On Founder 's Day , Anna gives Jeremy a vial of her blood , telling him that if he drinks it he will die and become a vampire . She goes to the remaining tomb vampires , then reveals their plans to Damon -- possibly to protect Jeremy . Damon warns her about the device ; she is protecting Jeremy when John Gilbert sets it off , and was immediately incapacitated . A policeman finds her with Jeremy , injects her with vervain and takes her to the Gilbert building to be burned with other vampires , repeating the 1864 plan to eradicate their kind . When John Gilbert sees Anna lying in the building with the other vampires , he stakes her ; her body is burned with the others . Damon sees this and later tells Jeremy how Anna died , regretting that he was n't able to help . Jeremy questions whether it would be better to be a vampire and Damon admits it would be easier to turn the emotions off . Later , Jeremy drinks Anna 's blood and takes all of Elena 's sleeping pills .

Balaam sends back word that he can only do what YHWH commands , and God has , via a nocturnal dream , told him not to go . Balak consequently sends higher - ranking priests and offers Balaam honours ; Balaam continues to press God , and God finally permits him to go but with instructions to say only what he commands . Balaam then sets out in the morning with the princes of Moab . God becomes angry that he went , and sends the Angel of the Lord ( Numbers 22 : 22 ) to prevent him . At first , the angel is seen only by the donkey Balaam is riding , which tries to avoid the angel . After Balaam starts punishing the donkey for refusing to move , it is miraculously given the power to speak to Balaam ( Numbers 22 : 28 ) , and it complains about Balaam 's treatment . At this point , Balaam is allowed to see the angel , who informs him that the donkey is the only reason the angel did not kill Balaam . Balaam immediately repents , but is told to go on .


In 1871 A.D. Pt . Buddhiballav Pant opened a debating club . When Sir William Muir , the then provincial Governor , came here he was highly pleased with the working of this club . It is said that he also advised to open a press here and publish a newspaper . Mr. Pant , as advised , opened a press here and started publishing a weekly magazine Almora Akhbar . Almora Akhbar was the oldest Hindi weekly of this province . In 1913 A.D. Badri Datt Pandey took over the editing work of the magazine . Almora Akhbar made much progress ; The number of its customers rose from 50 - 60 to 1500 ; however , it was closed in 1917 . In 1918 one of the partners purchased the Debating Club Press and named it Vindhyavasini Press . From 1922 A.D. a weekly named Zila Samachar began to be published . Later on it came to be called Kumaun Kumud and was still being published till the late 30 's .


A real estate contract is a contract between parties for the purchase and sale , exchange , or other conveyance of real estate . The sale of land is governed by the laws and practices of the jurisdiction in which the land is located . Real estate called leasehold estate is actually a rental of real property such as an apartment , and leases ( rental contracts ) cover such rentals since they typically do not result in recordable deeds . Freehold ( `` More permanent '' ) conveyances of real estate are covered by real estate contracts , including conveying fee simple title , life estates , remainder estates , and freehold easements . Real estate contracts are typically bilateral contracts ( i.e. , agreed to by two parties ) and should have the legal requirements specified by contract law in general and should also be in writing to be enforceable .


In Rococo - era France , an enchantress disguised as an old beggar woman arrives at a castle during a ball and offers the host , a coldhearted prince , a rose for shelter . When he refuses , she reveals her identity as an enchantress and transforms him into a beast and his servants into household objects , then erases the castle , the prince and his servants from the memories of their loved ones . She casts a spell on the rose and warns the prince that the curse will never lift unless he learns to love another , and earn their love in return , before the last petal falls .


  Le Fou

  First appearance 	  Beauty and the Beast ( 1991 )

  Portrayed by 	  Josh Gad ( live - action film )

  Voiced by 	  Jesse Corti


In the movie , Le Fou was voiced by Venezuelan voice actor Jesse Corti , who also voiced Le Fou in the Spanish - language dub of the film , making Le Fou one of the few characters to share the same voice actor in two different dubs of the movie .


William Cooke and Charles Wheatstone introduced their working telegraph in 1839 . As early as 1840 Samuel F.B. Morse proclaimed his faith in the idea of a submarine line across the Atlantic Ocean . By 1850 a cable was run between England and France . That same year Bishop John T. Mullock , head of the Roman Catholic Church in Newfoundland , proposed a telegraph line through the forest from St. John 's to Cape Ray , and cables across the Gulf of St. Lawrence from Cape Ray to Nova Scotia across the Cabot Strait .


