. At 18 years old , she became the first licensed female racehorse trainer in Africa and rapidly became a successful and renowned figure among the racing community of Kenya . She trained six winners of the Kenya Derby . </P> <P> Adventurous , independent thinking , and beautiful , Markham was admired and described as a noted non-conformist , even in a colony known for its colourful eccentrics . She was married three times , taking the name Markham from her second husband , the wealthy Mansfield Markham , with whom she had a son , Gervase . She had a public affair in 1929 with Prince Henry , Duke of Gloucester , the son of George V , but the Windsors allegedly cut the romance short . She also had an affair with Hubert Broad , who was later named by Mansfield Markham as a co-respondent in his 1937 divorce from Beryl . After her Atlantic crossing , she returned to be with Broad , who was also a great influence in her flying career . </P> <P> She befriended the Danish writer Karen Blixen during the years that Baroness Blixen was managing her family 's coffee farm in the Ngong hills outside Nairobi . When Blixen 's romantic connection with the hunter and pilot Denys Finch Hatton was winding down , Markham started her own affair with him . He invited her to tour game lands on what turned out to be his fatal flight , but Markham supposedly declined because of a premonition of her flight instructor , British pilot Tom Campbell Black . </P> <P> Inspired and coached by Tom Campbell Black , with whom she had a long - term affair , Markham took up flying . She worked for some time as a bush pilot , spotting game animals from the air and signaling their locations to safaris on the ground . She also mingled with the notorious Happy Valley set . </P> <H2> Record flight ( edit ) </H2> Beryl Markham , circa 1930 . <P> Markham was the first woman to successfully fly across the Atlantic from east to west non-stop . Strong headwinds made the westward trip more difficult than the east - bound flights by Charles Lindbergh and Amelia Earhart . ( The first east - west non-stop transatlantic crossing by an aeroplane was made in 1928 by the Bremen , a German Junkers W33 type aircraft , from Baldonnel Airfield in County Dublin , Ireland. ( 14 ) On 18 August 1932 Jim Mollison made the first east - to - west solo trans - Atlantic flight ; flying from Portmarnock in Ireland to Pennfield , New Brunswick , Canada in a de Havilland Puss Moth. ( 15 ) ) </P> <P> When Markham decided to take on the Atlantic crossing , no female pilot had yet flown non-stop from Europe to New York , and no woman had made the westward flight solo , though several had died trying . Markham hoped to claim both records . On 4 September 1936 , she took off from Abingdon , England . After a 20 - hour flight , her Vega Gull , The Messenger , suffered fuel starvation due to icing of the fuel tank vents , and she crash - landed at Baleine Cove on Cape Breton Island , Nova Scotia , Canada . She became the first person to make it from England to North America non-stop from east to west . She was celebrated as an aviation pioneer . </P> <P> Markham chronicled her many adventures in her memoir , West with the Night , published in 1942 . Despite strong reviews in the press , the book sold modestly , and then quickly went out of print . After living for many years in the United States , Markham moved back to Kenya in 1952 , becoming for a time the most successful horse trainer in the country . </P> <H2> Rediscovery ( edit ) </H2> <P> Markham 's memoir lingered in obscurity until 1982 , when California restaurateur George Gutekunst read a collection of Ernest Hemingway 's letters , including one in which Hemingway lavishly praised Markham 's writing ( if not Markham herself ) : </P> <Table> <Tr> <Td> `` </Td> <Td> `` Did you read Beryl Markham 's book , West with the Night ? ... She has written so well , and marvelously well , that I was completely ashamed of myself as a writer . I felt that I was simply a carpenter with words , picking up whatever was furnished on the job and nailing them together and sometimes making an okay pig pen . But this girl , who is to my knowledge very unpleasant and we might even say a high - grade bitch , can write rings around all of us who consider ourselves as writers ... it really is a bloody wonderful book . '' </Td> <Td> '' </Td> </Tr> </Table> <P> Intrigued , Gutekunst read West with the Night and became so enamored of Markham 's prose that he helped persuade a California publisher , North Point Press , to re-issue the book in 1983 . The re-release of the book launched a remarkable final chapter in the life of the eighty - year - old Markham , who was lauded for her three final years as a great author as well as flyer . </P> <P> When found in Kenya by AP East Africa correspondent Barry Shlachter , Markham was living in poverty . She had recently been badly beaten during a burglary at her house near the Nairobi racetrack , where she still trained thoroughbreds . The success of the re-issue of West with the Night provided enough income for Markham to finish her life in relative comfort . Earlier , she had been supported by a circle of friends and owners of race horses she trained into her 80s . The book became a surprising best - seller , spurred by the 1986 broadcast of a public television documentary about Markham 's life ,

Parable of the pearl - wikipedia <H1> Parable of the pearl </H1> Jump to : navigation , search The Parable of the Hidden Treasure ( left ) paired with the Parable of the Pearl ( right ) on a stained glass window in Scots ' Church , Melbourne . <P> The Parable of the Pearl ( also called the Pearl of Great Price ) is one of the parables of Jesus . It appears in Matthew 13 : 45 - 46 and illustrates the great value of the Kingdom of Heaven . It is the penultimate parable in Matthew 13 , just before the Parable of the Dragnet . </P> <P> It immediately follows the Parable of the Hidden Treasure , which has a similar theme . It does not appear in the other synoptic gospels but a version of this parable does appear in the non-canonical Gospel of Thomas , Saying 76 . The parable has been depicted by artists such as Domenico Fetti . </P> <P> The parable reads as follows : </P> <P> Again , the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man , seeking goodly pearls : Who , when he had found one pearl of great price , went and sold all that he had , and bought it . </P> -- Matthew 13 : 45 - 46 , King James Version <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Interpretation </Li> <Li> 2 Gospel of Thomas </Li> <Li> 3 Depictions </Li> <Li> 4 See also </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> <Li> 6 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Interpretation ( edit ) </H2> The Pearl of Great Price , by Domenico Fetti , 17th century . <P> This parable is generally interpreted as illustrating the great value of the Kingdom of Heaven . Anglican bishop Charles Ellicott notes that : </P> <P> `` the caprices of luxury in the Roman empire had given a prominence to pearls , as an article of commerce , which they had never had before , and have probably never had since . They , rather than emeralds and sapphires , were the typical instance of all costliest adornments ( Matthew 7 : 6 ; 1 Timothy 2 : 9 ) . The story of Cleopatra and the fact that the opening of a new pearl market was one of the alleged motives which led the Emperor Claudius to invade Britain , are indications of the value that was then set on the `` goodly pearls '' of the parable `` , </P> <P> and theologian John Nolland likewise notes that pearls at that time had a greater value than they do today , , and it thus has a similar theme to its partner , the parable of the Hidden Treasure . Nolland comments that it shares with that parable the notions of `` good fortune and demanding action in attaining the kingdom of heaven '' , but adds in this case the notion of `` diligent seeking '' . </P> <P> The valuable pearl is the `` deal of a lifetime '' for the merchant in the story . However , those who do not believe in the kingdom of heaven enough to stake their whole future on it are unworthy of the kingdom . </P> <P> This interpretation of the parable is the inspiration for a number of hymns , including the anonymous Swedish hymn Den Kostliga Pärlan ( O That Pearl of Great Price ! ) , which begins : </P> <P> O that Pearl of great price ! have you found it ? Is the Savior supreme in your love ? O consider it well , ere you answer , As you hope for a welcome above . Have you given up all for this Treasure ? Have you counted past gains as but loss ? Has your trust in yourself and your merits Come to naught before Christ and His cross ? </P> <P> A less common interpretation of the parable is that the merchant represents Jesus , and the pearl represents the Christian Church . This interpretation would give the parable a similar theme to that of the Parable of the Lost Sheep , the Lost Coin , and the Prodigal Son . </P> <P> The phrase `` Pearl of Great Price '' has also been interpreted more widely to apply to things of great value in a number of religious contexts . For example , it is the title of a selection of Mormon writings . Pope Pius XII used the phrase to describe virginity . </P> <P> The pearl itself is a beautiful , single entity , formed through suffering in the heart of the oyster ( in the same way that believers endure lack of wealth or comfort ) and like the Church , will be put on display in a coming day . Unlike precious stones which must be cut and polished to reveal their clarity and beauty , the pearl is perfect as it comes from the oyster . </P> Anonymous , 1900 <H2> Gospel of Thomas ( edit ) </H2> <P> A version of the parable also appears in the Gnostic Gospel of Thomas ( Saying 76 ) : </P> <P> Jesus said , `` The Father 's kingdom is like a merchant who had a supply of merchandise and found a pearl . That merchant was prudent ; he sold the merchandise and bought the single pearl for himself . So also with you , seek his treasure that is unfailing , that is enduring , where no moth comes to eat and no worm destroys . '' </P> -- Gospel of Thomas 76 , Patterson / Meyer translation <P> This work 's version of the parable of the Hidden Treasure appears later ( Saying 109 ) , rather than immediately preceding , as in Matthew . However , the mention of a treasure in Saying 76 may reflect a source for the Gospel of Thomas in which the parables were adjacent , so that the original pair of parables has been ``

It was released in May 2002 as the third single from their second major label studio album Satellite . While it did not chart as well as the album 's previous singles , the song has appeared significantly in film and television . `` Boom ( The Crystal Method remix ) '' was included on the remix album Community Service and as a bonus track on the special edition re-release of Satellite available August 27 , 2002 . A limited edition , gatefold picture disc of the single was also available in the UK . </P> <P> Following the September 11 , 2001 attacks , `` Boom '' was the only P.O.D. song included on the list of songs deemed inappropriate by Clear Channel Communications . </P> <P> The single 's release followed a highly successful yet dark , brooding tone in `` Youth of the Nation '' . Guitarist Marcos Curiel stated , `` We wanted to go back to the spirit we had with ' Alive ' and have a song that encourages people to be happy and thankful that they 're alive ... We wanted to say , ' Let 's not forget how to have fun this time . ' ' Boom ' is just raw , in your face . When we play it live , the crowd just goes nuts .

's concerts . The song 's lyrics revolve around the band and their San Diego background , describing the group 's rise to popularity with lines like `` rock the masses , from Madrid to Calabasas . '' However , the explosive , multitracked `` Boom ! '' of the chorus gives the song its impact and versatility as a soundtrack piece . In contrast to P.O.D. 's more faith - oriented tracks , `` Boom '' has been described by vocalist Sonny Sandoval as `` just a fun rock song . '' </P> <H2> Video ( edit ) </H2> <P> The music video for `` Boom '' was recorded in the first quarter of 2002 and directed by Gavin Bowden , debuting in May with heavy rotation on MTV2 and MMUSA . It is an unusual video for P.O.D. in its obvious sense of humor ; `` Boom '' revolves around a table tennis ( aka : Ping Pong ) tournament between the band , dressed in orange jumpsuits , and a Swedish team played by fellow Christian metal group Blindside . The latter group was heavily supported by P.O.D. during this time and signed by them under the Elektra Records subsidiary , 3 Points . The teams are evenly matched until Traa Daniels performs a comically impressive move to win the game , enraging their opponents . </P> <P> Regarding the video , Curiel stated , `` The funny thing is , people take us really seriously . We are a serious band , but we know that , at times , we do n't have to take ourselves so seriously . We have fun . That 's why we went ahead and did a video like ' Boom . ' We wanted to show people that we could have fun . They have a movie out now called Balls of Fury , but we did that same topic back in the day .

In 1950 , Alan Turing published an article titled `` Computing Machinery and Intelligence '' which proposed what is now called the Turing test as a criterion of intelligence . </P> <P> The Georgetown experiment in 1954 involved fully automatic translation of more than sixty Russian sentences into English . The authors claimed that within three or five years , machine translation would be a solved problem . However , real progress was much slower , and after the ALPAC report in 1966 , which found that ten - year - long research had failed to fulfill the expectations , funding for machine translation was dramatically reduced . Little further research in machine translation was conducted until the late 1980s , when the first statistical machine translation systems were developed . </P> <P> Some notably successful natural - language processing systems developed in the 1960s were SHRDLU , a natural - language system working in restricted `` blocks worlds '' with restricted vocabularies , and ELIZA , a simulation of a Rogerian psychotherapist , written by Joseph Weizenbaum between 1964 and 1966 . Using almost no information about human thought or emotion , ELIZA sometimes provided a startlingly human - like interaction . When the `` patient '' exceeded the very small knowledge base , ELIZA might provide a generic response , for example , responding to `` My head hurts '' with `` Why do you say your head hurts ? '' . </P> <P> During the 1970s , many programmers began to write `` conceptual ontologies '' , which structured real - world information into computer - understandable data . Examples are MARGIE ( Schank , 1975 ) , SAM ( Cullingford , 1978 ) , PAM ( Wilensky , 1978 ) , TaleSpin ( Meehan , 1976 ) , QUALM ( Lehnert , 1977 ) , Politics ( Carbonell , 1979 ) , and Plot Units ( Lehnert 1981 ) . During this time , many chatterbots were written including PARRY , Racter , and Jabberwacky . </P> <P> Up to the 1980s , most natural - language processing systems were based on complex sets of hand - written rules . Starting in the late 1980s , however , there was a revolution in natural - language processing with the introduction of machine learning algorithms for language processing . This was due to both the steady increase in computational power ( see Moore 's law ) and the gradual lessening of the dominance of Chomskyan theories of linguistics ( e.g. transformational grammar ) , whose theoretical underpinnings discouraged the sort of corpus linguistics that underlies the machine - learning approach to language processing . Some of the earliest - used machine learning algorithms , such as decision trees , produced systems of hard if - then rules similar to existing hand - written rules . However , part - of - speech tagging introduced the use of hidden Markov models to natural - language processing , and increasingly , research has focused on statistical models , which make soft , probabilistic decisions based on attaching real - valued weights to the features making up the input data . The cache language models upon which many speech recognition systems now rely are examples of such statistical models . Such models are generally more robust when given unfamiliar input , especially input that contains errors ( as is very common for real - world data ) , and produce more reliable results when integrated into a larger system comprising multiple subtasks . </P> <P> Many of the notable early successes occurred in the field of machine translation , due especially to work at IBM Research , where successively more complicated statistical models were developed . These systems were able to take advantage of existing multilingual textual corpora that had been produced by the Parliament of Canada and the European Union as a result of laws calling for the translation of all governmental proceedings into all official languages of the corresponding systems of government . However , most other systems depended on corpora specifically developed for the tasks implemented by these systems , which was ( and often continues to be ) a major limitation in the success of these systems . As a result , a great deal of research has gone into methods of more effectively learning from limited amounts of data . </P> <P> Recent research has increasingly focused on unsupervised and semi-supervised learning algorithms . Such algorithms are able to learn from data that has not been hand - annotated with the desired answers , or using a combination of annotated and non-annotated data . Generally , this task is much more

In Ikrit , Syria , 40 nurses -- 25 Indian and 15 Pakistani -- are held hostage in their own hospital by Abu Usman , the head of ISC , a terrorist organisation . The chairman of the Research and Analysis Wing ( RAW ) , Shenoy , feels that only Tiger would be able to rescue the nurses and that too within a period of 7 days as the United States will launch an airstrike within 7 days to kill Usman . Presently , Tiger and Zoya live in Innsbruck , Austria and have a son , Junior . </P> <P> Shenoy and his deputy , Karan manage to find Tiger and requests him to undertake the mission . Although hesitant at first , Tiger agrees after Zoya asks him to carry out the mission for his country . Tiger and three other RAW agents Azaan , Namit and Rakesh travel to Syria . Meanwhile , Zoya comes to know of the Pakistani nurses held hostage along with the Indians and joins Tiger with two other ISI members Abrar and Javed . </P> <P> On the day of the airstrike , Tiger managed to rescue the nurses from the hospital . Meanwhile , Abu Usman holds Zoya hostage and captures Tiger , who is put into a poison chamber . Tiger , Zoya and the nurses flee after Tiger defeats Abu Usman and his troops .

It was released on May 3 , 2005 , through Island Records as the band 's major label debut . The music was composed by lead vocalist and guitarist Patrick Stump , with all lyrics penned by bassist Pete Wentz , continuing the band 's songwriting approach they took for some songs on their prior 2003 effort Take This to Your Grave . Neal Avron handled production duties . Commenting on the record 's lyrical themes , Wentz said the lyrics were about `` the anxiety and depression that goes along with looking at your own life . '' In support of their release the group headlined tours worldwide and played at various music festivals . For their Black Clouds and Underdogs tour the album was re-released as From Under the Cork Tree ( Limited `` Black Clouds and Underdogs '' Edition ) , featuring new songs and remixes . </P> <P> The album was Fall Out Boy 's breakthrough mainstream success . Spearheaded by the lead single `` Sugar , We 're Goin Down '' , the album debuted at No. 9 on the US Billboard 200 with 68,000 first week sales , a position it stayed at for two non-consecutive weeks , earning the band their first top ten album and becoming their longest charting and best - selling album . It logged fourteen weeks in the top twenty out of its seventy - eight chart weeks . The album as well as its singles won several awards and achieved Double Platinum status . It has sold over 2.5 million albums in the United States as of 2007 , and over 3 million worldwide . As of February 2013 Cork Tree has 2.7 million US sales . The album produced two hugely popular hit singles , `` Sugar , We 're Goin Down '' and `` Dance , Dance '' peaking at No. 8 and No. 9 on the Billboard Hot 100 respectively and receiving regular radio play at both Pop and Alternative stations . In 2005 the album was ranked eighteenth on the `` Top 100 best - selling albums of the year in the US '' with 1,654,320 sales and at No. 43 on IFPI 's list of the `` Top 50 Best Selling Albums of 2005 '' worldwide .

The band debuted with a self - released demo in the same year , and in 2002 released a split EP with Project Rocket through Uprising Records . A first mini-album , Fall Out Boy 's Evening Out with Your Girlfriend was recorded in 2002 but released in 2003 by Uprising against the band 's wishes . Both releases helped Fall Out Boy gain notoriety on the internet and attention from record labels . The band signed with indie label Fueled by Ramen and received an advance from major label Island Records , which financed the production of Take This to Your Grave . Grave became an underground success and helped the band gain a dedicated fanbase . Fall Out Boy returned to the studio in November 2004 to begin work on a new album . </P> <P> However , the group suffered a setback in February 2005 after Wentz 's anxieties about creating a new record culminated in a suicide attempt . Wentz explained , `` It was overwhelming . I was either totally anxious or totally depressed . It is particularly overwhelming when you are on the cusp of doing something very big and thinking that it will be a big flop . I was

The word `` atom '' was coined by the ancient Greek philosophers Leucippus and his pupil Democritus . However , these ideas were founded in philosophical and theological reasoning rather than evidence and experimentation . As a result , their views on what atoms look like and how they behave were incorrect . They also could not convince everybody , so atomism was but one of a number of competing theories on the nature of matter . It was not until the 19th century that the idea was embraced and refined by scientists , when the blossoming science of chemistry produced discoveries that only the concept of atoms could explain . </P> <H3> First evidence - based theory </H3> Various atoms and molecules as depicted in John Dalton 's A New System of Chemical Philosophy ( 1808 ) . <P> In the early 1800s , John Dalton used the concept of atoms to explain why elements always react in ratios of small whole numbers ( the law of multiple proportions ) . For instance , there are two types of tin oxide : one is 88.1 % tin and 11.9 % oxygen and the other is 78.7 % tin and 21.3 % oxygen ( tin ( II ) oxide and tin dioxide respectively ) . This means that 100g of tin will combine either with 13.5 g or 27g of oxygen . 13.5 and 27 form a ratio of 1 : 2 , a ratio of small whole numbers . This common pattern in chemistry suggested to Dalton that elements react in whole number multiples of discrete units -- in other words , atoms . In the case of tin oxides , one tin atom will combine with either one or two oxygen atoms . </P> <P> Dalton also believed atomic theory could explain why water absorbs different gases in different proportions . For example , he found that water absorbs carbon dioxide far better than it absorbs nitrogen . Dalton hypothesized this was due to the differences between the masses and configurations of the gases ' respective particles , and carbon dioxide molecules ( CO ) are heavier and larger than nitrogen molecules ( N ) . </P> <H3> Brownian motion </H3> <P> In 1827 , botanist Robert Brown used a microscope to look at dust grains floating in water and discovered that they moved about erratically , a phenomenon that became known as `` Brownian motion '' . This was thought to be caused by water molecules knocking the grains about . In 1905 , Albert Einstein proved the reality of these molecules and their motions by producing the first Statistical physics analysis of Brownian motion . French physicist Jean Perrin used Einstein 's work to experimentally determine the mass and dimensions of atoms , thereby conclusively verifying Dalton 's atomic theory . </P> <H3> Discovery of the electron </H3> The Geiger -- Marsden experiment Top : Expected results : alpha particles passing through the plum pudding model of the atom with negligible deflection . Bottom : Observed results : a small portion of the particles were deflected by the concentrated positive charge of the nucleus . <P> The physicist J.J. Thomson measured the mass of cathode rays , showing they were made of particles , but were around 1800 times lighter than the lightest atom , hydrogen . Therefore , they were not atoms , but a new particle , the first subatomic particle to be discovered , which he originally called `` corpuscle '' but was later named electron , after particles postulated by George Johnstone Stoney in 1874 . He also showed they were identical to particles given off by photoelectric and radioactive materials . It was quickly recognized that they are the particles that carry electric currents in metal wires , and carry the negative electric charge within atoms . Thomson was given the 1906 Nobel Prize in Physics for this

mucus - secreting esophageal glands being found in the submucosa , and esophageal cardiac glands , similar to cardiac glands of the stomach , located in the lamina propria and most frequent in the terminal part of the organ . The mucus from the glands gives a good protection to the lining . The submucosa also contains the submucosal plexus , a network of nerve cells that is part of the enteric nervous system . </P> <P> The muscular layer of the esophagus has two types of muscle . The upper third of the esophagus contains striated muscle , the lower third contains smooth muscle , and the middle third contains a mixture of both . Muscle is arranged in two layers : one in which the muscle fibers run longitudinal to the esophagus , and the other in which the fibers encircle the esophagus . These are separated by the myenteric plexus , a tangled network of nerve fibers involved in the secretion of mucus and in peristalsis of the smooth muscle of the esophagus . The outermost layer of the esophagus is the adventitia in most of its length , with the abdominal part being covered in serosa . This makes it distinct from many other structures in the gastrointestinal tract that only have a serosa . </P> <H2> Development ( edit ) </H2> <P> In early embryogenesis , the esophagus develops from the endodermal primitive gut tube . The ventral part of the embryo abuts the yolk sac . During the second week of embryological development , as the embryo grows , it begins to surround parts of the sac . The enveloped portions form the basis for the adult gastrointestinal tract . The sac is surrounded by a network of vitelline arteries . Over time , these arteries consolidate into the three main arteries that supply the developing gastrointestinal tract : the celiac artery , superior mesenteric artery , and inferior mesenteric artery . The areas supplied by these arteries are used to define the midgut , hindgut and foregut . </P> <P> The surrounded sac becomes the primitive gut . Sections of this gut begin to differentiate into the organs of the gastrointestinal tract , such as the esophagus , stomach , and intestines . The esophagus develops as part of the foregut tube . The innervation of the esophagus develops from the pharyngeal arches . </P> <H2> Function ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Swallowing ( edit ) </H3> <P> Food is ingested through the mouth and when swallowed passes first into the pharynx and then into the esophagus . The esophagus is thus one of the first components of the digestive system and the gastrointestinal tract . After food passes through the esophagus , it enters the stomach . When food is being swallowed , the epiglottis moves backward to cover the larynx , preventing food from entering the trachea . At the same time , the upper esophageal sphincter relaxes , allowing a bolus of food to enter . Peristaltic contractions of the esophageal muscle push the food down the esophagus . These rhythmic contractions occur both as a reflex response to food that is in the mouth , and also as a response to the sensation of food within the esophagus itself . Along with peristalsis , the lower esophageal sphincter relaxes . </P> <H3> Reducing gastric reflux ( edit ) </H3> <P> The stomach produces gastric acid , a strongly acidic mixture consisting of hydrochloric acid ( HCl ) and potassium and sodium salts to enable food digestion . Constriction of the upper and lower esophageal sphincters help to prevent reflux ( backflow ) of gastric contents and acid into the esophagus , protecting the esophageal mucosa . In addition , the acute angle of His and the lower crura of the diaphragm helps this sphincteric action . </P> <H2> Gene and protein expression ( edit ) </H2> <P> About 20,000 protein - coding genes are expressed in human cells and nearly 70 % of these genes are expressed in the normal esophagus . Some 250 of these genes are more specifically expressed in the esophagus with less than 50 genes being highly specific . The corresponding esophagus - specific proteins are mainly involved in squamous differentiation such as keratins KRT13 , KRT4 and KRT6C . Other specific proteins that help lubricate the inner surface of esophagus are mucins such as MUC21 and MUC22 . Many genes with elevated expression are also shared with skin and other organs that are composed of squamous epithelia . </P> <H2> Clinical significance ( edit ) </H2> <P> The main conditions affecting the esophagus are described here . For a more complete list , see esophageal disease . </P> <H3> Inflammation ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Esophagitis <P> Inflammation of the esophagus is known as esophagitis . Reflux of gastric acids from the stomach , infection , substances ingested ( for example , corrosives ) , some medications ( such as bisphosphonates ) , and food allergies can all lead to esophagitis . Esophageal candidiasis is an infection of the yeast candida albicans that may occur when a person is immunocompromised . As of 2014 the cause of some forms of esophagitis , such as eosinophilic esophagitis , is not known . Esophagitis can cause painful swallowing and is usually treated by managing the cause of the esophagitis - such as managing reflux or treating infection . </P> <H3> Barrett 's esophagus ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Barrett 's esophagus <P> Prolonged esophagitis , particularly from gastric reflux , is one factor thought to play a role in the development of Barrett 's esophagus . In this condition , there is metaplasia of the lining of the lower esophagus , which changes from stratified squamous epithelia to simple columnar epithelia . Barrett 's esophagus is thought to be one of the main contributors to the development of esophageal cancer . </P> <H3> Cancer ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Esophageal cancer <P> There are two main types of cancer of the esophagus .

The round is divided into cuts including the eye ( of ) round , bottom round , and top round , with or without the `` round '' bone ( femur ) , and may include the knuckle ( sirloin tip ) , depending on how the round is separated from the loin . This is a lean cut and it is moderately tough . Lack of fat and marbling makes round dry out when cooked with dry - heat cooking methods like roasting or grilling . Round steak is commonly prepared with slow moist - heat methods including braising , to tenderize the meat and maintain moisture .

