Appointment and confirmation to the Supreme Court of the United States
The Committee 's practice of personally interviewing nominees is relatively recent , beginning with Harlan Fiske Stone in 1925 . Some western senators were concerned with his links to Wall Street and expressed their opposition when Stone was nominated . Stone proposed what was then the novelty of appearing before the Judiciary Committee to answer questions ; his testimony helped secure a confirmation vote with very little opposition . The second nominee to appear before the Committee was Felix Frankfurter , who only addressed ( at the Committee 's request ) what he considered to be slanderous allegations against him . The modern practice of the Committee questioning nominees on their judicial views began with the nomination of John Marshall Harlan II in 1955 ; the nomination came shortly after the Court handed down the landmark Brown v. Board of Education decision , and several Southern senators attempted to block Harlan 's confirmation , hence the decision to testify .
Demographics of Mexico
The Mexican government projects that the Mexican population will grow to about 123 million by 2042 and then start declining slowly . Assumptions include fertility stabilizing at 1.85 children per woman and continued high net emigration ( gently decreasing from 583,000 in 2005 to 393,000 in 2050 ) .

He is also credited as the creator of the soap opera genre , and using radio and television as media driven by advertising . Lasker took time off from business to help the presidential campaign of Republican Warren Harding in 1920 , using high - powered advertising techniques that helped produce a massive landslide .
Pluto (mythology)
The name Plouton does not appear in Greek literature of the Archaic period . In Hesiod 's Theogony , the six children of Cronus and Rhea are Zeus , Hera , Poseidon , Hades , Demeter , and Hestia . The male children divide the world into three realms . Hades takes Persephone by force from her mother Demeter , with the consent of Zeus . Ploutos , `` Wealth , '' appears in the Theogony as the child of Demeter and Iasion : `` fine Plutus , who goes upon the whole earth and the broad back of the sea , and whoever meets him and comes into his hands , that man he makes rich , and he bestows much wealth upon him . '' The union of Demeter and Iasion , described also in the Odyssey , took place in a fallow field that had been ploughed three times , in what seems to be a reference to a ritual copulation or sympathetic magic to ensure the earth 's fertility . `` The resemblance of the name Ploutos to Plouton ... , '' it has been noted , `` can not be accidental . Plouton is lord of the dead , but as Persephone 's husband he has serious claims to the powers of fertility . '' Demeter 's son Plutus merges in the narrative tradition with her son - in - law Pluto , redefining the implacable chariot - driver Hades whose horses trample the flowering earth .

The link between her oversight of fertility and the birthday tradition of candles on cakes , however , has not been established .
Battle of Towton
The tired Lancastrians flung off their helmets and armour to run faster . Without such protection , they were much more vulnerable to the attacks of the Yorkists . Norfolk 's troops were much fresher and faster . Fleeing across what would later become known as Bloody Meadow , many Lancastrians were cut down from behind or were slain after they had surrendered . Before the battle , both sides had issued the order to give no quarter and the Yorkists were in no mood to spare anyone after the long , gruelling fight . A number of Lancastrians , such as Trollope , also had substantial bounties on their heads . Gregory 's chronicle stated 42 knights were killed after they were taken prisoner .

Deforestation in the United States
The biggest issue thought to be facing deforestation in the United States is illegal logging in forests although facts prove otherwise from habitat and forest cover loss annually to catastrophic fire . More than 83 million acres have been lost to wildfire from 2005 to date ( source : U.S. National Interagency Fire Center , https://www.nifc.gov/fireInfo/fireInfo_statistics.html ) The United States Forest Service states that illegal logging is the biggest problem with deforestation because it is nearly impossible to monitor and stop . It goes on throughout the U.S. and other countries and often happens when companies disregard their permits and go beyond what they are allowed to harvest . The Forest Service and EPA work together to make sure that the permits for logging companies in the United States are granted in such a way that the forests are kept healthy and sustainable , and illegal logging reduces the chances that forests will be kept this way .
Obesity in the United States
Some of the consequences in childhood and adolescent obesity are psychosocial . Overweight children and overweight adolescents are targeted for social discrimination , and thus , they begin to stress - eat . The psychological stress that a child or adolescent can endure from social stigma can cause low self - esteem which can hinder a child 's after school social and athletic capability , especially in plump teenage girls , and could continue into adulthood . Teenage females are often overweight or obese by age 12 , as , after puberty , teenage girls gain about 15 pounds , specifically in the arms , legs , and chest / midsection .
Lobbying in the United States
Studies of lobbying by academics in previous decades painted a picture of lobbying being an ineffectual activity , although many of these studies were done before lobbying became prevalent in American politics . A study in 1963 by Bauer , Pool , & Dexter suggested lobbyists were mostly `` impotent '' in exerting influence . Studies in the early 1990s suggested that lobbying exerted influence only `` marginally '' , although it suggested that when lobbying activity did achieve political impacts , that the results of the political choices were sufficient to justify the expenditure on lobbying . A fairly recent study in 2009 is that Washington lobbies are `` far less influential than political rhetoric suggests '' , and that most lobbying campaigns do not change any views and that there was a strong entrenchment of the status quo . But it depends on what is seen as `` effective '' , since many lobbying battles result in a stalemate , since powerful interests battle , and in many cases , merely keeping the `` status quo '' could be seen as a victory of sorts . What happens often is that varying coalitions find themselves in `` diametrical opposition to each other '' and that stalemates result .
Desert
Traditional desert farming systems have long been established in North Africa , irrigation being the key to success in an area where water stress is a limiting factor to growth . Techniques that can be used include drip irrigation , the use of organic residues or animal manures as fertilisers and other traditional agricultural management practises . Once fertility has been built up , further crop production preserves the soil from destruction by wind and other forms of erosion . It has been found that plant growth - promoting bacteria play a role in increasing the resistance of plants to stress conditions and these rhizobacterial suspensions could be inoculated into the soil in the vicinity of the plants . A study of these microbes found that desert farming hampers desertification by establishing islands of fertility allowing farmers to achieve increased yields despite the adverse environmental conditions . A field trial in the Sonoran Desert which exposed the roots of different species of tree to rhizobacteria and the nitrogen fixing bacterium Azospirillum brasilense with the aim of restoring degraded lands was only partially successful .

