It is set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe ( MCU ) , sharing continuity with the films and other television series of the franchise . The season will be produced by Marvel Television in association with ABC Studios and Tall Girls Productions , with Melissa Rosenberg serving as showrunner . Krysten Ritter stars as Jones , with Rachael Taylor , Carrie - Anne Moss , and Eka Darville also returning from the first season . They are joined by Leah Gibson and J.R. Ramirez . The second season was ordered in January 2016 , with filming beginning in April 2017 , back - to - back with the miniseries Marvel 's The Defenders . Filming concluded in September 2017 . The season is scheduled to be released on March 8 , 2018 .

Ramirez as Oscar Notable guests ( edit ) David Tennant as Kilgrave Production ( edit ) Development ( edit ) In January 2015 , Netflix COO Ted Sarandos stated that Jessica Jones the series was `` eligible to go into multiple seasons for sure '' and Netflix would look at `` how well ( they ) are addressing both the Marvel fanbase but also the broader fanbase '' in terms of determining if additional seasons would be appropriate . In July 2015 , Sarandos said some of the Defender series would `` selectively have multiple seasons as they come out of the gate , '' with series showrunner Melissa Rosenberg saying she was hopeful Jessica Jones would get an additional season before Marvel 's The Defenders . Rosenberg later expanded on this , saying that Marvel Television and Netflix were working out the placement of a potential second season , though `` ( i ) t might not be possible from a logistical standpoint '' to have a second season of Jessica Jones debut before The Defenders ; Sarandos later confirmed this to be the case , stating that the season would air after The Defenders released in 2017 . On January 17 , 2016 , Netflix ordered a second season of 13 episodes . Raelle Tucker joined the season as an executive producer and writer , replacing Liz Friedman from the first season , who departed the series to work on the pilot for the ABC series , Conviction . Writing ( edit ) Rosenberg and the season 's writers were halfway through the writing process by August 2016 , with the scripts completed by the end of October 2016 . With The Defenders releasing before the season , Rosenberg used the miniseries as an opportunity to help `` set up '' elements for the season , working with The Defenders executive producers and writers Doug Petrie and Marco Ramirez to do so . Rosenberg wanted to `` continue with ( the Jessica Jones ) character '' in the season , saying , `` She 's a very damaged character , her damage goes beyond ( David Tennant 's ) Kilgrave . There 's a lot to mine from in her backstory and in her present day situation '' . Actress Krysten Ritter said that the second season would evolve from the first , and that for Jones , `` The first season was in her head and the second season is in her heart , '' adding that Jones `` is in a pretty dark headspace '' at the beginning of the season and that the season would be `` more of an emotional thriller this time . '' On whether Tennant could return for the second season , Rosenberg said , `` Sure , when you have David Tennant , you want him around forever ... But the show is called Jessica Jones and the story is about Jessica 's arc and how does that play out in its best form ? '' It was noted that Kilgrave would be `` hard to top '' though , with Marvel Television head Jeph Loeb saying , `` One of the things that 's important about any Marvel show is your hero is often defined by how strong your antagonist is , '' with Rosenberg adding that the objective for the new villain , or villains , for the season would be not to match or do what was done with Kilgrave . As Kilgrave does appear in the season , Rosenberg felt it was important to have him return to `` be that mirror again '' for Jones , as he is `` such a part of her construction and her dilemma '' . Rosenberg also hoped to `` further expand on the ensemble and on Jessica 's world '' by giving more screen time to supporting characters , noting that in the first season , `` the trick of a show that 's called Jessica Jones ( is if ) she 's not in the scene , it 's not a guarantee that scene will end up in the final picture . You have to earn secondary character stories . You have to flesh them out enough so that they can eventually carry stories of their own '' in future seasons . She also wanted to continue to explore the relationship between Jones and Trish Walker , stating `` That is the core relationship in the piece . It is about female friendship , it is about how friends evolve -- they 're sisters , really -- and it 's about how they evolve and ping off each other . '' On Jones becoming famous after her heroics in the first season , Ritter said , `` She keeps her circle small because she does n't want people in her life , so there 's no textbook on how to deal with new popularity or new eyes on you . '' Speaking on the social issues she hoped to tackle in the season , after covering `` issues of choice , interracial relationships , domestic violence , ( and ) issues of consent '' while also exploring `` feminism and being a woman in this world '' in the first , Rosenberg said , `` I 'm not quite sure yet what the social issues are that we 're dealing with ( in season 2 ) . We 're just trying to find some resonance for ( Jessica Jones ) and a new place to push her , to give Krysten something new to play and really push the boundaries of the character . '' After much of the first season was taken from the Alias comic book , Rosenberg wanted to continue that trend with the second season , but acknowledged that `` the MCU is very different from the comics in terms of its mythology . In the books there were things building towards Civil War and all that , and here that 's not the case . The nature of that is we 're probably not going to be able to continue to do parallel storylines ( to Alias ) '' . On having Jones continue to struggle with the same issues in the second season , Loeb said , `` The end of the ( first season ) -- and it was one of the things that was very important when we talked about the end of the first ( season ) -- was that it was n't , ' Ooh , I triumphed and now I can get in my hovercar and join the Avengers . ' That was n't the story we were interested in telling . '' Rosenberg elaborated by comparing the Jessica Jones to her previous series Dexter , saying that she learned `` you can advance the character , but you never want to cure the character . With Dexter , the moment he felt guilt or accepted that he was ' bad , ' the show 's over . He 's no longer a sociopath . The equivalent for us would be if Jessica somehow recovered from the damage that had been done to her . People do n't just heal '' . She added that Jones ' killing of Kilgrave at the end of the first season was `` a life changing experience '' and something that would affect the character going forward . Rosenberg also stated that the season would be `` about digging deeper into this chaos and peeling back those layers ( of Jones ' life ) , just going to the core of her being '' after the first season focused on Jones ' trauma and facing her abuser . Casting ( edit ) After the season was ordered , several main cast members revealed that they would return for the second season , including Ritter as Jessica Jones , Rachael Taylor as Patricia `` Trish '' Walker , and Carrie - Anne Moss as Jeri Hogarth . Eka Darville also reprises his role as Malcolm Ducasse . In March 2017 , J.R. Ramirez was cast as Oscar , which was revealed in July after the airing of his character 's death on Power . By that month , Leah Gibson had also joined the cast , in the role of Ingrid . In April 2017 , Janet McTeer was cast in an undisclosed role , described as someone who has `` an enormous impact on Jessica 's life . '' In August , David Tennant was confirmed to be reprising his role as Kilgrave . Filming ( edit ) Filming began the week of April 3 , 2017 in New York City , once again using the working title Violet . This followed the end of production on The Defenders in March , with Ritter having indicated in May 2016 that the season would film back - to - back with The Defenders . Filming occurred at the Long Island Aquarium and Exhibition Center . Filming for the season wrapped on September 14 , 2017 . Approaching the second season , Rosenberg wanted to increase the number of female directors working on the series as a further push for representation . This was a goal that `` Marvel was completely on board with '' , and given the demand of many talented female directors at the time , the series ' producers looked to book only female directors first , and approach male directors later in the pre-production phase if needed . Another member of the production suggested that the series book only female directors for the season , which Rosenberg `` had n't contemplated ( as a ) concept prior to that conversation '' . She quickly made that the goal of the production , and in October 2016 , Rosenberg confirmed that all 13 episodes of the season would be directed by women . Release ( edit ) The second season of Jessica Jones is scheduled to be released on March 8 , 2018 , on the streaming service Netflix worldwide , in Ultra HD 4K and high dynamic range . Marketing ( edit ) In December 2017 , a teaser trailer for the season was released , along with announcing the season release date .

The bowl replaced the defunct Houston Bowl , which played annually from 2000 to 2005 , and before that the Bluebonnet Bowl , the first bowl game in Houston , played from 1959 through 1987 . From 2011 to 2012 , the game was sponsored by Meineke Car Care and officially known as the Meineke Car Care Bowl of Texas . The game was then officially the AdvoCare V100 Texas Bowl from 2014 to 2016 , with AdvoCare as the title sponsor . Since 2017 , the game has been sponsored by Academy Sports + Outdoors .

The three - year contract with EV1.net expired on December 31 , 2005 , leaving the bowl game without a title sponsor . A college football official told the Houston Chronicle that the bowl was in danger of ceasing operations , as a result of the game losing its title sponsor and because the Houston Bowl still owed roughly $600,000 to the Big 12 and Mountain West conferences following the 2005 game . However , the NCAA approved Lone Star Sports & Entertainment , a division of the Houston Texans , who also play in Reliant Stadium , to take over game management . In July 2006 , the NFL Network acquired TV rights and naming rights to the bowl . Texas Bowl introduction ( edit ) The Texas Bowl name and logo were officially unveiled on August 10 , 2006 , at a press conference along with conference affiliations for the bowl spots . The Big 12 , Big East and Conference USA will be affiliated with the game , as well as Texas Christian University of the Mountain West . The 2006 matchup featured teams from the Big 12 and Big East Conferences . On December 3 , 2006 , Rutgers accepted an invitation to play Kansas State in the inaugural Texas Bowl . `` We 're ecstatic about having Rutgers , '' Texas Bowl director David Brady said . `` This is a top - 15 team that was three yards away from a BCS game . We could n't be happier to have them here . '' 2010 marked the eleventh consecutive year a bowl game has played in Houston , and the 40th year overall with a bowl game there ( the Bluebonnet Bowl lasted 29 years ) . It was also announced on December 30 , 2009 , that ESPN Plus would take over as part owner and operator of the game , while Lone Star Sports and Entertainment will maintain a stake in the bowl , and would be carried on ESPN . Sponsors ( edit ) On April 12 , 2011 , ESPN announced Meineke Car Care signed a three - year title sponsorship deal beginning in 2011 , changing name of the bowl to the Meineke Car Care Bowl of Texas . On February 12 , 2014 , it was announced that AdvoCare will be the title sponsor for the bowl game . That sponsorship concluded after the 2016 game . On November 15 , 2017 , Academy Sports + Outdoors became the new title sponsor of the bowl . Conference tie - ins ( edit ) On May 17 , 2007 , it was announced Conference USA would have a team in the 2007 Texas Bowl . The Texas Bowl has a rotating commitment with the Big East Conference and Conference USA for 2006 -- 09 while the Big 12 Conference will have a team in all four of those games . In 2007 , TCU took the place of the Big 12 team when Kansas and Oklahoma were put into the BCS , and Houston , a `` home team , '' represented C - USA . The conferences would receive $612,500 each as per the rules of the agreements as usually , the Big East ( or Big 12 ) would have received $750,000 for playing and C - USA would have received a $500,000 stipend for their team playing . Issues ( edit ) According to Sports Illustrated , in 2008 the bowl required Western Michigan University to purchase 11,000 tickets at full price in order to accept the invitation to play in the bowl . The university was only able to sell 548 tickets at that price , forcing it to accept a $462,535 loss , before travel expenses , to pay for the privilege of playing in the bowl .

American wine - wikipedia American wine Jump to : navigation , search American wine has been produced for over 300 years . Today , wine production is undertaken in all fifty states , with California producing 89 percent of all US wine . The United States is the fourth - largest wine producing country in the world after France , Italy , and Spain . The North American continent is home to several native species of grape , including Vitis labrusca , Vitis riparia , Vitis rotundifolia , and Vitis vulpina . But the wine making industry is based on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera , which was introduced by European settlers . With more than 1,100,000 acres ( 4,500 km ) under vine , the United States is the sixth-most planted country in the world after France , Italy , Spain , China and Turkey . Contents ( hide ) 1 History 2 Wine regions 2.1 Production by state 3 Appellation system 3.1 Appellation labeling laws 3.2 Semi-generic wines 3.3 Fighting varietals 4 Other U.S. labeling laws 5 Three - tier distribution 6 Largest producers 7 See also 8 References 9 Further reading 10 External links History ( edit ) Main article : History of American wine Sparkling wine made from a second label of Pleasant Valley Wine Company in New York which was the first bonded winery in the United States . The first Europeans to explore North America , a Viking expedition from Greenland , called it Vinland because of the profusion of grape vines they found . The earliest wine made in what is now the United States was produced between 1562 and 1564 by French Huguenot settlers from Scuppernong grapes at a settlement near Jacksonville , Florida . In the early American colonies of Virginia and the Carolinas , wine making was an official goal laid out in the founding charters . However , settlers discovered that the wine made from the various native grapes had flavors which were unfamiliar and which they did not like . This led to repeated efforts to grow the familiar European Vitis vinifera varieties , beginning with the Virginia Company exporting French vinifera vines with French vignerons to Virginia in 1619 . These early plantings met with failure as native pest and vine disease ravaged the vineyards . In 1683 , William Penn planted a vineyard of French vinifera in Pennsylvania ; it may have interbred with a native Vitis labrusca vine to create the hybrid grape Alexander . One of the first commercial wineries in the United States was founded in 1787 by Pierre Legaux in Pennsylvania . A settler in Indiana in 1806 produced wine made from the Alexander grape . Today French - American hybrid grapes are the staples of wine production on the East Coast of the United States . The Kentucky General Assembly on November 21 , 1799 passed a bill to establish a commercial vineyard and winery . The vinedresser for the vineyard was John James Dufour , formerly of Vevey , Switzerland . The vineyard was located overlooking the Kentucky River in Jessamine County in what is known as Blue Grass country of central Kentucky . Dufour named it First Vineyard on November 5 , 1798 . The vineyard 's current address in 5800 Sugar Creek Pike , Nicholasville , Kentucky . The first wine from First Vineyard was consumed by subscribers to the vineyard at John Postelthwaite 's house on March 21 , 1803 . Two 5 - gallon oak casks of wine were taken to President Thomas Jefferson in Washington , D.C. in February 1805 . The vineyard continued until 1809 , when a killing freeze in May destroyed the crop and many vines . The Dufour family abandoned Kentucky and migrated west to Vevay , Indiana , a center of a Swiss - immigrant community . In California , the first vineyard and winery was established in 1769 by the Franciscan missionary Junípero Serra near San Diego . Later missionaries carried vines northward ; Sonoma 's first vineyard was planted around 1805 . California has two native grape varieties , but they make very poor quality wine . The California Wild Grape ( Vitis californicus ) does not produce wine - quality fruit , although it sometimes is used as rootstock for wine grape varieties . The missionaries used the Mission grape . ( In South America , this grape is known as criolla or `` colonialized European '' . ) Although a Vitis vinifera variety , it is a grape of `` very modest '' quality . Jean - Louis Vignes was one of the early settlers to use a higher quality vinifera in his vineyard near Los Angeles . The first winery in the United States to become commercially successful was founded in Cincinnati , Ohio in the mid-1830s by Nicholas Longworth . He made a sparkling wine from Catawba grapes . By 1855 Ohio had 1500 acres in vineyards , according to travel writer Frederick Law Olmsted , who said it was more than in Missouri and Illinois , which each had 1100 acres in wine . German immigrants from the late 1840s had been instrumental in building the wine industry in those states . In the 1860s , vineyards in the Ohio River Valley were attacked by Black rot . This prompted several winemakers to move north to the Finger Lakes region of western New York . During this time , the Missouri wine industry , centered on the German colony in Hermann , was expanding rapidly along both shores of the Missouri River west of St. Louis . By the end of the century , the state was second to California in wine production . In the late 19th century , the phylloxera epidemic in the West and Pierce 's disease in the East ravaged the American wine industry . Prohibition in the United States began when the state of Maine became the first state to go completely dry in 1846 . Nationally , Prohibition was implemented after ratification by the states of the Eighteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution in 1920 , which forbade the manufacturing , sale and transport of alcohol . Exceptions were made for sacramental wine used for religious purposes , and some wineries were able to maintain minimal production under those auspices , but most vineyards ceased operations . Others resorted to bootlegging . Home winemaking also became common , allowed through exemptions for sacramental wines and production for home use . Following the repeal of Prohibition in 1933 , operators tried to revive the American wine making industry , which was nearly ended . Many talented winemakers had died , vineyards had been neglected or replanted with table grapes , and Prohibition had changed Americans ' taste in wines . During the Great Depression , consumers demanded cheap `` jug wine '' ( so - called dago red ) and sweet , fortified ( high alcohol ) wine . Before Prohibition dry table wines outsold sweet wines by three to one , but afterward , the ratio of demand changed dramatically . As a result , by 1935 , 81 % of California 's production was sweet wines . For decades , wine production was low and limited . Leading the way to new methods of wine production was research conducted at the University of California , Davis and some of the state universities in New York . Faculty at the universities published reports on which varieties of grapes grew best in which regions , held seminars on winemaking techniques , consulted with grape growers and winemakers , offered academic degrees in viticulture , and promoted the production of quality wines . In the 1970s and 1980s , success by Californian winemakers in the northern part of the state helped to secure foreign investment from other winemaking regions , most notably the Champenois of France . Winemakers also cultivated vineyards in Oregon and Washington , on Long Island in New York , and numerous other new locales . Americans became more educated about wines and increased their demand for high - quality wine . All 50 states now have some acreage in vineyard cultivation . By 2004 , 668 million gallons ( 25.3 million hectoliters ) of wine were consumed in the United States . Today , the U.S. produces over 800 million gallons of wine a year , of which California produces more than 84 % , followed by Washington , New York , Pennsylvania , and Oregon . In the second decade of the 21st century , the US wine industry faces the growing challenges of competition from international exports and managing domestic regulations on interstate sales and shipment of wine . Wine regions ( edit ) The Pacific Northwest includes in the winemaking regions of Washington State where varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon are grown . There are nearly 3,000 commercial vineyards in the United States , and at least one winery in each of the 50 states . West Coast -- More than 90 % of the total American wine production occurs in the states of California , Washington and Oregon . Rocky Mountain Region -- Notably Idaho and Colorado Southwestern United States -- Notably Texas and New Mexico Midwestern United States -- Notably Missouri and Illinois Great Lakes region -- Notably Michigan , northern New York and Ohio East Coast of the United States -- Notably western New York State and eastern Long Island , New Jersey , Pennsylvania , Virginia , North Carolina and Florida .

In September 1978 the Bureau of Alcohol , Tobacco and Firearms ( now Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau ) developed regulations to establish American Viticultural Areas ( AVA ) based on distinct climate and geographical features . In June 1980 , the Augusta AVA in Missouri was established as the first American Viticultural Area under the new appellation system . For the sake of wine labeling purposes , all the states and county appellations were grandfathered in as appellations . There were 187 distinct AVAs designated under U.S. law as of April 2007 . Appellation labeling laws ( edit ) In order to have an AVA appear on a wine label , at least 85 % of the grapes used to produce the wine must be grown in the AVA . With the larger state and county appellations the laws vary depending on the area . For a County Appellation , 75 % of the grapes used must be from that county . If grapes are from two or three contiguous counties , a label can have a multi-county designation so long as the percentages used from each county are clearly on the label . For the majority of U.S. States the State Appellation requires 75 % of the grapes in the wine to be grown in the state . Texas requires 75 % , but if an AVA is used like `` Texas Hill Country '' or `` Texas High Plains , '' 85 % Texas grapes must be used . California and Oregon require 100 % . If grapes are from two to three contiguous states a wine can be made under a multi-state designations following the same requirements as the multi-county appellation . American wine or United States is a rarely used appellation that classifies a wine made from anywhere in the United States , including Puerto Rico and Washington , D.C. . Wines with this designation are similar to the French wine vin de table and can not include a vintage year . By law this is the only appellation allowed for bulk wines exported to other counties . Semi-generic wines ( edit ) An example of American wines using semi-generic labels of burgundy , chablis , etc . Current U.S. laws allow American made wines to be labeled as `` American Burgundy '' or `` California champagne '' , even though these names are restricted in Europe . U.S. laws only restrict usage to include the qualifying area of origin to go with these semi-generic names . Other semi-generic names in the United States include Claret , Chablis , Chianti , Madeira , Malaga , Marsala , Moselle , Port , Rhine wine , Sauternes ( commonly spelled on U.S. wine labels as Sauterne or Haut Sauterne ) , Sherry and Tokay . European Union officials have been working with their U.S. counterparts through World Trade Organization negotiations to eliminate the use of these semi-generic names . FIGHTING varietals ( edit ) This section needs additional citations for verification . Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources . Unsourced material may be challenged and removed . ( May 2013 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) Fighting varietal is a term that originated in California during the late - 1970s as a marketing response to combat overt pressure from European wine producers . The term was coined to separate traditional domestic jug wine , whimsical brands , and imports , from premium wine production in the U.S. The U.S. dollar in the early 1980s was trading with such historic strength , it was dominating world currency markets , eventually leading to the first coordinated agreement between Central Banks in 1985 to intervene and depreciate the Dollar in what is now termed the Plaza Accord . European wines with centuries of history supporting them found it easy to compete with wine production in the U.S. on quality since the U.S. had only decades in real development of its vineyards and wine production techniques . With better quality and lower price , European wines had a substantial advantage over domestic producers which potentially slowed the growth of U.S. wine producing regions . While European consumers understood the types of grapes grown in their regions , U.S. wine consumers found European labeling standards confusing . California wineries saw that as the opportunity and coordinated together to sell varietals , named for the variety of grapes in the bottle , as a means of educating the consumer and making the product easier to understand . The actual term was coined referencing the `` fight '' against imported wines in the U.S. market using `` varietals '' instead of brands or regions for content identification . While many different people have been given credit for the origination of the term , it is unlikely a conclusive author will ever be confirmed . Other U.S. labeling laws ( edit ) In the United States , at least 95 % of grapes must be from a particular vintage for that year to appear on the label . Prior to the early 1970s , all grapes had to be from the vintage year . All labels must list the alcohol content based on percentage by volume . For bottles labeled as varietals at least 75 % of the grape must be of the variety . In Oregon , the requirement is 90 % . American wine labels are also required to list if they contain sulfites and carry the Surgeon General 's warning about alcohol consumption . Three - tier distribution ( edit ) Following the repeal of Prohibition , the United States federal government allowed each state to regulate its own production and sale of alcohol . For the majority of states this led to the development of a three - tier distribution system between the producer , wholesaler and consumer . Depending on the state there are some exceptions , with wineries allowed to sell directly to consumers on site at the winery or to ship wine across state lines . Some states allow interstate sales through e-commerce . In the 2005 case of Granholm v. Heald , the Supreme Court of the United States struck down state laws banning interstate shipments but allowing in - state sales . This Supreme Court decision meant that states could decide to allow both out - of - state wine sales and in - state sales , or ban both together . Convenience stores and retail stores are large distributors of wine , with over 175,000 outlets that sell wine across the United States . In addition , there are around 332,000 other locations ( bars , restaurants , etc . ) that sell wine , contributing to the $30 + billion in annual sales over the past three years . In 2010 , the average monthly per - store sales of wine jumped to nearly $12,000 from $9,084 in 2009 . The average gross margin dollars from wine increased to $3,324 from $2,616 in the year prior , with gross margin percentages up to an average 28.2 percent in 2010 , versus 27 percent in 2009 . Largest producers ( edit ) As of 2005 The largest producers of American wine .

Weiss will serve as showrunners for the eighth season . The directors for the eighth season were announced in September 2017 . Miguel Sapochnik , who previously directed `` The Gift '' and `` Hardhome '' on season 5 , as well as `` Battle of the Bastards '' and `` The Winds of Winter '' on season 6 will return as director . He will divide up direction of the first five episodes with David Nutter , who had directed two episodes on seasons two , three and five . The final episode of the show will be directed by Benioff and Weiss , who have previously directed one episode each . At the show 's South by Southwest panel on March 12 , 2017 , Benioff and Weiss announced the writers for the show to be Dave Hill ( episode 1 ) and Bryan Cogman ( episode 2 ) . The showrunners will then divide up the screenplay for the remaining four episodes amongst themselves . Writing ( edit ) Writing for the eighth season started with a 140 - page outline . Benioff said that the divvying up process and who should write what section became more difficult , being that `` this would be the last time that we would be doing this . '' Filming ( edit ) In an interview with Entertainment Weekly , HBO programming president Casey Bloys stated that instead of the series finale being a feature film , the final season would be `` six one - hour movies '' on television . He continued , `` The show has proven that TV is every bit as impressive and in many cases more so , than film . What they 're doing is monumental . '' Filming officially began on October 23 , 2017 . Episodes ( edit ) Co-creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss have said that the seventh and eighth season would likely consist of fewer episodes , stating that after season six , they were `` down to our final 13 episodes after this season . We 're heading into the final lap . '' Benioff and Weiss stated that they were unable to produce 10 episodes in the show 's usual 12 to 14 month time frame , as Weiss said , `` It 's crossing out of a television schedule into more of a mid-range movie schedule . '' HBO confirmed in July 2016 , that the seventh season would consist of seven episodes , and would premiere later than usual in mid-2017 because of the later filming schedule . Benioff and Weiss later confirmed that the eighth season will consist of six episodes , and is expected to premiere later than usual for the same reason . Benioff and Weiss spoke about the end of the show , saying , `` From the beginning we 've wanted to tell a 70 - hour movie . It will turn out to be a 73 - hour movie , but it 's stayed relatively the same of having the beginning , middle and now we 're coming to the end . It would have been really tough if we lost any core cast members along the way , I 'm very happy we 've kept everyone and we get to finish it the way we want to . '' The season is set to air in 2019 . Music ( edit ) Ramin Djawadi is set to return as the composer of the show for the eighth season .

Vikram Samvat - Wikipedia Vikram Samvat Jump to : navigation , search It has been requested that the title of this article be changed to Bikram Sambat . Please see the relevant discussion on the discussion page . Do not move the page until the discussion has reached consensus for the change and is closed . It has been suggested that Bikrami calendar be merged into this article . ( Discuss ) Proposed since October 2017 . Vikram Samvat ( Hindi : विक्रम सम्वत् , Nepali : विक्रम सम्वत् ) ( abbreviated as V.S. ( or VS ) or B.S. ( or BS ) ) ; Listen ( help info ) ) is the historical Hindu calendar of India and Nepal . It uses lunar months and solar sidereal year ( see : Vedic time keeping ) . It is used as the official calendar in Nepal . The Vikram Samvat has two alternative systems . It started in 56 BCE in southern ( purnimanta ) and 57 -- 56 BCE in northern ( amanta ) systems of Hindu calendar . The Shukla Paksha in both systems coincides , most festivals occur in the Shukla Paksha . The era is named after King Vikramaditya of India . The lunisolar Vikram Samvat calendar is 56.7 years ahead ( in count ) of the solar Gregorian calendar . For example , the year 2074 VS began in 2017 CE and will end in 2018 CE . The Rana rulers of Nepal made Vikram Samvat the official Hindu calendar in 1901 CE , which started as Samvat 1958 . In Nepal , the new year begins with the first day of the month of Baishakh , which usually falls within the months of April -- May in the Gregorian calendar . The first day of the new year is passionately celebrated in a historical carnival that takes place every year in Bhaktapur , called Bisket Jatra.As before , from 2007 AD Nepal Sambat is recognized as the national calender . In India , the reformulated Saka Calendar is officially used ( although not for computing the dates of the traditional festivals ) , although in the Hindi version of the Preamble of the Constitution of India , the date of adoption of the constitution , 26 November 1949 , is presented in Vikram Samvat ( Margsheersh Shukla Saptami Samvat 2006 ) . There have been calls for the Vikram Samvat to replace Saka as India 's official calendar .

Because 12 months do not match a sidereal year exactly , correctional months ( adhika māsa ) are added , or occasionally subtracted ( kshaya masa ) . Lunar metrics ( edit ) A Tithi or lunar day is defined as the time it takes for the longitudinal angle between the moon and the Sun to increase by 12 ° . Tithis begin at varying times of day and vary in duration from approximately 19 to approximately 26 hours . A Paksa ( also Pakṣa ) or lunar fortnight consists of 15 tithis . A Māsa or lunar month ( approximately 29.5 days ) is divided into 2 Pakṣa s : the one between new moon and full moon ( waxing ) is called gaura ( bright ) or Śukla Pakṣa ; the one between full moon and new moon ( waning ) Kṛiṣhṇa ( dark ) or Vadhya Pakṣa A Ṛitu ( or season ) is 2 Māsa An Ayana is 3 Ṛitus A year is two Ayanas ( 1 ) Months of the Nepali Bikram Samvat : In North India India the Vikram samvat starts from Chaitra .

History ( edit ) Vikramaditya legends ( edit ) The Jain monk Kalakacharya and the Saka King ( Kalakacharya Katha manuscript , Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya , Mumbai ) According to popular tradition , the legendary king Vikramaditya of Ujjain established the Vikrama Samvat era after defeating the Śakas . Kalakacharya Kathanaka ( `` An account of the monk Kalakacharya '' ) by the Jain sage Mahesarasuri gives the following account : Gandharvasena , the then - powerful king of Ujjain , abducted a nun called Sarasvati , who was the sister of the monk ( citation missing ) . The enraged monk sought the help of the Śaka ruler King Sahi in Sistan . Despite heavy odds but aided by miracles , the Śaka king defeated Gandharvasena and made him a captive . Sarasvati was repatriated , although Gandharvasena himself was forgiven . The defeated king retired to the forest , where he was killed by a tiger . His son , Vikramaditya , being brought up in the forest , had to rule from Pratishthana ( modern Paithan in Maharashtra ) . Later on , Vikramaditya invaded Ujjain and drove away the Śakas . To commemorate this event , he started a new era called the `` Vikrama era '' . The Ujjain calendar started around 58 -- 56 BCE , and the subsequent Shaka era calendar was started in 78 CE at Pratishthana . Historicity of the legends ( edit ) The association of the era beginning in 57 BCE with Vikramaditya is not found in any source before the 9th century CE . The earlier sources call this era by various names , including Kṛṭa ( 343 CE and 371 CE ) , Kritaa ( 404 CE ) , the era of the Malava tribe ( 424 CE ) , or simply , Samvat . The earliest known inscription that calls the era `` Vikrama '' is from 842 CE . This inscription of Chauhana ruler Chandamahasena was found at Dholpur , and is dated Vikrama Samvat 898 , Vaishakha Shukla 2 , Chanda ( 16 April 842 CE ) . The earliest known inscription that associates this era with a king called Vikramaditya is dated 971 CE . The earliest literary work that connects the era to Vikramaditya is Subhashita - Ratna - Sandoha ( 993 - 994 CE ) by the Jain author Amitagati . For this reason , multiple authors believe that the Vikram Samvat was not started by Vikramaditya , who might be a purely legendary king or the title adopted by a later king who renamed the era after himself . V.A. Smith and D.R. Bhandarkar believed that Chandragupta II adopted the title Vikramaditya , and changed the name of the era to `` Vikrama Samvat '' . According to Rudolf Hoernlé , the king responsible for this change was Yashodharman : Hoernlé also believed that he conquered Kashmir , and is same person as the `` Harsha Vikramaditya '' mentioned in Kalhana 's Rajatarangini . Earlier , some scholars believed that the Vikrama Samavat corresponded to the Azes era of the Indo - Scythian ( Śaka ) king King Azes . However , this was disputed by Robert Bracey following discovery of an inscription of Vijayamitra , which is dated in two eras . The theory seems to be now thoroughly discredited by Falk and Bennett , who place the inception of the Azes era in 47 -- 46 BCE . Culture ( edit ) The traditional New Year of Vikram Samvat is one of the many festivals of Nepal , marked by parties , family gatherings , the exchange of good wishes , and participation in rituals to ensure good fortune in the coming year . It occurs in mid-April each year , and coincides with the traditional new year in Assam , Bengal , Burma , Cambodia , Kerala , Kashmir , Manipur , Odisha , Punjab , Sri Lanka , Tamil Nadu and Thailand . In addition to Nepal , the Vikram Samvat calendar is also recognized in North and East India , and in Gujarat among Hindus . In Buddhist communities , the month of Baishakh is associated with Vesak or Buddha 's Birthday . It commemorates the birth , Enlightenment and passing of Gautama Buddha on the first full moon day in May , except in a leap year when the festival is held in June . Although this festival is not held on the same day as Pahela Baishakh , the holidays typically fall in the same month ( Baishakh ) of the Bengali , Hindu , and Theravada Buddhist calendars , and are related historically through the spread of Hinduism and Buddhism in South Asia . In Gujarat , the second day of Diwali is celebrated as the first day of the Vikram Samvat calendar which is the first day of the month Kartik . Converting Vikram Samvat to CE ( edit ) While an approximate conversion can be made by subtracting 56 or 57 , a precise computation requires identification of the version of Vikam Samvat that was used : Year expired ( default ) or current Kartikadi ( older or western India ) or Chaitradi ( modern Northern India ) . Kartikadi starts 7 months later in Kartika . Until 12th century Kartikadi year was common even in North India . Months Amanta ( south ) or Purminata ( North ) . Amanta Chaitra Krishna Paksha is Purminata Vaishakh Krishna Paksha . For the Shukla Paksh , the month is the same . Software named Pancanga is available to make the calculations . Thus the date Vikram 1208 ( Kartikadi , expired ) , Vaishakh Krishna 5 ( Purnimanta ) , Thursday , is equivalent to Vikram 1209 ( Chaitradi , expired ) , Chaitra Krishna 5 ( Amanta ) , and to Thursday March 27 , 1152 .

Honda Fit - wikipedia Honda Fit Jump to : navigation , search Honda Fit Overview Manufacturer Honda Also called Honda Jazz Production 2001 -- present Body and chassis Class Supermini ( B ) Body style 5 - door hatchback Layout Front - engine , front - wheel - drive or four - wheel - drive ( Japan ) Platform Honda Global Small Car Chronology Predecessor Honda Logo Honda Capa Honda Civic ( hatchback only , North America until 2016 ) Honda S - MX The Honda Fit ( Japanese : ホンダ ・ フィット , Honda Fitto ) , also marketed as the Honda Jazz ( Japanese : ホンダ ・ ジャズ , Honda Jazu ) , is a five - door , front - engine , front - wheel drive B - segment subcompact car manufactured and marketed by Honda since 2001 and now in its third generation . Marketed worldwide and manufactured at ten plants in eight countries , sales reached almost 5 million by mid-2013 . Sharing Honda 's global small - car platform with the City , Airwave , Mobilio , Mobilio Spike , Freed and Freed Spike , the Fit is noted for its one - box or monospace with an interior design concept that achieves a re-configurable cargo volume competitive with larger vehicles . Honda released hybrid petrol - electric versions of the Fit in Japan in October 2010 and in Europe in early 2011 . Honda released the Fit EV , a limited production all - electric version , in the United States in July 2012 and in Japan the following month . By 2012 , Honda Fit was produced in 12 countries , including Japan , Brazil , China , India and Indonesia . Honda uses the nameplate `` Jazz '' in Europe , Oceania , the Middle East , Africa , and most parts of Asia -- and the name `` Fit '' in Japan , Sri Lanka , China , Taiwan , and the Americas .

At its introduction in 2001 , it won the Car of the Year Japan Award . By December 2001 , it had outsold the Toyota Corolla , and ranked first in sales for nine out of twelve months in 2002 . It subsequently was introduced in Europe ( early 2002 ) , Australia ( late 2002 ) , South America ( early 2003 ) , South Africa and South - East Asia ( 2003 ) , China ( Sep 2004 ) , and Mexico ( late 2005 ) . The Fit 's fuel tank under the front seat and compact rear suspension have enabled the rear seats to fold especially low , creating a flexible and regularised cargo volume that is large for its class . See : Honda Fit : diagram with forward fuel tank location and rear seat folded , into space typically occupied by the fuel tank . A production model for the United States and Canada debuted on January 8 , 2006 at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit . The car was released in Canada on 3 April 2006 , and in the U.S. on 20 April 2006 as a 2007 model year car . In the North American markets , the first generation Fit was replaced after only two model years by a new 2009 model , which was released for Japan in November 2007 as a 2008 model . Subsequent iterations would maintain the same platforms worldwide . Models The first generation Fit was sold in 6 variations whilst its City / Fit Aria sedan sibling was sold in 4 variations . All first generation Fit / Jazz models throughout the world utilized the following distinct codes , found in the vehicle 's identification number ( VIN ) : Fit / Jazz GD1 : 1.3 L L13A i - DSI Inline - four engine 2WD ( Europe : 1.4 L ) GD2 : 1.3 L L13A i - DSI Inline - four engine 4WD ( Japan only ) GD3 : 1.5 L L15A VTEC Inline - four engine 2WD GD4 : 1.5 L L15A VTEC Inline - four engine 4WD ( Japan only ) GD5 : 1.2 L L12A Inline - four engine ( Europe ) GE3 : 1.3 L L13A i - DSI Inline - four engine 2WD ( 2007 Europe 1.4 L model . Made in China ) Drivetrain and platform ( edit ) Depending on the region , the Fit is available with a 1.2 - , 1.3 - ( in Europe referred as 1.4 L model ) , 1.5 - litre i - DSI engine , or 1.5 - litre VTEC engine . All four engines are based on Honda 's L - series engine family . The eight - valve i - DSI ( intelligent dual and sequential ) engines use two spark plugs per cylinder , allowing petrol to burn more completely ; therefore , fuel consumption and emissions are reduced while maximum torque at mid-range rpm is maintained . The 1.5 L VTEC engine has the typical 16 - valve configuration that can maximise output at high rpm . Iinterior Honda Fit 's L - series of engines also provides the castings and reciprocating mass for Honda Marine 's 75 and 90 horsepower ( 67 kW ) outboard motors , the BF75 and the BF90 . The engines are mated to a five - speed manual , five - speed automatic , and continuously variable transmission ( CVT ) , depending on the region ( CVT not offered in United States prior to 2015 ) . Two forms of the CVT are offered : the regular , and the CVT - 7 . The CVT - 7 offers a smooth , continuous flow of power , or seven simulated `` gears '' controlled by paddle shifters on the steering column . The Fit uses Honda 's Global Small Car platform , which is also used by the Fit Aria / City ( a sedan version of the Fit ) , the Airwave ( a station wagon version of the Fit Aria / City ) , the Mobilio , and the Mobilio Spike . Interior packaging concept ( edit ) External images Honda Fit fuel tank location Ultra Seat ( Normal mode ) Ultra Seat ( Tall mode ) Ultra Seat ( Utility mode ) Ultra Seat ( Long mode ) Ultra Seat ( Refresh mode ) Ultra Luggage ( Regular mode ) Ultra Luggage ( Tall mode ) Ultra Luggage ( Upper / lower mode ) The Fit 's central fuel tank location under the front rather than rear seats -- combined with a compact , semi-independent , H - shaped torsion beam rear suspension -- allows for a lower load platform and increased cargo volume . Noted for its `` class leading utilization of interior space and maximum flexibility for people or cargo , '' the Fit offered approximately twice the storage space behind its rear seat compared with the Toyota Yaris hatchback . Ultra Seat : The fuel tank and rear suspension layout also allows a multiple - mode seating system , marketed by Honda as Ultra Seat ( Asia ) and Magic Seat ( North America , Oceania ) , with four seating modes -- and a fifth in certain markets : Normal : seats are in their normal position with seating for five . Utility : Either section ( or both ) of the 60 : 40 split rear seat folds and lowers onto itself , creating a flat load surface and increased cargo area . Long : The rear seat behind the passenger folds down similar to utility mode , but the front passenger seat folds backward , leaving an area that can hold items as long as 2.4 meters ( 7.9 ft ) . Tall : Either section ( or both ) of the rear seat cushion fold up against the rear seat back , allowing for an area of 1.28 meters ( 4.2 ft ) in height . Refresh : With the headrest of the front seat removed , the front seat back can be folded down to form a lounge - style sitting area . ( available in certain markets ) According to the Fit 's chief engineer , Kohei Hitomi , the Magic / Ultra seating system 's design `` came about after the design team had spent long hours watching people in supermarkets and how they stored their things . '' Ultra Luggage : In certain markets , Honda offers the Fit / Jazz without a spare tyre , a system marketed as Ultra Luggage , where the spare tyre well is used as part of a ' Tall ' mode cargo area behind the rear seats . A flexible flap allows three configurations of rear storage : Regular , Tall and Upper / Lower mode . Production ( edit ) The first generation Fit was produced at six locations , in Suzuka , Japan ; Sumaré , Brazil ; Guangzhou , China ; Ayutthaya , Thailand ; Karawang , Indonesia ; and Laguna , Philippines . Models produced in Japan were for Honda 's home market , Europe , some Asian markets , Australia ( till the end of 2005 ) , Canada and the United States . Models for the Malaysian , Singaporean and Vietnamese markets are produced in Thailand . The Brazilian factory supplied Mexico , all of Latin America and the Caribbean . Chinese models were sold in mainland China , and products from a dedicated export plant were exported to some left - hand - drive European markets , while Jazz models in Hong Kong were imported from Japan . Japan JDM - spec Honda Fit . Two engines ( 1.3 i - DSI and 1.5 VTEC ) were offered , each with a number of trim lines ranging from the basic `` Y '' to the sporty `` S '' . The 1.3 L i - DSI was available with only the regular CVT automatic . The 1.5 L VTEC model with the CVT - 7 was added in September 2002 . A five - speed manual was added in June 2004 for FWD model with the larger engine . Unique to the Japanese market , the Fit is also available in 4WD . Starting at a price of about JPY1 , 123,000 is the basic 1.3 Y model . At the top of the range is the 1.5 W four - wheel - drive version for JPY1 , 743,000 . A bewildering range of options and accessories are available at most levels , including Honda 's HDD GPS Navigation System called Internavi with its 6.5 - inch ( 170 mm ) colour screen . This system incorporates TV and FM radio . In Japan , the Fit replaced the market segment previously served by the Honda Civic and shared a platform with the Honda City when the Civic no longer complied with Japanese Government dimension regulations when the Civic exceeded the 1700mm width dimension . Europe Like Japan , the European market also has two engines available . The European - only 1.2 i - DSI is offered as the base model in many countries , and can be purchased only with a five - speed manual transmission . The 1.4 i - DSI is identical to the 1,339 cc 1.3 i - DSI sold in Japan , but marketed as a 1.4 L to differentiate it from the smaller 1.2 L engine ( ironically , at 1,244 cc , it is closer to 1.3 L than the bigger one is to 1.4 L ) . 1.4 L models started out well - equipped with the 5 - speed manual standard and the CVT - 7 available as an option . All European models have Anti-lock braking system ( ABS ) with disc brakes on the front wheels and drum brakes or disc brakes on the rear ones . Side airbags are standard on some high end models . The car has a good reputation in Europe with the UK 's biggest automotive survey , performed by the motoring show Top Gear , revealing that the Honda Jazz was the second best vehicle on UK roads ( after the Honda S2000 ) , as voted by UK car owners in 2006 . The popularity of the Jazz has made it Honda 's best - selling model in the region , comprising 30 % of all European Honda sales . Top Gear also stated that Honda Jazz ( and the Toyota Yaris ) is the closest to reality car that money can buy , meaning that a Honda Jazz can cover the majority of the automotive needs that man has today . China Local production and sale of the Fit ( Hatchback ) in China started in September 2004 , roughly one year after the launch of the sedan version ' Fit saloon ' ( City / Fit Aria ) in September 2003 . The trims are similar to those in Japan ; with the combination of 1.3 i - DSI , 1.5 VTEC , five - speed manual , and CVT , there are four models in total . United States and Canada 2007 Honda Fit base and Sport ( U.S. ) The Fit went on sale in the United States and Canada in April 2006 for model year 2007 , replacing the Civic hatchback for North America and becoming that market 's chief entry - level subcompact . The Civic continues to grow in size and price and was reclassified as a compact ( larger than a subcompact ) in 2001 . In keeping with Honda 's safety initiative , the Fit was offered in North America with power windows , standard side airbags , side - curtain airbags , and ABS , in addition to the mandatory front airbags . Due to differing safety regulations , North American Fits have larger bumpers , and a longer front clip , than the rest of the world , resulting in a slight increase in overall length . For the 2008 model , US models feature the Tire Pressure Monitoring System ( TPMS ) to alert the driver of low pressure in any of the four stock wheels . Unlike some systems , the system in the 2008 Fit notifies the driver that a tyre is low , but not which tyre . The Fit narrowly missed qualifying for the Canadian government 's $1,000 rebate , which is only offered for cars that meet the new federal fuel efficiency rating . Honda Canada Inc. decided to reimburse consumers the rebate for 2007 , and a revision to the federal ratings allowed the 2008 Fit to qualify for the $1,000 rebate . The Fit was offered in two variants in the United States ( Base and Sport ) , and three in Canada ( DX , LX and Sport ) . Differences were primarily limited to cosmetics and standard equipment , since all models shared the same 1.5 L 109 hp ( 81 kW ) engine and standard five - speed manual transmission . A conventional five - speed automatic transmission was optional , instead of the CVT automatic found throughout the rest of the world . The Fit Sport received paddle shifters mounted behind the steering - wheel when ordered with the automatic . For 2006 , 27,934 Fits were sold in the United States . A total of 56,432 Fits were sold in the United States in 2007 . The 2008 Honda Fit was largely unchanged from the 2007 with the exception of the TPMS and new windshield wipers that abandon the large rubber blade design to a more traditional rigid plastic with thin rubber blade design . MSRP was also increased by roughly US $100 . Total sales in the United States for the year were 79,794 , an increase of almost 41 % over previous year . Reception Honda marketed the Fit as `` Small is the New Big '' . Car and Driver magazine described that `` ( n ) ot only is it endowed with an impressive array of standard features and an upscale interior , but its dynamics rival the responses of cars with much fancier pedigrees and price tags . '' The magazine even cited its lane - change number of 71.4 mph edged the best run by a Ferrari F430 Spider F1 tested . And the car was included in Car and Driver 's 10 Best Lists for three times . In May 2006 , Fit was placed first in a Car and Driver comparison of seven economy cars that included Nissan Versa and Toyota Yaris . Consumer Guide said in its review , `` While prices seem steep for a subcompact ( compared to the Toyota Yaris and Nissan Versa ) , this is one in name and exterior size only ; it 's really a small wagon that challenges some compact SUVs for room while getting significantly better fuel economy '' . Mexico Fit , sourced from Brazil , was launched in October 2005 . Fit is currently ( 2014 ) made in Mexico . Brazil Honda started local production and sale of Fit in April 2003 when Brazil became the second production base , after Japan , for Fit . In Brazil , though initially was available with the 1.3 L i - DSI engine only , eventually the Fit has the same engines as the Japanese models ( all Brazilian Honda cars have engines imported from Japan ) and there are three trim levels available . Base model LX features the 1.35 i - DSI engine ( which is marketed as 1.4 in Brazil ) and driver side airbag . The second model in the range , the LXL , features the same engine from the LX , but adds some extra equipment : passenger side airbag and ABS . Top model EX has essentially the same equipment as the LXL , but comes with the 1.5 VTEC engine . All models are available with the five - speed manual or the regular CVT automatic . There are neither side airbags nor side curtains available for the Brazilian version . Also , the radio antenna is positioned differently , as it is near the front of the roof . Honda started selling the 2007 model in February 2006 with new bumpers and some cosmetic changes . Alcohol ( ethanol ) and gasoline hybrid Fit : Honda Brazil began sales in mid-December 2006 , only for the 1.35 i - DSI. 80 hp ( 60 kW ) at 100 % gasoline and 83 hp ( 62 kW ) at 100 % alcohol . It also works with any intermediary mix rate . There is an additional gasoline fuel tank on the right side under the triangle window for low temperature starts . Honda Fit was awarded by Quatro Rodas magazine as Best Buy in 2005 and 2006 , and as the car with happiest buyers in 2004 , 2005 , 2006 and 2007 . South Africa Launched in 2003 , it was sold as the Jazz in South Africa .

The advantages of the system are low cost , low weight and that it can be combined with either manual transmission or continuous variable transmission . The car is better suited than its diesel competitors in areas where superminis are most common : city centres . It is more economical in urban conditions . Thanks to the instant torque of the electric motor , it has a much better engine response .

Loop ( graph Theory ) - wikipedia Loop ( graph Theory ) Jump to : navigation , search A graph with a loop on vertex 1 In graph theory , a loop ( also called a self - loop or a `` buckle '' ) is an edge that connects a vertex to itself . A simple graph contains no loops . Depending on the context , a graph or a multigraph may be defined so as to either allow or disallow the presence of loops ( often in concert with allowing or disallowing multiple edges between the same vertices ) : Where graphs are defined so as to allow loops and multiple edges , a graph without loops or multiple edges is often distinguished from other graphs by calling it a `` simple graph '' . Where graphs are defined so as to disallow loops and multiple edges , a graph that does have loops or multiple edges is often distinguished from the graphs that satisfy these constraints by calling it a `` multigraph '' or `` pseudograph '' . In a graph with one vertex , all edges must be loops . Such a graph is called a bouquet . Contents ( hide ) 1 Degree 2 See also 3 References 4 External links Degree ( edit ) For an undirected graph , the degree of a vertex is equal to the number of adjacent vertices . A special case is a loop , which adds two to the degree . This can be understood by letting each connection of the loop edge count as its own adjacent vertex . In other words , a vertex with a loop `` sees '' itself as an adjacent vertex from both ends of the edge thus adding two , not one , to the degree . For a directed graph , a loop adds one to the in degree and one to the out degree .

( January 2017 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) Taos County , New Mexico . Justice of the Peace Montoyo hears a minor case . ( 1941 ) A justice of the peace ( JP ) is a judicial officer , of a lower or puisne court , elected or appointed by means of a commission ( letters patent ) to keep the peace . In past centuries the term commissioner of the peace was often used with the same meaning . Depending on the jurisdiction , such justices dispense summary justice or merely deal with local administrative applications in common law jurisdictions . Justices of the peace are appointed or elected from the citizens of the jurisdiction in which they serve , and are ( or were ) usually not required to have any formal legal education in order to qualify for the office . Some jurisdictions have varying forms of training for JPs .

They were responsible to the King for ensuring that the law was upheld and preserving the `` King 's peace '' . Therefore , they were known as `` keepers of the peace '' . An act of 1327 had referred to `` good and lawful men '' to be appointed in every county in the land to `` guard the peace '' ; such individuals were first referred to as conservators of the peace , or wardens of the peace . The title justice of the peace derives from 1361 , in the reign of Edward III . The `` peace '' to be guarded is the sovereign 's , the maintenance of which is the duty of the Crown under the royal prerogative . Justices of the peace still use the power conferred or re-conferred on them since 1361 to bind over unruly persons `` to be of good behaviour '' . The bind over is not a punishment , but a preventive measure , intended to ensure that people thought likely to offend will not do so . The justices ' alternative title of `` magistrate '' dates from the 16th century , although the word had been in use centuries earlier to describe some legal officials of Roman times . In the centuries from the Tudor period until the onset of the Industrial Revolution , the JPs constituted a major element of the English ( later British ) governmental system , which had been termed sometimes squirearchy ( i.e. , dominance of the land - owning gentry ) . For example , historian Tim Blanning notes that while in Britain the royal prerogative was decisively curbed by the Bill of Rights 1689 , in practice the central government in London had a greater ability to get its policies implemented in the rural outlying regions than could contemporary absolute monarchies such as France -- a paradox due especially to JPs belonging to the same social class as the Members of Parliament and thus having a direct interest in getting laws actually enforced and implemented on the ground . Being an unpaid office , undertaken voluntarily and sometimes more for the sake of renown or to confirm the justice 's standing within the community , the justice was typically a member of the gentry . The justices of the peace conducted arraignments in all criminal cases , and tried misdemeanours and infractions of local ordinances and bylaws . Towns and boroughs with enough burdensome judicial business that could not find volunteers for the unpaid role of justice of the peace had to petition the Crown for authority to hire a paid stipendiary magistrate . The Municipal Corporations Act 1835 stripped the power to appoint normal JPs from those municipal corporations that had it . This was replaced by the present system , where the Lord Chancellor nominates candidates with local advice , for appointment by the Crown . Until the introduction of elected county councils in the 19th century , JPs , in quarter sessions , also administered the county at a local level . They fixed wages , regulated food supplies , built and controlled roads and bridges , and undertook to provide and supervise locally those services mandated by the Crown and Parliament for the welfare of the county . Women were not allowed to become JPs in the United Kingdom until 1919 , the first woman being Ada Summers , the Mayor of Stalybridge , who was a JP ( Ex officio ) by virtue of her office . In October 1920 Ada was appointed a JP officially , alongside other pioneers like Miriam Lightowler OBE in Halifax Emily Murphy of Edmonton , Canada , preceded her by some three and a half years . Now in the UK , 50 % of JPs are women . In special circumstances , a justice of the peace can be the highest governmental representative , so in fact ' gubernatorial ' , in a colonial entity . This was the case in the Tati Concessions Land , a gold - mining concession ( territory ) in the Matabele kingdom , until its annexation by the British Bechuanaland protectorate . See also : Magistrates ' court ( Russia ) Modern use ( edit ) Australia ( edit ) A justice of the peace in Australia is typically someone of good stature in the community who is authorised to witness and sign statutory declarations and affidavits and to certify copies of original documents . Criteria for appointment vary widely , depending on the state . Queensland ( edit ) In the state of Queensland , a `` justice of the peace ( qualified ) '' has the additional powers to issue search warrants and arrest warrants and , in conjunction with another justice of the peace ( qualified ) constitute a magistrates ' court for exercising powers to remand defendants in custody , grant bail , and adjourn court hearings . Some justices are appointed as justice of the peace ( magistrates ' court ) , usually in remote aboriginal communities , to perform many of the functions that might otherwise fall to a stipendiary magistrate . In Queensland , a lawyer may be appointed as a Justice of the Peace without further education or qualification and has the full powers of a JP ( Magistrate 's Court ) . A commissioner for declarations ( C. dec ) has powers limited to witnessing documents , witnessing statutory declarations , witnessing affidavits , witnessing and administering oaths and affirmations . The first woman to become a JP in Queensland was Matilda ( Maud ) Hennessey of Mackay on 24 April 1918 . Victoria ( edit ) Justices of the peace and bail justices , who are also volunteers , are appointed to serve a semi-judicial function in all areas of the Victorian community . The main official roles in the Victorian community include witnessing statutory declarations , witnessing affidavits and hearing bail matters outside court hours ( bail justices only ) . The first woman to become a JP in Victoria was Mary Catherine Rogers who , in 1920 , became the first woman councillor in Australia when she was elected in the City of Richmond . Justices of the peace ( JPs ) provide a service to the community as independent witnesses of statutory declarations , powers of attorney and affidavits . JPs , who are also volunteers , are selected through an extensive interview , written exam and practical testing . They are recommended by the state attorney - general and appointed by the governor - in - council , and it is their job to authorise and witness statutory declarations and affidavits within the state of Victoria . There are currently around 4,800 JPs serving in all areas of the state . Bail justices ( edit ) The role of a bail justice is to hear bail applications ( under the Bail Act 1977 ) and to hear applications for interim accommodation orders for children ( under the Children and Young Persons Act 1989 ) within Victoria . Bail justices , once appointed , may remain in their role until they turn 70 years of age ( although they must be under 65 at the time of their appointment ) . They are often required to attend call outs and rule on bail applications or protection applications for children in danger on weekends and late at night when the courts are closed , but they can also witness Victorian statutory declarations and affidavits . Candidates must successfully complete a three - day training course run by the Department of Justice . Bail justices , who are also volunteers , also have some limited powers under federal legislation , including the power to conduct interstate extradition hearings and extending question time for federal police . Bail Justices may use the post-nominals BJ after their names . New South Wales ( edit ) The most common functions performed by a justice of the peace in New South Wales are to witness the signing of a statutory declaration , witness the signing of an affidavit and certify that a copy of an original document is a true copy . JPs are appointed by the Governor of New South Wales for five - year terms . They are volunteers , who come from all walks of life and all sections of the community . JPs are people who are trusted to be honest , careful and impartial when performing the functions of a JP . They must not charge a fee or accept a gift for providing JP services , tell people what to write in a statutory declaration or affidavit or write it for them or give them legal advice . Ways to find a JP in New South Wales include : 1 . Search the JP Public Register . The register lists all JPs for each postcode area and provides a telephone contact number for JPs who serve the community directly . 2 . Check a public listing of scheduled JP services to find when JPs are available at scheduled times and locations across the state . South Australia ( edit ) In South Australia , there are two types of justices : justice of the peace and special justices . A justice of the peace ( JP ) in South Australia is typically someone of good stature in the community who is authorised to witness and sign statutory declarations , affidavits , waiver rights , search warrants , drug warrants , divorce documents , and to certify copies of original documents and to witness the signing of power of attorney and guardianship documents , providing the JP is satisfied with the capability of the signatory . A Special Justice ( SJ ) is a higher level of justice of the peace in South Australia ; they sit on the bench of the magistrates ' court hearing cases in the petty sessions division . The South Australian Attorney - General has set up a web site to locate justices of the peace . The majority of metropolitan and many regional Councils ( Local Government authorities ) have a rotational justice of the peace in residence at nominated times . Western Australia ( edit ) Justices of the peace in Western Australia are appointed by the Governor who authorises them to carry out a wide range of official administrative and judicial duties in the community . As well as presiding in the Magistrates Court , justices of the peace are regularly called upon by the WA Police to sign search warrants and authorise the issuing of summonses . The administrative tasks include witnessing affidavits and documents such as wills and statutory declarations . ' Visiting justices ' are a special group of justices of the peace , appointed to preside over cases within the prison system . Belgium ( edit ) In Belgium , the justice of the peace ( French : juge de paix , Dutch : vrederechter ) is a law - trained judge who sits the lowest Court of record with original jurisdiction over small claims ( less than € 2500 ) matters of civil , commercial , and family law , including : tenancy and lease disputes , neighborhood disputes ( party structures , trespassing , noise pollution ) , apartment buildings , small deceased estates , alimony , guardianships & adoption , and the commitment of mental patients and oversight of their care . Litigants may opt either for conciliation or trial . Lawyers may act as locum tenens JPs . Canada ( edit ) In Canada , justices of the peace play a role in the administration of justice at the provincial level . Justices are generally appointed by the lieutenant governors of Canada 's provinces , and by the commissioners of Canada 's territories , on the advice of their relevant premier or Attorney General . Canada made the first appointment in the then British Empire of a woman as a magistrate , namely Emily Murphy , who was sworn in as a police magistrate in the Women 's Court of the City of Edmonton ( Alberta ) on 19 June 1916 . British Columbia ( edit ) In British Columbia , pursuant to the Provincial Court Act , all judges are justices of the peace , and hence all of them are peace officers . Northwest Territories ( edit ) In the Northwest Territories , justices may hear summary conviction matters , municipal by - laws , and certain criminal matters . However , in more populated provinces justices usually preside over bail hearings and provincial offences courts . When not in a court session , a justice can perform other judicial functions , such as issuing search warrants . Ontario ( edit ) In Ontario , justices perform a wide variety of duties related to criminal and regulatory law , at the federal , provincial and municipal levels . Ontario JP wear a green sash versus red worn by judges . Quebec ( edit ) In Quebec , there are two type of justices of the peace , administrative justice of the peace and presiding justice of the peace . Administrative justice of the peace are court officers appointed by the Minister of Justice , and perform duties such as receiving criminal informations and issuing warrants . Presiding justice of the peace are appointed by commission under the Great Seal , and can try some criminal matters and issue warrants . They are appointed from advocates of at least ten years ' standing and serve full - time until the age of 70 . Yukon ( edit ) In Yukon , justices of the peace are lay officers of the court . They sit in the Justice of the Peace Court , which is part of the Territorial Court of Yukon . Hong Kong ( edit ) In Hong Kong , the historical functions of justices of the peace have been replaced by full - time , legally qualified magistrates . Nowadays , justices of the peace are essentially titles of honour given by the Government to community leaders , and to certain officials while they are in their terms of offices . They have no judicial functions , and their main duties include visiting prisons , institutions for young offenders and drug addicts , psychiatric hospitals , remand homes , places of refuge , reception and detention centres , administering statutory declarations , and serving as members of advisory panels . India ( edit ) In India , justices of the peace do exist , but they no longer occupy a prominent post . One of the famous justices in India was Kavasji Jamshedji Petigara . Maharaja Prabirendra Mohan Tagore son of Maharaja Sir Prodyut Kumar Tagore KCSI of Calcutta was designated Justice of the Peace in 1932 . He played a great part in saving more than 200 Muslim lives during the infamous riots in 1947 during the partition of India , by sheltering the Muslims in the Calcutta locality and most importantly in his palace itself . Ireland ( edit ) Justices of the peace existed in Ireland prior to 1922 , sitting in a bench under the supervision of resident magistrates at petty sessions to try minor offences summarily , and with a county court judge ( in his capacity of chairman of quarter sessions ) and jury to try more serious offences at quarter sessions . In the Irish Free State the position was effectively abolished by the District Justices ( Temporary Provisions ) Act 1923 and permanently abolished by the Courts of Justice Act 1924 . Their judicial powers were replaced by full - time , legally qualified district justices ( now called district judges ) and their quasi-judicial powers by lay Peace Commissioners . Peace commissioners may sign statutory declarations , and may issue summons and search warrants to the Garda Síochána ( Irish police ) . A Peace Commissioner can not sign an Affidavit , in Ireland that function is performed by a Commissioner for Oaths . Jamaica ( edit ) A justice of the peace ( JP ) , according to the Ministry of Justice , is a person of unquestionable integrity who seeks to promote and protect the rights of the individual and helps to provide justice to persons in a particular community . Additionally , the JP serves as a justice in petty court sessions , attends juvenile court sessions , issues summonses , considers applications for bail , explains and signs legal documents , sits on licensing panels , and gives counsel / advice . Any Jamaican citizen that can speak and write English is eligible to become a JP . Any club / organisation / citizen can recommend someone to become JP for a community . JPs are chosen under the Governor - General 's discretion . Malaysia ( edit ) In Malaysia , justices of the peace have largely been replaced in magistrates ' courts by legally qualified ( first - class ) stipendiary magistrates . However , state governments continue to appoint justices of the peace as honours . In 2004 , some associations of justices of the peace pressed the federal government to allow justices of the peace to sit as second - class magistrates in order to reduce the backlog of cases in the courts . New Zealand ( edit ) A Justice of the Peace in New Zealand is someone of good stature in the community who is authorized to witness and sign statutory declarations and affidavits as well as certify documents . They may also perform citizenship ceremonies and act as a Visiting Justice in prisons the function of which is to record a prisoner 's grievance and decide on its validity . They have certain powers to issue search warrants , and ( in conjunction with another justice of the peace ) may try minor criminal trials in the district court and exercise powers to remand defendants in custody , grant bail , and adjourn court hearings . They are nominated for office by local Members of Parliament and appointed by the Governor General . Appointment is for life and a JP must take the Oath of Allegiance and the Judicial Oath . Pakistan ( edit ) Sections 22 , 22 - A and 22 - B of the Code of Criminal Procedure Code , 1898 provide for the appointment of justices of the peace by the provincial governments , their powers and duties respectively . However , seldom are justices of the peace appointed in Pakistan outside the judiciary . Session and additional session judges act as ex-officio justices of the peace as per Section 25 of the Code of Criminal Procedure , 1898 . An Ex-officio Justice of the Peace may issue appropriate directions to the police authorities concerned on a complaint regarding - ( i ) non-registration of a criminal case ; ( ii ) transfer of investigation from one police officer to another ; and ( iii ) neglect , failure or excess committed by a police authority in relation to its functions and duties . Such functions being quasi-judicial in nature could not be termed as executive , administrative or ministerial. ( PLD 2016 Supreme Court 581 ) It is pertinent to note however , as many academics have pointed out , that there is great utility in the appointment of such justices especially in rural areas where enmity between rival groups can lead to the inability of registration of cognizable offences and biased judicial proceedings . Singapore ( edit ) A justice of the peace in Singapore derives his powers from statute law . He is appointed by the President of the Republic of Singapore , under the provisions of section 11 ( l ) of the Subordinate Courts Act ( Cap. 321 ) . The President may revoke the appointment of any justice of the peace . A newly appointed justice of the peace is required by section 17 of the Subordinate Courts Act , to take the oath of office and allegiance as set out in the schedule to the Subordinate Courts Act , before exercising the functions of his office . In their role , JPs serve as visiting justices of Singapore prisons , mediators or referees in the subordinate courts . They may also solemnise marriages in the Registry of Marriages or perform the duties of the magistrate conferred on them by any written law . Sri Lanka ( edit ) In Sri Lanka , Justice of the Peace ( JP ) is an honorary post , with authorization to witness and sign statutory declarations and affidavits . Persons appointed as a Justice of the Peace may use the post-nominal JP . Current appointments are made under the Judicature Act No 02 of 1978 , by the Minister of Justice at his / her discretion by publishing a list in the Gazette and appointee taking oaths before a high court , district court judge or magistrate with registrar of the supreme court recording it . Any citizen of Sri Lanka can apply to the Ministry of Justice giving his or her credentials to be appointed as a justice of the peace . However , the applicant should be one who has served the public and carries out social service and should be of good standing . The President of Sri Lanka and his / her officers are ex officio justices of the peace . A justice of the peace , who is an Attorney at law can be appointed as an unofficial magistrate . The post was introduced in the British colonial era , during which time appointments were made by the Governor until 1938 , after which appointments were made by the Legal Secretary until 1947 . After Ceylon gained its independence in 1948 , appointments were made by the Governor General and the Minister of Justice . Justice of the Peace had the power to administer oaths and affirmations per the Courts Ordinance No. 1 on 1889 section 84 and they could formally appoint members of the public to act as special police officers in times of turmoil and riots . Since certain government officers were ex-officio justices of the peace , this allowed British colonial officers to appoint special police officers from the European planters in times of crisies such as the 1915 riots . The Village Councils Law ( No. 6 of 1964 ) made the Chairman of the Village Council an ex officio justices of the peace for that village area . Tonga ( edit ) In 2014 , for the first time , Justices of the Peace were authorized in Tonga . JPs are appointed by the Crown , but the Lord Chief Justice regulates their duties and defines their powers . The first JPs were warranted with duties including granting bail ; issuing search warrants and subpoenas ; taking affidavits , declarations and oaths ; and having the power to witness documents . Term of office is one year and officials can be reappointed . The initial 19 JPs appointed were : ' Aisea Ta'ofi and Sione Hinakau of Niuatoputapu ; ' Inoke Tuaimei'api of Niuafo'ou ; Siosiua Hausia from ʻEua ; Sione Palu , Sione Fakahua , Me'ite Fukofuka and Kisione Taulani of Ha'apai ; Salesi Kauvaka , Viliami Pasikala , Haniteli Fa'anunu , Meli Taufaeteau and Moleni Taufa from Vava'u ; and Salote Fukofuka , ' Amelia Helu , ' Ofa Likiliki , Tevita Fakatou , Sioape Tu'iono and Semisi Tongia of Tongatapu .

