Land of Nod
The gothic rock band To / Die / For sings about the Land of Nod in the song `` Vale of Tears '' , in the verse `` Sleep well my darling , and leave this vale of tears behind . Land of Nod is a better place '' . English rocker Pete Doherty uses `` East of Eden '' as the title for a song he wrote for his band Babyshambles . The opening lyric to the song states `` I 've been wandering East of Eden '' Musician / cartoonist Sean Hartter refers to `` Nod '' as a place with his `` The Man From Nod '' electronic / live music project . Here `` Nod '' is meant to be a wilderness of jumbled ideas and disjointed notions , the opposite of Eden ... much more like the state of a dreaming mind . The heavy stoner metal band High on Fire included a song called `` Return To Nod '' on their album Death Is This Communion . The darkwave band The Crüxshadows refer to Nod in their song called `` East '' from the 2003 album Ethernaut with the repetitive phrase `` East of Eden '' . The German rock group Unloved uses the phrase `` heading nod '' in the corresponding song from the 2006 album Killersongs as a metaphor for dealing with unpardonable guilt . Nod becomes not a certain land but a state of self - forgiveness ( `` It only remains for me to leave , a ridiculous ' sorry ' on my lips . it only remains for me to live , telling , I did n't mean it '' ) . Serbian rock group Riblja Čorba ( Fish Stew ) mentions east of Eden in the song `` Ostani đubre do kraja '' ( Remain Scum to the End ) : `` You 're not crazy to be ashamed for having exiled me east of Eden , just remain scum to the end '' . Dave Matthews made popular a song written by Daniel Lanois called `` The Maker '' . In it is a reference to the Land of Nod otherwise called East of Eden : `` Brother John , have you seen the homeless daughters standing here with broken wings . I have seen the flaming swords there over east of Eden '' .
Hardy (surname)
Hardy is an English and a French surname of Old French origin . Hardy comes from Old French hardi > French hardi meaning `` bold , courageous '' which comes from Old Frankish hardjan meaning `` to make hard . '' The final - y is also typical of the French proper names ( first names , surnames and place names , with the notable exception Henri , when it is a given name ) . The name could also be an Anglicized form of the Irish name Mac Giolla Deacair meaning ' son of the hard lad ' . Notable persons with that surname include : Contents
French name
First names are chosen by the child 's parents . There are no legal a priori constraints on the choice of names nowadays , but this has not always been the case . The choice of given names , originally limited only by the tradition of naming children after a small number of popular saints , was restricted by law at the end of the 18th century , could be accepted . Much later , actually in 1966 , a new law permitted a limited number of mythological , regional or foreign names , substantives ( Olive , Violette ) , diminutives , and alternative spellings . Only in 1993 were French parents given the freedom to name their child without any constraint whatsoever . However , if the birth registrar thinks that the chosen names ( alone or in association with the last name ) may be detrimental to the child 's interests , or to the right of other families to protect their own family name , the registrar may refer the matter to the local prosecutor , who may choose to refer the matter to the local court . The court may then refuse the chosen names . Such refusals are rare and mostly concern given names that may expose the child to mockery .
Freedom of speech by country
Two years after the Keegstra decision , the Supreme Court of Canada in 1992 decided the case of R v Zundel . The Court struck down a provision in the Criminal Code that prohibited publication of false information or news , stating that it violated section 2 ( b ) of the Charter and could not be justified under s . 1 . Prosecutions
History of evolutionary thought
Proposals that one type of animal , even humans , could descend from other types of animals , are known to go back to the first pre-Socratic Greek philosophers . Anaximander of Miletus ( c. 610 -- 546 BC ) proposed that the first animals lived in water , during a wet phase of the Earth 's past , and that the first land - dwelling ancestors of mankind must have been born in water , and only spent part of their life on land . He also argued that the first human of the form known today must have been the child of a different type of animal ( probably a fish ) , because man needs prolonged nursing to live . In the late nineteenth century , Anaximander was hailed as the `` first Darwinist '' , but this characterization is no longer commonly agreed . Anaximander 's hypothesis could be considered `` evolution '' in a sense , although not a Darwinian one .
Modem
The introduction of microcomputer systems with internal expansion slots made the first software - controllable modems common . Slot connections gave the computer complete access to the modem 's memory or input / output ( I / O ) channels , which allowed software to send commands to the modem , not just data . This led to a series of popular modems for the S - 100 bus and Apple II computers that could directly dial the phone , answer incoming calls , and hang up the phone , the basic requirements of a bulletin board system ( BBS ) . The seminal CBBS was created on an S - 100 machine with a Hayes internal modem , and a number of similar systems followed . The
Singin' in the Rain
In an early draft of the script , the musical number `` Singin ' in the Rain '' was to be sung by Reynolds , O'Connor , and Kelly , emerging from a restaurant after the flop preview of The Dueling Cavalier , to celebrate the idea of changing the film into a musical . Kelly singing `` You Were Meant For Me '' to Reynolds on an empty sound stage was not included in that draft . The number was originally conceived as Kelly singing a medley of other songs to her as they romped around various studio back lot sets . Rita Moreno was originally to have sung the lead in `` I 've Got a Feelin ' You 're Foolin ' '' with other showgirls , but this ended up as part of the `` Beautiful Girl Montage '' without her .
List of films considered the worst
Mac and Me is about a young boy in a wheelchair who meets and befriends an alien who has crash - landed on Earth . The decision to make it was based on the success of E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial ( the title itself , Mac and Me , comes from the working title for E.T. -- E.T. and Me ) , as well as to serve as a marketing vehicle for Coca - Cola and McDonald 's . One scene in the film is a large , impromptu dance - off with the alien ( dressed in a teddy bear costume ) , a football team , Ronald McDonald , and various other people inside and outside of a McDonald 's restaurant . The film 's cast list states `` and Ronald McDonald as Himself '' . Mac and Me has a rating of 0 % on Rotten Tomatoes , and Leonard Maltin referred to it as `` more like a TV commercial than a movie '' . Scott Weinberg of eFilmcritic.com called it `` Quite possibly one of the worst movies of the past 435 years '' and Marjorie Baumgarten of the Austin Chronicle called it a `` shameless E.T. knockoff '' . Filmmaker Morgan Spurlock asserted that `` It 's the worst , worst , worst , worst , worst thing you 'll ever see in your entire life . '' Spurlock also cited the film as the most egregious example of product placement . It was nominated for four Razzie Awards including Worst Picture and Worst Screenplay and won two trophies , Worst Director for Stewart Raffill ( tied with Blake Edwards for Sunset ) and Worst New Star for Ronald McDonald in a small cameo .

