Covering: The Hidden Assault on Our Civil Rights
It was in 1995 that Yoshino met his first boyfriend . Through the act of covering , Yoshino never brought his boyfriend to work events or talked about his boyfriend in public , when around straight people . Homosexuals see this as `` acting - straight '' as heterosexuals see flamboyant acts as `` acting - gay . '' Acting `` normal '' or `` acting - straight '' is seen as covering . Though you do not doubt the fact you are homosexual , you also do not radically protest for it and show the world that you are gay .

Mass Effect: Andromeda
In EA 's Q3 FY18 Earnings Call on January 30 of 2018 , CEO Andrew Wilson was asked by a research analyst as to why `` unfortunately , some of the nonsports titles have performed below expectations '' ( the analyst did not name any specific game ) . After citing the good performances of other games such as Battlefield 1 and Dragon Age : Inquisition , Wilson responded : `` if you look at Mass Effect ( Andromeda ) , while there was some polarizing sentiment in that franchise , it 's actually performed really well , and player engagement is really strong .

Glory (religion)
To glorify God in Islam is one of the four eternal good deeds . Glorifying God ( Tasbih , Arabic : تسبيح ) is mentioned in many verses in the Quran . For example `` The seven heavens and the earth and all beings therein glorify God . There is not a single thing that does not glorify God with praise , but you do not understand their glorification . God is truly clement and forgiving '' ( Quran 17 : 44 ) . The prophet Muhammad said the eternal good deeds ( Arabic : الباقيات الصالحات ) are to glorify God ( Tasbih , Arabic : تسبيح ) , to praise God ( Hamed , Arabic : حمد ) , to unify God ( Tawhid , Arabic : توحيد ) and to elevate God ( Takbir , Arabic : تكبير ) . These are eternal good deeds due to their devotional and spiritual meanings as the Muslims understand them . For example , you glorify God because God is impeccable and you are in God 's wonderful kingdom ; you praise God because God is sustaining , ruling and loving you and everyone ; you unify God because only God exists and nothing exists beside God ; you elevate God so that nothing would remain or be elevated in your heart beside God . The prophet Muhammad said `` To glorify God , to praise God , to unify God and to elevate God is more pleasing to my heart than everything under the sun . '' The Quran says `` wealth and children are the gloss of the worldly life , while the eternal good deeds are better '' ( 18 : 46 ) . It is a common act of devotion for Muslims to glorify God ( 33 times ) , praise God ( 33 times ) and elevate God ( 33 / 34 times ) after each of the five daily regular prayers following the hadith saying of the prophet Muhammad .

Can't Get You Out of My Head
`` Ca n't Get You Out of My Head '' was jointly written , composed , and produced by Cathy Dennis and Rob Davis . Dennis and Davis had been brought together by British artist manager Simon Fuller , who wanted the duo to come up with a song for British pop group S Club 7 . The song was recorded using Cubase music software , which Davis ran on his Mac computer . Davis began playing an acoustic guitar and ran a 125 beats per minute drum loop , on which Dennis , herself a singer who had enjoyed chart success in the United States , began singing the line `` I just ca n't get you out of my head '' in the key of D minor . After three and a half hours , the demo was recorded and the vocals were laid afterwards . Dennis called their recording setup for the song `` the most primitive set - up you could imagine ! Different producers work in different ways . But it 's good to be reminded you do n't have to be reliant on equipment . A song is about melody and lyrics and being able to take something away in your memory that is going to haunt you . '' She also regarded their production as a `` very natural and fluid process , '' saying : `` We know how hard we work sometimes to write songs and then spend months picking them to pieces , but this was the easiest process , the chemicals were all happy and working together .

Forty-second Amendment of the Constitution of India
On 8 January 2008 , a petition , filed by Sanjiv Agarwal of the NGO Good Governance India Foundation , challenged the validity of Section 2 of the 42nd Amendment , which inserted the word `` socialist '' in the Preamble to the Constitution . In its first hearing of the case , Chief Justice K.G. Balakrishnan , who headed the three - judge bench , observed , `` Why do you take socialism in a narrow sense defined by communists ? In broader sense , it means welfare measures for the citizens . It is a facet of democracy . It has n't got any definite meaning . It gets different meanings in different times . '' Justice Kapadia stated that no political party had , so far , challenged the amendment and everyone had subscribed to it . The court would consider it only when any political party challenged the EC . The petition was withdrawn on 12 July 2010 after the Supreme Court declared the issue to be `` highly academic '' .