. Odie Cleghorn and Sprague Cleghorn joined the Wanderers , but Sprague broke a leg and was sidelined . </P> <H3> Rule changes ( edit ) </H3> <P> On January 9 , 1918 , the league decided to allow goaltenders to drop to the ice surface in order to make saves . This was the first implemented and amended rule change in the National Hockey League . It was done in response to Ottawa 's Clint Benedict constantly falling to make saves . According to NHL president Frank Calder , `` As far as I am concerned they can stand on their head ( s ) . '' </P> <H2> Regular season ( edit ) </H2> <P> The new league faced stiff competition for players from a number of other leagues including the Pacific Coast Hockey Association . Also , filling rosters was a challenge because the talent pool was decimated by World War I . </P> <P> The Wanderers were in trouble from the start of the season . They won their home opener but drew only 700 fans . The Wanderers then lost the next three games and owner Lichtenhein threatened to withdraw from the league unless he could get some players . Although they could have acquired Joe Malone in the draft , they turned to the PCHA and signed goaltender Hap Holmes . They also obtained permission to sign such players as Frank Foyston , Jack Walker and others if they could do so . The Wanderers loaned Holmes to the Seattle Metropolitans of the PCHA , but he eventually found his way back to the NHL when Seattle loaned him to Toronto . </P> Ruins of Montreal Arena <P> A league meeting was planned to deal with the situation , but on January 2 , 1918 , the matter was resolved when the Montreal Arena burned down , leaving the Canadiens and Wanderers homeless . The Canadiens moved into the 3,250 seat Jubilee Rink . The Hamilton arena offered to provide a home for the Wanderers , but Lichtenhein disbanded the team on January 4 , after the other clubs refused to give him any players . The remaining three teams would complete the season . </P> <P> The last active player from the inaugural season was Reg Noble , who retired following the 1933 Stanley Cup playoffs . </P> <H3> Highlights ( edit ) </H3> <P> The first game of the season , and in league history , featured the visiting Montreal Canadiens defeat the Ottawa Senators 7 - 4 , with Joe Malone scoring five of Montreal 's seven goals . On the same night a game featured the unnamed Toronto team versus the Wanderers . Montreal 's Dave Ritchie scored the first goal in NHL history and Harry Hyland had four goals ( the league 's first hat trick ) in the Wanderers ' 10 -- 9 victory , which would be their only one in the NHL ; Player - coach Art Ross earned the league 's first penalty . The game in Montreal was played in front of only 700 fans . </P> <P> On January 28 , when the Canadiens visited Toronto , players Alf Skinner and Joe Hall got into a stick - swinging duel . Both players received match penalties , $15 fines and were arrested by the Toronto Police for disorderly conduct , for which they received suspended sentences . </P> <P> In February , Ken Randall of Toronto was suspended pending payment of $35 in fines to the league . He brought $32 in paper money and 300 pennies . The pennies were refused . He tossed his bag of pennies onto the ice prior to the game against Ottawa , and one of the Ottawa players banged it with his stick , scattering the pennies around the ice . The game was delayed while the pennies were picked up . </P> <H3> Final standings ( edit ) </H3> <Table> First Half <Tr> <Th> </Th> <Th> GP </Th> <Th> </Th> <Th> </Th> <Th> </Th> <Th> Pts </Th> <Th> GF </Th> <Th> GA </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Montreal Canadiens </Td> <Td> 14 </Td> <Td> 10 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> <Td> 20 </Td> <Td> 81 </Td> <Td> 47 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Toronto Hockey Club </Td> <Td> 14 </Td> <Td> 8 </Td> <Td> 6 </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> <Td> 16 </Td> <Td> 71 </Td> <Td> 75 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Ottawa Senators </Td> <Td> 14 </Td> <Td> 5 </Td> <Td> 9 </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> <Td> 10 </Td> <Td> 67 </Td> <Td> 79 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Montreal Wanderers </Td> <Td> 6 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 5 </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 17 </Td> <Td> 35 </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Table> Second Half <Tr> <Th> </Th> <Th> GP </Th> <Th> </Th> <Th> </Th> <Th> </Th> <Th> Pts </Th> <Th> GF </Th> <Th> GA </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Toronto Hockey Club </Td> <Td> 8 </Td> <Td> 5 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> <Td> 10 </Td> <Td> 37 </Td> <Td> 34 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Ottawa Senators </Td> <Td> 8 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> <Td> 8 </Td> <Td> 35 </Td> <Td> 35 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Montreal Canadiens </Td> <Td> 8 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 5 </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> <Td> 6 </Td> <Td> 34 </Td> <Td> 37 </Td> </Tr> </Table> <P> Note : GP = Games Played , W = Wins , L = Losses , T = Ties , Pts = Points , GF = Goals For , GA = Goals Against Teams that qualified for the playoffs are highlighted in bold .

Etherington suggested that the 64 - bit A7 processor will not reach its full potential until developers create applications supporting it . Myriam Joire of Engadget found that the iPhone 5S could benefit significantly from the A7 if developers created applications optimized for the 64 - bit processor . Anand Lal Shimpi of AnandTech praised the phone 's A7 processor , describing it as `` seriously impressive '' , and stated that it was the most `` futureproof of any iPhone ever launched . As much as it pains me to use the word futureproof , if you are one of those people who likes to hold onto their device for a while - the iPhone 5S is as good a starting point as any . '' Scott Lowe of IGN also speaking highly of its 64 - bit processor , `` which has a substantial lead in processing power over the HTC One and Samsung Galaxy S4 , accounting for a graphics boost of up to 32 % and 38 % in CPU benchmarks . '' The debut of Apple 's 64 - bit A7 processor took rival Android smartphone makers by surprise , particularly Qualcomm whose own 64 - bit system - on - chip was not released until 2015 . </P> <P> Most reviewers recommended the iPhone 5S over the iPhone 5C which was released at the same time . The 5C retained almost the same hardware as the discontinued iPhone 5 , while the iPhone 5S featured substantially improved performance / features thanks to its new 64 - bit A7 processor , as well as extra storage space , all for a relatively small additional upfront cost over the iPhone 5C ( US $650 versus US $550 in March 2014 ) . This was especially the case when iOS 8 was released and both iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C were moved to the mid and low end of the iPhone range , respectively ; the iPhone 5S still had 16 or 32 GB storage available while the iPhone 5C had to make do with 8 GB storage with only 4.9 GB available to the user after installing iOS 8 . Furthermore , the 5C 's polycarbonate exterior received a mixed reception and was seen as a cost - cutting downgrade compared to the iPhone 5 's aluminum / glass case ; the 5S retained the latter design and looked even more premium due its additional gold finish . </P> <P> As of 2015 -- 16 , there were still a significant number of customers who preferred the 4 - inch screen size of iPhone 5S , which remained the second-most popular iPhone after the iPhone 6 and ahead of the iPhone 6S. Apple stated in their event that they sold 30 million 4 - inch iPhones in 2015 , even as that form factor was succeeded as the flagship iPhone by the redesigned larger display 4.7 / 5.5 - inch iPhone 6 and 6 Plus back in September 2014 . Furthermore , the 5 and 5S design was regarded as `` long been the golden child of Apple phone design and a benchmark for phones in general '' ( with the 5S 's gold finish adding a premium touch to the 5 's already well - regarded look ) , while the succeeding 6 and 6S design was less critically acclaimed as it `` felt a little bit wrong , as though you were holding a slick $650 bar of soap '' . The iPhone 5 was described as `` elegance rooted in the way the aluminum and glass work together . It felt streamlined , yet substantial , which is different from iPhone 6 , which feels substantial in size alone . Plus , unlike the ubiquitous rounded corners of the 6 , iPhone 5 did n't really look like anything else on the market at the time '' . However , the iPhone 5 / 5S design was not suited to scaling up , in contrast to the iPhone 6 / 6S which could better accommodate the growing consumer trend towards larger screen sizes and indeed spawned the 6 / 6S Plus phablet models . When Apple discontinued the iPhone 5S , it was replaced by the iPhone SE which outwardly appears almost identical to the 5S even as the SE 's internal hardware has been upgraded significantly . </P> <H3> Commercial reception ( edit ) </H3> <P> The iPhone 5S and 5C sold over nine million units in the first three days , setting a record for first weekend smartphone sales , with the 5S selling three times more units than the 5C . After the first day of release , 1 % of all iPhones in the US were iPhone 5Ss , while 0.3 % were iPhone 5Cs . Gene Munster of Piper Jaffray reported that the line at the Fifth Avenue Apple Store contained 1,417 people on release day , compared to 1,300 for the iPhone 4 in 2010 , and 549 for the iPhone 3G in 2008 on their respective release days . This was the first time that Apple launched two models simultaneously . The first - day release in China also contributed to the record sales result . </P> <P> On launch day , major in - stock shortages were reported in most stores , across all countries where the iPhone 5S initially went on sale . A great many customers in line outside Apple Stores worldwide were left disappointed due to severe shortages across all 5S models , with the gold model in particular being in highly limited supply .

The sub images were extracted from a 61 - hour time - lapse microscopy video , created using quantitative phase - contrast microscopy . The optical thickness is color - coded . With increasing thickness , color changes from gray to yellow , red , purple and finally black .

Biochemical events lead to characteristic cell changes ( morphology ) and death . These changes include blebbing , cell shrinkage , nuclear fragmentation , chromatin condensation , chromosomal DNA fragmentation , and global mRNA decay . The average adult human loses between 50 and 70 billion cells each day due to apoptosis . For an average human child between the ages of 8 and 14 , approximately 20 to 30 billion cells die a day . </P> <P> In contrast to necrosis , which is a form of traumatic cell death that results from acute cellular injury , apoptosis is a highly regulated and controlled process that confers advantages during an organism 's lifecycle . For example , the separation of fingers and toes in a developing human embryo occurs because cells between the digits undergo apoptosis . Unlike necrosis , apoptosis produces cell fragments called apoptotic bodies that phagocytic cells are able to engulf and remove before the contents of the cell can spill out onto surrounding cells and cause damage to them . </P> <P> Because apoptosis can not stop once it has begun , it is a highly regulated process . Apoptosis can be initiated through one of two pathways . In the intrinsic pathway the cell kills itself because it senses cell stress , while in the extrinsic pathway the cell kills itself because of signals from other cells . Both pathways induce cell death by activating caspases , which are proteases , or enzymes that degrade proteins . The two pathways both activate initiator caspases , which then activate executioner caspases , which then kill the cell by degrading proteins indiscriminately . </P> <P> Research on apoptosis has increased substantially since the early 1990s . In addition to its importance as a biological phenomenon , defective apoptotic processes have been implicated in a wide variety of diseases . Excessive apoptosis causes atrophy , whereas an insufficient amount results in uncontrolled cell proliferation , such as cancer . Some factors like Fas receptors and caspases promote apoptosis , while some members of the Bcl - 2 family of proteins inhibit apoptosis . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Discovery and etymology </Li> <Li> 2 Activation mechanisms <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Intrinsic pathway </Li> <Li> 2.2 Extrinsic pathway </Li> <Li> 2.3 Apoptosis model in amphibians </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Negative regulators of apoptosis </Li> <Li> 4 Proteolytic caspase cascade : Killing the cell <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Apoptotic cell disassembly </Li> <Li> 4.2 Removal of dead cells </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 Pathway knock - outs </Li> <Li> 6 Methods for distinguishing apoptotic from necrotic ( necroptotic ) cells </Li> <Li> 7 Implication in disease <Ul> <Li> 7.1 Defective pathways <Ul> <Li> 7.1. 1 Dysregulation of p53 </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 7.2 Inhibition <Ul> <Li> 7.2. 1 HeLa cell </Li> <Li> 7.2. 2 Treatments </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 7.3 Hyperactive apoptosis <Ul> <Li> 7.3. 1 Treatments </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 7.4 HIV progression </Li> <Li> 7.5 Viral infection </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 8 Plants </Li> <Li> 9 Caspase - independent apoptosis </Li> <Li> 10 Apoptosis protein subcellular location prediction </Li> <Li> 11 See also </Li> <Li> 12 Footnotes </Li> <Li> 13 References </Li> <Li> 14 Bibliography </Li> <Li> 15 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Discovery and etymology ( edit ) </H2> Main article : History of apoptosis research <P> German scientist Karl Vogt was first to describe the principle of apoptosis in 1842 . In 1885 , anatomist Walther Flemming delivered a more precise description of the process of programmed cell death . However , it was not until 1965 that the topic was resurrected . While studying tissues using electron microscopy , John Foxton Ross Kerr at University of Queensland was able to distinguish apoptosis from traumatic cell death . Following the publication of a paper describing the phenomenon , Kerr was invited to join Alastair R. Currie , as well as Andrew Wyllie , who was Currie 's graduate student , at University of Aberdeen . In 1972 , the trio published a seminal article in the British Journal of Cancer . Kerr had initially used the term programmed cell necrosis , but in the article , the process of natural cell death was called apoptosis . Kerr , Wyllie and Currie credited James Cormack , a professor of Greek language at University of Aberdeen , with suggesting the term apoptosis . Kerr received the Paul Ehrlich and Ludwig Darmstaedter Prize on March 14 , 2000 , for his description of apoptosis . He shared the prize with Boston biologist H. Robert Horvitz . </P> <P> For many years , neither `` apoptosis '' nor `` programmed cell death '' was a highly cited term . Two discoveries brought cell death from obscurity to a major field of research : identification of components of the cell death control and effector mechanisms , and linkage of abnormalities in cell death to human disease , in particular cancer . </P> <P> The 2002 Nobel Prize in Medicine was awarded to Sydney Brenner , Horvitz and John E. Sulston for their work identifying genes that control apoptosis . The genes were identified by studies in the nematode

However , there are exceptions within several provinces and the territory of Nunavut , including most of Saskatchewan , which observes Central Standard Time year - round even though the province is in the Mountain Zone , effectively putting it on DST year - round . Under the Canadian Constitution , laws related to timekeeping are a purely provincial or territorial matter . </P> <P> In regions where daylight saving time is used , it commences on the second Sunday of March , and standard time restarts on the first Sunday in November . </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <P> Five Canadian cities , by local ordinance , used Daylight Saving Time before 1918 : Brandon , Manitoba and Winnipeg , Manitoba ( already in 1916 ) as well as Halifax , Nova Scotia , Hamilton , Ontario , and Montreal , Quebec . St. John 's , Newfoundland ( now Newfoundland and Labrador ) , which did not become part of Canada until 1949 , also used DST before 1918 . </P> <P> In practice , since the late 1960s DST across Canada has been closely or completely synchronized with its observance in the United States to promote consistent economic and social interaction . When the United States extended DST in 1987 to the first Sunday in April , all DST - observing Canadian provinces followed suit to mimic the change . </P> <P> The latest United States change ( Energy Policy Act of 2005 ) , adding parts of March and November starting in 2007 , was adopted by the various provinces and territories on the following dates : </P> <Ul> <Li> Ontario , Manitoba - October 20 , 2005 </Li> <Li> Quebec - December 5 , 2005 </Li> <Li> Prince Edward Island - December 6 , 2005 </Li> <Li> New Brunswick - December 23 , 2005 </Li> <Li> Alberta - February 2 , 2006 </Li> <Li> Northwest Territories - March 4 , 2006 </Li> <Li> British Columbia - March 31 , 2006 </Li> <Li> Nova Scotia - April 25 , 2006 </Li> <Li> Yukon - July 14 , 2006 </Li> <Li> Newfoundland and Labrador - November 20 , 2006 , but officially announced on January 18 , 2007 </Li> <Li> Nunavut - February 19 , 2007 </Li> <Li> Saskatchewan - no official action taken , as most of the province does not change their clocks back in winter , but the small parts that have historically observed ' DST ' near Alberta and Manitoba are presumed to be authorized to have the start and end dates the same as Alberta and Manitoba . </Li> </Ul> <H2> By province or territory ( edit ) </H2> <H3> British Columbia ( edit ) </H3> <P> Most of British Columbia ( BC ) is on Pacific Time and observes DST . However , there are two main exceptions : </P> <P> Part of the Peace River Regional District of BC ( including the communities of Chetwynd , Dawson Creek , Hudson 's Hope , Fort St. John , Taylor and Tumbler Ridge ) is on Mountain Time and does not observe DST . This means that the region 's clocks are the same as those in Calgary and Edmonton in the winter , they are the same as those in Vancouver in the summer . The residents of Fort Nelson have voted to also stay on year - round MST since 2015 . </P> <P> The East Kootenay region of south - eastern BC ( including the communities of Cranbrook , Fernie , Golden and Invermere ) is on Mountain Time and observes DST .

The expertise of Ryan 's report , plus the application , persuaded Greer to offer him a permanent job in the CIA , but Ryan declined . </P> <P> While Ryan was still teaching at the Naval Academy , his family ( wife and new daughter Sally ) and he take a trip to London for research and vacationing . After spending the day sifting through Royal Navy archives doing research for a book on the British naval war in the Indian Ocean during World War II , Ryan walks to meet his family at a park . As he joins them , members of the Ulster Liberation Army ( ULA ) , an ultraviolent Maoist offshoot of the Marxist Provisional Irish Republican Army , led by Kevin O'Donnell , coincidentally attack a passing car containing the heir to the British throne , the Prince of Wales and his family in front of the Ryans . Ryan is wounded while intervening in the attack and foils their plan , killing one of the gunmen and capturing another . Ryan is later knighted by Queen Elizabeth II as an honorary Knight Commander of the Royal Victorian Order ; in the books , some British characters call him `` Sir John '' , but honorary knights are not permitted to use the style of `` Sir '' , but his American colleagues and friends delight in teasing him so . </P> <P> Sean Miller , the Irish gunman he captured , vows revenge on Ryan and his family ( only in the movie , not the book ) , but since he is going to Albany Prison on the Isle of Wight , the threat seems unrealistic . Ryan returns to the U.S. and the Naval Academy . When later O'Donnell and the ULA liberate Miller on his way to prison in a paddy wagon ( killing both police officers and civilians in the process ) , the Ryans become the target of their revenge -- particularly Miller 's .

He declines initially , only to accept it after a failed ULA attack on the Ryans mildly wounds his pregnant wife , but severely injures his daughter outside her school . Later , while Ryan hosts the Prince and Princess of Wales at his waterfront home on Chesapeake Bay , south of Annapolis in Maryland , the IRA conducts another attack against him , which Ryan , the Prince , and close friend , Navy Commander Robert Jackson foil . Following the incident and arrests of the ULA members and Miller ( whom Ryan nearly executes with his Browning Hi Power ) , Ryan is taken to the Naval Academy hospital , where he arrives just in time for the birth of Jack Ryan Jr. , his second child . </P> <P> In Red Rabbit , Ryan 's first CIA assignment is to London as a member of a liaison group to the British Secret Intelligence Service . The first order of business focuses on a mission to assist the defection of a KGB communications - center officer who has discovered that longtime KGB director Yuri Andropov ( 1914 - 1984 , head of KGB 1967 - 82 , later General Secretary of USSR 1982 - 1984 ) , had ordered Pope John Paul II 's attempted assassination . Although Ryan and a small team of British agents helps the `` Rabbit '' and his family get to the West , they fail to prevent the attack on the Pope ( which actually happened in real life in 1981 ) . Nevertheless , the Pope is only wounded and his would - be assassin captured , while the British agents execute his Bulgarian handler . `` Rabbit 's '' defection proves to be a major coup for both the American and British intelligence agencies . Ryan soon afterward suggests a nonmilitary long - term strategy to help hasten the Soviet Union 's collapse and the end of the half - century long Cold War . </P> <P> In The Hunt for Red October , Captain First Rank Marko Ramius , the Soviet Navy 's top submarine commander , takes command of the Красный Октябрь ( Krasny Oktyabr , or in English , Red October ) , the newest Typhoon - class ballistic missile submarine , with which he plans to defect with his officers . Having briefly met Captain Ramius at an embassy function several years before , Ryan is asked by Admiral Greer to brief the President 's National Security Adviser Jeffrey Pelt and his staff in his first trip to the White House on Ramius ' background and the deadly new capabilities of Red October 's ' secret revolutionary silent jet propulsion drive system . Ryan recognizes that the renegade ethnic Lithuanian captain may want to change sides rather than attack the West and works to establish contact with him at sea while onboard the tailing American submarine USS Dallas and work to get him and his sub secretly to the U.S. , eventually succeeding . </P> <P> In The Cardinal of the Kremlin , Ryan is reassigned to Langley , at CIA headquarters .

Objective correlative - wikipedia <H1> Objective correlative </H1> Jump to : navigation , search <P> An objective correlative is a literary term referring to an objective as well symbolic article used to correlate explicit , rather than implicit , access to traditionally inexplicable concepts such as emotion or color . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Theory </Li> <Li> 2 Origin of terminology </Li> <Li> 3 Criticisms </Li> <Li> 4 Examples </Li> <Li> 5 See also </Li> <Li> 6 Footnotes </Li> <Li> 7 References </Li> <Li> 8 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Theory ( edit ) </H2> <P> The theory of the objective correlative as it relates to literature was largely developed through the writings of the poet and literary critic T.S. Eliot , who is associated with the literary group called the New Critics . Helping define the objective correlative , Eliot 's essay `` Hamlet and His Problems '' , republished in his book The Sacred Wood : Essays on Poetry and Criticism discusses his view of Shakespeare 's incomplete development of Hamlet 's emotions in the play Hamlet . Eliot uses Lady Macbeth 's state of mind as an example of the successful objective correlative : `` The artistic ' inevitability ' lies in this complete adequacy of the external to the emotion ... . '' , as a contrast to Hamlet . According to Eliot , the feelings of Hamlet are not sufficiently supported by the story and the other characters surrounding him . The objective correlative 's purpose is to express the character 's emotions by showing rather than describing feelings as discussed earlier by Plato and referred to by Peter Barry in his book Beginning Theory : An Introduction to Literary and Cultural Theory as `` ... perhaps little more than the ancient distinction ( first made by Plato ) between mimesis and diegesis ... . '' ( 28 ) . According to Formalist critics , this action of creating an emotion through external factors and evidence linked together and thus forming an objective correlative should produce an author 's detachment from the depicted character and unite the emotion of the literary work . The `` occasion '' of E. Montale is a further form of correlative . </P> <H2> Origin of terminology ( edit ) </H2> <P> The term was first coined by the American painter and poet Washington Allston ( 1779 - 1843 ) , was introduced by T.S. Eliot , rather casually , into his essay `` Hamlet and His Problems '' ( 1919 ) ; its subsequent vogue in literary criticism , Eliot said , astonished him . In `` Hamlet and His Problems '' , Eliot used the term exclusively to refer to his claimed artistic mechanism whereby emotion is evoked in the audience : </P> <Table> <Tr> <Td> `` </Td> <Td> The only way of expressing emotion in the form of art is by finding an `` objective correlative '' ; in other words , a set of objects , a situation , a chain of events which shall be the formula of that particular emotion ; such that when the external facts , which must terminate in sensory experience , are given , the emotion is immediately evoked . </Td> <Td> '' </Td> </Tr> </Table> <P> It seems to be in deference to this principle that Eliot famously described the play Hamlet as `` most certainly an artistic failure '' : Eliot felt that Hamlet 's strong emotions `` exceeded the facts '' of the play , which is to say they were not supported by an `` objective correlative '' . He acknowledged that such a circumstance is `` something which every person of sensibility has known '' ; but felt that in trying to represent it dramatically , `` Shakespeare tackled a problem which proved too much for him '' . </P> <H2> Criticisms ( edit ) </H2> <P> One possible criticism of Eliot 's theory includes his assumption that an author 's intentions concerning expression will be understood in one way only . This point is stated by Balachandra Rajan as quoted in David A. Goldfarb 's `` New Reference Works in Literary Theory '' with these words : `` Eliot argues that there is a verbal formula for any given state of emotion which , when found and used , will evoke that state and no other . '' </P> <H2> Examples ( edit ) </H2> <P> A famous haiku by Yosa Buson entitled , The Piercing Chill I Feel illustrates the use of objective correlative within poetry : </P> <P> The piercing chill I feel : </P> <P> my dead wife 's comb , in our bedroom , </P> under my heel ... <P> In the Clint Eastwood movie Jersey Boys , songwriter Bob Gaudio of The 4 Seasons is asked who the girl is in his song Cry For Me . He makes reference to T.S. Eliot 's topic , `` the Objective Correlative '' , as the subject being every girl , or any girl . In adherence to this reference , the author allows himself the literary license to step outside the scope of his personal experience , and to conjecture about the emotions and responses inherent with the situation , and utilize the third party perspective in the first party presentation . </P> <H2> See also ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> Affect </Li> <Li> Pathetic fallacy </Li> <Li> Thing theory </Li> </Ul> <H2> Footnotes ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> Jump up ^ ( 1 ) </Li> <Li> Jump up ^ Eliot , T.S. `` '' Hamlet and His Problems .

a bishop , since the ontological effect of Holy Orders is permanent . On the other hand , titles such as archbishop or patriarch imply no ontological alteration , and existing bishops who rise to those offices do not require further ordination . </P> <P> Sacramentally , all bishops are equal . According to jurisdiction , office , and privileges , however , various ranks are distinguished , as indicated below . All bishops are `` vicars of Christ '' . </P> <H3> Pope ( bishop of Rome ) ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Pope Pope Francis , bishop of Rome <P> The pope is the bishop of Rome . He is also , by virtue of that office : </P> <P> Vicar of Jesus Christ , Successor of the Prince of the Apostles , Supreme Pontiff of the Universal Church , Patriarch of the Latin Church , Primate of Italy , Archbishop and Metropolitan of the Roman Province , Sovereign of the Vatican City State , Servant of the servants of God . </P> Offices and titles ( edit ) <P> `` Pope '' is a pronominal honorific , not an office or a title , meaning `` Father '' ( the common honorific for all clergy ) . The honorific `` pope '' was from the early 3rd century used for any bishop in the West , and is known in Greek as far back as Homer 's Odyssey ( 6 : 57 ). ( 18 ) In the East , `` pope '' is still a common form of address for clergy in the Russian Orthodox Church , and is the style of the Bishop of Alexandria . Pope Marcellinus ( d . 304 ) is the first Bishop of Rome shown in sources to have had the title `` pope '' used of him . From the 6th century , the imperial chancery of Constantinople normally reserved this designation for the Bishop of Rome. ( 18 ) From the early 6th century , it began to be confined in the West to the Bishop of Rome , a practice that was firmly in place by the 11th century , when Pope Gregory VII declared it reserved for the Bishop of Rome. ( citation needed ) </P> <P> As bishop of the Church of Rome , he is successor to the co-patrons of that local Church , Saint Peter and Saint Paul . As such , the Church of Rome , and its bishop , has always had a prominence in the Catholic communion and at least to some degree primacy among his peers , the other bishops , as Peter had a certain primacy among his peers , the other apostles . The exact nature of that primacy is one of the most significant ecumenical issues of the age , and has developed as a doctrine throughout the entire history of the Church . </P> <P> The Catechism of the Catholic Church , quoting the Second Vatican Council 's document Lumen gentium , states : `` The pope , Bishop of Rome and Peter 's successor , ' is the perpetual and visible source and foundation of the unity both of the bishops and of the whole company of the faithful . ' '' Communion with bishop of Rome has become such a significant identifier of Catholic identity that at times the Catholic Church has been known in its entirety as `` Roman Catholic '' , though this is inaccurate in Catholic theology ( ecclesiology ) . </P> <P> Three other of the pope 's offices stem directly from his office as bishop of the Church of Rome . As the Latin Church owes its identity and development to its origins in the liturgical , juridical , and theological patrimony of Rome , the bishop of Rome is de facto the patriarch of the Latin Church . According to no less than Pope Benedict XVI , there has been much ' confusion ' between the pope 's primacy as patriarch of the western church and his primacy as first patriarch among equals , that this `` failure to distinguish '' between the roles and responsibilities of these two distinct positions lead in time to the `` extreme centralization of the Catholic Church '' and the schism between East and West . </P> <P> As the first local Church of Italy , the bishop of Rome is the Primate of Italy and is empowered to appoint the president of the Italian Bishops ' Conference . </P> <P> The Church of Rome is also the principal church of the Province of Rome , so the bishop of Rome is Archbishop and Metropolitan of the Roman province . </P> <P> As a bishop , the pope is referred to as a Vicar of Christ . This title was common to all bishops from the fourth through twelfth centuries , reserved to the bishop of Rome from the twelfth through early twentieth centuries , and restored to all bishops at the Second Vatican Council . </P> <P> The pope resides in Vatican City , an independent state within the city of Rome , set up by the 1929 Lateran Pacts between the Holy See and Italy . As popes were sovereigns of the papal states ( 754 -- 1870 ) , so do they exercise absolute civil authority in the microstate of Vatican City since 1929 . </P> <P> Interestingly , ambassadors are accredited not to Vatican City State but to the Holy See , which was a subject of international law even before the state was instituted . The body of officials that assist the Pope in governance of the Church as a whole is known as the Roman curia . The term `` Holy See '' ( i.e. of Rome ) is generally used only of Pope and curia , because the Code of Canon Law , which concerns governance of the Latin Church as a whole and not internal affairs of the see ( diocese ) of Rome itself , necessarily uses the term in this technical sense .

