment detailing his `` high crimes and misdemeanors , '' in accordance with Article Two of the United States Constitution . The House 's primary charge against Johnson was violation of the Tenure of Office Act , passed by the U.S. Congress in March 1867 , over the president 's veto . Specifically , he had removed from office Edwin M. Stanton , the Secretary of War -- whom the Act was largely designed to protect -- and attempted to replace him with Brevet Major General Lorenzo Thomas ( Earlier , while Congress was not in session , Johnson had suspended Stanton and appointed General Ulysses S. Grant as secretary of war ad interim ) .

                    In 1983 , Richard Stallman , founder of the Free Software Foundation , set forth plans of a complete Unix - like operating system , called GNU , composed entirely of free software . In September of that year , Stallman published a manifesto in Dr. Dobb 's Journal detailing his new project publicly , outlining his vision of free software . Software development work began in January 1984 . By 1991 , the GNU mid-level portions of the operating system were almost complete , and the upper level could be supplied by the X Window System , but the lower level ( kernel , device drivers , system - level utilities and daemons ) was still mostly lacking . The GNU kernel was called GNU Hurd . The Hurd followed an ambitious design which proved unexpectedly difficult to implement and has only been marginally usable .

In 2012 they were ranked the best selling cake or biscuit in the United Kingdom .

                    The geopolitical divisions in Europe that created a concept of East and West originated in the Roman Empire . The Eastern Mediterranean was home to the highly urbanized cultures that had Greek as their common language ( owing to the older empire of Alexander the Great and of the Hellenistic successors ) , whereas the West was much more rural in its character and more readily adopted Latin as its common language . After the fall of the Western Roman Empire , Western and Central Europe were substantially cut off from the East where Byzantine Greek culture and Eastern Christianity became founding influences in the Arab / Muslim world and among the Eastern and Southern Slavic peoples . Roman Catholic Western and Central Europe , as such , maintained a distinct identity particularly as it began to redevelop during the Renaissance . Even following the Protestant Reformation , Protestant Europe continued to see itself as more tied to Roman Catholic Europe than other parts of the perceived civilized world .

                    This calendar era is based on the traditionally reckoned year of the conception or birth of Jesus of Nazareth , with AD counting years from the start of this epoch , and BC denoting years before the start of the era . There is no year zero in this scheme , so the year AD 1 immediately follows the year 1 BC . This dating system was devised in 525 by Dionysius Exiguus of Scythia Minor , but was not widely used until after 800 .

                    In astronomy , axial precession is a gravity - induced , slow , and continuous change in the orientation of an astronomical body 's rotational axis . In particular , it can refer to the gradual shift in the orientation of Earth 's axis of rotation , which , similar to a wobbling top , traces out a pair of cones joined at their apices in a cycle of approximately 26,000 years . The term `` precession '' typically refers only to this largest part of the motion ; other changes in the alignment of Earth 's axis -- nutation and polar motion -- are much smaller in magnitude .

                    Benzodiazepines enhance the effect of the neurotransmitter gamma - aminobutyric acid ( GABA ) at the GABA receptor , resulting in sedative , hypnotic ( sleep - inducing ) , anxiolytic ( anti-anxiety ) , anticonvulsant , and muscle relaxant properties . High doses of many shorter - acting benzodiazepines may also cause anterograde amnesia and dissociation . These properties make benzodiazepines useful in treating anxiety , insomnia , agitation , seizures , muscle spasms , alcohol withdrawal and as a premedication for medical or dental procedures . Benzodiazepines are categorized as either short - , intermediate - , or long - acting . Short - and intermediate - acting benzodiazepines are preferred for the treatment of insomnia ; longer - acting benzodiazepines are recommended for the treatment of anxiety .

                    Proponents of the term GNU / Linux note that GNU alone would be just as good a name for GNU variants which combine the GNU operating system software with software from other sources . GNU / Linux is a term promoted by the Free Software Foundation ( FSF ) and its founder Richard Stallman . Proponents call for the correction of the more extended term , on the grounds that it does n't give credit to the major contributor and the associated free software philosophy . GNU is a longstanding project begun in 1984 to develop a free operating system . It is argued that when the Linux kernel was independently created in 1991 , it merely provided a substantial missing piece . Several distributions employ the FSF - endorsed name , such as Debian , Trisquel and Parabola GNU / Linux - libre .

                  • Benzodiazepines are effective as medication given a couple of hours before surgery to relieve anxiety . They also produce amnesia , which can be useful , as patients may not remember unpleasantness from the procedure . They are also used in patients with dental phobia as well as some ophthalmic procedures like refractive surgery ; although such use is controversial and only recommended for those who are very anxious . Midazolam is the most commonly prescribed for this use because of its strong sedative actions and fast recovery time , as well as its water solubility , which reduces pain upon injection . Diazepam and lorazepam are sometimes used . Lorazepam has particularly marked amnesic properties that may make it more effective when amnesia is the desired effect .

                    According to European folklore , the stork is responsible for bringing babies to new parents . The legend is very ancient , but was popularised by a 19th - century Hans Christian Andersen story called The Storks . German folklore held that storks found babies in caves or marshes and brought them to households in a basket on their backs or held in their beaks . These caves contained adebarsteine or `` stork stones '' . The babies would then be given to the mother or dropped down the chimney . Households would notify when they wanted children by placing sweets for the stork on the window sill . From there the folklore has spread around the world to the Philippines and countries in South America . Birthmarks on the back of the head of newborn baby , nevus flammeus nuchae , are sometimes referred to as stork - bite .

                    Hemostasis or haemostasis is a process which causes bleeding to stop , meaning to keep blood within a damaged blood vessel ( the opposite of hemostasis is hemorrhage ) . It is the first stage of wound healing . This involves coagulation , blood changing from a liquid to a gel . Intact blood vessels are central to moderating blood 's tendency to form clots . The endothelial cells of intact vessels prevent blood clotting with a heparin - like molecule and thrombomodulin and prevent platelet aggregation with nitric oxide and prostacyclin . When endothelial injury occurs , the endothelial cells stop secretion of coagulation and aggregation inhibitors and instead secrete von Willebrand factor which initiate the maintenance of hemostasis after injury . Hemostasis has three major steps : 1 ) vasoconstriction , 2 ) temporary blockage of a break by a platelet plug , and 3 ) blood coagulation , or formation of a fibrin clot . These processes seal the hole until tissues are repaired .

                    Code talkers are people in the 20th century who used obscure languages as a means of secret communication during wartime . The term is now usually associated with the United States service members during the world wars who used their knowledge of Native American languages as a basis to transmit coded messages . In particular , there were approximately 400 -- 500 Native Americans in the United States Marine Corps whose primary job was the transmission of secret tactical messages . Code talkers transmitted these messages over military telephone or radio communications nets using formal or informally developed codes built upon their native languages . Their service improved the speed of encryption of communications at both ends in front line operations during World War II .

                    In traditional Western notation , the scale used for a composition is usually indicated by a key signature at the beginning to designate the pitches that make up that scale . As the music progresses , the pitches used may change and introduce a different scale . Music can be transposed from one scale to another for various purposes , often to accommodate the range of a vocalist . Such transposition raises or lowers the overall pitch range , but preserves the intervallic relationships of the original scale . For example , transposition from the key of C major to D major raises all pitches of the scale of C major equally by a whole tone . Since the interval relationships remain unchanged , transposition may be unnoticed by a listener , however other qualities may change noticeably because transposition changes the relationship of the overall pitch range compared to the range of the instruments or voices that perform the music . This often affects the music 's overall sound , as well as having technical implications for the performers .

                    Nepal is a secular state under the Interim Constitution , which was promulgated on January 15 , 2007 . The Interim Constitution provides for freedom to practice one 's religion . The Interim Constitution also specifically denies the right to convert another person . The now - defunct constitution of 1990 , which was in effect until January 15 , 2007 , described the country as a `` Hindu Kingdom , '' although it did not establish Hinduism as the state religion . The Government generally did not interfere with the practice of other religious groups , and religious tolerance was broadly observed ; however , there were some restrictions .

                    In humans , a diurnal variation has been observed dependent on the periods of rest and activity , lowest at 11 p.m. to 3 a.m. and peaking at 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monkeys also have a well - marked and regular diurnal variation of body temperature that follows periods of rest and activity , and is not dependent on the incidence of day and night ; nocturnal monkeys reach their highest body temperature at night and lowest during the day . Sutherland Simpson and J.J. Galbraith observed that all nocturnal animals and birds -- whose periods of rest and activity are naturally reversed through habit and not from outside interference -- experience their highest temperature during the natural period of activity ( night ) and lowest during the period of rest ( day ) . Those diurnal temperatures can be reversed by reversing their daily routine .

                    Parietal cells ( also known as oxyntic or delomorphous cells ) , are the epithelial cells that secrete hydrochloric acid ( HCl ) and intrinsic factor . These cells are located in the gastric glands found in the lining of the fundus and in the body of the stomach . They contain an extensive secretory network ( called canaliculi ) from which the HCl is secreted by active transport into the stomach . The enzyme hydrogen potassium ATPase ( H / K ATPase ) is unique to the parietal cells and transports the H against a concentration gradient of about 3 million to 1 , which is the steepest ion gradient formed in the human body . Parietal cells are primarily regulated via histamine , acetylcholine and gastrin signaling from both central and local modulators ( see ' Regulation ' ) .

                    Upon its release on December 19 , 1997 , Titanic achieved critical and commercial success . Nominated for 14 Academy Awards , it tied All About Eve ( 1950 ) for the most Oscar nominations , and won 11 , including the awards for Best Picture and Best Director , tying Ben Hur ( 1959 ) for the most Oscars won by a single film . With an initial worldwide gross of over $1.84 billion , Titanic was the first film to reach the billion - dollar mark . It remained the highest - grossing film of all time until Cameron 's Avatar surpassed it in 2010 . A 3D version of Titanic , released on April 4 , 2012 to commemorate the centennial of the sinking , earned it an additional $343.6 million worldwide , pushing the film 's worldwide total to $2.18 billion and making it the second film to gross more than $2 billion worldwide ( after Avatar ) . In 2017 , the film was re-released for its 20th anniversary and was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry .

                    During the Roman Republic the citizens would elect almost all officeholders annually .

However , Roman elections continued at the local , municipal level .

                    Blood alcohol concentration is usually expressed as a percentage of ethanol in the blood in units of mass of alcohol per volume of blood or mass of alcohol per mass of blood , depending on the country . For instance , in North America a BAC of 0.1 ( 0.1 % or one tenth of one percent ) means that there are 0.10 g of alcohol for every 100 mL of blood .

                    One unknown is how the Romans kept track of who was eligible to vote . Debates over the franchise were frequent , and differentiating voters from non-voters must have been done . One possibility is that as voters gathered as a tribe the members would be well known enough to each other that an outsider could be spotted , but as populations grew this would have been difficult . Historians have proposed that a central voters list was kept or that citizens were given some form of voter identification , but no sources or archaeological evidence survives for either .

                    Checks and balances is the principle that each of the Branches has the power to limit or check the other two and this creates a balance between the three separate powers of the state , this principle induces that the ambitions of one branch prevent that one of the other branches become supreme , and thus be eternally confronting each other and in that process leaving the people free from government abuses . Checks and Balances are designed to maintain the system of separation of powers keeping each branch in its place . This is based on the idea that it is not enough to separate the powers and guarantee their independence but to give the various branches the constitutional means to defend their own legitimate powers from the encroachments of the other branches . They guarantee that the powers of the State have the same weight ( co-equal ) , that is , to be balanced , so that they can limit each other , avoiding the abuse of state power . the origin of checks and balances , like separation of powers itself , is specifically credited to Montesquieu in the Enlightenment ( in The Spirit of the Laws , 1748 ) , under this influence was implemented in 1787 in the Constitution of the United States .

                    In Greek mythology , Icarus ( the Latin spelling , conventionally adopted in English ; Ancient Greek : Ἴκαρος , Íkaros , Etruscan : Vikare ) is the son of the master craftsman Daedalus , the creator of the Labyrinth . Often depicted in art , Icarus and his father attempt to escape from Crete by means of wings that his father constructed from feathers and wax . Icarus ' father warns him first of complacency and then of hubris , asking that he fly neither too low nor too high , so the sea 's dampness would not clog his wings or the sun 's heat melt them . Icarus ignored his father 's instructions not to fly too close to the sun ; when the wax in his wings melted he tumbled out of the sky and fell into the sea where he drowned .

                    `` Rapper 's Delight '' is a 1979 hip hop track by the Sugarhill Gang and produced by Sylvia Robinson . While it was not the first single to include rapping , `` Rapper 's Delight '' is credited for introducing hip hop music to a wide audience . It was a prototype for various types of rap music , incorporating themes such as boasting , dance , honesty and sex , with the charisma and enthusiasm of James Brown . The track also used samples from Chic 's `` Good Times '' , resulting in band members Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards suing Sugar Hill Records for copyright infringement ; a settlement was reached that gave the two songwriter credits .

Steam is invisible ; however , `` steam '' often refers to wet steam , the visible mist or aerosol of water droplets formed as this water vapour condenses . At lower pressures , such as in the upper atmosphere or at the top of high mountains , water boils at a lower temperature than the nominal 100 ° C ( 212 ° F ) at standard pressure .

                    The film 's elevation to the status of a beloved classic came decades after its initial release , when it became a television staple during Christmas season in the late 1970s . This came as a welcome surprise to Frank Capra and others involved with its production . `` It 's the damnedest thing I 've ever seen , '' Capra told The Wall Street Journal in 1984 . `` The film has a life of its own now , and I can look at it like I had nothing to do with it . I 'm like a parent whose kid grows up to be president . I 'm proud ... but it 's the kid who did the work . I did n't even think of it as a Christmas story when I first ran across it . I just liked the idea . '' In a 1946 interview , Capra described the film 's theme as `` the individual 's belief in himself '' and that he made it `` to combat a modern trend toward atheism '' .

                    The term prime minister in its French form , premier ministre , is attested in 17th Century sources referring to Cardinal Richelieu after he was named to head the royal council in 1624 . The title was however informal and used alongside the equally informal principal ministre d'État ( `` chief minister of the state '' ) more as a job description . After 1661 , Louis XIV and his descendants refused to allow one of their ministers to be more important than the others , so the term was not in use .

                    The term prime minister in the sense that we know it originated in the 18th century in the United Kingdom when members of parliament disparagingly used the title in reference to Sir Robert Walpole . During the whole of the 18th Century , Britain was involved in a prolonged conflict with France , periodically bursting into all - out war , and Britons took outspoken pride in their `` Liberty '' as contrasted to the `` Tyranny '' of French Absolute Monarchy ; therefore , being implicitly compared with Richelieu was no compliment to Walpole . Over time , however , the title became honorific and remains so in the 21st century .

                    Stephanie Judith Tanner ( portrayed by Jodie Sweetin ) is the witty , sarcastic middle child of Danny and Pam , the younger sister of D.J. , and the older sister of Michelle . Her mother died when she was five years old . Her catchphrases during the early seasons of the series include `` how rude ! , '' `` well , pin a rose on your nose ! '' and `` hot dog '' . She eventually evolved into something of a tomboy in seasons four and five . Stephanie has a habit of spying on D.J. 's life by reading her diary and eavesdropping on her telephone calls ( having been caught in the act several times ) , and is generally the most athletic and nosiest of the Tanner girls . Her best friends in school are Gia Mahan and Mickey , whom she meets in season seven ( the former is the only one who appears through to season eight ) . Of the three sisters , Stephanie has dealt with the toughest issues , such as peer pressure into smoking ( in season seven 's `` Fast Friends '' ) , `` make - out '' parties ( in season eight 's `` Making Out is Hard to Do '' ) , joyriding ( in season eight 's `` Stephanie 's Wild Ride '' ) , and uncovering a classmate 's child abuse ( in season six 's `` Silence is Not Golden '' ) , as well as the death of her mother when she was only five . In her early years , she is very sentimental about Mr. Bear , a stuffed animal that her mother gave to her after Michelle was born ( this was the focal point of the season two episode `` Goodbye Mr. Bear '' ) . She and Jesse are the most abrasive when it comes to how they feel about Kimmy Gibbler .

                    `` The New Colossus '' is a sonnet that American poet Emma Lazarus ( 1849 -- 1887 ) wrote in 1883 to raise money for the construction of the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty . In 1903 , the poem was engraved on a bronze plaque and mounted inside the pedestal 's lower level .

                    +

                    `` The New Colossus '' was the first entry read at the exhibit 's opening on November 2 , 1883 , and remained associated with the exhibit through a published catalog until the exhibit closed after the pedestal was fully funded in August 1885 , but was forgotten and played no role at the opening of the statue in 1886 . It was , however , published in Joseph Pulitzer 's New York World as well as The New York Times during this time period . In 1901 , Lazarus 's friend Georgina Schuyler began an effort to memorialize Lazarus and her poem , which succeeded in 1903 when a plaque bearing the text of the poem was put on the inner wall of the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty .

                    In 1953 , the United States Committee for UNICEF , now called the U.S. Fund for UNICEF , started actively promoting the program . By the 1960s , the concept had expanded throughout the United States , with small orange collection boxes distributed to millions of trick - or - treaters . When UNICEF won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1965 , U.S. President Lyndon B. Johnson said in his congratulatory letter : `` Your UNICEF Trick or Treat Day has helped turn a holiday too often marred by youthful vandalism into a program of basic training in world citizenship . '' In 1967 , Johnson declared Halloween , October 31 , to be ' UNICEF Day ' in the United States ; by 1969 , 3.5 million American children were trick - or - treating for donations . Children ( and adults ) in the U.S. have collected more than US $ 175 million for Trick - or - Treat for UNICEF . Donations to Trick - or - Treat for UNICEF support UNICEF 's global programing , but in 2005 , half of the proceeds were targeted to a domestic cause , aiding victims of Hurricane Katrina . In 2008 , the U.S. Fund for UNICEF introduced mobile phone text message donations as well as a MySpace and Facebook page . In 2014 , the U.S. Fund for UNICEF partnered with Crowdrise to expand the campaign 's online presence , allowing participants to create personal fundraising web pages in addition to traditional door - to - door trick - or - treating .

                    An autocracy is a system of government in which supreme power ( social and political ) is concentrated in the hands of one person , whose decisions are subject to neither external legal restraints nor regularized mechanisms of popular control ( except perhaps for the implicit threat of a coup d'état or mass insurrection ) . Absolute monarchy ( such as Saudi Arabia , the United Arab Emirates , Oman , Brunei and Swaziland ) and dictatorships ( such as North Korea ) are the main modern day forms of autocracy .

                    There was one vice-presidential debate between Congresswoman Ferraro and Vice President George H.W. Bush . Held on October 11 , the result was proclaimed mostly even by the press and historians ; women voters tended to think Ferraro had won , while men , Bush . At it , Ferraro criticized Reagan 's initial refusal to support an extension to the Voting Rights Act . Her experience was questioned at the debate and she was asked how her three terms in Congress stacked up with Bush 's extensive government experience . To one Bush statement she said , `` Let me just say first of all , that I almost resent , Vice President Bush , your patronizing attitude that you have to teach me about foreign policy . '' She strongly defended her position on abortion , which earned her applause and a respectful reply from her opponent . In the days leading up to the debate , Second Lady of the United States Barbara Bush had publicly referred to Ferraro as `` that four - million - dollar -- I ca n't say it , but it rhymes with ' rich ' . '' Barbara Bush soon apologized , saying she had not meant to infer Ferraro was `` a witch '' . Peter Teeley , Vice President Bush 's press secretary , had dispensed with rhymes as he said of Ferraro just prior to the debate , `` She 's too bitchy . She 's very arrogant . Humility is n't one of her strong points and I think that comes through . '' Teeley declined to apologize for the remark , saying it had no sexist implications and the Ferraro campaign was being `` hypersensitive '' in complaining about it .

                    Section 1 is a vesting clause that bestows federal legislative power exclusively to Congress . Similar clauses are found in Articles II and III . The former confers executive power upon the President alone , and the latter grants judicial power solely to the federal judiciary . These three articles create a separation of powers among the three branches of the federal government . This separation of powers , by which each department may exercise only its own constitutional powers and no others , is fundamental to the idea of a limited government accountable to the people .

                    • Karen Gillan portrays Nebula in the 2014 live - action film Guardians of the Galaxy . She is portrayed as an adopted daughter of Thanos , and she is augmented and converted into a cyborg ; at least her arms are completely mechanical , as she is shown making repairs to circuits in her forearm . Despite her familial ties to Thanos , Nebula allies with Ronan the Accuser when Ronan steals an Infinity Stone to destroy Xandar and later use against Thanos only to be defeated in combat by Gamora . When Gamora offers to save her , Nebula rejects Gamora 's help and severs her trapped mechanical left hand so that she can steal a ship and escape .
                    • Gillan reprises the role in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 , released in May 2017 . In the film , the Guardians retrieve the arrested Nebula from the Sovereign race , as she was apprehended after trying to steal their batteries . After the Guardians crash - land the ship on a nearby planet due to the Sovereign 's ambush ( as Rocket was caught stealing the batteries ) , Rocket and Baby Groot are tasked with looking over Nebula while the rest are taken by Ego to his planet . She assists the Ravagers with a mutiny against Yondu which results in her freedom and Yondu , Rocket , and Groot 's capture . Nebula convinces the Ravagers to spare the three due to the many bounties on their heads , of which Nebula wants a 10 % cut . She leaves using one of their ships to track down and kill Gamora on Ego , as the torture she received from Thanos and her cybernetic body parts were a result of Gamora constantly defeating her when they were children . She arrives at Ego 's planet and tries to kill Gamora , only stopping when she finally bests her sister in combat . Her desire to kill Gamora abated , the pair reach an uneasy alliance , after which they discover caverns filled with the skeletal remains of Ego 's many children . She joins the Guardians in combating Ego to defend the universe from his takeover . In the process she rescues Gamora from death and the two reconcile over their shared past trauma . Despite Gamora offering her a chance to stay with the Guardians , Nebula chooses to set out alone in her quest to kill Thanos .
                    • The character will appear in both Avengers : Infinity War and its untitled sequel , again portrayed by Gillan .

                    The halo effect is a type of immediate judgement discrepancy , or cognitive bias , where a person making an initial assessment of another person , place , or thing will assume ambiguous information based upon concrete information . A simplified example of the halo effect is when an individual noticing that the person in the photograph is attractive , well groomed , and properly attired , assumes , using a mental heuristic , that the person in the photograph is a good person based upon the rules of that individual 's social concept . This constant error in judgment is reflective of the individual 's preferences , prejudices , ideology , aspirations , and social perception . The halo effect is an evaluation by an individual and can affect the perception of a decision , action , idea , business , person , group , entity , or other whenever concrete data is generalized or influences ambiguous information .

Sandford , 60 U.S. ( 19 How . ) 393 ( 1857 ) , also known as the Dred Scott case , was a landmark decision by the United States Supreme Court on US labor law and constitutional law .

                    The tradition of gift - giving is an old one , but it became associated with Christmas more recently . It is a relic of a pagan custom , namely , the winter solstice which in Europe occurs in December . This was celebrated in ancient Rome with gift - giving during the Saturnalia holiday , which took place that month . As Christianity became increasingly widespread in the Roman lands , the custom of gift - giving continued . Around the year 336 AD the date of December 25 appears to have become established as the day of Jesus 's birth , and the tradition of gift - giving was reinterpreted and tied to the story of three Magi giving gifts to baby Jesus ; together with another story , that of Santa Claus based on the historical figure of Saint Nicholas , a fourth - century Greek bishop and gift - giver , it slowly became a part of Christmas celebrations .

                    Interphase is the phase of the cell cycle in which a typical cell spends most of its life . During this phase , the cell copies its DNA in preparation for mitosis . Interphase is the ' daily living ' or metabolic phase of the cell , in which the cell obtains nutrients and metabolizes them , grows , reads its DNA , and conducts other `` normal '' cell functions . The majority of eukaryotic cells spend most of their time in interphase . This phase was formerly called the resting phase . However , interphase does not describe a cell that is merely resting ; rather , the cell is living , and preparing for later cell division , so the name was changed . A common misconception is that interphase is the first stage of mitosis . However , since mitosis is the division of the nucleus , prophase is actually the first stage .

                    The Tower of London , officially Her Majesty 's Royal Palace and Fortress of the Tower of London , is a historic castle located on the north bank of the River Thames in central London . It lies within the London Borough of Tower Hamlets , separated from the eastern edge of the square mile of the City of London by the open space known as Tower Hill . It was founded towards the end of 1066 as part of the Norman Conquest of England . The White Tower , which gives the entire castle its name , was built by William the Conqueror in 1078 and was a resented symbol of oppression , inflicted upon London by the new ruling elite . The castle was used as a prison from 1100 ( Ranulf Flambard ) until 1952 ( Kray twins ) , although that was not its primary purpose . A grand palace early in its history , it served as a royal residence . As a whole , the Tower is a complex of several buildings set within two concentric rings of defensive walls and a moat . There were several phases of expansion , mainly under Kings Richard I , Henry III , and Edward I in the 12th and 13th centuries . The general layout established by the late 13th century remains despite later activity on the site .

                    Cellular respiration ( both aerobic and anaerobic ) utilizes highly reduced chemical compounds such as NADH and FADH2 ( for example produced during glycolysis and the citric acid cycle ) to establish an electrochemical gradient ( often a proton gradient ) across a membrane , resulting in an electrical potential or ion concentration difference across the membrane . The reduced chemical compounds are oxidized by a series of respiratory integral membrane proteins with sequentially increasing reduction potentials with the final electron acceptor being oxygen ( in aerobic respiration ) or another chemical substance ( in anaerobic respiration ) . A proton motive force drives protons down the gradient ( across the membrane ) through the proton channel of ATP synthase . The resulting current drives ATP synthesis from ADP and inorganic phosphate .

                    Victory gardens , also called war gardens or food gardens for defense , were vegetable , fruit , and herb gardens planted at private residences and public parks in the United States , United Kingdom , Canada , Australia and Germany during World War I and World War II . George Washington Carver wrote an agricultural tract and promoted the idea of what he called a `` Victory Garden '' . They were used along with Rationing Stamps and Cards to reduce pressure on the public food supply . Besides indirectly aiding the war effort , these gardens were also considered a civil `` morale booster '' in that gardeners could feel empowered by their contribution of labor and rewarded by the produce grown . This made victory gardens a part of daily life on the home front .

                    When Yellowstone National Park was created in 1872 , gray wolf ( Canis lupus ) populations were already in decline in Montana , Wyoming and Idaho . The creation of the national park did not provide protection for wolves or other predators , and government predator control programs in the first decades of the 1900s essentially helped eliminate the gray wolf from Yellowstone . The last wolves were killed in Yellowstone in 1926 . After that time , sporadic reports of wolves still occurred , but scientists confirmed that sustainable wolf populations had been extirpated and were absent from Yellowstone during the mid-1900s .

                    During the reign of King Beorhtric of Wessex ( 786 -- 802 ) three ships of `` Northmen '' landed at Portland Bay in Dorset . The local reeve mistook the Vikings for merchants and directed them to the nearby royal estate , but the visitors killed him and his men . The earliest recorded planned Viking raid , on 6 January 793 , targeted the monastery on the island of Lindisfarne , off the north - east coast of Northumbria . According to the 12th - century Anglo - Norman chronicler Symeon of Durham , the raiders killed the resident monks or threw them into the sea to drown or carried them away as slaves -- along with some of the church treasures . In 875 , after enduring eight decades of repeated Viking raids , the monks fled Lindisfarne , carrying the relics of Saint Cuthbert with them .

                    It is generally accepted that sustainable gray wolf packs had been extirpated from Yellowstone National Park by 1926 , although the National Park Service maintained its policies of predator control in the park until 1933 . However , a 1975 -- 77 National Park Service sponsored study revealed that during the period 1927 to 1977 , there were several hundred probable sightings of wolves in the park . Between 1977 and the re-introduction in 1995 , there were additional reliable sightings of wolves in the park , most believed to be singles or pairs transiting the region .

                    In April 1775 , Paul Revere told three Boston patriots to hang two lanterns in the steeple . These men were the church sexton Robert Newman and Captain John Pulling -- the two of whom historian David Hackett Fischer suggests each carried one lantern up to the steeple -- as well as Thomas Bernard , who stood watch for British troops outside the church . The lanterns were displayed to send a warning to Charlestown patriots across the Charles River about the movements of the British Army . Revere and William Dawes would later deliver the same message to Lexington themselves , but this lantern method was a fast way to inform the back - up riders in Charlestown about the movements of the British ; these back - up riders planned to deliver the warning message to Lexington and Concord in case Revere and Dawes were arrested on the way .

                    Hellenic polytheists worship the ancient Greek Gods , including the Olympians , nature divinities , underworld deities ( chthonic gods ) and heroes . Both physical and spiritual ancestors are honored . It is primarily a devotional or votive religion , based on the exchange of gifts ( offerings ) for the gods ' blessings . The ethical convictions of modern Hellenic polytheists are often inspired by ancient Greek virtues such as reciprocity , hospitality , self - control and moderation . The Delphic maxims , Tenets of Solon , the Golden Verses of Pythagoras , or even Aristotle 's Ethics each function as complete moral codes that a Hellenic Polytheist may observe . Key to most ethical systems is the idea of kharis ( or `` charis '' , grace ) , to establish reciprocity between humanity and the gods , between individuals , and among community members . Another key value in Hellenic Polytheism is eusebeia , often translated as piety . This implies a commitment to the worship of the Hellenic gods and action to back this up .

                    In the United States , the Hellenic polytheist organization Hellenion also identifies its practices as `` Hellenic Pagan Reconstructionism '' and emphasizes historical accuracy in its mission statement . The group uses the term `` Hellenismos '' ( Ἑλληνισμός , Hellēnismós ) to describe the religion . Hellenion does not provide official membership numbers to the public , but an unofficial estimate of 43 members can be determined for 2007 , though this number can only give the roughest approximation , as Hellenion offers hardship waivers to those who can not afford the typical membership fees . In early 2010 , the organization reported 1 demos ( fully chartered local congregation ) and 6 proto - demoi ( start - up congregations not fully chartered with less than 3 members ) established , which offer rituals and other events for members and frequently for the public as well . Two of the six proto - demoi can not be independently verified to exist . Hellenion offers legal clergy training , basic adult religious education classes , and other educational / training courses for its members .

                    There are no official naming practices for this religion , but there does seem to be an informal naming convention , based on academically accepted descriptive definitions , adhered to by groups and most individual believers . Hellenism is the most common term , used chiefly as an identifier for the modern polytheistic religion by its adherents today but it can also refer to the ancient Greek religion and culture . The term originally stems from a systematization and revival of Greek religion done by the Roman Emperor Julian . Julian used the term to describe traditional religion of the Greeks ( the word can also have other unrelated meanings in modern Greek ) . Additionally , subgroups use a variety of names to distinguish branches focusing on specific schools of thought , or modern traditions focusing on the public practices of individual city - states . These subgroups can be described as denominations . Hellenic religion , and Hellenic polytheism can be said to be used interchangeably to refer to the religion , and are synonymous . The phrase Hellenic Polytheistic Reconstructionism refers more to the methodology used by some practitioners to revive a version of the religion , than the religion itself . Not all Hellenic Polytheists are reconstructionists . Dodekatheism and Olympianism are other names , though less commonly used .

                  • Professor Eobard Thawne is introduced on The Flash as a scientist from the future who duplicated the reaction that gave Barry Allen / The Flash his powers and became the hero 's archenemy , the Reverse - Flash . Eobard travelled back in time to the year 2000 to kill his nemesis as a child . When the 2024 Flash intervened , the Reverse - Flash murdered Barry 's mother and framed his father instead , thus erasing this Flash from existence while unintentionally severing his own connection to the Speed Force , leaving him stranded in the 21st Century . Knowing that Dr. Harrison Wells would be responsible for creating metahumans in 2020 , Eobard killed the scientist and assumed his identity . He then founded S.T.A.R. Labs and created a particle accelerator to turn Barry into the Flash and regain his own link to the Speed Force . Faking paralysis , `` Dr. Wells '' pushes Barry to run faster in hopes of using the latter 's pure Speed Force connection to travel back to his time . After Eobard 's secret is discovered , he is captured by the Flash , the Arrow , and Firestorm . Eobard then offers Barry a chance to travel back in time to save his mother in exchange for a time sphere to return to the future , but Barry ultimately chooses not to do so and returns to destroy Eobard 's machine . As the Reverse - Flash prepares to kill the Flash , his ancestor Detective Eddie Thawne kills himself and seemingly erases Eobard from existence . A year later , Barry temporarily creates a new reality and restores a time remnant of Eobard to the timeline in the process .

                    Triglycerides are emulsified by bile and hydrolyzed by the enzyme lipase , resulting in a mixture of fatty acids , di - and monoglycerides . These then pass from the intestinal lumen into the enterocyte , where they are re-esterified to form triacylglycerol . The triacylglycerol is then combined with phospholipids , cholesterol ester , and apolipoprotein B48 to form chylomicrons . These chylomicrons then pass into the lacteals , forming a milky substance known as chyle . The lacteals merge to form larger lymphatic vessels that transport the chyle to the thoracic duct where it is emptied into the bloodstream at the subclavian vein .

                    The cella of the Parthenon housed the chryselephantine statue of Athena Parthenos sculpted by Phidias and dedicated in 439 or 438 BC . The appearance of this is known from other images . The decorative stonework was originally highly coloured . The temple was dedicated to Athena at that time , though construction continued until almost the beginning of the Peloponnesian War in 432 . By the year 438 , the sculptural decoration of the Doric metopes on the frieze above the exterior colonnade , and of the Ionic frieze around the upper portion of the walls of the cella , had been completed . In the opisthodomus ( the back room of the cella ) were stored the monetary contributions of the Delian League , of which Athens was the leading member .

                    Lilium longiflorum is known as the Easter lily because in Christianity , it is a symbol of the resurrection of Christ , which is celebrated during Eastertide . The `` lily has always been highly regarded in the Church '' , as Jesus Himself referenced the flower , saying `` Consider the lilies how they grow : they toil not , they spin not ; and yet I say unto you , that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these '' ( Luke 12 : 27 ) . Moreover , according to pious legend , `` after Jesus ' death and resurrection , some of these beautiful flowers were found growing in the Garden of Gethsemane , where Jesus went to pray the night before His crucifixion . Legend has it that these flowers sprung up where drops of Jesus ' sweat fell as he prayed '' . In many Christian churches , the chancel is adorned with Easter lilies throughout the Paschal season . A poem of the early 1900s titled Easter Lilies by S.R. Allen , delineates this custom :

                    The Mystery Spot is a gravity hill , tilt - induced visual illusion . The illusion experienced by visitors results from the oddly tilted environment as well as standing on a tilted floor . Inside the tilted room of the Mystery Spot , misperceptions of the height and orientation of objects occur . Even when people are standing outside on a level ground , the slant of the building in the background causes misperceptions as humans judge the height of people using the slant of the roof rather than the true horizon .

                    Since its creation in the fifth century , Sussex has been subject to periodic reform of its local governance . After the Reform Act of 1832 Sussex was divided into the eastern division and the western division , these divisions were coterminous with the two archdeaconries of Chichester and Lewes. : ) In 1889 , following the Local Government Act 1888 , using those same boundaries , Sussex was divided into two administrative counties , East Sussex and West Sussex together with three self - governing county boroughs , Brighton , Eastbourne and Hastings . In 1974 , under the Local Government Act 1972 , the county boundaries were revised with the mid-Sussex area of East Grinstead , Haywards Heath , Burgess Hill and Hassocks being transferred from East Sussex into West Sussex along with Crawley and the Gatwick area that was formerly part of Surrey . The county boroughs were returned to the control of the two county councils but in 1997 the towns of Brighton and Hove were amalgamated as a unitary local authority and in 2000 , Brighton and Hove was given City status . Although it is administered as the two ceremonial counties of East and West Sussex , there continue to be a range of organisations that operate throughout the ancient borders of Sussex such as the Diocese of Chichester , Sussex Police , the Sussex Archaeological Society the Sussex History Society and the Sussex Wildlife Trust .

                    In New Zealand , agriculture is the largest sector of the tradable economy , contributing about two - thirds of exported goods in 2006 - 7 . For the year ended March 2002 , agricultural exports were valued at over $14.8 billion . New Zealand is unique in being the only developed country to be totally exposed to the international markets since subsidies , tax concessions and price supports for the agricultural sector were removed in the 1980s . However , as of 2017 , the New Zealand Government still provides state investment in infrastructure which supports agriculture .

                    Urbanisation began in 1902 , when a railroad linking Los Angeles and Salt Lake City attracted many farmers to the area , and fresh water was piped into the settlement . In 1911 , the city was incorporated as part of Clark County . In 1931 work started on the Boulder Dam ( now the Hoover Dam ) , bringing a huge influx of young male workers , for whom theatres and casinos were built , largely by the Mafia . Electricity from the dam also enabled the building of many new hotels along the Strip . The arrival of Howard Hughes in 1966 did much to offset mob influence , and helped turn Las Vegas into more of a family tourist centre , now classified as a Megaresort .

                    The highest paid player in Major League Baseball ( MLB ) from the 2013 season is New York Yankees ' third baseman Alex Rodriguez with an annual salary of $29,000,000 , $4 million higher than the second - highest paid player , Cliff Lee . MLB does not have a hard salary cap , instead employing a luxury tax which applies to teams whose total payroll exceeds certain set thresholds for a given season . Free agency did not exist in MLB prior to the end of the reserve clause in the 1970s , allowing owners before that time to wholly dictate the terms of player negotiations and resulting in significantly lower salaries . Babe Ruth , widely regarded as one of the greatest baseball players ever , earned an estimated $910,696 ( $14,341,967 inflation - adjusted from 1931 dollars ) over his entire playing career . When asked whether he thought he deserved to earn $80,000 a year ( $1,146,932 inflation - adjusted ) , while the president , Herbert Hoover , had a $75,000 salary , Ruth famously remarked , `` What the hell has Hoover got to do with it ? Besides , I had a better year than he did . ''

                    The 2011 earthquake off the Pacific coast of Tōhoku ( 東北 地方 太平洋 沖 地震 , Tōhoku - chihō Taiheiyō Oki Jishin ) was a magnitude 9.0 -- 9.1 ( M ) undersea megathrust earthquake off the coast of Japan that occurred at 14 : 46 JST ( 05 : 46 UTC ) on Friday 11 March 2011 , with the epicentre approximately 70 kilometres ( 43 mi ) east of the Oshika Peninsula of Tōhoku and the hypocenter at an underwater depth of approximately 29 km ( 18 mi ) . The earthquake is often referred to in Japan as the Great East Japan Earthquake ( 東日本 大震災 , Higashi nihon daishinsai ) and is also known as the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake , and the 3.11 earthquake . It was the most powerful earthquake ever recorded in Japan , and the fourth most powerful earthquake in the world since modern record - keeping began in 1900 . The earthquake triggered powerful tsunami waves that reached heights of up to 40.5 metres ( 133 ft ) in Miyako in Tōhoku 's Iwate Prefecture , and which , in the Sendai area , traveled up to 10 km ( 6 mi ) inland . The earthquake moved Honshu ( the main island of Japan ) 2.4 m ( 8 ft ) east , shifted the Earth on its axis by estimates of between 10 cm ( 4 in ) and 25 cm ( 10 in ) , increased earth 's rotational speed by 1.8 μs per day , and generated infrasound waves detected in perturbations of the low - orbiting GOCE satellite . Initially , the earthquake caused sinking of part of Honshu 's Pacific coast by up to roughly a metre , but after about three years , the coast rose back and kept on rising to exceed the original height of the coast .

                    In the United States , there is no federal law regulating the practice of tattooing . However , all 50 states and the District of Columbia have statutory laws requiring a person receiving a tattoo be 18 years of age or older . This is partially based on the legal principle that a minor can not enter into a legal contract or otherwise render informed consent for a procedure . Most states permit a person under the age of 18 to receive a tattoo with permission of a parent or guardian , but some states outright prohibit tattooing under a certain age regardless of permission , with the exception of medical necessity ( such as markings placed for radiation therapy ) .

                    `` Lives '' serve as a mechanism to throttle how often new games can be started , and also provide an in - app revenue opportunity for the developer . Each time a player starts a game by pressing the New Game button , or accepts a Facebook friend 's request to play against them , they are charged a Life . A player can have as many lives as they wish , and as they spend lives , the game will automatically replenish one life every hour , provided they are below 5 lives , until the player returns to a full charge of 5 lives . A heart icon on the app 's main screen shows how many lives the player currently has , and if they have less than 5 , a timer will also display that ticks down in real time to show how long until the next replenishment . If the player runs out of lives , they must wait for replenishment before they can start any new games or approve a new game started against them by a Facebook friend . A player who does not want to wait can either request lives from their Facebook friends , or can buy lives through an in - app purchase .

                    Realizing that gambling would be profitable for local business , the Nevada state legislature legalized gambling at the local level in 1931 . Las Vegas , with a small but already well - established illegal gambling industry , was poised to begin its rise as the gaming capital of the world . The county issued the first gambling license in 1931 to the Northern Club , and soon other casinos were licensed on Fremont Street like the Las Vegas Club and the Apache Hotel . Fremont Street became the first paved street in Las Vegas and received the city 's first traffic light in 1931 .

                    The Committee on Rules , or ( more commonly ) Rules Committee , is a committee of the United States House of Representatives . Rather than being responsible for a specific area of policy , as most other committees are , it is in charge of determining under what rule other bills will come to the floor . As such , it is one of the most powerful committees and is often described as `` an arm of the leadership '' and as the `` traffic cop of Congress . '' A rule is a simple resolution of the House of Representatives , usually reported by the Committee on Rules , to permit the immediate consideration of a legislative measure , notwithstanding the usual order of business , and to prescribe conditions for its debate and amendment .

                    The cauda equina ( Latin for `` horse 's tail '' ) is a bundle of spinal nerves and spinal nerve rootlets , consisting of the second through fifth lumbar nerve pairs , the first through fifth sacral nerve pairs , and the coccygeal nerve , all of which arise from the lumbar enlargement and the conus medullaris of the spinal cord . The cauda equina occupies the lumbar cistern , a subarachnoid space inferior to the conus medullaris . The nerves that compose the cauda equina innervate the pelvic organs and lower limbs to include motor innervation of the hips , knees , ankles , feet , internal anal sphincter and external anal sphincter . In addition , the cauda equina extends to sensory innervation of the perineum and , partially , parasympathetic innervation of the bladder .

                    The Guantanamo Bay detention camp is a United States military prison located within Guantanamo Bay Naval Base , also referred to as Guantánamo or GTMO ( / ˈɡɪtmoʊ / ) , which is on the coast of Guantánamo Bay in Cuba . Since the inmates have been detained indefinitely without trial and several detainees have alleged torture , the operations of this camp are considered to be a major breach of human rights by Amnesty International .

                    In humans , the spinal cord stops growing in infancy and the end of the spinal cord is about the level of the third lumbar vertebra , or L3 , at birth . Because the bones of the vertebral column continue to grow , by about 12 months of age , the end of the cord reaches its permanent position at the level of L1 or L2 ( closer to the head ) . However , due to normal anatomical variations , the final cord end position may occur anywhere from T12 twelfth thoracic vertebra ( T12 ) to L3 . Individual spinal nerve roots arise from the cord as they get closer to the head , but as the differential growth occurs , the top end of the nerve stays attached to the spinal cord while the lower end of the nerve exits the spinal column at its proper level . This results in a `` bundle '' - like structure of nerve fibers that extends caudally from the end of the spinal cord , gradually declining in number further down as individual pairs leave the spinal column .

                    Triple threat is the position when a player facing a defender receives a pass but has not dribbled yet . The offensive player 's feet are slightly wider than shoulder width and slightly on the balls of their feet , their knees flexed , with both hands on the basketball in front of them or almost resting on their thigh , presenting the defender with an opponent able to move in any direction . One foot is held as the pivot and the other slightly ahead . From this , the player can choose from three options : to jump - shoot , to dribble ( drive ) past the defender or to pass it to a teammate . There are also options to get the defender out of their defensive stance by using jab steps and pump fakes .

                    D.J. is typically the daughter who acts the most practical , often giving advice to her younger sisters , Michelle and Stephanie . Although she sometimes bickers with them , she cares for them deeply . As D.J. entered into middle school , she started to deal with more serious issues like puberty and dating . She has her first serious relationship with Steve Hale ( who was first introduced in the season five episode `` Sisters in Crime '' ) , who later becomes a real fixture in her life ( and a regular character beginning in season six ) when their characters return from a summer abroad in Spain . Their relationship lasts until they break up in the season seven episode `` Love on the Rocks , '' when they realize that the passion in their relationship is gone , but they agree to remain friends . D.J. has on - and - off relationships ( during the show 's final season ) with guitarist Viper ( a member of Jesse 's new band Hot Daddy and the Monkey Puppets ) and rich kid Nelson , but both relationships do not last ( the two end up vying for D.J. 's affections in the season eight episode `` D.J. 's Choice , '' only for D.J. to reject them both after their fighting gets to be too much for her to bear ) .

                      ATP hydrolysis is the reaction by which chemical energy that has been stored in the high - energy phosphoanhydride bonds in adenosine triphosphate ( ATP ) is released , for example in muscles , by producing work in the form of mechanical energy . The product is adenosine diphosphate ( ADP ) and an inorganic phosphate , orthophosphate ( P ) . ADP can be further hydrolyzed to give energy , adenosine monophosphate ( AMP ) , and another orthophosphate ( P ) . ATP hydrolysis is the final link between the energy derived from food or sunlight and useful work such as muscle contraction , the establishment of electrochemical gradients across membranes , and biosynthetic processes necessary to maintain life .

                      In genetics and developmental biology , somatic cell nuclear transfer ( SCNT ) is a laboratory strategy for creating a viable embryo from a body cell and an egg cell . The technique consists of taking an enucleated oocyte ( egg cell ) and implanting a donor nucleus from a somatic ( body ) cell . It is used in both therapeutic and reproductive cloning . Dolly the Sheep became famous for being the first successful case of the reproductive cloning of a mammal . `` Therapeutic cloning '' refers to the potential use of SCNT in regenerative medicine ; this approach has been championed as an answer to the many issues concerning embryonic stem cells ( ESC ) and the destruction of viable embryos for medical use , though questions remain on how homologous the two cell types truly are .

                      The visible part of the human nose is the protruding part of the face that bears the nostrils . The shape of the nose is determined by the ethmoid bone and the nasal septum , which consists mostly of cartilage and which separates the nostrils . On average the nose of a male is larger than that of a female .

                      This was the first common style of shark tooth , present in the plentiful cladodont teeth of the devonian , four hundred million years ago . Sharks with needle - like teeth commonly feed on small to medium - sized fish , sometimes including small sharks . These teeth are especially effective for such prey because they can easily grip their slippery and narrow bodies . Modern examples include the blue shark and bull sharks . These sharks specifically use their teeth to feed on small prey like squid , flounder , stingrays , and even hammerhead sharks .

                      In the midline of the nose , the septum is a composite ( osseo - cartilaginous ) structure that divides the nose into two ( 2 ) similar halves . The lateral nasal wall and the paranasal sinuses , the superior concha , the middle concha , and the inferior concha , form the corresponding passages , the superior meatus , the middle meatus , and the inferior meatus , on the lateral nasal wall . The superior meatus is the drainage area for the posterior ethmoid bone cells and the sphenoid sinus ; the middle meatus provides drainage for the anterior ethmoid sinuses and for the maxillary and frontal sinuses ; and the inferior meatus provides drainage for the nasolacrimal duct .

                      Like Jupiter and Saturn , Neptune 's atmosphere is composed primarily of hydrogen and helium , along with traces of hydrocarbons and possibly nitrogen , but it contains a higher proportion of `` ices '' such as water , ammonia , and methane . However , its interior , like that of Uranus , is primarily composed of ices and rock , which is why Uranus and Neptune are normally considered `` ice giants '' to emphasise this distinction . Traces of methane in the outermost regions in part account for the planet 's blue appearance .

                      Ai n't Living Long Like This is the debut studio album by American country music singer - songwriter Rodney Crowell , released in 1978 by Warner Bros. Records . It failed to enter the Top Country Albums chart . The songs , `` Elvira '' , `` Baby Better Start Turnin ' ' Em Down '' and `` ( Now and Then , There 's ) A Fool Such as I '' were released as singles but they all failed to chart within the top 40 . Despite this , Ai n't Living Long Like This is considered one Crowell 's best and most influential albums . Brett Hartenbach of Allmusic says it `` not only showcases his songwriting prowess , but also his ability to deliver a song , whether it 's one of his own or the work of another writer '' . Most of the songs on this album were later covered by other artists including The Oak Ridge Boys and Alan Jackson . When the album was re-released in 2002 the font on the cover was enlarged to make it more legible .

This class of equipment is now commonly referred to as a diving regulator or demand valve . The Aqua - Lung was invented in Paris during the winter of 1942 -- 1943 by two Frenchmen : the engineer Émile Gagnan and Naval Lieutenant ( `` lieutenant de vaisseau '' ) Jacques Cousteau . It allowed Cousteau and Gagnan to film and explore more easily underwater .

                      Vasoepididymostomy is often considered one of the most technically challenging operations in the field of urology . The procedure requires anastomosis of a single epididymal tubule ( luminal diameter . 15 -. 25 mm ) to the lumen of the vas deferens ( diameter . 3 -. 4 mm ) , and is reserved for patients with congenital or acquired epididymal obstruction , or patients who have failed previous attempts at surgical reconstruction of the vas deferens . This surgery attaches the vas deferens directly to the epididymis , the coiled tube on the back of each testicle where sperm matures . A vasectomy can cause blockages or a break in the vas deferens or the epididymis . This surgery is used when a vasovasostomy wo n't work because sperm flow is blocked . The vas deferens is connected to the epididymis above the point of blockage .

                      The helicopter quickly developed a nickname derived from its designation of HU - 1 , which came to be pronounced as `` Huey '' . The reference became so popular that Bell began casting the name on the helicopter 's anti-torque pedals . The official U.S. Army name was almost never used in practice . After September 1962 , the designation for all models was changed to UH - 1 under a unified Department of Defense ( DOD ) designation system , but the nickname remained .

                      The Gulf of Mexico formed approximately 300 million years ago as a result of plate tectonics . The Gulf of Mexico basin is roughly oval and is approximately 810 nautical miles ( 1,500 km ; 930 mi ) wide and floored by sedimentary rocks and recent sediments . It is connected to part of the Atlantic Ocean through the Florida Straits between the U.S. and Cuba , and with the Caribbean ( with which it forms the American Mediterranean Sea ) via the Yucatán Channel between Mexico and Cuba . With the narrow connection to the Atlantic , the Gulf experiences very small tidal ranges . The size of the Gulf basin is approximately 1.6 million km ( 615,000 sq mi ) . Almost half of the basin is shallow continental shelf waters . The basin contains a volume of roughly 2,500 quadrillion liters ( 550 quadrillion Imperial gallons , 660 quadrillion US gallons , 2.5 million km or 600,000 cu mi ) .

                      The Cold War was a state of geopolitical tension after World War II between powers in the Eastern Bloc ( the Soviet Union and its satellite states ) and powers in the Western Bloc ( the United States , its NATO allies and others ) . Historians do not fully agree on the dates , but a common timeframe is the period between 1947 , the year the Truman Doctrine , a U.S. foreign policy pledging to aid nations threatened by Soviet expansionism , was announced , and either 1989 , when communism fell in Eastern Europe , or 1991 , when the Soviet Union collapsed . The term `` cold '' is used because there was no large - scale fighting directly between the two sides , but they each supported major regional wars known as proxy wars .

                      The play is a three - act drama , which takes place on a single night in April 1912 , focusing on the prosperous upper middle - class Birling family , who live in a comfortable home in the fictional town of Brumley , `` an industrial city in the north Midlands '' . The family is visited by a man calling himself Inspector Goole , who questions the family about the suicide of a young working - class woman , Eva Smith ( also known as Daisy Renton ) . The family is interrogated and revealed to have been responsible for the young woman 's exploitation , abandonment and social ruin , effectively leading to her death . Long considered part of the repertory of classic `` drawing room '' theatre , the play has also been hailed as a scathing critique of the hypocrisies of Victorian / Edwardian English society and as an expression of Priestley 's socialist political principles . The play is studied in many schools in the UK as one of the prescribed texts for the English Literature GCSE ( General Certificate of Secondary Education ) examination .

                      The most recent pushback of the implementation date has inspired a mixed reaction from the healthcare community . Even though the deadline for ICD - 10 was pushed back repeatedly , CMS recommended that medical practices take several years to prepare for implementation of the new code set . The basic structure of the ICD - 10 - CM code is the following : Characters 1 -- 3 ( the category of disease ) ; 4 ( etiology of disease ) ; 5 ( body part affected ) ; 6 ( severity of illness ) ; and 7 ( placeholder for extension of the code to increase specificity ) . Not only must new software be installed and tested , but medical practices must provide training for physicians , staff members , and administrators . They will also need to develop new practice policies and guidelines , and update paperwork and forms . For convenience , practices may also create `` crosswalks '' that will convert their most frequently used ICD - 9 - CM codes to the ICD - 10 - CM equivalents .

It was first used by William Graham Sumner in an 1883 lecture in Brooklyn entitled The Forgotten Man ( published posthumously in 1918 ) to refer to the person compelled to pay for reformist programs ; however , since Franklin Roosevelt appropriated the phrase in a 1932 speech , it has more often been used to refer to those at the bottom of the economic government whom the state ( in Roosevelt 's view and in the general social humanitarian approach ) needed to help .

                      Eddie Van Halen , lead guitarist of hard rock band Van Halen , was asked to add a guitar solo . When initially contacted by Jones , Van Halen thought he was receiving a prank call . Having established that the call was genuine , Van Halen borrowed an amplifier from guitarist Allan Holdsworth and recorded his guitar solo free of any charge . `` I did it as a favor '' , the musician later said . `` I was a complete fool , according to the rest of the band , our manager and everyone else . I was not used . I knew what I was doing -- I do n't do something unless I want to do it . '' Van Halen recorded his contribution following Jones and Jackson arriving at the guitarist 's house with a `` skeleton version '' of the song . Fellow guitarist Steve Lukather recalled , `` Initially , we rocked it out as Eddie had played a good solo -- but Quincy thought it was too tough . So I had to reduce the distorted guitar sound and that is what was released . '' The song was among the last four completed for Thriller ; the others were `` Human Nature '' , `` P.Y.T. ( Pretty Young Thing ) '' and `` The Lady in My Life '' .

                      After withdrawing from Boston , Howe immediately began preparations to seize New York which was considered the ' hinge ' of the colonies . In late August , 22,000 men ( including 9,000 Hessians ) were rapidly landed on Long Island using flat bottomed boats , this would be the largest amphibious operation undertaken by the British army until the Normandy landings almost 200 years later . In the ensuing Battle of Long Island on August 27 , 1776 , the British outflanked the American positions , driving the Americans back to the Brooklyn Heights fortifications . General Howe not wishing to risk the lives of his men in a bloody frontal assault then began to lay siege works . The navy had failed to properly blockade the East river which left an escape route open for Washington 's army , which he fully exploited , managing a nighttime retreat through his unguarded rear to Manhattan Island . British forces then fought a series of actions to consolidate control of Manhattan Island , culminating in the Battle of Fort Washington which resulted in the capture of close to 3,000 Continental troops . Following the conquest of Manhattan , Howe ordered Charles Cornwallis to `` clear the rebel troops from New Jersey without a major engagement , and to do it quickly before the weather changed . '' Cornwallis ' force drove Washington 's army entirely from New Jersey and across the Delaware River . However , in the pre-dawn hours of December 26 , Washington crossed back into New Jersey and captured a garrison of Hessians at Trenton . Several days later , Washington outmaneuvered Cornwallis at Assunpink Creek and overwhelmed a British outpost at Princeton on January 3 , 1777 . Cornwallis rallied and again drove Washington away , however the defeats showed the British army had become too overstretched and Howe abandoned most of his outposts in New Jersey .

                      A simple example is the space between a wall mounted faucet and the sink rim ( this space is the air gap ) . Water can easily flow from the faucet into the sink , but there is no way that water can flow from the sink into the faucet without modifying the system . This arrangement will prevent any contaminants in the sink from flowing into the potable water system by siphonage and is the least expensive form of backflow prevention .

                      The 2010 eruptions of Eyjafjallajökull were volcanic events at Eyjafjallajökull in Iceland which , although relatively small for volcanic eruptions , caused enormous disruption to air travel across western and northern Europe over an initial period of six days in April 2010 . Additional localised disruption continued into May 2010 . The eruption was declared officially over in October 2010 , when snow on the glacier did not melt . From 14 -- 20 April , ash from the volcanic eruption covered large areas of Northern Europe . About 20 countries closed their airspace to commercial jet traffic and it affected approximately 10 million travellers .

                      World War I ( WWI or WW1 ) , also known as the First World War , the Great War , or the War to End All Wars , was a global war originating in Europe that lasted from 28 July 1914 to 11 November 1918 . More than 70 million military personnel , including 60 million Europeans , were mobilised in one of the largest wars in history . Over nine million combatants and seven million civilians died as a result of the war ( including the victims of a number of genocides ) , a casualty rate exacerbated by the belligerents ' technological and industrial sophistication , and the tactical stalemate caused by gruelling trench warfare . It was one of the deadliest conflicts in history , and paved the way for major political changes , including revolutions in many of the nations involved . Unresolved rivalries still extant at the end of the conflict contributed to the start of the Second World War only twenty - one years later .

                      A common use of the term `` air gap '' in home plumbing refers to a fixture that provides back - flow prevention for an installed dishwasher . This `` air gap '' is seen above the countertop as a small cylindrical fixture mounted parallel with the faucet . Below the countertop , the drain pipe of the dishwasher feeds the `` top '' of the air gap , and the `` bottom '' of the air gap is plumbed into the sink drain below the basket , or into a garbage disposal unit . When installed and maintained properly , the air gap works as described above , and prevents drain water from the sink from backing up into the dishwasher , possibly contaminating dishes . Water flowing from the fixture into the sink indicates a need for maintenance or repair .

                      There was an element naming controversy as to what the elements from 104 to 106 were to be called ; the IUPAC adopted unnilseptium ( symbol Uns ) as a temporary , systematic element name for this element . In 1994 a committee of IUPAC recommended that element 107 be named bohrium , not nielsbohrium , since there was no precedence for using a scientist 's complete name in the naming of an element . This was opposed by the discoverers as there was some concern that the name might be confused with boron and in particular the distinguishing of the names of their respective oxyanions , bohrate and borate . The matter was handed to the Danish branch of IUPAC which , despite this , voted in favour of the name bohrium , and thus the name bohrium for element 107 was recognized internationally in 1997 ; the names of the respective oxyanions of boron and bohrium remain unchanged despite their homophony .

