For 23 years , in the longest continuous conflict and greatest naval war of antiquity , the two powers struggled for supremacy , primarily on the Mediterranean island of Sicily and its surrounding waters , and also in North Africa . </P> <P> The war began in 264 BC with the Roman conquest of the Carthaginian - controlled city of Messina in Sicily , granting Rome a military foothold on the island . The Romans built up a navy to challenge Carthage , the greatest naval power in the Mediterranean , for control over the waters around Sicily . In naval battles and storms , 700 Roman and 500 Carthaginian quinqueremes were lost , along with hundreds of thousands of lives . Command of the sea was won and lost by both sides repeatedly . A Roman invasion of Carthaginian Africa was destroyed in battle and the Roman consul Marcus Atilius Regulus was captured by the Carthaginians in 255 . In 23 years , the Romans slowly conquered Sicily and drove the Carthaginians to the west end of the island . </P> <P> After both sides had been brought to a state of near exhaustion , the Romans mobilized their citizenry 's private wealth and created a new fleet under consul Gaius Lutatius Catulus . The Carthaginian fleet was destroyed at the Aegates Islands in 241 , forcing the cut - off Carthaginian troops on Sicily to give up . A peace treaty was signed in which Carthage was made to pay a heavy indemnity and Rome ejected Carthage from Sicily , annexing the island as a Roman province . </P> <P> The war was followed by a failed revolt against the Carthaginian Empire . The Romans exploited Carthage 's weakness to seize the Carthaginian possessions of Sardinia and Corsica in violation of the peace treaty . The unresolved strategic competition between Rome and Carthage would lead to the eruption of the Second Punic War in 218 BC . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Name </Li> <Li> 2 Background <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Rome </Li> <Li> 2.2 Carthage </Li> <Li> 2.3 North African peoples </Li> <Li> 2.4 Greek colonists </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Beginning </Li> <Li> 4 Roman landing and advance to Syracuse </Li> <Li> 5 Carthage prepares for war </Li> <Li> 6 Battle of Agrigentum </Li> <Li> 7 Rome builds a fleet <Ul> <Li> 7.1 Origin of Roman design </Li> <Li> 7.2 The corvus </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 8 Battle of Mylae </Li> <Li> 9 Hamilcar 's counter-attack </Li> <Li> 10 Battles in Sardinia and Corsica </Li> <Li> 11 Continued Roman advance </Li> <Li> 12 Invasion of Africa <Ul> <Li> 12.1 Battle of Cape Ecnomus </Li> <Li> 12.2 Regulus 's raid </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 13 Carthage 's respite </Li> <Li> 14 Renewed Roman offensive <Ul> <Li> 14.1 Initial failure </Li> <Li> 14.2 Northern advance </Li> <Li> 14.3 Northwestern expedition </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 15 Conclusion <Ul> <Li> 15.1 Stalemate in Sicily </Li> <Li> 15.2 Battle of the Aegates Islands </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 16 Role of naval warfare </Li> <Li> 17 Aftermath <Ul> <Li> 17.1 Casualties </Li> <Li> 17.2 Peace terms </Li> <Li> 17.3 Political results </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 18 Notable leaders </Li> <Li> 19 Chronology </Li> <Li> 20 References <Ul> <Li> 20.1 Citations </Li> <Li> 20.2 Sources </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 21 Further reading </Li> <Li> 22 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Name ( edit ) </H2> <P> The series of wars between Rome and Carthage took the name `` Punic '' from the Latin adjective for Carthaginian , Punicus .

California ( 283 U.S. 359 ) -- The Supreme Court found that a State statute prohibiting the display of a `` red flag '' as a sign of opposition to organized government unconstitutionally infringed on the defendant 's First Amendment rights . Stromberg represented the Court 's first declaration that `` symbolic speech '' was protected by the First Amendment . </Li> <Li> 1942 Federal Flag Code ( 36 U.S.C. 171 et seq . ) -- On June 22 , 1942 , 32nd President Franklin D. Roosevelt approved the Federal Flag Code , providing for uniform guidelines for the display and respect shown to the flag . The Flag Code does not prescribe any penalties for non-compliance nor does it include any enforcement provisions , rather it functions simply as a guide for voluntary civilian compliance . </Li> <Li> 1943 West Virginia Board of Education v. Barnette ( 319 U.S. 624 ) -- The Supreme Court held that public school children could not be compelled to salute the U.S. flag . In a now famous passage , Justice Robert Jackson highlighted the importance of freedom of expression under the First Amendment : Freedom to differ is not limited to things that do not matter much . That would be a mere shadow of freedom . The test of its substance is the right to differ as to things that touch the heart of the existing order . If there is any fixed star in our constitutional constellation it is that no official , high or petty , can prescribe what shall be orthodox in politics , nationalism , religion or other matters of opinion . </Li> <Li> 1945 The flag that flew over Pearl Harbor naval base in Hawaii on Sunday , December 7 , 1941 , is flown over the White House on August 14 , 1945 , `` V-J Day '' when the Japanese accepted surrender terms . </Li> <Li> 1949 August 3 -- 34th President Harry Truman signs bill requesting the President call for a Flag Day ( June 14th ) observance each year by proclamation . </Li> <Li> 1954 By act of Congress , the words `` Under God '' are inserted into the Pledge of Allegiance </Li> <Li> 1959 Flag with 49 stars ( Alaska ) </Li> <Li> 1960 Flag with 50 stars ( Hawaii ) </Li> <Li> 1963 American Flag placed on top of Mount Everest in Himalayas Mountains in Nepal ( tallest in the world ) , by Barry Bishop . </Li> <Li> 1968 Adoption of Federal Flag Desecration Law ( 18 U.S.C. 700 et seq . ) -- Congress approved the first federal flag desecration law in the wake of a highly publicized Central Park flag burning incident in New York City in protest of the Vietnam War . The federal law made it illegal to `` knowingly '' cast `` contempt '' upon `` any flag of the United States by publicly mutilating , defacing , defiling , burning or trampling upon it . '' The law defined flag in an expansive manner similar to most States . </Li> <Li> 1969 July 20 -- Astronauts Neil Armstrong with Edwin `` Buzz '' Aldrin of Apollo 11 places the American flag on the Moon at `` Tranquillity Base '' . </Li> <Li> 1969 Street v. New York ( 394 U.S. 576 ) -- The Supreme Court held that New York State could not convict a person based on his verbal remarks disparaging the flag . Street was arrested after he learned of the shooting of civil rights leader James Meredith and reacted by burning his own flag and exclaiming to a small crowd that if the government could allow Meredith to be killed , `` we do n't need no damn flag . '' The Court avoided deciding whether flag burning was protected by the First Amendment , and instead overturned the conviction based on Street 's oral remarks . In Street , the Court found there was not a sufficient governmental interest to warrant regulating verbal criticism of the flag . </Li> <Li> 1972 Smith v. Goguen ( 415 U.S. 94 ) -- The Supreme Court held that Massachusetts could not prosecute a person for wearing a small cloth replica of the flag on the seat of his pants based on a State law making it a crime to publicly treat the flag of the United States with `` contempt '' . The Massachusetts statute was held to be unconstitutionally `` void for vagueness . '' </Li> <Li> 1974 Spence v. Washington ( 418 U.S. 405 ) -- The Supreme Court held that the State of Washington could not convict a person for attaching removable tape in the form of a peace sign to a flag . The defendant had attached the tape to his flag and draped it outside of his window in protest of the 1970 U.S. invasion of Cambodia and the Kent State killings . The Court again found under the First Amendment there was not a sufficient governmental interest to justify regulating this form of symbolic speech . Although not a flag burning case , this represented the first time the Court had clearly stated that protest involving the physical use of the flag should be seen as a form of protected expression under the First Amendment . </Li> <Li> 1970 --

chemistry by sorting the chemical elements of the periodic table of the elements in a logical order based on their physics . He published first the Long Form periodic table or Modern periodic table which is used till date . </P> <P> Moseley 's law advanced atomic physics , nuclear physics and quantum physics by providing the first experimental evidence in favour of Niels Bohr 's theory , aside from the hydrogen atom spectrum which the Bohr theory was designed to reproduce . That theory refined Ernest Rutherford 's and Antonius van den Broek 's model , which proposed that the atom contains in its nucleus a number of positive nuclear charges that is equal to its ( atomic ) number in the periodic table . This remains the accepted model today . </P> <P> When World War I broke out in Western Europe , Moseley left his research work at the University of Oxford behind to volunteer for the Royal Engineers of the British Army . Moseley was assigned to the force of British Empire soldiers that invaded the region of Gallipoli , Turkey , in April 1915 , as a telecommunications officer . Moseley was shot and killed during the Battle of Gallipoli on 10 August 1915 , at the age of 27 . Experts have speculated that Moseley could have been awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1916 , had he not been killed . As a consequence , the British government instituted new policies for eligibility for combat duty . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Biography </Li> <Li> 2 Scientific work <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Contribution to understanding of the atom </Li> <Li> 2.2 Use of X-ray spectrometer </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Death and aftermath </Li> <Li> 4 Notes </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> <Li> 6 Further reading </Li> <Li> 7 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Biography ( edit ) </H2> <P> Henry G.J. Moseley , known to his friends as Harry , was born in Weymouth in Dorset in 1887 . His father Henry Nottidge Moseley ( 1844 -- 91 ) , who died when Henry Moseley was quite young , was a biologist and also a professor of anatomy and physiology at the University of Oxford , who had been a member of the Challenger Expedition . Moseley 's mother was Amabel Gwyn Jeffreys Moseley , the daughter of the Welsh biologist and conchologist John Gwyn Jeffreys . </P> <P> Henry Moseley had been a very promising schoolboy at Summer Fields School ( where one of the four ' leagues ' is named after him ) , and he was awarded a King 's scholarship to attend Eton College . In 1906 he won the chemistry and physics prizes at Eton . In 1906 , Moseley entered Trinity College of the University of Oxford , where he earned his bachelor 's degree . Immediately after graduation from Oxford in 1910 , Moseley became a demonstrator in physics at the University of Manchester under the supervision of Sir Ernest Rutherford . During Moseley 's first year at Manchester , he had a teaching load as a graduate teaching assistant , but following that first year , he was reassigned from his teaching duties to work as a graduate research assistant . He declined a fellowship offered by Rutherford , preferring to move back to Oxford , in November 1913 , where he was given laboratory facilities but no support . </P> <H2> Scientific work ( edit ) </H2> <P> Experimenting with the energy of β - particles in 1912 , Moseley showed that high potentials were attainable from a radioactive source of radium , thereby inventing the first atomic battery , though he was unable to produce the 1MeV necessary to stop the particles . </P> <P> In 1913 , Moseley observed and measured the X-ray spectra of various chemical elements ( mostly metals ) that were found by the method of diffraction through crystals . This was a pioneering use of the method of X-ray spectroscopy in physics , using Bragg 's diffraction law to determine the X-ray wavelengths . Moseley discovered a systematic mathematical relationship between the wavelengths of the X-rays produced and the atomic numbers of the metals that were used as the targets in X-ray tubes . This has become known as Moseley 's law . </P> <P> Before Moseley 's discovery , the atomic numbers ( or elemental number ) of an element had been thought of as a semi-arbitrary sequential number , based on the sequence of atomic masses , but modified somewhat where chemists found this modification to be desirable , such as by the Russian chemist , Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleev . In his invention of the Periodic Table of the Elements , Mendeleev had interchanged the orders of a few pairs of elements in order to put them in more appropriate places in this table of the elements . For example , the metals cobalt and nickel had been assigned the atomic numbers 27 and 28 , respectively , based on their known chemical and physical properties , even though they have nearly the same atomic masses . In fact , the atomic mass of cobalt is slightly larger than that of nickel , which would have placed them in backwards order if they had been placed in the Periodic Table blindly according to atomic mass . Moseley 's experiments in X-ray spectroscopy showed directly from their physics that cobalt and nickel have the different atomic numbers , 27 and 28 , and that they are placed in the Periodic Table correctly by Moseley 's objective measurements of their atomic numbers . Hence , Moseley 's discovery demonstrated that the atomic numbers of elements are not just rather arbitrary numbers based on chemistry and the intuition of chemists , but rather , they have a firm experimental basis from the physics of their X-ray spectra . </P> <P> In addition , Moseley showed that there were gaps in the atomic number sequence at numbers 43 , 61 , 72 , and

Its animation was mostly done by South Korean studios JM Animation , DR Movie , and MOI Animation . According to Konietzko , the series was conceived in early 2001 when he took an old sketch of a balding , middle - aged man and imagined the man as a child . He drew the character herding bison in the sky and showed the sketch to DiMartino , who was watching a documentary about explorers trapped at the South Pole . Konietzko described their early development of the concept ; `` There 's an air guy along with these water people trapped in a snowy wasteland ... and maybe some fire people are pressing down on them '' . The co-creators successfully pitched the idea to Nickelodeon vice-president and executive producer Eric Coleman two weeks later . </P> <P> The series was introduced to the public in a teaser reel at Comic - Con 2004 , and premiered on February 21 , 2005 . </P> <P> In an interview , Konietzko said : `` Mike and I were really interested in other epic ' Legends & Lore ' properties , like Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings , but we knew that we wanted to take a different approach to that type of genre . Our love for Japanese anime , Hong Kong action and kung fu cinema , yoga , and Eastern philosophies led us to the initial inspiration for Avatar : The Last Airbender . '' </P> <H3> Influences </H3> Fictional locations featured in the show are based on the architecture and designs of real locations . For example , the creators modeled the city of Ba Sing Se off of the Forbidden City in China . <P> The series is notable for borrowing extensively from East Asian art and mythology for its universe . Its creators employed cultural consultants Edwin Zane and calligrapher Siu - Leung Lee to help determine its art direction and settings . Its character designs are influenced by Chinese art and history , Hinduism , Taoism and Buddhism , and Yoga . Jeremy Zuckerman and Benjamin Wynn composed

Ummah - wikipedia <H1> Ummah </H1> Jump to : navigation , search Not to be confused with Umrah . <P> Ummah ( Arabic : أمة ‎ ) is an Arabic word meaning `` community '' . It is distinguished from Sha'b ( Arabic : شعب ‎ ) which means a nation with common ancestry or geography . Thus , it can be said to be a supra - national community with a common history . </P> <P> It is a synonym for ummat al - Islamiyah ( Arabic : الأمة الإسلامية ‎ ) ( the Islamic Community ) , and it is commonly used to mean the collective community of Islamic peoples . In the Quran the ummah typically refers to a single group that shares common religious beliefs , specifically those that are the objects of a divine plan of salvation . In the context of Pan-Islamism and politics , the word Ummah can be used to mean the concept of a Commonwealth of the Believers ( أمة المؤمنين ummat al - mu'minīn ) . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 General usage </Li> <Li> 2 Islamic usage and origin </Li> <Li> 3 Emergence of the Ummah </Li> <Li> 4 Usage of Ummah in the Qur'an </Li> <Li> 5 Mecca </Li> <Li> 6 Medina <Ul> <Li> 6.1 Constitution of Medina </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 7 Back to Mecca </Li> <Li> 8 See also </Li> <Li> 9 References </Li> <Li> 10 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> General usage ( edit ) </H2> <P> The word Ummah ( pl . umam ) means Nation in Arabic . For example the Arabic term for the United Nations in Arabic is الأمم المتحدة Al - Umam Al - Mutahedah , and the term الأمة العربية Al - Ummah Al - Arabeyah is used to refer to `` The Arabic Nation '' . </P> <P> The Word Ummah differs from the concept of a country or people . In it is greater context it is used to describe a larger group of people . For example , in Arabic the world شعب Sha'ab ( `` people '' ) would be used to describe the citizens of Turkey . However , the term Ummah is used to describe the Turkic Nation as a whole , which includes Turkey , Turkmenistan , Kazakhstan , Azerbaijan , and other countries and ethnic groups in Central Asia . </P> <H2> Islamic usage and Origin ( edit ) </H2> <P> The phrase Ummah Wāhidah in the Quran ( أمة واحدة , `` One Nation '' ) refers to all of the Islamic world as it existed at the time . The Quran says : `` You ( Muslims ) are the best nation brought out for Mankind , commanding what is righteous ( معروف Ma'rūf , lit . `` recognized ( as good ) '' ) and forbidding what is wrong ( منكر Munkar , lit . `` recognized ( as evil ) '' ) '' ( 3 : 110 ) . </P> <P> The usage is further clarified by the Constitution of Medina , an early document said to have been negotiated by Muhammad in CE 622 with the leading clans of Medina , explicitly refers to Jewish , Christians and pagan citizens of Medina as members of the Ummah . </P> <H2> Emergence of the ummah ( edit ) </H2> <P> At the time of Muhammad , before the conception of the ummah , Arab communities were typically governed by kinship . In other words , the political ideology of the Arabs centered around tribal affiliations and blood - relational ties . In the midst of a tribal society , the religion of Islam emerged and along with it the concept of the ummah . The ummah emerged according to the idea that a messenger or prophet has been sent to a community . But unlike earlier messengers who had been sent to various communities in the past ( as can be found among the Prophets in the Old Testament ) , Muhammad had been given the task to develop a universal ummah and not only for the Arabs . Muhammad 's purpose as messenger to them was to transmit a divine message , and lead the Islamic community to salvation . Since Muhammad is the messenger for the ummah , it indicates there is a divine message , which further implies that God is directing the life affairs of the ummah . Accordingly , the purpose of the ummah was to be based on religion , following the commands of God , rather than kinship . </P> <H2> Usage of ummah in the Qur'an ( edit ) </H2> <Table> <Tr> <Th> ( hide ) Part of a series on : Islamism </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Fundamentals ( show ) <Ul> <Li> Islam </Li> <Li> History </Li> <Li> Culture </Li> <Li> Economics </Li> <Li> Politics </Li> <Li> Secularism </Li> </Ul> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Ideology ( show ) <Ul> <Li> Islamism </Li> <Li> Qutbism </Li> <Li> Salafism </Li> <Li> Shia Islamism </Li> </Ul> Islamic fundamentalism </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Concepts ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> Caliphate </Li> <Li> Islamic democracy </Li> <Li> Islamic socialism </Li> <Li> Islamic state <Ul> <Li> Islamic monarchy </Li> <Li> Islamic republic </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> Islamization ( of knowledge ) </Li> <Li> Jihad </Li> <Li> Pan-Islamism </Li> <Li> Post-Islamism </Li> <Li> Sharia </Li> <Li> Shura </Li> <Li> Slavery </Li> <Li> Two - nation theory </Li> <Li> Ummah </Li> </Ul> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Influences ( show ) <Ul> <Li> Anti-imperialism </Li> <Li> Anti-Zionism </Li> <Li> Islamic Golden Age </Li> <Li> Islamic revival </Li> </Ul> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Movements ( show ) Scholastic <Ul> <Li> Ahl - i Hadith </Li> <Li> Deobandi </Li> <Li> Madkhalism </Li> <Li> Sahwa movement </Li> <Li> Wahhabism </Li> </Ul> <P> Political </P> <Ul> <Li> Hizb ut - Tahrir </Li> <Li> Iranian Revolution </Li> <Li> Jamaat - e-Islami </Li> <Li> Millî Görüş </Li> <Li> Muslim Brotherhood </Li> <Li> List of Islamic political parties </Li> </Ul> <P> Militant </P> <Ul> <Li>

Giorno recognized his power as being a Stand power similar to his Gold Experience , a Stand that can give life to inanimate objects .

Around 300 species are recognised and the order is grouped within the class Cephalopoda with squids , cuttlefish and nautiloids . Like other cephalopods , the octopus is bilaterally symmetric with two eyes and a beak , with its mouth at the centre point of the arms ( which are sometimes mistakenly called `` tentacles '' ) . The soft body can rapidly alter its shape , enabling octopuses to squeeze through small gaps . They trail their eight arms behind them as they swim . The siphon is used both for respiration and for locomotion , by expelling a jet of water . Octopuses have a complex nervous system and excellent sight , and are among the most intelligent and behaviourally diverse of all invertebrates . </P> <P> Octopuses inhabit various regions of the ocean , including coral reefs , pelagic waters , and the seabed ; some live in the intertidal zone and others at abyssal depths . Most species grow fast , mature early and are short - lived . During breeding , the male uses a specially adapted arm to deliver a bundle of sperm directly into the female 's mantle cavity , after which he becomes senescent and dies . The female deposits fertilised eggs in a den and cares for them until they hatch , after which she also dies . </P> <P> Strategies to defend themselves against predators include the expulsion of ink , the use of camouflage and threat displays , their ability to jet quickly through the water , and their ability to hide . All octopuses are venomous , but only the blue - ringed octopuses are known to be deadly to humans . </P> <P> Octopuses appear in mythology as sea monsters like the Kraken of Norway and the Akkorokamui of the Ainu , and probably the Gorgon of ancient Greece . A battle with an octopus appears in Victor Hugo 's book Toilers of the Sea , inspiring other works such as Ian Fleming 's Octopussy . Octopuses appear in Japanese erotic art , shunga . They are eaten by humans in many parts of the world , especially the Mediterranean and the Asian seas . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Etymology and pluralisation </Li> <Li> 2 Anatomy and physiology <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Size </Li> <Li> 2.2 External characteristics </Li> <Li> 2.3 Circulatory system </Li> <Li> 2.4 Respiration </Li> <Li> 2.5 Digestion and excretion </Li> <Li> 2.6 Nervous system and senses </Li> <Li> 2.7 Ink sac </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Lifecycle <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Reproduction </Li> <Li> 3.2 Lifespan </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Distribution and habitat </Li> <Li> 5 Behaviour and ecology <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Feeding </Li> <Li> 5.2 Locomotion </Li> <Li> 5.3 Intelligence </Li> <Li> 5.4 Camouflage and colour change </Li> <Li> 5.5 Defence </Li> <Li> 5.6 Pathogens and parasites </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 Evolution <Ul> <Li> 6.1 Fossil history and phylogeny </Li> <Li> 6.2 Taxonomy </Li> <Li> 6.3 RNA editing </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 7 Relationship to humans <Ul> <Li> 7.1 Cultural references </Li> <Li> 7.2 Danger </Li> <Li> 7.3 Fisheries and cuisine </Li> <Li> 7.4 In science and technology </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 8 References <Ul> <Li> 8.1 Sources </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 9 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Etymology and pluralisation </H2> <P> The scientific Latin term octopus was derived from Ancient Greek ὀκτώπους or ὀκτά - , a compound form of ὀκτώ ( oktō , `` eight '' ) and πούς ( pous , `` foot '' ) , used for example by Alexander of Tralles ( c. 525 - c. 605 ) for the common octopus . The standard pluralised form of `` octopus '' in English is `` octopuses '' / ˈɒktəpəsɪz / ; the Ancient Greek plural ὀκτώποδες , `` octopodes '' / ɒkˈtɒpədiːz / , has also been used historically . The alternative plural `` octopi '' -- which misguidedly assumes it is a Latin `` - us '' - word -- is considered grammatically incorrect , but is used frequently enough to be acknowledged by the descriptivist Merriam - Webster 11th Collegiate Dictionary and Webster 's New World College Dictionary . The Oxford English Dictionary lists `` octopuses '' , `` octopi '' , and `` octopodes '' , in that order , calling `` octopodes '' rare and noting that `` octopi '' is based on a misunderstanding . New Oxford American Dictionary ( 3rd Edition 2010 ) lists `` octopuses '' as the only acceptable pluralisation , and indicates that `` octopodes '' is still occasionally used , but that `` octopi '' is incorrect . </P> <H2> Anatomy and Physiology </H2> <H3> Size </H3> See also : Cephalopod size Giant Pacific octopus at Echizen Matsushima Aquarium , Japan .

