where are the tallest and longest mountain chains on earth how were they formed
List of longest mountain chains on Earth - wikipedia List of longest mountain chains on Earth Jump to : navigation , search The Andes range consist of hundreds of mountain peaks . The world 's longest above - water mountain range is the Andes , about 7,000 km ( 4,300 mi ) long . The range stretches from north to south through seven countries in South America , along the west coast of the continent : Venezuela , Colombia , Ecuador , Peru , Bolivia , Chile , and Argentina . Aconcagua is the highest peak , at about 6,962 m ( 22,841 ft ) . This list does not include submarine mountain ranges . If submarine mountains are included , the longest is the global mid-ocean ridge system which extends for about 65,000 km ( 40,000 mi ) . Contents ( hide ) 1 Formation 2 List 3 See also 4 References 5 External links Formation ( edit ) Mountain chains are typically formed by the process of plate tectonics . Tectonic plates slide very slowly over the Earth 's mantle , a lower place of rock that is heated from the Earth 's interior . Several huge sections of the earth 's crust are impelled by heat currents in the mantle , producing tremendous forces that can buckle the material at the edges of the plates to form mountains . Usually one plate is forced underneath the other , and the lower plate is slowly absorbed by the mantle . Where the two plates pass one another , heated rock from the mantle can burst through the crust to form volcanoes . The movement of the plates against one another can also cause earthquakes .

who is alexander on days of our lives
Kiriakis family - wikipedia Kiriakis family Jump to : navigation , search <Th_colspan="2"> Kiriakis family <Th_colspan="2"> Days of Our Lives family Created by Sheri Anderson , Thom Racina and Leah Laiman Introduced by Betty Corday , Ken Corday and Al Rabin Duration 1985 -- First appearance July 19 , 1985 The Kiriakis family is an upper - class Greek - American family living in the town of Salem on the NBC soap opera Days of Our Lives . One of the wealthiest and most powerful families in Salem , the Kiriakises are led by patriarch Victor Kiriakis , the founder of Titan Industries , the town 's biggest corporation . In addition to Victor prominent members include his sons Bo and Philip , as well as his grandsons Brady and Shawn . Although still heavily distrusted by many in town , the Kiriakis family is still a far more respected and legitimate family than their chief rival : the DiMera family . The Kiriakis family 's history is somewhat clouded , as Victor has hinted over the years that although at one point the clan was powerful in its native Greece , Victor himself grew up in more modest circumstances , and is more or less a self - made man . During Victor 's `` gangster '' heyday in the mid-to - late 1980s , and including a storyline involving Victor 's return to his home village of Nafplion , Greece , it was also insinuated that the family was something akin to a Greek version of a Sicilian - style Mafia clan ( indeed , Victor revealed at one point that his own father and brother were murdered by a rival family in a gangland car bombing ) . 2008 storylines revealed the Kiriakis family is involved in shipping , manufacturing , and publishing . 2009 storylines with the DiMera family revealed the Kiriakis family suffered in business due to the surprise strikes of labor unions controlled by the DiMeras and the Kiriakis organization controls all `` territory south of the water '' while the DiMeras control all `` territory north of the water '' . In early 2015 Victor revealed to new rival Clyde Weston that the Kiriakis family controls trucking in the Salem area . 2015 storylines involving Victor 's nephew Xander Cook revealed the Kiriakis organization was involved in money laundering , smuggling blood diamonds out of Africa , and underworld operations in Cyprus and Cuba . With the appearance of Xander and Victor 's half - brother Deimos Kiriakis , and the mention of Victor 's brother and Xander 's father Titus , the Kiriakis family as of late 2015 appears to be undergoing a resurgence on the show .

Often the corners are red with skin breakdown and crusting . It can also be itchy or painful . The condition can last for days to years . Angular cheilitis is a type of cheilitis ( inflammation of the lips ) . Angular cheilitis can be caused by infection , irritation , or allergies . Infections include by fungi such as Candida albicans and bacteria such as Staph . aureus . Irritants include poorly fitting dentures , licking the lips or drooling , mouth breathing resulting in a dry mouth , sun exposure , overclosure of the mouth , smoking , and minor trauma . Allergies may include to substances like toothpaste , makeup , and food . Often a number of factors are involved . Other factors may include poor nutrition or poor immune function . Diagnosis may be helped by testing for infections and patch testing for allergies . Treatment for angular cheilitis is typically based on the underlying causes along with the use of a barrier cream . Frequently an antifungal and antibacterial cream is also tried . Angular cheilitis is a fairly common problem , with estimates that it affects 0.7 % of the population . It occurs most often in the 30s to 60s , although is also relatively common in children . In the developing world , iron and vitamin deficiencies are a common cause . Contents ( hide ) 1 Signs and symptoms 2 Causes 2.1 Infection 2.2 Irritation contact dermatitis 2.3 Nutritional deficiencies 2.4 Systemic disorders 2.5 Drugs 2.6 Allergic contact dermatitis 3 Diagnosis 3.1 Classification 4 Management 5 Prognosis 6 Epidemiology 7 References 8 External links Signs and symptoms ( edit ) Angular cheilitis -- a fissure running in the corner of the mouth with reddened , irritated facial skin adjacent . A fairly mild case of angular cheilitis extending onto the facial skin in a young person ( affected area is within the black oval ) . Angular cheilitis is a fairly non specific term which describes the presence of an inflammatory lesion in a particular anatomic site ( i.e. the corner of the mouth ) . As there are different possible causes and contributing factors from one person to the next , the appearance of the lesion is somewhat variable . The lesions are more commonly symmetrically present on both sides of the mouth , but sometimes only one side may be affected . In some cases , the lesion may be confined to the mucosa of the lips , and in other cases the lesion may extend past the vermilion border ( the edge where the lining on the lips becomes the skin on the face ) onto the facial skin . Initially , the corners of the mouth develop a gray - white thickening and adjacent erythema ( redness ) . Later , the usual appearance is a roughly triangular area of erythema , edema ( swelling ) and breakdown of skin at either corner of the mouth . The mucosa of the lip may become fissured ( cracked ) , crusted , ulcerated or atrophied . There is not usually any bleeding . Where the skin is involved , there may be radiating rhagades ( linear fissures ) from the corner of the mouth . Infrequently , the dermatitis ( which may resemble eczema ) can extend from the corner of the mouth to the skin of the cheek or chin . If Staphylococcus aureus is involved , the lesion may show golden yellow crusts . In chronic angular cheilitis , there may be suppuration ( pus formation ) , exfoliation ( scaling ) and formation of granulation tissue . Sometimes contributing factors can be readily seen , such as loss of lower face height from poorly made or worn dentures , which results in mandibular overclosure ( `` collapse of jaws '' ) . If there is a nutritional deficiency underlying the condition , various other signs and symptoms such as glossitis ( swollen tongue ) may be present . In people with angular cheilitis who wear dentures , often there may be erythematous mucosa underneath the denture ( normally the upper denture ) , an appearance consistent with denture - related stomatitis . Typically the lesions give symptoms of soreness , pain , pruritus ( itching ) or burning or a raw feeling . Causes ( edit ) Angular cheilitis is thought to be multifactorial disorder of infectious origin , with many local and systemic predisposing factors . The sores in angular cheilitis are often infected with fungi ( yeasts ) , bacteria , or a combination thereof ; this may represent a secondary , opportunistic infection by these pathogens . Some studies have linked the initial onset of angular cheilitis with nutritional deficiencies , especially of the B ( B2 - riboflavin ) vitamins and iron ( which causes iron deficiency anemia ) , which in turn may be evidence of malnutrition or malabsorption . Angular cheilitis can be a manifestation of contact dermatitis , which is considered in two groups ; irritational and allergic . Infection ( edit ) The involved organisms are : Candida species alone ( usually Candida albicans ) , which accounts for about 20 % of cases , Bacterial species , either : Staphylococcus aureus alone , which accounts for about 20 % of cases , β - hemolytic streptococci alone . These types of bacteria have been detected in between 8 -- 15 % of cases of angular cheilitis , but less commonly are they present in isolation , Or a combination of the above organisms , ( a polymicrobial infection ) with about 60 % of cases involving both C. albicans and S. aureus . Candida can be detected in 93 % of angular cheilitis lesions . This organism is found in the mouths of about 40 % of healthy individuals , and it is considered by some to be normal commensal component of the oral microbiota . However , Candida shows dimorphism , namely a yeast form which is thought to be relatively harmless and a pathogenic hyphal form which is associated with invasion of host tissues . Potassium hydroxide preparation is recommended by some to help distinguish between the harmless and the pathogenic forms , and thereby highlight which cases of angular cheilitis are truly caused by Candida . The mouth may act as a reservoir of Candida that reinfects the sores at the corners of the mouth and prevents the sores from healing . A lesion caused by recurrence of a latent herpes simplex infection can occur in the corner of the mouth . Really this is herpes labialis ( a cold sore ) , and is sometimes termed `` angular herpes simplex '' . A cold sore at the corner of the mouth behaves similarly to elsewhere on the lips , and follows a pattern of vesicle ( blister ) formation followed by rupture leaving a crusted sore which resolves in about 7 -- 10 days , and recurs in the same spot periodically , especially during periods of stress . Rather than utilizing antifungal creams , angular herpes simplex is treated in the same way as a cold sore , with topical antiviral drugs such as aciclovir . Irritation contact dermatitis ( edit ) A famous sketch by Leonardo da Vinci in preparation to depict the face of Judas Iscariot in The Last supper . The subject shows overclosure of the jaws and loss of facial support around the mouth . Pronounced skin folds extending from the corner of the mouth . Main article : Irritant contact dermatitis 22 % of cases of angular cheilitis are due to irritants . Saliva contains digestive enzymes , which may have a degree of digestive action on tissues if they are left in contact . The corner of the mouth is normally exposed to saliva more than any other part of the lips . Reduced lower facial height ( vertical dimension or facial support ) is usually caused by edentulism ( tooth loss ) , or wearing worn down , old dentures or ones which are not designed optimally . This results in overclosure of the mandible ( collapse of the jaws ) , which extenuates the angular skin folds at the corners of the mouth , in effect creating an intertriginous skin crease . The tendency of saliva to pool in these areas is increased , constantly wetting the area , which may cause tissue maceration and favors the development of a yeast infection . As such , angular cheilitis is more commonly seen in edentulous people ( people without any teeth ) . It is by contrast uncommon in persons who retain their natural teeth . Angular cheilitis is also commonly seen in denture wearers . Angular cheilitis is present in about 30 % of people with denture - related stomatitis . It is thought that reduced vertical dimension of the lower face may be a contributing factor in up to 11 % of elderly persons with angular cheilitis and in up to 18 % of denture wearers who have angular cheilitis . Reduced vertical dimension can also be caused by tooth migration , wearing orthodontic appliances , and elastic tissue damage caused by ultraviolet light exposure and smoking . Habits or conditions that keep the corners of the mouth moist might include chronic lip licking , thumb sucking ( or sucking on other objects such as pens , pipes , lollipops ) , dental cleaning ( e.g. flossing ) , chewing gum , hypersalivation , drooling and mouth breathing . Some consider habitual lip licking or picking to be a form of nervous tic , and do not consider this to be true angular cheilitis , instead calling it perlèche ( derived from the French word pourlècher meaning `` to lick one 's lips '' ) , or `` factitious cheilitis '' is applied to this habit . The term `` cheilocandidiasis '' describes exfoliative ( flaking ) lesions of the lips and the skin around the lips , and is caused by a superficial candidal infection due to chronic lip licking . Less severe cases occur during cold , dry weather , and is a form of chapped lips . Individuals may lick their lips in an attempt to provide a temporary moment of relief , only serving to worsen the condition . The sunscreen in some types of lip balm degrades over time into an irritant . Using expired lipbalm can initiate mild angular cheilitis , and when the person applies more lipbalm to alleviate the cracking , it only aggravates it . Because of the delayed onset of contact dermatitis and the recovery period lasting days to weeks , people typically do not make the connection between the causative agent and the symptoms . Nutritional deficiencies ( edit ) Several different nutritional deficiency states of vitamins or minerals have been linked to AC . It is thought that in about 25 % of people with AC , iron deficiency or deficiency of B vitamins are involved . Nutritional deficiencies may be a more common cause of AC in Third World countries . Chronic iron deficiency may also cause koilonychia ( spoon shaped deformity of the fingernails ) and glossitis ( inflammation of the tongue ) . It is not completely understood how iron deficiency causes AC , but it is known that it causes a degree of immunocompromise ( decreased efficiency of the immune system ) which may in turn allow an opportunistic infection of candida . Vitamin B2 deficiency ( ariboflavinosis ) may also cause AC , and other conditions such as redness of mucous membranes , magenta colored glossitis ( pink inflammation of the tongue ) . Vitamin B5 deficiency may also cause AC , along with glossitis , and skin changes similar to seborrhoeic dermatitis around the eyes , nose and mouth . Vitamin B12 deficiency is sometimes responsible for AC , and commonly occurs together with folate deficiency ( a lack of folic acid ) , which also causes glossitis and megaloblastic anemia . Vitamin B3 deficiency ( pellagra ) is another possible cause , and in which other association conditions such as dermatitis , diarrhea , dementia and glossitis can occur . Biotin ( vitamin B7 ) deficiency has also been reported to cause AC , along with hair loss ( alopecia ) and dry eyes . Zinc deficiency is known to cause AC . Other symptoms may include diarrhea , alopecia and dermatitis . Acrodermatitis enteropathica is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder causing impaired absorption of zinc , and is associated with AC . In general , these nutritional disorders may be caused by malnutrition , such as may occur in alcoholism or in poorly considered diets , or by malabsorption secondary to gastrointestinal disorders ( e.g. Coeliac disease or chronic pancreatitis ) or gastrointestinal surgeries ( e.g. pernicious anemia caused by ileal resection in Crohn 's disease ) . Systemic disorders ( edit ) Some systemic disorders are involved in angular cheilitis by virtue of their association with malabsorption and the creation of nutritional deficiencies described above . Such examples include people with anorexia nervosa . Other disorders may cause lip enlargement ( e.g. orofacial granulomatosis ) , which alters the local anatomy and extenuates the skin folds at the corners of the mouth . More still may be involved because they affect the immune system , allowing normally harmless organisms like Candida to become pathogenic and cause an infection . Xerostomia ( dry mouth ) is thought to account for about 5 % of cases of AC . Xerostomia itself has many possible causes , but commonly the cause may be side effects of medications , or conditions such as Sjögren 's syndrome . Conversely , conditions which cause drooling or sialorrhoea ( excessive salivation ) can cause angular cheilitis by creating a constant wet environment in the corners of the mouth . About 25 % of people with Down syndrome appear to have AC . This is due to relative macroglossia , an apparently large tongue in a small mouth , which may constantly stick out of the mouth causing maceration of the corners of the mouth with saliva . Inflammatory bowel diseases ( such as Crohn 's disease or ulcerative colitis ) can be associated with angular cheilitis . In Crohn 's , it is likely the result of malabsorption and immunosuppressive therapy which gives rise to the sores at the corner of the mouth . Glucagonomas are rare pancreatic endocrine tumors which secrete glucagon , and cause a syndrome of dermatitis , glucose intolerance , weight loss and anemia . AC is a common feature of glucagonoma syndrome . Infrequently , angular cheilitis may be one of the manifestations of chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis , and sometimes cases of oropharyngeal or esophageal candidiasis may accompany angular cheilitis . Angular cheilitis may be present in human immunodeficiency virus infection , neutropenia , or diabetes . Angular cheilitis is more common in people with eczema because their skin is more sensitive to irritants . Other conditions possibly associated include plasma cell gingivitis , Melkersson - Rosenthal syndrome , or sideropenic dysphagia ( also called Plummer - Vinson syndrome or Paterson - Brown - Kelly syndrome ) . Drugs ( edit ) Several drugs may cause AC as a side effect , by various mechanisms , such as creating drug - induced xerostomia . Various examples include isotretinoin , indinavir , and sorafenib . Isotretinoin ( Accutane ) , an analog of vitamin A , is a medication which dries the skin . Less commonly , angular cheilitis is associated with primary hypervitaminosis A , which can occur when large amounts of liver ( including cod liver oil and other fish oils ) are regularly consumed or as a result from an excess intake of vitamin A in the form of vitamin supplements . Recreational drug users may develop AC . Examples include cocaine , methamphetamines , heroin , and hallucinogens . Allergic contact dermatitis ( edit ) See also : Allergic contact cheilitis , Allergic contact dermatitis , and Allergic contact stomatitis Patch test Allergic reactions may account for about 25 -- 34 % of cases of generalized cheilitis ( i.e. , inflammation not confined to the angles of the mouth ) . It is unknown how frequently allergic reactions are responsible for cases of angular cheilitis , but any substance capable of causing generalized allergic cheilitis may present involving the corners of the mouth alone . Examples of potential allergens include substances that may be present in some types of lipstick , toothpaste , acne products , cosmetics , chewing gum , mouthwash , foods , dental appliances , and materials from dentures or mercury containing amalgam fillings . It is usually impossible to tell the difference between irritant contact dermatitis and allergic contact dermatitis without a patch test . Diagnosis ( edit ) Photographic Comparison of : 1 ) a Canker Sore - inside the mouth , 2 ) Herpes , 3 ) Angular Cheilitis and 4 ) Chapped Lips . Angular chielitis is normally a diagnosis made clinically . If the sore is unilateral , rather than bilateral , this suggests a local factor ( e.g. , trauma ) or a split syphilitic papule . Angular cheilitis caused by mandibular overclosure , drooling , and other irritants is usually bilateral . The lesions are normally swabbed to detect if Candida or pathogenic bacterial species may be present . Persons with angular cheilitis who wear dentures often also will have their denture swabbed in addition . A complete blood count ( full blood count ) may be indicated , including assessment of the levels of iron , ferritin , vitamin B12 ( and possibly other B vitamins ) , and folate . Classification ( edit ) Angular cheilitis could be considered to be a type of cheilitis or stomatitis . Where Candida species are involved , angular cheilitis is classed as a type of oral candidiasis , specifically a primary ( group I ) Candida - associated lesion . This form angular cheilitis which is caused by Candida is sometimes termed `` Candida - associated angular cheilitis '' , or less commonly , `` monilial perlèche '' . Angular cheilitis can also be classified as acute ( sudden , short - lived appearance of the condition ) or chronic ( lasts a long time or keeps returning ) , or refractory ( the condition persists despite attempts to treat it ) . Management ( edit ) Angular cheilitis being treated with crystal violet tincture There are 4 aspects to the treatment of angular cheilitis . Firstly , potential reservoirs of infection inside the mouth are identified and treated . Oral candidiasis , especially denture - related stomatitis is often found to be present where there is angular cheilitis , and if it is not treated , the sores at the corners of the mouth may often recur . This involves having dentures properly fitted and disinfected . Commercial preparations are marketed for this purpose , although dentures may be left in dilute ( 1 : 10 concentration ) household bleach overnight , but only if they are entirely plastic and do not contain any metal parts , and with rinsing under clean water before use . Improved denture hygiene is often required thereafter , including not wearing the denture during sleep and cleaning it daily . For more information , see Denture - related stomatitis . Secondly , there may be a need to increase the vertical dimension of the lower face to prevent overclosure of the mouth and formation of deep skin folds . This may require the construction of a new denture with an adjusted bite . Rarely , in cases resistant to normal treatments , surgical procedures such as collagen injections ( or other facial fillers such as autologous fat or crosslinked hyaluronic acid ) are used in an attempt to restore the normal facial contour . Other measures which seek to reverse the local factors that may be contributing to the condition include improving oral hygiene , stopping smoking or other tobacco habits and use of a barrier cream ( e.g. zinc oxide paste ) at night . Thirdly , treatment of the infection and inflammation of the lesions themselves is addressed . This is usually with topical antifungal medication , such as clotrimazole , amphotericin B , ketoconazole , or nystatin cream . Some antifungal creams are combined with corticosteroids such as hydrocortisone or triamcinolone to reduce inflammation , and certain antifungals such as miconazole also have some antibacterial action . Diiodohydroxyquinoline is another topical therapy for angular cheilitis . If Staphylococcus aureus infection is demonstrated by microbiological culture to be responsible ( or suspected ) , the treatment may be changed to fusidic acid cream , an antibiotic which is effective against this type of bacteria . Aside from fusidic acid , neomycin , mupirocin , metronidazole , and chlorhexidine are alternative options in this scenario . Finally , if the condition appears resistant to treatment , investigations for underlying causes such as anemia or nutrient deficiencies or HIV infection . Identification of the underlying cause is essential for treating chronic cases . The lesions may resolve when the underlying disease is treated , e.g. with a course of oral iron or B vitamin supplements . Patch testing is recommended by some in cases which are resistant to treatment and where allergic contact dermatitis is suspected . Prognosis ( edit ) Most cases of angular cheilitis respond quickly when antifungal treatment is used . In more long standing cases , the severity of the condition often follows a relapsing and remitting course over time . The condition can be difficult to treat and can be prolonged . Epidemiology ( edit ) AC is a relatively common condition , accounting for between 0.7 -- 3.8 % of oral mucosal lesions in adults and between 0.2 -- 15.1 % in children , though overall it occurs most commonly in adults in the third to sixth decades of life . It occurs worldwide , and both males and females are affected . Angular cheilitis is the most common presentation of fungal and bacterial infections of the lips .

Please help improve it by removing unnecessary details and making it more concise . ( October 2016 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) William `` Bill '' Boss ( Dieter Laser ) , a psychopathic prison warden , watches the end of The Human Centipede 2 ( Full Sequence ) with his accountant , Dwight Butler ( Laurence R. Harvey ) . Bill says that he hates the films as his feet are massaged by his assistant , Daisy ( Bree Olson ) . Daisy replies that she enjoyed them . In response , Bill sucks his finger and inserts it into Daisy 's vagina , telling her that women should not be allowed to voice their opinions . Dwight interrupts , attempting to pitch a `` brilliant idea '' to fix the prison 's horrible retention and violence rates , but he is interrupted by a phone call . Bill and Dwight are then summoned to the scene of an assault within the prison . One of the officers has been stabbed by an inmate . For punishment , Bill decides to stomp on the arm of the prisoner ( Tommy ' Tiny ' Lister ) , exposing the bone and causing immense pain . He promises to do it again when his bones are healed . Back in the Warden 's office , Bill receives a mysterious package . After Dwight asks what it contains , Bill reveals that it is a jar of specially imported , dried African clitorises which he eats `` for strength . '' After eating a few , he receives a threatening prank phone call from one of the inmates ( Jay Tavare ) . Bill waterboards him with three buckets of boiling water , horribly disfiguring him . The inmate tells Bill that he has lost his soul . Governor Hughes ( Eric Roberts ) arrives immediately afterwards , ordering Bill and Dwight to put a stop to the violence and promising that they will both be fired otherwise . In anger and retaliation , Bill orders a ' mass castration ' of the inmates , and castrates one of the prisoners ( Robert LaSardo ) himself . He covers his face in the blood of the inmate and later eats the cooked testicles for lunch , calling it `` Energy Food . '' Daisy is forced to perform fellatio on Bill while Dwight is in the room . Upon completing the act , Daisy eats one of the dried clitorises , mistaking them for candy . Finally , Dwight is able to pitch his idea to Bill . He suggests that all of the prisoners are sutured together mouth - to - anus , forming a giant human prison centipede , claiming that it will be the ultimate deterrent for anyone considering a life of crime . Initially , Bill is opposed to the idea and dismisses it as impossible . However , Bill then has a nightmare about being attacked by the inmates , expressing weakness , and being raped in the kidney by the inmate he castrated . He then becomes visibly more desperate for a means of protection from his inmates . When the director himself , Tom Six , is summoned to the prison , Bill warms up to Dwight 's idea after being assured that it is `` 100 % medically accurate . '' Six gives the prison permission to use his Centipede idea , provided that he is permitted to witness the operation . The first two films are then screened in the prison canteen , showing the prisoners what is going to happen to them . A riot breaks out , and several guards are injured . Bill and Dwight flee to the Warden 's office as they are being chased by prisoners . The prisoners eventually make it to the office , where one inmate beats Daisy into a coma as another masturbates to the sight . Bill jumps out of the window , just as backup arrives and manages to herd the prisoners back to their cells . Bill then goes around each cell and shoots every inmate with tranquilizers , readying them for the operation . It transpires that some inmates are not compatible for the centipede ; one inmate has a stoma , and another is disabled , so Bill kills them both , by placing his gun inside the inmate 's stoma and shooting him , and then shooting the disabled inmate in the head . They also discover an inmate with Crohn 's disease , who has constant diarrhea . Bill orders the castrated man who raped him in a dream to be attached to him as an added punishment . Bill and Dwight go and visit Daisy , who is now in a coma . Dwight reveals that he loves her as Bill rapes her motionless body , despite Dwight 's protests . Tom Six returns to the prison , where he is met by Bill and Dwight . Touring the cells , the trio discover a mentally unstable inmate who is eating his own feces and wants to be sewn into the centipede . Not wanting anyone to enjoy the centipede punishment , Bill shoots and kills the inmate . Bill and Dwight observe the operation with Six , who vomits after seeing the death row inmates being dismembered for a `` special project . '' With the five - hundred person centipede now complete , Governor Hughes arrives and is disgusted at what he sees . Not only has a Human Centipede been created , but a ' Human Caterpillar ' has also been created out of the inmates serving life sentences . This is the same as a Human Centipede , only the limbs of the victims have been removed , meaning they can not move . It is revealed that Daisy has also been accidentally sewn into the Centipede . Hughes concludes that Dwight and Bill are insane and should get the death penalty before leaving the prison in abhorrence . Bill murders Dr. Jones ( Clayton Rohner ) . Hughes then returns to the prison with a sudden change of heart , stating that the Centipede punishment is `` exactly what America needs . '' The film ends with Dwight and Bill celebrating their success . Dwight is shot and killed for trying to take credit for the idea , even though it was his idea in the first place . Cast ( edit ) Dieter Laser as William `` Bill '' Boss Laurence R. Harvey as Dwight Butler Robert LaSardo as Inmate 297 Tommy `` Tiny '' Lister , Jr. as Inmate 178 Jay Tavare as Inmate 346 Eric Roberts as Governor Hughes Bree Olson as Daisy Clayton Rohner as Dr. Jones Tom Six as himself Hamzah Saman as Inmate 093 Peter Blankenstein as Inmate 106 Carlos Ramirez as Inmate 309 Bill Hutchens as Inmate 488 Chris Clanton as Prisoner Akihiro Kitamura as Inmate 333 Production ( edit ) Six noted that casting for the third film was much easier than the first film as more people were familiar with the concept and wanted to do it . To this end Eric Roberts was easier to get , because according to Six , he was a fan of the original . Six decided to cast porn actor Bree Olson because he wanted a female even though the movie was set in an all male prison , but wanted `` the ultimate American female '' , which according to him was a porn actress . Both Laser and Harvey have starred in previous entries as the main antagonists , Dr. Josef Heiter and Martin respectively . Six chose a prison setting to get back to the theme of `` punishment '' that generated the idea for the series , although Six admits that `` I totally ignored in the first two films . '' Six filmed the movie in the style of `` a Hollywood film '' , which according to him meant shooting `` everything widescreen with over-the - top color grading and big Hollywood music '' , after getting encouragement to do so from film festivals audiences Six has noted that this helped bring out how `` ridiculous '' the concept was . Six has stated that some of the crew members did not agree to put their full names in the credit , noting that these same members did not have such reservations about the second part . In order to promote the film , Six distributed 250 hand - signed prints of the film in March 2015 . Release ( edit ) On 7 April 2015 , Entertainment Weekly announced the film 's theatrical and video on demand release date to be 22 May 2015 . The film passed uncut in Australia on 6 May with an R18+ rating and screened in a national tour throughout June with Harvey appearing as a special guest . The film was released on DVD and Blu - ray in Australia on 22 July 2015 . Despite controversy over the second film in the franchise , the film passed uncut in the UK with an 18 certificate and in New Zealand with an R18 certificate . It was released in the UK on 20 July . Critical reception ( edit ) The Human Centipede 3 has received generally negative reviews from critics . On review aggregate website Rotten Tomatoes , the film has a 19 % rating based on 43 reviews with an average rating of 2.2 / 10 . The Rotten Tomatoes critical consensus states that `` Human Centipede fans may find enough extreme body horror in the third installment to satisfy , but filmgoers of every other persuasion are strongly advised to stay far , far away from Final Sequence . '' Metacritic reports an average score of 5 out of 100 , indicating `` overwhelming dislike '' from 15 critics . Entertainment Weekly ranked the film as the second worst movie of 2015 , stating that `` sleazy sadism served with a wink and a smile , Six 's anus - to - mouth trilogy is a satire without any clue of what it 's satirizing . '' Additionally , The A.V. Club also ranked the film as the second worst of 2015 , declaring `` Writer - director Tom Six lives for disapproval , and he 's finally made a movie that basically no one -- not even those amused or unnerved by the past two installments -- could possibly enjoy . '' In his review for Variety , Dennis Harvey notes : `` As with earlier chapters , the packaging is as competent ( if not particularly inspired ) as the content is remedial . Indeed , perhaps the series ' only really good joke has been the inherent absurdism of seeing an ever - rising level of expense , polish and now `` name '' actors applied to something so fundamentally dumb . '' Eddie Goldberger of New York Daily News concludes his review with : `` The movie passes time until it can get to the centipeding . Even the big namesake event , when it finally arrives , is ho - hum . Turns out , whether it 's three people stuck together or 500 , if you 've seen one human centipede , you 've seen them all . '' The New York Times critic Jeannette Catsoulis called the film `` An ugly , claustrophobic celebration of sexual violence that 's anchored by one of the most repellent characters ever to appear on screen : The prison warden Bill Boss . Portrayed by Dieter Laser , Boss is a capering obscenity whose oft - protruding tongue deserves its own agent . '' Greg Cwik of Indiewire gave the film a C - and said : `` Final Sequence is too self - serious to be camp , but too silly to be scary , so Six just settles for gross . '' Home media ( edit ) The Human Centipede 3 ( Final Sequence ) was released on DVD and Blu - ray on 27 October 2015 in the United States . Additionally , a Complete Sequence Blu - ray set was released on the same day .

properties of ocean water because it contains salt
Seawater - wikipedia Seawater Jump to : navigation , search Seawater in the Strait of Malacca Part of a series on Water salinity Salinity levels Fresh water ( < 0.05 % ) Brackish water ( 0.05 -- 3 % ) Saline water ( 3 -- 5 % ) Brine ( > 5 % ) Bodies of water Seawater Salt lake Hypersaline lake Salt pan Brine pool Bodies by salinity Temperature - salinity diagram of changes in density of water Ocean salinity at different latitudes in the Atlantic and Pacific Seawater , or salt water , is water from a sea or ocean . On average , seawater in the world 's oceans has a salinity of about 3.5 % ( 35 g / L , 599 mM ) This means that every kilogram ( roughly one litre by volume ) of seawater has approximately 35 grams ( 1.2 oz ) of dissolved salts ( predominantly sodium ( Na ) and chloride ( Cl ) ions ) . Average density at the surface is 1.025 kg / L. Seawater is denser than both fresh water and pure water ( density 1.0 kg / L at 4 ° C ( 39 ° F ) ) because the dissolved salts increase the mass by a larger proportion than the volume . The freezing point of seawater decreases as salt concentration increases . At typical salinity , it freezes at about − 2 ° C ( 28 ° F ) . The coldest seawater ever recorded ( in a liquid state ) was in 2010 , in a stream under an Antarctic glacier , and measured − 2.6 ° C ( 27.3 ° F ) . Seawater pH is typically limited to a range between 7.5 and 8.4 . However , there is no universally accepted reference pH - scale for seawater and the difference between measurements based on different reference scales may be up to 0.14 units . Contents ( hide ) 1 Geochemistry 1.1 Salinity 1.2 Thermophysical properties of Seawater 2 Compositional differences from freshwater 3 Microbial components 4 Origin 5 Human impacts 6 Human consumption 7 Standard 8 See also 9 References 10 External links Geochemistry ( edit ) Salinity ( edit ) Further information : Salinity § Seawater Annual mean sea surface salinity expressed in the Practical Salinity Scale for the World Ocean . Data from the World Ocean Atlas Although the vast majority of seawater has a salinity of between 31 g / kg and 38 g / kg , that is 3.1 - 3.8 % , seawater is not uniformly saline throughout the world . Where mixing occurs with fresh water runoff from river mouths , near melting glaciers or vast amounts of precipitation ( e.g. Monsoon ) , seawater can be substantially less saline . The most saline open sea is the Red Sea , where high rates of evaporation , low precipitation and low river run - off , and confined circulation result in unusually salty water . The salinity in isolated bodies of water can be considerably greater still - about ten times higher in the case of the Dead Sea . Historically , several salinity scales were used to approximate the absolute salinity of seawater . A popular scale was the `` Practical Salinity Scale '' where salinity was measured in `` practical salinity units ( psu ) '' . The current standard for salinity is the `` Reference Salinity '' scale with the salinity expressed in units of `` g / kg '' . Thermophysical properties of seawater ( edit ) The density of surface seawater ranges from about 1020 to 1029 kg / m , depending on the temperature and salinity . At a temperature of 25 ° C , salinity of 35 g / kg and 1 atm pressure , the density of seawater is 1023.6 kg / m . Deep in the ocean , under high pressure , seawater can reach a density of 1050 kg / m or higher . The density of seawater also changes with salinity . Brines generated by seawater desalination plants can have salinities up to 120 g / kg . The density of typical seawater brine of 120 g / kg salinity at 25 ° C and atmospheric pressure is 1088 kg / m . Seawater pH is limited to the range 7.5 to 8.4 . The speed of sound in seawater is about 1,500 m / s ( whereas speed of sound is usually around 330 m / s in air at roughly 1000hPa pressure , 1 atmosphere ) , and varies with water temperature , salinity , and pressure . The thermal conductivity of seawater is 0.6 W / mK at 25 ° C and a salinity of 35 g / kg . The thermal conductivity decreases with increasing salinity and increases with increasing temperature . Compositional differences from freshwater ( edit ) Seawater elemental composition ( salinity = 3.5 % ) Element Percent by mass Oxygen 85.84 Hydrogen 10.82 Chloride 1.94 Sodium 1.08 Magnesium 0.1292 Sulphur 0.091 Calcium 0.04 Potassium 0.04 Bromide 0.0067 Carbon 0.0028 Vanadium 1.5 × 10 -- 3.3 × 10 Seawater contains more dissolved ions than all types of freshwater . However , the ratios of solutes differ dramatically . For instance , although seawater contains about 2.8 times more bicarbonate than river water , the percentage of bicarbonate in seawater as a ratio of all dissolved ions is far lower than in river water . Bicarbonate ions constitute 48 % of river water solutes but only 0.14 % for seawater . Differences like these are due to the varying residence times of seawater solutes ; sodium and chloride have very long residence times , while calcium ( vital for carbonate formation ) tends to precipitate much more quickly . The most abundant dissolved ions in seawater are sodium , chloride , magnesium , sulfate and calcium . Its osmolarity is about 1000 mOsm / l . Small amounts of other substances are found , including amino acids at concentrations of up to 2 micrograms of nitrogen atoms per liter , which are thought to have played a key role in the origin of life . Microbial components ( edit ) Research in 1957 by the Scripps Institution of Oceanography sampled water in both pelagic and neritic locations in the Pacific Ocean . Direct microscopic counts and cultures were used , the direct counts in some cases showing up to 10 000 times that obtained from cultures . These differences were attributed to the occurrence of bacteria in aggregates , selective effects of the culture media , and the presence of inactive cells . A marked reduction in bacterial culture numbers was noted below the thermocline , but not by direct microscopic observation . Large numbers of spirilli - like forms were seen by microscope but not under cultivation . The disparity in numbers obtained by the two methods is well known in this and other fields . In the 1990s , improved techniques of detection and identification of microbes by probing just small snippets of DNA , enabled researchers taking part in the Census of Marine Life to identify thousands of previously unknown microbes usually present only in small numbers . This revealed a far greater diversity than previously suspected , so that a litre of seawater may hold more than 20,000 species . Dr. Mitchell Sogin from the Marine Biological Laboratory feels that `` the number of different kinds of bacteria in the oceans could eclipse five to 10 million . '' Bacteria are found at all depths in the water column , as well as in the sediments , some being aerobic , others anaerobic . Most are free - swimming , but some exist as symbionts within other organisms -- examples of these being bioluminescent bacteria . Cyanobacteria played an important role in the evolution of ocean processes , enabling the development of stromatolites and oxygen in the atmosphere . Some bacteria interact with diatoms , and form a critical link in the cycling of silicon in the ocean . One anaerobic species , Thiomargarita namibiensis , plays an important part in the breakdown of hydrogen sulphide eruptions from diatomaceous sediments off the Namibian coast , and generated by high rates of phytoplankton growth in the Benguela Current upwelling zone , eventually falling to the seafloor . Bacteria - like Archaea surprised marine microbiologists by their survival and thriving in extreme environments , such as the hydrothermal vents on the ocean floor . Alkalotolerant marine bacteria such as Pseudomonas and Vibrio spp . survive in a pH range of 7.3 to 10.6 , while some species will grow only at pH 10 to 10.6 . Archaea also exist in pelagic waters and may constitute as much as half the ocean 's biomass , clearly playing an important part in oceanic processes . In 2000 sediments from the ocean floor revealed a species of Archaea that breaks down methane , an important greenhouse gas and a major contributor to atmospheric warming . Some bacteria break down the rocks of the sea floor , influencing seawater chemistry . Oil spills , and runoff containing human sewage and chemical pollutants have a marked effect on microbial life in the vicinity , as well as harbouring pathogens and toxins affecting all forms of marine life . The protist dinoflagellates may at certain times undergo population explosions called blooms or red tides , often after human - caused pollution . The process may produce metabolites known as biotoxins , which move along the ocean food chain , tainting higher - order animal consumers . Pandoravirus salinus , a species of very large virus , with a genome much larger than that of any other virus species , was discovered in 2013 . Like the other very large viruses Mimivirus and Megavirus , Pandoravirus infects amoebas , but its genome , containing 1.9 to 2.5 megabases of DNA , is twice as large as that of Megavirus , and it differs greatly from the other large viruses in appearance and in genome structure . In 2013 researchers from Aberdeen University announced that they were starting a hunt for undiscovered chemicals in organisms that have evolved in deep sea trenches , hoping to find `` the next generation '' of antibiotics , anticipating an `` antibiotic apocalypse '' with a dearth of new infection - fighting drugs . The EU - funded research will start in the Atacama Trench and then move on to search trenches off New Zealand and Antarctica . The ocean has a long history of human waste disposal on the assumption that its vast size makes it capable of absorbing and diluting all noxious material . While this may be true on a small scale , the large amounts of sewage routinely dumped has damaged many coastal ecosystems , and rendered them life - threatening . Pathogenic viruses and bacteria occur in such waters , such as Escherichia coli , Vibrio cholerae the cause of cholera , hepatitis A , hepatitis E and polio , along with protozoans causing giardiasis and cryptosporidiosis . These pathogens are routinely present in the ballast water of large vessels , and are widely spread when the ballast is discharged .

The composition of the total salt component is : Cl 55 % , Na 30.6 % , SO 7.7 % , Mg 3.7 % , Ca 1.2 % , K 1.1 % , Other 0.7 % . Note that the diagram is only correct when in units of wt / wt , not wt / vol or vol / vol . Total Molar Composition of Seawater ( Salinity = 35 ) Component Concentration ( mol / kg ) 53.6 Cl 0.546 Na 0.469 Mg 0.0528 SO 0.0282 Ca 0.0103 0.0102 0.00206 Br 0.000844 0.000416 Sr 0.000091 0.000068 Scientific theories behind the origins of sea salt started with Sir Edmond Halley in 1715 , who proposed that salt and other minerals were carried into the sea by rivers after rainfall washed it out of the ground . Upon reaching the ocean , these salts concentrated as more salt arrived over time ( see Hydrologic cycle ) . Halley noted that most lakes that do n't have ocean outlets ( such as the Dead Sea and the Caspian Sea , see endorheic basin ) , have high salt content . Halley termed this process `` continental weathering '' . Halley 's theory was partly correct . In addition , sodium leached out of the ocean floor when the ocean formed . The presence of salt 's other dominant ion , chloride , results from outgassing of chloride ( as hydrochloric acid ) with other gases from Earth 's interior via volcanos and hydrothermal vents . The sodium and chloride ions subsequently became the most abundant constituents of sea salt . Ocean salinity has been stable for billions of years , most likely as a consequence of a chemical / tectonic system which removes as much salt as is deposited ; for instance , sodium and chloride sinks include evaporite deposits , pore - water burial , and reactions with seafloor basalts . Human impacts ( edit ) Climate change , rising atmospheric carbon dioxide , excess nutrients , and pollution in many forms are altering global oceanic geochemistry . Rates of change for some aspects greatly exceed those in the historical and recent geological record . Major trends include an increasing acidity , reduced subsurface oxygen in both near - shore and pelagic waters , rising coastal nitrogen levels , and widespread increases in mercury and persistent organic pollutants . Most of these perturbations are tied either directly or indirectly to human fossil fuel combustion , fertilizer , and industrial activity . Concentrations are projected to grow in coming decades , with negative impacts on ocean biota and other marine resources . One of the most striking features of this is ocean acidification , resulting from increased CO uptake of the oceans related to higher atmospheric concentration of CO and higher temperatures , because it severely affects coral reefs and crustaceans ( see coral bleaching ) . Human consumption ( edit ) Main article : Sea water poisoning See also : Desalination Accidentally consuming small quantities of clean seawater is not harmful , especially if the seawater is taken along with a larger quantity of fresh water . However , drinking seawater to maintain hydration is counterproductive ; more water must be excreted to eliminate the salt ( via urine ) than the amount of water obtained from the seawater itself . The renal system actively regulates sodium chloride in the blood within a very narrow range around 9 g / L ( 0.9 % by weight ) . In most open waters concentrations vary somewhat around typical values of about 3.5 % , far higher than the body can tolerate and most beyond what the kidney can process . A point frequently overlooked in claims that the kidney can excrete NaCl in Baltic concentrations of 2 % ( in arguments to the contrary ) is that the gut can not absorb water at such concentrations , so that there is no benefit in drinking such water . Drinking seawater temporarily increases blood 's NaCl concentration . This signals the kidney to excrete sodium , but seawater 's sodium concentration is above the kidney 's maximum concentrating ability . Eventually the blood 's sodium concentration rises to toxic levels , removing water from cells and interfering with nerve conduction , ultimately producing fatal seizure and cardiac arrhythmia . Survival manuals consistently advise against drinking seawater . A summary of 163 life raft voyages estimated the risk of death at 39 % for those who drank seawater , compared to 3 % for those who did not . The effect of seawater intake on rats confirmed the negative effects of drinking seawater when dehydrated . The temptation to drink seawater was greatest for sailors who had expended their supply of fresh water , and were unable to capture enough rainwater for drinking . This frustration was described famously by a line from Samuel Taylor Coleridge 's The Rime of the Ancient Mariner : `` Water , water , everywhere , And all the boards did shrink ; Water , water , everywhere , Nor any drop to drink . '' Although humans can not survive on seawater , some people claim that up to two cups a day , mixed with fresh water in a 2 : 3 ratio , produces no ill effect . The French physician Alain Bombard survived an ocean crossing in a small Zodiak rubber boat using mainly raw fish meat , which contains about 40 percent water ( like most living tissues ) , as well as small amounts of seawater and other provisions harvested from the ocean . His findings were challenged , but an alternative explanation was not given . In his 1948 book , Kon - Tiki , Thor Heyerdahl reported drinking seawater mixed with fresh in a 2 : 3 ratio during the 1947 expedition . A few years later , another adventurer , William Willis , claimed to have drunk two cups of seawater and one cup of fresh per day for 70 days without ill effect when he lost part of his water supply . During the 18th century , Richard Russell advocated the practice 's medical use in the UK , and René Quinton expanded the advocation of the practice other countries , notably France , in the 20th century . Currently , the practice is widely used in Nicaragua and other countries , supposedly taking advantage of the latest medical discoveries . Most ocean - going vessels desalinate potable water from seawater using processes such as vacuum distillation or multi-stage flash distillation in an evaporator , or , more recently , reverse osmosis . These energy - intensive processes were not usually available during the Age of Sail . Larger sailing warships with large crews , such as Nelson 's HMS Victory , were fitted with distilling apparatuses in their galleys . Animals such as fish , whales , sea turtles , and seabirds , such as penguins and albatrosses have adapted to living in a high saline habitat . For example , sea turtles and saltwater crocodiles remove excess salt from their bodies through their tear ducts . Standard ( edit ) ASTM International has an international standard for artificial seawater : ASTM D1141 - 98 ( Original Standard ASTM D1141 - 52 ) . It is used in many research testing labs as a reproducible solution for seawater such as tests on corrosion , oil contamination , and detergency evaluation .

A reboot of the Disney Channel series Good Morning , Miss Bliss , the show follows a group of friends and their principal . Primarily focusing on lighthearted comedic situations , it occasionally touches on serious social issues , such as drug use , driving under the influence , homelessness , remarriage , death , women 's rights , and environmental issues . The series starred Mark - Paul Gosselaar , Dustin Diamond , Lark Voorhies , Dennis Haskins , Tiffani - Amber Thiessen , Elizabeth Berkley , and Mario Lopez . The show spawned two spin - off series : Saved by the Bell : The College Years ( 1993 -- 1994 ) , a primetime series that follows several of the characters to college , and Saved by the Bell : The New Class ( 1993 -- 2000 ) , a Saturday morning series that follows a new group of students at Bayside High School . The series also spawned two TV movies , Saved by the Bell : Hawaiian Style in 1992 and Saved by the Bell : Wedding in Las Vegas in 1994 . Saved by the Bell , which pre-dates the enforcement of the 1990 Children 's Television Act , has since been classified as educational and informational . The show was named one of the `` 20 Best School Shows of all Time '' by AOL TV .

Engel particularly envisioned one character , Zack Morris , who `` would be that incorrigible kid who could lie to your face , letting you know very well that he 's lying , and make you love him for it all the same . '' Engel insisted that the show could not go on without Zack Morris , but he turned out to be one of the most difficult characters to cast . Engel 's casting director , Shana Landsburg , finally happened across fourteen - year old Mark - Paul Gosselaar and was immediately struck by the teen 's charisma , charm , and good looks . After a quick read - through , Gosselaar was immediately given the role . After casting Zack Morris , the next character sought after was Morris 's nerdy friend , Samuel `` Screech '' Powers . Gosselaar was asked to read through the script with a number of kids , and a second audition was scheduled for finalists . It was Gosselaar himself who insisted that Dustin Diamond was right for the part as he believed Diamond was Screech in real life . After reading through the script , Diamond was given the part , although Engel later found out that he had misread his head shot and Diamond was considerably younger than the rest of the cast -- a fact that , had he been aware , might have prevented Engel from casting him . Lisa Turtle was originally conceived as a rich Jewish princess from Long Island , spoiled , materialistic , and obsessed with shopping . While still casting from the role , African - American actress Lark Voorhies was brought into Engel 's office , and he immediately knew she was perfect for the role despite the fact that it meant rewriting the character . The school principal , Mr. Gerald Belding , as originally conceived on Good Morning , Miss Bliss , was an older , humorless man , and was played in the 1987 pilot by character actor Oliver Clark . After the show was retooled for Disney Channel , the character 's first name was changed to Richard and he was recast , with Dennis Haskins ultimately winning the role . Mr. Belding was rewritten to be significantly younger and to have a much different sense of humor When Good Morning , Miss Bliss was retooled as Saved by the Bell , four actors and their respective characters from the original series were brought over to the new series : Gosselaar , Diamond , Voorhies , and Haskins . The rest of the cast was fired , and Engel sought to replace them with new characters who would complement the old ones . The cast of Saved by the Bell , clockwise from left : Screech , Slater , Lisa , Mr. Belding , Jessie , Zack , and Kelly The first of the new characters , A.C. Slater , was conceived as a young John Travolta type who would be an army brat and wear a leather jacket . He was originally conceived of as Italian - American . However , when all efforts to cast the character were unsuccessful , Engel asked that the part be opened up to other races . Two days later , Mario Lopez , a dancer and drummer of Latino descent from Kids Incorporated auditioned for the role . Lopez was , by far , the best actor who auditioned , and was cast . For Kelly Kapowski , the love interest of both Zack and Slater , producers were able to narrow the field down to three actresses : Tiffani - Amber Thiessen , Elizabeth Berkley , and Jennie Garth . Engel had originally met Thiessen in 1988 while casting for Good Morning , Miss Bliss and was impressed with how much her acting had improved . He wanted her for the role , believing she had the perfect all - American girl appeal for the role , while others felt that Berkley , as the more experienced actress , would be a more reliable choice . Ultimately , Engel convinced the others after a read - through with Lopez , and Thiessen received the role . Engel and the other producers did not want to lose Berkley , however , as she was the strongest actress they 'd seen during casting . Berkley originally auditioned for the role of Karen , a love - interest of Zack 's on Good Morning , Miss Bliss , but lost the role because she was so much taller than Gosselaar at the time . Engel believed that , now that her height was more even with the rest of the cast , she could be perfect . They were not having much luck in casting the third new character , Jessie Spano , who was conceived as a strong , feminist activist and a straight - A student , so Engel suggested offering the role to Berkley , who gladly accepted it . Rounding out the new cast was real - life magician Ed Alonzo as Max , the owner of the gang 's frequent cafe hangout , The Max , who frequently performed magic tricks . Alonzo 's role , however , would ultimately only last through the end of the first season , and he left after a single guest appearance during season two . In 1992 , Saved by the Bell unexpectedly received an order for an additional eleven episodes to be shot after the graduation episode . However , Thiessen and Berkley had already decided to leave the show . Though producers knew they could n't replace Kelly and Jessie , they also knew they could n't leave Lisa as the only girl on the show . A new character , Tori Scott , was created as a cool but pretty biker girl who would also serve as a love interest for Zack and also act as a nemesis for him initially . Leanna Creel was cast for the part . Rather than develop a second new character , the producers decided to rely more on minor recurring characters such as Ginger , Ox , and Big Pete . Production ( edit ) Good Morning , Miss Bliss ( edit ) Main article : Good Morning , Miss Bliss In 1986 , Brandon Tartikoff , then - president of NBC , asked Peter Engel to develop the pilot for a new prime time series , Good Morning , Miss Bliss Tartikoff had been inspired by his sixth grade teacher , Miss Bliss , and had long wanted to make a show about someone like her . The series would focus on Miss Carrie Bliss , a recently married sixth grade teacher at the fictional John F. Kennedy Junior High School in Indianapolis . Though Sandy Duncan was originally considered for the titular role , the series ultimately became a vehicle for former British child star Hayley Mills . Veteran writer Sam Bobrick was brought on to write the episode and the cast included future stars Jonathan Brandis , Brian Austin Green , and Jaleel White . The pilot aired on June 11 , 1987 , but NBC had decided not to pick up the series even before it was shown . Tartikoff did n't want to give up on the show , though , and made a deal with the Disney Channel to air thirteen episodes of the series in prime time . If the initial order did well , Disney was prepared to order an additional seven - seven . The show was completely retooled , with Mills the sole remaining cast member from the pilot . Miss Bliss 's class was changed from the sixth grade to the eight grade , and the kids would be more central to the story . Good Morning , Miss Bliss aired from 1988 to 1989 . However , the show failed to pick up a following and did poorly in the ratings . By the time the last episode aired , Disney had already decided against ordering more . Saved by the Bell ( edit ) Tartikoff felt there had been strong elements to Good Morning , Miss Bliss and wanted to try the show again with a different time slot and a different approach . The elements featuring the kids had been well - received , so Tartikoff wanted to drop Miss Bliss from the show altogether and focus entirely on the teens . NBC had been losing the high end of their animated audience , kids from ten to twelve , so the idea was to create a live action comedy to air on Saturday mornings , a new idea at the time . Engel was skeptical of the new format at first , and did not want to make children 's programming . However , his wife convinced him that making the show would be a worthwhile endeavor , and he soon told Tartikoff he would do the show . Engel felt , however , that Indianapolis was not exciting as a location , and moved the show to a semi-fictional part of Los Angeles , `` the Palisades . '' The main locations of the show would be the teenager 's school , Bayside High , and The Max , a fictional eatery they frequent . In addition , they would film before a live studio audience . The majority of the cast was replaced , and Tartikoff gave a seven episode commitment for the show . In a meeting with Engel and Tartikoff , senior producer Tom Tenowich suggested the name Saved by the Bell . Though Engel hated the name , Tartikoff loved it . The name stuck , and filming commenced , with the first episode , `` Dancing to the Max , '' airing in prime time on August 20 , 1989 .

Titled Saved by the Bell : Hawaiian Style , the film followed the six teenagers from the show as they vacationed in Hawaii with Kelly 's grandfather , Harry Bannister ( Dean Jones ) . They soon discover Mr. Belding also happens to be there , and the seven are caught up in a plan to save Harry 's resort from a greedy developer . The film was written by Bennet Tramer and directed by Don Barnhart . Due to budget constraints , the much of the film was shot in Santa Monica , with only location shots that could not easily be faked were shot in Hawaii . The shooting schedule in Hawaii turned out to be massive , even after Engel and Barnhart scouted the location . Real - life lifeguards were hired as extras during beach scenes to ensure the safety of the cast . Saved by the Bell : Hawaiian Style was ultimately successful in the ratings , and ultimately paved the way for Saved by the Bell : The College Years airing in prime time . Saved by the Bell : Wedding in Las Vegas ( edit ) Following the cancellation of Saved by the Bell : The College Years on a cliffhanger in 1994 , NBC President Warren Littlefield commissioned a second Saved by the Bell film to both conclude the story started in the final episode of Saved by the Bell : The College Years in which Zack and Kelly become engaged , and acts as a series finale for the original Saved by the Bell . The story features Zack , Kelly , Slater , Screech , and Lisa travelling to Las Vegas so Zack and Kelly can elope after their parents disapprove of their impending marriage . Spin - offs ( edit ) The show was popular enough to justify two spin - offs , both of which premiered in 1993 . Saved by the Bell : the College Years ( edit ) Main article : Saved by the Bell : The College Years Following the conclusion of Saved by the Bell , an idea came out of a focus group for Saved by the Bell : The New Class , in addition to creating a new cast of characters , to continue the story of the original Saved by the Bell cast . The new show aired in prime time and feature only Zack , Slater , and Screech from the original cast attending the fictional California University and living in a suite with a new cast of girls . Kelly later joined the cast after the pilot . Although ratings started out promising , they quickly plateaued against the competition of Full House and Rescue 911 , two well - established , popular shows in prime time . Saved by the Bell : The College Years was ultimately cancelled after only one season of nineteen episodes . The events of the final episode would lead directly into the second Saved by the Bell film : Saved by the Bell : Wedding in Las Vegas . Saved by the Bell : the new Class ( edit ) Main article : Saved by the Bell : The New Class In 1993 , NBC decided it wanted to extend the Saved by the Bell franchise with a new show , Saved by the Bell : The New Class . Also set at Bayside , the show would follow a new cast of characters as they navigate their high school years . Reprising his role from the original series was Dennis Haskins , once again as their principal , Mr. Belding . Following the cancellation of Saved by the Bell : The College Years in 1994 , Peter Engel asked Dustin Diamond to reprise his role as Samuel `` Screech '' Powers , who was returning to Bayside on a work - study program as Mr. Belding 's administrative assistant . Saved by the Bell : The New Class ran for seven seasons and 143 episodes , from 1993 to 2000 . The cast was constantly revolving , with Haskins as the only constant throughout all seven seasons . By the end of the series , the show had run out of ideas . The show was not generally well - received , and some today believe that it failed to recapture the charm of the original series . Reunions ( edit ) On April 9 , 2006 , Cartoon Network 's Adult Swim announced that Saved by the Bell would air at midnight as a two - week special starting April 17 . On April 19 , 2006 , Adult Swim also posted on their website that Saved by the Bell was back in production . A week later , the announcement was exposed as a joke . On March 27 , 2009 , NBC 's Late Night with Jimmy Fallon launched a campaign to get the cast on board for a Saved by the Bell reunion . Fans signed an online petition and pledged their support for the cast to reunite on the show . Dennis Haskins , Lark Voorhies , Mario Lopez , Elizabeth Berkley , and Mark - Paul Gosselaar agreed to a reunion . Gosselaar reprised his role as Zack Morris in a skit on Late Night on June 8 , 2009 , while promoting his then current TNT drama , Raising the Bar . The spoof interview closed with a performance of `` Friends Forever , '' originally by Zack Attack , where Zack played guitar and sang with backing from Fallon 's house band , The Roots . Tiffani Thiessen posted a parody video to the website Funny or Die , where she claimed she was too busy to join the reunion . The cast reunited in August 2009 for a photo shoot in People Magazine . Diamond was not invited to participate in the photo shoot because of poor relationships with the rest of the cast . Diamond 's image was also edited out of the 1989 cast photo that was used on the cover inset of an issue of People Magazine to show how the cast looked 20 years later . The cast convened again when Haskins , Diamond , Gosselaar , Voorhies , and Lopez did their own voices in a Saved by the Bell Saw parody , called `` Sawed by the Bell '' , on `` Boo Cocky '' , a season three episode of Robot Chicken . Gosselaar also provided audio commentary for the episode on the DVD . On February 4 , 2015 , the cast appeared on a skit on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon while episodes of the program were taped in Los Angeles . Haskins , Gosselaar , Lopez , Berkley and Thiessen all participated , though Voorhies and Diamond did not , with Thiessen 's real - life pregnancy , Lopez 's involvement with Dancing with the Stars and Berkley 's film Showgirls the targets of some of the humor . Theme song ( edit ) The theme song for Saved by the Bell was written by composer Scott Gayle against the implicit instructions of Engel . Though Engel had not been able to keep the show from being named Saved by the Bell , he was determined to prevent the phrase from showing up in the theme . He gave explicit orders to his team of composers that he would not accept any theme that referenced the title , and the group agreed to leave out the phrase . A week later , Engel listened to the first four composers and , though they followed his instructions , the songs were flat and nothing special . Gayle played his song next and , though he explicitly violated Engel 's instructions , Engel could n't help but admit it was the best and perfect for the show . Engel would later comment that he was glad Gayle had not followed his instructions . Merchandise ( edit ) DVD releases ( edit ) Lionsgate Home Entertainment released all four seasons of Saved By The Bell , broken into five seasons ( season 4 split in two ) on DVD in Region 1 .

Seven issues were released , including a Christmas and a Summer special . The comic was generally not well - received , with comic book critic Matt D. Wilson saying `` its character likenesses for the show 's starts were rough at best . '' In 2014 , Lion Forge Comics announced that its new all - ages imprint , ROAR Comics , would publish a new Saved by the Bell comic . Set initially during the gang 's freshman year of high school , the comic serves as a modern update to the classic series . It premiered in March 2014 alongside ROAR 's adaptation of Punky Brewster . Behind the Bell ( edit ) In 2009 , Dustin Diamond published an inside story of the show 's cast and crew from his point of view , entitled Behind the Bell . The book paints an unflattering portrait of many of Diamond 's colleagues and their alleged backstage behavior . Some of Diamond 's claims have been refuted by colleagues and questioned by critics . Diamond also alleges in the book that he had sex with 2,000 women , one of them being NBC 's Vice President of children 's programming , Linda Mancuso , who was 18 years his senior . Diamond later disclaimed responsibility for much of the book 's content , blaming his ghostwriter for fabricating salacious stories . The Unauthorized Saved by the Bell Story aired on Lifetime on September 1 , 2014 . Bayside ! The Musical ! The Saved by the Bell parody ( edit ) In September 2013 , Bayside ! The Musical ! The unauthorized parody of Saved by the Bell opened at NYC 's Theatre 80 . Bayside ! The Musical ! was named a New York Times Critics ' Pick . Bayside ! The Musical ! was written and directed by Bob and Tobly McSmith , the same creative team behind Showgirls ! The Musical ! In contrast to the wholesome nature of Saved by the Bell , Bayside ! The Musical ! contains strong language and adult situations throughout . The show 's run has been extended 6 times . Bayside ! originally debuted in 2005 under the title Bayside ! The UnMusical ! The following year a sequel was produced called Bayside 2 ! Electric Screechio The show then took several years off , reopening in 2012 at NYC 's Kraine Theatre with a revamped script and new cast Following the success of Showgirls ! The Musical ! the show 's creators Bob and Tobly McSmith revisited their script and reworked it from the ground up . The show has had appearances from original Saved by the Bell cast members such as Dustin Diamond and Dennis Haskins .

She also appeared on The Dana Carvey Show in March 1996 , reading a Top Ten List , `` New Titles for Princess Diana . '' Contents ( hide ) 1 About the character 2 Memorable moments 3 Popular catchphrases 4 See also 5 References 6 External links About the character ( edit ) Created and played by Dana Carvey , The Church Lady is a mature woman named `` Enid Strict , '' who is the uptight , smug and pious host of her own talk show , Church Chat . Enid is a spoof of `` holier - than - thou '' Christian churchgoers . On her show ( which only lasts the duration of the sketch itself ) she has multiple guests , usually celebrities of the time played by other cast members of SNL or by the actual celebrities themselves ( usually whoever is guest - hosting that week 's SNL episode , appearing as themselves ) , who appear to be interviewed by her . However , the interviews are only a guise for her to call the celebrity guests out on their various alleged sins ( which are often publicly known news events of the day ) . They initially receive sarcastic praises from her , until the interview eventually degrades into a tirade against their apparent lack of piety and their secular lifestyles , culminating with her judgmental admonishments and damnation . She often takes others to task for following the desires of their `` naughty parts . '' The Church Lady is known for always wearing a matching blue and purple sweater / dress set , visible knee - high stockings , and a pair of cat 's eye horn - rimmed glasses . She was known for the catchphrases , `` Well , is n't that SPE - CIAL ? ! '' , `` How con - VEEN - ient ! '' , and `` Could it be ... SATAN ? '' ( in later years , the latter would always end with a haunting echo ) . When sufficiently satisfied with herself , she would mug for the camera , while twitching the corners of her mouth from one side to the other for an indefinite length of time . She also gave advice in response to letters she ostensibly received . Furthermore , whenever she felt that she had demonstrated her superiority , she would do her `` Superior dance '' in which she would rhythmically strut to organ music ( played by an organist named Pearl , who was played by musical director Cheryl Hardwick ) in front of her alleged inferiors . Like her actor and several of his well - known characters , she is a proficient drummer although this is only seen once . Carvey said he based the character on women he knew from his church growing up , who would keep track of his and others ' attendance . The Church Lady became immediately recognizable and played an important role in SNL 's resurgence in the mid-1980s . She made numerous appearances on SNL ; Nora Dunn recalled that `` everybody loved that character and ( Carvey ) was pressured to do it so , so often , '' and The Church Lady reappeared even after Carvey 's departure from the show as a regular cast member . She was never incorporated into a feature - length film , however , as many of SNL 's other recurring characters were . Memorable moments ( edit ) Dana Carvey recalls that he was prompted by executive producer Lorne Michaels to introduce the character ( when it was still in SNL rehearsals ) at a Neil Young concert at Madison Square Garden , which Church Lady interrupted , fussing and fuming : `` What are we doing here ? What 's all this noise ? '' During the first season Dana Carvey appeared as a cast regular on Saturday Night Live , Joe Montana and Walter Payton co-hosted the show and both appeared in a Church Lady skit for a game of football with Church Lady . Montana throws a touchdown pass to Church Lady after she distracted Payton ( who was playing defense against her ) and hid in the audience . At the end of the sketch , all three did the `` superior dance . '' A classic moment was in March 1987 when she interviewed Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker ( played by Phil Hartman and Jan Hooks ) at the height of the sex scandal involving Jim Bakker and Jessica Hahn . During the show the televangelists begged for donations , and a mascara - dripping Tammy Faye recounted her experience with `` demonic raisins . '' Another notable moment in October 1987 featured actor Sean Penn , playing himself as a guest on the show . During the interview , the Church Lady ( who calls him `` Sin , '' and then quickly corrects her `` mistake '' ) makes numerous references to his then - wife Madonna , and her overt sexuality , claiming Madonna `` does n't quite live up to her namesake . '' The more she goes on about his wife 's `` bulbous buttocks gyrating '' and her displaying of her `` chestal area , '' the more angered Penn becomes , until he eventually throws a punch , hitting her directly in the nose . Carvey recalls that he was genuinely scared because Penn ( who was well known for losing his temper ) came dangerously close to actually hitting him . Jan Hooks would appear again on the sketch in December 1987 , this time playing Jessica Hahn , of whom the Church Lady said in a sarcastic tone `` Oh , sit right down , Jessie . Here we are not like those other talk shows that fawn all over you . No , siree ! '' Jessica Hahn claims that she is tired of degradation , to which the Church Lady produces the Playboy for which she posed ( only the cover is shown ) . Jessica Hahn says that that type of degradation had her authorization and `` I am free to degrade myself only how I see fit ! For once Jessica Hahn is in control of her life ! '' and then goes on to say `` Being used and degraded in a hotel room in Florida was not my decision . Being used and degraded in the pages of this magazine , that was my decision . I am in control of being used and degraded ! '' Though the sketch routinely mocked popular celebrity scandals , in 1989 , guest host Rob Lowe managed to avoid having his various sex scandals of the day ( including the leaking of a sex tape involving the actor ) mentioned per a special deal he cut with the Church Lady . In return for her silence on his various sex scandals , Rob Lowe submitted to corporal punishment at the end of the interview . However , Rob Lowe began to enjoy being spanked by the Church Lady , who took this as a sign that Satan had possessed Lowe 's butt and began screaming for Satan to leave the actor 's body . Another sketch in February 1990 found child actor Fred Savage playing the Church Lady 's niece , Enid . Savage was dressed in a miniature version of Church Lady 's outfit and glasses , and co-spoke all of the familiar admonishing catchphrases , as well as performing the `` Superior Dance '' at the beginning of the sketch . In the same sketch was a visit from Donald Trump ( as played by Phil Hartman ) , right after his legendary divorce . The Church Lady scolded him and his `` Jezebel , '' to which Trump responded by frankly telling her that he `` could buy and sell this freak show , or dog and pony act , or whatever . '' The Church Lady responded that `` if you could do that then Enid is just some little boy in a dress . '' In a teaser trailer for the 1990 film Opportunity Knocks ( available on that film 's DVD ) , Church Lady interrupts , warning viewers not to see the film and is punched in the face and knocked to the floor by Dana Carvey who introduces himself . Church Lady retaliates and the fight continues offscreen as the trailer ends . Another notable sketch , in October 2000 , featured The Church Lady interviewing Anne Heche ( played by Chris Kattan ) , with the Church Lady teasing Anne about her bisexuality by offering her a snack and giving her the choice between a `` wiener '' and a `` taco '' ( implying a choice between two obvious body parts ) and referring to a bisexual as someone who `` reaches down the front of somebody 's pants and they 're satisfied with whatever they find . '' Sometimes the Church Lady was accompanied by a character known as `` Minister Bob , '' played by Chevy Chase . He seemed to be the only person the Church Lady admired . During a church picnic an inebriated woman interrupted the gathering , shocking all the old ladies present , and saying how the Church Lady acts so high and mighty but is out of touch with the problems of people in everyday life . Minister Bob then acts more down to earth than the Church Lady , saying it is the responsibility of a pastor to deal with people with problems . When he seems to be leading the woman into why problem drinking is a bad idea , he ends with saying `` ... because of SATAN ! '' , and joins the Church Lady in her Superior dance . Toward the end of the character 's run , a parody sketch of the film Misery aired in which Dana Carvey is doing a stand - up tour in Colorado , and announces to the audience this is a special day as it is the last time he will ever do a Church Lady sketch . He is then driving in a snowstorm with Jon Lovitz , where Carvey says it was about time to put the Church Lady to rest and not make it a running gag . Lovitz ( who played Satan in a December 1988 Church Lady sketch ) pathetically asks if he can now play her ( Lovitz ' stalled career was a running joke on SNL the season after his official departure ) , but is interrupted by heavy snow flurries crushing the car . Carvey is rescued by guest star Roseanne Barr , playing the Church Lady 's disturbingly obsessed Number One Fan , who is so gleeful at rescuing Carvey and buys him things such as `` orthopedic shoes , just like the Church Lady wears ! '' However , she becomes furious when she reads a comedy review saying Carvey has stopped doing the Church Lady , and intends to hold him until he promises to resume playing her . Reciting the lines was not good enough either , as Roseanne holds Carvey at gunpoint forcing him to wear the Church Lady wig and get her facial expressions and voice just right . Lorne Michaels tries to find the missing Carvey , but becomes increasingly uninterested , deciding instead to promote the `` Makin ' Copies '' character , played by Rob Schneider . The skit ends with Carvey and Roseanne in a climactic fight scene , but Roseanne comically keeps getting back up . She and then Carvey are shot by the still - alive Jon Lovitz , who claims the Church Lady character for himself . The Church Lady appeared on ABC 's The Dana Carvey Show as part of a larger sketch where a viewer letter asked whether Dana Carvey 's SNL characters were to appear on the show . The sketch responded by claiming that ABC used Disney 's high - profile lawyers to engage NBC in a hostile takeover , gaining the rights to Carvey 's SNL characters , as well as some of the IPs of David Letterman 's show on CBS . It then cuts to the Church Lady reading David Letterman 's Top Ten List . Carvey reprised the character and sketch when he hosted the show in its 36th season , the Church Lady interviewing `` the Kardashian sisters '' , attempting to exorcise `` Snooki '' , and notably becoming enraptured and aroused by Justin Bieber before being settled down by God . In 2016 , The Church Lady was the opening skit on May 7th ( season 41 , episode 19 ) with Ted Cruz ( Taran Killam ) and Donald Trump ( Darrell Hammond ) as her guests . Cruz , who had been recently called `` Lucifer in the flesh '' by John Boehner , reappeared mid sketch as the Devil after The Church Lady called Trump `` an orange mannequin '' . She also appeared as a guest on the show 's Weekend Update segment a few days before the November 2016 election , describing the election as a choice between `` a bitter , female android from the ' 90s ... or a riverboat gambler with a big tummy and an orange head '' . Popular catchphrases ( edit ) `` Well , is n't that special ? '' `` How con - VEEN - ient ! '' `` Now , who could it be ? Could it be ... Satan ? '' ( During a Christmas - themed December broadcast , using a magnetic spelling board , she rearranged letters spelling `` Santa '' to reveal `` Satan '' . ) `` We like ourselves , do n't we ? '' ( Usually directed at a guest on her show ) `` Ah yes , from the Chippewa word meaning drop your shorts , we do n't have much time .

what notes make up an a minor chord
Minor chord - wikipedia Minor chord Jump to : navigation , search minor triad <Th_colspan="2"> Component intervals from root <Td_colspan="2"> perfect fifth <Td_colspan="2"> minor third <Td_colspan="2"> root <Th_colspan="2"> Tuning <Td_colspan="2"> 10 : 12 : 15 <Th_colspan="2"> Forte no . / Complement <Td_colspan="2"> 3 - 11 / 9 - 11 Minor chord on C play ( help info ) . In music theory , a minor chord ( play D minor chord ( help info ) ) is a chord having a root , a minor third , and a perfect fifth . When a chord has these three notes alone , it is called a minor triad . Some minor triads with additional notes , such as the minor seventh chord , may also be called minor chords . Minor and major third in a minor chord : minor third on bottom , major third on top Play ( help info ) . A minor triad can also be described as a minor third interval with a major third interval on top or as a root note , a note 3 semitones higher than the root , and a note 7 semitones higher than the root . Hence it can be represented by the integer notation ( 0 , 3 , 7 ) . A major chord ( play ( help info ) ) differs from a minor chord in having a major third above the root instead of a minor third . It can also be described as a major third with a minor third on top , in contrast to a minor chord , which has a minor third with a major third on top . They both contain fifths , because a major third ( 4 semitones ) plus a minor third ( 3 semitones ) equals a fifth ( 7 semitones ) . A diminished chord is a minor chord with a lowered fifth . play ( help info ) An example of a minor chord is the C minor chord , which consists of the notes C ( root ) , E ♭ ( minor third ) and G ( perfect fifth ) : Play C minor chord in root position ( help info ) . An A minor chord ( consisting of notes A , C , E ) in its root position , first inversion , and second inversion , respectively Play A minor chord and inversions ( help info ) The minor chord , along with the major chord , is one of the basic building blocks of tonal music and the common practice period . In Western music , a minor chord , in comparison , `` sounds darker than a major chord '' but is still considered highly consonant , stable , or as not requiring resolution . Acoustic consonance of the minor chord ( edit ) This section does not cite any sources . Please help improve this section by adding citations to reliable sources . Unsourced material may be challenged and removed . ( March 2017 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) A unique particularity of the minor chord is that this is the only chord of three notes in which the three notes have one harmonic -- hearable and with a not too high row -- in common ( more or less exactly , depending on the tuning system used ) . This harmonic , common to the three notes , is situated 2 octaves above the high note of the chord . This is the sixth harmonic of the root of the chord , the fifth of the middle note , and the fourth of the high note : In the example C , E ♭ , G , the common harmonic is a G 2 octaves above . Demonstration : Minor third = 6 : 5 = 12 : 10 Major third = 5 : 4 = 15 : 12 So the ratios of minor chord are 10 : 12 : 15 And the explication of the unique harmonic in common , between the three notes , is verified by : 10 × 6 = 12 × 5 = 15 × 4 Just intonation ( edit ) An illustration of the harmonic series as musical notation . The numbers above the harmonic indicate the number of cents it deviates from equal temperament . Red notes are sharp . Blue notes are flat . In just intonation , a minor chord is often ( but not exclusively ) tuned in the frequency ratio 10 : 12 : 15 ( play ( help info ) ) . This is the first occurrence of a minor triad in the harmonic series ( if on C : E -- G -- B ) . This may be found on iii , vi , ♭ vi , ♭ iii , and vii . In 12 - TET , or twelve - tone equal temperament ( now the most common tuning system in the West ) , a minor chord has 3 semitones between the root and third , 4 between the third and fifth , and 7 between the root and fifth . It is represented by the integer notation 0 , 3 , 7 . The 12 - TET fifth ( 700 cents ) is only two cents narrower than the just perfect fifth ( 3 : 2 , 701.9 cents ) , but the 12 - TET minor third ( 300 cents ) is noticeably ( about 16 cents ) narrower than the just minor third ( 6 : 5 , 315.6 cents ) . The 12 - TET minor third ( 300 cents ) more closely approximates the 19 - limit ( Limit ( music ) ) minor third 16 : 19 Play ( help info ) ( 297.5 cents , the nineteenth harmonic ) with only 2 cents error . Ellis proposes that the conflict between mathematicians and physicists on one hand and practicing musicians on the other regarding the supposed inferiority of the minor chord and scale to the major may be explained due to physicists ' comparison of just minor and major triads , in which case minor comes out the loser , versus the musicians ' comparison of the equal tempered triads , in which case minor comes out the winner since the ET major third is 14 cents sharp from the just major third while the ET minor third closely approximates the consonant 19 : 16 minor third , which many find pleasing . In the 16th through 18th centuries , prior to 12 - TET , the minor third in meantone temperament was 310 cents Play ( help info ) and much rougher than the 300 cent ET minor third . Other just minor chord tunings include the supertonic triad in just intonation ( 27 : 32 : 40 ) the false minor triad , Play ( help info ) , 16 : 19 : 24 Play ( help info ) , 12 : 14 : 18 ( 6 : 7 : 9 ) Play ( help info ) ( septimal minor third ) , and the Pythagorean minor triad ( 54 : 64 : 81 ) Play ( help info ) . More tunings of the minor chord are also available in various equal temperaments other than 12 - TET . Rather than directly from the harmonic series , Sorge derived the minor chord from joining two major triads ; for example the A minor triad being the confluence of the F and C major triads . A -- C -- E = F -- A -- C -- E -- G. Given justly tuned major triads this produces a justly tuned minor triad : 10 : 12 : 15 on 8 : 5 .

The Capitol was utilized as a concert space throughout the 1970s , 1980s and 1990s , and featured performances by such acts as Pink Floyd , Johnnie Winter Rick Derringer The Grateful Dead , Janis Joplin , Parliament - Funkadelic and Traffic . The Grateful Dead played 13 dates at the Capitol Theatre in a one - year span from 1970 - 1971 . American Songwriter notes that `` Many fans think those shows were some of the best the band ever played . '' Janis Joplin debuted her song Mercedes Benz at the theater , to the surprise of her band , after writing it at a bar nearby . In 1984 , the Capitol Theatre was added to the National Register of Historic Places . In the 1980s , the frequency of live events at the theatre diminished , partially due to a village curfew for live music after 1 : 00 am . The Capitol would host off - Broadway plays and musicals , and events run by the Port Chester Council of the Arts . The 1990s would see some live music again , with the likes of Phish , Blues Traveler , Spin Doctors and Strangefolk . Both David Bowie and the Rolling Stones performed at the Capitol in 1997 , as part of episodes of the MTV television program Live From The 10 Spot . Catering hall ( edit ) The theatre later became a catering and special - events facility , run by owner Marvin Ravikoff . The lower level seats were removed to create a flat space for tables and a dance floor for weddings , Bar Mitzvot and other events . Reopening as concert venue ( edit ) In December 2011 , The New York Times announced that the theatre was to be reopened by music entrepreneur Peter Shapiro , owner of the Brooklyn Bowl and former owner of the NYC club Wetlands Preserve , to present major concerts at the venue , in partnership with concert promoter The Bowery Presents . A multimillion - dollar renovation took place ; `` state - of - the - art '' sound and lighting equipment was installed . Part of the renovations included acquiring the adjacent Capitol Jewelers store and converting it into a bar , which is open to the public most nights when the theatre does not have an event . The bar , with the approval of the estate of the Garcia family , was named `` Garcia 's '' in honor of Grateful Dead guitarist Jerry Garcia . The Capitol Theatre reopened on September 4 , 2012 , with Bob Dylan as its first act . Initially , Shapiro had a long - term lease on the Capitol Theatre , which , at the time , was owned by Marvin Ravikoff . In December 2012 , Shapiro purchased the theatre . The theatre has hosted many famous performers and top acts such as , BB King , Furthur , Willie Nelson , the Black Crowes , George Lopez , Elvis Costello & The Roots , Steely Dan , Al Green , the B - 52s , and Yo Gabba Gabba . In 2013 alone the venue hosted Dawes , Blondie , Pat Benatar , Billy Idol , the Rascals , and Chicago , and scheduled Neil Young , Willie Nelson , Chris Isaak , Yes , Foreigner , Patti Smith , Courtney Love , Bonnie Raitt , Jonny Lang , Cyndi Lauper , Herbie Hancock and many other top performers . On November 3 , 2013 , The New York Times reported that Phil Lesh , longtime bass player of the Grateful Dead , would play 45 shows with Shapiro of which 30 would take place at the Capitol Theatre and the first at Brooklyn Bowl on November 14 , 2013 . Since Lesh 's retirement from touring in 2014 he has performed multiple residencies each year at the Capitol Theatre in addition to performing other shows at his own venue , Terrapin Crossroads in San Rafael , California , and occasionally other venues , often ones owned by Shapiro . The Capitol Theatre was the filming location for comedian Bo Burnham 's stand - up special Make Happy .

where did the idea of godparents come from
Godparent - wikipedia Godparent Jump to : navigation , search `` Godson '' redirects here . For other uses , see Godson ( disambiguation ) . `` Godchild '' redirects here . For the manga series , see Earl Cain . `` Padrino '' redirects here . For the web application framework , see Padrino ( web framework ) . Detail from the `` Baptism Window '' at St. Mary 's Episcopal Cathedral in Memphis , Tennessee , showing godparents from the mid-20th century . A godparent ( also known as a sponsor ) , in many denominations of Christianity , is someone who bears witness to a child 's baptism , although the term has also been used in a legal sense . In both religious and civil views , a godparent tends to be an individual chosen by the parents to take an interest in the child 's upbringing and personal development , and to take care of the child should anything happen to the parents . A male godparent is a godfather , and a female godparent is a godmother . The child is a godchild ( i.e. godson for boys and goddaughter for girls ) .

The requirement for some confession of faith necessitated the use of adults who acted as sponsors for the child . They vocalized the confession of faith and acted as guarantors of the child 's spiritual upbringing . Normally , these sponsors were the natural parents of a child , as emphasized in 408 by St. Augustine who suggested that they could , it seems exceptionally , be other individuals . Within a century , the Corpus Juris Civilis indicates that parents had been replaced in this role almost completely . This was clarified in 813 when the Council of Munich prohibited natural parents from acting as godparents to their own children . By the 5th century , male sponsors were referred to as `` spiritual fathers '' , and by the end of the 6th century , they were being noted to as `` compaters '' and `` commaters '' , suggesting that these were being seen as spiritual co-parents . This pattern was marked by the creation of legal barriers to marriage that paralleled those for other forms of kin . A decree of Justinian , dated to 530 , outlawed marriage between a godfather and his goddaughter , and these barriers continued to multiply until the 11th century , forbidding marriage between natural and spiritual parents , or those directly related to them . As confirmation emerged as a separate rite from baptism from the 8th century , a second set of sponsors , with similar prohibitions , also emerged . The exact extent of these spiritual relationships as a bar to marriage in Catholicism was unclear until the Council of Trent , which limited it to relationships between the godparents , the child , and the parents . During the Reformation ( edit ) Luther , Zwingli , and Calvin preserved infant baptism against the attacks of more radical reformers including Anabaptists , and with it , sponsors at baptism . However , Luther strongly objected to the marriage barriers it created , Zwingli stressed the role of parents and pastors , rather than the `` witnesses '' , in religious instruction , and Calvin and his followers tended to prefer the sponsors to be the natural parents . A single godparent was retained in baptism at Geneva and among French Calvinists , but some followers of Calvin , most notably in Scotland and eventually the English colonies in America , rejected them altogether . Numbers of sponsors ( edit ) In the early church , one sponsor seems to have been the norm , but in the early Middle Ages , there seems to have been two , one of each sex , and this practice has been largely maintained in Orthodox Christianity . In 888 , the Catholic Council of Metz attempted to limit the number to one , but proliferation seems to have continued . In early 14th - century Spain , as many as 20 godparents were being chosen . In England , the Synod of Worcester ( 1240 ) stipulated three sponsors ( two of the same sex and one of the opposite ) , and this has remained the norm in the Church of England . The Council of Trent attempted to limit the numbers of godparents to one or two , but practice has differed across the Catholic world . Modern practices ( edit ) Anglican Communion ( edit ) The Church of England , the mother Church of the Anglican Communion , retained godparents in baptism , formally removing the marriage barriers in 1540 , but the issue of the role and status of godparents continued to be debated in the English Church . They were abolished in 1644 by the Directory of Public Worship promulgated by the English Civil War Parliamentary regime , but continued to be used in some parishes in the north of England . After the Restoration in 1660 , they were reintroduced to Anglicanism , with occasional objections , but dropped by almost every dissenting church . There is some evidence that the restored institution had lost some of its social importance as well as its universality . At present , in the Church of England , relatives can stand as godparents , and although it is not clear that parents can be godparents , they sometimes are . Godparents should be both baptized and confirmed ( although it is not clear in which Church ) , but the requirement for confirmation can be waived . There is no requirement for clergy to baptize those from outside their parishes , and baptism can be reasonably delayed so that the conditions , including suitable godparents , can be met . As a result , individual clergy have considerable discretion over the qualifications of godparents . Many `` contemporary Anglican rites likewise require parents and godparents to respond on behalf of infant ( baptismal ) candidates . '' Lutheran churches ( edit ) Lutherans follow a similar theology of godparents as Roman Catholics . They believe that godparents `` help ( children ) with their Christian upbringing , especially if they should lose their parents '' . Lutherans , like Roman Catholics , believe that a godparent must be both a baptized and confirmed Christian . Some Lutherans also follow the Roman Catholic tradition that a Christian who is not affiliated with the Lutheran denomination may serve as a witness rather than a godparent . Methodist Church ( edit ) The Book of Discipline stipulates that it is the duty of a godparent , also known as a sponsor , `` to provide training for the children of the Church throughout their childhood that will lead to a personal commitment to Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior , to an understanding of the Christian faith , and to an appreciation of the privileges and obligations of baptism and membership ( ¶ 225.4 ) . '' John Wesley , the founder of the Methodist Church , wrote a homily titled `` Serious Thoughts Concerning Godfathers and Godmothers '' in which he stated that godparents are `` spiritual parents to the baptized , whether they were infants or ( adults ) ; and were expected to supply whatever spiritual helps were wanting either through the death or neglect of the natural parents . '' He described the role of godparents , instructing that they should call upon their godchild `` to hear sermons , and shall provide that he ( / she ) may learn the Creed , the Lord 's Prayer , and the Ten Commandments , and all other things which a Christian ought to know and believe to his soul 's health ; and that this child be virtuosly brought up , to lead a godly and a Christian life . '' As such , the Book of Worship states that godparents / sponsors should be `` selected carefully '' and `` should be members of Christ 's holy Church ; and it is the duty of pastors to instruct them concerning the significance of Holy Baptism , their responsibilities for the Christian training of the baptized child , and how these obligations may be fulfilled . '' Orthodox Church ( edit ) The Orthodox institution of godparenthood has been the least affected of the major traditions by change . In some Orthodox churches ( Serbian , Greek ) usually the best man ( кум , koumbaros ) or bridesmaid ( kuma , кума , koumbara ) at a couple 's wedding act as a godparent to the first or all children of the marriage . In some instances , the godfather is responsible for naming the child . A godparent to a child will then act as a sponsor at the child 's wedding . Godparents are expected to be in good standing in the Orthodox church , including its rulings on divorce , and aware of the meaning and responsibilities of their role . They can not be a minor or a parent of the child , and at least one sponsor must be Orthodox . Reformed churches ( edit ) In the Reformed tradition that includes the Continental Reformed , Congregationalist and Presbyterian Churches , the godparents are more often referred to as sponsors , who have the role of standing with the child during infant baptism and pledging to instruct the child in the faith . In the bapismal liturgy of Reformed Geneva , `` the traditional presence of godparents was retained '' . John Calvin , the progenitor of the Reformed tradition , himself served as a godparent during forty - seven baptisms . The Reformed Church in Geneva , in order to ensure confessional orthodoxy , `` expected parents to select Reformed godparents . '' Today , many Reformed churches invite parents to select godparents for their prospective neophyte , while other parishes entrust this responsibility to the whole congregation . Roman Catholic Church ( edit ) A child being baptized with her parents and godparents . The Catholic institution of godparenthood survived the Reformation largely unchanged . A godparent must normally be an appropriate person , at least sixteen years of age , a confirmed Catholic who has received the Eucharist , not under any canonical penalty , and may not be the parent of the child . Someone who belongs to another Christian church can not become a godparent but can be a ' witness ' in conjunction with a Catholic sponsor . A witness does not have any religious role recognized by the Church . In 2015 , the Vatican declared that transgender Catholics can not become godparents , stating in response to a transgender man 's query that transgender status `` reveals in a public way an attitude opposite to the moral imperative of solving the problem of sexual identity according to the truth of one 's own sexuality '' and that , `` ( t ) herefore it is evident that this person does not possess the requirement of leading a life according to the faith and in the position of godfather and is therefore unable to be admitted to the position of godfather or godmother . '' Spiritual Kinship ( edit ) See also : Compadre In some Catholic and Orthodox countries , particularly in southern Europe , Latin America , and the Philippines , the relationship between parents and godparents or co-godparents has been seen as particularly important and distinctive . These relationships create mutual obligations and responsibilities that may be socially useful for participants . The Portuguese and Spanish compadre ( literally , `` co-father '' ) and comadre ( `` co-mother '' ) , the French marraine and parrain , and the archaic meaning of the English word gossip ( from godsib , `` godsibling '' ) , describe these relationships . By extension , they can also be used to describe a friendship . The Spanish and Portuguese words for the godparent roles are used for members of the wedding party -- padrino / padrinho meaning `` godfather '' or `` best man '' and madrina / madrinha meaning `` godmother '' or `` matron of honor '' , reflecting the custom of baptismal sponsors acting in this role in a couple 's wedding . The Spanish custom was also adopted in the Philippines , a predominantly Christian country in Southeast Asia that was a former part of the Spanish Empire . The Filipino terms ninong for godfather and ninang for godmother , were also borrowed from Hispanic custom , and apply to godparents in both a child 's Baptism and the child 's later Confirmation . In the context of a wedding , the terms instead refer to the principal sponsors of the couple . Literature and folklore ( edit ) See also : Fairy godmother Godparents are noted features of fairy tales and folklore written from the 17th century onwards , and by extension , have found their way into many modern works of fiction . In Godfather Death , presented by the Brothers Grimm , the archetype is , unusually , a supernatural godfather . However , most are a fairy godmother as in versions of Cinderella , Sleeping Beauty , and The Blue Bird . This feature may simply reflect the Catholic milieu in which most fairy tales were created , or at least recorded , and the accepted role of godparents as helpers from outside the family , but feminist Marina Warner suggests that they may be a form of wish fulfilment by female narrators . Non-christian traditions ( edit ) Santería ( edit ) In the Yoruba religion Santería , godparents must have completed their santo or their Ifá . A person gets his Madrina and Yubona ( co-godmother ) or his Padrino and Yubon ( co-godfather ) . A santero , aside from his co-godparents , may have an oluo ( babalawo , initiate of ifa ) who consults him with an ekuele ( divinating chain ) . Judaism ( edit ) Brit Mila -- the sandek holds the baby boy . There are two roles in the Jewish circumcision ceremony that are sometimes translated as godparent . The sandek holds the baby boy while he is circumcised . Among Orthodox Ashkenazi , the kvater ( or kvaterin if female ) is the person who takes the child from his mother and carries him into the room in which the circumcision is performed . Kvater is etymologically derived from the archaic German Gevatter ( `` godfather '' ) . Chinese traditions ( edit ) Some Chinese communities practise the custom of matching a child with a relative or family friend who becomes the godmother ( 乾 媽 ) or godfather ( 乾 爹 ) . This practice is largely non-religious in nature , but commonly done to strengthen ties or to fulfill the wish of a childless adult to have a `` son / daughter '' . In most circumstances , an auspicious day is selected during which a ceremony takes place , involving the godchild paying his / her respects to his new godfather / godmother in the presence of relatives or friends . Alternatively , as it is already common in Chinese kinship to use kinship terms among people that are not related ( e.g. addressing a respected coworker as `` brother '' or one 's father 's friend may be referred to as `` uncle '' ) , an older friend or family friend with a deep friendship and a sufficient age gap will also informally address the other as his godparent or godchild , a gesture often initiated by the older person .

It is located at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW in Washington , D.C. , and has been the residence of every U.S. president since John Adams in 1800 . The term White House is often used as a metonym for the president and his advisers , as in `` The White House announced that ... '' . The residence was designed by Irish - born architect James Hoban in the neoclassical style . Construction took place between 1792 and 1800 using Aquia Creek sandstone painted white . When Thomas Jefferson moved into the house in 1801 , he ( with architect Benjamin Henry Latrobe ) added low colonnades on each wing that concealed stables and storage . In 1814 , during the War of 1812 , the mansion was set ablaze by the British Army in the Burning of Washington , destroying the interior and charring much of the exterior . Reconstruction began almost immediately , and President James Monroe moved into the partially reconstructed Executive Residence in October 1817 . Exterior construction continued with the addition of the semi-circular South portico in 1824 and the North portico in 1829 . Because of crowding within the executive mansion itself , President Theodore Roosevelt had all work offices relocated to the newly constructed West Wing in 1901 . Eight years later in 1909 , President William Howard Taft expanded the West Wing and created the first Oval Office , which was eventually moved as the section was expanded . In the main mansion , the third - floor attic was converted to living quarters in 1927 by augmenting the existing hip roof with long shed dormers . A newly constructed East Wing was used as a reception area for social events ; Jefferson 's colonnades connected the new wings . East Wing alterations were completed in 1946 , creating additional office space . By 1948 , the house 's load - bearing exterior walls and internal wood beams were found to be close to failure . Under Harry S. Truman , the interior rooms were completely dismantled and a new internal load - bearing steel frame constructed inside the walls . Once this work was completed , the interior rooms were rebuilt . The modern - day White House complex includes the Executive Residence , West Wing , East Wing , the Eisenhower Executive Office Building -- the former State Department , which now houses offices for the President 's staff and the Vice President -- and Blair House , a guest residence . The Executive Residence is made up of six stories -- the Ground Floor , State Floor , Second Floor , and Third Floor , as well as a two - story basement . The property is a National Heritage Site owned by the National Park Service and is part of the President 's Park . In 2007 , it was ranked second on the American Institute of Architects list of `` America 's Favorite Architecture '' .

In May 1790 , New York began construction of Government House for his official residence , but he never occupied it . The national capital moved to Philadelphia in December 1790 . The July 1790 Residence Act named Philadelphia , Pennsylvania the temporary national capital for a 10 - year period while the Federal City was under construction . The City of Philadelphia rented Robert Morris 's city house at 190 High Street ( now 524 -- 30 Market Street ) for Washington 's presidential residence . The first president occupied the Market Street mansion from November 1790 to March 1797 , and altered it in ways that may have influenced the design of the White House . As part of a futile effort to have Philadelphia named the permanent national capital , Pennsylvania built a much grander presidential mansion several blocks away , but Washington declined to occupy it . President John Adams also occupied the Market Street mansion from March 1797 to May 1800 . On Saturday , November 1 , 1800 , he became the first president to occupy the White House . The President 's House in Philadelphia became a hotel and was demolished in 1832 , while the unused presidential mansion became home to the University of Pennsylvania .

Architectural competition Hoban 's Charleston County Courthouse , Charleston , South Carolina , 1790 -- 92 , was admired by Washington . A 1793 elevation by James Hoban . His 3 - story , 9 - bay original submission was altered into this 2 - story , 11 - bay design . Drawing of Andrea Palladio - Project for Francesco et Lodovico de Trissini - From the book : I quattro libri dell'architettura - Published in 1570 The North Portico of the White House compared to Leinster House The Château de Rastignac compared to the South Portico of the White House , ca . 1846 The President 's House was a major feature of Pierre ( Peter ) Charles L'Enfant's ' plan for the newly established federal city , Washington , D.C. ( see : L'Enfant Plan ) . The architect of the White House was chosen in a design competition which received nine proposals , including one submitted anonymously by Thomas Jefferson . President Washington visited Charleston , South Carolina in May 1791 on his `` Southern Tour '' , and saw the under - construction Charleston County Courthouse designed by Irish architect James Hoban . He is reputed to have met with Hoban then . The following year , he summoned the architect to Philadelphia and met with him in June 1792 . On July 16 , 1792 , the President met with the commissioners of the federal city to make his judgment in the architectural competition . His review is recorded as being brief , and he quickly selected Hoban 's submission . Washington was not entirely pleased with the original submission , however ; he found it too small , lacking ornament , and not monumental enough to house the nation 's president . On his recommendation , the house was changed from three stories to two , and was widened from a nine - bay facade to an 11 - bay facade . Hoban 's competition drawings do not survive . Design influences The building has classical inspiration sources , that could be found directly or indirectly in the Roman architect Vitruvius or in Andrea Palladio styles ; Palladio being an Italian architect of the Renaissance which had a considerable influence on the Western architecture ( Palladian architecture ) . The building Hoban designed is verifiably influenced by the upper floors of Leinster House , in Dublin , which later became the seat of the Oireachtas ( the Irish parliament ) . Several other Georgian - era Irish country houses have been suggested as sources of inspiration for the overall floor plan , details like the bow - fronted south front , and interior details like the former niches in the present Blue Room . These influences , though undocumented , are cited in the official White House guide , and in White House Historical Association publications . The first official White House guide , published in 1962 , suggested a link between Hoban 's design for the South Portico and Château de Rastignac , a neoclassical country house located in La Bachellerie in the Dordogne region of France and designed by Mathurin Salat . Construction on the French house was initially started before 1789 , interrupted by the French Revolution for twenty years and then finally built 1812 -- 1817 ( based on Salat 's pre-1789 design ) . The theoretical link between the two houses has been criticized because Hoban did not visit France . Supporters of a connection posit that Thomas Jefferson , during his tour of Bordeaux in 1789 , viewed Salat 's architectural drawings ( which were on - file at the College ) at the École Spéciale d'Architecture ( Bordeaux Architectural College ) . On his return to the U.S. he then shared the influence with Washington , Hoban , Monroe , and Benjamin Henry Latrobe . Construction Construction of the White House began with the laying of the cornerstone on October 13 , 1792 , although there was no formal ceremony . The main residence , as well as foundations of the house , were built largely by enslaved and free African - American laborers , as well as employed Europeans . Much of the other work on the house was performed by immigrants , many not yet with citizenship . The sandstone walls were erected by Scottish immigrants , employed by Hoban , as were the high - relief rose and garland decorations above the north entrance and the `` fish scale '' pattern beneath the pediments of the window hoods . The initial construction took place over a period of eight years , at a reported cost of $232,371.83 ( equal to $3,279,177 today ) . Although not yet completed , the White House was ready for occupancy circa November 1 , 1800 . Shortages , including material and labor , forced alterations to the earlier plan developed by French engineer Pierre Charles L'Enfant for a `` palace '' that was five times larger than the house that was eventually built . The finished structure contained only two main floors instead of the planned three , and a less costly brick served as a lining for the stone façades . When construction was finished , the porous sandstone walls were whitewashed with a mixture of lime , rice glue , casein , and lead , giving the house its familiar color and name . As it is a famed structure in America , several replicas of the White House have been constructed . Architectural description The north front is the principal façade of the White House and consists of three floors and eleven bays . The ground floor is hidden by a raised carriage ramp and parapet , thus the façade appears to be of two floors . The central three bays are behind a prostyle portico ( this was a later addition to the house , built circa 1830 ) serving , thanks to the carriage ramp , as a porte cochere . The windows of the four bays flanking the portico , at first - floor level , have alternating pointed and segmented pediments , while at second - floor level the pediments are flat . The principal entrance at the center of the portico is surmounted by a lunette fanlight . Above the entrance is a sculpted floral festoon . The roofline is hidden by a balustraded parapet . The mansion 's southern façade is a combination of the Palladian and neoclassical styles of architecture . It is of three floors , all visible . The ground floor is rusticated in the Palladian fashion . At the center of the façade is a neoclassical projecting bow of three bays . The bow is flanked by five bays , the windows of which , as on the north façade , have alternating segmented and pointed pediments at first - floor level . The bow has a ground floor double staircase leading to an Ionic colonnaded loggia ( with the Truman Balcony at second - floor level ) , known as the south portico . The more modern third floor is hidden by a balustraded parapet and plays no part in the composition of the façade . Naming conventions The building was originally variously referred to as the `` President 's Palace '' , `` Presidential Mansion '' , or `` President 's House '' . The earliest evidence of the public calling it the `` White House '' was recorded in 1811 . A myth emerged that during the rebuilding of the structure after the Burning of Washington , white paint was applied to mask the burn damage it had suffered , giving the building its namesake hue . The name `` Executive Mansion '' was used in official contexts until President Theodore Roosevelt established the formal name by having `` White House -- Washington '' engraved on the stationery in 1901 . The current letterhead wording and arrangement `` The White House '' with the word `` Washington '' centered beneath goes back to the administration of Franklin D. Roosevelt . Although the structure was not completed until some years after the presidency of George Washington , there is speculation that the name of the traditional residence of the President of the United States may have derived from Martha Washington 's home , White House Plantation in Virginia , where the nation 's first President had courted the First Lady in the mid-18th century . Evolution of the White House Early use , the 1814 fire , and rebuilding On Saturday , November 1 , 1800 , John Adams became the first president to take residence in the building . During Adams ' second day in the house , he wrote a letter to his wife Abigail , containing a prayer for the house . Adams wrote : I pray Heaven to bestow the best of blessings on this House , and all that shall hereafter inhabit it . May none but honest and wise men ever rule under this roof . Franklin D. Roosevelt had Adams 's blessing carved into the mantel in the State Dining Room . Adams lived in the house only briefly before Thomas Jefferson moved into the `` pleasant country residence '' in 1801 . Despite his complaints that the house was too big ( `` big enough for two emperors , one pope , and the grand lama in the bargain '' ) , Jefferson considered how the White House might be added to . With Benjamin Henry Latrobe , he helped lay out the design for the East and West Colonnades , small wings that help conceal the domestic operations of laundry , a stable and storage . Today , Jefferson 's colonnades link the residence with the East and West Wings . In 1814 , during the War of 1812 , the White House was set ablaze by British troops during the Burning of Washington , in retaliation for burning Upper Canada 's Parliament Buildings in the Battle of York ; much of Washington was affected by these fires as well . Only the exterior walls remained , and they had to be torn down and mostly reconstructed because of weakening from the fire and subsequent exposure to the elements , except for portions of the south wall . Of the numerous objects taken from the White House when it was ransacked by British troops , only two have been recovered . Employees and slaves rescued a painting of George Washington , and in 1939 , a Canadian man returned a jewelry box to President Franklin D. Roosevelt , claiming that his grandfather had taken it from Washington . Some observers allege that most of these spoils were lost when a convoy of British ships led by HMS Fantome sank en route to Halifax off Prospect during a storm on the night of November 24 , 1814 , even though Fantome had no involvement in that action . After the fire , President James Madison resided in The Octagon House from 1814 to 1815 , and then the Seven Buildings from 1815 to the end of his term . Meanwhile , both architect Benjamin Henry Latrobe and Hoban contributed to the design and oversight of the reconstruction , which lasted from 1815 until 1817 . The south portico was constructed in 1824 during the James Monroe administration ; the north portico was built six years later . Though Latrobe proposed similar porticos before the fire in 1814 , both porticos were built as designed by Hoban . An elliptical portico at Château de Rastignac in La Bachellerie , France with nearly identical curved stairs is speculated as the source of inspiration due to its similarity with the South Portico , although this matter is one of great debate . Italian artisans , brought to Washington to help in constructing the U.S. Capitol , carved the decorative stonework on both porticos . Contrary to speculation , the North Portico was not modeled on a similar portico on another Dublin building , the Viceregal Lodge ( now Áras an Uachtaráin , residence of the President of Ireland ) , for its portico postdates the White House porticos ' design . For the North Portico , a variation on the Ionic Order was devised incorporating a swag of roses between the volutes . This was done to link the new portico with the earlier carved roses above the entrance . The White House as it looked following the conflagration of August 24 , 1814 Jefferson and Latrobe 's West Wing Colonnade in this nineteenth - century engraved view , is now the James S. Brady Press Briefing Room . Principal story plan for the white house by Benjamin Henry Latrobe , 1807 . Earliest known photograph of the White House , taken c. 1846 by John Plumbe during the administration of James K. Polk . Overcrowding and building the West Wing Entrance Hall in 1882 , showing the new Tiffany glass screen By the time of the American Civil War , the White House had become overcrowded . The location of the White House was questioned , just north of a canal and swampy lands , which provided conditions ripe for malaria and other unhealthy conditions . Brigadier General Nathaniel Michler was tasked to propose solutions to address these concerns . He proposed abandoning the use of the White House as a residence and designed a new estate for the first family at Meridian Hill in Washington , D.C. , but Congress rejected the plan . Proposed additions to the White House , drawn by architect Frederick D. Owen ( 1901 ) . The White House North Lawn in the 1860s , during the Abraham Lincoln administration When Chester Arthur took office in 1881 , he ordered renovations to the White House to take place as soon as the recently widowed Lucretia Garfield moved out . Arthur inspected the work almost nightly and made several suggestions . Louis Comfort Tiffany was asked to send selected designers to assist . Over twenty wagonloads of furniture and household items were removed from the building and sold at a public auction . All that was saved were bust portraits of John Adams and Martin Van Buren . A proposal was made to build a new residence south of the White House , but it failed to gain support . In the fall of 1882 work was done on the main corridor , including tinting the walls pale olive and adding squares of gold leaf , and decorating the ceiling in gold and silver , and colorful traceries woven to spell `` USA '' . The Red Room was painted a dull Pomeranian red , and its ceiling was decorated with gold , silver , and copper stars and stripes of red , white , and blue . A fifty - foot jeweled Tiffany glass screen , supported by imitation marble columns , replaced the glass doors that separated the main corridor from the north vestibule . In 1891 , First Lady Caroline Harrison proposed major extensions to the White House , including a National Wing on the east for a historical art gallery , and a wing on the west for official functions . A plan was devised by Colonel Theodore A. Bingham , which reflected the Harrison proposal . These plans were ultimately rejected . However , in 1902 Theodore Roosevelt hired McKim , Mead & White to carry out expansions and renovations in a neoclassical style suited to the building 's architecture , removing the Tiffany screen and all Victorian additions . Charles McKim himself designed and managed the project , which gave more living space to the President 's large family by removing a staircase in the West Hall and moving executive office staff from the second floor of the residence into the new West Wing . President William Howard Taft enlisted the help of architect Nathan C. Wyeth to add additional space to the West Wing , which included the addition of the Oval Office . In 1925 , Congress enacted legislation allowing the White House to accept gifts of furniture and art for the first time . The West Wing was damaged by fire in 1929 , but rebuilt during the remaining years of the Herbert Hoover presidency . In the 1930s , a second story was added , as well as a larger basement for White House staff , and President Franklin Roosevelt had the Oval Office moved to its present location : adjacent to the Rose Garden . Truman reconstruction Main article : White House Reconstruction Truman reconstruction , 1949 -- 1952 , a steel structure is built within the exterior shell Decades of poor maintenance , the construction of a fourth story attic during the Coolidge administration , and the addition of a second - floor balcony over the south portico for Harry S. Truman took a great toll on the brick and sandstone structure built around a timber frame . By 1948 , the house was declared to be in imminent danger of collapse , forcing President Truman to commission a reconstruction and to live across the street at Blair House from 1949 to 1951 . The work , done by the firm of Philadelphia contractor John McShain , required the complete dismantling of the interior spaces , construction of a new load - bearing internal steel frame and the reconstruction of the original rooms within the new structure . The total cost of the renovations was about $5.7 million ( US $ 53 million in 2017 ) . Some modifications to the floor plan were made , the largest being the repositioning of the grand staircase to open into the Entrance Hall , rather than the Cross Hall . Central air conditioning was added , as well as two additional sub-basements providing space for workrooms , storage , and a bomb shelter . The Trumans moved back into the White House on March 27 , 1952 . While the house 's structure was kept intact by the Truman reconstruction , much of the new interior finishes were generic , and of little historic value . Much of the original plasterwork , some dating back to the 1814 -- 1816 rebuilding , was too damaged to reinstall , as was the original robust Beaux Arts paneling in the East Room . President Truman had the original timber frame sawed into paneling ; the walls of the Vermeil Room , Library , China Room , and Map Room on the ground floor of the main residence were paneled in wood from the timbers . Jacqueline Kennedy restoration The Red Room as designed by Stéphane Boudin during the administration of John F. Kennedy Jacqueline Kennedy , wife of President John F. Kennedy ( 1961 -- 63 ) , directed a very extensive and historic redecoration of the house . She enlisted the help of Henry Francis du Pont of the Winterthur Museum to assist in collecting artifacts for the mansion , many of which had once been housed there . Other antiques , fine paintings , and improvements of the Kennedy period were donated to the White House by wealthy philanthropists , including the Crowninshield family , Jane Engelhard , Jayne Wrightsman , and the Oppenheimer family . Stéphane Boudin of the House of Jansen , a Paris interior - design firm that had been recognized worldwide , was employed by Mrs. Kennedy to assist with the decoration . Different periods of the early republic and world history were selected as a theme for each room : the Federal style for the Green Room , French Empire for the Blue Room , American Empire for the Red Room , Louis XVI for the Yellow Oval Room , and Victorian for the president 's study , renamed the Treaty Room . Antique furniture was acquired , and decorative fabric and trim based on period documents was produced and installed . The Kennedy restoration resulted in a more authentic White House of grander stature , which recalled the French taste of Madison and Monroe . In the Diplomatic Reception Room , Mrs. Kennedy installed an antique `` Vue de l'Amérique Nord '' wall paper which Zuber & Cie had designed in 1834 . The wallpaper had hung previously on the walls of another mansion until 1961 when that house was demolished for a grocery store . Just before the demolition , the wallpaper was salvaged and sold to the White House . The first White House guidebook was produced under the direction of curator Lorraine Waxman Pearce with direct supervision from Mrs. Kennedy . Sale of the guidebook helped finance the restoration . Kennedy showed her restoration of the White House to the public in a televised tour of the house on Valentine 's Day in 1962 . The White House since the Kennedy restoration President Kennedy and Vice President Johnson strolling along the Ellipse , outside the South Portico Congress enacted legislation in September 1961 declaring the White House a museum . Furniture , fixtures , and decorative arts could now be declared either historic or of artistic interest by the President . This prevented them from being sold ( as many objects in the executive mansion had been in the past 150 years ) . When not in use or display at the White House , these items were to be turned over to the Smithsonian Institution for preservation , study , storage , or exhibition . The White House retains the right to have these items returned . Out of respect for the historic character of the White House , no substantive architectural changes have been made to the house since the Truman renovation . Since the Kennedy restoration , every presidential family has made some changes to the private quarters of the White House , but the Committee for the Preservation of the White House must approve any modifications to the State Rooms . Charged with maintaining the historical integrity of the White House , the congressionally authorized committee works with each First Family -- usually represented by the First Lady , the White House Curator , and the Chief Usher -- to implement the family 's proposals for altering the house . During the Nixon administration ( 1969 -- 74 ) , First Lady Pat Nixon refurbished the Green Room , Blue Room , and Red Room , working with Clement Conger , the curator appointed by President Richard Nixon . Mrs. Nixon 's efforts brought more than 600 artifacts to the house , the largest acquisition by any administration . Her husband created the modern press briefing room over Franklin Roosevelt 's old swimming pool . Nixon also added a single - lane bowling alley to the White House basement . Computers and the first laser printer were added during the Carter administration , and the use of computer technology was expanded during the Reagan administration . A Carter - era innovation , a set of solar water heating panels that were mounted on the roof of the White House , was removed during Reagan 's presidency . Redecorations were made to the private family quarters and maintenance was made to public areas during the Reagan years . The house was accredited as a museum in 1988 . In the 1990s , Bill and Hillary Clinton refurbished some rooms with the assistance of Arkansas decorator Kaki Hockersmith , including the Oval Office , the East Room , Blue Room , State Dining Room , Lincoln Bedroom , and Lincoln Sitting Room . During the administration of George W. Bush , First Lady Laura Bush refurbished the Lincoln Bedroom in a style contemporary with the Lincoln era ; the Green Room , Cabinet Room , and theater were also refurbished . The White House became one of the first wheelchair - accessible government buildings in Washington when modifications were made during the presidency of Franklin D. Roosevelt , who used a wheelchair because of his paralytic illness . In the 1990s , Hillary Clinton , at the suggestion of Visitors Office Director Melinda N. Bates , approved the addition of a ramp in the East Wing corridor . It allowed easy wheelchair access for the public tours and special events that enter through the secure entrance building on the east side . In 2003 , the Bush administration reinstalled solar thermal heaters . These units are used to heat water for landscape maintenance personnel and for the presidential pool and spa. 167 solar photovoltaic grid tied panels were installed at the same time on the roof of the maintenance facility . The changes were not publicized as a White House spokeswoman said the changes were an internal matter . The story was picked up by industry trade journals . In 2013 , President Barack Obama had a set of solar panels installed on the roof of the White House , making it the first time solar power would be used for the president 's living quarters . The president usually travels to and from the White House grounds via official motorcade or helicopter . The journey by helicopter was inaugurated in the 1950s , when President Dwight D. Eisenhower began traveling on Marine One to and from his official residence . Layout and amenities Today the group of buildings housing the presidency is known as the White House Complex . It includes the central Executive Residence flanked by the East Wing and West Wing . The Chief Usher coordinates day to day household operations . The White House includes : six stories and 55,000 ft ( 5,100 m ) of floor space , 132 rooms and 35 bathrooms , 412 doors , 147 windows , twenty - eight fireplaces , eight staircases , three elevators , five full - time chefs , a tennis court , a ( single - lane ) bowling alley ( officially called the Harry S. Truman Bowling Alley ) , a movie theater ( officially called the White House Family Theater ) , a jogging track , a swimming pool , and a putting green . It receives up to 30,000 visitors each week . Layout of entire site White House Complex West Wing Ground floor State floor Second floor ( residence ) Executive residence Main article : Executive Residence The original residence is in the center . Two colonnades -- one on the east and one on the west -- designed by Jefferson , now serve to connect the East and West Wings , added later . The Executive Residence houses the president 's dwelling , as well as rooms for ceremonies and official entertaining . The State Floor of the residence building includes the East Room , Green Room , Blue Room , Red Room , State Dining Room , Family Dining Room , Cross Hall , Entrance Hall , and Grand Staircase . The Ground Floor is made up of the Diplomatic Reception Room , Map Room , China Room , Vermeil Room , Library , the main kitchen , and other offices . The second floor family residence includes the Yellow Oval Room , East and West Sitting Halls , the White House Master Bedroom , President 's Dining Room , the Treaty Room , Lincoln Bedroom and Queens ' Bedroom , as well as two additional bedrooms , a smaller kitchen , and a private dressing room . The third floor consists of the White House Solarium , Game Room , Linen Room , a Diet Kitchen , and another sitting room ( previously used as President George W. Bush 's workout room ) . West Wing Main article : West Wing The West Wing houses the President 's office ( the Oval Office ) and offices of his senior staff , with room for about 50 employees . It also includes the Cabinet Room , where the president conducts business meetings and where the Cabinet meets , as well as the White House Situation Room , James S. Brady Press Briefing Room , and Roosevelt Room . In 2007 , work was completed on renovations of the press briefing room , adding fiber optic cables and LCD screens for the display of charts and graphs . The makeover took 11 months and cost $8 million , of which news outlets paid $2 million . In September 2010 , a two - year project began on the West Wing , creating a multistory underground structure ; this will be followed with additional renovation of the wing . The Oval Office , Roosevelt Room , and other portions of the West Wing were partially replicated on a sound stage and used as the setting for the popular television show The West Wing . East Wing Main article : East Wing The East Wing , which contains additional office space , was added to the White House in 1942 . Among its uses , the East Wing has intermittently housed the offices and staff of the First Lady , and the White House Social Office . Rosalynn Carter , in 1977 , was the first to place her personal office in the East Wing and to formally call it the `` Office of the First Lady '' . The East Wing was built during World War II in order to hide the construction of an underground bunker to be used in emergencies . The bunker has come to be known as the Presidential Emergency Operations Center . Grounds The White House and grounds cover just over 18 acres ( about 7.3 hectares ) . Before the construction of the North Portico , most public events were entered from the South Lawn , which was graded and planted by Thomas Jefferson . Jefferson also drafted a planting plan for the North Lawn that included large trees that would have mostly obscured the house from Pennsylvania Avenue . During the mid-to - late 19th century a series of ever larger greenhouses were built on the west side of the house , where the current West Wing is located . During this period , the North Lawn was planted with ornate carpet - style flowerbeds . The general layout of the White House grounds today is based on the 1935 design by Frederick Law Olmsted Jr. of the Olmsted Brothers firm , commissioned by President Franklin D. Roosevelt . During the Kennedy administration , the White House Rose Garden was redesigned by Rachel Lambert Mellon . The Rose Garden borders the West Colonnade . Bordering the East Colonnade is the Jacqueline Kennedy Garden , which was begun by Jacqueline Kennedy but completed after her husband 's assassination . On the weekend of June 23 , 2006 , a century - old American Elm ( Ulmus americana L . ) tree on the north side of the building , came down during one of the many storms amid intense flooding . Among the oldest trees on the grounds are several magnolias ( Magnolia grandiflora ) planted by Andrew Jackson . Michelle Obama planted the White House 's first organic garden and installed beehives on the South Lawn of the White House , which will supply organic produce and honey to the First Family and for state dinners and other official gatherings . The Cross Hall , connecting the State Dining Room and the East Room on the State Floor Marine One prepares for landing on the South Lawn where State Arrival Ceremonies for visiting heads of state take place .

President Thomas Jefferson held an open house for his second inaugural in 1805 , and many of the people at his swearing - in ceremony at the Capitol followed him home , where he greeted them in the Blue Room . Those open houses sometimes became rowdy : in 1829 , President Andrew Jackson had to leave for a hotel when roughly 20,000 citizens celebrated his inauguration inside the White House . His aides ultimately had to lure the mob outside with washtubs filled with a potent cocktail of orange juice and whiskey . Even so , the practice continued until 1885 , when newly elected Grover Cleveland arranged for a presidential review of the troops from a grandstand in front of the White House instead of the traditional open house . Jefferson also permitted public tours of his house , which have continued ever since , except during wartime , and began the tradition of annual receptions on New Year 's Day and on the Fourth of July . Those receptions ended in the early 1930s , although President Bill Clinton would briefly revive the New Year 's Day open house in his first term . The White House remained accessible in other ways ; President Abraham Lincoln complained that he was constantly beleaguered by job seekers waiting to ask him for political appointments or other favors , or eccentric dispensers of advice like `` General '' Daniel Pratt , as he began the business day . Lincoln put up with the annoyance rather than risk alienating some associate or friend of a powerful politician or opinion maker . Aviation incidents This section needs to be updated . Please update this article to reflect recent events or newly available information . ( April 2015 ) In February 1974 , a stolen army helicopter landed without authorization on the White House 's grounds . Twenty years later , in 1994 , a light plane crashed on the White House grounds , and the pilot died instantly . As a result of increased security regarding air traffic in the capital , the White House was evacuated in May 2005 before an unauthorized aircraft could approach the grounds . Closure of Pennsylvania Avenue On May 20 , 1995 , primarily as a response to the Oklahoma City bombing of April 19 , 1995 , the United States Secret Service closed off Pennsylvania Avenue to vehicular traffic in front of the White House from the eastern edge of Lafayette Park to 17th Street . Later , the closure was extended an additional block to the east to 15th Street , and East Executive Avenue , a small street between the White House and the Treasury Building . After September 11 , 2001 , this was made permanent in addition to closing E Street between the South Portico of the White House and the Ellipse . In response to the Boston Marathon bombing the road was closed to the public in its entirety for a period of two days . The Pennsylvania Avenue closing has been opposed by organized civic groups in Washington , D.C. They argue that the closing impedes traffic flow unnecessarily and is inconsistent with the well - conceived historic plan for the city . As for security considerations , they note that the White House is set much farther back from the street than numerous other sensitive federal buildings are . Prior to its inclusion within the fenced compound that now includes the Old Executive Office Building to the west and the Treasury Building to the east , this sidewalk served as a queuing area for the daily public tours of the White House . These tours were suspended in the wake of the September 11 attacks . In September 2003 , they resumed on a limited basis for groups making prior arrangements through their Congressional representatives or embassies in Washington for foreign nationals and submitting to background checks , but the White House remained closed to the public . White House tours were suspended for most of 2013 due to budget constraints after sequestration . The White House reopened to the public in November 2013 . Protection The White House Complex is protected by the United States Secret Service and the United States Park Police . NASAMS ( Norwegian Advanced Surface to Air Missile System ) were used to guard air space over Washington , D.C. during the 2005 presidential inauguration . The same NASAMS units have since been used to protect the president and all air space around the White House , which is strictly prohibited to aircraft . For security reasons , the section of Pennsylvania Avenue on the north side of the White House is closed to all vehicular traffic , except government officials . White House at night North front of the White House on the reverse ( back ) of the U.S. $20 bill .

These electors then in turn cast direct votes , known as electoral votes , for President and Vice President . The candidate who receives an absolute majority of electoral votes for President or Vice President ( currently , at least 270 out of a total of 538 ) is then elected to that office . If no candidate receives an absolute majority for President , the House of Representatives chooses the President ; if no one receives a majority for Vice President , then the Senate chooses the Vice President . The Electoral College and its procedure is established in the U.S. Constitution by Article II , Section 1 , Clauses 2 and 4 ; and the Twelfth Amendment ( which replaced Clause 3 after its ratification in 1804 ) . Under Clause 2 , each of the states casts as many electoral votes as the total number of its Senators and Representatives in Congress , while , per the Twenty - third Amendment ratified in 1961 , Washington , D.C. casts the same number of electoral votes as the least - represented state , which is three . Also under Clause 2 , the manner for choosing electors is determined by each state legislature , not directly by the federal government . Many state legislatures previously selected their electors directly , but over time all of them switched to using the popular vote to help determine electors , which persists today . Once chosen , electors generally cast their electoral votes for the candidate who won the plurality in their state , but at least 21 states do not have provisions that specifically address this behavior ; those who vote in opposition to the plurality are known as `` faithless '' or `` unpledged electors '' . In modern times , faithless and unpledged electors have not affected the ultimate outcome of an election , so the results can generally be determined based on the state - by - state popular vote . Presidential elections occur quadrennially with registered voters casting their ballots on Election Day , which since 1845 has been the first Tuesday after November 1 . This date coincides with the general elections of various other federal , state , and local races ; since local governments are responsible for managing elections , these races typically all appear on one ballot . The Electoral College electors then formally cast their electoral votes on the first Monday after December 12 at their respective state capitals . Congress then certify the results in early January , and the presidential term begins on Inauguration Day , which since the passage of the Twentieth Amendment has been set at January 20 . The nomination process , consisting of the primary elections and caucuses and the nominating conventions , was not specified in the Constitution , but was developed over time by the states and political parties . These primary elections are generally held between January and June before the general election in November , while the nominating conventions are held in the summer . Though not codified by law , political parties also follow an indirect election process , where voters in the 50 U.S. states , Washington , D.C. , and U.S. territories , cast ballots for a slate of delegates to a political party 's nominating convention , who then in turn elect their party 's presidential nominee . Each party may then choose a vice presidential running mate to join the ticket , which is either determined by choice of the nominee or by a second round of voting . Because of changes to national campaign finance laws since the 1970s regarding the disclosure of contributions for federal campaigns , presidential candidates from the major political parties usually declare their intentions to run as early as the spring of the previous calendar year before the election ( almost 18 months before Inauguration Day ) .

This was a result of a compromise between those constitutional framers who wanted the Congress to choose the president , and those who preferred a national popular vote . Each state is allocated a number of electors that is equal to the size of its delegation in both houses of Congress combined . With the ratification of the 23rd Amendment to the Constitution in 1961 , the District of Columbia is also granted a number of electors , equal to the number of those held by the least populous state . However , U.S. territories are not represented in the Electoral College . Constitutionally , the manner for choosing electors is determined within each state by its legislature . During the first presidential election in 1789 , only 6 of the 13 original states chose electors by any form of popular vote . Gradually throughout the years , the states began conducting popular elections to help choose their slate of electors , resulting in the overall , nationwide indirect election system that it is today . Under the original system established by Article Two , electors could cast two votes to two different candidates for president . The candidate with the highest number of votes ( provided it was a majority of the electoral votes ) became the president , and the second - place candidate became the vice president . This presented a problem during the presidential election of 1800 when Aaron Burr received the same number of electoral votes as Thomas Jefferson and challenged Jefferson 's election to the office . In the end , Jefferson was chosen as the president because of Alexander Hamilton 's influence in the House of Representatives . This added to the deep rivalry between Burr and Hamilton which resulted in their famous 1804 duel . In response to the 1800 election , the 12th Amendment was passed , requiring electors to cast two distinct votes : one for President and another for Vice President . While this solved the problem at hand , it ultimately had the effect of lowering the prestige of the Vice Presidency , as the office was no longer for the leading challenger for the Presidency . The separate ballots for President and Vice President became something of a moot issue later in the 19th century when it became the norm for popular elections to determine a state 's Electoral College delegation . Electors chosen this way are pledged to vote for a particular presidential and vice presidential candidate ( offered by the same political party ) . So , while the Constitution says that the President and Vice President are chosen separately , in practice they are chosen together . The 12th Amendment also established rules when no candidate wins a majority vote in the Electoral College . In the presidential election of 1824 , Andrew Jackson received a plurality , but not a majority , of electoral votes cast . The election was thrown to the House of Representatives , and John Quincy Adams was elected to the presidency . A deep rivalry resulted between Andrew Jackson and House Speaker Henry Clay , who had also been a candidate in the election . Since 1824 , aside from the occasional `` faithless elector , '' the popular vote determines the winner of a presidential election by determining the electoral vote , as each state or district 's popular vote determines its electoral college vote . Although the nationwide popular vote does not directly determine the winner of a presidential election , it does strongly correlate with who is the victor . In 52 of the 56 total elections held so far ( about 93 percent ) , the winner of the national popular vote has also carried the Electoral College vote . The winners of the nationwide popular vote and the Electoral College vote differ only in close elections . In highly competitive elections , candidates focus on turning out their vote in the contested swing states critical to winning an electoral college majority , so they do not try to maximize their popular vote by real or fraudulent vote increases in one - party areas . However , candidates can fail to get the most votes in the nationwide popular vote in a Presidential election and still win that election . In the 1824 election , Jackson won the popular vote , but no one received the majority of electoral votes . According to the 12th Amendment in the Constitution , the House of Representatives must choose the president out of the top 3 people in the election . Clay had come fourth , so he threw his support to Adams , who then won . Because Adams later named Clay his Secretary of State , Jackson 's supporters claimed that Adams gained the presidency by making a deal with Clay . Charges of a `` corrupt bargain '' followed Adams through his term . Comparison of the popular vote totals since 1900 . Republican Democrat All other candidates together Then in 1876 , 1888 , 2000 , and 2016 , the winner of electoral vote lost the popular vote outright . Numerous constitutional amendments have been submitted seeking to replace the Electoral College with a direct popular vote , but none has ever successfully passed both Houses of Congress . Another alternate proposal is the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact , an interstate compact whereby individual participating states agree to allocate their electors based on the winner of the national popular vote instead of just their respective statewide results . The presidential election day was established on a Tuesday in the month of November because of the factors involved ( weather , harvests and worship ) . When voters used to travel to the polls by horse , Tuesday was an ideal day because it allowed people to worship on Sunday , ride to their county seat on Monday , and vote on Tuesday -- all before market day , Wednesday . The month of November also fits nicely between harvest time and harsh winter weather , which could be especially bad to people traveling by horse and buggy . Until 1937 , presidents were not sworn in until March 4 because it took so long to count and report ballots , and because of the winner 's logistical issues of moving to the capital . With better technology and the 20th Amendment being passed , presidential inaugurations were moved to noon on January 20 -- allowing presidents to start their duties sooner . The Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 was enacted to increase disclosure of contributions for federal campaigns . Subsequent amendments to law require that candidates to a federal office must file a Statement of Candidacy with the Federal Election Commission before they can receive contributions aggregating in excess of $5,000 or make expenditures aggregating in excess of $5,000 . Thus , this began a trend of presidential candidates declaring their intentions to run as early as the Spring of the previous calendar year so they can start raising and spending the money needed for their nationwide campaign . The first president , George Washington , was elected as an independent . Since the election of his successor , John Adams , in 1796 , all winners of U.S. presidential elections have represented one of two major parties . Third parties have taken second place only twice , in 1860 and 1912 . The last time a third ( independent ) candidate achieved significant success ( although still finishing in third place ) was in 1992 , and the last time a third - party candidate received any electoral votes not from faithless electors was in 1968 . Procedure ( edit ) Eligibility requirements ( edit ) The hand - written copy of the natural - born - citizen clause as it appeared in 1787 Article Two of the United States Constitution stipulates that for a person to serve as President , the individual must be a natural - born citizen of the United States , at least 35 years old , and a resident of the United States for a period of no less than 14 years . A candidate may start running his or her campaign early before turning 35 years old or completing 14 years of residency , but must meet the age and residency requirements by Inauguration Day . The Twenty - second Amendment to the Constitution also sets a term limit : a President can not be elected to more than two terms . The U.S. Constitution also has two provisions that apply to all federal offices in general , not just the presidency . Article I , Section 3 , Clause 7 states that if the U.S. Congress convicts any officer on impeachment , they may also bar that person from holding any public office in the future . And Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment prohibits the election to any federal office of any person who had held any federal or state office and then engaged in insurrection , rebellion or treason ; this disqualification can be waived if such an individual gains the consent of two - thirds of both houses of Congress . In addition , the Twelfth Amendment establishes that the Vice-President must meet all of the qualifications of being a President . Although not a mandatory requirement , Federal campaign finance laws including the Federal Election Campaign Act state that a candidate who intends to receive contributions aggregating in excess of $5,000 or make expenditures aggregating in excess of $5,000 , among others , must first file a Statement of Candidacy with the Federal Election Commission . This has led presidential candidates , especially members from the two major political parties , to officially announce their intentions to run as early as the spring of the previous calendar year so they can start raising or spending the money needed for their nationwide campaign . Potential candidates usually form exploratory committees even earlier to determining the feasibility of them actually running . Nominating process ( edit ) Main articles : United States presidential primary and United States presidential nominating convention A 2008 Democratic caucus meeting in Iowa City , Iowa . The Iowa caucuses are traditionally the first major electoral event of presidential primaries and caucuses . Madison Square Garden in New York City , the site of the 1976 , 1980 , and 1992 Democratic National Conventions ; and the 2004 Republican National Convention . The floor of the 2008 Republican National Convention at the Xcel Energy Center in Saint Paul , Minnesota . The modern nominating process of U.S. presidential elections consists of two major parts : a series of presidential primary elections and caucuses held in each state , and the presidential nominating conventions held by each political party . This process was never included in the United States Constitution , and thus evolved over time by the political parties to clear the field of candidates . The primary elections are run by state and local governments , while the caucuses are organized directly by the political parties . Some states hold only primary elections , some hold only caucuses , and others use a combination of both . These primaries and caucuses are staggered generally between January and June before the federal election , with Iowa and New Hampshire traditionally holding the first presidential state caucus and primary , respectively . Like the general election , presidential caucuses or primaries are indirect elections . The major political parties officially vote for their presidential candidate at their respective nominating conventions , usually all held in the summer before the federal election . Depending on each state 's law and state 's political party rules , when voters cast ballots for a candidate in a presidential caucus or primary , they may be voting to award delegates `` bound '' to vote for a candidate at the presidential nominating conventions , or they may simply be expressing an opinion that the state party is not bound to follow in selecting delegates to their respective national convention . Unlike the general election , voters in the U.S. territories can also elect delegates to the national conventions . Furthermore , each political party can determine how many delegates to allocate to each state and territory . In 2012 for example , the Democratic and Republican party conventions each used two different formulas to allocate delegates . The Democrats - based theirs on two main factors : the proportion of votes each state gave to the Democratic candidate in the previous three presidential elections , and the number of electoral votes each state had in the Electoral College . In contrast , the Republicans assigned to each state 10 delegates , plus 3 delegates per congressional district . Both parties then gave fixed amounts of delegates to each territory , and finally bonus delegates to states and territories that passed certain criteria . Along with delegates chosen during primaries and caucuses , state and U.S. territory delegations to both the Democratic and Republican party conventions also include `` unpledged '' delegates that have a vote . For Republicans , they consist of the three top party officials from each state and territory . Democrats have a more expansive group of unpledged delegates called `` superdelegates '' , who are party leaders and elected officials . Each party 's presidential candidate also chooses a vice presidential nominee to run with him or her on the same ticket , and this choice is rubber - stamped by the convention . If no single candidate has secured a majority of delegates ( including both pledged and unpledged ) , then a `` brokered convention '' results . All pledged delegates are then `` released '' and are able to switch their allegiance to a different candidate . Thereafter , the nomination is decided through a process of alternating political horse trading , and additional rounds of re-votes . The conventions have historically been held inside convention centers , but since the late 20th century both the Democratic and Republican parties have favored sports arenas and domed stadiums to accommodate the increasing attendance . The popular vote on election Day ( edit ) A Texas voter about to mark a selection for president on a ballot , 2008 Election Day Under the United States Constitution , the manner of choosing electors for the Electoral College is determined by each state 's legislature . Although each state designates electors by popular vote , other methods are allowed . For instance , instead of having a popular vote , a number of states used to select presidential electors by a direct vote of the state legislature itself . However , federal law does specify that all electors must be selected on the same day , which is `` the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November , '' i.e. , a Tuesday no earlier than November 2 and no later than November 8 . Today , the states and the District of Columbia each conduct their own popular elections on Election Day to help determine their respective slate of electors . Thus , the presidential election is really an amalgamation of separate and simultaneous state elections instead of a single national election run by the federal government . Like any other election in the United States , the eligibility of an individual for voting is set out in the Constitution and regulated at state level . The Constitution states that suffrage can not be denied on grounds of race or color , sex or age for citizens eighteen years or older . Beyond these basic qualifications , it is the responsibility of state legislatures to regulate voter eligibility . Generally , voters are required to vote on a ballot where they select the candidate of their choice . The presidential ballot is a vote `` for the electors of a candidate '' meaning that the voter is not voting for the candidate , but endorsing a slate of electors pledged to vote for a specific presidential and vice presidential candidate . Many voting ballots allow a voter to `` blanket vote '' for all candidates in a particular political party or to select individual candidates on a line by line voting system . Which candidates appear on the voting ticket is determined through a legal process known as ballot access . Usually , the size of the candidate 's political party and the results of the major nomination conventions determine who is pre-listed on the presidential ballot . Thus , the presidential election ticket will not list every candidate running for President , but only those who have secured a major party nomination or whose size of their political party warrants having been formally listed . Laws are in effect to have other candidates pre-listed on a ticket , provided that enough voters have endorsed the candidate , usually through a signature list . The final way to be elected for president is to have one 's name written in at the time of election as a write - in candidate . This is used for candidates who did not fulfill the legal requirements to be pre-listed on the voting ticket . It is also used by voters to express a distaste for the listed candidates , by writing in an alternative candidate for president such as Mickey Mouse or comedian Stephen Colbert ( whose application was voted down by the South Carolina Democratic Party ) . In any event , a write - in candidate has never won an election for President of the United States . Because U.S. territories are not represented in the Electoral College , U.S. citizens in those areas do not vote in the general election for President . Guam has held straw polls for president since the 1980 election to draw attention to this fact . Electoral College ( edit ) Main article : Electoral College ( United States ) Electoral College map showing the results of the 2016 U.S. presidential election . Republican candidate Donald Trump won the popular vote in 30 states ( denoted in red ) to capture 305 electoral votes ( plus 1 electoral vote from Maine 's second congressional district ) . Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton won the popular vote in 20 states and Washington , D.C. ( denoted in blue ) to capture 232 electoral votes . Most state laws establish a winner - take - all system , wherein the ticket that wins a plurality of votes wins all of that state 's allocated electoral votes , and thus has their slate of electors chosen to vote in the Electoral College . Maine and Nebraska do not use this method , instead giving two electoral votes to the statewide winner and one electoral vote to the winner of each Congressional district . Each state 's winning slate of electors then meets at their respective state 's capital on the first Monday after the second Wednesday in December to cast their electoral votes on separate ballots for President and Vice President . Although Electoral College members can technically vote for anyone under the U.S. Constitution , 24 states have laws to punish faithless electors , those who do not cast their electoral votes for the person whom they have pledged to elect . In early January , the total Electoral College vote count is opened by the sitting Vice President , acting in his capacity as President of the Senate , and read aloud to a joint session of the incoming Congress , which was elected at the same time as the President . If no candidate receives a majority of the electoral vote ( at least 270 ) , the President is determined by the rules outlined by the 12th Amendment . Specifically , the selection of President would then be decided by a contingent election in a ballot of the House of Representatives . For the purposes of electing the President , each state has only one vote . A ballot of the Senate is held to choose the Vice President . In this ballot , each senator has one vote . The House of Representatives has chosen the victor of the presidential race only twice , in 1800 and 1824 ; the Senate has chosen the victor of the vice-presidential race only once , in 1836 . If the President is not chosen by Inauguration Day , the Vice President - elect acts as President . If neither are chosen by then , Congress by law determines who shall act as President , pursuant to the 20th Amendment . Unless there are faithless electors , disputes , or other controversies , the events in December and January mentioned above are largely a formality since the winner can be determined based on the state - by - state popular vote results . Between the general election and Inauguration Day , this apparent winner is referred to as the `` President - elect '' ( unless it is a sitting President that has won re-election ) . Election calendar ( edit ) The typical periods of the presidential election process are as follows , with the dates corresponding to the 2016 general election : Spring 2015 -- Candidates announce their intentions to run , and ( if necessary ) file their Statement of Candidacy with the Federal Election Commission August 2015 to March 2016 -- Primary and caucus debates February 1 to June 14 , 2016 -- Primaries and caucuses April to August , 2016 -- Nominating conventions ( including those of the minor third parties ) September and October , 2016 -- Presidential election debates November 8 , 2016 -- Election Day December 19 , 2016 -- Electors cast their electoral votes January 6 , 2017 -- Congress counts and certifies the electoral votes January 20 , 2017 -- Inauguration Day Trends ( edit ) Previous experience ( edit ) See also : List of Presidents of the United States by previous experience and List of Presidents of the United States by other offices held John Adams was the first of a record - high 26 presidents who had been lawyers Of the 45 different people who have served as President , only Donald Trump had never held a position in either government or the military prior to taking the office . The only previous experience that Zachary Taylor , Ulysses S. Grant , and Dwight D. Eisenhower had was in the military . Herbert Hoover previously served as the Secretary of Commerce . Everyone else served in elected public office before becoming president , such as being Vice President , a U.S. congressman , or a state or territorial governor . Fourteen Presidents have served as Vice President . However , only John Adams ( 1796 ) , Thomas Jefferson ( 1800 ) , Martin Van Buren ( 1836 ) , Richard Nixon ( 1968 ) and George H.W. Bush ( 1988 ) began their first term after winning an election . Among the remaining nine who began their first term as President according to the presidential line of succession after their respective predecessor died or resigned from office , Theodore Roosevelt , Calvin Coolidge , Harry S. Truman , and Lyndon B. Johnson were reelected . John Tyler , Millard Fillmore , Andrew Johnson , Chester A. Arthur , and Gerald Ford served as President but became president through succession and not election . Ford became President after Nixon 's resignation in 1974 through the processes of the Twenty - fifth Amendment and then lost the 1976 presidential election , making him the only President to not have been voted for by the Electoral College . Sixteen presidents had served in the Senate , including four of the five Presidents who served between 1945 and 1974 . However , only three were sitting U.S. Senators at the time they were elected president ( Warren G. Harding in 1920 , John F. Kennedy in 1960 , and Barack Obama in 2008 ) . Major - party candidate Senators Andrew Jackson ( 1824 ) , Lewis Cass ( 1848 ) , Stephen Douglas ( 1860 ) , Barry Goldwater ( 1964 ) , George McGovern ( 1972 ) , John Kerry ( 2004 ) , and John McCain ( 2008 ) all lost their elections . Only one sitting member of the House of Representatives has been elected president ( James A. Garfield in 1880 ) , although eighteen presidents have been former members of the House . Of the last seven presidents , four ( Jimmy Carter , Ronald Reagan , Bill Clinton and George W. Bush ) have been governors of a state . Geographically , these presidents were from either very large states ( Reagan from California , Bush from Texas ) or from a state south of the Mason -- Dixon line and east of Texas ( Carter from Georgia , Clinton from Arkansas ) . In all , sixteen presidents have been former governors , including seven who were in office as governor at the time of their election to the presidency . Since 1964 a state governor has been on a major - party ticket ( as either the nominee for President or Vice President ) . Major - party presidential candidates since 1964 who were also state governors but not elected to the office of president include Michael Dukakis ( Massachusetts , 1988 ) , and Mitt Romney ( Massachusetts , 2012 ) . Spiro Agnew ( Maryland ) is the only Vice President since 1964 to have been elected after having served as a state governor , while Nelson Rockefeller ( New York ) was appointed as Vice President in 1974 following Ford 's ascension to the presidency after Nixon 's resignation . Other such major - party vice presidential candidates include Sarah Palin ( Alaska , 2008 ) and Mike Pence ( Indiana , 2016 ) , and Tim Kaine ( Virginia , 2016 ) . For third - party tickets , Gary Johnson ( New Mexico ) running for the Libertarian Party in 2012 became the first Governor to be nominated by a third - party since George Wallace ( Alabama ) was the nominee for the American Independent Party in 1968 ( Johnson again was selected as the Libertarian Party 's 2016 nominee ) . And the most recent state governor to serve as a third - party running mate is William Weld ( Massachusetts ) for the Libertarian Party in 2016 . The 2016 Johnson - Weld ticket is the first of any party to feature two state governors since the 1948 election when Strom Thurmond ( South Carolina ) ran for the Dixiecrats with Fielding L. Wright ( Mississippi ) as his running mate . The most common job experience , occupation or profession of U.S. presidents has been lawyer ; 26 presidents had served as attorneys . Twenty - two presidents were also in the military . Eight presidents had served as Cabinet Secretaries , with five of the six Presidents who served between 1801 and 1841 having held the office of U.S. Secretary of State . After leaving office , one President , William Howard Taft , served as Chief Justice of the United States . Two Presidents , John Quincy Adams ( serving in the House ) and Andrew Johnson ( serving in the Senate ) , have served in Congress after being President . John Quincy Adams is the only former President to be elected to federal office after serving as president ; when Andrew Johnson served as a Senator , state legislatures appointed the Senators . Technology and media ( edit ) Play media Lyndon B. Johnson 's 1964 `` Daisy '' advertisement Advances in technology and media have also affected presidential campaigns . The invention of both radio and television have given way to the reliance of national political advertisements across those methods of communication . National advertisements such as Lyndon B. Johnson 's 1964 commercial `` Daisy '' , Ronald Reagan 's 1984 commercial `` Morning in America '' , and George H.W. Bush 's 1988 commercial `` Revolving Door '' became major factors in those respective elections . In 1992 , George H.W. Bush 's promise of `` Read my lips : no new taxes '' was extensively used in the commercials of Bill Clinton and Bush 's other opponents with significant effect during the campaign . Since the development of the internet in the mid-90s , Internet activism has also become an invaluable component of presidential campaigns , especially since 2000 . The internet was first used in the 1996 presidential elections , but primarily as a brochure for the candidate online . It was only used by a few candidates and there is no evidence of any major effect on the outcomes of that election cycle . In 2000 , both candidates ( George W. Bush and Al Gore ) created , maintained and updated their campaign website . But it was not until the 2004 presidential election cycle was the potential value of the internet seen . By the summer of 2003 , ten people competing in the 2004 presidential election had developed campaign websites . Howard Dean 's campaign website from that year was considered a model for all future campaign websites . His website played a significant role in his overall campaign strategy . It allowed his supporters to read about his campaign platform and provide feedback , donate , get involved with the campaign , and connect with other supporters . A Gallup poll from January 2004 revealed that 49 percent of Americans have used the internet to get information about candidates , and 28 percent said that they use the internet to get this information frequently . In 2008 , the internet became a grassroots and a voice of the people tool -- a way for the users to connect with each other and with the campaign , like Dean 's website had done in 2004 . All of the major candidates had a website and utilized social networking like Facebook and MySpace . The popularity of a candidate could be measured by the number of `` friends '' on these sites as well as on websites like Hitwise , which listed the number of hits all of the presidential candidate 's websites had each week . Internet channels such as YouTube were used by candidates to share speeches and ads for free . This also served as a forum for users to attack other candidates by uploading videos of gaffes . A study done by the Pew Internet & American Life Project in conjunction with Princeton Survey Research Associates in November 2010 shows that 54 percent of adults in the United States used the internet to get information about the 2010 midterm elections and about specific candidates . This represents 73 percent of adult internet users . The study also showed that 22 percent of adult internet users used social network sites or Twitter to get information about and discuss the elections and 26 percent of all adults used cell phones to learn about or participate in campaigns . E-campaigning as it has come to be called , is subject to very little regulation . On March 26 , 2006 , the Federal Election Commission voted unanimously to `` not regulate political communication on the Internet , including emails , blogs and the creating of Web sites '' This decision made only paid political ads placed on websites subject to campaign finance limitations . A comment was made about this decision by Roger Alan Stone of Advocacy Inc. which explains this loophole in the context of a political campaign : `` A wealthy individual could purchase all of the e-mail addresses for registered voters in a congressional district ... produce an Internet video ad , and e-mail it along with a link to the campaign contribution page ... Not only would this activity not count against any contribution limits or independent expenditure requirements ; it would never even need to be reported . '' Criticisms ( edit ) Main articles : Criticisms of the Electoral College , Criticisms of U.S. presidential primaries , and History of U.S. presidential nominating conventions 2012 Republican primaries and caucuses calendar . January 2012 ( 4 ) February 2012 ( 7 ) March 2012 ( 23 ) April 2012 ( 9 ) May 2012 ( 7 ) June 2012 ( 6 ) 2012 swing states , where the margin of victory was 8 percentage points or fewer . States won by Republican Mitt Romney by 0 -- 4 percentage points States won by Democrat Barack Obama by 0 -- 4 percentage points States won by Democrat Barack Obama by 4 -- 8 percentage points The presidential election process is controversial , with critics arguing that it is inherently undemocratic , and discourages voter participation and turnout in many areas of the country . Because of the staggered nature of the primary season , voters in Iowa , New Hampshire and other small states which traditionally hold their primaries and caucuses first in January usually have a major impact on the races . Campaign activity , media attention , and voter participation are usually higher in these states , as the candidates attempt to build momentum and generate a bandwagon effect in these early primaries . Conversely , voters in California and other large states which traditionally hold their primaries last in June usually end up having no say in who the presidential candidates will be . The races are usually over by then , and thus the campaigns , the media , and voters have little incentive to participate in these late primaries . As a result , more states vie for earlier primaries to claim a greater influence in the process . However , compressing the primary calendar in this way limits the ability of lesser - known candidates to effectively corral resources and raise their visibility among voters , especially when competing with better - known candidates who have more financial resources and the institutional backing of their party 's establishment . Primary and caucus reform proposals include a National Primary held on a single day ; or the Interregional Primary Plan , where states would be grouped into six regions , and each of the regions would rotate every election on who would hold their primaries first . With the primary races usually over before June , the political conventions have mostly become scripted , ceremonial affairs . As the drama has left the conventions , and complaints grown that they were scripted and dull pep rallies , public interest and viewership has fallen off . After having offered gavel - to - gavel coverage of the major party conventions in the mid-20th century , the Big Three television networks now only devote approximately three hours of coverage ( one hour per night ) . Critics also argue that the Electoral College is archaic and inherently undemocratic . With all states , except Maine and Nebraska , using a winner - take - all system , both the Democratic and the Republican candidates are almost certain to win all the electoral votes from those states whose residents predominantly vote for the Democratic Party or the Republican Party , respectively . This encourages presidential candidates to focus exponentially more time , money , and energy campaigning in a few so - called `` swing states '' , states in which no single candidate or party has overwhelming support . Such swing states like Ohio are inundated with campaign visits , saturation television advertising , get - out - the - vote efforts by party organizers , and debates . Meanwhile , candidates and political parties have no incentive to mount nationwide campaign efforts , or work to increase voter turnout , in predominately Democratic Party `` safe states '' like California or predominately Republican Party `` safe states '' like Texas . In practice , the winner - take - all system also both reinforces the country 's two - party system and decreases the importance of third and minor political parties . Furthermore , a candidate can win the electoral vote without securing the greatest amount of the national popular vote , such as during the 1824 , 1876 , 1888 , 2000 and 2016 elections . In theory , it is possible to secure the necessary 270 electoral votes from just the top 11 populous states and then ignore the rest of the country . Proposed changes to the election process ( edit ) In 1844 , Representative Samuel F. Vinton of Ohio proposed an amendment to the constitution that would replace the electoral college system with a lot system . The Joint Resolution called for each state to elect , by a simple majority , a presidential candidate of said state . Each state would notify Congress of the presidential election results . Congress would then inscribe the name of every state on uniform balls , equal to the number of said state 's members of Congress , and deposit into a box . In a joint session of Congress , a ball would be drawn , and the elected candidate of the state of which is written on the drawn ball would be named President . A second ball would immediately be drawn after , and that state 's candidate would be named Vice-President . The resolution did not pass the House . Representative Vinton proposed an identical amendment in 1846 . Again , it was unsuccessful . The driving force behind the introduction of the resolution is unclear , as there is no recorded debate for either proposal . Other constitutional amendments , such as the Every Vote Counts Amendment , have been proposed seeking to replace the Electoral College with a direct popular vote , which proponents argue would increase turnout and participation . Other proposed reforms include the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact , an interstate compact without Congressional authorization , whereby individual participating states agree to allocate their electors based on the winner of the national popular vote , instead of voting their respective statewide results . Another proposal is for every state to simply adopt the District system used by Maine and Nebraska : give two electoral votes to the statewide winner and one electoral vote to the winner of each Congressional district . The Automatic Plan would replace the Electors with an automatic tallying of votes to eliminate the faithless elector affecting the outcome of the election . The Proportional Plan , often compared to the District Plan , would distribute electoral votes in each state in proportion to the popular vote , introducing third party effects in election outcomes . The House Plan would require a constitutional amendment to allocate electors based on the House apportionment alone to lessen small state advantage . Direct election plans and bonus plans have in common a higher valuation on the popular vote for president .