Group 11 , by modern IUPAC numbering , is a group of chemical elements in the periodic table , consisting of copper ( Cu ) , silver ( Ag ) , and gold ( Au ) . Roentgenium ( Rg ) is also placed in this group in the periodic table , although no chemical experiments have yet been carried out to confirm that it behaves like the heavier homologue to gold . Group 11 is also known as the coinage metals , due to their former usage . They were most likely the first three elements discovered . Copper , silver , and gold all occur naturally in elemental form .


A monocot related to lilies and grasses , yams are a vigorous herbaceous vine , providing an edible tuber . Yams are also an invasive plant , often considered a `` noxious weed '' , outside cultivated areas . Native to Africa and Asia , yam tubers vary in size from that of a small potato to over 60 kg ( 130 lb ) . Some 870 species of yams are known , and 95 % of these crops are grown in Africa .


`` You 'll Never Walk Alone '' is a show tune from the 1945 Rodgers and Hammerstein musical Carousel . In the second act of the musical , Nettie Fowler , the cousin of the female protagonist Julie Jordan , sings `` You 'll Never Walk Alone '' to comfort and encourage Julie when her husband , Billy Bigelow , the male lead , commits suicide after a failed robbery attempt . It is reprised in the final scene to encourage a graduation class of which Louise ( Billy and Julie 's daughter ) is a member . The now invisible Billy , who has been granted the chance to return to Earth for one day in order to redeem himself , watches the ceremony and is able to silently motivate the unhappy Louise to join in the song .


The BBC 's Formula One coverage used the ending bass line as a theme tune from 1978 until the BBC 's loss of TV rights to ITV Sport in 1997 , thus making the song highly recognisable in the United Kingdom . On 29 March 2009 the song re-entered the UK Chart at # 94 through downloads , following confirmation from the BBC that it would be reintroduced , the BBC having regained broadcasting rights from ITV . On 20 March 2011 , `` The Chain '' peaked higher at # 81 in the UK chart following a campaign on Facebook to try to get the song to number 1 for the start of the 2011 Formula One season . By November 2014 , the song had been certified Silver by the British Phonographic Industry based on download sales alone , making it one of Fleetwood Mac 's most successful songs in the UK .


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 .


In the small working class town of Clairton , Pennsylvania , in late 1967 , steel workers Mike Vronsky , Steven Pushkov , and Nick Chevotarevich , with the support of their friends and co-workers Stan and Peter `` Axel '' Axelrod and local bar owner and friend John Welsh , prepare for two rites of passage : marriage and military service . Mike is a serious but unassuming leader ; Steven the groom - to - be , pecked - at by his mother ; and Nick the introspective man who loves deer hunting .


`` It 's My Party '' is a pop song recorded by multiple artists since the 1960s . In 1963 , American singer Lesley Gore 's version hit # 1 on the pop and rhythm and blues charts in the United States . It was the first hit single for producer Quincy Jones .


Mohammed Rafi and Ahmed Rushdi are regarded as two of the most influential playback singers in South Asia . The sisters Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhosle , who have mainly worked in Hindi films , are often referred to as two of the best - known and most prolific playback singers in India . In 1991 , Mangeshkar was cited by the Guinness Book of World Records for having sung more than 30,000 solo , duet and chorus - backed song recordings , more than any other singer in the world . However , her name was removed in 1991 and replaced by another Indian playback singer , Dr KJ Yesudas in 1991 . All India Record . In 2011 , Guinness officially acknowledged Lata Mangeshkar 's sister Asha Bhosle as the most recorded artist in music history , surpassing her sister .


Ash Wednesday derives its name from the placing of repentance ashes on the foreheads of participants to either the words `` Repent , and believe in the Gospel '' or the dictum `` Remember that you are dust , and to dust you shall return . '' The ashes may be prepared by burning palm leaves from the previous year 's Palm Sunday celebrations .

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 .

<Ul> <Li> 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 . </Li> <Li> 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 . </Li> <Li> 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 . During her senior year of high school , Kristin became pregnant with her son , Boyd . She was a single mother living in the Baxter home until moving out in the season two finale . 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 . </Li> <Li> 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 .