</P> <P> Meanwhile , Dreyfus arms his community using the Fort Point armory . Koba discovers the armory and confronts Caesar of this , but accuses him of loving humans more than apes . Caesar beats Koba in response but refrains from killing him . Koba later returns to the armory and takes an assault rifle , killing two guards and then Carver as the humans succeed in repairing the generator and restoring power to the city . Koba takes advantage of their celebration to covertly set fire to the apes ' home . He then shoots Caesar , who falls into the underbrush below , and frames the humans for Caesar 's apparent death in order to wage war .

After reconciling with Caesar , Blue Eyes returns to the tower and frees the imprisoned humans and apes . Malcolm escorts the apes into the tower , and then finds Dreyfus . He learns that the return of electricity allowed Dreyfus ' men to make radio contact with survivors at a military base , who are now coming to fight the apes .

Based on its success , the CBS television network ordered one season of episodes based on the same characters and that became the television series The Waltons . Beginning in September 1972 , the series subsequently aired on CBS for nine seasons . After the series was canceled by CBS in 1981 , NBC aired three television movie sequels in 1982 , with three more in the 1990s on CBS .

The year 1933 is suggested by a reference to the opening of the Century of Progress exposition in Chicago , a brief shot of an automobile registration , and it is divulged in episode 18 that the date is in the spring of 1933 . The last episode of season one , `` An Easter Story '' , is set in February -- April 1934 . The year 1934 takes two seasons to cover , while some successive years are covered over the course of a few months . </P> <P> The series finale , `` The Revel '' , revolves around a party and the invitation date is given as June 4 , 1946 .

Miller Lite competes with Anheuser - Busch 's Bud Light beer . The company also produces Miller Genuine Draft and Miller High Life . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History </Li> <Li> 2 Awards </Li> <Li> 3 Advertising <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Motorsport sponsorship </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 References </Li> <Li> 5 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <P> Miller Lite was essentially the first mainstream light beer . After its first inception as `` Gablinger 's Diet Beer , '' developed in 1967 by Joseph L. Owades , PhD , a biochemist working for New York 's Rheingold Brewery , the recipe was given by Owades to Chicago 's Peter Hand Brewing . That year , Peter Hand Brewing was purchased by a group of investors , renamed Meister Brau Brewing , and Lite was soon introduced as Meister Brau Lite , a companion to their flagship Meister Brau . Under the new management , Meister Brau Brewing encountered significant financial problems , and in 1972 , sold several of its existing labels to Miller . The recipe was relaunched simply as `` Lite '' on packaging and in advertising ( with `` Lite Beer from Miller '' being its `` official '' name until the late ' 90s ) in the test markets of Springfield , Illinois , Knoxville , Tennessee , and San Diego , California , in 1973 , and heavily marketed using masculine pro sports players and other , so - called , macho figures of the day in an effort to sell to the key beer - drinking male demographic . Miller Lite was introduced nationally in 1975 . Miller 's heavy - advertising approach worked where the two previous light beers had failed , and Miller 's early production totals of 12.8 million barrels quickly increased to 24.2 million barrels by 1977 as Miller rose to 2nd place in the American brewing marketplace . Other brewers responded , in particular Anheuser - Busch with its heavily advertised Bud Light in 1982 , which eventually overtook Lite in sales by 1994 . Anheuser - Busch played on the branding style of `` Lite '' by highlighting the fact that their beer was called `` Bud Light , '' as `` everything else is just a light . '' In 1992 , light beers became the biggest domestic beer in America , and in 1998 , Miller relabeled its `` Lite '' brand as `` Miller Lite . '' </P> <P> In 2008 , Miller Brewing Company test - marketed three new recipes -- an amber , a blonde ale , and a wheat -- under the Miller Lite brand , marketed as Miller Lite Brewers Collection . </P> <P> In December 2013 , as part of a product placement marketing campaign with the film Anchorman 2 : The Legend Continues , Miller reintroduced the 1974 navy - blue blackletter font `` Lite '' packaging on its 16 - US - fluid - ounce ( 470 ml ) cans for a limited time ( the original 1972 cans used a light - blue script logo ) . However , the vintage packaging was such a success that by September 2014 , the company decided to switch back to the vintage packaging full - time , including on bottles and tap handles , mirroring the unexpected success that PepsiCo had in 2009 with its Pepsi Throwback & Mountain Dew Throwback lines in tapping into the retro - themed packaging market . The unexpected sales increase , combined with wanting to differentiate the packaging from Bud Light , were factors in the decision , with some consumers even stating that Miller actually improved on the taste when nothing changed in the beer itself . </P> <H2> Awards ( edit ) </H2> <P> Miller Lite Great American Beer Festival 's silver medal in 2003 in the same category . At the 2010 and 2014 Great American Beer Festival , Miller Lite won the gold medal for Best American Style Lager or Light Lager , beating out Miller Genuine Draft , which received the bronze . The beer debuted at # 1 on the list of top 100 beers of all time by Cold Cans . </P> <H2> Advertising ( edit ) </H2> The Miller Lite logo , 2003 - 2014 . <P> Miller Lite 's long - running `` Tastes Great ! ...

It is an uptempo love song that includes bell chimes , heavy back - up vocals , and synthesizers . </P> <P> Two music videos were commissioned for the song : the song 's primary music video features grainy home - movie - style footage of Carey , her dogs and family during the holiday season , as well as Carey dressed in a Santa suit frolicking on a snowy mountainside . Carey 's then - husband Tommy Mottola makes a cameo appearance as Santa Claus , bringing Carey a gift and leaving on a red sleigh .

In 2010 , Carey re-recorded the song for her second holiday album , Merry Christmas II You , titled `` All I Want for Christmas Is You ( Extra Festive ) '' .

The song has also been covered by many artists over the years . </P> <P> In the years since its original release , `` All I Want for Christmas Is You '' has been critically lauded ; it was once called `` one of the few worthy modern additions to the holiday canon '' in The New Yorker .

The song was commercially successful , topping the charts in the Czech Republic , Hungary , the Netherlands , Norway , Slovenia , and Spain while reaching number two in Australia , Japan , and the United Kingdom , and the top 10 in several other countries . With global sales of over 16 million copies , the song remains Carey 's biggest international success and is the 11th best - selling single of all time .

It was released in June 1991 as the third single from the album Gonna Make You Sweat . The single features Freedom Williams and he is also seen in the song 's music video . The song inspired a running gag on The Arsenio Hall Show , where Arsenio , while allegedly on a long drive , pondered certain thoughts and referred to them as `` things that make you go hmmm ... '' </P> <P> The C + C song was a success in the US , reaching number four on the Billboard Hot 100 and number 31 on the Billboard Hot R&B Singles chart . It also reached number four on the UK Singles Chart . The song contains samples from the songs `` I 'm Shook '' by James Brown , `` My Thang '' by James Brown , and `` Apache '' by the Incredible Bongo Band . The song was certified gold by the RIAA on August 13 , 1991 for sales of over 500,000 copies . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Critical reception </Li> <Li> 2 Music video </Li> <Li> 3 In popular culture </Li> <Li> 4 Charts and certifications <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Weekly charts </Li> <Li> 4.2 Year - end charts </Li> <Li> 4.3 Certifications </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Critical reception ( edit ) </H2> <P> Music & Media wrote about the song : `` The secret behind the success of these dance / pop providers is the good hook in their songs .

'' </P> <P> The Gavin Report wrote : `` Writers / producers Cole and Clivilles have successfully crossbred a unique brand of Rap and melody that 's taken them on back - to - back trips into the Top Ten . This third entry maintains their infectious rhythm , strengthened by a title that will keep audiences hummmmin ' . '' </P> <H2> Music video ( edit ) </H2> <P> The music video was directed by Marcus Nispel and the style of the video was a major trendsetter in the early 1990s . It featured silhouetted animation of dancers jumping and dancing in front of a white background , with a stage visible , but also in silhouette . The story of the song was also interpreted with black and gold cut - out animation that was a departure from the in - vogue 3D CGI animation of the time ; however , these 2 - D cut - outs ended up being even more progressive . </P> <H2> In popular culture ( edit ) </H2> <P> In American advertising , Coca - Cola was one of the first to advertise special promotions featuring the group in a special , brief cut of their music video . A version of the song was also used in a series of ads for McDonald 's . </P> <P> The ABC television network was one of the earliest media outlets to jump on the C + C bandwagon , advertising their spring 1992 prime - time programming under the takeoff banner , `` Shows that make you go ... '' , using a custom version of the song and running ads with a woman posing in front of a white background . Then , for their 1992 - 93 network campaign , ABC brought out many of their stars to do a complete take - off of the song and video for the It Must Be ABC banner . </P> <P> The song was heard in the short - lived US TV show Surviving Jack in episode six , `` She Drives Me Crazy '' , as well as in the British television series Brainiac : Science Abuse . </P> <P> The British girl group Stooshe covered the song and released it in 2013 as a B - side to their single `` Black Heart '' , under the title `` Things That Make You Go Mmm '' . The single reached number three in the UK and number four

The G650ER is capable of flying 7,500 nautical miles ( 13,900 km ; 8,600 mi ) at Mach 0.85 , due to its 4,000 pounds ( 1,814 kg ) increase in fuel capacity . Gulfstream stated that a G650ER development aircraft had flown non-stop from Hong Kong to Teterboro , New Jersey , U.S. in March , a distance of 7,494 nautical miles ( 13,879 km ; 8,624 mi ) ; it had also flown non-stop from Los Angeles to Melbourne in Australia . The extra fuel is housed in existing space inside the G650 's wings and aircraft already built may be quickly upgraded to the ER version . The G650ER received its certification in October 2014 and began deliveries in late 2014 ahead of its 2015 target . The G650ER attempted two world records from New York to Beijing to Savannah in February 2015 . </P> <P> Also in May 2014 , Gulfstream confirmed that the G650 would be offered to the United States Air Force for its program to replace the E-8C JSTARS air - to - ground surveillance and targeting aircraft . The still emerging requirements call for an aircraft with a 10 - 13 man crew and a belly - mounted radar 3.9 -- 6 m ( 13 -- 20 ft ) long . </P> <H2> Design ( edit ) </H2> G650 on departure <P> The G650 has a cruise speed of Mach 0.85 to 0.90 , with maximum speed of Mach 0.925 and a range of up to 7,000 nmi ( 13,000 km ) . It can be equipped with a full kitchen and bar and may be equipped with a variety of entertainment features including satellite telephones and wireless Internet .

aerosol cans . Bromomethane is widely used as a fumigant . Dichloromethane is a versatile industrial solvent . </P> <P> The Belgian scientist Frédéric Swarts pioneered the synthesis of CFCs in the 1890s . He developed an effective exchange agent to replace chloride in carbon tetrachloride with fluoride to synthesize CFC - 11 ( CCl F ) and CFC - 12 ( CCl F ) . </P> <P> In the late 1920s , Thomas Midgley , Jr. improved the process of synthesis and led the effort to use CFC as refrigerant to replace ammonia ( NH ) , chloromethane ( CH Cl ) , and sulfur dioxide ( SO ) , which are toxic but were in common use . In searching for a new refrigerant , requirements for the compound were : low boiling point , low toxicity , and to be generally non-reactive . In a demonstration for the American Chemical Society , Midgley flamboyantly demonstrated all these properties by inhaling a breath of the gas and using it to blow out a candle in 1930 . </P> <H3> Commercial development and use ( edit ) </H3> <P> During World War II , various chloroalkanes were in standard use in military aircraft , although these early halons suffered from excessive toxicity . Nevertheless , after the war they slowly became more common in civil aviation as well . In the 1960s , fluoroalkanes and bromofluoroalkanes became available and were quickly recognized as being highly effective fire - fighting materials . Much early research with Halon 1301 was conducted under the auspices of the US Armed Forces , while Halon 1211 was , initially , mainly developed in the UK . By the late 1960s they were standard in many applications where water and dry - powder extinguishers posed a threat of damage to the protected property , including computer rooms , telecommunications switches , laboratories , museums and art collections . Beginning with warships , in the 1970s , bromofluoroalkanes also progressively came to be associated with rapid knockdown of severe fires in confined spaces with minimal risk to personnel . </P> <P> By the early 1980s , bromofluoroalkanes were in common use on aircraft , ships , and large vehicles as well as in computer facilities and galleries . However , concern was beginning to be expressed about the impact of chloroalkanes and bromoalkanes on the ozone layer . The Vienna Convention for the Protection of the Ozone Layer did not cover bromofluoroalkanes as it was thought , at the time , that emergency discharge of extinguishing systems was too small in volume to produce a significant impact , and too important to human safety for restriction . </P> <H3> Regulation ( edit ) </H3> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> This section does not cite any sources . Please help improve this section by adding citations to reliable sources . Unsourced material may be challenged and removed . ( February 2015 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) </Td> </Tr> </Table> <P> Since the late 1970s , the use of CFCs has been heavily regulated because of their destructive effects on the ozone layer . After the development of his electron capture detector , James Lovelock was the first to detect the widespread presence of CFCs in the air , finding a mole fraction of 60 ppt of CFC - 11 over Ireland . In a self - funded research expedition ending in 1973 , Lovelock went on to measure CFC - 11 in both the Arctic and Antarctic , finding the presence of the gas in each of 50 air samples collected , and concluding that CFCs are not hazardous to the environment . The experiment did however provide the first useful data on the presence of CFCs in the atmosphere . The damage caused by CFCs was discovered by Sherry Rowland and Mario Molina who , after hearing a lecture on the subject of Lovelock 's work , embarked on research resulting in the first publication suggesting the connection in 1974 . It turns out that one of CFCs ' most attractive features -- their low reactivity -- is key to their most destructive effects . CFCs ' lack of reactivity gives them a lifespan that can exceed 100 years , giving them time to diffuse into the upper stratosphere . Once in the stratosphere , the sun 's ultraviolet radiation is strong enough to cause the homolytic cleavage of the C - Cl bond . </P> NASA projection of stratospheric ozone , in Dobson units , if chlorofluorocarbons had not been banned . Animated version . <P> By 1987 , in response to a dramatic seasonal depletion of the ozone layer over Antarctica , diplomats in Montreal forged a treaty , the Montreal Protocol , which called for drastic reductions in the production of CFCs . On 2 March 1989 , 12 European Community nations agreed to ban the production of all CFCs by the end of the century . In 1990 , diplomats met in London and voted to significantly strengthen the Montreal Protocol by calling for a complete elimination of CFCs by the year 2000 . By the year 2010 , CFCs should have been completely eliminated from developing countries as well . </P> Ozone - depleting gas trends <P> Because the only CFCs available to countries adhering to the treaty is from recycling , their prices have increased considerably . A worldwide end to production should also terminate the smuggling of this material . However , there are current CFC smuggling issues , as recognized by the United Nations Environmental Programme ( UNEP ) in a 2006 report titled `` Illegal Trade in Ozone Depleting Substances '' . UNEP estimates that between 16,000 -- 38,000 tonnes of CFCs passed through the black market in the mid-1990s . The report estimated between 7,000 and 14,000 tonnes of CFCs are smuggled annually into developing countries . Asian countries are those with the most smuggling ; as of 2007 , China , India and South Korea were found to account for around 70

Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources . Unsourced material may be challenged and removed . ( October 2009 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) </Td> </Tr> </Table> <P> The term Jack Mormon is a slang term originating in nineteenth - century America . It was originally used to describe a person who was not a baptized member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints but who was friendly to Church members and Mormonism , sympathized with them , and / or took an active interest in their belief system . Sometime in the early - to mid-twentieth century , however , the term began to refer to an individual deemed by adherents of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter - day Saints ( LDS Church ) to be an inactive or lapsed member of the LDS Church who , despite his personal religious viewpoint , maintained good relations with and positive feelings toward the LDS Church . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Origin of the term </Li> <Li> 2 Political usage </Li> <Li> 3 Change in terminology </Li> <Li> 4 In popular culture </Li> <Li> 5 See also </Li> <Li> 6 Notes </Li> <Li> 7 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Origin of the term ( edit ) </H2> <P> On April 18 , 1845 , the term `` Jack Mormon '' appeared in The Ottawa Free Trader to refer to J.B. Backenstos , the sheriff of Hancock County , who was `` friendly to the Mormons , though not one himself . '' This early published use of the term marks perhaps the earliest appearance of `` Jack Mormon '' in print , though it was followed soon by other instances in papers such as the New - York Daily Tribune and the Richmond Palladium . Thomas C. Sharp , editor of the Warsaw Signal , also coined the term `` Jack - Mason '' to refer to those who were sympathetic toward Freemasons in the Anti-Masonic political movement . These sympathetic non-Mormons included Nauvoo Justice of the Peace Daniel H. Wells , who later joined the church , and soldier and diplomat Thomas L. Kane . Kane was identified as a sympathetic Jack Mormon by US Army officials and the media , some of whom asserted that he had been secretly baptised into the LDS faith . However friendly toward the LDS people , Kane remained a Presbyterian all of his life . </P> <P> Several LDS historians believe that the term was used prior to Sharp 's mention , and has ties to sympathetic Democrats in Jackson County , Missouri . Their belief is that the term originated in Missouri , during the Kirtland period of Latter Day Saint history , circa 1834 . When Church members were expelled from Jackson County by a mob , many fled to Clay County , where local citizens , mostly Democrats , were sympathetic and friendly toward the Mormons . These citizens were pejoratively labeled `` Jack '' Mormons by the antagonistic citizens of Jackson County . </P> <P> During the early 1980s , it was also used as a description of the FLDS ( Fundamental Latter Day Saints ) who broke from the church , in part , over belief in plural marriage . </P> <H2> Political usage ( edit ) </H2> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> This section does not cite any sources . Please help improve this section by adding citations to reliable sources . Unsourced material may be challenged and removed . ( March 2011 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) </Td> </Tr> </Table> <P> LDS Church membership was made up predominantly of liberal - leaning Democrats until the early 1900s , possibly due to anti-Mormon positions held by the Republican party during the latter half of the 19th Century . However , the church 's conservative positions on social issues such as sexuality , drug use , traditional family values , and the role of religion in government caused large numbers of previously Democratic Latter - day Saints to shift to the Republican Party by the late 1970s . In the late 1970s and early 1980s the LDS church took a stand against the Equal Rights Amendment , and again increased the population 's participation in the Republican party . At that time , many members who were registered Democrats were called `` Jack Mormons '' , not as a negative term , but to distinguish them as traditional liberal Democrats . Because of the negative connotation of the term 's modern context , this usage was short - lived . An alternative theory and contemporary usage holds that the term refers to a person who is a Mormon in `` name only '' ( as in having a common Mormon surname ) as though the `` Mormon '' label were nothing but a surname to this individual . </P> <P> The term was made popular by heavyweight champion William Harrison `` Jack '' Dempsey , born in Manassa , Colorado , on June 24 , 1895 . During the 1920s the greatest American sports hero of the day was undoubtedly Babe Ruth ; his closest rival was Dempsey , a tough heavyweight boxer from the mining West . Around 1880 an LDS Church missionary converted his parents and they moved to the Mormon village of Manassa , Colorado . While his father parted ways with the church , his mother remained a devoted member . Jack would write , `` I 'm proud to be a Mormon . And ashamed to be the Jack Mormon that I am . '' </P> <H2> Change in terminology ( edit ) </H2> <P> The term is now used to describe a baptized member of the LDS Church who rarely or never practices the religion ,

students . Beginning their search for Akeem 's bride , they end up invited by some locals to a rally that is raising money for the inner city . During the rally , Akeem encounters Lisa McDowell , who possesses all the qualities he is looking for , and upon his insistence he and Semmi get entry - level jobs working at the local fast food restaurant called McDowell 's -- an obvious ripoff of McDonald 's -- owned by widower Cleo McDowell , Lisa 's father . </P> <P> Akeem 's attempts to win Lisa 's love are complicated by Lisa 's lazy and obnoxious boyfriend , Darryl Jenks ( Eriq La Salle ) , whose father owns Soul Glo ( a Jheri curl -- like hairstyling aid ) . After Darryl announces their engagement -- without Lisa 's consent -- to their families , she starts dating Akeem , who claims that he comes from a family of poor goat herders . Meanwhile , although Akeem thrives on hard work and learning how commoners live , Semmi is not comfortable with living in such meager conditions . After a dinner date with Lisa is thwarted when Semmi furnishes their apartment with a jacuzzi and other luxuries , Akeem confiscates his money and donates it to two homeless men . Semmi wires a telegraph to King Jaffe for more money , prompting Akeem 's parents to travel to Queens and expose his identity as a prince . </P> <P> Mr. McDowell , initially disapproving of Akeem as he did not want to see his daughter with a poor man , is ecstatic that he is actually an extremely wealthy prince . Lisa , however , becomes angry and confused that Akeem lied to her about his identity . Akeem explains that he wanted her to love him for who , not what he is , even offering to renounce his throne ; but Lisa , still hurt and angry , refuses to marry him . Despondent , Akeem resigns himself to the arranged marriage , but as they leave , King Jaffe is reprimanded by Queen Aeoleon for clinging to out - dated traditions instead of thinking of his son 's happiness . </P> <P> At the wedding procession , a still - heartbroken Akeem waits at the altar as his veiled bride - to - be makes her way down the aisle , but when Akeem lifts the veil to kiss her , he finds Lisa in the wedding gown . Following the ceremony , they ride happily in a carriage to the cheers of Zamundans . Witnessing such splendor , Lisa is both surprised and touched by the fact that Akeem would have given it up just for her . Akeem offers again to abdicate if she does n't want this life , but Lisa playfully declines . </P> <H2> Cast </H2> <Ul> <Li> Eddie Murphy as Prince Akeem Joffer , the prince of Zamunda ; Randy Watson , a soul singer with the fictional band Sexual Chocolate .