Columbia Records released `` If I Were a Boy '' to US radio on October 8 , 2008 , as the album 's lead single alongside `` Single Ladies ( Put a Ring on It ) '' . The two songs showcased the contrast between Beyoncé 's personality and her aggressive onstage persona , Sasha Fierce .

                      Code talkers are people in the 20th century who used obscure languages as a means of secret communication during wartime . The term is now usually associated with the United States soldiers during the world wars who used their knowledge of Native American languages as a basis to transmit coded messages . In particular , there were approximately 400 -- 500 Native Americans in the United States Marine Corps whose primary job was the transmission of secret tactical messages . Code talkers transmitted these messages over military telephone or radio communications nets using formal or informally developed codes built upon their native languages . Their service improved the speed of encryption of communications at both ends in front line operations during World War II .

                      The distance covered by a vehicle ( for example as recorded by an odometer ) , person , animal , or object along a curved path from a point A to a point B should be distinguished from the straight - line distance from A to B. For example , whatever the distance covered during a round trip from A to B and back to A , the displacement is zero as start and end points coincide . In general the straight - line distance does not equal distance travelled , except for journeys in a straight line .

                      Tyrion Lannister ( season 1 -- present ) portrayed by Peter Dinklage . Nicknamed `` The Imp '' or `` Halfman '' , Tyrion Lannister of House Lannister is the younger brother of Cersei and Jaime Lannister . He is a dwarf ; and his mother died during his birth , for which his father , Tywin Lannister , blames him . While not physically powerful , Tyrion has a cunning mind and often uses to his advantage the fact that others constantly underestimate him . In Season Three , Tyrion is given the job of Master of Coin , a role that he is unprepared and inexperienced for . Tyrion is commanded by his father to marry Sansa Stark ; however , on the wedding night , Tyrion refuses to consummate his marriage and instead lets Sansa sleep alone , promising not to touch her unless she wanted him to . The death of her brother Robb , in which Tyrion took no part , causes a further rift between the couple and between Tyrion and his father , who he claims ca n't distinguish between his interests and his often - praised ideal of devotion to family . Tywin bitterly claims that he had wanted to drown Tyrion upon birth , but stayed himself for the sake of duty . In season 4 , Tyrion welcomes Prince Oberyn Martell of Dorne to King 's Landing for Joffrey 's wedding to Margaery Tyrell , though Oberyn implies to Tyrion that his true purpose is to seek vengeance for his sister , who was murdered by Ser Gregor Clegane on Tywin 's orders . When Joffrey is fatally poisoned , Tyrion is framed and arrested . Tyrion , however , implies that Cersei knows of his innocence and just wants him dead . At Tyrion 's trial , he demands a trial by combat . Tyrion is approached by Oberyn , who volunteers to be his champion in order to fight Cersei 's champion , Ser Gregor Clegane . When Oberyn loses the fight and is killed , Tyrion is sentenced to death . Jaime , however , frees Tyrion and arranges for him to escape King 's Landing . Tyrion goes to confront Tywin in his chambers but finds Shae , who testified against him and is now Tywin 's lover . After a brief struggle , Tyrion strangles Shae to death , and Tyrion shoots Tywin to death with Joffrey 's crossbow . Tyrion is then placed in a crate and smuggled off to Essos with help from Varys . They arrive in Pentos , where Varys manages to convince Tyrion to travel with him to Meereen and aid Daenerys Targaryen in retaking the Iron Throne . Tyrion is bound and gagged by Jorah Mormont , who says that he will take him to Daenerys . Daenerys takes them both to her home in the Great Pyramid of Meereen and asks Tyrion why he is here . Tyrion tells her everything , including Varys ' plan . He initially counsels her to stay in Meereen , but Daenerys makes it plain to him that her eyes are still on Westeros . Tyrion tells Daenerys how hard it will be to win the love of both the common people and the nobles . He later joins her at the opening celebrations of Daznak 's Pit , where Jorah unexpectedly reappears to defeat every other foe on the arena . As the Sons of the Harpy attack , Tyrion manages to survive by fleeing to the midst of the arena , where they are rescued by Drogon , while Daenerys is spirited away on his back . In season 6 , Tyrion struggles to maintain peace in Meereen , particularly when the Sons of the Harpy burn the entire Meereenese Navy , stranding them in Slaver 's Bay . Following an alliance with Theon and Yara Greyjoy , Tyrion advises Daenerys to break up with Daario so that she may pursue a marriage alliance in Westeros . In gratitude for Tyrion 's loyalty , Daenerys names him her official Hand , and he accompanies her back to Westeros . In season 7 Tyrion 's advice to Daenerys often conflicts with her views , and he has mixed success in directing her actions . He sneaks into King 's Landing and meets with Jamie to set up a meeting between Cersei and Daenerys , which eventually happens in the Dragonpit outside the city . At the meeting a captured wight is produced to convince Cersei that the worst threat is from beyond the Wall . When Cersei is not convinced , Tyrion risks execution to meet with his sister to try again to persuade her . He is unexpectedly allowed +

                      The phonograph was invented in 1877 by Thomas Edison . While other inventors had produced devices that could record sounds , Edison 's phonograph was the first to be able to reproduce the recorded sound . His phonograph originally recorded sound onto a tinfoil sheet wrapped around a rotating cylinder . A stylus responding to sound vibrations produced an up and down or hill - and - dale groove in the foil . Alexander Graham Bell 's Volta Laboratory made several improvements in the 1880s and introduced the graphophone , including the use of wax - coated cardboard cylinders and a cutting stylus that moved from side to side in a zig zag groove around the record . In the 1890s , Emile Berliner initiated the transition from phonograph cylinders to flat discs with a spiral groove running from the periphery to near the center , coining the term gramophone for disc record players , which is predominantly used in many languages . Later improvements through the years included modifications to the turntable and its drive system , the stylus or needle , and the sound and equalization systems .

                      Thomas Alva Edison conceived the principle of recording and reproducing sound between May and July 1877 as a byproduct of his efforts to `` play back '' recorded telegraph messages and to automate speech sounds for transmission by telephone . He announced his invention of the first phonograph , a device for recording and replaying sound , on November 21 , 1877 ( early reports appear in Scientific American and several newspapers in the beginning of November , and an even earlier announcement of Edison working on a ' talking - machine ' can be found in the Chicago Daily Tribune on May 9 ) , and he demonstrated the device for the first time on November 29 ( it was patented on February 19 , 1878 as US Patent 200,521 ) . `` In December , 1877 , a young man came into the office of the SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN , and placed before the editors a small , simple machine about which very few preliminary remarks were offered . The visitor without any ceremony whatever turned the crank , and to the astonishment of all present the machine said : `` Good morning . How do you do ? How do you like the phonograph ? '' The machine thus spoke for itself , and made known the fact that it was the phonograph ... ''

Lee 's invasion was a failure at Antietam , and he barely escaped back to Virginia . It was now obvious that no final , conclusive Confederate triumph could be anticipated . The swift recession of the high Confederate tide was as visible in Britain as in America , and in the end , Palmerston and Russell dropped any notion of bringing a mediation - recognition program before the cabinet .

                      Indium ( / ˈɪndiəm / IN - dee - əm ) is a chemical element with the symbol In and atomic number 49 . This rare , very soft , malleable and easily fusible other metal is chemically similar to gallium and thallium , and shows the intermediate properties between these two . Indium was discovered in 1863 and named for the indigo blue line in its spectrum that was the first indication of its existence in zinc ores , as a new and unknown element . The metal was first isolated in the following year . Zinc ores continue to be the primary source of indium , where it is found in compound form . Very rarely the element can be found as grains of native ( free ) metal , but these are not of commercial importance .

                      In above ground food webs , energy moves from producers ( plants ) to primary consumers ( herbivores ) and then to secondary consumers ( predators ) . The phrase , trophic level , refers to the different levels or steps in the energy pathway . In other words , the producers , consumers , and decomposers are the main trophic levels . This chain of energy transferring from one species to another can continue several more times , but eventually ends . At the end of the food chain , decomposers such as bacteria and fungi break down dead plant and animal material into simple nutrients .

                      The book 's title is taken from the metaphysical poet John Donne 's series of meditations and prayers on health , pain , and sickness ( written while Donne was convalescing from a nearly fatal illness ) published in 1624 as Devotions upon Emergent Occasions , specifically Meditation XVII . Hemingway quotes part of the meditation ( using Donne 's original spelling ) in the book 's epigraph , which in turn refers to the practice of funeral tolling :

                      Throughout the early years of the war , British foreign secretary Lord Russell , Napoleon III , and , to a lesser extent , British Prime Minister Lord Palmerston , explored the risks and advantages of recognition of the Confederacy or at least offering a mediation . Recognition meant certain war with the US , loss of American grain , loss of exports , loss of investments in American securities , potential invasion of Canada and other North American colonies , higher taxes , and a threat to the British merchant marine with little to gain in return . Many party leaders and the general public wanted no war with such high costs and meager benefits . Recognition was considered following the Second Battle of Manassas , when the British government was preparing to mediate in the conflict , but the Union victory at the Battle of Antietam and Lincoln 's Emancipation Proclamation , combined with internal opposition , caused the government to back away .

The Federal Radio Commission authorized C.F. Jenkins to broadcast from experimental station W3XK in Wheaton Maryland , a suburb of Washington , D.C. For at least the first eighteen months , 48 - line silhouette images from motion picture film were broadcast , although beginning in the summer of 1929 he occasionally broadcast in halftones .

                      Unicorns are not found in Greek mythology , but rather in the accounts of natural history , for Greek writers of natural history were convinced of the reality of unicorns , which they believed lived in India , a distant and fabulous realm for them . The earliest description is from Ctesias , who in his book Indika ( `` On India '' ) described them as wild asses , fleet of foot , having a horn a cubit and a half ( 700 mm , 28 inches ) in length , and colored white , red and black . Aristotle must be following Ctesias when he mentions two one - horned animals , the oryx ( a kind of antelope ) and the so - called `` Indian ass '' . Strabo says that in the Caucasus there were one - horned horses with stag - like heads . Pliny the Elder mentions the oryx and an Indian ox ( perhaps a rhinoceros ) as one - horned beasts , as well as `` a very fierce animal called the monoceros which has the head of the stag , the feet of the elephant , and the tail of the boar , while the rest of the body is like that of the horse ; it makes a deep lowing noise , and has a single black horn , which projects from the middle of its forehead , two cubits ( 900 mm , 35 inches ) in length . '' In On the Nature of Animals ( Περὶ Ζῴων Ἰδιότητος , De natura animalium ) , Aelian , quoting Ctesias , adds that India produces also a one - horned horse ( iii. 41 ; iv. 52 ) , and says ( xvi. 20 ) that the monoceros ( Greek : μονόκερως ) was sometimes called cartazonos ( Greek : καρτάζωνος ) , which may be a form of the Arabic karkadann , meaning `` rhinoceros '' .

                      Each state chooses electors , equal in number to that state 's combined total of senators and representatives . There are a total of 538 electors , corresponding to the 435 representatives and 100 senators , plus the three electors for the District of Columbia as provided by the Twenty - third Amendment . The Constitution bars any federal official , elected or appointed , from being an elector . The Office of the Federal Register is charged with administering the Electoral College . Since the mid-19th century when all electors have been popularly chosen , the Electoral College has elected the candidate who received the most popular votes nationwide , except in four elections : 1876 , 1888 , 2000 , and 2016 . In 1824 , there were six states in which electors were legislatively appointed , rather than popularly elected , so the true national popular vote is uncertain ; the electors failed to select a winning candidate , so the matter was decided by the House of Representatives .

                      where C H O is glucose ( which is subsequently transformed into other sugars , cellulose , lignin , and so forth ) . The value of the photosynthetic efficiency is dependent on how light energy is defined -- it depends on whether we count only the light that is absorbed , and on what kind of light is used ( see Photosynthetically active radiation ) . It takes eight ( or perhaps 10 or more ) photons to utilize one molecule of CO . The Gibbs free energy for converting a mole of CO to glucose is 114 kcal , whereas eight moles of photons of wavelength 600 nm contains 381 kcal , giving a nominal efficiency of 30 % . However , photosynthesis can occur with light up to wavelength 720 nm so long as there is also light at wavelengths below 680 nm to keep Photosystem II operating ( see Chlorophyll ) . Using longer wavelengths means less light energy is needed for the same number of photons and therefore for the same amount of photosynthesis . For actual sunlight , where only 45 % of the light is in the photosynthetically active wavelength range , the theoretical maximum efficiency of solar energy conversion is approximately 11 % . In actuality , however , plants do not absorb all incoming sunlight ( due to reflection , respiration requirements of photosynthesis and the need for optimal solar radiation levels ) and do not convert all harvested energy into biomass , which results in an overall photosynthetic efficiency of 3 to 6 % of total solar radiation . If photosynthesis is inefficient , excess light energy must be dissipated to avoid damaging the photosynthetic apparatus . Energy can be dissipated as heat ( non-photochemical quenching ) , or emitted as chlorophyll fluorescence .

                      One of Lucas 's friends from Texas , Zay Babineaux , transfers to John Adams , and alludes to the fact that Lucas acted quite differently back in Texas . This causes Riley significant distress , and she begins to worry that Lucas may not be the right boyfriend for her . After discovering Lucas was expelled from his previous school , a parallel discussion begins in which Cory asks his students what the secret of life is . To further the conversation for the next class , Cory assigns the students to wash a car together and claims by doing so , they will find the secret of life . A disagreement regarding Lucas 's personality in Texas starts after the friends begin spraying each other with water . After they finish washing the car , Zay runs into a bully and Lucas attempts to help his friend out as Riley and Maya watch . Lucas threatens the bully away , and reveals to Riley that the reason he was expelled is because his temper got the best of him when Zay was in trouble . Through Cory 's lesson , the friends then realize that whatever Lucas 's personality was before he came to New York does not matter , as they have all changed him for the better .

                      The photon sphere is a spherical boundary of zero thickness in which photons that move on tangents to that sphere would be trapped in a circular orbit about the black hole . For non-rotating black holes , the photon sphere has a radius 1.5 times the Schwarzschild radius . Their orbits would be dynamically unstable , hence any small perturbation , such as a particle of infalling matter , would cause an instability that would grow over time , either setting the photon on an outward trajectory causing it to escape the black hole , or on an inward spiral where it would eventually cross the event horizon .

                      The Easter Bunny ( also called the Easter Rabbit or Easter Hare ) is a folkloric figure and symbol of Easter , depicted as a rabbit bringing Easter eggs . Originating among German Lutherans , the `` Easter Hare '' originally played the role of a judge , evaluating whether children were good or disobedient in behavior at the start of the season of Eastertide . The Easter Bunny is sometimes depicted with clothes . In legend , the creature carries colored eggs in his basket , candy , and sometimes also toys to the homes of children , and as such shows similarities to Santa Claus or the Christkind , as they both bring gifts to children on the night before their respective holidays . The custom was first mentioned in Georg Franck von Franckenau 's De ovis paschalibus ( ' About Easter Eggs ' ) in 1682 , referring to a German tradition of an Easter Hare bringing Easter eggs for the children .

                      The Broncos were barely competitive during their 10 - year run in the AFL and their first seven years in the NFL . They did not complete a winning season until 1973 . In 1977 , four years later , they qualified for the playoffs for the first time in franchise history and advanced to Super Bowl XII . Since 1975 , the Broncos have become one of the NFL 's more successful teams , having suffered only seven losing seasons . They have won eight AFC Championships ( 1977 , 1986 , 1987 , 1989 , 1997 , 1998 , 2013 , 2015 , and three Super Bowl championships ( 1997 ( XXXII ) , 1998 ( XXXIII ) , 2015 ( 50 ) . However , the Broncos share the NFL record for most Super Bowl losses ( 5 ) with the New England Patriots . They have five players in the Pro Football Hall of Fame : John Elway , Floyd Little , Gary Zimmerman , Shannon Sharpe and Terrell Davis .

                      Bacterial operons are polycistronic transcripts that are able to produce multiple proteins from one mRNA transcript . In this case , when lactose is required as a sugar source for the bacterium , the three genes of the lac operon can be expressed and their subsequent proteins translated : lacZ , lacY , and lacA . The gene product of lacZ is β - galactosidase which cleaves lactose , a disaccharide , into glucose and galactose . lacY encodes Beta - galactoside permease , a protein which becomes embedded in the cytoplasmic membrane to enable transport of lactose into the cell . Finally , lacA encodes β - galactoside transacetylase .

                      In human physiology there are two main types of epithelia using distinct types of barrier mechanism . Epidermal structures such as skin form a barrier from many layers of keratinized squamous cells . Internal epithelia on the other hand more often rely on tight junctions for their barrier function . This kind of barrier is mostly formed by only one or two layers of cells . It was long unclear whether tight cell junctions also play any role in the barrier function of the skin and similar external epithelia but recent research suggests that this is indeed the case .

                      Nissan Stadium is located on the east bank of the Cumberland River , directly across the river from downtown Nashville and has a listed seating capacity of 69,143 . Its first event was a preseason game between the Titans and the Atlanta Falcons on August 27 , 1999 . Since opening in 1999 it has been known by multiple names , including Adelphia Coliseum from 1999 to 2002 , The Coliseum from 2002 to 2006 , and LP Field from 2006 to 2015 .

                      +

                      Tight junctions are composed of a branching network of sealing strands , each strand acting independently from the others . Therefore , the efficiency of the junction in preventing ion passage increases exponentially with the number of strands . Each strand is formed from a row of transmembrane proteins embedded in both plasma membranes , with extracellular domains joining one another directly . Although more proteins are present , the major types are the claudins and the occludins . These associate with different peripheral membrane proteins such as ZO - 1 located on the intracellular side of plasma membrane , which anchor the strands to the actin component of the cytoskeleton . Thus , tight junctions join together the cytoskeletons of adjacent cells .

                      The first successful English colony was Jamestown , established May 14 , 1607 near Chesapeake Bay . The business venture was financed and coordinated by the London Virginia Company , a joint stock company looking for gold . Its first years were extremely difficult , with very high death rates from disease and starvation , wars with local Indians , and little gold . The colony survived and flourished by turning to tobacco as a cash crop . By the late 17th century , Virginia 's export economy was largely based on tobacco , and new , richer settlers came in to take up large portions of land , build large plantations and import indentured servants and slaves . In 1676 , Bacon 's Rebellion occurred , but was suppressed by royal officials . After Bacon 's Rebellion , African slaves rapidly replaced indentured servants as Virginia 's main labor force .

                      In September 1493 , Christopher Columbus set sail on his second voyage with 17 ships from Cádiz . On November 19 , 1493 he landed on the island of Puerto Rico , naming it San Juan Bautista in honor of Saint John the Baptist . The first European colony , Caparra , was founded on August 8 , 1508 by Juan Ponce de León , a lieutenant under Columbus , who was greeted by the Taíno Cacique Agüeybaná and who later became the first governor of the island . Ponce de Leon was actively involved in the Higuey massacre of 1503 in Puerto Rico . In 1508 , Sir Ponce de Leon was chosen by the Spanish Crown to lead the conquest and slavery of the Taíno Indians for gold mining operations . The following year , the colony was abandoned in favor of a nearby islet on the coast , named Puerto Rico ( Rich Port ) , which had a suitable harbor . In 1511 , a second settlement , San Germán was established in the southwestern part of the island . During the 1520s , the island took the name of Puerto Rico while the port became San Juan .

                      It has been claimed that jelly beans were mentioned first during 1861 , when Boston confectioner William Schrafft urged people to send his jelly beans to soldiers during the American Civil War . It was not until July 5 , 1905 , that jelly beans were mentioned in the Chicago Daily News . The advertisement publicized bulk jelly beans sold by volume for nine cents per pound , according to the book The Century in Food : America 's Fads and Favorites . Most historians contend that jelly beans were first associated with celebrations of Easter in the United States sometime during the 1930s due to their egg - like shape .

                      Like most mineral nutrients , the majority of the iron absorbed from digested food or supplements is absorbed in the duodenum by enterocytes of the duodenal lining . These cells have special molecules that allow them to move iron into the body . To be absorbed , dietary iron can be absorbed as part of a protein such as heme protein or iron must be in its ferrous Fe form . A ferric reductase enzyme on the enterocytes ' brush border , duodenal cytochrome B ( Dcytb ) , reduces ferric Fe to Fe . A protein called divalent metal transporter 1 ( DMT1 ) , which can transport several divalent metals across the plasma membrane , then transports iron across the enterocyte 's cell membrane into the cell .

                      Under federal law , airsoft guns are not classified as firearms and are legal for all ages . People under the age of 18 are not permitted to buy airsoft guns over the counter in stores . However , a person of any age may use one ( with the permission of their parents of course for anyone under 18 ) . This is also the case for the laws in each state . However , in some major cities , the definition of a firearm within their respected ordinances includes propulsion by spring or compressed air , thus making airsoft subject to applicable laws . For example , airsoft guns within the state of California can only be bought by a person above the age of 18 . However , no laws indicate an age requirement to sell airsoft guns . Generally speaking , toy , look - alike , and imitation firearms must have an orange tip during shipping and transportation .

                      Plant hormones are signal molecules produced within the plant , and occur in extremely low concentrations . Hormones regulate cellular processes in targeted cells locally and , moved to other locations , in other functional parts of the plant . Hormones also determine the formation of flowers , stems , leaves , the shedding of leaves , and the development and ripening of fruit . Plants , unlike animals , lack glands that produce and secrete hormones . Instead , each cell is capable of producing hormones . Plant hormones shape the plant , affecting seed growth , time of flowering , the sex of flowers , senescence of leaves , and fruits . They affect which tissues grow upward and which grow downward , leaf formation and stem growth , fruit development and ripening , plant longevity , and even plant death . Hormones are vital to plant growth , and , lacking them , plants would be mostly a mass of undifferentiated cells . So they are also known as growth factors or growth hormones . The term ' Phytohormone ' was coined by Went and Thimann and used in the title of their book in 1937 .

                      As with all casino games , blackjack incorporates a `` house edge '' , a statistical advantage for the casino that is built into the game . The advantage of the dealer 's position in blackjack relative to the player comes from the fact that if the player busts , the player loses , regardless of whether the dealer subsequently busts . Nonetheless , blackjack players using basic strategy will lose less than 1 % of their total wagered amount with strictly average luck ; this is very favorable to the player compared to other casino games . The loss rate of players who deviate from basic strategy through ignorance is generally expected to be greater .

                      The core of the Sun extends from the center to about 20 -- 25 % of the solar radius . It has a density of up to 7005150000000000000 ♠ 150 g / cm ( about 150 times the density of water ) and a temperature of close to 15.7 million kelvins ( K ) . By contrast , the Sun 's surface temperature is approximately 5,800 K. Recent analysis of SOHO mission data favors a faster rotation rate in the core than in the radiative zone above . Through most of the Sun 's life , energy has been produced by nuclear fusion in the core region through a series of steps called the p -- p ( proton -- proton ) chain ; this process converts hydrogen into helium . Only 0.8 % of the energy generated in the Sun comes from the CNO cycle , though this proportion is expected to increase as the Sun becomes older .

                      The Greek Fathers accepted the traditional belief in the evil eye , but attributed it to the Devil and envy . In Greek theology , the evil eye or vaskania ( βασκανία ) is considered harmful for the one whose envy inflicts it on others as well as for the sufferer . The Greek Church has an ancient prayer against vaskania from the Megan Hieron Synekdemon ( Μέγαν Ιερόν Συνέκδημον ) book of prayers .

                      Youth Day on 16 June is a public holiday in South Africa and commemorates a protest which resulted in a wave of protests across the country known as the Soweto uprising of 1976 . It came in response to multiple issues with the Bantu Education Act and the government edict in 1974 that Afrikaans be used as medium of instruction for certain subjects in black schools . The iconic picture of Hector Pieterson , a black schoolchild shot by the police , brought home to many people within and outside of South Africa the effect of the struggle during the Apartheid government 's reign .

                      The Sun is the star at the center of the Solar System . It is a nearly perfect sphere of hot plasma , with internal convective motion that generates a magnetic field via a dynamo process . It is by far the most important source of energy for life on Earth . Its diameter is about 1.39 million kilometers , i.e. 109 times that of Earth , and its mass is about 330,000 times that of Earth , accounting for about 99.86 % of the total mass of the Solar System . About three quarters of the Sun 's mass consists of hydrogen ( ~ 73 % ) ; the rest is mostly helium ( ~ 25 % ) , with much smaller quantities of heavier elements , including oxygen , carbon , neon , and iron .

                      There is no obligation for either or both houses of Congress to pass a budget resolution . There may not be a resolution every year ; if none is established , the previous year 's resolution remains in force . For example , the Senate has not passed a budget resolution for FY2011 , FY2012 , or FY2013 , and passed the FY2014 budget resolution on March 23 , 2013 , 23 days before the April 15 deadline set by the No Budget , No Pay Act of 2013 . This was the first budget resolution passed by the Senate since a FY2010 budget passed on April 29 , 2009 . The House and Senate may propose a budget independently of the President 's budget . For example , for the 2014 budget process , the House prepared its budget proposal on March 21 and the Senate proposed a budget on March 23 , while the President 's budget was not submitted until April 10 .

                      Zhōngguó is the most common sinitic name for China in modern times . The first appearance of 中國 on an artifact was in the Western Zhou on a ritual vessel known as He zun . It is formed by combining the characters zhōng ( 中 ) meaning `` central '' or `` middle '' , and guó ( 國 / 国 ) , representing `` state '' or `` states '' ; in contemporary usage , `` nation '' . Prior to the Qin unification of China `` Zhongguo '' referred to the `` Central States '' ; the connotation was the primacy of a culturally distinct core area , centered on the Yellow River valley , as distinguished from the tribal periphery . In later periods , however , `` Zhongguo '' was not used in this sense . Dynastic names were used for the state in Imperial China and concepts of the state aside from the ruling dynasty were little understood . Rather , the country was called by the name of the dynasty , such as `` Han dynasty '' ( Hanchao 漢 朝 ) , `` Tang dynasty '' ( Tangchao 唐 朝 ) , `` The Great Ming '' ( Daming 大明 ) , `` The Great Qing '' ( Daqing 大 清 ) , as the case might be . Until the 19th century when the international system came to require a common legal language , there was no need for a fixed or unique name .

                      During the first half of 1349 the Black Death spread northwards . A second front opened up when the plague arrived by ship at the Humber , wherefrom it spread both south and north . In May it reached York , and during the summer months of June , July and August , it ravaged the north . Certain northern counties , like Durham and Cumberland , had been the victim of violent incursions from the Scots , and were therefore left particularly vulnerable to the devastations of the plague . Pestilence is less virulent during the winter months , and spreads less rapidly . The Black Death in England had survived the winter of 1348 -- 49 , but during the following winter it gave in , and by December 1349 conditions were returning to relative normalcy . It had taken the disease approximately 500 days to traverse the entire country .

In countries where the show is broadcast live , friends selected for Phone - a-Friend are alerted when their contestant begins to play the main game , and are told to keep the phone free and to wait for three rings before answering . Phone - a-Friend was removed from the U.S. version beginning with the episode that aired on 11 January 2010 , after it was determined that there was an increasing trend of contestants ' friends using web search engines and other Internet resources to assist them , which unfairly privileged individuals who had computer access over those who did not , and that it was contrary to the original intent of the lifeline , by which friends were supposed to provide assistance based on what they already knew . From 2004 to 2008 , the U.S. version had a fourth lifeline called `` Switch the Question '' , earned upon answering question ten , in which the computer replaced , at the contestant 's request , one question with another of the same monetary value ; however , any lifelines used on the original question were not reinstated for the new question . Switch the Question returned as Cut the Question for a special week of shows with child contestants aired in 2014 ( in the latter case , it could only be used on the first ten questions ) .

                      Following its commercial introduction by businessman Elijah Bond on July 1 , 1890 , the ouija board was regarded as a parlor game unrelated to the occult until American spiritualist Pearl Curran popularized its use as a divining tool during World War I. Spiritualists believed that the dead were able to contact the living and reportedly used a talking board very similar to a modern ouija board at their camps in Ohio in 1886 to ostensibly enable faster communication with spirits .

                      The Oakland Raiders relocation to Las Vegas was a successful effort by the owner of the Oakland Raiders ( Mark Davis ) to relocate the American football club from its current and longtime home of Oakland , California to Las Vegas , Nevada . The team is scheduled to begin play as the Las Vegas Raiders for the 2020 National Football League ( NFL ) season ( although a move to Las Vegas could happen as soon as 2019 with Sam Boyd Stadium ) , playing home games at the Las Vegas Stadium . NFL team owners voted 31 -- 1 to approve the move , which was announced at the annual league meetings in Phoenix , Arizona on March 27 , 2017 . The Raiders became the third NFL franchise to relocate in the 2010s , following the Rams ' move from St. Louis , Missouri to Los Angeles , California on January 12 , 2016 , and the Chargers ' move from San Diego , California to Los Angeles on January 12 , 2017 . The Raiders ' move to Las Vegas comes after years of failed efforts to renovate or replace the Oakland -- Alameda County Coliseum , which has been rated by multiple sources as one of the worst stadiums in the NFL .

                      Running parallel to the shoreline about 5 miles ( 8.0 km ) from Utah Beach , the marshes of the Merderet and Douve formed a natural defensive line protecting the western end of the Allied landing zone and at the same time limiting the Allies ' potential to break out of the beachhead . Thus control of the bridges at Manoir de la Fière and Chef - du - Pont was seen as vital . The Merderet was assigned to the U.S. 82nd Airborne Division as Mission Boston , scheduled for 5 hours before the amphibious landings on D - Day . Cloud cover and German fire caused the landings to be dispersed ; the paratroopers took the strategic town of Sainte - Mère - Église but failed in their original mission to clear the west bank of the Merderet on D - Day and blow the bridge over the Douze at Pont l'Abbé ( now Étienville ) . The extent of their control of the bridges over the Merderet is disputed , but it was sufficient to hold off German counterattacks . These included an attack over the causeway at La Fiere by the 1057th Grenadier Regiment and light tanks of the 100th Panzer Replacement Battalion . This appears to have been the inspiration for the climactic battle in the film Saving Private Ryan , which is set around a bridge over the Merderet in the fictional town of Ramelle .

                      In both American and Canadian professional football , every player on the defensive team is considered eligible . The offensive team must have at least seven players lined up on the line of scrimmage . Of the players on the line of scrimmage , only the two players on the ends of the line of scrimmage are eligible receivers . The remaining players are in the backfield ( four in American football , five in Canadian football ) , including the quarterback . These backfield players are also eligible receivers . In the National Football League , a quarterback who takes his stance behind center as a T - formation quarterback is not eligible unless , before the ball is snapped , he legally moves to a position at least one yard behind the line of scrimmage or on the end of the line , and is stationary in that position for at least one second before the snap , but is nonetheless not counted toward the seven men required on the line of scrimmage .

                      As a result of the battle , the Roman army , commanded by Marcus Atilius Regulus , landed in Africa and began ravaging the Carthaginian countryside . The Siege of Aspis ( or Clupea ) was the first fighting on African land during the war . Regulus was next victorious at the Battle of Adys , forcing Carthage to sue for peace . According to Polybius , the terms suggested were so heavy that Carthage decided they would be better off not under Roman rule . The negotiations failed but fortunately , for the Carthaginians , Xanthippus , a Spartan mercenary , returned to Carthage to reorganise its army . Xanthippus defeated the Roman army and captured Regulus at the Battle of Tunis , and then managed to cut off what remained of the Roman army from its base by re-establishing Carthaginian naval supremacy .

In 1906 he won the chemistry and physics prizes at Eton . In 1906 , Moseley entered Trinity College of the University of Oxford , where he earned his bachelor 's degree . Immediately after graduation from Oxford in 1910 , Moseley became a demonstrator in physics at the University of Manchester under the supervision of Sir Ernest Rutherford . During Moseley 's first year at Manchester , he had a teaching load as a graduate teaching assistant , but following that first year , he was reassigned from his teaching duties to work as a graduate research assistant . He declined a fellowship offered by Rutherford , preferring to move back to Oxford , in November 1913 , where he was given laboratory facilities but no support .

                      The manga begins in 2001 , when the Diamond Is Unbreakable character Koichi Hirose goes to Naples at the request of Jotaro Kujo to find someone known as Haruno Shiobana and get a skin sample of theirs . Shiobana turns out to be a middle school student named Giorno Giovanna -- which sounds similar to `` Haruno Shiobana '' -- who is the son of Dio Brando . Giorno attempts to steal Koichi 's luggage , but is stopped by Koichi 's Stand , Echoes Act Three . Giorno recognized his power as being a Stand power similar to his Gold Experience , a Stand that can give life to inanimate objects . The story then follows Giorno as he tries to become a boss of the mafia in order to make Naples a better place and help its people , specifically where availability of drugs to young people are concerned . After an altercation with gang member Leaky Eye Luka , he attempts to join Passione , an organized crime group that employs many Stand users ( essentially , his vision for Passione is akin to Robin Hood 's band , in contrast to the sheer powerlust of its current leader ) . He is approached by a member of Passione , Bruno Bucciarati , who suspects him of killing Luka . During the fight readers are introduced to Buciarati 's Stand , Sticky Fingers , that can place and open a zipper on any surface . Bucciarati challenges Giorno to complete the rite to join Passione , and therefore visit the Capo , Polpo , in prison .

                      The octopus ( / ˈɒktəpəs / or ~ / pʊs / ) is a soft - bodied , eight - armed mollusc of the order Octopoda . Around 300 species are recognised and the order is grouped within the class Cephalopoda with squids , cuttlefish and nautiloids . Like other cephalopods , the octopus is bilaterally symmetric with two eyes and a beak , with its mouth at the centre point of the arms ( which are sometimes mistakenly called `` tentacles '' ) . The soft body can rapidly alter its shape , enabling octopuses to squeeze through small gaps . They trail their eight arms behind them as they swim . The siphon is used both for respiration and for locomotion , by expelling a jet of water . Octopuses have a complex nervous system and excellent sight , and are among the most intelligent and behaviourally diverse of all invertebrates .

                      The suffix - ase is used in biochemistry to form names of enzymes . The most common way to name enzymes is to add this suffix onto the end of the substrate , e.g. an enzyme that breaks down peroxides may be called peroxidase ; the enzyme that produces telomeres is called telomerase . Sometimes enzymes are named for the function they perform , rather than substrate , e.g. the enzyme that polymerizes ( assembles ) DNA into strands is called polymerase ; see also reverse transcriptase .

                      In Genesis 17 when Abram was ninety - nine years old , God declared his new name : `` Abraham '' -- `` a father of many nations '' , and gave him the covenant of circumcision . God gave Sarai the new name `` Sarah '' , and blessed her . Abraham was given assurance that Sarah would have a son . Not long afterwards , Abraham and Sarah were visited by three men . One of the visitors told Abraham that upon his return next year , Sarah would have a son . While at the tent entrance , Sarah overheard what was said , and she laughed to herself about the prospect of having a child at their ages . The visitor inquired of Abraham why Sarah laughed at the idea of bearing a child , for her age was as nothing to God . Sarah soon became pregnant and bore a son to Abraham , at the very time which had been spoken . The patriarch , then a hundred years old , named the child `` Isaac '' ( Hebrew yitschaq , `` laughter '' ) and circumcised him when he was eight days old . For Sarah , the thought of giving birth and nursing a child , at such an old age , also brought her much laughter , as she declared , `` God had made me to laugh , ( so that ) all that hear will laugh with me . '' Abraham held a great feast on the day when Isaac was to be weaned . It was during this banquet that Sarah happened upon the then teenaged Ishmael mocking and was so disturbed that she requested that both he and Hagar be removed from their company . Abraham was initially distressed by this but relented when told by God to do as his wife had asked .

                      Miller Lite was essentially the first mainstream light beer . After its first inception as `` Gablinger 's Diet Beer , '' developed in 1967 by Joseph L. Owades , PhD , a biochemist working for New York 's Rheingold Brewery , the recipe was given by Owades to Chicago 's Peter Hand Brewing . That year , Peter Hand Brewing was purchased by a group of investors , renamed Meister Brau Brewing , and Lite was soon introduced as Meister Brau Lite , a companion to their flagship Meister Brau . Under the new management , Meister Brau Brewing encountered significant financial problems , and in 1972 , sold several of its existing labels to Miller . The recipe was relaunched simply as `` Lite '' on packaging and in advertising ( with `` Lite Beer from Miller '' being its `` official '' name until the late ' 90s ) in the test markets of Springfield , Illinois , Knoxville , Tennessee , and San Diego , California , in 1973 , and heavily marketed using masculine pro sports players and other , so - called , macho figures of the day in an effort to sell to the key beer - drinking male demographic . Miller Lite was introduced nationally in 1975 . Miller 's heavy - advertising approach worked where the two previous light beers had failed , and Miller 's early production totals of 12.8 million barrels quickly increased to 24.2 million barrels by 1977 as Miller rose to 2nd place in the American brewing marketplace . Other brewers responded , in particular Anheuser - Busch with its heavily advertised Bud Light in 1982 , which eventually overtook Lite in sales by 1994 . Anheuser - Busch played on the branding style of `` Lite '' by highlighting the fact that their beer was called `` Bud Light , '' as `` everything else is just a light . '' In 1992 , light beers became the biggest domestic beer in America , and in 1998 , Miller relabeled its `` Lite '' brand as `` Miller Lite . ''

                      Since the late 1970s , the use of CFCs has been heavily regulated because of their destructive effects on the ozone layer . After the development of his electron capture detector , James Lovelock was the first to detect the widespread presence of CFCs in the air , finding a mole fraction of 60 ppt of CFC - 11 over Ireland . In a self - funded research expedition ending in 1973 , Lovelock went on to measure CFC - 11 in both the Arctic and Antarctic , finding the presence of the gas in each of 50 air samples collected , and concluding that CFCs are not hazardous to the environment . The experiment did however provide the first useful data on the presence of CFCs in the atmosphere . The damage caused by CFCs was discovered by Sherry Rowland and Mario Molina who , after hearing a lecture on the subject of Lovelock 's work , embarked on research resulting in the first publication suggesting the connection in 1974 . It turns out that one of CFCs ' most attractive features -- their low reactivity -- is key to their most destructive effects . CFCs ' lack of reactivity gives them a lifespan that can exceed 100 years , giving them time to diffuse into the upper stratosphere . Once in the stratosphere , the sun 's ultraviolet radiation is strong enough to cause the homolytic cleavage of the C - Cl bond .

                      Compounding this , to cut costs the NIT moved its early rounds out of Madison Square Garden in 1977 , playing games at home sites until the later rounds . This further harmed the NIT 's prestige , both regionalizing interest in it and marginalizing it by reducing its association with Madison Square Garden . By the mid-1980s , its transition to a secondary tournament for lesser teams was complete .

                      The electromagnetic spectrum covers electromagnetic waves with frequencies ranging from below one hertz to above 10 hertz , corresponding to wavelengths from thousands of kilometers down to a fraction of the size of an atomic nucleus . This frequency range is divided into separate bands , and the electromagnetic waves within each frequency band are called by different names ; beginning at the low frequency ( long wavelength ) end of the spectrum these are : radio waves , microwaves , terahertz waves , infrared , visible light , ultraviolet , X-rays , and gamma rays at the high - frequency ( short wavelength ) end . The electromagnetic waves in each of these bands have different characteristics , such as how they are produced , how they interact with matter , and their practical applications . The limit for long wavelengths is the size of the universe itself , while it is thought that the short wavelength limit is in the vicinity of the Planck length . Gamma rays , X-rays , and high ultraviolet are classified as ionizing radiation as their photons have enough energy to ionize atoms , causing chemical reactions . Exposure to these rays can be a health hazard , causing radiation sickness , DNA damage and cancer . Radiation of visible light wavelengths and lower are called nonionizing radiation as they can not cause these effects .

                      Several LDS historians believe that the term was used prior to Sharp 's mention , and has ties to sympathetic Democrats in Jackson County , Missouri . Their belief is that the term originated in Missouri , during the Kirtland period of Latter Day Saint history , circa 1834 . When Church members were expelled from Jackson County by a mob , many fled to Clay County , where local citizens , mostly Democrats , were sympathetic and friendly toward the Mormons . These citizens were pejoratively labeled `` Jack '' Mormons by the antagonistic citizens of Jackson County .

                      Electromagnetic waves are typically described by any of the following three physical properties : the frequency f , wavelength λ , or photon energy E. Frequencies observed in astronomy range from 7023239999999999999 ♠ 2.4 × 10 Hz ( 1 GeV gamma rays ) down to the local plasma frequency of the ionized interstellar medium ( ~ 1 kHz ) . Wavelength is inversely proportional to the wave frequency , so gamma rays have very short wavelengths that are fractions of the size of atoms , whereas wavelengths on the opposite end of the spectrum can be as long as the universe . Photon energy is directly proportional to the wave frequency , so gamma ray photons have the highest energy ( around a billion electron volts ) , while radio wave photons have very low energy ( around a femtoelectronvolt ) . These relations are illustrated by the following equations :

                      Various legends tell of the presence of Buddhism in Chinese soil in very ancient times . Nonetheless , the scholarly consensus is that Buddhism first came to China in the first century CE during the Han dynasty , through missionaries from India .

                      Demetrius is one of the iconic lovers in William Shakespeare 's play A Midsummer Night 's Dream . He is a young Athenian who is engaged to another young Athenian , Hermia . He claims to love her , but really appears this way to gain Duke Theseus ' and Egeus ' support ( in one interpretation ) . However , Hermia does not love Demetrius , but instead she loves a man called Lysander . Demetrius follows Hermia and Lysander into the woods once they have fled Athens , whilst Helena follows him . Helena craves Demetrius ' love but he does n't return her love and instead finds her annoying and a nuisance as she tries to win his heart . Eventually Demetrius falls in love with Helena due to Oberon and Puck putting the love juice on his eyes . The storyline is complex and shows the difficulties of true love through comedy .

                      Generations of scholars have debated whether Buddhist missionaries first reached Han China via the maritime or overland routes of the Silk Road . The maritime route hypothesis , favored by Liang Qichao and Paul Pelliot , proposed that Buddhism was originally practiced in southern China , the Yangtze River and Huai River region , where prince Ying of Chu ( present day Jiangsu ) was jointly worshipping the Yellow Emperor , Laozi , and Buddha in 65 CE . The overland route hypothesis , favored by Tang Yongtong , proposed that Buddhism disseminated eastward through Yuezhi and was originally practiced in western China , at the Han capital Luoyang ( present day Henan ) , where Emperor Ming of Han established the White Horse Temple in 68 CE . Rong Xinjiang , a history professor at Peking University , reexamined the overland and maritime hypotheses through a multi-disciplinary review of recent discoveries and research , including the Gandhāran Buddhist Texts , and concluded :

                      Buddhism appealed to Chinese intellectuals and elites and the development of gentry Buddhism was sought as an alternative to Confucianism and Daoism , since Buddhism 's emphasis on morality and ritual appealed to Confucianists and the desire to cultivate inner wisdom appealed to Daoists . Gentry Buddhism was a medium of introduction for the beginning of Buddhism in China , it gained imperial and courtly support . By the early 5th century Buddhism was established in south China . During this time , Indian monks continued to travel along the Silk Road to teach Buddhism , and translation work was primarily done by foreign monks rather than Chinese .

                      United States customary units are a system of measurements commonly used in the United States . The United States customary system ( USCS or USC ) developed from English units which were in use in the British Empire before the U.S. became an independent country . However , the United Kingdom 's system of measures was overhauled in 1824 to create the imperial system , changing the definitions of some units . Therefore , while many U.S. units are essentially similar to their Imperial counterparts , there are significant differences between the systems .

                      In the early twentieth century , biologists thought that proteins carried genetic information . This was based on the belief that proteins were more complex than DNA . Phoebus Levene 's influential `` tetranucleotide hypothesis '' , which incorrectly proposed that DNA was a repeating set of identical nucleotides , supported this conclusion . The results of the Avery -- MacLeod -- McCarty experiment , published in 1944 , suggested that DNA was the genetic material , but there was still some hesitation within the general scientific community to accept this , which set the stage for the Hershey -- Chase experiment .

                      A Hail Mary pass , also known as a shot play , is a very long forward pass in American football , made in desperation , with only a small chance of success and time running out on the clock . The term became widespread after a December 28 , 1975 NFL playoff game between the Dallas Cowboys and the Minnesota Vikings , when Cowboys quarterback Roger Staubach ( a Roman Catholic and fan of The Godfather Part II ( 1974 ) , whose character Fredo had popularized the phrase ) said about his game - winning touchdown pass to wide receiver Drew Pearson , `` I closed my eyes and said a Hail Mary .

                      The majority of U.S. customary units were redefined in terms of the meter and the kilogram with the Mendenhall Order of 1893 and , in practice , for many years before . These definitions were refined by the international yard and pound agreement of 1959 . Americans primarily use customary units in commercial activities , as well as for personal and social use . In science , medicine , many sectors of industry and some of government and military , metric units are used . The International System of Units ( SI ) , the modern form of the metric system , is preferred for many uses by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology ( NIST ) . For newer units of measure where there is no traditional customary unit , international units are used , sometimes mixed with customary units , such as electrical resistance of wire expressed in ohms ( SI ) per thousand feet .

                      The phrase `` parson 's nose '' comes from the notion that an English parson may ' have his nose up in the air ' , upturned like the chicken 's rear end . The term must have been known as early as around 1400 AD , when a carpenter had been contracted to provide new choir stalls for St Mary 's Church , Nantwich . The vicar was either slow to pay the artisan , or did not pay at all . In retaliation , on the last misericord in the stalls , the carpenter carved a bird with an image of that Vicar 's face with protuberant nose as rump . The carving is still visible today .

                      As the Messi family had relatives in Catalonia , they sought to arrange a trial with Barcelona in September 2000 . First team director Charly Rexach immediately wanted to sign him , but the board of directors hesitated ; at the time it was highly unusual for European clubs to sign foreign players of such a young age . On 14 December , an ultimatum was issued for Barcelona to prove their commitment , and Rexach , with no other paper at hand , offered a contract on a paper napkin . In February 2001 , the family relocated to Barcelona , where they moved into an apartment near the club 's stadium , Camp Nou . During his first year in Spain , Messi rarely played with the Infantiles due to a transfer conflict with Newell 's ; as a foreigner , he could only be fielded in friendlies and the Catalan league . Without football , he struggled to integrate into the team ; already reserved by nature , he was so quiet that his teammates initially believed he was mute . At home , he suffered from homesickness after his mother moved back to Rosario with his brothers and little sister , María Sol , while he stayed in Barcelona with his father .

                      In a chemical reaction , chemical equilibrium is the state in which both reactants and products are present in concentrations which have no further tendency to change with time , so that there is no observable change in the properties of the system . Usually , this state results when the forward reaction proceeds at the same rate as the reverse reaction . The reaction rates of the forward and backward reactions are generally not zero , but equal . Thus , there are no net changes in the concentrations of the reactant ( s ) and product ( s ) . Such a state is known as dynamic equilibrium .

                      Born and raised in central Argentina , Messi was diagnosed with a growth hormone deficiency as a child . At age 13 , he relocated to Spain to join Barcelona , who agreed to pay for his medical treatment . After a fast progression through Barcelona 's youth academy , Messi made his competitive debut aged 17 in October 2004 . Despite being injury - prone during his early career , he established himself as an integral player for the club within the next three years , finishing 2007 as a finalist for both the Ballon d'Or and FIFA World Player of the Year award , a feat he repeated the following year . His first uninterrupted campaign came in the 2008 -- 09 season , during which he helped Barcelona achieve the first treble in Spanish football . At 22 years old , Messi won the Ballon d'Or and FIFA World Player of the Year award by record voting margins .

                      After a year at Barcelona 's youth academy , La Masia , Messi was finally enrolled in the Royal Spanish Football Federation ( RFEF ) in February 2002 . Now playing in all competitions , he befriended his teammates , among whom were Cesc Fàbregas and Gerard Piqué . After completing his growth hormone treatment aged 14 , Messi became an integral part of the `` Baby Dream Team '' , Barcelona 's greatest - ever youth side . During his first full season ( 2002 -- 03 ) , he was top scorer with 36 goals in 30 games for the Cadetes A , who won an unprecedented treble of the league and both the Spanish and Catalan cups . The Copa Catalunya final , a 4 -- 1 victory over Espanyol , became known in club lore as the partido de la máscara , the final of the mask . A week after suffering a broken cheekbone during a league match , Messi was allowed to start the game on the condition that he wear a plastic protector ; soon hindered by the mask , he took it off and scored two goals in 10 minutes before his substitution . At the close of the season , he received an offer to join Arsenal , his first from a foreign club , but while Fàbregas and Piqué soon left for England , he chose to remain in Barcelona .

                      Magnetically soft ( low coercivity ) iron is used for the cores in electromagnets . The low coercivity reduces that energy loss associated with hysteresis . The low energy loss during a hysteresis loop is also the reason why soft iron is used for transformer cores and electric motors .

                      The `` Scramble for Africa '' was the occupation , division , and colonisation of African territory by European powers during the period of New Imperialism , between 1881 and 1914 . It is also called the Partition of Africa and by some the Conquest of Africa . In 1870 , only 10 percent of Africa was under European control ; by 1914 it had increased to almost 90 percent of the continent , with only Ethiopia ( Abyssinia ) , the Dervish state ( a portion of present - day Somalia ) and Liberia still being independent .

                      Mission Nuestra Señora de la Soledad , known colloquially as the Soledad Mission or Mission Soledad , is a Spanish mission located near the present - day town of Soledad , California . The mission was founded by the Franciscan order on October 9 , 1791 to convert the Native Americans living in the area to Catholicism . It was the thirteenth of California 's Spanish missions , and is named for Mary , Our Lady of Solitude . The town of Soledad is named for the mission .

                      During the campaign , Cortés was given support from a number of tributaries and rivals of the Aztecs , including the Totonacs , and the Tlaxcaltecas , Texcocans , and other city - states particularly bordering Lake Texcoco . In their advance , the allies were tricked and ambushed several times by the people they encountered . After eight months of battles and negotiations , which overcame the diplomatic resistance of the Aztec Emperor Moctezuma II to his visit , Cortés arrived in Tenochtitlan on November 8 , 1519 , where he took up residence , welcomed by Moctezuma . When news reached Cortés of the death of several of his men during the Aztec attack on the Totonacs in Veracruz , he took the opportunity to take Moctezuma captive , Moctezuma allowed himself to be captured as a diplomatic gesture . Capturing the cacique or indigenous ruler was standard operating procedure for Spaniards in their expansion in the Caribbean , so capturing Moctezuma had considerable precedent , which might well have included those in Spain during the Christian reconquest of territory held by Muslims .

                      The repeatedly mentioned phrase `` the day the music died '' refers to the plane crash in 1959 which killed early rock and roll performers Buddy Holly , The Big Bopper , and Ritchie Valens . ( The crash was not known by that name until after McLean 's song became a hit . ) The meaning of the other lyrics has long been debated , and for decades , McLean declined to explain the symbolism behind the many characters and events mentioned . However , the overall theme of the song is the loss of innocence of the early rock and roll generation as symbolized by the plane crash which claimed the lives of three of its heroes .

                      Speaking about the meaning of the lyrics , John Oates has stated that while many listeners may assume the lyrics are about a relationship , in reality , the song , `` is about the music business . That song is really about not being pushed around by big labels , managers , and agents and being told what to do , and being true to yourself creatively . '' This was done intentionally , he explained , to universalize the topic of the song into something everyone could relate to and ascribe personal meaning to in their own way . Naming `` Maneater '' as another example , he revealed that this was a common theme for the group 's songs .

                      The Methodist revival began with a group of men , including John Wesley ( 1703 -- 1791 ) and his younger brother Charles ( 1707 -- 1788 ) , as a movement within the Church of England in the 18th century . The Wesley brothers founded the `` Holy Club '' at the University of Oxford , where John was a fellow and later a lecturer at Lincoln College . The club met weekly and they systematically set about living a holy life . They were accustomed to receiving Communion every week , fasting regularly , abstaining from most forms of amusement and luxury and frequently visited the sick and the poor , as well as prisoners . The fellowship were branded as `` Methodist '' by their fellow students because of the way they used `` rule '' and `` method '' to go about their religious affairs . John , who was leader of the club , took the attempted mockery and turned it into a title of honour .

                      After leaving Southampton on 10 April 1912 , Titanic called at Cherbourg in France and Queenstown ( now Cobh ) in Ireland before heading west to New York . On 14 April , four days into the crossing and about 375 miles ( 600 km ) south of Newfoundland , she hit an iceberg at 11 : 40 p.m. ship 's time . The collision caused the hull plates to buckle inwards along her starboard ( right ) side and opened five of her sixteen watertight compartments to the sea ; she could only survive four flooding . Meanwhile , passengers and some crew members were evacuated in lifeboats , many of which were launched only partially loaded . A disproportionate number of men were left aboard because of a `` women and children first '' protocol for loading lifeboats . At 2 : 20 a.m. , she broke apart and foundered with well over one thousand people still aboard . Just under two hours after Titanic sank , the Cunard liner RMS Carpathia arrived and brought aboard an estimated 705 survivors .

                      The ignition switch does not carry the power to the fuel pump ; instead , it activates a relay which will handle the higher current load . It is common for the fuel pump relay to become oxidized and cease functioning ; this is much more common than the actual fuel pump failing . Modern engines utilize solid - state control which allows the fuel pressure to be controlled via pulse - width modulation of the pump voltage . This increases the life of the pump , allows a smaller and lighter device to be used , and reduces electrical load .

                      The astronomical predictions of Ptolemy 's geocentric model were used to prepare astrological and astronomical charts for over 1500 years . The geocentric model held sway into the early modern age , but from the late 16th century onward , it was gradually superseded by the Heliocentric model of Copernicus , Galileo and Kepler . There was much resistance to the transition between these two theories . Christian theologians were reluctant to reject a theory that agreed with Bible passages ( e.g. `` Sun , stand you still upon Gibeon '' , Joshua 10 : 12 ) . Others felt a new , unknown theory could not subvert an accepted consensus for geocentrism .

                      • Henry Gibson as Wilbur , a pig who was almost killed due to being a runt . Over time , however , he grows so much that one would never have known he was once a runt . When he learns of his fate of being slaughtered , Wilbur instantly breaks down into tears , until Charlotte tells him that she will do whatever it takes to save him . Wilbur is a friendly pig , but also prone to anxiety .
                      • Debbie Reynolds as Charlotte A. Cavatica , a spider who lives on a web in a corner of Homer 's barn above Wilbur 's pig pen . She is very loving and motherly , but sometimes grows frustrated at Wilbur 's anxiety issues . At the end of the film , she dies after laying 514 eggs , but three of them decide to stay with Wilbur .
                      • Paul Lynde as Templeton , a care - free , egotistical rat who lives at Homer 's farm . He helps Charlotte get new ideas for her webs on the condition that he is promised food . At the end of the film , as well as the sequel , he has four bratty children of his own : Henrietta , Lester , Ralphie , and Junior .
                      • Agnes Moorehead as the Goose , an unnamed goose who is the one that encourages Wilbur to speak for the first time . Her seven goslings later hatch , although there were actually eight eggs ( one was rotten ) . In the sequel , she was named Gwen .
                      • Don Messick as Jeffrey , a young , undersized gosling whom Wilbur befriends shortly after his birth . He initially lives , eats , and sleeps with Wilbur rather than his mother and siblings . At one point , Avery remarks that he sounds more like a pig than a gosling , which pleases Jeffrey . When Wilbur is loaded into a crate destined for the fair , Jeffrey casually walks in to join him , amusing the humans but they still remove and restrain him nevertheless . International VHS releases show a deleted scene in which Jeffrey is briefly seen riding with Avery in the back of the Arables ' truck , until it stops so Avery can put him down in the middle of the road . Distressed at being separated from Wilbur , Jeffrey tries to catch up with the truck to no avail , leaving him heartbroken . His mother gently directs him to the pond to join his siblings . Despite his previous insistence that they be friends forever , Jeffrey does not reunite with Wilbur when the latter returns from the fair nor does he appear in the rest of the film .

                      • William B. White as Henry Fussy , a boy of about Fern 's age , whom she soon starts spending time with while Wilbur is at the fair .

                      Initially the band was known as The How to Grow a Band . In 2007 , the band officially changed its name first to The Tensions Mountain Boys and then settled on Punch Brothers . The band 's name comes from the critical line of an earworm jingle that is the centerpiece of Mark Twain 's short story `` A Literary Nightmare '' . The chorus of the jingle consists of two lines , `` Punch , brothers ! punch with care ! Punch in the presence of the passenjare '' , that are said to be the mantra of railroad conductors .

                      In Western culture , the four principal phases of the Moon are new moon , first quarter , full moon , and third quarter ( also known as last quarter ) . These are the instances when the Moon 's ecliptic longitude and the Sun 's ecliptic longitude differ by 0 ° , 90 ° , 180 ° , and 270 ° , respectively . Each of these phases occur at slightly different times when viewed from different points on Earth . During the intervals between principal phases , the Moon 's apparent shape is either crescent or gibbous . These shapes , and the periods when the Moon shows them , are called the intermediate phases and last one - quarter of a synodic month , or 7.38 days , on average . However , their durations vary slightly because the Moon 's orbit is rather elliptical , so the satellite 's orbital speed is not constant . The descriptor waxing is used for an intermediate phase when the Moon 's apparent shape is thickening , from new to full moon , and waning when the shape is thinning .

                      The interior structure of the Earth is layered in spherical shells : an outer silicate solid crust , a highly viscous mantle , a liquid outer core that is much less viscous than the mantle , and a solid inner core . Scientific understanding of the internal structure of the Earth is based on observations of topography and bathymetry , observations of rock in outcrop , samples brought to the surface from greater depths by volcanoes or volcanic activity , analysis of the seismic waves that pass through the Earth , measurements of the gravitational and magnetic fields of the Earth , and experiments with crystalline solids at pressures and temperatures characteristic of the Earth 's deep interior .

                      Fire pumps are needed when the local municipal water system can not provide sufficient pressure to meet the hydraulic design requirements of the fire sprinkler system . This usually occurs if the building is very tall , such as in high - rise buildings , or in systems that require a relatively high terminal pressure at the fire sprinkler in order to provide a large volume of water , such as in storage warehouses . Fire pumps are also needed if fire protection water supply is provided from a ground level water storage tank .

Donald the Monkey ( Adam Sandler ) says that Stephanie will be at the zoo tomorrow , and all the animals have to do is make Griffin look like a hero in front of her .

