Beginning in 1979 , the hotel was leased by the Pakistan International Airlines through its investment arm PIA Investments Ltd . ( `` PIA '' ) , with an option to purchase the building after 20 years . Prince Faisal bin Khalid bin Abdulaziz Al Saud of Saudi Arabia was one of the investors in the 1979 deal . In 1999 , PIA exercised their option and bought the hotel for $36.5 million , after a legal battle with owner Paul Milstein , who claimed it was worth much more . In 2005 , PIA bought out its Saudi partner in a deal that included the prince 's share in Hôtel Scribe in Paris in exchange for $40 million and PIA 's share of the Riyadh Minhal Hotel ( a Holiday Inn located on property owned by the prince ) . PIA has since controlled 99 percent interest in the hotel , while the Saudis have only 1 percent .

It began in 2007 with a crisis in the subprime mortgage market in the United States , and developed into a full - blown international banking crisis with the collapse of the investment bank Lehman Brothers on September 15 , 2008 . Excessive risk - taking by banks such as Lehman Brothers helped to magnify the financial impact globally . Massive bail - outs of financial institutions and other palliative monetary and fiscal policies were employed to prevent a possible collapse of the world financial system . The crisis was nonetheless followed by a global economic downturn , the Great Recession . The European debt crisis , a crisis in the banking system of the European countries using the euro , followed later .

Heat convection occurs when bulk flow of a fluid ( gas or liquid ) carries heat along with the flow of matter in the fluid . The flow of fluid may be forced by external processes , or sometimes ( in gravitational fields ) by buoyancy forces caused when thermal energy expands the fluid ( for example in a fire plume ) , thus influencing its own transfer . The latter process is often called `` natural convection '' . All convective processes also move heat partly by diffusion , as well . Another form of convection is forced convection . In this case the fluid is forced to flow by use of a pump , fan or other mechanical means .

IPv4 address exhaustion is the depletion of the pool of unallocated IPv4 addresses . Because there are fewer than 4.3 billion addresses available , depletion has been anticipated since the late 1980s , when the Internet started to experience dramatic growth . This depletion is one of the reasons for the development and deployment of its successor protocol , IPv6 . Currently IPv4 and IPv6 coexist in the Internet .

The Speaker of the House is the presiding officer of the United States House of Representatives . The office was established in 1789 by Article I , Section 2 of the United States Constitution . The Speaker is the political and parliamentary leader of the House of Representatives , and is simultaneously the House 's presiding officer , de facto leader of the body 's majority party , and the institution 's administrative head . Speakers also perform various other administrative and procedural functions . Given these several roles and responsibilities , the Speaker usually does not personally preside over debates . That duty is instead delegated to members of the House from the majority party . Neither does the Speaker regularly participate in floor debates nor vote .

Prior to ratification of the Articles , presidents of Congress served terms of no specific duration ; their tenure ended when they resigned , or , lacking an official resignation , when Congress selected a successor . When Peyton Randolph , who was elected in September 1774 to preside over the First Continental Congress , was unable to attend the last few days of the session due to poor health , Henry Middleton was elected to replace him . When the Second Continental Congress convened the following May , Randolph was again chosen as president , but he returned to Virginia two weeks later to preside over the House of Burgesses . John Hancock was elected to fill the vacancy , but his position was somewhat ambiguous , because it was not clear if Randolph had resigned or was on a leave of absence . The situation became uncomfortable when Randolph returned to Congress in September 1775 . Some delegates thought Hancock should have stepped down , but he did not ; the matter was resolved only by Randolph 's sudden death that October .

The Cold wave of January 1977 produced the only known trace of snow in the greater Miami area of Florida ever reported , although the city itself did not report any snow ( a trace of snow was documented in Lake Worth ) . It occurred following the passage of a strong cold front , in combination with a high - pressure area situated over the Mississippi River Valley . As a result , cold air moved far to the south across Florida , causing both snow flurries and record low temperatures . Most notably , the weather system brought snow flurries ( seen in the air , but not on the ground ) as far south as Homestead on January 19 . No snow had ever been reported in south Florida before or since . Damage was most significant to agriculture , as major losses occurred to Citrus fruits and tender vegetables . Statewide , agricultural damage from the cold wave totaled to $350 million ( 1977 USD ) , and losses overall totaled to $2 billion ( 1977 USD ) . One fatality occurred due to an automobile accident in Central Florida , which was related to the cold wave .