They are advised on points of law and procedure by a legally qualified justices ' clerk and their assistants . No formal qualifications are required but magistrates need intelligence , common sense , integrity and the capacity to act fairly . Membership is widely spread throughout the local area and drawn from all walks of life . All magistrates are carefully trained before sitting and continue to receive training throughout their service . Magistrates are unpaid volunteers but they may receive allowances to cover travelling expenses and subsistence . Lay justices or magistrates must sit for a minimum of 26 sessions ( half - days ) per year , but some sit as much as a day a week , or possibly more . Magistrates can sit alone to hear issues such as warrant applications or many traffic offences under the new Single Justice Procedure . In addition to the lay justices , there are a small number of district judges , formerly known as stipendiary magistrates . These are legally qualified , full - time members of the magistracy and hear cases alone , without any other magistrates on the bench . It is important to distinguish the district judge ( magistrates ' court ) from the district judges who usually sit in the county court . Magistrates ' courts today can deal with minor offences ( fines of up to £ 5,000 , or imprisonment of up to six months for a single offence or 12 months for consecutive sentences , or both ) and handle over 95 % of the criminal cases in England and Wales and Northern Ireland . With more serious offences , magistrates are responsible for indictment and committal to the Crown Court ( a task in former times dealt with by a grand jury ) . Magistrates also have a civil jurisdiction , such as a family jurisdiction . Although they had a licensing jurisdiction dealing liquor , betting and clubs licensing applications , this was transferred under the Licensing Act 2003 to local authorities . The magistrates now act in licensing matters only as an appeal court from the decisions of the local authority . Cardiff Magistrates ' Court is the only court in the country which deals with offences under the Companies Act , such as for late filing of accounts or directors ' offences . Westminster Magistrates ' Court has special responsibilities for dealing with all terrorism and extradition offences throughout the UK . Until the Courts Act 2003 came into force , magistrates were tied to a particular area ( see magistrates ' courts committee , commission area , petty sessions area ) . This has now been changed such that they are assigned to local justice areas , but less strongly . The Courts Act provides the current framework for appointment of the justices , which is done by the Lord Chancellor in the name of sovereign . Justices can also be removed by the same mechanism . District judges ( magistrates ' court ) -- previously known as stipendiary magistrates -- must have a seven years ' general legal qualification , and are appointed by the sovereign on the advice of the Lord Chancellor . Before 1714 , magistrates were liable to be approached at any time and in any place by people legally recognised as paupers , appealing for aid if parish authorities refused to provide any . It was relatively common for these magistrates to write out , on the spot , an order requiring aid to be granted . Scotland ( edit ) See also : Judiciary of Scotland Within the Scottish legal system justices of the peace are lay magistrates who currently sit in the justice of the peace courts . These courts were introduced in 2009 as a replacement for the district courts ( established in 1975 ) , which in turn replaced burgh police courts . Justices sit alone or in threes with a qualified legal assessor as convener or clerk of court . They handle many cases of breaches of the peace , drunkenness , minor assaults , petty theft , and offences under the Civic Government ( Scotland ) Act 1982 . The maximum sentencing power of a justice of the peace is 60 days imprisonment , or a fine up to £ 2,500 , or both , and the ability to disqualify drivers . In 2006 , the Scottish Government announced its intention to unify the management of the sheriff and district courts in Scotland , but retaining lay justices , as part of its initiative to create a unified judiciary under the Lord President . Following the passage of the Criminal Proceedings etc . ( Reform ) ( Scotland ) Act 2007 the justice of the peace courts were implemented on a sheriffdom - by - sheriffdom basis . In Glasgow , the volume of business required the employment of three solicitors as `` stipendiary magistrates '' who sat in place of the lay justices . The stipendiary magistrates ' court had the same sentencing power as the summary sheriff court in summary proceedings , which was the ability to sentence an offender to up to 1 year in prison or fine them up to £ 10,000 . Stipendiary magistrates were replaced by summary sheriffs . Northern Ireland ( edit ) In Northern Ireland , the situation initially continued as it had in pre-1922 Ireland . However , justices of the peace no longer sat out of petty sessions after 1935 ( Summary Jurisdiction and Criminal Justice Act ( Northern Ireland ) 1935 ) . Since then , magistrates ' courts in Northern Ireland have consisted of legally qualified resident magistrates ( now known as district judges ( magistrates ' courts ) ) sitting alone , except in cases involving children , where two lay panelists sat with the magistrate . Justices of the peace were confined to the power to conduct committal hearings , bind persons over to the peace , sign warrants , summons , and other official documents . They were appointed by the Lord Chancellor on the recommendation of a committee in each county court division . The Justice ( Northern Ireland ) Act 2002 introduced a new office of lay magistrate , to sit alongside resident magistrates at magistrates ' courts in certain matters . Unlike in England and Wales , `` lay magistrate '' is the official title of the position , to distinguish from existing justices of the peace who do not sit in the magistrates ' courts . The first lay magistrates were appointed in 2005 . Two lay magistrates sit with the district judge ( magistrates ' court ) in criminal proceedings involving children ( replacing the former lay panelists ) and Family Proceedings Court matters . The district judge ( magistrates ' court ) , who is a barrister or solicitor of at least seven years standing , presides over the bench . Most criminal justice functions of JPs were transferred to lay magistrates . It is expected that there will be no further appointments of justices of the peace in Northern Ireland , although those already appointed retain the title and any functions not transferred to lay magistrate under the 2002 Act . United states ( edit ) In some US states , the justice of the peace is a judge of a court of limited jurisdiction , a magistrate , or a quasi-judicial official with certain statutory or common law magisterial powers . Some states have special qualifications or unique features for the office . The justice of the peace typically presides over a court that hears misdemeanor cases , traffic violations , and other petty criminal infractions . The justice of the peace may also have authority over cases involving small debts , landlord and tenant disputes , or other small claims court proceedings . Proceedings before justices of the peace are often faster and less formal than the proceedings in other courts . In some jurisdictions a party convicted or found liable before a justice of the peace may have the right to a trial de novo before the judge of a higher court rather than an appeal strictly considered . A justice of the peace also performs civil marriages . Arizona ( edit ) A justice of the peace has the same jurisdiction as a municipal magistrate with respect to traffic and misdemeanor cases and restraining orders , though over cases whose affairs are not contained within the confines of a single municipality . Additionally , the Justice Court hears cases involving county ordinances ( ordinances enacted by the board of supervisors that apply only to unincorporated areas ) , civil lawsuits up to a limit of $10,000 , small claims cases up to $2,500 , and issues evictions , called writs of restitution ( after a forcible detainer or special detainer action ( eviction ) being successfully completed by a landlord ) . Justices of the peace , also called JPs , or Judges of the Justice Court , are elected in partisan elections for four - year terms from specific districts called precincts . They have the same authority and responsibility as all other judges in the state with respect to performing marriages , administrating oaths , adhering to the code of judicial conduct , and all aspects of justice administration . However , Arizona law does not require justices of the peace to be lawyers . Many justices of the peace are not legally trained , although all are required by the Arizona Supreme Court to complete a course at the Arizona Judicial College . As with JPs , municipal judges in Arizona are not required to be lawyers . Arkansas ( edit ) This section does not cite any sources . Please help improve this section by adding citations to reliable sources . Unsourced material may be challenged and removed . ( April 2013 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) In Arkansas , a justice of the peace is an elected official equivalent to a county commissioner or county supervisor in some other states . Arkansas JPs sit on a county quorum court , composed of 9 , 11 , 13 or 15 JPs . The quorum court is a part - time body , elected from single - member districts , that has overall responsibility for county affairs . Among their responsibilities are passing the budget , creating new ordinances ( at the misdemeanor level ) , setting property tax millage levels , and working with other elected officials . The full - time elected county administrator , who presides over the quorum court , is the county judge . Neither JPs nor the county judge have any judicial authority , though they do have the power to preside over civil marriages . Justices of the peace are elected every two years to these partisan offices . Massachusetts , Connecticut , Vermont ( edit ) Justices of the peace in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts are often called on to perform marriages and , especially same - sex marriages , which certain religious officials are not willing to oversee . Justices of the peace in Connecticut can preside over same - sex marriages . Unlike Massachusetts , Connecticut JPs are not penalized for refusing to perform such ceremonies . Justices of the peace in Connecticut , Massachusetts , and Vermont have the same general oath - giving powers as a notary public . Louisiana Are elected to serve six year terms as the judicial authority of a ward or district . Have jurisdiction in civil matters when the amount in dispute does not exceed $5,000 . Do not have jurisdiction when a title to real estate is involved , when the state or any political subdivision is a defendant , or in successions or probate matters . Can perform marriage ceremonies Minnesota ( edit ) In Minnesota , the history of justices of the peace dates back hundreds of years to a time when they were considered to be some of the most powerful officials in terms of the authority that they had to influence change in a community . In modern times though , official justices of the peace are no longer present in Minnesota , but because of their history many current officials are still referred to as justices of the peace by a vast majority of Minnesotans . For example , while the authority to perform marriages in Minnesota was once reserved almost exclusively for justices of the peace , today that authority now lies with officials such as judges , court administrators , and ordained wedding officiants Nevertheless , it remains commonplace throughout the state for each of these types of officials to be referred to as a justice of the peace in the context of marriage . Another example of a current official who is often referred to as a justice of the peace is a notary public . Their responsibilities are largely related to acting as an official witness to an event , such as the signing of an important document , which is a responsibility that was once reserved for a justice of the peace . So while justices of the peace no longer exist in Minnesota in any official capacity , there are certainly some officials who can relate to being referred to as a justice of the peace simply due to the functions they perform . New York ( edit ) Justice courts are courts in New York State that handle traffic tickets , criminal matters , small claims and local code violations such as zoning . Though justice courts constitutionally are part of the New York State Unified Court System , state law generally makes justice courts independent of New York 's Office of Court Administration ( OCA ) and instead makes Justice Courts the responsibility of their sponsoring localities . Town justice courts are often called Town Court , and village justice courts are often called Village Court . City courts in New York State handle mostly the same types of cases but are not justice courts . The official title for judges in Justice Courts is Justice , the same as in New York Supreme Court . However , in common usage , most people , including lawyers , call them Judge . Justices in Justice Court do not have to be lawyers . The vast majority are not . Many of these courts are in small towns and villages where none of the residents are lawyers . In the larger towns , the justices are almost always lawyers . While Justices and their court clerks receive training from OCA , there is tremendous variability in how cases are handled . This includes court procedures and substantive results . Some courts will dismiss a traffic ticket if the officer does not appear for a trial , while others will adjourn the matter to give the officer another chance . In some courts the police prosecute their own tickets , while in others an Assistant District Attorney from the county or a town or village attorney will prosecute the tickets . This may even vary by the type of officer , with State Troopers and Deputies prosecuting their tickets and a town attorney prosecuting tickets written by the town police . Larger towns can have very busy caseloads , including several sessions a week with dozens of cases at each session , and people may have to wait hours before their cases are heard . In some small towns the caseload is extremely light , and a court might meet once a month and have only a few cases . All criminal prosecutions that occur in towns and villages are commenced in a justice court . Misdemeanors are handled exclusively in the justice court , while felonies generally move up to County Court before the case moves forward . Similar matters in some places outside New York are handled by a justice of the peace . New Hampshire ( edit ) New Hampshire justices of the peace are commissioned magisterial officers , appointed by the Governor and Executive Council to terms of five years , with the power to administer oaths , acknowledge instruments , perform marriage ceremonies and , effective January 1 , 2008 , solemnize civil unions for same - sex couples . They may also order compulsory mental examinations for good cause , act as a magisterial official regarding enforcement complaints on orders for isolation or quarantine issued by the Commissioner of Health and Human Services , administer oaths of office to public officials , take depositions and issue subpoenas . New Hampshire justices of the peace are also authorized , upon a showing of probable cause supported by affidavit , to issue arrest warrants , search warrants , administrative inspection warrants and by court appointment , to fix and receive bail in criminal cases . Texas ( edit ) In Texas , JP 's are elected on a partisan ballot every four years . Texas does not require a JP to be an attorney in good standing . However , JP 's are required to be `` well versed in the law '' and take mandatory classes to retain their office . New JP 's are required to take 80 hours of legal state mandated classes the first year , and 20 hours each year thereafter during their tenure in office . Sections 18 and 19 of Article V of the Texas Constitution , as well as Chapters 27 and 28 of the Texas Government Code , outline the duties of these Courts and their officers . Under Section 18 , the number of JP 's ( and associated constables ) is dependent on the size of the county : For counties with populations less than 18,000 ( as determined by the census ) , the entire county shall be one JP precinct , unless the Commissioners ' Court determines that more are needed , in which case the court can divide the county into no more than four JP precincts . For counties with populations at least 18,000 but less than 50,000 , the number of JP precincts shall be no less than two nor more than eight . For counties with populations 50,000 or greater , the number of JP precincts shall be no less than four nor more than eight . In any county with population less than 150,000 , if any precinct contains a city with 18,000 or more population , that precinct shall have two JP 's . In any county with population 150,000 or greater , each JP precinct may have more than one JP . Special provisions apply to Chambers and Randall counties ( must have no fewer than two nor more than six precincts ) and to Mills , Reagan , and Roberts ( the Constable office is abolished , with the Sheriff 's office performing all duties ) . Section 19 sets forth the minimum jurisdiction of the JP court : Original jurisdiction in `` criminal matters of misdemeanor cases punishable by fine only '' ( under the Texas Penal Code such offenses are called `` Class C '' misdemeanors , generally involving traffic offenses or public intoxication ; however , in jurisdictions with a municipal court , if the traffic offense is written by a municipal police officer the municipal court will have jurisdiction , whereas if the offense is written by a state or county officer the JP court will hear the case ) , Exclusive jurisdiction in `` civil matters where the amount in controversy is $200 or less '' , and `` Such other jurisdiction as may be provided by law '' . Under this provision , the Legislature has raised the top limit on civil matters to $10,000 and assigned the JP courts , among others , the right to hear cases involving eviction as well as cases involving foreclosure and liens against personal property where the amount falls within the ( revised ) JP Court 's jurisdiction . JP cases are appealed to the county court level ; the appeal results in a trial de novo . In criminal cases , cases beginning in justice court can not be appealed beyond the county level court unless the fine is more than $100 or a constitutional matter is asserted . In smaller counties without a coroner , the JP has the duty to perform inquests . The JP is also called out for any unattended deaths in the county . A JP in a large precinct in a large county will work 5 days a week , 8 or more hours daily . Their duties will include , but are not necessarily limited to the following : Trials of civil matters , both to a 6 - person jury and to the bench , with an amount in controversy not exceeding $10,000.00 . Trials of criminal matters involving traffic violations and class C misdemeanors punishable by fine only . Pre-trial motion dockets and show cause hearings are held , and all discovery must be approved by the Judge in advance in civil cases . All criminal matters are controlled by the rules of criminal procedure and evidence . A much more restricted and smaller set of rules apply in civil matters unless in the Judges discretion , it is believed to be in the best interests of justice to apply the standard rules of evidence and procedure . The court has the exclusive jurisdiction of evictions . A Texas JP Judge will also magistrate prisoners and set bail . The Judge will hear juvenile violations such as truancy , and underage drinking and smoking . Warrants of Arrest , Alias , Search and Capias Profine are issued . Protective Orders can issue and result in jail time if violated . Several administrative matters are heard including the finding of a Dangerous Dog , Occupational Drivers License and tow hearings . Many writs are issued such as writs of re-entry to apartments , possession of realty and to reinstate utilities a landlord may have turned off . A JP has contempt power of $100 and up to 3 days in jail per occurrence . A JP is also authorized to perform marriage ceremonies . Replacement with other courts ( edit ) In many states , the office of justice of the peace has been abolished or transferred to another court , such as the magistrate court . In larger cities , cases may be heard in a municipal court which has jurisdiction only within that city . Most efforts to abolish the office of justice of the peace have been led by the American Bar Association , which views non-lawyer judges as no longer necessary , as there are now far more persons with formal legal education than in the past when justices of the peace were first used . California formerly had justice of the peace courts staffed by lay judges , but began phasing them out after a landmark 1974 decision in which the Supreme Court of California unanimously held that it was a violation of federal due process ( under the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution ) to allow a non-lawyer to preside over a criminal trial which could result in incarceration of the defendant . The court specifically recognized that in the aftermath of Gideon v. Wainwright ( 1963 ) , it made no sense to allow a case to be tried before a layperson incapable of understanding the legal arguments of the attorney to whom the defendant was entitled under Gideon . The remaining justice courts ( as well as municipal courts ) were eliminated by the passage of Proposition 220 in June 1998 , which merged all lower courts within the state judicial branch into the superior courts ( the courts of general jurisdiction ) . Under current California law , all California judges must be licensed attorneys . Notably , the Supreme Court of the United States sharply disagreed with California 's analysis of the Fourteenth Amendment in the landmark case of North v. Russell , 427 U.S. 328 ( 1976 ) , in which the court held that Kentucky 's use of nonlawyer judges in its police courts was not a violation of the Fourteenth Amendment guarantees of due process and equal protection of the laws .

49th Academy Awards - wikipedia 49th Academy Awards Jump to : navigation , search 49th Academy Awards Date March 28 , 1977 Site Dorothy Chandler Pavilion Los Angeles , California , U.S. Hosted by Richard Pryor Ellen Burstyn Jane Fonda Warren Beatty Produced by William Friedkin Directed by Marty Pasetta Highlights Best Picture Rocky Most awards All the President 's Men and Network ( 4 ) Most nominations Network and Rocky ( 10 ) TV in the United States Network ABC Duration 3 hours , 38 minutes ← 48th Academy Awards 50th → The 49th Academy Awards were presented Monday , March 28 , 1977 , at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in Los Angeles , California . The ceremonies were presided over by Richard Pryor , Ellen Burstyn , Jane Fonda , and Warren Beatty . This Academy Awards ceremony is notable for Peter Finch becoming the first posthumous winner of an Oscar for acting , a feat matched only by fellow Australian Heath Ledger 32 years later ; Finch had suffered a fatal heart attack in mid-January . Beatrice Straight set another record by becoming the actor with the shortest performance ever in a film to win an acting Oscar , with only five minutes and two seconds of screen - time in Network . Network , along with All the President 's Men , were the two biggest champs of the ceremony with four Oscars each , but Best Picture and Best Director ultimately went to Rocky . Piper Laurie was nominated for Best Supporting Actress for Carrie ( 1976 ) , her first role since her Best Actress - nominated performance in The Hustler ( 1961 ) , thus being nominated for two consecutive roles , fifteen years apart . Network became the second film ( after A Streetcar Named Desire ) to win three acting Oscars , and the last , as of the 90th Academy Awards , to receive five acting nominations . It was also the eleventh of fifteen films ( to date ) to receive nominations in all four acting categories . This year 's Academy Awards is also notable for the first ever female nominee for Best Director , Lina Wertmüller for Seven Beauties . To date , four further female directors have been nominated : Jane Campion for The Piano in 1993 , Sofia Coppola for Lost in Translation in 2003 , Kathryn Bigelow for The Hurt Locker in 2009 ( the first to win the award ) , and Greta Gerwig for Lady Bird in 2017 . Barbra Streisand received her second Academy Award , composing music for the love theme `` Evergreen '' , the first woman to be honored as a composer . No honorary awards were given this year . ABC had the Oscars from 1960 -- 70 and had regained them for 1976 .

Melbourne Cup - Wikipedia Melbourne Cup Jump to : navigation , search For the most recent occurrence of the race , see 2017 Melbourne Cup . Melbourne Cup Group I race Engraving of the finish line at the 1881 Melbourne Cup Location Flemington Racecourse Melbourne , Victoria , Australia Inaugurated 1861 ( List of Melbourne Cup winners ) Race type Thoroughbred -- Flat racing Sponsor Emirates Airline Website Flemington Racecourse Race information Distance 3,200 metres ( 2.0 miles ) Surface Turf Track Left - handed Qualification Three - year - olds and up Weight Handicap Purse A $ 6,200,000 ( 2017 ) The Melbourne Cup is Australia 's most prestigious annual Thoroughbred horse race . It is a 3,200 metre race for three - year - olds and over , conducted by the Victoria Racing Club on the Flemington Racecourse in Melbourne , Victoria as part of the Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival . It is the richest `` two - mile '' handicap in the world , and one of the richest turf races . The event starts at 3pm on the first Tuesday in November and is known locally as `` the race that stops a nation '' . The Melbourne Cup has a long tradition with the first race held in 1861 over two miles ( 3.219 km ) but was shortened to 3,200 metres ( 1.988 mi ) in 1972 when Australia adopted the metric system . This reduced the distance by 18.688 metres ( 61.312 ft ) , and Rain Lover 's 1968 race record of 3 : 19.1 was accordingly adjusted to 3 : 17.9 . The present record holder is the 1990 winner Kingston Rule with a time of 3 : 16.3 .

The minimum handicap weight is 50 kg . There is no maximum weight , but the top allocated weight must not be less than 57 kg . The weight allocated to each horse is declared by the VRC Handicapper in early September . The Melbourne Cup race is a handicap contest in which the weight of the jockey and riding gear is adjusted with ballast to a nominated figure . Older horses carry more weight than younger ones , and weights are adjusted further according to the horse 's previous results . Weights were theoretically calculated to give each horse an equal winning chance in the past , but in recent years the rules were adjusted to a `` quality handicap '' formula where superior horses are given less severe weight penalties than under pure handicap rules . Weight penalties ( edit ) After the declaration of weights for the Melbourne Cup , the winner of any handicap flat race of the advertised value of A $55,000 or over to the winner , or an internationally recognised Listed , Group , or Graded handicap flat race , shall carry such additional weight ( if any ) , for each win , as the VRC Handicapper shall determine . Fees ( edit ) Entries for the Melbourne Cup usually close during the first week of August . The initial entry fee is $600 per horse . Around 300 to 400 horses are nominated each year , but the final field is limited to 24 starters . Following the allocation of weights , the owner of each horse must on four occasions before the race in November , declare the horse as an acceptor and pay a fee . First acceptance is $960 , second acceptance is $1,450 and third acceptance is $2,420 . The final acceptance fee , on the Saturday prior to the race , is $45,375 . Should a horse be balloted out of the final field , the final declaration fee is refunded . Balloting conditions ( edit ) The race directors retain the absolute discretion to exclude any horse from the race , or exempt any horse from the ballot on the race , but in order to reduce the field to the safety limit of 24 , horses are balloted out based on a number of factors which include : prize money earned in the previous two years , wins or placings in certain lead - up races allocated handicap weight The winner of the following races are exempt from any ballot : Lexus Stakes ( formerly Saab Quality and registered as The Hotham Handicap ) LKS Mackinnon Stakes ( until 2015 ) Cox Plate Caulfield Cup The Bart Cummings ( from 2015 ) Doncaster Cup ( UK ) Irish St. Leger ( IRE ) Tenno Sho ( Spring ) ( JPN ) Sankei Sho All Comers ( JPN ) Arlington Million ( USA ) San Juan Capistrano Handicap ( USA ) Australian Stayers Challenge The limitation of 24 starters is stated explicitly to be for safety reasons . However , in the past far larger numbers were allowed - the largest field ever raced was 39 runners in 1890 . Quarantine ( edit ) International horses ( New Zealand not included ) that are entered for the Melbourne Cup must undergo quarantine in an approved premises in their own country for a minimum period of 14 days before travelling to Australia . The premises must meet the Australian Government Standards . The Werribee International Horse Centre at Werribee racecourse is the Victorian quarantine station for international horses competing in the Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival . The facility has stabling for up to 24 horses in five separate stable complexes and is located 32 km from the Melbourne CBD . Prize money and trophies ( edit ) Prize money ( edit ) The total prize money for the 2017 race is A $ 6,200,000 , plus trophies valued at $175,000 . The first 10 past the post receive prizemoney , with the winner being paid $3.6 million , second $900,000 , third $450,000 , fourth $250,000 , fifth $175,000 , with sixth through to tenth place earning $125,000 . Prizemoney is distributed to the connections of each horse in the ratio of 85 percent to the owner , 10 percent to the trainer and 5 percent to the jockey . The 1985 Melbourne Cup , won by `` What a Nuisance '' , was the first race run in Australia with prize money of $1 million . The Cup currently has a $500,000 bonus for the owner of the winner if it has also won the group one Irish St. Leger run the previous September .

The winner of the first Melbourne Cup in 1861 received a gold watch . The first Melbourne Cup trophy was awarded in 1865 and was an elaborate silver bowl on a stand that had been manufactured in England . The first existing and un-altered Melbourne Cup is from 1866 , presented to the owners of The Barb ; as of 2013 , it is in the National Museum of Australia . The silver trophy presented in 1867 , now also in the National Museum of Australia , was also made in England but jewellers in Victoria complained to the Victorian Racing Club that the trophy should have been made locally . They believed the work of Melbournian , William Edwards , to be superior in both design and workmanship to the English made trophy . No trophy was awarded to the Melbourne Cup winner for the next eight years . In 1876 Edward Fischer , an immigrant from Austria , produced the first Australian - made trophy . It was an Etruscan shape with two handles . One side depicted a horse race with the grandstand and hill of Flemington in the background . The opposite side had the words `` Melbourne Cup , 1876 '' and the name of the winning horse . A silver - plated base sporting three silver horses was added in 1888 , but in 1891 the prize changed to being a 15 - inch - high ( 380 mm ) , 24 - inch - long ( 610 mm ) trophy showing a Victory figure offering an olive wreath to a jockey . From 1899 the trophy was in the form of silver galloping horse embossed on a 3 - foot - long ( 0.91 m ) plaque , although it was said to look like a greyhound by some people . The last Melbourne Cup trophy manufactured in England was made for the 1914 event . It was a chalice centred on a long base which had a horse at each end . The trophy awarded in 1916 , the first gold trophy , was a three - legged , three - armed rose bowl . The three - handled loving cup design was first awarded in 1919 . In that year the Victorian Racing Club had commissioned James Steeth to design a trophy that would be in keeping with the prestige of the race , little realising that it would become the iconic Melbourne Cup still presented today . In the Second World War years ( 1942 , 1943 and 1944 ) the winning owner received war bonds valued at 200 pounds . A new trophy is struck each year and becomes the property of the winning owner . In the event of a dead heat a second cup is on hand . The present trophy is hand spun from 1.65 kg of 18 - carat gold . The winning trainer and jockey also receive a miniature replica of the cup ( since 1973 ) and the strapper is awarded the Tommy Woodcock Trophy , named after the strapper of Phar Lap . Melbourne Cup tour ( edit ) In 2003 an annual tour of the Melbourne Cup trophy was initiated to provide communities across Australia and New Zealand with an opportunity to view the Cup trophy and highlight the contribution the Melbourne Cup has made to the Australia 's social , sporting and racing culture . Each year , communities in Australia and New Zealand apply for the cup to tour to their community and the tour also takes in cities around the world as part of the Victoria Racing Club 's strategy to promote the Melbourne Cup and the Melbourne Cup Carnival internationally . The Tour has visited schools and aged - care and hospital facilities , and participated in community events and celebrations including race days across Australia and New Zealand . History ( edit ) Early years ( edit ) Frederick Standish , member of the Victorian Turf Club and steward on the day of the first Cup , was credited with forming the idea to hold a horse race and calling it the `` Melbourne Cup '' . Seventeen horses contested the first Melbourne Cup on Thursday 7 November 1861 , racing for the modest prize of 710 gold sovereigns ( £ 710 ) cash and a hand - beaten gold watch , winner takes all . The prize was not , as some have suggested , the largest purse up to that time . A large crowd of 4,000 men and women watched the race , although it has been suggested this was less than expected because of news reaching Melbourne of the death of explorers Burke and Wills five days earlier on 2 November . Nevertheless , the attendance was the largest at Flemington on any day for the past two years , with the exception of the recently run Two Thousand Guinea Stakes . The winner of this first Melbourne Cup race was a 16.3 hand bay stallion by the name of Archer in a time of 3.52. 00 , ridden by John Cutts , trained by Etienne de Mestre , and leased ( and consequently raced in his own name ) by de Mestre . As a lessee de Mestre `` owned '' and was fully responsible for Archer during the lease . Archer was leased from the `` Exeter Farm '' of Jembaicumbene near Braidwood , New South Wales . His owners were Thomas John `` Tom '' Roberts ( a good school - friend of de Mestre 's ) , Rowland H. Hassall ( Roberts ' brother - in - law ) , and Edmund Molyneux Royds and William Edward Royds ( Roberts ' nephews ) . The inaugural Melbourne Cup of 1861 was an eventful affair when one horse bolted before the start , and three of the seventeen starters fell during the race , two of which died . Archer , a Sydney `` outsider '' who drew scant favour in the betting , spread - eagled the field and defeated the favourite , and Victorian champion , Mormon by six lengths . Dismissed by the bookies , Archer took a lot of money away from Melbourne , ' refuelling interstate rivalry ' and adding to the excitement of the Cup . The next day , Archer was raced in and won another 2 mile long distance race , the Melbourne Town Plate . It has become legend that Archer walked over 800 km ( over 500 miles ) to Flemington from de Mestre 's stable at `` Terara '' near Nowra , New South Wales . However , newspaper archives of the day reveal that he had travelled south from Sydney to Melbourne on the steamboat City Of Melbourne , together with de Mestre , and two of de Mestre 's other horses Exeter and Inheritor . Before being winched aboard the steamboat for the trip to Melbourne , the horses had arrived in Sydney in September 1861 . Archer travelled to Melbourne by steamboat again the following year ( 1862 ) to run in the second Melbourne Cup . This time he won 810 gold sovereigns ( £ 810 ) cash and a gold watch before a crowd of 7,000 , nearly twice the size of the previous years large crowd in a time of 3.47. 00 , taking to two the number of Melbourne Cup wins by this horse . Archer had already won the 1862 AJC Queen Elizabeth Stakes in Randwick , Sydney , and returned to win his second Melbourne Cup carrying 10 stone 2 pounds . He defeated a field of twenty starters by eight lengths , a record that has never been beaten , and that was not matched for over 100 years . Mormon again running second . Winning the Melbourne Cup twice was a feat not repeated until more than seventy years later when Peter Pan won the race in 1932 and 1934 , and winning the Melbourne Cup two years in a row was a feat not repeated until more than 30 years later when Rain Lover won in 1968 and 1969 . Archer travelled to Melbourne by steamboat yet again the next year ( 1863 ) . Despite his weight of 11 stone 4 pounds , Archer would have contested the third cup in 1863 , but due to a Victorian public holiday trainer Etienne de Mestre 's telegraphed acceptance form arrived late , and Archer was scratched on a technicality . In protest of this decision and in a show of solidarity , many of de Mestre 's owners boycotted the third race and scratched their horses in sympathy . As a result , the Melbourne Cup of that year ran with only 7 starters , the smallest number in the history of the Cup . In 1865 , Adam Lindsay Gordon wrote a verse in which the Melbourne Cup winner was called Tim Whiffler . Two years later in 1867 two horses with the name Tim Whiffler ran in the Melbourne Cup . ( The year before in 1866 two horses with the same name , Falcon , also ran in the Melbourne Cup . ) To distinguish between the two Tim Whifflers they were called `` Sydney '' Tim Whiffler and `` Melbourne '' Tim Whiffler . `` Sydney '' Tim Whiffler actually won the Cup . He was trained by Etienne de Mestre , and like Archer before him raced in de Mestre 's name but was leased from the `` Exeter Farm '' . As early as 1865 , Cup day was a half - holiday in Melbourne for public servants and bank officials . Various businesses also closed at lunchtime . It took some years before the purpose of the declared holiday was acknowledged in the Victoria Government Gazette . The Gazette of 31 October 1873 announced that the following Thursday ( Cup Day ) be observed as a bank and civil ( public ) service holiday . The Melbourne Cup was first run on a Tuesday in 1875 , the first Tuesday in that month . On 7 November 1876 , the three - year - old filly , Briseis , owned and trained by James Wilson Snr. , won in a time of 3.36. 25 . Briseis then went on to create a record that is never likely to be equalled , winning the VRC Derby , the Melbourne Cup and the VRC Oaks in the space of six days . She was ridden in the Melbourne Cup by the tiny featherweight figure of jockey Peter St. Albans . In 1876 at the recorded age thirteen ( he was actually twelve , being 8 days short of his thirteenth birthday ) , Peter St. Albans is also the youngest person ever to win a Melbourne Cup . Before 75,000 at Flemington Briseis , with St Albans in the saddle , comfortably won by 1 length in the biggest field of all time . `` At 4 o'clock the starter released the 33 runners and they swept down the long Flemington straight in a thundering rush . Briseis , ridden by what one writer termed a mere child , ( in the Cup ) captured a rare double , the Victoria Race Club Derby and the Melbourne Cup . Shouts and hurrahs were heard , hats were thrown in the air and one excited individual fell on his back in the attempt to do a somersault . The boy who rode the winner was carried around the pack and is the hero of the day , '' reported the `` Australasian Sketcher '' in 1876 . Both Peter St. Albans and Briseis have now become racing legends , and Briseis is regarded as one of the greatest mares foaled in Australia . Briseis was n't the only sensation surrounding the 1876 Melbourne Cup . Two months before the event , on Saturday 9 September , the City of Melbourne sailed for Melbourne from Sydney with a cargo including 13 racehorses , many of whom were considered serious contenders for the Melbourne Cup . The following day the ship ran into a savage storm and was hit by several rogue waves , with Nemesis ( the winner of the 1876 AJC Metropolitan Handicap in Randwick , Sydney and favourite for the Cup , owned by John Moffat ) and Robin Hood ( another favourite , owned by Etienne de Mestre ) being among the 11 horses that were killed . Betting on the big race was paralysed . To the dismay and anger of the public , bookmakers , showing no feeling , presented a purse ( loaded with coins ) to the captain as token of their appreciation for his part in saving them many thousands of pounds in bets already laid on the favourites who had perished . Perhaps they should have kept their money , however . The outsider Briseis comfortably won by 1 length in the biggest field of all time , and in an extremely good time , so it is unlikely that the horses who perished could have beaten her . 1877 is also the year that the trainer Etienne de Mestre won his fourth Melbourne Cup with Chester owned by Hon . James White . In 1878 , as in previous years De Mestre fielded more than one horse . He entered the favourite Firebell ( owned by W.S. Cox ) who finished last , Chester ( owned by Hon . James White ) the previous year 's winner who fell , and Calamia ( owned by de Mestre ) who , though less fancied , won easily by two lengths . First prize was £ 1,790 , the crowd was 80,000 and there were 30 starters . De Mestre 's 1878 win with Calamia brought to 5 the number of Melbourne Cups he had won . This record was not to be matched for nearly 100 years when the trainer Bart Cummings won his fifth Melbourne Cup in 1975 . Bart Cummings , regarded as the best Australian horse trainer of all time , went on to win 12 Melbourne Cups to 2008 . Martini - Henry , the 1883 Melbourne Cup winner In 1883 , the hardy New Zealand bred , Martini - Henry won the VRC Derby , the Melbourne Cup and on the following Monday retained his undefeated record by winning Mares ' Produce Stakes . Phar Lap winning the Melbourne Cup Race from Second Wind and Shadow King on 5 November 1930 . Phar Lap , the most famous horse in the world of his day , won the 1930 Melbourne Cup at 11 / 8 odds on , the shortest priced favourite in the history of the race . He had to be hidden away at Geelong before the race after an attempt was made to shoot him and only emerged an hour before the race time of the Cup . Phar Lap also competed in 1929 and 1931 , but came 3rd and 8th respectively , despite heavy favouritism in both years . There are a few legends of the first Aboriginal jockey to ride a Melbourne Cup . It was believed to be John Cutts who won the first and second cups in 1861 and 1862 riding Archer . He was reputedly an Aboriginal stockman born in the area where Archer was trained , but was actually John ' Cutts ' Dillon , the son of a Sydney clerk , a jockey who rode for many trainers in his long career , and who was one of the best known , best liked and most respected jockeys in New South Wales . It is thought that Peter St. Albans was the first Aboriginal jockey to win the cup , on Briseis in 1876 . Because St. Albans was not quite 13 years old , the jockey was too young to ride in the cup . Thus , to allow him to race Briseis in the Cup , it was argued his birthdate and parents were unknown , and from this the legend of him being Aboriginal grew . Both these legends , however , can definitely be disproved , and history had to wait nearly another 100 years . The first jockey of Indigenous heritage to ride a Melbourne Cup winner was Frank Reys in 1973 on Gala Supreme , who had a Filipino father and a half - Aboriginal mother . Recent years ( edit ) Wikinews has related news : Delta Blues wins 2006 Melbourne Cup Makybe Diva wins the Melbourne Cup Efficient wins Melbourne Cup Viewed wins the 2008 Melbourne Cup The race has undergone several alterations in recent years , the most visible being the entry of many foreign - trained horses . Most have failed to cope with the conditions ; the three successful `` foreign raids '' include two by Irish trainer Dermot K. Weld successful in 1993 and 2002 , and one in 2006 by Katsumi Yoshida of Japan 's renowned Yoshida racing and breeding family . The attraction for foreigners to compete was , primarily , the low - profile change to the new `` quality handicap '' weighting system . The 1910 Melbourne Cup was won by Comedy King , the first foreign bred horse to do so . Subsequent foreign bred horses to win Cup were Backwood 1924 ; Phar Lap 1930 ; Wotan 1936 Belldale Ball 1980 ; At Talaq 1986 ; Kingston Rule 1990 ; Vintage Crop 1993 ; Jeune 1994 ; Media Puzzle 2002 ; Makybe Diva 2003 , 2004 , 2005 ; Americain 2010 and Dunaden 2011 . The 1938 Melbourne Cup was won by trainer Mrs. Allan McDonald , who conditioned Catalogue . Mrs McDonald was a successful trainer in New Zealand , however , at the time women were not allowed to compete as trainers in Australia so her husband 's name was officially recorded as the winning trainer . The 2001 edition was won by New Zealand mare Ethereal , trained by Sheila Laxon , the first woman to formally train a Melbourne Cup winner . She also won the Caulfield Cup , a 2,400 metre race also held in Melbourne , and therefore has won the `` Cups Double '' . Maree Lyndon became the first female to ride in the Melbourne Cup , when she partnered Argonaut Style in 1987 , in which she ran second last in the 21 horse field . In 2004 , Makybe Diva became the first mare to win two cups , and also the first horse to win with different trainers , after David Hall moved to Hong Kong and transferred her to the Lee Freedman stables . The 2005 Melbourne Cup was held before a crowd of 106,479 . Makybe Diva made history by becoming the only horse to win the race three times . Trainer Lee Freedman said after the race , `` Go and find the youngest child on the course , because that 's the only person here who will have a chance of seeing this happen again in their lifetime . '' Due to the 2007 Australian Equine influenza outbreak , believed to have been started by a horse brought into Australia from Japan , neither Delta Blues nor Pop Rock participated in the 2007 Melbourne Cup . Both horses had been stabled in Japan . Corowa , NSW trained `` Leica Falcon '' also was not be permitted to race in Victoria , despite Corowa being close to the Victorian border . Leica Falcon was ordained as the new staying star of Australian racing in 2005 when he ran fourth in both the Caulfield Cup and in Makybe Diva 's famous third Melbourne Cup victory . But serious leg injuries saw the horse not race for another 20 months . Efficient , the previous year 's VRC Derby winner , won the race . In 2013 , Damien Oliver returned from an eight - month ban , after betting against his own mount at a previous race meet , to win his 3rd Melbourne cup . 180 degree panorama of the racecourse Timeline of Notable events ( edit ) 1861 - The very first Melbourne Cup was held with 17 runners .

Cup favourite Admire Rakti , who was carrying the heaviest weight since Think Big ( 1975 ) , died of heart failure in his stall after the race , and Araldo broke his leg and had to be euthanised after being spooked by a flag in the crowd after the race . 2015 - First woman jockey to win the cup was Michelle Payne on Prince of Penzance who became only the 4th horse to win at odds of 100 - 1 .

For Federal Public Servants it is also observed as a holiday in the entire state of Victoria , and from 2007 to 2009 also in the Australian Capital Territory known as Family and Community Day replacing Picnic Day . The Melbourne cup captures the public 's imagination to the extent that people whether at work , home , school , or out and about usually stop to watch or listen to the great race . Many people from outside of Melbourne take a half or full day off work to celebrate the occasion . Many people feel that the day should be a national public holiday as Sick leave is said to increase on the day and productivity wanes . As early as 1865 , Cup day was a half - holiday in Melbourne for public servants and bank officials . Various businesses also closed at lunchtime . It took some years before the purpose of the declared holiday was acknowledged in the Victoria Government Gazette . The Gazette of 31 October 1873 announced that the following Thursday ( Cup Day ) be observed as a bank and civil ( public ) service holiday .

The record crowd was 122,736 in 2003 . The 1926 running of the Cup was the first time the 100,000 mark had been passed . Today the record at Flemington is held by the 2006 Victoria Derby when almost 130,000 attended . In 2007 , a limit was placed on the Spring Carnival attendance at Flemington Racecourse and race - goers are now required to pre-purchase tickets . Every year more and more people travel to Flemington Racecourse , in 2016 there was A 7.8 per cent increase in the number of out - of - state individuals ( 80,472 ) attending the Melbourne Cup Carnival ; 2017 - 90,536 2016 - 97,479 2015 - 101,015 2014 - 100,794 2013 - 104,169 2012 - 106,162 2011 - 105,979 2010 -- 110,223 2009 -- 102,161 2008 -- 107,280 2007 -- 102,411 2006 -- 106,691 2005 -- 106,479 2004 -- 98,161 2003 -- 122,736 ( record ) Off the track ( edit ) Finalists in Fashions On The Field at the 2013 race . Play media 1965 ABC news report on Jean Shrimpton 's visit to the Melbourne Cup . ' Fashions On The Field ' is a major focus of the day , with substantial prizes awarded for the best - dressed man and woman . The requirement for elegant hats , and more recently the alternative of a fascinator , almost single - handedly keeps Melbourne 's milliners in business . Raceday fashion has occasionally drawn almost as much attention as the race itself , The miniskirt received worldwide publicity when model Jean Shrimpton wore a white shift version of one on Derby Day during Melbourne Cup week in 1965 . Flowers , especially roses are an important component of the week 's racing at Flemington . The racecourse has around 12,000 roses within its large expanse . Over 200 varieties of the fragrant flower are nurtured by a team of up to 12 gardeners . Each of the major racedays at Flemington has an official flower . Victoria Derby Day has the Corn Flower , Melbourne Cup Day is for the Yellow Rose , Oaks Day highlights the Pink Rose and Stakes Day goes to the Red Rose . In the Melbourne metropolitan area , the race day has been a gazetted public holiday since 1877 , but around both Australia and New Zealand a majority of people watch the race on television and gamble , either through direct betting or participating in workplace cup `` sweeps '' . In 2000 , a betting agency claimed that 80 percent of the adult Australian population placed a bet on the race that year . In 2010 it was predicted that $183 million would be spent by 83,000 tourists during the Spring Racing Carnival . In New Zealand , the Melbourne Cup is the country 's single biggest betting event , with carnival race - days held at several of the country 's top tracks showing the cup live on big screens . It is commonly billed as The race that stops a nation , but it is more accurately The race that stops two nations , as many people in New Zealand , as well as Australia , pause to watch the race . The Race That Stops The Nation is a poem about Australia 's fascination with the Melbourne Cup . Sydney born writer Vivienne McCredie wrote it in 1986 . It was read out on an evening poetry radio program run by Kel Richards at the time and later published ( 2005 ISBN 978 - 0 - 9758311 - 0 - 6 ) . Copies are in the State Library of NSW and the National Library of Australia .

IV , XIV This case overturned a previous ruling or rulings Wolf v. Colorado ( 1949 ) Mapp v. Ohio , 367 U.S. 643 ( 1961 ) , was a landmark case in criminal procedure , in which the United States Supreme Court decided that evidence obtained in violation of the Fourth Amendment , which protects against `` unreasonable searches and seizures , '' may not be used in state law criminal prosecutions in state courts , as well as in federal criminal law prosecutions in federal courts as had previously been the law . The Supreme Court accomplished this by use of a principle known as selective incorporation ; in Mapp this involved the incorporation of the provisions , as interpreted by the Court , of the Fourth Amendment which are applicable only to actions of the federal government into the Fourteenth Amendment due process clause which is applicable to actions of the states .

Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources . Unsourced material may be challenged and removed . ( October 2017 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) Dollree Mapp was an employee in the illegal gambling rackets dominated by Cleveland rackets kingpin Shon Birns . On May 23 , 1957 , police officers in Cleveland , Ohio , received an anonymous tip by phone that Virgil Ogletree , a numbers operator who was wanted for questioning in the bombing of rival numbers racketeer and future boxing promoter Don King 's home three days earlier , might be found at Mapp 's house , as well as illegal betting slips and equipment employed in the `` California Gold '' numbers operation set up by Mapp 's boyfriend Edward Keeling . Three officers went to the home and asked for permission to enter , but Mapp , after consulting her lawyer by telephone , refused to admit them without a search warrant . Two officers left , and one remained , watching the house from across the street . Thirteen hours later , four cars full of police arrived and knocked on the door . When she did n't answer , they forced the door . Mapp asked to see the alleged warrant and was shown a piece of paper which she snatched away from an officer , putting it inside her dress . The officers struggled with Mapp and recovered the piece of paper which was not seen by her or her lawyers again , and was not introduced as evidence in any of the ensuing court proceedings . When asked about the warrant during oral argument at the Supreme Court , the Cleveland prosecutor arguing the case cautiously deflected the question , which the court did not press . As the search of Mapp 's second - floor , 2 - bedroom apartment began , police handcuffed her for being belligerent . The police searched the house thoroughly , and discovered Ogletree , who was subsequently cleared on the bombing charge , hiding in the apartment of the downstairs tenant , Minerva Tate . In the search of Mapp 's apartment and in a footlocker in the basement of the house police found a quantity of `` California Gold '' betting slips and paraphernalia . They also found a pistol and a small quantity of pornographic books and pictures which Mapp stated a previous tenant named Morris Jones had left behind . Mapp was arrested , charged , and cleared on a misdemeanor charge of possessing numbers paraphernalia ; but several months later , after she refused to testify against Shon Birns , Edward Keeling and their associates at their trial that October for the attempted shakedown of Don King , she was prosecuted for possession of the books , found guilty at a 1958 trial of `` knowingly having had in her possession and under her control certain lewd and lascivious books , pictures , and photographs in violation of 2905.34 of Ohio 's Revised Code '' , and sentenced to one to seven years in prison . Mapp then appealed her case to the Supreme Court , on the grounds that the police had no probable cause to suspect her of having the books . She stated that the 4th Amendment should be incorporated to the state and local level . She argued that the police could n't use the books as evidence in trial because they were found without a warrant and therefore illegally recovered . Mapp is the first to call upon this law . Decision ( edit ) The U.S. Supreme Court voted 5 - 3 in favor of Mapp . The Court overturned the conviction , and five justices found that the States were bound to exclude evidence seized in violation of the 4th Amendment . This ruling officially applied the exclusionary rule to the states .

( March 2011 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) Lynne Hobbs EastEnders character Portrayed by Elaine Lordan Duration 2000 -- 2004 First appearance Episode 2003 18 September 2000 ( 2000 - 09 - 18 ) Last appearance Episode 2756 2 July 2004 ( 2004 - 07 - 02 ) Created by Tony Jordan Introduced by John Yorke Spin - off appearances Slaters in Detention ( 2003 ) Classification Former ; regular Profile Other names Lynne Slater Occupation Café worker ( show ) Family Father Charlie Slater Mother Viv Slater Sisters Kat Slater Little Mo Mitchell Belinda Peacock Husband Garry Hobbs ( 2001 -- 2004 ) Daughters Vivienne Hobbs Grandmothers Mo Harris Uncles Harry Slater Nephews Freddie Mitchell Nieces Zoe Slater Lynne Hobbs ( also Slater ) is a fictional character from the BBC soap opera EastEnders , played by Elaine Lordan from September 2000 to July 2004 . Lynne is a fierce judge of right and wrong , although she is not always able to practise what she preaches . She has a turbulent relationship with husband Garry ( Ricky Groves ) , but despite her complaints about him , it ends up being Lynne 's adultery that puts their relationship in jeopardy long before Garry strays . Contents ( hide ) 1 Storylines 1.1 Backstory 1.2 2000 -- 2004 2 Creation and development 3 In popular culture 4 References 5 External links Storylines ( edit ) Backstory ( edit ) Lynne is the eldest of the Slater sisters and she arrives in Albert Square in 2000 with her family : father Charlie ( Derek Martin ) ; sisters Kat ( Jessie Wallace ) , Little Mo ( Kacey Ainsworth ) and Zoe ( Michelle Ryan ) , and grandmother Mo ( Laila Morse ) . Unlike Little Mo and Zoe , Lynne is aware that Zoe is in fact Kat 's daughter and helps keep the family secret until Kat reveals the truth to Zoe . 2000 -- 2004 ( edit ) Lynne is in a relationship with hapless mechanic Garry Hobbs ( Ricky Groves ) and spends much of her time despairing over Garry 's inability to fully commit to their relationship . All Lynne really wants is to marry Garry , settle down and raise a family but while Garry loves Lynne , he is reluctant to lose his `` bachelor status '' and he spends much of his time dodging Lynne 's ' hints ' about marriage . However , Lynne ( and the rest of the Slaters ) wear Garry down and the two eventually get engaged . Lynne works in Ian Beale 's ( Adam Woodyatt ) café and often clashes with co-worker , Janine Butcher ( Charlie Brooks ) , who regularly slacks off work and flirts with Garry to irritate her . This culminates in Lynne eventually getting Janine fired and the two become enemies thereafter . In 2001 , Lynne becomes friends with womanising club owner Beppe di Marco ( Michael Greco ) and she often babysits his son , Joe ( Jake Kyprianou ) . Lynne and Beppe soon become attracted to each other and have sex on the eve of Lynne 's wedding to Garry . Beppe feels Garry does not deserve Lynne and tries to stop Lynne marrying him by turning up at the register office and starting a fight with Garry . Lynne is tempted but goes through with the wedding . Beppe sends Steve Owen ( Martin Kemp ) to give her a note , but he throws it away . The marriage does not go smoothly , however , and in 2002 Lynne strays again , this time with ex-lover Jason James ( Joseph Millson ) . Jason is Lynne 's ex-fiancé , who jilted her on their wedding day and fled to Dubai . After a chance meeting , the two rekindle their relationship as Jason wants to reconcile and almost persuades her to leave Garry and move away with him .

Garry forgives Lynne as he is desperate to hang onto her but the trust has gone from their relationship . In 2003 , another affair jeopardises Lynne 's marriage , but this time it is Garry who strays . Garry has drunken sex with Laura Beale ( Hannah Waterman ) and she gets pregnant . Laura 's husband , Ian , reveals to her that he has had a vasectomy so the baby can not be his and throws her out so she turns to Garry for support , thinking he is her baby 's father . Lynne has been trying for a baby and struggles to forgive Garry for having a baby with another woman , throwing him out so he moves in with Laura to support her during her pregnancy .

She survives but suffers severe abdominal pain and Garry is told that Lynne needs an emergency caesarian to save her and the baby . Terrified of losing Lynne and their daughter , Garry agrees but only Lynne survives . The baby is stillborn but Lynne also needed an emergency hysterectomy so she can not have any more children . When Lynne is told the tragic news , she is devastated and blames Garry for consenting to surgery and can not even bring herself to look at him . On the day of Vivienne 's funeral , Lynne decides that her marriage to Garry is over , feeling that life for her in Walford is simply a reminder of what she has lost . She leaves that day to go and stay with her aunt Jean and her departure leaves Garry a broken man . Lynne 's last appearance is in July 2004 . Lynne and Garry divorce and in 2007 , the Slaters hear that Lynne is engaged . In January 2011 , Charlie leaves Walford to live with Lynne . In January 2016 , Lynne attends Charlie 's funeral off - screen . Creation and development ( edit ) In 2000 , EastEnders ' executive producer John Yorke decided to introduce the `` classic '' Slater family . He felt the show needed to go back to its roots and bring back some traditional values . BBC 's head of drama , Mal Young commented , `` We do not have enough solid families in the soap , there were a lot of fractured families and people who were alone . '' The family were created as a replacement for the di Marco family , who were axed by Yorke . The family consisted of , grandmother Mo Harris ( Laila Morse ) , father Charlie ( Derek Martin ) , his four children , Lynne ( Elaine Lordan ) , Kat ( Jessie Wallace ) , Little Mo ( Kacey Ainsworth ) , Zoe ( Michelle Ryan ) , as well as Lynne 's boyfriend Garry Hobbs ( Ricky Groves ) . It later transpired that Kat was the mother of Zoe , after being raped by her uncle Harry Slater ( Michael Elphick ) . Lordan was cast in the role of Lynne after the character was developed at an improvisation session for thirty actors and actresses earlier in the year . The character was described as `` feisty '' , `` a loud mouth '' and `` lazy '' . On 15 December 2003 , it was announced that Lynne would be departing the following year . The decision was a mutual decision between Lordan and show producers and Lynne departed in July 2004 . In popular culture ( edit ) The character of Lynne Hobbs has been spoofed in the cartoon sketch show 2DTV . Also , impressionist Alistair McGowan has impersonated Lynne working in the cafe , in his comedy show , The Big Impression . References ( edit ) ^ Jump up to : `` Seven move in to Albert Square '' .

A Good Day to Die Hard - wikipedia A Good Day to Die Hard Jump to : navigation , search A Good Day to Die Hard Theatrical release poster Directed by John Moore Produced by Alex Young Wyck Godfrey Written by Skip Woods Based on Characters by Roderick Thorp Starring Bruce Willis Jai Courtney Sebastian Koch Rasha Bukvić Cole Hauser Yuliya Snigir Music by Marco Beltrami Cinematography Jonathan Sela Edited by Dan Zimmerman Production company Giant Pictures TSG Entertainment Distributed by 20th Century Fox Release date January 31 , 2013 ( 2013 - 01 - 31 ) ( Leicester Square ) February 14 , 2013 ( 2013 - 02 - 14 ) ( United States ) Running time 97 minutes Country United States Language English Russian Budget $92 million Box office $304.7 million A Good Day to Die Hard is a 2013 American action thriller film and the fifth installment in the Die Hard film series . The film was directed by John Moore and written by Skip Woods , and stars Bruce Willis as John McClane . The main plot finds McClane travelling to Russia to get his estranged son , Jack , an undercover CIA agent , out of prison . He is soon caught in the crossfire of a global terrorist plot . Alongside Willis , the film also stars Jai Courtney , Cole Hauser , Yuliya Snigir and Sebastian Koch as the film 's villain . Talks of a fifth Die Hard film began before the release of the fourth installment , Live Free or Die Hard , with Willis affirming that the latter would not be the last in the series , but pre-production did not start until September 2011 , when John Moore was officially announced as the director . Filming began in April 2012 , primarily in Budapest , Hungary . A Good Day to Die Hard premiered in Los Angeles on January 31 , 2013 , coinciding with the unveiling of a Die Hard mural at the Fox Lot , and was released in certain East and Southeast Asian countries on February 7 and in the United States and Canada on February 13 . It is the first Die Hard film to use Dolby Atmos Surround Mixing and the first to also be released in IMAX theaters . A Good Day to Die Hard was a box office success but received overwhelmingly negative reviews for its implausible action sequences , cinematography , weak plot , cliched script , and lack of characterization , although the special effects were praised . It is the first film produced by TSG Entertainment , since distributor 20th Century Fox 's departure from Dune Entertainment upon the completion of their distribution contract at the end of 2012 .

Separately , Jack McClane , who has been arrested after an assassination attempt , negotiates for a shorter sentence by offering to testify against Komarov . Meanwhile , Jack 's father , NYPD Detective John McClane , who has not been in touch with his son for several years , has learned his son is in trouble and , taken to the airport by his daughter Lucy McClane , flies to Russia to help . As John arrives and approaches the courthouse where Komarov is on trial , a bomb explosion , orchestrated by Chagarin 's henchman Alik , occurs in the courthouse and Jack breaks free with Komarov . Seeing his son , John confronts him , but their dispute is cut short as Alik and his men chase them in a US Cougar MRAP through the streets of Moscow . John , Jack , and Komarov manage to escape . Hiding in a safe house , John finds out that his son is a CIA officer and has been on an undercover operation for the past three years . Jack 's partner , Collins , demands the file 's location from Komarov so that the CIA can bring Chagarin down . Komarov eventually agrees on condition that he and his daughter are given safe passage out of Russia . Collins is eventually shot and killed while the McClanes and Komarov come under heavy gunfire from Chagarin 's men , but they escape . They make their way to a hotel in the city to fetch the key to the vault containing the file . There they meet up with Komarov 's daughter , Irina , as earlier planned . John grows suspicious of her shifty behavior , and is proven correct when Alik and his men burst in and tie John and Jack up , while Komarov is taken as a hostage , and Irina confesses to informing on them for the `` millions of dollars '' to be gained . Jack breaks free of his ties and kills the nearest guards using a Russian gun - knife , allowing the two to kill most of the men . Alik and Irina , with Komarov still their hostage , return in a Mil Mi - 24 helicopter and try to kill them , but the two escape a second time . That night , the two steal a car full of firearms and drive to Pripyat , Ukraine , where the vault with the file is located . However , Komarov , Irina , and Alik have preceded them . In a twist , the file is revealed never to have existed : the drawer with the file supposedly inside is in fact a secret passage to a Chernobyl vault containing € 1 billion worth of weapons - grade uranium . Once inside the vault , Komarov kills Alik and calls Chagarin to gloat and to listen as Chagarin is killed by a henchman of Komarov 's . At this point , John and Jack enter the vault , discover Komarov 's true plot , and capture him . Irina , with another henchman , comes to her father 's aid . As they attempt to escape , Jack follows Komarov , while John goes after Irina , who is escaping on a Mil Mi - 26 helicopter . Irina tries to protect her father by firing the helicopter 's guns at Jack . John is able to bring the helicopter out of balance by driving a truck out of the hangar section , still shackled by a chain , via the open rear ramp ; he is later thrown off into the building . Komarov remarks that Jack will get to watch his father die , prompting Jack to hurl him off the rooftop into the path of the spinning helicopter rotors , killing him . As Jack and John reunite inside the building , Irina tries to avenge her father by ramming the helicopter , now out of ammunition , into the building in a suicide attack . Father and son survive by leaping off the building into a large pool of water , as the helicopter crashes and explodes , killing Irina . In the end , the McClanes return home and reunite with Lucy on the tarmac . Cast ( edit ) Bruce Willis as John McClane Jai Courtney as John `` Jack '' McClane , Jr . Sebastian Koch as Yuri Komarov Yuliya Snigir as Irina Komarova Sergei Kolesnikov as Viktor Chagarin Radivoje Bukvić as Alik Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Lucy McClane Additional cast members include CIA operatives : Aldis Hodge as Lt. Foxy and Cole Hauser as Mike Collins . Amaury Nolasco appears as Murphy , an NYPD detective and McClane 's friend . Roman Luknár makes an apperance as Anton , a business associate of Chagarin . Ganxsta Zolee makes a brief cameo as a MRAP driver . Production ( edit ) Pre-production ( edit ) Production was formally announced in 2010 , with X-Men Origins : Wolverine and The A-Team writer Skip Woods confirmed as the film 's screenwriter . Noam Murro was originally attached to direct the film but left production to direct the 300 prequel , 300 : Rise of an Empire . John Moore was subsequently drafted in to replace him . The film was originally titled `` Die Hard 24 / 7 '' . The media speculated that the film would be a crossover between the Die Hard and 24 series , with Kiefer Sutherland to reprise his role as Jack Bauer alongside John McClane . This was never confirmed by the studio , and the film 's title was later revealed to be A Good Day to Die Hard -- with no further mention of any involvement from the 24 series -- with a release date of February 14 , 2013 . Casting ( edit ) Bruce Willis returned as John McClane , and has expressed a desire to shoot A Good Day to Die Hard and a sixth installment in the series before retiring the character . When casting the role of Jack McClane , the studios considered several actors , including Liam Hemsworth and James Badge Dale , before ultimately settling on Australian actor Jai Courtney . Mary Elizabeth Winstead also appeared in the film , reprising her role as McClane 's daughter Lucy . However all her scenes were cut from the Extended release . Sebastian Koch played the film 's primary antagonist , Yuri Komarov , while Yuliya Snigir and Cole Hauser featured as secondary characters Irina and Collins . The cast was completed by actors Amaury Nolasco as a friend of McClane , Pasha D. Lychnikoff as a taxi driver , and Megalyn Echikunwoke , Anne Vyalitsyna , and Ivan Kamaras in smaller roles . Filming ( edit ) Production began in Hungary in April 2012 , with the capital Budapest standing in for Moscow . A military shooting range near Hajmáskér was used for shooting live ammunition , while vehicular stunts were shot at the Hungaroring , a Formula One racing circuit in Mogyoród . In July 2012 , a fire broke out on the set while shooting an aerial stunt , though no one was injured and shooting resumed after a short delay . In creating the film 's visual style , Moore wanted the camera work to be almost entirely handheld , using three 4 Perforation 35mm Arri cameras equipped with long lenses to capture tight close - ups , for Moore explained , `` McClane is in a strange world , with little or no initial control over his environment . He 's unable to anticipate things as he normally might . He 's caught off guard , and we want the camera to mimic that surprise and confusion . '' Moore also chose to create as many of the film 's effects on camera as possible , only using visual effects to enhance elements or paint in backgrounds . Post-production ( edit ) A specially censored version was prepared for theatrical release in the United Kingdom , which was cut for language and violence in order to attain a 12A at the request of the distributors . The U.S. version is rated R and is uncut . The film 's audio was mixed in Dolby Atmos surround sound . In February 2013 , director Moore began work on a director 's cut , which was later released on Blu - ray .

On January 31 , 2013 , 20th Century Fox held a special tribute to the 25th anniversary of the Die Hard series by unveiling a mural of a scene from Die Hard ( 1988 ) on Sound Stage 8 of the Fox Lot . Afterward , the premiere screening of A Good Day to Die Hard was shown . Two additional premieres were held in Europe leading up to the film 's commercial release : one in Berlin , Germany on February 4 and the second in London , England on February 7 . A Good Day to Die Hard was commercially released first in Indonesia on February 6 , 2013 , and then opened in certain East and Southeast Asian territories on February 7 . In the United States and Canada , the film was distributed to 2,328 theaters for night showings on February 13 . Select theaters also held a one - time special marathon of all Die Hard films to lead up to A Good Day to Die Hard 's nationwide release , with Bruce Willis making a personal appearance at one of these marathons in New York City to thank fans . The film then expanded to a total of 3,553 theaters , including IMAX theaters , on February 14 . Reception ( edit ) On Rotten Tomatoes , the film has an approval rating of 14 % based on 219 reviews , with an average rating of 3.9 / 10 . The site 's critical consensus reads , `` A Good Day to Die Hard is the weakest entry in a storied franchise , and not even Bruce Willis ' smirking demeanor can enliven a cliched , uninspired script . '' On Metacritic , the film has a score of 28 out of 100 , based on 40 critics , indicating `` generally unfavorable reviews '' . On both websites , the film ranked lowest among the Die Hard films . Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of `` B + '' on an A+ to F scale , the lowest score of the franchise . A.O. Scott of The New York Times described A Good Day to Die Hard as `` a handful of extended set pieces -- each more elaborate and therefore somehow less exciting than the last -- linked by a simple - minded plot and a handful of half - clever lines . '' Though complimenting the special effects , he criticizes the direction of John Moore , the lack of style , and writes that `` everything that made the first Die Hard memorable -- the nuances of character , the political subtext , the cowboy wit -- has been dumbed down or scrubbed away entirely . '' Todd McCarthy of The Hollywood Reporter expressed similar sentiments , particularly of the direction , for which he says that Moore `` has directed these sequences in a way that makes the incidents look so far - fetched and essentially unsurvivable that you can only laugh '' . Kenneth Turan of the Los Angeles Times gave the film a 2 / 5 and remarked that it lacked `` inspiration '' , and that the onscreen rivalry of Willis and Courtney was `` more irritant than enticement . '' Richard Roeper , standing in for Roger Ebert on Ebert 's website , rated the film one and a half stars out of four , criticizing the implausibility of the action sequences , as well as the film 's lack of sufficient characterization for McClane and the villains as compared to the other films in the series . He says that `` McClane has been stripped of any real traces of an actual three - dimensional character , '' and that the film `` never giv ( es ) us a chance to get the least bit involved with any of these characters . '' Among the rare positive reviews , Robbie Collin for The Telegraph remarked that `` Yet even though the ride finally stalls , A Good Day To Die Hard has been thrustingly outrageous enough in its earlier moments to coast to the finish line on momentum . '' . Chris Tookey of the Daily Mail tabloid paper described the film as `` ... as stupid in its way as The Expendables 1 and Taken 2 , and nowhere near the quality of the first three Die Hards . But if you approach it as I did , in a mood for preposterous action and massive explosions , it does deliver escapist entertainment and it 's mercifully shorter than Die Hard 4 . In a week as bad as this in the cinema , it is the only new movie I would have paid to see . '' Tookey then gave the final verdict as being `` Entertaining , but dumb . '' along with a 3 / 5 star rating . Daniel M. Kimmel , writing for the New England Movies Weekly , found the film to be better than Live Free or Die Hard and states that the car chase scene `` is well worth the price of admission . '' With a 3.5 / 5 rating , Kimmel summed up his review saying , `` it 's probably a good day to end the series at last , but it 's an action - packed and entertaining finale . '' Rick Groen of The Globe and Mail criticized the action scenes as being `` messy '' , but concluded his review saying that the film `` continues the franchise without undue embarrassment . '' Peter Howell of The Toronto Star remarked that Willis and Courtney made a strong estranged family duo and that the film had a nice drinking game routine going for it with how many times McClane exclaims `` I 'm on vacation ! '' during the running time .

The Patriots defeated the Eagles by the score of 24 -- 21 . The game was played on February 6 , 2005 , at Alltel Stadium in Jacksonville , Florida , the first time the Super Bowl was played in that city . The Patriots , who entered the Super Bowl after compiling a 14 -- 2 regular season record , became the first team since the 1997 -- 1998 Denver Broncos to win consecutive Super Bowls . New England also became the second team after the Dallas Cowboys to win three Super Bowls in four years . The Eagles were making their second Super Bowl appearance after posting a 13 -- 3 regular season record . The game was close throughout , with the teams battling to a 14 -- 14 tie by the end of the third quarter . The Patriots then scored 10 points in the 4th quarter with Corey Dillon 's 2 - yard touchdown run and Adam Vinatieri 's 22 - yard field goal . The Eagles then cut their deficit to 24 -- 21 , with quarterback Donovan McNabb 's 30 - yard touchdown pass to receiver Greg Lewis , with 1 : 48 remaining in the game but could not sustain the comeback . Overall , New England forced four turnovers , while Patriots wide receiver Deion Branch was named Super Bowl MVP for recording 133 receiving yards and tied the Super Bowl record with 11 catches . To avoid the possibility of an incident similar to the Super Bowl XXXVIII halftime show during the previous year , the league selected Paul McCartney as a `` safe '' choice to perform during Super Bowl XXXIX 's halftime . The broadcast of the game on Fox was watched by an estimated 86 million viewers .