Prior to 2004 , voter turnout in presidential elections had been decreasing while voter registration , measured in terms of voting age population ( VAP ) by the U.S. Census , has been increasing . The VAP figure , however , includes persons ineligible to vote -- mainly non-citizens and ineligible felons -- and excludes overseas eligible voters . Opinion is mixed on whether this decline was due to voter apathy. or an increase in ineligible voters on the rolls . The difference between these two measures are illustrated by analysis of turnout in the 2004 and 2008 elections . Voter turnout from the 2004 and 2008 election was `` not statistically different , '' based on the voting age population used by a November 2008 U.S. Census survey of 50,000 households . If expressed in terms of vote eligible population ( VEP ) , the 2008 national turnout rate was 61.7 % from 131.3 million ballots cast for president , an increase of over 1.6 percentage points over the 60.1 % turnout rate of 2004 , and the highest since 1968 . Financial disclosures ( edit ) Prior to 1967 , many presidential candidates disclosed assets , stock holdings , and other information which might affect the public trust . In that year , Republican candidate George W. Romney went a step further and released his tax returns for the previous twelve years . Since then , many presidential candidates -- including all major - party nominees from 1980 to 2012 -- have released some of their returns , although few of the major party nominees have equaled or exceeded George Romney 's twelve . The Tax History Project -- a project directed by Joseph J. Thorndike and established of the nonprofit Tax Analysts group -- has compiled the publicly released tax returns of presidents and presidential candidates ( including primary candidates ) . In 2016 , Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump broke with tradition , becoming the only major - party candidate since Gerald Ford in 1976 to not make any of his full tax returns public . Trump gave as a reason that he was being audited by the IRS . However , no law or precedent prevents a person from releasing their tax returns while under audit , and in fact President Richard M. Nixon released his tax returns while being audited . Presidential coattails ( edit ) Main article : Coattail effect Presidential elections are held on the same date as those for all the seats in the United States House of Representatives , the full terms for 33 or 34 of the 100 seats in the United States Senate , the governorships in several U.S. states , and many state and local elections . Presidential candidates tend to bring out supporters who then vote for their party 's candidates for those other offices . These other candidates are said to ride on the presidential candidates ' coattails . Voter turnout is also generally higher during presidential election years than either midterm election years or odd - numbered election years .

April Engine Unreal Engine 4 Platform ( s ) Microsoft Windows PlayStation 4 Xbox One Release Microsoft Windows WW : June 14 , 2016 PlayStation 4 & Xbox One NA : June 20 , 2017 AU : June 22 , 2017 EU : June 23 , 2017 Genre ( s ) Survival horror Mode ( s ) Multiplayer Dead by Daylight is an asymmetric survival horror online multiplayer video game developed by Behaviour Interactive and published by Starbreeze Studios . Dead by Daylight was released for the Microsoft Windows operating system in June 2016 , and released for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One home consoles in June 2017 . The game is ( 4v1 ) where one player takes on the role of the savage Killer , and the other four players play as Survivors , trying to escape the Killer and avoid being caught , tortured , and killed . Contents 1 Gameplay 1.1 Survivors 1.2 Killers 1.3 Objectives 1.4 Bloodweb 2 Setting 2.1 Locales 2.2 Buildings 3 Plot 4 Reception 5 See also 6 References 7 External links Gameplay ( edit ) The player repairing a generator with other survivors A group of up to four survivors must elude one killer . The survivor 's perspectives are third - person , while the killer 's perspective is first - person . Survivors ( edit ) Players assume the role of one of the 13 survivors , Dwight Fairfield , Meg Thomas , Claudette Morel , Jake Park , Nea Karlsson , Laurie Strode , William ' Bill ' Overbeck , Ace Visconti , Feng Min , David King , Quentin Smith , David Tapp or Kate Denson . More survivors can be obtained by either purchasing DLC , or buying them from the item shop , which update 2.0 will introduce . The goal of the survivors is to escape the enclosed area , which can be done in one of two ways : either by repairing a certain number of disabled generators ( usually , the number of generators is one greater than the number of survivors playing ) to provide power to switches which open large , metal doors leading out of the area ; or by escaping through the black lock , a hatch . The hatch opens when the number of repaired generators is one greater than the number of survivors that are still alive . In the latter case , the survivors will need a key to open the hatch . The hatch will appear at one of several predetermined locations . The survivor 's movement options consist of sprinting , walking , crouch - walking , or crawling . They must elude the killer by using the darkness ; crouching behind objects ; and hiding in buildings , foliage , or inside lockers . The survivors have the option to utilize up to four perks per match that affect how they play each game . Each of the survivors has a set of three unique - to - them perks that are only available to that survivor until the ability to teach them to other survivors is unlocked . These perks can be unlocked and upgraded in the Bloodweb using Bloodpoints and each Bloodweb can only hold up to two perks . These perks can range from giving a burst of speed when running from the killer , to being able to self - heal without a first aid kit , to unlocking the ability to sabotage meat hooks without a toolbox . There are also a multitude of ' universal ' perks that are available to unlock by any survivor . In dealing with the killer , survivors can also make use of a handful of items and traps in the area -- searching chests inside buildings will sometimes yield first - aid kits ( which allow the survivors to heal themselves rather than wait for a teammate ) , flashlights ( which can be used to temporarily blind the killer ) , toolboxes ( which can be used both to repair generators faster and to disable the sacrificial meat hooks ) , broken key ( does a variety of things depending on its addons ) , maps ( which locate all the generators or more depending on its rarity and addons ) , dull key ( which can be used to open the hatch whenever it 's found ) , and skeleton key ( which does a variety of things depending on its addons and can be used to open the hatch ) . One trap that survivors can use is a massive wooden pallet , which are placed upright , and can be pulled down when a survivor runs past them -- if the killer is right behind them , the pallet will stun the killer for a brief period of time . The survivors can vault over fallen pallets , while the killer has to destroy them or go around . They can also climb through windows . The killer can go through windows too , but does it significantly slower . Other technical advantages that survivors have include the ability to see the aura of downed and hooked teammates -- thus easily drawing them to their location for a rescue -- and can similarly see the locations of newly repaired generators and the exit doors for a short period of time once all necessary generators are repaired . When the killer is near , the survivors will hear a heartbeat , and eventually tense music , both of which increase in intensity with proximity to the killer . They can also see a red light ( called the `` red stain '' ) emanating from the killer 's eyes , which shows his / her approximate field of view . Killers ( edit ) As the killer , players assume the role of either the Trapper , the Wraith , the Hillbilly , the Nurse , the Shape , the Hag , the Doctor , the Huntress , the Cannibal , the Nightmare , the Pig or the Clown . The killer can not crouch ( unless playing as the Pig ) or run , but simply walks at a very fast pace which is slightly faster than the pace of a sprinting survivor . When hunting the survivors , the killer must capture them by either striking them twice with his / her weapon ( the first hit reduces the survivor to a limp and pushes them a short distance ahead of the killer , while the second hit drops them to crawling on the ground ) , or can grab them in one move by either catching them inside lockers , while attempting to vault over pallets or through windows , while repairing a generator , trying to save a fellow survivor on a hook or attempting to escape through a trap door . Some killers have a secondary attack that reduces a survivor directly to the crawling state . The killer can initially mainly only kill the survivors by throwing them on one of the many meat hooks in the area and waiting for the claws of the ' Entity ' to eventually finish off the survivor , carrying their soul into the sky . After a player has earned enough experience points as the killer , however , certain single - use items called ' Mori 's can be unlocked that include the ability to finish off survivors instantly with their weapon , rather than the lengthy process of taking them to the meat hooks . The killer can also kill survivors by leaving them on the ground and waiting for them to bleed to death , or , in the case of the Pig , the survivors can also be killed by the Reverse Bear Traps she places on their heads . The first time a survivor is hooked , they enter the first phase . In this phase only , the player can try for a low ( 4 % ) chance of escaping the hook at the cost of accelerating their death upon failure to escape based on their ' hook health ' ( at full , granting up to four chances ) . Players can also be rescued by fellow survivors . If the player escapes or is saved and is hooked a second time , they will enter the struggle state , in which the player has to resist the entity trying to stab him / her by pressing the spacebar continuously until saved by an ally or killed by the ' Entity ' . If the player is saved during the struggle state and is hooked a third time , they will die instantly with no opportunity of survival . The killer , despite walking at a fast pace , is slower in most other movements : After striking a player , the killer will slow their movement to wipe the blood off their weapon . The killer is also slower in climbing through windows , and can not leap over the pallets survivors can lay into their path , but can spend a lengthy amount of time destroying the barricades . The killer also has an aura reading ability similar to the survivors , only for the killer it can be used to see the locations of every single generator , hex totem and meat hook on the map . A new mechanic was also added in update 1.5. 0 which introduced bloodlust . Twelve seconds into a chase , the killer gets a 0.2 m / s boost ; 24 seconds into a chase gives the killer a 0.6 m / s boost ; and finally , if a chase lasts for 32 seconds , the killer gets a 1.2 m / s boost . These effects only last until a chase ends in which the effects go down 10 % every second spent not chasing a survivor , a pallet is broken ( this lowers bloodlust down 1 level ) , and when a survivor is hit ( this removes bloodlust completely ) . This was added to prevent a time wasting mechanic known as `` pallet looping '' , which is when a survivor runs around pallets for an extended period of time so the rest of the team can complete generators , and instead encourages the survivor to break line of sight and completely escape from the killer . Objectives ( edit ) Interacting with most objects and actions in the game causes random Skill Checks to trigger . When a skill check triggers , a needle appears within a circle on - screen and quickly spins around , the player must hit either the space bar or the left mouse button when the needle is within a certain randomly chosen section of the circle before the needle passes it . Failing a skill check has multiple consequences based on the action being taken . Repairing each generator takes a lengthy period of time and makes a rather small mechanical noise during the process . Failing a repair skill check will cause an explosion that will set the progress of the generator repair back and make a loud noise alerting the killer where the player is and what they are up to . The killer has also been granted the ability to damage generators at a very slow rate for 90 seconds . This process can be stopped simply by survivors fixing the generator for a second . If nothing is done for 90 seconds , all of the generator 's progress is lost , putting survivors in a disadvantage for waiting too long . Sabotaging a hook takes a significantly shorter amount of time than repairing a generator but is considerably louder . To sabotage a hook , survivors must be equipped with a ' tool kit ' or have the Saboteur perk active . Skill checks are more common during this action than when repairing a generator . Failing a sabotage skill check makes a loud banging sound , also setting back progress and alerting the killer . Healing yourself or your allied survivors can take drastically different lengths of time depending on multiple factors such as if they have a first aid kit , certain perks active , killer debuffs and whether the player is healing themselves or an ally . Skill checks are as common as when repairing but have a slightly less severe consequence when failed . Failing a healing skill check still reduces the progress of the action but the wail made by the survivor being healed is quieter than the other explosions and bangs , but still alerts the killer of your location within a certain range . If a survivor is caught by the killer , they are picked up and usually carried to the nearest meat hook . During this time they can attempt to wiggle out of the killer 's grasp before they reach the hook , and attempt to run away . If the killer succeeds in impaling a survivor on one of the many meat hooks in the area , a teammate can rescue the impaled survivor or , more rarely , the impaled survivor ( with a 4 % chance ) can pull themselves off the hook ( although attempting this is likely to backfire and injure the survivor further , drawing them closer to death ) . Once all generators are repaired , a survivor must find a switch next to one of two the possible exit doors and hold it for 10 seconds in order to open the door . The game only ends when all survivors have either escaped or have been killed -- thus , while some survivors may escape and finish early , those still inside must keep playing . Players who have escaped or died have the ability to observe the remaining players through the game 's conclusion , or return to the menu and join a new game . If only one survivor remains then repairing generators can become nearly impossible . An alternative escape method would be to use the `` Black Lock '' which is a hatch on the ground that spawns in a random area after the number of generators repaired equals one more than there are survivors left alive in the game ( i.e. 3 generators repaired with only 2 survivors still living ) . The hatch spawns closed but when only one survivor remains then it will open automatically . While closed it can be opened if one survivor has a `` Dull Key '' or a `` Skeleton Key '' and will remain open for 30 seconds , allowing any remaining survivors to hop in and escape . Bloodweb ( edit ) Both survivors and killers are able to unlock items , perks , and offerings through the Bloodweb . Every action performed in a match gives the player a number of Bloodpoints , and the sum are added to the player 's total at the end of the match . Each level of the Bloodweb is procedurally generated , and gets larger as the character gains levels . The rewards are connected to each other in a radial tree , and players must purchase rewards along the progression path to gain access to others . Once every reward on the tree has been purchased , the Bloodweb will generate a new level for the player to progress to , increasing that character 's level . Once the character reaches level 50 they will be given the option to prestige . While given the option , they will still be able to buy things from the blood web but will not increase their level . Once prestiged , characters will reset their level , items , offerings , and addons in exchange for a better chance for rarer items in the bloodweb and a bloody coat ( prestige one ) , bloody trousers or weapon for killer ( prestige two ) , and a bloody face ( prestige three ) . These effects are irreversible and can not be undone . The Bloodweb may contain items , add - ons for items that increase their efficiency , offerings that can be spent at the start of the round to influence the match 's conditions , and perks that make the character more powerful . Offerings and add - ons may only be used in one match , whereas items can be re-used until the player dies or loses them , and perks are permanent . Items can also be acquired from chests on the map , but this does not affect the character 's Bloodweb . Since a killer 's special ability is tied to their item and killers are invulnerable , their items are permanent and can not be changed . Setting ( edit ) Locales ( edit ) The game takes place across ten locales which are based on the places the killers became murderers : The MacMillan Estate ( Trapper ) , Autohaven Wreckers ( Wraith ) , Coldwind Farm ( Hillbilly ) , Crotus Prenn Asylum ( Nurse , Clown ) , Haddonfield ( Shape ) , Backwater Swamp ( Hag ) , Léry 's Memorial Institute ( Doctor ) , the Red Forest ( Huntress ) , Springwood / Badham Preschool ( Nightmare ) and Gideon Meat Plant ( Pig ) . Over time , the evilness of their actions accumulated there until it attracted the attention of the Entity , an unknown force of darkness from a place with no name . Most locales are split into multiple maps with similar features but small variations . Buildings ( edit ) Every locale and map features a map - specific building or landmark that remains in the same place in the map every game . Every map also features a building known as `` The Shack '' which is the same throughout all maps and appears a different one of a few predetermined locations in the map , with the exception of the two indoor maps , Léry 's Memorial Institute and Gideon Meat Plant . Every new game , a room known as the `` Basement '' is placed under either the map - specific building or the shack . The Basement is a special room consisting of 1 item chest for the survivors to scavenge in , and 4 cabinets for them to hide in . It 's also home to a special 4 - pointed hook that can not be destroyed or tampered with in any way by survivors . The basement only has one way in and one way out , making it a very secure place for killers to bring their victims without fear of other survivors saving them . Because of this danger , survivors are awarded a small number of points for even venturing into the basement . Plot ( edit ) The Entity , a supernatural being hailing from the ancient blood web , is awakened from its slumber whenever it is summoned by actions of great violence and malice . The killers , exclusively serial murderers , are pulled out of reality by it and convinced to do its bidding . In order to maintain its existence , the Entity requires sacrifices , and demands that they hunt and kill the survivors so it can feed off their hope and steal a piece of their soul upon death . Then they are brought back to life to repeat the trial , endlessly attempting to escape . The survivors are pulled into the Entity 's constructed world when they wander too close to the places the killers were taken from , disappearing from the real world without a trace . They end up at a lonely campfire , where they rest between trials , until a killer pursues them again . Each trial takes place in a series of realms constructed by the Entity of areas from where the survivors were taken . The survivors ' only hope of escape is to complete a series of generators scattered throughout each realm , and continue to open a large gate to escape . Escaping from the grounds always takes the survivors back to the campfire , and offerings can be created to be burnt at it and appeal for the Entity 's favour . Since the Entity feeds off the hope of the survivors to escape , it helps them just as much as the killers , acting as an impartial observer of the hunt , stepping in only to claim those hung on its hooks .

Ready Player One - Wikipedia Ready Player One Jump to : navigation , search This article is about the novel by Ernest Cline . For the film based on the novel , see Ready Player One ( film ) . Ready Player One <Td_colspan="2"> First edition cover Author Ernest Cline Country United States Language English Genre LitRPG , Science fiction , dystopian Publisher Random House Publication date August 16 , 2011 Media type Print ( hardcover and paperback ) , e-book , audiobook Pages 385 ISBN 978 - 0307887436 Ready Player One is a 2011 science fiction novel , and the debut novel of American author Ernest Cline . The story , set in a dystopian 2040s , follows protagonist Wade Watts on his search for an Easter egg in a worldwide virtual reality game , the discovery of which will lead him to inherit the game creator 's fortune . Cline sold the rights to publish the novel in June 2010 , in a bidding war to the Crown Publishing Group ( a division of Random House ) . The book was published on August 16 , 2011 . An audiobook was released the same day ; it was narrated by Wil Wheaton , who was mentioned briefly in one of the chapters . In 2012 , the book received an Alex Award from the Young Adult Library Services Association division of the American Library Association and won the 2012 Prometheus Award . A film adaptation , screenwritten by Cline and Zak Penn and directed by Steven Spielberg , was released on March 29 , 2018 .

To escape the decline their world is facing , people turn to the OASIS , a virtual reality simulator accessible by players using visors and haptic technology such as gloves . It functions both as an MMORPG and as a virtual society , with its currency being the most stable in the real world . It was created by James Halliday who , when he died , had announced in his will to the public that he had left an Easter egg inside OASIS , and the first person to find it would inherit his entire fortune and the corporation . The story follows the adventures of Wade Watts , starting about five years after the announcement , when he discovers one of the three keys pointing to the treasure . Plot ( edit ) Teenager Wade Watts lives with his aunt in Oklahoma City in the `` stacks '' , a poverty - stricken district constructed of trailer homes piled on top of each other . He spends his spare time as a `` gunter '' ( `` egg hunter '' ) , logging on to the OASIS as an avatar under the moniker Parzival , reading Halliday 's journal Anorak 's Almanac , and researching details of the 1980s pop culture , mainly classic video games and movies , that Halliday loved . One day , he realizes that the first key is located on the same virtual world as his own online high school , in a re-creation of the Dungeons & Dragons module Tomb of Horrors . He meets Art3mis , a famous female gunter and blogger who has been exploring the place , and advances further than she does when he defeats the AI Acererak at the video game Joust . He is awarded the Copper Key , and Parzival appears on the `` Scoreboard '' , attracting the world 's attention . Parzival completes the gate 's puzzles by playing through the Dungeons of Daggorath video game and then role - playing Matthew Broderick 's character in the film WarGames . Art3mis clears the gate shortly afterwards , as does Wade 's friend Aech . Wade 's fame enables him to make a living by endorsing virtual products . It also brings him to the attention of Nolan Sorrento , head of operations at Innovative Online Industries ( IOI ) , a multinational corporation bent on a well - funded effort to find the Easter Egg in order to take control of the OASIS and monetize it . When Wade refuses to join IOI , Sorrento attempts to kill him by blowing up the stacks where Wade lives , disguising the explosion as a meth lab accident . Wade escapes and moves to Columbus , Ohio , where he lies low , assuming the pseudonym Bryce Lynch and living in an anonymous apartment designed for hardcore OASIS users . He considers an alliance with Aech , Art3mis , and Daito and Shoto , two Japanese gunters who have also earned the Copper Key . Instead , he and Art3mis begin a wary friendship , but when he asks her out , Art3mis declines . IOI operatives , called Sixers , attempt to assassinate Wade and Art3mis at the birthday party of OASIS co-founder Ogden Morrow . They are stopped by Morrow , who has special privileges and powers within the OASIS . Five months pass . Neither Wade nor anyone else has found the next token , the Jade Key . When Art3mis finds the Jade Key , Parzival scrambles to planet Archaide , where he plays a perfect game of Pac - Man , receiving only a quarter as a prize . Aech provides a hint leading him to the planet Frobozz where he solves the text adventure game Zork . Sorrento , who had tracked Art3mis and Aech using a premium locator artifact , establishes a base there to farm their company 's avatars with keys , and unlocks the second Gate and acquires the Jade Key . Shoto tells Parzival that the Sixers infiltrated Daito 's real - life apartment and threw him out of the building , killing him . Parzival unlocks the Jade Gate , a Voight - Kampff machine in the Blade Runner universe , and completes the arcade game Black Tiger as a character from the first - person shooter perspective . Using his knowledge of Rush , he acquires the Crystal Key , and after playing `` Discovery '' , the third movement from the title track of their album `` 2112 '' , finds a clue regarding the conditions to unlock the final gate . As he messages Art3mis , Aech , and Shoto with his solution , Sorrento ends their covert attempts to clear the third gate , Castle Anorak , and places a force field around it . Wade manipulates his assumed identity in order to be arrested and placed in indentured servitude in IOI 's tech support department . While inside IOI , he uses black market passwords and security exploits to hack into IOI 's intranet : he acquires a wealth of information , including footage of Daito 's murder . The information also includes the attempt on his own life , as well as plans to kill Shoto and Art3mis in real life . After escaping the corporation , he shares his information with his friends and publicizes a gathering of avatars to storm the castle . They are interrupted by Ogden Morrow , who offers them a safe haven at his home in Oregon . Wade meets the real - life Aech and Ogden , but not Art3mis and Shoto , who are already hooked into Ogden 's immersion pods . The day of the battle , Wade uses his planted hack to bring down the barricade , and a massive fight among avatars ensues . After Parzival uses the giant robot Leopardon to fight against Sorrento 's Mechagodzilla Kiryu , Parzival and friends unlock the gate , at which point the Sixers use an artifact called the Cataclyst to destroy the castle and all avatars over a large area . Parzival survives because having the Pac - Man quarter granted him an extra life . As he enters the Crystal Gate , he announces that if he wins he will share his fortune with his three friends . With Sorrento and his Sixers on his heels , Parzival plays Tempest , role - plays King Arthur and various characters in Monty Python and the Holy Grail , and retrieves the Easter egg in Adventure . His victory grants him control of the OASIS , including wiping out his enemies ' avatars , resurrecting his friends , and a Big Red Button that would wipe OASIS . Sorrento is arrested for the murder of Daito and for conspiring to kill Wade and the others . Back in Oregon , Wade and Art3mis meet in person and rekindle their relationship with a kiss . Characters ( edit ) Wade Owen Watts a.k.a. Parzival : the viewpoint character , an orphan from the `` stacks '' surrounding metropolitan Oklahoma City . Wade names his OASIS character Parzival after the Arthurian knight involved in the quest for the holy grail , and dedicates his life to finding James Halliday 's Easter egg . He is 18 years old when he finds the Copper Key in the prologue of the book . His username at the virtual high school he attends is Wade3 . Wade 's character was based on a mix of Cline as well as his geek friends . James Donovan Halliday a.k.a. Anorak : creator of OASIS . A big fan of 1980s culture , he announces in his will his plans to leave his entire fortune to whoever can find his Easter egg that he had hidden in OASIS . His character was initially inspired by Willy Wonka who Cline described as a `` rich eccentric holding a fantastic contest '' . Cline used the personalities of Howard Hughes and Richard Garriott , and placed Halliday 's birth year around the same as his own so that his pop culture interests would coincide with Cline 's `` and the other middle - aged uber geeks I know '' . Aech ( pronounced like the letter H ) : Wade 's best friend , fellow gunter , and rival in the quest to find the egg . Aech 's specialty is in PvP and first - person shooter games , and is one of the top combatants on OASIS . Although Aech 's avatar is an athletic Caucasian heterosexual male , Aech is played by an African - American lesbian named Helen Harris , who grew up in Atlanta , Georgia and is about the same age as Wade . Aech is based partly on Cline 's friend Harry Knowles as well as himself and other geeks , both men and women . Art3mis : a famous female gunter and blogger . Wade has a huge cyber-crush on her , which is complicated by their competition in search of the egg . She chose her avatar 's name from the Greek goddess of the hunt . Like other characters , Cline based Art3mis on himself and other geeks , both men and women . Her real name is Samantha Evelyn Cook from Vancouver , British Columbia and she has a port - wine stain on her face . Ogden `` Og '' Morrow : Co-creator of the OASIS and best friend of James Halliday . They founded the video game company Gregarious Games , where he would handle the business operations , and which would later become Gregarious Simulation Systems ( GSS ) , the company that launched OASIS . His appearance and personality are described as being `` a cross between Albert Einstein and Santa Claus . '' Concerned that people were using it to escape reality , he quits GSS and works on educational software with his wife Kira until her death . His relationship with Halliday deteriorated , and the two men remained estranged until before Halliday 's death , when he is entrusted with ensuring that the hunt goes smoothly and without cheating . Ogden lives in Oregon and owns a set of advanced OASIS consoles and immersion rigs , and is able to monitor everyone in the OASIS , even in private chat rooms . He rarely appears in public , and only shows up on the OASIS once a year on his birthday , where he assumes the avatar of the Great and Powerful Og . Ogden 's character and relationship with Halliday was inspired by Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak , with Morrow being more like Jobs as a `` charismatic tech leader '' . Daito : one of the two Japanese gunters who rise to the top of the scoreboard early on in the hunt , working in a team with `` brother '' , Shoto . The pair have a generally tense , but not unfriendly relationship with Aech , and Art3mis , They are closer to Parzival , and work together on quests unrelated to the hunt . They are based on otaku : Japanese geeks who enjoy movies and anime , as well as hikikomori : people who live as recluses inside their family 's homes . Daito 's real name is revealed to be Toshiro Yoshiaki after he is killed by the IOI . Shoto : the second and younger of the two Japanese gunters working as a team in their quest for the egg . Shoto 's real name is Akihide Karatsu . Following the death of his partner , Shoto collaborates with Art3mis , Aech and Wade to finish the hunt . Nolan Sorrento : the head of operations at Innovative Online Industries ( IOI ) , the multinational corporation that serves as an Internet service provider for most of the world , and that plans to take over and monetize the OASIS . Sorrento is head of IOI 's Oology division , which is dedicated to searching for Halliday 's Easter egg . His avatar name is IOI - 655321 , after his employee number . IOI employees in the division are nicknamed Sixers , after their six - digit employee numbers that also begin with the number 6 . Cline said that he named Sorrento after Nolan Bushnell , founder of the video game company Atari , and said , `` Not that I think Nolan is a bad guy , or anything . It 's meant as a subtle tribute ! '' Reception ( edit ) Ready Player One was a New York Times bestseller . Among those praising the book were Entertainment Weekly , The Boston Globe , The A.V. Club , CNN.com , io9 , and Boing Boing . USA Today wrote that the novel `` undoubtedly qualifies Cline as the hottest geek on the planet right now . '' NPR said that the book was `` ridiculously fun and large - hearted '' . Cline `` takes a far - out premise and engages the reader instantly '' with a `` deeply felt narrative ( that ) makes it almost impossible to stop turning the pages . '' Janet Maslin of The New York Times wrote that `` The book gets off to a witty start '' but noted that it lacks at least one dimension , stating that gaming had overwhelmed everything else about this book . Rebecca Serle of HuffPost described the book as `` the grown - up 's Harry Potter '' and that it `` has it all -- nostalgia , trivia , adventure , romance , heart and , dare I say it , some very fascinating social commentary . '' The book has been translated into over 20 languages . In an interview with Fortune , Cline said that his book had inspired designers at companies such as Oculus VR which recommended the book for their new employees . Oculus has also invited Cline several times to sign books and demo hardware . Spin - offs and sequels ( edit ) Short story ( edit ) Lacero , a fan - fiction story by Andy Weir , was published in the 2016 edition of Ready Player One . It follows the story of Nolan Sorrento and functions as a precursor to the main novel , and is considered canonical to the Ready Player One fictional universe . Sequel novel ( edit ) In 2015 , in an interview with Den of Geek , screenwriter Zak Penn reported that Cline was working on a sequel to the novel . In December 2017 , Cline himself confirmed he is writing a sequel . In other media ( edit ) Easter egg hunt promotion ( edit ) Ten months after the first edition release , Cline revealed on his blog that Ready Player One itself contained an elaborately hidden Easter egg . This clue would form the first part of a series of staged video gaming tests , similar to the plot of the novel . Cline also revealed that the competition 's grand prize would be a DeLorean . The game Ultimate Collector : Garage Sale by Austin - based developer Portalarium was featured in one part of the contest . The final stage of the contest was announced on August 1 , 2012 , and was to set a world record on one of several classic arcade or Atari 2600 games . This was completed on August 9 , 2012 by Craig Queen , who set a new world record in Joust . He was awarded the DeLorean on the TV show X-Play . Film adaptation ( edit ) Main article : Ready Player One ( film ) The film rights were purchased by Warner Bros. on the same day Cline finalized his publishing deal with Random House , one year prior to the novel 's publication . Dan Farah brought the project into the studio and is producing it with Donald De Line . Cline adapted his novel into a screenplay . Over the years , Eric Eason and Zak Penn assisted Cline with rewrites . Steven Spielberg signed on to direct in March 2015 . Spielberg and Kristie Macosko Krieger of Amblin Partners also joined Deline and Farah as producers . Warner Bros. initially announced a release date of December 15 , 2017 . On February 9 , 2016 , the release date was pushed back to March 30 , 2018 , to avoid competition with Star Wars : The Last Jedi . The movie began production in the spring of 2016 and was filmed in both the United States and the United Kingdom . On June 9 , 2016 , Variety stated that Spielberg 's regular collaborator John Williams was planning on composing the film 's score . However , scheduling conflicts with another Spielberg film , The Post , led to Spielberg signing Alan Silvestri for the score . The film stars Tye Sheridan , Olivia Cooke , Ben Mendelsohn , Lena Waithe , Simon Pegg , Hannah John - Kamen and Mark Rylance . It premiered at South by Southwest on March 11 , 2018 , and was theatrically released by Warner Bros. in the United States on March 29 , 2018 . It received generally positive reviews from critics , who praised its visuals and brisk pacing , and noted it an improvement over the book . This film received criticism for its lack of character development and its `` achingly regressive '' view of pop culture fans .

The city developed from a Phoenician colony into the capital of an empire dominating the Mediterranean during the first millennium BC . The legendary Queen Dido is regarded as the founder of the city , though her historicity has been questioned . According to accounts by Timaeus of Tauromenium , she purchased from a local tribe the amount of land that could be covered by an oxhide . Cutting the skin into strips , she laid out her claim and founded an empire that would become , through the Punic Wars , the only existential threat to the Roman Empire until the coming of the Vandals several centuries later . The ancient city was destroyed by the Roman Republic in the Third Punic War in 146 BC then re-developed as Roman Carthage , which became the major city of the Roman Empire in the province of Africa . The Roman city was again occupied by the Muslim conquest of the Maghreb in 698 . The site remained uninhabited , the regional power shifting to the Medina of Tunis in the medieval period , until the early 20th century , when it began to develop into a coastal suburb of Tunis , incorporated as Carthage municipality in 1919 . The archaeological site was first surveyed in 1830 , by Danish consul Christian Tuxen Falbe . Excavations were performed in the second half of the 19th century by Charles Ernest Beulé and by Alfred Louis Delattre . The Carthage National Museum was founded in 1875 by Cardinal Charles Lavigerie . Excavations performed by French archaeologists in the 1920s attracted an extraordinary amount of attention because of the evidence they produced for child sacrifice , in Greco - Roman and Biblical tradition associated with the Canaanite god Baal Hammon . The open - air Carthage Paleo - Christian Museum has exhibits excavated under the auspices of UNESCO from 1975 to 1984 .

Greek Karkhēdōn ( Καρχηδών ) and Etruscan * Carθaza ) from the Punic qrt - ḥdšt ( 𐤒𐤓𐤕 𐤇𐤃𐤔𐤕 ‬ ) `` new city '' , implying it was a `` new Tyre '' . The Latin adjective pūnicus , meaning `` Phoenician '' , is reflected in English in some borrowings from Latin -- notably the Punic Wars and the Punic language . The Modern Standard Arabic form قرطاج ( Qarṭāj ) is an adoption of French Carthage , replacing an older local toponym reported as Cartagenna that directly continued the Latin name . Topography ( edit ) Archaeological map Archaeological Site of Carthage Archaeological Site of Carthage View of two columns at Carthage Carthage was built on a promontory with sea inlets to the north and the south . The city 's location made it master of the Mediterranean 's maritime trade . All ships crossing the sea had to pass between Sicily and the coast of Tunisia , where Carthage was built , affording it great power and influence . Two large , artificial harbors were built within the city , one for harboring the city 's massive navy of 220 warships and the other for mercantile trade . A walled tower overlooked both harbors . The city had massive walls , 37 km ( 23 mi ) in length , longer than the walls of comparable cities . Most of the walls were located on the shore , thus could be less impressive , as Carthaginian control of the sea made attack from that direction difficult . The 4.0 to 4.8 km ( 2.5 to 3 mi ) of wall on the isthmus to the west were truly massive and were never penetrated . The city had a huge necropolis or burial ground , religious area , market places , council house , towers , and a theater , and was divided into four equally sized residential areas with the same layout . Roughly in the middle of the city stood a high citadel called the Byrsa . Carthage was one of the largest cities of the Hellenistic period and was among the largest cities in preindustrial history . Whereas by AD 14 , Rome had at least 750,000 inhabitants and in the following century may have reached 1 million , the cities of Alexandria and Antioch numbered only a few hundred thousand or less . According to the not always reliable history of Herodian , Carthage rivaled Alexandria for second place in the Roman empire . Punic ruins in Byrsa On top of Byrsa hill , the location of the Roman Forum , a residential area from the last century of existence ( early second century BCE . ) of the Punic city was excavated by the French archaeologist Serge Lancel . The neighborhood , with its houses , shops , and private spaces , is significant for what it reveals about daily life there over 2100 years ago . The remains have been preserved under embankments , the substructures of the later Roman forum , whose foundation piles dot the district . The housing blocks are separated by a grid of straight streets about 6 m ( 20 ft ) wide , with a roadway consisting of clay ; in situ stairs compensate for the slope of the hill . Construction of this type presupposes organization and political will , and has inspired the name of the neighborhood , `` Hannibal district '' , referring to the legendary Punic general or sufet ( consul ) at the beginning of the second century BCE . The habitat is typical , even stereotypical . The street was often used as a storefront / shopfront ; cisterns were installed in basements to collect water for domestic use , and a long corridor on the right side of each residence led to a courtyard containing a sump , around which various other elements may be found . In some places , the ground is covered with mosaics called punica pavement , sometimes using a characteristic red mortar . The merchant harbor at Carthage was developed , after settlement of the nearby Punic town of Utica . Eventually the surrounding countryside was brought into the orbit of the Punic urban centers , first commercially , then politically . Direct management over cultivation of neighbouring lands by Punic owners followed . A 28 - volume work on agriculture written in Punic by Mago , a retired army general ( c. 300 ) , was translated into Latin and later into Greek . The original and both translations have been lost ; however , some of Mago 's text has survived in other Latin works . Olive trees ( e.g. , grafting ) , fruit trees ( pomegranate , almond , fig , date palm ) , viniculture , bees , cattle , sheep , poultry , implements , and farm management were among the ancient topics which Mago discussed . As well , Mago addresses the wine - maker 's art ( here a type of sherry ) . In Punic farming society , according to Mago , the small estate owners were the chief producers . They were , two modern historians write , not absent landlords . Rather , the likely reader of Mago was `` the master of a relatively modest estate , from which , by great personal exertion , he extracted the maximum yield . '' Mago counselled the rural landowner , for the sake of their own ' utilitarian ' interests , to treat carefully and well their managers and farm workers , or their overseers and slaves . Yet elsewhere these writers suggest that rural land ownership provided also a new power base among the city 's nobility , for those resident in their country villas . By many , farming was viewed as an alternative endeavour to an urban business . Another modern historian opines that more often it was the urban merchant of Carthage who owned rural farming land to some profit , and also to retire there during the heat of summer . It may seem that Mago anticipated such an opinion , and instead issued this contrary advice ( as quoted by the Roman writer Columella ) : `` The man who acquires an estate must sell his house , lest he prefer to live in the town rather than in the country . Anyone who prefers to live in a town has no need of an estate in the country . '' `` One who has bought land should sell his town house , so that he will have no desire to worship the household gods of the city rather than those of the country ; the man who takes greater delight in his city residence will have no need of a country estate . '' The issues involved in rural land management also reveal underlying features of Punic society , its structure and stratification . The hired workers might be considered ' rural proletariat ' , drawn from the local Berbers . Whether or not there remained Berber landowners next to Punic - run farms is unclear . Some Berbers became sharecroppers . Slaves acquired for farm work were often prisoners of war . In lands outside Punic political control , independent Berbers cultivated grain and raised horses on their lands . Yet within the Punic domain that surrounded the city - state of Carthage , there were ethnic divisions in addition to the usual quasi feudal distinctions between lord and peasant , or master and serf . This inherent instability in the countryside drew the unwanted attention of potential invaders . Yet for long periods Carthage was able to manage these social difficulties . The many amphorae with Punic markings subsequently found about ancient Mediterranean coastal settlements testify to Carthaginian trade in locally made olive oil and wine . Carthage 's agricultural production was held in high regard by the ancients , and rivaled that of Rome -- they were once competitors , e.g. , over their olive harvests . Under Roman rule , however , grain production ( ( wheat ) and barley ) for export increased dramatically in ' Africa ' ; yet these later fell with the rise in Roman Egypt 's grain exports . Thereafter olive groves and vineyards were re-established around Carthage . Visitors to the several growing regions that surrounded the city wrote admiringly of the lush green gardens , orchards , fields , irrigation channels , hedgerows ( as boundaries ) , as well as the many prosperous farming towns located across the rural landscape . Accordingly , the Greek author and compiler Diodorus Siculus ( fl . 1st century BCE ) , who enjoyed access to ancient writings later lost , and on which he based most of his writings , described agricultural land near the city of Carthage circa 310 BC : `` It was divided into market gardens and orchards of all sorts of fruit trees , with many streams of water flowing in channels irrigating every part . There were country homes everywhere , lavishly built and covered with stucco ... Part of the land was planted with vines , part with olives and other productive trees . Beyond these , cattle and sheep were pastured on the plains , and there were meadows with grazing horses . '' The Chora ( farm lands of Carthage ) encompassed a limited area : the north coastal tell , the lower Bagradas river valley ( inland from Utica ) , Cape Bon , and the adjacent sahel on the east coast . Punic culture here achieved the introduction of agricultural sciences first developed for lands of the eastern Mediterranean , and their adaptation to local African conditions . The urban landscape of Carthage is known in part from ancient authors , augmented by modern digs and surveys conducted by archeologists . The `` first urban nucleus '' dating to the seventh century , in area about 10 hectares ( 25 acres ) , was apparently located on low - lying lands along the coast ( north of the later harbors ) . As confirmed by archaeological excavations , Carthage was a `` creation ex nihilo '' , built on ' virgin ' land , and situated at the end of a peninsula ( per the ancient coastline ) . Here among `` mud brick walls and beaten clay floors '' ( recently uncovered ) were also found extensive cemeteries , which yielded evocative grave goods like clay masks . `` Thanks to this burial archaeology we know more about archaic Carthage than about any other contemporary city in the western Mediterranean . '' Already in the eighth century , fabric dyeing operations had been established , evident from crushed shells of murex ( from which the ' Phoenician purple ' was derived ) . Nonetheless , only a `` meager picture '' of the cultural life of the earliest pioneers in the city can be conjectured , and not much about housing , monuments or defenses . The Roman poet Virgil ( 70 -- 19 BC ) imagined early Carthage , when his legendary character Aeneas had arrived there : Walled city - state of Carthage , before its fiery fall in 146 B.C. `` Aeneas found , where lately huts had been , marvelous buildings , gateways , cobbled ways , and din of wagons . There the Tyrians were hard at work : laying courses for walls , rolling up stones to build the citadel , while others picked out building sites and plowed a boundary furrow . Laws were being enacted , magistrates and a sacred senate chosen . Here men were dredging harbors , there they laid the deep foundations of a theatre , and quarried massive pillars ... `` The two inner harbours ( called in Punic cothon ) were located in the southeast ; one being commercial , and the other for war . Their definite functions are not entirely known , probably for the construction , outfitting , or repair of ships , perhaps also loading and unloading cargo . Larger anchorages existed to the north and south of the city . North and west of the cothon were located several industrial areas , e.g. , metalworking and pottery ( e.g. , for amphora ) , which could serve both inner harbours , and ships anchored to the south of the city . About the Byrsa , the citadel area to the north , considering its importance our knowledge of it is patchy . Its prominent heights were the scene of fierce combat during the fiery destruction of the city in 146 BC . The Byrsa was the reported site of the Temple of Eshmun ( the healing god ) , at the top of a stairway of sixty steps . A temple of Tanit ( the city 's queen goddess ) was likely situated on the slope of the ' lesser Byrsa ' immediately to the east , which runs down toward the sea . Also situated on the Byrsa were luxury homes . South of the citadel , near the cothon ( the inner harbours ) was the tophet , a special and very old cemetery , which when begun lay outside the city 's boundaries . Here the Salammbô was located , the Sanctuary of Tanit , not a temple but an enclosure for placing stone stelae . These were mostly short and upright , carved for funeral purposes . The presence of infant skeletons from here may indicate the occurrence of child sacrifice , as claimed in the Bible , although there is considerable doubt among archeologists as to this interpretation and many consider it simply a cemetery devoted to infants . Probably the tophet burial fields were `` dedicated at an early date , perhaps by the first settlers . '' Between the sea - filled cothon for shipping and the Byrsa heights lay the agora ( Greek : `` market '' ) , the city - state 's central marketplace for business and commerce . The agora was also an area of public squares and plazas , where the people might formally assemble , or gather for festivals . It was the site of religious shrines , and the location of whatever were the major municipal buildings of Carthage . Here beat the heart of civic life . In this district of the Carthage , more probably , the ruling suffets presided , the council of elders convened , the tribunal of the 104 met , and justice was dispensed at trials in the open air . Early residential districts wrapped around the Byrsa from the south to the north east . Houses usually were whitewashed and blank to the street , but within were courtyards open to the sky . In these neighborhoods multistory construction later became common , some up to six stories tall according to an ancient Greek author . Several architectural floorplans of homes have been revealed by recent excavations , as well as the general layout of several city blocks . Stone stairs were set in the streets , and drainage was planned , e.g. , in the form of soakways leaching into the sandy soil . Along the Byrsa 's southern slope were located not only fine old homes , but also many of the earliest grave - sites , juxtaposed in small areas , interspersed with daily life . Artisan workshops were located in the city at sites north and west of the harbours . The location of three metal workshops ( implied from iron slag and other vestiges of such activity ) were found adjacent to the naval and commercial harbours , and another two were further up the hill toward the Byrsa citadel . Sites of pottery kilns have been identified , between the agora and the harbours , and further north . Earthenware often used Greek models . A fuller 's shop for preparing woolen cloth ( shrink and thicken ) was evidently situated further to the west and south , then by the edge of the city . Carthage also produced objects of rare refinement . During the 4th and 3rd centuries , the sculptures of the sarcophagi became works of art . `` Bronze engraving and stone - carving reached their zenith . '' The elevation of the land at the promontory on the seashore to the north - east ( now called Sidi Bou Saïd ) , was twice as high above sea level as that at the Byrsa ( 100 m and 50 m ) . In between runs a ridge , several times reaching 50 m ; it continues northwestward along the seashore , and forms the edge of a plateau - like area between the Byrsa and the sea . Newer urban developments lay here in these northern districts . Surrounding Carthage were walls `` of great strength '' said in places to rise above 13 m , being nearly 10 m thick , according to ancient authors . To the west , three parallel walls were built . The walls altogether ran for about 33 kilometres ( 21 miles ) to encircle the city . The heights of the Byrsa were additionally fortified ; this area being the last to succumb to the Romans in 146 BC . Originally the Romans had landed their army on the strip of land extending southward from the city .

Punic Republic ( edit ) Main article : Ancient Carthage Downfall of the Carthaginian Empire Lost to Rome in the First Punic War ( 264 -- 241 BC ) Won after the First Punic War , lost in the Second Punic War Lost in the Second Punic War ( 218 -- 201 BC ) Conquered by Rome in the Third Punic War ( 149 -- 146 BC ) Carthaginian - held territory in the early 3rd century BC The Carthaginian republic was one of the longest - lived and largest states in the ancient Mediterranean . Reports relay several wars with Syracuse and finally , Rome , which eventually resulted in the defeat and destruction of Carthage in the Third Punic War . The Carthaginians were Phoenician settlers originating in the Mediterranean coast of the Near East . They spoke Canaanite , a Semitic language , and followed a local variety of the ancient Canaanite religion . Ruins of Carthage The fall of Carthage came at the end of the Third Punic War in 146 BC at the Battle of Carthage . Despite initial devastating Roman naval losses and Rome 's recovery from the brink of defeat after the terror of a 15 - year occupation of much of Italy by Hannibal , the end of the series of wars resulted in the end of Carthaginian power and the complete destruction of the city by Scipio Aemilianus . The Romans pulled the Phoenician warships out into the harbor and burned them before the city , and went from house to house , capturing and enslaving the people . About 50,000 Carthaginians were sold into slavery . The city was set ablaze and razed to the ground , leaving only ruins and rubble . After the fall of Carthage , Rome annexed the majority of the Carthaginian colonies , including other North African locations such as Volubilis , Lixus , Chellah , and Mogador . The legend that the city was sown with salt remains widely accepted despite a lack of evidence among ancient historical accounts ; According to R.T. Ridley , the earliest such claim is attributable to B.L. Hallward 's chapter in Cambridge Ancient History , published in 1930 . Ridley contended that Hallward 's claim may have gained traction due to historical evidence of other salted - earth instances such as Abimelech 's salting of Shechem in Judges 9 : 45 . B.H. Warmington admitted he had repeated Hallward 's error , but posited that the legend precedes 1930 and inspired repetitions of the practice . He also suggested that it is useful to understand how subsequent historical narratives have been framed and that the symbolic value of the legend is so great and enduring that it mitigates a deficiency of concrete evidence . Starting in the 19th century , various texts claim that after defeating the city of Carthage in the Third Punic War ( 146 BC ) , the Roman general Scipio Aemilianus Africanus ordered the city be sacked , forced its surviving inhabitants into slavery , plowed it over and sowed it with salt . However , no ancient sources exist documenting the salting itself . The element of salting is therefore probably a later invention modeled on the Biblical story of Shechem . The ritual of symbolically drawing a plow over the site of a city is mentioned in ancient sources , but not in reference to Carthage specifically . When Pope Boniface VIII destroyed Palestrina in 1299 , he issued a papal bull that it be plowed `` following the old example of Carthage in Africa '' and also salted . `` I have run the plough over it , like the ancient Carthage of Africa , and I have had salt sown upon it ... '' Roman Carthage ( edit ) Roman Carthage Main article : Roman Carthage When Carthage fell , its nearby rival Utica , a Roman ally , was made capital of the region and replaced Carthage as the leading center of Punic trade and leadership . It had the advantageous position of being situated on the outlet of the Medjerda River , Tunisia 's only river that flowed all year long . However , grain cultivation in the Tunisian mountains caused large amounts of silt to erode into the river . This silt accumulated in the harbor until it became useless , and Rome was forced to rebuild Carthage . By 122 BC , Gaius Gracchus founded a short - lived colony , called Colonia Iunonia , after the Latin name for the Punic goddess Tanit , Iuno Caelestis . The purpose was to obtain arable lands for impoverished farmers . The Senate abolished the colony some time later , to undermine Gracchus ' power . After this ill - fated attempt , a new city of Carthage was built on the same land by Julius Caesar in the period from 49 to 44 BC , and by the first century , it had grown to be the second - largest city in the western half of the Roman Empire , with a peak population of 500,000 . It was the center of the province of Africa , which was a major breadbasket of the Empire . Among its major monuments was an amphitheater . Carthage also became a center of early Christianity ( see Carthage ( episcopal see ) ) . In the first of a string of rather poorly reported councils at Carthage a few years later , no fewer than 70 bishops attended . Tertullian later broke with the mainstream that was increasingly represented in the West by the primacy of the Bishop of Rome , but a more serious rift among Christians was the Donatist controversy , which Augustine of Hippo spent much time and parchment arguing against . At the Council of Carthage ( 397 ) , the biblical canon for the western Church was confirmed . The Vandal Kingdom in 500 , centered on Carthage The political fallout from the deep disaffection of African Christians is supposedly a crucial factor in the ease with which Carthage and the other centers were captured in the fifth century by Genseric , king of the Vandals , who defeated the Roman general Bonifacius and made the city the capital of the Vandal Kingdom . Genseric was considered a heretic , too , an Arian , and though Arians commonly despised Catholic Christians , a mere promise of toleration might have caused the city 's population to accept him . After a failed attempt to recapture the city in the fifth century , the Eastern Roman Empire finally subdued the Vandals in the Vandalic War in 533 -- 534 . Thereafter , the city became the seat of the praetorian prefecture of Africa , which was made into an exarchate during the emperor Maurice 's reign , as was Ravenna on the Italian Peninsula . These two exarchates were the western bulwarks of the Byzantine Empire , all that remained of its power in the West . In the early seventh century Heraclius the Elder , the exarch of Carthage , overthrew the Byzantine emperor Phocas , whereupon his son Heraclius succeeded to the imperial throne . Islamic period ( edit ) Main articles : Muslim conquest of the Maghreb and Battle of Carthage ( 698 ) The Roman Exarchate of Africa was not able to withstand the seventh - century Muslim conquest of the Maghreb . The Umayyad Caliphate under Abd al - Malik ibn Marwan in 686 sent a force led by Zuhayr ibn Qais , who won a battle over the Romans and Berbers led by King Kusaila of the Kingdom of Altava on the plain of Kairouan , but he could not follow that up . In 695 , Hasan ibn al - Nu'man captured Carthage and advanced into the Atlas Mountains . An imperial fleet arrived and retook Carthage , but in 698 , Hasan ibn al - Nu'man returned and defeated Emperor Tiberios III at the 698 Battle of Carthage . Roman imperial forces withdrew from all of Africa except Ceuta . Roman Carthage was destroyed -- its walls torn down , its water supply cut off , and its harbors made unusable . The destruction of the Exarchate of Africa marked a permanent end to the Byzantine Empire 's influence in the region . The Medina of Tunis , originally a Berber settlement , was established as the new regional center under the Umayyad Caliphate in the early 8th century . Under the Aghlabids , the people of Tunis revolted numerous times , but the city profited from economic improvements and quickly became the second most important in the kingdom . It was briefly the national capital , from the end of the reign of Ibrahim II in 902 , until 909 , when the Shi'ite Berbers took over Ifriqiya and founded the Fatimid Caliphate . Carthage remained a residential see until the high medieval period , mentioned in two letters of Pope Leo IX dated 1053 , written in reply to consultations regarding a conflict between the bishops of Carthage and Gummi . In each of the two letters , Pope Leo declares that , after the Bishop of Rome , the first archbishop and chief metropolitan of the whole of Africa is the bishop of Carthage . Later , an archbishop of Carthage named Cyriacus was imprisoned by the Arab rulers because of an accusation by some Christians . Pope Gregory VII wrote him a letter of consolation , repeating the hopeful assurances of the primacy of the Church of Carthage , `` whether the Church of Carthage should still lie desolate or rise again in glory '' . By 1076 , Cyriacus was set free , but there was only one other bishop in the province . These are the last of whom there is mention in that period of the history of the see . Modern History ( edit ) Historical map of the Tunis area ( 1903 ) , showing St. Louis of Carthage between Sidi Bou Said and Le Kram . Carthage is some 15 kilometres ( 9.3 miles ) east - northeast of Tunis ; the settlements nearest to Carthage were the town of Sidi Bou Said to the north and the village of Le Kram to the south . Sidi Bou Saint was a village which had grown around the tomb of the eponymous sufi saint ( d . 1231 ) , which had been developed into a town under Ottoman rule in the 18th century . Le Kram was developed in the late 19th century under French administration as a settlement close to the port of La Goulette . In 1881 , Tunisia became a French protectorate , and in the same year Charles Lavigerie , who was archbishop of Algiers , became apostolic administrator of the vicariate of Tunis . In the following year , Lavigerie became a cardinal . He `` saw himself as the reviver of the ancient Christian Church of Africa , the Church of Cyprian of Carthage '' , and , on 10 November 1884 , was successful in his great ambition of having the metropolitan see of Carthage restored , with himself as its first archbishop . In line with the declaration of Pope Leo IX in 1053 , Pope Leo XIII acknowledged the revived Archdiocese of Carthage as the primatial see of Africa and Lavigerie as primate . The Acropolium of Carthage ( Saint Louis Cathedral of Carthage ) was erected on Byrsa hill in 1884 . Archaeological site ( edit ) The Danish consul Christian Tuxen Falbe conducted a first survey of the topography of the archaeological site ( published in 1833 ) . Antiquarian interest was intensified following the publication of Flaubert 's Salammbô in 1858 . Charles Ernest Beulé performed some preliminary excavations of Roman remains on Byrsa hill in 1860 . A more systematic survey of both Punic and Roman - era remains is due to Alfred Louis Delattre , who was sent to Tunis by cardinal Charles Lavigerie in 1875 on both an apostolic and an archaeological mission . Audollent ( 1901 , p. 203 ) cites Delattre and Lavigerie to the effect that in the 1880s , locals still knew the area of the ancient city under the name of Cartagenna ( i.e. reflecting the Latin n - stem Carthāgine ) . Auguste Audollent divides the area of Roman Carthage into four quarters , Cartagenna , Dermèche , Byrsa and La Malga . Cartagenna and Dermèche correspond with the lower city , including the site of Punic Carthage ; Byrsa is associated with the upper city , which in Punic times was a walled citadel above the harbour ; and La Malga is linked with the more remote parts of the upper city in Roman times . French - led excavations at Carthage began in 1921 , and from 1923 reported finds of a large quantity of urns containing a mixture of animal and children 's bones . René Dussaud identified a 4th - century BC stela found in Carthage as depicting a child sacrifice . A temple at Amman ( 1400 -- 1250 BC ) excavated and reported upon by J.B. Hennessy in 1966 , shows the possibility of bestial and human sacrifice by fire . While evidence of child sacrifice in Canaan was the object of academic disagreement , with some scholars arguing that merely children 's cemeteries had been unearthed in Carthage , the mixture of children 's with animal bones as well as associated epigraphic evidence involving mention of mlk led to a consensus that , at least in Carthage , child sacrifice was indeed common practice . In 2016 , an ancient Carthaginian individual , who was excavated from a Punic tomb in Byrsa Hill , was found to belong to the rare U5b2c1 maternal haplogroup . The Young Man of Byrsa specimen dates from the late 6th century BCE , and his lineage is believed to represent early gene flow from Iberia to the Maghreb . Commune ( edit ) Further information : Carthage ( commune ) In 1920 , the first seaplane base was built on the Lake of Tunis for the seaplanes of Compagnie Aéronavale . The Tunis Airfield opened in 1938 , serving around 5,800 passengers annually on the Paris - Tunis route . During World War II , the airport was used by the United States Army Air Force Twelfth Air Force as a headquarters and command control base for the Italian Campaign of 1943 . Construction on the Tunis - Carthage Airport , which was fully funded by France , began in 1944 , and in 1948 the airport become the main hub for Tunisair . In the 1950s the Lycée Français de Carthage was established to serve French families in Carthage . In 1961 it was given to the Tunisian government as part of the Independence of Tunisia , so the nearby Collège Maurice Cailloux in La Marsa , previously an annex of the Lycée Français de Carthage , was renamed to the Lycée Français de La Marsa and began serving the lycée level . It is currently the Lycée Gustave Flaubert . After Tunisian independence in 1956 , the Tunis conurbation gradually extended around the airport , and Carthage ( قرطاج Qarṭāj ) is now a suburb of Tunis , covering the area between Sidi Bou Said and Le Kram . Its population as of January 2013 was estimated at 21,276 , mostly attracting the more wealthy residents . If Carthage is not the capital , it tends to be the political pole , a `` place of emblematic power '' according to Sophie Bessis , leaving to Tunis the economic and administrative roles . The Carthage Palace ( the Tunisian presidential palace ) is located in the coast . The suburb has six train stations of the TGM line between Le Kram and Sidi Bou Said : Carthage Salammbo ( named for Salambo , the fictional daughter of Hamilcar ) , Carthage Byrsa ( named for Byrsa hill ) , Carthage Dermech ( Dermèche ) , Carthage Hannibal ( named for Hannibal ) , Carthage Présidence ( named for the Presidential Palace ) and Carthage Amilcar ( named for Hamilcar ) . Trade and business ( edit ) Map of the Mediterranean in 218 BC The merchants of Carthage were in part heirs of the Mediterranean trade developed by Phoenicia , and so also heirs of the rivalry with Greek merchants . Business activity was accordingly both stimulated and challenged . Cyprus had been an early site of such commercial contests . The Phoenicians then had ventured into the western Mediterranean , founding trading posts , including Utica and Carthage . The Greeks followed , entering the western seas where the commercial rivalry continued . Eventually it would lead , especially in Sicily , to several centuries of intermittent war . Although Greek - made merchandise was generally considered superior in design , Carthage also produced trade goods in abundance . That Carthage came to function as a manufacturing colossus was shown during the Third Punic War with Rome . Carthage , which had previously disarmed , then was made to face the fatal Roman siege . The city `` suddenly organised the manufacture of arms '' with great skill and effectiveness . According to Strabo ( 63 BC -- AD 21 ) in his Geographica : `` ( Carthage ) each day produced one hundred and forty finished shields , three hundred swords , five hundred spears , and one thousand missiles for the catapults ... Furthermore , ( Carthage although surrounded by the Romans ) built one hundred and twenty decked ships in two months ... for old timber had been stored away in readiness , and a large number of skilled workmen , maintained at public expense . '' The textiles industry in Carthage probably started in private homes , but the existence of professional weavers indicates that a sort of factory system later developed . Products included embroidery , carpets , and use of the purple murex dye ( for which the Carthaginian isle of Djerba was famous ) . Metalworkers developed specialized skills , i.e. , making various weapons for the armed forces , as well as domestic articles , such as knives , forks , scissors , mirrors , and razors ( all articles found in tombs ) . Artwork in metals included vases and lamps in bronze , also bowls , and plates . Other products came from such crafts as the potters , the glassmakers , and the goldsmiths . Inscriptions on votive stele indicate that many were not slaves but ' free citizens ' . Trade routes of Phoenicia ( Byblos , Sidon , Tyre ) & Carthage Phoenician and Punic merchant ventures were often run as a family enterprise , putting to work its members and its subordinate clients . Such family - run businesses might perform a variety of tasks : ( a ) own and maintain the ships , providing the captain and crew ; ( b ) do the negotiations overseas , either by barter or buy and sell , of ( i ) their own manufactured commodities and trade goods , and ( ii ) native products ( metals , foodstuffs , etc . ) to carry and trade elsewhere ; and ( c ) send their agents to stay at distant outposts in order to make lasting local contacts , and later to establish a warehouse of shipped goods for exchange , and eventually perhaps a settlement . Over generations , such activity might result in the creation of a wide - ranging network of trading operations . Ancillary would be the growth of reciprocity between different family firms , foreign and domestic . State protection was extended to its sea traders by the Phoenician city of Tyre and later likewise by the daughter city - state of Carthage . Stéphane Gsell , the well - regarded French historian of ancient North Africa , summarized the major principles guiding the civic rulers of Carthage with regard to its policies for trade and commerce : ( 1 ) to open and maintain markets for its merchants , whether by entering into direct contact with foreign peoples using either treaty negotiations or naval power , or by providing security for isolated trading stations ; ( 2 ) the reservation of markets exclusively for the merchants of Carthage , or where competition could not be eliminated , to regulate trade by state - sponsored agreements with its commercial rivals ; ( 3 ) suppression of piracy , and promotion of Carthage 's ability to freely navigate the seas . Both the Phoenicians and the Cathaginians were well known in antiquity for their secrecy in general , and especially pertaining to commercial contacts and trade routes . Both cultures excelled in commercial dealings . Strabo ( 63BC - AD21 ) the Greek geographer wrote that before its fall ( in 146 BC ) Carthage enjoyed a population of 700,000 , and directed an alliance of 300 cities . The Greek historian Polybius ( c. 203 -- 120 ) referred to Carthage as `` the wealthiest city in the world '' . Constitution of state ( edit ) A `` suffet '' ( possibly two ) was elected by the citizens , and held office with no military power for a one - year term . Carthaginian generals marshalled mercenary armies and were separately elected . From about 550 to 450 the Magonid family monopolized the top military position ; later the Barcid family acted similarly . Eventually it came to be that , after a war , the commanding general had to testify justifying his actions before a court of 104 judges . Aristotle ( 384 -- 322 ) discusses Carthage in his work , Politica ; he begins : `` The Carthaginians are also considered to have an excellent form of government . '' He briefly describes the city as a `` mixed constitution '' , a political arrangement with cohabiting elements of monarchy , aristocracy , and democracy , i.e. , a king ( Gk : basileus ) , a council of elders ( Gk : gerusia ) , and the people ( Gk : demos ) . Later Polybius of Megalopolis ( c. 204 -- 122 , Greek ) in his Histories would describe the Roman Republic in more detail as a mixed constitution in which the Consuls were the monarchy , the Senate the aristocracy , and the Assemblies the democracy . Evidently Carthage also had an institution of elders who advised the Suffets , similar to a Greek gerusia or the Roman Senate . We do not have a Punic name for this body . At times its members would travel with an army general on campaign . Members also formed permanent committees . The institution had several hundred members drawn from the wealthiest class who held office for life . Vacancies were probably filled by recruitment from among the elite , i.e. , by co-option . From among its members were selected the 104 Judges mentioned above . Later the 104 would come to evaluate not only army generals but other office holders as well . Aristotle regarded the 104 as most important ; he compared it to the ephorate of Sparta with regard to control over security . In Hannibal 's time , such a Judge held office for life . At some stage there also came to be independent self - perpetuating boards of five who filled vacancies and supervised ( non-military ) government administration . Popular assemblies also existed at Carthage . When deadlocked the Suffets and the quasi-senatorial institution of elders might request the assembly to vote ; also , assembly votes were requested in very crucial matters in order to achieve political consensus and popular coherence . The assembly members had no legal wealth or birth qualification . How its members were selected is unknown , e.g. , whether by festival group or urban ward or another method . The Greeks were favourably impressed by the constitution of Carthage ; Aristotle had a separate study of it made which unfortunately is lost . In his Politica he states : `` The government of Carthage is oligarchical , but they successfully escape the evils of oligarchy by enriching one portion of the people after another by sending them to their colonies . '' `` ( T ) heir policy is to send some ( poorer citizens ) to their dependent towns , where they grow rich . '' Yet Aristotle continues , `` ( I ) f any misfortune occurred , and the bulk of the subjects revolted , there would be no way of restoring peace by legal means . '' Aristotle remarked also : `` Many of the Carthaginian institutions are excellent . The superiority of their constitution is proved by the fact that the common people remain loyal to the constitution ; the Carthaginians have never had any rebellion worth speaking of , and have never been under the rule of a tyrant . '' Here one may remember that the city - state of Carthage , who citizens were mainly Libyphoenicians ( of Phoenician ancestry born in Africa ) , dominated and exploited an agricultural countryside composed mainly of native Berber sharecroppers and farmworkers , whose affiliations to Carthage were open to divergent possibilities . Beyond these more settled Berbers and the Punic farming towns and rural manors , lived the independent Berber tribes , who were mostly pastoralists . In the brief , uneven review of government at Carthage found in his Politica Aristotle mentions several faults . Thus , `` that the same person should hold many offices , which is a favorite practice among the Carthaginians . '' Aristotle disapproves , mentioning the flute - player and the shoemaker . Also , that `` magistrates should be chosen not only for their merit but for their wealth . '' Aristotle 's opinion is that focus on pursuit of wealth will lead to oligarchy and its evils . `` ( S ) urely it is a bad thing that the greatest offices ... should be bought . The law which allows this abuse makes wealth of more account than virtue , and the whole state becomes avaricious . For , whenever the chiefs of the state deem anything honorable , the other citizens are sure to follow their example ; and , where virtue has not the first place , their aristocracy can not be firmly established . '' In Carthage the people seemed politically satisfied and submissive , according to the historian Warmington . They in their assemblies only rarely exercised the few opportunities given them to assent to state decisions . Popular influence over government appears not to have been an issue at Carthage . Being a commercial republic fielding a mercenary army , the people were not conscripted for military service , an experience which can foster the feel for popular political action . But perhaps this misunderstands the society ; perhaps the people , whose values were based on small - group loyalty , felt themselves sufficiently connected to their city 's leadership by the very integrity of the person - to - person linkage within their social fabric . Carthage was very stable ; there were few openings for tyrants . Only after defeat by Rome devastated Punic imperial ambitions did the people of Carthage seem to question their governance and to show interest in political reform . In 196 , following the Second Punic War ( 218 -- 201 ) , Hannibal Barca , still greatly admired as a Barcid military leader , was elected suffet . When his reforms were blocked by a financial official about to become a judge for life , Hannibal rallied the populace against the 104 judges . He proposed a one - year term for the 104 , as part of a major civic overhaul . Additionally , the reform included a restructuring of the city 's revenues , and the fostering of trade and agriculture . The changes rather quickly resulted in a noticeable increase in prosperity . Yet his incorrigible political opponents cravenly went to Rome , to charge Hannibal with conspiracy , namely , plotting war against Rome in league with Antiochus the Hellenic ruler of Syria . Although the Roman Scipio Africanus resisted such manoeuvre , eventually intervention by Rome forced Hannibal to leave Carthage . Thus , corrupt city officials efficiently blocked Hannibal Barca in his efforts to reform the government of Carthage . Mago ( 6th century ) was King of Carthage ; the head of state , war leader , and religious figurehead . His family was considered to possess a sacred quality . Mago 's office was somewhat similar to that of a pharaoh , but although kept in a family it was not hereditary , it was limited by legal consent . Picard , accordingly , believes that the council of elders and the popular assembly are late institutions . Carthage was founded by the king of Tyre who had a royal monopoly on this trading venture . Thus it was the royal authority stemming from this traditional source of power that the King of Carthage possessed . Later , as other Phoenician ship companies entered the trading region , and so associated with the city - state , the King of Carthage had to keep order among a rich variety of powerful merchants in their negotiations among themselves and over risky commerce across the Mediterranean . Under these circumstance , the office of king began to be transformed . Yet it was not until the aristocrats of Carthage became wealthy owners of agricultural lands in Africa that a council of elders was institutionalized at Carthage . Contemporary sources ( edit ) Most ancient literature concerning Carthage comes from Greek and Roman sources as Carthage 's own documents were destroyed by the Romans . Apart from inscriptions , hardly any Punic literature has survived , and none in its own language and script . A brief catalogue would include : three short treaties with Rome ( Latin translations ) ; several pages of Hanno the Navigator 's log - book concerning his fifth century maritime exploration of the Atlantic coast of west Africa ( Greek translation ) ; fragments quoted from Mago 's fourth / third century 28 - volume treatise on agriculture ( Latin translations ) ; the Roman playwright Plautus ( c. 250 -- 184 ) in his Poenulus incorporates a few fictional speeches delivered in Punic , whose written lines are transcribed into Latin letters phonetically ; the thousands of inscriptions made in Punic script , thousands , but many extremely short , e.g. , a dedication to a deity with the personal name ( s ) of the devotee ( s ) . `` ( F ) rom the Greek author Plutarch ( ( c. 46 -- c. 120 ) ) we learn of the ' sacred books ' in Punic safeguarded by the city 's temples . Few Punic texts survive , however . '' Once `` the City Archives , the Annals , and the scribal lists of suffets '' existed , but evidently these were destroyed in the horrific fires during the Roman capture of the city in 146 BC . Yet some Punic books ( Latin : libri punici ) from the libraries of Carthage reportedly did survive the fires . These works were apparently given by Roman authorities to the newly augmented Berber rulers . Over a century after the fall of Carthage , the Roman politician - turned - author Gaius Sallustius Crispus or Sallust ( 86 -- 34 ) reported his having seen volumes written in Punic , which books were said to be once possessed by the Berber king , Hiempsal II ( r . 88 -- 81 ) . By way of Berber informants and Punic translators , Sallust had used these surviving books to write his brief sketch of Berber affairs . Juba II , reigned 25 BCE -- 23 CE Probably some of Hiempsal II 's libri punici , that had escaped the fires that consumed Carthage in 146 BC , wound up later in the large royal library of his grandson Juba II ( r. 25 BC - AD 24 ) . Juba II not only was a Berber king , and husband of Cleopatra 's daughter , but also a scholar and author in Greek of no less than nine works . He wrote for the Mediterranean - wide audience then enjoying classical literature . The libri punici inherited from his grandfather surely became useful to him when composing his Libyka , a work on North Africa written in Greek . Unfortunately , only fragments of Libyka survive , mostly from quotations made by other ancient authors . It may have been Juba II who ' discovered ' the five - centuries - old ' log book ' of Hanno the Navigator , called the Periplus , among library documents saved from fallen Carthage . In the end , however , most Punic writings that survived the destruction of Carthage `` did not escape the immense wreckage in which so many of Antiquity 's literary works perished . '' Accordingly , the long and continuous interactions between Punic citizens of Carthage and the Berber communities that surrounded the city have no local historian . Their political arrangements and periodic crises , their economic and work life , the cultural ties and social relations established and nourished ( infrequently as kin ) , are not known to us directly from ancient Punic authors in written accounts . Neither side has left us their stories about life in Punic - era Carthage . Regarding Phoenician writings , few remain and these seldom refer to Carthage . The more ancient and most informative are cuneiform tablets , ca . 1600 -- 1185 , from ancient Ugarit , located to the north of Phoenicia on the Syrian coast ; it was a Canaanite city politically affiliated with the Hittites . The clay tablets tell of myths , epics , rituals , medical and administrative matters , and also correspondence . The highly valued works of Sanchuniathon , an ancient priest of Beirut , who reportedly wrote on Phoenician religion and the origins of civilization , are themselves completely lost , but some little content endures twice removed . Sanchuniathon was said to have lived in the 11th century , which is considered doubtful . Much later a Phoenician History by Philo of Byblos ( 64 -- 141 ) reportedly existed , written in Greek , but only fragments of this work survive . An explanation proffered for why so few Phoenician works endured : early on ( 11th century ) archives and records began to be kept on papyrus , which does not long survive in a moist coastal climate . Also , both Phoenicians and Carthaginians were well known for their secrecy . Thus , of their ancient writings we have little of major interest left to us by Carthage , or by Phoenicia the country of origin of the city founders . `` Of the various Phoenician and Punic compositions alluded to by the ancient classical authors , not a single work or even fragment has survived in its original idiom . '' `` Indeed , not a single Phoenician manuscript has survived in the original ( language ) or in translation . '' We can not therefore access directly the line of thought or the contour of their worldview as expressed in their own words , in their own voice . Ironically , it was the Phoenicians who `` invented or at least perfected and transmitted a form of writing ( the alphabet ) that has influenced dozens of cultures including our own . '' As noted , the celebrated ancient books on agriculture written by Mago of Carthage survives only via quotations in Latin from several later Roman works .

However , unlike other retractable roof stadiums , Safeco Field has what is called a `` retractable umbrella '' . This is because when the roof is closed , the stadium is still open on the sides to the outside weather , so the Mariners can play outdoor baseball even in the rain . There is no need for heating or air - conditioning because it is just like an outdoor stadium . Owned and operated by the Washington State Major League Baseball Stadium Public Facilities District , it is the home stadium of the Seattle Mariners of Major League Baseball ( MLB ) and has a seating capacity of 47,715 for baseball . It is located in Seattle 's SoDo neighborhood , near the western terminus of Interstate 90 . The first game was played on July 15 , 1999 . During the 1990s , the suitability of the Mariners ' original stadium -- the Kingdome -- as a MLB facility came under doubt , and the team 's ownership group threatened to relocate the team . In September 1995 , King County voters defeated a ballot measure to secure public funding for a new baseball stadium . Shortly thereafter , the Mariners ' first appearance in the MLB postseason and their victory in the 1995 American League Division Series ( ALDS ) renewed a public desire to keep the team in town . As a result , the Washington State Legislature approved an alternate means of funding for the stadium with public money . The site for the stadium , just south of the Kingdome , was selected in September 1996 and construction began in March 1997 . Aside from the Mariners , Safeco Field is also used for amateur baseball events including the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association high school state championships and one Washington Huskies game per season . Major non-baseball events that have been held at Safeco Field include the 2001 Seattle Bowl ( the game attracted 30,144 ) , as well as WrestleMania XIX in 2003 which attracted the stadium 's record attendance of 54,097 . Naming rights to the stadium are owned by Seattle - based Safeco Insurance . Safeco reportedly paid $40 million to have its name on the stadium for 20 years . The naming rights will expire after the 2018 season , when it was announced on June 13 , 2017 , that Safeco would not renew the naming rights . The bonds issued to finance Safeco Field were retired on October 1 , 2011 , five years earlier than anticipated .

( formerly S. Atlantic Street ) to the south , S. Royal Brougham Way to the north ( S. Connecticut St. until 1979 ) , and BNSF railroad tracks to the east . The stadium is located near the western terminus of Interstate 90 . Parking is available at the stadium 's parking garage located across Edgar Martínez Drive , the CenturyLink Field garage to the North , as well as other privately operated lots in the area . Public transportation is available along the arterial streets surrounding the stadium . Additionally , the stadium is convenient to Sounder commuter rail service at nearby King Street Station . Safeco Field is also served by Sound Transit 's Central Link light rail line and local Metro bus routes via the nearby Stadium Station . History ( edit ) On March 30 , 1994 , King County executive Gary Locke appointed a task force to assess the need for a new baseball stadium to replace the rapidly deteriorating Kingdome . Many feared that the Mariners would leave Seattle if a new stadium was not built . In January 1995 , the 28 - member task force recommended to the King County Council that the public should be involved in the financing of the stadium . The task force concluded that a sales tax increase of . 01 % would be sufficient to fund the stadium . King County held a special election in September 1995 , asking the public for this sales tax increase . The measure was narrowly defeated . On October 14 , 1995 , a special session of the state legislature authorized a different funding package for a new stadium that included a food and beverage tax in King County restaurants and bars , car rental surcharge in King County , a ballpark admissions tax , a credit against the state sales tax , and sale of a special stadium license plate . Nine days later , the King County Council approved the funding package and established the Washington State Major League Baseball Stadium Public Facilities District to own the ballpark and oversee design and construction . Taxpayer suits opposing the legislative actions and the taxes failed in the courts . On September 9 , 1996 , the site was selected for the new stadium , just south of the Kingdome . In late fall , several members of the King County Council wrote a letter to the Seattle Mariners , stating that officials consider postponing construction and the opening of the ( then projected ) $384.5 - million stadium project . In response , Mariners ownership held a news conference stating that they would either sell the team , or move the team from Seattle . After a public outcry , the King County Council voted to reaffirm their cooperation with the Mariners in building a new stadium . Mariners ownership contributed $145 million to cover cost overruns . Safeco Field under construction in 1998 . The Kingdome is visible in the background . Construction officially began on March 8 , 1997 with a groundbreaking ceremony featuring Mariners star Ken Griffey , Jr . The construction , overseen by Chief Financial Officer Kevin Mather , continued until July 1999 . The first game in the new stadium was played on July 15 , 1999 against the San Diego Padres . The Padres won , 3 -- 2 . Before the stadium was initially christened , the naming rights to the stadium were sold for advertising . Seattle - based Safeco insurance company paid $40 million for the naming rights for the ballpark 's first 20 years . This will not be renewed and the 2018 season will be the final year under this name . When Ken Griffey , Jr. , returned to Safeco in 2007 with the Cincinnati Reds ( where he had been traded to after the 1999 season ) , he came to a hero 's welcome , receiving gifts from the Mariners organization , and fellow former players Jay Buhner and Edgar Martínez . They unveiled a new poster that declared Safeco Field `` The House That Griffey Built . '' Griffey , Jr. would return to the Mariners in 2009 after a short stint with the Chicago White Sox and retired in 2010 . The Mariners moved the fences at Safeco Field closer to home plate as of the 2013 season `` to create an environment that is fair for both hitters and pitchers , '' according to General Manager Jack Zduriencik . The centerfield scoreboard and ad panels were replaced with an 11,435 square foot board in the same renovation , becoming the largest among all stadium scoreboards in the major leagues . The remodeled field debuted on April 8 , 2013 between the Mariners and Houston Astros . Safeco had been considered one of the most pitcher - friendly ballparks in the majors since it opened , though the 2013 remodelling involved shrinking the field . After the 2017 season , the field underwent its first full overhaul since its opening ; the original surface had been in place since the stadium opened in 1999 . The infield and foul territory were redone in 2012 , but the outfield had never been replaced before the resodding . Work began on replacing the field ( turf , infield dirt and all ) on October 5 , 2017 , and was completed on November 10 . Features ( edit ) This section does not cite any sources .

( October 2012 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) View from high left field corner in July 2008 . Like most ballparks built from the 1990s onward , Safeco Field is a ' retro - modern ' style ballpark that incorporates many of the features of ballparks built in the 1950s and earlier with modern amenities . In contrast with the Kingdome and the other multi-purpose stadiums built primarily during the 1960s and 1970s , Safeco Field features a brick façade , an asymmetrical field dimension , a natural grass field , spectator sightlines more suited for baseball , and is surrounded by city streets , a railroad line , and buildings . On a modern note , the ballpark features a retractable roof , luxury suites , extensive food and beverage selection beyond traditional ballpark fare , and modern clubhouse amenities for players , as well as technology that allows spectators to monitor special game - time features with Nintendo DS receivers , and is fully ADA - accessible . Layout ( edit ) The stadium has four main gates open to all ticket holders during Mariners games , located at the southwest , northwest , northeast , and southeast corners . These are identified as Home Plate , Left Field , Center Field , and Right Field , respectively . Entry to all ticket holders is also available through the Mariners Team Store off 1st Avenue and at `` The ' Pen '' entry behind the bull pens in left field . Special entrances for media and holders of certain ticket levels are located on the southwest and south sides of the stadium . There are five main levels to the stadium : Field ( or Street ) , Main Concourse ( 100 level -- 20,634 seats ) , Club Level ( 200 level -- 4,585 seats ) , Suite Level ( 1,945 seats ) , and Upper Concourse ( 300 level -- 15,955 seats ) . Two bleacher sections are located above left field and below the center field scoreboard , with 3,706 seats . The Broadcast Center ( press box ) is located on the Club Level and sub-level between it and the Main Level . As the field is approximately at street level , entry into any of the main gates requires visitors to ascend a flight of stairs , escalator , or elevator to access the main concourse , with the exception of the Right Field Entry , which opens onto the main concourse . Stairs , escalators , elevators , and ramps located around the ballpark provide access to all levels .

Concession stands selling traditional ballpark fare are plentiful on the main and upper concourses . Food courts behind home plate on the main concourse , as well as in `` The ' Pen '' ( known as the Bullpen Market prior to a major 2011 remodel ) located on the street level inside the Center Field gate , sell items such as sushi , burritos , teriyaki , stir - fries , pad thai , garlic fries , crepes , health food , seafood , and barbecue . An extensive selection of beer can also be found in those locations , as well as a location on the upper concourse . You may order your food with a Nintendo DS app called Nintendo Fan Network . Several restaurants and food services are available exclusively for fans purchasing certain ticket levels : The Diamond Club is located on the field level behind home plate . Diamond Club seats are located in the first eight rows behind home plate ; holders of these seats are entitled to VIP parking in the Safeco Field garage , a private entry to the ballpark on the field level , and access to the Diamond Club Lounge with buffet and bar . The lounge is decorated with Babe Ruth memorabilia . Diamond Club seats are sold on a full - season , 20 - game , and single game basis . 70 group and individual suites occupy an entire level of the ballpark . Open only to holders of suite level tickets , each suite features a private wait staff and concierge service . Holders of suite level tickets are also entitled to a private entry to the ballpark . Suite level tickets are available on a full - season , partial season , or individual game basis . The Wells Fargo Terrace Club occupies another entire level of the ballpark . Open only to holders of Terrace Club seats and certain other ticket levels , the club features two lounges and wait service to each seat . As with suite level tickets , holders of Terrace Club seats are also entitled to a private entry to the ballpark . Terrace Club seats are also available on full - season , partial season , or individual game basis . The Hit it Here Café is located in right field , on the same level as the Terrace Club . Open to all visitors before game time on a first - come , first - served basis ( though season ticket holders may make reservations ) , the café is only open to holders of tickets in the café during games . Hit it Here Café tickets are only sold on an individual game basis . Retractable roof ( edit ) Retractable roof open , July 2008 Safeco Field has a unique retractable roof that only acts as an `` umbrella '' for the stands and field rather than forming a complete climate - controlled enclosure , as is the case with all other retractable roofs in Major League Baseball . Seattle 's relatively mild climate means the park rarely needs to be heated or cooled , but frequent precipitation necessitated a roof . The roof is sometimes closed , however , in dry weather when the temperature is particularly low . On cold nights , closing the roof helps prevent radiation heat loss . The only other covered baseball stadium in the world with permanent openings is the fixed - roof Seibu Dome in Tokorozawa , Saitama , Japan , home of the Saitama Seibu Lions . In the open position , the roof rests over the BNSF Railway tracks that bound the stadium to the east , with part of it hanging over the stands in right field . This has the effect of echoing the whistles from passing trains into the stadium . Train whistles were a frequent fixture of the Safeco Field experience initially , but abated significantly when an overpass was built for Royal Brougham Way , the street that bounds the stadium to the north which previously crossed the tracks . The roof consists of three major sections that extend into the closed position in a telescoping manner , with the two outer sections resting under the larger center section . Each section rests on a set of parallel tracks located on the north and south sides of the stadium , with the outer sections moving along the inner set of tracks , and the center section moving along the outer set . Each section is structurally independent ; i.e. , no section depends on another for structural stability . `` Welcome to Safeco Field , Seattle '' is painted on top of the center section , visible from aircraft whether the roof is open or closed . A lighted `` Safeco Field '' sign was added to the east side of the roof in 2007 , which aids in identification of the stadium from the freeways to the east . Each section is independently powered by electric motors that move the respective sections along the tracks . It is controlled from a central control room located under the center field scoreboard . Depending on wind and weather conditions , the roof takes approximately 10 minutes to move from the fully open to the fully closed position , and vice versa . The roof movement is nearly silent , blending in with the ambient noise typically present during a game . During normal operation , the movement of each section is governed by computers , with all three sections moving at the same time . During an emergency or maintenance operation , each section can be independently moved . A working spare motor and wheel assembly for the roof can be found inside the center field gate . In its present state , it serves to educate visitors on how the roof operates , but if needed , it can be used to replace a similar part on the roof should one become damaged or defective . On April 7 , 2013 , Total Pro Sports voted Safeco Field the 8th Best Place to Catch a Game in 2013 , mainly owing the award to the design of Safeco 's retractable roof . Ground rules concerning the roof ( edit ) Batted ball striking the roof or roof trusses : A ball striking the roof or roof truss in fair territory is judged fair or foul in relation to where it lands . A ball striking the roof or roof truss in foul territory is a foul ball , regardless of where it lands . ( During a game on April 18 , 2011 , Ryan Raburn of the visiting Detroit Tigers struck one of the trusses with a foul pop - up ; Raburn is the only batter to date to hit any part of the roof in this manner . ) A ball striking the roof or roof truss is still considered in flight , and the batter is out if legally caught by a fielder , regardless of where it struck . Movement of the roof : If the game starts with the roof open , it may be closed during the game if weather conditions warrant , and at the discretion of the home team . Play may continue during closure , unless the umpires determine it is necessary to stop play . If the game starts with the roof closed , it may be opened during the game if weather conditions warrant . Opening the roof can only start between innings , after notification of the umpire crew chief . The visiting team may challenge the decision to open the roof , but final decision over whether to open the roof lies with the crew chief . The roof may only be opened once during a game . Scoreboards ( edit ) Safeco Field features a manual scoreboard , a light emitting diode ( LED ) video display , the second largest HD video display scoreboard in MLB , a color LED out - of - town scoreboard , and LED ribbon boards along the First , Third , and Hit It Here Cafe Facade . The old - fashioned manually operated scoreboard is located in left field . Also , between left & left - center fields , suspended over both bullpens , is a color LED out - of - town scoreboard . In addition to scores , runners on base and counts are displayed . This scoreboard also displays pitcher information when a relief pitcher enters the game , identifies any pitchers that may be warming up , displays information such as an abbreviated box score of a selected out - of - town game , or statistical information such as season home run leaders . It also displays NHL , NFL and NBA scores during the parts of the baseball season that overlap with the regular season and / or playoffs of those sports . The new ( 2013 ) HD main scoreboard above the center field bleachers is 201 feet wide , over 11,000 square feet in area , the 2nd largest screen in use by any MLB team and the 25th largest video screen in the world . The board can be used either all at once ( for live action or video replays ) , or can be split into sections for displaying information such as statistics and advertisements . Hit it Here Cafe LED fascia display , which displays hitter and pitcher matchup statistics . Color LED scoreboards run along the Terrace Club fascia . These have full animation capability , but usually display Score and inning Batter information and count Outcome of previous at - bats of the current inning Pitcher name , pitch count , first - pitch data , and pitch speed . Time of day Advertising Additionally , television screens showing the local telecast of the game hang from the bottom of the Terrace Club level , for spectators seated in the last several rows of the main concourse seating areas , as well as those standing on the main concourse . Though fans in these areas have a full view of the field , their view of the scoreboards is obstructed by the overhang of the Terrace Club level . These screens display the content shown on the video board between innings or when the telecast is on a commercial break . Art in the park ( edit ) Safeco Field and its adjoining parking garage feature extensive public art displays , including : A chandelier made of 1,000 resin baseball bats above the home plate entry . A companion 27 - foot diameter compass rose mosaic at the home plate rotunda captures a number of elements in the history of baseball . `` Quilts '' depicting each MLB team logo , made from recycled metal including license plates from the respective teams ' states ( or the province of Ontario in the case of the Toronto Blue Jays , or the District of Columbia in the case of the Washington Nationals ) . Stainless steel cutouts of players in various poses while catching , batting , fielding , and pitching , integrated into the fences at the stadium 's four main gates . Sculptures depicting hands gripping baseballs for various types of pitches along the west facade of the garage . A 9 - foot - tall ( 2.7 m ) bronze baseball glove , `` The Mitt '' , that has become an icon for Safeco Field . `` The Defining Moment '' , a mural depicting Edgar Martínez 's famed `` The Double '' . Children 's Hospital Wishing Well which features a bronze statue of a child in batting position , and includes a geyser effect used at the beginning of games and when the opposing team hits a home run . Porcelain enamel on steel flag - mounted banner - panels depicting `` Positions of the Field '' . Baseball Museum of the Pacific Northwest ( edit ) The Baseball Museum of the Pacific Northwest pays homage to now - defunct professional baseball teams that played in Washington , Oregon , Idaho , Montana , and British Columbia before the establishment of the Mariners in 1977 . Additionally , it features hands - on displays explaining the composition of baseballs and bats , and the different types of gloves , as well as a replica outfield fence with props to allow fans to photograph themselves pretending to be outfielders . Mariners Hall of Fame ( edit ) Co-located with the Baseball Museum of the Pacific Northwest , the Mariners Hall of Fame features bronze plaques of the nine inducted members : Alvin Davis ( 1997 ) , Broadcaster Dave Niehaus ( 2000 ) , Jay Buhner ( 2004 ) , Edgar Martínez ( 2007 ) , Randy Johnson ( 2012 ) , Dan Wilson ( 2012 ) , Ken Griffey , Jr. ( 2013 ) , Lou Pinella ( 2014 ) and Jamie Moyer ( 2015 ) . Those plaques describe their contributions to the franchise , as well as murals and television screens showing highlights of their careers with the Mariners . Dave Niehaus statue ( edit ) A bronze statue of late Seattle Mariners broadcaster Dave Niehaus was unveiled Friday September 16 , 2011 at Safeco Field . The statue captures the Hall of Fame broadcaster who broadcast 5,284 Mariners games over 34 seasons ( 1977 -- 2010 ) at a desk , behind a microphone , wearing headphones with his Mariners scorebook in front of him . His scorebook is opened to the box score for Game 5 of the 1995 American League Division Series , when Edgar Martínez hit `` The Double '' . There is an empty seat next to the statue , so fans can sit next to Dave and pose for photos . Dave 's longtime broadcast partner Rick Rizzs presided over a private ceremony to unveil the statue . The Dave Niehaus Broadcast Center is located on the Club Level behind home plate . When Niehaus died , his headset and microphone were placed by his empty seat in the Broadcast Center as a tribute . Other features ( edit ) The flagship Mariners Team Store is located on the west side of the stadium . The first level of the store , on the street level , sells a comprehensive assortment of Mariners merchandise , while the upper level , on the main concourse , displays game - used items for sale , as well as a custom jersey embroidery station . Other stores include the Kids ' Clubhouse at the northeast corner on the main concourse , a walk - in store at the southwest corner on the upper concourse , a store near the bridge from the parking garage on the `` club '' ( 200 ) level , and kiosks throughout the ballpark . Children 's Hospital Playfield is a playground for children located at the northeast corner of the stadium on the main concourse . Also located in this area is `` Moose 's Munchies '' , a concession stand selling ballpark fare in child - sized portions . The Moose Den , located on the main concourse near the Children 's Hospital Playfield , is a meet - and - greet area for the Mariner Moose , the team 's mascot . An analog clock is integrated into the Mariners ' compass rose logo above the left field bleachers . Free wi - fi was added prior to the 2015 season . Tours ( edit ) Safeco Field also gives walking tours of the stadium for $12 as of April 2017 . Departing from the main Team Store , the tour includes information about the stadium not generally provided at games , as well as entry into areas not open to the general public during games , including the visitors ' clubhouse , playing field and dugouts , Dave Niehaus Broadcast Center ( press box ) , and a luxury suite .

( March 2013 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) Time in the United States , by law , is divided into nine standard time zones covering the states and its possessions , with most of the United States observing daylight saving time ( DST ) for approximately the spring , summer , and fall months . The time zone boundaries and DST observance are regulated by the Department of Transportation . Official and highly precise timekeeping services ( clocks ) are provided by two federal agencies : the National Institute of Standards and Technology ( NIST ) ( an agency of the Department of Commerce ) ; and its military counterpart , the United States Naval Observatory ( USNO ) . The clocks run by these services are kept synchronized with each other as well as with those of other international timekeeping organizations . It is the combination of the time zone and daylight saving rules , along with the timekeeping services , which determines the legal civil time for any U.S. location at any moment . Map of U.S. time zones between April 2 , 2006 , and March 11 , 2007 . As of November 2007 , 5 counties in Indiana returned to the Eastern time zone .

Dawn and dusk occur at different times but time differences between distant locations were barely noticeable prior to the 19th century because of long travel times and the lack of long - distance instant communications prior to the development of the telegraph . The use of local solar time became increasingly awkward as railways and telecommunications improved . American railroads maintained many different time zones during the late 1800s . Each train station set its own clock making it difficult to coordinate train schedules and confusing passengers . Time calculation became a serious problem for people travelling by train ( sometimes hundreds of miles in a day ) , according to the Library of Congress . Every city in the United States used a different time standard so there were more than 300 local sun times to choose from . Time zones were therefore a compromise , relaxing the complex geographic dependence while still allowing local time to be approximate with mean solar time . Railroad managers tried to address the problem by establishing 100 railroad time zones , but this was only a partial solution to the problem . Operators of the new railroad lines needed a new time plan that would offer a uniform train schedule for departures and arrivals . Four standard time zones for the continental United States were introduced at noon on November 18 , 1883 , when the telegraph lines transmitted time signals to all major cities . In October 1884 , the International Meridian Conference at Washington DC adopted a proposal which stated that the prime meridian for longitude and timekeeping should be one that passes through the centre of the transit instrument at the Greenwich Observatory in the United Kingdom ( UK ) . The conference therefore established the Greenwich Meridian as the prime meridian and Greenwich Mean Time ( GMT ) as the world 's time standard . The US time - zone system grew from this , in which all zones referred back to GMT on the prime meridian . From GMT to UTC ( edit ) GMT was superseded as the international civil time standard by Coordinated Universal Time ( UTC ) in 1960 , when the International Radio Consultative Committee formalized the concept of Coordinated Universal Time , abbreviated as UTC . It is , within about 1 second , mean solar time at 0 ° . It does not observe daylight saving time . It is one of several closely related successors to Greenwich Mean Time ( GMT ) . For most purposes , UTC is considered interchangeable with GMT , but GMT is no longer precisely defined by the scientific community . United States time zones ( edit ) Standard time zones in the United States are currently defined at the federal level by law 15 USC § 260 . The federal law also establishes the transition dates and times at which daylight saving time occurs , if observed . It is ultimately the authority of the Secretary of Transportation , in coordination with the states , to determine which regions will observe which of the standard time zones and if they will observe daylight saving time . As of August 9 , 2007 , the standard time zones are defined in terms of hourly offsets from UTC . Prior to this they were based upon the mean solar time at several meridians 15 ° apart west of Greenwich ( GMT ) . Only the full - time zone names listed below are official ; abbreviations are by common use conventions , and duplicated elsewhere in the world for different time zones . The United States uses nine standard time zones . As defined by US law they are : The Atlantic standard time zone The Eastern standard time zone The Central standard time zone The Mountain standard time zone The Pacific standard time zone The Alaska standard time zone The Hawaii -- Aleutian standard time zone The Samoa standard time zone The Chamorro standard time zone View the standard time zone boundaries here .

The Central standard time zone : ( Zone S ) , which comprises roughly the Gulf Coast , Mississippi Valley , and Great Plains . The Mountain standard time zone : ( Zone T ) , which comprises roughly the states and portions of states that include the Rocky Mountains . The Pacific standard time zone : ( Zone U ) , which comprises roughly the states on the Pacific coast , plus Nevada and the Idaho panhandle . Zones used in States beyond the contiguous U.S. ( edit ) The Alaska standard time zone : ( AKST ; UTC − 09 : 00 ; Zone V ) , which comprises most of the state of Alaska . The Hawaii - Aleutian standard time zone : ( or unofficially Hawaii Standard Time : HST ) ( HAST ; UTC − 10 : 00 ; zone W ) , which includes Hawaii and most of the length of the Aleutian Islands chain ( west of 169 ° 30 ′ W ) . Zones outside the States ( edit ) The Atlantic standard time zone : ( AST ; UTC − 04 : 00 ; Zone Q ) , which comprises Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands . The Samoa standard time zone ( SST ; UTC − 11 : 00 ; Zone X ) , which comprises American Samoa . The Chamorro standard time zone : ( ChST ; UTC + 10 : 00 ; Zone K ) , which comprises Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands . Minor outlying Islands ( edit ) Some United States Minor Outlying Islands are outside the time zones defined by 15 U.S.C. § 260 and exist in waters defined by Nautical time . In practice , military crews may simply use Zulu time ( UTC ± 00 : 00 ) when on these islands . Baker Island and Howland Island are in UTC − 12 , while Wake Island is in UTC + 12 : 00 . Because they exist on opposite sides of the International Date Line , it can , for example , be noon Thursday on Baker and Howland islands while simultaneously being noon Friday on Wake Island . Other outlying islands include Jarvis Island , Midway Atoll , Palmyra Atoll , and Kingman Reef ( UTC − 11 : 00 ) ; Johnston Atoll ( UTC − 10 : 00 ) ; and Navassa Island , Bajo Nuevo Bank , and Serranilla Bank ( UTC − 05 : 00 ) . Antarctic research stations ( edit ) See also : Time in Antarctica In Antarctica , the US research facility Palmer Station is in UTC − 03 : 00 , while McMurdo Station and Amundsen -- Scott South Pole Station use UTC + 12 : 00 in order to coordinate with their main supply base in New Zealand .

Daylight saving time ( edit ) Main article : Daylight saving time in the United States The Energy Policy Act of 2005 extended daylight saving time ( DST ) for an additional month beginning in 2007 . The start of DST now occurs on the second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November . Clocks will be set ahead one hour at 2 a.m. on the following start dates and set back one hour at 2 a.m. on these ending dates : Year Start date Ending date 2006 April 2 October 29 2007 March 11 November 4 2008 March 9 November 2 2009 March 8 November 1 March 14 November 7 2011 March 13 November 6 2012 March 11 November 4 2013 March 10 November 3 2014 March 9 November 2 2015 March 8 November 1 2016 March 13 November 6 2017 March 12 November 5 2018 March 11 November 4 2019 March 10 November 3 2020 March 8 November 1 In response to the Uniform Time Act of 1966 , each state of the US has officially chosen to apply one of two rules over its entire territory : Most use the standard time for their zone ( or zones , where a state is divided between two zones ) , except for using daylight saving time during the summer months . Originally this ran from the last Sunday in April until the last Sunday in October . Two subsequent amendments , in 1986 and 2005 , have shifted these days so that daylight saving time now runs from the second Sunday in March until the first Sunday in November . Arizona time zones Arizona and Hawaii use standard time throughout the year . However : The Navajo Nation observes DST throughout its entire territory , including the portion that lies in Arizona . But the Hopi Nation , which is entirely surrounded by the Navajo Nation and is entirely in Arizona , does not observe DST . ( See map inset right . ) In 2005 , Indiana passed legislation which took effect on April 2 , 2006 , that placed the entire state on daylight saving time ( see Time in Indiana ) . Before then , Indiana officially used standard time year - round , with the following exceptions : The portions of Indiana that were on Central Time observed daylight saving time . Also , some Indiana counties near Cincinnati and Louisville were on Eastern Time , but did ( unofficially ) observe DST .

Until 2003 , the Service was part of the U.S. Department of the Treasury , as the agency was originally founded to combat the then - widespread counterfeiting of U.S. currency . The U.S. Secret Service is tasked with two distinct and critical national security missions : Investigative Mission -- The investigative mission of the USSS is to safeguard the payment and financial systems of the United States from a wide range of financial and electronic - based crimes . Financial investigations include counterfeit U.S. currency , bank & financial institution fraud , mail fraud , wire fraud , illicit financing operations , and major conspiracies . Electronic investigations include cybercrime , network intrusions , identity theft , access device fraud , credit card fraud , and intellectual property crimes . The Secret Service is a key member of the FBI 's Joint Terrorism Task Force ( JTTF ) which investigates and combats terrorism on a national and international scale , as well as of the High Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas ( HIDTA ) task force which seeks to reduce and eliminate drug trafficking in critical regions of the United States . The Service also investigates missing and exploited children and is a core partner of the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children ( NCMEC ) . Protective Mission -- The protective mission of the USSS is to ensure the safety of the President of the United States , the Vice President of the United States , the President 's and Vice President 's immediate families , former presidents , their spouses , and their minor children under the age of 16 , major presidential and vice presidential candidates and their spouses , and foreign heads of state . The USSS also provides physical security for the White House Complex , the neighboring Treasury Department building , the Vice President 's residence , and all foreign diplomatic missions in Washington , D.C. The protective mission includes protective operations to coordinate manpower and logistics with state and local law enforcement , protective advances to conduct site and venue assessments for protectees , and protective intelligence to investigate all manners of threats made against protectees . The Secret Service is the lead agency in charge of the planning , coordination , and implementation of security operations for events designated as National Special Security Events ( NSSEs ) . As part of the Service 's mission of preventing an incident before it occurs , the agency relies on meticulous advance work and threat assessments developed by its Intelligence Division to identify potential risks to protectees . The Secret Service 's initial responsibility was to investigate the counterfeiting of U.S. currency , which was rampant following the American Civil War . The agency then evolved into the United States ' first domestic intelligence and counterintelligence agency . Many of the agency 's missions were later taken over by subsequent agencies such as the Federal Bureau of Investigation ( FBI ) , Central Intelligence Agency ( CIA ) , Drug Enforcement Administration ( DEA ) , Bureau of Alcohol , Tobacco , Firearms and Explosives ( ATF ) , and IRS Criminal Investigation Division ( IRS - CI ) .

Secret Service agents protecting President George W. Bush in 2002 . Secret Service and FBI agents investigate the Boston Marathon bombing . The Secret Service is mandated by Congress to carry out a unique dual mission : safeguarding the financial and critical infrastructure of the United States , and protecting the nation 's leaders . The two core missions of investigations and protection synergize with the other , providing crucial benefits to special agents during the course of their careers . Skills developed during the course of investigations which are also used in an agent 's protective duties include but are not limited to : Proficiency in analyzing handwriting and forgery techniques being applied in protective investigations of handwritten letters and suspicious package threats . Expertise in investigating electronic and financial crimes being applied in protective investigations of threats made against the nation 's leaders on the Internet . Tactical operation ( i.e. surveillance , arrests , and search warrants ) and law enforcement writing ( i.e. affidavits , after action reports , and operations plans ) skills being applied to both investigative and protective duties . Partnerships that are created between field offices and local law enforcement during the course of investigations being used to gather both protective intelligence and in coordinating protection events . The Secret Service 's primary investigative mission is to protect the payment and financial systems of the United States from a wide range of financial and electronic - based crimes including counterfeit U.S. currency , bank & financial institution fraud , illicit financing operations , cybercrime , identity theft , intellectual property crimes , and any other violations that may affect the United States economy and financial systems . The agency 's key focus is on large , high - dollar economic impact cases involving organized criminal groups . Financial criminals include embezzling bank employees , armed robbers at automatic teller machines , heroin traffickers , and criminal organizations that commit bank fraud on a global scale . The USSS plays a leading role in facilitating relationships between other law enforcement entities , the private sector , and academia . The Service maintains the Electronic Crimes Task Forces , which focus on identifying and locating international cyber criminals connected to cyber intrusions , bank fraud , data breaches , and other computer - related crimes . Additionally , the Secret Service runs the National Computer Forensics Institute ( NCFI ) , which provides law enforcement officers , prosecutors , and judges with cyber training and information to combat cybercrime . Protection of the nation 's highest elected leaders and other government officials remains the other key mission of the United States Secret Service . After the 1901 assassination of President William McKinley , Congress also directed the Secret Service to protect the President of the United States . The Secret Service is authorized by law to protect : The President , Vice President ( or other officer next in the order of succession to the Office of President , should the Vice Presidency be vacant ) , President - elect and Vice President - elect The immediate families of the above individuals Former Presidents and their spouses for their lifetimes ( except when the spouse divorces or remarries ) , under the Former Presidents Act . From 1997 until 2013 , legislation was in place limiting Secret Service protection to former Presidents and their spouses to a period of 10 years from the date the former President leaves office . President Barack Obama signed legislation on January 10 , 2013 , reversing this limit and reinstating lifetime protection . The widow or widower of a former President who dies in office or dies within a year of leaving office for a period of one year after the President 's death ( the Secretary of Homeland Security can extend the protection time ) Children of former Presidents until age 16 or 10 years after the presidency Former Vice Presidents , their spouses , and their children under 16 years of age , for up to 6 months from the date the former Vice President leaves office ( the Secretary of Homeland Security can extend the protection time ) Visiting heads of states or governments and their spouses traveling with them Other distinguished foreign visitors to the United States and official representatives of the United States performing special missions abroad , as directed by the President Major presidential and vice presidential candidates The spouses of major presidential and vice presidential candidates ( within 120 days of a general presidential election ) Other individuals as designated per executive order of the President National Special Security Events , when designated as such by the Secretary of Homeland Security Any of these individuals may decline Secret Service protection except the President , the Vice President ( or other officer next in the order of succession to the Office of President ) , the President - elect , and the Vice President - elect . When Hillary Clinton became Secretary of State in 2009 , the Secret Service continued to protect her at home ; however the Diplomatic Security Service protected her while she was performing her duties as the Secretary of State , including foreign travel . The Secret Service investigates thousands of incidents each year of individuals threatening the President of the United States . In the face of budget pressure , hiring challenges and some high - profile lapses in its protective service role in 2014 , the Brookings Institution and some members of Congress are asking whether the agency 's focus should shift more to the protective mission , leaving more of its original mission to other agencies . History ( edit ) Early years ( edit ) Logo of the United States Secret Service With a reported one third of the currency in circulation being counterfeit at the time , the Secret Service was created on July 5 , 1865 in Washington , D.C. , to suppress counterfeit currency . Chief William P. Wood was sworn in by Secretary of the Treasury Hugh McCulloch . It was commissioned in Washington , D.C. as the `` Secret Service Division '' of the Department of the Treasury with the mission of suppressing counterfeiting . The legislation creating the agency was on Abraham Lincoln 's desk the night he was assassinated . At the time , the only other federal law enforcement agencies were the United States Park Police , the U.S. Post Office Department 's Office of Instructions and Mail Depredations ( now known as the United States Postal Inspection Service ) , and the U.S. Marshals Service . The Marshals did not have the manpower to investigate all crime under federal jurisdiction , so the Secret Service began to investigate everything from murder to bank robbery to illegal gambling . After the assassination of President William McKinley in 1901 , Congress informally requested that the Secret Service provide presidential protection . A year later , the Secret Service assumed full - time responsibility for presidential protection . In 1902 , William Craig became the first Secret Service agent to die while serving , in a road accident while riding in the presidential carriage . The Secret Service was the first U.S. domestic intelligence and counterintelligence agency . Domestic intelligence collection and counterintelligence responsibilities were vested in the Federal Bureau of Investigation ( FBI ) upon the FBI 's creation in 1908 . The Secret Service assisted in arresting Japanese American leaders and in the Japanese American internment during World War II . The U.S. Secret Service is not a part of the U.S. Intelligence Community . 20th century ( edit ) Taft assassination attempt ( edit ) In 1909 , President William H. Taft agreed to meet with Mexican President Porfirio Díaz in El Paso , Texas and Ciudad Juárez , Mexico , the first meeting between a U.S. and a Mexican president and also the first time an American president visited Mexico . But the historic summit resulted in serious assassination threats and other security concerns for the then small Secret Service , so the Texas Rangers , 4,000 U.S. and Mexican troops , BOI agents , U.S. marshals , and an additional 250 private security detail led by Frederick Russell Burnham , the celebrated scout , were all called in by Chief John Wilkie to provide added security . On October 16 , the day of the summit , Burnham discovered a man holding a concealed palm pistol standing at the El Paso Chamber of Commerce building along the procession route . Burnham signaled a Texas Ranger , Private C.R. Moore , and the two men captured and disarmed the assassin within only a few feet of Díaz and Taft , preventing the shooting of both Presidents . 1950s ( edit ) In 1950 , President Harry S. Truman was residing in Blair House while the White House , across the street , was undergoing renovations . On November 1 , 1950 , two Puerto Rican nationalists , Oscar Collazo and Griselio Torresola , approached Blair House with the intent to assassinate President Truman . Collazo and Torresola opened fire on Private Leslie Coffelt and other White House Police officers . Though mortally wounded by three shots from a 9 mm German Luger to his chest and abdomen , Private Coffelt returned fire , killing Torresola with a single shot to his head . As of 2017 , Coffelt is the only member of the Secret Service killed while protecting a US president against an assassination attempt ( Special Agent Tim McCarthy stepped in front of President Ronald Reagan during the assassination attempt of March 30 , 1981 , and took a bullet to the abdomen but made a full recovery ) . Collazo was also shot , but survived his injuries and served 29 years in prison before returning to Puerto Rico in late 1979 . 1960s ( edit ) In 1968 , as a result of Robert F. Kennedy 's assassination , Congress authorized protection of major presidential and vice presidential candidates and nominees . In 1965 and 1968 , Congress also authorized lifetime protection of the spouses of deceased presidents unless they remarry and of the children of former presidents until age 16 . 1980s ( edit ) Secret Service analyst examining counterfeit documents . The Secret Service Presidential Protective Division safeguards the President of the United States and his immediate family . They work with other federal , state , and local law enforcement agencies and the military to safeguard the President when he travels in Air Force One , Marine One and by limousine in motorcades . Although the most visible role of the Secret Service today , personal protection is an anomaly in the responsibilities of an agency focused on fraud and counterfeiting . In 1984 , the US Congress passed the Comprehensive Crime Control Act , which extended the Secret Service 's jurisdiction over credit card fraud and computer fraud . 1990s ( edit ) In 1990 , the Secret Service initiated Operation Sundevil , which they originally intended as a sting against malicious hackers , allegedly responsible for disrupting telephone services across the entire United States . The operation , which was later described by Bruce Sterling in his book The Hacker Crackdown , affected a great number of people unrelated to hacking , and led to no convictions . The Secret Service , however , was sued and required to pay damages . In 1994 and 1995 , it ran an undercover sting called Operation Cybersnare . The Secret Service has concurrent jurisdiction with the FBI over certain violations of federal computer crime laws . They have created 24 Electronic Crimes Task Forces ( ECTFs ) across the United States . These task forces are partnerships between the Service , federal / state and local law enforcement , the private sector and academia aimed at combating technology - based crimes . In 1998 , President Bill Clinton signed Presidential Decision Directive 62 , which established National Special Security Events ( NSSE ) . That directive made the Secret Service responsible for security at designated events . In 1999 , the United States Secret Service Memorial Building was dedicated in DC , granting the agency its first headquarters . Prior to this , the agency 's different departments were based in office space around the DC area . 21st century ( edit ) 2000s ( edit ) September 11 attacks ( edit ) The New York City Field office was located at 6 World Trade Center . Immediately after the World Trade Center was attacked as part of the September 11 attacks , Special Agents and other New York Field office employees were among the first to respond with first aid . Sixty - seven Special Agents in New York City , at and near the New York Field Office , helped to set up triage areas and evacuate the towers . One Secret Service employee , Master Special Officer Craig Miller , died during the rescue efforts . On August 20 , 2002 , Director Brian L. Stafford awarded the Director 's Valor Award to employees who assisted in the rescue attempts . Domestic expansion ( edit ) Secret Service Electronic Crimes Task Force ( ECTF ) . Secret Service Asset Forfeiture and Money Laundering Task Force ( AFMLTF ) . Effective March 1 , 2003 , the Secret Service transferred from the Treasury to the newly established Department of Homeland Security . The USA Patriot Act , signed into law by President George W. Bush on October 26 , 2001 , mandated the Secret Service to establish a nationwide network of ECTFs in addition to the one already active in New York . As such , this mandate expanded on the agency 's first ECTF -- the New York Electronic Crimes Task Force , formed in 1995 -- which brought together federal , state and local law enforcement , prosecutors , private - industry companies , and academia . These bodies collectively provide necessary support and resources to field investigations that meet any one of the following criteria : significant economic or community impact ; participation of organized criminal groups involving multiple districts or transnational organizations ; or use of schemes involving new technology . The network prioritizes investigations that meet the following criteria : Significant economic or community impact , Participation of multiple - district or transnational organized criminal groups , Use of new technology as a means to commit crime . Investigations conducted by ECTFs include crimes such as computer generated counterfeit currency ; bank fraud ; virus and worm proliferation ; access device fraud ; telecommunications fraud ; Internet threats ; computer system intrusions and cyberattacks ; phishing / spoofing ; assistance with Internet - related child pornography and exploitation ; and identity theft . The network includes ECTFs in the following 28 U.S. cities : Atlanta Baltimore Birmingham Boston Buffalo Charlotte Chicago Cleveland Columbia Dallas Houston Kansas City Las Vegas Los Angeles Louisville Memphis Miami Minneapolis New Orleans New York / New Jersey Oklahoma City Orlando Philadelphia Pittsburgh San Francisco Seattle St. Louis Washington , D.C. International expansion ( edit ) Secret Service Cyber Intelligence Center ( CIS ) . On July 6 , 2009 , the U.S. Secret Service expanded its fight on cybercrime by creating the first European Electronic Crime Task Force , based on the successful U.S. domestic model , through a memorandum of understanding with Italian police and postal officials . Over a year later , on August 9 , 2010 , the agency expanded its European involvement by creating its second overseas ECTF in the United Kingdom . Both task forces are said to concentrate on a wide range of `` computer - based criminal activity , '' including : Identity theft Network intrusions Other computer - related crimes affecting financial and other critical infrastructures . The overseas network includes ECTFs in the following European cities : European Electronic Crime Task Force -- Rome , Italy London , United Kingdom 2010s ( edit ) As of 2010 , the Service had over 6,500 employees : 3,200 Special Agents , 1,300 Uniformed Division Officers , and 2,000 technical and administrative employees . Special agents serve on protective details and investigate financial , cyber , and homeland security - related crimes . In September 2014 , the United States Secret Service came under criticism following two high - profile incidents involving intruders at the White House . One such intruder entered the East Room of the White House through an unlocked door . Another incident involved a violation of procedure in which an armed security guard for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention rode in the same elevator as President Barack Obama during a visit to that agency 's headquarters in Atlanta , Georgia , to discuss U.S. response to the Ebola virus epidemic in West Africa . The guard used his phone to record a video of Obama and refused to comply with a request to stop . The guard had been arrested multiple times in the past , but had never been convicted of a crime . Attacks on Presidents ( edit ) Main article : List of United States presidential assassination attempts and plots Secret Service agents in response to the assassination attempt of Ronald Reagan by John Hinckley , Jr. on March 30 , 1981 . Secret Service agents guard President George W. Bush in 2008 . Since the 1960s , Presidents John F. Kennedy ( killed ) , Gerald Ford ( twice attacked , but uninjured ) and Ronald Reagan ( seriously wounded ) have been attacked while appearing in public . Agents on scene though not injured during attacks on Presidents include William Greer and Roy Kellerman . One of the agents was Robert DeProspero , the Special Agent In Charge ( SAIC ) of Reagan 's Presidential Protective Division ( PPD ) from January 1982 to April 1985 . DeProspero was deputy to Jerry Parr , the SAIC of PPD during the Reagan assassination attempt on March 30 , 1981 . The Kennedy assassination spotlighted the bravery of two Secret Service agents . First , an agent protecting Mrs. Kennedy , Clint Hill , was riding in the car directly behind the presidential limousine when the attack began . While the shooting continued , Hill leapt from the running board of the car he was riding on and jumped onto the back of the President 's moving car and guided Mrs. Kennedy from the trunk back into the rear seat of the car . He then shielded the President and the First Lady with his body until the car arrived at the hospital . Rufus Youngblood was riding in the vice-presidential car . When the shots were fired , he vaulted over the front seat and threw his body over Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson . That evening , Johnson called Secret Service Chief James J. Rowley and cited Youngblood 's bravery . Youngblood would later recall some of this in his memoir , Twenty Years in the Secret Service . The period following the Kennedy assassination was the most difficult in the modern history of the agency . Press reports indicated that morale among the agents was `` low '' for months following the assassination . The agency overhauled its procedures in the wake of the Kennedy killing . Training , which until that time had been confined largely to `` on - the - job '' efforts , was systematized and regularized . The Reagan assassination attempt also highlighted the bravery of several Secret Service agents , particularly agent Tim McCarthy , who spread his stance to protect Reagan as six bullets were being fired by the would - be assassin , John Hinckley , Jr . McCarthy survived a . 22 - caliber round in the abdomen . For his bravery , McCarthy received the NCAA Award of Valor in 1982 . Jerry Parr , the agent who pushed President Reagan into the limousine , and made the critical decision to divert the presidential motorcade to George Washington University Hospital instead of returning to the White House , was also honored with U.S. Congress commendations for his actions that day . After the near - successful assassination attempt on Ronald Reagan , it was clear that the Secret Service needed to increase its efficiency to protect the President . Significant investigations ( edit ) Arrest and indictment of Max Ray Butler , co-founder of the Carders Market carding website . Butler was indicted by a federal grand jury in Pittsburgh , Pennsylvania , after his September 5 , 2007 arrest , on wire fraud and identity theft charges . According to the indictment , Butler hacked over the Internet into computers at financial institutions and credit card processing centers and sold the tens of thousands of credit card numbers that he acquired in the process . Operation Firewall : In October 2004 , 28 suspects -- located across eight U.S. states and six countries -- were arrested on charges of identity theft , computer fraud , credit - card fraud , and conspiracy . Nearly 30 national and foreign field offices of the U.S. Secret Service , including the newly established national ECTFs , and countless local enforcement agencies from around the globe , were involved in this operation . Collectively , the arrested suspects trafficked in at least 1.7 million stolen credit card numbers , which amounted to $4.3 million of losses to financial institutions . However , authorities estimated that prevented loss to the industry was in the hundreds of millions of dollars . The operation , which started in July 2003 and lasted for more than a year , led investigators to identify three cybercriminal groups : Shadowcrew , Carderplanet , and Darkprofits . Arrest and indictment of Albert `` Segvec '' Gonzalez and 11 individuals ; three U.S. citizens , one from Estonia , three from Ukraine , two from the People 's Republic of China , one from Belarus , and one known only by an online alias . They were arrested on August 5 , 2008 , for the theft and sale of more than 40 million credit and debit card numbers from major U.S. retailers , including TJX Companies , BJ 's Wholesale Club , OfficeMax , Boston Market , Barnes & Noble , Sports Authority , Forever 21 , and DSW . Gonzalez , the main organizer of the scheme , was charged with computer fraud , wire fraud , access device fraud , aggravated identity theft , and conspiracy for his leading role in the crime .

The Secret Service special agent position is highly competitive . In 2011 , the Service accepted less than 1 % of its 15,600 special agent applicants . While the Secret Service has always been a popular career path for former military and law enforcement personnel , the Service seeks to hire agents from a diverse range of backgrounds in fulfilling its dual mission , including accountants , lawyers , scientists , engineers , and foreign language specialists . At a minimum , a prospective agent must be a U.S. citizen , possess a current valid driver 's license , be in excellent health and physical condition , possess visual acuity no worse than 20 / 60 uncorrected , correctable to 20 / 20 in each eye , and be between the ages of 21 and 37 at the time of appointment . However , preference eligible veterans may apply after age 37 . In 2009 , the Office of Personnel Management issued implementation guidance on the Isabella v. Department of State court decision : OPM Letter . Prospective agents must also qualify for a TS / SCI ( Top Secret / Sensitive Compartmented Information ) clearance , and undergo an extensive background investigation , to include in - depth interviews , drug screening , medical diagnosis , and full - scope polygraph examination . Secret Service agent trainees at the James J. Rowley Training Center ( RTC ) . Special agents receive training in two locations , totaling approximately 7 months . The first phase , the Criminal Investigator Training Program ( CITP ) is conducted at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Centers ( FLETC ) at Glynco , GA , lasting approximately 12 weeks . The second phase , the Special Agent Training Course ( SATC ) is conducted at the Secret Service Academy , James J. Rowley Training Center ( JJRTC ) , just outside Washington , D.C in Laurel , Maryland , lasting approximately 18 weeks . Secret Service agent trainees practice executing a search warrant . A typical special agent career path , depending upon performance and promotions that affect individual assignments , begins with the first six to eight years on the job assigned to a field office . Applicants are directed to list their office location preference during the application process , and upon receiving a final job offer , usually have several locations to choose from . After their field office experience , agents are usually transferred to a protective assignment where they will stay for three to five years . Following their protective assignment , many agents return to a field office for the rest of their careers , or opt for a headquarters based assignment located in Washington , D.C. During their careers , agents also have the opportunity to work overseas in one of the agency 's international field offices . This typically requires foreign language training to ensure language proficiency when working alongside the agency 's foreign law enforcement counterparts . Special agents are hired at either the GL - 07 or GL - 09 grade level , depending on individual qualifications and / or education . Agents are eligible for promotion on a yearly basis , from GL - 07 , to GL - 09 , to GS - 11 , to GS - 12 , to GS - 13 ( GL - 08 and GS - 10 grade levels are skipped ) . The full performance grade level for a journeyman agent is GS - 13 , which a GL - 07 and GL - 09 agent may reach in as little as four and three years respectively . GS - 13 agents are eligible for competitive promotion to supervisory agent positions , which compasses the GS - 14 , GS - 15 , and SES grade levels . GS - 13 agents who wish to remain as senior field agents continue to advance the GS - 13 step level , capping at GS - 13 Step - 10 . Special agents also receive Law Enforcement Availability Pay ( LEAP ) , a type of premium overtime pay which provides them with an additional 25 % bonus pay on top of their salary , as agents are required to work an average workweek of 50 hours as opposed to 40 . Therefore , an agent living in the Greater New York City area will earn an annual salary of approximately $65,733 ( GL - 07 ) , $74,850 ( GL - 09 ) , $87,639 ( GS - 11 ) , $105,044 ( GS - 12 ) , $124,909 ( GS - 13 ) , $147,606 ( GS - 14 ) , and $164,200 ( GS - 15 ) . Due to the nature of their work and unique among their federal law enforcement counterparts ( e.g. FBI , DEA , ATF , ICE ) , Secret Service agents are regularly eligible for scheduled overtime pay ( SOT pay ) in addition to LEAP for hours they work beyond 50 per week , and enjoy a raised statutory pay cap of $189,600 per year ( Level II of the Executive Schedule ) as opposed to $164,200 per year ( Level IV of the Executive Schedule ) . Uniformed Division officer ( edit ) Main article : United States Secret Service Uniformed Division Secret Service officer and his police dog as part of the Emergency Response Team ( ERT ) . The Secret Service Uniformed Division is a security police similar to the U.S. Capitol Police or DHS Federal Protective Service and is in charge of protecting the physical White House grounds and foreign diplomatic missions in the Washington , D.C. area . Established in 1922 as the White House Police , this organization was fully integrated into the Secret Service in 1930 . In 1970 , the protection of foreign diplomatic missions was added to the force 's responsibilities , and its name was changed to the Executive Protective Service . The name United States Secret Service Uniformed Division was adopted in 1977 . Secret Service Uniformed Division officers provide protection for the White House Complex , the Vice President 's residence , the main Treasury Building and Annex , and foreign diplomatic missions and embassies in the Washington , D.C. , area . Additionally , Uniformed Division officers travel in support of presidential , vice presidential and foreign head of state government missions . Officers may , as their careers progress , be selected to participate in one of several specialized units , including the : Canine Unit : Performing security sweeps and responding to bomb threats and suspicious packages . Emergency Response Team : Providing a coordinated tactical response for the White House and other protected facilities . Counter-sniper Team : Utilizing observation , sighting equipment and high - performance weapons to provide a secure environment for protectees . Motorcade Support Unit : Providing motorcycle tactical support for official movements of motorcades . Crime Scene Search Unit : Photographing , collecting and processing physical and latent evidence . Office of Training : Serving as firearms and classroom instructors or recruiters . Special Operations Section : Handling special duties and functions at the White House Complex , including conducting the daily congressional and public tours of the White House . Special officer ( edit ) Secret Service special officers ( not to be confused with Uniformed Division Officers ) are federal agents who work within the Special Agent Division and perform a wide range of security functions and support assignments as part of the protective mission for the Secret Service . Whereas special agents alternate between protection and investigative assignments , special officers are hired only to work protection details . They must have a familiarity with all phases of protective responsibilities sufficient to assist in protective movements , cover designated security posts and drive protective vehicles . Assignments may include Maintaining designated protective security posts that control movement of persons into and around multiple Secret Service facilities and associated areas Inspecting all operational , safety , emergency , and convenience equipment of protective vehicles to ensure peak - operating condition Driving protective or follow - up vehicles Monitoring and operating various communications equipment Using various advanced x-ray screening technologies to detect and identify high - risk items Special officers are sworn law enforcement officers , and are authorized to make arrests in connection with their official duties . They are classified as federal agents but use `` special officer '' as their official title much the same way as Deputy US Marshals are special agents but use the title `` Deputy US Marshal '' . Newly appointed special officers must successfully complete eight ( 8 ) weeks of intensive training at the Special Officer Basic Training Course at the Secret Service James J. Rowley Training Center just outside Washington , D.C. The training includes courses such as Criminal Law , Laws of Arrest , Search and Seizure , Control Tactics , Civil Liability , Emergency Medicine , Basic Water Safety , Firearms and Weapons Handling , Radio Communications , Emergency Driving and Physical Fitness Training . Weapons and equipment ( edit ) Secret Service snipers protect Vice President Mike Pence in Indianapolis , 2017 . Since the agency 's inception , a variety of weapons have been carried by its agents . Previous firearms ( edit ) Initially the firearms were privately procured and there was little if any standardization . In the 1930s , the USSS issued the Colt M1911A1 pistol in . 45 ACP caliber . In the 1950s and 1960s , Special Agents carried the Smith & Wesson Model 36 and Colt Detective Special . 38 - Special revolvers . Following President Kennedy 's assassination , USSS Special Agents were authorized to carry the . 357 Magnum Smith & Wesson Model 19 revolver . Between 1981 and 1991 , the Secret Service issued the Smith & Wesson Model 19 and the Smith & Wesson Model 66 . 357 Magnum revolvers , with 2.5 - inch barrels all the way up to the 4 - inch - barreled models , loaded with hollow - point rounds . By 1992 , the standard issue weapon became the SIG Sauer P228 9mm pistol . This weapon stayed in service through 1999 . The Secret Service replaced the Thompson submachine gun with the Uzi submachine gun in the 1970s . Uzis that the Secret Service used have slightly shorter - than - standard barrels so they could to fit inside the standard size Samsonite briefcases that concealed them . They phased out the Uzi in the mid 1990s and replaced it with the H&K MP5 . The Secret Service was the last Federal agency to use the Uzi . The Counter-Assault Team used the M4 carbine from the early 1990s until 2006 . Current weapons ( edit ) Secret Service `` counter-sniper '' marksman on top of the White House 's roof , armed with a sniper rifle . The current sidearm for USSS agents is the SIG Sauer P229 chambered in . 357 SIG ( which entered service in 1999 ) or FN Five - seveN chambered in FN 5.7 x28mm . Agents and officers are trained on standard shoulder weapons that include the FN P90 submachine gun , the 9mm Heckler & Koch MP5 submachine gun , and the 12 - gauge Remington 870 shotgun . The agency has initiated a procurement process to ultimately replace the MP5 with a 5.56 mm rifle . As a non-lethal option , Special Agents , Special Officers , and Uniformed Division Officers are armed with the ASP 16 '' expandable baton , and Uniformed Division officers also carry pepper spray . Special Operations Division ( SOD ) units are authorized to use a variety of non-standard weapons . The Counter Assault Team ( CAT ) and the Emergency Response Team ( ERT ) both use the 5.56 mm Knight 's Armament Company SR - 16 CQB assault rifle in an 11.5 '' configuration . CAT also deploys 12 gauge Remington 870 MCS breaching shotguns . Uniform Division technicians assigned to the Counter Sniper ( CS ) team use custom built . 300 Winchester Magnum - chambered bolt - action rifles referred to as JARs ( `` Just Another Rifle '' ) . These rifles are built with Remington 700 long actions in Accuracy International stocks and use Schmidt & Bender optics . CS technicians also use the 7.62 mm KAC SR - 25 / Mk11 Mod 0 semi-automatic sniper rifle with a Trijicon 5.5 × ACOG optic . Badges ( edit ) Secret Service badge ( 1875 - 1890 ) Secret Service badge ( 1890 - 1971 ) Secret Service badge ( 1971 - 2003 ) Secret Service badge ( 2003 - Present ) Attire ( edit ) Secret Service agent in business suit working President Obama 's protection detail . Special Agents and Special Officers of the Secret Service wear attire that is appropriate for their surroundings , in order to blend in as much as possible . In most circumstances , the attire of a close protection shift is a conservative suit , but it can range from a tuxedo to casual clothing as required by the environment . Stereotypically , Secret Service agents are often portrayed wearing reflective sunglasses and a communication earpiece . Often their attire is customized to conceal the wide array of equipment worn in service . Agents wear a distinctive lapel pin that identifies them to other agents . The attire for Uniformed Division Officers includes standard police uniforms or utility uniforms and ballistic / identification vests for members of the counter-sniper team , Emergency Response Team ( ERT ) , and canine officers . The shoulder patch of the Uniformed Division consists of the U.S. coat of arms on white or black , depending on the garment . Also , the shoulder patch is embroidered with `` U.S. Secret Service Uniformed Division Police '' around the emblem . Communications ( edit ) The agency uses Motorola XTS and APX radios and surveillance kits in order to maintain communications . These radios are known to use DES encryption keys . When operationally required , members of the Special Operations Division use military grade radios that use Type 1 encryption algorithms . Vehicles ( edit ) When transporting the President in a motorcade , the Secret Service uses a fleet of custom - built armored Cadillac Parade Limousines , the newest and largest version of which is known as `` The Beast '' . Armored Chevrolet Suburbans are also used when logistics require such a vehicle or when a more low profile appearance is required . For official movement the limousine is affixed with U.S. and presidential flags and the presidential seal on the rear doors . For unofficial events the vehicles are left sterile and unadorned . Field offices ( edit ) Secret Service Field Offices Main article : List of United States Secret Service field offices The Secret Service has agents assigned to 136 field offices and field agencies , and the headquarters in Washington , D.C. The Service 's offices are located in cities throughout the United States and in Brazil ( Brasilia ) , Bulgaria ( Sofia ) , Canada ( Montreal , Ottawa , Toronto , Vancouver ) , Colombia ( Bogotá ) , China ( Hong Kong ) , France ( Paris , Lyon ) , Germany ( Frankfurt ) , Italy ( Rome ) , Mexico ( Mexico City ) , Netherlands ( The Hague ) , Romania ( Bucharest ) , Russia ( Moscow ) , South Africa ( Pretoria ) , Spain ( Madrid ) , Thailand ( Bangkok ) , and the United Kingdom ( London ) . The offices in Lyon and The Hague are respectively responsible for liaison with the headquarters of Interpol and Europol , located in those cities . Misconduct ( edit ) See also : 6th Summit of the Americas § U.S. security misconduct In April 2012 , an incident involving the president 's security detail received international press attention . The incident involved 11 agents and personnel from four branches of the U.S. military ; they allegedly engaged prostitutes while assigned to protect the U.S. President at the 6th Summit of the Americas in Cartagena , Colombia . As of April 24 , 2012 , nine employees had resigned or retired . After the incident was publicized , the Secret Service implemented new rules for its personnel . The rules prohibit personnel from visiting `` non-reputable establishments '' and from consuming alcohol fewer than ten hours before starting work .

The Republicans , in turn , claimed `` blanket rights '' to play the songs at their public events . In launching the complaint , Bon Jovi stated , `` We were not asked ... we do not approve of their use of ( the song ) . We wrote this song as a thank you to those who have supported us over the past 25 years . The song has since become a banner for our home state of New Jersey and the de facto theme song for our partnerships around the country to build homes and rebuild communities . '' Bon Jovi has been an enthusiastic Democratic Party supporter , appearing at a $30,000 - per - plate fundraiser in support of President Barack Obama and performing at rallies for various Democratic candidates .

The series premiered on September 19 , 2016 on NBC . The series focuses on Eleanor Shellstrop ( Kristen Bell ) , a woman who wakes up in the afterlife and is introduced by Michael ( Ted Danson ) to `` The Good Place '' , a Heaven - like utopia he designed , in reward for her righteous life . She realizes that she was sent there by mistake , and must hide her morally imperfect behavior and tries to become a better person . William Jackson Harper , Jameela Jamil and Manny Jacinto co-star as other residents of `` The Good Place '' , together with D'Arcy Carden as Janet , an artificial being helping the inhabitants . The Good Place has received positive reviews since its premiere , with many praising its performances , writing , originality , setting and tone , as well as its first - season finale 's twist ending . On January 30 , 2017 , NBC renewed the series for a second season of 13 episodes , which premiered on Wednesday , September 20 , 2017 , with an hour - long premiere , before moving to its normal time slot Thursday at 8 : 30 pm , beginning September 28 , 2017 . Contents ( hide ) 1 Synopsis 2 Cast and characters 2.1 Main 2.2 Recurring 3 Episodes 4 Production 4.1 Development and casting 4.2 Filming 5 Broadcast and release 5.1 Home media 6 Reception 6.1 Ratings 6.2 Critical reception 6.3 Accolades 7 References 8 External links Synopsis ( edit ) After she is struck by a collection of runaway shopping carts , pushed into traffic and run over by a truck , Eleanor Shellstrop ( Bell ) is welcomed into the afterlife by Michael ( Danson ) , the facilitator and architect of Eleanor 's new neighborhood in a `` perfect utopia '' called `` The Good Place '' . When Michael tells Eleanor she made it into `` The Good Place '' as reward for her life of selfless devotion to helping others , she realizes she must have been mistaken for someone else . She also learns that each person in `` The Good Place '' has a soulmate with whom she or he is matched and ( accordingly ) with whom she or he will live for eternity . Hoping to stay in The Good Place , Eleanor decides to hide her morally imperfect past behavior from everyone else , confessing only to her assigned soulmate , Chidi Anagonye ( Harper ) , a university ethics professor . Chidi agrees to teach Eleanor to become a better person and avoid eternal torture in `` The Bad Place '' . She also interacts closely with a particular group of other people in `` The Good Place '' , notably Tahani Al - Jamil ( Jamil ) , a wealthy philanthropist who dedicated her life to helping the poor and raised billions through charities , and Tahani 's soulmate Jianyu Li ( Jacinto ) , seemingly a silent Buddhist monk from Taiwan , who turns out to be Jason Mendoza , a misplaced music DJ from Florida . Michael and the inhabitants are assisted by Janet ( Carden ) , an artificial being in charge of helping and informing the inhabitants . Each episode of the first season features flashbacks from one of the main characters and ends with a cliffhanger leading into the following episode . In the first - season finale 's twist ending , Michael reveals that he is really a demon and that `` The Good Place '' is actually a new experimental form of `` The Bad Place '' that he has designed himself . Every resident there is also a demon , except for Eleanor , Chidi , Tahani , and Jason , who are the only human inhabitants . They were placed together with the idea that they would torment each other . The plan backfires when they become friends and Eleanor realizes the truth . In season 2 , Michael erases their memories and attempts the experiment again , but Eleanor ( and on one occasion , Jason ) figures out the truth over and over again . Because it is disallowed by his supervisors , Michael is lying to them and pretending to still be on the second attempt , even though he wipes their memories and reboots them repeatedly , more than eight hundred times . As his demon colleagues also demand changes , one of them ( Vicky ) blackmails Michael , demanding he wipe the humans ' memories and reset the neighborhood again , but putting her in charge and enacting all the demands of the other demons . Desperate to retain control and avoid `` retirement '' Michael offers to work with the foursome and not erase their memories if they agree to work with him . Eleanor reluctantly agrees ( after Michael says he can get them to the real Good Place if they do so ) , but says that she will only do so if Michael agrees to join them for Chidi 's ethics lessons . Since he has no choice , Michael agrees to join Chidi 's ethics lessons . Due to multiple times having their memories erased , and also having Janet rebooted for each experiment , nobody except Michael remembers that Jason married Janet during a previous experiment . As a result , in a later experiment , Jason attempts to marry Tahani after sleeping with her and forgetting that he is already married to robot Janet . Eleanor , Chidi and Michael attempt to stop their seaside wedding , after sorting out the various ethical consequences of their actions . At the end of Episode 7 in Season 2 , Shawn , the all powerful judge , who is also Michael 's boss , has returned to speak with Michael about how the experiment is going . Cast and characters ( edit ) Main ( edit ) Kristen Bell as Eleanor Shellstrop , a deceased saleswoman from Arizona who entered an afterlife utopia called `` The Good Place '' seemingly after being mistaken for a human rights lawyer by the same name . With the aid of her alleged soulmate , Chidi , she attempts to reform by learning about ethics , believing she still has a chance to earn a legitimate spot in The Good Place . Now that Eleanor knows about Michael 's experiments and the memory wipes , Eleanor became the de facto leader in the group `` Team Cockroach '' after she makes a truce with Michael to keep Shawn from finding out about the reboots in exchange for helping the humans get to the Real Good Place . William Jackson Harper as Chidi Anagonye , a deceased ethics professor who was born in Nigeria and raised in Senegal , supposed to be Eleanor 's soulmate . Reluctantly , he had hope to meet a soulmate he could bond with , but soon discovers that he and Eleanor were meant to be soulmates because he was always there for her . He is the first person to learn her secret and begins teaching her about ethics to reform both her and Jason . He died on earth when an air conditioner fell on his head outside his apartment building . Chidi speaks French , but in this afterlife , his speech is translated into whatever languages people who listen to him speak ; therefore , he appears to speak English to Eleanor and the audience . Jameela Jamil as Tahani Al - Jamil , a deceased , wealthy philanthropist who traveled extensively around the world . She was born in Pakistan , raised in England , and went to school in France . Tahani , whose full name means `` Congratulations Beautiful , '' is a seemingly - good - natured soul with a cheerful and helpful attitude who was constantly overshadowed by her younger sister , Kamilah during her time on Earth . She died on Earth when a statue of her sister fell on her at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland , Ohio . She gradually learns the truth about Eleanor and Jason following Eleanor 's arrival . Initially , Eleanor dislikes Tahani , finding her positive attitude , condescending manner , and her tendency to name drop obnoxious , but the two eventually become friends . D'Arcy Carden as Janet , a programmed guide who acts as the neighborhood 's main source of information , analogous to an intelligent personal assistant . She is the 25th generation of `` Janet '' programs like her , dating back to a predecessor featuring a click - wheel . She has infinite knowledge of the universe , can provide residents anything they desire , and details everything of what is happening in the Good Place but does have some flaws . Since she is the only individual who came from a true Good Place ( Michael admits to having stolen her in the season 1 finale ) , Janet is subject to numerous reboots ; she pleads with whomever tries to push a red button that shuts her down not to kill her , even going as far as showing pictures ( like an ultrasound of an unborn baby or showing off her `` children '' ) before she falls to the ground . These reboots give Janet increased abilities as well as programming capabilities that compel her to make humans happy , as she 'll only answer to what the humans want her to do , including keeping their secrets to escaping the Bad Place . Janet is incompatible with lies and must tell the objective truth . In season 1 , after she was rebooted the first time , Jason and Janet fell in love with each other and got married . Despite the fact Janet is not human , she and Jason attempted many times in vain to consummate their marriage , without success . It is revealed in season 2 that her feelings for Jason have intensified with each reboot . Also in season 2 , as Janet becomes more self aware with each reboot , she realizes that the experimental created neighborhood may explode or implode due to her computer glitches , and she begs Michael to `` kill '' her and turn her into a marble . Demon Michael , after having attended so many of Chidi 's lessons on ethics and philosophy , can not bring himself to permanently disable robot Janet , because Michael now considers robot Janet to be his best friend . Since Michael will not agree to permanently disable her and turn her into a marble , in order to pacify herself and avoid further earthquakes and the possible destruction of the neighborhood Janet creates a new boyfriend for herself . The boyfriend Janet creates is as anatomically incorrect as she is , with wind chimes for genitalia . Carden also plays `` Bad Janet '' , Janet 's counterpart from The Bad Place . Manny Jacinto as `` Jianyu Li '' , a supposedly silent Buddhist monk from Taiwan and Tahani 's soulmate . Eleanor discovers he is actually Jason Mendoza from Jacksonville , Florida , an amateur DJ , devoted Jacksonville Jaguars fan , and backup dancer who sold fake drugs to high school students . At first , Jason develops feelings for Janet because she is the only one who is nice to him but later forgot after they rebooted everybody 's memories , but later ended up sleeping with Tahani in season 2 . Ted Danson as Michael , the architect of The Good Place where Eleanor and her fellow humans reside . In the first - season finale , it is discovered that he is a Bad Place demon who constructed a fake `` Good Place '' to torture Eleanor , Chidi , Tahani , and Jason . Unfortunately , he ends up repeatedly restarting his experiment due to Eleanor ( and one time Jason ) always figuring out that `` The Good Place '' is `` The Bad Place , '' leading to his routine failure , as well as hiding the constant resets from Shawn in order to avoid `` retirement '' . As part of a truce he makes with Eleanor so his failing project will not be exposed and a chance to reform his behavior , Michael agrees to let the humans keep their memories and help them get into the true Good Place as well as to take Chidi 's ethics lessons . Recurring ( edit ) Tiya Sircar as the `` real Eleanor Shellstrop '' , a human rights lawyer mistakenly sent to The Bad Place , who was killed trying to save Eleanor from a traffic accident , causing confusion because the two Eleanors were close to one another and died almost simultaneously . In the finale of season 1 , she is revealed to be a demonic colleague of Michael 's named Vicky Sengupta , who is part of the experiment . In season 2 , in one of many reboots , Michael gives Vicky a significantly smaller role as Denise , a restaurant owner , to Vicky 's dissatisfaction . After having to go through hundreds of Michael 's failed attempts , Vicky blackmails him , saying he will reboot the neighborhood and blank the memories of the humans again , and put her in charge of the new neighborhood , saying that if he does not agree to her terms ( and to meet the demands of the other demons , who all want something different out of this newest attempt ) , she will alert Shawn to her documentation of his many failures , and request that he initiate Michael 's retirement . This makes Michael desperate enough to team up with the humans , whose memories he only pretends to blank . Adam Scott as Trevor . In season 1 , he is portrayed as a sinister figure representing The Bad Place , sent upon Eleanor 's true identity being revealed , vowing to take her with him . He leads an entourage of demons that parties endlessly and bullies Michael . Marc Evan Jackson as Shawn , an all - powerful Eternal Judge who decides on matters between the two realms . He is called in to hear Eleanor 's fate . In the season 1 finale , his true nature was revealed : he is Michael 's boss . He believes Michael will fail in his second attempt , and he makes it clear that Michael 's failure in this regard will result in Michael 's retirement , and that only one more chance will be given . Maribeth Monroe as Mindy St. Claire , the only resident of The Medium Place , a neutral plane of existence between The Good Place and The Bad Place . She is a former real - estate lawyer , cocaine addict , and is somewhat sexually depraved , as evidenced by the fact that she has taped and kept track of times when Eleanor and Chidi shared intimacy during their repeated visits . Regarding those visits , she told a reluctant and disbelieving Eleanor that she ( Eleanor ) and Chidi have been romantically linked for a long time , even though it may seem to Eleanor as if she and Chidi just met . Because of her location and existence , Mindy is a real person and not subjected to the experimental nature in which both places are being run . It is implied that Mindy died in the 1980s as evidenced in her environmental surroundings ( such as having a TV set with recordable VHS tapes which enabled her to record one of the sex tapes over Cannonball Run 2 ; she also has a People magazine cover featuring Pierce Brosnan that she keeps reading ) . Jason Mantzoukas as Derek , an artificial `` rebound guy '' that Janet creates to get over Jason .

On January 12 , 2016 , it was announced that Kristen Bell and Ted Danson had been cast in the lead roles for the series . The first synopsis of the show was also released , stating that the show was set to revolve around Eleanor designing her own self - improvement course with Michael acting as her guide -- although the afterlife element had always been a part of the series , as Kristen Bell has stated she was aware of the first - season finale twist when she signed onto the show . William Jackson Harper was cast as Chris on February 11 , 2016 , though the character was renamed Chidi . Jameela Jamil was cast as Tessa on February 25 , 2016 , and her character was renamed Tahani . On March 3 , 2016 , Manny Jacinto was revealed to have been cast as a `` sweet and good - natured Jason '' whose `` dream is to make a living as a DJ in Southern Florida . '' On March 14 , 2016 , D'Arcy Carden was cast in the final series regular role as Janet Della - Denunzio , a violin salesperson with a checkered past -- though the character was completely reworked , she retained her original first name in the series . The final premise for the show , including the afterlife element , was ultimately announced on May 15 , 2016 , when NBC announced its schedule for the 2016 -- 17 TV season . Filming ( edit ) According to Schur , the premise and idea was to include religious elements into the series after doing research on various faiths and groups , but he decided to scrap the plans , instead going for a concept that included all faiths that was diverse and free of religious views . `` I stopped doing research because I realized it 's about versions of ethical behavior , not religious salvation , '' he says . `` The show is n't taking a side , the people who are there are from every country and religion . '' Schur also points out that the setting ( shot in San Marino , California 's Huntington Gardens ) already had the feeling of a pastiche of different cultures , stating that the neighborhoods will feature people who are part of nondenominational and interdenominational backgrounds that interact with each other regardless of religion . The series ' setting and premises , as well as the serialized cliffhangers were modeled on Lost , a favorite of Schur . One of the first people he called when he developed the series was Lost co-creator Damon Lindelof . `` I took him to lunch and said , ' We 're going to play a game ( of ) ' Is this anything ? ' '' He then added `` I imagine this going in the Lost way , '' with cliffhangers and future storylines `` . The first season 's surprise twist , that the Good Place was the Bad Place , and Chidi , Eleanor , Jason and Tahani were the four souls chosen because they were best suited to torture each other indefinitely , is very similar in premise to philosopher Jean - Paul Sartre 's stage play No Exit , in which three strangers die , are escorted to a single room by a friendly bellhop where they are informed they must co-exist together , but ultimately determine they are entirely incompatible and thus come to the conclusion that `` hell is other people '' . The only actors who knew the truth from the start were Danson and Bell . Critics have also suggested resemblances to 1960s surreal TV show The Prisoner in its isolated , rule - bound setting . Broadcast and release ( edit ) Since the start of season two in September 2017 , Netflix distributes the show to various international markets with new episodes being released a few hours after their original American airing . Home Media ( edit ) The first season was released on DVD in region 1 on October 17 , 2017 .