Munich Agreement
On 28 September at 10 : 00am , four hours before the deadline and with no agreement to Hitler 's demand by Czechoslovakia , the British ambassador to Italy , Lord Perth , called Italy 's Foreign Minister Galeazzo Ciano to request an urgent meeting . Perth informed Ciano that Chamberlain had instructed him to request that Mussolini enter the negotiations and urge Hitler to delay the ultimatum . At 11 : 00am , Ciano met Mussolini and informed him of Chamberlain 's proposition ; Mussolini agreed with it and responded by telephoning Italy 's ambassador to Germany and told him `` Go to the Fuhrer at once , and tell him that whatever happens , I will be at his side , but that I request a twenty - four hour delay before hostilities begin . In the meantime , I will study what can be done to solve the problem . '' Hitler received Mussolini 's message while in discussions with the French ambassador . Hitler told the ambassador `` My good friend , Benito Mussolini , has asked me to delay for twenty - four hours the marching orders of the German army , and I agreed . Of course , this was no concession , as the invasion date was set for 1 October 1938 . '' Upon speaking with Chamberlain , Lord Perth gave Chamberlain 's thanks to Mussolini as well as Chamberlain 's request that Mussolini attend a four - power conference of Britain , France , Germany , and Italy in Munich on 29 September to settle the Sudeten problem prior to the deadline of 2 : 00pm . Mussolini agreed . Hitler 's only request was to make sure that Mussolini be involved in the negotiations at the conference . When United States President Franklin D. Roosevelt learned the conference had been scheduled , he telegraphed Chamberlain , `` Good man '' .
Captive killer whales
Most captive male killer whales , and some females , have a dorsal fin that is partially or completely collapsed to one side . Several hypotheses exist as to why this happens . A dorsal fin is held erect by collagen , which normally hardens in late adolescence .
Three wise monkeys
In Chinese , a similar phrase exists in the late Analects of Confucius from 2nd to 4th century B.C. : `` Look not at what is contrary to propriety ; listen not to what is contrary to propriety ; speak not what is contrary to propriety ; make no movement which is contrary to propriety '' ( 非禮 勿 視 , 非禮 勿 聽 , 非禮 勿 言 , 非禮 勿 動 ) . It may be that this phrase was shortened and simplified after it was brought into Japan .

Middle Ages
The Open - field system of agriculture was commonly practiced in most of Europe , especially in `` northwestern and central Europe . '' Open - field agricultural communities had three basic characteristics : individual peasant holdings in the form of strips of land were scattered among the different fields belonging to the manor ; crops were rotated from year to year to preserve soil fertility ; and common land was used for grazing livestock and other purposes .

Elena shouts at him that she loves him . Stefan , hearing that , gets back to her and kisses her . The two of them get into the house and sleep together for the first time .
Easter Bunny
The hare was a popular motif in medieval church art . In ancient times , it was widely believed ( as by Pliny , Plutarch , Philostratus , and Aelian ) that the hare was a hermaphrodite . The idea that a hare could reproduce without loss of virginity led to an association with the Virgin Mary , with hares sometimes occurring in illuminated manuscripts and Northern European paintings of the Virgin and Christ Child . It may also have been associated with the Holy Trinity , as in the three hares motif . Eggs , like rabbits and hares , are fertility symbols of antiquity . Since birds lay eggs and rabbits and hares give birth to large litters in the early spring , these became symbols of the rising fertility of the earth at the Vernal Equinox .
Semen
Semen quality is a measure of the ability of semen to accomplish fertilization . Thus , it is a measure of fertility in a man . It is the sperm in the semen that is the fertile component , and therefore semen quality involves both sperm quantity and sperm quality .
Meanwhile (Futurama)
Sean Gardert , writing for Paste , was relatively more critical and summarized that , `` Not to say that ' Meanwhile ' was a bad episode , as it was truly great , an epic 22 minutes that stood up to anything the show 's done before . But after toeing up to that line of doing something truly impressive and revolutionary for the show , they backed away again . I was disappointed , to say the least , but I still look forward to catching this episode as a rerun , and have already written fanfiction in my head as to what would happen were Fry and Leela allowed to return to the past with all of their memories still intact . ''
History of the Cleveland Browns
By the end of 1992 , Kosar 's physical decline had long been apparent to Belichick , which left the coach with a difficult choice . Kosar was Cleveland 's most popular athlete , a hometown boy who had forgone big money and a bigger profile to lead a struggling team back to the top . While he recognized it would be an unpopular decision , Belichick wanted to bench Kosar , and in 1992 the team picked up a potential replacement in Vinny Testaverde from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers . Belichick named Kosar the starter before the 1993 season , but in the third game against the Raiders , Belichick pulled Kosar after he threw his third interception of the night . Taking over with Los Angeles ahead 13 -- 0 , Testaverde led two touchdown drives to win the game . Two weeks later , Belichick named Testaverde the starter . On the verge of tears after a loss to the Dolphins , Kosar said he was disappointed with the decision and felt he had done what he could with what was at his disposal .
