The new name honors the French explorer and adventurer Antoine Laumet de La Mothe , sieur de Cadillac . In 1688 , De la Mothe requested and received from the Governor of New France a parcel of land in an area known as Donaquec which included part of the Donaquec River ( now the Union River ) and the island of Mount Desert in the present - day U.S. state of Maine . Antoine Laumet de La Mothe , a shameless self - promoter who had already appropriated the `` de la Mothe '' portion of his name from a local nobleman in his native Picardy , thereafter referred to himself as Antoine de la Mothe , sieur de Cadillac , Donaquec , and Mount Desert . </P> <P> From 1883 until 1893 the Green Mountain Cog Railway ran to the summit to take visitors to the Green Mountain Hotel on the summit . The hotel was burned down in 1895 . Also in 1895 , the cog train was sold and moved to the Mount Washington Cog Railway in New Hampshire . </P> <H2> Overview ( edit ) </H2> President Obama and the First Family at the summit of Cadillac Mountain on July 16 , 2010 . <P> There are various hiking trails to the summit of Cadillac Mountain , some more challenging than others .

However , Cadillac only sees the first sunrise in the fall and winter , when the sun rises south of due east .

In this exact form , it has been the official flag of Hungary since May 23 , 1957 . The flag 's form originates from national republican movements of the 18th and 19th centuries , while its colours are from the Middle Ages . The current Hungarian tricolour flag is the same as the republican movement flag of the United Kingdom ( used since 1816 ) . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Current flag <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Evolution </Li> <Li> 1.2 Exact description and legislature </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Gallery <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Historical flags </Li> <Li> 2.2 Head of state standards </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 See also </Li> <Li> 4 Notes </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> <Li> 6 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Current flag ( edit ) </H2> <P> The nation of Hungary originated from the national freedom movement from before 1848 , which culminated in the Hungarian Revolution of 1848 . The revolution was not only in opposition against the monarchy but also the Habsburg Empire , as well as to form an independent republic . Accordingly , the Hungarian flag features a tricolour element , which is based upon the French flag , as a reflection of the ideas of the French revolution ; while red , white , and green are colours derived from the historical Hungarian coat of arms , which have essentially remained in the same form since the mid-15th century , with exception to some minor differences , and were marshalled from arms that first appeared in the late 12th and early 13th century as arms of the Árpáds , Hungary 's founding dynasty . The stripes are horizontal rather than vertical to prevent confusion with the Italian flag , which had also been designed after the French flag . According to other data , the recent form of the Hungarian tricolour had been already used from 1608 at the coronation of Mathias II of Hungary . </P> <P> Folklore of the romantic period attributed the colours to virtues : red for strength , white for faithfulness and green for hope . Alternatively , red for the blood spilled for the fatherland , white for freedom and green for the land , for the pastures of Hungary . The new constitution , which took effect on 1 January 2012 , makes the ex-post interpretation mentioned first official ( in the semi-official translation : strength ( erő ) , fidelity ( hűség ) and hope ( remény ) ) . </P> <H3> Evolution ( edit ) </H3> Hungarian national colors on the wall , Hungarian coronation of Leopold II in Pozsony in 1790 , 58 years before the Hungarian revolution <P> As described above , the red - white - green tricolour emerged as a sign of national sovereignty during the 1848 -- 1849 revolution against the Habsburgs . After the revolution was defeated , the tricolour flag was prohibited by the Austrian Emperor ; after the Compromise of 1867 , however , the tricolour became not only legal , but also the official flag of Hungary . The flag had the so - called minor arms ( also known as the Kossuth coat of arms ) of Hungary with archangels as supporters were used as a badge on the flag . This configuration was used until the end of the Habsburg Empire in 1918 . </P> <P> After the fall of the Habsburg Empire , the years 1918 to 1920 were highly turbulent , and several hard - to - trace minor changes took place . The red - green - white tricolour stayed the same , but small differences emerged in terms of the badge . A short interlude and exception was the 1919 Hungarian Soviet Republic , which lasted for four - and - a-half months ; it used a solid red banner . </P> <P> It seems that from 1920 -- 1944 or 1945 the tricolour displayed the minor arms of Hungary , but the version without | The country whose flag is red, white, and green is | [

The New Day then successful retained their title against The Lucha Dragons on the special December 22 episode of Super SmackDown Live ! and against The Usos in January 2016 at the Royal Rumble event . </P> Kingston , Big E and Woods inducting The Fabulous Freebirds into the WWE Hall of Fame in April 2016 The New Day appearing on the Raw after WrestleMania 32 <P> At Fastlane on February 21 , The New Day began mocking The League of Nations ( Sheamus , Alberto Del Rio Rusev and King Barrett ) , calling them the `` league of booty '' . They then continued to mock The League of Nations in various segments and skits while simultaneously feuding with other teams and turning into fan favorites in the process . The New Day retained their title both at Roadblock ( against Sheamus and Barrett ) on March 12 and the following night on Raw ( against Del Rio and Rusev ) , but were attacked after the match . This led to a six - man non-title tag team match between the two stables at WrestleMania 32 on April 3 , where The New Day was defeated , but Big E and Kingston retained their championship once again against Sheamus and Barrett the following night on Raw . At Payback on May 1 , the final match of the tournament to determine the number one contenders for the WWE Tag Team Championship between Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady and The Vaudevillains ( Aiden English and Simon Gotch ) ended in a no contest after Amore suffered a legitimate concussion during the match . As a result , The New Day faced The Vaudevillains for the WWE Tag Team Championship at Extreme Rules on May 22 , where they successfully retained their championship . On the May 30 episode of Raw , The New Day defeated The Vaudevillains in a non-title match via disqualification after they were attacked by Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson , sparking a feud between them . At Money in the Bank on June 19 , The New Day defeated Gallows and Anderson , The Vaudevillains and Enzo and Cass in a fatal - four way tag team match to retain the WWE Tag Team Championship and , as of that victory , they hold the record for the longest combined reign as a tag team . On the June 20 episode of Raw , The New Day confronted returning The Wyatt Family ( Bray Wyatt , Erick Rowan and Braun Strowman ) and interrupted Wyatt 's promo , thus starting a feud between the two teams that would lead to a non-title six - man tag team match at Battleground on July 24 , where they would lose . </P> The New Day making their entrance in September 2016 <P> During the 2016 WWE draft , The New Day were drafted to the Raw brand , making the WWE Tag Team Championship exclusive to the brand . In parallel to a lengthy feud with Gallows and Anderson for the title , The New Day became the longest reigning WWE Tag Team Champions in the title 's history , breaking the old record of 331 days previously set by Paul London and Brian Kendrick and , after the creation of the SmackDown Tag Team Championship for the SmackDown brand , became the last people to have held their championship as the sole tag team title in WWE and the first to hold it under its new name of Raw Tag Team Championship . The New Day would continue to successfully retain their championship against Gallows and Anderson in the following months , such as SummerSlam on August 21 , Clash of Champions on September 25 and the following night on Raw , ending their feud in the process . </P> <P> After their feud with Gallows and Anderson , The New Day began feuding with Cesaro and Sheamus and at Hell in a Cell on October 30 , The New Day were defeated by Cesaro and Sheamus via disqualification , but they managed to retain the title as a result . On the October 31 episode of Raw , The New Day revealed that they were made captain of Team Raw for the 10 - on - 10 Survivor Series Tag Team Elimination match at Survivor Series . At the event on November 20 , they made the first elimination , but were then eliminated themselves by The Usos . However , Team Raw still managed to win the match thanks to Cesaro and Sheamus . On the two following Raw episodes , The New Day successfully retained their title against Cesaro and Sheamus and then Gallows and Anderson . </P> <P> On the December 12 episode of Raw , after successfully defending their title in two successive triple threat tag team matches -- first against Cesaro and Sheamus and Gallows and Anderson , and then against the team of Chris Jericho and WWE Universal Champion Kevin Owens , and the team of Seth Rollins and United States Champion Roman Reigns -- The New Day broke Demolition 's 28 - year - old record to become the tag team to procure the longest single - run with any tag team championship in WWE history . Demolition held this record with WWE 's original World Tag Team Championship and still hold the specific record for that ( defunct ) version of the title . At Roadblock : End of the Line on December 18 , The New Day 's reign ended at 483 days after they lost the championship to Cesaro and Sheamus . On the December 26 episode of Raw , The New Day received a rematch for the title , but failed to reclaim the championship .

Barnum and his troupe perform a show at the circus . ( `` The Greatest Show '' ) In a flashback to Barnum 's childhood where he and his father Philo , a tailor , work for the Hallett family , and he becomes infatuated with their daughter , Charity . Though Charity is being sent to finishing school , Barnum reassures her they will not be separated . The two keep in touch through letters until they meet again in adulthood ( `` A Million Dreams '' ) , eventually marrying and raising two daughters , Caroline and Helen , in New York City ( `` A Million Dreams '' reprise ) . They live a humble life ; though Charity is happy , Barnum dreams of more . </P> <P> Barnum loses his job as a clerk at a shipping company after the company goes bankrupt . Taking a risky bet , he takes out a large loan from a bank , deceiving the bank into accepting his former employer 's lost ships as collateral . He uses this loan to buy Barnum 's American Museum in downtown Manhattan , an attraction showcasing various wax models . Initially , sales are slow ; on the suggestion of his children to showcase something `` alive '' , Barnum searches for `` freaks '' to serve as performers for his museum ( `` Come Alive '' ) . This attracts a large audience despite protests and poor reviews , prompting Barnum to rename his venture `` Barnum 's Circus '' . </P> <P> Searching for ways to further his reputation amongst the upper class , Barnum meets playwright Phillip Carlyle and convinces him to join his venture ( `` The Other Side '' ) . Carlyle is enchanted with Anne Wheeler , an African - American trapeze artist , but he hides his feelings . During a trip Carlyle arranged for Barnum and his troupe to meet Queen Victoria , Barnum meets Jenny Lind , a famed Swedish singer , whom he convinces to perform in America , with him serving as her manager .

In dry air at 0 ° C ( 32 ° F ) , the speed of sound is 331.2 metres per second ( 1,087 ft / s ; 1,192 km / h ; 741 mph ; 644 kn ) . At 20 ° C ( 68 ° F ) , the speed of sound is 343 metres per second ( 1,125 ft / s ; 1,235 km / h ; 767 mph ; 667 kn ) , or a kilometre in 2.91 s or a mile in 4.69 s . </P> <P> The speed of sound in an ideal gas depends only on its temperature and composition . The speed has a weak dependence on frequency and pressure in ordinary air , deviating slightly from ideal behavior . </P> <P> In common everyday speech , speed of sound refers to the speed of sound waves in air . However , the speed of sound varies from substance to substance : sound travels most slowly in gases ; it travels faster in liquids ; and faster still in solids . For example , ( as noted above ) , sound travels at 343 m / s in air ; it travels at 1,484 m / s in water ( 4.3 times as fast as in air ) ; and at 5,120 m / s in iron ( about 15 times as fast as in air ) . In an exceptionally stiff material such as diamond , sound travels at 12,000 metres per second ( 26,843 mph ) ; ( about 35 times as fast as in air ) which is around the maximum speed that sound will travel under normal conditions . </P> <P> Sound waves in solids are composed of compression waves ( just as in gases and liquids ) , and a different type of sound wave called a shear wave , which occurs only in solids . Shear waves in solids usually travel at different speeds , as exhibited in seismology . The speed of compression waves in solids is determined by the medium 's compressibility , shear modulus and density . The speed of shear waves is determined only by the solid material 's shear modulus and density . </P> <P> In fluid dynamics , the speed of sound in a fluid medium ( gas or liquid ) is used as a relative measure for the speed of an object moving through the medium . The ratio of the speed of an object to the speed of sound in the fluid is called the object 's Mach number . Objects moving at speeds greater than Mach 1 are said to be traveling at supersonic speeds . </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History </Li> <Li> 2 Basic concepts <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Compression and shear waves </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Equations </Li> <Li> 4 Dependence on the properties of the medium </Li> <Li> 5 Altitude variation and implications for atmospheric acoustics </Li> <Li> 6 Practical formula for dry air </Li> <Li> 7 Details <Ul> <Li> 7.1 Speed of sound in ideal gases and air </Li> <Li> 7.2 Effects due to wind shear </Li> <Li> 7.3 Tables </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 8 Effect of frequency and gas composition <Ul> <Li> 8.1 General physical considerations </Li> <Li> 8.2 Practical application to air </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 9 Mach number </Li> <Li> 10 Experimental methods <Ul> <Li> 10.1 Single - shot timing methods </Li> <Li> 10.2 Other methods </Li> <Li> 10.3 High - precision measurements in air </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 11 Non-gaseous media <Ul> <Li> 11.1 Speed of sound in solids <Ul> <Li> 11.1. 1 Three - dimensional solids </Li> <Li> 11.1. 2 One - dimensional solids </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 11.2 Speed of sound in liquids <Ul> <Li> 11.2. 1 Water </Li> <Li> 11.2. 2 Seawater </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 11.3 Speed of sound in plasma </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 12 Gradients </Li> <Li> 13 See also </Li> <Li> 14 References </Li> <Li> 15 External links </Li> </Ul> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <P> Sir Isaac Newton computed the speed of sound in air as 979 feet per second ( 298 m / s ) , which is too low by about 15 % , . Newton 's analysis was good save for neglecting the ( then unknown ) effect of rapidly - fluctuating temperature in a sound wave ( in modern terms , sound wave compression and expansion of air is an adiabatic process , not an isothermal process ) . This error was later rectified by Laplace . </P> <P> During the 17th century , there were several attempts to measure the speed of sound accurately , including attempts by Marin Mersenne in 1630 ( 1,380 Parisian feet per second ) , Pierre Gassendi in 1635 ( 1,473 Parisian feet per second ) and Robert Boyle ( 1,125 Parisian | Sound travels fastest in | [

Nevertheless , this is not completely successful and there are occasional difficulties for example in connection with parking fines and automatic speed cameras . </P> <Ul> <Li> Belgium ( until 2010 ) , Cyprus , Finland , Georgia ( until 2014 ) , Hungary , Lithuania , Malta , Sweden ( since 1974 ) , and Moldova ( since 2014 ) each use combinations of first three letters and then three digits . </Li> <Li> Bulgaria uses plate numbers in the form A ( A ) - 0000 - A ( A ) , i.e. one or two letters representing the region , then four digits , then one or two more letters . All letters used are intersection of Latin and Cyrillic alphabet , i.e. A , B , C , E , H , K , M , O , P , T , X and Y . </Li> <Li> Greece uses a combination of three letters ( which are the intersection of Latin and Greek alphabet , i.e. A , B , E , Z , H , I , K , M , N , O , P , T , Y , X in Greek alphabetic order ) and four numbers , in the form of AAA - 0000 , while Spain uses a four number - three letter combination , in the form of 0000 BBB ( vowels and some maybe confusing consonants , like Ñ and Q , are not used ) </Li> <Li> Denmark and Norway use two letters and five digits ( for trailers in Denmark two letters but just four digits ) . The plates look very similar , but Denmark has a red border around the plate . Use of the country code on the plate may mitigate this problem ( Norway began using the system on 1 November 2006 ) . Denmark has begun running out of combinations in this style and has now introduced combinations previously reserved for Faroe Islands for EU style number plates ( which will use different letters than non-EU style plates ) . </Li> <Li> The Netherlands and Portugal both use three groups of two characters ( letters or numbers ) in several sequences : AB - 12 - CD , 12 - 34 - AB , 12 - AB - 34 , AB - 12 - 34 , etc . However , Portuguese plates have a white background , while those of Netherlands ( after 1978 - 01 - 01 ) have a yellow one , though both countries also use white letters on blue plates for classic cars . Furthermore , newer plates on Dutch vehicles only contain consonants , to avoid coincidental abbreviations or words . Also some sensitive letter combinations , such as SS or SD , are not used . The combination ' AA ' is reserved for cars of the royal family . Dutch company registered bus , truck and / or minivan plates always start with a B or a V. Dutch taxis use blue registration plates . The number of new combinations ran out in 2008 . By now , new registered cars in the Netherlands use the following format of two digits - three letters - one digit ( 12 - ABC - 3 ) . </Li> <Li> Belgium used the sequence ABC - 123 between 1973 and 2008 . When these combinations ran out in 2008 , the inverse sequence 123 - ABC was adopted , with the first plate in the new series issued on June 25 , 2008 . With the introduction of the European format on November 15 , 2010 , a seven - character combination 1 - ABC - 234 is used and the previous 123 - ABC was discontinued . However , the six - character plates will remain valid and no date is set for their expiration yet . Since Belgian plates are linked to an owner rather than to a vehicle , these older plates are likely to remain in use for a considerable time . As a way to phase out the six - character plates , future vehicle subscriptions will only be possible on the seven - character plates . </Li> <Li> Luxembourg plates use two letters and four digits AB 1234 . Older series with only three digits ( AB 123 ) or all - numeric plates with up to five digits are no longer issued but are still in use . </Li> <Li> Current registrations allocated in Romania and the United Kingdom ( where the registration contains two digits ) are both of the form AB12 CDE ) . The Romanian rear plates are white whereas UK ones are yellow . There is also a difference in the spacing and the font . In 2015 , Bucharest , the capital of Romania , adopted the form B 123 AAA , three digits and three letters , because the number of cars had risen . </Li> <Li> Sweden . Until 1973 / 74 the Swedish pattern was one letter representing the län ( county ) where the car was first registered , followed by four or five digits . However , in the more populated län , a second letter became introduced over time . F.i. vehicles from southernmost county got the letter M + five digits , later also MA + five digits , MB + five digits etc . A problem was that the two northernmost counties had already been given two letters , the letter prefixes AC and BD , as the number of usable letters exceeded the number of counties . The ABC 123 system was introduced gradually from July 1973 until June 1974 . </Li> <Li> Slovakia uses AB 123CD and Croatia uses AB 123 - CD ( in both cases also other patterns are possible ) .

B snurposomes appear alone or attached to the Cajal bodies in the electron micrographs of the amphibian nuclei . IGCs function as storage sites for the splicing factors . </P> Paraspeckles Main article : Paraspeckle <P> Discovered by Fox et al. in 2002 , paraspeckles are irregularly shaped compartments in the nucleus ' interchromatin space . First documented in HeLa cells , where there are generally 10 -- 30 per nucleus , paraspeckles are now known to also exist in all human primary cells , transformed cell lines , and tissue sections . Their name is derived from their distribution in the nucleus ; the `` para '' is short for parallel and the `` speckles '' refers to the splicing speckles to which they are always in close proximity . </P> <P> Paraspeckles are dynamic structures that are altered in response to changes in cellular metabolic activity . They are transcription dependent and in the absence of RNA Pol II transcription , the paraspeckle disappears and all of its associated protein components ( PSP1 , p54nrb , PSP2 , CFI ( m ) 68 , and PSF ) form a crescent shaped perinucleolar cap in the nucleolus . This phenomenon is demonstrated during the cell cycle . In the cell cycle , paraspeckles are present during interphase and during all of mitosis except for telophase . During telophase , when the two daughter nuclei are formed , there is no RNA Pol II transcription so the protein components instead form a perinucleolar cap . </P> Perichromatin fibrils <P> Perichromatin fibrils are visible only under electron microscope . They are located next to the transcriptionally active chromatin and are hypothesized to be the sites of active pre-mRNA processing . </P> <P> Clastosome </P> <P> Clastosomes are small nuclear bodies ( 0.2 - 0.5 μm ) described as donut - shaped due to the peripheral capsule around these bodies . This name is derived from the Greek klastos , broken and soma , body . Clastosomes are not typically present in normal cells , making them hard to detect . They form under high proteolysis conditions within the nucleus and degrade once there is a decrease in activity or if cells are treated with proteasome inhibitors . The scarcity of clastosomes in cells indicates that they are not required for proteasome function . Osmotic stress has also been shown to cause the formation of clastosomes . These nuclear bodies contain catalytic and regulatory sub-units of the proteasome and its substrates , indicating that clastosomes are sites for degrading proteins . </P> <P> The Clastosome would be an important addition to the ' Cell Nucleus ' Wiki page because it plays a role in cell function . With further research , we may discover that this nuclear body has a more influential job in cell function than what is already known . </P> <H2> Function </H2> <P> The nucleus provides a site for genetic transcription that is segregated from the location of translation in the cytoplasm , allowing levels of gene regulation that are not available to prokaryotes . The main function of the cell nucleus is to control gene expression and mediate the replication of DNA during the cell cycle . </P> <P> The nucleus is an organelle found in eukaryotic cells . Inside its fully enclosed nuclear membrane , it contains the majority of the cell 's genetic material . This material is organized as DNA molecules , along with a variety of proteins , to form chromosomes . </P> <H3> Cell compartmentalization </H3> <P> The nuclear envelope allows the nucleus to control its contents , and separate them from the rest of the cytoplasm where necessary . This is important for controlling processes on either side of the nuclear membrane . In most cases where a cytoplasmic process needs to be restricted , a key participant is removed to the nucleus , where it interacts with transcription factors to downregulate the production of certain enzymes in the pathway . This regulatory mechanism occurs in the case of glycolysis , a cellular pathway for breaking down glucose to produce energy . Hexokinase is an enzyme responsible for the first the step of glycolysis , forming glucose - 6 - phosphate from glucose . At high concentrations of fructose - 6 - phosphate , a molecule made later from glucose - 6 - phosphate , a regulator protein removes hexokinase to the nucleus , where it forms a transcriptional repressor complex with nuclear proteins to reduce the expression of genes involved in glycolysis . </P> <P> In order to control which genes are being transcribed , the cell separates some transcription factor proteins responsible for regulating gene expression from physical access to the DNA until they are activated by other signaling pathways . This prevents even low levels of inappropriate gene expression . For example , in the case of NF - κB - controlled genes , which are involved in most inflammatory responses , transcription is induced in response to a signal pathway such as that initiated by the signaling molecule TNF - α , binds to a cell membrane receptor , resulting in the recruitment of signalling proteins , and eventually activating the transcription factor NF - κB . A nuclear localisation signal on the NF - κB protein allows it to be transported through the nuclear pore and into the nucleus , where it stimulates the transcription of the target genes . </P> <P> The compartmentalization allows the cell to prevent translation of unspliced mRNA . Eukaryotic mRNA contains introns that must be removed before being translated to produce functional proteins . The splicing is done inside the nucleus before the mRNA can be accessed by ribosomes for translation . Without the nucleus , ribosomes would translate newly transcribed ( unprocessed ) mRNA , resulting in malformed and nonfunctional proteins . </P> <H3> Gene expression </H3> Main article : Gene expression A micrograph of ongoing gene transcription of | The advantage of enclosing DNA material in the nucleus is that it provides | [

This turns out to be the first gay experience for the formerly straight Drew , who reveals he is married , tells Jack he loves him and then introduces him to his wife Angela . Jack is annoyed at that revelation , but later comes to relish it and he and Drew go at it in the bathroom . In the next episode , Jack and Drew start seeing each other secretly and Jack , nervous about screwing things up too soon , advises a reluctant Drew to hold off on coming out to Angela for the time being . He even supports the alibi of them being just guy friends by having Karen pose as his wife . However , Karen , reminded of her mother 's unhappiness in her marriage , outs both Jack and Drew in front of Angela , who is surprisingly supportive and arranges a coming out party for Drew , much to Jack 's distress . Jack admits to Drew that he fears missing out on other great men in his life , but when Karen reminds him of his fear of being old and lonely , which is even worse , he decides to give Drew another chance .