                      Since NASCAR does not allow speedometers or electronic speed limiting devices , the pace car circles the track at pit road speed during the warm - up laps . This allows each driver to note the RPM at which pit road speed is maintained . Drivers exceeding that speed on pit road will be penalized , typically a `` drive - through '' or `` stop and go '' penalty , costing them valuable track position .

                    • Interferon type I : All type I IFNs bind to a specific cell surface receptor complex known as the IFN - α / β receptor ( IFNAR ) that consists of IFNAR1 and IFNAR2 chains . The type I interferons present in humans are IFN - α , IFN - β , IFN - ε , IFN - κ and IFN - ω . In general , type I interferons are produced when the body recognizes a virus has invaded it . They are produced by fibroblasts and monocytes . However , the production of type I IFN - α is prohibited by another cytokine known as Interleukin - 10 . Once released , type I interferons will activate molecules which prevent the virus from producing and replicating its RNA and DNA . Overall , IFN - α can be used to treat hepatitis B and C infections , while IFN - β can be used to treat multiple sclerosis .

                      During the 2016 WWE draft , The New Day were drafted to the Raw brand , making the WWE Tag Team Championship exclusive to the brand . In parallel to a lengthy feud with Gallows and Anderson for the title , The New Day became the longest reigning WWE Tag Team Champions in the title 's history , breaking the old record of 331 days previously set by Paul London and Brian Kendrick and , after the creation of the SmackDown Tag Team Championship for the SmackDown brand , became the last people to have held their championship as the sole tag team title in WWE and the first to hold it under its new name of Raw Tag Team Championship . The New Day would continue to successfully retain their championship against Gallows and Anderson in the following months , such as SummerSlam on August 21 , Clash of Champions on September 25 and the following night on Raw , ending their feud in the process .

                      In India simple artificial plant classification systems of the Rigveda , Atharvaveda and Taittiriya Samhita became more botanical with the work of Parashara ( c. 400 -- c. 500 AD ) , the author of Vṛksayurveda ( the science of life of trees ) . He made close observations of cells and leaves and divided plants into Dvimatrka ( Dicotyledons ) and Ekamatrka ( Monocotyledons ) . The dicotyledons were further classified into groupings ( ganas ) akin to modern floral families : Samiganiya ( Fabaceae ) , Puplikagalniya ( Rutaceae ) , Svastikaganiya ( Cruciferae ) , Tripuspaganiya ( Cucurbitaceae ) , Mallikaganiya ( Apocynaceae ) , and Kurcapuspaganiya ( Asteraceae ) . Important medieval Indian works of plant physiology include the Prthviniraparyam of Udayana , Nyayavindutika of Dharmottara , Saddarsana - samuccaya of Gunaratna , and Upaskara of Sankaramisra .

                      In common everyday speech , speed of sound refers to the speed of sound waves in air . However , the speed of sound varies from substance to substance : sound travels most slowly in gases ; it travels faster in liquids ; and faster still in solids . For example , ( as noted above ) , sound travels at 343 m / s in air ; it travels at 1,484 m / s in water ( 4.3 times as fast as in air ) ; and at 5,120 m / s in iron ( about 15 times as fast as in air ) . In an exceptionally stiff material such as diamond , sound travels at 12,000 metres per second ( 26,843 mph ) ; ( about 35 times as fast as in air ) which is around the maximum speed that sound will travel under normal conditions .

The main function of the cell nucleus is to control gene expression and mediate the replication of DNA during the cell cycle .

However , in membership organizations , the members elect the president of the organization and the president becomes the chair of the board , unless the bylaws say otherwise .

                      Gravity , or gravitation , is a natural phenomenon by which all things with mass are brought toward ( or gravitate toward ) one another , including objects ranging from atoms and photons , to planets and stars . Since energy and mass are equivalent , all forms of energy ( including light ) cause gravitation and are under the influence of it . On Earth , gravity gives weight to physical objects , and the Moon 's gravity causes the ocean tides . The gravitational attraction of the original gaseous matter present in the Universe caused it to begin coalescing , forming stars -- and for the stars to group together into galaxies -- so gravity is responsible for many of the large scale structures in the Universe . Gravity has an infinite range , although its effects become increasingly weaker on farther objects .

                      The melody of the song was composed by Don Felder in a rented house on Malibu Beach . He recorded the basic tracks with a Rhythm Ace drum machine and added a 12 string guitar on a four - track recording deck in his spare bedroom , then mixed in a bassline , and gave Don Henley and Glenn Frey each a copy of the recording . Felder , who met the Eagles through his high school bandmate Bernie Leadon , said that Leadon advised him to make tapes of songs he wrote for the band so that other band members like Henley , whose forte is in writing lyrics , might work with him on finishing the songs they like . The demos he made were always instrumental , and on every album project he would submit 15 or 16 ideas . The demo he made for `` Hotel California '' showed influences from Latin and reggae music , and it grabbed the attention of Henley who said he liked the song that `` sounds like a Mexican reggae or Bolero '' , which gave the song its first working title , `` Mexican Reggae '' .

                      Koch 's postulates ( / ˈkɔːx / ) are four criteria designed to establish a causative relationship between a microbe and a disease . The postulates were formulated by Robert Koch and Friedrich Loeffler in 1884 , based on earlier concepts described by Jakob Henle , and refined and published by Koch in 1890 . Koch applied the postulates to describe the etiology of cholera and tuberculosis , but they have been controversially generalized to other diseases . These postulates were generated prior to understanding of modern concepts in microbial pathogenesis that can not be examined using Koch 's postulates , including viruses ( which are obligate cellular parasites ) or asymptomatic carriers . They have largely been supplanted by other criteria such as the Bradford Hill criteria for infectious disease causality in modern public health .

                      On January 22 , 1903 , the Hay -- Herrán Treaty was signed by United States Secretary of State John M. Hay and Colombian Chargé Dr. Tomás Herrán . For $10 million and an annual payment it would have granted the United States a renewable lease in perpetuity from Colombia on the land proposed for the canal . The treaty was ratified by the U.S. Senate on March 14 , 1903 , but the Senate of Colombia did not ratify it . Bunau - Varilla told President Theodore Roosevelt and Hay of a possible revolt by Panamanian rebels who aimed to separate from Colombia , and hoped that the United States would support the rebels with U.S. troops and money . Roosevelt changed tactics , based in part on the Mallarino -- Bidlack Treaty of 1846 , and actively supported the separation of Panama from Colombia and , shortly after recognizing Panama , signed a treaty with the new Panamanian government under similar terms to the Hay -- Herrán Treaty .

                      On May 6 , 1904 , President Theodore Roosevelt appointed John Findley Wallace , formerly chief engineer and finally general manager of the Illinois Central Railroad , as chief engineer of the Panama Canal Project . Overwhelmed by the disease - plagued country and forced to use often dilapidated French infrastructure and equipment , as well as being frustrated by the overly bureaucratic ICC , Wallace resigned abruptly in June 1905 . He was succeeded by John Frank Stevens , a self - educated engineer who had built the Great Northern Railroad . Stevens was not a member of the ICC ; he increasingly viewed its bureaucracy as a serious hindrance , bypassing the commission and sending requests and demands directly to the Roosevelt Administration in Washington .

                      One of the most notable effects of the adoption of the Charter was to greatly expand the scope of judicial review , because the Charter is more explicit with respect to the guarantee of rights and the role of judges in enforcing them than was the Bill of Rights . The courts , when confronted with violations of Charter rights , have struck down unconstitutional federal and provincial statutes and regulations or parts of statutes and regulations , as they did when Canadian case law was primarily concerned with resolving issues of federalism . The Charter , however , granted new powers to the courts to enforce remedies that are more creative and to exclude more evidence in trials . These powers are greater than what was typical under the common law and under a system of government that , influenced by Canada 's parent country the United Kingdom , was based upon Parliamentary supremacy . As a result , the Charter has attracted both broad support from a majority of the Canadian electorate and criticisms by opponents of increased judicial power . The Charter only applies to government laws and actions ( including the laws and actions of federal , provincial , and municipal governments and public school boards ) , and sometimes to the common law , not to private activity .

In 1947 , the song was published under the title `` We Will Overcome '' in an edition of the People 's Songs Bulletin ( a publication of People 's Songs , an organization of which Pete Seeger was the director ) , as a contribution of and with an introduction by Zilphia Horton , then - music director of the Highlander Folk School of Monteagle , Tennessee ( an adult education school that trained union organizers ) .

                      Under the Charter , people physically present in Canada have numerous civil and political rights . Most of the rights can be exercised by any legal person ( the Charter does not define the corporation as a `` legal person '' ) , but a few of the rights belong exclusively to natural persons , or ( as in sections 3 and 6 ) only to citizens of Canada . The rights are enforceable by the courts through section 24 of the Charter , which allows courts discretion to award remedies to those whose rights have been denied . This section also allows courts to exclude evidence in trials if the evidence was acquired in a way that conflicts with the Charter and might damage the reputation of the justice system . Section 32 confirms that the Charter is binding on the federal government , the territories under its authority , and the provincial governments . The rights and freedoms enshrined in 34 sections of the Charter include :

                      During the launch of STS - 107 , Columbia 's 28th mission , a piece of foam insulation broke off from the Space Shuttle external tank and struck the left wing of the orbiter . A few previous shuttle launches had seen damage ranging from minor to major from foam shedding , but some engineers suspected that the damage to Columbia was more serious . NASA managers limited the investigation , reasoning that the crew could not have fixed the problem if it had been confirmed . When Columbia re-entered the atmosphere of Earth , the damage allowed hot atmospheric gases to penetrate and destroy the internal wing structure , which caused the spacecraft to become unstable and break apart .

Game 7 , an 8 -- 7 victory in extra innings , marked the fifth time that a Game 7 had gone past nine innings and the first since 1997 ( which , coincidentally , also featured the Indians ) . It was also the first to have a rain delay which occurred as the tenth inning was about to start . The Cubs became the sixth team to come back from a 3 - 1 deficit to win a best - of - seven World Series , following the 1925 Pittsburgh Pirates , the 1958 New York Yankees , the 1968 Detroit Tigers , the 1979 Pittsburgh Pirates , and the 1985 Kansas City Royals . This was the second time and the first since 1948 where the World Series score was even .

                      Helminths may cause iron - deficiency anemia . This is most severe in heavy hookworm infections , as Necator americanus and Ancylostoma duodenale feed directly on the blood of their hosts . Although the daily consumption of an individual worm ( 0.02 -- 0.07 ml and 0.14 -- 0.26 ml respectively ) is small , the collective consumption under heavy infection can be clinically significantly . Intestinal whipworm may also cause anemia . Anemia has also been associated with reduced stamina for physical labor , a decline in the ability to learn new information , and apathy , irritability , and fatigue . A study of the effect of deworming and iron supplementation in 47 students from the Democratic Republic of the Congo found that the intervention improved cognitive function . Another study found that in 159 Jamaican schoolchildren , deworming led to better auditory short - term memory and scanning and retrieval of long - term memory over a period of nine - weeks .

                      Programs that ensued for the duo included Step By Step in 1991 . The latter 's title track , `` Second Time Around '' , was sung by Frederick in a duet with Teresa James . It illustrated the story of the show 's newly married couple , Frank Lambert ( Patrick Duffy ) and Carol Foster ( Suzanne Somers ) , as they had visions of mixing their households of kids together . Step By Step was another TGIF hit , running six seasons on ABC and its seventh and final on CBS . From 1992 to 1994 , Frederick and Salvay 's newest project with Miller / Boyett was at first titled A New Day in its earliest development . Following a revamp in its creation ( by Bickley / Warren ) , it premiered on TGIF in March 1993 as Getting By . The series had two different theme songs during each of its two seasons , the second of which aired on NBC . The first theme that Frederick and Salvay wrote was sentimental in nature with woodwind instrumentation , and sung by Mark Lennon . The second theme had the funk / hip - hop sound that had started to be heard on sister shows such as Family Matters , and had a different male vocalist . In 1994 , the two worked on Miller / Boyett 's single - season comedy On Our Own . It starred Ralph Louis Harris and the six Smollett siblings as a family learning to fend for themselves after the death of their parents . The series ' theme , one in a long line of feel - good , inspirational tunes from Frederick and Salvay , was performed by Joe Turano .

                      Vertebrates originated about 525 million years ago during the Cambrian explosion , which saw the rise in organism diversity . The earliest known vertebrate is believed to be the Myllokunmingia . Another early vertebrate is Haikouichthys ercaicunensis . Unlike the other fauna that dominated the Cambrian , these groups had the basic vertebrate body plan : a notochord , rudimentary vertebrae , and a well - defined head and tail . All of these early vertebrates lacked jaws in the common sense and relied on filter feeding close to the seabed . A vertebrate group of uncertain phylogeny , small - eel - like conodonts , are known from microfossils of their paired tooth segments from the late Cambrian to the end of the Triassic .

                      Pangaea or Pangea ( / pænˈdʒiːə / ) was a supercontinent that existed during the late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic eras . It assembled from earlier continental units approximately 335 million years ago , and it began to break apart about 175 million years ago . In contrast to the present Earth and its distribution of continental mass , much of Pangaea was in the southern hemisphere and surrounded by a superocean , Panthalassa . Pangaea was the most recent supercontinent to have existed and the first to be reconstructed by geologists .

                      The Licensing Act 2003 ( c 17 ) is an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom . The Act establishes a single integrated scheme for licensing premises in England and Wales ( only ) which are used for the sale or supply of alcohol , to provide regulated entertainment , or to provide late night refreshment . Permission to carry on some or all of these licensable activities is now contained in a single licence -- the premises licence -- replacing several different and complex schemes . Responsibility for issuing licences now rests with local authorities , specifically London boroughs , Metropolitan boroughs , unitary authorities , and district councils , who took over this power from the Justices of the Peace . These authorities are each required to establish a Licensing Committee , which acts in a quasi-judicial capacity under the Act . The powers of the Act came fully into force at midnight at the start of 24 November 2005 .

                      The pretext for the war had its origins in border disputes between the Zulu leader , Cetshwayo , and the Boers in the Transvaal region . Following a commission enquiry on the border dispute which reported in favour of the Zulu nation in July 1878 , Sir Henry Bartle Frere , acting on his own , added an ultimatum to the commission meeting , much to the surprise of the Zulu representatives who then relayed it to Cetshwayo . Cetshwayo had not responded by the end of the year , so an extension was granted by Bartle Frere until 11 January 1879 . Cetshwayo returned no answer to the demands of Bartle Frere , and in January 1879 a British force under Lieutenant General Frederick Augustus Thesiger , 2nd Baron Chelmsford invaded Zululand , without authorization by the British Government .

                      Frere , on his own initiative , without the approval of the British government and with the intent of instigating a war with the Zulu , had presented an ultimatum on 11 December 1878 , to the Zulu king Cetshwayo with which the Zulu king could not comply , including disbanding his army and abandoning key cultural traditions . Bartle Frere then sent Lord Chelmsford to invade Zululand after this ultimatum was not met . The war is notable for several particularly bloody battles , including an opening victory of the Zulu at the Battle of Isandlwana , followed by the defeat of a large Zulu army at Rorke 's Drift by a small force of British troops . The war eventually resulted in a British victory and the end of the Zulu nation 's dominance of the region .

                      A typical explanation found in the scientific literature for the evolution of light hair is related to the evolution of light skin , and in turn the requirement for vitamin D synthesis and northern Europe 's seasonal less solar radiation . Lighter skin is due to a low concentration in pigmentation , thus allowing more sunlight to trigger the production of vitamin D. In this way , high frequencies of light hair in northern latitudes are a result of the light skin adaptation to lower levels of solar radiation , which reduces the prevalence of rickets caused by vitamin D deficiency . The darker pigmentation at higher latitudes in certain ethnic groups such as the Inuit is explained by a greater proportion of seafood in their diet and by the climate which they live in , because in the polar climate there is more ice or snow on the ground , and this reflects the solar radiation onto the skin , making this environment lack the conditions for the person to have blond , brown or red hair , light skin and blue , grey or green eyes .

                      The Empire reached its largest expanse under Trajan ( reigned 98 -- 117 ) , encompassing an area of 5 million square kilometres . The traditional population estimate of 55 -- 60 million inhabitants accounted for between one - sixth and one - fourth of the world 's total population and made it the largest population of any unified political entity in the West until the mid-19th century . Recent demographic studies have argued for a population peak ranging from 70 million to more than 100 million . Each of the three largest cities in the Empire -- Rome , Alexandria , and Antioch -- was almost twice the size of any European city at the beginning of the 17th century .

                      The Roman Empire was among the most powerful economic , cultural , political and military forces in the world of its time . It was one of the largest empires in world history . At its height under Trajan , it covered 5 million square kilometres . It held sway over an estimated 70 million people , at that time 21 % of the world 's entire population . The longevity and vast extent of the empire ensured the lasting influence of Latin and Greek language , culture , religion , inventions , architecture , philosophy , law and forms of government on the empire 's descendants . Throughout the European medieval period , attempts were even made to establish successors to the Roman Empire , including the Empire of Romania , a Crusader state ; and the Holy Roman Empire . By means of European colonialism following the Renaissance , and their descendant states , Greco - Roman and Judaeo - Christian culture was exported on a worldwide scale , playing a crucial role in the development of the modern world .

                      Penicillin was discovered in 1928 by Scottish scientist Alexander Fleming . People began using it to treat infections in 1942 . There are several enhanced penicillin families which are effective against additional bacteria ; these include the antistaphylococcal penicillins , aminopenicillins and the antipseudomonal penicillins . They are derived from Penicillium fungi .

                      With the Yuan dynasty crumbling , competing rebel groups began fighting for control of the country and thus the right to establish a new dynasty . In 1363 , Zhu Yuanzhang eliminated his archrival and leader of the rebel Han faction , Chen Youliang , in the Battle of Lake Poyang , arguably the largest naval battle in history . Known for its ambitious use of fire ships , Zhu 's force of 200,000 Ming sailors were able to defeat a Han rebel force over triple their size , claimed to be 650,000 - strong . The victory destroyed the last opposing rebel faction , leaving Zhu Yuanzhang in uncontested control of the bountiful Yangtze River Valley and cementing his power in the south . After the dynastic head of the Red Turbans suspiciously died in 1367 while a guest of Zhu , there was no one left who was remotely capable of contesting his march to the throne , and he made his imperial ambitions known by sending an army toward the Yuan capital Dadu ( present - day Beijing ) in 1368 . The last Yuan emperor fled north to the upper capital Shangdu , and Zhu declared the founding of the Ming dynasty after razing the Yuan palaces in Dadu to the ground ; the city was renamed Beiping in the same year . Zhu Yuanzhang took Hongwu , or `` Vastly Martial '' , as his era name .

                      The Roman Empire ( Latin : Imperium Rōmānum ; Classical Latin : ( ɪmˈpɛ. ri. ũː roːˈmaː. nũː ) Koine and Medieval Greek : Βασιλεία τῶν Ῥωμαίων , tr . Basileia tōn Rhōmaiōn ) was the post-Roman Republic period of the ancient Roman civilization , characterized by government headed by emperors and large territorial holdings around the Mediterranean Sea in Europe , Africa and Asia . The city of Rome was the largest city in the world c. 100 BC -- c . AD 400 , with Constantinople ( New Rome ) becoming the largest around AD 500 , and the Empire 's populace grew to an estimated 50 to 90 million inhabitants ( roughly 20 % of the world 's population at the time ) . The 500 - year - old republic which preceded it was severely destabilized in a series of civil wars and political conflict , during which Julius Caesar was appointed as perpetual dictator and then assassinated in 44 BC . Civil wars and executions continued , culminating in the victory of Octavian , Caesar 's adopted son , over Mark Antony and Cleopatra at the Battle of Actium in 31 BC and the annexation of Egypt . Octavian 's power was then unassailable and in 27 BC the Roman Senate formally granted him overarching power and the new title Augustus , effectively marking the end of the Roman Republic .

                      To ease the integration with the Internet , IMS uses IETF protocols wherever possible , e.g. , SIP ( Session Initiation Protocol ) . According to the 3GPP , IMS is not intended to standardize applications , but rather to aid the access of multimedia and voice applications from wireless and wireline terminals , i.e. , to create a form of fixed - mobile convergence ( FMC ) . This is done by having a horizontal control layer that isolates the access network from the service layer . From a logical architecture perspective , services need not have their own control functions , as the control layer is a common horizontal layer . However , in implementation this does not necessarily map into greater reduced cost and complexity .

                      Human fingerprints are detailed , nearly unique , difficult to alter , and durable over the life of an individual , making them suitable as long - term markers of human identity . They may be employed by police or other authorities to identify individuals who wish to conceal their identity , or to identify people who are incapacitated or deceased and thus unable to identify themselves , as in the aftermath of a natural disaster . Fingerprint analysis , in use since the early 20th century , has led to many crimes being solved . This means that many criminals consider gloves essential . In 2015 , the identification of sex by use of a fingerprint test has been reported .

                      Set during the Great Depression , the novel focuses on the Joads , a poor family of tenant farmers driven from their Oklahoma home by drought , economic hardship , agricultural industry changes , and bank foreclosures forcing tenant farmers out of work . Due to their nearly hopeless situation , and in part because they are trapped in the Dust Bowl , the Joads set out for California . Along with thousands of other `` Okies '' , they seek jobs , land , dignity , and a future .

                      The challenge of mass - producing this drug was daunting . On March 14 , 1942 , the first patient was treated for streptococcal septicemia with US - made penicillin produced by Merck & Co . Half of the total supply produced at the time was used on that one patient . By June 1942 , just enough US penicillin was available to treat ten patients . In July 1943 , the War Production Board drew up a plan for the mass distribution of penicillin stocks to Allied troops fighting in Europe . The results of fermentation research on corn steep liquor at the Northern Regional Research Laboratory at Peoria , Illinois , allowed the United States to produce 2.3 million doses in time for the invasion of Normandy in the spring of 1944 . After a worldwide search in 1943 , a mouldy cantaloupe in a Peoria , Illinois market was found to contain the best strain of mould for production using the corn steep liquor process . Pfizer scientist Jasper H. Kane suggested using a deep - tank fermentation method for producing large quantities of pharmaceutical - grade penicillin . Large - scale production resulted from the development of a deep - tank fermentation plant by chemical engineer Margaret Hutchinson Rousseau . As a direct result of the war and the War Production Board , by June 1945 , over 646 billion units per year were being produced .

                      The most contentious disputes revolved around composition and election of the upper legislative house in the future bicameral Congress , to be known as the Senate , how `` proportional representation '' was to be defined ( whether to include slaves or other property ) , whether to divide the executive power between three persons or invest the power into a single chief executive to be called the President , how to elect the President , how long his term was to be and whether he could run for reelection , what offenses should be impeachable , the nature of a fugitive slave clause , whether to allow the abolition of the slave trade , and whether judges should be chosen by the legislature or executive . Most of the time during the Convention was spent on deciding these issues , while the powers of legislature , executive , and judiciary were not heavily disputed . Once the Convention began , the delegates first agreed on the principles of the Convention , then they agreed on Madison 's proposed Virginia Plan and began to modify it . A Committee of Detail , assembled during the July 4th recess , eventually produced a rough draft of the constitution . Most of the rough draft remained in place , and can be found in the final version of the constitution . After the final issues were resolved , the Committee on Style produced the final version , and it was voted on by the delegates , inscribed on parchment with engraving for printing and sent to the states and their legislatures .

                      The Art of War is an ancient Chinese military treatise dating from the Spring and Autumn period in 5th century BC . The work , which is attributed to the ancient Chinese military strategist Sun Tzu ( `` Master Sun '' , also spelled Sunzi ) , is composed of 13 chapters . Each one is devoted to a distinct aspect of warfare and how that applies to military strategy and tactics . For almost 1,500 years it was the lead text in an anthology that would be formalised as the Seven Military Classics by Emperor Shenzong of Song in 1080 . The Art of War remains the most influential strategy text in East Asia . It has a profound influence on Eastern and Western military thinking , business tactics , legal strategy and beyond .

                      In 1966 , the Dallas Cowboys , who had been founded six years earlier , adopted the practice of hosting Thanksgiving games . It is widely rumored that the Cowboys sought a guarantee that they would regularly host Thanksgiving games as a condition of their very first one ( since games on days other than Sunday were uncommon at the time and thus high attendance was not a certainty ) . This is only partly true ; Dallas had in fact decided to host games on Thanksgiving by their own decision because there was nothing else to do or watch on that day . In 1975 and 1977 , at the behest of then - Commissioner Pete Rozelle , the St. Louis Cardinals replaced Dallas as a host team ( Dallas then hosted St. Louis in 1976 ) . Although the Cardinals , at the time known as the `` Cardiac Cards '' due to their propensity for winning very close games , were a modest success at the time , they were nowhere near as popular nationwide as the Cowboys , who were regular Super Bowl contenders during this era . This , combined with St. Louis 's consistently weak attendance , a series of ugly Cardinals losses in the three - game stretch , and opposition from the Kirkwood -- Webster Groves Turkey Day Game ( a local high school football contest ) led to Dallas resuming regular hosting duties in 1978 ; it was then , after Rozelle asked Dallas to resume hosting Thanksgiving games , that the Cowboys requested ( and received ) an agreement guaranteeing the Cowboys a spot on Thanksgiving Day forever .

Sinai has a land area of about 60,000 km ( 23,000 sq mi ) and a population of approximately 1,400,000 people . Administratively , the Sinai Peninsula is divided into two governorates : the South Sinai Governorate and the North Sinai Governorate . Three other governorates span the Suez Canal , crossing into African Egypt : Suez Governorate on the southern end of the Suez Canal , Ismailia Governorate in the center , and Port Said Governorate in the north .

                      The Mongol - led Yuan dynasty ( 1271 -- 1368 ) ruled before the establishment of the Ming dynasty . Explanations for the demise of the Yuan include institutionalized ethnic discrimination against Han Chinese that stirred resentment and rebellion , overtaxation of areas hard - hit by inflation , and massive flooding of the Yellow River as a result of the abandonment of irrigation projects . Consequently , agriculture and the economy were in shambles , and rebellion broke out among the hundreds of thousands of peasants called upon to work on repairing the dykes of the Yellow River . A number of Han Chinese groups revolted , including the Red Turbans in 1351 . The Red Turbans were affiliated with the White Lotus , a Buddhist secret society . Zhu Yuanzhang was a penniless peasant and Buddhist monk who joined the Red Turbans in 1352 ; he soon gained a reputation after marrying the foster daughter of a rebel commander . In 1356 , Zhu 's rebel force captured the city of Nanjing , which he would later establish as the capital of the Ming dynasty .

Ottoman forces fought the Entente in the Balkans and the Middle Eastern theatre of World War I . The Ottoman Empire 's defeat in the war in 1918 was crucial in the eventual dissolution of the empire in 1921 .

                      The electron transport chain consists of a spatially separated series of redox reactions in which electrons are transferred from a donor molecule to an acceptor molecule . The underlying force driving these reactions is the Gibbs free energy of the reactants and products . The Gibbs free energy is the energy available ( `` free '' ) to do work . Any reaction that decreases the overall Gibbs free energy of a system is thermodynamically spontaneous .

And I 've been so caught up in my job , did n't see what 's going on , and now I know , I 'm better sleeping on my own , '' he continues . In the chorus , Bieber sings , `` Cause if you like the way you look that much , oh baby you should go and love yourself , '' which according to Digital Spy 's Amy Davidson , `` ' love yourself ' means ' go f * * k yourself ' in this context . '' On March 7 , 2017 , composer Ed Sheeran stated on the Howard Stern Show that he had Rihanna in mind for the song at first , and the original lyric was indeed `` fuck yourself .

                      A number of English country estates were used as locations for the film , partly owing to the persuasive power of Ismail Merchant , who was able to cajole permission for the production to borrow houses not normally open to the public . Among them were Dyrham Park for the exterior of the house and the driveway , Powderham Castle ( staircase , hall , music room , bedroom ; used for the aqua - turquoise stairway scenes ) , Corsham Court ( library and dining room ) and Badminton House ( servants ' quarters , conservatory , entrance hall ) . Luciana Arrighi , the production designer , scouted most of these locations . Scenes were also shot in Weston - super-Mare , which stood in for Clevedon .

They thought its terms were considerably more lenient than they actually were , a source of discontent later that the Allies had betrayed the offered terms .

                      The retina is stratified into distinct layers , each containing specific cell types or cellular compartments that have metabolisms with different nutritional requirements . To satisfy these requirements , the ophthalmic artery bifurcates and supplies the retina via two distinct vascular networks : the choroidal network , which supplies the choroid and the outer retina , and the retinal network , which supplies the retina 's inner layer .

                      Revision 1.0 a was released on January 7 , 2003 . First - generation SATA interfaces , now known as SATA 1.5 Gbit / s , communicate at a rate of 1.5 Gbit / s , and do not support Native Command Queuing ( NCQ ) . Taking 8b / 10b encoding overhead into account , they have an actual uncoded transfer rate of 1.2 Gbit / s ( 150 MB / s ) . The theoretical burst throughput of SATA 1.5 Gbit / s is similar to that of PATA / 133 , but newer SATA devices offer enhancements such as NCQ , which improve performance in a multitasking environment .

                      Jan Evangelista Purkyně or Purkinje ( 1787 -- 1869 ) , a Czech physiologist and professor of anatomy at the University of Breslau , published a thesis in 1823 discussing 9 fingerprint patterns , but he did not mention any possibility of using fingerprints to identify people . In 1840 , following the murder of Lord William Russell , a provincial doctor , Robert Blake Overton , wrote to Scotland Yard suggesting checking for fingerprints but the suggestion , though followed up , did not lead to their routine use by the police for another 50 years . Some years later , the German anatomist Georg von Meissner ( 1829 -- 1905 ) studied friction ridges , and five years after this , in 1858 , Sir William James Herschel initiated fingerprinting in India . In 1877 at Hooghly ( near Calcutta ) he instituted the use of fingerprints on contracts and deeds to prevent the then - rampant repudiation of signatures and he registered government pensioners ' fingerprints to prevent the collection of money by relatives after a pensioner 's death . Herschel also fingerprinted prisoners upon sentencing to prevent various frauds that were attempted in order to avoid serving a prison sentence .

                      In section , the retina is no more than 0.5 mm thick . It has three layers of nerve cells and two of synapses , including the unique ribbon synapse . The optic nerve carries the ganglion cell axons to the brain , and the blood vessels that supply the retina . The ganglion cells lie innermost in the eye while the photoreceptive cells lie beyond . Because of this counter-intuitive arrangement , light must first pass through and around the ganglion cells and through the thickness of the retina , ( including its capillary vessels , not shown ) before reaching the rods and cones . Light is absorbed by the retinal pigment epithelium or the choroid ( both of which are opaque ) .

                      Tensions erupted into battle between Patriot militia and British regulars when the king 's army attempted to capture and destroy Colonial military supplies at Lexington and Concord on April 19 , 1775 . The conflict then developed into a global war , during which the Patriots ( and later their French , Spanish , and Dutch allies ) fought the British and Loyalists in what became known as the American Revolutionary War ( 1775 -- 83 ) . Each of the thirteen colonies formed a Provincial Congress that assumed power from the old colonial governments and suppressed Loyalism , and from there they built a Continental Army under the leadership of General George Washington . The Continental Congress determined King George 's rule to be tyrannical and infringing the colonists ' rights as Englishmen , and they declared the colonies free and independent states on July 2 , 1776 . The Patriot leadership professed the political philosophies of liberalism and republicanism to reject monarchy and aristocracy , and they proclaimed that all men are created equal .

                      Beginning with the 1492 arrival of Christopher Columbus in the Caribbean and continuing control of vast territory for over three centuries , the Spanish Empire would expand across the Caribbean Islands , half of South America , most of Central America and much of North America ( including present day Mexico , Florida and the Southwestern and Pacific Coastal regions of the United States ) . It is estimated that during the colonial period ( 1492 -- 1832 ) , a total of 1.86 million Spaniards settled in the Americas and a further 3.5 million immigrated during the post-colonial era ( 1850 -- 1950 ) ; the estimate is 250,000 in the 16th century , and most during the 18th century as immigration was encouraged by the new Bourbon Dynasty .

                      The Pledge of Allegiance of the United States is an expression of allegiance to the Flag of the United States and the republic of the United States of America . It was originally composed by Captain George Thatcher Balch , a Union Army Officer during the Civil War and later a teacher of patriotism in New York City schools . The form of the pledge used today was largely devised by Francis Bellamy in 1892 , and formally adopted by Congress as the pledge in 1942 . The official name of The Pledge of Allegiance was adopted in 1945 . The most recent alteration of its wording came on Flag Day in 1954 , when the words `` under God '' were added .

                      If donor hair numbers from the back of the head are insufficient , it is possible to perform body hair transplantation ( BHT ) on appropriate candidates who have available donor hair on the chest , back , shoulders , torso and / or legs . Body hair transplant surgery can only be performed by the FUE harvesting method and , so , requires the skills of an experienced FUE surgeon . However , there are several factors for a potential BHT candidate to consider prior to surgery .

                      Arnold also realized such a flanking maneuver was likely , and petitioned Gates for permission to move his forces from the heights to meet potential movements , where the American skill at woodlands combat would be at an advantage . Gates , whose preferred strategy was to sit and wait for the expected frontal assault , grudgingly permitted a reconnaissance in force consisting of Daniel Morgan 's men and Henry Dearborn 's light infantry . When Morgan 's men reached an open field northwest of Bemis Heights belonging to Loyalist John Freeman , they spotted British advance troops in the field . Fraser 's column was slightly delayed and had not yet reached the field , while Hamilton 's column had also made its way across a ravine and was approaching the field from the east through dense forest and difficult terrain . Riedesel 's force , while it was on the road , was delayed by obstacles thrown down by the Americans . The sound of gunfire to the west prompted Riedesel to send some of his artillery down a track in that direction . The troops Morgan 's men saw were an advance company from Hamilton 's column .

                      India recorded their first Test victory , in their 24th match , against England at Madras in 1952 . Later in the same year , they won their first Test series , which was against Pakistan . They continued their improvement throughout the early 1950s with a series win against New Zealand in 1956 . However , they did not win again in the remainder of the decade and lost badly to strong Australian and English sides . On 24 August 1959 , India lost by an innings in the Test to complete the only 5 -- 0 whitewash ever inflicted by England . The next decade saw India 's reputation develop as a team with a strong record at home . They won their first Test series against England at home in 1961 -- 62 and also won a home series against New Zealand . They managed to draw home series against Pakistan and Australia and another series against England .

                      Although cricket was introduced to India by European merchant sailors in the 18th century , and the first cricket club was established in Calcutta ( currently known as Kolkata ) in 1792 , India 's national cricket team did not play its first Test match until 25 June 1932 at Lord 's , becoming the sixth team to be granted Test cricket status . In its first fifty years of international cricket , India was one of the weaker teams , winning only 35 of the first 196 Test matches it played . From 1932 India had to wait until 1952 , almost 20 years for its first Test victory . The team , however , gained strength in the 1970s with the emergence of players such as batsmen Sunil Gavaskar and Gundappa Viswanath , all - rounder Kapil Dev and the Indian spin quartet of Erapalli Prasanna , Srinivas Venkataraghavan , Bhagwat Chandrasekhar and Bishen Singh Bedi .

                      The peripheral nervous system ( PNS ) is one of the two components of the nervous system , the other part is the central nervous system ( CNS ) . The PNS consists of the nerves and ganglia outside the brain and spinal cord . The main function of the PNS is to connect the CNS to the limbs and organs , essentially serving as a relay between the brain and spinal cord and the rest of the body . Unlike the CNS , the PNS is not protected by the vertebral column and skull , or by the blood -- brain barrier , which leaves it exposed to toxins and mechanical injuries . The peripheral nervous system is divided into the somatic nervous system and the autonomic nervous system . In the somatic nervous system , the cranial nerves are part of the PNS with the exception of the optic nerve ( cranial nerve II ) , along with the retina . The second cranial nerve is not a true peripheral nerve but a tract of the diencephalon . Cranial nerve ganglia originated in the CNS . However , the remaining ten cranial nerve axons extend beyond the brain and are therefore considered part of the PNS . The autonomic nervous system is an involuntary control of smooth muscle and glands . The connection between CNS and organs allows the system to be in two different functional states : sympathetic and parasympathetic .

                      Groundhog Day , ( Pennsylvania German : Grund'sau dåk , Grundsaudaag , Grundsow Dawg , Murmeltiertag ; Nova Scotia : Daks Day ) is a popular tradition celebrated in the United States and Canada on February 2 . It derives from the Pennsylvania Dutch superstition that if a groundhog ( Deitsch : Grundsau , Grunddax , Dax ) emerging from its burrow on this day sees a shadow due to clear weather , it will retreat to its den and winter will persist for six more weeks , and if it does not see its shadow because of cloudiness , spring will arrive early . While the tradition remains popular in modern times , studies have found no consistent correlation between a groundhog seeing its shadow or not and the subsequent arrival time of spring - like weather .

                      After mating , the female spends extra time basking to keep her eggs warm . She may also have a change of diet , eating only certain foods , or not eating as much as she normally would . A female can lay between two and 30 eggs depending on body size and other factors . One female can lay up to five clutches in the same year , and clutches are usually spaced 12 to 36 days apart . The time between mating and egg - laying can be days or weeks . The actual egg fertilization takes place during the egg - laying . This process also permits the laying of fertile eggs the following season , as the sperm can remain viable and available in the female 's body in the absence of mating . During the last weeks of gestation , the female spends less time in the water and smells and scratches at the ground , indicating she is searching for a suitable place to lay her eggs . The female excavates a hole , using her hind legs , and lays her eggs in it .

                          The beginning of the empire is conventionally dated to the victory by its founder Babur over Ibrahim Lodi , the last ruler of the Delhi Sultanate , in the First Battle of Panipat ( 1526 ) . The Mughal emperors had roots in the Turco - Mongol Timurid dynasty of Central Asia , claiming direct descent from both Genghis Khan ( founder of the Mongol Empire , through his son Chagatai Khan ) and Timur ( Turco - Mongol conqueror who founded the Timurid Empire ) . During the reign of Humayun , the successor of Babur , the empire was briefly interrupted by the Sur Empire . The `` classic period '' of the Mughal Empire started in 1556 with the ascension of Akbar the Great to the throne . Under the rule of Akbar and his son Jahangir , the region enjoyed economic progress as well as religious harmony , and the monarchs were interested in local religious and cultural traditions . Akbar was a successful warrior who also forged alliances with several Hindu Rajput kingdoms . Some Rajput kingdoms continued to pose a significant threat to the Mughal dominance of northwestern India , but most of them were subdued by Akbar . All Mughal emperors were Muslims ; Akbar , however , propounded a syncretic religion in the latter part of his life called Dīn - i Ilāhī , as recorded in historical books like Ain - i - Akbari and Dabistān - i Mazāhib .

                      Chinese calendar defines the lunar month with winter solstice as the 11th month , which means that Chinese New Year usually falls on the second new moon after the winter solstice ( rarely the third if an intercalary month intervenes ) . In more than 96 % of the years , the Chinese New Year 's Day is the closest new moon to lichun ( Chinese : 立春 ; `` start of spring '' ) on 4 or 5 February , and the first new moon after Dahan ( Chinese : 大寒 ; `` major cold '' ) . In the Gregorian calendar , the Lunar New Year begins at the new moon that falls between 21 January and 20 February .

                      Neither of the tip and ring conductors is permanently connected to earth ground , but may be connected to ground during signaling operations . Typically , the ring conductor has a direct current ( DC ) potential of − 48 V to − 52 V with respect to the tip conductor when the line is in the on - hook ( idle ) state . Floating both conductors , not referencing either one to ground , minimizes the pickup of hum from any nearby alternating current ( AC ) power wires .

                      The geocentric model was eventually replaced by the heliocentric model . The earliest heliocentric model , Copernican heliocentrism , could remove Ptolemy 's epicycles because the retrograde motion could be seen to be the result of the combination of Earth and planet movement and speeds . Copernicus felt strongly that equants were a violation of Aristotelian purity , and proved that replacement of the equant with a pair of new epicycles was entirely equivalent . Astronomers often continued using the equants instead of the epicycles because the former was easier to calculate , and gave the same result .

                      Home computers were a class of microcomputers entering the market in 1977 , and becoming common during the 1980s . They were marketed to consumers as affordable and accessible computers that , for the first time , were intended for the use of a single nontechnical user . These computers were a distinct market segment that typically cost much less than business , scientific or engineering - oriented computers of the time such as the IBM PC , and were generally less powerful in terms of memory and expandability . However , a home computer often had better graphics and sound than contemporary business computers . Their most common uses were playing video games , but they were also regularly used for word processing , doing homework , and programming .

                      The term was originally used in the United States in the late - 19th and early - 20th centuries to refer to small traveling circuses that toured through small towns and rural areas . The name derives from the common use of performing dogs and ponies as the main attractions of the events . Performances were generally held in open - air arenas , such as race tracks or public spaces in localities that were too small or remote to attract larger , more elaborate performers or performances . The most notorious was `` Prof. Gentry 's Famous Dog & Pony Show , '' started when teenager Henry Gentry and his brothers started touring in 1886 with their act , originally entitled `` Gentry 's Equine and Canine Paradox . '' It started small , but evolved into a full circus show . Other early dog and pony shows included Morris ' Equine and Canine Paradoxes ( 1883 ) and Hurlburt 's Dog and Pony Show ( late 1880s ) .

While Erii rekindles with Banri , who is undergoing physiotherapy , Mikoto tries to come up with a way to surprise Banri with a present everyone bought for her , only to realize she had left the bag containing the present in Banri 's ward . Just then , a criminal patient that was under watch by the Anti-Skills is broken free by some of his companions and takes Erii as a hostage . Upon learning of the situation from Aiho Yomikawa and Tsuzuri Tessō , Mikoto heads to the rooftop to try and prevent the culprits escaping via helicopter . They throw Erii off the side of the building in order to break free , but she is saved thanks to Ruiko and Kuroko . Learning that her bag is onboard the fleeing helicopter , Mikoto has Kuroko teleport her to the skies where she destroys the helicopter with her railgun , with Kuroko safely apprehending the culprits . With the incident dealt with , Banri finally opens her present from everyone , which is a Sakugawa Middle School uniform for her to wear once she recovers .

                      Mikoto recalls in a dream of how , when she was younger , she was approached by scientists wanting to use her DNA map to help cure Duchenne muscular dystrophy . The next morning , Kuroko tries to take Mikoto through an alleyway to get to the mall , but they encounter a few people passing by . They discover this is due to someone hiding envelopes containing cash cards within the alleyways , piquing people 's curiosity to search for them . After running into Ruiko , who is also on the hunt for the money cards , Mikoto overhears some Skill - Outs who have managed to locate the source of the envelopes and decides to follow them . Meanwhile , Ruiko grows curious as she had allegedly seen Mikoto at the mall , despite Mikoto never actually getting there , with Mii Konori explaining to Kazari about a rumor of there being clones of a Level 5 esper . The Skill - Outs eventually trace the envelopes back to a Nagatenjōki Academy student , demanding she hand over the other envelopes . Things get tense , however , when it appears the Skill - Outs are gradually getting killed off by the girl , who claims to be able to freely kill anyone she has touched . When Mikoto arrives on the scene , the girl , who had simply knocked out all the Skill - Outs using anesthetic and clever acting skills , recognizes her as the `` original '' .

                      Mikoto is reminded of rumors about there being a clone of her and attempts to question the girl , who was distributing the envelopes in order to fill the alleyways that security cameras can not reach with human eyes . However , the girl leaves after inadvertently setting the building on fire whilst burning the evidence , simply stating Mikoto is better off not knowing as she would be unable to stop what was happening with her power . After saving the Skill - Outs , Mikoto looks up for information on the girl , whose name is revealed to be Shinobu Nunotaba , who actually worked at the same medical facility where she had given the scientists her DNA map years ago . Mikoto infiltrates the facility and comes across a room that is separate from the rest of the building 's network . Mikoto hacks into database there and is shocked to learn that the scientists tricked her into giving them her DNA map in order to create clones called `` Sisters '' , known as Project Radio Noise .

                      According to tradition , the Islamic prophet Muhammad was born in Mecca around the year 570 . His family belonged to the Quraysh . When he was about forty years old , he began receiving what Muslims consider to be divine revelations delivered through the angel Gabriel , which would later form the Quran , enjoining him to proclaim a strict monotheistic faith , warn his compatriots of the impending Judgement Day , and castigate social injustices of his city . Muhammad 's message won over a handful of followers and was met with increasing opposition from notables of Mecca . In 618 , after he lost protection with the death of his influential uncle Abu Talib , Muhammad took flight to the city of Yathrib ( subsequently called Medina ) where he was joined by his followers . Later generations would count this event , known as the hijra , as the start of the Islamic era .

                    • Carbon dioxide ( CO ) - Because of its role as a greenhouse gas it has been described as `` the leading pollutant '' and `` the worst climate pollution '' . Carbon dioxide is a natural component of the atmosphere , essential for plant life and given off by the human respiratory system . This question of terminology has practical effects , for example as determining whether the U.S. Clean Air Act is deemed to regulate CO emissions . CO currently forms about 405 parts per million ( ppm ) of earth 's atmosphere , compared to about 280 ppm in pre-industrial times , and billions of metric tons of CO are emitted annually by burning of fossil fuels . CO increase in earth 's atmosphere has been accelerating .

The dispute would intensify greatly after the Battle of Karbala , in which Muhammad 's grandson Hussein ibn Ali was killed by the ruling Umayyad Caliph Yazid I , and the outcry for revenge divided the early Islamic community .

                      Escherichia coli ( / ˌɛʃɪˈrɪkiə ˈkoʊlaɪ / ; also known as E. coli ) is a Gram - negative , facultatively anaerobic , rod - shaped , coliform bacterium of the genus Escherichia that is commonly found in the lower intestine of warm - blooded organisms ( endotherms ) . Most E. coli strains are harmless , but some serotypes can cause serious food poisoning in their hosts , and are occasionally responsible for product recalls due to food contamination . The harmless strains are part of the normal flora of the gut , and can benefit their hosts by producing vitamin K , and preventing colonization of the intestine with pathogenic bacteria , having a symbiotic relationship . E. coli is expelled into the environment within fecal matter . The bacterium grows massively in fresh fecal matter under aerobic conditions for 3 days , but its numbers decline slowly afterwards .

                      The term monkey 's uncle , most notably seen in the idiom `` ( well ) I 'll be a monkey 's uncle '' , is used to express complete surprise , amazement or disbelief . It can also be used to acknowledge the impossibility of a situation , in the same way that `` pigs might fly '' is used . An example is if one says : `` I may agree that if two plus two equals five , then I am a monkey 's uncle '' . `` I 'll be a monkey 's uncle '' has been said to date from after 1925 , the date of the widely publicized Scopes Trial in the United States , where the term first appears . The Oxford English Dictionary 's earliest example is the phrase If that 's a joke I 'm a monkey 's uncle , from an Ohio newspaper on 8 February 1925 . It was originally a sarcastic remark made by creationists . The notion `` that ( people ) were descended from apes was considered blasphemous ... by Darwin 's contemporaries '' , and it was for this reason that the sarcastic phrase came into use .

                      In C plants , the first step in the light - independent reactions of photosynthesis involves the fixation of CO by the enzyme RuBisCO into 3 - phosphoglycerate . However , due to the dual carboxylase and oxygenase activity of RuBisCo , some part of the substrate is oxidized rather than carboxylated , resulting in loss of substrate and consumption of energy , in what is known as photorespiration . In order to bypass the photorespiration pathway , C plants have developed a mechanism to efficiently deliver CO to the RuBisCO enzyme . They utilize their specific leaf anatomy where chloroplasts exist not only in the mesophyll cells in the outer part of their leaves but in the bundle sheath cells as well . Instead of direct fixation to RuBisCO in the Calvin cycle , CO is incorporated into a 4 - carbon organic acid , which has the ability to regenerate CO in the chloroplasts of the bundle sheath cells . Bundle sheath cells can then utilize this CO to generate carbohydrates by the conventional C pathway .

                      Formal definitions , first devised in the early 19th century , are given below . Informally , a function f assigns an output f ( x ) to every input x . We say the function has a limit L at an input p : this means f ( x ) gets closer and closer to L as x moves closer and closer to p . More specifically , when f is applied to any input sufficiently close to p , the output value is forced arbitrarily close to L. On the other hand , if some inputs very close to p are taken to outputs that stay a fixed distance apart , we say the limit does not exist .

                      Political maneuvering was setting the stage for an official declaration of independence even while a document was being written to explain the decision . On June 11 , 1776 , Congress appointed a `` Committee of Five '' to draft a declaration , consisting of John Adams of Massachusetts , Benjamin Franklin of Pennsylvania , Thomas Jefferson of Virginia , Robert R. Livingston of New York , and Roger Sherman of Connecticut . The committee left no minutes , so there is some uncertainty about how the drafting process proceeded ; contradictory accounts were written many years later by Jefferson and Adams , too many years to be regarded as entirely reliable -- although their accounts are frequently cited . What is certain is that the committee discussed the general outline which the document should follow and decided that Jefferson would write the first draft . The committee in general , and Jefferson in particular , thought that Adams should write the document , but Adams persuaded the committee to choose Jefferson and promised to consult with him personally . Considering Congress 's busy schedule , Jefferson probably had limited time for writing over the next seventeen days , and likely wrote the draft quickly . He then consulted the others and made some changes , and then produced another copy incorporating these alterations . The committee presented this copy to the Congress on June 28 , 1776 . The title of the document was `` A Declaration by the Representatives of the United States of America , in General Congress assembled . ''

An average detective from a low crime precinct mutually despised by Sipowicz , who called him `` Dutch Boy '' in reference to a plaster marketing statue he once shot in the dark thinking it was a suspect with a gun . He threw his son out of the house when John Jr. decided to work at the 15th with Andy ; his partner and he later worked a case with Clark Jr. and Andy that revealed Clark Sr. 's by - the - book approach and hyper - sensitivity to his son being anything like Andy . ( In fact , Andy was much more the kind of detective Clark Jr. wanted to be , which is why he chose to transfer to the 15th when he earned a detective 's shield and pick of assignments . ) Clark Sr. later got busted for sleeping with a prostitute and let his son face the IAB accusation and potential discipline until Andy told him Clark Jr. was on the verge of being fired , which caused Clark Sr. to confess . After this , Clark Sr. began drinking heavily and became an IAB informant , which nearly ruined John 's career at the 15th . His actions helped lead to the campaign by Officer Laughlin against Clark Jr. , who finally told his father to stop making bad decisions on his behalf and stop drinking so much . A depressed Clark Sr. later committed suicide , which sent his son into a long depression of his own . Played by Joe Spano .

                      According to the Origination Clause of the United States Constitution , all bills for raising revenue , generally tax bills , must originate in the House of Representatives , similar to the Westminster system requirement that all money bills originate in the lower house . Traditionally , though , appropriation bills also originate in the House of Representatives . House appropriations bills begin with `` H.R. '' , meaning `` House of Representatives '' . In reference to revenue bills , the Constitution also states that the `` Senate may propose or concur with Amendments as on other Bills . '' As with revenue bills , the Senate and House each drafts and considers its own appropriation bill . The Senate then `` cuts - and - pastes , '' substituting the language of its version of a particular appropriation bill for the language of the House bill , then agrees to the bill as amended .

                      The Declaration was passed on July 2 with no opposing votes . A committee of five had drafted it to be ready when Congress voted on independence . John Adams , a leader in pushing for independence , had persuaded the committee to select Thomas Jefferson to compose the original draft of the document , which Congress edited to produce the final version . The Declaration was a formal explanation of why Congress had voted on July 2 to declare independence from Great Britain , more than a year after the outbreak of the American Revolutionary War . Adams wrote to his wife Abigail , `` The Second Day of July 1776 , will be the most memorable Epocha , in the History of America '' -- although Independence Day is actually celebrated on July 4 , the date that the wording of the Declaration of Independence was approved .

                      Life with Archie : The Married Life was based on the Archie Marries Veronica / Archie Marries Betty storyline , but was not a direct continuation on it . The series lasted from 2010 to 2014 , ending with 37 issues . Issues 1 - 35 contained two stories each , the first story was Archie Marries Veronica and the second one was Archie Marries Betty . The last two issues , on the other hand , were structured differently . Instead of having two stories both issues had one , but were twice as long as the others . Also , neither issue made it clear whether Archie was married to Betty or Veronica . Together both issues make up The Death of Archie storyline .

                      Judicial review is a process under which executive and ( in some countries ) legislative actions are subject to review by the judiciary . A court with judicial review power may invalidate laws and decisions that are incompatible with a higher authority ; an executive decision may be invalidated for being unlawful or a statute may be invalidated for violating the terms of a written constitution . Judicial review is one of the checks and balances in the separation of powers : the power of the judiciary to supervise the legislative and executive branches when the latter exceed their authority . The doctrine varies between jurisdictions , so the procedure and scope of judicial review may differ between and within countries .

                      Food is ingested through the mouth and when swallowed passes first into the pharynx and then into the esophagus . The esophagus is thus one of the first components of the digestive system and the gastrointestinal tract . After food passes through the esophagus , it enters the stomach . When food is being swallowed , the epiglottis moves backward to cover the larynx , preventing food from entering the trachea . At the same time , the upper esophageal sphincter relaxes , allowing a bolus of food to enter . Peristaltic contractions of the esophageal muscle push the food down the esophagus . These rhythmic contractions occur both as a reflex response to food that is in the mouth , and also as a response to the sensation of food within the esophagus itself . Along with peristalsis , the lower esophageal sphincter relaxes .

                      In the early 1800s , John Dalton used the concept of atoms to explain why elements always react in ratios of small whole numbers ( the law of multiple proportions ) . For instance , there are two types of tin oxide : one is 88.1 % tin and 11.9 % oxygen and the other is 78.7 % tin and 21.3 % oxygen ( tin ( II ) oxide and tin dioxide respectively ) . This means that 100g of tin will combine either with 13.5 g or 27g of oxygen . 13.5 and 27 form a ratio of 1 : 2 , a ratio of small whole numbers . This common pattern in chemistry suggested to Dalton that elements react in whole number multiples of discrete units -- in other words , atoms . In the case of tin oxides , one tin atom will combine with either one or two oxygen atoms .

                      At the Tehran Conference and the Yalta Conference , the Soviet Union promised to join its allies in the Pacific War in two to three months after victory in Europe . On August 8 , 1945 , three months to the day after the end of hostilities in Europe , and two days after the atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima , the Soviet Union declared war on Japan . Soviet troops advanced rapidly , and the US government became anxious that they would occupy the whole of Korea . On August 10 , 1945 two young officers -- Dean Rusk and Charles Bonesteel -- were assigned to define an American occupation zone . Working on extremely short notice and completely unprepared , they used a National Geographic map to decide on the 38th parallel . They chose it because it divided the country approximately in half but would place the capital Seoul under American control . No experts on Korea were consulted . The two men were unaware that forty years before , Japan and pre-revolutionary Russia had discussed sharing Korea along the same parallel . Rusk later said that had he known , he `` almost surely '' would have chosen a different line . The division placed sixteen million Koreans in the American zone and nine million in the Soviet zone . To the surprise of the Americans , the Soviet Union immediately accepted the division . The agreement was incorporated into General Order No. 1 ( approved on 17 August 1945 ) for the surrender of Japan .

                      ACC Sixth Man of the Year De'Andre Hunter broke his wrist in the ACC Tournament victory , and was announced to be out for the NCAA Tournament two days before it began . The injury led the New York Daily News to change their pick from Virginia winning the national championship to not advancing out of the Sweet Sixteen . UVA entered as the No. 1 overall seed , placed in the South regional , but suffered a historic upset in the first round to UMBC and became the first No. 1 seed to lose to a No. 16 seed since the field expanded to 64 teams in 1985 . The first round losses by No. 1 seed Virginia and No. 4 seed Arizona , and second round losses by No. 2 seed Cincinnati and No. 3 seed Tennessee , led to the South Region becoming the first ever to not advance any of its top four seeds to the Sweet Sixteen .

                      The theory of the objective correlative as it relates to literature was largely developed through the writings of the poet and literary critic T.S. Eliot , who is associated with the literary group called the New Critics . Helping define the objective correlative , Eliot 's essay `` Hamlet and His Problems '' , republished in his book The Sacred Wood : Essays on Poetry and Criticism discusses his view of Shakespeare 's incomplete development of Hamlet 's emotions in the play Hamlet . Eliot uses Lady Macbeth 's state of mind as an example of the successful objective correlative : `` The artistic ' inevitability ' lies in this complete adequacy of the external to the emotion ... . '' , as a contrast to Hamlet . According to Eliot , the feelings of Hamlet are not sufficiently supported by the story and the other characters surrounding him . The objective correlative 's purpose is to express the character 's emotions by showing rather than describing feelings as discussed earlier by Plato and referred to by Peter Barry in his book Beginning Theory : An Introduction to Literary and Cultural Theory as `` ... perhaps little more than the ancient distinction ( first made by Plato ) between mimesis and diegesis ... . '' ( 28 ) . According to Formalist critics , this action of creating an emotion through external factors and evidence linked together and thus forming an objective correlative should produce an author 's detachment from the depicted character and unite the emotion of the literary work . The `` occasion '' of E. Montale is a further form of correlative .

                      The iPhone 5S maintains a similar design to the iPhone 5 , with a 4 in ( 10 cm ) LCD multi-touch Retina display and a screen resolution of 640 × 1136 at 326 ppi . Its home button has been updated with a new flat design using a laser - cut sapphire cover surrounded by a metallic ring ; the button is no longer concave , nor does it contain the familiar squircle icon seen on previous models . The phone itself is 0.30 in ( 7.6 mm ) thick and weighs 112 grams ( 4.0 oz ) . The phone uses an aluminum composite frame . The device is available in three color finishes ; `` space - gray '' ( replacing black with slate trim on the iPhone 5 ) , white with silver trim , and white with gold trim . The iPhone 5S was the first iPhone to be available in gold color ; this decision was influenced by the fact that gold is seen as a popular sign of a luxury product among Chinese customers .

                      Because apoptosis can not stop once it has begun , it is a highly regulated process . Apoptosis can be initiated through one of two pathways . In the intrinsic pathway the cell kills itself because it senses cell stress , while in the extrinsic pathway the cell kills itself because of signals from other cells . Both pathways induce cell death by activating caspases , which are proteases , or enzymes that degrade proteins . The two pathways both activate initiator caspases , which then activate executioner caspases , which then kill the cell by degrading proteins indiscriminately .