Matthews concludes that `` The hope is that their combined star power can restore NBC 's tarnished comedy brand to its former glory . It wo n't be the next Friends , but it 's something even better : a network comedy that feels different than anything that 's come before .

Milan or simply Milan , is a professional football club in Milan , Italy , founded in 1899 . The club has spent its entire history , with the exception of the 1980 -- 81 and 1982 -- 83 seasons , in the top flight of Italian football , known as Serie A since 1929 -- 30 . AC Milan 's 18 FIFA and UEFA trophies is the fourth highest out of any club ( joint with Boca Juniors ) , and the most out of any Italian club . Milan has won a joint record three Intercontinental Cups and one FIFA Club World Cup , seven European Cup / Champions League titles ( Italian record ) , the UEFA Super Cup a joint record five times and the Cup Winners ' Cup twice . With 18 league titles , Milan is also the joint - second most successful club in Serie A , along with local rivals Internazionale and behind Juventus ( 34 league titles ) . They have also won the Coppa Italia five times , and the Supercoppa Italiana seven . Milan 's home games are played at San Siro , also known as the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza . The stadium , which is shared with city rivals Internazionale , is the largest in Italian football , with a total capacity of 80,018 . Inter are considered their biggest rivals , and matches between the two teams are called Derby della Madonnina , which is one of the most followed derbies in football . The former owner of the club was former Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi , who owned the club for 31 years . The club is one of the wealthiest in Italian and world football . It was a founding member of the now - defunct G - 14 group of Europe 's leading football clubs as well as its replacement , the European Club Association .

Milan Herbert Kilpin , the club 's first captain and one of its founding members A.C. Milan in 1901 `` Saremo una squadra di diavoli . I nostri colori saranno il rosso come il fuoco e il nero come la paura che incuteremo agli avversari . '' -- 1899 , Herbert Kilpin `` We are a team of devils . Our colours are red as fire and black to invoke fear in our opponents . '' -- 1899 , Herbert Kilpin A.C. Milan was founded as Milan Foot - Ball and Cricket Club in 1899 by English expatriates Alfred Edwards and Herbert Kilpin . Although the club itself claims 16 December of that year as its foundation date , historical evidence show that the club was actually founded on 13 December . In honour of its English origins , the club has retained the English spelling of the city 's name , as opposed to the Italian spelling Milano , which it was forced to bear under the fascist regime . Milan won its first Italian championship in 1901 and a further two in succession in 1906 and 1907 . In 1908 , Milan experienced a split caused by internal disagreements over the signing of foreign players , which led to the forming of another Milan - based team , F.C. Internazionale Milano . Following these events , Milan did not manage to win a single domestic title until 1950 -- 51 . The 1950s saw the club return to the top of Italian football , headed by the famous Gre - No - Li Swedish trio Gunnar Gren , Gunnar Nordahl and Nils Liedholm . This was one of the club 's most successful periods domestically , with the Scudetto going to Milan in 1951 , 1955 , 1957 , 1959 and 1962 . In 1963 , Milan won its first continental title by beating Benfica in the final of the European Cup . This success was repeated in 1969 , with a 4 -- 1 win over Ajax in the final , which was followed by the Intercontinental Cup title the same year . During this period Milan also won its first Coppa Italia , with victory over Padova in the 1967 final , and two European Cup Winners ' Cups : in 1967 -- 68 and 1972 -- 73 . A.C. Milan celebrating after winning the European Cup Winners ' Cup final in 1968 Milan won a tenth league title in 1979 , but after the retirement of Gianni Rivera in the same year , the team went into a period of decline . The club was involved in the 1980 Totonero scandal and as punishment was relegated to Serie B for the first time in its history . The scandal was centred around a betting syndicate paying players and officials to fix the outcome of matches . Milan achieved promotion back to Serie A at the first attempt , winning the 1980 -- 81 Serie B title , but were again relegated a year later as the team ended its 1981 -- 82 campaign in third - last place . In 1983 , Milan won the Serie B title for the second time in three seasons to return to Serie A , where they achieved a sixth - place finish in 1983 -- 84 . On 20 February 1986 , entrepreneur Silvio Berlusconi acquired the club and saved it from bankruptcy after investing vast amounts of money , appointing rising manager Arrigo Sacchi at the helm of the Rossoneri and signing Dutch internationals Ruud Gullit , Marco van Basten and Frank Rijkaard . The Dutch trio added an attacking impetus to the team , and complemented the club 's Italian internationals Paolo Maldini , Franco Baresi , Alessandro Costacurta and Roberto Donadoni . Under Sacchi , Milan won its first Scudetto in nine years in the 1987 -- 88 season . The following year , the club won its first European Cup in two decades , beating Romanian club Steaua București 4 -- 0 in the final . Milan retained their title with a 1 -- 0 win over Benfica a year later and was the last team to win back - to - back European Cups until Real Madrid 's win in 2017 . The Milan team of 1989 -- 90 , nicknamed the `` Immortals '' in the Italian media , has been voted the best club side of all time in a global poll of experts conducted by World Soccer magazine . Marco Van Basten , pictured with the 1988 Ballon d'Or , won the award three times during his time with Milan . After Sacchi left Milan in 1991 , he was replaced by the club 's former player Fabio Capello whose team won three consecutive Serie A titles between 1992 and 1994 , a spell which included a 58 - match unbeaten run in Serie A ( which earned the team the label `` the Invincibles '' ) , and back - to - back UEFA Champions League final appearances in 1993 , 1994 and 1995 . A year after losing 1 -- 0 to Marseille in the 1993 Champions League final , Capello 's team reached its peak in one of Milan 's most memorable matches of all time , the famous 4 -- 0 win over Barcelona in the 1994 Champions League final . Capello 's side went on to win the 1995 -- 96 league title before he left to coach Real Madrid in 1996 . In 1998 -- 99 , after a two - year period of decline , Milan lifted its 16th championship in the club 's centenary season . Milan lifting the European Cup after winning the 2002 -- 03 UEFA Champions League Milan 's next period of success came under another former player , Carlo Ancelotti . After his appointment in November 2001 , Ancelotti took Milan to the 2003 Champions League final , where they defeated Juventus on penalties to win the club 's sixth European Cup . The team then won the Scudetto in 2003 -- 04 before reaching the 2005 Champions League final , where they were beaten by Liverpool on penalties despite leading 3 -- 0 at half - time . Two years later , the two teams met again in the 2007 Champions League final , with Milan winning 2 -- 1 to lift the title for a seventh time . The team then won its first FIFA Club World Cup in December 2007 . In 2009 , after becoming Milan 's second longest serving coach with 420 matches overseen , Ancelotti left the club to take over as head - coach at Chelsea . During this period , the club was involved in the Calciopoli scandal , where five teams were accused of fixing matches by selecting favourable referees . A police inquiry excluded any involvement of Milan managers , but the Italian Football Federation ( FIGC ) unilaterally decided that it had sufficient evidence to charge Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani . As a result , Milan was initially punished with a 15 - point deduction and was banned from the 2006 -- 07 UEFA Champions League . An appeal saw that penalty reduced to eight points , which allowed the club to retain its Champions League participation . Following the aftermath of Calciopoli , local rivals Internazionale dominated Serie A , winning four Scudetti . However , with the help a strong squad boasting players such as Zlatan Ibrahimović , Robinho and Alexandre Pato joining many of the veterans of the club 's mid-decade European successes , Milan recaptured the Scudetto in the 2010 -- 11 Serie A season , their first since the 2003 -- 04 season , and 18th overall . However , after the Scudetto the club declined in performance . It saw the club failed to qualify to European competitions since 2014 . Fininvest , the holding company of the club also signed a preliminary agreement with Bee Taechaubol to sell 48 % stake of the club for € 480 million in 2015 , after a net loss of € 91.3 million in 2014 financial year and subsequent financial contribution from Fininvest . However , the deal collapsed . On 5 August 2016 , a new preliminary agreement was signed with a Chinese investment management company Sino - Europe Sports Investment Management Changxing Co. , Ltd . ( Chinese : 中欧 体育 投资 管理 长兴 有限 公司 ) , which Fininvest sold 99.93 % stake of Milan for about € 520 million , plus the refurbishment of the club financial debt of € 220 million . ( A further € 90 million credit line from Fininvest was added to the valuation as the new debt was occurred between 1 July 2016 and the closing date ) . 0.07 % stake of the club were retained by other shareholders . On 13 April 2017 , the deal was completed and Rossoneri Sport Investment Lux became the new direct parent company of the club . Colours and badge `` I ca n't think of many shirts out there that are as recognisable as Milan 's . -- Our kits go beyond just the sphere of football . '' -- In an interview with SoccerBible , Milan player Gianluca Lapadula complimented the iconic design of Rossoneri . Red and black are the colours which have represented the club throughout its entire history . They were chosen to represent the players ' fiery ardor ( red ) and the opponents ' fear to challenge the team ( black ) . Rossoneri , the team 's widely used nickname , literally means `` the red & blacks '' in Italian , in reference to the colours of the stripes on its jersey . Another nickname derived from the club 's colours is the Devil . An image of a red devil was used as Milan 's logo at one point with a Golden Star for Sport Excellence located next to it . As is customary in Italian football , the star above the logo was awarded to the club after winning 10 league titles , in 1979 . For many years , Milan 's badge was simply the Flag of Milan , which was originally the flag of Saint Ambrose . The modern badge used today represents the club colours and the flag of the Comune di Milano , with the acronym ACM at the top and the foundation year ( 1899 ) at the bottom . White shorts and black socks are usually worn as part of the home strip . Milan 's away strip has always been completely white . It is considered by both the fans and the club to be a lucky strip in Champions League finals , due to the fact that Milan has won six finals out of eight in an all white strip ( losing only to Ajax in 1995 and Liverpool in 2005 ) , and only won one out of three in the home strip . The third strip , which is rarely used , changes yearly , being mostly black with red trimmings in recent seasons .

Milan ( 1926 -- present ) , Internazionale ( 1947 -- present ) Main article : San Siro The team 's stadium is the 80,018 seat San Siro , officially known as Stadio Giuseppe Meazza after the former player who represented both Milan and Internazionale . The more commonly used name , `` San Siro '' , is the name of the district where it is located . San Siro has been the home of Milan since 1926 , when it was privately built by funding from Milan 's president at the time , Piero Pirelli ( it ) . Construction was performed by 120 workers , and took 13 - and - a-half months to complete . The stadium was owned by the club until it was sold to the city council in 1935 , and since 1947 , it has been shared with Internazionale when the other major Milanese club was accepted as joint tenant . The first game played at the stadium was on 19 September 1926 , when Milan lost 6 -- 3 in a friendly match against Internazionale . Milan played its first league game in San Siro on 19 September 1926 , losing 1 -- 2 to Sampierdarenese . From an initial capacity of 35,000 spectators , the stadium has undergone several major renovations , most recently in preparation for the 1990 FIFA World Cup when its capacity was set to 85,700 , all covered with a polycarbonate roof . In the summer of 2008 its capacity has been reduced to 80,018 , to meet the new standards set by UEFA . Based on the English model for stadiums , San Siro is specifically designed for football matches , as opposed to many multi-purpose stadiums used in Serie A. It is therefore renowned in Italy for its fantastic atmosphere during matches , largely thanks to the closeness of the stands to the pitch . The frequent use of flares by supporters contributes to the atmosphere but the practice has occasionally caused problems . A panorama of the San Siro during matchday On 19 December 2005 , Milan vice-president and executive director Adriano Galliani announced that the club is seriously working towards a relocation . He said that Milan 's new stadium will be largely based on the Veltins - Arena -- the home of Schalke 04 in Gelsenkirchen -- and will follow the standards of football stadiums in the United States , Germany and Spain . As opposed to many other stadiums in Italy , Milan 's new stadium will likely be used for football only , having no athletics track . On 11 December 2014 , Barbara Berlusconi announced a proposal to build a property stadium of 42,000 seats in Portello , behind the new HQ of the Rossoneri , and the large square `` Piazza Gino Valle '' . The new village with shopping malls and hotel is located near CityLife district and is served by the metro . On 20 September 2015 , however , Silvio Berlusconi has called an end to his club 's plans to build a new stadium in the city . In 2017 , new CEO Marco Fassone stated that the club may look at either staying in the San Siro or moving to a new stadium with the club hierarchy emphasizing the need to increase average attendance for home games . Supporters and rivalries Brigate Rossonere Brothers Giuseppe ( left ) and Franco ( right ) Baresi facing each other in the 1979 -- 80 Milan derby Milan is one of the best supported football clubs in Italy , according to research conducted by Italian newspaper La Repubblica . Historically , Milan was supported by the city 's working - class . On the other hand , crosstown rivals Internazionale were mainly supported by the more prosperous middle - class . The oldest ultras groups in all of Italian football , Fossa dei Leoni , originated in Milan . Currently , the main ultras group within the support base is Brigate Rossonere . Politically , Milan ultras have never had any particular preference , but the media traditionally associated them with the left - wing , until recently , when Berlusconi 's presidency somewhat altered that view . According to a study from 2010 , Milan is the most supported Italian team in Europe and seventh overall , with over 18.4 million fans . It had the ninth highest average attendance of European football clubs during the 2010 -- 11 season , behind Borussia Dortmund , Barcelona , Manchester United , Real Madrid , Bayern Munich , Schalke 04 , Arsenal and Hamburger SV . Genoa fans consider Milan a hated rival after Genoa fan Vincenzo Spagnolo was stabbed to death by a Milan supporter in January 1995 . Milan 's main rivalry , however , is with its neighbour club , Internazionale , where both clubs meet in the widely anticipated Derby della Madonnina twice every Serie A season . The name of the derby refers to the Blessed Virgin Mary , whose statue atop the Milan Cathedral is one of the city 's main attractions . The match usually creates a lively atmosphere , with numerous ( often humorous or offensive ) banners unfolded before the start of the game . Flares are commonly present and contribute to the spectacle but they have occasionally led to problems , including the abandonment of the second leg of the 2004 -- 05 Champions League quarter - final match between Milan and Inter on 12 April 2005 , after a flare thrown from the crowd by an Inter supporter struck Milan goalkeeper Dida on the shoulder .

Milan records and statistics Paolo Maldini made a record 902 appearances for Milan , including 647 in Serie A . Paolo Maldini holds the records for both total appearances and Serie A appearances for Milan , with 902 official games played in total and 647 in Serie A ( as of 31 May 2009 , not including playoff matches ) , the latter being an all - time Serie A record . Swedish forward Gunnar Nordahl scored 38 goals in the 1950 -- 51 season , 35 of which were in Serie A , setting an Italian football and club record . He went on to become Milan 's all - time top goalscorer , scoring 221 goals for the club in 268 games . He is followed in second place by Andriy Shevchenko with 175 goals in 322 games , and Gianni Rivera in third place , who has scored 164 goals in 658 games . Rivera is also Milan 's youngest ever goalscorer , scoring in a league match against Juventus at just 17 years . Legendary tactician Nereo Rocco , the first proponent of catenaccio in the country , was Milan 's longest - serving head coach , sitting on the bench for over nine years ( in two spells ) in the 1960s and early 1970s , winning the club 's first European Cup triumphs . Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi , who purchased the club in 1986 , is Milan 's longest - serving president ( 23 years , due to a two - year vacancy between 2004 and 2006 ) . The first official match in which Milan participated was in the Third Federal Football Championship , the predecessor of Serie A , losing 3 -- 0 to Torinese . Milan 's largest ever victory was 13 -- 0 against Audax Modena , in a league match at the 1914 -- 15 season . Its heaviest defeat was recorded in the league at the 1922 -- 23 season , beaten 0 -- 8 by Bologna . During the 1991 -- 92 season , the club achieved the feature of being the first team to win the Serie A title without losing a single game . Previously , only Perugia had managed to go unbeaten over an entire Serie A season ( 1978 -- 79 ) , but finished second in the table . In total , Milan 's unbeaten streak lasted 58 games , starting with a 0 -- 0 draw against Parma on 26 May 1991 and coincidentally ending with a 1 -- 0 home loss to Parma on 21 March 1993 . This is a Serie A record as well as the third - longest unbeaten run in top flight European football , coming in behind Steaua București 's record of 104 unbeaten games and Celtic 's 68 game unbeaten run . Since 2007 , along with Boca Juniors , Milan has won more FIFA recognised international club titles than any other club in the world with 18 titles . They were overtaken by Al Ahly SC from Egypt after their 2014 CAF Confederation Cup win . The sale of Kaká to Real Madrid in 2009 broke the eight - year - old world football transfer record held by Zinedine Zidane , costing the Spanish club € 67 million ( about £ 56 million ) . That record , however , lasted for less than a month , broken by Cristiano Ronaldo 's £ 80 million transfer . This record , however , is in terms of nominal British pound rates , not adjusted to inflation or the real value of the euro . Madrid bought Zidane for € 77.5 million in 2001 , about £ 46 million at that time . AC Milan as a company Milan is a subsidiary of Rossoneri Sport Investment Luxembourg since 13 April 2017 , which acquired 99.92973 % shares of A.C. Milan S.p.A. from Fininvest . Li Yonghong became the new chairman and Marco Fassone was confirmed as CEO . The other members of the board of directors were Roberto Cappelli , David Han Li , Lu Bo ( Chinese : 路 博 of Haixia Capital ) , Marco Patuano , Paolo Scaroni and Xu Renshuo . ( Chinese : 许仁硕 ) According to The Football Money League published by consultants Deloitte , in the 2005 -- 06 season , Milan was the fifth - highest earning football club in the world with an estimated revenue of € 233.7 million . However , it fell to eighth in 2011 -- 12 season , tenth in 2012 -- 13 and twelfth in 2013 -- 14 season . The club is also ranked as the eighth - wealthiest football club in the world by Forbes magazine as of 2014 , making it the wealthiest in Italian football , just surpassing ninth - ranked Juventus by a narrow margin . Emirates is the current main sponsor for Milan 's shirt starting from the 2010 -- 11 season and through to the 2019 -- 20 season . This follows a four - year relationship with Austrian online betting company bwin.com as sponsor . Previously , German car manufacturer Opel ( owned by General Motors ) had sponsored Milan for 12 seasons . For most of those 12 years , `` Opel '' was displayed on the front of the shirt , but in the 2003 -- 04 and the 2005 -- 06 seasons respectively , `` Meriva '' and `` Zafira '' ( two cars from the company 's range ) were displayed . The current shirts are supplied by German sportswear manufacturer Adidas , whose deal was scheduled to run until 2023 . The deal makes Adidas the official manufacturer of all kits , training equipment and replica outfits . However , an early termination of the deal was announced in October 2017 , effective on 30 June 2018 . Prior to Adidas , the Italian sports company Lotto produced Milan 's sportswear . A.C. Milan Group made an aggregate net loss in recent years , which was one of the largest among the Italian clubs , notably : 2005 , net loss of € 4.5 million ( separate account ) ; 2006 , a net income of € 11.9 million ( mainly contributed by the sales of Andriy Shevchenko ) ; 2007 , a net loss of € 32 million ; 2008 , a net loss of € 77 million ; 2009 , a net loss of € 19 million ( the decreased net loss was mainly contributed by the sales of Kaká ) ; 2010 , a net loss of € 65 million ; in 2011 , a net loss of € 67.334 million , in 2012 , a net loss of € 6.857 million ( contributed by the sales of Thiago Silva and Zlatan Ibrahimović ) . and in 2013 , a net loss of € 15.7 million ( with some contribution by the sales of Kevin - Prince Boateng and Alexandre Pato and other player , as well as decrease in wage bill . ) A.C.

where did ice cream sundae get its name
Sundae - wikipedia Sundae Jump to : navigation , search This article is about an ice cream dessert . For a Korean sausage , see Sundae ( sausage ) . `` Ice Cream Sundae '' redirects here . For other uses , see Ice Cream Sundae ( disambiguation ) . Not to be confused with Sunday . This article needs additional citations for verification . Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources . Unsourced material may be challenged and removed . ( April 2012 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) Sundae <Td_colspan="2"> A strawberry sundae served in a clear , classic glass cup Type Ice cream Course Dessert Place of origin United States Main ingredients Ice cream , sauce or syrup , various toppings The sundae ( / ˈsʌndeɪ , ˈsʌndi / ) is a sweet ice cream dessert . It typically consists of one or more scoops of ice cream topped with sauce or syrup , and in some cases other toppings including sprinkles , whipped cream , peanuts , maraschino cherries , or other fruits ( e.g. , bananas and pineapple in a banana split . ) . According to the Oxford English Dictionary , the origin of the term sundae is obscure ; however , it is generally accepted that the spelling `` sundae '' derives from the English word `` Sunday ''.

According to documentation published by the Evanston Public Library ( Illinois ) , the drinking of soda was outlawed on Sundays in Illinois . Other origin stories for the sundae focus on the novelty or inventiveness of the treat or the name of the originator , and make no mention of legal pressures . Ice cream sundae soon became the weekend semi-official soda fountain confection in the beginning of the 1900s and quickly gained popularity . The Ice Cream Trade Journal for 1909 along with plain , or French sundae , listed such exotic varieties as Robin Hood sundae , Cocoa Caramel sundae , Black Hawk sundae , Angel Cake sundae , Cherry Dip sundae , Cinnamon Peak sundae , Opera sundae , Fleur D'Orange sundae , Knickerbocker sundae , Tally - Ho Sundae , Bismarck and George Washington sundaes , to name a few . Contested origins ( edit ) Various localities have claimed to be the birthplace of the ice cream sundae , including Plainfield , Illinois ; New Orleans , Louisiana ; Cleveland , Ohio ; and New York City . Two Rivers , wisconsin in 1881 ( edit ) Wisconsin Historical Marker detailing Two Rivers as the locale of the invention of the ice cream sundae - Central Park , Two Rivers , WI Two Rivers ' claim is based on the story of George Hallauer asking Edward C. Berners , the owner of Berners ' Soda Fountain , to drizzle chocolate syrup over ice cream in 1881 . Berners eventually did and wound up selling the treat for a nickel , originally only on Sundays , but later every day . According to this story , the spelling changed when a glass salesman ordered canoe - shaped dishes . When Berners died in 1939 , the Chicago Tribune headlined his obituary `` Man Who Made First Ice Cream Sundae Is Dead '' . Two Ithaca High School students , however , claim that Berners would have only been 16 or 17 in 1881 , so it is therefore `` improbable '' that he would have owned an ice cream shop in that year . They also state that the obituary dates Berners ' first sundae to 1899 rather than 1881 . Residents of Two Rivers have contested the claims of other cities to the right to claim the title `` birthplace of the ice cream sundae '' . When Ithaca , New York , mayor Carolyn K. Peterson proclaimed a day to celebrate her city as the birthplace of the sundae , she received postcards from Two Rivers ' citizens reiterating that town 's claim . Buffalo , New York in 1889 ( edit ) Buffalo 's Stoddart Bros. Drug Store advertised serving up ice cream garnished with fruit syrup and whipped cream , in the pages of The Buffalo Evening News and the Buffalo Courier , as early as 1889 . While there is no reference to naming this creation a `` sundae '' , the elements of a modern sundae are present . Evanston , Illinois in 1890 ( edit ) Ithaca Daily Journal , May 28 , 1892 Evanston was one of the first locations to pass a blue law against selling ice cream sodas in 1890 . `` Some ingenious confectioners and drug store operators ( in Evanston ) ... obeying the law , served ice cream with the syrup of your choice without the soda ( on Sundays ) . Thereby complying with the law ... This sodaless soda was the Sunday soda . '' As sales of the dessert continued on Mondays , local Methodist leaders then objected to naming the dish after the Sabbath , so the spelling of the name was changed to sundae . Ithaca , New York in 1892 ( edit ) Supporting Ithaca 's claim to be `` the birthplace of the ice cream sundae '' , researchers at The History Center in Tompkins County , New York , provide an account of how the sundae came to be : On Sunday , April 3 , 1892 , in Ithaca , John M. Scott , a Unitarian Church minister , and Chester Platt , co-owner of Platt & Colt Pharmacy , created the first historically documented sundae . Platt covered dishes of ice cream with cherry syrup and candied cherries on a whim . The men named the dish `` Cherry Sunday '' in honor of the day it was created . The oldest - known written evidence of a sundae is Platt & Colt 's newspaper ad for a `` Cherry Sunday '' placed in the Ithaca Daily Journal on April 5 , 1892 . By May 1892 , the Platt & Colt soda fountain also served `` Strawberry Sundays '' and later , `` Chocolate Sundays '' . Platt & Colt 's `` Sundays '' grew so popular that by 1894 , Chester Platt attempted to trademark the term ice cream `` Sunday '' . Plainfield , Illinois ( edit ) Plainfield , Illinois has also claimed to be the home of the very first ice cream sundae . A local belief is that a Plainfield druggist named Mr. Sonntag created the dish `` after the urgings of patrons to serve something different . '' He named it the `` sonntag '' after himself , and since Sonntag means Sunday in German , the name was translated to Sunday , and later was spelled sundae . Charles Sonntag established himself as a pharmacist after graduating from pharmacy school in 1890 . He worked for several years under the employ of two local druggists , Dr. David W . Jump and F.R. Tobias . Sonntag established his own pharmacy ( as early as 1893 and no later than 1895 ) in a building constructed in the months following a December 1891 fire that devastated one side of the town 's business district . His store advertised `` Sonntag 's Famous Soda '' and was , likely , the first soda fountain in the Village of Plainfield . Types ( edit ) This section needs additional citations for verification .

( January 2017 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) Classic ice cream sundae ( edit ) The original sundae consists of vanilla ice cream topped with whipped cream and a maraschino cherry . The original sundae consists of vanilla ice cream topped with a flavored sauce or syrup , whipped cream , and a maraschino cherry . Classic sundaes are typically named after flavored syrup employed in the recipe : cherry sundae , chocolate sundae , strawberry sundae , raspberry sundae , etc . The classic sundae is traditionally served in a tulip - shaped , footed glass vase . Due to the long association between the shape of the glass and the dessert , this style of serving dish is generally now known as a sundae glass . Banana split ( edit ) Main article : Banana split A banana split This dessert consists of three sundaes in one , side by side between two halves of a banana , sliced lengthwise . The classic banana split consists of strawberry ice cream topped with chocolate syrup , chocolate ice cream topped with crushed pineapple , and vanilla ice cream topped with strawberry syrup . Each scoop is individually garnished with whipped cream and a maraschino cherry . American parfait ( edit ) Main article : Parfait This is a sundae served in a tall glass filled with layers of ice cream , gelatine , and flavorings such as syrups , whipped cream , granola , fresh fruit , and / or liqueurs . Knickerbocker glory ( edit ) Main article : Knickerbocker glory This ice cream sundae is served in a large tall glass , consisting of layers of ice cream , jelly , and cream , topped with syrup , nuts , whipped cream , and often a cherry ; it is popular in the United Kingdom . Fruit ( edit ) Sliced or chopped fruit that has been sugared and let to sit for an hour or more to form a sweet syrup may be substituted for the flavored sauce or syrup of the classic sundae . Fresh fruit sundaes include named variations such as the strawberry , peach , raspberry , blueberry , blackberry , and mixed fruit sundaes . Fresh fruit sundaes are generally served during the summer months , and they are sometimes advertised as specialty offerings in agricultural areas where particular fruits are grown . Jarred fruit products are also available which are made specifically for the preparation of ice cream sundaes , often sweetened and in a thickened flavored juice . Sundaes can also be topped with canned fruits . Heated - sauce ( edit ) Heated - sauce sundaes are those in which the flavored sauce or syrup is heated before being poured over the ice cream , creating appealing differences in temperature as well as texture . Hot fudge The hot fudge sundae is a variation on the classic sundae and is often a creation of vanilla ice cream , sprinkles , hot chocolate sauce ( hence the `` hot fudge '' ) , whipped cream , nuts , and a single bright - red maraschino cherry on top . A hot fudge sundae can be made with any flavor of ice cream . National Hot Fudge Sundae Day is celebrated on July 25 . Double fudge The double fudge sundae is like a regular hot fudge sundae , except that it is twice as big and is served in a glass banana split dish or boat . It is made from the same ingredients as a regular hot fudge sundae , but also includes extra fudge , as well as whipped cream , optional nuts or sprinkles , and a maraschino cherry on top . Caramel This is a variation of the hot fudge sundae in which heated caramel sauce replaces the heated chocolate sauce . The other ingredients remain unchanged . Turtle The combination of vanilla ice cream , hot fudge and hot caramel sauces , and toasted pecans is known as a turtle sundae . The name derives from the turtle candy , which consists of pecans covered with caramel and then dipped in chocolate . Butterscotch The butterscotch sundae is a variation of the hot fudge sundae . This is a variation of the hot fudge sundae in which butterscotch sauce replaces the heated chocolate sauce . The other ingredients remain unchanged . Other heated sauce varieties Occasionally , other stiff - textured sweet sauces replace the hot chocolate sauce of the classic hot fudge sundae . These novelty sundaes include the peanut butter sundae , the Nutella sundae , the hot maple syrup sundae , and others . Black and white ( Tin Roof sundae ) ( edit ) This sundae features a scoop of vanilla ice cream with chocolate sauce and a scoop of chocolate ice cream with creamy white marshmallow sauce , topped with Spanish peanuts . The Tin Roof Sundae was created in 1916 , at the Potter Drug Co. , in Potter , Nebraska , owned by pharmacist James Earl Thayer . His son , Harold Dean `` Pinky '' Thayer , worked in the soda fountain as a teenager , and is credited for inventing the ice cream treat . According to Dr. J.E. Thayer of Sidney , there are two stories of how the sundae got its name . The first is that it was inspired by the tin ceiling in the business ; the other is that the stable across the street had a tin roof and that he named it after that . The Tin Roof Sundae can still be enjoyed in Potter , Nebraska , where the Potter Drug Co. , now called the Potter Sundry , is still in operation . Brownie sundae ( edit ) This is a rich sundae made with brownies , vanilla ice cream , chocolate syrup , peanuts , hot fudge , and whipped cream , often topped with maraschino cherry . If a blondie replaces the brownie , then caramel sauce is used as a topping instead of chocolate sauce . References ( edit ) ^ Jump up to : `` Origin of the Ice Cream Sundae '' .

Scott paid his usual visit to the Platt & Colt Pharmacy in downtown Ithaca . Shop proprietor , Chester C. Platt , was church treasurer and he met often with Scott for conversation after services . Seeking refreshment for himself and the reverend , Platt asked his fountain clerk , DeForest Christiance , for two bowls of ice cream . But instead of serving the reverend plain vanilla , Platt took the bowls and topped each with cherry syrup and a candied cherry . The finished dish looked delightful and tasted delicious -- so much so that the men felt obliged to name the new creation . After some debate , Scott suggested that it be named for the day it was created . Platt concurred and the first `` Cherry Sunday '' was born .

when did cars land open in california adventure
Cars Land - wikipedia Cars Land Jump to : navigation , search <Th_colspan="2"> Cars Land <Td_colspan="2"> <Td_colspan="2"> Looking down Route 66 in Cars Land Location Disney California Adventure 33.8056 ° N , 117.9187 ° W Status Operating Opening date June 15 , 2012 Replaced Timon Parking Lot Bountiful Valley Farms Theme Cars , Radiator Springs Area 12 acres ( 4.9 ha ) <Th_colspan="2"> Attractions Attractions 3 total Cars Land is a themed area of Disney California Adventure , inspired by the Disney Pixar franchise , Cars . The 12 - acre ( 4.9 ha ) area , built as part of Disney California Adventure Park 's $1.1 billion expansion project , opened on June 15 , 2012 . It contains three rides as well as shops and restaurants , all situated in a replica of Radiator Springs , the fictional town in which most of the first film 's events take place . The area 's main attraction is Radiator Springs Racers , a racing ride that uses the technology of Epcot 's Test Track . Contents ( hide ) 1 History 2 Attractions 2.1 Radiator Springs Racers 2.2 Mater 's Junkyard Jamboree 2.3 Luigi 's Rollickin ' Roadsters 3 Former attractions 4 Restaurants 5 Characters 6 Shopping 7 Layout 8 See also 9 References 10 External links History ( edit ) Most of the present - day site of Cars Land had been used as the `` Timon '' parking lot since 2001 ; the lot had been designated as future growth space for Disney California Adventure when it was originally designed in the 1990s , and was partially built over with The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror and the Flik 's Fun Fair section of A Bug 's Land . A small portion of Cars Land was built over the site of the Bountiful Valley Farm , one of the park 's original attractions . Concept art for `` Carland '' appeared in the `` Dreaming '' section of the Walt Disney Company 's 2006 Annual Report , released on December 12 , 2006 , six months after Cars was released in theaters . The concept art depicted a racing simulator ride , but provided no specifics ; Disney CEO Bob Iger stated at the time that the concept art depicted projects at various stages of development , and that some of the projects depicted `` may never be built . '' On October 17 , 2007 , Disney announced a 5 - year , $1.1 billion renovation and expansion plan for Disney California Adventure . The plan included a major overhaul of several existing areas of the park and the addition of Cars Land , an area themed to the 2006 film ; Cars Land would be anchored by Radiator Springs Racers , a Cars version of Test Track , a ride at Epcot at the Walt Disney World Resort . Cars Land along with the re-designed entrance plaza , Buena Vista Street , were the last features of the 5 - year project to be completed , and opened on June 15 , 2012 . Attractions ( edit ) Radiator Springs Racers Mater 's Junkyard Jamboree Luigi 's Flying Tires Radiator Springs Racers ( edit ) Radiator Springs Racers -- a slot car dark ride . The attraction takes guests in six - person vehicles through the winding roads up the mountains outside Radiator Springs and by the waterfall scene in the first film . The cars then enter the mountain and take a semi-wild ride through the outskirts of town where they encounter a number of characters . Eventually , they enter Radiator Springs at which point the track splits into two : one goes into Ramone 's while the other into Luigi 's . From here , the cars enter a briefing room where Doc gives guests some advice for the upcoming race . The two tracks come back near one another and two cars stop side - by - side . The race begins as the vehicles accelerate out of the mountain and through hairpin turns and steep banks , ending with a randomized race result and then a brief trip through Tail Light Caverns . The technology used is similar to Test Track at Epcot in Walt Disney World in Florida , and Journey to the Center of the Earth at Tokyo DisneySea . Mater 's Junkyard Jamboree ( edit ) Mater 's Junkyard Jamboree ( renamed Mater 's Graveyard JamBOOree during Halloween and Mater 's Jingle Jamboree during Christmas ) -- an attraction in the style of a whip ride themed to Mater 's Junkyard . Mater is the Master of Ceremonies of the Jamboree . The vehicles are baby tractors which pull trailers attached to them that move around with the music . Luigi 's Rollickin ' Roadsters ( edit ) Luigi 's Rollickin ' Roadsters ( renamed Luigi 's Honkin ' Haul - O - Ween during Halloween and Luigi 's Joy to the Whirl during Christmas ) -- Guests queue in Luigi 's Casa Della Tires shop and ride in vehicles that move and spin around to Italian music . The attraction uses a trackless ride system , similar to Aquatopia at Tokyo DisneySea . The ride vehicles are depicted as being Luigi 's cousins who have come to Radiator Springs for a dance celebration . The attraction , which officially opened March 7 , 2016 , replaced Luigi 's Flying Tires , the original attraction in this location . Former attractions ( edit ) Luigi 's Flying Tires Restaurants ( edit ) Flo 's V8 Cafe at night Cozy Cone Motel Flo 's V8 Cafe Fillmore 's Taste - in Characters ( edit ) Lightning McQueen ( dressed as a superhero during Halloween ) Mater ( dressed as a vampire during Halloween and as Santa Claus during Christmas ) Red ( dressed as a clown during Halloween ) Cruz Ramirez ( dressed as a pirate during Halloween ) DJ ( dressed as a punk rocker during Halloween ) Shopping ( edit ) Ramone 's House of Body Art Sarge 's Surplus Hut Radiator Springs Curios ( renamed Radiator Winter Curios during Christmas ) Layout ( edit ) The layout of Cars Land from the guest 's perspective is one of looking down the main street of Radiator Springs , USA , as seen in the original Cars film . There are references to the events of Cars 2 throughout the land , such as a billboard ( seen when entering from A Bug 's Land ) that gives Mater the title of `` Sir , '' and a signed photo of Finn McMissile with Luigi and Guido in Luigi 's Casa Della Tires , in addition to souvenirs from their World Grand Prix trip in a display case . The main street is Route 66 coming in from the Golden State area , across from the Golden Vine Winery and Walt Disney Imagineering Blue Sky Cellar . The other two entrances into the land are through a path in A Bug 's Land between the entrance of Heimlich 's Chew Chew Train and Tuck and Roll 's Drive ' Em Buggies , and through an archway as a part of the rockwork making up Ornament Valley from Pacific Wharf . The two other entrances are the same path crossing through the middle of Cars Land . The path 's name is Cross Street . At the end of Route 66 is the courthouse / firehouse where the street splits . To the left of the split is a backstage access gate . To the right of the split is the entrance to Radiator Springs Racers . In the distance , the Radiator Cap and Ornament Valley Range can be seen . The eastern edge of the Ornament Valley Range includes the Cadillac Mountain Range that consists of Cadillac tail fins that are 125 feet ( 38 m ) high and covers 300,000 square feet ( 28,000 m ) .

She enlisted in school at Roe Head in January 1831 , aged 14 years . She left the year after to teach her sisters , Emily and Anne , at home , returning in 1835 as a governess . In 1839 she undertook the role as governess for the Sidgwick family , but left after a few months to return to Haworth where the sisters opened a school , but failed to attract any students . Instead they turned to writing and they each first published in 1846 under the pseudonyms of Currer , Ellis and Acton Bell . Her first novel The Professor was rejected by publishers , her second novel Jane Eyre was published in 1847 , although it was not initially well received ; one critic described it as a `` pre-eminently an anti-Christian composition '' . The sisters admitted to their Bell pseudonyms in 1848 , and by the following year were celebrated in London literary circles . Brontë experienced the early deaths of all her siblings . She became pregnant shortly after her marriage in June 1854 but died on 31 March 1855 of tuberculosis or possibly typhus .

In 1820 her family moved a few miles to the village of Haworth , where her father had been appointed perpetual curate of St Michael and All Angels Church . Maria died of cancer on 15 September 1821 , leaving five daughters , Maria , Elizabeth , Charlotte , Emily and Anne , and a son , Branwell , to be taken care of by her sister , Elizabeth Branwell . In August 1824 Patrick sent Charlotte , Emily , Maria and Elizabeth to the Clergy Daughters ' School at Cowan Bridge in Lancashire . Charlotte maintained that the school 's poor conditions permanently affected her health and physical development , and hastened the deaths of Maria ( born 1814 ) and Elizabeth ( born 1815 ) , who both died of tuberculosis in June 1825 . After the deaths of his older daughters , Patrick removed Charlotte and Emily from the school . Charlotte used the school as the basis for Lowood School in Jane Eyre . At home in Haworth Parsonage , Brontë acted as `` the motherly friend and guardian of her younger sisters '' . Brontë wrote her first known poem at the age of 13 in 1829 , and was to go on to write more than 200 poems in the course of her life . Many of her poems were `` published '' in their homemade magazine Branwell 's Blackwood 's Magazine , and concerned the fictional Glass Town Confederacy . She and her surviving siblings -- Branwell , Emily and Anne -- created their own fictional worlds , and began chronicling the lives and struggles of the inhabitants of their imaginary kingdoms . Charlotte and Branwell wrote Byronic stories about their jointly imagined country , Angria , and Emily and Anne wrote articles and poems about Gondal . The sagas they created were episodic and elaborate , and they exist in incomplete manuscripts , some of which have been published as juvenilia . They provided them with an obsessive interest during childhood and early adolescence , which prepared them for literary vocations in adulthood . Roe Head School , in Mirfield Between 1831 and 1832 , Brontë continued her education at Roe Head in Mirfield , where she met her lifelong friends and correspondents Ellen Nussey and Mary Taylor . In 1833 she wrote a novella , The Green Dwarf , using the name Wellesley . Around about 1833 , her stories shifted from tales of the supernatural to more realistic stories . She returned to Roe Head as a teacher from 1835 to 1838 . Unhappy and lonely as a teacher at Roe Head , Brontë took out her sorrows in poetry , writing a series of melancholic poems . In `` We wove a Web in Childhood '' written in December 1835 , Brontë drew a sharp contrast between her miserable life as a teacher and the vivid imaginary worlds she and her siblings had created . In another poem `` Morning was its freshness still '' written at the same time , Brontë wrote `` Tis bitter sometimes to recall / Illusions once deemed fair '' . Many of her poems concerned the imaginary world of Angria , often concerning Byronic heroes , and in December 1836 she wrote to the Poet Laureate Robert Southey asking him for encouragement of her career as a poet . Southey wrote back to say she was a bad poet and to consider another career , a letter that greatly hurt her . One scholar Dawn Potter wrote that Brontë had a streak of sadism in her novels with her characters always suffering in some way , which she suggested was due to her own unhappy life . In 1839 she took up the first of many positions as governess to families in Yorkshire , a career she pursued until 1841 . In particular , from May to July 1839 she was employed by the Sidgwick family at their summer residence , Stone Gappe , in Lothersdale , where one of her charges was John Benson Sidgwick ( 1835 -- 1927 ) , an unruly child who on one occasion threw a Bible at Charlotte , an incident that may have been the inspiration for a part of the opening chapter of Jane Eyre in which John Reed throws a book at the young Jane . Brontë did not enjoy her work as a governess , noting her employers treated her almost as a slave , constantly humiliating her . Brontë was of slight build and was less than five feet tall . Brussels ( edit ) Plaque in Brussels , on the Centre for Fine Arts , Brussels In 1842 Charlotte and Emily travelled to Brussels to enrol at the boarding school run by Constantin Héger ( 1809 -- 1896 ) and his wife Claire Zoé Parent Héger ( 1804 -- 1887 ) . During her time in Brussels , Brontë , who favoured the Protestant ideal of an individual in direct contact with God , objected to the stern Catholicism of Madame Héger , which she considered a tyrannical religion that enforced conformity and submission to the Pope . In return for board and tuition Charlotte taught English and Emily taught music . Their time at the school was cut short when their aunt Elizabeth Branwell , who had joined the family in Haworth to look after the children after their mother 's death , died of internal obstruction in October 1842 . Charlotte returned alone to Brussels in January 1843 to take up a teaching post at the school . Her second stay was not happy : she was homesick and deeply attached to Constantin Héger . She returned to Haworth in January 1844 and used the time spent in Brussels as the inspiration for some of the events in The Professor and Villette . First publication ( edit ) In May 1846 Charlotte , Emily and Anne self - financed the publication of a joint collection of poems under their assumed names Currer , Ellis and Acton Bell . The pseudonyms veiled the sisters ' sex while preserving their initials ; thus Charlotte was Currer Bell . `` Bell '' was the middle name of Haworth 's curate , Arthur Bell Nicholls whom Charlotte later married , and `` Currer '' was the surname of Frances Mary Richardson Currer who had funded their school ( and maybe their father ) . Of the decision to use noms de plume , Charlotte wrote : Averse to personal publicity , we veiled our own names under those of Currer , Ellis and Acton Bell ; the ambiguous choice being dictated by a sort of conscientious scruple at assuming Christian names positively masculine , while we did not like to declare ourselves women , because -- without at that time suspecting that our mode of writing and thinking was not what is called `` feminine '' -- we had a vague impression that authoresses are liable to be looked on with prejudice ; we had noticed how critics sometimes use for their chastisement the weapon of personality , and for their reward , a flattery , which is not true praise . Although only two copies of the collection of poems were sold , the sisters continued writing for publication and began their first novels , continuing to use their noms de plume when sending manuscripts to potential publishers . The Professor and Jane Eyre ( edit ) Main article : Jane Eyre Title page of the first edition of Jane Eyre Brontë 's first manuscript , The Professor , did not secure a publisher , although she was heartened by an encouraging response from Smith , Elder & Co. of Cornhill , who expressed an interest in any longer works Currer Bell might wish to send . Brontë responded by finishing and sending a second manuscript in August 1847 . Six weeks later , Jane Eyre was published . It tells the story of a plain governess , Jane , who , after difficulties in her early life , falls in love with her employer , Mr Rochester . They marry , but only after Rochester 's insane first wife , of whom Jane initially has no knowledge , dies in a dramatic house fire . The book 's style was innovative , combining naturalism with gothic melodrama , and broke new ground in being written from an intensely evoked first - person female perspective . Brontë believed art was most convincing when based on personal experience ; in Jane Eyre she transformed the experience into a novel with universal appeal . Jane Eyre had immediate commercial success and initially received favourable reviews . G.H. Lewes wrote that it was `` an utterance from the depths of a struggling , suffering , much - enduring spirit '' , and declared that it consisted of `` suspiria de profundis ! '' ( sighs from the depths ) . Speculation about the identity and gender of the mysterious Currer Bell heightened with the publication of Wuthering Heights by Ellis Bell ( Emily ) and Agnes Grey by Acton Bell ( Anne ) . Accompanying the speculation was a change in the critical reaction to Brontë 's work , as accusations were made that the writing was `` coarse '' , a judgement more readily made once it was suspected that Currer Bell was a woman . However , sales of Jane Eyre continued to be strong and may even have increased as a result of the novel developing a reputation as an `` improper '' book . A talented amateur artist , Brontë personally did the drawings for the second edition of Jane Eyre and in the summer of 1834 two of her paintings were shown at an exhibition by the Royal Northern Society for the Encouragement of the Fine Arts in Leeds . Shirley and bereavements ( edit ) In 1848 Brontë began work on the manuscript of her second novel , Shirley . It was only partially completed when the Brontë family suffered the deaths of three of its members within eight months . In September 1848 Branwell died of chronic bronchitis and marasmus , exacerbated by heavy drinking , although Brontë believed that his death was due to tuberculosis . Branwell may have had a laudanum addiction . Emily became seriously ill shortly after his funeral and died of pulmonary tuberculosis in December 1848 . Anne died of the same disease in May 1849 . Brontë was unable to write at this time . After Anne 's death Brontë resumed writing as a way of dealing with her grief , and Shirley , which deals with themes of industrial unrest and the role of women in society , was published in October 1849 . Unlike Jane Eyre , which is written in the first person , Shirley is written in the third person and lacks the emotional immediacy of her first novel , and reviewers found it less shocking . Brontë , as her late sister 's heir , suppressed the republication of Anne 's second novel , The Tenant of Wildfell Hall , an action which had a deleterious effect on Anne 's popularity as a novelist and has remained controversial among the sisters ' biographers ever since . Disputed photograph taken about 1855 ; sources are in disagreement over whether this image is of Brontë or of her friend , Ellen Nussey . In Society ( edit ) In view of the success of her novels , particularly Jane Eyre , Brontë was persuaded by her publisher to make occasional visits to London , where she revealed her true identity and began to move in more exalted social circles , becoming friends with Harriet Martineau and Elizabeth Gaskell , and acquainted with William Makepeace Thackeray and G.H. Lewes . She never left Haworth for more than a few weeks at a time , as she did not want to leave her ageing father . Thackeray 's daughter , writer Anne Isabella Thackeray Ritchie , recalled a visit to her father by Brontë : ... two gentlemen come in , leading a tiny , delicate , serious , little lady , with fair straight hair and steady eyes . She may be a little over thirty ; she is dressed in a little barège dress with a pattern of faint green moss . She enters in mittens , in silence , in seriousness ; our hearts are beating with wild excitement . This then is the authoress , the unknown power whose books have set all London talking , reading , speculating ; some people even say our father wrote the books -- the wonderful books ... The moment is so breathless that dinner comes as a relief to the solemnity of the occasion , and we all smile as my father stoops to offer his arm ; for , genius though she may be , Miss Brontë can barely reach his elbow . My own personal impressions are that she is somewhat grave and stern , specially to forward little girls who wish to chatter ... Everyone waited for the brilliant conversation which never began at all . Miss Brontë retired to the sofa in the study , and murmured a low word now and then to our kind governess ... the conversation grew dimmer and more dim , the ladies sat round still expectant , my father was too much perturbed by the gloom and the silence to be able to cope with it at all ... after Miss Brontë had left , I was surprised to see my father opening the front door with his hat on . He put his fingers to his lips , walked out into the darkness , and shut the door quietly behind him ... long afterwards ... Mrs Procter asked me if I knew what had happened ... It was one of the dullest evenings ( Mrs Procter ) had ever spent in her life ... the ladies who had all come expecting so much delightful conversation , and the gloom and the constraint , and how finally , overwhelmed by the situation , my father had quietly left the room , left the house , and gone off to his club . Brontë 's friendship with Elizabeth Gaskell , while not particularly close , was significant in that Gaskell wrote the first biography of Brontë after her death in 1855 . Villette ( edit ) Brontë 's third novel , the last published in her lifetime , was Villette , which appeared in 1853 . Its main themes include isolation , how such a condition can be borne , and the internal conflict brought about by social repression of individual desire . Its main character , Lucy Snowe , travels abroad to teach in a boarding school in the fictional town of Villette , where she encounters a culture and religion different from her own , and falls in love with a man ( Paul Emanuel ) whom she can not marry . Her experiences result in a breakdown but eventually she achieves independence and fulfilment through running her own school . A substantial amount of the novel 's dialogue is in the French language . Villette marked Brontë 's return to writing from a first - person perspective ( that of Lucy Snowe ) ; the technique she had used in Jane Eyre . Another similarity to Jane Eyre lies in the use of aspects of her own life as inspiration for fictional events ; in particular her reworking of the time she spent at the pensionnat in Brussels . Villette was acknowledged by critics of the day as a potent and sophisticated piece of writing although it was criticised for `` coarseness '' and for not being suitably `` feminine '' in its portrayal of Lucy 's desires . Marriage ( edit ) Before the publication of Villette , Brontë received an expected proposal of marriage from Arthur Bell Nicholls , her father 's curate , who had long been in love with her . She initially turned down his proposal and her father objected to the union at least partly because of Nicholls 's poor financial status . Elizabeth Gaskell , who believed that marriage provided `` clear and defined duties '' that were beneficial for a woman , encouraged Brontë to consider the positive aspects of such a union and tried to use her contacts to engineer an improvement in Nicholls 's finances . Brontë meanwhile was increasingly attracted to Nicholls and by January 1854 she had accepted his proposal . They gained the approval of her father by April and married in June . Her father Patrick had intended to give Charlotte away , but at the last minute decided he could not , and Charlotte had to make her way to the church without him . The married couple took their honeymoon in Banagher , County Offaly , Ireland . By all accounts , her marriage was a success and Brontë found herself very happy in a way that was new to her . Death ( edit ) Brontë became pregnant soon after her wedding , but her health declined rapidly and , according to Gaskell , she was attacked by `` sensations of perpetual nausea and ever - recurring faintness '' . She died , with her unborn child , on 31 March 1855 , three weeks before her 39th birthday . Her death certificate gives the cause of death as tuberculosis , but biographers including Claire Harman suggest that she died from dehydration and malnourishment due to vomiting caused by severe morning sickness or hyperemesis gravidarum . There is also evidence that she died from typhus , which she may have caught from Tabitha Ackroyd , the Brontë household 's oldest servant , who died shortly before her . Charlotte Brontë was buried in the family vault in the Church of St Michael and All Angels at Haworth . The Professor , the first novel Brontë had written , was published posthumously in 1857 . The fragment of a new novel she had been writing in her last years has been twice completed by recent authors , the more famous version being Emma Brown : A Novel from the Unfinished Manuscript by Charlotte Brontë by Clare Boylan in 2003 . Most of her writings about the imaginary country Angria have also been published since her death . In 2018 , The New York Times published a belated obituary for her . Religion ( edit ) The daughter of an Irish Anglican clergyman , Brontë was herself an Anglican . In a letter to her publisher , she claims to `` love the Church of England . Her Ministers indeed , I do not regard as infallible personages , I have seen too much of them for that - but to the Establishment , with all her faults - the profane Athanasian Creed excluded - I am sincerely attached . '' In a letter to Ellen Nussey she wrote : If I could always live with you , and `` daily '' read the ( B ) ible with you , if your lips and mine could at the same time , drink the same draught from the same pure fountain of Mercy - I hope , I trust , I might one day become better , far better , than my evil wandering thoughts , my corrupt heart , cold to the spirit , and warm to the flesh will now permit me to be . The life of Charlotte Brontë ( edit ) Portrait by J.H. Thompson at the Brontë Parsonage Museum Elizabeth Gaskell 's biography The Life of Charlotte Brontë was published in 1857 . It was an important step for a leading female novelist to write a biography of another , and Gaskell 's approach was unusual in that , rather than analysing her subject 's achievements , she concentrated on private details of Brontë 's life , emphasising those aspects that countered the accusations of `` coarseness '' that had been levelled at her writing . The biography is frank in places , but omits details of Brontë 's love for Héger , a married man , as being too much of an affront to contemporary morals and a likely source of distress to Brontë 's father , widower , and friends . Mrs Gaskell also provided doubtful and inaccurate information about Patrick Brontë , claiming that he did not allow his children to eat meat . This is refuted by one of Emily Brontë 's diary papers , in which she describes preparing meat and potatoes for dinner at the parsonage . It has been argued that Gaskell 's approach transferred the focus of attention away from the ' difficult ' novels , not just Brontë 's , but all the sisters ' , and began a process of sanctification of their private lives . Héger letters ( edit ) On 29 July 1913 The Times of London printed four letters Brontë had written to Constantin Héger after leaving Brussels in 1844 . Written in French except for one postscript in English , the letters broke the prevailing image of Brontë as an angelic martyr to Christian and female duties that had been constructed by many biographers , beginning with Gaskell . The letters , which formed part of a larger and somewhat one - sided correspondence in which Héger frequently appears not to have replied , reveal that she had been in love with a married man , although they are complex and have been interpreted in numerous ways , including as an example of literary self - dramatisation and an expression of gratitude from a former pupil . In 1980 a commemorative plaque was unveiled at the Centre for Fine Arts , Brussels ( BOZAR ) , on the site of the Madam Heger 's school , in honour of Charlotte and Emily . In May 2017 the plaque was cleaned . Publications ( edit ) Novels portal Poetry portal Biography portal Branwell Brontë , Painting of the 3 Brontë Sisters , l to r Anne , Emily and Charlotte Brontë .

Subsequently , The Professor was resubmitted separately , and rejected by many publishing houses . It was published posthumously in 1857 Emma , unfinished ; Brontë wrote only 20 pages of the manuscript , published posthumously in 1860 . In recent decades at least two continuations of this fragment have appeared : Emma , by `` Charlotte Brontë and Another Lady '' , published 1980 ; although this has been attributed to Elizabeth Goudge , the actual author was Constance Savery .

The song has been recorded by over 180 artists , and versions released as singles by Harry Nilsson ( 1971 ) and Mariah Carey ( 1994 ) became international best - sellers . Paul McCartney once described the ballad as `` the killer song of all time '' . In 1972 , writers Ham and Evans received the British Academy 's Ivor Novello Award for Best Song Musically and Lyrically .

Two streams , referring to real events in the songwriters ' lives flowed together to create the song . Pete Ham had written a song originally titled `` If It 's Love '' but it had lacked a strong chorus . At the time of writing the band shared residence with the Mojos at 7 Park Avenue in Golders Green . One evening , in the midst of the parties , songwriting , touring , in Golders Green , Ham and his girlfriend Beverly Tucker were about to go out for the evening . But just as they were leaving Tom Evans said he had an idea for a song -- Ham said , ' Not tonight , I 've promised Bev . ' But she thought he would be wondering if he had done the right thing later , if he went out , -- she told him -- ' Go into the studio , I 'm fine about it ... ' He said , `` Your mouth is smiling , but your eyes are sad . '' The song Ham wrote that night was called ' If its Love ' and has the verse `` Well I ca n't forget tomorrow , when I think of all my sorrow , I had you there but then I let you go , and now it 's only fair that I should let you know ... if it 's love ... '' But Pete was n't happy with the chorus . '' Events in Evans ' love life would lead to the completion of the track . While Evans was touring in Cologne he had met the woman who would become his future wife , Marianne . She moved to London . It was a sparky relationship . `` One evening he went to her friend Karen and told Karen , ' She 's left me . I need her back . I ca n't live without her . ' He flew to Bonn to find her -- he wrote a song called ' I Ca n't Live ' . Its chorus ; `` I ca n't live , if living is without you , I ca n't live , I ca n't give any more . '' And so the merging of the two songs , Ham and Evans created the hit . Ham 's verse , ' warm , sweet , sentimental ' and Evans ' chorus , -- ' intense , dramatic , heartbreaking . ' '' Both Ham and Evans said they did not consider the song to have much potential at the time Badfinger recorded it , and the track was slotted to close Side A of their 1970 No Dice album . Badfinger 's recording of the song , which is more brusque than its successors ' versions , was not released as a single in Europe or North America . `` Without You '' was released backed by `` We 're For The Dark '' in The Philippines on Apple Records , Catalogue number APPLE - 025 , `` Without You '' was also finally released as a 3 '' CD single in Japan in March 1993 along with the track `` No Matter What '' . Two writers of the song , Ham and Evans , later committed suicide due to legal and financial issues . In Evans ' case , it was a dispute over songwriting royalties for `` Without You '' that precipitated his action . Songwriting royalties had become the subject of constant legal wrangling for Evans , and In 1983 , following an acrimonious argument with his bandmate Joey Molland over the royalties for the song , Evans hanged himself .

After realising it was not , he decided to cover the song for his album Nilsson Schmilsson in 1971 . The song was released as a single in October 1971 , and it stayed at number 1 on the U.S. pop chart for four weeks , from 13 February to 11 March 1972 . The song also spent five weeks atop the U.S. adult contemporary chart . Billboard ranked it as the No. 4 song for 1972 . In the UK , the song spent five weeks at number 1 on the British pop chart , beginning on 11 March , and sold almost 800,000 copies . It went to Number One in several other countries , including Australia ( for 5 weeks ) , Ireland ( 2 weeks ) and New Zealand ( 2 weeks ) . The single was produced by Richard Perry , who later explained , `` It was a different record for its time . It was a big ballad with a heavy backbeat , and although many artists have cut songs like it since , no one was doing it then . '' Gary Wright who worked with Badfinger on George Harrison 's projects , played the piano . Also featured are Klaus Voormann ( bass ) , Jim Keltner ( drums ) and Tom Plovanic ( acoustic guitar ) . The string and horn arrangements are by Paul Buckmaster . In 1973 , Nilsson won the `` Best Male Pop Vocal '' Grammy award for the song . While Nilsson rarely gave live concerts , he did perform the song with Ringo Starr and his All - Starr Band at Caesar 's Palace in Las Vegas in September 1992 .

In the U.S. it was promoted as a double A-side with `` Never Forget You '' . Carey said that she decided to cover the song when she heard it in a restaurant ( additionally , when performing the song in Tokyo , she said she listened to it when she was a little girl ) . Her version has been considered very popular on talent shows . `` Without You '' was later included on some non-U.S. pressings of her compilation album # 1 's ( 1998 ) , and her 2001 compilation , Greatest Hits . `` Without You '' was also included on her 2009 compilation The Ballads . Critical reception ( edit ) David Browne of Entertainment Weekly called it a `` by - the - numbers remake of Nilsson 's melodramatic 1972 hit . '' Stephen Holden of Rolling Stone called this song `` likeliest contender '' for ballads like `` I Will Always Love You '' and he praised `` Carey dips into her lower register and is accompanied by backup singers ( including herself ) magnified to sound like a mighty gospel chorus . '' Chart performance ( edit ) `` Without You '' reached number 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 for six weeks , remaining in the top 40 for 21 weeks and on the chart for 23 . It reached number 2 on both the Billboard Hot 100 Airplay and Radio & Records pop charts ( ending Carey 's streak of consecutive number ones on the latter chart ; all ten of her previous singles had gone to the top ) , and number 3 on the Hot 100 Singles Sales . It was certified gold by the RIAA and sold 600,000 copies domestically . It was ranked 16 on the Hot 100 1994 year - end charts . `` Without You '' remains Carey 's biggest hit across Europe . It became her first UK number 1 single , and was her only number one there until `` Against All Odds '' in 2000 , which was also a cover . It debuted at number 1 on the chart and stayed at number 1 for four weeks . It was also her first chart - topper in Italy , but was most successful in Switzerland ( with ten non-consecutive weeks at number 1 ) and the Netherlands ( twelve weeks ) . It also topped the singles chart in Germany for four weeks and Austria for eight weeks , where Carey 's success had previously been limited . It also topped the Swedish Singles Chart for eight weeks , was number 1 in Ireland for five weeks and in New Zealand for one week . It was able to make the top three in Canada , France , Norway and Australia . It was certified platinum in Australia by ARIA and in Germany and Austria by IFPI .

This Spanish version of the ballad has also been recorded by Paloma San Basilio . A different Spanish translation , `` Desde el dia que te fuiste '' ( `` From the Day You Went Away '' ) , was a # 1 hit for Pandora on Billboard 's Hot Latin Tracks in 1992 . The Italian version , entitled Per chi ( For Whom ) , whose text has been written by Daniele Pace , was one of 1972 's local biggest hits , sung by Johnny Dorelli , Nicola Di Bari and the Sicilian band I Gens . The Cambodian version sang by Poev Vannary also has her own cover of without you entitled ភ្លេច បង មិន បាន ( Ca n't forget you ) . Billy Paul covered this song on his 1976 album `` Let'Em In '' . Heart also covered this song on their 1977 album Magazine . Air Supply covered `` Without You '' in 1991 , reaching # 48 on the U.S. Adult Contemporary chart . The song is often covered by TV talent show contestants . In 2001 , Kelly Clarkson performed the song on `` Top 3 '' week of season 1 of American Idol . Valentina Hasan , a season two contestant of Music Idol , sang her own version in Engrish . Soon dubbed `` Ken Lee '' after her mispronunciation of `` Ca n't Live , '' the video of Hasan 's performance became a YouTube hit , parodied and remixed by many fans as featured in Sign of the Times on ABC 's Nightline in March 2009 . In films and television ( edit ) Nilsson 's version of `` Without You '' was used as the opening tune to the 1979 feature film Porridge . In the film Casino , the Nilsson version is playing during one of Ginger 's manic episodes . In the film The Rules of Attraction , a college girl commits suicide in a bathtub while this song plays on the soundtrack . In Bridget Jones ' Diary , the title character performs a tuneless rendition of this song . In Whiskey Tango Foxtrot , this song plays during a raid in which American Marines rescue a kidnapped journalist . In June 2010 the Harry Nilsson version of the song was used in television advertising for the UK brand Soda Stream . Nilsson 's version was also included in the Apple Productions Movie , `` The Son of Dracula '' . It was also used in the final scenes of the Inside No. 9 episode A Quiet Night In . In series two of Peep Show this song was featured in the episode titled Wedding . In the 2015 movie Vacation , the Harry Nilsson version plays during the Grand Canyon rafting scene . Nilsson 's version was heard in a 2016 commercial for Heinz ketchup that debuted on CBS ' coverage of Super Bowl 50 on 7 February 2016 . In the television series 30 Rock episode `` Cutbacks '' Jonathan sings chorus to Jack after being let go . In June 2017 , Nilsson 's version was used in the ending scene of the penultimate episode in the final season of Pretty Little Liars . ASCAP and Ivor Novello recognition ( edit ) On 15 May 1995 , at ASCAP 's twelfth annual Pop Music Awards in Beverly Hills , California , `` Without You '' was recognised as one of the 50 most - played songs of 1994 ( due largely to Mariah Carey 's recording ) . Discrepancies in ASCAP 's books , resulting from a lawsuit against the Ham and Evans estates by their former manager , incorrectly attributed the song as being composed not only by Ham and Evans , but also by Badfinger 's other bandmembers , Mike Gibbins and Joey Molland , and their former manager , Bill Collins . This designation and a lack of correction by ASCAP prompted the Ham Estate to boycott the ceremony . The song was also nominated for `` Song Of The Year '' in London at the Ivor Novello Awards .

who won the space race to the moon
Space Race - Wikipedia Space Race This article is about the Cold War rivalry between the United States and Soviet Union . For various space races , see List of space races . For other uses of the term , see Space Race ( disambiguation ) . The Soviet Union achieved an early lead in the Space Race by launching the first artificial satellite Sputnik 1 ( replica shown ) in 1957 . The United States led during the `` Moon race '' by landing Neil Armstrong ( pictured ) and Buzz Aldrin on the Moon , July 20 , 1969 . Astronaut Thomas P. Stafford and cosmonaut Aleksei Leonov shake hands in space to ease Cold War tensions . The Space Race refers to the 20th - century competition between two Cold War rivals , the Soviet Union ( USSR ) and the United States ( US ) , for dominance in spaceflight capability . It had its origins in the missile - based nuclear arms race between the two nations that occurred following World War II , aided by captured German missile technology and personnel from the Aggregat program . The technological superiority required for such dominance was seen as necessary for national security , and symbolic of ideological superiority . The Space Race spawned pioneering efforts to launch artificial satellites , uncrewed space probes of the Moon , Venus , and Mars , and human spaceflight in low Earth orbit and to the Moon . The Space Race began on August 2 , 1955 , when the Soviet Union responded to the US announcement four days earlier of intent to launch artificial satellites for the International Geophysical Year , by declaring they would also launch a satellite `` in the near future '' . The Soviet Union beat the US to this , with the October 4 , 1957 , orbiting of Sputnik 1 , and later beat the US to the first human in space , Yuri Gagarin , on April 12 , 1961 . The `` race '' peaked with the July 20 , 1969 , US landing of the first humans on the Moon with Apollo 11 . The USSR tried but failed crewed lunar missions , and eventually canceled them and concentrated on Earth orbital space stations . A period of détente followed with the April 1972 agreement on a co-operative Apollo -- Soyuz Test Project , resulting in the July 1975 rendezvous in Earth orbit of a US astronaut crew with a Soviet cosmonaut crew . The end of the Space Race is harder to pinpoint than its beginning , but it was over by the December 1991 dissolution of the Soviet Union , after which true spaceflight cooperation between the US and Russia began . The Space Race has left a legacy of Earth communications and weather satellites , and continuing human space presence on the International Space Station . It has also sparked increases in spending on education and research and development , which led to beneficial spin - off technologies .

Starting in the early 1930s , during the last stages of the Weimar Republic , German aerospace engineers experimented with liquid - fueled rockets , with the goal that one day they would be capable of reaching high altitudes and traversing long distances . The head of the German Army 's Ballistics and Munitions Branch , Lieutenant Colonel Karl Emil Becker , gathered a small team of engineers that included Walter Dornberger and Leo Zanssen , to figure out how to use rockets as long - range artillery in order to get around the Treaty of Versailles ' ban on research and development of long - range cannons . Wernher von Braun , a young engineering prodigy , was recruited by Becker and Dornberger to join their secret army program at Kummersdorf - West in 1932 . Von Braun dreamed of conquering outer space with rockets and did not initially see the military value in missile technology . During the Second World War , General Dornberger was the military head of the army 's rocket program , Zanssen became the commandant of the Peenemünde army rocket center , and von Braun was the technical director of the ballistic missile program . They led the team that built the Aggregate - 4 ( A-4 ) rocket , which became the first vehicle to reach outer space during its test flight program in 1942 and 1943 . By 1943 , Germany began mass - producing the A-4 as the Vergeltungswaffe 2 ( `` Vengeance Weapon '' 2 , or more commonly , V2 ) , a ballistic missile with a 320 kilometers ( 200 mi ) range carrying a 1,130 kilograms ( 2,490 lb ) warhead at 4,000 kilometers per hour ( 2,500 mph ) . Its supersonic speed meant there was no defense against it , and radar detection provided little warning . Germany used the weapon to bombard southern England and parts of Allied - liberated western Europe from 1944 until 1945 . After the war , the V - 2 became the basis of early American and Soviet rocket designs . At war 's end , American , British , and Soviet scientific intelligence teams competed to capture Germany 's rocket engineers along with the German rockets themselves and the designs on which they were based . Each of the Allies captured a share of the available members of the German rocket team , but the United States benefited the most with Operation Paperclip , recruiting von Braun and most of his engineering team , who later helped develop the American missile and space exploration programs . The United States also acquired a large number of complete V2 rockets . Soviet rocket development ( edit ) Further information : Soviet rocketry `` Chief Designer '' Sergei Korolev ( left ) , with the `` father of the Soviet atomic bomb '' Igor Kurchatov , and `` Chief Theoretician '' Mstislav Keldysh in 1956 The German rocket center in Peenemünde was located in the eastern part of Germany , which became the Soviet zone of occupation . On Stalin 's orders , the Soviet Union sent its best rocket engineers to this region to see what they could salvage for future weapons systems . The Soviet rocket engineers were led by Sergei Korolev . He had been involved in space clubs and early Soviet rocket design in the 1930s , but was arrested in 1938 during Joseph Stalin 's Great Purge and imprisoned for six years in Gulag . After the war , he became the USSR 's chief rocket and spacecraft engineer , essentially the Soviet counterpart to von Braun . His identity was kept a state secret throughout the Cold War , and he was identified publicly only as `` the Chief Designer . '' In the West , his name was only officially revealed when he died in 1966 . After almost a year in the area around Peenemünde , Soviet officials conducted Operation Osoaviakhim and later moved more than 170 of the top captured German rocket specialists to Gorodomlya Island on Lake Seliger , about 240 kilometers ( 150 mi ) northwest of Moscow . They were not allowed to participate in final Soviet missile design , but were used as problem - solving consultants to the Soviet engineers . They helped in the following areas : the creation of a Soviet version of the A-4 ; work on `` organizational schemes '' ; research in improving the A-4 main engine ; development of a 100 - ton engine ; assistance in the `` layout '' of plant production rooms ; and preparation of rocket assembly using German components . With their help , particularly Helmut Gröttrup 's group , Korolev reverse - engineered the A-4 and built his own version of the rocket , the R - 1 , in 1948 . Later , he developed his own distinct designs , though many of these designs were influenced by the Gröttrup Group 's G4 - R10 design from 1949 . The Germans were eventually repatriated in 1951 -- 53 . American rocket development ( edit ) The American professor Robert H. Goddard had worked on developing solid - fuel rockets since 1914 , and demonstrated a light battlefield rocket to the US Army Signal Corps only five days before the signing of the armistice that ended World War I. He also started developing liquid - fueled rockets in 1921 , yet he had not been taken seriously by the public . Von Braun and his team were sent to the United States Army 's White Sands Proving Ground , located in New Mexico , in 1945 . They set about assembling the captured V2s and began a program of launching them and instructing American engineers in their operation . These tests led to the first rocket to take photos from outer space , and the first two - stage rocket , the WAC Corporal - V2 combination , in 1949 . The German rocket team was moved from Fort Bliss to the Army 's new Redstone Arsenal , located in Huntsville , Alabama , in 1950 . From here , von Braun and his team developed the Army 's first operational medium - range ballistic missile , the Redstone rocket , that in slightly modified versions , launched both America 's first satellite , and the first piloted Mercury space missions . It became the basis for both the Jupiter and Saturn family of rockets . Cold War missile Race ( edit ) Main article : Nuclear arms race The cold war would become the great engine , the supreme catalyst , that sent rockets and their cargoes far above Earth and worlds away . If Tsiolkovsky , Oberth , Goddard , and others were the fathers of rocketry , the competition between capitalism and communism was its midwife . William E. Burrows , This New Ocean , `` The Other World Series '' , p. 147 The Cold War ( 1947 -- 1991 ) developed between two former allies , the Soviet Union and the United States , soon after the end of the Second World War . It involved a continuing state of political conflict , military tension , proxy wars , and economic competition , primarily between the Soviet Union and its satellite states ( often referred to as the Eastern Bloc ) , and the powers of the Western world , particularly the United States . The primary participants ' military forces never clashed directly , but expressed this conflict through military coalitions , strategic conventional force deployments , extensive aid to states deemed vulnerable , proxy wars , espionage , propaganda , a nuclear arms race , and economic and technological competitions , such as the Space Race . In simple terms , the Cold War could be viewed as an expression of the ideological struggle between communism and capitalism . The United States faced a new uncertainty beginning in September 1949 , when it lost its monopoly on the atomic bomb . American intelligence agencies discovered that the Soviet Union had exploded its first atomic bomb , with the consequence that the United States potentially could face a future nuclear war that , for the first time , might devastate its cities . Given this new danger , the United States participated in an arms race with the Soviet Union that included development of the hydrogen bomb , as well as intercontinental strategic bombers and intercontinental ballistic missiles ( ICBMs ) capable of delivering nuclear weapons . A new fear of communism and its sympathizers swept the United States during the 1950s , which devolved into paranoid McCarthyism . With communism spreading in China , Korea , and Eastern Europe , Americans came to feel so threatened that popular and political culture condoned extensive `` witch - hunts '' to expose communist spies . Part of the American reaction to the Soviet atomic and hydrogen bomb tests included maintaining a large Air Force , under the control of the Strategic Air Command ( SAC ) . SAC employed intercontinental strategic bombers , as well as medium - bombers based close to Soviet airspace ( in western Europe and in Turkey ) that were capable of delivering nuclear payloads . For its part , the Soviet Union harbored fears of invasion . Having suffered at least 27 million casualties during World War II after being invaded by Nazi Germany in 1941 , the Soviet Union was wary of its former ally , the United States , which until late 1949 was the sole possessor of atomic weapons . The United States had used these weapons operationally during World War II , and it could use them again against the Soviet Union , laying waste to its cities and military centers . Since the Americans had a much larger air force than the Soviet Union , and the United States maintained advance air bases near Soviet territory , in 1947 Stalin ordered the development of intercontinental ballistic missiles ( ICBMs ) in order to counter the perceived American threat . Soviet R - 7 ICBM , and its derivative launch vehicles for Sputnik , Vostok , Voskhod , and Soyuz In 1953 , Korolev was given the go - ahead to develop the R - 7 Semyorka rocket , which represented a major advance from the German design . Although some of its components ( notably boosters ) still resembled the German G - 4 , the new rocket incorporated staged design , a completely new control system , and a new fuel . It was successfully tested on August 21 , 1957 , and became the world 's first fully operational ICBM the following month . It was later used to launch the first satellite into space , and derivatives launched all piloted Soviet spacecraft . The United States had multiple rocket programs divided among the different branches of the American armed services , which meant that each force developed its own ICBM program . The Air Force initiated ICBM research in 1945 with the MX - 774 . However , its funding was cancelled and only three partially successful launches were conducted in 1947 . In 1950 , von Braun began testing the Air Force PGM - 11 Redstone rocket family at Cape Canaveral . In 1951 , the Air Force began a new ICBM program called MX - 1593 , and by 1955 this program was receiving top - priority funding . The MX - 1593 program evolved to become the Atlas - A , with its maiden launch occurring June 11 , 1957 , becoming the first successful American ICBM . Its upgraded version , the Atlas - D rocket , later served as a nuclear ICBM and as the orbital launch vehicle for Project Mercury and the remote - controlled Agena Target Vehicle used in Project Gemini . With the Cold War as an engine for change in the ideological competition between the United States and the Soviet Union , a coherent space policy began to take shape in the United States during the late 1950s . Korolev took inspiration from the competition as well , achieving many firsts to counter the possibility that the United States might prevail . The Race begins ( edit ) Further information : Soviet space program and Space policy of the United States First artificial satellite ( edit ) In 1955 , with both the United States and the Soviet Union building ballistic missiles that could be utilized to launch objects into space , the `` starting line '' was drawn for the Space Race . In separate announcements four days apart , both nations publicly announced that they would launch artificial Earth satellites by 1957 or 1958 . On July 29 , 1955 , James C. Hagerty , president Dwight D. Eisenhower 's press secretary , announced that the United States intended to launch `` small Earth circling satellites '' between July 1 , 1957 , and December 31 , 1958 , as part of their contribution to the International Geophysical Year ( IGY ) . Four days later , at the Sixth Congress of International Astronautical Federation in Copenhagen , scientist Leonid I. Sedov spoke to international reporters at the Soviet embassy , and announced his country 's intention to launch a satellite as well , in the `` near future '' . On August 30 , 1955 , Korolev managed to get the Soviet Academy of Sciences to create a commission whose purpose was to beat the Americans into Earth orbit : this was the de facto start date for the Space Race . The Council of Ministers of the Soviet Union began a policy of treating development of its space program as a classified state secret . Initially , President Eisenhower was worried that a satellite passing above a nation at over 100 kilometers ( 62 mi ) , might be construed as violating that nation 's sovereign airspace . He was concerned that the Soviet Union would accuse the Americans of an illegal overflight , thereby scoring a propaganda victory at his expense . Eisenhower and his advisors believed that a nation 's airspace sovereignty did not extend into outer space , acknowledged as the Kármán line , and he used the 1957 -- 58 International Geophysical Year launches to establish this principle in international law . Eisenhower also feared that he might cause an international incident and be called a `` warmonger '' if he were to use military missiles as launchers . Therefore , he selected the untried Naval Research Laboratory 's Vanguard rocket , which was a research - only booster . This meant that von Braun 's team was not allowed to put a satellite into orbit with their Jupiter - C rocket , because of its intended use as a future military vehicle . On September 20 , 1956 , von Braun and his team did launch a Jupiter - C that was capable of putting a satellite into orbit , but the launch was used only as a suborbital test of nose cone reentry technology . Korolev received word about von Braun 's 1956 Jupiter - C test , but thinking it was a satellite mission that failed , he expedited plans to get his own satellite in orbit . Since his R - 7 was substantially more powerful than any of the American boosters , he made sure to take full advantage of this capability by designing Object D as his primary satellite . It was given the designation ' D ' , to distinguish it from other R - 7 payload designations ' A ' , ' B ' , ' V ' , and ' G ' which were nuclear weapon payloads . Object D dwarfed the proposed American satellites , by having a weight of 1,400 kilograms ( 3,100 lb ) , of which 300 kilograms ( 660 lb ) would be composed of scientific instruments that would photograph the Earth , take readings on radiation levels , and check on the planet 's magnetic field . However , things were not going along well with the design and manufacturing of the satellite , so in February 1957 , Korolev sought and received permission from the Council of Ministers to create a prosteishy sputnik ( PS - 1 ) , or simple satellite . The Council also decreed that Object D be postponed until April 1958 . The new sputnik was a shiny sphere that would be a much lighter craft , weighing 83.8 kilograms ( 185 lb ) and having a 58 - centimeter ( 23 in ) diameter . The satellite would not contain the complex instrumentation that Object D had , but had two radio transmitters operating on different short wave radio frequencies , the ability to detect if a meteoroid were to penetrate its pressure hull , and the ability to detect the density of the Earth 's thermosphere . Beep ... beep ... beep The signals of Sputnik 1 continued for 22 days <Td_colspan="2"> Problems playing this file ? See media help . Korolev was buoyed by the first successful launches of his R - 7 rocket in August and September , which paved the way for him to launch his sputnik . Word came that the Americans were planning to announce a major breakthrough at an International Geophysical Year conference at the National Academy of Sciences in Washington D.C. , with a paper entitled `` Satellite Over the Planet '' , on October 6 , 1957 . Korolev anticipated that von Braun might launch a Jupiter - C with a satellite payload on or around October 4 or 5 , in conjunction with the paper . He hastened the launch , moving it to October 4 . The launch vehicle for PS - 1 , was a modified R - 7 -- vehicle 8K71PS number M1 - PS -- without much of the test equipment and radio gear that was present in the previous launches . It arrived at the Soviet missile base Tyura - Tam in September and was prepared for its mission at launch site number one . On Friday , October 4 , 1957 , at exactly 10 : 28 : 34 pm Moscow time , the R - 7 , with the now named Sputnik 1 satellite , lifted off the launch pad , and placed this artificial `` moon '' into an orbit a few minutes later . This `` fellow traveler , '' as the name is translated in English , was a small , beeping ball , less than two feet in diameter and weighing less than 200 pounds . But the celebrations were muted at the launch control center until the down - range far east tracking station at Kamchatka received the first distinctive beep ... beep ... beep sounds from Sputnik 1 's radio transmitters , indicating that it was on its way to completing its first orbit . About 95 minutes after launch , the satellite flew over its launch site , and its radio signals were picked up by the engineers and military personnel at Tyura - Tam : that 's when Korolev and his team celebrated the first successful artificial satellite placed into Earth - orbit . US reaction ( edit ) Main article : Sputnik crisis The Soviet success raised a great deal of concern in the United States . For example , economist Bernard Baruch wrote in an open letter titled `` The Lessons of Defeat '' to the New York Herald Tribune : `` While we devote our industrial and technological power to producing new model automobiles and more gadgets , the Soviet Union is conquering space ... It is Russia , not the United States , who has had the imagination to hitch its wagon to the stars and the skill to reach for the moon and all but grasp it . America is worried . It should be . '' Eisenhower ordered project Vanguard to move up its timetable and launch its satellite much sooner than originally planned . The December 6 , 1957 Project Vanguard launch failure occurred at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida , broadcast live in front of a US television audience . It was a monumental failure , exploding a few seconds after launch , and it became an international joke . The satellite appeared in newspapers under the names Flopnik , Stayputnik , Kaputnik , and Dudnik . In the United Nations , the Russian delegate offered the US representative aid `` under the Soviet program of technical assistance to backwards nations . '' Only in the wake of this very public failure did von Braun 's Redstone team get the go - ahead to launch their Jupiter - C rocket as soon as they could . In Britain , the US 's Western Cold War ally , the reaction was mixed : some celebrated the fact that the Soviets had reached space first , while others feared the destructive potential that military uses of spacecraft might bring . William Hayward Pickering , James Van Allen , and Wernher von Braun display a full - scale model of Explorer 1 at a Washington , DC news conference after confirmation the satellite was in orbit On January 31 , 1958 , nearly four months after the launch of Sputnik 1 , von Braun and the United States successfully launched its first satellite on a four - stage Juno I rocket derived from the US Army 's Redstone missile , at Cape Canaveral . The satellite Explorer 1 was 30.66 pounds ( 13.91 kg ) in mass . The payload of Explorer 1 weighed 18.35 pounds ( 8.32 kg ) . It carried a micrometeorite gauge and a Geiger - Müller tube . It passed in and out of the Earth - encompassing radiation belt with its 194 - by - 1,368 - nautical - mile ( 360 by 2,534 km ) orbit , therefore saturating the tube 's capacity and proving what Dr. James Van Allen , a space scientist at the University of Iowa , had theorized . The belt , named the Van Allen radiation belt , is a doughnut - shaped zone of high - level radiation intensity around the Earth above the magnetic equator. Van Allen was also the man who designed and built the satellite instrumentation of Explorer 1 . The satellite measured three phenomena : cosmic ray and radiation levels , the temperature in the spacecraft , and the frequency of collisions with micrometeorites . The satellite had no memory for data storage , therefore it had to transmit continuously . In March 1958 a second satellite was sent into orbit with augmented cosmic ray instruments . On April 2 , 1958 , President Eisenhower reacted to the Soviet space lead in launching the first satellite , by recommending to the US Congress that a civilian agency be established to direct nonmilitary space activities . Congress , led by Senate Majority Leader Lyndon B. Johnson , responded by passing the National Aeronautics and Space Act , which Eisenhower signed into law on July 29 , 1958 . This law turned the National Advisory Committee on Aeronautics into the National Aeronautics and Space Administration ( NASA ) . It also created a Civilian - Military Liaison Committee , chaired by the President , responsible for coordinating the nation 's civilian and military space programs . On October 21 , 1959 , Eisenhower approved the transfer of the Army 's remaining space - related activities to NASA . On July 1 , 1960 , the Redstone Arsenal became NASA 's George C. Marshall Space Flight Center , with von Braun as its first director . Development of the Saturn rocket family , which when mature , gave the US parity with the Soviets in terms of lifting capability , was thus transferred to NASA . Uncrewed lunar probes ( edit ) In 1958 , Korolev upgraded the R - 7 to be able to launch a 400 - kilogram ( 880 lb ) payload to the Moon . Three secret 1958 attempts to launch Luna E-1 - class impactor probes failed . The fourth attempt , Luna 1 , launched successfully on January 2 , 1959 , but missed the Moon . The fifth attempt on June 18 also failed at launch . The 390 - kilogram ( 860 lb ) Luna 2 successfully impacted the Moon on September 14 , 1959 . The 278.5 - kilogram ( 614 lb ) Luna 3 successfully flew by the Moon and sent back pictures of its far side on October 6 , 1959 . The US reacted to the Luna program by embarking on the Ranger program in 1959 , managed by NASA 's Jet Propulsion Laboratory . The Block I Ranger 1 and Ranger 2 suffered Atlas - Agena launch failures in August and November 1961 . The 727 - pound ( 330 kg ) Block II Ranger 3 launched successfully on January 26 , 1962 , but missed the Moon . The 730 - pound ( 330 kg ) Ranger 4 became the first US spacecraft to reach the Moon , but its solar panels and navigational system failed near the Moon and it impacted the far side without returning any scientific data . Ranger 5 ran out of power and missed the Moon by 725 kilometers ( 391 nmi ) on October 21 , 1962 . The first successful Ranger mission was the 806 - pound ( 366 kg ) Block III Ranger 7 which impacted on July 31 , 1964 . First human in space ( edit ) Yuri Gagarin , the first person in space , 1961 By 1959 , American observers believed that the Soviet Union would be the first to get a human into space , because of the time needed to prepare for Mercury 's first launch . On April 12 , 1961 , the USSR surprised the world again by launching Yuri Gagarin into a single orbit around the Earth in a craft they called Vostok 1 . They dubbed Gagarin the first cosmonaut , roughly translated from Russian and Greek as `` sailor of the universe '' . Although he had the ability to take over manual control of his capsule in an emergency by opening an envelope he had in the cabin that contained a code that could be typed into the computer , it was flown in an automatic mode as a precaution ; medical science at that time did not know what would happen to a human in the weightlessness of space . Vostok 1 orbited the Earth for 108 minutes and made its reentry over the Soviet Union , with Gagarin ejecting from the spacecraft at 7,000 meters ( 23,000 ft ) , and landing by parachute . The Fédération Aéronautique Internationale ( International Federation of Aeronautics ) credited Gagarin with the world 's first human space flight , although their qualifying rules for aeronautical records at the time required pilots to take off and land with their craft . For this reason , the Soviet Union omitted from their FAI submission the fact that Gagarin did not land with his capsule . When the FAI filing for Gherman Titov 's second Vostok flight in August 1961 disclosed the ejection landing technique , the FAI committee decided to investigate , and concluded that the technological accomplishment of human spaceflight lay in the safe launch , orbiting , and return , rather than the manner of landing , and revised their rules , keeping Gagarin 's and Titov 's records intact . Gagarin became a national hero of the Soviet Union and the Eastern Bloc , and a worldwide celebrity . Moscow and other cities in the USSR held mass demonstrations , the scale of which was second only to the World War II Victory Parade of 1945 . April 12 was declared Cosmonautics Day in the USSR , and is celebrated today in Russia as one of the official `` Commemorative Dates of Russia . '' In 2011 , it was declared the International Day of Human Space Flight by the United Nations . Poyekhali ! Gagarin 's voice <Td_colspan="2"> Problems playing this file ? See media help . The radio communication between the launch control room and Gagarin included the following dialogue at the moment of rocket launch : Korolev : `` Preliminary stage ... intermediate ... main ... lift off ! We wish you a good flight . Everything is all right . '' Gagarin : `` Поехали ! '' ( Poyekhali ! - Let 's go ! ) . Gagarin 's informal poyekhali ! became a historical phrase in the Eastern Bloc , used to refer to the beginning of the human space flight era . First American in space ( edit ) Alan Shepard , the first American in space , 1961 The US Air Force had been developing a program to launch the first man in space , named Man in Space Soonest . This program studied several different types of one - man space vehicles , settling on a ballistic re-entry capsule launched on a derivative Atlas missile , and selecting a group of nine candidate pilots . After NASA 's creation , the program was transferred over to the civilian agency and renamed Project Mercury on November 26 , 1958 . NASA selected a new group of astronaut ( from the Greek for `` star sailor '' ) candidates from Navy , Air Force and Marine test pilots , and narrowed this down to a group of seven for the program . Capsule design and astronaut training began immediately , working toward preliminary suborbital flights on the Redstone missile , followed by orbital flights on the Atlas . Each flight series would first start uncrewed , then carry a non-human primate , then finally humans . On May 5 , 1961 , Alan Shepard became the first American in space , launched in a ballistic trajectory on Mercury - Redstone 3 , in a spacecraft he named Freedom 7 . Though he did not achieve orbit like Gagarin , he was the first person to exercise manual control over his spacecraft 's attitude and retro - rocket firing . After his successful return , Shepard was celebrated as a national hero , honored with parades in Washington , New York and Los Angeles , and received the NASA Distinguished Service Medal from President John F. Kennedy . Kennedy directs the Race toward the Moon ( edit ) See also : Moon landing These are extraordinary times . And we face an extraordinary challenge . Our strength , as well as our convictions , have imposed upon this nation the role of leader in freedom 's cause . ... if we are to win the battle that is now going on around the world between freedom and tyranny , the dramatic achievements in space which occurred in recent weeks should have made clear to us all , as did the Sputnik in 1957 , the impact of this adventure on the minds of men everywhere , who are attempting to make a determination of which road they should take ... Now it is time to take longer strides -- time for a great new American enterprise -- time for this nation to take a clearly leading role in space achievement , which in many ways may hold the key to our future on Earth . ... Recognizing the head start obtained by the Soviets with their large rocket engines , which gives them many months of lead - time , and recognizing the likelihood that they will exploit this lead for some time to come in still more impressive successes , we nevertheless are required to make new efforts on our own . ... I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal , before this decade is out , of landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to the Earth . No single space project in this period will be more impressive to mankind , or more important for the long - range exploration of space , and none will be so difficult or expensive to accomplish . John F. Kennedy , Special Message to Congress on Urgent National Needs , May 25 , 1961 Before Gagarin 's flight , US President John F. Kennedy 's support for America 's crewed space program was lukewarm . Jerome Wiesner of MIT , who served as a science advisor to presidents Eisenhower and Kennedy , and himself an opponent of crewed space exploration , remarked , `` If Kennedy could have opted out of a big space program without hurting the country in his judgment , he would have . '' As late as March 1961 , when NASA administrator James E. Webb submitted a budget request to fund a Moon landing before 1970 , Kennedy rejected it because it was simply too expensive . Some were surprised by Kennedy 's eventual support of NASA and the space program because of how often he had attacked the Eisenhower administration 's inefficiency during the election . Gagarin 's flight changed this ; now Kennedy sensed the humiliation and fear on the part of the American public over the Soviet lead . Additionally , the Bay of Pigs invasion , planned before his term began but executed during it , was an embarrassment to his administration due to the colossal failure of the American forces . Looking for something to save political face , he sent a memo dated April 20 , 1961 , to Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson , asking him to look into the state of America 's space program , and into programs that could offer NASA the opportunity to catch up . The two major options at the time seemed to be , either establishment of an Earth orbital space station , or a crewed landing on the Moon . Johnson , in turn , consulted with von Braun , who answered Kennedy 's questions based on his estimates of US and Soviet rocket lifting capability . Based on this , Johnson responded to Kennedy , concluding that much more was needed to reach a position of leadership , and recommending that the crewed Moon landing was far enough in the future that the US had a fighting chance to achieve it first . Kennedy ultimately decided to pursue what became the Apollo program , and on May 25 took the opportunity to ask for Congressional support in a Cold War speech titled `` Special Message on Urgent National Needs '' . Full text He justified the program in terms of its importance to national security , and its focus of the nation 's energies on other scientific and social fields . He rallied popular support for the program in his `` We choose to go to the Moon '' speech , on September 12 , 1962 , before a large crowd at Rice University Stadium , in Houston , Texas , near the construction site of the new Manned Spacecraft Center facility . Full text Khrushchev responded to Kennedy 's implicit challenge with silence , refusing to publicly confirm or deny the Soviets were pursuing a `` Moon race '' . As later disclosed , the Soviet Union secretly pursued a crewed lunar program until 1974 . Completion of Vostok and Mercury programs ( edit ) Mercury ( edit ) John Glenn , the first American in orbit , 1962 American Virgil `` Gus '' Grissom repeated Shepard 's suborbital flight in Liberty Bell 7 on July 21 , 1961 . Almost a year after the Soviet Union put a human into orbit , astronaut John Glenn became the first American to orbit the Earth , on February 20 , 1962 . His Mercury - Atlas 6 mission completed three orbits in the Friendship 7 spacecraft , and splashed down safely in the Atlantic Ocean , after a tense reentry , due to what falsely appeared from the telemetry data to be a loose heat - shield . As the first American in orbit , Glenn became a national hero , and received a ticker - tape parade in New York City , reminiscent of that given for Charles Lindbergh . On February 23 , 1962 , President Kennedy escorted him in a parade at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station , where he awarded Glenn with the NASA service medal . The United States launched three more Mercury flights after Glenn 's : Aurora 7 on May 24 , 1962 , duplicated Glenn 's three orbits ; Sigma 7 on October 3 , 1962 , six orbits ; and Faith 7 on May 15 , 1963 , 22 orbits ( 32.4 hours ) , the maximum capability of the spacecraft . NASA at first intended to launch one more mission , extending the spacecraft 's endurance to three days , but since this would not beat the Soviet record , it was decided instead to concentrate on developing Project Gemini . Vostok ( edit ) Replica of the Vostok capsule Gherman Titov became the first Soviet cosmonaut to exercise manual control of his Vostok 2 craft on August 6 , 1961 . The Soviet Union demonstrated 24 - hour launch pad turnaround and the capability to launch two piloted spacecraft , Vostok 3 and Vostok 4 , in essentially identical orbits , on August 11 and 12 , 1962 . The two spacecraft came within approximately 6.5 kilometers ( 4.0 mi ) of one another , close enough for radio communication . Vostok 4 also set a record of nearly four days in space . Though the two craft 's orbits were as nearly identical as possible given the accuracy of the launch rocket 's guidance system , slight variations still existed which drew the two craft at first as close to each other as 6.5 kilometers ( 3.5 nautical miles ) , then as far apart as 2,850 kilometers ( 1,540 nautical miles ) . There were no maneuvering rockets on the Vostok to permit space rendezvous , required to keep two spacecraft a controlled distance apart . Valentina Tereshkova The Soviet Union duplicated its dual - launch feat with Vostok 5 and Vostok 6 ( June 16 , 1963 ) . This time they launched the first woman ( also the first civilian ) , Valentina Tereshkova , into space on Vostok 6 . Launching a woman was reportedly Korolev 's idea , and it was accomplished purely for propaganda value . Tereshkova was one of a small corps of female cosmonauts who were amateur parachutists , but Tereshkova was the only one to fly . The USSR did n't again open its cosmonaut corps to women until 1980 , two years after the United States opened its astronaut corps to women . The Soviets kept the details and true appearance of the Vostok capsule secret until the April 1965 Moscow Economic Exhibition , where it was first displayed without its aerodynamic nose cone concealing the spherical capsule . The `` Vostok spaceship '' had been first displayed at the July 1961 Tushino air show , mounted on its launch vehicle 's third stage , with the nose cone in place . A tail section with eight fins was also added , in an apparent attempt to confuse western observers . This spurious tail section also appeared on official commemorative stamps and a documentary . Kennedy proposes a joint US - USSR program ( edit ) On September 20 , 1963 , in a speech before the United Nations General Assembly , President Kennedy proposed that the United States and the Soviet Union join forces in an effort to reach the Moon . Kennedy thus changed his mind regarding the desirability of the space race , preferring instead to ease tensions with the Soviet Union by cooperating on projects such as a joint lunar landing . Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev initially rejected Kennedy 's proposal . However , on October 2 , 1997 , it was reported that Khrushchev 's son Sergei claimed Khrushchev was poised to accept Kennedy 's proposal at the time of Kennedy 's assassination on November 22 , 1963 . During the next few weeks he reportedly concluded that both nations might realize cost benefits and technological gains from a joint venture , and decided to accept Kennedy 's offer based on a measure of rapport during their years as leaders of the world 's two superpowers , but changed his mind and dropped the idea since he did not have the same trust for Kennedy 's successor , Lyndon Johnson . As President , Johnson steadfastly pursued the Gemini and Apollo programs , promoting them as Kennedy 's legacy to the American public . One week after Kennedy 's death , he issued an executive order renaming the Cape Canaveral and Apollo launch facilities after Kennedy . Gemini and Voskhod ( edit ) Focused by the commitment to a Moon landing , in January 1962 the US announced Project Gemini , a two - man spacecraft that would support the later three - man Apollo by developing the key spaceflight technologies of space rendezvous and docking of two craft , flight durations of sufficient length to simulate going to the Moon and back , and extra-vehicular activity to accomplish useful work outside the spacecraft . Meanwhile , Korolev had planned further , long - term missions for the Vostok spacecraft , and had four Vostoks in various stages of fabrication in late 1963 at his OKB - 1 facilities . At that time , the Americans announced their ambitious plans for the Project Gemini flight schedule . These plans included major advancements in spacecraft capabilities , including a two - person spacecraft , the ability to change orbits , the capacity to perform an extravehicular activity ( EVA ) , and the goal of docking with another spacecraft . These represented major advances over the previous Mercury or Vostok capsules , and Korolev felt the need to try to beat the Americans to many of these innovations . Korolev already had begun designing the Vostok 's replacement , the next - generation Soyuz spacecraft , a multi-cosmonaut spacecraft that had at least the same capabilities as the Gemini spacecraft . Soyuz would not be available for at least three years , and it could not be called upon to deal with this new American challenge in 1964 or 1965 . Political pressure in early 1964 -- which some sources claim was from Khrushchev while other sources claim was from other Communist Party officials -- pushed him to modify his four remaining Vostoks to beat the Americans to new space firsts in the size of flight crews , and the duration of missions . Voskhod program ( edit ) Main article : Voskhod programme The Voskhod 1 and 2 space capsules The greater advances of the Soviet space program at the time allowed their space program to achieve other significant firsts , including the first EVA `` spacewalk '' and the first mission performed by a crew in shirt - sleeves . Gemini took a year longer than planned to accomplish its first flight , allowing the Soviets to achieve another first , launching Voskhod 1 on October 12 , 1964 , the first spacecraft with a three - cosmonaut crew . The USSR touted another technological achievement during this mission : it was the first space flight during which cosmonauts performed in a shirt - sleeve - environment . However , flying without spacesuits was not due to safety improvements in the Soviet spacecraft 's environmental systems ; rather this innovation was accomplished because the craft 's limited cabin space did not allow for spacesuits . Flying without spacesuits exposed the cosmonauts to significant risk in the event of potentially fatal cabin depressurization . This feat was not repeated until the US Apollo Command Module flew in 1968 ; this later mission was designed from the outset to safely transport three astronauts in a shirt - sleeve environment while in space . Between October 14 -- 16 , 1964 , Leonid Brezhnev and a small cadre of high - ranking Communist Party officials , deposed Khrushchev as Soviet government leader a day after Voskhod 1 landed , in what was called the `` Wednesday conspiracy '' . The new political leaders , along with Korolev , ended the technologically troublesome Voskhod program , cancelling Voskhod 3 and 4 , which were in the planning stages , and started concentrating on the race to the Moon . Voskhod 2 ended up being Korolev 's final achievement before his death on January 14 , 1966 , as it became the last of the many space firsts that demonstrated the USSR 's domination in spacecraft technology during the early 1960s . According to historian Asif Siddiqi , Korolev 's accomplishments marked `` the absolute zenith of the Soviet space program , one never , ever attained since . '' There was a two - year pause in Soviet piloted space flights while Voskhod 's replacement , the Soyuz spacecraft , was designed and developed . On March 18 , 1965 , about a week before the first American piloted Project Gemini space flight , the USSR accelerated the competition , by launching the two - cosmonaut Voskhod 2 mission with Pavel Belyayev and Alexey Leonov . Voskhod 2 's design modifications included the addition of an inflatable airlock to allow for extravehicular activity ( EVA ) , also known as a spacewalk , while keeping the cabin pressurized so that the capsule 's electronics would not overheat . Leonov performed the first - ever EVA as part of the mission . A fatality was narrowly avoided when Leonov 's spacesuit expanded in the vacuum of space , preventing him from re-entering the airlock . In order to overcome this , he had to partially depressurize his spacesuit to a potentially dangerous level . He succeeded in safely re-entering the ship , but he and Belyayev faced further challenges when the spacecraft 's atmospheric controls flooded the cabin with 45 % pure oxygen , which had to be lowered to acceptable levels before re-entry . The reentry involved two more challenges : an improperly timed retrorocket firing caused the Voskhod 2 to land 386 kilometers ( 240 mi ) off its designated target area , the town of Perm ; and the instrument compartment 's failure to detach from the descent apparatus caused the spacecraft to become unstable during reentry . Progress in the Space Race , showing the US passing the Soviets in 1965 Project Gemini ( edit ) Main article : Project Gemini Rendezvous of Gemini 6 and 7 , December 1965 Though delayed a year to reach its first flight , Gemini was able to take advantage of the USSR 's two - year hiatus after Voskhod , which enabled the US to catch up and surpass the previous Soviet lead in piloted spaceflight . Gemini achieved several significant firsts during the course of ten piloted missions : On Gemini 3 ( March 1965 ) , astronauts Virgil `` Gus '' Grissom and John W. Young became the first to demonstrate their ability to change their craft 's orbit . On Gemini 5 ( August 1965 ) , astronauts L. Gordon Cooper and Charles `` Pete '' Conrad set a record of almost eight days in space , long enough for a piloted lunar mission . On Gemini 6A ( December 1965 ) , Command Pilot Wally Schirra achieved the first space rendezvous with Gemini 7 , accurately matching his orbit to that of the other craft , station - keeping for three consecutive orbits at distances as close as 1 foot ( 0.30 m ) . Gemini 7 also set a human spaceflight endurance record of fourteen days for Frank Borman and James A. Lovell , which stood until both nations started launching space laboratories in the early 1970s . On Gemini 8 ( March 1966 ) , Command Pilot Neil Armstrong achieved the first docking between two spacecraft , his Gemini craft and an Agena target vehicle . Gemini 11 ( September 1966 ) , commanded by Conrad , achieved the first direct - ascent rendezvous with its Agena target on the first orbit , and used the Agena 's rocket to achieve an apogee of 742 nautical miles ( 1,374 km ) , the crewed Earth orbit record still current as of 2015 . On Gemini 12 ( November 1966 ) , Edwin E. `` Buzz '' Aldrin spent over five hours working comfortably during three ( EVA ) sessions , finally proving that humans could perform productive tasks outside their spacecraft . This proved to be the most difficult goal to achieve . Most of the novice pilots on the early missions would command the later missions . In this way , Project Gemini built up spaceflight experience for the pool of astronauts for the Apollo lunar missions . Soviet crewed Moon programs ( edit ) Main article : Soviet crewed lunar programs Soyuz 7K - L3 ( Lunniy Orbitalny Korabl ) , alongside the Apollo Command / Service Module to scale LK lunar lander ( Lunniy Korabl ) , alongside the Apollo Lunar Module to scale Korolev 's design bureau produced two prospectuses for circumlunar spaceflight ( March 1962 and May 1963 ) , the main spacecraft for which were early versions of his Soyuz design . Soviet Communist Party Central Committee Command 655 - 268 officially established two secret , competing crewed programs for circumlunar flights and lunar landings , on August 3 , 1964 . The circumlunar flights were planned to occur in 1967 , and the landings to start in 1968 . The circumlunar program ( Zond ) , created by Vladimir Chelomey 's design bureau OKB - 52 , was to fly two cosmonauts in a stripped - down Soyuz 7K - L1 , launched by Chelomey 's Proton UR - 500 rocket . The Zond sacrificed habitable cabin volume for equipment , by omitting the Soyuz orbital module . Chelomey gained favor with Khruschev by employing members of his family . Korolev 's lunar landing program was designated N1 / L3 , for its N1 super rocket and a more advanced Soyuz 7K - L3 spacecraft , also known as the lunar orbital module ( `` Lunniy Orbitalny Korabl '' , LOK ) , with a crew of two . A separate lunar lander ( `` Lunniy Korabl '' , LK ) , would carry a single cosmonaut to the lunar surface . The N1 / L3 launch vehicle had three stages to Earth orbit , a fourth stage for Earth departure , and a fifth stage for lunar landing assist . The combined space vehicle was roughly the same height and takeoff mass as the three - stage US Apollo / Saturn V and exceeded its takeoff thrust by 28 % , but had only roughly half the translunar injection payload capability . Following Khruschev 's ouster from power , Chelomey 's Zond program was merged into the N1 / L3 program . Outer space Treaty ( edit ) The US and USSR began discussions on the peaceful uses of space as early as 1958 , presenting issues for debate to the United Nations , which created a Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space in 1959 . On May 10 , 1962 , Vice President Johnson addressed the Second National Conference on the Peaceful Uses of Space revealing that the United States and the USSR both supported a resolution passed by the Political Committee of the UN General Assembly on December 1962 , which not only urged member nations to `` extend the rules of international law to outer space , '' but to also cooperate in its exploration . Following the passing of this resolution , Kennedy commenced his communications proposing a cooperative American / Soviet space program . The UN ultimately created a Treaty on Principles Governing the Activities of States in the Exploration and Use of Outer Space , including the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies , which was signed by the United States , USSR , and the United Kingdom on January 27 , 1967 , and went into force the following October 10 . Wikisource has original text related to this article : Outer Space Treaty of 1967 This treaty : bars party States from placing weapons of mass destruction in Earth orbit , on the Moon , or any other celestial body ; exclusively limits the use of the Moon and other celestial bodies to peaceful purposes , and expressly prohibits their use for testing weapons of any kind , conducting military maneuvers , or establishing military bases , installations , and fortifications ; declares that the exploration of outer space shall be done to benefit all countries and shall be free for exploration and use by all the States ; explicitly forbids any government from claiming a celestial resource such as the Moon or a planet , claiming that they are the common heritage of mankind , `` not subject to national appropriation by claim of sovereignty , by means of use or occupation , or by any other means '' . However , the State that launches a space object retains jurisdiction and control over that object ; holds any State liable for damages caused by their space object ; declares that `` the activities of non-governmental entities in outer space , including the Moon and other celestial bodies , shall require authorization and continuing supervision by the appropriate State Party to the Treaty '' , and `` States Parties shall bear international responsibility for national space activities whether carried out by governmental or non-governmental entities '' ; and `` A State Party to the Treaty which has reason to believe that an activity or experiment planned by another State Party in outer space , including the Moon and other celestial bodies , would cause potentially harmful interference with activities in the peaceful exploration and use of outer space , including the Moon and other celestial bodies , may request consultation concerning the activity or experiment . '' The treaty remains in force , signed by 107 member states . -- As of July 2017 Disaster strikes both sides ( edit ) In 1967 , both nations faced serious challenges that brought their programs to temporary halts . Both had been rushing at full - speed toward the first piloted flights of Apollo and Soyuz , without paying due diligence to growing design and manufacturing problems . The results proved fatal to both pioneering crews . Charred interior of the Apollo 1 spacecraft after the fire that killed the first crew On January 27 , 1967 , the same day the US and USSR signed the Outer Space Treaty , the crew of the first crewed Apollo mission , Command Pilot Virgil `` Gus '' Grissom , Senior Pilot Ed White , and Pilot Roger Chaffee , were killed in a fire that swept through their spacecraft cabin during a ground test , less than a month before the planned February 21 launch . An investigative board determined the fire was probably caused by an electrical spark , and quickly grew out of control , fed by the spacecraft 's pure oxygen atmosphere . Crew escape was made impossible by inability to open the plug door hatch cover against the greater - than - atmospheric internal pressure . The board also found design and construction flaws in the spacecraft , and procedural failings , including failure to appreciate the hazard of the pure - oxygen atmosphere , as well as inadequate safety procedures . All these flaws had to be corrected over the next twenty - two months until the first piloted flight could be made . Mercury and Gemini veteran Grissom had been a favored choice of Deke Slayton , NASA 's Director of Flight Crew Operations , to make the first piloted landing . Commemorative plaque and the `` Fallen Astronaut '' sculpture left on the Moon in 1971 by the crew of Apollo 15 in memory of 14 deceased NASA astronauts and USSR cosmonauts On April 24 , 1967 , the single pilot of Soyuz 1 , Vladimir Komarov , became the first in - flight spaceflight fatality . The mission was planned to be a three - day test , to include the first Soviet docking with an unpiloted Soyuz 2 , but the mission was plagued with problems . Early on , Komarov 's craft lacked sufficient electrical power because only one of two solar panels had deployed . Then the automatic attitude control system began malfunctioning and eventually failed completely , resulting in the craft spinning wildly . Komarov was able to stop the spin with the manual system , which was only partially effective . The flight controllers aborted his mission after only one day . During the emergency re-entry , a fault in the landing parachute system caused the primary chute to fail , and the reserve chute became tangled with the drogue chute , causing descent speed to reach as high as 40 m / s ( 140 km / h ; 89 mph ) . Shortly thereafter , Soyuz 1 impacted the ground 3 km ( 1.9 mi ) west of Karabutak , exploding into a ball of flames . The official autopsy states Komarov died of blunt force trauma on impact , and that the subsequent heat mutilation of his corpse was a result of the explosive impact . Fixing the spacecraft 's faults caused an eighteen - month delay before piloted Soyuz flights could resume . Onward to the Moon ( edit ) The United States recovered from the Apollo 1 fire , fixing the fatal flaws in an improved version of the Block II command module . The US proceeded with unpiloted test launches of the Saturn V launch vehicle ( Apollo 4 and Apollo 6 ) and the Lunar Module ( Apollo 5 ) during the latter half of 1967 and early 1968 . Apollo 1 's mission to check out the Apollo Command / Service Module in Earth orbit was accomplished by Grissom 's backup crew commanded by Walter Schirra on Apollo 7 , launched on October 11 , 1968 . The eleven - day mission was a total success , as the spacecraft performed a virtually flawless mission , paving the way for the United States to continue with its lunar mission schedule . Artist view of Soyuz 4 and Soyuz 5 after docking The Soviet Union also fixed the parachute and control problems with Soyuz , and the next piloted mission Soyuz 3 was launched on October 26 , 1968 . The goal was to complete Komarov 's rendezvous and docking mission with the un-piloted Soyuz 2 . Ground controllers brought the two craft to within 200 meters ( 660 ft ) of each other , then cosmonaut Georgy Beregovoy took control . He got within 40 meters ( 130 ft ) of his target , but was unable to dock before expending 90 percent of his maneuvering fuel , due to a piloting error that put his spacecraft into the wrong orientation and forced Soyuz 2 to automatically turn away from his approaching craft . The first docking of Soviet spacecraft was finally realized in January 1969 by the Soyuz 4 and Soyuz 5 missions . It was the first - ever docking of two crewed spacecraft , and the first transfer of crew from one space vehicle to another . Soyuz 7K - L1 Zond spacecraft . Artist view The Soviet Zond spacecraft was not yet ready for piloted circumlunar missions in 1968 , after five unsuccessful and partially successful automated test launches : Cosmos 146 on March 10 , 1967 ; Cosmos 154 on April 8 , 1967 ; Zond 1967A September 27 , 1967 ; Zond 1967B on November 22 , 1967 . Zond 4 was launched on March 2 , 1968 , and successfully made a circumlunar flight . After its successful flight around the Moon , Zond 4 encountered problems with its Earth reentry on March 9 , and was ordered destroyed by an explosive charge 15,000 meters ( 49,000 ft ) over the Gulf of Guinea . The Soviet official announcement said that Zond 4 was an automated test flight which ended with its intentional destruction , due to its recovery trajectory positioning it over the Atlantic Ocean instead of over the USSR . Earthrise as seen from Apollo 8 , December 24 , 1968 ( NASA ) During the summer of 1968 , the Apollo program hit another snag : the first pilot - rated Lunar Module ( LM ) was not ready for orbital tests in time for a December 1968 launch . NASA planners overcame this challenge by changing the mission flight order , delaying the first LM flight until March 1969 , and sending Apollo 8 into lunar orbit without the LM in December . This mission was in part motivated by intelligence rumors the Soviet Union might be ready for a piloted Zond flight during late 1968 . In September 1968 , Zond 5 made a circumlunar flight with tortoises on board and returned to Earth , accomplishing the first successful water landing of the Soviet space program in the Indian Ocean . It also scared NASA planners , as it took them several days to figure out that it was only an automated flight , not piloted , because voice recordings were transmitted from the craft en route to the Moon . On November 10 , 1968 , another automated test flight , Zond 6 was launched , but this time encountered difficulties in its Earth reentry , and depressurized and deployed its parachute too early , causing it to crash - land only 16 kilometers ( 9.9 mi ) from where it had been launched six days earlier . It turned out there was no chance of a piloted Soviet circumlunar flight during 1968 , due to the unreliability of the Zonds . The Lunar Module flew in lunar orbit on Apollo 10 , May 22 -- 23 , 1969 On December 21 , 1968 , Frank Borman , James Lovell , and William Anders became the first humans to ride the Saturn V rocket into space on Apollo 8 . They also became the first to leave low - Earth orbit and go to another celestial body , and entered lunar orbit on December 24 . They made ten orbits in twenty hours , and transmitted one of the most watched TV broadcasts in history , with their Christmas Eve program from lunar orbit , that concluded with a reading from the biblical Book of Genesis . Two and a half hours after the broadcast , they fired their engine to perform the first trans - Earth injection to leave lunar orbit and return to the Earth . Apollo 8 safely landed in the Pacific Ocean on December 27 , in NASA 's first dawn splashdown and recovery . The American Lunar Module was finally ready for a successful piloted test flight in low Earth orbit on Apollo 9 in March 1969 . The next mission , Apollo 10 , conducted a `` dress rehearsal '' for the first landing in May 1969 , flying the LM in lunar orbit as close as 47,400 feet ( 14.4 km ) above the surface , the point where the powered descent to the surface would begin . With the LM proven to work well , the next step was to attempt the landing . Unknown to the Americans , the Soviet Moon program was in deep trouble . After two successive launch failures of the N1 rocket in 1969 , Soviet plans for a piloted landing suffered delay . The launch pad explosion of the N - 1 on July 3 , 1969 , was a significant setback . The rocket hit the pad after an engine shutdown , destroying itself and the launch facility . Without the N - 1 rocket , the USSR could not send a large enough payload to the Moon to land a human and return him safely . Apollo 11 ( edit ) Main article : Apollo 11 American Buzz Aldrin during the first Moon walk in 1969 Apollo 11 was prepared with the goal of a July landing in the Sea of Tranquility . The crew , selected in January 1969 , consisted of commander ( CDR ) Neil Armstrong , Command Module Pilot ( CMP ) Michael Collins , and Lunar Module Pilot ( LMP ) Edwin `` Buzz '' Aldrin . They trained for the mission until just before the launch day . On July 16 , 1969 , at exactly 9 : 32 am EDT , the Saturn V rocket , AS - 506 , lifted off from Kennedy Space Center Launch Complex 39 in Florida . The trip to the Moon took just over three days . After achieving orbit , Armstrong and Aldrin transferred into the Lunar Module , named Eagle , and after a landing gear inspection by Collins remaining in the Command / Service Module Columbia , began their descent . After overcoming several computer overload alarms caused by an antenna switch left in the wrong position , and a slight downrange error , Armstrong took over manual flight control at about 180 meters ( 590 ft ) , and guided the Lunar Module to a safe landing spot at 20 : 18 : 04 UTC , July 20 , 1969 ( 3 : 17 : 04 pm CDT ) . The first humans on the Moon waited six hours before they left their craft . At 02 : 56 UTC , July 21 ( 9 : 56 pm CDT July 20 ) , Armstrong became the first human to set foot on the Moon . Neil Armstrong 's historic first words on the Moon . `` That 's one small step for ( a ) man , one giant leap for mankind . '' <Td_colspan="2"> Problems playing this file ? See media help . The first step was witnessed by at least one - fifth of the population of Earth , or about 723 million people . His first words when he stepped off the LM 's landing footpad were , `` That 's one small step for ( a ) man , one giant leap for mankind . '' Aldrin joined him on the surface almost 20 minutes later . Altogether , they spent just under two and one - quarter hours outside their craft . The next day , they performed the first launch from another celestial body , and rendezvoused back with Columbia . Apollo 11 left lunar orbit and returned to Earth , landing safely in the Pacific Ocean on July 24 , 1969 . When the spacecraft splashed down , 2,982 days had passed since Kennedy 's commitment to landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to the Earth before the end of the decade ; the mission was completed with 161 days to spare . With the safe completion of the Apollo 11 mission , the Americans won the race to the Moon . The Race winds down ( edit ) Apollo 17 's Saturn V in 1972 Moonwalk , December 13 , 1972 NASA had ambitious follow - on human spaceflight plans as it reached its lunar goal , but soon discovered it had expended most of its political capital to do so . The first landing was followed by another , precision landing on Apollo 12 in November 1969 . NASA had achieved its first landing goal with enough Apollo spacecraft and Saturn V launchers left for eight follow - on lunar landings through Apollo 20 , conducting extended - endurance missions and transporting the landing crews in Lunar Roving Vehicles on the last five . They also planned an Apollo Applications Program to develop a longer - duration Earth orbital workshop ( later named Skylab ) to be constructed in orbit from a spent S - IVB upper stage , using several launches of the smaller Saturn IB launch vehicle . But planners soon decided this could be done more efficiently by using the two live stages of a Saturn V to launch the workshop pre-fabricated from an S - IVB ( which was also the Saturn V third stage ) , which immediately removed Apollo 20 . Belt - tightening budget cuts soon led NASA to cut Apollo 18 and 19 as well , but keep three extended / Lunar Rover missions . Apollo 13 encountered an in - flight spacecraft failure and had to abort its lunar landing in April 1970 , returning its crew safely but temporarily grounding the program again . It resumed with four successful landings on Apollo 14 ( February 1971 ) , Apollo 15 ( July 1971 ) , Apollo 16 ( April 1972 ) , and Apollo 17 ( December 1972 ) . In February 1969 , President Richard M. Nixon convened a Space Task Group to set recommendations for the future US civilian space program , headed by his Vice President Spiro T. Agnew . Agnew was an enthusiastic proponent of NASA 's follow - on plans , and the STG recommended plans to develop a reusable Space Transportation System including a Space Shuttle , which would facilitate development of permanent space stations in Earth and lunar orbit , perhaps a base on the lunar surface , and the first human flight to Mars as early as 1986 or as late as 2000 . Nixon had a better sense of the declining political support in Congress for a new Apollo - style program , which had disappeared with the achievement of the landing , and he intended to pursue detente with the USSR and China , which he hoped might ease Cold War tensions . He cut the spending proposal he sent to Congress to include funding for only the Space Shuttle , with perhaps an option to pursue the Earth orbital space station for the foreseeable future . The USSR continued trying to perfect their N1 rocket , finally canceling it in 1976 , after two more launch failures in 1971 and 1972 . Salyuts and Skylab ( edit ) The Soyuz 11 crew with the Salyut station in the background , in a Soviet commemorative stamp Having lost the race to the Moon , the USSR decided to concentrate on orbital space stations . During 1969 and 1970 , they launched six more Soyuz flights after Soyuz 3 , then launched the first space station , the Salyut 1 laboratory designed by Kerim Kerimov , on April 19 , 1971 . Three days later , the Soyuz 10 crew attempted to dock with it , but failed to achieve a secure enough connection to safely enter the station . The Soyuz 11 crew of Vladislav Volkov , Georgi Dobrovolski and Viktor Patsayev successfully docked on June 7 , and completed a record 22 - day stay . The crew became the second in - flight space fatality during their reentry on June 30 . They were asphyxiated when their spacecraft 's cabin lost all pressure , shortly after undocking . The disaster was blamed on a faulty cabin pressure valve , that allowed all the air to vent into space . The crew was not wearing pressure suits and had no chance of survival once the leak occurred . Salyut 1 's orbit was increased to prevent premature reentry , but further piloted flights were delayed while the Soyuz was redesigned to fix the new safety problem . The station re-entered the Earth 's atmosphere on October 11 , after 175 days in orbit . The USSR attempted to launch a second Salyut - class station designated Durable Orbital Station - 2 ( DOS - 2 ) on July 29 , 1972 , but a rocket failure caused it to fail to achieve orbit . After the DOS - 2 failure , the USSR attempted to launch four more Salyut - class stations up to 1975 , with another failure due to an explosion of the final rocket stage , which punctured the station with shrapnel so that it would not hold pressure . All of the Salyuts were presented to the public as non-military scientific laboratories , but some of them were covers for the military Almaz reconnaissance stations . The United States launched the orbital workstation Skylab 1 on May 14 , 1973 . It weighed 169,950 pounds ( 77,090 kg ) , was 58 feet ( 18 m ) long by 21.7 feet ( 6.6 m ) in diameter , with a habitable volume of 10,000 cubic feet ( 280 m ) . Skylab was damaged during the ascent to orbit , losing one of its solar panels and a meteoroid thermal shield . Subsequent crewed missions repaired the station , and the final mission 's crew , Skylab 4 , set the Space Race endurance record with 84 days in orbit when the mission ended on February 8 , 1974 . Skylab stayed in orbit another five years before reentering the Earth 's atmosphere over the Indian Ocean and Western Australia on July 11 , 1979 . Apollo -- Soyuz test Project ( edit ) Main article : Apollo - Soyuz Test Project Apollo - Soyuz crew : From left to right : Donald `` Deke '' Slayton , Thomas Patten Stafford , Vance Brand , Alexey Leonov , and Valeri Kubasov In May 1972 , President Richard M. Nixon and Soviet Premier Leonid Brezhnev negotiated an easing of relations known as detente , creating a temporary `` thaw '' in the Cold War . In the spirit of good sportsmanship , the time seemed right for cooperation rather than competition , and the notion of a continuing `` race '' began to subside . The two nations planned a joint mission to dock the last US Apollo craft with a Soyuz , known as the Apollo - Soyuz Test Project ( ASTP ) . To prepare , the US designed a docking module for the Apollo that was compatible with the Soviet docking system , which allowed any of their craft to dock with any other ( e.g. Soyuz / Soyuz as well as Soyuz / Salyut ) . The module was also necessary as an airlock to allow the men to visit each other 's craft , which had incompatible cabin atmospheres . The USSR used the Soyuz 16 mission in December 1974 to prepare for ASTP . The joint mission began when Soyuz 19 was first launched on July 15 , 1975 , at 12 : 20 UTC , and the Apollo craft was launched with the docking module six and a half hours later . The two craft rendezvoused and docked on July 17 at 16 : 19 UTC . The three astronauts conducted joint experiments with the two cosmonauts , and the crew shook hands , exchanged gifts , and visited each other 's craft . Legacy ( edit ) Human spaceflight after Apollo ( edit ) International Space Station in 2010 In the 1970s , the United States began developing a new generation of reusable orbital spacecraft known as the Space Shuttle , and launched a range of uncrewed probes . The USSR continued to develop space station technology with the Salyut program and Mir ( ' Peace ' or ' World ' , depending on the context ) space station , supported by Soyuz spacecraft . They developed their own large space shuttle under the Buran program . The USSR dissolved in 1991 and the remains of its space program mainly passed to Russia . The United States and Russia worked together in space with the Shuttle -- Mir Program , and again with the International Space Station . The Russian R - 7 rocket family , which launched the first Sputnik at the beginning of the Space Race , is still in use today . It services the International Space Station ( ISS ) as the launcher for both the Soyuz and Progress spacecraft . It also ferries both Russian and American crews to and from the station .

When reacting with these free amines , a deep blue or purple color known as Ruhemann 's purple is produced . Ninhydrin is most commonly used to detect fingerprints , as the terminal amines of lysine residues in peptides and proteins sloughed off in fingerprints react with ninhydrin . It is a white solid which is soluble in ethanol and acetone at room temperature . Ninhydrin can be considered as the hydrate of indane - 1 , 2 , 3 - trione . Contents ( hide ) 1 History 2 Uses 3 Reactivity 4 See also 5 References History ( edit ) Ninhydrin was discovered in 1910 by the German - English chemist Siegfried Ruhemann ( 1859 -- 1943 ) . In the same year , Ruhemann observed ninhydrin 's reaction with amino acids . In 1954 , Swedish investigators Oden and von Hofsten proposed that ninhydrin could be used to develop latent fingerprints . Uses ( edit ) Ninhydrin can also be used to monitor deprotection in solid phase peptide synthesis ( Kaiser Test ) . The chain is linked via its C - terminus to the solid support , with the N - terminus extending off it . When that nitrogen is deprotected , a ninhydrin test yields blue . Amino - acid residues are attached with their N - terminus protected , so if the next residue has been successfully coupled onto the chain , the test gives a colorless or yellow result . Ninhydrin is also used in amino acid analysis of proteins . Most of the amino acids , except proline , are hydrolyzed and react with ninhydrin . Also , certain amino acid chains are degraded . Therefore , separate analysis is required for identifying such amino acids that either react differently or do not react at all with ninhydrin . The rest of the amino acids are then quantified colorimetrically after separation by chromatography . A solution suspected of containing the ammonium ion can be tested by ninhydrin by dotting it onto a solid support ( such as silica gel ) ; treatment with ninhydrin should result in a dramatic purple color if the solution contains this species . In the analysis of a chemical reaction by thin layer chromatography ( TLC ) , the reagent can also be used ( usually 0.2 % solution in either n - butanol or in ethanol ) . It will detect , on the TLC plate , virtually all amines , carbamates and also , after vigorous heating , amides . When ninhydrin reacts with amino acids , the reaction also releases CO . The carbon in this CO originates from the carboxyl carbon of the amino acid . This reaction has been used to release the carboxyl carbons of bone collagen from ancient bones for stable isotope analysis in order to help reconstruct the palaeodiet of cave bears . Release of the carboxyl carbon ( via ninhydrin ) from amino acids recovered from soil that has been treated with a labeled substrate demonstrates assimilation of that substrate into microbial protein . This approach was successfully used to reveal that some ammonium oxidizing bacteria , also called nitrifying bacteria use urea as a carbon source in soil . A stain obtained after a thumbprint is treated with ninhydrin . A ninhydrin solution is commonly used by forensic investigators in the analysis of latent fingerprints on porous surfaces such as paper . Amino acid containing fingermarks , formed by minute sweat secretions which gather on the finger 's unique ridges , are treated with the ninhydrin solution which turns the amino acid finger ridge patterns purple and therefore visible .

So the central carbon of a 1 , 2 , 3 - tricarbonyl compound is much more electrophilic than one in a simple ketone . Thus indane - 1 , 2 , 3 - trione reacts readily with nucleophiles , including water . Whereas for most carbonyl compounds , a carbonyl form is more stable than a product of water addition ( hydrate ) , ninhydrin forms a stable hydrate of the central carbon because of the destabilizing effect of the adjacent carbonyl groups . Note that to generate the ninhydrin chromophore ( 2 - ( 1 , 3 - dioxoindan - 2 - yl ) iminoindane - 1 , 3 - dione ) , the amine is condensed with a molecule of ninhydrin to give a Schiff base . Thus only ammonia and primary amines can proceed past this step . At this step , there must be an alpha hydrogen present to form the Schiff base . Therefore , amines bound to tertiary carbons do not react further and thus are not detected . The reaction of ninhydrin with secondary amines gives an iminium salt , which is also coloured , and this is generally yellow -- orange in color .

what is the rule for divisibility by 12
Divisibility rule - wikipedia Divisibility rule Jump to : navigation , search A divisibility rule is a shorthand way of determining whether a given integer is divisible by a fixed divisor without performing the division , usually by examining its digits . Although there are divisibility tests for numbers in any radix , or base , and they are all different , this article presents rules and examples only for decimal , or base 10 , numbers . Martin Gardner explained and popularized these rules in his September 1962 `` Mathematical Games '' column in Scientific American . Contents ( hide ) 1 Divisibility rules for numbers 1 -- 30 2 Step - by - step examples 2.1 Divisibility by 2 2.2 Divisibility by 3 or 9 2.3 Divisibility by 4 2.4 Divisibility by 5 2.5 Divisibility by 6 2.6 Divisibility by 7 2.7 Divisibility by 13 3 Beyond 30 3.1 Composite divisors 3.2 Prime divisors 3.3 Notable examples 4 Generalized divisibility rule 5 Proofs 5.1 Proof using basic algebra 5.2 Proof using modular arithmetic 6 See also 7 References 8 Sources 9 External links Divisibility rules for numbers 1 -- 30 ( edit ) The rules given below transform a given number into a generally smaller number , while preserving divisibility by the divisor of interest . Therefore , unless otherwise noted , the resulting number should be evaluated for divisibility by the same divisor . In some cases the process can be iterated until the divisibility is obvious ; for others ( such as examining the last n digits ) the result must be examined by other means . For divisors with multiple rules , the rules are generally ordered first for those appropriate for numbers with many digits , then those useful for numbers with fewer digits . Note : To test divisibility by any number that can be expressed as 2 or 5 , in which n is a positive integer , just examine the last n digits . Note : To test divisibility by any number expressed as the product of prime factors p 1 n p 2 m p 3 q ( \ displaystyle p_ ( 1 ) ^ ( n ) p_ ( 2 ) ^ ( m ) p_ ( 3 ) ^ ( q ) ) , we can separately test for divisibility by each prime to its appropriate power . For example , testing divisibility by 24 ( 24 = 8 * 3 = 2 * 3 ) is equivalent to testing divisibility by 8 ( 2 ) and 3 simultaneously , thus we need only show divisibility by 8 and by 3 to prove divisibility by 24 . Divisor Divisibility condition Examples No special condition . Any integer is divisible by 1 . 2 is divisible by 1 . The last digit is even ( 0 , 2 , 4 , 6 , or 8 ) . 1294 : 4 is even . Sum the digits . The result must be divisible by 3 . 405 → 4 + 0 + 5 = 9 and 636 → 6 + 3 + 6 = 15 which both are clearly divisible by 3 . 16,499,205,854,376 → 1 + 6 + 4 + 9 + 9 + 2 + 0 + 5 + 8 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 7 + 6 sums to 69 → 6 + 9 = 15 → 1 + 5 = 6 , which is clearly divisible by 3 . Subtract the quantity of the digits 2 , 5 , and 8 in the number from the quantity of the digits 1 , 4 , and 7 in the number . The result must be divisible by 3 . Using the example above : 16,499,205,854,376 has four of the digits 1 , 4 and 7 and four of the digits 2 , 5 and 8 ; ∴ Since 4 − 4 = 0 is a multiple of 3 , the number 16,499,205,854,376 is divisible by 3 . The last two digits form a number that is divisible by 4 . 40,832 : 32 is divisible by 4 . If the tens digit is even , the ones digit must be 0 , 4 , or 8 . If the tens digit is odd , the ones digit must be 2 or 6 . 40,832 : 3 is odd , and the last digit is 2 . Twice the tens digit , plus the ones digit is divisible by 4 . 40832 : 2 × 3 + 2 = 8 , which is divisible by 4 . 5 The last digit is 0 or 5 . 495 : the last digit is 5 . 6 It is divisible by 2 and by 3 . 1458 : 1 + 4 + 5 + 8 = 18 , so it is divisible by 3 and the last digit is even , hence the number is divisible by 6 . 7 Forming an alternating sum of blocks of three from right to left gives a multiple of 7 1,369,851 : 851 − 369 + 1 = 483 = 7 × 69 Subtracting 2 times the last digit from the rest gives a multiple of 7 . ( Works because 21 is divisible by 7 . ) 483 : 48 − ( 3 × 2 ) = 42 = 7 × 6 . Adding 5 times the last digit to the rest gives a multiple of 7 . ( Works because 49 is divisible by 7 . ) 483 : 48 + ( 3 × 5 ) = 63 = 7 × 9 . Adding 3 times the first digit to the next gives a multiple of 7 ( This works because 10a + b − 7a = 3a + b − last number has the same remainder ) 483 : 4 × 3 + 8 = ' 20 ' remainder 6 , 203 : 2 × 3 + 0 = ' 6 ' 63 : 6 × 3 + 3 = 21 .

Step - by - step examples ( edit ) Divisibility by 2 ( edit ) First , take any number ( for this example it will be 376 ) and note the last digit in the number , discarding the other digits . Then take that digit ( 6 ) while ignoring the rest of the number and determine if it is divisible by 2 . If it is divisible by 2 , then the original number is divisible by 2 . Example 376 ( The original number ) 37 6 ( Take the last digit ) 6 ÷ 2 = 3 ( Check to see if the last digit is divisible by 2 ) 376 ÷ 2 = 188 ( If the last digit is divisible by 2 , then the whole number is divisible by 2 ) Divisibility by 3 or 9 ( edit ) First , take any number ( for this example it will be 492 ) and add together each digit in the number ( 4 + 9 + 2 = 15 ) . Then take that sum ( 15 ) and determine if it is divisible by 3 . The original number is divisible by 3 ( or 9 ) if and only if the sum of its digits is divisible by 3 ( or 9 ) . If a number is a multiplication of 3 consecutive numbers then that number is always divisible by 3 . This is useful for when the number takes the form of ( n × ( n − 1 ) × ( n + 1 ) ) Ex . 492 ( The original number ) 4 + 9 + 2 = 15 ( Add each individual digit together ) 15 is divisible by 3 at which point we can stop . Alternatively we can continue using the same method if the number is still too large : 1 + 5 = 6 ( Add each individual digit together ) 6 ÷ 3 = 2 ( Check to see if the number received is divisible by 3 ) 492 ÷ 3 = 164 ( If the number obtained by using the rule is divisible by 3 , then the whole number is divisible by 3 ) Ex . 336 ( The original number ) 6 × 7 × 8 = 336 336 ÷ 3 = 112 Divisibility by 4 ( edit ) The basic rule for divisibility by 4 is that if the number formed by the last two digits in a number is divisible by 4 , the original number is divisible by 4 ; this is because 100 is divisible by 4 and so adding hundreds , thousands , etc. is simply adding another number that is divisible by 4 . If any number ends in a two digit number that you know is divisible by 4 ( e.g. 24 , 04 , 08 , etc . ) , then the whole number will be divisible by 4 regardless of what is before the last two digits . Alternatively , one can simply divide the number by 2 , and then check the result to find if it is divisible by 2 . If it is , the original number is divisible by 4 . In addition , the result of this test is the same as the original number divided by 4 . Ex . General rule 2092 ( The original number ) 20 92 ( Take the last two digits of the number , discarding any other digits ) 92 ÷ 4 = 23 ( Check to see if the number is divisible by 4 ) 2092 ÷ 4 = 523 ( If the number that is obtained is divisible by 4 , then the original number is divisible by 4 ) Alternative example 1720 ( The original number ) 1720 ÷ 2 = 860 ( Divide the original number by 2 ) 860 ÷ 2 = 430 ( Check to see if the result is divisible by 2 ) 1720 ÷ 4 = 430 ( If the result is divisible by 2 , then the original number is divisible by 4 ) Divisibility by 5 ( edit ) Divisibility by 5 is easily determined by checking the last digit in the number ( 475 ) , and seeing if it is either 0 or 5 . If the last number is either 0 or 5 , the entire number is divisible by 5 . If the last digit in the number is 0 , then the result will be the remaining digits multiplied by 2 . For example , the number 40 ends in a zero ( 0 ) , so take the remaining digits ( 4 ) and multiply that by two ( 4 × 2 = 8 ) . The result is the same as the result of 40 divided by 5 ( 40 / 5 = 8 ) . If the last digit in the number is 5 , then the result will be the remaining digits multiplied by two ( 2 ) , plus one ( 1 ) . For example , the number 125 ends in a 5 , so take the remaining digits ( 12 ) , multiply them by two ( 12 × 2 = 24 ) , then add one ( 24 + 1 = 25 ) . The result is the same as the result of 125 divided by 5 ( 125 / 5 = 25 ) . Ex . If the last digit is 0 110 ( The original number ) 11 0 ( Take the last digit of the number , and check if it is 0 or 5 ) 11 0 ( If it is 0 , take the remaining digits , discarding the last ) 11 × 2 = 22 ( Multiply the result by 2 ) 110 ÷ 5 = 22 ( The result is the same as the original number divided by 5 ) If the last digit is 5 85 ( The original number ) 8 5 ( Take the last digit of the number , and check if it is 0 or 5 ) 8 5 ( If it is 5 , take the remaining digits , discarding the last ) 8 × 2 = 16 ( Multiply the result by 2 ) 16 + 1 = 17 ( Add 1 to the result ) 85 ÷ 5 = 17 ( The result is the same as the original number divided by 5 ) Divisibility by 6 ( edit ) Divisibility by 6 is determined by checking the original number to see if it is both an even number ( divisible by 2 ) and divisible by 3 . This is the best test to use . If the number is divisible by six , take the original number ( 246 ) and divide it by two ( 246 ÷ 2 = 123 ) . Then , take that result and divide it by three ( 123 ÷ 3 = 41 ) . This result is the same as the original number divided by six ( 246 ÷ 6 = 41 ) . Ex . General rule 324 ( The original number ) 324 ÷ 3 = 108 ( Check to see if the original number is divisible by 3 ) 324 ÷ 2 = 162 OR 108 ÷ 2 = 54 ( Check to see if either the original number or the result of the previous equation is divisible by 2 ) 324 ÷ 6 = 54 ( If either of the tests in the last step are true , then the original number is divisible by 6 . Also , the result of the second test returns the same result as the original number divided by 6 ) Finding a remainder of a number when divided by 6 ( 1 , − 2 , − 2 , − 2 , − 2 , and − 2 goes on for the rest ) No period . -- Minimum magnitude sequence ( 1 , 4 , 4 , 4 , 4 , and 4 goes on for the rest ) -- Positive sequence Multiply the right most digit by the left most digit in the sequence and multiply the second right most digit by the second left most digit in the sequence and so on . Next , compute the sum of all the values and take the remainder on division by 6 . Example : What is the remainder when 1036125837 is divided by 6 ? Multiplication of the rightmost digit = 1 × 7 = 7 Multiplication of the second rightmost digit = 3 × − 2 = − 6 Third rightmost digit = − 16 Fourth rightmost digit = − 10 Fifth rightmost digit = − 4 Sixth rightmost digit = − 2 Seventh rightmost digit = − 12 Eighth rightmost digit = − 6 Ninth rightmost digit = 0 Tenth rightmost digit = − 2 Sum = − 51 − 51 ≡ 3 ( mod 6 ) Remainder = 3 Divisibility by 7 ( edit ) Divisibility by 7 can be tested by a recursive method . A number of the form 10x + y is divisible by 7 if and only if x − 2y is divisible by 7 . In other words , subtract twice the last digit from the number formed by the remaining digits . Continue to do this until a number known to be divisible by 7 is obtained . The original number is divisible by 7 if and only if the number obtained using this procedure is divisible by 7 . For example , the number 371 : 37 − ( 2 × 1 ) = 37 − 2 = 35 ; 3 − ( 2 × 5 ) = 3 − 10 = − 7 ; thus , since − 7 is divisible by 7 , 371 is divisible by 7 . Another method is multiplication by 3 . A number of the form 10x + y has the same remainder when divided by 7 as 3x + y . One must multiply the leftmost digit of the original number by 3 , add the next digit , take the remainder when divided by 7 , and continue from the beginning : multiply by 3 , add the next digit , etc . For example , the number 371 : 3 × 3 + 7 = 16 remainder 2 , and 2 × 3 + 1 = 7 . This method can be used to find the remainder of division by 7 . A more complicated algorithm for testing divisibility by 7 uses the fact that 10 ≡ 1 , 10 ≡ 3 , 10 ≡ 2 , 10 ≡ 6 , 10 ≡ 4 , 10 ≡ 5 , 10 ≡ 1 , ... ( mod 7 ) . Take each digit of the number ( 371 ) in reverse order ( 173 ) , multiplying them successively by the digits 1 , 3 , 2 , 6 , 4 , 5 , repeating with this sequence of multipliers as long as necessary ( 1 , 3 , 2 , 6 , 4 , 5 , 1 , 3 , 2 , 6 , 4 , 5 , ... ) , and adding the products ( 1 × 1 + 7 × 3 + 3 × 2 = 1 + 21 + 6 = 28 ) . The original number is divisible by 7 if and only if the number obtained using this procedure is divisible by 7 ( hence 371 is divisible by 7 since 28 is ) . This method can be simplified by removing the need to multiply . All it would take with this simplification is to memorize the sequence above ( 132645 ... ) , and to add and subtract , but always working with one - digit numbers . The simplification goes as follows : Take for instance the number 371 Change all occurrences of 7 , 8 or 9 into 0 , 1 and 2 , respectively . In this example , we get : 301 . This second step may be skipped , except for the left most digit , but following it may facilitate calculations later on . Now convert the first digit ( 3 ) into the following digit in the sequence 13264513 ... In our example , 3 becomes 2 . Add the result in the previous step ( 2 ) to the second digit of the number , and substitute the result for both digits , leaving all remaining digits unmodified : 2 + 0 = 2 . So 301 becomes 21 . Repeat the procedure until you have a recognizable multiple of 7 , or to make sure , a number between 0 and 6 . So , starting from 21 ( which is a recognizable multiple of 7 ) , take the first digit ( 2 ) and convert it into the following in the sequence above : 2 becomes 6 . Then add this to the second digit : 6 + 1 = 7 . If at any point the first digit is 8 or 9 , these become 1 or 2 , respectively . But if it is a 7 it should become 0 , only if no other digits follow . Otherwise , it should simply be dropped . This is because that 7 would have become 0 , and numbers with at least two digits before the decimal dot do not begin with 0 , which is useless . According to this , our 7 becomes 0 . If through this procedure you obtain a 0 or any recognizable multiple of 7 , then the original number is a multiple of 7 . If you obtain any number from 1 to 6 , that will indicate how much you should subtract from the original number to get a multiple of 7 . In other words , you will find the remainder of dividing the number by 7 . For example , take the number 186 : First , change the 8 into a 1 : 116 . Now , change 1 into the following digit in the sequence ( 3 ) , add it to the second digit , and write the result instead of both : 3 + 1 = 4 . So 116 becomes now 46 . Repeat the procedure , since the number is greater than 7 . Now , 4 becomes 5 , which must be added to 6 . That is 11 . Repeat the procedure one more time : 1 becomes 3 , which is added to the second digit ( 1 ) : 3 + 1 = 4 . Now we have a number lower than 7 , and this number ( 4 ) is the remainder of dividing 186 / 7 . So 186 minus 4 , which is 182 , must be a multiple of 7 . Note : The reason why this works is that if we have : a + b = c and b is a multiple of any given number n , then a and c will necessarily produce the same remainder when divided by n . In other words , in 2 + 7 = 9 , 7 is divisible by 7 . So 2 and 9 must have the same reminder when divided by 7 . The remainder is 2 . Therefore , if a number n is a multiple of 7 ( i.e. : the remainder of n / 7 is 0 ) , then adding ( or subtracting ) multiples of 7 can not change that property . What this procedure does , as explained above for most divisibility rules , is simply subtract little by little multiples of 7 from the original number until reaching a number that is small enough for us to remember whether it is a multiple of 7 . If 1 becomes a 3 in the following decimal position , that is just the same as converting 10 × 10 into a 3 × 10 . And that is actually the same as subtracting 7 × 10 ( clearly a multiple of 7 ) from 10 × 10 . Similarly , when you turn a 3 into a 2 in the following decimal position , you are turning 30 × 10 into 2 × 10 , which is the same as subtracting 30 × 10 − 28 × 10 , and this is again subtracting a multiple of 7 . The same reason applies for all the remaining conversions : 20 × 10 − 6 × 10 = 14 × 10 60 × 10 − 4 × 10 = 56 × 10 40 × 10 − 5 × 10 = 35 × 10 50 × 10 − 1 × 10 = 49 × 10 First method example 1050 → 105 − 0 = 105 → 10 − 10 = 0 . ANSWER : 1050 is divisible by 7 . Second method example 1050 → 0501 ( reverse ) → 0 × 1 + 5 × 3 + 0 × 2 + 1 × 6 = 0 + 15 + 0 + 6 = 21 ( multiply and add ) . ANSWER : 1050 is divisible by 7 . Vedic method of divisibility by osculation Divisibility by seven can be tested by multiplication by the Ekhādika . Convert the divisor seven to the nines family by multiplying by seven . 7 × 7 = 49 . Add one , drop the units digit and , take the 5 , the Ekhādika , as the multiplier . Start on the right . Multiply by 5 , add the product to the next digit to the left . Set down that result on a line below that digit . Repeat that method of multiplying the units digit by five and adding that product to the number of tens . Add the result to the next digit to the left . Write down that result below the digit . Continue to the end . If the end result is zero or a multiple of seven , then yes , the number is divisible by seven . Otherwise , it is not . This follows the Vedic ideal , one - line notation . Vedic method example : Is 438,722,025 divisible by seven ? Multiplier = 5 . 4 3 8 7 2 2 0 2 5 42 37 46 37 6 40 37 27 YES Pohlman -- Mass method of divisibility by 7 The Pohlman -- Mass method provides a quick solution that can determine if most integers are divisible by seven in three steps or less . This method could be useful in a mathematics competition such as MATHCOUNTS , where time is a factor to determine the solution without a calculator in the Sprint Round . Step A : If the integer is 1,000 or less , subtract twice the last digit from the number formed by the remaining digits . If the result is a multiple of seven , then so is the original number ( and vice versa ) . For example : 112 - > 11 − ( 2 × 2 ) = 11 − 4 = 7 YES 98 - > 9 − ( 8 × 2 ) = 9 − 16 = − 7 YES 634 - > 63 − ( 4 × 2 ) = 63 − 8 = 55 NO Because 1,001 is divisible by seven , an interesting pattern develops for repeating sets of 1 , 2 , or 3 digits that form 6 - digit numbers ( leading zeros are allowed ) in that all such numbers are divisible by seven . For example : 001 001 = 1,001 / 7 = 143 010 010 = 10,010 / 7 = 1,430 011 011 = 11,011 / 7 = 1,573 100 100 = 100,100 / 7 = 14,300 101 101 = 101,101 / 7 = 14,443 110 110 = 110,110 / 7 = 15,730 01 01 01 = 10,101 / 7 = 1,443 10 10 10 = 101,010 / 7 = 14,430 111,111 / 7 = 15,873 222,222 / 7 = 31,746 999,999 / 7 = 142,857 576,576 / 7 = 82,368 For all of the above examples , subtracting the first three digits from the last three results in a multiple of seven . Notice that leading zeros are permitted to form a 6 - digit pattern . This phenomenon forms the basis for Steps B and C . Step B : If the integer is between 1,001 and one million , find a repeating pattern of 1 , 2 , or 3 digits that forms a 6 - digit number that is close to the integer ( leading zeros are allowed and can help you visualize the pattern ) . If the positive difference is less than 1,000 , apply Step A . This can be done by subtracting the first three digits from the last three digits . For example : 341,355 − 341,341 = 14 - > 1 − ( 4 × 2 ) = 1 − 8 = − 7 YES 67,326 − 067,067 = 259 - > 25 − ( 9 × 2 ) = 25 − 18 = 7 YES The fact that 999,999 is a multiple of 7 can be used for determining divisibility of integers larger than one million by reducing the integer to a 6 - digit number that can be determined using Step B . This can be done easily by adding the digits left of the first six to the last six and follow with Step A . Step C : If the integer is larger than one million , subtract the nearest multiple of 999,999 and then apply Step B. For even larger numbers , use larger sets such as 12 - digits ( 999,999,999,999 ) and so on . Then , break the integer into a smaller number that can be solved using Step B. For example : 22,862,420 − ( 999,999 × 22 ) = 22,862,420 − 21,999,978 - > 862,420 + 22 = 862,442 862,442 - > 862 − 442 ( Step B) = 420 - > 42 − ( 0 × 2 ) ( Step A ) = 42 YES This allows adding and subtracting alternating sets of three digits to determine divisibility by seven . Understanding these patterns allows you to quickly calculate divisibility of seven as seen in the following examples : Pohlman -- Mass method of divisibility by 7 , examples : Is 98 divisible by seven ? 98 - > 9 − ( 8 × 2 ) = 9 − 16 = − 7 YES ( Step A ) Is 634 divisible by seven ? 634 - > 63 − ( 4 × 2 ) = 63 − 8 = 55 NO ( Step A ) Is 355,341 divisible by seven ? 355,341 − 341,341 = 14,000 ( Step B) - > 014 − 000 ( Step B) - > 14 = 1 − ( 4 × 2 ) ( Step A ) = 1 − 8 = − 7 YES Is 42,341,530 divisible by seven ? 42,341,530 - > 341,530 + 42 = 341,572 ( Step C ) 341,572 − 341,341 = 231 ( Step B) 231 - > 23 − ( 1 × 2 ) = 23 − 2 = 21 YES ( Step A ) Using quick alternating additions and subtractions : 42,341,530 - > 530 − 341 = 189 + 42 = 231 - > 23 − ( 1 × 2 ) = 21 YES Multiplication by 3 method of divisibility by 7 , examples : Is 98 divisible by seven ? 98 - > 9 remainder 2 - > 2 × 3 + 8 = 14 YES Is 634 divisible by seven ? 634 - > 6 × 3 + 3 = 21 - > remainder 0 - > 0 × 3 + 4 = 4 NO Is 355,341 divisible by seven ? 3 * 3 + 5 = 14 - > remainder 0 - > 0 × 3 + 5 = 5 - > 5 × 3 + 3 = 18 - > remainder 4 - > 4 × 3 + 4 = 16 - > remainder 2 - > 2 × 3 + 1 = 7 YES Find remainder of 1036125837 divided by 7 1 × 3 + 0 = 3 3 × 3 + 3 = 12 remainder 5 5 × 3 + 6 = 21 remainder 0 0 × 3 + 1 = 1 1 × 3 + 2 = 5 5 × 3 + 5 = 20 remainder 6 6 × 3 + 8 = 26 remainder 5 5 × 3 + 3 = 18 remainder 4 4 × 3 + 7 = 19 remainder 5 Answer is 5 Finding remainder of a number when divided by 7 7 − ( 1 , 3 , 2 , − 1 , − 3 , − 2 , cycle repeats for the next six digits ) Period : 6 digits . Recurring numbers : 1 , 3 , 2 , − 1 , − 3 , − 2 Minimum magnitude sequence ( 1 , 3 , 2 , 6 , 4 , 5 , cycle repeats for the next six digits ) Period : 6 digits . Recurring numbers : 1 , 3 , 2 , 6 , 4 , 5 Positive sequence Multiply the right most digit by the left most digit in the sequence and multiply the second right most digit by the second left most digit in the sequence and so on and so for . Next , compute the sum of all the values and take the modulus of 7 . Example : What is the remainder when 1036125837 is divided by 7 ? Multiplication of the rightmost digit = 1 × 7 = 7 Multiplication of the second rightmost digit = 3 × 3 = 9 Third rightmost digit = 8 × 2 = 16 Fourth rightmost digit = 5 × − 1 = − 5 Fifth rightmost digit = 2 × − 3 = − 6 Sixth rightmost digit = 1 × − 2 = − 2 Seventh rightmost digit = 6 × 1 = 6 Eighth rightmost digit = 3 × 3 = 9 Ninth rightmost digit = 0 Tenth rightmost digit = 1 × − 1 = − 1 Sum = 33 33 modulus 7 = 5 Remainder = 5 Digit pair method of divisibility by 7 This method uses 1 , − 3 , 2 pattern on the digit pairs . That is , the divisibility of any number by seven can be tested by first separating the number into digit pairs , and then applying the algorithm on three digit pairs ( six digits ) . When the number is smaller than six digits , then fill zero 's to the right side until there are six digits . When the number is larger than six digits , then repeat the cycle on the next six digit group and then add the results . Repeat the algorithm until the result is a small number . The original number is divisible by seven if and only if the number obtained using this algorithm is divisible by seven . This method is especially suitable for large numbers . Example 1 : The number to be tested is 157514 . First we separate the number into three digit pairs : 15 , 75 and 14 . Then we apply the algorithm : 1 × 15 − 3 × 75 + 2 × 14 = 182 Because the resulting 182 is less than six digits , we add zero 's to the right side until it is six digits . Then we apply our algorithm again : 1 × 18 − 3 × 20 + 2 × 0 = − 42 The result − 42 is divisible by seven , thus the original number 157514 is divisible by seven . Example 2 : The number to be tested is 15751537186 . ( 1 × 15 − 3 × 75 + 2 × 15 ) + ( 1 × 37 − 3 × 18 + 2 × 60 ) = − 180 + 103 = − 77 The result − 77 is divisible by seven , thus the original number 15751537186 is divisible by seven . Divisibility by 13 ( edit ) Remainder Test 13 ( 1 , − 3 , − 4 , − 1 , 3 , 4 , cycle goes on . ) If you are not comfortable with negative numbers , then use this sequence . ( 1 , 10 , 9 , 12 , 3 , 4 ) Multiply the right most digit of the number with the left most number in the sequence shown above and the second right most digit to the second left most digit of the number in the sequence . The cycle goes on . Example : What is the remainder when 321 is divided by 13 ? Using the first sequence , Ans : 1 × 1 + 2 × − 3 + 3 × − 4 = − 17 Remainder = − 17 mod 13 = 9 Example : What is the remainder when 1234567 is divided by 13 ? Using the second sequence , Answer : 7 × 1 + 6 × 10 + 5 × 9 + 4 × 12 + 3 × 3 + 2 × 4 + 1 × 1 = 178 mod 13 = 9 Remainder = 9 Beyond 30 ( edit ) Divisibility properties can be determined in two ways , depending on the type of the divisor . Composite divisors ( edit ) A number is divisible by a given divisor if it is divisible by the highest power of each of its prime factors . For example , to determine divisibility by 36 , check divisibility by 4 and by 9 . Note that checking 3 and 12 , or 2 and 18 , would not be sufficient . A table of prime factors may be useful . A composite divisor may also have a rule formed using the same procedure as for a prime divisor , given below , with the caveat that the manipulations involved may not introduce any factor which is present in the divisor . For instance , one can not make a rule for 14 that involves multiplying the equation by 7 . This is not an issue for prime divisors because they have no smaller factors . Prime divisors ( edit ) The goal is to find an inverse to 10 modulo the prime under consideration ( does not work for 2 or 5 ) and use that as a multiplier to make the divisibility of the original number by that prime depend on the divisibility of the new ( usually smaller ) number by the same prime . Using 31 as an example , since 10 × ( − 3 ) = − 30 = 1 mod 31 , we get the rule for using y − 3x in the table above . Likewise , since 10 × ( 28 ) = 280 = 1 mod 31 also , we obtain a complementary rule y + 28x of the same kind - our choice of addition or subtraction being dictated by arithmetic convenience of the smaller value . In fact , this rule for prime divisors besides 2 and 5 is really a rule for divisibility by any integer relatively prime to 10 ( including 33 and 39 ; see the table below ) . This is why the last divisibility condition in the tables above and below for any number relatively prime to 10 has the same kind of form ( add or subtract some multiple of the last digit from the rest of the number ) .