To prove his vote - getting ability , Kennedy challenged Minnesota Senator Hubert Humphrey , a liberal , in the Wisconsin primary . Although Kennedy defeated Humphrey in Wisconsin , the fact that his margin of victory came mostly from heavily Catholic areas left many party bosses unconvinced of Kennedy 's appeal to non-Catholic voters . Kennedy next faced Humphrey in the heavily Protestant state of West Virginia , where anti-Catholic bigotry was said to be widespread . Humphrey 's campaign was low on money and could not compete with the well - organized , well - financed Kennedy team . Kennedy 's attractive sisters and brothers combed the state looking for votes , leading Humphrey to complain that he `` felt like an independent merchant running against a chain store . '' On primary day , Kennedy crushed Humphrey with over 60 % of the vote . Humphrey withdrew from the race and Kennedy had gained the victory he needed to prove to the party 's bosses that a Catholic could win in a non-Catholic state .

As part of the Museum 's redevelopment project , both cars were relocated by specialist haulier from their position in the Museum 's Spirit of Speed Gallery to the new Biffa Award Land Speed Record Gallery which opened in 2015 . </P> <P> The car is 16.5 metres long and 3.7 metres wide and weighs nearly 10 tons . It had a total thrust of 223 kN ( approximately 50,000 pounds force , equivalent to around 110,000 brake horsepower ) . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Details </Li> <Li> 2 Legacy </Li> <Li> 3 Richard Noble -- Orange - Intel dispute </Li> <Li> 4 See also </Li> <Li> 5 Notes </Li> <Li> 6 References </Li> <Li> 7 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Details ( edit ) </H2> <P> The car was driven by Royal Air Force fighter pilot Wing Commander Andy Green in the Black Rock Desert in the state of Nevada . It was powered by two afterburning Rolls - Royce Spey turbofan engines , as used in the British version of the F - 4 Phantom II jet fighter . The car was 16.5 m ( 54 ft ) long , 3.7 m ( 12 ft ) wide and weighed 10.5 tons ( 10.7 t ) , and the twin engines developed a net thrust of 223 kN ( 50,000 lbf ) , a power output of 110,000 bhp ( 82MW ) , burning around 18 litres / second ( 4.0 Imperial gallons / s or 4.8 US gallons / s ) . Transformed into the usual terms for car mileages based on its maximum speed , the fuel consumption was about 550 l / 100 km ( 0.51 mpg ; 0.43 mpg ) . </P> <P> The record run in October 1997 was preceded by extensive test runs of the vehicle in autumn 1996 and spring 1997 in the Al - Jafr desert ( located in Ma'an Governorate ) in Jordan , a location unknown before for its capabilities as a test range for high speed land vehicles , with numerous advantages compared to the salt deserts of the Western United States . </P> <P> After the record was set , the World Motor Sport Council released the following message : </P> <Dl> <Dd> The World Motor Sport Council homologated the new world land speed records set by the team ThrustSSC of Richard Noble , driver Andy Green , on 15 October 1997 at Black Rock Desert , Nevada ( USA ) .

For companies with publicly trading stock , these responsibilities are typically much more rigorous and complex than for those of other types . </P> <P> Typically , the board chooses one of its members to be the chairman ( more usually now called the `` chair '' or `` chairperson '' ) , who holds whatever title is specified in the bylaws or articles of association . However , in membership organizations , the members elect the president of the organization and the president becomes the chair of the board , unless the bylaws say otherwise . </P> <H2> Directors ( edit ) </H2> <P> The directors of an organization are the persons who are members of its board . Several specific terms categorize directors by the presence or absence of their other relationships to the organization . </P> <H3> Inside director ( edit ) </H3> <P> An inside director is a director who is also an employee , officer , chief executive , major shareholder , or someone similarly connected to the organization . Inside directors represent the interests of the entity 's stakeholders , and often have special knowledge of its inner workings , its financial or market position , and so on . </P> <P> Typical inside directors are : </P> <Ul> <Li> A chief executive officer ( CEO ) who may also be chairman of the board </Li> <Li> Other executives of the organization , such as its chief financial officer ( CFO ) or executive vice president </Li> <Li> Large shareholders ( who may or may not also be employees or officers ) </Li> <Li> Representatives of other stakeholders such as labor unions , major lenders , or members of the community in which the organization is located </Li> </Ul> <P> An inside director who is employed as a manager or executive of the organization is sometimes referred to as an executive director ( not to be confused with the title executive director sometimes used for the CEO position in some organizations ) . Executive directors often have a specified area of responsibility in the organization , such as finance , marketing , human resources , or production . </P> <H3> Outside director ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Independent director <P> An outside director is a member of the board who is not otherwise employed by or engaged with the organization , and does not represent any of its stakeholders . A typical example is a director who is president of a firm in a different industry . Outside directors are not employees of the company or affiliated with it in any other way . </P> <P> Outside directors bring outside experience and perspectives to the board . For example , for a company that only serves a domestic market , the presence of CEOs from global multinational corporations as outside directors can help to provide insights on export and import opportunities and international trade options . One of the arguments for having outside directors is that they can keep a watchful eye on the inside directors and on the way the organization is run . Outside directors are unlikely to tolerate `` insider dealing '' between insider directors , as outside directors do not benefit from the company or organization . Outside directors are often useful in handling disputes between inside directors , or between shareholders and the board | The titles of a board of directors are | [

The French effort went bankrupt in 1889 after reportedly spending US $287,000,000 and losing an estimated 22,000 lives to disease and accidents , wiping out the savings of 800,000 investors . Work was suspended on May 15 , and in the ensuing scandal , known as the Panama affair , various of those deemed responsible were prosecuted , including Gustave Eiffel . De Lesseps and his son Charles were found guilty of misappropriation of funds and sentenced to five years ' imprisonment , though this was later overturned , and the father , at 88 , was never imprisoned . </P> <P> In 1894 , a second French company , the Compagnie Nouvelle du Canal de Panama , was created to take over the project . A minimal workforce of a few thousand people was employed primarily to comply with the terms of the Colombian Panama Canal concession , to run the Panama Railroad , and to maintain the existing excavation and equipment in salable condition . The company sought a buyer for these assets , with an asking price of US $109,000,000 . In the meantime they continued with enough activity to maintain their franchise . Phillipe Bunau - Varilla , the French manager of the New Panama Canal Company , eventually managed to persuade de Lesseps that a lock - and - lake canal was more realistic than a sea - level canal . </P> <H3> United States acquisition ( edit ) </H3> The U.S. 's intentions to influence the area ( especially the Panama Canal construction and control ) led to the separation of Panama from Colombia in 1903 The Culebra Cut , or Gaillard Cut , in 1896 The Culebra Cut in 1902 <P> At this time , the President and the Senate of the United States were interested in establishing a canal across the isthmus , with some favoring a canal across Nicaragua and others advocating the purchase of the French interests in Panama . Bunau - Varilla , who was seeking American involvement , asked for $100 million , but accepted $40 million in the face of the Nicaraguan option . In June 1902 , the U.S. Senate voted in favor of pursuing the Panamanian option , provided the necessary rights could be obtained , in the Spooner Act . </P> <P> On January 22 , 1903 , the Hay -- Herrán Treaty was signed by United States Secretary of State John M. Hay and Colombian Chargé Dr. Tomás Herrán . For $10 million and an annual payment it would have granted the United States a renewable lease in perpetuity from Colombia on the land proposed for the canal . The treaty was ratified by the U.S. Senate on March 14 , 1903 , but the Senate of Colombia did not ratify it . Bunau - Varilla told President Theodore Roosevelt and Hay of a possible revolt by Panamanian rebels who aimed to separate from Colombia , and hoped that the United States would support the rebels with U.S. troops and money . Roosevelt changed tactics , based in part on the Mallarino -- Bidlack Treaty of 1846 , and actively supported the separation of Panama from Colombia and , shortly after recognizing Panama , signed a treaty with the new Panamanian government under similar terms to the Hay -- Herrán Treaty . </P> <P> On November 2 , 1903 , U.S. warships blocked sea lanes for possible Colombian troop movements en route to put down the rebellion . Panama declared independence on November 3 , 1903 . The United States quickly recognized the new nation . On November 6 , 1903 , Philippe Bunau - Varilla , as Panama 's ambassador to the United States , signed the Hay -- Bunau - Varilla Treaty , granting rights to the United States to build and indefinitely administer the Panama Canal Zone and its defenses . This is sometimes misinterpreted as the `` 99 - year lease '' because of misleading wording included in article 22 of the agreement . Almost immediately , the treaty was condemned by many Panamanians as an infringement on their country 's new national sovereignty . This would later become a contentious diplomatic issue among Colombia , Panama , and the United States . </P> <P> President Roosevelt famously stated that `` I took the Isthmus , started the canal and then left Congress not to debate the canal , but to debate me . '' Several parties in the United States called this an act of war on Colombia : The New York Times called the support given by the United States to Bunau - Varilla an `` act of sordid conquest . '' The New York Evening Post called it a `` vulgar and mercenary venture . '' It is often cited as the classic example of U.S. gunboat diplomacy in Latin America , and the best illustration of what Roosevelt meant by the old African adage , `` Speak softly and carry a big stick ( and ) you will go far . '' After the revolution in 1903 , the Republic of Panama became a U.S. protectorate until 1939 . </P> <P> Thus in 1904 , the United States purchased the French equipment and excavations , including the Panama Railroad , for US $40 million , of which $30 million related to excavations completed , primarily in the Gaillard Cut ( then called the Culebra Cut ) , valued at about $1.00 per cubic yard . The United States also paid the new country of Panama $10 million and a $250,000 payment each following year . </P> <P> In 1921 , Colombia and the United States entered into the Thomson - Urrutia Treaty , in which the United States agreed to pay Colombia $25 million : $5 million upon ratification , and four - $5 million annual payments , and grant Colombia special | The Panama Canal was built during the presidency of | [

He then walked up a staircase and appeared on a ramp stage extending outward into the field , descending into a series of stages surrounded by a crowd . Timberlake proceeded to move through the crowd performing `` Rock Your Body '' with a troupe of female backup dancers , abruptly stopping short of the end of the song and shifting to `` Señorita '' on a small stage with his backing dancers . Upon reaching the main stage , he performed a number of songs , including `` SexyBack '' , `` My Love '' , and `` Cry Me a River '' , which featured a dance break mid-field . Upon reaching the next stage , Timberlake performed his hit song `` Suit & Tie '' as the University of Minnesota Marching Band , wearing black tuxedos , played backup instrumentals and marched out to meet him . </P> The Stadium and the city of Minneapolis were shown to be lit purple during Timberlake 's tribute to Prince Dancers fill the field during Timberlake 's performance of `` Ca n't Stop the Feeling ! '' <P> Timberlake proceeded to walk up to a white grand piano while performing `` Until the End of Time '' , then segued into `` I Would Die 4 U '' as a tribute to Minneapolis - native Prince . A video of Prince performing the song played in the background , projected onto on a large multi-story sheet . An aerial shot showed downtown Minneapolis covered in purple lighting that morphed into Prince 's trademark Love Symbol , with the stadium at the center . He then returned to the main stage to perform `` Mirrors '' , as hundreds of dancers and members of the marching band performed choreography with large mirrors , creating bright reflections in the broadcast and across the roof of the stadium . Timberlake closed the show with `` Ca n't Stop the Feeling ! '' , entering the stands at the conclusion of the song . </P> <P> For the first time since the Super Bowl XLVI halftime show in Indianapolis in 2012 , no pyrotechnics were used throughout the performance . The show relied mostly on lasers and video screens for visual effects . </P> <H2> Background ( edit ) </H2> Field being set up for Timberlake 's performance <P> In July 2017 , multiple media outlets reported that Britney Spears was in talks to perform at Halftime , but Pepsi quickly denied it a few days later . During August and September 2017 , several publications informed that Timberlake was the frontrunner to performer at the Super Bowl LII halftime , first along with his frequent - collaborator Jay - Z as co-headliner , and then as the solo performer . A spokesperson from the NFL stated at the time , `` along with Pepsi , we know that we will put on a spectacular show . When it is time to announce her name we will do it . Or his name . Or their names . '' The NFL confirmed the announcement on October 22 with a video starring Timberlake and Jimmy Fallon . </P> <P> This was Timberlake 's third appearance in a Super Bowl halftime show . As a member of NSYNC , Timberlake appeared in the Super Bowl XXXV ( 2001 ) halftime show , and as a guest artist in the Super Bowl XXXVIII ( 2004 ) , which performance featured a controversial incident where Timberlake accidentally exposed one of Janet Jackson 's breasts on national television , described as a wardrobe malfunction . The Parents Television Council penned an open letter to Timberlake asking to keep the performance `` family - friendly . '' While the organization acknowledged that Timberlake apologized for the 2004 incident , they asked him to stay true to his word , saying `` we are heartened by your response that the events of 2004 are not going to happen in 2018 , '' as the singer stated in a prior interview that `` we are | The featured performer at Super Bowl 2018's half-time show was | [

The opposition could have owed to the Parti Québécois leadership being allegedly uncooperative , because it was more committed to gaining sovereignty for Quebec . It could have owed to Quebec leaders being excluded from the negotiation of the Kitchen Accord , which they saw as being too centralist . It could have owed to provincial leaders ' objections to the Accord 's provisions relating to the process of future constitutional amendment . They also opposed the inclusion of mobility rights and minority language education rights . The Charter is still applicable in Quebec because all provinces are bound by the Constitution . However , Quebec 's opposition to the 1982 patriation package has led to two failed attempts to amend the Constitution ( the Meech Lake Accord and Charlottetown Accord ) which were designed primarily to obtain Quebec 's political approval of the Canadian constitutional order . </P> <P> While the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms was adopted in 1982 , it was not until 1985 that the main provisions regarding equality rights ( section 15 ) came into effect . The delay was meant to give the federal and provincial governments an opportunity to review pre-existing statutes and strike potentially unconstitutional inequalities . </P> <P> The typography of the physical document pictured here , and still distributed today , was typeset by Ottawa 's David Berman intentionally in Carl Dair 's Cartier typeface : at the time the most prominent Canadian typeface , having been commissioned by the Governor - General as a celebration of Canada 's centenary in 1967 . </P> <P> The Charter has been amended since its enactment . Section 25 was amended in 1983 to explicitly recognize more rights regarding Aboriginal land claims , and section 16.1 was added in 1993 . There have also been a number of unsuccessful attempts to amend the Charter , including the failed Charlottetown Accord of 1992 . The Charlottetown Accord would have specifically required the Charter to be interpreted in a manner respectful of Quebec 's distinct society , and would have added further statements to the Constitution Act , 1867 regarding racial and sexual equality and collective rights , and about minority language communities . Though the Accord was negotiated among many interest groups , the resulting provisions were so vague that Trudeau , then out of office , feared they would actually conflict with and undermine the Charter 's individual rights . He felt judicial review of the rights might be undermined if courts had to favour the policies of provincial governments , as governments would be given responsibility over linguistic minorities . Trudeau thus played a prominent role in leading the popular opposition to the Accord . </P> <H2> Interpretation and enforcement ( edit ) </H2> <P> The task of interpreting and enforcing the Charter falls to the courts , with the Supreme Court of Canada being the ultimate authority on the matter . </P> <P> With the Charter 's supremacy confirmed by section 52 of the Constitution Act , 1982 , the courts continued their practice of striking down unconstitutional statutes or parts of statutes as they had with earlier case law regarding federalism . However , under section 24 of the Charter , courts also gained new powers to enforce creative remedies and exclude more evidence in trials . Courts have since made many important decisions , including R. v. Morgentaler ( 1988 ) , which struck down Canada 's abortion law , and Vriend v. Alberta ( 1998 ) , in which the Supreme Court found the province 's exclusion of homosexuals from protection against discrimination violated section 15 . In the latter case , the Court then read the protection into the law . </P> <P> Courts may receive Charter questions in a number of ways . Rights claimants could be prosecuted under a criminal law that they argue is unconstitutional . Others may feel government services and policies are not being dispensed in accordance with the Charter , and apply to lower - level courts for injunctions against the government ( as was the case in Doucet - Boudreau v. Nova Scotia ( Minister of Education ) ) . A government may also raise questions of rights by submitting reference questions to higher - level courts ; for example , Prime Minister Paul Martin 's government approached the Supreme Court with Charter questions as well as federalism concerns in the case Re Same - Sex Marriage ( 2004 ) . Provinces may also do this with their superior courts . The government of Prince Edward Island initiated the Provincial Judges Reference by asking its provincial Supreme Court a question on judicial independence under section 11 . </P> The building of the Supreme Court of Canada , the chief authority on the interpretation of the Charter <P> In several important cases , judges developed various tests and precedents for interpreting specific provisions of the Charter . These include the Oakes test for section 1 , set out in the case R. v. Oakes ( 1986 ) , and the ( now defunct ) Law test for section 15 , developed in Law v. Canada ( 1999 ) . Since Re B.C. Motor Vehicle Act ( 1985 ) , various approaches to defining and expanding the scope of fundamental justice ( the Canadian name for natural justice or due process ) under section 7 have been adopted . ( For more information , see the articles on each Charter section ) . </P> <P> In general , courts have embraced a purposive interpretation of Charter rights . This means that since early cases like Hunter v. Southam ( 1984 ) and R. v. Big M Drug Mart ( 1985 ) , they have concentrated not on the traditional , limited understanding of what each right meant when the Charter was adopted in 1982 , but rather | The Charter of Rights and Freedoms is enforced by | [

He also produced and directed music videos and aspired to be a film director . </P> <P> For his portrayal of Ennis Del Mar in Brokeback Mountain , Ledger won the New York Film Critics Circle Award for Best Actor and Best International Actor from the Australian Film Institute , and was nominated for the BAFTA Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role and for the Academy Award for Best Actor . Posthumously he shared the 2007 Independent Spirit Robert Altman Award with the rest of the ensemble cast , the director , and the casting director for the film I 'm Not There , which was inspired by the life and songs of American singer - songwriter Bob Dylan . In the film , Ledger portrayed a fictional actor named Robbie Clark , one of six characters embodying aspects of Dylan 's life and persona . </P> <P> Ledger died on 22 January 2008 from an accidental intoxication from prescription drugs . A few months before his death , Ledger had finished filming his performance as The Joker in The Dark Knight . His death occurred during editing of The Dark Knight and in the midst of filming his last role as Tony in The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus . His untimely death cast a shadow over the subsequent promotion of the $185 million Batman production . Ledger received numerous posthumous accolades for his critically acclaimed performance in the film , including the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor , a Best Actor International Award at the 2008 Australian Film Institute Awards ( for which he became the first actor to win an award posthumously ) , the 2008 Los Angeles Film Critics Association Award for Best Supporting Actor , the 2009 Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor -- Motion Picture , and the 2009 BAFTA Award for Best Supporting Actor . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Early life </Li> <Li> 2 Career <Ul> <Li> 2.1 1990s </Li> <Li> 2.2 2000s </Li> <Li> 2.3 Directorial work </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Personal life <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Relationships </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Press controversies </Li> <Li> 5 Health issues </Li> <Li> 6 Death <Ul> <Li> 6.1 Autopsy and toxicology report </Li> <Li> 6.2 Federal investigation </Li> <Li> 6.3 Effect on fans </Li> <Li> 6.4 Controversy over will </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 7 Legacy <Ul> <Li> 7.1 Memorial tributes and services </Li> <Li> 7.2 Method and style </Li> <Li> 7.3 Posthumous films and awards </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 8 Filmography <Ul> <Li> 8.1 Film </Li> <Li> 8.2 Television </Li> <Li> 8.3 Music video </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 9 Accolades </Li> <Li> 10 See also </Li> <Li> 11 Notes </Li> <Li> 12 References </Li> <Li> 13 Further reading </Li> <Li> 14 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Early life ( edit ) </H2> <P> Ledger was born in Perth , Western Australia , the son of Sally Ledger ( née Ramshaw ) , a French teacher , and Kim Ledger , a racecar driver and mining engineer whose family established and owned the Ledger Engineering Foundry .

Writing credits for the song are shared by Don Felder ( music ) , Don Henley , and Glenn Frey ( lyrics ) . The Eagles ' original recording of the song features Henley singing the lead vocals and concludes with an extended section of electric guitar interplay between Felder and Joe Walsh . </P> <P> The song is considered the most famous recording by the band , and its long guitar coda has been voted the best guitar solo of all time by readers of Guitarist in 1998 . The song was awarded the Grammy Award for Record of the Year in 1978 . The lyrics of the song have been given various interpretations by fans and critics alike , the Eagles themselves described the song as their `` interpretation of the high life in Los Angeles '' . In the 2013 documentary History of the Eagles , Henley said that the song was about `` a journey from innocence to experience ... that 's all ... '' </P> <P> Since its release , `` Hotel California '' has been covered by a number of artists and has become a part of international popular culture . Julia Phillips proposed adapting the song into a film , but the members of the Eagles disliked the idea and it never came to fruition . Commercially , `` Hotel California '' reached the number one position on the Billboard Hot 100 and reached the top ten of several international charts . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Composition </Li> <Li> 1.2 Recordings </Li> <Li> 1.3 Chart performance </Li> <Li> 1.4 Accolades </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Themes and interpretations <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Conjectures </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Harmonic structure </Li> <Li> 4 Cover versions , samples and parodies </Li> <Li> 5 Cultural influence </Li> <Li> 6 Proposed film adaptation </Li> <Li> 7 Personnel </Li> <Li> 8 Charts and certifications <Ul> <Li> 8.1 Weekly charts </Li> <Li> 8.2 Year - end charts </Li> <Li> 8.3 Certifications </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 9 References </Li> <Li> 10 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History </H2> <H3> Composition </H3> Don Felder composed the melody for `` Hotel California . '' Glenn Frey provided the outline of `` Hotel California . '' Don Henley wrote the lyrics to `` Hotel California '' with Frey . <P> The melody of the song was composed by Don Felder in a rented house on Malibu Beach . He recorded the basic tracks with a Rhythm Ace drum machine and added a 12 string guitar on a four - track recording deck in his spare bedroom , then mixed in a bassline , and gave Don Henley and Glenn Frey each a copy of the recording . Felder , who met the Eagles through his high school bandmate Bernie Leadon , said that Leadon advised him to make tapes of songs he wrote for the band so that other band members like Henley , whose forte is in writing lyrics , might work with him on finishing the songs they like . The demos he made were always instrumental , and on every album project he would submit 15 or 16 ideas . The demo he made for `` Hotel California '' showed influences from Latin and reggae music , and it grabbed the attention of Henley who said he liked the song that `` sounds like a Mexican reggae or Bolero '' , which gave the song its first working title , `` Mexican Reggae '' . </P> <P> Frey and Henley were both interested in the tune after hearing the demo , and discussed the concept for the lyrics . In 2008 , Felder described the writing of the lyrics : </P> <P> Don Henley and Glenn wrote most of the words . All of us kind of drove into L.A. at night . Nobody was from California , and if you drive into L.A. at night ... you can just see this glow on the horizon of lights , and the images that start running through your head of Hollywood and all the dreams that you have , and so it was kind of about that ... what we started writing the song about . </P> <P> Henley decided on the theme of `` Hotel California '' , noting how The Beverly Hills Hotel had become a literal and symbolic focal point of their lives at that time . Henley said of their personal and professional experience in LA : `` We were getting an extensive education , in life , in love , in business . Beverly Hills was still a mythical place to us . In that sense it became something of a symbol , and the ' Hotel ' the locus of all that LA had come to mean for us . In a sentence , I 'd sum it up as the end of the innocence , round one . '' </P> <P> Frey came up with a cinematic scenario of a person who , tired from driving a long distance in a desert , saw a place for a rest and pulled in for the night , but entered `` a weird world peopled by freaky characters '' , and became `` quickly spooked by the claustrophobic feeling of being caught in a disturbing web from which he may never escape .