                      As of 2015 -- 16 , there were still a significant number of customers who preferred the 4 - inch screen size of iPhone 5S , which remained the second-most popular iPhone after the iPhone 6 and ahead of the iPhone 6S. Apple stated in their event that they sold 30 million 4 - inch iPhones in 2015 , even as that form factor was succeeded as the flagship iPhone by the redesigned larger display 4.7 / 5.5 - inch iPhone 6 and 6 Plus back in September 2014 . Furthermore , the 5 and 5S design was regarded as `` long been the golden child of Apple phone design and a benchmark for phones in general '' ( with the 5S 's gold finish adding a premium touch to the 5 's already well - regarded look ) , while the succeeding 6 and 6S design was less critically acclaimed as it `` felt a little bit wrong , as though you were holding a slick $650 bar of soap '' . The iPhone 5 was described as `` elegance rooted in the way the aluminum and glass work together . It felt streamlined , yet substantial , which is different from iPhone 6 , which feels substantial in size alone . Plus , unlike the ubiquitous rounded corners of the 6 , iPhone 5 did n't really look like anything else on the market at the time '' . However , the iPhone 5 / 5S design was not suited to scaling up , in contrast to the iPhone 6 / 6S which could better accommodate the growing consumer trend towards larger screen sizes and indeed spawned the 6 / 6S Plus phablet models . When Apple discontinued the iPhone 5S , it was replaced by the iPhone SE which outwardly appears almost identical to the 5S even as the SE 's internal hardware has been upgraded significantly .

                      Bullets fired into the air usually fall back with terminal velocities much lower than their muzzle velocity when they leave the barrel of a firearm . Nevertheless , people can be injured , sometimes fatally , when bullets discharged into the air fall back down to the ground . Bullets fired at angles less than vertical are more dangerous as the bullet maintains its angular ballistic trajectory and is far less likely to engage in tumbling motion ; it therefore travels at speeds much higher than a bullet in free fall .

                      Paleomagnetism ( or palaeomagnetism in the United Kingdom ) is the study of the record of the Earth 's magnetic field in rocks , sediment , or archeological materials . Certain minerals in rocks lock - in a record of the direction and intensity of the magnetic field when they form . This record provides information on the past behavior of Earth 's magnetic field and the past location of tectonic plates . The record of geomagnetic reversals preserved in volcanic and sedimentary rock sequences ( magnetostratigraphy ) provides a time - scale that is used as a geochronologic tool . Geophysicists who specialize in paleomagnetism are called paleomagnetists .

                      Keep Calm and Carry On was a motivational poster produced by the British government in 1939 in preparation for World War II . The poster was intended to raise the morale of the British public , threatened with widely predicted mass air attacks on major cities . Although 2.45 million copies were printed , and although the Blitz did in fact take place , the poster was hardly ever publicly displayed and was little known until a copy was rediscovered in 2000 at Barter Books , a bookshop in Alnwick . It has since been re-issued by a number of private companies , and has been used as the decorative theme for a range of products .

According to the Woese system , introduced in 1990 , the tree of life consists of three domains : Archaea , Bacteria , and Eukarya . The first two are all prokaryotic microorganisms , or single - celled organisms whose cells have no nucleus . All life that has a nucleus and membrane - bound organelles , and multicellular organisms , is included in the Eukarya .

                      Perry is a surname with several distinct origins . In England deriving from the Old English pyrige ( pear tree ) , referring to one who dwells by a pear tree , while in Wales Perry , along with Parry , arose as patronymics , via a shortening of `` ap Harry '' ( son of Harry ) . There are some variants in the Romance or Romantic languages ( derived from the Latin ) : Pereira , Pereyra , Pereyro , Pereiro , Pereiros Pereire , Perera , Perer , Perero , Pereros ; the Norman French perrieur ( quarry ) , possibly referring to a quarryman . Perry was recorded as a surname from the late 16th century in villages near Colchester , Essex , East England , such as Lexden and Copford . Perry has some resemblance with the Portuguese common surname Pereira , which means pear tree in Portuguese language . Because of that , many Portuguese immigrants to the USA ( especially Massachusetts ) chose to `` Americanize '' their Pereira surname to Perry . The Italian surname , Perri , related to `` Peter '' , is also often Americanized to Perry .

In the twentieth century and the twenty - first they became entrepreneurs , necessary business revolutionaries , ruthlessly changing existing practices and demonstrating the protean nature of American capitalism . Their new corporations also transmuted and became manifestations of the `` Visible Hand , '' a managerial rationality that eliminated waste , increased productivity , and brought bourgeois values to replace those of financial buccaneers .

                      The world 's first movable type printing press technology for printing paper books was made of porcelain materials and was invented around AD 1040 in China during the Northern Song Dynasty by the inventor Bi Sheng ( 990 -- 1051 ) . Subsequently in 1377 , the world 's oldest extant movable metal print book , Jikji , was printed in Korea during the Goryeo dynasty . Because of this , the diffusion of both movable - type systems was , to some degree , limited to primarily East Asia , although various sporadic reports of movable type technology were brought back to Europe by Christian missionaries , traders and business people who were returning to Europe after having worked in China for several years and influenced the development of printing technology in Europe . Some of these medieval European accounts are still preserved in the library archives of the Vatican and Oxford University among many others . Around 1450 , Johannes Gutenberg introduced the metal movable - type printing press in Europe , along with innovations in casting the type based on a matrix and hand mould . The small number of alphabetic characters needed for European languages was an important factor . Gutenberg was the first to create his type pieces from an alloy of lead , tin , and antimony -- and these materials remained standard for 550 years .

                      Gametes ( sperm and ova ) are haploid cells . The haploid gametes produced by most organisms combine to form a zygote with n pairs of chromosomes , i.e. 2n chromosomes in total . The chromosomes in each pair , one of which comes from the sperm and one from the egg , are said to be homologous . Cells and organisms with pairs of homologous chromosomes are called diploid . For example , most animals are diploid and produce haploid gametes . During meiosis , sex cell precursors have their number of chromosomes halved by randomly `` choosing '' one member of each pair of chromosomes , resulting in haploid gametes . Because homologous chromosomes usually differ genetically , gametes usually differ genetically from one another .

                      The continental crust consists of lower density material such as the igneous rocks granite and andesite . Less common is basalt , a denser volcanic rock that is the primary constituent of the ocean floors . Sedimentary rock is formed from the accumulation of sediment that becomes buried and compacted together . Nearly 75 % of the continental surfaces are covered by sedimentary rocks , although they form about 5 % of the crust . The third form of rock material found on Earth is metamorphic rock , which is created from the transformation of pre-existing rock types through high pressures , high temperatures , or both . The most abundant silicate minerals on Earth 's surface include quartz , feldspars , amphibole , mica , pyroxene and olivine . Common carbonate minerals include calcite ( found in limestone ) and dolomite .

                      After Margaret Thatcher became Prime Minister in May 1979 , the legislation to implement the Right to Buy was passed in the Housing Act 1980 . Michael Heseltine , in his role as Secretary of State for the Environment , was in charge of implementing the legislation . Some 6,000,000 people were affected ; about one in three actually purchased their housing unit . Heseltine noted that `` no single piece of legislation has enabled the transfer of so much capital wealth from the state to the people '' . He said the right to buy had two main objectives : to give people what they wanted , and to reverse the trend of ever - increasing dominance of the state over the life of the individual .

                      Often , ticket booths are walk - up windows on the street , or are located inside restaurants and bakeries throughout a given Chinatown community , although it is not uncommon for tickets to be sold on the street directly . Some lines even simply collect cash payment after passengers have boarded the bus . However , tickets are often sold online , either by the bus companies themselves or by portals and print - outs of confirmation emails are used as tickets . Except in Boston , the lines rarely use stations of their own . Passengers are usually directed to wait along a given curbside for the arrival of the bus , although many companies offer waiting areas at or near the pickup points . Several bus stops are also near major hotels and in the parking areas of major Chinese supermarkets . In New York , several bus lines pick up passengers on a stretch of Forsyth Street at the foot of the Manhattan Bridge in the Little Fuzhou neighborhood within Manhattan 's Chinatown . Since 1998 , when the New York City Department of Transportation marked the strip a bus layover area , the sidewalk between Division Street and East Broadway has served as a de facto terminal for the Chinatown buses .

                      Scoring over 10,000 runs across a playing career in any format of cricket is considered a significant achievement . In the year 2001 , Sachin Tendulkar became the first player to score 10,000 runs in ODIs , while playing a match during the bi-lateral series against Australia at home . In the chase for achieving top scores , West Indies ' Desmond Haynes retired as the most prolific run - scorer in One Day Internationals ( ODIs ) , with a total of 8,648 runs in 1994 . The record stood for four years until it was broken by India 's Mohammed Azharuddin . Azharuddin remained the top - scorer in the format until his compatriot Sachin Tendulkar passed him in October 2000 . As of August 2016 , eleven players -- from six teams that are Full members of the International Cricket Council -- have scored more than 10,000 runs in ODIs . Four of these are from Sri Lanka and three from India . The rest are one player each from Pakistan , Australia , West Indies , and South Africa .

                      While the specific nucleotide sequence of a mRNA specifies which amino acids are incorporated into the protein product of the gene from which the mRNA is transcribed , the role of tRNA is to specify which sequence from the genetic code corresponds to which amino acid . The mRNA encodes a protein as a series of contiguous codons , each of which is recognized by a particular tRNA . One end of the tRNA matches the genetic code in a three - nucleotide sequence called the anticodon . The anticodon forms three base pairs with a codon in mRNA during protein biosynthesis . On the other end of the tRNA is a covalent attachment to the amino acid that corresponds to the anticodon sequence . Each type of tRNA molecule can be attached to only one type of amino acid , so each organism has many types of tRNA . Because the genetic code contains multiple codons that specify the same amino acid , there are several tRNA molecules bearing different anticodons which carry the same amino acid .

                      A transfer RNA ( abbreviated tRNA and formerly referred to as sRNA , for soluble RNA ) is an adaptor molecule composed of RNA , typically 76 to 90 nucleotides in length , that serves as the physical link between the mRNA and the amino acid sequence of proteins . tRNA does this by carrying an amino acid to the protein synthetic machinery of a cell ( ribosome ) as directed by a three - nucleotide sequence ( codon ) in a messenger RNA ( mRNA ) . As such , tRNAs are a necessary component of translation , the biological synthesis of new proteins in accordance with the genetic code .

In the late 19th and early 20th centuries , a debate over realism vs. antirealism was central to discussions of scientific method as powerful scientific theories extended beyond the realm of the observable , while in the mid-20th century some prominent philosophers argued against any universal rules of science at all .

                      Myofascial trigger points , also known as trigger points , are described as hyperirritable spots in the fascia surrounding skeletal muscle . They are associated with palpable nodules in taut bands of muscle fibers . They are a topic of ongoing controversy , as there is limited data to inform a scientific understanding of the phenomenon . Accordingly , a formal acceptance of myofascial `` knots '' as an identifiable source of pain is more common among bodyworkers , physical therapists , chiropractors , and osteopathic practitioners . Nonetheless , the concept of trigger points provides a framework which may be used to help address certain musculoskeletal pain .

                      Trigger points form only in muscles . They form as a local contraction in a small number of muscle fibers in a larger muscle or muscle bundle . These in turn can pull on tendons and ligaments associated with the muscle and can cause pain deep within a joint where there are no muscles . The integrated hypothesis theory states that trigger points form from excessive release of acetylcholine which produces sustained depolarization of muscle fibers . Indeed , the trigger point has an abnormal biochemical composition with elevated concentrations of acetylcholine , noradrenaline and serotonin and a lower pH . These sustained contractions of muscle sarcomeres compresses local blood supply restricting the energy needs of the local region . This crisis of energy produces sensitizing substances that interact with some nociceptive ( pain ) nerves traversing in the local region which in turn can produce localized pain within the muscle at the neuromuscular junction ( Travell and Simons 1999 ) . When trigger points are present in muscles there is often pain and weakness in the associated structures . These pain patterns in muscles follow specific nerve pathways and have been readily mapped to allow for identification of the causative pain factor . Many trigger points have pain patterns that overlap , and some create reciprocal cyclic relationships that need to be treated extensively to remove them .

                      It is an allusion to Samuel Taylor Coleridge 's poem The Rime of the Ancient Mariner ( 1798 ) . In the poem , an albatross starts to follow a ship -- being followed by an albatross was generally considered a sign of good luck . However , the titular mariner shoots the albatross with a crossbow , which is regarded as an act that will curse the ship ( which indeed suffers terrible mishaps ) . Even when they are too thirsty to speak , the ship 's crew let the mariner know through their glances that they blame his action for the curse . The albatross is then literally hung around the mariner 's neck by the crew to symbolize his guilt in killing the bird . Thus , the albatross can be both an omen of good or bad luck , as well as a metaphor for a burden to be carried as penance .

The form of government , however , was not the same as that before the French invasion , for the Mamluks were not reinstated . The pasha , and through him the Sultan , repeatedly tried to either ensnare them or to beguile them into submission .

It is one of the final phases of genetic recombination , which occurs in the pachytene stage of prophase I of meiosis during a process called synapsis . Synapsis begins before the synaptonemal complex develops and is not completed until near the end of prophase I. Crossover usually occurs when matching regions on matching chromosomes break and then reconnect to the other chromosome .

                      The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act ( FATCA ) is a 2010 United States federal law requiring all non-U.S. ( ' foreign ' ) financial institutions ( FFIs ) to search their records for customers with indicia of ' U.S. - person ' status , such as a U.S. place of birth , and to report the assets and identities of such persons to the U.S. Department of the Treasury . FATCA also requires such persons to self - report their non-U.S. financial assets annually to the Internal Revenue Service ( IRS ) on form 8938 , which is in addition to the older and further redundant requirement to self - report them annually to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network ( FinCEN ) on form 114 ( also known as ' FBAR ' ) . Like U.S. income tax law , FATCA applies to U.S. residents and also to U.S. citizens and green card holders residing in other countries .

                      There was a lengthy dispute over the leadership of the Senate during June and July 2009 . On June 8 , 2009 , Democrats Hiram Monserrate and Pedro Espada , Jr. , joined the 30 Republican members of the State Senate to attempt to issue a motion to replace current Majority Leader Malcolm Smith with Minority Leader Dean Skelos . Following the precedent of 1913 , the temporary presidency and the majority leadership would have been separated again under this scenario . Since the office of Lieutenant Governor fell vacant after Lt. Gov. David Paterson succeeded to the governorship upon Gov. Eliot Spitzer 's resignation , the majority leaders ( Bruno , Skelos and Smith ) have acted as lieutenant governors . The motions put forward on June 8 also sought to select Pedro Espada as Temporary President of the State Senate , which would have installed him as acting lieutenant governor . The Democrats have disputed the legitimacy of the motions put forward on June 8 . The New York State Senate has been providing a running update of the legal proceedings since June 11 , 2009 . The dispute ended July 9 , 2009 , when Senator Espada announced he would return to the Democratic caucus and take on the position of majority leader , while it was also announced that former majority leader Malcolm Smith had assumed the title of president pro tempore , and John Sampson would serve as Democratic conference leader with the understanding he would assume the presidency at an undetermined future date . Following the 2010 election and the Republican victory in the Senate , Senator Dean Skelos from Long Island served as both Temporary President and Majority Leader , but resigned in May 2015 in the midst of corruption charges . The current majority leader , or president , is John J. Flanagan .

                      The pars distalis , ( distal part ) , comprises the majority of the anterior pituitary and is where the bulk of pituitary hormone production occurs . The pars distalis contains two types of cells including chromophobe cells and chromophil cells . The chromophils can be further divided into acidophils ( alpha cells ) and basophils ( beta cells ) . These cells all together produce hormones of the anterior pituitary , and release them into the blood stream .

                      A number of Michelangelo 's works of painting , sculpture and architecture rank among the most famous in existence . His output in these fields was prodigious ; given the sheer volume of surviving correspondence , sketches and reminiscences , he is the best - documented artist of the 16th century . He sculpted two of his best - known works , the Pietà and David , before the age of thirty . Despite holding a low opinion of painting , he also created two of the most influential frescoes in the history of Western art : the scenes from Genesis on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in Rome , and The Last Judgment on its altar wall . His design of the Laurentian Library pioneered Mannerist architecture . At the age of 74 , he succeeded Antonio da Sangallo the Younger as the architect of St. Peter 's Basilica . He transformed the plan so that the western end was finished to his design , as was the dome , with some modification , after his death .

                      The core of a conventional optical fiber is a cylinder of glass or plastic that runs along the fiber 's length . The core is surrounded by a medium with a lower index of refraction , typically a cladding of a different glass , or plastic . Light travelling in the core reflects from the core - cladding boundary due to total internal reflection , as long as the angle between the light and the boundary is less than the critical angle . As a result , the fiber transmits all rays that enter the fiber with a sufficiently small angle to the fiber 's axis . The limiting angle is called the acceptance angle , and the rays that are confined by the core / cladding boundary are called guided rays .

SSSR ) , was a socialist state in Eurasia that existed from 1922 to 1991 . Nominally a union of multiple national Soviet republics , its government and economy were highly centralized . The country was a one - party state , governed by the Communist Party with Moscow as its capital in its largest republic , the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic . The Russian nation had constitutionally equal status among the many nations of the union but exerted de facto dominance in various respects . Other major urban centres were Leningrad , Kiev , Minsk , Alma - Ata and Novosibirsk . The Soviet Union was one of the five recognized nuclear weapons states and possessed the largest stockpile of weapons of mass destruction . It was a founding permanent member of the United Nations Security Council , as well as a member of the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe ( OSCE ) and the leading member of the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance ( CMEA ) and the Warsaw Pact .

                      Before vaccines , an average of 178,171 cases was reported in the U.S. , with peaks reported every two to five years ; more than 93 % of reported cases occurred in children under 10 years of age . The actual incidence was likely much higher . After vaccinations were introduced in the 1940s , pertussis incidence fell dramatically to approximately 1,000 by 1976 . Incidence rates have increased since 1980 . In 2015 , rates in the United States were 20,762 people .

                      B. pertussis was discovered in 1906 by Jules Bordet and Octave Gengou , who also developed the first serology and vaccine . Efforts to develop an inactivated whole - cell vaccine began soon after B. pertussis was cultured that year . In the 1920s , Louis W. Sauer developed a weak vaccine for whooping cough at Evanston Hospital ( Evanston , IL ) . In 1925 Danish physician Thorvald Madsen was the first to test a whole - cell vaccine on a wide scale .

McClure in multiple American newspapers and then published in the British publication Black and White in April 1892 and the following year as the title story in the collection , The Real Thing and Other Stories published by Macmillan . This story , often read as a parable , plays with the reality - illusion dichotomy that fascinated James , especially in the later stages of his career . For the illustrator who narrates the story , the genuine article proves all too useless for his commercial purposes . The story portrays the unfortunate victims of a society in which reality and representation are closely intertwined in ways that make art a difficult project to untangle the two .

                      Law 5 of the Laws of Cricket , as the rules of the game are known , state that the length of the bat may be no more than 38 in ( 965 mm ) , the width no more than 4.25 in ( 108 mm ) , the overall depth no more than 2.64 in ( 67 mm ) and edge no more than 1.56 in ( 40 mm ) . Bats typically weigh from 2 lb 7 oz to 3 lb ( 1.2 to 1.4 kg ) though there is no standard . Appendix B of the Laws of Cricket set out more precise specifications . This rule was introduced following the Monster Bat Incident of 1771 .

                      The history of the periodic table reflects over a century of growth in the understanding of chemical properties . The most important event in its history occurred in 1869 , when the table was published by Dmitri Mendeleev , who built upon earlier discoveries by scientists such as Antoine - Laurent de Lavoisier and John Newlands , but who is nevertheless generally given sole credit for its development .

                      As leader of the Yishuv , David Ben - Gurion was the first person to sign . The declaration was due to be signed by all 37 members of Moetzet HaAm . However , twelve members could not attend , eleven of them trapped in besieged Jerusalem and one abroad . The remaining 25 signatories present were called up in alphabetical order to sign , leaving spaces for those absent . Although a space was left for him between the signatures of Eliyahu Dobkin and Meir Vilner , Zerach Warhaftig signed at the top of the next column , leading to speculation that Vilner 's name had been left alone to isolate him , or to stress that even a communist agreed with the declaration . However , Warhaftig later denied this , stating that a space had been left for him ( as he was one of the signatories trapped in Jerusalem ) where a Hebraicised form of his name would have fitted alphabetically , but he insisted on signing under his actual name so as to honour his father 's memory and so moved down two spaces . He and Vilner would be the last surviving signatories , and remained close for the rest of their lives . Of the signatories , two were women ( Golda Meir ( Meyerson / Myerson ) and Rachel Cohen - Kagan ) .

                      In some countries , such as the United States , an ornamental key -- the `` Key to the City '' -- is presented to esteemed visitors , residents , or others whom the city wishes to honour . This practice is a variation on the Freedom of the City tradition , and has a similar symbolic meaning ; evoking medieval walled cities , the gates of which would be guarded during the day and locked at night , the key symbolises the freedom of the recipient to enter and leave the city at will , as a trusted friend of city residents .

                      In modern mapping , a topographic map is a type of map characterized by large - scale detail and quantitative representation of relief , usually using contour lines , but historically using a variety of methods . Traditional definitions require a topographic map to show both natural and man - made features . A topographic map is typically published as a map series , made up of two or more map sheets that combine to form the whole map . A contour line is a line connecting places of equal elevation .

                      The 2017 Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons ( ICAN ) `` for its work to draw attention to the catastrophic humanitarian consequences of any use of nuclear weapons and for its ground - breaking efforts to achieve a treaty - based prohibition on such weapons , '' according to the Norwegian Nobel Committee announcement on October 6 , 2017 . The award announcement acknowledged the fact that `` the world 's nine nuclear - armed powers and their allies '' neither signed nor supported the treaty - based prohibition known as the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons or nuclear ban treaty , yet in an interview Committee Chair Berit Reiss - Andersen told reporters that the award was intended to give `` encouragement to all players in the field '' to disarm . The award was hailed by civil society as well as governmental and intergovernmental representatives who support the nuclear ban treaty , but drew criticism from those opposed . At the Nobel Peace Prize award ceremony held in Oslo City Hall on December 10 , 2017 , Setsuko Thurlow , an 85 - year - old survivor of the 1945 atomic bombing of Hiroshima , and ICAN Executive Director Beatrice Fihn jointly received a medal and diploma of the award on behalf of ICAN and delivered the Nobel lecture .

                      The Cybermen have seen many redesigns and costume changes over Doctor Who 's long run . Over the years , the show and its many spin - offs in other media have also presented a number of varying origin stories for the species . In their first appearance , The Tenth Planet ( 1966 ) , they are explained as being the product of humans from Earth 's nearly identical `` twin planet '' of Mondas who upgraded themselves into cyborgs in a bid for self - preservation . Forty years later , `` The Age of Steel '' ( 2006 ) depicted the Cybermen 's separate emergence on a parallel universe version of Earth . Doctor Who audio dramas , novels , and comic books have also elaborated on the origins for the Cybermen , or presented alternative origin stories .

                      Exocrine glands are glands that produce and secrete substances onto an epithelial surface by way of a duct . Examples of exocrine glands include sweat , salivary , mammary , ceruminous , lacrimal , sebaceous , and mucous . Exocrine glands are one of two types of glands in the human body , the other being endocrine glands , which secrete their products directly into the bloodstream . The liver and pancreas are both exocrine and endocrine glands ; they are exocrine glands because they secrete products -- bile and pancreatic juice -- into the gastrointestinal tract through a series of ducts , and endocrine because they secrete other substances directly into the bloodstream .

                      The European colonization of the Americas describes the history of the settlement and establishment of control of the continents of the Americas by various European powers . Starting in either the 10th or 11th century , West Norse sailors explored and briefly settled on the shores of present - day Canada , according to Icelandic Sagas , but violent conflicts with the indigenous population ultimately led to the Norse abandoning those settlements .

                      The Tea Party was the culmination of a resistance movement throughout British America against the Tea Act , which had been passed by the British Parliament in 1773 . Colonists objected to the Tea Act because they believed that it violated their rights as Englishmen to `` No taxation without representation '' , that is , to be taxed only by their own elected representatives and not by a British parliament in which they were not represented . In addition , the well - connected East India Company had been granted competitive advantages over colonial tea importers , who resented the move and feared additional infringement on their business . Protesters had successfully prevented the unloading of taxed tea in three other colonies , but in Boston , embattled Royal Governor Thomas Hutchinson refused to allow the tea to be returned to Britain .

                      The stability , security , and predictability of British law and government enabled Hong Kong to flourish as a centre for international trade . In the colony 's first decade , the revenue from the opium trade was a key source of government funds . The importance of opium reduced over time , but the colonial government was dependent on its revenues until the Japanese occupation in 1941 . Although the largest businesses in the early colony were operated by British , American , and other expatriates , Chinese workers provided the bulk of the manpower to build a new port city .

                      Chymotrypsin is synthesized in the pancreas by protein biosynthesis as a precursor called chymotrypsinogen that is enzymatically inactive . Trypsin activates chymotrypsinogen by cleaving peptidic bonds in positions Arg15 - Ile16 and produces π - Chymotrypsin . In turn , aminic group ( - NH3 ) of the Ile16 residue interacts with the side chain of Glu194 , producing the `` oxyanion hole '' and the hydrophobic `` S1 pocket '' . Moreover , Chymotrypsin induces its own activation by cleaving in positions 14 - 15 , 146 - 147 and 148 - 149 , producing α - Chymotrypsin ( which is more active and stable than π - Chymotrypsin ) . The resulting molecule is a three - polypeptide molecule interconnected via disulfide bonds .

                      In vivo , chymotrypsin is a proteolytic enzyme ( Serine protease ) acting in the digestive systems of many organisms . It facilitates the cleavage of peptide bonds by a hydrolysis reaction , which despite being thermodynamically favorable occurs extremely slowly in the absence of a catalyst . The main substrates of chymotrypsin are peptide bonds in which the amino acid N - terminal to the bond is a tryptophan , tyrosine , phenylalanine , or leucine . Like many proteases , chymotrypsin will also hydrolyse amide bonds in vitro , a virtue that enabled the use of substrate analogs such as N - acetyl - L - phenylalanine p - nitrophenyl amide for enzyme assays .

                      Many popular customs associated with Christmas developed independently of the commemoration of Jesus ' birth , with certain elements having origins in pre-Christian festivals that were celebrated around the winter solstice by pagan populations who were later converted to Christianity . These elements , including the Yule log from Yule and gift giving from Saturnalia , became syncretized into Christmas over the centuries . The prevailing atmosphere of Christmas has also continually evolved since the holiday 's inception , ranging from a sometimes raucous , drunken , carnival - like state in the Middle Ages , to a tamer family - oriented and children - centered theme introduced in a 19th - century transformation . In fact , the celebration of Christmas was banned on more than one occasion within certain Protestant groups , such as the Puritans , due to concerns that it was too pagan or unbiblical .

                      The Beer Hall Putsch , also known as the Munich Putsch , and , in German , as the Hitlerputsch , Hitler - Ludendorff - Putsch , Bürgerbräu - Putsch or mostly Marsch auf die Feldherrnhalle , was a failed coup attempt by the Nazi Party ( NSDAP ) leader Adolf Hitler -- along with Generalquartiermeister Erich Ludendorff and other Kampfbund leaders -- to seize power in Munich , Bavaria , during 8 -- 9 November 1923 . About two thousand Nazis marched to the centre of Munich , where they confronted the police , which resulted in the death of 16 Nazis and four police officers . Hitler was not wounded during the clash , although he locked his left arm with the right arm of Max Erwin von Scheubner - Richter who , when he was shot and killed , pulled Hitler to the pavement with him . Hitler escaped immediate arrest and was spirited off to safety in the countryside . After two days , Hitler was arrested and charged with treason .

                      As of August 2013 , the network is not available on satellite providers DirecTV and Dish Network , which both maintain that Comcast has negotiated in bad faith during carriage discussions engaged between the parties . Particularly , Comcast demands the network be carried on more widely subscribed basic programming tiers , while contradictorily arguing that sports networks not owned by the company be carried only on a dedicated sports tier . The Trail Blazers are said to be frustrated and disappointed with Comcast 's conduct over their contract with CSN Northwest in this regard .

                      Based on a mark in an interior chamber naming the work gang and a reference to the fourth dynasty Egyptian Pharaoh Khufu , Egyptologists believe that the pyramid was built as a tomb over a 10 - to 20 - year period concluding around 2560 BC . Initially at 146.5 metres ( 481 feet ) , the Great Pyramid was the tallest man - made structure in the world for more than 3,800 years . Originally , the Great Pyramid was covered by limestone casing stones that formed a smooth outer surface ; what is seen today is the underlying core structure . Some of the casing stones that once covered the structure can still be seen around the base . There have been varying scientific and alternative theories about the Great Pyramid 's construction techniques . Most accepted construction hypotheses are based on the idea that it was built by moving huge stones from a quarry and dragging and lifting them into place .

                      Chymotrypsin ( EC 3.4. 21.1 , chymotrypsins A and B , alpha - chymar ophth , avazyme , chymar , chymotest , enzeon , quimar , quimotrase , alpha - chymar , alpha - chymotrypsin A , alpha - chymotrypsin ) is a digestive enzyme component of pancreatic juice acting in the duodenum where it performs proteolysis , the breakdown of proteins and polypeptides . Chymotrypsin preferentially cleaves peptide amide bonds where the side - chain of the amino acid N - terminal to the scissile amide bond ( the P position ) is a large hydrophobic amino acid ( tyrosine , tryptophan , and phenylalanine ) . These amino acids contain an aromatic ring in their sidechain that fits into a ' hydrophobic pocket ' ( the S position ) of the enzyme . It is activated in the presence of trypsin . The hydrophobic and shape complementarity between the peptide substrate P sidechain and the enzyme S binding cavity accounts for the substrate specificity of this enzyme . Chymotrypsin also hydrolyzes other amide bonds in peptides at slower rates , particularly those containing leucine and methionine at the P position .

                      In modern times , the Ides of March is best known as the date on which Julius Caesar was assassinated in 44 BC . Caesar was stabbed to death at a meeting of the Senate . As many as 60 conspirators , led by Brutus and Cassius , were involved . According to Plutarch , a seer had warned that harm would come to Caesar no later than the Ides of March . On his way to the Theatre of Pompey , where he would be assassinated , Caesar passed the seer and joked , `` The Ides of March are come '' , implying that the prophecy had not been fulfilled , to which the seer replied `` Aye , Caesar ; but not gone . '' This meeting is famously dramatised in William Shakespeare 's play Julius Caesar , when Caesar is warned by the soothsayer to `` beware the Ides of March . '' The Roman biographer Suetonius identifies the `` seer '' as a haruspex named Spurinna .

                      Easter eggs , also called Paschal eggs , are decorated eggs that are usually used as gifts on the occasion of Easter . As such , Easter eggs are common during the season of Eastertide ( Easter season ) . The oldest tradition is to use dyed and painted chicken eggs , but a modern custom is to substitute chocolate eggs wrapped in colourful foil , hand - carved wooden eggs , or plastic eggs filled with confectionery such as chocolate . However , real eggs continue to be used in Eastern European tradition . Although eggs , in general , were a traditional symbol of fertility and rebirth , in Christianity , for the celebration of Eastertide , Easter eggs symbolize the empty tomb of Jesus , from which Jesus resurrected . In addition , one ancient tradition was the staining of Easter eggs with the colour red `` in memory of the blood of Christ , shed as at that time of his crucifixion . '' This custom of the Easter egg can be traced to early Christians of Mesopotamia , and from there it spread into Russia and Siberia through the Orthodox Churches , and later into Europe through the Catholic and Protestant Churches . This Christian use of eggs may have been influenced by practices in `` pre-dynastic period in Egypt , as well as amid the early cultures of Mesopotamia and Crete '' .

                      Although the Justice League first appeared in season six 's `` Justice '' , each member had their own introduction and recurring storylines in the series prior to the formation of the team . The first member to appear on Smallville , other than Clark Kent ( Tom Welling ) , was Bart Allen ( Kyle Gallner ) , who was introduced in the season four episode `` Run '' . In the episode , Bart is the first person Clark discovers to have a superhuman ability -- being able to run at supersonic speeds -- that was not created from exposure to kryptonite . When Clark and Bart first meet , Bart is a pickpocket who saves Jonathan Kent ( John Schneider ) from being hit by a truck . Eventually , Clark convinces Bart to give up his life of crime . Arthur Curry ( Alan Ritchson ) , who has the ability to swim at superhuman speeds and create energy blasts through the water , is next to appear in the season five episode `` Aqua '' . Arthur arrives in Smallville to stop an underwater weapon developed by Lex Luthor ( Michael Rosenbaum ) , which is killing the surrounding ocean life . Arthur and Clark initially clash on Arthur 's tactics ; Arthur tries to blow up Lex 's lab , while Clark insists that they should simply talk to Lex face - to - face and ask him to stop . Eventually , Arthur and Clark locate and destroy the weapon outright . Season five also introduced Victor Stone ( Lee Thompson Young ) in the episode `` Cyborg '' . Here , it is revealed that Victor was mortally wounded in a car accident that also took the lives of his family , but Lex 's company , LuthorCorp , took Victor 's body to a research lab where they experimented on him -- ultimately replacing his bone skeleton with a metal one . Clark attempts to provide Victor with a safe haven after Victor escapes from Lex 's facility . Clark manages to convince Lex to stop hunting Victor , who eventually leaves Smallville with his girlfriend .

                      In physics , the Coriolis force is an inertial force that acts on objects that are in motion relative to a rotating reference frame . In a reference frame with clockwise rotation , the force acts to the left of the motion of the object . In one with anticlockwise rotation , the force acts to the right . Deflection of an object due to the Coriolis force is called the Coriolis effect . Though recognized previously by others , the mathematical expression for the Coriolis force appeared in an 1835 paper by French scientist Gaspard - Gustave de Coriolis , in connection with the theory of water wheels . Early in the 20th century , the term Coriolis force began to be used in connection with meteorology .

                      Egyptologists believe the pyramid was built as a tomb for the Fourth Dynasty Egyptian pharaoh Khufu ( often Hellenized as `` Cheops '' ) and was constructed over a 20 - year period . Khufu 's vizier , Hemiunu ( also called Hemon ) is believed by some to be the architect of the Great Pyramid . It is thought that , at construction , the Great Pyramid was originally 280 Egyptian Royal cubits tall ( 146.5 metres ( 480.6 ft ) ) , but with erosion and absence of its pyramidion , its present height is 138.8 metres ( 455.4 ft ) . Each base side was 440 cubits , 230.4 metres ( 755.9 ft ) long . The mass of the pyramid is estimated at 5.9 million tonnes . The volume , including an internal hillock , is roughly 2,500,000 cubic metres ( 88,000,000 cu ft ) .

                      Prior to and through the early Christian centuries , winter festivals -- especially those centered on the winter solstice -- were the most popular of the year in many European pagan cultures . Reasons included the fact that less agricultural work needed to be done during the winter , as well as an expectation of better weather as spring approached . Many modern Christmas customs have been directly influenced by such festivals , including :

                      In 1492 Christopher Columbus sailed from Spain on his first voyage with three ships , the Niña , the Pinta , and the flagship , Santa Maria , seeking a direct route to Asia . On 12 October 1492 Columbus reached an island in the Bahamas and claimed it for Spain , an event long regarded by Europeans as the ' discovery ' of America . This island was called Guanahani by the Lucayan , and San Salvador by the Spanish . The identity of the first American landfall by Columbus remains controversial , but many authors accept Samuel E. Morison 's identification of Columbus ' San Salvador as what was later called Watling ( or Watling 's ) Island . Its name has been officially changed to San Salvador . Columbus visited several other islands in the Bahamas before sailing to present - day Cuba and afterwards to Hispaniola .

This season takes place at Camp Wawanakwa , a fictional island located somewhere in Muskoka , Ontario where the season is based on a summer camp theme ( although a contestant is eliminated at the end of every episode ) . Like the whole series , this season is a competition to see which of the twenty - two contestants will survive and last the longest . This is because the contestants are brutally tortured along the way through the intense challenges they are given . Challenges are sometimes based on other reality shows like Fear Factor and Survivor . All of this is so that the winner of the season ( the one to last the longest on the island and not get eliminated ) , will win a small fortune of C $ 100,000 and cheesy fame . Eliminated contestants are sent packing toward the Dock of Shame and must ride the Boat of Losers off the island .

                      By the late 1960s `` classic rock '' period , a number of distinct rock music subgenres had emerged , including hybrids like blues rock , folk rock , country rock , raga rock , and jazz - rock , many of which contributed to the development of psychedelic rock , which was influenced by the countercultural psychedelic and hippie scene . New genres that emerged included progressive rock , which extended the artistic elements ; glam rock , which highlighted showmanship and visual style ; and the diverse and enduring subgenre of heavy metal , which emphasized volume , power , and speed . In the second half of the 1970s , punk rock reacted by producing stripped - down , energetic social and political critiques . Punk was an influence in the 1980s on new wave , post-punk and eventually alternative rock . From the 1990s alternative rock began to dominate rock music and break into the mainstream in the form of grunge , Britpop , and indie rock . Further fusion subgenres have since emerged , including pop punk , electronic rock , rap rock , and rap metal , as well as conscious attempts to revisit rock 's history , including the garage rock / post-punk and synth - pop revivals at the beginning of the 2000s .

                      The dynasty was founded by the Jurchen Aisin Gioro clan in Manchuria . In the late sixteenth century , Nurhaci , originally a Ming vassal , began organizing `` Banners '' , military - social units that included Jurchen , Han Chinese , and Mongol elements . Nurhaci formed the Jurchen clans into a unified entity , which he renamed as the Manchus . By 1636 , his son Hong Taiji began driving Ming forces out of Liaodong and declared a new dynasty , the Qing . In 1644 , peasant rebels led by Li Zicheng conquered the Ming capital , Beijing . Rather than serve them , Ming general Wu Sangui made an alliance with the Manchus and opened the Shanhai Pass to the Banner Armies led by the regent Prince Dorgon , who defeated the rebels and seized the capital . Resistance from the Southern Ming and the Revolt of the Three Feudatories led by Wu Sangui extended the conquest of China proper for nearly four decades and was not completed until 1683 under the Kangxi Emperor ( r . 1661 -- 1722 ) . The Ten Great Campaigns of the Qianlong Emperor from the 1750s to the 1790s extended Qing control into Inner Asia . The early rulers maintained their Manchu ways , and while their title was Emperor , they used `` Bogd khaan '' to the Mongols and they were patrons of Tibetan Buddhism . They governed using Confucian styles and institutions of bureaucratic government and retained the imperial examinations to recruit Han Chinese to work under or in parallel with Manchus . They also adapted the ideals of the tributary system in dealing with neighboring territories .

                      Empiricism is a theory that states that knowledge comes only or primarily from sensory experience . It is one of several views of epistemology , the study of human knowledge , along with rationalism and skepticism . Empiricism emphasizes the role of empirical evidence in the formation of ideas , over the idea of innate ideas or traditions ; empiricists may argue however that traditions ( or customs ) arise due to relations of previous sense experiences .

                      The Dictionary of Greek and Roman Antiquities of Sir William Smith claims that the scythe , known in Latin as the falx foenaria as opposed to the sickle , the falx messoria , was used by the ancient Romans. According to ancient Greek mythology it was believed that Gaea the Greek goddess mother of Titans gave ' a sickle was made out of the strongest metal ' to her youngest son ' Kronos ' who is also youngest of Titans ( also known as God of Harvest ) to seek vengeance against her Husband Ouranos for Torturing their oldest sons . To illustrate this , Smith cites an image of Saturn holding a scythe , from an ancient Italian cameo . The Grim Reaper and the Greek Titan Cronus were often depicted carrying or wielding a scythe . According to Jack Herer and `` Flesh of The Gods '' ( Emboden , W.A. , Jr. , Praeger Press , NY , 1974 . ) ; the ancient Scythians grew hemp and harvested it with a hand reaper that we still call a scythe .

                      In population dynamics and population ecology , overshoot occurs when a population temporarily exceeds the long term carrying capacity of its environment . The environment usually has mechanisms in place to prevent overshoot . For example , plants are only able to regenerate and regrow a few times after being consumed before completely dying off . The consequence of overshoot is called a collapse , a crash or a die - off in which there is a decline in population density . The entire sequence or trajectory undergone by the population and its environment together is often termed ' overshoot - and - collapse ' .

This work became part of the Manhattan Project , a massive secret US government military project to make enriched uranium by building large reactors to breed plutonium for use in the first nuclear weapons . The US tested atom bombs and eventually these weapons were used to attack the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki .

                      Cone cells , or cones , are one of three types of photoreceptor cells in the retina of mammalian eyes ( e.g. the human eye ) . They are responsible for color vision and function best in relatively bright light , as opposed to rod cells , which work better in dim light . Cone cells are densely packed in the fovea centralis , a 0.3 mm diameter rod - free area with very thin , densely packed cones which quickly reduce in number towards the periphery of the retina . There are about six to seven million cones in a human eye and are most concentrated towards the macula . The commonly cited figure of six million cone cells in the human eye was found by Osterberg in 1935 . Oyster 's textbook ( 1999 ) cites work by Curcio et al. ( 1990 ) indicating an average close to 4.5 million cone cells and 90 million rod cells in the human retina .

                      The United Kingdom , Canada , and the USSR proceeded to research and develop nuclear industries over the course of the late 1940s and early 1950s . Electricity was generated for the first time by a nuclear reactor on December 20 , 1951 , at the EBR - I experimental station near Arco , Idaho , which initially produced about 100 kW . Work was also strongly researched in the US on nuclear marine propulsion , with a test reactor being developed by 1953 ( eventually , the USS Nautilus , the first nuclear - powered submarine , would launch in 1955 ) . In 1953 , US President Dwight Eisenhower gave his `` Atoms for Peace '' speech at the United Nations , emphasizing the need to develop `` peaceful '' uses of nuclear power quickly . This was followed by the 1954 Amendments to the Atomic Energy Act which allowed rapid declassification of US reactor technology and encouraged development by the private sector .

                      A subdural hematoma ( SDH ) , is a type of hematoma , usually associated with traumatic brain injury . Blood gathers between the inner layer of the dura mater and the arachnoid mater . Usually resulting from tears in bridging veins which cross the subdural space , subdural hemorrhages may cause an increase in intracranial pressure ( ICP ) , which can cause compression of and damage to delicate brain tissue . Subdural hematomas are often life - threatening when acute . Chronic subdural hematomas , however , have a better prognosis if properly managed .

Ochoa established the first El Pollo Loco restaurant in Guasave , Sinaloa , Mexico , in the mid-1970s , and then expanded his chain into the United States in 1980 . Ochoa then sold his U.S. restaurants in 1983 , which became El Pollo Loco , Inc. , while keeping the ones in Mexico , which became El Pollo Loco , S.A. de C.V. Both companies have since occupied non-overlapping global territories , and have offered different fare .

                      The relationship between some gut flora and humans is not merely commensal ( a non-harmful coexistence ) , but rather a mutualistic relationship . Some human gut microorganisms benefit the host by fermenting dietary fiber into short - chain fatty acids ( SCFAs ) , such as acetic acid and butyric acid , which are then absorbed by the host . Intestinal bacteria also play a role in synthesizing vitamin B and vitamin K as well as metabolizing bile acids , sterols , and xenobiotics . The systemic importance of the SCFAs and other compounds they produce are like hormones and the gut flora itself appears to function like an endocrine organ , and dysregulation of the gut flora has been correlated with a host of inflammatory and autoimmune conditions .

                      Connective tissue ( CT ) is one of the four basic types of animal tissue , along with epithelial tissue , muscle tissue , and nervous tissue . It develops from the mesoderm . Connective tissue is found in between other tissues everywhere in the body , including the nervous system . In the central nervous system , the three outer membranes ( the meninges ) that envelop the brain and spinal cord are composed of connective tissue . They support and protect the body . All connective tissue consists of three main components : fibers ( elastic and collagenous fibers ) , ground substance and cells . Not all authorities include blood or lymph as connective tissue because they lack the fiber component . All are immersed in the body water .

                      The Sun is about halfway through its main - sequence stage , during which nuclear fusion reactions in its core fuse hydrogen into helium . Each second , more than four million tonnes of matter are converted into energy within the Sun 's core , producing neutrinos and solar radiation . At this rate , the Sun has so far converted around 100 times the mass of Earth into energy , about 0.03 % of the total mass of the Sun . The Sun will spend a total of approximately 10 billion years as a main - sequence star . The Sun is gradually becoming hotter during its time on the main sequence , because the helium atoms in the core occupy less volume than the hydrogen atoms that were fused . The core is therefore shrinking , allowing the outer layers of the Sun to move closer to the centre and experience a stronger gravitational force , according to the inverse - square law . This stronger force increases the pressure on the core , which is resisted by a gradual increase in the rate at which fusion occurs . This process speeds up as the core gradually becomes denser . It is estimated that the Sun has become 30 % brighter in the last 4.5 billion years . At present , it is increasing in brightness by about 1 % every 100 million years .

                      The Chinese character for umbrella is 傘 ( sǎn ) and is a pictograph resembling the modern umbrella in design . Some investigators have supposed that its invention was first created by tying large leaves to bough - like ribs ( the branching out parts of an umbrella ) . Others assert that the idea was probably derived from the tent , which remains in an unaltered form to the present day . However , the tradition existing in China is that it originated in standards and banners waving in the air , hence the use of the umbrella was often linked to high - ranking ( though not necessarily royalty ) in China . On at least one occasion , twenty - four umbrellas were carried before the Emperor when he went out hunting . The umbrella served in this case as a defense against rain rather than sun . The Chinese design was later brought to Japan via Korea and also introduced to Persia and the Western world via the Silk Road . The Chinese and Japanese traditional parasol , often used near temples , remains similar to the original ancient Chinese design .

                      In Poland , prima aprilis ( `` 1 April '' in Latin ) as a day of jokes is a centuries - long tradition . It is a day in which many jokes are told ; various hoaxes -- sometimes very sophisticated -- are prepared by people , media ( which often cooperate to make the `` information '' more credible ) and even public institutions . Serious activities are usually avoided , and generally every word said on April 1st can be a lie , or a joke . The conviction for this is so strong that the Polish anti-Turkish alliance with Leopold I signed on April 1 , 1683 , was backdated to March 31 . However , for some in Poland prima aprilis ends at noon of April 1st , and prima aprilis jokes after that hour are considered inappropriate and not classy .

                      Thomas `` Tom '' Robinson is an African - American who is put on trial for the rape of a white woman , Mayella Ewell . Atticus is assigned to defend him , and stands up to a lynch mob intent on exacting their own justice against him before the trial begins . Tom 's left arm is crippled and useless , the result of an accident with a cotton gin when he was a child . Atticus uses this fact as the cornerstone of his defense strategy , pointing out that the nature of Mayella 's facial injuries strongly suggest a left - handed assailant . Tom testifies that he had frequently helped Mayella with household chores because he felt sorry for her and the family 's difficult life - a statement that shocks the all - white , male jury . Despite Atticus ' skilled defense , the jury 's racial prejudices lead them to find Tom guilty . Atticus plans to appeal the verdict , but before he can do so , Tom is shot and killed while trying to escape the prison where he is being held . Tom Robinson is played by Brock Peters .

                      Naval prefixes came into use as abbreviations for longer titles , such as `` His / Her Majesty 's Ship '' in the British Royal Navy , abbreviated `` H.M.S. '' and then `` HMS '' . Earlier uses often included the type of vessel , as for instance `` U.S.F. '' ( `` United States Frigate '' ) for frigates of the United States Navy , that were eliminated by President Theodore Roosevelt 's Executive order of 1907 making `` United States Ship '' ( USS ) the standard for the Navy 's commissioned ships while in commission . In the United States Navy that prefix officially only applies while the ship is in active commission , with only the name used before or after a period of commission and for all vessels `` in service '' rather than commissioned status . Today the common practice is to use a single prefix for all warships of a nation 's navy , and other prefixes for auxiliaries and ships of allied services , such as coast guards .

                      The history of chocolate in Spain is part of the culinary history of Spain as understood since the 16th century , when the colonization of the Americas began and the cocoa plant was discovered in regions of Mesoamerica , until the present . After the conquest of Mexico , cocoa as a commodity travelled by boat from the port of Nueva España to the Spanish coast . The first such voyage to Europe occurred at an unknown date in the 1520s . However it was only in the 17th century that regular trade began from the port of Veracruz , opening a maritime trade route that would supply the new demand from Spain , and later from other European countries .

                      Heart development refers to the prenatal development of the human heart . This begins with the formation of two endocardial tubes which merge to form the tubular heart , also called the primitive heart tube , that loops and septates into the four chambers and paired arterial trunks that form the adult heart . The heart is the first functional organ in vertebrate embryos , and in the human , beats spontaneously by week 4 of development .

                      A period in the periodic table is one of the horizontal rows , all of those elements have the same number of electron shells . Going across a period , each element has one more proton and is less metallic than its predecessor . Arranged this way , groups of elements in the same column have similar chemical and physical properties , reflecting the periodic law . For example , the alkali metals lie in the first column ( group 1 ) and share similar properties , such as high reactivity and the tendency to lose one electron to arrive at a noble - gas electronic configuration . As of 2016 a total of 118 elements have been discovered and confirmed .

                      The Seattle Center , including the Seattle Center Monorail and the Space Needle , serve as backdrops for several scenes in the film . Security officers pursue Presley and the girl through the fountains at what is now the Pacific Science Center . The hitchhiking scene with Elvis and Gary Lockwood was filmed near Camarillo , California , as were some of the flying scenes . The entire hitchhiking scene to the point where they are both picked up by Kam Tong and Vicky Tiu Cayetano in the truck is easily recognizable as 5th Street near Pleasant Valley Road on the South side of Camarillo . While The Elvis Encyclopedia believes that the Wilburton Trestle was shown in the movie , further evidence points to a different location . It is actually a trestle over the White River between Enumclaw and Buckley , now demolished . The view in the movie was taken at the intersection of Mud Mountain Road and Highway 410 , looking southeasterly . Mount Rainier is visible in the background , which is n't seen at that angle from the Wilburton Trestle . The Wilburton Trestle is actually bigger than the White River Trestle , at six sections high . The trestle pictured in the movie is only four sections high at the road crossing .

                      The axons of the tract cells cross over ( decussate ) to the other side of the spinal cord via the anterior white commissure , and to the anterolateral corner of the spinal cord ( hence the spinothalamic tract being part of the anterolateral system ) . Decussation usually occurs 1 - 2 spinal nerve segments above the point of entry . The axons travel up the length of the spinal cord into the brainstem , specifically the rostral ventromedial medulla .

                      In the 1740s , the established Anglican church had about 70 parish priests around the colony . There was no bishop , and indeed , there was fierce political opposition to having a bishop in the colony . The Anglican priests were supervised directly by the Bishop of London . Each county court gave tax money to the local vestry , composed of prominent laymen . The vestry provided the priest a glebe of 200 or 300 acres ( 1.2 km ) , a house , and perhaps some livestock . The vestry paid him an annual salary of 16,000 pounds - of - tobacco , plus 20 shillings for every wedding and funeral . While not poor , the priests lived modestly and their opportunities for improvement were slim .

                      In political philosophy , limited government is where the government is empowered by law from a starting point of having no power , or where governmental power is restricted by law , usually in a written constitution . It is a key concept in the history of liberalism . The United States Constitution presents an example of the federal government not possessing any power except what is delegated to it by the Constitution - with the Tenth Amendment to the United States Constitution specifically stating that powers not specifically delegated to the federal government is reserved for the people and the states . The Magna Carta and the United States Constitution also represents important milestones in the limiting of governmental power . The earliest use of the term limited government dates back to King James VI and I in the late 16th century . Limited government put into practice often involves the protection of individual liberty from government intrusion .

                      A covalent bond , also called a molecular bond , is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms . These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs , and the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms , when they share electrons , is known as covalent bonding . For many molecules , the sharing of electrons allows each atom to attain the equivalent of a full outer shell , corresponding to a stable electronic configuration .

                      Huxley said that Brave New World was inspired by the utopian novels of H.G. Wells , including A Modern Utopia ( 1905 ) and Men Like Gods ( 1923 ) . Wells 's hopeful vision of the future 's possibilities gave Huxley the idea to begin writing a parody of the novel , which became Brave New World . He wrote in a letter to Mrs. Arthur Goldsmith , an American acquaintance , that he had `` been having a little fun pulling the leg of H.G. Wells , '' but then he `` got caught up in the excitement of ( his ) own ideas . '' Unlike the most popular optimist utopian novels of the time , Huxley sought to provide a frightening vision of the future . Huxley referred to Brave New World as a `` negative utopia '' , somewhat influenced by Wells 's own The Sleeper Awakes ( dealing with subjects like corporate tyranny and behavioural conditioning ) and the works of D.H.

                      In U.S. politics , general elections are elections held at any level ( e.g. city , county , congressional district , state ) that involve competition between at least two parties . General elections occur every two to six years ( depending on the positions being filled with most positions good for four years ) and include the presidential election , but unlike parliamentary systems the term can also refer to special elections that fill out positions prematurely vacated by the previous office holder ( e.g. through death , resignation , etc . ) . Some parallels can be drawn between the general election in parliamentary systems and the biennial elections determining all House seats , although there is no analogue to `` calling early elections '' in the U.S. , and the members of the elected U.S. Senate face elections of only one - third at a time at two - year intervals including during a general election .

                      In `` 200 '' , it was revealed that JJ 's transfer was a backstop and that she was actually put on a task force in the Middle East with Mateo Cruz ( who later became the section chief of the BAU following Strauss 's death ) . During this time , she witnessed a mission she had pushed for fail and discovered one of the task force 's informants dead . In February 2011 , while overseas , she discovered that she was pregnant . However , in April 2011 , following the events of `` Lauren '' , during an attack on the task force , she was wounded and miscarried the baby . She did n't initially tell Will of the pregnancy , and it remained a secret between her and Cruz . In `` The Forever People '' , when she starts showing signs of PTSD , Reid calls her on it , and he tries to help her and talk to her . She eventually admits she had a miscarriage due to the attack on her convoy , and asks him to keep it between them .

                      The letter was written to the church at Philippi , one of the earliest churches to be founded in Europe . They were very attached to Paul , just as he was very fond of them . Of all the churches , their contributions ( which Paul gratefully acknowledges ) are among the only ones he accepts . ( Acts 20 : 33 -- 35 ; 2 Cor. 11 : 7 -- 12 ; 2 Thess. 3 : 8 ) . The generosity of the Philippians comes out very conspicuously ( Phil . 4 : 15 ) . `` This was a characteristic of the Macedonian missions , as 2 Cor. 8 and 9 amply and beautifully prove . It is remarkable that the Macedonian converts were , as a class , very poor ( 2 Cor. 8 : 2 ) , though the very first converts were of all classes ( Acts 16 ) ; and the parallel facts , their poverty and their open - handed support of the great missionary and his work , are deeply harmonious . '' ( Moule ) .

                      In `` The Crossing '' , JJ told Will that she was pregnant with his child . He later asked her to marry him , and indicated that he was willing to give up his detective 's shield in order to help take care of the baby and allow JJ to continue to do her job , though he was worried about her safety and the safety of their child . JJ later told Hotch she had found a temporary replacement for the duration of her maternity leave , and soon after gave birth to a baby boy named Henry . Will transfers to the MPDC , and the family live together in Washington . In later seasons , toddler Henry is portrayed by actress A.J. Cook 's real - life son Mekhai Andersen . JJ and Will named Reid and Technical Analyst Penelope Garcia as Henry 's godparents . When JJ returned from maternity leave , she and Will had exchanged rings with Henry 's birthstone , but did not seem to be officially engaged , as she wore her ring on her right hand , not the left . In the season seven finale , JJ tearfully asked Will to propose to her again , and they married the following evening in a small ceremony in David Rossi 's backyard .

                      Habib ( Arabic : حبيب ‎ , translit . ḥabīb ; Arabic pronunciation : ( ħabiːb ) ) , sometimes written as Habeeb , is an Arabic masculine given name and occasional surname with the meaning `` beloved '' . The name is popular throughout the Muslim World , though particularly in the Middle East and Africa . In other countries , especially in Yemen and Southeast Asian countries such as Brunei , Singapore , Indonesia and Malaysia , it is an honorific to address a Muslim scholar of Sayyid ( a descendant of Muhammad ) families . It is important to note that the name , as is the case with other Arabic names , is not confined to Muslims . Notable examples of Christian individuals named Habib include ' Habib the Deacon ' and Gabriel Habib and the Philosopher Habib .

                      The phrase `` Bye , Felicia '' ( actually spelled `` Felisha '' in the cast listing ) came from a scene in the American stoner buddy crime comedy film Friday ( 1995 ) . According to Ice Cube , who starred in the film and co-wrote its script , `` Bye , Felicia '' is `` the phrase ' to get anyone out of your face ' , '' and , as it was used in the Friday scene , is generally intended as a dismissive kiss - off .

                      Since 1718 , transportation to the American colonies had been a penalty for various offences in Britain , with approximately one thousand convicts transported per year across the Atlantic . Forced to find an alternative location after the loss of the Thirteen Colonies in 1783 , the British government turned to the newly discovered lands of Australia . The western coast of Australia had been discovered for Europeans by the Dutch explorer Willem Janszoon in 1606 and was later named New Holland by the Dutch East India Company , but there was no attempt to colonise it . In 1770 James Cook discovered the eastern coast of Australia while on a scientific voyage to the South Pacific Ocean , claimed the continent for Britain , and named it New South Wales . In 1778 , Joseph Banks , Cook 's botanist on the voyage , presented evidence to the government on the suitability of Botany Bay for the establishment of a penal settlement , and in 1787 the first shipment of convicts set sail , arriving in 1788 . Britain continued to transport convicts to New South Wales until 1840 . The Australian colonies became profitable exporters of wool and gold , mainly because of gold rushes in the colony of Victoria , making its capital Melbourne for a time the richest city in the world and the second largest city ( after London ) in the British Empire .

                      The non-rebreather mask is utilized for patients with physical trauma , chronic airway limitation , cluster headache , smoke inhalation , and carbon monoxide poisoning , or any other patients who require high - concentration oxygen , but do not require breathing assistance . Patients uncomfortable with having a mask on their face , such as those with claustrophobia , or patients with injuries to the mouth are more likely to benefit from a nasal cannula , or passive ( `` blow - by '' ) oxygen . Patients who are unable to breathe on their own would require invasive or noninvasive mechanical ventilation .

                      Animals are divided by body plan into vertebrates and invertebrates . Vertebrates -- fishes , amphibians , reptiles , birds , and mammals -- have a vertebral column ( spine ) ; invertebrates do not . All vertebrates and most invertebrates are bilaterally symmetrical ( Bilateria ) . Invertebrates include arthropods , molluscs , roundworms , ringed worms , flatworms , and other phyla in Ecdysozoa and Spiralia . Echinoderm larvae are initially bilaterally symmetrical , but later as adults develop radial symmetry ; Cnidarians are radially symmetrical ; ctenophores are biradially symmetrical ; and sponges have no symmetry .