Find any multiple of D ending in 9 . ( If D ends respectively in 1 , 3 , 7 , or 9 , then multiply by 9 , 3 , 7 , or 1 . ) Then add 1 and divide by 10 , denoting the result as m . Then a number N = 10t + q is divisible by D if and only if mq + t is divisible by D . For example , to determine if 913 = 10 × 91 + 3 is divisible by 11 , find that m = ( 11 × 9 + 1 ) ÷ 10 = 10 . Then mq + t = 10 × 3 + 91 = 121 ; this is divisible by 11 ( with quotient 11 ) , so 913 is also divisible by 11 . As another example , to determine if 689 = 10 × 68 + 9 is divisible by 53 , find that m = ( 53 × 3 + 1 ) ÷ 10 = 16 . Then mq + t = 16 × 9 + 68 = 212 , which is divisible by 53 ( with quotient 4 ) ; so 689 is also divisible by 53 . Proofs ( edit ) Proof using basic algebra ( edit ) Many of the simpler rules can be produced using only algebraic manipulation , creating binomials and rearranging them . By writing a number as the sum of each digit times a power of 10 each digit 's power can be manipulated individually . Case where all digits are summed This method works for divisors that are factors of 10 − 1 = 9 . Using 3 as an example , 3 divides 9 = 10 − 1 . That means 10 ≡ 1 ( mod 3 ) ( \ displaystyle 10 \ equiv 1 ( \ pmod ( 3 ) ) ) ( see modular arithmetic ) . The same for all the higher powers of 10 : 10 n ≡ 1 n ≡ 1 ( mod 3 ) ( \ displaystyle 10 ^ ( n ) \ equiv 1 ^ ( n ) \ equiv 1 ( \ pmod ( 3 ) ) ) They are all congruent to 1 modulo 3 . Since two things that are congruent modulo 3 are either both divisible by 3 or both not , we can interchange values that are congruent modulo 3 . So , in a number such as the following , we can replace all the powers of 10 by 1 : 100 ⋅ a + 10 ⋅ b + 1 ⋅ c ≡ ( 1 ) a + ( 1 ) b + ( 1 ) c ( mod 3 ) ( \ displaystyle 100 \ cdot a + 10 \ cdot b + 1 \ cdot c \ equiv ( 1 ) a+ ( 1 ) b+ ( 1 ) c ( \ pmod ( 3 ) ) ) which is exactly the sum of the digits . Case where the alternating sum of digits is used This method works for divisors that are factors of 10 + 1 = 11 . Using 11 as an example , 11 divides 11 = 10 + 1 . That means 10 ≡ − 1 ( mod 11 ) ( \ displaystyle 10 \ equiv - 1 ( \ pmod ( 11 ) ) ) . For the higher powers of 10 , they are congruent to 1 for even powers and congruent to − 1 for odd powers : 10 n ≡ ( − 1 ) n ≡ ( 1 , if n is even − 1 , if n is odd ( mod 11 ) . ( \ displaystyle 10 ^ ( n ) \ equiv ( - 1 ) ^ ( n ) \ equiv ( \ begin ( cases ) 1 , & ( \ mbox ( if ) ) n ( \ mbox ( is even ) ) \ \ - 1 , & ( \ mbox ( if ) ) n ( \ mbox ( is odd ) ) \ end ( cases ) ) ( \ pmod ( 11 ) ) . ) Like the previous case , we can substitute powers of 10 with congruent values : 1000 ⋅ a + 100 ⋅ b + 10 ⋅ c + 1 ⋅ d ≡ ( − 1 ) a + ( 1 ) b + ( − 1 ) c + ( 1 ) d ( mod 11 ) ( \ displaystyle 1000 \ cdot a + 100 \ cdot b + 10 \ cdot c + 1 \ cdot d \ equiv ( - 1 ) a+ ( 1 ) b+ ( - 1 ) c+ ( 1 ) d ( \ pmod ( 11 ) ) ) which is also the difference between the sum of digits at odd positions and the sum of digits at even positions . Case where only the last digit ( s ) matter This applies to divisors that are a factor of a power of 10 . This is because sufficiently high powers of the base are multiples of the divisor , and can be eliminated . For example , in base 10 , the factors of 10 include 2 , 5 , and 10 . Therefore , divisibility by 2 , 5 , and 10 only depend on whether the last 1 digit is divisible by those divisors . The factors of 10 include 4 and 25 , and divisibility by those only depend on the last 2 digits . Case where only the last digit ( s ) are removed Most numbers do not divide 9 or 10 evenly , but do divide a higher power of 10 or 10 − 1 . In this case the number is still written in powers of 10 , but not fully expanded . For example , 7 does not divide 9 or 10 , but does divide 98 , which is close to 100 . Thus , proceed from 100 ⋅ a + b ( \ displaystyle 100 \ cdot a + b ) where in this case a is any integer , and b can range from 0 to 99 . Next , ( 98 + 2 ) ⋅ a + b ( \ displaystyle ( 98 + 2 ) \ cdot a + b ) and again expanding 98 ⋅ a + 2 ⋅ a + b , ( \ displaystyle 98 \ cdot a + 2 \ cdot a + b , ) and after eliminating the known multiple of 7 , the result is 2 ⋅ a + b , ( \ displaystyle 2 \ cdot a + b , ) which is the rule `` double the number formed by all but the last two digits , then add the last two digits '' . Case where the last digit ( s ) is multiplied by a factor The representation of the number may also be multiplied by any number relatively prime to the divisor without changing its divisibility . After observing that 7 divides 21 , we can perform the following : 10 ⋅ a + b , ( \ displaystyle 10 \ cdot a + b , ) after multiplying by 2 , this becomes 20 ⋅ a + 2 ⋅ b , ( \ displaystyle 20 \ cdot a + 2 \ cdot b , ) and then ( 21 − 1 ) ⋅ a + 2 ⋅ b . ( \ displaystyle ( 21 - 1 ) \ cdot a + 2 \ cdot b . ) Eliminating the 21 gives − 1 ⋅ a + 2 ⋅ b , ( \ displaystyle - 1 \ cdot a + 2 \ cdot b , ) and multiplying by − 1 gives a − 2 ⋅ b . ( \ displaystyle a-2 \ cdot b . ) Either of the last two rules may be used , depending on which is easier to perform . They correspond to the rule `` subtract twice the last digit from the rest '' . Proof using modular arithmetic ( edit ) This section will illustrate the basic method ; all the rules can be derived following the same procedure . The following requires a basic grounding in modular arithmetic ; for divisibility other than by 2 's and 5 's the proofs rest on the basic fact that 10 mod m is invertible if 10 and m are relatively prime . For 2 or 5 : Only the last n digits need to be checked . 10 n = 2 n ⋅ 5 n ≡ 0 ( mod 2 n o r 5 n ) ( \ displaystyle 10 ^ ( n ) = 2 ^ ( n ) \ cdot 5 ^ ( n ) \ equiv 0 ( \ pmod ( 2 ^ ( n ) \ mathrm ( \ or \ ) 5 ^ ( n ) ) ) ) Representing x as 10 n ⋅ y + z , ( \ displaystyle 10 ^ ( n ) \ cdot y + z , ) x = 10 n ⋅ y + z ≡ z ( mod 2 n o r 5 n ) ( \ displaystyle x = 10 ^ ( n ) \ cdot y + z \ equiv z ( \ pmod ( 2 ^ ( n ) \ mathrm ( \ or \ ) 5 ^ ( n ) ) ) ) and the divisibility of x is the same as that of z . For 7 : Since 10 × 5 ≡ 10 × ( − 2 ) ≡ 1 ( mod 7 ) we can do the following : Representing x as 10 ⋅ y + z , ( \ displaystyle 10 \ cdot y + z , ) − 2 x ≡ y − 2 z ( mod 7 ) , ( \ displaystyle - 2x \ equiv y - 2z ( \ pmod ( 7 ) ) , ) so x is divisible by 7 if and only if y − 2z is divisible by 7 .

what was the number one song on november 17 1992
List of Billboard Hot 100 number - one Singles of 1992 - wikipedia List of Billboard Hot 100 number - one Singles of 1992 Boyz II Men ( pictured ) earned their first Hot 100 number - one single with `` End of the Road '' , which stayed at the top position for thirteen straight weeks . This is a list of the U.S. Billboard magazine Hot 100 number - ones of 1992 . The longest running number - one single of 1992 is `` I Will Always Love You '' by Whitney Houston , which stayed at the top of the chart for 14 weeks . `` I Will Always Love You '' became the longest running song at number one when it reached 14 weeks , breaking the record that Boyz II Men 's `` End of the Road '' had just set at 13 weeks . `` End of the Road '' broke the record previously set at 11 weeks by Elvis Presley in 1956 with `` Hound Dog '' / `` Do n't Be Cruel '' . `` I Will Always Love You '' would hold the record as the longest - running song on the Hot 100 until `` One Sweet Day '' by Mariah Carey and Boyz II Men topped the chart for 16 weeks in 1995 . Although `` I Will Always Love You '' spent nine of its weeks atop the Hot 100 in 1993 , it is considered the longest - running song of 1992 because that is when its run began .

Sung by Jagger , the song refers to the Devil , written in the first - person narrative , recounting atrocities committed throughout the history of humanity as if they were somehow `` inspired '' ( or at least witnessed ) by him . Although it has been deemed by some as `` a homage '' , in reality , no admiration ( or even sympathy , for that matter ) is declared for the Devil in the song - other than his `` own '' request . It is performed in a rock arrangement with a samba rhythm , first appearing as the opening track on their 1968 album Beggars Banquet . Rolling Stone magazine placed it at number 32 in its list of the `` 500 Greatest Songs of All Time '' . Contents ( hide ) 1 Inspiration 2 Recording 3 Aftermath 4 Personnel 5 Certifications 6 The 1968 film and others 7 Guns N ' Roses version 7.1 Personnel 7.2 Charts 7.3 Sales and certifications 8 Other recorded versions 9 References 10 External links Inspiration ( edit ) `` Sympathy for the Devil '' is credited to Jagger and Richards , though the song was largely a Jagger composition . The working title of the song was `` The Devil Is My Name '' , having earlier been called `` Fallen Angels '' , and it is sung by Jagger as a first - person narrative from the point of view of the Devil , recounting his control over the events of human existence . In the 2012 documentary Crossfire Hurricane , Jagger stated that his influence for the song came from Baudelaire and from the Russian author Mikhail Bulgakov 's novel The Master and Margarita ( which had just appeared in English translation in 1967 ) . The book was given to him by Marianne Faithfull . In a 1995 interview with Rolling Stone , Jagger said , `` I think that was taken from an old idea of Baudelaire 's , I think , but I could be wrong . Sometimes when I look at my Baudelaire books , I ca n't see it in there . But it was an idea I got from French writing . And I just took a couple of lines and expanded on it . I wrote it as sort of like a Bob Dylan song . '' It was Richards who suggested changing the tempo and using additional percussion , turning the folk song into a samba . Furthermore , Jagger stated in the Rolling Stone interview : `` it 's a very long historical figure -- the figures of evil and figures of good -- so it is a tremendously long trail he 's made as personified in this piece . '' By the time Beggars Banquet was released , the Rolling Stones had already raised some hackles for sexually forward lyrics such as `` Let 's Spend the Night Together '' , or after their reprise of the Willie Dixon 's blues `` I Just Want to Make Love to You '' etc. and for allegedly dabbling in Satanism ( their previous album , while containing no direct Satanic references in its music or lyrics , was titled Their Satanic Majesties Request ) , and `` Sympathy '' brought these concerns to the fore , provoking media rumours and fears among some religious groups that the Stones were devil - worshippers and a corrupting influence on youth . The lyrics focus on atrocities in the history of mankind from Satan 's point of view including the trial and death of Jesus Christ ( `` Made damn sure that Pilate washed his hands to seal his fate '' ) , European wars of religion ( `` I watched with glee while your kings and queens fought for ten decades for the gods they made '' ) , the violence of the Russian Revolution of 1917 and the 1918 shooting of the Romanov family ( `` I stuck around St. Petersburg when I saw it was a time for a change / Killed the Tsar and his ministers / Anastasia screamed in vain '' ) , and World War II ( `` I rode a tank , held a general 's rank when the blitzkrieg raged , and the bodies stank '' ) . The song was originally written with the line `` I shouted out ' Who killed Kennedy ? ' '' After Robert F. Kennedy 's death on 6 June 1968 , the line was changed to `` Who killed the Kennedys ? '' . And the answer is `` when after all it was you and me '' , which is a way of saying that `` the devil is not the other one , but eventually each one of us . '' The song may have been spared further controversy when the first single from the album , `` Street Fighting Man '' , became even more controversial in view of the race riots and student protests occurring in many cities in Europe and in the United States . Recording ( edit ) The recording of `` Sympathy for the Devil '' began at London 's Olympic Sound Studios on 4 June 1968 and continued into the next day ; overdubs were done on 8 , 9 and 10 June . Personnel included on the recording include Nicky Hopkins on piano , Rocky Dijon on congas and Bill Wyman on maracas . Marianne Faithfull , Anita Pallenberg , Brian Jones , Charlie Watts , producer Jimmy Miller , Wyman and Richards performed backup vocals , singing the `` woo woos '' . Richards plays bass on the original recording , and also electric guitar . Brian Jones plays a mostly mixed out acoustic guitar , although in isolated tracks of the studio cut , it is audible playing along with the piano . In the 2003 book According to the Rolling Stones , Watts commented : `` Sympathy '' was one of those sort of songs where we tried everything . The first time I ever heard the song was when Mick was playing it at the front door of a house I lived at in Sussex ... He played it entirely on his own ... and it was fantastic . We had a go at loads of different ways of playing it ; in the end I just played a jazz Latin feel in the style of Kenny Clarke would have played on `` A Night in Tunisia '' -- not the actual rhythm he played , but the same styling . On the overall power of the song , Jagger continued in Rolling Stone : It has a very hypnotic groove , a samba , which has a tremendous hypnotic power , rather like good dance music . It does n't speed up or slow down . It keeps this constant groove . Plus , the actual samba rhythm is a great one to sing on , but it is also got some other suggestions in it , an undercurrent of being primitive -- because it is a primitive African , South American , Afro - whatever - you - call - that rhythm ( candomblé ) . So to white people , it has a very sinister thing about it . But forgetting the cultural colors , it is a very good vehicle for producing a powerful piece . It becomes less pretentious because it is a very unpretentious groove . If it had been done as a ballad , it would n't have been as good . Aftermath ( edit ) In an interview with Creem , Jagger said , `` ( When people started taking us as devil worshippers ) , I thought it was a really odd thing , because it was only one song , after all . It was n't like it was a whole album , with lots of occult signs on the back . People seemed to embrace the image so readily , ( and ) it has carried all the way over into heavy metal bands today . Some people have made a living out of doing this ; for example , Jimmy Page . '' Of the change in public perception the band experienced after the song 's release , Richards said in a 1971 interview with Rolling Stone , `` Before , we were just innocent kids out for a good time , they 're saying , ' They 're evil , they 're evil . ' Oh , I 'm evil , really ? So that makes you start thinking about evil ... What is evil ? Half of it , I do n't know how much people think of Mick as the devil or as just a good rock performer or what ? There are black magicians who think we are acting as unknown agents of Lucifer and others who think we are Lucifer . Everybody 's Lucifer . '' Contrary to a widespread misconception , it was `` Under My Thumb '' and not `` Sympathy for the Devil '' that the Rolling Stones were performing when Meredith Hunter was killed at the Altamont Free Concert . Rolling Stone magazine 's early articles on the incident misreported that the killing took place during `` Sympathy for the Devil '' , but the Stones in fact played `` Sympathy for the Devil '' earlier in the concert ; it was interrupted by a fight and restarted , Jagger commenting , `` We 're always having -- something very funny happens when we start that number . '' Several other songs were performed before Hunter was killed .

The film , a depiction of the late 1960s American counterculture , also featured the Rolling Stones in the process of recording the song in the studio . On the filming , Jagger said in Rolling Stone : `` ( it was ) very fortuitous , because Godard wanted to do a film of us in the studio . I mean , it would never happen now , to get someone as interesting as Godard . And stuffy . We just happened to be recording that song . We could have been recording ' My Obsession . ' But it was ' Sympathy for the Devil ' , and it became the track that we used .

This cover is noteworthy for causing an incident involving incoming guitarist , Paul `` Huge '' Tobias , that was partially responsible for guitarist Slash departing from the band in 1996 . Slash has described the Guns N ' Roses version of the song as `` the sound of the band breaking up '' . Rhythm guitarist Gilby Clarke , who does not appear on the recording , noted that the recording foreshadowed his departure from the band : They did that while I was on the road touring for my solo record . ( ... ) I knew that that was the ending because nobody told me about it . Officially I was in the band at that time , and they did that song without me . That was one of the last straws for me , because nobody had said anything to me , and they recorded a song by one of my favorite bands . It was pretty clear I 'm a big Rolling Stones fan , and they recorded the song without me . So I knew that was it . Personnel ( edit ) W.

Ministers of the Crown , and especially Cabinet ministers , are selected primarily from the elected members of House of Commons , and from the House of Lords , by the Prime Minister . Cabinet ministers are heads of government departments , mostly with the office of `` Secretary of State for ( function ; e.g. , Defence ) '' . The collective co-ordinating function of the Cabinet is reinforced by the statutory position that all the Secretaries of State jointly hold the same office , and can exercise the same powers . The Cabinet is the ultimate decision - making body of the executive within the Westminster system of government in traditional constitutional theory . This interpretation was originally put across in the work of nineteenth century constitutionalists such as Walter Bagehot , who described the Cabinet as the `` efficient secret '' of the British political system in his book The English Constitution . The political and decision - making authority of the cabinet has been gradually reduced over the last several decades , with some claiming its role has been usurped by a `` prime ministerial '' government . In the modern political era , the Prime Minister releases information concerning Cabinet rank ; a list detailing the seniority of all Cabinet ministers . The Cabinet is the executive committee of Her Majesty 's Privy Council , a body which has legislative , judicial and executive functions , and whose large membership includes members of the Opposition . Its decisions are generally implemented either under the existing powers of individual government departments , or by Orders in Council . Contents ( hide ) 1 History 2 Composition 3 Meetings of the cabinet 4 Location of Cabinet meetings 5 Parliamentary accountability 6 Current cabinet 7 Shadow Cabinet 8 See also 8.1 Notes 9 References 10 External links History ( edit ) Until at least the 16th century , individual Officers of State had separate property , powers and responsibilities granted with their separate offices by Royal Command , and the Crown and the Privy Council constituted the only co-ordinating authorities . In England , phrases such as `` cabinet counsel '' , meaning advice given in private , in a cabinet in the sense of a small room , to the monarch , occur from the late 16th century , and , given the non-standardised spelling of the day , it is often hard to distinguish whether `` council '' or `` counsel '' is meant . The OED credits Francis Bacon in his Essays ( 1605 ) with the first use of `` Cabinet council '' , where it is described as a foreign habit , of which he disapproves : `` For which inconveniences , the doctrine of Italy , and practice of France , in some kings ' times , hath introduced cabinet counsels ; a remedy worse than the disease '' . Charles I began a formal `` Cabinet Council '' from his accession in 1625 , as his Privy Council , or `` private council '' , and the first recorded use of `` cabinet '' by itself for such a body comes from 1644 , and is again hostile and associates the term with dubious foreign practices . Since the reign of King George I the Cabinet has been the principal executive group of British government . Both he and George II made use of the system , as both were not native English speakers , unfamiliar with British politics , and thus relied heavily on selected groups of advisers . The term `` minister '' came into being since the royal officers `` ministered '' to the sovereign . The name and institution have been adopted by most English - speaking countries , and the Council of Ministers or similar bodies of other countries are often informally referred to as cabinets . The modern Cabinet system was set up by Prime Minister David Lloyd George during his premiership , 1916 -- 1922 , with a Cabinet Office and Secretariat , committee structures , unpublished minutes , and a clearer relationship with departmental Cabinet ministers . The formal procedures , practice and proceedings of the Cabinet remain largely unpublished . This development grew out of the exigencies of the First World War , where faster and better co-ordinated decisions across Government were seen as a crucial part of the war effort . Decisions on mass conscription , co-ordination worldwide with other governments across international theatres , and armament production tied into a general war strategy that could be developed and overseen from an inner `` War Cabinet '' . The country went through successive crises after the war : the 1926 United Kingdom general strike ; the Great Depression of 1929 -- 32 ; the rise of Bolshevism after 1917 and Fascism after 1922 ; the Spanish Civil War 1936 onwards ; the invasion of Abyssinia 1936 ; the League of Nations Crisis which followed ; and the re-armament and resurgence of Germany from 1933 , leading into another World War . All these demanded a highly organised and centralised Government centred on the Cabinet . This centralisation enhanced the power of the Prime Minister , who moved from being the primus inter pares of the Asquith Cabinets of 1906 onwards , to the dominating figures of David Lloyd George , Stanley Baldwin and Winston Churchill . Composition ( edit ) Cabinet ministers , like all ministers , are appointed and may be dismissed by the monarch without notice or reason , on the advice of the Prime Minister . The allocation and transfer of responsibilities between ministers and departments is also generally at the Prime Minister 's discretion . The Cabinet has always been led by the Prime Minister , whose originally unpaid office as such was traditionally described as merely primus inter pares ( first among equals ) , but today the Prime Minister is the preeminent head of government , with the effective power to appoint and dismiss Cabinet ministers and to control the Cabinet 's agenda . The extent to which the Government is collegial varies with political conditions and individual personalities . Any change to the composition of the Cabinet involving more than one appointment is customarily referred to as a reshuffle ; a routine reshuffle normally occurs every summer . The total number of ministers allowed to be paid as `` Cabinet ministers '' is limited by the Ministerial and Other Salaries Act 1975 , but there may be regular attendees at Cabinet who are not paid as Cabinet ministers . The number in addition to the Prime Minister is currently 21 , total cabinet composition fluctuating between 21 and 23 . The Cabinet Secretary does not have a political appointment such as Secretary of State and is not a member of the Cabinet , but is the professional Head of Her Majesty 's Civil Service . ( The Cabinet Secretaries of the devolved Scottish Government are Scottish Ministers , unrelated to the U.K. Cabinet ) . In formal constitutional terms , the Cabinet is a committee of Her Majesty 's Most Honourable Privy Council . All Cabinet members are made Privy Counsellors shortly after appointment if not already Privy Counsellors , but only selected Privy Counsellors are appointed to the Cabinet or invited to attend . MPs and peers in the Cabinet use the style `` the Right Honourable '' ( abbr . the Rt Hon . ) The Cabinet has come to be made up almost entirely of members of the House of Commons . The Leader of the House of Lords is a member of the House of Lords . Otherwise it is rare for a peer to sit in the Cabinet . The Lord Chancellor was formerly the presiding officer of the House of Lords , but since 2007 need not be a member of the Lords , and members of the House of Commons have been appointed . Until the re-appointment to the cabinet of Lord Mandelson on 3 October 2008 , the old Leader of the Lords , Lady Amos , was the last peer to sit in any other Cabinet post , as Secretary of State for International Development from May to October 2003 . Before then , the last Secretary of State for a major department drawn from the Lords was Lord Young of Graffham , serving between 1985 and 1989 as Secretary of State for Employment until 1987 and Secretary of State for Trade and Industry until 1989 . The number of junior ministers who are peers has increased since 1997 . Occasionally cabinet members are selected from outside the Houses of Parliament and if necessary granted a peerage . Harold Wilson appointed Frank Cousins and Patrick Gordon Walker to the 1964 cabinet despite their not being MPs at the time . On 3 October 2008 Peter Mandelson , at the time of appointment not a member of either House , became Secretary of State for Business , Enterprise and Regulatory Reform and was immediately made a life peer . During the First World War , the South African politician Jan Smuts served in Lloyd George 's War Cabinet without ever becoming a member of either house of the British parliament . There are some 100 junior members of the Government who are not members of the Cabinet , including Ministers of State and Parliamentary Under - Secretaries of State ; and unpaid Parliamentary Private Secretaries are in practice apprentice ministers on the payroll vote . Some of them may be Privy Counsellors , or may be appointed to the Privy Council as a mark of distinction , without becoming Cabinet ministers . Equally , some junior ministers below Cabinet level may be invited to all Cabinet meetings as a matter of course . The Attorney General for England and Wales together with the chair of the governing political party , are customarily included , and other members of the Government can be invited at the Prime Minister 's discretion , either regularly or ad hoc . Since the end of the twentieth century more non-members of Her Majesty 's Government were permitted by the Prime Minister to attend Cabinet meetings on a regular basis , notably Alastair Campbell in his capacity as Director of Communications and Strategy between 1997 and 2003 , and Jonathan Powell , the Chief of Staff to the Prime Minister , under Tony Blair , with a distinctly separate role from the Cabinet Secretary / Head of the Civil Service . A photograph is taken of each new Cabinet in the garden or drawing room at 10 Downing Street . Meetings of the Cabinet ( edit ) The Cabinet table The Cabinet meets on a regular basis , usually weekly on a Thursday morning notionally to discuss the most important issues of government policy , and to make decisions . Despite the custom of meeting on a Thursday , after the appointment of Gordon Brown as Prime Minister the meeting day was switched to Tuesday . However , when David Cameron became prime minister , he held his cabinet meetings on Thursdays again . The length of meetings varies according to the style of the Prime Minister and political conditions , but today meetings can be as short as 30 minutes , which suggests announcement or ratification of decisions taken in committee , by informal groups , or in bi-lateral discussions between the Prime Minister and individual colleagues , with discussion in Cabinet itself very limited . The Prime Minister normally has a weekly audience with the Queen thereafter . The Cabinet has numerous sub-committees which focus on particular policy areas , particularly ones which cut across several ministerial responsibilities , and therefore need coordination . These may be permanent committees or set up for a short duration to look at particular issues ( `` ad hoc committees '' ) . Junior ministers are also often members of these committees , in addition to Secretaries of State . The transaction of government business through meetings of the Cabinet and its many committees is administered by a small secretariat within the Cabinet Office . Consequent Orders in Council are normally made by the Queen - in - Council with a quorum of the Privy Council , which meets monthly or ad hoc . The Institute for Government claims that the reduced number of full Cabinet meetings signify `` that the role of Cabinet as a formal decision - making body has been in decline since the war . '' . This view has been contradicted by Vernon Bogdanor , a British constitutional expert , who claims that `` the Cabinet has , in fact , been strengthened by the decline in full meetings , as it allows more matters to be transferred to cabinet committees . Thus , business is done more efficiently . '' Most Prime Ministers have had a so - called `` kitchen cabinet '' consisting of their own trusted advisers who may be Cabinet members but are often non-cabinet trusted personal advisers on their own staff . In recent governments , generally from Margaret Thatcher , and especially in that of Tony Blair , it has been reported that many or even all major decisions have been made before cabinet meetings . This suggestion has been made by former ministers including Clare Short and Chris Smith , in the media , and was made clear in the Butler Review , where Blair 's style of `` sofa government '' was censured . Location of Cabinet meetings ( edit ) Cabinet meetings are usually held in the Cabinet Room of 10 Downing Street , the Prime Minister 's official residence . Cabinet meetings have also been held at Chequers , and in one case at the Grand Hotel , Brighton . In September 1921 , under David Lloyd George , a Cabinet meeting was held at Inverness Town House in the Scottish Highlands to discuss the Irish Problem , the only meeting outside England . Parliamentary accountability ( edit ) There are two key constitutional conventions regarding the accountability of cabinet ministers to the Parliament of the United Kingdom , cabinet collective responsibility , and individual ministerial responsibility . These are derived from the fact the members of the cabinet are Members of Parliament , and therefore accountable to the House of which they are a member . The Queen will only appoint a Prime Minister whose Government can command the support of the House of Commons , which alone can grant supply to a Government by authorising taxes ; and the House of Commons expects all ministers to be personally accountable to Parliament . In practice , Cabinet ministers will usually have a junior minister to represent their department in the House of Lords . Cabinet collective responsibility means that members of the cabinet make major decisions collectively , and are therefore collectively responsible for the consequences of these decisions . Therefore , no minister may speak against government decisions , and if a vote of no confidence is passed in Parliament , every minister and government official drawn from Parliament is expected to resign from the executive . Cabinet ministers who disagree with major decisions are expected to resign , Robin Cook being a recent example over the decision to go to war with Iraq in 2003 . The principle of collective responsibility is not impaired by the fact that decisions may be made in a cabinet committee rather than by the full cabinet . Individual ministerial responsibility is the convention that in their capacity as head of department , a minister is personally responsible for the actions and failings of their department . Under circumstances of gross failure in their department , a minister is expected to resign ( and may be forced to do so by the Prime Minister ) , while their civil servants remain permanent and anonymous . This is relatively rare in practice , perhaps because administrative failure is of less interest to the media than personal scandal , and less susceptible to unequivocal proof . The closest example in recent years is perhaps Estelle Morris , who resigned as Secretary of State for Education and Skills in 2002 following severe problems and inaccuracies in the marking of A-level exams . The circumstances under which this convention is followed are not possible to define strictly , and depend on many other factors . If a minister 's reputation is seen to be tarnished by a personal scandal ( for example when it was luridly revealed that David Mellor had an extramarital affair ) they very often resign . This often follows a short period of intense media and opposition pressure for them to do so . In general , despite numerous scandals , in Britain known cases of serious corruption ( e.g. acceptance of bribes ) are relatively rare in comparison with many other democracies . One reason is the strength of the whip system , political parties and the civil service , in comparison to individual politicians . This means MPs and ministers have little capacity to be influenced by improper pressure . Parliamentary Questions can be tabled for ministers in either house of Parliament for either written or oral reply . These may be `` planted '' questions for the advantage of the Government , or antagonistic questions from the Opposition , or may genuinely seek information . Cabinet ministers must respond , either themselves or through a deputy , although the answers do not always fully answer the question . Written answers , which are usually more specific and detailed than oral questions are usually written by a civil servant . Answers to written and oral questions are published in Hansard . Parliament can not dismiss individual ministers ( though members or a House may call for their resignation , or formally resolve to reduce their salary by a nominal amount ) , but the House of Commons is able to determine the fate of the entire Government . If a vote of no confidence in the Government passes , then the Queen will seek to restore confidence either by a dissolution of Parliament and the election of a new one , or by the acceptance of the resignation of her entire government . In the United Kingdom 's parliamentary system , the executive is not separate from the legislature , since Cabinet members are drawn from Parliament . Moreover , the executive tends to dominate the legislature for several reasons : the first - past - the - post voting system ( which tends to give a large majority to the governing party ) the power of the Government Whips ( whose role is to ensure party members vote in accordance with the party line ) the `` payroll vote '' ( a term which refers to the fact that members of parliament of the majority party will wish to be promoted to an executive position , and then be on the government 's payroll ) . collective ministerial responsibility requires members of the government to vote with the government on whipped votes , or else resign their position . The combined effect of the Prime Minister 's ability to control Cabinet by circumventing effective discussion in Cabinet and the executive 's ability to dominate parliamentary proceedings places the British Prime Minister in a position of great power , that has been likened to an elective dictatorship ( a phrase coined by Lord Hailsham in 1976 ) . The relative inability of Parliament to hold the Government of the day to account is often cited by the UK media as a justification for the vigour with which they question and challenge the Government . This is often controversial as some people believe that Individual Media Corporations have had key influence upon certain components of British elections . The classic view of Cabinet Government was laid out by Walter Bagehot in The English Constitution ( 1867 ) in which he described the prime minister as the primus ‐ inter ‐ pares ( `` first among equals '' ) . The view was questioned by Richard Crossman in The Myths of Cabinet Government ( 1972 ) and by Tony Benn . They were both members of the Labour governments of the 1960s and thought that the position of the Prime Minister had acquired more power so that Prime Ministerial Government was a more apt description . Crossman stated that the increase the power of the prime minister resulted from power of centralised political parties , the development of a unified civil service , and the grown of the Prime Minister 's private office and Cabinet secretariat . Graham Allen ( a Government Whip during Tony Blair 's first government ) makes the case in The Last Prime Minister : Being Honest About the UK Presidency ( 2003 ) that in fact the office of prime minister has presidential powers , as did Michael Foley in The British Presidency ( 2000 ) . However the power that a prime minister has over his or her cabinet colleagues is directly proportional to the amount of support that they have with their political parties and this is often related to whether the party considers them to be an electoral asset or liability . Also when a party is divided into factions a Prime Minister may be forced to include other powerful party members in the Cabinet for party political cohesion . The Prime Minister 's personal power is also curtailed if their party is in a power - sharing arrangement , or a formal coalition with another party ( as happened in the coalition government of 2010 to 2015 ) .

Prime meridian ( Greenwich ) - wikipedia Prime meridian ( Greenwich ) Jump to : navigation , search This article is about a historical prime meridian . For the general concept and information on modern prime meridians , see prime meridian . Coordinates : 51 ° 28 ′ 40.12 '' N 0 ° 00 ′ 05.31 '' W  /  51.4778111 ° N 0.0014750 ° W  / 51.4778111 ; - 0.0014750 Tourists taking pictures with the Prime Meridian monument Laser projected from the Royal Observatory in Greenwich marking the Prime meridian . A prime meridian , based at the Royal Observatory , Greenwich , in London , was established by Sir George Airy in 1851 . By 1884 , over two - thirds of all ships and tonnage used it as the reference meridian on their charts and maps . In October of that year , at the behest of US President Chester A. Arthur , 41 delegates from 25 nations met in Washington , D.C. , United States , for the International Meridian Conference . This conference selected the meridian passing through Greenwich as the official prime meridian due to its popularity . However , France abstained from the vote , and French maps continued to use the Paris meridian for several decades . In the 18th century , London lexicographer Malachy Postlethwayt published his African maps showing the `` Meridian of London '' intersecting the Equator a few degrees west of the later meridian and Accra , Ghana . The plane of the prime meridian is parallel to the local gravity vector at the Airy transit circle ( 51 ° 28 ′ 40.1 '' N 0 ° 0 ′ 5.3 '' W  /  51.477806 ° N 0.001472 ° W  / 51.477806 ; - 0.001472  ( Airy Transit ) ) of the Greenwich observatory . The prime meridian was therefore long symbolised by a brass strip in the courtyard , now replaced by stainless steel , and since 16 December 1999 , it has been marked by a powerful green laser shining north across the London night sky . Global Positioning System ( GPS ) receivers show that the marking strip for the prime meridian at Greenwich is not exactly at zero degrees , zero minutes , and zero seconds but at approximately 5.3 seconds of arc to the west of the meridian ( meaning that the meridian appears to be 102 metres east of this line ) . In the past , this offset has been attributed to the establishment of reference meridians for space - based location systems such as WGS 84 ( which GPS relies on ) or that errors gradually crept into the International Time Bureau timekeeping process . The actual reason for the discrepancy is that the marking strip is indeed at astronomical longitude zero degrees , zero minutes , and zero seconds -- but GPS receivers show geodetic longitude ( specifically ITRF / WGS 84 ) . Contents ( hide ) 1 History 2 The meridian today 3 See also 4 Notes 5 References 6 External links History ( edit ) Before the establishment of a common meridian , most maritime countries established their own prime meridian , usually passing through the country in question . In 1721 , Great Britain established its own meridian passing through an early transit circle at the newly established Royal Observatory at Greenwich . The meridian was moved around 10 metres or so east on three occasions as transit circles with newer and better instruments were built , on each occasion next door to the existing one . This was to allow uninterrupted observation during each new construction . The final meridian was established as an imaginary line from the north pole to the south pole passing through the Airy transit circle . This became Great Britain 's meridian in 1851 . For all practical purposes of the period , the changes as the meridian was moved went unnoticed . Transit instruments are installed to be perpendicular to the local level ( which is a plane perpendicular to a plumb line ) . In 1884 , the International Meridian Conference took place to establish an internationally recognised single meridian . The meridian chosen was that which passed through the Airy transit circle at Greenwich and it became the prime meridian . At around the time of this conference , scientists were making measurements to determine the deflection of the vertical on a large scale . One might expect that plumb lines set up in various locations , if extended downward , would all pass through a single point , the centre of the Earth , but this is not the case , primarily due to the Earth being an ellipsoid , not a sphere . The downward extended plumb lines do n't even all intersect the rotation axis of the Earth ; this much smaller effect is due to the uneven distribution of the Earth 's mass . To make computations feasible , scientists defined ellipsoids of revolution ; a given ellipsoid would be a good compromise for measurements in a given area , such as a country or continent . The difference between the direction of a plumb line or vertical , and a line perpendicular to the surface of the ellipsoid of revolution -- a normal to said ellipsoid -- at a particular observatory , is the deflection of the vertical . A GPS receiver at the marking strip of the prime meridian . The indicated longitude is not exactly zero because the geodetic zero meridian on a geocentric reference ellipsoid ( which is what GPS positioning yields ) is located 102 metres to the east of this strip . When the Airy transit circle was built , a mercury basin was used to align the telescope to the perpendicular . Thus the circle was aligned with the local vertical or plumb line , which is deflected slightly from the normal , or line perpendicular , to the reference ellipsoid used to define geodetic latitude and longitude in the International Terrestrial Reference Frame ( which is nearly the same as the WGS - 84 system used by GPS ) . While the local vertical defined at the Airy transit circle still points to the modern celestial meridian ( the intersection of the prime meridian plane with the celestial sphere ) , it does not pass through the Earth 's rotation axis . As a result of this , the ITRF zero meridian , defined by a plane passing through the Earth 's rotation axis , is 102 metres to the east of the prime meridian . A 2015 analysis by Malys et al. shows the offset between the Airy transit circle and the ITRF / WGS 84 meridians can be explained by this deflection of the vertical alone ; other possible sources of the offset that have been proposed in the past are smaller than the current uncertainty in the deflection of the vertical near the observatory . The astronomical longitude of the Greenwich prime meridian was found to be 0.19 '' ± 0.47 '' East , i.e. the plane defined by the local vertical on the Greenwich prime meridian and the plane passing through the Earth 's rotation axis on the ITRF zero meridian are effectively parallel . However , the claim , found , e.g. , in a BBC article that this difference between astronomical and geodetic coordinates means that any measurements of transit time across the IRTF zero meridian will occur 0.352 seconds ( or 0.353 sidereal seconds ) before the transit across the `` intended meridian '' is based on a failure of understanding . The explanation by Malys et al. on the other hand is both lucid and correct . The meridian today ( edit ) As of 2017 the Greenwich meridian passes through : United Kingdom , France , Spain , Algeria , Mali , Burkina Faso , Togo , Ghana , Niger , Queen Maud Land in Antarctica .

who is the unknown god in acts 17 23
Unknown God - wikipedia Unknown God This article needs additional citations for verification . Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources . Unsourced material may be challenged and removed . ( June 2011 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) The Unknown God or Agnostos Theos ( Ancient Greek : Ἄγνωστος Θεός ) is a theory by Eduard Norden first published in 1913 that proposes , based on the Christian Apostle Paul 's Areopagus speech in Acts 17 : 23 , that in addition to the twelve main gods and the innumerable lesser deities , ancient Greeks worshipped a deity they called `` Agnostos Theos '' , that is : `` Unknown God '' , which Norden called `` Un-Greek '' . In Athens , there was a temple specifically dedicated to that god and very often Athenians would swear `` in the name of the Unknown God '' ( Νὴ τὸν Ἄγνωστον Ne ton Agnoston ) . Apollodorus , Philostratus and Pausanias wrote about the Unknown God as well . Contents 1 Paul at Athens 2 Archaeology 3 See also 4 Notes 5 External Links Paul at Athens ( edit ) Saint Paul delivering the Areopagus Sermon in Athens , by Raphael , 1515 . According to the book of Acts , contained in the Christian New Testament , when the Apostle Paul visited Athens , he saw an altar with an inscription dedicated to that god ( possibly connected to the Cylonian affair ) , and , when invited to speak to the Athenian elite at the Areopagus , gave the following speech : Acts 17 : 22 - 31 ( WEB ) : 22 Paul stood in the middle of the Areopagus , and said , `` You men of Athens , I perceive that you are very religious in all things . 23 For as I passed along , and observed the objects of your worship , I found also an altar with this inscription : ' TO AN UNKNOWN GOD . ' What therefore you worship in ignorance , this I announce to you . 24 The God who made the world and all things in it , he , being Lord of heaven and earth , does n't dwell in temples made with hands , 25 neither is he served by men 's hands , as though he needed anything , seeing he himself gives to all life and breath , and all things . 26 He made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the surface of the earth , having determined appointed seasons , and the boundaries of their dwellings , 27 that they should seek the Lord , if perhaps they might reach out for him and find him , though he is not far from each one of us . 28 ' For in him we live , and move , and have our being . ' As some of your own poets have said , ' For we are also his offspring . ' 29 Being then the offspring of God , we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold , or silver , or stone , engraved by art and design of man . 30 The times of ignorance therefore God overlooked . But now he commands that all people everywhere should repent , 31 because he has appointed a day in which he will judge the world in righteousness by the man whom he has ordained ; of which he has given assurance to all men , in that he has raised him from the dead . '' Because the Jewish God could not be named , it is possible that Paul 's Athenian listeners would have considered his god to be `` the unknown god par excellence '' . His listeners may also have understood the introduction of a new god by allusions to Aeschylus ' The Eumenides ; the irony would have been that just as the Eumenides were not new gods at all but the Furies in a new form , so was the Christian God not a new god but rather the god the Greeks already worshipped as the Unknown God . His audience would also have recognized the quotes in verse 28 as coming from Epimenides and Aratus , respectively . Archaeology ( edit ) Altar to the unknown god . There is an altar dedicated to the unknown God found in 1820 on the Palatine Hill of Rome . It contains an inscription in Latin that says : SEI DEO SEI DEIVAE SAC G SEXTIVS C F CALVINVSPR DE SENATI SENTENTIA RESTITVIT Which could be translated into English as : `` Either for a god or a sacred goddess , Caius Sextius Calvin , son of Gaius , praetor by order of the Senate restored this .

Their music has been described by music journalists as hard rock , blues rock , and , controversially , heavy metal ; the group have defined themselves as `` a rock and roll band , nothing more , nothing less '' . AC / DC underwent several line - up changes before releasing their first album , High Voltage , in 1975 . Membership subsequently stabilised until Cliff Williams replaced Mark Evans as bassist in 1977 for the album Powerage . In February 1980 , a few months after recording the album Highway to Hell , lead singer and co-songwriter Bon Scott died of `` acute alcohol poisoning '' . The group considered disbanding but stayed together , bringing in Brian Johnson as replacement for Scott . Later that year , the band released their first album with Johnson , Back in Black , which they dedicated to Scott 's memory . The album launched them to new heights of success and became their all - time best - seller . The band 's next album , For Those About to Rock We Salute You , was their first album to reach number one in the United States . The band fired Phil Rudd as drummer in 1983 , and Simon Wright filled his place until quitting in 1989 , being in turn replaced by Chris Slade . The band experienced a commercial resurgence in the early 1990s with the release of The Razors Edge . Phil Rudd returned in 1994 , contributing to the band 's 1995 album Ballbreaker . The band 's studio album Black Ice , released in 2008 , was the second highest - selling album of that year , and their biggest chart hit since For Those About to Rock , eventually reaching No. 1 on all charts worldwide . The band 's line - up remained the same until 2014 with Malcolm Young 's retirement due to early - onset dementia and Rudd 's legal troubles . In 2016 , Johnson was advised to stop touring on due to worsening hearing loss , and Guns N ' Roses frontman Axl Rose stepped in as the band 's vocalist for the remainder of that year 's dates . Long - term bass player and background vocalist Cliff Williams retired from the band at the end of their 2016 Rock or Bust world tour .

The Big Freeze of 1963 was the worst winter on record in Scotland with snow eight feet deep . A TV advertisement at the same time offered assisted travel for families for a different life in Australia . Fifteen members of the Young family left Scotland by plane in late June 1963 . Before moving into a house at 4 Burleigh Street in the suburb of Burwood they initially stayed at Villawood Migrant Hostel ( a site later developed as Villawood Immigration Detention Centre ) in Nissen huts , where George Young met and became friends with another migrant , Harry Vanda . George was the first to learn to play the guitar . He became a member of the Easybeats , one of Australia 's most successful bands of the 1960s . Malcolm followed in George 's footsteps by playing with a Newcastle , New South Wales , band called the Velvet Underground ( not to be confused with the New York - based Velvet Underground ) . Their older brother Alex Young chose to remain in Britain to pursue musical interests . In 1967 , Alexander formed and played bass in the London - based band Grapefruit -- initially called `` The Grapefruit '' -- with three former members of Tony Rivers and the Castaways , John Perry , Geoff Swettenham , and Pete Swettenham . The band 's logo was designed in 1977 by Gerard Huerta . It first appeared on the international version of Let There Be Rock . Malcolm and Angus Young developed the idea for the band 's name after their sister , Margaret Young , saw the initials `` AC / DC '' on a sewing machine . `` AC / DC '' is an abbreviation meaning `` alternating current / direct current '' electricity . The brothers felt that this name symbolised the band 's raw energy , power - driven performances of their music . `` AC / DC '' is pronounced one letter at a time , though the band are colloquially known as `` Acca Dacca '' in Australia . The AC / DC band name is stylised with a high voltage sign separating the `` AC '' and `` DC '' and has been used on all studio albums , with the exception of the international version of Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap . Early years ( edit ) In November 1973 , Malcolm and Angus Young formed AC / DC and recruited bassist Larry Van Kriedt , vocalist Dave Evans , and Colin Burgess , ex-Masters Apprentices drummer . Pushing hard for the band 's success were Australia 's roadie Ray Arnold and his partner Alan Kissack . Gene Pierson booked the band to play at Chequers nightclub on New Year 's Eve , 1973 . By this time , Angus Young had adopted his characteristic school - uniform stage outfit . The idea was his sister Margaret 's . Angus had tried other costumes : Spider - Man , Zorro , a gorilla , and a parody of Superman , named Super-Ang . In its early days , most members of the band dressed in some form of glam or satin outfit . On stage , Evans was occasionally replaced by the band 's first manager , Dennis Laughlin , original lead singer with Sherbet . In Paul Stenning 's book AC / DC : Two Sides To Every Glory it is stated that Evans did not get along with Laughlin , which also contributed to the band 's ill feeling toward Evans . By the middle of 1974 , the band had built up a strong live reputation which led to a support slot for the visiting Lou Reed . Some time in 1974 , on the recommendation of Michael Chugg , veteran Melbourne promoter Michael Browning booked the band to play at his club , the Hard Rock . He did not like their glam rock image and felt that Evans was the wrong singer for the band , but was impressed by the Young brothers ' guitar playing . Shortly afterwards , he received a call from the band ; Laughlin had quit as manager , and they were stuck in Adelaide with no money . Browning agreed to bail them out and booked them for another gig at the Hard Rock . Following the gig , they agreed to take him on as their new manager , with the co-operation of their older brother George and Harry Vanda . The Young brothers decided to abandon the glam rock image which had already been adopted by Melbourne band The Skyhooks and pursue a harder blues - rock sound . To this end they agreed that Evans was not a suitable frontman for the group . Around this time , they also moved their base to Melbourne , where they frequently played at the Hard Rock . Bon Scott era ( 1974 -- 1980 ) ( edit ) Beginnings ( 1974 -- 1975 ) ( edit ) In September 1974 , Ronald Belford `` Bon '' Scott , an experienced vocalist and friend of George Young , replaced Dave Evans after friend Vince Lovegrove recommended him to George Young . Scott 's appointment coincided with him working as a chauffeur for the band at the time until an audition promoted him to lead singer . Like the Young brothers , Scott was born in Scotland and emigrated to Australia in his childhood . The band had recorded only one single with Evans , `` Can I Sit Next To You , Girl '' / `` Rockin ' in the Parlour '' ; the song was re-written and re-recorded with Bon Scott as `` Can I Sit Next to You Girl '' . `` It 's a Long Way to the Top '' ( 1975 ) The second single of High Voltage demonstrates a combination of the bagpipes with more traditional rock instruments while the lyrics discuss the perils of being in a rock band . <Td_colspan="2"> Problems playing this file ? See media help . By October 1974 , the Australia - only album High Voltage had been recorded . It took only ten days and was based on instrumental songs written by the Young brothers , with lyrics added by Scott . Within a few months , the band 's line - up had stabilised , featuring Scott , the Young brothers , bassist Mark Evans , and drummer Phil Rudd . Later that year they released the single `` It 's a Long Way to the Top '' , for which a well - known promotional video was made for the program Countdown , featuring the band miming the song on the back of a flatbed truck . It was included on their second album , T.N.T. ( 1975 ) , which was also released only in Australia and New Zealand . AC / DC were scheduled to play at the 1975 Sunbury music festival ; however , they went home without performing following an altercation with the management of headlining act Deep Purple . Between 1974 and 1977 , aided by regular appearances on Molly Meldrum 's Countdown , the ABC 's nationally broadcast pop - music television show , AC / DC became one of the most popular and successful acts in Australia . Their performance on 3 April 1977 was their last live TV appearance for more than 20 years . International success ( 1976 -- 1980 ) ( edit ) Former vocalist Bon Scott ( centre ) pictured with guitarist Angus Young ( left ) and bassist Cliff Williams ( back ) , performing at the Ulster Hall in August 1979 Browning sent promo material to contacts in London , which came to the attention of Phil Carson of Atlantic Records . In 1976 , the band signed an international deal with Atlantic Records . On arrival in London , their scheduled tour with Back Street Crawler was cancelled following the death of Paul Kossoff . As a result , they went back to playing smaller venues to build a local following until their label organised the `` Lock Up Your Daughters '' tour sponsored by Sounds magazine , the only major music magazine which was still relatively receptive to traditional rock music . At the time , punk rock was breaking and came to dominate the pages of the major British music weeklies , NME and Melody Maker . AC / DC were sometimes identified with the punk rock movement by the British press , but the band hated punk rock , believing it to be a passing fad -- according to manager Michael Browning `` it was n't possible to even hold a conversation with AC / DC about punk without them getting totally pissed off '' . Their reputation managed to survive the punk upheavals of the late 1970s , and they maintained a cult following in the UK throughout this time . Angus Young gained notoriety for mooning the audience during live performances . The first AC / DC album to gain worldwide distribution was a 1976 compilation of tracks taken from the High Voltage and T.N.T. LPs . Also titled High Voltage , and released on the Atlantic Records label , the album has to date sold three million copies worldwide . The track selection was heavily weighted toward the more recent T.N.T. , including only two songs from their first LP . The band 's next album , Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap , was released in the same year in both Australian and international versions , like its predecessor . Track listings varied worldwide , and the international version of the album also featured the T.N.T. track `` Rocker '' , which had previously not been released internationally . The original Australian version included `` Jailbreak '' ( now more readily available on the 1984 compilation EP ' 74 Jailbreak or as a live version on the 1992 Live album ) . Dirty Deeds was not released in the US until 1981 , by which time the band were at the peak of their popularity . After a brief tour of Sweden , they returned to London where they set new attendance records during their residency at the Marquee . However , their appearance at the 1976 Reading Festival failed to get a response from the crowd . They toured extensively throughout Europe , then returned to tour Australia in late 1976 to rebuild their finances and record the Let There Be Rock album . In early 1977 they returned to Britain and began a European tour with Black Sabbath . While Bon Scott and Ozzy Osbourne quickly became friends , relations were less than cordial between the other members of the respective bands . In one incident , Geezer Butler pulled a knife on Malcolm Young , though it was a `` silly '' flick - knife comb . Later in the year they toured with Rainbow . Towards the end of 1977 , bassist Mark Evans was fired ; purportedly to find someone who could sing backup vocals . Evans described disagreement with Angus and Malcolm as a contributing factor . He was replaced by Cliff Williams . Neither of the Young brothers has elaborated on the departure of Evans , though Richard Griffiths , the CEO of Epic Records and a booking agent for AC / DC in the mid-1970s , later commented , `` You knew Mark was n't going to last , he was just too much of a nice guy . '' Mark Evans ' autobiography , Dirty Deeds : My Life Inside / Outside of AC / DC , released in 2011 , predominantly dealt with his time in AC / DC , including being fired . Bronze statue of Bon Scott , unveiled in Fremantle , Western Australia , in October 2008 AC / DC were a somewhat formative influence on the new wave of British heavy metal bands who emerged in the late 1970s , such as Saxon and Iron Maiden , in part as a reaction to the decline of traditional early 1970s hard rock bands . In 2007 , critics noted that AC / DC , along with Thin Lizzy , UFO , Scorpions , and Judas Priest , were among `` the second generation of rising stars ready to step into the breach as the old guard waned . '' AC / DC 's first American radio exposure was through Bill Bartlett at Jacksonville station WPDQ / WAIV in 1975 , two years before they played their first US concert as support band for Canadian group Moxy in Austin , Texas , on 27 July 1977 . Under the guidance of booking agent Doug Thaler of American Talent International and later the management of Leber - Krebs , they gained invaluable experience of the US stadium circuit , supporting leading rock acts such as Ted Nugent , Aerosmith , Kiss , Styx , UFO , and Blue Öyster Cult , and co-headlined with bands such as Cheap Trick . The 1978 release of Powerage marked the debut of bassist Cliff Williams , and with its harder riffs , followed the blueprint set by Let There Be Rock . Only one single was released from Powerage , `` Rock ' n ' Roll Damnation / Sin City '' . An appearance at the Apollo Theatre , Glasgow during the Powerage tour was recorded and released as If You Want Blood You 've Got It . The major breakthrough in the band 's career came in their collaboration with producer `` Mutt '' Lange on the album Highway to Hell , released in 1979 . Eddie Van Halen notes this to be his favourite AC / DC record , along with Powerage . It became the first AC / DC LP to break into the US top 100 , eventually reaching No. 17 , and it propelled AC / DC into the top ranks of hard rock acts . Highway to Hell had lyrics that shifted away from flippant and comical toward more central rock themes , putting increased emphasis on backing vocals but still featured AC / DC 's signature sound : loud , simple , pounding riffs and grooving backbeats . Scott 's death ( 1980 ) ( edit ) As 1980 began , the band began work on a new album that would eventually become Back in Black , but Bon Scott would not live to see it finished . On 19 February 1980 , Scott passed out in the car on the way back to friend Alistair Kinnear 's house after a night of heavy drinking at the Music Machine club in London . Upon arrival at his home , Kinnear was unable to move Scott from the car into his home for the night , so he left him in the car overnight to sleep off the effects of the alcohol . Unable to wake Scott late the next morning , Kinnear rushed him to King 's College Hospital in Camberwell , where Scott was pronounced dead on arrival . Pulmonary aspiration of vomit was the cause of Scott 's death , and the official cause was listed as `` acute alcohol poisoning '' . Scott 's family buried him in Fremantle , Western Australia , the area they emigrated to when he was a boy . Inconsistencies in the official accounts of Scott 's death have been cited in conspiracy theories , which suggest that Scott died of a heroin overdose , or was killed by exhaust fumes redirected into the car , or that Kinnear did not exist . Scott 's asthma has also been cited as playing a role in his death , but this has been challenged more recently . Brian Johnson era ( 1980 -- 2016 ) ( edit ) Rebirth ( 1980 -- 1983 ) ( edit ) Brian Johnson live with AC / DC in 2008 Following Scott 's death the band briefly considered quitting , but encouraged by the insistence from Scott 's parents that he would have wanted them to go on , they eventually decided to continue and went about finding a new frontman . Among the applicants were Allan Fryer of Fat Lip and Gary Pickford - Hopkins who , like Stevie Wright of the Easybeats , were touted by the press as most - certain replacements . Various candidates were considered for his replacement , including : ex-Moxy member Buzz Shearman , who was not able to join because of voice problems , Slade vocalist , Noddy Holder , and ex-Back Street Crawler vocalist Terry Slesser . At the advice of Lange , the group brought in ex-Geordie singer Brian Johnson , who impressed the group . For the audition , Johnson sang `` Whole Lotta Rosie '' from Let There Be Rock and Ike & Tina Turner 's `` Nutbush City Limits '' . After the band begrudgingly worked through the rest of the list of applicants in the following days , Johnson returned for a second rehearsal . Angus Young later recalled , `` I remember the first time I had ever heard Brian 's ( Johnson ) name was from Bon . Bon had mentioned that he had been in England once touring with a band and he had mentioned that Brian had been in a band called Geordie and Bon had said ' Brian Johnson , he was a great rock and roll singer in the style of Little Richard . ' And that was Bon 's big idol , Little Richard . I think when he saw Brian at that time , to Bon it was ' Well he 's a guy that knows what rock and roll is all about . ' He mentioned that to us in Australia . I suppose when we decided to continue , Brian was the first name that Malcolm and myself came up with , so we said we should see if we can find him . '' Cliff Williams in 1981 during the For Those About to Rock Tour On 29 March , Malcolm Young called the singer to offer him the job , to Johnson 's surprise . Out of respect for Bon Scott , the band wanted a frontman who would not be a mere imitator of him . In addition to his distinctive voice , demeanor and love of classic soul and blues music , the group liked Johnson 's engaging personality . Johnson was officially announced as the new lead singer of AC / DC on 1 April 1980 . With Johnson the band completed the songwriting that they had begun with Scott for the album Back in Black . Recording took place at Compass Point Studios in The Bahamas a few months after Scott 's death . Back in Black , produced by Mutt Lange and recorded by Tony Platt , became their biggest - selling album and a hard - rock landmark ; hits include `` Hells Bells '' , `` You Shook Me All Night Long '' , `` Rock and Roll Ai n't Noise Pollution '' and the title track . The album reached No. 1 in the UK and No. 4 in the US , where it spent 131 weeks on the Billboard 200 album chart . The follow - up album , 1981 's For Those About to Rock We Salute You , also sold well and was positively received by critics . The album featured two of the band 's most popular singles : `` Let 's Get It Up '' and the title track , `` For Those About to Rock '' , which reached No. 13 and No. 15 in the UK , respectively . Departure of Rudd and commercial decline ( 1983 -- 1987 ) ( edit ) `` Back in Black '' ( 1980 ) The riff of `` Back in Black '' is one of the most recognised in hard rock history . The song ranked No. 187 on Rolling Stone ' s list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time and reached No. 37 in the US . <Td_colspan="2"> Problems playing this file ? See media help . The band split with producer Mutt Lange for their self - produced 1983 album , Flick of the Switch , in an effort to recover the rawness and simplicity of their early albums , but it was considered underdeveloped and unmemorable ; one critic stated that the band `` had made the same album nine times '' . AC / DC were voted the eighth - biggest disappointment of the year in the 1984 Kerrang ! readers ' poll . However , Flick of the Switch eventually reached No. 4 on the UK charts , and AC / DC had minor success with the singles `` Nervous Shakedown '' and `` Flick of the Switch '' . After having problems with drugs and alcohol , drummer Phil Rudd 's friendship with Malcolm Young deteriorated and eventually escalated to a physical confrontation after which Rudd was fired halfway through the Flick of the Switch sessions . Former Procol Harum drummer B.J. Wilson was drafted in to help complete the recordings , but his drum parts were eventually not used , as Rudd had already completed his drum parts . Rudd was replaced by Simon Wright in the summer of 1983 after the band held over 700 auditions in the US and UK . Simon Kirke of Free and Bad Company fame , and Paul Thompson of Roxy Music were two of the drummers auditioned . Fly on the Wall , produced by the Young brothers in 1985 , was also regarded as uninspired and directionless . A music concept video of the same name featured the band at a bar , playing five of the album 's ten songs . In 1986 , the group returned to the charts with the made - for - radio `` Who Made Who '' . The album Who Made Who was the soundtrack to Stephen King 's film Maximum Overdrive ; it brought together older hits , such as `` You Shook Me All Night Long '' , with newer songs such as title track and two new instrumentals , `` D.T. '' and `` Chase the Ace '' . Back to commercial success ( 1987 -- 1990 ) ( edit ) In February 1988 , AC / DC were inducted into the Australian Recording Industry Association 's Hall of Fame . AC / DC 's 1988 album , Blow Up Your Video , was recorded at Studio Miraval in Le Val , France , and reunited the band with their original producers , Harry Vanda and George Young . The group recorded nineteen songs , choosing ten for the final release ; though the album was later criticised for containing excessive `` filler '' , it was a commercial success . Blow Up Your Video sold more copies than the previous two studio releases combined , reaching No. 2 on the UK charts -- AC / DC 's highest position since `` Back in Black '' in 1980 . The album featured the UK top - twenty single `` Heatseeker '' and popular songs such as `` That 's the Way I Wanna Rock ' n ' Roll '' . The Blow Up Your Video World Tour began in February 1988 , in Perth , Australia . That April , following live appearances across Europe , Malcolm Young announced that he was taking time off from touring , principally to begin recovery from his alcoholism . Another member of the Young family , Stevie Young , temporarily took Malcolm 's place . Following the tour , Wright left the group to work on the upcoming Dio album Lock Up the Wolves , and was replaced by session veteran Chris Slade . Johnson was unavailable for several months while finalising his divorce , so the Young brothers wrote all the songs for the next album , a practice they continued for all subsequent releases through Rock or Bust in 2014 . Popularity regained ( 1990 -- 1994 ) ( edit ) Phil Rudd performs at the KeyArena in Seattle on 12 August 1996 during the Ballbreaker World Tour The next album , The Razors Edge , was recorded in Vancouver , British Columbia , Canada , and was mixed and engineered by Mike Fraser and produced by Bruce Fairbairn , who had previously worked with Aerosmith and Bon Jovi . Released in 1990 , it was a major success for the band , and included the hits `` Thunderstruck '' and `` Are You Ready '' , which reached No. 5 and No. 16 respectively on Billboard 's Mainstream Rock Tracks Chart , and `` Moneytalks '' , which peaked at No. 23 on the Billboard Hot 100 . The album went multi-platinum and reached the US top ten . Several shows on the Razors Edge tour were recorded for the 1992 live album , titled Live . Live was produced by Fairbairn , and has been called one of the best live albums of the 1990s . AC / DC headlined the Monsters of Rock show during this tour , which was released on DVD as Live at Donington . During The Razors Edge tour , three fans were killed at a concert at the Salt Palace in Salt Lake City , Utah in January 1991 : when the concert began fans rushed the stage crushing the three and injuring others . It took 20 minutes before venue security and the group understood the severity of the situation and stopped the concert . AC / DC settled with the victims ' families out of court . As a result of this incident , the Salt Palace eliminated festival seating from future events . In 1993 , AC / DC recorded `` Big Gun '' for the soundtrack of the Arnold Schwarzenegger movie Last Action Hero . Released as a single , the song reached No. 1 on the US Mainstream Rock chart -- the band 's first No. 1 single on that chart . Popularity confirmed ( 1994 -- 2008 ) ( edit ) In 1994 , Angus and Malcolm invited Rudd to several jam sessions . He was eventually rehired to replace Slade , whose amicable departure arose in part because of the band 's strong desire to again work with Rudd . Recorded at the Ocean Way Studios in Los Angeles by the reunited 1980 -- 83 line - up and produced by Rick Rubin , Ballbreaker was released in 1995 . The first single from the album was `` Hard as a Rock '' . Two more singles were released from the album : `` Hail Caesar '' and `` Cover You in Oil '' . In 1997 , a box set named Bonfire was released . It contained four albums ; a remastered version of Back in Black ; Volts ( a disc with alternative takes , outtakes , and stray live cuts ) and two live albums , Live from the Atlantic Studios and Let There Be Rock : The Movie . Live from the Atlantic Studios was recorded on 7 December 1977 at the Atlantic Studios in New York . Let There Be Rock : The Movie was a double album recorded in 1979 at the Pavillon de Paris and was the soundtrack of a motion picture , AC / DC : Let There Be Rock . The US version of the box set included a colour booklet , a two - sided poster , a sticker , a temporary tattoo , a keychain bottle opener , and a guitar pick . Angus Young performs in Cologne , Germany in 2001 during the Stiff Upper Lip Tour In 2000 , the band released Stiff Upper Lip , produced by brother George Young at the Warehouse Studio , again in Vancouver . The album was better received by critics than Ballbreaker but was considered lacking in new ideas . The Australian release included a bonus disc with three promotional videos and several live performances recorded in Madrid , Spain in 1996 . Stiff Upper Lip reached No. 1 in five countries , including Argentina and Germany ; No. 2 in three countries , Spain , France and Switzerland ; No. 3 in Australia ; No. 5 in Canada and Portugal ; and No. 7 in Norway , the US and Hungary . The first single , `` Stiff Upper Lip '' , remained at No. 1 on the US Mainstream Rock charts for four weeks . The other singles released also charted : `` Satellite Blues '' and `` Safe in New York City '' reached No. 7 and No. 31 on Billboard 's Mainstream Rock Tracks , respectively . In 2002 , AC / DC signed a long - term , multi-album deal with Sony Music , who went on to release a series of remastered albums as part of their AC / DC remasters series . Each release contained an expanded booklet featuring rare photographs , memorabilia , and notes . In 2003 , the entire back - catalogue ( except Ballbreaker and Stiff Upper Lip ) was remastered and re-released . Ballbreaker was eventually re-released in October 2005 ; Stiff Upper Lip was later re-released in April 2007 . Also in 2003 , the band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame . On 30 July 2003 , the band performed with the Rolling Stones and Rush at Molson Canadian Rocks for Toronto . The concert , held before an audience of half a million , was intended to help the city overcome the negative publicity stemming from the effects of a 2003 SARS epidemic . The concert holds the record for the largest paid music event in North American history . The band came second in a list of Australia 's highest - earning entertainers for 2005 , and sixth for 2006 , despite having neither toured since 2003 nor released an album since 2000 . Verizon Wireless has gained the rights to release AC / DC 's full albums and the entire Live at Donington concert to download in 2008 . On 16 October 2007 , Columbia Records released a double and triple DVD titled Plug Me In . The set consists of five and seven hours of rare footage , and even a recording of AC / DC at a high school performing `` School Days '' , `` TNT '' , `` She 's Got Balls '' , and `` It 's a Long Way to the Top '' . As with Family Jewels , disc one contains rare shows of the band with Bon Scott , and disc two is about the Brian Johnson era . The collector 's edition contains an extra DVD with 21 more rare performances of both Scott and Johnson and more interviews .

In late September 2009 , the band rescheduled six shows when Brian Johnson underwent an operation for ulcers . On 29 September , the band announced a collection of studio and live rarities , Backtracks , which was released on 10 November 2009 as a 3 - CD / 2 - DVD / 1 - LP box - set .

This displaced The Wiggles from the number one spot for the first time in four years . On 19 April 2010 , AC / DC released Iron Man 2 , the soundtrack for the eponymous film which compiled earlier tracks from the band 's studio albums . One month later , the band headlined Download Festival at Donington Park , and closed the Black Ice World Tour in Bilbao , Spain on 28 June 2010 , after 20 months in which AC / DC went to 108 cities in over 28 countries , with an estimated audience of over five million people . Three concerts in December 2009 at the River Plate Stadium in Argentina were released as the DVD Live at River Plate on 10 May 2011 . An exclusive single from the DVD , featuring the songs `` Shoot to Thrill '' and `` War Machine '' , was issued on Record Store Day . In 2011 , the band also issued on DVD and Blu - ray the concert movie AC / DC : Let There Be Rock , which had its theatrical release in 1980 . Multiple lineup changes , Rock or Bust ( 2011 -- 2017 ) ( edit ) Angus stated in an interview in early May 2011 that the band was beginning to plan another world tour , saying , `` Now we 're thinking , ' How can we ever better the ' Black Ice ' world tour ? ' But we will . '' At the band 's Live at River Plate DVD premiere on 6 May 2011 at the Hammersmith Apollo in London , England , Angus said that there were plans for the group to release a new studio album `` within the next couple of years '' , which the tour would support . In May 2012 , Malcolm Young confirmed that the band were working on a potential follow - up to 2008 's Black Ice . But he warned that fans were in for a longer wait than expected , after lead singer Brian Johnson suggested there would be new material the next year . Malcolm stated , `` You know what Brian 's like . He just says things and then walks away . It 'll be a little while -- a year or two anyway . I 've been doing some jamming on some song ideas but I do that all the time , as do the rest of the band . We are still working . But we had a long rest between Stiff Upper Lip and Black Ice , so I think we need a couple of years to recuperate and work on it a bit more . '' On 19 November 2012 , AC / DC released Live at River Plate , their first live album in 20 years . Malcolm Young 's retirement and death ( edit ) On 16 April 2014 , in response to earlier reports that the band may be retiring due to Malcolm Young 's illness , Brian Johnson commented that AC / DC were not retiring , stating `` We are definitely getting together in May in Vancouver . We 're going to pick up guitars , have a plonk and see if anybody has got any tunes or ideas . If anything happens we 'll record it . '' AC / DC subsequently announced in an official statement on their Facebook page in April 2014 that Malcolm Young would be taking a break from the band due to his ill health . It ended : `` The band will continue to make music . '' In July 2014 , AC / DC announced that they had finished recording their next album and that Malcolm 's nephew , Stevie Young , replaced Malcolm in the studio . On 23 September 2014 , Alberts Management confirmed that Malcolm had officially departed from the band . Malcolm 's last show with the band was on 28 June 2010 in Bilbao , Spain ; he died on 18 November 2017 at the age of 64 . `` Rock or Bust '' ( edit ) AC / DC performs at Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys in Barcelona on 29 May 2015 during their Rock or Bust Tour Drummer Phil Rudd released his first solo album , Head Job , on 29 August 2014 . He confirmed that there would be another AC / DC tour , and stated that the band had no intention of retiring , adding , `` We 'll all have to be dead before it stops . '' On 23 September 2014 , Alberts Management revealed that the band 's new record entitled Rock or Bust , featuring eleven new tracks , would be released on 28 November 2014 as the first AC / DC album in the band 's history without Malcolm Young on the recordings . The band also announced plans for a world tour to promote the new album with Malcolm and Angus ' nephew Stevie Young as Malcolm 's replacement . Phil Rudd 's replacement ( edit ) On 6 November 2014 Rudd was charged with attempting to procure a murder , threatening to kill , possession of methamphetamine , and possession of cannabis , following a police raid on his home . The charge of attempting to procure a murder was withdrawn the following day , but the other charges remained . AC / DC released a statement clarifying that the tour promoting Rock or Bust would continue , but did not say whether or not Rudd would participate , or if he was still a member of the band . In an interview on 13 November , Angus Young stated that the band had experienced problems with Rudd earlier in the year when recording Rock or Bust , and that his situation had taken the band by surprise . Rudd had also missed video and photo shoots , and with reference to Rudd 's future in the band , Young added , `` So , at this stage , it 's a pretty tough call for us . '' He also said the band would continue : `` He 's got to sort himself out I think ... At this point it 's kind of a question mark . But if we 're touring , there will be a drummer in place , put it that way . '' At the charity signing before the Grammy Awards , the band was photographed together with former drummer Chris Slade . It was later confirmed that he had rejoined the band for the Grammys and upcoming tour . In April 2015 , Rudd pleaded guilty to drug charges and threatening to kill a former assistant . Shortly thereafter , the band 's web site removed Rudd as the band 's drummer and replaced him with Slade . On 9 July 2015 Rudd was denied a discharge without conviction and sentenced to eight months ' home detention . Brian Johnson 's hearing loss and departure ( edit ) On 7 March 2016 , the band announced that the final ten dates of the Rock or Bust World Tour would be rescheduled as Johnson 's doctors had ordered him to stop touring immediately , as his hearing loss had accelerated and he risked complete deafness if he persisted on the road . The ten cancelled dates would be performed `` likely with a guest vocalist '' later in the year , leaving Johnson 's future in touring with the group uncertain . Johnson later stated on The Howard Stern Show that his hearing loss did not come from performing for 36 years with AC / DC , but rather his love of auto racing and having forgotten to put in ear plugs during one race that ruptured his left ear drum . However , on 15 March 2016 , American comedian Jim Breuer ( a friend of Johnson ) revealed on his podcast that Johnson had received a second opinion on his hearing and it was not as bad as initially thought . Nonetheless , Breuer mentioned that Johnson told him that he was essentially fired from AC / DC and that he had not heard from the band since the announcement of the tour being postponed , adding that Angus Young wants to continue the band for at least another ten years and do at least one more studio album and world tour . Breuer later clarified his comments on Facebook that did not end speculation on Johnson 's future with the band . On 19 April 2016 , Johnson made an official statement regarding his health problems and inability to tour . In the statement , he acknowledged his ongoing hearing difficulties but stated his intentions to continue recording and potentially resume touring if his health improves sufficiently . He also specifically thanked Angus Young and Cliff Williams for their support during his AC / DC tenure . His last show with AC / DC was on 28 February 2016 ; at the Sprint Center in Kansas City . Axl Rose Joins ( edit ) AC / DC performs at the Verizon Center in Washington , D.C. on 17 September 2016 during their Rock or Bust Tour On 16 April 2016 , AC / DC released a statement announcing the addition of Guns N ' Roses frontman Axl Rose as the band 's lead vocalist for the remainder of their 2016 tour dates . The statement reads : `` AC / DC band members would like to thank Brian Johnson for his contributions and dedication to the band throughout the years . We wish him all the best with his hearing issues and future ventures . As much as we want this tour to end as it started , we understand , respect and support Brian 's decision to stop touring and save his hearing . We are dedicated to fulfilling the remainder of our touring commitments to everyone that has supported us over the years , and are fortunate that Axl Rose has kindly offered his support to help us fulfill this commitment . AC / DC will resume their Rock or Bust World Tour with Axl Rose joining on vocals . '' Departure of Cliff Williams ( edit ) On 8 July 2016 , Cliff Williams indicated he was retiring from the band in an interview with Gulfshore Life , saying `` It 's been what I 've known for the past 40 years , but after this tour I 'm backing off of touring and recording . Losing Malcolm , the thing with Phil and now with Brian , it 's a changed animal . I feel in my gut it 's the right thing . '' At the end of the Rock or Bust Tour he released a video statement confirming his retirement . His last show with AC / DC was in Philadelphia , on 20 September 2016 . Future of band ( edit ) On 21 September 2016 , the day after the band 's final show with Williams , it was reported that Axl Rose would be joining the band full - time and that he and Angus would continue AC / DC with different musicians . Young 's friend Angry Anderson said in a March 2018 interview that Young intended to make a new album with Rose . In August 2018 , however , several sources speculated that both Johnson and Rudd are working with the band again , as the pair were photographed at The Warehouse Studio in Vancouver , B.C. , where the band had previously recorded their last three studio albums . Musical style ( edit ) AC / DC have referred to themselves as `` a rock and roll band , nothing more , nothing less '' . In the opinion of Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic , they are `` one of the defining acts of ' 70s hard rock '' and reactionary to the period 's art rock and arena rock excesses : `` AC / DC 's rock was minimalist -- no matter how huge and bludgeoning their guitar chords were , there was a clear sense of space and restraint . '' According to Alexis Petridis , their music is `` hard - edged , wilfully basic blues - rock '' featuring humourous sexual innuendo and lyrics about rock and roll . Music academic Robert McParland described the band 's sound as being defined by the heavy rock guitar of the Young brothers , layered power chords , and forceful vocals . `` For some , AC / DC are the ultimate heavy metal act '' , Tim Jonze wrote in The Guardian , `` but for others , AC / DC are n't a heavy metal act at all , they 're a classic rock band -- and calling them heavy metal is an act of treachery . '' On the controversy of categorizing their music , McParland wrote : `` AC / DC will assert that they are not specifically a metal band . Their music -- loud , hard , and guitar driven -- may best be described as hard rock . However , there are people who will say that they are indisuputably metal . Therein lies the ongoing problem of categorization . While AC / DC has referenced the underworld and they have given their listeners ' Highway to Hell ' and ' Hell 's Bells , ' their songs are constructed on straightforward major and minor power chords . They are not modally developed as are a good deal of heavy metal compositions . Their sound is loud and crisp , not muddy or down - tuned . '' According to Vulture music journalist David Marchese , the instrumental foundation of the band 's simple sound was the drummer -- Rudd , Wright , or Slade -- striking the kick drum on the first and third beat of every measure , and the snare drum on the second and fourth beat ; bassist Williams consistently downpicking an eighth note ; Angus Young performing lead parts that possessed `` a clear architecture and even sort of swing , in a frenzied , half - demented way '' ; and Malcolm Young 's `` propulsive '' yet nuanced rhythm guitar featuring `` little chuks , stutters , and silences that give the monstrous riffs life '' . For the majority of Malcolm Young 's tenure in AC / DC , he used a Marshall Super Bass head to amplify his rhythm guitar while recording in the studio . According to Chris Gill of Guitar World , the amplifier helped define his signature guitar tone : `` clean but as loud as possible to ride on the razor 's edge of power amp distortion and deliver the ideal combination of grind , twang , clang and crunch , with no distorted preamp ' hair , ' fizz or compression '' , as heard on songs such as `` Let There Be Rock '' , `` Dirty Deeds '' , `` For Those About to Rock '' , and `` Thunderstruck '' . During 1978 to 1980 , however , Young used a Marshall 2203 100 - watt master volume head , which Gill speculates may have contributed to a `` slightly more distorted and dark '' guitar tone on the albums from that period , including Powerage and Back in Black . With the recording of Back in Black in 1980 , rock journalist Joe S. Harrington believed the band had departed further from the blues - oriented rock of their previous albums , and toward a more dynamic attack that adopted punk rock 's `` high - energy implications '' and transmuted their hard rock / heavy metal songs into `` more pop - oriented blasts '' . The band would remain faithful for the remainder of their career , to this `` impeccably ham - handed '' musical style : `` the guitars were compacted into a singular statement of rhythmic efficiency , the rhythm section provided the thunderhorse overdrive , and vocalist Johnson belowed and brayed like the most unhinged practitioner of bluesy top - man dynamics since vintage Robert Plant . '' In a comparison of AC / DC 's vocalists , Robert Christgau said Bon Scott exhibited a `` blokelike croak '' and `` charm '' , often singing about sexual aggression in the guise of fun : `` Like Ian Hunter or Roger Chapman though without their panache , he has fun being a dirty young man '' . Johnson , in his opinion , possessed `` three times the range and wattage '' as a vocalist while projecting the character of a `` bloke as fantasy - fiction demigod '' . By the time Johnson had fully acclimated himself with 1981 's For Those About to Rock We Salute You , Christgau said he defined `` an anthemic grandiosity more suitable to ( the band 's ) precious - metal status than Bon Scott 's old - fashioned raunch '' , albeit in a less intelligent manner . Controversy ( edit ) As with many bands of that time , AC / DC ran afoul of the Satanic panic of the 1980s . This general fear of modern hard rock and heavy metal was greatly increased in the band 's case when serial killer Richard Ramirez was arrested . Ramirez , nicknamed the `` Night Stalker '' by the press , told police that `` Night Prowler '' from the 1979 Highway to Hell album had driven him to commit murder . Police also claimed that Ramirez was wearing an AC / DC shirt and left an AC / DC hat at one of the crime scenes . Accusations that AC / DC were devil worshippers were made , the lyrics of `` Night Prowler '' were analysed , and some newspapers attempted to link Ramirez 's Satanism with AC / DC 's name , arriving at the conclusion that AC / DC actually stood for Anti-Christ / Devil 's Child ( or Devil 's Children ) . Throughout the band 's career , their music has been criticised as simplistic , monotonous , deliberately lowbrow , and sexist . David Marchese from Vulture wrote that , `` regardless of the lyricist , whether it was Scott ( who was capable of real wit and color ) , Johnson , or the Young brothers , there 's a deep strain of misogyny in the band 's output that veers from feeling terribly dated to straight - up reprehensible . '' According to Christgau in 1988 , `` the brutal truth is that sexism has never kept a great rock - and - roller down -- from Muddy to Lemmy , lots of dynamite music has objectified women in objectionable ways . But rotely is not among those ways '' , in regards to AC / DC . Fans of the band have defended their music by highlighting its `` bawdy humour '' , while members of the group have generally been dismissive of claims that their songs are sexist , arguing that they are meant to be in jest . In an interview with Sylvie Simmons for Mojo , Angus called the band `` pranksters more than anything else '' , while Malcolm said `` we 're not like some macho band . We take the music far more seriously than we take the lyrics , which are just throwaway lines . '' Marchese regarded the musical aspect of the Youngs ' songs `` strong enough to render the words a functional afterthought '' , as well as `` deceptively plain , devastatingly effective , and extremely lucrative '' . The Guardian 's Fiona Sturges said that while she is a feminist , and AC / DC are a problematic group for her , she nonetheless loves their music , believing it would be `` daft as opposed to damaging '' for female listeners if they can understand the band to be `` a bunch of archly sex - obsessed idiots with sharp tunes and some seriously killer riffs '' . In spite of `` Carry Me Home '' 's disdain for its female subject , the rape fantasy of `` Let Me Put My Love in You '' , and the generally one - dimensional portrayals of women , Sturges believed songs such as `` Whole Lotta Rosie '' and `` You Shook Me All Night Long '' demonstrated that the female characters `` are also having a good time and are , more often than not , in the driving seat in sexual terms ... it 's the men who come over as passive and hopeless , awestruck in the presence of sexual partners more experienced and adept than them . '' Accolades ( edit ) The street sign for ACDC Lane , Melbourne AC / DC were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on 10 March 2003 . During the ceremony the band performed `` Highway to Hell '' and `` You Shook Me All Night Long '' , with guest vocals provided by host Steven Tyler of Aerosmith . He described the band 's power chords as `` the thunder from down under that gives you the second most powerful surge that can flow through your body . '' During the acceptance speech , Brian Johnson quoted their 1977 song `` Let There Be Rock '' . On 22 March 2000 , the municipality of Leganés ( near Madrid ) named a street in honour of the band as `` Calle de AC / DC '' ( `` AC / DC Street '' ) . Malcolm and Angus attended the inauguration with many fans . Later that day , the plaque with the name of the group was stolen , perhaps by an enthusiast or collector . The plaque was replaced two hours later , and stolen once again a mere three days after the fact . The plaque had since been stolen numerous times , forcing the municipality of Leganés to begin selling replicas of the official street plaque . In May 2003 , the Young brothers accepted a Ted Albert Award for Outstanding Service to Australian Music at the 2003 Music Winners Awards , during which Malcolm paid special tribute to Bon Scott , who was also a recipient of the award . On 1 October 2004 , a central Melbourne thoroughfare , Corporation Lane , was renamed ACDC Lane in honour of the band . The City of Melbourne forbade the use of the slash character in street names , so the four letters were combined . The lane is near Swanston Street where , on the back of a truck , the band recorded their video for the 1975 hit `` It 's a Long Way to the Top '' . They sold over 1.3 million CDs in the US during 2007 despite not having released a new album since 2000 at that point . Additionally , the group 's commercial success continues to flourish despite their choice to refrain from selling albums in digital online formats for many years . However , in November 2012 , the entire catalogue ( excluding the TNT album and the Australian versions of the High Voltage , Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap and Let There Be Rock albums ) became available on the iTunes Store . In 2009 , the Recording Industry Association of America upgraded the group 's US sales figures from 69 million to 71 million , making AC / DC the fifth - best - selling band in US history and the tenth - best - selling artist , selling more albums than Madonna and Mariah Carey . The RIAA also certified Back in Black as double Diamond ( 20 million ) in US sales , and by 2007 the album had sold 22 million copies , which made it the fifth - best - selling album of all - time in the US .

what is the pdca model of continuous improvement
PDCA - wikipedia PDCA For other uses , see PDCA ( disambiguation ) . PDCA ( plan -- do -- check -- act or plan -- do -- check -- adjust ) is an iterative four - step management method used in business for the control and continual improvement of processes and products . It is also known as the Deming circle / cycle / wheel , the Shewhart cycle , the control circle / cycle , or plan -- do -- study -- act ( PDSA ) . Another version of this PDCA cycle is OPDCA . The added `` O '' stands for observation or as some versions say : `` Observe the current condition . '' This emphasis on observation and current condition has currency with the literature on lean manufacturing and the Toyota Production System . The PDCA cycle , with Ishikawa 's changes , can be traced back to S. Mizuno of the Tokyo Institute of Technology in 1959 . Contents 1 Meaning 1.1 Plan 1.2 Do 1.3 Check 1.4 Act 1.5 Adjust 2 About 3 See also 4 References 5 Further reading Meaning ( edit ) This section contains instructions , advice , or how - to content .

( October 2017 ) The PDCA cycle Continuous quality improvement with PDCA Plan ( edit ) The planning phase involves assessing a current process , or a new process , and figuring out how it can be improved upon . Knowing what types of outputs are desired helps to develop a plan to fix the process . It is often easier to plan smaller changes during this phase of the plan so that they can be easily monitored and the outputs are more predictable . Do ( edit ) The do phase allows the plan from the previous step to be enacted . Small changes are usually tested , and data is gathered to see how effective the change is . Check ( edit ) During the check phase , the data and results gathered from the do phase are evaluated . Data is compared to the expected outcomes to see any similarities and differences . The testing process is also evaluated to see if there were any changes from the original test created during the planning phase . If the data is placed in a chart it can make it easier to see any trends if the PDCA cycle is conducted multiple times . This helps to see what changes work better than others , and if said changes can be improved as well . Example : Gap analysis , or Appraisals Act ( edit ) If the check phase shows that the plan phase which was implemented in do phase is an improvement to the prior standard ( baseline ) , then that becomes the new standard ( baseline ) for how the organization should act going forward ( new standards are thus said to be enACTed ) . Instead , if the check phase shows that the plan phase which was implemented in do phase is not an improvement , then the existing standard ( baseline ) will remain in place . In either case , if the check phase showed something different than expected ( whether better or worse ) , then there is some more learning to be done ... and that will suggest potential future PDCA cycles . Note that some who teach PDCA assert that the act phase involves making adjustments or corrective actions , but generally it would be counter to PDCA thinking to propose and decide upon alternative changes without using a proper plan phase , or to make them the new standard ( baseline ) without going through do and check steps . Adjust ( edit ) The adjust phase is the alternative version of the act phase . Once PDCA has been run multiple times , the process generally has enough information for it to be considered a new standard . This is usually completed in the act phase . The adjust phase allows the process to continue to be monitored after the changes have been implemented and fix them accordingly . Doing this lets the PDCA cycle truly be for continuous improvement instead of changing a process and letting it become inefficient again . About ( edit ) PDCA was made popular by W. Edwards Deming , who is considered by many to be the father of modern quality control ; however , he always referred to it as the `` Shewhart cycle '' . Later in Deming 's career , he modified PDCA to `` Plan , Do , Study , Act '' ( PDSA ) because he felt that `` check '' emphasized inspection over analysis . The PDSA cycle was used to create the model of know - how transfer process , and other models . The concept of PDCA is based on the scientific method , as developed from the work of Francis Bacon ( Novum Organum , 1620 ) . The scientific method can be written as `` hypothesis -- experiment -- evaluation '' or as `` plan -- do -- check '' . Walter A. Shewhart described manufacture under `` control '' -- under statistical control -- as a three - step process of specification , production , and inspection . He also specifically related this to the scientific method of hypothesis , experiment , and evaluation . Shewhart says that the statistician `` must help to change the demand ( for goods ) by showing ( ... ) how to close up the tolerance range and to improve the quality of goods . '' Clearly , Shewhart intended the analyst to take action based on the conclusions of the evaluation . According to Deming , during his lectures in Japan in the early 1950s , the Japanese participants shortened the steps to the now traditional plan , do , check , act . Deming preferred plan , do , study , act because `` study '' has connotations in English closer to Shewhart 's intent than `` check '' . Multiple iterations of the PDCA cycle are repeated until the problem is solved . A fundamental principle of the scientific method and PDCA is iteration -- once a hypothesis is confirmed ( or negated ) , executing the cycle again will extend the knowledge further . Repeating the PDCA cycle can bring its users closer to the goal , usually a perfect operation and output . Another fundamental function of PDCA is the `` hygienic '' separation of each phase , for if not properly separated measurements of effects due to various simultaneous actions ( causes ) risk becoming confounded . PDCA ( and other forms of scientific problem solving ) is also known as a system for developing critical thinking . At Toyota this is also known as `` Building people before building cars '' . Toyota and other lean manufacturing companies propose that an engaged , problem - solving workforce using PDCA in a culture of critical thinking is better able to innovate and stay ahead of the competition through rigorous problem solving and the subsequent innovations . Deming continually emphasized iterating towards an improved system , hence PDCA should be repeatedly implemented in spirals of increasing knowledge of the system that converge on the ultimate goal , each cycle closer than the previous . One can envision an open coil spring , with each loop being one cycle of the scientific method , and each complete cycle indicating an increase in our knowledge of the system under study . This approach is based on the belief that our knowledge and skills are limited , but improving . Especially at the start of a project , key information may not be known ; the PDCA -- scientific method -- provides feedback to justify guesses ( hypotheses ) and increase knowledge . Rather than enter `` analysis paralysis '' to get it perfect the first time , it is better to be approximately right than exactly wrong . With improved knowledge , one may choose to refine or alter the goal ( ideal state ) . The aim of the PDCA cycle is to bring its users closer to whatever goal they choose . When PDCA is used for complex projects or products with a certain controversy , checking with external stakeholders should happen before the Do stage , since changes to projects and products that are already in detailed design can be costly ; this is also seen as Plan - Check - Do - Act . Rate of change , that is , rate of improvement , is a key competitive factor in today 's world . PDCA allows for major `` jumps '' in performance ( `` breakthroughs '' often desired in a Western approach ) , as well as kaizen ( frequent small improvements ) . In the United States a PDCA approach is usually associated with a sizable project involving numerous people 's time , and thus managers want to see large `` breakthrough '' improvements to justify the effort expended . However , the scientific method and PDCA apply to all sorts of projects and improvement activities .

what is the win key on windows 10
Windows key - wikipedia Windows key For the Windows product key , see Microsoft Product Activation . For the same keyboard key in macOS , see Command key . The current Windows key ( center ) shipping with Windows 8 , Windows 8.1 , and Windows 10 . The previous Windows key ( center ) with an orb surrounding the Windows logo used for Windows XP , Windows Vista and Windows 7 . The first Windows key ( center ) appeared prior to Windows ME . The Windows logo key ( also known as Windows key , Winkey , start key , logo key , flag key , super key , command key or flag ) is a keyboard key which was originally introduced on the Microsoft Natural keyboard in 1994 . This key became a standard key on PC keyboards . Tapping this key invokes the operating system 's start menu , if it has one . In Windows , Ctrl + Esc performs the same function , in case the keyboard lacks this key . Historically , the addition of two Windows keys and a menu key marked the change from the 101 / 102 - key to 104 / 105 - key layout for PC keyboards : compared to the former layout , a Windows key was placed between the left Ctrl and the left Alt ; another Windows key and -- immediately to its right -- a menu key were placed between the AltGr ( or right Alt key on keyboards that lack AltGr ) and the right Right Ctrl key . In laptop and other compact keyboards it is common to have just one Windows key ( usually on the left ) . Also , on Microsoft 's Entertainment Desktop sets ( designed for Windows Vista ) , the Windows key is in the middle of the keyboard , below all other keys ( where the user 's thumbs rest ) . On Windows 8 tablet computers , hardware certification requirements initially mandated that the Windows key be centered on the bezel below the screen , except on a convertible laptop , where the button is allowed to be off - center in a tablet configuration . This requirement was relaxed in Windows 8.1 , allowing the Windows key to be placed on any bezel or edge of the unit , though a centered location along the bottom bezel is still preferred . Contents 1 Licensing 2 Use with Microsoft Windows 2.1 Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0 2.2 Windows 2000 2.3 Windows XP 2.4 Windows XP Media Center Edition 2.5 Windows Vista 2.6 Windows 7 2.7 Windows 8 2.8 Windows 8.1 2.9 Windows 10 2.10 Microsoft Office 3 Use with non-Microsoft operating systems 4 References 5 External links Licensing ( edit ) Microsoft regulates the appearance of the Windows key logo picture with a specially crafted license for keyboard manufacturers ( `` Microsoft Windows Logo Key Logo License Agreement for Keyboard Manufacturers '' ) . With the introduction of a new Microsoft Windows logo , first used with Windows XP , the agreement was updated to require that the new design be adopted for all keyboards manufactured after 1 September 2003 . However , with the release of Windows Vista , Microsoft published guidelines for a new Windows Logo key that incorporates the Windows logo recessed in a chamfered lowered circle with a contrast ratio of at least 3 : 1 with respect to background that the key is applied to . In Common Building Block Keyboard Specification , all CBB compliant keyboards were to comply with the Windows Vista Hardware Start Button specification beginning in 2007 - 06 - 01 . Use with Microsoft Windows ( edit ) On Windows 9x and Windows NT families of Windows operating system , tapping the Windows key by itself traditionally revealed Windows Taskbar ( if not visible ) and opened the Start menu . In Windows Server 2012 and Windows 8 , this key launches the Start menu but does n't show the taskbar . However , this feature was added back into Windows 10 . Pressing the key in combination with other keys allows invoking many common functions through the keyboard . Holding down Ctrl + Esc will not substitute for the Windows key in these combinations . Which Windows key combinations ( `` shortcuts '' ) are available and active in a given Windows session depends on many factors , such as accessibility options , the type of the session ( regular or Terminal Services ) , the Windows version , the presence of specific software such as IntelliType and Group Policy if applicable . Below is a list of notable shortcuts . Unless otherwise noted , they are valid in the next version of Windows . Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0 ( edit ) The following shortcuts are valid in Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0 . ⊞ Win opens the Start Menu ⊞ Win + D shows the desktop ( hiding even non-minimizable windows ) , or restores hidden windows when pressed a second time . ⊞ Win + E opens Windows Explorer with folder pane on left side of window . ⊞ Win + F opens Find files and folders . ⊞ Win + M minimizes all windows . ⊞ Win + ⇧ Shift + M restores windows that were minimized with ⊞ Win + M . ⊞ Win + R opens the Run dialog box . ⊞ Win + U runs Utility Manager . ⊞ Win + Pause or ⊞ Win + Break opens properties of My Computer . ⊞ Win + F1 opens Windows Help . ⊞ Win + Ctrl + F opens Find computers . ⊞ Win + Tab ↹ cycles through taskbar buttons . This key combination is reassigned in Windows Vista . Windows 2000 ( edit ) Windows 2000 adds the following : ⊞ Win + L locks the desktop . Windows XP ( edit ) Windows XP adds the following : ⊞ Win + B selects the first icon in the Notification Area . ⊞ Win + Ctrl + F opens Search for Computers . Requires Active Directory Domain Services . ⊞ Win + L locks the desktop and ( if Fast User Switching is enabled ) shows the user selection screen . Windows XP Media Center Edition ( edit ) Windows XP Media Center Edition adds the following : ⊞ Win + Alt + ↵ Enter starts Windows Media Center . Windows Vista ( edit ) Windows Vista adds the following shortcuts : ⊞ Win + Space bar brings the Windows Sidebar to the front . ⊞ Win + G selects next Windows Sidebar gadget item , bringing all gadgets to the foreground in process . Gadgets were discontinued in Windows 8 . ⊞ Win + X invokes Windows Mobility Center . Works only if portable computer features are installed . This key combination is reassigned in Windows 8 . ⊞ Win + Tab ↹ switches active app using Aero Flip 3D . Requires desktop composition , a feature of Windows Aero . Aero Flip 3D is discontinued in Windows 8 and this key is reassigned . ⊞ Win + Ctrl + Tab ↹ is same as above , but Aero Flip 3D remains even when this key combination is released . Arrow keys or mouse may be used to navigate between windows . ⊞ Win + 1 through ⊞ Win + 9 , ⊞ Win + 0 starts the corresponding Quick Launch Bar program . ⊞ Win + 0 runs the tenth item . Quick Launch is discontinued in Windows 7 , but later continued from Windows 8 onward . Windows 7 ( edit ) Windows 7 used the following shortcuts : ⊞ Win + Space bar activates Aero Peek . Reassigned in Windows 8 . ⊞ Win + P toggles between the devices that receive video card 's output . The default is computer monitor only . Other options are video projector only , both showing the same image and both showing a portion of a larger desktop . ⊞ Win + ↑ maximizes the active window . ⊞ Win + ↓ restores the default window size and state of the active window , if maximized . Otherwise , minimizes the active window . ⊞ Win + ← or → to align the window to the corresponding side of the screen , tiled vertically . ⊞ Win + ⇧ Shift + ← or → to move the window to the next or previous monitor , if multiple monitors are used . ⊞ Win + T to iterate through items on the taskbar from left to right . ⊞ Win + ⇧ Shift + T to iterate through items on the taskbar from right to left . ⊞ Win + + to zoom into the screen at the mouse cursor position using the Magnifier Utility . ⊞ Win + - to zoom out if the Magnifier Utility is running . ⊞ Win + Esc to exit zoom . ⊞ Win + 1 through ⊞ Win + 9 , ⊞ Win + 0 to either start or switch to the corresponding program pinned to taskbar . ⊞ Win + 0 runs the tenth item . Press multiple times to cycle through the application 's open windows . Press and release quickly to keep the taskbar 's preview open ( which allows you to cycle using arrow keys ) . ⊞ Win + Home minimizes / restores all windows other than the active window . ⊞ Win + D minimizes / restores all windows . ⊞ Win + L locks the computer screen .

For example , various Microsoft Office applications add shortcuts of their own : ⊞ Win + S to take a screenshot for OneNote ; conflicts with ⊞ Win + ⇧ Shift + S on Windows 8.1 . ⊞ Win + N to open a new side note in OneNote . ⊞ Win + ⇧ Shift + N to open OneNote . ⊞ Win + Y to open Skype for Business . This shortcut also places the cursor directly on the search bar . ( Disabled in Skype for Business 2016 ) Use with non-microsoft operating systems ( edit ) The Windows key can also be used on other operating systems . On Unix and Unix - like operating systems , the key is usually given the X keysym `` Super '' ( on earlier versions `` Meta '' was often used ) , and turns on the shift bit called MOD4 . A common action that is not shared with Windows is for the key to allow dragging a window around from any location without raising it . Otherwise it is often used much like Windows , with press + release popping up a primary menu ( GNOME Shell bringing up the Activities Overview , Cinnamon pops up its main system menu normally docked at lower - left of screen ) , and with combinations with letters performing actions such as run - command , often with the shortcuts and actions copied from Windows . In the Compiz window manager , the Super key causes the scroll wheel to zoom in or out of any part of the desktop . macOS uses the Windows key as a replacement for the ⌘ Command . This sometimes leads to placement issues for users used to Apple keyboards however , as Apple keyboards place the Command key where the Alt is on most keyboards ( next to the Space bar ) . If Windows is installed on an Apple desktops and laptops then in Windows the Command key will function as the Windows key . On Xbox 360 , pressing the Windows key performs the same action as the Guide button on Xbox 360 Controller or remote controls , opening the Xbox Guide . Holding down the Windows key and pressing M opens a pop up conversation window over gameplay , if an instant message conversation is in progress . On a PlayStation 3 console , pressing the Windows key performs the same action as the PS Button on the Sixaxis Controller , opening the XrossMediaBar .

an economic alliance of most german states in 1834
Zollverein - wikipedia Zollverein Jump to : navigation , search This article is about the historical German customs union . For the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site in Essen , see Zollverein Coal Mine Industrial Complex . German Zollverein , 1834 -- 1919 Blue : Prussia in 1834 Grey : Areas included until 1866 Yellow : Austrian possessions outside the Zollverein Red : Borders of the 1828 German Confederation The Zollverein ( ( ˈtsɔlfɛɐ̯ˌʔaɪn ) ) or German Customs Union was a coalition of German states formed to manage tariffs and economic policies within their territories . Organized by the 1833 Zollverein treaties , the Zollverein formally started on 1 January 1834 . However , its foundations had been in development from 1818 with the creation of a variety of custom unions among the German states . By 1866 , the Zollverein included most of the German states . The foundation of the Zollverein was the first instance in history in which independent states had consummated a full economic union without the simultaneous creation of a political federation or union . Prussia was the primary driver behind the creation of the customs union . Austria was excluded from the Zollverein because of its highly protected industry and also because Prince von Metternich was against the idea . By the founding of the North German Confederation in 1867 , the Zollverein covered states of approximately 425,000 square kilometres , and had produced economic agreements with several non-German states , including Sweden - Norway . After the founding of the German Empire in 1871 , the Empire assumed the control of the customs union . However , not all states within the Empire were part of the Zollverein until 1888 . Conversely , Luxembourg was independent and not a state in the German Reich , it remained in the Zollverein until 1919 .

( December 2012 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) See also : Holy Roman Empire and German mediatization Map of the south German states and province of Hohenzollern . At the turn of the 19th century , this group of territories was transformed into three larger powers : Baden , Württemberg and Bavaria . The splintering of territory and states over generations meant that by the 1790s in the German - speaking Holy Roman Empire in Central Europe , there were approximately 1800 customs barriers . Even within the Prussian state itself , there were , at the beginning of the 19th century , more than 67 local customs and tariffs , with as many customs borders . To travel from Königsberg in East Prussia to Cologne , for example , a shipment was inspected and taxed 18 times . Each customs inspection at each border slowed the shipment 's progress from source to destination , and each assessment on the shipment reduced profit and increased the price of goods , dramatically stifling trade . When France defeated the Second Coalition , made up of Russian , Austrian and German forces , and annexed territories up to the Rhine , there was a general consolidation of the myriad of tiny states in Germany in the Mediatization of 1803 . This was also called the Principal Conclusion of the Extraordinary Imperial Delegation ( or , in German , Hauptschluss der außerordentlichen Reichsdeputation , usually called the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss ) . This last piece of major legislation enacted by the Holy Roman Empire re-arranged the map of Central Europe , especially in the southwestern territories . The Reichshauptschluss resulted in the secularization of many ecclesiastical territories , and the so - called mediatization , i.e. the annexation to larger neighboring territories , of many of the formerly free imperial territories , including most of the imperial cities . Considerable portions of the Habsburg family territories in southwestern Central Europe were `` mediatized '' , or given as compensation , to the princes and dukes who had lost territories in the French expansion . Most of the imperial cities , imperial abbeys , and ecclesiastical states and cities were mediatized or secularized in 1803 . With the final dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire in 1806 , most of the remaining tiny principalities were annexed by larger neighbors . Historians have analyzed three Prussian goals in the development of the Zollverein : first , as a political tool to eliminate Austrian influence in Germany ; second , as a way to improve the economies ; and third , to strengthen Germany against potential French aggression while reducing the economic independence of smaller states . The Zollverein created a larger market for German - made farm and handicraft products and promoted commercial unification under fiscally sound economic parameters . While the Union sought to limit trade and commercial barriers between and among member states , it continued to uphold the protectionist barriers against outsiders . Initial efforts at a single - toll system ( edit ) During the Napoleonic Era , efforts in the Rhineland toward economic unity had mixed success . The Confederation of the Rhine , and the other satellite creations of Napoleonic France , sought to establish economic autarky in European trade . By 1806 , as Napoleon I sought to secure his hegemony in Europe , the Continental System offered a semblance of unified effort toward a widespread domestic market for European goods . However , the main purpose of the Continental System was military , not economic . Napoleon wanted a trade embargo against Britain , through which he hoped to wreck the British economy . The combination of war and isolation from Britain 's trading system destroyed markets for external raw materials and for manufactured goods , resulting in the near ruin of the Central European economy . Especially hard hit were the trading economies of the Lowlands and Rhineland states , which had relied heavily upon imports of raw materials from throughout the world , and on the export of finished products . The domestic markets in Central Europe were not large enough to sustain consumption of their own production . These problems were dramatically exacerbated by the numerous excise taxes and tolls which were the main source of state income . Reduction in trade meant the near bankruptcy of the smaller states . At the Congress of Vienna in 1814 and 1815 , diplomats -- principally those from the Great Powers -- confirmed the remapping of Europe , and broadly , the rest of the world , into spheres of influence . Central Europe , or German - speaking Europe , remained largely within the influence of the Austrian Habsburgs , balanced at the periphery by the Russian empire in the east , and the French in the west . Prussia was expected to play some role in these spheres of influence , but the ambiguities of the Austrian and Prussian relationship were unresolved . The German states retained autonomy ; however , the old imperial institution of the Reichstag was converted to the form of a Confederation Diet , to meet in Frankfurt . The Habsburg archdukes , now Emperors of Austria , were to serve as permanent presidents of this institution . Isolated voices , such as Joseph Görres and Freiherr vom Stein , called for the abolition of domestic tolls and the creation of a German tariff on imports . The mandate from the Vienna Congress , however , established the German Confederation , but did not deal with the economic circumstances , nor did it make any effort to achieve economic and trade standardization . Instead , the articles that established the Confederation suggested that trade and transportation questions be discussed at a later date . Problems with unifying the customs and toll agreements ( edit ) Prussia and the central and southwestern states of Hesse - Nassau and Hesse - Darmstadt , Württemberg , Baden , and Bavaria were leaders in the modernization of the toll system within the German states . In the Prussian case , the experience of the Confederation of the Rhine in removing customs barriers offered an example of how it could be done , and Hans , Count von Bülow , who until 1811 had been the Finance Minister in Westphalia , and who had accepted this position in 1813 in Prussia , modeled the Prussian customs statutes on those of the former states of the Confederation . The addition of territory to the existing Prussian state made elimination of customs barriers a powerful factor in Prussian politics . The significant differences between `` old '' Prussia and the newly acquired territories complicated the debate . The `` newer '' Prussian provinces in the Rhineland and Westphalia , with their developing manufacturing sectors , contended with the heavily agricultural territories of `` old '' Prussia . The dissimilarities in the two sides of Prussia confirmed regional perceptions for the need for their own political and administrative units , which became an important element of the customs debate . Within `` old '' Prussia itself , the customs statutes from 1818 reduced domestic customs barriers . After 1818 , goods coming into Prussia and leaving Prussia were charged a high tariff . Goods moved freely within the state itself . The Prussian toll was therefore very simple and efficient . Manufactured goods were heavily taxed , especially textiles , and the most important taxes were for food , necessities and luxury goods . Similarly , in the southwest German states , it became urgent to integrate the newly acquired territories into the states ' existing economic systems . The territorial growth of the southwestern middle - sized states , in particular the two Hessian principalities , but also the growth of Baden and Württemberg , had split the territorial continuity of Prussia ; the Prussian state was no longer linked entirely by territory , but rather was separated from many of its newer acquisitions by territories newly acquired by other states . These states often saw their own interests as conflicting generally and specifically with Prussian expansionism , and resented Prussian dominance and authority . Furthermore , these newly expanded states , usually referred as `` middle - sized states '' ( or , in German , Mittelstaaten ) , faced problems in integrating their newly acquired territories and populations into an existing political , economic and legal structure . These problems were exacerbated by European wide economic woes following the Napoleonic Wars . Unemployment and high prices , especially for foodstuffs , characterized an economy not yet converted back to peacetime needs . The problem in Britain was particularly severe and the British response created a ripple effect that worsened problems in the German states : In trying to manage the post-war economy , the British government was caught between the Malthusian understanding of the relationship of wages , prices , and population , and the Ricardian model . On the one hand , adherents to the Malthusian model believed it was dangerous for Britain to rely on imported corn , because lower prices would reduce wages , and landlords and farmers would lose purchasing power . On the other hand , adherents to the Ricardian model thought that Britain could use its capital and population to advantage in a system of free trade . The problems in Britain established precedent for problems in the German states ; the British limitation on grain imports , through the Corn Laws , blocked economic recovery in the German states , particularly in eastern Prussia , by limiting the amount of grain that could be imported into Britain . Not only did the Corn Laws keep the price of grain in Britain high , they undermined the viability of Junker producers in east Prussia , and limited their access to external markets . The commercial reform efforts sponsored by Bavaria in 1856 led to the General German Commercial Code in 1861 that was quickly approved by a majority of the confederation . It proved highly successful in reducing barriers and increasing trade . 1820s and 1830s ( edit ) Friedrich List , economist . ( 1839 oil painting by Caroline Hövemeyer at the Heimatmuseum Reutlingen . ) 1803s lithograph of Johann F. Cotta . Cotta played an important role in the development of the south German customs agreement and also negotiated the Prussian Hessian Customs agreements . The original agreements that set the foundation for Zollverein cemented economic ties between the various Prussian and Hohenzollern territories , and ensured economic contact between the non-contiguous holdings of the Hohenzollern family , which was also the ruling family of Prussia . It was formed to remove the various obstacles ( such as different weights and measures in German states ) to economic exchange and growth by the new commercial classes , creating a national unity in economic matter at a time when Germany was divided . Surmounting the domestic customs , and the individual states ' dependence on those customs as their primary source of income , proved to be a difficult problem . The myriad of customs barriers restricted trade and hampered the industrial development , but the rulers of the states were reluctant to forgo their income from the customs . The impasse was overcome through external forces . With the repeal of the Continental System , the German tradesmen stood in direct conflict with the English industry . A united German Trade and Tradesmens Union demanded protection from English exports . Their spokesman , the economist Friedrich List , feared that the German people would end up as `` drawers of water and hewers of wood for Britain '' . Similarly , Karl Friedrich Nebenius , later president of the Ducal Ministry in the Grand Duchy of Baden and the author of Baden 's 1819 proposed customs initiative with the German Confederation , offered a widely publicized description about the difficulties of surmounting such protections : The 830 toll barriers in Germany cripple domestic traffic and bring more or less the same results : how if every limb of the human body were bound together , so that blood could not flow from one limb to the other ? In order to trade from Hamburg to Austria , from Berlin to the Swiss Cantons , one must cut through the statutes of ten states , study ten tolls and toll barriers , ten times go through the toll barriers , and ten times pay the tolls . Who but the unfortunate has to negotiate such borders ? To live with such borders ? Where three or four states collide , there one must live his whole life under evil , senseless tolls and toll restrictions . That is no Fatherland ! In 1820 , Württemberg planned to start a customs union among the so - called Third Germany : the middle - sized German states , including itself , Baden , Bavaria , and the two Hessian states ( Hesse - Darmstadt and Hesse - Kassel ) . This customs union excluded both Austria and Prussia , primarily because the two major German powers were considered too overbearing . Plans foundered on the differing interests of the affected states . While the economic development in Baden proceeded relatively well , with its long borders and well entrenched infrastructure for trade , economic development in Bavaria lagged well behind it , and the Bavarian regime enacted a protective tariff on goods produced outside its border . The result was a short lived trade agreement between Baden and Hesse - Darmstadt . Nevertheless , a second agreement , reached in Stuttgart in 1825 , established rapport between Württemberg and Bavaria , with the foundation of the South German Customs Union . In opposition to the Prussian activities , Hanover , Saxony , Hesse , and other states ( Austria , France , Great Britain , and the Netherlands ) , developed their own economic agreements . While they promised one another not to join the Prussian union , they did develop trade agreements of their own . The Union remained unsuccessful , because it only sought to maintain the status quo , not to fix the problems created by toll barriers . In 1834 , Baden and Württemberg joined the Prussian union , which was renamed the German Customs Union . The Tax Union or Steuerverein was formed in 1834 as a customs union first of the Duchy of Brunswick and the Kingdom of Hanover , then with the Grand Duchy of Oldenburg in 1836 . By 1835 , the German Customs Union had expanded to include the majority of the states of the German Confederation , even Saxony , the Thuringian states , Württemberg and Baden , Bavaria , and the Hessian states . Functionally , it removed many internal customs barriers , while upholding a protectionist tariff system with foreign trade partners . The Zollverein and German unification . Timeline ( edit ) Date Event ( s ) 1815 Establishment of the German Confederation leaves the question of economic and customs authority to future negotiation . 1818 May 26 : Prussia establishes an internal customs union throughout its state and Hohenzollern territories in southwestern Germany . 1819 Baden proposes a customs union organized through the German Confederation . The proposal fails at the Frankfurt Diet . October 25 : Schwarzburg - Sondershausen joins the Prussian customs system . 1821 Duchy of Anhalt joins the Prussian customs system . 1826 Mecklenburg - Schwerin joins the Prussian Customs Union . 1828 January 18 : By treaty , Bavaria and Württemberg form the Bavaria -- Württemberg Customs Union ( BWCU ) . February 14 : By treaty , Prussia and the Grand Duchy of Hesse ( Hesse - Darmstadt ) form the Prussia -- Hesse - Darmstadt Customs Union ( PHCU ) . The states that previously joined the Prussian customs system are included . September 24 : By the Treaty of Kassel , the Central German Union ( CGU ) is formed by central and northern German states ( Saxony , Hanover , Hesse - Kassel , Saxe - Weimar , Saxe - Altenburg , Saxe - Coburg , Nassau , Schwarzburg - Rudolstadt , Frankfurt , Saxe - Meiningen , Brunswick , Schwarzburg - Sondershausen , Reuss - Greiz , Reuss - Gera , Bremen , Oldenburg , and Hesse - Homburg ) . 1829 May 27 : Commercial alliance between the BWCU and PHCU is formed . 1831 Hesse - Kassel and Saxony join the PHCU ; Königsberg ( an exclave of Saxe - Coburg and Gotha ) and Ostheim ( an exclave of Saxe - Weimar - Eisenach ) join the BWCU . 1833 Some of the states of the CGU form the Thuringian Customs and Commerce Union ( TCCU ) . 1833 March -- May : Zollverein treaties are negotiated and concluded ; the treaties act to merge BWCU , PHCU , and TCCU into a unified customs union . 1834 January 1 : Zollverein treaties enter into force ; the Zollervein comes formally into existence . A German census is introduced to facilitate revenue - sharing . 1835 Hesse - Homburg ( 20 February ) , Baden ( 12 May ) and Nassau ( 10 December ) join the Zollverein . 1836 January 2 : Frankfurt joins the Zollverein . 1838 July 30 : Dresden Coinage Convention is agreed to in order to standardise currency conversion within the Zollverein . 1840 -- 47 Potato blight throughout the southwestern states , Saxony and parts of Prussia . 1841 Brunswick joins the Zollverein . 1842 Luxembourg joins the Zollverein . 1848 -- 49 1848 Revolutions . Propositions are made for a political and economic union . The Kleindeutschland ( `` Lesser Germany '' ) solution for political unification is proposed . 1851 September 7 : Hanover joins the Zollverein . 1852 March 1 : Oldenburg joins in the Zollverein . 1857 January 24 : Vienna Monetary Treaty is concluded between the Zollverein states , Austria and Liechtenstein to standardise currencies . 1864 Prussia and Austria engage in a border war with Denmark over the autonomy of the duchies of Holstein and Schleswig . 1865 Sweden - Norway signs a free trade agreement with the Zollverein , linking the German members to the Scandinavian market . 1866 Austro - Prussian War , in which Austria loses its political and diplomatic influence in the German Confederation . 1867 The Zollverein is reconstituted . 1868 Schleswig - Holstein , Saxe - Lauenburg and Mecklenburg - Strelitz join the Zollverein . 1871 Following the Franco - Prussian War , Alsace - Lorraine joins the Zollverein . The German Empire is formed . 1888 The city - states of Hamburg and Bremen join the customs union , seventeen years after political unification . 1919 The German Empire is replaced by the Weimar Republic . Luxembourg leaves the Zollverein . The original customs union was not ended in 1866 with outbreak of the Austro - Prussian War , but a substantial reorganization emerged in 1867 . The new Zollverein was stronger , in that no individual state had a veto . When eventually Hamburg acceded to the Customs Union in 1888 it negotiated the exemption of an area of 4 square miles at the centre of its port , which remained outside of the Zollverein . Bremen ( which includes Bremerhaven ) had a similar agreement . Impact ( edit ) Economic impact ( edit ) According to one study , `` The Zollverein was the most important institutional development for Germany 's economic unification during the middle of the 19th century . It had a strong impact on regional development , changing regional fortunes by the opening and closing of markets . '' Role in the unification of Germany ( edit ) Main article : Unification of Germany According to some economic historians , such as Helmut Böhme and H. - U. Wehler , the Zollverein set the groundwork for the unification of Germany under Prussian guidance . This traditional view is disputed by historians such as Hans - Joachim Voth who contend that far from allowing Prussia to increase its political influence over the smaller states , the customs union may have had the contrary effect : many governments used the increased revenue brought by the customs union to try to consolidate their independence . The smaller states entered the customs union for purely fiscal reasons , and as the events of 1866 were to demonstrate , membership in the Zollverein did not in the least lead to any form of political commitment toward Berlin , as many states remained suspicious of Prussia and generally pro-Austrian . The impact of the Zollverein on German unification may have been more incidental . As it constituted the main feature of Berlin 's `` German policy '' for many years , Prussian ministers and other government officials became accustomed to think in terms of Germany as a whole and to look beyond specifically Prussian benefits when looking for a consensus across Germany . According to revisionist historians , the Zollverein may not even have been instrumental in bringing about Prussia 's economic preeminence in Germany . They argue that nothing seems to indicate that industrial investments increased decisively during the period in Prussia , or that the customs union played a significant role in reducing the dominance of agriculture in the kingdom 's economy .

It is set in the surgical wing of the fictional Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital , located in Seattle , Washington . After the explosion at Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital , Chief Miranda Bailey ( Chandra Wilson ) finds it the perfect time to give the place a much needed upgrade in look and functionality . During the construction , Owen Hunt ( Kevin McKidd ) struggles with the shocking reunion with his sister , Megan ( Abigail Spencer ) , who was recently found in a hostage camp overseas . The discovery also welcomes back Teddy Altman ( Kim Raver ) , the former chief cardiothoracic surgery and Owen 's best friend , which leads to awkward moments with Amelia Shepherd ( Caterina Scorsone ) . Of course , Nathan Riggs ( Martin Henderson ) , who was once in love with Megan , is torn between his love for her and his most recent interest in Meredith Grey ( Ellen Pompeo ) . Arizona Robbins ( Jessica Capshaw ) learns what `` ghosting '' is after Eliza Minnick ( Marika Dominczyk ) vanishes without a trace , but she quickly finds company in an Italian girl she met at the bar , Carina DeLuca ( Stefania Spampinato ) , sister to Andrew DeLuca ( Giacomo Gianniotti ) . Jo Wilson ( Camilla Luddington ) struggles to patch her relationship with Alex Karev ( Justin Chambers ) , but when her attempts fail , she finds herself sleeping with one of the new interns . When Carina finds that Amelia has a brain tumor , she brings her former mentor / professor Dr Tom Koracek ( Greg Germann ) to create a treatment plan . But when he points out how the tumor has affected her judgment , she fears that it might have ruined her patient 's lives or put them in more danger -- specifically Dr Nicole Herman ( Geena Davis ) , who despite saving her life , was left blind . After the tumor is removed , Amelia and Owen reflect on their marriage and decide that everything up to that point has been misguided ; the tumor made Amelia someone she was not , and they ultimately decide to get a divorce . With all the changes happening at Grey Sloan , Harper Avery ( Chelcie Ross ) shows up to discuss everything with Bailey and then ends up firing her . Shortly after , he immediately dies from cardiac arrest . Before they have to find another chief , Catherine ( Debbie Allen ) and Jackson Avery ( Jesse Williams ) reinstate Bailey to her position . At a family dinner hosted by Catherine and Richard Weber ( James Pickens Jr . ) , Maggie Pierce ( Kelly McCreary ) and Jackson learn that he 'll be receiving his grandfather 's inheritance , a quarter billion dollars , which he 'll eventually use to fund a medical research contest . Now that Megan is healthy again , Meredith and Nathan work together to bring her son over to the United States . Upon arrival , Nathan , Megan , and Farouk all move to California to start a life together , which officially ends Nathan 's relationship with Meredith . Despite the breakup , Meredith has more exciting news on the horizon when she learns at the intern mixer that a ground breaking surgery has earned her a nomination for the highly - esteemed Harper Avery Foundation Award , which she goes on to win . While the joyous news spreads around the hospital , Bailey learns that Ben Warren ( Jason George ) wants to leave surgery to join the Seattle Fire Department . With Jo and Alex now living together again , she realizes how much control her estranged husband , Dr Paul Stadler ( Matthew Morrison ) , has over her . Now in the running for chief resident , Jo decides to file for divorce . With her mind on her secret relationship with Paul , she 's surprised to find him in the hospital . Jo attempts to steer clear of him , but at the same time also believes she has a duty to inform Paul 's fiancé of what type of man he really is . As Paul keeps trying to find Jo , Meredith pretends to call security to have him removed , but he leaves before they can get there . However , he winds up back in the ER as a victim of a hit and run accident . With everyone running around the ER , April Kepner ( Sarah Drew ) sees a familiar face in Matthew ( Justin Bruening ) , the paramedic she left at the altar for Jackson . He 's there with his wife who is now pregnant . After Jo talks to Jenny ( Bethany Joy Lenz ) , Paul 's fiancé , they venture to Paul 's room to tell him they 're taking him to court . Upon receiving the news , he tries to attack them in a bout of rage ; however , he falls out of bed and hits his head knocking him unconscious , rendering him brain dead . Still legally his wife , Jo decides to have them remove all life - sustaining support . April struggles with the idea that the man she left to pursue her own happiness is now married and expecting a child , while she 's alone and a single mother . As she begins to question her faith , she acts out and sleeps with an intern . With all the stress and work that comes with being Chief of Surgery , Bailey begins to show signs of a heart attack . She winds up at Seattle Presbyterian Hospital , where the doctors take her concerns less than seriously . They see in her chart a history of OCD and believe that is the underlying issue , since the tests they are running are coming back negative . Bailey calls on Maggie to save her , and after she does , Bailey decides to support Ben 's decision to become a firefighter , as she realizes life is too short to do anything than what makes you happy . With the medical research contest , funded by Jackson 's money , getting underway , the doctors begin to team up and brainstorm ideas that will help them win the top prize of a grant that will fund their research even further . Meredith learns that for her project , she 'll need to acquire a patent that is owned by Marie Cerone ... a former friend of her mother 's . When Marie denies access to the patent , Meredith is forced to investigate further into the reason why . According to Richard , there was a falling out of some sort , but he never knew what happened between the two women . At a dinner party hosted by Amelia , Maggie brings her new boyfriend around to meet her friends . However , it 's soon revealed that her boyfriend is a married man . Quick to call it off , Jackson sees his opportunity to invest in his love interest with Maggie . In Meredith 's search for answers , she learns that Ellis Grey left Marie 's name off the surgical method they created together . If she is to acquire the patent , she must publicly announce a change the method 's name to the Grey - Cerone Method . Meredith denies the ultimatum . While Maggie and Jackson try to get past the quirks of their relationship and the fact that their step - siblings , Jo shockingly asks Alex to marry him . He quickly accepts . With the research projects humming along , Owen and Amelia continue to take advantage of their `` friends with benefits '' relationship , that is until Amelia learns how close Owen is with Teddy . She advises him to go after her if she 's the love of his life . The advice sends him to Germany where he surprises Teddy . The two talk all night and make plans to stay together , but when she learns that Amelia had just told him the night before to pursue her , she refuses to be his backup plan and kicks him out . Bailey is surprised to learn that one of her interns , Sam Bello ( Jeanine Mason ) , is a `` Dreamer '' protected by ( DACA ) . Meredith designs a plan to keep from being deported . Despite pleas from Andrew ( Sam 's boyfriend ) , Meredith sends to work under Dr Cristina Yang in Switzerland . While the research contest reaches the next milestone , presentation day , Catherine confronts Jackson about a major secret concerning his grandfather . The man had 13 cases of sexual harassment filed against him , and she herself paid the women major settlements to keep it all covered up . Meredith learns of this truth and also that Marie Cerone was one of the 13 . Disgusted with the whole situation , Meredith decides to return her and her mother 's Harper Avery awards and Bailey shuts down the research contest . In the meantime , Catherine tries with all her might to save the face of the foundation since the news has spread . While in surgery , Jackson and Meredith come up with their own plan , which is to rename the foundation in honor of Catherine ( née Fox ) to the Catherine Fox Foundation . When Alex learns that his mom has n't been cashing the checks he 's been sending , he and Jo take off to Iowa to check on her . He surprisingly finds that she is doing well and even works her old job at the library . The two extend an invitation to the wedding , but she declines stating it would be too much for her . While Owen and Amelia struggle with adjusting to being foster parents -- Owen to a baby and Amelia to the baby 's teenaged mother on drugs , Arizona continues to battle with Sofia who wants to move back to New York to be with her other mom , Callie . After calling Callie to tell her they 're moving to the east coast to be closer to her , Arizona announced her impeding departure to Bailey . However , an unexpected visit from Nicole Herman changes those plans just slightly . Nicole has been following Arizona 's work and she would like to partner with her in creating the Robbins - Herman Center for Women 's Health . Knowing that she 's headed to New York , Arizona asks that it be there , and Nicole obliges . Matthew winds up in the ER again , but this time for himself , after he rolled his car . Trying to get information from him about what happened , he mentions April 's name , which sends the doctors into a frenzy trying to make sure she 's safe . Owen finds her unconscious at the site of the accident , down in a ravine nearby . After he rushes her back to the hospital , the team rallies to save her , and after extreme measures have been taken to bring her back to life , she wakes up , fully functional . Alex and Jo 's wedding day has arrived , and though most details have come together , April ( who has been planning the wedding ) panics when multiple guests go to the wrong ceremony . While trying to escape , the mother of the bride faints , keeping Ben and Bailey behind . Once at the hospital , Bailey struggles to find an available cardio surgeon until Teddy unexpectedly arrives looking for a job . Jo learns she 's been accepted into Mass Gen 's fellowship program , but fearful of losing Alex , Meredith offers Jo the general surgery attending position .

an important example of an electron acceptor molecule that functions in glycolysis is
Electron acceptor - wikipedia Electron acceptor Jump to : navigation , search An electron acceptor is a chemical entity that accepts electrons transferred to it from another compound . It is an oxidizing agent that , by virtue of its accepting electrons , is itself reduced in the process . Electron acceptors are sometimes mistakenly called electron receptors . Typical oxidizing agents undergo permanent chemical alteration through covalent or ionic reaction chemistry , resulting in the complete and irreversible transfer of one or more electrons . In many chemical circumstances , however , the transfer of electronic charge from an electron donor may be only fractional , meaning an electron is not completely transferred , but results in an electron resonance between the donor and acceptor . This leads to the formation of charge transfer complexes in which the components largely retain their chemical identities . The electron accepting power of an acceptor molecule is measured by its electron affinity which is the energy released when filling the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital ( LUMO ) . The energy required to remove one electron from the electron donor is its ionization energy ( I ) . The energy liberated by attachment of an electron to the electron acceptor is the negative of its electron affinity ( A ) . The overall system energy change ( ΔE ) for the charge transfer is then Δ E = I − A ( \ displaystyle ( \ Delta ) E = I-A \ , ) . For an exothermic reaction , the energy liberated is of interest and is equal to − Δ E = A − I ( \ displaystyle - ( \ Delta ) E = A-I \ , ) . In chemistry , a class of electron acceptors that acquire not just one , but a set of two paired electrons that form a covalent bond with an electron donor molecule , is known as a Lewis acid . This phenomenon gives rise to the wide field of Lewis acid - base chemistry . The driving forces for electron donor and acceptor behavior in chemistry is based on the concepts of electropositivity ( for donors ) and electronegativity ( for acceptors ) of atomic or molecular entities . Contents ( hide ) 1 Examples 2 See also 3 References 4 External links Examples ( edit ) Examples of electron acceptors include oxygen , nitrate , iron ( III ) , manganese ( IV ) , sulfate , carbon dioxide , or in some microorganisms the chlorinated solvents such as tetrachloroethylene ( PCE ) , trichloroethylene ( TCE ) , dichloroethene ( DCE ) , and vinyl chloride ( VC ) . These reactions are of interest not only because they allow organisms to obtain energy , but also because they are involved in the natural biodegradation of organic contaminants . When clean - up professionals use monitored natural attenuation to clean up contaminated sites , biodegradation is one of the major contributing processes . In biology , a terminal electron acceptor is a compound that receives or accepts an electron during cellular respiration or photosynthesis . All organisms obtain energy by transferring electrons from an electron donor to an electron acceptor . During this process ( electron transport chain ) the electron acceptor is reduced and the electron donor is oxidized .

The Fun They had - Wikipedia The Fun They had <Th_colspan="2"> `` The Fun They Had '' Author Isaac Asimov Country United States Language English Genre ( s ) Science fiction Published in Boys and Girls Page Publication type Periodical Media type Print ( Newspaper , Magazine , Hardback & Paperback ) Publication date 1 December 1951 `` The Fun They Had '' is a science fiction story by American writer Isaac Asimov . It first appeared in a children 's newspaper in 1951 and was reprinted in the February 1954 issue of The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction , as well as the collections Earth Is Room Enough ( 1957 ) , 50 Short Science Fiction Tales ( 1960 ) , and The Best of Isaac Asimov ( 1973 ) . It has been modified in a Finnish English book called KEY English 8 - 9 . Written as a personal favor for a friend , `` The Fun They Had '' became `` probably the biggest surprise of my literary career '' , Asimov wrote in 1973 . He reported that it had been reprinted more than 30 times with more being planned . `` Why ? I do n't know why . '' It is about computerized home schooling , and what children miss out on by not being in school together . Plot summary ( edit ) Set in the year 2155 , when children learn individually at home using a mechanical teacher , the story tells of eleven - year - old Margie Jones , whose neighbor Tommy finds a real book . The book tells about a time when children learned by age group in large schools that were not merely designated rooms in private houses as in the year 2155 . Margie and Tommy discuss what it must have been like to study together with a real person as a teacher , and though at first Margie is skeptical about the notion , by the end of the story she daydreams about what it must have been like and ' the fun they had ' .

The battle took place on 10 July 1645 near the small town of Langport , which lies south of Bristol . Contents ( hide ) 1 Campaign 2 Battle 3 Results 4 Notes 5 References 6 External links Campaign ( edit ) Taunton had been captured by the Parliamentarian army under the Earl of Essex in June 1644 . After Essex 's army was forced to surrender at Lostwithiel in Cornwall in September , the Royalists maintained a siege of Taunton , although the town was briefly relieved by Sir William Waller in late November . When determining strategy for 1645 , King Charles I had despatched George , Lord Goring , the Lieutenant General of Horse ( cavalry ) , to the West Country with orders to retake Taunton and other Parliamentarian outposts in the area . Although Goring briefly rejoined the King 's main ' Oxford Army ' , tensions between him and Prince Rupert , the King 's Captain General and chief adviser , resulted in Goring 's force returning to the west . Parliament had meanwhile sent a substantial detachment commanded by Colonel Ralph Weldon , consisting of one cavalry regiment and four infantry regiments from their New Model Army , to relieve Taunton . They raised the siege on 11 May 1645 , but were themselves besieged by Goring 's returning army ( although there was no longer any danger of the Royalists storming the town ) . On 14 June 1645 , the main body of the New Model Army under Sir Thomas Fairfax , with Oliver Cromwell as Lieutenant General of Horse , won the decisive Battle of Naseby , destroying Charles 's main army . After the Royalist garrison of Leicester surrendered four days later , the New Model Army was free to march to the relief of Taunton . The army marched first south and then west , keeping near the coast so as to keep touch with Parliament 's navy . On 4 July it reached Beaminster , where Fairfax learned that Goring had raised the siege and was retreating towards the Royalist stronghold at Bridgwater . To cover the retreat of the baggage , Goring 's army was spread over a front of 12 miles ( 19 km ) along the north bank of the River Yeo , from Langport to Yeovil . The Royalists were outnumbered by Fairfax 's army , and their discipline was poor , mainly because a succession of lax Royalist commanders had allowed their men too much license to pillage ( which also alienated many of the local people ) . Fairfax was joined by Weldon 's detachment from Taunton and advanced north towards Goring 's army . On 8 July , the Parliamentarians captured Yeovil at the western end of the Royalists ' line . The Royalists abandoned the line of the river , and Fairfax crossed to the north side of the River Yeo . He sent another Parliamentarian force ( part of the army of the `` Western Association '' under Major General Edward Massie ) to deal with an attempted diversion in the direction of Taunton by some of Goring 's cavalry under George Porter , a notoriously unreliable officer . Porter 's men failed to post proper sentries and outposts , and were taken by surprise by Massie and destroyed at Isle Abbots in the early hours of 9 July . Fairfax had meanwhile advanced in pursuit of Goring , and encountered Goring 's main position at Langport late on 9 July . Battle ( edit ) The battle of Langport took place the next day . Goring had occupied a strong rearguard position to cover the withdrawal of his slow - moving artillery and baggage . His main force held a ridge running north to south , a mile east of Langport . In front of the ridge was a marshy valley occupied by a stream named the Wagg Rhyne . Only a single narrow lane lined with trees and hedges ran across the stream via a ford , and up to the top of the ridge . Goring placed two light guns in position to fire down the lane , and disposed two raw regiments ( those of colonels Wise and Slaughter ) of Welsh foot soldiers in the hedges . Three bodies of horse ( Goring 's life guard , and Goring 's and Sir Arthur Slingsby 's regiments ) waited at the top of the ridge . Goring hoped that Fairfax would be forced to make time - consuming outflanking moves . Fairfax was prepared to rely on the superior morale of his cavalry to overcome Goring 's position . While his artillery silenced Goring 's two light guns , he sent 1500 `` commanded '' ( detached ) musketeers under Colonel Thomas Rainsborough through the marshes to clear the Welsh infantry from the hedges . He then ordered two ' divisions ' ( half regiments ) of horse to charge up the lane . These two divisions were from regiments ( Fairfax 's and Whalley 's ) which had originally been part of Cromwell 's double regiment of ironsides before being merged into the New Model Army . The first division under Major Christopher Bethel galloped up the lane four abreast , deployed into a line and charged and broke two of the Royalist cavalry regiments . A third Royalist regiment counter-attacked but the second division of Parliamentarian horse under Major John Desborough charged and routed them . As more Parliamentarian reinforcements streamed up the lane , Goring 's men broke and fled the field . Cromwell halted his well - disciplined cavalry at the top of the ridge until his forces had reformed . Then they moved rapidly in pursuit . Goring had set fire to Langport to delay the pursuers and tried to rally his army two miles further on , but his army dissolved as Cromwell 's troopers approached , abandoning their baggage and most of their weapons . Many of the fugitives were attacked by local clubmen who had banded together to resist exactions by the armies of both sides in the civil war . Results ( edit ) Goring 's army had been the last effective field army available to the Royalists , whatever its quality . Its loss was a major blow to Royalist morale . On 11 July , Fairfax met representatives from the local clubmen at Middlezoy . He promised that his army would pay for all supplies they took and leave the clubmen in peace provided that they did not assist the Royalists . Goring left an infantry garrison in Bridgwater and withdrew with his cavalry to Barnstaple , in Devon . He himself was depressed and possibly drinking heavily . Although Bridgwater was a strong position , Fairfax nevertheless stormed the eastern part of the town on 21 July . After a heavy artillery bombardment , Sir Hugh Wyndham surrendered the remaining western part of the town on 23 July . Fairfax next besieged Sherborne , which was defended by Sir Lewis Dyve . Dyve surrendered on 17 August after artillery and mines breached the castle walls . The New Model Army then stormed the city of Bristol on 10 September , depriving the Royalists of their major manufacturing centre . Charles had appointed Prince Rupert as governor , but he considered that Rupert had surrendered prematurely , and the two became increasingly estranged . These Parliamentarian successes isolated the remaining Royalists in the West Country from Charles 's forces in Wales , Oxford and the Midlands . The Royalists were no longer able to raise effective field forces and first civil war ended less than a year later , after the Parliamentarians captured most of the isolated Royalist garrisons .

It originally aired on Nickelodeon in the United States on May 1 , 1999 , following the television airing of the 1999 Kids ' Choice Awards . The episode follows the protagonist , an anthropomorphic young sea sponge named SpongeBob SquarePants , attempting to get a job at a local restaurant called the Krusty Krab . However , he is tasked to find a seemingly non-existent high - caliber spatula because the owner , Mr. Krabs , considers him unqualified for the position . Eventually , crowds of ravenous anchovies stop by the Krusty Krab and demand meals . SpongeBob returns from his errand , having fulfilled the request of Mr. Krabs and found a mechanical spatula . He utilizes the spatula to fulfill the anchovies ' hunger . SpongeBob is then welcomed by Mr. Krabs as a Krusty Krab employee against Squidward 's , the cashier of the Krusty Krab , wishes . Series creator Stephen Hillenburg initially conceived the show in 1994 and began to work on it shortly after the cancellation of Rocko 's Modern Life in 1996 . To voice the character of SpongeBob , Hillenburg approached Tom Kenny , who had worked with him on Rocko 's Modern Life . For the series pitch , Hillenburg originally wanted the idea of having SpongeBob and Squidward on a road trip , inspired by the 1989 film Powwow Highway . Hillenburg gave up the idea , and started new with the idea he and Derek Drymon came up for `` Help Wanted '' based on an experience Hillenburg had in the Boy Scouts . The original idea would be used for the later episode `` Pizza Delivery '' . The episode was written by Hillenburg who also functioned as storyboard director , Derek Drymon , who also functioned as storyboard artist , and Tim Hill . The animation was directed by the show 's supervising director , Alan Smart . `` Help Wanted '' features a posthumous musical performance from Tiny Tim singing his song `` Livin ' in the Sunlight , Lovin ' in the Moonlight '' . `` Help Wanted '' was excluded in the series ' first season DVD release because Nickelodeon did not want to pay Tiny Tim 's estate for the DVD rights . It had since been released as a bonus feature to various series DVDs . `` Help Wanted '' gained an average of 6.9 million views , receiving positive reviews from media critics .