The original 1939 Keep Calm and Carry On poster <P> Keep Calm and Carry On was a motivational poster produced by the British government in 1939 in preparation for World War II . The poster was intended to raise the morale of the British public , threatened with widely predicted mass air attacks on major cities . Although 2.45 million copies were printed , and although the Blitz did in fact take place , the poster was hardly ever publicly displayed and was little known until a copy was rediscovered in 2000 at Barter Books , a bookshop in Alnwick . It has since been re-issued by a number of private companies , and has been used as the decorative theme for a range of products . </P> <P> Evocative of the Victorian belief in British stoicism -- the `` stiff upper lip '' , self - discipline , fortitude , and remaining calm in adversity -- the poster has become recognised around the world . It was thought that only two original copies survived until a collection of approximately 15 was brought in to the Antiques Roadshow in 2012 by the daughter of an ex-Royal Observer Corps member . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Design and production </Li> <Li> 1.2 Later developments </Li> <Li> 1.3 Rediscovery and commercialisation </Li> <Li> 1.4 Trademark claims </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Imitations </Li> <Li> 3 See also </Li> <Li> 4 References </Li> <Li> 5 Further reading </Li> <Li> 6 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Design and production ( edit ) </H3> `` Freedom Is in Peril '' `` Your Courage '' <P> The Keep Calm and Carry On poster was designed by the Ministry of Information during the period of 27 June to 6 July 1939 . It was produced as part of a series of three `` Home Publicity '' posters ( the others read `` Your Courage , Your Cheerfulness , Your Resolution Will Bring Us Victory '' and `` Freedom Is in Peril / Defend It With All Your Might '' ) . Each poster showed the slogan under a representation of a `` Tudor Crown '' ( a symbol of the state ) . They were intended to be distributed to strengthen morale in the event of a wartime disaster , such as mass bombing of major cities using high explosives and poison gas , which was widely expected within hours of an outbreak of war . </P> <P> A career civil servant named A.P. Waterfield came up with `` Your Courage '' as `` a rallying war - cry that will bring out the best in everyone of us and put us in an offensive mood at once '' . Others involved in the planning of the early posters included : John Hilton , Professor of Industrial Relations at Cambridge University , responsible overall as Director of Home Publicity ; William Surrey Dane , managing director at Odhams Press ; Gervas Huxley , former head of publicity for the Empire Marketing Board ; William Codling , controller of HMSO ; Harold Nicolson , MP ( often misspelled as `` Nicholson '' in paperwork ) ; W.G.V. Vaughan , who became Director of the General Production Division ( GPD ) ; H.V. Rhodes , who later wrote an occasional paper on setting up a new government department ; Ivison Macadam ; `` Mr Cruthley '' ; and `` Mr Francis '' . Ernest Wallcousins was the artist tasked with creating the poster designs . </P> <P> Detailed planning for the posters had started in April 1939 and the eventual designs were prepared after meetings between officials from the Ministry of Information and HM Treasury on 26 June 1939 and between officials from the Ministry of Information and HMSO on 27 June 1939 . Roughs of the poster were completed on 6 July 1939 , and the final designs were agreed by the Home Secretary Samuel Hoare , 1st Viscount Templewood on 4 August 1939 . Printing began on 23 August 1939 , the day that Nazi Germany and the USSR signed the Molotov -- Ribbentrop Pact , and the posters were ready to be placed up within 24 hours of the outbreak of war . </P> <P> Almost 2,500,000 copies of Keep Calm and Carry On were printed between 23 August 1939 and 3 September 1939 but the poster was not sanctioned for immediate public display . It was instead decided that copies of the poster should remain in `` cold storage '' for use after serious air raids ( with resources transferred to Your Courage and Freedom is in Peril ) . Copies of Keep Calm and Carry On were retained until April 1940 , but stocks were then pulped as part of the wider Paper Salvage campaign . An October 1940 edition of the Yorkshire Post records the poster being hung in a shop in Leeds . </P> <P> The remainder of the Ministry of Information publicity campaign was cancelled in October 1939 following criticism of its cost and impact . Many people claimed not to have seen the posters ; while those who did see them regarded them as patronising and divisive . Design historian Susannah Walker regards the campaign as `` a resounding failure '' and reflective of a misjudgement by upper - class civil servants of the mood of the people . </P> <P> The typeface is often assumed to be Gill Sans , which is very close though not exact ( see the terminals of the ' C ' , for

In addition to the team broadcasts , the NFL Audio Pass Super Bowl package included various foreign language broadcasts , live feeds from the stadium PA announcer , archives , and `` press box '' stat play - by - play . </P> <H3> Free previews ( edit ) </H3> <P> In the past , from spring until August 1 , NFL Field Pass opened up its archives to `` free preview . '' All games from the past years were available for free during this window , as is live coverage of the NFL Draft and other live multimedia . This was not the case in 2009 , though the free preview returned in 2010 . Until its demise in 2007 , NFL Europe live video broadcasts were also available on the service . </P> <H3> Broadcast availability ( edit ) </H3> <P> Prior to 2009 , the national radio broadcasts on the Westwood One network ( including the Pro Bowl , a Westwood One exclusive ) were not available on NFL Field Pass . As part of a renegotiation of the broadcast contract , national Westwood One games , including all prime - time games , the Pro Bowl , and all playoff games , became available on Field Pass beginning in the 2009 NFL season . ( Westwood One 's Sunday afternoon doubleheader broadcasts , which are negotiated with individual teams separately from the national package , remain unavailable on NFL Audio Pass , as do those of the rival Sports USA Radio Network and Compass Media Networks . ) Spanish - language broadcasts from Univision Radio and United Stations Radio Networks are also now available on NFL Audio Pass , although they are available for free on the Univision - NFL joint project , NFLatino.com . </P> <H2> Developments ( edit ) </H2> <P> An Internet television spinoff service , NFL Game Pass , debuted in 2008 for online users outside of North America . </P> <P> NFL Field Pass and Game Pass during the 2009 season had a major outage on the season 's opening Sunday ( September 13 ) which left its subscribers without access to the service . </P> <P> NFL Field Pass was renamed NFL Audio Pass prior to the 2010 season . </P> <P> Starting with the 2015 season , Game Pass became available in North America , replacing the similar NFL Game Rewind service .

The game is set on the fictional island of Isla Nublar , previously featured in the films Jurassic Park and Jurassic World , as well as the surrounding islands of the fictional Las Cinco Muertes Archipelago . The player 's ultimate goal is to develop five - star parks across all islands . The game features approximately 40 dinosaur species at launch . Dr. Ian Malcolm assists the player through the game , and players will meet other key figures representing three branches of the park 's development : entertainment , security and science . Each of these characters will push their agenda at the players , trying to convince players to develop the park in accordance to their advice . They give players `` contracts '' to complete , which are a series of goals and objectives . These contracts add narrative to the game , as well as rewards and reputation in their respective domains . Players can also access the INGEN Database to know more about the lore of the game 's world . Entertainment , security and science all feeds into the parks ' ratings . The five islands , each with different characteristics and challenges , will gradually unlock with sufficient park ratings . </P> <P> Essential buildings and facilities featured in the game include the Expedition center , which sends palaeontologists to fossil dig sites so as to obtain dinosaurs DNA content . DNA sequencing unlocks new dinosaurs and updates their statistics , such as lifespan . With sufficient DNA content , players can use the Hammond Research Center to breed and incubate the dinosaurs . Players can also improve the gene of the dinosaurs and evolve them by integrating the DNA of modern species into these dinosaurs gene to fill their gaps . These modifications to dinosaurs ' DNA will change the dinosaurs base statistics , such as their level of aggressiveness to their appearance . Players need to build enclosures to contain dinosaurs for visitors ' viewing . The needs of different dinosaurs , such as the type of food they eat and the extent of the social interactions they require , must be met to keep them healthy and satisfied . The game features a terrain tool which allows players to modify the environment , such as planting trees and creating water sources . Dinosaurs , controlled by artificial intelligence , will interact with each other and with the environment . For instance , they will attack a competing species when they meet with each other . </P> <P> Players also need to construct various entertainment rides , as well as amenities such as restaurants and shops to please the guests . An example of tourist attraction is the Gyrosphere and the monorail from Jurassic World . Players can also use the game 's photo mode to take pictures of dinosaurs , which also help the park to earn money and publicity . As the construction and expansion of the park , and the incubation of dinosaurs require a large sum of money , entertainment branch is the main source of the park 's income . Each entertainment facilities and amenities come with their own management system , with players being able to set and adjust entry fees as well as the amount of staff present in each facility . </P> <P> There are various emergency situations that may happen in the park , ranging from power failures , unpredictable weather , to dinosaurs breakouts , which must be addressed by players in order to ensure guests ' safety and happiness . Players can build an ACU Center and a Ranger Station , which are responsible for maintaining the park 's security , from sedating and transporting dinosaurs to fixing fences . Players can also control vehicles such as helicopters and 4x4 trucks to do certain tasks . Players can also play as the enclosure maintenance staff from a first - person perspective . Emergency shelters which protect the guests , as well as other security structures like power network redundancies and storm warning centers , can be built . Many of these security facilities can be upgraded to strengthen their efficiency when dealing with emergencies . </P> <H2> Development and release ( edit ) </H2> <P> The game is based on the 2015 film Jurassic World .

Triple Entente - wikipedia <H1> Triple Entente </H1> Jump to : navigation , search European military alliances prior to World War I <P> The Triple Entente ( from French entente ( ɑ̃tɑ̃t ) `` friendship , understanding , agreement '' ) refers to the understanding linking the Russian Empire , the French Third Republic , and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland after the signing of the Anglo - Russian Entente on 31 August 1907 . The understanding between the three powers , supplemented by agreements with Japan and Portugal , was a powerful counterweight to the Triple Alliance of Germany , Austria - Hungary , and Italy . </P> <P> However , Italy did not side with Germany and Austria during World War I and joined the Entente instead in the Treaty of London ( 1915 ) . </P> <P> Historians continue to debate the importance of the alliance system as one of the causes of World War I . At the start of World War I in 1914 , all three Triple Entente members entered it as Allied Powers against the Central Powers : Germany and Austria - Hungary . </P> <P> However , the Triple Entente , unlike the Triple Alliance or the Franco - Russian Alliance , was not an alliance of mutual defense . Thus , Britain felt free to make its own foreign policy decisions in the 1914 July Crisis . </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Background <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Franco - Russian Alliance </Li> <Li> 1.2 Entente cordiale </Li> <Li> 1.3 Anglo - Russian Convention of 1907 </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Britain </Li> <Li> 3 France </Li> <Li> 4 Russia </Li> <Li> 5 See also </Li> <Li> 6 References </Li> <Li> 7 Sources </Li> </Ul> <H2> Background ( edit ) </H2> <P> Otto von Bismarck planned to isolate France diplomatically ; he feared that France 's revanchist aspirations might make it attempt to regain its losses suffered in 1871 after the Franco - Prussian War . The alliance also served to fight against progressive sentiments , which the conservative rulers found unsettling , such as the First International . </P> <P> However , the League faced great difficulty with the growing tensions between Russia and Austria - Hungary , mainly over the Balkans , where the rise of nationalism and the continued decline of the Ottoman Empire made many former Ottoman provinces struggle for independence . </P> <P> The situation in the Balkans , especially in the wake of the Serbo - Bulgarian War and the 1878 Treaty of Berlin , which made Russia feel cheated of its gains made in the Russo - Turkish War , prevented the League from being renewed in 1887 . </P> <P> In an attempt to stop Russia from allying with France , Bismarck signed the secret Reinsurance Treaty with Russia in 1887 . The treaty assured that both parties would remain neutral if war broke out . </P> <P> The alliance between Russia and France and Bismarck ′ s exclusion of Russia from the German financial market in 1887 prevented the treaty from being renewed in 1890 . That ended the alliance between Germany and Russia . </P> <H3> Franco - Russian Alliance ( edit ) </H3> <P> After the Reinsurance Treaty was not renewed in 1890 , Russian leaders grew alarmed at the country 's diplomatic isolation and joined the Franco - Russian Alliance in 1894 . </P> <H3> Entente cordiale ( edit ) </H3> <P> In 1904 , Britain and France signed a series of agreements , the Entente cordiale , mostly in solving colonial disputes . </P> <P> That heralded the end of British splendid isolation and was partly a response to growing German antagonism , as expressed in the expansion of the Kaiserliche Marine ( Imperial Navy ) to become a battle fleet that could threaten the supremacy of the British Royal Navy . </P> <P> The Entente , unlike the Triple Alliance and the Franco - Russian Alliance , was not an alliance of mutual defence and so Britain was free to make its own foreign policy decisions in 1914 . As British Foreign Office Official Eyre Crowe minuted , `` The fundamental fact of course is that the Entente is not an alliance . For purposes of ultimate emergencies it may be found to have no substance at all . For the Entente is nothing more than a frame of mind , a view of general policy which is shared by the governments of two countries , but which may be , or become , so vague as to lose all content '' . </P> <H3> Anglo - Russian Convention of 1907 ( edit ) </H3> <P> In 1907 , Britain and Russia signed the Anglo - Russian Convention of 1907 to end their rivalry in Central Asia , nicknamed The Great Game . </P> <H2> Britain ( edit ) </H2> <P> In the last decade of the nineteenth century , Britain continued its policy of `` splendid isolation '' , with its primary focus on defending its massive overseas empire . However , by the early 1900s , the German threat had increased dramatically , and in Britain thought it was in need of allies . For most of the 19th century , Britain had regarded France and Russia as its two most dangerous rivals , but with the growing threat of Germany , policy began to change for several reasons : </P> <Ol> <Li> France and Britain had signed five separate agreements regarding spheres of influence in North Africa in 1904 , the Entente cordiale . The Tangier Crisis later encouraged co-operation between the two countries from their mutual fear of apparent German expansionism . </Li> <Li> Russia was defeated in the Russo - Japanese War , which resulted in less concern over Russian imperialism and encouraged Russia to secure its position elsewhere . France was already allied to Russia in the Dual Alliance . </Li> <Li> Britain was frightened about the rising threat of German imperialism . Kaiser Wilhelm II had announced to

duties in the justice system . </Li> <Li> The defendant committed murder by means of explosives . </Li> <Li> The defendant personally and intentionally committed the homicide in course of furtherance of another specified felony such as rape . </Li> <Li> The murder was committed in an effort to conceal the commission of a crime , or to conceal the identity of the perpetrator of a crime . </Li> <Li> The murder was committed after the defendant had escaped from a state , county , or municipal penal or correctional facility and before recapture . </Li> </Ol> <H2> Early History ( edit ) </H2> <P> The first death sentence carried out under the territorial government , apart from the hanging of the 5 Cayuse in 1850 , came on April 18 , 1851 , when William Kendall was hanged in Salem . Kendall 's sentence was handed down by Judge William Strong of the Oregon Supreme Court . </P> <P> Since 1904 , about 60 Five Cayuse Native American men were taken to Oregon City , tried and sentenced to hang . Before their execution on June 3 , 1850 , the leader , Tiloukaikt , accepted Catholic last rites . Tiloukaikt spoke on the gallows , `` Did not your missionaries teach us that Christ died to save his people ? So we die to save our people . '' Capital punishment was made explicitly legal by statute in 1864 , and executions have been carried out exclusively at the Oregon State Penitentiary in Salem since 1904 . The death penalty was outlawed between 1914 and 1920 , again between 1964 and 1978 , and then again between a 1981 Oregon Supreme Court ruling and a 1984 ballot measure . </P> <P> Oregon voters amended the Constitution in 1914 , to repeal the death penalty , by a margin of 50.04 % . The repeal was an initiative of Governor Oswald West . However , the death penalty was restored in 1920 with 56 % of voters favoring its use . From 1864 to 1931 , executions were carried out by hanging . However , beginning with the execution of LeRoy Hershel McCarthy , on January 30 , 1939 , Oregon began using lethal gas in gas - chamber executions . The state executed seventeen men in this manner . The last of these gas - inhalation executions took place on 20 August 1962 , with the execution of Leeroy Sanford McGahuey . In 1964 voters passed Measure 1 , a constitutional amendment prohibiting capital punishment , with 60 % of voters approving . Governor Mark Hatfield commuted the sentences of three death row inmates two days later . </P> <P> Voters reenacted the death penalty in the general election of 1978 , by statute ; Measure 8 required the death penalty in certain murder cases . Measure 8 was overturned by the Oregon Supreme Court in 1981 , on the grounds that it denied defendants the right to be tried by a jury of their peers . </P> <P> In 1984 , Measure 6 amended the state constitution to once more make the death penalty legal . Measure 7 , a statutory measure passed in the same year , required a separate sentencing hearing before a jury in cases of aggravated murder . </P> <P> In 1988 , the U.S. Supreme Court ruling in Penry v. Lynaugh affected the Oregon death penalty , because Oregon 's law is based on the Texas law involved in the case . Seventeen Oregon cases were remanded for resentencing following Penry ; eight convicts were re-sentenced to death . </P> <P> In 2000 , the Benetton Group featured several inmates on Oregon 's death row in a controversial anti-death penalty advertising campaign . Cesar Barone , Conan Wayne Hale , Jesse Caleb Compton , and Alberto Reyes Camarena were featured in the ad . </P> <P> Between 1904 and 1994 , 115 people were sentenced to death in Oregon , and 58 of those were executed . </P> <H2> List of individuals executed since 1978 ( edit ) </H2> <P> Two people have been executed in Oregon since the reinstatement of capital punishment in 1978 .

As a result of the long - standing controversy over slavery , war broke out in April 1861 , when Confederate forces attacked Fort Sumter in South Carolina , shortly after U.S. President Abraham Lincoln was inaugurated . The nationalists of the Union proclaimed loyalty to the U.S. Constitution . They faced secessionists of the Confederate States , who advocated for states ' rights to expand slavery . </P> <P> Among the 34 U.S. states in February 1861 , seven Southern slave states individually declared their secession from the U.S. to form the Confederate States of America , or the South . The Confederacy grew to include eleven slave states . The Confederacy was never diplomatically recognized by the United States government , nor was it recognized by any foreign country ( although the United Kingdom and France granted it belligerent status ) . The states that remained loyal to the U.S. ( including the border states where slavery was legal ) were known as the Union or the North . </P> <P> The Union and Confederacy quickly raised volunteer and conscription armies that fought mostly in the South over four years . The Union finally won the war when General Robert E. Lee surrendered to General Ulysses S. Grant at the Battle of Appomattox Court House , followed by a series of surrenders by Confederate generals throughout the southern states . Four years of intense combat left 620,000 to 750,000 people dead , a higher number than the number of U.S. military deaths in all other wars combined ( at least until approximately the Vietnam War ) . Much of the South 's infrastructure was destroyed , especially the transportation systems , railroads , mills and houses . The Confederacy collapsed , slavery was abolished , and 4 million slaves were freed . The Reconstruction Era ( 1863 -- 1877 ) overlapped and followed the war , with the process of restoring national unity , strengthening the national government , and granting civil rights to freed slaves throughout the country . The Civil War is the most studied and written about episode in U.S. history . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Prelude to war </Li> <Li> 2 Causes of secession <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Slavery </Li> <Li> 2.2 Sectionalism </Li> <Li> 2.3 Protectionism </Li> <Li> 2.4 States ' rights </Li> <Li> 2.5 Territorial crisis </Li> <Li> 2.6 National elections <Ul> <Li> 2.6. 1 Nationalism and honor </Li> <Li> 2.6. 2 Lincoln 's election </Li> </Ul> </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Outbreak of the war <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Secession crisis </Li> <Li> 3.2 Battle of Fort Sumter </Li> <Li> 3.3 Attitude of the border states </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 War <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Mobilization <Ul> <Li> 4.1. 1 Motivation </Li> <Li> 4.1. 2 Prisoners </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4.2 Naval war <Ul> <Li> 4.2. 1 Union blockade <Ul> <Li> 4.2. 1.1 Modern navy evolves </Li> <Li> 4.2. 1.2 Blockade runners </Li> <Li> 4.2. 1.3 Economic impact </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4.2. 2 Rivers </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4.3 Eastern theater </Li> <Li> 4.4 Western theater </Li> <Li> 4.5 Trans - Mississippi </Li> <Li> 4.6 End of the war <Ul> <Li> 4.6. 1 Conquest of Virginia </Li> <Li> 4.6. 2 Confederacy surrenders </Li> </Ul> </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 Diplomacy </Li> <Li> 6 Union victory and

It was adopted in its present form during a meeting of the Constituent Assembly held on 22 July 1947 , and it became the official flag of the Dominion of India on 15 August 1947 . The flag was subsequently retained as that of the Republic of India . In India , the term `` tricolour '' ( Hindi : तिरंगा , translit . Tiraṅgā ) almost always refers to the Indian national flag . The flag is based on the Swaraj flag , a flag of the Indian National Congress designed by Pingali Venkayya . </P> <P> By law , the flag is to be made of khadi , a special type of hand - spun cloth or silk , made popular by Mahatma Gandhi . The manufacturing process and specifications for the flag are laid out by the Bureau of Indian Standards . The right to manufacture the flag is held by the Khadi Development and Village Industries Commission , who allocates it to regional groups . As of 2009 , the Karnataka Khadi Gramodyoga Samyukta Sangha has been the sole manufacturer of the flag . </P> <P> Usage of the flag is governed by the Flag Code of India and other laws relating to the national emblems . The original code prohibited use of the flag by private citizens except on national days such as the Independence day and the Republic Day . In 2002 , on hearing an appeal from a private citizen , Naveen Jindal , the Supreme Court of India directed the Government of India to amend the code to allow flag usage by private citizens . Subsequently , the Union Cabinet of India amended the code to allow limited usage . The code was amended once more in 2005 to allow some additional use including adaptations on certain forms of clothing . The flag code also governs the protocol of flying the flag and its use in conjunction with other national and non-national flags . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Design and construction details </Li> <Li> 2 Symbolism </Li> <Li> 3 History </Li> <Li> 4 Manufacturing process </Li> <Li> 5 Protocol <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Display </Li> <Li> 5.2 Half - mast </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 See also </Li> <Li> 7 Footnotes </Li> <Li> 8 Notes </Li> <Li> 9 References </Li> <Li> 10 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Design and construction details </H2> <Table> Sizes of the National Flag <Tr> <Th> Flag size </Th> <Th> Length and width ( mm ) </Th> <Th> Size of Ashoka Chakra ( mm ) </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> 6300 × 4200 </Td> <Td> 1295 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> 3600 × 2400 </Td> <Td> 740 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> 2700 × 1800 </Td> <Td> 555 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> 1800 × 1200 </Td> <Td> 370 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 5 </Td> <Td> 1350 × 900 </Td> <Td> 280 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 6 </Td> <Td> 900 × 600 </Td> <Td> 185 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 7 </Td> <Td> 450 × 300 </Td> <Td> 90 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 8 </Td> <Td> 225 × 150 </Td> <Td> 40 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 9 </Td> <Td> 150 × 100 </Td> <Td> 25 </Td> </Tr> </Table> <P> According to the Flag code of India , the Indian flag has a ratio of two by three ( where the length of the flag is 1.5 times that of the width ) .

The size of the Ashoka Chakra is not specified in the Flag code , but it has twenty - four spokes that are evenly spaced . In section 4.3. 1 of `` IS1 : Manufacturing standards for the Indian Flag '' , there is a chart that details the size of the Ashoka Chakra on the nine specific sizes of the national flag .

Radiocarbon dating places the exact beginning of the New Kingdom between 1570 BC and 1544 BC . The New Kingdom followed the Second Intermediate Period and was succeeded by the Third Intermediate Period . It was Egypt 's most prosperous time and marked the peak of its power . </P> <P> The later part of this period , under the 19th and 20th Dynasties ( 1292 -- 1069 BC ) , is also known as the Ramesside period .

Similarly , in response to very successful 17th century attacks during the Second Intermediate Period by the powerful Kingdom of Kush , the rulers of the New Kingdom felt compelled to expand far south into Nubia and to hold wide territories in the Near East .