                      The events in the poem take place over most of the sixth century , after the Anglo - Saxons had started their journey to England and before the beginning of the seventh century , a time when the Anglo - Saxons were either newly arrived or were still in close contact with their Germanic kinsmen in Northern Germany . The poem may have been brought to England by people of Geatish origins . Many suggest that Beowulf was first composed in the 7th century at Rendlesham in East Anglia , that the Sutton Hoo ship - burial also shows close connections with Scandinavia , and that the East Anglian royal dynasty , the Wuffingas , may have been descendants of the Geatish Wulfings . Others have associated this poem with the court of King Alfred the Great or with the court of King Cnut the Great .

                      Daenerys Targaryen ( season 1 -- present ) portrayed by Emilia Clarke . Daenerys Targaryen is the exiled princess of the Targaryen dynasty . Also called `` the Stormborn '' , she and her brother Viserys were smuggled to Essos during the end of Robert 's Rebellion . For seventeen years , she has been under the care of Viserys , whom she fears , as he is abusive to her whenever she displeases him . In exchange for an army , Viserys marries her to the powerful Dothraki warlord Khal Drogo , making her a Khaleesi , a queen of the Dothraki . Daenerys is at first afraid of her new husband but after learning the Dothraki language , she manages to get past their barriers . She begins to understand him and genuinely falls in love with him after learning Drogo is an intelligent leader and a kind man . After embracing the Dothraki culture , she becomes stronger and rebels against her brother . She later becomes pregnant with Drogo 's son who is prophesied by the Dothraki to be the `` Stallion Who Mounts the World '' . After her brother 's death and an assassination attempt by Robert Baratheon , Drogo vows to Daenerys that he will conquer the Seven Kingdoms for her and their unborn son . However , during their journey Drogo suffers from blood poisoning due to an infected wound incurred during a fight with a Dothraki tribesman . Daenerys is forced to seek the help of healer Mirri Maz Duur to save his life using blood magic . Mirri tricks Daenerys by using her unborn son 's life as a sacrifice to heal Drogo , leaving him in a permanent catatonic state , and forcing Daenerys to end her husband 's life . Losing both her husband and son , Daenerys punishes Mirri by having her burnt at the stake . She also lays the three dragon eggs she received as a wedding gift onto Khal Drogo 's body , then steps into the burning funeral pyre . After the fire extinguishes itself , the Khaleesi and three baby dragons , named Drogon , Rhaegal , and Viserion , are found alive and unharmed . Daenerys takes the baby dragons and the remaining tribe to gather new allies and reclaim the Iron Throne . She becomes the first female Dothraki leader . In Season 2 , she is lost in the Red Waste , a stretch of barren land . She and her khalasar eventually make it to Qarth , where the nobles are more interested in her dragons than her conquering Westeros . When her dragons are stolen by Pyat Pree , she goes into the House of the Undying and retrieves them , killing Pyat Pree . In the second season 's finale , she imprisons her host Xaro Xoan Daxos for having helped Pyat Pree . Her horde loot Xaro 's mansion to buy a ship . Daenerys travels from Qarth to Astapor , a city in Slaver 's Bay , where she negotiates the purchase of elite eunuch soldiers called the Unsullied . She also meets the famed knight Ser Barristan Selmy , and accepts him into her queensguard . On her departure from the city , she frees the slaves and has Drogon torch its elders . By the end of Season 3 , although her power has not yet been tested , she has acquired the loyalty of tens of thousands of freed slaves from Astapor and Yunkai , her remaining Dothraki brethren ( and two former Westerosi soldiers whom she encountered through the Dothraki , who advise her ) 2,000 ' Second Sons ' cavalrymen , 8,000 ' Unsullied ' elite infantry , and three rapidly growing dragons . The stay in Slaver 's Bay has made her question her motives , however , and she takes up the cause of ending slavery as well , donning the honorific `` Breaker of Chains '' as the slaves hold her to the sky , praising her as their Mhysa , or `` Mother '' . Daenerys later frees the slaves from Meereen , the last of the slave cities in Slaver 's Bay , but realizes that she is slowly losing control of her dragons , especially when Drogon shows signs of aggression towards her when she tries to break up a fight between them over food . Aware that she does not have enough men to conquer Westeros just yet , Daenerys resolves to remain in Slaver 's Bay and rule as Queen for the time being . She eventually learns of Jorah 's original purpose , which was to spy on her for Robert Baratheon , and orders him to leave Meereen +

                      Freshwater algal blooms are the result of an excess of nutrients , particularly some phosphates . The excess of nutrients may originate from fertilizers that are applied to land for agricultural or recreational purposes . They may also originate from household cleaning products containing phosphorus . These nutrients can then enter watersheds through water runoff . Excess carbon and nitrogen have also been suspected as causes . Presence of residual sodium carbonate acts as catalyst for the algae to bloom by providing dissolved carbon dioxide for enhanced photosynthesis in the presence of nutrients .

                      The word autumn comes from the ancient Etruscan root autu - and has within it connotations of the passing of the year . It was borrowed by the neighbouring Romans , and became the Latin word autumnus . After the Roman era , the word continued to be used as the Old French word autompne ( automne in modern French ) or autumpne in Middle English , and was later normalised to the original Latin . In the Medieval period , there are rare examples of its use as early as the 12th century , but by the 16th century , it was in common use .

                      During World War I , in an effort to conserve fuel , Germany began observing DST on May 1 , 1916 . The rest of Europe soon followed . The plan was not adopted in the United States until the Standard Time Act of March 19 , 1918 , which confirmed the existing standard time zone system and set summer DST to begin on March 31 , 1918 ( reverting October 27 ) . The idea was unpopular and Congress abolished DST after the war , overriding President Woodrow Wilson 's veto . DST became a local option and was observed in some states until World War II , when President Franklin Roosevelt instituted year - round DST , called `` War Time '' , on February 9 , 1942 . It lasted until the last Sunday ( the 30th ) in September 1945 . After 1945 many states and cities east of the Mississippi River ( and mostly north of the Ohio and Potomac rivers ) adopted summer DST .

                      Tabitha and Napoleon received their best reviews on SYTYCD during season seven after a performance they choreographed to the song `` Outta Your Mind '' by Lil Jon . Creators.com called the routine `` brilliantly imaginative . '' Pioneer Local called it `` powerful ... It 's been so long since ( Tabitha and Napoleon ) have had a showstopping hip - hop number on SYTYCD . Not since Season 4 when they had Katee , Joshua , tWitch , Mark and Chelsie have they pulled out hip - hop this good . '' The routine was performed by ballet dancer Alex Wong and `` All - Star '' hip - hop dancer Stephen `` tWitch '' Boss from season four . The concept is about a psychologist ( tWitch ) who teaches a dancer ( Alex ) to let go of his technique and inhibitions and just dance . After the performance , tWitch and Alex received a standing ovation from the crowd and all three judges -- Nigel Lythgoe , Mia Michaels , and Adam Shankman . Host Cat Deeley commented `` I have never , never , in ' So You Think You Can Dance ' history , heard a roar from a crowd like this - ever . '' Lythgoe called the concept `` brilliant ... This is about a ballet dancer doing the most incredible hip - hop ... If this routine and you are not up for an Emmy with Napoleon and Tabitha next year , I do n't know why not . It 's probably one of the funnest , best hip - hop routines we 've ever had on this show . '' In slight disagreement , the Wall Street Journal noted that `` Outta Your Mind '' may in fact be nominated for an Emmy , but it is unlikely to win because past winners have all been lyrical , very emotional routines .

Following the breakthrough of the title track 's success , the song , written solely by Gaye , became regarded as one of popular music 's most poignant anthems of sorrow regarding the environment . Led by Gaye playing piano , strings conducted by Paul Riser and David Van De Pitte , multi-tracking vocals from Gaye and The Andantes , multiple background instruments provided by The Funk Brothers and a leading sax solo by Wild Bill Moore , the song rose to number 4 on Billboard 's Pop Singles chart and number one for two weeks on the R&B Singles charts on August 14 through to August 27 , 1971 . The distinctive percussive sound heard on the track was a wood block struck by a rubber mallet , drenched in studio reverb .

                      The Prisoners ( Temporary Discharge for Ill Health ) Act , commonly referred to as the Cat and Mouse Act , was an Act of Parliament passed in Britain under Herbert Henry Asquith 's Liberal government in 1913 . Some members of the Women 's Social and Political Union ( WSPU , commonly referred to as suffragettes ) had been imprisoned for acts of vandalism in support of women 's suffrage . In protest to being imprisoned some of these suffragettes undertook hunger strikes . These suffragettes were then force - fed leading to a public outcry . This act was a response to the outcry ; it allowed the prisoners to be released on licence as soon as the hunger strike affected their health . They then had a period of time in which they could recover . After a predetermined period of time the prisoner would be rearrested to serve out the rest of their sentence . Conditions could be placed on the prisoner during the time of their release . The hunger strikes themselves were now technically legal . However , the Act allowed for the re-imprisonment of the hunger strikers upon their recovery on their original charges . The nickname of the Act came about because of a cat 's habit of playing with its prey ( a mouse ) before finishing it off .

                      The most common type of megalithic construction in Europe is the portal tomb -- a chamber consisting of upright stones ( orthostats ) with one or more large flat capstones forming a roof . Many of these , though by no means all , contain human remains , but it is debatable whether use as burial sites was their primary function . The megalithic structures of Malta are believed to be the oldest in Europe , in particular Skorba Temples . Though generally known as dolmens , the correct term accepted by archaeologists is portal tomb . However many local names exist , such as anta in Galicia and Portugal , stazzone in Sardinia , hunebed in the Netherlands , Hünengrab in Germany , dysse in Denmark , and cromlech in Wales . It is assumed that most portal tombs were originally covered by earthen mounds .

                      `` There is one body and one Spirit just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call one Lord , one faith , one baptism , one God and Father of all , who is over all and through all and in all '' . This list in the Pauline letters of factors making Christians one body , one church , is doubtless not meant to be exhaustive , says Francis Aloysius Sullivan , but it affirms the oneness of the body , the church , through what Christians have in common , what they have communion in . Elsewhere , Paul the Apostle says : `` There is neither Jew nor Greek , there is neither slave nor free , there is no male and female , for you are all one in Christ Jesus '' ( Gal. 3 : 28 ) . This statement was about Christians as individuals , but it applied to them also as groups , as local churches , whether composed mainly of Jewish or Gentile Christians . In 1 Cor. 15 : 9 , Paul spoke of himself as having persecuted `` the church of God '' , not just the local church in Jerusalem but the same church that he addresses at the beginning of that letter as `` the church of God that is in Corinth '' ( 1 Cor. 1 : 2 ) . In the same letter , he tells Christians : `` You are the body of Christ and individually members of it '' ( 1 Cor. 12 : 27 ) , and declares that , `` just as the body is one and has many members , and all the members of the body , though many , are one body , so it is with Christ '' ( 1 Cor. 12 : 12 ) .

                      Later dynasties adopted different policies towards northern frontier defense . The Han ( 202 BC -- 220 AD ) , the Northern Qi ( 550 -- 574 ) , the Sui ( 589 -- 618 ) , and particularly the Ming ( 1369 -- 1644 ) were among those that rebuilt , re-manned , and expanded the Walls , although they rarely followed Qin 's routes . The Han extended the fortifications furthest to the west , the Qi built about 1,600 kilometres ( 990 mi ) of new walls , while the Sui mobilised over a million men in their wall - building efforts . Conversely , the Tang ( 618 -- 907 ) , the Song ( 960 -- 1279 ) , the Yuan ( 1271 -- 1368 ) , and the Qing ( 1644 -- 1911 ) mostly did not build frontier walls , instead opting for other solutions to the Inner Asian threat like military campaigning and diplomacy .

                      The Battle of Badr ( Arabic : غزوة بدر ‎ ‎ ) , fought on Tuesday , 13 March 624 CE ( 17 Ramadan , 2 AH in the Islamic calendar ) in the Hejaz region of western Arabia ( present - day Saudi Arabia ) , was a key battle in the early days of Islam and a turning point in Muhammad 's struggle with his opponents among the Quraish in Mecca . The battle has been passed down in Islamic history as a decisive victory attributable to divine intervention , or by secular sources to the strategic genius of Muhammad . It is one of the few battles specifically mentioned in the Quran . All knowledge of the battle at Badr comes from traditional Islamic accounts , both hadiths and biographies of Muhammad , recorded in written form some time after the battle . There is little evidence outside of these of the battle . There are no descriptions of the battle prior to the 9th Century .

Dusty feels that his elaborate stage show is overwhelming his music , a suspicion confirmed one night when he purposely forgets several bars of a chart - topping hit and his fans do n't even notice . Disillusioned , Dusty walks off after the concert without telling his manager , Lula ( Lesley Ann Warren ) . The only person he tells is his best friend and drummer , Earl ( John Doe ) , and that he is `` taking a walk , '' but does not say exactly where he is going or for how long . Dusty is singing a blurry version of `` Where the Sidewalk Ends '' . In a down home bar , we see Al ( Mark Walters ) . Dusty had breakfast with the Tucker family during this scene .

                      Filming began on March 3 , 2013 in New York City . Producers invited author Block to the set to watch filming . On the casting of Neeson , Block said , `` Readers often ask who 'd be my ideal Matt Scudder , and I usually change the subject . But now it 's safe to tell you that , ever since I saw him in Michael Collins , Neeson has been up at the top of my personal Scudder wish list . I could n't be happier about either the star or the writer / director , both of them genuine artists and brilliant professionals . My book 's in good hands . ''

                      The Great Wall of China visible today largely dates from the Ming dynasty , as they rebuilt much of the wall in stone and brick , often extending its line through challenging terrain . Some sections remain in relatively good condition or have been renovated , while others have been damaged or destroyed for ideological reasons , deconstructed for their building materials , or lost due to the ravages of time . For long an object of fascination for foreigners , the wall is now a revered national symbol and a popular tourist destination .

                      • Retribution -- Criminals ought to Be Punished in some way . This is the most widely seen goal . Criminals have taken improper advantage , or inflicted unfair detriment , upon others and consequently , the criminal law will put criminals at some unpleasant disadvantage to `` balance the scales . '' People submit to the law to receive the right not to be murdered and if people contravene these laws , they surrender the rights granted to them by the law . Thus , one who murders may be executed himself . A related theory includes the idea of `` righting the balance . ''
                      • Deterrence -- Individual deterrence is aimed toward the specific offender . The aim is to impose a sufficient penalty to discourage the offender from criminal behavior . General deterrence aims at society at large . By imposing a penalty on those who commit offenses , other individuals are discouraged from committing those offenses .
                      • Incapacitation -- Designed simply to keep criminals away from society so that the public is protected from their misconduct . This is often achieved through prison sentences today . The death penalty or banishment have served the same purpose .
                      • Rehabilitation -- Aims at transforming an offender into a valuable member of society . Its primary goal is to prevent further offense by convincing the offender that their conduct was wrong .
                      • Restoration -- This is a victim - oriented theory of punishment . The goal is to repair , through state authority , any injury inflicted upon the victim by the offender . For example , one who embezzles will be required to repay the amount improperly acquired . Restoration is commonly combined with other main goals of criminal justice and is closely related to concepts in the civil law , i.e. , returning the victim to his or her original position before the injury .

                      The Declaration consists of thirty articles affirming an individual 's rights which , although not legally binding in themselves , have been elaborated in subsequent international treaties , economic transfers , regional human rights instruments , national constitutions , and other laws . The Declaration was the first step in the process of formulating the International Bill of Human Rights , which was completed in 1966 , and came into force in 1976 , after a sufficient number of countries had ratified them .

                      At the time , Holly and his band , consisting of Waylon Jennings , Tommy Allsup , and Carl Bunch , were playing on the `` Winter Dance Party '' tour across the United States Midwest . Rising artists Valens and Richardson had joined the tour , as well . The long journeys between venues on board the cold , uncomfortable tour buses adversely affected the performers , with cases of flu and even frostbite . After stopping at Clear Lake to perform , and frustrated by such conditions , Holly chose to charter a plane to reach their next venue in Moorhead , Minnesota . Richardson , who had the flu , swapped places with Jennings , taking his seat on the plane , while Allsup lost his seat to Valens on a coin toss . Soon after takeoff , late at night and in poor , wintry weather conditions , the pilot lost control of the light aircraft , a Beechcraft Bonanza , which subsequently crashed into a cornfield . Everyone on board was killed . The event has since been mentioned in various songs and films . A number of monuments have been erected at the crash site and in Clear Lake , where an annual memorial concert is also held at the Surf Ballroom , the venue that hosted the artists ' last performance .

                      These rings are typically made of yellow or white gold with diamonds . They usually include the team name , team logo , and Super Bowl number ( usually indicated in Roman numerals ) . The NFL contributes up to $5,000 per ring for up to 150 rings for o the winning team ; any additional costs are borne by the team . Most rings are manufactured by memorabilia company Jostens . In 2015 , the rings for the New England Patriots reportedly cost $36,500 each , making them the most expensive rings Jostens has ever produced . The winning team can typically present rings to whomever they choose , including usually , but not limited to : players ( active roster or injured ) , coaches , trainers , executives , personnel , and general staff . Some teams have given rings to former players and coaches that were on the team at some point during the season , despite not having been on the winning roster for the Super Bowl itself . Sometimes a team will give rings to fans as part of a charity raffle . Teams can distribute any number of rings . A recent trend over the last 15 -- 20 years has been lesser rings awarded to front office staff . These are commonly called `` B '' and `` C '' level rings and are smaller and contain fewer diamonds or contain faux diamonds . The first instance of this was the Redskins Super Bowl XVII ring when many in the front office received rings that were not solid gold and contained cubic zirconia stones ( which resemble diamonds ) . When Tampa Bay won Super Bowl XXXVII , the players and coaches received rings with a diamond - centered Lombardi trophy . Some staff received rings with a metal Lombardi trophy and real diamonds surrounding the trophy and the `` C '' level ring did not contain any diamonds .

                      In about 1732 , Robin , a youth , arrives by ferry in Boston seeking his kinsman , Major Molineux , an official in the British Colonial government , who has promised him work . Yet no one in town tells him where the major is . A rich man threatens the youth with prison , and an innkeeper calls him a runaway bond - servant . At the inn , he meets a man with a face described as looking like the devil - two protrusions emanating from his forehead ( like horns ) , eyes burning like ' fire in a cave ' - who seems at the center of many evil things . Later , he runs into the man again , but this time his face is painted black and red . After blocking his path with a cudgel , he finally gets the answer that his kinsman will soon pass by . He waits at the spot on the steps of a church where he is greeted by the first polite gentleman he has met all night . Soon , the two men hear the roar of an approaching mob . At its head is the man with the red and black face and in its midst is Major Molineux , tarred and feathered . The crowd is in an uproar , and everyone is laughing . Soon , so is young Robin , as his eyes meet those of the Major , who knows him right away . Disillusioned , the youth asks the gentleman the way back to the ferry . Yet the latter restrains him , saying that it is still possible for him to thrive without his kinsman 's protection .

                      The Russian Provisional Government ( Russian : Временное правительство России , tr . Vremennoye pravitel'stvo Rossii ) was a provisional government of Russia established immediately following the abdication of Tsar Nicholas II of the Russian Empire on 2 March ( 15 March , New Style ) 1917 . The intention of the provisional government was the organization of elections to the Russian Constituent Assembly and its convention . The provisional government lasted approximately eight months , and ceased to exist when the Bolsheviks gained power after the October Revolution in October ( November , N.S. ) 1917 . According to Harold Whitmore Williams the history of eight months during which Russia was ruled by the Provisional Government was the history of the steady and systematic disorganisation of the army .

                      The American entry into World War I came in April 1917 , after more than two and a half years of efforts by President Woodrow Wilson to keep the United States out of the war . Apart from an Anglophile element urging early support for the British , American public opinion reflected that of the president : the sentiment for neutrality was particularly strong among Irish Americans , German Americans and Scandinavian Americans , as well as among church leaders and among women in general . On the other hand , even before World War I had broken out , American opinion had been more negative toward Germany than towards any other country in Europe . Over time , especially after reports of atrocities in Belgium in 1914 and following the sinking of the passenger liner RMS Lusitania in 1915 , the American citizens increasingly came to see Germany as the aggressor in Europe .

                      In 1917 , with Russia experiencing political upheaval following widespread disillusionment there over the war , and with Britain and France low on credit , Germany appeared to have the upper hand in Europe , while Germany 's ally , the Ottoman Empire , clung stubbornly to its possessions in the Middle East . In the same year , Germany decided to resume unrestricted submarine warfare against any vessel approaching British waters ; this attempt to starve Britain into surrender was balanced against the knowledge that it would almost certainly bring the United States into the war . Germany also made a secret offer to help Mexico regain territories lost in the Mexican -- American War in an encoded telegram known as the Zimmermann Telegram , which was intercepted by British Intelligence . Publication of that communique outraged Americans just as German U-boats started sinking American merchant ships in the North Atlantic . Wilson then asked Congress for `` a war to end all wars '' that would `` make the world safe for democracy '' , and Congress voted to declare war on Germany on April 6 , 1917 .

                      In 1989 , the Hawke Labor Government began gradually re-introducing fees for university study . It set up the Higher Education Contributions Scheme ( HECS ) , which was first proposed by Professor Murray Wells and subsequently developed by economist and lecturer at the Australian National University , Bruce Chapman and championed by Education Minister John Dawkins ( see Dawkins Revolution ) . Under the original HECS , a $1,800 fee was charged to all university students , and the Commonwealth paid the balance . A student could defer payment of this HECS amount ( in which case it was called a HECS debt ) and repay the debt through the tax system , when the student 's income exceeds a threshold level . As part of the reforms , Colleges of Advanced Education entered the University sector by various means . The HECS system was accepted by both federal political parties and has survived until today , though with a number of changes .

                      • By petition for a writ of certiorari , filed by a party to a case that has been decided by one of the United States courts of appeals or by the United States Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces .
                      • By petition for writ of certiorari with respect to a decision of one of the territorial or state courts , after all state appeals have been exhausted , where an issue of federal constitutional or statutory law is in question . The writ is usually issued to a state supreme court ( including high courts of the District of Columbia , Puerto Rico , the U.S. Virgin Islands , Guam , the Northern Mariana Islands , and American Samoa ) , but is occasionally issued to a state 's intermediate appellate court for cases where the state supreme court denied certiorari or review and thereby refused to hear the appeal .
                      • By petition for certiorari before judgment , which permits the Court to expedite a case pending before a United States court of appeals by accepting the case for review before the appellate court has decided it . However , Supreme Court Rule 11 provides that a case may be taken by the Court before judgment in a lower court `` only upon a showing that the case is of such imperative public importance as to justify deviation from normal appellate practice and to require immediate determination in this Court . ''
                      • By appeal from certain decisions of United States district courts in certain cases involving redistricting of congressional or state legislative districts , or when specifically authorized in a particular statute .
                      • By a certified question or proposition of law from one of the United States Courts of Appeals , meaning that the Court of Appeals requests the Supreme Court to instruct it on how to decide the case . This procedure was once common but is now rarely invoked ; the last certificate accepted for review was in 1981 .
                      • By petition for an `` extraordinary writ '' such as mandamus , prohibition , or habeas corpus . These writs are rarely granted by the Supreme Court though they are more frequently granted by lower courts .

                      In HTTP / 1.0 and since , the first line of the HTTP response is called the status line and includes a numeric status code ( such as `` 404 '' ) and a textual reason phrase ( such as `` Not Found '' ) . The way the user agent handles the response primarily depends on the code and secondarily on the other response header fields . Custom status codes can be used since , if the user agent encounters a code it does not recognize , it can use the first digit of the code to determine the general class of the response .

                      In modern times , the U.S. military plays ( or sounds ) `` Reveille '' in the morning , generally near sunrise , though its exact time varies from base to base . On U.S. Army posts and Air Force bases , `` Reveille '' is played by itself or followed by the bugle call `` To the Colors '' at which time the national flag is raised and all U.S. military personnel outdoors are required to come to attention and present a salute in uniform , either to the flag or in the direction of the music if the flag is not visible . While in formation , soldiers are brought to the position of parade rest while `` Reveille '' plays then called to attention and present arms as the national flag is raised . On board U.S. Navy , Marine Corps , and Coast Guard facilities , the flag is generally raised at 0800 ( 8 am ) while `` The Star Spangled Banner '' or the bugle call `` To the Colors '' is played . On some U.S. military bases , `` Reveille '' is accompanied by a cannon shot .

                      Victim blaming occurs when the victim of a crime or any wrongful act is held entirely or partially responsible for the harm that befell them . The study of victimology seeks to mitigate the perception of victims as responsible . There is a greater tendency to blame victims of rape than victims of robbery if victims and perpetrators know each other .

                      A camel is an even - toed ungulate in the genus Camelus , bearing distinctive fatty deposits known as `` humps '' on its back . The three surviving species of camel are the dromedary , or one - humped camel ( C. dromedarius ) , which inhabits the Middle East and the Horn of Africa ; the Bactrian , or two - humped camel ( C. bactrianus ) , which inhabits Central Asia ; and the critically endangered wild Bactrian camel ( C. ferus ) that has limited populations in remote areas of northwest China and Mongolia . Bactrian camels take their name from the historical Bactria region of Central Asia . Additionally one other species of camel in the separate genus Camelops , C. hesternus lived in western North America and became extinct when humans entered the continent at the end of the Pleistocene . Both the dromedary and the Bactrian camels have been domesticated ; they provide milk , meat , hair for textiles or goods such as felted pouches , and are working animals with tasks ranging from human transport to bearing loads .

                      In the Romantic period , music became more expressive and emotional , expanding to encompass literary , artistic , and philosophical themes . Famous early Romantic composers include Beethoven ( whose works span both this period and the preceding Classical period ) , Schubert , Schumann , Chopin , Mendelssohn , Bellini , and Berlioz . The late 19th century saw a dramatic expansion in the size of the orchestra and in the dynamic range and diversity of instruments used in this ensemble . Also , public concerts became a key part of urban middle class society , in contrast to earlier periods , when concerts were mainly paid for by and performed for aristocrats . Famous composers from the second half of the century include Bruckner , Johann Strauss II , Brahms , Liszt , Tchaikovsky , Dvořák , Verdi , and Wagner . Between 1890 and 1910 , a third wave of composers including Mahler , Richard Strauss , Puccini , and Sibelius built on the work of middle Romantic composers to create even more complex -- and often much longer -- musical works . A prominent mark of late 19th century music is its nationalistic fervor , as exemplified by such figures as Dvořák , Sibelius , and Grieg . Other prominent late - century figures include Saint - Saëns , Fauré , Rachmaninoff and Franck .

                      The ventricles are filled with cerebrospinal fluid ( CSF ) which bathes and cushions the brain and spinal cord within their bony confines . CSF is produced by modified ependymal cells of the choroid plexus found in all components of the ventricular system except for the cerebral aqueduct and the posterior and anterior horns of the lateral ventricles . CSF flows from the lateral ventricles via the interventricular foramina into the third ventricle , and then the fourth ventricle via the cerebral aqueduct in the brainstem . From the fourth ventricle it can pass into the central canal of the spinal cord or into the subarachnoid cisterns via three small foramina : the central median aperture and the two lateral apertures .

                      The Gulf Stream , together with its northern extension the North Atlantic Drift , is a warm and swift Atlantic ocean current that originates in the Gulf of Mexico and stretches to the tip of Florida , and follows the eastern coastlines of the United States and Newfoundland before crossing the Atlantic Ocean . The process of western intensification causes the Gulf Stream to be a northward accelerating current off the east coast of North America . At about 40 ° 0 ′ N 30 ° 0 ′ W  /  40.000 ° N 30.000 ° W  / 40.000 ; - 30.000 , it splits in two , with the northern stream , the North Atlantic Drift , crossing to Northern Europe and the southern stream , the Canary Current , recirculating off West Africa .

                      Combustion / kəmˈbʌs. tʃ ən / or burning is a high - temperature exothermic redox chemical reaction between a fuel ( the reductant ) and an oxidant , usually atmospheric oxygen , that produces oxidized , often gaseous products , in a mixture termed as smoke . Combustion in a fire produces a flame , and the heat produced can make combustion self - sustaining . Combustion is often a complicated sequence of elementary radical reactions . Solid fuels , such as wood and coal , first undergo endothermic pyrolysis to produce gaseous fuels whose combustion then supplies the heat required to produce more of them . Combustion is often hot enough that light in the form of either glowing or a flame is produced . A simple example can be seen in the combustion of hydrogen and oxygen into water vapor , a reaction commonly used to fuel rocket engines . This reaction releases 242 kJ / mol of heat and reduces the enthalpy accordingly ( at constant temperature and pressure ) :

                      Certain cases that have not been considered by a lower court may be heard by the Supreme Court in the first instance under what is termed original jurisdiction . The Supreme Court 's authority in this respect is also derived from Article III of the Constitution , which states that the Supreme Court shall have original jurisdiction `` in all cases affecting ambassadors , other public ministers and consuls , and those in which a state shall be party . '' The original jurisdiction of the Court is set forth in 28 U.S.C. § 1251 . This statute provides further that , in the case of disputes between two or more states , the Supreme Court holds both original and exclusive jurisdiction and no lower court may hear such cases .

                      A thin film is a layer of material ranging from fractions of a nanometer ( monolayer ) to several micrometers in thickness . The controlled synthesis of materials as thin films ( a process referred to as deposition ) is a fundamental step in many applications . A familiar example is the household mirror , which typically has a thin metal coating on the back of a sheet of glass to form a reflective interface . The process of silvering was once commonly used to produce mirrors , while more recently the metal layer is deposited using techniques such as sputtering . Advances in thin film deposition techniques during the 20th century have enabled a wide range of technological breakthroughs in areas such as magnetic recording media , electronic semiconductor devices , LEDs , optical coatings ( such as antireflective coatings ) , hard coatings on cutting tools , and for both energy generation ( e.g. thin - film solar cells ) and storage ( thin - film batteries ) . It is also being applied to pharmaceuticals , via thin - film drug delivery . A stack of thin films is called a multilayer .

                      James Long believed that the British mercantile community and even the Government unjustly and oppressively treated the Indigo cultivators . His view concurred with Dinabandhu Mitra who expressed his sentiments in a play entitled Nil Darpan ( the original Bengali play was written by him ) and published anonymously from Dhaka in 1860 . Mitra sent Long a copy of the play as early as 1861 . Long brought it to the notice of W. S Seton - Karr , Secretary to the Governor of Bengal and ex-President of the Indigo Commission . Seton - Karr , sensing its importance , mentioned Nil Durpan in conversation with the Lieutenant Governor , Grant. Grant expressed a wish to see a translation of it and print a few copies to be circulated privately amongst friends . After the discussion , Seton - Karr asked Long to arrange for a translation of the play in English . Michael Madhusudan Dutta translated it under the supervision of Long . Long as the editor cut out some coarse passages and wrote a short prefatory note for the play . When the translation was complete , Seton - Karr ordered printing of five hundred copies in lieu of Grant 's wish of a few copies . Then Long sent the translated manuscripts to Clement Henry Manuel , the proprietor of the Calcutta Printing and Publishing Press to print five hundred copies and the cost came to around Rs. 300 . It was published in April or May 1861 . Unknown to the Lieutenant Governor , Long began sending out the copies in official Government envelopes that had the heading : `` on her Majesty 's Service '' . The translation revealed the nature of the oppression against the indigo planters . It naturally offended the establishment of the play so much that a razing propaganda was started by the Anglo - Indian Press against the publisher and the translator . One of the leading newspapers named The Englishmen and some indigo planters instituted a libel suit against Long and the printer - C.H. Manuel . The words mentioned in Long 's Introduction to the play stated that what was presented in it was `` plain but true '' . This was subsequently used by the planters in their prosecution of Long for publishing defamatory statements .

                      In 1762 the earliest of the Fuadaich nan Gàidheal ( Scottish Highland Clearances ) forced many Gaelic families off their ancestral lands . The first ship loaded with Hebridean colonists arrived on `` St. - John 's Island '' ( Prince Edward Island ) in 1770 , with later ships following in 1772 , and 1774 . In 1773 a ship named The Hector landed in Pictou , Nova Scotia , with 189 settlers , mostly originating from Lochbroom . In 1784 the last barrier to Scottish settlement -- a law restricting land - ownership on Cape Breton Island -- was repealed , and soon both PEI and Nova Scotia were predominantly Gaelic - speaking . It is estimated more than 50,000 Gaelic settlers emigrated to Nova Scotia and Cape Breton Island between 1815 and 1870 .

                      The corpus luteum ( Latin for `` yellow body '' ; plural corpora lutea ) is a temporary endocrine structure in female ovaries and is involved in the production of relatively high levels of progesterone , moderate levels of estradiol , inhibin A and small amounts of estrogen . It is the remains of the ovarian follicle that has released a mature ovum during a previous ovulation . It is colored as a result of concentrating carotenoids ( including lutein ) from the diet and secretes a moderate amount of estrogen to inhibit further release of gonadotropin - releasing hormone ( GnRH ) and thus secretion of luteinizing hormone ( LH ) and follicle - stimulating hormone ( FSH ) . A new corpus luteum develops with each menstrual cycle .

According to the Hawaii Agricultural Statistics Service , agricultural sales were US $370.9 million from diversified agriculture , US $100.6 million from pineapple , and US $64.3 million from sugarcane . Hawaii 's relatively consistent climate has attracted the seed industry , which is able to test three generations of crops per year on the islands , compared with one or two on the mainland . Seeds yielded US $264 million in 2012 , supporting 1,400 workers .

                      A solid bounded by a cylindrical surface and two parallel planes is called a ( solid ) cylinder . The line segments determined by an element of the cylindrical surface between the two parallel planes is called an element of the cylinder . All the elements of a cylinder have equal lengths . The region bounded by the cylindrical surface in either of the parallel planes is called a base of the cylinder . The two bases of a cylinder are congruent figures . If the elements of the cylinder are perpendicular to the planes containing the bases , the cylinder is a right cylinder , otherwise it is called an oblique cylinder . If the bases are disks ( regions whose boundary is a circle ) the cylinder is called a circular cylinder . In some elementary treatments , a cylinder always means a circular cylinder .

Camille is the only storm to have been moved down the list due to post-storm analysis . Camille was originally recognized as the fifth strongest hurricane on record , but was dropped to the seventh strongest in 2014 , with an estimated pressure at 905 mbars , tying it with Hurricanes Mitch , and Dean . Camille then was recategorized with a new pressure of 900 mbars . Currently , Mitch and Dean share intensities for the eighth strongest Atlantic hurricane at 905 mbar ( hPa ; 26.73 inHg ) . Hurricane Maria is in tenth place for most intense Atlantic tropical cyclone , with a pressure as low as 908 mbar ( hPa ; 26.81 inHg ) .

                      Cooling towers originated in the 19th century through the development of condensers for use with the steam engine . Condensers use relatively cool water , via various means , to condense the steam coming out of the cylinders or turbines . This reduces the back pressure , which in turn reduces the steam consumption , and thus the fuel consumption , while at the same time increasing power and recycling boiler - water . However the condensers require an ample supply of cooling water , without which they are impractical . The consumption of cooling water by inland processing and power plants is estimated to reduce power availability for the majority of thermal power plants by 2040 -- 2069 . While water usage is not an issue with marine engines , it forms a significant limitation for many land - based systems .

                      Chromosomes are normally visible under a light microscope only when the cell is undergoing the metaphase of cell division ( where all chromosomes are aligned in the center of the cell in their condensed form ) . Before this happens , every chromosome is copied once ( S phase ) , and the copy is joined to the original by a centromere , resulting either in an X-shaped structure ( pictured to the right ) if the centromere is located in the middle of the chromosome or a two - arm structure if the centromere is located near one of the ends . The original chromosome and the copy are now called sister chromatids . During metaphase the X-shape structure is called a metaphase chromosome . In this highly condensed form chromosomes are easiest to distinguish and study . In animal cells , chromosomes reach their highest compaction level in anaphase during segregation .

                      The concept of the paradise garden ( charbagh ) was brought from Persia by the Mughals as a form of Timurid garden . They were the first architectural expression the new empire made in the Indian sub-continent , and fulfilled diverse functions with strong symbolic meanings . The symbolism of these gardens is derived from mystic Islamic texts describing paradise as a garden filled with abundant trees , flowers and plants , with water playing a key role : In Paradise four rivers source at a central spring or mountain . In their ideal form they were laid out as a square subdivided into four equal parts . These rivers are often represented in the charbagh as shallow canals which separate the garden by flowing towards the cardinal points . The canals represent the promise of water , milk , wine and honey . The centre of the garden , at the intersection of the divisions is highly symbolically charged and is where , in the ideal form , a pavilion , pool or tomb would be situated . The tombs of Humayun , Akbar and Jahangir , the previous Mughal emperors , follow this pattern . The cross axial garden also finds independent precedents within South Asia dating from the 5th century where the royal gardens of Sigiriya in Sri Lanka were laid out in a similar way .

                      The history of Hawaii 's economy can be traced through a succession of dominant industries ; sandalwood , whaling , sugarcane , pineapple , the military , tourism and education . Since statehood in 1959 , tourism has been the largest industry , contributing 24.3 % of the gross state product ( GSP ) in 1997 , despite efforts to diversify . The state 's gross output for 2003 was US $47 billion ; per capita income for Hawaii residents in 2014 was US $54,516 . Hawaiian exports include food and clothing . These industries play a small role in the Hawaiian economy , due to the shipping distance to viable markets , such as the West Coast of the contiguous U.S. The state 's food exports include coffee , macadamia nuts , pineapple , livestock , sugarcane and honey .

                      Although the month and date of Jesus ' birth are unknown , by the early - to - mid fourth century the Western Christian Church had placed Christmas on December 25 , a date that was later adopted in the East . Today , most Christians celebrate on December 25 in the Gregorian calendar , which has been adopted almost universally in the civil calendars used in countries throughout the world . However , some Eastern Christian Churches celebrate Christmas on December 25 of the older Julian calendar , which currently corresponds to January 7 in the Gregorian calendar , the day after the Western Christian Church celebrates the Epiphany . This is not a disagreement over the date of Christmas as such , but rather a preference of which calendar should be used to determine the day that is December 25 . Moreover , for Christians , the belief that God came into the world in the form of man to atone for the sins of humanity , rather than the exact birth date , is considered to be the primary purpose in celebrating Christmas .

                      The railway was originally built between Eastern Canada and British Columbia between 1881 and 1885 ( connecting with Ottawa Valley and Georgian Bay area lines built earlier ) , fulfilling a promise extended to British Columbia when it entered Confederation in 1871 . It was Canada 's first transcontinental railway , but no longer reaches the Atlantic coast . Primarily a freight railway , the CPR was for decades the only practical means of long - distance passenger transport in most regions of Canada , and was instrumental in the settlement and development of Western Canada . The CPR became one of the largest and most powerful companies in Canada , a position it held as late as 1975 . Its primary passenger services were eliminated in 1986 , after being assumed by Via Rail Canada in 1978 . A beaver was chosen as the railway 's logo in honor of Sir Donald A Smith ( 1st . Baron Strathcona and Mount Royal ) who had risen from Factor to Govenor of the Hudson 's Bay Company over a lengthy career in the beaver fur trade . Smith was a principal financier of the C.P.R. staking much of his personal wealth . In 1885 he drove the last spike to complete the transcontinental line .

                      During the trial , the brothers claimed that the murders stemmed from years of sexual and psychological abuse that they had suffered at the hands of their parents . They were first tried by two different juries ( one for each brother ) . Both juries deadlocked which led to a mistrial . For the second trial , Erik and Lyle were judged by the same jury , who rejected the defense 's claim . The brothers were sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole .

                      From the 13th century onwards , the Prince - Electors had the privilege of electing the King of the Romans , who would be crowned by the Pope as Holy Roman Emperor . Charles V was the last to be a crowned Emperor ( elected 1519 , crowned 1530 ) ; his successors were elected Emperors directly by the electoral college , each being titled `` Elected Emperor of the Romans '' ( German : erwählter Römischer Kaiser ; Latin : electus Romanorum imperator ) . In practice , all but one Emperor ( Charles VII from the House of Wittelsbach ) from 1440 onwards came from the Austrian House of Habsburg , and the Electors merely ratified the Habsburg succession .

                      In total , 29 players have reached the 50 home run club in MLB history and nine have done so more than once . Of these , seventeen were right - handed batters , eleven were left - handed , and one was a switch hitter , meaning he could bat from either side of the plate . Four of these players ( including two active members of the 50 home run club ) have played for only one major league team . The New York Yankees are the only franchise to have five players reach the milestone while on their roster : Ruth , Mickey Mantle , Roger Maris , Alex Rodriguez , and Aaron Judge . Ten players are also members of the 500 home run club and two of them ( Willie Mays and Rodriguez ) are also members of the 3,000 hit club . Ten players won the Most Valuable Player ( MVP ) Award in the same year as their 50 home run season . Mantle is the only player to have earned the Major League Triple Crown alongside achieving 50 home runs , leading both leagues in batting average , home runs and runs batted in ( RBI ) . Mantle and Maris -- collectively known as the M&M Boys -- are the only teammates to reach the 50 home run club in the same season , hitting a combined 115 home runs in 1961 and breaking the single - season record for home runs by a pair of teammates . Albert Belle is the only player to amass 50 or more doubles in addition to attaining 50 home runs . Prince Fielder , at 23 years and 139 days , was the youngest player to reach the milestone while Bonds , at age 37 , was the oldest .

                      Earlier theories ( e.g. by Alfred Wegener and Alexander du Toit ) of continental drift postulated that continents `` ploughed '' through the sea . The idea that the seafloor itself moves ( and also carries the continents with it ) as it expands from a central axis was proposed by Harry Hess from Princeton University in the 1960s . The theory is well accepted now , and the phenomenon is known to be caused by convection currents in the asthenosphere , which is ductile , or plastic , and the brittle lithosphere ( crust and upper mantle ) .

                      Since then , it has been shown that the motion of the continents is linked to seafloor spreading by the theory of plate tectonics . In the 1960s , the past record of geomagnetic reversals was noticed by observing the magnetic stripe `` anomalies '' on the ocean floor . This results in broadly evident `` stripes '' from which the past magnetic field polarity can be inferred by looking at the data gathered from simply towing a magnetometer on the sea surface or from an aircraft . The stripes on one side of the mid-ocean ridge were the mirror image of those on the other side . The seafloor must have originated on the Earth 's great fiery welts , like the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and the East Pacific Rise .

                      There has been much speculation about what their last song was . A first - class Canadian passenger , Mrs. Vera Dick , and several other passengers , alleged that the final tune played was that of the hymn `` Nearer , My God , to Thee '' . Hartley reportedly once said to a friend if he were on a sinking ship , `` Nearer , My God , to Thee '' would be one of the songs he would play . But Walter Lord 's book A Night to Remember popularised wireless operator Harold Bride 's 1912 account ( New York Times ) that he heard the song `` Autumn '' before the ship sank . It is considered Bride either meant the hymn tune known as `` Autumn '' or the tune of the then - popular waltz `` Songe d'Automne '' but neither was in the White Star Line songbook for the band . Bride is one of only two witnesses who were close enough to the band , as he floated off the deck before the ship went down . Some consider his statement to be reliable . Mrs. Dick had left by lifeboat an hour and 20 minutes earlier and could not possibly have heard the band 's final moments . The notion that the band played `` Nearer , My God , to Thee '' as a swan song is possibly a myth originating from the wrecking of SS Valencia , which had received wide press coverage in Canada in 1906 and so may have influenced Mrs. Dick 's recollection .

                      The vascular cambium is the main growth layer in the stems and roots of many plants , specifically in dicots such as buttercups and oak trees , and gymnosperms such as pine trees . It produces xylem on the inside and phloem on the outside . In herbaceous plants , it occurs in the vascular bundles which are often arranged like beads on a necklace forming an interrupted ring inside the stem . In woody plants , it forms a continuous ring and grows new wood on the inside .

                      Although large - scale use of wheels did not occur in the Americas prior to European contact , numerous small wheeled artifacts , identified as children 's toys , have been found in Mexican archeological sites , some dating to about 1500 BC . It is thought that the primary obstacle to large - scale development of the wheel in the Americas was the absence of domesticated large animals which could be used to pull wheeled carriages . The closest relative of cattle present in Americas in pre-Columbian times , the American Bison , is difficult to domesticate and was never domesticated by Native Americans ; several horse species existed until about 12,000 years ago , but ultimately became extinct . The only large animal that was domesticated in the Western hemisphere , the llama , did not spread far beyond the Andes by the time of the arrival of Columbus .

                      The Baltimore Colts relocation to Indianapolis was a successful effort by the then - owner of the Baltimore Colts ( Robert Irsay ) to move the American football team from Baltimore , Maryland to Indianapolis , Indiana . The team began play as the Indianapolis Colts for the 1984 National Football League ( NFL ) season . The Colts ' move was completely unannounced and occurred in the early hours of March 29 , 1984 , after years of lobbying for a new stadium to replace the inadequate Memorial Stadium . The franchise 's move continues to embitter many Baltimore natives decades afterward , and would have a lasting impact on the NFL , including another controversial relocation twelve years later that resulted in Baltimore receiving its current NFL team , the Ravens .

                      Originally , Top Hat customers would park their automobiles anywhere on the gravel parking lot and walk up to place their orders . However , on a trip to Louisiana , Smith saw a drive - in that used speakers for ordering . He suspected that he could increase his sales by controlling the parking and having the customers order from speakers at their cars , with carhops delivering the food to the cars . Smith borrowed several automobiles from a friend who owned a used - car lot to establish a layout for controlled parking . He also had some so - called `` jukebox boys '' come in and wire an intercom system in the parking lot . Sales immediately tripled . Charles Woodrow Pappe , an entrepreneur , chanced upon the Shawnee drive - in and was impressed . He and Smith negotiated the first franchise location in Woodward , Oklahoma , in 1956 , based on nothing more than a handshake . By 1958 , two more drive - ins were built , in Enid and Stillwater .

                      Other names for the vascular cambium are the main cambium , wood cambium , or bifacial cambium . In more detail , the vascular cambium is a plant tissue located between the xylem and the phloem in the stems and roots of certain vascular plants . It is a cylinder of unspecialized meristem cells that divide to form secondary vascular tissues . It is the source of both secondary xylem growth inwards towards the pith , and secondary phloem growth outwards to the bark . Unlike the xylem and phloem , it does not transport water , minerals or food through the plant .

                      The ecliptic is the circular path on the celestial sphere that the Sun appears to follow over the course of a year ; it is the basis of the ecliptic coordinate system . The term also refers to the plane of this path , which is coplanar with Earth 's orbit around the Sun ( and hence the Sun 's apparent orbit around Earth ) . The ecliptic is not normally noticeable from Earth 's surface because Earth rotates , carrying the observer through the cycles of sunrise and sunset , which obscure the Sun 's apparent motion against the background of fixed stars .

During the fourth season , Brenda is interested in the drama department but it also led to problems : she spoiled her first audition and then went to the director of the play to try again and convince him . She then got the role , but a student made a rumor saying that she had slept to have the role . Unfortunately , this student was the girlfriend of Steve Sanders and the latter believed the rumors , others refusing more or less to believe the denials of Brenda . Steve understood his mistake when the student asked him to attack Brenda to make her miss rehearsals . A little later , Steve 's friend tried to commit suicide , but Brenda and Steve joined forces to save her and Steve was finally compensated by following Brenda 's debut on stage . The director 's praise led her to accept the latter at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts ( RADA ) in London for a year . After Kelly and Dylan last broke up , Brenda finally learned that a relationship was possible between Kelly and Brandon and expressed her blessing . She later spent her last night with Dylan , telling her she would not be gone forever . The couple will reconcile briefly in the final scene of the fourth season , though ( because of Shannen Doherty 's departure ) Brenda 's character was removed from the script and she never returned to Beverly Hills .

                      While iron ore deposits were known , like the Mount Whaleback deposit discovered in 1957 by Stan Hilditch , it was not until 1960 , when the Australian Government lifted the embargo on iron ore exports it had put in place because of concerns the mineral was in short supply , that mining began in earnest . Up until the mid-1960s , iron ore production in Western Australia , and Australia as a whole , was negligible , in the range of less than 10 million tons a year . By the mid-1970s , this figure had reached 100 million tonnes , with the majority coming from Western Australia . Production slightly declined in the 1980s but it improved in the 1990s , reaching 150 million tonnes for the country by 1997 and 200 million tonnes by 2003 .

                      Just prior to President Obama 's 2014 State of the Union Address , media reported that the top wealthiest 1 % possess 40 % of the nation 's wealth ; the bottom 80 % own 7 % ; similarly , but later , the media reported , the `` richest 1 percent in the United States now own more additional income than the bottom 90 percent '' . The gap between the top 10 % and the middle class is over 1,000 % ; that increases another 1,000 % for the top 1 % . The average employee `` needs to work more than a month to earn what the CEO earns in one hour . '' Although different from income inequality , the two are related . In Inequality for All -- a 2013 documentary with Robert Reich in which he argued that income inequality is the defining issue for the United States -- Reich states that 95 % of economic gains went to the top 1 % net worth ( HNWI ) since 2009 when the recovery allegedly started . More recently , in 2017 , an Oxfam study found that eight rich people , six of them Americans , own as much combined wealth as half the human race .

                      Maine is best known for her loss in Havana Harbor on the evening of 15 February 1898 . Sent to protect U.S. interests during the Cuban revolt against Spain , she exploded suddenly , without warning , and sank quickly , killing nearly three quarters of her crew . The cause and responsibility for her sinking remained unclear after a board of inquiry investigated . Nevertheless , popular opinion in the U.S. , fanned by inflammatory articles printed in the `` yellow press '' by William Randolph Hearst and Joseph Pulitzer , blamed Spain . The phrase , `` Remember the Maine ! To hell with Spain ! '' , became a rallying cry for action , which came with the Spanish -- American War later that year . While the sinking of Maine was not a direct cause for action , it served as a catalyst , accelerating the approach to a diplomatic impasse between the U.S. and Spain .

                      The primary steps in the commercialization of sound cinema were taken in the mid - to late 1920s . At first , the sound films which included synchronized dialogue , known as `` talking pictures '' , or `` talkies '' , were exclusively shorts . The earliest feature - length movies with recorded sound included only music and effects . The first feature film originally presented as a talkie was The Jazz Singer , released in October 1927 . A major hit , it was made with Vitaphone , which was at the time the leading brand of sound - on - disc technology . Sound - on - film , however , would soon become the standard for talking pictures .

                      In the Hebrew Bible the Book of Life - the book or muster - roll of God - records forever all people considered righteous before God . God has such a book , and to be blotted out of it signifies death . It is with reference to the Book of Life that the holy remnant is spoken of as being written unto life in Jerusalem ; compare also Ezekiel ix. 4 , where one of the six heavenly envoys `` who had the scribe 's inkhorn upon his loins '' is told to mark the righteous for life , while the remainder of the inhabitants of Jerusalem are doomed . The Psalmist likewise speaks of the Book of Life in which only the names of the righteous are written `` and from which the unrighteous are blotted out '' . Even the tears of men are recorded in this Book of God . `` Every one that shall be found written in the book ... shall awake to everlasting life '' . This book is probably identical with the `` Book of Remembrance '' in which are recorded the deeds of those that fear the Lord .

                      Deep - cycle lead - acid batteries generally fall into two distinct categories ; flooded ( FLA ) and valve - regulated lead - acid ( VRLA ) , with the VRLA type further subdivided into two types , Absorbed Glass Mat ( AGM ) and Gel . The reinforcement of absorbed glass mat separators helps to reduce damage caused by spilling and jolting vibrations . Further , flooded deep - cycle batteries can be divided into subcategories of Tubular - plated Opzs or flat plated . The difference generally affects the cycle life and performance of the cell . The structural difference between deep - cycle batteries and cranking batteries is in the lead battery plates . Deep cycle battery plates have thicker active plates , with higher - density active paste material and thicker separators . Alloys used for the plates in a deep cycle battery may contain more antimony than that of starting batteries . The thicker battery plates resist corrosion through extended charge and discharge cycles .

                      In 1936 , the couple were returning from an ocean voyage to Europe when the rhythm of the ship 's engines inspired the poem that became his first book : And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street . Based on Geisel 's varied accounts , the book was rejected by between 20 and 43 publishers . According to Geisel , he was walking home to burn the manuscript when a chance encounter with an old Dartmouth classmate led to its publication by Vanguard Press . Geisel wrote four more books before the US entered World War II . This included The 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins in 1938 , as well as The King 's Stilts and The Seven Lady Godivas in 1939 , all of which were in prose , atypically for him . This was followed by Horton Hatches the Egg in 1940 , in which Geisel returned to the use of poetry .

It is primordial , since in the further development of the embryo this particular mass no longer appears , but parts of it remain in `` the intermaxillary portion of the upper jaw , the portion of the upper lip , and the primary palate '' .

                      The caps at both poles consist primarily of water ice . Frozen carbon dioxide accumulates as a comparatively thin layer about one metre thick on the north cap in the northern winter only , while the south cap has a permanent dry ice cover about 8 m thick . The northern polar cap has a diameter of about 1000 km during the northern Mars summer , and contains about 1.6 million cubic km of ice , which if spread evenly on the cap would be 2 km thick . ( This compares to a volume of 2.85 million cubic km ( km ) for the Greenland ice sheet . ) The southern polar cap has a diameter of 350 km and a thickness of 3 km . The total volume of ice in the south polar cap plus the adjacent layered deposits has also been estimated at 1.6 million cubic km . Both polar caps show spiral troughs , which recent analysis of SHARAD ice penetrating radar has shown are a result of roughly perpendicular katabatic winds that spiral due to the Coriolis Effect .

                      A short chapter , mainly consisting of two newspaper articles , informs the reader , that Jean Valjean has been re-arrested while getting into the stagecoach to Montfermeil ( on his way to get Fantine 's eight - year - old daughter , Cosette , whom he had promised to rescue ) . In July 1823 , he was condemned to death for the 40 - sous theft and the escape from the jail in Montreuil - sur - Mer , as the prosecutor claims that Valjean was part of a gang of street robbers and the latter refuses to defend himself . His sentence was graciously reduced by the king to only life in prison instead of death . Before he was captured , Jean Valjean had already traveled near to Montfermeil and buried all the money he 'd saved as M. Madeleine -- a chapter tells of a worker in Montfermeil , a former Toulon convict , who claims having seen , according to a local fairy tale , the devil burying his treasure in the forest . No further explanation is ever given as to why , having buried his money near Montfermeil , Valjean had traveled back to Paris and then attempted to travel back to Montfermeil .

                      The planet Mars has two permanent polar ice caps . During a pole 's winter , it lies in continuous darkness , chilling the surface and causing the deposition of 25 -- 30 % of the atmosphere into slabs of CO ice ( dry ice ) . When the poles are again exposed to sunlight , the frozen CO sublimes , creating enormous winds that sweep off the poles as fast as 400 km / h . These seasonal actions transport large amounts of dust and water vapor , giving rise to Earth - like frost and large cirrus clouds . Clouds of water - ice were photographed by the Opportunity rover in 2004 .

                      The Bantu Education Act , 1953 ( Act No. 47 of 1953 ; later renamed the Black Education Act , 1953 ) was a South African segregation law which legalised several aspects of the apartheid system . Its major provision was enforcing racially separated educational facilities . Even universities were made `` tribal '' , and all but three missionary schools chose to close down when the government no longer would help support their schools . Very few authorities continued using their own finances to support education for native Africans . In 1959 , this type of education was extended to `` non white '' universities and colleges with the Extension of University Education Act , and the internationally prestigious University College of Fort Hare was taken over by the government and degraded to being part of the Bantu education system . It is often argued that the policy of Bantu ( African ) education was aimed to direct black or non-white youth to the unskilled labour market , although Hendrik Verwoerd , at the time Minister of Native Affairs , claimed that the aim was to solve South Africa 's `` ethnic problems '' by creating complementary economic and political units for different ethnic groups .

                      Much of Elena 's story revolves around her relationships with vampires Stefan Salvatore and his older brother , Damon . It is revealed that Elena is a Petrova Doppelgänger , which is thus responsible for her being identical to her ancestor , Katherine Pierce ( née Katerina Petrova ) . This also has the implication of making her a supernatural creature . Dobrev portrayed the `` conniving '' Katherine as well , who is opposite of Elena . The actress stated that it has been a challenge distinguishing the two , and enjoys playing them both . In the television series 's fourth season , Elena becomes a vampire and deals with the struggles that come with her change . She took the cure and became human again towards the end of the sixth season . In the finale of the sixth season , Kai linked Elena to Bonnie 's life by magic . Elena will only wake up when Bonnie dies in around 60 years . She was locked inside the Salvatore tomb , which was changed in the seventh season , and was relocated in Brooklyn , New York . In late 2016 , when it was announced that the eighth season would be the final season , Dobrev was in talks about returning to the television series to reprise her role in the final episode . After much speculation . Dobrev 's return was confirmed on January 26 , 2017 , via an Instagram post . Dobrev appeared in the final episode of the show as both Elena and her evil doppelgänger Katherine Pierce .

                      In season four , Elena is faced with the tough decision of whether to die or to feed on human blood so she can fully transition into a vampire . Elena , after realizing Stefan 's desperation to keep her alive , decides to complete her transition . Her relationship with Stefan ends , allowing her to begin a proper romance with Damon . Although , it is later revealed there is a sire bond between them . Sometime later whilst searching for the cure for vampirism , Jeremy is fed to the immortal Silas by Katherine . As a result , Damon used the sire bond to convince her to turn off her humanity , due to her incredible grief over losing her brother and the last remaining member of her family . Elena became ruthless without her emotions , going on killing sprees and being very hateful towards her friends . Towards the end of season four , Damon kills Matt in front of Elena to trigger her grief . After revealing that Matt had the Gilbert Ring on , Elena 's humanity was switched on and her emotions were focused on hate towards Katherine for killing Jeremy . Season four ended with Bonnie as a ghost after bringing Jeremy back to life and Elena fed Katherine the cure for vampirism in a moment of desperation as she was about to be killed . Elena had chosen Damon as the Salvatore that she loved .

We are told that Paul had left Timothy in Ephesus and Titus in Crete to oversee the local church ( 1Tim 1 : 3 and Titus 1 : 5 ) . Paul commands Titus to ordain presbyters / bishops and to exercise general oversight , telling him to `` rebuke with all authority '' ( Titus 2 : 15 ) .