The episode opens with an introductory glimpse of the aquatic town of Bikini Bottom . The audience is then introduced to SpongeBob SquarePants , an ecstatic , hyperactive , anxious and friendly young sea sponge preparing to fulfill a lifelong dream and passion by applying for a fry cook job at the underwater fast food restaurant , the Krusty Krab , to the annoyance of the restaurant 's cashier and SpongeBob 's irritable neighbor , Squidward Tentacles . SpongeBob then gets nervous and almost reconsiders applying for a job at the restaurant until his best friend , a starfish named Patrick Star , convinces him otherwise . Humored with SpongeBob 's vulnerability , gullibility , and impenetrable enthusiasm and innocence , both Squidward and the restaurant 's proprietor , Mr. Eugene Krabs , decide to manipulate SpongeBob , whom they secretly consider unqualified for the position , by sending him on an impossible errand to purchase a seemingly non-existent high - caliber spatula . Soon after his anxious departure , five buses containing crowds of ravenous tourist anchovies stop at the Krusty Krab , its abundance of passengers furiously demanding meals . Unable to satisfy the anchovies ' hunger and alarmed by the mob , Squidward and Mr. Krabs are left to helplessly deal with the unsatisfied crowd . Before long , SpongeBob returns from his errand , having fulfilled the request of Mr. Krabs and found a mechanical spatula , which he uses in speedily whipping up bundles of Krabby Patties for the anchovies and satisfying their hunger . After the mob subsides , SpongeBob is welcomed as a Krusty Krab employee , much to Squidward 's dismay . After Mr. Krabs leaves , Patrick orders a Krabby Patty and is hurled from the establishment upon a mostly - unseen , and audibly manic , reprise of SpongeBob 's cooking feat . Production ( edit ) Development ( edit ) An original storyboard for a scene from `` Help Wanted '' when the crew was going by the early working name SpongeBoy Ahoy ! . `` Help Wanted '' was written by series creator Stephen Hillenburg , Derek Drymon , and Tim Hill , and the animation was directed by the show 's supervising director , Alan Smart . Hillenburg also functioned as storyboard director , and Drymon worked as storyboard artist . Hillenburg initially conceived the show in 1994 and began to work on it shortly after the cancellation of Rocko 's Modern Life in 1996 . Hillenburg 's original idea for the pitch was that the writers would write a storyboard for a possible episode and pitch it to Nickelodeon . One of the original ideas was to write an episode with SpongeBob and Squidward on a road trip , inspired by the 1989 film Powwow Highway . Eventually , the idea developed while they were working on it but Hillenburg gave up on the storyboard idea for the initial pitch . The crew resurrected the road trip idea during the first season and used a lot of the ideas for an episode called `` Pizza Delivery '' . Originally the character was to be named SpongeBoy and the show was to be called SpongeBoy Ahoy ! . However , the Nickelodeon legal department discovered that the name SpongeBoy was already in use for a mop product . This was discovered after voice acting for the original seven - minute pilot was recorded in 1997 . Upon finding this out , Hillenburg decided that the character 's given name still had to contain `` Sponge '' so viewers would not mistake the character for a `` Cheese Man . '' Hillenburg decided to use the name `` SpongeBob . '' He chose `` SquarePants '' as a family name as it referred to the character 's square shape and it had a `` nice ring to it '' . `` The execs from Nickelodeon flew out to Burbank , and we pitched it to them from the storyboards . We had squeezy toys , wore Hawaiian shirts and used a boom box to play the Tiny Tim song ( ' Livin ' in the Sunlight , Lovin ' in the Moonlight ' ) that comes on in the third act . We really went all out in that pitch because we knew the pilot lived or died by if the execs laughed . When it was over they walked out of the room to discuss it ; we figured they would fly back to New York and we 'd hear in a few weeks . We were surprised when they came back in what seemed like minutes and said they wanted to make it . '' -- Derek Drymon Hillenburg and Derek Drymon had dinner and came up with the idea for `` Help Wanted '' based on an experience Hillenburg had in the Boy Scouts . Hillenburg and writer Hill worked it into an outline . In 1997 , while pitching the cartoon to Nickelodeon executives , Hillenburg donned a Hawaiian shirt , brought along an `` underwater terrarium with models of the characters , '' and Hawaiian music to set the theme . The setup was described by Nickelodeon executive Eric Coleman as `` pretty amazing '' . When given money and two weeks to write the pilot episode , Drymon , Hillenberg and Jennings returned with what Nickelodeon official Albie Hecht described as `` a performance ( I ) wish ( I ) had on tape '' . Although described as stressful by creative director Derek Drymon , the pitch went `` very well '' ; Kevin Kay and Hecht had to step outside because they were `` exhausted from laughing , '' making the cartoonists worried . With a help from Hill and art director Nick Jennings , Hillenburg finished the pitch and sold SpongeBob SquarePants to Nickelodeon . Drymon said `` the network approved it -- so we were ready to go . '' In an interview with Cyma Zarghami , she told `` their ( Nickelodeon executives ' ) immediate reaction was to see it again , both because they liked it and it was unlike anything they 'd ever seen before . '' Hillenburg said the character construction in the episode was loose . But the character development was already `` pretty strong . '' Design ( edit ) When the crew began production on the episode , they were tasked to design the stock locations where `` the show would return to again and again , and in which most of the action would take place , such as the Krusty Krab and SpongeBob 's pineapple house . '' Hillenburg had a `` clear vision '' of what he wanted the show to look like . The idea was `` to keep everything nautical '' so the crew used ropes , wooden planks , ships ' wheels , netting , anchors , and boilerplate and rivets . The pilot and the rest of the series features the `` sky flowers '' as the main background . When series background designer Kenny Pittenger was asked `` What are those things ? , '' he answered `` They function as clouds in a way , but since the show takes place underwater , they are n't really clouds . '' Since the show was influenced by tiki , the background painters have to use a lot of pattern . Pittenger said `` So really , the sky flowers are mostly a whimsical design element that Steve ( Hillenburg ) came up with to evoke the look of a flower - print Hawaiian shirt -- or something like that . I do n't know what they are either . '' Casting ( edit ) Tom Kenny voiced the character of SpongeBob SquarePants . While Drumon and Hill were writing the pilot , Hillenburg was also conducting auditions to find voices for the show characters . He had created the character of SpongeBob with Tom Kenny , in which he utilised Kenny 's and other people 's personalities to help create its personality . Drymon said , `` Tom came in a few times so we could pitch him what we were working to help him find the right voice . Tom had already worked on lots of other animated shows , and Steve wanted to find an original sounding voice . '' The voice of SpongeBob was originally used by Kenny for a very minor female alligator character named Al in Rocko 's Modern Life . Kenny forgot the voice initially as he created it only for that single use . Hillenburg , however , remembered it when he was coming up with SpongeBob and used a video clip of the episode to remind Kenny of the voice . Kenny says that SpongeBob 's high pitched laugh was specifically aimed at being unique , stating that they wanted an annoying laugh in the tradition of Popeye and Woody Woodpecker . Kenny also provided the voice of Gary , SpongeBob 's meowing sea snail , and the narrator in the episode . According to him , `` It was always Steve 's intention that the narrator be a nod to his beloved Jacques Cousteau . '' Kenny described Cousteau 's voice as `` very dispassionate , very removed , very flatline , even when he 's describing something miraculous and beautiful . '' At first , they found that the narrator `` just sounds bored , '' so they decided that he `` has to sound a little fun and playful . '' Kenny said , `` ' Eet ees the most amazing thing I have ever seen I have ever seen in my life . ' We found that after a while we had to make the narrator a little more playful than that . '' Bill Fagerbakke voiced SpongeBob 's best friend , a starfish named Patrick Star in the episode . He auditioned for the role after Kenny had been cast as SpongeBob . Fagerbakke said , `` Steve is such a lovely guy , and I had absolutely no feeling for the material whatsoever . '' He described his experience in the audition , saying `` I was just going in for another audition , and I had no idea what was in store there in terms of the remarkable visual wit and really the kind of endearing child - like humanity in the show . I could n't pick that up from the audition material at all . I was just kind of perfunctorially trying to give the guy what he wanted . '' For the part of Squidward , Hillenburg originally had Mr. Lawrence in mind for the role . Lawrence worked with Hillenburg and Drymon before on Rocko 's Modern Life , so while working on the episode , Hillenburg invited him to audition for all the characters . Drymon said , `` We were showing Doug the storyboard , and he started reading back to us in his Tony the Tiger / Gregory Peck voice . It was really funny , and we wound up having SpongeBob use a deep voice when he entered the Krusty Krab for the first time . '' Hillenburg decided to give Lawrence the part of the series villain , Plankton , instead . Music ( edit ) Tiny Tim 's song `` Livin ' in the Sunlight , Lovin ' in the Moonlight '' was featured in the episode . The episode features the song called `` Livin ' in the Sunlight , Lovin ' in the Moonlight '' by Tiny Tim . At the point the pilot had already been completed , music editor Nick Carr was asked to retool the existing music on it . Carr said `` When I first started on SpongeBob , my duties were mainly music editorial but would quickly thrust me into the composers / supervisor chair . '' The production team had no budget and no music but they placed the budget on the song called `` Livin ' in the Sunlight , Lovin ' in the Moonlight '' . Carr said `` ( It is ) a sadly familiar scenario with most cartoons for television . By the time it comes to consider the music , the budget is blown . '' The idea of using `` Livin ' in the Sunlight , Lovin ' in the Moonlight '' originated when an anonymous sent Hillenburg a tape with `` a bunch of music . '' While the writers were developing the show outside Nickelodeon , Hillenburg played the song for Drymon as an example of the enthusiasm he was looking for . When it came time to write the pilot , they had the idea to use the song in the third act . The crew eventually got the rights to use the song for the pilot , but all they had was `` the crummy copy on Steve 's old tape . '' The writers were able to use the music , as one of the women who worked at Nickelodeon at the time `` knew somebody somewhere who had access to something , '' and she brought in a copy of the song on CD . Drymon said `` We were totally lucky that she had the contact , otherwise we would n't have been able to use it . The sad part was Tiny Tim died right around the time we were writing the pilot , so he never knew we used his song . '' Jeff Hutchins was with Hillenburg in Rocko 's Modern Life working on animation sound . Hutchins was approached by Hillenburg to do music for the show . He was asked for `` 20 things , like an ocean liner horn , '' and Hutchins knew he had the music Hillenburg was looking for . Hutchins said `` I offered him options and , in some cases , multiple choices . We agreed to meet at the Warner Bros. gate near the water tower in 20 minutes . '' He recorded the sound to a tape and met Hillenburg by the gate . Hutchins said `` He was about as happy as you could imagine , and off he went . Next thing you know , I am working on the show . '' Hutchins became the regular series sound designer . Release ( edit ) SpongeBob SquarePants aired its first episode , `` Help Wanted '' , along with sister episodes `` Reef Blower '' and `` Tea at the Treedome '' , on May 1 , 1999 , following the television airing of the 1999 Kids ' Choice Awards . The series later made its `` official '' debut on July 17 , 1999 with the second episode `` Bubblestand '' and `` Ripped Pants '' . `` Help Wanted '' was excluded in the SpongeBob SquarePants : The Complete 1st Season DVD , featuring the rest of the first - season episodes , since its release on October 28 , 2003 . It was not included because Nickelodeon did not want to pay Tiny Tim 's estate for the DVD rights , because the music in the episode was copyrighted . Drymon said `` ' Help Wanted ' had to be left off ( ... ) '' However , on the German release of the season one DVD , the episode `` Help Wanted '' actually is included . `` Help Wanted '' was later released on the SpongeBob SquarePants : The Complete 3rd Season DVD as a bonus feature on September 27 , 2005 . It was also released on the SpongeBob SquarePants : The First 100 Episodes DVD , alongside all the episodes of seasons one through five . The DVD included a featurette called `` Help Wanted '' the Seven Seas Edition that featured `` Help Wanted '' in numerous languages . The episode was also a bonus feature in the series DVD called SpongeBob SquarePants : 10 Happiest Moments that was released on September 14 , 2010 . On April 29 , 2014 , `` Help Wanted '' was released on the `` SpongeBob , You 're Fired ! '' episode compilation DVD . In 2013 , the series main cast members , including Tom Kenny , Clancy Brown , Rodger Bumpass and Bill Fagerbakke , performed a live read - through of the episode during the SpongeBob event called `` SpongeBob Fan Shellabration '' . The read - through took place on a sound effects stage at the Universal Studios Hollywood on September 7 -- 8 . The event also hosted the screening of the winning videos from the inaugural SpongeBob SquareShorts : Original Fan Tributes competition . Reception ( edit ) The SpongeBob pilot is one of the best pilots I 've seen because it conveys a strong personality for the character and a strong sensibility for the show overall . It 's interesting to remember that the show was not a huge hit immediately . It was just really good and interesting and went along in its own way for a while before people noticed it . `` '' Eric Coleman , Executive in Charge of Production for SpongeBob SquarePants . Upon its release , `` Help Wanted '' scored a 6.3 Nielsen rating , or 6.9 million total viewers , including 3.6 million children aged 2 -- 11 . Furthermore , the episode received generally favorable reviews from media critics . Michael Cavna of The Washington Post ranked `` Help Wanted '' at No. 3 at his The Top Five SpongeBob Episodes : We Pick ' Em list . Other episodes in the list are `` Band Geeks '' , `` Ripped Pants '' , `` Just One Bite '' and `` Idiot Box '' . Cavna rewatched the episode in 2009 and said `` so much of the style and polish are already in place . '' Nancy Basile of the About.com said `` ( The ) humor and optimistic essence of SpongeBob is evident even in this first episode . '' Maxie Zeus of Toon Zone said the episode is a `` winner '' . In an Associated Press article , Frazier Moore lauded the featured song in the episode called `` Livin ' in the Sunlight , Lovin ' in the Moonlight '' calling it the `` kookie part . '' Kent Osborne , a member of the SpongeBob SquarePants writing crew during the show 's third and fourth seasons , considers the episode `` really good . '' Eric Coleman , vice president of animation development and production at Nickelodeon , lauded the episode and calling it `` one of the best pilots '' because `` it conveys a strong personality . '' In a DVD review of the first season , Jason Bovberg of the DVD Talk was disappointed on the set , saying `` Where is it ? This is perhaps the only disappointment of the set . I was a little aggravated by the loooong animated menus that introduce all the characters , one by one , but it 's really that missing episode that has me upset . '' Bovberg described the set as `` annoying '' for missing the episode . Bill Treadway of the DVD Verdict , on the exclusion of the episode on the DVD , said `` It 's a small flaw in an otherwise top notch package . '' In a DVD review of the third season , Bryan Pope of the DVD Verdict , on the episode as a bonus feature , said `` The most intriguing extra is the series ' pilot episode , ' Help Wanted ' . '' He asked in his review `` Why release it now instead of in its natural spot with the first season ? '' At the end , he said `` Regardless , SpongeBob completists will cherish its inclusion here .

Fry , commonly known simply by his surname Fry , is a fictional character and the protagonist of the animated sitcom Futurama . He is voiced by Billy West using a version of his own voice as he sounded when he was 25 . He is a slacker delivery boy from the 20th century who becomes cryogenically frozen and reawakens in the 30th century to become a delivery boy there with an intergalactic delivery company run by his 30th great nephew , Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth . He is the best friend and roommate of Bender and the boyfriend and later husband of Turanga Leela . He is the father of Yancy Fry , Sr. ( due to an affair with his soon - to - be paternal grandmother ) and in comic only , Elena Fry as well as the stepfather of Kif 's Offspring ( due to Kif 's pregnancy and Leela 's accident motherhood ) . Contents 1 Character overview 1.1 Personality and abilities 1.2 Love life 1.2. 1 Leela 1.2. 2 Michelle 1.2. 3 Amy Wong 2 Production 3 References 4 External links Character overview ( edit ) Born in the 20th century in New York City , Fry is depicted as an unintelligent manchild in his 20s . The episode `` The Luck of the Fryrish '' seems to imply he was 25 at the time of his freezing . He is a pizza delivery boy who , during the last few seconds of the year 1999 , falls into a cryogenic tank while delivering a pizza to Applied Cryogenics . He remains frozen until the last day of the year 2999 . He then meets the one - eyed cryogenics counselor and his - soon - to - be wife , Leela and the cigar - smoking , alcoholic , kleptomaniac robot Bender . Together , they are employed by Fry 's distant nephew , the senile and demented old scientist Professor Farnsworth , as the crew of his delivery company Planet Express . Fry 's parents are Yancy Fry , Sr. , a strict Republican who believes in conspiracy theories , and Sherri Fry ( née Gleisner ) , an un-attentive chain smoker and avid New York Mets fan . It is later revealed that Fry 's family on his father 's side is from New Mexico . In the past Fry had an older brother named Yancy ; a dog named Seymour ; and a girlfriend named Michelle ( who dumped him in the first episode , `` Space Pilot 3000 '' , just before he was frozen ) . Fry had a lifelong sibling rivalry with his older brother Yancy , due to Fry 's perception that Yancy steals everything from him and vice versa . After dropping out of Coney Island Community College , he then got a job as a delivery boy at Panucci 's Pizza . Depictions of Fry 's family in early episodes showed them as extremely dysfunctional , with a neglectful mother and borderline - abusive father . Later seasons , however , depicted them as much closer and , while still dysfunctional , more loving and attentive , with Fry 's father treating him harshly to ensure he grew up tough . Personality and abilities ( edit ) Fry is characterized as simple , gullible , sweet , yet immature . Fry regards Bender as his closest friend . He also has strong feelings for Leela , although he lacks the intelligence required for articulating his emotions ; thus , for most of the series his love remains ( sometimes coldly ) unrequited , though not entirely without hope . She does occasionally return his interest throughout the series , and in the movie Into the Wild Green Yonder she admits to loving him back . At the end of that film , they are seen sharing a kiss as they enter a wormhole , and subsequently begin dating . Despite his low intelligence , Fry is very kind - hearted , as he often goes out of his way to help his friends , even if he is sometimes oblivious to their problems . He tolerates all of his friends ' quirks and is notable as the only staff member who accepts the ship 's doctor , Zoidberg . Although at times lacking in self - awareness , Fry always tries to do the right thing and fix his mistakes . Fry has shown remarkable skill playing video games , ( even mastering the 31st - century 's version on the Internet ) , and in `` Bender Should Not Be Allowed on TV '' is seen successfully playing a game despite not looking at the screen . This skill carries over to using Planet Express Ship 's laser gun . Fry has also exhibited remarkable bravery and self - sacrifice on occasion and has even displayed flashes of stagnant intelligence . Also , despite his laziness and clumsiness , Fry has proved to be a competent fighter in `` Law and Oracle '' and `` Fun on a Bun '' , the latter episode showing that Fry is skilled enough to hold his own against Leela in direct physical combat . He has also survived a heart attack intentionally caused by his best friend Bender . In the episode `` The Why of Fry '' , Leela 's seemingly oblivious pet Nibbler reveals himself as the reason for Fry 's freezing ; because Fry lacks the Delta brainwave . Due to a time - travel incident in `` Roswell That Ends Well '' , he is his own grandfather . He can withstand the intellect - draining onslaught of the evil Brainspawn and is immune to the Dark One 's mind - reading in Into the Wild Green Yonder as well as the mind - controlling power of the Hypnotoad . Nibbler 's race , the Nibblonians , dub him `` The Mighty One '' . Through prediction ( on the eve of 1999 , as the Nibblonians lack the ability to travel through time ) , they guessed that Fry would be the one to save the world from the evil Brainspawn . Because his natural lifespan would not extend to the right millennium , however , Nibbler is sent to make the aforementioned delivery call to push an unsuspecting Fry into the cryogenic tube , to re-emerge December 31 , 2999 . In several episodes , he feels nostalgic for the 20th century , and tries to convince his coworkers how good it was back then . Love life ( edit ) Leela ( edit ) Leela is Fry 's main love interest , and his love for her provides a major plot line throughout the series . Fry first begins to show a serious interest in her from the second season onwards , although she constantly turns him down for other dates due to his immaturity , though she says that she loves his boyish charm . Leela initially sees Fry as a friend and nothing more , but deeper affection for him appears occasionally , such as on the numerous occasions when he risks his life for hers ( `` Love and Rocket '' , `` The Sting '' , `` Lrrreconcilable Ndndifferences '' ) . Fry 's feelings for Leela are openly displayed throughout the series . In `` The Sting '' , Fry throws himself in front of a baby Queen Bee to protect Leela , resulting in the bee 's stinger completely penetrating his torso . In `` Love and Rocket '' , upon noticing that Leela 's oxygen tank was running on ' critical ' , he attaches her oxygen tube to his tank , giving her his oxygen and almost asphyxiating himself . In `` Parasites Lost '' , Fry becomes infected with symbiotic `` parasites '' which enhance his muscles and intelligence , allowing him to attract Leela 's romantic attention . However , fearing that Leela was attracted to him only for his worms , he rids himself of them in a failed bid to begin a genuine relationship . In `` Time Keeps on Slippin ' '' , Fry moves the stars to write a love note to Leela , but the message is blown up before she can read it . In the final episode of the initial run , `` The Devil 's Hands are Idle Playthings '' , Fry trades hands with the Robot Devil in order to compose an opera about Leela in which they fall in love . When Fry returns the Robot Devil 's hands to prevent him from forcing Leela to marry him , the opera deteriorates , causing the audience to leave . Fry sadly walks off the stage . Leela is the only one who remains behind , asking Fry not to stop because she wants to hear how it ends . He picks up his holophonor and composes a crude ending in which the stage - Fry and stage - Leela share a single kiss . In the film Futurama : Bender 's Big Score Leela falls in love with a seemingly perfect man , Lars , and they soon become engaged . However , Lars leaves Leela on her wedding day explaining later that as a time paradox he is doomed , and that he would n't marry her only to have her lose him soon after . Through this he then reveals that he is in fact the time paradox of Fry , who had undergone physical changes due to an explosion and become more mature through 12 years of age and experience . At the end of the film Futurama : Into the Wild Green Yonder , Leela openly admits to loving Fry , and they commence an openly romantic relationship from the episode `` Rebirth '' onwards . In `` The Prisoner of Benda '' they have `` sex '' , albeit in differing bodies . The on - again , off again nature of their relationship causes Leela to leave Planet Express and Fry in `` Overclockwise '' , however by the end of the episode , Leela returns to Planet Express and seemingly reunites with Fry . Bender reveals to both Fry and Leela their `` ultimate fate '' that he learned while he was overclocked . The audience is never shown the contents , but through their facial expressions it is clear that while the journey for them may be bumpy , Fry and Leela will ultimately end up happy . In later episodes , such as `` The Butterjunk Effect '' and `` Fun on a Bun '' , Fry and Leela are shown to be in a relationship , though the events of the series precipitate frequent arguments and breakups . These issues are usually resolved within the episode , leaving Fry and Leela still together at the end . During the series finale `` Meanwhile '' , Fry decides that it is time for him to propose to Leela . Wanting the moment of his proposal to last longer , he steals Professor Farnsworth 's time machine remote that turns back time every 10 seconds . When Leela is late , he thinks she has rejected him and attempts suicide by jumping off the building ; he sees her arriving just in time , however , and presses the reset button over and over again to keep from hitting the ground . He accidentally breaks the remote and freezes time , leaving himself and Leela as the only unfrozen beings in the universe . Leela accepts Fry 's proposal , and they have a long , happy marriage . The Professor shows up during one of their anniversaries and repairs the time machine , but informs them it will reset their lives , leaving them with no memory of the lifetime they spent together . Fry asks Leela if she wants to go around again with him , and she replies that she does . But they are apparently still married in the video game Futurama : Worlds of Tomorrow . Michelle ( edit ) Michelle ( voiced by Kath Soucie in the first appearance , Sarah Silverman in the second appearance ) is Fry 's on - and - off girlfriend from the 20th century . Shortly before Fry is frozen , she dumps him for a man named Constantine ( called Charles in `` The Cryonic Woman '' ) , whom she later marries . They eventually split up , and she decides to freeze herself to try again in the distant future . She wakes up in 3002 , meets Fry again , and restarts her relationship with him . However , she fails to fit into the 31st - century life to which Fry has become so accustomed , and so asks him to freeze himself with her for another thousand years . This plan fails , as does the rekindled relationship , so Fry leaves her . She later is shown in a limousine with the recently unfrozen Pauly Shore . In the episode `` Proposition Infinity '' , she is again shown with Pauly Shore , and the implication is that they are now married . Amy Wong ( edit ) During a trip on the luxury starliner Titanic , Amy Wong passes Fry off as her boyfriend to avoid being set up by her parents with an unattractive potential husband . Unfortunately , Leela was also passing Fry off as her fake fiancé to ward off the attentions of Zapp Brannigan . Potential embarrassment is averted by catastrophic damage to the ship , and Amy wins the battle of the bogus boyfriends . In `` Put Your Head on My Shoulders '' , Fry and Amy are trapped together in a desert on Mercury and realize they have a lot in common . While being towed to the nearest gas station to refuel , they have sex in the car . They continue the relationship back home , but Fry intends to end it the day before Valentine 's Day because he feels that they are spending too much time together . An accident ends with Fry 's head being temporarily attached to Amy 's body , causing much tension due to Fry 's decision to break up and Amy 's subsequent date , forcing Leela to step in and distract Amy 's date to save Fry from an awkward situation . Despite their break - up , they remain good friends . Production ( edit ) Billy West provides the voice of Fry . Although Billy West stated in an interview that the name `` Philip '' was given to Fry by Matt Groening as a homage to the late Phil Hartman , for whom the role of Zapp Brannigan was created , Groening said during the 2013 Futurama panel at the San Diego Comic - Con that Fry was in fact named after Groening 's father , Homer Phillip Groening , who was also the namesake for Homer Simpson . According to Groening , Fry 's character developed over time while still keeping his qualities as a loser and the characteristics which writers hoped would make him appeal to the target young male audience . Fry 's character is essentially a bungling , stubborn slob with a heart of gold who can not get ahead in the world , but still has a slight glimmer of hope . Fry 's trademark outfit - a red windbreaker jacket , white t - shirt and blue jeans - is based on James Dean 's outfit from Rebel Without a Cause . Fry is voiced by Billy West , who also voices Doctor Zoidberg , Hubert J. Farnsworth and various other characters in the series . Although West auditioned for the part , it was originally given to Charlie Schlatter ; however , after a casting change , West was offered the job . The voice West uses for Fry has been described as that of a `` generic Saturday - morning good guy '' . West admits that he intentionally made Fry 's sound similar to his own , claiming that keeping the `` cartoony '' aspects out of it would make it harder for someone else to imitate the same voice . He notes that the voice is higher than his own and that he tried to duplicate the voice he had at age 25 , which he describes as `` this whiny , complaining voice -- this plain vanilla voice '' . West also voices Lars Fillmore in Futurama : Bender 's Big Score , who is a time travel duplicate of Fry with an injured larynx , and therefore , a slightly altered voice . The producers initially considered having a different voice actor do Lars ' voice in order to keep viewers from guessing his true identity , but ultimately decided it would not make sense if anyone besides West did the voice .

The single reached number one on both the Billboard Hot 100 and Cash Box Top 100 charts , remaining in the top position for one week . It reached number two on the former chart for four weeks , stuck behind Gilbert O'Sullivan 's `` Alone Again ( Naturally ) '' , before reaching number one , only for `` Brandy '' to be dethroned by `` Alone Again ( Naturally ) '' the week after . Billboard ranked it as the 12th song of 1972 . Horns and strings were arranged by Larry Fallon .

'' Though lonely sailors flirt with her , she pines for one who 's long since left her because he claimed his life , his love , and his lady , was `` the sea . '' The urban myth that Brandy was based on Mary Ellis ( 1750 -- 1828 ) , a spinster in New Brunswick , New Jersey , has been refuted by Lurie himself . Lurie also refutes the suggestion that the song was written by songwriter Stephen Homner , and eventually sold to Elliot Lurie after Lurie expressed interest in the song . Before and after ( edit ) In February 1972 , Robert Mandel was the Epic Records Promotion Manager in Washington , D.C. He received a test pressing of an album by a new group named `` Looking Glass '' . He took the test pressing around to every radio station in the Washington / Baltimore region . At the time , WPGC AM / FM was one of the leading Top 40 stations in the country and was the number one radio station in DC . Harv Moore was the Program Director . He put the song into a one - hour rotation for two days and as Harv related at the time , `` the switchboard lit up like a Christmas tree '' . He said that he had never received a response like that on a record in his 15 years in radio . Based on the airplay at WPGC and all the other Top 40 stations that followed , Epic rush - released the single of `` Brandy '' . Based on requests alone , two weeks later , when the single finally hit the stores , `` Brandy '' was the number one record in DC without a single copy yet sold . Other stations around the country started playing it and it ended up being a number one million seller . A year later when Harv celebrated his 10th Anniversary at WPGC , Looking Glass returned the favor and played at the bash the station held in his honor . Barry Manilow 's `` Mandy '' ( edit ) Barry Manilow 's 1974 `` Mandy '' was a cover of a song originally titled `` Brandy '' , released in February 1972 by Scott English ; however , Manilow changed the title following the success of the Looking Glass single , so as not to get the two songs confused . This song is not related to the song by Looking Glass . In other media ( edit ) This song was used in the films Lords of Dogtown , Say Anything ... , Charlie 's Angels , A Very Brady Sequel , and Lymelife . It was also used in an episode of the 2009 television show Harper 's Island , and it can be heard in the background in a scene set in the longshoremen 's bar in Season 2 of The Wire . A Beautiful Music instrumental version can be heard in the background when Chris Knight is touring his potential future employer in the film Real Genius . In The Simpsons episode `` Principal Charming '' , Selma sings the song ( using a slower , mournful tempo and tone ) to Lisa as she is putting her to bed . In TV series companion book `` The Simpsons Uncensored Family Album '' Marge wrote that her paternal grandmother once told her that the song `` Brandy '' was based on Marge 's paternal grandfather 's life . Doug Heffernan ( Kevin James ) sings this song at karaoke in an episode of The King of Queens . The song appears in the computer game Tropico 2 : Pirate Cove , which takes place in a user - created seaside pirate town . One of the citizens ' thoughts is `` Brandy , you 're a good girl . You 'll do fine ! '' On the album Silver City by Sarah Borges , the song `` Same Old 45 '' retells the story of Brandy from her point of view . Fantasy author Alex Bledsoe used Brandy 's name and the song 's story for his novel Wake of the Bloody Angel . Paul Stanley of the rock band KISS wrote that Brandy helped inspire the band 's hit Hard Luck Woman in his 2014 memoir Face the Music : A Life Exposed . The song was ranked number 13 out of the top 76 songs of the 1970s by internet radio station WDDF Radio in their 2016 countdown . The song is included on the soundtrack of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 . It appears in the opening scene and again in a scene on Ego the Living Planet , when Ego uses the lyrics as metaphor to explain his experience as a cosmos - wandering Celestial who fell in love with Peter Quill 's mother on Earth . Ego called the song `` one of Earth 's greatest musical compositions , perhaps the greatest . '' Name popularity effect ( edit ) Following the song 's release in 1972 , `` Brandy '' increased in popularity as a girl 's name in the United States . According to data from the Social Security Administration , drawn from `` Social Security card applications for births that occurred in the United States , '' Brandy was the 353rd most popular name in 1971 , 140th in 1972 , and , in 1973 ( the first full year after the song 's popularity ) , 82nd . Cover versions ( edit ) Red Hot Chili Peppers performed a cover version of the song on their Live in Hyde Park album and during their 2004 tour . They again performed it in May 2017 for the first time in twelve years . Washboard Jungle often performs this song as an encore , and recorded it on their 1994 album The Wash Cycle . They play it considerably faster than either the original or the Chili Peppers version . Kenny Chesney performed a cover version for the Target Bonus Tracks on his 2005 album The Road and the Radio . Gonzalez performed a cover of this song released as a single on the EMI label . Ray Conniff and His Singers covered the song on the 1972 album Alone Again ( Naturally ) .

Saint Paul ( abbreviated St. Paul ) is the capital and second-most populous city of the U.S. state of Minnesota . As of 2017 , the city 's estimated population was 309,180 . Saint Paul is the county seat of Ramsey County , the smallest and most densely populated county in Minnesota . The city lies mostly on the east bank of the Mississippi River in the area surrounding its point of confluence with the Minnesota River , and adjoins Minneapolis , the state 's largest city . Known as the `` Twin Cities '' , the two form the core of Minneapolis -- Saint Paul , the 16th - largest metropolitan area in the United States , with about 3.6 million residents . Founded near historic Native American settlements as a trading and transportation center , the city rose to prominence when it was named the capital of the Minnesota Territory in 1849 . The Dakota name for Saint Paul is `` Imnizaska '' . Though Minneapolis ( Bdeota ) is better - known nationally , Saint Paul contains the state government and other important institutions . Regionally , the city is known for the Xcel Energy Center , home of the Minnesota Wild , and for the Science Museum of Minnesota . As a business hub of the Upper Midwest , it is the headquarters of companies such as Ecolab . Saint Paul , along with its Twin City , Minneapolis , is known for its high literacy rate . It was the only city in the United States with a population of 250,000 or more to see an increase in circulation of Sunday newspapers in 2007 . The settlement originally began at present - day Lambert 's Landing , but was known as Pig 's Eye after Pierre `` Pig 's Eye '' Parrant established a popular tavern there . When Lucien Galtier , the first Catholic pastor of the region , established the Log Chapel of Saint Paul ( shortly thereafter to become the first location of the Cathedral of Saint Paul ) , he made it known that the settlement was now to be called by that name , as `` Saint Paul as applied to a town or city was well appropriated , this monosyllable is short , sounds good , it is understood by all Christian denominations '' .

From the early 17th century until 1837 , the Mdewakanton Dakota , a tribe of the Sioux , lived near the mounds after fleeing their ancestral home of Mille Lacs Lake from advancing Ojibwe . They called the area I - mni - za ska dan ( `` little white rock '' ) for its exposed white sandstone cliffs . Following the Louisiana Purchase in 1803 , US Army officer Zebulon Pike negotiated approximately 100,000 acres ( 40,000 ha ; 160 sq mi ) of land from the local Dakota tribes in 1805 to establish a fort . The negotiated territory was located on both banks of the Mississippi River , starting from Saint Anthony Falls in present - day Minneapolis , to its confluence with the Saint Croix River . Fort Snelling was built on the territory in 1819 at the confluence of the Mississippi and Minnesota rivers , which formed a natural barrier to both Native American nations . The 1837 Treaty with the Sioux ceded all local tribal land east of the Mississippi to the U.S. Government . Taoyateduta ( Chief Little Crow V ) moved his band at Kaposia across the river to the south . Fur traders , explorers , and missionaries came to the area for the fort 's protection . Many of the settlers were French - Canadians who lived nearby . However , as a whiskey trade flourished , military officers banned settlers from the fort - controlled lands . Pierre `` Pig 's Eye '' Parrant , a retired fur trader - turned - bootlegger who particularly irritated officials , set up his tavern , the Pig 's Eye , near present - day Lambert 's Landing . By the early 1840s , the community had become important as a trading center and a destination for settlers heading west . Locals called the area Pig 's Eye ( French : L'Œil du Cochon ) or Pig 's Eye Landing after Parrant 's popular tavern . Joe Rolette was responsible for preventing the capital of Minnesota from moving to Saint Peter . In 1841 , Father Lucien Galtier was sent to minister to the Catholic French Canadians and established a chapel , named for his favorite saint , Paul the Apostle , on the bluffs above Lambert 's Landing . Galtier intended for the settlement to adopt the name Saint Paul in honor of the new chapel . In 1847 , a New York educator named Harriet Bishop moved to the area and opened the city 's first school . The Minnesota Territory was formalized in 1849 and Saint Paul named as its capital . In 1857 , the territorial legislature voted to move the capital to Saint Peter . However , Joe Rolette , a territorial legislator , stole the physical text of the approved bill and went into hiding , thus preventing the move . On May 11 , 1858 , Minnesota was admitted to the union as the thirty - second state , with Saint Paul as the capital . That year , more than 1,000 steamboats were in service at Saint Paul , making the city a gateway for settlers to the Minnesota frontier or Dakota Territory . Natural geography was a primary reason that the city became a landing . The area was the last accessible point to unload boats coming upriver due to the Mississippi River Valley 's stone bluffs . During this period , Saint Paul was called `` The Last City of the East . '' Industrialist James J. Hill constructed and expanded his network of railways into the Great Northern Railway and Northern Pacific Railway , which were headquartered in Saint Paul . Today they are collectively part of the BNSF Railway . On August 20 , 1904 , severe thunderstorms and tornadoes damaged hundreds of downtown buildings , causing USD $1.78 million ( $48.48 million present - day ) in damages to the city and ripping spans from the High Bridge . In the 1960s , during urban renewal , Saint Paul razed western neighborhoods close to downtown . The city also contended with the creation of the interstate freeway system in a fully built landscape . From 1959 to 1961 , the western Rondo Neighborhood was demolished by the construction of Interstate 94 , which brought attention to racial segregation and unequal housing in northern cities . The annual Rondo Days celebration commemorates the African American community . Downtown had short skyscraper - building booms beginning in the 1970s . The tallest buildings , such as Galtier Plaza ( Jackson and Sibley Towers ) , The Pointe of Saint Paul condominiums , and the city 's tallest building , Wells Fargo Place ( formerly Minnesota World Trade Center ) , were constructed in the late 1980s . In the 1990s and 2000s , the tradition of bringing new immigrant groups to the city continued . As of 2004 , nearly 10 % of the city 's population were recent Hmong immigrants from Vietnam , Laos , Cambodia , Thailand , and Myanmar . Saint Paul is the location of the Hmong Archives . Geography ( edit ) The Meeker Island Lock and Dam was the first lock and dam on the Mississippi River in 1902 . Saint Paul 's history and growth as a landing port are tied to water . The city 's defining physical characteristic , the confluence of the Mississippi and Minnesota Rivers , was carved into the region during the last ice age , as were the steep river bluffs and dramatic palisades on which the city is built . Receding glaciers and Lake Agassiz forced torrents of water from a glacial river that undercut the river valleys . The city is situated in east - central Minnesota . The Mississippi River forms a municipal boundary on part of the city 's west , southwest , and southeast sides . Minneapolis , the state 's largest city , lies to the west . Falcon Heights , Lauderdale , Roseville , and Maplewood are north , with Maplewood lying to the east . The cities of West Saint Paul and South Saint Paul are to the south , as are Lilydale , Mendota , and Mendota Heights , although across the river from the city . The city 's largest lakes are Pig 's Eye Lake , which is part of the Mississippi , Lake Phalen , and Lake Como . According to the United States Census Bureau , the city has a total area of 56.18 square miles ( 145.51 km ) , of which 51.98 square miles ( 134.63 km ) is land and 4.20 square miles ( 10.88 km ) is water . The Parks and Recreation department is responsible for 160 parks and 41 recreation centers . The city ranked # 2 in park access and quality , after only Minneapolis , in the 2018 ParkScore ranking of the top 100 park systems across the United States according to the nonprofit Trust for Public Land . Neighborhoods ( edit ) Main article : Neighborhoods of Saint Paul Saint Paul 's Department of Planning and Economic Development divides Saint Paul into seventeen Planning Districts , created in 1979 to allow neighborhoods to participate in governance and use Community Development Block Grants . With a funding agreement directly from the city , the councils share a pool of funds . The councils have significant land - use control , a voice in guiding development , and they organize residents . The boundaries are adjusted depending on population changes ; as such , they sometimes overlap established neighborhoods . Though these neighborhoods changed over time , preservationists have saved many of their historically significant structures . The city 's seventeen Planning Districts are : Sunray - Battle Creek - Highwood Greater East Side West Side Dayton 's Bluff Payne - Phalen North End Thomas Dale ( Frogtown ) Summit - University West End Como Park Hamline - Midway Saint Anthony Park Union Park Macalester - Groveland Highland Park Summit Hill Downtown Climate ( edit ) See also : Climate of the Twin Cities and Climate of Minnesota The city skyline from the southwest in the winter Saint Paul has a continental climate typical of the Upper Midwestern United States . Winters are frigid and snowy , while summers are warm to hot and humid . On the Köppen climate classification , Saint Paul falls in the hot summer humid continental climate zone ( Dfa ) . The city experiences a full range of precipitation and related weather events , including snow , sleet , ice , rain , thunderstorms , tornadoes , and fog . Due to its northerly location in the United States and lack of large bodies of water to moderate the air , Saint Paul is sometimes subjected to cold Arctic air masses , especially during late December , January , and February . The average annual temperature of 47.05 ° F ( 8.36 ° C ) gives the Minneapolis − Saint Paul metropolitan area the coldest annual mean temperature of any major metropolitan area in the continental U.S. <Th_colspan="14"> ( hide ) Climate data for Saint Paul , Minnesota Month Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Year Record high ° F ( ° C ) 57 ( 14 ) 59 ( 15 ) 83 ( 28 ) 93 ( 34 ) 93 ( 34 ) 103 ( 39 ) 105 ( 41 ) 103 ( 39 ) 95 ( 35 ) 88 ( 31 ) 75 ( 24 ) 66 ( 19 ) 105 ( 41 ) Average high ° F ( ° C ) 26 ( − 3 ) 31 ( − 1 ) 43 ( 6 ) 58 ( 14 ) 71 ( 22 ) 80 ( 27 ) 85 ( 29 ) 82 ( 28 ) 73 ( 23 ) 59 ( 15 ) 42 ( 6 ) 29 ( − 2 ) 57 ( 14 ) Daily mean ° F ( ° C ) 16.5 ( − 8.6 ) 21.5 ( − 5.8 ) 33.5 ( 0.8 ) 48 ( 9 ) 60.5 ( 15.8 ) 69.5 ( 20.8 ) 74.5 ( 23.6 ) 72 ( 22 ) 63 ( 17 ) 50 ( 10 ) 34.5 ( 1.4 ) 21 ( − 6 ) 47.05 ( 8.36 ) Average low ° F ( ° C ) 7 ( − 14 ) 12 ( − 11 ) 24 ( − 4 ) 38 ( 3 ) 50 ( 10 ) 59 ( 15 ) 64 ( 18 ) 62 ( 17 ) 53 ( 12 ) 41 ( 5 ) 27 ( − 3 ) 13 ( − 11 ) 38 ( 3 ) Record low ° F ( ° C ) − 29 ( − 34 ) − 32 ( − 36 ) − 25 ( − 32 ) ( − 16 ) 21 ( − 6 ) 36 ( 2 ) 45 ( 7 ) 42 ( 6 ) 26 ( − 3 ) 15 ( − 9 ) − 14 ( − 26 ) − 29 ( − 34 ) − 32 ( − 36 ) Average precipitation inches ( mm ) 0.79 ( 20.1 ) 0.67 ( 17 ) 1.54 ( 39.1 ) 2.87 ( 72.9 ) 3.7 ( 94 ) 4.21 ( 106.9 ) 4.41 ( 112 ) 4.76 ( 120.9 ) 3.27 ( 83.1 ) 2.91 ( 73.9 ) 1.81 ( 46 ) ( 28 ) 32.04 ( 813.9 ) <Td_colspan="14"> Source # 1 : U.S. climate data <Td_colspan="14"> Source # 2 : The Weather Channel Demographics ( edit ) <Th_colspan="4"> Historical population Census Pop . % ± 1850 1,112 -- 1860 10,401 835.3 % 1870 20,030 92.6 % 1880 41,473 107.1 % 1890 133,156 221.1 % 1900 163,065 22.5 % 1910 214,744 31.7 % 1920 234,698 9.3 % 1930 271,606 15.7 % 1940 287,736 5.9 % 1950 311,349 8.2 % 1960 313,411 0.7 % 1970 309,980 − 1.1 % 1980 270,230 − 12.8 % 1990 272,235 0.7 % 2000 287,151 5.5 % 285,068 − 0.7 % Est. 2018 309,180 8.5 % <Td_colspan="4"> U.S. Decennial Census 2015 Estimate Main article : Demographics of Saint Paul ( hide ) Demographic profile 2000 1990 1970 White 60.1 % 67.0 % 82.3 % 95.4 % -- Non-Hispanic 55.9 % 64.0 % 80.4 % 93.6 % Black or African American 15.7 % 11.7 % 7.4 % 3.5 % Hispanic or Latino ( of any race ) 9.6 % 7.9 % 4.2 % 2.1 % Asian 15.0 % 12.4 % 7.1 % 0.2 % The earliest known inhabitants from about 400 A.D. were members of the Hopewell tradition who buried their dead in mounds ( now Indian Mounds Park ) on the bluffs above the river . The next known inhabitants were the Mdewakanton Dakota in the 17th century who fled their ancestral home of Mille Lacs Lake in central Minnesota in response to westward expansion of the Ojibwe nation . The Ojibwe would later occupy the north ( east ) bank of the Mississippi River . By 1800 , French - Canadian explorers came through the region and attracted fur traders to the area . Fort Snelling and nearby Pig 's Eye Tavern also brought the first Yankees from New England and English , Irish , and Scottish immigrants who had enlisted in the army and settled nearby after discharge . These early settlers and entrepreneurs built houses on the heights north of the river . The first wave of immigration came with the Irish who settled at Connemara Patch along the Mississippi , named for their home in Connemara Ireland . The Irish would become prolific in politics , city governance , and public safety , much to the chagrin of the Germans and French who had grown into the majority . In 1850 , the first of many groups of Swedish immigrants passed through Saint Paul on their way to farming communities in northern and western regions of the territory . A large group settled in Swede Hollow , which would later become home to Poles , Italians , and Mexicans . The last Swedish presence had moved up Saint Paul 's East Side along Payne Avenue in the 1950s . In terms of people who specified European ancestry in the 2005 - 2007 American Community Survey , the city was 26.4 % German , 13.8 % Irish , 8.4 % Norwegian , 7.0 % Swedish , and 6.2 % English . There is also a visible community of people of Sub-Saharan African ancestry , representing 4.2 % of Saint Paul 's population . By the 1980s , the Thomas Dale area , once an Austro - Hungarian enclave known as Frogtown ( German : Froschburg ) , became home to Vietnamese people who had left their war - torn country . A settlement program for the Hmong diaspora came soon after , and by 2000 , the Saint Paul Hmong were the largest urban contingent in the United States . Mexican immigrants have settled in Saint Paul 's West Side since the 1930s , and have grown enough that Mexico opened a foreign consulate in 2005 . The majority of residents claiming religious affiliation are Christian , split between the Roman Catholic Church and various Protestant denominations . The Roman Catholic presence comes from Irish , German , Scottish , and French Canadian settlers who , in time , would be bolstered by Hispanic immigrants . There are Jewish synagogues such as Mount Zion Temple and relatively small populations of Hindus , Muslims , and Buddhists . The city has been dubbed `` paganistan '' due to its large Wiccan population .

Media ( edit ) Main article : Media in the Twin Cities Minnesota Public Radio headquarters in downtown Saint Paul Residents of Saint Paul can receive 10 broadcast television stations , five of which broadcast from within Saint Paul . One daily newspaper , the St. Paul Pioneer Press , two weekly neighborhood newspapers , the East Side Review and City Pages ( owned by The Star Tribune Company ) , and several monthly or semimonthly neighborhood papers serve the city . Several media outlets based in neighboring Minneapolis also serve the Saint Paul community , including the Star Tribune . Saint Paul is home to Minnesota Public Radio , a three - format system that broadcasts on nearly 40 stations around the Midwest . MPR locally delivers news and information , classical , and The Current ( which plays a wide variety of music ) . The station has 110,000 regional members and more than 800,000 listeners each week throughout the Upper Midwest , the largest audience of any regional public radio network . Also operating as part of American Public Media , MPR 's programming reaches five million listeners , most notably through Live from Here , hosted by Chris Thile ( previously known as A Prairie Home Companion , hosted by Garrison Keillor , who also lives in the city ) . The Fitzgerald Theater , renamed in 1994 for Saint Paul native and novelist F. Scott Fitzgerald , is home to the show . Transportation ( edit ) Interstate and roadways ( edit ) Interstate Highways Interstate 35E Interstate 94 US Highways US 10 US 52 US 61 Minnesota Highways Highway 5 Highway 51 Highway 280 I - 94 as it enters downtown Saint Paul from the west Residents use Interstate 35E running north - south and Interstate 94 running east - west . Trunk highways include U.S. Highway 52 , Minnesota State Highway 280 , and Minnesota State Highway 5 . Saint Paul has several unique roads such as Ayd Mill Road , Phalen Boulevard and Shepard Road / Warner Road , which diagonally follow particular geographic features in the city . Biking is also gaining popularity , due to the creation of more paved bike lanes that connect to other bike routes throughout the metropolitan area and the creation of Nice Ride Minnesota , a seasonally operated nonprofit bicycle sharing and rental system that has over 1,550 bicycles and 170 stations in both Minneapolis and Saint Paul . Downtown Saint Paul has a five - mile ( 8 km ) enclosed skyway system over twenty - five city blocks . The 563 - mile ( 906 km ) Avenue of the Saints connects Saint Paul with Saint Louis , Missouri . The layout of city streets and roads has often drawn complaints . While he was Governor of Minnesota , Jesse Ventura appeared on the Late Show with David Letterman , and remarked that the streets were designed by `` drunken Irishmen '' . He later apologized , though people had been complaining about the fractured grid system for more than a century by that point . Some of the city 's road design is the result of the curve of the Mississippi River , hilly topography , conflicts between developers of different neighborhoods in the early city , and grand plans only half - realized . Outside of downtown , the roads are less confusing , but most roads are named , rather than numbered , increasing the difficulty for non-natives to navigate . Mass Transit ( edit ) See also : Metro Transit ( Minnesota ) Metro Transit provides bus service and light rail in the Minneapolis -- Saint Paul area . The METRO Green Line is an 11 - mile ( 18 km ) light rail line that connects downtown Saint Paul to downtown Minneapolis with 14 stations in Saint Paul . The Green Line runs west along University Avenue , through the University of Minnesota campus , until it links up and then shares stations with the METRO Blue Line in downtown Minneapolis . Construction began in November 2010 and the line began service on June 14 , 2014 . Roughly 45,000 people rode on the first day ; an average 28,000 riders are expected per day . Metro Transit opened the METRO A Line , Minneapolis -- Saint Paul 's first arterial bus rapid transit line , along Snelling Avenue and Ford Parkway . The A Line connects the METRO Blue Line at 46th Street station to Rosedale Center with a connection at the Green Line Snelling Avenue station . The A Line is the first in a series of planned arterial bus rapid transit lines and is set to open in early 2016 . Railroad ( edit ) Amtrak 's Empire Builder between Chicago and Seattle stops once daily in each direction at the newly renovated Saint Paul Union Station . Ridership on the train is increasing , about 6 % from 2005 to over 505,000 in fiscal year 2007 . Increased ridership has prompted southern Minnesota leaders to plan for an expansion of Amtrak 's service in the area . Saint Paul is the site of the Pig 's Eye Yard , a major freight classification yard for Canadian Pacific Railway . As of 2003 , the yard handled over 1,000 freight cars per day . Both Union Pacific and Burlington Northern Santa Fe run trains through the yard , though they are not classified at Pig 's Eye . Burlington Northern Santa Fe operates the large Northtown Yard in Minneapolis , which handles about 600 cars per day . There are several other small yards located around the city . Saint Paul Downtown Airport ( Holman Field ) Airports ( edit ) See also : St. Paul Downtown Airport Saint Paul is served by the Minneapolis -- Saint Paul International Airport ( MSP ) , which sits on 3,400 acres ( 14 km ) southwest of the city on the west side of the Mississippi River between Minnesota State Highway 5 , Interstate 494 , Minnesota State Highway 77 , and Minnesota State Highway 62 . The airport serves three international , twelve domestic , seven charter , and four regional carriers and is a hub and home base for Delta Air Lines , Mesaba Airlines and Sun Country Airlines . Saint Paul is also served by the St. Paul Downtown Airport located just south of downtown , across the Mississippi River . The airport , also known as Holman Field , is a reliever airport run by the Metropolitan Airports Commission . The airport houses Minnesota 's Air National Guard and is tailored to local corporate aviation . There are three runways that serve about 100 resident aircraft and a flight training school . The Holman Field Administration Building and Riverside Hangar are on the National Register of Historic Places .

can you get a tattoo with an 18 year old
Legal status of Tattooing in the United states - wikipedia Legal status of Tattooing in the United states Jump to : navigation , search In the United States , there is no federal law regulating the practice of tattooing . However , all 50 states and the District of Columbia have statutory laws requiring a person receiving a tattoo be 18 years of age or older . This is partially based on the legal principle that a minor can not enter into a legal contract or otherwise render informed consent for a procedure . Most states permit a person under the age of 18 to receive a tattoo with permission of a parent or guardian , but some states outright prohibit tattooing under a certain age regardless of permission , with the exception of medical necessity ( such as markings placed for radiation therapy ) . In all jurisdictions , individual tattooists may also choose to place additional restrictions based on their own moral feelings , such as refusing any clients under a specific age even with parental consent despite it being legal , or limiting the type and / or location of where they are willing to tattoo ( such as refusing any work around intimate parts of the body ) . They may additionally refuse to perform specific artwork , including if they merely find it inappropriate or offensive , or refuse to work on a client that they suspect may be intoxicated . Artists sometimes claim their personal business restrictions are a matter of law even when it is not true , so as to avoid arguments with clients .

Synopsis ( edit ) After being punished with no more television for ruining both his parents ' jobs by using elements from a violent television show called `` Maho Mushi '' , Timmy has had enough of tolerating his torturing babysitter Vicky . He wishes up for a magical remote that allows him to enter inside television shows ; unfortunately , however , the remote falls into Vicky 's hands . With the remote , Vicky plans to enter the biographical channel which is featuring `` Dictator Week '' so she can become a world dictator . Timmy wishes up for another magical remote , and enters inside television in order to stop Vicky 's plans . Meanwhile , Timmy 's parents Mr. and Mrs. Turner , who dismiss their son 's concerns of Vicky every time , refuse to believe that Vicky is most certainly an evil babysitter , until a fateful day when they receive information proving otherwise from Vicky 's younger sister , Tootie . Plot ( edit ) 20 years into the future , adults Chester and A.J. race through a dystopian Dimmsdale , chased by a masked man . The masked man pleads to Chester and A.J. to give up , but they believe it is a trap . Chester stays behind and tries to stall the masked man , but the masked man easily dispatches him and zaps him with a laser , freezing Chester in stasis . A.J. has gotten ahead , and managed to make it to his old house where he completes a time belt so that he can go into the past and prevent the bad future from ever happening . But before he can get do this , the masked man freezes A.J. and takes the belt from him . A robed figure appears behind him , who is revealed to be Vicky , now the Supreme Ruler of the World . She sends the masked man back in time to prevent Timmy from stopping her . Back in the present , sixteen - year - old Vicky is preparing a backpack full of torture items for when she babysits Timmy , while a news editorial by Chet Ubetcha begins airing on the TV . He is warning adults about violent TV and how it is affecting kids . Chet particularly blames a program called Maho Mushi , a Japanese anime - type fighting show resembling Dragon Ball Z . Meanwhile , Timmy wishes for a Maho Mushi spaceship known as the Kid Crusher ( a parody of The Star Destroyer from the Star Wars films ) and flies it around Dimmsdale , raining destruction and causing widespread panic on the streets below . Wanda becomes concerned of what Timmy is doing and warns him that watching dangerous stunts on TV is one thing , but doing them in the real - world seems very dangerous . When he almost crashes into a plane , he wishes himself into a `` Banzai Bubble '' from his Maho Mushi cards and then starts plummeting toward his dad 's office . Timmy destroys his dad 's office and ruins his dad 's chance to win a raise and a `` Cleanest Office '' plaque and upstage his archenemy ( and neighbor ) Dinkleberg . Elsewhere , Mrs. Turner is about to sell Billy Joel a glass house , when Timmy collides into it causing it to shatter , just moments before the transaction was to be completed . As Mr. and Mrs. Turner drag Timmy home to punish him , a green light and electrical sparks fill the alley , and the masked man from the future appears as he proceeds to follow Timmy . Meanwhile , at Timmy 's house , Mr. and Mrs. Turner scold Timmy for ruining both of their jobs and mimicking a violent television program after they discovered that all of the violence that Timmy imitated was from Maho Mushi . Mr. and Mrs. Turner tell Timmy to not watch Maho Mushi anymore and watch an educational program instead , like Dictator Week ( a parody of World War II history ) on the Biographical Channel , but Timmy refuses . This makes Mr. and Mrs. Turner angry when they realize that they can not trust Timmy to not mimic television , and therefore they can not trust Timmy with television at all , and so they ground Timmy from watching television , and hire Vicky to watch him and make sure he is not allowed to watch television while they go out . Before Mr. and Mrs. Turner can leave , Timmy begs his parents not to leave him with Vicky , as she is evil . Mr. and Mrs. Turner briefly suspect something about Vicky , but they shrug it off after Vicky showers them with cheap gifts she got . Mr. and Mrs. Turner run off to gloat about their gifts to Dinkleberg . Vicky begins to chase Timmy with a flame - thrower . Timmy runs up to his room and barricades his door behind him to prevent Vicky from coming in , and then sarcastically asks his fairy godparents what he should do now that his parents grounded him from watching television . They take the hint , and poof up Timmy a television so Timmy can watch television again . However , Wanda still scolds Timmy about disobeying his parents ( even though they did n't listen to him about Vicky ) , so Timmy decides to wish himself a magic remote that gets him into the TV while Cosmo and Wanda stay in Timmy 's room to make sure Vicky does n't see what Timmy is doing without disobeying his parents . Timmy explores a few channels , first a cartoon show about the future called The Futurellis , then a cartoon program called Carpet Critters , and later a cartoon program called Heavy Hal . Cosmo and Wanda watch Timmy as he interacts with the TV programs he explores , when Vicky comes and tries to bust down Timmy 's door . Cosmo disguises himself as Timmy and does a bad job at hiding the fact that Timmy is trying to sneak in and watch television again in his room . Vicky takes a photograph of `` Timmy '' next to the TV and decides to tell on Timmy . Outside of Timmy 's house , the masked man is stalking Timmy , but gets blinded by the light of the plaque that Vicky gave Mr. Turner while Mr. Turner is showing off his plaque to Dinkleberg . Dinkleberg becomes impressed by his plaque , but shows him an even brighter plaque which almost blinds Mr. Turner . Mrs. Turner gets a call from Vicky , who says that Timmy not only immediately turned on the television after they left , but also caused a variety of other destructive events around the house that were really caused by Vicky herself . Mr. and Mrs. Turner furiously return home , believing that Timmy had destroyed their house . Back inside TV , Timmy is in another cartoon program called Jonny Hunt . Timmy is happy that the adults in that program will allow a 10 - year - old boy like him to go on dangerous missions , but not without giving him a dangerous weapon first . Timmy returns to the real world and shows Cosmo and Wanda the rocket launcher he got from television . Wanda warns Timmy that he has a dangerous weapon in the real - world and Timmy does n't think so as he tells Cosmo and Wanda as long as they are around and Cosmo remarks at least until Timmy gets older and Wanda shushes him . Timmy becomes confused and asks Cosmo and Wanda what do they mean `` older '' . Wanda explains to Timmy that Fairy Godparents are only assigned to kids who need them most . When godchildren get older their fairy godparents are sent back to Fairy World and all memories of the fairies are forgotten by the godchild . This upsets Timmy when he realizes that when he gets older , he will one day forget all the adventures he had with Cosmo and Wanda . To make matters worse , Vicky arrives with Timmy 's infuriated parents as she burns down Timmy 's barricaded door with a flame - thrower . Timmy accidentally fires the rocket launcher he brought back from television , blowing the roof off and destroying the upper floor of his house with the roof landing on the masked man , who is standing on a tree , knocking him unconscious . This infuriates Mr. Turner to his peak as he can no longer take Dinkleberg getting all the awards and money after losing the raise and `` Cleanest House '' plaque to Dinkleberg and also can not use the rocket launcher to fire at Dinkleberg 's house , because it 's out of ammo . Timmy 's parents give the magic remote to Vicky as punishment , and they threaten to ground Timmy harder for disobeying them and trashing the Turner household as they still refuse to listen to Timmy about Vicky after Timmy tried to prove his innocence by explaining to them that Vicky is the actual culprit . After his parents refuse to believe him again about the truth of Vicky 's evil , Timmy becomes fed up about his parents not believing him about Vicky . He decides to run away from home and live through television after seeing the characters that he watches on TV have stayed the same age forever and realizes that if he was a kid forever , then he would n't have to lose Cosmo and Wanda . He wishes for another magic remote and poofs into the TV with Cosmo and Wanda . The masked man , who was spying on them the whole time , regains consciousness and follows them . Timmy 's parents come back to the room , only to discover that their son has vanished without a trace . The masked man ends up in the wrong channel showing a cartoon called Paula Poundcake . Meanwhile , Timmy and his fairies have arrived in Walnuts where Timmy plans to live here forever . After the adults call the police on Timmy , he decides to go into Space Spectre . Back in the real world , Vicky is watching TV with the magic remote which inadvertently merges a political debate show called Politically Inaccurate with a wrestling show . She realizes that the remote is magic , and changes the channel to a contest show . Vicky accidentally switches places with the $1,000,000 winner with the magic remote . She is handed a bag of money , but the host takes it back when its pointed out that Vicky is 16 , and too young to participate in the TV contest . Frustrated , Vicky smacks the remote again , pressing the fast forward button and aging herself to 18 . Vicky is now able to take the contest money , and she also begins to realize the power of the remote . She wants to go to the Dictator Week program on TV and change history so that she can take over the world . Still inside the Space Spectre cartoon , Timmy and his fairies are about to be captured by the masked man , who has tracked them down . The masked man demands the remote , promising that he will send Timmy back home unharmed , but Timmy refuses and manages to use his remote to escape the channel . His next destination is The Meatflints . The masked man continues to chase Timmy through other programs including Go Go Racer , Snooper Dog and the Clue Crew , and Blackbird and Sparrow . Back in Dimmsdale , Mr. and Mrs. Turner are looking for Timmy and start their search by questioning Chester and A.J. about Vicky , and whether she is really evil . Hidden cameras and shocking ankle bracelets prevent the two from telling Timmy 's parents the truth . Meanwhile , in the Blackbird cartoon , Timmy is again attacked by the Masked Man . This time , Timmy manages to corner the masked man in the Birdcage and the masked man takes off his mask , and the man is revealed to be Timmy himself , from the future . Adult Timmy reveals that Vicky successfully changed history and became Supreme Leader of the world , turning Dimmsdale into a desolate wasteland . Sneaking into the ranks of Vicky 's troops , Adult Timmy managed to become Vicky 's most trusted soldier . He was sent after Adult Chester and A.J. who were inventing a device to go back in time and stop Vicky . Once A.J. completed the device , Timmy took it so that Vicky would send him back in time with it and not suspect anything . Adult Timmy needs to stop Vicky and destroy the remotes so that the future will change . Present Timmy is unconcerned with this at first , but agrees to help after the group is attacked by Vicky . Mr. and Mrs. Turner continue to look for answers . They go to Vicky 's House and decide to talk to Vicky 's dad and mom directly , but they are no help , when arrays of Lasers are on them . They are completely terrified of their daughter , and push Mr. and Mrs. Turner out of the house the moment they realize they might suspect something of her . Tootie is watching from her room above and overhears that Timmy is missing because of Vicky , and decides to take matters into her own hands . She throws a cryptic message attached to a Timmy doll through the window of the Turners ' car , asking them to meet her at the Dimmadelphia Cable building , disguising her name as Deep Toot . In the TV universe , Timmy , Cosmo , Wanda , and Adult Timmy chase Vicky through some more programs , including Clint 's Hints , Ted and Jimmy , Rabid Rabbit , an unnamed Christmas special , The Feldmans , and Poppyseed Avenue . Mr. and Mrs. Turner meet Tootie in the parking lot of the Dimmadelphia Cable building . Tootie shows the Turner parents photographs of Vicky 's misdeeds , including the ones they had blamed on Timmy . For the first time , Mr. and Mrs. Turner learn that Timmy was right about Vicky being an evil babysitter . Before they can thank Deep Toot for her help , she disappears without a trace . They are completely bewildered to her identity , despite her mistakenly including her real name on her cryptic notes . Mr. and Mrs. Turner have finally realized their mistake and realize they should find Timmy and apologize to him , heading to the Dimmadome station as they believe that Timmy is hiding and watching television . In television , Timmy is about to enter the next channel , Maho Mushi , riding on the credits of the previous show , Adolescent Genetically Altered Karate Cows . However , Vicky destroys Adult Timmy 's time belt , sending him falling to his death and causing him to return to the future . Timmy becomes furious that Vicky took away the one cool adult in his life , just like she takes away everything else from him . He vows to defeat her , in Maho Mushi , once and for all . At the climax , Timmy and Vicky enter Maho Mushi and appear in a fighting arena . They use the power of their remotes to battle each other , control giant fighting robots to battle each other , fire blasts from the remote , and use the remotes as glowing swords to attack each other . Battling to a stalemate , Timmy realizes the only way to defeat Vicky is to become old enough that Cosmo and Wanda 's magic goes away , and the remotes will stop working . He ages himself all the way to age eighteen , and the remotes stop working . However , the Fairy Taxi arrives to take Cosmo and Wanda away . The fairies resist , so a tractor beam begins to suck them toward the taxi . Before it can get them both , the fairies make Timmy 10 years old again , so he gets to keep his fairies . Timmy gets both of the remotes back and recharges their power , using them to blast Vicky out of television and back into her room . She lands roughly in her bed , thinking it was all a dream . However , Vicky gets a cryptic message attached to a Timmy doll through the window of her bedroom , telling that Vicky is in really big trouble . Timmy has finally won the battle as he , Cosmo and Wanda leave the program . Timmy is still worried that his parents are still mad at him for what he has done . Back home , the Turners plead Doug Dimmadome for his help using the cable station to broadcast a message to Timmy , because they were sure that wherever he was , he was in front of a TV . As Doug Dimmadome debates with himself whether to help the Turners or have security remove them ( since Timmy has both helped and foiled Doug Dimmadome in the past ) , the Turners sneak by him and use the studio cameras to broadcast a message to every channel on TV , apologizing to Timmy for not believing that Vicky is evil and told him that he must come home because they love him . Timmy sees the message while he is surfing through the TV Universe and decides that it is time to return home . When his parents finish the broadcast , he appears out of the TV , hugs them and reconcile . Back at the Turner household , Mr. and Mrs. Turner finally confront Vicky for being a cruel and nasty babysitter and fire her as they told her that she could 've been nicer to Timmy . However , Timmy uses the remote to pause everything , and then wished the remotes never existed , and nobody to remember all of this happened . Timmy realizes that without Vicky around to make him miserable , he would lose his godparents . He wishes that everyone forgot all the events that happened over the course of his adventure . The wish is granted , and a wave of magic erased everything that happened including Vicky 's firing , Tootie 's evidence against Vicky and her , Chester , and A.J. 's memories of the event . With everything peaceful and back to normal , Timmy decides to bury a time capsule , which includes a photograph of Timmy and his two goldfish . He buries it next to a flower and a tree , and tells Cosmo and Wanda that when he is grown , he will not make the same mistakes that his parents made . Wanda says that it is a beautiful day and there is so much to do outside , but Timmy and Cosmo would rather go inside and watch television . 20 years later , the future Dimmsdale is a normal , technologically advanced place . Timmy 's children , Tommy and Tammy , are unearthing Timmy 's old time capsule . The children take the time capsule to their father Timmy , who is now a working man at the age of 30 , dressed in a tie and getting ready for work . His children ask about the time capsule , as Timmy views the photograph he removed from it . As a result of his age , Timmy no longer remembers his fairies and sees only normal goldfish . Timmy pockets the picture and leaves for work , ironically leaving his children under the care of a violent babysitter robot modeled after Vicky . His children beg for him to take them with him , when it 's revealed that Cosmo and Wanda are watching over them as goldfish like they did for Timmy 20 years ago , they remark that some things never change .

when did congress demand purna swaraj and why
Purna Swaraj - Wikipedia Purna Swaraj Jump to : navigation , search The flag adopted in 1931 and used by Provisional Government during the subsequent years of Second World War . The Purna Swaraj declaration , or Declaration of the Independence of India , was promulgated by the Indian National Congress on 19 December 1929 , resolving the Congress and Indian nationalists to fight for Purna Swaraj , or complete self - rule independent of the British Empire ( literally in Sanskrit , purna , `` complete , `` self , '' raj , `` rule , '' thus `` complete self - rule '' ) . The flag of India had been hoisted by Gandhi on 31 December 1929 , in Lahore , modern - day Pakistan . The Congress asked the people of India to observe 26 January as Independence Day . The flag of India was hoisted publicly across India by Congress volunteers , nationalists and the public .

Please help improve this section by adding citations to reliable sources . Unsourced material may be challenged and removed . ( July 2015 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) Before 1930 , Indian political parties had openly embraced the goal of political independence from the United Kingdom . The All India Home Rule League had been advocating Home Rule for India : dominion status within the British Empire , as granted to Australia , Canada , the Irish Free State , Newfoundland , New Zealand , and South Africa . The All India Muslim League favoured dominion status as well , and opposed calls for outright Indian independence . The Indian Liberal Party , by far the most pro-British party , explicitly opposed India 's independence and even dominion status if it weakened India 's links with the British Empire . The Indian National Congress , the largest Indian political party of the time , was at the head of the national debate . Congress leader and famous poet Hasrat Mohani was the first activist to demand complete independence ( Poorna Swaraj ) from the British in 1921 from an All - India Congress Forum . Veteran Congress leaders such as Bal Gangadhar Tilak , Aurobindo and Bipin Chandra Pal had also advocated explicit Indian independence from the Empire . Following the 1919 Amritsar Massacre , there was considerable public outrage against British rule . Europeans , ( civilians and officials ) were targets and victims of violence across India . In 1920 , Gandhi and the Congress committed themselves to Swaraj , described as political and spiritual independence . At the time , Gandhi described this as the basic demand of all Indians ; he specifically said that the question of whether India would remain within the Empire or leave it completely would be answered by the behaviour and response of the British . Between 1920 and 1922 , Mahatma Gandhi led the Non-Cooperation movement : nationwide civil disobedience to oppose the Rowlatt Acts and the exclusion of Indians from the government , and the denial of political and civil freedoms . Simon commission and the Nehru Report ( edit ) In 1928 , the British government further outraged people across India by appointing a seven - man committee led by Sir John Simon , it was an all - European commission Simon Commission to deliberate on constitutional and political reforms for India . Indian political parties were neither consulted nor asked to involve themselves in the process . Upon arrival in India , Chairman Sir John Simon and other commission members were met with angry public demonstrations , which followed them everywhere . The death of a prominent Indian leader , Lala Lajpat Rai , from severe beatings by British police officials further outraged the Indian public . The Congress appointed an all - Indian commission to propose constitutional reforms for India . Members of other Indian political parties joined the commission led by Congress President Motilal Nehru . The Nehru Report demanded that India be granted self - government under the dominion status within the Empire . While most other Indian political parties supported the Nehru commission 's work , it was opposed by the Indian Liberal Party and the All India Muslim League . The British ignored the commission , its report and refused to introduce political reform . Dominion or republic ? ( edit ) But the Nehru Report was also controversial within the Congress . Younger nationalist leaders like Subhas Chandra Bose and Jawaharlal Nehru demanded that the Congress resolve to make a complete and explicit break from all ties with the British . Jawaharlal Nehru had been influenced by the idea of Bhagat Singh ( `` total independence '' ) , which Singh had introduced a resolution demanding in 1927 , which was rejected because of Gandhi 's opposition . Now Bose and Nehru opposed dominion status , which would retain the Monarch of the United Kingdom as the constitutional head of state of India ( although in the separate capacity as King of India ) , and preserve political powers for the British Parliament in Indian constitutional affairs . They were supported in their stand by a large number of rank - and - file Congressmen . In December 1928 , Congress session was held in Kolkata and Mohandas Gandhi proposed a resolution that called for the British to grant dominion status to India within two years . After Some time Gandhi brokered a further compromise by reducing the time given from two years to one . Jawaharlal Nehru voted for the new resolution , while Subhash Bose told his supporters that he would not oppose the resolution , and abstained from voting himself . The All India Congress Committee voted 118 to 45 in its favour ( the 45 votes came from supporters of a complete break from the British ) . However , when Bose introduced an amendment during the open session of Congress that sought a complete break with the British , Gandhi admonished the move : You may take the name of independence on your lips but all your muttering will be an empty formula if there is no honour behind it . If you are not prepared to stand by your words , where will independence be ? The amendment was rejected , by 1350 to 973 , and the resolution was fully adopted . On 31 October 1929 , the Viceroy of India , Lord Irwin announced that the government would meet with Indian representatives in London for a Round Table Conference . To facilitate Indian participation , Irwin met with Mohandas Gandhi , Muhammad Ali Jinnah and out - going Congress President Motilal Nehru to discuss the meeting . Gandhi asked Irwin if the conference would proceed on the basis of dominion status and Irwin said he could not assure that , resulting in the end of the meeting . The declaration ( edit ) As a result of the denial of reforms and political rights , and the persistent ignorance of Indian political parties , the Indian National Congress grew increasingly cohesive -- unified in the desire to oust the British from India completely . A very large number of Congress volunteers and delegates , members of other political parties and an especially large public gathering attended the session convened in Lahore . Despite the bitterly cold weather , Pattabhi Sitaramayya records that : The heat of passion and excitement , the resentment at the failure of negotiation , the flushing of faces on hearing the war drums -- oh , it was all in marked contrast to the weather . Jawaharlal Nehru was elected President and veteran leaders like Chakravarthi Rajagopalachari and Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel returned to the Congress Working Committee . They approved a declaration of independence , which stated : The British government in India has not only deprived the Indian people of their freedom but has based itself on the exploitation of the masses , and has ruined India economically , politically , culturally and spiritually ... Therefore ... India must sever the British connection and attain Purna Swaraj or complete independence . At midnight on New Year 's Eve , President Jawaharlal Nehru hoisted the tricolour flag of India upon the banks of the Ravi in Lahore , which later became part of Pakistan . A pledge of independence was read out , which included a readiness to withhold taxes . The massive gathering of public attending the ceremony were asked if they agreed with it , and the vast majority of people were witnessed to raise their hands in approval . One hundred seventy two Indian members of central and provincial legislatures resigned in support of the resolution and in accordance with Indian public sentiment . The Declaration of Independence was officially promulgated on 26 January 1930 . Gandhi and other Indian leaders would immediately begin the planning of a massive national non-violence would encourage the common people not to attack Britishers even if they attacked them . Subsequently , the Salt Satyagraha was initiated by Mahatma Gandhi on 12 March 1930 and what followed gave impetus to the Indian independence movement and sparked off the nationwide Non Cooperation Movement . Authorship ( edit ) There is some dispute as to who drafted the text of the declaration . Gandhi directly claimed authorship in 1940 , while other sources either cite Nehru as a major editor or attribute it to Nehru outright . Legacy ( edit ) The Congress regularly observed 26 January as the Independence Day of India -- commemorating those who campaigned for Indian independence . In 1947 , the British agreed to transfer power and political finesse to India , and 15 August became the official Independence Day . However , the new Constitution of India , as drafted and approved by the Constituent Assembly , was mandated to take effect on 26 January 1950 , to commemorate the 1930 declaration . On that day in 1950 , India became a republic . 26 January is now celebrated as Republic Day of India every year .

It is the largest and most visited museum in Mexico . Located in the area between Paseo de la Reforma and Mahatma Gandhi Street within Chapultepec Park in Mexico City , the museum contains significant archaeological and anthropological artifacts from Mexico 's pre-Columbian heritage , such as the Stone of the Sun ( or the Aztec calendar stone ) and the Aztec Xochipilli statue . The museum ( along with many other Mexican national and regional museums ) is managed by the Instituto Nacional de Antropología e Historia ( National Institute of Anthropology and History ) , or INAH . Assessments of the museum vary , with one considering it `` a national treasure and a symbol of identity . The museum is the synthesis of an ideological , scientific , and political feat . '' Octavio Paz criticized the museum 's making the Mexica ( Aztec ) hall central , saying the `` exaltation and glorification of Mexico - Tenochtitlan transforms the Museum of Anthropology into a temple .

The halls are ringed by gardens , many of which contain outdoor exhibits . The museum has 23 rooms for exhibits and covers an area of 79,700 square meters ( almost 8 hectares ) or 857,890 square feet ( almost 20 acres ) . History ( edit ) At the end of the 18th century , by order of the viceroy of Bucareli , the items that formed part of the collection by Lorenzo Boturini -- including the sculptures of Coatlicue and the Sun Stone -- were placed in the Royal and Pontifical University of Mexico , forming the core of the collection that would become the National Museum of Anthropology . On August 25 , 1790 , the Museum of Natural History was established by botanist José Longinos Martínez . During the 19th century , the museum was visited by internationally renowned scholars such as Alexander von Humboldt . In 1825 , the first Mexican president , Guadalupe Victoria , advised by the historian Lucas Alamán , established the National Mexican Museum as an autonomous institution . In 1865 , the Emperor Maximilian moved the museum to Calle de Moneda 13 , to the former location of the Casa de Moneda . In 1906 , due to the growth of the museum 's collections , Justo Sierra divided the stock of the National Museum . The natural history collections were moved to the Chopo building , which was constructed specifically to shelter permanent expositions . The museum was renamed the National Museum of Archaeology , History and Ethnography , and was re-opened September 9 , 1910 , in the presence of President Porfirio Díaz . By 1924 the stock of the museum had increased to 52,000 objects and had received more than 250,000 visitors . In December 1940 , the museum was divided again , with its historical collections being moved to the Chapultepec Castle , where they formed the Museo Nacional de Historia , focusing on the Viceroyalty of the New Spain and its progress towards modern Mexico . The remaining collection was renamed the National Museum of Anthropology , focusing on pre-Columbian Mexico and modern day Mexican ethnography . The construction of the contemporary museum building began in February 1963 in the Chapultepec park . The project was coordinated by architect Pedro Ramírez Vázquez , with assistance by Rafael Mijares Alcérreca and Jorge Campuzano . The construction of the building lasted 19 months , and was inaugurated on September 17 , 1964 , President Adolfo López Mateos , who declared : The Mexican people lift this monument in honor of the admirable cultures that flourished during the Pre-Columbian period in regions that are now territory of the Republic . In front of the testimonies of those cultures , the Mexico of today pays tribute to the indigenous people of Mexico , in whose example we recognize characteristics of our national originality . Exhibits ( edit ) Original Aztec Sunstone , available for featuring The museum 's collections include the Stone of the Sun ( depicted below ) , giant stone heads of the Olmec civilization that were found in the jungles of Tabasco and Veracruz , treasures recovered from the Mayan civilization , at the Sacred Cenote at Chichen Itza , a replica of the sarcophagal lid from Pacal 's tomb at Palenque and ethnological displays of contemporary rural Mexican life . It also has a model of the location and layout of the former Aztec capital Tenochtitlan , the site of which is now occupied by the central area of modern - day Mexico City . The permanent exhibitions on the ground floor cover all pre-Columbian civilizations located on the current territory of Mexico as well as in former Mexican territory in what is today the southwestern United States . They are classified as North , West , Mayan , Gulf of Mexico , Oaxaca , Mexico , Toltec , and Teotihuacan . The permanent expositions at the first floor show the culture of Native American population of Mexico since the Spanish colonization . The museum also hosts visiting exhibits , generally focusing on other of the world 's great cultures . Past exhibits have focused on ancient Iran , Greece , China , Egypt , Russia , and Spain .

what is a solution in a quadratic equation
Quadratic equation - wikipedia Quadratic equation Jump to : navigation , search This article is about algebraic equations of degree two and their solutions . For equations of degree four , see Quartic equation . For functions defined by a polynomial of degree two , see Quadratic function . For the case of more than one variable , see Conic section and Quadratic form . The quadratic formula for the roots of the general quadratic equation In algebra , a quadratic equation ( from the Latin quadratus for `` square '' ) is any equation having the form a x 2 + b x + c = 0 ( \ displaystyle ax ^ ( 2 ) + bx + c = 0 ) where x represents an unknown , and a , b , and c represent known numbers such that a is not equal to 0 . If a = 0 , then the equation is linear , not quadratic . The numbers a , b , and c are the coefficients of the equation , and may be distinguished by calling them , respectively , the quadratic coefficient , the linear coefficient and the constant or free term . Because the quadratic equation involves only one unknown , it is called `` univariate '' . The quadratic equation only contains powers of x that are non-negative integers , and therefore it is a polynomial equation , and in particular it is a second degree polynomial equation since the greatest power is two . Quadratic equations can be solved by a process known in American English as factoring and in other varieties of English as factorising , by completing the square , by using the quadratic formula , or by graphing . Solutions to problems equivalent to the quadratic equation were known as early as 2000 BC .

Plots of quadratic function y = ax + bx + c , varying each coefficient separately while the other coefficients are fixed ( at values a = 1 , b = 0 , c = 0 ) A quadratic equation with real or complex coefficients has two solutions , called roots . These two solutions may or may not be distinct , and they may or may not be real . Factoring by inspection ( edit ) It may be possible to express a quadratic equation ax + bx + c = 0 as a product ( px + q ) ( rx + s ) = 0 . In some cases , it is possible , by simple inspection , to determine values of p , q , r , and s that make the two forms equivalent to one another . If the quadratic equation is written in the second form , then the `` Zero Factor Property '' states that the quadratic equation is satisfied if px + q = 0 or rx + s = 0 . Solving these two linear equations provides the roots of the quadratic . For most students , factoring by inspection is the first method of solving quadratic equations to which they are exposed . If one is given a quadratic equation in the form x + bx + c = 0 , the sought factorization has the form ( x + q ) ( x + s ) , and one has to find two numbers q and s that add up to b and whose product is c ( this is sometimes called `` Vieta 's rule '' and is related to Vieta 's formulas ) . As an example , x + 5x + 6 factors as ( x + 3 ) ( x + 2 ) . The more general case where a does not equal 1 can require a considerable effort in trial and error guess - and - check , assuming that it can be factored at all by inspection . Except for special cases such as where b = 0 or c = 0 , factoring by inspection only works for quadratic equations that have rational roots . This means that the great majority of quadratic equations that arise in practical applications can not be solved by factoring by inspection . Completing the square ( edit ) Main article : Completing the square Figure 2 . For the quadratic function y = x − x − 2 , the points where the graph crosses the x-axis , x = − 1 and x = 2 , are the solutions of the quadratic equation x − x − 2 = 0 . The process of completing the square makes use of the algebraic identity x 2 + 2 h x + h 2 = ( x + h ) 2 , ( \ displaystyle x ^ ( 2 ) + 2hx + h ^ ( 2 ) = ( x + h ) ^ ( 2 ) , ) which represents a well - defined algorithm that can be used to solve any quadratic equation . Starting with a quadratic equation in standard form , ax + bx + c = 0 Divide each side by a , the coefficient of the squared term . Subtract the constant term c / a from both sides . Add the square of one - half of b / a , the coefficient of x , to both sides . This `` completes the square '' , converting the left side into a perfect square . Write the left side as a square and simplify the right side if necessary . Produce two linear equations by equating the square root of the left side with the positive and negative square roots of the right side . Solve the two linear equations . We illustrate use of this algorithm by solving 2x + 4x − 4 = 0 1 ) x 2 + 2 x − 2 = 0 ( \ displaystyle 1 ) \ x ^ ( 2 ) + 2x - 2 = 0 ) 2 ) x 2 + 2 x = 2 ( \ displaystyle 2 ) \ x ^ ( 2 ) + 2x = 2 ) 3 ) x 2 + 2 x + 1 = 2 + 1 ( \ displaystyle 3 ) \ x ^ ( 2 ) + 2x + 1 = 2 + 1 ) 4 ) ( x + 1 ) 2 = 3 ( \ displaystyle 4 ) \ \ left ( x + 1 \ right ) ^ ( 2 ) = 3 ) 5 ) x + 1 = ± 3 ( \ displaystyle 5 ) \ x + 1 = \ pm ( \ sqrt ( 3 ) ) ) 6 ) x = − 1 ± 3 ( \ displaystyle 6 ) \ x = - 1 \ pm ( \ sqrt ( 3 ) ) ) The plus - minus symbol `` ± '' indicates that both x = − 1 + √ 3 and x = − 1 − √ 3 are solutions of the quadratic equation . Quadratic formula and its derivation ( edit ) Main article : Quadratic formula Completing the square can be used to derive a general formula for solving quadratic equations , called the quadratic formula . The mathematical proof will now be briefly summarized . It can easily be seen , by polynomial expansion , that the following equation is equivalent to the quadratic equation : ( x + b 2 a ) 2 = b 2 − 4 a c 4 a 2 . ( \ displaystyle \ left ( x+ ( \ frac ( b ) ( 2a ) ) \ right ) ^ ( 2 ) = ( \ frac ( b ^ ( 2 ) - 4ac ) ( 4a ^ ( 2 ) ) ) . ) Taking the square root of both sides , and isolating x , gives : x = − b ± b 2 − 4 a c 2 a . ( \ displaystyle x = ( \ frac ( - b \ pm ( \ sqrt ( b ^ ( 2 ) - 4ac \ ) ) ) ( 2a ) ) . ) Some sources , particularly older ones , use alternative parameterizations of the quadratic equation such as ax + 2bx + c = 0 or ax − 2bx + c = 0 , where b has a magnitude one half of the more common one , possibly with opposite sign . These result in slightly different forms for the solution , but are otherwise equivalent . A number of alternative derivations can be found in the literature . These proofs are simpler than the standard completing the square method , represent interesting applications of other frequently used techniques in algebra , or offer insight into other areas of mathematics . A lesser known quadratic formula , as used in Muller 's method , and which can be found from Vieta 's formulas , provides the same roots via the equation : x = − 2 c b ± b 2 − 4 a c . ( \ displaystyle x = ( \ frac ( - 2c ) ( b \ pm ( \ sqrt ( b ^ ( 2 ) - 4ac ) ) ) ) . ) One property of this form is that it yields one valid root when a = 0 , while the other root contains division by zero , because when a = 0 , the quadratic equation becomes a linear equation , which has one root . By contrast , in this case the more common formula has a division by zero for one root and an indeterminate form 0 / 0 for the other root . On the other hand , when c = 0 , the more common formula yields two correct roots whereas this form yields the zero root and an indeterminate form 0 / 0 . Reduced quadratic equation ( edit ) It is sometimes convenient to reduce a quadratic equation so that its leading coefficient is one . This is done by dividing both sides by a , which is always possible since a is non-zero . This produces the reduced quadratic equation : x 2 + p x + q = 0 , ( \ displaystyle x ^ ( 2 ) + px + q = 0 , ) where p = b / a and q = c / a . This monic equation has the same solutions as the original . The quadratic formula for the solutions of the reduced quadratic equation , written in terms of its coefficients , is : x = 1 2 ( − p ± p 2 − 4 q ) , ( \ displaystyle x = ( \ frac ( 1 ) ( 2 ) ) \ left ( - p \ pm ( \ sqrt ( p ^ ( 2 ) - 4q ) ) \ right ) , ) or equivalently : x = − p 2 ± ( p 2 ) 2 − q . ( \ displaystyle x = - ( \ frac ( p ) ( 2 ) ) \ pm ( \ sqrt ( \ left ( ( \ frac ( p ) ( 2 ) ) \ right ) ^ ( 2 ) - q ) ) . ) Discriminant ( edit ) Figure 3 . Discriminant signs In the quadratic formula , the expression underneath the square root sign is called the discriminant of the quadratic equation , and is often represented using an upper case D or an upper case Greek delta : Δ = b 2 − 4 a c . ( \ displaystyle \ Delta = b ^ ( 2 ) - 4ac . ) A quadratic equation with real coefficients can have either one or two distinct real roots , or two distinct complex roots . In this case the discriminant determines the number and nature of the roots . There are three cases : If the discriminant is positive , then there are two distinct roots − b + Δ 2 a and − b − Δ 2 a , ( \ displaystyle ( \ frac ( - b+ ( \ sqrt ( \ Delta ) ) ) ( 2a ) ) \ quad ( \ text ( and ) ) \ quad ( \ frac ( - b - ( \ sqrt ( \ Delta ) ) ) ( 2a ) ) , ) both of which are real numbers . For quadratic equations with rational coefficients , if the discriminant is a square number , then the roots are rational -- in other cases they may be quadratic irrationals . If the discriminant is zero , then there is exactly one real root − b 2 a , ( \ displaystyle - ( \ frac ( b ) ( 2a ) ) , ) sometimes called a repeated or double root . If the discriminant is negative , then there are no real roots . Rather , there are two distinct ( non-real ) complex roots − b 2 a + i − Δ 2 a and − b 2 a − i − Δ 2 a , ( \ displaystyle ( \ frac ( - b ) ( 2a ) ) + i ( \ frac ( \ sqrt ( - \ Delta ) ) ( 2a ) ) \ quad ( \ text ( and ) ) \ quad ( \ frac ( - b ) ( 2a ) ) - i ( \ frac ( \ sqrt ( - \ Delta ) ) ( 2a ) ) , ) which are complex conjugates of each other . In these expressions i is the imaginary unit . Thus the roots are distinct if and only if the discriminant is non-zero , and the roots are real if and only if the discriminant is non-negative . Geometric interpretation ( edit ) Graph of y = ax + bx + c , where a and the discriminant b − 4ac are positive , with Roots and y - intercept in red Vertex and axis of symmetry in blue Focus and directrix in pink Visualisation of the complex roots of y = ax + bx + c : the parabola is rotated 180 ° about its vertex ( orange ) . Its x-intercepts are rotated 90 ° around their mid-point , and the Cartesian plane is interpreted as the complex plane ( green ) . The function f ( x ) = ax + bx + c is the quadratic function . The graph of any quadratic function has the same general shape , which is called a parabola . The location and size of the parabola , and how it opens , depend on the values of a , b , and c . As shown in Figure 1 , if a > 0 , the parabola has a minimum point and opens upward . If a < 0 , the parabola has a maximum point and opens downward . The extreme point of the parabola , whether minimum or maximum , corresponds to its vertex . The x-coordinate of the vertex will be located at x = − b 2 a ( \ displaystyle \ scriptstyle x = ( \ tfrac ( - b ) ( 2a ) ) ) , and the y - coordinate of the vertex may be found by substituting this x-value into the function . The y - intercept is located at the point ( 0 , c ) . The solutions of the quadratic equation ax + bx + c = 0 correspond to the roots of the function f ( x ) = ax + bx + c , since they are the values of x for which f ( x ) = 0 . As shown in Figure 2 , if a , b , and c are real numbers and the domain of f is the set of real numbers , then the roots of f are exactly the x-coordinates of the points where the graph touches the x-axis . As shown in Figure 3 , if the discriminant is positive , the graph touches the x-axis at two points ; if zero , the graph touches at one point ; and if negative , the graph does not touch the x-axis . Quadratic factorization ( edit ) The term x − r ( \ displaystyle x-r ) is a factor of the polynomial a x 2 + b x + c ( \ displaystyle ax ^ ( 2 ) + bx + c ) if and only if r is a root of the quadratic equation a x 2 + b x + c = 0 . ( \ displaystyle ax ^ ( 2 ) + bx + c = 0 . ) It follows from the quadratic formula that a x 2 + b x + c = a ( x − − b + b 2 − 4 a c 2 a ) ( x − − b − b 2 − 4 a c 2 a ) . ( \ displaystyle ax ^ ( 2 ) + bx + c = a \ left ( x - ( \ frac ( - b+ ( \ sqrt ( b ^ ( 2 ) - 4ac ) ) ) ( 2a ) ) \ right ) \ left ( x - ( \ frac ( - b - ( \ sqrt ( b ^ ( 2 ) - 4ac ) ) ) ( 2a ) ) \ right ) . ) In the special case b = 4ac where the quadratic has only one distinct root ( i.e. the discriminant is zero ) , the quadratic polynomial can be factored as a x 2 + b x + c = a ( x + b 2 a ) 2 . ( \ displaystyle ax ^ ( 2 ) + bx + c = a \ left ( x+ ( \ frac ( b ) ( 2a ) ) \ right ) ^ ( 2 ) . ) Graphing for real roots ( edit ) Figure 4 .

Although the display shows only five significant figures of accuracy , the retrieved value of xc is 0.732050807569 , accurate to twelve significant figures . For most of the 20th century , graphing was rarely mentioned as a method for solving quadratic equations in high school or college algebra texts . Students learned to solve quadratic equations by factoring , completing the square , and applying the quadratic formula . Recently , graphing calculators have become common in schools and graphical methods have started to appear in textbooks , but they are generally not highly emphasized . Being able to use a graphing calculator to solve a quadratic equation requires the ability to produce a graph of y = f ( x ) , the ability to scale the graph appropriately to the dimensions of the graphing surface , and the recognition that when f ( x ) = 0 , x is a solution to the equation . The skills required to solve a quadratic equation on a calculator are in fact applicable to finding the real roots of any arbitrary function . Since an arbitrary function may cross the x-axis at multiple points , graphing calculators generally require one to identify the desired root by positioning a cursor at a `` guessed '' value for the root . ( Some graphing calculators require bracketing the root on both sides of the zero . ) The calculator then proceeds , by an iterative algorithm , to refine the estimated position of the root to the limit of calculator accuracy . Avoiding loss of significance ( edit ) Although the quadratic formula provides an exact solution , the result is not exact if real numbers are approximated during the computation , as usual in numerical analysis , where real numbers are approximated by floating point numbers ( called `` reals '' in many programming languages ) . In this context , the quadratic formula is not completely stable . This occurs when the roots have different order of magnitude , or , equivalently , when b and b − 4ac are close in magnitude . In this case , the subtraction of two nearly equal numbers will cause loss of significance or catastrophic cancellation in the smaller root . To avoid this , the root that is smaller in magnitude , r , can be computed as ( c / a ) / R ( \ displaystyle ( c / a ) / R ) where R is the root that is bigger in magnitude . A second form of cancellation can occur between the terms b and 4ac of the discriminant , that is when the two roots are very close . This can lead to loss of up to half of correct significant figures in the roots . Examples and applications ( edit ) The trajectory of the cliff jumper is parabolic because horizontal displacement is a linear function of time x = v x t ( \ displaystyle x = v_ ( x ) t ) , while vertical displacement is a quadratic function of time y = 1 2 a t 2 + v y t + h ( \ displaystyle y = ( \ tfrac ( 1 ) ( 2 ) ) at ^ ( 2 ) + v_ ( y ) t + h ) . As a result , the path follows quadratic equation y = a 2 v x 2 x 2 + v y v x x + h ( \ displaystyle y = ( \ tfrac ( a ) ( 2v_ ( x ) ^ ( 2 ) ) ) x ^ ( 2 ) + ( \ tfrac ( v_ ( y ) ) ( v_ ( x ) ) ) x + h ) , where v x ( \ displaystyle v_ ( x ) ) and v y ( \ displaystyle v_ ( y ) ) are horizontal and vertical components of the original velocity , a is gravitational acceleration and h is original height . The a value should be considered negative here , as its direction ( downwards ) is opposite to the height measurement ( upwards ) . The golden ratio is found as the solution of the quadratic equation x 2 − x − 1 = 0 . ( \ displaystyle x ^ ( 2 ) - x-1 = 0 . ) The equations of the circle and the other conic sections -- ellipses , parabolas , and hyperbolas -- are quadratic equations in two variables . Given the cosine or sine of an angle , finding the cosine or sine of the angle that is half as large involves solving a quadratic equation . The process of simplifying expressions involving the square root of an expression involving the square root of another expression involves finding the two solutions of a quadratic equation . Descartes ' theorem states that for every four kissing ( mutually tangent ) circles , their radii satisfy a particular quadratic equation . The equation given by Fuss ' theorem , giving the relation among the radius of a bicentric quadrilateral 's inscribed circle , the radius of its circumscribed circle , and the distance between the centers of those circles , can be expressed as a quadratic equation for which the distance between the two circles ' centers in terms of their radii is one of the solutions . The other solution of the same equation in terms of the relevant radii gives the distance between the circumscribed circle 's center and the center of the excircle of an ex-tangential quadrilateral . History ( edit ) Babylonian mathematicians , as early as 2000 BC ( displayed on Old Babylonian clay tablets ) could solve problems relating the areas and sides of rectangles . There is evidence dating this algorithm as far back as the Third Dynasty of Ur . In modern notation , the problems typically involved solving a pair of simultaneous equations of the form : x + y = p , x y = q ( \ displaystyle x + y = p , \ \ xy = q ) which are equivalent to the equation : x 2 + q = p x ( \ displaystyle x ^ ( 2 ) + q = px ) The steps given by Babylonian scribes for solving the above rectangle problem were as follows : Compute half of p . Square the result . Subtract q . Find the square root using a table of squares . Add together the results of steps ( 1 ) and ( 4 ) to give x . This is essentially equivalent to calculating x = p 2 + ( p 2 ) 2 − q ( \ displaystyle x = ( \ frac ( p ) ( 2 ) ) + ( \ sqrt ( \ left ( ( \ frac ( p ) ( 2 ) ) \ right ) ^ ( 2 ) - q ) ) ) Geometric methods were used to solve quadratic equations in Babylonia , Egypt , Greece , China , and India . The Egyptian Berlin Papyrus , dating back to the Middle Kingdom ( 2050 BC to 1650 BC ) , contains the solution to a two - term quadratic equation . In the Indian Sulba Sutras , circa 8th century BC , quadratic equations of the form ax = c and ax + bx = c were explored using geometric methods . Babylonian mathematicians from circa 400 BC and Chinese mathematicians from circa 200 BC used geometric methods of dissection to solve quadratic equations with positive roots . Rules for quadratic equations were given in The Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art , a Chinese treatise on mathematics . These early geometric methods do not appear to have had a general formula . Euclid , the Greek mathematician , produced a more abstract geometrical method around 300 BC . With a purely geometric approach Pythagoras and Euclid created a general procedure to find solutions of the quadratic equation . In his work Arithmetica , the Greek mathematician Diophantus solved the quadratic equation , but giving only one root , even when both roots were positive . In 628 AD , Brahmagupta , an Indian mathematician , gave the first explicit ( although still not completely general ) solution of the quadratic equation ax + bx = c as follows : `` To the absolute number multiplied by four times the ( coefficient of the ) square , add the square of the ( coefficient of the ) middle term ; the square root of the same , less the ( coefficient of the ) middle term , being divided by twice the ( coefficient of the ) square is the value . '' ( Brahmasphutasiddhanta , Colebrook translation , 1817 , page 346 ) This is equivalent to : x = 4 a c + b 2 − b 2 a . ( \ displaystyle x = ( \ frac ( ( \ sqrt ( 4ac + b ^ ( 2 ) ) ) - b ) ( 2a ) ) . ) The Bakhshali Manuscript written in India in the 7th century AD contained an algebraic formula for solving quadratic equations , as well as quadratic indeterminate equations ( originally of type ax / c = y Muhammad ibn Musa al - Khwarizmi ( Persia , 9th century ) , inspired by Brahmagupta , developed a set of formulas that worked for positive solutions . Al - Khwarizmi goes further in providing a full solution to the general quadratic equation , accepting one or two numerical answers for every quadratic equation , while providing geometric proofs in the process . He also described the method of completing the square and recognized that the discriminant must be positive , which was proven by his contemporary ' Abd al - Hamīd ibn Turk ( Central Asia , 9th century ) who gave geometric figures to prove that if the discriminant is negative , a quadratic equation has no solution . While al - Khwarizmi himself did not accept negative solutions , later Islamic mathematicians that succeeded him accepted negative solutions , as well as irrational numbers as solutions . Abū Kāmil Shujā ibn Aslam ( Egypt , 10th century ) in particular was the first to accept irrational numbers ( often in the form of a square root , cube root or fourth root ) as solutions to quadratic equations or as coefficients in an equation . The 9th century Indian mathematician Sridhara wrote down rules for solving quadratic equations . The Jewish mathematician Abraham bar Hiyya Ha - Nasi ( 12th century , Spain ) authored the first European book to include the full solution to the general quadratic equation . His solution was largely based on Al - Khwarizmi 's work . The writing of the Chinese mathematician Yang Hui ( 1238 -- 1298 AD ) is the first known one in which quadratic equations with negative coefficients of ' x ' appear , although he attributes this to the earlier Liu Yi . By 1545 Gerolamo Cardano compiled the works related to the quadratic equations . The quadratic formula covering all cases was first obtained by Simon Stevin in 1594 . In 1637 René Descartes published La Géométrie containing the quadratic formula in the form we know today . The first appearance of the general solution in the modern mathematical literature appeared in an 1896 paper by Henry Heaton . Advanced topics ( edit ) Alternative methods of root calculation ( edit ) Vieta 's formulas ( edit ) Main article : Vieta 's formulas Figure 5 . Graph of the difference between Vieta 's approximation for the smaller of the two roots of the quadratic equation x + bx + c = 0 compared with the value calculated using the quadratic formula . Vieta 's approximation is inaccurate for small b but is accurate for large b . The direct evaluation using the quadratic formula is accurate for small b with roots of comparable value but experiences loss of significance errors for large b and widely spaced roots . The difference between Vieta 's approximation versus the direct computation reaches a minimum at the large dots , and rounding causes squiggles in the curves beyond this minimum . Vieta 's formulas give a simple relation between the roots of a polynomial and its coefficients . In the case of the quadratic polynomial , they take the following form : x 1 + x 2 = − b a ( \ displaystyle x_ ( 1 ) + x_ ( 2 ) = - ( \ frac ( b ) ( a ) ) ) and x 1 x 2 = c a . ( \ displaystyle x_ ( 1 ) \ x_ ( 2 ) = ( \ frac ( c ) ( a ) ) . ) These results follow immediately from the relation : ( x − x 1 ) ( x − x 2 ) = x 2 − ( x 1 + x 2 ) x + x 1 x 2 = 0 , ( \ displaystyle \ left ( x-x_ ( 1 ) \ right ) \ \ left ( x-x_ ( 2 ) \ right ) = x ^ ( 2 ) \ - \ left ( x_ ( 1 ) + x_ ( 2 ) \ right ) x + x_ ( 1 ) x_ ( 2 ) = 0 , ) which can be compared term by term with x 2 + ( b / a ) x + c / a = 0 . ( \ displaystyle x ^ ( 2 ) + ( b / a ) x + c / a = 0 . ) The first formula above yields a convenient expression when graphing a quadratic function . Since the graph is symmetric with respect to a vertical line through the vertex , when there are two real roots the vertex 's x-coordinate is located at the average of the roots ( or intercepts ) . Thus the x-coordinate of the vertex is given by the expression x V = x 1 + x 2 2 = − b 2 a . ( \ displaystyle x_ ( V ) = ( \ frac ( x_ ( 1 ) + x_ ( 2 ) ) ( 2 ) ) = - ( \ frac ( b ) ( 2a ) ) . ) The y - coordinate can be obtained by substituting the above result into the given quadratic equation , giving y V = − b 2 4 a + c = − b 2 − 4 a c 4 a . ( \ displaystyle y_ ( V ) = - ( \ frac ( b ^ ( 2 ) ) ( 4a ) ) + c = - ( \ frac ( b ^ ( 2 ) - 4ac ) ( 4a ) ) . ) As a practical matter , Vieta 's formulas provide a useful method for finding the roots of a quadratic in the case where one root is much smaller than the other . If x < < x , then x + x ≈ x , and we have the estimate : x 1 ≈ − b a . ( \ displaystyle x_ ( 1 ) \ approx - ( \ frac ( b ) ( a ) ) . ) The second Vieta 's formula then provides : x 2 = c a x 1 ≈ − c b . ( \ displaystyle x_ ( 2 ) = ( \ frac ( c ) ( a \ x_ ( 1 ) ) ) \ approx - ( \ frac ( c ) ( b ) ) . ) These formulas are much easier to evaluate than the quadratic formula under the condition of one large and one small root , because the quadratic formula evaluates the small root as the difference of two very nearly equal numbers ( the case of large b ) , which causes round - off error in a numerical evaluation . Figure 5 shows the difference between ( i ) a direct evaluation using the quadratic formula ( accurate when the roots are near each other in value ) and ( ii ) an evaluation based upon the above approximation of Vieta 's formulas ( accurate when the roots are widely spaced ) . As the linear coefficient b increases , initially the quadratic formula is accurate , and the approximate formula improves in accuracy , leading to a smaller difference between the methods as b increases . However , at some point the quadratic formula begins to lose accuracy because of round off error , while the approximate method continues to improve . Consequently , the difference between the methods begins to increase as the quadratic formula becomes worse and worse . This situation arises commonly in amplifier design , where widely separated roots are desired to ensure a stable operation ( see step response ) . Trigonometric solution ( edit ) In the days before calculators , people would use mathematical tables -- lists of numbers showing the results of calculation with varying arguments -- to simplify and speed up computation . Tables of logarithms and trigonometric functions were common in math and science textbooks . Specialized tables were published for applications such as astronomy , celestial navigation and statistics . Methods of numerical approximation existed , called prosthaphaeresis , that offered shortcuts around time - consuming operations such as multiplication and taking powers and roots . Astronomers , especially , were concerned with methods that could speed up the long series of computations involved in celestial mechanics calculations . It is within this context that we may understand the development of means of solving quadratic equations by the aid of trigonometric substitution . Consider the following alternate form of the quadratic equation , ( 1 ) a x 2 + b x ± c = 0 , ( \ displaystyle ax ^ ( 2 ) + bx \ pm c = 0 , ) where the sign of the ± symbol is chosen so that a and c may both be positive . By substituting ( 2 ) x = c / a tan ⁡ θ ( \ displaystyle x = ( \ sqrt ( c / a ) ) \ tan \ theta ) and then multiplying through by cos θ , we obtain ( 3 ) sin 2 ⁡ θ + b a c sin ⁡ θ cos ⁡ θ ± cos 2 ⁡ θ = 0 . ( \ displaystyle \ sin ^ ( 2 ) \ theta + ( \ frac ( b ) ( \ sqrt ( ac ) ) ) \ sin \ theta \ cos \ theta \ pm \ cos ^ ( 2 ) \ theta = 0 . ) Introducing functions of 2θ and rearranging , we obtain ( 4 ) tan ⁡ 2 θ n = + 2 a c b , ( \ displaystyle \ tan 2 \ theta _ ( n ) = + 2 ( \ frac ( \ sqrt ( ac ) ) ( b ) ) , ) ( 5 ) sin ⁡ 2 θ p = − 2 a c b , ( \ displaystyle \ sin 2 \ theta _ ( p ) = - 2 ( \ frac ( \ sqrt ( ac ) ) ( b ) ) , ) where the subscripts n and p correspond , respectively , to the use of a negative or positive sign in equation ( 1 ) . Substituting the two values of θ or θ found from equations ( 4 ) or ( 5 ) into ( 2 ) gives the required roots of ( 1 ) . Complex roots occur in the solution based on equation ( 5 ) if the absolute value of sin 2θ exceeds unity . The amount of effort involved in solving quadratic equations using this mixed trigonometric and logarithmic table look - up strategy was two - thirds the effort using logarithmic tables alone . Calculating complex roots would require using a different trigonometric form . To illustrate , let us assume we had available seven - place logarithm and trigonometric tables , and wished to solve the following to six - significant - figure accuracy : 4.16130 x 2 + 9.15933 x − 11.4207 = 0 ( \ displaystyle 4.16130 x ^ ( 2 ) + 9.15933 x-11.4207 = 0 ) A seven - place lookup table might have only 100,000 entries , and computing intermediate results to seven places would generally require interpolation between adjacent entries . log ⁡ a = 0.6192290 , log ⁡ b = 0.9618637 , log ⁡ c = 1.0576927 ( \ displaystyle \ log a = 0.6192290 , \ log b = 0.9618637 , \ log c = 1.0576927 ) 2 a c / b = 2 × 10 ( 0.6192290 + 1.0576927 ) / 2 − 0.9618637 = 1.505314 ( \ displaystyle 2 ( \ sqrt ( ac ) ) / b = 2 \ times 10 ^ ( ( 0.6192290 + 1.0576927 ) / 2 - 0.9618637 ) = 1.505314 ) θ = ( tan − 1 ⁡ 1.505314 ) / 2 = 28.20169 ∘ or − 61.79831 ∘ ( \ displaystyle \ theta = ( \ tan ^ ( - 1 ) 1.505314 ) / 2 = 28.20169 ^ ( \ circ ) ( \ text ( or ) ) - 61.79831 ^ ( \ circ ) ) log ⁡ tan ⁡ θ = − 0.2706462 or 0.2706462 ( \ displaystyle \ log \ tan \ theta = - 0.2706462 ( \ text ( or ) ) 0.2706462 ) log ⁡ c / a = ( 1.0576927 − 0.6192290 ) / 2 = 0.2192318 ( \ displaystyle \ log ( \ sqrt ( c / a ) ) = ( 1.0576927 - 0.6192290 ) / 2 = 0.2192318 ) x 1 = 10 0.2192318 − 0.2706462 = 0.888353 ( \ displaystyle x_ ( 1 ) = 10 ^ ( 0.2192318 - 0.2706462 ) = 0.888353 ) ( rounded to six significant figures ) x 2 = − 10 0.2192318 + 0.2706462 = − 3.08943 ( \ displaystyle x_ ( 2 ) = - 10 ^ ( 0.2192318 + 0.2706462 ) = - 3.08943 ) Solution for complex roots in polar coordinates ( edit ) If the quadratic equation a x 2 + b x + c = 0 ( \ displaystyle ax ^ ( 2 ) + bx + c = 0 ) with real coefficients has two complex roots -- the case where b 2 − 4 a c < 0 , ( \ displaystyle b ^ ( 2 ) - 4ac < 0 , ) requiring a and c to have the same sign as each other -- then the solutions for the roots can be expressed in polar form as x 1 , x 2 = r ( cos ⁡ θ ± i sin ⁡ θ ) , ( \ displaystyle x_ ( 1 ) , \ , x_ ( 2 ) = r ( \ cos \ theta \ pm i \ sin \ theta ) , ) where r = c a ( \ displaystyle r = ( \ sqrt ( \ tfrac ( c ) ( a ) ) ) ) and θ = cos − 1 ⁡ ( − b 2 a c ) . ( \ displaystyle \ theta = \ cos ^ ( - 1 ) \ left ( ( \ tfrac ( - b ) ( 2 ( \ sqrt ( ac ) ) ) ) \ right ) . ) Geometric solution ( edit ) Figure 6 . Geometric solution of ax + bx + c = 0 using Lill 's method . Solutions are − AX1 / SA , − AX2 / SA The quadratic equation may be solved geometrically in a number of ways . One way is via Lill 's method . The three coefficients a , b , c are drawn with right angles between them as in SA , AB , and BC in Figure 6 . A circle is drawn with the start and end point SC as a diameter . If this cuts the middle line AB of the three then the equation has a solution , and the solutions are given by negative of the distance along this line from A divided by the first coefficient a or SA . If a is 1 the coefficients may be read off directly . Thus the solutions in the diagram are − AX1 / SA and − AX2 / SA . Carlyle circle of the quadratic equation x − sx + p = 0 . The Carlyle circle , named after Thomas Carlyle , has the property that the solutions of the quadratic equation are the horizontal coordinates of the intersections of the circle with the horizontal axis . Carlyle circles have been used to develop ruler - and - compass constructions of regular polygons . Generalization of quadratic equation ( edit ) The formula and its derivation remain correct if the coefficients a , b and c are complex numbers , or more generally members of any field whose characteristic is not 2 . ( In a field of characteristic 2 , the element 2a is zero and it is impossible to divide by it . ) The symbol ± b 2 − 4 a c ( \ displaystyle \ pm ( \ sqrt ( b ^ ( 2 ) - 4ac ) ) ) in the formula should be understood as `` either of the two elements whose square is b − 4ac , if such elements exist '' . In some fields , some elements have no square roots and some have two ; only zero has just one square root , except in fields of characteristic 2 . Even if a field does not contain a square root of some number , there is always a quadratic extension field which does , so the quadratic formula will always make sense as a formula in that extension field . Characteristic 2 ( edit ) In a field of characteristic 2 , the quadratic formula , which relies on 2 being a unit , does not hold . Consider the monic quadratic polynomial x 2 + b x + c ( \ displaystyle x ^ ( 2 ) + bx + c ) over a field of characteristic 2 . If b = 0 , then the solution reduces to extracting a square root , so the solution is x = c ( \ displaystyle x = ( \ sqrt ( c ) ) ) and there is only one root since − c = − c + 2 c = c . ( \ displaystyle - ( \ sqrt ( c ) ) = - ( \ sqrt ( c ) ) + 2 ( \ sqrt ( c ) ) = ( \ sqrt ( c ) ) . ) In summary , x 2 + c = ( x + c ) 2 . ( \ displaystyle \ displaystyle x ^ ( 2 ) + c = ( x+ ( \ sqrt ( c ) ) ) ^ ( 2 ) . ) See quadratic residue for more information about extracting square roots in finite fields . In the case that b ≠ 0 , there are two distinct roots , but if the polynomial is irreducible , they can not be expressed in terms of square roots of numbers in the coefficient field . Instead , define the 2 - root R ( c ) of c to be a root of the polynomial x + x + c , an element of the splitting field of that polynomial . One verifies that R ( c ) + 1 is also a root . In terms of the 2 - root operation , the two roots of the ( non-monic ) quadratic ax + bx + c are b a R ( a c b 2 ) ( \ displaystyle ( \ frac ( b ) ( a ) ) R \ left ( ( \ frac ( ac ) ( b ^ ( 2 ) ) ) \ right ) ) and b a ( R ( a c b 2 ) + 1 ) . ( \ displaystyle ( \ frac ( b ) ( a ) ) \ left ( R \ left ( ( \ frac ( ac ) ( b ^ ( 2 ) ) ) \ right ) + 1 \ right ) . ) For example , let a denote a multiplicative generator of the group of units of F , the Galois field of order four ( thus a and a + 1 are roots of x + x + 1 over F. Because ( a + 1 ) = a , a + 1 is the unique solution of the quadratic equation x + a = 0 . On the other hand , the polynomial x + ax + 1 is irreducible over F , but it splits over F , where it has the two roots ab and ab + a , where b is a root of x + x + a in F . This is a special case of Artin -- Schreier theory .

The Starry Night - Wikipedia The Starry Night Jump to : navigation , search `` Starry Night '' redirects here . For other uses , see Starry Night ( disambiguation ) . This article is about the 1889 painting . For the similar 1888 Van Gogh painting , see Starry Night Over the Rhône . <Th_colspan="2"> The Starry Night <Td_colspan="2"> Artist Vincent van Gogh Year 1889 Catalogue F612 JH1731 Medium Oil on canvas 73.7 cm × 92.1 cm ( 29 in × 36 ⁄ in ) Location Museum of Modern Art , New York City The Starry Night is an oil on canvas by the Dutch post-impressionist painter Vincent van Gogh . Painted in June 1889 , it depicts the view from the east - facing window of his asylum room at Saint - Rémy - de-Provence , just before sunrise , with the addition of an idealized village . It has been in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York City since 1941 , acquired through the Lillie P. Bliss Bequest . It is regarded as among Van Gogh 's finest works , and is one of the most recognized paintings in the history of Western culture . Contents ( hide ) 1 The asylum 2 The painting 3 Interpretations 4 Provenance 5 Painting materials 6 Popular culture 7 See also 8 References 9 External links The asylum ( edit ) The Monastery of Saint - Paul de Mausole In the aftermath of the 23 December 1888 breakdown that resulted in the self - mutilation of his left ear , Van Gogh voluntarily admitted himself to the Saint - Paul - de-Mausole lunatic asylum on 8 May 1889 . Housed in a former monastery , Saint - Paul - de-Mausole catered to the wealthy and was less than half full when Van Gogh arrived , allowing him to occupy not only a second - story bedroom but also a ground - floor room for use as a painting studio . During the year Van Gogh stayed at the asylum , the prolific output of paintings he had begun in Arles continued . During this period , he produced some of the best - known works of his career , including the Irises from May 1889 , now in the J. Paul Getty Museum , and the blue self - portrait from September , 1889 , in the Musée d'Orsay . The Starry Night was painted mid-June by around 18 June , the date he wrote to his brother Theo to say he had a new study of a starry sky . The painting ( edit ) Although The Starry Night was painted during the day in Van Gogh 's ground - floor studio , it would be inaccurate to state that the picture was painted from memory . The view has been identified as the one from his bedroom window , facing east , a view which Van Gogh painted variations of no fewer than twenty - one times , including The Starry Night . `` Through the iron - barred window , '' he wrote to his brother , Theo , around 23 May 1889 , `` I can see an enclosed square of wheat ... above which , in the morning , I watch the sun rise in all its glory . '' Van Gogh depicted the view at different times of day and under various weather conditions , including sunrise , moonrise , sunshine - filled days , overcast days , windy days , and one day with rain . While the hospital staff did not allow Van Gogh to paint in his bedroom , he was able there to make sketches in ink or charcoal on paper ; eventually he would base newer variations on previous versions . The pictorial element uniting all of these paintings is the diagonal line coming in from the right depicting the low rolling hills of the Alpilles mountains . In fifteen of the twenty - one versions , cypress trees are visible beyond the far wall enclosing the wheat field . Van Gogh telescoped the view in six of these paintings , most notably in F717 Wheat Field with Cypresses and The Starry Night , bringing the trees closer to the picture plane . One of the first paintings of the view was F611 Mountainous Landscape Behind Saint - Rémy , now in Copenhagen . Van Gogh made a number of sketches for the painting , of which F1547 The Enclosed Wheatfield After a Storm is typical . It is unclear whether the painting was made in his studio or outside . In his June 9 letter describing it , he mentions he had been working outside for a few days . Van Gogh described the second of the two landscapes he mentions he was working on , in a letter to his sister Wil on 16 June 1889 . This is F719 Green Field , now in Prague , and the first painting at the asylum he definitely painted outside en plein air . F1548 Wheat field , Saint - Rémy de Provence , now in New York , is a study for it . Two days later , Vincent wrote Theo that he had painted `` a starry sky '' . The Starry Night is the only nocturne in the series of views from his bedroom window . In early June , Vincent wrote to Theo , `` This morning I saw the countryside from my window a long time before sunrise with nothing but the morning star , which looked very big '' Researchers have determined that Venus was indeed visible at dawn in Provence in the spring of 1889 , and was at that time nearly as bright as possible . So the brightest `` star '' in the painting , just to the viewer 's right of the cypress tree , is actually Venus . The moon is stylized , as astronomical records indicate that it actually was waning gibbous at the time Van Gogh painted the picture , and even if the phase of the moon had been its waning crescent at the time , Van Gogh 's moon would not have been astronomically correct . ( For other interpretations of the moon , see below . ) The one pictorial element that was definitely not visible from Van Gogh 's cell is the village , which is based on a sketch F1541v made from a hillside above the village of Saint - Rémy . Pickvance thought F1541v was done later , and the steeple more Dutch than Provençal , a conflation of several Van Gogh had painted and drawn in his Nuenen period , and thus the first of his `` reminisces of the North '' he was to paint and draw early the following year . Hulsker thought a landscape on the reverse F1541r was also a study for the painting .

After reporting that he had painted a starry sky in June , Van Gogh next mentioned the painting in a letter to Theo on or about 20 September 1889 , when he included it in a list of paintings he was sending to his brother in Paris , referring to it as a `` night study . '' Of this list of paintings , he wrote , `` All in all the only things I consider a little good in it are the Wheatfield , the Mountain , the Orchard , the Olive trees with the blue hills and the Portrait and the Entrance to the quarry , and the rest says nothing to me '' ; `` the rest '' would include The Starry Night . When he decided to hold back three paintings from this batch in order to save money on postage , The Starry Night was one of the paintings he did n't send . Finally , in a letter to painter Émile Bernard from late November 1889 , Van Gogh referred to the painting as a `` failure . '' Van Gogh argued with Bernard and , especially , Paul Gauguin as to whether one should paint from nature , as Van Gogh preferred , or paint what Gauguin called `` abstractions '' : paintings conceived in the imagination , or de tête . In the letter to Bernard , Van Gogh recounted his experiences when Gauguin lived with him for nine weeks in the fall and winter of 1888 : `` When Gauguin was in Arles , I once or twice allowed myself to be led astray into abstraction , as you know ... But that was delusion , dear friend , and one soon comes up against a brick wall ... And yet , once again I allowed myself to be led astray into reaching for stars that are too big -- another failure -- and I have had my fill of that . '' Van Gogh here is referring to the expressionistic swirls which dominate the upper center portion of The Starry Night . Theo referred to these pictorial elements in a letter to Vincent dated 22 October 1889 : `` I clearly sense what preoccupies you in the new canvases like the village in the moonlight ( The Starry Night ) or the mountains , but I feel that the search for style takes away the real sentiment of things . '' Vincent responded in early November , `` Despite what you say in your previous letter , that the search for style often harms other qualities , the fact is that I feel myself greatly driven to seek style , if you like , but I mean by that a more manly and more deliberate drawing . If that will make me more like Bernard or Gauguin , I ca n't do anything about it . But am inclined to believe that in the long run you 'd get used to it . '' And later in the same letter , he wrote , `` I know very well that the studies drawn with long , sinuous lines from the last consignment were n't what they ought to become , however I dare urge you to believe that in landscapes one will continue to mass things by means of a drawing style that seeks to express the entanglement of the masses . '' But although Van Gogh periodically defended the practices of Gauguin and Bernard , each time he inevitably repudiated them and continued with his preferred method of painting from nature . Like the impressionists he had met in Paris , especially Claude Monet , Van Gogh also favored working in series . He had painted his series of sunflowers in Arles , and he painted the series of cypresses and wheat fields at Saint - Rémy . The Starry Night belongs to this latter series , as well as to a small series of nocturnes he initiated in Arles . Starry Night Over the Rhône , 1888 , oil on canvas The nocturne series was limited by the difficulties posed by painting such scenes from nature , i.e. , at night . The first painting in the series was Café Terrace at Night , painted in Arles in early September 1888 , followed by Starry Night Over the Rhone later that same month . Van Gogh 's written statements concerning these paintings provide further insight into his intentions for painting night studies in general and The Starry Night in particular . Soon after his arrival in Arles in February 1888 , Van Gogh wrote to Theo , `` I ... need a starry night with cypresses or -- perhaps above a field of ripe wheat ; there are some really beautiful nights here . '' That same week , he wrote to Bernard , `` A starry sky is something I should like to try to do , just as in the daytime I am going to try to paint a green meadow spangled with dandelions . '' He compared the stars to dots on a map and mused that , as one takes a train to travel on earth , `` we take death to reach a star . '' Although at this point in his life Van Gogh was disillusioned by religion , he appears not to have lost his belief in an afterlife . He voiced this ambivalence in a letter to Theo after having painted Starry Night Over the Rhone , confessing to a `` tremendous need for , shall I say the word -- for religion -- so I go outside at night to paint the stars . '' He wrote about existing in another dimension after death and associated this dimension with the night sky . `` It would be so simple and would account so much for the terrible things in life , which now amaze and wound us so , if life had yet another hemisphere , invisible it is true , but where one lands when one dies . '' `` Hope is in the stars , '' he wrote , but he was quick to point out that `` earth is a planet too , and consequently a star , or celestial orb . '' And he stated flatly that The Starry Night was `` not a return to the romantic or to religious ideas . '' Noted art historian Meyer Schapiro highlights the expressionistic aspects of The Starry Night , saying it was created under the `` pressure of feeling '' and that it is a `` visionary ( painting ) inspired by a religious mood . '' Schapiro theorizes that the `` hidden content '' of the work makes reference to the New Testament book of Revelation , revealing an `` apocalyptic theme of the woman in pain of birth , girded with the sun and moon and crowned with stars , whose newborn child is threatened by the dragon . '' ( Schapiro , in the same volume , also professes to see an image of a mother and child in the clouds in Landscape with Olive Trees , painted at the same time and often regarded as a pendant to The Starry Night . ) Art historian Sven Loevgren expands on Schapiro 's approach , again calling The Starry Night a `` visionary painting '' which `` was conceived in a state of great agitation . '' He writes of the `` hallucinatory character of the painting and its violently expressive form , '' although he takes pains to note that the painting was not executed during one of Van Gogh 's incapacitating breakdowns . Loevgren compares Van Gogh 's `` religiously inclined longing for the beyond '' to the poetry of Walt Whitman . He calls The Starry Night `` an infinitely expressive picture which symbolizes the final absorption of the artist by the cosmos '' and which `` gives a never - to - be-forgotten sensation of standing on the threshold of eternity . '' Loevgren praises Schapiro 's `` eloquent interpretation '' of the painting as an apocalyptic vision and advances his own symbolist theory with reference to the eleven stars in one of Joseph 's dreams in the Old Testament book of Genesis . Loevgren asserts that the pictorial elements of The Starry Night `` are visualized in purely symbolic terms '' and notes that `` the cypress is the tree of death in the Mediterranean countries . '' The drawing Cypresses in Starry Night , a reed pen copy executed by Van Gogh after the painting in 1889 . Originally held at Kunsthalle Bremen , today part of the disputed Baldin Collection . Art historian Lauren Soth also finds a symbolist subtext in The Starry Night , saying that the painting is a `` traditional religious subject in disguise '' and a `` sublimated image of ( Van Gogh 's ) deepest religious feelings . '' Citing Van Gogh 's avowed admiration for the paintings of Eugène Delacroix , and especially the earlier painter 's use of Prussian blue and citron yellow in paintings of Christ , Soth theorizes that Van Gogh used these colors to represent Christ in The Starry Night . He criticizes Schapiro 's and Loevgren 's biblical interpretations , dependent as they are on a reading of the crescent moon as incorporating elements of the sun . He says it is merely a crescent moon , which , he writes , also had symbolic meaning for Van Gogh , representing `` consolation . '' It is in light of such symbolist interpretations of The Starry Night that art historian Albert Boime presents his study of the painting . As noted above , Boime has proven that the painting depicts not only the topographical elements of Van Gogh 's view from his asylum window but also the celestial elements , identifying not only Venus but also the constellation Aries . He suggests that Van Gogh originally intended to paint a gibbous moon but `` reverted to a more traditional image '' of the crescent moon , and theorizes that the bright aureole around the resulting crescent is a remnant of the original gibbous version . He recounts Van Gogh 's interest in the writings of Victor Hugo and Jules Verne as possible inspiration for his belief in an afterlife on stars or planets . And he provides a detailed discussion of the well - publicized advances in astronomy that took place during Van Gogh 's lifetime . Boime asserts that while Van Gogh never mentioned astronomer Camille Flammarion in his letters , he believes that Van Gogh must have been aware of Flammarion 's popular illustrated publications , which included drawings of spiral nebulae ( as galaxies were then called ) as seen and photographed through telescopes . Boime interprets the swirling figure in the central portion of the sky in The Starry Night to represent either a spiral galaxy or a comet , photographs of which had also been published in popular media . He asserts that the only non-realistic elements of the painting are the village and the swirls in the sky . These swirls represent Van Gogh 's understanding of the cosmos as a living , dynamic place . Harvard astronomer Charles A. Whitney conducted his own astronomical study of The Starry Night contemporaneously with but independent of Boime ( who spent almost his entire career at U.C.L.A. ) . While Whitney does not share Boime 's certainty with regard to the constellation Aries , he concurs with Boime on the visibility of Venus in Provence at the time the painting was executed . He also sees the depiction of a spiral galaxy in the sky , although he gives credit for the original to Anglo - Irish astronomer William Parsons , Lord Rosse , whose work Flammarion reproduced . Sketch of the Whirlpool Galaxy by Lord Rosse in 1845 , 44 years before Van Gogh 's painting Whitney also theorizes that the swirls in the sky could represent wind , evoking the mistral that had such a profound effect on Van Gogh during the twenty - seven months he spent in Provence . ( It was the mistral which triggered his first breakdown after entering the asylum , in July 1889 , less than a month after painting The Starry Night . ) Boime theorizes that the lighter shades of blue just above the horizon show the first light of morning . The village has been variously identified as either a recollection of Van Gogh 's Dutch homeland . or based on a sketch he made of the town of Saint - Rémy . In either case , it is an imaginary component of the picture , not visible from the window of the asylum bedroom . Cypress trees have long been associated with death in European culture , though the question of whether Van Gogh intended for them to have such a symbolic meaning in The Starry Night is the subject of an open debate . In an April 1888 , letter to Bernard , Van Gogh referred to `` funereal cypresses , '' though this is possibly similar to saying `` stately oaks '' or `` weeping willows . '' One week after painting The Starry Night , he wrote to his brother Theo , `` The cypresses are always occupying my thoughts . I should like to make something of them like the canvases of the sunflowers , because it astonishes me that they have not yet been done as I see them . '' In the same letter he mentioned `` two studies of cypresses of that difficult shade of bottle green . '' These statements suggest that Van Gogh was interested in the trees more for their formal qualities than for their symbolic connotation . Schapiro refers to the cypress in the painting as a `` vague symbol of a human striving . '' Boime calls it the `` symbolic counterpart of Van Gogh 's own striving for the Infinite through non-orthodox channels . '' Art historian Vojtech Jirat - Wasiutynski says that for Van Gogh the cypresses `` function as rustic and natural obelisks '' providing a `` link between the heavens and the earth . '' ( Some commentators see one tree , others see two or more . ) Loevgren reminds the reader that `` the cypress is the tree of death in the Mediterranean countries . '' Art historian Ronald Pickvance says that with `` its arbitrary collage of separate motifs , '' The Starry Night `` is overtly stamped as an ' abstraction ' . '' Pickvance claims that cypress trees were not visible facing east from Van Gogh 's room , and he includes them with the village and the swirls in the sky as products of Van Gogh 's imagination . Boime asserts that the cypresses were visible in the east , as does Jirat - Wasiutyński . Van Gogh biographers Steven Naifeh and Gregory White Smith concur , saying that Van Gogh `` telescoped '' the view in certain of the pictures of the view from his window , and it stands to reason that Van Gogh would do this in a painting featuring the morning star . Such a compression of depth serves to enhance the brightness of planet . Soth uses Van Gogh 's statement to his brother , that The Starry Night is `` an exaggeration from the point of view of arrangement '' to further his argument that the painting is `` an amalgam of images . '' However , it is by no means certain that Van Gogh was using `` arrangement '' as a synonym for `` composition . '' Van Gogh was , in fact , speaking of three paintings , one of which was The Starry Night , when he made this comment : `` The olive trees with white cloud and background of mountains , as well as the Moonrise and the Night effect , '' as he called it , `` these are exaggerations from the point of view of the arrangement , their lines are contorted like those of the ancient woodcuts . '' The first two pictures are universally acknowledged to be realistic , non-composite views of their subjects . What the three pictures do have in common is exaggerated color and brushwork of the type that Theo referred to when he criticized Van Gogh for his `` search for style ( that ) takes away the real sentiment of things '' in The Starry Night . On two other occasions around this time , Van Gogh used the word `` arrangement '' to refer to color , similar to the way James Abbott McNeill Whistler used the term . In a letter to Gauguin in January 1889 , he wrote , `` As an arrangement of colours : the reds moving through to pure oranges , intensifying even more in the flesh tones up to the chromes , passing into the pinks and marrying with the olive and Veronese greens . As an impressionist arrangement of colours , I 've never devised anything better . '' ( The painting he is referring to is La Berceuse , which is a realistic portrait of Augustine Roulin with an imaginative floral background . ) And to Bernard in late November 1889 : `` But this is enough for you to understand that I would long to see things of yours again , like the painting of yours that Gauguin has , those Breton women walking in a meadow , the arrangement of which is so beautiful , the colour so naively distinguished . Ah , you 're exchanging that for something -- must one say the word -- something artificial -- something affected . '' When Van Gogh calls The Starry Night a failure for being an `` abstraction , '' he places the blame on his having painted `` stars that are too big . '' While stopping short of calling the painting a hallucinatory vision , Naifeh and Smith discuss The Starry Night in the context of Van Gogh 's mental illness , which they identify as temporal lobe epilepsy , or latent epilepsy . `` Not the kind , '' they write , `` known since antiquity , that caused the limbs to jerk and the body to collapse ( ' the falling sickness ' , as it was sometimes called ) , but a mental epilepsy -- a seizing up of the mind : a collapse of thought , perception , reason , and emotion that manifested itself entirely in the brain and often prompted bizarre , dramatic behavior . '' Symptoms of the seizures `` resembled fireworks of electrical impulses in the brain . '' Van Gogh experienced his second breakdown in seven months in July 1889 . Naifeh and Smith theorize that the seeds of this breakdown were present when Van Gogh painted The Starry Night , that in giving himself over to his imagination `` his defenses had been breached . '' On that day in mid-June , in a `` state of heightened reality , '' with all the other elements of the painting in place , Van Gogh threw himself into the painting of the stars , producing , they write , `` a night sky unlike any other the world had ever seen with ordinary eyes . '' Provenance ( edit ) After having initially held it back , Van Gogh sent The Starry Night to Theo in Paris on 28 September 1889 , along with nine or ten other paintings . Theo died less than six months after Vincent , in January 1891 . Theo 's widow , Jo , then became the caretaker of Van Gogh 's legacy . She sold the painting to poet Julien Leclercq in Paris in 1900 , who turned around and sold it to Émile Schuffenecker , Gauguin 's old friend , in 1901 . Jo then bought the painting back from Schuffenecker before selling it to the Oldenzeel Gallery in Rotterdam in 1906 . From 1906 to 1938 it was owned by Georgette P. van Stolk , of Rotterdam , who sold it to Paul Rosenberg , of Paris and New York . It was through Rosenberg that the Museum of Modern Art acquired the painting in 1941 . Painting materials ( edit ) The painting was investigated by the scientists at the Rochester Institute of Technology and the Museum of Modern Art in New York . The pigment analysis has shown that the sky was painted with ultramarine and cobalt blue and for the stars and the moon van Gogh employed the rare pigment indian yellow together with zinc yellow . Details of ' ' The Starry Night ' ' from Vincent van Gogh exposed at the Museum of Modern Art of New York . Moon . Venus . Hills and sky . Left part of the canvas and frame . Stars in the sky . Popular culture ( edit ) Don McLean 's `` Vincent '' ( 1971 ) was inspired by The Starry Night and the life and death of Van Gogh . The artwork on the back cover to Cyndi Lauper 's first album She 's So Unusual ( 1983 ) features a photograph by Annie Leibovitz of the soles of Cyndi Lauper 's high - heeled shoes . The soles feature cut - out images from The Starry Night . The painting hangs along with other paintings by Van Gogh in an imaginary gallery in Akira Kurosawa 's Dreams ( 1990 ) . Elements of the painting appear in the movie poster for the Woody Allen film Midnight in Paris ( 2011 ) . In the ending of season 20 , episode 20 of The Simpsons , Maggie is painting The Starry Night . In `` Vincent and the Doctor , '' the tenth episode of the fifth series of BBC 's Doctor Who , the eleventh Doctor ( actor Matt Smith ) goes back to the time of Vincent van Gogh with Amy Pond ( actor Karen Gillan ) to get an alien ( The Krafayis ) out of a painting . We see The Starry Night when they are looking at the stars , Vincent says `` I see the world differently , '' and the stars and the moon change into an image of the painting . In the 3D computer - animated movie Home ( 2015 ) , the painting ends up in the possession of the protagonist , Gratuity `` Tip '' Tucci , after the Boov invasion . In the city of Keelung , Taiwan , an enormous plastic bottle mosaic of The Starry Night painting was completed in December 2015 . Entitled The Starry Paradise , the mosaic is made up of over 4 million plastic bottles and covers 53 hectares of land . The Starry Night was mentioned in the Star Trek : The Next Generation episode `` The Most Toys '' . The Starry Night was used for an episode of Little Einsteins along with `` Für Elise '' by `` Ludwig van Beethoven '' . It was titled ' The Christmas Wish ' and aired December 12 , 2005 . In the 2009 3D stop - motion animated film Coraline , the background of one of the scenes is inspired by the painting . In the Season 2 , 2017 episode of Supergirl - ' Star - Crossed ' , The Starry Night was stolen by an alien Lyra in order to pay her brother 's debts . In Sailor Moon , The Starry Night is used as a background for the opening title animation . In The Great Debate - The Storytelling of Science 2013 , astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson tells the story of painting The Starry Night by van Gogh and its importance as the first painting in which the background , which is the night sky , is the main subject of the painting .

Historians in Britain often see it as a minor theater of the Napoleonic Wars ; in the United States and Canada , it is seen as a war in its own right . Since the outbreak of war with Napoleonic France , Britain had enforced a naval blockade to choke off neutral trade to France , which the United States contested as illegal under international law . To man the blockade , Britain impressed American merchant sailors into the Royal Navy . Incidents such as the Chesapeake -- Leopard Affair inflamed anti-British sentiment . In 1811 , the British were in turn outraged by the Little Belt Affair , which resulted in the deaths of 11 British sailors . British political support for a Native American buffer state , which conducted raids on American settlers on the frontier , hindered American expansion . On June 18 , 1812 , President James Madison , after receiving heavy pressure from the War hawks in Congress , signed the American declaration of war into law . Senior figures such as Lord Liverpool and Lord Castlereagh believed it to have been an opportunistic ploy to annex Canada while Britain was fighting a war with France . The view was shared in much of New England . With the majority of its army in Europe fighting Napoleon , the British adopted a defensive strategy , though the war 's first engagement was an ill - fated assault on Sacket 's Harbor , New York . American prosecution of the war effort suffered from its unpopularity , especially in New England , where it was derogatorily referred to as `` Mr. Madison 's War '' . American defeats at the Siege of Detroit and the Battle of Queenston Heights thwarted attempts to seize Upper Canada , improving British morale . American attempts to invade Montreal also failed . In 1813 , at the Battle of Lake Erie the Americans won control of Lake Erie and at the Battle of the Thames , shattered Tecumseh 's Confederacy , securing a primary war goal . At sea , the powerful Royal Navy blockaded the American coast , allowing them to strike American trade at will . In 1814 , the Burning of Washington took place . The Americans repulsed the British at the Battle of Plattsburgh , ending an attempt to invade the north , and , at the Battle of Baltimore , the British threat to the mid-Atlantic states was defeated . At home , the British faced mounting opposition to wartime taxation , and demands to reopen trade with America . With the abdication of Napoleon , the maintenance of the blockade of France , as well as the issue of the impressment of American sailors , were nullified . The British were then able to increase the strength of the blockade on the United States coast , annihilating American maritime trade and bringing the United States government near to bankruptcy . Peace negotiations began in August 1814 and the Treaty of Ghent was signed on December 24 as neither side wanted to continue fighting . News of the peace would not reach America for some time . Unaware that the treaty had been signed , British forces invaded Louisiana and were defeated at the Battle of New Orleans in January 1815 . The victory and the subsequent ending of the war was seen to have brought in the Era of Good Feelings by restoring American honour , the bottling up of most of the United States Navy , leading to the collapse of anti-war sentiment . Propaganda within the country caused the capture of USS President , the American flagship , the next week to be overlooked . News of the treaty arrived shortly thereafter , halting military operations . The treaty was unanimously ratified by the United States on February 17 , 1815 , ending the war with Status quo ante bellum ( no boundary changes ) .