Patriots seek to become a dynasty ( edit ) Main article : 2004 New England Patriots season New England finished the regular season with a record of 14 -- 2 , bested only by the Steelers ' 15 -- 1 mark , and ranking 7th in yards gained ( 5,773 ) and fourth in points scored ( 437 ) . The Patriots ' major acquisition prior to the season was veteran running back Corey Dillon , who joined the team after playing 7 seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals . In his first 6 seasons in the league , Dillon averaged over 1,250 rushing yards per year , including setting a single - game rushing record ( 278 yards , but has since been broken ) against the Denver Broncos on October 22 , 2000 . In 2003 , however , injuries , conflicts with the Bengals ' management and coaching staff , and other off - field problems limited him to just 541 yards during the season . By the end of the 2003 season , Dillon had lost his starting job to running back Rudi Johnson , and thus demanded to be traded . Although many observers questioned how effective the 30 - year - old Dillon would be after recovering from his injuries as well as his ability to function in a team environment , the Patriots decided to sign the running back in exchange for a second - round draft pick . Dillon became a significant offensive weapon for the 2004 Patriots , recording 1,635 rushing yards ( franchise record ) and 12 touchdowns , both career highs , and was named to the Pro Bowl for the fourth time in his career . He also caught 15 passes for 103 yards and another touchdown . His contributions helped lead the team to break the NFL record for the most consecutive regular season victories ( 18 ) , the record for the most consecutive overall victories ( 21 ) and earned the second best regular season record during the year at 14 -- 2 . The team 's only losses during the year were to the Pittsburgh Steelers , who ended up with the league 's best regular season record at 15 -- 1 , and a 29 -- 28 loss to the Miami Dolphins on ABC 's Monday Night Football . Another weapon in the Patriots ' offensive backfield was running back Kevin Faulk , who rushed for 255 yards , recorded 26 receptions for 248 yards , returned 20 punts for 113 yards , returned 4 kickoffs for 73 yards , and scored 3 total touchdowns . Fullback Patrick Pass also emerged as a big contributor , rushing for 141 yards , catching 28 passes for 215 yards , and gaining another 115 yards on kickoff returns . Pro Bowl quarterback Tom Brady remained at the helm of the Patriots offense , completing 288 out of 474 ( 60.8 percent ) of his passes for 3,692 yards , 28 touchdowns , and 14 interceptions . Although wide receiver Deion Branch , New England 's major deep threat , missed most of the season because of injuries , he did record 35 receptions for 454 yards and 4 touchdowns . Wide receiver David Givens ended up being the team 's leading receiver with 56 catches for 874 yards and 3 touchdowns . Wide receiver David Patten also contributed with 44 receptions for 800 yards and 7 touchdowns , and tight end Daniel Graham had 30 receptions for 364 yards and 7 touchdowns . On special teams , pro bowl kicker Adam Vinatieri had the best season of his career , leading the NFL in field goals made ( 31 ) , field goal percentage ( 93.9 ) and scoring ( 141 points ) On defense , the Patriots were plagued by injuries , especially in their secondary . Defensive backs Tyrone Poole and Ty Law suffered season - ending injuries , while safety Eugene Wilson , who led the team with 4 interceptions , missed several games . In order to compensate for the losses , the following players were promoted to starters : Rookie cornerback Randall Gay , who did not play at all in the first 3 games of the season , and did not start until the 6th week . Cornerback Asante Samuel , who normally only played in dime formations . Safety Earthwind Moreland , who came off of the team 's practice squad and had only played in three games in his entire 5 - year NFL career . Veteran wide receiver Troy Brown . Head Coach Bill Belichick used Brown in the secondary during training camp , gave him playing time there during the preseason and saw Brown did very well . With their patchwork secondary , the Patriots ranked just 17th in passing yards allowed ( 3,400 ) and 22nd in completions allowed ( 315 ) . However , they did rank 7th in interceptions ( 20 ) and 10th in fewest passing touchdowns allowed ( 18 ) . Most importantly , New England continued to win despite the injuries . Brown actually turned out to be very effective playing as a defensive back , ranking second on the team with 3 interceptions . Safety Rodney Harrison was also an impact player , leading the team with 138 tackles while also recording 3 sacks and 2 interceptions . Up front , the Patriots ' defensive line was anchored by Pro Bowler Richard Seymour , who recorded 5 sacks and 1 fumble recovery . New England also still had their trio of impact veteran linebackers : Pro Bowler Tedy Bruschi ( 122 tackles , 3.5 sacks , 3 interceptions , and 70 return yards ) , Willie McGinest ( 9.5 sacks , 1 fumble recovery , and 1 interception ) , and Mike Vrabel ( 71 tackles and 5.5 sacks ) , along with Ted Johnson . Vrabel also frequently played at the tight end position during offensive plays near the opponent 's goal line , recording 2 touchdown receptions . Eagles return to the Super Bowl ( edit ) Main article : 2004 Philadelphia Eagles season The Eagles gained the 2004 NFC Super Bowl berth after 3 consecutive defeats in the NFC Championship Game to the St. Louis Rams , Tampa Bay Buccaneers ( who won Super Bowl XXXVII that year ) , and Carolina Panthers , respectively . The Eagles hired Andy Reid as their head coach in 1999 following two straight losing seasons . That same year , they used their first - round pick in the NFL draft ( the second overall ) to select quarterback Donovan McNabb . Although they finished the 1999 regular season with a 5 -- 11 record , they became a playoff team in 2000 , with McNabb throwing for 3,365 yards and 21 touchdowns while also rushing for 629 yards and another 6 touchdowns . The Eagles achieved the best regular season record in the conference during the combined 2001 , 2002 , and 2003 seasons with a total of 35 wins out of 48 games , but lost the NFC Championship Game in each of those 3 years . Prior to the 2004 season , the Eagles traded for wide receiver Terrell Owens to be the impact player to help get them to the Super Bowl . Owens joined the team after 8 seasons with the San Francisco 49ers . He was considered one of the top receivers in the league , but he was also widely considered a troublemaker because of controversial touchdown celebrations and his tendency to berate his teammates during media interviews . Nevertheless , Owens became the Eagles ' deep - ball threat , finishing the season with 77 receptions for 1,200 yards and 14 touchdowns . McNabb had the best season of his career in 2004 , completing 300 out of 469 ( 64 percent ) passes for 3,875 yards , 31 touchdowns , and 8 interceptions , making him the first quarterback to ever throw for more than 30 touchdowns and fewer than 10 interceptions in a season . He also rushed for 220 yards and 3 touchdowns . Wide receiver Todd Pinkston was also a reliable target , recording 36 catches for 676 yards . Philadelphia 's running game was not as strong as their passing attack , ranking just 24th in the league in rushing yards ( 1,639 ) . Running back Brian Westbrook led the team with 812 rushing yards and 3 touchdowns , however he also led all NFL running backs in receiving with 73 receptions for 706 yards and 6 touchdowns . Veteran running back Dorsey Levens was also a big contributor with 410 rushing yards . The Eagles ' offensive line was led by Pro Bowl tackles Tra Thomas and Jon Runyan and center Hank Fraley . Three of their four starters in the defensive secondary were named to the Pro Bowl : Cornerback Lito Sheppard ( 1 sack , 5 interceptions , 172 return yards and 2 touchdowns ) , safety Michael Lewis ( 88 tackles , 2 forced fumbles , 1 sack , and 1 interception ) and safety Brian Dawkins ( 3 sacks , 2 forced fumbles , 1 fumble recovery , and 4 interceptions for 40 return yards ) , while their fourth starter , cornerback Sheldon Brown , also enjoyed a solid year ( 89 tackles , 3 sacks , 1 forced fumble , and 2 interceptions ) . Their defensive line was anchored by Pro Bowl defensive tackle Corey Simon ( 5.5 sacks ) and defensive ends Jevon Kearse ( 7.5 sacks , Pro Bowl ) and Derrick Burgess . Pro Bowl middle linebacker Jeremiah Trotter , who only started 9 games , recorded 69 tackles and 1 sack . The Eagles started the 2004 regular season with seven straight wins before suffering a loss to the 15 - 1 Steelers . After that , they finished the season with a 13 -- 3 record . Their only other 2 losses were in their last 2 games of the season , when they decided to rest all of their starters because they had already clinched the NFC # 1 seed , and thus home - field advantage in the playoffs . However , during a December 19 , 12 -- 7 win over the Dallas Cowboys , Owens was seriously injured on a `` horse - collar tackle '' by Cowboys defensive back Roy Williams and had to miss the rest of the regular season and the playoffs . Playoffs ( edit ) Main article : 2004 -- 05 NFL playoffs Despite the loss of Owens , the Eagles beat the Minnesota Vikings , 27 -- 14 , and the Atlanta Falcons , 27 -- 10 , in the playoffs with relative ease . McNabb recorded 21 out of 33 completions for 286 yards and two touchdowns , while receiver Freddie Mitchell scored two touchdowns in the victory over the Vikings . Although Minnesota quarterback Daunte Culpepper threw for 316 yards , the Eagles defense recorded 2 interceptions , 2 sacks , and a forced fumble . McNabb then completed 17 out of 26 passes for 180 yards and two touchdowns in the win over the Falcons . The Eagles defense held dual - threat quarterback Michael Vick to only 136 passing yards , 26 rushing yards , and no touchdowns , while also recording an interception , 4 sacks , and a forced fumble on Vick . McNabb had an average passer rating of 111.3 in the two games , with 466 passing yards , 35 rushing yards , 4 touchdowns , and no turnovers . Safety Brian Dawkins was also an important player , recording a sack and a forced fumble against the Vikings , followed by an interception and a forced fumble against the Falcons in the NFC Championship Game . Meanwhile , the Patriots defeated the Indianapolis Colts , 20 -- 3 , holding the league 's highest scoring team with 522 total points to just one field goal , Indianapolis ' lowest point total since their opening game of the 2003 season . Colts quarterback Peyton Manning threw for 4,557 yards during the regular season , and set NFL records for most touchdown passes in a regular season ( 49 ) and highest quarterback rating ( 121.4 ) . Running back Edgerrin James gained 2,031 combined rushing and receiving yards and scored 9 touchdowns . Wide receivers Marvin Harrison , Reggie Wayne , and Brandon Stokley each recorded over 1,000 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns . However , the Patriots limited Manning to 238 passing yards with 1 interception and no touchdowns , and James to just 39 rushing yards . The Patriots also held possession of the ball for 37 : 43 , including 21 : 26 in the second half , and recorded three long scoring drives that each took over 7 minutes off the clock . One reason New England was able to hold the ball so long was because of Dillon 's rushing . He finished the game with 23 carries for 144 yards and 5 receptions for 17 yards . The Patriots then defeated the first seeded Pittsburgh Steelers in the AFC Championship Game , 41 -- 27 . Although Pittsburgh had beaten New England , 34 -- 20 , during the regular season and led the league in fewest total yards allowed , they could not stop the Patriots . Brady threw for 207 yards and 2 touchdowns ; Dillon rushed for 73 yards and a touchdown ; and Branch , who was coming off of his injuries , recorded 4 receptions for 116 yards and a touchdown , along with 37 rushing yards and another touchdown on 2 carries . Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger ( who had struggled the previous week against the New York Jets ) was intercepted 3 times , and running back Jerome Bettis , Pittsburgh 's leading rusher , was held to just 64 yards . Super Bowl pregame News ( edit ) Owens was cleared to play in Super Bowl XXXIX , defying doctors orders by playing on his injured ankle containing 2 screws and a metal plate . The other major story was the Patriots ' potential loss of both their offensive coordinator and defensive coordinator at the end of the season , and how it might affect the team in 2005 . On December 12 , 2004 , about a month and a half before the game , New England offensive coordinator Charlie Weis signed a contract to become the head coach of Notre Dame starting in the 2005 season . Rumors were also circulating that defensive coordinator Romeo Crennel would also leave the team to become the head coach of the Cleveland Browns ( which ended up being true as Crennel and the Browns agreed to a contract a couple of weeks after the Super Bowl ) . Due to injuries at the tight end spot , the Eagles were forced to sign Jeff Thomason , a former tight end who was working construction at the time , to a one - game contract for the Super Bowl . Thomason saw time during several plays , although never had a ball thrown his way . This was his third Super Bowl , playing in two with the Green Bay Packers during Andy Reid 's days as a Packer assistant . With this appearance the Patriots became the 8th team to make it to the Super Bowl for the 5th time . They joined the Dallas Cowboys , Denver Broncos , Pittsburgh Steelers , San Francisco 49ers , Miami Dolphins , Washington Redskins , and Oakland / Los Angeles Raiders . They would be joined by the Green Bay Packers in 2011 and the New York Giants in 2012 . The Eagles were trying to win their first NFL title since 1960 and the first championship for the city of Philadelphia since Moses Malone 's `` fo ' , fi ' , fo ' '' during the 76ers run to the 1983 NBA Championship . With President George W. Bush being inaugurated for a second time in January , the Eagles were also trying to end a losing streak -- teams in the city of Philadelphia had lost six straight championships during presidential inauguration years , beginning with the 76ers loss in 1977 . The streak included the Eagles in Super Bowl XV in 1981 . 1989 was not included in that streak , but 1977 , 1981 , 1985 ( Flyers ) , 1993 ( Phillies ) , 1997 ( Flyers ) , and 2001 ( 76ers ) were . Television and entertainment ( edit ) The game was televised in the United States by Fox , with play - by - play announcer Joe Buck and color commentators Cris Collinsworth and Troy Aikman . Pam Oliver ( Patriots sideline ) and Chris Myers ( Eagles sideline ) served as sideline reporters . This marked the first time since Super Bowl I that none of the network commentators had ever called a Super Bowl game before ( although Collinsworth had worked three prior Super Bowl telecasts as a pregame analyst ) . This was the last game that Cris Collinsworth broadcast as a member of the Fox NFL team , as he chose to sign with NBC in the following off - season . James Brown hosted all the events with help from his fellow Fox NFL Sunday cast members Terry Bradshaw , Howie Long , and Jimmy Johnson . Jillian Barberie served as weather and entertainment reporter . Following the game , Fox aired a special episode of The Simpsons ( `` Homer and Ned 's Hail Mary Pass '' ) and the series premiere of American Dad ! ( `` Pilot '' ) , except in Philadelphia and Boston , where local newscasts delayed the premieres by an hour . Pregame ceremonies ( edit ) Before the game , performances came from the Black Eyed Peas , Earth Wind & Fire , Charlie Daniels , John Fogerty , and Gretchen Wilson . Shortly before kickoff , Alicia Keys sang `` America the Beautiful , '' paying tribute to Ray Charles , who died in June 2004 . The combined choirs of the U.S. Military Academy , the U.S. Naval Academy , the U.S. Air Force Academy , and the U.S. Coast Guard Academy ( including members of The Idlers ) sang the national anthem accompanied by the U.S. Army Herald Trumpets . This was the first time in more than 30 years that all four service academies sang together -- the last time was at the second inauguration of President Richard Nixon in 1973 . The traditional military missing man formation flyby was this year performed by a pair of F / A-18 Super Hornets from VFA - 106 at NAS Oceana and a pair of the Air Force 's newest fighters , the F - 22 Raptor , flying from Tyndall AFB , the training base for the Raptor . The earlier military flyby during the veterans ' salute was conducted by 2 T - 6 Texan trainers and a B - 25 Mitchell bomber . The coin toss ceremony featured youth football players from Jacksonville : Tyler Callahan , Tyler Deal , Lawrence McCauley , and Jacob Santana ; and New Orleans NFL Junior Player Development coach Tamaris Jackson . They were billed as the first non-celebrities to participate in the coin toss . For the third straight year , each team took the field en masse , following a tradition the Patriots had started in Super Bowl XXXVI . In prerecorded video segments , Andover , Massachusetts native Michael Chiklis introduced the Patriots , and Philadelphia - born Will Smith introduced the Eagles . Halftime show ( edit ) Paul McCartney performed during the halftime show Paul McCartney performed during the halftime show ; his selection by the NFL , the show 's producers , Don Mischer Productions , and the show 's sponsor , Ameriquest Mortgage , was considered to be a `` safe '' choice , as it avoided the possibility for an incident similar to that which sparked the Super Bowl XXXVIII halftime show controversy the previous year . McCartney 's set consisted of these songs : `` Drive My Car '' `` Get Back '' `` Live and Let Die '' from his career with Wings . `` Hey Jude '' Theme ( edit ) Taking the concept a step further , for the first time , a theme was tied to the event : Building Bridges , as symbolized by the theme logo , represented by the Main Street Bridge , one of the seven bridges that crosses over the St. Johns River in the host city , and according to the League , symbolized the bridging of a nation under the NFL football umbrella . The theme was also used by Jacksonville - area nonprofit Fresh Ministries in a major event entitled `` Bridges of Peace , '' featuring city officials asking the people to unite for the Super Bowl and heal the wounds of segregation . Presidential appearances ( edit ) Former Presidents George H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton appeared in support of their bipartisan effort to raise money for relief of the December 26 , 2004 tsunami in southeast Asia through the USA Freedom Corps , an action which former President Bush described as `` transcending politics . '' Game Summary ( edit ) The Eagles on offense First quarter ( edit ) On the first drive of the game , Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb fumbled while being sacked by New England linebacker Willie McGinest , and the Patriots recovered the ball at Philadelphia 's 34 - yard line . Fortunately for the Eagles , coach Andy Reid 's instant replay challenge overruled the fumble ; officials ruled that McNabb had been down by contact before the ball came out of his hands . Later in the quarter after each team had punted twice , McNabb completed a 30 - yard pass to Terrell Owens , with a roughing the passer penalty adding 9 yards , moving the ball inside the Patriots 20 - yard line . However , linebacker Mike Vrabel sacked McNabb for a 16 - yard loss on the next play . On the following play , the Eagles once again appeared to turn the ball over : McNabb 's pass was intercepted in the end zone by Patriots defensive back Asante Samuel , but it was nullified by an illegal contact penalty on linebacker Roman Phifer , moving the ball back inside the 20 and giving the Eagles a first down . However , McNabb 's second chance was wasted as he threw an interception to safety Rodney Harrison on the next play . This was Donovan McNabb 's first red zone interception of the season . The Eagles defense then forced New England to a three - and - out on their ensuing possession , and Philadelphia got great field position by receiving the punt at the Patriots 45 - yard line . But once again , they gave up another turnover : tight end L.J. Smith lost a fumble while being tackled by defensive back Randall Gay , and Eugene Wilson recovered the ball at the 38 . Brady takes the snap Brady throws a pass Second quarter ( edit ) The Eagles defense once again forced New England to punt , and got the ball back at their own 19 - yard line . Aided by a pair of completions from McNabb to wide receiver Todd Pinkston for gains of 17 and 40 yards , the Eagles drove 81 yards in nine plays and scored on McNabb 's six - yard touchdown pass to Tight End LJ Smith , taking a 7 -- 0 lead with 9 : 55 left in the second quarter . It was the first time New England trailed during the entire postseason . On their ensuing drive , the Patriots moved the ball to the Eagles four - yard line , mainly on plays by running back Corey Dillon , who caught two screen passes for 29 yards and rushed for 25 . But quarterback Tom Brady fumbled the ball on a fake handoff Play - action pass and Philadelphia defender Darwin Walker recovered it . However , the Eagles could not take advantage of the turnover and had to punt after 3 plays . Eagles punter Dirk Johnson 's punt went just 29 yards , giving the Patriots the ball at Philadelphia 's 37 - yard line . The Patriots then drove 37 yards to score on Brady 's 4 - yard pass to receiver David Givens with 1 : 10 remaining in the period , tying the game 7 -- 7 by halftime . It was only the second halftime tie in Super Bowl history and the first time both of the game 's first two quarters ended tied . Third quarter ( edit ) On the opening drive of the second half , Patriots wide receiver Deion Branch caught 4 passes for 71 yards on a drive that ended with Brady 's 2 - yard touchdown pass to Vrabel , who lined up at the tight end spot on the play . The Eagles later tied the game with 3 : 39 left in the third period with a 74 - yard , 10 - play drive that was capped by McNabb 's 10 - yard touchdown pass to running back Brian Westbrook . For the first time in Super Bowl history , the game was tied going into the fourth quarter . Fourth quarter ( edit ) Early in the final period , the Patriots put together a 9 - play , 66 - yard scoring drive that was keyed by 3 plays from running back Kevin Faulk , who caught 2 passes for 27 combined yards and rushed once for 12 . Dillon capped off the drive with a 2 - yard touchdown run to give the Patriots a 21 -- 14 lead . Then after forcing another Eagles punt , Branch made a spectacular catch , taking the ball out of the hands of cornerback Sheldon Brown . The 19 yard gain , and a roughing - the - passer penalty on Philadelphia defensive lineman Corey Simon on the same play , set up kicker Adam Vinatieri 's 22 - yard field goal with 8 : 43 left in the game to increase the score 24 -- 14 in favor of New England . In all three Patriots ' Super Bowl wins in the decade , they held a double digit lead in the 4th quarter . The Eagles responded with a long McNabb completion to Owens . However , after reaching the New England 36 - yard line , McNabb fired a pass over the head of Dorsey Levens , where Tedy Bruschi was waiting to intercept it at the Patriots 24 - yard line . At this point , there was only 7 : 20 to play in the game , with the Patriots still up by 10 points . The Eagles did force New England to punt , and got the ball back at their own 21 - yard line , but with 5 : 40 left in the game . The Eagles then drove 79 yards in 13 plays , however they used a full huddle for the entire drive . McNabb 's 30 - yard touchdown pass to receiver Greg Lewis cut the deficit to 24 - 21 . Because the Eagles used a full huddle , the drive consumed 3 : 52 of the clock , and only 1 : 48 remained in the game by the time Lewis scored . Because of this , many sportswriters later criticized the Eagles for not immediately going to a no - huddle offense at the start of the possession . Anecdotal reports later came out alleging that McNabb was suffering from dry - heaves , and teammates Jon Ritchie and Lito Sheppard have gone on record years later that McNabb was suffering from dry - heaves or vomiting , though no video evidence exists and the stories have not been confirmed . Hank Fraley said in an interview the day after the game that McNabb was `` almost puking '' due to two large hits from Tedy Bruschi and Jarvis Green on back - to - back plays . McNabb himself denies that he was vomiting or dry - heaving during the final drive , and Brian Westbrook later claimed that McNabb was merely `` coughing . '' The Eagles failed to recover their ensuing onside kick attempt , with Christian Fauria catching the ball cleanly and sliding down to seal possession for New England . The Patriots then played it safe by running the ball 3 times and forcing Philadelphia to use all of its timeouts . New England punter Josh Miller then pinned the Eagles back at their own 4 - yard line with just 46 seconds left in the game . Philadelphia then tried one last desperate drive to win or tie the game . But on first down , McNabb was pressured into making a rushed pass to Westbrook at the line of scrimmage . Instead of dropping the pass to stop the clock , Westbrook made the mistake of catching the ball and was immediately tackled for no gain , keeping the clock running and forcing the Eagles to run back to the line of scrimmage for their next play with no huddle . On second down , McNabb threw an incomplete pass intended for Owens . Finally on third down , McNabb threw a pass that deflected off of the outstretched fingertips of Smith and into the arms of Harrison for an interception with nine seconds left . Tom Brady took a knee to run out the clock , clinching the 3rd Super Bowl title in 4 years for the Patriots , and in the eyes of many establishing themselves as a dynasty .

For other American football terms , see Glossary of American football . 24 21 Statistical overview ( edit ) The Patriots score their second touchdown of the game McNabb completed 30 out of 51 passes for 357 yards and 3 touchdowns , but threw 3 interceptions and was sacked four times . McNabb 's 357 yards are tied with Joe Montana for the fifth most in Super Bowl history and third most of any quarterback , as Tom Brady holds the top spot with 505 yards in Super Bowl LII and Kurt Warner holds the following 3 spots . Westbrook was the Eagles leading rusher with 44 yards , while also catching 6 passes for 70 yards and a touchdown and returning 3 punts for 19 yards . Pinkston caught 4 passes for 82 yards , while Owens was the Eagles ' top receiver with 9 catches for 122 yards , however neither of them scored a touchdown . Brady completed 23 out of 33 passes for 236 yards and 2 touchdowns . Dillon was the top rusher of the game with 75 yards and a touchdown , and had 3 catches for 31 yards . Running back Kevin Faulk contributed 38 rushing yards and 27 receiving yards . Branch 's Super Bowl record 11 catches tied Cincinnati Bengals ' Dan Ross in Super Bowl XVI and San Francisco 49ers ' Jerry Rice in Super Bowl XXIII . Coincidentally , all three would later be traded to the Seattle Seahawks : Ross in 1985 , Rice in 2004 and Branch in 2006 . Branch 's combined 21 catches in Super Bowls XXXVIII and XXXIX are the most in back - to - back Super Bowls . Branch also became the third offensive player ever to win Super Bowl MVP honors without scoring a touchdown or throwing a touchdown pass . The other two players were Joe Namath in Super Bowl III and Fred Biletnikoff in Super Bowl XI . Branch and Terrell Owens each had 100 yards receiving , marking the third time in Super Bowl history , one player from each team had over 100 yards in a Super Bowl . Michael Irvin and Andre Reed were the first in Super Bowl XXVII , and Branch and Muhsin Muhammad the second a year earlier in Super Bowl XXXVIII . Branch also became the fourth player to have at least 100 yards receiving in back - to - back Super Bowls , joining John Stallworth , Jerry Rice and Antonio Freeman . Also , Mike Vrabel and David Givens became just the 14th and 15th players to score a touchdown in consecutive Super Bowls . Vrabel is the most surprising person on this list because he is a linebacker and he scored his on offense . They also became just the 7th and 8th players to catch a touchdown in back - to - back Super Bowls . With the victory , Tom Brady became just the fourth quarterback to win at least three Super Bowls , along with Terry Bradshaw , Joe Montana and Troy Aikman . Brady also became the fourth quarterback to throw a touchdown pass in three different Super Bowls . Other quarterbacks to do it were Terry Bradshaw , Joe Montana and John Elway , with Kurt Warner later accomplishing the feat during Super Bowl XLIII . The Patriots joined the Dallas Cowboys as the only teams in NFL history to win three Super Bowls in a span of four years . Aftermath ( edit ) The Patriots ' Super Bowl win was the third championship for Boston - area sports teams in 12 months , following the Patriots winning Super Bowl XXXVIII the year before and the Red Sox winning the World Series -- first in 86 years -- three months earlier . This marked the first time since 1989 -- 1990 in the San Francisco Bay Area that the same market has had 2 Super Bowl and World Series winners in 12 months . The Patriots would later appear in Super Bowl XLII and Super Bowl XLVI , losing both to Eli Manning 's New York Giants , before winning Super Bowl XLIX against the Seattle Seahawks , 28 -- 24 , ten years later and Super Bowl LI against the Atlanta Falcons , 34 - 28 , two years later . The latest Super Bowl win for the Patriots makes it ten titles among the four Boston teams ( 5 by the Patriots , 3 by the Red Sox , and one each by the Celtics and Bruins ) since 2002 . For the Eagles , with the loss , the city of Philadelphia would not see its first championship since the 76ers swept the 1983 NBA Finals until the next time their city 's teams played for a championship , when the Phillies won the 2008 World Series . The Eagles did not return to the Super Bowl until 2017 , also with a 13 - 3 record , and defeating the Falcons and Vikings in the playoffs . The Eagles and the Patriots met again in Super Bowl LII , following the 2017 season , with the Eagles taking their revenge 41 -- 33 . This is the last time that a team has won back - to - back Super Bowls , with the Patriots losing their second playoff game a year later and then , for the next eight years , every team either losing their first playoff game or missing them altogether . The streak was broken in 2014 when the Seahawks defeated the Panthers and ultimately advanced to the Super Bowl , only to lose to a Patriots goal line stand . The next year , the Patriots , having faltered down the stretch , entered those playoffs as the second seed behind the Broncos , who then defeated New England in the AFC Title Game that year en route to a title of their own in Super Bowl 50 . Two years later , the Patriots , defending champions themselves from Super Bowl LI , returned to repeat their title only to lose the aforementioned Super Bowl LII .

One ad that drew the ire of many -- including the NFL -- was for the internet domain provider Go Daddy , which tweaked the controversial halftime of the previous year 's game with a mock censorship hearing featuring a comely woman , Nikki Cappelli ( played by WWE Wrestler Candice Michelle ) , having a `` wardrobe malfunction '' . Fox pulled the second airing of the ad , scheduled for the two - minute warning of the fourth quarter , along with a five - second plug , and it was replaced with a promo for The Simpsons . The Scottsdale , Arizona - based World Wide Web domain registration company got a refund on the second ad . Another popular ad was made by the NFL . It featured players who were not in the Super Bowl , headlined by Pittsburgh Steelers rookie quarterback Ben Roethlisberger being at a beach resort , depressed he did not make it in . Joe Montana comforted Roethlisberger , and soon both Montana and Roethlisberger joined many other players in different locations in an off - key yet rousing edition of `` Tomorrow '' from the musical Annie . The commercial ended with the tagline : `` Tomorrow , we 're all undefeated again . '' Roethlisberger went on to lead the Steelers to victory in Super Bowl XL the very next season . The top ad , as chosen by the USA Today Super Bowl Ad Meter was for Anheuser - Busch 's Bud Light featuring a timid skydiver making his first jump getting enticed with a six - pack of the product . This ad was ranked second on ADBOWL . The highest ranked commercial by ADBOWL was Anheuser - Busch 's `` Applause . '' For the first time since the campaign started in Super Bowl XXI , no `` I 'm going to Disney World ! '' ad aired following Super Bowl XXXIX . Player bonuses ( edit ) Each member of the Patriots received a payment of $68,000 for winning the game . The Eagles each received $36,500 . When adjusted for inflation , the Patriots salary was actually less than the $15,000 paid to members of the Green Bay Packers for winning Super Bowl I in 1967 . That amount of money in 1967 equated to approximately $85,000 in 2005 .

Twelve - step program - wikipedia Twelve - step program Jump to : navigation , search A twelve - step program is a set of guiding principles outlining a course of action for recovery from addiction , compulsion , or other behavioral problems . Originally proposed by Alcoholics Anonymous ( AA ) as a method of recovery from alcoholism , the Twelve Steps were first published in the 1939 book Alcoholics Anonymous : The Story of How More Than One Hundred Men Have Recovered from Alcoholism . The method was adapted and became the foundation of other twelve - step programs . As summarized by the American Psychological Association , the process involves the following : admitting that one can not control one 's alcoholism , addiction or compulsion ; recognizing a higher power that can give strength ; examining past errors with the help of a sponsor ( experienced member ) ; making amends for these errors ; learning to live a new life with a new code of behavior ; helping others who suffer from the same alcoholism , addictions or compulsions . Contents ( hide ) 1 Overview 2 History 3 Twelve Steps 4 Twelve Traditions 5 Process 6 Sponsorship 7 Effectiveness 8 Criticism 8.1 Confidentiality 8.2 Cultural identity 9 See also 10 References 11 Further reading 11.1 Scholarly publications Overview ( edit ) Twelve - step methods have been adapted to address a wide range of alcoholism , substance - abuse and dependency problems . Over 200 self - help organizations -- often known as fellowships -- with a worldwide membership of millions -- now employ twelve - step principles for recovery . Narcotics Anonymous was formed by addicts who did not relate to the specifics of alcohol dependency . Demographic preferences related to the addicts ' drug of choice has led to the creation of Cocaine Anonymous , Crystal Meth Anonymous and Marijuana Anonymous . Behavioral issues such as compulsion for , and / or addiction to , gambling , crime , food , sex , hoarding , debting and work are addressed in fellowships such as Gamblers Anonymous , Overeaters Anonymous , Sexaholics Anonymous and Debtors Anonymous . Auxiliary groups such as Al - Anon and Nar - Anon , for friends and family members of alcoholics and addicts , respectively , are part of a response to treating addiction as a disease that is enabled by family systems . Adult Children of Alcoholics ( ACA or ACOA ) addresses the effects of growing up in an alcoholic or otherwise dysfunctional family . Co-Dependents Anonymous ( CoDA ) addresses compulsions related to relationships , referred to as codependency . History ( edit ) For more details on this topic , see History of Alcoholics Anonymous . Alcoholics Anonymous ( AA ) , the first twelve - step fellowship , was founded in 1935 by Bill Wilson and Dr. Robert Holbrook Smith , known to AA members as `` Bill W . '' and `` Dr. Bob '' , in Akron , Ohio . In 1946 they formally established the twelve traditions to help deal with the issues of how various groups could relate and function as membership grew . The practice of remaining anonymous ( using only ones first names ) when interacting with the general public was published in the first edition of the AA Big Book . As AA chapters were increasing in number during the 1930s and 1940s , the guiding principles were gradually defined as the Twelve Traditions . A singleness of purpose emerged as Tradition Five : `` Each group has but one primary purpose -- to carry its message to the alcoholic who still suffers '' . Consequently , drug addicts who do not suffer from the specifics of alcoholism involved in AA hoping for recovery technically are not welcome in `` closed '' meetings unless they have a desire to stop drinking alcohol . The principles of AA have been used to form many numbers of other fellowships specifically designed for those recovering from various pathologies ; each emphasizes recovery from the specific malady which brought the sufferer into the fellowship . Twelve steps ( edit ) For more details on this topic , see List of Twelve Step alternate wordings . The following are the original twelve steps as published by Alcoholics Anonymous : We admitted we were powerless over alcohol -- that our lives had become unmanageable . Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity . Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him . Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves . Admitted to God , to ourselves , and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs . Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character . Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings . Made a list of all persons we had harmed , and became willing to make amends to them all . Made direct amends to such people wherever possible , except when to do so would injure them or others . Continued to take personal inventory , and when we were wrong , promptly admitted it . Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him , praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out . Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps , we tried to carry this message to alcoholics , and to practice these principles in all our affairs . In some cases , where other twelve - step groups have adapted the AA steps as guiding principles , step one is uniquely different for each organization , these are sometimes altered to emphasize principles important to those particular fellowships , or to remove gender - biased language . Twelve Traditions ( edit ) Main article : Twelve Traditions The Twelve Traditions accompany the Twelve Steps . The Traditions provide guidelines for group governance . They were developed in AA in order to help resolve conflicts in the areas of publicity , politics , religion and finances . Alcoholics Anonymous ' Twelve Traditions are : Our common welfare should come first ; personal recovery depends upon AA unity . For our group purpose there is but one ultimate authority -- a loving God as He may express Himself in our group conscience . Our leaders are but trusted servants ; they do not govern . The only requirement for AA membership is a desire to stop drinking . Each group should be autonomous except in matters affecting other groups or AA as a whole . Each group has but one primary purpose -- to carry its message to the alcoholic who still suffers . An AA group ought never endorse , finance , or lend the AA name to any related facility or outside enterprise , lest problems of money , property , and prestige divert us from our primary purpose . Every AA group ought to be fully self - supporting , declining outside contributions . Alcoholics Anonymous should remain forever non-professional , but our service centers may employ special workers . AA , as such , ought never be organized ; but we may create service boards or committees directly responsible to those they serve . Alcoholics Anonymous has no opinion on outside issues ; hence the AA name ought never be drawn into public controversy . Our public relations policy is based on attraction rather than promotion ; we need always to maintain personal anonymity at the level of press , radio , and films . Anonymity is the spiritual foundation of all our traditions , ever reminding us to place principles before personalities . Process ( edit ) In the twelve - step program human structure is symbolically represented in three dimensions : physical , mental , and spiritual . The problems the groups deal with are understood to manifest themselves in each dimension . For addicts and alcoholics the physical dimension is best described by the allergy - like bodily reaction resulting in the compulsion to continue using substances after the initial use . The statement in the First Step that the individual is `` powerless '' over the substance - abuse related behavior at issue refers to the lack of control over this compulsion , which persists despite any negative consequences that may be endured as a result . The mental obsession is described as the cognitive processes that causes the individual to repeat the compulsive behavior after some period of abstinence , either knowing that the result will be an inability to stop or operating under the delusion that the result will be different . The description in the First Step of the life of the alcoholic or addict as `` unmanageable '' refers to the lack of choice that the mind of the addict or alcoholic affords concerning whether to drink or use again . The illness of the spiritual dimension , or `` spiritual malady , '' is considered in all twelve - step groups to be self - centeredness . The process of working the steps is intended to replace self - centeredness with a growing moral consciousness and a willingness for self - sacrifice and unselfish constructive action . In twelve - step groups , this is known as a spiritual awakening or religious experience . This should not be confused with abreaction , which produces dramatic , but ephemeral , changes . In twelve - step fellowships , `` spiritual awakening '' is believed to develop , most frequently , slowly over a period of time . In accordance with the First Step , twelve - step groups emphasize self - admission by members of the problem they are recovering from . It is in this spirit that members often identify themselves along with an admission of their problem , often as `` Hi , I 'm ( first name only ) , and I 'm an alcoholic '' . Sponsorship ( edit ) A sponsor is a more experienced person in recovery who guides the less - experienced aspirant ( `` sponsee '' ) through the program 's twelve steps . New members in twelve - step programs are encouraged to secure a relationship with at least one sponsor who both has a sponsor and has taken the twelves steps themselves . Publications from twelve - step fellowships emphasize that sponsorship is a `` one on one '' nonhierarchical relationship of shared experiences focused on working the Twelve Steps . According to Narcotics Anonymous : Sponsors share their experience , strength , and hope with their sponsees ... A sponsor 's role is not that of a legal adviser , a banker , a parent , a marriage counselor , or a social worker . Nor is a sponsor a therapist offering some sort of professional advice . A sponsor is simply another addict in recovery who is willing to share his or her journey through the Twelve Steps . Sponsors and sponsees participate in activities that lead to spiritual growth . Experiences in the program are often shared by outgoing members with incoming members . This rotation of experience is often considered to have a great spiritual reward . These may include practices such as literature discussion and study , meditation , and writing . Completing the program usually implies competency to guide newcomers which is often encouraged . Sponsees typically do their Fifth Step , review their moral inventory written as part of the Fourth Step , with their sponsor . The Fifth Step , as well as the Ninth Step , have been compared to confession and penitence . Michel Foucault , a French philosopher , noted such practices produce intrinsic modifications in the person -- exonerating , redeeming and purifying them ; relieves them of their burden of wrong , liberating them and promising salvation . The personal nature of the behavioral issues that lead to seeking help in twelve - step fellowships results in a strong relationship between sponsee and sponsor . As the relationship is based on spiritual principles , it is unique and not generally characterized as `` friendship '' . Fundamentally , the sponsor has the single purpose of helping the sponsee recover from the behavioral problem that brought the sufferer into twelve - step work , which reflexively helps the sponsor recover . A study of sponsorship as practiced in Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous found that providing direction and support to other alcoholics and addicts is associated with sustained abstinence for the sponsor , but suggested that there were few short - term benefits for the sponsee 's one - year sustained abstinence rate . Effectiveness ( edit ) See also : Effectiveness of Alcoholics Anonymous , Effectiveness of Crystal Meth Anonymous , Effectiveness of Gamblers Anonymous , Effectiveness of Narcotics Anonymous , Effectiveness of Neurotics Anonymous , Effectiveness of Nicotine Anonymous , and Effectiveness of self - help groups for mental health Alcoholics Anonymous is the largest of all the twelve - step programs ( from which all other twelve - steps programs are derived ) , followed by Narcotics Anonymous ; the majority of twelve - step members are recovering from addiction to alcohol or other drugs . The majority of twelve - step programs , however , address illnesses other than substance addiction . For example , the third - largest twelve - step program , Al - Anon , assists family members and friends of people who have alcoholism and other addictions . About twenty percent of twelve - step programs are for substance addiction recovery , the other eighty percent address a variety of problems from debt to depression . It would be an error to assume the effectiveness of twelve - step methods at treating problems in one domain translates to all or to another domain , therefore readers are directed to relevant sections in each group 's article . Criticism ( edit ) See also : Alcoholics Anonymous : Criticism , Gamblers Anonymous § Criticism , Narcotics Anonymous § Controversies , Gamblers Anonymous : Criticism , Narcotics Anonymous : Controversies , and Overeaters Anonymous : Criticism The criticisms of twelve - step groups are as varied as the pathologies they address . People have attended twelve - step meetings , only to find success eluded them . Their varied success rate and the belief in a Higher Power suggested in them , are common criticisms of their universal applicability and efficacy . Confidentiality ( edit ) The Twelve Traditions encourage members to practice the spiritual principle of anonymity in the public media and members are also asked to respect each others ' confidentiality . This is a group norm , however , and not legally mandated ; there are no legal consequences to discourage those attending twelve - step groups from revealing information disclosed during meetings . Statutes on group therapy do not encompass those associations that lack a professional therapist or clergyman to whom confidentiality and privilege might apply . Professionals and paraprofessionals who refer patients to these groups , to avoid both civil liability and licensure problems , have been advised that they should alert their patients that , at any time , their statements made in meetings may be disclosed . Cultural identity ( edit ) One review warned of detrimental iatrogenic effects of twelve - step philosophy and labeled the organizations as cults , while another review asserts that these programs bore little semblance to religious cults and that the techniques used appeared beneficial to some . Another study found that a twelve - step program 's focus on self - admission of having a problem increases deviant stigma and strips members of their previous cultural identity , replacing it with the deviant identity . Another study asserts that the prior cultural identity may not be replaced entirely , but rather members found adapted a bicultural identity .

Typeface anatomy describes the graphic elements that make up printed letters in a typeface . Contents ( hide ) 1 Strokes 2 Terminals 3 Space 4 Proportions 5 Metal type era 6 See also 7 References 8 Further reading 9 External links Strokes ( edit ) The strokes are the components of a letterform . Strokes may be straight , as in klvwxz , or curved , as in cos . If straight , they may be horizontal , vertical , or diagonal ; if curved , open or closed . Typographers also speak of an instroke , where one starts writing the letter , as at the top of acf , and an outstroke , where the pen leaves off , as at the bottom of cejkty . Typefaces are born from the struggle between rules and results . Squeezing a square about 1 % helps it look more like a square ; to appear the same height as a square , a circle must be measurably taller . The two strokes in an X are n't the same thickness , nor are their parallel edges actually parallel ; the vertical stems of a lowercase alphabet are thinner than those of its capitals ; the ascender on ad is n't the same length as the descender on ap , and so on . For the rational mind , type design can be a maddening game of drawing things differently in order to make them appear the same . Hoefler & Frere - Jones A main vertical stroke is called a stem . The letter m has three , the left , middle , and right stems . The central stroke of an s is called the spine . When the stroke is part of a lowercase and rises above the height of an x ( called the x height ) , it is called an ascender . Letters with ascenders are bdfhkl . A stroke which drops below the baseline is a descender . Letters with descenders are gjpqy . An arching stroke is called a shoulder as in the top of an R or sometimes just an arch , as in hnm . A closed curved stroke is called a bowl in bdopq DOPQ ; B has two bowls . A trailing outstroke , as in jy JQR is called a tail . The inferior diagonal stroke in K is called leg . A short horizontal stroke , as in the center of ef and the middle stroke of EF , is called a bar . When the strokes connect as in A and H or cross strokes as in t is also known as crossbar . A longer horizontal stroke at the top or bottom , as in ET , is called an arm . The bottom of the two - story g is called a loop ; the very short stroke at the top is called the ear . ij each have a dot , jot , or tittle . Angles of strokes are called apices if at the top and vertices if at the bottom . w has one apex and two vertices ; v has one vertex . The font shown in the example is stressed : strokes have varying widths . In this example , the stroke at the top of the g is thinner at the top and bottom than on the sides -- a vertical stress . Terminals ( edit ) The terminals ( ends ) of instrokes and outstrokes often end in serif or sans - serif . A seriffed terminal may be described as a wedge , bulbous , teardrop , slab , etc. , depending on the design of the type . Sorting typefaces can be practical based on its look . A clue feature is to define the serif style . Some designs also have spurs , which are smaller than serifs and appear on angles rather than at a terminal , as on e or G . Space ( edit ) Areas of negative space ( white space ) formed by straight or curved strokes are called counters . Closed counters are found in abdegopq ABDOPQR , and open counters in acefhmnrstu . The close counter in e is also named eye . Angles of white space , as in w , are corners ( w has three corners ) ; the term is not used for angles of strokes . The small corner formed by a serif , whether curved or angular , is called the serif bracket . Proportions ( edit ) A subtle change in proportion impacts weight , perception , measure , and legibility . The letterform height compared to its stroke width modifies the aspect ; this slight change in weight sometimes helps to create emphasis . The disparity between thick and thin strokes , known as stress , alters optical perception . As an example , the initial san serif typefaces used a constantly thin stroke . The technological advances allow drawing thinner strokes . Condense type occupies less space than expanded type , then the text written on a page can be reduced to half a page. The capline and x-height ratio improve or decrease word legibility . Metal type era ( edit ) During the late metal type period , many fonts ( particularly in American typefounding ) were issued to `` common line '' . This meant that they were made to standardised proportions , so that fonts of different typefaces could be mixed with no difficulty . This made it possible to mix typefaces from completely different genres such as sans - serifs and serifs and have the cap height , baseline and linespacing match perfectly , something not possible with most digital fonts . It even allowed mixing of different sizes of type with a consistent baseline . It however had the disadvantage of often forcing typefaces to be issued with cropped descenders compared to historical typefaces , to allow tight linespacing . A `` script line '' or `` art line '' was used for more delicate fonts with long descenders . Titling capitals , meanwhile , were issued taking up the whole space of the metal type area , with no room for descenders .

The Eagles compete in the National Football League ( NFL ) as a member club of the league 's National Football Conference ( NFC ) East division . They are Super Bowl champions , having won Super Bowl LII , their fourth NFL title , after winning in 1948 , 1949 , and 1960 . The franchise was established in 1933 as a replacement for the bankrupt Frankford Yellow Jackets , when a group led by Bert Bell secured the rights to an NFL franchise in Philadelphia . Bell , Chuck Bednarik , Bob Brown , Brian Dawkins , Reggie White , Steve Van Buren , Tommy McDonald , Greasy Neale , Pete Pihos , Sonny Jurgensen , and Norm Van Brocklin have been inducted to the Pro Football Hall of Fame . The team has an intense rivalry with the New York Giants . This rivalry is the oldest in the NFC East and is among the oldest in the NFL . It was ranked by NFL Network as the number one rivalry of all - time and Sports Illustrated ranks it amongst the Top 10 NFL rivalries of all - time at number four , and according to ESPN , it is one of the fiercest and most well - known rivalries in the American football community . They also have a bitter rivalry with the Dallas Cowboys , which has become more high - profile since the 1960s , as well as a historic rivalry with the Washington Redskins . Their rivalry with the Pittsburgh Steelers is another bitter rivalry , roughly dating back to 1933 , that mostly arises from the two teams ' statuses as being from opposite ends of the same state . The team consistently ranks in the top three in attendance and has sold out every game since the 1999 season . In a Sports Illustrated poll of 321 NFL players , Eagles fans were selected the most intimidating fans in the NFL .

The Bell - Wray group had to pay an entry fee of $3,500 ( equal to $40,230 today ) and assumed a total debt of $11,000 that was owed to three other NFL franchises . Drawing inspiration from the Blue Eagle insignia of the National Recovery Administration -- the centerpiece of President Franklin D. Roosevelt 's New Deal -- Bell and Wray named the new franchise the Philadelphia Eagles . Neither the Eagles nor the NFL officially regard the two franchises as the same , citing the aforementioned period of dormancy . Furthermore , almost no Yellow Jackets players were on the Eagles ' first roster . The Eagles , along with the Pittsburgh Steelers and the now - defunct Cincinnati Reds , joined the NFL as expansion teams . In 1937 , the Eagles moved to Shibe Park ( renamed Connie Mack Stadium in 1954 ) and played their home games at the stadium through 1957 , except for the 1941 season , which was played at Municipal Stadium , where they had played from 1936 to 1939 . To accommodate football at Shibe Park during the winter , management set up stands in right field , parallel to 20th Street . Some 20 feet high , these `` east stands '' had 22 rows of seats . The goalposts stood along the first base line and in left field . The uncovered east stands enlarged capacity of Shibe Park to over 39,000 , but the Eagles rarely drew more than 25 to 30,000 . The Eagles struggled over the course of their first decade , enduring repeated losing seasons . In December 1940 , Pittsburgh Steelers owner Art Rooney sold his franchise to Alexis Thompson for $160,000 and then used half of the proceeds to buy a half interest in the Eagles from Bell , his longtime friend . Soon after , Bell and Rooney traded the Eagles franchise to Thompson and moved it to Pittsburgh ( as the `` Steelers '' ) , while Thompson moved the Steelers franchise to Philadelphia ( as the `` Eagles '' ) . In 1943 , when manpower shortages stemming from World War II made it impossible to fill the roster , the team merged with the Pittsburgh Steelers forming the `` Phil - Pitt Eagles '' and were known as the `` Steagles . '' ( The merger , never intended as a permanent arrangement , was dissolved at the end of the 1943 season . ) By the late 1940s , head coach Earle `` Greasy '' Neale and running back Steve Van Buren led the team to three consecutive NFL Championship Games , winning two of them in 1948 and 1949 . Those two championships mark the Eagles as the only NFL team ever to win back - to - back championships by shutouts , defeating the Chicago Cardinals , 7 -- 0 , in 1948 -- in a blizzard -- and the Los Angeles Rams , 14 -- 0 , in 1949 . After the 1957 season , the Eagles moved from Connie Mack Stadium to Franklin Field at the University of Pennsylvania . Franklin Field would seat over 60,000 for the Eagles , whereas Connie Mack had a capacity of 39,000 . The stadium switched from grass to AstroTurf in 1969 . It was the first NFL stadium to use artificial turf . In 1960 , the Eagles won their third NFL championship , under the leadership of future Pro Football Hall of Famers Norm Van Brocklin and Chuck Bednarik ; the head coach was Buck Shaw . The 1960 Eagles , by a score of 17 -- 13 , became the only team to defeat Vince Lombardi and his Green Bay Packers in the playoffs . Dick Vermeil , Eagles head coach from 1976 to 1982 1961 -- 1975 The Eagles had a decent 1961 season and then fell on hard times in 1962 . Jerry Wolman , after consulting his longtime friend Brandon Sturrock , bought the franchise in 1963 from the `` Happy Hundred '' , a group of investors who owned the team from 1949 -- 1963 , for $5,505,000 ( equal to $44,004,098 today ) . In 1969 , Leonard Tose bought the Eagles from Wolman for $16,155,000 ( equal to $107,807,505 today ) , then a record for a professional sports franchise . Tose 's first official act was to fire Coach Joe Kuharich after a disappointing 24 -- 41 -- 1 record during his five - year reign . He followed this by naming former Eagles receiving great Pete Retzlaff as General Manager and Jerry Williams as coach . The Eagles defeated the Cowboys in the 1980 NFC Championship Game and earned their first Super Bowl appearance . With the merger of the NFL and AFL in 1970 , the Eagles were placed in the NFC East Division with their archrivals the New York Giants , the Washington Redskins , and the Dallas Cowboys . Their heated rivalry with the Giants is the oldest of the NFC East rivalries , dating all the way back to 1933 and is often named as one of the best rivalries in the NFL . 1976 -- 1984 In 1976 , Dick Vermeil was hired from UCLA to coach the Eagles , who had only one winning season from 1962 -- 1975 . Starting in 1978 , head coach Dick Vermeil and quarterback Ron Jaworski led the team to four consecutive playoff appearances . Vermeil 's 1980 team won their first NFC East title . They were matched up against their hated rival the Dallas Cowboys in the NFC Championship game , which they won 20 -- 7 . However , the Eagles lost to the Oakland Raiders in Super Bowl XV in 1981 . The following year , the Eagles were eliminated in the wildcard round at home against the New York Giants . In the aftermath of the disappointing and strike - shortened season of 1982 , head coach Dick Vermeil resigned , claiming that he was `` burned out '' . Vermeil was replaced by defensive coordinator Marion Campbell . In January 1983 , Tose announced that his daughter , Susan Fletcher , the Eagles ' vice president and legal counsel , would eventually succeed him as primary owner of the Eagles . Then in 1984 , rumors were circulating that Leonard Tose was thinking about moving the team to Phoenix , Arizona due to financial reasons . 1985 -- 1993 This section does not cite any sources . Please help improve this section by adding citations to reliable sources . Unsourced material may be challenged and removed . ( December 2016 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) In 1985 , Tose was forced to sell the Eagles to Norman Braman and Ed Leibowitz , highly successful automobile dealers from Florida , for a reported $65 million ( equal to $147,899,134 today ) to pay off his more than $25 million ( equal to $56,884,282 today ) in gambling debts at Atlantic City casinos . Philadelphia football struggled through the Marion Campbell years of the mid-1980s and was marked by a malaise in fan participation . However , in the 1985 Supplemental draft , the Eagles acquired the rights to Memphis Showboats ' elite pass rusher Reggie White . In 1986 , the arrival of head coach Buddy Ryan and his fiery attitude rejuvenated team performance and ignited the fan base , but the Eagles failed to win a playoff game during Ryan 's tenure . Possibly the worst of these losses was the so - called Fog Bowl in 1988 against the Chicago Bears , which happened to be Ryan 's former team that he helped lead to a Super Bowl XX victory as defensive coordinator . Ryan was fired on January 7 , 1991 , after an upset home playoff loss to the Redskins . Offensive coordinator Rich Kotite was promoted to head coach three days later . After All Pro defensive tackle Jerome Brown was killed in an automobile accident , the team and fanbase became dedicated to `` bring it home for Jerome '' in the 1992 season . Kotite did lead the Eagles to a playoff victory against the New Orleans Saints during the 1992 season , but they lost all - time sacks leader Reggie White to free agency in the offseason . Kotie 's contract was not renewed after a disappointing 1994 season in which the Eagles went 7 -- 9 , losing their last seven games after starting the season 7 -- 2 . From 1988 to 1996 , the Eagles qualified for the playoffs during six out of those nine seasons , but they won the NFC East only once , in 1988 . Among the team 's offensive stars during that period were quarterback Randall Cunningham , tight end Keith Jackson , and running back Herschel Walker . But the `` Gang Green '' defense is possibly what defined the team , led by Reggie White , Jerome Brown , Clyde Simmons , Seth Joyner , Wes Hopkins , Mike Golic , Byron Evans , Eric Allen , Andre Waters and Mark McMillian . Lurie era ( 1994 -- present ) This section needs additional citations for verification . Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources . Unsourced material may be challenged and removed . ( December 2010 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) Andy Reid speaks with Jeff Garcia in a game against the Redskins . Jeffrey Lurie bought the Eagles on May 6 , 1994 from then - owner Norman Braman for an estimated $185 million . The club is now estimated to be the 17th most valuable sports team , worth $1.314 billion , as valuated in 2014 by Forbes . In Lurie 's first season as owner , the team only had 7 wins , but that was followed by a 10 win season in 1995 . Besides the 10 wins and a playoff berth , 1996 was an eventful year . The uniforms changed from the classic shade of Kelly Green to a darker midnight green , quarterback Randall Cunningham left after 11 seasons , and future fan favorite 13 - year starter Brian Dawkins was drafted in the 2nd round . After slipping to 6 -- 9 -- 1 , and then to 3 -- 13 , head coach Ray Rhodes was fired after four seasons . Andy Reid era ( 1999 -- 2012 ) Jeffrey Lurie has been owner since 1994 . In 1999 , the Eagles hired head coach Andy Reid and drafted quarterback Donovan McNabb . From 1999 until 2004 , the team continually improved , going from 5 -- 11 in 1999 , returning to the playoffs in with an 11 -- 5 record in 2000 , surpassing the Buccaneers in the Wild Card round before losing in the divisional . Moreover , the Eagles played in four straight NFC Championship Games between 2001 and 2004 . In 2001 , the Eagles stayed at 11 -- 5 , beating the Buccaneers and Bears to advance to the NFC championship , where they lost to the St. Louis Rams . In 2002 , the Eagles drafted running back Brian Westbrook , got the 1st round bye with the 2nd seed in the NFC with a 12 -- 4 record , but the Tampa Bay Buccaneers got their revenge in the Championship and eliminated the Eagles . In 2003 , they won the NFC first seed , but Westbrook went down in Week 17 , culminating in a loss to the Carolina Panthers in their 3rd straight NFC Championship . 2004 season and Super Bowl XXXIX In 2004 , the Philadelphia Eagles had their best season since 1960 , going 13 -- 1 before resting their starters and losing their next 2 , clinching the 1st seed for the second year in a row . McNabb set career highs , completing 64 % of his passes for 3,875 yards , though he did n't play all 16 games . McNabb became the first quarterback ever to throw more than 30 touchdowns and fewer than 10 interceptions in a season . His success could be attributed to the fact that he had a reliable receiver , Terrell Owens , who got 1,200 yards and 14 touchdowns in 14 games . After beating the Vikings and Falcons the Eagles advanced to Super Bowl XXXIX , where they dueled the New England Patriots . Although McNabb threw 3 touchdown passes and 357 yards in the game , and the score was tied 14 -- 14 going into the fourth quarter , the Patriots outscored the Eagles and scored ten straight points . McNabb completed a 30 - yard touchdown pass , and the Eagles defense held the Patriots to a 3 and out , but a crucial interception with 46 seconds left on the clock secured their fate . 2005 - 2012 Brian Dawkins was one of the premier safeties in the NFL , and earned him the role of Eagles ' defensive captain , and a mainstay on the Eagles . The team took a step back in 2005 with a 6 -- 10 record . McNabb had played with a sports hernia and a broken thumb , starting 4 -- 2 but losing three in a row , before McNabb finally succumbs to injury and is out for the rest of the season . For obnoxious behavior and a feud with McNabb , Owens was suspended after 7 games , eventually being cut . In 2006 , the team lost McNabb 10 games in and went into turmoil , but Westbrook stepped up , and the Eagles earned their fifth NFC East title under Coach Reid , with a 10 -- 6 record and a win in the wild card round , but they had an 8 -- 8 2007 season . In 2008 , the team won their 500th game , and they also drafted DeSean Jackson , a receiving threat when paired with McNabb . On January 11 , 2009 , the team defeated the defending Super Bowl champion and 1st seed New York Giants 23 -- 11 en route to their 5th NFC Championship Game in 8 years and 5th in the 10 years the Eagles have been coached by Andy Reid . In the 2008 NFC Championship Game , the Eagles made a rally , going from 24 -- 6 at halftime to 25 -- 24 with three minutes left in the 4th , but they lost to the Arizona Cardinals by a score of 32 -- 25 after quarterback Kurt Warner scored a last minute touchdown . As of the conclusion of the 2016 season , during the Lurie era , the Eagles are 1 -- 4 in conference championship games and 0 -- 1 in Super Bowls . On August 13 , 2009 , the Eagles signed quarterback Michael Vick . On December 6 , 2009 , Andy Reid became only the 5th coach in NFL history to win 100 or more games with a single team in a single decade . The other four are Tom Landry , Don Shula , Tony Dungy , and Bill Belichick , all Super Bowl winners . McNabb finally had a complete receiving corps , between first round draft pick Jeremy Maclin , DeSean Jackson 's 1,000 yard season , and Brent Celek ranking among the top 5 tight ends in the league . Without Brian Dawkins , defensive end Trent Cole stepped up and became the dominant force on defense with 12 sacks , earning him his second trip to the Pro Bowl and All - Pro honors . In 2009 , the Eagles started 5 -- 4 , but moved up to 11 -- 4 , and could clinch the NFC 2nd seed if they won their next game . After a shutout at the hands of the Dallas Cowboys in week 17 , the Eagles missed the 1st round bye. but with a record of 11 -- 5 , but they were the NFC 6th seed and they narrowly made the playoffs . In the 2009 NFC Wild Card Game , the Eagles played against the Cowboys for the second consecutive week and lost 34 -- 14 . Despite many errors from many players , and a great season before the breakdown in Dallas , McNabb took the brunt of the blow and was heavily criticized . Coach Andy Reid said up until April 1 , 2010 , that McNabb would remain the starter . On March 5 , 2010 , Brian Westbrook was cut from the Eagles after eight seasons with the team . On April 4 , 2010 , the team traded long - time starting quarterback Donovan McNabb to the Washington Redskins in exchange for a second round draft pick . Kevin Kolb was immediately named the starter , but after suffering a concussion in week 1 against the Packers , Vick took over as the starter . Vick led the Eagles to its sixth NFC East division title in ten seasons . With a record of 10 -- 6 the Eagles clinched the 3rd seed and had to play a Wild Card Playoff Game . During the 2010 NFC Wild Card Game , the Eagles faced off against the eventual Super Bowl champion Green Bay Packers and lost 21 -- 16 . The 2011 season for the Eagles was a major disappointment , as they only managed to finish 8 -- 8 and did not qualify for the playoffs , although they did win the last 4 games of the season . Because of several free agent acquisitions , Vince Young , a back up quarterback , stated that the Eagles were a Dream Team . The Philadelphia fan base and faithful never did concur with the comment as some national outlets may comment . Many Eagles fans believe that Vince Young saying that the Eagles were a ' Dream Team ' is the reason that the Eagles had such a horrible season . Eagles fans had high expectations going into the 2012 season . The Eagles started off winning three out of their four first games , but that changed when they lost the next eight games , and were eliminated from the playoff hunt . They only won one out of their last four games . After a loss to the New York Giants on December 30 , 2012 , longtime head coach Andy Reid was fired after fourteen seasons with the team . Chip Kelly era ( 2013 -- 2015 ) On January 16 , 2013 , the Eagles brought in University of Oregon head coach Chip Kelly to succeed Reid as head coach after a 4 -- 12 season . The Philadelphia Eagles named Michael Vick starting quarterback going into the 2013 season with much promise running Chip Kelly 's fast - paced spread offense . The 2013 season proved to be more successful for the Eagles . A hamstring injury took Michael Vick out after a 1 -- 3 start , but his backup , Nick Foles , led the team to a 10 -- 6 regular season record , and its seventh NFC East title in 13 seasons . Before throwing his first interception in Week 14 , Foles threw 19 touchdowns , which was just one shy of the all - time NFL record of consecutive touchdowns without an interception to start a season , set earlier in the season by Peyton Manning . Foles also tied Manning for most touchdown passes in a single - game with seven against the Oakland Raiders which also made him the youngest player in NFL history to throw that many touchdowns in a game . Foles finished the regular season with 27 touchdown passes and only 2 interceptions , giving him the then - best TD - INT ratio in NFL history . ( That record was later broken by Tom Brady , in the 2016 season . ) He also finished with a 119.0 passer rating , third highest in league history behind only Aaron Rodgers in 2011 and Peyton Manning in 2004 . He was also only the second quarterback in NFL history to have a game in which he topped 400 passing yards and a perfect passer rating . LeSean McCoy finished his Pro Bowl season as the league 's top rusher with 1,607 rushing yards ( also a franchise record ) and 2,146 total yards from scrimmage , also best in the NFL . As a whole , the Eagles offense scored 51 touchdowns , most in franchise history passing the previous season high set back in 1948 . The Eagles opened the 2014 season winning their first three games and making NFL history as the only team ever to trail by ten or more points in their first three games and come back to win . Nick Foles struggled with turnovers , but ultimately did well and led the Eagles to a 6 -- 2 record , before breaking his collarbone , resulting in his job getting taken over by Mark Sanchez , who outplayed Foles despite facing more playoff teams . The Eagles held the divisional title from week one to week 15 against the Cowboys . After going 9 -- 3 with their crucial win over the Cowboys , the Eagles lost their next 3 , and a week after losing the NFC East title , they lost an upset against the 3 -- 11 Redskins and were eliminated from playoff contention with the Cowboys ' win over the Colts . Following the 2014 season , Chip Kelly was given total control and made some controversial moves . He traded LeSean McCoy , who had become the team 's all - time leading rusher after the 2014 season , for linebacker Kiko Alonso , a player Kelly coached at Oregon who had missed the entire 2014 season . He also cut ten - year veteran and starter , Trent Cole , who was still a consistent threat on defense and was second only to legend Reggie White on the Eagles all - time sack list . He also made a trade where the highly successful Nick Foles was traded for Sam Bradford , who had missed the entire 2014 season with an ACL tear . Kelly tried to re-sign Jeremy Maclin , who had stepped up as the team 's leading wide receiver , but he signed with the Kansas City Chiefs instead . However , the Eagles also acquired league leading rusher DeMarco Murray , which not only helped the Eagles , but hurt their rivals , the Dallas Cowboys . They also obtained Super Bowl champion Byron Maxwell , who left the Seattle Seahawks in free agency to sign a six - year , $63 million contract . The first two games of the season were disastrous , as they started 0 -- 2 . Bradford had a 2 -- 4 TD - INT ratio , Maxwell was constantly beaten by Falcons receiver Julio Jones , and Murray was held to 11 yards on 21 carries . After Murray was injured , Ryan Mathews rushed for over 100 yards in a Week 3 win against the New York Jets . Kelly made Murray the unquestioned starter and although Murray 's play improved over the season , he never regained his dominant form and was held to a career low 3.6 yards per carry average . On December 29 , 2015 , with one game left in the season , head coach Chip Kelly was released by the Eagles . Offensive Coordinator Pat Shurmur was named Interim Coach for the final game against the rival New York Giants , which Shurmur won 35 -- 30 . Former player and current running backs coach Duce Staley was the first coach to be interviewed for the opening head coaching job on January 2 , 2016 . Doug Pederson era ( 2016 -- present ) 2016 Carson Wentz made his debut in the 2016 season The Eagles hired Chiefs offensive coordinator Doug Pederson as their next head coach . The team made the official announcement on January 18 , 2016 . Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie said in a statement : `` Doug is a strategic thinker , a compelling leader and communicator , and someone who truly knows how to get the best out of his players . All of these factors were what initially attracted us to Doug and we believe that he is the right man to help us achieve our ultimate goal . '' Pederson had been with the Chiefs for the preceding three years after spending the four seasons previous to those with the Eagles . He served as a quality control assistant for the Eagles in 2009 and 2010 before being promoted to quarterbacks coach for the 2011 and 2012 seasons . He was praised for his work with Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith over the preceding few seasons , particularly 2015 , as the Chiefs moved into the top 10 in scoring offense . At the end of the 2015 season , the Eagles had the 13th pick in the 2016 NFL Draft . They traded Byron Maxwell , Kiko Alonso , and their pick to the Miami Dolphins for the # 8 pick . Later , they traded the # 8 pick , their third - round pick , their fourth - round pick , a 2017 first - round pick , and a 2018 second - round pick to the Cleveland Browns for the # 2 pick and a 2017 fourth - round pick . They used the # 2 pick to draft North Dakota State quarterback Carson Wentz . On September 3 , 2016 , the Eagles traded starting quarterback Sam Bradford to the Minnesota Vikings , who had lost Teddy Bridgewater for the season , for a 2017 first - round pick and a 2018 fourth - round pick . Following the trade , the Eagles named Wentz the starting quarterback for Week 1 of the 2016 season . First - time head coach Pederson led the Eagles to a 3 -- 0 start to the season . His rookie quarterback started with 5 touchdowns , no interceptions and over 255 yards per game . The Week 4 bye took a toll on the Eagles , and they lost four out of the next five games , including a loss to every rival team in their division . They also lost right tackle Lane Johnson to a 10 - game suspension following the Week 5 loss againist the Lions which damaged Carson Wentz 's hot start . In those four games , their average margin of loss was just under 5 points . Pederson and the Eagles won just 3 of their last 7 games . Those included gruesome road losses against the Seattle Seahawks , the Cincinnati Bengals , and the Baltimore Ravens . Although Wentz started off the season well , the 6 -- 5 quarterback finished with a TD -- INT ratio of 16 : 14 . The rookie head coach and rookie quarterback tandem led the Eagles to a disappointing year , finishing with a 7 -- 9 record and coming in last in the division . 2017 : first Super Bowl Championship During the following offseason , the team made several acquisitions on the offensive side of the ball . The Eagles either traded or released notable players from the Chip Kelly era like Ryan Mathews , Matt Tobin , Allen Barbre , Jordan Matthews and Marcus Smith II . They signed more notable players to improve its wide receiver corps that have struggled the last two seasons like Alshon Jeffery , and Torrey Smith as well as 2016 Super Bowl champion , Legarrette Blount . They also added veterans on defense such as Patrick Robinson , Chris Long , Corey Graham , Tim Jernigan and Ronald Darby . The team addressed its defense mostly in the draft , using its top three picks on defensive players . The Eagles drafted Derek Barnett with the 14th overall pick . The Eagles had completely revamped their offense and strengthened their defense heading into the 2017 season . They opened the season on the road versus the Washington Redskins and won the game 30 -- 17 . The team lost to the Kansas City Chiefs the following week , 27 -- 20 , in Pederson 's return to face Andy Reid . The Eagles then won six consecutive games , including signature wins at the Carolina Panthers , 28 -- 23 , and versus the Washington Redskins , 34 -- 24 , in a Monday Night contest . On the morning of October 31 , 2017 , just before the NFL trade deadline , the Eagles made a blockbuster move sending a fourth - round pick to the Miami Dolphins for star running back Jay Ajayi . The move immediately paid dividends for the Eagles heading into their next game versus the Denver Broncos as Ajayi rushed for 77 yards on just eight attempts including a 46 - yard TD near the end of the second quarter . Ajayi and Wentz led the Eagles to a 51 -- 23 rout of the top defense in the NFL . Foles in the Huddle before leaving the field before Super Bowl LII . The Eagles headed into their bye week with the best record in the NFL ( 8 -- 1 ) , and with Wentz leading the NFL MVP discussion with an NFL - leading 23 touchdowns to 5 interceptions . During their bye , the Eagles signed former Giants offensive tackle Will Beatty and former Saints linebacker Dannell Ellerbe to not only add depth but also players with Super Bowl experiences . Coming off of the bye week , the Philadelphia Eagles entered a Sunday night showdown with the defending NFC East champion Dallas Cowboys . The Eagles came out sluggish and trailed 9 -- 7 at the half . The team exploded in the second half though , rattling off 30 unanswered points to soundly defeat their rival by a final score of 37 -- 9 . The Eagles were rolling on a nine - game winning streak after a huge blowout win over the Chicago Bears . The Eagles traveled to Seattle in Week 13 in a huge Sunday Night showdown against Russell Wilson and the Seattle Seahawks . The Eagles struggled throughout the whole game , blowing many scoring opportunities and allowing Wilson to throw 3 touchdowns . The Eagles lost 24 -- 10 , ending their win streak . However , the Eagles bounced back in Week 14 win over the Los Angeles Rams in a tough 43 -- 35 win . However , Carson Wentz left the game in the third quarter with a knee injury . It was later found out that Wentz tore his ACL , ending his MVP caliber season . Backup Nick Foles would once again take over as starting quarterback . In Foles 's first start against the New York Giants , he would lead them back from a 20 -- 7 deficit and score 4 touchdowns and win the game 34 -- 29 . Foles struggled in the last two games of the season against the Oakland Raiders and the Dallas Cowboys , and threw a touchdown and 2 interceptions in that span . Despite this , the Eagles finished 13 -- 3 and secured the top seed in the NFC . The Eagles opened as the underdogs , the first time in history that a No. 1 seed has opened up the postseason as an underdog . Despite this , Foles would lead the Eagles past the Atlanta Falcons in the Divisional Round 15 -- 10 . In the next game Foles and the Eagles annihilated the Minnesota Vikings 38 -- 7 in the NFC Championship nicknamed the Minneapolis Massacre , mocking the Minneapolis Miracle from their previous playoff victory . Foles had his best game since week 15 and threw for 352 passing yards and 3 touchdowns including an impressive flea flicker touchdown pass . This win marked the franchise 's third Super Bowl appearance and a berth in Super Bowl LII for a 2005 rematch against Tom Brady and the New England Patriots . With Foles at the helm , the Eagles started off the game strong , leading the Patriots 22 -- 12 at halftime . In the second half the Patriots gained momentum and for the first time took the lead in the 4th quarter 33 -- 32 . The Eagles rallied back and scored an 11 - yard Touchdown to tight end Zach Ertz . Later the Eagles converted on a 46 - yard field goal by Jake Elliott to lead 41 -- 33 . On the final play of the game with 9 seconds left , Brady threw a hail - mary pass directed toward tight end Rob Gronkowski which was bobbled by Patrick Robinson before being dropped in the end - zone as time expired , securing the win for the Eagles 41 -- 33 , and ending the 58 - year long championship drought . This would be Philadelphia 's first Super Bowl win and their fourth league championship ( their first championship since 1960 ) . Foles won Super Bowl MVP going 28 -- 43 with 373 passing yards , 3 touchdowns , and an interception . Nick Foles became the first backup quarterback to start and win a Super Bowl since his opponent Tom Brady won as the backup for Drew Bledsoe in 2001 .

The Giants lead the all - time series 84 -- 82 -- 2 . Three of the best known comebacks against the Giants are labeled as `` Miracle In The Meadowlands -- Herm Edwards '' , `` Miracle In The Meadowlands II -- Brian Westbrook '' and `` Miracle In The New Meadowlands -- DeSean Jackson '' . Dallas Cowboys Main article : Cowboys -- Eagles rivalry The Cowboys have been one of the Eagles ' biggest rivals . The Eagles won the first game in this rivalry 27 -- 25 on September 30 , 1960 . Dallas leads the all - time series 63 -- 51 -- 0 . They have been close in recent years , with Dallas winning 12 games from 2006 to the present while the Eagles have also won 12 . There is much hostility between the two teams ' fan bases , with incidents such as the 1989 Bounty Bowl . Washington Redskins Main article : Eagles -- Redskins rivalry Not as big as the rivalries between the Giants and Cowboys , that with division rivals Washington Redskins is still fierce . It started in 1934 when the Washington Redskins were first known as the Boston Redskin ; the Redskins defeated the Eagles 6 -- 0 , and lead the all - time series 85 -- 76 -- 6 . The rivalry has been very even since 2010 overall . However , the Eagles swept the Redskins during the 2017 season for the first time since the 2013 season . Pittsburgh Steelers Main article : Eagles -- Steelers rivalry The Eagles and Pittsburgh Steelers are both located in Pennsylvania and began play in 1933 . From that season , through 1966 , this was a major rivalry for both teams as both were part of the same division . In 1967 , they were placed in separate divisions but remained in the same conference for three years . Finally , in 1970 , the Steelers ( along with the Cleveland Browns and Baltimore Colts ) moved to the American Football Conference while the Eagles stayed with the rest of the old - line NFL teams in the National Football Conference . As a result , the Eagles and Steelers no longer played each other every year . Currently they are scheduled to meet once every four years in the regular season , the most recent meeting being in 2016 at Philadelphia , with the Eagles winning 34 - 3 . The Steelers have lost nine straight games on the road against the Eagles dating back to 1966 , which was also the start of the Super Bowl era . The Eagles lead the all - time series 47 -- 28 -- 3 . Logo and uniforms See also : Uniform ( American football ) and footnote about Eagles ' uniform numbers . For several decades , the Eagles ' colors were kelly green , silver , and white . In 1954 , the Eagles , along with the Baltimore Colts , became the second team ever in the NFL to put a logo on their helmets , with silver wings on a kelly green helmet . In 1969 , the team wore two helmet versions : Kelly green with white wings in road games , and white with kelly green wings at home . From 1970 to ' 73 , they wore the white helmets with Kelly green wings exclusively before switching back to Kelly green helmets with silver wings . By 1974 , Joseph A. Scirrotto Jr. designed the silver wings took on a white outline , and this style on a kelly green helmet became standard for over two decades . From 1948 -- 95 , the team logo was an eagle in flight carrying a football in its claws , although from ' 69 -- 72 , the eagle took on a more stylized look . As the design was similar to the Apollo 11 emblem , and its moon - landing craft was dubbed Eagle , players wore the flight 's mission patch on their jerseys during 1969 . In 1973 , the team 's name was added below the eagle , which returned to its pre - ' 69 look . However , both the logo and uniforms were radically altered in 1996 . The primary kelly green color was changed to a darker shade , officially described as `` midnight green . '' Silver was practically abandoned , as uniform pants moved to either white or midnight green . The traditional helmet wings were changed to a primarily white color , with silver and black accents . The team 's logo combination ( the eagle and club name lettering ) also changed in 1996 , with the eagle itself limited to a white ( bald eagle ) head , drawn in a less realistic , more cartoon - based style , and the lettering changing from calligraphic to block letters . Since the 1996 alterations , the team has made only minor alterations , mostly relating to jersey / pant combinations worn during specific games . For example , in 1997 , against the San Francisco 49ers , the team wore midnight green jerseys and pants for the first of only two occasions in team history . The second occasion was in 2002 , during the final regular season game at Veterans Stadium , a win over the division - rival Washington Redskins . A year later , in the first two games of the 2003 season ( both home losses to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New England Patriots ) , the Eagles wore white jerseys with white pants . Since 2003 , the white jerseys along with white pants have been worn during preseason games . The 2003 season also saw the first ( though only subtle ) change to the 1996 - style uniform . On both white and green jerseys , black shadows and silver trim were added to both the green and white numbering . The stripe on the pants changed from black - green - black to black - silver - green on the white pants , and from a solid black stripe to one stripe of black , another of silver , with one small white stripe in between for the midnight blue pants . The 2003 season also saw the team debut black alternate jerseys , with a green ( instead of black ) shadow on white numbers , and silver trim . These black jerseys have been worn for two selected home games each season ( usually the first home game after bye week and the season finale ) . In the 2003 and 2004 regular season home finales , the team wore the green road pants with the black alternate jerseys , but lost each game . Since then , the Eagles have only worn the black jerseys with the white pants . However , due to the special 75th anniversary uniforms serving as the `` alternates '' for one game in 2007 , the Eagles could not wear the alternate black jersey that season per league rules ( alternate uniforms are permitted twice per season but only one can be used ) . The black jerseys with white pants , however , re-appeared for the 2008 Thanksgiving night game against the Arizona Cardinals . The black jerseys were most recently used in a December 21 , 2016 game against the New York Giants , in which they won 24 - 19 . From 2006 -- 2013 , the Eagles have only worn the alternate black jerseys once a season and for the last November home game , but did not use them in 2007 , 2010 , and 2011 . For the 2007 and 2010 seasons , the Eagles used throwback uniforms in place of the black alternates for their anniversary to commemorate past teams . The team also started wearing black shoes exclusively in 2004 . Since 2014 , the Eagles have worn the black jersey twice per season . In 2016 , they wore the black jersey three times . To celebrate the team 's 75th anniversary , the 2007 uniforms featured a 75th - season logo patch on the left shoulder . In addition , the team wore `` throwback '' jerseys in a 2007 game against the Detroit Lions . The yellow and blue jerseys , the same colors found on Philadelphia 's city flag , are based on those worn by the Philadelphia Eagles in the team 's inaugural season , and were the same colors used by the former Frankford Yellow Jackets franchise prior to their suspension of operations in 1931 . The Eagles beat Detroit , 56 -- 21 . The Philadelphia Eagles wear their white jerseys at home for preseason games and daytime games in the first half of the regular season from September to mid-October when the temperature is warmer . In night contests in the first half of the regular season , the Eagles do not need to wear white at home since the temperature is cooler . However , there have been exceptions , such as the home opener against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2003 and the Washington Redskins in 2007 that were played at night . In late October or beginning in November , the Eagles start to wear their colors at home ( although they have done it earlier before ) , be it the midnight green jerseys or a third jersey . On one occasion the Eagles wore white at home after October in a meeting against the Dallas Cowboys on November 4 , 2007 to make the Cowboys wear their road blue jerseys . Since moving to Lincoln Financial Field in 2003 , the Eagles have worn white at home for at least their home opener , with the exceptions for the 2010 home opener ( see next paragraph ) , the 2011 home opener against the New York Giants , the 2016 home opener against the Cleveland Browns , and the 2017 home opener against the Giants . In the 2010 season against the Green Bay Packers , on September 12 , 2010 , the Eagles wore uniforms similar to the ones that were worn by the 1960 championship team in honor the 50th anniversary of that team . In weeks 4 and 6 of the 2010 season , the Eagles wore their white jerseys in a match - up against the Washington Redskins and Atlanta Falcons respectively before reverting to their midnight green jerseys for the rest of their home games . For the 2011 season , the Eagles did not wear white for any of their home games . For the 2012 season Nike took over from Reebok as the NFL 's official apparel licensee but the Eagles decided that they would not be adopting Nike 's `` Elite 51 '' uniform technology . Aside from the Nike logo replacing the Reebok logo , the only other change is the league - wide revision of the NFL shield on the uniform ( replacing the NFL Equipment logo ) , other than that the uniforms essentially remain unchanged . The Eagles also revived their black alternate jersey . For the 2013 season , the Eagles started to wear white pants , as an alternate to their green pants , with their white jerseys , in the regular season . For the 2014 season the Eagles have officially adopted the `` Elite 51 '' style uniform from Nike . Recently the team has discussed bringing back the `` Kelly Green '' uniforms similar to the uniforms worn in the 1960 NFL Championship season and which were last worn in the 2010 season opener vs. Green Bay . Traditionally kelly green , silver and white had been the official team color until 1996 season when it switched to the current `` Midnight Green '' uniforms . But due to the NFL rules and restrictions having a team go through a waiting period before any major uniform changes and alterations can be made , it would most likely be quite some time before any uniform changes are officially made . In Week 6 of 2014 against the New York Giants , the team introduced black pants to complement their black jerseys , giving them a blackout uniform set , the Eagles won the game 27 -- 0 . The victory was their first shutout in 18 years . The blackout uniform was most recently worn in a Week 16 victory , 19 - 10 , against the Raiders in 2017 . The Eagles are 6 -- 3 in their blackout uniforms : winning three times against the Giants and once against each of the Minnesota Vikings , Denver Broncos , and Oakland Raiders , and losing against the Seattle Seahawks , Arizona Cardinals , and Green Bay Packers . Training camp The Eagles previously held their preseason training camp from the end of July through mid-August each year at Lehigh University in Bethlehem , Pennsylvania in the Lehigh Valley . With the addition of new head coach Chip Kelly , the Eagles recently moved their training camp to the NovaCare Complex in Philadelphia . Training camps were previously held at Chestnut Hill Academy in 1935 , Saint Joseph 's University in 1939 and 1943 , Saranac Lake from 1946 -- 1948 , Hershey from 1951 -- 1967 , Albright College from 1968 -- 1972 , Widener University from 1973 -- 1979 , and West Chester University from 1980 -- 1995 . Fight song Further information : Fly , Eagles Fly This fight song is heard during Eagles ' home games after touchdowns and before the team is introduced prior to kickoff . Fans Full house at `` The Linc '' for a playoff game in January 2011 An Eagles fan in attendance at U.S. Bank Stadium celebrates following the team 's victory at Super Bowl LII . Eagles fans celebrating along Benjamin Franklin Parkway at the Eagles victory parade Devotion Although the method may vary , studies that attempt to rank the 32 fan bases in the NFL consistently place Eagles fans among the best in the league , noting their `` unmatched fervor . '' Eagles fans have numerous dedicated web communities , ranking the Eagles just behind the Phillies as the dominant Philadelphia sports presence on the web . The American City Business Journals , which conducts a regular study to determine the most loyal fans in the NFL , evaluates fans based primarily on attendance - related factors , and ranked Eagles fans third in both 1999 and 2006 . The 2006 study called the fans `` incredibly loyal '' , noting that they filled 99.8 % of the seats in the stadium over the previous decade . Forbes placed the Eagles fans first in its 2008 survey , which was based on the correlation between team performance and fan attendance . ESPN.com placed Eagles fans fourth in the league in its 2008 survey , citing the connection between the team 's performance and the mood of the city . The last home game which was blacked out on television in the Philadelphia market as a result of not being sold out was against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday , September 12 , 1999 , which was Andy Reid 's first home game as new head coach of the Eagles . The studies note that -- win or lose -- Eagles fans can be counted on to pack their stadium . As of August 2008 , the team had sold out 71 consecutive games , and 70,000 were on the team 's waiting list for season tickets . Despite finishing with a 6 -- 10 record in the 2005 season , the Eagles ranked second in the NFL in merchandise sales , and single - game tickets for the next season were sold out minutes after phone and Internet lines opened . Eagles fans have also been known to chant the famous , `` E-A-G-L-E-S -- Eagles ! ! '' at Flyers , Phillies , and 76ers games when the team is getting blown out late in a game and a loss is inevitable , signifying their displeasure with the given team 's performance , and that they are instead putting their hope into the Eagles . Bad behavior Along with their fierce devotion , Eagles fans have a reputation for bad behavior and sports - related violence , especially when the team plays its rivals . In If Football 's a Religion , Why Do n't We Have a Prayer ? , Jereé Longman described the fans of the 700 Level of Veterans Stadium as having a reputation for `` hostile taunting , fighting , public urination and general strangeness . '' So many incidents occurred at a 1997 game against the 49ers that at the following home game , Judge Seamus McCaffery began presiding over a temporary courtroom at the stadium ; 20 suspects came before him that day . Fan behavior improved after the team 's move to Lincoln Financial Field , and `` Eagles Court '' ended in December 2003 . Eagles Cheerleaders Eagles Cheerleaders doing a routine in 2008 .