The festival signifies the victory of good over evil , the arrival of spring , end of winter , and for many a festive day to meet others , play and laugh , forget and forgive , and repair broken relationships . It is also celebrated as a thanksgiving for a good harvest . It lasts for a night and a day , starting on the evening of the Purnima ( Full Moon day ) falling in the Vikram Samvat Hindu Calendar month of Phalguna , which falls somewhere between the end of February and the middle of March in the Gregorian calendar . The first evening is known as Holika Dahan or Chhoti Holi and the following day as Holi , Rangwali Holi , Dhuleti , Dhulandi , or Phagwah . </P> <P> Holi is an ancient Hindu religious festival which has become popular with non-Hindus in many parts of South Asia , as well as people of other communities outside Asia . In recent years the festival has spread to parts of Europe and North America as a spring celebration of love , frolic , and colours . </P> <P> Holi celebrations start on the night before Holi with a Holika Dahan where people gather , perform religious rituals in front of the bonfire , and pray that their internal evil be destroyed the way Holika , the sister of the demon king Hiranyakashipu , was killed in the fire . The next morning is celebrated as Rangwali Holi -- a free - for - all festival of colours , where people smear each other with colours and drench each other . Water guns and water - filled balloons are also used to play and colour each other . Anyone and everyone is fair game , friend or stranger , rich or poor , man or woman , children and elders . The frolic and fight with colours occurs in the open streets , open parks , outside temples and buildings . Groups carry drums and other musical instruments , go from place to place , sing and dance . People visit family , friends and foes to throw coloured powders on each other , laugh and gossip , then share Holi delicacies , food and drinks . Some customary drinks include bhang ( marijuana ) , which is intoxicating . In the evening , after sobering up , people dress up and visit friends and family . </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Significance <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Vishnu legend </Li> <Li> 1.2 Krishna legend </Li> <Li> 1.3 Other Hindu traditions </Li> <Li> 1.4 Cultural significance </Li> <Li> 1.5 Other Indian religions </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Description </Li> <Li> 3 History and rituals </Li> <Li> 4 Regional names , rituals and celebrations <Ul> <Li> 4.1 India <Ul> <Li> 4.1. 1 Gujarat </Li> <Li> 4.1. 2 Uttar Pradesh </Li> <Li> 4.1. 3 Uttarakhand </Li> <Li> 4.1. 4 Bihar </Li> <Li> 4.1. 5 West Bengal </Li> <Li> 4.1. 6 Odisha </Li> <Li> 4.1. 7 Andhra Pradesh </Li> <Li> 4.1. 8 Assam </Li> <Li> 4.1. 9 Goa </Li> <Li> 4.1. 10 Maharashtra </Li> <Li> 4.1. 11 Manipur </Li> <Li> 4.1. 12 Kerala </Li> <Li> 4.1. 13 Karnataka </Li> <Li> 4.1. 14 Telangana </Li> <Li> 4.1. 15 Tamil Nadu </Li> <Li> 4.1. 16 Jammu & | We celebrate the Holi festival in Hindi | [

( 1.38 MB , ogg / Theora format ) . <P> Gravity , or gravitation , is a natural phenomenon by which all things with mass are brought toward ( or gravitate toward ) one another , including objects ranging from atoms and photons , to planets and stars . Since energy and mass are equivalent , all forms of energy ( including light ) cause gravitation and are under the influence of it . On Earth , gravity gives weight to physical objects , and the Moon 's gravity causes the ocean tides . The gravitational attraction of the original gaseous matter present in the Universe caused it to begin coalescing , forming stars -- and for the stars to group together into galaxies -- so gravity is responsible for many of the large scale structures in the Universe . Gravity has an infinite range , although its effects become increasingly weaker on farther objects . </P> <P> Gravity is most accurately described by the general theory of relativity ( proposed by Albert Einstein in 1915 ) which describes gravity not as a force , but as a consequence of the curvature of spacetime caused by the uneven distribution of mass . The most extreme example of this curvature of spacetime is a black hole , from which nothing -- not even light -- can escape once past the black hole 's event horizon . However , for most applications , gravity is well approximated by Newton 's law of universal gravitation , which describes gravity as a force which causes any two bodies to be attracted to each other , with the force proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them . </P> <P> Gravity is the weakest of the four fundamental forces of physics , approximately 10 times weaker than the strong force , 10 times weaker than the electromagnetic force and 10 times weaker than the weak force . As a consequence , it has no significant influence at the level of subatomic particles . In contrast , it is the dominant force at the macroscopic scale , and is the cause of the formation , shape and trajectory ( orbit ) of astronomical bodies . For example , gravity causes the Earth and the other planets to orbit the Sun , it also causes the Moon to orbit the Earth , and causes the formation of tides , the formation and evolution of the Solar System , stars and galaxies . </P> <P> The earliest instance of gravity in the Universe , possibly in the form of quantum gravity , supergravity or a gravitational singularity , along with ordinary space and time , developed during the Planck epoch ( up to 10 seconds after the birth of the Universe ) , possibly from a primeval state , such as a false vacuum , quantum vacuum or virtual particle , in a currently unknown manner .

-227349815410103996 | in the rest of North America on 24 June 2005 , drawing praise from most critics who found it both informative and charming . It has received a 94 % `` fresh '' rating with the consensus `` Only the hardened soul wo n't be moved by this heartwarming doc '' on the website Rotten Tomatoes , which collects film reviews . The movie - going public apparently agreed with that assessment , as the documentary distinguished itself as one of the most successful documentaries of the season on a per - theatre basis : it became the second most successful documentary released in North America , after Fahrenheit 9 / 11 , grossing over $77 million in the United States and Canada ( in nominal dollars , from 1982 to the present . ) It grossed over $127 million worldwide . It 's the only movie from Warner Independent to be rated G by the MPAA . </P> <P> The documentary was released on DVD in France on 26 July 2005 , and in the United States by Warner Home Video on 29 November 2005 . It was never released on VHS by Warner Home Video , due to A Very Long Engagement being the last VHS by Warner Independent . It however spawned a VHS in French locations , such as French Canadian regions . The DVD extras address some of the criticisms the documentary had attracted , most notably by reframing the documentary as a scientific study and adding facts to what would otherwise have been a family film . This Region 2 release featured no English audio tracks or subtitles . </P> <P> An extra on the DVD issue was the controversial 1948 Bugs Bunny cartoon Frigid Hare , in which Bugs visits the South Pole and meets a young penguin fleeing an Eskimo hunter . The cartoon is not frequently seen because of its stereotypical depiction of the Inuit hunter , but it was included here uncut and uncensored . This is substituted in the American release with 8 Ball Bunny , likewise uncut and uncensored . </P> <P> In November 2006 , the documentary was adapted into a video game by DSI Games for the Nintendo DS and Game Boy Advance platforms . It features Lemmings - like gameplay . </P> <P> In 2007 , a direct - to - DVD parody written and directed by Bob Saget called Farce of the Penguins was released . It is narrated by Samuel L. Jackson and features other stars providing voice - overs for the penguins . Although the film uses footage from actual nature documentaries about penguins , the parody was not allowed to include footage from March of the Penguins itself . </P> <H2> Production ( edit ) </H2> <P> The DVD version includes a 54 - minute film entitled Of Penguins and Men made by the film crew Laurent Chalet and Jérôme Mason about the filming of March of the Penguins . </P> <P> Director and film crew spent more than 13 months at the Dumont d'Urville Station , where the Institut polaire français Paul - Émile Victor is based . Although the penguins ' meeting place , one of four in Antarctica , was known to be near , the day on which it occurs is not known , so they had to be ready every day . Fortunately , the gathering that year was huge -- more than 1,200 penguins , compared with the norm of a few hundred . </P> <P> For cameras to operate at − 40 ° , they had to use film and to load all the film for the day , as it was impossible to reload outside . Because of the isolation from any film studios , remembering each shot was necessary to ensure continuity and to make sure that all the necessary sequences were finished . </P> <P> The main challenge of making the documentary was the weather with temperatures between − 50 and − 60 ° C ( − 58 and − 76 ° F ) . At dawn , the film crew would spend half an hour putting on six layers of clothes , and on some days they could not spend more than three hours outside . They worked in winds with gusts up to 125 miles per hour , `` which in some ways is worse than the cold temperatures '' according to director Jaquet . </P> <H2> Political and social interpretations ( edit ) </H2> <P> The documentary attracted some political and social commentary in which the penguins were viewed anthropomorphically as having similarities with , and even lessons for , human society . Michael Medved praised the documentary for promoting conservative family values by showing the value of stable parenthood . Medved 's comments provoked responses by others , including Andrew Sullivan , who pointed out that the penguins are not in fact monogamous for more than one year , in reality practicing serial monogamy . Matt Walker of New Scientist pointed out that many emperor penguin `` adoptions '' of chicks are in fact kidnappings , as well as behaviours observed in other penguin species , such as ill treatment of weak chicks , prostitution , and ostracism of rare albino penguins . `` For instance , while it is true that emperor penguins often adopt each other 's chicks , they do not always do so in a way the moralisers would approve of . '' Sullivan and Walker both conclude that trying to use animal behavior as an example for human behavior is a mistake . </P> <P> The director , Luc Jacquet , has condemned such comparisons between penguins and humans . Asked by the San Diego Union Tribune to comment on the documentary 's use as `` a metaphor for family values -- the devotion to a mate , devotion to offspring , monogamy , self - denial '' , Jaquet responded : `` I condemn this position .

She took A-levels at St Mary 's School , Wantage , and completed a secretarial course , and married her first husband Desmond Corcoran , an art dealer . The couple went on to have three children , Sibylla , Alexander , and Rosie , but divorced in 1980 . In 1985 she married comedy script writer Neil Shand . They separated in 1987 . </P> <P> Keppel is the granddaughter of Walter , 9th Earl of Albemarle . Her great - grandfather , the 8th Earl , was brother - in - law of Alice Keppel , the mistress of King Edward VII , and was the great - granduncle of Camilla , Duchess of Cornwall . The Duchess of Cornwall is therefore her third cousin .

Nonetheless , she had spent about £ 100 phoning the quiz show more than 50 times to secure a place . `` BT rang me up and said , ' Do you realise your telephone bills are rising ?

The secret society was formed to protect the rights of the colonists and to fight taxation by the British government . They played a major role in most colonies in battling the Stamp Act in 1765 . The group officially disbanded after the Stamp Act was repealed . However , the name was applied to other local separatist groups during the years preceding the American Revolution . </P> <P> In the popular imagination , the Sons of Liberty was a formal underground organization with recognized members and leaders . More likely , the name was an underground term for any men resisting new Crown taxes and laws . The well - known label allowed organizers to make or create anonymous summons to a Liberty Tree , `` Liberty Pole '' , or other public meeting - place . Furthermore , a unifying name helped to promote inter-Colonial efforts against Parliament and the Crown 's actions . Their motto became `` No taxation without representation .

The men also poured hot tea down Malcolm 's throat ; note the noose hanging on the Liberty Tree and the Stamp Act posted upside - down <P> In 1765 , the British government needed money to afford the 10,000 officers and soldiers living in the colonies , and intended that the colonists living there should contribute . The British passed a series of taxes aimed at the colonists , and many of the colonists refused to pay certain taxes ; they argued that they should not be held accountable for taxes which were decided upon without any form of their consent through a representative . This became commonly known as `` No Taxation without Representation . '' Parliament insisted on its right to rule the colonies despite the fact that the colonists had no representative in Parliament . The most incendiary tax was the Stamp Act of 1765 , which caused a firestorm of opposition through legislative resolutions ( starting in the colony of Virginia ) , public demonstrations , threats , and occasional hurtful losses . </P> <P> The organization spread hour by hour , after independent starts in several different colonies . In August 1765 , the group was founded in Boston , Massachusetts . By November 6 , a committee was set up in New York to correspond with other colonies . In December , an alliance was formed between groups in New York and Connecticut . January bore witness to a correspondence link between Boston and New York City , and by March , Providence had initiated connections with New York , New Hampshire , and Newport , Rhode Island . March also marked the emergence of Sons of Liberty organizations in New Jersey , Maryland , and Virginia . </P> <P> In Boston , another example of violence could be found in their treatment of local stamp distributor Andrew Oliver . They burned his effigy in the streets . When he did not resign , they escalated to burning down his office building . Even after he resigned , they almost destroyed the whole house of his close associate Lieutenant Governor Thomas Hutchinson . It is believed that the Sons of Liberty did this to excite the lower classes and get them actively involved in rebelling against the authorities . Their actions made many of the stamp distributors resign in fear . </P> <P> Early in the American Revolution , the former Sons of Liberty generally joined more formal groups , such as the Committee of Safety . </P> <P> The Sons of Liberty popularized the use of tar and feathering to punish and humiliate offending government officials starting in 1767 . This method was also used against British Loyalists during the American Revolution . This punishment had long been used by sailors to punish their mates . </P> <H3> New York ( edit ) </H3> <P> In December 1773 , a new group calling itself the Sons of Liberty issued and distributed a declaration in New York City called the Association | The Sons of Liberty were | [

Following this , Homer decides to enter Wilbur in the county fair for the summer . Charlotte reluctantly decides to accompany him , though Templeton at first has no interest in doing so until the goose tells him about all the food there . After one night there , Charlotte sends Templeton to the trash pile on another errand to gather another word for her next message , in which he returns with the word , HUMBLE . The next morning , Wilbur awakens to find Charlotte has spun an egg sac containing her unborn offspring , and the following afternoon , the word , HUMBLE , is spun . However , Fern 's brother , Avery , discovers another pig named Uncle has won first place , though the county fair staff decides to hold a celebration in honor of Homer 's miraculous pig , and rewards him $ 25 and a gold medal . He then announces that he will allow Wilbur to `` live to a ripe old age '' . </P> <P> Exhausted from laying eggs and writing words , Charlotte tells Wilbur she will remain at the fair to die . Not willing to let her children be abandoned , Wilbur has Templeton retrieve her egg sac to take back to the farm , just before she dies .

The next spring , Charlotte 's 514 children are hatched , but leave the farm , causing Wilbur to become saddened to the point of wanting to run away .

When Wilbur is loaded into a crate destined for the fair , Jeffrey casually walks in to join him , amusing the humans but they still remove and restrain him nevertheless . International VHS releases show a deleted scene in which Jeffrey is briefly seen riding with Avery in the back of the Arables ' truck , until it stops so Avery can put him down in the middle of the road .

It began in 1990 when Universal Studios bought the rights to the novel by Michael Crichton before it was even published . </P> <P> The book was successful , as was Steven Spielberg 's 1993 film adaptation , which led to three sequels , although the third and fourth films were not based on novels as the first two were . Numerous video games based on the franchise have been created by various software developers since the release of the 1993 film . </P> <P> The Jurassic Park Ultimate Trilogy was released on DVD and Blu - ray on October 25 , 2011 , in North America . The first film was re-released in 3D on April 5 , 2013 . Since 1996 , several water rides based on the series have been opened at various Universal theme parks . On June 1 , 2016 , the first three films in the franchise were added to the Netflix streaming service , but were removed on September 1 , 2016 . </P> <P> The fourth film , Jurassic World , was initially scheduled to be released in the summer of 2005 , but was delayed numerous times and was ultimately released in June 2015 . It became the first film that grossed over $500 million worldwide in its opening weekend , and has grossed over $1.6 billion through the course of its theatrical run , making it the fourth highest - grossing film of all time . When adjusted for monetary inflation , however , this film is the second highest grossing in the franchise after Jurassic Park . An animated film , Lego Jurassic World : The Indominus Escape , was released on October 18 , 2016 with the home media release of Jurassic World , alongside a short film , Employee Safety Video . </P> <P> A fifth film , Jurassic World : Fallen Kingdom , is scheduled to be released on June 22 , 2018 . A sixth film , tentatively titled Jurassic World 3 , is scheduled to be released on June 11 , 2021 .

According to this theory , each dynasty rises to a political , cultural , and economic peak and then , because of moral corruption , declines , loses the Mandate of Heaven , and falls , only to be replaced by a new dynasty . The cycle then repeats under a surface pattern of repetitive motifs . </P> <P> It sees a continuity in Chinese history from early times to the present by looking at the succession of empires or dynasties , implying that there is little basic development or change in social or economic structures . John K. Fairbank expressed the doubts of many historians when he wrote that `` the concept of the dynastic cycle ... has been a major block to the understanding of the fundamental dynamics of Chinese history .

( October 2014 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) </Td> </Tr> </Table> <P> Chinese history is traditionally represented in terms of dynastic cycles . Through its long history , the Chinese have been ruled not by one dynasty , but by a succession of different dynasties . The first dynasty in China to be described in ancient historical records such as Records of the Grand Historian and Bamboo Annals is the Xia , which was succeeded by the Shang , although concrete existence of the Xia is yet to be archaeologically proven . </P> <P> Among these dynasties the Han and Tang are often considered as particularly strong periods , although other dynasties are famous for cultural and other achievements ( for instance , the Song dynasty is sometimes associated with rapid economic development ) . Han and Tang , as well as other long , stable dynasties were followed by periods of disorder and the break - up of China into small regimes . </P> <P> Out of disorder a leader eventually arose who unified the country and imposed strong central authority . For example , after the Han various dynasties ruled parts of China until Yang Jian reunited the country and established the Sui dynasty . The Sui set the scene for the long and prosperous Tang . After the fall of Tang , China again saw a period of political upheaval . </P> <P> There is a famous Chinese proverb expressed in the 16th century novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms that says `` After a long split , a union will occur ; after a long union , a split will occur '' ( 分久必合 , 合 久 必 分 ) . Each of these rulers would claim the Mandate of Heaven to legitimize their rule . </P> <P> Although this well - known dynastic periodization of China is more or less based on traditional Sinocentric ideology , it also applies to non-native rulers who sought to gain the Mandate of Heaven . While most ruling dynasties in Chinese history were founded by native Chinese , there were also non-native or Conquest Dynasties established by non-Han Chinese people beyond the traditional border of central part of China dominated by Han Chinese people ( also known as China proper ) . These include the Yuan founded by Mongols and the Qing founded by Manchus , who later conquered the central part of China and assumed the title of Emperor of China . </P> <H2> See also ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> History of China </Li> <Li> Mandate of Heaven </Li> <Li> Social cycle theory </Li> <Li> Kyklos </Li> <Li> Sexagenary cycle </Li> <Li> Dialectic </Li> <Li> Cliodynamics </Li> <Li> | In the dynastic cycle, the right to rule is called the | [

A graduate of West Point , McClellan served with distinction during the Mexican -- American War ( 1846 - 1848 ) , and later left the Army to work in railroads until the outbreak of the American Civil War ( 1861 - 1865 ) . Early in the war , McClellan was appointed to the rank of major general and played an important role in raising a well - trained and organized army , which would become the Army of the Potomac in the Eastern Theater ; he served a brief period ( November 1861 to March 1862 ) as general - in - chief of the United States Army / Union Army . Although McClellan was meticulous in his planning and preparations , these very characteristics hampered his ability to challenge aggressive opponents in a fast - moving battlefield environment . He chronically overestimated the strength of enemy units and was reluctant to apply principles of mass , frequently leaving large portions of his army unengaged at decisive points . </P> <P> McClellan organized and led the Union army in the Peninsula Campaign in southeastern Virginia from March through July 1862 . It was the first large - scale offensive in the Eastern Theater . Making an amphibious clockwise turning movement around the Confederate States Army in northern Virginia , McClellan 's forces turned west to move up the Virginia Peninsula , between the James and York Rivers landing from the Chesapeake Bay , with the Confederate capital , Richmond , as their objective . Initially , McClellan was somewhat successful against the equally cautious General Joseph E. Johnston , but the military emergence of General Robert E. Lee to command the Army of Northern Virginia turned the subsequent Seven Days Battles into a partial Union defeat . </P> <P> General McClellan failed to maintain the trust of 16th President Abraham Lincoln . He did not trust his commander - in - chief and was privately derisive of him . He was removed from command in November after failing to decisively pursue Lee 's Army following the tactically inconclusive but strategic Union victory at the Battle of Antietam outside Sharpsburg , Maryland and never received another field command . McClellan went on to become the unsuccessful Democratic Party nominee in the 1864 presidential election against Lincoln 's reelection . The effectiveness of his campaign was damaged when he repudiated his party 's platform , which promised an end to the war and negotiations with the southern Confederacy . He served as the 24th Governor of New Jersey from 1878 to 1881 . He eventually became a writer , and vigorously defended his Civil War conduct . </P> <P> Most modern authorities have assessed McClellan as a poor battlefield general . Some historians view him as a highly capable commander whose reputation suffered unfairly at the hands of pro-Lincoln partisans who made him a scapegoat for the Union 's military setbacks . After the war , subsequent commanding general and 18th President Ulysses S. Grant was asked for his opinion of McClellan as a general ; he replied , `` McClellan is to me one of the mysteries of the war .

A more modern theory considers `` Salamis '' to come from the root sal ' salt ' and - amis ' middle ' ; thus Salamis would be the place amid salt water . Some scholars connect it to the Semitic root Š - L-M ' health , safety , peace ' , because of the well - sheltered harbor . </P> <P> From at least the 13th century until the 19th century , the town , the island , and the bay of Salamis were called Koulouri ( Κουλούρι ) , presumably because it was round like the bread called ' koulouri ' .

According to Strabo , the ancient capital was at the south of the island ; in classical times it was to the east , on the Kamatero Peninsula overlooking the Strait of Salamis ; in modern times it is on the west . </P> <P> According to Homer 's Iliad , Salamis took part in the Trojan War with twelve ships under the leadership of Ajax ( Aias ) . </P> <P> Salamis island is known for the Battle of Salamis , the decisive naval victory of the allied Greek fleet , led by Themistocles , over the Persian Empire in 480 BC .