Queen Hatshepsut concentrated on expanding Egypt 's external trade by sending a commercial expedition to the land of Punt . </P> <P> Thutmose III ( `` the Napoleon of Egypt '' ) expanded Egypt 's army and wielded it with great success to consolidate the empire created by his predecessors . This resulted in a peak in Egypt 's power and wealth during the reign of Amenhotep III . During the reign of Thutmose III ( c. 1479 -- 1425 BC ) , Pharaoh , originally referring to the king 's palace , became a form of address for the person who was king . </P> <P> One of the best - known 18th Dynasty pharaohs is Amenhotep IV , who changed his name to Akhenaten in honor of the Aten , a representation of the Egyptian god , Ra . His exclusive worship of the Aten is often interpreted as history 's first instance of monotheism . Akhenaten 's wife , Nefertiti , contributed a great deal to his new take on the Egyptian religion . Nefertiti was bold enough to perform rituals to Aten . Akhenaten 's religious fervor is cited as the reason why he and his wife were subsequently written out of Egyptian history . Under his reign , in the 14th century BC , Egyptian art flourished under a distinctive style . ( See Amarna Period . ) </P> <P> Towards the end of the 18th Dynasty , the situation had changed radically . Aided by Akhenaten 's apparent lack of interest in international affairs , the Hittites had gradually extended their influence into Phoenicia and Canaan to become a major power in international politics -- a power that both Seti I and his son Ramesses II would need to deal with during the 19th Dynasty . </P> <H2> 19th Dynasty ( edit ) </H2> Main article : Nineteenth Dynasty of Egypt <P> Ramesses II ( `` the Great '' ) sought to recover territories in the Levant that had been held by the 18th Dynasty . His campaigns of reconquest culminated in the Battle of Kadesh , where he led Egyptian armies against those of the Hittite king Muwatalli II . Ramesses was caught in history 's first recorded military ambush , although he was able to rally his troops and turn the tide of battle against the Hittites thanks to the arrival of the Ne'arin ( possibly mercenaries in the employ of Egypt ) . The outcome of the battle was undecided , with both sides claiming victory at their home front , and ultimately resulting in a peace treaty between the two nations . Egypt was able to obtain wealth and stability under Ramesses ' rule of over half a century . His immediate successors continued the military campaigns , although an increasingly troubled court -- which at one point put a usurper ( Amenmesse ) on the throne -- made it increasingly difficult for a pharaoh to effectively retain control of the territories . </P> <P> Ramesses II was also famed for the huge number of children he sired by his various wives and concubines ; the tomb he built for his sons , many of whom he outlived , in the Valley of the Kings has proven to be the largest funerary complex in Egypt . </P> <Ul> <Li> <P> Egyptian and Hittite Empires , around the time of the Battle of Kadesh . </P> </Li> </Ul> <H2> 20th Dynasty ( edit ) </H2> Main article : Twentieth Dynasty of Egypt <P> The last `` great '' pharaoh from the New Kingdom is widely considered to be Ramesses III , a 20th Dynasty pharaoh who reigned several decades after Ramesses II . </P> <P> In the eighth year of his reign the Sea Peoples invaded Egypt by land and sea .

cations into the cell . The positively charged ions entering the cell cause the depolarization characteristic of an action potential . Like skeletal muscle , depolarization causes the opening of voltage - gated calcium channels and release of Ca from the t - tubules . This influx of calcium causes calcium - induced calcium release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum , and free Ca causes muscle contraction . After a delay , potassium channels reopen , and the resulting flow of K out of the cell causes repolarization to the resting state . </P> <P> There are important physiological differences between nodal cells and ventricular cells ; the specific differences in ion channels and mechanisms of polarization give rise to unique properties of SA node cells , most important , the spontaneous depolarizations necessary for the SA node 's pacemaker activity . </P> <H3> Requirements for effective pumping ( edit ) </H3> <P> In order to maximize efficiency of contractions and cardiac output , the conduction system of the heart has : </P> <Ul> <Li> Substantial atrial to ventricular delay . This will allow the atria to completely empty their contents into the ventricles ; simultaneous contraction would cause inefficient filling and backflow . The atria are electrically isolated from the ventricles , connected only via the AV node which briefly delays the signal . </Li> <Li> Coordinated contraction of ventricular cells . The ventricles must maximize systolic pressure to force blood through the circulation , so all the ventricular cells must work together . <Ul> <Li> Ventricular contraction begins at the apex of the heart , progressing upwards to eject blood into the great arteries . Contraction that squeezes blood towards the exit is more efficient than a simple squeeze from all directions . Although the ventricular stimulus originates from the AV node in the wall separating the atria and ventricles , the Bundle of His conducts the signal to the apex . </Li> <Li> Depolarization propagates through cardiac muscle very rapidly . Cells of the ventricles contract nearly simultaneously . </Li> <Li> The action potentials of cardiac muscle are unusually sustained . This prevents premature relaxation , maintaining initial contraction until the entire myocardium has had time to depolarize and contract . </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> Absence of tetany . After contracting , the heart must relax to fill up again . Sustained contraction of the heart without relaxation would be fatal , and this is prevented by a temporary inactivation of certain ion channels . </Li> </Ul> <H2> ECG ( edit ) </H2> See also : Electrocardiogram The ECG complex . P =P wave , PR = PR interval , QRS = QRS complex , QT = QT interval , ST = ST segment , T = T wave Principle of ECG formation . Note that the red lines represent the depolarization wave , not bloodflow . <P> An electrocardiogram is a recording of the electrical activity of the heart . </P> <H3> SA node : P wave ( edit ) </H3> <P> Under normal conditions , electrical activity is spontaneously generated by the SA node , the cardiac pacemaker . This electrical impulse is propagated throughout the right atrium , and through Bachmann 's bundle to the left atrium , stimulating the myocardium of the atria to contract . The conduction of the electrical impulses throughout the atria is seen on the ECG as the P wave . </P> <P> As the electrical activity is spreading throughout the atria , it travels via specialized pathways , known as internodal tracts , from the SA node to the AV node . </P> <H3> AV node and bundles : PR interval ( edit ) </H3> <P> The AV node functions as a critical delay in the conduction system . Without this delay , the atria and ventricles would contract at the same time , and blood would n't flow effectively from the atria to the ventricles . The delay in the AV node forms much of the PR segment on the ECG , and part of atrial repolarization can be represented by PR segment . </P> <P> The distal portion of the AV node is known as the bundle of His . The bundle of His splits into two branches in the interventricular septum : the left bundle branch and the right bundle branch . The left bundle branch activates the left ventricle , while the right bundle branch activates the right ventricle . </P> <P> The left bundle branch is short , splitting into the left anterior fascicle and the left posterior fascicle . The left posterior fascicle is relatively short and broad , with dual blood supply , making it particularly resistant to ischemic damage . The left posterior fascicle transmits impulses to the papillary muscles , leading to mitral valve closure . As the left posterior fascicle is shorter and broader than the right , impulses reach the papillary muscles just prior to depolarization , and therefore contraction , of the left ventricle myocardium . This allows pre-tensioning of the chordae tendinae , increasing the resistance to flow through the mitral valve during left ventricular contraction . This mechanism works in the same manner as pre-tensioning of car seatbelts . </P> <H3> Purkinje fibers / ventricular myocardium : QRS complex ( edit ) </H3> <P> The two bundle branches taper out to produce numerous Purkinje fibers , which stimulate individual groups of myocardial cells to contract . </P> <P> The spread of electrical activity through the ventricular myocardium produces the QRS complex on the ECG . </P> <P> Atrial repolarization occurs and is masked during the QRS complex by ventricular depolarization on the ECG . </P> <H3> Ventricular repolarization ( edit ) </H3> <P> The last event of the cycle is the repolarization of the ventricles . It is the restoring of the resting state . In the ECG , repolarization includes the J point , ST - segment , and T - and U-waves . </P> <P> The transthoracically measured PQRS portion of an electrocardiogram is chiefly influenced by the sympathetic nervous system .

It was George 's band -- it was always George 's band and it was a dream he had for a long time . -- Tom Petty <P> George Harrison first mentioned the Traveling Wilburys publicly during a radio interview with Bob Coburn on the show Rockline in February 1988 . When asked how he planned to follow up the success of his Cloud Nine album , Harrison replied : `` What I 'd really like to do next is ... to do an album with me and some of my mates ... It 's this new group I got ( in mind ) : it 's called the Traveling Wilburys , I 'd like to do an album with them and then later we can all do our own albums again . '' According to Jeff Lynne , who co-produced Cloud Nine , Harrison introduced the idea of the two of them starting a band together around two months into the sessions for his album , which began in early January 1987 . When discussing who the other members might be , Harrison chose Bob Dylan and Lynne opted for Roy Orbison . The term `` Wilbury '' also originated during the Cloud Nine sessions . Referring to recording errors created by faulty equipment , Harrison jokingly remarked to Lynne , `` We 'll bury ' em in the mix . '' Thereafter , they used the term for any small error in performance . Harrison first suggested `` the Trembling Wilburys '' as the group 's name ; at Lynne 's suggestion , they amended it to `` Traveling Wilburys '' . </P> <P> During his Rockline interview , Harrison voiced his support for Dylan , at a time when the latter was experiencing an artistic and commercial low point in his career . Harrison and Lynne became friends with Tom Petty in October 1987 , when Petty and his band , the Heartbreakers , toured Europe as Dylan 's backing group . The friendship continued in Los Angeles later that year . There , Harrison struck up a musical rapport with Petty based on their shared love of 1950s rock ' n ' roll , and Lynne began collaborating with Petty on what became the latter 's debut solo album , Full Moon Fever , and writing songs with Orbison , Lynne 's longtime musical hero , for his comeback album , Mystery Girl . According to Petty , Harrison 's dream for the Wilburys was to handpick the participants and create `` the perfect little band '' , but the criteria for inclusion was governed most by `` who you could hang out with '' . The five musicians also bonded over a shared appreciation of the English comedy troupe Monty Python . Harrison , who had worked with the members of Monty Python on various productions by his company HandMade Films since the late 1970s , particularly appreciated Orbison 's gift for impersonation and his ability to recite entire sketches by the troupe . </P> <H3> 1988 -- 91 ( edit ) </H3> `` Handle with Care '' and band formation ( edit ) <P> The band came together in April 1988 , when Harrison was in Los Angeles to oversee the filming of his HandMade production Checking Out . At that time , Warner Bros. Records asked Harrison for a new song to serve as the B - side for the European release of his third single from Cloud Nine , `` This Is Love

Artemisia and her men fire flaming arrows and torches to ignite the tar , but an Athenian manages to kill one of the Persians , who falls into the tar carrying a torch , causing ships from both sides to explode . Themistocles is thrown into the sea by an explosion and nearly drowns before being rescued by Aeskylos , and stands by Scyllas 's side as he succumbs to his injuries . Believing Themistocles to be dead , Artemisia and her forces withdraw . After recovering from his injuries , Themistocles learns that only a few hundred of his warriors and six of his ships survived the disastrous attack executed by Artemisia . </P> <P> Daxos , an Arcadian general , tells Themistocles that Leonidas and his 300 men have been killed after Ephialtes betrays the Greeks to Xerxes . Themistocles returns to Athens and confronts Ephialtes . The deformed Spartan traitor reveals that Xerxes plans to attack and burn Athens to the ground . Ephialites is regretful of his actions , and is welcoming death . Themistocles spares him instead , so he can warn Xerxes that the Greek forces are gathering at Salamis . He then visits Gorgo in Sparta while she is mourning Leonidas 's death to ask for her help , but she is too overcome with grief . Before leaving , Themistocles returns Leonidas 's sword , which had been delivered to him by Ephialtes under Xerxes 's orders , and urges Gorgo to avenge Leonidas . </P> <P> In Athens , Xerxes 's army is laying waste when Ephialtes arrives to deliver Themistocles ' message . Upon learning he is alive , Artemisia leaves to ready her entire navy for battle . Xerxes suggests a more cautious plan but she still leaves for battle , ignoring Xerxes 's advice . The remaining Greek ships charge into the Persians ships , and the two armies battle , beginning the decisive Battle of Salamis . Themistocles and Artemisia fight , which ends in a stalemate with both receiving severe injuries . </P> <P> At this moment Gorgo , who had been narrating the tale to the Spartans , arrives at the battle along with ships from numerous Greek city states including Delphi , Thebes , Olympia , Arcadia , and Sparta , all of them uniting against the surrounded Persians . Daxos leads the Arcadian army while Themistocles urges Artemisia to surrender . Xerxes , watching the battle from a cliff , turns his back on her , acknowledging his naval defeat and continues the march of his army . Artemisia tries to kill Themistocles one last time but is killed as he stabs her through the stomach . While Dilios leads the Greek assault , Themistocles and Gorgo take a moment to silently acknowledge one another 's alliance as the remaining Persians attempt a counter-attack .

Fatty Change is also known as fatty degeneration , fatty metamorphosis , or fatty steatosis . </P> <H3> Lethal ( edit ) </H3> Necrosis ( edit ) <P> Necrosis is characterised by cytoplasmic swelling , irreversible damage to the plasma membrane , and organelle breakdown leading to cell death . The stages of cellular necrosis include pyknosis ; clumping of chromosomes and shrinking of the nucleus of the cell , karyorrhexis ; fragmentation of the nucleus and break up of the chromatin into unstructured granules , and karyolysis ; dissolution of the cell nucleus . Cytosolic components that leak through the damaged plasma membrane into the extracellular space can incur an inflammatory response . </P> <P> There are six types of necrosis : </P> <Ul> <Li> Coagulative necrosis </Li> <Li> Liquefactive necrosis </Li> <Li> Caseous necrosis </Li> <Li> Fat necrosis </Li> <Li> Fibroid necrosis </Li> <Li> Gangrenous necrosis </Li> </Ul> Apoptosis ( edit ) <P> Apoptosis is the programmed cell death of superfluous or potentially harmful cells in the body . It is an energy dependent process mediated by proteolytic enzymes called caspases , which trigger cell death through the cleaving of specific proteins in the cytoplasm and nucleus . The dying cells shrink and condense into apoptotic bodies . The cell surface is altered so as to display properties which lead to rapid phagocytosis by macrophages or neighbouring cells . Unlike necrotic cell death , neighbouring cells are not damaged by apoptosis as cytosolic products are safely isolated by membranes prior to undergoing phagocytosis . In the average adult between 50 and 70 billion cells die each day due to apoptosis . Inhibition of apoptosis can result in a number of cancers , autoimmune diseases , inflammatory diseases , and viral infections . Hyperactive apoptosis can lead to neurodegenerative diseases , hematologic diseases , and tissue damage . Keshav Rathour </P> <H2> Repair ( edit ) </H2> <P> When a cell is damaged the body will try to repair or replace the cell to continue normal functions . If a cell dies the body will remove it and replace it with another functioning cell , or fill the gap with connective tissue to provide structural support for the remaining cells . The motto of the repair process is to fill a gap caused by the damaged cells to regain structural continuity . Normal cells try to regenerate the damaged cells but this can not always happen . Asexual reproduction is what repairs cells </P> <H3> Regeneration ( edit ) </H3> <P> Regeneration of parenchyma cells , or the functional cells , of an organism . The body can make more cells to replace the damaged cells keeping the organ or tissue intact and fully functional . </P> <H3> Replacement ( edit ) </H3> <P> When a cell can not be regenerated the body will replace it with stromal connective tissue to maintain tissue / organ function . Stromal cells are the cells that support the parenchymal cells in any organ . Fibroblasts , immune cells , pericytes , and inflammatory cells are the most common types of stromal cells . </P> <H2> Biochemical changes in cellular injury ( edit ) </H2> <P> ATP ( adenosine triphosphate ) depletion is a common biological alteration that occurs with cellular injury . This change can happen despite the inciting agent of the cell damage . A reduction in intracellular ATP can have a number of functional and morphologic consequences during cell injury . These effects include : </P> <Ul> <Li> Failure of the ATP dependent pumps ( Na + / K + pump and Ca 2 + pump ) , resulting in a net influx of Na + and Ca 2 + ions and osmotic swelling . </Li> <Li> ATP - depleted cells begin to undertake anaerobic metabolism to derive energy from glycogen which is known as ' glycogenolysis ' . </Li> <Li> A consequent decrease in the intracellular pH of the cell arises , which mediates harmful enzymatic processes . </Li> <Li> Early clumping of nuclear chromatin then occurs , known as ' pyknosis ' , and leads to eventual cell death . </Li> </Ul> <H2> DNA damage and repair ( edit ) </H2> <H3> DNA damage ( edit ) </H3> <P> DNA damage ( or RNA damage in the case of some virus genomes ) appears to be a fundamental problem for life . As noted by Haynes , the subunits of DNA are not endowed with any peculiar kind of quantum mechanical stability , and thus DNA is vulnerable to all the `` chemical horrors '' that might befall any such molecule in a warm aqueous medium . These chemical horrors are DNA damages that include various types of modification of the DNA bases , single - and double - strand breaks , and inter-strand cross-links ( see DNA damage ( naturally occurring ) . DNA damages are distinct from mutations although both are errors in the DNA . Whereas DNA damages are abnormal chemical and structural alterations , mutations ordinarily involve the normal four bases in new arrangements . Mutations can be replicated , and thus inherited when the DNA replicates . In contrast , DNA damages are altered structures that can not , themselves , be replicated . </P> <P> Several different repair processes can remove DNA damages ( see chart in DNA repair ) . However , those DNA damages that remain un-repaired can have detrimental consequences . DNA damages may block replication or gene transcription . These blockages can lead to cell death . In multicellular organisms , cell death in response to DNA damage may occur by a programmed process , apoptosis . Alternatively , when a DNA polymerase replicates a template strand containing a damaged site , it may inaccurately bypass the damage and , as a consequence , introduce an incorrect base leading to a mutation . Experimentally , mutation rates increase substantially in cells defective in DNA mismatch repair or in

for their own species , but triploid , with three sets of chromosomes , by comparison to a probable evolutionary ancestor , einkorn wheat . </P> <P> Tetraploidy ( four sets of chromosomes , 2n = 4x ) is common in plants , and also occurs in amphibians , reptiles , and insects . For example , species of Xenopus ( African toads ) form a ploidy series , featuring diploid ( X. tropicalis , 2n = 20 ) , tetraploid ( for example X. laevis , 4n = 36 ) , octaploid ( for example X. wittei , 8n = 72 ) and dodecaploid ( for example X. ruwenzoriensis , 12n = 108 ) species . </P> <P> Over evolutionary time scales in which chromosomal polymorphisms accumulate , these changes become less apparent by karyotype - for example , humans are generally regarded as diploid , but the 2R hypothesis has confirmed two rounds of whole genome duplication in early vertebrate ancestors . </P> <P> Ploidy can also differ with life cycle . In some insects it differs by caste . In humans , only the gametes are haploid , but in the Australian bulldog ant , Myrmecia pilosula , a haplodiploid species , haploid individuals of this species have a single chromosome , and diploid individuals have two chromosomes . In Entamoeba , the ploidy level varies from 4n to 40n in a single population . Alternation of generations occurs in many plants . </P> <P> Some studies suggest that selection is more likely to favor diploidy in host species and haploidy in parasite species . </P> <H2> Haploid and monoploid ( edit ) </H2> 1. Haploid organism are on the left and Diploid organism on the right . 2. This is an haploid egg carrying the dominant purple gene . 3. This is a haploid sperm carrying the recessive blue gene . 4. This is a diploid sperm carrying the recessive blue gene . 5. This is an diploid egg carrying the dominant purple gene . 6. This is the short lived diploid state of haploid organisms . 7. This is the first stage of a zygote which has just been fertilized by a sperm . 8. The spores released by the diploid structure either express the mothers dominate gene or the fathers recessive gene . 9 . The baby 's cells express the dominant or recessive . <P> The nucleus of a eukaryotic cell is haploid if it has a single set of chromosomes , each one not being part of a pair . By extension a cell may be called haploid if its nucleus is haploid , and an organism may be called haploid if its body cells ( somatic cells ) are haploid . The number of chromosomes in a single set is called the haploid number , given the symbol n . If the number of chromosomes in the set is 1 ( n = 1 ) then the nucleus ( or cell , organism ) may be called monoploid . </P> <P> Gametes ( sperm and ova ) are haploid cells . The haploid gametes produced by most organisms combine to form a zygote with n pairs of chromosomes , i.e. 2n chromosomes in total . The chromosomes in each pair , one of which comes from the sperm and one from the egg , are said to be homologous . Cells and organisms with pairs of homologous chromosomes are called diploid . For example , most animals are diploid and produce haploid gametes . During meiosis , sex cell precursors have their number of chromosomes halved by randomly `` choosing '' one member of each pair of chromosomes , resulting in haploid gametes . Because homologous chromosomes usually differ genetically , gametes usually differ genetically from one another . </P> <P> All plants and many fungi and algae switch between a haploid and a diploid state , with one of the stages emphasized over the other . This is called alternation of generations . Most fungi and algae are haploid during the principal stage of their lifecycle , as are plants like mosses . Most animals are diploid , but male bees , wasps , and ants are haploid organisms because they develop from unfertilized , haploid eggs , while females ( workers and queens ) are diploid , making their system haplodiploid . </P> <P> In some cases there is evidence that the n chromosomes in a haploid set have resulted from duplications of an originally smaller set of chromosomes . This `` base '' number -- the number of apparently originally unique chromosomes in a haploid set -- is called the monoploid number , also known as basic or cardinal number , or fundamental number . As an example , the chromosomes of common wheat are believed to be derived from three different ancestral species , each of which had 7 chromosomes in its haploid gametes . The monoploid number is thus 7 and the haploid number is 3 × 7 = 21 . In general n is a multiple of x . The somatic cells in a wheat plant have six sets of 7 chromosomes : three sets from the egg and three sets from the sperm which fused to form the plant , giving a total of 42 chromosomes . As a formula , for wheat 2n = 6x = 42 , so that the haploid number n is 21 and the monoploid number x is 7 . The gametes of common wheat are considered to be haploid , since they contain half the genetic information of somatic cells , but they are not monoploid , as they still contain three complete sets of chromosomes ( n = 3x ) . </P> <P> In the case of wheat , the origin of its haploid number of 21 chromosomes from three sets of 7 chromosomes can be demonstrated . In many other organisms , although the number of chromosomes may have originated in this way , this is no longer clear , and the monoploid number is regarded as the same as

Before the play begins , she has recently lost her brother who was her guardian after her father died . This loss has made her grief - stricken and she has refused to see anyone who does not reside in her household , and declared that she will be in mourning for seven years ( The element itself , till seven years ' heat , Shall not behold her face at ample view ) . </P> Malvolio and Olivia A Priest , Olivia , and Sebastian <P> Because of her wealth and beauty Olivia attracts various men who wish to marry her . The play begins with the Duke of Illyria , Orsino , pining away over his love for Olivia while she refuses to accept him as a suitor . Sir Andrew has been invited to her household by Sir Toby , and Andrew hopes to use his stay to make Olivia his bride . Malvolio uses his position as steward to gain her affections . </P> <P> Despite all of the rumpus going on at her home , Olivia refuses all visitors until Orsino sends his new page , the protagonist of the play , Viola , to call on her . </P> <P> Viola has been recently shipwrecked and she has taken on the disguise of a boy so that she may work for Orsino with no one knowing her true identity . During the shipwreck , Viola lost her brother , Sebastian , and she believes that he has died . </P> <P> Olivia quickly descends in love with the witty Cesario ( Viola 's name when she is in disguise ) because Cesario is unafraid of saying what he / she is thinking , even though Cesario never says anything nice to Olivia ( except , of course , when speaking Orsino 's messages ) . Cesario also compliments Olivia on her beauty , something that helps heal Olivia 's heart from the losses she has recently incurred . </P> <P> Olivia attempts to woo the young Cesario / Viola and repeatedly asks / lures him to come back to her estate by using various tricks and problems .

On 11 September 1297 , the forces of Andrew Moray and William Wallace defeated the combined English forces of John de Warenne , 6th Earl of Surrey , and Hugh de Cressingham near Stirling , on the River Forth . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Background </Li> <Li> 2 The main battle </Li> <Li> 3 Aftermath </Li> <Li> 4 The battle in fiction </Li> <Li> 5 Notes </Li> <Li> 6 References </Li> <Li> 7 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Background ( edit ) </H2> <P> The Earl of Surrey had won a victory over the aristocracy of Scotland at the Battle of Dunbar . However , by August 1297 Moray and Wallace controlled almost all of Scotland north of the Forth , except for Dundee . Surrey marched north with an army from Berwick to relieve Dundee . The town of Stirling was the key entry point to the north of Scotland . </P> <H2> The main battle ( edit ) </H2> <P> The earl arrived at the narrow , wooden bridge over the River Forth near Stirling Castle and determined that he would be at a tactical disadvantage if he attempted to take his main force across there . So he delayed crossing for several days to allow for negotiations , and to reconnoiter the area . On 10 September Warenne gave orders to cross the river the next day . At dawn the English and Welsh infantry started to cross only to be recalled due to the fact that Warenne had overslept . </P> <P> The Scots arrived first and encamped on Abbey Craig which dominated the soft , flat ground north of the river . The English force of English , Welsh and Scots knights , bowmen and foot soldiers camped to the south of the river . Sir Richard Lundie , a Scots knight who joined the English after the Capitulation of Irvine , offered to outflank the enemy by leading a cavalry force over a ford two miles upstream , where sixty horsemen could cross at the same time . Hugh Cressingham , King Edward 's treasurer in Scotland , persuaded the Earl to reject this advice and order a direct attack across the bridge . </P> <P> The small bridge was only broad enough to allow two horsemen to cross abreast , but offered the safest river crossing as the Forth widened to the east and the marshland of Flanders Moss lay to the west . The Scots waited as the English knights and infantry made their slow progress across the bridge on the morning of 11 September . It would have taken several hours for the entire English army to cross . </P> <P> Wallace and Moray waited , according to the Chronicle of Hemingburgh , until `` as many of the enemy had come over as they believed they could overcome '' . When a substantial number of the troops had crossed ( possibly about 2,000 ) the attack was ordered . The Scots spearmen came down from the high ground in rapid advance and fended off a charge by the English heavy cavalry before counterattacking the English infantry . They gained control of the east side of the bridge , and cut off the chance of English reinforcements to cross .

Exodus 31 : 18 refers to the tablets as the `` Tablets of ( the ) Testimony '' . </P> <P> According to the Bible , there were two sets . The first , inscribed by God , ( Exodus 31 : 18 ) were smashed by Moses when he was enraged by the sight of the Children of Israel worshipping a golden calf ( Exodus 32 : 19 ) and the second were later cut by Moses and rewritten by God . ( Exodus 34 : 1 ) </P> <P> According to traditional teachings of Judaism in the Talmud , they were made of blue sapphire stone as a symbolic reminder of the sky , the heavens , and ultimately of God 's throne . Many Torah scholars , however , have opined that the Biblical `` sapir '' was , in fact , the lapis lazuli ( see Exodus 24 : 10 , lapis lazuli is a possible alternate rendering of `` sapphire '' the stone pavement under God 's feet when the intention to craft the tablets of the covenant is disclosed Exodus 24 : 12 ) . </P> <P> According to the bible , both the first shattered set and the second unbroken set were stored in the Ark of the Covenant ( the Aron Habrit in Hebrew ) . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Appearance of the tablets </Li> <Li> 2 Content </Li> <Li> 3 Christian replicas </Li> <Li> 4 In the Qur'an </Li> <Li> 5 Gallery </Li> <Li> 6 See also </Li> <Li> 7 References </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Appearance of the tablets ( edit ) </H2> A popular image of the Tablets as rounded - off rectangles bears little relationship with religious traditions about their appearance . In this case , the Ten Commandments are represented by the first ten letters of the Hebrew alphabet , which in Hebrew usage may be used interchangeably with the numbers 1 - 10 . Rectangular tablets passed down by the Hand of God in the 10th century Byzantine Leo Bible . <P> In recent centuries the tablets have been popularly described and depicted as round - topped rectangles but this has little basis in religious tradition . According to Rabbinic tradition , they were rectangles , with sharp corners , and indeed they are so depicted in the 3rd century paintings at the Dura - Europos Synagogue and in Christian art throughout the 1st millennium , drawing on Jewish traditions of iconography . </P> <P> The rounded tablets appear in the Middle Ages , following in size and shape contemporary hinged writing tablets for taking notes ( with a stylus on a layer of wax on the insides ) . For Michelangelo and Andrea Mantegna they still have sharp corners ( see gallery ) , and are about the size found in Rabbinic tradition . Later artists such as Rembrandt tended to combine the rounded shape with the larger size . While , as mentioned above , Rabbinic tradition teaches that the tablets were squared , according to some authorities , the Rabbis themselves approved of rounded depictions of the tablets in replicas so that the replicas would not exactly match the historical tablets . </P> <P> According to the Talmud , the length and width of each of the Tablets was six Tefachim , and each was three Tefachim thick - respectively roughly 20 and ten inches , though they tend to be shown larger in art . Also according to tradition , the words were not engraved on the surface , but rather were bored fully through the stone . </P> <H2> Content ( edit ) </H2> <P> In Jewish religious tradition , the arrangement of the commandments on the two tablets is interpreted in different ways . Rabbi Hanina ben Gamaliel said that each tablet contained five commandments , `` but the Sages say ten on one tablet and ten on the other '' . Because the commandments establish a covenant , it is likely that they were duplicated on both tablets . This can be compared to diplomatic treaties of Ancient Egypt , in which a copy was made for each party . But the tablets may have contained not only the Ten Commandments but also additional precepts and words as can be inferred from the verses Exodus 31 : 18 , Exodus 34 : 1 , Exodus 34 : 27 - 28 . </P> <H2> Christian replicas ( edit ) </H2> <P> Replicas of the tablets , known as tabots or sellats , are a vital part of the practice of

