The analogy is found in such ocean-going amphipods (a kind of β€˜ shrimp ’) as Cystosoma, which also has enormously expanded eyes, looking like headlamps, compared with its bottom-dwelling relatives (see above).
Of course because there are no living trilobites we cannot find direct confirmation of this hypothesis, but we can look for other arthropods that have the same modifications of the eyes, for example, in the present day oceans.
In fact many of the arthropods that inhabit the water column have large, globular eyes of this kind.

In fact Meadowell is an Elastoplast name like Sizewell, invented in the 1970s to disguise what was already a running sore.

The Commission argues that there is at present no monitoring of environmental quality and trends on a European scale, nor any guarantee that the results of environmental monitoring will be comparable on a Community-wide basis (a realization brought about through the CORINE programme described later).
Their role in bringing environmental impact assessment (EIA) on to the statute book is well known, but the Commission has now made a proposal (CEC 1989) for the β€˜ establishment of the European Environment Agency and the European Environment Monitoring and Information Network ’.
The objectives of the new agency would be to assist the Community and the Member States to achieve the goals set out in the Treaty of Rome and in successive environmental action programmes; it must also, however, be seen in the context of the European Council's adoption on 2 December 1988 of the Rhodes Declaration on the Environment and the environment chapter in the Single European Act which comes into effect in 1992.

William IX's crusade of 1101 brought about serious financial problems in Aquitaine which caused rapid devaluation in the hitherto stable currency; and Robert Curthose's decision to mortgage Normandy to William Rufus in order to cover his crusading expenses exacerbated a conflict over the duchy which was not settled until the death of his son William Clito in 1128.
Had not his grandson Raymond V fulfilled his crusading obligation in his early youth, thereby freeing himself from the necessity of interrupting his career in the county, the principality of Toulouse might have disintegrated altogether.
All in all, it was not surprising that Suger, mulling over the precedents of early crusading, tried to dissuade Louis VII from embarking on his Jerusalem journey in 1145.

In terms of principle, the rule requires justification because it departs from the principle of correspondence (see Chapter 5.2(a)), namely that the fault element in a crime should relate to the consequences prohibited by that crime.
If the point of distinguishing murder from manslaughter is to mark out the most heinous group of killings for the extra stigma of a murder conviction, it can be argued that the β€˜ grievous bodily harm ’ rule draws the line too low.
By allowing an intent to cause grievous bodily harm to suffice for a murder conviction, the law is violating a general principle, turning the most serious of its offences into a constructive crime.

The ostensibly matriarchal society of Tehuantepec led to the adoption of the Tehuana, in post-revolutionary Mexico, as the image of the strong Indian woman; the undefeated counterpart to the despised β€˜ Chingada ’, who, conversely is the female embodiment of Mexico's hybrid post-conquest culture.
It is the mythology surrounding the women wearers of the costume which directed Kahlo's choice.

The Dear Report on Handsworth captures this image and links it to the social condition of young blacks:

The majority of rioters who took part in these unhappy events were young, black and Afro-Caribbean origin . Let there be no doubt, these young criminals are not in any way representative of the vast majority of the Afro-Caribbean community whose life has contributed to the life and culture of the West Midlands over many years and whose hopes and aspirations are at one with those of every other law-abiding citizen .

While a number of discussions of the roots of urban unrest in the United States have noted the salience of political marginality in determining participation in violent protests (Skolnick, 1969; Fogelson, 1971; Edelman, 1971; Knopf, 1975), this issue has received relatively little attention in Britain.
The final symbolic cue used to make sense of the 1980–1 protests is more difficult to categorize, but its basic meaning can be captured by the term β€˜ political marginality ’.
Nevertheless, during the 1980–1 events and their aftermath the political context was discussed from a number of perspectives.

The chapter as a whole draws attention to a number of key methodological issues that are involved in environmental monitoring and prediction.
This highlights the challenges for research in a field categorized by a lack of data for some countries, varying definitions and standards in use, and unreasonably high user expectations.
These include the highly specialized nature of much of the technical analysis, the limited capacity for checking the accuracy of many of the findings of this kind of research and the consequent need for the development of knowledge- based inference machines for extracting useful information from secondary and often proxy data.