Please help to clean it up to meet Wikipedia 's quality standards . Where appropriate , incorporate items into the main body of the article . ( September 2017 ) </Td> </Tr> </Table> <P> `` Send In the Clowns '' is a song written by Stephen Sondheim for the 1973 musical A Little Night Music , an adaptation of Ingmar Bergman 's film Smiles of a Summer Night . It is a ballad from Act Two , in which the character Desirée reflects on the ironies and disappointments of her life . Among other things , she looks back on an affair years earlier with the lawyer Fredrik , who was deeply in love with her but whose marriage proposals she had rejected . Meeting him after so long , she realizes she is in love with him and finally ready to marry him , but now it is he who rejects her : he is in an unconsummated marriage with a much younger woman . Desirée proposes marriage to rescue him from this situation , but he declines , citing his dedication to his bride . Reacting to his rejection , Desirée sings this song . The song is later reprised as a coda after Fredrik 's young wife runs away with his son , and Fredrik is finally free to accept Desirée 's offer . </P> <P> Sondheim wrote the song specifically for the actress Glynis Johns , who created the role of Desirée on Broadway . The song is structured with four verses and a bridge , and uses a complex compound meter . It became Sondheim 's most popular song after Frank Sinatra recorded it in 1973 and Judy Collins ' version charted in 1975 and 1977 . Subsequently , numerous other artists recorded the song , and it has become a jazz standard . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Meaning of title </Li> <Li> 2 Context </Li> <Li> 3 Score <Ul> <Li> 3.1 History </Li> <Li> 3.2 Lyrics </Li> <Li> 3.3 Meter and key </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Styles </Li> <Li> 5 Popular success </Li> <Li> 6 Other versions and parodies </Li> <Li> 7 References </Li> <Li> 8 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Meaning of title ( edit ) </H2> <P> The `` clowns '' in the title do not refer to circus clowns . Instead , they symbolize fools , as Sondheim explained in a 1990 interview : </P> <P> I get a lot of letters over the years asking what the title means and what the song 's about ; I never thought it would be in any way esoteric . I wanted to use theatrical imagery in the song , because she 's an actress , but it 's not supposed to be a circus ( ... ) ( I ) t 's a theater reference meaning `` if the show is n't going well , let 's send in the clowns '' ; in other words , `` let 's do the jokes . '' I always want to know , when I 'm writing a song , what the end is going to be , so `` Send in the Clowns '' did n't settle in until I got the notion , `` Do n't bother , they 're here '' , which means that `` We are the fools . '' </P> <P> In a 2008 interview , Sondheim further clarified : </P> <P> As I think of it now , the song could have been called `` Send in the Fools '' . I knew I was writing a song in which Desirée is saying , `` are n't we foolish '' or `` are n't we fools ? '' Well , a synonym for fools is clowns , but `` Send in the Fools '' does n't have the same ring to it . </P> <H2> Context ( edit ) </H2> Main article : A Little Night Music <P> Judi Dench , who performed the role of Desirée in London , commented on the context of the song during an interview with Alan Titchmarsh . The play is `` a dark play about people who , at the beginning , are with wrong partners and in the end it is hopefully going to become right , and she ( Desirée ) mistimes her life in a way and realizes when she re-meets the man she had an affair with and had a child by ( though he does not know that ) , that she loves him and he is the man she wants . '' </P> <P> Some years before the play begins , Desirée was a young , attractive actress , whose passions were the theater and romance . She lived her life dramatically , flitting from man to man . Fredrik was one of her many lovers and fell deeply in love with Desirée , but she declined to marry him . The play implies that when they parted Desirée may have been pregnant with his child . </P> <P> A few months before the play begins , Fredrik married a beautiful young woman who at 18 years old was much younger than he . In Act One , Fredrik meets Desirée again , and is introduced to her daughter , a precocious adolescent suggestively named Fredrika . Fredrik explains to Desirée that he is now married to a young woman he loves very much , but that she is still a virgin , continuing to refuse to have sex with him . Desirée and Fredrik then make love . </P> <P> Act Two begins days later , and Desirée realizes that she truly loves Fredrik . | The original song "Send in the Clowns" was sung by | [

( March 2014 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) </Td> </Tr> </Table> A wooden livewell ( container for live bait ) , towed by fishing boat . Exposition in Fisheries Museum in Hel ( branch of National Maritime Museum in Gdańsk ) <P> A livewell is a tank found on many fishing boats that is used to keep bait and caught fish alive . It works by pumping fresh water from the surrounding body into the tank , as well as keeping the water aerated . A rule of thumb for determining the necessitated size of a livewell is that every one inch of fish needs a gallon of water if it is desired to keep the fish alive for a prolonged period of time . </P> <P> Besides size and water circulation , two other key factors of the functionality of a livewell are maintaining proper temperature and removing metabolic waste . Water temperatures should be below 75 ° F ( 24 ° C ) ; ice can be used as a coolant . </P> <H2> Oxygen levels ( edit ) </H2> <P> It is very important to maintain adequate oxygen levels in the livewell . It should be above 5 parts per million . Electric aeration systems are often used to do this . These often work by creating a spray that increases the surface area of the water , or by passing it through a Venturi . </P> <P> A livewell is a box used to transport live aquatic animals ; shrimp , baitfish and mature fish , saltwater or freshwater species . A livewell should be made of materials that are non - toxic to aquatic animals . The shape may be square , rectangular , oval or round . The box may be insulated , portable , have a drain and lid . Maintaining minimal safe water quality standards in livewell water is essential and necessary to insure a safe habitat for all the captive animals during transport . When transporting baitfish , shrimp or mature fish , maintaining dissolved oxygen saturation ( DO Sat ) is the single most important water quality parameter that must be controlled . Livewell oxygen -- injection systems and LOX systems insure O2 enriched livewell water . Pure 100 % compressed welding oxygen is injected into the water with a precision dose adjustable high - pressure oxygen regulator , oxygen tube and diffuser . Commercial and sport fishing oxygen - injection systems are designed to insure 100 % DO Saturation or greater whether the bait or fish load is 1 lb or > 1000 lbs . Minimal safe EPA water quality standards for steady state environments ( rivers , lakes , ponds , etc . ) is 5 ppm DO . </P> <P> Dissolved oxygen is the single most important factor for keeping bass alive , and an understanding of factors that affect oxygen levels will better enable anglers to keep their fish ( aquatic animals ) alive . At a moderate water temperature of 70 ̊ F , 100 percent oxygen saturation is 8.8 mg / l of oxygen , whereas at the higher temperature of 80 ̊ F , 100 percent saturation is 7.9 mg / l . Both of these 100 percent saturation oxygen levels are suitable for keeping bass alive . Without injecting oxygen into the livewell , it is very difficult to supply enough oxygen to keep alive heavier tournament limits . Oxygen injection has long been used by Texas Parks and Wildlife Department ( TPWD ) hatcheries to maintain the health of fish being stocked into reservoirs .

The picture was Welles 's first feature film . Nominated for Academy Awards in nine categories , it won an Academy Award for Best Writing ( Original Screenplay ) by Herman J. Mankiewicz and Welles . Considered by many critics , filmmakers , and fans to be the greatest film of all time , Citizen Kane was voted as such in five consecutive British Film Institute Sight & Sound polls of critics , until it was displaced by Vertigo in the 2012 poll . It topped the American Film Institute 's 100 Years ... 100 Movies list in 1998 , as well as its 2007 update . Citizen Kane is particularly praised for its cinematography , music , editing and narrative structure , which have been considered innovative and precedent - setting . </P> <P> The quasi-biographical film examines the life and legacy of Charles Foster Kane , played by Welles , a character based in part upon the American newspaper magnate William Randolph Hearst , Chicago tycoons Samuel Insull and Harold McCormick , and aspects of Welles 's own life . Upon its release , Hearst prohibited mention of the film in any of his newspapers . </P> <P> Kane 's career in the publishing world is born of idealistic social service , but gradually evolves into a ruthless pursuit of power . Narrated principally through flashbacks , the story is told through the research of a newsreel reporter seeking to solve the mystery of the newspaper magnate 's dying word : `` Rosebud '' . </P> <P> After the Broadway successes of Welles 's Mercury Theatre and the controversial 1938 radio broadcast `` The War of the Worlds '' on The Mercury Theatre on the Air , Welles was courted by Hollywood . He signed a contract with RKO Pictures in 1939 . Unusually for an untried director , he was given the freedom to develop his own story , to use his own cast and crew , and to have final cut privilege . Following two abortive attempts to get a project off the ground , he wrote the screenplay for Citizen Kane , collaborating on the effort with Herman Mankiewicz . Principal photography took place in 1940 and the film received its American release in 1941 . </P> <P> While a critical success , Citizen Kane failed to recoup its costs at the box office . The film faded from view after its release but was subsequently returned to the public 's attention when it was praised by such French critics as André Bazin and given an American revival in 1956 . The film was released on Blu - ray on September 13 , 2011 , for a special 70th anniversary edition . </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Plot </Li> <Li> 2 Cast </Li> <Li> 3 Pre-production <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Development </Li> <Li> 3.2 Screenplay </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Sources </Li> <Li> 5 Production <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Casting </Li> <Li> 5.2 Filming </Li> <Li> 5.3 Post-production </Li> <Li> 5.4 Trailer </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 Style <Ul> <Li> 6.1 Storytelling techniques </Li> <Li> 6.2 Cinematography </Li> <Li> 6.3 Sound </Li> <Li> 6.4 Make - up </Li> <Li> 6.5 Sets </Li> <Li> 6.6 Special effects </Li> <Li> 6.7 Music </Li> <Li> 6.8 Editing </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 7 Themes <Ul> <Li> 7.1 Political themes </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 8 Reception <Ul> <Li> 8.1 Pre-release controversy </Li> <Li> 8.2 Hearst 's response </Li> <Li> 8.3 Release </Li> <Li> 8.4 Contemporary responses </Li> <Li> 8.5 Awards </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 9 Legacy <Ul> <Li> 9.1 Release in Europe </Li> <Li> 9.2 Re-evaluation </Li> <Li> 9.3 Influence </Li> <Li> 9.4 Film memorabilia </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 10 Rights and home media <Ul> <Li> 10.1 Colorization controversy </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 11 See also </Li> <Li> 12 Bibliography </Li> <Li> 13 Notes </Li> <Li> 14 References </Li> <Li> 15 External links </Li> </Ul> <H2> Plot ( edit ) </H2> Favored to win election as governor , Kane makes a campaign speech at Madison Square Garden The affair between Kane and Susan Alexander ( Dorothy Comingore ) is exposed by his political opponent , Boss Jim W.

There were an estimated 2,224 passengers and crew aboard , and more than 1,500 died , making it one of the deadliest commercial peacetime maritime disasters in modern history . RMS Titanic was the largest ship afloat at the time it entered service and was the second of three Olympic - class ocean liners operated by the White Star Line . It was built by the Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast . Thomas Andrews , her architect , died in the disaster . </P> <P> Titanic was under the command of Edward Smith , who also went down with the ship . The ocean liner carried some of the wealthiest people in the world , as well as hundreds of emigrants from Great Britain and Ireland , Scandinavia and elsewhere throughout Europe who were seeking a new life in the United States . The first - class accommodation was designed to be the pinnacle of comfort and luxury , with an on - board gymnasium , swimming pool , libraries , high - class restaurants and opulent cabins . A high - powered radiotelegraph transmitter was available for sending passenger `` marconigrams '' and for the ship 's operational use . Although Titanic had advanced safety features such as watertight compartments and remotely activated watertight doors , Titanic only carried enough lifeboats for 1,178 people -- about half the number on board , and one third of her total capacity -- due to outdated maritime safety regulations . The ship carried 16 lifeboat davits which could lower three lifeboats each , for a total of 48 boats . However , Titanic carried only a total of 20 lifeboats , four of which were collapsible and proved hard to launch during the sinking . </P> <P> After leaving Southampton on 10 April 1912 , Titanic called at Cherbourg in France and Queenstown ( now Cobh ) in Ireland before heading west to New York . On 14 April , four days into the crossing and about 375 miles ( 600 km ) south of Newfoundland , she hit an iceberg at 11 : 40 p.m. ship 's time . The collision caused the hull plates to buckle inwards along her starboard ( right ) side and opened five of her sixteen watertight compartments to the sea ; she could only survive four flooding . Meanwhile , passengers and some crew members were evacuated in lifeboats , many of which were launched only partially loaded . A disproportionate number of men were left aboard because of a `` women and children first '' protocol for loading lifeboats . At 2 : 20 a.m. , she broke apart and foundered with well over one thousand people still aboard . Just under two hours after Titanic sank , the Cunard liner RMS Carpathia arrived and brought aboard an estimated 705 survivors . </P> <P> The disaster was met with worldwide shock and outrage at the huge loss of life and the regulatory and operational failures that led to it . Public inquiries in Britain and the United States led to major improvements in maritime safety . One of their most important legacies was the establishment in 1914 of the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea ( SOLAS ) , which still governs maritime safety today . Additionally , several new wireless regulations were passed around the world in an effort to learn from the many missteps in wireless communications -- which could have saved many more passengers . </P> <P> The wreck of Titanic was discovered in 1985 ( more than 70 years after the disaster ) , and remains on the seabed . The ship was split in two and is gradually disintegrating at a depth of 12,415 feet ( 3,784 m ) . Thousands of artefacts have been recovered and displayed at museums around the world . Titanic has become one of the most famous ships in history ; her memory is kept alive by numerous works of popular culture , including books , folk songs , films , exhibits , and memorials . Titanic is the second largest ocean liner wreck in the world , only beaten by her sister HMHS Britannic , the largest ever sunk . The final survivor of the sinking , Millvina Dean , aged two months at the time , died in 2009 at the age of 97 . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Background </Li> <Li> 2 Dimensions and layout </Li> <Li> 3 Features <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Power </Li> <Li> 3.2 Technology <Ul> <Li> 3.2. 1 Watertight compartments and funnels </Li> <Li> 3.2. 2 Rudder and steering engines </Li> <Li> 3.2. 3 Water , ventilation and heating </Li> <Li> 3.2. 4 Radio communications </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3.3 Passenger facilities </Li> <Li> 3.4 Mail and cargo </Li> <Li> 3.5 Lifeboats </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Building and preparing the ship <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Construction , launch and fitting - out </Li> <Li> 4.2 Sea trials </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 Maiden | The iceberg that the Titanic hit was located | [

-7958414179887081456 | pumps are generally located in the fuel tank , in order to use the fuel in the tank to cool the pump and to ensure a steady supply of fuel . </P> <P> Another benefit of an in - tank mounted fuel pump is that a suction pump at the engine could suck in air through a ( difficult to diagnose ) faulty hose connection , while a leaking connection in a pressure line will show itself immediately . A potential hazard of a tank - mounted fuel pump is that all of the fuel lines are under ( high ) pressure , from the tank to the engine . Any leak will be easily detected , but is also hazardous . </P> <H2> Electric pump ( edit ) </H2> A piston metering pump f.e. gasoline -- or additive metering pump <P> In many modern cars the fuel pump is usually electric and located inside the fuel tank . The pump creates positive pressure in the fuel lines , pushing the gasoline to the engine . The higher gasoline pressure raises the boiling point . Placing the pump in the tank puts the component least likely to handle gasoline vapor well ( the pump itself ) farthest from the engine , submersed in cool liquid . Another benefit to placing the pump inside the tank is that it is less likely to start a fire . Though electrical components ( such as a fuel pump ) can spark and ignite fuel vapors , liquid fuel will not explode ( see flammability limit ) and therefore submerging the pump in the tank is one of the safest places to put it . In most cars , the fuel pump delivers a constant flow of gasoline to the engine ; fuel not used is returned to the tank . This further reduces the chance of the fuel boiling , since it is never kept close to the hot engine for too long . </P> Electric fuel pump <P> An advantage of an electric fuel pump is reduced fuel consumption because it does not have the resistance associated with a mechanical drive and because the fuel supply can be monitored more accurately by the electronic control unit ( ECU ) . Pre-delivery of fuel can also be accomplished by an electric fuel pump because it does not depend on engine rpm . Due to this , rapid engine starting can be implemented to conserve gas . This is particularly important in stop - start systems where the engine turns itself off when it senses no use , such as stopped at a stoplight . </P> <P> The ignition switch does not carry the power to the fuel pump ; instead , it activates a relay which will handle the higher current load . It is common for the fuel pump relay to become oxidized and cease functioning ; this is much more common than the actual fuel pump failing . Modern engines utilize solid - state control which allows the fuel pressure to be controlled via pulse - width modulation of the pump voltage . This increases the life of the pump , allows a smaller and lighter device to be used , and reduces electrical load . </P> <P> Cars with electronic fuel injection have an electronic control unit ( ECU ) and this may be programmed with safety logic that will shut the electric fuel pump off , even if the engine is running . In the event of a collision this will prevent fuel leaking from any ruptured fuel line . Additionally , cars may have an inertia switch ( usually located underneath the front passenger seat ) that is `` tripped '' in the event of an impact , or a roll - over valve that will shut off the fuel pump in case the car rolls over . </P> <P> Some ECUs may also be programmed to shut off the fuel pump if they detect low or zero oil pressure , for instance if the engine has suffered a terminal failure ( with the subsequent risk of fire in the engine compartment ) . </P> <P> The fuel sending unit assembly may be a combination of the electric fuel pump , the filter , the strainer , and the electronic device used to measure the amount of fuel in the tank via a float attached to a sensor which sends data to the dash - mounted fuel gauge . The fuel pump by itself is a relatively inexpensive part . But a mechanic at a garage might have a preference to install the entire unit assembly . </P> <H2> Diesel fuel pumps ( edit ) </H2> <P> Diesel fuel pumps operate at a much higher pressure due to the engine 's specs and are usually mechanical pumps such as common rail radial piston pump , common rail two piston radial , inline pump , port and helix , and metering unit design . Radial piston pumps used in cars and trucks are fuel lubricated , this helps with keeping oil out of the high pressure fuel . Oil in the fuel can raise emissions and clog injectors . Many diesel engines are common rail , which means all the injectors are supplied by one pipe full of high pressure fuel supplied by the fuel pump . Common rails dampen the pressure fluctuations when fuel is used by each injector and pumped into the cylinder . Common rails also make it easier for the fuel pressure to be measured by one device instead of one per cylinder . Port and Helix ( plunger type ) high pressure fuel pumps are most commonly used in marine diesels because of their simplicity , reliability , and its ability to be scaled up in proportion to the engine size . </P> <P> Port and Helix type pump </P> <P> Port and Helix pumps are cam driven plunger type pumps that run at one - half engine rpm for four stoke engines and at the same rpm in the case of a two stroke .

It has cordate ( heart shaped ) , sometimes triangular leaves 21⁄2 to 71⁄2 cm long the flowers are borne in panicles , clusted along the rachis producing pink or white flowers from spring to autumn , it forms underground tubers and large rootstocks , it is a prolific seed producer , the seeds float on water , the fruit and seeds are eaten and spread by a wide range of animals such as pigs , raccoons and birds . The tubers will resprout if it is cut back or damaged by frost . </P> A white colored form <H2> Uses ( edit ) </H2> <P> Antigonon leptopus was prepared for consumption by the aboriginal inhabitants of Baja California in a way reminiscent of popcorn . The seeds were toasted by placing them in a flat basket made of flexible twigs torn into several strips and woven to make a solid surface . On top of the seeds they would put live coals , and with both hands they would shake the basket so that the coals come up against the seeds , toasting them but not burning the basket . When the toasting is finished the burned out coals are removed and a major portion of the seeds are burst open exposing a white meal . Afterwards the seeds are separated from the husks from which they have come by dextrously tossing them into the air with the basket , just as wheat is winnowed in Spain . Thus cleaned they would grind and eat the prepared meal . They would also boil it and make fried cakes . </P> <H2> References ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> Jump up ^ `` Taxon : Antigonon leptopus Hook . & Arn '' . Germplasm Resources Information Network .

The theme was said to have been a new version based on the James Bond Theme . The guitar riff heard in the original recording of the theme was played by Flick . </P> <P> The prospect , however , fell apart and Gladys Knight 's song and performance was chosen , later becoming a Top 10 hit in the United Kingdom . The song was composed by Narada Michael Walden , Jeffrey Cohen and Walter Afanasieff , based on the `` horn line '' from Goldfinger , which required royalty payments to the original writers . At five - minutes twelve seconds it is the longest Bond theme . The music video of `` Licence to Kill '' was directed by Daniel Kleinman , who later took over the reins of title designer from Maurice Binder for the 1995 Bond film , GoldenEye . </P> <P> All the instrumental tracks are amalgams of various sequences and musical cues from the film rather than straight score excerpts . The end credits of the film feature the song `` If You Asked Me To '' sung by Patti LaBelle . Though the song was a top ten R&B charter and a minor pop hit for LaBelle , in 1992 , the song was covered by and became a much bigger hit for singer Céline Dion . The track `` Wedding Party '' , used during the wedding of Felix Leiter to Della Churchill , makes reference to the track `` Jump Up '' from the first Bond film , Dr. No . </P> <H2> Track listing ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> `` Licence to Kill '' -- Gladys Knight </Li> <Li> `` Wedding Party '' -- Ivory </Li> <Li> `` Dirty Love '' -- Tim Feehan </Li> <Li> `` Pam '' </Li> <Li> `` If You Asked Me To '' -- Patti LaBelle </Li> <Li> `` James & Felix on Their Way to Church '' </Li> <Li> `` His Funny Valentine '' </Li> <Li> `` Sanchez Is in the Bahamas / Shark Fishing '' </Li> <Li> `` Ninja '' </Li> <Li> `` Licence Revoked '' </Li> </Ol> <P> </P> <Ol> <Li> Jump up ^ contains the James Bond Theme , originally composed for the Dr. No soundtrack </Li> </Ol> <H2> See also ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> Outline of James Bond </Li> </Ul> <H2> References ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> Jump up ^ Rogers , Jude ( 31 October 2008 ) . `` For your ears only '' .

-7477380923799732007 | Lakh - wikipedia <H1> Lakh </H1> Jump to : navigation , search <P> A lakh ( / læk , lɑːk / ; abbreviated L ; sometimes written Lac or Lacs ) is a unit in the Indian numbering system equal to one hundred thousand ( 100,000 ; scientific notation : 10 ) . In the Indian convention of digit grouping , it is written as 1 , 00,000 . For example , in India 150,000 rupees becomes 1.5 lakh rupees , written as ₹ 1 , 50,000 or INR 1 , 50,000 . </P> <P> It is widely used both in official and other contexts in Bangladesh , Bhutan , India , Myanmar , Nepal , Pakistan , and Sri Lanka . It is often used in Indian , Pakistani , and Sri Lankan English . In Pakistan , the word lakh is used mostly in local languages rather than in English media . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Usage <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Money </Li> <Li> 1.2 Silver market </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Etymology and regional variants <Ul> <Li> 2.1 South Asian languages </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 See also </Li> <Li> 4 References </Li> <Li> 5 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Usage ( edit ) </H2> <P> In Indian English , the word is used both as an attributive and non-attributive noun , and with either a marked ( `` - s '' ) or unmarked plural , as in : `` 1 lakh people '' or `` 1 lakh of people '' ; `` 200 lakh rupees '' ; `` 5 lakh of rupees '' ; `` rupees 10 lakhs '' ; or `` 5 lakhs of rupees '' . In the abbreviated form , usage such as `` ₹ 5L '' ( for `` rupees 5 lakhs '' ) is common . In this system of numeration 100 lakh is called one crore and is equal to 10 million . </P> <H3> Money ( edit ) </H3> <P> In colloquial Urdu , especially in the city of Karachi , the word peti ( `` suitcase '' ) is also used to denote one lakh rupees . This originated during the General Zia era , when the largest denomination of currency was the 100 rupee note , and one lakh rupees would fill a small suitcase ( peti as in Bombay Hindi ) . Hence , even after the Zia era , one peti has continued to mean one lakh rupees . </P> <P> The word lakhi is commonly used throughout Tanzania to denote 100,000 shillings and is likely to have entered the Swahili language from Indian and Pakistani immigrants . </P> <H3> Silver market ( edit ) </H3> <P> The term is also used in the pricing of silver on the international precious metals market , where one lakh equals 100,000 troy ounces ( 3,100 kilograms ) of silver . </P> <H2> Etymology and regional variants ( edit ) </H2> <P> The root of the word lakh might be the Pali lakkha ( masculine noun , `` mark , target , stake in gambling '' ) , from which the numerical meaning , `` one hundred thousand '' is derived .