corner of East Broadway and Forsyth Street in the Little Fuzhou neighborhood within Manhattan 's Chinatown . <P> Chinatown buses typically run nonstop express service between the departure and destination points . This typically results in shorter travel times . For instance , the trip from State College , Pennsylvania , to New York City takes about four hours on the Chinatown bus , compared to more than seven hours on Greyhound . However , although the Chinatown buses are often cheaper than alternative modes of transport like Amtrak and airplanes , they are also slower ; for example , Amtrak and airplanes take about 2.75 to 3.5 hours to travel from New York City to Washington , D.C. , while Chinatown buses take 4 to 5 hours . These intercity buses run at least 2,500 weekly trips . </P> <P> Many competitors offer discount prices that undercut the major bus lines . Typical fares between East Coast cities range from $10 to $20 , compared to major curbside bus lines ( which typically cost between $1 and $25 ) , terminal - operated bus lines ( which cost between $14 and $35 ) , and Amtrak ( which costs about $100 . ) The industry has become highly competitive with companies offering hourly service between major cities . The Appalachian extensions of these lines tend to offer less of a price advantage ; for example , in August 2006 , one - way fares from New York to Pittsburgh on the Chinese - owned All State were $35 compared with $45 advance through Greyhound Lines , while tickets from State College , Pennsylvania , to New York were $35 , compared to $46 for Greyhound . Chinatown buses also charge flat fees , while other intercity buses may vary pricing based on demand . Low prices led to high demand for many Chinatown bus routes , and although a single round trip can incur hundreds of dollars in expenses , a fully booked bus can net at least $340 in profits per round trip after these expenses are paid . </P> <P> Often , ticket booths are walk - up windows on the street , or are located inside restaurants and bakeries throughout a given Chinatown community , although it is not uncommon for tickets to be sold on the street directly . Some lines even simply collect cash payment after passengers have boarded the bus . However , tickets are often sold online , either by the bus companies themselves or by portals and print - outs of confirmation emails are used as tickets . Except in Boston , the lines rarely use stations of their own . Passengers are usually directed to wait along a given curbside for the arrival of the bus , although many companies offer waiting areas at or near the pickup points . Several bus stops are also near major hotels and in the parking areas of major Chinese supermarkets . In New York , several bus lines pick up passengers on a stretch of Forsyth Street at the foot of the Manhattan Bridge in the Little Fuzhou neighborhood within Manhattan 's Chinatown . Since 1998 , when the New York City Department of Transportation marked the strip a bus layover area , the sidewalk between Division Street and East Broadway has served as a de facto terminal for the Chinatown buses . </P> <P> Most operators of Chinatown bus lines have traditionally been Fujianese . Often , buses do not follow their scheduled timetables , and many buses are often unreliable , sometimes skipping scheduled stops altogether . In addition , since there are no advertisements and often no websites for these bus lines , knowledge of such bus lines is often spread verbally . </P> <H2> Destinations and routes ( edit ) </H2> Schematic of the main Eastern US Chinatown Bus Lines as of 2010 , centralized in New York City as the hub <P> In addition to in Boston and in the various Chinatowns in the New York metropolitan area within New York City and Long Island , several bus line companies also link to the Chinatowns of Edison , New Jersey ; Cherry Hill Mall ; Philadelphia ; Washington , D.C. ; Baltimore ; Atlanta ; and to the casinos of Atlantic City . Buses also go to Ohio , Michigan , Rhode Island , Virginia , and Florida . However , Chinatown buses also stop at smaller , predominately non-Chinese areas such as in North Carolina and South Carolina . On the West Coast , buses link the Chinatowns of the San Francisco Bay Area ; Los Angeles Chinatown and the San Gabriel Valley ; and Las Vegas ' Chinatown and casinos . In the I - 5 corridor in California , similar services are found in the Hispanic community and provide transportation to / from Baja California in Mexico . Often , the Chinatown bus lines enable Chinese immigrants , mainly restaurant workers , to be transported cheaply along the coasts . In total , the buses travel within 24 U.S. states and Canada . </P> <P> Many Chinatown buses have their base of operation in New York City , and it has been proposed to build a Chinatown bus hub there . New York - to - Boston Chinatown buses generally use the Massachusetts Turnpike from Boston to I - 84 , and then follow I - 84 to I - 91 to I - 95 . As I - 95 approaches New York , several routings are possible depending on the traffic situation . Some drivers use the Throgs Neck Bridge to reach the Long Island Expressway , then to the Brooklyn - Queens Expressway , and then Manhattan Bridge to Canal Street . Other drivers use the Whitestone Bridge . Most drivers use the Triborough Bridge when traffic is not congested , and reach the Brooklyn - Queens Expressway via Astoria Boulevard . </P> <P> In Philadelphia , the Independence Transportation Center was built in part due on a 2007 survey by the Philadelphia Chinatown Development Corporation ,

associations the legal right to buy , at a large discount , the council house they are living in . There is also a Right to Acquire for assured tenants of housing association homes built with public subsidy after 1997 , at a smaller discount . About 1,500,000 homes in the UK have been sold in this manner since the introduction of the scheme in 1980 . </P> <P> Supporters claim that the programme has given millions of households a tangible asset , secured their families ' finances and -- by releasing cash to repay local authority debt -- helped improve the public finances . Critics claim that the policy compounded a housing shortage for people of low income , initiated a national house price bubble , and led ultimately to what is commonly recognised as the displacement and social cleansing of traditional communities . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Thatcher policies </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Right to Buy rules after 2005 </Li> <Li> 3 Recent changes </Li> <Li> 4 Criticisms </Li> <Li> 5 See also </Li> <Li> 6 References </Li> <Li> 7 Further reading </Li> <Li> 8 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> Council - type housing stock in Weaverham , now mostly owner - occupied <P> Individual local authorities have always had the ability to sell council houses to their tenants , but until the early 1970s such sales were extremely rare . </P> <P> The Labour Party initially proposed the idea of the right of tenants to own the house they live in , in their manifesto for the 1959 general election which they subsequently lost . Later , the Conservative - controlled Greater London Council ( GLC ) of the late 1960s was persuaded by Horace Cutler , its Chairman of Housing , to create a general sales scheme . Cutler disagreed with the concept of local authorities as providers of housing , and supported a free - market approach . GLC housing sales were not allowed during the Labour administration of the mid-1970s , but picked up again once Cutler became Leader in 1977 . They proved extremely popular . Cutler was close to Margaret Thatcher ( MP for Finchley ) who made the right to buy council housing a Conservative Party policy nationally . The policy was largely in place for the 1974 Conservative manifesto , but did not prove an asset in the two general elections that year because of high interest and mortgage repayment rates , as well as the growth of negative equity as house prices fell . </P> <P> In the meantime , council house sales to tenants began to increase . Some 7,000 were sold to their tenants during 1970 ; this soared to more than 45,000 in 1972 . </P> <H3> Thatcher policies ( edit ) </H3> <P> After Margaret Thatcher became Prime Minister in May 1979 , the legislation to implement the Right to Buy was passed in the Housing Act 1980 . Michael Heseltine , in his role as Secretary of State for the Environment , was in charge of implementing the legislation . Some 6,000,000 people were affected ; about one in three actually purchased their housing unit . Heseltine noted that `` no single piece of legislation has enabled the transfer of so much capital wealth from the state to the people '' . He said the right to buy had two main objectives : to give people what they wanted , and to reverse the trend of ever - increasing dominance of the state over the life of the individual . </P> <P> He said : `` There is in this country a deeply ingrained desire for home ownership . The Government believe that this spirit should be fostered . It reflects the wishes of the people , ensures the wide spread of wealth through society , encourages a personal desire to improve and modernise one 's own home , enables parents to accrue wealth for their children and stimulates the attitudes of independence and self - reliance that are the bedrock of a free society . '' </P> <P> The sale price of a council house was based on its market valuation but also included a discount of between 33 % and 50 % , to reflect the rents paid by tenants and also to encourage take - up . According to a government survey in 1988 , the average discount that had been offered was 44 % . Mortgages involved no down payments . The legislation gave council tenants the right to buy their council house at a discounted value , depending on how long they had been living in the house , with the proviso that if they sold their house before a minimum period had expired they would have to pay back a proportion of the discount . The sales were an attractive deal for tenants ; hundreds of thousands of homes were sold . The policy became one of the major points of Thatcherism . </P> <P> The policy proved immediately popular . Some local Labour - controlled councils were opposed , but the legislation prevented them from blocking purchases , and gave them half the proceeds . Sales were much higher in the south and east of England than in inner London and northern England . </P> <P> Half the proceeds of the sales were paid to the local authorities , but the government restricted authorities ' use of most of the money to reducing their debt until it was cleared , rather than spending it on building more homes . The effect was to reduce the council housing stock , especially in areas where property prices were high , such as London and the south - east of England . </P> <P> 200,000 council houses were sold to their tenants in 1982 . By 1987 , more than 1,000,000 council houses in the UK had been sold to their tenants , although the number of council houses purchased by tenants declined during

Card security code - wikipedia <H1> Card security code </H1> Jump to : navigation , search The card security code is located on the back of MasterCard , Visa , Discover , Diners Club , and JCB credit or debit cards and is typically a separate group of three digits to the right of the signature strip . On American Express cards , the card security code is a printed , not embossed , group of four digits on the front towards the right . <P> A card security code ( CSC ; also called card verification data ( CVD ) , card verification number , card verification value ( CVV ) , card verification value code , card verification code ( CVC ) , verification code ( V - code or V code ) , or signature panel code ( SPC ) ) is a security feature for `` card not present '' payment card transactions instituted to reduce the incidence of credit card fraud . </P> <P> The CSC is in addition to the bank card number which is embossed or printed on the card . The CSC is used as a security feature , in situations where a PIN can not be used . The PIN is not printed or embedded on the card but is manually entered by the cardholder during point - of - sale ( card present ) transactions . Contactless card and chip cards may electronically generate their own code , such as iCVV or a dynamic CVV . </P> <P> CSC was originally developed in the UK as an 11 character alphanumeric code by Equifax employee Michael Stone in 1995 . After testing with the Littlewoods Home Shopping group and NatWest bank , the concept was adopted by APACS ( the UK Association of Payment Clearing Services ) and streamlined to the three - digit code known today . MasterCard started issuing CVC2 numbers in 1997 and Visa in the United States issued them by 2001 .

The purpose of the code is to verify that a payment card is actually in the hand of the merchant . This code is automatically retrieved when the magnetic stripe of a card is swiped on a point - of - sale ( card present ) device and is verified by the issuer . A limitation is that if the entire card has been duplicated and the magnetic stripe copied , then the code is still valid . ( See credit card fraud § skimming . ) </Li> <Li> The second code , and the most cited , is CVV2 or CVC2 . This code is often sought by merchants for card not present transactions occurring by mail , fax , telephone or Internet . In some countries in Western Europe , card issuers require a merchant to obtain the code when the cardholder is not present in person . </Li> <Li> Contactless cards and chip cards may supply their own electronically generated codes , such as iCVV or a dynamic CVV . </Li> </Ul> <H2> Location of code ( edit ) </H2> <P> The card security code is typically the last three or four digits printed , not embossed like the card number , on the signature strip on the back of the card . On American Express cards , the card security code is the four digits printed ( not embossed ) on the front towards the right . The card security code is not encoded on the magnetic stripe but is printed flat . </P> <Ul> <Li> American Express cards have a four - digit code printed on the front side of the card above the number . </Li> <Li> Diners Club , Discover , JCB , MasterCard , and Visa credit and debit cards have a three - digit card security code .

This has been done to prevent overwriting of the numbers by

The song was first recorded by the Pittsburgh vocal group The Tempos . This first version peaked at number 23 in the summer of 1959 . The most popular version of `` See You In September '' was the version by The Happenings in 1966 , when it reached number three . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Background </Li> <Li> 2 The Happenings version </Li> <Li> 3 Other versions </Li> <Li> 4 Use in popular culture </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> <Li> 6 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Background ( edit ) </H2> <P> Sid Wayne would recall the song 's inception : `` I was in the habit of going from my home on Long Island every day to Brill Building , on Tin Pan Alley ( to ) meet with different songwriters there . We 'd eat at Jack Dempsey 's or The Turf Restaurant and then we 'd go up to one of the publishers ' offices and work in the piano room . We 'd sit around saying to each other , ' What do you want to write today ? A hit or a standard ? ' '' At 11 a.m. on a Friday in June 1959 Wayne thus met up with Sherman Edwards : `` he said , ' What do you want to write ? ' ' I 'd like to write a song called See You in September , '' ' I said . We talked it back and forth and I think I may have contributed part of the opening music , but with Sherman it did n't matter , because he could throw me back half the lyric -- that 's how he worked . I think probably by two in the afternoon we got the song finished . It needed to be written ; it was like boiling inside of us . '' </P> <P> By 4 : 30 p.m. that day , Wayne and Edwards had reworked their composition , simplifying it so as to appeal to the teen demographic , and proceeded to make the rounds of publishers to pitch the song which , after one rejection , met with an enthusiastic reception from Jack Gold , owner of the local Paris label , who by 8 p.m. had telephoned the Tempos in their hometown of Pittsburgh . The group had been flown into New York City by the next day , Saturday . Sid Wayne : `` By Monday the record was cut ( with the Billy Mure orchestra ) , test pressings were Thursday , and by Friday the song was played on WNEW in New York . The thing took off like wildfire ... Five hundred dollars to split between the two of us ( ie . Wayne & Edwards ) ... was a damn good week 's pay in 1961 . '' </P> <P> In fact , the Tempos ' `` See You in September '' failed to become a hit in the New York City area and despite breaking in San Francisco in June 1959 , the single did not reach the national charts until that July . Despite a subsequent swift ascent of the Billboard Hot 100 , the single 's momentum fell sharply at the end of August 1959 with a resultant # 23 peak . Although overshadowed by the Happenings ' # 3 remake , the Tempos ' version of `` See You in September '' did gain considerable currency in 1973 by virtue of its inclusion on the American Graffiti soundtrack . </P> <Ul> <Li> Mike Lazo ( top tenor ) , Jim Drake , Tom Monito , Gene Schachter </Li> </Ul> <H2> The Happenings version ( edit ) </H2> <Table> <Tr> <Th colspan="2"> `` See You in September '' </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td colspan="2"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th colspan="2"> Single by The Happenings </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th colspan="2"> from the album The Happenings </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> B - side </Th> <Td> `` He Thinks He 's a Hero '' </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Released </Th> <Td> 1966 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Format </Th> <Td> 7 '' single </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Genre </Th> <Td> Pop </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Length </Th> <Td> 2 : 31 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Label </Th> <Td> B.T.

The `` formula '' in the name refers to a set of rules to which all participants and cars must conform . The F1 world championship season consists of a series of races , known as Grands Prix , held usually on purpose - built circuits , and in a few cases on closed city streets . The most famous Grand Prix is the Monaco Grand Prix in Monte Carlo . Each winner is presented with a trophy and the results of each race are combined to determine two annual Championships , one for drivers and one for constructors . The World Championship for Drivers is held since 1950 , after the Formula One standard was agreed upon in 1946 . The Constructors ' Championship was added for the 1958 season and has been awarded ever since . </P> <P> Michael Schumacher holds the record for the most Grand Prix victories , having won 91 times . Lewis Hamilton is second with 62 wins and Alain Prost is third with 51 wins . Michael Schumacher holds the distinction of having the longest time between his first win and his last . He won his first Grand Prix in 1992 at the Belgian Grand Prix , and his last in 2006 at the Chinese Grand Prix , a span of 14 years , 1 month and 1 day . Riccardo Patrese holds the record for the longest period of time between two race wins -- more than six - and - a-half years between the 1983 South African Grand Prix and the 1990 San Marino Grand Prix . Mario Andretti had to wait the longest time between his maiden victory at the 1971 South African Grand Prix and his second win -- coming five years , seven months and 18 days later at the 1976 Japanese Grand Prix . Sebastian Vettel holds the record for the most consecutive wins , having won nine Grands Prix in a row from the 2013 Belgian Grand Prix to the 2013 Brazilian Grand Prix . Max Verstappen is the youngest winner of a Grand Prix ; he was 18 years and 227 days old when he won the 2016 Spanish Grand Prix . Luigi Fagioli is the oldest winner of a Formula One Grand Prix ; he was 53 years and 22 days old when he won the 1951 French Grand Prix . </P> <P> As of the 2017 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix , out of the 759 drivers who started a Grand Prix , there have been 107 different Formula One Grand Prix winners . The first Grand Prix winner was Giuseppe Farina at the 1950 British Grand Prix , and the most recent driver to score their first Grand Prix win was Valtteri Bottas . </P> <P> This list includes the winners of the Indianapolis 500 race between 1950 and 1960 , as they formed part of the World Championships , even though they were not run by Formula One regulations , nor are they referred to as Grands Prix . </P> Michael Schumacher won a record 91 Grands Prix during his career . <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 By driver </Li> <Li> 2 By nationality </Li> <Li> 3 See also </Li> <Li> 4 References </Li> <Li> 5 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> By driver ( edit ) </H2> <P> All figures correct as of the 2017 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix </P> <Table> Key <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> Driver competed in the 2017 season </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Bold </Td> <Td> Formula One World Champion </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Table> Formula One Grand Prix Winners <Tr> <Th> Rank </Th> <Th> Country </Th> <Th> Driver </Th> <Th> Wins </Th> <Th> Seasons active </Th> <Th> First win </Th> <Th> Last win </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> Germany </Td> <Th> Schumacher , Michael Michael Schumacher </Th> <Td> 91 </Td> <Td> 1991 -- 2006 2010 -- 2012 </Td> <Td> 1992 Belgian Grand Prix </Td> <Td> 2006 Chinese Grand Prix </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> United Kingdom </Td> <Th> Hamilton , Lewis Lewis Hamilton </Th> <Td> 62 </Td>

Membership of Rajya Sabha is limited by the Constitution to a maximum of 250 members , and current laws have provision for 245 members . Most of the members of the House are indirectly elected by state and territorial legislatures using single transferable votes , while the President can appoint 12 members for their contributions to art , literature , science , and social services . Members sit for staggered six - year terms , with one third of the members retiring every two years . </P> <P> The Rajya Sabha meets in continuous sessions , and unlike the Lok Sabha , the lower house of Parliament , is not subject to dissolution . However , the Rajya Sabha , like the Lok Sabha can be prorogued by the President . The Rajya Sabha has equal footing in all areas of legislation with Lok Sabha , except in the area of supply , where the Lok Sabha has overriding powers . In the case of conflicting legislation , a joint sitting of the two houses can be held . However , since the Lok Sabha has twice as many members as the Rajya Sabha , the former would normally hold the greater power . Joint sittings of the Houses of Parliament of India are rare , and in the history of the Republic , only three such joint - sessions have been held ; the latest one for the passage of the 2002 Prevention of Terrorism Act . </P> <P> The Vice-President of India ( currently , Venkaiah Naidu ) is the ex-officio Chairman of the Rajya Sabha , who presides over its sessions . The Deputy Chairman , who is elected from amongst the house 's members , takes care of the day - to - day matters of the house in the absence of the Chairman . The Rajya Sabha held its first sitting on 13 May 1952 . The salary and other benefits for a member of Rajya Sabha are same as for a member of Lok Sabha . </P> <P> Rajya Sabha members are elected by state legislatures rather than directly through the electorate by single transferable vote method . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Qualifications </Li> <Li> 2 Limitations <Ul> <Li>

It was entered into the 19th Moscow International Film Festival and was screened in the Un Certain Regard section at the 1995 Cannes Film Festival . </P> <P> The film is based on a story heard by Christopher Monger from his grandfather about the real village of Taff 's Well , in the old county of Glamorgan , and its neighbouring Garth Hill . Due to 20th century urbanisation of the area , it was filmed in the more rural Llanrhaeadr - ym - Mochnant and Llansilin in Powys . The Welsh Male Voice Choir used to provide background music throughout the film was , in fact , the London - based Gwalia Male Choir . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Plot </Li> <Li> 2 Cast </Li> <Li> 3 Reception </Li> <Li> 4 Welsh language </Li> <Li> 5 In popular culture </Li> <Li> 6 See also </Li> <Li> 7 References </Li> <Li> 8 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Plot ( edit ) </H2> <P> The film is set in 1917 ( with World War I in the background ) , and revolves around two English cartographers , the pompous Garrad ( Ian McNeice ) and his junior , Anson ( Hugh Grant ) . They arrive at the fictional Welsh village of Ffynnon Garw ( ( ˈfɪn. nɔn ˈɡa. rʊ ) `` Rough Fountain '' or `` Rough Spring '' in Welsh ) to measure its `` mountain '' -- only to cause outrage when they conclude that it is only a hill because it is slightly short of the required 1000 feet ( 305 m ) in height . The villagers , aided and abetted by the wily Morgan the Goat ( Colm Meaney ) and the Reverend Mr Jones ( Kenneth Griffith ) ( who after initially opposing the scheme , grasps its symbolism in restoring the community 's war - damaged self - esteem ) , conspire with Morgan to delay the cartographers ' departure while they build an earth mound on top of the hill to make it high enough to be considered a mountain . </P> <H2> Cast ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> Hugh Grant as Reginald Anson </Li> <Li> Ian McNeice as George Garrad </Li> <Li> Tara FitzGerald as Elizabeth / Betty from Cardiff </Li> <Li> Colm Meaney as Morgan the Goat </Li> <Li> Ian Hart as Johnny Shellshocked </Li> <Li> Robert Pugh as Williams the Petroleum </Li> <Li> Kenneth Griffith as the Reverend Robert Jones </Li> <Li> Ieuan Rhys as Sgt Thomas </Li> </Ul> <H2> Reception ( edit ) </H2> <P> In regard to its humorous and affectionate description of the locals , the film has often been compared with Waking Ned , a comedy film written and directed by Kirk Jones . The movie has resulted in a stream of visitors climbing to the summit of The Garth , and the Pentyrch History Society and the local community council have erected a notice on the mountain to explain its real historical significance . </P> <H2> Welsh language ( edit ) </H2> <P> One of the most obscure jokes in the film occurs when a mechanic is asked about a nondescript broken part he has removed from a car , and replies `` Well I do n't know the English word , but in Welsh we call it a be'chi'ngalw . '' In Welsh , be'chi'ngalw is a placeholder name , like `` whatchamacallit '' or `` thingamajig '' in English . This is made obvious in the novel of the film . </P> <H2> In popular culture ( edit ) </H2> <P> The 13th episode of Veggie Tales , `` King George and the Ducky , '' contained a brief parody of The Englishman Who Went up a Hill but Came down a Mountain entitled The Englishman Who Went up a Hill and Came Down with All the Bananas . </P> <H2> See also ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> English - language accents in film -- Welsh </Li> <Li> Mynydd Graig Goch , a member of the Moel Hebog group of summits .

The region came under the control of the British in the 18th and 19th centuries , and was annexed to the Bengal Presidency , the largest province of British India . After the Kol rebellion of 1831 - 2 , the division was exempted by Regulation XIII of 1833 from the general laws and regulations governing Bengal , and every branch of the administration was vested in an officer appointed by the supreme Government and called the Agent to the Governor - General of India for the South - West Frontier . </P> <P> In 1854 the designation of South - West Frontier Agency was changed to Chota Nagpur and it began to be administered as a Non-regulation province under the Lieutenant Governor of the then Bihar .

fell on surrounding farmland and stock had to be moved . The ash also entered streams and was washed into the pen stocks and turbines of the Rangipo power station causing rapid corrosion on the turbine blades which had to be rebuilt . Episodic eruptions continued until the end of November 1995 . </P> <P> Within hours of a major eruption during the night being reported on 25 September 1995 , news media were trying to get live video of the eruption and amateur photographers had published eruption images on the World Wide Web . A web camera , dubbed the world 's first `` Volcano Cam '' , was set up . Since then Ruapehu has been monitored by at least one and sometimes several volcano cams . </P> Crater Lake & Tahurangi , the highest peak ( top right ) . The 1996 tephra dam ( bluish dark area at lake edge directly below Tahurangi ) . Photo 2016 <P> Another , smaller , eruption phase began on the morning of 17 June 1996 . Despite a series of small eruptions that spread thin layers of ash across both Whakapapa and Turoa ski areas , the ski fields opened for the 1996 season . Turoa closed on 29 September -- earlier than usual , while Whakapapa stayed open until Labour Weekend . </P> <P> After the 1996 eruption it was recognised that a catastrophic lahar could again occur when Crater Lake bursts the volcanic ash dam blocking the lake outlet . This is the same mechanism that caused the 1953 lahar . The lake gradually filled with snowmelt and had reached the level of the hard rock rim by January 2005 . The lahar finally occurred on 18 March 2007 ( see below ) . </P> <Dl> <Dt> 2006 eruption </Dt> </Dl> <P> Ruapehu erupted at 10.30 pm on 4 October 2006 . The small eruption created a volcanic earthquake at a magnitude of 2.8 , sending a water plume 200 m into the air and 6 - m waves crashing into the wall of the crater . </P> <Dl> <Dt> 2007 lahar </Dt> </Dl> Fresh lahar channels scar Ruapehu 's eastern slopes , 2007 . <P> On 18 March 2007 , the tephra dam which had been holding back Crater Lake burst , sending a lahar down the mountain . An estimated 1.4 million cubic metres of mud , rock , and water travelled down the Whangaehu river . The Department of Conservation had received warning signals from the lahar warning system ( ERLAWS ) at around 10 : 30 that morning and closed all major roads in the area , preventing thousands of motorists from travelling , and shut down the main rail system for the North Island . The river banks held and no spill overs occurred . No serious damage was done and no one was injured . One family was trapped for around 24 hours after the lahar swept away the access route to their home . </P> <Dl> <Dt> 2007 eruption </Dt> </Dl> <P> At about 8 : 20 p.m. on 25 September 2007 , a hydrothermal eruption occurred without warning . William Pike , a 22 - year - old primary school teacher , had a leg crushed by a rock during the eruption and a rescue operation was mounted to rescue him from the Dome Shelter near the crater . The rock crashed into the Dome Shelter , landed on the man and was too heavy for his companion to lift off . </P> <P> Two lahars that travelled down the mountain activated warning signals from the lahar warning system and prompted the evacuation of some ski lodges on the mountain and the closure of roads in the area . The eruption was accompanied by a 7 - minute - long earthquake , measuring 2.9 on the Richter Scale . </P> <Dl> <Dt> 2008 warnings </Dt> </Dl> <P> On 2 May 2008 , a level - 1 warning was issued after GNS scientists who were monitoring the lake found irregular signs of volcanic activity . This included increased chemical changes , gases and temperature . The warning was used to let visitors know the potential of an explosion was higher than usual and could happen at any time . This could also be a follow - up to the previous year 's 2007 eruption . </P> <P> A GeoNet New Zealand Bulletin was released on 21 July 2008 stating that `` the current phase of volcano unrest appears to be over , however Ruapehu remains an active volcano . Future eruptions may occur without warning . '' However the level has remained at 1 , where it has been since 1997 . </P> <Dl> <Dt> 2011 warnings </Dt> </Dl> <P> On 5 April 2011 Geonet changed Mount Ruapehu 's Volcanic Aviation Colour Code from Green to Yellow ( elevated unrest above the known background ) . Ruapehu 's Volcanic Alert Level remained at level 1 ( signs of volcanic unrest ) . The Volcanic Aviation Colour Code was changed because a sustained period of high water temperatures in the Crater Lake ( approximately 38 - 39 ° C ) was observed and because changes were observed in volcanic gas output , seismic activity and Crater Lake water chemistry . </P> <Dl> <Dt> 2012 warnings </Dt> </Dl> <P> On 16 November , GNS Science volcanologists warned that pressure was likely building up beneath Crater Lake , and that an eruption in the coming weeks or months is more likely than normal . The aviation colour code was raised from green to yellow . </P> <Dl> <Dt> 2016 warnings </Dt> </Dl> <P> On 29 April , Geonet issued a volcanic alert reporting that Crater Lake 's temperature has risen to 40 ° C , up from 25 ° C in mid-April . An earthquake swarm has also been recorded under Crater Lake . On 11 May the volcanic alert level was raised to level 2 and the aviation colour code was changed from green to yellow . </P> <H2> Ski fields ( edit ) </H2> Turoa