I may not know until the film comes out . I do n't know how it works ! If you find out let me know . ''

Columbus ' discovery of what they thought at that time was India , and the constant competition of Portugal and Spain led to a desire for secrecy about every trade route and every colony .

If you miss your target and kill people or destroy other parts of the city , I accept that as a part of war . ''
Republic (Plato)
After Glaucon 's speech , Adeimantus adds that , in this thought experiment , the unjust should not fear any sort of divine judgement in the afterlife , since the very poets who wrote about such judgement also wrote that the gods would grant forgiveness to those humans who made ample religious sacrifice . Adeimantus demonstrates his reason by drawing two detailed portraits , that the unjust man could grow wealthy by injustice , devoting a percentage of this gain to religious sacrifices , thus rendering him innocent in the eyes of the gods .
United States congressional committee
Most standing committees recommend funding levels -- authorizations -- for government operations and for new and existing programs . A few have other functions . For example , the Appropriations Committees recommend appropriations legislation to provide budget authority for federal agencies and programs . The Budget Committees establish aggregate levels for total spending and revenue that serve as guidelines for the work of the authorizing and appropriating panels .
Education in ancient Rome
The situation of the Greeks was ideal for the foundation of literary education as they were the possessors of the great works of Homer , Hesiod and the Lyric poets of Archaic Greece . The absence of a literary method of education from Roman life was due to the fact that Rome was bereft of any national literature . The military arts were all that Rome could afford to spend time studying . When not waging war , the Romans devoted what time remained to agriculture . The concern of Rome was that of survival , whether through defense or dominion . It was not until the appearance of Ennius ( 239 -- 169 BC ) , the father of Roman poetry , that any sort of national literature surfaced .