Map of Pangaea with modern continental outlines <P> Pangaea or Pangea ( / pænˈdʒiːə / ) was a supercontinent that existed during the late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic eras . It assembled from earlier continental units approximately 335 million years ago , and it began to break apart about 175 million years ago . In contrast to the present Earth and its distribution of continental mass , much of Pangaea was in the southern hemisphere and surrounded by a superocean , Panthalassa . Pangaea was the most recent supercontinent to have existed and the first to be reconstructed by geologists . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Origin of the concept </Li> <Li> 2 Formation </Li> <Li> 3 Evidence of existence </Li> <Li> 4 Rifting and break - up </Li> <Li> 5 Tectonic plate shift </Li> <Li> 6 Life </Li> <Li> 7 Climate change after Pangaea </Li> <Li> 8 Implications of extinction </Li> <Li> 9 See also </Li> <Li> 10 References </Li> <Li> 11 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Origin of the concept </H2> Life timeline view discuss edit - 4500 -- -- - 4000 -- -- - 3500 -- -- - 3000 -- -- - 2500 -- -- - 2000 -- -- - 1500 -- -- - 1000 -- -- - 500 -- -- 0 -- water Single - celled life photosynthesis Eukaryotes Multicellular life Land life Dinosaurs Mammals Flowers ← Earliest Earth ( − 4540 ) ← Earliest water ← Earliest life ← LHB meteorites ← Earliest oxygen ← Atmospheric oxygen ← Oxygen crisis ← Earliest sexual reproduction ← Ediacara biota ← Cambrian explosion ← Earliest humans h n r o z o i r o r o z o i r h n d n Pongola Huronian Cryogenian Andean Karoo Quaternary Axis scale : millions of years ago . Orange labels : ice ages . Also see : Human timeline and Nature timeline <P> The name `` Pangaea / Pangea '' is derived from Ancient Greek pan ( πᾶν , `` all , entire , whole '' ) and Gaia ( Γαῖα , `` Mother Earth , land '' ) . The concept that the continents once formed a continuous land mass was first proposed by Alfred Wegener , the originator of the scientific theory of continental drift , in his 1912 publication The Origin of Continents ( Die Entstehung der Kontinente ) . He expanded upon his hypothesis in his 1915 book The Origin of Continents and Oceans ( Die Entstehung der Kontinente und Ozeane ) , in which he postulated that , before breaking up and drifting to their present locations , all the continents had formed a single supercontinent that he called the `` Urkontinent '' . </P> <P> The name `` Pangea '' occurs in the 1920 edition of Die Entstehung der Kontinente und Ozeane , but only once , when Wegener refers to the ancient supercontinent as `` the Pangaea of the Carboniferous '' . Wegener used the Germanized form `` Pangäa '' , but the name entered German and English scientific literature ( in 1922 and 1926 , respectively ) in the Latinized form `` Pangaea '' ( of the Greek `` Pangaia '' ) , especially due to a symposium of the American Association of Petroleum Geologists in November 1926 . </P> <H2> Formation </H2> Appalachian orogeny <P> The forming of supercontinents and their breaking up appears to have been cyclical through Earth 's history . There may have been many others before Pangaea . The fourth - last supercontinent , called Columbia or Nuna , appears to have assembled in the period 2.0 -- 1.8 Ga . Columbia / Nuna broke up and the next supercontinent , Rodinia , formed from the accretion and assembly of its fragments . Rodinia lasted from about 1.1 billion years ago ( Ga ) until about 750 million years ago , but its exact configuration and geodynamic history are not nearly as well understood as those of the later supercontinents , Pannotia and Pangaea . </P> <P> When Rodinia broke up , it split into three pieces : the supercontinent of Proto - Laurasia , the supercontinent of Proto - Gondwana , and the smaller Congo craton . Proto - Laurasia and Proto - Gondwana were separated by the Proto - Tethys Ocean . Next Proto - Laurasia itself split apart to form the continents of Laurentia , Siberia and Baltica . Baltica moved to the east of Laurentia , and Siberia moved northeast of Laurentia . The splitting also created two new oceans , the Iapetus Ocean and Paleoasian Ocean . Most of the above masses coalesced again to form the relatively short - lived supercontinent of Pannotia . This supercontinent included large amounts of land near the poles and , near the equator , only a relatively small strip connecting the polar masses . Pannotia lasted until 540 Ma , near the beginning of the Cambrian period and then broke up , giving rise to the continents of Laurentia , Baltica , and the southern supercontinent of Gondwana . </P> <P> In the Cambrian period , the continent of Laurentia , which would later become North America , sat on the equator , with three bordering oceans : the Panthalassic Ocean to the north and west , the Iapetus Ocean to the south and the Khanty Ocean to the east . In the Earliest Ordovician , around 480 Ma , the microcontinent of Avalonia -- a landmass incorporating fragments of what would become eastern Newfoundland , the southern British Isles , and parts of Belgium , northern France , Nova Scotia , New England , South Iberia and northwest Africa -- broke free from Gondwana and began its journey to Laurentia . Baltica , Laurentia , and Avalonia all came together by the end of the Ordovician to form a minor supercontinent called Euramerica or Laurussia , closing the Iapetus Ocean .

-1411792450237623098 | As pathogens in the body , helminths induce an immune response . Immune - mediated inflammatory changes occur in the skin , lung , liver , intestine , central nervous system , and eyes . Signs of the body 's immune response may include eosinophilia , edema , and arthritis . An example of the immune response is the hypersensitivity reaction that may lead to anaphylaxis . Another example is the migration of Ascaris larvae through the bronchi of the lungs causing asthma . </P> <H2> Secondary effects ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Immune changes ( edit ) </H3> See also : Effects of parasitic worms on the immune system Micrograph of cut section of human appendix showing a pin worm . <P> In humans , T helper cells and eosinophils respond to helminth infestation . Inflammation leads to encapsulation of egg deposits throughout the body . Helminths excrete into the intestine toxic substances after they feed . These substances then enter the circulatory and lymphatic systems of the host body . </P> <P> Chronic immune responses to helminthiasis may lead to increased susceptibility to other infections such as tuberculosis , HIV , and malaria . There is conflicting information about whether deworming reduces HIV progression and viral load and increases CD4 counts in antiretroviral naive and experienced individuals . </P> <H3> Chronic illness ( edit ) </H3> <P> Chronic helminthiasis may cause severe morbidity . Helminthiasis has been found to result in poor birth outcome , poor cognitive development , poor school and work performance , decreased productivity , poor socioeconomic development , and poverty . </P> <H3> Malnutrition ( edit ) </H3> <P> Helminthiasis may cause chronic illness through malnutrition including vitamin deficiencies , stunted growth , anemia , and protein - energy malnutrition . Worms compete directly with their hosts for nutrients , but the magnitude of this effect is likely minimal as the nutritional requirements of worms is relatively small . In pigs and humans , Ascaris has been linked to lactose intolerance and vitamin A , amino acid , and fat malabsorption . Impaired nutrient uptake may result from direct damage to the intestinal mucosal wall or from more subtle changes such as chemical imbalances and changes in gut flora . Alternatively , the worms ' release of protease inhibitors to defend against the body 's digestive processes may impair the breakdown of other nutrients . In addition , worm induced diarrhoea may shorten gut transit time , thus reducing absorption of nutrients . </P> <P> Malnutrition due to worms can give rise to anorexia . A study of 459 children in Zanzibar revealed spontaneous increases in appetite after deworming . Anorexia might be a result of the body 's immune response and the stress of combating infection . Specifically , some of the cytokines released in the immune response to worm infestation have been linked to anorexia in animals . </P> <H3> Anemia ( edit ) </H3> <P> Helminths may cause iron - deficiency anemia . This is most severe in heavy hookworm infections , as Necator americanus and Ancylostoma duodenale feed directly on the blood of their hosts . Although the daily consumption of an individual worm ( 0.02 -- 0.07 ml and 0.14 -- 0.26 ml respectively ) is small , the collective consumption under heavy infection can be clinically significantly . Intestinal whipworm may also cause anemia . Anemia has also been associated with reduced stamina for physical labor , a decline in the ability to learn new information , and apathy , irritability , and fatigue . A study of the effect of deworming and iron supplementation in 47 students from the Democratic Republic of the Congo found that the intervention improved cognitive function . Another study found that in 159 Jamaican schoolchildren , deworming led to better auditory short - term memory and scanning and retrieval of long - term memory over a period of nine - weeks . </P> <H3> Cognitive changes ( edit ) </H3> <P> Malnutrition due to helminths may affect cognitive function leading to low educational performance , decreased concentration and difficulty with abstract cognitive tasks . Iron deficiency in infants and preschoolers is associated with `` lower scores ... on tests of mental and motor development ... ( as well as ) increased fearfulness , inattentiveness , and decreased social responsiveness '' . Studies in the Philippines and Indonesia found a significant correlation between helminthiasis and decreased memory and fluency . Large parasite burdens , particularly severe hookworm infections , are also associated with absenteeism , under - enrollment , and attrition in school children . </P> <H2> Helminths types causing infections ( edit ) </H2> Ascaris life cycle : Adult worms in the lumen of the small intestine ( 1 ) . The female produces eggs ( approximately 200,000 per day ) that are excreted with the feces ( 2 ) . Unfertilized eggs are harmless , but fertilized ones are infective after 18 days to several weeks ( 3 ) . Infective eggs are ingested ( 4 ) , enter the gut ( 5 ) , develop into larvae in the intestine , and penetrate the blood vessel to enter lungs , where they develop further ( 6 ) , after 10 to 14 days , penetrate the alveolar walls , ascend the bronchial tree to the throat , and are re-swallowed ( 7 ) . Upon reaching the small intestine , they develop into adult worms ( 8 ) . It takes 2 to 3 months for one complete cycle . Adult worms can live 1 to 2 years .

-1092628173964573043 | . </P> <H3> Network television : 1959 -- 1982 ( edit ) </H3> See also : List of Rocky and Bullwinkle episodes <P> The show was broadcast for the first time on November 19 , 1959 , on the ABC television network under the title Rocky and His Friends twice a week , on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons , following American Bandstand at 5 : 30 p.m. ET , where it was the highest - rated daytime network program . The show moved to the NBC network starting September 24 , 1961 , broadcast in color , and first appeared on Sundays at 7 p.m. ET , just before Walt Disney 's Wonderful World of Color . Bullwinkle 's ratings suffered as a result of airing opposite perennial favorite Lassie . A potential move to CBS caused NBC to reschedule the show to late Sunday afternoons ( 5 : 30 p.m. ET ) and early Saturday afternoons in its final season . NBC canceled the show in the summer of 1964 . It was shopped to ABC , but they were not interested . However , reruns of episodes were aired on ABC 's Sunday morning schedule at 11 a.m. ET until 1973 , at which time the series went into syndication . An abbreviated fifteen - minute version of the series ran in syndication in the 1960s under the title The Rocky Show . This version was sometimes shown in conjunction with The King and Odie , a fifteen - minute version of Total Television 's King Leonardo and His Short Subjects . The King and Odie was similar to Rocky and Bullwinkle in that it was sponsored by General Mills and animated by Gamma Productions . NBC later aired Bullwinkle Show reruns at 12 : 30 p.m. ET Saturday afternoons during the 1981 -- 1982 television season . </P> <P> On cable , the series had extended runs on Nickelodeon ( 1990 -- 1994 ) , Cartoon Network ( 1993 -- 2002 ) and Boomerang ( early 2000s ) . Since the late 2000s , The Program Exchange has typically only licensed the series for short - term runs ; nationally , the series has seen limited airings on WGN America ( 2009 ) , VH1 Classic ( 2012 ) and Boomerang ( 2013 ) . </P> <H3> Syndicated package ( edit ) </H3> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> This section needs additional citations for verification . Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources . Unsourced material may be challenged and removed . ( May 2013 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) </Td> </Tr> </Table> <P> The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show remained in syndicated reruns and was still available for local television stations through The Program Exchange as late as 2016 ; WBBZ - TV , for instance , aired the show in a strip to counterprogram 10 PM newscasts in the Buffalo , New York market during the summer 2013 season . The underlying rights are now owned by Universal Pictures , which holds the library of predecessor companies DreamWorks Animation and Classic Media , and who in turn with copyright holder Ward Productions forms the joint venture Bullwinkle Studios , which manages the Rocky and Bullwinkle properties ; Universal 's purchase of Classic Media coincided with The Program Exchange 's shutdown . </P> <P> Sponsor General Mills retained all United States television rights to the series . Two packages , each containing different episodes , are available . The syndicated version of The Bullwinkle Show contains 98 half - hour shows ( # 801 -- 898 ) . The first 78 comprise the Rocky & Bullwinkle story lines from the first two seasons of the original series ( these segments originally aired under the Rocky and His Friends title ) . Other elements in the half - hour shows ( Fractured Fairy Tales , Peabody 's Improbable History , Dudley Do - Right of the Mounties , Aesop and Son , and short cartoons including Bullwinkle 's Corner and Mr. Know - It - All ) sometimes appear out of the original broadcast sequence . The final 20 syndicated Bullwinkle Show episodes feature later Rocky & Bullwinkle story lines ( from `` Bumbling Bros. Circus '' through the end of the series , minus `` Moosylvania '' ) along with Fractured Fairy Tales , Bullwinkle 's Corner , and Mr. Know - It - All segments repeated from earlier in the syndicated episode cycle . Originally , many syndicated shows included segments of Total Television 's The World of Commander McBragg , but these cartoons were replaced with other segments when the shows were remastered in the early 1990s . A package , promoted under the Rocky and His Friends name but utilizing The Rocky Show titles , features story lines not included in the syndicated Bullwinkle Show series . </P> <P> The most recently syndicated Rocky and His Friends package retains the 15 - minute format , consisting of 156 individual episodes , but like The Bullwinkle Show , the content differs from the versions syndicated in the 1960s . The various supporting segments , including Fractured Fairy Tales ( 91 ) , Peabody 's Improbable History ( 91 ) , and Aesop and Son ( 39 ) segments are syndicated as part of Tennessee Tuxedo and His Tales , and 38 of the 39 Dudley Do - Right cartoons are syndicated as part of Dudley Do Right ( sic ) and Friends . Syndicated versions of the shows distributed outside of the United States and Canada combine the various segments under the package title Rocky and Bullwinkle and Friends ; it is this version of the show that is represented on official DVD releases through DreamWorks Classics and the official online version found on Hulu . </P> <H2> Characters ( edit ) </H2> ( From left to right ) Rocky , Bullwinkle , and Captain Peter Peachfuzz . <P> The lead characters and heroes of the series were Rocket `` Rocky '' J.

He ordered his troops to defend their country only if attacked and not to carry the war beyond its borders . He directed them to avoid killing any of the invaders other than the regular British soldiers in their red coats . </P> <H2> British invasion and repulse ( edit ) </H2> Main articles : Battle of Inyezane , Battle of Isandlwana , Battle of Rorke 's Drift , Siege of Eshowe , Battle of Intombe , Battle of Hlobane , Battle of Kambula , and Battle of Gingindlovu Battle of Isandlwana painting by Charles Edwin Fripp ( 1854 -- 1906 ) <P> The pretext for the war had its origins in border disputes between the Zulu leader , Cetshwayo , and the Boers in the Transvaal region . Following a commission enquiry on the border dispute which reported in favour of the Zulu nation in July 1878 , Sir Henry Bartle Frere , acting on his own , added an ultimatum to the commission meeting , much to the surprise of the Zulu representatives who then relayed it to Cetshwayo . Cetshwayo had not responded by the end of the year , so an extension was granted by Bartle Frere until 11 January 1879 . Cetshwayo returned no answer to the demands of Bartle Frere , and in January 1879 a British force under Lieutenant General Frederick Augustus Thesiger , 2nd Baron Chelmsford invaded Zululand , without authorization by the British Government . </P> <P> Lord Chelmsford , the Commander - in - Chief of British forces during the war , initially planned a five - pronged invasion of Zululand composed of over 15,000 troops in five columns and designed to encircle the Zulu army and force it to fight as he was concerned that the Zulus would avoid battle . In the event , Chelmsford settled on three invading columns with the main center column , now consisting of some 7800 men comprising the previously called No. 3 Column and Durnford 's No. 2 Column , under his direct command . He moved his troops from Pietermaritzburg to a forward camp at Helpmekaar , past Greytown . On 9 January 1879 they moved to Rorke 's Drift , and early on 11 January commenced crossing the Buffalo River into Zululand . Three columns were to invade Zululand , from the Lower Tugela , Rorke 's Drift , and Utrecht respectively , their objective being Ulundi , the royal capital . </P> <P> While Cetshwayo 's army numbered perhaps 35,000 men , it was essentially a militia force which could be called out in time of national danger . It had a very limited logistical capacity and could only stay in the field a few weeks before the troops would be obliged to return to their civilian duties . Zulu warriors were armed primarily with Assegai thrusting spears , known in Zulu as iklwa , clubs , some throwing spears and shields made of cowhide . </P> <P> The initial entry of all three columns was unopposed . On 22 January the centre column , which had advanced from Rorke 's Drift , was encamped near Isandlwana ; on the morning of that day Lord Chelmsford split his forces and moved out to support a reconnoitering party , leaving the camp in charge of Colonel Pulleine . The British were outmanoeuvred by the main Zulu army nearly 20,000 strong led by Ntshingwayo kaMahole Khoza . Chelmsford was lured eastward with much of his centre column by a Zulu diversionary force while the main Impi attacked his camp . Chelmsford 's decision not to set up the British camp defensively , contrary to established doctrine , and ignoring information that the Zulus were close at hand were decisions that the British | The leader of the Zulu in South Africa who led the fight against the British was | [

Common examples include the following : </P> Blondes of different shades at WTMD 's First Thursday series in Canton , Baltimore , Maryland , United States , in June 2014 <Ul> <Li> ash - blond : ashen or grayish blond . </Li> <Li> bleached blond , bottle blond , or peroxide blond : terms used to refer to artificially colored blond hair . </Li> <Li> blond / flaxen : when distinguished from other varieties , `` blond '' by itself refers to a light but not whitish blond , with no traces of red , gold , or brown ; this color is often described as `` flaxen '' . </Li> <Li> dirty blond or dishwater blond : dark blond with flecks of golden blond and brown . </Li> <Li> golden blond : a darker to rich , golden - yellow blond ( found mostly in Northeastern Europe , i.e. , Russia , Estonia ) . </Li> <Li> honey blond : dark iridescent blond . </Li> <Li> platinum blond or towheaded : whitish - blond ; almost all platinum blonds are children , although it is found on people in Northern Europe . `` Platinum blond '' is often used to describe bleached hair , while `` towheaded '' generally refers to natural hair color . </Li> <Li> sandy blond : grayish - hazel or cream - colored blond . </Li> <Li> strawberry blond or Venetian blond : reddish blond </Li> <Li> yellow : yellow - blond ( `` yellow '' can also be used to refer to hair which has been dyed yellow ) . </Li> </Ul> <Ul> <Li> <P> A woman with long blonde hair </P> </Li> <Li> <P> A young man with light blond hair </P> </Li> <Li> <P> A woman with long blonde hair from behind </P> </Li> </Ul> <H2> Evolution of blond hair </H2> <P> Natural lighter hair colors occur most often in Europe and less frequently in other areas . In Northern European populations , the occurrence of blond hair is very frequent . The hair color gene MC1R has at least seven variants in Europe , giving the continent a wide range of hair and eye shades . Based on a genetic research carried out at three Japanese universities , the date of the genetic mutation that resulted in blond hair in Europe has been isolated to about 11,000 years ago during the last ice age . </P> <P> A typical explanation found in the scientific literature for the evolution of light hair is related to the evolution of light skin , and in turn the requirement for vitamin D synthesis and northern Europe 's seasonal less solar radiation . Lighter skin is due to a low concentration in pigmentation , thus allowing more sunlight to trigger the production of vitamin D. In this way , high frequencies of light hair in northern latitudes are a result of the light skin adaptation to lower levels of solar radiation , which reduces the prevalence of rickets caused by vitamin D deficiency . The darker pigmentation at higher latitudes in certain ethnic groups such as the Inuit is explained by a greater proportion of seafood in their diet and by the climate which they live in , because in the polar climate there is more ice or snow on the ground , and this reflects the solar radiation onto the skin , making this environment lack the conditions for the person to have blond , brown or red hair , light skin and blue , grey or green eyes . </P> <P> An alternative hypothesis was presented by Canadian anthropologist Peter Frost , who claims blond hair evolved very quickly in a specific area at the end of the last ice age by means of sexual selection . According to Frost , the appearance of blond hair and blue eyes in some northern European women made them stand out from their rivals , and more sexually appealing to men , at a time of fierce competition for scarce males . </P> <P> Recent archaeological and genetic study published in 2014 found that seven `` Scandinavian hunter - gatherers '' found in the 7,700 - year - old Motala archaeological site in southern Sweden had both light skin gene variants , SLC24A5 and SLC45A2 , and that they had a third gene , HERC2 / OCA2 , which causes blue eyes and also contributes to lighter skin and blond hair . Genetic research published in 2014 and 2015 also indicates that Yamnaya Proto - Indo - Europeans who migrated to Europe in the Bronze Age were overwhelmingly dark - eyed ( brown ) , dark - haired and had a skin colour that was moderately light , though somewhat darker than that of the average modern European . Light pigmentation traits had already existed in pre-Indo - European Europeans ( both farmers and hunter - gatherers ) , and long - standing philological attempts to correlate them with the arrival of Indo - Europeans from the steppes were misguided . </P> <P> It is now hypothesized by researchers that blond hair evolved more than once . Published in May 2012 in Science , a study of people from the Solomon Islands in Melanesia found that an amino acid change in TYRP1 produced blonde hair . </P> <H2> Prevalence </H2> Toddler with golden blonde hair <P> Blond hair is most common in light - skinned infants and children , so much so that the term `` baby blond '' is often used for very light colored hair . Babies may be born with blond hair even among groups where adults rarely have blond hair , although such natural hair usually falls out quickly .

It was written by all four members of the band for their third studio album , X&Y ( 2005 ) . The track is built around an organ accompanied by slow tempo drums and vocals . </P> <P> It was released on 5 September 2005 as the second single from X&Y and has reached number 4 on the UK Singles Chart . The song reached number 18 in the United States Billboard Hot Modern Rock Tracks . Promo singles were released for the UK and US . Blythe Danner , the mother of Gwyneth Paltrow and former mother - in - law of Chris Martin , stated in an interview in May 2012 that Martin ' wrote the song for Gwyneth when her father died and I weep every time I hear it ' . </P> <P> `` Fix You '' was critically acclaimed by music critics . It has been widely sampled , with different covers and sounds . The music video was garnered as a tribute to the 7 July 2005 London bombings . The guitar solo of `` Fix You '' is currently used as the player introduction at all of the National Hockey League 's Montreal Canadiens ' home games , during the three stars of the game selection after every Los Angeles Kings home win , and was played at Staples Center as the Stanley Cup was brought on the ice after the Kings ' victory in the 2014 Stanley Cup Final .

Of particular importance and unique to vertebrates is the presence of neural crest cells . These are progenitors of stem cells , and critical to coordinating the functions of cellular components . Neural crest cells migrate through the body from the nerve cord during development , and initiate the formation of neural ganglia and structures such as the jaws and skull . </P> <P> The vertebrates are the only chordate group to exhibit cephalisation , the concentration of brain functions in the head . A slight swelling of the anterior end of the nerve cord is found in the lancelet , a chordate , though it lacks the eyes and other complex sense organs comparable to those of vertebrates . Other chordates do not show any trends towards cephalisation . </P> <P> A peripheral nervous system branches out from the nerve cord to innervate the various systems . The front end of the nerve tube is expanded by a thickening of the walls and expansion of the central canal of spinal cord into three primary brain vesicles : The prosencephalon ( forebrain ) , mesencephalon ( midbrain ) and rhombencephalon ( hindbrain ) , further differentiated in the various vertebrate groups . Two laterally placed eyes form around outgrowths from the midbrain , except in hagfish , though this may be a secondary loss . The forebrain is well developed and subdivided in most tetrapods , while the midbrain dominates in many fish and some salamanders . Vesicles of the forebrain are usually paired , giving rise to hemispheres like the cerebral hemispheres in mammals . </P> <P> The resulting anatomy of the central nervous system , with a single hollow nerve cord topped by a series of ( often paired ) vesicles , is unique to vertebrates . All invertebrates with well - developed brains , such as insects , spiders and squids , have a ventral rather than dorsal system of ganglions , with a split brain stem running on each side of the mouth or gut . </P> <H2> Evolutionary history ( edit ) </H2> See also : Evolution of fish and Evolution of tetrapods <H3> First vertebrates ( edit ) </H3> The early vertebrate Haikouichthys <P> Vertebrates originated about 525 million years ago during the Cambrian explosion , which saw the rise in organism diversity . The earliest known vertebrate is believed to be the Myllokunmingia . Another early vertebrate is Haikouichthys ercaicunensis . Unlike the other fauna that dominated the Cambrian , these groups had the basic vertebrate body plan : a notochord , rudimentary vertebrae , and a well - defined head and tail . All of these early vertebrates lacked jaws in the common sense and relied on filter feeding close to the seabed . A vertebrate group of uncertain phylogeny , small - eel - like conodonts , are known from microfossils of their paired tooth segments from the late Cambrian to the end of the Triassic . </P> <H3> From fish to amphibians ( edit ) </H3> Acanthostega , a fish - like early labyrinthodont . <P> The first jawed vertebrates appeared in the latest Ordovician and became common in the Devonian , often known as the `` Age of Fishes '' . The two groups of bony fishes , the actinopterygii and sarcopterygii , evolved and became common . The Devonian also saw the demise of virtually all jawless fishes , save for lampreys and hagfish , as well as the Placodermi , a group of armoured fish that dominated the entirety of that period since the late Silurian . The Devonian also saw the rise of the first labyrinthodonts , which was a transitional form between fishes and amphibians . </P> <H3> Mesozoic vertebrates ( edit ) </H3> <P> Amniotes branched from labyrinthodonts in the subsequent Carboniferous period . The Parareptilia and synapsid amniotes were common during the late Paleozoic , while diapsids became dominant during the Mesozoic . In the sea , the bony fishes became dominant ; the birds , a derived form of dinosaurs , evolved in the Jurassic . The demise of the non-avian dinosaurs at the end of the Cretaceous allowed for the expansion of mammals , which had evolved from the therapsids , a group of synapsid amniotes , during the late Triassic Period . </P> <H3> After the Mesozoic ( edit ) </H3> <P> The Cenozoic world has seen great diversification of bony fishes , frogs , birds and mammals . </P> <P> Over half of all living vertebrate species ( about 32,000 species ) are fish ( non-tetrapod craniates ) , a diverse set of lineages that inhabit all the world 's aquatic ecosystems , from snow minnows ( Cypriniformes ) in Himalayan lakes at elevations over 4,600 metres ( 15,100 feet ) to flatfishes ( order Pleuronectiformes ) in the Challenger Deep , the deepest ocean trench at about 11,000 metres ( 36,000 feet ) . Fishes of myriad varieties are the main predators in most of the world 's water bodies , both freshwater and marine . The rest of the vertebrate species are tetrapods , a single lineage that includes amphibians ( with roughly 7,000 species ) ; mammals ( with approximately 5,500 species ) ; and reptiles and birds ( with about 20,000 species divided evenly between the two classes ) .