A segment of the Trading Places score can be heard during their scene . The Dukes ' limo driver from that film also cameos as the driver of Akeem and Semmi 's limo . </P> <P> Coming to America features Murphy and Hall in several different roles , which , following the success of this film , became a Murphy staple . Hall plays Reverend Brown , who introduces Randy Watson ( Murphy ) .

based Premo - Porretta Power Poll published in the ESPN College Basketball Encyclopedia retroactively ranked teams for each season prior to 1949 , with the NIT champion finishing ahead of the NCAA champion in 1939 and 1941 . Premo - Porretta ranks four NCAA champions as the best for each season , the rest being non-championship winning teams . Between 1939 and 1970 , when teams could compete in either tournament , only DePaul ( 1945 ) , Utah ( 1947 ) , , San Francisco ( 1949 ) and Holy Cross ( 1954 ) claim or celebrate national championships for their teams based solely on an NIT championship , although Long Island recognizes its selection as the 1939 national champion by the Helms Athletic Foundation , made in 1943 . </P> <P> In 1943 the NCAA tournament moved to share Madison Square Garden with the NIT in an effort to increase the credibility of the NCAA Tournament . In 1945 , The New York Times indicated that many teams could get bids to enter either tournament , which was not uncommon in that day . In any case , since the mid-1950s , the NCAA tournament has been popularly regarded by most individuals as the major post season tourney , with conference champions and the majority of the top - ranked teams participating in it . </P> <P> Nevertheless , as late as 1970 , Coach Al McGuire of Marquette , the 8th - ranked team in the final AP poll of the season , spurned an NCAA at - large invitation because the Warriors were going to be placed in the NCAA Midwest Regional ( Fort Worth , Texas ) instead of closer to home in the Mideast Regional ( Dayton , Ohio ) . The team played in the NIT instead , which it won . This led the NCAA to decree in 1971 that any school to which it offered a bid must accept it or be prohibited from participating in postseason competition , reducing the pool of teams that could accept an NIT invitation . </P> <H3> Decline ( edit ) </H3> <P> As the NCAA over time expanded its field to include more teams , the reputation of the NIT suffered . In 1973 , NBC moved televised coverage of the NCAA championship from Saturday afternoon to Monday evening , providing the NCAA Tournament with prime - time television exposure the NIT could not match . Even more crucially , when the NCAA eliminated the one - team - per - conference rule in 1975 , its requirement that teams accept its bids relegated the NIT to a collection of teams that did not make the NCAA grade . </P> <P> Compounding this , to cut costs the NIT moved its early rounds out of Madison Square Garden in 1977 , playing games at home sites until the later rounds . This further harmed the NIT 's prestige , both regionalizing interest in it and marginalizing it by reducing its association with Madison Square Garden . By the mid-1980s , its transition to a secondary tournament for lesser teams was complete . </P> <H3> NCAA takes control ( edit ) </H3> <P> In 2005 , the NCAA purchased 10 - year rights to the NIT from the MIBA for $56.5 million to settle an antitrust lawsuit , which had gone to trial and was being argued until very shortly before the settlement was announced . The MIBA alleged that compelling teams to accept invitations to the NCAA tournament even if they preferred to play in the NIT was an illegal use of the NCAA 's powers . In addition , it argued that the NCAA 's expansion of its tournament to 65 teams ( 68 since 2011 ) was designed specifically to bankrupt the NIT . Faced with the very real possibility of being found in violation of federal antitrust law for the third time in its history , the NCAA chose to settle . ( The first two violations were related to restrictions on televising college football and capping assistant coach salaries . ) As part of the purchase of the NIT by the NCAA , the MIBA disbanded . </P> <H3> Reputation ( edit ) </H3> <P> The status of the post-season National Invitation Tournament as a `` consolation '' fixture has led to somewhat of a stigma in the minds of many fans . When teams with tenuous hopes of an NCAA Tournament berth lose away from home late in the season , opposing fans may taunt the players in the closing seconds with chants of `` NIT ! NIT ! '' . This is done regardless of whether the home team is headed for the NCAA Tournament or not . Irv Moss , a journalist for the Denver Post , once wrote of such a taunt to a defeated team , `` The three - letter word ... was far more cutting than any four - letter word they could have hollered . '' </P> <P> Because the post-season NIT consists of teams that failed to receive a berth in the NCAA Tournament , the NIT has been nicknamed the `` Not Invited Tournament '' , `` Not Important Tournament '' , `` Never Important Tournament '' , `` Nobody 's Interested Tournament '' , `` Needs Improvement Tournament '' , `` No Important Team '' , `` National Insignificant Tournament , '' or simply `` Not In Tournament '' . It has also been called a tournament to see who the `` 69th best team '' in the country is ( since there are now 68 teams in the NCAA Tournament ) . </P> <P> David Thompson , an All - American player from North Carolina State , called the NIT `` a loser 's tournament '' in 1975 . NC State , which had been the previous year 's NCAA champion , refused to play in the tournament that year , following the precedent set by ACC rival Maryland the previous season after losing the Atlantic Coast Conference championship game to the

It was written for and performed in the film by Liza Minnelli . It remains one of the best - known songs about New York City . In 2004 it finished # 31 on AFI 's 100 Years ... 100 Songs survey of top tunes in American cinema . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History </Li> <Li> 2 Certifications </Li> <Li> 3 In popular culture </Li> <Li> 4 Parodies </Li> <Li> 5 See also </Li> <Li> 6 References </Li> <Li> 7 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <P> In 1979 , `` Theme from New York , New York '' was re-recorded by Frank Sinatra for his album Trilogy : Past Present Future ( 1980 ) , and has since become closely associated with him . He occasionally performed it live with Minnelli as a duet . Sinatra recorded it a second time for his 1993 album Duets , with Tony Bennett . </P> <P> The first line of the song is : </P> <P> Start spreadin ' the news , I 'm leaving today I want to be a part of it : New York , New York . </P> <P> The song concludes with the line : </P> <P> If I can make it there , I 'm gon na make it anywhere , It 's up to you , New York , New York . </P> <P> Minnelli 's original recording of the song ( also used in the Tony Bennett version in Duets ) uses the following closing line : </P> <P> If I can make it there , I 'll make it anywhere , Come on come through , New York , New York . </P> <P> It should not be confused with the song `` New York , New York '' , from Leonard Bernstein / Adolph Green / Betty Comden 's musical On the Town ( 1944 ) , which features the lyric `` New York , New York , it 's a helluva town / The Bronx is up and the Battery 's down ... '' </P> <P> Composers Kander and Ebb stated on the A&E Biography episode about Liza Minnelli , that they attribute the song 's success to actor Robert De Niro , who rejected their original theme for the film because he thought it was `` too weak '' . </P> <P> The song did not become a popular hit until it was picked up in concert by Frank Sinatra during his performances at Radio City Music Hall in October 1978 . ( It was not even nominated for the Academy Award for ' Best Song ' ) . Subsequently , Sinatra recorded it in 1979 for his 1980 Trilogy set ( Reprise Records ) , and it became one of his signature songs . The single peaked at # 32 in June 1980 , becoming his final Top Forty charting hit . It was also an Adult Contemporary hit , reaching # 10 in the US and # 2 in Canada . The song made a minor showing in the UK ( # 59 ) , however , recharted several years later and reached # 4 in 1986 . Sinatra made two more studio recordings of the song in 1981 ( for his NBC TV special The Man and His Music ) and 1993 ( for Capitol Records ) . From the latter , an electronic duet with Tony Bennett was produced for Sinatra 's Duets album . </P> <P> The lyrics of the Sinatra versions differ slightly from Ebb 's original lyrics . Notably , the phrase `` A-number - one '' , which does not appear at all in the original lyrics , is sung twice at the song 's rallentando climax

( He legally married fourth wife Robyn in December 2014 in order to legally adopt her three children ) . The other marriages are considered spiritual unions . As of 2015 Kody has been married to Meri for 25 years , Janelle for 22 years , Christine for 21 years , and Robyn for 5 years . Kody and Meri have a daughter named Mariah , their only child . Kody and Janelle have six children : daughters Madison and Savanah and sons Logan , Hunter , Garrison , and Gabriel . Kody and Christine have six children : daughters Aspyn , Mykelti , Gwendlyn , Ysabel , and Truely and son Paedon . Robyn had three children from her first marriage , which was monogamous : Dayton , Aurora , and Breanna . Kody legally adopted them in June 2015 . Kody and Robyn have two children : son Solomon and daughter Ariella . The family has one grandchild , Axel , from Kody and Janelle 's daughter , Madison . </P> <P> Meri , Robyn , and Christine were all raised in polygamist families , but Janelle was not . Although Christine 's mother left the faith she still supports them . Months before the marriage of Janelle and Kody , however , Janelle 's mother entered into a polygamist marriage with Kody 's father . The Brown family belongs to the Apostolic United Brethren ( AUB . ) For years before the series , the family kept their polygamist lifestyle what they called a `` quasi-secret '' . </P> <H2> Development ( edit ) </H2> <P> In the autumn of 2009 , independent producers Timothy Gibbons and Christopher Poole approached Figure 8 Films , a North Carolinian company , with the concept of a reality series about the Brown family . Bill Hayes , the president of Figure 8 Films , said the company agreed to the idea after meeting with the Browns and deciding their lives would make a great story . Camera crews shot footage of the family in mid-2010 to be used in the first season , ending in May with the marriage of Kody Brown and Robyn Sullivan . The crews continued to film them afterward in case the series was picked up for a second season . Sister Wives was publicly introduced on August 6 , 2010 , at the Television Critics Association summer media tour in Beverly Hills , California . The series ' first episode , an hour long , was broadcast on TLC on September 26 , 2010 , and the first season continued with six half - hour chapters until October 17 , 2010 . </P> <P> The broadcast of Sister Wives came at a time that polygamy and multiple marriages were a prevalent topic in American pop culture . Big Love , the hit HBO series about fictional Utah polygamist Bill Henrickson , his three sister wives , and their struggle to gain acceptance in society , had already

Nonetheless , the scholarly consensus is that Buddhism first came to China in the first century CE during the Han dynasty , through missionaries from India . </P> <H3> Han Dynasty ( 206 BCE -- 220 CE ) ( edit ) </H3> Further information : Silk Road transmission of Buddhism Earliest historical arrivals ( edit ) Jiangnan funerary jar , ca . 250 - 300 CE , Jin Dynasty , decorated with a row of Buddhas seated on lotus thrones . <P> Generations of scholars have debated whether Buddhist missionaries first reached Han China via the maritime or overland routes of the Silk Road . The maritime route hypothesis , favored by Liang Qichao and Paul Pelliot , proposed that Buddhism was originally practiced in southern China , the Yangtze River and Huai River region , where prince Ying of Chu ( present day Jiangsu ) was jointly worshipping the Yellow Emperor , Laozi , and Buddha in 65 CE . The overland route hypothesis , favored by Tang Yongtong , proposed that Buddhism disseminated eastward through Yuezhi and was originally practiced in western China , at the Han capital Luoyang ( present day Henan ) , where Emperor Ming of Han established the White Horse Temple in 68 CE . Rong Xinjiang , a history professor at Peking University , reexamined the overland and maritime hypotheses through a multi-disciplinary review of recent discoveries and research , including the Gandhāran Buddhist Texts , and concluded : </P> <P> The view that Buddhism was transmitted to China by the sea route comparatively lacks convincing and supporting materials , and some arguments are not sufficiently rigorous . Based on the existing historical texts and the archaeological iconographic materials discovered since the 1980s , particularly the first - century Buddhist manuscripts recently found in Afghanistan , the commentator believes that the most plausible theory is that Buddhism reached China from the Greater Yuezhi of northwest India and took the land route to reach Han China . After entering into China , Buddhism blended with early Daoism and Chinese traditional esoteric arts and its iconography received blind worship . </P> Traditional accounts ( edit ) White Horse Temple , traditionally held to be at the origin of Chinese Buddhism . <P> A number of popular accounts in historical Chinese literature have led to the popularity of certain legends regarding the introduction of Buddhism into China . According to the most popular one , Emperor Ming of Han ( 28 -- 75 CE ) precipitated the introduction of Buddhist teachings into China . The ( early 3rd to early 5th century ) Mouzi Lihuolun first records this legend : </P> <P> In olden days Emperor Ming saw in a dream a god whose body had the brilliance of the sun and who flew before his palace ; and he rejoiced exceedingly at this . The next day he asked his officials : `` What god is this ? '' the scholar Fu Yi said : `` Your subject has heard it said that in India there is somebody who has attained the Dao and who is called Buddha ; he flies in the air , his body had the brilliance of the sun ; this must be that god . '' </P> <P> The emperor then sent an envoy to Tianzhu ( Southern India ) to inquire about the teachings of the Buddha . Buddhist scriptures were said to have been returned to China on the backs of white horses , after which White Horse Temple was named . Two Indian monks also returned with them , named Dharmaratna and Kaśyapa Mātaṅga . </P> <P> An 8th - century Chinese fresco at Mogao Caves near Dunhuang in Gansu portrays Emperor Wu of Han ( r . 141

The title track from their One of These Nights album , the song became their second single to top the Billboard Hot 100 chart after `` Best of My Love '' and also helped propel the album to number one . The single version was shortened from the album version of the song , removing most of the song 's intro and most of its fade - out , as well . Henley is lead vocalist on the verses , while Randy Meisner sings high harmony ( not lead ) on the refrain . The song features a guitar solo by Don Felder that is `` composed of blues - based licks and sustained string bends using an unusually meaty distortion tone .

Don Henley said : `` We like to be a nice little country - rock band from Los Angeles ... about half the time . '' He added : `` We wanted to get away from the ballad syndrome with `` One of These Nights . '' With Don Felder in the band now , we can really rock . '' Frey said that they `` wanted ' One of These Nights ' to have a lot of teeth , a lot of bite -- a nasty track with pretty vocals . '' </P> <P> The writing was influence by R&B music and disco ; according to Frey , he was listening to Spinners and Al Green records when he started writing the song . Frey started the writing process by composing the music , and Henley then started with the lyrics . Frey said : `` I just went over to the piano and I started playing this little minor descending progression , and he comes over and goes , ' One of these nights ' . '' After that , Frey said : `` What usually happens is when we get the thing fused together , he gets involved in the music and I get involved in the lyrics . '' While they were recording the album in Miami , the band also shared a studio with the Bee Gees , and according to Henley , the `` four - on - the - floor '' bass - drum pattern is a nod to disco . </P> <P> In the liner notes of The Very Best Of , Frey had this to say about the song : </P> <Table> <Tr> <Td> `` </Td> <Td> We had Don Henley 's voice , which allowed us to go in a more soulful direction , which made me exceedingly happy ... A lot of things came together on One Of These Nights -- our love of the studio , the dramatic improvement in Don 's and my songwriting . We made a quantum leap with `` One Of These Nights . '' It was a breakthrough song . It is my favorite Eagles record . If I ever had to pick one , it would n't be `` Hotel California '' ; it would n't be `` Take It Easy .

Hershey -- Chase experiment - wikipedia <H1> Hershey -- Chase experiment </H1> Jump to : navigation , search Overview of experiment and observations <P> The Hershey -- Chase experiments were a series of experiments conducted in 1952 by Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase that helped to confirm that DNA is genetic material . While DNA had been known to biologists since 1869 , many scientists still assumed at the time that proteins carried the information for inheritance because DNA appeared simpler than proteins . In their experiments , Hershey and Chase showed that when bacteriophages , which are composed of DNA and protein , infect bacteria , their DNA enters the host bacterial cell , but most of their protein does not . Although the results were not conclusive , and Hershey and Chase were cautious in their interpretation , previous , contemporaneous , and subsequent discoveries all served to prove that DNA is the hereditary material . </P> <P> Hershey shared the 1969 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with Max Delbrück and Salvador Luria for their `` discoveries concerning the genetic structure of viruses . '' </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Historical background </Li> <Li> 2 Methods and results <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Experiment and conclusions </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Discussion <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Confirmation </Li> <Li> 3.2 Other experiments </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Legacy </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> <Li> 6 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Historical background ( edit ) </H2> <P> In the early twentieth century , biologists thought that proteins carried genetic information . This was based on the belief that proteins were more complex than DNA . Phoebus Levene 's influential `` tetranucleotide hypothesis '' , which incorrectly proposed that DNA was a repeating set of identical nucleotides , supported this conclusion . The results of the Avery -- MacLeod -- McCarty experiment , published in 1944 , suggested that DNA was the genetic material , but there was still some hesitation within the general scientific community to accept this , which set the stage for the Hershey -- Chase experiment . </P> <P> Hershey and Chase , along with others who had done related experiments , confirmed that DNA was the biomolecule that carried genetic information . Before that , Oswald Avery , Colin MacLeod , and Maclyn McCarty had shown that DNA led to the transformation of one strain of Streptococcus pneumoniae to another that was more virulent . The results of these experiments provided evidence that DNA was the biomolecule that carried genetic information . </P> <H2> Methods and results ( edit ) </H2> Structural overview of T2 phage <P> Hershey and Chase needed to be able to examine different parts of the phages they were studying separately , so they needed to isolate the phage subsections . Viruses were known to be composed of a protein shell and DNA , so they chose to uniquely label each with a different elemental isotope . This allowed each to be observed and analyzed separately . Since phosphorus is contained in DNA but not amino acids , radioactive phosphorus - 32 was used to label the DNA contained in the T2 phage . Radioactive sulfur - 35 was used to label the protein sections of the T2 phage , because sulfur is contained in amino acids but not DNA . </P> <P> Hershey and Chase inserted the radioactive elements into the bacteriophages by adding the isotopes to separate media within which bacteria were allowed to grow for 4 hours before bacteriophage introduction . When the bacteriophages infected the bacteria , the progeny contained the radioactive isotopes in their structures . This procedure was performed once for the sulfur - labeled phages and once for phosphorus - labeled phages . The labeled progeny were then allowed to infect unlabeled bacteria . The phage coats remained on the outside of the bacteria , while genetic material entered . Disruption of phage from the bacteria by agitation in a blender followed by centrifugation allowed for the separation of the phage coats from the bacteria . These bacteria were lysed to release phage progeny . The progeny of the phages that were originally labeled with P remained labeled , while the progeny of the phages originally labeled with S were unlabeled . Thus , the Hershey -- Chase experiment helped confirm that DNA , not protein , is the genetic material . </P> <P> Hershey and Chase showed that the introduction of deoxyribonuclease ( referred to as DNase ) , an enzyme that breaks down DNA , into a solution containing the labeled bacteriophages did not introduce any P into the solution . This demonstrated that the phage is resistant to the enzyme while intact . Additionally , they were able to plasmolyze the bacteriophages so that they went into osmotic shock , which effectively created a solution containing most of the P and a heavier solution containing structures called `` ghosts '' that contained the S and the protein coat of the virus . It was found that these `` ghosts '' could adsorb to bacteria that were susceptible to T2 , although they contained no DNA and were simply the remains of the original bacterial capsule . They concluded that the protein protected the DNA from DNAse , but that once the two were separated and the phage was inactivated , the DNAse could hydrolyze the phage DNA . However , it subsequently became clear that in some viruses , RNA is the genetic material . </P> <H3> Experiment and conclusions ( edit ) </H3> <P> Hershey and Chase were also able to prove that the DNA from the phage is inserted into the bacteria shortly after the virus attaches to its host . Using a high speed blender they were able to force the bacteriophages from the bacterial cells after adsorption . The lack of P labeled DNA remaining in the solution after the bacteriophages had been allowed to adsorb to the bacteria showed that the phage DNA was transferred into the bacterial cell .