In 2011 , CBS dropped the music on WYSP , renaming it WIP - FM and making it a full simulcast of WIP . Later , 610 AM became a CBS Sports Radio national broadcast , and 94 WIP was broadcast on WIP FM . The Eagles extended their broadcasting contract with WIP - FM through 2024 . Merrill Reese , who joined the Eagles in 1976 , is the play - by - play announcer , and former Eagles wide receiver Mike Quick , who replaced the offense lineman Stan Walters beginning in 1998 , is the color analyst . The post game show , which has consisted of many Philadelphia sports personalities , as of the 2014 season is hosted by Kevin Riley , a former Eagles linebacker and special - teamer , and Rob Ellis . Riley was the former post-game host for the show on 94 WYSP before the WIP change over ; Rob Ellis hosts a weekly show nightly from 6 -- 10 on 94.1 WIP - FM . No announcement was made prior to the start of preseason regarding who would be the host ( s ) for 2015 . In 2015 , the preseason games are being televised on WCAU , the local NBC owned and operated station . Television announcers for these preseason games were not announced prior to the start of preseason . During the regular season , games are governed by the NFL 's master broadcasting contract with FOX , CBS , NBC , and ESPN . Most games can be seen on FOX - owned WTXF - TV . When hosting an AFC team , those games can be seen on CBS - owned KYW - TV . Media and cultural reference In the book MASH : A Novel About Three Army Doctors , the character Captain Oliver Wendell `` Spearchucker '' Jones fictionally played for the Philadelphia Eagles , though in the movie this was changed to San Francisco . The 1976 draw was the subject of the movie Invincible . The movie stars Mark Wahlberg as Vince Papale , a 30 - year - old bartender and part - time school teacher , and also a diehard Eagles fan who became an Eagles player . The film differs slightly from true events as the selection process was invitation only , and Papale had at least some previous playing experience . The film Silver Linings Playbook highlights the 2008 Philadelphia Eagles season . The film was critically acclaimed and nominated for several awards including 8 Academy Awards . In the 1978 Academy Award - winning movie The Deer Hunter , the Eagles are referenced when Nick talks to Stan in the bar , saying : `` Hey , I got a hundred bucks says the Eagles never cross the fifty in the next half and Oakland wins by 20 ! '' Stan responds ; `` And I got an extra twenty says the Eagles ' quarterback wears a dress ! '' The award - winning comedy series It 's Always Sunny in Philadelphia starring Danny DeVito makes several references to the Philadelphia Eagles , most notably Season 3 , Episode 2 -- `` The Gang Gets Invincible , '' the title being a reference to the Wahlberg film .

The 113th edition of the World Series , it was played between October 24 and November 1 . The series was a best - of - seven playoff between the National League ( NL ) champion Los Angeles Dodgers and the American League ( AL ) champion Houston Astros . It was sponsored by the internet television service YouTube TV and officially known as the World Series presented by YouTube TV . The Astros defeated the Dodgers , four games to three , to win their first World Series in franchise history , and the first team from Texas to do so . Both teams set a World Series record with a combined total of 25 home runs throughout the entire series , including a team record 15 home runs by the Astros , and hit a combined total of eight home runs in Game 2 to set the single game World Series mark . Houston outfielder George Springer was named as the World Series Most Valuable Player ( MVP ) after hitting five home runs in the series to tie a World Series record with Reggie Jackson in 1977 and Dodgers ' 2017 World Series representative Chase Utley in 2009 when he played for the Philadelphia Phillies . This was the first World Series in which home - field advantage was decided by the regular season record of pennant winners . From 1903 to 2002 , home - field advantage alternated between the AL and NL , and from 2003 to 2016 , it was determined by results from that season 's All - Star Game , when it was awarded to the team from the winning league . With 104 regular season wins , the Dodgers earned home - field advantage over the Astros , who had 101 regular season wins . The series was played in a 2 -- 3 -- 2 format , with the Dodgers hosting Games 1 , 2 , 6 , and 7 ; and the Astros hosting Games 3 , 4 , and 5 .

Los Angeles defeated Houston in the 1981 National League Division Series in five games en route to its World Series championship that year . The teams also met in the 1980 National League West tie - breaker game . This was the first Fall Classic since 1970 , and the eighth overall , in which both participants had 100 or more wins during the regular season . With the Astros and Dodgers having waited a combined 84 years for a championship ( the Dodgers last won the World Series in 1988 , and the Astros had never won since their 1962 formation ) , this was the third straight year in which the World Series teams had waited a combined 50 years or more to win a World Series , following 2015 at 59 years and 2016 at 176 years . Both teams had not lost at home this postseason leading to the World Series . The two teams did not meet in interleague play during the regular season . Los Angeles Dodgers ( edit ) Main article : 2017 Los Angeles Dodgers season The Dodgers held a 91 -- 36 record through August 25 . However , a late season slump , in which the team lost 20 of 25 games ( highlighted by 11 straight losses ) , led to questions about whether the Dodgers would succeed in the postseason . Despite the slump , the team recovered to win eight of its final ten regular season games , securing their fifth consecutive National League West title and home field advantage throughout the playoffs . In the postseason , the Dodgers swept the Arizona Diamondbacks in the National League Division Series and defeated the defending World Series champion Chicago Cubs in the previous year 's rematch of the National League Championship Series in five games . This was the first appearance in the Fall Classic for the Dodgers since 1988 , the tenth since the franchise moved from Brooklyn to Los Angeles in 1958 , and the 19th overall . Entering the 2017 World Series , the Dodgers bullpen had thrown 23 consecutive scoreless innings , a postseason record for a bullpen . Additionally , by outscoring the Arizona Diamondbacks and Chicago Cubs by a combined 48 -- 19 margin , the Dodgers entered the World Series with the third - best run differential of any pennant winner since the playoff structure was expanded in 1995 . All - Star shortstop Corey Seager , who was out for the entire National League Championship Series with a back injury , was included on the Dodgers ' World Series roster . Manager Dave Roberts became first manager of Asian heritage ever in the World Series , as well as the fourth African - American manager . Houston Astros ( edit ) Main article : 2017 Houston Astros season The Astros wore a patch during the 2017 World Series in support of Hurricane Harvey victims in Houston With a 101 -- 61 regular season record , the team won its first American League West title since moving from the National League Central starting in its 2013 season , and their first division title since 2001 . In the American League Division Series , they defeated the Boston Red Sox in four games and then defeated the New York Yankees in the American League Championship Series ( ALCS ) in seven games . This was their second World Series appearance and first since 2005 , when they were swept in four games by the Chicago White Sox . They became the first team in history to make it to the World Series as members of both the National League and the American League . The city of Houston in August 2017 suffered record flooding from Hurricane Harvey . The team began to wear patches which had the logo of the team with the word `` Strong '' on the bottom of the patch , as well as promoting the hashtag Houston Strong . Manager A.J. Hinch has stated in an interview that the team was n't just playing for a title , but to help boost moral support for the city . On August 31 , just seconds before the midnight deadline , the Astros traded for Justin Verlander . Following the trade , including the regular season and postseason to this point , Verlander had posted a 9 -- 0 win - loss record with a 1.23 earned run average . He was named the ALCS MVP . Summary ( edit ) Houston won the series , 4 -- 3 .

The Astros scored first when Bregman drove in Josh Reddick with a hit in the third inning . Hill struck out seven in four innings but was replaced by Kenta Maeda in the fifth . Joc Pederson tied the game with a solo home run in the bottom of the fifth inning , and the Dodgers took the lead when Corey Seager hit a two - run home run in the bottom of the sixth inning . Verlander allowed two hits , both home runs , in his six innings pitched . Carlos Correa drove in the Astros ' second run of the game on a single in the eighth , ending the Dodgers bullpen 's streak of 28 consecutive scoreless innings in the postseason . Marwin González hit a home run off Jansen in the ninth to tie the game . This was only Jansen 's second blown save all season and snapped his streak of converting his first 12 postseason save opportunities , a major league record . The game went into extra innings . José Altuve and Correa hit home runs off Josh Fields in the tenth inning to put the Astros in the lead . In the bottom of the inning , Yasiel Puig hit a home run off of Ken Giles and Enrique Hernández drove in Logan Forsythe to tie the game , with the latter being the Dodgers ' first run that was not driven in by a home run . In the next inning , George Springer hit a two - run home run for the Astros off of Brandon McCarthy to retake the lead . In the bottom of the 11th inning , Charlie Culberson homered off of Chris Devenski , who later struck out Puig to end the game . This was the first ever World Series game in which a team hit home runs in the ninth , tenth and eleventh inning . The teams set a new record for combined home runs in a single World Series game with eight and this was the first time in MLB history , regular season or postseason , that five home runs were hit in extra innings . The Astros won their first World Series game in franchise history as they had been swept in their previous appearance in 2005 . Game 3 ( edit ) Lance McCullers Jr. earned the win in Game 3 . October 27 , 2017 , 7 : 21 pm ( CDT ) at Minute Maid Park in Houston , Texas , 65 ° F ( 18 ° C ) , roof closed Team 5 6 7 8 9 Los Angeles 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Houston 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 5 12 0 WP : Lance McCullers Jr. ( 1 -- 0 ) LP : Yu Darvish ( 0 -- 1 ) Sv : Brad Peacock ( 1 ) Home runs : LAD : None HOU : Yuli Gurriel ( 1 ) Attendance : 43,282 The starting pitchers for Game 3 were Yu Darvish for the Dodgers and Lance McCullers Jr. for the Astros . The Astros scored four runs in the bottom of the second inning on a home run by Yuli Gurriel and RBIs by González , Brian McCann , and Bregman . Darvish left the game after 1 ⁄ innings , which was the shortest outing of his career . The Dodgers scored one run in the top of the third inning as Seager grounded into a double play after McCullers loaded the bases with three consecutive walks . The Astros added another run in the fifth on an RBI single by Evan Gattis and the Dodgers added two in the sixth on an RBI groundout by Puig and a wild pitch . McCullers wound up pitching 5 ⁄ innings and allowed three runs on four hits . Brad Peacock replaced McCullers , completing the final 3 ⁄ innings with no hits allowed and four strikeouts to earn his first major league save . It was the longest hitless World Series relief outing since Ron Taylor 's four innings in Game 4 of the 1964 Series , and tied Ken Clay for the longest hitless postseason save , first accomplished in the 1978 ALCS . Gurriel made a racially insensitive gesture in the dugout after his home run . He stretched the sides of his eyes and mouthing the Spanish word chinito , which translates to `` little Chinese Boy '' ; Darvish is from Japan . Gurriel apologized , and said that anyone from Asia is called a chino in Cuba , although he acknowledged knowing that the term was offensive in Japan from having played there . As a result , Gurriel was suspended for the first five games of the 2018 MLB season without pay , but allowed to continue playing in the World Series . Game 4 ( edit ) Joc Pederson hit a three - run home run in Game 4 .

Springer homered off Wood in the bottom of the sixth for the first run of the ballgame . It was the only hit Wood allowed in 5 ⁄ innings pitched in the game . Forsythe drove in Cody Bellinger to tie the game in the top of the seventh . Morton struck out seven and only allowed three hits and one run in 6 ⁄ innings . Bellinger then drove in the go - ahead run with a double in the top of the ninth off of Giles and the Dodgers added four more runs on a sacrifice fly by Austin Barnes and a three - run homer by Pederson . Bregman homered off of Jansen in the bottom of the ninth but the Dodgers managed to even up the series . The Astros had two hits in the game ; both were home runs . This was the first game in World Series history where both starting pitchers allowed four or fewer baserunners . After Game 4 , both teams ' pitching coaches , Rick Honeycutt for the Dodgers and Brent Strom for the Astros , commented on how the baseball being used for the World Series is slicker than the baseball used during the regular season . Pitchers on both teams noted that this difference has made it more difficult for them to throw their sliders . Game 5 ( edit ) Alex Bregman drove in the game - winning run in Game 5 .

Forsythe singled in two runs off of Keuchel in the first inning to put the Dodgers up early . A third run scored on a throwing error by Gurriel . Barnes singled in the fourth to score Forsythe . Keuchel pitched only 3 ⁄ innings for the Astros , allowing five hits and four runs ( three earned ) . This was his shortest home start of the season . The Astros scored their first run with an RBI double by Correa in the bottom of the fourth inning , followed by a three - run home run by Gurriel to tie the game . Bellinger hit a three - run home run off of Collin McHugh in the top of the fifth to put the Dodgers back on top only for Altuve to hit his own three - run home run in the bottom of the inning off Maeda to tie it back up . Kershaw pitched 4 ⁄ innings and allowed six runs on four hits and three walks . A triple by Bellinger on a line drive that Springer missed on a dive in the seventh inning off of Peacock scored Hernández from first base . In the bottom of the seventh inning , Springer hit a home run off the first pitch he saw off of Morrow , who was pitching for the third consecutive day , to tie the game . Bregman scored on a double by Altuve to put the Astros ahead for the first time in the game , and then Correa hit a two - run home run to extend the lead . Seager doubled in a run in the top of the eighth inning , but McCann hit a home run in the bottom of the inning . That was the 21st home run of the series , tying the record set in the 2002 World Series . Puig broke the record with a two - run home run in the top of the ninth inning . Down to their last strike , Chris Taylor drove in Barnes to tie the game with a single . In the tenth inning , Jansen hit McCann with a pitch to put him on base with two outs . Subsequently , Springer walked on five pitches to move McCann to second base . McCann was then replaced by pinch runner Derek Fisher . On the next pitch , Bregman singled in Fisher for the winning run . Bregman became the third youngest player to have a walk - off hit in the World Series ever . The Astros became only the second team to come back twice from three runs down in a World Series game , the other were the Toronto Blue Jays in the 15 -- 14 win during Game 4 of the 1993 World Series . The six game tying home runs in the series to this point is the most for any World Series on record . This World Series set a new record for most players to hit a home run ( 14 to date in the World Series ) . With the teams combining to score 25 runs throughout the game , this was the highest scoring World Series game since the Florida Marlins defeated the Cleveland Indians 14 -- 11 in Game 3 of the 1997 World Series . Game 5 lasted five hours and seventeen minutes , making it the second longest World Series game in history by time , trailing only the 14 inning contest between the Astros and the Chicago White Sox in Game 3 of the 2005 World Series in the same ballpark , as well as the third World Series game ever to go beyond five hours of game time . This game is considered one of the greatest World Series games of all time . Game 6 ( edit ) Kenley Jansen recorded a two - inning save in Game 6 .

Springer hit a solo home run off of Hill in the top of the third for the first run of the night . It was Springer 's fourth homer of the series , tied for third all - time in a single series and joining Gene Tenace , in 1972 , as the only players with four game - tying or go - ahead home runs in a World Series . Springer also joined Hank Bauer in the 1958 World Series and Barry Bonds in the 2002 World Series with four home runs in a series . The Astros loaded the bases in the fifth inning , but did not score . Hill pitched 4 ⁄ innings , struck out five and allowed four hits and one run . In the sixth inning , Taylor tied the game with an RBI double and Seager hit a sacrifice fly to give the Dodgers the lead . Verlander pitched six innings with nine strikeouts and only three hits allowed . Pederson hit a home run in the bottom of the seventh inning and Jansen pitched two scoreless innings for the save . Pederson tied a World Series record with his fifth consecutive game with an extra base hit and Andre Ethier , who appeared in the game as a pinch hitter , set a new Dodgers franchise record with his 50th career postseason game .

It was also the first time since the 1931 World Series that a Game 7 occurred in a Series with both teams having won at least 100 games during the season . This was the first time since the 2001 World Series and 2002 World Series that back - to - back Fall Classics had a Game 7 . The starting pitchers for this game were the same as in the third game : McCullers and Darvish . Springer doubled to open the game and scored the first run on an error by Bellinger , which allowed Bregman to reach second base . Bregman stole third base and scored on an Altuve groundout . McCann scored the next inning on a groundout hit by the pitcher McCullers . Springer hit a two - run home run , his fifth of the series , tying Reggie Jackson and Chase Utley for most home runs in a single World Series and setting a new record with 29 total bases in any postseason series . As in Game 3 , Darvish lasted only 1 ⁄ innings ( tying the shortest outing of his career ) and became the third pitcher with two starts of less than two innings in a World Series , and the first since Art Ditmar in the 1960 World Series . Morrow relieved Darvish and in the process became only the second pitcher to pitch in all seven games of a single World Series , joining Darold Knowles in the 1973 World Series . McCullers lasted only 2 ⁄ innings himself ; he allowed three hits and hit a World Series record four batters . This was the first Game 7 in World Series history where neither starting pitcher got past the third inning . The Dodgers failed to score a run and left eight men on base through five innings . Ethier , pinch hitting , scored Pederson on a single in the sixth inning for the Dodgers ' only run . They only had one hit in 13 chances with runners in scoring position in the game . Kershaw pitched four scoreless innings of relief in the game , and in the process , he broke Orel Hershiser 's Dodgers postseason record with his 33rd strikeout . Morton pitched four innings of relief to earn the win , as Corey Seager grounded out to José Altuve , who threw to Yuli Gurriel to end the game , series , baseball season , with the Astros winning their first championship in franchise history , and ending their 56 - year drought . The Astros became the third consecutive road team to win a World Series Game 7 as well as the fourth consecutive team to end a World Series on the road ( after the 2014 Giants , 2015 Royals and 2016 Cubs ) . They also became just the second team to win a seven game League Championship Series and a seven game World Series in the same year , following the 1985 Kansas City Royals . Springer won the World Series MVP Award . Composite line score ( edit ) 2017 World Series ( 4 -- 3 ) : Houston Astros beat Los Angeles Dodgers .

Peter . The second Doctor Poison first appeared in Wonder Woman Vol. 2 # 151 and was created by Eric Luke and Matthew Clark . Fictional character biography ( edit ) Princess Maru ( edit ) Golden Age ( edit ) Doctor Poison first appeared as the chief of the poison division for a Nazi spy band who had planned to contaminate the United States Army 's water with `` Reverso , '' a drug that compels whoever takes it to `` do the exact opposite of what they are told . '' She disguised her sex by wearing a bulky hooded costume and a mask . Doctor Poison 's underlings captured Steve Trevor and brought him to their base in America where he was questioned by Doctor Poison . Wonder Woman , disguised as a nurse , aided Steve Trevor but was forced to flee the scene after a lengthy battle . Meanwhile , the Reverso drug was successful in turning thousands of American soldiers against their superiors . Wonder Woman recruited Etta Candy to help her create a diversion for Doctor Poison 's troops , which led to the defeat of the villain . When Wonder Woman pulled her disguise off , she discovered Doctor Poison to be Maru , a Japanese princess . Maru made one more attempt to defeat the amazon , but was tackled by Etta Candy and coerced into giving up the antidote . She was later taken into police custody . Later , Princess Maru escaped imprisonment and disguised herself as Mei Sing , a `` princess '' who worked in a Chinese nightclub . She once again captured Steve Trevor , who could n't see through her disguise . This led to another encounter with Wonder Woman , who Maru defeated with an anesthetic gas grenade . Maru had been perfecting a green gas which would clog the carburetors of the US planes . This plan was foiled once again by Wonder Woman . Instead of placing Maru back in prison , Wonder Woman sentenced her to Transformation Island , the Amazon penal colony where many female criminals were sent to reform . Although the majority of inmates have reformed with loving submission , Maru and seven other women refused to change their ways . The Saturnian slaver Eviless banded these rebellious super-villains together under the name Villainy Inc . Maru returned to her Doctor Poison disguise and tricked Queen Hippolyta into believing men had invaded Paradise Island . The villains were able to capture Hippolyta 's girdle , which they used to defeat Wonder Woman . Doctor Poison then joined Eviless , Blue Snowman , and Cheetah on a boat with the captive Wonder Woman , plotting to imprison the amazon on Transformation Island for revenge . Wonder Woman attempted to escape by turning the boat over , but the four members of Villainy Inc. defeated her once again . After traveling to Transformation Island , Eviless tortured Wonder Woman until the reformed criminal Irene led a mutiny against Villainy Inc . In the ensuing chaos , Wonder Woman and Hippolyta broke free of their chains and managed to defeat Doctor Poison and her three companions . Post-crisis ( edit ) After the events of Crisis on Infinite Earths , Doctor Poison was a founding member of Villainy Inc. , but the team was created by Queen Clea instead of Eviless . As part of Villainy Inc. , Doctor Poison battled Hippolyta , the first Wonder Woman , in the 1940s . It was later revealed by her granddaughter that she had died after creating the Reverso drug , as she accidentally reversed her own growth patterns and had forgotten the antidote by becoming too young too fast , eventually reverting to a fetus and then nothing . Marina Maru ( edit ) Post-crisis ( edit ) The grandchild of the original Doctor Poison , this second incarnation appears in league with the demi - goddess Devastation . Doctor Poison 's sex remains ambiguous , the only clues being long fingernails and a lipsticked grimace . She also joined the second Villainy Inc. and once again battled Wonder Woman . This incarnation of Doctor Poison confirmed that her grandmother did battle Queen Hippolyta as Wonder Woman during World War II . She also explains that her grandmother met her own demise by the creation of the drug called `` Reverso '' . The original Doctor Poison accidentally reversed her own growth patterns and had forgotten the antidote by becoming too young too fast , eventually reverting to a fetus and then nothing . Doctor Poison is one of the villains sent to retrieve the Get Out of Hell free card from the Secret Six . Doctor Poison was later asked to be a part of the Secret Society of Super Villains , which she accepted . Joining the other scientists on the team , she was assigned to collect soil samples from Logor Jasenovac , Croatia . She added her samples with that of other areas on Earth where genocide took place and helped create the new Wonder Woman villain Genocide . Following the Final Crisis , she was with Cheetah 's Secret Society of Super Villains . The new 52 ( edit ) In September 2011 , The New 52 rebooted DC 's continuity . In this new timeline , Doctor Maru is re-introduced as the Caucasian daughter of a Russian pair of scientists renowned for their knowledge of poisons . American spies had approached her parents as they thought the doctors ' expertise could lead to the United States ' domination in biological weaponry . When they refused , the Russian government discovered their practices . Her parents were branded terrorists by Russia , and imprisoned near Siberia where they died during interrogations . Doctor Poison blamed the United States for her parents ' deaths and planned to take revenge through chemical attacks . DC Rebirth ( edit ) After the events of DC Rebirth , Doctor Poison 's history had been altered . In the current continuity , she is Colonel Marina Maru , a Japanese soldier working for the organization called Poison which had been founded by her family . During Wonder Woman 's first few months in the United States , the amazon discovered a group of men infected with the Maru Virus , a poison that drives its victims to rage - induced murder . Ten years later after Wonder Woman had discovered she had been living a lie for several years , Veronica Cale sent Doctor Poison to attack the Amazon . Powers and abilities ( edit ) Doctor Poison is an expert in the use of poisons , toxins , and plagues . Other versions ( edit ) Wednesday Comics ( edit ) Doctor Poison appears in the Wonder Woman sections of anthology series Wednesday Comics . DC Super Friends ( edit ) Doctor Poison is among several scientist - themed super-villains who band together to fight the Super Friends in the story `` Weird Science '' from the series DC Super Friends . In other media ( edit ) Television ( edit ) A version of Doctor Poison appears in the Batman : The Brave and the Bold episode `` Joker : The Vile and the Villainous . '' She is seen working as a bartender at a tavern populated by D - list supervillains when Joker pays a visit to it and meets Weeper . Film ( edit ) Doctor Poison appears in the DC Extended Universe film Wonder Woman ( 2017 ) , portrayed by Elena Anaya . In this adaptation , her identity is Isabel Maru , a Spanish chemist recruited by General Erich Ludendorff to create chemical weapons for the German army . Due to facial disfigurement , she wears a ceramic mask over the left side of her face . It marks the character 's first live action appearance , although the setting is World War I rather than the World War II setting of the comic books . When Steve Trevor steals a book of Doctor Maru 's notes on her new chemical weapons that would render the gas masks useless against them , he crash - lands on Themyscira during his escape , which alerts Diana to the current war . She initially believes that Ares is directly responsible for the war , but later learns that all he did was provide a few ideas for the weapons to the likes of Maru while the decision to use the weapons was still the choice of the humans themselves . Ares attempts to sway Diana to his point of view by offering her a chance to kill Maru for her sins and part in the war , but Diana rejects his offer upon realizing of Trevor 's sacrifice that inspires her to recognize that she must accept humanity for its flaws rather than condemn it for not being perfect . This leads Diana to spare Maru out of mercy , who then flees . Video games ( edit ) Doctor Poison appears as a playable character in the mobile game DC Legends .

Summer of ' 42 - wikipedia Summer of ' 42 Jump to : navigation , search Summer of ' 42 Theatrical release poster Directed by Robert Mulligan Produced by Richard A. Roth Written by Herman Raucher Starring Jennifer O'Neill Gary Grimes Jerry Houser Oliver Conant Narrated by Robert Mulligan Music by Michel Legrand Cinematography Robert Surtees Edited by Folmar Blangsted Distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures Release date April 18 , 1971 ( 1971 - 04 - 18 ) Running time 104 minutes Country United States Language English Budget $1 million Box office $32,063,634 Summer of ' 42 is a 1971 American coming - of - age comedy - drama film based on the memoirs of screenwriter Herman Raucher . It tells the story of how Raucher , in his early teens on his 1942 summer vacation on Nantucket Island ( off the coast of Cape Cod ) , embarks on a one - sided romance with a young woman , Dorothy , whose husband had gone off to fight in World War II . The film was directed by Robert Mulligan , and starred Gary Grimes as Hermie , Jerry Houser as his best friend Oscy , Oliver Conant as their nerdy young friend Benjie , Jennifer O'Neill as Hermie 's mysterious love interest , and Katherine Allentuck and Christopher Norris as a pair of girls whom Hermie and Oscy attempt to seduce . Mulligan also has an uncredited role as the voice of the adult Hermie . Maureen Stapleton ( Allentuck 's real - life mother ) also appears in a small , uncredited voice role ( calling after Hermie as he leaves the house in an early scene , and after he enters his room in a later scene ) . Raucher 's novelization of his screenplay of the same name was released prior to the film 's release and became a runaway bestseller , to the point that audiences lost sight of the fact that the book was based on the film and not vice versa . Though a pop culture phenomenon in the first half of the 1970s , the novelization went out of print and slipped into obscurity throughout the next two decades until a Broadway adaptation in 2001 brought it back into the public light and prompted Barnes & Noble to acquire the publishing rights to the book .

We then hear Raucher recalling the summer he spent on the island in 1942 . The film flashes back to a day that then 15 - year - old `` Hermie '' and his friends -- jock Oscy and introverted nerd Benjie -- spent playing on the beach . They spot a young soldier carrying his new bride into a house on the beach , and are struck by her beauty , especially Hermie , who is unable to get her out of his mind . They continue spending afternoons on the beach where , in the midst of scantily - clad teenage girls , their thoughts invariably turn to sex . All of them are virgins : Oscy is obsessed with the act of sex , while Hermie finds himself developing romantic interest in the bride , whose husband he spots leaving the island on a water taxi one morning . Later that day , Hermie finds her trying to carry bags of groceries by herself , and helps get them back to her house . They strike up a friendship and he agrees to return to help her with chores . Meanwhile , Oscy and Hermie , thanks to a sex manual discovered by Benjie , become convinced they know everything necessary to lose their virginity . Led by Oscy , they test this by going to the cinema and picking - up a trio of high - school girls . Oscy stakes out the most attractive one , Miriam , `` giving '' Hermie her less attractive friend , Aggie , and leaving Benjie with Gloria , a heavyset girl with braces . Frightened by the immediacy of sex , Benjie runs off , and is not seen by Hermie or Oscy again that night . Hermie and Oscy spend the entirety of the evening 's film attempting to `` put the moves '' on Miriam and Aggie . Oscy pursues Miriam , eventually making out with her during the movie , and later learns her ways are well - known on the island . Hermie finds himself succeeding with Aggie , who allows him to grope what he thinks is her breast ; Oscy later points out Hermie was fondling her arm . The next morning , Hermie helps the bride move boxes into her attic and she thanks him by giving him a kiss on the forehead . Later , in preparation for a marshmallow roast on the beach with Aggie and Miriam , Hermie goes to the local drugstore . In a painfully humorous sequence , he builds up the nerve to ask the druggist ( Lou Frizzell ) for condoms . That night , Hermie roasts marshmallows with Aggie while Oscy succeeds in having sex with Miriam between the dunes . He is so successful he sneaks over to Hermie and Aggie to ask for more condoms . Confused as to what 's happening , Aggie follows Oscy back , where she sees him having sex with Miriam and runs home , upset . The next day , Hermie comes across the bride sitting outside her house , writing to her husband . Hermie offers to keep her company that night and she says she looks forward to seeing him , revealing her name is Dorothy . An elated Hermie goes home and puts on a suit , dress shirt and heads back to Dorothy 's house , running into Oscy on the way ; Oscy relates that Miriam 's appendix burst and she 's been rushed to the mainland . Hermie , convinced he is at the brink of adulthood because of his relationship with Dorothy , brushes Oscy off . He heads to her house , which is eerily quiet . Going in , he discovers a bottle of whiskey , several cigarette butts , and a telegram from the government . Dorothy 's husband is dead , his plane shot down over France . Dorothy comes out of her bedroom , crying , and Hermie tells her `` I 'm sorry . '' The sense of empathy triggers her to channel to Hermie some of her loneliness . She turns on the record player and invites Hermie to dance with her . They kiss and embrace , tears on both their faces . Without speaking , and to the sound only of the waves , they move to the bedroom , where she draws him into bed and gently makes love with him . Afterward , withdrawing again into her world of hurt , Dorothy retires to the porch , leaving Hermie alone in her bedroom . He approaches her on the porch , where she can only quietly say `` Good night , Hermie . '' He leaves , his last image of Dorothy being of her leaning against the railing , as she smokes a cigarette and stares into the night sky . At dawn Hermie meets Oscy and the two share a moment of reconciliation , with Oscy informing Hermie that Miriam will recover . Oscy , in an uncharacteristic act of sensitivity , lets Hermie be by himself , departing with the words , `` Sometimes life is one big pain in the ass . '' Trying to sort out what has happened , Hermie goes back to Dorothy 's house . Dorothy has fled the island in the night and an envelope is tacked to the front door with Hermie 's name on it . Inside is a note from Dorothy , saying she hopes he understands she must go back home as there is much to do . She assures Hermie she will never forget him , and he will find his way of remembering what happened that night . Her note closes with the hope that Hermie may be spared the senseless tragedies of life . In the final scene , Hermie , suddenly approaching manhood , is seen looking at Dorothy 's old house and the ocean from a distance before he turns to join his friends . To bittersweet music , the adult Raucher sadly recounts that he has never seen Dorothy again or learned what became of her . Cast ( edit ) Jennifer O'Neill as Dorothy Gary Grimes as Hermie Jerry Houser as Oscy Oliver Conant as Benjie Katherine Allentuck as Aggie Christopher Norris as Miriam Lou Frizzell as Druggist Robert Mulligan ( uncredited voice ) as Narrator / Older Herman Raucher Walter Scott ( uncredited ) as Dorothy 's husband Maureen Stapleton ( uncredited voice ) as Hermie 's Mother Production ( edit ) Herman Raucher wrote the film script in the 1950s during his tenure as a television writer , but `` could n't give it away . '' In the 1960s , he met Robert Mulligan , best known for directing To Kill a Mockingbird . Raucher showed Mulligan the script , and Mulligan took it to Warner Bros. , where Mulligan argued the film could be shot for the relatively low price of $1 million , and Warner approved it . They had so little faith in the film becoming a box - office success , though , they shied from paying Raucher outright for the script , instead promising him ten percent of the gross . When casting for the role of Dorothy , Warner Bros. declined to audition any actresses younger than the age of 30 ; Jennifer O'Neill 's agent , who had developed a fondness for the script , convinced the studio to audition his client , who was only 22 at the time . O'Neill auditioned for the role , albeit hesitantly , not wanting to perform any nude scenes . O'Neill got the role and Mulligan agreed to find a way to make the film work without blatant nudity . Nantucket Island was too far modernized in 1970 to be convincingly transformed to resemble an early 1940s resort , so production was taken to Mendocino , California , on the West Coast of the US . Shooting took place over eight weeks , during which O'Neill was sequestered from the three boys cast as `` The Terrible Trio , '' in order to ensure that they did not become close and ruin the sense of awkwardness and distance that their characters felt towards Dorothy . Production ran smoothly , finishing on schedule . After production , Warner Bros. , still wary about the film only being a minor success , asked Raucher to adapt his script into a book . Raucher wrote it in three weeks , and Warner Bros. released it prior to the film to build interest in the story . The book quickly became a national bestseller , so that when trailers premiered in theaters , the film was billed as being `` based on the national bestseller , '' despite the film having been completed first . Ultimately , the book became one of the best selling novels of the first half of the 1970s , requiring 23 reprints between 1971 and 1974 to keep up with customer demand . Factual basis ( edit ) The film ( and subsequent novel ) were memoirs written by Herman Raucher ; they detailed the events in his life over the course of the summer he spent on Nantucket Island in 1942 when he was fourteen years old . Originally , the film was meant to be a tribute to his friend Oscar `` Oscy '' Seltzer , an Army medic killed in the Korean War . Seltzer was shot dead on a battlefield in Korea whilst attending to a wounded man ; this happened on Raucher 's birthday , and consequently , Raucher has not celebrated a birthday since . During the course of writing the screenplay , Raucher came to the realization that despite growing up with Oscy and having bonded with him through their formative years , the two had never really had any meaningful conversations or gotten to know one another on a more personal level . Instead , Raucher decided to focus on the first major adult experience of his life , that of falling in love for the first time . The woman ( named Dorothy , like her screen counterpart ) was a fellow vacationer on the island whom the 14 - year old Raucher had befriended one day when he helped her carry groceries home ; he became a friend of her and her husband and helped her with chores after her husband was called to fight in World War II . On the night memorialized in the film , Raucher randomly came to visit her , unaware his arrival was just minutes after she received notification of her husband 's death . She was confused and upset , had been drinking heavily , and repeatedly called Raucher by her husband 's name . Although both ultimately disrobed , contrary to popular opinion , sexual intercourse did not occur . Raucher admitted this in a 2002 interview saying it was mostly holding , but in the movie `` We let you think what you want . '' The next morning , Raucher discovered that she had left the island , leaving behind a note for him ( which is read at the end of the film and reproduced in the book ) . He never saw her again ; his last `` encounter '' with her , recounted on an episode of The Mike Douglas Show , came after the film 's release in 1971 , when she was one of over a dozen women who wrote letters to Raucher claiming to be `` his '' Dorothy . Raucher recognized the `` real '' Dorothy 's handwriting , and she confirmed her identity by making references to certain events only she could have known about . She told Raucher that she had lived for years with the guilt that she had potentially traumatized him and ruined his life . She told Raucher that she was glad he turned out all right , and that they had best not re-visit the past . In a 2002 Scripps Treasure Coast Publishing interview , Raucher lamented never hearing from her again and expressed his hope that she was still alive . Raucher 's novelization of the screenplay , with the dedication , `` To those I love , past and present , '' serves more as the tribute to Seltzer that he had intended the film to be , with the focus of the book being more on the two boys ' relationship than Raucher 's relationship with Dorothy . Consequently , the book also mentions Seltzer 's death , which is absent from the film adaptation . Reception and awards ( edit ) This section needs expansion . You can help by adding to it . ( June 2017 ) The film became a blockbuster upon its release , grossing over $32 million , making it the sixth highest - grossing film of 1971 and one of the most successful films in history , with an expense - to - profit ratio of 1 : 32 ; beyond that , it is estimated video rentals and purchases in the United States since the 1980s have produced an additional $20.5 million . On this point , Raucher said in May 2002 that his ten percent of the gross , in addition to royalties from book sales , `` has paid bills ever since . '' As well as being a commercial success , Summer of ' 42 also received rave critical reviews . It went on to be nominated for over a dozen awards , including Golden Globe Awards for `` Best Motion Picture -- Drama '' and `` Best Director '' , and five Academy Award nominations for Best Original Music Score , Best Cinematography , Best Editing , Best Writing - Story and Best Screenplay . Ultimately , the film won two awards : the 1972 44th Academy Awards Oscar for Original Dramatic Score , and the 1971 BAFTA Anthony Asquith Award for Film Music , both to Michel Legrand . It counted among its fans Stanley Kubrick , who had the film play on a television in a scene in The Shining . The film is recognized by American Film Institute in these lists : 2002 : AFI 's 100 Years ... 100 Passions -- Nominated 2005 : AFI 's 100 Years of Film Scores -- Nominated Sequel ( edit ) In 1973 , the film was followed by Class of ' 44 , a slice - of - life film made up of vignettes about Herman Raucher and Oscar Seltzer 's experiences in college . Class of ' 44 involves the boys facing army service in the last year of World War II . The only crew member from Summer of ' 42 to return to the project was Raucher himself , who wrote the script ; a new director and composer were brought in to replace Mulligan and Legrand . Of the principal four cast members of Summer of ' 42 , only Jerry Houser and Gary Grimes returned for prominent roles , with Oliver Conant making two brief appearances totaling less than two minutes of screen time . Jennifer O'Neill did not appear in the film at all , nor was the character of Dorothy mentioned . The film is noted for featuring a young , slim John Candy briefly appearing in his first film role . The film met with poor critical reviews ; the only three reviews available at Rotten Tomatoes are resoundingly negative , with Channel 4 calling it `` a big disappointment , '' and The New York Times stating `` The only things worth attention in ' Class of ' 44 are the period details , '' and `` ' Class of ' 44 ' seems less like a movie than 95 minutes of animated wallpaper . '' Soundtrack ( edit ) Summer of ' 42 : Original Motion Picture Score Soundtrack album by Michel Legrand Released 1971 Label Warner Bros. Records The film 's soundtrack consists almost entirely of compositions by Michel Legrand , many of which are variants upon `` The Summer Knows '' , the film 's theme . Lyrics are by Marilyn and Alan Bergman . Because the complete score runs just under 17 minutes , only the first and eighth tracks on the album are from Summer of ' 42 ; the rest of the music is taken from Legrand 's score for 1969 's The Picasso Summer . In addition to Legrand 's scoring , the film also features the song `` Hold Tight '' by The Andrews Sisters and the theme from Now , Voyager . On the Billboard 200 , it debuted on 9 / 11 / 1971 and peaked at # 52 on 11 / 20 / 1971 . Summer of ' 42 : Original Motion Picture Score No .

Warner Bros. Publications released a sheet music folio , Summer of ' 42 & Other Hits of the Forties , which contains the movie theme and 34 other unrelated songs . Cultural impact ( edit ) Music ( edit ) Legrand 's theme song for the film , `` The Summer Knows '' , has since become a pop standard , being recorded by such artists as Peter Nero ( who had a charting hit with his 1971 version ) , Biddu , Tony Bennett , Frank Sinatra , Sarah Vaughan , Andy Williams , Jonny Fair , Scott Walker , Jackie Evancho , Oscar Peterson , Bill Evans , Toots Thielemans , and Barbra Streisand . The 1973 song `` Summer ( The First Time ) '' by Bobby Goldsboro has almost exactly the same subject and apparent setting , although there is no direct credited link . Bryan Adams has , however , credited the film as being a partial inspiration for his 1985 hit `` Summer of ' 69 '' . Garth Brooks ' 1993 hit `` That Summer '' features a similar story of a coming - of - age male in a romance with an older female . Film and television ( edit ) In Stanley Kubrick 's 1980 film version of Stephen King 's The Shining , Wendy ( Shelley Duvall ) is shown watching Summer of ' 42 on television ( a brief clip of the scene featuring Hermie helping Dorothy bring her groceries in the house is playing on the television in the background during the scene ) . An episode of the 1970s sitcom Happy Days was loosely based upon Summer of ' 42 , with Richie Cunningham befriending a Korean War widow . The film 's title formed the basis of a Season 7 episode of The Simpsons , `` Summer of 4 Ft. 2 '' . On the Happy Days 30th Anniversary Show it was actually a Drama called New Family In Town based on Summer Of ' 42 which was one of the most popular Movies at that time . Remakes ( edit ) In the years since the film 's release , Warner Bros. has attempted to buy back Raucher 's ten percent of the film as well as his rights to the story so it could be remade ; Raucher has consistently declined . The 1988 film Stealing Home has numerous similarities to both Summer of ' 42 and Class of ' 44 , with several incidents ( most notably a subplot dealing with the premature death of the protagonist 's father and the protagonist 's response to it ) appearing to have been directly lifted from Raucher 's own life ; Jennifer O'Neill stated in 2002 she believes `` Home '' was an attempted remake of `` Summer '' . Off - Broadway musical ( edit ) In 2001 , Raucher consented to the film being made into an off Broadway musical play . He was on hand opening night , giving the cast a pep - talk which he concluded , `` We 've now done it every possible way -- except go out and piss it in the snow ! '' The play met with positive critical and fan response , and was endorsed by Raucher himself , but the play was forced to close down in the aftermath of the September 11 attacks . Nevertheless , the play was enough to spark interest in the film and book with a new generation , prompting Warner to re-issue the book ( which had since gone out of print , along with all of Raucher 's other works ) for sale with Barnes & Noble 's online bookstore , and to restore the film and release it on DVD . The musical has since been performed across the country , at venues such as Kalliope Stage in Cleveland Heights , Ohio in 2004 ( directed by Paul Gurgol ) and Mill Mountain Theatre in Roanoke , Virginia , ( directed by Jere Hodgin and choreographed by Bernard Monroe ) , and was subsequently recorded as a concert by the York Theatre Company in 2006 . Alternate sequel ( edit ) In 2002 , O'Neill claimed to have obtained the rights to make a sequel to Summer of ' 42 , based on a short story she wrote , which took place in an alternate reality where Herman Raucher had a son and divorced his wife , went back to Nantucket in 1962 with a still - living Oscar Seltzer , and encountered Dorothy again and married her . As of 2017 , this project -- which O'Neill had hoped to produce with Lifetime television -- has not been realized , and it is unknown whether O'Neill is still attempting to get it produced , or if Raucher consented to its production .

Sacrifice ( song ) - wikipedia Sacrifice ( song ) Jump to : navigation , search For other songs with the same title , see Sacrifice ( disambiguation ) § Songs . `` Sacrifice '' Single by Elton John from the album Sleeping with the Past A-side `` Healing Hands '' ( second release ) B - side `` Love Is a Cannibal '' ( first release ) Released October 1989 ( first release ) May 1990 ( second release ) Format CD , vinyl record ( 7 '' and 12 `` ) , audio cassette Length 5 : 11 Label Rocket , MCA Songwriter ( s ) Elton John , Bernie Taupin Producer ( s ) Chris Thomas Elton John singles chronology `` Healing Hands '' ( 1989 ) `` Sacrifice '' ( 1989 ) `` Club at the End of the Street '' ( 1990 ) `` Healing Hands '' ( 1989 ) `` Sacrifice '' ( 1989 ) `` Club at the End of the Street '' ( 1990 ) `` Sacrifice '' is a ballad performed by musician Elton John . The lyrics are by Bernie Taupin and the music by John . The song appears on the 1989 album Sleeping with the Past . It was first released in October 1989 , then in 1990 , and was the second single from the album . It achieved success , particularly in France and the UK , where it became his first solo chart - topper , spending five weeks at the top . A country music cover of the song was performed by Don Henley and Vince Gill as part of the 2018 tribute album Restoration : Reimagining the Songs of Elton John and Bernie Taupin .

The song is beloved by both John and Bernie Taupin and deemed a bookend of sorts to their first hit `` Your Song '' . Taupin has said he is surprised he wrote it , and said in an interview , `` I think ' Sacrifice ' is one of the best songs we 've written . '' The song is not a typical love song , but rather a song about a breakup of a marriage where the loss of the relationship is `` no sacrifice . '' Although the single was successful , Elton John did not tour Europe in both 1989 -- 1990 to support the Sleeping with the Past album ( with the exception of one appearance in Knebworth Park on 30 June 1990 ) touring only in the U.S. and Australia . The 1989 European tour was , instead , in support of the Reg Strikes Back album , with no material representing Sleeping with the Past . In all shows that were done to support Sleeping with the Past in 1989 -- 1990 , Elton played this song solo on his Roland RD - 1000 Digital Piano . Music video ( edit ) The video , which follows the song 's lyrics , portrays a man and woman having problems in their relationship after being married and raising a daughter . After they go their separate ways , the man raises his daughter alone . The video was directed by Alek Keshishian and it had Yasmeen Ghauri and Chris Isaak in it . The version used in the promo video is slightly sped up compared to the album version . The result is a higher pitched vocal and shorter length time . The video was filmed in Los Angeles in 1989 , and was the second video made after Elton rejected a version from Ken Russell . Chart performance ( edit ) Sacrifice was initially released as a single in 1989 , but stalled at # 55 in the UK charts and at # 18 in the US charts in March 1990 . In mid-1990 English DJ Steve Wright began playing the song on BBC Radio 1 , soon followed by many more radio DJs . The song was then re-released as a double A-side single , along with `` Healing Hands '' , and reached # 1 in the UK in June 1990 . Thus , it became John 's first solo number - one single in the UK Singles Chart , remaining on the top spot for five weeks . With this re-release , Elton John also got his first number one in France and stayed on the chart for 26 weeks .

Pencil - wikipedia Pencil Jump to : navigation , search This article is about the writing implement . For other uses , see Pencil ( disambiguation ) . HB graphite pencils Coloured pencils ( Caran d'Ache ) A pencil is a writing implement or art medium constructed of a narrow , solid pigment core inside a protective casing which prevents the core from being broken and / or from leaving marks on the user 's hand during use . Pencils create marks by physical abrasion , leaving behind a trail of solid core material that adheres to a sheet of paper or other surface . They are distinct from pens , which instead disperse a trail of liquid or gel ink that stains the light colour of the paper by absorption . Most pencil cores are made of graphite mixed with a clay binder which leaves grey or black marks that can be easily erased . Graphite pencils are used for both writing and drawing and result in durable markings : though writing is easily removable with an eraser , it is otherwise resistant to moisture , most chemicals , ultraviolet radiation , and natural aging . Other types of pencil core are less widely used , such as charcoal pencils , which are mainly used by artists for drawing and sketching . Coloured pencils are sometimes used by teachers or editors to correct submitted texts , but are typically regarded as art supplies , especially those with waxy core binders that tend to smear on paper instead of erasing . Grease pencils have a softer , crayon - like waxy core that can leave marks on smooth surfaces such as glass or porcelain . The most common type of pencil casing is of thin wood , usually hexagonal in section but sometimes cylindrical , permanently bonded to the core . Similar permanent casings may be constructed of other materials such as plastic or paper . To use the pencil , the casing must be carved or peeled off to expose the working end of the core as a sharp point . Mechanical pencils have more elaborate casings which are not permanently bonded to the core . Instead , the casing supports a separate , mobile piece of pigment core that can be extended or retracted through the casing tip as needed ; these pencil casings can be re-loaded with a new core ( usually graphite ) when necessary .

Though the archetypal pencil was an artist 's brush , the stylus , a thin metal stick used for scratching in papyrus or wax tablets , was used extensively by the Romans and for palm - leaf manuscripts . Discovery of graphite deposit As a technique for drawing , the closest predecesor to the pencil was Silverpoint until in 1565 ( some sources say as early as 1500 ) , a large deposit of graphite was discovered on the approach to Grey Knotts from the hamlet of Seathwaite in Borrowdale parish , Cumbria , England . This particular deposit of graphite was extremely pure and solid , and it could easily be sawn into sticks . It remains the only large - scale deposit of graphite ever found in this solid form . Chemistry was in its infancy and the substance was thought to be a form of lead . Consequently , it was called plumbago ( Latin for `` lead ore '' ) . Because the pencil core is still referred to as `` lead '' , or a `` lead '' , many people have the misconception that the graphite in the pencil is lead , and the black core of pencils is still referred to as lead , even though it never contained the element lead . The words for pencil in German ( bleistift ) , Irish ( peann luaidhe ) , Arabic ( قلم رصاص qalam raṣāṣ ) , and some other languages literally mean lead pen . The value of graphite would soon be realised to be enormous , mainly because it could be used to line the moulds for cannonballs ; the mines were taken over by the Crown and were guarded . When sufficient stores of graphite had been accumulated , the mines were flooded to prevent theft until more was required . The usefulness of graphite for pencils was discovered as well , but graphite for pencils had to be smuggled . The news of the usefulness of these early pencils spread far and wide , attracting the attention of artists all over the known world . Because graphite is soft , it requires some form of encasement . Graphite sticks were initially wrapped in string or sheepskin for stability . England would enjoy a monopoly on the production of pencils until a method of reconstituting the graphite powder was found in 1662 in Italy . However , the distinctively square English pencils continued to be made with sticks cut from natural graphite into the 1860s . The town of Keswick , near the original findings of block graphite , still manufactures pencils , the factory also being the location of the Cumberland Pencil Museum . The meaning of `` graphite writing implement '' apparently evolved late in the 16th century . Wood holders added Palomino Blackwing 602 pencils Around 1560 , an Italian couple named Simonio and Lyndiana Bernacotti made what are likely the first blueprints for the modern , wood - encased carpentry pencil . Their version was a flat , oval , more compact type of pencil . Their concept involved the hollowing out of a stick of juniper wood . Shortly thereafter , a superior technique was discovered : two wooden halves were carved , a graphite stick inserted , and the halves then glued together -- essentially the same method in use to this day . New pencils from graphite powder , and graphite and clay The first attempt to manufacture graphite sticks from powdered graphite was in Nuremberg , Germany , in 1662 . It used a mixture of graphite , sulphur , and antimony . English and German pencils were not available to the French during the Napoleonic Wars ; France , under naval blockade imposed by Great Britain , was unable to import the pure graphite sticks from the British Grey Knotts mines -- the only known source in the world . France was also unable to import the inferior German graphite pencil substitute . It took the efforts of an officer in Napoleon 's army to change this . In 1795 , Nicolas - Jacques Conté discovered a method of mixing powdered graphite with clay and forming the mixture into rods that were then fired in a kiln . By varying the ratio of graphite to clay , the hardness of the graphite rod could also be varied . This method of manufacture , which had been earlier discovered by the Austrian Joseph Hardtmuth , the founder of the Koh - I - Noor in 1790 , remains in use . In 1802 , the production of graphite leads from graphite and clay was patented by the Koh - I - Noor company in Vienna . In England , pencils continued to be made from whole sawn graphite . Henry Bessemer 's first successful invention ( 1838 ) was a method of compressing graphite powder into solid graphite thus allowing the waste from sawing to be reused .

The top sequence shows the old method that required pieces of graphite to be cut to size ; the lower sequence is the new , current method using rods of graphite and clay . American colonists imported pencils from Europe until after the American Revolution . Benjamin Franklin advertised pencils for sale in his Pennsylvania Gazette in 1729 , and George Washington used a three - inch pencil when he surveyed the Ohio Territory in 1762 . It is said that William Munroe , a cabinetmaker in Concord , Massachusetts , made the first American wood pencils in 1812 . This was not the only pencil - making occurring in Concord . According to Henry Petroski , transcendentalist philosopher Henry David Thoreau discovered how to make a good pencil out of inferior graphite using clay as the binder ; this invention was prompted by his father 's pencil factory in Concord , which employed graphite found in New Hampshire in 1821 by Charles Dunbar . Munroe 's method of making pencils was painstakingly slow , and in the neighbouring town of Acton , a pencil mill owner named Ebenezer Wood set out to automate the process at his own pencil mill located at Nashoba Brook . He used the first circular saw in pencil production . He constructed the first of the hexagon - and octagon - shaped wooden casings . Ebenezer did not patent his invention and shared his techniques with anyone . One of those was Eberhard Faber of New York , who became the leader in pencil production . Joseph Dixon , an inventor and entrepreneur involved with the Tantiusques granite mine in Sturbridge , Massachusetts , developed a means to mass - produce pencils . By 1870 , The Joseph Dixon Crucible Company was the world 's largest dealer and consumer of graphite and later became the contemporary Dixon Ticonderoga pencil and art supplies company . By the end of the 19th century , over 240,000 pencils were used each day in the US . The favoured timber for pencils was Red Cedar as it was aromatic and did not splinter when sharpened . In the early 20th century supplies of Red Cedar were dwindling so that pencil manufacturers were forced to recycle the wood from cedar fences and barns to maintain supply . One effect of this was that `` during World War II rotary pencil sharpeners were outlawed in Britain because they wasted so much scarce lead and wood , and pencils had to be sharpened in the more conservative manner -- with knives . '' It was soon discovered that Incense cedar , when dyed and perfumed to resemble Red Cedar , was a suitable alternative and most pencils today are made from this timber which is grown in managed forests . Over 14 billion pencils are manufactured worldwide annually . Less popular alternatives to cedar include basswood and alder . In Southeast Asia the wood Jelutong may be used to create pencils ( though the use of this rainforest species is controversial ) . Environmentalists prefer the use of Pulai -- another wood native to the region and used in pencil manufacturing . Eraser attached Attached eraser on the left ; Pencil lead on the right On 30 March 1858 , Hymen Lipman received the first patent for attaching an eraser to the end of a pencil . In 1862 , Lipman sold his patent to Joseph Reckendorfer for $100,000 , who went on to sue pencil manufacturer Faber - Castell for infringement . In 1875 , the Supreme Court of the US ruled against Reckendorfer declaring the patent invalid . Pencil extenders Main article : Pencil extender Historian Henry Petroski notes that while ever more efficient means of mass production of pencils has driven the replacement cost of a pencil down , before this people would continue to use even the stub of a pencil . For those who `` did not feel comfortable using a stub , pencil extenders were sold . These devices function something like a porte - crayon ... the pencil stub can be inserted into the end of a shaft ... Extenders were especially common among engineers and draftsmen , whose favorite pencils were priced dearly . The use of an extender also has the advantage that the pencil does not appreciably change its heft as it wears down . '' Artists currently use extenders to maximize the use of their colored pencils . Types By marking material Coloured pencils Promotional pencils Graphite pencils These are the most common types of pencil , and are encased in wood . They are made of a mixture of clay and graphite and their darkness varies from light grey to black . Their composition allows for the smoothest strokes . Solid graphite pencils These are solid sticks of graphite and clay composite ( as found in a ' graphite pencil ' ) , about the diameter of a common pencil , which have no casing other than a wrapper or label . They are often called `` woodless '' pencils . They are used primarily for art purposes as the lack of casing allows for covering larger spaces more easily , creating different effects , and providing greater economy as the entirety of the pencil is used . They are available in the same darkness range as wood - encased graphite pencils . Liquid graphite pencils These are pencils that write like pens . The technology was first invented in 1955 by Scripto and Parker Pens . Scripto 's liquid graphite formula came out about three months before Parker 's liquid lead formula . To avoid a lengthy patent fight the two companies agreed to share their formulas . Charcoal pencils Are made of charcoal and provide fuller blacks than graphite pencils , but tend to smudge easily and are more abrasive than graphite . Sepia - toned and white pencils are also available for duotone techniques . Carbon pencils They generally are made of a mixture of clay and lamp black , but are sometimes blended with charcoal or graphite depending on the darkness and manufacturer . They produce a fuller black than graphite pencils , but are smoother than charcoal . Coloured pencils , or pencil crayons These have wax - like cores with pigment and other fillers . Multiple colours are often blended together . Grease pencils They write on virtually any surface ( including glass , plastic , metal and photographs ) . The most commonly found grease pencils are encased in paper ( Berol and Sanford Peel - off ) , but they can also be encased in wood ( Staedtler Omnichrom ) . Watercolour pencils These are designed for use with watercolour techniques . The pencils can be used by themselves for sharp , bold lines . Strokes made by the pencil can also be saturated with water and spread with brushes . By use Two `` woodless '' graphite pencils , two charcoal pencils , and two grease pencils Carpenter 's pencils These are pencils that have two main properties : their shape prevents them from rolling , and their graphite is strong . The oldest surviving pencil is a German carpenter 's pencil dating from the 17th Century and now in the Faber - Castell collection . Obliteration by indelible pencil to censor mail in 1943 Copying pencils ( or indelible pencils ) These are graphite pencils with an added dye that creates an indelible mark . They were invented in the late 19th century for press copying and as a practical substitute for fountain pens . Their markings are often visually indistinguishable from those of standard graphite pencils , but when moistened their markings dissolve into a coloured ink , which is then pressed into another piece of paper . They were widely used until the mid 20th century when ball pens slowly replaced them . In Italy their use is still mandated by law for voting paper ballots in elections and referenda . Eyeliner pencil Eyliner pencil is used for make - up . Unlike traditional copying pencil , eyeliner pencil usually contains non-toxic dyes . Erasable colour pencils Unlike wax - based coloured pencils , these can be easily erased . Their main use is in sketching , where the objective is to create an outline using the same colour that other media ( such as wax pencils , or watercolour paints ) would fill or when the objective is to scan the colour sketch . Some animators prefer erasable colour pencils as opposed to graphite pencils because they do n't smudge as easily , and the different colours allow for better separation of objects in the sketch . Copy - editors find them useful too , as their markings stand out more than graphite but can be erased . Non-reproducing or non-photo blue pencils make marks that are not reproduced by photocopiers ( Sanford 's Copy - not or Staedtler 's Mars Non-photo ) or by whiteprint copiers ( Staedtler 's Mars Non-Print ) . Stenographer 's pencil Also known as a steno pencil . These pencils are expected to be very reliable , and their lead is break - proof . Nevertheless , steno pencils are sometimes sharpened at both ends to enhance reliability . They are round to avoid pressure pain during long texts . Golf pencil Golf pencils are usually short ( a common length is 9 cm ( 3.5 in ) ) and very cheap . They are also known as library pencils , as many libraries offer them as disposable , unspillable writing instruments . By shape Triangular ( more accurately a Reuleaux triangle ) Hexagonal Round Bendable ( flexible plastic ) By size Typical A standard , hexagonal , `` # 2 pencil '' is cut to a hexagonal height of ⁄ - inch ( 6 mm ) , but the outer diameter is slightly larger ( about ⁄ - inch ( 7 mm ) ) A standard , # 2 , hexagonal pencil is 19 cm ( 7.5 in ) long . Biggest On 3 September 2007 , Ashrita Furman unveiled his giant US $20,000 pencil -- 76 feet ( 23 m ) long , 18,000 pounds ( 8,200 kg ) ( with over 4,500 pounds ( 2,000 kg ) for the graphite centre ) -- after three weeks of creation in August 2007 as a birthday gift for teacher Sri Chinmoy . It is longer than the 65 - foot ( 20 m ) pencil outside the Malaysia HQ of stationers Faber - Castell . By manufacture Mechanical pencils Lead for mechanical pencils Flexible pencils There are also pencils which use mechanical methods to push lead through a hole at the end . These can be divided into two groups : propelling pencils use an internal mechanism to push the lead out from an internal compartment , while clutch pencils merely hold the lead in place ( the lead is extended by releasing it and allowing some external force , usually gravity , to pull it out of the body ) . The erasers ( sometimes replaced by a sharpener on pencils with larger lead sizes ) are also removable ( and thus replaceable ) , and usually cover a place to store replacement leads . Mechanical pencils are popular for their longevity and the fact that they may never need sharpening . Lead types are based on grade and size ; with standard sizes being 2.00 mm ( 0.079 in ) , 1.40 mm ( 0.055 in ) , 1.00 mm ( 0.039 in ) , 0.70 mm ( 0.028 in ) , 0.50 mm ( 0.020 in ) , 0.35 mm ( 0.014 in ) , 0.25 mm ( 0.0098 in ) , 0.18 mm ( 0.0071 in ) , and 0.13 mm ( 0.0051 in ) ( ISO 9175 - 1 ) -- the 0.90 mm ( 0.035 in ) size is available , but is not considered a standard ISO size . Pop a Point Pencils Pioneered by Taiwanese stationery manufacturer Bensia Pioneer Industrial Corporation in the early 1970s , the product is also known as Bensia Pencils , stackable pencils or non-sharpening pencils . It is a type of pencil where many short pencil tips are housed in a cartridge - style plastic holder . A blunt tip is removed by pulling it from the writing end of the body and re-inserting it into the open - ended bottom of the body , thereby pushing a new tip to the top . Plastic pencils Invented by Harold Grossman for Empire Pencil Company in 1967 and subsequently improved upon by Arthur D. Little for Empire from 1969 through the early 1970s ; the plastic pencil was commercialised by Empire as the `` EPCON '' Pencil . These pencils were co-extruded , extruding a plasticised graphite mix within a wood - composite core . Health Residual graphite from a pencil stick is not poisonous , and graphite is harmless if consumed . Although lead has not been used for writing since antiquity , lead poisoning from pencils was not uncommon . Until the middle of the 20th century the paint used for the outer coating could contain high concentrations of lead , and this could be ingested when the pencil was sucked or chewed . Manufacture The lead of the pencil is a mix of finely ground graphite and clay powders . Before the two substances are mixed , they are separately cleaned of foreign matter and dried in a manner that creates large square cakes . Once the cakes have fully dried , the graphite and the clay squares are mixed together using water . The amount of clay content added to the graphite depends on the intended pencil hardness ( lower proportions of clay makes the core softer ) , and the amount of time spent on grinding the mixture determines the quality of the lead . The mixture is then shaped into long spaghetti - like strings , straightened , dried , cut , and then tempered in a kiln . The resulting strings are dipped in oil or molten wax , which seeps into the tiny holes of the material and allows for the smooth writing ability of the pencil . A juniper or incense - cedar plank with several long parallel grooves is cut to fashion a `` slat , '' and the graphite / clay strings are inserted into the grooves . Another grooved plank is glued on top , and the whole assembly is then cut into individual pencils , which are then varnished or painted . Many pencils feature an eraser on the top and so the process is usually still considered incomplete at this point . Each pencil has a shoulder cut on one end of the pencil to allow for a metal ferrule to be secured onto the wood . A rubber plug is then inserted into the ferrule for a functioning eraser on the end of the pencil . Grading and classification Two graphite pencils . Both are labelled `` HB '' , but the numeric label differs between `` 2 '' and `` 21 / 2 '' A grading chart ranging from 9B to 9H Graphite pencils are made of a mixture of clay and graphite and their darkness varies from light grey to black : the more clay the harder the pencil . There is a wide range of grades available , mainly for artists who are interested in creating a full range of tones from light grey to black . Engineers prefer harder pencils which allow for a greater control in the shape of the lead . Manufacturers distinguish their pencils by grading them , but there is no common standard . Two pencils of the same grade but different manufacturers will not necessarily make a mark of identical tone nor have the same hardness . Most manufacturers , and almost all in Europe , designate their pencils with the letters H ( commonly interpreted as `` hardness '' ) to B ( commonly `` blackness '' ) , as well as F ( usually taken to mean `` fineness '' , although F pencils are no more fine or more easily sharpened than any other grade . Also known as `` firm '' in Japan ) . The standard writing pencil is graded HB . This designation might have been first used in the early 20th century by Brookman , an English pencil maker . It used B for black and H for hard ; a pencil 's grade was described by a sequence or successive Hs or Bs such as BB and BBB for successively softer leads , and HH and HHH for successively harder ones . The Koh - i - Noor Hardtmuth pencil manufacturers claim to have first used the HB designations , with H standing for Hardtmuth , B for the company 's location of Budějovice , and F for Franz Hardtmuth , who was responsible for technological improvements in pencil manufacture . As of 2009 , a set of pencils ranging from a very hard , light - marking pencil to a very soft , black - marking pencil usually ranges from hardest to softest as follows : 9H 8H 7H 6H 5H 4H 3H 2H HB 2B 3B 4B 5B 6B 7B 8B 9B Hardest → Medium → Softest Koh - i - noor offers twenty grades from 10H to 8B for its 1500 series ; Mitsubishi Pencil offers twenty - two grades from 10H to 10B for its Hi - uni range ; Derwent produces twenty grades from 9H to 9B for its graphic pencils and Staedtler produces sixteen from 6H to 8B for its Mars Lumograph pencils . Numbers as designation were first used by Conté and later by John Thoreau , father of Henry David Thoreau , in the 19th century . Conté / Thoreau Tone US World # 1 # 2 HB # 21⁄2 # 3 # 4 2H Also seen as 24 / 8 , 2.5 , 25 / 10 Although Conté / Thoreau 's equivalence table is widely accepted , not all manufacturers follow it ; for example , Faber - Castell uses a different equivalence table in its Grip 2001 pencils : 1 = 2B , 2 = B , 21⁄2 = HB , 3 = H , 4 = 2H . Pencil hardness test Graded pencils can be used for a rapid test that provides relative ratings for a series of coated panels but ca n't be used to compare the pencil hardness of different coatings . This test defines a `` pencil hardness '' of a coating as the grade of the hardest pencil that does not permanently mark the coating when pressed firmly against it at a 45 degree angle . For standardized measurements , there are Mohs hardness testing pencils on the market . External colour and shape of pencils A typical yellow no . 2 pencil The majority of pencils made in the US are painted yellow . According to Henry Petroski , this tradition began in 1890 when the L. & C. Hardtmuth Company of Austria - Hungary introduced their Koh - I - Noor brand , named after the famous diamond . It was intended to be the world 's best and most expensive pencil , and at a time when most pencils were either painted in dark colours or not at all , the Koh - I - Noor was yellow . As well as simply being distinctive , the colour may have been inspired by the Austro - Hungarian flag ; it was also suggestive of the Orient at a time when the best - quality graphite came from Siberia . Other companies then copied the yellow colour so that their pencils would be associated with this high - quality brand , and chose brand names with explicit Oriental references , such as Mikado ( renamed Mirado ) and Mongol . Not all countries use yellow pencils . German and Brazilian pencils , for example , are often green , blue or black , based on the trademark colours of Faber - Castell , a major German stationery company which has plants in those countries . In southern European countries , pencils tend to be dark red or black with yellow lines , while in Australia , they are red with black bands at one end . In India , the most common pencil colour scheme was dark red with black lines , and pencils with a large number of colour schemes are produced by various companies . Pencils are commonly round , hexagonal , or sometimes triangular in section . Carpenters ' pencils are typically oval or rectangular , so they can not easily roll away during work . Notable pencil Users Thomas Edison had his pencils specially made by Eagle Pencil . Each pencil was three inches long , was thicker than standard pencils and had softer graphite than was normally available . Vladimir Nabokov rewrote everything he had ever published , usually several times , in pencil . John Steinbeck was an obsessive pencil user and is said to have used as many as 60 a day . His novel East of Eden took more than 300 pencils to write . Vincent van Gogh used only Faber pencils as they were `` superior to Carpenters pencils , a capital black and most agreeable '' . Johnny Carson regularly played with pencils at his Tonight Show desk . These pencils were specially made with erasers at both ends to avoid on - set accidents . Roald Dahl used only pencils with yellow casing to write his books . He had 6 sharpened pencils ready at the beginning of each day and only when all 6 pencils became unusable did he resharpen them .

DNA - wikipedia DNA Jump to : navigation , search For a non-technical introduction to the topic , see Introduction to genetics . For other uses , see DNA ( disambiguation ) . The structure of the DNA double helix . The atoms in the structure are colour - coded by element and the detailed structures of two base pairs are shown in the bottom right . The structure of part of a DNA double helix Deoxyribonucleic acid ( / diˈɒksiˌraɪboʊnjʊˈkliːɪk , - ˈkleɪ. ɪk / ( listen ) ; DNA ) is a thread - like chain of nucleotides carrying the genetic instructions used in the growth , development , functioning and reproduction of all known living organisms and many viruses . DNA and ribonucleic acid ( RNA ) are nucleic acids ; alongside proteins , lipids and complex carbohydrates ( polysaccharides ) , they are one of the four major types of macromolecules that are essential for all known forms of life . Most DNA molecules consist of two biopolymer strands coiled around each other to form a double helix . The two DNA strands are called polynucleotides since they are composed of simpler monomer units called nucleotides . Each nucleotide is composed of one of four nitrogen - containing nucleobases ( cytosine ( C ) , guanine ( G ) , adenine ( A ) or thymine ( T ) ) , a sugar called deoxyribose , and a phosphate group . The nucleotides are joined to one another in a chain by covalent bonds between the sugar of one nucleotide and the phosphate of the next , resulting in an alternating sugar - phosphate backbone . The nitrogenous bases of the two separate polynucleotide strands are bound together , according to base pairing rules ( A with T and C with G ) , with hydrogen bonds to make double - stranded DNA . The complementary nitrogenous bases are divided into two groups , pyrimidines and purines . In a DNA molecule , the pyrimidines are thymine and cytosine , the purines are adenine and guanine . DNA stores biological information . The DNA backbone is resistant to cleavage , and both strands of the double - stranded structure store the same biological information . This information is replicated as and when the two strands separate . A large part of DNA ( more than 98 % for humans ) is non-coding , meaning that these sections do not serve as patterns for protein sequences . The two strands of DNA run in opposite directions to each other and are thus antiparallel . Attached to each sugar is one of four types of nucleobases ( informally , bases ) . It is the sequence of these four nucleobases along the backbone that encodes biological information . RNA strands are created using DNA strands as a template in a process called transcription . Under the genetic code , these RNA strands are translated to specify the sequence of amino acids within proteins in a process called translation . Within eukaryotic cells , DNA is organized into long structures called chromosomes . During cell division these chromosomes are duplicated in the process of DNA replication , providing each cell its own complete set of chromosomes . Eukaryotic organisms ( animals , plants , fungi and protists ) store most of their DNA inside the cell nucleus and some of their DNA in organelles , such as mitochondria or chloroplasts . In contrast prokaryotes ( bacteria and archaea ) store their DNA only in the cytoplasm . Within the eukaryotic chromosomes , chromatin proteins such as histones compact and organize DNA . These compact structures guide the interactions between DNA and other proteins , helping control which parts of the DNA are transcribed . DNA was first isolated by Friedrich Miescher in 1869 . Its molecular structure was first identified by James Watson and Francis Crick at the Cavendish Laboratory within the University of Cambridge in 1953 , whose model - building efforts were guided by X-ray diffraction data acquired by Raymond Gosling , who was a post-graduate student of Rosalind Franklin . DNA is used by researchers as a molecular tool to explore physical laws and theories , such as the ergodic theorem and the theory of elasticity . The unique material properties of DNA have made it an attractive molecule for material scientists and engineers interested in micro - and nano - fabrication . Among notable advances in this field are DNA origami and DNA - based hybrid materials .