The 1974 television film called Wonder Woman directed by Vincent McEveety and starring Cathy Lee Crosby , was a pilot for an intended television series being considered by ABC . Ratings were described as `` respectable but not exactly wondrous , '' and ABC did not pick up the pilot . Instead , Warner Bros. and ABC developed the 1975 television series , Wonder Woman , that fit the more traditional presentation of the character as created by William Moulton Marston , turning away from the 1968 -- 72 era that had influenced the pilot . Wonder Woman , which premiered in 1975 , starred Lynda Carter and eventually led to the full series .

Since the 19th century , U.S. foreign policy also has been characterized by a shift from the realist school to the idealistic or Wilsonian school of international relations . </P> <P> Foreign policy themes were expressed considerably in George Washington 's farewell address ; these included among other things , observing good faith and justice towards all nations and cultivating peace and harmony with all , excluding both `` inveterate antipathies against particular nations , and passionate attachments for others '' , `` steer ( ing ) clear of permanent alliances with any portion of the foreign world '' , and advocating trade with all nations . These policies became the basis of the Federalist Party in the 1790s . But the rival Jeffersonians feared Britain and favored France in the 1790s , declaring the War of 1812 on Britain .

That sort of thing does not seem to be in the cards at the moment . </P> <P> Within a year of this statement and having held month - long discussions about the proposal , on December 3 , 1936 , the idea of `` the formation of an Ivy League '' gained enough traction among the undergraduate bodies of the universities that the Columbia Daily Spectator , The Cornell Daily Sun , The Dartmouth , The Harvard Crimson , The Daily Pennsylvanian , The Daily Princetonian and the Yale Daily News would simultaneously run an editorial entitled `` Now Is the Time '' , encouraging the seven universities to form the league in an effort to preserve the ideals of athletics . Part of the editorial read as follows : </P> <P> The Ivy League exists already in the minds of a good many of those connected with football , and we fail to see why the seven schools concerned should be satisfied to let it exist as a purely nebulous entity where there are so many practical benefits which would be possible under definite organized association . The seven colleges involved fall naturally together by reason of their common interests and similar general standards and by dint of their established national reputation they are in a particularly advantageous position to assume leadership for the preservation of the ideals of intercollegiate athletics . </P> <P> The Ivies have been competing in sports as long as intercollegiate sports have existed in the United States . Rowing teams from Harvard and Yale met in the first sporting event held between students of two U.S. colleges on Lake Winnipesaukee , New Hampshire , on August 3 , 1852 . Harvard 's team , `` The Oneida '' , won the race and was presented with trophy black walnut oars from then presidential nominee General Franklin Pierce . The proposal did not succeed -- on January 11 , 1937 , the athletic authorities at the schools rejected the `` possibility of a heptagonal league in football such as these institutions maintain in basketball , baseball and track . '' However , they noted that the league `` has such promising possibilities that it may not be dismissed and must be the subject of further consideration . '' </P> Post -- World War ii Students in Stell Hall at Dartmouth 's Tuck School of Business , 2007 Students of Yale College , 1866 <P> In 1945 the presidents of the eight schools signed the first Ivy Group Agreement , which set academic , financial , and athletic standards for the football teams . The principles established reiterated those put forward in the Harvard - Yale - Princeton Presidents ' Agreement of 1916 . The Ivy Group Agreement established the core tenet that an applicant 's ability to play on a team would not influence admissions decisions : </P> <P> The members of the Group reaffirm their prohibition of athletic scholarships . Athletes shall be admitted as students and awarded financial aid only on the basis of the same academic standards and economic need as are applied to all other students . </P> <P> In 1954 , the presidents extended the Ivy Group Agreement to all intercollegiate sports , effective with the 1955 -- 56 basketball season . This is generally reckoned as the formal formation of the Ivy League . As part of the transition , Brown , the only Ivy that had n't joined the EIBL , did so for the 1954 -- 55 season . A year later , the Ivy League absorbed the EIBL . The Ivy League claims the EIBL 's history as its own . Through the EIBL , it is the oldest basketball conference in Division I . </P> <P> As late as the 1960s many of the Ivy League universities ' undergraduate programs remained open only to men , with Cornell the only one to have been coeducational from its founding ( 1865 ) and Columbia being the last ( 1983 ) to become coeducational . Before they became coeducational , many of the Ivy schools maintained extensive social ties with nearby Seven Sisters women 's colleges , including weekend visits , dances and parties inviting Ivy and Seven Sisters students to mingle . This was the case not only at Barnard College and Radcliffe College , which are adjacent to Columbia and Harvard , but at more distant institutions as well .

The central character of the novel is a dog named Buck . The story opens at a ranch in Santa Clara Valley , California , when Buck is stolen from his home and sold into service as a sled dog in Alaska . He becomes progressively feral in the harsh environment , where he is forced to fight to survive and dominate other dogs . By the end , he sheds the veneer of civilization , and relies on primordial instinct and learned experience to emerge as a leader in the wild . </P> <P> London spent almost a year in the Yukon , and his observations form much of the material for the book . The story was serialized in the Saturday Evening Post in the summer of 1903 and was published a month later in book form . The book 's great popularity and success made a reputation for London . As early as 1923 , the story was adapted to film , and it has since seen several more cinematic adaptations . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Summary </Li> <Li> 2 Background </Li> <Li> 3 Publication history <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Editions </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Genre </Li> <Li> 5 Themes </Li> <Li> 6 Writing style </Li> <Li> 7 Reception and legacy </Li> <Li> 8 References </Li> <Li> 9 Further reading </Li> <Li> 10 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Summary ( edit ) </H2> <P> The story opens with Buck , a large and powerful St. Bernard - Scotch Shepherd , living happily in California 's Santa Clara Valley as the pampered pet of rich Judge Miller and his family . However , he is stolen by the gardener 's assistant , Manuel , and sold to finance his gambling addiction . He is shipped to Seattle . Put in a crate , he is starved and ill - treated . When released , he attacks his overseer , known only as the `` man in the red sweater '' but is badly beaten and taught to respect the `` law of the club '' . Buck is then sold to a pair of French - Canadian dispatchers from the Canadian government , François and Perrault , who take him with them to the Klondike region of Canada . There , they train him as a sled dog . From his teammates , he quickly learns to survive cold winter nights and the pack society . A rivalry develops between Buck and the vicious , quarrelsome lead dog , Spitz . Buck eventually beats Spitz in a fight . Spitz is killed by the pack after his defeat by Buck , and Buck eventually becomes the leader of the team . </P> <P> When Francois and Perrault reach Dawson with their dispatches , and are given new orders from the Canadian government , the team is then sold to a `` Scottish half - breed '' man , who is also working the mail service . The dogs must carry heavy loads to the mining areas , and the journeys they make are tiresome and long . One of the team , a morose husky named Dave , becomes sick and is eventually shot . </P> <P> Buck 's next owners are a trio of stampeders ( Hal , Charles , and a woman named Mercedes from the United States ) , who are inexperienced at surviving in the Northern wilderness . They struggle to control the sled and ignore warnings that the spring melt poses dangers . They overfeed the dogs and then starve them when the food runs out . On their journey they meet John Thornton , an experienced outdoorsman , who notices the dogs have been poorly treated and are in a weakened condition . He warns the trio against crossing the river , but they ignore his advice and order Buck to move on . Exhausted , starving , and sensing the danger ahead , Buck refuses and continues to lie unmoving in the snow . After Buck is beaten by Hal , Thornton recognizes him to be a remarkable dog .

7549291271483002097 | Satavahana government is not clear . The Pandavleni Caves inscription issued during the reign of Kanha states that the cave was excavated by maha - matra ( officer - in - charge ) of the shramanas ( non-Vedic ascetics ) . Based on this , Sudhakar Chattopadhyaya concludes that Kanha favoured Buddhism , and had an administrative department dedicated to the welfare of Buddhist monks . </P> <P> However , Carla M. Sinopoli notes that although there are some records of donations to the Buddhist monasteries by the Satavahana royals , the vast majority of the donations were made by the non-royals . The most common among these donors were merchants , and many of the monasteries were located along the important trade routes . The merchants probably donated to the monasteries , because these sites facilitated trade by serving as rest houses , and possibly by directly participating in the trade . The monasteries appear to have been an important venue for displaying charitable donations , including the donations made to non-Buddhists ( especially Brahmins ) . </P> <H2> Inscriptions </H2> The inscription on the Southern Gateway at Sanchi mentioning `` Gift of Ananda , the son of Vasithi , the foreman of the artisans of rajan Siri Satakarni '' ( the inscription is written in three lines over the dome of the stupa in this relief ) . Circa 50 BCE - 0 CE . <P> Several Brahmi script inscriptions are available from the Satavahana period , but most of these record donations to Buddhist institutions by individuals , and do not provide much information about the dynasty . The inscriptions issued by the Satavahana royals themselves also primarily concern religious donations , although some of them provide some information about the rulers and the imperial structure . </P> <P> The earliest extant Satavahana inscription is from Nashik Cave 19 , which states that the cave was commissioned by Mahamatra Saman of Nashik during the reign of king Kanha . </P> <P> At Naneghat , an inscription issued by Nayanika , the widow of Satakarni I , has been found . It records Nayanika 's lineage and mentions the Vedic sacrifices performed by the royal family . Another inscription at Naneghat comprises names of Satavahana royals , appearing as labels over their bas - relief portraits . The portraits are now completely eroded , but the inscription is believed to be contemporary to Nayanika 's inscription on a paleographic basis . </P> <P> The next oldest Satavahana - era inscription appears on a sculpted gateway element of Stupa 1 at Sanchi . It states that the element was donated by Ananda , who was the son of Siri Satakarni 's foreman of artisans . This inscription is probably from the reign of Satakarni II . </P> <H2> Coinage </H2> <P> The Satavahanas are among the earliest Indian rulers to issue their own coins with portraits of their rulers , starting with king Gautamiputra Satakarni , a practice derived from that of the Western Kshatrapas he defeated , itself originating with the Indo - Greek kings to the northwest . </P> <P> Thousands of lead , copper and potin Satavahana coins have been discovered in the Deccan region ; a few gold and silver coins are also available . These coins do not feature uniform design or size , and suggest that multiple minting locations existed within the Satavahana territory , leading to regional differences in coinage . </P> <P> The coin legends of the Satavahanas , in all areas and all periods , used a Prakrit dialect without exception . Some reverse coin legends are in Tamil , and Telugu languages . </P> <P> Several coins carry titles or matronyms that were common to multiple rulers ( e.g. Satavahana , Satakarni , and Pulumavi ) , so the number of rulers attested by coinage can not be determined with certainty . The names of 16 to 20 rulers appear on the various coins . Some of these rulers appear to be local elites rather than the Satavahana monarchs . </P> <P> The Satavahana coins give unique indications as to their chronology , language , and even facial features ( curly hair , long ears and strong lips ) . They issued mainly lead and copper coins ; their portrait - style silver coins were usually struck over coins of the Western Kshatrapa kings . The Satavahana coins also display various traditional symbols , such as elephants , lions , horses and chaityas ( stupas ) , as well as the `` Ujjain symbol '' , a cross with four circles at the end . </P> <Ul> <Li> <P> Early Satavahana coinage , Satakarni issue , Maharashtra -- Vidarbha type , 1st century BCE . </P> </Li> <Li> <P> Satavahana 1st century BCE coin inscribed in Brahmi : `` ( Sataka ) Nisa '' . British Museum </P> </Li> <Li> <P> Coin of Gautamiputra Yajna Satakarni ( r . 167 -- 196 CE ) . </P> </Li> </Ul> <H2> Cultural achievements </H2> <P> The Satavahanas patronised the Prakrit language instead of Sanskrit . The Satavahana king Hāla is famous for compiling the collection of Maharashtri poems known as the Gaha Sattasai ( Sanskrit : Gāthā Saptashatī ) , although from linguistic evidence it seems that the work now extant must have been re-edited in the succeeding century or two . Through this book , it was evident that agriculture was the main means of livelihood . Also many sorts of superstitions had prevailed . Additionally , Gunadhya , the minister of Hala , was the author of Brihatkatha . </P> <H3> Sculptures </H3> <P> Madhukar Keshav Dhavalikar writes that `` The Satavahana sculptures unfortunately has never been recognized as an independent school in spite of the fact it has its own distinctive characteristic features . The earliest in point of time is that in the Bhaja Vihara cave which marks the beginning of sculptural art in the Satavahana dominion around 200BC .

Sasha Fierce ( 2008 ) . It was written by BC Jean and Toby Gad , who also handled its production alongside Beyoncé . Inspired by the difficult break - up of a romantic relationship , the song was initially recorded by Jean , whose record company rejected it . Beyoncé then recorded her own version . Jean was upset when she learned that Beyoncé was releasing it as a single , but eventually , they reached an agreement . Columbia Records released `` If I Were a Boy '' to US radio on October 8 , 2008 , as a double A-side single album 's alongside `` Single Ladies ( Put a Ring on It ) '' as the lead singles . The two songs showcased the contrast between Beyoncé 's personality and her aggressive onstage persona , Sasha Fierce . A Spanish version of the song , titled `` Si Yo Fuera un Chico '' , was digitally released in Mexico and Spain . </P> <P> `` If I Were a Boy '' is a pop and R&B introspective ballad which draws influences from folk rock through its instrumentation of which includes acoustic guitars , drums and strings . The song 's lyrics lament the misunderstandings between the genders and indict the male side of relationships . `` If I Were a Boy '' was well received by critics , who complimented Beyoncé 's tormented and emotive vocal performance and called the song her best work to date . The single was a commercial success as it placed in the top ten on twenty - five different singles charts . It topped the charts in more than eight European countries , including the United Kingdom , where it is Beyoncé 's best - selling single . `` If I Were a Boy '' peaked at number three on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart and earned multi-platinum certifications in Australia , Canada , and the US . </P> <P> The accompanying music video for `` If I Were a Boy '' was directed by Jake Nava and shot in black - and - white . With a theme of role reversal , it is conceptually similar to the American comedy film Freaky Friday ( 1976 ) . A video for the Spanish version of the ballad was edited from the original clip . Beyoncé promoted `` If I Were a Boy '' through live performances at venues including The Oprah Winfrey Show , the 52nd Grammy Awards , and the I Am ... World Tour ( 2009 -- 10 ) . The song has been covered several times on televised music competitions . American singer Reba McEntire sang a country version of the ballad on Country Music Television ( CMT ) , and a studio version was released as the second single from her 2010 album , All the Women I Am . </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Writing and production <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Jean 's response </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Composition and lyrical interpretation </Li> <Li> 3 Release </Li> <Li> 4 Critical reception </Li> <Li> 5 Chart performance </Li> <Li> 6 Music video <Ul> <Li> 6.1 Background and concept </Li> <Li> 6.2 Synopsis </Li> <Li> 6.3 Reception and accolades </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 7 Live performances <Ul> <Li> 7.1 Fake tape </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 8 Formats and track listings </Li> <Li> 9 Credits and personnel </Li> <Li> 10 Charts <Ul> <Li> 10.1 Weekly charts </Li> <Li> 10.2 Year - end charts </Li> <Li> 10.3 Decade - end charts </Li> <Li> 10.4 All - time charts </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 11 Certifications </Li> <Li> 12 Release history <Ul> <Li> 12.1 Radio adds </Li> <Li> 12.2 Purchasable release </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 13 Cover versions <Ul> <Li> 13.1 The X Factor performances </Li> <Li> 13.2 Reba McEntire version </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 14 See also </Li> <Li> 15 References </Li> <Li> 16 External links </Li> </Ul> <H2> Writing and production ( edit ) </H2> <P> `` If I Were a Boy '' was written by | The song "If I Were a Boy" was written by | [

The bridge is located within the Lake Mead National Recreation Area approximately 30 miles ( 48 km ) southeast of Las Vegas , and carries U.S. Route 93 over the Colorado River . Opened in 2010 , it was the key component of the Hoover Dam Bypass project , which rerouted US 93 from its previous routing along the top of Hoover Dam and removed several hairpin turns and blind curves from the route . It is jointly named for Mike O'Callaghan , Governor of Nevada from 1971 -- 1979 , and Pat Tillman , an American football player who left his career with the Arizona Cardinals to enlist in the United States Army and was later killed in Afghanistan by friendly fire . </P> <P> As early as the 1960s , officials identified the US 93 route over Hoover Dam to be dangerous and inadequate for projected traffic volumes . From 1998 -- 2001 , officials from Arizona , Nevada , and several federal government agencies collaborated to determine the best routing for an alternative river crossing . In March 2001 , the Federal Highway Administration selected the route , which crosses the Colorado River approximately 1,500 feet ( 460 m ) downstream of Hoover Dam . Construction of the bridge approaches began in 2003 , and construction of the bridge itself began in February 2005 . The bridge was completed in 2010 and the entire bypass route opened to vehicle traffic on October 19 , 2010 . The Hoover Dam Bypass project was completed within budget at a cost of $240 million ; the bridge portion cost $114 million . </P> <P> The bridge was the first concrete - steel composite arch bridge built in the United States , and incorporates the widest concrete arch in the Western Hemisphere . At 900 feet ( 270 m ) above the Colorado River , it is the second highest bridge in the United States after the Royal Gorge Bridge , and is the world 's highest concrete arch bridge . </P> <P> The bridge is slated to be part of Interstate 11 once the highway is completed in this area , replacing US 93 . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History </Li> <Li> 2 Design </Li> <Li> 3 Construction </Li> <Li> 4 Naming </Li> <Li> 5 Incidents <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Construction crane collapse </Li> <Li> 5.2 Fatalities </Li> <Li> 5.3 Suicides </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 See also </Li> <Li> 7 Notes </Li> <Li> 8 References </Li> <Li> 9 Citations </Li> <Li> 10 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <P> In 1935 , the American Association of State Highway Officials ( AASHO , later AASHTO ) authorized a southward extension of U.S. Route 93 from its previous southern terminus in Glendale , Nevada to Kingman , Arizona by way of Las Vegas and Boulder City , crossing the Colorado River on the newly constructed Hoover Dam ( also known then as Boulder Dam ) . Clark County was sparsely populated at the time , with a population of less than 9,000 at the 1930 U.S. Census ( compared to an estimated 2 million in 2013 ) . Development in and around Las Vegas in the latter half of the 20th century made Las Vegas and its surrounding area a tourist attraction , and US 93 became an important transportation corridor for passenger and commercial traffic between Las Vegas and Phoenix .

Nintendo is one of the world 's largest video game companies by market capitalization , creating some of the best - known and top - selling video game franchises , such as Mario , The Legend of Zelda , and Pokémon . Founded on 23 September 1889 by Fusajiro Yamauchi , it originally produced handmade hanafuda playing cards . By 1963 , the company had tried several small niche businesses , such as cab services and love hotels . Abandoning previous ventures in favor of toys in the 1960s , Nintendo then developed into a video game company in the 1970s , ultimately becoming one of the most influential in the industry and Japan 's third most - valuable company with a market value of over $85 billion . From 1992 until 2016 , Nintendo was also the majority shareholder for the Seattle Mariners of Major League Baseball . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History <Ul> <Li> 1.1 1889 -- 1956 : As a card company </Li> <Li> 1.2 1956 -- 1974 : New ventures </Li> <Li> 1.3 1974 -- 1978 : Early electronic era </Li> <Li> 1.4 1979 -- 2003 : Success with video games </Li> <Li> 1.5 2004 -- 2011 : Nintendo DS and Wii </Li> <Li> 1.6 2011 -- 2015 : Nintendo 3DS and Wii U </Li> <Li> 1.7 2015 -- present : Mobile and Nintendo Switch </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Products <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Home consoles <Ul> <Li> 2.1. 1 Color TV - Game </Li> <Li> 2.1. 2 Nintendo Entertainment System </Li> <Li> 2.1. 3 Super Nintendo Entertainment System </Li> <Li> 2.1. 4 Nintendo 64 </Li> <Li> 2.1. 5 GameCube </Li> <Li> 2.1. 6 Wii </Li> <Li> 2.1. 7 Wii U </Li> <Li> 2.1. 8 Nintendo Switch </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2.2 Handheld consoles <Ul> <Li> 2.2. 1 Game & Watch </Li> <Li> 2.2. 2 Game Boy </Li> <Li> 2.2. 3 Nintendo DS </Li> <Li> 2.2. 4 Nintendo 3DS </Li> </Ul> </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Company structure <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Marketing </Li> <Li> 3.2 Board of directors <Ul> <Li> 3.2. 1 Representative Directors </Li> <Li> 3.2. 2 Directors </Li> <Li> 3.2. 3 Outside Directors </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3.3 Executive officers <Ul> <Li> 3.3. 1 Senior Executive Officers </Li> <Li> 3.3. 2 Executive Officers </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3.4 Divisions <Ul> <Li> 3.4. 1 Entertainment Planning & Development ( EPD ) </Li> <Li> 3.4. 2 Platform Technology Development ( PTD ) </Li> <Li> 3.4. 3 Business Development ( NBD ) </Li> <Li> 3.4. 4 International divisions <Ul> <Li> 3.4. 4.1 Nintendo Co. , Ltd . </Li> <Li> 3.4. 4.2 Nintendo of America </Li> <Li> 3.4. 4.3 Nintendo of Europe </Li> <Li> 3.4. 4.4 Nintendo Australia </Li> <Li> 3.4. 4.5 iQue </Li> <Li> 3.4. 4.6 Nintendo of Korea </Li> </Ul> </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3.5 Subsidiaries </Li> <Li> 3.6 Logos </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Policy <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Content guidelines </Li> <Li> 4.2 License guidelines </Li> <Li> 4.3 Emulation </Li> <Li> 4.4 Seal of Quality <Ul> <Li> 4.4. 1 NTSC regions </Li> <Li> 4.4. 2 PAL regions </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4.5 Charitable projects </Li> <Li> 4.6 Environmental record </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 Trademark </Li> <Li> 6 See also </Li> <Li> 7 Notes </Li> <Li> 8 References </Li> <Li> 9 Bibliography </Li> <Li> 10 | The Japanese videogame company Nintendo was founded on | [

It was developed by Valve Corporation in tandem with Episode One , the first game in the series , and released in 2007 via Valve 's Steam content distribution platform . The episode was released both separately and as a part of a bundled package , The Orange Box . </P> <P> Episode Two gameplay consists of expansive environments , travel and reduced linear play , continuing Valve 's policy of orienting each episode around a particular theme or set of technologies . Following the closing events of Episode One , it sees Gordon Freeman and the series ' other major characters moving away from City 17 to the surrounding countryside . </P> <P> The retail version was released on October 10 , 2007 , in North America and Russia for Windows and Microsoft 's Xbox 360 after repeated delays . The version for the PlayStation 3 was to be released `` around two or three weeks later '' , as it was produced separately at the Electronic Arts UK studio , according to Valve marketing director Doug Lombardi . This version was further delayed . For the rest of the world , the release date was October 18 . The Steam version was released worldwide on October 10 , 2007 . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Gameplay <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Enemies </Li> <Li> 1.2 Weapons </Li> <Li> 1.3 Vehicles </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Plot </Li> <Li> 3 Development <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Audio </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Reception </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> <Li> 6 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Gameplay ( edit ) </H2> <P> As with its predecessors , the game is played in the first person as series protagonist Gordon Freeman against transhuman troops , known as the Combine , and other hostile alien creatures . Levels are linear but add a more open environment , consisting of puzzles and first - person shooter game - play . Sequences involving vehicles are interspersed throughout the game , breaking up moments of combat . </P> <P> One of the focal points of Episode Two was meant to be increased use of vehicles in open areas . However , the game retains its original linear style until the final battle . Episode Two has more puzzles than Episode One , including the biggest physical puzzle yet in the series -- a damaged unstable bridge . The game features numerous `` achievements '' ( similar to PlayStation 3 's Trophies and Xbox Live 's Achievements ) for carrying out certain tasks . Some are essential to game progress , such as helping fight off an antlion invasion , or defeating the first Hunters . Others are optional tricks or feats the player can perform , such as killing a Combine soldier with their own grenade or running down a certain number of enemies with the car . </P> <H3> Enemies ( edit ) </H3> <P> Episode Two featured a new Hunter enemy , which had just been seen briefly in a recorded message in Episode One . The Hunter serves as one of the most dangerous enemies within the game and as means of emotional development for Alyx Vance . The Hunter is a powerful and resilient enemy which players must often run from while seeking a means to fight back ; Episode Two 's environments are designed with this in mind . </P> <P> An interview in the August 2006 issue of PC Gamer magazine revealed that the Hunter stands 8 feet ( 2.4 m ) tall . Erik Johnson , the game 's project lead , states that the Hunters are `` big and impressive , but they can go anywhere the player can go '' , as the player can encounter them both indoors and outdoors . Ted Backman , senior artist for Valve , talks about how the Hunter can express emotions , being a somewhat non-human character . `` We want the Hunter to be able to express nervousness or aggression , ( to show you ) whether it 's aggressive , hurt , or mad . '' Hunters are very aggressive and they tend to operate in packs , but can also be found supporting other Combine | Half Life 2 Episode 2 was released | [

The main island , located about 230 kilometres ( 143 miles ) northwest of Papeete , is surrounded by a lagoon and a barrier reef .