It was first released as the second single from Play Deep in November 1985 . It was first pushed to album - oriented rock ( AOR ) radio , to maintain momentum generated by the album 's lead single , `` Say It Is n't So '' . After entering the top ten of Billboard 's Top Rock Tracks chart ( which measured the playlists of AOR stations across the U.S. ) , Columbia began expanding the song to top 40 radio in February 1986 . It then peaked at number seven on the Top Rock Tracks chart during the week of March 1 . The song entered the top ten on the Billboard Hot 100 in May 1986 , peaking at number six during the week of May 10 . Overall , it spent 22 weeks on the Hot 100 . </P> <H2> Reception ( edit ) </H2> <P> Rolling Stone contributor Jimmy Guterman wrote that the track `` seems to advocate philandering , '' and that `` the repulsive misogyny contaminates the whole song .

<Tr> <Td> The Village Voice </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> </Table> <P> We Shall Overcome received widespread acclaim from music critics . At Metacritic , which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics , the album received an average score of 82 , based on 25 reviews . In his review for AllMusic , Stephen Thomas Erlewine praised Springsteen 's modern take on Seeger 's repertoire of folk songs and said that it is the liveliest album of his career : `` It 's a rambunctious , freewheeling , positively joyous record unlike any other in Springsteen 's admittedly rich catalog . '' David Browne of Entertainment Weekly felt that Springsteen successfully imbues the songs with a `` rock & roll energy '' rather than an adherence to folk 's blander musical aesthetic . Rolling Stone magazine 's Jonathan Ringen believed that he relied on folk and Americana styles on the album in order to `` find a moral compass for a nation that 's gone off the rails '' , particularly on the implicitly political `` Oh , Mary Do n't You Weep '' , `` Eyes on the Prize '' , and `` We Shall Overcome '' . Gavin Martin of Uncut called it `` a great teeming flood of Americana '' and `` a powerful example of how songs reverberate through the years to accrue contemporary meaning '' . </P> <P> In a less enthusiastic review , Neil Spencer of The Observer wrote that the songs chosen for the album lack intrigue and edge , and are `` mostly too corny to have much drama restored to them '' . Robert Christgau panned We Shall Overcome in his consumer guide for The Village Voice , wherein he gave it a `` B '' , which is assigned to bad albums he reviews as the `` dud of the month '' in his column . He felt that Springsteen relies too much on a rural drawl and overblown sound when folk music requires subtlety and viewed the album as the worst case of his histrionic singing . </P> <P> Seeger himself was pleased by the result , saying `` It was a great honor . ( Springsteen ) 's an extraordinary person , as well as an extraordinary singer . '' We Shall Overcome was voted the 19th best album of the year in the Pazz & Jop , an annual critics poll run by The Village Voice . In 2007 , it won the Grammy Award for Best Traditional Folk Album at the 49th Grammy Awards .

Demetrius ( A Midsummer Night 's Dream ) - wikipedia <H1> Demetrius ( A Midsummer Night 's Dream ) </H1> Jump to : navigation , search <P> Demetrius is one of the iconic lovers in William Shakespeare 's play A Midsummer Night 's Dream . He is a young Athenian who is engaged to another young Athenian , Hermia . He claims to love her , but really appears this way to gain Duke Theseus ' and Egeus ' support ( in one interpretation ) . However , Hermia does not love Demetrius , but instead she loves a man called Lysander . Demetrius follows Hermia and Lysander into the woods once they have fled Athens , whilst Helena follows him . Helena craves Demetrius ' love but he does n't return her love and instead finds her annoying and a nuisance as she tries to win his heart . Eventually Demetrius falls in love with Helena due to Oberon and Puck putting the love juice on his eyes . The storyline is complex and shows the difficulties of true love through comedy . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Role in A Midsummer Night 's Dream </Li> <Li> 2 Interpretation </Li> <Li> 3 Portrayals </Li> <Li> 4 References </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Role in A Midsummer Night 's Dream ( edit ) </H2> <P> After Hermia has confided in Helena regarding her plans to elope with Lysander , Helena reveals the plan to Demetrius , in the hopes of procuring Demetrius 's trust . However , Demetrius merely goes to the forest seeking Hermia , without giving Helena a second thought . After that he returns to the king . </P> <P> Helena follows Demetrius , and Oberon , the fairy king , sees them arguing . Oberon feels pity on Helena and decides to help her by putting love juice on Demetrius 's eyes , thereby compelling Demetrius to return Helena 's love . Oberon instructs Puck , another fairy , to pour love juice on the eyelids of the `` Athenian man '' </P> <P> However , Puck sees Lysander sleeping , and pours the love juice in Lysander 's eyes instead , thus causing Lysander to fall in love with Helena ( and abandon Hermia ) , while Demetrius 's love for Hermia continues unaltered . Later , Puck pours the love juice in Demetrius 's eyes as well , with the result of both Demetrius and Lysander falling in love with Helena and despising Hermia . They fight over Helena , until Puck lulls them to sleep , and then Puck reverses the spell upon Lysander so that Lysander will love Hermia again . The spell on Demetrius , however , is not removed , and the play ends with Demetrius very much in love with Helena . </P> <H2> Interpretation ( edit ) </H2> <P> Thus the love plot is balanced , with Lysander and Hermia forming one couple , and Demetrius and Helena forming another couple . </P> <P> Demetrius has to marry Hermia , while Hermia wants to marry Lysander . When Puck corrects his mistake and Demetrius then falls for Helena , it is because of the love potion . But somewhere deep down Demetrius truly loves Helena . </P> <P> Demetrius watched the tale of Pyramus and Thisbe performed by the six craftsmen on Duke Theseus and the Duchess 's wedding day at night , alongside Helena , Lysander and Hermia .

It was the first single from the album and rose to the number one spot on Christian radio and subsequently became a popular congregational song . Its title is inspired by a biblical expression ( Nehemiah 1 : 5 , Nehemiah 9 : 32 , Psalm 47 , Daniel 9 : 4 , etc . ) , variously translated as `` Awesome God '' , ( JPS , in the old - fashioned meaning `` awe - inspiring '' ) , `` great '' ( KJV ) , among other alternatives .

In an interview with The Lighthouse Electronic Magazine in April 1996 , he said : </P> <P> You know , the thing I like about Awesome God is that it 's one of the worst - written songs that I ever wrote ; it 's just poorly crafted . But the thing is that sometimes , I think , that when you become too conscientious about being a songwriter , the message becomes a vehicle for the medium . This is a temptation that I think all songwriters have . I think a great songwriter is someone who is able to take a very meaningful piece of wisdom - or of folly or whatever - and say it in a way that is most likely to make people respond . But , what you want them to respond to is not how cleverly you did that ; what you want them to respond to is your message . </P> <H2> Cover versions ( edit ) </H2> <P> Over a year after Mullins ' death ( in September 1997 ) the song was covered on a tribute album for Mullins entitled Awesome God : A Tribute to Rich Mullins by Contemporary Christian musician , Michael W.

- developed rectrices . The tail feathers in these animals consisted of downy fuzz and sometimes 2 -- 4 central `` streamers '' such as those found in some specimens of Confuciusornis or in Paraprotopteryx . </P> <P> By contrast , the function of the pygostyle in the terrestrial Nomingia is not known . It is notable however that its older relative Caudipteryx had no pygostyle but a `` fan '' of symmetrical feathers which were probably used in social display . Perhaps such ornaments were widespread in Caenagnathoidea and their relatives , and ultimately the oviraptorosaurian pygostyle evolved to help support them . The related Similicaudipteryx , described in 2008 , also had a rod - like pygostyle , associated with a fan of tail feathers . </P> Yixianornis grabaui , one of the oldest known species with a pygostyle like that in living birds <P> The other pygostyle type is plowshare - shaped . It is found in Ornithurae ( living birds and their closest relatives ) , and in almost all flying species is associated with an array of well - developed rectrices used in maneuvering . The central pair of these attach directly to the pygostyle , just as in Confuciusornis . The other rectrices of Ornithurae are held in place and moved by structures called bulbi rectricium ( rectricial bulbs ) , a complex feature of fat and muscles located on either side of the pygostyle . The oldest known species with such a pygostyle is Hongshanornis longicresta . </P> <P> As evidenced by the oviraptorosaurian cases , the pygostyle evolved at least twice , and rod - shaped pygostyles seem to have evolved several times , in association with shortening of the tail but not necessarily with a retractable fan of tail feathers . In other words , the pygostyles of oviraptorosaurs and Confuciusornis were likely weight - saving measures , and the specialized `` true '' pygostyles of ornithurans were adapted from these later to improve flight performance . </P> <P> The bird clade Pygostylia was named in 1996 , by Luis Chiappe , for the presence of this feature and roughly corresponds to its appearance in the bird family tree , though the feature itself is not included in its definition . In 2001 , Jacques Gauthier and Kevin de Queiroz ( 2001 ) re-defined Pygostylia to refer specifically to the apomorphy of a short tail bearing an avian pygostyle . </P> <H2> Etymology ( edit ) </H2> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> Look up pygostyle in Wiktionary , the free dictionary . </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> This section needs additional citations for verification .

The term must have been known as early as around 1400 AD , when a carpenter had been contracted to provide new choir stalls for St Mary 's Church , Nantwich . The vicar was either slow to pay the artisan , or did not pay at all . In retaliation , on the last misericord in the stalls , the carpenter carved a bird with an image of that Vicar 's face with protuberant nose as rump . The carving is still visible today . </P> <P> A similar derivation applies to the phrase `` Pope 's nose '' , which may have originated as a derogatory term meant to demean Catholics in England during the late 17th century . </P> <P> `` Sultan 's nose '' probably was coined some time during the Early Modern era wars against the Ottoman Empire . </P> <H2> As food ( edit ) </H2> <P> Turkey tail or turkey butt has an international exportation market in places such as Micronesia , Samoa , and Ghana .

Cortisol also plays an important , but indirect , role in liver and muscle glycogenolysis , the breaking down of glycogen to glucose - 1 - phosphate and glucose . This is done through its passive influence on glucagon . Additionally , cortisol facilitates the activation of glycogen phosphorylase , which is necessary for epinephrine to have an effect on glycogenolysis . </P> <P> In the late fasting state , the function of cortisol changes slightly and increases glycogenesis . This response allows the liver to take up glucose not being used by the peripheral tissue and turn it into liver glycogen stores to be used if the body moves into the starvation state . </P> <P> Elevated levels of cortisol , if prolonged , can lead to proteolysis ( breakdown of proteins ) and muscle wasting . Several studies have shown that cortisol can have a lipolytic effect ( promote the breakdown of fat ) .

Players form teams of two or three characters and , controlling one fighter at a time , attempt to damage and knock out their opponents . Players can switch out their characters during the match , allowing team members to replenish their health and prolong their ability to fight . The series ' gameplay is also distinguished from other fighting game franchises due to its character assist mechanics and emphasis on aerial combat . </P> <P> The Marvel vs. Capcom series has received generally positive reviews from critics , who have praised its fast - paced gameplay , animated visuals , and wealth of playable characters . On the other hand , the games have been criticized for their lack of content , especially more recent installments .

At the end of World War II , Viet Minh leader Ho Chi Minh proclaimed Vietnam independent and signed a decree on September 5 , 1945 adopting the flag as the flag of the North Vietnam . The DRV became the government of North Vietnam in 1954 following the Geneva Accords . The flag was modified on November 30 , 1955 to make the edges of the star sharper .

A series of articles by Sơn Tùng on the origin of the flag were published in the state media in 1981 . Sơn Tùng stated that the flag was designed by Nguyễn Hữu Tiến , a leader of the uprising who was arrested by the French in advance of the failed uprising and executed August 28 , 1941 . Tiến , who was born in the northern village of Lũng Xuyên , was unknown to the Vietnamese public before Tùng 's research was published . According to a poem Tiến wrote , the red background represents blood while the yellow foreground represents `` the color of our race 's skin '' , the five points of the star represent intellectuals , peasants , workers , traders and soldiers . Tiến 's poem reads in part : </P> Design proportions of the flag . <P> ... All those of red blood and yellow skin Together we fight under the nation 's sacred flag The flag is soaked with our crimson blood , shed for the nation The yellow star is the colour of our race 's skin Stand up , quickly ! The nation 's soul is calling for us Intellectuals , peasants , workers , traders and armymen United as a five - pointed yellow star ... </P> <P> In April 2001 , Vietnam 's Ministry of Culture reported that there was no documentation to support the claim that Tiến designed the flag . In 2005 , Lê Minh Đức , an official of Tiền Giang province , suggested that the flag was designed by another cadre , Lê Quang Sô , a native of Mỹ Tho Province in the Mekong delta . Đức 's theory is based on statements by Sô 's son as well as Sô 's 1968 memoir . According to Đức , yellow was chosen to represent Vietnam while the red background was inspired by the flag of the Communist Party and represents revolution . Sô experimented with stars in various positions and sizes before choosing a large star in the center for aesthetic reasons . In April 1940 , the flag was approved

It is composed of about 300 bones at birth -- this total decreases to around 206 bones by adulthood after some bones get fused together . The bone mass in the skeleton reaches maximum density around age 21 . The human skeleton can be divided into the axial skeleton and the appendicular skeleton . The axial skeleton is formed by the vertebral column , the rib cage , the skull and other associated bones . The appendicular skeleton , which is attached to the axial skeleton , is formed by the shoulder girdle , the pelvic girdle and the bones of the upper and lower limbs . </P> <P> The human skeleton performs six major functions ; support , movement , protection , production of blood cells , storage of minerals , and endocrine regulation . </P> <P> The human skeleton is not as sexually dimorphic as that of many other primate species , but subtle differences between sexes in the morphology of the skull , dentition , long bones , and pelvis exist .

These authors saw American society on the cusp of positive social change toward pure democracy . Mead argued that for an ideal society to exist , a form of communication must be developed to allow the unique individual to appreciate the attitudes , viewpoints and positions of others unlike himself , and allow him to be understood by others as well . Mead believed that this `` new media '' would allow humans to empathize with others , and therefore moves toward an `` ideal of human society . '' Where Mead sees an ideal society , Dewey names it the `` Great Community , '' and further asserts the assumption that humans are intelligent enough for self - government , and that that knowledge is `` a function of association and communication . '' Similarly , Cooley asserts that political communication makes public opinion possible , which in turn promotes democracy . Each of these authors represent the Chicago School 's attention to electronic communication as a facilitator of democracy , its faith in the informed electorate , and its focus on the individual as opposed to the mass . </P> <H2> First M.A. Media Studies program in the U.S. ( edit ) </H2> <P> The social impact of mass communication has been studied at The New School University in New York since its founding in 1919 . The first college course to investigate the motion picture was offered here in 1926 . Marshall McLuhan 's colleague , John Culkin , brought his Center for Understanding Media to The New School in 1975 and The New School began offering the Master of Arts degree in Media Studies , one of the first graduate programs of its kind . Today , among other programs , MA in Media Studies is still being offered by School of Media Studies , The New School , which will celebrate 40th anniversary of Media Studies at The New School during the academic year 2015 - 2016 </P> <H2> Propaganda studies ( edit ) </H2> <P> Between the First and Second World Wars , the Institute for Propaganda Analysis briefly rose to importance . Their definition of propaganda was </P> <P> `` expression of opinion or action by individuals or groups deliberately designed to influence opinion or actions of other individuals or groups with reference to predetermined ends . '' </P> <P> Harold Lasswell , who worked in the paradigm of the Chicago School of sociology wrote Propaganda Technique in the World War , which included this definition of propaganda : </P> <P> `` Propaganda in the broadest sense is the technique of influencing human action by the manipulation of representations . These representations may take spoken , written , pictorial or musical form . '' </P> <P> These definitions of propaganda clearly show that this was a school of thought that focused on media effects , as it highlighted the influence that media could have over its audiences attitudes and actions . </P> <P> Epitomizing this early school of media effects studies are experiments done by The Experimental Section of the Research Branch of the U.S. War Department 's Information and Education Division . In the experiments , the effects of various U.S. wartime propaganda films on soldiers were observed . </P> <P> Current Propaganda studies are applied into many fields besides politics . Herman described a propaganda model as `` a model of media behavior and performance , not of media effects . '' ( Herman , 2000 , p. 63 ) He argued : `` They are profit - seeking business , owned by very wealthy people ( or other companies ) ; and they are funded largely by advertisers who are also profit - seeking entities , and who want their advertisements to appear in a supportive selling environment . '' He also presented `` five factors : owner ship , advertising , sourcing , flak and anti-communist ideology - work as filters through which information must pass , and that individually and often in cumulative fashion they greatly influence media choices . '' Until now , there is no conclusion of propaganda , debate still continues . </P> <H2> Frankfurt school and critical theory ( edit ) </H2> <P> Typified by the philosophical and theoretical orientations of Max Horkheimer , Theodor Adorno , Walter Benjamin , Leo Lowenthal , and Herbert Marcuse , the Frankfurt school contributed greatly to the development and application of critical theory in media studies . Their Marxist critique of market - driven media was critical of its atomizing and leveling effects . </P> <P> The Frankfurt school also lamented the effects of the `` culture industry '' on the production and appreciation of art . For example , in A Social Critique of Radio Music , Adorno asserts : </P> <P> `` ... music has ceased to be a human force and is consumed like other consumers ' goods . This produces ' commodity listening ' ... The listener suspends all intellectual activity . '' </P> <P> As the Frankfurt

To escape the decline their world is facing , people turn to the OASIS , a virtual reality simulator accessible by players using visors and haptic technology such as gloves . It functions both as an MMORPG and as a virtual society , with its currency being the most stable in the real world . It was created by James Halliday who , when he died , had announced in his will to the public that he had left an Easter egg inside OASIS , and the first person to find it would inherit his entire fortune and the corporation . The story follows the adventures of Wade Watts , starting about five years after the announcement , when he discovers one of the three keys pointing to the treasure . </P> <H3> Plot ( edit ) </H3> <P> Teenager Wade Watts lives with his aunt in Oklahoma City in the `` stacks '' , a poverty - stricken district constructed of trailer homes piled on top of each other . He spends his spare time as a `` gunter '' ( `` egg hunter '' ) , logging on to the OASIS as an avatar under the moniker Parzival , reading Halliday 's journal Anorak 's Almanac , and researching details of the 1980s pop culture , mainly classic video games and movies , that Halliday loved . One day , he realizes that the first key is located on the same virtual world as his own online high school , in a re-creation of the Dungeons & Dragons module Tomb of Horrors . He meets Art3mis , a famous female gunter and blogger who has been exploring the place , and advances further than she does when he defeats the AI Acererak at the video game Joust . He is awarded the Copper Key , and Parzival appears on the `` Scoreboard '' , attracting the world 's attention . </P> <P> Parzival completes the gate 's puzzles by playing through the Dungeons of Daggorath video game and then role - playing Matthew Broderick 's character in the film WarGames . Art3mis clears the gate shortly afterwards , as does Wade 's friend Aech . Wade 's fame enables him to make a living by endorsing virtual products . It also brings him to the attention of Nolan Sorrento , head of operations at Innovative Online Industries ( IOI ) , a multinational corporation bent on taking control of the OASIS and monetizing it through a well - funded effort to find the Easter Egg . When Wade refuses to join IOI , Sorrento attempts to kill him by blowing up the stacks where Wade lives , disguising the explosion as a meth lab accident . </P> <P> Wade escapes Oklahoma City and moves to Columbus , Ohio , where he lies low , assuming the pseudonym Bryce Lynch and living in an anonymous apartment designed for hardcore OASIS users . He considers an alliance with Aech , Art3mis , and Daito and Shoto , two Japanese gunters who have also earned the Copper Key . Instead , he and Art3mis begin a wary friendship , but when he asks her out , Art3mis declines . IOI operatives , called Sixers , attempt to assassinate Wade

Galton and Simpson 's association with comedian Tony Hancock , for whom they had written Hancock 's Half Hour , had ended and they had agreed to a proposal from the BBC to write a series of 10 comedy shows . The fourth in the series , `` The Offer '' , was born both out of writer 's block and budgetary constraints . Earlier shows in the series had cost more than expected , so the writers decided to write a two - hander set in one room . The idea of two brothers was considered but father and son worked best . Ronald Fraser was second choice for Harold , which would have produced a totally different character . </P> <P> Galton and Simpson were not aiming to make a pilot for a series , having worked for seven years with Hancock . However , Tom Sloan , the BBC 's head of comedy , told them during rehearsals that `` The Offer '' was a definite series pilot : he saw that the Steptoe idea had potential , as did the audience of that edition of Comedy Playhouse . Galton and Simpson were reportedly overwhelmed by this reaction , and the first of what became eight series was commissioned , the first four of which were transmitted between 1962 and 1965 . The last four series were broadcast between 1970 and 1974 , in colour . At the peak of the series ' popularity , it received viewing figures of some 28,000,000 viewers per episode . In addition , the early 1970s saw two feature films , two 46 - minute Christmas specials . In 2005 , the play Steptoe and Son in Murder at Oil Drum Lane , written by Ray Galton and John Antrobus , brought the storyline to a close . </P> <P> The series was one of the first UK situation comedy programmes to employ actors rather than comedians in the principal roles . Galton and Simpson had decided that they wanted to try to write for performers who `` did n't count their laughs '' . </P> <P> The series ' title music , `` Old Ned '' , won its composer Ron Grainer his second successive Ivor Novello award . The series had no standard set of opening titles but the opening sequences would often feature the Steptoe 's horse , Hercules . `` Steptoe and Son '' is the Steptoes ' trading name , but as established in the first episode , the `` Son '' is not Harold as initially believed , but Albert . The name dates from when he and his mother -- Mrs. Steptoe -- worked the rounds . The first series has the pair as very rough looking and often dirty and wearing ragged clothes , but they quickly `` tidied up '' for later series . </P> <P> Outside filming of the Steptoe 's yard took place at a car breakers ' yard in Norland Gardens , London W11 , then changing to Stable Way , Latimer Road , for the later series . Both sites have subsequently been redeveloped with no evidence now remaining of the iconic entrance gates through which the horse and cart were frequently driven . </P> <H2> Characters ( edit ) </H2> <P> Main Article : List of Steptoe and Son characters </P> <H2> Situation ( edit ) </H2> <P> The episodes often revolve around ( sometimes violent ) disagreements between the two men , Harold 's attempts to bed women and momentary interest over things found on his round . As in many of the best examples of British comedy , much of the humour derives from the pathos of the protagonists ' situation , especially Harold 's continually thwarted ( usually by the elder Steptoe ) attempts to `` better himself '' and the unresolvable love / hate relationship that exists between the pair . </P> <P> Albert almost always comes out on top , and routinely and effortlessly proves himself easily superior to his son whenever they compete , e.g. in their frequent game - playing , such as snooker played into the night and pouring rain in 1970 and the Scrabble and badminton games in the 1972 series . Harold takes them desperately seriously and sees them as symbols of his desire to improve himself , but his efforts come to nothing every time . His father 's success is partly down to superior talent but is aided by cynical gamesmanship and undermining of his son 's confidence . In addition , Albert habitually has better judgement than his son , who blunders into all sorts of con tricks and blind alleys as a result of his unrealistic , straw - clutching ideas . Occasionally the tables are turned , but overall the old man is the winner , albeit in a graceless fashion . </P> <P> Harold is infuriated by these persistent frustrations and defeats , even going to the extent in `` Divided We Stand '' ( 1972 ) of partitioning the house in two so that he does not have to share with his selfish , uncultured and negative father . Predictably , his plan ends in failure and ultimately he can see no way out . However , for all the bitterness there is an essential bond between the pair . Deep down , Albert seems to love his son and his behaviour