Peyton Sawyer
Peyton has been described as beautiful , smart , fiercely independent , and as someone who is often a victim on the series . `` My character is a good girl , but she is also kind of ( sexually ) suggestive . This is definitely not your mom 's drama , '' said Burton . `` She 's very contradictory . Yes , she is a cheerleader , but she also goes home and listens to punk music . She 's into really dark art and probably rips the heads off of Barbie dolls . Basically , she 's a train wreck . '' Burton said the character may be `` a train wreck '' but that she was `` so glad ( that someone was ) putting a girl like her on TV . You do n't have to be one thing . Peyton has made that OK '' .

Assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria
Officials and members of the Archduke 's party discussed what to do next . The archduke 's chamberlain , Baron Rumerskirch , proposed that the couple remain at the Town Hall until troops could be brought into the city to line the streets . Governor - General Oskar Potiorek vetoed this suggestion on the grounds that soldiers coming straight from maneuvers would not have the dress uniforms appropriate for such duties . `` Do you think that Sarajevo is full of assassins ? '' he concluded .

Halloween
There is no consistent rule or view on Halloween amongst those who describe themselves as Neopagans or Wiccans . Some Neopagans do not observe Halloween , but instead observe Samhain on 1 November , some neopagans do enjoy Halloween festivities , stating that one can observe both `` the solemnity of Samhain in addition to the fun of Halloween '' . Some neopagans are opposed to the celebration of Hallowe'en , stating that it `` trivializes Samhain '' , and `` avoid Halloween , because of the interruptions from trick or treaters '' . The Manitoban writes that `` Wiccans do n't officially celebrate Halloween , despite the fact that 31 Oct. will still have a star beside it in any good Wiccan 's day planner . Starting at sundown , Wiccans celebrate a holiday known as Samhain . Samhain actually comes from old Celtic traditions and is not exclusive to Neopagan religions like Wicca . While the traditions of this holiday originate in Celtic countries , modern day Wiccans do n't try to historically replicate Samhain celebrations . Some traditional Samhain rituals are still practised , but at its core , the period is treated as a time to celebrate darkness and the dead -- a possible reason why Samhain can be confused with Halloween celebrations .

Events leading to the attack on Pearl Harbor
I must say that in all my conversations with you ... during the last nine months I have never uttered one word of untruth . This is borne out absolutely by the record . In all my fifty years of public service I have never seen a document that was more crowded with infamous falsehoods and distortions -- infamous falsehoods and distortions on a scale so huge that I never imagined until today that any Government on this planet was capable of uttering them .
PlayStation 3
The Super Slim model of PS3 has received positive reviews . Gaming website Spong praised the new Super Slim 's quietness , stating `` The most noticeable noise comes when the drive seeks a new area of the disc , such as when starting to load a game , and this occurs infrequently . '' They added that the fans are quieter than that of Slim , and went on to praise the new smaller , lighter size . Criticism was placed on the new disc loader , stating : `` The cover can be moved by hand if you wish , there 's also an eject button to do the work for you , but there is no software eject from the triangle button menus in the Xross Media Bar ( XMB ) interface . In addition , you have to close the cover by hand , which can be a bit fiddly if it 's upright , and the PS3 wo n't start reading a disc unless you do ( close the cover ) . '' They also said there is no real drop in retail price .
Mercantilism
Other than Von Hornick , there were no mercantilist writers presenting an overarching scheme for the ideal economy , as Adam Smith would later do for classical economics . Rather , each mercantilist writer tended to focus on a single area of the economy . Only later did non-mercantilist scholars integrate these `` diverse '' ideas into what they called mercantilism . Some scholars thus reject the idea of mercantilism completely , arguing that it gives `` a false unity to disparate events '' . Smith saw the mercantile system as an enormous conspiracy by manufacturers and merchants against consumers , a view that has led some authors , especially Robert E. Ekelund and Robert D. Tollison , to call mercantilism `` a rent - seeking society '' . To a certain extent , mercantilist doctrine itself made a general theory of economics impossible . Mercantilists viewed the economic system as a zero - sum game , in which any gain by one party required a loss by another . Thus , any system of policies that benefited one group would by definition harm the other , and there was no possibility of economics being used to maximize the commonwealth , or common good . Mercantilists ' writings were also generally created to rationalize particular practices rather than as investigations into the best policies .
Stranger Things
IGN gave the score of 8 out of 10 and called the series `` Great '' , saying `` Stranger Things is an easy recommendation , offering viewers an atmospheric and endearing series that is a nostalgic throwback without feeling like a simple copy . '' In a review in the San Francisco Chronicle Dave Wiegand wrote : `` Stranger Things reminds us of a time marked by a kind of no - strings escapism . And as it does so , we find ourselves yearning for it because the Duffer Brothers have made it so irresistibly appealing . There may be other equally great shows to watch this summer , but I guarantee you wo n't have more fun watching any of them than you will watching Stranger Things . '' Joshua Alston of The A.V. Club also reviewed it positively saying , `` Balancing style and substance is always challenging for a series like Stranger Things , but the show is perfectly calibrated . It feels like watching a show produced during the era in which it 's set , but with the craft of today 's prestige television . '' Reviewing for HitFix , Alan Sepinwall said , `` Over the course of the eight hours , the story and characters take on enough life of their own so that the references do n't feel self - indulgent , and so that the series can be appreciated even if you do n't know the plot of E.T. or the title font of Stephen King 's early novels ( a huge influence on the show 's own opening credits ) by heart .