Historians have long debated the relative weight of the multiple reasons underlying the origins of the War of 1812 . This section summarizes several contributing factors which resulted in the declaration of war by the United States . Honour and the second war of independence As Risjord ( 1961 ) notes , a powerful motivation for the Americans was the desire to uphold national honour in the face of what they considered to be British insults such as the Chesapeake -- Leopard Affair . H.W. Brands says , `` The other war hawks spoke of the struggle with Britain as a second war of independence ; ( Andrew ) Jackson , who still bore scars from the first war of independence held that view with special conviction . The approaching conflict was about violations of American rights , but it was also about vindication of American identity . '' Americans at the time and historians since often called it the United States ' `` Second War of Independence '' . The British too were offended by what they considered insults such as the Little Belt Affair . This led to the British having a particular interest in capturing the United States flagship President which they would eventually succeed at doing in 1815 . Impressment and naval actions In 1807 , Britain introduced a series of trade restrictions via the Orders in Council to impede neutral trade with France , which Britain was then fighting in the Napoleonic Wars . The United States contested these restrictions as illegal under international law . Historian Reginald Horsman states , `` a large section of influential British opinion , both in the government and in the country , thought that America presented a threat to British maritime supremacy . '' The American merchant marine had come close to doubling between 1802 and 1810 , making it by far the largest neutral fleet . Britain was the largest trading partner , receiving 80 % of U.S. cotton and 50 % of other U.S. exports . The British public and press were resentful of the growing mercantile and commercial competition . The United States ' view was that Britain 's restrictions violated its right to trade with others . Press gang : oil painting by Luke Clennell During the Napoleonic Wars , the Royal Navy expanded to 176 ships of the line and 600 ships overall , requiring 140,000 sailors to man . While the Royal Navy could man its ships with volunteers in peacetime , it competed in wartime with merchant shipping and privateers for a small pool of experienced sailors and turned to impressment from ashore and foreign or domestic shipping when it could not operate its ships with volunteers alone . The United States believed that British deserters had a right to become U.S. citizens . Britain did not recognize a right whereby a British subject could relinquish his status as a British subject , emigrate and transfer his national allegiance as a naturalized citizen to any other country . This meant that in addition to recovering naval deserters , it considered any United States citizens who were born British liable for impressment . Aggravating the situation was the reluctance of the United States to issue formal naturalization papers and the widespread use of unofficial or forged identity or protection papers by sailors . This made it difficult for the Royal Navy to distinguish Americans from non-Americans and led it to impress some Americans who had never been British . Some gained freedom on appeal . Thus while the United States recognized British - born sailors on American ships as Americans , Britain did not . It was estimated by the Admiralty that there were 11,000 naturalized sailors on United States ships in 1805 . U.S. Secretary of the Treasury Albert Gallatin stated that 9,000 U.S. sailors were born in Britain . Moreover , a great number of these British born sailors were Irish . An investigation by Captain Isaac Chauncey in 1808 found that 58 % of sailors based in New York City were either naturalized citizens or recent immigrants , the majority of these foreign born sailors ( 134 of 150 ) being from Britain . Moreover , 80 of the 134 British sailors were Irish . American anger at impressment grew when British frigates were stationed just outside U.S. harbours in view of U.S. shores and searched ships for contraband and impressed men while within U.S. territorial waters . Well publicized impressment actions such as the Leander Affair and the Chesapeake -- Leopard Affair outraged the American public . The British public in turn were outraged by the Little Belt Affair , in which a larger American ship clashed with a small British sloop , resulting in the deaths of 11 British sailors . Both sides claimed the other fired first , but the British public in particular blamed the U.S. for attacking a smaller vessel , with calls for revenge by some newspapers , while the U.S. was encouraged by the fact they had won a victory over the Royal Navy . The U.S. Navy also forcibly recruited British sailors but the British government saw impressment as commonly accepted practice and preferred to rescue British sailors from American impressment on a case - by - case basis . British support for Native American raids Origins of the War of 1812 Chesapeake -- Leopard Affair Orders in Council ( 1807 ) Embargo Act of 1807 Non-Intercourse Act ( 1809 ) Macon 's Bill Number 2 Tecumseh 's War Henry letters War hawks Rule of 1756 Monroe -- Pinkney Treaty Little Belt Affair The Northwest Territory , which consisted of the modern states of Ohio , Indiana , Illinois , Michigan , and Wisconsin , was the battleground for conflict between the Native American Nations and the United States . The British Empire had ceded the area to the United States in the Treaty of Paris in 1783 , both sides ignoring the fact that the land was already inhabited by various Native American nations . These included the Miami , Winnebago , Shawnee , Fox , Sauk , Kickapoo , Delaware and Wyandot . Some warriors , who had left their nations of origin , followed Tenskwatawa , the Shawnee Prophet and the brother of Tecumseh . Tenskwatawa had a vision of purifying his society by expelling the `` children of the Evil Spirit '' : the American settlers . The Indians wanted to create their own state in the Northwest , which would end the American threat forever as it became clear that the Americans wanted all of the land in the Old Northwest for themselves . Tenskwatawa and Tecumseh formed a confederation of numerous tribes to block American expansion . The British saw the Native American nations as valuable allies and a buffer to its Canadian colonies and provided arms . Attacks on American settlers in the Northwest further aggravated tensions between Britain and the United States . Raiding grew more common in 1810 and 1811 ; Westerners in Congress found the raids intolerable and wanted them permanently ended . British policy towards the Indians of the Northwest was torn between on one point the desire to keep the Americans fighting in the Northwest and to preserve a region that provided rich profits for Canadian fur traders vs. the fear of too much support for the Indians would cause a war with the United States . Through Tecumseh 's plans for an Indian state in the Northwest would benefit British North America by making it more defensible , at the same time , the defeats suffered by Tecumseh 's confederation had the British leery to going too far to support what was probably a losing cause and in the months running to the war , British diplomats attempted to defuse tensions on the frontier . The confederation 's raids and existence hindered American expansion into rich farmlands in the Northwest Territory . Pratt writes : There is ample proof that the British authorities did all in their power to hold or win the allegiance of the Indians of the Northwest with the expectation of using them as allies in the event of war . Indian allegiance could be held only by gifts , and to an Indian no gift was as acceptable as a lethal weapon . Guns and ammunition , tomahawks and scalping knives were dealt out with some liberality by British agents . However , according to the U.S Army Center of Military History , the `` land - hungry frontiersmen '' , with `` no doubt that their troubles with the Native Americans were the result of British intrigue '' , exacerbated the problem by `` ( circulating stories ) after every Native American raid of British Army muskets and equipment being found on the field '' . Thus , `` the westerners were convinced that their problems could best be solved by forcing the British out of Canada '' . The British had the long - standing goal of creating a large , `` neutral '' Native American state that would cover much of Ohio , Indiana , and Michigan . They made the demand as late as the fall of 1814 at the peace conference , but lost control of western Ontario in 1813 at key battles on and around Lake Erie . These battles destroyed the Indian confederacy which had been the main ally of the British in that region , weakening its negotiating position . Although the area remained under British or British - allied Native Americans ' control until the end of the war , the British , at American insistence and with higher priorities , dropped the demands . American expansionism American expansion into the Northwest Territory was being obstructed by various Indian tribes since the end of the Revolution , who were supplied and encouraged by the British . Americans on the western frontier demanded that interference be stopped . There is dispute , however , over whether or not the American desire to annex Canada brought on the war . Several historians believe that the capture of Canada was intended only as a means to secure a bargaining chip , which would then be used to force Britain to back down on the maritime issues . It would also cut off food supplies for Britain 's West Indian colonies , and temporarily prevent the British from continuing to arm the Indians . However , many historians believe that a desire to annex Canada was a cause of the war . This view was more prevalent before 1940 , but remains widely held today . Congressman Richard Mentor Johnson told Congress that the constant Indian atrocities along the Wabash River in Indiana were enabled by supplies from Canada and were proof that `` the war has already commenced ... I shall never die contented until I see England 's expulsion from North America and her territories incorporated into the United States . '' James Madison , U.S. President , ( 1809 -- 1817 ) Lord Liverpool , British Prime Minister , ( 1812 -- 1827 ) Madison believed that British economic policies designed to foster imperial preference were harming the American economy and that as British North America existed , here was a conduit for American strugglers who were undercutting his trade policies , which thus required that the United States annex British North America . Furthermore , Madison believed that the Great Lakes - St. Lawrence trade route might become the main trade route for the export of North American goods to Europe at the expense of the U.S. economy , and if the United States controlled the resources of British North America like timber which the British needed for their navy , then Britain would be forced to change its maritime policies which had so offended American public opinion . Many Americans believed it was only natural that their country should swallow up North America with one Congressman , John Harper saying in a speech that `` the Author of Nature Himself had marked our limits in the south , by the Gulf of Mexico and on the north , by the regions of eternal frost '' . Upper Canada ( modern southern Ontario ) had been settled mostly by Revolution - era exiles from the United States ( United Empire Loyalists ) or postwar American immigrants . The Loyalists were hostile to union with the United States , while the immigrant settlers were generally uninterested in politics and remained neutral or supported the British during the war . The Canadian colonies were thinly populated and only lightly defended by the British Army . Americans then believed that many men in Upper Canada would rise up and greet an American invading army as liberators . That did not happen . One reason American forces retreated after one successful battle inside Canada was that they could not obtain supplies from the locals . But the Americans thought that the possibility of local support suggested an easy conquest , as former President Thomas Jefferson believed : `` The acquisition of Canada this year , as far as the neighborhood of Quebec , will be a mere matter of marching , and will give us the experience for the attack on Halifax , the next and final expulsion of England from the American continent . '' Annexation was supported by American border businessmen who wanted to gain control of Great Lakes trade . Carl Benn noted that the War Hawks ' desire to annex the Canadas was similar to the enthusiasm for the annexation of Spanish Florida by inhabitants of the American South ; both expected war to facilitate expansion into long - desired lands and end support for hostile Indian tribes ( Tecumseh 's Confederacy in the North and the Creek in the South ) . Tennessee Congressman Felix Grundy considered it essential to acquire Canada to preserve domestic political balance , arguing that annexing Canada would maintain the free state - slave state balance , which might otherwise be thrown off by the acquisition of Florida and the settlement of the southern areas of the new Louisiana Purchase . However historian Richard Maass argued in 2015 that the expansionist theme is a myth that goes against the `` relative consensus among experts that the primary U.S. objective was the repeal of British maritime restrictions '' . He argues that consensus among scholars is that the United States went to war `` because six years of economic sanctions had failed to bring Britain to the negotiating table , and threatening the Royal Navy 's Canadian supply base was their last hope . '' Maass agrees that theoretically expansionism might have tempted Americans , but finds that `` leaders feared the domestic political consequences of doing so . Notably , what limited expansionism there was focused on sparsely populated western lands rather than the more populous eastern settlements ( of Canada ) . '' Horsman argued expansionism played a role as a secondary cause after maritime issues , noting that many historians have mistakenly rejected expansionism as a cause for the war . He notes that it was considered key to maintaining sectional balance between free and slave states thrown off by American settlement of the Louisiana Territory , and widely supported by dozens of War Hawk congressmen such as John A. Harper , Felix Grundy , Henry Clay , and Richard M. Johnson , who voted for war with expansion as a key aim . In disagreeing with those interpretations that have simply stressed expansionism and minimized maritime causation , historians have ignored deep - seated American fears for national security , dreams of a continent completely controlled by the republican United States , and the evidence that many Americans believed that the War of 1812 would be the occasion for the United States to achieve the long - desired annexation of Canada ... Thomas Jefferson well - summarized American majority opinion about the war ... to say `` that the cession of Canada ... must be a sine qua non ( i.e. indispensable condition ) at a treaty of peace '' . However , Horsman states that in his view `` the desire for Canada did not cause the War of 1812 '' and that `` The United States did not declare war because it wanted to obtain Canada , but the acquisition of Canada was viewed as a major collateral benefit of the conflict . '' Historian Alan Taylor says that many Republican congressmen , such as Richard M. Johnson , John A. Harper and Peter B. Porter , `` longed to oust the British from the continent and to annex Canada . '' A few Southerners opposed this , fearing an imbalance of free and slave states if Canada was annexed , while anti-Catholicism also caused many to oppose annexing mainly Catholic Lower Canada , believing its French - speaking inhabitants `` unfit ... for republican citizenship '' . Even major figures such as Henry Clay and James Monroe expected to keep at least Upper Canada in the event of an easy conquest . Notable American generals , like William Hull were led by this sentiment to issue proclamations to Canadians during the war promising republican liberation through incorporation into the United States ; a proclamation the government never officially disavowed . General Alexander Smyth similarly declared to his troops that when they invaded Canada `` You will enter a country that is to become one of the United States . You will arrive among a people who are to become your fellow - citizens . '' A lack of clarity about American intentions undercut these appeals , however . David and Jeanne Heidler argue that `` Most historians agree that the War of 1812 was not caused by expansionism but instead reflected a real concern of American patriots to defend United States ' neutral rights from the overbearing tyranny of the British Navy . That is not to say that expansionist aims would not potentially result from the war . '' However , they also argue otherwise , saying that `` acquiring Canada would satisfy America 's expansionist desires '' , also describing it as a key goal of western expansionists , who , they argue , believed that `` eliminating the British presence in Canada would best accomplish '' their goal of halting British support for Indian raids . They argue that the `` enduring debate '' is over the relative importance of expansionism as a factor , and whether `` expansionism played a greater role in causing the War of 1812 than American concern about protecting neutral maritime rights . '' U.S. political conflict Main articles : Federalist Party and Opposition to the War of 1812 in the United States While the British government was largely oblivious to the deteriorating North American situation because of its involvement in a continent - wide European War , the U.S. was in a period of significant political conflict between the Federalist Party ( based mainly in the Northeast ) , which favoured a strong central government and closer ties to Britain , and the Democratic - Republican Party ( with its greatest power base in the South and West ) , which favoured a weak central government , preservation of states ' rights ( including slavery ) , expansion into Indian land , and a stronger break with Britain . By 1812 , the Federalist Party had weakened considerably , and the Republicans , with James Madison completing his first term of office and control of Congress , were in a strong position to pursue their more aggressive agenda against Britain . Throughout the war , support for the U.S. cause was weak ( or sometimes non-existent ) in Federalist areas of the Northeast . Few men volunteered to serve ; the banks avoided financing the war . The negativism of the Federalists , especially as exemplified by the Hartford Convention of 1814 -- 15 , ruined its reputation and the Party survived only in scattered areas . By 1815 there was broad support for the war from all parts of the country . This allowed the triumphant Democratic - Republicans to adopt some Federalist policies , such as a national bank , which Madison reestablished in 1816 . Forces American The United States Navy ( USN ) had 7,250 sailors and Marines in 1812 . The American Navy was well trained and a professional force that fought well against the Barbary pirates and France in the Quasi-War . The USN had 13 ocean - going warships , three of them `` super-frigates '' and its principal problem was a lack of funding as many in Congress did not see the need for a strong navy . The American warships were all well - built ships that were equal , if not superior to British ships of a similar class ( British shipbuilding emphasized quantity over quality ) . However , the biggest ships in the USN were frigates and the Americans had no ships - of - the - line capable of engaging in a fleet action with the Royal Navy at sea . On the high seas , the Americans could only pursue a strategy of guerre de course of taking British merchantmen via their frigates and privateers . Before the war , the USN was largely concentrated on the Atlantic coast and at the war 's outbreak had only two gunboats on Lake Champlain , one brig on Lake Ontario and another brig in Lake Erie . The United States Army was much larger than the British Army in North America , but leadership in the American officer corps was inconsistent with some officers proving themselves to be outstanding but many others inept , owing their positions to political favors . American soldiers were well trained and brave , but in the early battles were often led by officers of questionable ability . Congress was hostile to a standing army , and during the war , the U.S. government called out 450,000 men from the state militas , a number that was slightly smaller than the entire population of British North America . However , the state militias were poorly trained , armed and led . After the Battle of Bladensburg in 1814 in which the Maryland and Virginia militias were soundly defeated by the British Army , President Madison commented : `` I could never have believed so great a difference existed between regular troops and a militia force , if I not witnessed the scenes of this day . '' British See also : Canadian units of the War of 1812 The British Royal Navy was a well - led , professional force , described by the Canadian historian Carl Benn as the world 's most powerful navy . However , as long as the war with France continued , North America was a secondary concern . In 1813 , France had 80 ships - of - the - line while building another 35 . Therefore , containing the French fleet had to be the main British naval concern . In Upper Canada , the British had the Provincial Marine was essential for keeping the army supplied since the roads in Upper Canada were abysmal . On Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence , the Royal Navy had two schooners while the Provincial Marine maintained four small warships on Lake Erie . The British Army in North America was a very professional and well trained force , but suffered from being outnumbered . The militias of Upper Canada and Lower Canada had a much more lower level of military effectiveness . Nevertheless , Canadian militia ( and locally recruited regular units known as `` Fencibles '' ) were often more reliable than American militia , particularly when defending their own territory . As such they played pivotal roles in various engagements , including at the Battle of Chateauguay where Canadian and Indian forces alone stopped a much larger American force despite not having assistance from regular British units . Indian Because of their lower population compared to whites , and lacking artillery , Indian allies of the British avoided pitched battles and instead relied on irregular warfare , including raids and ambushes . Given their low population , it was crucial to avoid heavy losses and , in general , Indian chiefs would seek to only fight under favorable conditions ; any battle that promised heavy losses was avoided if possible . The main Indian weapons were a mixture of tomahawks , knives , swords , rifles , clubs , arrows and muskets . Indian warriors were brave , but the need to avoid heavy losses meant that they would only fight under the most favorable conditions and their tactics favored a defensive as opposed to offensive style . In the words of Benn , those Indians fighting with the Americans provided the U.S with their `` most effective light troops '' while the British desperately needed the Indian tribes to compensate for their numerical inferiority . The Indians , regardless of which side they fought for , saw themselves as allies , not subordinates and Indian chiefs did what they viewed as best for their tribes , much to the annoyance of both American and British generals , who often complained about their unreliability . Declaration of war U.S. Declaration of War Proclamation by Isaac Brock in response to the U.S. declaration of war Wikisource has original text related to this article : US Declaration of War against the United Kingdom On June 1 , 1812 , President James Madison sent a message to Congress recounting American grievances against Great Britain , though not specifically calling for a declaration of war . After Madison 's message , the House of Representatives deliberated for four days behind closed doors before voting 79 to 49 ( 61 % ) in favor of the first declaration of war . The Senate concurred in the declaration by a 19 to 13 ( 59 % ) vote in favour . The conflict began formally on June 18 , 1812 , when Madison signed the measure into law and proclaimed it the next day . This was the first time that the United States had declared war on another nation , and the Congressional vote would prove to be the closest vote to formally declare war in American history . The Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 1991 , while not a formal declaration of war , was a closer vote . None of the 39 Federalists in Congress voted in favour of the war ; critics of war subsequently referred to it as `` Mr. Madison 's War . '' Earlier in London on May 11 , an assassin had killed Prime Minister Spencer Perceval , which resulted in Lord Liverpool coming to power . Liverpool wanted a more practical relationship with the United States . On June 23 , he issued a repeal of the Orders in Council , but the United States was unaware of this , as it took three weeks for the news to cross the Atlantic . On June 28 , 1812 , HMS Colibri was despatched from Halifax under a flag of truce to New York . On July 9 , she anchored off Sandy Hook , and three days later sailed on her return with a copy of the declaration of war , in addition to transporting the British ambassador to the United States , Mr. Foster and consul , Colonel Barclay . She arrived in Halifax , Nova Scotia eight days later . The news of the declaration took even longer to reach London . However , the British commander in Upper Canada received news of the American declaration of war much faster . In response to the U.S. declaration of war , Isaac Brock issued a proclamation alerting the citizenry in Upper Canada of the state of war and urging all military personnel `` to be vigilant in the discharge of their duty '' to prevent communication with the enemy and to arrest anyone suspected of helping the Americans . He also issued orders to the commander of the British post at Fort St. Joseph to initiate offensive operations against U.S. forces in northern Michigan , who it turned out , were not yet aware of their own government 's declaration of war . The resulting Siege of Fort Mackinac on July 17 was the first major land engagement of the war , and ended in an easy British victory . Course of war See also : Timeline of the War of 1812 The war was conducted in three theatres : The Great Lakes and the Canadian frontier At sea , principally the Atlantic Ocean and the east coast of North America The Southern states and southwestern territories Unpreparedness Although the outbreak of the war had been preceded by years of angry diplomatic dispute , neither side was ready for war when it came . Britain was heavily engaged in the Napoleonic Wars , most of the British Army was deployed in the Peninsular War ( in Portugal and Spain ) , and the Royal Navy was compelled to blockade most of the coast of Europe . The number of British regular troops present in Canada in July 1812 was officially stated to be 6,034 , supported by Canadian militia . Throughout the war , the British Secretary of State for War and the Colonies was Earl Bathurst . For the first two years of the war , he could spare few troops to reinforce North America and urged the commander - in - chief in North America ( Lieutenant General Sir George Prévost ) to maintain a defensive strategy . The naturally cautious Prévost followed these instructions , concentrating on defending Lower Canada at the expense of Upper Canada ( which was more vulnerable to American attacks ) and allowing few offensive actions . This painting of the Battle of Queenston Heights depicts the unsuccessful American landing on October 13 , 1812 . The United States was not prepared to prosecute a war , for Madison had assumed that the state militias would easily seize Canada and that negotiations would follow . In 1812 , the regular army consisted of fewer than 12,000 men . Congress authorized the expansion of the army to 35,000 men , but the service was voluntary and unpopular ; it offered poor pay , and there were few trained and experienced officers , at least initially . The militia objected to serving outside their home states , were not open to discipline , and performed poorly against British forces when outside their home states . American prosecution of the war suffered from its unpopularity , especially in New England , where anti-war speakers were vocal . `` Two of the Massachusetts members ( of Congress ) , Seaver and Widgery , were publicly insulted and hissed on Change in Boston ; while another , Charles Turner , member for the Plymouth district , and Chief - Justice of the Court of Sessions for that county , was seized by a crowd on the evening of August 3 , ( 1812 ) and kicked through the town '' . The United States had great difficulty financing its war . It had disbanded its national bank , and private bankers in the Northeast were opposed to the war . The United States was able to obtain financing from London - based Barings Bank to cover overseas bond obligations . The failure of New England to provide militia units or financial support was a serious blow . Threats of secession by New England states were loud , as evidenced by the Hartford Convention . Britain exploited these divisions , blockading only southern ports for much of the war and encouraging smuggling . Great Lakes and western territories Invasions of Upper and Lower Canada , 1812 Map showing the northern theatre of the War of 1812 American leaders assumed that Canada could be easily overrun . Former President Jefferson optimistically referred to the conquest of Canada as `` a matter of marching '' . Many Loyalist Americans had migrated to Upper Canada after the Revolutionary War . There was also significant non-Loyalist American immigration to the area due to the offer of land grants to immigrants , and the U.S. assumed the latter would favour the American cause , but they did not . In prewar Upper Canada , General Prévost was in the unusual position of having to purchase many provisions for his troops from the American side . This peculiar trade persisted throughout the war in spite of an abortive attempt by the U.S. government to curtail it . In Lower Canada , which was much more populous , support for Britain came from the English elite with strong loyalty to the Empire , and from the Canadian elite , who feared American conquest would destroy the old order by introducing Protestantism , Anglicization , republican democracy , and commercial capitalism ; and weakening the Catholic Church . The Canadian inhabitants feared the loss of a shrinking area of good lands to potential American immigrants . In 1812 -- 13 , British military experience prevailed over inexperienced American commanders . Geography dictated that operations would take place in the west : principally around Lake Erie , near the Niagara River between Lake Erie and Lake Ontario , and near the Saint Lawrence River area and Lake Champlain . This was the focus of the three - pronged attacks by the Americans in 1812 . Although cutting the St. Lawrence River through the capture of Montreal and Quebec would have made Britain 's hold in North America unsustainable , the United States began operations first in the western frontier because of the general popularity there of a war with the British , who had sold arms to the Native Americans opposing the settlers . The British scored an important early success when their detachment at St. Joseph Island , on Lake Huron , learned of the declaration of war before the nearby American garrison at the important trading post at Mackinac Island in Michigan . A scratch force landed on the island on July 17 , 1812 , and mounted a gun overlooking Fort Mackinac . After the British fired one shot from their gun , the Americans , taken by surprise , surrendered . This early victory encouraged the natives , and large numbers moved to help the British at Amherstburg . The island totally controlled access to the Old Northwest , giving the British nominal control of this area , and , more vitally , a monopoly on the fur trade . Kensett 's engraving of Upper & Lower Canada 1812 An American army under the command of William Hull invaded Canada on July 12 , with his forces chiefly composed of untrained and ill - disciplined militiamen . Once on Canadian soil , Hull issued a proclamation ordering all British subjects to surrender , or `` the horrors , and calamities of war will stalk before you '' . This led many of the British forces to defect . John Bennett , printer and publisher of the York Gazette & Oracle , was a prominent defector . Andrew Mercer , who had the publication 's production moved to his house , lost the press and type destroyed during American occupation , an example of what happened to resisters . He also threatened to kill any British prisoner caught fighting alongside a native . The proclamation helped stiffen resistance to the American attacks . Hull 's army was too weak in artillery and badly supplied to achieve its objectives , and had to fight just to maintain its own lines of communication . The senior British officer in Upper Canada , Major General Isaac Brock , felt that he should take bold measures to calm the settler population in Canada , and to convince the aboriginals who were needed to defend the region that Britain was strong . He moved rapidly to Amherstburg near the western end of Lake Erie with reinforcements and immediately decided to attack Detroit . Hull , fearing that the British possessed superior numbers and that the Indians attached to Brock 's force would commit massacres if fighting began , surrendered Detroit without a fight on August 16 . Knowing of British - instigated indigenous attacks on other locations , Hull ordered the evacuation of the inhabitants of Fort Dearborn ( Chicago ) to Fort Wayne . After initially being granted safe passage , the inhabitants ( soldiers and civilians ) were attacked by Potowatomis on August 15 after travelling only 2 miles ( 3.2 km ) in what is known as the Battle of Fort Dearborn . The fort was subsequently burned . Brock promptly transferred himself to the eastern end of Lake Erie , where American General Stephen Van Rensselaer was attempting a second invasion . An armistice ( arranged by Prévost in the hope the British renunciation of the Orders in Council to which the United States objected might lead to peace ) prevented Brock from invading American territory . When the armistice ended , the Americans attempted an attack across the Niagara River on October 13 , but suffered a crushing defeat at Queenston Heights . Brock was killed during the battle . While the professionalism of the American forces would improve by the war 's end , British leadership suffered after Brock 's death . A final attempt in 1812 by American General Henry Dearborn to advance north from Lake Champlain failed when his militia refused to advance beyond American territory . In contrast to the American militia , the Canadian militia performed well . French Canadians , who found the anti-Catholic stance of most of the United States troublesome , and United Empire Loyalists , who had fought for the Crown during the American Revolutionary War , strongly opposed the American invasion . Many in Upper Canada were recent settlers from the United States who had no obvious loyalties to the Crown ; nevertheless , while there were some who sympathized with the invaders , the American forces found strong opposition from men loyal to the Empire . American Northwest , 1813 Oliver Hazard Perry 's message to William Henry Harrison after the Battle of Lake Erie began with what would become one of the most famous sentences in American military history : `` We have met the enemy and they are ours '' . This 1865 painting by William H. Powell shows Perry transferring to a different ship during the battle . Main article : Ohio in the War of 1812 After Hull 's surrender of Detroit , General William Henry Harrison was given command of the U.S. Army of the Northwest . He set out to retake the city , which was now defended by Colonel Henry Procter in conjunction with Tecumseh . A detachment of Harrison 's army was defeated at Frenchtown along the River Raisin on January 22 , 1813 . Procter left the prisoners with an inadequate guard , who could not prevent some of his North American aboriginal allies from attacking and killing perhaps as many as sixty Americans , many of whom were Kentucky militiamen . The incident became known as the River Raisin Massacre . The defeat ended Harrison 's campaign against Detroit , and the phrase `` Remember the River Raisin ! '' became a rallying cry for the Americans . In May 1813 , Procter and Tecumseh set siege to Fort Meigs in northwestern Ohio . American reinforcements arriving during the siege were defeated by the natives , but the fort held out . The Indians eventually began to disperse , forcing Procter and Tecumseh to return north to Canada . A second offensive against Fort Meigs also failed in July . In an attempt to improve Indian morale , Procter and Tecumseh attempted to storm Fort Stephenson , a small American post on the Sandusky River , only to be repulsed with serious losses , marking the end of the Ohio campaign . On Lake Erie , American commander Captain Oliver Hazard Perry fought the Battle of Lake Erie on September 10 , 1813 . His decisive victory at `` Put - In - Bay '' ensured American military control of the lake , improved American morale after a series of defeats , and compelled the British to fall back from Detroit . This paved the way for General Harrison to launch another invasion of Upper Canada , which culminated in the U.S. victory at the Battle of the Thames on October 5 , 1813 , in which Tecumseh was killed . Niagara frontier , 1813 Historical map of the Niagara River area during the War of 1812 Because of the difficulties of land communications , control of the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence River corridor was crucial . When the war began , the British already had a small squadron of warships on Lake Ontario and had the initial advantage . To redress the situation , the Americans established a Navy yard at Sackett 's Harbor in northwestern New York . Commodore Isaac Chauncey took charge of the large number of sailors and shipwrights sent there from New York ; they completed the second warship built there in a mere 45 days . Ultimately , almost 3,000 men worked at the naval shipyard , building eleven warships and many smaller boats and transports . Having regained the advantage by their rapid building program , Chauncey and Dearborn attacked York , on the northern shore of the lake , the capital of Upper Canada , on April 27 , 1813 . The Battle of York was a `` pyrrhic '' American victory , marred by looting and the burning of the small Provincial Parliament buildings and a library ( resulting in a spirit of revenge by the British / Canadians led by Gov. George Prévost , who later demanded satisfaction encouraging the British Admiralty to issue orders to their officers later operating in the Chesapeake Bay region to exact similar devastation on the American Federal capital village of Washington the following year ) . However , Kingston was strategically much more valuable to British supply and communications routes along the St. Lawrence corridor . Without control of Kingston , the U.S. Navy could not effectively control Lake Ontario or sever the British supply line from Lower Canada . On May 25 , 1813 the guns of the American Lake Ontario squadron joined by Fort Niagara began bombarding Fort George . On May 27 , 1813 , an American amphibious force from Lake Ontario assaulted Fort George on the northern end of the Niagara River and captured it without serious losses . The British also abandoned Fort Erie and headed towards the Burlington Heights . With the British position in Upper Canada on the verge of collapse , the Iroquois Indians living along the banks of the Grand River considered changing side and ignored a British appeal to come to their aid . The retreating British forces were not pursued , however , until they had largely escaped and organized a counteroffensive against the advancing Americans at the Battle of Stoney Creek on June 5 . With Upper Canada on the line , the British a surprise attack at Stoney Creek at 2 : 00 am , leading to much confused fighting . Through tactically a draw , the battle was a strategic British victory as the Americans pulled back to Forty Mile Creek rather than continuing their advance into Upper Canada . At this point , the Six Nations living on the Grand River began to come out to fight for the British as an American victory no longer seemed inevitable . The Iroquis ambushed an American patrol at Forty Mile Creek while the Royal Navy squadron based in Kingston came to bombard the American camp , leading to General Dearborn to retreat back to Fort George as he now mistakenly believed he was outnumbered and outgunned . The British commander , General John Vincent was heartened by the fact that more and more First Nations warriors were now arriving to assist him , providing about 800 additional men . On June 24 , with the help of advance warning by Laura Secord , another American force was forced to surrender by a much smaller British and native force at the Battle of Beaver Dams , marking the end of the American offensive into Upper Canada . The British commander General Francis de Rottenberg did not have the strength to retake Fort George , so he build a blockade , hoping to starve the Americans into surrender . Meanwhile , Commodore James Lucas Yeo had taken charge of the British ships on the lake and mounted a counterattack , which was nevertheless repulsed at the Battle of Sackett 's Harbor . Thereafter , Chauncey and Yeo 's squadrons fought two indecisive actions , neither commander seeking a fight to the finish . Late in 1813 , the Americans abandoned the Canadian territory they occupied around Fort George . They set fire to the village of Newark ( now Niagara - on - the - Lake ) on December 10 , 1813 , incensing the Canadians and politicians in control . Many of the inhabitants were left without shelter , freezing to death in the snow . This led to British retaliation following the Capture of Fort Niagara on December 18 , 1813 . Early the next morning on December 19 , the British and their native allies stormed the neighbouring town of Lewiston , New York , torching homes and buildings and killing about a dozen civilians . As the British were chasing the surviving residents out of town , a small force of Tuscarora natives intervened and stopped the pursuit , buying enough time for the locals to escape to safer ground . It is notable in that the Tuscaroras defended the Americans against their own Iroquois brothers , the Mohawks , who sided with the British . Later , the British attacked and burned Buffalo on December 30 , 1813 . In 1814 , the contest for Lake Ontario turned into a building race . Naval superiority shifted between the opposing fleets as each built new , bigger ships . However , neither was able to bring the other to battle when in a position of superiority , leaving the Engagements on Lake Ontario a draw . At war 's end , the British held the advantage with the 112 - gun HMS St Lawrence , but the Americans had laid down two even larger ships . The majority of these ships never saw action and were decommissioned after the war . St. Lawrence and Lower Canada , 1813 Attack on Fort Oswego ( May 1814 ) Sakawarton ( John Smoke Johnson ) , John Tutela , and Young Warner , three Six Nations veterans of the War of 1812 . Photographed in 1882 . The British were potentially most vulnerable over the stretch of the St. Lawrence where it formed the frontier between Upper Canada and the United States . During the early days of the war , there was illicit commerce across the river . Over the winter of 1812 and 1813 , the Americans launched a series of raids from Ogdensburg on the American side of the river , which hampered British supply traffic up the river . On February 21 , Sir George Prévost passed through Prescott on the opposite bank of the river with reinforcements for Upper Canada . When he left the next day , the reinforcements and local militia attacked . At the Battle of Ogdensburg , the Americans were forced to retire . For the rest of the year , Ogdensburg had no American garrison , and many residents of Ogdensburg resumed visits and trade with Prescott . This British victory removed the last American regular troops from the Upper St. Lawrence frontier and helped secure British communications with Montreal . Late in 1813 , after much argument , the Americans made two thrusts against Montreal . Taking Montreal would have cut off the British forces in Upper Canada and thus potentially changed the war . The plan eventually agreed upon was for Major General Wade Hampton to march north from Lake Champlain and join a force under General James Wilkinson that would embark in boats and sail from Sackett 's Harbor on Lake Ontario and descend the St. Lawrence . Hampton was delayed by bad roads and supply problems and also had an intense dislike of Wilkinson , which limited his desire to support his plan . On October 25 , his 4,000 - strong force was defeated at the Chateauguay River by Charles de Salaberry 's smaller force of Canadian Voltigeurs and Mohawks . Salaberry 's force of Lower Canada militia and Indians numbered only 339 , but had a strong defensive position . Wilkinson 's force of 8,000 set out on October 17 , but was also delayed by bad weather . After learning that Hampton had been checked , Wilkinson heard that a British force under Captain William Mulcaster and Lieutenant Colonel Joseph Wanton Morrison was pursuing him , and by November 10 , he was forced to land near Morrisburg , about 150 kilometres ( 90 mi ) from Montreal . On November 11 , Wilkinson 's rear guard , numbering 2,500 , attacked Morrison 's force of 800 at Crysler 's Farm and was repulsed with heavy losses . After learning that Hampton could not renew his advance , Wilkinson retreated to the U.S. and settled into winter quarters . He resigned his command after a failed attack on a British outpost at Lacolle Mills . Had the Americans taken Montreal as planned , Upper Canada would have certainly been lost and the failure of the campaign ended in the greatest British defeat in the Canadas during the war . Niagara and Plattsburgh campaigns , 1814 American Infantry attacks at Lundy 's Lane Rather trying to take Montreal or Kingston , the Americans chose again to invade the Niagara frontier to take Upper Canada , largely because the Americans had occupied southwestern Upper Canada after their victory in Moraviantown , and it was believed in Washington that if the Americans could take the rest of Upper Canada , then they would force the British to cede that province to them when it came time to negotiate the peace . The end of the war in Europe in April 1814 meant that the British could now redeploy their Army to North America , so the Americans were anxious to have Upper Canada to negotiate from a position of strength . The plan for 1814 to invade Upper Canada via the Niagara frontier while sending another force to recapture Mackinac . The British were sending supplies to the Indians in the Old Northwest from Montreal via Mackinac , so is why the island was considered important . By the middle of 1814 , American generals , including Major Generals Jacob Brown and Winfield Scott , had drastically improved the fighting abilities and discipline of the army . The Americans ' renewed attack on the Niagara peninsula quickly captured Fort Erie on July 3 , 1814 with the 170 garrison quickly surrendering to the 5 , 000 Americans . General Phineas Riall rushed towards the frontier and unaware of Fort Erie 's fall or the size of the American force chose to engage in battle . Winfield Scott then gained a victory over an inferior British force at the Battle of Chippawa on July 5 . The Americans brought out overwhelming firepower against the attacking British who lost about 600 dead to the 350 dead on the American side . An attempt to advance further ended with a hard - fought but inconclusive Battle of Lundy 's Lane on July 25 . Both sides stood their ground , but after the battle , the American commander , General Jacob Brown , pulled back to Fort George while the British did not pursue them . The outnumbered Americans withdrew but withstood a prolonged Siege of Fort Erie . The British tried to storm Fort Erie on August 14 , 1814 , but suffered heavy losses losing 950 killed , wounded and captured compared to only 84 dead and wounded on the American side . The British suffered heavy casualties in a failed assault and were weakened by exposure and shortage of supplies in their siege lines . Eventually the British raised the siege , but American Major General George Izard took over command on the Niagara front and followed up only halfheartedly . An American raid along the Grand River destroyed many farms that weakened British logistics . In October 1814 the American advanced into Upper Canada , engaged in skirmishes at Cook 's Mill , but pulled back when they heard that the new British warship , HMS St. Lawrence armed with 104 guns , which had been launched in Kingston that September was on its way . The Americans lacked provisions , and eventually destroyed the Fort Erie and retreated across the Niagara . War of 1812 Re-enactment , Old Fort Erie , Ontario Meanwhile , following the abdication of Napoleon , 15,000 British troops were sent to North America under four of Wellington 's ablest brigade commanders . Fewer than half were veterans of the Peninsula and the rest came from garrisons . Prévost was ordered to neutralize American power on the lakes by burning Sackets Harbor , gain naval control of Lake Erie , Lake Ontario and the Upper Lakes , and defend Lower Canada from attack . He did defend Lower Canada but otherwise failed to achieve his objectives . Given the late season he decided to invade New York State . His army outnumbered the American defenders of Plattsburgh , but he was worried about his flanks so he decided he needed naval control of Lake Champlain . On the lake , the British squadron under Captain George Downie and the Americans under Master Commandant Thomas Macdonough were more evenly matched . On reaching Plattsburgh , Prévost delayed the assault until the arrival of Downie in the hastily completed 36 - gun frigate HMS Confiance . Prévost forced Downie into a premature attack , but then unaccountably failed to provide the promised military backing . Downie was killed and his naval force defeated at the naval Battle of Plattsburgh in Plattsburgh Bay on September 11 , 1814 . The Americans now had control of Lake Champlain ; Theodore Roosevelt later termed it `` the greatest naval battle of the war '' . The successful land defence was led by Alexander Macomb . To the astonishment of his senior officers , Prévost then turned back , saying it would be too hazardous to remain on enemy territory after the loss of naval supremacy . Prévost was recalled and in London , a naval court - martial decided that defeat had been caused principally by Prévost 's urging the squadron into premature action and then failing to afford the promised support from the land forces . Prévost died suddenly , just before his own court - martial was to convene . Prévost 's reputation sank to a new low , as Canadians claimed that their militia under Brock did the job and he failed . Recently , however , historians have been more kindly , measuring him not against Wellington but against his American foes . They judge Prévost 's preparations for defending the Canadas with limited means to be energetic , well - conceived , and comprehensive ; and against the odds , he had achieved the primary objective of preventing an American conquest . To the east , the northern part of Massachusetts , soon to be Maine , was invaded . Fort Sullivan at Eastport was taken by Sir Thomas Hardy on July 11 . Castine , Hampden , Bangor , and Machias were taken , and Castine became the main British base till April 15 , 1815 , when the British left , taking £ 10,750 in tariff duties , the `` Castine Fund '' which was used to found Dalhousie University . Eastport was not returned to the United States till 1818 . American West , 1813 -- 14 The Upper Mississippi River during the War of 1812 . 1 : Fort Bellefontaine U.S. headquarters ; 2 : Fort Osage , abandoned 1813 ; 3 : Fort Madison , defeated 1813 ; 4 : Fort Shelby , defeated 1814 ; 5 : Battle of Rock Island Rapids , July 1814 and the Battle of Credit Island , Sept. 1814 ; 6 : Fort Johnson , abandoned 1814 ; 7 : Fort Cap au Gris and the Battle of the Sink Hole , May 1815 Plans of the original Fort Madison in 1810 , captured by British - supported Indians in 1813 The Mississippi River valley was the western frontier of the United States in 1812 . The territory acquired in the Louisiana Purchase of 1803 contained almost no U.S. settlements west of the Mississippi except around Saint Louis and a few forts and trading posts . Fort Bellefontaine , an old trading post converted to a U.S. Army post in 1804 , served as regional headquarters . Fort Osage , built in 1808 along the Missouri was the western-most U.S. outpost , it was abandoned at the start of the war . Fort Madison , built along the Mississippi in what is now Iowa , was also built in 1808 , and had been repeatedly attacked by British - allied Sauk since its construction . In September 1813 Fort Madison was abandoned after it was attacked and besieged by natives , who had support from the British . This was one of the few battles fought west of the Mississippi . Black Hawk played a leadership role . Little of note took place on Lake Huron in 1813 , but the American victory on Lake Erie and the recapture of Detroit isolated the British there . During the ensuing winter , a Canadian party under Lieutenant Colonel Robert McDouall established a new supply line from York to Nottawasaga Bay on Georgian Bay . When he arrived at Fort Mackinac with supplies and reinforcements , he sent an expedition to recapture the trading post of Prairie du Chien in the far west . The Siege of Prairie du Chien ended in a British victory on July 20 , 1814 . Earlier in July , the Americans sent a force of five vessels from Detroit to recapture Mackinac . A mixed force of regulars and volunteers from the militia landed on the island on August 4 . They did not attempt to achieve surprise , and at the brief Battle of Mackinac Island , they were ambushed by natives and forced to re-embark . The Americans discovered the new base at Nottawasaga Bay , and on August 13 , they destroyed its fortifications and the schooner Nancy that they found there . They then returned to Detroit , leaving two gunboats to blockade Mackinac . On September 4 , these gunboats were taken unawares and captured by British boarding parties from canoes and small boats . These Engagements on Lake Huron left Mackinac under British control . The British garrison at Prairie du Chien also fought off another attack by Major Zachary Taylor . In this distant theatre , the British retained the upper hand until the end of the war , through the allegiance of several indigenous tribes that received British gifts and arms , enabling them to take control of parts of what is now Michigan and Illinois , as well as the whole of modern Wisconsin . In 1814 U.S. troops retreating from the Battle of Credit Island on the upper Mississippi attempted to make a stand at Fort Johnson , but the fort was soon abandoned , along with most of the upper Mississippi valley . After the U.S. was pushed out of the Upper Mississippi region , they held on to eastern Missouri and the St. Louis area . Two notable battles fought against the Sauk were the Battle of Cote Sans Dessein , in April 1815 , at the mouth of the Osage River in the Missouri Territory , and the Battle of the Sink Hole , in May 1815 , near Fort Cap au Gris . At the conclusion of peace , Mackinac and other captured territory was returned to the United States . At the end of the war , some British officers and Canadians objected to handing back Prairie du Chien and especially Mackinac under the terms of the Treaty of Ghent . However , the Americans retained the captured post at Fort Malden , near Amherstburg , until the British complied with the treaty . Fighting between Americans , the Sauk , and other indigenous tribes continued through 1817 , well after the war ended in the east . Atlantic theatre Opening strategies Map of Chesapeake 's first cruise during the War of 1812 . Modern boundaries are shown . In 1812 , Britain 's Royal Navy was the world 's largest , with over 600 cruisers in commission and some smaller vessels . Although most of these were involved in blockading the French navy and protecting British trade against ( usually French ) privateers , the Royal Navy still had 85 vessels in American waters , counting all British Navy vessels in North American and the Caribbean waters . However , the Royal Navy 's North American squadron based in Halifax , Nova Scotia ( which bore the brunt of the war ) , numbered one small ship of the line , seven frigates , nine smaller sloops and brigs along with five schooners . By contrast , the United States Navy comprised 8 frigates , 14 smaller sloops and brigs , and no ships of the line . The U.S. had embarked on a major shipbuilding program before the war at Sackets Harbor , New York and continued to produce new ships . Three of the existing American frigates were exceptionally large and powerful for their class , larger than any British frigate in North America . Whereas the standard British frigate of the time was rated as a 38 gun ship , usually carrying up to 50 guns , with its main battery consisting of 18 - pounder guns ; USS Constitution , President , and United States , in comparison , were rated as 44 - gun ships , carrying 56 -- 60 guns with a main battery of 24 - pounders . USS Constitution defeats HMS Guerriere , a significant event during the war . The British strategy was to protect their own merchant shipping to and from Halifax , Nova Scotia , and the West Indies , and to enforce a blockade of major American ports to restrict American trade . Because of their numerical inferiority , the American strategy was to cause disruption through hit - and - run tactics , such as the capture of prizes and engaging Royal Navy vessels only under favourable circumstances . Days after the formal declaration of war , however , it put out two small squadrons , including the frigate President and the sloop Hornet under Commodore John Rodgers , and the frigates United States and Congress , with the brig Argus under Captain Stephen Decatur . These were initially concentrated as one unit under Rodgers , who intended to force the Royal Navy to concentrate its own ships to prevent isolated units being captured by his powerful force . Large numbers of American merchant ships were returning to the United States with the outbreak of war , and if the Royal Navy was concentrated , it could not watch all the ports on the American seaboard . Rodgers ' strategy worked , in that the Royal Navy concentrated most of its frigates off New York Harbor under Captain Philip Broke , allowing many American ships to reach home . But , Rodgers ' own cruise captured only five small merchant ships , and the Americans never subsequently concentrated more than two or three ships together as a unit . Single - ship actions HMS Shannon leading the captured American frigate Chesapeake into Halifax , Nova Scotia ( 1813 ) Meanwhile , Constitution , commanded by Captain Isaac Hull , sailed from Chesapeake Bay on July 12 . On July 17 , Broke 's British squadron gave chase off New York , but Constitution evaded her pursuers after two days . After briefly calling at Boston to replenish water , on August 19 , Constitution engaged the British frigate HMS Guerriere . After a 35 - minute battle , Guerriere had been dis - masted and captured and was later burned . Constitution earned the nickname `` Old Ironsides '' following this battle as many of the British cannonballs were seen to bounce off her hull . Hull returned to Boston with news of this significant victory . On October 25 , United States , commanded by Captain Decatur , captured the British frigate HMS Macedonian , which he then carried back to port . At the close of the month , Constitution sailed south , now under the command of Captain William Bainbridge . On December 29 , off Bahia , Brazil , she met the British frigate HMS Java . After a battle lasting three hours , Java struck her colors and was burned after being judged unsalvageable . Constitution , however , was relatively undamaged in the battle . The successes gained by the three big American frigates forced Britain to construct five 40 - gun , 24 - pounder heavy frigates and two `` spar - decked '' frigates ( the 60 - gun HMS Leander and HMS Newcastle ) and to razee three old 74 - gun ships of the line to convert them to heavy frigates . The Royal Navy acknowledged that there were factors other than greater size and heavier guns . The United States Navy 's sloops and brigs had also won several victories over Royal Navy vessels of approximately equal strength . While the American ships had experienced and well - drilled volunteer crews , the enormous size of the overstretched Royal Navy meant that many ships were shorthanded and the average quality of crews suffered . The constant sea duties of those serving in North America interfered with their training and exercises . The capture of the three British frigates stimulated the British to greater exertions . More vessels were deployed on the American seaboard and the blockade tightened . On June 1 , 1813 , off Boston Harbor , the frigate Chesapeake , commanded by Captain James Lawrence , was captured by the British frigate HMS Shannon under Captain Philip Broke . Lawrence was mortally wounded and famously cried out , `` Do n't give up the ship ! Hold on , men ! '' The two frigates were of near - identical size . Chesapeake 's crew was larger but most had not served or trained together . British citizens reacted with celebration and relief that the run of American victories had ended . Notably , this action was by ratio one of the bloodiest contests recorded during this age of sail , with more dead and wounded than HMS Victory suffered in four hours of combat at Trafalgar . Captain Lawrence was killed and Captain Broke was so badly wounded that he never again held a sea command . Marines aboard USS Wasp engage HMS Reindeer June 1814 In January 1813 , the American frigate Essex , under the command of Captain David Porter , sailed into the Pacific to harass British shipping . Many British whaling ships carried letters of marque allowing them to prey on American whalers , and they nearly destroyed the industry . Essex challenged this practice . She inflicted considerable damage on British interests before she and her tender , USS Essex Junior ( armed with twenty guns ) were captured off Valparaíso , Chile , by the British frigate HMS Phoebe and the sloop HMS Cherub on March 28 , 1814 . In the summer of 1813 , the brig USS Argus raided the waters off the British isles , taking 19 British merchant ships until she was captured after a battle with HMS Pelican on August 14 , 1813 . The British Cruizer - class brig - sloops did not fare well against the American ship - rigged sloops of war . Hornet and Wasp constructed before the war were notably powerful vessels , and the Frolic class built during the war even more so ( although Frolic was trapped and captured by a British frigate and a schooner ) . The British brig - rigged sloops tended to suffer fire to their rigging more frequently than the American ship - rigged sloops . In addition , the ship - rigged sloops could back their sails in action , giving them another advantage in manoeuvring . Following their earlier losses , the British Admiralty instituted a new policy that the three American heavy frigates should not be engaged except by a ship of the line or smaller vessels in squadron strength . The capture of President by a squadron of four British frigates in January 1815 is an example of this , although the vast majority of damage done to President was done by a single ship and President surrendered to that specific ship first , only to try and escape and rest of the squadron catch up . But , a month later , Constitution engaged and captured two smaller British warships , HMS Cyane and HMS Levant , sailing in company , although the combined tonnage and number of men onboard Cyane and Levant was only two thirds of that of Constitution . Success in single ship battles raised American morale after the repeated failed invasion attempts in Upper and Lower Canada . However these single ship victories had no military effect on the war at sea as they did not alter the balance of naval power , impede British supplies and reinforcements , or even raise insurance rates for British trade . During the war , the United States Navy captured 165 British merchantmen while the Royal Navy captured 1,400 American merchantmen . After the Little Belt Affair , the USS President became one of the most prized targets of the Royal Navy . President was eventually captured on 15th January 1815 . Commodore Stephen Decatur had surrendered President to HMS Endymion while a squadron of British ships was close behind Endymion , and then tried to escape only to be caught up by the rest of the squadron . Decatur would then give conflicting accounts to the British and to the Americans . The American would claim President was overwhelmed by a squadron of superior force , while the British would claim President was taken by a smaller British warship in a frigate duel . In reality it was something in - between . President 's only option was to escape the larger squadron and had succeeded in doing so except for Endymiom . Hence the engagement was not fought as a duel , but rather as chase in which would result in President being unable to escape Endymion and in turn surrendering to the smaller Endymion . The extent of the constroversy created by the engagement suggests it was a significant battle at the time . Indeed , the United States had lost its flagship and its finest warship . To the British , the 1576 ton , 24 - pounder President was evidence that the American 44 - gun frigate was clearly far more powerful than the 1067 ton , 18 - pounder British frigate . This restored honor to the British after the Americans had claimed the frigate actions of the first year of the war were of equal force , as this now was clearly not the case . While the Americans would celebrate their victory in New Orleans , the British would celebrate the taking of the USS President . Privateering The operations of American privateers proved a more significant threat to British trade than the U.S. Navy . They operated throughout the Atlantic and continued until the close of the war , most notably from ports such as Baltimore . American privateers reported taking 1300 British merchant vessels , compared to 254 taken by the U.S. Navy . although the insurer Lloyd 's of London reported that only 1,175 British ships were taken , 373 of which were recaptured , for a total loss of 802 . The Canadian historian Carl Benn wrote that American privateers took 1 , 344 British ships , of which 750 were retaken by the British . However the British were able to limit privateering losses by the strict enforcement of convoy by the Royal Navy and by capturing 278 American privateers . Due to the massive size of the British merchant fleet , American captures only affected 7.5 % of the fleet , resulting in no supply shortages or lack of reinforcements for British forces in North America . Of 526 American privateers , 148 were captured by the Royal Navy and only 207 ever took a prize . Due to the large size of their navy , the British did not rely as much on privateering . The majority of the 1,407 captured American merchant ships were taken by the Royal Navy . The war was the last time the British allowed privateering , since the practice was coming to be seen as politically inexpedient and of diminishing value in maintaining its naval supremacy . However privateering remained popular in British colonies . It was the last hurrah for privateers in Bermuda who vigorously returned to the practice after experience in previous wars . The nimble Bermuda sloops captured 298 American ships . Privateer schooners based in British North America , especially from Nova Scotia took 250 American ships and proved especially effective in crippling American coastal trade and capturing American ships closer to shore than the Royal Navy cruisers . Blockade Captain Broke leads the boarding party to USS Chesapeake The naval blockade of the United States began informally in 1812 and expanded to cut off more ports as the war progressed . Twenty ships were on station in 1812 and 135 were in place by the end of the conflict . In March 1813 , the Royal Navy punished the Southern states , who most vocal about annexing British North America by blockading Charleston , Port Royal , Savannah and New York city was well . However , as additional ships were sent to North America in 1813 , the Royal Navy was able to tighten the blockade and extend it , first to the coast south of Narragansett by November 1813 and to the entire American coast on May 31 , 1814 . In May 1814 , following the abdication of Napoleon , and the end of the supply problems with Wellington 's army , New England was blockaded . The British government , having need of American foodstuffs for its army in Spain , benefited from the willingness of the New Englanders to trade with them , so no blockade of New England was at first attempted . The Delaware River and Chesapeake Bay were declared in a state of blockade on December 26 , 1812 . Illicit trade was carried on by collusive captures arranged between American traders and British officers . American ships were fraudulently transferred to neutral flags . Eventually , the U.S. government was driven to issue orders to stop illicit trading ; this put only a further strain on the commerce of the country . The overpowering strength of the British fleet enabled it to occupy the Chesapeake and to attack and destroy numerous docks and harbours . The blockade of American ports later tightened to the extent that most American merchant ships and naval vessels were confined to port . The American frigates USS United States and Macedonian ended the war blockaded and hulked in New London , Connecticut . The USS United States and USS Macedonian attempted to set sail to raid British shipping in the Caribbean , but were forced to turn back when confronted with a British squadron , and by the end of the war , the United States had six frigates and four ships - of - the - line sitting in port . Some merchant ships were based in Europe or Asia and continued operations . Others , mainly from New England , were issued licences to trade by Admiral Sir John Borlase Warren , commander in chief on the American station in 1813 . This allowed Wellington 's army in Spain to receive American goods and to maintain the New Englanders ' opposition to the war . The blockade nevertheless resulted in American exports decreasing from $130 million in 1807 to $7 million in 1814 . Most of these were food exports that ironically went to supply their enemies in Britain or British colonies . The blockade had a devastating effect on the American economy with the value of American exports and imports falling from $114 million in 1811 down to $20 million by 1814 while the US Customs took in $13 million in 1811 and $6 million in 1814 , despite the fact that Congress had voted to double the rates . The British blockade further damaged the American economy by forcing merchants to abandon the cheap and fast coastal trade to the slow and more expensive inland roads . In 1814 , only 1 out of 14 American merchantmen risked leaving port as a high probability that any ship leaving port would be seized . As the Royal Navy base that supervised the blockade , Halifax profited greatly during the war . From that base British privateers seized many French and American ships and sold their prizes in Halifax . Freeing and recruiting slaves The British Royal Navy 's blockades and raids allowed about 4,000 African Americans to escape slavery by fleeing American plantations to find freedom aboard British ships , migrants known , as regards those who settled in Canada , as the Black Refugees . The blockading British fleet in Chesapeake Bay received increasing numbers of enslaved black Americans during 1813 . By British government order they were treated as free persons when reaching British hands . Alexander Cochrane 's proclamation of April 2 , 1814 , invited Americans who wished to emigrate to join the British , and though not explicitly mentioning slaves was taken by all as addressed to them . About 2,400 of the escaped slaves and their families who were carried on ships of the Royal Navy following their escape settled in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick during and after the war . From May 1814 , younger men among the volunteers were recruited into a new Corps of Colonial Marines . They fought for Britain throughout the Atlantic campaign , including the Battle of Bladensburg and the attacks on Washington , D.C. and Battle of Baltimore , later settling in Trinidad after rejecting British government orders for transfer to the West India Regiments , forming the community of the Merikins . The slaves who escaped to the British represented the largest emancipation of African Americans before the American Civil War . Occupation of Maine Maine , then part of Massachusetts , was a base for smuggling and illegal trade between the U.S. and the British . Until 1813 the region was generally quiet except for privateer actions near the coast . In September 1813 , there was a notable naval action when the U.S. Navy 's brig Enterprise fought and captured the Royal Navy brig Boxer off Pemaquid Point . The first British assault came in July 1814 , when Sir Thomas Masterman Hardy took Moose Island ( Eastport , Maine ) without a shot , with the entire American garrison of Fort Sullivan -- which became the British Fort Sherbrooke -- surrendering . Next , from his base in Halifax , Nova Scotia , in September 1814 , Sir John Coape Sherbrooke led 3,000 British troops in the `` Penobscot Expedition '' . In 26 days , he raided and looted Hampden , Bangor , and Machias , destroying or capturing 17 American ships . He won the Battle of Hampden ( losing two killed while the Americans lost one killed ) . Retreating American forces were forced to destroy the frigate Adams . The British occupied the town of Castine and most of eastern Maine for the rest of the war , re-establishing the colony of New Ireland . The Treaty of Ghent returned this territory to the United States , though Machias Seal Island has remained in dispute . The British left in April 1815 , at which time they took ₤ 10,750 obtained from tariff duties at Castine . This money , called the `` Castine Fund '' , was used to establish Dalhousie University , in Halifax , Nova Scotia . Chesapeake campaign and `` the Star - Spangled Banner '' Following their victory at the Battle of Bladensburg , the British entered Washington D.C. The strategic location of the Chesapeake Bay near America 's new national capital , Washington , D.C. on the major tributary of the Potomac River , made it a prime target for the British and their Royal Navy and the King 's Army . Starting in March 1813 , a squadron under Rear Admiral George Cockburn started a blockade of the mouth of the Bay at Hampton Roads harbour and raided towns along the Bay from Norfolk , Virginia , to Havre de Grace , Maryland . On July 4 , 1813 , Commodore Joshua Barney , a Revolutionary War naval hero , convinced the U.S. Navy Department to build the Chesapeake Bay Flotilla , a squadron of twenty barges powered by small sails or oars ( sweeps ) to defend the Chesapeake Bay . Launched in April 1814 , the squadron was quickly cornered in the Patuxent River , and while successful in harassing the Royal Navy , they were powerless to stop the British campaign that ultimately led to the `` Burning of Washington '' . This expedition , led by Cockburn and General Robert Ross , was carried out between August 19 and 29 , 1814 , as the result of the hardened British policy of 1814 ( although British and American commissioners had convened peace negotiations at Ghent in June of that year ) . As part of this , Admiral Warren had been replaced as commander in chief by Admiral Alexander Cochrane , with reinforcements and orders to coerce the Americans into a favourable peace . Burning of Washington , August 1814 A force of 2,500 soldiers under General Ross had just arrived in Bermuda aboard HMS Royal Oak , three frigates , three sloops and ten other vessels . Released from the Peninsular War in Spain and Portugal by British victory , the British intended to use them for diversionary raids along the coasts of Maryland and Virginia . In response to Prévost 's request , they decided to employ this force , together with the naval and military units already on the station , to strike at the `` Federal City '' of Washington , D.C. On August 24 , U.S. Secretary of War John Armstrong Jr. insisted that the British would attack Baltimore rather than Washington , even when units of the British Army , accompanied by major ships of the Royal Navy , were obviously on their way to the capital . The inexperienced American militia , which had congregated nearby at Bladensburg , Maryland , to protect the capital , were defeated in the Battle of Bladensburg , opening the route to Washington . While First Lady Dolley Madison saved valuables from the then named `` President 's House '' ( or `` President 's Palace '' ( executive mansion ) -- now the `` White House '' ) , Fourth President James Madison and the government with members of the Presidential Cabinet , fled to Virginia . Seeing that the Battle of Bladensburg , northeast of the town in rural Prince George 's County was not going well , Secretary of the Navy William Jones ordered Captain Thomas Tingey , commandant of the Washington Naval Yard on the Eastern Branch of the Potomac River ( now the Anacostia River ) , to set the facility ablaze to prevent the capture of American naval ships , buildings , shops and supplies . Tingey had overseen the Naval Yard 's planning and development since the national capital had been moved from Philadelphia to Washington in 1800 , and waited until the very last possible minute , nearly four hours after the order was given to execute it . The destruction included most of the facility as well as the nearly - completed frigate `` Columbia '' and the sloop `` Argus '' . The British commanders ate the supper that had been prepared for the President and his departmental secretaries after returning from hopeful glorious U.S. victory , before they burned the Executive Mansion ; American morale was reduced to an all - time low . The British viewed their actions as retaliation for the destructive American invasions and raids into Canada , most notably the Americans ' burning of York earlier in 1813 . Later that same evening , a furious storm ( some later weather experts called it a thunderstorm , almost a hurricane ) swept into Washington , D.C. , sending one or more tornadoes into the rough , unfinished town that caused more damage but finally extinguished the fires with torrential rains , leaving fire - blackened walls and partial ruins of the President 's House , The Capitol and Treasury Department that were set alight the first night . In addition , the combustibles used to finish off the Navy Yard destruction that the Americans had started , exploded , killing or maiming a large number of `` Red - Coats . '' The British left Washington , D.C. the day after the storm subsided . Having destroyed Washington 's public buildings , including the President 's Mansion and the Treasury , the British army and navy next moved several weeks later to capture Baltimore , forty miles northeast , a busy port and a key base for American privateers . However , by not immediately going overland to the port city they sneeringly called a `` nest of pirates '' , but returning to their ships anchored in the Patuxent River and proceeding later up to the Upper Bay , they gave the Baltimoreans plenty of time to reinforce their fortifications and gather regular U.S. Army and state militia troops from surrounding counties and states . The subsequent `` Battle for Baltimore '' began with the British landing on Sunday , September 12 , 1814 , at North Point , where the Baltimore harbour 's Patapsco River met the Chesapeake Bay , where they were met by American militia further up the `` Patapsco Neck '' peninsula . An exchange of fire began , with casualties on both sides . Major Gen. Robert Ross was killed by American snipers as he attempted to rally his troops in the first skirmish . The snipers were killed moments later , and the British paused , then continued to march northwestward to the stationed Maryland and Baltimore City militia units deployed further up Long Log Lane on the peninsula at `` Godly Wood '' where the later Battle of North Point was fought for several afternoon hours in a musketry and artillery duel under command of British Col. Arthur Brooke and American commander for the Maryland state militia and its Third Brigade ( or `` Baltimore City Brigade '' ) , Brig. Gen. John Stricker . The British also planned to simultaneously attack Baltimore by water on the following day , September 13 , to support their military now arrayed facing the massed , heavily dug - in and fortified American units of approximately 15,000 with about a hundred cannon gathered along the eastern heights of the city named `` Loudenschlager 's Hill '' ( later `` Hampstead Hill '' - now part of Patterson Park ) . These overall Baltimore defences had been planned in advance and foreseen by the state militia commander , Maj. Gen. Samuel Smith , who had been set in charge of the Baltimore defences instead of the discredited U.S. Army commander for the Mid-Atlantic's 10th Military District ( following the debacle the previous month at Bladensburg ) , William H. Winder. Smith had been earlier a Revolutionary War officer and commander , then wealthy city merchant and U.S. Representative , Senator and later Mayor of Baltimore . The `` Red Coats '' were unable to immediately reduce Fort McHenry , at the entrance to Baltimore Harbor to allow their ships to provide heavier naval gunfire to support their troops to the northeast . An artist 's rendering of the bombardment at Fort McHenry , where Francis Scott Key placed off - shore in a U.S. truce ship was inspired to write the four - stanza poem he originally titled `` The Defence of Fort McHenry '' , which later when set to music became named `` The Star - Spangled Banner '' , adopted as the national anthem in 1931 . At the bombardment of Fort McHenry , the British naval guns , mortars and revolutionary new `` Congreve rockets '' had a longer range than the American cannon onshore , and the ships mostly stood off out of the Americans ' range , bombarding the fort , which returned very little fire and was not too heavily damaged during the onslaught except for a burst over a rear brickwall knocking out some fieldpieces and resulting in a few casualties . Despite however the heavy bombardment , casualties in the fort were slight and the British ships eventually realized that they could not force the passage to attack Baltimore in coordination with the land force . After a last ditch night feint and barge attack during the heavy rain storm at the time led by Capt . Charles Napier around the fort up the Middle Branch of the river to the west which was split and misdirected partly in the storm , then turned back with heavy casualties by alert gunners at supporting western batteries Fort Covington and Battery Babcock , so the British called off the attack and sailed downriver to pick up their army which had retreated from the east side of Baltimore . All the lights were extinguished in Baltimore the night of the attack , and the fort was bombarded for 25 hours . The only light was given off by the exploding shells over Fort McHenry , illuminating the flag that was still flying over the fort . The defence of the fort inspired the American lawyer Francis Scott Key to write `` Defence of Fort M'Henry '' , a poem that was set to music as `` The Star - Spangled Banner '' . Southern theatre Creek war Main article : Creek War Before 1813 , the war between the Creeks ( or Muscogee ) had been largely an internal affair sparked by the ideas of Tecumseh farther north in the Mississippi Valley . A faction known as the Red Sticks , so named for the color of their war paint , had broken away from the rest of the Creek Confederacy , which wanted peace with the United States . The Red Sticks were allied with Tecumseh , who about a year before 1813 had visited the Creeks and encouraged greater resistance to the Americans . The Creek Nation was a trading partner of the United States actively involved with Spanish and British trade as well . The Red Sticks , as well as many southern Muscogeean people like the Seminole , had a long history of alliance with the Spanish and British Empires . This alliance helped the North American and European powers protect each other 's claims to territory in the south . The Battle of Burnt Corn between Red Sticks and U.S. troops , occurred in the southern parts of Alabama on July 27 , 1813 . It prompted the state of Georgia as well as the Mississippi territory militia to immediately take major action against Creek offensives . The Red Sticks chiefs gained power in the east along the Alabama , Coosa , and Tallapoosa Rivers -- Upper Creek territory . The Lower Creek lived along the Chattahoochee River . Many Creeks tried to remain friendly to the United States , and some were organized by federal Indian Agent Benjamin Hawkins to aid the 6th Military District under General Thomas Pinckney and the state militias . The United States combined forces were large . At its peak the Red Stick faction had 4,000 warriors , only a quarter of whom had muskets . On August 30 , 1813 , Red Sticks , led by chiefs Red Eagle and Peter McQueen , attacked Fort Mimms , north of Mobile , the only American - held port in the territory of West Florida . The attack on Fort Mimms resulted in the death of 400 settlers and became an ideological rallying point for the Americans . The Fort Mims massacre in 1813 . The Creek warriors attacked the fort , and killed a total of 400 to 500 people . The Indian frontier of western Georgia was the most vulnerable but was partially fortified already . From November 1813 to January 1814 , Georgia 's militia and auxiliary Federal troops - from the Creek and Cherokee Indian nations and the states of North Carolina and South Carolina -- organized the fortification of defences along the Chattahoochee River and expeditions into Upper Creek territory in present - day Alabama . The army , led by General John Floyd , went to the heart of the `` Creek Holy Grounds '' and won a major offensive against one of the largest Creek towns at Battle of Autosee , killing an estimated two hundred people . In November , the militia of Mississippi with a combined 1200 troops attacked the `` Econachca '' encampment ( `` Battle of Holy Ground '' ) on the Alabama River . Tennessee raised a militia of 5,000 under Major Generals Andrew Jackson and Brigadier General John Coffee and won the battles of Tallushatchee and Talladega in November 1813 . Jackson suffered enlistment problems in the winter . He decided to combine his force with that of the Georgia militia . However , from January 22 -- 24 , 1814 , while on their way , the Tennessee militia and allied Muscogee were attacked by the Red Sticks at the Battles of Emuckfaw and Enotachopo Creek . Jackson 's troops repelled the attackers , but outnumbered , were forced to withdraw to his base at Fort Strother . In January Floyd 's force of 1,300 state militia and 400 Creek Indians moved to join the U.S forces in Tennessee , but were attacked in camp on the Calibee Creek by Tuckaubatchee Indians on the 27th . Jackson 's force increased in numbers with the arrival of U.S. Army soldiers and a second draft of Tennessee state militia and Cherokee and Creek allies swelled his army to around 5,000 . In March 1814 they moved south to attack the Creek . On March 27 , Jackson decisively defeated the Creek Indian force at Horseshoe Bend , killing 800 of 1,000 Creeks at a cost of 49 killed and 154 wounded out of approximately 2,000 American and Cherokee forces . The American army moved to Fort Jackson on the Alabama River . On August 9 , 1814 , the Upper Creek chiefs and Jackson 's army signed the `` Treaty of Fort Jackson '' . The most of western Georgia and part of Alabama was taken from the Creeks to pay for expenses borne by the United States . The Treaty also `` demanded '' that the `` Red Stick '' insurgents cease communicating with the Spanish or British , and only trade with U.S. - approved agents . British aid to the Red Sticks arrived after the end of the Napoleonic Wars in April 1814 and after Admiral Sir Alexander Cochrane assumed command from Admiral Warren in March . The Creek promised to join any body of ' troops that should aid them in regaining their lands , and suggesting an attack on the tower off Mobile . ' In April 1814 the British established an outpost on the Apalachicola River at Prospect Bluff ( Fort Gadsden ) . Cochrane sent a company of Royal Marines , the vessels HMS Hermes and HMS Carron , commanded by Edward Nicolls , with further supplies to meet the Indians . In addition to training the Indians , Nicolls was tasked to raise a force from escaped slaves , as part of the Corps of Colonial Marines . In July 1814 , General Jackson complained to the Governor of Pensacola , Mateo Gonzalez Manrique , that combatants from the Creek War were being harboured in Spanish territory , and made reference to the British presence on Spanish soil . Although he gave an angry reply to Jackson , Manrique was alarmed at the weak position he found himself in . He appealed to the British for help , with Woodbine arriving on July 28 , and Nicolls arriving at Pensacola on August 24 . The first engagement of the British and their Creek allies against the Americans on the Gulf Coast was the attack on Fort Bowyer September 14 , 1814 . Captain William Percy tried to take the U.S. fort , hoping that would enable the British to move on Mobile and block U.S. trade and encroachment on the Mississippi . After the Americans repulsed Percy 's forces , the British established a military presence of up to 200 Marines at Pensacola . In November , Jackson 's force of 4,000 men took the town in November . This underlined the superiority of numbers of Jackson 's force in the region . The U.S force moved to New Orleans in late 1814 . Jackson 's army of 1,000 regulars and 3,000 to 4,000 militia , pirates and other fighters , as well as civilians and slaves built fortifications south of the city . Gulf coast Main article : Battle of New Orleans American forces under General James Wilkinson , who was himself earning $4,000 per year as a Spanish secret agent , took the Mobile area -- formerly part of West Florida -- from the Spanish in March 1813 ; this would be the only territory permanently gained by the U.S. during the war . The Americans built Fort Bowyer , a log and earthenwork fort with 14 guns , on Mobile Point . At the end of 1814 , the British launched a double offensive in the South weeks before the Treaty of Ghent was signed . On the Atlantic coast , Admiral George Cockburn was to close the Intracoastal Waterway trade and land Royal Marine battalions to advance through Georgia to the western territories . On the Gulf coast , Admiral Alexander Cochrane would move on the new state of Louisiana and the Mississippi Territory . Admiral Cochrane 's ships reached the Louisiana coast December 9 , and Cockburn arrived in Georgia December 14 . The Battle of New Orleans , January 1815 On January 8 , 1815 , a British force of 8,000 under General Edward Pakenham attacked Jackson 's defences in New Orleans . The Battle of New Orleans was an American victory , as the British failed to take the fortifications on the East Bank . The British suffered high casualties : 291 dead , 1262 wounded , and 484 captured or missing whereas American casualties were 13 dead , 39 wounded , and 19 missing . It was hailed as a great victory across the U.S. , making Jackson a national hero and eventually propelling him to the presidency . The American garrison at Fort St. Philip endured ten days of bombardment from Royal Navy guns , which was a final attempt to invade Louisiana ; British ships sailed away from the Mississippi River on January 18 . However , it was not until January 27 , 1815 , that the army had completely rejoined the fleet , allowing for their departure . After New Orleans , the British tried to take Mobile a second time ; General John Lambert laid siege for five days and took the fort , winning the Second Battle of Fort Bowyer on February 12 , 1815 . HMS Brazen brought news of the Treaty of Ghent the next day , and the British abandoned the Gulf coast . In January 1815 , Admiral Cockburn succeeded in blockading the southeastern coast by occupying Camden County , Georgia . The British quickly took Cumberland Island , Fort Point Peter , and Fort St. Tammany in a decisive victory . Under the orders of his commanding officers , Cockburn 's forces relocated many refugee slaves , capturing St. Simons Island as well , to do so . During the invasion of the Georgia coast , an estimated 1,485 people chose to relocate in British territories or join the military . In mid-March , several days after being informed of the Treaty of Ghent , British ships finally left the area . Postwar fighting In May 1815 , a band of British - allied Sauk , unaware that the war had ended months before , attacked a small band of U.S. soldiers northwest of St. Louis . Intermittent fighting , primarily with the Sauk , continued in the Missouri Territory well into 1817 , although it is unknown if the Sauk were acting on their own or on behalf of British agents . Several uncontacted isolated warships continued fighting well into 1815 and were the last American forces to take offensive action against the British . Treaty of Ghent Main article : Treaty of Ghent Factors leading to the peace negotiations By 1814 , both sides had either achieved their main war goals or were weary of a costly war that offered little but stalemate . They both sent delegations to a neutral site in Ghent , Flanders ( now part of Belgium ) . The negotiations began in early August and concluded on December 24 , when a final agreement was signed ; both sides had to ratify it before it could take effect . Meanwhile , both sides planned new invasions . In 1814 the British began blockading the United States , and brought the American economy to near bankruptcy , forcing it to rely on loans for the rest of the war . American foreign trade was reduced to a trickle . The parlous American economy was thrown into chaos with prices soaring and unexpected shortages causing hardship in New England which was considering secession . The Hartford Convention led to widespread fears that the New England states might attempt to leave the Union , which was exaggerated as most New Englanders did not wish to leave the Union and merely wanted an end to a war which was bringing much economic hardship , suggested that the continuation of the war might threaten the union . But also to a lesser extent British interests were hurt in the West Indies and Canada that had depended on that trade . Although American privateers found chances of success much reduced , with most British merchantmen now sailing in convoy , privateering continued to prove troublesome to the British , as shown by high insurance rates . British landowners grew weary of high taxes , and colonial interests and merchants called on the government to reopen trade with the U.S. by ending the war . Negotiations and peace At last in August 1814 , peace discussions began in the neutral city of Ghent . Both sides began negotiations warily The British diplomats stated their case first , demanding the creation of an Indian barrier state in the American Northwest Territory ( the area from Ohio to Wisconsin ) . It was understood the British would sponsor this Indian state . The British strategy for decades had been to create a buffer state to block American expansion . Britain demanded naval control of the Great Lakes and access to the Mississippi River . The Americans refused to consider a buffer state and the proposal was dropped . Although article IX of the treaty included provisions to restore to Natives `` all possessions , rights and privileges which they may have enjoyed , or been entitled to in 1811 '' , the provisions were unenforceable . The Americans ( at a later stage ) demanded damages for the burning of Washington and for the seizure of ships before the war began . American public opinion was outraged when Madison published the demands ; even the Federalists were now willing to fight on . The British had planned three invasions . One force burned Washington but failed to capture Baltimore , and sailed away when its commander was killed . In northern New York State , 10,000 British veterans were marching south until a decisive defeat at the Battle of Plattsburgh forced them back to Canada . Nothing was known of the fate of the third large invasion force aimed at capturing New Orleans and southwest . The Prime Minister wanted the Duke of Wellington to command in Canada and take control of the Great Lakes . Wellington said that he would go to America but he believed he was needed in Europe . Wellington emphasized that the war was a draw and the peace negotiations should not make territorial demands : I think you have no right , from the state of war , to demand any concession of territory from America ... You have not been able to carry it into the enemy 's territory , notwithstanding your military success and now undoubted military superiority , and have not even cleared your own territory on the point of attack . You can not on any principle of equality in negotiation claim a cessation of territory except in exchange for other advantages which you have in your power ... Then if this reasoning be true , why stipulate for the uti possidetis ? You can get no territory : indeed , the state of your military operations , however creditable , does not entitle you to demand any . The Prime Minister , Lord Liverpool , aware of growing opposition to wartime taxation and the demands of Liverpool and Bristol merchants to reopen trade with America , realized Britain also had little to gain and much to lose from prolonged warfare especially after the growing concern about the situation in Europe . After months of negotiations , against the background of changing military victories , defeats and losses , the parties finally realized that their nations wanted peace and there was no real reason to continue the war . The main focus on British foreign policy was the Congress of Vienna , during which British diplomats had clashed with Russian and Prussian diplomats over the terms of the peace with France , and there were fears at the Britain might have go to war with Russia and Prussia . Now each side was tired of the war . Export trade was all but paralyzed and after Napoleon fell in 1814 France was no longer an enemy of Britain , so the Royal Navy no longer needed to stop American shipments to France , and it no longer needed to impress more seamen . It had ended the practices that so angered the Americans in 1812 . The British were preoccupied in rebuilding Europe after the apparent final defeat of Napoleon . British negotiators were urged by Lord Liverpool to offer a status quo and dropped their demands for the creation of an Indian barrier state , which was in any case hopeless after the collapse of Tecumseh 's alliance . This allowed negotiations to resume at the end of October . British diplomats soon offered the status quo to the U.S. negotiators , who accepted them . Prisoners would be exchanged , and captured slaves returned to the United States or be paid for by Britain . On December 24 , 1814 the diplomats had finished and signed the Treaty of Ghent . The treaty was ratified by the British three days later on December 27 and arrived in Washington on February 17 where it was quickly ratified and went into effect , thus finally ending the war . The terms called for all occupied territory to be returned , the prewar boundary between Canada and the United States to be restored , and the Americans were to gain fishing rights in the Gulf of Saint Lawrence . The Treaty of Ghent failed to secure official British acknowledgement of American maritime rights or ending impressment . However , in the century of peace until World War I these rights were not seriously violated . The defeat of Napoleon made irrelevant all of the naval issues over which the United States had fought . The Americans had achieved their goal of ending the Indian threat ; furthermore the American armies had scored enough victories ( especially at New Orleans ) to satisfy honour and the sense of becoming fully independent from Britain . Losses and compensation British losses in the war were about 1,160 killed in action and 3,679 wounded ; 3,321 British died from disease . American losses were 2,260 killed in action and 4,505 wounded . While the number of Americans who died from disease is not known , it is estimated that about 15,000 died from all causes directly related to the war . These figures do not include deaths among Canadian militia forces or losses among native tribes . There have been no estimates of the cost of the American war to Britain , but it did add some £ 25 million to the national debt . In the U.S. , the cost was $105 million , about the same as the cost to Britain . The national debt rose from $45 million in 1812 to $127 million by the end of 1815 , although by selling bonds and treasury notes at deep discounts -- and often for irredeemable paper money due to the suspension of specie payment in 1814 -- the government received only $34 million worth of specie . Stephen Girard , the richest man in America at the time , was one of those who personally funded the United States government involvement in the war . In addition , at least 3,000 American slaves escaped to the British lines . Many other slaves simply escaped in the chaos of war and achieved their freedom on their own . The British settled some of the newly freed slaves in Nova Scotia . Four hundred freedmen were settled in New Brunswick . The Americans protested that Britain 's failure to return the slaves violated the Treaty of Ghent . After arbitration by the Tsar of Russia the British paid $1,204,960 in damages to Washington , which reimbursed the slaveowners . Memory and historiography Popular views During the 19th century the popular image of the war in the United States was of an American victory , and in Canada , of a Canadian victory . Each young country saw its self - perceived victory as an important foundation of its growing nationhood . The British , on the other hand , who had been preoccupied by Napoleon 's challenge in Europe , paid little attention to what was to them a peripheral and secondary dispute , a distraction from the principal task at hand . Canadian Canadian Voltigeurs in action at the Battle of the Chateauguay In British North America , the War of 1812 was seen by Loyalists as a victory , as they had claimed they had successfully defended their country from an American takeover . A long - term consequence of the Canadian militia 's success was the view widely held in Canada at least until the First World War that Canada did not need a regular professional army . While Canadian militia units had played instrumental roles in several engagements , such as at the Battle of the Chateauguay , it was the regular units of the British Army , including its `` Fencible '' regiments which were recruited within North America , which ensured that Canada was successfully defended . The U.S. Army had done poorly , on the whole , in several attempts to invade Canada , and the Canadians had shown that they would fight bravely to defend their territory . But the British did not doubt that the thinly populated territory would be vulnerable in a third war . `` We can not keep Canada if the Americans declare war against us again '' , Admiral Sir David Milne wrote to a correspondent in 1817 , although the Rideau Canal was built for just such a scenario . By the 21st century it was a forgotten war in Britain , although still remembered in Canada , especially Ontario . In a 2009 poll , 37 % of Canadians said the war was a Canadian victory , 9 % said the U.S. won , 15 % called it a draw , and 39 % said they knew too little to comment . A 2012 poll found that in a list of items that could be used to define Canadians ' identity , the belief that Canada successfully repelled an American invasion in the War of 1812 places second ( 25 % ) . American Today , American popular memory includes the British capture and the burning of Washington in August 1814 , which necessitated its extensive renovation . The fact that before the war , many Americans wanted to annex British North America was swiftly forgotten , and instead American popular memory focused on the victories at Baltimore , Plattsburg and New Orleans to present the war as a successful effort to assert American national honour , the `` second war of independence '' that saw the mighty British empire humbled and humiliated . In a speech before Congress on February 18 , 1815 , President Madison proclaimed the war a complete American victory . This interpretation of the war was and remains the dominant American view of the war The American newspaper the Niles Register in an editorial on September 14 , 1816 announced that the Americans had crushed the British , declaring `` ... we did virtually dictate the treaty of Ghent to the British '' . A minority of Americans , mostly associated with the Federalists saw the war as a defeat and an act of folly on Madison 's part , caustically asking if the Americans were `` dictating '' the terms of the treaty of Ghent , why the British Crown did not cede British North America to the United States ? However , the Federalist view of the war is not the mainstream American memory of the war . The view of Congressman George Troup who stated in a speech in 1815 that the Treaty of Ghent was `` the glorious termination of the most glorious war ever waged by any people '' is the way that most Americans remembered the war . Another memory is the successful American defence of Fort McHenry in September 1814 , which inspired the lyrics of the U.S. national anthem , `` The Star - Spangled Banner '' . The successful Captains of the U.S. Navy became popular heroes with plates with the likeness of Decatur , Steward , Hull , and others , becoming popular items . Ironically , many were made in England . The Navy became a cherished institution , lauded for the victories that it won against all odds . After engagements during the final actions of the war , U.S. Marines had acquired a well - deserved reputation as excellent marksmen , especially in ship - to - ship actions . Historians ' views Historians have differing and complex interpretations of the war . In recent decades the view of the majority of historians has been that the war ended in stalemate , with the Treaty of Ghent closing a war that had become militarily inconclusive . Neither side wanted to continue fighting since the main causes had disappeared and since there were no large lost territories for one side or the other to reclaim by force . Insofar as they see the war 's resolution as allowing two centuries of peaceful and mutually beneficial intercourse between the U.S. , Britain and Canada , these historians often conclude that all three nations were the `` real winners '' of the War of 1812 . These writers often add that the war could have been avoided in the first place by better diplomacy . It is seen as a mistake for everyone concerned because it was badly planned and marked by multiple fiascoes and failures on both sides , as shown especially by the repeated American failures to seize parts of Canada , and the failed British attack on New Orleans and upstate New York . However , other scholars hold that the war constituted a British victory and an American defeat . They argue that the British achieved their military objectives in 1812 ( by stopping the repeated American invasions of Canada ) and retaining their Canadian colonies . By contrast , they say , the Americans suffered a defeat when their armies failed to achieve their war goal of seizing part or all of Canada . Additionally , they argue the U.S. lost as it failed to stop impressment , which the British refused to repeal until the end of the Napoleonic Wars , arguing that the U.S. actions had no effect on the Orders in Council , which were rescinded before the war started . Historian Troy Bickham , author of The Weight of Vengeance : The United States , the British Empire , and the War of 1812 , sees the British as having fought to a much stronger position than the United States . `` Even tied down by ongoing wars with Napoleonic France , the British had enough capable officers , well - trained men , and equipment to easily defeat a series of American invasions of Canada . In fact , in the opening salvos of the war , the American forces invading Upper Canada were pushed so far back that they ended up surrendering Michigan Territory . The difference between the two navies was even greater . While the Americans famously ( shockingly for contemporaries on both sides of the Atlantic ) bested British ships in some one - on - one actions at the war 's start , the Royal Navy held supremacy throughout the war , blockading the U.S. coastline and ravaging coastal towns , including Washington , D.C. Yet in late 1814 , the British offered surprisingly generous peace terms despite having amassed a large invasion force of veteran troops in Canada , naval supremacy in the Atlantic , an opponent that was effectively bankrupt , and an open secessionist movement in New England . '' He considers that the British offered the United States generous terms , in place of their initially harsh terms ( which included massive forfeiture of land to Canada and the American Indians ) , because the `` reigning Liverpool ministry in Britain held a loose grip on power and feared the war - weary , tax - exhausted public . '' The war was also technically a British victory `` because the United States failed to achieve the aims listed in its declaration of war . '' A second minority view is that both the U.S. and Britain won the war -- that is , both achieved their main objectives , while the Indians were the losing party . The British won by losing no territories and achieving their great war goal , the total defeat of Napoleon . U.S. won by ( 1 ) securing her honor and successfully resisting a powerful empire once again , thus winning a `` second war of independence '' ; and ( 2 ) ending the threat of Indian raids and the British plan for a semi-independent Indian sanctuary -- thereby opening an unimpeded path for the United States ' westward expansion . Indians as losers Historians generally agree that the real losers of the War of 1812 were the Indians ( called First Nations in Canada ) . Hickey says : The big losers in the war were the Indians . As a proportion of their population , they had suffered the heaviest casualties . Worse , they were left without any reliable European allies in North America ... The crushing defeats at the Thames and Horseshoe Bend left them at the mercy of the Americans , hastening their confinement to reservations and the decline of their traditional way of life . The First Nations of the Old Northwest ( the modern Midwest ) had hoped to create an Indian state that would be a British protectorate . American settlers into the Middle West had been repeatedly blocked and threatened by Indian raids before 1812 , and that now came to an end . Throughout the war the British had played on terror of the tomahawks and scalping knives of their Indian allies ; it worked especially at Hull 's surrender at Detroit . By 1813 Americans had killed Tecumseh and broken his coalition of tribes . Jackson then defeated the Creek in the Southwest . Historian John Sugden notes that in both theatres , the Indians ' strength had been broken prior to the arrival of the major British forces in 1814 . The one campaign that the Americans had decisively won was the campaign in the Old Northwest , which put the British in a weak hand to insist upon an Indian state in the Old Northwest . Notwithstanding the sympathy and support from commanders ( such as Brock , Cochrane and Nicolls ) , the policymakers in London reneged in assisting the Indians , as making peace was a higher priority for the politicians . At the peace conference the British demanded an independent Indian state in the Midwest , but , although the British and their Indian allies maintained control over the territories in question ( i.e. most of the Upper Midwest ) , British diplomats did not press the demand after an American refusal , effectively abandoning their Indian allies . The withdrawal of British protection gave the Americans a free hand , which resulted in the removal of most of the tribes to Indian Territory ( present - day Oklahoma ) . In that sense according to historian Alan Taylor , the final victory at New Orleans had `` enduring and massive consequences '' . It gave the Americans `` continental predominance '' while it left the Indians dispossessed , powerless , and vulnerable . The Treaty of Ghent technically required the United States to cease hostilities and `` forthwith to restore to such Tribes or Nations respectively all possessions , rights and privileges which they may have enjoyed , or been entitled to in 1811 '' ; the United States ignored this article of the treaty and proceeded to expand into this territory regardless ; Britain was unwilling to provoke further war to enforce it . A shocked Henry Goulburn , one of the British negotiators at Ghent , remarked : Till I came here , I had no idea of the fixed determination which there is in the heart of every American to extirpate the Indians and appropriate their territory . The Creek War came to an end , with the Treaty of Fort Jackson being imposed upon the Indians . About half of the Creek territory was ceded to the United States , with no payment made to the Creeks . This was , in theory , invalidated by Article 9 of the Treaty of Ghent . The British failed to press the issue , and did not take up the Indian cause as an infringement of an international treaty . Without this support , the Indians ' lack of power was apparent and the stage was set for further incursions of territory by the United States in subsequent decades . Long - term consequences Main article : Results of the War of 1812 Neither side lost territory in the war , nor did the treaty that ended it address the original points of contention -- and yet it changed much between the United States of America and Britain . The Treaty of Ghent established the status quo ante bellum ; that is , there were no territorial losses by either side . The issue of impressment was made moot when the Royal Navy , no longer needing sailors , stopped impressment after the defeat of Napoleon . Except for occasional border disputes and the circumstances of the American Civil War , relations between the U.S. and Britain remained generally peaceful for the rest of the 19th century , and the two countries became close allies in the 20th century . The Rush -- Bagot Treaty between the United States and Britain was enacted in 1817 . It provided for the demilitarization of the Great Lakes and Lake Champlain , where many British naval arrangements and forts still remained . The treaty laid the basis for a demilitarized boundary and was indicative of improving relations between the United States and Great Britain in the period following the War of 1812 . It remains in effect to this day . Border adjustments between the U.S. and British North America were made in the Treaty of 1818 . Eastport , Massachusetts , was returned to the U.S. in 1818 ; it would become part of the new State of Maine in 1820 . A border dispute along the Maine -- New Brunswick border was settled by the 1842 Webster -- Ashburton Treaty after the bloodless Aroostook War , and the border in the Oregon Country was settled by splitting the disputed area in half by the 1846 Oregon Treaty . A further dispute about the line of the border through the island in the Strait of Juan de Fuca resulted in another almost bloodless standoff in the Pig War of 1859 . The line of the border was finally settled by an international arbitration commission in 1872 . United States The 1812 N Moore office tower , completed in 2013 near Washington D.C. , was named after the war . The U.S. suppressed the Native American resistance on its western and southern borders . The nation also gained a psychological sense of complete independence as people celebrated their `` second war of independence '' . Nationalism soared after the victory at the Battle of New Orleans . The opposition Federalist Party collapsed , and the Era of Good Feelings ensued . No longer questioning the need for a strong Navy , the U.S. built three new 74 - gun ships of the line and two new 44 - gun frigates shortly after the end of the war . ( Another frigate had been destroyed to prevent it being captured on the stocks . ) In 1816 , the U.S. Congress passed into law an `` Act for the gradual increase of the Navy '' at a cost of $1,000,000 a year for eight years , authorizing 9 ships of the line and 12 heavy frigates . The Captains and Commodores of the U.S. Navy became the heroes of their generation in the U.S. Decorated plates and pitchers of Decatur , Hull , Bainbridge , Lawrence , Perry , and Macdonough were made in Staffordshire , England , and found a ready market in the United States . Three of the war heroes used their celebrity to win national office : Andrew Jackson ( elected President in 1828 and 1832 ) , Richard Mentor Johnson ( elected Vice President in 1836 ) , and William Henry Harrison ( elected President in 1840 ) . During the war , New England states became increasingly frustrated over how the war was being conducted and how the conflict was affecting them . They complained that the U.S. government was not investing enough in the states ' defences militarily and financially , and that the states should have more control over their militias . The increased taxes , the British blockade , and the occupation of some of New England by enemy forces also agitated public opinion in the states . As a result , at the Hartford Convention ( December 1814 -- January 1815 ) Federalist delegates deprecated the war effort and sought more autonomy for the New England states . They did not call for secession but word of the angry anti-war resolutions appeared at the same time that peace was announced and the victory at New Orleans was known . The upshot was that the Federalists were permanently discredited and quickly disappeared as a major political force . This war enabled thousands of slaves to escape to British lines or ships for freedom , despite the difficulties . The planters ' complacency about slave contentment was shocked by their seeing slaves who would risk so much to be free . After the decisive defeat of the Creek Indians at the battle of Horseshoe Bend in 1814 , some Indian warriors escaped to join the Seminoles in Florida . The remaining Creek chiefs signed away about half their lands , comprising 23,000,000 acres , covering much of southern Georgia and two thirds of modern Alabama . The Creeks were now separated from any future help from the Spanish in Florida , or from the Choctaw and Chickasaw to the west . During the war the United States seized Mobile , Alabama , which was a strategic location providing oceanic outlet to the cotton lands to the north . Jackson invaded Florida in 1818 , demonstrating to Spain that it could no longer control that territory with a small force . Spain sold Florida to the United States in 1819 in the Adams - Onís Treaty following the First Seminole War . Pratt concludes : Thus indirectly the War of 1812 brought about the acquisition of Florida ... To both the Northwest and the South , therefore , the War of 1812 brought substantial benefits . It broke the power of the Creek Confederacy and opened to settlement a great province of the future Cotton Kingdom . British North America ( Canada ) Douglas Coupland 's ' Monument to the War of 1812 ' ( 2008 ) in Toronto ; depicts a larger - than - life Canadian soldier triumphing over an American ; both are depicted as metallic toy soldiers of the sort small children play with . Pro-British leaders demonstrated a strong hostility to American influences in western Canada ( Ontario ) after the war and shaped its policies , including a hostility to American - style republicanism . Immigration from the U.S. was discouraged , and favour was shown to the Anglican church as opposed to the more Americanized Methodist church . The Battle of York showed the vulnerability of Upper and Lower Canada . In the 1820s , work began on La Citadelle at Quebec City as a defence against the United States . Additionally , work began on the Halifax citadel to defend the port against foreign navies . From 1826 to 1832 , the Rideau Canal was built to provide a secure waterway not at risk from American cannon fire . To defend the western end of the canal , the British Army also built Fort Henry at Kingston . Indigenous Nations The Native Americans allied to the British lost their cause . The British proposal to create a `` neutral '' Indian zone in the American West was rejected at the Ghent peace conference and never resurfaced . After 1814 the natives , who lost most of their fur - gathering territory , became an undesirable burden to British policymakers who now looked to the United States for markets and raw materials . British agents in the field continued to meet regularly with their former American Indian partners , but they did not supply arms or encouragement and there were no American Indian campaigns to stop U.S. expansionism in the Midwest . Abandoned by their powerful sponsor , American Great Lakes - area Indians ultimately migrated or reached accommodations with the American authorities and settlers . Bermuda Bermuda had been largely left to the defences of its own militia and privateers before U.S. independence , but the Royal Navy had begun buying up land and operating from there in 1795 , as its location was a useful substitute for the lost U.S. ports . It originally was intended to be the winter headquarters of the North American Squadron , but the war saw it rise to a new prominence . As construction work progressed through the first half of the 19th century , Bermuda became the permanent naval headquarters in Western waters , housing the Admiralty and serving as a base and dockyard . The military garrison was built up to protect the naval establishment , heavily fortifying the archipelago that came to be described as the `` Gibraltar of the West '' . Defence infrastructure would remain the central leg of Bermuda 's economy until after World War II . Britain The war is seldom remembered in Great Britain . The massive ongoing conflict in Europe against the French Empire under Napoleon ensured that the War of 1812 against America was never seen as more than a sideshow to the main event by the British . Britain 's blockade of French trade had been entirely successful and the Royal Navy was the world 's dominant nautical power ( and would remain so for another century ) . While the land campaigns had contributed to saving Canada , the Royal Navy had shut down American commerce , bottled up the U.S. Navy in port and heavily suppressed privateering . British businesses , some affected by rising insurance costs , were demanding peace so that trade could resume with the U.S. The peace was generally welcomed by the British , though there was disquiet at the rapid growth of the U.S. However , the two nations quickly resumed trade after the end of the war and , over time , a growing friendship . Hickey argues that for Britain : the most important lesson of all ( was ) that the best way to defend Canada was to accommodate the United States . This was the principal rationale for Britain 's long - term policy of rapprochement with the United States in the nineteenth century and explains why they were so often willing to sacrifice other imperial interests to keep the republic happy .

Its goal is the interoperability of diverse communication systems with standard protocols . The model partitions a communication system into abstraction layers . The original version of the model defined seven layers . A layer serves the layer above it and is served by the layer below it . For example , a layer that provides error - free communications across a network provides the path needed by applications above it , while it calls the next lower layer to send and receive packets that comprise the contents of that path . Two instances at the same layer are visualized as connected by a horizontal connection in that layer . The model is a product of the Open Systems Interconnection project at the International Organization for Standardization ( ISO ) , maintained by the identification ISO / IEC 7498 - 1 .

These two international standards bodies each developed a document that defined similar networking models . In 1983 , these two documents were merged to form a standard called The Basic Reference Model for Open Systems Interconnection . The standard is usually referred to as the Open Systems Interconnection Reference Model , the OSI Reference Model , or simply the OSI model . It was published in 1984 by both the ISO , as standard ISO 7498 , and the renamed CCITT ( now called the Telecommunications Standardization Sector of the International Telecommunication Union or ITU - T ) as standard X. 200 . OSI had two major components , an abstract model of networking , called the Basic Reference Model or seven - layer model , and a set of specific protocols . The concept of a seven - layer model was provided by the work of Charles Bachman at Honeywell Information Services . Various aspects of OSI design evolved from experiences with the ARPANET , NPLNET , EIN , CYCLADES network and the work in IFIP WG6. 1 . The new design was documented in ISO 7498 and its various addenda . In this model , a networking system was divided into layers . Within each layer , one or more entities implement its functionality . Each entity interacted directly only with the layer immediately beneath it , and provided facilities for use by the layer above it . Protocols enable an entity in one host to interact with a corresponding entity at the same layer in another host . Service definitions abstractly described the functionality provided to an ( N ) - layer by an ( N - 1 ) layer , where N was one of the seven layers of protocols operating in the local host . The OSI standards documents are available from the ITU - T as the X. 200 - series of recommendations . Some of the protocol specifications were also available as part of the ITU - T X series . The equivalent ISO and ISO / IEC standards for the OSI model were available from ISO . Not all are free of charge . Description of OSI layers ( edit ) The recommendation X. 200 describes seven layers , labeled 1 to 7 . Layer 1 is the lowest layer in this model . <Th_colspan="5"> OSI Model <Th_colspan="2"> Layer Protocol data unit ( PDU ) Function Host layers 7 . Application Data High - level APIs , including resource sharing , remote file access 6 . Presentation Translation of data between a networking service and an application ; including character encoding , data compression and encryption / decryption 5 . Session Managing communication sessions , i.e. continuous exchange of information in the form of multiple back - and - forth transmissions between two nodes 4 . Transport Segment ( TCP ) / Datagram ( UDP ) Reliable transmission of data segments between points on a network , including segmentation , acknowledgement and multiplexing Media layers 3 . Network Packet Structuring and managing a multi-node network , including addressing , routing and traffic control 2 . Data link Frame Reliable transmission of data frames between two nodes connected by a physical layer 1 . Physical Bit Transmission and reception of raw bit streams over a physical medium At each level N , two entities at the communicating devices ( layer N peers ) exchange protocol data units ( PDUs ) by means of a layer N protocol . Each PDU contains a payload , called the service data unit ( SDU ) , along with protocol - related headers or footers . Data processing by two communicating OSI - compatible devices is done as such : The data to be transmitted is composed at the topmost layer of the transmitting device ( layer N ) into a protocol data unit ( PDU ) . The PDU is passed to layer N - 1 , where it is known as the service data unit ( SDU ) . At layer N - 1 the SDU is concatenated with a header , a footer , or both , producing a layer N - 1 PDU . It is then passed to layer N - 2 . The process continues until reaching the lowermost level , from which the data is transmitted to the receiving device . At the receiving device the data is passed from the lowest to the highest layer as a series of SDUs while being successively stripped from each layer 's header or footer , until reaching the topmost layer , where the last of the data is consumed . Some orthogonal aspects , such as management and security , involve all of the layers ( See ITU - T X. 800 Recommendation ) . These services are aimed at improving the CIA triad - confidentiality , integrity , and availability - of the transmitted data . In practice , the availability of a communication service is determined by the interaction between network design and network management protocols . Appropriate choices for both of these are needed to protect against denial of service . Layer 1 : physical layer ( edit ) This section may need to be rewritten entirely to comply with Wikipedia 's quality standards . You can help . The discussion page may contain suggestions . ( August 2017 ) The physical layer defines the electrical and physical specifications of the data connection . It defines the relationship between a device and a physical transmission medium ( for example , an electrical cable , an optical fiber cable , or a radio frequency link ) . This includes the layout of pins , voltages , line impedance , cable specifications , signal timing and similar characteristics for connected devices and frequency ( 5 GHz or 2.4 GHz etc . ) for wireless devices . It is responsible for transmission and reception of unstructured raw data in a physical medium . Bit rate control is done at the physical layer . It may define transmission mode as simplex , half duplex , and full duplex . It defines the network topology as bus , mesh , or ring being some of the most common . The physical layer is the layer of low - level networking equipment , such as some hubs , cabling , and repeaters . The physical layer is never concerned with protocols or other such higher - layer items . Examples of hardware in this layer are network adapters , repeaters , network hubs , modems , and fiber media converters . Layer 2 : data link layer ( edit ) The data link layer provides node - to - node data transfer -- a link between two directly connected nodes . It detects and possibly corrects errors that may occur in the physical layer . It defines the protocol to establish and terminate a connection between two physically connected devices . It also defines the protocol for flow control between them . IEEE 802 divides the data link layer into two sublayers : Medium access control ( MAC ) layer -- responsible for controlling how devices in a network gain access to a medium and permission to transmit data . Logical link control ( LLC ) layer -- responsible for identifying and encapsulating network layer protocols , and controls error checking and frame synchronization . The MAC and LLC layers of IEEE 802 networks such as 802.3 Ethernet , 802.11 Wi - Fi , and 802.15. 4 ZigBee operate at the data link layer . The Point - to - Point Protocol ( PPP ) is a data link layer protocol that can operate over several different physical layers , such as synchronous and asynchronous serial lines . The ITU - T G.hn standard , which provides high - speed local area networking over existing wires ( power lines , phone lines and coaxial cables ) , includes a complete data link layer that provides both error correction and flow control by means of a selective - repeat sliding - window protocol . Layer 3 : network layer ( edit ) The network layer provides the functional and procedural means of transferring variable length data sequences ( called datagrams ) from one node to another connected in `` different networks '' . A network is a medium to which many nodes can be connected , on which every node has an address and which permits nodes connected to it to transfer messages to other nodes connected to it by merely providing the content of a message and the address of the destination node and letting the network find the way to deliver the message to the destination node , possibly routing it through intermediate nodes . If the message is too large to be transmitted from one node to another on the data link layer between those nodes , the network may implement message delivery by splitting the message into several fragments at one node , sending the fragments independently , and reassembling the fragments at another node . It may , but does not need to , report delivery errors . Message delivery at the network layer is not necessarily guaranteed to be reliable ; a network layer protocol may provide reliable message delivery , but it need not do so . A number of layer - management protocols , a function defined in the management annex , ISO 7498 / 4 , belong to the network layer . These include routing protocols , multicast group management , network - layer information and error , and network - layer address assignment . It is the function of the payload that makes these belong to the network layer , not the protocol that carries them . Layer 4 : transport layer ( edit ) The transport layer provides the functional and procedural means of transferring variable - length data sequences from a source to a destination host , while maintaining the quality of service functions . The transport layer controls the reliability of a given link through flow control , segmentation / desegmentation , and error control . Some protocols are state - and connection - oriented . This means that the transport layer can keep track of the segments and re-transmit those that fail delivery . The transport layer also provides the acknowledgement of the successful data transmission and sends the next data if no errors occurred . The transport layer creates packets out of the message received from the application layer . Packetizing is the process of dividing a long message into smaller messages . OSI defines five classes of connection - mode transport protocols ranging from class 0 ( which is also known as TP0 and provides the fewest features ) to class 4 ( TP4 , designed for less reliable networks , similar to the Internet ) . Class 0 contains no error recovery , and was designed for use on network layers that provide error - free connections . Class 4 is closest to TCP , although TCP contains functions , such as the graceful close , which OSI assigns to the session layer . Also , all OSI TP connection - mode protocol classes provide expedited data and preservation of record boundaries . Detailed characteristics of TP0 - 4 classes are shown in the following table : Feature name TP0 TP1 TP2 TP3 TP4 Connection - oriented network Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Connectionless network No No No No Yes Concatenation and separation No Yes Yes Yes Yes Segmentation and reassembly Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Error recovery No Yes Yes Yes Yes Reinitiate connection No Yes No Yes No Multiplexing / demultiplexing over single virtual circuit No No Yes Yes Yes Explicit flow control No No Yes Yes Yes Retransmission on timeout No No No No Yes Reliable transport service No Yes No Yes Yes <Td_colspan="6"> If an excessive number of PDUs are unacknowledged . An easy way to visualize the transport layer is to compare it with a post office , which deals with the dispatch and classification of mail and parcels sent . A post office inspects only the outer envelope of mail to determine its delivery . Higher layers may have the equivalent of double envelopes , such as cryptographic presentation services that can be read by the addressee only . Roughly speaking , tunneling protocols operate at the transport layer , such as carrying non-IP protocols such as IBM 's SNA or Novell 's IPX over an IP network , or end - to - end encryption with IPsec . While Generic Routing Encapsulation ( GRE ) might seem to be a network - layer protocol , if the encapsulation of the payload takes place only at endpoint , GRE becomes closer to a transport protocol that uses IP headers but contains complete frames or packets to deliver to an endpoint . L2TP carries PPP frames inside transport packet . Although not developed under the OSI Reference Model and not strictly conforming to the OSI definition of the transport layer , the Transmission Control Protocol ( TCP ) and the User Datagram Protocol ( UDP ) of the Internet Protocol Suite are commonly categorized as layer - 4 protocols within OSI . Layer 5 : session layer ( edit ) The session layer controls the dialogues ( connections ) between computers . It establishes , manages and terminates the connections between the local and remote application . It provides for full - duplex , half - duplex , or simplex operation , and establishes checkpointing , adjournment , termination , and restart procedures . The OSI model made this layer responsible for graceful close of sessions , which is a property of the Transmission Control Protocol , and also for session checkpointing and recovery , which is not usually used in the Internet Protocol Suite . The session layer is commonly implemented explicitly in application environments that use remote procedure calls . Layer 6 : presentation layer ( edit ) The presentation layer establishes context between application - layer entities , in which the application - layer entities may use different syntax and semantics if the presentation service provides a mapping between them . If a mapping is available , presentation service data units are encapsulated into session protocol data units and passed down the protocol stack . This layer provides independence from data representation by translating between application and network formats . The presentation layer transforms data into the form that the application accepts . This layer formats data to be sent across a network . It is sometimes called the syntax layer . The presentation layer can include compression functions . The Presentation Layer negotiates the Transfer Syntax . The original presentation structure used the Basic Encoding Rules of Abstract Syntax Notation One ( ASN. 1 ) , with capabilities such as converting an EBCDIC - coded text file to an ASCII - coded file , or serialization of objects and other data structures from and to XML . ASN. 1 effectively makes an application protocol invariant with respect to syntax . Layer 7 : application layer ( edit ) The application layer is the OSI layer closest to the end user , which means both the OSI application layer and the user interact directly with the software application . This layer interacts with software applications that implement a communicating component . Such application programs fall outside the scope of the OSI model . Application - layer functions typically include identifying communication partners , determining resource availability , and synchronizing communication . When identifying communication partners , the application layer determines the identity and availability of communication partners for an application with data to transmit . The most important distinction in the application layer is the distinction between the application - entity and the application . For example , a reservation website might have two application - entities : one using HTTP to communicate with its users , and one for a remote database protocol to record reservations . Neither of these protocols have anything to do with reservations . That logic is in the application itself . The application layer per se has no means to determine the availability of resources in the network . Cross-layer functions ( edit ) Cross-layer functions are services that are not tied to a given layer , but may affect more than one layer . Examples include the following : Security service ( telecommunication ) as defined by ITU - T X. 800 recommendation . Management functions , i.e. functions that permit to configure , instantiate , monitor , terminate the communications of two or more entities : there is a specific application - layer protocol , common management information protocol ( CMIP ) and its corresponding service , common management information service ( CMIS ) , they need to interact with every layer in order to deal with their instances . Multiprotocol Label Switching ( MPLS ) MPLS , ATM , and X. 25 are 3a protocols . OSI divides the Network Layer into 3 roles : 3a ) Subnetwork Access , 3b ) Subnetwork Dependent Convergence and 3c ) Subnetwork Independent Convergence . It was designed to provide a unified data - carrying service for both circuit - based clients and packet - switching clients which provide a datagram - based service model . It can be used to carry many different kinds of traffic , including IP packets , as well as native ATM , SONET , and Ethernet frames . Sometimes one sees reference to a Layer 2.5 . This is a fiction create by those who are unfamiliar with the OSI Model and ISO 8648 , Internal Organization of the Network Layer in particular . ARP determines the mapping of an IPv4 address to the underlying MAC address . This is not a translation function . If it were IPv4 and the MAC address would be at the same layer . The implementation of the MAC protocol decodes the MAC PDU and delivers the User - Data to the IP - layer . Because Ethernet is a multi-access media , a device sending a PDU on an Ethernet segment needs to know what IP address maps to what MAC address . DHCP , DHCP assigns IPv4 addresses to new systems joining a network . There is no means to derive or obtain an IPv4 address from an Ethernet address . Domain Name Service is an Application Layer service which is used to look up the IP address of a given domain name . Once a reply is received from the DNS server , it is then possible to form a Layer 4 connection or flow to the desired host . There are no connections at Layer 3 . Cross MAC and PHY Scheduling is essential in wireless networks because of the time varying nature of wireless channels . By scheduling packet transmission only in favorable channel conditions , which requires the MAC layer to obtain channel state information from the PHY layer , network throughput can be significantly improved and energy waste can be avoided . Interfaces ( edit ) Neither the OSI Reference Model nor OSI protocols specify any programming interfaces , other than deliberately abstract service specifications . Protocol specifications precisely define the interfaces between different computers , but the software interfaces inside computers , known as network sockets are implementation - specific . For example , Microsoft Windows ' Winsock , and Unix 's Berkeley sockets and System V Transport Layer Interface , are interfaces between applications ( layer 5 and above ) and the transport ( layer 4 ) . NDIS and ODI are interfaces between the media ( layer 2 ) and the network protocol ( layer 3 ) . Interface standards , except for the physical layer to media , are approximate implementations of OSI service specifications .

RFC 3439 contains a section entitled `` Layering considered harmful '' . TCP / IP does recognize four broad layers of functionality which are derived from the operating scope of their contained protocols : the scope of the software application ; the end - to - end transport connection ; the internetworking range ; and the scope of the direct links to other nodes on the local network . Despite using a different concept for layering than the OSI model , these layers are often compared with the OSI layering scheme in the following way : The Internet application layer includes the OSI application layer , presentation layer , and most of the session layer . Its end - to - end transport layer includes the graceful close function of the OSI session layer as well as the OSI transport layer . The internetworking layer ( Internet layer ) is a subset of the OSI network layer . The link layer includes the OSI data link layer and sometimes the physical layers , as well as some protocols of the OSI 's network layer . These comparisons are based on the original seven - layer protocol model as defined in ISO 7498 , rather than refinements in such things as the internal organization of the network layer document . The presumably strict layering of the OSI model as it is usually described does not present contradictions in TCP / IP , as it is permissible that protocol usage does not follow the hierarchy implied in a layered model . Such examples exist in some routing protocols ( for example OSPF ) , or in the description of tunneling protocols , which provide a link layer for an application , although the tunnel host protocol might well be a transport or even an application - layer protocol in its own right .

He spent much of his time in the neighborhood 's local movie theater , adoring the music of such film composers as Bernard Herrmann and Franz Waxman . Stating that he hung out with the `` band geeks '' in high school , he started a ska band . After dropping out of high school , he followed his brother Richard to France , where he performed with Le Grand Magic Circus , an avant - garde musical theater group . He was never officially a student at the CalArts ; nonetheless , an instructor there encouraged him to continue learning . Elfman stated , `` He just laughed , and said , ' Sit . Play . ' I continued to sit and play for a couple years . '' At this time , his brother Richard was forming a new musical theater group . Career ( edit ) Oingo Boingo ( edit ) Main article : Oingo Boingo In 1972 Richard Elfman founded the American new wave band / performance art group , originally called The Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo . They played several shows throughout the 1970s until Richard Elfman left the band to become a filmmaker . As a send - off to the band 's original concept , Richard Elfman created the film Forbidden Zone based on their stage performances . Danny Elfman composed his first score for the film and played the role of Satan ( the other band members played his minions ) . By the time the movie was completed , they had taken the name Oingo Boingo and begun recording and touring as a rock group . From 1976 and on , it was led by Danny Elfman , until 1995 when they suddenly retired . The semi-theatrical music and comedy troupe had transformed into a ska - influenced new wave band in 1979 , and then changed again towards a more guitar - oriented rock sound , in the late 1980s. . Oingo Boingo , still led by Danny Elfman , performed as themselves in the 1986 movie Back to School . Additionally , Danny Elfman and Oingo Boingo guitarist Steve Bartek reunited on October 31 , 2015 to perform the song `` Dead Man 's Party '' -- `` for the first time in 20 years to the day '' , as Elfman said to the audience -- during an encore at a Halloween celebration at the Hollywood Bowl . Film and television scoring ( edit ) In 1985 , Tim Burton and Paul Reubens invited Elfman to write the score for their first feature film , Pee - wee 's Big Adventure . Elfman was apprehensive at first , because of his lack of formal training , but with orchestration assistance from Oingo Boingo guitarist and arranger Steve Bartek , he achieved his goal of emulating the mood of such composers as Nino Rota and Bernard Herrmann . In the booklet for the first volume of Music for a Darkened Theatre , Elfman described the first time he heard his music played by a full orchestra as one of the most thrilling experiences of his life . Elfman immediately developed a rapport with Burton and has gone on to score all but three of Burton 's major studio releases : Ed Wood , which was under production while Elfman and Burton were having a serious disagreement , Sweeney Todd , and most recently Miss Peregrine 's Home for Peculiar Children . Elfman also provided the singing voice for Jack Skellington in Tim Burton 's The Nightmare Before Christmas and the voices of both Barrel and the `` Clown with the Tear - Away Face '' . In 1990 , Elfman composed the iconic orchestra piece , ' Ice Dance ' , for the Tim Burton film Edward Scissorhands . Years later he provided the voice for Bonejangles the skeleton in Corpse Bride and the voices of the Oompa - Loompas in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory . One of Elfman 's notable compositions is The Simpsons Theme , which he wrote in 1989 . In 2002 Elfman composed the opening theme for the Sam Raimi Spider - Man series . This as well as altered versions made its way to all three Spider - Man movies . In 2004 Elfman composed Serenada Schizophrana for the American Composers Orchestra . It was conducted by John Mauceri on its recording and by Steven Sloane at its premiere at Carnegie Hall in New York City on February 23 , 2005 . After its premiere , it was recorded in studio and released onto SACD on October 3 , 2006 . The meeting with Mauceri proved fruitful as the composer was encouraged then to write a new concert piece for Mauceri and the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra . Elfman composed an `` overture to a non-existent musical '' and called the piece `` The Overeager Overture '' . He also continues to compose his film scores in addition to these other projects . In October 2013 , Elfman returned to the stage to sing his vocal parts to a handful of Nightmare Before Christmas songs as part of a concert titled Danny Elfman 's Music from the Films of Tim Burton . He composed the film score for Oz the Great and Powerful ( 2013 ) , and composed additional music for Avengers : Age of Ultron ( 2015 ) together with Brian Tyler . Elfman composed the score for all three of the Fifty Shades films ( 2015 - 2018 ) . Elfman 's film scores were featured in the 2017 production SCORE : A Film Music Documentary . Also that year , he took over the place of composer in the DCEU 's Justice League . Other projects ( edit ) In November 2010 , it was reported that Danny Elfman was writing the music for a planned musical based on the life of Harry Houdini , but , as of January 2012 , he was no longer attached to the project . In 2011 Elfman composed the music for the Cirque du Soleil show Iris , which was performed at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood from July 21 , 2011 to January 19 , 2013 . In October 2016 , Elfman composed a horror score for when Donald Trump `` loom ( ed ) '' behind Hillary Clinton at the second United States presidential election debates , 2016 . Musical influences ( edit ) The style of Elfman 's music has been influenced by modern composers including Béla Bartók , Philip Glass , Lou Harrison , Carl Orff , Harry Partch , Sergei Prokofiev , Maurice Ravel , Erik Satie , Igor Stravinsky , as well as Romantic composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky . Elfman has said that the first time he noticed film music was when he heard Bernard Herrmann 's score to The Day the Earth Stood Still as an eleven - year - old ; afterwards he became a fan of film music . Elfman 's influences in film music include the work of Erich Wolfgang Korngold , Max Steiner , David Tamkin , Franz Waxman , and Nino Rota , who served as a significant influence and the main inspiration for Elfman 's score for Pee - wee 's Big Adventure . Elfman 's work in pop music was influenced by The Specials , Madness , the Selecter , and XTC . Personal life ( edit ) As a teenager , Elfman dated his classmate Kim Gordon , who would later become one of the members of the rock band Sonic Youth . On November 29 , 2003 , Elfman married actress Bridget Fonda . They have a son , Oliver . In 1998 , Elfman scored A Simple Plan , starring Fonda . He is the uncle of actor Bodhi Elfman , who is married to actress Jenna Elfman . Elfman has been an atheist since the age of 11 or 12 . According to him , he is a cynicologist . Describing his politics during the 1980s , Elfman said , `` I 'm not a doomist . My attitude is always to be critical of what 's around you , but not ever to forget how lucky we are . I 've traveled around the world . I left thinking I was a revolutionary . I came back real right - wing patriotic . Since then , I 've kind of mellowed in between . '' In 2008 , he expressed support for Barack Obama and said that Sarah Palin was his `` worst nightmare '' . During the 18 years with Oingo Boingo , Elfman developed significant hearing damage as a result of the continuous exposure to the high noise levels involved in performing in a rock band . Afraid of worsening his condition , he decided to leave the band , saying that he would never return to that kind of performance . His impairment was so bad that he could not `` even sit in a loud restaurant or bar anymore . '' However , he found performing in front of orchestras more tolerable , and returned several times to reprise his live performance of Jack Skellington .

who won the most medals in the 2014 olympics
2014 Winter Olympics medal table - wikipedia 2014 Winter Olympics medal table Jump to : navigation , search World map showing the medal achievements of each country during the 2014 Winter Olympics Legend : Gold represents countries that won at least one gold medal Silver represents countries that won at least one silver medal Bronze represents countries that won at least one bronze medal Red represents countries that did not win any medals Grey represents countries that did not participate The 2014 Winter Olympics , officially known as the XXII Olympic Winter Games , were a winter multi-sport event held in Sochi , Russia , from 7 to 23 February . A total of 2,873 athletes from 88 nations participated in 98 events in 7 sports across 15 different disciplines . Initially , host nation Russia matched the Soviet Union 's 1976 achievement of thirteen gold medals , but 4 gold medals ( 13 overall ) were stripped later due to doping . Norway achieved the leading position in the medal table on 24 November 2017 , when Russia was stripped of two gold medals in bobsleigh . However , at the end of January 2018 , the Court of Arbitration for Sport cleared 28 Russian athletes and 9 out of 13 medals ( including 3 gold ) were reinstated , allowing Russia to return to the top position . The Netherlands achieved four podium sweeps in the speed skating , dominating the men 's 500 metres , men 's 5,000 metres , men 's 10,000 metres , and women 's 1,500 metres , surpassing the previous record of two podium sweeps . Slovenia won its first Winter Olympics gold medal ever , in alpine skiing . This was also the first Winter Olympic gold medal tie . Luger Armin Zöggeler of Italy became the first athlete to achieve six Winter Olympic medals over six consecutive games , all achieved at the men 's singles event . Speed skater Ireen Wüst from the Netherlands achieved five medals ( two gold and three silver ) , more than any other athlete . Korean - born Russian short track speed skater Viktor Ahn , Norwegian cross-country skier Marit Bjørgen , and Belarusian biathlete Darya Domracheva tied for the most gold medals , with three each .

See also : List of 2014 Winter Olympics medal winners The medal table is based on information provided by the International Olympic Committee ( IOC ) and is consistent with IOC convention in its published medal tables . By default , the table is ordered by the number of gold medals the athletes from a nation have won , where nation is an entity represented by a National Olympic Committee ( NOC ) . The number of silver medals is taken into consideration next and then the number of bronze medals . In the women 's downhill event in alpine skiing , two gold medals were awarded for a first place tie . No silver medal was awarded for the event . In the men 's super-G alpine skiing , two bronze medals were awarded for a third place tie .

On 9 December 2016 , a World Anti-Doping Agency report expanded upon the previous report and included the note that `` Two ( Russian ) ( sport ) athletes , winners of 4 Sochi Olympic Gold medals , and a female Silver medal winner in ( sport ) had samples with salt readings that were physiologically impossible '' and that `` Twelve ( Russian ) medal winning athletes ... from 44 examined samples had scratches and marks on the inside of the caps of their B sample bottles , indicating tampering '' . In December 2016 , following the release of the McLaren Report on Russian doping at the Sochi Olympics , the International Olympic Committee announced the initiation of an investigation of 28 Russian athletes at the Sochi Olympic Games . La Gazzetta dello Sport reported the names of 17 athletes , of whom 15 were among the 28 under investigation ( the number later rose to 46 ) . Three ladies artistic skaters were named as being under investigation . They are Adelina Sotnikova , the singles gold medalist , as well as pairs skaters Tatiana Volosozhar and Ksenia Stolbova . Volosozhar and Stolbova won gold and silver medals , respectively , in pairs skating . Both also won gold medals in the team event , which also puts the other eight team medalists at risk of losing their golds . In November 2017 the proceeding against Sotnikova was dropped . Six cross-country skiers were suspended from competition on the basis of the McLaren Report : Evgeniy Belov , Alexander Legkov , Alexey Petukhov , Maxim Vylegzhanin , Yulia Ivanova and Evgenia Shapovalova . Legkov won a gold and silver medals , and Vylegzhanin won three silver medals . The IOC disqualified all six from Sochi , imposed lifetime bans and , in the process , stripped Legkov 's and Vylegzhanin 's of the medals they had won in four events ( three individual medals and one team medal ) . On 1 February 2018 , the Court of Arbitration for Sport upheld five out of six appeals ( except for Ivanova whose appeal was overturned ) , and their results were restored . Nikita Kryukov , Alexander Bessmertnykh and Natalya Matveyeva were disqualified on 22 December 2017 . These decisions were also overturned by the CAS on 1 February 2018 . The IOC intends to appeal these decisions . The International Biathlon Union suspended two Russian biathletes who were in the Sochi games : Olga Vilukhina and Yana Romanova . Vilukhina won silver in sprint , and both women were on a relay team that won the silver medal . They were disqualified and stripped of their medals on 27 November 2017 . The International Bobsleigh and Skeleton Federation suspended four Russian skeleton sliders . They were Alexander Tretyakov , Elena Nikitina , Maria Orlova and Olga Potylitsina . Tretyakov won a gold medal , and Nikitina won a bronze . On 22 November 2017 , the IOC stripped these medals and imposed lifetime Olympic bans on all four . Seven Russian female ice hockey players were to have hearings before the Oswald Commission on 22 November 2017 . The identities of the seven players have not been revealed . Two of the seven are accused of submitting samples showing readings that were physically impossible to be held by a woman . The Russian women 's ice hockey team finished sixth at Sochi 2014 . On December 12 , 2017 six of them were disqualified . Tatiana Burina and Anna Shukina were also disqualified ten days later . On 24 November 2017 , the IOC disqualified and imposed lifetime Olympic bans on bobsledder Alexandr Zubkov who won two gold medals and speed skater Olga Fatkulina who won a silver medal . All their results were disqualified , resulting in Russia losing its first place in the medal standings . On 27 November 2017 , Russian bobsledders Aleksei Negodaylo , Dmitry Trunenkov , and skeleton racer Sergei Chudinov were sanctioned as well . Three other athletes who did n't win medals ( Alexander Kasjanov , Ilvir Huzin , Aleksei Pushkarev ) were banned on November 29 , 2017 . Biathlete Olga Zaitseva who won silver in a relay was disqualified on 1 December 2017 . Two other athletes , Anastasia Dotsenko and Yuliya Chekalyova , were also banned , bringing the total to 31 ( six Russian ice hockey players were sanctioned shortly after ) . Speed skaters Ivan Skobrev and Artyom Kuznetsov , lugers Albert Demchenko and Tatiana Ivanova , bobsledders Liudmila Udobkina and Maxim Belugin were disqualified on 22 December 2017 , bringing the total to 43 . Demchenko and Tatiana Ivanova were also stripped of their silver medals . As of January 2018 , the IOC had sanctioned 43 Russian athletes from the 2014 Winter Olympics and banned them from competing in the 2018 edition and all other future Olympic Games as part of the Oswald Commission . All but one of these athletes appealed against their bans to the Court of Arbitration for Sport . The court overturned the sanctions on 28 athletes meaning that their Sochi medals and results are reinstated but decided that there was sufficient evidence against 11 athletes to uphold their Sochi sanctions . The IOC said in a statement that `` the result of the CAS decision does not mean that athletes from the group of 28 will be invited to the Games . Not being sanctioned does not automatically confer the privilege of an invitation '' and that `` this ( case ) may have a serious impact on the future fight against doping '' . The IOC found it important to note that CAS Secretary General `` insisted that the CAS decision does not mean that these 28 athletes are innocent '' and that they would consider an appeal against the courts decision . The court also decided that none of the 39 athletes should be banned from all future Olympic Games , but only the 2018 Games . 3 Russian athletes are still waiting for their hearing which will be conducted after the 2018 Games .

In The Vampire Diaries , set in the fictional town of Mystic Falls , she is portrayed by Nina Dobrev . In the books , Elena was blonde , popular , selfish and a `` mean girl '' . However the show 's producers , Julie Plec and Kevin Williamson , felt that it was n't the direction they wanted to go with their heroine in The Vampire Diaries television series . Instead , she became a nicer , relatable and more of `` the girl next door '' type , until her life gets flipped upside down when she meets the Salvatores . In April 2015 , Nina Dobrev announced that she would be departing the series after the sixth season finale . Much of Elena 's story revolves around her relationships with vampires Stefan Salvatore and his older brother , Damon . It is revealed that Elena is a Petrova Doppelgänger , which is thus responsible for her being identical to her ancestor , Katherine Pierce ( née Katerina Petrova ) . This also has the implication of making her a supernatural creature . Dobrev portrayed the `` conniving '' Katherine as well , who is opposite of Elena . The actress stated that it has been a challenge distinguishing the two , and enjoys playing them both . In the television series 's fourth season , Elena becomes a vampire and deals with the struggles that come with her change . She took the cure and became human again towards the end of the sixth season . In the finale of the sixth season , Kai linked Elena to Bonnie 's life by magic . Elena will only wake up when Bonnie dies in around 60 years . She was locked inside the Salvatore tomb , which was changed in the seventh season , and was relocated in Brooklyn , New York . In late 2016 , when it was announced that the eighth season would be the final season , Dobrev was in talks about returning to the television series to reprise her role in the final episode . After much speculation . Dobrev 's return was confirmed on January 26 , 2017 , via an Instagram post . Dobrev appeared in the final episode of the show as both Elena and her evil doppelgänger Katherine Pierce .

My voice changes a little bit , I think , and even just mentally , I feel like I can get away with a lot more . `` '' -- Dobrev On March 9 , 2009 , it was announced that Bulgarian - born Canadian actress Nina Dobrev , known for her portrayal of Mia Jones on Degrassi : The Next Generation , had joined the cast of The Vampire Diaries as Elena . She was the second cast member to be announced following Steven R. McQueen , who plays Elena 's brother Jeremy Gilbert . Steve West Cinema Blend said the vampire brothers ' battle over Elena will wreak havoc on the entire town. `` . Executive producer Kevin Williamson recalled Dobrev auditioning while having the flu , which he described as the `` worst audition ever '' , and they `` did n't even look at her a second time '' . Dobrev went back home to Canada , yet , still wanting the part , she submitted a videotape audition , which saw her cast as Elena Gilbert . Dobrev said that after reading the script , she was drawn to Elena because she was `` this average girl who was damaged in many ways '' . Initially , she believed that she would be playing the `` bad girl '' Elena from the books , but the show wanted to go in a different direction for the character . After researching , Dobrev discovered she would also play Elena 's 534 - year - old vampire doppelgänger Katherine Pierce whose characteristics are the `` complete opposite '' . Dobrev described this as `` one of the rarest , coolest opportunities in television , to play two people on the same medium '' . She had confessed that she enjoys playing Katherine more than Elena . Dobrev stated that she changes her appearance to distinguish Elena from her doppelgänger , Katherine ; `` Changing my hair helps me transform , '' she told Glamour . Additionally , she said `` I think I have one of the coolest characters on the show -- I get to play two completely different people on opposite sides of the spectrum and I just have so much fun doing it '' . Dobrev felt that her biggest challenge on The Vampire Diaries was distinguishing Katherine and Elena , and found it `` interesting '' to create a whole new character . In the novels , Katherine originated from Germany . However , in the television series , she is Bulgarian , as is Dobrev , who can speak the language fluently . Dobrev said , `` The writers heard me speaking Bulgarian to my mom on the phone while I was on set one day . One thing led to the other and voila '' . Development ( edit ) Characterization ( edit ) Nina Dobrev , who plays Elena Gilbert , at PaleyFest 2014 In the books , Elena is considered `` one of the popular girls '' at her high school and always gets `` anything she wants '' . Executive producer of the television show , Julie Plec , said the Elena from the books was `` really kind of selfish '' . In The Vampire Diaries , Elena 's `` selfishness '' in the books as a human was never explored , because it `` did n't ever feel like a characteristic '' the show wanted for their heroine . Plec said `` We kind of abandoned that queen - bee popular complex that in a lot of ways defined early Elena in the books '' , while feeling that Elena 's actual flaw is her `` deep , deep connection to other people '' . In the books , Elena had blonde hair , but has brown hair in the television show . Describing Elena from the books , Dobrev said she is `` one of those mean girls that gets what she wants , popular ... and she 's blonde and blue eyed '' . Williamson told her that `` the angle we wanted to go for was the relatable , nice , girl next door , who the audience roots for '' . Katherine , on the other hand , is penned as a `` conniving , narcissistic , bitch '' . Describing Elena years later , Dobrev said she evolved from a `` younger , naive , sad , young girl '' to a `` strong woman '' . Romances ( edit ) Before The Vampire Diaries , Elena dated Matt Donovan ( Zach Roerig ) , who was unable to move past his feelings for her initially after their break - up . Elena began dating Stefan Salvatore ( Paul Wesley ) , and later discovered he was a vampire . As the episodes progressed , she developed a connection with Stefan 's adventurous brother Damon Salvatore ( Ian Somerhalder ) , who consumes human blood , unlike Stefan , who has an animal blood diet . Speaking about the different qualities Stefan and Damon bring to Elena , Dobrev said they have `` different qualities that are very appealing '' , which combined make `` the perfect man '' . She said `` Stefan is committed and sweet and protective and loving , and Damon is spontaneous and crazy and fun and exciting '' . Dobrev with her Vampire Diaries co-stars Paul Wesley ( Stefan ) and Ian Somerhalder ( Damon ) at the 2012 San Diego Comic - Con International . After Elena became a vampire , she became sired to Damon and they slept together . According to Plec during an interview with TVLine , Elena `` really believes what she feels is 100 percent genuine and real '' , and the couple `` wants to be together and realizes that they should n't , yet really wants to . So what do they do ? '' Stefan became heartbroken , feeling angry and betrayed , and lashed out at Damon and Elena . In the season 4 finale , an unsired Elena confirms that she is in love with Damon , and the two kiss passionately . At the end of season 6 , the two plan to become human , get married , and have children together , but their dream is abruptly compromised by Kai , who puts Elena into a magical coma . Damon remains entirely devoted to Elena throughout the remaining two seasons as Elena sleeps peacefully . In the season 8 finale , she is revealed to be happily married to Damon . Elena considers Damon to be the love of her life and her soulmate . Transition ( edit ) Executive producers Julie Plec and Kevin Williamson agreed that in the book series , Elena was turned into a vampire too early , which was around page 200 of The Awakening . Elena 's transition into a vampire was planned for two years . Plec said : `` That felt obviously too soon , and rushed , and we did n't want to make a show about a teenage girl who instantly becomes a vampire . But we always knew that her journey would take her there eventually '' . At the second season 's conclusion , Elena was nearly turned into a vampire . Dobrev was happy that she was n't , because she felt `` it would have been too soon '' , and also did n't think it was something Elena or she wanted . In the show 's third season , Elena has a brain hemorrhage which was initially thought to be a concussion , and begins to die . In what was described by the International Business Times as `` the moment Vampire Diaries fans have been waiting for '' , Elena had to choose whether to be driven to Damon or Stefan to say goodbye to . At the time , Klaus was killed , meaning all vampires sprouting from his bloodline also die , which includes Damon and Stefan . She picks to say goodbye to Stefan . However , all these vampires end up surviving when Klaus never really dies . To save her , Doctor Merideth Fell ( Torrey DeVitto ) fed Elena Damon 's blood . Rebekah Mikaelson kills Elena on Wickery Bridge , unaware of the vampire blood in her system . She woke up as a vampire at the end of the season . The Hollywood Reporter interviewed Plec , and described her transition as `` monumental changes '' which would have Elena in for a `` wild ride '' . Plec said Elena becoming a vampire is `` an awakening of a person who is about to go through a lot of changes '' , and `` she is going to evolve as a person and her relationships are going to evolve accordingly '' . While Stefan was afraid she would hurt someone , Damon thought it was inevitable and wanted to `` rip the band - aid off '' . Plec felt that `` She 's , unfortunately , not getting the same advice from the two people she values most in the world . It 's going to make it more difficult for her '' , while describing the situation as `` a whole new Elena and it 's a whole new day . It 's a different dynamic between the three of them especially '' . Television series ( edit ) Backstory ( edit ) Elena Gilbert is born on June 22 , 1992 in Mystic Falls , Virginia to John Gilbert ( David Anders ) and Isobel Flemming ( Mia Kirshner ) while they were still in highschool . With the help of John 's brother Grayson , Isobel and John flee town days later , leaving Grayson and his wife Miranda to adopt Elena as their own . A doctor , Grayson fakes a birth certificate so that it appeared Elena was his daughter with Miranda . The next year , Miranda and Grayson had a child of their own , Jeremy Gilbert . Elena dates her childhood friend Matt Donovan , who was her first love . On 23 May 2009 , Elena is picked up by her mother and father after getting in a fight with Matt while attending the party . The three of them later end up in a car accident , with their car driving off a bridge . Stefan Salvatore finds them , and saves Elena , but it was too late to save Grayson and Miranda , who died . It remained unknown for months who saved Elena , and it was considered a miracle that she lived . Her relationship with Matt ended when they broke up . Storyline ( edit ) Season 1 ( edit ) Elena , still empty after losing her parents , begins to fit back into school . She meets a mysterious new student named Stefan Salvatore . They connect instantly , and begin dating . She meets his older and malevolent brother , Damon . After researching , Elena realizes Stefan was alive in 1953 . It is later revealed that he is a 162 - year - old vampire . Damon also begins falling for Elena . After she and Stefan slept together , Elena finds a picture of a woman named Katherine Pierce who looks exactly like her . Stefan reveals that it is the woman who made him and Damon feud 145 years ago , and the person who turned them into vampires . He also told her that he is the person that saved her the night of her parents death . At the end of season one , Elena discovers that Grayson and Miranda were n't her biological parents , and that a woman named Isobel and her uncle John , who she grew up hating , were . Season 2 ( edit ) In season two , she learns that she is a Petrova doppelgänger , having an appearance just like Katherine Pierce , which means that she has to be sacrificed to release Klaus ' werewolf side . The sacrifice later happens , but Elena is saved , because John sacrificed himself for her after being put under a spell by Bonnie . However , her aunt Jenna is turned into a vampire and , as part of the sacrifice , is killed by Klaus , leaving Elena without a guardian . In the season two finale , while Damon is dying due to a werewolf bite , she forgives him for forcing her to drink his blood and kisses him with the thought that it might be Damon 's last day , however Damon gets cured by drinking Klaus ' blood . Season 3 ( edit ) In season three , Elena does everything in her power to make Stefan get his humanity back , which was turned off by Klaus as payment for saving Damon from a werewolf bite in the latter part of season two . Meanwhile , she grows closer to Damon while working together on saving Stefan and trying to defeat Klaus , eventually even sharing a kiss . She later admits to Stefan that she has feelings for Damon as well but that she never stopped loving Stefan . While in Denver together , Elena kisses Damon , later telling him that she does n't know how she feels about him . It is eventually revealed that Elena met Damon the night of her parent 's death , though he compelled her to forget . She eventually chooses Stefan in the season finale but before she can tell him , Elena drowns while having vampire blood in her system . During the last moments of season three , she awakens as a vampire in transition . Season 4 ( edit ) In season four , Elena is faced with the tough decision of whether to die or to feed on human blood so she can fully transition into a vampire . Elena , after realizing Stefan 's desperation to keep her alive , decides to complete her transition . Her relationship with Stefan ends , allowing her to begin a proper romance with Damon . Although , it is later revealed there is a sire bond between them . Sometime later whilst searching for the cure for vampirism , Jeremy is fed to the immortal Silas by Katherine . As a result , Damon used the sire bond to convince her to turn off her humanity , due to her incredible grief over losing her brother and the last remaining member of her family . Elena became ruthless without her emotions , going on killing sprees and being very hateful towards her friends . Towards the end of season four , Damon kills Matt in front of Elena to trigger her grief . After revealing that Matt had the Gilbert Ring on , Elena 's humanity was switched on and her emotions were focused on hate towards Katherine for killing Jeremy . Season four ended with Bonnie as a ghost after bringing Jeremy back to life and Elena fed Katherine the cure for vampirism in a moment of desperation as she was about to be killed . Elena had chosen Damon as the Salvatore that she loved . Season 5 ( edit ) In season five , Elena starts at Whitmore College and is happy after spending the summer with Damon . There she realises that Silas has taken Stefan 's place and that Stefan is in that safe in a river constantly drowning . She and Damon then find the safe , only to find a dead body there meaning that someone opened the safe and Stefan is a Ripper again . However , Qyetsiyah had fried Stefan 's brain causing him to suffer amnesia . While trying to bring him back , they almost kiss meaning that she still feels something for him . Qyetsiyah soon brings back Stefan 's memories and says that Elena and Stefan were always meant to be as the Universe had to unite the doppelgängers of Silas and Amara . This leaves Damon and Elena questioning their relationship . Later on she is kidnapped and experimented on by Wes Maxfield , and she learns that her father also used to experiment on vampires . Later , when Katherine is about to die as a result of all of her years catching up with her as a result of having the cure in her system , Katherine uses a spell and possesses Elena , a fact that her friends were initially unable to deduce . But once they did , they trapped Katherine and left her with no escape . Stefan stabbed her with the traveller dagger , but ghost Katherine reveals to Bonnie , shortly before trying to cross into the Other Side , that she had injected Dr. Maxfield 's enhanced ripper / werewolf virus into Elena 's body , infecting Elena . The gang is eventually able to find an antidote . She unfortunately loses trust in Damon , partly because he killed her friend Aaron , so they break up , but realise they can not survive being apart and get back together . Once Markos and his traveller army begin to take over Mystic Falls , setting an anti-magic barrier around the town , the gang comes up with a plan to take out the travellers by killing them all at the same time , overpowering the anchor to the Other Side AKA Bonnie and creating a possible way out of the now - collapsing Other Side . Elena and Damon drive into the gas - filled Mystic Grill with most of the travellers in it , blowing it up and killing most of the people in it , including Elena and Damon . She wakes up as a ghost and finds her body , sending her to Bonnie , where she passes to the Other Side , and she and many others are able to pass back to the land of the living afterwards . But the spell that allows this is broken before Damon passes back through , and as Bonnie is the anchor , she is a part of the Other Side and shall therefore disappear along with it . This leaves the gang mourning the loss of Damon and Bonnie in the season finale . Season 6 ( edit ) In season six , Elena starts back at Whitmore , and is unable to set foot in her hometown . She is also unable to recover from Damon 's death and starts lurking the borders of Mystic Falls in order to grab civilians , drink their blood , then compel them to forget , but as spirit magic no longer works in Mystic Falls , any of her victims who cross into the town remember the ordeal , putting her identity as a vampire at risk when one of her victims , Sarah , comes to town . Elena begs Alaric to compel her to forget that she ever loved Damon , which Alaric is able to do , due to him being an Enhanced Original , with the ability to compel other vampires . She eventually wears him down and asks her friends to never remind her once the compulsion had been done . After a number of failed attempts , Alaric successfully compels her to forget her love for Damon . She however leaves Alaric with some of her reminders of Damon , should she ever need them again . She is told of her former feelings for Damon soon afterwards , but decides to stay the way she is , as she does n't want to go back to being unhappy again . She starts to date her classmate , Liam . Once Damon comes back to life , Alaric tries to convince Elena to allow him to undo the compulsion , a decision she is reluctant to make . She eventually decides to have him undo it , but Alaric goes back to being human again after crossing into Mystic Falls , causing him to lose his vampire status ( he only stayed alive because his once fatal human injuries were healed ) , meaning he will not be able to do so . She is then left to finally come face - to - face with Damon and see if she 'll still feel the same way about him . They eventually rekindle their relationship , Elena takes the cure that Bonnie gave Damon . At Alaric 's wedding Kai ruins their wedding and casts a sleeping spell on Elena , linking her life to Bonnie 's . She makes a sacrifice to let Bonnie live out her life until it is her turn . She bids goodbye to her friends and loved ones before parting ways but knows that she will see Damon , Stefan and Caroline again one day . Season 7 ( edit ) Elena does n't make an appearance but is heard calling Damon 's name when he visits the Armory vault . It was a way of Sybill , the Siren , luring him into a trap . Season 8 ( edit ) In the final episode , Elena makes an appearance . When a weakened Bonnie dies from the sounding bell , she meets Elena in a dream - like forest . Elena hugs her and wonders if she really has died . Enzo appears and says it is n't her time and takes Bonnie back to the world of the living . When Bonnie wakes up , it was Stefan who resuscitated her . Elena , asleep , is then taken to the Mystic Falls High School by Katherine and places her in the boiler room . Stefan tries to rescue Elena , but Katherine had Kai spell the boiler room , so that Elena ca n't be taken out of the room . After Bonnie had deflected the hellfire back into the bell , Bonnie passes out . Elena wakes up and wanders the school . Stefan meets up with her . It looks like Bonnie has died , but in fact Elena is still sleeping and Stefan 's ghost came to visit her in her dream . He had taken the place of killing Katherine instead of Damon , since Damon is human after Stefan gave him the cure . He came to say goodbye . After a tearful hug and saying goodbye , Stefan goes into afterlife . Elena finally wakes up because Bonnie has broken the spell over her . Elena reunites with Damon and the rest of the gang . Elena gives Caroline the message Stefan whispered into her ear , saying he did hear her voice message and will love her forever . In the epilogue , Elena continued to studying medical school . After finishing her education , she went back to Mystic Falls and lived together with Damon , happily married for a long time . After living out her life , she crosses over to the afterlife where she finally reunites with her parents , Aunt Jenna and Uncle John . Reception ( edit ) Elena has received mainly positive reviews . Steve West of the Cinema Blend compared the story of The Vampire Diaries and the character of Elena to the popular vampire franchise , Twilight , and its protagonist Bella Swan . West said `` Clearly Elena is way hotter than Bella , she has two immortal vampires fighting over her '' . After she transitioned into a vampire , Carina Adly MacKenzie of Zap2it hoped that the `` fierce '' and `` ripper '' side of Elena would emerge when `` someone messes with the people she loves '' . McKenzie noted that when a person becomes a vampire , `` their strongest personality traits are heightened '' , and hoped that would n't see Elena 's `` compassion and selflessness '' double into `` helping old ladies with their groceries and nursing injured animals back to health '' . Robyn Ross of TV Guide also hoped that after Elena `` has had a taste for blood '' , she would lose control . Prior to her becoming a vampire , Ross thought she was less fun and `` slightly boring '' , and wanted Elena to follow her instinct and `` stop protecting everyone 's feelings '' . Elena 's romances with Stefan and Damon have become a popular craze with viewers , who have nicknamed them `` Stelena '' and `` Delena '' . Andy Swift of the website HollywoodLife praised Elena 's relationship with Damon , which was a combination of real love and a sired bond , hoping they would live `` happily ever after '' . Vlada Gelman of TVLine , however , felt that their romance was `` over in a rather mature way for a young love triangle '' and questioned whether Elena was `` ready to jump into a relationship with Damon right away '' while Stefan was still in the picture . Merchandising ( edit ) Tonner Doll Company , Inc. created dolls for Elena and Katherine along with Stefan and Damon , from 1864 .

Animal Farm - wikipedia Animal Farm Jump to : navigation , search This article is about the novel by George Orwell . For other uses , see Animal Farm ( disambiguation ) . Animal Farm <Td_colspan="2"> First edition cover Author George Orwell Original title Animal Farm : A Fairy Story Country United Kingdom Language English Genre Political satire Published 17 August 1945 ( Secker and Warburg , London , England ) Media type Print ( hardback & paperback ) Pages 112 ( UK paperback edition ) OCLC 53163540 Dewey Decimal 823 /. 912 20 LC Class PR6029. R8 A63 2003b Animal Farm is an allegorical novella by George Orwell , first published in England on 17 August 1945 . According to Orwell , the book reflects events leading up to the Russian Revolution of 1917 and then on into the Stalinist era of the Soviet Union . Orwell , a democratic socialist , was a critic of Joseph Stalin and hostile to Moscow - directed Stalinism , an attitude that was critically shaped by his experiences during the Spanish Civil War . The Soviet Union , he believed , had become a brutal dictatorship , built upon a cult of personality and enforced by a reign of terror . In a letter to Yvonne Davet , Orwell described Animal Farm as a satirical tale against Stalin ( `` un conte satirique contre Staline '' ) , and in his essay `` Why I Write '' ( 1946 ) , wrote that Animal Farm was the first book in which he tried , with full consciousness of what he was doing , `` to fuse political purpose and artistic purpose into one whole '' . The original title was Animal Farm : A Fairy Story ; U.S. publishers dropped the subtitle when it was published in 1946 , and only one of the translations during Orwell 's lifetime kept it . Other titular variations include subtitles like `` A Satire '' and `` A Contemporary Satire '' . Orwell suggested the title Union des républiques socialistes animales for the French translation , which abbreviates to URSA , the Latin word for `` bear '' , a symbol of Russia . It also played on the French name of the Soviet Union , Union des républiques socialistes soviétiques . Orwell wrote the book between November 1943 and February 1944 , when the UK was in its wartime alliance with the Soviet Union and the British people and intelligentsia held Stalin in high esteem , a phenomenon Orwell hated . The manuscript was initially rejected by a number of British and American publishers , including one of Orwell 's own , Victor Gollancz , which delayed its publication . It became a great commercial success when it did appear partly because international relations were transformed as the wartime alliance gave way to the Cold War . Time magazine chose the book as one of the 100 best English - language novels ( 1923 to 2005 ) ; it also featured at number 31 on the Modern Library List of Best 20th - Century Novels . It won a Retrospective Hugo Award in 1996 , and is included in the Great Books of the Western World selection .