                      Led by Hall of Famers Elgin Baylor and Jerry West , Los Angeles made the NBA Finals six times in the 1960s , but lost each series to the Boston Celtics , beginning their long and storied rivalry . In 1968 , the Lakers acquired four - time NBA Most Valuable Player ( MVP ) Wilt Chamberlain to play center , and after losing in the Finals in 1969 and 1970 , they won their sixth NBA title -- and first in Los Angeles -- in 1972 , led by new head coach Bill Sharman . After the retirement of West and Chamberlain , the team acquired another center , Kareem Abdul - Jabbar , who had won multiple MVP awards , but was unable to make the Finals in the late 1970s . The 1980s Lakers were nicknamed `` Showtime '' due to their Magic Johnson - led fast break - offense , and won five championships in a 9 - year span , including their first ever Finals championship against the Celtics in 1985 . This team featured Hall of Famers in Johnson , Abdul - Jabbar , and James Worthy , and a Hall of Fame coach , Pat Riley . After Abdul - Jabbar and Johnson 's retirement , the team struggled in the early 1990s before acquiring Shaquille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant in 1996 . Led by O'Neal , Bryant , and another Hall of Fame coach , Phil Jackson , Los Angeles won three consecutive titles between 2000 to 2002 , securing the franchise its second `` three - peat '' . After losing both the 2004 and 2008 NBA Finals , the Lakers won two more championships by defeating the Orlando Magic in 2009 and Boston in 2010 .

                      During the Second World War , Turing worked for the Government Code and Cypher School ( GC&CS ) at Bletchley Park , Britain 's codebreaking centre that produced Ultra intelligence . For a time he led Hut 8 , the section which was responsible for German naval cryptanalysis . Here he devised a number of techniques for speeding the breaking of German ciphers , including improvements to the pre-war Polish bombe method , an electromechanical machine that could find settings for the Enigma machine . Turing played a pivotal role in cracking intercepted coded messages that enabled the Allies to defeat the Nazis in many crucial engagements , including the Battle of the Atlantic , and in so doing helped win the war . Counterfactual history is difficult with respect to the effect Ultra intelligence had on the length of the war , but at the upper end it has been estimated that this work shortened the war in Europe by more than two years and saved over fourteen million lives .

                      Guthridge retired in 2000 and North Carolina turned to Matt Doherty , the head coach at Notre Dame and a player on the 1982 championship team , to lead the Tar Heels . Doherty had little success while at North Carolina . In his first season , the Heels were ranked # 1 in the polls in the middle of the Atlantic Coast Conference schedule and finished with a 26 -- 7 record . But Doherty 's second season was the worst in recent history as the Tar Heels finished the season with a record of 8 -- 20 , missing postseason play entirely for the first time since the 1965 -- 66 season ( including a record 27 straight NCAA Tournament appearances ) and finishing with a losing record for the first time since 1962 ( Dean Smith 's first year as coach ) . They also finished 4 -- 12 in the ACC -- only the program 's second losing ACC record ever . The 12 losses were six more than the Tar Heels had ever suffered in a single season of ACC play , and placed them in a tie for 7th place -- the program 's first finish below fourth place ever . The season also saw the end of UNC 's run of 31 straight 20 - win seasons and 35 straight seasons of finishing third or higher in the ACC . After bringing in one of the top 5 incoming classes for the 2002 -- 2003 season , the Tar Heels started the season by knocking off a top 5 Kansas team and going on to win the Preseason NIT and returning to the AP top 25 . North Carolina went on to finish the season 17 -- 15 , missing the NCAA tournament . Matt Doherty led the Tar Heels to the third round of the NIT , where they ended their season with a loss to Georgetown .

                      Many residents of metropolitan regions work within the central urban area , and choose to live in satellite communities called suburbs and commute to work via automobile or mass transit . Others have taken advantage of technological advances to work from their homes . These processes often occur in more economically developed countries , especially in the United States , which is believed to be the first country in which the majority of the population lives in the suburbs , rather than in the cities or in rural areas . Proponents of containing urban sprawl argue that sprawl leads to urban decay and a concentration of lower income residents in the inner city .

Wood was a fan of the book , and he sent in an audition dressed as Frodo , reading lines from the novel . Wood was selected from 150 actors who auditioned , including Jake Gyllenhaal .
                      • Ian McKellen as Gandalf the Grey : an Istari wizard and mentor to Frodo . Sean Connery was approached for the role , but did not understand the plot , while Patrick Stewart turned it down as he disliked the script . Before being cast , McKellen had to sort his schedule with 20th Century Fox as there was a two - month overlap with X-Men . He enjoyed playing Gandalf the Grey more than his transformed state in the next two films , and based his accent on Tolkien . Unlike his on - screen character , McKellen did not spend much time with the actors playing the Hobbits ; instead he worked with their scale doubles .
                      • Sean Astin as Samwise `` Sam '' Gamgee : a hobbit gardener and Frodo 's best friend . Astin , who had recently become a father , bonded with the 18 - year - old Wood in a protective manner , which mirrored Sam 's relationship with Frodo .
                      • Viggo Mortensen as Aragorn II Elessar : a Dúnedain ranger , the descendant of Isildur , and heir to Gondor 's throne . Daniel Day - Lewis was offered the part at the beginning of pre-production , but turned it down . Nicolas Cage also received an offer , declining because of `` family obligations '' , while Vin Diesel , a fan of the book , auditioned for Aragorn . Stuart Townsend was cast in the role , before being replaced during filming when Jackson realised he was too young . Russell Crowe was considered as a replacement , but he turned it down after taking what he thought to be a similar role in Gladiator . Day - Lewis was offered the role for a second time , but declined again . Executive Producer Mark Ordesky saw Mortensen in a play . Mortensen 's son , a fan of the book , convinced him to take the role . Mortensen read the book on the plane , received a crash course lesson in fencing from Bob Anderson and began filming the scenes on Weathertop . Mortensen became a hit with the crew by patching up his costume and carrying his `` hero '' sword around with him off - camera .
                      • Billy Boyd as Peregrin `` Pippin '' Took : a hobbit who travels with the Fellowship on their journey to Mordor .

                      • John Rhys - Davies as Gimli : a dwarf warrior who accompanies the Fellowship to Mordor after they set out from Rivendell and a descendant of Durin 's Folk . Billy Connolly , who was considered for the part of Gimli , later portrayed Dáin II Ironfoot in Peter Jackson 's The Hobbit film trilogy . Rhys - Davies wore heavy prosthetics to play Gimli , which limited his vision , and eventually developed eczema around his eyes .
                      • Orlando Bloom as Legolas Greenleaf : a prince of the elves ' Woodland Realm and a skilled archer . Bloom initially auditioned for Faramir , who appears in the second film , a role which went to David Wenham .

Holm previously played Frodo in a 1981 radio adaption of The Lord of the Rings , and was cast as Bilbo after Jackson remembered his performance . Sylvester McCoy , who would later play Radagast the Brown in The Hobbit , was contacted about playing the role , and was kept in place as a potential Bilbo for six months before Jackson went with Holm .

                        The terrestrial biosphere includes the organic carbon in all land - living organisms , both alive and dead , as well as carbon stored in soils . About 500 gigatons of carbon are stored above ground in plants and other living organisms , while soil holds approximately 1,500 gigatons of carbon . Most carbon in the terrestrial biosphere is organic carbon , while about a third of soil carbon is stored in inorganic forms , such as calcium carbonate . Organic carbon is a major component of all organisms living on earth . Autotrophs extract it from the air in the form of carbon dioxide , converting it into organic carbon , while heterotrophs receive carbon by consuming other organisms .

                        Blond hair can have almost any proportion of pheomelanin and eumelanin , but has only small amounts of both . More pheomelanin creates a more golden or strawberry blond color , and more eumelanin creates an ash or sandy blond color . Many children born with blond hair develop darker hair as they age , with the majority of natural blonds developing a hair color of a dark blond hue by the time they reach middle age . Pregnancy hormones hasten this process . Natural light blond hair is rare in adulthood , with claims of the world 's population ranging from 2 % naturally blond to 16 % in the US . Blond hair is most commonly found in Northern and Western Europeans and their descendants but can be found spread around most of Europe . Studies in 2012 showed that naturally blond hair of Melanesians is caused by a recessive mutation in tyrosinase - related protein 1 ( TYRP1 ) . In the Solomon Islands , 26 % of the population carry the gene ; however , it is absent outside of Oceania .

                        Principal photography began on October 6 , 1975 in Lake Powell . A rift between Eastwood and Kaufman developed during the filming . Kaufman insisted on filming with a meticulous attention to detail , which caused disagreements with Eastwood , not to mention the attraction the two shared towards Locke and apparent jealousy on Kaufman 's part in regards to their emerging relationship . One evening , Kaufman insisted on finding a beer can as a prop to be used in a scene , but while he was absent , Eastwood ordered Surtees to quickly shoot the scene as light was fading and then drove away , leaving before Kaufman had returned . Soon after , filming moved to Kanab , Utah . On October 24 , 1975 , Kaufman was fired at Eastwood 's command by producer Bob Daley . The sacking caused an outrage amongst the Directors Guild of America and other important Hollywood executives , since the director had already worked hard on the film , including completing all of the pre-production . Pressure mounted on Warner Bros. and Eastwood to back down , but their refusal to do so resulted in a fine , reported to be around $60,000 for the violation . This resulted in the Director 's Guild passing new legislation , known as ' the Eastwood Rule ' , which prohibits an actor or producer from firing the director and then becoming the director himself . From then on , the film was directed by Eastwood himself with Daley second - in - command , but with Kaufman 's planning already in place , the team were able to finish making the film efficiently .

                        Currently , environmental groups and some governments are concerned with the extinction of species caused by humanity , and they try to prevent further extinctions through a variety of conservation programs . Humans can cause extinction of a species through overharvesting , pollution , habitat destruction , introduction of invasive species ( such as new predators and food competitors ) , overhunting , and other influences . Explosive , unsustainable human population growth is an essential cause of the extinction crisis . According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature ( IUCN ) , 784 extinctions have been recorded since the year 1500 , the arbitrary date selected to define `` recent '' extinctions , up to the year 2004 ; with many more likely to have gone unnoticed . Several species have also been listed as extinct since 2004 .

                        In the United Kingdom , draught beer must be sold in Imperial measure ( see Pint § Effects of metrication ) . United Kingdom law requires certain steps be taken to ensure that a pint of beer is indeed a pint . Though this can be achieved using `` metered dispense '' ( calibrated pumps ) , the more common solution is to use certified one - pint glasses . Until recently these had a crown stamp indicating that the certification had been done by an agency of the Crown . The number etched upon the glasses stands for the manufacturing company or site . Most pint glasses used in the United Kingdom today have actually been produced in France .

                        Hydrogen bonds can occur between molecules ( intermolecular ) or within different parts of a single molecule ( intramolecular ) . Depending on the nature of the donor and acceptor atoms which constitute the bond , their geometry , and environment , the energy of a hydrogen bond can vary between 1 and 40 kcal / mol . This makes them somewhat stronger than a van der Waals interaction , and weaker than covalent or ionic bonds . This type of bond can occur in inorganic molecules such as water and in organic molecules like DNA and proteins .

                        The Roman Catholic holy day of All Saints ( or All Hallows ) was introduced in the year 609 , but was originally celebrated on 13 May . In 835 , Louis the Pious switched it to 1 November in the Carolingian Empire , at the behest of Pope Gregory IV . However , from the testimony of Pseudo-Bede , it is known that churches in what are now England and Germany were already celebrating All Saints on 1 November at the beginning of the 8th century . Thus , Louis merely made official the custom of celebrating it on 1 November . James Frazer suggests that 1 November was chosen because it was the date of the Celtic festival of the dead ( Samhain ) -- the Celts had influenced their English neighbours , and English missionaries had influenced the Germans . However , Ronald Hutton points out that , according to Óengus of Tallaght ( d . ca . 824 ) , the 7th / 8th century church in Ireland celebrated All Saints on 20 April . He suggests that the 1 November date was a Germanic rather than a Celtic idea . In the 11th century , 2 November became established as All Souls ' Day . This created the three - day observance known as Allhallowtide : All Hallows ' Eve ( 31 October ) , All Hallows ' Day ( 1 November ) , and All Souls ' Day ( 2 November ) .

                        Fleet vehicles are groups of motor vehicles owned or leased by a business , government agency or other organization rather than by an individual or family . Typical examples are vehicles operated by car rental companies , taxicab companies , public utilities , public bus companies , and police departments .

In some jurisdictions and countries , fleet vehicle also means vehicles that are privately owned by employees , or on novated leases , but are used for work purposes ; this is called the ' grey fleet ' .

It has been described as `` an appeal to human compassion '' . The first lines in the song 's repetitive chorus proclaim , `` We are the world , we are the children , we are the ones who make a brighter day , so let 's start giving '' . `` We Are the World '' opens with Lionel Richie , Stevie Wonder , Paul Simon , Kenny Rogers , James Ingram , Tina Turner , and Billy Joel singing the first verse .

Co-writer Jackson , Huey Lewis , Cyndi Lauper , and Kim Carnes follow with the song 's bridge . This structuring of the song is said to `` create a sense of continuous surprise and emotional buildup '' . `` We Are the World '' concludes with Bob Dylan and Ray Charles singing a full chorus , Wonder and Springsteen duetting , and ad libs from Charles and Ingram .

His only companion is his unloved , but loyal dog , Max . From his cave , the Grinch can hear the noisy Christmas festivities that take place in Whoville . Continuously annoyed , he decides to devise a wicked scheme by stealing their presents , trees , and food for their Christmas feast . He crudely disguises himself as Santa Claus , and forces Max , disguised as a reindeer , to drag a sleigh down the mountain towards Whoville . Once at Whoville , the Grinch slides down the chimney of one house and steals all of the Whos ' Christmas presents , the Christmas tree , and the log for their fire . He is briefly interrupted in his burglary by Cindy Lou , a little Who girl , but concocts a crafty lie to effect his escape from her home . After stealing from one house , he does the same thing to all the other houses in the village of Whoville .

                        This species is capable of delivering a fatal bite and the victim may receive a large quantity of venom with a dose of 200 to 500 mg up to 7 ml . Engelmann and Obst ( 1981 ) list the average venom yield at 420 mg ( dry weight ) . Accordingly , large quantities of antivenom may be needed to reverse the progression of symptoms developed if bitten by a king cobra . The toxins affect the victim 's central nervous system , resulting in severe pain , blurred vision , vertigo , drowsiness , and eventually paralysis . If the envenomation is serious , it progresses to cardiovascular collapse , and the victim falls into a coma . Death soon follows due to respiratory failure . Bites from a king cobra may result in a rapid fatality which can be as early as 30 minutes after the envenomation . The king cobra 's envenomation was even recorded to be capable of killing elephants within hours .

                        Since the creation of the Football League in 1888 , the final has never been contested by two teams from outside the top division , and there have only been eight winners who were not in the top flight : Notts County ( 1894 ) ; Tottenham Hotspur ( 1901 ) ; Wolverhampton Wanderers ( 1908 ) ; Barnsley ( 1912 ) ; West Bromwich Albion ( 1931 ) ; Sunderland ( 1973 ) , Southampton ( 1976 ) and West Ham United ( 1980 ) . With the exception of Tottenham , these clubs were all playing in the second tier ( the old Second Division ) -- Tottenham were playing in the Southern League and were only elected to the Football League in 1908 , meaning they are the only non-League winners of the FA Cup since the League 's creation . Other than Tottenham 's victory , only 24 finalists have come from outside English football 's top tier , with a record of 7 wins and 17 runners - up : and none at all from the third tier or lower , Southampton ( 1902 , then in the Southern League ) being the last finalist from outside the top two tiers .

                        Prohibition also had an effect on the music industry in the United States , specifically with jazz . Speakeasies became very popular , and the Great Depression 's migratory effects led to the dispersal of jazz music , from New Orleans going north through Chicago and to New York . This led to the development of different styles in different cities . Due to its popularity in speakeasies and the emergence of advanced recording technology , jazz 's popularity skyrocketed . It was also at the forefront of the minimal integration efforts going on at the time , as it united mostly black musicians with mostly white audiences .

The news of gold brought some 300,000 people to California from the rest of the United States and abroad . The sudden influx of immigration and gold into the money supply reinvigorated the American economy , and California became one of the few American states to go directly to statehood without first being a territory , in the Compromise of 1850 . The Gold Rush had severe effects on Native Californians and resulted in a precipitous population decline from disease , genocide and starvation . By the time it ended , California had gone from a thinly populated ex-Mexican territory to the home state of the first nominee for the Republican Party .

                        In chemistry , pH ( / piːˈ ( h ) eɪ tʃ / ) ( potential of hydrogen ) is a numeric scale used to specify the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution . It is approximately the negative of the base 10 logarithm of the molar concentration , measured in units of moles per liter , of hydrogen ions . More precisely it is the negative of the base 10 logarithm of the activity of the hydrogen ion . Solutions with a pH less than 7 are acidic and solutions with a pH greater than 7 are basic . Pure water is neutral , at pH 7 ( 25 ° C ) , being neither an acid nor a base . Contrary to popular belief , the pH value can be less than 0 or greater than 14 for very strong acids and bases respectively .

                        Startup neutron source is a neutron source used for stable and reliable initiation of nuclear chain reaction in nuclear reactors , when they are loaded with fresh nuclear fuel , whose neutron flux from spontaneous fission is insufficient for a reliable startup , or after prolonged shutdown periods . Neutron sources ensure a constant minimal population of neutrons in the reactor core , sufficient for a smooth startup . Without them , the reactor could suffer fast power excursions during startup from state with too few self - generated neutrons ( new core or after extended shutdown ) .

                        Big Star 's original version of the song was not used on the show . Instead , a cover version sung by Todd Griffin was used as the theme song for the show 's first season . Beginning in the second season , the theme song was performed by the band Cheap Trick . Unlike previous versions of the song , Cheap Trick ended the song with the repeated phrase `` We 're all alright ! '' quoting the ending of their 1978 hit song `` Surrender '' .

Kyrie Irving , winner of the 2014 All - Star Game MVP , is the second - youngest at 21 years , 10 months . They are notable as being the two youngest to win the award , both as Cleveland Cavaliers . Four of the games had joint winners -- Elgin Baylor and Pettit in 1959 , John Stockton and Malone in 1993 , O'Neal and Tim Duncan in 2000 , and O'Neal and Bryant in 2009 . O'Neal became the first player in All - Star history to share two MVP awards as well as the first player to win the award with multiple teams . The Los Angeles Lakers have had eleven winners while the Boston Celtics have had eight . Duncan of the U.S. Virgin Islands and Irving of Australia are the only winners not born in the United States . Both Duncan and Irving are American citizens , but are considered `` international '' players by the NBA because they were not born in one of the fifty states or Washington , D.C. No player trained entirely outside the U.S. has won the award ; Irving lived in the U.S. since age two , and Duncan played U.S. college basketball at Wake Forest .

                        The phrase baby boom refers to a noticeable increase in the birth rate . The post-war population increase was described as a `` boom '' by various newspaper reporters , including Sylvia F. Porter in a column for the May 4 , 1951 , edition of the New York Post , based on the increase in the population of the U.S. of 2,357,000 in 1950 . According to the Oxford English Dictionary , the first recorded use of `` baby boomer '' is from 1970 in an article in The Washington Post . Various authors have delimited the baby boom period differently . Landon Jones , in his book Great Expectations : America and the Baby Boom Generation ( 1980 ) , defined the span of the baby - boom generation as extending from 1943 through 1960 , when annual births increased over 4,000,000 . Authors William Strauss and Neil Howe , well known for their generational theory , define the social generation of Boomers as that cohort born from 1943 to 1960 , who were too young to have any personal memory of World War II , but old enough to remember the postwar American High .

                        The recorded history of Maryland dates back to when Europeans began exploring the area , starting with the Italian / Venetian John Cabot ( c. 1450 -- c. 1500 ) , exploring the coast of the continent of North America for England in 1498 . The first European settlements were made in 1634 , when the English arrived in significant numbers and created a permanent colony . Maryland was notable for having been established with religious freedom for Roman Catholics . Like other colonies of the Chesapeake Bay , its economy was based on tobacco as a commodity crop , cultivated primarily by African slave labor , although many young people came from Britain as indentured servants in the early years .

                        The National Football League Draft , also called the Player Selection Meeting , is an annual event in which it serves as the league 's most common source of player recruitment . The basic design of the draft is that each team is given a position in the drafting order in reverse order relative to its record in the previous year , which means that the last place team is positioned first . From this position , the team can either select a player or trade their position to another team for other draft positions , a player or players , or any combination thereof . The round is complete when each team has either selected a player or traded its draft position . Certain aspects of the draft , including team positioning and the number of rounds in the draft , have seen revisions since its first creation in 1936 , but the fundamental methodology has remained the same . Currently the draft consists of seven rounds . The original rationale in creating the draft was to increase the competitive parity between the teams as the worst team would , ideally , have chosen the best player available .

                        The NFL Scouting Combine is a six - day assessment of skills occurring every year in late February or early March in Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis , Indiana . College football players perform physical and mental tests in front of NFL coaches , general managers , and scouts . With increasing interest in the NFL draft , the scouting combine has grown in scope and significance , allowing personnel directors to evaluate upcoming prospects in a standardized setting . Its origins have evolved from the National , BLESTO , and Quadra Scouting services in 1977 to the media frenzy it has become today . Athletes attend by invitation only . Implications of one 's performance during the Combine can affect perception , draft status , salary , and ultimately his career . The draft has popularized the term `` Workout Warrior '' ( sometimes known as a `` Workout Wonder '' ) , describing an athlete who , based on superior measurables such as size , speed , and strength , has increased his `` draft stock '' despite having a possibly average or subpar college career .

In 2011 , the IRB approved the use of the Millennium Stadium , despite being outside of the host country , due to its capacity and strategic location . Of the thirteen venues , two were dedicated rugby union grounds ( Kingsholm Stadium and Sandy Park ) , two were national rugby stadia ( Twickenham and the Millennium Stadium ) , two were multi-purpose stadia ( Wembley Stadium and Olympic Stadium ) , and the remainder were association football grounds .

                        As in Scandinavia , healthcare in the United Kingdom is a devolved matter , meaning England , Northern Ireland , Scotland and Wales each have their own systems of private and publicly funded healthcare , generally referred to as the National Health Service ( NHS ) . With largely private providers , this also fits into the ' Beveridge Model ' of health care systems , sometimes considered to be single - payer , although unlike Scandinavia , there is a more significant role for both private coverage and providers . Each country 's having different policies and priorities has resulted in a variety of differences existing between the systems . That said , each country provides public healthcare to all UK permanent residents that is free at the point of use , being paid for from general taxation .

                        Once the Committee reports out the nomination , the whole Senate considers it . A simple majority vote is required to confirm or to reject a nominee . Prior to 2017 , a successful filibuster threat could add the requirement of a supermajority of 60 needed in favor of cloture , which would allow debate to end and force a final vote on confirmation . Rejections are relatively uncommon ; the Senate has explicitly rejected twelve Supreme Court nominees in its history . The most recent rejection of a nominee by vote of the full Senate came in 1987 , when the Senate refused to confirm Robert Bork .

                        Through the work of Max Planck , Albert Einstein , Louis de Broglie , Arthur Compton , Niels Bohr and many others , current scientific theory holds that all particles also have a wave nature ( and vice versa ) . This phenomenon has been verified not only for elementary particles , but also for compound particles like atoms and even molecules . For macroscopic particles , because of their extremely short wavelengths , wave properties usually can not be detected .

                        Water is distributed across earth . Most water in the Earth 's atmosphere and crust comes from the world ocean 's saline seawater , while freshwater accounts for only 2.5 % of the total . Because the oceans that cover roughly 78 % of the area of the Earth reflect blue light , the Earth appears blue from space , and is often referred to as the blue planet and the Pale Blue Dot . An estimated 1.5 to 11 times the amount of water in the oceans may be found hundreds of miles deep within the Earth 's interior , although not in liquid form .

                        The longest word in any of the major English language dictionaries is pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis , a word that refers to a lung disease contracted from the inhalation of very fine silica particles , specifically from a volcano ; medically , it is the same as silicosis . The word was deliberately coined to be the longest word in English , and has since been used in a close approximation of its originally intended meaning , lending at least some degree of validity to its claim .

The symbol nfr , meaning beautiful , was also used to indicate the base level in drawings of tombs and pyramids and distances were measured relative to the base line as being above or below this line .

They are particularly prized in Chinese culture due to their rarity , and supposedly high nutritional value and exquisite flavor . Edible bird 's nests are among the most expensive animal products consumed by humans , with nests being sold recently at prices up to about US $ 2,000 per kilogram , depending on grading . The type or grading of bird 's nest depends on the type of bird as well as the diet of the bird . It differs in colour from white to dark brown . The Chinese believe that it promotes good health , especially for the skin . The nests have been used in Chinese cooking for over 400 years , most often as bird 's nest soup .

                        Alfred P. Aldrich , a South Carolinian politician from Barnwell , stated that declaring secession would be necessary if a Republican candidate were to win the 1860 U.S. presidential election , stating that it was the only way for the state to preserve slavery and diminish the influence of the anti-slavery Republican Party , which , were its goals of abolition realized , would result in the `` destruction of the South '' :

                        If one used Planck 's energy quanta , and demanded that electromagnetic radiation at a given frequency could only transfer energy to matter in integer multiples of an energy quantum hν , then the photoelectric effect could be explained very simply . Low - frequency light only ejects low - energy electrons because each electron is excited by the absorption of a single photon . Increasing the intensity of the low - frequency light ( increasing the number of photons ) only increases the number of excited electrons , not their energy , because the energy of each photon remains low . Only by increasing the frequency of the light , and thus increasing the energy of the photons , can one eject electrons with higher energy . Thus , using Planck 's constant h to determine the energy of the photons based upon their frequency , the energy of ejected electrons should also increase linearly with frequency ; the gradient of the line being Planck 's constant . These results were not confirmed until 1915 , when Robert Andrews Millikan , who had previously determined the charge of the electron , produced experimental results in perfect accord with Einstein 's predictions . While the energy of ejected electrons reflected Planck 's constant , the existence of photons was not explicitly proven until the discovery of the photon antibunching effect , of which a modern experiment can be performed in undergraduate - level labs . This phenomenon could only be explained via photons , and not through any semi-classical theory ( which could alternatively explain the photoelectric effect ) . When Einstein received his Nobel Prize in 1921 , it was not for his more difficult and mathematically laborious special and general relativity , but for the simple , yet totally revolutionary , suggestion of quantized light . Einstein 's `` light quanta '' would not be called photons until 1925 , but even in 1905 they represented the quintessential example of wave - particle duality . Electromagnetic radiation propagates following linear wave equations , but can only be emitted or absorbed as discrete elements , thus acting as a wave and a particle simultaneously .

                        The rules governing the use of zero appeared for the first time in Brahmagupta 's Brahmasputha Siddhanta ( 7th century ) . This work considers not only zero , but negative numbers , and the algebraic rules for the elementary operations of arithmetic with such numbers . In some instances , his rules differ from the modern standard , specifically the definition of the value of zero divided by zero as zero .

                        Possibilism in cultural geography is the theory that the environment sets certain constraints or limitations , but culture is otherwise determined by social conditions . In Cultural ecology Marshall Sahlins used this concept in order to develop alternative approaches to the environmental determinism dominant at that time in ecological studies . Theory by Strabo in 64 BC that humans can make things happen by their own intelligence over time . Strabo cautioned against the assumption that nature and actions of humans were determined by the physical environment they inhabited . He observed that humans were the active elements in a human - environmental partnership .

                        Full - time employment is employment in which a person works a minimum number of hours defined as such by his / her employer . Full - time employment often comes with benefits that are not typically offered to part - time , temporary , or flexible workers , such as annual leave , sickleave , and health insurance . Part - time jobs are mistakenly thought by some to not be careers . However , legislation exists to stop employers from discriminating against part - time workers so this should not be a factor when making decisions on career advancement . They generally pay more than part - time jobs per hour , and this is similarly discriminatory if the pay decision is based on part - time status as a primary factor . The Fair Labor Standards Act ( FLSA ) does not define full - time employment or part - time employment . This is a matter generally to be determined by the employer ( US Department of Labor ) . The definition by employer can vary and is generally published in a company 's Employee Handbook . Companies commonly require from 35 to 40 hours per week to be defined as full - time and therefore eligible for benefits .

The first two were known as the `` AFL -- NFL World Championship Game '' . Super Bowl III in January 1969 was the first such game that carried the `` Super Bowl '' moniker , the names `` Super Bowl I '' and `` Super Bowl II '' were only retroactively applied to the first two games . The NFC / NFL leads in Super Bowl wins with 26 , while the AFC / AFL has won 25 . Nineteen different franchises , including teams that relocated to another city , have won the Super Bowl .

In general , an internet was any network using TCP / IP . It was around the time when ARPANET was interlinked with NSFNET in the late 1980s , that the term was used as the name of the network , Internet , being the large and global TCP / IP network .

Introduced by Bradley Bell , she is currently portrayed by Jacqueline MacInnes Wood . Steffy and her twin sister Phoebe ( MacKenzie Mauzy ) were born onscreen as the daughters of supercouple Ridge Forrester ( Ronn Moss , later Thorsten Kaye ) and Taylor Hayes ( Hunter Tylo ) during the episode airing on September 21 , 1999 . For the character 's first five - year period , she appeared as a minor . In 2005 , Steffy was rapidly aged to a teenager , and in 2008 she appeared as an adult when Wood took over the role . Wood portrayed the role continuously until 2013 , when she decided to leave her regular capacity with the series ; following a series of guest appearances , Wood returned as a series regular in 2015 .

                        British anti-invasion preparations of 1803 -- 05 were the military and civilian responses in the United Kingdom to Napoleon 's planned invasion of the United Kingdom . They included mobilization of the population on a scale not previously attempted in Britain , with a combined military force of over 615,000 in December 1803 . Much of the southern English coast was fortified to repel a French landing . However Napoleon never attempted his planned invasion and so the preparations were never put to the test .

                        The video begins with a car ( 1972 Plymouth Barracuda ) pulling into a creepy alleyway with Corey Taylor being pulled out of the trunk by his bandmates . He is then lead upstairs to be strapped into a chair and interrogated by a woman ( Joanna Moskawa ) who seems to have an aggression towards him . As this is happening , ghostly images of the band perform in front of each member , the video also features these images solo inside an abandoned warehouse including Taylor . Taylor is then blindfolded and then a weird screen is brought out . Corey then walks into the room from the shadows , with a shaved head , wearing a suit and sunglasses . He takes the sunglasses off and then the blindfold is removed , revealing the woman from before . At the end of the solo and the final `` everything to '' shaved Corey presses the button and the other Corey is then seen singing on the screen . The lady panics from this sight and the rest of the band have smiles on their faces . At the end of the video the band leaves the lady tied . Right before it fades to black , the screen says `` What did you see ? '' This was part of a contest that the band held to see the concept of the video , which had a code which read `` I am you '' which explains the fact Corey was replaced with the woman .

                        Sunflowers ( original title , in French : Tournesols ) is the name of two series of still life paintings by the Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh . The first series , executed in Paris in 1887 , depicts the flowers lying on the ground , while the second set , executed a year later in Arles , shows a bouquet of sunflowers in a vase . In the artist 's mind both sets were linked by the name of his friend Paul Gauguin , who acquired two of the Paris versions . About eight months later van Gogh hoped to welcome and to impress Gauguin again with Sunflowers , now part of the painted Décoration for the Yellow House that he prepared for the guestroom of his home in Arles , where Gauguin was supposed to stay . After Gauguin 's departure , van Gogh imagined the two major versions as wings of the Berceuse Triptych , and finally he included them in his Les XX in Bruxelles exhibit .

                          The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria , heir presumptive to the Austro - Hungarian throne , and his wife Sophie , Duchess of Hohenberg , occurred on 28 June 1914 in Sarajevo when they were mortally wounded by Gavrilo Princip . Princip was one of a group of six assassins ( five Serbs and one Bosniak ) coordinated by Danilo Ilić , a Bosnian Serb and a member of the Black Hand secret society . The political objective of the assassination was to break off Austria - Hungary 's South Slav provinces so they could be combined into a Yugoslavia . The assassins ' motives were consistent with the movement that later became known as Young Bosnia . The assassination led directly to the First World War when Austria - Hungary subsequently issued an ultimatum to the Kingdom of Serbia , which was partially rejected . Austria - Hungary then declared war , triggering actions leading to war between most European states .

                          In 1924 , Erich von Stroheim attempted a literal adaptation of Frank Norris 's novel McTeague with his moving picture Greed , and the resulting film was 91⁄2 hours long . It was cut , at studio insistence , to four hours , then without Stroheim 's input , cut again to around two hours . The end result was a film that was largely incoherent . Since that time , few directors have attempted to put everything in a novel into a film . Therefore , elision is all but essential .

                          Gases are constantly consumed and produced by cellular and metabolic reactions in most living things , so an efficient system for gas exchange between , ultimately , the interior of the cell ( s ) and the external environment is required . Small , particularly unicellular organisms , such as bacteria and protozoa , have a high surface - area to volume ratio . In these creatures the gas exchange membrane is typically the cell membrane . Some small multicellular organisms , such as flatworms , are also able to perform sufficient gas exchange across the skin or cuticle that surrounds their bodies . However , in most larger organisms , which have a small surface - area to volume ratios , specialised structures with convoluted surfaces such as gills , pulmonary alveoli and spongy mesophyll provide the large area needed for effective gas exchange . These convoluted surfaces may sometimes be internalised into the body of the organism . This is the case with the alveoli , which form the inner surface of the mammalian lung , the spongy mesophyll , which is found inside the leaves of some kinds of plant , or the gills of those molluscs that have them , which are found in the mantle cavity .

                          The book , which was Rowling 's debut novel , was written between approximately June 1990 and some time in 1995 . In 1990 Jo Rowling , as she preferred to be known , wanted to move with her boyfriend to a flat in Manchester and in her words , `` One weekend after flat hunting , I took the train back to London on my own and the idea for Harry Potter fell into my head ... A scrawny , little , black - haired , bespectacled boy became more and more of a wizard to me ... I began to write Philosopher 's Stone that very evening . Although , the first couple of pages look nothing like the finished product . '' Then Rowling 's mother died and , to cope with her pain , Rowling transferred her own anguish to the orphan Harry . Rowling spent six years working on Harry Potter and the Philosopher 's Stone , and after it was accepted by Bloomsbury , she obtained a grant of £ 8,000 from the Scottish Arts Council , which enabled her to plan the sequels . She sent the book to an agent and a publisher , and then the second agent she approached spent a year trying to sell the book to publishers , most of whom thought it was too long at about 90,000 words . Barry Cunningham , who was building a portfolio of distinctive fantasies by new authors for Bloomsbury Children 's Books , recommended accepting the book , and the eight - year - old daughter of Bloomsbury 's chief executive said it was `` so much better than anything else '' .

                          The Constitution was adopted by the Indian Constituent Assembly on 26 November 1949 , and came into effect on 26 January 1950 with a democratic government system , completing the country 's transition towards becoming an independent republic . 26 January was chosen as the Republic day because it was on this day in 1930 when Declaration of Indian Independence ( Purna Swaraj ) was proclaimed by the Indian National Congress as opposed to the Dominion status offered by British Regime .

                          The sedimentary rock cover of the continents of the Earth 's crust is extensive ( 73 % of the Earth 's current land surface ) , but the total contribution of sedimentary rocks is estimated to be only 8 % of the total volume of the crust . Sedimentary rocks are only a thin veneer over a crust consisting mainly of igneous and metamorphic rocks . Sedimentary rocks are deposited in layers as strata , forming a structure called bedding . The study of sedimentary rocks and rock strata provides information about the subsurface that is useful for civil engineering , for example in the construction of roads , houses , tunnels , canals or other structures . Sedimentary rocks are also important sources of natural resources like coal , fossil fuels , drinking water or ores .

                          Sedimentary rocks are types of rock that are formed by the deposition and subsequent cementation of that material at the Earth 's surface and within bodies of water . Sedimentation is the collective name for processes that cause mineral or organic particles ( detritus ) to settle in place . The particles that form a sedimentary rock by accumulating are called sediment . Before being deposited , the sediment was formed by weathering and erosion from the source area , and then transported to the place of deposition by water , wind , ice , mass movement or glaciers , which are called agents of denudation . Sedimentation may also occur as minerals precipitate from water solution or shells of aquatic creatures settle out of suspension .

                          The valley , running generally west to east , is understood to include everything along the Urubamba River between the town and Inca ruins at Písac westward to Machu Piccu , 100 kilometres ( 62 mi ) distant . The Sacred Valley has elevations above sea level along the river ranging from 3,000 metres ( 9,800 ft ) at Pisac to 2,050 metres ( 6,730 ft ) at the Urubamba River below the citadel of Macchu Piccu . On both sides of the river , the mountains rise to much higher elevations , especially to the south where two prominent mountains overlook the valley : Sahuasiray , 5,818 metres ( 19,088 ft ) and Veronica , 5,893 metres ( 19,334 ft ) in elevation . The intensely cultivated valley floor is about 1 kilometre ( 0.62 mi ) wide on average . Side valleys and agricultural terraces ( andenes ) expand the cultivatable area .

                          The biblical account relates that , approximately one year after the Israelites ' exodus from Egypt , the Ark was created according to the pattern given to Moses by God when the Israelites were encamped at the foot of biblical Mount Sinai . Thereafter , the gold - plated acacia chest was carried by its staves while en route by the Levites approximately 2,000 cubits ( approximately 800 meters or 2,600 feet ) in advance of the people when on the march or before the Israelite army , the host of fighting men . When carried , the Ark was always hidden under a large veil made of skins and blue cloth , always carefully concealed , even from the eyes of the priests and the Levites who carried it . God was said to have spoken with Moses `` from between the two cherubim '' on the Ark 's cover . When at rest the tabernacle was set up and the holy Ark was placed under the veil of the covering , the staves of it crossing the middle side bars to hold it up off the ground .

'' Jefferson also placed special importance on declaring U.S. sovereignty over the land occupied by the many different tribes of Native Americans along the Missouri River , and getting an accurate sense of the resources in the recently completed Louisiana Purchase . The expedition made notable contributions to science , but scientific research was not the main goal of the mission .

                          The world 's longest suspension bridges are listed according to the length of their main span ( i.e. the length of suspended roadway between the bridge 's towers ) . The length of main span is the most common method of comparing the sizes of suspension bridges , often correlating with the height of the towers and the engineering complexity involved in designing and constructing the bridge . If one bridge has a longer span than another it does not necessarily mean that the bridge is longer from shore to shore ( or from abutment to abutment ) .

                          Dwight is the only person that Angela likes in the office . It is shown in `` E-mail Surveillance '' that Dwight and Angela have begun a romantic relationship . Although she has said she loves Dwight and cares about him , she refuses to tell anyone about their relationship , and is often made uncomfortable by Dwight 's passion for her . Their relationship is seemingly summarized in `` A.A.R.M. '' : when Dwight tells her that yelling through a megaphone expresses `` how loudly I love you '' , Angela meekly whispers `` It 's too loud . '' In `` Traveling Salesman '' Angela forgets to send an accounting folder to corporate , so Dwight drives to New York and gives the folder to them . After Dwight is told he would be fired if he did n't tell Michael why he went to New York , he keeps their relationship secret out of respect for Angela . Angela later tells Michael what happened , but still does n't reveal their relationship . In `` Fun Run '' Angela asks Dwight to feed her cat Sprinkles , who is feeling sick , but Dwight kills it , which causes Angela to break up with him . After Angela begins a relationship with Andy in Season 4 , she stops dating Dwight , but at the end of `` Goodbye Toby '' Phyllis sees Angela cheating on Andy with Dwight . Dwight ends their affair in `` The Duel '' after learning that she has been having sexual relations with Andy . In `` The Delivery '' Dwight , who wants to improve his sales by having a child , asks Angela to have his baby . The two write up a contract and plan to have a baby together , but in `` Happy Hour '' , Dwight hooks up with Pam 's friend Isabel , and tells Angela he does n't want her to have his baby . In `` The Chump '' the two call in a lawyer , and Angela refuses to release him from the contract unless he agrees to have sex with her five times . She later voids the contract after meeting Senator Robert Lipton . After she gives birth ( Jury Duty ) , Dwight realizes the baby was conceived before her marriage to Robert and makes the assumption that he , not Robert , is the father . Angela and Dwight go through a paternity test and in `` New Guys '' it is revealed that Dwight is not Philip 's father . In `` A.A.R.M. '' Dwight proposes to Angela , and she accepts . She then tells Dwight that she lied before and Dwight is Philip 's father . Angela tells him that she wanted to make sure that Dwight wanted to marry her for no other reason than for love .

He meets and falls in love with the fiery Mary Kate Danaher ( Maureen O'Hara ) , the sister of the bullying , loud - mouthed landowner Squire `` Red '' Will Danaher ( Victor McLaglen ) . Danaher , who had wanted the farm himself , is angry that the Widow Tillane ( angered by Danaher 's admission that he had discussed her in the local pub ) accepts Sean 's bid , and retaliates by refusing consent for his sister to marry . Several town locals , including the Catholic priest , Father Lonergan ( Ward Bond ) and the village matchmaker ( and bookmaker ) Michaleen Oge Flynn ( Barry Fitzgerald ) , conspire to trick him into believing that the wealthy Widow Tillane ( Mildred Natwick ) wants to marry him , but only if Mary Kate is no longer living in his house .

                          The one - child policy , a part of the family planning policy , was a population planning policy of China . It was introduced in 1979 and began to be formally phased out near the end of 2015 and the beginning of 2016 . The policy was only enforced on Han Chinese and allowed exceptions for many groups , including ethnic minorities . In 2007 , 36 % of China 's population was subject to a strict one - child restriction , with an additional 53 % being allowed to have a second child if the first child was a girl . Provincial governments imposed fines for violations , and the local and national governments created commissions to raise awareness and carry out registration and inspection work .

                            Arousal regulation refers to entering into and maintaining an optimal level of cognitive and physiological activation in order to maximize performance . This may include relaxation if one becomes too anxious through methods such as progressive muscle relaxation , breathing exercises , and meditation , or the use of energizing techniques ( e.g. , listening to music , energizing cues ) if one is not alert enough . The use of meditation and specifically , mindfulness , is a growing practice in the field of arousal recognition . The Mindfulness - Acceptance - Commitment ( MAC ) Theory is the most common form of mindfulness in sport and was formed in 2001 . The aim of MAC is to maximize human potential for a rich , full and meaningful life . It includes specific protocol that involve meditation and acceptance practices on a regular basis as well as before and during competition . These protocol have been tested various times using NCAA men 's and women 's basketball players . In a study done by Frank L. Gardner , an NCAA women 's basketball player increased her personal satisfaction in her performances from 2.4 out of 10 to 9.2 out of 10 after performing the specific MAC protocol for several weeks . Also , the effect of mental barriers on her game decreased from 8 out of 8 to 2.2 out of 8 during that same time period as a result of the MAC protocol . Another study of the MAC protocol performed by Frank Gardner and Zella Moore on an adolescent competitive diver showed that when the MAC protocol is tailored to a specific population , it has the potential to provide performance enhancement . In this case , the vocabulary and examples in the protocol were tailored to be more practical for a 12 - year - old . After performed the MAC protocol for several weeks , the diver showed between a 13 to 14 percent increase in his diving scores .

                            Typically , in modern - day play , an active roster will consist of five starting pitchers , seven relief pitchers , two catchers , six infielders , and five outfielders . Teams can vary this somewhat according to preference and circumstance , and indeed the `` typical '' roster makeup has changed somewhat over the years . ( Starting rotations used to consist of four pitchers , not five , well into the 1970s ; third - string catchers used to be much more common ; many other minor variations exist . ) In the American League , a full - time designated hitter is usually classified as either an infielder or an outfielder , not a DH , because most DHs do play defensive positions from time to time .

                            Observing a nearby small object without a magnifying glass or a microscope , the size of the object depends on the viewing distance . Under normal lighting conditions ( light source ~ 1000 lumens at height 600 -- 700 mm , viewing angle ~ 35 degrees ) the angular size recognized by naked eye will be round 1 arc minute = 1 / 60 degrees = 0.0003 radians . At a viewing distance of 16 '' = ~ 400 mm , which is considered a normal reading distance in the USA , the smallest object resolution will be ~ 0.116 mm . For inspection purposes laboratories use a viewing distance of 200 -- 250 mm , which gives the smallest size of the object recognizable to the naked eye of ~ 0.058 - 0.072 mm ( ~ 55 - 75 micrometers ) . The accuracy of a measurement ranges from 0.1 to 0.3 mm and depends on the experience of the observer . The latter figure is the usual positional accuracy of faint details in maps and technical plans .

                            X-rays make up X-radiation , a form of electromagnetic radiation . Most X-rays have a wavelength ranging from 0.01 to 10 nanometers , corresponding to frequencies in the range 30 petahertz to 30 exahertz ( 3 × 10 Hz to 3 × 10 Hz ) and energies in the range 100 eV to 100 keV . X-ray wavelengths are shorter than those of UV rays and typically longer than those of gamma rays . In many languages , X-radiation is referred to with terms meaning Röntgen radiation , after the German scientist Wilhelm Röntgen , who usually is credited as its discoverer , and who named it X-radiation to signify an unknown type of radiation . Spelling of X-ray ( s ) in the English language includes the variants x-ray ( s ) , xray ( s ) , and X ray ( s ) .

                            In contrast to separationism , the Supreme Court of the United States in Zorach v. Clauson upheld accommodationism , holding that the nation 's `` institutions presuppose a Supreme Being '' and that government recognition of God does not constitute the establishment of a state church as the Constitution 's authors intended to prohibit . As such , the Court has not always interpreted the constitutional principle as absolute , and the proper extent of separation between government and religion in the U.S. remains an ongoing subject of impassioned debate .

                            Lead -- acid batteries lose the ability to accept a charge when discharged for too long due to sulfation , the crystallization of lead sulfate . They generate electricity through a double sulfate chemical reaction . Lead and lead dioxide , the active materials on the battery 's plates , react with sulfuric acid in the electrolyte to form lead sulfate . The lead sulfate first forms in a finely divided , amorphous state , and easily reverts to lead , lead dioxide and sulfuric acid when the battery recharges . As batteries cycle through numerous discharges and charges , some lead sulfate is not recombined into electrolyte and slowly converts to a stable crystalline form that no longer dissolves on recharging . Thus , not all the lead is returned to the battery plates , and the amount of usable active material necessary for electricity generation declines over time .

                            The occupation of the Baltic states was the military occupation of the three Baltic states -- Estonia , Latvia and Lithuania -- by the Soviet Union under the auspices of the Molotov -- Ribbentrop Pact on 14 June 1940 followed by their incorporation into the USSR as constituent republics , unrecognised by most Western powers . On 22 June 1941 , Nazi Germany attacked the USSR and within weeks occupied the Baltic territories . In July 1941 , the Baltic territory was incorporated into the Reichskommissariat Ostland of the Third Reich . As a result of the Baltic Offensive of 1944 , the Soviet Union recaptured most of the Baltic states and trapped the remaining German forces in the Courland pocket until their formal surrender in May 1945 . The Soviet `` annexation occupation '' ( Annexionsbesetzung or occupation sui generis ) of the Baltic states lasted until August 1991 , when the Baltic states regained independence .

                            Flair triumphantly returned to WCW as a hero in February 1993 , as a result of a `` no - compete '' clause he was unable to wrestle , so he hosted a short - lived talk show in WCW called A Flair for the Gold . Arn Anderson usually appeared at the bar on the show 's set , and Flair 's maid Fifi cleaned or bore gifts . Once he returned to action , Flair briefly held the NWA World Heavyweight Championship for a tenth time after defeating Barry Windham at Beach Blast before WCW finally left the NWA in September 1993 . At Fall Brawl , Flair lost the title , now rebranded the WCW International World Heavyweight Championship , to `` Ravishing Rick '' Rude . At Starrcade in 1993 , Flair defeated Vader to win the WCW World Heavyweight title for the second time . In the spring of 1994 , Flair began a tweener turn and started another feud with longtime rival Ricky Steamboat and challenged Steamboat to a match at Spring Stampede which ended in a no contest from a double pin , causing the title to be held up . Flair then defeated Steamboat in a rematch to reclaim the held - up title on an episode of WCW Saturday Night . The WWE does not count this victory as a new title win . Flair then challenged Col. Robert Parker to wrestle one of his men at Slamboree , which turned out to be Barry Windham , whom Flair defeated , afterwards he quietly turned heel and took Sherri Martel as his manager . He would also wrestle Lord Steven Regal in a five - match series under Marquess of Queensberry Rules , which aired on WCW Worldwide between April 30 and May 28 , in which Flair won the series , with 2 wins , 1 loss , and 2 draws .

                            Sex differences in humans , or gender differences in humans , have been studied in a variety of fields . In humans , biological sex is determined by five factors present at birth : the presence or absence of a Y chromosome , the type of gonads , the sex hormones , the internal reproductive anatomy ( such as the uterus in females ) , and the external genitalia . Genetic sex is determined solely by the presence or absence of a Y chromosome . A child 's presumed sex is determined at birth by observation of the external genitalia .

                            Thousands of drum players , dancers , vendors and visitors come together every Sunday afternoon throughout the temperate months , occupying much of the open space on the eastern edge of Mount Royal Park ( also known as Fletcher 's Field ) . Jeanne - Mance Park , located directly across Avenue du Parc from where the Tam - Tams take place , serves as the city 's main outdoor sporting ground . As such , the entire area is generally quite popular on Sundays in the summertime , drawing an exceptionally diverse crowd to myriad activities . The Tam - Tams typically start around 10 : 30am and continue until sunset . It is not an officially sanctioned nor sponsored event , simply a regular if technically spontaneous event .

                            Episodes in the series subsequently follow Sam 's reaction to each leap ( typically ending the cold open with him uttering `` Oh , boy ! '' on discovering his situation ) , and then working with Al and Ziggy to figure out his new identity and whom he needs to help to `` set right what once went wrong '' and trigger the next leap . An episode typically ends as a cliffhanger showing the first few moments of Sam 's next leap ( along with him again uttering `` Oh , boy ! '' on discovering his situation ) , which is repeated in the following episode 's cold open . Though initially Sam 's leaping is believed by Al and the others on the Quantum Leap team to be random , the characters come to believe in later seasons that someone or something is controlling Sam 's leaping , and this is a central focus of the show 's finale episode , `` Mirror Image '' .

                            The term `` cradle of civilization '' refers to locations where , according to current archeological data , civilization is understood to have emerged . Current thinking is that there was no single `` cradle '' , but several civilizations that developed independently , with the Fertile Crescent ( Mesopotamia and Ancient Egypt ) understood to be the earliest . Other civilizations arose in Asia among cultures situated along large river valleys , such as Indo - Gangetic Plain in the Indian subcontinent and the Yellow River in China . The extent to which there was significant influence between the early civilizations of the Near East and those of East Asia is disputed . Scholars accept that the civilizations of Mesoamerica , mainly in modern Mexico , and Norte Chico in present - day Peru emerged independently from those in Eurasia .

                            Iodine is a chemical element with symbol I and atomic number 53 . The heaviest of the stable halogens , it exists as a lustrous , purple - black metallic solid at standard conditions that sublimes readily to form a violet gas . The elemental form was discovered by the French chemist Bernard Courtois in 1811 . It was named two years later by Joseph - Louis Gay - Lussac from this property , after the Greek ἰωδης `` violet - coloured '' .

                            Around 10,200 BC the first fully developed Neolithic cultures belonging to the phases Pre-Pottery Neolithic A ( PPNA ) and Pre-Pottery Neolithic B ( 7600 to 6000 BC ) appeared in the fertile crescent and from there spread eastwards and westwards . One of the most notable PPNA settlements is Jericho in the Levant region , thought to be the world 's first town ( settled around 8500 BC and fortified around 6800 BC ) . In Mesopotamia , the convergence of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers produced rich fertile soil and a supply of water for irrigation . The civilizations that emerged around these rivers are among the earliest known non-nomadic agrarian societies . It is because of this that the fertile crescent region , and Mesopotamia in particular , are often referred to as the cradle of civilization . The period known as the Ubaid period ( c. 6500 to 3800 BC ) is the earliest known period on the alluvial plain , although it is likely earlier periods exist obscured under the alluvium . It was during the Ubaid period that the movement towards urbanization began . Agriculture and animal husbandry were widely practiced in sedentary communities , particularly in Northern Mesopotamia , and intensive irrigated hydraulic agriculture began to be practiced in the south . Eridu is the oldest Sumerian site settled during this period , around 5300 BC , and the city of Ur also first dates to the end of this period . In the south , the Ubaid period had a very long duration from around 6500 to 3800 BC ; when it is replaced by the Uruk period .

                            Iodine is the fourth halogen , being a member of group 17 in the periodic table , below fluorine , chlorine , and bromine ; it is the heaviest stable member of its group . ( The scarce and fugitive fifth halogen , the radioactive astatine , is not well - studied due to its expense and inaccessibility in large quantities , but appears to show various unusual properties due to relativistic effects . ) Iodine has an electron configuration of ( Kr ) 4d 5s 5p , with the seven electrons in the fifth and outermost shell being its valence electrons . Like the other halogens , it is one electron short of a full octet and is hence a strong oxidising agent , reacting with many elements in order to complete its outer shell , although in keeping with periodic trends , it is the weakest oxidising agent among the stable halogens : it has the lowest electronegativity among them , just 2.66 on the Pauling scale ( compare fluorine , chlorine , and bromine at 3.98 , 3.16 , and 2.96 respectively ; astatine continues the trend with an electronegativity of 2.2 ) . Elemental iodine hence forms diatomic molecules with chemical formula I , where two iodine atoms share a pair of electrons in order to each achieve a stable octet for themselves ; at high temperatures , these diatomic molecules reversibly dissociate a pair of iodine atoms . Similarly , the iodide anion , I , is the strongest reducing agent among the stable halogens , being the most easily oxidised back to diatomic I. ( Astatine goes further , being indeed unstable as At and readily oxidised to At or At , although the existence of At is not settled . )

                            To address Christie 's concerns , new legislation was drafted that prohibits businesses other than Atlantic City casinos from advertising online gambling , or allowing their facilities to be used for online gambling . On February 26 , 2013 , a revised bill permitting Internet gambling was overwhelming approved by the New Jersey Legislature , and then signed into law by Chris Christie . The law legalizes online casino gambling for a 10 - year trial period , restricts the operation of the websites to Atlantic City 's eleven casinos , and imposes a 15 % tax on online gambling revenue , instead of the 8 % currently imposed on casinos .

                            The earliest forms of the potter 's wheel ( called tourneys or slow wheels ) were probably developed as an extension to this procedure . Tournettes , in use around 4500 BC in the Near East , were turned slowly by hand or by foot while coiling a pot . Only a small range of vessels were fashioned on the tournette , suggesting that it was used by a limited number of potters . The introduction of the slow wheel increased the efficiency of hand - powered pottery production .

There are also differences in the structure of specific areas of the brain . For example , on average , the SDN ( INAH3 in humans ) has been repeatedly found to be considerably larger in males than in females .

                            The normal blood glucose level ( tested while fasting ) for non-diabetics , should be between 3.9 and 5.5 mmol / L ( 70 to 100 mg / dL ) . The mean normal blood glucose level in humans is about 5.5 mmol / L ( 100 mg / dL ) ; however , this level fluctuates throughout the day . Blood sugar levels for those without diabetes and who are not fasting should be below 6.9 mmol / L ( 125 mg / dL ) . The blood glucose target range for diabetics , according to the American Diabetes Association , should be 5.0 -- 7.2 mmol / l ( 90 -- 130 mg / dL ) before meals , and less than 10 mmol / L ( 180 mg / dL ) after meals ( as measured by a blood glucose monitor ) .

                            Anatomy ( Greek anatomē , `` dissection '' ) is the branch of biology concerned with the study of the structure of organisms and their parts . Anatomy is a branch of natural science dealing with the structural organization of living things . It is an old science , having its beginnings in prehistoric times . Anatomy is inherently tied to embryology , comparative anatomy , evolutionary biology , and phylogeny , as these are the processes by which anatomy is generated over immediate ( embryology ) and long ( evolution ) timescales . Human anatomy is one of the basic essential sciences of medicine . Anatomy and physiology , which study ( respectively ) the structure and function of organisms and their parts , make a natural pair of related disciplines , and they are often studied together .

                            A lightly regarded prospect coming out of college , Brady was selected by the New England Patriots with the 199th overall pick in the sixth round of 2000 NFL Draft and has since spent his entire 18 - season career with the Patriots . Since Brady became their starting quarterback in 2001 , the Patriots have never had a losing season and have won 14 division titles . The Patriots played in eleven AFC Championship Games from 2001 to 2016 -- including six in a row from 2011 to 2016 -- and won seven of them . Brady and Patriots head coach Bill Belichick have combined to form the most successful quarterback - head coach tandem in NFL history , winning more regular season games and postseason games than any other such duo as well as appearing in seven Super Bowls . All of these events set new NFL records .

                            Before a cell can enter cell division , it needs to take in nutrients . All of the preparations are done during interphase . Interphase is a series of changes that takes place in a newly formed cell and its nucleus , before it becomes capable of division again . It is also called preparatory phase or intermitosis . Previously it was called resting stage because there is no apparent activity related to cell division. Typically interphase lasts for at least 91 % of the total time required for the cell cycle .

                            The term `` anatomy '' is commonly taken to refer to human anatomy . However , substantially the same structures and tissues are found throughout the rest of the animal kingdom and the term also includes the anatomy of other animals . The term zootomy is also sometimes used to specifically refer to animals . The structure and tissues of plants are of a dissimilar nature and they are studied in plant anatomy .

                            Human anatomy , physiology and biochemistry are complementary basic medical sciences , which are generally taught to medical students in their first year at medical school . Human anatomy can be taught regionally or systemically ; that is , respectively , studying anatomy by bodily regions such as the head and chest , or studying by specific systems , such as the nervous or respiratory systems . The major anatomy textbook , Gray 's Anatomy , has been reorganized from a systems format to a regional format , in line with modern teaching methods . A thorough working knowledge of anatomy is required by physicians , especially surgeons and doctors working in some diagnostic specialties , such as histopathology and radiology .

The opening four notes are identical to the opening notes of Peg o ' My Heart ( 1912 ) -- at the time songwriters often borrowed the first few notes of a hit melody .

                            Parallax is a displacement or difference in the apparent position of an object viewed along two different lines of sight , and is measured by the angle or semi-angle of inclination between those two lines . The term is derived from Ancient Greek παράλλαξις ( parallaxis ) , meaning ' alternation ' . Due to foreshortening , nearby objects show a larger parallax than farther objects when observed from different positions , so parallax can be used to determine distances .