A stone , rather than marble , slab covers the rectangular opening . </P> <H2> Tomb of 1931 ( edit ) </H2> <P> Since 1921 the intent was to place a superstructure on top of the Tomb , but it was not until July 3 , 1926 , that Congress authorized the completion of the Tomb and the expenditure of $50,000 ( with a completed cost of $48,000 ) . A design competition was held and won by architect Lorimer Rich and sculptor Thomas Hudson Jones . An appropriation from Congress for the work was secured and on December 21 , 1929 , a contract for completion of the Tomb itself was entered into . The Tomb would consist of seven pieces of marble in four levels ( cap , die , base and sub-base ) of which the die is the largest block with the sculpting on all four sides . </P> <P> Quarrying the Yule marble ( 3.9 miles south of Marble , Colorado by the Vermont Marble Company ) was a one - year process beginning in 1930 . The cap was quarried on the first attempt but the base required three tries . The large middle block also required three tries . In late January 1931 , the 56 ton middle block was lifted out of the quarry . The quarrying involved 75 men . When the block was separated from the mountain inside the quarry it weighed 124 tons . A wire saw was then brought into the quarry to cut the block down to 56 tons . </P> <P> On February 3 , the block reached the marble mill site ( in the town of Marble ) after a four - day trip from the quarry . Here it was crated , then shipped to Vermont on February 8 . The block was sawn to final size in West Rutland , Vermont and fabricated by craftsmen in Proctor , Vermont before it was shipped by train to Arlington National Cemetery , Virginia . By September , all 7 blocks were on the grounds of the Tomb site , at Arlington . </P> <P> Assembly began in September 1931 . An imperfection was found in the base requiring three more quarryings . By the end of December 1931 , the assembly was completed . Finishing work followed with the carvings on the die block by the Piccirilli Brothers under the direction of the sculptor Thomas Jones . ( The brothers also carved the Lincoln statue for the Lincoln Memorial ) . The Tomb was completed without formal ceremony on April 9 , 1932 . </P> <P> The Tomb was placed at the head of the grave of the World War I Unknown . West of this grave are the crypts of Unknowns from World War II ( south ) and Korea ( north ) . Between the two lies a crypt that once contained an Unknown from Vietnam ( middle ) . His remains were positively identified in 1998 through DNA testing as First Lieutenant Michael Blassie , United States Air Force and were removed . Those three graves are marked with white marble slabs flush with the plaza . </P> <P> The Tomb has a flat - faced form and is relieved at the corners and along the sides by neo-classical pilasters set into the surface with objects and inscription carved into the sides . The 1931 symbolism of the objects on the north , south and east sides changed over time . </P> <Dl> <Dd> North and South panel with 3 wreaths on each side represent ( in 1931 ) `` a world of memories '' but later

Bell and Lee Phillip Bell for CBS . The show is set in a fictional Wisconsin town called Genoa City , which is unlike and unrelated to the real life village of the same name , Genoa City , Wisconsin . First broadcast on March 26 , 1973 , The Young and the Restless was originally broadcast as half - hour episodes , five times a week . The show expanded to one - hour episodes on February 4 , 1980 . In 2006 , the series began airing encore episodes weeknights on SOAPnet until 2013 , when Y&R moved to TVGN ( now Pop ) . Pop still airs the encore episodes on weeknights , starting July 1 , 2013 . The series is also syndicated internationally . </P> <P> The Young and the Restless originally focused on two core families : the wealthy Brooks family and the working class Foster family . After a series of recasts and departures in the early 1980s , all the original characters except Jill Foster and Katherine Chancellor were written out . Bell replaced them with the new core families , the Abbotts and the Williamses . Over the years , other families such as the Newmans , Winters , and the Baldwin - Fishers were introduced . Despite these changes , one storyline that has endured through almost the show 's entire run is the feud between Jill Abbott and Katherine Chancellor , the longest rivalry on any American soap opera . </P> <P> Since its debut , The Young and the Restless has won nine Daytime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Drama Series . It is also currently the highest - rated daytime drama on American television . As of 2008 , it had appeared at the top of the weekly Nielsen ratings in that category for more than 1,000 weeks since 1988 . As of December 12 , 2013 , according to Nielsen ratings , The Young and the Restless was the leading daytime drama for an unprecedented 1,300 weeks , or 25 years . The serial is also a sister series to The Bold and the Beautiful , as several actors have crossed over between shows . In June 2017 , The Young and the Restless was renewed for three additional years . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History </Li> <Li> 2 Production <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Videotaping and broadcasting </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Casting and story development </Li> <Li> 4 Executive producers and head writers </Li> <Li> 5 Awards <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Daytime Emmy Awards </Li> <Li> 5.2 TV Soap Golden Boomerang Awards </Li> <Li> 5.3 Writers Guild of America Awards </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 Broadcast <Ul> <Li> 6.1 Oceania </Li> <Li> 6.2 Europe </Li> <Li> 6.3 African / Eastern </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 7 Theme music and other music </Li> <Li> 8 Ratings <Ul> <Li> 8.1 Ratings history </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 9 See also </Li> <Li> 10 References </Li> <Li> 11 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <P> To compete with the youthful ABC soap operas , All My Children , One Life to Live , and General Hospital , CBS executives wanted a new daytime serial that was youth oriented .

ancestry . Growing up in a tight - knit , football - loving family , `` Leo '' developed a passion for the sport from an early age , playing constantly with his older brothers , Rodrigo and Matías , and his cousins , Maximiliano and Emanuel Biancucchi , both of whom became professional footballers . At the age of four he joined local club Grandoli , where he was coached by his father , though his earliest influence as a player came from his maternal grandmother , Celia , who accompanied him to training and matches . He was greatly affected by her death , shortly before his eleventh birthday ; since then , as a devout Catholic , he has celebrated his goals by looking up and pointing to the sky in tribute of his grandmother . </P> `` When you saw him you would think : this kid ca n't play ball . He 's a dwarf , he 's too fragile , too small . But immediately you 'd realise that he was born different , that he was a phenomenon and that he was going to be something impressive . '' <P> -- Newell 's Old Boys youth coach Adrián Coria shares his first impression of the 12 - year - old Messi . </P> <P> A lifelong supporter of Newell 's Old Boys , Messi joined the Rosario club when he was six years old . During the six years he played for Newell 's , he scored almost 500 goals as a member of `` The Machine of ' 87 '' , the near - unbeatable youth side named for the year of their birth , and regularly entertained crowds by performing ball tricks during half - time of the first team 's home games . However , his future as a professional player was threatened when , at age 10 , he was diagnosed with a growth hormone deficiency . As his father 's health insurance covered only two years of growth hormone treatment , which cost at least $ 1,000 per month , Newell 's agreed to contribute , but later reneged on their promise . He was scouted by Buenos Aires club River Plate , whose playmaker , Pablo Aimar , he idolised , but they were also unable to pay for his treatment due to the country 's economic collapse . </P> Messi enrolled at Barcelona 's youth academy , La Masia , at age 13 <P> As the Messi family had relatives in Catalonia , they sought to arrange a trial with Barcelona in September 2000 . First team director Charly Rexach immediately wanted to sign him , but the board of directors hesitated ; at the time it was highly unusual for European clubs to sign foreign players of such a young age . On 14 December , an ultimatum was issued for Barcelona to prove their commitment , and Rexach , with no other paper at hand , offered a contract on a paper napkin . In February 2001 , the family relocated to Barcelona , where they moved into an apartment near the club 's stadium , Camp Nou . During his first year in Spain , Messi rarely played with the Infantiles due to a transfer conflict with Newell 's ; as a foreigner , he could only be fielded in friendlies and the Catalan league . Without football , he struggled to integrate into the team ; already reserved by nature , he was so quiet that his teammates initially believed he was mute . At home , he suffered from homesickness after his mother moved back to Rosario with his brothers and little sister , María Sol , while he stayed in Barcelona with his father . </P> <P> After a year at Barcelona 's youth academy , La Masia , Messi was finally enrolled in the Royal Spanish Football Federation ( RFEF ) in February 2002 . Now playing in all competitions , he befriended his teammates , among whom were Cesc Fàbregas and Gerard Piqué . After completing his growth hormone treatment aged 14 , Messi became an integral part of the `` Baby Dream Team '' , Barcelona 's greatest - ever youth side . During his first full season ( 2002 -- 03 ) , he was top scorer with 36 goals in 30 games for the Cadetes A , who won an unprecedented treble of the league and both the Spanish and Catalan cups . The Copa Catalunya final , a 4 -- 1 victory over Espanyol , became known in club lore as the partido de la máscara , the final of the mask . A week after suffering a broken cheekbone during a league match , Messi was allowed to start the game on the condition that he wear a plastic protector ; soon hindered by the mask , he took it off and scored two goals in 10 minutes before his substitution . At the close of the season , he received an offer to join Arsenal , his first from a foreign club , but while Fàbregas and Piqué soon left for England , he chose to remain in Barcelona . </P> <H2> Club career </H2> <H3> Barcelona </H3> 2003 -- 05 : rise to the first team `` It seemed as if he had been playing with us all his life . '' <P> -- Barcelona 's then assistant coach Henk Ten Cate on Messi 's first - team debut . </P> <P> During the 2003 -- 04 season , his fourth with Barcelona , Messi rapidly progressed through the club 's ranks , debuting for a record five teams in a single campaign . After being named player of the tournament in four international pre-season competitions with the Juveniles B , he played only one official match with the team before being promoted to the Juveniles A , where he scored 18 goals in 11 league games .

The series takes place in the fictional town of Peach Creek . The number of characters in Ed , Edd n Eddy is fixed at twelve ( thirteen if Plank , a board of wood who acts as one character 's imaginary friend , is included ) . </P> <P> The show revolves around three best friends ( Ed , Edd , and Eddy ) , usually referred to as `` the Eds '' . There is a secondary group of characters ( Kevin , Rolf , Nazz , Jimmy , Sarah and Jonny ) , and three teenage girls known as `` the Kanker Sisters '' . Most of the children live in the cul - de-sac , while the Kanker Sisters live in the nearby `` Park ' n ' Flush '' trailer park . Eddy 's brother is a character mentioned throughout the series , mostly by Eddy , but is never seen until the movie Ed , Edd n Eddy 's Big Picture Show ; He is the only fully seen adult in the series . </P> <P> The series ' characters have received awards and nominations at the 2002 Fancy Anvil Awards , a fictional award show broadcast on Cartoon Network . Antonucci stated the personalities of the Eds are based on personal traits of himself , and the activities of his two sons , and that the other characters are based on children he grew up with . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Creation </Li> <Li> 2 Protagonists <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Eddy </Li> <Li> 2.2 Edd ( Double D ) </Li> <Li> 2.3 Ed </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Supporting characters <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Jonny </Li> <Li> 3.2 Jimmy </Li> <Li> 3.3 Sarah </Li> <Li> 3.4 Kevin </Li> <Li> 3.5 Rolf </Li> <Li> 3.6 Nazz </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Other characters <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Kanker Sisters </Li> <Li> 4.2 Eddy 's Brother </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 Reception , appearances in other media and merchandising </Li> <Li> 6 See also </Li> <Li> 7 References </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Creation </H2> <P> According to cartoonist and Ed , Edd n Eddy creator Danny Antonucci , he based the characters on real people in his life ; the personalities of Ed , Edd , and Eddy are based on his own traits , and the activities of his two sons while the cul - de-sac children and the Kanker sisters were all based on children he grew up with . Rolf is based on himself and his cousins , since he was part of an immigrant family , and grew up in a first generation foreign household with different customs and ways of living , compared to those born in Canada . Jimmy is based on one of his cousins , who spent most of his time playing with girls than boys and was rather feminine . Jonny and Plank are inspired by one of Antonucci 's childhood friends , a loner who spent most of his time outside with his blanket . He stated that he believed it was important to add Plank , a board of wood , to the show , and that he `` thought it would be really cool to do the show with Plank taking on a character of his own '' and to cause Jonny to do things he would usually never do . Some wanted Plank to be able to talk , smile and blink as if he was alive , but Antonucci insisted that it should be treated as a piece of wood , brought to life by Jonny 's imagination . </P> <P> All the children have multicolored tongues ; Antonucci said that the idea came after he saw his son and his friends with different - colored tongues because of eating different candy while he was working on a storyboard . The characters went through a number of `` walking cycles '' , a process used to determine how each character should walk or run , turn around , blink , etc. before the crew came up with the final product . </P> <H2> Protagonists </H2> <H3> Eddy </H3> <P> Eddy ( Tony Sampson ) is the self - appointed leader of the Eds . He is selfish , loud - mouthed , immature , greedy , and hot - tempered . He loves money , jawbreakers ( which he likes to spend his ill - earned money on ) , dirty magazines ( as hinted in `` Luck of the Ed '' ) , his room , and Chunky Puffs . Eddy ordinarily comes up with the plans for scamming people , but they usually fail , much to his frustration . Eddy will often , especially in the early seasons , slack off by suntanning or drinking a soda while his fellow Eds do all the work . His prized possessions include his magazines , king - sized bed , and disco ball . He also has a Barry White album and is a fan of Tom Jones . Eddy is the shortest of the Eds and takes this very seriously , hating the thought of people calling him short , suggesting he may have a Napoleon complex . Eddy sometimes boasts about his older brother and uses this to his advantage to gain respect . Like Kevin , Eddy can be cruel and acerbic , with a tendency to tease his peers , but deep down , Eddy only

ordering . Other magnetic orderings , such as spin glass ordering , also exhibit this phenomenon . </P> Physical origin ( edit ) Main article : Ferromagnetism <P> The phenomenon of hysteresis in ferromagnetic materials is the result of two effects : rotation of magnetization and changes in size or number of magnetic domains . In general , the magnetization varies ( in direction but not magnitude ) across a magnet , but in sufficiently small magnets , it does not . In these single - domain magnets , the magnetization responds to a magnetic field by rotating . Single - domain magnets are used wherever a strong , stable magnetization is needed ( for example , magnetic recording ) . </P> <P> Larger magnets are divided into regions called domains . Across each domain , the magnetization does not vary ; but between domains are relatively thin domain walls in which the direction of magnetization rotates from the direction of one domain to another . If the magnetic field changes , the walls move , changing the relative sizes of the domains . Because the domains are not magnetized in the same direction , the magnetic moment per unit volume is smaller than it would be in a single - domain magnet ; but domain walls involve rotation of only a small part of the magnetization , so it is much easier to change the magnetic moment . The magnetization can also change by addition or subtraction of domains ( called nucleation and denucleation ) . </P> Magnetic hysteresis models ( edit ) <P> The most known empirical models in hysteresis are Preisach and Jiles - Atherton models . These models allow an accurate modeling of the hysteresis loop and are widely used in the industry . However , these models lose the connection with thermodynamics and the energy consistency is not ensured . Last models rely on a consistent thermodynamic formulation . VINCH model is inspired by the kinematic hardening laws and by the thermodynamics of irreversible processes . In particular , in addition to provide an accurate modeling , the stored magnetic energy and the dissipated energy are known at all times . The obtained incremental formulation is variationally consistent , i.e. , all internal variables follow from the minimization of a thermodynamic potential . That allows to obtain easily a vectorial model while Preisach and Jiles - Atherton are fundamentally scalar models . </P> Applications ( edit ) Main article : Magnet § Common uses of magnets <P> There are a great variety of applications of the hysteresis in ferromagnets . Many of these make use of their ability to retain a memory , for example magnetic tape , hard disks , and credit cards . In these applications , hard magnets ( high coercivity ) like iron are desirable so the memory is not easily erased . </P> <P> Magnetically soft ( low coercivity ) iron is used for the cores in electromagnets . The low coercivity reduces that energy loss associated with hysteresis . The low energy loss during a hysteresis loop is also the reason why soft iron is used for transformer cores and electric motors . </P> <H3> Electrical hysteresis ( edit ) </H3> <P> Electrical hysteresis typically occurs in ferroelectric material , where domains of polarization contribute to the total polarization . Polarization is the electrical dipole moment ( either C m or C m ) . The mechanism , an organization of the polarization into domains , is similar to that of magnetic hysteresis . </P> <H3> Liquid -- solid - phase transitions ( edit ) </H3> <P> Hysteresis manifests itself in state transitions when melting temperature and freezing temperature do not agree . For example , agar melts at 85 ° C and solidifies from 32 to 40 ° C . This is to say that once agar is melted at 85 ° C , it retains a liquid state until cooled to 40 ° C. Therefore , from the temperatures of 40 to 85 ° C , agar can be either solid or liquid , depending on which state it was before . </P> <H2> In biology ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Cell biology and genetics ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Cell biology <P> Hysteresis in cell biology often follows bistable systems where the same input state can lead to two different , stable outputs . Where bistability can lead to digital , switch - like outputs from the continuous inputs of chemical concentrations and activities , hysteresis makes these systems more resistant to noise . These systems are often characterized by higher values of the input required to switch into a particular state as compared to the input required to stay in the state , allowing for a transition that is not continuously reversible , and thus less susceptible to noise . </P> <P> Cells undergoing cell division exhibit hysteresis in that it takes a higher concentration of cyclins to switch them from G2 phase into mitosis than to stay in mitosis once begun . </P> <P> Biochemical systems can also show hysteresis - like output when slowly varying states that are not directly monitored are involved , as in the case of the cell cycle arrest in yeast in exposed to mating pheromone . Here , the duration of cell cycle arrest depends not only on the final level of input Fus3 , but also on the previously achieved Fus3 levels . This effect is achieved in due to the slower time scales involved in the transcription of intermediate Far1 , such that the total Far1 activity reaches its equilibrium value slowly , and for transient changes in Fus3 concentration , the response of the system depends on the Far1 concentration achieved with the transient value . Experiments in this type of hysteresis benefit from the ability to change the concentration of the inputs with time . The mechanisms are often elucidated by allowing independent control of the concentration of the key intermediate , for instance , by using an inducible promoter . </P> Main article : Chromatin

Usually , this state results when the forward reaction proceeds at the same rate as the reverse reaction . The reaction rates of the forward and backward reactions are generally not zero , but equal . Thus , there are no net changes in the concentrations of the reactant ( s ) and product ( s ) .