An unfair labor practice in US labor law refers to certain actions taken by employers or unions that violate the National Labor Relations Act of 1935 ( 49 Stat. 449 ) 29 U.S.C. § 151 -- 169 ( also known as the NLRA and the Wagner Act after NY Senator Robert F. Wagner ) and other legislation . Such acts are investigated by the National Labor Relations Board ( NLRB ) .


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 .

The War of 1812 ( 1812 -- 1815 ) was a conflict fought between the United States , the United Kingdom , and their respective allies . Historians in Britain often see it as a minor theatre of the Napoleonic Wars ; in the United States and Canada , it is seen as a war in its own right .


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 .


Stanley Ipkiss ( Jim Carrey ) is a shy and unlucky bank clerk working at the local Edge City bank . He is frequently ridiculed by everyone around him , except for his Jack Russell Terrier Milo , and his co-worker and best friend Charlie Schumaker ( Richard Jeni ) . Meanwhile , gangster Dorian Tyrell ( Peter Greene ) , owner of the Coco Bongo nightclub , plots to overthrow his boss Niko ( Orestes Matacena ) . One day , Tyrell sends his singer girlfriend Tina Carlyle ( Cameron Diaz ) into Stanley 's bank to record its layout , in preparation to rob the bank .

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 .

At school Malcolm tries to keep his head down and avoid the school bully Spath , but his teachers spot his intelligence and testing reveals his I.Q. to be 165 . When Lois forces him to join the school 's gifted class , Malcolm objects because he does n't want to be bullied for being a `` Krelboyne '' . Frustrated at being ostracized by the regular kids , Malcolm lashes out at Spath , and with some help from his new friend Stevie , fortuitously humiliates Spath and becomes the nerds ' hero .

  While Hal and Lois are away for the weekend , Francis comes home from military school to babysit Malcolm , Reese , and Dewey . Malcolm overhears Lois and Hal 's discussion about Francis and believes he will be allowed to return home permanently if he does a good job , so he convinces the other boys to be on their best behavior . 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 . Seeing the good work Francis has done , they send him back for military school because they realize how much he is `` improving '' there , much to the dismay of the brothers .

That history begins sometime between 124 and 800 CE , with some theories dating the earliest Polynesian settlements to the 10th or even 13th century . Around 1200 , Tahitian explorers found and began settling the area . This began the rise of the Hawaiian civilization . It remained isolated from the rest of the world for another 500 years .

Seven were introduced in the Base Set ( the first ever set of Pokémon cards ) ; Darkness and Metal types appeared when Pokémon Gold and Silver introduced the Dark and Steel types in the video games ; the Dragon type was introduced in the Japanese Dragon Selection set ; and finally , the Fairy type was introduced in the Japanese XY set to correspond to its introduction in the video games .


The western end of the line was simultaneously built from Pittsburgh east along the banks of the Allegheny and Conemaugh rivers to Johnstown . PRR was granted trackage rights over the Philadelphia and Columbia and gained control of the three short lines connecting Lancaster and Harrisburg , instituting an all - rail link between Philadelphia and Pittsburgh by 1854 . In 1857 , the PRR purchased the Main Line of Public Works from the state of Pennsylvania , and abandoned most of its canals and inclined planes . The line was double track from its inception , and by the end of the century a third and fourth track were added . Over the next 50 years , PRR expanded by gaining control of other railroads by stock purchases and 999 - year leases .

The United States Declaration of Independence is the statement adopted by the Second Continental Congress meeting at the Pennsylvania State House ( Independence Hall ) in Philadelphia on July 4 , 1776 , which announced that the thirteen American colonies , then at war with the Kingdom of Great Britain , regarded themselves as thirteen independent sovereign states , no longer under British rule . These states would found a new nation -- the United States of America . John Adams was a leader in pushing for independence , which was passed on July 2 with no opposing vote cast . A committee of five had already drafted the formal declaration , to be ready when Congress voted on independence .

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 .


The City of San Antonio is one of the oldest Spanish colonization of the European settlements in Texas and was , for decades , its largest city .

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 .

Set and filmed in New York City and based on the 1997 book of the same name by Candace Bushnell , the show follows the lives of a group of four women -- three in their mid-thirties and one in her forties -- who , despite their different natures and ever - changing sex lives , remain inseparable and confide in each other . 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 .