House of Lords
The number of peers to be chosen by a political group reflects the proportion of hereditary peers that belonged to that group ( see current composition below ) in 1999 . When an elected hereditary peer dies , a by - election is held , with a variant of the Alternative Vote system being used . If the recently deceased hereditary peer had been elected by the whole House , then so is his or her replacement ; a hereditary peer elected by a specific political group ( including the non-aligned crossbenchers ) is replaced by a vote of the hereditary peers already elected to the Lords belonging to that political group ( whether elected by that group or by the whole house ) .
House of Lords
The House of Lords Act 1999 allocated 75 of the 92 hereditary peers to the parties based on the proportion of hereditary peers that belonged to that party in 1999 :
House of Lords
The Labour Party included in its 1997 general election Manifesto a commitment to remove the hereditary peerage from the House of Lords . Their subsequent election victory in 1997 under Tony Blair finally heralded the demise of the traditional House of Lords . The Labour Government introduced legislation to expel all hereditary peers from the Upper House as a first step in Lords reform . As a part of a compromise , however , it agreed to permit 92 hereditary peers to remain until the reforms were complete . Thus all but 92 hereditary peers were expelled under the House of Lords Act 1999 ( see below for its provisions ) , making the House of Lords predominantly an appointed house .
House of Lords
In 1999 , the Labour government brought forward the House of Lords Act removing the right of several hundred hereditary peers to sit in the House . The Act provided , as a measure intended to be temporary , that 92 people would continue to sit in the Lords by virtue of hereditary peerages , and this is still in effect .
House of Lords
Unlike the elected House of Commons , all members of the House of Lords ( excluding 90 hereditary peers elected among themselves and two peers who are ex officio members ) are appointed . The membership of the House of Lords is drawn from the peerage and is made up of Lords Spiritual and Lords Temporal . The Lords Spiritual are 26 bishops in the established Church of England . Of the Lords Temporal , the majority are life peers who are appointed by the monarch on the advice of the Prime Minister , or on the advice of the House of Lords Appointments Commission . However , they also include some hereditary peers including four dukes . Membership was once an entitlement of all hereditary peers , other than those in the peerage of Ireland , but under the House of Lords Act 1999 , the right to membership was restricted to 92 hereditary peers . Very few of these are female since most hereditary peerages can only be inherited by men .
House of Lords
While the number of hereditary peers is limited to 92 , and that of Lords spiritual to 26 , there is no maximum limit to the number of life peers who may be members of the House of Lords at any time .
House of Lords
The Labour Party had for most of the 20th century a commitment , based on the party 's historic opposition to class privilege , to abolish the House of Lords , or at least expel the hereditary element . In 1968 , the Labour Government of Harold Wilson attempted to reform the House of Lords by introducing a system under which hereditary peers would be allowed to remain in the House and take part in debate , but would be unable to vote . This plan , however , was defeated in the House of Commons by a coalition of traditionalist Conservatives ( such as Enoch Powell ) , and Labour members who continued to advocate the outright abolition of the Upper House ( such as Michael Foot ) .
Finances of the British royal family
Until 1760 the monarch met all official expenses from hereditary revenues , which included the profits of the Crown Estate ( the royal property portfolio ) . King George III agreed to surrender the hereditary revenues of the Crown in return for the Civil List . Under this arrangement the Crown Estate remained the property of the sovereign , but the hereditary revenues of the crown were placed at the disposal of the House of Commons . The Civil List was paid from public funds and was intended to support the exercise of the monarch 's duties as head of state of the United Kingdom . This arrangement persisted from 1760 until 2012 . In modern times , the Government 's profits from the Crown Estate always significantly exceeded the Civil List . Under the Civil List arrangements the royal family faced criticism for the lack of transparency surrounding Royal finances . The National Audit Office was not entitled to audit the Royal Household .
History of West Africa
In the 10th century , however , Islam was steadily growing in the region , and due to various influences , including internal dynastic struggles coupled with competing foreign interests ( namely Almoravid intervention ) . By the 11th century , Ghana was in decline . It was once thought that the sacking of Koumbi Saleh by Berbers under the Almoravid dynasty in 1076 was the cause . This is no longer accepted . Several alternative explanations are cited . One important reason is the transfer of the gold trade east to the Niger River and the Taghaza Trail , and Ghana 's consequent economic decline . Another reason cited is political instability through rivalry among the different hereditary polities . The empire came to an end in 1230 , when Takrur in northern Senegal took over the capital .