For any reaction mixture to exist at equilibrium , the rates of the forward and backward ( reverse ) reactions are equal . In the following chemical equation with arrows pointing both ways to indicate equilibrium , A and B are reactant chemical species , S and T are product species , and α , β , σ , and τ are the stoichiometric coefficients of the respective reactants and products : </P> <Dl> <Dd> α A + β B ⇌ σ S + τ T </Dd> </Dl> <P> The equilibrium concentration position of a reaction is said to lie `` far to the right '' if , at equilibrium , nearly all the reactants are consumed . Conversely the equilibrium position is said to be `` far to the left '' if hardly any product is formed from the reactants . </P> <P> Guldberg and Waage ( 1865 ) , building on Berthollet 's ideas , proposed the law of mass action : </P> <Dl> <Dd> forward reaction rate = k + A α B β backward reaction rate = k − S σ T τ ( \ displaystyle ( \ begin ( aligned ) ( \ ce ( forward ~ reaction ~ rate ) ) & = k_ ( + ) ( \ ce ( A ) ) ^ ( \ alpha ) ( \ ce ( B ) ) ^ ( \ beta ) \ \ ( \ ce ( backward ~ reaction ~ rate ) ) & = k_ ( - ) ( \ ce ( S ) ) ^ ( \ sigma ) ( \ ce ( T ) ) ^ ( \ tau ) \ end ( aligned ) ) ) </Dd> </Dl> <P> where A , B , S and T are active masses and k and k are rate constants . Since at equilibrium forward and backward rates are equal : </P> <Dl> <Dd> k + ( A ) α ( B ) β = k − ( S ) σ ( T ) τ ( \ displaystyle k_ ( + ) \ left \ ( ( \ ce ( A ) ) \ right \ ) ^ ( \ alpha ) \ left \ ( ( \ ce ( B ) ) \ right \ ) ^ ( \ beta ) = k_ ( - ) \ left \ ( ( \ ce ( S ) ) \ right \ ) ^ ( \ sigma ) \ left \ ( ( \ ce ( T ) ) \ right \ ) ^ ( \ tau ) \ , ) </Dd> </Dl> <P> and the ratio of the rate constants is also a constant , now known as an equilibrium constant . </P> <Dl> <Dd> K c = k + k − = ( S ) σ ( T ) τ ( A ) α ( B ) β ( \ displaystyle K_ ( c ) = ( \ frac ( k_ ( + ) ) ( k_ ( - ) ) ) = ( \ frac ( \ ( ( \ ce ( S ) ) \ ) ^ ( \ sigma ) \ ( ( \ ce ( T ) ) \ ) ^ ( \ tau ) ) ( \ ( ( \ ce ( A ) ) \ ) ^ ( \ alpha ) \ ( ( \ ce ( B ) ) \ ) ^ ( \ beta ) ) ) ) </Dd> </Dl> <P> By convention the products form the numerator . However , the law of mass action is valid only for concerted one - step reactions that proceed through a single transition state and is not valid in general because rate equations do not , in general , follow the stoichiometry of the reaction as Guldberg and Waage had proposed ( see , for example , nucleophilic aliphatic substitution by S 1 or reaction of hydrogen and bromine to form hydrogen

Following Christopher Columbus ' establishment of permanent settlement in the Caribbean , the Spanish authorized expeditions or entradas for the discovery , conquest , and colonization of new territory , using existing Spanish settlements as a base . </P> <P> The Spanish campaign began in February 1519 , following the Spanish arrival in Yucatán in 1517 . Two years later the Spanish set sail , thus beginning the campaign of colonization of the Americas . The Spanish campaign declared victorious on August 13 , 1521 , when a coalition army of Spanish forces and native Tlaxcalan warriors led by Hernán Cortés and Xicotencatl the Younger captured the emperor Cuauhtemoc and Tenochtitlan , the capital of the Aztec Empire . </P> <P> During the campaign , Cortés was given support from a number of tributaries and rivals of the Aztecs , including the Totonacs , and the Tlaxcaltecas , Texcocans , and other city - states particularly bordering Lake Texcoco . In their advance , the allies were tricked and ambushed several times by the people they encountered . After eight months of battles and negotiations , which overcame the diplomatic resistance of the Aztec Emperor Moctezuma II to his visit , Cortés arrived in Tenochtitlan on November 8 , 1519 , where he took up residence , welcomed by Moctezuma . When news reached Cortés of the death of several of his men during the Aztec attack on the Totonacs in Veracruz , he took the opportunity to take Moctezuma captive , Moctezuma allowed himself to be captured as a diplomatic gesture . Capturing the cacique or indigenous ruler was standard operating procedure for Spaniards in their expansion in the Caribbean , so capturing Moctezuma had considerable precedent , which might well have included those in Spain during the Christian reconquest of territory held by Muslims . </P> <P> When Cortés left Tenochtitlan to return to the coast and deal with the expedition of Pánfilo de Narváez , Pedro de Alvarado was left in charge . Alvarado allowed a significant Aztec feast to be celebrated in Tenochtitlan and on the pattern of the earlier massacre in Cholula , closed off the square and massacred the celebrating Aztec noblemen . The biography of Cortés by Francisco López de Gómara contains a description of the massacre . The Alvarado massacre at the Main Temple of Tenochtitlan precipitated rebellion by the population of the city . Moctezuma was killed , although the sources do not agree on who murdered him . According to one account , when Moctezuma , now seen as a mere puppet of the invading Spaniards , attempted to calm the outraged populace , he was killed by a projectile .

From left to right : Walshe outside his monkey costume , getting into his costume , and in full costume with makeup . <P> Walshe was born as Patrick Walshe , on July 26 , 1900 , in New York City . Living his early years in Brooklyn , Walshe suffered from a form of restricted growth , and as a result never grew to be taller than 3'10 `` . </P> <P> Performing came to him young , appearing in various vaudeville shows and circuses . In 1910 , Walshe appeared in the Ringling Brothers Circus , a circus run by the famed five Ringling Brothers siblings . In the following years , Walshe appeared in the Broadway shows ; Hell and Lew Fields ' Bunty , Bulls and Strings , in which he played `` Mr MacGregor '' , a Scottish farmer . In 1913 , Walshe heard that the American Play Company where producing a performance of Within the Law , consisting entirely of a cast of dwarf actors , and he wrote to them hoping for a part . The same year , Walshe appeared in the Broadway production A Good Little Devil , starring Mary Pickford . In this production Walshe played the roles of a gnome called `` Huggermunk '' , and also squirrel . During 1914 , Walshe spent time with the Frank A. Robbins Circus . </P> <P> Many of Walshe 's performances included playing animals , particularly monkeys or apes . Eventually Walshe began to specialize in performing monkeys , which gained him popularity on the vaudeville circuit , appearing in such events as Lew Fields 's and Joe Weber 's Reunion show . Appearing in many variety shows , Walshe earned prominence for his performances and received him the nickname ; ' the monkey man ' . Of particular note was the meticulous attention to detail that Walshe gave to his performances . Walshe would spend time visiting the zoo , and studying the movement of the apes . Walshe had much fascination with the creatures putting significant effort into successfully mimicking not only the monkey 's physicality but also impersonating the sounds that they made . Walshe was even allowed by the zookeeper ( who he was friends with ) to enter the cages of the apes , to spend time close up with them . Walshe 's performances were perfected to such a degree of accuracy that , when wearing his costume , he allegedly was able to convince a particular chimp , that he was in fact an ape , scaring the creature . </P> <P> Rather than gluing fur to his body , Walshe had a costumer make a special fur suit for him . However , Walshe dealt with the makeup himself . With grey paint , he used highlights and shadows , as well as protruding false teeth and a wig to transform himself into a monkey . Walshe often worked directly with apes , which was dangerous work due to the unpredictable nature of the creatures . Though Walshe was well acquainted with them , having an in - depth knowledge of ape psychology as well as being naturally comfortable around them . </P> <P> In addition to working with live apes , simply to mimic their movements , Walshe also performed with them . One of his best - known performances was alongside the trained chimp , Baldy , of which he was the custodian of for several years . Walshe and Baldy appeared together in many shows , with a particular act , amongst other stunts , including the two of them riding a two - seated bicycle . Working with Baldy 's trainer , the two of them spent weeks inside Baldy 's cage , to help prepare her for the performance , as well as simply studying her behavior . He had a close bond with Baldy , and was known to carry around a picture of her in his pocket . Walshe , admitted his admiration for Baldy , who he described as `` the most intelligent of all performers of the animal kingdom '' . </P> <P> Throughout the 1920s , Walshe had earned a reputation for his act . At one point , Walshe did work as a businessman ,

John Wesley Charles Wesley <P> The Methodist revival began with a group of men , including John Wesley ( 1703 -- 1791 ) and his younger brother Charles ( 1707 -- 1788 ) , as a movement within the Church of England in the 18th century . The Wesley brothers founded the `` Holy Club '' at the University of Oxford , where John was a fellow and later a lecturer at Lincoln College . The club met weekly and they systematically set about living a holy life . They were accustomed to receiving Communion every week , fasting regularly , abstaining from most forms of amusement and luxury and frequently visited the sick and the poor , as well as prisoners . The fellowship were branded as `` Methodist '' by their fellow students because of the way they used `` rule '' and `` method '' to go about their religious affairs . John , who was leader of the club , took the attempted mockery and turned it into a title of honour . </P> <P> In 1735 , at the invitation of the founder of the Georgia Colony , General James Oglethorpe , both John and Charles Wesley set out for America to be ministers to the colonists and missionaries to the Native Americans . Unsuccessful in their work , the brothers returned to England conscious of their lack of genuine Christian faith . They looked for help to Peter Boehler and other members of the Moravian Church . At a Moravian service in Aldersgate on 24 May 1738 , John experienced what has come to be called his evangelical conversion , when he felt his `` heart strangely warmed '' . He records in his journal : `` I felt I did trust in Christ , Christ alone , for salvation ; and an assurance was given me that He had taken away my sins , even mine , and saved me from the law of sin and death . '' Charles had reported a similar experience a few days previously . Considered a pivotal moment , Daniel L. Burnett writes : `` The significance of ( John ) Wesley 's Aldersgate Experience is monumental ... Without it the names of Wesley and Methodism would likely be nothing more than obscure footnotes in the pages of church history . '' </P> <P> The Wesley brothers immediately began to preach salvation by faith to individuals and groups , in houses , in religious societies , and in the few churches which had not closed their doors to evangelical preachers . John Wesley came under the influence of the Dutch theologian Jacobus Arminius ( 1560 -- 1609 ) . Arminius had rejected the Calvinist teaching that God had pre-ordained an elect number of people to eternal bliss while others perished eternally . Conversely , George Whitefield ( 1714 -- 1770 ) , Howell Harris ( 1714 -- 1773 ) , and Selina Hastings , Countess of Huntingdon ( 1707 -- 1791 ) were notable for being Calvinistic Methodists . </P> George Whitefield <P> George Whitefield , returning from his own mission in Georgia , joined the Wesley brothers in what was rapidly to become a national crusade . Whitefield , who had been a fellow student of the Wesleys at Oxford , became well known for his unorthodox , itinerant ministry , in which he was dedicated to open - air preaching -- reaching crowds of thousands . A key step in the development of John Wesley 's ministry was , like Whitefield , to preach in fields , collieries and churchyards to those who did not regularly attend parish church services . Accordingly , many Methodist converts were those disconnected from the Church of England ; Wesley remained a cleric of the Established Church and insisted that Methodists attend their local parish church

In an interview with the Nashville City Paper , Thile described the formation of the band : </P> <P> We got together one night just to drop a ton of money , drink too much wine , eat steaks , and commiserate about our failed relationships . We had gotten to play together a few days before and we had said that we needed to do something musical together . With our hearts smashed to pieces , it became more urgent -- our lives had gone the same way for so long . I knew I wanted to have a band with Gabe ( Witcher ) , but I did n't know if it would be a rock ensemble , an ambitious acoustic classical thing or a bluegrass group . We played , and there was a serious , instantaneous connection . Then I knew I wanted to put together a bluegrass band -- one with a lot of range , but aesthetically a bluegrass band . </P> <P> Initially the band was known as The How to Grow a Band . In 2007 , the band officially changed its name first to The Tensions Mountain Boys and then settled on Punch Brothers . The band 's name comes from the critical line of an earworm jingle that is the centerpiece of Mark Twain 's short story `` A Literary Nightmare '' . The chorus of the jingle consists of two lines , `` Punch , brothers ! punch with care ! Punch in the presence of the passenjare '' , that are said to be the mantra of railroad conductors . </P> <P> What they formed was a type of group that American Songwriter magazine calls `` A 21st century version of the Bluegrass Boys . '' </P> <H3> 2007 -- 2009 : `` the Blind Leaving the Blind '' and Punch ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Punch ( album ) Chris Thile and Punch Brothers at Wintergrass , 2008 <P> On March 17 , 2007 , this group debuted Chris Thile 's most ambitious work to date at Carnegie Hall : `` The Blind Leaving the Blind '' , a forty - minute suite in four movements . Thile says the piece was written in part to deal with his divorce of 2003 . </P> <P> On February 13 , 2008 , the band set off on their first national tour as Punch Brothers . </P> <P> On February 26 , 2008 , Punch Brothers released the album , Punch , on Nonesuch Records . The album features Thile 's suite `` The Blind Leaving the Blind '' , as well as other original songs . </P> <P> In March 2008 , when Chris Thile was asked in an interview if there would be another album by Punch Brothers , Thile said that `` there will definitely be another album . '' </P> <P> On November 8 , 2008 , the band announced on their website that they parted ways with bass player Greg Garrison . Paul Kowert , who studied under Edgar Meyer at the Curtis Institute of Music , took Garrison 's place on the bass . </P> <H3> 2010 : Antifogmatic ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Antifogmatic ( album ) <P> Antifogmatic , the second album by Punch Brothers , was released on June 15 , 2010 and features both traditional bluegrass and newgrass styles on the ten - track listing . Though bassist Kowert toured extensively with the band in support of Punch over the last two years , Antifogmatic is the first Punch Brothers album on which he appears . </P> <H3> 2011 : documentary How to Grow a band ( edit ) </H3> <P> The band is also the focus of the documentary `` How to Grow A Band '' directed by Mark Meatto . It was filmed over a two - year period and , according to the website , `` explores the tensions between individual talents and group identity , art and commerce , youth and wisdom . '' The film premiered at the 42nd Nashville Film Festival in Nashville , Tennessee on April 15 , 2011 . The film also screened as part of the 38th Annual Telluride Bluegrass Festival in June 2011 . </P> <H3>

It causes the sexually transmitted genitourinary infection gonorrhea as well as other forms of gonococcal disease including disseminated gonococcemia , septic arthritis , and gonococcal ophthalmia neonatorum . </P> <P> It is oxidase positive , aerobic , and it survives within neutrophils . To culture , it requires carbon dioxide supplementation and enriched agar ( chocolate agar ) with various antimicrobials ( Thayer - Martin ) . It exhibits antigenic variation through recombination of its pili and surface proteins that interact with the immune system . </P> <P> Sexual transmission is possible through vaginal , anal , or oral sex . Sexual transmission may be prevented through the use of barrier protection . Perinatal transmission may occur during childbirth , and may be prevented by antibiotic treatment of the mother before birth and the application of antibiotic eye gel on the eyes of the newborn . After an episode of gonococcal infection , infected persons do not develop immunity to future infections . Reinfection is possible due to N. gonorrhoeae 's ability to evade the immune system by varying its surface proteins . </P> <P> N. gonorrhoeae can cause infection of the genitals , throat , and eyes . Asymptomatic infection is common in males and females . Untreated infection may spread to the rest of the body ( disseminated gonorrhea infection ) , especially the joints ( septic arthritis ) . Untreated infection in women may cause pelvic inflammatory disease and possible infertility due to the resulting scarring . Diagnosis is through culture , gram stain , or PCR of a urine sample , urethral swab , or cervical swab . Chlamydia co-testing and testing for other STI 's is recommended due to high rates of coinfection . </P> <P> Due to resistance to penicillins , standard treatment is with the third generation cephalosporin ceftriaxone . Antibiotic resistance is a growing problem due to N. gonnorhoeae 's recombinant abilities . There is currently no vaccine available for N. gonorrhoeae although efforts are underway to develop one . Because it is possible to contract gonorrhea multiple times from the same partner ( who may or may not be symptomatic ) notification and treatment of sexual partners is recommended . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Microbiology <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Culture and identification </Li> <Li> 1.2 Surface proteins </Li> <Li> 1.3 Antigenic variation </Li> <Li> 1.4 Survival of gonococci </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Genome <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Horizontal gene transfer </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Transmission </Li> <Li> 4 Disease <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Diagnosis </Li> <Li> 4.2 Prevention </Li> <Li> 4.3 Treatment </Li> <Li> 4.4 Antibiotic resistance </Li> <Li> 4.5 Vaccine </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 History <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Name origin </Li> <Li> 5.2 Discovery </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 See also </Li> <Li> 7 References </Li> <Li> 8 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Microbiology.

Pour point - wikipedia <H1> Pour point </H1> Jump to : navigation , search <P> The pour point of a liquid is the temperature at which it becomes semi solid and loses its flow characteristics . In crude oil a high pour point is generally associated with a high paraffin content , typically found in crude deriving from a larger proportion of plant material . That type of crude oil is mainly derived from a kerogen Type III . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Measuring the pour point of petroleum products <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Manual method </Li> <Li> 1.2 Automatic method </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Measuring the pour point of crude oils </Li> <Li> 3 See also </Li> <Li> 4 References </Li> <Li> 5 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Measuring the pour point of Petroleum Products ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Manual method ( edit ) </H3> <P> ASTM D97 , Standard Test Method for Pour Point of Crude Oils . The specimen is cooled inside a cooling bath to allow the formation of paraffin wax crystals . At about 9 ° C above the expected pour point , and for every subsequent 3 ° C , the test jar is removed and tilted to check for surface movement . When the specimen does not flow when tilted , the jar is held horizontally for 5 sec . If it does not flow , 3 ° C is added to the corresponding temperature and the result is the pour point temperature . </P> <P> It is also useful to note that failure to flow at the pour point may also be due to the effect of viscosity or the previous thermal history of the specimen . Therefore , the pour point may give a misleading view of the handling properties of the oil . Additional fluidity tests may also be undertaken . An approximate range of pour point can be observed from the specimen 's upper and lower pour point . </P> <H3> Automatic method ( edit ) </H3> <P> ASTM D5949 , Standard Test Method for Pour Point of Petroleum Products ( Automatic Pressure Pulsing Method ) is an alternative to the manual test procedure . It uses automatic apparatus and yields pour point results in a format similar to the manual method ( ASTM D97 ) when reporting at a 3 ° C . </P> <P> The D5949 test method determines the pour point in a shorter period of time than manual method D97 . Less operator time is required to run the test using this automatic method . Additionally , no external chiller bath or refrigeration unit is needed . D5949 is capable of determining pour point within a temperature range of − 57 ° C to + 51 ° C. Results can be reported at 1 ° C or 3 ° C testing intervals . This test method has better repeatability and reproducibility than manual method D97 . </P> <P> Under ASTM D5949 , the test sample is heated and then cooled by a Peltier device at a rate of 1.5 ± 0.1 ° C / min . At either 1 ° C or 3 ° C intervals , a pressurized pulse of compressed gas is imparted onto the surface of the sample . Multiple optical detectors continuously monitor the sample for movement . The lowest temperature at which movement is detected on the sample surface is determined to be the pour point . </P> <H2> Measuring the pour point of crude Oils ( edit ) </H2> <P> Two pour points can be derived which can give an approximate temperature window depending on its thermal history . Within this temperature range , the sample may appear liquid or solid . This peculiarity happens because wax crystals form less readily when it has been heated within the past 24 hrs and contributes to the lower pour point . </P> <P> The upper pour point is measured by pouring the test sample directly into a test jar . The sample is then cooled and inspected for pour point as per the usual pour point method . The method usually gives higher pour point because the thermal history has not been cancelled by a prolonged thermal treatment . </P> <P> The lower pour point is measured by first pouring the sample into a stainless steel pressure vessel . The vessel is then screwed tight and heated to above 102 ° C in an oil bath . After a specified time , the vessel is removed and cooled for a short while . The sample is then poured into a test jar and immediately closed with a cork carrying the thermometer . The sample is then cooled and then inspected for pour point as per the usual pour point method . </P> <H2> See also ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> Cloud point </Li> <Li> Cold filter plugging point </Li> <Li> Crude oil assay </Li> <Li> Gel point ( petroleum ) </Li> <Li> Petroleum </Li> <Li> Viscosity </Li> <Li> Wax </Li> </Ul> <H2> References ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> Jump up ^ http://www.astm.org/Standards/D5949.htm </Li> </Ol> <H2> External links ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> Some background knowledge about pour point and different measuring methods ( manufacturer of pour point tester ) </Li> <Li> USFS Pour Point and Product Fluidity of Various Class A Foams </Li> <Li> Phase Technology Manufacturer of ASTM D5949 automatic pour point analyzers </Li> </Ul> Retrieved from `` https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pour_point&oldid=803627360 '' Categories : <Ul> <Li> Chemical properties </Li> <Li> Threshold temperatures </Li> </Ul> <H2> </H2> <H3> </H3> <Ul> <Li> </Li> <Li> Talk </Li> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> </Ul> <H3> </H3> <Ul> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> </Ul> <H3> </H3> <Ul> </Ul> <H3> </H3> <Ul> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> </Ul> <H3> </H3> <Ul> </Ul> <H3> </H3> <H3> </H3> <Ul> <Li> </Li> <Li> Contents </Li> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> </Ul> <H3> </H3> <Ul> <Li> </Li> <Li> About Wikipedia </Li> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> </Ul> <H3> </H3> <Ul> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> <Li>

His first term was marked with increased industrialization and the creation of solid infrastructure nationwide , such as the North Luzon Expressway and the Maharlika Highway . Marcos did this by appointing a cabinet composed mostly of technocrats and intellectuals , by increasing funding to the Armed Forces , and mobilizing them to help in construction . Marcos also established schools and learning institutions nationwide , more than the combined total of those established by his predecessors . </P> <P> In 1968 , Senator Benigno S. Aquino Jr. warned that Marcos was on the road to establishing `` a garrison state '' by `` ballooning the armed forces budget '' , saddling the defense establishment with `` overstaying generals '' and `` militarizing our civilian government offices '' . These were prescient comments in the light of events that would happen in the following decade . Marcos also sent 10,450 Filipino soldiers to Vietnam during his term , under the PHILCAG ( Philippine Civic Action Group ) . Fidel Ramos , who was later to become the 12th President of the Philippines in 1992 , was a part of this expeditionary force . </P> <H3> Second term ( edit ) </H3> <P> In 1969 , Marcos ran for a second term ( allowable under the 1935 constitution then in effect ) , and won against 11 other candidates . </P> <P> Marcos ' second term was marked by economic turmoil brought about by factors both external and internal , a restless student body who demanded educational reforms , a rising crime rate , and a growing Communist insurgency , among other things . </P> Ferdinand Marcos , president from 1965 -- 1986 . <P> At one point , student activists took over the Diliman campus of the University of the Philippines and declared it a free commune , which lasted for a while before the government dissolved it . Violent protesting continued over the next few years until the declaration of martial law in 1972 . The event was popularly known as the First Quarter Storm . </P> <P> During the First Quarter Storm in 1970 the line between leftist activists and communists became increasingly blurred , as a significant number of Kabataang Makabayan ( '

Structure of the Earth - wikipedia <H1> Structure of the Earth </H1> Jump to : navigation , search Structure of the Earth <P> The interior structure of the Earth is layered in spherical shells : an outer silicate solid crust , a highly viscous mantle , a liquid outer core that is much less viscous than the mantle , and a solid inner core . Scientific understanding of the internal structure of the Earth is based on observations of topography and bathymetry , observations of rock in outcrop , samples brought to the surface from greater depths by volcanoes or volcanic activity , analysis of the seismic waves that pass through the Earth , measurements of the gravitational and magnetic fields of the Earth , and experiments with crystalline solids at pressures and temperatures characteristic of the Earth 's deep interior . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Mass </Li> <Li> 2 Structure <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Crust </Li> <Li> 2.2 Mantle </Li> <Li> 2.3 Core </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 See also </Li> <Li> 4 References </Li> <Li> 5 Further reading </Li> <Li> 6 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Mass ( edit ) </H2> <P> The force exerted by Earth 's gravity can be used to calculate its mass . Astronomers can also calculate Earth 's mass by observing the motion of orbiting satellites . Earth 's average density can be determined through gravitometric experiments , which have historically involved pendulums . </P> <P> The mass of Earth is about 7024600000000000000 ♠ 6 × 10 kg . </P> <H2> Structure ( edit ) </H2> Earth 's radial density distribution according to the preliminary reference earth model ( PREM ) .