                            The source that popularized this pictorial maxim is a 17th - century carving over a door of the famous Tōshō - gū shrine in Nikkō , Japan . The carvings at Toshogu Shrine were carved by Hidari Jingoro , and believed to have incorporated Confucius 's Code of Conduct , using the monkey as a way to depict man 's life cycle . There are a total of eight panels , and the iconic three wise monkeys picture comes from panel 2 . The philosophy , however , probably originally came to Japan with a Tendai - Buddhist legend , from China in the 8th century ( Nara Period ) . It has been suggested that the figures represent the three dogmas of the so - called middle school of the sect .

                            In cell biology , mitosis is a part of the cell cycle when replicated chromosomes are separated into two new nuclei . In general , mitosis ( division of the nucleus ) is preceded by the S stage of interphase ( during which the DNA is replicated ) and is often accompanied or followed by cytokinesis , which divides the cytoplasm , organelles and cell membrane into two new cells containing roughly equal shares of these cellular components . Mitosis and cytokinesis together define the mitotic ( M ) phase of an animal cell cycle -- the division of the mother cell into two daughter cells genetically identical to each other .

                            Joseph Nye Welch ( October 22 , 1890 -- October 6 , 1960 ) was an American lawyer who served as the chief counsel for the United States Army while it was under investigation for Communist activities by Senator Joseph McCarthy 's Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations , an investigation known as the Army -- McCarthy hearings . His confrontation with McCarthy during the hearings , in which he famously asked McCarthy `` At long last , have you left no sense of decency ? '' is seen as a turning point in the history of McCarthyism .

                            Food at various stages of digestion has been found in the intestines of several woolly mammoths , giving a good picture of their diet . Woolly mammoths sustained themselves on plant food , mainly grass and sedges , which were supplemented with herbaceous plants , flowering plants , shrubs , mosses , and tree matter . The composition and exact varieties differed from location to location . Woolly mammoths needed a varied diet to support their growth , like modern elephants . An adult of six tonnes would need to eat 180 kg ( 397 lb ) daily , and may have foraged as long as twenty hours every day . The two - fingered tip of the trunk was probably adapted for picking up the short grasses of the last ice age ( Quaternary glaciation , 2.58 million years ago to present ) by wrapping around them , whereas modern elephants curl their trunks around the longer grass of their tropical environments . The trunk could also be used for pulling off large grass tufts , delicately picking buds and flowers , and tearing off leaves and branches where trees and shrubs were present . The `` Yukagir mammoth '' had ingested plant matter that contained spores of dung fungus . Isotope analysis shows that woolly mammoths fed mainly on C3 plants , unlike horses and rhinos .

                            PDCA was made popular by W. Edwards Deming , who is considered by many to be the father of modern quality control ; however , he always referred to it as the `` Shewhart cycle '' . Later in Deming 's career , he modified PDCA to `` Plan , Do , Study , Act '' ( PDSA ) because he felt that `` check '' emphasized inspection over analysis . The PDSA cycle was used to create the model of know - how transfer process , and other models .

                            The woolly mammoth was roughly the same size as modern African elephants . Males reached shoulder heights between 2.7 and 3.4 m ( 8.9 and 11.2 ft ) and weighed up to 6 metric tons ( 6.6 short tons ) . Females reached 2.6 -- 2.9 m ( 8.5 -- 9.5 ft ) in shoulder heights and weighed up to 4 metric tons ( 4.4 short tons ) . A newborn calf weighed about 90 kilograms ( 200 lb ) . The woolly mammoth was well adapted to the cold environment during the last ice age . It was covered in fur , with an outer covering of long guard hairs and a shorter undercoat . The colour of the coat varied from dark to light . The ears and tail were short to minimise frostbite and heat loss . It had long , curved tusks and four molars , which were replaced six times during the lifetime of an individual . Its behaviour was similar to that of modern elephants , and it used its tusks and trunk for manipulating objects , fighting , and foraging . The diet of the woolly mammoth was mainly grass and sedges . Individuals could probably reach the age of 60 . Its habitat was the mammoth steppe , which stretched across northern Eurasia and North America .

                            The plant Stevia rebaudiana has been used for more than 1,500 years by the Guaraní peoples of South America , who called it ka'a he'ê ( `` sweet herb '' ) . The leaves have been used traditionally for hundreds of years in both Brazil and Paraguay to sweeten local teas and medicines , and as a `` sweet treat '' . The genus was named for Spanish botanist and physician Petrus Jacobus Stevus ( Pedro Jaime Esteve 1500 -- 1556 ) , a professor of botany at the University of Valencia .

                            The Red Knob amplifiers were produced from 1987 until 1993 . These were some of the first models produced by the newly formed Fender Musical Instrument Corporation . These amplifiers , named for their bright red control knobs , have a slightly similar appearance to the older Blackface cosmetics , having black control panels with white lettering and the late 1970s `` scripted tailless '' Fender logo . Many of these models were simply refitted with black knobs and early 1970s `` unscripted tailless '' Fender logos in 1996 when most Fender amplifier manufacturing moved to the Ensenada factory in Mexico . This series of amplifiers all used printed circuit board construction and can be difficult for amateur amp techs to service . The Red Knob amps , with their high - gain channels , had their own sound , not much like the older classic Blackface and Silverface designs .

                            The Celsius scale was based on 0 ° C for the freezing point of water and 100 ° C for the boiling point of water at 1 atm pressure following a change introduced in 1743 by Jean - Pierre Christin to reverse the Celsius thermometer scale ( from water boiling at 0 degrees and ice melting at 100 degrees ) . This scale is widely taught in schools today . By international agreement the unit `` degree Celsius '' and the Celsius scale are currently defined by two different temperatures : absolute zero , and the triple point of Vienna Standard Mean Ocean Water ( VSMOW ) , a specially purified water . This definition also precisely relates the Celsius scale to the Kelvin scale , which defines the SI base unit of thermodynamic temperature with symbol K. Absolute zero , the lowest temperature possible , is defined as being exactly 0 K and − 273.15 ° C. The temperature of the triple point of water is defined as exactly 273.16 K ( 0.01 ° C ; 32.02 ° F ) .

                            Tarapur Atomic Power Station ( T.A.P.S. ) is located in Tarapur , Palghar , India. Tarapur is the largest nuclear power station in India . It was constructed initially with two boiling water reactor ( BWR ) units by Bechtel and GE under the 1963 123 Agreement between India , the United States , and the International Atomic Energy Agency ( IAEA ) . Units 1 and 2 were brought online for commercial operation on 28 October 1969 with an initial power of 210 MW of electricity , later on this was reduced to 160 MW due to technical difficulties . These were the first of their kind in Asia . More recently , an additional two pressurised heavy water reactor ( PHWR ) units of 540 MW each were constructed by L&T and Gammon India , seven months ahead of schedule and well within the original cost estimates .

                            The process of mitosis is divided into stages corresponding to the completion of one set of activities and the start of the next . These stages are prophase , prometaphase , metaphase , anaphase , and telophase . During mitosis , the chromosomes , which have already duplicated , condense and attach to spindle fibers that pull one copy of each chromosome to opposite sides of the cell . The result is two genetically identical daughter nuclei . The rest of the cell may then continue to divide by cytokinesis to produce two daughter cells . Producing three or more daughter cells instead of normal two is a mitotic error called tripolar mitosis or multipolar mitosis ( direct cell triplication / multiplication ) . Other errors during mitosis can induce apoptosis ( programmed cell death ) or cause mutations . Certain types of cancer can arise from such mutations .

                            In 2000 , the De Beers business model changed because of factors such as the decision by producers in Canada and Australia to distribute diamonds outside the De Beers channel , as well as rising awareness of blood diamonds that forced De Beers to `` avoid the risk of bad publicity '' by limiting sales to its own mined products . De Beers ' market share of rough diamonds fell from as high as 90 % in the 1980s to 33 % in 2013 , because of a more fragmented diamond market bringing greater competition , as well as more transparency and greater liquidity . In November 2011 , the Oppenheimer family announced its intention to sell all its 40 % stake in De Beers to Anglo American plc , thereby increasing Anglo American 's ownership of the company to 85 % ( the other 15 % is owned by the Government of the Republic of Botswana ) . The transaction was worth £ 3.2 billion ( US $5.1 billion ) in cash and ended the Oppenheimer dynasty 's 80 - year ownership of De Beers .

                            The fibula or calf bone is a leg bone located on the lateral side of the tibia , with which it is connected above and below . It is the smaller of the two bones , and , in proportion to its length , the slenderest of all the long bones . Its upper extremity is small , placed toward the back of the head of the tibia , below the level of the knee joint , and excluded from the formation of this joint . Its lower extremity inclines a little forward , so as to be on a plane anterior to that of the upper end ; it projects below the tibia , and forms the lateral part of the ankle - joint .

                            Carbonic acid is a chemical compound with the chemical formula H CO ( equivalently OC ( OH ) ) . It is also a name sometimes given to solutions of carbon dioxide in water ( carbonated water ) , because such solutions contain small amounts of H CO . In physiology , carbonic acid is described as volatile acid or respiratory acid , because it is the only acid excreted as a gas by the lungs . It plays an important role in the bicarbonate buffer system to maintain acid -- base homeostasis .

During Hanna 's recovery masquerade celebration , she suddenly regains her memory , revealing that Mona is A. However , she , Emily , and Aria ca n't do much about it , because Spencer and Mona are on their way to the police station . After Spencer is warned about Mona by text , she tries to escape Mona 's car , but Mona catches on rather quickly and diverts to a path in a more remote area of Rosewood . She tells Spencer everything , from seeing Ali launch a firework into Toby Cavanaugh 's garage and blind her friend Jenna , to finding Ali 's diary of secrets among a pile of old DiLaurentis junk the St. Germains left at the curb , discovering the girls ' secrets that only Ali knew . Her motivation was to get revenge for her friend 's blindness , even though Jenna and Ali had planned together to launch the firework . Mona did n't know this and got a scar on her stomach from the ordeal . Mona also drops the bombshell that Ian Thomas killed Ali , due to Ali 's last diary entry about giving him an ultimatum to break up with Melissa . She then offers Spencer to become A with her and tell Hanna that she must not be remembering correctly , but she refuses .

                            After the Allied victory in World War II , Yugoslavia was set up as a federation of six republics , with borders drawn along ethnic and historical lines : Bosnia and Herzegovina , Croatia , Macedonia , Montenegro , Serbia and Slovenia . In addition , two autonomous provinces were established within Serbia : Vojvodina and Kosovo . Each of the republics had its own branch of the League of Communists of Yugoslavia party and a ruling elite , and any tensions were solved on the federal level . The Yugoslav model of state organization , as well as a `` middle way '' between planned and liberal economy , had been a relative success , and the country experienced a period of strong economic growth and relative political stability up to the 1980s , under the rule of president - for - life Josip Broz Tito . After his death in 1980 , the weakened system of federal government was left unable to cope with rising economic and political challenges .

                            The Dust Bowl exodus was the largest migration in American history within a short period of time . Between 1930 and 1940 , approximately 3.5 million people moved out of the Plains states ; of those , it is unknown how many moved to California . In just over a year , over 86,000 people migrated to California . This number is more than the number of migrants to that area during the 1849 Gold Rush . Migrants abandoned farms in Oklahoma , Arkansas , Missouri , Iowa , Nebraska , Kansas , Texas , Colorado , and New Mexico , but were often generally referred to as `` Okies '' , `` Arkies '' , or `` Texies '' . Terms such as `` Okies '' and `` Arkies '' came to be known in the 1930s as the standard terms for those who had lost everything and were struggling the most during the Great Depression .

                            In 1935 , many families were forced to leave their farms and travel to other areas seeking work because of the drought ( which at that time had already lasted four years ) . Dust Bowl conditions fomented an exodus of the displaced from Texas , Oklahoma , and the surrounding Great Plains to adjacent regions . More than 500,000 Americans were left homeless . Over 350 houses had to be torn down after one storm alone . The severe drought and dust storms had left many homeless , others had their mortgages foreclosed by banks , and others felt they had no choice but to abandon their farms in search of work . Many Americans migrated west looking for work . Parents packed up `` jalopies '' with their families and a few personal belongings , and headed west in search of work . Some residents of the Plains , especially in Kansas and Oklahoma , fell ill and died of dust pneumonia or malnutrition .

                            An order in architecture is a certain assemblage of parts subject to uniform established proportions , regulated by the office that each part has to perform `` . Coming down to the present from Ancient Greek and Ancient Roman civilization , the architectural orders are the styles of classical architecture , each distinguished by its proportions and characteristic profiles and details , and most readily recognizable by the type of column employed . The three orders of architecture -- the Doric , Ionic , and Corinthian -- originated in Greece . To these the Romans added , in practice if not in name , the Tuscan , which they made simpler than Doric , and the Composite , which was more ornamental than the Corinthian . The architectural order of a classical building is akin to the mode or key of classical music , the grammar or rhetoric of a written composition . It is established by certain modules like the intervals of music , and it raises certain expectations in an audience attuned to its language .

                            The film spans roughly thirteen years of friendship between childhood sweethearts Monica Wright and Quincy McCall . The first quarter of the story begins in 1981 , when Monica ( played as a youth by Kyla Pratt ) and her family moved to Los Angeles in 1981 from Atlanta , Georgia , and quickly became acquainted with their new neighbors the McCalls , a wealthy family due to the success of Quincy 's father Zeke , the star shooting guard for the Los Angeles Clippers . Quincy and Monica are drawn to each other instantly , sharing a love of the game : basketball . Quincy ( played as a youth by Glendon Chattman ) is shocked that a girl could ever love basketball as much as he did , and he is even more shocked when Monica plays so well . Although their first interaction results in Quincy angrily knocking her down during game point and accidentally scarring her face , they share their first kiss on the first day of school and end the `` first quarter '' of the story fighting in the grass .

                            By 2004 , 58 receptor tyrosine kinases ( RTKs ) were known , grouped into 20 subfamilies . They play pivotal roles in diverse cellular activities including growth ( by signaling neurotrophins ) , differentiation , metabolism , adhesion , motility , death . RTKs are composed of an extracellular domain , which is able to bind a specific ligand , a transmembrane domain , and an intracellular catalytic domain , which is able to bind and phosphorylate selected substrates . Binding of a ligand to the extracellular region causes a series of structural rearrangements in the RTK that lead to its enzymatic activation . In particular , movement of some parts of the kinase domain gives free access to adenosine triphosphate ( ATP ) and the substrate to the active site . This triggers a cascade of events through phosphorylation of intracellular proteins that ultimately transmit ( `` transduce '' ) the extracellular signal to the nucleus , causing changes in gene expression . Many RTKs are involved in oncogenesis , either by gene mutation , or chromosome translocation , or simply by over-expression . In every case , the result is a hyper - active kinase , that confers an aberrant , ligand - independent , non-regulated growth stimulus to the cancer cells .

                            Star formation is the process by which dense regions within molecular clouds in interstellar space , sometimes referred to as `` stellar nurseries '' or `` star - forming regions '' , collapse and form stars . As a branch of astronomy , star formation includes the study of the interstellar medium ( ISM ) and giant molecular clouds ( GMC ) as precursors to the star formation process , and the study of protostars and young stellar objects as its immediate products . It is closely related to planet formation , another branch of astronomy . Star formation theory , as well as accounting for the formation of a single star , must also account for the statistics of binary stars and the initial mass function .

                            Likewise , different philosophers and statesmen have designed different lists of what they believe to be natural rights ; almost all include the right to life and liberty as the two highest priorities . H.L.A. Hart argued that if there are any rights at all , there must be the right to liberty , for all the others would depend upon this . T.H. Green argued that `` if there are such things as rights at all , then , there must be a right to life and liberty , or , to put it more properly to free life . '' John Locke emphasized `` life , liberty and property '' as primary . However , despite Locke 's influential defense of the right of revolution , Thomas Jefferson substituted `` pursuit of happiness '' in place of `` property '' in the United States Declaration of Independence .

When Russian and Bulgarian troops burst in to search the house for him , Raina hides him so that he wo n't be killed . He asks her to remember that `` nine soldiers out of ten are born fools . '' In a conversation after the soldiers have left , Bluntschli 's pragmatic and cynical attitude towards war and soldiering shocks the idealistic Raina , especially after he admits that he uses his ammunition pouches to carry chocolates rather than cartridges for his pistol . When the search dies down , Raina and her mother Catherine sneak Bluntschli out of the house , disguised in one of Raina 's father 's old coats .

                            A spiral galaxy like the Milky Way contains stars , stellar remnants , and a diffuse interstellar medium ( ISM ) of gas and dust . The interstellar medium consists of 10 to 10 particles per cm and is typically composed of roughly 70 % hydrogen by mass , with most of the remaining gas consisting of helium . This medium has been chemically enriched by trace amounts of heavier elements that were ejected from stars as they passed beyond the end of their main sequence lifetime . Higher density regions of the interstellar medium form clouds , or diffuse nebulae , where star formation takes place . In contrast to spirals , an elliptical galaxy loses the cold component of its interstellar medium within roughly a billion years , which hinders the galaxy from forming diffuse nebulae except through mergers with other galaxies .

                            The King and I is a 1956 American musical film made by 20th Century Fox , directed by Walter Lang and produced by Charles Brackett and Darryl F. Zanuck . The screenplay by Ernest Lehman is based on the Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II musical The King and I , based in turn on the novel Anna and the King of Siam by Margaret Landon . That novel in turn was based on memoirs written by Anna Leonowens , who became school teacher to the children of King Mongkut of Siam in the early 1860s . Leonowens ' stories were autobiographical , although various elements of them have been called into question . The film stars Deborah Kerr and Yul Brynner .

                            In tennis , `` Battle of the Sexes '' is a term that has been used to describe various exhibition matches played between a man and a woman ( or , in one case , a doubles match between two men and two women ) . Most famously , the term is used for a nationally televised match in 1973 , held at the Houston Astrodome , between 55 - year - old Bobby Riggs and 29 - year - old Billie Jean King , which King won in three sets . The match attracted massive attention and was viewed by an estimated 90 million people around the world ; King 's win is considered a milestone in public acceptance of women 's tennis .

                          The distinction between alienable and unalienable rights was introduced by Francis Hutcheson . In his Inquiry into the Original of Our Ideas of Beauty and Virtue ( 1725 ) , Hutcheson foreshadowed the Declaration of Independence , stating : `` For wherever any Invasion is made upon unalienable Rights , there must arise either a perfect , or external Right to Resistance ... Unalienable Rights are essential Limitations in all Governments . '' Hutcheson , however , placed clear limits on his notion of unalienable rights , declaring that `` there can be no Right , or Limitation of Right , inconsistent with , or opposite to the greatest publick Good . '' Hutcheson elaborated on this idea of unalienable rights in his A System of Moral Philosophy ( 1755 ) , based on the Reformation principle of the liberty of conscience . One could not in fact give up the capacity for private judgment ( e.g. , about religious questions ) regardless of any external contracts or oaths to religious or secular authorities so that right is `` unalienable . '' Hutcheson wrote : `` Thus no man can really change his sentiments , judgments , and inward affections , at the pleasure of another ; nor can it tend to any good to make him profess what is contrary to his heart . The right of private judgment is therefore unalienable . ''

                          Results of the War of 1812 between Great Britain and the United States , 1812 - 1815 , involved with no geographical changes . The main result of the war was two centuries of peace between the United States and Britain . All the causes of the war had disappeared with the end of the war between Britain and France and with the destruction of the power of Indians to block American expansion into the Northwest . American fears of the Native Americans ended , as did British plans to create a buffer Native American state . The American quest for honor after its humiliations by the British were satisfied . The final collapse of the opposition Federalist Party opened an `` Era of good feelings '' with lessened partisanship and an exuberant spirit . The British paid little attention to the war , concentrating instead on their final defeat of Napoleon in 1815 . The U.S. failed to gain any territory from British North America , contrary to many American politicians ' hopes and expectations , but it did gain land from Spain .

                          The main location for the Perlmans ' residence was an uninhabited 17th - century mansion in Moscazzano . The director initially wanted to buy the house but could not afford it , so he made a film at the place instead . Six weeks before production , the crew -- including production designer Samuel Dehors and first - time set decorator Violante Visconti di Modrone -- gradually decorated the house with furniture , objects , and decoration inspired by the characters . Much of the furniture , including the dishes and glassware from the ' 50s , belonged to Guadagnino and Visconti 's parents . `` That made it cozy and personal , '' Visconti said , `` I wanted to give it the sense of time passing by .

                          `` Glory '' is one of the most common words in scripture . In the Old Testament , the word is used to translate several Hebrew words , including Hod ( הוד ) and kabod , and in the New Testament it is used to translate the Greek word doxa ( δόξα ) . The Hebrew word kabod ( K-B-D ) originally means `` weight '' or `` heaviness . '' The same word is then used to express importance , honor , and majesty . Greek versions of the Hebrew Bible translated this concept with the word δόξα , which was then used extensively in the New Testament as well . Doxa originally means `` judgment , opinion '' , and by extension , `` good reputation , honor '' . Assuming that these various words and uses should refer to a single underlying concept , St. Augustine renders it as clara notitia cum laude , `` brilliant celebrity with praise '' .

                          The French colonization of Texas began with the establishment of a fort in present - day southeastern Texas . It was established in 1685 near Arenosa Creek and Matagorda Bay by explorer Robert Cavelier de La Salle . He intended to found the colony at the mouth of the Mississippi River , but inaccurate maps and navigational errors caused his ships to anchor instead 400 miles ( 640 km ) to the west , off the coast of Texas . The colony survived until 1688 . The present - day town of Inez is near the fort 's site .

                          While Karnataka became independent with the rest of the country on 15 August 1947 , this did not occur in some parts of the state that were under the rule of the Nizam of Hyderabad . Hyderabad consisted of large portions of what were later to be the north eastern districts of Bidar , Gulbarga and Raichur of Karnataka state . The Lingayat minority in these regions also largely believed that they had been neglected and resented the oppression of the Nizam and the Razakars . The Nizam refused to accede to India until his rule was overthrown by force . Following the ' police action ' against the Nizam , Hyderabad province and its citizens became independent on 17 September 1948 . This day is celebrated by the Karnataka government as the Hyderabad - Karnataka liberation day .

                          The feminist theory underlying the Duluth Model is that men use violence within relationships to exercise power and control . This is illustrated by the `` Power and Control Wheel , '' a graphic typically displayed as a poster in participating locations . According to the Duluth Model , `` women and children are vulnerable to violence because of their unequal social , economic , and political status in society . '' Treatment of abusive men is focused on re-education , as `` we do not see men 's violence against women as stemming from individual pathology , but rather from a socially reinforced sense of entitlement . '' The program 's philosophy is intended to help batterers work to change their attitudes and personal behavior so they would learn to be nonviolent in any relationship .

                          The motor of this incessant force of creative destruction is technological change . While the key carrier technology of the first Industrial Revolution ( 1770 -- 1850 ) was based on water - powered mechanization , the second Kondratiev wave ( 1850 -- 1900 ) was enabled by steam - powered technology , the third ( 1900 -- 1940 ) was characterized by the electrification of social and productive organization , the fourth by motorization and the automated mobilization of society ( 1940 -- 1970 ) , and the most recent one by the digitization of social systems . Each one of those so - called long waves has been characterized by a sustained period of social modernization , most notably by sustained periods of increasing economic productivity . According to Carlota Perez : `` this quantum jump in productivity can be seen as a technological revolution , which is made possible by the appearance in the general cost structure of a particular input that we could call the ' key factor ' , fulfilling the following conditions : ( 1 ) clearly perceived low - and descending - relative cost ; ( 2 ) unlimited supply for all practical purposes ; ( 3 ) potential all - pervasiveness ; ( 4 ) a capacity to reduce the costs of capital , labour and products as well as to change them qualitatively '' . Digital Information and Communication Technologies fulfill those requirements and therefore represent a general purpose technology that can transform an entire economy , leading to a modern , and more developed form of socio - economic and political organization often referred to as the post-industrial society , the fifth Kondratiev , Information society , digital age , and network society , among others .

                          Both ethnic affiliation ( e.g. Pathan , Sindhi , Baloch , Punjabi , etc . ) and membership of specific biraderis or zaat / quoms are additional integral components of social identity . Within the bounds of endogamy defined by the above parameters , close consanguineous unions are preferred due to a congruence of key features of group - and individual - level background factors as well as affinities . McKim Marriott claims a social stratification that is hierarchical , closed , endogamous and hereditary is widely prevalent , particularly in western parts of Pakistan . Frederik Barth in his review of this system of social stratification in Pakistan suggested that these are castes .

                          `` Mercedes Benz '' is an a cappella song written by singer Janis Joplin with the poets Michael McClure and Bob Neuwirth , and originally recorded by Joplin . In the song , the singer asks the Lord to prove His love for her by buying her a Mercedes - Benz , a color TV , and a `` night on the town . '' There is also a reference to Dialing for Dollars , a franchised format local television program , which required one to be watching the show to win when the show called your phone number , hence the singer 's need for a TV .

                          The Great Depression began in August 1929 , when the United States economy first went into an economic recession . Although the country spent two months with declining GDP , it was not until the Wall Street Crash in October 1929 that the effects of a declining economy were felt , and a major worldwide economic downturn ensued . The market crash marked the beginning of a decade of high unemployment , poverty , low profits , deflation , plunging farm incomes , and lost opportunities for economic growth and personal advancement . Although its causes are still uncertain and controversial , the net effect was a sudden and general loss of confidence in the economic future .

                          The First Epistle of John , often referred to as First John and written 1 John , is the first of the Johannine epistles of the New Testament , and the fourth of the catholic epistles . It is attributed to John the Evangelist , traditionally thought to be the author of the Gospel of John and the other two Johannine epistles . This epistle was probably written in Ephesus in AD 95 -- 110 . The work was written to counter docetism , which is the belief that Jesus did not come `` in the flesh '' , but only as a spirit . It also defined how Christians are to discern true teachers : by their ethics , their proclamation of Jesus in the flesh , and by their love .

                          Tug of war was contested as a team event in the Summer Olympics at every Olympiad from 1900 to 1920 . Originally the competition was entered by groups called clubs . A country could enter more than one club in the competition , making it possible for one country to earn multiple medals . This happened in 1904 , when the United States won all three medals , and in 1908 when the podium was occupied by three British teams . Sweden was also among the top countries with two medals , one as a member of the mixed team .

                          Hamburgers are Wimpy 's all - time favorite food , and he is usually seen carrying or eating one or more at a time -- e.g. , in Popeye the Sailor Meets Sindbad the Sailor he is seen grinding meat or eating burgers almost the entire time -- however , he is usually too cheap to pay for them himself . A recurring joke involves Wimpy 's attempts to con other patrons of the diner into buying his meal for him . His best - known catchphrase started in 1931 as , `` Cook me up a hamburger . I 'll pay you Thursday . '' In 1932 , this then became the famous , `` I 'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today . '' The phrase was also slightly altered in the episode `` Spree Lunch '' to `` I 'll have a hamburger , for which I will gladly pay you Tuesday . '' This phrase is now commonly used to illustrate financial irresponsibility and still appears in modern comedies such as The Drew Carey Show and The Office . The initial part of the phrase was even the title of Episode 6 of the fourth season of Cheers `` I 'll Gladly Pay You Tuesday . ''

                          The Hittites ( / ˈhɪtaɪts / ) were an Ancient Anatolian people who established an empire centered on Hattusa in north - central Anatolia around 1600 BC . This empire reached its height during the mid-14th century BC under Suppiluliuma I , when it encompassed an area that included most of Anatolia as well as parts of the northern Levant and Upper Mesopotamia . Between the 15th and 13th centuries BC the Hittite Empire came into conflict with the Egyptian Empire , Middle Assyrian Empire and the empire of the Mitanni for control of the Near East . The Assyrians eventually emerged as the dominant power and annexed much of the Hittite empire , while the remainder was sacked by Phrygian newcomers to the region . After c. 1180 BC , during the Bronze Age collapse , the Hittites splintered into several independent `` Neo-Hittite '' city - states , some of which survived until the 8th century BC before succumbing to the Neo-Assyrian Empire .

                          The whale shark ( Rhincodon typus ) is a slow - moving , filter - feeding carpet shark and the largest known extant fish species . The largest confirmed individual had a length of 12.65 m ( 41.5 ft ) and a weight of about 21.5 t ( 47,000 lb ) . The whale shark holds many records for sheer size in the animal kingdom , most notably being by far the largest living nonmammalian vertebrate . It is the sole member of the genus Rhincodon and the only extant member of the family Rhincodontidae which belongs to the subclass Elasmobranchii in the class Chondrichthyes . Before 1984 it was classified as Rhiniodon into Rhinodontidae . The species originated about 60 million years ago .

                          The whale shark is the largest non-cetacean animal in the world . The average size of adult whale sharks is estimated at 9.7 m ( 31.82 ft ) and 9 t ( 20,000 lb ) . Several specimens over 18 m ( 59.05 ft ) in length have been reported . The largest verified specimen was caught on 11 November 1947 , near Baba Island , in Karachi , Pakistan . It was 12.65 m ( 41.50 ft ) long , weighed about 21.5 t ( 47,000 lb ) , and had a girth of 7 m ( 23.0 ft ) . Stories exist of vastly larger specimens -- quoted lengths of 18 m ( 59 ft ) and 45.5 t ( 100,000 lb ) are common in the popular literature , but no scientific records support their existence . In 1868 , the Irish natural scientist Edward Perceval Wright obtained several small whale shark specimens in the Seychelles , but claimed to have observed specimens in excess of 15 m ( 49.2 ft ) , and tells of shark specimens surpassing 21 m ( 68.9 ft ) .

                          Folk etymology has suggested that perhaps the phrases `` saved by the bell '' , `` dead ringer '' and `` graveyard shift '' come from the use of safety coffins in the Victorian era ; however , these have been dispelled as urban myth , attributed to a linguistic e-mail hoax Life in the 1500s . The `` saved by the bell '' expression is actually well established to have come from boxing , where a boxer who is still on their feet but close to being knocked down can be saved from losing by the bell ringing to indicate the end of the round .

                          Itai - itai disease was caused by cadmium poisoning due to mining in Toyama Prefecture . The earliest records of mining for gold in the area date back to 1710 . Regular mining for silver started in 1589 , and soon thereafter , mining for lead , copper , and zinc began . Increased demand for raw materials during the Russo - Japanese War and World War I , as well as new mining technologies from Europe , increased the output of the mines , putting the Kamioka Mines in Toyama among the world 's top mines . Production increased even more before World War II . Starting in 1910 and continuing through 1945 , cadmium was released in significant quantities by mining operations , and the disease first appeared around 1912 . Prior to World War II , the mining , controlled by the Mitsui Mining & Smelting Co. , Ltd. , increased to satisfy the wartime demand . This subsequently increased the pollution of the Jinzū River and its tributaries . The river was used mainly for irrigation of rice fields , but also for drinking water , washing , fishing , and other uses by downstream populations .

Charlie Wadhams wrote the song `` Let 's Duet '' . Marshall Crenshaw wrote the title song , and Van Dyke Parks penned the Brian Wilson-esque 1960s - styled psychedelic jam `` Black Sheep '' ( the recording session seems to be a specific parody of Wilson 's Smile album sessions , on which Van Dyke Parks worked ) . Antonio Ortiz wrote `` Take My Hand '' . A number of critics noted the unusually high quality of many of the individual songs on the soundtrack , how well they reflected the styles and times they were attempting to parody , and how well they stood on their own as quality compositions . The soundtrack was nominated for both a Grammy and Golden Globe Award and was nominated and won the Sierra Award for Best Song in a Motion Picture from the Las Vegas Film Critics Society . John C. Reilly sang on all the tracks and played guitar on most of them .

                          Before 1986 , people often did not obtain a Social Security number until the age of about 14 , since the numbers were used for income tracking purposes , and those under that age seldom had substantial income . The Tax Reform Act of 1986 required parents to list Social Security numbers for each dependent over the age of 5 for whom the parent wanted to claim a tax deduction . Before this act , parents claiming tax deductions were simply trusted not to lie about the number of children they supported . During the first year of the Tax Reform Act , this anti-fraud change resulted in seven million fewer minor dependents being claimed . The disappearance of these dependents is believed to have involved either children who never existed or tax deductions improperly claimed by non-custodial parents . In 1988 , the threshold was lowered to 2 years old , and in 1990 , the threshold was lowered yet again to 1 year old . Today , an SSN is required regardless of the child 's age to receive an exemption . Since then , parents have often applied for Social Security numbers for their children soon after birth ; today , it can be done on the application for a birth certificate .

                          According to traditional belief , the popping of joints , especially knuckles , can lead to arthritis and other joint problems . However , medical research has so far failed to conclusively demonstrate a connection between knuckle cracking and long - term joint problems . The cracking mechanism and the resulting sound is caused by carbon dioxide cavitation bubbles suddenly partially collapsing inside the joints .

                          Many southern whites had considered themselves more Southern than American and were prepared to fight for their state and their region to be independent of the larger nation . That regionalism became a Southern nationalism , or the `` Cause '' . For the duration of its existence , the Confederacy underwent trial by war . The `` Southern Cause '' transcended the ideology of states ' rights , tariff policy , or internal improvements . This `` Cause '' supported , or descended from , cultural and financial dependence on the South 's slavery - based economy . The convergence of race and slavery , politics , and economics raised almost all South - related policy questions to the status of moral questions over way of life , commingling love of things Southern and hatred of things Yankee ( the North ) . Not only did national political parties split , but national churches and interstate families as well divided along sectional lines as the war approached . According to historian John M. Coski , `` The statesmen who led the secession movement were unashamed to explicitly cite the defense of slavery as their prime motive ... Acknowledging the centrality of slavery to the Confederacy is essential for understanding the Confederate . ''

                          The U.S. produces approximately 18 % of the world 's manufacturing output , a share that has declined as other nations developed competitive manufacturing industries . The job loss during this continual volume growth is the result of multiple factors including increased productivity , trade , and secular economic trends . In addition , growth in telecommunications , pharmaceuticals , aircraft , heavy machinery and other industries along with declines in low end , low skill industries such as clothing , toys , and other simple manufacturing have resulted in some U.S. jobs being more highly skilled and better paying . There has been much debate within the United States on whether the decline in manufacturing jobs are related to American unions , lower foreign wages , or both .

                          The original early 19th - century interior designs , many of which survive , include widespread use of brightly coloured scagliola and blue and pink lapis , on the advice of Sir Charles Long . King Edward VII oversaw a partial redecoration in a Belle Époque cream and gold colour scheme . Many smaller reception rooms are furnished in the Chinese regency style with furniture and fittings brought from the Royal Pavilion at Brighton and from Carlton House . The palace has 775 rooms , and the garden is the largest private garden in London . The state rooms , used for official and state entertaining , are open to the public each year for most of August and September and on some days in winter and spring .

                          The intersection of two to three barrel vaults produces a rib vault or ribbed vault when they are edged with an armature of piped masonry often carved in decorative patterns ; compare groin vault , an older form of vault construction . While the mechanics of the weight of a groin vault and its transmission outwards to the supporting pillars remained as it had been , the new use of rib vaults demonstrates the skill of the masons and the grandeur of the new ideas circulating at the introduction of Gothic architecture in the end of the eleventh century . This technique was new in the late eleventh century , for example in the roofs of the choir side - aisles at Durham Cathedral . Romanesque ancestors of the Gothic rib vault can be found in early Gothic constructions at Cefalù , Caen , Durham , and elsewhere .

                          There has been considerable analysis of different ideological patterns . This kind of analysis has been described by some as meta - ideology -- the study of the structure , form , and manifestation of ideologies . Recent analysis tends to posit that ideology is a coherent system of ideas , relying upon a few basic assumptions about reality that may or may not have any factual basis . Ideas become ideologies ( that is , become coherent , repeated patterns ) through the subjective ongoing choices that people make , serving as the seed around which further thought grows . According to most recent analysis , ideologies are neither necessarily right nor wrong . Believers in ideology range from passive acceptance through fervent advocacy to true belief . An excessive need for certitude lurks at fundamentalist levels in politics and religions .

                          A tabby is any domestic cat ( Felis catus ) that has a coat featuring distinctive stripes , dots , lines or swirling patterns , usually together with a mark resembling an ' M ' on its forehead . Tabbies are sometimes erroneously assumed to be a cat breed . In fact , the tabby pattern is found in many breeds , and is a genetic landrace common among the general mixed - breed population . The tabby pattern is a naturally occurring feature that may be related to the coloration of the domestic cat 's direct ancestor , the African wildcat ( Felis lybica lybica ) , which -- along with the European wildcat ( Felis silvestris silvestris ) and Asiatic wildcat ( Felis lybica ornata ) -- has a similar coloration . A genetic study found five genetic clusters from tabbies to be ancestral to wildcats of various parts of the world .

                          In computer networking a routing table , or routing information base ( RIB ) , is a data table stored in a router or a networked computer that lists the routes to particular network destinations , and in some cases , metrics ( distances ) associated with those routes . The routing table contains information about the topology of the network immediately around it . The construction of routing tables is the primary goal of routing protocols . Static routes are entries made in a routing table by non-automatic means and which are fixed rather than being the result of some network topology `` discovery '' procedure .

                          The Comma Johanneum , also called the Johannine Comma or the Heavenly Witnesses , is a comma ( a short clause ) found in Latin manuscripts of the First Epistle of John at 5 : 7 -- 8 . The comma first appeared in the Vulgate manuscripts of the 9th century . The first Greek manuscript that contains the comma dates from the 15th century . The comma is absent from the Ethiopic , Aramaic , Syriac , Slavic , Armenian , Georgian , and Arabic translations of the Greek New Testament . The scholarly consensus is that that passage is a Latin corruption that entered the Greek manuscript tradition in some subsequent copies . As the comma does not appear in the manuscript tradition of other languages , the debate is mainly limited to the English - speaking world due to the King James Only movement .

                              A large - scale example of an action performed by the cytoskeleton is muscle contraction . In the muscle , there are groups of highly specialized cells that work together to perform a function known as muscle contraction . A main component in the cytoskeleton that helps show the true function of this muscle contraction is known as a microfilament . Microfilaments are composed of the most abundant cellular protein known as actin . During contraction of a muscle , within each muscle cell , myosin molecular motors collectively exert forces on parallel actin filaments . Muscle contraction starts from nerve impulses which then causes increased amounts of calcium to be released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum . Increases in calcium in the cytosol allows muscle contraction to begin with the help of two proteins , tropomyosin and troponin . Tropomyosin inhibits the interaction between actin and myosin , while troponin senses the increase in calcium and releases the inhibition . This action contracts the muscle cell , and through the synchronous process in many muscle cells , the entire muscle .

                              In the United States , the Royal Proclamation of 1763 ended with the American Revolutionary War because Great Britain ceded the land in question to the United States in the Treaty of Paris ( 1783 ) . Afterward , the U.S. government also faced difficulties in preventing frontier violence and eventually adopted policies similar to those of the Royal Proclamation . The first in a series of Indian Intercourse Acts was passed in 1790 , prohibiting unregulated trade and travel in Native American lands . In 1823 , the U.S. Supreme Court case Johnson v. M'Intosh established that only the U.S. government , and not private individuals , could purchase land from Native Americans .

                              Each B - channel carries data , voice , and other services . The D - channel carries control and signaling information . Larger connections are possible using PRI pairing . A dual T1 - PRI could have 24 + 23 = 47 B - channels and 1 D - channel ( often called `` 47B + D '' ) , but more commonly has 46 B - channels and 2 D - channels thus providing a backup signaling channel . The concept applies to E1s as well and both can include more than 2 PRIs . When configuring multiple T1 's as ISDN - PRI 's , it 's possible to use NFAS ( non-facility associated signalling ) to enable one or two D - channels to support additional B - channels on separate T1 circuits .

The opposition party 's response has varied in format , ranging from a prerecorded 45 - minute TV program in 1970 to a call - in show in 1972 where a panel of congressmen answered unrehearsed questions from callers . Since the late 1980s , it usually has been a televised speech given soon after the State of the Union address .

                              PRI is the standard for providing telecommunication services to enterprises and offices . It is based on T - carrier ( T1 ) transmission in the US , Canada , and Japan , while the E-carrier ( E1 ) is common in Europe and Australia . The T1 line consists of 23 bearer ( B ) channels and one data ( D ) channel for control purposes , for a total bandwidth of 24x64 - kbit / s or 1.544 Mbit / s . The E1 carrier provides 30 B - and two D - channels for a bandwidth of 2.048 Mbit / s . The first timeslot on the E1 is used for synchronization purposes and is not considered to be a B - or D - channel . The D - channel typically uses timeslot 16 on an E1 , while it is timeslot 24 for a T1 . Fewer active bearer channels , sometimes called user channels , may be used in fractional T1 or E1 services .

                              In a cell , DNA replication begins at specific locations , or origins of replication , in the genome . Unwinding of DNA at the origin and synthesis of new strands , accommodated by an enzyme known as ligase , results in replication forks growing bi-directionally from the origin . A number of proteins are associated with the replication fork to help in the initiation and continuation of DNA synthesis . Most prominently , DNA polymerase synthesizes the new strands by adding nucleotides that complement each ( template ) strand . DNA replication occurs during the S - stage of interphase .

                              Although partly functional , weather vanes are generally decorative , often featuring the traditional cockerel design with letters indicating the points of the compass . Other common motifs include ships , arrows and horses . Not all weather vanes have pointers . When the wind is sufficiently strong , the head of the arrow or cockerel ( or equivalent depending on the chosen design ) will indicate the direction from which the wind is blowing .

                              `` It Ai n't Over ' til It 's Over '' is a song recorded , written , and produced by American musician Lenny Kravitz for his second studio album , Mama Said ( 1991 ) . Released as the album 's second single in June 1991 , the song is a mid-tempo ballad , musically inspired by Motown , Philly soul , and Earth , Wind & Fire ( particularly `` That 's the Way of the World '' ) . The horn line at the end is performed by the Phenix Horns from Earth , Wind & Fire . `` That song just came out one day , and I knew it had a classic vibe . And I still love that song very much today '' , Kravitz said in an interview for VivaMusic.com in 2000 . The line is based on a Yogiism , or quotation from Yogi Berra : `` It ai n't over ' til it 's over . '' It was Kravitz 's first top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 of his career , and his highest peak in the chart . English singer Mutya Buena 's 2007 song `` Real Girl '' contains a sample from `` It Ai n't Over ' til It 's Over '' .

                              Indoor toilets were at first a luxury of the rich and only gradually spread to the lower classes . As late as the 1890s , building regulations in London did not require working - class housing to have indoor toilets ; into the early 20th century , some English homes were built with an upstairs toilet for use by the owners and an outhouse for use by the servants . In some cases , there was a transitional stage where toilets were built into the house but accessible only from the outside . After World War I , all new housing in London and its suburbs had indoor toilets .

                              Glycogen is the analogue of starch , a glucose polymer that functions as energy storage in plants . It has a structure similar to amylopectin ( a component of starch ) , but is more extensively branched and compact than starch . Both are white powders in their dry state . Glycogen is found in the form of granules in the cytosol / cytoplasm in many cell types , and plays an important role in the glucose cycle . Glycogen forms an energy reserve that can be quickly mobilized to meet a sudden need for glucose , but one that is less compact than the energy reserves of triglycerides ( lipids ) .

                              Venus is the second planet from the Sun , orbiting it every 224.7 Earth days . It has the longest rotation period ( 243 days ) of any planet in the Solar System and rotates in the opposite direction to most other planets ( meaning the Sun would rise in the west and set in the east ) . It does not have any natural satellites . It is named after the Roman goddess of love and beauty . It is the second - brightest natural object in the night sky after the Moon , reaching an apparent magnitude of − 4.6 -- bright enough to cast shadows at night and , rarely , visible to the naked eye in broad daylight . Orbiting within Earth 's orbit , Venus is an inferior planet and never appears to venture far from the Sun ; its maximum angular distance from the Sun ( elongation ) is 47.8 ° .

                              The Book of Esther , also known in Hebrew as `` the Scroll '' ( Megillah ) , is a book in the third section ( Ketuvim , `` Writings '' ) of the Jewish Tanakh ( the Hebrew Bible ) and in the Christian Old Testament . It is one of the five Scrolls ( Megillot ) in the Hebrew Bible . It relates the story of a Hebrew woman in Persia , born as Hadassah but known as Esther , who becomes queen of Persia and thwarts a genocide of her people . The story forms the core of the Jewish festival of Purim , during which it is read aloud twice : once in the evening and again the following morning . The books of Esther and Song of Songs are the only books in the Hebrew Bible that do not explicitly mention God .

                              The paper rapidly acquired a broad popularity , at one time having a readership of 20,000 . Bhupendranath Dutt served as the editor of the newspaper till his arrest in 1907 , although it also published articles from a number of noted Bengali revolutionaries including Barindra Kumar Ghosh and Aurobindo Ghosh . It faced prosecution a number of times by the British Indian government for publishing seditious articles . Bhupendranath Dutt was arrested in 1907 for publication of articles `` inciting violence against the Government of India '' , for which he was sentenced to a year 's rigorous imprisonment . The paper was ultimately forced to shut down in 1908 , amidst financial ruins following the prosecutions , and after the passage of The Newspapers ( Incitement to offences ) act in June 1908 which made its position vulnerable .

                              However , it is possible to narrow the date further . A terminus ante quem for A Shrew seems to be August 1592 , as a stage direction at 3.21 mentions `` Simon , '' which probably refers to the actor Simon Jewell , who was buried on 21 August 1592 . Furthermore , The Shrew must have been written earlier than 1593 , as Anthony Chute 's Beauty Dishonoured , written under the title of Shore 's wife ( published in June 1593 ) contains the line `` He calls his Kate , and she must come and kiss him . '' This must refer to The Shrew , as there is no corresponding `` kissing scene '' in A Shrew . There are also verbal similarities between both Shrew plays and the anonymous play A Knack to Know a Knave ( first performed at The Rose on 10 June 1592 ) . Knack features several passages common to both A Shrew and The Shrew , but it also borrows several passages unique to The Shrew . This suggests The Shrew was on stage prior to June 1592 .

                              The series is about a boy named Malcolm and his dysfunctional family . The show stars Frankie Muniz as Malcolm , the third of four and later five boys , his brothers , and their parents , Lois ( Jane Kaczmarek ) and Hal ( Bryan Cranston ) . Their first child , Francis ( Christopher Masterson ) , was sent away to military school , leaving his three younger brothers at home , Reese ( Justin Berfield ) , Malcolm , and Dewey ( Erik Per Sullivan ) with Malcolm being the middle child still living at home . In season four , the character Jamie ( James and Lukas Rodriguez ) was added to the show as the fifth son of Hal & Lois .

                              In July 2013 , before filming began , Marshall put the cast through six weeks of rehearsals on a soundstage and blocked their scenes . In August , the cast members visited Angel Recording Studios to separately record their respective parts in the presence of Sondheim himself . Over 90 % of the vocal tracks in the final version of the film are from the recording studio sessions , while the rest were recorded on location or on the set . The advantage of blocking and rehearsing all scenes first was that the cast members could then precisely calibrate their voices in the recording studio to the planned appearance of each scene when later filmed , thereby minimizing the slightly disconcerting disconnection between vocals and choreography typical of music videos .

                              The series follows a family of six , and later seven , and stars Frankie Muniz in the lead role of Malcolm , a somewhat normal boy who tests at genius level . While he enjoys his intelligence , he despises having to take classes for gifted children , who are mocked by the other students who call them `` Krelboynes '' . Jane Kaczmarek is Malcolm 's overbearing , authoritarian mother , Lois , and Bryan Cranston plays his immature but loving father , Hal . Christopher Kennedy Masterson plays eldest brother Francis , a former rebel who , in earlier episodes , was in military school , but eventually marries and settles into a steady job . Justin Berfield is Malcolm 's dimwitted older brother Reese , a cruel bully who tortures Malcolm at home , even while he defends him at school . Younger brother Dewey , bitter about his ruined childhood , smart , and musically talented , is portrayed by Erik Per Sullivan . At first , the show 's focus was on Malcolm , but as the series progressed , it began to explore all six members of the family . A fifth son , Jamie , was introduced as a baby at the end of Season 4 .

                              Automobile drivetrains generally have two or more major areas where gearing is used . Gearing is employed in the transmission , which contains a number of different sets of gears that can be changed to allow a wide range of vehicle speeds , and also in the differential , which contains the final drive to provide further speed reduction at the wheels . In addition , the differential contains further gearing that splits torque equally between the two wheels while permitting them to have different speeds when travelling in a curved path . The transmission and final drive might be separate and connected by a driveshaft , or they might be combined into one unit called a transaxle . The gear ratios in transmission and final drive are important because different gear ratios will change the characteristics of a vehicle 's performance .

                              However , opinion was divided , with support for co-operation coming from some members of the Muslim League and also both Hindus and members of the Central Sikh League . An All - India Committee for Cooperation with the Simon Commission was established by the Council of India and by selection of the Viceroy , Lord Irwin . The members of the committee were : C. Sankaran Nair ( Chairman ) , Arthur Froom , Nawab Ali Khan , Shivdev Singh Uberoi , Zulfiqar Ali Khan , Hari Singh Gour , Abdullah Al - Mamun Suhrawardy , Kikabhai Premchand and M.C. Rajah . In Burma ( Myanmar ) , which was included in the terms of reference of the Simon Commission , there was strong suspicion either that Burma 's unpopular union with India would continue , or that the constitution recommended for Burma by the Commission would be less generous than that chosen for India ; these suspicions resulted in tension and violence in Burma leading to the rebellion of Saya San .

                              Serialized fiction surged in popularity during Britain 's Victorian era , due to a combination of the rise of literacy , technological advances in printing , and improved economics of distribution . Most Victorian novels first appeared as installments in monthly or weekly periodicals . The wild success of Charles Dickens 's The Pickwick Papers , first published in 1836 , is widely considered to have established the viability and appeal of the serialized format within periodical literature . During that era , the line between `` quality '' and `` commercial '' literature was not distinct . Other famous writers who wrote serial literature for popular magazines were Wilkie Collins , inventor of the detective novel with The Moonstone and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle , who created the Sherlock Holmes stories originally for serialization in The Strand magazine .

                              As noted above , the majority of the songs were pre-recorded by the cast . Music producer Mike Higham , who had previously worked with Sondheim on Sweeney Todd : The Demon Barber of Fleet Street , recorded the film 's score with the London Symphony Orchestra and London Philharmonic . Music supervisor and conductor Paul Gemignani instructed the actors on how to sing , including singing live to a camera on set , to prerecorded music in studio , and with a live studio orchestra . Jonathan Tunick orchestrated Sondheim 's original music . The key to the song , `` Hello , Little Girl , '' was altered to better suit Johnny Depp 's lower vocal range . In regards to the song 's musical arrangement , Higham explained , `` we emphasized the woodwinds to make it feel a little lighter , especially the flutes . And we just made it a little jazzier -- played more on the walking bass line . Inherently , when it has a jazz feel , it just feels lighter . '' The film 's soundtrack was released by Walt Disney Records on December 15 , 2014 .

                              Youngstown 's economy has been impacted by a loss of the steel industry jobs which started on September 19 , 1977 , on what became known to locals as `` Black Monday '' , and continued into the mid-1980s . While the loss of steel industry jobs in the region coincided with the general deindustrialization of Rust Belt cities such as Youngstown as well as the United States as a whole , Youngstown 's economic struggles have been well documented . In the Mahoning Valley region , where Youngstown is located , the city 's population was halved , while non-industrial businesses were forced to close or relocate due to cascading effects resulting from Youngstown 's deindustrialization .

                              In the developing fetus , the ductus arteriosus , also called the ductus Botalli , is a blood vessel connecting the main pulmonary artery to the proximal descending aorta . It allows most of the blood from the right ventricle to bypass the fetus 's fluid - filled non-functioning lungs . Upon closure at birth , it becomes the ligamentum arteriosum . There are two other fetal shunts , the ductus venosus and the foramen ovale .

                              On December 8 , 1941 , the United States Congress declared war ( Public Law 77 - 328 , 55 STAT 795 ) on the Empire of Japan in response to that country 's surprise attack on Pearl Harbor the prior day . It was formulated an hour after the Infamy Speech of US President Franklin D. Roosevelt . Japan had sent a message for the United States to its embassy in Washington earlier , but because of problems at the embassy in decoding the very long message -- the high security level assigned to the declaration meant that only personnel with very high clearances could decode it , which slowed down the process -- it was not delivered to the U.S. Secretary of State until after the Pearl Harbor attack . Following the U.S. declaration , Japan 's allies , Germany and Italy , declared war on the United States , bringing the United States fully into World War II .

                              The Enabling Act ( German : Ermächtigungsgesetz ) was a 1933 Weimar Constitution amendment that gave the German Cabinet -- in effect , Chancellor Adolf Hitler -- the power to enact laws without the involvement of the Reichstag . It passed in both the Reichstag and Reichsrat on 24 March 1933 , and was signed by President Paul von Hindenburg later that day . The act stated that it was to last four years unless renewed by the Reichstag , which occurred twice . The Enabling Act gave Hitler plenary powers . It followed on the heels of the Reichstag Fire Decree , which abolished most civil liberties and transferred state powers to the Reich government . The combined effect of the two laws was to transform Hitler 's government into a legal dictatorship .

                              To become a Santero or Santera ( Priest or Priestess of Santería ) , the initiator must go through an intensive week - long initiation process in which the teaching of the ritual skills and moral behavior occurs informally and nonverbally . To begin with , the initiator goes through what is called a cleansing ritual . The initiator 's Padrino ( godfather ) cleanses the head with special herbs and water . The Padrino rubs the herbs and water in a specific pattern of movements into the scalp of the head . However , if a person is entering Santería for the need of healing , they will undergo the rogación de la cabeza ( blessing of the head ) , in which coconut water and cotton are applied on the head to feed it . Once cleansed , there are four major initiation rituals that the initiator will have to undergo : obtaining the elekes ( beaded necklace ) , receiving Los Guerreros ( the Warriors ) , making Ochá ( Saint ) , and Asiento ( ascending the throne ) .

                              This nerve can cause an electric shock - like sensation by striking the medial epicondyle of the humerus from posteriorly , or inferiorly with the elbow flexed . The ulnar nerve is trapped between the bone and the overlying skin at this point . This is commonly referred to as bumping one 's `` funny bone '' . This name is thought to be a pun , based on the sound resemblance between the name of the bone of the upper arm , the `` humerus '' and the word `` humorous '' . Alternatively , according to the Oxford English Dictionary it may refer to `` the peculiar sensation experienced when it is struck '' .

                              Career records for batting average are usually subject to a minimum qualification of 20 innings played or completed , in order to exclude batsmen who have not played enough games for their skill to be reliably assessed . Under this qualification , the highest Test batting average belongs to Australia 's Sir Donald Bradman , with 99.94 . Given that a career batting average over 50 is exceptional , and that only five other players have averages over 60 , this is an outstanding statistic . The fact that Bradman 's average is so far above that of any other cricketer has led several statisticians to argue that , statistically at least , he was the greatest athlete in any sport .

                              A pop and R&B ballad , the subjects of `` Best Thing I Never Had '' are revenge and karma . Not wanting to feel broken - hearted , the female protagonist sings that she feels happy to have left her lover , who did not recognize the potential for a happy life with her . Some critics viewed it as a sequel to Beyoncé 's 2006 single `` Irreplaceable '' as the two songs are thematically similar . However , some lyrics , including `` showed your ass '' and `` sucks to be you right now '' , were criticized . The ballad was also likened to Vanessa Carlton 's 2002 single `` A Thousand Miles '' ( 2002 ) .

Starting in the 1930s , relative poverty rates have consistently exceeded those of other wealthy nations . The lowest poverty rates are found in New Hampshire , Vermont , Minnesota and Nebraska , which have between 8.7 % and 9.1 % of their population living in poverty .

                              The Nationalist faction ( Spanish : Bando nacional ) or Rebel faction ( Spanish : Bando sublevado ) was a major faction in the Spanish Civil War of 1936 to 1939 . It was composed of a variety of political groups that supported the Spanish coup of July 1936 against the Second Spanish Republic , including the Falange , the CEDA , and two rival monarchist claimants : the Alfonsists and the Carlists . In 1937 , all the groups were merged into the Falange . One of the main leaders ( Spanish : Caudillo ) of the 1936 coup , General Francisco Franco , would lead this faction throughout the war and later would become the dictator of Spain from 1939 to 1975 .

                              In human anatomy , the ulnar nerve is a nerve that runs near the ulna bone . The ulnar collateral ligament of elbow joint is in relation with the ulnar nerve . The nerve is the largest unprotected nerve in the human body ( meaning unprotected by muscle or bone ) , so injury is common . This nerve is directly connected to the little finger , and the adjacent half of the ring finger , innervating the palmar aspect of these fingers , including both front and back of the tips , perhaps as far back as the fingernail beds .

                              The aorta is the root systemic artery . In humans , it receives blood directly from the left ventricle of the heart via the aortic valve . As the aorta branches , and these arteries branch in turn , they become successively smaller in diameter , down to the arterioles . The arterioles supply capillaries , which in turn empty into venules . The very first branches off of the aorta are the coronary arteries , which supply blood to the heart muscle itself . These are followed by the branches off the aortic arch , namely the brachiocephalic artery , the left common carotid , and the left subclavian arteries .

                              Crepuscular animals are those that are active primarily during twilight ( that is , the periods of dawn and dusk ) . This is distinguished from diurnal and nocturnal behavior , where an animal is active during the hours of daylight or the hours of darkness , respectively . The term is not precise , however , as some crepuscular animals may also be active on a moonlit night or during an overcast day . The term matutinal is used for animals that are active only before sunrise , and vespertine for those active only after sunset .

Originally for young men ages 18 -- 25 , it was eventually expanded to ages 17 -- 28 . Robert Fechner was the first director of the agency , succeeded by James McEntee following Fechner 's death . The CCC was a major part of President Franklin D. Roosevelt 's New Deal that provided unskilled manual labor jobs related to the conservation and development of natural resources in rural lands owned by federal , state , and local governments . The CCC was designed to provide jobs for young men and to relieve families who had difficulty finding jobs during the Great Depression in the United States . Maximum enrollment at any one time was 300,000 . Through the course of its nine years in operation , 3 million young men participated in the CCC , which provided them with shelter , clothing , and food , together with a wage of $30 ( about $570 in 2017 ) per month ( $25 of which had to be sent home to their families ) .