Constitution of the United Kingdom
The United Kingdom is a constitutional monarchy , and succession to the British throne is hereditary . The monarch , or Sovereign , is the Head of State of the United Kingdom and amongst several roles is notably the Commander - in - chief of the British Armed Forces .
Bald eagle
Franklin opposed the creation of the Society because he viewed it , with its hereditary membership , as a noble order unwelcome in the newly independent Republic , contrary to the ideals of Lucius Quinctius Cincinnatus , for whom the Society was named ; his reference to the two kinds of birds is interpreted as a satirical comparison between the Society of the Cincinnati and Cincinnatus .
Finances of the British royal family
The British royal family is financed by the hereditary revenues of the Crown . The British Parliament uses a percentage of the Crown Estate , a part of the Crown 's hereditary revenues belonging to the sovereign that is placed at the disposal of the House of Commons , to meet the costs of the sovereign 's official expenditures . This includes the costs of the upkeep of the various royal residences , staffing , travel and state visits , public engagements , and official entertainment . Other sources of income include revenues from the Duchies of Lancaster and Cornwall , a parliamentary annuity , and income from private investments . The Keeper of the Privy Purse is Head of the Privy Purse and Treasurer 's Office and has overall responsibility for the management of the sovereign 's financial affairs .
Prime Minister of the United Kingdom
Political parties first appeared during the Exclusion Crisis of 1678 -- 1681 . The Whigs , who believed in limited monarchy , wanted to exclude James Stuart from succeeding to the throne because he was a Catholic . The Tories , who believed in the `` Divine Right of Kings '' , defended James ' hereditary claim .
House of Lords
All peers can retire or resign from the chamber ( prior to this only hereditary peers could disclaim their peerages ) . Peers can be disqualified for non-attendance . Peers can be removed for receiving prison sentences of a year or more . House
Lords Proprietor
The title of Lord Proprietor was a position akin to head landlord or overseer of a territory . It was not a title of peerage or nobility , although it was occasionally hereditary . Lords Proprietor oversaw a territory on behalf of a higher sovereign .
Caste system in India
While the notion of hereditary criminals conformed to orientalist stereotypes and the prevailing racial theories in Britain during the colonial era , the social impact of its enforcement was profiling , division and isolation of many communities of Hindus as criminals - by - birth . Religion
Democracy
The term republic has many different meanings , but today often refers to a representative democracy with an elected head of state , such as a president , serving for a limited term , in contrast to states with a hereditary monarch as a head of state , even if these states also are representative democracies with an elected or appointed head of government such as a prime minister .