The structure of DNA is dynamic along its length , being capable of coiling into tight loops , and other shapes . In all species it is composed of two helical chains , bound to each other by hydrogen bonds . Both chains are coiled round the same axis , and have the same pitch of 34 ångströms ( 3.4 nanometres ) . The pair of chains has a radius of 10 ångströms ( 1.0 nanometre ) . According to another study , when measured in a different solution , the DNA chain measured 22 to 26 ångströms wide ( 2.2 to 2.6 nanometres ) , and one nucleotide unit measured 3.3 Å ( 0.33 nm ) long . Although each individual nucleotide repeating unit is very small , DNA polymers can be very large molecules containing millions to hundreds of millions of nucleotides . For instance , the DNA in the largest human chromosome , chromosome number 1 , consists of approximately 220 million base pairs and would be 85 mm long if straightened . In living organisms , DNA does not usually exist as a single molecule , but instead as a pair of molecules that are held tightly together . These two long strands entwine like vines , in the shape of a double helix . The nucleotide contains both a segment of the backbone of the molecule ( which holds the chain together ) and a nucleobase ( which interacts with the other DNA strand in the helix ) . A nucleobase linked to a sugar is called a nucleoside and a base linked to a sugar and one or more phosphate groups is called a nucleotide . A polymer comprising multiple linked nucleotides ( as in DNA ) is called a polynucleotide . The backbone of the DNA strand is made from alternating phosphate and sugar residues . The sugar in DNA is 2 - deoxyribose , which is a pentose ( five - carbon ) sugar . The sugars are joined together by phosphate groups that form phosphodiester bonds between the third and fifth carbon atoms of adjacent sugar rings . These asymmetric bonds mean a strand of DNA has a direction . In a double helix , the direction of the nucleotides in one strand is opposite to their direction in the other strand : the strands are antiparallel . The asymmetric ends of DNA strands are said to have a directionality of five prime ( 5 ′ ) and three prime ( 3 ′ ) , with the 5 ′ end having a terminal phosphate group and the 3 ′ end a terminal hydroxyl group . One major difference between DNA and RNA is the sugar , with the 2 - deoxyribose in DNA being replaced by the alternative pentose sugar ribose in RNA . A section of DNA . The bases lie horizontally between the two spiraling strands . ( animated version ) . The DNA double helix is stabilized primarily by two forces : hydrogen bonds between nucleotides and base - stacking interactions among aromatic nucleobases . In the aqueous environment of the cell , the conjugated π bonds of nucleotide bases align perpendicular to the axis of the DNA molecule , minimizing their interaction with the solvation shell . The four bases found in DNA are adenine ( A ) , cytosine ( C ) , guanine ( G ) and thymine ( T ) . These four bases are attached to the sugar - phosphate to form the complete nucleotide , as shown for adenosine monophosphate . Adenine pairs with thymine and guanine pairs with cytosine . It was represented by A-T base pairs and G-C base pairs . Nucleobase classification The nucleobases are classified into two types : the purines , A and G , being fused five - and six - membered heterocyclic compounds , and the pyrimidines , the six - membered rings C and T. A fifth pyrimidine nucleobase , uracil ( U ) , usually takes the place of thymine in RNA and differs from thymine by lacking a methyl group on its ring . In addition to RNA and DNA , many artificial nucleic acid analogues have been created to study the properties of nucleic acids , or for use in biotechnology . Non canonical bases Uracil is not usually found in DNA , occurring only as a breakdown product of cytosine . However , in several bacteriophages , Bacillus subtilis bacteriophages PBS1 and PBS2 and Yersinia bacteriophage piR1 - 37 , thymine has been replaced by uracil . Another phage - Staphylococcal phage S6 - has been identified with a genome where thymine has been replaced by uracil . 5 - hydroxymethyldeoxyuridine , ( hm5dU ) is also known to replace thymidine in several genomes including the Bacillus phages SPO1 , φe , SP8 , H1 , 2C and SP82 . Another modified uracil - 5 - dihydroxypentauracil -- has also been described . Base J ( beta - d - glucopyranosyloxymethyluracil ) , a modified form of uracil , is also found in several organisms : the flagellates Diplonema and Euglena , and all the kinetoplastid genera . Biosynthesis of J occurs in two steps : in the first step , a specific thymidine in DNA is converted into hydroxymethyldeoxyuridine ; in the second , HOMedU is glycosylated to form J. Proteins that bind specifically to this base have been identified . These proteins appear to be distant relatives of the Tet1 oncogene that is involved in the pathogenesis of acute myeloid leukemia . J appears to act as a termination signal for RNA polymerase II . In 1976 a bacteriophage - S - 2L - which infects species of the genus Synechocystis was found to have all the adenosine bases within its genome replaced by 2 , 6 - diaminopurine . In 2016 deoxyarchaeosine was found to be present in the genomes of several bacteria and the Escherichia phage 9g . Modified bases also occur in DNA . The first of these recognised was 5 - methylcytosine which was found in the genome of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in 1925 . The complete replacement of cytosine by 5 - glycosylhydroxymethylcytosine in T even phages ( T2 , T4 and T6 ) was observed in 1953 In the genomes of Xanthomonas oryzae bacteriophage Xp12 and halovirus FH the full complement of cystosine has been replaced by 5 - methylcytosine . 6N - methyadenine was discovered to be present in DNA in 1955 . N6 - carbamoyl - methyladenine was described in 1975 . 7 - methylguanine was described in 1976 . N4 - methylcytosine in DNA was described in 1983 . In 1985 5 - hydroxycytosine was found in the genomes of the Rhizobium phages RL38JI and N17 . α - putrescinylthymine occurs in both the genomes of the Delftia phage ΦW - 14 and the Bacillus phage SP10 . α - glutamylthymidine is found in the Bacillus phage SP01 and 5 - dihydroxypentyluracil is found in the Bacillus phage SP15 . The reason for the presence of these non canonical bases in DNA is not known . It seems likely that at least part of the reason for their presence in bacterial viruses ( phages ) is to avoid the restriction enzymes present in bacteria . This enzyme system acts at least in part as a molecular immune system protecting bacteria from infection by viruses . This does not appear to be the entire story . Four modifications to the cytosine residues in human DNA have been reported . These modifications are the addition of methyl ( CH ) - , hydroxymethyl ( CH OH ) - , formyl ( CHO ) - and carboxyl ( COOH ) - groups . These modifications are thought to have regulatory functions . Listing of non canonical bases found in DNA Seventeen non canonical bases are known to occur in DNA . Most of these are modifications of the canonical bases plus uracil . Modified Adenosine N6 - carbamoyl - methyladenine N6 - methyadenine Modified Guanine 7 - Methylguanine Modified Cytosine N4 - Methylcytosine 5 - Carboxylcytosine 5 - Formylcytosine 5 - Glycosylhydroxymethylcytosine 5 - Hydroxycytosine 5 - Methylcytosine Modified Thymidine α - Glutamythymidine α - Putrescinylthymine Uracil and modifications Base J Uracil 5 - Dihydroxypentauracil 5 - Hydroxymethyldeoxyuracil Others Deoxyarchaeosine 2 , 6 - Diaminopurine DNA major and minor grooves . The latter is a binding site for the Hoechst stain dye 33258 . Grooves Twin helical strands form the DNA backbone . Another double helix may be found tracing the spaces , or grooves , between the strands . These voids are adjacent to the base pairs and may provide a binding site . As the strands are not symmetrically located with respect to each other , the grooves are unequally sized . One groove , the major groove , is 22 Å wide and the other , the minor groove , is 12 Å wide . The width of the major groove means that the edges of the bases are more accessible in the major groove than in the minor groove . As a result , proteins such as transcription factors that can bind to specific sequences in double - stranded DNA usually make contact with the sides of the bases exposed in the major groove . This situation varies in unusual conformations of DNA within the cell ( see below ) , but the major and minor grooves are always named to reflect the differences in size that would be seen if the DNA is twisted back into the ordinary B form . Base pairing Further information : Base pair In a DNA double helix , each type of nucleobase on one strand bonds with just one type of nucleobase on the other strand . This is called complementary base pairing . Here , purines form hydrogen bonds to pyrimidines , with adenine bonding only to thymine in two hydrogen bonds , and cytosine bonding only to guanine in three hydrogen bonds . This arrangement of two nucleotides binding together across the double helix is called a Watson - Crick base pair . Another type of base pairing is Hoogsteen base pairing where two hydrogen bonds form between guanine and cytosine . As hydrogen bonds are not covalent , they can be broken and rejoined relatively easily . The two strands of DNA in a double helix can thus be pulled apart like a zipper , either by a mechanical force or high temperature . As a result of this base pair complementarity , all the information in the double - stranded sequence of a DNA helix is duplicated on each strand , which is vital in DNA replication . This reversible and specific interaction between complementary base pairs is critical for all the functions of DNA in living organisms . Top , a GC base pair with three hydrogen bonds . Bottom , an AT base pair with two hydrogen bonds . Non-covalent hydrogen bonds between the pairs are shown as dashed lines . The two types of base pairs form different numbers of hydrogen bonds , AT forming two hydrogen bonds , and GC forming three hydrogen bonds ( see figures , right ) . DNA with high GC - content is more stable than DNA with low GC - content . As noted above , most DNA molecules are actually two polymer strands , bound together in a helical fashion by noncovalent bonds ; this double - stranded ( dsDNA ) structure is maintained largely by the intrastrand base stacking interactions , which are strongest for G , C stacks . The two strands can come apart -- a process known as melting -- to form two single - stranded DNA ( ssDNA ) molecules . Melting occurs at high temperature , low salt and high pH ( low pH also melts DNA , but since DNA is unstable due to acid depurination , low pH is rarely used ) . The stability of the dsDNA form depends not only on the GC - content ( % G , C basepairs ) but also on sequence ( since stacking is sequence specific ) and also length ( longer molecules are more stable ) . The stability can be measured in various ways ; a common way is the `` melting temperature '' , which is the temperature at which 50 % of the ds molecules are converted to ss molecules ; melting temperature is dependent on ionic strength and the concentration of DNA . As a result , it is both the percentage of GC base pairs and the overall length of a DNA double helix that determines the strength of the association between the two strands of DNA . Long DNA helices with a high GC - content have stronger - interacting strands , while short helices with high AT content have weaker - interacting strands . In biology , parts of the DNA double helix that need to separate easily , such as the TATAAT Pribnow box in some promoters , tend to have a high AT content , making the strands easier to pull apart . In the laboratory , the strength of this interaction can be measured by finding the temperature necessary to break the hydrogen bonds , their melting temperature ( also called T value ) . When all the base pairs in a DNA double helix melt , the strands separate and exist in solution as two entirely independent molecules . These single - stranded DNA molecules have no single common shape , but some conformations are more stable than others . Sense and antisense Further information : Sense ( molecular biology ) A DNA sequence is called `` sense '' if its sequence is the same as that of a messenger RNA copy that is translated into protein . The sequence on the opposite strand is called the `` antisense '' sequence . Both sense and antisense sequences can exist on different parts of the same strand of DNA ( i.e. both strands can contain both sense and antisense sequences ) . In both prokaryotes and eukaryotes , antisense RNA sequences are produced , but the functions of these RNAs are not entirely clear . One proposal is that antisense RNAs are involved in regulating gene expression through RNA - RNA base pairing . A few DNA sequences in prokaryotes and eukaryotes , and more in plasmids and viruses , blur the distinction between sense and antisense strands by having overlapping genes . In these cases , some DNA sequences do double duty , encoding one protein when read along one strand , and a second protein when read in the opposite direction along the other strand . In bacteria , this overlap may be involved in the regulation of gene transcription , while in viruses , overlapping genes increase the amount of information that can be encoded within the small viral genome . Supercoiling Further information : DNA supercoil DNA can be twisted like a rope in a process called DNA supercoiling . With DNA in its `` relaxed '' state , a strand usually circles the axis of the double helix once every 10.4 base pairs , but if the DNA is twisted the strands become more tightly or more loosely wound . If the DNA is twisted in the direction of the helix , this is positive supercoiling , and the bases are held more tightly together . If they are twisted in the opposite direction , this is negative supercoiling , and the bases come apart more easily . In nature , most DNA has slight negative supercoiling that is introduced by enzymes called topoisomerases . These enzymes are also needed to relieve the twisting stresses introduced into DNA strands during processes such as transcription and DNA replication . From left to right , the structures of A , B and Z DNA Alternative DNA structures Further information : Molecular Structure of Nucleic Acids : A Structure for Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid , Molecular models of DNA , and DNA structure DNA exists in many possible conformations that include A-DNA , B - DNA , and Z - DNA forms , although , only B - DNA and Z - DNA have been directly observed in functional organisms . The conformation that DNA adopts depends on the hydration level , DNA sequence , the amount and direction of supercoiling , chemical modifications of the bases , the type and concentration of metal ions , and the presence of polyamines in solution . The first published reports of A-DNA X-ray diffraction patterns -- and also B - DNA -- used analyses based on Patterson transforms that provided only a limited amount of structural information for oriented fibers of DNA . An alternative analysis was then proposed by Wilkins et al. , in 1953 , for the in vivo B - DNA X-ray diffraction - scattering patterns of highly hydrated DNA fibers in terms of squares of Bessel functions . In the same journal , James Watson and Francis Crick presented their molecular modeling analysis of the DNA X-ray diffraction patterns to suggest that the structure was a double - helix . Although the B - DNA form is most common under the conditions found in cells , it is not a well - defined conformation but a family of related DNA conformations that occur at the high hydration levels present in living cells . Their corresponding X-ray diffraction and scattering patterns are characteristic of molecular paracrystals with a significant degree of disorder . Compared to B - DNA , the A-DNA form is a wider right - handed spiral , with a shallow , wide minor groove and a narrower , deeper major groove . The A form occurs under non-physiological conditions in partly dehydrated samples of DNA , while in the cell it may be produced in hybrid pairings of DNA and RNA strands , and in enzyme - DNA complexes . Segments of DNA where the bases have been chemically modified by methylation may undergo a larger change in conformation and adopt the Z form . Here , the strands turn about the helical axis in a left - handed spiral , the opposite of the more common B form . These unusual structures can be recognized by specific Z - DNA binding proteins and may be involved in the regulation of transcription . Alternative DNA chemistry For many years exobiologists have proposed the existence of a shadow biosphere , a postulated microbial biosphere of Earth that uses radically different biochemical and molecular processes than currently known life . One of the proposals was the existence of lifeforms that use arsenic instead of phosphorus in DNA . A report in 2010 of the possibility in the bacterium GFAJ - 1 , was announced , though the research was disputed , and evidence suggests the bacterium actively prevents the incorporation of arsenic into the DNA backbone and other biomolecules . Quadruplex structures Further information : G - quadruplex At the ends of the linear chromosomes are specialized regions of DNA called telomeres . The main function of these regions is to allow the cell to replicate chromosome ends using the enzyme telomerase , as the enzymes that normally replicate DNA can not copy the extreme 3 ′ ends of chromosomes . These specialized chromosome caps also help protect the DNA ends , and stop the DNA repair systems in the cell from treating them as damage to be corrected . In human cells , telomeres are usually lengths of single - stranded DNA containing several thousand repeats of a simple TTAGGG sequence . DNA quadruplex formed by telomere repeats . The looped conformation of the DNA backbone is very different from the typical DNA helix . The green spheres in the center represent potassium ions . These guanine - rich sequences may stabilize chromosome ends by forming structures of stacked sets of four - base units , rather than the usual base pairs found in other DNA molecules . Here , four guanine bases form a flat plate and these flat four - base units then stack on top of each other , to form a stable G - quadruplex structure . These structures are stabilized by hydrogen bonding between the edges of the bases and chelation of a metal ion in the centre of each four - base unit . Other structures can also be formed , with the central set of four bases coming from either a single strand folded around the bases , or several different parallel strands , each contributing one base to the central structure . In addition to these stacked structures , telomeres also form large loop structures called telomere loops , or T - loops . Here , the single - stranded DNA curls around in a long circle stabilized by telomere - binding proteins . At the very end of the T - loop , the single - stranded telomere DNA is held onto a region of double - stranded DNA by the telomere strand disrupting the double - helical DNA and base pairing to one of the two strands . This triple - stranded structure is called a displacement loop or D - loop . Single branch Multiple branches Branched DNA can form networks containing multiple branches . Branched DNA Further information : Branched DNA and DNA nanotechnology In DNA , fraying occurs when non-complementary regions exist at the end of an otherwise complementary double - strand of DNA . However , branched DNA can occur if a third strand of DNA is introduced and contains adjoining regions able to hybridize with the frayed regions of the pre-existing double - strand . Although the simplest example of branched DNA involves only three strands of DNA , complexes involving additional strands and multiple branches are also possible . Branched DNA can be used in nanotechnology to construct geometric shapes , see the section on uses in technology below . Chemical modifications and altered DNA packaging cytosine 5 - methylcytosine thymine Structure of cytosine with and without the 5 - methyl group . Deamination converts 5 - methylcytosine into thymine . Base modifications and DNA packaging Further information : DNA methylation and Chromatin remodeling The expression of genes is influenced by how the DNA is packaged in chromosomes , in a structure called chromatin . Base modifications can be involved in packaging , with regions that have low or no gene expression usually containing high levels of methylation of cytosine bases . DNA packaging and its influence on gene expression can also occur by covalent modifications of the histone protein core around which DNA is wrapped in the chromatin structure or else by remodeling carried out by chromatin remodeling complexes ( see Chromatin remodeling ) . There is , further , crosstalk between DNA methylation and histone modification , so they can coordinately affect chromatin and gene expression . For one example , cytosine methylation produces 5 - methylcytosine , which is important for X-inactivation of chromosomes . The average level of methylation varies between organisms -- the worm Caenorhabditis elegans lacks cytosine methylation , while vertebrates have higher levels , with up to 1 % of their DNA containing 5 - methylcytosine . Despite the importance of 5 - methylcytosine , it can deaminate to leave a thymine base , so methylated cytosines are particularly prone to mutations . Other base modifications include adenine methylation in bacteria , the presence of 5 - hydroxymethylcytosine in the brain , and the glycosylation of uracil to produce the `` J - base '' in kinetoplastids . Damage Further information : DNA damage ( naturally occurring ) , Mutation , and DNA damage theory of aging A covalent adduct between a metabolically activated form of benzo ( a ) pyrene , the major mutagen in tobacco smoke , and DNA DNA can be damaged by many sorts of mutagens , which change the DNA sequence . Mutagens include oxidizing agents , alkylating agents and also high - energy electromagnetic radiation such as ultraviolet light and X-rays . The type of DNA damage produced depends on the type of mutagen . For example , UV light can damage DNA by producing thymine dimers , which are cross-links between pyrimidine bases . On the other hand , oxidants such as free radicals or hydrogen peroxide produce multiple forms of damage , including base modifications , particularly of guanosine , and double - strand breaks . A typical human cell contains about 150,000 bases that have suffered oxidative damage . Of these oxidative lesions , the most dangerous are double - strand breaks , as these are difficult to repair and can produce point mutations , insertions , deletions from the DNA sequence , and chromosomal translocations . These mutations can cause cancer . Because of inherent limits in the DNA repair mechanisms , if humans lived long enough , they would all eventually develop cancer . DNA damages that are naturally occurring , due to normal cellular processes that produce reactive oxygen species , the hydrolytic activities of cellular water , etc. , also occur frequently . Although most of these damages are repaired , in any cell some DNA damage may remain despite the action of repair processes . These remaining DNA damages accumulate with age in mammalian postmitotic tissues . This accumulation appears to be an important underlying cause of aging . Many mutagens fit into the space between two adjacent base pairs , this is called intercalation . Most intercalators are aromatic and planar molecules ; examples include ethidium bromide , acridines , daunomycin , and doxorubicin . For an intercalator to fit between base pairs , the bases must separate , distorting the DNA strands by unwinding of the double helix . This inhibits both transcription and DNA replication , causing toxicity and mutations . As a result , DNA intercalators may be carcinogens , and in the case of thalidomide , a teratogen . Others such as benzo ( a ) pyrene diol epoxide and aflatoxin form DNA adducts that induce errors in replication . Nevertheless , due to their ability to inhibit DNA transcription and replication , other similar toxins are also used in chemotherapy to inhibit rapidly growing cancer cells . Biological functions Location of eukaryote nuclear DNA within the chromosomes . DNA usually occurs as linear chromosomes in eukaryotes , and circular chromosomes in prokaryotes . The set of chromosomes in a cell makes up its genome ; the human genome has approximately 3 billion base pairs of DNA arranged into 46 chromosomes . The information carried by DNA is held in the sequence of pieces of DNA called genes . Transmission of genetic information in genes is achieved via complementary base pairing . For example , in transcription , when a cell uses the information in a gene , the DNA sequence is copied into a complementary RNA sequence through the attraction between the DNA and the correct RNA nucleotides . Usually , this RNA copy is then used to make a matching protein sequence in a process called translation , which depends on the same interaction between RNA nucleotides . In alternative fashion , a cell may simply copy its genetic information in a process called DNA replication . The details of these functions are covered in other articles ; here the focus is on the interactions between DNA and other molecules that mediate the function of the genome . Genes and genomes Further information : Cell nucleus , Chromatin , Chromosome , Gene , and Noncoding DNA Genomic DNA is tightly and orderly packed in the process called DNA condensation , to fit the small available volumes of the cell . In eukaryotes , DNA is located in the cell nucleus , with small amounts in mitochondria and chloroplasts . In prokaryotes , the DNA is held within an irregularly shaped body in the cytoplasm called the nucleoid . The genetic information in a genome is held within genes , and the complete set of this information in an organism is called its genotype . A gene is a unit of heredity and is a region of DNA that influences a particular characteristic in an organism . Genes contain an open reading frame that can be transcribed , and regulatory sequences such as promoters and enhancers , which control transcription of the open reading frame . In many species , only a small fraction of the total sequence of the genome encodes protein . For example , only about 1.5 % of the human genome consists of protein - coding exons , with over 50 % of human DNA consisting of non-coding repetitive sequences . The reasons for the presence of so much noncoding DNA in eukaryotic genomes and the extraordinary differences in genome size , or C - value , among species , represent a long - standing puzzle known as the `` C - value enigma '' . However , some DNA sequences that do not code protein may still encode functional non-coding RNA molecules , which are involved in the regulation of gene expression . T7 RNA polymerase ( blue ) producing an mRNA ( green ) from a DNA template ( orange ) . Some noncoding DNA sequences play structural roles in chromosomes . Telomeres and centromeres typically contain few genes but are important for the function and stability of chromosomes . An abundant form of noncoding DNA in humans are pseudogenes , which are copies of genes that have been disabled by mutation . These sequences are usually just molecular fossils , although they can occasionally serve as raw genetic material for the creation of new genes through the process of gene duplication and divergence . Transcription and translation Further information : Genetic code , Transcription ( genetics ) , and Protein biosynthesis A gene is a sequence of DNA that contains genetic information and can influence the phenotype of an organism . Within a gene , the sequence of bases along a DNA strand defines a messenger RNA sequence , which then defines one or more protein sequences . The relationship between the nucleotide sequences of genes and the amino - acid sequences of proteins is determined by the rules of translation , known collectively as the genetic code . The genetic code consists of three - letter ' words ' called codons formed from a sequence of three nucleotides ( e.g. ACT , CAG , TTT ) . In transcription , the codons of a gene are copied into messenger RNA by RNA polymerase . This RNA copy is then decoded by a ribosome that reads the RNA sequence by base - pairing the messenger RNA to transfer RNA , which carries amino acids . Since there are 4 bases in 3 - letter combinations , there are 64 possible codons ( 4 combinations ) . These encode the twenty standard amino acids , giving most amino acids more than one possible codon . There are also three ' stop ' or ' nonsense ' codons signifying the end of the coding region ; these are the TAA , TGA , and TAG codons . DNA replication . The double helix is unwound by a helicase and topoisomerase . Next , one DNA polymerase produces the leading strand copy . Another DNA polymerase binds to the lagging strand . This enzyme makes discontinuous segments ( called Okazaki fragments ) before DNA ligase joins them together . Replication Further information : DNA replication Cell division is essential for an organism to grow , but , when a cell divides , it must replicate the DNA in its genome so that the two daughter cells have the same genetic information as their parent . The double - stranded structure of DNA provides a simple mechanism for DNA replication . Here , the two strands are separated and then each strand 's complementary DNA sequence is recreated by an enzyme called DNA polymerase . This enzyme makes the complementary strand by finding the correct base through complementary base pairing and bonding it onto the original strand . As DNA polymerases can only extend a DNA strand in a 5 ′ to 3 ′ direction , different mechanisms are used to copy the antiparallel strands of the double helix . In this way , the base on the old strand dictates which base appears on the new strand , and the cell ends up with a perfect copy of its DNA . Extracellular nucleic acids Naked extracellular DNA ( eDNA ) , most of it released by cell death , is nearly ubiquitous in the environment . Its concentration in soil may be as high as 2 μg / L , and its concentration in natural aquatic environments may be as high at 88 μg / L. Various possible functions have been proposed for eDNA : it may be involved in horizontal gene transfer ; it may provide nutrients ; and it may act as a buffer to recruit or titrate ions or antibiotics . Extracellular DNA acts as a functional extracellular matrix component in the biofilms of several bacterial species . It may act as a recognition factor to regulate the attachment and dispersal of specific cell types in the biofilm ; it may contribute to biofilm formation ; and it may contribute to the biofilm 's physical strength and resistance to biological stress . Cell - free fetal DNA is found in the blood of the mother , and can be sequenced to determine a great deal of information about the developing fetus . Interactions with proteins All the functions of DNA depend on interactions with proteins . These protein interactions can be non-specific , or the protein can bind specifically to a single DNA sequence . Enzymes can also bind to DNA and of these , the polymerases that copy the DNA base sequence in transcription and DNA replication are particularly important . DNA - binding proteins Further information : DNA - binding protein Interaction of DNA ( in orange ) with histones ( in blue ) . These proteins ' basic amino acids bind to the acidic phosphate groups on DNA . Structural proteins that bind DNA are well - understood examples of non-specific DNA - protein interactions . Within chromosomes , DNA is held in complexes with structural proteins . These proteins organize the DNA into a compact structure called chromatin . In eukaryotes , this structure involves DNA binding to a complex of small basic proteins called histones , while in prokaryotes multiple types of proteins are involved . The histones form a disk - shaped complex called a nucleosome , which contains two complete turns of double - stranded DNA wrapped around its surface . These non-specific interactions are formed through basic residues in the histones , making ionic bonds to the acidic sugar - phosphate backbone of the DNA , and are thus largely independent of the base sequence . Chemical modifications of these basic amino acid residues include methylation , phosphorylation , and acetylation . These chemical changes alter the strength of the interaction between the DNA and the histones , making the DNA more or less accessible to transcription factors and changing the rate of transcription . Other non-specific DNA - binding proteins in chromatin include the high - mobility group proteins , which bind to bent or distorted DNA . These proteins are important in bending arrays of nucleosomes and arranging them into the larger structures that make up chromosomes . A distinct group of DNA - binding proteins is the DNA - binding proteins that specifically bind single - stranded DNA . In humans , replication protein A is the best - understood member of this family and is used in processes where the double helix is separated , including DNA replication , recombination , and DNA repair . These binding proteins seem to stabilize single - stranded DNA and protect it from forming stem - loops or being degraded by nucleases . The lambda repressor helix - turn - helix transcription factor bound to its DNA target In contrast , other proteins have evolved to bind to particular DNA sequences . The most intensively studied of these are the various transcription factors , which are proteins that regulate transcription . Each transcription factor binds to one particular set of DNA sequences and activates or inhibits the transcription of genes that have these sequences close to their promoters . The transcription factors do this in two ways . Firstly , they can bind the RNA polymerase responsible for transcription , either directly or through other mediator proteins ; this locates the polymerase at the promoter and allows it to begin transcription . Alternatively , transcription factors can bind enzymes that modify the histones at the promoter . This changes the accessibility of the DNA template to the polymerase . As these DNA targets can occur throughout an organism 's genome , changes in the activity of one type of transcription factor can affect thousands of genes . Consequently , these proteins are often the targets of the signal transduction processes that control responses to environmental changes or cellular differentiation and development . The specificity of these transcription factors ' interactions with DNA come from the proteins making multiple contacts to the edges of the DNA bases , allowing them to `` read '' the DNA sequence . Most of these base - interactions are made in the major groove , where the bases are most accessible . The restriction enzyme EcoRV ( green ) in a complex with its substrate DNA DNA - modifying enzymes Nucleases and ligases Nucleases are enzymes that cut DNA strands by catalyzing the hydrolysis of the phosphodiester bonds . Nucleases that hydrolyse nucleotides from the ends of DNA strands are called exonucleases , while endonucleases cut within strands . The most frequently used nucleases in molecular biology are the restriction endonucleases , which cut DNA at specific sequences . For instance , the EcoRV enzyme shown to the left recognizes the 6 - base sequence 5 ′ - GATATC - 3 ′ and makes a cut at the horizontal line . In nature , these enzymes protect bacteria against phage infection by digesting the phage DNA when it enters the bacterial cell , acting as part of the restriction modification system . In technology , these sequence - specific nucleases are used in molecular cloning and DNA fingerprinting . Enzymes called DNA ligases can rejoin cut or broken DNA strands . Ligases are particularly important in lagging strand DNA replication , as they join together the short segments of DNA produced at the replication fork into a complete copy of the DNA template . They are also used in DNA repair and genetic recombination . Topoisomerases and helicases Topoisomerases are enzymes with both nuclease and ligase activity . These proteins change the amount of supercoiling in DNA . Some of these enzymes work by cutting the DNA helix and allowing one section to rotate , thereby reducing its level of supercoiling ; the enzyme then seals the DNA break . Other types of these enzymes are capable of cutting one DNA helix and then passing a second strand of DNA through this break , before rejoining the helix . Topoisomerases are required for many processes involving DNA , such as DNA replication and transcription . Helicases are proteins that are a type of molecular motor . They use the chemical energy in nucleoside triphosphates , predominantly adenosine triphosphate ( ATP ) , to break hydrogen bonds between bases and unwind the DNA double helix into single strands . These enzymes are essential for most processes where enzymes need to access the DNA bases . Polymerases Polymerases are enzymes that synthesize polynucleotide chains from nucleoside triphosphates . The sequence of their products is created based on existing polynucleotide chains -- which are called templates . These enzymes function by repeatedly adding a nucleotide to the 3 ′ hydroxyl group at the end of the growing polynucleotide chain . As a consequence , all polymerases work in a 5 ′ to 3 ′ direction . In the active site of these enzymes , the incoming nucleoside triphosphate base - pairs to the template : this allows polymerases to accurately synthesize the complementary strand of their template . Polymerases are classified according to the type of template that they use . In DNA replication , DNA - dependent DNA polymerases make copies of DNA polynucleotide chains . To preserve biological information , it is essential that the sequence of bases in each copy are precisely complementary to the sequence of bases in the template strand . Many DNA polymerases have a proofreading activity . Here , the polymerase recognizes the occasional mistakes in the synthesis reaction by the lack of base pairing between the mismatched nucleotides . If a mismatch is detected , a 3 ′ to 5 ′ exonuclease activity is activated and the incorrect base removed . In most organisms , DNA polymerases function in a large complex called the replisome that contains multiple accessory subunits , such as the DNA clamp or helicases . RNA - dependent DNA polymerases are a specialized class of polymerases that copy the sequence of an RNA strand into DNA . They include reverse transcriptase , which is a viral enzyme involved in the infection of cells by retroviruses , and telomerase , which is required for the replication of telomeres . For example , HIV reverse transcriptase is an enzyme for AIDS virus replication . Telomerase is an unusual polymerase because it contains its own RNA template as part of its structure . It synthesizes telomeres at the ends of chromosomes . Telomeres prevent fusion of the ends of neighboring chromosomes and protect chromosome ends from damage . Transcription is carried out by a DNA - dependent RNA polymerase that copies the sequence of a DNA strand into RNA . To begin transcribing a gene , the RNA polymerase binds to a sequence of DNA called a promoter and separates the DNA strands . It then copies the gene sequence into a messenger RNA transcript until it reaches a region of DNA called the terminator , where it halts and detaches from the DNA . As with human DNA - dependent DNA polymerases , RNA polymerase II , the enzyme that transcribes most of the genes in the human genome , operates as part of a large protein complex with multiple regulatory and accessory subunits . Genetic recombination Structure of the Holliday junction intermediate in genetic recombination . The four separate DNA strands are coloured red , blue , green and yellow . Further information : Genetic recombination Recombination involves the breaking and rejoining of two chromosomes ( M and F ) to produce two rearranged chromosomes ( C1 and C2 ) . A DNA helix usually does not interact with other segments of DNA , and in human cells , the different chromosomes even occupy separate areas in the nucleus called `` chromosome territories '' . This physical separation of different chromosomes is important for the ability of DNA to function as a stable repository for information , as one of the few times chromosomes interact is in chromosomal crossover which occurs during sexual reproduction , when genetic recombination occurs . Chromosomal crossover is when two DNA helices break , swap a section and then rejoin . Recombination allows chromosomes to exchange genetic information and produces new combinations of genes , which increases the efficiency of natural selection and can be important in the rapid evolution of new proteins . Genetic recombination can also be involved in DNA repair , particularly in the cell 's response to double - strand breaks . The most common form of chromosomal crossover is homologous recombination , where the two chromosomes involved share very similar sequences . Non-homologous recombination can be damaging to cells , as it can produce chromosomal translocations and genetic abnormalities . The recombination reaction is catalyzed by enzymes known as recombinases , such as RAD51 . The first step in recombination is a double - stranded break caused by either an endonuclease or damage to the DNA . A series of steps catalyzed in part by the recombinase then leads to joining of the two helices by at least one Holliday junction , in which a segment of a single strand in each helix is annealed to the complementary strand in the other helix . The Holliday junction is a tetrahedral junction structure that can be moved along the pair of chromosomes , swapping one strand for another . The recombination reaction is then halted by cleavage of the junction and re-ligation of the released DNA . Only strands of like polarity exchange DNA during recombination . There are two types of cleavage : east - west cleavage and north - south cleavage . The north - south cleavage nicks both strands of DNA , while the east - west cleavage has one strand of DNA intact . The formation of a Holliday junction during recombination makes it possible for genetic diversity , genes to exchange on chromosomes , and expression of wild - type viral genomes . Evolution Further information : RNA world hypothesis DNA contains the genetic information that allows all modern living things to function , grow and reproduce . However , it is unclear how long in the 4 - billion - year history of life DNA has performed this function , as it has been proposed that the earliest forms of life may have used RNA as their genetic material . RNA may have acted as the central part of early cell metabolism as it can both transmit genetic information and carry out catalysis as part of ribozymes . This ancient RNA world where nucleic acid would have been used for both catalysis and genetics may have influenced the evolution of the current genetic code based on four nucleotide bases . This would occur , since the number of different bases in such an organism is a trade - off between a small number of bases increasing replication accuracy and a large number of bases increasing the catalytic efficiency of ribozymes . However , there is no direct evidence of ancient genetic systems , as recovery of DNA from most fossils is impossible because DNA survives in the environment for less than one million years , and slowly degrades into short fragments in solution . Claims for older DNA have been made , most notably a report of the isolation of a viable bacterium from a salt crystal 250 million years old , but these claims are controversial . Building blocks of DNA ( adenine , guanine , and related organic molecules ) may have been formed extraterrestrially in outer space . Complex DNA and RNA organic compounds of life , including uracil , cytosine , and thymine , have also been formed in the laboratory under conditions mimicking those found in outer space , using starting chemicals , such as pyrimidine , found in meteorites . Pyrimidine , like polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons ( PAHs ) , the most carbon - rich chemical found in the universe , may have been formed in red giants or in interstellar cosmic dust and gas clouds . Uses in technology Genetic engineering Further information : Molecular biology , Nucleic acid methods , and Genetic engineering Methods have been developed to purify DNA from organisms , such as phenol - chloroform extraction , and to manipulate it in the laboratory , such as restriction digests and the polymerase chain reaction . Modern biology and biochemistry make intensive use of these techniques in recombinant DNA technology . Recombinant DNA is a man - made DNA sequence that has been assembled from other DNA sequences . They can be transformed into organisms in the form of plasmids or in the appropriate format , by using a viral vector . The genetically modified organisms produced can be used to produce products such as recombinant proteins , used in medical research , or be grown in agriculture . DNA profiling Further information : DNA profiling Forensic scientists can use DNA in blood , semen , skin , saliva or hair found at a crime scene to identify a matching DNA of an individual , such as a perpetrator . This process is formally termed DNA profiling , but may also be called `` genetic fingerprinting '' . In DNA profiling , the lengths of variable sections of repetitive DNA , such as short tandem repeats and minisatellites , are compared between people . This method is usually an extremely reliable technique for identifying a matching DNA . However , identification can be complicated if the scene is contaminated with DNA from several people . DNA profiling was developed in 1984 by British geneticist Sir Alec Jeffreys , and first used in forensic science to convict Colin Pitchfork in the 1988 Enderby murders case . The development of forensic science and the ability to now obtain genetic matching on minute samples of blood , skin , saliva , or hair has led to re-examining many cases . Evidence can now be uncovered that was scientifically impossible at the time of the original examination . Combined with the removal of the double jeopardy law in some places , this can allow cases to be reopened where prior trials have failed to produce sufficient evidence to convince a jury . People charged with serious crimes may be required to provide a sample of DNA for matching purposes . The most obvious defense to DNA matches obtained forensically is to claim that cross-contamination of evidence has occurred . This has resulted in meticulous strict handling procedures with new cases of serious crime . DNA profiling is also used successfully to positively identify victims of mass casualty incidents , bodies or body parts in serious accidents , and individual victims in mass war graves , via matching to family members . DNA profiling is also used in DNA paternity testing to determine if someone is the biological parent or grandparent of a child with the probability of parentage is typically 99.99 % when the alleged parent is biologically related to the child . Normal DNA sequencing methods happen after birth , but there are new methods to test paternity while a mother is still pregnant . DNA enzymes or catalytic DNA Further information : Deoxyribozyme Deoxyribozymes , also called DNAzymes or catalytic DNA , are first discovered in 1994 . They are mostly single stranded DNA sequences isolated from a large pool of random DNA sequences through a combinatorial approach called in vitro selection or systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment ( SELEX ) . DNAzymes catalyze variety of chemical reactions including RNA - DNA cleavage , RNA - DNA ligation , amino acids phosphorylation - dephosphorylation , carbon - carbon bond formation , and etc . DNAzymes can enhance catalytic rate of chemical reactions up to 100,000,000,000-fold over the uncatalyzed reaction . The most extensively studied class of DNAzymes is RNA - cleaving types which have been used to detect different metal ions and designing therapeutic agents . Several metal - specific DNAzymes have been reported including the GR - 5 DNAzyme ( lead - specific ) , the CA1 - 3 DNAzymes ( copper - specific ) , the 39E DNAzyme ( uranyl - specific ) and the NaA43 DNAzyme ( sodium - specific ) . The NaA43 DNAzyme , which is reported to be more than 10,000-fold selective for sodium over other metal ions , was used to make a real - time sodium sensor in living cells . Bioinformatics Further information : Bioinformatics Bioinformatics involves the development of techniques to store , data mine , search and manipulate biological data , including DNA nucleic acid sequence data . These have led to widely applied advances in computer science , especially string searching algorithms , machine learning , and database theory . String searching or matching algorithms , which find an occurrence of a sequence of letters inside a larger sequence of letters , were developed to search for specific sequences of nucleotides . The DNA sequence may be aligned with other DNA sequences to identify homologous sequences and locate the specific mutations that make them distinct . These techniques , especially multiple sequence alignment , are used in studying phylogenetic relationships and protein function . Data sets representing entire genomes ' worth of DNA sequences , such as those produced by the Human Genome Project , are difficult to use without the annotations that identify the locations of genes and regulatory elements on each chromosome . Regions of DNA sequence that have the characteristic patterns associated with protein - or RNA - coding genes can be identified by gene finding algorithms , which allow researchers to predict the presence of particular gene products and their possible functions in an organism even before they have been isolated experimentally . Entire genomes may also be compared , which can shed light on the evolutionary history of particular organism and permit the examination of complex evolutionary events . DNA nanotechnology The DNA structure at left ( schematic shown ) will self - assemble into the structure visualized by atomic force microscopy at right . DNA nanotechnology is the field that seeks to design nanoscale structures using the molecular recognition properties of DNA molecules . Image from Strong , 2004 . Further information : DNA nanotechnology DNA nanotechnology uses the unique molecular recognition properties of DNA and other nucleic acids to create self - assembling branched DNA complexes with useful properties . DNA is thus used as a structural material rather than as a carrier of biological information . This has led to the creation of two - dimensional periodic lattices ( both tile - based and using the DNA origami method ) and three - dimensional structures in the shapes of polyhedra . Nanomechanical devices and algorithmic self - assembly have also been demonstrated , and these DNA structures have been used to template the arrangement of other molecules such as gold nanoparticles and streptavidin proteins . History and anthropology Further information : Phylogenetics and Genetic genealogy Because DNA collects mutations over time , which are then inherited , it contains historical information , and , by comparing DNA sequences , geneticists can infer the evolutionary history of organisms , their phylogeny . This field of phylogenetics is a powerful tool in evolutionary biology . If DNA sequences within a species are compared , population geneticists can learn the history of particular populations . This can be used in studies ranging from ecological genetics to anthropology ; For example , DNA evidence is being used to try to identify the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel . Information storage Main article : DNA digital data storage In a paper published in Nature in January 2013 , scientists from the European Bioinformatics Institute and Agilent Technologies proposed a mechanism to use DNA 's ability to code information as a means of digital data storage . The group was able to encode 739 kilobytes of data into DNA code , synthesize the actual DNA , then sequence the DNA and decode the information back to its original form , with a reported 100 % accuracy . The encoded information consisted of text files and audio files . A prior experiment was published in August 2012 . It was conducted by researchers at Harvard University , where the text of a 54,000 - word book was encoded in DNA . Moreover , in living cells , the storage can be turned active by enzymes . Light - gated protein domains fused to DNA processing enzymes are suitable for that task in vitro . Fluorescent exonucleases can transmit the output according to the nucleotide they have read . History Further information : History of molecular biology James Watson and Francis Crick ( right ) , co-originators of the double - helix model , with Maclyn McCarty ( left ) . Pencil sketch of the DNA double helix by Francis Crick in 1953 DNA was first isolated by the Swiss physician Friedrich Miescher who , in 1869 , discovered a microscopic substance in the pus of discarded surgical bandages . As it resided in the nuclei of cells , he called it `` nuclein '' . In 1878 , Albrecht Kossel isolated the non-protein component of `` nuclein '' , nucleic acid , and later isolated its five primary nucleobases . In 1909 , Phoebus Levene identified the base , sugar , and phosphate nucleotide unit of the RNA ( then named `` yeast nucleic acid '' ) . In 1929 , Levene identified deoxyribose sugar in `` thymus nucleic acid '' ( DNA ) . Levene suggested that DNA consisted of a string of four nucleotide units linked together through the phosphate groups ( `` tetranucleotide hypothesis '' ) . Levene thought the chain was short and the bases repeated in a fixed order . In 1927 , Nikolai Koltsov proposed that inherited traits would be inherited via a `` giant hereditary molecule '' made up of `` two mirror strands that would replicate in a semi-conservative fashion using each strand as a template '' . In 1928 , Frederick Griffith in his experiment discovered that traits of the `` smooth '' form of Pneumococcus could be transferred to the `` rough '' form of the same bacteria by mixing killed `` smooth '' bacteria with the live `` rough '' form . This system provided the first clear suggestion that DNA carries genetic information . In 1933 , while studying virgin sea urchin eggs , Jean Brachet suggested that DNA is found in cell nucleus and that RNA is present exclusively in the cytoplasm . At the time , `` yeast nucleic acid '' ( RNA ) was thought to occur only in plants , while `` thymus nucleic acid '' ( DNA ) only in animals . The latter was thought to be a tetramer , with the function of buffering cellular pH . In 1937 , William Astbury produced the first X-ray diffraction patterns that showed that DNA had a regular structure . In 1943 , Oswald Avery , along with coworkers Colin MacLeod and Maclyn McCarty , identified DNA as the transforming principle , supporting Griffith 's suggestion ( Avery -- MacLeod -- McCarty experiment ) . DNA 's role in heredity was confirmed in 1952 when Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase in the Hershey -- Chase experiment showed that DNA is the genetic material of the T2 phage . A blue plaque outside The Eagle pub commemorating Crick and Watson Late in 1951 , Francis Crick started working with James Watson at the Cavendish Laboratory within the University of Cambridge . In 1953 , Watson and Crick suggested what is now accepted as the first correct double - helix model of DNA structure in the journal Nature . Their double - helix , molecular model of DNA was then based on one X-ray diffraction image ( labeled as `` Photo 51 '' ) taken by Rosalind Franklin and Raymond Gosling in May 1952 , and the information that the DNA bases are paired . On 28 February 1953 Crick interrupted patrons ' lunchtime at The Eagle pub in Cambridge to announce that he and Watson had `` discovered the secret of life '' . Months earlier , in February 1953 , Linus Pauling and Robert Corey proposed a model for nucleic acids containing three intertwined chains , with the phosphates near the axis , and the bases on the outside . Experimental evidence supporting the Watson and Crick model was published in a series of five articles in the same issue of Nature . Of these , Franklin and Gosling 's paper was the first publication of their own X-ray diffraction data and original analysis method that partly supported the Watson and Crick model ; this issue also contained an article on DNA structure by Maurice Wilkins and two of his colleagues , whose analysis and in vivo B - DNA X-ray patterns also supported the presence in vivo of the double - helical DNA configurations as proposed by Crick and Watson for their double - helix molecular model of DNA in the prior two pages of Nature . In 1962 , after Franklin 's death , Watson , Crick , and Wilkins jointly received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine . Nobel Prizes are awarded only to living recipients . A debate continues about who should receive credit for the discovery . In an influential presentation in 1957 , Crick laid out the central dogma of molecular biology , which foretold the relationship between DNA , RNA , and proteins , and articulated the `` adaptor hypothesis '' . Final confirmation of the replication mechanism that was implied by the double - helical structure followed in 1958 through the Meselson -- Stahl experiment . Further work by Crick and coworkers showed that the genetic code was based on non-overlapping triplets of bases , called codons , allowing Har Gobind Khorana , Robert W. Holley , and Marshall Warren Nirenberg to decipher the genetic code . These findings represent the birth of molecular biology .

A certain irreducible background incidence of cancer is to be expected regardless of circumstances : mutations can never be absolutely avoided , because they are an inescapable consequence of fundamental limitations on the accuracy of DNA replication , as discussed in Chapter 5 . If a human could live long enough , it is inevitable that at least one of his or her cells would eventually accumulate a set of mutations sufficient for cancer to develop .

1924 Winter Olympics medal table - wikipedia 1924 Winter Olympics medal table Jump to : navigation , search Publicity poster for the event The 1924 Winter Olympics , officially known as the I Olympic Winter Games , and known at the time as Semaine Internationale des Sports d'Hiver ( `` International Winter Sports Week '' ) , was a winter multi-sport event held in Chamonix , France , from 25 January to 5 February 1924 . Norway topped the table , collecting seventeen medals in total , including four gold , three of which were won by Thorleif Haug in the nordic combined and cross-country skiing events . Norway also achieved two podium sweeps , winning all three medals in both the 50 km cross-country skiing and the nordic combined . This remained a record at the Winter Olympics until 2014 . When it was held , the games were not formally recognised as being the Olympics , but acknowledged that they were held under the `` high patronage of the International Olympic Committee '' . Partly due to this , varying figures are reported for the number of participants . The International Olympic Committee ( IOC ) website suggests that 258 athletes from 16 nations participated in 16 events across 9 sports . In contrast , the Sports - Reference website lists 313 participants from 19 countries . Bill Mallon , a prominent Olympic Games historian , quotes a figure of 291 competitors in his Historical Dictionary of the Olympic Movement . Meanwhile the official report for the 1924 Summer and Winter Olympics listed 293 athletes from 17 nations . Finland placed second on the table , collecting four gold medals amongst a total of eleven . Clas Thunberg won five of their medals , achieving a medal in each of the speed skating events he took part in ; collecting three gold medals , one silver and one bronze . Eight of the competing nations achieved at least one gold medal , with only Belgium and the hosts , France , medalling without winning a gold medal . One medal was reallocated in 1974 ; during the games , Thorleif Haug of Norway had been awarded the bronze medal in ski jumping , along with his three gold medals . A Norwegian historian discovered that there had been a scoring error , and an American , Anders Haugen , had actually finished in third place . As Haug had died in 1934 , his daughter presented Haugen , aged 83 , with his medal . In the official report , the classification of nations is ranked not by medals , but rather by `` points '' , which were awarded for each position from first to sixth ; not exclusively for gold , silver and bronze . Due to this , Czechoslovakia were included in the table ahead of Belgium , due to two fourth - place finishes , one fifth and one sixth . Italy were also present , in twelfth , for their solitary sixth place . Contents ( hide ) 1 Medal table 2 See also 3 Notes 4 References Medal table ( edit ) Clas Thunberg won five speed skating medals at the games for Finland . The medal table is based on information provided by the IOC and is consistent with IOC convention in its published medal tables . By default , the table is ordered by the number of gold medals the athletes from a nation have won ( in this context , a nation is an entity represented by a National Olympic Committee ) . The number of silver medals is taken into consideration next and then the number of bronze medals . If nations are still tied , equal ranking is given and they are listed alphabetically . Two bronze medals were awarded in the 500 metres speed skating event for the third place tie .

This ligand - binding site on a receptor or enzyme is distinct from the active site . Allosteric modulators alter enzyme activity by binding to the regulatory site . Some allosteric regulators activate enzymes , while others inhibit them . The working hypothesis is that when allosteric regulators bind to the regulatory site , the protein undergoes conformational changes which changes the enzyme 's activity .

Democratic - Republican party - wikipedia Democratic - Republican party Jump to : navigation , search Not to be confused with the Democratic or the Republican Party of the United States . `` Democratic Republican '' redirects here . For other uses , see Democratic Republican ( disambiguation ) . Democratic - Republican Party Other name Jefferson Republicans Leader Thomas Jefferson James Madison James Monroe John Quincy Adams Founded 1792 ( 1792 ) Dissolved 1825 ( 1825 ) Preceded by Anti-Administration party Succeeded by Democratic Party ( Jacksonians ) National Republican Party ( Anti-Jacksonians ) Ideology Agrarianism Anti-Federalism Jeffersonianism Republicanism Colors Red White Blue Politics of United States Political parties Elections The Democratic - Republican Party was an American political party formed by Thomas Jefferson and James Madison between 1791 and 1793 to oppose the centralizing policies of the new Federalist Party run by Alexander Hamilton , who was secretary of the treasury and chief architect of George Washington 's administration . From 1801 to 1825 , the new party controlled the presidency and Congress as well as most states during the First Party System . It began in 1791 as one faction in Congress and included many politicians who had been opposed to the new constitution . They called themselves `` Republicans '' after their ideology , republicanism . They distrusted the Federalist commitment to republicanism . The party splintered in 1824 into the Jacksonian movement ( which became the Democratic Party in 1828 ) and the short - lived National Republican Party ( later succeeded by the Whig Party ) . The term `` Democratic - Republican '' is used especially by modern political scientists for the first `` Republican Party '' ( as opposed to the modern Republican Party founded in 1854 ) . It is also known as the Jeffersonian Republicans . Historians typically use the title `` Republican Party '' . An `` Anti-Administration '' faction met secretly in the national capital ( Philadelphia ) to oppose Hamilton 's financial programs . Jefferson denounced the programs as leading to monarchy and subversive of republicanism . Jefferson needed to have a nationwide party to challenge the Federalists , which Hamilton was building up with allies in major cities . Foreign affairs took a leading role in 1794 -- 1795 as the Republicans vigorously opposed the Jay Treaty with Britain , which was then at war with France . Republicans saw France as more democratic after its revolution , while Britain represented the hated monarchy . The party denounced many of Hamilton 's measures as unconstitutional , especially the national bank . The party was strongest in the South and weakest in the Northeast . It demanded states ' rights as expressed by the `` Principles of 1798 '' articulated in the Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions that would allow states to nullify a federal law . Above all , the party stood for the primacy of the yeoman farmers . Republicans were deeply committed to the principles of republicanism , which they feared were threatened by the supposed monarchical tendencies of the Hamiltonian Federalists . The party came to power in 1801 with the election of Jefferson in the 1800 presidential election . The Federalists -- too elitist to appeal to most people -- faded away and totally collapsed after 1815 . Despite internal divisions , the Republicans dominated the First Party System until partisanship itself withered away during the Era of Good Feelings after 1816 . The party selected its presidential candidates in a caucus of members of Congress . They included Thomas Jefferson ( nominated 1796 ; elected 1800 -- 1801 , 1804 ) , James Madison ( 1808 , 1812 ) and James Monroe ( 1816 , 1820 ) . By 1824 , the caucus system had practically collapsed . After 1800 , the party dominated Congress and most state governments outside New England . By 1824 , the party was also split four ways and lacked a center , as the First Party System collapsed . The emergence of the Second Party System in the 1830s realigned the old factions . One remnant followed Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren into the new Democratic Party by 1828 . Another remnant led by John Quincy Adams and Henry Clay formed the National Republicans in 1828 , which developed into the Whig Party by 1835 .

Then he , Jefferson and others reached out to include state and local leaders around the country , especially New York and the South . The precise date of founding is disputed , but 1791 is a reasonable estimate and some time by 1792 is certain . The new party set up newspapers that made withering critiques of Hamiltonianism , extolled the yeoman farmer , argued for strict construction of the Constitution , favored the French Revolution , strongly opposed Great Britain and called for stronger state governments than the Federalist Party was proposing . Presidential elections of 1792 and 1796 ( edit ) The elections of 1792 were the first ones to be contested on anything resembling a partisan basis . In most states the congressional elections were recognized , as Jefferson strategist John Beckley put it , as a `` struggle between the Treasury department and the republican interest '' . In New York , the candidates for governor were John Jay , a Federalist ; and incumbent George Clinton , who was allied with Jefferson and the Republicans . Four states ' electors voted for Clinton and one ( Kentucky ) for Jefferson for Vice President in opposition to incumbent John Adams as well as casting their votes for President Washington . Before 1804 , electors cast two votes together without differentiation as to which office was to be filled by which candidate . In the 1796 election , the party made its first bid for the presidency with Jefferson as its presidential candidate and Aaron Burr as its vice presidential candidate . Jefferson came in second in the electoral college ( at the time , its balloting could not distinguish between President and Vice President ) and became Vice President . He would become a consistent and strong opponent of the policies of the John Adams administration . Jefferson and Madison were deeply upset by the unconstitutionality of the Alien and Sedition Acts of 1798 and they secretly wrote the Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions , which called on state legislatures to nullify unconstitutional laws . However , the other states did not follow suit and several rejected the notion that states could nullify federal law . The Republican critique of federalism became wrapped in the slogan of `` Principles of 1798 '' , which became the hallmark of the party . The most important of these principles were states ' rights , opposition to a strong national government , distrust of the federal courts and opposition to the navy and the national bank . The party saw itself as a champion of republicanism and denounced the Federalists as supporters of monarchy and aristocracy . The party coalesced around Jefferson , who diligently maintained extensive correspondence with like - minded Republican leaders throughout the country . Washington frequently decried the growing sense of `` party '' emerging from the internal battles among Jefferson , Madison , Hamilton , Adams and others in his administration . As warfare in Europe increased , the two factions increasingly made foreign policy the central political issue of the day . The Republicans wanted to maintain the 1778 alliance with France , which had overthrown the monarchy and aristocracy and become a republic . Even though Britain was by far United States ' leading trading partner , Republicans feared that increased trade would undermine republicanism . The Republicans distrusted Hamilton 's national bank and rejected his premise that a national debt was good for the country as Republicans said they were both forms of corruption . They strongly distrusted the elitism of Hamilton 's circle , denouncing it as `` aristocratic '' ; and they called for states ' rights lest the Federalists centralize ever more power in the national governments . The intense debate over the Jay Treaty in 1794 -- 1795 transformed those opposed to Hamilton 's policies from a loose movement into a true political party . To fight the treaty , the Jeffersonians `` established coordination in activity between leaders at the capital , and leaders , actives and popular followings in the states , counties and towns '' . However , they were defeated when Washington mobilized public opinion in favor of the treaty . Strength in Congress over time ( edit ) Historians have used statistical techniques to estimate the party breakdown in Congress . Many Congressmen were hard to classify in the first few years , but after 1796 there was less uncertainty . Federalist and Democratic - Republican strength in Congress by election year Election year House 1788 1790 1792 1794 1796 1798 1800 1802 1804 1806 Federalist 37 39 51 47 57 60 38 39 25 24 Republican 28 30 54 59 49 46 65 103 116 118 Percentage Republican 43 % 43 % 51 % 56 % 46 % 43 % 63 % 73 % 82 % 83 % Senate 1788 1790 1792 1794 1796 1798 1800 1802 1804 1806 Federalist 18 16 16 21 22 22 15 9 7 6 Republican 8 13 14 11 10 10 17 25 17 28 Percentage Republican 31 % 45 % 47 % 34 % 31 % 31 % 53 % 74 % 71 % 82 % The affiliation of many Congressmen in the earliest years is an assignment by later historians ; these were slowly coalescing groups with initially considerable independent thinking and voting . Cunningham noted that only about a quarter of the House of Representatives up until 1794 voted with Madison as much as two - thirds of the time and another quarter against him two - thirds of the time , leaving almost half as fairly independent . Albert Gallatin recalled only two caucuses on legislative policy between 1795 and 1801 , one over appropriations for Jay 's Treaty and the other over the Quasi-War , but in neither case did the party decide to vote unanimously . Organizational strategy ( edit ) The new party invented some of the campaign and organizational techniques which were later adopted by the Federalists and became standard American practice . It was especially effective in building a network of newspapers in major cities to broadcast its statements and editorialize its policies . Fisher Ames , a leading Federalist , used the term `` Jacobin '' to link members of Jefferson 's party to the radicals of the French Revolution . He blamed the newspapers for electing Jefferson and wrote they were `` an overmatch for any Government ... The Jacobins owe their triumph to the unceasing use of this engine ; not so much to skill in use of it as by repetition '' . As one historian explained : `` It was the good fortune of the Republicans to have within their ranks a number of highly gifted political manipulators and propagandists . Some of them had the ability ... to not only see and analyze the problem at hand but to present it in a succinct fashion ; in short , to fabricate the apt phrase , to coin the compelling slogan and appeal to the electorate on any given issue in language it could understand '' . Outstanding propagandists included editor William Duane ( 1760 -- 1835 ) and party leaders Albert Gallatin , Thomas Cooper and Jefferson himself . Just as important was effective party organization of the sort that John J. Beckley pioneered . In 1796 , he managed the Jefferson campaign in Pennsylvania , blanketing the state with agents who passed out 30,000 hand - written tickets , naming all 15 electors ( printed tickets were not allowed ) . Beckley told one agent : `` In a few days a select republican friend from the City will call upon you with a parcel of tickets to be distributed in your County . Any assistance and advice you can furnish him with , as to suitable districts & characters , will I am sure be rendered '' . Beckley was the first American professional campaign manager and his techniques were quickly adopted in other states . The emergence of the new organizational strategies can be seen in the politics of Connecticut around 1806 , which have been well documented by Cunningham . The Federalists dominated Connecticut , so the Republicans had to work harder to win . In 1806 , the state leadership sent town leaders instructions for the forthcoming elections . Every town manager was told by state leaders `` to appoint a district manager in each district or section of his town , obtaining from each an assurance that he will faithfully do his duty '' . Then the town manager was instructed to compile lists and total the number of taxpayers and the number of eligible voters , find out how many favored the Republicans and how many the Federalists and to count the number of supporters of each party who were not eligible to vote but who might qualify ( by age or taxes ) at the next election . These highly detailed returns were to be sent to the county manager and in turn were compiled and sent to the state manager . Using these lists of potential voters , the managers were told to get all eligible people to town meetings and help the young men qualify to vote . The state manager was responsible for supplying party newspapers to each town for distribution by town and district managers . This highly coordinated `` get - out - the - vote '' drive would be familiar to modern political campaigners , but was the first of its kind in world history . Revolution of 1800 ( edit ) Main article : United States presidential election , 1800 The party 's electors secured a majority in the 1800 election , but an equal number of electors cast votes for Jefferson and Aaron Burr . The tie sent the election to the House and Federalists there blocked any choice . Hamilton , believing that Burr would be a poor choice for president , intervened and let Jefferson win , a move that would result in the collapse of the Federalist Party and Hamilton 's death four years later at the hands of Burr himself in a pistol duel . Starting in 1800 in what Jefferson called the `` Revolution of 1800 '' , the party took control of the presidency and both houses of Congress , beginning a quarter century of control of those institutions . A faction called `` Old Republicans '' opposed the nationalism that grew popular after 1815 as they were stunned when party leaders started a Second Bank of the United States in 1816 . The first official Republican Congressional Caucus meeting took place at Marache 's boarding house on May 11 , 1800 in Philadelphia . The January 26 , 1799 letter Thomas Jefferson wrote to Elbridge Gerry became the party 's platform . In the Senate chamber on February 25 , 1804 , a `` Convention of Republican members of both houses of Congress '' met . Senator Stephen Bradley presided , a Committee on Presidential Electors was formed and it was resolved that Thomas Jefferson be nominated for President and George Clinton be nominated Vice President . The party held a convention by the same name on January 23 , 1808 , again in the Senate chamber at 6 : 00 pm on a Saturday . Senator Stephen Bradley , who was the President pro tempore of the Senate , again served as President of the convention with Representative Richard Johnson as the Secretary . A Committee on Correspondence was formed , James Madison was nominated for President and George Clinton was re-nominated for Vice President . Legislative issues were handled by the Committee of the Whole and the elected Speaker of the House of Representatives and floor leaders , who at that time were the Chairman for the Committee on Ways and Means of the House of Representatives and Chairman for the Committee on Finance of the Senate . The state legislatures often instructed Members of Congress how to vote on specific issues . More exactly , they `` instructed '' the Senators ( who were elected by the legislatures ) and `` requested '' the Representatives ( who were elected by the people ) . On rare occasions a Senator resigned rather than follow instructions . The opposition Federalist Party quickly declined , suffering from a lack of leadership after the death of Hamilton and the retirement of John Adams . It revived briefly in opposition to the War of 1812 , but the extremism of its Hartford Convention of 1815 utterly destroyed it as a political force . National debt ( edit ) Jefferson and Albert Gallatin focused on the danger that the public debt , unless it was paid off , would be a threat to republican values . They were appalled that Hamilton was increasing the national debt and using it to solidify his Federalist base . Gallatin was the Republican Party 's chief expert on fiscal issues and as Treasury Secretary under Jefferson and Madison worked hard to lower taxes and lower the debt , while at the same time paying cash for the Louisiana Purchase and funding the War of 1812 . Burrows says of Gallatin : His own fears of personal dependency and his small shopkeeper 's sense of integrity , both reinforced by a strain of radical republican thought that originated in England a century earlier , convinced him that public debts were a nursery of multiple public evils -- corruption , legislative impotence , executive tyranny , social inequality , financial speculation , and personal indolence . Not only was it necessary to extinguish the existing debt as rapidly as possible , he argued , but Congress would have to ensure against the accumulation of future debts by more diligently supervising government expenditures . However , after examining at Jefferson 's direction the economic structures that Hamilton had created , Gallatin reported : I have found the most perfect system ever formed , and any change that should be made , would only injure it - Hamilton made no blunders , commited no frauds - he did nothing wrong . Fear of a large debt is a major legacy of the party . Andrew Jackson believed the national debt was a `` national curse '' and he took special pride in paying off the entire national debt in 1835 . Politicians ever since have used the issue of a high national debt to denounce the other party for profligacy and a threat to fiscal soundness and the nation 's future . Monroe and Adams ( 1816 -- 1828 ) ( edit ) In rapidly expanding western states , the Federalists had few supporters . Every state had a distinct political geography that shaped party membership . In Pennsylvania , the Republicans were weakest around Philadelphia and strongest in Scots - Irish settlements in the west . Members came from all social classes , but came predominantly from the poor , subsistence farmers , mechanics and tradesmen . After the War of 1812 , partisanship subsided across the young republic -- people called it the Era of Good Feelings . James Monroe narrowly won the party 's nomination for President in Congress over William Crawford in 1816 and defeated Federalist Rufus King in the general election . In the early years of the party , the key central organization grew out of caucuses of Congressional leaders in Washington . However , the key battles to choose electors occurred in the states , not in the caucus . In many cases , legislatures still chose electors ; and in others , the election of electors was heavily influenced by local parties that were heavily controlled by relatively small groups of officials . Without a significant Federalist opposition , the need for party unity was greatly diminished and the party 's organization faded away . James Monroe ran under the party 's banner in the 1820 election and built support by consensus . Monroe faced no serious rival and was nearly unanimously elected by the electoral college . The party 's historic domination by the Virginian delegation faded as New York and Pennsylvania became more important . In the 1824 election , most of the party in Congress boycotted the caucus ; only a small rump group backed William Crawford . The Crawford faction included most `` Old Republicans '' -- those who remained committed to states ' rights and the Principles of 1798 and were distrustful of the nationalizing program promoted by Henry Clay and John C. Calhoun . Thomas Jefferson wrote on the state of party politics in the early 1820s : An opinion prevails that there is no longer any distinction , that the republicans & Federalists are completely amalgamated but it is not so . The amalgamation is of name only , not of principle . All indeed call themselves by the name of Republicans , because that of Federalists was extinguished in the battle of New Orleans . But the truth is that finding that monarchy is a desperate wish in this country , they rally to the point which they think next best , a consolidated government . Their aim is now therefore to break down the rights reserved by the constitution to the states as a bulwark against that consolidation , the fear of which produced the whole of the opposition to the constitution at its birth . Hence new Republicans in Congress , preaching the doctrines of the old Federalists , and the new nick - names of Ultras and Radicals . But I trust they will fail under the new , as the old name , and that the friends of the real constitution and union will prevail against consolidation , as they have done against monarchism . I scarcely know myself which is most to be deprecated , a consolidation , or dissolution of the states . The horrors of both are beyond the reach of human foresight . In the aftermath of the disputed 1824 presidential election , the separate factions took on many characteristics of parties in their own right . Adams ' supporters , in league with Clay , favored modernization , banks , industrial development and federal spending for roads and other internal improvements , which the Old Republicans and the Jackson men usually opposed . Writing in his personal journal on December 13 , 1826 , President Adams noted the difficulty he faced in attempting to be nonpartisan in appointing men to office : And it is upon the occasion of appointments to office that all the wormwood and the gall of the old party hatred ooze out . Not a vacancy to any office occurs but there is a distinguished federalist started and pushed home as a candidate to fill it -- always well qualified , sometimes in an eminent degree , and yet so obnoxious to the Republican party that he can not be appointed without exciting a vehement clamor against him and against the Administration . It becomes thus impossible to fill any appointment without offending one - half the community -- the federalists , if their associate is overlooked ; the Republicans , if he is preferred . Presidential electors were now all chosen by direct election , except in South Carolina , where the state legislatures chose them . White manhood suffrage was the norm throughout the West and in most of the East as well . The voters thus were much more powerful , and to win their votes required complex party organization . Under the leadership of Martin Van Buren , a firm believer in political organization , the Jacksonians built strong state and local organizations throughout the country . The Old Republicans , or `` Radicals '' , mostly supported Jackson and joined with supporters of incumbent Vice President Calhoun in an alliance . President Adams was defeated by Andrew Jackson in the election of 1828 . Republican party name ( edit ) Political parties were new in the United States , and people were not accustomed to having formal names for them . There was no single , official name for the party . Party members generally called themselves `` Republicans '' and voted for what they called the `` Republican party '' , `` republican ticket '' or `` republican interest '' . Jefferson and Madison often used the terms `` republican '' and `` Republican party '' in their letters . The 1804 Convention of Republican members of Congress that renominated Jefferson described itself as a `` regular republican caucus '' . The name Democratic - Republican was used by contemporaries only occasionally . The term `` republican '' was in widespread usage from the 1770s to describe the type of government the break - away colonies wanted to form : a republic of three separate branches of government derived from some principles and structure from ancient republics ; especially the emphasis on civic duty and the opposition to corruption , elitism , aristocracy and monarchy . The word is used in the United States Constitution . Legacy ( edit ) Further information : First Party System and Second Party System A split appeared in the then Republican party during the 1824 elections ( at the end of the Monroe administration ) . When the election was thrown to the House of Representatives , Henry Clay backed John Quincy Adams to deny the presidency to Andrew Jackson , a longtime political rival . Jackson defeated Adams in 1828 and in the next election the first Democratic national convention took place in Baltimore , Maryland on May 21 -- 23 , 1832 . It nominated Andrew Jackson for a second term and he went on to win the presidential election . The Adams / Clay alliance became the basis of the National Republican Party , a rival to the Jackson 's Democracy and one of the successors of the Democratic - Republican Party . This party favored a higher tariff in order to protect U.S. manufacturers , as well as public works , especially roads . Many former members of the defunct Federalist Party , including Daniel Webster , joined the party . After Clay 's defeat by Jackson in the 1832 presidential election , the National Republicans were absorbed into the Whig Party , a diverse group of Jackson opponents . Taking a leaf from the Jacksonians , the Whigs tended to nominate non-ideological war heroes as their presidential candidates . The Whig party fell apart in the 1850s over the question of whether to allow the expansion of slavery into new territories . The modern Republican Party was formed in 1854 to oppose the expansion of slavery . Many former Whig party leaders ( such as Abraham Lincoln -- modern Republican Party supporters still sometimes refer to themselves as `` the party of Lincoln '' ) and former Free Soil Party leaders joined the newly formed anti-slavery party . The party sought to combine Jefferson 's ideals of liberty and equality with Clay 's program of using an active government to modernize the economy . Presidents ( edit ) Four United States Presidents were elected following a process that selected them as a national nominee of the Democratic - Republican party . # Name Portrait State Presidency start date Presidency end date Thomas Jefferson Virginia March 4 , 1801 March 4 , 1809 James Madison Virginia March 4 , 1809 March 4 , 1817 5 James Monroe Virginia March 4 , 1817 March 4 , 1825 6 John Quincy Adams Massachusetts March 4 , 1825 March 4 , 1829 Electoral History ( edit ) Presidential elections ( edit ) Election Candidate Running mate Votes Vote % Electoral votes + / - Outcome of election 1796 Thomas Jefferson Aaron Burr 31,115 46.6 68 / 138 New Lost 1800 41,330 61.4 73 / 138 5 Victory 1804 George Clinton 104,110 72.8 162 / 176 89 Victory 1808 James Madison 124,732 64.7 122 / 176 40 Victory 1812 Elbridge Gerry 140,431 50.4 128 / 217 95 Victory DeWitt Clinton Jared Ingersoll 132,781 47.6 89 / 217 Lost 1816 James Monroe Daniel D.