Hunt 's pedestal design contains elements of classical architecture , including Doric portals , as well as some elements influenced by Aztec architecture . The large mass is fragmented with architectural detail , in order to focus attention on the statue . In form , it is a truncated pyramid , 62 feet ( 19 m ) square at the base and 39.4 feet ( 12.0 m ) at the top . The four sides are identical in appearance . Above the door on each side , there are ten disks upon which Bartholdi proposed to place the coats of arms of the states ( between 1876 and 1889 , there were 38 U.S. states ) , although this was not done . Above that , a balcony was placed on each side , framed by pillars . Bartholdi placed an observation platform near the top of the pedestal , above which the statue itself rises . According to author Louis Auchincloss , the pedestal `` craggily evokes the power of an ancient Europe over which rises the dominating figure of the Statue of Liberty '' . The committee hired former army General Charles Pomeroy Stone to oversee the construction work . Construction on the 15 - foot - deep ( 4.6 m ) foundation began in 1883 , and the pedestal 's cornerstone was laid in 1884 . In Hunt 's original conception , the pedestal was to have been made of solid granite . Financial concerns again forced him to revise his plans ; the final design called for poured concrete walls , up to 20 feet ( 6.1 m ) thick , faced with granite blocks . This Stony Creek granite came from the Beattie Quarry in Branford , Connecticut . The concrete mass was the largest poured to that time .

The term Hiwi ( ( ˈhiːviː ) ) is a German abbreviation of the word Hilfswilliger , meaning `` voluntary assistant '' , or more literally , `` willing helper '' . During World War II , the term Hiwis gained broad popularity in reference to auxiliary forces recruited from the indigenous Soviet populations in the areas acquired by Nazi Germany in Eastern Europe . Hitler reluctantly agreed to allow recruitment of Soviet citizens in the Rear Areas during Operation Barbarossa . In a short period of time , many of them were moved to combat units . In late 1942 , Hiwis comprised 50 percent of the 2nd Panzer Army 's 134 Infantry Division , while the 6th Army at the Battle of Stalingrad was composed of 25 percent Hiwis . By 1944 , their numbers had grown to 600,000 . Both men and women of the Soviet Union were recruited . Veteran Hiwis were practically indistinguishable from the regular German troops , and often served in entire company strengths .

Each shell can contain only a fixed number of electrons : The first shell can hold up to two electrons , the second shell can hold up to eight ( 2 + 6 ) electrons , the third shell can hold up to 18 ( 2 + 6 + 10 ) and so on . The general formula is that the nth shell can in principle hold up to 2 ( n ) electrons . Since electrons are electrically attracted to the nucleus , an atom 's electrons will generally occupy outer shells only if the more inner shells have already been completely filled by other electrons . However , this is not a strict requirement : atoms may have two or even three incomplete outer shells . ( See Madelung rule for more details . ) For an explanation of why electrons exist in these shells see electron configuration .

The agitation against these measures of the Government was led by Lala Lajpat Rai , he called for `` extreme measures '' . The first of the protests was organised in the Chenab Colony , which was supposed to be the most affected by this bill . The first protest saw various organisations submitting memoranda to the government to redress their grievances , but the government failed to pay any heed to these documents . This agitation was followed by a protest at Lyallpur . These agitations led to the formation of secret societies like Anjuman - i - Muhibhan - i - Watan , the founder of which was Ajit Singh , a Jat Sikh who was believed to have the backing of Lajpat Rai . This period saw mass agitations which finally ended in the deportation of both Rai and Ajit Singh .

The Battle of Fort Sumter ( April 12 -- 13 , 1861 ) was the bombardment of Fort Sumter near Charleston , South Carolina by the Confederate States Army , and the return gunfire and subsequent surrender by the United States Army that started the American Civil War . Following declarations of secession by seven Southern states , South Carolina demanded that the U.S. Army abandon its facilities in Charleston Harbor . On December 26 , 1860 , Major Robert Anderson of the U.S. Army surreptitiously moved his small command from the vulnerable Fort Moultrie on Sullivan 's Island to Fort Sumter , a substantial fortress built on an island controlling the entrance of Charleston Harbor . An attempt by U.S. President James Buchanan to reinforce and resupply Anderson using the unarmed merchant ship Star of the West failed when it was fired upon by shore batteries on January 9 , 1861 . South Carolina authorities then seized all Federal property in the Charleston area except for Fort Sumter .

The role of the United States in the Vietnam War began after World War II and escalated into full commitment during the Vietnam War from 1955 to 1975 . The U.S. involvement in South Vietnam stemmed from 20 long years of political and economic action . These had the common incentive of ending the growing communist domination in Vietnam . At the time , French forces , allies of the U.S. , were backed by America -- President Harry S. Truman provided progressively increasing amounts of financial and military assistance to French forces fighting in Vietnam . From the spring of 1950 , their involvement increased from just assisting French troops to providing direct military assistance to the associated states ( Vietnam , Laos , Cambodia ) . Eventually , U.S. missions were carried out at a more constant rate by sending out increasing number of military assistance from the United States . Their main intent was to restrict the Communist domination that was present in the government of Vietnam as it would soon lead to a chain of neighbouring countries adopting the same . This would have resulted in a change in balance of power throughout Southeast Asia . The U.S. foreign policy establishment saw national security interests being disturbed due to the rise of this communist expansion and strived to take any measure to end it . Their actions came to be questioned by other segments of government and society , however , including the US congress. .