the Huntsman ( 2012 ) . Condon later explained that `` after Frozen opened , the studio saw that there was this big international audience for an old - school - musical approach . But initially , they said , ' We 're interested in a musical to a degree , but only half full of songs . ' My interest was taking that film and doing it in this new medium -- live - action -- as a full - on musical movie . So I backed out for a minute , and they came back and said , ' No , no , no , we get it , let 's pursue it that way . ' '' Walt Disney Pictures president of production Sean Bailey credited Walt Disney Studios chairman Alan F. Horn with the decision to make the film as a musical : `` We worked on this for five or six years , and for 18 months to two years , Beauty was a serious dramatic project , and the scripts were written to reflect that . It was n't a musical at that time . But we just could n't get it to click and it was Alan Horn who championed the idea of owning the Disney of it all . We realized there was a competitive advantage in the songs . What is wrong with making adults feel like kids again ? '' </P> <H3> Casting ( edit ) </H3> <P> In January 2015 , Emma Watson announced that she would be starring as Belle , the female lead . She was the first choice of Walt Disney Studios chairman Alan F. Horn , as he had previously overseen Warner Bros. which released the eight Harry Potter films that co-starred Watson as Hermione Granger . Two months later , Luke Evans and Dan Stevens were revealed to be in talks to play Gaston and the Beast respectively , and Watson confirmed their casting the following day through tweets . The rest of the principal cast , including Josh Gad , Emma Thompson , Kevin Kline , Audra McDonald , Ian McKellen , Gugu Mbatha - Raw , Ewan McGregor and Stanley Tucci were announced between March and April to play LeFou , Mrs. Potts , Maurice , Madame de Garderobe , Cogsworth , Plumette , Lumière and Cadenza , respectively . </P> <P> Susan Egan , who originated the role of Belle on Broadway , commented on the casting of Watson as `` perfect '' . Paige O'Hara voiced Belle in the original animated film and its sequels , offered to help Watson with her singing lessons . </P> <P> According to The Hollywood Reporter , Emma Watson was reportedly paid $3 million upfront , together with an agreement that her final take - home pay could rise as high as $15 million if the film generated gross box office income similar to Maleficent 's $759 million worldwide gross . </P> <H3> Filming ( edit ) </H3> <P> Principal photography on the film began at Shepperton Studios in Surrey , United Kingdom , on May 18 , 2015 . Filming with the principal actors concluded on August 21 . Six days later , co-producer Jack Morrissey confirmed that the film had officially wrapped production . </P> <P> The Beast was portrayed with a `` more traditional motion capture puppeteering for the body and the physical orientation '' , where actor Dan Stevens was `` in a forty - pound gray suit on stilts for much of the film '' . The facial capture for the Beast was done separately in order to `` communicate the subtleties of the human face '' and `` ( capture the ) thought that occurs to him '' which gets `` through ( to ) the eyes , which are the last human element in the Beast . '' The castle servants who are transformed into household objects were created with CGI animation . </P> <P> Before the release of the film , Bill Condon refilmed one certain sequence in the `` Days of the Sun '' number , due to confusion among test audiences caused by actress Harriet Jones , who looked similar to Hattie Morahan , who portrayed Agathe . In the original version of the scene , it was Jones 's character , the Prince 's mother , who sings the first verse of the song , with Rudi Goodman playing the young Prince and Henry Garrett playing his father ; but in the reshot version of the scene , the singing part is given to the Prince ( now played by Adam Mitchell ) . The King was also recast to Tom Turner , although Harriet Jones was still the Queen , albeit with dark hair . Both Goodman and Garrett 's names were mistakenly featured in the original theatrical release 's credits , but was later corrected in home releases . </P> <H3> Music ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Beauty and the Beast ( 2017 soundtrack ) <P> When released in 1991 , Beauty and the Beast , marked a turning point for Walt Disney Pictures by appealing to millions of fans with its Oscar - winning musical score by lyricist Howard Ashman and composer Alan Menken . In Bill Condon 's opinion , that original score was the key reason he agreed to direct a live - action version of the movie . `` That score had more to reveal '' , he says , `` You look at the songs and there 's not a clunker in the group . In fact , Frank Rich described it as the best Broadway musical of 1991 . The animated version was already darker and more modern than the previous Disney fairytales . Take that vision , put it into a new medium , make it a radical reinvention , something not just for the stage because it 's not just being literal , now other elements come into play . It 's not just having real actors do it '' . </P> <P> Condon initially

Game seven - wikipedia <H1> Game seven </H1> Jump to : navigation , search `` Game 7 '' redirects here . For the song by T.I. , see We Want Smoke . <P> A game seven is the final game of a best of seven series . This game can occur in the postseasons for Major League Baseball ( MLB ) ( League Championship Series and World Series ) , the National Basketball Association ( NBA ) ( all rounds of the NBA playoffs ) , and the National Hockey League ( NHL ) ( all rounds of the Stanley Cup playoffs ) . </P> <P> The game is generally played at the site of the team holding the home advantage across the series . </P> <P> The nature of a best - of - seven series requires that the series be tied at three games apiece going into game seven , such that either team can take the series ( advancing further in the playoffs or winning the championship ) by winning the game . Because of this decisive nature , game sevens add an element of drama to their sports . </P> <P> Aside from North American sports leagues , game sevens are also a fixture in many other sports around the world , mostly in baseball , basketball , and ice hockey leagues . Most codes of football do not employ a best - of - seven series ( or any best - of - x series in general ) , hence game sevens are not played in those leagues . </P> <P> Some playoff rounds ( such as MLB 's current Division Series ) are played in a best of five format , such that game five has similar qualities to those described above , though the suspense and drama have less time to build in a shorter series . Furthermore , the World Series of 1903 , 1919 , 1920 , and 1921 were played in a best of nine format , though none of the four went to a decisive game nine . </P> <P> The game seven is comparable to a final or to a single game in a single - elimination tournament or to a one - game playoff . The game is equivalent to the Super Bowl game in the National Football League in that the game 's winner is the league 's champion for the season . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Examples <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Major League Baseball <Ul> <Li> 1.1. 1 World Series </Li> <Li> 1.1. 2 League Championship Series </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 1.2 National Hockey League </Li> <Li> 1.3 National Basketball Association </Li> <Li> 1.4 Chinese Professional Baseball League </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Comebacks </Li> <Li> 3 References </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Examples ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Major League Baseball ( edit ) </H3> <P> In the MLB Postseason , game seven can occur in the League Championship Series and the World Series ( the divisional series are best of five ) .

Birth in the U.S. establishes automatic eligibility for American citizenship , so a birth certificate from a local authority is commonly provided to the federal government to obtain a U.S. passport . However , the U.S. State Department does issue a Consular Report of Birth Abroad for children born to U.S. citizens ( who are also eligible for citizenship ) , including births on military bases in foreign territory . </P> <P> The federal and state governments have traditionally cooperated to some extent to improve vital statistics . From 1900 to 1946 the U.S. Census Bureau designed standard birth certificates , collected vital statistics on a national basis , and generally sought to improve the accuracy of vital statistics . In 1946 that responsibility was passed to the U.S. Public Health Service . Unlike the British system of recording all births in `` registers '' , the states file an individual document for each and every birth . </P> <P> The U.S. National Center for Health Statistics creates standard forms that are recommended for use by the individual states to document births . However , states are free to create their own forms . As a result , neither the appearance nor the information content of birth certificate forms is uniform across states . These forms are completed by the attendant at birth or a hospital administrator , which are then forwarded to a local or state registrar , who stores the record and issues certified copies upon request . </P> <H3> Types of certified copies issued ( edit ) </H3> <P> According to the Department of Health and Human Services , Office of Inspector General , as of 2000 there were more than 6,000 entities issuing birth certificates .

Please note , some short ( abstract ) versions of birth certificates may not be acceptable for passport purposes . </P> <P> Beginning April 1 , 2011 , all birth certificates must also include the full names of the applicant 's parent ( s ) . </P> <P> The U.S. State Department has paid close attention to abstract certificates from both Texas and California .

Published in 1966 , the book was the biggest selling novel of its year . To date , it has sold more than 31 million copies , making it one of the best - selling works in publishing history . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Plot summary </Li> <Li> 2 Background </Li> <Li> 3 Reception </Li> <Li> 4 Adaptations </Li> <Li> 5 Notes </Li> <Li> 6 References </Li> <Li> 7 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Plot summary ( edit ) </H2> <P> The novel tells the story of three young women who become fast friends in the turbulent post-war worlds of Broadway and Hollywood : Anne Welles , a reserved New England beauty who sees New York as the romantic city of her dreams ; Neely O'Hara , an ebullient vaudevillian with a talent she does n't fully understand ; and Jennifer North , a sweet - natured showgirl who wants only to be loved . As life becomes difficult , each woman grows increasingly dependent on `` dolls , '' the amphetamines and barbiturates which , for a time , seem to help . </P> <P> Crossing their paths are such people as Helen Lawson , a brilliant but ruthless Broadway legend ; Lyon Burke , a magnetic but self - centered theatrical attorney ; Tony Polar , a child - like but sexually aggressive pop singer ; Kevin Gillmore , a powerful but lovesick cosmetics tycoon ; and Ted Casablaca , a potent but opportunistic fashion designer . </P> <P> Over the course of twenty eventful years ( 1945 -- 1965 ) , each of the women strives to ascend the Mount Everest of her dreams , only to find herself back in the valley of the dolls . </P> <H2> Background ( edit ) </H2> <P> Susann had apparently been thinking about the novel for some time . Some years earlier , she had begun a show business novel , Underneath the Pancake , with her friend , actress Beatrice Cole ( c. 1910 -- 1999 ) . Later , she considered writing a novel about drug usage in show business to be called The Pink Dolls . </P> <P> Valley of the Dolls is widely considered to be a roman a clef , with its characters based on such famous figures as Judy Garland , Carole Landis , Dean Martin , and Ethel Merman . In 1973 , after publication of her third novel , Susann said , `` They can keep calling it that ( roman a clef ) . It 'll only make my books sell , I do n't care . '' Susann insisted that she began each book with a theme : `` Then I start asking , what kind of a personality ? And because I have a good ear , I unconsciously pick up certain people . '' </P> <P> Susann dedicated the book to her poodle , Josephine , and to her husband , Irving Mansfield . </P> <H2> Reception ( edit ) </H2> <P> The book was published by Bernard Geis Associates on February 10 , 1966 , and `` took off like a Cape Canaveral space shot . '' </P> <P> Although Publishers Weekly , in an advance review , called the novel `` big , brilliant and sensational '' ( if `` poorly written '' ) , the book received largely negative reviews . Gloria Steinem panned the book in The New York Herald Tribune as did the reviewer in The New York Times . Time magazine called it the `` Dirty Book of the Month , '' and said , `` it might more accurately be described as a highly effective sedative , a living doll . '' </P> <P> Despite the poor reviews , the book was a commercial juggernaut . On May 8 , 1966 , in its ninth week on the list , the book reached # 1 on the New York Times Best Seller List , where it remained for 28 consecutive weeks . With a total of 65 weeks on the list , the book became the best selling novel of 1966 . By the time of Susann 's death in 1974 , it had entered the Guinness Book of World Records as the best selling novel in publishing history , with more than 17 million copies sold . By 2016 , the book had sold more than 31 million copies . </P> <H2> Adaptations ( edit ) </H2> <P> In 1967 the book was adapted into a film of the same name , directed by Mark Robson ( Peyton Place ) , and starring Barbara Parkins ( as Anne ) , Patty Duke ( Neely ) , Paul Burke ( Lyon ) , Sharon Tate ( Jennifer ) , and Susan Hayward ( Helen ) . The movie was written by Helen Deutsch ( National Velvet ) and Dorothy Kingsley ( Seven Brides for Seven Brothers ) , and produced by Robson and David Weisbart . Reviews were scathing , but the film was an enormous box - office hit , becoming the sixth most popular of the year with $44 million at the domestic box office . Susann , who had a cameo as a news reporter , hated the film , reportedly telling director Robson that it was `` a piece of shit . ''

( September 2010 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) </Td> </Tr> </Table> Guinness floating widget Guinness beer bottle widget <P> A widget is a device placed in a container of beer to manage the characteristics of the beer 's head . The original widget was patented in Ireland by Guinness . The `` floating widget '' is found in cans of beer as a hollow plastic sphere , approximately 3 cm in diameter ( similar in appearance to table tennis ball , but smaller ) with at least one small hole and a seam . The `` rocket widget '' is found in bottles , 7 cm in length with the small hole at the bottom . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Background </Li> <Li> 2 Method </Li> <Li> 3 Development </Li> <Li> 4 Beer glass widget </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> <Li> 6 Bibliography </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Background ( edit ) </H2> <P> Draught Guinness , as it is known today , was first produced in 1964 . With Guinness keen to produce draught beer packaged for consumers to drink at home , Bottled Draught Guinness was formulated in 1978 and launched into the Irish market in 1979 . It was never actively marketed internationally as it required an `` initiator '' device , which looked rather like a syringe , to make it work . </P> <H2> Method ( edit ) </H2> <P> Some canned beers are pressurized by adding liquid nitrogen , which vaporises and expands in volume after the can is sealed , forcing gas and beer into the widget 's hollow interior through a tiny hole -- the less beer the better for subsequent head quality . In addition , some nitrogen dissolves in the beer which also contains dissolved carbon dioxide . Oxygen is generally excluded as its presence can cause flavour deterioration . </P> <P> The presence of dissolved nitrogen allows smaller bubbles to be formed , which increases the creaminess of the head . This is because the smaller bubbles need a higher internal pressure to balance the greater surface tension , which is inversely proportional to the radius of the bubbles . Achieving this higher pressure would not be possible with just dissolved carbon dioxide , as the greater solubility of this gas compared to nitrogen would create an unacceptably large head . </P> <P> When the can is opened , the pressure in the can quickly drops , causing the pressurised gas and beer inside the widget to jet out from the hole . This agitation on the surrounding beer causes a chain reaction of bubble formation throughout the beer . The result , when the can is then poured out , is a surging mixture in the glass of very small gas bubbles and liquid . </P> <P> This is the case with certain types of draught beer such as draught stouts . In the case of these draught beers , which before dispensing also contain a mixture of dissolved nitrogen and carbon dioxide , the agitation is caused by forcing the beer under pressure through small holes in a restrictor in the tap . The surging mixture gradually settles to produce a very creamy head . </P> <H2> Development ( edit ) </H2> Expired British Patent No 1266351 , filed 27 January 1969 Diagram of Acorn Can <P> In 1969 two Guinness brewers at Guinness 's St James 's Gate brewery in Dublin , Tony Carey and Sammy Hildebrand , developed a system for producing draught type Guinness from cans or bottles through the discharge of gas from an internal compartment . It was patented in British Patent No 1266351 , filed 27 January 1969 , with a complete specification published 8 March 1972 . </P> <P> Development work on a can system under Project ACORN ( Advanced Cans Of Rich Nectar ) focused on an arrangement whereby a false lid underneath the main lid formed the gas chamber ( see diagram below right ) . </P> <P> Technical difficulties led to this approach being put on hold , and Guinness instead concentrated on bottles using external initiators . Subsequently , Guinness allowed this patent to lapse and it was not until Ernest Saunders centralised the company 's research and development in 1984 that work restarted on this invention , under the direction of Alan Forage . </P> Development sequence for canned draught Guinness Development sequence for bottled draught Guinness <P> The design of an internal compartment that could be readily inserted during the canning process was devised by Alan Forage and William Byrne , and work started on the widget during the period 1984 -- 85 . The plan was to introduce a plastic capsule into the can , pressurise it during the filling process and then allow it to release this pressure in a controlled manner when the can was opened . This would be sufficient to initiate the product and give it the characteristic creamy head . However , Tony Carey observed that this resulted in beer being forced into the widget during pressurisation , which reduced the quality of the head . He suggested overcoming this by rapidly inverting the can after the lid was seamed on . This extra innovation proved successful . </P> <P> The first samples sent to Dublin were labelled `` Project Dynamite '' , which caused some delay before customs and excise would release the samples . Because of this the name was changed to Oaktree in recognition of the earlier ACORN project . Another name that changed was `` inserts '' ; the operators called them `` widgets '' almost immediately after they arrived on site , a name that has now stuck with the industry

He worked as a rigger on the Sydney Harbour Bridge . </P> <H2> Career ( edit ) </H2> <P> Hogan 's first public appearance was on Australian television , the Nine Network 's amateur talent program New Faces in 1971 . Hogan had observed to his Harbour Bridge workmates that the program 's entertainment value relied significantly on the judges ridiculing and belittling the performers , and suggested the judges deserved similar treatment . Hogan inveigled his way onto the program by claiming to be a `` tap - dancing knife - thrower '' . Hogan appeared on stage in his work boots , holding kitchen knives ; he performed a rudimentary shuffle , threw the knives onto the floor and proceeded to make a series of jokes at the judges ' expense . Strong positive response from the viewing public saw Hogan invited back for repeated performances on New Faces ; in another of these , he proposed to `` play the shovels '' , which consisted of banging two shovels together a few times before making a series of jokes . Hogan 's natural ability as a comedic performer attracted the attention of Mike Willesee , host of Nine 's news magazine program A Current Affair . Willesee offered Hogan regular appearances on the show , during which Hogan would make humorous comment on some issue of the day . During this time Hogan befriended Current Affair producer John Cornell , who became Hogan 's manager and business partner . </P> <P> Hogan followed this with his own comedy sketch program The Paul Hogan Show , which he produced and wrote , and in which he played characters with Cornell and Delvene Delaney . The series , which ran for 60 episodes between 1973 and 1984 , was popular in his native country and South Africa , and showcased his trademark lighthearted but laddish ocker humour . Hogan won the 1973 TV Week Logie Award for ' Best New Talent ' . The early series was on Channel Seven and by 1975 , it was screened on Channel Nine where it remained until the end of 1984 . </P> <P> In the 1970s , he advertised Winfield cigarettes in television , print and billboard advertisements in which he wore a formal dinner suit . These ads always ended with the catchphrase `` Anyhow , have a Winfield '' . During the early 1980s , Hogan filmed a series of television ads promoting the Australian tourism industry , which aired in the United States . An advertisement with the phrase `` shrimp on the barbie '' which aired from 1984 , was particularly successful . </P> <P> In 1985 , Hogan starred as an Australian World War I ' digger ' named Pat Cleary in the critically acclaimed mini-series Anzacs which aired on the Nine Network . Cleary was described as the quintessential Aussie larrikin and series writer John Dixon wrote the part of Cleary with Hogan in mind . The series included a `` who 's who '' of Australian television and film actors of the day including Jon Blake , Andrew Clarke , Megan Williams , Tony Bonner , Bill Kerr , Ilona Rodgers , Vivean Gray and Robert Coleby . </P> <P> Throughout the decade , he appeared on British TV in advertisements for Foster 's Lager , in which he played an earthy Australian abroad in London . The character 's most notable line ( spoken incredulously at a ballet performance ) `` Struth , there 's a bloke down there with no strides on ! '' , followed Hogan for years , and the popularity of its `` fish out of water '' humour was repeated with his next endeavour . In another advertisement from the same Foster 's series , Hogan 's character is approached in a London Tube station by a Japanese tourist who asks , ' Do you know the way to Cockfosters ?

They are associated with palpable nodules in taut bands of muscle fibers . They are a topic of ongoing controversy , as there is limited data to inform a scientific understanding of the phenomenon . Accordingly , a formal acceptance of myofascial `` knots '' as an identifiable source of pain is more common among bodyworkers , physical therapists , chiropractors , and osteopathic practitioners . Nonetheless , the concept of trigger points provides a framework which may be used to help address certain musculoskeletal pain . </P> <P> The trigger point model states that unexplained pain frequently radiates from these points of local tenderness to broader areas , sometimes distant from the trigger point itself . Practitioners claim to have identified reliable referred pain patterns which associate pain in one location with trigger points elsewhere . There is variation in the methodology for diagnosis of trigger points and a dearth of theory to explain how they arise and why they produce specific patterns of referred pain . </P> <P> Compression of a trigger point may elicit local tenderness , referred pain , or local twitch response . The local twitch response is not the same as a muscle spasm . This is because a muscle spasm refers to the entire muscle contracting whereas the local twitch response also refers to the entire muscle but only involves a small twitch , no contraction . </P> <P> Among physicians , various specialists might use trigger point therapy . These include physiatrists ( physicians specializing in physical medicine and rehabilitation ) , family medicine , and orthopedics . Osteopathic as well as chiropractic schools also include trigger points in their training . Other health professionals , such as athletic trainers , occupational therapists , physiotherapists , acupuncturists , massage therapists and structural integrators are also aware of these ideas and many of them make use of trigger points in their clinical work as well . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Definition </Li> <Li> 2 Diagnosis <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Imaging </Li> <Li> 2.2 Myofascial pain syndrome </Li> <Li> 2.3 Misdiagnosis of pain </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Pathophysiology </Li> <Li> 4 Treatment <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Physical muscle treatment </Li> <Li> 4.2 Trigger - point - injection </Li> <Li> 4.3 Risks </Li> <Li> 4.4 Efficacy </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 Overlap with acupuncture </Li> <Li> 6 See also </Li> <Li> 7 References </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Definition ( edit ) </H2> <P> The term `` trigger point '' was coined in 1942 by Dr. Janet Travell to describe a clinical finding with the following characteristics : </P> <Ul> <Li> Pain related to a discrete , irritable point in skeletal muscle or fascia , not caused by acute local trauma , inflammation , degeneration , neoplasm or infection . </Li> <Li> The painful point can be felt as a nodule or band in the muscle , and a twitch response can be elicited on stimulation of the trigger point . </Li> <Li> Palpation of the trigger point reproduces the patient 's complaint of pain , and the pain radiates in a distribution typical of the specific muscle harboring the trigger point . </Li> <Li> The pain can not be explained by findings on neurological examination . </Li> </Ul> <H2> Diagnosis ( edit ) </H2> <P> Practitioners do not agree on what constitutes a trigger point , but the assessment typically considers symptoms , pain patterns and manual palpation . Usually there is a taut band in muscles containing trigger points , and a hard nodule can be felt . Often a twitch response can be felt in the muscle by running your finger perpendicular to the muscle 's direction ; this twitch response often activates the `` all or nothing '' response in a muscle that causes it to contract . Pressing on an affected muscle can often refer pain . Clusters of trigger points are not uncommon in some of the larger muscles , such as the gluteus group ( gluteus maximus , gluteus medius , and gluteus minimus ) . Often there is a heat differential in the local area of a trigger point . </P> <P> A 2007 review of diagnostic criteria used in studies of trigger points concluded that </P> <Dl> <Dd> there is as yet limited consensus on case definition in respect of MTrP pain syndrome . Further research is needed to test the reliability and validity of diagnostic criteria . Until reliable diagnostic criteria have been established , there is a need for greater transparency in research papers on how a case of MTrP pain syndrome is defined , and claims for effective interventions in treating the condition should be viewed with caution . </Dd> </Dl> <P> A 2009 review of nine studies examining the reliability of trigger point diagnosis found that physical examination could not be recommended as reliable for the diagnosis of trigger points . </P> <H3> Imaging ( edit ) </H3> <P> A 2008 review in Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation of two recent studies concludes they present findings that can reduce some of the controversy surrounding the cause and identification of myofascial trigger points ( MTPs ) .

Egypt was administered as an eyalet of the Ottoman Empire ( Ottoman Turkish : ایالت مصر ‎ ‎ Eyālet - i Mıṣr ) from 1517 until 1867 , with an interruption during the French occupation of 1798 to 1801 . </P> <P> Egypt was always a difficult province for the Ottoman Sultans to control , due in part to the continuing power and influence of the Mamluks , the Egyptian military caste who had ruled the country for centuries . As such , Egypt remained semi-autonomous under the Mamluks until it was invaded by the French forces of Napoleon I in 1798 . After the French were expelled , power was seized in 1805 by Muhammad Ali Pasha , an Albanian military commander of the Ottoman army in Egypt . </P> <P> Egypt under the Muhammad Ali dynasty remained nominally an Ottoman province . It was granted the status of an autonomous vassal state or Khedivate in 1867 . Isma'il Pasha and Tewfik Pasha governed Egypt as a quasi-independent state under Ottoman suzerainty until the British occupation of 1882 . Nevertheless , the Khedivate of Egypt ( 1867 -- 1914 ) remained a de jure Ottoman province until 5 November 1914 , when it was declared a British protectorate in reaction to the decision of the Young Turks of the Ottoman Empire to join the First World War on the side of the Central Powers . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Early Ottoman period <Ul> <Li> 1.1. 1 1527 to 1610 </Li> <Li> 1.1. 2 1623 to 1656 </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 1.2 Later Ottoman period <Ul> <Li> 1.2. 1 1707 to 1755 </Li> <Li> 1.2. 2 1766 to 1798 </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 1.3 French occupation <Ul> <Li> 1.3. 1 Object of invasion </Li> <Li> 1.3. 2 Battle of the Nile </Li> <Li> 1.3. 3 Defeat of the Turkish army </Li> <Li> 1.3. 4 Assassination </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 1.4 Egypt under Muhammad Ali <Ul> <Li> 1.4. 1 Muhammad Ali 's seizure of power </Li> <Li> 1.4. 2 Campaign against the Saudis ( 1811 -- 1818 ) </Li> <Li> 1.4. 3 Reforms ( 1808 -- 1823 ) </Li> <Li> 1.4. 4 Economy </Li> <Li> 1.4. 5 Invasion of Libya and Sudan ( 1820 ) </Li> <Li> 1.4. 6 Expansion into Somalia ( 1821 ) </Li> <Li> 1.4. 7 Ahmad Revolt ( 1824 ) </Li> <Li> 1.4. 8 Greek campaign ( 1824 -- 1828 ) </Li> <Li> 1.4. 9 War with the Sultan ( 1831 -- 1841 ) </Li> <Li> 1.4. 10 End of Muhammad Ali 's rule </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 1.5 Muhammad Ali 's successors </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Administrative divisions </Li> <Li> 3 List of rulers <Ul> <Li> 3.1 List of Ottoman governors of Egypt ( 1517 -- 1805 ) </Li> <Li> 3.2 List of monarchs of the Muhammad Ali Dynasty ( 1805 -- 1914 ) </Li> <Li> 3.3 List of Grand Viziers of Egypt ( 1857 -- 1878 ) </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 See also </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> <Li> 6 Further reading </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Early Ottoman period ( edit ) </H3> The Eyalet in 1609 <Table> <Tr> <Th> Part of a series on the </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> History of Egypt </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> <Table> <Tr> <Td> Prehistoric Egypt </Td> <Td> pre -- 3150 BC </Td> </Tr> </Table> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> <Table> <Tr> <Th colspan="2"> Ancient Egypt </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Early Dynastic Period </Td> <Td> 3150 -- 2686 BC </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Old Kingdom </Td> <Td> 2686 -- 2181 BC </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 1st Intermediate Period </Td> <Td> 2181 -- 2055 BC </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Middle Kingdom </Td> <Td> 2055 -- 1650 BC </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 2nd Intermediate Period </Td> <Td> 1650 -- 1550 BC </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> New Kingdom </Td> <Td> 1550 -- 1069 BC </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 3rd Intermediate

The Continental Congress declared that the thirteen American colonies regarded themselves as a new nation , the United States of America , and were no longer part of the British Empire . The Congress actually voted to declare independence two days earlier , on July 2 . </P> <P> Independence Day is commonly associated with fireworks , parades , barbecues , carnivals , fairs , picnics , concerts , baseball games , family reunions , and political speeches and ceremonies , in addition to various other public and private events celebrating the history , government , and traditions of the United States .