However , under the pre-12th Amendment election rules , Jefferson won the vice presidency due to dissension among Federalist electors . Jump up ^ In their second presidential run , Jefferson and Burr received the same number of electoral votes . Jefferson was subsequently chosen as President by the House of Representatives . Jump up ^ While commonly labeled as the Federalist candidate , Clinton technically ran as a Democratic - Republican and was not nominated by the Federalist party itself , the latter simply deciding not to field a candidate . This did not prevent endorsements from state Federalist parties ( such as in Pennsylvania ) , but he received the endorsement from the New York state Democratic - Republicans as well . Jump up ^ William H. Crawford and Albert Gallatin were nominated for president and vice-president by a group of 66 Congressmen that called itself the `` Democratic members of Congress '' . Gallatin later withdrew from the contest . Andrew Jackson , John Quincy Adams and Henry Clay ran as Republicans , although they were not nominated by any national body . While Jackson won a plurality in the electoral college and popular vote , he did not win the constitutionally required majority of electoral votes to be elected president . The contest was thrown to the House of Representatives , where Adams won with Clay 's support . The electoral college chose John C. Calhoun for vice president .

The series consists of interviews with one guest per episode both inside and outside a studio setting . The first season will consist of six episodes and will include interviews with Barack Obama , George Clooney , Malala Yousafzai , Jay - Z , Tina Fey , and Howard Stern . Obama was the first guest on the show , with the first episode released on Netflix on January 12 , 2018 . Contents ( hide ) 1 Production 1.1 Development 1.2 Music 2 Episodes 3 Reception 4 References 5 External links Production ( edit ) Development ( edit ) On August 8 , 2017 , it was announced that Netflix had ordered a six - episode interview series starring David Letterman . Each hour - long episode will feature Letterman conducting a longform conversation with a single guest and in - the - field segments , in which he will explore topics on his own . On January 5 , 2018 , Netflix released further information about the series . It was announced that Letterman 's guests in the first season would include Barack Obama , George Clooney , Malala Yousafzai , Jay - Z , Tina Fey , and Howard Stern . It was also announced that the series would premiere on January 12 , 2018 with Letterman 's interview with Obama . This interview was Obama 's first since leaving office . Music ( edit ) The show 's theme song and bridging music were written and recorded by Letterman 's long - time bandleader , Paul Shaffer . Soon after it was announced publicly that Netflix had given the series an order , Shaffer received a phone call from Letterman asking him to work on the show . Soon after , Shaffer began to receive cuts of episodes from the first season and he started to put music in afterwards where the director thought it was needed . In developing the sound of the show 's music , Shaffer initially looked to Letterman for guidance . Finding none , he remembered he and Letterman 's shared love for the sort of music produced at the Muscle Shoals Sound Studio in Sheffield , Alabama describing it as `` the honesty you hear , the southern soul feeling . '' The score initially included drums but the show 's producers and director thought that the music should `` feel like it 's Dave 's old friend Paul playing . '' so it was ultimately stripped down to solely include piano , organ , and bass guitar . Episodes ( edit ) No .

The story describes a small group of men struggling to survive their aircraft 's emergency landing in the Sahara Desert , and stars Richard Attenborough , Peter Finch , Hardy Krüger and Ernest Borgnine . The ensemble cast includes Ian Bannen , Ronald Fraser , Christian Marquand , Dan Duryea and George Kennedy as other passengers on the aircraft . Though the film was a failure at the box office , it has since gained a large following . Contents ( hide ) 1 Plot 2 Cast 3 Production 3.1 Locations 3.2 Aircraft used 4 Reception 5 Awards 6 See also 7 References 8 Further reading 9 External links Plot ( edit ) Frank Towns ( James Stewart ) is the pilot of a twin - engine Fairchild C - 82 Packet cargo plane flying from Jaghbub to Benghazi in Libya ; Lew Moran ( Richard Attenborough ) is the navigator . The passengers include Capt . Harris ( Peter Finch ) and Sgt . Watson ( Ronald Fraser ) of the British Army ; Dr. Renaud ( Christian Marquand ) , a physician ; Heinrich Dorfmann ( Hardy Krüger ) , a German aeronautical engineer ; and an oil company accountant named Standish ( Dan Duryea ) . There are also several oil workers , including Trucker Cobb ( Ernest Borgnine ) , a mentally - disturbed foreman ; Ratbags Crow ( Ian Bannen ) , a mean - spirited , sardonic Scot ; Carlos ( Alex Montoya ) and his pet monkey ; and Gabriel ( Gabriele Tinti ) . A sudden sandstorm disables the engines , forcing Towns to crash - land in the desert . As the aircraft careens to a stop , several oil drums and oil drilling tools break loose and severely injure Gabriel 's leg . Two other workers are killed . The radio is unusable , but the survivors are too far off - course to be found and rescued . They have a large quantity of dates for food , but their water will last for only ten to fifteen days even if they avoid physical exertion . Harris and Carlos attempt to walk to an oasis . Carlos leaves his monkey behind with the men . Harris and Towns refuse to let Cobb go along , but Cobb defiantly follows and dies . Days later , Harris returns to the crash site alone and barely alive . Meanwhile , Dorfmann has been working on a radical idea : He believes they can build a new aircraft from the wreckage . The C - 82 has twin booms extending rearwards from each engine and connected by the horizontal stabilizer . Dorfmann 's plan is to attach the outer sections of the both wings to the left engine and left boom , discarding the center fuselage and both inner wing sections of the aircraft . The passengers will ride on top of the wings . Harris and Moran believe he is either joking or delusional . The argument is complicated by a personality clash between Towns , a proud old traditionalist aviator , and Dorfmann , an equally proud young technician . Moran struggles to keep the peace . Although Towns is resistant , Renaud points out that activity and any hope will keep the men 's morale up , and so Towns agrees with the plan . Dorfmann supervises the reconstruction , while Towns remains doubtful . During the work , Gabriel commits suicide by slitting his wrist , making the men so depressed that they contemplate giving up the new plane 's construction . Dorfmann is caught exceeding his water ration , but explains that he alone has been working continuously , and promises to not do it again while demanding they all work equally hard . Moran talks Towns into resuming work on the aircraft . When the new aircraft is almost complete , Standish labels it `` The Phoenix '' after the mythical bird that is reborn from its ashes . Any good mood , however , is quashed after a band of natives comes nearby . While the others ( and the aircraft ) remain hidden , Harris and Renaud go to ask them for help -- and are murdered . Additionally , Towns and Moran learn that Dorfmann designs model airplanes rather than full - sized ones . Dorfmann claims that the principles are exactly the same , and that in many aspects models require much more exacting designs and can be less forgiving than full - size aircraft , but Towns and Moran are horrified at the idea of flying a plane made by a man who works with `` toys '' . Without any other choice , however , they decide to forge ahead with the plan . Just as the water supplies are exhausted , the Phoenix is completed . Only seven starter cartridges are available for the engine , and the first four startup attempts are unsuccessful . Towns decides to fire the fifth cartridge with the ignition off , to clear the engine 's cylinders , which he does over Dorfmann 's strenuous objection . The next startup is successful . The men pull the Phoenix to a nearby hilltop and climb onto the wings . When Towns guns the engine , the Phoenix slides down the hill and along a lake bed before taking off . After landing at an oasis with a manned oil rig , the men celebrate and Towns and Dorfmann are reconciled . Cast ( edit ) James Stewart as Capt .

( January 2017 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) Locations ( edit ) Principal photography started April 26 , 1965 , at the 20th Century - Fox Studios and 20th Century - Fox Ranch , California . Other filming locations , simulating the desert , were Buttercup Valley , Arizona and Pilot Knob Mesa , California . The flying sequences were all filmed at Pilot Knob Mesa near Winterhaven , located in California 's Imperial Valley , on the western fringes of Yuma , Arizona . Aircraft used ( edit ) The Phoenix `` static '' model as seen in the film In 2005 , Hollywood aviation historian Simon Beck identified the aircraft used in the film : Fairchild C - 82A Packet , N6887C -- flying shots . Fairchild C - 82A Packet , N4833V -- outdoor location wreck . Fairchild C - 82A Packet , N53228 -- indoor studio wreck . Fairchild R4Q - 1 Flying Boxcar ( the USMC C - 119C variant ) , BuNo. 126580 -- non-flying Phoenix prop . Tallmantz Phoenix P - 1 , N93082 -- flying Phoenix aircraft . North American O - 47 A , N4725V -- second flying Phoenix . The C - 82As were from Steward - Davies Inc. at Long Beach , California , while the O - 47A came from the Planes of Fame air museum in California . The R4Q - 1 was purchased from Allied Aircraft of Phoenix , Arizona . The aerial camera platform was a B - 25J Mitchell , N1042B , which was also used in the 1970 film Catch - 22 . The flying sequences were flown by Paul Mantz , co-owner of the Tallmantz Aviation , filling in for his partner Frank Tallman , who had injured his leg . A famous racing / stunt / movie pilot and collector of warplanes , Paul Mantz was flying the Tallmantz Phoenix P - 1 , the machine that was `` made of the wreckage '' , in front of the cameras on the morning of July 8 , 1965 . He was performing touch - and - go landings , and on one touchdown the fuselage buckled . The movie model broke apart and cartwheeled , killing Mantz and seriously injuring stuntman Bobby Rose on board . Although principal photography was completed on August 13 , 1965 , in order to complete filming , a North American O - 47 A ( N4725V ) from the Planes of Fame Air Museum in Chino , California was modified and used as a flying Phoenix stand - in . With the canopy removed , a set of skids attached to the main landing gear as well as ventral fin added to the tail , it sufficed as more - or-less a visual lookalike . Filming using the O - 47A was completed in October / November 1965 . It appears in the last flying scenes , painted to look like the earlier Phoenix P - 1 . The final production utilized a mix of footage that included the O - 47A , the `` cobbled - together '' Phoenix and Phoenix P - 1 . The final credit on the screen was , `` It should be remembered ... that Paul Mantz , a fine man and a brilliant flyer gave his life in the making of this film ... '' Reception ( edit ) The film opened in selected theaters on December 15 , 1965 , with a full release in 1966 . Bosley Crowther of the New York Times dismissed it as `` grim and implausible '' , while Variety praised the film as an `` often - fascinating and superlative piece of filmmaking highlighted by standout performances and touches that show producer - director at his best . '' Awards ( edit ) The Flight of the Phoenix was nominated for two Academy Awards : Ian Bannen for Supporting Actor and Michael Luciano for Film Editing .

Uncle Tom 's Cabin - wikipedia Uncle Tom 's Cabin Jump to : navigation , search This article is about the mid-19th century novel . For other uses , see Uncle Tom 's Cabin ( disambiguation ) . Uncle Tom 's Cabin Uncle Tom 's Cabin , Boston edition Author Harriet Beecher Stowe Original title Uncle Tom 's Cabin ; or , Life Among the Lowly Illustrator Hammatt Billings ( 1st edition ) Country United States Language English Genre Novel Published Serialized in The National Era for ten months , beginning with the June 5 , 1851 issue . Published as a book in two volumes on March 20 , 1852 , John P. Jewett and Company . Followed by A Key to Uncle Tom 's Cabin ( 1853 ) Events leading to the American Civil War Slavery Northwest Ordinance Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions Battle of Negro Fort Missouri Compromise Tariff of 1828 Nat Turner 's slave rebellion Nullification Crisis The Amistad Prigg v. Pennsylvania Texas annexation Mexican -- American War Wilmot Proviso Manifest destiny Underground Railroad Nashville Convention Compromise of 1850 Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 Uncle Tom 's Cabin Kansas -- Nebraska Act Ostend Manifesto Bleeding Kansas Caning of Charles Sumner Dred Scott v. Sandford The Impending Crisis of the South Brown 's raid on Harpers Ferry 1860 presidential election Crittenden Compromise Secession of Southern States Star of the West Corwin Amendment Battle of Fort Sumter Uncle Tom 's Cabin ; or , Life Among the Lowly , is an anti-slavery novel by American author Harriet Beecher Stowe . Published in 1852 , the novel `` helped lay the groundwork for the Civil War '' , according to Will Kaufman . Stowe , a Connecticut - born teacher at the Hartford Female Seminary and an active abolitionist , featured the character of Uncle Tom , a long - suffering black slave around whom the stories of other characters revolve . The sentimental novel depicts the reality of slavery while also asserting that Christian love can overcome something as destructive as enslavement of fellow human beings . Uncle Tom 's Cabin was the best - selling novel of the 19th century and the second best - selling book of that century , following the Bible . It is credited with helping fuel the abolitionist cause in the 1850s . In the first year after it was published , 300,000 copies of the book were sold in the United States ; one million copies in Great Britain . In 1855 , three years after it was published , it was called `` the most popular novel of our day . '' The impact attributed to the book is great , reinforced by a story that when Abraham Lincoln met Stowe at the start of the Civil War , Lincoln declared , `` So this is the little lady who started this great war . '' The quote is apocryphal ; it did not appear in print until 1896 , and it has been argued that `` The long - term durability of Lincoln 's greeting as an anecdote in literary studies and Stowe scholarship can perhaps be explained in part by the desire among many contemporary intellectuals ... to affirm the role of literature as an agent of social change . '' The book and the plays it inspired helped popularize a number of stereotypes about black people . These include the affectionate , dark - skinned `` mammy '' ; the `` pickaninny '' stereotype of black children ; and the `` Uncle Tom '' , or dutiful , long - suffering servant faithful to his white master or mistress . In recent years , the negative associations with Uncle Tom 's Cabin have , to an extent , overshadowed the historical impact of the book as a `` vital antislavery tool .

Much of the book was composed in Brunswick , Maine , where her husband , Calvin Ellis Stowe , taught at his alma mater , Bowdoin College . An engraving of Harriet Beecher Stowe from 1872 , based on an oil painting by Alonzo Chappel Stowe was partly inspired to create Uncle Tom 's Cabin by the slave narrative The Life of Josiah Henson , Formerly a Slave , Now an Inhabitant of Canada , as Narrated by Himself ( 1849 ) . Henson , a formerly enslaved black man , had lived and worked on a 3,700 acres ( 15 km ) tobacco plantation in North Bethesda , Maryland , owned by Isaac Riley . Henson escaped slavery in 1830 by fleeing to the Province of Upper Canada ( now Ontario ) , where he helped other fugitive slaves settle and become self - sufficient , and where he wrote his memoirs . Stowe acknowledged in 1853 that Henson 's writings inspired Uncle Tom 's Cabin . When Stowe 's work became a best - seller , Henson republished his memoirs as The Memoirs of Uncle Tom and traveled on lecture tours extensively in the United States and Europe . Stowe 's novel lent its name to Henson 's home -- Uncle Tom 's Cabin Historic Site , near Dresden , Canada -- which since the 1940s has been a museum . The cabin where Henson lived while he was enslaved no longer exists , but a cabin on the Riley farm erroneously thought to be the Henson Cabin was purchased by the Montgomery County , Maryland , government in 2006 . It is now a part of the National Park Service National Underground Railroad Network to Freedom program , and plans are underway to build a museum and interpretive center on the site . American Slavery As It Is : Testimony of a Thousand Witnesses , a volume co-authored by Theodore Dwight Weld and the Grimké sisters , is also a source of some of the novel 's content . Stowe said she based the novel on a number of interviews with people who escaped slavery during the time when she was living in Cincinnati , Ohio , across the Ohio River from Kentucky , a slave state . In Cincinnati the Underground Railroad had local abolitionist sympathizers and was active in efforts to help runaway slaves on their escape route from the South . Stowe mentioned a number of the inspirations and sources for her novel in A Key to Uncle Tom 's Cabin ( 1853 ) . This non-fiction book was intended to verify Stowe 's claims about slavery . However , later research indicated that Stowe did not read many of the book 's cited works until after she had published her novel . Publication The National Era , June 5 , 1851 Uncle Tom 's Cabin first appeared as a 40 - week serial in The National Era , an abolitionist periodical , starting with the June 5 , 1851 , issue . It was originally intended as a shorter narrative that would run for only a few weeks . Stowe expanded the story significantly , however , and it was instantly popular , such that several protests were sent to the Era office when she missed an issue . Because of the story 's popularity , the publisher John P. Jewett contacted Stowe about turning the serial into a book . While Stowe questioned if anyone would read Uncle Tom 's Cabin in book form , she eventually consented to the request . Convinced the book would be popular , Jewett made the unusual decision ( for the time ) to have six full - page illustrations by Hammatt Billings engraved for the first printing . Published in book form on March 20 , 1852 , the novel sold 3,000 copies on that day alone , and soon sold out its complete print run . A number of other editions were soon printed ( including a deluxe edition in 1853 , featuring 117 illustrations by Billings ) . In the first year of publication , 300,000 copies of Uncle Tom 's Cabin were sold . At that point , however , `` demand came to an unexpected halt ... No more copies were produced for many years , and if , as is claimed , Abraham Lincoln greeted Stowe in 1862 as ' the little woman who wrote the book that made this great war , ' the work had effectively been out of print for many years . '' Jewett went out of business , and it was not until Ticknor and Fields put the work back in print in November 1862 that demand began again to increase . The book was translated into all major languages , and in the United States it became the second best - selling book after the Bible . A number of the early editions carried an introduction by Rev James Sherman , a Congregational minister in London noted for his abolitionist views . Uncle Tom 's Cabin sold equally well in Britain , with the first London edition appearing in May 1852 and selling 200,000 copies . In a few years over 1.5 million copies of the book were in circulation in Britain , although most of these were infringing copies ( a similar situation occurred in the United States ) . Plot Eliza escapes with her son , Tom sold `` down the River '' Full - page illustration by Hammatt Billings for Uncle Tom 's Cabin depicts Eliza telling Uncle Tom that he has been sold and she is running away to save her child ( first edition : Boston : John P. Jewett and Company , 1852 ) . The book opens with a Kentucky farmer named Arthur Shelby facing the loss of his farm because of debts . Even though he and his wife Emily Shelby believe that they have a benevolent relationship with their slaves , Shelby decides to raise the needed funds by selling two of them -- Uncle Tom , a middle - aged man with a wife and children , and Harry , the son of Emily Shelby 's maid Eliza -- to a slave trader . Emily Shelby is averse to this idea because she had promised her maid that her child would never be sold ; Emily 's son , George Shelby , hates to see Tom go because he sees the man as his friend and mentor . When Eliza overhears Mr. and Mrs. Shelby discussing plans to sell Tom and Harry , Eliza determines to run away with her son . The novel states that Eliza made this decision because she fears losing her only surviving child ( she had already miscarried two children ) . Eliza departs that night , leaving a note of apology to her mistress . Tom is sold and placed on a riverboat which sets sail down the Mississippi River . While on board , Tom meets and befriends a young white girl named Eva . Eva 's father Augustine St. Clare buys Tom from the slave trader and takes him with the family to their home in New Orleans . Tom and Eva begin to relate to one another because of the deep Christian faith they both share . Eliza 's family hunted , Tom 's Life with St. Clare Illustration of Tom and Eva by Hammatt Billings for the 1853 deluxe edition of Uncle Tom 's Cabin . During Eliza 's escape , she meets up with her husband George Harris , who had run away previously . They decide to attempt to reach Canada . However , they are tracked by a slave hunter named Tom Loker . Eventually Loker and his men trap Eliza and her family , causing George to shoot him in the side . Worried that Loker may die , Eliza convinces George to bring the slave hunter to a nearby Quaker settlement for medical treatment . Back in New Orleans , St. Clare debates slavery with his Northern cousin Ophelia who , while opposing slavery , is prejudiced against black people . St. Clare , however , believes he is not biased , even though he is a slave owner . In an attempt to show Ophelia that her views on blacks are wrong , St. Clare purchases Topsy , a young black slave , and asks Ophelia to educate her . After Tom has lived with the St. Clares for two years , Eva grows very ill . Before she dies she experiences a vision of heaven , which she shares with the people around her . As a result of her death and vision , the other characters resolve to change their lives , with Ophelia promising to throw off her personal prejudices against blacks , Topsy saying she will better herself , and St. Clare pledging to free Tom . Tom sold to Simon Legree Before St. Clare can follow through on his pledge , however , he dies after being stabbed outside of a tavern . His wife reneges on her late husband 's vow and sells Tom at auction to a vicious plantation owner named Simon Legree . Legree ( a transplanted northerner ) takes Tom and Emmeline ( whom Legree purchased at the same time ) to rural Louisiana , where they meet Legree 's other slaves . Full page illustration by Hammatt Billings for Uncle Tom 's Cabin ( first edition : Boston : John P. Jewett and Company , 1852 ) . Cassy , another of Legree 's slaves , is shown ministering to Uncle Tom after his whipping . Legree begins to hate Tom when Tom refuses Legree 's order to whip his fellow slave . Legree beats Tom viciously and resolves to crush his new slave 's faith in God . Despite Legree 's cruelty , however , Tom refuses to stop reading his Bible and comforting the other slaves as best he can . While at the plantation , Tom meets Cassy , another of Legree 's slaves . Cassy was previously separated from her son and daughter when they were sold ; unable to endure the pain of seeing another child sold , she killed her third child . At this point Tom Loker returns to the story . Loker has changed as the result of being healed by the Quakers . George , Eliza , and Harry have also obtained their freedom after crossing into Canada . In Louisiana , Uncle Tom almost succumbs to hopelessness as his faith in God is tested by the hardships of the plantation . However , he has two visions , one of Jesus and one of Eva , which renew his resolve to remain a faithful Christian , even unto death . He encourages Cassy to escape , which she does , taking Emmeline with her . When Tom refuses to tell Legree where Cassy and Emmeline have gone , Legree orders his overseers to kill Tom . As Tom is dying , he forgives the overseers who savagely beat him . Humbled by the character of the man they have killed , both men become Christians . Very shortly before Tom 's death , George Shelby ( Arthur Shelby 's son ) arrives to buy Tom 's freedom but finds he is too late . Final section On their boat ride to freedom , Cassy and Emmeline meet George Harris ' sister and accompany her to Canada . Cassy discovers that Eliza is her long - lost daughter who was sold as a child . Now that their family is together again , they travel to France and eventually Liberia , the African nation created for former American slaves . George Shelby returns to the Kentucky farm and frees all his slaves . George tells them to remember Tom 's sacrifice and his belief in the true meaning of Christianity . Major characters Uncle Tom Main article : Uncle Tom Simon Legree assaults Uncle Tom . Uncle Tom , the title character , was initially seen as a noble , long - suffering Christian slave . In more recent years , however , his name has become an epithet directed towards African - Americans who are accused of selling out to whites . Stowe intended Tom to be a `` noble hero '' and praiseworthy person . Throughout the book , far from allowing himself to be exploited , Tom stands up for his beliefs and is grudgingly admired even by his enemies . Eliza Eliza is a slave and personal maid to Mrs. Shelby who escapes to the North with her five - year - old son Harry after he is sold to Mr. Haley . Her husband , George , eventually finds Eliza and Harry in Ohio and emigrates with them to Canada , then France and finally Liberia . The character Eliza was inspired by an account given at Lane Theological Seminary in Cincinnati by John Rankin to Stowe 's husband Calvin , a professor at the school . According to Rankin , in February 1838 a young slave woman , Eliza Harris , had escaped across the frozen Ohio River to the town of Ripley with her child in her arms and stayed at his house on her way further north . Eva Little Eva and Uncle Tom by Edwin Longsden Long Evangeline St. Clare is the daughter of Augustine St. Clare . Eva enters the narrative when Uncle Tom is traveling via steamship to New Orleans to be sold , and he rescues the five - or six - year - old girl from drowning . Eva begs her father to buy Tom , and he becomes the head coachman at the St. Clare house . He spends most of his time with the angelic Eva . Eva often talks about love and forgiveness , even convincing the dour slave girl Topsy that she deserves love . She even touches the heart of her Aunt Ophelia . Eventually Eva falls terminally ill . Before dying , she gives a lock of her hair to each of the slaves , telling them that they must become Christians so that they may see each other in Heaven . On her deathbed , she convinces her father to free Tom , but because of circumstances the promise never materializes . A similar character , also named Little Eva , later appeared in the children 's novel Little Eva : The Flower of the South by Philip J. Cozans ( although this ironically was an anti-Tom novel ) . Simon Legree Simon Legree on the cover of the comic book adaptation of Uncle Tom 's Cabin ( Classic Comics No. 15 , November 1943 issue ) . Simon Legree is a cruel slave owner -- a Northerner by birth -- whose name has become synonymous with greed . He is arguably the novel 's main antagonist . His goal is to demoralize Tom and break him of his religious faith ; he eventually orders Tom whipped to death out of frustration for his slave 's unbreakable belief in God . The novel reveals that , as a young man , he had abandoned his sickly mother for a life at sea and ignored her letter to see her one last time at her deathbed . He sexually exploits Cassy , who despises him , and later sets his designs on Emmeline . It is unclear if Legree is based on any actual individuals . Reports surfaced after the 1870s that Stowe had in mind a wealthy cotton and sugar plantation owner named Meredith Calhoun , who settled on the Red River north of Alexandria , Louisiana . Generally , however , the personal characteristics of Calhoun ( `` highly educated and refined '' ) do not match the uncouthness and brutality of Legree . Calhoun even edited his own newspaper , published in Colfax ( originally `` Calhoun 's Landing '' ) , which was renamed The National Democrat after Calhoun 's death . However , Calhoun 's overseers may have been in line with the hated Legree 's methods and motivations . Other characters The more notable of the secondary and minor characters in Uncle Tom 's Cabin are : Arthur Shelby -- Tom 's master in Kentucky . Shelby is characterized as a `` kind '' slaveowner and a stereotypical Southern gentleman . Emily Shelby -- Arthur Shelby 's wife . She is a deeply religious woman who strives to be a kind and moral influence upon her slaves and is appalled when her husband sells his slaves with a slave trader . As a woman , she has no legal way to stop this , as all property belongs to her husband . George Shelby -- Arthur and Emily 's son , who sees Tom as a friend and as the perfect Christian . Chloe -- Tom 's wife and mother of his children . Augustine St. Clare -- Tom 's third owner and father of Eva . St. Clare is complex , often sarcastic , with a ready wit . After a rocky courtship he marries a woman he grows to hold in contempt , though he is too polite to let it show . St. Clare recognizes the evil in chattel slavery but is not willing to relinquish the wealth it brings him . After his daughter 's death he becomes more sincere in his religious thoughts and starts to read the Bible to Tom . He plans on finally taking action against slavery by freeing his slaves , but his good intentions ultimately come to nothing . Marie St. Clare -- Wife of Augustine , she is a self - absorbed woman without a hint of compassion for those around her , including her own family . Given to an unending list of ( apparently imaginary ) physical maladies , she continually complains about the lack of sympathy she is receiving . She has separated her personal maid , Mammy , from her own two children because they would interfere with her duties . As Marie drives Mammy to exhaustion , she criticizes her for selfishly seeking to attend her own family . Upon the unexpected death of Augustine , Marie countermands the legal process that would have given Tom his freedom . George Harris -- Eliza 's husband . An intelligent and clever half - white slave who is fiercely loyal to his family . Little Eva and Topsy by John R. Neill , 1908 Topsy -- A young slave girl . When asked if she knows who made her , she professes ignorance of both God and a mother , saying `` I s'pect I growed . Do n't think nobody never made me . '' She is transformed by Eva 's love . During the early - to - mid 20th century , several doll manufacturers created Topsy and Topsy - type dolls . The phrase `` growed like Topsy '' ( later `` grew like Topsy '' ) passed into the English language , originally with the specific meaning of unplanned growth , later sometimes just meaning enormous growth . Miss Ophelia -- Augustine St. Clare 's pious , hard - working , abolitionist cousin from Vermont . She displays the ambiguities towards African - Americans felt by many Northerners at the time . She argues against the institution of slavery yet , at least initially , feels repulsed by the slaves as individuals . Prue -- A depressed slave who was forced to let her child starve to death . She takes up drinking in her misery , and is ultimately beaten and killed for it . Quimbo and Sambo -- slaves of Simon Legree who act as overseers of the plantation . On orders from Legree , they savagely whip Tom but afterward tearfully repent of their deeds to Tom , who forgives them as he lies dying . Major themes Uncle Tom 's Cabin is dominated by a single theme : the evil and immorality of slavery . While Stowe weaves other subthemes throughout her text , such as the moral authority of motherhood and the redeeming possibilities offered by Christianity , she emphasizes the connections between these and the horrors of slavery . Stowe sometimes changed the story 's voice so she could give a `` homily '' on the destructive nature of slavery ( such as when a white woman on the steamboat carrying Tom further south states , `` The most dreadful part of slavery , to my mind , is its outrages of feelings and affections -- the separating of families , for example . '' ) . One way Stowe showed the evil of slavery was how this `` peculiar institution '' forcibly separated families from each other . One of the subthemes presented in the novel is temperance . Stowe made it somewhat subtle and in some cases she weaved it into events that would also support the dominant theme . One example of this is when Augustine St. Clare is killed , he attempted to stop a brawl between two inebriated men in a cafe and was stabbed . One other example is the death of the slave woman Prue who was whipped to death for being drunk on a consistent basis ; however , her reasons for doing so is due to the loss of her baby . In the opening of the novel , the fates of Eliza and her son are being discussed between slave owners over wine . Considering that Stowe intended this to be a subtheme , this scene could foreshadow future events that put alcohol in a bad light . `` The fugitives are safe in a free land . '' Illustration by Hammatt Billings for Uncle Tom 's Cabin , first edition . The image shows George Harris , Eliza , Harry , and Mrs. Smyth after they escape to freedom . Because Stowe saw motherhood as the `` ethical and structural model for all of American life '' and also believed that only women had the moral authority to save the United States from the demon of slavery , another major theme of Uncle Tom 's Cabin is the moral power and sanctity of women . Through characters like Eliza , who escapes from slavery to save her young son ( and eventually reunites her entire family ) , or Eva , who is seen as the `` ideal Christian '' , Stowe shows how she believed women could save those around them from even the worst injustices . While later critics have noted that Stowe 's female characters are often domestic clichés instead of realistic women , Stowe 's novel `` reaffirmed the importance of women 's influence '' and helped pave the way for the women 's rights movement in the following decades . Stowe 's puritanical religious beliefs show up in the novel 's final , overarching theme -- the exploration of the nature of Christianity and how she feels Christian theology is fundamentally incompatible with slavery . This theme is most evident when Tom urges St. Clare to `` look away to Jesus '' after the death of St. Clare 's beloved daughter Eva . After Tom dies , George Shelby eulogizes Tom by saying , `` What a thing it is to be a Christian . '' Because Christian themes play such a large role in Uncle Tom 's Cabin -- and because of Stowe 's frequent use of direct authorial interjections on religion and faith -- the novel often takes the `` form of a sermon . '' Style Eliza crossing the icy river , in an 1881 theater poster Uncle Tom 's Cabin is written in the sentimental and melodramatic style common to 19th century sentimental novels and domestic fiction ( also called women 's fiction ) . These genres were the most popular novels of Stowe 's time and tended to feature female main characters and a writing style which evoked a reader 's sympathy and emotion . Even though Stowe 's novel differs from other sentimental novels by focusing on a large theme like slavery and by having a man as the main character , she still set out to elicit certain strong feelings from her readers . The power in this type of writing can be seen in the reaction of contemporary readers . Georgiana May , a friend of Stowe 's , wrote a letter to the author , saying : `` I was up last night long after one o'clock , reading and finishing Uncle Tom 's Cabin . I could not leave it any more than I could have left a dying child . '' Another reader is described as obsessing on the book at all hours and having considered renaming her daughter Eva . Evidently the death of Little Eva affected a lot of people at that time , because in 1852 , 300 baby girls in Boston alone were given that name . Despite this positive reaction from readers , for decades literary critics dismissed the style found in Uncle Tom 's Cabin and other sentimental novels because these books were written by women and so prominently featured `` women 's sloppy emotions . '' One literary critic said that had the novel not been about slavery , `` it would be just another sentimental novel , '' while another described the book as `` primarily a derivative piece of hack work . '' In The Literary History of the United States , George F. Whicher called Uncle Tom 's Cabin `` Sunday - school fiction '' , full of `` broadly conceived melodrama , humor , and pathos . '' However , in 1985 Jane Tompkins expressed a different view of Uncle Tom 's Cabin with her book In Sensational Designs : The Cultural Work of American Fiction . Tompkins praised the style so many other critics had dismissed , writing that sentimental novels showed how women 's emotions had the power to change the world for the better . She also said that the popular domestic novels of the 19th century , including Uncle Tom 's Cabin , were remarkable for their `` intellectual complexity , ambition , and resourcefulness '' ; and that Uncle Tom 's Cabin offers a `` critique of American society far more devastating than any delivered by better - known critics such as Hawthorne and Melville . '' This view remains the subject of dispute . Writing in 2001 , legal scholar Richard Posner described Uncle Tom 's Cabin as part of the mediocre list of canonical works that emerges when political criteria are imposed on literature . Reactions to the novel Uncle Tom 's Cabin has exerted an influence equaled by few other novels in history . Upon publication , Uncle Tom 's Cabin ignited a firestorm of protest from defenders of slavery ( who created a number of books in response to the novel ) while the book elicited praise from abolitionists . As a best - seller , the novel heavily influenced later protest literature .

The novel was also roundly criticized by slavery supporters . Acclaimed Southern novelist William Gilmore Simms declared the work utterly false , while others called the novel criminal and slanderous . Reactions ranged from a bookseller in Mobile , Alabama , being forced to leave town for selling the novel to threatening letters sent to Stowe ( including a package containing a slave 's severed ear ) . Many Southern writers , like Simms , soon wrote their own books in opposition to Stowe 's novel . Some critics highlighted Stowe 's paucity of life - experience relating to Southern life , saying that it led her to create inaccurate descriptions of the region . For instance , she had never been to a Southern plantation . However , Stowe always said she based the characters of her book on stories she was told by runaway slaves in Cincinnati . It is reported that `` She observed firsthand several incidents which galvanized her to write ( the ) famous anti-slavery novel . Scenes she observed on the Ohio River , including seeing a husband and wife being sold apart , as well as newspaper and magazine accounts and interviews , contributed material to the emerging plot . '' A Key to Uncle Tom 's Cabin , first edition cover , 1853 In response to these criticisms , in 1853 Stowe published A Key to Uncle Tom 's Cabin , an attempt to document the veracity of the novel 's depiction of slavery . In the book , Stowe discusses each of the major characters in Uncle Tom 's Cabin and cites `` real life equivalents '' to them while also mounting a more `` aggressive attack on slavery in the South than the novel itself had . '' Like the novel , A Key to Uncle Tom 's Cabin was a best - seller . However , while Stowe claimed A Key to Uncle Tom 's Cabin documented her previously consulted sources , she actually read many of the cited works only after the publication of her novel . A major part of the Key was Stowe 's critique of how the legal system supported slavery and licensed owners ' mistreatment of slaves . Thus , Stowe put more than slavery on trial ; she put the law on trial . This continued an important theme of Uncle Tom 's Cabin -- that the shadow of law brooded over the institution of slavery and allowed owners to mistreat slaves and then avoid punishment for their mistreatment . In some cases , as Stowe pointed out , it even prevented kind owners from freeing their slaves . Despite these criticisms , the novel still captured the imagination of many Americans . According to Stowe 's son , when Abraham Lincoln met her in 1862 Lincoln commented , `` So this is the little lady who started this great war . '' Historians are undecided if Lincoln actually said this line , and in a letter that Stowe wrote to her husband a few hours after meeting with Lincoln no mention of this comment was made . Since then , many writers have credited this novel with focusing Northern anger at the injustices of slavery and the Fugitive Slave Law and helping to fuel the abolitionist movement . Union general and politician James Baird Weaver said that the book convinced him to become active in the abolitionist movement . Uncle Tom 's Cabin also created great interest in the United Kingdom . The first London edition appeared in May 1852 and sold 200,000 copies . Some of this interest was because of British antipathy to America . As one prominent writer explained , `` The evil passions which Uncle Tom gratified in England were not hatred or vengeance ( of slavery ) , but national jealousy and national vanity . We have long been smarting under the conceit of America -- we are tired of hearing her boast that she is the freest and the most enlightened country that the world has ever seen . Our clergy hate her voluntary system -- our Tories hate her democrats -- our Whigs hate her parvenus -- our Radicals hate her litigiousness , her insolence , and her ambition . All parties hailed Mrs. Stowe as a revolter from the enemy . '' Charles Francis Adams , the American minister to Britain during the war , argued later that `` Uncle Tom 's Cabin ; or Life among the Lowly , published in 1852 , exercised , largely from fortuitous circumstances , a more immediate , considerable and dramatic world - influence than any other book ever printed . '' A French edition , translated by M.L. Carion ( or by ( Anne - ) Louise Swanton - Belloc ? ( 1796 -- 1881 ) ) , appeared by 1853 published in Cambrai and in Paris . By 1857 , the novel had been translated into 20 languages , including two independent translations into Slovene just one year after its original publication , which started the since - then uninterrupted dialogue between American authors and Slovene translators and readers . Later , it was translated into almost every major language , including Chinese ( with translator Lin Shu creating the first Chinese translation of an American novel in 1901 ) and Amharic ( with the 1930 translation created in support of Ethiopian efforts to end the suffering of blacks in that nation ) . The book was so widely read that Sigmund Freud reported a number of patients with sado - masochistic tendencies who he believed had been influenced by reading about the whipping of slaves in Uncle Tom 's Cabin . A short article which was published in the oficial newspaper of the Salvadoran government in July 22 , 1853 praised Harriet Beecher Stowe and her book 's success . Literary significance and criticism As the first widely read political novel in the United States , Uncle Tom 's Cabin greatly influenced development of not only American literature but also protest literature in general . Later books which owe a large debt to Uncle Tom 's Cabin include The Jungle by Upton Sinclair and Silent Spring by Rachel Carson . Eliza crosses the Ohio on the cover of Pictures and Stories from Uncle Tom 's Cabin , Boston : John P. Jewett & Co. , 1853 . Despite this undisputed significance , Uncle Tom 's Cabin has been called `` a blend of children 's fable and propaganda . '' The novel has also been dismissed by a number of literary critics as `` merely a sentimental novel , '' while critic George Whicher stated in his Literary History of the United States that `` Nothing attributable to Mrs. Stowe or her handiwork can account for the novel 's enormous vogue ; its author 's resources as a purveyor of Sunday - school fiction were not remarkable . She had at most a ready command of broadly conceived melodrama , humor , and pathos , and of these popular sentiments she compounded her book . '' Other critics , though , have praised the novel . Edmund Wilson stated that `` To expose oneself in maturity to Uncle Tom 's Cabin may ... prove a startling experience . '' Jane Tompkins states that the novel is one of the classics of American literature and wonders if many literary critics dismiss the book because it was simply too popular during its day . Over the years scholars have postulated a number of theories about what Stowe was trying to say with the novel ( aside from the obvious themes , such as condemning slavery ) . For example , as an ardent Christian and active abolitionist , Stowe placed many of her religious beliefs into the novel . Some scholars have stated that Stowe saw her novel as offering a solution to the moral and political dilemma that troubled many slavery opponents : whether engaging in prohibited behavior was justified in opposing evil . Was the use of violence to oppose the violence of slavery and the breaking of proslavery laws morally defensible ? Which of Stowe 's characters should be emulated , the passive Uncle Tom or the defiant George Harris ? Stowe 's solution was similar to Ralph Waldo Emerson 's : God 's will would be followed if each person sincerely examined his principles and acted on them . Scholars have also seen the novel as expressing the values and ideas of the Free Will Movement . In this view , the character of George Harris embodies the principles of free labor , while the complex character of Ophelia represents those Northerners who condoned compromise with slavery . Dinah , who operates on passion . During the course of the novel Ophelia is transformed , just as the Republican Party ( three years later ) proclaimed that the North must transform itself and stand up for its antislavery principles . Feminist theory can also be seen at play in Stowe 's book , with the novel as a critique of the patriarchal nature of slavery . For Stowe , blood relations rather than paternalistic relations between masters and slaves formed the basis of families . Moreover , Stowe viewed national solidarity as an extension of a person 's family , thus feelings of nationality stemmed from possessing a shared race . Consequently , she advocated African colonization for freed slaves and not amalgamation into American society . The book has also been seen as an attempt to redefine masculinity as a necessary step toward the abolition of slavery . In this view , abolitionists had begun to resist the vision of aggressive and dominant men that the conquest and colonization of the early 19th century had fostered . In order to change the notion of manhood so that men could oppose slavery without jeopardizing their self - image or their standing in society , some abolitionists drew on principles of women 's suffrage and Christianity as well as passivism , and praised men for cooperation , compassion , and civic spirit . Others within the abolitionist movement argued for conventional , aggressive masculine action . All the men in Stowe 's novel are representations of either one kind of man or the other . Creation and popularization of stereotypes Illustration of Sam from the 1888 `` New Edition '' of Uncle Tom 's Cabin . The character of Sam helped create the stereotype of the lazy , carefree `` happy darky '' . Some modern scholars and readers have criticized the book for supposedly condescending racist descriptions of the black characters ' appearances , speech , and behavior , as well as the passive nature of Uncle Tom in accepting his fate . The novel 's creation and use of common stereotypes about African Americans is significant because Uncle Tom 's Cabin was the best - selling novel in the world during the 19th century . As a result , the book ( along with illustrations from the book and associated stage productions ) was accused of playing a major role in permanently ingraining such stereotypes into the American psyche . In the 1960s and 1970s , the Black Power and Black Arts Movements attacked the novel , claiming that the character of Uncle Tom engaged in `` race betrayal '' , and that Tom made slaves out to be worse than slave owners . Among the stereotypes of blacks in Uncle Tom 's Cabin are the `` happy darky '' ( in the lazy , carefree character of Sam ) ; the light - skinned tragic mulatto as a sex object ( in the characters of Eliza , Cassy , and Emmeline ) ; the affectionate , dark - skinned female mammy ( through several characters , including Mammy , a cook at the St. Clare plantation ) ; the pickaninny stereotype of black children ( in the character of Topsy ) ; the Uncle Tom , an African American who is too eager to please white people . Stowe intended Tom to be a `` noble hero '' and a Christ - like figure who , like Jesus at his crucifixion , forgives the people responsible for his death . The false stereotype of Tom as a `` subservient fool who bows down to the white man '' , and the resulting derogatory term `` Uncle Tom '' , resulted from staged `` Tom Shows '' , which replaced Tom 's grim death with an upbeat ending where Tom causes his oppressors to see the error of their ways , and they all reconcile happily . Stowe had no control over these shows and their alteration of her story . These negative associations have to some extent obscured the historical impact of Uncle Tom 's Cabin as a `` vital antislavery tool ''. . James Baldwin , in a 1949 essay `` Everybody 's Protest Novel '' , called Uncle Tom 's Cabin a `` very bad novel '' ... `` ruined by its `` self - righteous , virtuous sentimentality '' , and stated that Stowe was less a novelist than an `` impassioned pamphleteer '' , i.e. , a propagandist for the antislavery cause . Edward Rothstein has claimed that Baldwin missed the point and that the purpose of the novel was `` to treat slavery not as a political issue but as an individually human one -- and ultimately a challenge to Christianity itself '' ; as a propaganda work it need not necessarily be great literature in order to succeed in its goals . In recent years , however , scholars such as Henry Louis Gates Jr. have re-examined Uncle Tom 's Cabin , stating that the book is a `` central document in American race relations and a significant moral and political exploration of the character of those relations '' . Anti-Tom Literature Title page for Aunt Phillis 's Cabin by Mary Eastman , one of many examples of anti-Tom literature In response to Uncle Tom 's Cabin , writers in the Southern United States produced a number of books to rebut Stowe 's novel . This so - called Anti-Tom literature generally took a pro-slavery viewpoint , arguing that the issues of slavery as depicted in Stowe 's book were overblown and incorrect . The novels in this genre tended to feature a benign white patriarchal master and a pure wife , both of whom presided over childlike slaves in a benevolent extended family style plantation . The novels either implied or directly stated that African Americans were a childlike people unable to live their lives without being directly overseen by white people . Among the most famous anti-Tom books are The Sword and the Distaff by William Gilmore Simms , Aunt Phillis 's Cabin by Mary Henderson Eastman , and The Planter 's Northern Bride by Caroline Lee Hentz , with the last author having been a close personal friend of Stowe 's when the two lived in Cincinnati . Simms ' book was published a few months after Stowe 's novel , and it contains a number of sections and discussions disputing Stowe 's book and her view of slavery . Hentz 's 1854 novel , widely read at the time but now largely forgotten , offers a defense of slavery as seen through the eyes of a northern woman -- the daughter of an abolitionist , no less -- who marries a southern slave owner . In the decade between the publication of Uncle Tom 's Cabin and the start of the American Civil War , between twenty and thirty anti-Tom books were published . Among these novels are two books titled Uncle Tom 's Cabin As It Is ( one by W.L. Smith and the other by C.H. Wiley ) and a book by John Pendleton Kennedy . More than half of these anti-Tom books were written by white women , with Simms commenting at one point about the `` Seemingly poetic justice of having the Northern woman ( Stowe ) answered by a Southern woman . '' Dramatic adaptations George Aiken 's original manuscript for his stage adaptation of Uncle Tom 's Cabin , 1852 . From the George C. Howard and Family Collection at the Harry Ransom Center . Tom shows Main article : Tom show Even though Uncle Tom 's Cabin was the best - selling novel of the 19th century , far more Americans of that time saw the story as a stage play or musical than read the book . Eric Lott , in his book Uncle Tomitudes : Racial Melodrama and Modes of Production , estimates that at least three million people saw these plays , ten times the book 's first - year sales . Given the lax copyright laws of the time , stage plays based on Uncle Tom 's Cabin -- `` Tom shows '' -- began to appear while the novel was still being serialized . Stowe refused to authorize dramatization of her work because of her distrust of drama ( although she did eventually go to see George L. Aiken 's version and , according to Francis Underwood , was `` delighted '' by Caroline Howard 's portrayal of Topsy ) . Aiken 's stage production continued as `` the most popular play in England and America for seventy - five years . '' Stowe 's refusal to authorize a particular dramatic version left the field clear for any number of adaptations , some launched for ( various ) political reasons and others as simply commercial theatrical ventures . No international copyright laws existed at the time . The book and plays were translated into several languages ; Stowe received no money , which could have meant as much as `` three fourths of her just and legitimate wages . '' On the plays All Tom shows appear to have incorporated elements of melodrama and blackface minstrelsy . These plays varied tremendously in their politics -- some faithfully reflected Stowe 's sentimentalized antislavery politics , while others were more moderate , or even pro-slavery . Many of the productions featured demeaning racial caricatures of Black people , while a number of productions also featured songs by Stephen Foster ( including `` My Old Kentucky Home '' , `` Old Folks at Home '' , and `` Massa 's in the Cold Ground '' ) . The best - known Tom Shows were those of George Aiken and H.J. Conway . The version by Aiken is perhaps the best known stage adaptation , released just a few months after the novel was published . This six - act behemoth also set an important precedent by being the first show on Broadway to stand on its own , without the performance of other entertainments or any afterpiece . Most of Aiken 's dialogue is lifted verbatim from Stowe 's novel and it included four full musical numbers written by the producer , George C. Howard . Another legacy of this adaptation is its reliance upon very different locations all portrayed on the same stage . This reliance led to large sets and set a precedent for the future days of film . By focusing on the stark and desperate situations of his characters , Aiken appealed to the emotions of his audiences . By combining this melodramatic approach with the content of Stowe 's novel , Aiken helped to create a powerful visual indictment against the institution of slavery . The many stage variants of Uncle Tom 's Cabin `` dominated northern popular culture ... for several years '' during the 19th century , and the plays were still being performed in the early 20th century . One of the unique and controversial variants of the Tom Shows was Walt Disney 's 1933 Mickey 's Mellerdrammer . Mickey 's Mellerdrammer is a United Artists film released in 1933 . The title is a corruption of `` melodrama '' , thought to harken back to the earliest minstrel shows , as a film short based on a production of Uncle Tom 's Cabin by the Disney characters . In that film , Mickey Mouse and friends stage their own production of Uncle Tom 's Cabin . Mickey Mouse was already black - colored , but the advertising poster for the film shows Mickey dressed in blackface with exaggerated , orange lips ; bushy , white sidewhiskers made out of cotton ; and his trademark white gloves . Film adaptations Main article : Uncle Tom 's Cabin ( film adaptations ) Uncle Tom 's Cabin has been adapted several times as a film . Most of these movies were created during the silent film era ( Uncle Tom 's Cabin was the most - filmed book of that time period ) . Because of the continuing popularity of both the book and `` Tom '' shows , audiences were already familiar with the characters and the plot , making it easier for the film to be understood without spoken words . There has been no Hollywood treatment since the end of the silent era . The first film version of Uncle Tom 's Cabin was one of the earliest full - length movies ( although full - length at that time meant between 10 and 14 minutes ) . This 1903 film , directed by Edwin S. Porter , used white actors in blackface in the major roles and black performers only as extras . This version was evidently similar to many of the `` Tom Shows '' of earlier decades and featured numerous stereotypes about blacks ( such as having the slaves dance in almost any context , including at a slave auction ) . Still from Edwin S. Porter 's 1903 version of Uncle Tom 's Cabin , which was one of the first full - length movies . The still shows Eliza telling Uncle Tom that he has been sold and that she is running away to save her child . In 1910 , a three - reel Vitagraph Company of America production was directed by J. Stuart Blackton and adapted by Eugene Mullin . According to The Dramatic Mirror , this film was `` a decided innovation '' in motion pictures and `` the first time an American company '' released a dramatic film in three reels . Until then , full - length movies of the time were 15 minutes long and contained only one reel of film . The movie starred Florence Turner , Mary Fuller , Edwin R. Phillips , Flora Finch , Genevieve Tobin and Carlyle Blackwell , Sr . At least four more movie adaptations were created in the next two decades . The last silent film version was released in 1927 . Directed by Harry A. Pollard ( who played Uncle Tom in a 1913 release of Uncle Tom 's Cabin ) , this two - hour movie was more than a year in production and was the third most expensive picture of the silent era ( at a cost of $1.8 million ) . The black actor Charles Gilpin was originally cast in the title role , but he was fired after the studio decided his `` portrayal was too aggressive . '' James B. Lowe took over the character of Tom . The screenplay takes many liberties with the original book , including altering the Eliza and George subplot , introducing the Civil War and Emancipation , and combining the characters of Eliza and Emmeline . Another difference occurs after Tom dies : Simon Legree is haunted by an apparitional vision of the late Tom and falls to his death in a futile effort to attack the ghostly image . Black media outlets of the time praised the film , but the studio -- fearful of a backlash from Southern and white film audiences -- ended up cutting out controversial scenes , including the film 's opening sequence at a slave auction ( in which a mother is torn away from her baby ) . The story was adapted by Harvey F. Pollard , Thew and A.P. Younger , with titles by Walter Anthony . It starred James B. Lowe , Virginia Grey , George Siegmann , Margarita Fischer , Mona Ray and Madame Sul - Te - Wan . For several decades after the end of the silent film era , the subject matter of Stowe 's novel was judged too sensitive for further film interpretation . In 1946 , Metro - Goldwyn - Mayer considered filming the story but ceased production after protests led by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People . A movie poster from Kroger Babb 's 1965 production of Uncle Tom 's Cabin A German - language version , Onkel Toms Hütte , directed by Géza von Radványi , was released in 1965 and was presented in the United States by exploitation film presenter Kroger Babb . The most recent film version was a television broadcast in 1987 , directed by Stan Lathan and adapted by John Gay . It starred Avery Brooks , Phylicia Rashad , Edward Woodward , Jenny Lewis , Samuel L. Jackson and Endyia Kinney . In addition to film adaptations , versions of Uncle Tom 's Cabin have been produced in other formats . In Brazil , the adapted version A Cabana do Pai Tomás was produced as a TV soap opera by Rede Globo ; with 205 episodes , it was aired from July 1969 to March 1970 . A number of animated cartoons were produced , including the Bugs Bunny cartoon Southern Fried Rabbit ( 1953 ) , in which Bugs disguises himself as Uncle Tom and sings My Old Kentucky Home in order to cross the Mason - Dixon line ; Uncle Tom 's Bungalow ( 1937 ) , a Warner Brothers cartoon supervised by Tex Avery ; Eliza on Ice ( 1944 ) , one of the earliest Mighty Mouse cartoons produced by Paul Terry ; and Uncle Tom 's Cabaña ( 1947 ) , an eight - minute cartoon directed by Tex Avery . Uncle Tom 's Cabin has influenced numerous movies , including The Birth of a Nation . This controversial 1915 film set the dramatic climax in a slave cabin similar to that of Uncle Tom , where several white Southerners unite with their former enemy ( Yankee soldiers ) to defend , according to the film 's caption , their `` Aryan birthright . '' According to scholars , this reuse of such a familiar image of a slave cabin would have resonated with , and been understood by , audiences of the time . Other movies influenced by or making use of Uncle Tom 's Cabin include Dimples ( a 1936 Shirley Temple film ) , Uncle Tom 's Uncle , ( a 1926 Our Gang episode ) , its 1932 remake Spanky , the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical The King and I ( in which a ballet called `` Small House of Uncle Thomas '' is performed in traditional Siamese style ) , and Gangs of New York ( in which Leonardo DiCaprio and Daniel Day - Lewis 's characters attend an imagined wartime adaptation of Uncle Tom 's Cabin ) . See also Twelve Years a Slave ( 1853 ) , bestselling narrative of free negro Solomon Northup published soon after Uncle Tom 's Cabin ( 1852 ) , which documents facts supporting Stowe 's fictional narrative in detail , as the area where Northup was enslaved was close to the fictional setting of the plantation where much of Stowe 's narrative takes place .

These drivers are noted on the entry list for that race . A driver is considered to have started a race if they line up on the grid or at the pitlane exit for the start of a race . If a race is stopped and restarted , participation in any portion of the race is counted , but only if that portion was in any way counted towards the final classification ( e.g. , most races stopped before the end of the leader 's 2nd lap had the first part declared null and void in the 1990s and early 2000s , but the first part did count if it was run for more than 1 complete lap before the race was stopped ) .

The Roosevelt Corollary was an addition to the Monroe Doctrine articulated by President Theodore Roosevelt in his State of the Union address in 1904 after the Venezuela Crisis of 1902 -- 03 . The corollary states that the United States will intervene in conflicts between European countries and Latin American countries to enforce legitimate claims of the European powers , rather than having the Europeans press their claims directly . Roosevelt tied his policy to the Monroe Doctrine , and it was also consistent with his foreign policy included in his Big Stick Diplomacy . Roosevelt stated that in keeping with the Monroe Doctrine , the United States was justified in exercising `` international police power '' to put an end to chronic unrest or wrongdoing in the Western Hemisphere . While the Monroe Doctrine had sought to prevent European intervention , the Roosevelt Corollary was used to justify US intervention throughout the hemisphere . In 1934 , President Franklin D. Roosevelt renounced interventionism and established his Good Neighbor policy for the Western Hemisphere . Contents ( hide ) 1 Use 1.1 Shift to the `` Good Neighbor '' policy 2 Criticism 3 See also 4 References 5 Bibliography Use ( edit ) See also : Overseas interventions of the United States The Roosevelt Corollary was an addition to the Monroe Doctrine ; however , it could be seen as a departure . While the Monroe Doctrine said European countries should stay out of Latin America , the Roosevelt Corollary took this further to say he had the right to exercise military force in Latin American countries to keep European countries out . Historian Walter LaFeber wrote ( Roosevelt ) essentially turns the Monroe Doctrine on its head and toes says the Europeans should stay out , but the United States has the right , under the doctrine , to go in to exercise police power to keep the Europeans out of the way . It is a very nice twist on the Monroe Doctrine , and of course , it becomes very , very important because over the next 15 to 20 years , the United States will move into Latin America about a dozen times with military force , to the point where the United States Marines become known in the area as `` State Department Troops '' because they are always moving in to protect State Department interests and State Department policy in the Caribbean . So what Roosevelt does here , by redefining the Monroe Doctrine , turns out to be very historical , and it leads the United States into a period of confrontation with peoples in the Caribbean and Central America , that was an imperative part of American imperialism . Roosevelt first used the Corollary to act in the Dominican Republic in 1904 , which at the time was severely indebted and becoming a failed state . The United States dispatched two warships and demanded the customs house be turned over to U.S. negotiators , who then used a percentage of the proceeds to pay foreign creditors . This model -- in which United States advisors worked to stabilize Latin American nations through temporary protectorates , staving off European action -- became known as `` dollar diplomacy '' . The Dominican experiment , like most other `` dollar diplomacy '' arrangements , proved temporary and untenable , and the United States launched a larger military intervention in 1912 . U.S. Presidents also cited the Roosevelt Corollary as justification for U.S. intervention in Cuba ( 1906 -- 1909 ) , Nicaragua ( 1909 -- 1910 , 1912 -- 1925 and 1926 -- 1933 ) , Haiti ( 1915 -- 1934 ) , and the Dominican Republic ( 1916 -- 1924 ) . Shift to the `` Good Neighbor '' policy ( edit ) Main article : Good Neighbor policy In 1928 , under President Calvin Coolidge , the Clark Memorandum -- often seen as a partial repudiation of the Roosevelt Corollary -- stated that the U.S. did not have the right to intervene when there was a threat by European powers . Herbert Hoover also helped move the U.S. away from the imperialist tendencies of the Roosevelt Corollary by going on good - will tours , withdrawing troops from Nicaragua and Haiti , and abstaining from intervening in the internal affairs of neighboring countries . In 1934 , Franklin D. Roosevelt further renounced interventionism and established his `` Good Neighbor policy '' that led to the annulment of the Platt Amendment by the Treaty of Relations with Cuba in 1934 , and the negotiation of compensation for Mexico 's nationalization of foreign - owned oil assets in 1938 . Indeed , leaving unchallenged the emergence of dictatorships like that of Fulgencio Batista in Cuba , Rafael Leonidas Trujillo in the Dominican Republic , Anastasio Somoza in Nicaragua , and François Duvalier in Haiti were each considered to be `` Frankenstein dictators '' due to the mishandlings of the American occupations in the countries . The era of the Good Neighbor Policy ended with the ramp - up of the Cold War in 1945 , as the United States felt there was a greater need to protect the western hemisphere from Soviet influence . In 1954 , Secretary of State John Foster Dulles invoked the Monroe Doctrine and the Roosevelt Corollary at the Tenth Pan-American Conference in Caracas , denouncing the intervention of Soviet Communism in Guatemala . This was used to justify Operation PBSUCCESS that deposed the democratically elected President Jacobo Árbenz and installed the military regime of Carlos Castillo Armas , the first in a series of military dictators in the country . Criticism ( edit ) The argument made by Mitchener and Weidenmier in 2006 in support of the Roosevelt Corollary to the Monroe Doctrine has been criticized on the grounds that it `` represent ( s ) the one - sided approach that some scholars bring to the study of imperialistic and hegemonic interventions and also highlight how arguments for the general utility of imperialism are increasingly made and accepted . '' Christopher Coyne and Stephen Davies argue that a foreign policy modeled on the Roosevelt Corollary leads to negative consequences both in national security terms and in terms of its effect on domestic politics . Critics , such as Noam Chomsky , have argued that the Roosevelt Corollary was merely a more explicit imperialist threat , building on the Monroe Doctrine , indicating that the U.S. would intervene not only in defense of South American states in the face of European imperialism , but would also use its muscle to obtain concessions and privileges for American corporations . Serge Ricard of the University of Paris goes even further , stating that the Roosevelt Corollary was not merely an addendum to the earlier Monroe Doctrine , through which the U.S. pledged to protect the Americas from European imperialist interventions . Rather , the Roosevelt Corollary was `` an entirely new diplomatic tenet that epitomized his ' big stick ' approach to foreign policy . '' In other words , while the Monroe Doctrine sought to bar entry to the European empires , the Roosevelt Corollary announced the United States intention to take their place .

Earth 's magnetic field - wikipedia Earth 's magnetic field Jump to : navigation , search Computer simulation of the Earth 's field in a period of normal polarity between reversals . The lines represent magnetic field lines , blue when the field points towards the center and yellow when away . The rotation axis of the Earth is centered and vertical . The dense clusters of lines are within the Earth 's core . Earth 's magnetic field , is also known as the geomagnetic field , is the magnetic field that extends from the Earth 's interior out into space , where it meets the solar wind , a stream of charged particles emanating from the Sun . Its magnitude at the Earth 's surface ranges from 25 to 65 microteslas ( 0.25 to 0.65 gauss ) . Roughly speaking it is the field of a magnetic dipole currently tilted at an angle of about 11 degrees with respect to Earth 's rotational axis , as if there were a bar magnet placed at that angle at the center of the Earth . The North geomagnetic pole , located near Greenland in the northern hemisphere , is actually the south pole of the Earth 's magnetic field , and the South geomagnetic pole is the north pole . The magnetic field is generated by electric currents due to the motion of convection currents of molten iron in the Earth 's outer core driven by heat escaping from the core , a natural process called a geodynamo . While the North and South magnetic poles are usually located near the geographic poles , they can wander widely over geological time scales , but sufficiently slowly for ordinary compasses to remain useful for navigation . However , at irregular intervals averaging several hundred thousand years , the Earth 's field reverses and the North and South Magnetic Poles relatively abruptly switch places . These reversals of the geomagnetic poles leave a record in rocks that are of value to paleomagnetists in calculating geomagnetic fields in the past . Such information in turn is helpful in studying the motions of continents and ocean floors in the process of plate tectonics . The magnetosphere is the region above the ionosphere that is defined by the extent of the Earth 's magnetic field in space . It extends several tens of thousands of kilometers into space , protecting the Earth from the charged particles of the solar wind and cosmic rays that would otherwise strip away the upper atmosphere , including the ozone layer that protects the Earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation .

One stripping mechanism is for gas to be caught in bubbles of magnetic field , which are ripped off by solar winds . Calculations of the loss of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere of Mars , resulting from scavenging of ions by the solar wind , indicate that the dissipation of the magnetic field of Mars caused a near total loss of its atmosphere . The study of past magnetic field of the Earth is known as paleomagnetism . The polarity of the Earth 's magnetic field is recorded in igneous rocks , and reversals of the field are thus detectable as `` stripes '' centered on mid-ocean ridges where the sea floor is spreading , while the stability of the geomagnetic poles between reversals has allowed paleomagnetists to track the past motion of continents . Reversals also provide the basis for magnetostratigraphy , a way of dating rocks and sediments . The field also magnetizes the crust , and magnetic anomalies can be used to search for deposits of metal ores . Humans have used compasses for direction finding since the 11th century A.D. and for navigation since the 12th century . Although the magnetic declination does shift with time , this wandering is slow enough that a simple compass remains useful for navigation . Using magnetoception various other organisms , ranging from some types of bacteria to pigeons , use the Earth 's magnetic field for orientation and navigation . Main characteristics ( edit ) Description ( edit ) At any location , the Earth 's magnetic field can be represented by a three - dimensional vector . A typical procedure for measuring its direction is to use a compass to determine the direction of magnetic North . Its angle relative to true North is the declination ( D ) or variation . Facing magnetic North , the angle the field makes with the horizontal is the inclination ( I ) or magnetic dip . The intensity ( F ) of the field is proportional to the force it exerts on a magnet . Another common representation is in X ( North ) , Y ( East ) and Z ( Down ) coordinates . Common coordinate systems used for representing the Earth 's magnetic field . Intensity ( edit ) The intensity of the field is often measured in gauss ( G ) , but is generally reported in nanoteslas ( nT ) , with 1 G = 100,000 nT . A nanotesla is also referred to as a gamma ( γ ) . The tesla is the SI unit of the magnetic field , B . The Earth 's field ranges between approximately 25,000 and 65,000 nT ( 0.25 -- 0.65 G ) . By comparison , a strong refrigerator magnet has a field of about 10,000,000 nanoteslas ( 100 G ) . A map of intensity contours is called an isodynamic chart . As the World Magnetic Model shows , the intensity tends to decrease from the poles to the equator . A minimum intensity occurs in the South Atlantic Anomaly over South America while there are maxima over northern Canada , Siberia , and the coast of Antarctica south of Australia . Inclination ( edit ) Main article : Magnetic dip The inclination is given by an angle that can assume values between - 90 ° ( up ) to 90 ° ( down ) . In the northern hemisphere , the field points downwards . It is straight down at the North Magnetic Pole and rotates upwards as the latitude decreases until it is horizontal ( 0 ° ) at the magnetic equator . It continues to rotate upwards until it is straight up at the South Magnetic Pole . Inclination can be measured with a dip circle . An isoclinic chart ( map of inclination contours ) for the Earth 's magnetic field is shown below . Declination ( edit ) Main article : Magnetic declination Declination is positive for an eastward deviation of the field relative to true north . It can be estimated by comparing the magnetic north / south heading on a compass with the direction of a celestial pole . Maps typically include information on the declination as an angle or a small diagram showing the relationship between magnetic north and true north . Information on declination for a region can be represented by a chart with isogonic lines ( contour lines with each line representing a fixed declination ) . Geographical variation ( edit ) Components of the Earth 's magnetic field at the surface from the World Magnetic Model for 2015 . Intensity Inclination Declination Dipolar approximation ( edit ) The variation between magnetic north ( N ) and `` true '' north ( N ) . See also : Dipole model of the Earth 's magnetic field Near the surface of the Earth , its magnetic field can be closely approximated by the field of a magnetic dipole positioned at the center of the Earth and tilted at an angle of about 11 ° with respect to the rotational axis of the Earth . The dipole is roughly equivalent to a powerful bar magnet , with its south pole pointing towards the geomagnetic North Pole . This may seem surprising , but the north pole of a magnet is so defined because , if allowed to rotate freely , it points roughly northward ( in the geographic sense ) . Since the north pole of a magnet attracts the south poles of other magnets and repels the north poles , it must be attracted to the south pole of Earth 's magnet . The dipolar field accounts for 80 -- 90 % of the field in most locations . Magnetic poles ( edit ) Main article : Geomagnetic pole The movement of Earth 's North Magnetic Pole across the Canadian arctic . Historically , the north and south poles of a magnet were first defined by the Earth 's magnetic field , not vice versa , since one of the first uses for a magnet was as a compass needle . Its North pole was defined as the pole that would be attracted by the Earth 's North Magnetic Pole when the magnet was suspended so it could turn freely . Since opposite poles attract , the North Magnetic Pole of the Earth is really the south pole of its magnetic field ( the place where the field is directed downward into the Earth ) . The positions of the magnetic poles can be defined in at least two ways : locally or globally . The local definition is the point where the magnetic field is vertical . This can be determined by measuring the inclination . The inclination of the Earth 's field is 90 ° ( downwards ) at the North Magnetic Pole and - 90 ° ( upwards ) at the South Magnetic Pole . The two poles wander independently of each other and are not directly opposite each other on the globe . They can migrate rapidly : movements of up to 40 kilometres ( 25 mi ) per year have been observed for the North Magnetic Pole . Over the last 180 years , the North Magnetic Pole has been migrating northwestward , from Cape Adelaide in the Boothia Peninsula in 1831 to 600 kilometres ( 370 mi ) from Resolute Bay in 2001 . The magnetic equator is the line where the inclination is zero ( the magnetic field is horizontal ) . The global definition of the Earth 's field is based on a mathematical model . If a line is drawn through the center of the Earth , parallel to the moment of the best - fitting magnetic dipole , the two positions where it intersects the Earth 's surface are called the North and South geomagnetic poles . If the Earth 's magnetic field were perfectly dipolar , the geomagnetic poles and magnetic dip poles would coincide and compasses would point towards them . However , the Earth 's field has a significant non-dipolar contribution , so the poles do not coincide and compasses do not generally point at either . Magnetosphere ( edit ) An artist 's rendering of the structure of a magnetosphere. 1 ) Bow shock . 2 ) Magnetosheath. 3 ) Magnetopause. 4 ) Magnetosphere. 5 ) Northern tail lobe. 6 ) Southern tail lobe. 7 ) Plasmasphere . Main article : Magnetosphere Earth 's magnetic field , predominantly dipolar at its surface , is distorted further out by the solar wind . This is a stream of charged particles leaving the Sun 's corona and accelerating to a speed of 200 to 1000 kilometres per second . They carry with them a magnetic field , the interplanetary magnetic field ( IMF ) . The solar wind exerts a pressure , and if it could reach Earth 's atmosphere it would erode it . However , it is kept away by the pressure of the Earth 's magnetic field . The magnetopause , the area where the pressures balance , is the boundary of the magnetosphere . Despite its name , the magnetosphere is asymmetric , with the sunward side being about 10 Earth radii out but the other side stretching out in a magnetotail that extends beyond 200 Earth radii . Sunward of the magnetopause is the bow shock , the area where the solar wind slows abruptly . Inside the magnetosphere is the plasmasphere , a donut - shaped region containing low - energy charged particles , or plasma . This region begins at a height of 60 km , extends up to 3 or 4 Earth radii , and includes the ionosphere . This region rotates with the Earth . There are also two concentric tire - shaped regions , called the Van Allen radiation belts , with high - energy ions ( energies from 0.1 to 10 million electron volts ( MeV ) ) . The inner belt is 1 -- 2 Earth radii out while the outer belt is at 4 -- 7 Earth radii . The plasmasphere and Van Allen belts have partial overlap , with the extent of overlap varying greatly with solar activity . As well as deflecting the solar wind , the Earth 's magnetic field deflects cosmic rays , high - energy charged particles that are mostly from outside the Solar system . ( Many cosmic rays are kept out of the Solar system by the Sun 's magnetosphere , or heliosphere . ) By contrast , astronauts on the Moon risk exposure to radiation . Anyone who had been on the Moon 's surface during a particularly violent solar eruption in 2005 would have received a lethal dose . Some of the charged particles do get into the magnetosphere . These spiral around field lines , bouncing back and forth between the poles several times per second . In addition , positive ions slowly drift westward and negative ions drift eastward , giving rise to a ring current . This current reduces the magnetic field at the Earth 's surface . Particles that penetrate the ionosphere and collide with the atoms there give rise to the lights of the aurorae and also emit X-rays . The varying conditions in the magnetosphere , known as space weather , are largely driven by solar activity . If the solar wind is weak , the magnetosphere expands ; while if it is strong , it compresses the magnetosphere and more of it gets in . Periods of particularly intense activity , called geomagnetic storms , can occur when a coronal mass ejection erupts above the Sun and sends a shock wave through the Solar System . Such a wave can take just two days to reach the Earth . Geomagnetic storms can cause a lot of disruption ; the `` Halloween '' storm of 2003 damaged more than a third of NASA 's satellites . The largest documented storm occurred in 1859 . It induced currents strong enough to short out telegraph lines , and aurorae were reported as far south as Hawaii . Time dependence ( edit ) Short - term variations ( edit ) Background : a set of traces from magnetic observatories showing a magnetic storm in 2000 . Globe : map showing locations of observatories and contour lines giving horizontal magnetic intensity in μ T . The geomagnetic field changes on time scales from milliseconds to millions of years . Shorter time scales mostly arise from currents in the ionosphere ( ionospheric dynamo region ) and magnetosphere , and some changes can be traced to geomagnetic storms or daily variations in currents . Changes over time scales of a year or more mostly reflect changes in the Earth 's interior , particularly the iron - rich core . Frequently , the Earth 's magnetosphere is hit by solar flares causing geomagnetic storms , provoking displays of aurorae . The short - term instability of the magnetic field is measured with the K - index . Data from THEMIS show that the magnetic field , which interacts with the solar wind , is reduced when the magnetic orientation is aligned between Sun and Earth -- opposite to the previous hypothesis . During forthcoming solar storms , this could result in blackouts and disruptions in artificial satellites . Secular variation ( edit ) Main article : Geomagnetic secular variation Estimated declination contours by year , 1590 to 1990 ( click to see variation ) . Strength of the axial dipole component of Earth 's magnetic field from 1600 to 2020 . Changes in Earth 's magnetic field on a time scale of a year or more are referred to as secular variation . Over hundreds of years , magnetic declination is observed to vary over tens of degrees . A movie on the right shows how global declinations have changed over the last few centuries . The direction and intensity of the dipole change over time . Over the last two centuries the dipole strength has been decreasing at a rate of about 6.3 % per century . At this rate of decrease , the field would be negligible in about 1600 years . However , this strength is about average for the last 7 thousand years , and the current rate of change is not unusual . A prominent feature in the non-dipolar part of the secular variation is a westward drift at a rate of about 0.2 degrees per year . This drift is not the same everywhere and has varied over time . The globally averaged drift has been westward since about 1400 AD but eastward between about 1000 AD and 1400 AD . Changes that predate magnetic observatories are recorded in archaeological and geological materials . Such changes are referred to as paleomagnetic secular variation or paleosecular variation ( PSV ) . The records typically include long periods of small change with occasional large changes reflecting geomagnetic excursions and reversals . Magnetic field reversals ( edit ) Geomagnetic polarity during the late Cenozoic Era . Dark areas denote periods where the polarity matches today 's polarity , light areas denote periods where that polarity is reversed . Main article : Geomagnetic reversal Although generally Earth 's field is approximately dipolar , with an axis that is nearly aligned with the rotational axis , occasionally the North and South geomagnetic poles trade places . Evidence for these geomagnetic reversals can be found in basalts , sediment cores taken from the ocean floors , and seafloor magnetic anomalies . Reversals occur nearly randomly in time , with intervals between reversals ranging from less than 0.1 million years to as much as 50 million years . The most recent geomagnetic reversal , called the Brunhes -- Matuyama reversal , occurred about 780,000 years ago . A related phenomenon , a geomagnetic excursion , amounts to an incomplete reversal , with no change in polarity . The Laschamp event is an example of an excursion , it having occurred during the last ice age ( 41,000 years ago ) . The past magnetic field is recorded mostly by strongly magnetic minerals , particularly iron oxides such as magnetite , that can carry a permanent magnetic moment . This remanent magnetization , or remanence , can be acquired in more than one way . In lava flows , the direction of the field is `` frozen '' in small minerals as they cool , giving rise to a thermoremanent magnetization . In sediments , the orientation of magnetic particles acquires a slight bias towards the magnetic field as they are deposited on an ocean floor or lake bottom . This is called detrital remanent magnetization . Thermoremanent magnetization is the main source of the magnetic anomalies around mid-ocean ridges . As the seafloor spreads , magma wells up from the mantle , cools to form new basaltic crust on both sides of the ridge , and is carried away from it by seafloor spreading . As it cools , it records the direction of the Earth 's field . When the Earth 's field reverses , new basalt records the reversed direction . The result is a series of stripes that are symmetric about the ridge . A ship towing a magnetometer on the surface of the ocean can detect these stripes and infer the age of the ocean floor below . This provides information on the rate at which seafloor has spread in the past . Radiometric dating of lava flows has been used to establish a geomagnetic polarity time scale , part of which is shown in the image . This forms the basis of magnetostratigraphy , a geophysical correlation technique that can be used to date both sedimentary and volcanic sequences as well as the seafloor magnetic anomalies . Studies of lava flows on Steens Mountain , Oregon , indicate that the magnetic field could have shifted at a rate of up to 6 degrees per day at some time in Earth 's history , which significantly challenges the popular understanding of how the Earth 's magnetic field works . This finding was later attributed to unusual rock magnetic properties of the lava flow under study , not rapid field change , by one of the original authors of the 1995 study . Temporary dipole tilt variations that take the dipole axis across the equator and then back to the original polarity are known as excursions . Earliest appearance ( edit ) Paleomagnetic studies of Paleoarchean lava in Australia and conglomerate in South Africa have concluded that the magnetic field has been present since at least about 3,450 million years ago . Future ( edit ) Variations in virtual axial dipole moment since the last reversal . At present , the overall geomagnetic field is becoming weaker ; the present strong deterioration corresponds to a 10 -- 15 % decline over the last 150 years and has accelerated in the past several years ; geomagnetic intensity has declined almost continuously from a maximum 35 % above the modern value achieved approximately 2,000 years ago . The rate of decrease and the current strength are within the normal range of variation , as shown by the record of past magnetic fields recorded in rocks . The nature of Earth 's magnetic field is one of heteroscedastic fluctuation . An instantaneous measurement of it , or several measurements of it across the span of decades or centuries , are not sufficient to extrapolate an overall trend in the field strength . It has gone up and down in the past for unknown reasons . Also , noting the local intensity of the dipole field ( or its fluctuation ) is insufficient to characterize Earth 's magnetic field as a whole , as it is not strictly a dipole field . The dipole component of Earth 's field can diminish even while the total magnetic field remains the same or increases . The Earth 's magnetic north pole is drifting from northern Canada towards Siberia with a presently accelerating rate -- 10 kilometres ( 6.2 mi ) per year at the beginning of the 20th century , up to 40 kilometres ( 25 mi ) per year in 2003 , and since then has only accelerated . Physical origin ( edit ) Main article : Dynamo theory The Earth 's magnetic field is believed to be generated by electric currents in the conductive material of its core , created by convection currents due to heat escaping from the core . However the process is complex , and computer models that reproduce some of its features have only been developed in the last few decades . Earth 's core and the geodynamo ( edit ) A schematic illustrating the relationship between motion of conducting fluid , organized into rolls by the Coriolis force , and the magnetic field the motion generates . The Earth and most of the planets in the Solar System , as well as the Sun and other stars , all generate magnetic fields through the motion of electrically conducting fluids . The Earth 's field originates in its core . This is a region of iron alloys extending to about 3400 km ( the radius of the Earth is 6370 km ) . It is divided into a solid inner core , with a radius of 1220 km , and a liquid outer core . The motion of the liquid in the outer core is driven by heat flow from the inner core , which is about 6,000 K ( 5,730 ° C ; 10,340 ° F ) , to the core - mantle boundary , which is about 3,800 K ( 3,530 ° C ; 6,380 ° F ) . The pattern of flow is organized by the rotation of the Earth and the presence of the solid inner core . The mechanism by which the Earth generates a magnetic field is known as a dynamo . The magnetic field is generated by a feedback loop : current loops generate magnetic fields ( Ampère 's circuital law ) ; a changing magnetic field generates an electric field ( Faraday 's law ) ; and the electric and magnetic fields exert a force on the charges that are flowing in currents ( the Lorentz force ) . These effects can be combined in a partial differential equation for the magnetic field called the magnetic induction equation : ∂ B ∂ t = η ∇ 2 B + ∇ × ( u × B ) ( \ displaystyle ( \ frac ( \ partial \ mathbf ( B ) ) ( \ partial t ) ) = \ eta \ nabla ^ ( 2 ) \ mathbf ( B ) + \ nabla \ times ( \ mathbf ( u ) \ times \ mathbf ( B ) ) ) ... where u is the velocity of the fluid ; B is the magnetic B - field ; and η = 1 / σμ is the magnetic diffusivity , which is inversely proportional to the product of the electrical conductivity σ and the permeability μ . The term ∂ B / ∂ t is the time derivative of the field ; ∇ is the Laplace operator and ∇ × is the curl operator . The first term on the right hand side of the induction equation is a diffusion term . In a stationary fluid , the magnetic field declines and any concentrations of field spread out . If the Earth 's dynamo shut off , the dipole part would disappear in a few tens of thousands of years . In a perfect conductor ( σ = ∞ ( \ displaystyle \ sigma = \ infty \ ; ) ) , there would be no diffusion . By Lenz 's law , any change in the magnetic field would be immediately opposed by currents , so the flux through a given volume of fluid could not change . As the fluid moved , the magnetic field would go with it . The theorem describing this effect is called the frozen - in - field theorem . Even in a fluid with a finite conductivity , new field is generated by stretching field lines as the fluid moves in ways that deform it . This process could go on generating new field indefinitely , were it not that as the magnetic field increases in strength , it resists fluid motion . The motion of the fluid is sustained by convection , motion driven by buoyancy . The temperature increases towards the center of the Earth , and the higher temperature of the fluid lower down makes it buoyant . This buoyancy is enhanced by chemical separation : As the core cools , some of the molten iron solidifies and is plated to the inner core . In the process , lighter elements are left behind in the fluid , making it lighter . This is called compositional convection . A Coriolis effect , caused by the overall planetary rotation , tends to organize the flow into rolls aligned along the north - south polar axis . A dynamo can amplify a magnetic field , but it needs a `` seed '' field to get it started . For the Earth , this could have been an external magnetic field . Early in its history the Sun went through a T - Tauri phase in which the solar wind would have had a magnetic field orders of magnitude larger than the present solar wind . However , much of the field may have been screened out by the Earth 's mantle . An alternative source is currents in the core - mantle boundary driven by chemical reactions or variations in thermal or electric conductivity . Such effects may still provide a small bias that are part of the boundary conditions for the geodynamo . The average magnetic field in the Earth 's outer core was calculated to be 25 gausses , 50 times stronger than the field at the surface . Numerical models ( edit ) Simulating the geodynamo requires numerically solving a set of nonlinear partial differential equations for the magnetohydrodynamics ( MHD ) of the Earth 's interior . Simulation of the MHD equations is performed on a 3D grid of points and the fineness of the grid , which in part determines the realism of the solutions , is limited mainly by computer power . For decades , theorists were confined to creating kinematic dynamo computer models in which the fluid motion is chosen in advance and the effect on the magnetic field calculated . Kinematic dynamo theory was mainly a matter of trying different flow geometries and testing whether such geometries could sustain a dynamo . The first self - consistent dynamo models , ones that determine both the fluid motions and the magnetic field , were developed by two groups in 1995 , one in Japan and one in the United States . The latter received attention because it successfully reproduced some of the characteristics of the Earth 's field , including geomagnetic reversals . Currents in the ionosphere and magnetosphere ( edit ) Electric currents induced in the ionosphere generate magnetic fields ( ionospheric dynamo region ) . Such a field is always generated near where the atmosphere is closest to the Sun , causing daily alterations that can deflect surface magnetic fields by as much as one degree . Typical daily variations of field strength are about 25 nanoteslas ( nT ) ( one part in 2000 ) , with variations over a few seconds of typically around 1 nT ( one part in 50,000 ) . Measurement and analysis ( edit ) Detection ( edit ) The Earth 's magnetic field strength was measured by Carl Friedrich Gauss in 1832 and has been repeatedly measured since then , showing a relative decay of about 10 % over the last 150 years . The Magsat satellite and later satellites have used 3 - axis vector magnetometers to probe the 3 - D structure of the Earth 's magnetic field . The later Ørsted satellite allowed a comparison indicating a dynamic geodynamo in action that appears to be giving rise to an alternate pole under the Atlantic Ocean west of S. Africa . Governments sometimes operate units that specialize in measurement of the Earth 's magnetic field . These are geomagnetic observatories , typically part of a national Geological survey , for example the British Geological Survey 's Eskdalemuir Observatory . Such observatories can measure and forecast magnetic conditions such as magnetic storms that sometimes affect communications , electric power , and other human activities . The International Real - time Magnetic Observatory Network , with over 100 interlinked geomagnetic observatories around the world has been recording the earths magnetic field since 1991 . The military determines local geomagnetic field characteristics , in order to detect anomalies in the natural background that might be caused by a significant metallic object such as a submerged submarine . Typically , these magnetic anomaly detectors are flown in aircraft like the UK 's Nimrod or towed as an instrument or an array of instruments from surface ships . Commercially , geophysical prospecting companies also use magnetic detectors to identify naturally occurring anomalies from ore bodies , such as the Kursk Magnetic Anomaly . Crustal magnetic anomalies ( edit ) A model of short - wavelength features of Earth 's magnetic field , attributed to lithospheric anomalies . Magnetometers detect minute deviations in the Earth 's magnetic field caused by iron artifacts , kilns , some types of stone structures , and even ditches and middens in archaeological geophysics . Using magnetic instruments adapted from airborne magnetic anomaly detectors developed during World War II to detect submarines , the magnetic variations across the ocean floor have been mapped . Basalt -- the iron - rich , volcanic rock making up the ocean floor -- contains a strongly magnetic mineral ( magnetite ) and can locally distort compass readings . The distortion was recognized by Icelandic mariners as early as the late 18th century . More important , because the presence of magnetite gives the basalt measurable magnetic properties , these magnetic variations have provided another means to study the deep ocean floor . When newly formed rock cools , such magnetic materials record the Earth 's magnetic field . Statistical models ( edit ) Each measurement of the magnetic field is at a particular place and time . If an accurate estimate of the field at some other place and time is needed , the measurements must be converted to a model and the model used to make predictions . Spherical harmonics ( edit ) See also : Multipole expansion Schematic representation of spherical harmonics on a sphere and their nodal lines . P is equal to 0 along m great circles passing through the poles , and along l - m circles of equal latitude . The function changes sign each ltime it crosses one of these lines . Example of a quadrupole field . This can also be constructed by moving two dipoles together . The most common way of analyzing the global variations in the Earth 's magnetic field is to fit the measurements to a set of spherical harmonics . This was first done by Carl Friedrich Gauss . Spherical harmonics are functions that oscillate over the surface of a sphere . They are the product of two functions , one that depends on latitude and one on longitude . The function of longitude is zero along zero or more great circles passing through the North and South Poles ; the number of such nodal lines is the absolute value of the order m . The function of latitude is zero along zero or more latitude circles ; this plus the order is equal to the degree l . Each harmonic is equivalent to a particular arrangement of magnetic charges at the center of the Earth . A monopole is an isolated magnetic charge , which has never been observed . A dipole is equivalent to two opposing charges brought close together and a quadrupole to two dipoles brought together . A quadrupole field is shown in the lower figure on the right . Spherical harmonics can represent any scalar field ( function of position ) that satisfies certain properties . A magnetic field is a vector field , but if it is expressed in Cartesian components X , Y , Z , each component is the derivative of the same scalar function called the magnetic potential . Analyses of the Earth 's magnetic field use a modified version of the usual spherical harmonics that differ by a multiplicative factor . A least - squares fit to the magnetic field measurements gives the Earth 's field as the sum of spherical harmonics , each multiplied by the best - fitting Gauss coefficient g or h . The lowest - degree Gauss coefficient , g , gives the contribution of an isolated magnetic charge , so it is zero . The next three coefficients -- g , g , and h -- determine the direction and magnitude of the dipole contribution . The best fitting dipole is tilted at an angle of about 10 ° with respect to the rotational axis , as described earlier . Radial dependence ( edit ) Spherical harmonic analysis can be used to distinguish internal from external sources if measurements are available at more than one height ( for example , ground observatories and satellites ) . In that case , each term with coefficient g or h can be split into two terms : one that decreases with radius as 1 / r and one that increases with radius as r . The increasing terms fit the external sources ( currents in the ionosphere and magnetosphere ) . However , averaged over a few years the external contributions average to zero . The remaining terms predict that the potential of a dipole source ( l = 1 ) drops off as 1 / r . The magnetic field , being a derivative of the potential , drops off as 1 / r . Quadrupole terms drop off as 1 / r , and higher order terms drop off increasingly rapidly with the radius . The radius of the outer core is about half of the radius of the Earth . If the field at the core - mantle boundary is fit to spherical harmonics , the dipole part is smaller by a factor of about 8 at the surface , the quadrupole part by a factor of 16 , and so on . Thus , only the components with large wavelengths can be noticeable at the surface . From a variety of arguments , it is usually assumed that only terms up to degree 14 or less have their origin in the core . These have wavelengths of about 2,000 kilometres ( 1,200 mi ) or less . Smaller features are attributed to crustal anomalies . Global models ( edit ) The International Association of Geomagnetism and Aeronomy maintains a standard global field model called the International Geomagnetic Reference Field . It is updated every 5 years . The 11th - generation model , IGRF11 , was developed using data from satellites ( Ørsted , CHAMP and SAC - C ) and a world network of geomagnetic observatories . The spherical harmonic expansion was truncated at degree 10 , with 120 coefficients , until 2000 . Subsequent models are truncated at degree 13 ( 195 coefficients ) . Another global field model , called the World Magnetic Model , is produced jointly by the United States National Centers for Environmental Information ( formerly the National Geophysical Data Center ) and the British Geological Survey . This model truncates at degree 12 ( 168 coefficients ) with an approximate spatial resolution of 3,000 kilometers . It is the model used by the United States Department of Defense , the Ministry of Defence ( United Kingdom ) , the United States Federal Aviation Administration ( FAA ) , the North Atlantic Treaty Organization ( NATO ) , and the International Hydrographic Office as well as in many civilian navigation systems . A third model , produced by the Goddard Space Flight Center ( NASA and GSFC ) and the Danish Space Research Institute , uses a `` comprehensive modeling '' approach that attempts to reconcile data with greatly varying temporal and spatial resolution from ground and satellite sources . For users with higher accuracy needs , the United States National Centers for Environmental Information developed the Enhanced Magnetic Model ( EMM ) , which extends to degree and order 720 and resolves magnetic anomalies down to a wavelength of 56 kilometers . It was compiled from satellite , marine , aeromagnetic and ground magnetic surveys . The latest version , EMM2015 , includes data from The European Space Agency 's Swarm satellite mission . Biomagnetism ( edit ) Main article : Magnetoception Animals including birds and turtles can detect the Earth 's magnetic field , and use the field to navigate during migration . Some researchers have found that cows and wild deer tend to align their bodies north - south while relaxing , but not when the animals are under high - voltage power lines , suggesting that magnetism is responsible . Other researchers reported in 2011 that they could not replicate those findings using different Google Earth images . Researchers found out that very weak electromagnetic fields disrupt the magnetic compass used by European robins and other songbirds to navigate using the Earth 's magnetic field . Neither power lines nor cellphone signals are to blame for the electromagnetic field effect on the birds , according to the new study published in the 8 May 2014 edition of the journal Nature . Instead , the culprits consist of frequencies between 2 kHz and 5 MHz , such as AM radio signals and ordinary electronic equipment that might be found in businesses or private homes .

Renaming of cities in India - Wikipedia Renaming of cities in India Jump to : navigation , search The renaming of cities in India started in 1947 following the end of the British imperial period . Several changes were politically controversial , and not all proposed changes were implemented . Each had to be approved by the central government in New Delhi . The renaming of states and territories in India has also taken place , but until recently with actual substantial name changes in both local language and in English such as the old British state name of Travancore - Cochin to Kerala ( 1956 ) . The most notable recent exceptions are Indian English spelling - changes of Orissa to Odisha ( March 2011 ) and the Union Territory of Pondicherry ( which includes the City of Pondicherry ) to Puducherry . Contents ( hide ) 1 Renaming in local languages 2 Renaming in English 2.1 Change in official English spelling 2.2 Realignment of the official Indian English name to an alternative local name 2.3 Adoption of name changes in India and overseas 3 Important examples 3.1 States 3.2 Cities 4 Proposed changes 4.1 States and Union territories 4.2 Towns 5 Need for unification of spelling 6 See also 7 References 8 External links Renaming in local languages ( edit ) In the post-colonial era , several Indian states ' names were changed . Some of these changes coincided with the States Reorganisation Act of 1956 , a major reform of the boundaries of India 's states and territories that organised them along linguistic lines . At this time , for example , Travancore - Cochin was renamed Kerala . Later state name changes include the reorganisation of Madhya Bharat into Madhya Pradesh in 1959 ; and the renamings of the Madras State to Tamil Nadu in 1969 , of the Mysore State to Karnataka in 1973 , and of Uttaranchal to Uttarakhand in 2007 . Name changes have varied with respect to the levels of language at which they have been applied , and also accepted . Some of these local name changes were changes made in all languages : the immediate local name , and also all India 's other languages . An example of this is the renaming of predominantly Hindi - speaking Uttaranchal ( Hindi : उत्तराञ्चल ) to a new local Hindi name ( Hindi : उत्तराखण्ड Uttarakhand ) . Other changes were only changes in some of the indigenous languages . For example , the renaming of the Madras Presidency to Madras State in 1947 and then Tamil Nadu in 1969 required non-Tamil speakers to change from an approximation of the British name ( Tamil : மதராஸ் மாகாணம் Madras Presidency , then Madras State Tamil : மதராஸ் மாநிலம் ) to a native Tamil name ( Tamil : தமிழ்நாடு Tamil Nadu , `` Tamil land '' ) . In general , changes to the local names of cities in the indigenous languages are less common . However , a change in English may sometimes also be a reflection of changes in other Indian languages other than the specific local one . For example , the change of Madras ( Tamil : மதராஸ் Madras ) to Chennai ( Tamil : சென்னை Chennai ) was reflected in many of India 's languages , and incidentally in English , while the Tamil endonym had always been Chennai and remained unaffected by the change . Renaming in English ( edit ) Change in official English spelling ( edit ) The renaming of cities is often specifically from English to Indian English in connection with that dialect 's internal reforms . In other words , the city itself is not actually renamed in the local language , and the local name ( or endonym ) in the indigenous languages of India does not change , but the official spelling in Indian English is amended . An example is the change from English `` Calcutta '' to English `` Kolkata '' -- the local Bengali name ( কলকাতা Kôlkata ) did not change . Such changes in English spelling may be in order to better reflect a more accurate phonetic transliteration of the local name , or may be for other reasons . In the early years after Indian independence , many name changes were effected in northern India for English spellings of Hindi place names that had simply been romanised inconsistently by the British administration -- such as the British spelling `` Jubbulpore , '' renamed `` Jabalpur '' ( जबलपुर ) among the first changes in 1947 . These changes did not generate significant controversy . More recent and high - profile changes -- including renaming such major cities as Calcutta to Kolkata -- have generated greater controversy . Since independence , such changes have typically been enacted officially by legislation at local or national Indian government level , and may or may not then be adopted by the Indian media , particularly the influential Indian press . In the case of smaller towns and districts which were less notable outside and inside India , and where a well known English name ( or exonym ) could not be said to exist , older spellings used under British India may not have had any specific legislation other than changes in practice on the romanisation of indigenous Indian language names . Realignment of the official Indian English name to an alternative local name ( edit ) Aside from changes to the official English spellings of local names there have also been renaming proposals to realign the official name , hence the English name with an alternative local name . Ethnically sensitive examples include the proposals by the Bharatiya Janata Party ( 1990 , 2001 ) to rename Ahmedabad to Karnavati and Allahabad to Prayag . These two proposals are changes from the Muslim ( or Mughal ) name to a Hindu native name . These can be represented as a change from Urdu language to Hindi language , but since the two languages are variants of Hindustani the proposal is effectively a cultural and ethno - religious proposal rather than a linguistic one . Adoption of name changes in India and overseas ( edit ) Official name changes naturally take place quickly if not immediately in official government sources . Adoption may be slower among the media in India and abroad , and among Indian authors . Important examples ( edit ) Main article : List of renamed places in India States ( edit ) Travancore - Cochin → Kerala ( 1 November 1956 ) . Madhya Bharat → Madhya Pradesh ( 1 November 1959 ) Madras State → Tamil Nadu ( 14 January 1969 ) Mysore State → Karnataka ( 1 November 1973 ) Uttaranchal → Uttarakhand ( 1 January 2007 ) Orissa → Odisha ( 4 November 2011 ) Cities ( edit ) Notable city names that were officially changed by legislation after independence include : Jabalpur ( Hindi : जबलपुर ) , from Jubbulpore , respelled in 1947 Jajmau ( Hindi : जाजमऊ ) , from Jajesmow , respelled in 1948 Kanpur ( Hindi : कानपुर ) , from Cawnpore , respelled in 1948 Vadodara ( Gujarati : વડોદરા ) , from Baroda , respelled in 1974 Thiruvananthapuram ( Malayalam : തിരുവനന്തപുരം ) , from Trivandrum , respelled in 1991 Mumbai ( Marathi : मुंबई ) , from Bombay , renamed in 1995 Kochi ( Malayalam : കൊച്ചി ) , from Cochin , respelled in 1996 Chennai ( Tamil : சென்னை ) , from Madras , renamed in 1996 Kolkata ( Bengali : কলকাতা ) , from Calcutta , respelled in 2001 Kadapa ( Telugu : కడప ) , from Cuddapah , respelled in 2005 Puducherry ( Tamil : புதுச்சேரி ) , from Pondicherry , renamed in 2006 Bengaluru ( Kannada : ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ) , from Bangalore , respelled in 2007 Belagavi from Belgaum in 2014 Tumakuru from Tumkur in 2014 Hubballi from Hubli in 2014 Shivamogga from Shimoga in 2014 Hosapete from Hospet in 2014 Mysuru from Mysore in 2014 Kalaburagi from Gulbarga in 2014 Chikkamagaluru from Chikmagalur Vijapura from Bijapur in 2014 Ballari from Bellary in 2014 Mangaluru from Mangalore in 2014 Rajahmahendravaram from Rajahmundry in 2015 Gurugram from Gurgaon in 2016 For others , by state order , see list of renamed Indian cities and states .

States and Union territories ( edit ) Goa to Govapuri Kerala to Keralam Nagaland to Naganchi West Bengal to Bengal Towns ( edit ) Ahmedabad to Karnavati Allahabad to Prayagraj Aurangabad to Sambhajinagar Bhopal to Bhojpal Hyderabad to Bhagyanagar Mahabubabad to Manukota Mahbubnagar to Palamuru Need for unification of spelling ( edit ) India has various local languages . Even ( Romanised ) English spellings in long and wide use often vary depending upon which government department or agency uses them . To the point , a few examples are Quilandy vs. Koyilandy , Canannore vs. Kannur , and Rangiya vs. Rangia . Different departments of the government may have used official spellings in use at the time , while locations associated with Indian railways mostly maintained British - era spellings . The confusion inherent in such variations has often resulted in serious consequences like people having two `` different '' addresses ( theoretically designating the same place ) in their official records leading to legal disputes , or one house having residents of different house addresses due to differing place names . Many people argue that such confusion can lead to indeterminate and / or unintended consequences See also ( edit ) India portal List of renamed Indian cities and states Renaming in South Africa References ( edit ) Jump up ^ India and the World Bank : The Politics of Aid and Influence - Page 126 Jason A.

ATP is the most commonly used `` energy currency '' of cells for most organisms . It is formed from adenosine diphosphate ( ADP ) and inorganic phosphate ( P ) . The overall reaction catalyzed by ATP synthase is : ADP + P + H ⇌ ATP + H O + H The formation of ATP from ADP and P is energetically unfavorable and would normally proceed in the reverse direction . In order to drive this reaction forward , ATPase couples ATP synthesis during cellular respiration to an electrochemical gradient created by the difference in proton ( H ) concentration across the mitochondrial membrane in eukaryotes or the plasma membrane in bacteria . During photosynthesis in plants , ATP is synthesized by ATPase using a proton gradient created in the thylakoid lumen through the thylakoid membrane and into the chloroplast stroma . ATP synthase consists of two main subunits , F and F , which has a rotational motor mechanism allowing for ATP production . Because of its rotating subunit ATP Synthase is a molecular machine .

The F , F , axle , and stator regions are color coded magenta , green , orange , and cyan respectively . Simplified model of F F - ATPase alias ATP synthase of E. coli . Subunits of the enzyme are labeled accordingly . Rotation engine of ATP synthase . Located within the thylakoid membrane and the inner mitochondrial membrane , ATP synthase consists of two regions F and F. F causes rotation of F and is made of c - ring and subunits a , b , d , F6. F is made of α , β , γ , δ ( \ displaystyle \ alpha , \ beta , \ gamma , \ delta ) subunits . F has a water soluble par that can hydrolyze ATP . F on the other hand has mainly hydrophobic regions . F F creates a pathway for protons movement across the membrane . F region ( edit ) The F portion of ATP synthase is hydrophilic and responsible for hydrolyzing ATP . Subunits α ( \ displaystyle \ alpha ) and β ( \ displaystyle \ beta ) make a hexamer with 6 binding sites . Three of them are catalytically inactive and they bind ADP . Other three subunits catalyze the ATP synthesis . The other F subunits γ , δ , ε ( \ displaystyle \ gamma , \ delta , \ epsilon ) are a part of a rotational motor mechanism . γ ( \ displaystyle \ gamma ) subunit allows β ( \ displaystyle \ beta ) to go though conformational changes , i.e closed , half open and open states allows for ATP to be bound and released once synthesized . The F particle is large and can be seen in the transmission electron microscope by negative staining . These are particles of 9 nm diameter that pepper the inner mitochondrial membrane . F - Subunits Subunit Human Gene alpha ATP5A1 , ATPAF2 beta ATP5B , ATPAF1 , C16orf7 gamma ATP5C1 delta ATP5D epsilon ATP5E F region ( edit ) F subunit F6 from the peripheral stalk region of ATP synthase . Fo is a water insoluble protein with eight subunits and transmembrane ring . The ring has a tetramer shape with protein helix loop helix that goes though conformational change when protonated and deprotonated allowing to push neighboring subunits to rotate causing the spinning of F which then affects conformation of F also , resulting on switching of states of alpha and beta subunits . The F region of ATP synthase is a proton pore that is embedded in the mitochondrial membrane . It consists of three main subunits a , b , and c , and ( in humans ) six additional subunits , d , e , f , g , F6 , and 8 ( or A6L ) .

ADP and P ( pink ) shown being combined into ATP ( red ) , and the rotating γ ( gamma ) subunit in black causing conformation . Depiction of ATP synthase using the chemiosmotic proton gradient to power ATP synthesis through oxidative phosphorylation . In the 1960s through the 1970s , Paul Boyer , a UCLA Professor , developed the binding change , or flip - flop , mechanism theory , which postulated that ATP synthesis is dependent on a conformational change in ATP synthase generated by rotation of the gamma subunit . The research group of John E. Walker , then at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge , crystallized the F catalytic - domain of ATP synthase . The structure , at the time the largest asymmetric protein structure known , indicated that Boyer 's rotary - catalysis model was , in essence , correct . For elucidating this , Boyer and Walker shared half of the 1997 Nobel Prize in Chemistry . The crystal structure of the F showed alternating alpha and beta subunits ( 3 of each ) , arranged like segments of an orange around a rotating asymmetrical gamma subunit . According to the current model of ATP synthesis ( known as the alternating catalytic model ) , the transmembrane potential created by ( H+ ) proton cations supplied by the electron transport chain , drives the ( H+ ) proton cations from the intermembrane space through the membrane via the F region of ATP synthase . A portion of the F ( the ring of c - subunits ) rotates as the protons pass through the membrane . The c - ring is tightly attached to the asymmetric central stalk ( consisting primarily of the gamma subunit ) , causing it to rotate within the alpha beta of F causing the 3 catalytic nucleotide binding sites to go through a series of conformational changes that leads to ATP synthesis . The major F subunits are prevented from rotating in sympathy with the central stalk rotor by a peripheral stalk that joins the alpha beta to the non-rotating portion of F. The structure of the intact ATP synthase is currently known at low - resolution from electron cryo - microscopy ( cryo - EM ) studies of the complex . The cryo - EM model of ATP synthase suggests that the peripheral stalk is a flexible structure that wraps around the complex as it joins F to F. Under the right conditions , the enzyme reaction can also be carried out in reverse , with ATP hydrolysis driving proton pumping across the membrane . The binding change mechanism involves the active site of a β subunit 's cycling between three states . In the `` loose '' state , ADP and phosphate enter the active site ; in the adjacent diagram , this is shown in pink . The enzyme then undergoes a change in shape and forces these molecules together , with the active site in the resulting `` tight '' state ( shown in red ) binding the newly produced ATP molecule with very high affinity . Finally , the active site cycles back to the open state ( orange ) , releasing ATP and binding more ADP and phosphate , ready for the next cycle of ATP production . Physiological role ( edit ) Like other enzymes , the activity of F F ATP synthase is reversible . Large - enough quantities of ATP cause it to create a transmembrane proton gradient , this is used by fermenting bacteria that do not have an electron transport chain , but rather hydrolyze ATP to make a proton gradient , which they use to drive flagella and the transport of nutrients into the cell . In respiring bacteria under physiological conditions , ATP synthase , in general , runs in the opposite direction , creating ATP while using the proton motive force created by the electron transport chain as a source of energy . The overall process of creating energy in this fashion is termed oxidative phosphorylation . The same process takes place in the mitochondria , where ATP synthase is located in the inner mitochondrial membrane and the F - part projects into mitochondrial matrix . The consumption of ATP by ATP - synthase pumps proton cations into the matrix . Evolution ( edit ) The evolution of ATP synthase is thought to have been modular whereby two functionally independent subunits became associated and gained new functionality . This association appears to have occurred early in evolutionary history , because essentially the same structure and activity of ATP synthase enzymes are present in all kingdoms of life . The F - ATP synthase displays high functional and mechanistic similarity to the V - ATPase . However , whereas the F - ATP synthase generates ATP by utilising a proton gradient , the V - ATPase generates a proton gradient at the expense of ATP , generating pH values of as low as 1 . The F region also shows significant similarity to hexameric DNA helicases , and the F region shows some similarity to H + - powered flagellar motor complexes . The α β hexamer of the F region shows significant structural similarity to hexameric DNA helicases ; both form a ring with 3-fold rotational symmetry with a central pore . Both have roles dependent on the relative rotation of a macromolecule within the pore ; the DNA helicases use the helical shape of DNA to drive their motion along the DNA molecule and to detect supercoiling , whereas the α β hexamer uses the conformational changes through the rotation of the γ subunit to drive an enzymatic reaction . The H + motor of the F particle shows great functional similarity to the H + motors that drive flagella . Both feature a ring of many small alpha - helical proteins that rotate relative to nearby stationary proteins , using a H + potential gradient as an energy source . This link is tenuous , however , as the overall structure of flagellar motors is far more complex than that of the F particle and the ring with about 30 rotating proteins is far larger than the 10 , 11 , or 14 helical proteins in the F complex . The modular evolution theory for the origin of ATP synthase suggests that two subunits with independent function , a DNA helicase with ATPase activity and a H + motor , were able to bind , and the rotation of the motor drove the ATPase activity of the helicase in reverse . This complex then evolved greater efficiency and eventually developed into today 's intricate ATP synthases . Alternatively , the DNA helicase / H + motor complex may have had H + pump activity with the ATPase activity of the helicase driving the H + motor in reverse . This may have evolved to carry out the reverse reaction and act as an ATP synthase . In different species ( edit ) E coli ( edit ) E. coli ATP synthase is the simplest known form of ATP synthase , with 8 different subunit types . Yeast ( edit ) Yeast ATP synthase is one of the best - studied eukaryotic ATP synthases ; and five F , eight F subunits , and seven associated proteins have been identified . Most of these proteins have homologues in other eukaryotes . Plant ( edit ) In plants , ATP synthase is also present in chloroplasts ( CF F - ATP synthase ) . The enzyme is integrated into thylakoid membrane ; the CF - part sticks into stroma , where dark reactions of photosynthesis ( also called the light - independent reactions or the Calvin cycle ) and ATP synthesis take place . The overall structure and the catalytic mechanism of the chloroplast ATP synthase are almost the same as those of the mitochondrial enzyme . However , in chloroplasts , the proton motive force is generated not by respiratory electron transport chain but by primary photosynthetic proteins . Bovine ( edit ) The ATP synthase isolated from bovine heart mitochondria ( Bos taurus ) is , in terms of biochemistry and structure , the best - characterized ATP synthase . Beef heart is used as a source for the enzyme because of the high concentration of mitochondria in cardiac muscle .

When Matthew goes to pick the child up at the railway station , he finds not a boy , but a high - spirited and talkative girl , Anne Shirley . At first , the Cuthberts are inclined to send her back , particularly after Marilla 's brooch goes missing , and Anne , in despair , runs away . Reconciled and settled in her new home and school , Anne once again displays boundless enthusiasm which is nevertheless easily turned into despair when things go wrong , which they often do . Slowly , her ebullient nature wins over those around her . Cast ( edit ) Main ( edit ) Amybeth McNulty as Anne Shirley Geraldine James as Marilla Cuthbert R.H. Thomson as Matthew Cuthbert Dalila Bela as Diana Barry Lucas Jade Zumann as Gilbert Blythe Corrine Koslo as Rachel Lynde Aymeric Jett Montaz as Jerry Baynard Others ( edit ) Jonathan Holmes as Mr. William Barry Helen Johns as Mrs. Eliza Barry Ryan Kiera Armstrong as Minnie Mary Barry Deborah Grover as Josephine Barry Wayne Best as John Blythe Phillip Williams as Thomas Lynde David Ingram as Mr. Harmon Andrews Janet Porter as Mrs. Andrews Christian Martyn as Billy Andrews Lia Pappas - Kemps as Jane Andrews Ella Jonas Farlinger as Prissy Andrews Jim Annan as Mr. Gillis Fiona Byrne as Mrs. Gillis Kyla Matthews as Ruby Gillis Jacob Ursomarzo as Moody Spurgeon Stephen Tracey as Mr. Phillips Cory Gruter - Andrew as Cole Mackenzie Miranda McKeon as Josie Pye Glenna Walters as Tillie Boulter Katelyn Wells as Mary Joe Jacob Horsley as Charlie Sloane Production ( edit ) According to executive producer Miranda de Pencier , this adaptation of the novel has a different look and feel to past productions , aiming for a `` documentary level of realism '' , as reflected in the extraordinary detail which has gone into the design of sets and costumes . Personnel ( edit ) Besides the show itself having a larger number of female characters than male , women serving as executive producer and showrunner , the series has several female directors . For the second season , showrunner and scriptwriter Moira Walley - Beckett is joined by a team of women writers . Casting ( edit ) Approximately 1800 girls on three continents auditioned for the role of Anne Shirley . Amybeth McNulty was chosen for her ability to deliver dialogue which is `` incredibly thick and dynamic and beautiful '' , according to Miranda de Pencier . Walley - Beckett describes her as at once `` luminous , '' transparent , smart , soulful and emotional . Filming locations ( edit ) The series is filmed partially in Prince Edward Island as well as locations in Southern Ontario ( including Millbrook and Caledon ) . Music ( edit ) The opening theme is the song `` Ahead by a Century '' performed and originally composed by Canadian band The Tragically Hip . Themes ( edit ) Moira Walley - Beckett had this to say about her treatment , which is darker than the previous productions : `` In this day and age , themes of identity , prejudice , bullying , being an outsider , searching for a way to be accepted and how to belong are entirely topical and super relevant , and those are themes that are built into the story of ' Anne . ' '' She went on to call Anne Shirley an `` accidental feminist '' , and how she `` really wanted to tell this story now . '' Broadcast and Release ( edit ) The series initially premiered on March 19 , 2017 , on CBC and aired on a weekly basis , the season finale airing on April 30 , 2017 . The series debuted on Netflix on May 12 , 2017 , under the title Anne with an E . Episodes ( edit ) Season 1 ( 2017 ) ( edit ) No .

Reception ( edit ) Critical response ( edit ) The series has achieved a rating of 88 % on Rotten Tomatoes , the site 's critical consensus stating : `` Anne with an E uses its complex central character to offer a boldly stylish , emotionally resonant spin on classic source material that satisfies in its own right . '' The series has received a rating of 79 on Metacritic based on fifteen reviews , indicating `` generally favorable reviews '' . Emily Ashby , writing for Common Sense Media , calls the series an `` exceptional '' and `` spectacular '' interpretation , giving it four out of five stars . Tasha Cerny , contributor for the Tracking Board , praises the cinematography as lush and colourful , the characters vibrant , and the plot `` surprisingly thrilling for a story about a young girl living in a small secluded community in the late nineteenth century . I laughed , I cried , and I did n't expect either from a show about a little girl . '' Gwen Inhat of the A.V. Club , calls the series `` at once darker and sweeter than the original '' novel , praising the core cast , reserving the highest for the series lead : `` Amybeth McNulty defies her youth with a performance that 's less a portrayal of Anne than an absolute possession . It ca n't be easy to make Anne 's fanciful language sing the way she does , and McNulty captures the endearing awkwardness that enables Anne to win over everyone she comes in contact with . '' Writing of the 90 - minute premiere episode for the Toronto Star , Johanna Schneller was appreciative of Walley - Beckett 's departures from the novel , bringing its subtext to the fore : `` Reading between the novel 's lines and adding verisimilitude , she gives us quick but potent glimpses of the miseries many orphans faced in 1890s imperialist culture . '' Hanh Nguyen , reviewing the series for IndieWire , concurs with this assessment , saying : `` Rather than ruining the series , they give the context for why Anne would be filled with gratitude for the beauties of nature , basic human decency and having a family to call her own . Montgomery had based much of Anne 's need for escape into imagination on her own lonely childhood , and her stories have always had an underlying poignancy that made them all the sweeter . '' Jen Chaney , writing for Vulture.com , agrees , saying : `` What distinguishes it from other previous Anne iterations is its willingness to harden some of the story 's softness , just enough , to create an element of realism that period pieces , Gables - related or not , can be inclined to avoid . '' Neil Genzlinger writing for The New York Times , commenting on reports of darkness and grittiness , goes so far as to call the adaptation `` richer '' than the source material : `` Ms. McNulty 's Anne is still wonderfully ebullient and eminently likable ; she 's just not the one - dimensional figure of other adaptations '' . Annie Hirschlag , writing for Mic , suggests that a genuinely contemporary Anne is bound to reflect the current television landscape and wider culture of its times ( the 2010s ) : `` Since today 's entertainment is peppered with antiheroes -- characters who are far from perfect , even occasionally villainous -- it makes sense that Anne 's familiar idealism is fringed with darkness and agony . '' Some reviewers were more ambivalent , mainly about Walley - Beckett 's changes to the story . Canadian novelist Saleema Nawaz , who reviewed the 90 - minute first episode for Toronto Life , said she enjoyed it more than she expected , particularly the set designs and costumes , as well as the performances by McNulty and Thomson , and she approved of the choice of theme song as reflective of the continued relevance of the source material . She was less sure about how far the series intended to stray from that source material , and disapproved of the `` manufactured drama , such as Matthew 's wild horse ride '' . Writing for Entertainment Weekly , Isabella Beidenharn expressed similar feelings , but , `` putting the source material aside , it 's a fine show on its own '' , and she conceded that `` inventing a dark side might help Anne With an E fit into today 's TV landscape '' . Allison Keene , writing for Collider , agrees that Anne is a good drama on its own terms , but allows it is `` only a fair adaptation '' of the novel , at its best in the home scenes : `` Anne with an E is undeniably the most stylish adaptation we 've ever seen of Anne of Green Gables . But its desire to reveal more of Anne 's miserable past in order to be more true to what the desperation of an orphan is like feels at odds with Montgomery 's story . '' Writing for Variety , critic Sonia Saraiya is even more ambivalent , describing the series as on the one hand `` a brilliant adaptation '' which `` succeeds admirably '' , but on the other hand , `` the show ca n't quite sustain the brilliance , veering first into maudlin territory and then into the oddly saccharine as it tests out its tone '' , contending that `` the show gets a bit bogged down in telling the story of Anne 's dysfunction '' , presenting `` a slightly soapy view of Anne 's trials and tribulations that at times really humanize her and in others , are rather infantilizing '' . Sarah Larson , writing for The New Yorker , was not at all impressed with changes made to the story , arguing that they alter Anne 's character to the point of non-recognition . While she acknowledges that bringing subtext to the fore is a fine idea , she is not pleased with the execution , saying that the result is part `` the Anne we know and love '' and part `` untrustworthy stranger '' , calling the alteration and addition of scenes a `` betrayal '' of Montgomery 's novel , comparing the treatment unfavourably to Patricia Rozema 's 1999 adaptation of Jane Austen 's Mansfield Park . For Joanna Robinson , writing for Vanity Fair , a central problem with the show is that it `` seems to think that in order for Anne to be a feminist figure , she has to butt up against a straw - man - filled patriarchy , '' and so it turned many of the male characters into misogynists , most notably the Reverend Allan , who is considered by Anne to be a `` kindred spirit '' in the book : `` Anne with an E seems to think Anne 's triumphs are only noteworthy if she 's continually told she ca n't succeed , when in fact her unfettered brilliance needs no such clumsy opposition . It also seems to think that Anne needs a radical feminist makeover when , in fact , the story of her success was feminist in its own right . '' This is part of a more general problem Robinson notes , that conflicts are exaggerated and overdone : `` this series thrives on non-stop tragedy .

What a Friend We Have in Jesus - wikipedia What a Friend We Have in Jesus Jump to : navigation , search `` What a Friend We Have in Jesus '' Song Genre Hymn Composer ( s ) Charles C. Converse ( 1868 ) Lyricist ( s ) Joseph M. Scriven ( 1855 ) `` What a Friend We Have in Jesus '' is a Christian hymn originally written by Joseph M. Scriven as a poem in 1855 to comfort his mother who was living in Ireland while he was in Canada . Scriven originally published the poem anonymously , and only received full credit for it in the 1880s . The tune to the hymn was composed by Charles Crozat Converse in 1868 . William Bolcom composed a setting of the hymn . The hymn also has many versions with different lyrics in multiple languages . The Handbook to the Lutheran Hymnal notes , `` In spite of the fact that this hymn , with its tune , has been criticized as being too much on the order of the sentimental gospel type , its popularity remains strong , and the hymn retains a place in modern hymnals . '' In some settings , the lyrics have been matched to other tunes such as the Welsh `` Calon Lân '' ( originally wedded to the Welsh poem translated as `` A Pure Heart '' ) .

In Indonesia , the hymn is known as `` Yesus Kawan yang Sejati '' and is sung in Indonesian or Batak ( the indigenous language of North Sumatra ) in Manado , Maluccan , and Protestant churches ( around 6 % of the population ) . Statistically , the majority of Indonesians are Muslim ( around 76 % ) but native religion elements have up to 90 % of the total population and consequently the hymn is widely known only among musicians , scholars and Indonesia 's Christian community . However , prior to when Suharto seized power in 1967 , the same music was adopted for a popular patriotic song titled `` Ibu Pertiwi '' . In Hindi , the hymn is a very important song and is sung as `` Yeshu kaisa dost pyara '' . In Marathi , the hymn has been translated as `` Kon Mitra Yeshuwani '' By Mary Bessel. The song is common during solemn services ( Passion week and burial ) . In Malayalam , the hymn as `` Enthu Nallore sakhi Yesu '' is sung to comfort and as an invitation to Christ . This hymn had been translated into Telugu and it is sung during occasions as a song of comfort and solace . It is translated as `` Preethi gala mana Yesu '' and it is listed in the Andhra Kraisthava Keerthanalu ( Andhra Christian hymnals ) as hymn No. 407 . In India , the hymn sung in Konkani , `` Dulob Jezu '' , was translated by Felix Paul Noronha of Mangalore .

It has been really exciting and fun . '' Kitsis added : `` We are changing around what we 're doing this year and going back to that season 1 mentality of small town stories and smaller arcs . '' This season will focus on Storybrooke as the main setting , but will also show new realms and there will be the exploration of the Savior 's mythology . Kitsis and Horowitz hired two directors from their Freeform series Dead of Summer , Norman Buckley , Mairzee Almas , and Michael Schultz helm episodes of the season . Jennifer Lynch directed the eighth episode of the season , `` I 'll Be Your Mirror '' .

Composers Alan Zachary and Michael Weiner will be writing the original numbers featured , with arrangements provided by the show 's long - time composer Mark Isham . Kitsis and Hororwitz spoke about the nature of the episode saying , `` It actually is a huge part of the mythology of the show and there are some big things that happen in the episode , frankly , it 's been one of the challenges of doing the musical because we never wanted to do something where it was just like a to - the - side , one - off thing , and then get back to the main story . We want to see it part of the main story , which meant we had to really plan out this season with some great detail . '' Casting ( edit ) Horowitz : There certainly are nods to the film that we all love so much , that we 're peppering in throughout . We 're , right now , focusing on ( Aladdin , Jasmine , and Jafar ) . Kitsis : Obviously , I do n't think we would touch the genie . I would like to see a monkey but I ca n't promise anything .

Philippe Petit - wikipedia Philippe Petit Jump to : navigation , search Philippe Petit Petit at the 81st Academy Awards in February 2009 ( 1949 - 08 - 13 ) 13 August 1949 ( age 68 ) Nemours , Seine - et - Marne , France Occupation High - wire artist Philippe Petit ( French pronunciation : ( filip pəti ) ; born 13 August 1949 ) is a French high - wire artist who gained fame for his high - wire walk between the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York City , on the morning of August 7 , 1974 as well as his high wire walk between the Notre Dame cathedral in Paris , 1971 . For his unauthorized feat 400 metres ( 1,000 feet ) above the ground -- which he referred to as `` le coup '' -- he rigged a 200 - kilogram ( 440 - pound ) cable and used a custom - made 8 - metre ( 30 - foot ) long , 25 - kilogram ( 55 - pound ) balancing pole . He performed for 45 minutes , making eight passes along the wire . The following week , he celebrated his 25th birthday . All charges were dismissed in exchange for him doing a performance in Central Park for children . Since then , Petit has lived in New York , where he has been artist - in - residence at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine , also a location of other aerial performances . He has done wire walking as part of official celebrations in New York , across the United States , and in France and other countries , as well as teaching workshops on the art . In 2008 , Man on Wire , a documentary directed by James Marsh about Petit 's walk between the towers , won numerous awards . He was also the subject of a children 's book and an animated adaptation of it , released in 2005 . The Walk , a movie based on Petit 's walk , was released in September 2015 , starring Joseph Gordon - Levitt as Petit and directed by Robert Zemeckis . He also became adept at equestrianism , juggling , fencing , carpentry , rock - climbing , and bullfighting . Spurning circuses and their formulaic performances , he created his street persona on the sidewalks of Paris . In the early 1970s , he visited New York City , where he frequently juggled and worked on a slackline in Washington Square Park .

At an early age , Petit discovered magic and juggling . He loved to climb , and at 16 , he took his first steps on a tightrope wire . He told a reporter , Within one year , I taught myself to do all the things you could do on a wire . I learned the backward somersault , the front somersault , the unicycle , the bicycle , the chair on the wire , jumping through hoops . But I thought , `` What is the big deal here ? It looks almost ugly . '' So I started to discard those tricks and to reinvent my art . In June 1971 , Petit secretly installed a cable between the two towers of Notre Dame de Paris . On the morning of June 26 , 1971 , he `` juggled balls '' and `` pranced back and forth '' as the crowd below applauded . World Trade Center walk ( edit ) Before his Twin Towers walk , Petit was known to New Yorkers for his frequent tightrope - walking performances and magic shows in the parks of New York , especially Washington Square Park . Petit 's most famous performance was in August 1974 , conducted on a wire between the roofs of the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in Manhattan , a quarter mile above the ground . He performed for 45 minutes , making eight passes along the wire , during which he walked , danced , lay down on the wire , and saluted watchers from a kneeling position . Office workers , construction crews and policemen cheered him on . Planning ( edit ) Petit conceived his `` coup '' when he was 18 , when he first read about the proposed construction of the Twin Towers and saw drawings of the project in a magazine , which he read while sitting at a dentist 's office in 1968 . Petit was seized by the idea of performing there , and began collecting articles on the Towers whenever he could . What was called the `` artistic crime of the century '' took Petit six years of planning , during which he learned everything he could about the buildings and their construction . In the same period , he began to perform high wire walking at other famous places . Rigging his wire secretly , he performed as a combination of circus act and public display . In 1971 , he performed his first such walk between the towers of the cathedral of Notre Dame de Paris , while priests were simultaneously being ordained inside the building . In 1973 , he walked a wire rigged between the two north pylons of the Sydney Harbour Bridge , in Sydney , Australia . In planning for the Twin Towers walk , Petit had to learn how to accommodate such issues as the swaying of the high towers due to wind , which was part of their design ; effects of wind and weather on the wire at that height , how to rig a 200 ft ( 61 m ) steel cable across the 138 ft ( 42 m ) gap between the towers ( at a height of 1,368 ft ( 417 m ) ) , and how to gain entry with his collaborators , first to scope out the conditions and lastly , to stage the project . They had to get heavy equipment to the rooftops . He traveled to New York on numerous occasions to make first - hand observations . Since the towers were still under construction , Petit and one of his collaborators , New York - based photographer Jim Moore , rented a helicopter to take aerial photographs of the buildings . Jean - François and Jean - Louis helped him practice in a field in France , and accompanied him to take part in the final rigging of the project , as well as to photograph it . Francis Brunn , a German juggler , provided financial support for the proposed project and its planning . Petit and his crew gained entry into the towers several times and hid in upper floors and on the roofs of the unfinished buildings in order to study security measures , in addition to analyzing the construction and identifying places to anchor the wire and cavalletti . Using his own observations , drawings , and Moore 's photographs , Petit constructed a scale model of the towers in order to design the needed rigging to prepare for the wire walk . Working from an ID of an American who worked in the building , Petit made fake identification cards for himself and his collaborators ( claiming that they were contractors who were installing an electrified fence on the roof ) to gain access to the buildings . Prior to this , Petit had carefully observed the clothes worn by construction workers and the kinds of tools they carried . He also took note of the clothing of office workers so that some of his collaborators could pose as white collar workers . He observed what time the workers arrived and left , so he could determine when he would have roof access . As the target date of his `` coup '' approached , he claimed to be a journalist with Metropolis , a French architecture magazine , so that he could gain permission to interview the workers on the roof . The Port Authority allowed Petit to conduct the interviews , which he used as a pretext to make more observations . He was once caught by a police officer on the roof , and his hopes to do the high - wire walk were dampened . He eventually regained the confidence to proceed . On the night of Tuesday , 6 August 1974 , Petit and his crew had a lucky break and got a ride in a freight elevator to the 110th floor with their equipment . They stored it just 19 steps below the roof . In order to pass the cable across the void , Petit and his crew had settled on using a bow and arrow attached to a rope . They had to practice this many times to perfect their technique . They first shot across a fishing line , which was attached to larger ropes , and finally to the 450 - pound steel cable . The team was delayed when the heavy cable sank too fast , and had to be pulled up manually for hours . Petit had already identified points at which to anchor two tiranti ( guy lines ) to other points to stabilize the cable and keep the swaying of the wire to a minimum . Event ( edit ) Shortly after 7 am local time , Petit stepped out on the wire and started to perform . He was 1350 feet ( 411 m ) , a quarter mile , above the ground . He performed for 45 minutes , making eight passes along the wire , during which he walked , danced , lay down on the wire , and knelt to salute watchers . Crowds gathered on the streets below , and he said later he could hear their murmuring and cheers . When NYPD and PAPD officers learned of his stunt , they came up to the roofs of both buildings to try to persuade him to get off the wire . They threatened to pluck him off by helicopter . Petit got off when it started to rain . Aftermath ( edit ) There was extensive news coverage and public appreciation of Petit 's high - wire walk ; the district attorney dropped all formal charges of trespassing and other items relating to his walk . In exchange , he was required to give a free aerial show for children in Central Park . He performed on a high - wire walk in the Park above Belvedere Lake ( known now as Turtle Pond ) . The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey gave Petit a lifetime pass to the Twin Towers ' Observation Deck . He autographed a steel beam close to the point where he began his walk . Petit 's high - wire walk is credited with bringing the Twin Towers much needed attention and even affection , as they initially had been unpopular . Critics such as historian Lewis Mumford had regarded them as ugly and utilitarian in design , and too large a development for the area . The Port Authority was having trouble renting out all of the office space . Mordicai Gerstein wrote and illustrated a children 's book , The Man Who Walked Between The Towers ( 2003 ) , which won a Caldecott Medal for his art . It was adapted and produced as an animated short film by the same title , directed by Michael Sporn and released in 2005 , which won several awards . The documentary film Man on Wire ( 2008 ) by UK director James Marsh is about Petit and his 1974 WTC performance ; it won both the World Cinema Jury and Audience awards at the Sundance Film Festival 2008 . It combines historical footage with re-enactment and has the spirit of a heist film . It also won awards at the 2008 Full Frame Documentary Film Festival in Durham , North Carolina , and the Academy Award for Best Documentary in 2009 . On stage with Marsh to accept the Oscar award , Petit made a coin vanish in his hands while thanking the Academy `` for believing in magic '' . He balanced the Oscar by its head on his chin to cheers from the audience . Petit 's memoir was adapted into a biographical drama entitled The Walk ( 2015 ) , directed by Robert Zemeckis and starring Joseph Gordon - Levitt as Petit . Later life ( edit ) Petit has made dozens of public high - wire performances in his career ; in 1986 he re-enacted the crossing of the Niagara River by Blondin for an IMAX film . In 1989 , to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the French Revolution , mayor Jacques Chirac invited him to walk an inclined wire strung from the ground at the Place du Trocadéro to the second level of the Eiffel Tower , crossing the Seine . Petit briefly headlined with the Ringling Brothers Circus , but preferred staging his own performances . During his stint with the circus and a practice walk , he suffered his only fall , from 45 feet ( 14 m ) , breaking several ribs . He says he has never fallen during a performance . `` If I had , I would n't be here talking about it . '' Petit regularly gives lectures and workshops internationally on a variety of topics and subjects . He single - handedly built a barn in the Catskill Mountains using the methods and tools of 18th - century timber framers . He wrote his eighth book , A Square Peg . He has also created an ebook for TED Books , entitled Cheating the Impossible : Ideas and Recipes from a Rebellious High - Wire Artist . Petit divides his time between New York City , where he is an artist in residence at the Cathedral of Saint John the Divine , and a hideaway in the Catskill Mountains . Among those who have associated with some of his projects are such artists as : Mikhail Baryshnikov , Werner Herzog , Annie Leibovitz , Miloš Forman , Volker Schlöndorff , Twyla Tharp , Peter Beard , Marcel Marceau , Paul Auster , Paul Winter , Debra Winger , Robin Williams and Sting . Director James Signorelli assisted with the creation of the book To Reach the Clouds ( 2002 ) , about the Twin Towers walk . In the book , Petit not only wrote about his spectacular feat , and the events of his life which led up to it , but also expressed his feelings following the September 11 attacks during which the Twin Towers were destroyed . He wrote that on that morning , `` My towers became our towers . I saw them collapse -- hurling , crushing thousands of lives . Disbelief preceded sorrow for the obliteration of the buildings , perplexity descended before rage at the unbearable loss of life . '' Besides paying tribute to those who were killed , Petit also called for a rebuilding of the towers , promising that `` When the towers again twin - tickle the clouds , I offer to walk again , to be the expression of the builders ' collective voice . Together , we will rejoice in an aerial song of victory . '' Notwithstanding Petit 's wishes , the Twin Towers were eventually replaced by a different complex of buildings , thus precluding the possibility of Petit ( or anyone else ) repeating a similar feat at the World Trade Center site .

In culture ( edit ) The song , `` Man on Wire '' by the band 27 is a tribute to Philippe Petit . The song , `` Sleepwalking , '' by Danish composer Ste van Holm is a tribute to Petit 's World Trade Center walk . The Low Anthem 's song , `` Boeing 737 '' , from their 2011 album Smart Flesh , refers to Petit 's Twin Towers walk . American rock band Incubus used a photo of Petit as the cover art for their album , If Not Now , When ? ( 2011 ) . Colum McCann 's National Book Award - winning novel , Let the Great World Spin ( 2009 ) , features Petit 's Twin Towers walk as its opening passage and a centrepiece to which numerous characters are connected . `` Funambulist '' , a song by American metal band Cormorant , is about his walk between the Twin Towers . The song `` Step Out Of The Void '' by musician Howard Moss is a tribute to Philippe Petit , in the album Outside the Pale ( 2013 ) . The song `` Man On A Wire '' by The Script on their fourth album , No Sound Without Silence , is influenced by Petit 's high - wire legacy . The song `` Stand Up Comedy '' by U2 on their twelfth album , No Line On The Horizon , references `` The wire is stretched in between our two towers '' . Petit was the inspiration for the 5th Anniversary 9 / 11 cover of The New Yorker magazine ( Sep. 11 , 2006 ) , `` Soaring Spirit '' , by John Mavroudis ( concept ) and Owen Smith ( art ) . That cover was named Cover of the Year by the American Society of Magazine Editors ( ASME ) . The two - part cover was a first for The New Yorker .

Winnie - the - Pooh Pooh in an illustration by E.H. Shepard First appearance When We Were Very Young ( 1924 ) ( As Edward Bear ) Winnie - the - Pooh ( As Winnie - the - Pooh ) Created by A.A. Milne Information Gender Male Winnie - the - Pooh , also called Pooh Bear , is a fictional anthropomorphic teddy bear created by English author A.A. Milne . The first collection of stories about the character was the book Winnie - the - Pooh ( 1926 ) , and this was followed by The House at Pooh Corner ( 1928 ) . Milne also included a poem about the bear in the children 's verse book When We Were Very Young ( 1924 ) and many more in Now We Are Six ( 1927 ) . All four volumes were illustrated by E.H. Shepard . The Pooh stories have been translated into many languages , including Alexander Lenard 's Latin translation , Winnie ille Pu , which was first published in 1958 , and , in 1960 , became the only Latin book ever to have been featured on The New York Times Best Seller list . Hyphens in the character 's name were dropped by Disney when the company adapted the Pooh stories into a series of features that became one of its most successful franchises . In popular film adaptations , Pooh Bear has been voiced by actors Sterling Holloway , Hal Smith , and Jim Cummings in English and Yevgeny Leonov in Russian .

Clockwise from bottom left : Tigger , Kanga , Edward Bear ( `` Winnie - the - Pooh '' ) , Eeyore , and Piglet . Roo was lost long ago ; the other characters were made up for the stories . A.A. Milne named the character Winnie - the - Pooh after a teddy bear owned by his son , Christopher Robin Milne , who was the basis for the character Christopher Robin . The rest of Christopher Robin Milne 's toys -- Piglet , Eeyore , Kanga , Roo and Tigger -- were incorporated into Milne 's stories . Two more characters , Owl and Rabbit , were created by Milne 's imagination , while Gopher was added to the Disney version . Christopher Robin 's toy bear is on display at the Main Branch of the New York Public Library in New York City . Harry Colebourn and Winnie , 1914 Christopher Milne had named his toy bear after Winnie , a Canadian black bear he often saw at London Zoo , and `` Pooh '' , a swan they had met while on holiday . The bear cub was purchased from a hunter for $20 by Canadian Lieutenant Harry Colebourn in White River , Ontario , Canada , while en route to England during the First World War . He named the bear `` Winnie '' after his adopted hometown in Winnipeg , Manitoba . `` Winnie '' was surreptitiously brought to England with her owner , and gained unofficial recognition as The Fort Garry Horse regimental mascot . Colebourn left Winnie at the London Zoo while he and his unit were in France ; after the war she was officially donated to the zoo , as she had become a much loved attraction there . Pooh the swan appears as a character in its own right in When We Were Very Young . In the first chapter of Winnie - the - Pooh , Milne offers this explanation of why Winnie - the - Pooh is often called simply `` Pooh '' : But his arms were so stiff ... they stayed up straight in the air for more than a week , and whenever a fly came and settled on his nose he had to blow it off . And I think -- but I am not sure -- that that is why he is always called Pooh . The American writer William Safire surmised that the Milnes ' invention of the name `` Winnie the Pooh '' may have also been influenced by the haughty character Pooh - Bah in Gilbert and Sullivan 's The Mikado ( 1885 ) . Ashdown forest : the setting for the stories The Winnie - the - Pooh stories are set in Ashdown Forest , East Sussex , England . The forest is a large area of tranquil open heathland on the highest sandy ridges of the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty situated 30 miles ( 50 km ) south of London . In 1925 Milne , a Londoner , bought a country home a mile to the north of the forest at Cotchford Farm , near Hartfield . According to Christopher Milne , while his father continued to live in London `` ... the four of us -- he , his wife , his son and his son 's nanny -- would pile into a large blue , chauffeur - driven Fiat and travel down every Saturday morning and back again every Monday afternoon . And we would spend a whole glorious month there in the spring and two months in the summer . '' From the front lawn the family had a view across a meadow to a line of alders that fringed the River Medway , beyond which the ground rose through more trees until finally `` above them , in the faraway distance , crowning the view , was a bare hilltop . In the centre of this hilltop was a clump of pines . '' Most of his father 's visits to the forest at this time were , he noted , family expeditions on foot `` to make yet another attempt to count the pine trees on Gill 's Lap or to search for the marsh gentian '' . Christopher added that , inspired by Ashdown Forest , his father had made it `` the setting for two of his books , finishing the second little over three years after his arrival '' . Many locations in the stories can be linked to real places in and around the forest . As Christopher Milne wrote in his autobiography : `` Pooh 's forest and Ashdown Forest are identical '' . For example , the fictional `` Hundred Acre Wood '' was in reality Five Hundred Acre Wood ; Galleon 's Leap was inspired by the prominent hilltop of Gill 's Lap , while a clump of trees just north of Gill 's Lap became Christopher Robin 's The Enchanted Place because no - one had ever been able to count whether there were sixty - three or sixty - four trees in the circle . The landscapes depicted in E.H. Shepard 's illustrations for the Winnie - the - Pooh books were directly inspired by the distinctive landscape of Ashdown Forest , with its high , open heathlands of heather , gorse , bracken and silver birch punctuated by hilltop clumps of pine trees . Many of Shepard 's illustrations can be matched to actual views , allowing for a degree of artistic licence . Shepard 's sketches of pine trees and other forest scenes are held at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London . The game of Poohsticks was originally played by Christopher Milne on a footbridge across a tributary of the River Medway in Posingford Wood , close to Cotchford Farm . The wooden bridge is now a tourist attraction , and it has become traditional to play the game there using sticks gathered in nearby woodland . When the footbridge recently had to be replaced , the engineer designed a new structure based closely on the drawings of the bridge by Shepard in the books , which were somewhat different than the original structure . First publication Winnie - the - Pooh 's debut in the 24 December 1925 London Evening News Christopher Robin 's teddy bear , Edward , made his character début in A.A. Milne 's poem , `` Teddy Bear '' , in the edition of 13 February 1924 of Punch , and the same poem was published in Milne 's book of children 's verse When We Were Very Young ( 6 November 1924 ) . Winnie - the - Pooh first appeared by name on 24 December 1925 , in a Christmas story commissioned and published by the London newspaper The Evening News . It was illustrated by J.H. Dowd . The first collection of Pooh stories appeared in the book Winnie - the - Pooh . The Evening News Christmas story reappeared as the first chapter of the book . At the beginning , it explained that Pooh was in fact Christopher Robin 's Edward Bear , who had been renamed by the boy . He was renamed after a black bear at London Zoo called Winnie who got her name from the fact that her owner had come from Winnipeg , Canada . The book was published in October 1926 by the publisher of Milne 's earlier children 's work , Methuen , in England , and E.P. Dutton in the United States . Character In the Milne books , Pooh is naive and slow - witted , but he is also friendly , thoughtful , and steadfast . Although he and his friends agree that he `` has no Brain '' , Pooh is occasionally acknowledged to have a clever idea , usually driven by common sense . These include riding in Christopher Robin 's umbrella to rescue Piglet from a flood , discovering `` the North Pole '' by picking it up to help fish Roo out of the river , inventing the game of Poohsticks , and getting Eeyore out of the river by dropping a large rock on one side of him to wash him towards the bank . Pooh is also a talented poet , and the stories are frequently punctuated by his poems and `` hums . '' Although he is humble about his slow - wittedness , he is comfortable with his creative gifts . When Owl 's house blows down in a storm , trapping Pooh and Piglet and Owl inside , Pooh encourages Piglet ( the only one small enough to do so ) to escape and rescue them all by promising that `` a respectful Pooh song '' will be written about Piglet 's feat . Later , Pooh muses about the creative process as he composes the song . Pooh is very fond of food , especially `` hunny '' but also condensed milk and other items . When he visits friends , his desire to be offered a snack is in conflict with the impoliteness of asking too directly . Though intending to give Eeyore a pot of honey for his birthday , Pooh can not resist eating the honey on his way to deliver the present , and so instead gives Eeyore `` a useful pot to put things in '' . When he and Piglet are lost in the forest during Rabbit 's attempt to `` unbounce '' Tigger , Pooh finds his way home by following the `` call '' of the honeypots from his house . Pooh makes it a habit to have `` a little something '' around eleven o'clock in the morning . As the clock in his house `` stopped at five minutes to eleven some weeks ago , '' any time can be Pooh 's snack time . Pooh is very social . After Christopher Robin , his closest friend is Piglet , and he most often chooses to spend his time with one or both of them . But he also habitually visits the other animals , often looking for a snack or an audience for his poetry as much as for companionship . His kind - heartedness means he goes out of his way to be friendly to Eeyore , visiting him and bringing him a birthday present and building him a house , despite receiving mostly disdain from Eeyore in return . Sequel An authorised sequel Return to the Hundred Acre Wood was published on 5 October 2009 . The author , David Benedictus , has developed , but not changed , Milne 's characterisations . The illustrations , by Mark Burgess , are in the style of Shepard . Another authorised sequel , The Best Bear in All the World , was published by Egmont in 2016 . The sequel consists of four short stories by four leading children 's authors , Kate Saunders , Brian Sibley , Paul Bright , and Jeanne Willis . Illustrations are by Mark Burgess . The Best Bear in All The World sees the introduction of a new character , a Penguin , which was inspired by a long - lost photograph of Milne and his son Christopher with a toy penguin . A further special story , Winnie - the - Pooh Meets the Queen , was published in 2016 to mark the 90th anniversary of Milne 's creation and the 90th birthday of Elizabeth II . It sees Winnie the Pooh meet the Queen at Buckingham Palace . Stephen Slesinger On 6 January 1930 , Stephen Slesinger purchased US and Canadian merchandising , television , recording and other trade rights to the `` Winnie - the - Pooh '' works from Milne for a $1000 advance and 66 % of Slesinger 's income , creating the modern licensing industry . By November 1931 , Pooh was a $50 million - a-year business . Slesinger marketed Pooh and his friends for more than 30 years , creating the first Pooh doll , record , board game , puzzle , US radio broadcast ( NBC ) , animation , and motion picture film . Red shirt Pooh The first time Pooh and his friends appeared in colour was 1932 , when he was drawn by Slesinger in his now - familiar red shirt and featured on an RCA Victor picture record . Parker Brothers introduced A.A. Milne 's Winnie - the - Pooh Game in 1933 , again with Pooh in his red shirt . In the 1940s , Agnes Brush created the first plush dolls with Pooh in his red shirt . Shepard had drawn Pooh with a shirt as early as the first Winnie - The - Pooh book , which was subsequently coloured red in later coloured editions . Disney ownership era ( 1966 -- present ) Main article : Winnie the Pooh ( franchise ) After Slesinger 's death in 1953 , his wife , Shirley Slesinger Lasswell , continued developing the character herself . In 1961 , she licensed rights to Walt Disney Productions in exchange for royalties in the first of two agreements between Stephen Slesinger , Inc. and Disney . The same year , A.A. Milne 's widow , Daphne Milne , also licensed certain rights , including motion picture rights , to Disney . Since 1966 , Disney has released numerous animated productions starring Winnie the Pooh and related characters . These have included theatrical featurettes , television series , and direct - to - video films , as well as the theatrical feature - length films The Tigger Movie , Piglet 's Big Movie , Pooh 's Heffalump Movie , and Winnie the Pooh . Merchandising revenue dispute Pooh videos , soft toys , and other merchandise generate substantial annual revenues for Disney . The size of Pooh stuffed toys ranges from Beanie and miniature to human - sized . In addition to the stylised Disney Pooh , Disney markets Classic Pooh merchandise which more closely resembles E.H. Shepard 's illustrations . In 1991 , Stephen Slesinger , Inc. filed a lawsuit against Disney which alleged that Disney had breached their 1983 agreement by again failing to accurately report revenue from Winnie the Pooh sales . Under this agreement , Disney was to retain approximately 98 % of gross worldwide revenues while the remaining 2 % was to be paid to Slesinger . In addition , the suit alleged that Disney had failed to pay required royalties on all commercial exploitation of the product name . Though the Disney corporation was sanctioned by a judge for destroying forty boxes of evidential documents , the suit was later terminated by another judge when it was discovered that Slesinger 's investigator had rummaged through Disney 's garbage to retrieve the discarded evidence . Slesinger appealed the termination , and on 26 September 2007 , a three - judge panel upheld the lawsuit dismissal . After the Copyright Term extension Act of 1998 , Clare Milne , Christopher Milne 's daughter , attempted to terminate any future US copyrights for Stephen Slesinger , Inc . After a series of legal hearings , Judge Florence - Marie Cooper of the US District Court in California found in favour of Stephen Slesinger , Inc. , as did the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit . On 26 June 2006 , the US Supreme Court refused to hear the case , sustaining the ruling and ensuring the defeat of the suit . On 19 February 2007 Disney lost a court case in Los Angeles which ruled their `` misguided claims '' to dispute the licensing agreements with Slesinger , Inc. were unjustified , but a federal ruling of 28 September 2009 , again from Judge Florence - Marie Cooper , determined that the Slesinger family had granted all trademark and copyright rights to Disney , although Disney must pay royalties for all future use of the characters . Both parties have expressed satisfaction with the outcome .