Mechanically , it can be divided into lithosphere , asthenosphere , mesospheric mantle , outer core , and the inner core . Chemically , Earth can be divided into the crust , upper mantle , lower mantle , outer core , and inner core . The geologic component layers of Earth are at the following depths below the surface : </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th colspan="2"> Depth </Th> <Th> Layer </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Kilometres </Th> <Th> Miles </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 0 -- 60 </Td> <Td> 0 -- 37 </Td> <Td> Lithosphere ( locally varies between 5 and 200 km ) </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 0 -- 35 </Td> <Td> 0 -- 22 </Td> <Td> ...

The core does not allow shear waves to pass through it , while the speed of travel ( seismic velocity ) is different in other layers . The changes in seismic velocity between different layers causes refraction owing to Snell 's law , like light bending as it passes through a prism . Likewise , reflections are caused by a large increase in seismic velocity and are similar to light reflecting from a mirror . </P> <H3> Crust ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Crust ( geology ) <P> The crust ranges from 5 -- 70 kilometres ( 3.1 -- 43.5 mi ) in depth and is the outermost layer . The thin parts are the oceanic crust , which underlie the ocean basins ( 5 -- 10 km ) and are composed of dense ( mafic ) iron magnesium silicate igneous rocks , like basalt . The thicker crust is continental crust , which is less dense and composed of ( felsic ) sodium potassium aluminium silicate rocks , like granite . The rocks of the crust fall into two major categories -- sial and sima ( Suess , 1831 -- 1914 ) . It is estimated that sima starts about 11 km below the Conrad discontinuity ( a second order discontinuity ) . The uppermost mantle together with the crust constitutes the lithosphere . The crust - mantle boundary occurs as two physically different events . First , there is a discontinuity in the seismic velocity , which is most commonly known as the Mohorovičić discontinuity or Moho . The cause of the Moho is thought to be a change in rock composition from rocks containing plagioclase feldspar ( above ) to rocks that contain no feldspars ( below ) . Second , in oceanic crust , there is a chemical discontinuity between ultramafic cumulates and tectonized harzburgites , which has been observed from deep parts of the oceanic crust that have been obducted onto the continental crust and preserved as ophiolite sequences . </P> <P> Many rocks now making up Earth 's crust formed less than 100 million ( 1 × 10 ) years ago ; however , the

Recorded and released on the American Pie album in 1971 , the single was a number - one US hit for four weeks in 1972 and also topped the charts in Australia , Canada , and New Zealand . In the UK , the single reached No. 2 on its original 1972 release while a reissue in 1991 reached No. 12 . The song was listed as the No. 5 song on the RIAA project Songs of the Century . A truncated version of the song was covered by Madonna in 2000 and reached No. 1 in several countries , including the United Kingdom , Canada and Australia . </P> <P> The repeatedly mentioned phrase `` the day the music died '' refers to the plane crash in 1959 which killed early rock and roll performers Buddy Holly , The Big Bopper , and Ritchie Valens . ( The crash was not known by that name until after McLean 's song became a hit . ) The meaning of the other lyrics has long been debated , and for decades , McLean declined to explain the symbolism behind the many characters and events mentioned . However , the overall theme of the song is the loss of innocence of the early rock and roll generation as symbolized by the plane crash which claimed the lives of three of its heroes . </P> <P> In 2017 , McLean 's original recording was selected for preservation in the National Recording Registry by the Library of Congress as being `` culturally , historically , or artistically significant '' . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Background <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Interpretations </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Personnel </Li> <Li> 3 Charts <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Weekly charts </Li> <Li> 3.2 Year - end charts </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Parodies , revisions , and uses </Li> <Li> 5 Madonna version <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Background </Li> <Li> 5.2 Reception </Li> <Li> 5.3 Music video </Li> <Li> 5.4 Credits and personnel </Li> <Li> 5.5 Charts <Ul> <Li> 5.5. 1 Weekly charts </Li> <Li> 5.5. 2 Year - end charts </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5.6 Certifications </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 References </Li> <Li> 7 Further reading </Li> <Li> 8 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Background ( edit ) </H2> <P> While it has been claimed that Don McLean began writing the song in upstate Saratoga Springs , New York , at Caffe Lena , a 2011 New York Times article quotes Don McLean as disputing this claim . Some employees at Caffe Lena claim that he started writing the song there , and then continued to write the song in both Cold Spring , New York , and Philadelphia , Pennsylvania . McLean claims that the song was only written in Cold Spring and Philadelphia . Tin & Lint , a bar on Caroline Street in Saratoga Springs , claims the song was written there , and a plaque marks the table . While some have said that other places , such as Saint Joseph 's University , as where the song was first performed , McLean insists that the song made its debut in Philadelphia at Temple University when he opened for Laura Nyro on March 14 , 1971 . </P> <H3> Interpretations ( edit ) </H3> <P> Except to acknowledge that he first learned about Buddy Holly 's death on February 3 , 1959 -- McLean was age 13 -- when he was folding newspapers for his paper route on the morning of February 4 , 1959 ( the line `` February made me shiver / with every paper I 'd deliver '' ) , McLean has generally avoided responding to direct questions about the song 's lyrics ; he has said : `` They 're beyond analysis . They 're poetry . '' He also stated in an editorial published in 2009 , on the 50th anniversary of the crash that killed Holly , Ritchie

its own right . The island has played an important part in the defence of the ports of Southampton and Portsmouth , and been near the front - line of conflicts through the ages , including the Spanish Armada and the Battle of Britain . Rural for most of its history , its Victorian fashionability and the growing affordability of holidays led to significant urban development during the late 19th and early 20th centuries . Historically part of Hampshire , the island became a separate administrative county in 1890 . It continued to share the Lord Lieutenant of Hampshire until 1974 , when it was made its own ceremonial county . Apart from a shared police force , there is now no administrative link with Hampshire , although a combined local authority with Portsmouth and Southampton was considered , this is now unlikely to proceed . Until 1995 the island had a governor . </P> <P> The quickest public transport link to the mainland is the hovercraft from Ryde to Southsea ; three ferry and two catamaran services cross the Solent to Southampton , Lymington and Portsmouth . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Formation and early history </Li> <Li> 1.2 Middle Ages </Li> <Li> 1.3 Early modern period </Li> <Li> 1.4 Modern history </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Geography </Li> <Li> 3 Geology </Li> <Li> 4 Climate </Li> <Li> 5 Wildlife </Li> <Li> 6 Politics </Li> <Li> 7 Main towns </Li> <Li> 8 Culture <Ul> <Li> 8.1 Language and dialect </Li> <Li> 8.2 Identity </Li> <Li> 8.3 `` Hauntings '' </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 9 Sport <Ul> <Li> 9.1 Cycling </Li> <Li> 9.2 Rowing </Li> <Li> 9.3 Sailing </Li> <Li> 9.4 Trampolining </Li> <Li> 9.5 Marathon </Li> <Li> 9.6 Speedway </Li> <Li> 9.7 Field hockey </Li> <Li> 9.8 Football </Li> <Li> 9.9 Cricket </Li> <Li> 9.10 Island Games </Li> <Li> 9.11 Motor scooter </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 10 Music </Li> <Li> 11 Economy <Ul> <Li> 11.1 Socio - economic data </Li> <Li> 11.2 Industry and agriculture <Ul> <Li> 11.2. 1 Breweries </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 11.3 Services <Ul> <Li> 11.3. 1 Tourism and heritage </Li> <Li> 11.3. 2 Transport </Li> <Li> 11.3. 3 Media </Li> </Ul> </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 12 Prisons </Li> <Li> 13 Education </Li> <Li> 14 Notable residents <Ul> <Li> 14.1 17th century and earlier </Li> <Li> 14.2 18th century </Li> <Li> 14.3 19th century </Li> <Li> 14.4 20th century onwards </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 15 Places of interest </Li> <Li> 16 Overseas names </Li> <Li> 17 Media references <Ul> <Li> 17.1 Film </Li> <Li> 17.2 Games </Li> <Li> 17.3 Literature </Li> <Li> 17.4 Music </Li> <Li> 17.5 Radio </Li> <Li> 17.6 Television </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 18 See also </Li> <Li> 19 Notes </Li> <Li> 20 References </Li> <Li> 21 External links <Ul> <Li> 21.1 Photos </Li> </Ul> </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> Main article : History of the Isle of Wight <H3> Formation and early History ( edit ) </H3> <P> During the last Ice Age , sea levels were lower and the Solent was part of a river flowing south east from current day Poole Harbour towards mid-Channel . As sea levels rose , the river valley became flooded , and the chalk ridge line west of the Needles breached to form the island . </P> <P> The first inhabitants are assumed to have been hunter - gatherers migrating by land during the Paleolithic or Old Stone Age period , as the ice began to recede . From the Neolithic era onwards , there are indications that the island had wide trading links , with a port at Bouldnor , evidence of Bronze Age tin trading , and finds of Late Iron Age coins . </P> <P> Julius Caesar reported that the Belgae took the Isle of Wight in about 85 BC , and gave its name as Vectis . The Roman historian Suetonius mentions that the island was captured by the commander Vespasian . The Romans built no towns or roads on the island , but the remains of at least seven Roman villas have been found , indicating the prosperity of local agriculture . </P> <P> During the Dark Ages the island was settled by Jutes as the pagan kingdom of Wihtwara under King Arwald . In 685 it was invaded by Caedwalla , who tried to replace the inhabitants with his own followers . In 686 Arwald was defeated and the island became the last part of English lands to be converted to Christianity , added to Wessex and then becoming part of England under King Alfred the Great , included within the shire of Hampshire . </P> <P> It suffered especially from Viking raids , and was often used as a winter base by Viking raiders when they were unable to reach Normandy . Later , both Earl Tostig and his brother Harold Godwinson ( who became King Harold II ) held manors on the island . </P> Carisbrooke Castle just outside Carisbrooke <H3> Middle ages ( edit ) </H3> <P> The Norman Conquest of 1066 created the position of Lord of the Isle of Wight , the island being given by William the Conqueror to his kinsman William FitzOsbern . Carisbrooke Priory and the fort of Carisbrooke Castle were then founded . Allegiance was sworn to FitzOsbern rather than the king ; the Lordship was subsequently granted to the de Redvers family by Henry I , after his succession in 1100 . </P> <P> For nearly 200 years the island was a semi-independent feudal fiefdom , with the de Redvers family ruling from Carisbrooke .

( North is down . ) <P> The lunar phase or phase of the Moon is the shape of the directly sunlit portion of the Moon as viewed from Earth . The lunar phases gradually and cyclically change over the period of a synodic month ( about 29.53 days ) , as the orbital positions of the Moon around Earth and of Earth around the Sun shift . </P> <P> The Moon 's rotation is tidally locked by Earth 's gravity ; therefore , most of the same lunar side always faces Earth . This near side is variously sunlit , depending on the position of the Moon in its orbit . Thus , the sunlit portion of this face can vary from 0 % ( at new moon ) to 100 % ( at full moon ) . The lunar terminator is the boundary between the illuminated and darkened hemispheres . </P> <P> Each of the four `` intermediate '' lunar phases ( see below ) is around 7.4 days , but this varies slightly due to the elliptical shape of the Moon 's orbit .

These are the instances when the Moon 's ecliptic longitude and the Sun 's ecliptic longitude differ by 0 ° , 90 ° , 180 ° , and 270 ° , respectively . Each of these phases occur at slightly different times when viewed from different points on Earth . During the intervals between principal phases , the Moon 's apparent shape is either crescent or gibbous . These shapes , and the periods when the Moon shows them , are called the intermediate phases and last one - quarter of a synodic month , or 7.38 days , on average . However , their durations vary slightly because the Moon 's orbit is rather elliptical , so the satellite 's orbital speed is not constant . The descriptor waxing is used for an intermediate phase when the Moon 's apparent shape is thickening , from new to full moon , and waning when the shape is thinning . </P> <P> The eight principal and intermediate phases are given the following names , in sequential order : </P> <Table> Principal and intermediate phases of the Moon <Tr> <Th> Phase </Th> <Th> Northern Hemisphere </Th> <Th> Southern Hemisphere </Th> <Th> Visibility </Th> <Th> Mid-phase standard time </Th> <Th> Average moonrise time </Th> <Th> Average moonset time </Th> <Th> Northern Hemisphere </Th> <Th> Southern Hemisphere </Th> <Th> Photograph ( view from Northern Hemisphere ) </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> New moon </Th> <Td colspan="2"> Disc completely in Sun 's shadow ( lit by earthshine only ) </Td> <Td> Invisible ( too close to Sun ) </Td> <Td> Midday </Td> <Td> 6 am </Td> <Td> 6 pm </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Not visible </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Waxing crescent </Th> <Td> Right side , 1 -- 49 % lit disc </Td> <Td> Left side , 1 -- 49 % lit disc </Td> <Td> Late morning to post-dusk </Td> <Td> 3 pm </Td> <Td> 9 am </Td> <Td> 9 pm </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> First quarter </Th> <Td> Right side , 50 % lit disc </Td> <Td> Left side , 50 % lit disc </Td> <Td> Afternoon and early evening </Td> <Td> 6 pm </Td> <Td> Midday </Td> <Td> Midnight </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Waxing gibbous </Th> <Td> Right side , 51 -- 99 % lit disc </Td> <Td> Left side , 51 -- 99 % lit disc </Td> <Td> Late afternoon and most of night </Td> <Td> 9 pm </Td> <Td> 3 pm </Td> <Td> 3 am </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Full moon </Th> <Td colspan="2"> Completely illuminated disc </Td> <Td> Sunset to sunrise ( all night ) </Td> <Td> Midnight </Td> <Td> 6 pm </Td> <Td> 6 am </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Waning gibbous </Th> <Td> Left side , 99 -- 51 % lit disc </Td> <Td> Right side , 99 -- 51 % lit disc </Td> <Td> Most of night and early morning </Td> <Td> 3 am </Td> <Td> 9 pm </Td> <Td> 9

is formed on the continental plate , above the location of the downgoing oceanic slab . The volcanic arc is the surface expression of the magma that is generated by hydrous melting of the mantle above the downgoing slab . Hydrated minerals ( e.g. , phlogopite , lawsonite , amphibole ) within the oceanic lithosphere become unstable at certain depths due to increased temperature and pressure , causing the crystal structure of the hydrated minerals break down and release water . The buoyant fluids then rise into the asthenosphere , where they lower the melting temperature of the mantle and cause partial melting . These melts rise to the surface and are the source of some of the most explosive volcanism on Earth because of their high volumes of extremely pressurized gases . </P> <P> When two plates with oceanic crust converge , they typically create an island arc as one plate is subducted below the other . The arc is formed from volcanoes which erupt through the overriding plate as the descending plate melts below it . The arc shape occurs because of the spherical surface of the earth ( nick the peel of an orange with a knife and note the arc formed by the straight - edge of the knife ) . A deep oceanic trench is located in front of such arcs where the descending slab dips downward , such as the Mariana Trench near the Mariana Islands . </P> <H2> Back arc basins ( edit ) </H2> See also : Back - arc region <P> Some convergent margins have zones of active seafloor spreading behind the island arc , known as back - arc basins . When one plate is composed of oceanic lithosphere and the other is composed of continental lithosphere , the denser oceanic plate is subducted , often forming an orogenic belt and associated mountain range . This type of convergent boundary is similar to the Andes or the Cascade Range in North America . </P> <H2> Oceanic trenches ( edit ) </H2> <P> An oceanic trench is found where the denser plate is subducted underneath the other plate . There is water in the rocks of the oceanic plate ( because they are underwater ) , and as this plate moves further down into the subduction zone , much of the water contained in the plate is squeezed out when the plate begins to subduct . However , the recrystallization of ocean floor rocks , such as serpentinite , which are unstable in the upper mantle , recrystallize into olivine , causing dehydration through loss of hydroxyl groups . This addition of water to the mantle causes partial melting of the mantle , generating magma , which then rises , and which normally results in volcanoes .

The pump intake is either connected to the public underground water supply piping , or a static water source ( e.g. , tank , reservoir , lake ) . The pump provides water flow at a higher pressure to the sprinkler system risers and hose standpipes . A fire pump is tested and listed for its use specifically for fire service by a third - party testing and listing agency , such as UL or FM Global . The main code that governs fire pump installations in North America is the National Fire Protection Association 's NFPA 20 Standard for the Installation of Stationary Fire Pumps for Fire Protection . </P> <P> Fire pumps function either by an electric motor or a diesel engine , or , occasionally a steam turbine . If the local building code requires power independent of the local electric power grid , a pump using an electric motor may utilize , when connected via a listed transfer switch , the installation of an emergency generator . </P> <P> The fire pump starts when the pressure in the fire sprinkler system drops below a threshold . The sprinkler system pressure drops significantly when one or more fire sprinklers are exposed to heat above their design temperature , and opens , releasing water . Alternately , other fire hoses reels or other firefighting connections are opened , causing a pressure drop in the fire fighting main . </P> <P> Fire pumps are needed when the local municipal water system can not provide sufficient pressure to meet the hydraulic design requirements of the fire sprinkler system . This usually occurs if the building is very tall , such as in high - rise buildings , or in systems that require a relatively high terminal pressure at the fire sprinkler in order to provide a large volume of water , such as in storage warehouses . Fire pumps are also needed if fire protection water supply is provided from a ground level water storage tank . </P> <P> Types of pumps used for fire service include : horizontal split case , vertical split case , vertical inline , vertical turbine , and end suction . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Fire Pumps , Circulation Relief Valve </Li> <Li> 2 Jockey pump <Ul> <Li> 2.1 In the U.S. </Li> <Li> 2.2 In India </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 References </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Fire pumps , circulation relief valve ( edit ) </H2> <P> Each pump shall have a circulation relief valve listed for the fire pump service installed and set below the shutoff pressure at minimum expected suction pressure . Exception : This rule shall not apply to engine - driven pumps for which engine cooling water is taken from the pump discharge . </P> <H2> Jockey pump ( edit ) </H2> <P> A jockey pump is a small pump connected to a fire sprinkler system and is intended to maintain pressure in a fire protection piping system to an artificially high level so that the operation of a single fire sprinkler will cause a pressure drop which will be sensed by the fire pump automatic controller , causing the fire pump to start . The jockey pump is essentially a portion of the fire pump 's control system . A jockey pump is sized for a flow less than the flow to one sprinkler in order to ensure a system pressure drop . Jockey pumps are typically small multistage centrifugal pumps , and do not have to be listed or certified for fire system application . The control equipment for jockey pumps may however carry approvals . Jockey pumps should be sized for 3 % of the flow of the main fire pump and to provide 10psi more pressure than the main fire pump ( As per Code IS 15105 : 2002 ) </P> <H3> In the U.S. ( edit ) </H3> <P> The application of a jockey pump in a fire protection system is provided by NFPA 20 . They are inspected per NFPA 25 `` Inspection and Testing of Water - Based Fire Protection Systems '' . </P> <H3> In India ( edit ) </H3> <P> In India , the pump manufacturers generally adhere to the TAC ( Tariff Advisory Committee ) guidelines , although pump manufacturers also obtain listings with UL or FM Global .

When race officials are ready to open pit lane , a green light will come on in the rear window of the safety car . One lap before a green flag , the pace car will shut off its lights to signal drivers to line up double file . </P> <P> Unlike most series in motorsport , owing to NASCAR 's short - track roots , each track usually offers their own safety car , typically from the manufacturer , but in recent years , it has been a local dealer or association of regional dealerships - provided Safety car . Tracks that use Toyota safety cars will use a Toyota Camry Hybrid , while Ford tracks will use a Ford Mustang , while Chevrolet tracks use a Chevrolet Camaro and most Dodge tracks use a Dodge Challenger . If a manufacturer is promoting a new vehicle , they will often use the new car instead of the standard - specification safety car . </P> <P> For the Camping World Truck Series , often the safety car is a pickup truck , as the series races pickup trucks . Tracks affiliated with a local or regional Chevrolet dealership will use a Chevrolet Silverado , while Chrysler dealership affiliated tracks will use a Ram 1500 . Ford - affiliated tracks will often use the F - Series , but Toyota - affiliated tracks are less likely to use the Toyota Tundra , but prefer marketing the Camry Hybrid . However , Ford and Toyota manufacturer sponsored tracks will prefer the Mustang and Camry , respectively , instead of a truck , and occasionally , pickup trucks have been used as pace vehicles for Sprint Cup and Xfinity races . </P> <P> Since NASCAR does not allow speedometers or electronic speed limiting devices , the pace car circles the track at pit road speed during the warm - up laps . This allows each driver to note the RPM at which pit road speed is maintained . Drivers exceeding that speed on pit road will be penalized , typically a `` drive - through '' or `` stop and go '' penalty , costing them valuable track position . </P> The pace car for the 2011 Daytona 500 , a Chevrolet Camaro . <P> Since mid-2004 , NASCAR official Brett Bodine has driven the vehicle during official race functions during Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series races . Other famous NASCAR pace car drivers include Robert `` Buster '' Auton and Elmo Langley . </P> <P> At many races , NASCAR has an honorary pace car driver that actually drives a car during the parade laps . Depending on the drivers skill , some drivers are allowed to pace the field right up to the dropping of the green flag . Some famous drivers have been Jay Leno , Richard Hammond , Luke Wilson , Rob Gronkowski , Guy Fieri and many others . </P> <P> The beneficiary rule ( informally known as the `` lucky dog '' rule ) states once the safety car is deployed , the first car not on the lead lap will regain a lap . The Beneficiary will regain his lap once pit road opens . Bodine will signal that car to pass him through radio contact between NASCAR and that team . The free pass car must pit with the lapped cars . </P> <P> In 2009 , NASCAR introduced a new `` Double - file restart '' rule that lines the field two cars on each row on every restart , similar to the start of the race , instead of lead - lap cars on the outside and lapped cars on the inside . Also , the `` wave - around '' rule , similar to what is enforced in the Indy Racing League was adopted to ensure the first car on the restart is the leader , and ensure there are no lapped cars ahead of the leader . </P> <H2> Incidents with safety cars and other course cars ( edit ) </H2> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> This section needs additional citations for verification .