                              Paleo - Indians migrated from Asia to the North American mainland at least 15,000 years ago . European colonization began in the 16th century . The United States emerged from the thirteen British colonies established along the East Coast . Numerous disputes between Great Britain and the colonies following the French and Indian War led to the American Revolution , which began in 1775 , and the subsequent Declaration of Independence in 1776 . The war ended in 1783 with the United States becoming the first country to gain independence from a European power . The current constitution was adopted in 1788 , with the first ten amendments , collectively named the Bill of Rights , being ratified in 1791 to guarantee many fundamental civil liberties . The United States embarked on a vigorous expansion across North America throughout the 19th century , acquiring new territories , displacing Native American tribes , and gradually admitting new states until it spanned the continent by 1848 . During the second half of the 19th century , the Civil War led to the outlawing of slavery . By the end of the century , the United States had extended into the Pacific Ocean , and its economy , driven in large part by the Industrial Revolution , began to soar . The Spanish -- American War and World War I confirmed the country 's status as a global military power . The United States emerged from World War II as a global superpower , the first country to develop nuclear weapons , the only country to use them in warfare , and a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council . During the Cold War , the United States and the Soviet Union competed in the Space Race , culminating with the 1969 moon landing . The end of the Cold War and the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 left the United States as the world 's sole superpower .

The new exam was administered for the first time in March 2016 . Some of the major changes are : an emphasis on the use of evidence to support answers , a shift away from obscure vocabulary to words that students are more likely to encounter in college and career , a math section that is focused on fewer areas , a return to the 1600 - point score scale , an optional essay , and the removal of penalty for wrong answers ( rights - only scoring ) . To combat the perceived advantage of costly test preparation courses , the College Board announced a new partnership with Khan Academy to offer free online practice problems and instructional videos .

                              Second line is a tradition in brass band parades in New Orleans , Louisiana . The `` main line '' or `` first line '' is the main section of the parade , or the members of the actual club with the parading permit as well as the brass band . Those who follow the band just to enjoy the music are called the `` second line . '' The second line 's style of traditional dance , in which participants walk and sometimes twirl a parasol or handkerchief in the air , is called `` second lining . '' It has been called `` the quintessential New Orleans art form -- a jazz funeral without a body . '' Another significant difference from so called `` jazz funerals '' is second line parades usually lack the slow hymns and dirges played at funerals ( although this is not a hard rule ; some organizations may have the band play something solemn towards the start of the parade in memory of members deceased since their last parade ) .

An important patent for smart cards with a microprocessor and memory as used today was filed by Jürgen Dethloff in 1976 and granted as USP 4105156 in 1978 . In 1977 , Michel Ugon from Honeywell Bull invented the first microprocessor smart card with two chips : one microprocessor and one memory , and in 1978 , he patented the self - programmable one - chip microcomputer ( SPOM ) that defines the necessary architecture to program the chip . Three years later , Motorola used this patent in its `` CP8 '' . At that time , Bull had 1,200 patents related to smart cards . In 2001 , Bull sold its CP8 division together with its patents to Schlumberger , who subsequently combined its own internal smart card department and CP8 to create Axalto . In 2006 , Axalto and Gemplus , at the time the world 's top two smart - card manufacturers , merged and became Gemalto . In 2008 , Dexa Systems spun off from Schlumberger and acquired Enterprise Security Services business , which included the smart - card solutions division responsible for deploying the first large - scale smart - card management systems based on public key infrastructure ( PKI ) .

                              In 1297 , with the Portuguese part of the reconquista completed , King Dinis of Portugal took personal interest in exports and in 1317 he made an agreement with Genoese merchant sailor Manuel Pessanha ( Pesagno ) , appointing him first admiral of the Portuguese navy , with the goal of defending the country against Muslim pirate raids . Outbreaks of bubonic plague led to severe depopulation in the second half of the 14th century : only the sea offered alternatives , with most population settling in fishing and trading coastal areas . Between 1325 and 1357 Afonso IV of Portugal encouraged maritime commerce and ordered the first explorations . The Canary Islands , already known to the Genoese , were claimed as officially discovered under patronage of the Portuguese but in 1344 Castile disputed them , expanding their rivalry into the sea .

                              Zone defenses are common in international , college , and youth competition . In the National Basketball Association , zone defenses were prohibited until the 2001 -- 2002 season , and most teams do not use them as a primary defensive strategy . The NBA has a defensive three - second violation rule , which makes it more difficult for teams to play zone , since such defenses usually position a player in the middle of the key to stop penetration . The Dallas Mavericks under coach Rick Carlisle are an example of an NBA team that have regularly used zone defenses .

                              Experimental neuropsychology is an approach that uses methods from experimental psychology to uncover the relationship between the nervous system and cognitive function . The majority of work involves studying healthy humans in a laboratory setting , although a minority of researchers may conduct animal experiments . Human work in this area often takes advantage of specific features of our nervous system ( for example that visual information presented to a specific visual field is preferentially processed by the cortical hemisphere on the opposite side ) to make links between neuroanatomy and psychological function .

                              Neuropsychology is the study of the structure and function of the brain as they relate to specific psychological processes and behaviours . It is an experimental field of psychology that aims to understand how behavior and cognition are influenced by brain functioning and is concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of behavioral and cognitive effects of neurological disorders . Whereas classical neurology focuses on the physiology of the nervous system and classical psychology is largely divorced from it , neuropsychology seeks to discover how the brain correlates with the mind . It thus shares concepts and concerns with neuropsychiatry and with behavioral neurology in general . The term neuropsychology has been applied to lesion studies in humans and animals . It has also been applied to efforts to record electrical activity from individual cells ( or groups of cells ) in higher primates ( including some studies of human patients ) . It makes use of neuroscience , and shares an information processing view of the mind with cognitive psychology and cognitive science .

Such turns in ramps and trails may be called switchbacks in American English , by analogy with switchback railways . In British English `` switchback '' is more likely to refer to a heavily undulating road -- a use extended from the rollercoaster and the other type of switchback railway .

                              The Portuguese began systematically exploring the Atlantic coast of Africa from 1418 , under the sponsorship of Prince Henry . Under Henry 's direction , a new and much lighter ship was developed , the caravel , which could sail further and faster , and , above all , was highly manoeuvrable and could sail much nearer the wind , or into the wind . In 1488 Bartolomeu Dias reached the Indian Ocean by this route . In 1492 the Catholic Monarchs of Castile and Aragon funded Christopher Columbus 's plan to sail west to reach the Indies by crossing the Atlantic . He landed on a continent uncharted by Europeans and seen as a new world , the Americas . To prevent conflict between Portugal and Castile ( the crown under which Columbus made the voyage ) , the Treaty of Tordesillas was signed dividing the world into two regions of exploration , where each had exclusive rights to claim newly discovered lands .

                              The Boston Massacre , known as the Incident on King Street by the British , was an incident on March 5 , 1770 , in which British Army soldiers shot and killed people while under attack by a mob . The incident was heavily publicized by leading Patriots , such as Paul Revere and Samuel Adams , to encourage rebellion against the British authorities . British troops had been stationed in Boston , capital of the Province of Massachusetts Bay , since 1768 in order to protect and support crown - appointed colonial officials attempting to enforce unpopular Parliamentary legislation . Amid ongoing tense relations between the population and the soldiers , a mob formed around a British sentry , who was subjected to verbal abuse and harassment . He was eventually supported by eight additional soldiers , who were subjected to verbal threats and repeatedly hit by clubs , stones and snowballs . They fired into the crowd , without orders , instantly killing three people and wounding others . Two more people died later of wounds sustained in the incident .

Chinese had immigrated to the Western United States as a result of unsettled conditions in China , the availability of jobs working on railroads , and the Gold Rush that was going on at that time in California .

                              A tradition on the `` kettle '' started in 1891 , in San Francisco , by Salvation Army officer Captain Joseph McFee . Captain McFee , resolving to provide a free Christmas dinner to the poor of San Francisco , remembered a sight he saw in Liverpool , England . From his days as a sailor McFee remembered a large pot displayed on the Stage Landing , called `` Simpson 's Pot . '' The pot took in donations put in by passersby . Taking this idea , McFee asked for permission from San Francisco city authorities to place a crab pot and tripod at the Oakland ferry landing . The kettle - and McFee 's call of `` Keep the Pot Boiling ! '' - drew in passengers and donations .

                              Wireless communication uses electromagnetic waves to carry signals . These waves require line - of - sight , and are thus obstructed by the curvature of the Earth . The purpose of communications satellites is to relay the signal around the curve of the Earth allowing communication between widely separated points . Communications satellites use a wide range of radio and microwave frequencies . To avoid signal interference , international organizations have regulations for which frequency ranges or `` bands '' certain organizations are allowed to use . This allocation of bands minimizes the risk of signal interference .

Passenger class vehicles designed for off - road use are known as `` four - wheel drives '' , `` 4WDs '' , or `` 4 × 4s '' . Some manufacturers do refer to their products as SUVs , but others invented names such as XUV , ( HSV Avalanche XUV or GMC Envoy XUV ) or action utility vehicles ( AUVs ) . The term `` AWD '' , or all - wheel drive , is used for any vehicle which drives on all four wheels , but may not be designed for off - road use . `` Crossover '' is a marketing term for a vehicle that is both four - wheel - drive and primarily a road car .

                              The system of reservation in India comprises a series of action measures , such as reserving access to seats in the various legislatures , to government jobs , and to enrollment in higher educational institutions . The societal inequality in India is represented by the grossly inadequate representation of Scheduled Castes , Scheduled Tribes and Other Backward Castes in employment and education due to historic , societal and cultural reasons . The reservation nourishes the historically disadvantaged castes and tribes , listed as Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes by the Government of India . The reservation is undertaken to address the historic oppression , inequality and discrimination faced by those communities and to give these communities a place . It is intended to realize the promise of equality enshrined in the Constitution . However , there has been a serious debate about reservation .

                              Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka , 347 U.S. 483 ( 1954 ) , was a landmark United States Supreme Court case in which the Court declared state laws establishing separate public schools for black and white students to be unconstitutional . The decision effectively overturned the Plessy v. Ferguson decision of 1896 , which allowed state - sponsored segregation , insofar as it applied to public education . Handed down on May 17 , 1954 , the Warren Court 's unanimous ( 9 -- 0 ) decision stated that `` separate educational facilities are inherently unequal . '' As a result , de jure racial segregation was ruled a violation of the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment of the United States Constitution . This ruling paved the way for integration and was a major victory of the Civil Rights Movement , and a model for many future impact litigation cases . However , the decision 's fourteen pages did not spell out any sort of method for ending racial segregation in schools , and the Court 's second decision in Brown II ( 349 U.S. 294 ( 1955 ) ) only ordered states to desegregate `` with all deliberate speed '' .

                              It appears to have been written around 1872 but was first published in 1875 in Lowry and Doane 's song collection , `` Brightest and Best . '' It was already popular in Great Britain before publication . Ira Sankey had introduced it there during Moody 's 1873 - 1874 evangelistic campaigns . Despite this , the song failed to achieve wide usage in the United States and was included in very few hymnals . In 1954 Cliff Barrows , song leader for Billy Graham , was handed a copy with the suggestion that it be added to the song book for the London Crusade . It was so popular that he included it again later that year in the Crusade in Nashville , Tennessee . The audience responded enthusiastically and from that time on , he used it regularly . With this exposure , the song rapidly became familiar to a Christians worldwide and is included in most modern hymnals .

                              The video begins with Jepsen spying on her attractive tattooed neighbour ( Holden Nowell ) as he is working on his lawn . As he takes his shirt off and notices she is staring at him , Jepsen slips on her high heels and falls below her window . She is reading the books Love at First Sight ( Men In Uniform ) by B.J. Daniels and Skylar 's Outlaw by Linda Warren . The scene then cuts to her garage , where she is rehearsing the track with her band . Following the rehearsals , her bandmates push her to go and wash her car , where she tries to gain her neighbour 's attention with various provocative poses only to fall from the hood of the car . She is briefly knocked out from the fall , during which she dreams of a romance novel - type encounter with her crush against the backdrop of Peggys Cove . As she comes to , the neighbour then helps her get up , and watches the band rehearse the track again . After turning and writing down her telephone number , Jepsen sees her neighbour pass one of her male bandmates ( Tavish Crowe ) his own number , indicating he does n't like women at all and is gay , where the very end shows that Jepsen is taken aback by this . The video received three nominations on the 2012 MuchMusic Video Awards in the categories of UR Fave Video , Pop Video of the Year , and Video of the Year .

                              During World War I , the German Empire was one of the Central Powers that lost the war . It began participation in the conflict after the declaration of war against Serbia by its ally , Austria - Hungary . German forces fought the Allies on both the eastern and western fronts , although German territory itself remained relatively safe from widespread invasion for most of the war , except for a brief period in 1914 when East Prussia was invaded . A tight blockade imposed by the Royal Navy caused severe food shortages in the cities , especially in the winter of 1916 -- 17 , known as the Turnip Winter . At the end of the war , Germany 's defeat and widespread popular discontent triggered the German Revolution of 1918 -- 19 which overthrew the monarchy and established the Weimar Republic .

                              Synapsis ( also called syndesis ) is the pairing of two homologous chromosomes that occurs during meiosis . It allows matching - up of homologous pairs prior to their segregation , and possible chromosomal crossover between them . Synapsis takes place during prophase I of meiosis . When homologous chromosomes synapse , their ends are first attached to the nuclear envelope . These end - membrane complexes then migrate , assisted by the extranuclear cytoskeleton , until matching ends have been paired . Then the intervening regions of the chromosome are brought together , and may be connected by a protein - RNA complex called the synaptonemal complex . Autosomes undergo synapsis during meiosis , and are held together by a protein complex along the whole length of the chromosomes called the synaptonemal complex . Sex chromosomes also undergo synapsis ; however , the synaptonemal protein complex that holds the homologous chromosomes together is only present at one end of each sex chromosome .

                              `` If This World Were Mine '' is a 1967 song by soul music duo Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell from their album United . Written solely by Gaye , it was one of the few songs they recorded without Ashford & Simpson writing or producing . When it was released as a single in November 1967 as the B - side to the duo 's `` If I Could Build My Whole World Around You '' , it hit the Billboard pop singles chart , peaking at number sixty - eight , and peaked at number twenty - seven on the Billboard R&B singles chart . Gaye would later put the song into his set list during his last tours in the early - 1980s as he performed a medley of his hits with Terrell . The song was covered a year later by Joe Bataan on the 1968 Fania Allstars LP Live at the Red Garter , Vol. 2 , and in 1969 by Ambrose Slade ( pre-Slade ) on their album Beginnings .

                              Economists generally believe that high rates of inflation and hyperinflation are caused by an excessive growth of the money supply . Views on which factors determine low to moderate rates of inflation are more varied . Low or moderate inflation may be attributed to fluctuations in real demand for goods and services , or changes in available supplies such as during scarcities . However , the consensus view is that a long sustained period of inflation is caused by money supply growing faster than the rate of economic growth . Inflation may also lead to an invisible tax in which the value of currency is lowered in contrast with its actual reserve ultimately , leading individuals to hold devalued legal tender .

                              Partible pitched the series to Hanna - Barbera 's animation showcase What a Cartoon ! , basing it on his senior thesis project he produced while attending Loyola Marymount University . A pilot short aired on Cartoon Network in 1995 , and was followed by two more shorts ; the popularity of the shorts led to the network commissioning a half - hour series , which premiered on July 14 , 1997 . The series was renewed for a second season in 1999 , during which Partible left and the show was retooled under the direction of Kirk Tingblad . In 2003 , Partible returned to the series for a fourth season , restoring it to its original format and style . It ended on August 27 , 2004 , with a total of four seasons and 67 episodes . The first three seasons were produced by Hanna - Barbera Cartoons , while the fourth season was produced by Cartoon Network Studios .

                              In 1681 , in partial repayment of a debt , Charles II of England granted Penn a charter for what would become the Pennsylvania colony . Despite the royal charter , Penn bought the land from the local Lenape to be on good terms with the Native Americans and ensure peace for his colony . Penn made a treaty of friendship with Lenape chief Tammany under an elm tree at Shackamaxon , in what is now the city 's Fishtown neighborhood . Penn named the city Philadelphia , which is Greek for brotherly love , derived from the Ancient Greek terms φίλος phílos ( beloved , dear ) and ἀδελφός adelphós ( brother , brotherly ) . As a Quaker , Penn had experienced religious persecution and wanted his colony to be a place where anyone could worship freely . This tolerance , far more than afforded by most other colonies , led to better relations with the local native tribes and fostered Philadelphia 's rapid growth into America 's most important city .

                              Sparta and its allies , with the exception of Corinth , were almost exclusively land based powers , able to summon large land armies that were very nearly unbeatable . Under the direction of Pericles , the Athenians pursued a policy of retreat within the city walls of Athens , relying on Athenian maritime supremacy for supply while the superior Athenian navy harassed Spartan troop movements . Unfortunately the strategy also resulted in adding many people from the countryside to an already well - populated city , introducing a severe crowding factor as well as resource shortages . Due to the close quarters and poor hygiene exhibited at that time Athens became a breeding ground for disease and many citizens died including Pericles , his wife , and his sons Paralus and Xanthippus . In the history of epidemics the ' Plague ' of Athens is remarkable for its one - sided affliction and bias on the ultimate outcome of a war .

                              DNA was first isolated by Friedrich Miescher in 1869 . Its molecular structure was first identified by James Watson and Francis Crick at the Cavendish Laboratory within the University of Cambridge in 1953 , whose model - building efforts were guided by X-ray diffraction data acquired by Raymond Gosling , who was a post-graduate student of Rosalind Franklin . DNA is used by researchers as a molecular tool to explore physical laws and theories , such as the ergodic theorem and the theory of elasticity . The unique material properties of DNA have made it an attractive molecule for material scientists and engineers interested in micro - and nano - fabrication . Among notable advances in this field are DNA origami and DNA - based hybrid materials .

                              Spinal fusion , also called spondylodesis or spondylosyndesis , is a neurosurgical or orthopedic surgical technique that joins two or more vertebrae . This procedure can be performed at any level in the spine ( cervical , thoracic , or lumbar ) and prevents any movement between the fused vertebrae . There are many types of spinal fusion and each technique involves using bone grafting - either from the patient ( autograft ) , donor ( allograft ) , or artificial bone substitutes - to help the bones heal together . Additional hardware ( screws , plates , or cages ) is often used to hold the bones in place while the graft fuses the two vertebrae together .

                              According to Lincoln , the people of the United States had shown that they can be successful in establishing and administering a republic , but a third challenge faced the nation , maintaining the republic , based on the people 's vote . The people must now show : `` ... successful maintenance ( of the Republic ) against a formidable internal attempt to overthrow it . It is now for them to demonstrate to the world that those who can fairly carry an election can also suppress a rebellion ; that ballots are the rightful and peaceful successors of bullets ; and that when ballots have fairly and constitutionally decided , there can be no successful appeal back to bullets ; that there can be no successful appeal , except to ballots themselves , at succeeding elections . Such will be a great lesson of peace ; teaching men that what they can not take by an election , neither can they take it by a war ... ''

                              In chemistry , pH ( / piːˈeɪtʃ / ) ( potential of hydrogen ) is a logarithmic scale used to specify the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution . It is approximately the negative of the base 10 logarithm of the molar concentration , measured in units of moles per liter , of hydrogen ions . More precisely it is the negative of the base 10 logarithm of the activity of the hydrogen ion . Solutions with a pH less than 7 are acidic and solutions with a pH greater than 7 are basic . Pure water is neutral , at pH 7 ( 25 ° C ) , being neither an acid nor a base . Contrary to popular belief , the pH value can be less than 0 or greater than 14 for very strong acids and bases respectively .

                              This is a list of island countries . An island is a land mass ( smaller than a continent ) that is surrounded by water . Many island countries are spread over an archipelago , as is the case with the Federated States of Micronesia and the Indonesia ( which consists of thousands of islands ) . Others consist of a single island , such as Nauru , or part of an island , such as Haiti . Although Australia is designated as a continent , it is often referred to as an island , as it has no land borders . Some declared island countries are not universally recognized as politically independent , such as Northern Cyprus . Some states , such as Taiwan , officially claim to hold continental territories but are de facto limited to control over islands .

                              Let me not to the marriage of true minds Admit impediments . Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds , Or bends with the remover to remove : O , no ! it is an ever - fixed mark , That looks on tempests and is never shaken ; It is the star to every wandering bark , Whose worth 's unknown , although his height be taken . Love 's not Time 's fool , though rosy lips and cheeks Within his bending sickle 's compass come ; Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks , But bears it out even to the edge of doom . If this be error and upon me proved , I never writ , nor no man ever loved .

                              The law of diminishing returns states that in all productive processes , adding more of one factor of production , while holding all others constant ( `` ceteris paribus '' ) , will at some point yield lower incremental per - unit returns . The law of diminishing returns does not imply that adding more of a factor will decrease the total production , a condition known as negative returns , though in fact this is common .

                              Until the 1980s media relied primarily upon print and analog broadcast models , such as those of television and radio . The last twenty - five years have seen the rapid transformation into media which are predicated upon the use of digital technologies , such as the Internet and video games . However , these examples are only a small representation of new media . The use of digital computers has transformed the remaining ' old ' media , as suggested by the advent of digital television and online publications . Even traditional media forms such as the printing press have been transformed through the application of technologies such as image manipulation software like Adobe Photoshop and desktop publishing tools .

                              In the United States , automobile model - year sales traditionally begin with the fourth quarter of the preceding year . So model year refers to the sales model year ; for example , vehicles sold during the period from October 1 to September 30 of the following year belong to a single model year . In addition , the launch of the new model - year has long been coordinated to the launch of the traditional new television season ( as defined by A.C. Nielsen ) in late September , because of the heavy dependence between television to offer products from automakers to advertise , and the car companies to launch their new models at a high - profile time of year .

                              The letter J originated as a swash letter I , used for the letter I at the end of Roman numerals when following another I , as in XXIIJ or xxiij instead of XXIII or xxiii for the Roman numeral representing 23 . A distinctive usage emerged in Middle High German . Gian Giorgio Trissino ( 1478 -- 1550 ) was the first to explicitly distinguish I and J as representing separate sounds , in his Ɛpistola del Trissino de le lettere nuωvamente aggiunte ne la lingua italiana ( `` Trissino 's epistle about the letters recently added in the Italian language '' ) of 1524 . Originally , ' I ' and ' J ' were different shapes for the same letter , both equally representing / i / , / iː / , and / j / ; but , Romance languages developed new sounds ( from former / j / and / ɡ / ) that came to be represented as ' I ' and ' J ' ; therefore , English J , acquired from the French J , has a sound value quite different from / j / ( which represents the initial sound in the English word `` yet '' ) .

                              A field goal is normally 17 yards ( 7 yards in Canadian football ) longer than the distance of the line of scrimmage to the goal line , as it includes the end zone ( 10 yards ) and 7 yards to where the holder places the ball . In Canadian football , the goal posts are on the goal lines , in front of the end zones . Therefore , if the line of scrimmage is at the 30 , the field goal would be 47 yards ( in American football ) or 37 yards ( in Canadian football ) .

                              The signage for advisory speed limits is not defined by the Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals , and is therefore not standardised internationally . The United States uses a small yellow sign under the main warning sign , as well as a standalone variation on the standard speed limit sign , with a yellow background instead of a white one , the words `` speed limit '' omitted and an additional panel stating the type of hazard ahead . Though they list speeds , the U.S. advisory speed signs are classified as warning signs , not regulatory signs , as primary speed signs are . Australia uses a similar design as the U.S. in spite of regulatory speed limit signs being quite different . Germany used a square sign with a blue background and white lettering , similar to the minimum speed limit sign , and New Zealand uses a yellow background with black lettering ( similar to the Australian design without the `` km / h '' lettering ) . The United Kingdom currently uses an oblong white rectangle with black lettering stating `` Max Speed '' .

                                Critics of the prevailing system of fiat money argue that fiat money is the root cause of the continuum of economic crises , since it leads to the dominance of fraud , corruption , and manipulation precisely because it does not satisfy the criteria for a medium of exchange cited above . Specifically , prevailing fiat money is free floating and depending upon its supply market finds or sets a value to it that continues to change as the supply of money is changed with respect to the economy 's demand . Increasing free floating money supply with respect to needs of the economy reduces the quantity of the basket of the goods and services to which it is linked by the market and that provides it purchasing power . Thus it is not a unit or standard measure of wealth and its manipulation impedes the market mechanism by that it sets / determine just prices . That leads us to a situation where no value - related economic data is just or reliable . On the other hand , Chartalists claim that the ability to manipulate the value of fiat money is an advantage , in that fiscal stimulus is more easily available in times of economic crisis .

                                Pound for pound is a ranking used in combat sports , such as boxing or mixed martial arts , of who the better fighters are relative to their weight ( i.e. , adjusted to compensate for weight class ) . As these fighters do not compete directly , judging the best fighter pound for pound is subjective , and ratings vary . They may be based on a range of criteria including `` quality of opposition '' , factors such as how exciting the fighter is or how famous they are , or be an attempt to determine who would win if all those ranked were the same size . In boxing , the term was historically associated with fighters such as Benny Leonard and Sugar Ray Robinson who were widely considered to be the most skilled fighters of their day , to distinguish them from the generally more popular ( and better compensated ) heavyweight champions . Since 1990 , The Ring magazine has maintained a pound for pound rank of fighters . ESPN.com has a list for mixed martial artists . In December 2013 , Ronda Rousey became the first woman to appear on the top 10 of a mixed - gender major publication .

                                Hootie & the Blowfish formed in 1986 . The quartet met when they were freshmen at the University of South Carolina in Columbia . Bryan heard Rucker singing in the showers of the dorm they shared and was impressed by his vocal ability . They began playing cover tunes as The Wolf Brothers ; eventually they collaborated with Felber , a former high school bandmate of Bryan 's , and Jim `` Soni '' Sonefeld as Hootie & the Blowfish . The name is a conjunction of the nicknames of two of their college friends . Brantley Smith was the original drummer for the band .

                                Psychoanalysis is a set of theories and therapeutic techniques related to the study of the unconscious mind , which together form a method of treatment for mental - health disorders . The discipline was established in the early 1890s by Austrian neurologist Sigmund Freud and stemmed partly from the clinical work of Josef Breuer and others .

                                The Ten Commandments appear twice in the Hebrew Bible , in the books of Exodus and Deuteronomy . Modern scholarship has found likely influences in Hittite and Mesopotamian laws and treaties , but is divided over exactly when the Ten Commandments were written and who wrote them .

                                According to Jewish tradition , Exodus 20 : 1 -- 17 constitutes God 's first recitation and inscription of the ten commandments on the two tablets , which Moses broke in anger with his rebellious nation , and were later rewritten on replacement stones and placed in the ark of the covenant ; and Deuteronomy 5 : 4 -- 25 consists of God 's re-telling of the Ten Commandments to the younger generation who were to enter the Promised Land . The passages in Exodus 20 and Deuteronomy 5 contain more than ten imperative statements , totalling 14 or 15 in all .

                                As a result of the spike in public violence and the political instability of the constitutional monarchy , a party of six members of France 's Legislative Assembly was assigned the task of overseeing elections . The resulting Convention was founded with the dual purpose of abolishing the monarchy and drafting a new constitution . The Convention 's first act , on 10 August 1792 , was to establish the French First Republic and officially strip the king of all political powers . The King , by then a private citizen bearing his family name of Capet , was subsequently put on trial for crimes of high treason starting in December 1792 . On 16 January 1793 he was convicted , and on 21 January , he was executed by guillotine .

                                The Oregon Country was a predominantly American term referring to a disputed region of the Pacific Northwest of North America . The region was occupied by British and French Canadian fur traders from before 1810 , and American settlers from the mid-1830s , with its coastal areas north from the Columbia River frequented by ships from all nations engaged in the maritime fur trade , most of these from the 1790s through 1810s being Boston - based . The Oregon Treaty of 1846 ended disputed joint occupancy pursuant to the Treaty of 1818 and established the British - American boundary at the 49th parallel ( except Vancouver Island ) .

                                A seed is a competitor or team in a sport or other tournament who is given a preliminary ranking for the purposes of the draw . Players / teams are `` planted '' into the bracket in a manner that is typically intended so that the best do not meet until later in the competition . The term was first used in tennis , and is based on the idea of laying out a tournament ladder by arranging slips of paper with the names of players on them the way seeds or seedlings are arranged in a garden : smaller plants up front , larger ones behind .

                                Plūtō ( ( ˈpluːtoː ) ; genitive Plūtōnis ) is the Latinized form of the Greek Plouton . Pluto 's Roman equivalent is Dis Pater , whose name is most often taken to mean `` Rich Father '' and is perhaps a direct translation of Plouton . Pluto was also identified with the obscure Roman Orcus , like Hades the name of both a god of the underworld and the underworld as a place . The borrowed Greek name Pluto is sometimes used for the ruler of the dead in Latin literature , leading some mythology handbooks to assert misleadingly that Pluto was the Roman counterpart of Hades . Pluto ( Pluton in French and German , Plutone in Italian ) becomes the most common name for the classical ruler of the underworld in subsequent Western literature and other art forms .

                                The television series also took place in a fictionalized version of Sparta , Mississippi . While there is a real Sparta , the version of Sparta shown on television is very different from the real town . For example , the TV Sparta is situated along Interstate 20 , while the real town is nowhere near any interstate . During the first season , Hammond , Louisiana was the site of the show 's production . In the second season , the show was moved to Georgia , to an area east of Atlanta and it remained there for the rest of its run . The principal area of Sparta was in fact downtown Covington , Georgia . Rural scenes were filmed in a wide surrounding area , in the Georgia counties of Newton ( where Covington is located ) , Rockdale , Walton , Morgan , and Jasper . Decatur in Dekalb County was used as a stand - in for an episode as the Mississippi Capital city of Jackson , and Atlanta itself was used in one episode , in which Bubba worked on a case there . In fact , during the series ' run , many of the cast members had homes in the area and were often spotted in local restaurants and retail stores . The cast members would also go around to local schools to speak to students .

                                Radiotelegraphy using Morse code was vital during World War II , especially in carrying messages between the warships and the naval bases of the belligerents . Long - range ship - to - ship communication was by radio telegraphy , using encrypted messages because the voice radio systems on ships then were quite limited in both their range and their security . Radiotelegraphy was also extensively used by warplanes , especially by long - range patrol planes that were sent out by those navies to scout for enemy warships , cargo ships , and troop ships .

                                Of the companies amalgamated to form CTR , the most technologically significant was The Tabulating Machine Company , founded by Herman Hollerith , and specialized in the development of punched card data processing equipment . Hollerith 's series of patents on tabulating machine technology , first applied for in 1884 , drew on his work at the U.S. Census Bureau from 1879 -- 82 . Hollerith was initially trying to reduce the time and complexity needed to tabulate the 1890 Census . His development of punched cards in 1886 set the industry standard for the next 80 years of tabulating and computing data input .

                              • Pepsin is the main gastric enzyme . It is produced by the stomach cells called `` chief cells '' in its inactive form pepsinogen , which is a zymogen . Pepsinogen is then activated by the stomach acid into its active form , pepsin . Pepsin breaks down the protein in the food into smaller particles , such as peptide fragments and amino acids . Protein digestion , therefore , first starts in the stomach , unlike carbohydrate and lipids , which start their digestion in the mouth .

                                In roughly the middle of the square , equidistant between first and third base , and a few feet closer to home plate than to second base , is a low artificial hill called the pitcher 's mound . This is where the pitcher stands when throwing the pitch . Atop the mound is a white rubber slab , called the pitcher 's plate or pitcher 's rubber . It measures 6 inches ( 15 cm ) front - to - back and 2 feet ( 61 cm ) across , the front of which is exactly 60 feet 6 inches ( 18.44 m ) from the rear point of home plate . This peculiar distance was set by the rule makers in 1893 , not due to a clerical or surveying error as popular myth has it , but intentionally ( further details in History section ) .

                                The King 's Chamber is entirely faced with granite . Above the roof , which is formed of nine slabs of stone weighing in total about 400 tons , are five compartments known as Relieving Chambers . The first four , like the King 's Chamber , have flat roofs formed by the floor of the chamber above , but the final chamber has a pointed roof . Vyse suspected the presence of upper chambers when he found that he could push a long reed through a crack in the ceiling of the first chamber . From lower to upper , the chambers are known as `` Davison 's Chamber '' , `` Wellington 's Chamber '' , `` Nelson 's Chamber '' , `` Lady Arbuthnot 's Chamber '' , and `` Campbell 's Chamber '' . It is believed that the compartments were intended to safeguard the King 's Chamber from the possibility of a roof collapsing under the weight of stone above the Chamber . As the chambers were not intended to be seen , they were not finished in any way and a few of the stones still retain masons ' marks painted on them . One of the stones in Campbell 's Chamber bears a mark , apparently the name of a work gang .

                                The Rutherford model is a model of the atom devised by Ernest Rutherford . Rutherford directed the famous Geiger -- Marsden experiment in 1909 which suggested , upon Rutherford 's 1911 analysis , that J.J. Thomson 's plum pudding model of the atom was incorrect . Rutherford 's new model for the atom , based on the experimental results , contained the new features of a relatively high central charge concentrated into a very small volume in comparison to the rest of the atom and with this central volume also containing the bulk of the atomic mass of the atom . This region would be known as the `` nucleus '' of the atom .

                                The first Civic was introduced in July 1972 as a two - door model , followed by a three - door hatchback that September . With an 1169 cc transverse engine and front - wheel drive like the British Mini , the car provided good interior space despite overall small dimensions . Initially gaining a reputation for being fuel - efficient , reliable , and environmentally friendly , later iterations have become known for performance and sportiness , especially the Civic Type R , Civic VTi , Civic GTi and Civic SiR / Si .

                                Lucifer 's son Jack seems unsure of himself and the world . Dean tries to shoot him and he knocks out both Winchesters with a sonic scream , leaving to search for his father . He ends up at a local police station and seems mostly innocent but is unsure of , and unable to control , his power . Sam and Dean follow ; Dean insists on killing him but Sam sees Jack as just a child . While Dean explains what Jack is to a local officer , Jack explains he learned English from his mother and grew up quickly because she told him the world was dangerous ; she also said that Castiel was the father who would protect him . Three angels show up wanting to use Jack 's almost limitless power for themselves . The Winchesters banish two of them and kill the third ; Jack is stabbed in the heart in the process but is unharmed by the blade . Dean agrees to take him to the bunker , but only until they can find a way to kill him . They are on their own with Chuck not answering prayers . They give Castiel and Kelly a hunter 's funeral , also saying goodbye to Crowley and Mary whom they assume Lucifer killed . In the alternate world , Lucifer keeps Mary alive because he needs her for something .

                                On the way back to the bunker , the Winchesters and Jack stop at a hotel and are met by Donatello the prophet . Amara ate his soul , but he has been mentally making the moral choice ever since , and he was drawn to Jack 's power . Jack reads the Bible to learn more about himself and his family . Realizing he 'll need more protection , the Winchesters try to get him warding tattoos , but he reflexively attacks the tattoo artist for hurting him and his body heals the ink away . Dean takes this as proof that Jack will turn evil , while Sam thinks it 's because he lacks control . Meanwhile , the final Prince of Hell , Asmodeus , takes charge of Hell until Lucifer returns , disguising himself as Donatello to trick Jack into freeing the Shedim -- Hell 's darkest creatures -- to be a hero . The brothers and the real Donatello appear , and when Asmodeus hurts them , a flicker of Jack 's power makes him flee . At the bunker , Dean admits to Jack that he will kill him if he turns bad . In the alternate world , Lucifer protects Mary , intending to trade her for Jack when they get home . They meet an alternate version of Michael , who killed his world 's Lucifer . Michael is the stronger of the two , and keeps this Lucifer alive because he needs him for something .

Dean and Jody go to protect her son James and granddaughter Patience , who is unaware she has inherited Missouri 's gift . The wraith reappears and kills Missouri , as she knew it would . James reveals he cut his mother out of his life many years ago , as he grew up fearing she would get killed and also because he could n't forgive her after his wife Tess died after becoming sick despite Missouri saying she would be fine .

                                The Fall of the Western Roman Empire ( also called Fall of the Roman Empire or Fall of Rome ) was the process of decline in the Western Roman Empire in which it failed to enforce its rule , and its vast territory was divided into several successor polities . The Roman Empire lost the strengths that had allowed it to exercise effective control ; modern historians mention factors including the effectiveness and numbers of the army , the health and numbers of the Roman population , the strength of the economy , the competence of the Emperor , the religious changes of the period , and the efficiency of the civil administration . Increasing pressure from barbarians outside Roman culture also contributed greatly to the collapse . The reasons for the collapse are major subjects of the historiography of the ancient world and they inform much modern discourse on state failure .

                                1. Teams finishing 6 - 6 with one win against a team from the lower Football Championship Subdivision ( FCS ) , regardless of whether that FCS school meets NCAA scholarship requirements . Until now , an FCS win counted only if that opponent met the scholarship requirements -- specifically , that school had to award at least 90 % of the FCS maximum of 63 scholarship equivalents over a two - year period . In the 2012 season , programs in four FCS conferences can not meet the 90 % requirement ( 56.7 equivalents ) -- the Ivy League , which prohibits all athletic scholarships ; the Pioneer Football League and Georgetown , which do not currently award football scholarships ; and the Northeast Conference , which limits football scholarships to 38 equivalents .
                                2. 6 - 6 teams with two wins over FCS schools .
                                3. Teams that finish 6 - 7 with loss number seven in their conference championship game ( that has been eliminated by the conference championship waiver rule ) .
                                4. 6 - 7 teams that normally play a 13 - team schedule , such as Hawaii 's home opponents . Although Hawaii normally plays a 13 - game schedule , it only played 12 games in the 2012 season .
                                5. FCS teams who are in the final year of the two - year FBS transition process , if they have at least a 6 - 6 record .
                                6. Finally , 5 - 7 teams that have a top - 5 Academic Progress Rate ( APR ) score . This was later adjusted to allow other 5 - 7 teams to be selected thereafter -- in order of their APR .

                                Some ingredients are common in Mexican cuisine , but other ingredients not typically used in Mexico are often added . Tex - Mex cuisine is characterized by its heavy use of shredded cheese , meat ( particularly beef and pork ) , beans , peppers and spices , in addition to flour tortillas . Dishes such as Texas - style chili con carne , nachos , hard tacos and fajitas are all Tex - Mex inventions . Moreover , Tex - Mex has imported flavors from other spicy cuisines , such as the use of cumin , introduced by Spanish immigrants to Texas from the Canary Islands and used in Berber cuisine , but used in only a few central Mexican recipes .

                                The silk floss tree is cultivated mostly for ornamental purposes . Outside of private gardens around the world , it is often planted along urban streets in subtropical areas such as in Spain , South Africa , Australia , northern New Zealand and the southern USA , although its prickled trunks and limbs require safety buffer zones , especially around the trunks , in order to protect people and domesticated animals from its prickles .

                                The poem was published posthumously in 1890 in Poems : Series 1 , a collection of Dickinson 's poems assembled and edited by her friends Mabel Loomis Todd and Thomas Wentworth Higginson . The poem was published under the title `` The Chariot '' . It is composed in six quatrains with the meter alternating between iambic tetrameter and iambic trimeter . Stanzas 1 , 2 , 4 , and 6 employ end rhyme in their second and fourth lines , but some of these are only close rhyme or eye rhyme . In the third stanza , there is no end rhyme , but `` ring '' in line 2 rhymes with `` gazing '' and `` setting '' in lines 3 and 4 respectively . Internal rhyme is scattered throughout . Figures of speech include alliteration , anaphora , paradox , and personification . The poem personifies Death as a gentleman caller who takes a leisurely carriage ride with the poet to her grave . She also personifies immortality . The volta ( turn ) happens in the fourth quatrain . Structurally , the syllables shift from its constant 8 - 6 - 8 - 6 scheme to 6 - 8 - 8 - 6 . This parallels with the undertones of the sixth quatrain . The personification of death changes from one of pleasantry to one of ambiguity and morbidity : `` Or rather -- He passed Us -- / The Dews drew quivering and chill -- '' ( 13 - 14 ) . The imagery changes from its original nostalgic form of children playing and setting suns to Death 's real concern of taking the speaker to afterlife .

                                The first series of The Great British Bake Off , first aired on BBC Two on 17 August 2010 . Ten home bakers took part in a bake - off to test every aspect of their baking skills as they battled to be crowned the Great British Bake Off 's best amateur baker . Each week the nationwide tour saw bakers put through three challenges in a particular discipline , with some being eliminated from competition at the end of the episode . The rounds of the competition took place in various locations across the UK following a theme , for example , the episode on puddings would take place in Bakewell , bread baking would take place near Sandwich .

                                The Berlin Wall ( German : Berliner Mauer , pronounced ( bɛʁˈliːnɐ ˈmaʊ̯ɐ ) ( listen ) ) 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 cut off ( by land ) West Berlin from virtually all of surrounding East Germany and 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 .

                                Qutab Minar was established along with Quwwat - ul - Islam Mosque around 1192 by Qutab - ud - din Aibak , first ruler of the Delhi Sultanate . The mosque complex is one of the earliest that survives in the Indian subcontinent . The minaret is named after Qutab - ud - din Aibak , or Qutabuddin Bakhtiar Kaki , a Sufi saint . Its ground storey was built over the ruins of the Lal Kot , the citadel of Dhillika . Aibak 's successor Iltutmish added three more storeys . The minar 's topmost storey was damaged by lightning in 1369 and was rebuilt by Firoz Shah Tughlaq , who added another storey . In 1505 , an earthquake damaged Qutub Minar ; it was repaired by Sikander Lodi . On 1 September 1803 , a major earthquake caused serious damage . Major Robert Smith of the British Indian Army renovated the tower in 1828 and installed a pillared cupola over the fifth story , thus creating a sixth . The cupola was taken down in 1848 , under instructions from The Viscount Hardinge , then Governor General of India . It was reinstalled at ground level to the east of Qutab Minar , where it remains . It is known as `` Smith 's Folly '' .

                                Veronica is a female given name , the Latin transliteration of the Greek name Berenice , Βερενίκη . This was the Macedonian form of the Athenian Φερενίκη , Phereníkē , or Φερονίκη , Pheroníkē , from φέρειν , phérein , to bring , and νίκη , níkê , `` victory '' , i.e. `` she who brings victory '' . The Ancient Macedonian form of the name was popularized because of its extensive use as a royal feminine name by the reigning dynasties of the states of the Diadochi of Alexander the Great throughout the Eastern Mediterranean during the Hellenistic age , most notably by the Ptolemies of Egypt and by the Seleucids of Asia . In medieval etymology , Veronica was sometimes wrongly supposed to derive from Latin vera ( true ) and Greek eikon ( image ) . Its popularity in medieval and modern times is based mainly on the importance in Christianity of Saint Veronica and her Veil of Veronica . Pet forms of Veronica include Ronnie and Roni and the German Frony . In Russian , the pet form is Nika ( Ника ) . `` Veronica '' is a popular name in many countries in the Mediterranean , Eastern Europe , and Latin America , as well as southern Ireland , France , and French - speaking Canada .

                                In music , serialism is a method of composition using series of pitches , rhythms , dynamics , timbres or other musical elements . Serialism began primarily with Arnold Schoenberg 's twelve - tone technique , though some of his contemporaries were also working to establish serialism as a form of post-tonal thinking . Twelve - tone technique orders the twelve notes of the chromatic scale , forming a row or series and providing a unifying basis for a composition 's melody , harmony , structural progressions , and variations . Other types of serialism also work with sets , collections of objects , but not necessarily with fixed - order series , and extend the technique to other musical dimensions ( often called `` parameters '' ) , such as duration , dynamics , and timbre .

                                The Battle of Marengo was fought on 14 June 1800 between French forces under Napoleon Bonaparte and Austrian forces near the city of Alessandria , in Piedmont , Italy . Near the end of the day , the French overcame Gen. Michael von Melas 's surprise attack , driving the Austrians out of Italy and enhancing Napoleon 's political position in Paris as First Consul of France in the wake of his coup d'état the previous November .

                                Serialism of the first type is most specifically defined as the structural principle according to which a recurring series of ordered elements ( normally a set -- or row -- of pitches or pitch classes ) are used in order or manipulated in particular ways to give a piece unity . Serialism is often broadly applied to all music written in what Arnold Schoenberg called `` The Method of Composing with Twelve Notes related only to one another '' ( Schoenberg 1975 , 218 ; Anon . n.d. ) , or dodecaphony , and methods that evolved from his methods . It is sometimes used more specifically to apply only to music where at least one element other than pitch is subjected to being treated as a row or series . In such usages post-Webernian serialism will be used to denote works that extend serial techniques to other elements of music . Other terms used to make the distinction are twelve - note serialism for the former , and integral serialism for the latter .

                                In the United States , a continuing resolution ( often abbreviated to CR ) is a type of appropriations legislation . An appropriations bill is a bill that appropriates ( gives to , sets aside for ) money to specific federal government departments , agencies , and programs . The money provides funding for operations , personnel , equipment , and activities . Regular appropriations bills are passed annually , with the funding they provide covering one fiscal year . The fiscal year is the accounting period of the federal government , which runs from October 1 to September 30 of the following year . When Congress and the president fail to agree on and pass one or more of the regular appropriations bills , a continuing resolution can be passed instead . A continuing resolution continues the pre-existing appropriations at the same levels as the previous fiscal year ( or with minor modifications ) for a set amount of time . Continuing resolutions typically provide funding at a rate or formula based on the previous year 's funding . The funding extends until a specific date or regular appropriations bills are passed , whichever comes first . There can be some changes to some of the accounts in a continuing resolution . The continuing resolution takes the form of a joint resolution , and may provide bridging funding for existing federal programs at current , reduced , or expanded levels .

                                  Producer Norman Whitfield recorded `` I Heard It Through the Grapevine '' with various Motown artists . The first known recording is with the Miracles on August 6 , 1966 , though there may also have been a recording with the Isley Brothers , or at least Whitfield intended to record it with them ; however a track has not turned up -- some Motown historians believe that a session may have been scheduled but cancelled . The Miracles ' version was not released as a single due to Berry Gordy 's veto during Motown 's weekly quality control meetings ; Gordy advised Whitfield and Strong to create a stronger single . The Miracles version later appeared on their 1968 Special Occasion album , and a slightly different take , possibly from the same session but unreleased , appeared on the 1998 compilation album , Motown Sings Motown Treasures .

                                  In 1038 , Kraków became the seat of the Polish government . By the end of the 10th century , the city was a leading centre of trade . Brick buildings were constructed , including the Royal Wawel Castle with St. Felix and Adaukt Rotunda , Romanesque churches such as St. Adalbert 's , a cathedral , and a basilica . The city was sacked and burned during the Mongol invasion of 1241 . It was rebuilt practically identical , based on new location act and incorporated in 1257 by the high duke Bolesław V the Chaste who following the example of Wrocław , introduced city rights modelled on the Magdeburg law allowing for tax benefits and new trade privileges for the citizens . In 1259 , the city was again ravaged by the Mongols . A third attack in 1287 was repelled thanks in part to the new built fortifications . In 1335 , King Casimir III of Poland ( Kazimierz in Polish ) declared the two western suburbs to be a new city named after him , Kazimierz ( Casimiria in Latin ) . The defensive walls were erected around the central section of Kazimierz in 1362 , and a plot was set aside for the Augustinian order next to Skałka .

                                  At 5 : 15 a.m. , Richardson 's brigade fired a few artillery rounds across Mitchell 's Ford on the Confederate right , some of which hit Beauregard 's headquarters in the Wilmer McLean house as he was eating breakfast , alerting him to the fact that his offensive battle plan had been preempted . Nevertheless , he ordered demonstration attacks north toward the Union left at Centreville . Bungled orders and poor communications prevented their execution . Although he intended for Brig. Gen. Richard S. Ewell to lead the attack , Ewell , at Union Mills Ford , was simply ordered to `` hold ... in readiness to advance at a moment 's notice '' . Brig. Gen. D.R. Jones was supposed to attack in support of Ewell , but found himself moving forward alone . Holmes was also supposed to support , but received no orders at all .

                                  Jordan played three seasons for coach Dean Smith at the University of North Carolina . As a freshman , he was a member of the Tar Heels ' national championship team in 1982 . Jordan joined the Bulls in 1984 as the third overall draft pick . He quickly emerged as a league star , entertaining crowds with his prolific scoring . His leaping ability , demonstrated by performing slam dunks from the free throw line in slam dunk contests , earned him the nicknames Air Jordan and His Airness . He also gained a reputation for being one of the best defensive players in basketball . In 1991 , he won his first NBA championship with the Bulls , and followed that achievement with titles in 1992 and 1993 , securing a `` three - peat '' . Although Jordan abruptly retired from basketball before the beginning of the 1993 -- 94 NBA season and started a new career playing minor league baseball , he returned to the Bulls in March 1995 and led them to three additional championships in 1996 , 1997 , and 1998 , as well as a then - record 72 regular - season wins in the 1995 -- 96 NBA season . Jordan retired for a second time in January 1999 , but returned for two more NBA seasons from 2001 to 2003 as a member of the Wizards .

                                  Zeus starts the fight by knocking Atom down with its first punch , but Atom gets up , and Zeus continues its assault , knocking Atom down multiple times , but each time Atom gets back up , and eventually is able to land its first punch , a right uppercut . Atom survives the first round , stunning the audience . Ricky , who had made a bet with a friend of Charlie 's of $100,000 that Atom would not last the round , tries to slip away , but is cornered by the fight 's bookmakers . The two opponents go back and forth throughout the fight , Atom landing multiple punches but also getting knocked down many times , getting back up for each of them . Late in the fourth round , Atom 's vocal - respond controls are damaged , forcing Charlie to use its `` shadow function '' to make it mimic his boxing skills . This , and the fact that Zeus starts running out of power from its constant offense , tip the odds in Atom 's favor , forcing Zeus ' programmer to manually control it , and Max and Bailey both watch Charlie doing what he was meant to do , and are touched by seeing him literally fighting for his son . Zeus gets a sound beating , once even hitting the ground and barely avoiding losing by knockout , but survives the final round and wins the match by the judges ' decision . The technologically superior machine remains undefeated , but with the humiliation of being fought to a near - loss , to which Atom is hailed the `` People 's Champion '' .

                                  German Shepherds have a two - layer coat which is close and dense with a thick undercoat . The coat is accepted in two variants ; medium and long . The long - hair gene is recessive , making the long - hair variety rarer . Treatment of the long - hair variation differs across standards ; they are accepted but not competed with standard coated dogs under the German and UK Kennel Clubs while they can compete with standard coated dogs but are considered a fault in the American Kennel Club . The FCI accepted the long - haired type in 2010 , listing it as the variety b -- while short - haired type is listed as the variety a .

These three sections of highway were 11.8 , 54.7 and 41.2 km , ( 7.3 , 34.0 and 25.6 mi ) , respectively . In 1964 , the route became fully navigable from Windsor to the Ontario -- Quebec border . In 1965 it was given a second designation , the Macdonald -- Cartier Freeway , in honour of two Fathers of Confederation . At the end of 1968 , the Gananoque -- Brockville section was bypassed and the final intersection grade - separated near Kingston , making Highway 401 a freeway for its entire 817.9 - km length . On August 24 , 2007 , the portion of the highway between Glen Miller Road in Trenton and the Don Valley Parkway / Highway 404 Junction in Toronto was designated the Highway of Heroes , as the road is travelled by funeral convoys for fallen Canadian Forces personnel from CFB Trenton to the coroner 's office in Toronto . On September 27 , 2013 , the Highway of Heroes designation was extended west to Keele Street in Toronto , to coincide with the move of the coroner 's office to the new Forensic Services and Coroner 's Complex at the Humber River Hospital .

                                  In 1985 , the United States Office of Management and Budget ( OMB ) issued OMB Circular A-128 , `` Audits of State and Local Governments , '' to help recipients and auditors implement the new Single Audit . In 1990 , OMB administratively extended the Single Audit process to non-profit organizations by issuing OMB Circular A-133 , `` Audits of Institutions of Higher Education and Other Non-Profit Organizations '' which superseded OMB A-128 . These new guides and provisions standardized the Single Audit in the United States to include all states , local governments , non-profit organizations , and institutions that receive federal funds from the US government . On December 26 , 2013 , OMB issued the Uniform Administrative Requirements , Cost Principles , and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards , which standardized compliance and audit requirements for government entities , non-profit organizations and institutions of higher education .

Article One , Section Three of the United States Constitution provides that the Vice President of the United States is , despite not being a U.S. Senator , the President of the Senate , and mandates that the Senate must choose a President pro tempore to act in the Vice President 's absence . Unlike the Vice President , the President pro tempore is an elected member of the Senate , able to speak or vote on any issue . Selected by the Senate at large , the President pro tempore has enjoyed many privileges and some limited powers .

                                  On election day , as the districts were drawn to favor Douglas ' party , the Democrats won 40 seats in the state house of Representatives , and the Republicans won 35 . In the state senate , Republicans held 11 seats , and Democrats held 14 . Stephen A. Douglas was reelected by the legislature , 54 - 46 , even though Lincoln 's Republicans won the popular vote with a percentage of 50.6 % , or by 3,402 votes . However , the widespread media coverage of the debates greatly raised Lincoln 's national profile , making him a viable candidate for nomination as the Republican candidate in the upcoming 1860 presidential election . He would go on to secure both the nomination and the presidency , beating Douglas ( as the Northern Democratic candidate ) , among others , in the process .

                                  The signing of the United States Declaration of Independence occurred primarily on August 2 , 1776 at the Pennsylvania State House , Independence Hall in Philadelphia , Pennsylvania . The 56 delegates to the Second Continental Congress represented the 13 former colonies which had declared themselves the `` United States of America , '' and they endorsed the Declaration of Independence which the Congress had approved on July 4 , 1776 . The Declaration proclaimed that the former Thirteen Colonies then at war with Great Britain were now a sovereign , independent nation and thus no longer a part of the British Empire . The signers ' names are grouped by state , with the exception of President of the Continental Congress John Hancock ; the states are arranged geographically from north to south .

                                  Henry Purcell ( / ˈpɜːrsəl / or / pɜːrˈsɛl / ; c. 10 September 1659 -- 21 November 1695 ) was an English composer . Although incorporating Italian and French stylistic elements into his compositions , Purcell 's legacy was a uniquely English form of Baroque music . He is generally considered to be one of the greatest English composers ; no other native - born English composer approached his fame until Edward Elgar , Ralph Vaughan Williams , William Walton and Benjamin Britten in the 20th century .

                                  The term Reconstruction Era , in the context of the history of the United States , has two senses : the first covers the complete history of the entire country from 1865 to 1877 following the American Civil War ( 1861 to 1865 ) ; the second sense focuses on the attempted transformation of the Southern United States from 1863 to 1877 , as directed by Congress , from states with economies dependent upon slavery , to states in which former slaves were citizens with civil rights . With the three Reconstruction Amendments , the era saw the first amendments to the U.S. Constitution in decades .

                                  A piñata ( / pɪnˈjɑːtə / , US pronunciation / pɪnˈjɑːdɑː / , Spanish pronunciation : ( piˈɲata ) ( listen ) ) is a container often made of papier - mâché , pottery , or cloth ; it is decorated , and filled with small toys or candy , or both , and then broken as part of a ceremony or celebration . Piñatas are commonly associated with Mexico . The idea of breaking a container filled with treats came to Europe in the 14th century , where the name , from the Italian pignatta , was introduced . The Spanish brought the European tradition to Mexico , although there were similar traditions in Mesoamerica , such as the Aztecs ' honoring the birthday of the god Huitzilopochtli in mid December . According to local records , the Mexican piñata tradition began in the town of Acolman , just north of Mexico City , where piñatas were introduced for catechism purposes as well as to co-opt the Huitzilopochtli ceremony . Today , the piñata is still part of Mexican culture , the cultures of other countries in Latin America , as well as the United States , but it has mostly lost its religious character .

                                  15 minutes of fame is short - lived media publicity or celebrity of an individual or phenomenon . The expression was inspired by Andy Warhol 's words `` In the future , everyone will be world - famous for 15 minutes '' , which appeared in the program for a 1968 exhibition of his work at the Moderna Museet in Stockholm , Sweden . Photographer Nat Finkelstein claims credit for the expression , stating that he was photographing Warhol in 1966 for a proposed book . A crowd gathered trying to get into the pictures and Warhol supposedly remarked that everyone wants to be famous , to which Finkelstein replied , `` Yeah , for about fifteen minutes , Andy . '' The phenomenon is often used in reference to figures in the entertainment industry or other areas of popular culture , such as reality television and YouTube .

                                  Armed conflict began in 1775 . In 1776 , the Second Continental Congress declared a new , independent nation : the United States of America . Led by General George Washington , it won the Revolutionary War with large support from France . The peace treaty of 1783 gave the new nation the land east of the Mississippi River ( except Canada and Florida ) . The Articles of Confederation established a central government , but it was ineffectual at providing stability , as it could not collect taxes and had no executive officer . A convention in 1787 wrote a new Constitution that was adopted in 1789 . In 1791 , a Bill of Rights was added to guarantee inalienable rights . With Washington as the first president and Alexander Hamilton his chief adviser , a strong central government was created . Purchase of the Louisiana Territory from France in 1803 doubled the size of the United States . A second and final war with Britain was fought in 1812 , which solidified national pride .

                                  The Bilingual Education Act ( BEA ) ( 81 Stat. 816 ) , also known as Title VII of the Elementary and Secondary Education Amendments of 1967 ( Pub. L. 90 -- 247 ) , approved by the 90th United States Congress on January 2 , 1968 , and was the first United States federal legislation recognized the needs of limited English speaking ability ( LESA ) students . The BEA was introduced in 1967 by Texas senator Ralph Yarborough and was signed by President Lyndon B. Johnson on January 2 , 1968 . While some states , such as California and Texas , and numerous local school districts around the country already had policies and programs designed to meet the special educational needs of elementary and secondary school students not fluent in the English language , this act signaled that the federal government now also recognized the need for and value of bilingual education programs in U.S. public education . Passed on the heels of the Civil Rights movement , its purpose was to provide school districts with federal funds , in the form of competitive grants , to establish innovative educational programs for students with limited English speaking ability .

                                  Acceding to the throne in 1888 , he dismissed the Chancellor , Otto von Bismarck , in 1890 and launched Germany on a bellicose `` New Course '' in foreign affairs that culminated in his support for Austria - Hungary in the crisis of July 1914 that led in a matter of days to the First World War . Bombastic and impetuous , he sometimes made tactless pronouncements on sensitive topics without consulting his ministers , culminating in a disastrous Daily Telegraph interview in 1908 that cost him most of his influence . His leading generals , Paul von Hindenburg and Erich Ludendorff , dictated policy during the First World War with little regard for the civilian government . An ineffective war - time leader , he lost the support of the army , abdicated in November 1918 , and fled to exile in the Netherlands .