With the entrance of the United States into World War I in 1918 , cigarette use increased dramatically among United States military personnel as they were targeted by tobacco companies which touted cigarettes as a way for soldiers to psychologically escape from their current circumstances , boosting overall troop morale . Cigarettes became so integrated into life on the battlefield that these symbols of pleasure and comfort were also used as a form of currency . Although cigarettes had been regarded as a physical and moral hazard by early anti-tobacco movements around this time , by 1918 , previously anti-cigarette organizations and the military began supporting efforts to distribute cigarettes to troops . The New York Times garnered support for these efforts by stating that cigarettes `` lighten ( ed ) the inevitable hardships of war '' , and another popular periodical described cigarettes as the `` last and only solace of the wounded . '' With the rise of World War II , tobacco companies continued to foster this culture of wartime smoking by sending free cigarettes to troops and supporting the inclusion of cigarettes into the soldiers ' rations . Advertisements also encouraged citizens back home to support the troops by sending cigarettes . In 1965 , first during the U.S. Army 's Basic Training Course & later in Pre-Airborne Infantry Training , while being allowed a break from P.T. , or during a long march , it was commonplace for a Drill Sergeant to say `` smoke ' em if you got ' em , do pushups if you do n't '' . Non-smoking soldiers would quickly `` bum '' a cigarette from a friend & they too would soon be smokers . Despite mounting evidence in the 1950s of the adverse health effects of smoking and tobacco use , the military continued to include cigarettes in rations until 1975 .

The company 's board members included aristocrats , members of Parliament and a prominent magazine publisher , who used their political connections to ceaselessly lobby the British government to achieve its aims . The company indulged in many questionable land purchases from Māori , in many cases reselling land it did not own , and launched elaborate , grandiose and sometimes fraudulent advertising campaigns . It vigorously attacked those it perceived as its opponents -- chiefly the British Colonial Office , successive governors of New Zealand , the Church Missionary Society and prominent missionary the Rev. Henry Williams -- and it stridently opposed the Treaty of Waitangi , which was an obstacle to the company obtaining the greatest possible amount of New Zealand land at the cheapest price . The company , in turn , was frequently criticised by the Colonial Office and New Zealand Governors for its `` trickery '' and lies . Missionaries in New Zealand were also critical of the company , fearing its activities would lead to the `` conquest and extermination '' of Maori inhabitants .

Named after the theatre 's first artistic director , Laurence Olivier , this is the main auditorium , modelled on the ancient Greek theatre at Epidaurus ; it has an open stage and a fan - shaped audience seating area for 1100 people . A ' drum revolve ' ( a five - storey revolving stage section ) extends eight metres beneath the stage and is operated by a single staff member . The drum has two rim revolves and two platforms , each of which can carry ten tonnes , facilitating dramatic and fluid scenery changes . Its design ensures that the audience 's view is not blocked from any seat , and that the audience is fully visible to actors from the stage 's centre . Designed in the 1970s and a prototype of current technology , the drum revolve and a multiple ' sky hook ' flying system were initially very controversial and required ten years to commission , but seem to have fulfilled the objective of functionality with high productivity .

Then - president of NBC Entertainment Kevin Reilly played Dwight 's first interviewer . Ed Helms noted in the audio commentary that his mother had trouble watching a string of episodes that included `` The Return '' because she found his character so annoying . Helms recorded the self - recorded cellphone ring on his own personal computer . For the big anger scene , Helms actually bloodied his knuckles while punching the wall , something that took five or six takes . Steve Carell and Rainn Wilson had difficulty with their reuniting scene and had to stage it in several different ways . As part of the episode is set in one of their stores , office supply chain Staples Inc. watched the episode carefully to ensure they were not portrayed negatively ; they were particularly afraid that Dwight 's manner of quitting was disrespectful to the company . At the time `` The Return '' aired , no one was certain Helms would be returning . In early February , NBC confirmed Helms had been hired on as a series regular for the rest of the year , with the actor returning in the season 's nineteenth episode , `` The Negotiation '' .

The Senkaku Islands dispute , or Diaoyu Islands dispute , concerns a territorial dispute over a group of uninhabited islands known as the Senkaku Islands in Japan , the Diaoyu Islands in the People 's Republic of China ( PRC ) , and Tiaoyutai Islands in the Republic of China ( ROC or Taiwan ) . Aside from a 1945 to 1972 period of administration by the United States as part of the Ryukyu Islands , the archipelago has been controlled by Japan since 1895 . According to Lee Seokwoo , the People 's Republic of China ( PRC ) started taking up the question of sovereignty over the islands in the latter half of 1970 when evidence relating to the existence of oil reserves surfaced . Taiwan ( Republic of China ) also claims the islands . The territory is close to key shipping lanes and rich fishing grounds , and there may be oil reserves in the area .