This was often abbreviated Pora Pora meaning simply `` first born '' . Because of ambiguities in the phonemes of the Tahitian language , this could also be pronounced Bola Bola or Bora Bora . When explorer Jacob Roggeveen first landed on the island , he and his crew adopted the name Bora Bora which has stood ever since . </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> Main article : Kingdom of Bora Bora Flag of the Kingdom of Bora Bora ( 1837 -- 1842 ) Queen Teriimaevarua III and her maids of honor , circa 1899 <P> The island was inhabited by Polynesian settlers around the 4th century C.E. The first European sighting was made by Jakob Roggeveen in 1722 . </P> <P> James Cook sighted the island on 29 July 1769 , using a Tahitian navigator , Tupaia . The London Missionary Society arrived in 1820 and founded a Protestant church in 1890 . Bora Bora was an independent kingdom until 1888 when its last queen Teriimaevarua III was forced to abdicate by the French who annexed the island as a colony . </P> <H3> World War II ( edit ) </H3> <P> In World War II the United States chose Bora Bora as a South Pacific military supply base , and an oil depot , airstrip , seaplane base , and defensive fortifications were constructed . Known as `` Operation Bobcat '' , it maintained a supply force of nine ships , 20,000 tons of equipment and nearly 7,000 men . </P> <P> At least eight 7 `` / 44 caliber guns , operated by elements of the 13th Coast Artillery Regiment ( later the 276th Coast Artillery Battalion ) , were set up at strategic points around the island to protect it against potential military attack .

( May 2011 ) </Td> </Tr> </Table> ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) </Td> </Tr> </Table> <P> The IP Multimedia Subsystem or IP Multimedia Core Network Subsystem ( IMS ) is an architectural framework for delivering IP multimedia services . Historically , mobile phones have provided voice call services over a circuit - switched - style network , rather than strictly over an IP packet - switched network . Alternative methods of delivering voice ( VoIP ) or other multimedia services have become available on smartphones , but they have not become standardized across the industry . IMS is an architectural framework to provide such standardization . </P> <P> IMS was originally designed by the wireless standards body 3rd Generation Partnership Project ( 3GPP ) , as a part of the vision for evolving mobile networks beyond GSM . Its original formulation ( 3GPP Rel - 5 ) represented an approach to delivering `` Internet services '' over GPRS . This vision was later updated by 3GPP , 3GPP2 and ETSI TISPAN by requiring support of networks other than GPRS , such as Wireless LAN , CDMA2000 and fixed lines . </P> <P> To ease the integration with the Internet , IMS uses IETF protocols wherever possible , e.g. , SIP ( Session Initiation Protocol ) . According to the 3GPP , IMS is not intended to standardize applications , but rather to aid the access of multimedia and voice applications from wireless and wireline terminals , i.e. , to create a form of fixed - mobile convergence ( FMC ) . This is done by having a horizontal control layer that isolates the access network from the service layer . From a logical architecture perspective , services need not have their own control functions , as the control layer is a common horizontal layer . However , in implementation this does not necessarily map into greater reduced cost and complexity . </P> <P> Alternative and overlapping technologies for access and provisioning of services across wired and wireless networks include combinations of Generic Access Network , soft switches and `` naked '' SIP . </P> <P> Since it is becoming increasingly easier to access content and contacts using mechanisms outside the control of traditional wireless / fixed operators , the interest of IMS is being challenged . </P> <P> Examples of global standards based on IMS are MMTel which is the basis for Voice over LTE ( VoLTE ) and Rich Communication Services ( RCS ) which is also known as joyn or Advanced Messaging . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History </Li> <Li> 2 Architecture <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Access network </Li> <Li> 2.2 Core network <Ul> <Li> 2.2. 1 CSCF -- Call Session Control Function </Li> <Li> 2.2. 2 Application servers <Ul> <Li> 2.2. 2.1 Functional model </Li> <Li> 2.2. 2.2 Public Service Identity </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2.2. 3 Media servers </Li> <Li> 2.2. 4 Breakout gateway </Li> <Li> 2.2. 5 PSTN gateways </Li> <Li> 2.2. 6 Media resources </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2.3 NGN interconnection </Li> <Li> 2.4 Charging </Li> <Li> 2.5 IMS - Based PES Architecture </Li> <Li> 2.6 Interfaces description </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Session handling <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Initial filter criteria </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Security aspects of early IMS and non-3GPP systems </Li> <Li> 5 See also </Li> <Li> 6 References </Li> <Li> 7 Books </Li> <Li> 8 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> IMS defined by an industry forum called 3G.

AGCF works as a bridge interconnecting the IMS networks and the Megaco / H. 248 networks .

When they arrive at Tom 's childhood farm home , they find it deserted .

Graves tells them that the banks have evicted all the farmers , but he refuses to leave the area . </P> <P> The next morning , Tom and Casy go to Uncle John 's . Tom finds his family loading their remaining possessions into a Hudson Motor Car Company sedan converted to a truck ; with their crops destroyed by the Dust Bowl , the family has defaulted on their bank loans , and their farm has been repossessed . Consequently , the Joads see no option but to seek work in California , described in handbills as fruitful and offering high pay . </P> <P> The Joads put everything they have into making the journey .

In makeshift camps , they hear many stories from others , some returning from California , and the group worries about lessening prospects . The family dwindles as well : Grandpa dies along the road , and they bury him in a field ; Grandma dies close to the California state line ; and both Noah ( the eldest Joad son ) and Connie Rivers ( the husband of the pregnant Joad daughter , Rose of Sharon ) leave the family .

The Declaration was directly influenced by Thomas Jefferson , working with General Lafayette , who introduced it . Influenced also by the doctrine of `` natural right '' , the rights of man are held to be universal : valid at all times and in every place , pertaining to human nature itself . It became the basis for a nation of free individuals protected equally by the law . It is included in the beginning of the constitutions of both the Fourth French Republic ( 1946 ) and Fifth Republic ( 1958 ) and is still current . Inspired by the Enlightenment philosophers , the Declaration was a core statement of the values of the French Revolution and had a major impact on the development of freedom and democracy in Europe and worldwide . </P> <P> The Declaration , together with Magna Carta , the English Bill of Rights , and the United States Bill of Rights , inspired in large part the 1948 United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History </Li> <Li> 2 Philosophical and theoretical context </Li> <Li> 3 Substance <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Articles </Li> <Li> 3.2 Active and passive citizenship </Li> <Li> 3.3 Women 's rights </Li> <Li> 3.4 Slavery </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Legacy <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Constitution of the French Fifth Republic </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 See also <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Other early declarations of rights </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 Notes </Li> <Li> 7 References </Li> <Li> 8 Further reading </Li> <Li> 9 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <P> The content of the document emerged largely from the ideals of the Enlightenment . The key drafts were prepared by Lafayette , working at times with his close friend Thomas Jefferson . In August 1789 , Honoré Mirabeau played a central role in conceptualizing and drafting the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen . </P> <P> The last article of the Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen was adopted on 27 August 1789 by the National Constituent Assembly , during the period of the French Revolution , as the first step toward writing a constitution for France . Inspired by the Enlightenment , the original version of the Declaration was discussed by the representatives on the basis of a 24 article draft proposed by the sixth bureau , led by Jérôme Champion de Cicé . The draft was later modified during the debates . A second and lengthier declaration , known as the Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen of 1793 , was written in 1793 but never formally adopted . </P> <H2> Philosophical and theoretical context ( edit ) </H2> <P> The concepts in the Declaration come from the philosophical and political duties of the Enlightenment , such as individualism , the social contract as theorized by the Genevan philosopher Rousseau , and the separation of powers espoused by the Baron de Montesquieu . As can be seen in the texts , the French declaration was heavily influenced by the political philosophy of the Enlightenment and principles of human rights as was the U.S. Declaration of Independence which preceded it ( 4 July 1776 ) . </P> <P> The declaration is in the spirit of `` secular natural law '' , which does not base itself on religious doctrine or authority , in contrast with traditional natural law theory , which does . </P> <P> The declaration defines a single set of individual and collective rights for all men . Influenced by the doctrine of natural rights , these rights are held to be universal and valid in all times and places . For example , `` Men are born and remain free and equal in rights . Social distinctions may be founded only upon the general good . '' They have certain natural rights to property , to liberty , and to life . According to this theory , the role of government is to recognize and secure these rights . Furthermore , government should be carried on by elected representatives . </P> <P> At the time of writing , the rights contained in the declaration were only awarded to men .

The first owner of the Lions , George A. Richards , started the tradition of the Thanksgiving Day game as a gimmick to get people to go to Lions football games , and to continue a tradition begun by the city 's previous NFL teams . What differentiated the Lions ' efforts from other teams that played on the holiday was that Richards owned radio station WJR , a major affiliate of the NBC Blue Network ; he was able to negotiate an agreement with NBC to carry his Thanksgiving games live across the network . </P> <P> During the Franksgiving controversy in 1939 and 1940 , the only two teams to play the game were the Pittsburgh Steelers and Philadelphia Eagles , as both teams were in the same state ( Pennsylvania ) . ( At the time , then - president Franklin Roosevelt wanted to move the holiday for economic reasons and many states were resistant to the move ; half the states recognized the move and the other half did not . This complicated scheduling for Thanksgiving games . Incidentally , the two teams were also exploring the possibility of a merger at the time . ) Because of the looming World War II and the resulting shorter seasons , the NFL did not schedule any Thanksgiving games in 1941 , nor did it schedule any in the subsequent years until the war ended in 1945 . When the Thanksgiving games resumed in 1945 , only the Lions ' annual home game would remain on the Thanksgiving holiday . In 1951 , the Packers began a thirteen - season run as the perpetual opponent to the Lions each year through 1963 . </P> <P> The All - America Football Conference and American Football League , both of which would later be absorbed into the NFL , also held Thanksgiving contests , although neither of those leagues had permanent hosts . Likewise , the AFL of 1926 also played two Thanksgiving games in its lone season of existence , while the AFL of 1936 hosted one in its first season , which featured the Cleveland Rams , a future NFL team , and the 1940 -- 41 incarnation of the American Football League played two games in 1940 on the earlier `` Franksgiving '' date . </P> <P> In 1966 , the Dallas Cowboys , who had been founded six years earlier , adopted the practice of hosting Thanksgiving games . It is widely rumored that the Cowboys sought a guarantee that they would regularly host Thanksgiving games as a condition of their very first one ( since games on days other than Sunday were uncommon at the time and thus high attendance was not a certainty ) . This is only partly true ; Dallas had in fact decided to host games on Thanksgiving by their own decision because there was nothing else to do or watch on that day . In 1975 and 1977 , at the behest of then - Commissioner Pete Rozelle , the St. Louis Cardinals replaced Dallas as a host team ( Dallas then hosted St. Louis in 1976 ) . Although the Cardinals , at the time known as the `` Cardiac Cards '' due to their propensity for winning very close games , were a modest success at the time , they were nowhere near as popular nationwide as the Cowboys , who were regular Super Bowl contenders during this era . This , combined with St. Louis 's consistently weak attendance , a series of ugly Cardinals losses in the three - game stretch , and opposition from the Kirkwood -- Webster Groves Turkey Day Game ( a local high school football contest ) led to Dallas resuming regular hosting duties in 1978 ; it was then , after Rozelle asked Dallas to resume hosting Thanksgiving games , that the Cowboys requested ( and received ) an agreement guaranteeing the Cowboys a spot on Thanksgiving Day forever . </P> <P> Notwithstanding the aforementioned St. Louis - hosted games in 1975 and 1977 , the two `` traditional '' Thanksgiving Day pro football games since the 1970 AFL -- NFL merger have then been in Detroit and Dallas . Because of TV network commitments in place through the 2013 season , to make sure that both the AFC - carrying network ( NBC from the 1970 merger to 1997 , and CBS since 1998 ) and the NFC - carrying network ( CBS from the 1970 merger to 1993 , and Fox since 1994 ) got at least one game each , one of these games was between NFC opponents , and one featured AFC - NFC opponents . Thus , the AFC could showcase only one team on Thanksgiving , and the AFC team was always the visiting team . </P> <P> Since 2006 , a third NFL game on Thanksgiving has been played at night . It originally aired on the NFL Network as part of its Thursday Night Football package until 2011 ; NBC began carrying the night game in 2012 . The Thanksgiving night game has no fixed opponents or conferences , enabling the league to freely choose whatever marquee match - up to feature on that night . The 2012 changes also allowed both Dallas and Detroit in the future to offer NFC games ( one would be | The Dallas Cowboys started playing on Thanksgiving Day in | [

The work , which is attributed to the ancient Chinese military strategist Sun Tzu ( `` Master Sun '' , also spelled Sunzi ) , is composed of 13 chapters . Each one is devoted to a distinct aspect of warfare and how that applies to military strategy and tactics . For almost 1,500 years it was the lead text in an anthology that would be formalised as the Seven Military Classics by Emperor Shenzong of Song in 1080 . The Art of War remains the most influential strategy text in East Asia . It has a profound influence on Eastern and Western military thinking , business tactics , legal strategy and beyond . </P> <P> The book was first translated and published into French in 1772 ( re-published in 1782 ) by the Jesuit Jean Joseph Marie Amiot and a partial translation into English was attempted by British officer Everard Ferguson Calthrop in 1905 under the title The Book of War . The first annotated English translation was completed and published by Lionel Giles in 1910 .

Sima Qian 's 1st century BC work Records of the Grand Historian ( Shiji ) , the first of China 's 24 dynastic histories , records an early Chinese tradition stating that a text on military matters was written by a `` Sun Wu '' from the State of Qi , and that this text had been read and studied by King Helü of Wu ( r . 514 -- 495 BC ) . This text was traditionally identified with the received Master Sun 's Art of War . The conventional view , which is still widely held in China , was that Sun Wu was a military theorist from the end of the Spring and Autumn period ( 776 -- 471 BC ) who fled his home state of Qi to the southeastern kingdom of Wu , where he is said to have impressed the king with his ability to train even dainty palace ladies in warfare and to have made Wu 's armies powerful enough to challenge their western rivals in the state of Chu . </P> <P> The prominent strategist , poet , and warlord Cao Cao in the early 3rd century AD | The author of "The Art of War" was | [

Relief map of the Sinai Peninsula <P> The Sinai Peninsula or simply Sinai ( / ˈsaɪnaɪ / ; Arabic : سيناء Sīnāʼ ; Egyptian Arabic : سينا Sīna , IPA : ( ˈsiːnæ ) ; Hebrew : סיני Sinai ; Coptic : ⲥⲓⲛⲁ ) is a peninsula in Egypt , the only part of the country located in Asia . It is situated between the Mediterranean Sea to the north and the Red Sea to the south , and is a land bridge between Asia and Africa . Sinai has a land area of about 60,000 km ( 23,000 sq mi ) and a population of approximately 1,400,000 people . Administratively , the Sinai Peninsula is divided into two governorates : the South Sinai Governorate and the North Sinai Governorate . Three other governorates span the Suez Canal , crossing into African Egypt : Suez Governorate on the southern end of the Suez Canal , Ismailia Governorate in the center , and Port Said Governorate in the north . </P> <P> The Sinai Peninsula has been a part of Egypt from the First Dynasty of ancient Egypt ( c. 3100 BC ) . This comes in stark contrast to the region north of it , the Levant ( present - day territories of Syria , Lebanon , Jordan , Israel and Palestine ) , which , due largely to its strategic geopolitical location and cultural convergences , has historically been the centre of conflict between Egypt and various states of Mesopotamia and Asia Minor . In periods of foreign occupation , the Sinai was , like the rest of Egypt , also occupied and controlled by foreign empires , in more recent history the Ottoman Empire ( 1517 -- 1867 ) and the United Kingdom ( 1882 -- 1956 ) . Israel invaded and occupied Sinai during the Suez Crisis ( known in Egypt as the Tripartite Aggression due to the simultaneous coordinated attack by the UK , France and Israel ) of 1956 , and during the Six - Day War of 1967 . On 6 October 1973 , Egypt launched the Yom Kippur War to retake the peninsula , which was the site of fierce fighting between Egyptian and Israeli forces . By 1982 , as a result of the Israel -- Egypt Peace Treaty of 1979 , Israel had withdrawn from all of the Sinai Peninsula except the contentious territory of Taba , which was returned after a ruling by a commission of arbitration in 1989 . </P> <P> Today , Sinai has become a tourist destination due to its natural setting , rich coral reefs , and biblical history .

However this assumption is contested . </P> <P> In addition to its formal name , Egyptians also refer to it as Arḍ ul - Fairūz ( أرض الفيروز `` the land of turquoise '' ) .

It is linked to the African continent by the Isthmus of Suez , 125 kilometres ( 78 mi ) wide strip of land , containing the Suez Canal . The eastern isthmus , linking it to the Asian mainland , is around 200 kilometres ( 120 mi ) wide . The peninsula 's eastern shore separates the Arabian plate from the African plate . </P> <P> The southernmost tip is the Ras Muhammad National Park . </P> <P> Most of the Sinai Peninsula is divided among the two governorates of Egypt : South Sinai ( Ganub Sina ) and North Sinai ( Shamal Sina ) . Together , they comprise around 60,000 square kilometres ( 23,000 sq mi ) and have a population ( January 2013 ) of 597,000 .

The Enterprise has been depicted in four network television series , six feature films , many books , and much fan - created media . The original Star Trek series ( 1966 -- 1969 ) features a voice - over by Enterprise captain , James T. Kirk ( William Shatner ) , which describes the mission of the Enterprise as `` to explore strange new worlds ; to seek out new life and new civilizations ; to boldly go where no man has gone before '' . </P> <P> The Enterprise is a Constitution class Heavy Cruiser that serves as a part of Starfleet , which is the United Federation of Planets ' space - borne peace - keeping force . It is capable of Interstellar travel and serves intermittently as both a patrol craft and as a deep - space exploration vessel . The ship 's components were built at the Starfleet Division of the San Francisco Navy Yards and assembled in orbit . </P> <P> The NCC - 1701 appears in the first three Star Trek films in a refitted configuration .

Jefferies ' experience with aviation led to his Enterprise designs being imbued with what he called `` aircraft logic '' . The final interior plans of the Enterprise were designed by Franz Joseph in 1974 , with approval from both Gene Roddenberry and Paramount Pictures , six years after Star Trek had been cancelled . The plans heavily referenced both episodes of Star Trek and Matt Jefferies ' design . </P> <P> The ship 's `` NCC - 1701 '' registry number stemmed from `` NC '' being one of the international aircraft registration codes assigned to the United States ; the second `` C '' was added as Soviet aircraft used `` CCCC '' and Matt Jeffries combined the two as he believed a venture into space would be a joint operation by the United States and Russia . According to The Making of Star Trek , `` NCC '' is the Starfleet abbreviation for `` Naval Construction Contract '' , comparable to what the U.S. Navy would call a hull number . The `` 1701 '' was chosen to avoid any possible ambiguity ; according to Jefferies , the numbers 3 , 6 , 8 , and 9 are `` too easily confused '' . Other sources cite it as a reference to the house across the street from where Roddenberry grew up , while another account gives it as the street address of Linwood Dunn . Jefferies ' own sketches provide the explanation that it was his 17th cruiser design with the first serial number of that series : 1701 . The Making of Star Trek explains that `` USS '' should mean `` United Space Ship '' and that `` Enterprise is a member of the Starship Class '' . The ship 's class was officially changed to Constitution Class with the release of Franz Joseph 's Star Fleet Technical Manual in 1975 , even though all previous references identify it as Starship Class . </P> <P> The first miniature built for the pilot episode `` The Cage '' ( 1965 ) was unlit and approximately 33 inches ( 0.8 m ) long , commonly referred to as `` the three foot model '' . This model was constructed almost entirely of wood and was made by Richard C. Datin in his shop .

