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 .

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 phrase has also been used as slang for certain drugs . An Oxford Reference page defined `` Beam me up , Scotty '' as `` a mixture of phencyclidine and cocaine '' and to `` talk to Scotty , high off Scotty , see Scotty ... etc . '' .

The Treaty of Brest - Litovsk was a peace treaty signed on 3 March 1918 between the new Bolshevik government of Soviet Russia and the Central Powers ( Germany , Austria - Hungary , Bulgaria , and the Ottoman Empire ) , that ended Russia 's participation in World War I . The treaty was signed at Brest - Litovsk ( Polish : Brześć Litewski ; since 1945 Brest ) , after two months of negotiations . The treaty was agreed upon by the Bolshevik government to stop further advances by German and Austro - Hungarian forces . According to the treaty , Soviet Russia defaulted on all of Imperial Russia 's commitments to the Triple Entente alliance .

It is the only game in the series to feature multiplayer for both competitive and cooperative play . Set six months after Kratos killed his wife and child , he has been imprisoned by the three Furies for breaking his blood oath to Ares . With the help of the oath keeper Orkos , Kratos learns that Ares and the Furies plan to overthrow Mount Olympus . The Spartan escapes his imprisonment , subsequently killing the Furies , and Orkos , who begs for release . Although free of Ares ' bond , Kratos begins to suffer the nightmares that plague him for years .


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 .

Beauty and the Beast ( French : La Belle et la Bête ) is a traditional fairy tale written by French novelist Gabrielle - Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve and published in 1740 in La Jeune Américaine et les contes marins ( The Young American and Marine Tales ) . Her lengthy version was abridged , rewritten , and published first by Jeanne - Marie Leprince de Beaumont in 1756 in Magasin des enfants ( Children 's Collection ) and by Andrew Lang in the Blue Fairy Book of his Fairy Book series in 1889 , to produce the version ( s ) most commonly retold . It was influenced by some earlier stories , such as `` Cupid and Psyche '' , written by Lucius Apuleius Madaurensi in The Golden Ass in the 2nd century AD , and `` The Pig King '' . an Italian fairytale published by Giovanni Francesco Straparola in The Facetious Nights of Straparola .


The first series was recorded at Granada Studios in Manchester , but has since been recorded at The Maidstone Studios in Maidstone , Kent , as it offered increased space and capacity for audience members .

If all the women turn off their lights before the end of the third round - this is referred to as a `` blackout '' - then the man must leave the show without going on a date , accompanied by the Céline Dion version of the hit Eric Carmen song `` All by Myself '' . In the first series , the successful couples conducted their date at FERNANDO 'S ! in Manchester , which is actually Club Bijou on Chapel Street , the outcome of which is shown as part of the following week 's show . For the second series , the date took place abroad on the Isle of FERNANDO 'S ! , a fictional location based in Puerto de la Cruz , Tenerife . Previously the date took place in Cyprus .

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 .

In January 2016 , Netflix announced that Neil Patrick Harris had been cast as Count Olaf and Malina Weissman and Louis Hynes were cast as Violet and Klaus . Handler had first considered Harris for the role of Olaf after seeing him perform the opening number `` It 's Not Just for Gays Anymore '' , at the 65th Tony Awards in 2011 , noting `` I just immediately saw someone who could pull off a million things at once '' as was necessary for the character of Olaf , who utilizes various disguises and accents in his quest to steal the Baudelaire fortune .

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 .

The United States presidential line of succession is the order in which persons may become or act as President of the United States if the incumbent President becomes incapacitated , dies , resigns , or is removed from office ( by impeachment by the House of Representatives and subsequent conviction by the Senate ) . The line of succession is set by the United States Constitution and the Presidential Succession Act of 1947 as subsequently amended to include newly created cabinet offices . The succession follows the order of Vice President , Speaker of the House of Representatives , President pro tempore of the Senate , and then the heads of federal executive departments who form the Cabinet of the United States . The Cabinet currently has fifteen members , beginning with the Secretary of State , and followed by the rest in the order of their positions ' creation . Those heads of department who are ineligible to act as President are also ineligible to succeed the President by succession , for example most commonly if they are not a natural - born U.S. citizen .