After voting for independence , Congress turned its attention to the Declaration of Independence , a statement explaining this decision , which had been prepared by a Committee of Five , with Thomas Jefferson as its principal author . Congress debated and revised the wording of the Declaration , finally approving it two days later on July 4 . A day earlier , John Adams had written to his wife Abigail : </P> <P> The second day of July , 1776 , will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America . I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival . It ought to be commemorated as the day of deliverance , by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty . It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade , with shows , games , sports , guns , bells , bonfires , and illuminations , from one end of this continent to the other , from this time forward forever more . </P> <P> Adams 's prediction was off by two days . From the outset , Americans celebrated independence on July 4 , the date shown on the much - publicized Declaration of Independence , rather than on July 2 , the date the resolution of independence was approved in a closed session of Congress . </P> <P> Historians have long disputed whether members of Congress signed the Declaration of Independence on July 4 , even though Thomas Jefferson , John Adams , and Benjamin Franklin all later wrote that they had signed it on that day . Most historians have concluded that the Declaration was signed nearly a month after its adoption , on August 2 , 1776 , and not on July 4 as is commonly believed . </P> <P> Coincidentally , both John Adams and Thomas Jefferson , the only signers of the Declaration of Independence later to serve as Presidents of the United States , died on the same day : July 4 , 1826 , which was the 50th anniversary of the Declaration . Although not a signer of the Declaration of Independence , James Monroe , another Founding Father who was elected as President , also died on July 4 , 1831 . He was the third President in a row who died on the anniversary of independence . Calvin Coolidge , the 30th President , was born on July 4 , 1872 ; so far he is the only U.S. President to have been born on Independence Day . </P> <H2> Observance </H2> <Ul> <Li> In 1777 , thirteen gunshots were fired in salute , once at morning and once again as evening fell , on July 4 in Bristol , Rhode Island . Philadelphia celebrated the first anniversary in a manner a modern American would find familiar : an official dinner for the Continental Congress , toasts , 13 - gun salutes , speeches , prayers , music , parades , troop reviews , and fireworks . Ships in port were decked with red , white , and blue bunting . </Li> <Li> In 1778 , from his headquarters at Ross Hall , near New

There were , however , bold adventurers who could perceive dimly the inevitable trend in India 's political evolution . Harish Chandra Mukherjee wrote in the Hindu Patriot on 14 January 1858 , in connection with the proposal for transferring the government of India to the Crown : `` Can a revolution in the Indian government be authorised by Parliament without consulting the wishes of vast millions of men for whose benefit it is proposed to be made ? The reply must be in the negative . The time has nearly come when all Indian questions must be solved by Indians . '' Sengupta , Nitish <P> The British Indian Association was established on 31 October 1851 . Its formation was a major event of 19th - century India . Its establishment meant Indians had come together and could no longer be ignored . It developed enormous hopes amongst the Indians about their future . </P> <P> The first committee of the association was composed of : Raja Radhakanta Deb -- President , Raja Kalikrishna Deb -- Vice-President , Debendranath Tagore -- secretary , Digambar Mitra -- Asst Secretary , members -- Raja Staya Saran Ghosal , Harakumar Tagore , Prasanna Coomar Tagore , Ramanath Tagore , Jay Krishna Mukerjee , Asutosh Deb , Harimohan Sen , Ramgopal Ghosh , Umesh Chandra Dutta ( Rambagan ) , Krishna Kishore Ghosh , Jagadananda Mukhopadhyay , Peary Chand Mitra , and Sambhunath Pandit . </P> <P> Most of the early leaders of the British Indian Association were conservatives by tradition and temperament , although there were some progressive like Ramgopal Ghosh and Peary Chand Mitra . </P> <P> It was formed by the amalgamation of the Landholders ' Society and the Bengal British India Society . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Landholders ' Society </Li> <Li> 2 British India Society </Li> <Li> 3 Objectives and extent of British Indian Association </Li> <Li> 4 Criticism </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Landholders ' Society ( edit ) </H2> It gave to the people the first lesson in the art of fighting constitutionally for their rights , and taught them manfully to assert their claims and give expression to their opinions . Ostensibly , it advocated the rights of zamindars , but as their rights were intimately bound up with those of the ryots , the one can not be separated from the other . Mitra , Rajendra Lal <P> The Zamindari Association , which was later renamed Landholders ' Society , was established in 1838 by Dwarkanath Tagore , Prasanna Kumar Tagore , Radhakanta Deb , Ramkamal Sen and Bhabani Charan Mitra . </P> <P> It has been described as `` the first organisation of Bengal with distinct political object . '' The society virtually became defunct after the death of Dwarkanath Tagore . </P> <H2> British India Society ( edit ) </H2> <P> The British India Society was set up in 1839 in England primarily as a result of the efforts of William Adam , who had come to India and befriended Ram Mohan Roy . On his return to England he took up India 's cause . Others involved were George Thompson , William Ednis , and Major General Briggs . They organised meetings and enlightened people about conditions in India . In 1841 , it started publishing a newspaper named British Indian Advocate , edited by Professor William Adam </P> <P> In 1842 , Dwarkanath Tagore went to England , accompanied by Chandramohan Chatterjee and Paramananda Maitra , . It was the second visit abroad by educated Indians and the first since that of Ram Mohan Roy . Dwarkanath Tagore returned from England with George Thompson . His oratory charmed everybody and drew in Young Bengal members such as Ramgopal Ghosh , Tarachand Chakrabarti and Peary Chand Mitra . </P> <P> As a result of the efforts of George Thompson the Bengal British India Society was founded on 20 April 1843 . The object of the society was to secure the welfare , and advance the interests of all classes , but it would `` adopt and recommend such measures only as are consistent with pure loyalty to the person and government of the reigning sovereign of the British dominions . '' </P> <P> Its first executive committee consisted of four Europeans and eleven Indians with George Thompson as President , GF Remfry and Ramgopal Ghosh as Vice-Presidents , Peary Chand Mitra as Secretary . The members on the committee were Tarachand Chakrabarti , Dakshinaranjan Mukherjee , Brojonath Dhar , Krishna Mohan Banerjee , Hari Mohan , Govind Chandra Sen , Chandra Sekhar Deb , Shyama Charan Sen and Satkari Datta . There were people like Ramtanu Lahiri , also associated in some way . </P> <P> In 1849 , John Elliot Drinkwater Bethune prepared drafts of certain legislative efforts aimed at bringing the British - born subjects of the crown under the jurisdiction of the British East India Company , but the Europeans named these bills the Black Acts and opposed them tooth and nail . This opposition led Indians to think that their fortunes were not linked to those of the Europeans and that they needed associations of Indians to take care of their interests . Moreover , some changes were anticipated with the possible termination of the Company 's charter . Ramgopal Ghosh and Digamber Mitra played a particularly significant role in the formation of the British Indian Society . </P> <H2> Objectives and extent of British Indian Association ( edit ) </H2>

the TCAs ' metabolism , leading to increases in their blood concentrations and accompanying toxicity . Drugs that prolong the QT interval including antiarrhythmics such as quinidine , the antihistamines astemizole and terfenadine , and some antipsychotics may increase the chance of ventricular dysrhythmias . TCAs may enhance the response to alcohol and the effects of barbiturates and other CNS depressants . Side effects may also be enhanced by other drugs that have antimuscarinic properties . </P> <H2> Pharmacology ( edit ) </H2> <P> The majority of the TCAs act primarily as SNRIs by blocking the serotonin transporter ( SERT ) and the norepinephrine transporter ( NET ) , respectively , which results in an elevation of the synaptic concentrations of these neurotransmitters , and therefore an enhancement of neurotransmission . Notably , with the sole exception of amineptine , the TCAs have negligible affinity for the dopamine transporter ( DAT ) , and therefore have no efficacy as dopamine reuptake inhibitors ( DRIs ) . Both serotonin and norepinephrine have been highly implicated in depression and anxiety , and it has been shown that facilitation of their activity has beneficial effects on these mental disorders . </P> <P> In addition to their reuptake inhibition , many TCAs also have high affinity as antagonists at the 5 - HT ( 5 - HT and 5 - HT ) , 5 - HT , 5 - HT , α - adrenergic , and NMDA receptors , and as agonists at the sigma receptors ( σ and σ ) , some of which may contribute to their therapeutic efficacy , as well as their side effects . The TCAs also have varying but typically high affinity for antagonising the H and H histamine receptors , as well as the muscarinic acetylcholine receptors . As a result , they also act as potent antihistamines and anticholinergics . These properties are often beneficial in antidepressants , especially with comorbid anxiety , as it provides a sedative effect . </P> <P> Most , if not all , of the TCAs also potently inhibit sodium channels and L - type calcium channels , and therefore act as sodium channel blockers and calcium channel blockers , respectively . The former property is responsible for the high mortality rate upon overdose seen with the TCAs via cardiotoxicity . It may also be involved in their efficacy as analgesics , however . </P> <H3> Binding profiles ( edit ) </H3> See also : Tetracyclic antidepressant § Binding profiles <P> The binding profiles of various TCAs and some metabolites in terms of their affinities ( K , nM ) for various receptors and transporters are as follows : </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th> Compound </Th> <Th> SERT </Th> <Th> NET </Th> <Th> DAT </Th> <Th> 5 - HT </Th> <Th> 5 - HT </Th> <Th> 5 - HT </Th> <Th> 5 - HT </Th> <Th> 5 - HT </Th> <Th> α </Th> <Th> α </Th> <Th> </Th> <Th> </Th> <Th> </Th> <Th> mACh </Th> <Th> σ </Th> <Th> σ </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Amineptine </Td> <Td> > 100,000 </Td> <Td> 10,000 </Td> <Td> 1,000 -- 1,400 </Td> <Td> > 100,000 </Td> <Td> 74,000 </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> > 100,000 </Td> <Td> > 100,000 </Td> <Td> > 100,000 </Td> <Td> ≥ 13,000 </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> > 100,000 </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> ND </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Amitriptyline </Td> <Td> 2.8 -- 4.3 </Td> <Td> 19 -- 35 </Td> <Td> 3,250 </Td> <Td> ≥ 450 </Td> <Td> 18 -- 23 </Td> <Td> 4.0 </Td> <Td> 65 -- 141 </Td> <Td> 93 -- 123 </Td> <Td> 4.4 -- 24 </Td> <Td> 114 -- 690 </Td> <Td> 196 -- 1,460 </Td> <Td> 0.5 -- 1.1 </Td> <Td> 66 </Td> <Td> 9.6 </Td> <Td> 300 </Td> <Td> ND </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Amoxapine </Td> <Td> 58 </Td> <Td> 16 </Td> <Td> 4,310 </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> 0.5 </Td> <Td> 2.0 </Td> <Td> 6.0 -- 50 </Td> <Td> 41 </Td> <Td> 50 </Td> <Td> 2,600 </Td> <Td> 3.6 -- 160 </Td> <Td> 7.9 -- 25 </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> 1,000 </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> ND </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Butriptyline </Td> <Td> ≥ 1,360 </Td> <Td> 5,100 </Td> <Td> 3,940 </Td> <Td> 7,000 </Td> <Td> 380 </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> 570 </Td> <Td> 4,800 </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> 1.1 </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> 35 </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> ND </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Clomipramine </Td> <Td> 0.14 -- 0.28 </Td> <Td> 38 -- 54 </Td> <Td> ≥ 2,190 </Td> <Td> ≥ 7,000 </Td> <Td> 27 -- 36 </Td> <Td> 65 </Td> <Td> 54 </Td> <Td> 127 </Td> <Td> 3.2 -- 38 </Td> <Td> ≥ 535 </Td> <Td> 78 -- 190 </Td> <Td> 13 -- 31 </Td> <Td> 209 </Td> <Td> 37 </Td> <Td> 546 </Td> <Td> ND </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Desipramine </Td> <Td> 18 -- 163 </Td> <Td> 0.63 -- 3.5 </Td> <Td> 3,190 </Td> <Td> ≥ 6,400 </Td> <Td> 115 -- 350 </Td> <Td> 244 -- 748 </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> > 1,000 </Td> <Td> 23 -- 130 </Td> <Td> ≥ 1,379 </Td> <Td> 3,400 </Td> <Td> 60 -- 110 </Td> <Td> 1,550 </Td> <Td> 66 -- 198 </Td> <Td> ≥ 1,990 </Td> <Td> ≥ 1,610 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Dibenzepin </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> > 10,000 </Td> <Td> > 10,000 </Td> <Td> ≥ 1,500 </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> > 10,000 </Td> <Td> > 10,000 </Td> <Td> > 10,000 </Td> <Td> 23 </Td> <Td> 1,950 </Td> <Td> 1,750 </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> ND </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Dosulepin </Td> <Td> 8.6 -- 78 </Td> <Td> 46 -- 70 </Td> <Td> 5,310 </Td> <Td> 4,000 </Td> <Td> 152 </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> 419 </Td> <Td> 2,400 </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> 3.6 -- 4.0 </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> 25 -- 26 </Td> <Td> ND </Td> <Td> ND </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Doxepin </Td> <Td> 68 --

is commonly said that three things be favoured in Law , Life , Liberty , Dower . '' At common law , dower was closely guarded as a means by which the widow and orphan of a deceased landowner could keep their real property . </P> <P> Garry Wills has argued that Jefferson did not take the phrase from Locke and that it was indeed meant to be a standard by which governments should be judged . Wills suggests Adam Ferguson as a good guide to what Jefferson had in mind : </P> <P> If , in reality , courage and a heart devoted to the good of mankind are the constituents of human felicity , the kindness which is done infers a happiness in the person from whom it proceeds , not in him on whom it is bestowed ; and the greatest good which men possessed of fortitude and generosity can procure to their fellow creatures is a participation of this happy character . If this be the good of the individual , it is likewise that of mankind ; and virtue no longer imposes a task by which we are obliged to bestow upon others that good from which we ourselves refrain ; but supposes , in the highest degree , as possessed by ourselves , that state of felicity which we are required to promote in the world . </P> -- Adam Ferguson , An Essay on the History of Civil Society <P> The 17th - century cleric and philosopher Richard Cumberland wrote that promoting the well - being of our fellow humans is essential to the `` pursuit of our own happiness '' . Locke never associated natural rights with happiness , but his philosophical opponent Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz made such an association in the introduction to his Codex Iuris Gentium . William Wollaston 's The Religion of Nature Delineated describes the `` truest definition '' of `` natural religion '' as being `` The pursuit of happiness by the practice of reason and truth '' . An English translation of Jean - Jacques Burlamaqui 's Principles of Natural and Politic Law prepared in 1763 extolled the `` noble pursuit '' of `` true and solid happiness '' in the opening chapter discussing natural rights . Historian Jack Rakove posits Burlamaqui as the inspiration for Jefferson 's phrase . </P> <H2> Comparable mottos worldwide ( edit ) </H2> <P> Other tripartite mottos include `` liberté , égalité , fraternité '' ( liberty , equality , fraternity ) in France ; `` Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit '' ( unity , justice and liberty ) in Germany and `` peace , order , and good government '' in Canada . It is also similar to a line in the Canadian Charter of Rights : `` life , liberty , security of the person '' ( this line was also in the older Canadian Bill of rights , which added `` enjoyment of property '' to the list ) . </P> <P> The phrase can also be found in Chapter III , Article 13 of the 1947 Constitution of Japan , and in President Ho Chi Minh 's 1945 declaration of independence of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam . An alternative phrase `` life , liberty , and property '' , is found in the Declaration of Colonial Rights , a resolution of the First Continental Congress . The Fifth Amendment and Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution declare that governments can not deprive any person of `` life , liberty , or property '' without due process of law . Also , Article 3 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights reads , `` Everyone has the right to life , liberty , and security of person '' . </P> <H2> References ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> Jump up ^ `` The Declaration of Independence : Rough Draft '' .

Albatross ( metaphor ) - wikipedia <H1> Albatross ( metaphor ) </H1> Jump to : navigation , search <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> Look up albatross around one 's neck in Wiktionary , the free dictionary . </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> This article may contain indiscriminate , excessive , or irrelevant examples . Please improve the article by adding more descriptive text and removing less pertinent examples . See Wikipedia 's guide to writing better articles for further suggestions . ( February 2017 ) </Td> </Tr> </Table> <P> The word albatross is sometimes used metaphorically to mean a psychological burden that feels like a curse . </P> <P> It is an allusion to Samuel Taylor Coleridge 's poem The Rime of the Ancient Mariner ( 1798 ) . In the poem , an albatross starts to follow a ship -- being followed by an albatross was generally considered a sign of good luck . However , the titular mariner shoots the albatross with a crossbow , which is regarded as an act that will curse the ship ( which indeed suffers terrible mishaps ) . Even when they are too thirsty to speak , the ship 's crew let the mariner know through their glances that they blame his action for the curse . The albatross is then literally hung around the mariner 's neck by the crew to symbolize his guilt in killing the bird . Thus , the albatross can be both an omen of good or bad luck , as well as a metaphor for a burden to be carried as penance . </P> <P> The symbolism used in the Coleridge poem is its highlight . For example : </P> <P> Ah ! well a-day ! what evil looks Had I from old and young ! Instead of the cross , the Albatross About my neck was hung . </P> <P> This sense is catalogued in the Oxford English Dictionary from 1936 and 1955 , but it seems only to have entered general usage in the 1960s , or possibly as early as 1959 . </P> <P> Also , the word albatross is used in Letter II , Volume One of Mary Shelley 's Frankenstein , in which Robert Walton is speaking to his sister and states , `` ... but I shall kill no albatross ... '' , an allusion quite clearly referring to the poem by her close acquaintance , Coleridge . The novel was first published in 1818 , long before the term was introduced into the Oxford Dictionary . </P> <P> Charles Baudelaire 's collection of poems Les Fleurs du mal contains a poem entitled L'Albatros about men on ships who catch the albatrosses for sport . In the final stanza , he goes on to compare the poets to the birds -- exiled from the skies and then weighed down by their giant wings , till death . </P> <P> Finally , in Herman Melville 's Moby - Dick , there is a reference to Coleridge 's albatross which is extended to fit the narrative 's focus on the symbolic connotations of whiteness . </P> <P> See The Rime of the Ancient Mariner in popular culture . Even in the poem Snake by D.H. Lawrence he mentions the killing of Albatross by the mariner . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Film </Li> <Li> 2 Music <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Musical </Li> <Li> 2.2 Songs </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Television </Li> <Li> 4 Books </Li> <Li> 5 Video games </Li> <Li> 6 References </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Film ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> In the 1939 film `` The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes '' starring Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce , Professor Moriarty George Zucco baits Holmes by mailing him a drawing of a man with an albatross hung around his neck . </Li> <Li> In the 1940 film The Sea Hawk starring Errol Flynn , Albatross is the name of Captain Thorpe 's pirate ship . </Li> <Li> In the 1979 film The Fog by John Carpenter , a radio - station promo is possessed by ghostly forces to speak out and the word albatross is used to tell of the curse on Antonio Bay . </Li> <Li> In the 1996 Ridley Scott film White Squall , a fictionalized account of the Ocean Academy 's ship Albatross , the ship 's captain Christopher Sheldon makes mention of the albatross being a very good omen which `` embodied the spirits of lost sailors '' . `` Only bad luck if you kill one , '' he added . </Li> <Li> In the 2003 film Master and Commander : The Far Side of the World , as the wind picks up and the ship finally breaks out of the doldrums , an albatross is spotted following the ship . When an attempt is made to shoot the bird , the ship 's doctor is shot instead . </Li> <Li> In the 2005 Joss Whedon film Serenity , Malcolm Reynolds , the captain of Serenity defends the notion that River Tam is an albatross to the crew and later to the Operative . He says that the albatross was good luck until `` some idiot killed it '' . When Malcolm is speaking , he then adds to Inara , `` Yes , I 've read a poem . Try not to faint '' in a reference to the Coleridge poem . At the end of the film , he calls River `` Little Albatross '' . </Li> <Li> The 2011 film Albatross , by Niall MacCormick . </Li> <Li> In the 2014 film Against the Sun , Gene shoots an albatross , which they eat . Chief Dixon is notably upset about this , saying , `` I ca n't believe you shot an albatross . '' </Li> </Ul> <H2> Music ( edit ) </H2> <P> In music journalism , the term albatross is sometimes used metaphorically to describe the mixed blessing and curse of a song that becomes so popular it overshadows the rest

harsher climatic conditions of the steppes . Other species of Equus are adapted to a variety of intermediate conditions . </P> <P> The early ancestors of the modern horse walked on several spread - out toes , an accommodation to life spent walking on the soft , moist grounds of primeval forests . As grass species began to appear and flourish , the equids ' diets shifted from foliage to grasses , leading to larger and more durable teeth . At the same time , as the steppes began to appear , the horse 's predecessors needed to be capable of greater speeds to outrun predators . This was attained through the lengthening of limbs and the lifting of some toes from the ground in such a way that the weight of the body was gradually placed on one of the longest toes , the third . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History of research </Li> <Li> 2 Before odd - toed ungulates <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Phenacodontidae </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Eocene and Oligocene : early equids <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Eohippus </Li> <Li> 3.2 Orohippus </Li> <Li> 3.3 Epihippus </Li> <Li> 3.4 Mesohippus </Li> <Li> 3.5 Miohippus </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Miocene and Pliocene : true equines <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Kalobatippus </Li> <Li> 4.2 Parahippus </Li> <Li> 4.3 Merychippus </Li> <Li> 4.4 Hipparion </Li> <Li> 4.5 Pliohippus </Li> <Li> 4.6 Dinohippus </Li> <Li> 4.7 Plesippus </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 Modern horses <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Equus </Li> <Li> 5.2 Genome sequencing </Li> <Li> 5.3 Pleistocene extinctions </Li> <Li> 5.4 Return to the Americas </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 Details <Ul> <Li> 6.1 Toes </Li> <Li> 6.2 Teeth </Li> <Li> 6.3 Coat color </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 7 See also </Li> <Li> 8 Further reading </Li> <Li> 9 References </Li> <Li> 10 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History of research ( edit ) </H2> Extinct equids restored to scale . Left to right : Mesohippus , Neohipparion , Eohippus , Equus scotti and Hypohippus . <P> Wild horses were known since prehistory from central Asia to Europe , with domestic horses and other equids being distributed more widely in the Old World , but no horses or equids of any type were found in the New World when European explorers reached the Americas . When the Spanish colonists brought domestic horses from Europe , beginning in 1493 , escaped horses quickly established large feral herds . In the 1760s , the early naturalist Buffon suggested this was an indication of inferiority of the New World fauna , but later reconsidered this idea . William Clark 's 1807 expedition to Big Bone Lick found `` leg and foot bones of the Horses '' , which were included with other fossils sent to Thomas Jefferson and evaluated by the anatomist Caspar Wistar , but neither commented on the significance of this find . </P> <P> The first Old World equid fossil was found in the gypsum quarries in Montmartre , Paris , in the 1820s . The tooth was sent to the Paris Conservatory , where it was identified by Georges Cuvier , who identified it as a browsing equine related to the tapir . His sketch of the entire animal matched later skeletons found at the site . </P> <P> During the Beagle survey expedition , the young naturalist Charles Darwin had remarkable success with fossil hunting in Patagonia . On 10 October 1833 , at Santa Fe , Argentina , he was `` filled with astonishment '' when he found a horse 's tooth in the same stratum as fossil giant armadillos , and wondered if it might have been washed down from a later layer , but concluded this was `` not very probable '' . After the expedition returned in 1836 , the anatomist Richard Owen confirmed the tooth was from an extinct species , which he subsequently named Equus curvidens , and remarked , `` This evidence of the former existence of a genus , which , as regards South America , had become extinct , and has a second time been introduced into that Continent , is not one of the least interesting fruits of Mr. Darwin 's palæontological discoveries . '' </P> <P> In 1848 , a study On the fossil horses of America by Joseph Leidy systematically examined Pleistocene horse fossils from various collections , including that of the Academy of Natural Sciences , and concluded at least two ancient horse species had existed in North America : Equus curvidens and another , which he named Equus americanus . A decade later , however , he found the latter name had already been taken and renamed it Equus complicatus . In the same year , he visited Europe and was introduced by Owen to Darwin . </P> Restoration of Eurohippus parvulus , a mid - to late Eocene equid of Europe ( Museum für Naturkunde , Berlin ) <P> The original sequence of species believed to have evolved into the horse was based on fossils discovered in North America in the 1870s by paleontologist Othniel Charles Marsh . The sequence , from Eohippus to the modern horse ( Equus ) , was popularized by Thomas Huxley and became one of the most widely known examples of a clear evolutionary progression . The horse 's evolutionary lineage became a common feature of biology textbooks , and the sequence of transitional fossils was assembled by the American Museum of Natural History into an exhibit that emphasized the gradual , `` straight - line '' evolution of the horse . </P> <P> Since then , as the number of equid fossils has increased , the actual evolutionary progression from Eohippus to Equus has been discovered to be much more complex and multibranched than was initially supposed . The straight , direct progression from the former to the latter has been replaced by a more elaborate model with numerous branches in different directions , of which the modern horse is only one of many . George Gaylord Simpson in 1951 first recognized

For the illustrator who narrates the story , the genuine article proves all too useless for his commercial purposes . The story portrays the unfortunate victims of a society in which reality and representation are closely intertwined in ways that make art a difficult project to untangle the two . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Plot summary </Li> <Li> 2 Major themes </Li> <Li> 3 Critical evaluation </Li> <Li> 4 References </Li> <Li> 5 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Plot summary ( edit ) </H2> <P> The narrator , an unnamed illustrator and aspiring painter , hires a faded genteel couple , the Monarchs , as models , after they have lost most of their money and must find some line of work . They are the `` real thing '' in that they perfectly represent the aristocratic type , but they prove inflexible for the painter 's work . He comes to rely much more on two lower - class subjects who are nevertheless more capable , Oronte , an Italian , and Miss Churm , a lower - class Englishwoman . </P> <P> The illustrator finally has to get rid of the Monarchs , especially after his friend and fellow artist Jack Hawley criticizes the work in which the Monarchs are represented . Hawley says that the pair has hurt the narrator 's art , perhaps permanently . In the final line of the story the narrator says he is `` content to have paid the price -- for the memory . '' </P> <H2> Major themes ( edit ) </H2> <P> James plays with the exact meaning of `` the real thing '' throughout the story 's plot , which was suggested to him by George du Maurier . The Monarchs may be the real thing when it comes to country - house visits and drawing - room conversation , but Oronte and Miss Churm are just as much the genuine article for professional modeling . Late in the story the Monarchs desperately try to keep their jobs by actually becoming servants to the narrator , Miss Churm , and Oronte , in a superb example of Jamesian chiasmus . </P> <P> Commentators have noted a bit of fantasy wish - fulfillment in the tale . The painter is hired to illustrate a series of novels by `` the rarest of the novelists -- who , long neglected by the multitudinous vulgar and dearly prized by the attentive ( ... ) had had the happy fortune of seeing , late in life , the dawn and then the full light of a higher criticism -- an estimate in which , on the part of the public , there was something really of expiation . '' James 's own most laudatory criticism would come only posthumously . </P> <H2> Critical evaluation ( edit ) </H2> <P> Critics have generally praised what one of them called `` one of James neatest tales ... important as poignant fiction , aesthetic parable , antiaristocratic satire , and sunken autobiography . '' That James was able to fit so complex a subject into under ten thousand words was a genuine triumph of his by now completely mature technique . </P> <P> James does not make the parable into an arid demonstration of a debating point . The characters all come alive as fully individualized creations . The incompetent Monarchs are sympathetic , and the narrator himself is memorable for his increasingly desperate but ultimately futile attempts to help them . </P> <H2> References ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> Jump up ^ Johanningsmeier , Charles . `` How Real American Readers Originally Experienced James 's ' The Real Thing .