At the same party , Lwaxana is approached by the Ferengi Daimon Tog of the ship Krayton , who is interested in Lwaxana in a sexual way , but also explains he would like Lwaxana to use her telepathy to help him make business . Lwaxana rejects him flatly and later remarks that she would rather eat Orion Wing Slugs than date Tog . </P> <P> Afterwards , at the urging of Captain Picard , Commander Riker and his one - time flame , Deanna , decide to take a quick shore leave on Betazed while the Enterprise heads out on a routine mission studying a nebula . Lwaxana tracks down her daughter and Riker , with intent to encourage a renewed romance between the couple . She is just getting started when Daimon Tog arrives stating that he has come for Lwaxana . When he is again rebuffed by Lwaxana , Tog has himself and the others transported aboard the Krayton , leaving a confused Mr. Homn to wonder where his employer has gone . </P> <P> The three awaken in a cell aboard the Krayton . Tog then has Deanna and Lwaxana beamed into the lab of Farek , a Ferengi doctor who hopes to study Lwaxana 's telepathy using mind probes . In the process of transporting them he leaves the women 's clothing behind , saying that women are not worthy enough to wear clothes . Lwaxana pretends to be interested in Tog , and gains Deanna 's return to the cell with Riker by agreeing to discuss with Tog a proposal to use her telepathic abilities in trade negotiations . </P> <P> Riker entices a Ferengi guard into a chess game , and once outside the cell , Riker quickly overpowers the guard . Once freed , Deanna and Riker attempt to send a message to the Enterprise , only to learn that the ship 's communication system is secured by access code . As Lwaxana seduces Tog by rubbing his ears , she receives a telepathic message from Deanna asking her to try to get Tog 's access code . </P> <P> Lwaxana has nearly gotten Tog to tell her the code when Farek walks in and catches her in the act . Farek threatens to humiliate Tog by revealing his incompetence to the Ferengi , but offers to forget the incident if Lwaxana is turned over to him for experimentation , despite the fact that the proposed tests may be lethal . </P> <P> Meanwhile , the Enterprise leaves the nebula , which has been interfering with communications , and learn from Betazed officials that Riker and the Trois have been kidnapped . Returning to Betazed , the Enterprise crew discovers flowers indigenous to a Ferengi planet at the spot where Deanna and Riker were last seen .

The recovery of fingerprints from a crime scene is an important method of forensic science . Fingerprints are easily deposited on suitable surfaces ( such as glass or metal or polished stone ) by the natural secretions of sweat from the eccrine glands that are present in epidermal ridges . These are sometimes referred to as `` Chanced Impressions '' . </P> <P> In a wider use of the term , fingerprints are the traces of an impression from the friction ridges of any part of a human or other primate hand . A print from the sole of the foot can also leave an impression of friction ridges . </P> <P> Deliberate impressions of fingerprints may be formed by ink or other substances transferred from the peaks of friction ridges on the skin to a relatively smooth surface such as a fingerprint card . Fingerprint records normally contain impressions from the pad on the last joint of fingers and thumbs , although fingerprint cards also typically record portions of lower joint areas of the fingers . </P> <P> Human fingerprints are detailed , nearly unique , difficult to alter , and durable over the life of an individual , making them suitable as long - term markers of human identity . They may be employed by police or other authorities to identify individuals who wish to conceal their identity , or to identify people who are incapacitated or deceased and thus unable to identify themselves , as in the aftermath of a natural disaster . Fingerprint analysis , in use since the early 20th century , has led to many crimes being solved . This means that many criminals consider gloves essential . In 2015 , the identification of sex by use of a fingerprint test has been reported . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Biology </Li> <Li> 2 Types </Li> <Li> 3 Dactyloscopy </Li> <Li> 4 Types <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Exemplar </Li> <Li> 4.2 Latent </Li> <Li> 4.3 Patent </Li> <Li> 4.4 Plastic </Li> <Li> 4.5 Electronic recording </Li> <Li> 4.6 Footprints </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 Capture and detection <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Live scan devices </Li> <Li> 5.2 Scanning dead or unconscious people </Li> <Li> 5.3 Latent detection </Li> <Li> 5.4 Laboratory techniques </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 Research </Li> <Li> 7 Disappearance of children 's latent prints </Li> <Li> 8 Detection of drug use </Li> <Li> 9 United States databases and compression </Li> <Li> 10 Validity <Ul> <Li> 10.1 Criticism <Ul> <Li> 10.1. 1 Defense </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 10.2 Track record </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 11 Professional certification </Li> <Li> 12 Errors <Ul> <Li> 12.1 Brandon Mayfield and the Madrid bombing </Li> <Li> 12.2 René Ramón Sánchez </Li> <Li> 12.3 Shirley McKie </Li> <Li> 12.4 Stephan Cowans </Li> <Li> 12.5 Craig D.

The NADH and succinate generated in the citric acid cycle are oxidized , providing energy to power ATP synthase . Photosynthetic electron transport chain of the thylakoid membrane . <P> An electron transport chain ( ETC ) is a series of complexes that transfer electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors via redox ( both reduction and oxidation occurring simultaneously ) reactions , and couples this electron transfer with the transfer of protons ( H ions ) across a membrane . This creates an electrochemical proton gradient that drives the synthesis of adenosine triphosphate ( ATP ) , a molecule that stores energy chemically in the form of highly strained bonds . The molecules of the chain include peptides , enzymes ( which are proteins or protein complexes ) , and others . The final acceptor of electrons in the electron transport chain during aerobic respiration is molecular oxygen although a variety of acceptors other than oxygen such as sulfate exist in anaerobic respiration . </P> <P> Electron transport chains are used for extracting energy via redox reactions from sunlight in photosynthesis or , such as in the case of the oxidation of sugars , cellular respiration . In eukaryotes , an important electron transport chain is found in the inner mitochondrial membrane where it serves as the site of oxidative phosphorylation through the action of ATP synthase . It is also found in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast in photosynthetic eukaryotes . In bacteria , the electron transport chain is located in their cell membrane . </P> <P> In chloroplasts , light drives the conversion of water to oxygen and NADP to NADPH with transfer of H ions across chloroplast membranes . In mitochondria , it is the conversion of oxygen to water , NADH to NAD and succinate to fumarate that are required to generate the proton gradient . </P> <P> Electron transport chains are major sites of premature electron leakage to oxygen , generating superoxide and potentially resulting in increased oxidative stress . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Background </Li> <Li> 2 In mitochondria <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Mitochondrial redox carriers <Ul> <Li> 2.1. 1 Complex I </Li> <Li> 2.1. 2 Complex II </Li> <Li> 2.1. 3 Complex III </Li> <Li> 2.1. 4 Complex IV </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2.2 Coupling with oxidative phosphorylation </Li> <Li> 2.3 Summary </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 In bacteria <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Electron donors </Li> <Li> 3.2 Dehydrogenases </Li> <Li> 3.3 Quinone carriers </Li> <Li> 3.4 Proton pumps </Li> <Li> 3.5 Cytochrome electron carriers </Li> <Li> 3.6 Terminal oxidases and reductases </Li> <Li> 3.7 Electron acceptors </Li> <Li> 3.8 Summary </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Photosynthetic </Li> <Li> 5 Summary </Li> <Li> 6 See also </Li> <Li> 7 References </Li> <Li> 8 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Background ( edit ) </H2> <P> The electron transport chain consists of a spatially separated series of redox reactions in which electrons are transferred from a donor molecule to an acceptor molecule . The underlying force driving these reactions is the Gibbs free energy of the reactants and products . The Gibbs free energy is the energy available ( `` free '' ) to do work . Any reaction that decreases the overall Gibbs free energy of a system is thermodynamically spontaneous . </P> <P> The function of the electron transport chain is to produce a transmembrane proton electrochemical gradient as a result of the redox reactions . If protons flow back through the membrane , they enable mechanical work , such as rotating bacterial flagella . ATP synthase , an enzyme highly conserved among all domains of life , converts this mechanical work into chemical energy by producing ATP , which powers most cellular reactions . A small amount of ATP is available from substrate - level phosphorylation , for example , in glycolysis . In most organisms the majority of ATP is generated in electron transport chains , while only some obtain ATP by fermentation . </P> <H2> In mitochondria ( edit ) </H2> <P> Most eukaryotic cells have mitochondria , which produce ATP from products of the citric acid cycle , fatty acid oxidation , and amino acid oxidation . At the mitochondrial inner membrane , electrons from NADH and FADH2 pass through the electron transport chain to oxygen , which is reduced to water . The electron transport chain comprises an enzymatic series of electron donors and acceptors . Each electron donor will pass electrons to a more electronegative acceptor , which in turn donates these electrons to another acceptor , a process that continues down the series until electrons are passed to oxygen , the most electronegative and terminal electron acceptor in the chain . Passage of electrons between donor and acceptor releases energy , which is used to generate a proton gradient across the mitochondrial membrane by actively `` pumping '' protons into the intermembrane space , producing a thermodynamic state that has the potential to do work . The entire process is called oxidative phosphorylation , since ADP is phosphorylated to ATP using the energy of hydrogen oxidation in many steps . </P> <P> A small percentage of electrons do not complete the whole series and instead directly leak to oxygen , resulting in the formation of the free - radical superoxide , a highly reactive molecule that contributes to oxidative stress and has been implicated in a number of diseases and aging . </P> <H3> Mitochondrial redox carriers ( edit ) </H3> <P> Energy obtained through the transfer of electrons down the ETC is used to pump protons from the mitochondrial matrix into the intermembrane space , creating an electrochemical proton gradient ( ΔpH ) across the inner mitochondrial membrane ( IMM ) . This proton gradient is largely but not exclusively responsible for the mitochondrial membrane potential ( ΔΨ ) . It allows ATP synthase to use the flow of H through the enzyme back into the matrix to generate ATP from adenosine diphosphate ( ADP ) and inorganic | The electron transport chain gets its electrons from a | [

Following the attack , Russia and its allies ( Britain and France ) declared war on the Ottomans in November 1914 . The Ottoman Empire started military action came after three months of formal neutrality , but it had signed a secret alliance with the Central Powers in August 1914 . </P> <P> The political reasons for the Ottoman Sultan 's entry into the war are disputed . and the Ottoman Empire was an agricultural state in an age of industrialized warfare , Also , the economic resources of the empire were depleted by the cost of the Balkan Wars of 1912 and 1913 . </P> <P> The great land mass of Anatolia was between the Ottoman army 's headquarters in Istanbul and many of the theatres of war . During Abdulhamit II 's reign civilian communications had improved , but the road and rail network was not ready for war . It took more than a month to reach Syria and nearly two months to reach Mesopotamia . To reach the border with Russia , the railway ran only 60 km east of Ankara , and from there , it was 35 days to Erzurum . The Army used Trabzon port as logistical shortcut to east . It took less time to arrive at any of those fronts from London than from the Ottoman War Department because of the poor condition of Ottoman supply ships . </P> <P> The empire fell into disorder with the declaration of war along with Germany . On 11 November a conspiracy was discovered in Constantinople against Germans and the Committee of Union and Progress ( CUP ) in which some of the CUP leaders were shot . That followed the 12 November revolt in Adrianople against the German military mission . On 13 November , a bomb exploded in Enver Pasha 's palace , which killed five German officers but missed the Enver Pasha . On 18 November were more anti-German plots . Committees formed around the country to rid the country of those who sided with Germany . Army and navy officers protested against the assumption of authority by Germans . On 4 December , widespread riots took place throughout the country . On 13 December was an anti-war demonstration by women in Konak ( Izmir ) and Erzurum .

There is no universally accepted set of terminology to describe the various architectures and functions . The terms used by various manufacturers often reflect marketing rather than engineering considerations or significant technical differences between systems . SAE International 's standard J1952 recommends only the term All - Wheel - Drive with additional sub classifications which cover all types of AWD / 4WD / 4x4 systems found on production vehicles . </P> <H3> 4 × 4 ( edit ) </H3> <P> Four - by - four ( 4 × 4 ) refers to the general class of vehicles . The first figure represents the total wheels ( more precisely , axle ends ) , and the second , the number that are powered . Syntactically , 4 × 2 means a four - wheel vehicle that transmits engine torque to only two axle - ends : the front two in front - wheel drive or the rear two in rear - wheel drive . Alternatively , a 6 × 4 vehicle has three axles , two of which provide torque to two wheel ends each . </P> <H3> 4WD ( edit ) </H3> <P> Four wheel drive ( 4WD ) refers to vehicles with two axles providing torque to four wheel ends . In the North American market the term generally refers to a system that is optimized for off - road driving conditions . The term `` 4WD '' is typically designated for vehicles equipped with a transfercase which switches between 2WD and 4WD operating modes , either manually or automatically . </P> <H3> AWD ( edit ) </H3> Main article : AWD ( vehicle ) <P> All wheel drive ( AWD ) historically was synonymous with `` four - wheel drive '' on four - wheeled vehicles , and six - wheel drive on 6 × 6s , and so on , being used in that fashion at least as early as the 1920s . Today in North America the term is applied to both heavy vehicles as well as light passenger vehicles . When referring to heavy vehicles the term is increasingly applied to mean `` permanent multiple - wheel drive '' on 2 × 2 , 4 × 4 , 6 × 6 or 8 × 8 drive train systems that include a differential between the front and rear drive shafts . This is often coupled with some sort of anti-slip technology , increasingly hydraulic - based , that allows differentials to spin at different speeds but still be capable of transferring torque from a wheel with poor traction to one with better . Typical AWD systems work well on all surfaces , but are not intended for more extreme off - road use . When used to describe AWD systems in light passenger vehicles , it refers to a system that applies torque to all four wheels ( permanently or on demand ) and / or is targeted at improving on - road traction and performance ( particularly in inclement conditions ) , rather than for off - road applications . </P> <P> Some all wheel drive electric vehicles solve this challenge using one motor for each axle , thereby eliminating a mechanical differential between the front and rear axles . An example of this is the dual motor variant of the Tesla Model S , which on a millisecond scale can control the torque distribution electronically | The term "4WD" in cars refers to | [

Introduced in the animated film The Lion King in 1994 , Nala subsequently appears as a less prominent character in the film 's sequels The Lion King II : Simba 's Pride ( 1998 ) and The Lion King 11⁄2 ( 2004 ) . In the original film , the adult Nala was voiced by American actress Moira Kelly . Young Nala 's speaking voice is provided by actress Niketa Calame , while singers Laura Williams and Sally Dworsky provide the singing voices of young and adult Nala respectively . </P> <P> Nala is introduced as the childhood best friend of Simba , and ultimately becomes his wife by the end of The Lion King . Several years after Simba 's uncle Scar has killed Simba 's father Mufasa and usurped the throne , Nala desperately ventures into the jungle to find help . Upon unexpectedly reuniting with a grown Simba , who she had long been tricked by Scar into presuming dead , Nala encourages him to return to Pride Rock , overthrow his uncle and ultimately become king . As Simba 's queen , Nala has a daughter , Kiara , whose story is explored in The Lion King : Simba 's Pride . </P> <P> Nala is the most significant female character in The Lion King . As the film was inspired by William Shakespeare 's tragedy Hamlet , Nala is considered to be The Lion King 's equivalent of Hamlet 's love interest Ophelia , although differences remain between the two characters . Many early concepts first developed for Nala were eventually abandoned , including a brother and father for the character , as well as her being romantically pursued by Scar . While critical reception towards Nala has been generally mixed -- both film and feminist critics complained about the character 's lack of involvement in the story and supposedly submissive demeanor during the song `` Can You Feel the Love Tonight '' -- Kelly 's vocal performance has been praised . </P> <P> Nala appears in the Broadway musical adaptation of the film , first played by singer Heather Headley . The character also appears in the television series The Lion Guard , with Gabrielle Union replacing Kelly as the voice of Nala . Beyoncé is set to voice the character in the upcoming 2019 remake of the original film directed by Jon Favreau . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Development <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Conception and writing </Li> <Li> 1.2 Voice and music </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Characterization and themes </Li> <Li> 3 Appearances <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Film and television </Li> <Li> 3.2 Musical </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Reception </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Development ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Conception and writing ( edit ) </H3> <P> Film critic James Berardinelli identified Nala as The Lion King 's `` sole significant female character . '' Screenwriter Linda Woolverton conceived Nala `` as part of a gradual progression ... which have driven recent public conversation about what young girls should be able to expect from their cinematic role models . '' In early versions of the screenplay , Nala has a younger brother named Mheetu , who enjoys accompanying his sister and her best friend Simba on their adventures . Pronounced `` me too '' , the character 's name alludes to this personality trait . At one point , Simba was supposed to save the cub from a wildebeest stampede , and Nala would eventually become responsible for protecting Mheetu from Simba 's tyrannical uncle Scar . Nala also had a fox friend named Bhati . According to Woolverton , Mheetu and Bhati were eventually written out of the film because their stories were beginning to distract from Simba 's , in addition to the Mheetu - Scar subplot making the film too dark when combined with the death of Simba 's father Mufasa . At one point , Nala also had a father ; the character was similarly abandoned . </P> <P> Because The Lion King was originally conceived as a much more mature and adult - oriented film , Nala was supposed to have been banished from the Pride Lands as punishment for rejecting Scar 's romantic advances . This idea was to have been further explored in Scar 's song `` Be Prepared ( Reprise ) '' , during which Scar demands that Nala become his queen , but the musical number was ultimately cut from the final film because the scene was | The voice of Nala in The Lion King is provided by | [

Gonzalo Jiménez de Quesada was the leading conquistador with his brother Hernán second in command . It was governed by the president of the Audiencia of Bogotá , and comprised an area corresponding mainly to modern - day Colombia and parts of Venezuela . The conquistadors originally organized it as a captaincy general within the Viceroyalty of Peru . The crown established the audiencia in 1549 . Ultimately , the kingdom became part of the Viceroyalty of New Granada first in 1717 and permanently in 1739 .

In the 18th century the additional Viceroyalty of New Granada 1717 ( capital , Bogotá ) , and Viceroyalty of Rio de la Plata 1776 ( capital , Buenos Aires ) were established from portions of the Viceroyalty of Peru . The change diminished the political and economic power of the viceroyalty and opened formal connections between the mining district of Upper Peru and the port of Buenos Aires . </P> <P> The system of crown rule evolved from the era of the Catholic Monarchs , which established the Council of the Indies , to the establishment of viceroyalties in Mexico and Peru following their conquests in the Hapsburg era , and then into an Intendant system in the eighteenth century as part of the Bourbon Reforms .

Alex Shibutani recalled , `` We were seated close to the ice in the second row , and when the ice dancers came out for their warm up , we could actually feel a gust of wind as the skaters flew by . We were so impressed with the artistry , skating quality , and speed of the top teams that we decided to give it a try . '' </P> <H3> 2004 -- 2005 season ( edit ) </H3> <P> Maia and Alex Shibutani first teamed up as ice dance partners in the spring of 2004 . Their singles coach , Kathy Bird , arranged for them to work with their first ice dancing coaches Andy Stroukoff and Susie Kelley . The Shibutanis also worked with Mary Marchiselli , and their first free dance program was choreographed by Josh Babb . </P> <P> During the 2004 -- 2005 season , their first season of competition , they competed on the juvenile level , which is the lowest competitive level in the U.S. Figure Skating testing structure . They competed at the 2005 North Atlantic Regional Championships , the qualifying competition for the U.S. Junior Championships , and won the competition . The win qualified them for the 2005 U.S. Junior Championships . At that competition , they placed second in the first compulsory dance , fourth in the second compulsory dance , and third in the free dance , ending up with the silver medal . </P> <H3> 2005 -- 2006 season ( edit ) </H3> <P> The Shibutanis moved up to the intermediate level and embarked on several visits to Colorado Springs , Colorado , to work with choreographer Tom Dickson .

Some of Pinter 's script was used in the film , but , while Pinter was paid for his work , he asked to have his name removed from the credits , in keeping with his contract . Christopher C. Hudgins observes : `` During our 1994 interview , Pinter told ( Steven H . ) Gale and me that he had learned his lesson after the revisions imposed on his script for The Handmaid 's Tale , which he has decided not to publish . When his script for The Remains of the Day was radically revised by the James Ivory - Ismail Merchant partnership , he refused to allow his name to be listed in the credits '' ( 125 ) . </P> <P> Though no longer the director , Nichols remained associated with the project as one of the producers of the Merchant Ivory film . </P> <H3> Settings ( edit ) </H3> Music Room of Powderham Castle in 1983 <P> A number of English country estates were used as locations for the film , partly owing to the persuasive power of Ismail Merchant , who was able to cajole permission for the production to borrow houses not normally open to the public . Among them were Dyrham Park for the exterior of the house and the driveway , Powderham Castle ( staircase , hall , music room , bedroom ; used for the aqua - turquoise stairway scenes ) , Corsham Court ( library and dining room ) and Badminton House ( servants ' quarters , conservatory , entrance hall ) . Luciana Arrighi , the production designer , scouted most of these locations . Scenes were also shot in Weston - super-Mare , which stood in for Clevedon . The pub where Mr Stevens stays is the Hop Pole in Limpley Stoke ; the shop featured is also in Limpley Stoke . The pub where Miss Kenton and Mr Benn meet is the George Inn , Norton St Philip . </P> <H3> Characters ( edit ) </H3> <P> The character of Sir Geoffrey Wren is based loosely on that of Sir Oswald Mosley , a British fascist active in the 1930s . Wren is depicted as a strict vegetarian . </P> <P> Edward Wood , 1st Earl of Halifax also appears in the film . Lord Darlington tells Stevens that Halifax approved of the polish on the silver , and Halifax himself later appears when Darlington meets secretly with the German Ambassador and his aides at night . Halifax was a chief architect of the British policy of appeasement from 1937 to 1939 . </P> <P> The character of Congressman Jack Lewis in the film is a composite of two separate American characters in Kazuo Ishiguro 's novel : Congressman Lewis ( who attends the pre-WW2 conference in Darlington Hall ) , and Mr Farraday , who succeeds Lord Darlington as master of Darlington Hall . </P> <H2> Score ( edit ) </H2> <Table> <Tr> <Th colspan="2"> The Remains of the Day </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th colspan="2"> Film score by Richard Robbins </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Released </Th> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Length </Th> <Td> 49 : 26 </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Table> <Tr> <Th colspan="2"> Professional ratings </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th colspan="2"> Review scores </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Source </Th> <Th> Rating </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Entertainment Weekly </Td> <Td> A link </Td> </Tr> </Table> <P> The original score is composed by Richard Robbins .

Fernandes said he would be avoiding Sydney Airport due to its high fees . Instead the airline would concentrate on cheaper alternatives such as Melbourne 's Avalon Airport , Williamtown Airport in Newcastle , and Adelaide Airport . Sustained fares were predicted to be around MYR 800 ( A $ 285 ) for a return fare , plus taxes . Interest was also expressed in using Gold Coast Airport as another Australian destination . </P> <P> Several major developments were announced on 10 August 2007 . AirAsia X announced its first route from Kuala Lumpur to the Gold Coast . One way fares for this route have been touted to begin at MYR 50 ( A $17 ) excluding taxes and charges , with average return prices to be approximately MYR1 , 800 ( A $598 ) , inclusive of taxes and charges . </P> An AirAsia X Airbus A330 - 300 wearing the old livery <P> The airline also announced that Sir Richard Branson of the Virgin Group , will take a 20 % share in the airline to help kick - start its long haul operations and to finance its aircraft purchases . Branson also forecast a strong possibility of future , formal links between Virgin Blue and AirAsia X , including codeshare agreements and Loyalty programs . </P> <P> The first AirAsia X aircraft arrived at Kuala Lumpur International Airport on 15 September 2007 .

It operated services on some of the smaller routes dropped by national carrier Malaysia Airlines . Its routes have since been taken over by MASwings . </P> <P> FAX was privately owned by Kamarudin Meranun , Raja Razali , Raja Azmi and Tony Fernandes . The airline was subcontracted by AirAsia to operate several domestic services following the withdrawal of Malaysia Airlines from rural air service routes within East Malaysia . Its maiden flight was on 1 August 2006 , despite being delayed for 50 minutes by bad weather . FAX was not a low cost carrier , but it incorporated some of AirAsia 's practices to reduce cost . Namely ; internet and phone bookings , as well as ticketless check - in systems . </P> <P> Within days of operation it was subject to a flood of criticisms from commuters , civil servants , and people working in the tourism industry . Critics argued that the new turboprop service provided by FAX should not be more expensive than the rural air service previously operated by Malaysia Airlines , as FAX was subsidised by the Malaysian Government .