When Major dies , two young pigs , Snowball and Napoleon , assume command and consider it a duty to prepare for the Rebellion . The animals revolt and drive the drunken and irresponsible farmer Mr. Jones from the farm , renaming it `` Animal Farm '' . They adopt the Seven Commandments of Animalism , the most important of which is , `` All animals are equal . '' Snowball teaches the animals to read and write , while Napoleon educates young puppies on the principles of Animalism . Food is plentiful , and the farm runs smoothly . The pigs elevate themselves to positions of leadership and set aside special food items , ostensibly for their personal health . Some time later , several men attack Animal Farm . Jones and his men are making an attempt to recapture the farm , aided by several other farmers who are terrified of similar animal revolts . Snowball and the animals , who are hiding in ambush , defeat the men by launching a surprise attack as soon as they enter the farmyard . Snowball 's popularity soars , and this event is proclaimed `` The Battle of the Cowshed '' . It is celebrated annually with the firing of a gun , on the anniversary of the Revolution . Napoleon and Snowball vie for pre-eminence . When Snowball announces his plans to modernize the farm by building a windmill , Napoleon has his dogs chase Snowball away and declares himself leader . Napoleon enacts changes to the governance structure of the farm , replacing meetings with a committee of pigs who will run the farm . Through a young pig named Squealer , Napoleon claims credit for the windmill idea . The animals work harder with the promise of easier lives with the windmill . When the animals find the windmill collapsed after a violent storm , Napoleon and Squealer convince the animals that Snowball is trying to sabotage their project . Once Snowball becomes a scapegoat , Napoleon begins to purge the farm with his dogs , killing animals he accuses of consorting with his old rival . When some animals recall the Battle of the Cowshed , Napoleon ( who was nowhere to be found during the battle ) frequently smears Snowball as a collaborator of Jones ' , while falsely representing himself as the hero of the battle . `` Beasts of England '' is replaced with an anthem glorifying Napoleon , who appears to be adopting the lifestyle of a man . The animals remain convinced that they are better off than they were under Mr. Jones . Mr Frederick , one of the neighbouring farmers , attacks the farm , using blasting powder to blow up the restored windmill . Though the animals win the battle , they do so at great cost , as many , including Boxer the workhorse , are wounded . Despite his injuries , Boxer continues working harder and harder , until he collapses while working on the windmill . Napoleon sends for a van to take Boxer to the veterinary surgeon , explaining that better care can be given there . Benjamin , the cynical donkey who `` could read as well as any pig '' , notices that the van belongs to a knacker and attempts a futile rescue . Squealer quickly assures the animals that the van had been purchased from the knacker by an animal hospital , and the previous owner 's signboard had not been repainted . In a subsequent report , Squealer reports sadly to the animals that Boxer died peacefully at the animal hospital ; the pigs hold a festival one day after Boxer 's death to further praise the glories of Animal Farm and have the animals work harder by taking on Boxer 's ways . However , the truth was that Napoleon had engineered the sale of Boxer to the knacker , allowing him and his inner circle to acquire money to buy whisky for themselves . ( In 1940s England , one way for farms to make money was to sell large animals to a knacker , who would kill the animal and boil its remains into animal glue . ) Years pass , and the windmill is rebuilt along with construction of another windmill , which makes the farm a good amount of income . However , the ideals which Snowball discussed , including stalls with electric lighting , heating and running water are forgotten , with Napoleon advocating that the happiest animals live simple lives . In addition to Boxer , many of the animals who participated in the Revolution are dead , as is Farmer Jones , who died in another part of England . The pigs start to resemble humans , as they walk upright , carry whips , and wear clothes . The Seven Commandments are abridged to a single phrase : `` All animals are equal but some animals are more equal than others '' . Napoleon holds a dinner party for the pigs and local farmers , with whom he celebrates a new alliance . He abolishes the practice of the revolutionary traditions and restores the name `` The Manor Farm '' . As the animals look from pigs to humans , they realise they can no longer distinguish between the two . Characters Pigs Old Major -- An aged prize Middle White boar provides the inspiration that fuels the rebellion . He is an allegorical combination of Karl Marx , one of the creators of communism , and Vladimir Lenin , the communist leader of the Russian Revolution and the early Soviet nation , in that he draws up the principles of the revolution . His skull being put on revered public display recalls Lenin , whose embalmed body was put on display . Napoleon -- `` A large , rather fierce - looking Berkshire boar , the only Berkshire on the farm , not much of a talker , but with a reputation for getting his own way '' . An allegory of Joseph Stalin , Napoleon is the main villain of Animal Farm . In the first French version of Animal Farm , Napoleon is called César , the French form of Caesar , although another translation has him as Napoléon . Snowball -- Napoleon 's rival and original head of the farm after Jones ' overthrow . He is mainly based on Leon Trotsky , but also combines elements from Lenin . Squealer -- A small , white , fat porker who serves as Napoleon 's second - in - command and minister of propaganda , holding a position similar to that of Vyacheslav Molotov . Minimus -- A poetic pig who writes the second and third national anthems of Animal Farm after the singing of `` Beasts of England '' is banned . The piglets -- Hinted to be the children of Napoleon and are the first generation of animals subjugated to his idea of animal inequality . The young pigs -- Four pigs who complain about Napoleon 's takeover of the farm but are quickly silenced and later executed , the first animals killed in Napoleon 's farm purge . Based on the Great Purge of Grigori Zinoviev , Lev Kamenev , Nikolai Bukharin , and Alexei Rykov . Pinkeye -- A minor pig who is mentioned only once ; he is the pig that tastes Napoleon 's food to make sure it is not poisoned , in response to rumours about an assassination attempt on Napoleon . Humans Mr Jones -- A heavy drinker who is the original owner of Manor Farm , a farm in disrepair with farmhands who often loaf on the job . He is an allegory of Russian Tsar Nicholas II , who abdicated following the February Revolution of 1917 and was murdered , along with the rest of his family , by the Bolsheviks on 17 July 1918 . The animals revolt after Jones drinks so much he does not care for the animals . Mr Frederick -- The tough owner of Pinchfield , a small but well - kept neighbouring farm , who briefly enters into an alliance with Napoleon . Animal Farm shares land boundaries with Pinchfield on one side and Foxwood on another , making Animal Farm a `` buffer zone '' between the two bickering farmers . The animals of Animal Farm are terrified of Frederick , as rumours abound of him abusing his animals and entertaining himself with cockfighting ( a likely allegory for the human rights abuses of Adolf Hitler ) . Napoleon enters into an alliance with Frederick in order to sell surplus timber that Pilkington also sought , but is enraged to learn Frederick paid him in counterfeit money . Shortly after the swindling , Frederick and his men invade Animal Farm , killing many animals and detonating the windmill . The brief alliance and subsequent invasion may allude to the Molotov -- Ribbentrop Pact and Operation Barbarossa . Mr Pilkington -- The easy - going but crafty and well - to - do owner of Foxwood , a large neighbouring farm overgrown with weeds . Unlike Frederick , Pilkington is wealthier and owns more land , but his farm is in need of care as opposed to Frederick 's smaller but more efficiently - run farm . Although on bad terms with Frederick , Pilkington is also concerned about the animal revolution that deposed Jones , and worried that this could also happen to him . Mr Whymper -- A man hired by Napoleon to act as the liaison between Animal Farm and human society . At first he is used to acquire necessities that can not be produced on the farm , such as dog biscuits and paraffin wax , but later he procures luxuries like alcohol for the pigs . Horses and donkeys Boxer -- A loyal , kind , dedicated , extremely strong , hard working , and respectable cart - horse , although quite naive and gullible . Boxer does a large share of the physical labour on the farm . He is shown to hold the belief that ' Napoleon is always right ' . At one point , he had challenged Squealer 's statement that Snowball was always against the welfare of the farm , earning him an attack from Napoleon 's dogs . But Boxer 's immense strength repels the attack , worrying the pigs that their authority can be challenged . Boxer has been compared to the Stakhanovite movement . He has been described as `` faithful and strong '' ; he believes any problem can be solved if he works harder . When Boxer is injured , Napoleon sells him to a local knacker to buy himself whisky , and Squealer gives a moving account falsifying Boxer 's death . Mollie -- A self - centred , self - indulgent and vain young white mare who quickly leaves for another farm after the revolution . She is only once mentioned again , in a manner similar to those who left Russia after the fall of the Tsar . Clover -- A gentle , caring female horse , who shows concern especially for Boxer , who often pushes himself too hard . Clover can read all the letters of the alphabet , but can not `` put words together '' . She seems to catch on to the sly tricks and schemes set up by Napoleon and Squealer . Benjamin -- A donkey , one of the oldest , wisest animals on the farm , and one of the few who can read properly . He is sceptical , temperamental and cynical : his most frequent remark is , `` Life will go on as it has always gone on -- that is , badly . '' The academic Morris Dickstein has suggested there is `` a touch of Orwell himself in this creature 's timeless skepticism '' and indeed , friends called Orwell `` Donkey George '' , `` after his grumbling donkey Benjamin , in Animal Farm . '' Other animals Muriel -- A wise old goat who is friends with all of the animals on the farm . She , like Benjamin and Snowball , is one of the few animals on the farm who can read . The puppies -- Offspring of Jessie and Bluebell , they were taken away at birth by Napoleon and reared by him to be his security force . Moses -- The raven , `` Mr. Jones 's especial pet , was a spy and a tale - bearer , but he was also a clever talker . '' Initially following Mrs. Jones into exile , he reappears several years later and resumes his role of talking but not working . He regales Animal Farm 's denizens with tales of a wondrous place beyond the clouds called `` Sugarcandy Mountain , that happy country where we poor animals shall rest forever from our labours ! '' Orwell portrays established religion as `` the black raven of priestcraft -- promising pie in the sky when you die , and faithfully serving whoever happens to be in power . '' Napoleon brings the raven back ( Ch . IX ) , as Stalin brought back the Russian Orthodox Church . The sheep -- They show limited understanding of the Animalism and the political atmosphere of the farm ; yet nonetheless they blindly support Napoleon 's ideals with vocal jingles during his speeches and meetings with Snowball . Some commentators have compared the sheep to representations of state controlled press . Their constant bleating of `` four legs good , two legs bad '' was used as a device to drown out any opposition ; analogous to simplistic headlines used in printed media of the age . Towards the latter section of the book , Squealer ( the propagandist ) trains the sheep to alter their slogan to `` four legs good , two legs better '' , which they dutifully do , symbolizing the state manipulation of media . The hens -- The hens are promised at the start of the revolution that they will get to keep their eggs , which are stolen from them under Mr Jones . However their eggs are soon taken from them under the premise of buying goods from outside Animal Farm . The hens are among the first to rebel against Napoleon . The cows -- The cows are enticed into the revolution by promises that their milk will not be stolen , but can be used to raise their own calves . Their milk is then stolen by the pigs , who learn to milk them . The milk is stirred into the pigs ' mash every day , while the other animals are denied such luxuries . The cat -- Never seen to carry out any work , the cat is absent for long periods and is forgiven ; because her excuses are so convincing and she `` purred so affectionately that it was impossible not to believe in her good intentions . '' She has no interest in the politics of the farm , and the only time she is recorded as having participated in an election , she is found to have actually `` voted on both sides . '' Composition and publication Origin George Orwell wrote the manuscript in 1943 and 1944 subsequent to his experiences during the Spanish Civil War , which he described in Homage to Catalonia ( 1938 ) . In the preface of a 1947 Ukrainian edition of Animal Farm , he explained how escaping the communist purges in Spain taught him `` how easily totalitarian propaganda can control the opinion of enlightened people in democratic countries '' . This motivated Orwell to expose and strongly condemn what he saw as the Stalinist corruption of the original socialist ideals . Immediately prior to writing the book , Orwell had quit the BBC . He was also upset about a booklet for propagandists the Ministry of Information had put out . The booklet included instructions on how to quell ideological fears of the Soviet Union , such as directions to claim that the Red Terror was a figment of Nazi imagination . In the preface , Orwell also described the source of the idea of setting the book on a farm : ... I saw a little boy , perhaps ten years old , driving a huge carthorse along a narrow path , whipping it whenever it tried to turn . It struck me that if only such animals became aware of their strength we should have no power over them , and that men exploit animals in much the same way as the rich exploit the proletariat . Efforts to find a publisher Orwell initially encountered difficulty getting the manuscript published , largely due to fears that the book might upset the alliance between Britain , the United States , and the Soviet Union . Four publishers refused ; one had initially accepted the work but declined it after consulting the Ministry of Information . Eventually , Secker and Warburg published the first edition in 1945 . During the Second World War , it became clear to Orwell that anti-Soviet literature was not something which most major publishing houses would touch -- including his regular publisher Gollancz . He also submitted the manuscript to Faber and Faber , where the poet T.S. Eliot ( who was a director of the firm ) rejected it ; Eliot wrote back to Orwell praising the book 's `` good writing '' and `` fundamental integrity '' , but declared that they would only accept it for publication if they had some sympathy for the viewpoint `` which I take to be generally Trotskyite '' . Eliot said he found the view `` not convincing '' , and contended that the pigs were made out to be the best to run the farm ; he posited that someone might argue `` what was needed ... was not more communism but more public - spirited pigs '' . Orwell let André Deutsch , who was working for Nicholson & Watson in 1944 , read the typescript , and Deutsch was convinced that Nicholson & Watson would want to publish it ; however , they did not , and `` lectured Orwell on what they perceived to be errors in Animal Farm . '' In his London Letter on 17 April 1944 for Partisan Review , Orwell wrote that it was `` now next door to impossible to get anything overtly anti-Russian printed . Anti-Russian books do appear , but mostly from Catholic publishing firms and always from a religious or frankly reactionary angle . '' The publisher Jonathan Cape , who had initially accepted Animal Farm , subsequently rejected the book after an official at the British Ministry of Information warned him off -- although the civil servant who it is assumed gave the order was later found to be a Soviet spy . Writing to Leonard Moore , a partner in the literary agency of Christy & Moore , publisher Jonathan Cape explained that the decision had been taken on the advice of a senior official in the Ministry of Information . Such flagrant anti-Soviet bias was unacceptable , and the choice of pigs as the dominant class was thought to be especially offensive . It may reasonably be assumed that the ' important official ' was a man named Peter Smollett , who was later unmasked as a Soviet agent . Orwell was suspicious of Smollett / Smolka , and he would be one of the names Orwell included in his list of Crypto - Communists and Fellow - Travellers sent to the Information Research Department in 1949 . Born Hans Peter Smolka in Vienna in 1912 , he came to Britain in 1933 as an NKVD agent with the codename ' Abo ' , became a naturalised British subject in 1938 , changed his name , and after the outbreak of World War II joined the Ministry of Information where he organised pro-Soviet propaganda , working with Kim Philby in 1943 -- 45 . Smollett 's family have rejected the accusation that he was a spy . The publisher wrote to Orwell , saying : If the fable were addressed generally to dictators and dictatorships at large then publication would be all right , but the fable does follow , as I see now , so completely the progress of the Russian Soviets and their two dictators ( Lenin and Stalin ) , that it can apply only to Russia , to the exclusion of the other dictatorships . Another thing : it would be less offensive if the predominant caste in the fable were not pigs . I think the choice of pigs as the ruling caste will no doubt give offence to many people , and particularly to anyone who is a bit touchy , as undoubtedly the Russians are . Frederic Warburg also faced pressures against publication , even from people in his own office and from his wife Pamela , who felt that it was not the moment for ingratitude towards Stalin and the heroic Red Army , which had played a major part in defeating Hitler . A Russian translation was printed in the paper Posev , and in giving permission for a Russian translation of Animal Farm , Orwell refused in advance all royalties . A translation in Ukrainian , which was produced in Germany , was confiscated in large part by the American wartime authorities and handed over to the Soviet repatriation commission . In October 1945 , Orwell wrote to Frederic Warburg expressing interest in pursuing the possibility that the political cartoonist David Low might illustrate Animal Farm . Low had written a letter saying that he had had `` a good time with ANIMAL FARM -- an excellent bit of satire -- it would illustrate perfectly . '' Nothing came of this , and a trial issue produced by Secker & Warburg in 1956 illustrated by John Driver was abandoned , but the Folio Society published an edition in 1984 illustrated by Quentin Blake and an edition illustrated by the cartoonist Ralph Steadman was published by Secker & Warburg in 1995 to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the first edition of Animal Farm . Preface Orwell originally wrote a preface complaining about British self - censorship and how the British people were suppressing criticism of the USSR , their World War II ally : The sinister fact about literary censorship in England is that it is largely voluntary ... Things are kept right out of the British press , not because the Government intervenes but because of a general tacit agreement that ' it would n't do ' to mention that particular fact . Although the first edition allowed space for the preface , it was not included , and as of June 2009 most editions of the book have not included it . Secker and Warburg published the first edition of Animal Farm in 1945 without an introduction . However , the publisher had provided space for a preface in the author 's proof composited from the manuscript . For reasons unknown , no preface was supplied , and the page numbers had to be renumbered at the last minute . In 1972 , Ian Angus found the original typescript titled `` The Freedom of the Press '' , and Bernard Crick published it , together with his own introduction , in The Times Literary Supplement on 15 September 1972 as `` How the essay came to be written '' . Orwell 's essay criticised British self - censorship by the press , specifically the suppression of unflattering descriptions of Stalin and the Soviet government . The same essay also appeared in the Italian 1976 edition of Animal Farm with another introduction by Crick , claiming to be the first edition with the preface . Other publishers were still declining to publish it . Critical response Contemporary reviews of the work were not universally positive . Writing in the American New Republic magazine , George Soule expressed his disappointment in the book , writing that it `` puzzled and saddened me . It seemed on the whole dull . The allegory turned out to be a creaking machine for saying in a clumsy way things that have been said better directly . '' Soule believed that the animals were not consistent enough with their real world inspirations , and said , `` It seems to me that the failure of this book ( commercially it is already assured of tremendous success ) arises from the fact that the satire deals not with something the author has experienced , but rather with stereotyped ideas about a country which he probably does not know very well '' . The Guardian on 24 August 1945 called Animal Farm `` a delightfully humorous and caustic satire on the rule of the many by the few '' . Tosco Fyvel , writing in Tribune on the same day , called the book `` a gentle satire on a certain State and on the illusions of an age which may already be behind us . '' Julian Symons responded , on 7 September , `` Should we not expect , in Tribune at least , acknowledgement of the fact that it is a satire not at all gentle upon a particular State -- Soviet Russia ? It seems to me that a reviewer should have the courage to identify Napoleon with Stalin , and Snowball with Trotsky , and express an opinion favourable or unfavourable to the author , upon a political ground . In a hundred years time perhaps , Animal Farm may be simply a fairy story , today it is a political satire with a good deal of point . '' Animal Farm has been subject to much comment in the decades since these early remarks . Analysis Animalism `` Seven Commandments '' redirects here . For the Noahide code , see Seven Laws of Noah . The pigs Snowball , Napoleon , and Squealer adapt Old Major 's ideas into `` a complete system of thought '' , which they formally name Animalism , an allegoric reference to Communism . Soon after , Napoleon and Squealer partake in activities associated with the humans ( drinking alcohol , sleeping in beds , trading ) , which were explicitly prohibited by the Seven Commandments . Squealer is employed to alter the Seven Commandments to account for this humanisation , an allusion to the Soviet government 's revising of history in order to exercise control of the people 's beliefs about themselves and their society . Squealer sprawls at the foot of the end wall of the big barn where the Seven Commandments were written ( ch . viii ) -- preliminary artwork for a 1950 strip cartoon by Norman Pett and Donald Freeman The original commandments are : Whatever goes upon two legs is an enemy . Whatever goes upon four legs , or has wings , is a friend . No animal shall wear clothes . No animal shall sleep in a bed . No animal shall drink alcohol . No animal shall kill any other animal . All animals are equal . These commandments are also distilled into the maxim `` Four legs good , two legs bad ! '' which is primarily used by the sheep on the farm , often to disrupt discussions and disagreements between animals on the nature of Animalism . Later , Napoleon and his pigs secretly revise some commandments to clear themselves of accusations of law - breaking . The changed commandments are as follows , with the changes bolded : No animal shall sleep in a bed with sheets . No animal shall drink alcohol to excess . No animal shall kill any other animal without cause . Eventually , these are replaced with the maxims , `` All animals are equal but some animals are more equal than others '' , and `` Four legs good , two legs better ! '' as the pigs become more human . This is an ironic twist to the original purpose of the Seven Commandments , which were supposed to keep order within Animal Farm by uniting the animals together against the humans and preventing animals from following the humans ' evil habits . Through the revision of the commandments , Orwell demonstrates how simply political dogma can be turned into malleable propaganda . Significance and allegory The Horn and Hoof Flag described in the book appears to be based on the hammer and sickle , the Communist symbol . In the Eastern Bloc , both Animal Farm and later Nineteen Eighty - Four were on the list of forbidden books until the end of communist rule in 1989 , and were only available via clandestine Samizdat networks . Orwell biographer Jeffrey Meyers has written , `` virtually every detail has political significance in this allegory . '' Orwell himself wrote in 1946 , `` Of course I intended it primarily as a satire on the Russian revolution ... ( and ) that kind of revolution ( violent conspiratorial revolution , led by unconsciously power hungry people ) can only lead to a change of masters ( - ) revolutions only effect a radical improvement when the masses are alert . '' In a preface for a 1947 Ukrainian edition , he stated , `` ... for the past ten years I have been convinced that the destruction of the Soviet myth was essential if we wanted a revival of the socialist movement . On my return from Spain ( in 1937 ) I thought of exposing the Soviet myth in a story that could be easily understood by almost anyone and which could be easily translated into other languages . '' The revolt of the animals against Farmer Jones is Orwell 's analogy with the October 1917 Bolshevik Revolution . The Battle of the Cowshed has been said to represent the allied invasion of Soviet Russia in 1918 , and the defeat of the White Russians in the Russian Civil War . The pigs ' rise to pre-eminence mirrors the rise of a Stalinist bureaucracy in the USSR , just as Napoleon 's emergence as the farm 's sole leader reflects Stalin 's emergence . The pigs ' appropriation of milk and apples for their own use , `` the turning point of the story '' as Orwell termed it in a letter to Dwight Macdonald , stands as an analogy for the crushing of the left - wing 1921 Kronstadt revolt against the Bolsheviks , and the difficult efforts of the animals to build the windmill suggest the various Five Year Plans . The puppies controlled by Napoleon parallel the nurture of the secret police in the Stalinist structure , and the pigs ' treatment of the other animals on the farm recalls the internal terror faced by the populace in the 1930s . In chapter seven , when the animals confess their nonexistent crimes and are killed , Orwell directly alludes to the purges , confessions and show trials of the late 1930s . These contributed to Orwell 's conviction that the Bolshevik revolution had been corrupted and the Soviet system become rotten . Peter Edgerly Firchow and Peter Davison consider that the Battle of the Windmill represents the Great Patriotic War ( World War II ) , especially the Battle of Stalingrad and the Battle of Moscow . During the battle , Orwell first wrote , `` All the animals , including Napoleon '' took cover . Orwell had the publisher alter this to `` All the animals except Napoleon '' in recognition of Stalin 's decision to remain in Moscow during the German advance . Orwell requested the change after he met Joseph Czapski in Paris in March 1945 . Czapski , a survivor of the Katyn Massacre and an opponent of the Soviet regime , told Orwell , as Orwell wrote to Arthur Koestler , that it had been `` the character ( and ) greatness of Stalin '' that saved Russia from the German invasion . Front row ( left to right ) : Rykov , Skrypnyk , and Stalin -- ' When Snowball comes to the crucial points in his speeches he is drowned out by the sheep ( Ch . V ) , just as in the party Congress in 1927 ( above ) , at Stalin 's instigation ' pleas for the opposition were drowned in the continual , hysterically intolerant uproar from the floor ' . Other connections that writers have suggested illustrate Orwell 's telescoping of Russian history from 1917 to 1943 include the wave of rebelliousness that ran through the countryside after the Rebellion , which stands for the abortive revolutions in Hungary and in Germany ( Ch IV ) ; the conflict between Napoleon and Snowball ( Ch V ) , paralleling `` the two rival and quasi-Messianic beliefs that seemed pitted against one another : Trotskyism , with its faith in the revolutionary vocation of the proletariat of the West ; and Stalinism with its glorification of Russia 's socialist destiny '' ; Napoleon 's dealings with Whymper and the Willingdon markets ( Ch VI ) , paralleling the Treaty of Rapallo ; and Frederick 's forged bank notes , paralleling the Hitler - Stalin non-aggression pact of August 1939 , after which Frederick attacks Animal Farm without warning and destroys the windmill . The book 's close , with the pigs and men in a kind of rapprochement , reflected Orwell 's view of the 1943 Teheran Conference that seemed to display the establishment of `` the best possible relations between the USSR and the West '' -- but in reality were destined , as Orwell presciently predicted , to continue to unravel . The disagreement between the allies and the start of the Cold War is suggested when Napoleon and Pilkington , both suspicious , `` played an ace of spades simultaneously '' . Similarly , the music in the novel , starting with Beasts of England and the later anthems , parallels The Internationale and its adoption and repudiation by the Soviet authorities as the Anthem of the USSR in the 1920s and 1930s . Adaptations Films Animal Farm has been adapted to film twice . Both differ from the novel and have been accused of taking significant liberties , including sanitising some aspects . Animal Farm ( 1954 ) is an animated feature in which Napoleon is apparently overthrown in a second revolution . In 1974 , E. Howard Hunt revealed that he had been sent by the CIA 's Psychological Warfare department to obtain the film rights from Orwell 's widow , and the resulting 1954 animation was funded by the agency . Animal Farm ( 1999 ) is a TV live action version that shows Napoleon 's regime collapsing in on itself , with the farm having new human owners , reflecting the collapse of Soviet communism . In 2012 , a HFR - 3D version of Animal Farm , potentially directed by Andy Serkis was announced . Radio dramatizations A BBC radio version , produced by Rayner Heppenstall , was broadcast in January 1947 . Orwell listened to the production at his home in Canonbury Square , London , with Hugh Gordon Porteous , amongst others . Orwell later wrote to Heppenstall that Porteous , `` who had not read the book , grasped what was happening after a few minutes . '' A further radio production , again using Orwell 's own dramatisation of the book , was broadcast in January 2013 on BBC Radio 4 . Tamsin Greig narrated , and the cast included Nicky Henson as Napoleon , Toby Jones as the propagandist Squealer , and Ralph Ineson as Boxer . Stage productions A theatrical version , with music by Richard Peaslee and lyrics by Adrian Mitchell , was staged at the National Theatre London on 25 April 1984 , directed by Peter Hall . It toured nine cities in 1985 . A solo version , adapted and performed by Guy Masterson , premièred at the Traverse Theatre Edinburgh in January 1995 and has toured worldwide since . Popular culture Music ( Alphabetical by artist ) The Boston Crusaders Drum and Bugle Corps ' 2014 show was titled Animal Farm , based on the novel . Canadian - based band Boxer the Horse takes its name from a character in the novel . Dead prez based a song on their album Let 's Get Free ( 2000 ) , called `` Animal in Man '' , on the novella , putting emphasis on how the other animals should not trust the pigs during a revolution . The lyrics of the song '' Arthur 's Farm '' from the Half Man Half Biscuit album Back Again in the DHSS ( 1987 ) tell the story of Douglas Bader and Arthur Askey visiting Animal Farm . The song features the line `` Four legs good , but no legs best '' in apparent tribute to the two famous amputees . The song , `` The Nature of the Beast '' , by the American metalcore band , Ice Nine Kills , was inspired by Animal Farm . Pink Floyd 's album Animals ( 1977 ) was partially inspired by Animal Farm . It categorises people as pigs , dogs , or sheep . R.E.M. 's song `` Disturbance at the Heron House '' is based on Animal Farm .

Lipton wrote a poem in 1959 ; Yarrow found it and wrote the lyrics based on the poem . After the song was released , Yarrow searched for Lipton and gave him half credit for the song . Contents ( hide ) 1 Lyrics 2 Speculation about drug references 3 Notable recordings 4 Adaptations 5 Parodies 6 Vietnam War - era gunship 7 Cultural references 8 International versions 9 See also 10 References 11 External links Lyrics ( edit ) The lyrics for `` Puff , the Magic Dragon '' are based on a 1959 poem by Leonard Lipton , then a 19 - year - old Cornell University student . Lipton was inspired by an Ogden Nash poem titled `` Custard the Dragon '' , about a `` realio , trulio little pet dragon '' . The lyrics tell a story of the ageless dragon Puff and his playmate , Jackie Paper , a little boy who grows up and loses interest in the imaginary adventures of childhood and leaves Puff to be with himself . ( The line `` A dragon lives forever , but not so little boys '' is generally thought to imply only that `` little Jackie Paper '' grew up . ) The story of the song takes place `` by the sea '' in the fictional land of `` Honalee '' . Lipton was friends with Peter Yarrow 's housemate when they were all students at Cornell . He used Yarrow 's typewriter to get the poem out of his head . He then forgot about it until years later , when a friend called and told him Yarrow was looking for him , to give him credit for the lyrics . On making contact Yarrow gave Lipton half the songwriting credit , and he still gets royalties from the song . In an effort to be gender - neutral , Yarrow now sings the line `` A dragon lives forever , but not so little boys '' as `` A dragon lives forever , but not so girls and boys . '' The original poem also had a verse that did not make it into the song . In it , Puff found another child and played with him after returning . Neither Yarrow nor Lipton remembers the verse in any detail , and the paper that was left in Yarrow 's typewriter in 1958 has since been lost . In 1961 , Peter Yarrow joined Paul Stookey and Mary Travers to form Peter , Paul and Mary . The group incorporated the song into their live performances before recording it in 1962 ; their 1962 recording of `` Puff the Magic Dragon '' reached number two on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and spent two weeks atop the Billboard easy listening chart in early 1963 . It also reached number ten on Billboard 's R&B chart . Speculation about drug references ( edit ) After the song 's initial success , speculation arose -- as early as a 1964 article in Newsweek -- that the song contained veiled references to smoking marijuana . The word `` paper '' in the name of Puff 's human friend ( Jackie Paper ) was said to be a reference to rolling papers , and the word `` dragon '' was interpreted as `` draggin ' , '' i.e. inhaling smoke ; similarly , the name `` Puff '' was alleged to be a reference to taking a `` puff '' on a joint . The supposition was claimed to be common knowledge in a letter by a member of the public to The New York Times in 1984 . The authors of the song have repeatedly rejected this interpretation and have strongly and consistently denied that they intended any references to drug use . Leonard Lipton has stated `` Puff the Magic Dragon is not about drugs . '' Peter Yarrow has frequently explained that the song is about the hardships of growing older and has no relationship to drug - taking . He has also said of the song that it `` never had any meaning other than the obvious one '' and is about the `` loss of innocence in children '' , and dismissed the suggestion of association with drugs as `` sloppy research '' . In 1973 , Yarrow 's bandmate Paul Stookey of Peter , Paul and Mary also upheld the song 's innocence . He recorded a version of the song at the Sydney Opera House in March 1973 , , in which he set up a fictitious trial scene . The Prosecutor accused the song of being about marijuana , but Puff and Jackie protested . The judge finally left the case to the jury ( the Opera House audience ) and said if they will sing along with the song , it would be acquitted . The audience joined in with Stookey , and at the end of their sing - along , the judge declared : `` case dismissed . '' Notable recordings ( edit ) Peter , Paul and Mary ( 1963 ) - Entered the top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100 charts on March 30 , 1963 and peaked at No. 2 . Topped Billboard 's Adult Contemporary charts . Nina & Frederik ( 1963 ) Glen Campbell - instrumental version for his album The Astounding 12 - String Guitar of Glen Campbell ( 1964 ) Trini Lopez - recorded for The Folk Album ( 1965 ) Connie Francis - included in her album Connie Francis and The Kids Next Door ( 1966 ) Bing Crosby - included in his album Thoroughly Modern Bing ( 1968 ) The Mike Sammes Singers ( 1970 ) Slim Whitman - recorded for his album Ghost Riders in the Sky ( 1978 ) Genevieve Jereb - recorded for her album Cool Bananas ( 2004 ) Adaptations ( edit ) A 1978 animated television special , Puff the Magic Dragon , adapted the song . It was followed by two sequels , Puff the Magic Dragon in the Land of the Living Lies and Puff and the Incredible Mr. Nobody . In all three films Burgess Meredith voiced Puff . In December 2016 , it was announced that Fox Animation will produce a live - action / animation film based on the song with Mike Mitchell as director . The song was adapted for a children 's pantomime , which played at Sydney 's Seymour Centre in 1983 . A 2007 book adaptation of the song 's lyrics by Yarrow , Lipton , and illustrator Eric Puybaret gives the story a happier ending with a young girl ( presumed by reviewers to be Jackie Paper 's daughter ) seeking out Puff to become her new companion . The lyrics remain unchanged from the Peter Paul and Mary version ; the young girl is only seen in the pictures by illustrator Puybaret . On the last page of the book , she is introduced to Puff by an older Jackie Paper . The tune was used in the promotional LP Push the Magic Button for the track with the same name by Versatec , a computer printer company Parodies ( edit ) In the mid 1970s an American Jewish band named Ruach created a parody version of the song entitled `` Puff the Kosher Dragon '' . In the course of the song , Kosher Puff eats kosher food , has a Bar Mitzvah , fights anti-semites and finally marries and brings up his children as loyal members of the faith . The Ruach song has been noted as one of the first examples of a modern Jewish band using a popular secular tune . Both tune and elements of the lyrics were adapted in the controversial parody `` Barack the Magic Negro '' , written and recorded by Paul Shanklin for Rush Limbaugh 's radio program , after the term was first applied to then presidential candidate Obama by movie and culture critic , David Ehrenstein , in a Los Angeles Times op ed column of March 19 , 2007 . Yarrow condemned the act as `` shocking and saddening in the extreme , '' stating that `` taking a children 's song and twisting it in such vulgar , mean - spirited way , is a slur to our entire country and our common agreement to move beyond racism ... Puff , himself , if asked , would certainly agree . '' Vietnam War - era gunship ( edit ) During the Vietnam War the AC - 47 Spooky gunship was nicknamed the `` Dragon '' or `` Dragon ship '' by the Americans because of its armament and firepower -- the nickname soon caught on , and one website without primary citations indicates that the American troops began to call the AC - 47 `` Puff the Magic Dragon '' . Robert Mason 's Chickenhawk states , in reference to the Peter , Paul and Mary song playing on a turntable : `` Puff the Magic Dragon '' was making me uncomfortable . It was the saccharine song that had inspired the naming of the murderous Gatling - gun - armed C - 47s . I could n't listen . Cultural references ( edit ) Elon Musk , founder of SpaceX , said his Dragon spacecraft was named after `` Puff the Magic Dragon '' . Part of the song was used in a scene from Meet the Parents where Greg Focker is uncomfortably trying to explain to Jack Byrnes how the song is supposedly about smoking marijuana . In Japan , part of this song was used for ending theme of Jijihoudan , a political talk show which broadcast on TBS and BS - TBS . In an episode of King of the Hill titled `` The Bluegrass is Always Greener '' , Hank scolds Bill for being a fan of the song ; as a bait - and - switch joke , the conservative and uptight Hank is n't aware of the alleged drug references , instead chiding Bill that grown men ought to appreciate other kinds of music . The Orlando Magic mascot is named `` Stuff the Magic Dragon '' . In Marvel Studios ' Iron Man 2 , the character Justin Hammer , who owns Hammer Industries , introduces a machine gun nicknamed Puff the Magic Dragon to the U.S. military , thereby combining allusions to both PP&M 's `` If I Had a Hammer '' and `` Puff '' . In the 1999 film Meet The Parents Robert De Niro 's character , Jack Byrnes plays the song in the car when driving with his daughter 's boyfriend . In an attempt to make humorous chat Greg Focker ( Ben Stiller ) makes the point that this song is clearly about smoking pot . Jack feigns ignorance and uses this to later on implicate Greg as a dope fiend , in an attempt to get his daughter to break up with Greg . In a post credit sting , we later see Greg Focker referring to this conversation and calling doubt on Jack 's ignorance of the inferred drug reference . In the movie While You Were Sleeping , Jack , brother of Peter ( then in a coma ) , tries to prove - by a series of personal questions about his brother - that Lucy ( who has been accidentally identified as Peter 's fiancee ) does not really even know Peter . During the interrogation it is revealed that Peter 's favorite song is `` Puff , the Magic Dragon . '' There is a comedic magician who calls himself Piff the Magic Dragon . He always opens his show with , `` You might know my brother ... Steve . '' International versions ( edit ) A German version ( `` Paff , der Zauberdrachen '' ) was recorded by Marlene Dietrich in 1963 . A Catalan translation ( `` Paf , el drac màgic '' ) was popularized by the Grup de Folk supergroup on the 1967 EP `` Escolta - ho en el Vent '' , becoming from then onwards one of the most popular children 's songs in Catalan . It has also been played by , among many others , Joan Manuel Serrat . A Hungarian version ( `` Paff , a bűvös sárkány '' ) was performed by 100 Folk Celsius band in 1984 . A Korean version ( Puff ( 펍 ) ) was recorded by Yang Hee - eun in 1971 .

( June 2013 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) This is a list of characters that appear in The Magic School Bus television series and The Magic School Bus Rides Again . Contents 1 Main characters 1.1 Miss Frizzle 1.1. 1 Valerie Felicity Frizzle 1.1. 2 Fiona Felicity Frizzle 1.2 Liz 1.3 Arnold Perlstein 1.4 Carlos Ramon 1.5 Dorothy Ann Rourke 1.6 Jyoti Kaur 1.7 Keesha Franklin 1.8 Phoebe Terese 1.9 Ralphie Tennelli 1.10 Timothy `` Tim '' 1.11 Wanda Li 1.12 The Bus 2 Relatives 2.1 Frizzle family 2.2 Janet Perlstein 2.3 Dorothy Ann 's family 2.4 The Li family 2.5 The Ramon family 2.6 The Franklins , Tennellis , Tereses , Perlsteins , and Kaurs 2.7 Tim 's family 3 Others 4 References Main characters ( edit ) The school is known as Walkerville Elementary , named for the fictional town of Walkerville , where it is located . The original book series had a larger number of students in Ms. Frizzle 's class ( 19 instead of 8 ) ; 11 characters were omitted in the TV series , the TV tie - in books ( based with the TV series ) , and the video game series . Miss Frizzle ( edit ) Valerie Felicity Frizzle ( edit ) Voiced by Lily Tomlin in the TV series and Tina Marie Goff in the games Valerie Felicity Frizzle is a third grade teacher at Walkerville Elementary . In the first series she is normally referred to as Miss Frizzle or Ms. Frizzle , but her students often call her `` The Friz '' . While she is eccentric and somewhat strange , The Friz is intelligent , kind , resourceful , happy , funny , supportive , loving and somewhat motherly . She loves making jokes revolving around the lesson she teaches , even if she is the only one laughing . She makes flamboyant entrances to start the class , causing some to remark `` How does she do that ? '' A redhead , she wears wacky dresses that reflects the subject of each adventure and earrings that glow before a field trip begins . She usually winks before the earrings glow ( in the original books , her dress on the last page usually hinted at the plot of the next book ; the very last book sees it covered with question marks . ) She enjoys singing , seems unafraid of danger , and often refers to her relatives or ancestors during trips . She can make a lot of jokes like Carlos , and she also admires Carlos ' jokes . She appears to be very attached to the bus , almost as if having a nostalgic connection to it . She also loves to surprise the students and although she denies that she knows everything , she seems to never be in the dark about her students ' activities . To Arnold , she is strange , but he and his friends still love and respect her . Some of Ms. Frizzle 's ongoing catchphrases are , `` Bus , do your stuff ! '' , `` Take chances , make mistakes , get messy ! '' , `` Hit it Liz ! '' and most notably , `` WAHOOOOO ! '' Mrs Frizzle is also notably suffering from some form of hyper - activity , which leads to some very interesting and exciting episodes . She appears in The Magic School Bus Rides Again as Professor Valerie Felicity Frizzle , Ph. D , with Tomlin once again providing her voice . In this series , she answers phone calls in the fictional call - in segments ( replacing the producers seen in the original series ) , along with her pet monkey named Goldie , and usually gives some clue as to the topic of the next episode . Mostly , in the new series , she sometimes but not always shows up , and is always known for being shown at the ending . Fiona Felicity Frizzle ( edit ) Voiced by Kate McKinnon Fiona Felicity Frizzle is Valerie Frizzle 's younger sister and the class ' new teacher . She borrows a lot of her big sister 's catchphrases , including `` Bus , do your stuff ! '' , among many others . Similar to her sister , her skirt and necklace often change each episode based on the topic . As a parallel to her sister 's `` as I always say '' catchphrase , she often quotes random relatives and friends of hers . Liz ( edit ) Voiced by Catherine Thompson in the games Liz is the class pet Jackson 's chameleon who goes on most of the field trips with Ms. Frizzle and the students , often getting herself into dangerous comedic situations . She appears to get jealous when the bus receives more attention than she does . In the episode `` Gets Ants In Its Pants '' , she is visibly annoyed and disappointed when she does not get the recognition she deserves . Liz is mute , but often does things that one would not expect from a chameleon in real life , such as driving the bus . When she goes to Herp Haven for a brief period her packing list includes claw polish , scale moisturizer and fang - paste . If Ms. Frizzle has to leave the students for a brief period for any reason , or if the class must split up , she leaves Liz in charge , acting as a sort of substitute teacher . In `` In a Pickle '' , she is the supposed `` Judge '' in Ms. Frizzle 's trial for stealing Keesha 's 1st prize cucumber / turning it into a pickle ( she wears the wig , and the outfit , and carries the gavel ) . While Liz is mute on the show , she speaks in the CD - ROMs ( although it appears that only the player can hear her ) . She is also seen at the end of most episodes with the producers of The Magic School Bus . Arnold Perlstein ( edit ) Voiced by Amos Crawley ( season 1 ) and Danny Tamberelli ( seasons 2 -- 4 ) ; Miles Koseleci - Vieira ( Rides Again ) Arnold Perlstein is a bespectacled Jewish American boy . He is often seen as somewhat of a coward but is actually braver than he 's given credit for ( in `` The Busasaurus , '' he scares off a T. Rex to save the class ) . Arnold also inspires the class with ideas and they call him a genius . In the episode `` Shows and Tells , '' he mentions that his great - aunt is the famous archaeologist Arizona Joan , a parody of Indiana Jones . In spite of his dislike of Ms. Frizzle 's wacky field trips , he is on several occasions fiercely loyal to the teacher herself , as in `` Lost in Space '' where he defends her against his cousin Janet . Another example of this is in `` In a Pickle '' where he acts as a lawyer for Ms. Frizzle , taking his job almost too seriously . He has an intense interest in and knowledge of rocks and minerals and an extensive rock collection . Because of this , he becomes the only child to be a member of GRANITE , the Great Rock Admirers ' National Institute of Tectonics Experts ( `` Goes Cellular '' ) . In `` Cracks a Yolk , '' he and Dorothy Ann share the only kiss on the series when she kisses him on the cheek . It is implied in the episodes `` For Lunch '' and `` Holiday Special '' that he has a crush on Wanda and vice versa , but in `` Wet All Over , '' he has a crush on a girl in another class named Tiffany . It 's also hinted in `` The Busasaurus '' that Phoebe has a crush on him as well . In `` Goes to Seed '' he mentions he 's allergic to pepper and pollen . In some of the books and on the TV series , Arnold has orange hair , but he has blond hair in the computer games and other books . His middle name is mentioned in Ms. Frizzle 's Adventures : Medieval Castle . In most episodes , he usually says `` I knew I should have stayed home today '' , or a variant of it . He has a bossy , rude , and know - it - all cousin named Janet . Also , in `` Gets Lost In Space '' Arnold nearly dies in space because Janet is trying to fit stuff she collected into the bus that ca n't fit and Arnold removes his helmet to show her what happens to her if she stays on Pluto with her possessions . Finally , that forces Janet to leave Pluto right away . Then Janet becomes shocked and she and the class immediately carry him into the bus . But due to this being a kids show , the producers instead had him catch a cold . Carlos Ramon ( edit ) Voiced by Daniel DeSanto ( original series ) , Leke Maceda - Rustecki ( Rides Again ) . Carlos Ramon is the Mexican American class joker , always making a pun or joke about whatever situation the class is in . He is a hands - on learner , preferring to invent unique devices , such as an instrument or rain catcher , rather than learn from a book like Dorothy Ann . Carlos tries to be funny by telling several jokes , but they often backfire and cause the kids to groan `` Carlos ! '' in an aggravated manner . By contrast , Ms. Frizzle seems to enjoy his jokes , sometimes even complimenting him on being observant in the process of making them up . He is kind and outgoing , but he can have a bossy side as well . Despite this , Carlos is good - hearted and has a brotherly instinct about him . In `` The Magic School Bus Going Batty '' , his father also makes puns , to which the other kids ' parents would respond , `` Mr. Ramon ! '' also in unison . In the episode called `` Get Ready , Set , Dough , '' Carlos has the responsibility of making chocolate cake for Ms. Frizzle 's birthday . In `` Getting Energized '' he entertains a crowd and can even do impressions of Arnold Schwarzenegger . In one of the producer segments , one of the kids points out that Carlos 's bad puns must come from the producers as heard in one of the phone calls . Dorothy Ann Rourke ( edit ) Voiced by Tara Meyer ( original series ) , Gabby Clarke ( Rides Again ) . Dorothy Ann Rourke is the class reader of Australian - American with German descent , always looking for a fact in one of her many books and is the brain of the class . She is usually called `` D.A. '' by the others . She always carries her pink satchel , which holds her books . In the episode `` Blows its Top , '' Dorothy Ann loses her books , but realizes she does not need them to learn about things . She appears to love astronomy , especially in `` Out of This World '' and `` Sees Stars '' , where she is shown to have a telescope . In `` Sees Stars '' , D.A. is celebrating her birthday , but she is sick and stays home that day , making her the second and last student after Ralphie to be sick in an episode . She appears to enjoy physics too , as she is seen with a physics book in `` Plays Ball . '' She usually wears her blonde hair in pigtails tied in red hairbands , and in the episode `` Goes On Air , '' she takes off her hair ties , her pigtails staying in place ( as pointed out by Arnold ) . In the beginning of `` Out of This World , '' she has a nightmare about an asteroid crashing into her school and in the climax , she is the captain of the ship and she has her own ideas to save our planet . Dorothy Ann 's last name has never been mentioned in canon , the books or the TV show . It 's also revealed that she has a little sister named Evan . She is one of three kids known to have siblings , the other two being Carlos and Wanda . When reading about different facts , D.A. usually begins by saying , `` According to my research the ... '' In the original series , she pronounced `` research '' with the accent on the second syllable . In The Magic School Bus Rides Again , she pronounces it with the accent on the first syllable , as it is usually pronounced in the United States . In The Magic School Bus Rides Again , her book satchel is replaced by a purple tablet computer . Jyoti Kaur ( edit ) Voiced by Birva Pandya Jyoti Kaur is an Indian - American girl who replaced Phoebe in The Magic School Bus Rides Again . She 's an expert on computers and robotics .

Keesha Franklin ( edit ) Voiced by Erica Luttrell ( original series ) , Mikaela Blake ( Rides Again ) . Keesha Franklin is an African American girl who is considered to be the most level - headed and realistic student in the class . She is usually the most sarcastic one as well . Because of her skepticism , she often argues with Ralphie , who tends to live in his imagination more than in real life . She is the only person to participate in every single field trip . When a situation went poorly , Keesha would often say , `` Oh bad . Oh bad . Oh bad , bad , bad ! '' Her other catchphrase is , `` Let 's get the facts ! '' Keesha takes dance lessons . Phoebe Terese ( edit ) Voiced by Maia Filar Phoebe Terese is the Irish - American new student in Ms. Frizzle 's class who often refers to how things were at her old school ( which is actually called `` Phoebe 's Old School , '' as seen in `` Goes to Seed '' ) . The caring soul of the class , Phoebe is sweet , gentle , kind , and a little bit shy as her biggest fear is stage fright , shown in the episode `` Gets Planted . '' Phoebe is an animal activist , as seen in `` All Dried Up , '' `` Cold Feet , '' `` Spins a Web , '' `` Goes Upstream , '' `` Ups and Downs , '' and `` Getting Energized . '' Her love of animals also includes bugs ( `` Butterfly and Bog Beast , '' `` Spins a Web '' ) . She has shown a poor ability in growing plants ( not growing one herself in `` Goes to Seed '' and growing a pitiful bean plant in `` Gets Planted '' ) . Her father is blind as seen in `` Going Batty , '' and like her , he makes references to her old school . Phoebe 's mother is never seen or mentioned in the show . In the episode `` The Busasaurus '' , it is hinted she has a crush on Arnold by quoting `` Gee , what a guy ! '' when he tries to save Dr. Skeledon 's dinosaur egg from an Ornithomimus . Phoebe is usually paired up with Arnold the most out of all the other classmates in various situations . In the original books , her parents are never mentioned or seen , and it 's implied she 's being raised by her grandparents ( The Magic School Bus In the Time of the Dinosaurs and The Magic School Bus and the Electric Field Trip ) . It is revealed in The Magic School Bus Rides Again that she transferred back to her old school . Ralphie Tennelli ( edit ) Voiced by Stuart Stone ( original series ) , Matthew Mintz ( Rides Again ) . Ralphie Tennelli is the Italian American class athlete . While in class , he likes to daydream . He is the only field trip student to wear a hat , backwards baseball cap . He also wears a light green T - shirt with a red R on the front and dark green pants in the original series and a blue and white T - Shirt in the series revilied . He plays a lot of sports , including soccer , basketball , hockey , and baseball . He has a distaste for anchovies , which , as he tells the class in `` Gets Eaten , '' his dad puts on pizza to keep him from eating it . Ralphie likes to serve as the leader of the students , despite having tendencies to jump to conclusions ( as seen in `` Goes Batty '' ) and ignore better judgment ( as seen in `` In the City '' ) . He also occasionally rivals Carlos when it comes to jokes . His catchphrases are `` Is it just me , or ... '' and `` I think I 'm gon na be sick '' . Timothy `` Tim '' ( edit ) Voiced by Max Beckford ( Season 1 ) , Andre Ottley - Lorant ( Season 2 - 4 ) , Kaden Stephen ( Rides Again ) Tim is African American , and is the most observant and artistic student . He can usually be found documenting what the class is doing , either by drawing or filming them , such as Liz posing on a crater on Mercury , his Ralphie - inspired comic book The Adventures of Weatherman , and getting footage of the swamp for evidence to argue Carlos 's case . His grandfather owns a honey bee farm outside of Walkerville , and as a small job , Tim delivers the honey at the start of winter . Like Dorothy Ann , his last name is never mentioned in canon ( the books or the TV show ) . He is known to say `` We 've been Frizzled ! '' In The Magic School Bus Rides Again , he speaks with a Jamaican accent . Wanda Li ( edit ) Voiced by Lisa Yamanaka ( original series ) , Lynsey Pham ( Rides Again ) Wanda Li is the toughest and most boisterous Chinese - American tomboy and the smallest member of the class . Always willing to jump into adventure and going where `` no kid has gone before , '' she serves as a foil to Arnold . She wants to solve all problems that face her . She can pull the metal handles off of large doors , using her powerful super strength ; and even she can jump the highest into the air . Despite her tough exterior , she loves ballet , especially The Nutcracker ( `` Holiday Special '' ) . Wanda 's favorite singer is Molly Cule ( a play on the word molecule ) , and she loves sports , fighting , rock music ( rather she 's playing her electric guitar ) and hanging out with boys . Despite coming across as brash and bossy , she truly does care about her friends , such as in `` Holiday Special , '' where she is disappointed that Arnold could not come along to see The Nutcracker due to his grandmother being ill . Wanda has black hair and white skin . She wears a red vest , decorated with yellow flowers , over a short sleeve pink t - shirt with matching red pants , white socks and black Mary Jane shoes . In some of the later books , her last name is Chen , as opposed to Li ( which it is on the TV series ) , and she has an older brother named Henry , whereas on the TV series , she only has a younger brother , William . When the class is in a problematic situation , Wanda usually cries out , `` What are we gon na do ? What are we gon na do ? What are we gon na do ? '' Her other catch phrase is `` Come on , you weaselly wimps ! '' The bus ( edit ) The bus is `` very unusual '' and sometimes seems to have a mind of its own . In appearance , it may look like a typical yellow school bus , but it is capable of shrinking and expanding , as well as transforming itself into many kinds of items , most commonly as robotic animals in order to blend in with the environment in safari - type field trips . When it shrinks , so do its passengers , and occasionally , when the bus returns to its normal size when something was left behind , the other item is set back to normal too ( `` Gets Eaten '' ) . It is usually completely under Ms. Frizzle 's or Liz 's control , although in certain episodes the bus exhibits independent , even irrational , behavior : in `` The Magic School Gets Ready , Set , Dough , '' the bus malfunctions and shrinks in size despite Ms. Frizzle trying to fix it . In `` The Magic School Bus Holiday Special '' , the bus disassembles itself into raw materials ( while scowling ) , after having done so to several other structures ( though Wanda did angrily slam her fists in the bus 's hood before it self - disassembled ) ; and in `` The Magic School Bus In The City '' , the bus , after becoming a bear , wanders off from the class into the city looking for food . Its abilities are due to unspecified , magical additions , the origins of which are never fully explained , although it would appear that the new components are subtle enough to avoid attracting much attention from outsiders as the bus is often seen undergoing inspection without anyone commenting on its additions . The Bus is capable of transforming into multiple objects , ranging from a speck of pollen to a time machine to a small planet . Some of the bus ' technologies also have specific names . For example , the device that allows the bus to shapeshift is called the `` Mesmerglober '' , and the device that allows it to change size is called the `` Shrinkerscope '' , ( a portable version is called the Porta - shrinker ) . Another device is called the Apidemonflemonjab , which is what caused the bus to malfunction in `` Gets Ready , Set , Dough . '' Its exact function is never specified . In some transformations , the bus itself comes in different colors , such as it turning green when it turned into an alligator . The dew - dinger is the device used to indicate whether the Shrinkerscope is wet , in which case it wo n't work . Some episodes have featured the class having to deal with problems in the Bus itself , such as a field trip to a bakery being jeopardized when the bus shrank unexpectedly , and another trip requiring the class to shrink down and travel through the bus itself after its engine was clogged by an inspector 's peanut butter sandwich . Relatives ( edit ) Frizzle family ( edit ) Dottie Frizzle is Valerie 's niece who appears in a 1997 book . Murph is Valerie 's southern - accented cousin . Her full name is Katrina Eloise Murphy and she is specifically a first cousin who owns and operates Murph 's Recycling Plant . She teaches the class the value of recycling in the 1996 episode `` Holiday Special '' . She often warns everyone to be careful when using the word `` junk . '' Voiced by Dolly Parton . Janet Perlstein ( edit ) Voiced by Renessa Blitz ( original series ) , Annelise Forbes ( Rides Again ) Janet is Arnold 's know - it - all , conceited cousin . She is very unpopular among the class , though she did manage to manipulate them into siding with her ( and turning on Phoebe ) when it came to naming the school mascot ( `` Butterfly and the Bog Beast '' ) . Janet is so self - seeking that she usually tries to digress the class in some way to gain something for herself . She at first did n't believe Arnold 's stories about his field trips until she went with the class and realizes that it 's all true . She initially appeared in the book The Magic School Bus Lost in the Solar System , where it was stated she went to another school , but on the TV series , she attends a different class instead of a different school . Janet seems to be an only child , as Arnold mentions that she is his only cousin in `` Butterfly and the Bog Beast .

who said nature is red in tooth and claw
In Memoriam A.H.H. - Wikipedia In Memoriam A.H.H. In Memoriam <Td_colspan="2"> by Alfred , Lord Tennyson <Td_colspan="2"> Title page of 1st edition ( 1850 ) Country United Kingdom Language English Genre ( s ) Requiem , Elegy Pages 90 pages Bust of Arthur Henry Hallam by Francis Leggatt Chantrey `` In Memoriam A.H.H. '' or simply `` In Memoriam '' is a poem by the British poet Alfred , Lord Tennyson , completed in 1849 . It is a requiem for the poet 's beloved Cambridge friend Arthur Henry Hallam , who died suddenly of a cerebral haemorrhage in Vienna in 1833 . It contains some of Tennyson 's most accomplished lyrical work , and is an unusually sustained exercise in lyric verse . It is widely considered to be one of the great poems of the 19th century . The original title of the poem was `` The Way of the Soul '' , and this might give an idea of how the poem is an account of all Tennyson 's thoughts and emotions as he grieves over the death of a close friend . He views the cruelty of nature and mortality in light of materialist science and faith . Owing to its length and its arguable breadth of focus , the poem might not be thought an elegy or a dirge in the strictest formal sense . Contents ( hide ) 1 Form 2 Quotation 3 Nature , red in tooth and claw 4 Queen Victoria and `` In Memoriam '' 5 Other themes 6 References 7 Further reading 8 External links Form ( edit ) The poem is not arranged exactly in the order in which it was written . The prologue , for example , is thought to have been one of the last things written . The earliest material is thought to be that which begins `` Fair ship , that from the Italian shore Saileth the placid ocean - plains '' and imagines the return of Hallam 's body from Italy . Critics believe , however , that the poem as a whole is meant to be chronological in terms of the progression of Tennyson 's grief . The passage of time is marked by the three descriptions of Christmas at different points in the poem , and the poem ends with a description of the marriage of Tennyson 's sister . `` In Memoriam '' is written in four - line ABBA stanzas of iambic tetrameter , and such stanzas are now called In Memoriam Stanzas . Though not metrically unusual , given the length of the work , the metre creates a tonal effect that often divides readers -- is it the natural sound of mourning and grief , or merely monotonous ? The poem is divided into 133 cantos ( including the prologue and epilogue ) , and in contrast to its constant and regulated metrical form , encompasses many different subjects : profound spiritual experiences , nostalgic reminiscence , philosophical speculation , Romantic fantasizing and even occasional verse . The death of Hallam , and Tennyson 's attempts to cope with this , remain the strand that ties all these together . Quotation ( edit ) The most frequently quoted lines in the poem are perhaps I hold it true , whate'er befall ; I feel it when I sorrow most ; ' Tis better to have loved and lost Than never to have loved at all . This stanza is to be found in Canto 27 . The last two lines are usually taken as offering a meditation on the dissolution of a romantic relationship . However , the lines originally referred to the death of the poet 's beloved friend . They are reminiscent of a line from William Congreve 's popular 1700 play , The Way of the World : `` ' tis better to be left than never to have been loved . '' Another much - quoted phrase from the poem is `` nature , red in tooth and claw , '' found in Canto 56 , referring to humanity : Who trusted God was love indeed And love Creation 's final law Tho ' Nature , red in tooth and claw With ravine , shriek 'd against his creed Also , the following are found in Canto 54 So runs my dream , but what am I ? An infant crying in the night An infant crying for the light And with no language but a cry . Also occasionally quoted are these lines from Canto 123 The hills are shadows , and they flow From form to form , and nothing stands ; They melt like mist , the solid lands , Like clouds they shape themselves and go . This references the recent discovery by geologists of Earth 's great age and mutability , a scientific wonder that underlay emerging ideas of nature and evolution . Nature , red in tooth and claw ( edit ) This poem was published before Charles Darwin made his theory public in 1859 . However , the phrase `` Nature , red in tooth and claw '' in canto 56 quickly was adopted by others as a phrase that evokes the process of natural selection . It was and is used by both those opposed to and in favour of the theory of evolution . Although this phrase `` tooth and claw '' is commonly ascribed to Tennyson , it already was in use . For example , The Hagerstown Mail in March 1837 : `` Hereupon , the beasts , enraged at the humbug , fell upon him tooth and claw . '' In writing the poem , Tennyson was influenced by the evolutionary ideas of transmutation of species presented in Vestiges of the Natural History of Creation which had been published in 1844 , and had caused a storm of controversy about the theological implications of impersonal nature functioning without direct divine intervention . An Evangelical focus on unquestioning belief in revealed truth taken from a literal interpretation of the Bible was already coming into conflict with emerging findings of science . Tennyson expressed the difficulties evolutionary ideas raised for faith in `` the truths that never can be proved '' , while still believing the older idea that reason would eventually harmonise science and religion , as there could be no real contradiction . Canto 55 asks : Are God and Nature then at strife , That Nature lends such evil dreams ? So careful of the type she seems , So careless of the single life ; That I , considering everywhere Her secret meaning in her deeds , And finding that of fifty seeds She often brings but one to bear , I falter where I firmly trod , And falling with my weight of cares Upon the great world 's altar - stairs That slope thro ' darkness up to God , I stretch lame hands of faith , and grope , And gather dust and chaff , and call To what I feel is Lord of all , And faintly trust the larger hope . Then in Canto 56 Tennyson asks whether Man ( Who trusted God was love indeed / And love Creation 's final law -- / Tho ' Nature , red in tooth and claw / With ravine , shriek 'd against his creed ) would also `` Be blown about the desert dust , Or seal 'd within the iron hills ? '' However , at the end of the poem , Tennyson emerges with his Christian faith reaffirmed , progressing from doubt and despair to faith and hope , a dominant theme also seen in his poem `` Ulysses '' . If e'er when faith had fallen asleep , I hear a voice ' believe no more ' And heard an ever - breaking shore That tumbled in the Godless deep ; A warmth within the breast would melt The freezing reason 's colder part , And like a man in wrath the heart Stood up and answer 'd ' I have felt . ' No , like a child in doubt and fear : But that blind clamour made me wise ; Then was I as a child that cries , But , crying knows his father near ; Queen Victoria and `` In Memoriam '' ( edit ) The poem was a great favourite of Queen Victoria , who after the death of Prince Albert wrote that she was `` soothed & pleased '' by it . In 1862 Victoria requested a meeting with Tennyson because she was so impressed by the poem , and when she met him again in 1883 she told him what a comfort it had been . Other themes ( edit ) The British literary scholar Christopher Ricks relates the following lines to Tennyson 's childhood home at Somersby Rectory in Somersby , Lincolnshire , particularly the poet 's departure after the death of his father . Unwatched , the garden bough shall sway , The tender blossom flutter down , Unloved , that beech will gather brown , This maple burn itself away .

The name derives from the Quechua kuntur . They are the largest flying land birds in the Western Hemisphere . They are : The Andean condor ( Vultur gryphus ) which inhabits the Andean mountains . The California condor ( Gymnogyps californianus ) currently restricted to the western coastal mountains of the United States and Mexico and the northern desert mountains of Arizona in the United States . Contents ( hide ) 1 Taxonomy 2 Description 3 Fossil record 4 Behavior 5 Other 6 Gallery 7 References 8 External links Taxonomy ( edit ) Further information : Andean condor § Taxonomy and systematics , and California condor § Taxonomy Condors are part of the family Cathartidae which contains the New World vultures , whereas the 15 species of Old World vultures are in the family Accipitridae , that also includes hawks , eagles , and kites . The New World and Old World vultures evolved from different ancestors . However , they both are carrion - eaters and have distinctive bare heads . Description ( edit ) Further information : Andean condor § Description , and California condor § Description Both condors are very large broad - winged soaring birds , the Andean condor being 5 cm shorter ( beak to tail ) on average than the northern species , but larger in wingspan . California condors are the largest flying land birds in North America . The Andean condor is second only to the wandering albatross ( up to 3.5 m ) in terms of wingspan among all living flying birds . The adult plumage is uniformly black , with the exception of a frill of white feathers nearly surrounding the base of the neck which are meticulously kept clean by the bird . As an adaptation for hygiene , the condor 's head and neck have few feathers , which exposes the skin to the sterilizing effects of dehydration and solar ultraviolet light at high altitudes . The head is much flattened above . In the male it is crowned with a caruncle or comb , while the skin of the neck in the male lies in folds , forming a wattle . The skin of the head and neck is capable of flushing noticeably in response to emotional state , which serves to communicate between individuals . Andean condor soars over southern Peru 's Colca Canyon Immature California condor The middle toe is greatly elongated , and the hinder one but slightly developed , while the talons of all the toes are comparatively straight and blunt . The feet are thus more adapted to walking as in their relatives the storks , and of little use as weapons or organs of prehension as in birds of prey and Old World vultures . The female , contrary to the usual rule among birds of prey , is smaller than the male . Although it is on average about five cm shorter from beak to tail than the California condor , the Andean condor is larger in wingspan , ranging from 274 to 310 cm ( 8.99 to 10.17 ft ) and heavier , reaching up to 11 to 15 kg ( 24 to 33 lb ) for males and 7.5 to 11 kg ( 17 to 24 lb ) for females . Overall length can range from 117 to 135 cm ( 46 to 53 in ) Measurements are usually taken from specimens reared in captivity . California condors ' wingspan measures up to 2.9 m ( 9.5 ft ) , and they can weigh up to 10.4 kg ( 23 lb ) . The skin on the necks will vary in color , depending on the age of the birds . Adult birds ' skin color can range from cream , pink , yellow , or even orange during breeding season . Fossil record ( edit ) Fossils from the Pleistocene era have been found in various parts of North America , including New York and Florida , leading scientists to believe that California condors or their ancestors once lived on the west coast of North America as well as all the way to the eastern coast . Some scientists also believe that an ancient relative of the condor , Argentavis magnificens from South America , may have been the largest flying bird ever with a wingspan of 7 metres ( 23 ft ) . Behavior ( edit ) Further information : Andean condor § Ecology and behavior , and California condor § Ecology and behavior Sexual maturity and breeding behavior do not appear in the condor until 5 or 6 years of age . They may live for 50 years or more , and mate for life . The world 's oldest condor died at 100 in the Jardin d'Essai du Hamma in Algiers . The young are covered with a grayish down until they are almost as large as their parents . They are able to fly after six months , but continue to roost and hunt with their parents until age two , when they are displaced by a new clutch . There is a well - developed social structure within large groups of condors , with competition to determine a ' pecking order ' by body language , competitive play behavior , and a wide variety of vocalizations , even though the condor has no voice box . On the wing the movements of the condor are graceful . The lack of a large sternum to anchor correspondingly large flight muscles identifies it physiologically as a primary soarer . The birds flap their wings on rising from the ground , but after attaining a moderate elevation they seem to sail on the air . Wild condors inhabit large territories , often traveling 250 km ( 160 mi ) a day in search of carrion . They prefer large carcasses such as deer or cattle which they spot by looking for other scavengers , which can not rip through the tougher hides of these larger animals with the efficiency of the larger condor . In the wild they are intermittent eaters , often going for a few days without eating , then gorging themselves on several kilograms at once , sometimes to the point of being unable to lift off the ground .

bedrock boundary is below sea level in many regions of the continent . If its ice cover were to be lifted , some rock that is currently below sea level would rise as the weight of the ice would be removed , although this would in part be counteracted , and in some areas of the continent overtaken , by eustatic rises in sea level . Jump up ^ Australia is more than three times the size of Greenland , the largest island . Australia is sometimes dubbed `` The Island Continent '' or `` Earth 's largest island but smallest continent '' . Jump up ^ It is thought that beneath the ice sheet Greenland may be three separate islands . Whether the places where the ice - bedrock boundary reaches below the sea level are land or sea is a matter of definition . The usual definition is that Greenland is one major island . Jump up ^ The Republic of China ( ROC ) is a state commonly referred to as Taiwan because of the island of Taiwan it is locating on . It is also diplomatically occasionally known as Chinese Taipei or other names . The ROC is no longer a United Nations member since late 1971 . The island of Taiwan is regarded by UN as Taiwan , Province of China ( see also One - China policy and political status of Taiwan ) . The ROC is currently recognized by the Holy See and 23 UN member states and with de facto international relations with most others . Taiwan keeps substantial cultural , economic , and military relations with the United States , Japan , EU countries among major states . The political status of the ROC and the legal status of Taiwan ( alongside the territories under the ROC jurisdiction since 1945 ) are in dispute . The ROC should not be confused with the People 's Republic of China ( PRC ) which is usually referred to as China , or the Republic of Taiwan proposed by supporters of Taiwan independence . Jump up ^ The Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus claims and controls one third of the island of Cyprus , although this is not recognised by any country except Turkey . ^ Jump up to : A dispute exists between the Governments of Argentina and the United Kingdom concerning sovereignty over the Falkland Islands . The territory is described as `` Falkland Islands ( Malvinas ) '' by the United Nations .

Kiffin formerly served as the offensive coordinator for the USC Trojans football team from 2005 to 2006 , head coach of the National Football League 's Oakland Raiders from 2007 to 2008 , head coach of the University of Tennessee Volunteers college football team in 2009 , and head coach of the Trojans from 2010 to 2013 . He was the youngest head coach in modern NFL history at the time when he joined the Raiders ( until in 2017 when Sean McVay joined the Rams ) , and , for a time , was the youngest head coach of a BCS Conference team in college football . Kiffin was the offensive coordinator at the University of Alabama from 2014 until 2016 , when he was hired at Florida Atlantic . Kiffin is the son of longtime NFL defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin .

He played backup quarterback for the Bulldogs , giving up his senior season to become a Student Assistant Coach for position coach Jeff Tedford , who would later become the head coach at Cal in 2002 . Kiffin graduated from Fresno State in 1998 . Coaching career ( edit ) Early positions ( edit ) Kiffin worked as a graduate assistant for one year at Colorado State University . In 1999 , while he was working with the offensive line , the Rams played in the Liberty Bowl . Kiffin secured a job with the Jacksonville Jaguars of the NFL as a quality control assistant for one year . He was then hired by head coach Pete Carroll as a tight ends coach at USC . USC Trojans assistant coach ( edit ) Kiffin began working with the University of Southern California ( USC ) staff during the 2001 season and became the wide receivers coach prior to the 2002 season . For the 2004 season , he added the duties of passing game coordinator , and he was promoted to offensive coordinator along with Steve Sarkisian for the 2005 season after Norm Chow left USC for the same position with the NFL 's Tennessee Titans . In addition to his duties as offensive coordinator , Kiffin took the reins as recruiting coordinator that year . Along with these duties , Kiffin continued as the wide receivers coach . Under Kiffin and Sarkisian , the 2005 USC offense produced numerous school records , averaging 49.1 points and 579 yards per game and becoming the first in NCAA history to have a 3,000 yard passer ( Matt Leinart ) , two 1,000 yard rushers ( Reggie Bush and LenDale White ) , and a 1,000 yard receiver ( Dwayne Jarrett ) . Steve Smith fell a few yards short of also surpassing 1,000 yards in receiving . In Kiffin 's three years as recruiting coordinator at USC , the Trojans had the top ranked recruiting class in college football every year . The Trojans finished first in the Pac - 10 in passing efficiency by averaging 142.8 passer rating , produced two , 1,000 - yard receivers -- Dwayne Jarrett ( 1,105 ) and Steve Smith ( 1,083 ) -- and a 3,000 - yard passer John David Booty , with 3,347 yards . The team produced top 20 statistics in most NCAA offensive categories and concluded with a 32 -- 18 win over the then # 3 ranked team the University of Michigan in the Rose Bowl . Kiffin helped guide USC to a 23 -- 3 record during his tenure as offensive coordinator , an 88.5 % win percentage ; however , in June 2010 , the NCAA retroactively declared Reggie Bush ineligible for the entire 2005 season , and forced USC to vacate all of its 2005 wins . Litigation from former coach Todd McNair to overturn those vacancies is still ongoing . Oakland Raiders ( edit ) Raiders ' owner Al Davis hired the 31 year - old Kiffin on January 23 , 2007 , making him the youngest head coach in Oakland Raiders history , and the youngest head coach in the NFL 's `` modern era '' ( since 1946 ) , and signed Kiffin to a two - year contract worth about $4 million with a team option for 2009 . Pro Football Hall of Fame Coach John Madden was 32 when he was elevated to the head post by Davis in 1969 . Davis had been known to select young , up - and - coming coaches in their thirties ; those hires who fared well include John Madden , Mike Shanahan , and Jon Gruden . All have won Super Bowls , though Madden is the only one of the three to win a championship with the Raiders . Age 31 at the time of his hiring by the Raiders ( 32 when he coached his first game ) , Kiffin became the youngest head coach in modern NFL history ; he also surpassed the New York Jets ' Eric Mangini and the Pittsburgh Steelers ' Mike Tomlin as the youngest head coach since the AFL -- NFL merger in 1970 . On August 12 , 2007 , in his NFL head coaching debut , Kiffin and the Raiders won their preseason opener 27 -- 23 over the Arizona Cardinals . Kiffin vehemently opposed the selection of LSU quarterback JaMarcus Russell in the 2007 NFL Draft , who would eventually be regarded as one of the biggest draft busts in NFL history . Russell held out until September 12 , and did not make his first start until December 2 , long after the season was effectively over . Kiffin recorded his first regular season win as an NFL head coach on September 23 , 2007 ; the Raiders defeated the Cleveland Browns by a score of 26 -- 24 when defensive lineman Tommy Kelly blocked a late Cleveland field goal . At his end - of - the - season press conference , Kiffin told the media and his players that he had many plans and changes he was going to make in the 2008 offseason . When asked by his players about rumors that Kiffin was interested in open coaching positions in college football , he told them he never thought the rumors were important enough to address because he was never planning to leave . Departure from the Raiders ( edit ) On January 25 , 2008 , ESPN NFL analyst Chris Mortensen reported that Davis , who was not known for being patient with his coaches , tried to force Kiffin to resign after his first season ended with a 4 -- 12 record . A source allegedly close to Kiffin told Mortensen that Kiffin would not resign , and would not sign the letter of resignation that would cause him to forfeit his $2 million salary for the remaining guaranteed year of his contract . However , the Raiders denied the story , while Kiffin refused to comment . On September 15 , 2008 , NBC Sports reported Davis was unhappy with Kiffin , and intended to fire him as soon as the following Monday or Tuesday . On September 30 , 2008 , Davis fired Kiffin over the telephone . At the televised news conference announcing the firing , Davis called Kiffin `` a flat - out liar '' and said he was guilty of `` bringing disgrace to the organization '' . The Raiders said the move was made for cause , meaning they would terminate his contract immediately without paying the $2.6 million that was left on it for 2008 . Kiffin later added in an interview with ESPN that he was not proud to be associated with Davis 's accusations and was actually more embarrassed for Davis than himself . The Raiders subsequently released a letter Davis sent to Kiffin on September 12 that warned him that he was on the verge of being fired for `` conduct detrimental to the Raiders , '' including repeated instances of making excuses and outright lies . Kiffin 's post-firing press conference was canceled . Kiffin filed a grievance against the Raiders , claiming that he was fired without cause , but on November 15 , 2010 , an arbitrator ruled that Davis did indeed have cause to fire Kiffin . Kiffin 's short tenure as the Raiders ' head coach ended with a 5 -- 15 record . Offensive line coach Tom Cable was given interim head coaching duties for the remainder of the 2008 season and was later made their permanent head coach on February 4 , 2009 . Several of his former Raider staff expressed interest as Kiffin began assembling his new staff at the University of Tennessee . On December 15 , 2008 , Raiders head coach Tom Cable lashed out at Kiffin for hiring one of his assistants , James Cregg , with two weeks remaining in the NFL season . Cable called the timing of Cregg 's departure `` wrong in the business of coaching '' and indicated he had lost respect for Kiffin and planned to confront him about it . Nothing further was said publicly regarding the incident . Despite the animosity between the Raiders and Kiffin , he released a statement following Al Davis 's death in October 2011 stating that although their relationship had not ended well , he appreciated the opportunity Davis had given him and had `` nothing but the greatest respect '' for the late Raiders owner . Tennessee Volunteers ( edit ) On November 28 , 2008 , multiple media outlets reported that Kiffin would be the next head football coach for the University of Tennessee Volunteers in 2009 , replacing head coach Phillip Fulmer , who retired . Tennessee formally introduced Kiffin as the school 's 21st head football coach on December 1 , 2008 in a 2 : 00 p.m. news conference . At the age of 33 , Kiffin was hired by Tennessee and became the youngest active head coach in Division I FBS , surpassing Northwestern 's Pat Fitzgerald . Kiffin signed a memorandum of understanding with the University of Tennessee on November 30 , 2008 . The deal included $2 million in 2009 , with additional performance bonuses , including a $300,000 bonus if Tennessee was to compete for the national championship . His salary was set to increase over the six - year - deal , reaching a high of $2.75 million in 2014 . The average salary of the deal was $2.375 million . If Kiffin had been fired in 2009 or 2010 , the school would have to pay him $7.5 million under a buyout clause ; after the 2012 season , the buyout clause decreased to $5 million . Kiffin 's contract stated that if he resigned , he would have to pay UT $1 million in 2009 , with the sum decreasing by $200,000 each year of his contract . Kiffin led the Vols to a 7 -- 6 record in 2009 , an improvement from their 5 -- 7 record in 2008 . The Vols increased their offensive output by more than 60 percent in 2009 with Kiffin calling the offensive plays . Highlights included wins over South Carolina , Georgia , and Kentucky . However , the season was marred by losses to UCLA , Florida , Auburn , Alabama , and Ole Miss , as well as a 23 - point blow - out loss to Virginia Tech in the Chick - fil - A Bowl . After one season as coach , Kiffin left the Vols during the 2010 recruiting season to accept the head coaching job at the University of Southern California after Pete Carroll left to go to the Seattle Seahawks . Remarks and accusations ( edit ) On February 5 , 2009 , during a Tennessee booster breakfast at the Knoxville Convention Center , Kiffin accused Urban Meyer , then head coach of the Florida Gators and currently head coach of the Ohio State Buckeyes , of violating NCAA recruiting rules . `` I 'm going to turn Florida in right here in front of you , '' Kiffin told the crowd . `` As Nu'Keese ( Richardson ) was here on campus , his phone keeps ringing . And so one of our coaches is sitting in the meeting with him and says , ' Who is that ? ' And he looks at the phone and says , ' Urban Meyer . ' Just so you know , you ca n't call a recruit on another campus . But I love the fact that Urban had to cheat and still did n't get him . '' While Kiffin accused Meyer of violating NCAA rules , he incidentally violated a Southeastern Conference rule that prevented coaches from mentioning a recruit by name . Kiffin 's accusations against Meyer were mistaken . Southeastern Conference commissioner Mike Slive issued a public reprimand to Kiffin because of the comment . In addition to the SEC 's public reprimand , Florida Athletic Director Jeremy Foley demanded a public apology from Kiffin . Kiffin issued a public apology one day after making the comment . In a statement released by the University of Tennessee , Kiffin wrote , `` In my enthusiasm for our recruiting class , I made some statements that were meant solely to excite those at the breakfast . If I offended anyone at the University of Florida , including Mr. Foley and Urban Meyer , I sincerely apologize . That was not my intention . '' Kiffin generated further controversy when he told wide receiver recruit Alshon Jeffery that if Jeffery chose the Gamecocks , `` he would end up pumping gas for the rest of his life like all the other players from that state who had gone to South Carolina . '' Jeffery went on to sign with the University of South Carolina Gamecocks and became the second round , 45th pick overall in the 2012 NFL Draft being signed by the Chicago Bears , and selected to the 2014 Pro Bowl . Kiffin denied making the statement , however the incident was corroborated by Jeffery 's high school coach Walter Wilson , who was listening to Kiffin 's remarks on speakerphone . Departure from Tennessee ( edit ) Kiffin 's departure for USC in 2010 after just one season as head coach of the Volunteers upset some students and fans of the University of Tennessee . When Tennessee athletic director Mike Hamilton was asked for an assessment of Kiffin 's tenure coaching the Volunteers , he responded with just one word : `` Brief . '' Hundreds of students rioted on campus at the news of Kiffin 's departure . Knoxville police and fire department were brought in after students blocked the exit from the Neyland Thompson Sports Center and started several small fires . USC Trojans ( edit ) Kiffin talking to Trojans quarterback Matt Barkley in 2010 . Kiffin with the USC Trojans in 2011 . On January 12 , 2010 , Kiffin returned to USC to become the Trojans ' head coach . This came following Pete Carroll 's departure from USC to become the head coach of the Seattle Seahawks . In June 2010 , after a prolonged four - year investigation into whether former USC running back Reggie Bush and his family had accepted financial benefits and housing from two sports agents in San Diego while he was a student athlete at USC , the NCAA imposed sanctions against the Trojan football program for a `` lack of institutional control , '' including a two - year postseason ban , the loss of 30 scholarships over three years , and the vacation of all wins in which Bush participated as an `` ineligible '' player , including the 2005 Orange Bowl , in which the Trojans won the BCS National Championship . The severity of these sanctions has been criticized by some NCAA football writers , including ESPN 's Ted Miller , who wrote , `` It 's become an accepted fact among informed college football observers that the NCAA sanctions against USC were a travesty of justice , and the NCAA 's refusal to revisit that travesty are a massive act of cowardice on the part of the organization . '' Kiffin 's tenure at USC was widely considered a disappointment . Questionable coaching calls and the restrictions of sanctions contributed to a sense of missed opportunity for Kiffin and the Trojans . 2010 season ( edit ) See also : 2010 USC Trojans football team In 2010 , his first season at USC , Kiffin 's Trojans team finished the season with an 8 -- 5 record but were ineligible for post-season play due to the NCAA sanctions . After the NCAA issued a guideline allowing current USC juniors and seniors to automatically transfer from USC without having to sit out a year , several USC players left before the start of the 2010 season , including Malik Jackson and Byron Moore to Tennessee , Travon Patterson to Colorado , D.J. Shoemate to Connecticut , Uona Kaveinga to BYU , and Blake Ayles to Miami , among others . Seantrel Henderson , who had signed a letter of intent to USC , was granted a release by Kiffin and immediately enrolled at Miami . Both Kiffin and former head coach Pete Carroll publicly referred to this NCAA - transfer exception as `` free agency '' because it allowed current USC players to be targeted for transfer opportunities and granted them immediate eligibility at their transfer destination . USC played the 2010 season with just 71 scholarship players , some of whom were redshirt candidates who did not play , instead of the normal NCAA allowance of 85 scholarship players . Season highlights included a 48 -- 14 win over the California Golden Bears in which quarterback Matt Barkley tied the USC record for touchdown passes in a game by completing five in just the first half to put the Trojans up 42 -- 0 at halftime . After losing to rival Notre Dame for the first time in eight years , USC bounced back to close their season with a win over cross-town rival UCLA to retain the Victory Bell . Quarterback Matt Barkley returned after missing the previous week and threw one of the team 's two touchdown passes . Allen Bradford led the Trojans by gaining 212 yards rushing and catching a 47 - yard touchdown pass . 2011 season ( edit ) See also : 2011 USC Trojans football team In 2011 , Kiffin coached the Trojans to a 10 -- 2 record ( 7 -- 2 in the Pac - 12 ) , despite being ineligible for post-season play for the second consecutive season . On May 26 , 2011 , the NCAA 's Appeals Committee upheld the sanctions against USC , after ruling that the use of precedent was not allowed under NCAA Bylaws , so the USC football team could not participate in the Pac - 12 Football Championship Game ( although they held the best record in the South division ) or play in a bowl game during the 2011 -- 12 season . The BCS announced June 6 , 2011 , that it had stripped USC of the 2004 title , though USC still retains the 2003 and 2004 AP National Championships . Season highlights included road wins against the California Golden Bears , Notre Dame Fighting Irish , and Oregon Ducks . Kiffin 's Trojans lost in triple overtime to the Stanford Cardinal , who were led by quarterback Andrew Luck , but they bounced back by winning their last four games and defeating the UCLA Bruins 50 -- 0 at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum , which extended the Trojans ' victory streak against the Bruins to five . USC ended the season with two thousand - yard receivers ( Robert Woods and Marqise Lee ) , a thousand - yard rusher ( Curtis McNeal ) , and a 3,000 - yard passer ( Matt Barkley ) for the first time since the 2005 season , when Kiffin was the offensive coordinator . 2012 season ( edit ) See also : 2012 USC Trojans football team Kiffin for the first time became a voting member of the USA Today Coaches ' Poll , but he resigned after just one vote amidst controversy over his preseason selection of USC as No. 1 . After being informed that Arizona coach Rich Rodriguez had voted the Trojans as the top team , Kiffin told reporters , `` I would not vote USC No. 1 , I can tell you that much . '' However , USA Today , citing the need to `` protect the poll 's integrity '' , revealed that Kiffin had voted his team for the top spot . Kiffin apologized and explained that his comments were from the perspective of an opposing coach voting for USC . The Trojans finished the season with a 7 -- 6 record overall and a 5 -- 4 record in Pac - 12 conference play . The Trojans were ranked # 1 in both major polls at the start of the season , but a lackluster season ( including a . 500 record in conference play ) left them unranked by the end of the season . Prior to 2012 , the last time a team that was the pre-season ranked # 1 finished the season unranked was USC in 1963 . 2013 season and firing ( edit ) See also : 2013 USC Trojans football team The Trojans lost their first two conference games of the 2013 season against Washington State and Arizona State , making Kiffin 's record 4 -- 7 in his last eleven games . On September 28 , 2013 , after the 62 -- 41 loss to Arizona State , USC Athletics Director Pat Haden fired Kiffin hours after the game , when the team arrived back in Los Angeles at 3 a.m. Kiffin was called off the team bus that was preparing to head back to campus from Los Angeles International Airport and taken to a small room inside the terminal where Haden told Kiffin he was being dismissed . Haden supposedly met with USC president Max Nikias in the third quarter and they decided Kiffin should be terminated . Haden formally announced the decision to dismiss Kiffin the next day . Assistant coach Ed Orgeron took over for Kiffin and led the team to a 6 -- 2 finish , including an upset win against Stanford at the Coliseum . USC won the 2013 Las Vegas Bowl under interim head coach Clay Helton against Fresno State . Former USC associate head coach and Washington head coach Steve Sarkisian was hired by Haden following the season . Alabama Crimson Tide ( edit ) In December 2013 , Kiffin spent eight days in Tuscaloosa , Alabama reviewing the Alabama Crimson Tide football team 's offense . On January 9 , 2014 , after Michigan hired Alabama offensive coordinator Doug Nussmeier , Kiffin interviewed for the vacant coordinator job . Kiffin was offered the job as offensive coordinator at Alabama and accepted on January 10 . In 2014 , Kiffin was a finalist for the Broyles Award , given annually to the nation 's top college football assistant coach . On January 2 , 2017 , Kiffin was relieved of his duties as Offensive Coordinator . He was replaced by another former USC head coach and his successor at that job , Steve Sarkisian , for the 2017 College Football Playoff National Championship 35 -- 31 loss against Clemson and for the upcoming season . Lane Kiffin at 2017 C - USA media days Florida Atlantic Owls ( edit ) On December 12 , 2016 , Kiffin accepted the head coaching position at Florida Atlantic University . After a 1 - 3 start , the FAU Owl reeled off ten straight wins , culminating in the Conference USA football championship against University of North Texas , 41 - 17 , on their home field . FAU was slated to play the University of Akron in the Boca Raton Bowl on December 19 , 2017 . On December 19 , 2017 , before the game against Akron it was announced on ESPN that Kiffin and FAU had agreed to a new deal that would keep him on for the next ten years through the 2027 season . John Kelly , the President of FAU was quoted in the article as saying , `` This is further proof of FAU 's unbridled ambition ... I thought we could be a Top - 25 program and we need a coach who can do that , he 's on the verge of doing that . We 're obviously looking toward keeping Lane long term . '' In his first year with FAU , Kiffin led the Owls to an 11 - 3 season after a 50 - 3 victory over Akron in the Boca Raton Bowl on December 19 , 2017 . The 11 - 3 season was the first season over . 500 for the FAU Owls since 2008 , and the first time they have achieved over ten wins while competing at the Division 1 Football level . The 2017 FAU Football Season is only the 4th time in school history they had a winning record in Division 1 Football . Personal life ( edit ) Lane is the son of Monte Kiffin , a long time defensive coordinator in the National Football League , most notably for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers . Monte resigned as the defensive coordinator on Lane 's staff at USC and was hired for the same position with the Dallas Cowboys . Lane and his ex-wife Layla , who is a University of Florida alumna , have three children , daughters Landry and Pressley and son , Monte Knox Kiffin . Kiffin 's brother , Chris , was a defensive lineman at Colorado State University and is the current defensive coordinator for FAU .

On February 28 , 2016 , Lane and Layla announced that they were separating and had mutually decided to divorce .

Fapp Edited by Frederic Steinkamp Distributed by Metro - Goldwyn - Mayer Release date June 11 , 1964 ( 1964 - 06 - 11 ) Running time 128 minutes Country United States Language English Box office $11 million The Unsinkable Molly Brown is a 1964 American musical film directed by Charles Walters and starring Debbie Reynolds . The screenplay by Helen Deutsch is based on the book of the 1960 musical The Unsinkable Molly Brown by Richard Morris . The song score was composed by Meredith Willson . The plot is a fictionalized account of the life of Margaret Brown , who survived the 1912 sinking of the RMS Titanic . Debbie Reynolds was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actress for her portrayal of Brown . Contents ( hide ) 1 Plot 2 Production 3 Cast 4 Musical numbers 5 Critical reception 6 Awards and honors 7 DVD release 8 References 9 External links Plot ( edit ) Rescued from the Colorado River as an infant and raised by Seamus Tobin , tomboy Molly Brown is determined to find a wealthy man to marry . She journeys to Leadville , Colorado and is hired as a saloon singer by Christmas Morgan . After miner Johnny Brown renovates his cabin , the two wed , and he sells his claim in a silver mine for $300,000 . Soon after the money Molly hid in the stove is accidentally burnt , Johnny discovers the richest gold vein in state history . The Browns and Seamus move into a Denver mansion , and Molly sets out to improve her social status by trying to ingratiate herself with the city 's elite , all of whom snub her and her nouveau riche ways . She and Johnny go to Europe , where they are embraced by royalty , and the couple return to Denver with their new friends . Molly 's plan to introduce them to the people who formerly rejected her is derailed by Johnny 's rough and tumble friends , whose unexpected and boisterous arrival ruins the gala party Molly is hosting . Molly decides to return to Europe , leaving Johnny behind . She initially falls for the charms of Prince Louis de Lanière , but eventually decides she prefers to live with Johnny in Leadville . For the first time in her life , she realizes that someone else 's feelings and priorities need to be considered . Setting sail for home aboard the Titanic , she becomes a heroine when the ship sinks and she helps rescue many of her fellow passengers . When her deed makes international headlines , Molly is welcomed home by Johnny and the people of Denver . Production ( edit ) Harve Presnell was the sole member of the original Broadway cast who was invited to reprise his stage role in the film . Although Tammy Grimes had originated the title role and had won the Tony Award for Best Performance by a Featured Actress in a Musical for her performance , MGM executives wanted Shirley MacLaine for the film . After she signed , producer Hal Wallis claimed she was under contract to him , and MacLaine was forced to withdraw from the project . When Debbie Reynolds was cast instead , MacLaine publicly accused her of agreeing to accept a lower salary in order to land the role , and director Charles Walters , who preferred MacLaine , tried to persuade Reynolds to turn down the part . Exteriors were filmed in the Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park in western Colorado . Only five of the seventeen musical numbers from the stage musical were used in the film , and Meredith Willson wrote `` He 's My Friend '' to extend the song score . Peter Gennaro , who had choreographed the original Broadway production , staged the musical sequences . During production , M-G-M was putting all its resources into its forthcoming Doctor Zhivago ( 1965 ) , and at least $1 million was cut from the budget of Molly Brown . Running out of money to complete the film , director Charles Walters proposed cutting the rousing dance number `` He 's My Friend '' . To save the number , cast and crew ultimately decided to film it in one rigorous day using multiple cameras to reduce shooting time . The film was the 12th largest grossing attraction of 1964 , grossing $11,070,559 at the domestic box office . It earned $7.5 million in US theatrical rentals . Cast ( edit ) Debbie Reynolds ...

Weiler of The New York Times called the film `` big , brassy , bold and freewheeling '' but added , `` The tones are ringing , but often hollow . Molly is a colorful character all right , and the screen , which is as wide as can be , is filled with vivid colors that help project the fact that this is merely a satisfying musical comedy and not an inspired subject . '' He continued , `` This is not to say that Meredith Willson 's score is not tuneful and lilting but to this listener it is good , sweet corn that is more palatable than memorable . Mr. Gennaro , on the other hand , has devised dances that more than complement Mr. Willson 's music . They may seem to be improvised but they have the true marks of professionalism in their carefully plotted verve , bounce and exuberance . '' He concluded , `` The Unsinkable Molly Brown , in the person of Miss Reynolds , and the other principals , often mistakes vigor for art . But Metro 's lavish and attractive production numbers make up for this basic superficiality . For all of its shallowness , Molly is a cheerful and entertaining addition to the local screen scene '' . Variety observed , `` In essence , it 's a pretty shallow story since the title character , when you get right down to it , is obsessed with a very superficial , egotistical problem beneath her generous , razzmatazz facade . On top of that , Willson 's score is rather undistinguished . Debbie Reynolds thrusts herself into the role with an enormous amount of verve and vigor . At times her approach to the character seems more athletic than artful . Harve Presnell ... makes a generally auspicious screen debut as the patient Johnny . His fine , booming voice and physical stature make him a valuable commodity for Hollywood '' . Channel 4 called it an `` amiable comedy with a handful of good tunes '' that `` lacks the satirical bite which its story may suggest . Sometimes the director seems to feel more at ease with the melodramatic moments than the comedy ones '' . Time Out London noted , `` As ebulliently energetic as ever , Reynolds makes the brash social climbing both funny and touching , but the film itself gets trapped in two minds between satire and sentimentality . The score ... though pleasant , is rather thinly spread ; but the sets are a delight in the best traditions of the MGM musical , and Walters does a wonderfully graceful job of direction '' . TV Guide rated the film three out of four stars and commented , `` A rambunctious and spirited effort from Reynolds ... saves this otherwise weakly scripted , familiar musical from the long list of forgotten pictures '' . Awards and honors ( edit ) Academy Award nominations went to Debbie Reynolds for Best Actress ; George Davis , E. Preston Ames , Henry Grace , and Hugh Hunt for Best Color Art Direction and Set Decoration ; Daniel L. Fapp for Best Color Cinematography ; Morton Haack for Best Color Costume Design ; Robert Armbruster , Leo Arnaud , Jack Elliott , Jack Hayes , Calvin Jackson , and Leo Shuken for Best Music , Scoring of Music , Adaptation or Treatment ; and Franklin Milton for Best Sound . The film was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture -- Musical or Comedy and Reynolds was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress -- Motion Picture Musical or Comedy . Helen Deutsch was nominated for the Writers Guild of America Award for Best Written American Musical . The film is recognized by American Film Institute in these lists : 2006 : AFI 's Greatest Movie Musicals -- Nominated DVD release ( edit ) Warner Home Video released the Region 1 DVD on September 19 , 2000 .

The brainchild of Sir Hugh Beaver , the book was co-founded by brothers Norris and Ross McWhirter in Fleet Street , London in August 1954 . The book itself holds a world record , as the best - selling copyrighted book of all time . As of the 2017 edition , it is now in its 62nd year of publication , published in 100 countries and 23 languages . The international franchise has extended beyond print to include television series and museums . The popularity of the franchise has resulted in Guinness World Records becoming the primary international authority on the cataloguing and verification of a huge number of world records ; the organisation employs official record adjudicators authorised to verify the authenticity of the setting and breaking of records .

After missing a shot at a golden plover , he became involved in an argument over which was the fastest game bird in Europe , the golden plover or the red grouse ( it is the plover ) . That evening at Castlebridge House , he realized that it was impossible to confirm in reference books whether or not the golden plover was Europe 's fastest game bird . Beaver knew that there must be numerous other questions debated nightly in pubs throughout Ireland and abroad , but there was no book in the world with which to settle arguments about records . He realised then that a book supplying the answers to this sort of question might prove successful . Beaver 's idea became reality when Guinness employee Christopher Chataway recommended University friends Norris and Ross McWhirter , who had been running a fact - finding agency in London . The twin brothers were commissioned to compile what became The Guinness Book of Records in August 1954 . A thousand copies were printed and given away . After the founding of The Guinness Book of Records at 107 Fleet Street , London , the first 198 - page edition was bound on 27 August 1955 and went to the top of the British best seller lists by Christmas . The following year , it launched in the US , and sold 70,000 copies . Since then , Guinness World Records has become a household name and the global leader in world records . The book has gone on to become a record breaker in its own right ; with sales of more than 100 million copies in 100 different countries and 37 languages , Guinness World Records is the world 's best selling copyright book ever . Japanese competitive eater Takeru Kobayashi with two Guinness World Record certificates The North Beach ( Nazaré , Portugal ) listed on the Guinness World Records for the biggest waves ever surfed . Because the book became a surprise hit , many further editions were printed , eventually settling into a pattern of one revision a year , published in September / October , in time for Christmas . The McWhirters continued to compile it for many years . Both brothers had an encyclopedic memory ; on the TV series Record Breakers , based upon the book , they would take questions posed by children in the audience on various world records and were able to give the correct answer . Ross McWhirter was assassinated by the Provisional Irish Republican Army in 1975 . Following Ross ' assassination , the feature in the show where questions about records posed by children were answered was called Norris on the Spot . Guinness Superlatives ( later Guinness World Records ) Limited was formed in 1954 to publish the first book . Sterling Publishing owned the rights to the Guinness book in the US for decades . The group was owned by Guinness PLC and subsequently Diageo until 2001 , when it was purchased by Gullane Entertainment . Gullane was itself purchased by HIT Entertainment in 2002 . In 2006 , Apax Partners purchased HiT and subsequently sold Guinness World Records in early 2008 to the Jim Pattison Group , the parent company of Ripley Entertainment , which is licensed to operate Guinness World Records ' Attractions . With offices in New York City and Tokyo , Guinness World Records ' global headquarters remain in London , while its museum attractions are based at Ripley headquarters in Orlando , Florida , US . Evolution ( edit ) Lucky Diamond Rich is `` the world 's most tattooed person '' , and has tattoos covering his entire body . He holds the Guinness world record as of 2006 , being 100 percent tattooed . Recent editions have focused on record feats by person competitors . Competitions range from obvious ones such as Olympic weightlifting to the longest egg tossing distances , or for longest time spent playing Grand Theft Auto IV or the number of hot dogs that can be consumed in ten minutes , although eating and alcohol consumption entries are no longer accepted , possibly for fear of litigation . Besides records about competitions , it contains such facts as the heaviest tumour , the most poisonous plant , the shortest river ( Roe River ) , the two longest - running dramas ( General Hospital and Guiding Light ) in the US , and the world 's most successful salesman ( Joe Girard ) , among others . Many records also relate to the youngest person who achieved something , such as the youngest person to visit all nations of the world , being Maurizio Giuliano . Each edition contains a selection of the records from the Guinness database , as well as select new records ; the criteria for inclusion having changed over the years . The ousting of Norris McWhirter from his consulting role in 1995 and the subsequent decision by Diageo Plc to sell the Guinness World Records brand have shifted it from a text - oriented to an illustrated reference book ( `` style over substance '' ) . The majority of world records are no longer listed in the book or on the website , and can only be determined by a written application to Guinness to ' break ' the record . For those unable to wait the 4 -- 6 weeks for a reply , Guinness will process a ' fast - track ' application for £ 300 ( US $450 ) ( EU300 ) . The Guinness Book of Records is the world 's most sold copyrighted book , earning it an entry within its own pages . A number of spin - off books and television series have also been produced . Guinness World Records bestowed the record of `` Person with the most records '' on Ashrita Furman of Queens , NY in April 2009 . At that time , he held 100 records . In 2005 , Guinness designated 9 November as International Guinness World Records Day to encourage breaking of world records . In 2006 , an estimated 100,000 people participated in over 10 countries . Guinness reported 2,244 new records in 12 months , which was a 173 % increase over the previous year . In February 2008 , NBC aired The Top 100 Guinness World Records of All Time and Guinness World Records made the complete list available on their website . Defining Records ( edit ) Sultan Kösen ( Turkey ) is the tallest living person since 17 September 2009 , as verified by Guinness World Records . Play media Cracking open a wheel of Parmigiano - Reggiano cheese as a part of a 2013 world record by Whole Foods Market . For many records , Guinness World Records is the effective authority on the exact requirements for them and with whom records reside , the company providing adjudicators to events to determine the veracity of record attempts . The list of records which the Guinness World Records covers is not fixed ; records may be added and also removed for various reasons . The public are invited to submit applications for records , which can be either the bettering of existing records or substantial achievements which could constitute a new record . The company also provides corporate services for companies to `` harness the power of record - breaking to deliver tangible success for their businesses . '' Ethical and safety issues ( edit ) Steven Petrosino drinking 1 litre of beer in 1.3 seconds in June 1977 . Petrosino set record times for 250 ml , 500 ml and 1.5 litres as well , but Guinness accepted only the record for one litre . They later dropped all beer and alcohol records from their compendium in 1991 , and reinstated the records in 2008 . Guinness World Records states several types of records it will not accept for ethical reasons , such as those related to the killing or harming of animals . Several world records that were once included in the book have been removed for ethical reasons , including concerns for the well being of potential record breakers . For example , following publication of a `` heaviest fish '' record , many fish owners overfed their pets beyond the bounds of what was healthy , and therefore such entries were removed . The Guinness Book also dropped records within their `` eating and drinking records '' section of Human Achievements in 1991 over concerns that potential competitors could harm themselves and expose the publisher to potential litigation . These changes included the removal of all spirit , wine , and beer drinking records , along with other unusual records for consuming such unlikely things as bicycles and trees . Other records , such as sword swallowing and rally driving ( on public roads ) , were closed from further entry as the current holders had performed beyond what are considered safe human tolerance levels . There have been instances of closed records being reopened . For example , the sword swallowing record was listed as closed in the 1990 Guinness Book of World Records , but the Guinness World Records Primetime TV show , which started in 1998 , accepted three sword swallowing challenges ( and so did the 2007 edition of the Guinness World Records onwards ) . Similarly , the speed beer drinking records which were dropped from the book in 1991 , reappeared 17 years later in the 2008 edition , but were moved from the `` Human Achievements '' section of the older book to the `` Modern Society '' section of the newer edition . As of 2011 , it is required in the guidelines of all `` large food '' type records that the item be fully edible , and distributed to the public for consumption , to prevent food wastage . Chain letters are also not allowed : `` Guinness World Records does not accept any records relating to chain letters , sent by post or e-mail . If you receive a letter or an e-mail , which may promise to publish the names of all those who send it on , please destroy it , it is a hoax . No matter if it says that Guinness World Records and the postal service are involved , they are not . '' Difficulty in defining Records ( edit ) For some potential categories , Guinness World Records has declined to list some records that are too difficult or impossible to determine . For example , its website states : `` We do not accept any claims for beauty as it is not objectively measurable . '' On 10 December 2010 , Guinness World Records stopped its new `` dreadlock '' category after investigation of its first and only female title holder , Asha Mandela , determining it was impossible to judge this record accurately . Verifying existing Records ( edit ) Guinness World Records website publishes selected records and is not supposed to be used for the record verification purposes , as it explains : `` There are more than 40,000 current records in our database and we try our best to feature as many as possible online . We currently include over 15,000 records online which we update every week , so make sure to check the site regularly ! '' The book printed annually contains only 4,000 records . The only way to verify a record is to contact Guinness , and the average response time is twelve weeks . Museums ( edit ) Guinness Museum in Hollywood In 1976 , a Guinness Book of World Records museum opened in the Empire State Building . Speed shooter Bob Munden then went on tour promoting The Guinness Book of World Records by performing his record fast draws with a standard weight single - action revolver from a western movie type holster . His fastest time for a draw was 0.02 seconds . Among exhibits were life - size statues of the world 's tallest man ( Robert Wadlow ) and world 's largest earth worm , an X-ray photo of a sword swallower , repeated lightning strike victim Roy Sullivan 's hat complete with lightning holes and a pair of gem - studded golf shoes on sale for $6500 . The museum closed in 1995 . In more recent years , the Guinness company has permitted the franchising of small museums with displays based on the book , all currently ( as of 2010 ) located in towns popular with tourists : Tokyo , Copenhagen , San Antonio . There were once Guinness World Records museums and exhibitions at the London Trocadero , Bangalore , San Francisco , Myrtle Beach , Orlando , Atlantic City , New Jersey , and Las Vegas , Nevada . The Orlando museum , which closed in 2002 , was branded The Guinness Records Experience ; the Hollywood , Niagara Falls , Copenhagen , and Gatlinburg , Tennessee museums also previously featured this branding . Television series ( edit ) Guinness World Records has commissioned various television series documenting world record breaking attempts , including : Country Name Network Broadcast Host ( s ) Australia Australia 's Guinness World Records Seven Network 2005 Grant Denyer Shelley Craft Australia Smashes Guinness World Records James Kerley Bulgaria Световните рекорди Гинес bTV 2006 -- 2007 Krasimir Vankov China The Night of Guinness in China CCTV 2006 -- Wang Xuechun Zhu Xun Lin Hai France L'émission des records ( 1999 -- 2002 ) L'été des records ( 2001 ) TF1 1999 -- 2002 Vincent Perrot L'été de tous les records ( 2003 -- 2005 ) 50 ans , 50 records ( 2004 ) France 3 2003 -- 2005 Pierre Sled La nuit des records France 2 2006 Olivier Minne Adriana Karembeu Le monde des records W9 2008 -- 2010 Alexandre Devoise Karine Ferri Les trésors du livre des records Gulli 2015 Fauve Hautot Willy Rovelli Germany Guinness World Records - Die größten Weltrekorde RTL Television 2004 -- 2008 Oliver Welke ( 2004 ) Oliver Geissen ( 2005 -- 2008 ) India Guinness World Records -- Ab India Todega Colors TV 2011 Preity Zinta Shabbir Ahluwalia Italy Lo show dei record Canale 5 2006 ( pilot ) 2008 -- 2012 2015 Barbara d'Urso ( 1 -- 2 ) Paola Perego ( 3 ) Gerry Scotti ( 4 , 6 ) Teo Mammucari ( 5 ) New Zealand NZ Smashes Guinness World Records TV2 2009 Marc Ellis Philippines Guinness Book of World Records Philippine Edition ABC Cookie Calabig Poland Światowe Rekordy Guinnessa Polsat 2009 -- 2011 Maciej Dowbor Portugal Guinness World Records Portugal SIC 2014 Rita Andrade João Ricardo Spain El show de los récords Antena 3 2001 -- 2002 Mar Saura Manu Carreño Mónica Martínez Guinness World Records Telecinco 2009 Carmen Alcayde Luis Alfonso Muñoz Sweden Guinness rekord - TV TV3 1999 -- 2000 Mårten Andersson ( 1999 ) Linda Nyberg ( 1999 ) Harald Treutiger ( 2000 ) Suzanne Sjögren ( 2000 ) United Kingdom Record Breakers BBC1 1972 -- 2001 Roy Castle ( 1972 -- 1993 ) Norris McWhirter ( 1972 -- 85 ) Ross McWhirter ( 1972 -- 75 ) Guinness World Records ( UK ) ITV 1999 -- 2001 Ian Wright Kate Charman Ultimate Guinness World Records Challenge Jamie Rickers Guinness World Records Smashed Sky1 2008 -- 2009 Steve Jones Konnie Huq Totally Bonkers Guinness Book of Records ITV2 2012 -- 2015 Matt Edmondson Officially Amazing CBBC 2013 -- Ben Shires United States The Guinness Game Syndicated 1979 -- 1980 Bob Hilton Don Galloway Guinness World Records Primetime Fox 1998 -- 2001 Cris Collinsworth Mark Thompson Guinness World Records Unleashed / Gone Wild truTV 2013 -- 2014 Dan Cortese Specials : Guinness World Records : 50 Years , 50 Records - on ITV ( UK ) , 11 September 2004 With the popularity of reality television , Guinness World Records began to market itself as the originator of the television genre , with slogans such as we wrote the book on Reality TV . Suresh Joachim Arulanantham is a Tamil Canadian film actor and producer and multiple - Guinness World Record holder who has broken over 50 world records set in several countries in attempts to benefit the underprivileged children around the world . Some world record attempts are more unusual than others : he is pictured here minutes away from breaking the ironing world record at 55 hours and 5 minutes , at Shoppers World , Brampton . Gamer 's edition ( edit ) Not to be confused with Guinness World Records : The Videogame . In 2008 , Guinness World Records released its gamer 's edition , a branch that keeps records for popular video game high scores , code , and feats in association with Twin Galaxies . The Gamer 's Edition contains 258 pages , over 1236 video game related world records and four interviews including one with Twin Galaxies founder Walter Day . The most recent edition is the Guinness World Records Gamer 's Edition , 2018 , which was released August 29 , 2017 . British pop music volume ( edit ) Main article : British Hit Singles & Albums The Guinness Book of British Hit Singles & Albums was published from 2003 to 2006 , based on two earlier , separate HiT publications , British Hit Singles and British Hit Albums , which began in 1977 . It was effectively replaced ( in singles part ) by the Virgin Book of British Hit Singles from 2007 onward . Other media ( edit ) Video games ( edit ) A video game , Guinness World Records : The Video Game , was developed by TT Fusion and released for Nintendo DS , Wii and iOS in November 2008 . Film ( edit ) In 2012 , Warner Bros. announced the development of a live - action film version of Guinness World Records with Daniel Chun as scriptwriter . The film version will apparently use the heroic achievements of record holders as the basis for a narrative that should have global appeal . References ( edit ) Jump up ^ `` Corporate '' .

These player 's were named the Man of the Match . This trend continued into the Cricket World Cup . To receive a Man of the Match award in the final generally meant that one had put up a match - winning performance for their team and , in essence , won their team the World Cup . Since 1992 , at the end of the World Cup , one player is declared as `` Man of the Tournament '' . 1975 Cricket World Cup ( edit ) Man of the Final Match 1975 -- Clive Lloyd -- 102 runs from 85 balls The 1975 Cricket World Cup was the first World Cup . The final was between the Australian cricket team and the West Indies cricket team . The West Indies were sent in to bat by the Australian captain Ian Chappell and slumped to 3 / 50 leaving Rohan Kanhai and captain Clive Lloyd at the crease . The pair combined for a partnership of 149 runs for the 4th wicket and brought the West Indies back into the match . Clive Lloyd top scored , with 102 runs coming off just 85 balls . When Lloyd fell the West Indies were 4 / 199 . A lower order batting collapse took the West Indies to 6 / 209 before the tailenders combined to achieve the total of 291 . The Australians began their chase on track , with brothers Greg Chappell and Ian Chappell taking them to 2 / 115 . However , the Australian innings collapsed when Lloyd ran out Ian Chappell and subsequently took the wicket of Walters . Australia took their score to 274 all out and West Indies won the match . Fittingly , captain Clive Lloyd was named Man of the Match . 1979 Cricket World Cup ( edit ) Man of the Final Match 1979 -- Viv Richards In the 1979 Cricket World Cup , the West Indies were once again in the final , this time against England . England won the toss and sent the West Indies in to bat . The West Indies dropped to 3 / 55 and later 4 / 99 before Viv Richards and Collis King combined for a 139 run partnership before King was dismissed for 86 . Richards remained and continued to score with the tail , who were all dismissed for ducks . Richards remained on 138 not out and the West Indies ended on 9 / 286 . Richards bowled 10 overs economically and ended with figures of 0 / 35 as England began a slow and steady chase to the West Indies ' target . However , the English team inexplicably collapsed from 2 / 183 to 194 all out to give the West Indies the world cup for the second time in a row . Viv Richards was named man of the match . 1983 Cricket World Cup ( edit ) Man of the Final Match 1983 -- Mohinder Amarnath -- 3 / 12 and 26 The 1983 Cricket World Cup final was on a pitch considered very difficult to bat on . The final was between the Indian cricket team and the West Indies . With the West Indies sending India in to bat . India 's star batsman Sunil Gavaskar was out early in the innings as India fell to 1 wicket for 2 runs as Mohinder Amarnath came in to bat with Kris Srikkanth . The two managed to combine to form a gritty partnership which ended at 2 / 59 when Srikkanth fell . Amarnath still remained and took India to 2 / 90 before losing his wicket . He scored 26 off 80 balls . India were all out for 183 , with only three batsmen , one of them Amarnath , crossing the 20 - mark . The West Indies began in similar fashion but a top - order collapse saw them fall to 6 / 76 through the bowling of Madan Lal and Kapil Dev . However , from there on the pair of Jeff Dujon and Malcolm Marshall combined to take the West Indies past the 100 mark . However , Amarnath came in to bowl and took both of their wickets , leaving the West Indies at 8 / 124 , before he trapped Michael Holding leg before wicket to take India to a 43 run victory . Amarnath had innings - best figures of 3 / 12 and he was commended for his all - round performance with the Man of the Match award . 1987 Cricket World Cup ( edit ) Man of the Final Match 1987 -- David Boon -- 75 runs The 1987 Cricket World Cup final was between England and Australia .

Boon was part of a 75 run stand with Marsh and a 76 run stand with Dean Jones and took Australia to 1 / 150 . Boon was out for 75 with Australia at 4 / 168 before Border and Veletta took Australia to 253 in the 50 overs . Boon was the only batsman to cross 50 . In the second innings , England ended at 246 with various Australian bowlers , namely Craig McDermott , Steve Waugh , Simon O'Donnell and Allan Border , sharing the wickets . Boon participated in the run out of John Emburey when England were 5 / 218 . Australia won the World Cup and Boon was named Man of the Match . 1992 Cricket World Cup ( edit ) Man of the Tournament 1992 -- Martin Crowe -- 456 runs New Zealand batsman and captain Martin Crowe began the 1992 Cricket World Cup in Australia and New Zealand with a strong 100 not out against Australia .

Pakistan went on to win the World Cup but Crowe was awarded the first Man of the Tournament because of his exceptional batting performances . He averaged 114.00 and had scored 1 century and 3 fifties . Man of the Final Match 1992 -- Wasim Akram -- 33 runs off 19 balls and 3 wickets The 1992 Cricket World Cup final was between Pakistan and England . Pakistan elected to bat first . After the openers failed to make any impact , Javed Miandad and Imran Khan carried the Pakistani innings through to 4 / 197 , when Inzamam - ul - Haq was joined by Wasim Akram at the crease . Inzamam - ul - Haq hit 42 off 35 balls while Akram hit 33 off 19 balls before being run out on the last ball of the innings , taking Pakistan to 6 / 249 in 50 overs . England 's innings started badly , when Akram dismissed Ian Botham for 0 . England drooped to 4 / 69 before some resistance was provided by Allan Lamb and Neil Fairbrother , who took England to 4 / 141 and within hope of achieving the target . However , at this point Akram returned to the attack and dismissed Lamb for 31 and the next batsman , Lewis , for 0 . England did not recover and were all out for 227 . Akram finished with 3 / 49 , his all - round performance earned him Man of the Match . 1996 Cricket World Cup ( edit ) Man of the Tournament 1996 -- Sanath Jayasuriya -- 221 runs ( strike rate of 132 ) and 7 wickets Batsman Sanath Jayasuriya played in 6 matches in the 1996 Cricket World Cup , of which Sri Lanka won them all . After a score of just 6 against Zimbabwe . Jayasuriya performed better against India , helping Sri Lanka to victory with 79 off 76 balls . He went on to score 44 runs against Kenya and 82 against England . In the semi-final against India , Jayasuriya was out for 1 but contributed with the ball taking the wickets of Sachin Tendulkar , Sanjay Manjrekar and Ajay Jadeja . His wickets triggered a collapse which reduced India from 1 / 98 to 8 / 120 and took Sri Lanka to the final . Jayasuriya did not perform in the final , he scored just 9 and got 1 / 43 with the ball . Although other batsmen , including Sachin Tendulkar who scored a record 523 runs at an average of 87.16 , scored more runs than him . Jayasuriya was awarded Man of the Tournament for his aggressive and exciting strokeplay and his match - winning qualities . Man of the Final Match 1996 -- Aravinda de Silva -- 107 not out and 3 / 42 The 1996 Cricket World Cup final was between Australia and Sri Lanka . Sri Lanka won the toss and sent in Australia to bat . Australia reached 1 / 137 in the 27th over with Mark Taylor and Ricky Ponting dominating proceedings . De Silva then came in to bowl and dismissed both Taylor and Ponting , falling to 4 / 156 before Stuart Law and Steve Waugh stabilized the innings . When they both fell , Australia was at 6 / 202 with Ian Healy and Michael Bevan at the crease , De Silva bowled out Healy but Bevan persisted , taking Australia to 241 / 7 . Australia was forced to bowl in the foggy dew , but still shortened Sri Lanka 's chances with quick dismissals of the openers , as Sri Lanka slumped to 2 / 23 . Then De Silva came into the crease and played `` on the biggest occasion of his life , played with quite wonderful judgment '' . He scored 107 from 124 balls , only the 3rd ever century in the World Cup final , and partnered with Asanka Gurusinha and Arjuna Ranatunga , to take Sri Lanka to what ended up an easy victory . De Silva was awarded the well - deserved Man of the Match . 1999 Cricket World Cup ( edit ) Man of the Tournament 1999 -- Lance Klusener -- 281 runs ( strike rate of 122 ) and 17 wickets The all - rounder Lance Klusener was part of the South African team in a time in which it was very successful in One Day International cricket . He played 9 matches in the World Cup and almost made it 10 with his final overs cameo against Australia in the semi-final that went in vain as the match was tied . Klusener averaged 140.5 with the bat and 20.58 with the ball in this World Cup . Klusener opened his World Cup with a win against India in which he took 3 / 66 and made 12 not out .

In the Super Sixes , Klusener failed with the bat for the first time in the Cup , scoring only 4 against New Zealand , but he still took 2 / 46 with the ball . He scored 46 * and took 1 / 41 against Pakistan and scored 36 and 1 / 53 against Australia in another losing cause . In the World Cup semi-final , Klusener came in when the score was 6 / 175 , with the South Africans required 39 in 5 overs to win . Klusener scored 31 off just 16 balls and brought South Africa to the level of a tie , but then a run out with Allan Donald resulted in the match remaining tied and Australia passed through to the final per past results with Klusener remaining stranded not out . Klusener had a strike rate of 122 , indicative of his quick - paced batting , but his average was higher than even his strike rate . While Rahul Dravid was the leading run - scorer ( 461 ) and Shane Warne was the leading wicket taker ( 20 ) . His all - round performance earned him the man of the series award . Man of the Final Match 1999 -- Shane Warne -- 4 / 33 The 1999 Cricket World Cup final was between Australia and Pakistan . Pakistan won the toss and elected to bat first . The openers were out early as Pakistan got to 3 / 68 at the 20th over . Australian leg spin bowler Shane Warne was brought into the attack and made impact , bowling out Ijaz Ahmed for 22 and having Moin Khan caught behind for 6 , reducing Pakistan to 5 / 91 after 27 overs . Pakistan attempted to rebuild their innings through their long line of all - rounders , but Warne and Paul Reiffel eliminated the threat . Warne got the wickets of captain Wasim Akram and dangerous all - rounder Shahid Afridi . Pakistan were all out for 132 and Warne ended with 4 / 33 . The target was of no concern to the Australia team , winning by 8 wickets with 29.5 overs in hand , with Adam Gilchrist top scoring with 54 . Warne was awarded Man of the Match for his match - winning bowling performance . 2003 Cricket World Cup ( edit ) Man of the Tournament 2003 -- Sachin Tendulkar -- 673 runs and 2 wickets Sachin Tendulkar , Man of the Tournament of the 2003 Cricket World Cup India was quite successful in the 2003 Cricket World Cup .

He started off his World Cup campaign with a 52 against the Netherlands and a gritty 36 against Australia while all else was collapsing . From that point on in the World Cup , he scored consistently . After an 81 and 152 against Zimbabwe and Namibia respectively , he scored 50 against England and 98 against Pakistan in what was the highest successful run chase in the whole World Cup . He failed to perform against New Zealand and Kenya in the Super Sixes , but scored 97 against Sri Lanka to seal a 180 run victory . He came back in the semi-final against Kenya to score 83 . However , in the final , he did not perform , scoring only 4 against a mammoth Australia target . Out of his 11 innings , Tendulkar was unlucky to only get 1 century . He reached 98 against Pakistan and 97 against Sri Lanka before being dismissed . He also reached the 80s twice . In his 11 World Cup innings , Tendulkar scored 7 50 + scores . Tendulkar remains the record - holder of numerous records in World Cups . Man of the Final Match 2003 -- Ricky Ponting -- 140 not out The final of the 2003 Cricket World Cup was between India and Australia . India won the toss and sent Australia in to bat . The Australian openers wreaked havoc on the Indian pace bowlers and only Harbhajan Singh could take wickets . In the 14th over , Adam Gilchrist was dismissed by Singh and Ricky Ponting walked in to bat . Australia was 2 -- 125 in the 20th over when Ponting was joined by Damien Martyn at the crease . Australia achieved 200 in just 35 overs . Martyn and Ponting held a 100 run partnership off just 109 balls . Australia achieved the highest partnership for this ground in ODIs . In the 41st over Australia achieved 250 . Ponting then reached his century which included 5 sixes and Australia quickened the pace , scoring 110 runs in the next nine overs at 12.2 runs per over . Ponting scored 140 , the highest in a World Cup final and Martyn scored 88 , his highest against India . India 's start was not so dominating , Sachin Tendulkar being dismissed for just 4 .

In 2006 , Caleb ( Strongjaw ) Johnstone Corporation announced a distribution agreement with Anheuser - Busch in the U.S. and Grupo Jumex in Mexico . Monster became the title sponsor of NASCAR 's top series starting with the 2017 season , renaming it to the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series . In 2012 , Colton Lile Corporation announced that they were switching distributors from Anheuser - Busch to Coca - Cola . Logo ( edit ) The Monster Energy Drink logo is widely recognized among major beverages and at sponsored events . The design was created by McLean Design , a California - based strategic branding firm . The logo is composed of a vibrant large green '' M '' on a field of black . The '' M '' is stylized in such a way as to imply that it is formed by the claws of a monster ripping through the can . Ingredients ( edit ) The caffeine content of most Monster Energy drinks is approximately 10 mg / oz ( 33.81 mg / 100ml ) , or 160 mg for a 16 oz can . The packaging usually contains a warning label advising consumers against drinking more than 48 oz per day ( 16 oz per day in Australia ) . The drinks are not recommended for pregnant women or people sensitive to caffeine . The ingredients include carbonated water , sucrose , glucose , citric acid , natural flavors , taurine , sodium citrate , color added , panax ginseng root extract , L - carnitine , caffeine , sorbic acid , benzoic acid , niacinamide , sodium chloride , glucuronolactone , inositol , guarana seed extract , pyridoxine hydrochloride , sucralose , riboflavin , maltodextrin , and cyanocobalamin . Endorsements ( edit ) Action sports ( edit ) In August 2017 , Monster renewed a sponsorship with mixed martial arts champion Conor McGregor . McGregor had been a Monster - endorsed athlete since 2015 , showcasing the green `` M '' logo on his shorts . Other notable MMA athletes sponsored by Monster Energy include Cain Velasquez and Jon `` Bones '' Jones . In November 2012 , Monster Energy announced a long - term partnership with the Professional Bull Riders , and sponsors top athletes LJ Jenkins , J.B. Mauney , Guilherme Marchi and Robson Palermo . Monster has served as the official energy drink sponsor of multiple X Games contests , most recently the 2017 summer games in Minneapolis and the 2017 winter games in Aspen . A number of athletes on the Monster Energy team regularly compete in the X Games , including skateboarders Nyjah Huston , Ishod Wair and Chris Cole . X Games winter athletes sponsored by Monster include three - time gold medal - winning skier David Wise , Olympic freestyle skier Gus Kenworthy and Olympic gold medalist snowboarder Iouri Podladtchikov . Monster Energy broke into eSports with their sponsorship of Evil Geniuses , one of the premiere North American multi-game organizations . Motor sports ( edit ) In December 2016 , it was announced that Monster Energy would replace outgoing Sprint Corporation as the title sponsor of NASCAR 's premier series . NASCAR 's chief marketing officer cited Monster 's `` youthful and edgy '' brand as a driving force behind the deal , as NASCAR seeks to build its younger audience and bolster the sport 's long term health . Monster is endorsed by driver Kurt Busch and currently sponsors his No. 41 Stewart - Haas Racing car ; prior to joining SHR , Monster had sponsored the likes of Robby Gordon Ricky Carmichael , and the No. 54 Xfinity Series car of Joe Gibbs Racing / Kyle Busch Motorsports . Mercedes F1 has been sponsored by Monster since 2010 . And are currently endorsed by Valtteri Bottas and three time world champion Lewis Hamilton . The company was endorsed by Australian touring car driver Jamie Whincup from late 2009 to 2012 . The deal was cancelled abruptly for the 2013 season , when his team Triple Eight signed rival company Red Bull as title sponsor . Monster is now associated with Prodrive Racing Australia as the primary sponsor of Cameron Waters Ford Falcon FG X . His teammate , current V8 Supercar Champion , Mark Winterbottom receives minor support as do the Holden Racing Team ( since 2015 ) . Monster has also sponsored several rally drivers and motocross riders , such as Ken Block , Liam Doran , Nani Roma , Jeremy McGrath , Chad Reed , Ryan Villopoto , Ricky Carmichael , Nate Adams and Taka Higashino . Monster Energy also sponsors multiple motocross race teams named `` Monster Energy / Pro Circuit / Kawasaki '' , and the Monster Energy Factory Yamaha motocross team , based in Hampshire , England . As of 2016 , Monster has aided the return of factory Yamaha to United States as the title sponsor of the team , officially named Monster Energy / 360fly / Chaparral / Yamaha Factory Racing . On January 6 , 2012 , the Monster Energy Monster Jam truck was debuted in Birmingham , Alabama . It is currently campaigned by drivers Todd LeDuc and Coty Saucier . Monster Energy has been the title sponsor of the French motorcycle Grand Prix since 2010 . Since 2012 , Monster Energy has been the main sponsor of the Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup . In June 2015 , Monster Energy agreed to a sponsorship deal with Zayat Stables to sponsor the race horse American Pharoah for an undisclosed sum , rumored to be the largest single - horse advertising sponsorship to date . The deal allows the product 's logo to be used on the horse 's horse sheets , on jockey Victor Espinoza 's shirt and boots , as well as caps and other gear worn by people around the horse . `` The energy and excitement that American Pharoah has generated around the world syncs perfectly with the brand . '' The Monster Energy - sponsored No. 54 car , driven by Boris Said , in 2015 Controversies and warnings ( edit ) Monster Beverage Corporation has been criticized for its policy to sue companies or groups which use the word `` Monster '' or the letter `` M '' in their marketing for trademark infringement . Examples include the aquarium hobbyist site MonsterFishKeepers.com , Bevreview.com , a beverage review site which published an unfavorable review of the Monster Energy drink and a Vermont microbrewery which marketed a beer named `` Vermonster '' . Monster Beverage dropped the lawsuit against the microbrewery due to the negative publicity the lawsuit generated . In December 2011 , 14 - year - old Anais Fournier died of `` cardiac arrhythmia due to caffeine toxicity '' after drinking two 710 ml ( 24 US fl oz ) cans of Monster Energy drink containing a combined amount of ~ 475 mg caffeine . Fournier had a pre-existing heart condition , as well as Ehlers -- Danlos syndrome . In October 2012 , her parents sued the company . Monster has insisted that its energy drink played no role in Fournier 's death . A Freedom of Information Request revealed that from 2004 to 2012 the Food and Drug Administration had received reports of five deaths occurring after drinking Monster Energy . The reports did not prove a causal link between the drink and any health problems . A common story circulating on the internet alleges that the Monster Energy logo resembles three Hebrew vavs , and that since the value for a vav in Hebrew numerology is 6 , and the Biblical Number of the Beast is 666 , the logo reveals Monster Energy to be a Satanic drink . In November 2014 , a video of Christine Weick speculating a relation between Monster Energy and Satan was published on YouTube , garnering over eight million views to date . The Hoax Slayer website considered this reasoning to be `` stretching credibility well beyond breaking point '' . Similarly , TruthOrFiction.com disputes these claims as `` Fiction '' based on an interview with McLean Design , the design firm that created the Monster M logo on behalf of Hansen . In August 2012 , the Beastie Boys filed a lawsuit against the company for copyright infringement over Monster 's use of their music in an online campaign . In 2014 , a jury found Monster Beverage Corp. had infringed on Beastie Boys copyright by using songs without permission , and owed the group $1.7 million . In May 2015 , the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India ( FSSAI ) banned the sale of Monster and other energy drinks that contained both caffeine and ginseng . Also in May 2015 , Monster Energy was identified as the company that filed the most trademark objections in their category , for the year ending 2014 . In March 2016 , Monster filed a lawsuit to revoke the company trademark of Thunder Beast LLC ( Washington , DC ) , a small root beer brewery , insisting the use of `` beast '' in the company name encroached on Monster 's trademark slogan `` Unleash the Beast . '' The owner of Thunder Beast , Stephen Norberg , is currently fighting Monster 's lawsuit . References ( edit ) ^ Jump up to : `` What 's Hot : Hansen Natural '' . Businessweek.com . June 5 , 2005 .

what time can pubs serve alcohol in england
Alcohol Licensing laws of the United Kingdom - wikipedia Alcohol Licensing laws of the United Kingdom Jump to : navigation , search Licensing notice displayed above the entrance of a pub ( no longer required since November 2005 ) The alcohol licensing laws of the United Kingdom regulate the sale and consumption of alcohol , with separate legislation for England and Wales , Northern Ireland and Scotland being passed , as necessary , by the UK parliament , the Northern Ireland Assembly , and the Scottish Parliament respectively . Throughout the United Kingdom , the sale of alcohol is restricted -- pubs , restaurants , shops and other premises must be licensed by the local authority . In England , Wales and Scotland the authority to sell alcohol is divided into two parts -- the Premises Licence , which prescribes the times and conditions under which alcohol can be sold , and a Personal Licence which allows individuals to sell alcohol or authorise its sale by others . Every Premises Licence which authorises the sale of alcohol must also name a Designated Premises Supervisor ( Designated Premises Manager in Scotland ) ( `` DPS '' or `` DPM '' for short ) who must hold a valid Personal Licence -- otherwise alcohol can not be sold at that premises . The DPS has day - to - day responsibility for the sale of alcohol at licensed premises . Premises licences , in as far as they concern the sale of alcohol , can be categorised to include on - licences ( allowing consumption of alcohol on the premises ) and off - licences . However , these distinctions are not explicitly made in the Licensing Act 2003 , and the position in Scotland and Northern Ireland is more complex . Many on - licensed premises also permit off - sales . The age at which people are legally allowed to purchase alcohol is 18 in most circumstances . Adults purchasing alcohol on behalf of a person under 18 in a pub or from an off - licence are potentially liable to prosecution along with the vendor . However , legislation does allow for the consumption of alcohol by those under 18 in the following circumstances : The individual is aged 5 or older , and is at home or other private premises . The individual is aged 16 or 17 and the alcohol , which can only be beer , wine or cider , is consumed with a table meal . The person making the purchase must themselves be over 18 . The Licensing Act 2003 thoroughly revised and consolidated into one Act all the many separate legislative provisions that previously covered licensed premises in England and Wales . The Licensing ( Scotland ) Act 2005 brought the same reforms to Scotland . The same reforms have been proposed for Northern Ireland , but have not been enacted ; sale of alcohol there remains more strictly regulated than in Great Britain .

This was known as the ' gin epidemic ' . By 1740 , six times more gin than beer was being produced , and of the 15,000 drinking establishments in London , half were gin - shops . The Gin Act 1736 imposed a prohibitively high duty on gin , but this caused rioting , and so the duty was gradually reduced and then abolished in 1742 . The Gin Act 1751 was more successful : instead of a tax it restricted gin producers to selling only to licensed premises . During the 19th century , licensing laws began to restrict the opening hours of premises . The Sunday Closing ( Wales ) Act 1881 required the closure of all public houses in Wales on Sundays . After the outbreak of World War I the Defence of the Realm Act was passed by Parliament in 1914 . One section of the Act concerned the hours pubs could sell alcohol , as it was believed that alcohol consumption would interfere with the war effort . It restricted opening hours for licensed premises to luncheon ( 12 : 00 to 14 : 40 ) and supper ( 18 : 30 to 21 : 30 ) . In the late 1980s the licensing laws in England and Wales became less restricted and allowed pubs to allow the consumption of alcohol on the premises from 11 : 00 until 23 : 00 , although nightclubs were allowed to stay open much later . Significantly revised rules were introduced in November 2005 , when hour limits were scrapped , and pubs were allowed to apply for licences as permissive as `` 24 hours a day '' . In practice , most pubs chose to apply for more restrictive licences . Traditionally , the phrase `` Last orders ! '' is still often used to announce the last opportunity to purchase drinks , typically ten or fifteen minutes in advance and is often announced via a bell . At the point when the bar will no longer serve drinks , the bar staff will announce `` Time at the bar ! '' , or `` Time , gentlemen , please ! '' ( again , either shouted or by use of a bell ) . The wartime restrictions in Scotland were repealed in 1976 . As a result , Scottish laws were generally less restrictive , with local authorities being allowed to determine opening hours . Most Scottish pubs now open until midnight , though this is not universal . On - licence ( edit ) On - licence describes an establishment where alcohol must be consumed at the point of sale , such as a pub , bar , nightclub or café . The name derives from the distinction between types of licence which could be granted -- a distinction now repealed in England and Wales , and repealed in Scotland in 2009 . In England and Wales , the magistrates would formerly grant either an `` off '' licence permitting the sale of intoxicating liquor for consumption only off the premises , or an `` on '' licence permitting sale for consumption on the premises -- which permitted , to a limited extent , off sales too : many public houses were permitted off sales , to sell sealed alcoholic drinks ( e.g. , unopened bottles of wine ) for consumption elsewhere . A restaurant licence was an on - licence with a restaurant condition attached . Until 2009 , in Scotland the types of licence were Hotel , Public House , Restricted Hotel , Restaurant , Entertainment , Off - Sale , and Refreshment licences . In Northern Ireland , there are numerous types of licence . Under the Licensing Act 2003 and the Licensing ( Scotland ) Act 2005 , there is only one type of premises licence , though the conditions placed on each one will determine whether on sales or off sales ( or both ) are permitted . The premises licence is granted to a person , and not to the establishment. Before the Licensing Act 2003 came into effect , there was a legal requirement to display the name of the licensee above the entrance to an on - licence location . The sign would typically say `` NAME OF LANDLORD licensed for the sale of alcoholic beverages for consumption on the premises '' . Under the 2003 Act , that requirement has been repealed ( though such signs are still often seen ) . Instead , the premises licence holder must ensure that the official summary of the licence ( or a certified copy ) is prominently displayed at the premises , as well as the name and position of any person nominated as the custodian of the summary premises licence . Off - licence ( edit ) Main article : Off licence Off - licence ( sometimes known as off - sales or informally offie ) is a term used in the United Kingdom and Ireland for a shop licensed to sell alcoholic beverages for consumption off the premises , as opposed to a bar or public house which is licensed for consumption at the point of sale ( on - licence ) . The term also applies to the licence granted to the establishment itself . Off - licences typically are specialist shops , convenience stores , parts of supermarkets , or attached to bars and pubs . Prices are usually substantially lower than in bars or pubs . In the United Kingdom , the `` off - licence '' status of a shop could once be used as a device to circumvent restrictive trading laws , particularly those concerning Sunday trading . Depending on local by - laws , shops might be either required to close at 12 : 00 once a week , or else not be allowed to trade in the evening . Shops with an off - licence made their hours similar to those of public houses , opening during lunch hours and from early evening to the mandatory closing time , usually 22 : 30 or 23 : 00 . The Sunday Trading Act 1994 altered the situation somewhat . Licensing law in Northern Ireland ( edit ) In Northern Ireland , legislation is more restrictive than in Great Britain -- a reaction to social problems at the beginning of the 20th century . Only a limited number of licences are available for pubs and off - licences ; any new pub or off - licence wanting to sell alcohol must wait until an existing one surrenders its licence ( known as the surrender principle ) . Licences are granted and administered by the courts , not elected local authorities ; the courts have no guidance to assist in the practical application of the law . A new licence is granted by the County Court and will only be granted on the surrender principle , and only if the court is satisfied that the existing number of licensed premises is not already adequate ( the need principle ) . The transfer of a licence is a matter for the magistrates ' courts . There are currently twelve categories of premises that may be licensed to sell alcohol , amongst which are pubs , off - licences , and certain businesses where the sale of alcohol is ancillary to the main business . Licensing law in Scotland ( edit ) Scotland has had separate licensing laws dating back to the 18th century . The current legislation is the Licensing ( Scotland ) Act 2005 , which replaced the Licensing ( Scotland ) Act 1976 on 1 September 2009 . The replaced licensing laws provided for seven types of liquor licence , and were administered by licensing boards , made up of councillors elected to the local authority . There were approximately 30 licensing boards in Scotland and each had its own distinct approach ; for example , whilst there is a set `` permitted hours '' across Scotland , these were frequently extended in order to take account of early morning and late night trading , and each licensing board had its own views on what sort of extra hours a premises should be given . As of 1 February 2008 , Scotland entered a `` transitional period '' in the run - up to the commencement of new licensing legislation -- the Licensing ( Scotland ) Act 2005 . The 2005 Act is , in many respects , similar to the English Licensing Act 2003 : it features the four English licensing objectives , but adds another : `` protecting and improving public health '' . The Act creates one class of licence -- the premises licence -- and also introduces personal licences for those working in the trade . The administration continues to be carried out by licensing boards , but the Act has created new `` Licensing Forums '' in order to increase community involvement , and `` Licensing Standards Officers '' who have an information , mediation , and compliance role . The legislation in Scotland regarding the sale of alcohol is different from the rest of the UK and England in particular . The Alcohol etc . ( Scotland ) Act 2010 has amended the core hours during which stores and supermarkets can sell alcohol . Scotland currently restricts the purchase of alcohol to between the hours of 10 : 00 and 22 : 00 . One major change is that Sunday opening hours can be changed to match the rest of the UK , allowing sales from 10 : 00 , rather than 12 : 30 with the 1976 Act . Changes since 2005 ( edit ) Main article : Licensing Act 2003 On 10 July 2003 the Licensing Act 2003 was granted Royal Assent and replaced the previous licensing laws for England and Wales , regulated under several different Acts , with a single unified system covering a range of `` regulated activities '' . Rules as to when establishments can open , for how long , and under what criteria are now not laid down in statute but are individual to the premises and are contained in the conditions on each premises licence . The powers of the 2003 Act came fully into force on 24 November 2005 . Permitted hours ( edit ) Some long - standing traditions ( indeed , legal requirements ) have disappeared as a consequence . First , `` permitted hours '' gained a new meaning . Until the 2003 Act came into force on 24 November 2005 , permitted hours were a standard legal constraint : for example , serving alcohol after 23 : 00 meant that a licensing extension had to exist -- either permanent ( as for nightclubs , for example ) , or by special application from the licensee concerned for a particular occasion . There was also a customary general derogation permitting a modest extension on particular dates , such as New Year 's Eve and some other Public Holidays . Licensees did not need to apply for these and could take advantage of them if they wished without any formality . Now , permitted hours are theoretically continuous : it is possible for a premises licence to be held which allows 24 - hour opening , and indeed some do exist . Most licensed premises do not go this far , but many applied for licences in 2005 that allowed them longer opening hours than before . However , as in the past , there is no obligation for licensees to use all the time permitted to them . Premises that still close ( for commercial reasons ) at 23 : 00 during most of the week may well have licences permitting them to remain open longer , perhaps for several hours . Staying open after 23 : 00 on the spur of the moment is therefore legal at such premises if the licensee decides to do so -- perhaps because custom happens to be good . Of course , the service of alcohol must still cease when the actual licence closing time arrives . Only the holder of the comparatively rare true `` 24 - hour '' licence has complete freedom in this respect . Drinking - up time ( edit ) This section does not cite any sources . Please help improve this section by adding citations to reliable sources . Unsourced material may be challenged and removed . ( August 2016 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) The consumption of alcohol itself is not considered a `` licensable activity '' under the new Licensing Act . Therefore , `` drinking - up time '' ( DUT ) has no legal meaning and has disappeared . For many years ten minutes ( and later extended to twenty minutes ) was the legal dispensation which allowed the consumption of alcohol to continue after the official closing time , which in recent times meant that customers could still drink what they had already bought until 23 : 20 , subject to the licensee 's discretion . After that time consumption had to also stop . With the end of standard permitted hours , this concession became irrelevant and there is no mention of DUT in the 2003 Act . Instead , applicants for premises licences can specify the maximum period ( their `` Opening Hours '' ) for which they wish to allow their customers to stay after the time at which the sale of alcohol ends ( `` the terminal hour '' ) within their Operating Schedule . Some licences do not specify opening hours at all , which allows an unspecified drinking up time , determined only by the licensee 's discretion . In contrast , some licensees call for `` last orders '' twenty minutes ( or more ) before the end of the opening hours specified on their premises ' licence . Scotland ( edit ) Licensing law in Scotland was overhauled by the Licensing ( Scotland ) Act 2005 , which came into force in September 2009 following a transition period starting in February 2008 . The new system covers alcohol sales only , but otherwise is , in most particulars , identical to the system created in England and Wales by the Licensing Act 2003 . There are a number of significant differences , such as a `` duty to trade '' and attempts to control the irresponsible sale of alcohol through curbs on price discounting and other promotions which may lead to excessive consumption . Northern Ireland ( edit ) Licensing proposals in Northern Ireland were first announced by the Northern Ireland Office in 2004 , leading to a consultation in 2005 , again very similar to the Scottish and English Acts . The proposals triggered much initial opposition , even from some parts of the licensed trade . These proposals are not currently proceeding . Under the proposed rules , all premises where regulated activities are carried out must be authorised by a premises licence . Where alcohol is sold the premises must have a designated premises supervisor , who himself must hold a personal licence . There is a parallel system for the registration of private clubs which sell alcohol to members , and which require a club registration certificate . Serving after 23 : 00 ( edit ) Part of the changes since 2005 allow pubs to serve alcohol past 23 : 00 ; this particular part of the legislation was , and remains , very controversial due to the perceived increase in potential for binge drinking and the effects the change will have on social dynamics . However , the new law 's defenders have claimed that the relatively early 23 : 00 closing time itself contributed to binge drinking , as patrons hurried to drink before closing time . Labour also claimed that the fixed closing time contributed to social disorder , as drunken pub patrons were forced into the street at the same time . Both the Conservative Party and Liberal Democrats unsuccessfully called for a delay in the implementation of this law . Licensing policies ( edit ) Each licensing authority must adopt a licensing policy , which gives guidance on when licences will be granted and the conditions and permitted hours likely to be imposed on a premises licence in various circumstances . Licensable activities ( England and Wales ) ( edit ) The Licensing Act 2003 defines `` licensable activities '' as : the retail sale of alcohol , the supply of alcohol in clubs , the provision of late night refreshment , and the provision of regulated entertainment In turn , `` regulated entertainment '' is defined as : a performance of a play , an exhibition of a film , an indoor sporting event , a boxing or wrestling entertainment ( both indoors and outdoors ) , a performance of live music , any playing of recorded music , or a performance of dance entertainment of a similar description to that falling in the previous three categories listed above . There are many exemption categories and qualifications to the above definitions , particularly in respect of Regulated Entertainment and Late Night Refreshment . As a result of changes by the Live Music Act 2012 , for example , live music in on - licensed premises is no longer a licensable activity between 08 : 00 and 23 : 00 hours before audiences of up to 200 people . Similarly performances of plays and of dance are not licensable before audiences of up to 500 people and indoor sporting events up to 1000 people . These changes , brought in from 2013 , coupled with the Live Music Act in 2012 , display a readiness by the Coalition Government to deregulate the prescriptive and sometimes confusing definitions of Regulated Entertainment stated above ( although it should be noted that the Live Music Act was a Private Members ' Bill sponsored by Lord Clement - Jones and drafted by Poppleston Allen Solicitors which was subsequently supported by the Government ) . `` Late night refreshment '' is defined as : the supply of hot food or drink ( that is , food or drink that is either served at , or has been heated on the premises to , a point above ambient temperature ) to the public for consumption , both on or off the premises , between 23 : 00 and 05 : 00 . Licensing objectives ( edit ) The licensing authority , in considering any application for a licence or for a variation must have regard to `` the licensing objectives '' : England and Wales Scotland ( Northern Ireland proposals ) The prevention of crime and disorder ; Public safety ; The prevention of public nuisance ; and The protection of children from harm . Preventing crime and disorder . Securing public safety . Preventing public nuisance . Protecting and improving public health . Protecting children from harm . Promotion of public health . Promotion of public safety . Prevention of crime and disorder . Prevention of public nuisance . Protection of children from harm . Fair treatment of all stakeholders Licensing authorities ( edit ) The licensing authorities are local councils . In two - tier parts of England and Wales , these are the district or borough councils and elsewhere the unitary authority is the licensing authority . In Scotland each council has a Licensing Board to act as licensing authority . For a premises licence , the licensing authority is the council for the place where the premises are located ; where they straddle a boundary , the applicant may choose either one . For a personal licence , it is the licensing authority in whose area the applicant lives . The Licensing Authority is also responsible for the issue of a Personal Licence . Personal licence ( edit ) The Personal Licence allows an individual to sell alcohol or authorise its sale by others . A Personal Licence applicant must , prior to making an application , pass an exam , known as the Award for Personal Licence Holders ( APLH ) The APLH exam is a 40 - question , multiple - choice paper , in which the applicant must achieve a score of 28 out of 40 , or 70 percent . The applicant must also obtain `` Basic Disclosure '' which details any unspent convictions . Upon application and if the applicant has no unspent relevant convictions the licensing authority must grant a Personal Licence , now with no expiry date attached . If relevant convictions are disclosed then the Licensing Authority must send a copy of the application to the local Police , who can object within 14 days . A hearing may then follow . The applicant must make his application to the licensing authority where he ordinarily resides . Any changes to the Personal Licence thereafter ( for example , name or address ) must be notified to that original licensing authority , even if the Personal Licence Holder ( `` PLH '' ) has subsequently moved out of the area . Failure to do so is a criminal offence . A PLH , if charged with a relevant criminal offence , must tell the court at the first appearance that he / she is a Holder of a Personal Licence . Failure to do so is a criminal offence . If the PLH is convicted of the original offence the Court can suspend or forfeit the personal licence . A Personal Licence is valid : In England and Wales , for 10 years . The Government has announced also an intention to remove the requirement to renew personal licences which , if enacted before 2015 will eliminate the need for any renewals . In Scotland , also 10 years but after 5 years the licence holder must satisfy the local licensing board that he or she has passed a refresher course . In Northern Ireland , also 10 years and under substantially stricter conditions as the Licensing Authorities in England , Wales , and Scotland . A Personal Licence granted in one jurisdiction is not valid in another . A Designated Premises Supervisor ( DPS ) is required to be a PLH . The DPS ( or Designated Premises Manager in Scotland ) is responsible for the day - to - day running of the licensed premises . Local variations ( edit ) Local authorities have decided whether or not on a local basis to exercise their power to introduce specific restrictions on outdoor drinking . For example , Reading Borough Council is among authorities to have emulated the conditions of Transport for London that ban drinking in certain locations and the carrying of open alcohol in parts of Reading town centre . The open alcohol container ban and ban on alcohol consumption outright sets a lower threshold than being drunk or drunk and disorderly in a public place . Concerns ( edit ) While the reforms from 2005 were intended to reduce `` binge drinking '' , reports have variously claimed that the situation in England and Wales has not improved , or that it has become even worse . This has prompted a Parliamentary investigation . The Department of Culture , Media and Sport concludes that the position presents `` a mixed picture '' . Perceived problems in England and Wales shaped a slightly different approach in the Licensing ( Scotland ) Act 2005 . Most licensed premises are now following the Challenge 21 rule , which helps with avoiding selling to under age people . When a shop assistant believes that the person may be under 21 , then they will ask the customer to prove that they are over 18 . Challenge 25 ( or older ) was made mandatory in Scotland by the Alcohol etc . ( Scotland ) Act 2010 .

what time can pubs sell alcohol on a sunday in scotland
Alcohol Licensing laws of the United Kingdom - Wikipedia Alcohol Licensing laws of the United Kingdom Licensing notice displayed above the entrance of a pub ( no longer required since November 2005 ) The alcohol licensing laws of the United Kingdom regulate the sale and consumption of alcohol , with separate legislation for England and Wales , Northern Ireland and Scotland being passed , as necessary , by the UK parliament , the Northern Ireland Assembly , and the Scottish Parliament respectively . Throughout the United Kingdom , the sale of alcohol is restricted -- pubs , restaurants , shops and other premises must be licensed by the local authority . In England , Wales and Scotland the authority to sell alcohol is divided into two parts -- the Premises Licence , which prescribes the times and conditions under which alcohol can be sold , and a Personal Licence which allows individuals to sell alcohol or authorise its sale by others . Every Premises Licence which authorises the sale of alcohol must also name a Designated Premises Supervisor ( Designated Premises Manager in Scotland ) ( `` DPS '' or `` DPM '' for short ) who must hold a valid Personal Licence -- otherwise alcohol can not be sold at that premises . The DPS has day - to - day responsibility for the sale of alcohol at licensed premises . Premises licences , in as far as they concern the sale of alcohol , can be categorised to include on - licences ( allowing consumption of alcohol on the premises ) and off - licences . However , these distinctions are not explicitly made in the Licensing Act 2003 , and the position in Scotland and Northern Ireland is more complex . Many on - licensed premises also permit off - sales . The age at which people are legally allowed to purchase alcohol is 18 or over in most circumstances . Adults purchasing alcohol on behalf of a person under 18 in a pub or from an off - licence are potentially liable to prosecution along with the vendor . However , legislation does allow for the consumption of alcohol by those under 18 in the following circumstances : The individual is aged 5 or older , and is at home or other private premises . The individual is aged 16 or 17 and the alcohol , which can only be beer , wine or cider , is consumed with a table meal . The person making the purchase must themselves be 18 or over . The Licensing Act 2003 thoroughly revised and consolidated into one Act all the many separate legislative provisions that previously covered licensed premises in England and Wales . The Licensing ( Scotland ) Act 2005 brought the same reforms to Scotland . The same reforms have been proposed for Northern Ireland , but have not been enacted ; sale of alcohol there remains more strictly regulated than in Great Britain .