The song 's inspiration was the experience Rea 's younger sister Paula had had some years previously of being devastated at losing her first boyfriend , `` Fool ... '' 's lyrics being the advice ( real or imagined ) with which Rea had responded to his sister 's experience . Rea would recall that he had written `` Fool ... '' as a song which Al Green might record : ( quote :) `` I 'd always seen it as a Memphis ( soul ) song ( but ) I never had the chance to voice my opinion about what I thought about the production '' of his own recording of the song of which Rea has elsewhere stated : `` ( It was in the ) wrong key . It ended up being this huge California thing ( see California Sound ) . It 's the only track I never played guitar on which tells you something about the spirit of it . On top of that , it was just a huge hit . So there was nothing I could do . It was like : ' This is not me ! ' '' Rea did play keyboards on `` Fool ... '' with the track 's background vocals provided by Read and the Mill 's assistant engineer Stuart Epps . </P> <P> Unsuccessful in its initial UK single release in March 1978 , `` Fool ... '' was afforded a June 1978 release in the US where it entered the Top 40 of the Hot 100 singles chart in Billboard magazine in July 1978 to reach a # 12 peak on the Hot 100 dated 16 September 1978 , then being in the second week of a three - week tenure at # 1 on the Billboard Easy Listening chart . On the strength its US success Rea was invited to perform `` Fool ... '' on the 28 September 1978 TOTP broadcast which evidently facilitated a belated UK chart run for the single with a 28 October 1978 peak of # 30 . </P> <P> The considerable success of `` Fool ... '' particularly in the US was evidently lost on Rea who recalls being dejected during the 1978 Yuletide overnight drive

The film stars Humphrey Bogart , Ingrid Bergman , and Paul Henreid ; it also features Claude Rains , Conrad Veidt , Sydney Greenstreet , Peter Lorre , and Dooley Wilson . Set during World War II , it focuses on an American expatriate who must choose between his love for a woman and helping her and her husband , a Czech Resistance leader , escape from the Vichy - controlled city of Casablanca to continue his fight against the Nazis . </P> <P> Story editor Irene Diamond convinced producer Hal B. Wallis to purchase the film rights to the play in January 1942 . Brothers Julius and Philip G. Epstein were initially assigned to write the script . However , despite studio resistance , they left to work on Frank Capra 's Why We Fight series early in 1942 . Howard E. Koch was assigned to the screenplay until the Epsteins returned a month later . Principal photography began on May 25 , 1942 , ending on August 3 ; the film was shot entirely at Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank , California with the exception of one sequence at Van Nuys Airport in Van Nuys , Los Angeles . </P> <P> Although Casablanca was an A-list film with established stars and first - rate writers , no one involved with its production expected it to be anything out of the ordinary , just one of the hundreds of pictures produced by Hollywood every year . Casablanca was rushed into release to take advantage of the publicity from the Allied invasion of North Africa a few weeks earlier . It had its world premiere on November 26 , 1942 , in New York City and was released nationally in the United States on January 23 , 1943 . The film was a solid if unspectacular success in its initial run . </P> <P> Exceeding expectations , Casablanca went on to win the Academy Award for Best Picture , while Curtiz was selected as Best Director and the Epsteins and Koch were honored for writing the Best Adapted Screenplay -- and gradually its reputation grew . Its lead characters , memorable lines , and pervasive theme song have all become iconic and the film consistently ranks near the top of lists of the greatest films in history . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Plot </Li> <Li> 2 Cast </Li> <Li> 3 Production <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Writing </Li> <Li> 3.2 Direction </Li> <Li> 3.3 Cinematography </Li> <Li> 3.4 Music </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Release </Li> <Li> 5 Reception <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Initial response </Li> <Li> 5.2 Lasting influence </Li> <Li> 5.3 Influence on later works </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 Interpretation </Li> <Li> 7 Awards and honors </Li> <Li> 8 Home media releases </Li> <Li> 9 Sequels and other versions <Ul> <Li> 9.1 Colorization </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 10 Anecdotes and inaccuracies </Li> <Li> 11 References </Li> <Li> 12 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Plot ( edit ) </H2> <P> In December 1941 , American expatriate Rick Blaine owns an upscale nightclub and gambling den in Casablanca . `` Rick 's Café Américain '' attracts a varied clientele , including Vichy French and German officials , refugees desperate to reach the still - neutral United States , and those who prey on them .

damage . As it is made of vibranium , it is able to absorb all kinetic energy and transfers very little energy from each impact , meaning Captain America does not feel recoil or transferred impact forces from blocking attacks . These physical properties also means the shield can bounce off of most smooth surfaces , ricocheting multiple times with minimal loss in aerodynamic stability or velocity . The shield can also absorb the kinetic impact of a fall , allowing Captain America to land safely even when jumping off of several stories , as can be seen in Captain America : Winter Soldier movie when he escaped from the S.H.I.E.L.D. 's STRIKE squad by jumping off an elevator . </P> <H3> Ricochet ballistics ( edit ) </H3> <P> A common misconception is that the shield can `` magically '' return to Captain America . The `` superhuman serum '' that enhanced Captain America 's physical attributes also improved his mental faculties -- such as cognition , perception , balance , aim , and reflexes -- to near genius - level . This allows him to instantly calculate ballistic - physics and predict the probable trajectory of objects in motion . This makes him a perfect shot . He can dodge or deflect bullets with his shield without collateral ricochet to civilians , to calculate where or how the shield will bounce and when it will return to his location , or trip a running person to cause them to fall into a specific position . In Avengers : Age of Ultron , he pulls the shield back to him after it is stuck , but this is through an electromagnet fastened on his arm . After his memories are altered to make him believe that he is a Hydra sleeper agent , Rogers uses his precise knowledge of the shield to put Sam Wilson , its current wielder , in a position where he will fail to save a senator from Flag - Smasher by arranging for Wilson to be forced to throw the shield in a manner that Rogers knows from his own experience will miss its target by mere millimetres , as part of his agenda to undermine Sam 's status as Captain America . </P> <H2> Original shield ( edit ) </H2> New York Comic Art Convention program with Joe Simon 's original 1940 sketch of Captain America . <P> In his debut , Captain America ( secretly U.S. Army Private Steve Rogers ) is equipped with a triangular , badge - shaped shield made from vibranium . After complaints by rival comic - book publisher MLJ that the design was too similar to that of its own patriotic hero the Shield , Timely Comics replaced the triangular shield with a disc - shaped one . </P> <P> While the origin and fate of the original shield were not described in the original comics from the 1940s , the shield 's fate was revealed decades later in 2001 through a retconned story . According to the tale , King T'Chaka of the African nation Wakanda met Captain America in early 1941 and gave him a second sample of vibranium , an alien metal with unique vibration absorption properties and found only in Wakanda and the Savage Land . The new Vibranium sample was used to make Captain America 's circular shield and his triangular one was retired . </P> <P> Captain America received a second triangular shield that he used until given his disc - shaped shield , which was personally presented to him by President Franklin Roosevelt . This second triangular shield would be kept in storage with Rogers ' other personal effects after the war . It was recovered at some point after Rogers joined the superhero team the Avengers in The Avengers # 4 , and was kept at Avengers Mansion . It was destroyed by the supervillain Mr. Hyde during a raid on the mansion by Baron Zemo 's Masters of Evil , and later `` plucked from time '' and restored by Zemo in Thunderbolts # 105 ( Oct. 2006 ) . The shield ( along with other sentimental items thought destroyed ) was returned to Captain America . A third triangular shield is kept in the Smithsonian Institution . It was used by Captain America when he foiled a terrorist attack on the museum itself after the loss of his usual shield ; it was then given to him in gratitude . This shield is destroyed several issues later by a Kree alien warrior . </P> <P> The shield destroyed by Hydra and restored by Zemo was eventually passed on to Elijah Bradley , the teenage hero known as the Patriot and leader of the Young Avengers . </P> <H3> Revised history ( edit ) </H3> <P> In 2010 , the history of the original shield was revised . In the limited series Captain America / Black Panther : Flags of Our Fathers , Captain America , Sergeant Nick Fury and the Howling Commandos meet Azzari ( grandfather of T'Challa ) -- the Black Panther and king of Wakanda during World War II . Aided by Wakandan military forces , they successfully repel a series of Nazi assaults led by the Red Skull and Baron Strucker . During the battle , the Red Skull ( wearing a battle - suit ) crushes the triangular shield , and Captain America uses a circular vibranium shield provided by T'Chaka to incapacitate the Skull . The weapon serves as the inspiration for the circular shield that the super-soldier begins using upon his return to America , and the encounter marks the beginning of friendly relations between the United States and Wakanda . </P> <H2> Circular shield ( edit ) </H2> <P> The circular shield most associated with Captain America made its debut in Captain America Comics # 2 ( April 1941 ) . A concavo - convex metal disc approximately 2.5 feet ( 0.76 m ) in diameter , is indestructible and has remained his most constant shield over the decades . </P> <P> In Captain America

The chain was originally owned by Radio Shack 's American parent company Tandy Corporation , but was spun off in June 1986 , along with the rest of Tandy 's international operations , as InterTAN . A licensing agreement with what became RadioShack Corporation allowed InterTAN to continue to use the chain 's name and logo . InterTAN abandoned its non-profitable West German stores in 1987 , left Belgium and France in 1993 , sold its British stores to Carphone Warehouse in 1999 and sold its Australian stores to Woolworth subsidiary Dick Smith Electronics in 2002 , leaving just the Canadian Radio Shack , Battery Plus and Rogers Plus stores . </P> <P> In May 2004 , InterTAN was acquired by Circuit City . One week after the acquisition was completed , RadioShack Corporation filed a lawsuit in the 352nd Judicial District Court in Tarrant County , Texas to end the licensing agreement . RadioShack Corporation claimed that InterTAN had breached the terms of their agreement . On March 24 , 2005 , the district court judge ruled in favour of RadioShack and cancelled the agreement . The ruling prohibited InterTAN from using the brand name on its stores or in any of its products , packaging , and advertising after June 30 , 2005 . </P> <P> On April 26 , 2005 , Circuit City announced that the stores would be renamed The Source by Circuit City ( La Source par Circuit City in Quebec ) . The rebranding process was completed in the majority of the chain 's Canadian stores by July 1 , 2005 . The chain also introduced new house brands , including Nexxtech and Centrios , in place of RadioShack store brands . </P> <P> In February 2007 , The Source announced it would close down 62 low volume stores across Canada . On March 30 , 2007 , Circuit City announced to its shareholders that it was seeking options including selling off the InterTAN / The Source subsidiary to cut losses . On November 10 , 2008 , InterTAN sought protection from its creditors , after Circuit City filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy . </P> <P> Circuit City announced on January 16 , 2009 , that its namesake U.S. stores would be liquidated . The Source was not affected by the announcement , and a process followed to sell the Canadian operations as a going concern . </P> <P> On March 2 , 2009 , Canadian telecommunications firm Bell Canada announced it would acquire The Source and continue to operate it as an independent division . The acquisition was completed July 1 for the final purchase price of $135 million US , following which the chain removed the `` by Circuit City '' from its name . Prior to January 2010 , the stores sold mobile phone services from Bell 's main competitor , Rogers Wireless : at that point , the chain began to exclusively market Bell - owned wireless ( including value brand Virgin Mobile ) , television , and internet services . </P> <P> The Source continues to sell a full array of consumer electronics products , . </P> <H2> Products ( edit ) </H2> <P> The Source stocks a wide array of products .

He was in direct talks with Saddam Hussein and involved in one way or another on the Anita Hill - Clarence Thomas controversy , moving the Rodney King trial to Simi Valley , keeping the US government from interfering in the independence of Bosnia - Herzegovina , the Academy Awards nominations , keeping the Buffalo Bills from ever winning the Super Bowl , drugging the Soviet goalkeeper Vladislav Tretiak before the Miracle on Ice , and executing extraterrestrials that survived landing on American soil . </P> <P> Nevertheless , X-Files writer Frank Spotnitz , has stated that this version of events is only one possibility and is not accepted canon . </P> <H3> `` My Struggle III '' ( edit ) </H3> <P> In the eleventh - season episode `` My Struggle III , '' the Cigarette - Smoking Man reveals his name to be Carl Gerhard Busch ( the name of series creator Chris Carter 's grandfather ) . </P> <H3> Other episodes ( edit ) </H3> <P> In his first appearance in the series , he oversees FBI agent Dana Scully 's ( Gillian Anderson ) briefing and debriefing , and later disposes of evidence Fox Mulder ( David Duchovny ) and Scully had brought back from their investigation of an alien abduction .

In `` One Son '' , Jeffrey finds out that his father , the Smoking Man , forced his mother Cassandra to undergo medical treatments that led to several nervous breakdowns during his childhood years . When the Smoking Man finds out , he seemingly kills Jeffrey . Knowing of the colonization plan , the Alien rebels return to Earth to try to persuade the Syndicate to join their side against their war with the Colonists . Not believing in the strength of the Alien rebels , the Syndicate members meet at El Rico Air Base to be transported to a spaceship to survive the colonization . However , the rebels appear instead of the Colonists and kill all remaining chief members of the Syndicate . Together with Fowley , the Smoking Man escapes the destruction of the Syndicate . Later in the sixth season , there is more evidence that suggested that the Smoking Man is Mulder 's biological father . Eventually in `` The Sixth Extinction II : Amor Fati '' , Fowley comes in disagreement with him . Because of his plans to kill Mulder , Fowley helps Scully in her investigation to locate Mulder , which leads to her death . After the destruction of the Syndicate , the Smoking Man starts to operate as he wishes . However , his cancer resurfaces , and he begins using a wheelchair and has a tracheotomy . In the end , Alex Krycek and Marita Covarrubias betray him in the episode `` Requiem '' , throwing him down a flight of stairs , where they presume him to be dead . </P> <P> Until the ninth season episode `` William '' , the Smoking Man is presumed dead . It is learned that his attempted murder of his son failed , which led him to subject his son to terrible experiments . In the series finale , `` The Truth '' , Mulder and Scully travel through remote New Mexico and reach a pueblo where a `` wise man '' reputedly lives : he is , in fact , the Smoking Man . His condition has worsened since his disappearance , and he lives a primitive life in hiding from the `` New '' Syndicate . After taunting Mulder and Scully , he reveals to Scully what Mulder already knew , that the alien re-colonization of Earth is set for December 22 , 2012 . Shortly after , Smoking Man is again apparently killed by a rocket shot from a helicopter ordered by Knowle Rohrer . </P> <P> For the next 14 years , he is presumed dead . However , he appears again alive but seriously burned and disfigured at the end of `` My Struggle '' ( 2016 ) , the first episode of The X-Files miniseries , stating that the X-Files have been reopened . In the season finale , `` My Struggle II '' , the Smoking Man puts into motion the conspiracy he had been working on all these years , releasing chemtrails into the atmosphere which trigger immune system breakdowns throughout the American population , which had been infected by the Spartan virus through mandatory flu vaccinations . Out of fondness for Mulder , he offers him the cure to the disease , but is rebuffed . The United States is thrown into chaos as the Syndicate plan for depopulation gets underway . However in `` My Struggle III '' , this is shown to be a vision experienced by Scully . It is revealed that the Smoking Man is trying to find Scully 's son William in order to fulfill his plans , and that he is in conflict with a group lead by two other surviving Syndicate members , who want the Smoking Man dead in order to carry out their own agenda . The Smoking Man approaches Walter Skinner to make him

, Columella ( 4 -- 70 AD ) and Palladius ( 4th century AD ) . Roman encyclopaedist Pliny the Elder ( 23 -- 79 AD ) deals with plants in Books 12 to 26 of his 37 - volume highly influential work Naturalis Historia in which he frequently quotes Theophrastus but with a lack of botanical insight although he does , nevertheless , draw a distinction between true botany on the one hand , and farming and medicine on the other . It is estimated that at the time of the Roman Empire between 1300 and 1400 plants had been recorded in the West . </P> <H2> Medieval knowledge ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Medicinal plants of the early Middle Ages ( edit ) </H3> Further information : Herbalism , Chinese medicine , Byzantine medicine , and Islamic medicine An Arabic copy of Avicenna 's Canon of Medicine dated 1593 <P> In Western Europe , after Theophrastus , botany passed through a bleak period of 1800 years when little progress was made and , indeed , many of the early insights were lost . As Europe entered the Middle Ages ( 5th to 15th centuries ) , a period of disorganised feudalism and indifference to learning , China , India and the Arab world enjoyed a golden age . Chinese philosophy had followed a similar path to that of the ancient Greeks . The Chinese dictionary - encyclopaedia Erh Ya probably dates from about 300 BC and describes about 334 plants classed as trees or shrubs , each with a common name and illustration . Between 100 and 1700 AD many new works on pharmaceutical botany were produced including encyclopaedic accounts and treatises compiled for the Chinese imperial court . These were free of superstition and myth with carefully researched descriptions and nomenclature ; they included cultivation information and notes on economic and medicinal uses -- and even elaborate monographs on ornamental plants . But there was no experimental method and no analysis of the plant sexual system , nutrition , or anatomy . </P> <P> The 400 - year period from the 9th to 13th centuries AD was the Islamic Renaissance , a time when Islamic culture and science thrived . Greco - Roman texts were preserved , copied and extended although new texts always emphasised the medicinal aspects of plants . Kurdish biologist Ābu Ḥanīfah Āḥmad ibn Dawūd Dīnawarī ( 828 -- 896 AD ) is known as the founder of Arabic botany ; his Kitâb al - nabât ( ' Book of Plants ' ) describes 637 species , discussing plant development from germination to senescence and including details of flowers and fruits . The Mutazilite philosopher and physician Ibn Sina ( Avicenna ) ( c. 980 -- 1037 AD ) was another influential figure , his The Canon of Medicine being a landmark in the history of medicine treasured until the Enlightenment . </P> <P> In India simple artificial plant classification systems of the Rigveda , Atharvaveda and Taittiriya Samhita became more botanical with the work of Parashara ( c. 400 -- c. 500 AD ) , the author of Vṛksayurveda ( the science of life of trees ) . He made close observations of cells and leaves and divided plants into Dvimatrka ( Dicotyledons ) and Ekamatrka ( Monocotyledons ) . The dicotyledons were further classified into groupings ( ganas ) akin to modern floral families : Samiganiya ( Fabaceae ) , Puplikagalniya ( Rutaceae ) , Svastikaganiya ( Cruciferae ) , Tripuspaganiya ( Cucurbitaceae ) , Mallikaganiya ( Apocynaceae ) , and Kurcapuspaganiya ( Asteraceae ) . Important medieval Indian works of plant physiology include the Prthviniraparyam of Udayana , Nyayavindutika of Dharmottara , Saddarsana - samuccaya of Gunaratna , and Upaskara of Sankaramisra . </P> <H3> The Silk Road ( edit ) </H3> <P> Following the fall of Constantinople ( 1453 ) , the newly expanded Ottoman Empire welcomed European embassies in its capital , which in turn became the sources of plants from those regions to the east which traded with the empire . In the following century twenty times as many plants entered Europe along the Silk Road as had been transported in the previous two thousand years , mainly as bulbs . Others were acquired primarily for their alleged medicinal value . Initially Italy benefited from this new knowledge , especially Venice , which traded extensively with the East . From there these new plants rapidly spread to the rest of Western Europe . By the middle of the sixteenth century there was already a flourishing export trade of various bulbs from Turkey to Europe . </P> <H3> The age of herbals ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Herbal Dioscorides ' , De Materia Medica , Byzantium , 15th century . <P> In the European Middle Ages of the 15th and 16th centuries the lives of European citizens were based around agriculture but when printing arrived , with movable type and woodcut illustrations , it was not treatises on agriculture that were published , but lists of medicinal plants with descriptions of their properties or `` virtues '' . These first plant books , known as herbals showed that botany was still a part of medicine , as it had been for most of ancient history . Authors of herbals were often curators of university gardens , and most herbals were derivative compilations of classic texts , especially De Materia Medica . However , the need for accurate and detailed plant descriptions meant that some herbals were more botanical than medicinal . German Otto Brunfels 's ( 1464 -- 1534 ) Herbarum Vivae Icones ( 1530 ) contained descriptions of about 47 species new to science combined with accurate illustrations . His fellow countryman Hieronymus Bock 's ( 1498 -- 1554 ) Kreutterbuch of 1539 described plants he found in nearby woods and fields and these were illustrated in the 1546 edition . However , it was Valerius Cordus ( 1515 -- 1544 ) who pioneered the formal botanical description that detailed both flowers and fruits , some anatomy including the number