In the summer of 2011 , regulations were changed to allow for wearing of sew - on embroidered skill badges like the ones worn on the older BDUs . The 5 - badge limit remained in effect , and there could be no mixing of sew - on and pin - on badges . At the same time , the US Army tape , personal nametapes , and rank insignia could be sewn - on at the wearers preference . Skill tabs , such as the President 's Hundred Tab , Special Forces , Ranger , and Sapper are worn on the left sleeve pocket flap , and are subject to a 3 - tab - only rule . A tab that is an integral part of a unit patch , such as the `` Mountain '' or `` Airborne '' tab , is not counted against the rule . The U.S. Army Chaplain insignia is the only authorized army branch insignia to be worn on the ACU . It is centered 1 / 8 inch above the right name tape . The insignia may be the metal pin - on variety or the black embroidered insignia on digitized fabric with Velcro fasteners .

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 .

Most blackjack games have a house edge of between 0.5 % and 1 % , placing blackjack among the cheapest casino table games . Casino promotions such as complimentary matchplay vouchers or 2 : 1 blackjack payouts allow the player to acquire an advantage without deviating from basic strategy .


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 .

American video game designer Roger Dearly ( Jeff Daniels ) lives with his pet dalmatian Pongo in London . One day , Pongo sets his eyes on a beautiful female dalmatian named Perdy . After a frantic chase through the streets of London that ends in St. James 's Park , Roger discovers that Pongo likes Perdy . Her owner , Anita Campbell - Green ( Joely Richardson ) falls in love with Roger when they meet . They both fall into the lake as a result of their dogs chasing each other , but they return to Roger 's home and Anita accepts his proposal . They get married along with Perdita and Pongo . Anita works as a fashion designer at the House of de Vil . Her boss , the pampered and very glamorous Cruella de Vil ( Glenn Close ) , has a deep passion for fur , going so far as to have a taxidermist , Mr Skinner , skin a white tiger at the London Zoo to make it into a rug for her . Anita , inspired by her dalmatian , designs a coat made with spotted fur . Cruella is intrigued by the idea of making garments out of actual dalmatians , and finds it amusing that it would seem as if she was wearing Anita 's dog .


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 .

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 .


Alfred Thomas `` Freddie '' Highmore ( born 14 February 1992 ) is an English actor . He made his professional acting debut in the comedy film Women Talking Dirty ( 1999 ) . He is known for his roles in the films Finding Neverland ( 2004 ) , Charlie and the Chocolate Factory ( 2005 ) , and The Spiderwick Chronicles ( 2008 ) , and in the television series Bates Motel and The Good Doctor . For his roles in the first two , he won two consecutive Critics ' Choice Movie Awards for Best Young Performer .


The show 's original three lifelines are `` 50 / 50 '' , in which the computer eliminates two of the incorrect answers ; `` Phone a Friend '' , in which the contestant makes a thirty - second call to one of a number of friends ( who provide their phone numbers in advance ) and reads them the question and answer choices , after which the friend provides input ; and `` Ask the Audience '' , in which audience members use touch pads to designate what they believe the correct answer to be , after which the percentage of the audience choosing each specific option is displayed to the contestant . 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 .


What Is To Be Done ? Burning Questions of Our Movement ( Russian : Что делать ? , tr . Chto delat ' ? ) , is a political pamphlet written by the Russian revolutionary Vladimir Lenin in 1901 and published in 1902 .

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 .

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 .


Nissan Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium in Nashville , Tennessee , United States , owned by the Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County . It is primarily used for football and is the home field of the Tennessee Titans of the National Football League ( NFL ) and the Tennessee State Tigers of Tennessee State University . The stadium is also the site of the Franklin American Mortgage Music City Bowl , a postseason college football bowl game played each December , and is occasionally used as a venue for soccer matches . Nissan Stadium is used for large concerts , such as the CMA Music Festival nightly concerts which take place for four days every June . Facilities are included to enable the stadium to host other public events , meetings , parties , and gatherings .