Santa Claus - wikipedia <H1> Santa Claus </H1> Jump to : navigation , search `` Santa '' redirects here . For other uses , see Santa ( disambiguation ) . This article is about the legendary character . For other uses , see Santa Claus ( disambiguation ) . 1881 illustration by Thomas Nast who , along with Clement Clarke Moore 's poem A Visit from St. Nicholas , helped to create the modern image of Santa Claus The modern portrayal of Santa Claus frequently depicts him listening to children 's Christmas wishes . <P> Santa Claus , also known as Saint Nicholas , Kris Kringle , Father Christmas , or simply Santa , is a legendary figure originating in Western Christian culture who is said to bring gifts to the homes of well - behaved ( `` good '' or `` nice '' ) children on Christmas Eve ( 24 December ) and the early morning hours of Christmas Day ( 25 December ) . The modern Santa Claus grew out of traditions surrounding the historical Saint Nicholas ( a fourth - century Greek bishop and gift - giver of Myra ) , the British figure of Father Christmas and the Dutch figure of Sinterklaas ( himself also based on Saint Nicholas ) . Some maintain Santa Claus also absorbed elements of the Germanic god Wodan , who was associated with the pagan midwinter event of Yule and led the Wild Hunt , a ghostly procession through the sky . </P> <P> Santa Claus is generally depicted as a portly , joyous , white - bearded man -- sometimes with spectacles -- wearing a red coat with white fur collar and cuffs , white - fur - cuffed red trousers , a red hat with white fur and black leather belt and boots and who carries a bag full of gifts for children . This image became popular in the United States and Canada in the 19th century due to the significant influence of the 1823 poem `` A Visit from St. Nicholas '' and of caricaturist and political cartoonist Thomas Nast . This image has been maintained and reinforced through song , radio , television , children 's books , films , and advertising . </P> <P> Santa Claus is said to make lists of children throughout the world , categorizing them according to their behavior ( `` good '' and `` bad '' , or `` naughty '' and `` nice '' ) and to deliver presents , including toys , and candy to all of the well - behaved children in the world , and coal to all the misbehaved children , on the single night of Christmas Eve . He accomplishes this feat with the aid of his elves , who make the toys in his workshop at the North Pole , and his flying reindeer , who pull his sleigh . He is commonly portrayed as living at the North Pole , and often laughing in a way that sounds like `` ho ho ho '' . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Predecessor figures <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Saint Nicholas </Li> <Li> 1.2 Father Christmas </Li> <Li> 1.3 Dutch , Belgian and Swiss folklore </Li> <Li> 1.4 Germanic paganism , Wodan , and Christianization </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 History <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Origins </Li> <Li> 2.2 19th century </Li> <Li> 2.3 20th century </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 In popular culture </Li> <Li> 4 Traditions and rituals <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Chimney tradition </Li> <Li> 4.2 Christmas Eve rituals </Li> <Li> 4.3 Ho , ho , ho </Li> <Li> 4.4 Home </Li> <Li> 4.5 Parades , department stores , and shopping malls </Li> <Li> 4.6 Letter writing to Santa </Li> <Li> 4.7 Santa tracking , Santa websites and email to and from Santa </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 Criticism <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Calvinist and Puritan opposition </Li> <Li> 5.2 Opposition under state atheism </Li> <Li> 5.3 Symbol of commercialism </Li> <Li> 5.4 Controversy about deceiving children </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 See also <Ul> <Li> 6.1 Related figures in folklore </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 7 References </Li> <Li> 8 Further reading </Li> <Li> 9 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Predecessor figures </H2> <H3> Saint Nicholas </H3> A 13th - century depiction of St. Nicholas from Saint Catherine 's Monastery , Sinai Main article : Saint Nicholas <P> Saint Nicholas of Myra was a 4th - century Greek Christian bishop of Myra ( now Demre ) in Lycia , a province of the Byzantine Empire , now in Turkey . Nicholas was famous for his generous gifts to the poor , in particular presenting the three impoverished daughters of a pious Christian with dowries so that they would not have to become prostitutes . He was very religious from an early age and devoted his life entirely to Christianity . In continental Europe ( more precisely the Netherlands , Belgium , Austria , the Czech Republic and Germany ) he is usually portrayed as a bearded bishop in canonical robes . </P> <P> The remains of Saint Nicholas are in Italy . In 1087 , the Italian city of Bari mounted an expedition to locate the tomb of the Saint . The reliquary of St. Nicholas was conquered by Italian sailors and his relics were taken to Bari where they are kept to this day . A basilica was constructed the same year to store the loot and the area became a pilgrimage site for the devout . Sailors from Bari collected just half of Nicholas ' skeleton , leaving all the minor fragments in the grave . These were collected by Venetian sailors during the First Crusade and taken to Venice , where a church to St. Nicholas , the patron of sailors , was built on the San Nicolò al Lido . This tradition was confirmed in two important scientific investigations of the relics in Bari and Venice , which revealed that the relics in the two Italian cities belong to the same skeleton . Saint Nicholas was later

Short - term antibiotics ( azithromycin for 3 -- 5 days ) are as effective as long - term treatment ( erythromycin 10 -- 14 days ) in eliminating B. pertussis with fewer and less severe side effects . </P> <P> People with pertussis are infectious from the beginning of the catarrhal stage ( a runny nose , sneezing , low - grade fever , symptoms of the common cold ) through the third week after the onset of paroxysms ( multiple , rapid coughs ) or until 5 days after the start of effective antimicrobial treatment . </P> <P> Effective treatments of the cough associated with this condition have not been developed . </P> <H2> Prognosis ( edit ) </H2> Disability - adjusted life year for pertussis per 100,000 inhabitants as of 2004 .

Most healthy older children and adults fully recover , but those with comorbid conditions have a higher risk of morbidity and mortality . </P> <P> Infection in newborns is particularly severe . Pertussis is fatal in an estimated 1.6 % of hospitalized US infants under one year of age . First - year infants are also more likely to develop complications , such as : pneumonia ( 20 % ) , encephalopathy ( 0.3 % ) , seizures ( 1 % ) , failure to thrive , and death ( 1 % ) -- perhaps due to the ability of the bacterium to suppress the immune system . Pertussis can cause severe paroxysm - induced cerebral hypoxia , and 50 % of infants admitted to hospital suffer apneas . Reported fatalities from pertussis in infants increased substantially from 1990 to 2010 . </P> <H2> Epidemiology ( edit ) </H2> Whooping cough deaths per million persons in 2012 0 -- 0 1 -- 1 2 -- 3 4 -- 4 5 -- 5 6 -- 32 33 -- 38 39 -- 44 45 -- 79 <P> Worldwide , whooping cough affects around 16 million people yearly . One estimate for 2013 stated it resulted in about 61,000 deaths -- down from 138,000 deaths in 1990 . Another estimated 195,000 child deaths yearly from the disease worldwide . This is despite generally high coverage with the DTP and DTaP vaccines . Pertussis is one of the leading causes of vaccine - preventable deaths worldwide . About 90 % of all cases occur in developing countries . </P> <P> Before vaccines , an average of 178,171 cases was reported in the U.S. , with peaks reported every two to five years ; more than 93 % of reported cases occurred in children under 10 years of age . The actual incidence was likely much higher . After vaccinations were introduced in the 1940s , pertussis incidence fell dramatically to approximately 1,000 by 1976 . Incidence rates have increased since 1980 . In 2015 , rates in the United States were 20,762 people . </P> <P> Pertussis is the only vaccine - preventable disease that is associated with increasing deaths in the U.S. The number of deaths increased from four in 1996 to 17 in 2001 , almost all of which were infants under one year . In Canada , the number of pertussis infections has varied between 2,000 and 10,000 reported cases each year over the last ten years , and it is the most common vaccine - preventable illness in Toronto . </P> <P> In 2009 Australia reported an average of 10,000 cases a year , and the number of cases had increased . In the U.S. pertussis in adults has increased significantly since about 2004 . </P> <H3> US outbreaks ( edit ) </H3> An epidemiologist tests blood samples for pertussis during a 2010 outbreak . <P> In 2010 ten infants in California died , and health authorities declared an epidemic encompassing 9,120 cases . They found that doctors had failed to correctly diagnose the infants ' condition during several visits . Statistical analysis identified significant overlap in communities with a cluster of nonmedical child exemptions and cases . The number of exemptions varied widely among communities , but tended to be highly clustered . In some schools , more than three - fourths of parents filed for vaccination exemptions . The data suggest vaccine refusal based on nonmedical reasons and personal belief exacerbated the outbreak . Other factors included reduced duration of the current vaccine and that most vaccinated adults and older children had not received a booster shot . </P> <P> In April and May 2012 pertussis was declared to be at epidemic levels in Washington , with 3,308 cases . In December 2012 Vermont declared an epidemic of 522 cases . Wisconsin had the highest incidence rate , with 3,877 cases , although it did not make an official epidemic declaration . </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Discovery ( edit ) </H3> <P> B. pertussis was discovered in 1906 by Jules Bordet and Octave Gengou , who also developed the first serology and vaccine . Efforts to develop an inactivated whole - cell vaccine began soon after B. pertussis was cultured that year . In the 1920s , Louis W. Sauer developed a weak vaccine for whooping cough at Evanston Hospital ( Evanston , IL ) . In 1925 Danish physician Thorvald Madsen was the first to test a whole - cell vaccine on a wide scale . Madsen used the vaccine to control outbreaks in the Faroe Islands in the North Sea . </P> <H3> Vaccine ( edit ) </H3> <P> In 1932 an outbreak of whooping cough hit Atlanta , Georgia , prompting pediatrician Leila Denmark to begin her study of the disease .

Senate is elected by the majority of the members of the New York State Senate . The position usually coincides with the title of Temporary President of the State Senate , who presides over the session of the State Senate if the Lieutenant Governor of New York ( who is ex officio President of the State Senate ) is absent . The Temporary President of the State Senate becomes Acting Lieutenant Governor for the remainder of the unexpired term in case of a vacancy in the office of lieutenant governor . In case of a vacancy in the offices of both the governor and lieutenant governor at the same time , the Temporary President of the State Senate becomes Acting Governor . If the double vacancy occurs until three months before the mid-term state elections , a special election for Governor of New York and Lieutenant Governor is held . If the double vacancy occurs later , the Temporary President of the State Senate acts as governor until the end of the unexpired term . The Temporary President of the State Senate retains both his majority leadership and his seat in the State Senate while acting as lieutenant governor or governor . </P> <P> There was a lengthy dispute over the leadership of the Senate during June and July 2009 . On June 8 , 2009 , Democrats Hiram Monserrate and Pedro Espada , Jr. , joined the 30 Republican members of the State Senate to attempt to issue a motion to replace current Majority Leader Malcolm Smith with Minority Leader Dean Skelos . Following the precedent of 1913 , the temporary presidency and the majority leadership would have been separated again under this scenario . Since the office of Lieutenant Governor fell vacant after Lt. Gov. David Paterson succeeded to the governorship upon Gov. Eliot Spitzer 's resignation , the majority leaders ( Bruno , Skelos and Smith ) have acted as lieutenant governors . The motions put forward on June 8 also sought to select Pedro Espada as Temporary President of the State Senate , which would have installed him as acting lieutenant governor . The Democrats have disputed the legitimacy of the motions put forward on June 8 . The New York State Senate has been providing a running update of the legal proceedings since June 11 , 2009 . The dispute ended July 9 , 2009 , when Senator Espada announced he would return to the Democratic caucus and take on the position of majority leader , while it was also announced that former majority leader Malcolm Smith had assumed the title of president pro tempore , and John Sampson would serve as Democratic conference leader with the understanding he would assume the presidency at an undetermined future date . Following the 2010 election and the Republican victory in the Senate , Senator Dean Skelos from Long Island served as both Temporary President and Majority Leader , but resigned in May 2015 in the midst of corruption charges . The current majority leader , or president , is John J. Flanagan . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History </Li> <Li> 2 Presidents pro tempore 1874 - 1938 </Li> <Li> 3 Majority Leaders since 1939 </Li> <Li> 4 Notes </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <P> The position of President pro tempore of the New York State Senate was created as a standing office by a constitutional amendment in 1873 . The President pro tempore was elected for the duration of the biennial senatorial term which comprised two sessions , the first in an even - numbered year , the other in the following odd - numbered year . </P> <P> Before this time , a President pro tempore was elected only in case of vacancy ( the President pro tem acting as lieutenant governor for the remainder of the term ) , or if the lieutenant governor was absent . In practice , this new arrangement transferred much power from the lieutenant governor to the President pro tempore , whose political position became comparable to that of the Speaker of the New York State Assembly . </P> <P> After the impeachment of Governor William Sulzer in October 1913 , Lt. Gov. Martin H. Glynn became governor , and President pro tempore Robert F. Wagner became acting lieutenant governor . At the time Wagner -- as acting lieutenant governor -- was considered to be President of the Senate and it was deemed necessary to elect another member as President pro tempore / Majority Leader , and John F. Murtaugh was chosen . </P> <P> The precedent of 1913 -- 14 caused some confusion after the death of Lt. Gov. Thomas W. Wallace in 1943 . It was unclear if the Majority Leader had to give up his post upon becoming acting lieutenant governor , and if such an acting lieutenant governor became President of the Senate for the remainder of the unexpired term . </P> <P> Traditionally , the positions of acting lieutenant governor and acting governor were considered to be tied to the post of Majority Leader . This means that if the Majority Leader resigns , or is ousted from office , or if the majority changes and a new Majority Leader is chosen , the offices of acting lieutenant governor or acting governor were transferred at the same time to the new Majority Leader . </P> <H2> Presidents pro tempore 1874 - 1938 ( edit ) </H2> <Table> <Tr> <Th> President pro tem </Th> <Th> Party </Th> <Th> Took office </Th> <Th> Left office </Th> <Th> Notes </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> William H.

Light propagating in a multi-mode fiber <P> The core of a conventional optical fiber is a cylinder of glass or plastic that runs along the fiber 's length . The core is surrounded by a medium with a lower index of refraction , typically a cladding of a different glass , or plastic . Light travelling in the core reflects from the core - cladding boundary due to total internal reflection , as long as the angle between the light and the boundary is less than the critical angle . As a result , the fiber transmits all rays that enter the fiber with a sufficiently small angle to the fiber 's axis . The limiting angle is called the acceptance angle , and the rays that are confined by the core / cladding boundary are called guided rays . </P> <P> The core is characterized by its diameter or cross-sectional area . In most cases the core 's cross-section should be circular , but the diameter is more rigorously defined as the average of the diameters of the smallest circle that can be circumscribed about the core - cladding boundary , and the largest circle that can be inscribed within the core - cladding boundary . This allows for deviations from circularity due to manufacturing variation . </P> <P> Another commonly quoted statistic for core size is the mode field diameter . This is the diameter at which the intensity of light in the fiber falls to some specified fraction of maximum ( usually 1 / e ≈ 13.5 % ) . For single - mode fiber , the mode field diameter is larger than the physical diameter of the core , because the light penetrates slightly into the cladding as an evanescent wave . </P> <P> The three most common core sizes are : </P> <Ul> <Li> 9 μm diameter ( single - mode ) </Li> <Li> 50 μm diameter ( multi-mode ) </Li> <Li> 62.5 μm diameter ( multi-mode ) </Li> </Ul> <H2> See also ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> Buffer ( optical fiber ) </Li> </Ul> <H2> References ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> Jump up ^ Insulation / circuits .

, while still learning his craft as a young teacher ( akin to Jonathan Turner ) . </P> <H3> Mr. Feeny ( edit ) </H3> <P> George Hamilton Feeny ( William Daniels ) Throughout the series , Feeny tries his best to guide young Cory , Shawn , and their friends as they encounter problems in their lives on their road to adulthood . He first appears on the show as their grade - school teacher . He eventually becomes their principal , and lastly college professor ( teaching such diverse courses as archaeology , English literature , and quantum physics ) . Cory mentions more than once that Feeny is the only teacher he has ever had since kindergarten . Later on in the show , Mr. Feeny becomes the mentor and idol of Eric Matthews . Feeny is a Boston native and enjoys gardening . He delivers the final line of Boy Meets World dialogue in the series finale , directed to an empty classroom just vacated by his beloved students : `` I love you all . Class dismissed . '' </P> <P> Mr. Feeny was once married to a woman named Lillian , who died before the series began . Although Feeny had dated another teacher named Elizabeth from Boston off - screen for 15 years , a conversation with Eric made him to realize that , despite that he and his romantic partner each believed that they are not married because of their careers ; they simply do not love each other . He later marries Dean Lila Bolander ( played by William Daniels ' real - life wife Bonnie Bartlett ; the duo similarly portrayed spouses on St. Elsewhere ) , whom he finds success after his relationship with Elizabeth and competition with Dean Bolander 's ex-husband Dr. Curtis Kincaid ( Francis X . McCarthy ) for her affection . </P> <P> He makes a brief cameo at the end of the Girl Meets World pilot episode as a figment of Cory 's imagination , telling him , `` Well done , Mr. Matthews '' , and Topanga likens Cory to him in a later episode . The character made two appearances in the second season , and appeared again in the third and final season . </P> <H3> Amy Matthews ( edit ) </H3> <P> Amy Matthews ( Betsy Randle ) is the wife of Alan Matthews and the mother of Eric , Cory , Morgan , and Joshua Matthews . During the earlier years of the show , Amy was a real estate agent and eventually became an art gallery worker toward the end of the show . </P> <P> Amy often plays counterpoint to Alan in giving their children discipline and guidance . In dealing with Eric , she always discourages `` babying '' him , whereas several episodes involving Cory see a much more gentle and motherly Amy . </P> <H3> Eric Matthews ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Eric Matthews ( Boy Meets World ) <P> Eric Randall Matthews ( Will Friedle ) is the elder brother of Cory , Morgan , and Joshua Matthews . He began the show as a suave , popular young man , who constantly went out on dates . He was originally portrayed as the stereotypical elder brother . Eric 's character changed mid-series from preppy elder brother to `` crazy , moronic brother '' . During the fourth season , Eric takes a year off from school when he does n't get into a college of his choice . </P> <P> Eric often plays off his hero and mentor , Mr. Feeny . Though Eric and Feeny are not originally seen as having a close relationship , the two develop a bond , that -- at least in Eric 's mind -- is one of love . It was even implied once that Eric likes to tell people ( such as Rachel ) that Feeny is his grandfather . This culminates at the end of the fifth season when Eric sings a rousing of `` To Sir , With Love '' at Cory 's high school graduation . Eric is also the creator of the `` Feeny call '' , and even makes a talking doll for Feeny to `` make the call '' , so Feeny will not miss him when he moves to New York with the others . </P> <P> Eric is actually highly intelligent , and Feeny mentions that Eric can get passing grades in his sleep ( in fact , he once did ) . He compares this to Cory who , though lacking Eric 's natural intelligence , makes up for it by being hard - working when he wants to be , and thus succeeds . Eric , on the other hand , is too lazy and immature to be anything but a ridiculous `` goof - off '' , to the annoyance of his family and Mr. Feeny , in addition lacking confidence to his own capability to succeed academically . In Girl Meets World , Cory mentions that Eric is the only person he knows who can do the impossible , and later Jack Hunter asks if he 's still an `` idiot genius '' . </P> <P> During the later years , storylines involving Eric became stranger and wackier , often bending the rules of reality itself , such as an episode where Eric continually tries to sneak up on Topanga by using many disguises and crazy situations . The change from a girl - crazy cool - conscious teenager ( the first half of the series ) to a scatter - brained odd - ball ( the second half of the series ) was a drastic change . Eric often provides comic relief in tough situations throughout the series . It is hinted that he is a fan of the raunchy animated comedy South Park , as he has made references to the program , by doing voice impressions of Cartman and other South Park characters on different occasions . </P> <P> On the

August ; 30 October / 9 November 1683 -- 25 October 1760 ) was King of Great Britain and Ireland , Duke of Brunswick - Lüneburg ( Hanover ) and Prince - elector of the Holy Roman Empire from 11 June 1727 ( O.S. ) until his death . </P> <P> George was the last British monarch born outside Great Britain : he was born and brought up in northern Germany . His grandmother , Sophia of Hanover , became second in line to the British throne after about fifty Catholics higher in line were excluded by the Act of Settlement 1701 and the Acts of Union 1707 , which restricted the succession to Protestants . After the deaths of Sophia and Anne , Queen of Great Britain , in 1714 , his father George I , Elector of Hanover , inherited the British throne . In the first years of his father 's reign as king , George was associated with opposition politicians , until they rejoined the governing party in 1720 . </P> <P> As king from 1727 , George exercised little control over British domestic policy , which was largely controlled by the Parliament of Great Britain . As elector , he spent twelve summers in Hanover , where he had more direct control over government policy . He had a difficult relationship with his eldest son , Frederick , who supported the parliamentary opposition . During the War of the Austrian Succession , George participated at the Battle of Dettingen in 1743 , and thus became the last British monarch to lead an army in battle . In 1745 , supporters of the Catholic claimant to the British throne , James Francis Edward Stuart ( `` The Old Pretender '' ) , led by James 's son Charles Edward Stuart ( `` The Young Pretender '' or `` Bonnie Prince Charlie '' ) , attempted and failed to depose George in the last of the Jacobite rebellions . Frederick died unexpectedly in 1751 , nine years before his father , and so George II was ultimately succeeded by his grandson , George III . </P> <P> For two centuries after George II 's death , history tended to view him with disdain , concentrating on his mistresses , short temper and boorishness . Since then , most scholars have reassessed his legacy and conclude that he held and exercised influence in foreign policy and military appointments . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Early life </Li> <Li> 2 Marriage </Li> <Li> 3 Prince of Wales <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Quarrel with the king </Li> <Li> 3.2 Political opposition </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Early reign </Li> <Li> 5 Family problems </Li> <Li> 6 War and rebellion </Li> <Li> 7 Later life <Ul> <Li> 7.1 Seven Years ' War </Li> <Li> 7.2 Death </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 8 Legacy </Li> <Li> 9 Titles , styles and arms <Ul> <Li> 9.1 Titles and styles </Li> <Li> 9.2 Arms </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 10 Issue </Li> <Li> 11 Ancestry </Li> <Li> 12 Notes </Li> <Li> 13 Sources </Li> <Li> 14 Bibliography </Li> <Li> 15 Further reading </Li> <Li> 16 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Early life ( edit ) </H2> George as a young boy with his mother , Sophia Dorothea of Celle , and his sister , Sophia Dorothea of Hanover <P> George was born in the city of Hanover in Germany , and was the son of George Louis , Hereditary Prince of Brunswick - Lüneburg ( later King George I of Great Britain ) , and his wife , Sophia Dorothea of Celle .

There were an estimated 2,224 passengers and crew aboard the ship , and more than 1,500 died , making it one of the deadliest commercial peacetime maritime disasters in modern history . The RMS Titanic was the largest ship afloat at the time it entered service and was the second of three Olympic - class ocean liners operated by the White Star Line . The Titanic was built by the Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast . Thomas Andrews , her architect , died in the disaster . </P> <P> Titanic was under the command of Edward Smith , who also went down with the ship . The ocean liner carried some of the wealthiest people in the world , as well as hundreds of emigrants from Great Britain and Ireland , Scandinavia and elsewhere throughout Europe who were seeking a new life in the United States . The first - class accommodation was designed to be the pinnacle of comfort and luxury , with an on - board gymnasium , swimming pool , libraries , high - class restaurants and opulent cabins . A high - powered radiotelegraph transmitter was available for sending passenger `` marconigrams '' and for the ship 's operational use . Although Titanic had advanced safety features such as watertight compartments and remotely activated watertight doors , there were not enough lifeboats to accommodate all of those aboard , due to outdated maritime safety regulations . Titanic only carried enough lifeboats for 1,178 people -- slightly more than half of the number on board , and one third of her total capacity . The ship carried a total of 16 lifeboat davits which could lower three lifeboats each , for a total of 48 boats . However , Titanic carried only a total of 20 lifeboats , four of which were collapsible and proved to be hard to launch during the sinking . </P> <P> After leaving Southampton on 10 April 1912 , Titanic called at Cherbourg in France and Queenstown ( now Cobh ) in Ireland before heading west to New York . On 14 April , four days into the crossing and about 375 miles ( 600 km ) south of Newfoundland , she hit an iceberg at 11 : 40 p.m. ship 's time . The collision caused the ship 's hull plates to buckle inwards along her starboard ( right ) side and opened five of her sixteen watertight compartments to

It expresses the principle of federalism and states ' rights , which strictly supports the entire plan of the original Constitution for the United States of America , by stating that the federal government possesses only those powers delegated to it by the United States Constitution . All remaining powers are reserved for the states or the people . </P> <P> The amendment was proposed by Congress in 1789 during its first term following the Constitutional Convention and ratification of the Constitution . It was considered by many members as a prerequisite of such ratification particularly to satisfy demands by the Anti-Federalism movement that opposed the creation of a stronger U.S. federal government . </P> <P> In drafting this amendment , its framers had two purposes in mind : first , as a necessary rule of construction ; and second , as a reaffirmation of the nature of federalism . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Text </Li> <Li> 2 Drafting and adoption </Li> <Li> 3 Judicial interpretation <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Forced participation or commandeering </Li> <Li> 3.2 Commerce clause </Li> <Li> 3.3 Federal funding </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 See also </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> <Li> 6 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Text ( edit ) </H2> <P> The full text of the amendment reads as follows : </P> <P> The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution , nor prohibited by it to the States , are reserved to the States respectively , or to the people . </P> The Bill of Rights in the National Archives The hand - written copy of the proposed Bill of Rights , 1789 , cropped to just show the text that would later be ratified as the Tenth Amendment <H2> Drafting and adoption ( edit ) </H2> <P> The Tenth Amendment is similar to an earlier provision of the Articles of Confederation : `` Each state retains its sovereignty , freedom , and independence , and every power , jurisdiction , and right , which is not by this Confederation expressly delegated to the United States , in Congress assembled . '' After the Constitution was ratified , South Carolina Representative Thomas Tudor Tucker and Massachusetts Representative Elbridge Gerry separately proposed similar amendments limiting the federal government to powers `` expressly '' delegated , which would have denied implied powers . James Madison opposed the amendments , stating that `` it was impossible to confine a Government to the exercise of express powers ; there must necessarily be admitted powers by implication , unless the Constitution descended to recount every minutia . '' When a vote on this version of the amendment with `` expressly delegated '' was defeated , Connecticut Representative Roger Sherman drafted the Tenth Amendment in its ratified form , omitting `` expressly . '' Sherman 's language allowed for an expansive reading of the powers implied by the Necessary and Proper Clause . </P> <P> When he introduced the Tenth Amendment in Congress , James Madison explained that many states were eager to ratify this amendment , despite critics who deemed the amendment superfluous or unnecessary : </P> <P> I find , from looking into the amendments proposed by the State conventions , that several are particularly anxious that it should be declared in the Constitution , that the powers not therein delegated should be reserved to the several States . Perhaps words which may define this more precisely than the whole of the instrument now does , may be considered as superfluous . I admit they may be deemed unnecessary : but there can be no harm in making such a declaration , if gentlemen will allow that the fact is as stated . I am sure I understand it so , and do therefore propose it . </P> <P>