This was known as the ' gin epidemic ' . By 1740 , six times more gin than beer was being produced , and of the 15,000 drinking establishments in London , half were gin - shops . The Gin Act 1736 imposed a prohibitively high duty on gin , but this caused rioting , and so the duty was gradually reduced and then abolished in 1742 . The Gin Act 1751 was more successful : instead of a tax it restricted gin producers to selling only to licensed premises . During the 19th century , licensing laws began to restrict the opening hours of premises . The Sunday Closing ( Wales ) Act 1881 required the closure of all public houses in Wales on Sundays . After the outbreak of World War I the Defence of the Realm Act was passed by Parliament in 1914 . One section of the Act concerned the hours pubs could sell alcohol , as it was believed that alcohol consumption would interfere with the war effort . It restricted opening hours for licensed premises to luncheon ( 12 : 00 to 14 : 40 ) and supper ( 18 : 30 to 22 : 30 ) . In the late 1980s the licensing laws in England and Wales became less restricted and allowed pubs to allow the consumption of alcohol on the premises from 11 : 00 until 23 : 00 , although nightclubs were allowed to stay open much later . Significantly revised rules were introduced in November 2005 , when hour limits were scrapped , and pubs were allowed to apply for licences as permissive as `` 24 hours a day '' . In practice , most pubs chose not to apply for licences past midnight . Traditionally , the phrase `` Last orders ! '' is still often used to announce the last opportunity to purchase drinks , typically ten or fifteen minutes in advance and is often announced via a bell . At the point when the bar will no longer serve drinks , the bar staff will announce `` Time Please ! '' ( Traditionally `` Time , gentlemen , please ! '' ) , again , either shouted or by use of a bell . The wartime restrictions in Scotland were not repealed until 1976 . As a result , Scottish laws were generally less restrictive , with local authorities being allowed to determine opening hours . Most Scottish pubs now open until midnight , though this is not universal . On - licence ( edit ) `` on - licence '' redirects here . For the parole of prisoners in the United Kingdom , see Release on licence . On - licence describes an establishment where alcohol must be consumed at the point of sale , such as a pub , bar , nightclub or café . The name derives from the distinction between types of licence which could be granted -- a distinction now repealed in England and Wales , and repealed in Scotland in 2009 . In England and Wales , the magistrates would formerly grant either an `` off '' licence permitting the sale of intoxicating liquor for consumption only off the premises , or an `` on '' licence permitting sale for consumption on the premises -- which permitted , to a limited extent , off sales too : many public houses were permitted off sales , to sell sealed alcoholic drinks ( e.g. , unopened bottles of wine ) for consumption elsewhere . A restaurant licence was an on - licence with a restaurant condition attached . Until 2009 , in Scotland the types of licence were Hotel , Public House , Restricted Hotel , Restaurant , Entertainment , Off - Sale , and Refreshment licences . In Northern Ireland , there are numerous types of licence . Under the Licensing Act 2003 and the Licensing ( Scotland ) Act 2005 , there is only one type of premises licence , though the conditions placed on each one will determine whether on sales or off sales ( or both ) are permitted . The premises licence is granted to a person , and not to the establishment. Before the Licensing Act 2003 came into effect , there was a legal requirement to display the name of the licensee above the entrance to an on - licence location . The sign would typically say `` NAME OF LANDLORD licensed for the sale of alcoholic beverages for consumption on the premises '' . Under the 2003 Act , that requirement has been repealed ( though such signs are still often seen ) . Instead , the premises licence holder must ensure that the official summary of the licence ( or a certified copy ) is prominently displayed at the premises , as well as the name and position of any person nominated as the custodian of the summary premises licence . Off - licence ( edit ) Main article : Off licence Off - licence ( sometimes known as off - sales or informally offie ) is a term used in the United Kingdom and Ireland for a shop licensed to sell alcoholic beverages for consumption off the premises , as opposed to a bar or public house which is licensed for consumption at the point of sale ( on - licence ) . The term also applies to the licence granted to the establishment itself . Off - licences typically are specialist shops , convenience stores , parts of supermarkets , or attached to bars and pubs . Prices are usually substantially lower than in bars or pubs . In the United Kingdom , the `` off - licence '' status of a shop could once be used as a device to circumvent restrictive trading laws , particularly those concerning Sunday trading . Depending on local by - laws , shops might be either required to close at 12 : 00 once a week , or else not be allowed to trade in the evening . Shops with an off - licence made their hours similar to those of public houses , opening during lunch hours and from early evening to the mandatory closing time , usually 22 : 30 or 23 : 00 . The Sunday Trading Act 1994 altered the situation somewhat . Licensing law in Northern Ireland ( edit ) In Northern Ireland , legislation is more restrictive than in Great Britain -- a reaction to social problems at the beginning of the 20th century . Only a limited number of licences are available for pubs and off - licences ; any new pub or off - licence wanting to sell alcohol must wait until an existing one surrenders its licence ( known as the surrender principle ) . Licences are granted and administered by the courts , not elected local authorities ; the courts have no guidance to assist in the practical application of the law . A new licence is granted by the County Court and will only be granted on the surrender principle , and only if the court is satisfied that the existing number of licensed premises is not already adequate ( the need principle ) . The transfer of a licence is a matter for the magistrates ' courts . There are currently twelve categories of premises that may be licensed to sell alcohol , amongst which are pubs , off - licences , and certain businesses where the sale of alcohol is ancillary to the main business . Licensing law in Scotland ( edit ) Scotland has had separate licensing laws dating back to the 18th century . The current legislation is the Licensing ( Scotland ) Act 2005 , which replaced the Licensing ( Scotland ) Act 1976 on 1 September 2009 . The replaced licensing laws provided for seven types of liquor licence , and were administered by licensing boards , made up of councillors elected to the local authority . There were approximately 30 licensing boards in Scotland and each had its own distinct approach ; for example , whilst there is a set `` permitted hours '' across Scotland , these were frequently extended in order to take account of early morning and late night trading , and each licensing board had its own views on what sort of extra hours a premises should be given . As of 1 February 2008 , Scotland entered a `` transitional period '' in the run - up to the commencement of new licensing legislation -- the Licensing ( Scotland ) Act 2005 . The 2005 Act is , in many respects , similar to the English Licensing Act 2003 : it features the four English licensing objectives , but adds another : `` protecting and improving public health '' . The Act creates one class of licence -- the premises licence -- and also introduces personal licences for those working in the trade . The administration continues to be carried out by licensing boards , but the Act has created new `` Licensing Forums '' in order to increase community involvement , and `` Licensing Standards Officers '' who have an information , mediation , and compliance role . The legislation in Scotland regarding the sale of alcohol is different from the rest of the UK and England in particular . The Alcohol etc . ( Scotland ) Act 2010 has amended the core hours during which stores and supermarkets can sell alcohol . Scotland currently restricts the purchase of alcohol between the hours of 22 : 00 and 10 : 00 . One major change is that Sunday opening hours can be changed to match the rest of the UK , allowing sales from 10 : 00 , rather than 12 : 30 with the 1976 Act . Changes since 2005 ( edit ) Main article : Licensing Act 2003 On 10 July 2003 the Licensing Act 2003 was granted Royal Assent and replaced the previous licensing laws for England and Wales , regulated under several different Acts , with a single unified system covering a range of `` regulated activities '' . Rules as to when establishments can open , for how long , and under what criteria are now not laid down in statute but are individual to the premises and are contained in the conditions on each premises licence . The powers of the 2003 Act came fully into force on 24 November 2005 . Permitted hours ( edit ) Some long - standing traditions ( indeed , legal requirements ) have disappeared as a consequence . First , `` permitted hours '' gained a new meaning . Until the 2003 Act came into force on 24 November 2005 , permitted hours were a standard legal constraint : for example , serving alcohol after 23 : 00 meant that a licensing extension had to exist -- either permanent ( as for nightclubs , for example ) , or by special application from the licensee concerned for a particular occasion . There was also a customary general derogation permitting a modest extension on particular dates , such as New Year 's Eve and some other Public Holidays . Licensees did not need to apply for these and could take advantage of them if they wished without any formality . Now , permitted hours are theoretically continuous : it is possible for a premises licence to be held which allows 24 - hour opening , and indeed some do exist . Most licensed premises do not go this far , but many applied for licences in 2005 that allowed them longer opening hours than before . However , as in the past , there is no obligation for licensees to use all the time permitted to them . Premises that still close ( for commercial reasons ) at 23 : 00 during most of the week may well have licences permitting them to remain open longer , perhaps for several hours . Staying open after 23 : 00 on the spur of the moment is therefore legal at such premises if the licensee decides to do so -- perhaps because custom happens to be good . Of course , the service of alcohol must still cease when the actual licence closing time arrives . Only the holder of the comparatively rare true `` 24 - hour '' licence has complete freedom in this respect . Drinking - up time ( edit ) This section does not cite any sources . Please help improve this section by adding citations to reliable sources . Unsourced material may be challenged and removed . ( August 2016 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) The consumption of alcohol itself is not considered a `` licensable activity '' under the new Licensing Act . Therefore , `` drinking - up time '' ( DUT ) has no legal meaning and has disappeared . For many years ten minutes ( and later extended to twenty minutes ) was the legal dispensation which allowed the consumption of alcohol to continue after the official closing time , which in recent times meant that customers could still drink what they had already bought until 23 : 20 , subject to the licensee 's discretion . After that time consumption had to also stop . With the end of standard permitted hours , this concession became irrelevant and there is no mention of DUT in the 2003 Act . Instead , applicants for premises licences can specify the maximum period ( their `` Opening Hours '' ) for which they wish to allow their customers to stay after the time at which the sale of alcohol ends ( `` the terminal hour '' ) within their Operating Schedule . Some licences do not specify opening hours at all , which allows an unspecified drinking up time , determined only by the licensee 's discretion . In contrast , some licensees call for `` last orders '' twenty minutes ( or more ) before the end of the opening hours specified on their premises ' licence . Scotland ( edit ) Licensing law in Scotland was overhauled by the Licensing ( Scotland ) Act 2005 , which came into force in September 2009 following a transition period starting in February 2008 . The new system covers alcohol sales only , but otherwise is , in most particulars , identical to the system created in England and Wales by the Licensing Act 2003 . There are a number of significant differences , such as a `` duty to trade '' and attempts to control the irresponsible sale of alcohol through curbs on price discounting and other promotions which may lead to excessive consumption . Another law , starting from 1st May 2018 , states that alcohol can not be sold for under 50p per unit . Northern Ireland ( edit ) Licensing proposals in Northern Ireland were first announced by the Northern Ireland Office in 2004 , leading to a consultation in 2005 , again very similar to the Scottish and English Acts . The proposals triggered much initial opposition , even from some parts of the licensed trade . These proposals are not currently proceeding . Under the proposed rules , all premises where regulated activities are carried out must be authorised by a premises licence . Where alcohol is sold the premises must have a designated premises supervisor , who himself must hold a personal licence . There is a parallel system for the registration of private clubs which sell alcohol to members , and which require a club registration certificate . Serving after 23 : 00 ( edit ) Part of the changes since 2005 allow pubs to serve alcohol past 23 : 00 ; this particular part of the legislation was , and remains , very controversial due to the perceived increase in potential for binge drinking and the effects the change will have on social dynamics . However , the new law 's defenders have claimed that the relatively early 23 : 00 closing time itself contributed to binge drinking , as patrons hurried to drink before closing time . Labour also claimed that the fixed closing time contributed to social disorder , as drunken pub patrons were forced into the street at the same time . Both the Conservative Party and Liberal Democrats unsuccessfully called for a delay in the implementation of this law . Licensing policies ( edit ) Each licensing authority must adopt a licensing policy , which gives guidance on when licences will be granted and the conditions and permitted hours likely to be imposed on a premises licence in various circumstances . Licensable activities ( England and Wales ) ( edit ) The Licensing Act 2003 defines `` licensable activities '' as : the retail sale of alcohol , the supply of alcohol in clubs , the provision of late night refreshment , and the provision of regulated entertainment In turn , `` regulated entertainment '' is defined as : a performance of a play , an exhibition of a film , an indoor sporting event , a boxing or wrestling entertainment ( both indoors and outdoors ) , a performance of live music , any playing of recorded music , or a performance of dance entertainment of a similar description to that falling in the previous three categories listed above . There are many exemption categories and qualifications to the above definitions , particularly in respect of Regulated Entertainment and Late Night Refreshment . As a result of changes by the Live Music Act 2012 , for example , live music in on - licensed premises is no longer a licensable activity between 08 : 00 and 23 : 00 hours before audiences of up to 200 people . Similarly performances of plays and of dance are not licensable before audiences of up to 500 people and indoor sporting events up to 1000 people . These changes , brought in from 2013 , coupled with the Live Music Act in 2012 , display a readiness by the Coalition Government to deregulate the prescriptive and sometimes confusing definitions of Regulated Entertainment stated above ( although it should be noted that the Live Music Act was a Private Members ' Bill sponsored by Lord Clement - Jones and drafted by Poppleston Allen Solicitors which was subsequently supported by the Government ) . `` Late night refreshment '' is defined as : the supply of hot food or drink ( that is , food or drink that is either served at , or has been heated on the premises to , a point above ambient temperature ) to the public for consumption , both on or off the premises , between 23 : 00 and 05 : 00 . Licensing objectives ( edit ) The licensing authority , in considering any application for a licence or for a variation must have regard to `` the licensing objectives '' : England and Wales Scotland ( Northern Ireland proposals ) The prevention of crime and disorder ; Public safety ; The prevention of public nuisance ; and The protection of children from harm . Preventing crime and disorder . Securing public safety . Preventing public nuisance . Protecting and improving public health . Protecting children from harm . Promotion of public health . Promotion of public safety . Prevention of crime and disorder . Prevention of public nuisance . Protection of children from harm . Fair treatment of all stakeholders Licensing authorities ( edit ) The licensing authorities are local councils . In two - tier parts of England and Wales , these are the district or borough councils and elsewhere the unitary authority is the licensing authority . In Scotland each council has a Licensing Board to act as licensing authority . For a premises licence , the licensing authority is the council for the place where the premises are located ; where they straddle a boundary , the applicant may choose either one . For a personal licence , it is the licensing authority in whose area the applicant lives . The Licensing Authority is also responsible for the issue of a Personal Licence . Personal licence ( edit ) The Personal Licence allows an individual to sell alcohol or authorise its sale by others . A Personal Licence applicant must , prior to making an application , pass an exam , known as the Award for Personal Licence Holders ( APLH ) The APLH exam is a 40 - question , multiple - choice paper , in which the applicant must achieve a score of 28 out of 40 , or 70 percent . The applicant must also obtain `` Basic Disclosure '' which details any unspent convictions . Upon application and if the applicant has no unspent relevant convictions the licensing authority must grant a Personal Licence , now with no expiry date attached . If relevant convictions are disclosed then the Licensing Authority must send a copy of the application to the local Police , who can object within 14 days . A hearing may then follow . The applicant must make his application to the licensing authority where he ordinarily resides . Any changes to the Personal Licence thereafter ( for example , name or address ) must be notified to that original licensing authority , even if the Personal Licence Holder ( `` PLH '' ) has subsequently moved out of the area . Failure to do so is a criminal offence . A PLH , if charged with a relevant criminal offence , must tell the court at the first appearance that he / she is a Holder of a Personal Licence . Failure to do so is a criminal offence . If the PLH is convicted of the original offence the Court can suspend or forfeit the personal licence . A Personal Licence is valid : In England and Wales , for 10 years . The Government has announced also an intention to remove the requirement to renew personal licences which , if enacted before 2015 will eliminate the need for any renewals . In Scotland , also 10 years but after 5 years the licence holder must satisfy the local licensing board that he or she has passed a refresher course . In Northern Ireland , also 10 years and under substantially stricter conditions as the Licensing Authorities in England , Wales , and Scotland . A Personal Licence granted in one jurisdiction is not valid in another . A Designated Premises Supervisor ( DPS ) is required to be a PLH . The DPS ( or Designated Premises Manager in Scotland ) is responsible for the day - to - day running of the licensed premises . Local variations ( edit ) Local authorities have decided whether or not on a local basis to exercise their power to introduce specific restrictions on outdoor drinking . For example , Reading Borough Council is among authorities to have emulated the conditions of Transport for London that ban drinking in certain locations and the carrying of open alcohol in parts of Reading town centre . The open alcohol container ban and ban on alcohol consumption outright sets a lower threshold than being drunk or drunk and disorderly in a public place . Concerns ( edit ) While the reforms from 2005 were intended to reduce `` binge drinking '' , reports have variously claimed that the situation in England and Wales has not improved , or that it has become even worse . This has prompted a Parliamentary investigation . The Department of Culture , Media and Sport concludes that the position presents `` a mixed picture '' . Perceived problems in England and Wales shaped a slightly different approach in the Licensing ( Scotland ) Act 2005 . Most licensed premises are now following the Challenge 21 rule , which helps with avoiding selling to under age people . When a shop assistant believes that the person may be under 21 , then they will ask the customer to prove that they are over 18 . Challenge 25 ( or older ) was made mandatory in Scotland by the Alcohol etc . ( Scotland ) Act 2010 .

The defence of the mission station of Rorke 's Drift , under the command of Lieutenants John Chard of the Royal Engineers and Gonville Bromhead , immediately followed the British Army 's defeat at the Battle of Isandlwana on 22 January 1879 , and continued into the following day . Just over 150 British and colonial troops successfully defended the garrison against an intense assault by 3,000 to 4,000 Zulu warriors . The massive but piecemeal Zulu attacks on Rorke 's Drift came very close to defeating the much smaller garrison , but were ultimately repelled . Eleven Victoria Crosses were awarded to the defenders , along with a number of other decorations and honours .

It was located near a drift , or ford , on the Buffalo ( Mzinyathi ) River , which at the time formed the border between the British colony of Natal and the Zulu Kingdom . On 9 January 1879 , the British No. 3 ( Centre ) Column , under Lord Chelmsford , arrived and encamped at the drift . On 11 January , the day after the British ultimatum to the Zulus expired , the column crossed the river and encamped on the Zulu bank . A small force consisting of B Company , 2nd Battalion , 24th ( 2nd Warwickshire ) Regiment of Foot ( 2nd / 24th ) under Lieutenant Gonville Bromhead was detailed to garrison the post , which had been turned into a supply depot and hospital under the overall command of Brevet Major Henry Spalding , 104th Foot , a member of Chelmsford 's staff . On 20 January , after reconnaissance patrolling and building of a track for its wagons , Chelmsford 's column marched to Isandlwana , approximately 6 miles ( 9.7 km ) to the east , leaving behind the small garrison . A large company of the 2nd / 3rd Natal Native Contingent ( NNC ) under Captain William Stevenson was ordered to remain at the post to strengthen the garrison . This company numbered between 100 and 350 men . Captain Thomas Rainforth 's G Company of the 1st / 24th Foot was ordered to move up from its station at Helpmekaar , 10 miles ( 16 km ) to the southeast , after its own relief arrived , to further reinforce the position . Later that evening a portion of the No. 2 Column under Brevet Colonel Anthony Durnford , late of the Royal Engineers , arrived at the drift and camped on the Zulu bank , where it remained through the next day . Late on the evening of 21 January , Durnford was ordered to Isandlwana , as was a small detachment of No. 5 Field Company , Royal Engineers , commanded by Lieutenant John Chard , which had arrived on the 19th to repair the pontoons that bridged the Buffalo . Chard rode ahead of his detachment to Isandlwana on the morning of 22 January to clarify his orders , but was sent back to Rorke 's Drift with only his wagon and its driver to construct defensive positions for the expected reinforcement company , passing Durnford 's column en route in the opposite direction . Sometime around noon on the 22nd , Major Spalding left the station for Helpmekaar to ascertain the whereabouts of Rainforth 's G Company , which was now overdue . He left Chard in temporary command . Chard rode down to the drift itself where the engineers ' camp was located . Soon thereafter , two survivors from Isandlwana -- Lieutenant Gert Adendorff of the 1st / 3rd NNC and a trooper from the Natal Carbineers -- arrived bearing the news of the defeat and that a part of the Zulu impi was approaching the station . Upon hearing this news , Chard , Bromhead , and another of the station 's officers , Acting Assistant Commissary James Dalton ( of the Commissariat and Transport Department ) , held a quick meeting to decide the best course of action -- whether to attempt a retreat to Helpmekaar or to defend their current position . Dalton pointed out that a small column , travelling in open country and burdened with carts full of hospital patients , would be easily overtaken and defeated by a numerically superior Zulu force , and so it was soon agreed that the only acceptable course was to remain and fight . Defensive preparations ( edit ) Once the British officers decided to stay , Chard and Bromhead directed their men to make preparations to defend the station . With the garrison 's some 400 men working quickly , a defensive perimeter was constructed out of mealie bags . This perimeter incorporated the storehouse , the hospital , and a stout stone kraal . The buildings were fortified , with loopholes ( firing holes ) knocked through the external walls and the external doors barricaded with furniture . At about 3 : 30 pm , a mixed troop of about 100 Natal Native Horse ( NNH ) under Lieutenant Alfred Henderson arrived at the station after having retreated in good order from Isandlwana . They volunteered to picket the far side of the Oscarberg ( Shiyane ) , the large hill that overlooked the station and from behind which the Zulus were expected to approach . Prince Dabulamanzi kaMpande With the defences nearing completion and battle approaching , Chard had several hundred men available to him : Bromhead 's B Company , Stevenson 's large NNC company , Henderson 's NNH troop , and various others ( most of them hospital patients , but ' walking wounded ' ) drawn from various British and colonial units . Adendorff also stayed , while the trooper who had ridden in with him galloped on to warn the garrison at Helpmekaar . The force was sufficient , in Chard 's estimation , to fend off the Zulus . Chard posted the British soldiers around the perimeter , adding some of the more able patients , the ' casuals ' and civilians , and those of the NNC who possessed firearms along the barricade . The rest of the NNC , armed only with spears , were posted outside the mealie bag and biscuit box barricade within the stone - walled cattle kraal . The approaching Zulu force was vastly larger ; the uDloko , uThulwana , inDlondo amabutho ( regiments ) of married men aged in their 30s and 40s and the inDlu - yengwe ibutho of young unmarried men mustered 3,000 to 4,000 warriors , none of them engaged during the battle at Isandlwana . This Zulu force was the ' loins ' or reserve of the army at Isandlwana and is often referred to as the Undi Corps . It was directed to swing wide of the British left flank and pass west and south of Isandlwana hill itself , in order to position itself across the line of communication and retreat of the British and their colonial allies in order to prevent their escape back into Natal by way of the Buffalo River ford leading to Rorke 's Drift . By the time the Undi Corps reached Rorke 's Drift at 4 : 30 pm , they had fast - marched some 20 miles ( 32 km ) from the morning encampment they had left at around 8 am , and they would spend almost the next eleven and a half hours continuously storming the British fortifications at Rorke 's Drift . Most Zulu warriors were armed with an assegai ( short spear ) and a shield made of cowhide . The Zulu army drilled in the personal and tactical use and coordination of this weapon . Some Zulus also had old muskets and antiquated rifles , though their marksmanship training was poor , and the quality and supply of powder and shot was dreadful . Historical picture of Zulu warriors from about the same time as the events at Rorke 's Drift The Zulu attitude towards firearms was that : `` The generality of Zulu warriors , however , would not have firearms -- the arms of a coward , as they said , for they enable the poltroon to kill the brave without awaiting his attack . '' Even though their fire was not accurate , it was responsible for five of the seventeen British deaths at Rorke 's Drift . While the Undi Corps had been led by inkhosi kaMapitha at the Isandlwana battle , the command of the Undi Corps passed to Prince Dabulamanzi kaMpande ( half - brother of Cetshwayo kaMpande , the Zulu king ) when kaMapitha was wounded during the pursuit of British fugitives from Isandlwana . Prince Dabulamanzi was considered rash and aggressive , and this characterisation was borne out by his violation of King Cetshwayo 's order to act only in defence of Zululand against the invading British soldiers and not carry the war over the border into enemy territory . The Rorke 's Drift attack was an unplanned raid rather than any organised counter-invasion , with many of the Undi Corps Zulus breaking off to raid other African kraals and homesteads while the main body advanced on Rorke 's Drift . At about 4 : 00 pm , Surgeon James Reynolds , Otto Witt -- the Swedish missionary who ran the mission at Rorke 's Drift -- and army chaplain Reverend George Smith came down from the Oscarberg hillside with the news that a body of Zulus was fording the river to the southeast and was `` no more than five minutes away '' . At this point , Witt decided to depart the station , as his family lived in an isolated farmhouse about 30 kilometres ( 19 mi ) away , and he wanted to be with them . Witt 's native servant , Umkwelnantaba , left with him ; so too did one of the hospital patients , Lieutenant Thomas Purvis of the 1st / 3rd NNC .

( October 2010 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) Contemporary drawing of Rorke 's Drift Post , from The History of the Corps of Royal Engineers . The Defence of Rorke 's Drift by Lady Butler ( 1880 ) . Among those depicted are Lieutenants Chard and Bromhead ( centre ) commanding the battle , Private Hitch ( right , standing ) handing out ammunition while wounded , and Surgeon Reynolds and Storekeeper Byrne tending to the wounded Corporal Scammell ( Reynolds kneeling ; Byrne falling , shot ) . Possibly Corporal Schiess is shown at centre background at the barricade just to left of Chard and Bromhead in NNC uniform -- face not shown . At about 4 : 20 pm , the battle began with Lieutenant Henderson 's NNH troopers , stationed behind the Oscarberg , briefly engaging the vanguard of the main Zulu force . However , tired from the battle at Isandlwana and retreat to Rorke 's Drift as well as being short of carbine ammunition , Henderson 's men departed for Helpmekaar . Henderson himself reported to Lieutenant Chard the enemy were close and that `` his men would not obey his orders but were going off to Helpmekaar '' . Henderson then followed his departing men . Upon witnessing the withdrawal of Henderson 's NNH troop , Captain Stevenson 's NNC company abandoned the cattle kraal and fled , greatly reducing the strength of the defending garrison . Outraged that Stevenson and some of his colonial NCOs also fled from the barricades , a few British soldiers fired after them , killing Corporal William Anderson . With the Zulus nearly at the station , the garrison now numbered between 154 and 156 men . Of these , only Bromhead 's company could be considered a cohesive unit . Additionally , up to 39 of his company were at the station as hospital patients , although only a handful of these were unable to take up arms . With fewer men , Chard realised the need to modify the defences , and gave orders that biscuit boxes be used to construct a wall through the middle of the post in order to make possible the abandonment of the hospital side of the station if the need arose . At 4 : 30 pm , the Zulus rounded the Oscarberg and approached the south wall . Private Frederick Hitch , posted as lookout atop the storehouse , reported a large column of Zulus approaching . The Zulu vanguard , 600 men of the iNdluyengwe , attacked the south wall , which joined the hospital and the storehouse . The British opened fire when the Zulus were 500 yards ( 460 m ) away . The majority of the attacking Zulu force swept around to attack the north wall , while a few took cover and were either pinned down by continuing British fire or retreated to the terraces of Oscarberg . There they began a harassing fire of their own . As this occurred , another Zulu force swept on to the hospital and northwestern wall . Those British on the barricades -- including Dalton and Bromhead -- were soon engaged in fierce hand - to - hand fighting . The British wall was too high for the Zulus to scale , so they resorted to crouching under the wall , trying to get hold of the defenders ' Martini -- Henry rifles , slashing at British soldiers with assegais or firing their weapons through the wall . At places , they clambered over each other 's bodies to drive the British off the walls but were driven back . Zulu fire , both from those under the wall and around the Oscarberg , inflicted a few casualties , and five of the seventeen defenders who were killed or mortally wounded in the action were struck while at the north wall . Defence of the hospital ( edit ) Chard realised that the north wall , under near constant Zulu attack , could not be held . At 6 : 00 pm , he pulled his men back into the yard , abandoning the front two rooms of the hospital in the process . The hospital was becoming untenable ; as the loopholes had become a liability : rifles poking out were grabbed at by the Zulus , yet if the holes were left empty , the Zulu warriors stuck their own weapons through in order to fire into the rooms . Among the soldiers assigned to the hospital were Corporal William Wilson Allen and Privates Cole , Dunbar , Hitch , Horrigan , John Williams , Joseph Williams , Alfred Henry Hook , Robert Jones , and William Jones . Privates Horrigan , John Williams , Joseph Williams and other patients tried to hold the hospital entrance with rifles and fixed bayonets . Joseph Williams defended a small window , and 14 dead Zulus were later found beneath that window . As it became clear the front of the building was being taken over by Zulus , John Williams began to hack a way of escape through the wall dividing the central room and a corner room in the back of the hospital . As he made a passable breach , the door into the central room came under furious attack from the Zulus , and he only had time to drag two bedridden patients out before the door gave way . The corner room that John Williams had pulled the two patients into was occupied by Private Hook and another nine patients . John Williams hacked at the wall to the next room with his pick - axe , as Hook held off the Zulus . A firefight erupted as the Zulus fired through the door and Hook returned fire -- but not without an assegai striking his helmet and stunning him . Williams made the hole big enough to get into the next room , which was occupied only by patient Private Waters , and dragged the patients through . The last man out was Hook , who killed some Zulus who had knocked down the door before he dived through the hole . John Williams once again went to work , spurred on by the fact that the roof was now ablaze , as Hook defended the hole and Waters continued to fire through a loophole . After fifty minutes , the hole was large enough to drag the patients through , and the men -- save Privates Waters and Beckett , who hid in the wardrobe ( Waters was wounded and Beckett died of assegai wounds ) -- were now in the last room , being defended by Privates Robert Jones and William Jones . From here , the patients clambered out through a window and then made their way across the yard to the barricade . Of the eleven patients , nine survived the trip to the barricade , as did all the able - bodied men . According to James Henry Reynolds , only four defenders were killed in the hospital : one was a member of the Natal Native Contingent with a broken leg ; Sergeant Maxfield and Private Jenkins , who were ill with fever and refused to be moved were also killed . Reportedly , Jenkins was killed after being seized and stabbed , together with Private Adams who also refused to move . Private Cole , assigned to the hospital , was killed when he ran outside . Another hospital patient killed was Trooper Hunter of the Natal Mounted Police . Among the hospital patients who escaped were a Corporal Mayer of the NNC ; Bombardier Lewis of the Royal Artillery , and Trooper Green of the Natal Mounted Police , who was wounded in the thigh by a spent bullet . Private Conley with a broken leg was pulled to safety by Hook , although Conley 's leg was broken again in the process . The cattle kraal and the bastion ( edit ) The evacuation of the burning hospital completed the shortening of the perimeter . As night fell , the Zulu attacks grew stronger . The cattle kraal came under renewed assault and was evacuated by 10 : 00 pm , leaving the remaining men in a small bastion around the storehouse . Throughout the night , the Zulus kept up a constant assault against the British positions ; Zulu attacks only began to slacken after midnight , and they finally ended by 2 : 00 am , being replaced by a constant harassing fire from Zulu firearms until 4 : 00 am . By that time , the garrison had suffered fourteen dead . Two others were mortally wounded and eight more -- including Dalton -- were seriously wounded . Almost every man had some kind of wound . They were all exhausted , having fought for the better part of ten hours and were running low on ammunition . Of 20,000 rounds in reserve at the mission , only 900 remained . Aftermath ( edit ) As dawn broke , the British could see that the Zulus were gone ; all that remained were the dead and severely wounded . Patrols were dispatched to scout the battlefield , recover rifles , and look for survivors , many of whom were killed when found . At roughly 7 : 00 am , an Impi of Zulus suddenly appeared , and the British manned their positions again . No attack materialised however , as the Zulus had been on the move for six days prior to the battle and had not eaten properly for two . In their ranks were hundreds of wounded , and they were several days ' march from any supplies . Soon after their appearance , the Zulus left the way they had come . Around 8 : 00 am , another force appeared , and the redcoats left their breakfast to man their positions again . However , the force turned out to be the vanguard of Lord Chelmsford 's relief column . Breakdown of British and colonial casualties : 1st / 24th Foot : 4 killed or mortally wounded in action ; 2 wounded 2nd / 24th Foot : 9 killed or mortally wounded in action ; 9 wounded Commissariat and Transport Department : 1 killed in action ; 1 wounded Natal Mounted Police : 1 killed in action ; 1 wounded 1st / 3rd NNC : 1 killed in action 2nd / 3rd NNC : 2 wounded Also , as mentioned , one member of Stevenson 's 2nd / 3rd NNC , Corporal William Anderson , was killed by British fire while fleeing the station just prior to the arrival of the Zulus . After the battle 351 Zulu bodies were counted , but it has been estimated that at least 500 wounded and captured Zulus might have been massacred as well . Having witnessed the carnage at Isandlwana , the members of Chelmsford 's relief force had no mercy for the captured , wounded Zulus they came across . Nor did the station 's defenders . Trooper William James Clarke of the Natal Mounted Police described in his diary that `` altogether we buried 375 Zulus and some wounded were thrown into the grave . Seeing the manner in which our wounded had been mutilated after being dragged from the hospital ... we were very bitter and did not spare wounded Zulus '' . Laband , in his book The Zulu Response to the British Invasion of 1879 , accepts the estimate of 600 that Shepstone had from the Zulus . Samuel Pitt , who served as a private in B Company during the battle , told The Western Mail in 1914 that the official enemy death toll was too low : `` We reckon we had accounted for 875 , but the books will tell you 400 or 500 '' . Lieutenant Horace Smith - Dorrien , a member of Chelmsford 's staff , wrote that the day after the battle an improvised gallows was used `` for hanging Zulus who were supposed to have behaved treacherously '' . Victoria Crosses and Distinguished Conduct Medals ( edit ) Main article : List of Zulu War Victoria Cross recipients John Chard VC , as a lieutenant - colonel Eleven Victoria Crosses were awarded to the defenders of Rorke 's Drift , seven of them to soldiers of the 2nd / 24th Foot -- the most ever received for a single action by one regiment ( although not , as commonly thought , the most awarded in a single action or the most in a day : sixteen were awarded for actions at the Battle of Inkerman , on 5 November 1854 ; twenty - eight were awarded as a result of the Second Relief of Lucknow , 14 -- 22 November 1857 ) . Four Distinguished Conduct Medals were also awarded . This high number of awards for bravery has been interpreted as a reaction to the earlier defeat at the Battle of Isandlwana -- the extolling of the victory at Rorke 's Drift drawing the public 's attention away from the great defeat at Isandlwana and the fact that Lord Chelmsford and Henry Bartle Frere had instigated the war without the approval of Her Majesty 's Government . Certainly , Sir Garnet Wolseley , taking over as commander - in - chief from Lord Chelmsford later that year , was unimpressed with the awards made to the defenders of Rorke 's Drift , saying `` it is monstrous making heroes of those who , shut up in buildings at Rorke 's Drift , could not bolt and fought like rats for their lives , which they could not otherwise save '' . Several historians have challenged this assertion and pointed out that the victory stands on its own merits , regardless of other concerns . Victor Davis Hanson responded to it directly in Carnage and Culture ( also published as Why the West Has Won ) , saying , `` Modern critics suggest such lavishness in commendation was designed to assuage the disaster at Isandhlwana and to reassure a skeptical Victorian public that the fighting ability of the British soldier remained unquestioned . Maybe , maybe not , but in the long annals of military history , it is difficult to find anything quite like Rorke 's Drift , where a beleaguered force , outnumbered forty to one , survived and killed twenty men for every defender lost '' . Awarded the Victoria Cross : Lieutenant John Rouse Merriott Chard , 5th Field Coy , Royal Engineers Lieutenant Gonville Bromhead ; B Coy , 2nd / 24th Foot Corporal William Wilson Allen ; B Coy , 2nd / 24th Foot Private Frederick Hitch ; B Coy , 2nd / 24th Foot Private Alfred Henry Hook ; B Coy , 2nd / 24th Foot Private Robert Jones ; B Coy , 2nd / 24th Foot Private William Jones ; B Coy , 2nd / 24th Foot Private John Williams ; B Coy , 2nd / 24th Foot Surgeon - Major James Henry Reynolds ; Army Medical Department Acting Assistant Commissary James Langley Dalton ; Commissariat and Transport Department Corporal Christian Ferdinand Schiess ; 2nd / 3rd Natal Native Contingent In 1879 there was no provision for the posthumous granting of the Victoria Cross , and so it could not be awarded to anyone who had died in performing an act of bravery . In light of this , an unofficial `` twelfth VC '' may be added to those listed : Private Joseph Williams , B Coy , 2nd / 24th Foot , who was killed during the fight in the hospital and for whom it was mentioned in despatches that `` had he lived he would have been recommended for the Victoria Cross '' . Awarded the Distinguished Conduct Medal : Sgt Frank Bourne , DCM , in 1905 Gunner John Cantwell ; N Batt , 5th Brig Royal Horse Artillery ( demoted from bombardier wheeler the day before the battle ) Private John William Roy ; 1st / 24th Foot Colour Sergeant Frank Edward Bourne ; B Coy , 2nd / 24th Foot Second Corporal Francis Attwood ; Army Service Corps On 15 January 1880 , a submission for a DCM was also made for Private Michael McMahon ( Army Hospital Corps ) . The submission was cancelled on 29 January 1880 for absence without leave and theft . Depictions and dramatisations ( edit ) The events surrounding the assault on Rorke 's Drift were first dramatised by military painters , notably Elizabeth Butler and Alphonse de Neuville . Their work was vastly popular in their day among the citizens of the British empire . In 1914 , a touring English Northern Union rugby league team defeated Australia 14 -- 6 to win the Ashes in the final Test match . Depleted by injuries and fielding only ten men for much of the second half , the English outclassed and outfought the Australians in what quickly became known as the ' Rorke 's Drift Test ' . The 1964 film Zulu produced by Stanley Baker is a depiction of the Battle of Rorke 's Drift . The film received generally positive reviews from the critics . Some details of the film 's account are , however , historically inaccurate ( for example , in the movie the regiment is called the South Wales Borderers but the unit was not in fact called that until two years after the battle , although the regiment had been based at Brecon in South Wales since 1873 ) . While most of the men of the 1st Battalion , 24th Regiment of Foot ( 1 / 24 ) were recruited from the industrial towns and agricultural classes of England , principally from Birmingham and adjacent southwest counties , only 10 soldiers of the 1 / 24 that fought in the battle were Welsh . Many of the soldiers of the junior battalion , the 2 / 24 , were Welshmen . Of the 122 soldiers of the 24th Regiment present at the Battle of Rorke 's Drift , 49 are known to have been of English nationality , 32 were Welsh , 16 were Irish , one was a Scot , and three were born overseas . The nationalities of the remaining 21 are unknown . In 1990 the game developer Impressions Games released a video game based on the historical battle . The battle was also featured by Mad Doc Software in its 2006 strategy game Empire Earth II : The Art of Supremacy as one of its `` turning point '' battle modes . S.M. Stirling 's 2000 novel On the Oceans of Eternity depicts a battle between the small garrison force defending a Republic of Nantucket supply base and a massed force of Ringapi warriors ; not only are the defensive tactics taken almost directly from Lt. Chard 's plan for the defense of Rorke 's Drift , but the battle itself later becomes known as `` The Battle of O'Rourke's Ford '' . The battle of Rorke 's Drift was given a chapter in military historian Victor Davis Hanson 's book Carnage and Culture ( 2002 ) as one of several landmark battles demonstrating the superior effectiveness of Western military practices . The album The Last Stand by the Swedish band Sabaton has a song about the battle . `` The Tale of Isandhlwana and Rorke 's Drift '' is an account written by H. Rider Haggard in True Story Book by Andrew Lang . While being a true account of the battle and naming many important figures , the writing omits Surgeon Reynolds , who played a crucial role in the defence .

animals of the ice age in north america
Pleistocene megafauna - wikipedia Pleistocene megafauna Recreation of a scene in late Pleistocene northern Spain , by Mauricio Antón Pleistocene megafauna is the set of large animals that lived on Earth during the Pleistocene epoch and became extinct during the Quaternary extinction event . Megafauna is a term used to describe animals with an adult body weight of over 44 kg ( 97 lbs ) . Contents ( hide ) 1 Paleoecology 2 Theories 3 Regions affected 3.1 North America 3.2 South America 3.3 Australia 3.4 Eurasia 3.5 Insular 4 See also 5 References 6 External links Paleoecology ( edit ) The last glacial period , commonly referred to as the ' Ice Age ' , spanned 125,000 to 14,500 years ago and was the most recent glacial period within the current ice age which occurred during the last years of the Pleistocene epoch . The Ice Age reached its peak during the last glacial maximum , when ice sheets commenced advancing from 33,000 years BP and reached their maximum positions 26,500 years BP . Deglaciation commenced in the Northern Hemisphere approximately 19,000 years BP , and in Antarctica approximately 14,500 years BP which is consistent with evidence that this was the primary source for an abrupt rise in the sea level 14,500 years ago . A vast mammoth steppe stretched from the Iberian peninsula across Eurasia and over the Bering land bridge into Alaska and the Yukon where it was stopped by the Wisconsin glaciation . This land bridge existed because more of the planet 's water was locked up in glaciation than now and therefore the sea - levels were lower . When the sea levels began to rise this bridge was inundated around 11,000 years BP . During the last glacial maximum , the continent of Europe was much colder and drier than it is today , with polar desert in the north and the remainder steppe or tundra . Forest and woodland was almost non-existent , except for isolated pockets in the mountain ranges of southern Europe . The fossil evidence from many continents points to the extinction mainly of large animals at or near the end of the last glaciation . These animals have been termed the Pleistocene megafauna . The most common definition of megafauna is the set of animals with an adult body weight of over 44 kg . Across Eurasia , the straight - tusked elephant became extinct between 100,000 -- 50,000 years BP . The cave bear ( Ursus spelaeus ) , interglacial rhinoceros ( Stephanorhinus ) , heavy - bodied Asian antelope ( Spirocerus ) , and the Eurasian hippopotamuses died out between 50,000 - 16,000 years BP . The spotted hyena , woolly rhinoceros and mammoths died out between 16,000 - 11,500 years BP . The musk ox died out after 11,500 BP , as did the giant deer ( Megaloceros ) with the last pocket having survived until about 7,700 years BP in western Siberia . A pocket of mammoths survived on Wrangel Island until 4,500 years BP . As some species became extinct , so too did their predators . Among the top predators , the sabre - toothed cat ( Homotherium ) died out 28,000 years BP , the cave lion 11,900 years BP , and the leopard in Europe died out 27,000 years BP . The Late Pleistocene was characterized by a series of severe and rapid climate oscillations with regional temperature changes of up to 16 ° C , which has been correlated with megafaunal extinctions . There is no evidence of megafaunal extinctions at the height of the LGM , indicating that increasing cold and glaciation were not factors . Multiple events appear to also involve the rapid replacement of one species by one within the same genus , or one population by another within the same species , across a broad area . The ancestors of modern humans first appeared in East Africa 195,000 years ago . Some migrated out of Africa 60,000 years ago with one group reaching Central Asia 50,000 years ago . From there they reached Europe , with human remains dated 43,000 - 45,000 years BP discovered in Italy , Britain , and in the European Russian Arctic dated to 40,000 years ago . Another group left Central Asia and reached the Yana River , Siberia , well above the Arctic circle 27,000 years ago . Remains of mammoth that had been hunted by humans 45,000 YBP have been found at Yenisei Bay in the central Siberian Arctic . Modern humans then made their way across the Bering land bridge and into North America between 20,000 - 11,000 years ago , after the Wisconsin glaciation had retreated but before the Bering land bridge became inundated by the sea . These people then populated the Americas . In the Fertile crescent the first agriculture was developing 11,500 years ago . Theories ( edit ) Four theories have been advanced as likely causes of these extinctions : hunting by the spreading humans , climatic change , spreading disease , and an impact from an asteroid or comet . These factors are not necessarily exclusive : two or more may have combined to cause the extinctions . Most evidence suggests that humans were a major factor responsible for these extinctions . Regions affected ( edit ) See also : Quaternary extinction event North America ( edit ) A painting by Heinrich Harder showing an aurochs fighting off a Eurasian wolf pack Sir Richard Owen and a Dinornis ( moa ) skeleton During the American megafaunal extinction event around 12,700 years ago , 90 genera of mammals weighing over 44 kilograms became extinct . The Late Pleistocene fauna in North America included giant sloths , short - faced bears , several species of tapirs , peccaries ( including the long nosed and flat - headed peccaries ) , the American lion , giant tortoises , Miracinonyx ( `` American cheetahs '' , not true cheetahs ) , saber - toothed cats like Smilodon and the scimitar cat , Homotherium , dire wolves , saiga , camelids such as two species of now extinct llamas and Camelops , at least two species of bison , the stag - moose , the shrub - ox and Harlan 's muskox , 14 species of pronghorn ( of which 13 are now extinct ) , horses , mammoths and mastodons , the beautiful armadillo and the giant armadillo - like Glyptotherium , and giant beavers , as well as birds like giant condors and other teratorns . The nine - foot sabertooth salmon lived at the time as well . In contrast , today the largest North American land animal is the American bison . South America ( edit ) South American wildlife in the Pleistocene varied greatly , an example is the giant ground sloth , Megatherium . The continent also had quite a few grazers and mixed feeders such as the camel - like litoptern Macrauchenia , Cuvieronius , Doedicurus , Glyptodon , Hippidion and Toxodon . There were also Stegomastodons , found as South as the Patagonia . The main predators of the region were Arctotherium and Smilodon . Australia ( edit ) Main article : Australian megafauna Australia was characterized by marsupials , monotremes , crocodilians , testudines , monitors and numerous large flightless birds . Pleistocene Australia also supported the large short - faced kangaroo ( Procoptodon goliah ) , Diprotodon ( a giant wombat ) , the marsupial lion ( Thylacoleo carnifex ) , the flightless birds Genyornis and Dromornis , the 5 - meter snake Wonambi and the giant lizard , the megalania . Eurasia ( edit ) As with South America , some elements of the Eurasian megafauna were similar to those of North America . Among the most recognizable Eurasian species are the woolly mammoth , steppe mammoth , straight - tusked elephant , aurochs , steppe bison , cave lion , cave bear , cave hyena , Homotherium , Irish elk , giant polar bears , woolly rhinoceros , Merck 's rhinoceros , narrow - nosed rhinoceros , and Elasmotherium . In contrast today the largest European land mammal is the European bison or wisent . Insular ( edit ) Skull of Canariomys bravoi ( Tenerife giant rat ) . It was an endemic species that is now extinct . Many islands had a unique megafauna that became extinct upon the arrival of humans more recently ( over the last few millennia and continuing into recent centuries ) . These included dwarf woolly mammoths on Wrangel Island , St. Paul Island and the Channel Islands of California ; giant bird forms in New Zealand such as the moas and Harpagornis ( a giant eagle ) ; numerous species in Madagascar : giant lemurs , including Megaladapis , Palaeopropithecus and the gorilla - sized Archaeoindris , three species of hippopotamus , a giant tortoise , the Voay - crocodile and the gigantic Aepyornis ; various giant tortoise species from the Mascarenes ; a dwarf Stegodon on Flores and a number of other islands ; land turtles and crocodiles in New Caledonia ; giant owls and dwarf ground sloths in the Caribbean ; giant geese and moa - nalo ( giant ducks ) in Hawaii ; and dwarf elephants and dwarf hippos from the Mediterranean islands . The Canary Islands were also inhabited by an endemic megafauna which are now extinct : giant lizards ( Gallotia goliath ) , giant rats ( Canariomys bravoi and Canariomys tamarani ) and giant tortoises ( Geochelone burchardi and Geochelone vulcanica ) , among others .

who has won most academy awards for best actress
List of actors with two or more Academy Awards in acting categories - wikipedia List of actors with two or more Academy Awards in acting categories Jump to : navigation , search Katharine Hepburn won four Academy Awards for Best Actress , more than any other actor in the history of the Academy Awards . The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has given Academy Awards to actors and actresses for their performances in films since its inception . Throughout the history of the Academy Awards , there have been actors and actresses who have received multiple Academy Awards for Best Actor , Best Actress , Best Supporting Actor , or Best Supporting Actress . The only restriction is that actors can not receive multiple nominations for the same performance . This rule was implemented after Barry Fitzgerald received a Best Actor and a Best Supporting Actor nomination for his performance in Going My Way . As of 2018 , 41 actors and actresses have received two or more Academy Awards in acting categories . Katharine Hepburn leads the way with four Best Actress awards . Five have won three Academy Awards : Ingrid Bergman ( two Best Actress awards and one Best Supporting Actress award ) , Walter Brennan ( three Best Supporting Actor awards ) , Jack Nicholson ( two Best Actor awards and one Best Supporting Actor award ) , Meryl Streep ( two Best Actress awards and one Best Supporting Actress award ) , and Daniel Day - Lewis ( three Best Actor awards ) . Brennan was the first to receive three or more Academy Awards in 1940 , followed by Hepburn in 1968 , Bergman in 1974 , Nicholson in 1997 , Streep in 2011 , and most recently Day - Lewis in 2012 . Of the six , only Nicholson , Streep , and Day - Lewis are still living . While there is no restriction on a performer winning the Best Actor / Actress and Best Supporting Actor / Actress awards in the same year for two different roles in two different movies , this had yet to happen .

It was written by George Harrison , the band 's lead guitarist . The song serves as a comment on the disharmony within the Beatles following their return from studying Transcendental Meditation in India in early 1968 . This lack of camaraderie was reflected in the band 's initial apathy towards the composition , which Harrison countered by inviting his friend and occasional collaborator , Eric Clapton , to contribute to the recording . Clapton overdubbed a lead guitar part , although he was not formally credited for his contribution . Harrison wrote `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' as an exercise in randomness inspired by the Chinese I Ching . The song conveys his dismay at the world 's unrealised potential for universal love , which he refers to as `` the love there that 's sleeping '' . Harrison first recorded it with a sparse backing of acoustic guitar and harmonium -- a version that appeared on the 1996 Anthology 3 outtakes compilation and , with the addition of a string arrangement by George Martin , on the Love soundtrack album in 2006 . The full group recording was made in September 1968 , at which point the song 's folk - based musical arrangement was replaced by a production in the heavy rock style . The recording was one of several collaborations between Harrison and Clapton during the late 1960s and was followed by the pair co-writing the song `` Badge '' for Clapton 's group Cream . On release , the song received praise from several music critics , and it has since been recognised as an example of Harrison 's continued maturity as a songwriter beside his Beatles bandmates John Lennon and Paul McCartney . Rolling Stone ranked `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' 136th on its list of `` The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time '' , seventh on the `` 100 Greatest Guitar Songs of All Time '' , and at number 10 on its list of `` The Beatles 100 Greatest Songs '' . Clapton 's performance was ranked 42nd in Guitar World 's 2008 list of the `` 100 Greatest Guitar Solos '' . Harrison and Clapton often performed the song together live , during which they shared the lead guitarist 's role over the closing section . Live versions featuring the pair were included on the Concert for Bangladesh album in 1971 and Live in Japan in 1992 . Backed by a band that included McCartney and Ringo Starr , Clapton performed the song at the Concert for George in November 2002 , a year after Harrison 's death .

I picked up a book at random , opened it , saw `` gently weeps '' , then laid the book down again and started the song . -- George Harrison George Harrison wrote `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' after his return from India , where the Beatles had been studying Transcendental Meditation under Maharishi Mahesh Yogi during the spring of 1968 . The visit had allowed Harrison to re-engage with the guitar as his primary instrument , after focusing on the Indian sitar for the previous two years , and also marked the start of a prolific period for him as a songwriter . Inspiration for the song came to him when he was visiting his parents in Warrington , Cheshire , and he began reading the I Ching , or `` The Book of Changes '' . As Harrison put it , `` ( the book ) seemed to me to be based on the Eastern concept that everything is relative to everything else , as opposed to the Western view that things are merely coincidental . '' Embracing this idea of relativism , he committed to writing a song based on the first words he saw upon opening a book , which happened to be `` gently weeps '' . Harrison continued to work on the lyrics after this initial writing session . The song reflects the disharmonious atmosphere within the Beatles following their return from India . Harrison had led the band in their highly publicised endorsement of Transcendental Meditation and viewed this spiritual pursuit as superior in importance to their career momentum . When discussing another song he wrote at this time , `` Not Guilty '' , Harrison said it referred to `` the grief I was catching '' from John Lennon and Paul McCartney for leading them to Rishikesh and supposedly hindering the group 's career and the launch of their Apple record label . Eric Clapton , with whom Harrison collaborated on several recordings throughout 1968 as a distraction from the Beatles , said that `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' conveyed Harrison 's spiritual isolation within the group . Author Jonathan Gould writes that , although in the past each of the Beatles had become temporarily subsumed in fads and personal interests , the level of Harrison 's commitment to Indian spirituality as an alternative to the band was unprecedented . A demo that Harrison recorded at his home in Esher includes an unused verse : `` I look at the trouble and see that it 's raging / While my guitar gently weeps / As I 'm sitting here , doing nothing but ageing ... '' This version also includes the line `` The problems you sow are the troubles you 're reaping '' , which he similarly discarded . An early acoustic guitar and harmonium performance of the song features a slightly different third verse : `` I look from the wings at the play you are staging / While my guitar gently weeps / As I 'm sitting here , doing nothing but ageing ... '' This version was released on the 1996 compilation Anthology 3 and was used as the basis of the 2006 Love remix , with a string arrangement by George Martin . Composition ( edit ) Music ( edit ) `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' was one of the few Beatles compositions from early 1968 that changed markedly from demo form to the official recording . Harrison 's demos suggest the influence of folk music , yet the Beatles ' version is in the heavy rock style typical of much of the band 's late 1960s work . While noting the importance of Harrison 's return to the guitar during this period , Gould describes the song as `` virtually a declaration of his recommitment to rock '' . The song as originally issued by the Beatles is in the key of A minor , changing to A major over the bridges . Aside from the intro , the composition is structured into two rounds of verse and bridge , with an instrumental passage extending the second of these verse sections , followed by a final verse and a long instrumental passage that fades out on the released recording . All the sections consist of an even sixteen bars or measures , which are divided into four phrases . The chord progression over the verses includes a shift to a ♭ 7 ( Am / G ) on `` all '' ( bass note G ) and a 6 ( D9 ( major 3rd F ♯ ) ) after `` love '' ( bass note F ♯ ) to a ♭ 6 ( Fmaj7 ) on `` sleeping '' ( bass note F ) . According to musicologist Dominic Pedler , the 8 -- ♭ 7 -- 6 -- ♭ 6 progression represents a hybrid of the Aeolian and Dorian modes . The change to the parallel major key is heralded by a C chord as the verse 's penultimate chord ( replacing the D used in the second phrase of each verse ) before the E that leads into the bridge . Musicologist Alan Pollack views this combination of C and E as representing a sense of `` arrival '' , after which the bridge contains `` upward ( harmonic ) gestures '' that contrast with the bass descents that dominate the verse . Such contrasts are limited by the inclusion of minor triads ( III , VI and II ) played over the E chord that ends the bridge 's second and fourth phrases . Lyrics ( edit ) In his lyrics to `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' , Harrison revisits the theme of universal love and the philosophical concerns that were evident in his overtly Indian - influenced compositions , particularly `` Within You Without You '' . The song is a lament for how a universal love for humankind is latent in all individuals yet remains unrealised . In the description of theologian Dale Allison , the song `` conveys spiritual angst and an urgent religious point of view without being explicitly theological '' . Harrison sings of surveying `` you all '' and seeing `` the love there that 's sleeping '' . Musicologist Walter Everett comments that the change from the minor - mode verse to the parallel major might express hope that `` unrealized potential '' described in the lyrics is to be `` fulfilled '' , but the continued minor triads `` seem to express a strong dismay that love is not to be unfolded '' . During the bridges , Harrison adopts a repetitive rhyming scheme in the style of Bob Dylan to convey how humankind has become distracted from its ability to manifest this love . He sings of people that have been `` inverted '' and `` perverted '' from their natural perspective . According to Harrison biographer Joshua Greene , the song 's message reflects the pessimism encouraged by world events throughout 1968 , such as the assassinations of Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy in the United States , and the Soviet Russian oppression of Czechoslovakia . Allison writes that the lyrics represent the `` antithesis of spiritual triumphalism '' , in which Harrison `` mourns because love has not conquered all '' . Recording ( edit ) Early attempts and basic track ( edit ) The Beatles recorded `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' several times during the sessions for their self - titled double album , also known as `` the White Album '' . The recording sessions , which began in late May 1968 , were characterised by a lack of cooperation among the four band members , and by what Lennon 's bandmates regarded as the overly intrusive presence of his new romantic partner , Yoko Ono . In this atmosphere , Harrison had initially been reluctant to present his new compositions to the group . Take 1 on 25 July -- the version later issued on Anthology 3 -- was a solo performance by Harrison , playing his Gibson J - 200 acoustic guitar , with an overdubbed harmonium part . Sessions on 16 August and 5 September produced full band recordings of the song . In the case of the 16 August version , an overdubbing session on 3 September marked the first time that the Beatles had used eight - track recording at EMI Studios . At the same session , Harrison overdubbed a backwards ( or `` backmasked '' ) guitar solo , as he had done two years before on `` I 'm Only Sleeping '' , on the Revolver album , but he was not satisfied with the results . The Beatles then remade the basic track on 5 September -- a session that marked Ringo Starr 's return to the group after he had walked out on 22 August , upset at the unpleasant atmosphere . While Harrison led the band in welcoming back their drummer , by installing a large flower display all over Starr 's drum kit , he continued to think that his bandmates were not giving their best to the song . Overdubs ( edit ) Clapton had given Harrison his red Gibson Les Paul shortly before the session and subsequently used it on the song . On 6 September , during a ride from Surrey into London , Harrison asked Clapton to play guitar on the track . Clapton , who recognised Harrison 's talent as a songwriter , and considered that his abilities had long been held back by Lennon and McCartney , was nevertheless reluctant to participate ; he later recalled that his initial response was : `` I ca n't do that . Nobody ever plays on Beatles records . '' Harrison convinced him , and Clapton 's lead guitar part , played on Harrison 's Gibson Les Paul electric guitar `` Lucy '' ( a recent gift from Clapton ) , was overdubbed that evening . Recalling the session in his 2007 autobiography , Clapton says that , while Lennon and McCartney were `` fairly non-committal '' , he thought the track `` sounded fantastic '' , adding : `` I knew George was happy , because he listened to it over and over in the control room . '' Harrison recalled that Clapton 's presence also ensured that his bandmates `` tr ( ied ) a bit harder '' and `` were all on their best behaviour '' . The Beatles carried out the remaining overdubs , which included an ascending piano motif , played by McCartney , over the introduction , Hammond organ by Harrison , and further percussion by Starr . McCartney also added a second bass part , played on his Fender Jazz Bass rather than on either of his preferred Hofner or Rickenbacker models . Mixing ( edit ) Still wary that his contribution might present too much of a departure from the band 's sound , Clapton requested that Harrison give the lead guitar track a more `` Beatley '' sound when mixing the song . During final mixing for the White Album , on 14 October , the guitar part was run through an ADT circuit with `` varispeed '' , with engineer Chris Thomas manipulating the oscillator to achieve the desired `` wobbly '' effect . According to Everett , Lennon 's tremolo - rich guitar part , recorded on 5 September , was retained only in the song 's coda . Clapton 's guitar contribution has been described as making this a `` monumental '' track . As particularly notable features , Everett highlights the increasing lengths of thrice - heard first scale degrees ( 0 : 17 -- 0 : 19 ) , the restraint shown by rests in many bars then unexpected appearances ( as at 0 : 28 -- 0 : 29 ) , commanding turnaround phrases ( 0 : 31 -- 0 : 33 ) , expressive string bends marking modal changes from C to C ♯ ( 0 : 47 -- 0 : 53 ) , power retransition ( 1 : 21 -- 1 : 24 ) , emotive vibrato ( 2 : 01 -- 2 : 07 ) , and a solo ( 1 : 55 -- 2 : 31 ) with a `` measured rise in intensity , rhythmic activity , tonal drive and registral climb '' . In October 1968 , Harrison reciprocated by co-writing `` Badge '' with Clapton and playing on Cream 's recording of the track . Released on Cream 's final album , Goodbye , `` Badge '' reflected Harrison 's pop sensibilities and helped Clapton transition from the heavy blues style and its reliance on extended soloing , and onto the more song - based approach that he and Harrison admired in the Band 's 1968 album Music from Big Pink . Release and reception ( edit ) Apple Records released The Beatles on 22 November 1968 . One of four Harrison compositions on the double album , `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' was sequenced as the penultimate track on side one in the LP format , between Lennon 's `` The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill '' and `` Happiness Is a Warm Gun '' . The song was issued as the B - side of `` Ob - La - Di , Ob - La - Da '' , a McCartney - written song that had also tested the Beatles ' patience during the White Album sessions . This single was an international hit , topping charts in Australia , Austria , Switzerland and West Germany , but was not released in Britain or the United States . LP cover of The Beatles . Some music critics have recognised `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' as a highlight of the Beatles ' 1968 double album . According to music critic Tim Riley , Harrison 's writing contributions `` regain ( ed ) the promise '' evident in his three songs on the Beatles ' 1966 album Revolver . Recalling the release in his 1977 book The Beatles Forever , Nicholas Schaffner said that , in returning to pop / rock songwriting after his excursions into the Indian classical style , Harrison 's four White Album songs `` firmly established him as a contender '' beside Lennon and McCartney . In Schaffner 's description , `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' was the most instantly popular of `` a quartet of more conventionally accessible pop songs ( written by Harrison ) that many felt were among the finest on the album '' . Among contemporary reviews , Jann Wenner of Rolling Stone said that `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' was `` one of George Harrison 's very best songs '' , and likened it to `` Blue Jay Way '' in that it `` recalls California , the simple Baja California beat , the dreamy words of the Los Angeles haze , the organic pace lapping around every room as if in invisible waves '' . Wenner found the lyrics `` slightly self - righteous and preaching '' , representing `` a general set of incidents , a message , like a sermon , impersonally directed to everyone '' , and concluded : `` I am willing to bet something substantial that the lead guitarist on this cut is Eric Clapton , yet another involution of the circular logic on which this song ( is ) so superbly constructed as a musical piece . '' In his review for the International Times , Barry Miles said the song was a `` great tune '' with `` nice hi - hats '' but a `` lifeless '' guitar part . Alan Smith of the NME credited the `` warm voice '' and `` very strong melody '' to McCartney and said that the track was one of the `` highlights ... moving into a slightly Hendrix thing '' and was bound to be `` Another hit for somebody '' . Three weeks later , Smith acknowledged that the singer and composer was in fact Harrison , and added : `` the words are evocative and the melody line is creeping into my mind to stay . '' Geoffrey Cannon wrote in The Guardian : `` George Harrison has seen the truth , and is anxious that we should see our truth . He 's a preacher , man of fire . When his songs speak of ' you , ' the address is direct . He achieves his character in ' While My Guitar Gently Weeps ' , which , with Phil Ochs 's ' Tape from California ' , is the first track I know that succeeds in making magnanimous love serious and touching . '' `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' became a staple of US rock radio during the early 1970s , on a par with songs such as `` Layla '' by Clapton 's short - lived band Derek and the Dominos , Led Zeppelin 's `` Stairway to Heaven '' and the Who 's `` Wo n't Get Fooled Again '' . In 1973 , it appeared on the Beatles ' double album compilation 1967 -- 1970 , as one of only three tracks representing the White Album . Capitol Records included it on The Best of George Harrison in 1976 ; a year before this , Harrison released a sequel to the song , titled `` This Guitar ( Ca n't Keep from Crying ) '' , which also served as the final single issued by Apple in its original incarnation . The Beatles ' recording also appeared on the soundtrack to Withnail and I , a 1987 comedy film set in late - 1960s London and produced by Harrison 's company HandMade Films . Despite his reluctance to record `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' , McCartney later identified it as one of his favourite selections on the 1995 -- 96 Anthology outtakes series , and he grouped the song with `` Something '' and `` Here Comes the Sun '' as candidates for Harrison 's `` greatest track '' . Starr paired it with `` Something '' as `` Two of the finest love songs ever written '' , adding : `` they 're really on a par with what John and Paul or anyone else of that time wrote . '' In their written tributes to Harrison following his death in November 2001 , Mick Jagger and Keith Richards each expressed their admiration for the song . Jagger said : `` It 's lovely , plaintive . Only a guitar player could write that ... '' Harrison Live performances ( edit ) Harrison and Clapton performing `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' at the 1987 Prince 's Trust Concert in London Harrison played `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' at every one of his comparatively rare concerts as a solo artist . Writing for Mojo in 2003 , Ashley Kahn attributed the track 's `` classic '' status to its evocation of `` a band falling out of harmony '' and , with regard to the enduring musical bond between Harrison and Clapton , its standing as `` their song '' . At Harrison 's Concert for Bangladesh , held at Madison Square Garden in New York on 1 August 1971 , Clapton performed the song on a Gibson Byrdland , a hollow - body guitar more suited to jazz or country music than rock . He later said that this was a poor decision and , as with his substandard playing at the event , one indicative of his descent into heroin addiction . The version performed by Harrison during his set at the 1987 Prince 's Trust Concert reunited him with Starr and Clapton , and features an extended coda with the guitars of Harrison and Clapton interweaving . On their 1991 tour of Japan , Harrison and Clapton performed `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' with additional background vocals . An edit combining parts of the 14 December and 17 December Tokyo Dome performances of the song was included on Harrison 's 1992 double album Live in Japan . Harrison also featured the song in the set list for his only other tour as a solo artist , a series of North American concerts over November -- December 1974 with Ravi Shankar . Harrison shared the lead guitarist 's role with Robben Ford , often extending the piece to eight minutes . While it was a popular inclusion in a set list that barely acknowledged Harrison 's past as a former Beatle , his alteration of some of the lyrics -- so that his guitar `` gently smiles '' and `` tries to smile '' -- disappointed many concert - goers and reviewers . Author Simon Leng comments that on Harrison 's return to Madison Square Garden towards the end of the tour , his playing on the song nevertheless received a standing ovation . Cover versions ( edit ) Canadian guitarist Jeff Healey covered `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' on his 1990 album Hell to Pay . Harrison participated in the recording , contributing on acoustic guitar and backing vocals . Also issued as a single , Healey 's version peaked at number 27 in Canada , number 85 in the UK and number 25 in New Zealand . During the Golden Jubilee of Elizabeth II concert at Buckingham Palace Garden on 3 June 2002 , McCartney performed the song with Clapton , as a tribute to Harrison . The performance appears on the DVD release Party at the Palace . On 29 November the same year , Clapton , McCartney , Starr , Dhani Harrison , Jeff Lynne and Marc Mann performed `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' at the Concert for George in memory of Harrison . This version showcased Clapton singing the lead vocal while McCartney provided background vocals and piano ; Mann played Clapton 's original fills and the mid-song solo . Author Ian Inglis writes that while Clapton was already `` permanently associated '' with `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' due to his presence on the White Album recording and the Concert for Bangladesh and Live in Japan versions , Clapton 's long , closing solo at the Concert for George contained `` perhaps the most expressive '' playing of all these versions . American musician Todd Rundgren covered `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' for the 2003 album Songs from the Material World : A Tribute to George Harrison . Rundgren said of his contribution to the multi-artist tribute : `` ( Before the Beatles ) , I 'd never heard the term ' lead guitarist . ' George created the job description for my first paying gig , the vocation that I 'm still lucky enough to practice today ... '' Johnny Loftus of AllMusic views the recording as one of the collection 's highlights , saying that Rundgren `` effortlessly replicates the grandeur '' of the Beatles ' track . As his personal tribute to Harrison , Peter Frampton released a version of the song on his 2003 album Now . In 2004 , when Harrison was inducted posthumously into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a solo artist , `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' was played in tribute by a large band that included Tom Petty , Lynne , Steve Winwood , Marc Mann and Dhani Harrison . The performance concluded with an extended guitar solo by Prince , who was also being inducted into the Hall of Fame . Among other cover versions , the song has also been recorded by guitarists such as Marc Ribot , Phish and Charlie Byrd , and on ukulele by Jake Shimabukuro . Toto did a cover version for their album Through the Looking Glass and in a live performance in Live in Amsterdam . Santana did a cover for his twentieth album Guitar Heaven : The Greatest Guitar Classics of All Time , in 2010 , featuring singer India Arie and cellist Yo - Yo Ma . Released as a single , it charted on Billboard 's Adult Contemporary . In 2016 , Regina Spektor performed the song for the soundtrack to the film Kubo and the Two Strings , accompanied by Kevin Kmetz on a shamisen . 2016 music video ( edit ) In June 2016 , Apple Corps and Cirque du Soleil released a music video for `` While My Guitar Gently Weeps '' . The video was created for the tenth anniversary re-staging of Cirque du Soleil 's Love theatrical production . The video was directed by Dandypunk , André Kasten and Leah Moyer . Ryan Reed , describing the clip for rollingstone.com , wrote that `` Dandypunk 's hand - drawn illustrations depict Harrison 's lyrics falling off the page into the air , transporting LOVE performer Eira Glover into a series of fantastical locations . Projection mapping -- and no CGI -- was used to create the clip . '' Personnel ( edit ) According to Ian MacDonald , Walter Everett and John Winn : White Album version George Harrison -- double - tracked vocals , backing vocal , acoustic guitar , Hammond organ John Lennon -- electric guitar with tremolo Paul McCartney -- harmony vocal , piano , bass guitar Ringo Starr -- drums , tambourine , castanets Eric Clapton -- lead guitar Anthology 3 version George Harrison -- vocals , acoustic guitar Paul McCartney -- organ Notes ( edit ) Jump up ^ Having contributed to `` Ski - ing '' on Harrison 's debut solo album , Wonderwall Music , in January 1968 , Clapton played on `` Sour Milk Sea '' , a song that Harrison wrote and produced for his Apple Records signing Jackie Lomax . Another Harrison composition from 1968 , `` Savoy Truffle '' , was inspired by Clapton 's love of chocolate . Jump up ^ Greene comments that `` Wilting Flowers '' was the title of Time magazine 's article summarising the year . By contrast , at the start of 1968 , Life had declared it `` the Year of the Guru '' , partly as a result of the Beatles ' championing of Eastern religion , and had featured the Maharishi on the cover of the magazine . Jump up ^ This version remained in EMI 's archives through the 1980s . It was first presented for public hearing when Abbey Road Studios ( formerly EMI Studios ) hosted The Beatles at Abbey Road in 1983 , at which point EMI reported that Harrison was keen that the song be released `` as soon as possible '' . When remixing the recording for inclusion on the planned Sessions compilation album in 1984 , however ( and as later heard on Anthology 3 ) , Geoff Emerick chose to loop and repeat Harrison 's concluding guitar phrase into a fadeout , and increased the volume of the harmonium . Jump up ^ In Ken Scott 's recollection , the need to manually work the ADT oscillation was a result of the Beatles ' impatience to use EMI 's new eight - track recording equipment .

You can help by adding to it . ( August 2018 ) The series begins revolving around Piper Chapman ( Taylor Schilling ) , a woman in her thirties living in New York City who is sentenced to 15 months in Litchfield Penitentiary , a minimum - security women 's federal prison in upstate New York . Chapman was convicted of transporting a suitcase full of drug money for her girlfriend Alex Vause ( Laura Prepon ) , an international drug smuggler . The offense had occurred 10 years prior to the start of the series and in that time Piper had moved on to a quiet , law - abiding life among New York 's upper middle class . Her sudden and unexpected indictment disrupts her relationships with her fiancé , family and friends . In prison , Chapman is reunited with Vause ( who named Chapman in her trial , resulting in Chapman 's arrest ) and they re-examine their relationship . Simultaneously , Chapman , along with the other inmates , attempt to grapple with prison 's numerous , inherent struggles . Episodes often feature flashbacks of significant events from various inmates ' and prison guards ' pasts . These flashbacks typically depict how an inmate came to be in prison or develop a character 's backstory . The prison is initially operated by the `` Federal Department of Corrections '' ( a fictional version of the Federal Bureau of Prisons ) , and was in a later season acquired by the Management & Correction Corporation ( MCC ) , a private prison company . The fifth season shows the prisoners revolting against the guards , wardens and the system after MCC 's failed handling of an inmate 's death at the hands of a guard in the fourth season . The inmate death had followed a peaceful protest and subsequent instigation of an inmate fight by another guard . Fueled by the conditions the inmates are forced to tolerate , as well as grudges against the prison guards , a three - day riot ensues , during which some inmates attempt to negotiate better living conditions and seek justice for the death of the inmate , while others pursue their own interests and entertainment , and a few seek no involvement in the riot . At the emergence of the riot , the guard who incited the fight in the prior season is critically shot by an inmate who took the gun the guard illegally brought into the prison . At the end of the season , SWAT raids the prison to end the riot and remove all inmates from the facility . During this raid , a correctional officer is fatally shot by a corrupt `` strike team '' , which then conspires to blame the guard 's death on inmates who hid in an underground bunker and had taken hostage of the guard . All inmates are transported to other prisons . The consequences of the riot are shown in the sixth season . A number of the inmates , including Chapman and Vause , are transported to Litchfield Maximum Security . Most of these inmates are interrogated , and several of them charged and sentenced for their involvement in the riot . In max , new inmates are introduced , alliances are made , and a gang - like war emerges between two prison blocks , spearheaded by a longstanding feud between two sisters and a grudge harbored by them toward a former maximum - security inmate who returned . Inmates who arrived from the minimum security prison are either caught up or willingly participate in the war between prison blocks . The season portrays further corruption and guard brutality . Throughout the series , it is shown how various forms of corruption , funding cuts , privatization of prison , overcrowding , guard brutality and racial discrimination , among other issues , affect the prisoners ' safety , health and well - being , the correctional officers , and the prison 's basic ability to fulfill its fundamental responsibilities and ethical obligations as a corrections institution . One of the show 's key conflicts involves the minimum - security prison 's Director of Human Activities , Joe Caputo , whose efforts and aims as a warden constantly conflict with the corporate interests of MCC , which acquired the facility when it was about to be shut down .

Burg as Detective Mark Bellamy ( season 6 ) Jason Altman as Herrmann ( seasons 5 -- 6 ) Production ( edit ) The series cast at The Paley Center For Media 's PaleyFest 2014 event honoring the show Show creator Jenji Kohan read Piper Kerman 's memoir after a friend sent it to her . She then set up a meeting with Kerman to pitch her on a TV adaptation , which she notes she `` screwed up '' as she spent most of the time asking Kerman about her experiences she described in the book rather than selling her on the show . This appealed to Kerman as it let her know that she was a fan and she signed off on the adaptation . Kohan would later go on to describe the main character , Piper Chapman , as a `` trojan horse '' for the series , allowing it to focus on characters whose demographics would not normally be represented on TV . In July 2011 , it was revealed that Netflix was in negotiations with Lionsgate for a 13 - episode TV adaptation of Kerman 's memoirs with Kohan as creator . In November 2011 , negotiations were finalized and the series had been greenlit . Kohan had initially wanted to cast Katie Holmes in the role of Piper Chapman , and met with the actress to discuss it , but Holmes had other commitments . Casting announcements began in August 2012 with Taylor Schilling , the first to be cast , as Piper Chapman , followed by Jason Biggs as Piper 's fiancé Larry Bloom . Laura Prepon and Yael Stone were next to join the series , as Alex Vause and Lorna Morello , respectively . Abigail Savage , who plays Gina , and Alysia Reiner , who plays Fig , had auditioned for role of Alex Vause . Prepon initially auditioned for Piper Chapman , however Kohan felt she would not worry about her ( in prison ) , noting a `` toughness and a presence to her that was n't right for the character . '' Kohan instead gave her the role of Alex. Stone had originally auditioned for the role of Nicky Nichols , but she was not considered `` tough enough '' for the character ; she was asked to audition for Lorna Morello instead . Likability was important for Morello , whom casting director Jen Euston deemed `` a very helpful , nice , sweet Italian girl . '' Natasha Lyonne was to audition for Alex , but was asked to read for the character Nicky Nichols ; `` ( Kohan knew ) she could do Nicky with her eyes closed . She was perfect , '' said Euston . Laverne Cox , a black transgender woman , was cast as Sophia Burset , a transgender character . The Advocate touted Orange Is the New Black as possibly the first women - in - prison narrative to cast a transgender woman for this type of role . Uzo Aduba read for the part of Janae Watson but was offered the character Suzanne `` Crazy Eyes '' Warren . Taryn Manning was offered the role of Tiffany `` Pennsatucky '' Doggett . This American Life host Ira Glass was offered a role as a public radio host , but he declined . The role instead went to Robert Stanton , who plays the fictional host Maury Kind . The series is set in a fictional prison in Litchfield , New York , which is a real town in upstate New York , but it does not have a federal penitentiary . The series began filming in the old Rockland Children 's Psychiatric Center in Rockland County , New York , on March 7 , 2013 . The title sequence features photos of real former female prisoners including Kerman herself . On June 27 , 2013 , prior to the series ' premiere , Netflix renewed the show for a second season consisting of 13 episodes . For the second season , Uzo Aduba , Taryn Manning , Danielle Brooks , and Natasha Lyonne were promoted to series regulars . Laura Prepon did not return as a series regular for a second season because of scheduling conflicts , but returned for season 3 as a regular . On May 5 , 2014 , the series was renewed for a third season , as revealed by actress Laura Prepon . For the third season , several actors were promoted to series regulars , including Selenis Leyva , Adrienne C. Moore , Dascha Polanco , Nick Sandow , Yael Stone , and Samira Wiley . Both Jason Biggs and Pablo Schreiber were confirmed as not returning for the third season , but Schreiber appeared in the 10th episode of the third season . The series was renewed for a fourth season on April 15 , 2015 , prior to its third - season release . For the fourth season , Jackie Cruz and Lea DeLaria were promoted to series regulars ; with Elizabeth Rodriguez also being promoted by the season 's sixth episode . On February 5 , 2016 , the series was renewed for a fifth , sixth and seventh season . In season six , Dale Soules , Laura Gómez , and Matt Peters were promoted to series regulars . On October 17 , 2018 , Netflix announced that the seventh season would be the series ' last and would be released in 2019 .

when did the us military first began hiring civilian employees
United States federal civil Service - Wikipedia United States federal civil Service Remarks by FDR in 1944 at Union Station , thanking government workers for helping win the war The United States federal civil service is the civilian workforce ( i.e. , non-elected and non-military , public sector employees ) of the United States federal government 's departments and agencies . The federal civil service was established in 1871 ( 5 U.S.C. § 2101 ) . U.S. state and local government entities often have competitive civil service systems that are modeled on the national system , in varying degrees . According to the Office of Personnel Management , as of December 2011 , there were approximately 2.79 million civil servants employed by the U.S. government . This includes employees in the departments and agencies run by any of the three branches government ( the executive branch , legislative branch , and judicial branch ) , such as over 600,000 employees in the U.S. Postal Service . Contents 1 Career employees and political appointees 2 History 3 Federal agencies 4 Pay systems 5 Employment by agency 6 U.S. Civil Service Commission 7 Civil Service Reform Act of 1978 8 Reforms under the Trump administration 9 Civil servants in literature 10 See also 11 References 12 External links Career employees and political appointees ( edit ) The majority of civil service positions are classified as competitive service , meaning employees are selected based on merit after a competitive hiring process for positions that are open to all applicants . The Senior Executive Service ( SES ) is the classification for non-competitive , senior leadership positions filled by career employees or political appointments ( e.g. , Cabinet members , ambassadors , etc . ) . Excepted service positions ( also known as unclassified service ) are non-competitive jobs in certain federal agencies with security and intelligence functions ( e.g. , the CIA , FBI , State Department , etc . ) that are authorized to create their own hiring policies and are not subject to most appointment , pay , and classification laws . History ( edit ) Main article : U.S. Civil Service Reform In the early 19th century , positions in the federal government were held at the pleasure of the president -- a person could be fired at any time . The spoils system meant that jobs were used to support the American political parties , though this was gradually changed by the Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act of 1883 and subsequent laws . By 1909 , almost two - thirds of the U.S. federal workforce was appointed based on merit , that is , qualifications measured by tests . Certain senior civil service positions , including some heads of diplomatic missions and executive agencies , are filled by political appointees . Under the Hatch Act of 1939 , civil servants are not allowed to engage in political activities while performing their duties . In some cases , an outgoing administration will give its political appointees positions with civil service protection in order to prevent them from being fired by the new administration ; this is called `` burrowing '' in civil service jargon . Federal agencies ( edit ) Main article : List of United States federal agencies Employees in the civil services work under one of the independent agencies or one of the 15 executive departments . In addition to departments , there are a number of staff organizations grouped into the Executive Office of the President . These include the White House staff , the National Security Council , the Office of Management and Budget , the Council of Economic Advisers , the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative , the Office of National Drug Control Policy and the Office of Science and Technology Policy . There are also independent agencies such as the United States Postal Service , the National Aeronautics and Space Administration ( NASA ) , the Central Intelligence Agency ( CIA ) , the Environmental Protection Agency ( EPA ) , and the United States Agency for International Development ( USAID ) . In addition , there are government - owned corporations such as the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ( FDIC ) and the National Railroad Passenger Corporation . There were 456 federal agencies in 2009 . Pay systems ( edit ) Main articles : General Schedule , Federal Wage System , and Senior Executive Service The pay system of the United States government civil service has evolved into a complex set of pay systems that include principally the General Schedule ( GS ) for white - collar employees , Federal Wage System ( FWS ) for blue - collar employees , Senior Executive System ( SES ) for Executive - level employees , Foreign Service Schedule ( FS ) for members of the Foreign Service and more than twelve alternate pay systems that are referred to as alternate or experimental pay systems such as the first experimental system China Lake Demonstration Project . The current system began as the Classification Act of 1923 and was refined into law with the Classification Act of 1949 . These acts that provide the foundation of the current system have been amended through executive orders and through published amendments in the Federal Register that sets for approved changes in the regulatory structure of the federal pay system . The common goal among all pay systems is to achieve the goal of paying equitable salaries to all involved workers regardless of system , group or classification . This is referred to as pay equity or ( `` equal pay for equal work '' ) . Select careers in high demand may be subject to a special rate table , which can pay above the standard GS tables . These careers include certain engineering disciplines and patent examiners . The General Schedule ( GS ) includes white collar workers at levels 1 through 15 , most professional , technical , administrative , and clerical positions in the federal civil service . The Federal Wage System or Wage Grade ( WG ) schedule includes most federal blue - collar workers . As of September 2004 , 71 % of federal civilian employees were paid under the GS ; the remaining 29 % were paid under other systems such as the Federal Wage System for federal blue - collar civilian employees , the Senior Executive Service / Senior Level and the Executive Schedule for high - ranking federal employees , and the pay schedules for the United States Postal Service and the Foreign Service . In addition , some federal agencies -- such as the United States Securities and Exchange Commission , the Federal Reserve System , and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation -- have their own unique pay schedules . All federal employees in the GS system receive a base pay that is adjusted for locality . Locality pay varies , but is at least 10 % of base salary in all parts of the United States . The following salary ranges represent the lowest and highest possible amounts a person can earn in base salary , without earning over-time pay or receiving a merit - based bonus . Actual salary ranges differ adjusted for increased locality pay ( for instance a GS - 9 , step 1 in rural Arkansas may start at $50,598 versus $61,084 in San Jose , California ) , but all base salaries lie within the parameters of the following ranges ( effective January , 2018 ) : Pay grade GS - 1 GS - 2 GS - 3 GS - 4 GS - 5 GS - 6 GS - 7 GS - 8 GS - 9 GS - 10 GS - 11 GS - 12 GS - 13 GS - 14 GS - 15 Lowest step ( 1 ) $ 18,785 $ 21,121 $ 23,045 $ 25,871 $ 28,945 $ 32,264 $ 35,854 $ 39,707 $ 43,857 $ 48,297 $ 53,062 $ 63,600 $ 75,628 $ 89,370 $ 105,123 Highest step ( 10 ) $ 23,502 $ 26,585 $ 29,957 $ 33,629 $ 37,630 $ 41,939 $ 46,609 $ 51,623 $ 57,015 $ 62,787 $ 68,983 $ 78,355 $ 98,317 $116,181 $136,659 Source : U.S. Office of Personnel Management , 2018 . Nineteen percent of federal employees earned salaries of $100,000 or more in 2009 . The average federal worker 's pay was $71,208 compared with $40,331 in the private sector , although under Office of Management and Budget Circular A-76 , most menial or lower paying jobs have been outsourced to private contractors . In 2010 , there were 82,034 workers , 3.9 % of the federal workforce , making more than $150,000 annually , compared to 7,240 in 2005 . GS salaries are capped by law so that they do not exceed the salary for Executive Schedule IV positions . The increase in civil servants making more than $150,000 resulted mainly from an increase in Executive Schedule salary approved during the Administration of George W. Bush , which raised the salary cap for senior GS employees slightly above the $150,000 threshold . Basic pay rates for Senior Executive Service ( i.e. non-Presidentially appointed civil servants above GS - 15 ) will range from $119,554 to $179,700 in 2012 . Employment by Agency ( edit ) As of January 2009 , the Federal Government , excluding the Postal Service and soldiers , employed about 2 million civilian workers . This article needs to be updated .

The United States Civil Service Commission was created by the Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act , which was passed into law on January 16 , 1883 . The commission was created to administer the civil service of the United States federal government . The law required federal government employees to be selected through competitive exams and basis of merit ; it also prevented elected officials and political appointees from firing civil servants , removing civil servants from the influences of political patronage and partisan behavior . However , the law did not apply to state and municipal governments . Effective January 1 , 1978 , the commission was renamed the Office of Personnel Management under the provisions of Reorganization Plan No. 2 of 1978 ( 43 F.R. 36037 , 92 Stat. 3783 ) and the Civil Service Reform Act of 1978 . The United States Civil service exams have since been abolished for many positions , since statistics show that they do not accurately allow hiring of minorities according to the affirmative action guidelines . Civil Service Reform Act of 1978 ( edit ) Main article : Civil Service Reform Act of 1978 This act abolished the United States Civil Service Commission and created the U.S. Office of Personnel Management ( OPM ) , the Federal Labor Relations Authority ( FLRA ) and the U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board ( MSPB ) . OPM primarily provides management guidance to the various agencies of the executive branch and issues regulations that control federal human resources . FLRA oversees the rights of federal employees to form collective bargaining units ( unions ) and to engage in collective bargaining with agencies . MSPB conducts studies of the federal civil service and mainly hears the appeals of federal employees who are disciplined or otherwise separated from their positions . This act was an effort to replace incompetent officials . Reforms under the Trump administration ( edit ) President Donald Trump signed three executive orders designed to enforce merit - system principles in the civil service and to improve efficiency , transparency , and accountability in the federal government . According to reports , the executive orders are expected to make civil service more accountable and are supposed to benefit taxpayers and federal workers alike .

how many moles of atp are produced in aerobic respiration
Cellular respiration - wikipedia Cellular respiration Jump to : navigation , search This article needs additional citations for verification . Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources . Unsourced material may be challenged and removed . ( September 2014 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) Typical eukaryotic cell Cellular respiration is a set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate ( ATP ) , and then release waste products . The reactions involved in respiration are catabolic reactions , which break large molecules into smaller ones , releasing energy in the process , as weak so - called `` high - energy '' bonds are replaced by stronger bonds in the products . Respiration is one of the key ways a cell releases chemical energy to fuel cellular activity . Cellular respiration is considered an exothermic redox reaction which releases heat . The overall reaction occurs in a series of biochemical steps , most of which are redox reactions themselves . Although cellular respiration is technically a combustion reaction , it clearly does not resemble one when it occurs in a living cell because of the slow release of energy from the series of reactions . Nutrients that are commonly used by animal and plant cells in respiration include sugar , amino acids and fatty acids , and the most common oxidizing agent ( electron acceptor ) is molecular oxygen ( O ) . The chemical energy stored in ATP ( its third phosphate group is weakly bonded to the rest of the molecule and is cheaply broken allowing stronger bonds to form , thereby transferring energy for use by the cell ) can then be used to drive processes requiring energy , including biosynthesis , locomotion or transportation of molecules across cell membranes . Contents ( hide ) 1 Aerobic respiration 1.1 Aerobic respiration summed up 1.2 Glycolysis 1.3 Oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate 1.4 Citric acid cycle 1.5 Oxidative phosphorylation 2 Efficiency of ATP production 3 Fermentation 4 Anaerobic respiration 5 See also 6 References 7 External links Aerobic respiration Aerobic respiration ( red arrows ) is the main means by which both fungi and animals utilize chemical energy in the form of organic compounds that were previously created through photosynthesis ( green arrow ) . Aerobic respiration requires oxygen ( O ) in order to create ATP . Although carbohydrates , fats , and proteins are consumed as reactants , it is the preferred method of pyruvate breakdown in glycolysis and requires that pyruvate enter the mitochondria in order to be fully oxidized by the Krebs cycle . The products of this process are carbon dioxide and water , but the energy transferred is used to break bonds in ADP as the third phosphate group is added to form ATP ( adenosine triphosphate ) , by substrate - level phosphorylation , NADH and FADH Simplified reaction : C H O ( s ) + 6 O ( g ) → 6 CO ( g ) + 6 H O ( l ) + heat ΔG = − 2880 kJ per mol of C H O The negative ΔG indicates that the reaction can occur spontaneously . The potential of NADH and FADH is converted to more ATP through an electron transport chain with oxygen as the `` terminal electron acceptor '' . Most of the ATP produced by aerobic cellular respiration is made by oxidative phosphorylation . This works by the energy released in the consumption of pyruvate being used to create a chemiosmotic potential by pumping protons across a membrane . This potential is then used to drive ATP synthase and produce ATP from ADP and a phosphate group . Biology textbooks often state that 38 ATP molecules can be made per oxidised glucose molecule during cellular respiration ( 2 from glycolysis , 2 from the Krebs cycle , and about 34 from the electron transport system ) . However , this maximum yield is never quite reached because of losses due to leaky membranes as well as the cost of moving pyruvate and ADP into the mitochondrial matrix , and current estimates range around 29 to 30 ATP per glucose . Aerobic metabolism is up to 15 times more efficient than anaerobic metabolism ( which yields 2 molecules ATP per 1 molecule glucose ) . However some anaerobic organisms , such as methanogens are able to continue with anaerobic respiration , yielding more ATP by using other inorganic molecules ( not oxygen ) as final electron acceptors in the electron transport chain . They share the initial pathway of glycolysis but aerobic metabolism continues with the Krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation . The post-glycolytic reactions take place in the mitochondria in eukaryotic cells , and in the cytoplasm in prokaryotic cells . Aerobic respiration summed up 1 . Glycolysis : -- - 2 ATPs + Glucose → 2 Pyruvic Acid + 4 Hydrogen + 4 ATPs 2 . Formation of Acetyl CoA : -- - 2 Pyruvic Acid + 2 CoA → 2 Acetyl CoA + 2 Carbon Dioxide + 2 Hydrogen 3 . Krebs Cycle : -- - 2 Acetyl CoA + 3 O2 → 6 Hydrogen + 4 Carbon Dioxide + 2 ATPs 4 . Electron Transport System : -- - 12 Hydrogen + 3 O2 → 6 Water + 32 ATPs Overall Reaction : -- - Glucose + 6 O2 → 6 Carbon Dioxide + 6 Water + 36 ATPs Glycolysis Out of the cytoplasm it goes into the Krebs cycle with the acetyl CoA . It then mixes with CO and makes 2 ATP , NADH , and FADH . From there the NADH and FADH go into the NADH reductase , which produces the enzyme . The NADH pulls the enzyme 's electrons to send through the electron transport chain . The electron transport chain pulls H ions through the chain . From the electron transport chain , the released hydrogen ions make ADP for an end result of 32 ATP . O attracts itself to the left over electron to make water . Lastly , ATP leaves through the ATP channel and out of the mitochondria . Main article : Glycolysis Glycolysis is a metabolic pathway that takes place in the cytosol of cells in all living organisms . This pathway can function with or without the presence of oxygen . In humans , aerobic conditions produce pyruvate and anaerobic conditions produce lactate . In aerobic conditions , the process converts one molecule of glucose into two molecules of pyruvate ( pyruvic acid ) , generating energy in the form of two net molecules of ATP . Four molecules of ATP per glucose are actually produced , however , two are consumed as part of the preparatory phase . The initial phosphorylation of glucose is required to increase the reactivity ( decrease its stability ) in order for the molecule to be cleaved into two pyruvate molecules by the enzyme aldolase . During the pay - off phase of glycolysis , four phosphate groups are transferred to ADP by substrate - level phosphorylation to make four ATP , and two NADH are produced when the pyruvate are oxidized . The overall reaction can be expressed this way : Glucose + 2 NAD + 2 P + 2 ADP → 2 pyruvate + 2 NADH + 2 ATP + 2 H + 2 H O + heat Starting with glucose , 1 ATP is used to donate a phosphate to glucose to produce glucose 6 - phosphate . Glycogen can be converted into glucose 6 - phosphate as well with the help of glycogen phosphorylase . During energy metabolism , glucose 6 - phosphate becomes fructose 6 - phosphate . An additional ATP is used to phosphorylate fructose 6 - phosphate into fructose 1 , 6 - disphosphate by the help of phosphofructokinase . Fructose 1 , 6 - diphosphate then splits into two phosphorylated molecules with three carbon chains which later degrades into pyruvate . Glycolysis can be literally translated as `` sugar splitting '' . Oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate Main article : Pyruvate decarboxylation Pyruvate is oxidized to acetyl - CoA and CO by the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex ( PDC ) . The PDC contains multiple copies of three enzymes and is located in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells and in the cytosol of prokaryotes . In the conversion of pyruvate to acetyl - CoA , one molecule of NADH and one molecule of CO is formed . Citric acid cycle Main article : Citric acid cycle This is also called the Krebs cycle or the tricarboxylic acid cycle . When oxygen is present , acetyl - CoA is produced from the pyruvate molecules created from glycolysis . Once acetyl - CoA is formed , aerobic or anaerobic respiration can occur . When oxygen is present , the mitochondria will undergo aerobic respiration which leads to the Krebs cycle . However , if oxygen is not present , fermentation of the pyruvate molecule will occur . In the presence of oxygen , when acetyl - CoA is produced , the molecule then enters the citric acid cycle ( Krebs cycle ) inside the mitochondrial matrix , and is oxidized to CO while at the same time reducing NAD to NADH . NADH can be used by the electron transport chain to create further ATP as part of oxidative phosphorylation . To fully oxidize the equivalent of one glucose molecule , two acetyl - CoA must be metabolized by the Krebs cycle . Two waste products , H O and CO , are created during this cycle . The citric acid cycle is an 8 - step process involving 18 different enzymes and co-enzymes . During the cycle , acetyl - CoA ( 2 carbons ) + oxaloacetate ( 4 carbons ) yields citrate ( 6 carbons ) , which is rearranged to a more reactive form called isocitrate ( 6 carbons ) . Isocitrate is modified to become α - ketoglutarate ( 5 carbons ) , succinyl - CoA , succinate , fumarate , malate , and , finally , oxaloacetate . The net gain of high - energy compounds from one cycle is 3 NADH , 1 FADH , and 1 GTP ; the GTP may subsequently be used to produce ATP . Thus , the total yield from 1 glucose molecule ( 2 pyruvate molecules ) is 6 NADH , 2 FADH , and 2 ATP . Oxidative phosphorylation Main articles : Oxidative phosphorylation , Electron transport chain , Electrochemical gradient , and ATP synthase In eukaryotes , oxidative phosphorylation occurs in the mitochondrial cristae . It comprises the electron transport chain that establishes a proton gradient ( chemiosmotic potential ) across the boundary of inner membrane by oxidizing the NADH produced from the Krebs cycle . ATP is synthesized by the ATP synthase enzyme when the chemiosmotic gradient is used to drive the phosphorylation of ADP . The electrons are finally transferred to exogenous oxygen and , with the addition of two protons , water is formed . Efficiency of ATP production The table below describes the reactions involved when one glucose molecule is fully oxidized into carbon dioxide . It is assumed that all the reduced coenzymes are oxidized by the electron transport chain and used for oxidative phosphorylation . Step coenzyme yield ATP yield Source of ATP Glycolysis preparatory phase − 2 Phosphorylation of glucose and fructose 6 - phosphate uses two ATP from the cytoplasm . Glycolysis pay - off phase Substrate - level phosphorylation 2 NADH 3 or 5 Oxidative phosphorylation : Each NADH produces net 1.5 ATP ( instead of usual 2.5 ) due to NADH transport over the mitochondrial membrane Oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate 2 NADH 5 Oxidative phosphorylation Krebs cycle Substrate - level phosphorylation 6 NADH 15 Oxidative phosphorylation 2 FADH Oxidative phosphorylation <Td_colspan="2"> Total yield 30 or 32 ATP From the complete oxidation of one glucose molecule to carbon dioxide and oxidation of all the reduced coenzymes . Although there is a theoretical yield of 38 ATP molecules per glucose during cellular respiration , such conditions are generally not realized because of losses such as the cost of moving pyruvate ( from glycolysis ) , phosphate , and ADP ( substrates for ATP synthesis ) into the mitochondria . All are actively transported using carriers that utilize the stored energy in the proton electrochemical gradient . Pyruvate is taken up by a specific , low Km transporter to bring it into the mitochondrial matrix for oxidation by the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex . The phosphate carrier ( PiC ) mediates the electroneutral exchange ( antiport ) of phosphate ( H PO ; P ) for OH or symport of phosphate and protons ( H ) across the inner membrane , and the driving force for moving phosphate ions into the mitochondria is the proton motive force . The ATP - ADP translocase ( also called adenine nucleotide translocase , ANT ) is an antiporter and exchanges ADP and ATP across the inner membrane . The driving force is due to the ATP ( − 4 ) having a more negative charge than the ADP ( − 3 ) , and thus it dissipates some of the electrical component of the proton electrochemical gradient . The outcome of these transport processes using the proton electrochemical gradient is that more than 3 H are needed to make 1 ATP . Obviously this reduces the theoretical efficiency of the whole process and the likely maximum is closer to 28 -- 30 ATP molecules . In practice the efficiency may be even lower because the inner membrane of the mitochondria is slightly leaky to protons . Other factors may also dissipate the proton gradient creating an apparently leaky mitochondria . An uncoupling protein known as thermogenin is expressed in some cell types and is a channel that can transport protons . When this protein is active in the inner membrane it short circuits the coupling between the electron transport chain and ATP synthesis . The potential energy from the proton gradient is not used to make ATP but generates heat . This is particularly important in brown fat thermogenesis of newborn and hibernating mammals . Stoichiometry of aerobic respiration and most known fermentation types in eucaryotic cell . Numbers in circles indicate counts of carbon atoms in molecules , C6 is glucose C H O , C1 carbon dioxide CO . Mitochondrial outer membrane is omitted . According to some of newer sources the ATP yield during aerobic respiration is not 36 -- 38 , but only about 30 -- 32 ATP molecules / 1 molecule of glucose , because : ATP : NADH + H and ATP : FADH ratios during the oxidative phosphorylation appear to be not 3 and 2 , but 2.5 and 1.5 respectively . Unlike in the substrate - level phosphorylation , the stoichiometry here is difficult to establish . ATP synthase produces 1 ATP / 3 H. However the exchange of matrix ATP for cytosolic ADP and Pi ( antiport with OH or symport with H ) mediated by ATP -- ADP translocase and phosphate carrier consumes 1 H / 1 ATP as a result of regeneration of the transmembrane potential changed during this transfer , so the net ratio is 1 ATP : 4 H . The mitochondrial electron transport chain proton pump transfers across the inner membrane 10 H / 1 NADH + H ( 4 + 2 + 4 ) or 6 H / 1 FADH ( 2 + 4 ) . So the final stoichiometry is 1 NADH + H : 10 H : 10 / 4 ATP = 1 NADH + H : 2.5 ATP 1 FADH : 6 H : 6 / 4 ATP = 1 FADH : 1.5 ATP ATP : NADH + H coming from glycolysis ratio during the oxidative phosphorylation is 1.5 , as for FADH , if hydrogen atoms ( 2H + 2e ) are transferred from cytosolic NADH + H to mitochondrial FAD by the glycerol phosphate shuttle located in the inner mitochondrial membrane . 2.5 in case of malate - aspartate shuttle transferring hydrogen atoms from cytosolic NADH + H to mitochondrial NAD So finally we have , per molecule of glucose Substrate - level phosphorylation : 2 ATP from glycolysis + 2 ATP ( directly GTP ) from Krebs cycle Oxidative phosphorylation 2 NADH + H from glycolysis : 2 × 1.5 ATP ( if glycerol phosphate shuttle transfers hydrogen atoms ) or 2 × 2.5 ATP ( malate - aspartate shuttle ) 2 NADH + H from the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate and 6 from Krebs cycle : 8 × 2.5 ATP 2 FADH from the Krebs cycle : 2 × 1.5 ATP Altogether this gives 4 + 3 ( or 5 ) + 20 + 3 = 30 ( or 32 ) ATP per molecule of glucose The total ATP yield in ethanol or lactic acid fermentation is only 2 molecules coming from glycolysis , because pyruvate is not transferred to the mitochondrion and finally oxidized to the carbon dioxide ( CO ) , but reduced to ethanol or lactic acid in the cytoplasm . Fermentation Main article : Fermentation Without oxygen , pyruvate ( pyruvic acid ) is not metabolized by cellular respiration but undergoes a process of fermentation . The pyruvate is not transported into the mitochondrion , but remains in the cytoplasm , where it is converted to waste products that may be removed from the cell . This serves the purpose of oxidizing the electron carriers so that they can perform glycolysis again and removing the excess pyruvate . Fermentation oxidizes NADH to NAD+ so it can be re-used in glycolysis . In the absence of oxygen , fermentation prevents the buildup of NADH in the cytoplasm and provides NAD+ for glycolysis . This waste product varies depending on the organism . In skeletal muscles , the waste product is lactic acid . This type of fermentation is called lactic acid fermentation . In strenuous exercise , when energy demands exceed energy supply , the respiratory chain can not process all of the hydrogen atoms joined by NADH . During anaerobic glycolysis , NAD+ regenerates when pairs of hydrogen combine with pyruvate to form lactate . Lactate formation is catalyzed by lactate dehydrogenase in a reversible reaction . Lactate can also be used as an indirect precursor for liver glycogen . During recovery , when oxygen becomes available , NAD+ attaches to hydrogen from lactate to form ATP . In yeast , the waste products are ethanol and carbon dioxide . This type of fermentation is known as alcoholic or ethanol fermentation . The ATP generated in this process is made by substrate - level phosphorylation , which does not require oxygen . Fermentation is less efficient at using the energy from glucose : only 2 ATP are produced per glucose , compared to the 38 ATP per glucose nominally produced by aerobic respiration . This is because the waste products of fermentation still contain chemical potential energy that can be released by oxidation . Ethanol , for example , can be burned in an internal combustion engine like gasoline . Glycolytic ATP , however , is created more quickly . For prokaryotes to continue a rapid growth rate when they are shifted from an aerobic environment to an anaerobic environment , they must increase the rate of the glycolytic reactions . For multicellular organisms , during short bursts of strenuous activity , muscle cells use fermentation to supplement the ATP production from the slower aerobic respiration , so fermentation may be used by a cell even before the oxygen levels are depleted , as is the case in sports that do not require athletes to pace themselves , such as sprinting . Anaerobic respiration Main article : Anaerobic respiration Cellular respiration is the process by which biological fuels are oxidised in the presence of an inorganic electron acceptor ( such as oxygen ) to produce large amounts of energy , to drive the bulk production of ATP . Anaerobic respiration is used by some microorganisms in which neither oxygen ( aerobic respiration ) nor pyruvate derivatives ( fermentation ) is the final electron acceptor . Rather , an inorganic acceptor such as sulfate or nitrate is used . Such organisms are typically found in unusual places such as underwater caves or near hydrothermal vents at the bottom of the ocean .

where does glycolysis occur in a bacterial cell
Glycolysis - wikipedia Glycolysis Jump to : navigation , search Glucose G6P F6P F1 , 6BP GADP DHAP 1 , 3BPG 3PG 2PG PEP Pyruvate HK PGI PFK ALDO TPI GAPDH PGK PGM ENO PK Glycolysis The metabolic pathway of glycolysis converts glucose to pyruvate by via a series of intermediate metabolites . Each chemical modification ( red box ) is performed by a different enzyme . Steps 1 and 3 consume ATP ( blue ) and steps 7 and 10 produce ATP ( yellow ) . Since steps 6 - 10 occur twice per glucose molecule , this leads to a net production of ATP . Summary of aerobic respiration Glycolysis ( from glycose , an older term for glucose + - lysis degradation ) is the metabolic pathway that converts glucose C H O , into pyruvate , CH COCOO + H. The free energy released in this process is used to form the high - energy molecules ATP ( adenosine triphosphate ) and NADH ( reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide ) . Glycolysis is a determined sequence of ten enzyme - catalyzed reactions . The intermediates provide entry points to glycolysis . For example , most monosaccharides , such as fructose and galactose , can be converted to one of these intermediates . The intermediates may also be directly useful . For example , the intermediate dihydroxyacetone phosphate ( DHAP ) is a source of the glycerol that combines with fatty acids to form fat . Glycolysis is an oxygen independent metabolic pathway , meaning that it does not use molecular oxygen ( i.e. atmospheric oxygen ) for any of its reactions . However the products of glycolysis ( pyruvate and NADH + H ) are sometimes metabolized using atmospheric oxygen . When molecular oxygen is used for the metabolism of the products of glycolysis the process is usually referred to as aerobic , whereas if no oxygen is used the process is said to be anaerobic . Thus , glycolysis occurs , with variations , in nearly all organisms , both aerobic and anaerobic . The wide occurrence of glycolysis indicates that it is one of the most ancient metabolic pathways . Indeed , the reactions that constitute glycolysis and its parallel pathway , the pentose phosphate pathway , occur metal - catalyzed under the oxygen - free conditions of the Archean oceans , also in the absence of enzymes . Glycolysis could thus have originated from chemical constraints of the prebiotic world . Glycolysis occurs in most organisms in the cytosol of the cell . The most common type of glycolysis is the Embden -- Meyerhof -- Parnas ( EMP pathway ) , which was discovered by Gustav Embden , Otto Meyerhof , and Jakub Karol Parnas . Glycolysis also refers to other pathways , such as the Entner -- Doudoroff pathway and various heterofermentative and homofermentative pathways . However , the discussion here will be limited to the Embden -- Meyerhof -- Parnas pathway . The entire glycolysis pathway can be separated into two phases : The Preparatory / Investment Phase -- wherein ATP is consumed The Pay Off Phase -- wherein ATP is produced .

Atom balance is maintained by the two phosphate ( P ) groups : Each exists in the form of a hydrogen phosphate anion ( HPO ) , dissociating to contribute 2 H overall Each liberates an oxygen atom when it binds to an ADP ( adenosine diphosphate ) molecule , contributing 2 O overall Charges are balanced by the difference between ADP and ATP . In the cellular environment , all three hydroxyl groups of ADP dissociate into − O and H , giving ADP , and this ion tends to exist in an ionic bond with Mg , giving ADPMg . ATP behaves identically except that it has four hydroxyl groups , giving ATPMg . When these differences along with the true charges on the two phosphate groups are considered together , the net charges of − 4 on each side are balanced . For simple fermentations , the metabolism of one molecule of glucose to two molecules of pyruvate has a net yield of two molecules of ATP . Most cells will then carry out further reactions to ' repay ' the used NAD and produce a final product of ethanol or lactic acid . Many bacteria use inorganic compounds as hydrogen acceptors to regenerate the NAD . Cells performing aerobic respiration synthesize much more ATP , but not as part of glycolysis . These further aerobic reactions use pyruvate and NADH + H from glycolysis . Eukaryotic aerobic respiration produces approximately 34 additional molecules of ATP for each glucose molecule , however most of these are produced by a vastly different mechanism to the substrate - level phosphorylation in glycolysis . The lower - energy production , per glucose , of anaerobic respiration relative to aerobic respiration , results in greater flux through the pathway under hypoxic ( low - oxygen ) conditions , unless alternative sources of anaerobically oxidizable substrates , such as fatty acids , are found . ( show ) Metabolism of common monosaccharides , including glycolysis , gluconeogenesis , glycogenesis and glycogenolysis History ( edit ) The pathway of glycolysis as it is known today took almost 100 years to fully discover . The combined results of many smaller experiments were required in order to understand the pathway as a whole . The first steps in understanding glycolysis began in the nineteenth century with the wine industry . For economic reasons , the French wine industry sought to investigate why wine sometime turned distasteful , instead of fermenting into alcohol . French scientist Louis Pasteur researched this issue during the 1850s , and the results of his experiments began the long road to elucidating the pathway of glycolysis . His experiments showed that fermentation occurs by the action of living microorganisms ; and that yeast 's glucose consumption decreased under aerobic conditions of fermentation , in comparison to anaerobic conditions ( the Pasteur Effect ) . Eduard Buchner . Discovered cell - free fermentation . While Pasteur 's experiments were groundbreaking , insight into the component steps of glycolysis were provided by the non-cellular fermentation experiments of Eduard Buchner during the 1890s . Buchner demonstrated that the conversion of glucose to ethanol was possible using a non-living extract of yeast ( due to the action of enzymes in the extract ) . This experiment not only revolutionized biochemistry , but also allowed later scientists to analyze this pathway in a more controlled lab setting . In a series of experiments ( 1905 - 1911 ) , scientists Arthur Harden and William Young discovered more pieces of glycolysis ... They discovered the regulatory effects of ATP on glucose consumption during alcohol fermentation . They also shed light on the role of one compound as a glycolysis intermediate : fructose 1 , 6 - bisphosphate . The elucidation of fructose 1 , 6 - diphosphate was accomplished by measuring CO levels when yeast juice was incubated with glucose . CO production increased rapidly then slowed down . Harden and Young noted that this process would restart if an inorganic phosphate ( Pi ) was added to the mixture . Harden and Young deduced that this process produced organic phosphate esters , and further experiments allowed them to extract fructose diphosphate ( F - 1 , 6 - DP ) . Arthur Harden and William Young along with Nick Sheppard determined , in a second experiment , that a heat - sensitive high - molecular - weight subcellular fraction ( the enzymes ) and a heat - insensitive low - molecular - weight cytoplasm fraction ( ADP , ATP and NAD and other cofactors ) are required together for fermentation to proceed . This experiment begun by observing that dialyzed ( purified ) yeast juice could not ferment or even create a sugar phosphate . This mixture was rescued with the addition of undialyzed yeast extract that had been boiled . Boiling the yeast extract renders all proteins inactive ( as it denatures them ) . The ability of boiled extract plus dialyzed juice to complete fermentation suggests that the cofactors were non-protein in character . Otto Meyerhof . One of the main scientists involved in completing the puzzle of glycolysis In the 1920s Otto Meyerhof was able to link together some of the many individual pieces of glycolysis discovered by Buchner , Harden , and Young . Meyerhof and his team was able to extract different glycolytic enzymes from muscle tissue , and combine them to artificially create the pathway from glycogen to lactic acid . In one paper , Meyerhof and scientist Renate Junowicz - Kockolaty investigated the reaction that splits fructose 1 , 6 - diphosohate into the two triose phosphates . Previous work proposed that the split occurred via 1 , 3 - diphosphoglyceraldehye plus an oxidizing enzyme and cozymase . Meyerhoff and Junowicz found that the equilibrium constant for the isomerase and aldoses reaction were not affected by inorganic phosphates or any other cozymase or oxidizing enzymes . They further removed diphosphoglyceraldehyde as a possible intermediate in glycolysis . With all of these pieces available by the 1930s , Gustav Embden proposed a detailed , step - by - step outline of that pathway we now know as glycolysis . The biggest difficulties in determining the intricacies of the pathway were due to the very short lifetime and low steady - state concentrations of the intermediates of the fast glycolytic reactions . By the 1940s , Meyerhof , Embden and many other biochemists had finally completed the puzzle of glycolysis . The understanding of the isolated pathway has been expanded in the subsequent decades , to include further details of its regulation and integration with other metabolic pathways .

This reaction consumes ATP , but it acts to keep the glucose concentration low , promoting continuous transport of glucose into the cell through the plasma membrane transporters . In addition , it blocks the glucose from leaking out -- the cell lacks transporters for G6P , and free diffusion out of the cell is prevented due to the charged nature of G6P . Glucose may alternatively be formed from the phosphorolysis or hydrolysis of intracellular starch or glycogen . In animals , an isozyme of hexokinase called glucokinase is also used in the liver , which has a much lower affinity for glucose ( K in the vicinity of normal glycemia ) , and differs in regulatory properties . The different substrate affinity and alternate regulation of this enzyme are a reflection of the role of the liver in maintaining blood sugar levels .

Fructose can also enter the glycolytic pathway by phosphorylation at this point . The change in structure is an isomerization , in which the G6P has been converted to F6P . The reaction requires an enzyme , phosphohexose isomerase , to proceed . This reaction is freely reversible under normal cell conditions . However , it is often driven forward because of a low concentration of F6P , which is constantly consumed during the next step of glycolysis . Under conditions of high F6P concentration , this reaction readily runs in reverse . This phenomenon can be explained through Le Chatelier 's Principle . Isomerization to a keto sugar is necessary for carbanion stabilization in the fourth reaction step ( below ) . β - D - Fructose 6 - phosphate ( F6P ) <Td_colspan="2"> phosphofructokinase ( PFK - 1 ) a transferase β - D - Fructose 1 , 6 - bisphosphate ( F1 , 6BP ) <Td_colspan="2"> ATP H + ADP <Td_colspan="2"> <Td_colspan="2"> <Td_colspan="2"> The energy expenditure of another ATP in this step is justified in 2 ways : The glycolytic process ( up to this step ) is now irreversible , and the energy supplied destabilizes the molecule . Because the reaction catalyzed by Phosphofructokinase 1 ( PFK - 1 ) is coupled to the hydrolysis of ATP ( an energetically favorable step ) it is , in essence , irreversible , and a different pathway must be used to do the reverse conversion during gluconeogenesis . This makes the reaction a key regulatory point ( see below ) . This is also the rate - limiting step . Furthermore , the second phosphorylation event is necessary to allow the formation of two charged groups ( rather than only one ) in the subsequent step of glycolysis , ensuring the prevention of free diffusion of substrates out of the cell . The same reaction can also be catalyzed by pyrophosphate - dependent phosphofructokinase ( PFP or PPi - PFK ) , which is found in most plants , some bacteria , archea , and protists , but not in animals . This enzyme uses pyrophosphate ( PPi ) as a phosphate donor instead of ATP . It is a reversible reaction , increasing the flexibility of glycolytic metabolism . A rarer ADP - dependent PFK enzyme variant has been identified in archaean species .

There are two classes of aldolases : class I aldolases , present in animals and plants , and class II aldolases , present in fungi and bacteria ; the two classes use different mechanisms in cleaving the ketose ring . Electrons delocalized in the carbon - carbon bond cleavage associate with the alcohol group . The resulting carbanion is stabilized by the structure of the carbanion itself via resonance charge distribution and by the presence of a charged ion prosthetic group .

This is advantageous , as it directs dihydroxyacetone phosphate down the same pathway as glyceraldehyde 3 - phosphate , simplifying regulation . Pay - off phase ( edit ) The second half of glycolysis is known as the pay - off phase , characterised by a net gain of the energy - rich molecules ATP and NADH . Since glucose leads to two triose sugars in the preparatory phase , each reaction in the pay - off phase occurs twice per glucose molecule . This yields 2 NADH molecules and 4 ATP molecules , leading to a net gain of 2 NADH molecules and 2 ATP molecules from the glycolytic pathway per glucose . glyceraldehyde 3 - phosphate ( GADP ) <Td_colspan="2"> glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase ( GAPDH ) an oxidoreductase D - 1 , 3 - bisphosphoglycerate ( 1 , 3BPG ) <Td_colspan="2"> NAD + P NADH + H <Td_colspan="2"> <Td_colspan="2"> <Td_colspan="2"> The aldehyde groups of the triose sugars are oxidised , and inorganic phosphate is added to them , forming 1 , 3 - bisphosphoglycerate . The hydrogen is used to reduce two molecules of NAD , a hydrogen carrier , to give NADH + H for each triose . Hydrogen atom balance and charge balance are both maintained because the phosphate ( P ) group actually exists in the form of a hydrogen phosphate anion ( HPO ) , which dissociates to contribute the extra H ion and gives a net charge of - 3 on both sides . Here , Arsenate ( AsO ) , an anion akin to inorganic phosphate may replace phosphate as a substrate to form 1 - arseno - 3 - phoshoglycerate . This , however , is unstable and readily hydrolyzes to form 3 - phosphoglycerate , the intermediate in the next step of the pathway . As a consequence of bypassing this step , the molecule of ATP generated from 1 - 3 bisphosphoglycerate in the next reaction will not be made , even though the reaction proceeds . As a result , arsenate is an uncoupler of glycolysis . 1 , 3 - bisphosphoglycerate ( 1 , 3BPG ) <Td_colspan="2"> phosphoglycerate kinase ( PGK ) a transferase 3 - phosphoglycerate ( 3PG ) <Td_colspan="2"> ADP ATP <Td_colspan="2"> <Td_colspan="2"> <Td_colspan="2"> phosphoglycerate kinase ( PGK ) This step is the enzymatic transfer of a phosphate group from 1 , 3 - bisphosphoglycerate to ADP by phosphoglycerate kinase , forming ATP and 3 - phosphoglycerate . At this step , glycolysis has reached the break - even point : 2 molecules of ATP were consumed , and 2 new molecules have now been synthesized . This step , one of the two substrate - level phosphorylation steps , requires ADP ; thus , when the cell has plenty of ATP ( and little ADP ) , this reaction does not occur . Because ATP decays relatively quickly when it is not metabolized , this is an important regulatory point in the glycolytic pathway . ADP actually exists as ADPMg , and ATP as ATPMg , balancing the charges at - 5 both sides .

This serves as an additional regulatory step , similar to the phosphoglycerate kinase step . Cofactors : Mg Regulation ( edit ) Glycolysis is regulated by slowing down or speeding up certain steps in the pathway by inhibiting or activating the enzymes that are involved . The steps that are regulated may be determined by calculating the change in free energy , ΔG , for each step . When ΔG is negative , a reaction proceeds spontaneously in the forward direction only and is considered irreversible . When ΔG is positive , the reaction is non-spontaneous and will not proceed in the forward direction unless coupled with an energetically favorable reaction . When ΔG is zero , the reaction is at equilibrium , can proceed in either directions and is considered reversible . If a step is at equilibrium ( ΔG is zero ) , the enzyme catalyzing the reaction will balance the products and reactants and can not confer directionality to the pathway . These steps ( and associated enzymes ) are considered unregulated . If a step is not at equilibrium , but spontaneous ( ΔG is negative ) , the enzyme catalyzing the reaction is not balancing the products and reactants and will proceed in the forward direction unless the enzyme function is altered ; these steps are considered to be regulated . A common mechanism of regulating enzymes is allosteric control .

This requires knowing the concentrations of the metabolites . All of these values are available for erythrocytes , with the exception of the concentrations of NAD and NADH . The ratio of NAD to NADH in the cytoplasm is approximately 1000 , which makes the oxidation of glyceraldehyde - 3 - phosphate ( step 6 ) more favourable . Using the measured concentrations of each step , and the standard free energy changes , the actual free energy change can be calculated . ( Neglecting this is very common - the delta G of ATP hydrolysis in cells is not the standard free energy change of ATP hydrolysis quoted in textbooks ) . Change in free energy for each step of glycolysis Step Reaction ΔG ° ' / ( kJ / mol ) ΔG / ( kJ / mol ) Glucose + ATP → Glucose - 6 - phosphate + ADP + H - 16.7 - 34 Glucose - 6 - phosphate → Fructose - 6 - phosphate 1.67 - 2.9 Fructose - 6 - phosphate + ATP → Fructose - 1 , 6 - bisphosphate + ADP + H - 14.2 - 19 Fructose - 1 , 6 - bisphosphate → Dihydroxyacetone phosphate + Glyceraldehyde - 3 - phosphate 23.9 - 0.23 5 Dihydroxyacetone phosphate → Glyceraldehyde - 3 - phosphate 7.56 2.4 6 Glyceraldehyde - 3 - phosphate + P + NAD → 1 , 3 - Bisphosphoglycerate + NADH + H 6.30 - 1.29 7 1 , 3 - Bisphosphoglycerate + ADP → 3 - Phosphoglycerate + ATP - 18.9 0.09 8 3 - Phosphoglycerate → 2 - Phosphoglycerate 4.4 0.83 9 2 - Phosphoglycerate → Phosphoenolpyruvate + H O 1.8 10 Phosphoenolpyruvate + ADP + H → Pyruvate + ATP - 31.7 - 23.0 From measuring the physiological concentrations of metabolites in an erythrocyte it seems that about seven of the steps in glycolysis are in equilibrium for that cell type . Three of the steps -- the ones with large negative free energy changes -- are not in equilibrium and are referred to as irreversible ; such steps are often subject to regulation . Step 5 in the figure is shown behind the other steps , because that step is a side - reaction that can decrease or increase the concentration of the intermediate glyceraldehyde - 3 - phosphate . That compound is converted to dihydroxyacetone phosphate by the enzyme triose phosphate isomerase , which is a catalytically perfect enzyme ; its rate is so fast that the reaction can be assumed to be in equilibrium . The fact that ΔG is not zero indicates that the actual concentrations in the erythrocyte are not accurately known . Biochemical logic ( edit ) The existence of more than one point of regulation indicates that intermediates between those points enter and leave the glycolysis pathway by other processes . For example , in the first regulated step , hexokinase converts glucose into glucose - 6 - phosphate . Instead of continuing through the glycolysis pathway , this intermediate can be converted into glucose storage molecules , such as glycogen or starch . The reverse reaction , breaking down , e.g. , glycogen , produces mainly glucose - 6 - phosphate ; very little free glucose is formed in the reaction . The glucose - 6 - phosphate so produced can enter glycolysis after the first control point . In the second regulated step ( the third step of glycolysis ) , phosphofructokinase converts fructose - 6 - phosphate into fructose - 1 , 6 - bisphosphate , which then is converted into glyceraldehyde - 3 - phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate . The dihydroxyacetone phosphate can be removed from glycolysis by conversion into glycerol - 3 - phosphate , which can be used to form triglycerides . Conversely , triglycerides can be broken down into fatty acids and glycerol ; the latter , in turn , can be converted into dihydroxyacetone phosphate , which can enter glycolysis after the second control point . Regulation of the rate limiting enzymes ( edit ) The four regulatory enzymes are hexokinase , glucokinase , phosphofructokinase , and pyruvate kinase . The flux through the glycolytic pathway is adjusted in response to conditions both inside and outside the cell . The internal factors that regulate glycolysis do so primarily to provide ATP in adequate quantities for the cell 's needs . The external factors act primarily on the liver , fat tissue , and muscles , which can remove large quantities of glucose from the blood after meals ( thus preventing hyperglycemia by storing the excess glucose as fat or glycogen , depending on the tissue type ) . The liver is also capable of releasing glucose into the blood between meals , during fasting , and exercise thus preventing hypoglycemia by means of glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis . These latter reactions coincide with the halting of glycolysis in the liver . In animals , regulation of blood glucose levels by the pancreas in conjunction with the liver is a vital part of homeostasis . The beta cells in the pancreatic islets are sensitive to the blood glucose concentration . A rise in the blood glucose concentration causes them to release insulin into the blood , which has an effect particularly on the liver , but also on fat and muscle cells , causing these tissues to remove glucose from the blood . When the blood sugar falls the pancreatic beta cells cease insulin production , but , instead , stimulate the neighboring pancreatic alpha cells to release glucagon into the blood . This , in turn , causes the liver to release glucose into the blood by breaking down stored glycogen , and by means of gluconeogenesis . If the fall in the blood glucose level is particularly rapid or severe , other glucose sensors cause the release of epinephrine from the adrenal glands into the blood . This has the same action as glucagon on glucose metabolism , but its effect is more pronounced . In the liver glucagon and epinephrine cause the phosphorylation of the key , rate limiting enzymes of glycolysis , fatty acid synthesis , cholesterol synthesis , gluconeogenesis , and glycogenolysis . Insulin has the opposite effect on these enzymes . The phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of these enzymes ( ultimately in response to the glucose level in the blood ) is the dominant manner by which these pathways are controlled in the liver , fat , and muscle cells . Thus the phosphorylation of phosphofructokinase inhibits glycolysis , whereas its dephosphorylation through the action of insulin stimulates glycolysis . In addition hexokinase and glucokinase act independently of the hormonal effects as controls at the entry points of glucose into the cells of different tissues . Hexokinase responds to the glucose - 6 - phosphate ( G6P ) level in the cell , or , in the case of glucokinase , to the blood sugar level in the blood to impart entirely intracellular controls of the glycolytic pathway in different tissues ( see below ) . When glucose has been converted into G6P by hexokinase or glucokinase , it can either be converted to glucose - 1 - phosphate ( G1P ) for conversion to glycogen , or it is alternatively converted by glycolysis to pyruvate , which enters the mitochondrion where it is converted into acetyl - CoA and then into citrate . Excess citrate is exported from the mitochondrion back into to the cytosol , where ATP citrate lyase regenerates acetyl - CoA and oxaloacetate ( OAA ) . The acetyl - CoA is then used for fatty acid synthesis and cholesterol synthesis , two important ways of utilizing excess glucose when its concentration is high in blood . The rate limiting enzymes catalyzing these reactions perform these functions when they have been dephosphorylated through the action of insulin on the liver cells . Between meals , during fasting , exercise or hypoglycemia , glucagon and epinephrine are released into the blood . This causes liver glycogen to be converted back to G6P , and then converted to glucose by the liver - specific enzyme glucose 6 - phosphatase and released into the blood . Glucagon and epinephrine also stimulate gluconeogenesis , which coverts non-carbohydrate substrates into G6P , which joins the G6P derived from glycogen , or substitutes for it when the liver glycogen store have been depleted . This is critical for brain function , since the brain utilizes glucose as an energy source under most conditions . The simultaneously phosphorylation of , particularly , phosphofructokinase , but also , to a certain extent pyruvate kinase , prevents glycolysis occurring at the same time as gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis . Hexokinase and glucokinase ( edit ) Yeast hexokinase B ( PDB : 1IG8 ​ ) All cells contain the enzyme hexokinase , which catalyzes the conversion of glucose that has entered the cell into glucose - 6 - phosphate ( G6P ) . Since the cell membrane is impervious to G6P , hexokinase essentially acts to transport glucose into the cells from which it can then no longer escape . Hexokinase is inhibited by high levels of G6P in the cell . Thus the rate of entry of glucose into cells partially depends on how fast G6P can be disposed of by glycolysis , and by glycogen synthesis ( in the cells which store glycogen , namely liver and muscles ) . Glucokinase , unlike hexokinase , is not inhibited by G6P . It occurs in liver cells , and will only phosphorylate the glucose entering the cell to form glucose - 6 - phosphate ( G6P ) , when the sugar in the blood is abundant . This being the first step in the glycolytic pathway in the liver , it therefore imparts an additional layer of control of the glycolytic pathway in this organ . Phosphofructokinase ( edit ) Bacillus stearothermophilus phosphofructokinase ( PDB : 6PFK ​ ) Phosphofructokinase is an important control point in the glycolytic pathway , since it is one of the irreversible steps and has key allosteric effectors , AMP and fructose 2 , 6 - bisphosphate ( F2 , 6BP ) . Fructose 2 , 6 - bisphosphate ( F2 , 6BP ) is a very potent activator of phosphofructokinase ( PFK - 1 ) that is synthesized when F6P is phosphorylated by a second phosphofructokinase ( PFK2 ) . In liver , when blood sugar is low and glucagon elevates cAMP , PFK2 is phosphorylated by protein kinase A . The phosphorylation inactivates PFK2 , and another domain on this protein becomes active as fructose bisphosphatase - 2 , which converts F2 , 6BP back to F6P . Both glucagon and epinephrine cause high levels of cAMP in the liver . The result of lower levels of liver fructose - 2 , 6 - bisphosphate is a decrease in activity of phosphofructokinase and an increase in activity of fructose 1 , 6 - bisphosphatase , so that gluconeogenesis ( in essence , `` glycolysis in reverse '' ) is favored . This is consistent with the role of the liver in such situations , since the response of the liver to these hormones is to release glucose to the blood . ATP competes with AMP for the allosteric effector site on the PFK enzyme . ATP concentrations in cells are much higher than those of AMP , typically 100-fold higher , but the concentration of ATP does not change more than about 10 % under physiological conditions , whereas a 10 % drop in ATP results in a 6-fold increase in AMP . Thus , the relevance of ATP as an allosteric effector is questionable . An increase in AMP is a consequence of a decrease in energy charge in the cell . Citrate inhibits phosphofructokinase when tested in vitro by enhancing the inhibitory effect of ATP . However , it is doubtful that this is a meaningful effect in vivo , because citrate in the cytosol is utilized mainly for conversion to acetyl - CoA for fatty acid and cholesterol synthesis . Pyruvate kinase ( edit ) Yeast pyruvate kinase ( PDB : 1A3W ​ ) Main article : Pyruvate kinase Pyruvate kinase enzyme catalyzes the last step of glycolysis , in which pyruvate and ATP are formed . Pyruvate kinase catalyzes the transfer of a phosphate group from phosphoenolpyruvate ( PEP ) to ADP , yielding one molecule of pyruvate and one molecule of ATP . Liver pyruvate kinase is indirectly regulated by epinephrine and glucagon , through protein kinase A . This protein kinase phosphorylates liver pyruvate kinase to deactivate it . Muscle pyruvate kinase is not inhibited by epinephrine activation of protein kinase A. Glucagon signals fasting ( no glucose available ) . Thus , glycolysis is inhibited in the liver but unaffected in muscle when fasting . An increase in blood sugar leads to secretion of insulin , which activates phosphoprotein phosphatase I , leading to dephosphorylation and activation of pyruvate kinase . These controls prevent pyruvate kinase from being active at the same time as the enzymes that catalyze the reverse reaction ( pyruvate carboxylase and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase ) , preventing a futile cycle . Post-glycolysis processes ( edit ) The overall process of glycolysis is : Glucose + 2 NAD + 2 ADP + 2 P → 2 Pyruvate + 2 NADH + 2 H + 2 ATP + 2 H O If glycolysis were to continue indefinitely , all of the NAD would be used up , and glycolysis would stop . To allow glycolysis to continue , organisms must be able to oxidize NADH back to NAD . How this is performed depends on which external electron acceptor is available . Anoxic regeneration of NAD ( edit ) One method of doing this is to simply have the pyruvate do the oxidation ; in this process , pyruvate is converted to lactate ( the conjugate base of lactic acid ) in a process called lactic acid fermentation : Pyruvate + NADH + H → Lactate + NAD This process occurs in the bacteria involved in making yogurt ( the lactic acid causes the milk to curdle ) . This process also occurs in animals under hypoxic ( or partially anaerobic ) conditions , found , for example , in overworked muscles that are starved of oxygen . In many tissues , this is a cellular last resort for energy ; most animal tissue can not tolerate anaerobic conditions for an extended period of time . Some organisms , such as yeast , convert NADH back to NAD in a process called ethanol fermentation . In this process , the pyruvate is converted first to acetaldehyde and carbon dioxide , and then to ethanol . Lactic acid fermentation and ethanol fermentation can occur in the absence of oxygen . This anaerobic fermentation allows many single - cell organisms to use glycolysis as their only energy source . Anoxic regeneration of NAD is only an effective means of energy production during short , intense exercise in vertebrates , for a period ranging from 10 seconds to 2 minutes during a maximal effort in humans . ( At lower exercise intensities it can sustain muscle activity in diving animals , such as seals , whales and other aquatic vertebrates , for very much longer periods of time . ) Under these conditions NAD is replenished by NADH donating its electrons to pyruvate to form lactate . This produces 2 ATP molecules per glucose molecule , or about 5 % of glucose 's energy potential ( 38 ATP molecules in bacteria ) . But the speed at which ATP is produced in this manner is about 100 times that of oxidative phosphorylation . The pH in the cytoplasm quickly drops when hydrogen ions accumulate in the muscle , eventually inhibiting the enzymes involved in glycolysis . The burning sensation in muscles during hard exercise can be attributed to the release of hydrogen ions during the shift to glucose fermentation from glucose oxidation to carbon dioxide and water , when aerobic metabolism can no longer keep pace with the energy demands of the muscles . These hydrogen ions form a part of lactic acid . The body falls back on this less efficient but faster method of producing ATP under low oxygen conditions . This is thought to have been the primary means of energy production in earlier organisms before oxygen reached high concentrations in the atmosphere between 2000 and 2500 million years ago ( see diagram above right ) , and thus would represent a more ancient form of energy production than the aerobic replenishment of NAD in cells . The liver in mammals gets rid of this excess lactate by transforming it back into pyruvate under aerobic conditions ; see Cori cycle . Fermention of pyruvate to lactate is sometimes also called `` anaerobic glycolysis '' , however , glycolysis ends with the production of pyruvate regardless of the presence or absence of oxygen . In the above two examples of fermentation , NADH is oxidized by transferring two electrons to pyruvate . However , anaerobic bacteria use a wide variety of compounds as the terminal electron acceptors in cellular respiration : nitrogenous compounds , such as nitrates and nitrites ; sulfur compounds , such as sulfates , sulfites , sulfur dioxide , and elemental sulfur ; carbon dioxide ; iron compounds ; manganese compounds ; cobalt compounds ; and uranium compounds . Aerobic regeneration of NAD , and disposal of pyruvate ( edit ) In aerobic organisms , a complex mechanism has been developed to use the oxygen in air as the final electron acceptor . Firstly , the NADH + H generated by glycolysis has to be transferred to the mitochondrion to be oxidized , and thus to regenerate the NAD necessary for glycolysis to continue . However the inner mitochondrial membrane is impermeable to NADH and NAD . Use is therefore made of two `` shuttles '' to transport the electrons from NADH across the mitochondrial membrane . They are the malate - aspartate shuttle and the glycerol phosphate shuttle . In the former the electrons from NADH are transferred to cytosolic oxaloacetate to form malate . The malate then traverses the inner mitochondrial membrane into the mitochondrial matrix , where it is reoxidized by NAD forming intra-mitochondrial oxaloacetate and NADH . The oxaloacetate is then re-cycled to the cytosol via its conversion to aspartate which is readily transported out of the mitochondrion . In the glycerol phosphate shuttle electrons from cytosolic NADH are transferred to dihydroxyacetone to form glycerol - 3 - phosphate which readily traverses the outer mitochondrial membrane . Glycerol - 3 - phosphate is then reoxidized to dihydroxyacetone , donating its electrons to FAD instead of NAD . This reaction takes place on the inner mitochondrial membrane , allowing FADH to donate its electrons directly to coenzyme Q ( ubiquinone ) which is part of the electron transport chain which ultimately transfers electrons to molecular oxygen ( O ) , with the formation of water , and the release of energy eventually captured in the form of ATP . The glycolytic end - product , pyruvate ( plus NAD ) is converted to acetyl - CoA , CO and NADH + H within the mitochondria in a process called pyruvate decarboxylation . The resulting acetyl - CoA enters the citric acid cycle ( or Krebs Cycle ) , where the acetyl group of the acetyl - CoA is converted into carbon dioxide by two decarboxylation reactions with the formation of yet more intra-mitochondrial NADH + H . The intra-mitochondrial NADH + H is oxidized to NAD by the electron transport chain , using oxygen as the final electron acceptor to form water . The energy released during this process is used to create a hydrogen ion ( or proton ) gradient across the inner membrane of the mitochondrion . Finally , the proton gradient is used to produce about 2.5 ATP for every NADH + H oxidized in a process called oxidative phosphorylation . Conversion of carbohydrates into fatty acids and cholesterol ( edit ) The pyruvate produced by glycolysis is an important intermediary in the conversion of carbohydrates into fatty acids and cholesterol . This occurs via the conversion of pyruvate into acetyl - CoA in the mitochondrion . However , this acetyl CoA needs to be transported into cytosol where the synthesis of fatty acids and cholesterol occurs . This can not occur directly . To obtain cytosolic acetyl - CoA , citrate ( produced by the condensation of acetyl CoA with oxaloacetate ) is removed from the citric acid cycle and carried across the inner mitochondrial membrane into the cytosol . There it is cleaved by ATP citrate lyase into acetyl - CoA and oxaloacetate . The oxaloacetate is returned to mitochondrion as malate ( and then back into oxaloacetate to transfer more acetyl - CoA out of the mitochondrion ) . The cytosolic acetyl - CoA can be carboxylated by acetyl - CoA carboxylase into malonyl CoA , the first committed step in the synthesis of fatty acids , or it can be combined with acetoacetyl - CoA to form 3 - hydroxy - 3 - methylglutaryl - CoA ( HMG - CoA ) which is the rate limiting step controlling the synthesis of cholesterol . Cholesterol can be used as is , as a structural component of cellular membranes , or it can be used to synthesize the steroid hormones , bile salts , and vitamin D . Conversion of pyruvate into oxaloacetate for the citric acid cycle ( edit ) Pyruvate molecules produced by glycolysis are actively transported across the inner mitochondrial membrane , and into the matrix where they can either be oxidized and combined with coenzyme A to form CO , acetyl - CoA , and NADH , or they can be carboxylated ( by pyruvate carboxylase ) to form oxaloacetate . This latter reaction `` fills up '' the amount of oxaloacetate in the citric acid cycle , and is therefore an anaplerotic reaction ( from the Greek meaning to `` fill up '' ) , increasing the cycle 's capacity to metabolize acetyl - CoA when the tissue 's energy needs ( e.g. in heart and skeletal muscle ) are suddenly increased by activity . In the citric acid cycle all the intermediates ( e.g. citrate , iso - citrate , alpha - ketoglutarate , succinate , fumarate , malate and oxaloacetate ) are regenerated during each turn of the cycle . Adding more of any of these intermediates to the mitochondrion therefore means that that additional amount is retained within the cycle , increasing all the other intermediates as one is converted into the other . Hence the addition of oxaloacetate greatly increases the amounts of all the citric acid intermediates , thereby increasing the cycle 's capacity to metabolize acetyl CoA , converting its acetate component into CO and water , with the release of enough energy to form 11 ATP and 1 GTP molecule for each additional molecule of acetyl CoA that combines with oxaloacetate in the cycle . To cataplerotically remove oxaloacetate from the citric cycle , malate can be transported from the mitochondrion into the cytoplasm , decreasing the amount of oxaloacetate that can be regenerated . Furthermore , citric acid intermediates are constantly used to form a variety of substances such as the purines , pyrimidines and porphyrins . Intermediates for other pathways ( edit ) This article concentrates on the catabolic role of glycolysis with regard to converting potential chemical energy to usable chemical energy during the oxidation of glucose to pyruvate . Many of the metabolites in the glycolytic pathway are also used by anabolic pathways , and , as a consequence , flux through the pathway is critical to maintain a supply of carbon skeletons for biosynthesis . The following metabolic pathways are all strongly reliant on glycolysis as a source of metabolites : and many more . Pentose phosphate pathway , which begins with the dehydrogenation of glucose - 6 - phosphate , the first intermediate to be produced by glycolysis , produces various pentose sugars , and NADPH for the synthesis of fatty acids and cholesterol . Glycogen synthesis also starts with glucose - 6 - phosphate at the beginning of the glycolytic pathway . Glycerol , for the formation of triglycerides and phospholipids , is produced from the glycolytic intermediate glyceraldehyde - 3 - phosphate . Various post-glycolytic pathways : Fatty acid synthesis Cholesterol synthesis The citric acid cycle which in turn leads to : Amino acid synthesis Nucleotide synthesis Tetrapyrrole synthesis Although gluconeogenesis and glycolysis share many intermediates the one is not functionally a branch or tributary of the other . There are two regulatory steps in both pathways which , when active in the one pathway , are automatically inactive in the other . The two processes can therefore not be simultaneously active . Indeed , if both sets of reactions were highly active at the same time the net result would be the hydrolysis of four high energy phosphate bonds ( two ATP and two GTP ) per reaction cycle . NAD is the oxidizing agent in glycolysis , as it is in most other energy yielding metabolic reactions ( e.g. beta - oxidation of fatty acids , and during the citric acid cycle ) . The NADH thus produced is primarily used to ultimately transfer electrons to O to produce water , or , when O is not available , to produced compounds such as lactate or ethanol ( see Anoxic regeneration of NAD above ) . NADH is rarely used for synthetic processes , the notable exception being gluconeogenesis . During fatty acid and cholesterol synthesis the reducing agent is NADPH . This difference exemplifies a general principle that NADPH is consumed during biosynthetic reactions , whereas NADH is generated in energy - yielding reactions . The source of the NADPH is two-fold . When malate is oxidatively decarboxylated by `` NADP - linked malic enzyme '' pyruvate , CO and NADPH are formed . NADPH is also formed by the pentose phosphate pathway which converts glucose into ribose , which can be used in synthesis of nucleotides and nucleic acids , or it can be catabolized to pyruvate . Glycolysis in disease ( edit ) Genetic diseases ( edit ) Glycolytic mutations are generally rare due to importance of the metabolic pathway , this means that the majority of occurring mutations result in an inability for the cell to respire , and therefore cause the death of the cell at an early stage . However , some mutations are seen with one notable example being Pyruvate kinase deficiency , leading to chronic hemolytic anemia . Cancer ( edit ) Malignant Tumor cells perform glycolysis at a rate that is ten times faster than their noncancerous tissue counterparts . During their genesis , limited capillary support often results in hypoxia ( decreased O2 supply ) within the tumor cells . Thus , these cells rely on anaerobic metabolic processes such as glycolysis for ATP . Some tumor cells overexpress specific glycolytic enzymes which results in higher rates of glycolysis . Often these enzymes are Isoenzymes , of traditional glycolysis enzymes , that vary in their susceptibility to traditional feedback inhibition . The increase in glycolytic activity ultimately counteracts the effects of hypoxia by generating sufficient ATP from this anaerobic pathway . This phenomenon was first described in 1930 by Otto Warburg and is referred to as the Warburg effect . The Warburg hypothesis claims that cancer is primarily caused by dysfunctionality in mitochondrial metabolism , rather than because of uncontrolled growth of cells . A number of theories have been advanced to explain the Warburg effect . One such theory suggests that the increased glycolysis is a normal protective process of the body and that malignant change could be primarily caused by energy metabolism . This high glycolysis rate has important medical applications , as high aerobic glycolysis by malignant tumors is utilized clinically to diagnose and monitor treatment responses of cancers by imaging uptake of 2 - F - 2 - deoxyglucose ( FDG ) ( a radioactive modified hexokinase substrate ) with positron emission tomography ( PET ) . There is ongoing research to affect mitochondrial metabolism and treat cancer by reducing glycolysis and thus starving cancerous cells in various new ways , including a ketogenic diet .

After a shootout with the smugglers , and a car chase that leaves one injured , the lieutenant leading the case ask James to drop the case on `` Omar '' , something James does n't do . Ben Barber , a fast - talking , jumpy high school security guard who plays video games on his spare time , applies for the Atlanta City Police Academy . When he gets in , he decides to ask James for his blessings to marry his sister Angela . James then says Ben has to be worthy of Angela , making him go on a `` ride along '' to prove it . After picking up Ben and taking him to the police station , James tells dispatch to give him all the 1 - 26 's that are called into the station . James makes Ben take care of all the 1 - 26 's . James then arrives at the park to question an informant Runflat , about a connection of Serbia and `` Omar '' . He finds out that a shipment will come in later that day . After leaving the park , James takes Ben to the local shooting range where he finds out that Zastava M92 's have been given to the store , Ben realizes he has a clue for James . When a 1 - 26 is called in , Ben and James are called to the Sweet Auburn Curb Market where a drunk man named Crazy Cody is being disorderly . Ben tries to subdue him but is unable to , so James arrests him . Ben asks to be taken home before he receives a call from Angela . He tells her about his stressful day , before Angela says that James plays poker with a guy named Crazy Cody , along with telling him that 1 - 26 's are a code for annoying situations for new - comers as a joke . He then goes into the police station and sees Cody laughing with James and his partners Santiago and Miggs . Upset at James , Ben refuses to go home and instead takes a 1 - 26 call to respond to a disturbance at a strip club , where two men get into a mexican standoff with James and Ben , which Ben thinks it 's another joke call , so he fools around . James subdues the men , and the two are then tipped off about a gun deal involving Omar 's men . Ben then confronts James about the 1 - 26 's . James receives a call from Santiago in the car , when he finds out that Runflat had turned himself in , Ben says how Runflat 's brother in the park said that Runflat had just got out of prison . James then contradicts , saying that Runflat had n't been in prison for over two years , leading to another clue . The men go to talk Runflat 's other brother , J , trying to find out the location of the gun deal , during the confrontation , Ben accidentally shoots J , who subsequently reveals that the deal will take place at an old abandoned warehouse at 9 PM . James decides to infiltrate the warehouse with Santiago and Miggs , after leaving Ben behind in the car . James is then betrayed by Santiago and Miggs , who turn out to be crooked cops working for Omar . James is then tied up , just when Ben witnesses . Santiago not only mocks James , but also criticizes him for his unsociable , egocentric personality . As the deal begins , Ben enters pretending to be Omar ( since no one has ever actually seen the real Omar ) . Having successfully fooled the crooks , Ben then wreaks havoc at the deal , and right as Ben is about to leave with James , the real Omar appears . A shootout ensues , and many of Omar 's men are killed . Ben reveals his sharp reflexes and extensive knowledge of battle ( a result of his video game experience ) . James and Ben take the money meant for the deal and escape right before the warehouse blows up because of Ben 's grenade that hit a box of explosives and destroys James 's car . Unbeknownst to them , Santiago , Miggs and Omar all escape . Santiago and Miggs arrive at Angela 's apartment and tie her up . As she was playing one of Ben 's video games , Ben 's fellow players hear the confrontation ensuing between Angela , Miggs and Santiago from Ben 's headset . At the hospital after being shot in the leg , Ben receives a call from the fellow player , and tells James that there 's something going on at the apartment . After seeing some dirty cops arrive at the hospital , James takes Ben and leaves to go to the apartment , along with Omar 's money . James then injures Miggs , before getting into a fight with Santiago . As Santiago is about to shoot James , Angela knocks him out with a frying pan . Ben gets knocked out by Omar in a fight , before Omar takes the bag of money and Angela , and leaves the apartment . James follows Omar and Angela and confronts them . Right as Omar is about to shoot James , Ben slides over a car and kicks him , and James shoots Omar twice , injuring him . Police arrest Omar , Miggs and Santiago , and James finally gives Ben his blessing .