  In the aftermath of the Tetch virus incident , Penguin has regained control of Gotham 's underworld and begun issuing `` Licenses of Misconduct ; '' every criminal who possesses one can commit a `` legal crime , '' though not approved by Gordon and Bruce . Selina and a reluctant Tabitha agree to a license . A group of unlicensed criminals led by Merton and Grady Harris decide to defeat Penguin , releasing Jonathan Crane from Arkham to help them produce his father 's fear toxin . Knowing that Gordon can not help , Bruce decides to fight the licenses himself . The night Penguin opens the Iceberg Lounge , the Harrises are captured before they can attack the party but , when Penguin decides to execute them , Ivy turns on him and cuts the power . Merton uses the fear toxin on Penguin before being arrested by Gordon . The toxin makes Penguin see an escaped Nygma . Bruce steals the list of licensed criminals , but is then found on the scene of a robbery by the GCPD . Grady , who escaped from the party , returns to Crane 's house , but discovers Jonathan has adopted a new persona , calling himself `` The Scarecrow '' and spraying Grady with fear gas .

  Gordon frees Bruce . Penguin gives the former 24 hours to apprehend Crane in order to prove the GCPD is still efficient . With no support from the other cops , even Bullock , Gordon walks into Arkham and fights off dozens of inmates influenced by the fear toxin and eventually gets dosed himself . He walks into a hallucination and sees a dying Lee , but successfully overcomes his fear and uses water to nullify the inmates ' reaction to the toxin , forcing Crane to run . Penguin mocks the GCPD and offers the policemen a spot on his payroll . Gordon decides to seek Falcone 's help to defeat Penguin . Meanwhile , Selina and Tabitha meet with a presumably demised Barbara , who asks them to join her arms business , onto which Penguin later forces a license . After being convinced of Barbara 's sincerity , Tabitha and Selina decide to join . Ivy robs a potion store and drinks a combination of them , turning feral . After Bruce almost gets killed during his vigilantism , Fox , who seems to be aware of his activities , provides him with a `` Prototype Suit , '' making him faster and more resilient .

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 .


Felix Baumgartner ( German : ( ˈfeːlɪks ˈbaʊ̯mˌɡaɐ̯tnɐ ) ; born 20 April 1969 ) is an Austrian skydiver , daredevil , and BASE jumper . He is best known for jumping to Earth from a helium balloon in the stratosphere on 14 October 2012 . Doing so , he set world records for skydiving an estimated 39 km ( 24 mi ) , reaching an estimated top speed of 1,357.64 km / h ( 843.6 mph ) , or Mach 1.25 . He became the first person to break the sound barrier without vehicular power relative to the surface on his descent . He broke skydiving records for exit altitude , vertical freefall distance without drogue , and vertical speed without drogue . Though he still holds the two latter records , the first was broken two years later , when on 24 October 2014 , Alan Eustace jumped from 135,890 feet -- or , 41.42 km ( 25.74 mi ) with a drogue .

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 .


Ariana Clarice Richards ( born September 11 , 1979 ) is an American actress and painter . She is best known for her role as Lex Murphy in the blockbuster film Jurassic Park . Richards won several Young Artist Awards for her acting , but since adulthood has focused on her art career .


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 .


The Nurses ' Health Study ( NHS ) , is a series of prospective studies that examine epidemiology and the long - term effects of nutrition , hormones , environment , and nurses ' work - life on health and disease development . The studies are among the largest investigations into risk factors for major chronic diseases ever conducted . The NHS studies have led to many insights on health and well - being , including cancer prevention , cardiovascular disease , and diabetes ( type 2 ) . The studies include clinicians , epidemiologists , and statisticians at the Channing Laboratory , Harvard Medical School , Harvard School of Public Health , and several Harvard - affiliated hospitals , including Brigham and Women 's Hospital , Dana -- Farber Cancer Institute , Children 's Hospital Boston , and Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center .

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 .


Zeebo is Calpurnia 's eldest son . He is one of just four people in First Purchase Church who can read , so he is the vocal leader , leading hymns in the Negro First Purchase Church by `` lining , '' reading a line of verse and having the congregation repeat it . Calpurnia taught Zeebo how to read . He is also the garbage man of Maycomb , and took away the dead rabid dog , Tim Johnson . When a fellow church member , a woman named Lula , tries to make the children feel bad for attending church with his mother , Zeebo welcomes Scout and Jem with open arms . He is kind but very quiet .


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 .