Soviet adaptation A postage stamp showing Piglet and Winnie - the - Pooh as they appear in the Soviet adaptation In the Soviet Union , three Winnie - the - Pooh , ( transcribed in Russian as `` Vinni Pukh '' ) ( Russian language : Винни - Пух ) stories were made into a celebrated trilogy of short films by Soyuzmultfilm ( directed by Fyodor Khitruk ) from 1969 to 1972 . Винни - Пух ( Winnie - the - Pooh , 1969 ) -- based on chapter 1 Винни - Пух идёт в гости ( Winnie - the - Pooh Pays a Visit , 1971 ) -- based on chapter 2 Винни - Пух и день забот ( Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day , 1972 ) -- based on chapters 4 and 6 . Films use Boris Zakhoder 's translation of the book . Pooh was voiced by Yevgeny Leonov . Unlike the Disney adaptations , the animators did not base their depictions of the characters on Shepard 's illustrations , creating a different look . The Soviet adaptations make extensive use of Milne 's original text , and often bring out aspects of Milne 's characters ' personalities not used in the Disney adaptations . Television Winnie - the - Pooh and his friends debuted on NBC Television in 1960 . A version of Winnie The Pooh , in which the animals were played by marionettes designed , made and operated by Bil And Cora Baird , was presented on 3 October 1960 , on NBC Television 's The Shirley Temple Show . Pooh himself is voiced by Franz Fazakas . During the 1970s the BBC children 's television show Jackanory serialised the two books , which were read by Willie Rushton .

Legacy A plaque on Winnie - the - Pooh Street ( ulica Kubusia Puchatka ) in Warsaw Winnie the Pooh has inspired multiple texts to explain complex philosophical ideas . Benjamin Hoff used Milne 's characters in The Tao of Pooh and The Te of Piglet to explain Taoism . Similarly , Frederick Crews wrote essays about the Pooh books in abstruse academic jargon in The Pooh Perplex and Postmodern Pooh to satirise a range of philosophical approaches . Pooh and the Philosophers by John T. Williams uses Winnie the Pooh as a backdrop to illustrate the works of philosophers including Descartes , Kant , Plato and Nietzsche . One of the best known characters in British children 's literature , a 2011 poll saw Winnie the Pooh voted onto the list of icons of England . Forbes magazine ranked Pooh the most valuable fictional character in 2002 , with merchandising products alone generating more than $5.9 billion that year . In 2005 , Pooh generated $6 billion , a figure surpassed by only Mickey Mouse . In 2006 , Pooh received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame , marking the 80th birthday of Milne 's creation . The bear is such a popular character in Poland that a Warsaw street is named for him , Ulica Kubusia Puchatka . There is also a street named after him in Budapest ( Micimackó utca ) . In music , Kenny Loggins wrote the song `` House at Pooh Corner '' , which was originally recorded by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band . Loggins later rewrote the song as `` Return to Pooh Corner '' , featuring on the album of the same name in 1991 . In Italy , a pop band took their name from Winnie , and were titled Pooh . In Estonia there is a punk / metal band called Winny Puhh . In the `` sport '' of Poohsticks , competitors drop sticks into a stream from a bridge and then wait to see whose stick will cross the finish line first . Though it began as a game played by Pooh and his friends in the book The House at Pooh Corner and later in the films , it has crossed over into the real world : a World Championship Poohsticks race takes place in Oxfordshire each year . Ashdown Forest in England where the Pooh stories are set is a popular tourist attraction , and includes the wooden Pooh Bridge where Pooh and Piglet invented Poohsticks . The Oxford University Winnie the Pooh Society was founded by undergraduates in 1982 . In the Peoples Republic of China images of Pooh are censored as internet memes comparing Chinese president Xi Jinping to Pooh became popular in mid-2017 .

Motor neuron - wikipedia Motor neuron Jump to : navigation , search Motor neuron Micrograph of the hypoglossal nucleus showing motor neurons with their characteristic coarse Nissl substance ( `` tigroid '' cytoplasm ) . H&E - LFB stain . Details Location Ventral horn of the spinal cord , some cranial nerve nuclei Shape Projection neuron Function Excitatory projection ( to NMJ ) Neurotransmitter UMN to LMN : glutamate ; LMN to NMJ : ACh Presynaptic connections Primary motor cortex via the Corticospinal tract Postsynaptic connections Muscle fibers and other neurons Identifiers MeSH D009046 NeuroLex ID nifext_103 TA A14. 2.00. 021 FMA 5867 Anatomical terms of neuroanatomy ( edit on Wikidata ) A motor neuron ( or motoneuron ) is a neuron whose cell body is located in the motor cortex , brainstem or the spinal cord , and whose axon ( fiber ) projects to the spinal cord or outside of the spinal cord to directly or indirectly control effector organs , mainly muscles and glands . There are two types of motor neuron -- upper motor neurons and lower motor neurons . Axons from upper motor neurons synapse onto interneurons in the spinal cord and occasionally directly onto lower motor neurons . The axons from the lower motor neurons are efferent nerve fibers that carry signals from the spinal cord to the effectors . Types of lower motor neurons are alpha motor neurons , beta motor neurons , and gamma motor neurons . The term ' motor neuron ' is usually restricted to the lower motor neurons , the efferent nerves that directly innervate muscles . A single motor neuron may innervate many muscle fibres and a muscle fibre can undergo many action potentials in the time taken for a single muscle twitch . As a result , if an action potential arrives before a twitch has completed , the twitches can superimpose on one another , either through summation or a tetanic contraction . In summation , the muscle is stimulated repetitively such that additional action potentials coming from the somatic nervous system arrive before the end of the twitch . The twitches thus superimpose on one another , leading to a force greater than that of a single twitch . A tetanic contraction is caused by constant , very high frequency stimulation - the action potentials come at such a rapid rate that individual twitches are indistinguishable , and tension rises smoothly eventually reaching a plateau .

In the neural tube cells are specified to either the rostral - caudal axis or ventral - dorsal axis . The axons of motor neurons begin to appear in the fourth week of development from the ventral region of the ventral - dorsal axis ( the basal plate ) . This homeodomain is known as the motor neural progenitor domain ( pMN ) . Transcription factors genes here include the Pax6 , OLIG2 , Nkx6. 1 , and Nkx6. 2 factors , which are regulated by sonic hedgehog ( Shh ) . The OLIG2 gene being the most important due to its role in promoting Ngn2 expression , a gene that causes cell cycle exiting as well as promoting further transcription factors associated with motor neuron development . Further specification of motor neurons occurs when retinoic acid , fibroblast growth factor , Wnts , and TGFb , are integrated into the various Hox transcription factors . There are 13 Hox transcription factors and - along with the signals - these determine whether a motor neuron will be more rostral or caudal in character . In the spinal column Hox 4 - 11 sort motor neurons to one of the five motor columns . These columns are further explained in the table below . Motor Columns of Spinal Cord Motor Column Location in Spinal Cord Target Median Motor Column Present entire length Axial muscles Hypaxial Motor Column Thoracic Region Body wall muscles Preganglionic Motor Column Thoracic Region Sympathetic ganglion Laterl Motor Column Brachial and Lumbar region ( both regions are further divided into medial and lateral domains ) Muscles of the limbs Phrenic Motor Coulmn Cervical Region Diaphragm Anatomy and Physiology ( edit ) Spinal cord tracts Location of lower motor neurons in spinal cord Upper motor neurons ( edit ) Upper motor neurons originate in the motor cortex located in the precentral gyrus . The cells that make up the primary motor cortex are Betz cells , which are a type of pyramidal cell . The axons of these cells descend from the cortex to form the corticospinal tract . White matter Tract ( edit ) White matter tracts are bundles of axons and serve as means to propagate nerve impulses on a large scale . These are found in the spinal cord and appear white from the myelin surrounding axons . While these tracts exist for both efferent and afferent nerves , efferent nerves will carry signals down the spinal cord toward their effector target . These tracts also serve as the place of origin for lower motor neurons . There are seven major white matter motor tracts to be found in the spinal cord and are listed below : Lateral Corticospinal Tract Rubrospinal Tract Lateral Reticulospinal Tract Vestibulospinal tract Medial Reticulospinal Tract Tectospinal Tract Anterior Corticospinal Tract Lower motor neurons ( edit ) Lower motor neurons are those that originate in the spinal cord and directly or indirectly innervate effector targets . The target of these neurons varies , but in the somatic nervous system the target will be some sort of muscle fiber . There are three primary categories lower motor neurons , which can be further divided in sub-categories . According to their targets , motor neurons are classified into three broad categories : Somatic motor neurons Special visceral motor neurons General visceral motor neurons Somatic motor neurons ( edit ) Somatic motor neurons originate in the central nervous system , project their axons to skeletal muscles ( such as the muscles of the limbs , abdominal , and intercostal muscles ) , which are involved in locomotion . The three types of these neurons are the alpha efferent neurons , beta efferent neurons , and gamma efferent neurons . They are called efferent to indicate the flow of information from the central nervous system ( CNS ) to the periphery . Alpha motor neurons innervate extrafusal muscle fibers , which are the main force - generating component of a muscle . Their cell bodies are in the ventral horn of the spinal cord and they are sometimes called ventral horn cells . A single motor neuron may synapse with 150 muscle fibers on average . The motor neuron and all of the muscle fibers to which it connects is a motor unit . Motor units are split up into 3 categories : Main Article : Motor Unit Slow ( S ) motor units stimulate small muscle fibers , which contract very slowly and provide small amounts of energy but are very resistant to fatigue , so they are used to sustain muscular contraction , such as keeping the body upright . They gain their energy via oxidative means and hence require oxygen . They are also called red fibers . Fast fatiguing ( FF ) motor units stimulate larger muscle groups , which apply large amounts of force but fatigue very quickly . They are used for tasks that require large brief bursts on energy , such as jumping or running . They gain their energy via glycolytic means and hence do n't require oxygen . They are called white fibers . Fast fatigue - resistant motor units stimulate moderate - sized muscles groups that do n't react as fast as the FF motor units , but can be sustained much longer ( as implied by the name ) and provide more force than S motor units . These use both oxidative and glycolytic means to gain energy . In addition to voluntary skeletal muscle contraction , alpha motor neurons also contribute to muscle tone , the continuous force generated by noncontracting muscle to oppose stretching . When a muscle is stretched , sensory neurons within the muscle spindle detect the degree of stretch and send a signal to the CNS . The CNS activates alpha motor neurons in the spinal cord , which cause extrafusal muscle fibers to contract and thereby resist further stretching . This process is also called the stretch reflex . Beta motor neurons innervate intrafusal muscle fibers of muscle spindles , with collaterals to extrafusal fibres . There are two types of beta motor neurons : Slow Contracting - These innervate extrafusal fibers . Fast Contracting - These innervate intrafusal fibers . Gamma motor neurons innervate intrafusal muscle fibers found within the muscle spindle . They regulate the sensitivity of the spindle to muscle stretching . With activation of gamma neurons , intrafusal muscle fibers contract so that only a small stretch is required to activate spindle sensory neurons and the stretch reflex . There are two types of gamma motor neurons : Dynamic - These focus on Bag1 fibers and enhance dynamic sensitivity . Static - These focus on Bag2 fibers and enhance stretch sensitivity . Regulatory factors of lower motor Neurons Size Principle -- this relates to the of the soma of the motor neuron . This restricts larger neurons to receive a larger excitatory signal in order to stimulate the muscle fibers it innervates . By reducing unnecessary muscle fiber recruitment , the body is able to optimize energy consumption . Persistent Inward Current ( PIC ) -- recent animal study research has shown that constant flow of ions such as calcium and sodium through channels in the soma and dendrites influence the synaptic input . An alternate way to think of this is that the post-synaptic neuron is being primed before receiving an impulse . After Hyper - polarization ( AHP ) -- we are all familiar with the idea of hyperpolarization after an action potential . A trend has been identified that shows slow motor neurons to have more intense AHPs for a longer duration . One way to remember this is that slow muscle fibers can contract for loner , so it makes since that their corresponding motor neurons fire at a slower rate . Neuromuscular junction ( edit ) The interface between a motor neuron and muscle fiber is a specialized synapse called the neuromuscular junction . Upon adequate stimulation , the motor neuron releases a flood of acetylcholine ( Ach ) neurotransmitters from the axon terminals from synaptic vesicles bind with the plasma membrane . The acetylcholine molecules bind to postsynaptic receptors found within the motor end plate . Once two acetylcholine receptors have been bound , an ion channel is opened and sodium ions are allowed to flow into the cell . The influx of sodium into the cell causes depolarization and triggers a muscle action potential . T tubules of the sarcolemma are then stimulated to elicit calcium ion release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum . It is this chemical release that causes the target muscle fiber to contract . In invertebrates , depending on the neurotransmitter released and the type of receptor it binds , the response in the muscle fiber could be either excitatory or inhibitory . For vertebrates , however , the response of a muscle fiber to a neurotransmitter can only be excitatory , in other words , contractile . Muscle relaxation and inhibition of muscle contraction in vertebrates is obtained only by inhibition of the motor neuron itself . Muscle innervation may eventually play a role in the maturation of motor activity . This is how muscle relaxants work by acting on the motor neurons that innervate muscles ( by decreasing their electrophysiological activity ) or on cholinergic neuromuscular junctions , rather than on the muscles themselves . Special visceral motor neurons ( edit ) These are also known as branchial motor neurons , which are involved in facial expression , mastication , phonation , and swallowing . Associated cranial nerves are the oculomotor , abducens , trochlear , and hypoglossal nerves . Branch of NS Position Neurotransmitter Somatic n / a Acetylcholine Parasympathetic Preganglionic Acetylcholine Parasympathetic Ganglionic Acetylcholine Sympathetic Preganglionic Acetylcholine Sympathetic Ganglionic Norepinephrine * * Except fibers to sweat glands and certain blood vessels Motor neuron neurotransmitters General visceral motor neurons ( edit ) These motor neurons indirectly innervate cardiac muscle and smooth muscles of the viscera ( the muscles of the arteries ) : they synapse onto neurons located in ganglia of the autonomic nervous system ( sympathetic and parasympathetic ) , located in the peripheral nervous system ( PNS ) , which themselves directly innervate visceral muscles ( and also some gland cells ) . In consequence : the motor command of skeletal and branchial muscles is monosynaptic ( involving only one motor neuron , respectively , somatic and branchial , which synapses onto the muscle ) . the command of visceral muscles is disynaptic ( involving two neurons : the general visceral motor neuron located in the CNS , which synapses onto a ganglionic neuron , located in the PNS , which synapses onto the muscle ) . All vertebrate motor neurons are cholinergic , that is , they release the neurotransmitter acetylcholine . Parasympathetic ganglionic neurons are also cholinergic , whereas most sympathetic ganglionic neurons are noradrenergic , that is , they release the neurotransmitter noradrenaline .

Contents ( hide ) 1 Plot 2 Release date 3 Reception 4 References Plot ( edit ) After many frustrations , Greg Heffley 's parents decide to skip Christmas and travel by plane to Isla De Corales , the hotel they stayed at while on their honeymoon much to Greg 's dismay . On Christmas Eve they drive to the airport , but are delayed by a series of mishaps . They encounter holiday traffic but arrive at the airport . As they fail to unload in time at the drop off zone , Frank and Greg have to return later with the luggage . Greg steps in a slush puddle and they end up missing the shuttle . In the airport , the family 's suitcases are too heavy , so they stuff some clothes into their carry on baggage . They enter the line for security , but a child unclips a barrier separating the lines , and everybody gets scrambled . They go through security and are delayed again by somebody who has to remove all of his piercings . Manny then gets his toy stuck in an escalator , delaying them more . As a result , the family panic , grab some luggage and dash to the gate . It turns out their flight is delayed . Greg goes to dry his sock but destroys it while doing so . He hears that the flight is overbooked , and tries to stop his family boarding in exchange of a hotel stay and $300 ( soon $500 ) , but is stopped by Susan . A replacement crew for the plane is required and they finally board . Greg is first impressed by the plane 's first class seats before he discovers that he has to sit in economy . However , Frank collected enough air miles because of his business trips to sit in first class . In economy , Mom , Rodrick , and Manny are seated in the right row . Greg finds out he has three seats to himself , until a couple with a baby arrives late on board . The couple sit on either side of him with their baby . Greg becomes paranoid when he watches the plane 's safety video and begins to ask questions about unfortunate events . Greg is very aggravated of the other passengers because most are n't watching the safety video . Mid flight , he feels boxed in when the people in front recline and the person behind slides his feet on Greg 's armrest . Greg tries to recline his chair too but when he asks the flight attendant how , he learns that he ca n't because the row behind him is an emergency exit . He tries to swap seats with Frank but Rodrick beats him to it . He stays in the bathroom because the couple 's baby started to get annoying , but then he returns to his seat after experiencing turbulence . He somehow was able to sleep for the rest of the flight . As they land on Christmas Day , Greg begins to understand why the family came there . They touch down and began to head to the resort , Isla de Corales . He is even excited by the activities the resort offer which he sees on the bus . However , Frank and Susan are disappointed that the resort has since changed , and it is now split with a family side ( the Mild Side ) and a couple side ( the Wild Side ) . The family also discovers that they got the wrong luggage that is locked , and their luggage was sent back home . They only have the clothes they put in their carry on luggage . They attempt to buy some new clothes , but Frank wo n't buy them as they are too expensive . The family goes to explore the resort and end up at the pool . The Director of Fun shows up , however , and gets everybody moving . Greg is forced to take part in two games . After this , Greg sees an iguana by the pool and is worried , so the family goes to get some lunch . Greg and his family try to eat outside ; however , too many birds and bugs keep ruining their meals . Frank contracts a stomach bug from his water , so they head back to the suite . The next day , Greg uses the shower which is outside . As he puts on his slipper , a giant spider falls out . Greg has an intense fear of spiders . As a result , he calls room service , but the lady who answers says that there is a do not disturb sign on the door knob . The lady says he has to order food for someone to come . The waiter who arrives also is scared of spiders . Eventually , they manage to trap the spider and flush it down the toilet . The family heads to the beach without Frank as he is still at the suite . He returns , however and reveals that he found the same spider that Greg attempted to flush away on the toilet seat . Manny develops an obsession with collecting sea creatures in his bucket so he can have them as pets . Unfortunately , he is upset by Susan when she returns them , so they go to the activities . Before this , they have to find Rodrick , who has been in the teen zone helping a girl get her lip ring out of the volleyball net . They first try the banana boat , but this is ruined when a kid using a water trampoline lands on and bursts their float . They get hungry , so they go to the golf clubhouse which turns them down as they are not following the dress code . They go to the swim - up bar , and learn of a monkey which has been returning there for drinks every day . They are chased away when Manny finds the TV remote , changes the channel to his favorite cartoons , and throws the remote in the water . Greg goes to the arcade , and the family regroup later to find Rodrick . The same girl he helped earlier is now his girlfriend . In the evening , they go to the beach bonfire and go to see turtles hatching . Just as they are prepared to leave , they begin to hatch , but they lose their way to the sea as people are using the flashes on their phones to take photos . The next day , Susan goes to the spa and Frank goes to the gym . Rodrick then goes back to the teen zone . Greg takes Manny to the Toddler 's Cabana , but Manny gets out of going there because he is not potty trained . He puts Manny in the pool , but has to get him out again later . Susan booked a charter cruise for the whole family due in thirty minutes . On the cruise ( which turns out to be a regular boat ) , the captain offers them to go scuba diving . Greg is freaked out by all of the deadly animals , including the venomous box jellyfish , and only stays in for one photo . As he surfaces , he swallows a big gulp of water . He thinks a seahorse was in there too : so they return to the resort to see a doctor . Frank and Susan were both seasick , so they just return to the poolside . They see the Director of Fun , who keeps circling their chair , but suddenly stops at a plastic bag in Manny 's bucket . It is actually a box jellyfish which Manny smuggled from the scuba diving , in which the Director of Fun launches it back into the pool in fear . Because the pool workers could n't find the jellyfish , they have to drain the pool . They escape in the commotion , and notice Rodrick is n't there . He had been left in the sea where they went scuba diving and had extreme sunburn . They return to the suite and decide to spend their last few days outdoors . The next day , Greg goes to the tennis court in hopes of learning how to play tennis . Unfortunately , it was just a cage full of children with a ball machine and tennis balls . It turns into a free - for - all , which stops suddenly when a kid recognizes Greg as the family who brought a box jellyfish to the poolside . He tries to tell them that it was Manny 's fault , but they throw tennis balls at him . He quickly escapes the cage and goes back to the suite with his family . They were out of things to do and want to leave the resort early ; however , Frank refuses to leave until he gets a decent meal . Manny discovers that the suitcase they got on mistake fell and broke and also has the clothes they need to get in the clubhouse . They each wear some of the clothes in there ; they first head to the clubhouse , and then the putting green for golf . However , they are spotted by a security guard , who escorts them out of the green . A family had reported them for wearing their missing clothes . They attempted a failed getaway with a golf cart , and are ultimately sent back to the hotel to return the clothes . They were also ejected from the hotel for theft , so they were forced to stay overnight at the airport hotel . The next day , Susan refuses to leave the resort to leave on a high note . So they sneak in . They skip the pool and then find Rodrick 's girlfriend with a man named Rodrigo . They go back to the beach , and scavenge for food by distracting others and then eating their food . They go to take one more photo , but are spotted by the family who they took clothes from . The Heffleys try to escape the resort . Greg heads for the beach and windsurfs away . He gets stuck in the dolphin swimming area , but is chased back to shore by security . He ends up on the Wild Side ( couple ) of the beach and lands on a nude beach . Greg runs for the wall dividing the two sides ; just where his family was passing . Greg tries to climb over the wall , but it is destroyed by a stampede of Mild Side tourists . The family escapes unnoticed and heads to the airport . When they get back , Greg wants to show Rowley where he went to for his Christmas holidays . He discovers there that he and his family has been banned from the resort for the rest of their lives and are wanted . On Isla de Corales ' website , there is a picture of Greg 's family on the banana boat with words in Spanish : `` ¡ Atención ! Póngase en contacto con Isla de Corales si conoce la identidad de las personas en la foto de arriba '' meaning `` Attention ! Contact Isla de Corales if you know the identities of the people in the picture above .

The locations of best auscultation for each heart valve are labeled with `` M '' , `` T '' , `` A '' , and `` P '' . First heart sound : caused by atrioventricular valves - Mitral ( M ) and Tricuspid ( T ) . Second heart sound caused by semilunar valves -- Aortic ( A ) and Pulmonary / Pulmonic ( P ) . Diagram showing relations of opened heart to front of thoracic wall . Ant . Anterior segment of tricuspid valve . A O. Aorta . A.P. Anterior papillary muscle . In . Innominate artery . L.C.C. Left common carotid artery . L.S. Left subclavian artery . L.V. Left ventricle . P.A. Pulmonary artery . R.A. Right atrium . R.V. Right ventricle . V.S. Ventricular septum . Heart sounds are the noises generated by the beating heart and the resultant flow of blood through it . Specifically , the sounds reflect the turbulence created when the heart valves snap shut . In cardiac auscultation , an examiner may use a stethoscope to listen for these unique and distinct sounds that provide important auditory data regarding the condition of the heart . In healthy adults , there are two normal heart sounds , often described as a lub and a dub ( or dup ) , that occur in sequence with each heartbeat . These are the first heart sound ( S ) and second heart sound ( S ) , produced by the closing of the atrioventricular valves and semilunar valves , respectively . In addition to these normal sounds , a variety of other sounds may be present including heart murmurs , adventitious sounds , and gallop rhythms S and S . Heart murmurs are generated by turbulent flow of blood , which may occur inside or outside the heart . Murmurs may be physiological ( benign ) or pathological ( abnormal ) . Abnormal murmurs can be caused by stenosis restricting the opening of a heart valve , resulting in turbulence as blood flows through it . Abnormal murmurs may also occur with valvular insufficiency ( regurgitation ) , which allows backflow of blood when the incompetent valve closes with only partial effectiveness . Different murmurs are audible in different parts of the cardiac cycle , depending on the cause of the murmur . Contents ( hide ) 1 Primary heart sounds 2 Extra heart sounds 3 Murmurs 3.1 Effects of breathing 3.2 Interventions that change murmurs 4 Other abnormal sounds 5 Surface anatomy 6 Recording heart sounds 7 See also 8 Notes and references 9 External links Primary heart sounds ( edit ) Normal heart sounds are associated with heart valves closing : S ( edit ) The first heart sound , or S , forms the `` lub '' of `` lub - dub '' and is composed of components M ( mitral valve closure ) and T ( tricuspid valve closure ) . Normally M precedes T slightly . It is caused by the closure of the atrioventricular valves , i.e. tricuspid and mitral ( bicuspid ) , at the beginning of ventricular contraction , or systole . When the ventricles begin to contract , so do the papillary muscles in each ventricle . The papillary muscles are attached to the cusps or leaflets of the tricuspid and mitral valves via chordae tendineae ( heart strings ) . When the papillary muscles contract , the chordae tendineae become tense and thereby prevent the backflow of blood into the lower pressure environment of the atria . The chordae tendineae act a bit like the strings on a parachute , and allow the leaflets of the valve to balloon up into the atria slightly , but not so much as to evert the cusp edges and allow back flow of blood . It is the pressure created from ventricular contraction that closes the valve , not the papillary muscles themselves . The contraction of the ventricle begins just prior to AV valves closing and prior to the semilunar valves opening . The sudden tensing of the chordae tendineae and the squeezing of the ventricles against closed semilunar valves , sends blood rushing back toward the atria , and the parachute - like valves catch the rush of blood in their leaflets causing the valve to snap shut . The S1 sound results from reverberation within the blood associated with the sudden block of flow reversal by the valves . The delay of T1 even more than normally causes the split S1 which is heard in a right bundle branch blockage . The second heart sound , or S , forms the `` dub '' of `` lub - dub '' and is composed of components A ( aortic valve closure ) and P ( pulmonary valve closure ) . Normally A precedes P especially during inspiration where a split of S can be heard . It is caused by the closure of the semilunar valves ( the aortic valve and pulmonary valve ) at the end of ventricular systole and the beginning of ventricular diastole . As the left ventricle empties , its pressure falls below the pressure in the aorta . Aortic blood flow quickly reverses back toward the left ventricle , catching the pocket - like cusps of the aortic valve , and is stopped by aortic valve closure . Similarly , as the pressure in the right ventricle falls below the pressure in the pulmonary artery , the pulmonary valve closes . The S sound results from reverberation within the blood associated with the sudden block of flow reversal . Splitting of S2 , also known as physiological split , normally occurs during inhalation because the decrease in intrathoracic pressure increases the time needed for pulmonary pressure to exceed that of the right ventricular pressure . A widely split S2 can be associated with several different cardiovascular conditions , including left bundle branch block , pulmonary stenosis , and atrial septal defect . Extra heart sounds ( edit ) The rarer extra heart sounds form gallop rhythms and are heard in both normal and abnormal situations . Main article : Third heart sound Rarely , there may be a third heart sound also called a protodiastolic gallop , ventricular gallop , or informally the `` Kentucky '' gallop as an onomatopoeic reference to the rhythm and stress of S1 followed by S2 and S3 together ( S1 = Ken ; S2 = tuck ; S3 = y ) . `` lub - dub - ta '' or `` slosh - ing - in '' If new , indicates heart failure or volume overload . It occurs at the beginning of diastole after S2 and is lower in pitch than S1 or S2 as it is not of valvular origin . The third heart sound is benign in youth , some trained athletes , and sometimes in pregnancy but if it re-emerges later in life it may signal cardiac problems , such as a failing left ventricle as in dilated congestive heart failure ( CHF ) . S3 is thought to be caused by the oscillation of blood back and forth between the walls of the ventricles initiated by blood rushing in from the atria . The reason the third heart sound does not occur until the middle third of diastole is probably that during the early part of diastole , the ventricles are not filled sufficiently to create enough tension for reverberation . It may also be a result of tensing of the chordae tendineae during rapid filling and expansion of the ventricle . In other words , an S3 heart sound indicates increased volume of blood within the ventricle . An S3 heart sound is best heard with the bell - side of the stethoscope ( used for lower frequency sounds ) . A left - sided S3 is best heard in the left lateral decubitus position and at the apex of the heart , which is normally located in the 5th left intercostal space at the midclavicular line . A right - sided S3 is best heard at the lower - left sternal border . The way to distinguish between a left and right - sided S3 is to observe whether it increases in intensity with inhalation or exhalation . A right - sided S3 will increase on inhalation , while a left - sided S3 will increase on exhalation . S3 can be a normal finding in young patients but is generally pathologic over the age of 40 . The most common cause of pathologic S3 is congestive heart failure . Main article : Fourth heart sound S4 when audible in an adult is called a presystolic gallop or atrial gallop . This gallop is produced by the sound of blood being forced into a stiff or hypertrophic ventricle . `` ta - lub - dub '' or `` a-stiff - wall '' It is a sign of a pathologic state , usually a failing or hypertrophic left ventricle , as in systemic hypertension , severe valvular aortic stenosis , and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy . The sound occurs just after atrial contraction at the end of diastole and immediately before S1 , producing a rhythm sometimes referred to as the `` Tennessee '' gallop where S4 represents the `` Ten - '' syllable . It is best heard at the cardiac apex with the patient in the left lateral decubitus position and holding his breath . The combined presence of S3 and S4 is a quadruple gallop , also known as the `` Hello - Goodbye '' gallop . At rapid heart rates , S3 and S4 may merge to produce a summation gallop , sometimes referred to as S7 . Atrial contraction must be present for production of an S4 . It is absent in atrial fibrillation and in other rhythms in which atrial contraction does not precede ventricular contraction . Murmurs ( edit ) Auscultogram from normal and abnormal heart sounds . Heart murmurs are produced as a result of turbulent flow of blood strong enough to produce audible noise . They are usually heard as a whooshing sound . The term murmur only refers to a sound believed to originate within blood flow through or near the heart ; rapid blood velocity is necessary to produce a murmur . Most heart problems do not produce any murmur and most valve problems also do not produce an audible murmur . Murmurs can be heard in many situations in adults without major congenital heart abnormalities : Regurgitation through the mitral valve is by far the most commonly heard murmur , producing a pansystolic / holosystolic murmur which is sometimes fairly loud to a practiced ear , even though the volume of regurgitant blood flow may be quite small . Yet , though obvious using echocardiography visualization , probably about 20 % of cases of mitral regurgitation do not produce an audible murmur . Stenosis of the aortic valve is typically the next most common heart murmur , a systolic ejection murmur . This is more common in older adults or in those individuals having a two - leaflet , not a three - leaflet , aortic valve . Regurgitation through the aortic valve , if marked , is sometimes audible to a practiced ear with a high quality , especially electronically amplified , stethoscope . Generally , this is a very rarely heard murmur , even though aortic valve regurgitation is not so rare . Aortic regurgitation , though obvious using echocardiography visualization , usually does not produce an audible murmur . Stenosis of the mitral valve , if severe , also rarely produces an audible , low frequency soft rumbling murmur , best recognized by a practiced ear using a high quality , especially electronically amplified , stethoscope . Other audible murmurs are associated with abnormal openings between the left ventricle and right heart or from the aortic or pulmonary arteries back into a lower pressure heart chamber . Gradations of Murmurs ( Defined based on use of an acoustic , not a high - fidelity amplified electronic stethoscope ) Grade Description Grade 1 Very faint , heard only after listener has `` tuned in '' ; may not be heard in all positions . Only heard if the patient `` bears down '' or performs the Valsalva maneuver . Grade 2 Quiet , but heard immediately after placing the stethoscope on the chest . Grade 3 Moderately loud . Grade 4 Loud , with palpable thrill ( a tremor or vibration felt on palpation ) Grade 5 Very loud , with thrill . May be heard when stethoscope is partly off the chest . Grade 6 Very loud , with thrill . May be heard with stethoscope entirely off the chest . Though several different cardiac conditions can cause heart murmurs , the murmurs can change markedly with the severity of the cardiac disease . An astute physician can sometimes diagnose cardiac conditions with some accuracy based largely on the murmur , related physical examination , and experience with the relative frequency of different heart conditions . However , with the advent of better quality and wider availability of echocardiography and other techniques , heart status can be recognized and quantified much more accurately than formerly possible with only a stethoscope , examination , and experience . Another advantage to the use of the echocardiogram is that the devices can be hand held . Effects of breathing ( edit ) Inhalation decreases intrathoracic pressure which allows more venous blood to return to the right heart ( pulling blood into the right side of the heart via a vacuum - like effect ) . Therefore , right - sided heart murmurs generally increase in intensity with inhalation . The decreased ( more negative ) intrathoracic pressure has an opposite effect on the left side of the heart , making it harder for the blood to exit into circulation . Therefore , left - sided murmurs generally decrease in intensity during inhalation . Increasing venous blood return to the right side of the heart by raising a patient 's legs to a 45 - degree while lying supine produces similar effect which occurs during inhalation . Inhalation can also produce a non-pathological split S2 which will be heard upon auscultation . With exhalation , the opposite haemodynamic changes occur : left - sided murmurs generally increase in intensity with exhalation . Interventions that change murmurs ( edit ) Main article : Heart murmur There are a number of interventions that can be performed that alter the intensity and characteristics of abnormal heart sounds . These interventions can differentiate the different heart sounds to more effectively obtain a diagnosis of the cardiac anomaly that causes the heart sound . Other abnormal sounds ( edit ) Clicks -- Heart clicks are short , high - pitched sounds that can be appreciated with modern non-invasive imaging techniques . Rubs -- The pericardial friction rub can be heard in pericarditis , an inflammation of the pericardium , the sac surrounding the heart . This is a characteristic scratching , creaking , high - pitched sound emanating from the rubbing of both layers of inflamed pericardium . It is the loudest in systole , but can often be heard at the beginning and at the end of diastole . It is very dependent on body position and breathing , and changes from hour to hour . Surface anatomy ( edit ) The aortic area , pulmonic area , tricuspid area and mitral area are areas on the surface of the chest where the heart is auscultated . Heart sounds result from reverberation within the blood associated with the sudden block of flow reversal by the valves closing . Because of this , auscultation to determine function of a valve is usually not performed at the position of the valve , but at the position to where the sound waves reverberate . Aortic valve ( to aorta ) right second intercostal space upper right sternal border Pulmonary valve ( to pulmonary trunk ) left second intercostal space upper left sternal border Erb 's point Left third intercostal space left sternal border Tricuspid valve ( to right ventricle ) left fourth , fifth intercostal spaces lower left sternal border Mitral valve ( to left ventricle ) left fifth intercostal space left midclavicular line Recording heart sounds ( edit ) Using electronic stethoscopes , it is possible to record heart sounds via direct output to an external recording device , such as a laptop or MP3 recorder . The same connection can be used to listen to the previously recorded auscultation through the stethoscope headphones , allowing for more detailed study of murmurs and other heart sounds , for general research as well as evaluation of a particular patient 's condition .

On 11 August 1947 , Quaid - i - Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah was elected unanimously as the President of the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan and the National Flag was formally approved by the Assembly . 12 August 1947 , a resolution was approved regarding officially addressing Mr. Muhammad Ali Jinnah as `` Quaid - i - Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah '' . On the same day , a special committee called the `` Committee on Fundamental Rights of Citizens and Minorities of Pakistan '' was appointed to look into and advise the Assembly on matters relating to fundamental rights of the citizens , particularly the minorities , with the aim to legislate on these issues appropriately . On 14 August 1947 , the Transfer of Power took place . Lord Mountbatten , Governor General of India , addressed the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan . The Quaid gave a reply to the address in the House , on which the principles of the State of Pakistan were laid . On 15 August 1947 , Quaid - i - Azam was sworn in as the first Governor General of Pakistan . Mian Sir Abdur Rashid , Chief Justice of Pakistan , administered oath of office from him . The Quaid remained in this position till his death i.e. 11 September 1948 . Powers ( edit ) Legislative Process Chart of National Assembly of Pakistan `` ... you are now a sovereign legislative body and you have got all the powers . It , therefore , places on you the gravest responsibility as to how you should take your decisions . '' -- Muhammad Ali Jinnah , in his presidential address to the First Constituent Assembly of Pakistan on August 11 , 1947 The Constitution which was passed unanimously by the National Assembly in April 1973 , provides a federal parliamentary system of government , with the President as the ceremonial head of the State and an elected Prime Minister as the head of the government . Under Article 50 of the Constitution the federal legislature is the bicameral Majlis - e-Shoora ( Parliament ) , which comprises the President and the two Houses , the National Assembly and the Senate . The National Assembly , Pakistan 's sovereign legislative body , makes laws for the federation under powers spelled out in the Federal Legislative List and also for subjects in the Concurrent List , as given in the fourth schedule of the Constitution . Through debates , adjournment motions , question hour , and Standing Committees , the National Assembly keeps a check on the government . It ensures that the government functions within the parameters set out in the Constitution , and does not violate the people 's fundamental rights . The Parliament scrutinizes public spending and exercises control of expenditure incurred by the government through the work of the relevant Standing Committees . The Public Accounts Committee has a special role to review the report of the Auditor General . Senate , the upper house of the Parliament , has equal representation from the federating units balancing the provincial inequality in the National Assembly , where the number of members is based on population of the provinces . The Senate 's role is to promote national cohesion and harmony , and work as a stabilizing factor of the federation . The Senate numbers a total of 104 members who serve six - year terms which are alternated so that half the senators are up for re-election by the electoral college every three years . The National Assembly consists of 332 members . The Constitution empowers the President to dissolve the National Assembly , but the Senate is not subject to dissolution . Only the Parliament can amend the Constitution , by two - thirds majority vote separately in each House . Members of National Assembly ( edit ) See also : List of Pakistan National Assembly Seats Qualifications ( edit ) The Constitution of Pakistan lists a number of requirements for members of the National Assembly in Article 62 . The constitution also details a number of disqualifications in Article 63 , which include mental instability , insolvency , criminal conviction and accepting dual - citizenship or relinquishing their Pakistani nationality , among others . Furthermore , an individual would stand disqualified if he or she is found to have opposed Pakistan 's ideology or worked against the integrity of the country , after its establishment in 1947 . Tenure ( edit ) The National Assembly is elected for a five - year term on the basis of adult franchise and one person , one vote . The tenure of a Member of the National Assembly is for the duration of the House , or sooner , in case the Member dies or resigns . The tenure of the National Assembly also comes to an end if dissolved on the advice of the Prime Minister or by the President in his discretion under the Constitution . Under the 1973 Constitution , a member of Parliament may not hold the office of the Prime Minister more than twice . In the 1990s , Benazir Bhutto and Nawaz Shareef proposed a bill to amend the 1973 constitution to allow a Member to serve a third term as Prime Minister . Speaker and Deputy Speaker ( edit ) According to The Constitution ( 1 ) After a general election , the National Assembly shall , at its first meeting and to the exclusion of any other business , elect from amongst its members a Speaker and a Deputy Speaker and , so often as the office of Speaker or Deputy Speaker becomes vacant , the Assembly shall elect another member as Speaker or , as the case may be , Deputy Speaker . ( 2 ) Before entering upon office , a member elected as Speaker or Deputy Speaker shall make before the National Assembly oath in the form set out in the Third Schedule . ( 3 ) When the office of Speaker is vacant , or the Speaker is absent or is unable to perform his functions due to any cause , the Deputy Speaker shall act as Speaker , and if , at that time , the Deputy Speaker is also absent or is unable to act as Speaker due to any cause , such member as may be determined by the rules of procedure of the Assembly shall preside at the meeting of the Assembly . ( 4 ) The Speaker or the Deputy Speaker shall not preside at a meeting of the Assembly when a resolution for his removal from office is being considered . ( 5 ) The Speaker may , by writing under his hand addressed to the President , resign his office . ( 6 ) The Deputy Speaker may , by writing under his hand addressed to the Speaker , resign his office . ( 7 ) The office of Speaker or Deputy Speaker shall become vacant if : ( a ) he resigns his office ; ( b ) he ceases to be a member of the Assembly ; ( c ) he is removed from office by a resolution of the Assembly , of which not less than seven days ' notice has been given and which is passed by the votes of the majority of the total membership of the Assembly . ( 8 ) When the National Assembly is dissolved the Speaker shall continue in his office till the person elected to fill the office by the next Assembly enters upon his office . The Speaker of the House is the presiding officer of the National Assembly . The Speaker is assisted by the Deputy Speaker . Both officers are elected from within the ranks of the National Assembly and , by current convention , are usually members of the majority party . The election of the two officers is the first matter an incoming National Assembly deals with , as mandated by the constitution . Apart from presiding over National Assembly debates , the Speaker may also assume the duties of Acting President , if the position is vacant ( in case the President as well as Chairman Senate are not available ) . The current Speaker of the House is Sardar Ayaz Sadiq and the Deputy Speaker is Murtaza Javed Abbasi , both are from the PML - N . Sessions ( edit ) The life of National Assembly is divided into sessions . It had to meet for 130 days before the First Amendment passed on 8 May 1974 in the constitution of 1973 . According to this Amendment , maximum duration between successive sessions was reduced to 90 days from 130 days , and there must be at least three sessions in a year . A session of the National Assembly is summoned by the President of Pakistan under Article 54 ( 1 ) of the Constitution . In the summoning order the President gives the date , time and place ( which is usually the Parliament House ) , for the National Assembly to meet . The date and time for the summoning of the National Assembly is immediately announced over Radio and Television . Generally , a copy of the summon is also sent to the Members at their home address . The National Assembly can also be summoned by the Speaker of National Assembly on a request made by at one - fourth of the total membership of the National Assembly . If the National Assembly is so requisitioned , it must be summoned within 14 days . Procedure ( edit ) Constitutional role ( edit ) Article 50 of the Constitution provides that the Parliament of Pakistan shall consist of President and the two Houses known as the National Assembly and the Senate . The National Assembly has an edge over the Senate by legislating exclusively on money matters . With exception to money Bills , however , both the Houses work together to carryout the basic work of the Parliament , i.e. law making . Legislative procedures ( edit ) The Bill relating to the Federal Legislative List can be originated in either House . If the House passed the Bill through majority vote , it shall be transmitted to the other House . If the other House passes it without amendment , it shall be presented to the President for assent . If the Bill , transmitted to the other House , is not passed within ninety days or rejected , it shall be considered in a joint sitting to be summoned by the President on the request of the House in which the Bill was originated . If the Bill is passed in the joint sitting , with or without amendments , by the votes of majority of the members of the two Houses , it shall be presented to the President for assent . If the Bill is presented to the President for assent , he shall assent to the Bill in not later than ten days. If it is not a Money Bill , the President may return the Bill to the Majlis - e-Shoora with a message requesting that the Bill be reconsidered and that an amendment specified in the message be considered . The Majlis - e-Shoora shall reconsider the Bill in a joint sitting. If the Bill is passed again , with or without amendment , by vote of the majority of the members present and voting , it shall be presented to the President and the President shall give his assent within ten days ; failing which such assent shall be deemed to have been given . Under the Constitution , the Parliament may also legislate for two or more Provinces by consent and request made by those Provinces . If the Federal Government proclaims State of Emergency in any province , the power to legislate about that province is vested in the Parliament . But the Bills passed by the Parliament during the State of Emergency , shall cease to be in force after the expiration of six months from the date Emergency is lifted . Nevertheless , the steps already taken under these Acts shall remain valid . Leaders ( edit ) Leader of the House ( edit ) The Leader of the House is the highest ranking representative of the majority party in National Assembly usually the Prime Minister . List of All The Prime Ministers Leader of the opposition ( edit ) The Leader of the Opposition is the highest ranking representative of the main opposition party . List of Leaders of the Opposition Committees ( edit ) While recognizing the Committee System , the committees have been empowered to go into all matters of the ministry . A matter can be remitted to a standing committee by the Speaker or the Assembly suo moto and without moving any motion . The committees have also been empowered to invite or summon before it any member or any other person having a special interest in relation to any matter under its consideration and may hear expert evidence and hold public hearing . Composition and elections ( edit ) The composition of the National Assembly is specified in Article 51 of the Constitution of Pakistan . There are a total of 332 seats in the National Assembly . Of these , 272 are filled by direct elections . In addition , the Pakistani Constitution reserves 10 seats for religious minorities and 60 seats for women , to be filled by proportional representation among parties with more than 5 % of the vote . As of 2006 , there are 72 women members in the Assembly .

Muscle relaxant - wikipedia Muscle relaxant Jump to : navigation , search This article is about skeletal muscle relaxants . For information on smooth muscle relaxants , see Antispasmodic . A muscle relaxant is a drug that affects skeletal muscle function and decreases the muscle tone . It may be used to alleviate symptoms such as muscle spasms , pain , and hyperreflexia . The term `` muscle relaxant '' is used to refer to two major therapeutic groups : neuromuscular blockers and spasmolytics . Neuromuscular blockers act by interfering with transmission at the neuromuscular end plate and have no central nervous system ( CNS ) activity . They are often used during surgical procedures and in intensive care and emergency medicine to cause temporary paralysis . Spasmolytics , also known as `` centrally acting '' muscle relaxants , are used to alleviate musculoskeletal pain and spasms and to reduce spasticity in a variety of neurological conditions . While both neuromuscular blockers and spasmolytics are often grouped together as muscle relaxants , the term is commonly used to refer to spasmolytics only . Contents ( hide ) 1 History 2 Neuromuscular blockers 3 Spasmolytics 3.1 Terminology 3.2 Clinical use 3.3 Mechanism 4 Side effects 5 See also 6 References 7 External links History ( edit ) The earliest known use of muscle relaxant drugs was by natives of the Amazon Basin in South America who used poison - tipped arrows that produced death by skeletal muscle paralysis . This was first documented in the 16th century , when European explorers encountered it . This poison , known today as curare , led to some of the earliest scientific studies in pharmacology . Its active ingredient , tubocurarine , as well as many synthetic derivatives , played a significant role in scientific experiments to determine the function of acetylcholine in neuromuscular transmission . By 1943 , neuromuscular blocking drugs became established as muscle relaxants in the practice of anesthesia and surgery . The U.S. Food and Drug Administration ( FDA ) approved the use of carisoprodol in 1959 , metaxalone in August 1962 , and cyclobenzaprine in August 1977 . Other skeletal muscle relaxants of that type used around the world come from a number of drug categories and other drugs used primarily for this indication include orphenadrine ( anticholinergic ) , chlorzoxazone , tizanidine ( clonidine relative ) , diazepam , tetrazepam and other benzodiazepines , mephenoxalone , methocarbamol , dantrolene , baclofen , Drugs once but no longer or very rarely used to relax skeletal muscles include meprobamate , barbiturates , methaqualone , glutethimide and the like ; some subcategories of opioids have muscle relaxant properties , and some are marketed in combination drugs with skeletal and / or smooth muscle relaxants such as whole opium products , some ketobemidone , piritramide and fentanyl preparations and Equagesic . Neuromuscular blockers ( edit ) Detailed view of a neuromuscular junction : 1 . Presynaptic terminal 2 . Sarcolemma 3 . Synaptic vesicle 4 . Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor 5 . Mitochondrion Main article : Neuromuscular - blocking drug Muscle relaxation and paralysis can theoretically occur by interrupting function at several sites , including the central nervous system , myelinated somatic nerves , unmyelinated motor nerve terminals , nicotinic acetylcholine receptors , the motor end plate , and the muscle membrane or contractile apparatus . Most neuromuscular blockers function by blocking transmission at the end plate of the neuromuscular junction . Normally , a nerve impulse arrives at the motor nerve terminal , initiating an influx of calcium ions , which causes the exocytosis of synaptic vesicles containing acetylcholine . Acetylcholine then diffuses across the synaptic cleft . It may be hydrolysed by acetylcholine esterase ( AchE ) or bind to the nicotinic receptors located on the motor end plate . The binding of two acetylcholine molecules results in a conformational change in the receptor that opens the sodium - potassium channel of the nicotinic receptor . This allows Na + and Ca 2 + ions to enter the cell and K + ions to leave the cell , causing a depolarization of the end plate , resulting in muscle contraction . Following depolarization , the acetylcholine molecules are then removed from the end plate region and enzymatically hydrolysed by acetylcholinesterase . Normal end plate function can be blocked by two mechanisms . Nondepolarizing agents , such as tubocurarine , block the agonist , acetylcholine , from binding to nicotinic receptors and activating them , thereby preventing depolarization . Alternatively , depolarizing agents , such as succinylcholine , are nicotinic receptor agonists which mimic Ach , block muscle contraction by depolarizing to such an extent that it desensitizes the receptor and it can no longer initiate an action potential and cause muscle contraction . Both of these classes of neuromuscular blocking drugs are structurally similar to acetylcholine , the endogenous ligand , in many cases containing two acetylcholine molecules linked end - to - end by a rigid carbon ring system , as in pancuronium ( a nondepolarizing agent ) .

Spasmolytic agents generally work by either enhancing the level of inhibition , or reducing the level of excitation . Inhibition is enhanced by mimicking or enhancing the actions of endogenous inhibitory substances , such as GABA . Terminology ( edit ) Because they may act at the level of the cortex , brain stem or spinal cord , or all three areas , they have traditionally been referred to as `` centrally acting '' muscle relaxants . However , it is now known not every agent in this class has CNS activity ( e.g. dantrolene ) , so this name is inaccurate . Most sources still use the term `` centrally acting muscle relaxant '' . According to MeSH , dantrolene is usually classified as a centrally acting muscle relaxant . The World Health Organization , in its ATC , uses the term `` centrally acting agents '' , but adds a distinct category of `` directly acting agents '' , for dantrolene . Use of this terminology dates back to at least 1973 . The term `` spasmolytic '' is also considered a synonym for antispasmodic . Clinical use ( edit ) Spasmolytics such as carisoprodol , cyclobenzaprine , metaxalone , and methocarbamol are commonly prescribed for low back pain or neck pain , fibromyalgia , tension headaches and myofascial pain syndrome . However , they are not recommended as first - line agents ; in acute low back pain , they are not more effective than paracetamol or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs ( NSAIDs ) , and in fibromyalgia they are not more effective than antidepressants . Nevertheless , some ( low - quality ) evidence suggests muscle relaxants can add benefit to treatment with NSAIDs . In general , no high - quality evidence supports their use . No drug has been shown to be better than another , and all of them have adverse effects , particularly dizziness and drowsiness . Concerns about possible abuse and interaction with other drugs , especially if increased sedation is a risk , further limit their use . A muscle relaxant is chosen based on its adverse - effect profile , tolerability , and cost . Muscle relaxants ( according to one study ) were not advised for orthopedic conditions , but rather for neurological conditions such as spasticity in cerebral palsy and multiple sclerosis . Dantrolene , although thought of primarily as a peripherally acting agent , is associated with CNS effects , whereas baclofen activity is strictly associated with the CNS . Muscle relaxants are thought to be useful in painful disorders based on the theory that pain induces spasm and spasm causes pain . However , considerable evidence contradicts this theory . In general , muscle relaxants are not approved by FDA for long - term use . However , rheumatologists often prescribe cyclobenzaprine nightly on a daily basis to increase stage 4 sleep . By increasing this sleep stage , patients feel more refreshed in the morning . Improving sleep is also beneficial for patients who have fibromyalgia . Muscle relaxants such as tizanidine are prescribed in the treatment of tension headaches . Diazepam and carisoprodol are not recommended for older adults , pregnant women , or people who suffer depression or for those with a history of drug or alcohol addiction . Mechanism ( edit ) Because of the enhancement of inhibition in the CNS , most spasmolytic agents have the side effects of sedation , drowsiness and may cause dependence with long - term use . Several of these agents also have abuse potential , and their prescription is strictly controlled . The benzodiazepines , such as diazepam , interact with the GABA receptor in the central nervous system . While it can be used in patients with muscle spasm of almost any origin , it produces sedation in most individuals at the doses required to reduce muscle tone . Baclofen is considered to be at least as effective as diazepam in reducing spasticity , and causes much less sedation . It acts as a GABA agonist at GABA receptors in the brain and spinal cord , resulting in hyperpolarization of neurons expressing this receptor , most likely due to increased potassium ion conductance . Baclofen also inhibits neural function presynaptically , by reducing calcium ion influx , and thereby reducing the release of excitatory neurotransmitters in both the brain and spinal cord . It may also reduce pain in patients by inhibiting the release of substance P in the spinal cord , as well . Clonidine and other imidazoline compounds have also been shown to reduce muscle spasms by their central nervous system activity . Tizanidine is perhaps the most thoroughly studied clonidine analog , and is an agonist at α - adrenergic receptors , but reduces spasticity at doses that result in significantly less hypotension than clonidine . Neurophysiologic studies show that it depresses excitatory feedback from muscles that would normally increase muscle tone , therefore minimizing spasticity . Furthermore , several clinical trials indicate that tizanidine has a similar efficacy to other spasmolytic agents , such as diazepam and baclofen , with a different spectrum of adverse effects . The hydantoin derivative dantrolene is a spasmolytic agent with a unique mechanism of action outside of the CNS . It reduces skeletal muscle strength by inhibiting the excitation - contraction coupling in the muscle fiber . In normal muscle contraction , calcium is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum through the ryanodine receptor channel , which causes the tension - generating interaction of actin and myosin . Dantrolene interferes with the release of calcium by binding to the ryanodine receptor and blocking the endogenous ligand ryanodine by competitive inhibition . Muscle that contracts more rapidly is more sensitive to dantrolene than muscle that contracts slowly , although cardiac muscle and smooth muscle are depressed only slightly , most likely because the release of calcium by their sarcoplasmic reticulum involves a slightly different process . Major adverse effects of dantrolene include general muscle weakness , sedation , and occasionally hepatitis . Other common spasmolytic agents include : methocarbamol , carisoprodol , chlorzoxazone , cyclobenzaprine , gabapentin , metaxalone , and orphenadrine . Side effects ( edit ) Muscle relaxants are very powerful drugs which may produce negative effects , including heart failure and paralysis . Patients most commonly report sedation as the main adverse effect of muscle relaxants . Usually , people become less alert when they are under the effects of muscle relaxant drugs . People are normally advised not to drive vehicles or operate heavy machinery while under muscle relaxants ' effects . Cyclobenzaprine produces confusion and lethargy , as well as anticholinergic side effects . When taken in excess or in combination with other substances , it may also be toxic . While the body adjusts to this medication , it is possible for patients to experience dry mouth , fatigue , lightheadedness , constipation or blurred vision . Some serious but unlikely side effects may be experienced , including mental or mood changes , possible confusion and hallucinations , and difficulty urinating . In a very few cases , very serious but rare side effects may be experienced : irregular heartbeat , yellowing of eyes or skin , fainting , abdominal pain including stomachache , nausea or vomiting , lack of appetite , seizures , dark urine , or loss of coordination . Patients taking carisoprodol for a prolonged time have reported dependence , withdrawal and abuse , although most of these cases were reported by patients who had had a history of addiction . These effects were also reported by patients who took it in combination with other drugs with abuse potential , and in fewer cases , there were reports of carisoprodol - associated abuse when used without other drugs with abuse potential . Common side effects eventually caused by metaxalone include dizziness , headache , drowsiness , nausea , irritability , nervousness , upset stomach and vomiting . Severe side effects may be experienced when consuming metaxalone , such as severe allergic reactions ( rash , hives , itching , difficulty breathing , tightness in the chest , swelling of the mouth , face , lips , or tongue ) , chills , fever , and sore throat , may require medical attention . Other severe side effects include unusual or severe tiredness or weakness , as well as yellowing of the skin or the eyes . When baclofen is administered intrathecally , it may cause CNS depression accompanied with cardiovascular collapse and respiratory failure . Tizanidine may lower blood pressure . This effect can be controlled by administering a low dose at the beginning and increasing it gradually .

Joe Burdette ( Claude Akins ) , brother of rancher Nathan Burdette , watches as a barfly ( Myron Healey ) , tosses a silver dollar into a spittoon . Presidio County , Texas , Sheriff John T. Chance ( John Wayne ) appears and kicks the spittoon away , looking at Dude with disgust . Dude is shamed by his plight and takes out his anger on Chance , knocking him out with an ax handle . Joe begins punching Dude , then shoots and kills an unarmed bystander who tries to intervene . Joe heads to his brother 's saloon , where a bloody Chance comes to arrest him for the murder of the bystander . Another patron draws his gun on Chance , but Dude shoots the gun out of the man 's hand . Joe is locked up in the local jail . Chance is willing to deputize Dude , provided he can stay sober . Both remember how good with a gun Dude used to be . Chance 's friend Pat Wheeler ( Ward Bond ) and his wagon train of supplies stop in town , with a young gunslinger , Colorado Ryan ( Ricky Nelson ) , riding guard . Inside the jail , Stumpy ( Walter Brennan ) , Chance 's game - legged deputy , keeps watch over the jail and Joe , who knows that Stumpy holds an old grudge against Joe 's wealthy and powerful brother . Joe warns his jailers that Nathan Burdette will not like how his brother is being treated . A mysterious woman nicknamed Feathers ( Angie Dickinson ) is in the saloon , playing poker . In the meantime , Dude and Chance patrol the town . Hotel owner Carlos ( Pedro Gonzalez - Gonzalez ) stops the sheriff , saying Wheeler has been talking too much about Chance needing help . In the saloon , Chance implores Wheeler to stop , as it will draw attention from the wrong people . Wheeler suggests that Colorado could be of assistance , but Colorado politely declines , saying he wants to `` mind my own business '' . Colorado also promises not to start any trouble without telling the sheriff first . Feathers leaves the poker game a winner . Chance follows her up to her room and confronts her as a card cheat , with his evidence three missing aces from the deck of cards being used in the game and a handbill indicating she is wanted for card cheating . Colorado intervenes , saying another participant in the game is the real cheat . They confront the card cheat and prove his guilt . Chance refuses to apologize to Feathers for doing his job , but is no longer in a hurry to make her leave town . As Wheeler is walking back to the hotel , he is shot dead by a Burdette man hiding in the stable . Colorado offers to help , but is angrily turned away by Chance , who says , `` You had a chance to get in this and you did n't want it . '' Chance and Dude flush out the shooter , who escapes into Nathan 's saloon after Dude wounds him . Dude believes the man has muddy boots , but everyone in the bar has clean boots . Two of Burdette 's men suggest Dude needs a drink and one throws a silver dollar into a spittoon . The bartender puts a beer on the bar , but Dude notices blood dripping into the glass from above . He turns , fires , and kills the shooter . Chance goes back to the hotel to sleep . Without his knowledge , Feathers stands guard at the door to keep him safe , then returns to her room when he awakens . Chance discovers what she did and advises that she should leave on the next stagecoach . Nathan Burdette ( John Russell ) arrives in town with his men , intent on seeing his brother Joe . Dude is standing guard and confiscating all guns . One of Burdette 's men ignores him until Dude cuts one of his horse 's reins with a single shot . Nathan agrees to turn in their guns until they leave . Carlos says Feathers will not get on the stagecoach . She tells the sheriff she does not want to leave , then gives him a kiss . He indicates if he were not in such a fix at the jail , things between them might be different . Colorado visits the jail to tell Chance the meaning of a song , `` Degüello '' , or `` The Cutthroat Song '' , that Nathan is paying men to play at his saloon . The song , reported to have been played by Antonio López de Santa Anna 's men at the siege of the Alamo , indicates that `` no quarter '' will be given to one 's enemy , no mercy . Dude is trying hard to stay sober . He is given back his guns ( the ones he had before he left town , sold by Dude , but bought back by Chance ) , as well as some clothes he left behind . The next morning , while Dude is standing guard at the town entryway , four Burdette men attack him from behind and tie him up in a stable . Others get the drop on Chance , whose rifle is just out of reach . From inside the hotel , acting on Colorado 's instructions , Feathers throws a flower pot through a window a moment after Colorado steps out on the porch , distracting the Burdette men . Colorado quickly throws Chance 's rifle to him and the two men shoot the three Burdette hands . Chance decides to have his men hole up in the jail , as it will take several more days for the United States Marshal to arrive to take Joe to the Presidio . Dude 's nerves are shot , but as he is about to take a drink , the sound of `` The Cutthroat Song '' played by Burdette 's musicians steels his resolve . He and Chance go to the hotel to round up additional supplies , but Carlos and Consuela are captured by Burdette 's men , who trick Chance into charging and falling over a rope tied at the bottom of the stairs . Dude and Feathers are unable to help . Chance is ordered to take the men to the jail to let Joe go . He is reluctant to do so , but Dude implores Chance to cooperate , saying that Stumpy is alone and has no food or water to hold out very long . The remaining Burdette men at the hotel take Dude hostage and Nathan Burdette offers to trade him later for Joe . Stumpy opens fire at the jail , holding off Burdette 's men . Chance and Colorado then take Joe to make the trade for Dude at a warehouse , leaving Stumpy behind because of his bad leg . During the trade , walking in opposite directions , Dude tackles Joe and they scuffle while a gunfight erupts . Stumpy turns up and helps even the odds . Dude overpowers Joe . The lawmen throw dynamite sticks at the warehouse where Burdette and his men are based , shooting the sticks to explode them . After a few explosions rock the warehouse , the criminals surrender . All is quiet in town as Chance gets reacquainted with Feathers , who models a skimpy new costume she will be wearing in her new job singing at the hotel . After a pair of sheer tights comes floating from a window to the street , a delighted Stumpy retrieves it , but Dude cautions him to mind his own business .

Chance Dean Martin as Dude Ricky Nelson as Colorado / Ryan Angie Dickinson as Feathers Walter Brennan as Stumpy Ward Bond as Pat Wheeler John Russell as Nathan Burdette Pedro Gonzalez Gonzalez as Carlos Robante Estelita Rodriguez as Consuela Robante Claude Akins as Joe Burdette Joseph Shimada as Burt Malcolm Atterbury and Harry Carey Jr. also receive a screen credit in the film 's opening , but their scenes were deleted from the final film . Production ( edit ) Ricky Nelson performing the song `` Get Along Home , Cindy '' in Rio Bravo Exteriors for the film were shot at Old Tucson Studios , just outside Tucson . Filming took place in the summer of 1958 , and the movie 's credits gave 1958 as the year of production , although the film was not released until 1959 . Rio Bravo is generally regarded as one of Hawks ' best , and is notable for its long opening scene which contains no dialogue . The film received favorable reviews , and was successful , taking in over US $ 5.5 million . The musical score was composed by Dimitri Tiomkin . His score includes the hauntingly ominous `` El Degüello '' theme , which is heard several times . The Colorado character identifies the tune as `` The Cutthroat Song '' . He relates that the song was played on the orders of General Antonio López de Santa Anna to the Texans holed up in the Alamo , to signify that no quarter would be given to them . The tune was used the following year in Wayne 's film , The Alamo . Composer Ennio Morricone recalled that director Sergio Leone asked him to write `` Dimitri Tiomkin music '' for A Fistful of Dollars . The trumpet theme is similar to Tiomkin 's `` Degüello '' ( the Italian title of Rio Bravo was Un dollaro d'onore , A Dollar of Honor ) . Because the film starred a crooner , Martin , and a teen idol , Nelson , Hawks included three songs in the soundtrack . Before the big showdown , in the jail house , Martin sings `` My Rifle , My Pony , and Me '' ( which contained new lyrics to a Tiomkin tune that appeared in Red River ) accompanied by Nelson , after which Nelson sings a brief version of `` Get Along Home , Cindy '' , accompanied by Martin and Brennan . Over the closing credits , Martin , backed by the Nelson Riddle Orchestra , sings a specially composed song , `` Rio Bravo '' , written by Tiomkin with lyrics by Paul Francis Webster . Nelson later paid homage to both the film and his character , Colorado , by including the song `` Restless Kid '' on his 1959 LP , Ricky Sings Again . Members of the Western Writers of America chose `` My Rifle , My Pony , and Me '' as one of the Top 100 Western songs of all time . A brief clip from Rio Bravo was among the archive footage later incorporated into the opening sequence of Wayne 's last film , The Shootist , to illustrate the backstory of Wayne 's character . High Noon debate ( edit ) The film was made as a response to High Noon , which is sometimes thought to be an allegory for blacklisting in Hollywood , as well as a critique of McCarthyism . Wayne would later call High Noon `` un-American '' and say he did not regret helping run the writer , Carl Foreman , out of the country . Director Howard Hawks went on the record to criticize High Noon by saying , `` I did n't think a good sheriff was going to go running around town like a chicken with his head cut off asking for help , and finally his Quaker wife had to save him . '' According to film historian Emanuel Levy , Wayne and Hawks teamed up deliberately to rebut High Noon by telling a somewhat similar story their own way : portraying a hero who does not show fear or inner conflict and who never repudiates his commitment to public duty , while only allying himself with capable people , despite offers of help from many other characters . In Rio Bravo , Chance is surrounded by allies -- a deputy who is brave and good with a gun , despite recovering from alcoholism ( Dude ) , a young untried but self - assured gunfighter ( Colorado ) , a limping `` crippled '' old man who is doggedly loyal ( Stumpy ) , a Mexican innkeeper ( Carlos ) , his wife ( Consuela ) , and an attractive young woman ( Feathers ) -- and repeatedly turns down aid from anyone he does not think is capable of helping him , though in the final shootout they come to help him anyway . `` Who 'll turn up next ? '' Wayne asks amid the gunfire , to which Colorado replies : `` Maybe the girl with another flower pot . '' Reception ( edit ) In the United Kingdom , Rio Bravo was not originally even reviewed for Sight & Sound ; in August 1976 , Leslie Halliwell gave the film two out of four stars , describing it as a `` cheerfully overlong and slow - moving Western '' that was nevertheless `` very watchable for those with time to spare '' . The film was taken more seriously by independent British critics such as Robin Wood , who rated it as his top film of all time and wrote a book on it in 2003 for the British Film Institute , publishers of Sight & Sound . It now has a 100 % Rotten Tomatoes rating and was the second highest - ranking Western in the 2012 Sight & Sound critics ' poll of the greatest films ever made . In 2008 , the American Film Institute nominated this film for its Top 10 Western Films list . Remakes and inspirations ( edit ) Remakes ( edit ) Howard Hawks went on to make two loose variations of Rio Bravo , on both occasions under a different title . Both of these remakes were directed by Hawks , both starred John Wayne , and in each case , the script was written by Leigh Brackett . All involve lawmen working against an entrenched criminal element , partially by `` holing up '' in their jailhouses . The first remake , El Dorado , was filmed in 1966 , but its release was held up by Paramount until the late summer of 1967 . In this film , Robert Mitchum played the Dean Martin role , Arthur Hunnicutt the Walter Brennan character , and James Caan the Ricky Nelson role . Hawks again named the Nelson / Caan character after a state ( in this case , Mississippi ) and in a wry , humorous twist on the original film , Hawks made him inept with firearms , but skilled with a knife . The second remake , Rio Lobo , was made in 1970 with a plot much further off the original mold , starting with the absence of a lawman - turned - drunkard character . This began with a Confederate train robbery of a Union gold shipment during the American Civil War , then moved to a postwar Texas county thoroughly controlled by a rich , arrogant rancher . The heroes , with the exception of an old man similar to Brennan and Hunnicutt 's characters in the previous pictures ( Jack Elam here ) , were complete outsiders . Along with Wayne and Elam , this movie starred Mexican film star Jorge Rivero ( as Frenchie ) , Christopher Mitchum ( Robert Mitchum 's son ) , and Jennifer O'Neill . Inspirations ( edit ) Feathers ' dialogue was occasionally inspired by the character of `` Slim '' ( Lauren Bacall ) in the 1944 To Have and Have Not , as when , after the first kiss , she says : `` It 's better when two people do it , '' recalling the phrase `` It 's even better when you help ; '' and again later when she says , `` I 'm hard to get -- you 're going to have to say you want me , '' recalling Slim 's `` I 'm hard to get , Steve -- all you have to do is ask me . '' L'homme à l'étoile d'argent ( The Man with the Silver Star ) , a 1969 album from the French comics series Lt. Blueberry was directly inspired by Rio Bravo . The plot is virtually the same . Blueberry plays the role of sheriff John T. Chance ; McClure , a whiskey - adoring old man , combines the roles of Dude and Stumpy ; Dusty plays the role of Colorado ; Miss March , the teacher , plays the role of a less morally challenged Feathers ; and instead of the Burdettes , it has the Bass brothers . John Carpenter 's 1976 film Assault on Precinct 13 , though not a remake of Rio Bravo , was inspired by the film . Carpenter borrowed some elements from the earlier film 's plot , but set it in 1970s Los Angeles . He also paid homage to the original film by using the pseudonym `` John T. Chance '' , the name of Wayne 's character , for his editing credit . This film was also remade in 2005 by Jean - Francois Richet , starring Ethan Hawke , Laurence Fishburne , Gabriel Byrne , Maria Bello , Drea de Matteo , John Leguizamo , Brian Dennehy , and Ja Rule , moving the film 's setting to Detroit . Ghosts of Mars , a 2001 film also by Carpenter , retains many of the elements that were developed in Rio Bravo and Assault on Precinct 13 , but takes place in a science - fiction setting . The Nest , a 2002 film by Florent Emilio Siri , starring Samy Naceri , Benoît Magimel , Nadia Farès , Pascal Greggory , and Sami Bouajila , is a quasi-remake of Assault on Precinct 13 . Borrachón : A Prequel to Rio Bravo , by Kevin Cullen , 2016 . This book is a prequel to the Rio Bravo story and film and provides the complete background leading up to the classic tale .

Protein biosynthesis - wikipedia Protein biosynthesis Jump to : navigation , search RNA is transcribed in the nucleus ; once completely processed , it is transported to the cytoplasm and translated by the ribosome ( shown in very pale grey behind the tRNA ) . Protein synthesis is the process whereby biological cells generate new proteins ; it is balanced by the loss of cellular proteins via degradation or export . Translation , the assembly of amino acids by ribosomes , is an essential part of the biosynthetic pathway , along with generation of messenger RNA ( mRNA ) , aminoacylation of transfer RNA ( tRNA ) , co-translational transport , and post-translational modification . Protein biosynthesis is strictly regulated at multiple steps . They are principally during transcription ( phenomena of RNA synthesis from DNA template ) and translation ( phenomena of amino acid assembly from RNA ) . The cistron DNA is transcribed into the first of a series of RNA intermediates . The last version is used as a template in synthesis of a polypeptide chain . Protein will often be synthesized directly from genes by translating mRNA . However , when a protein must be available on short notice or in large quantities , a protein precursor is produced . A proprotein is an inactive protein containing one or more inhibitory peptides that can be activated when the inhibitory sequence is removed by proteolysis during posttranslational modification . A preprotein is a form that contains a signal sequence ( an N - terminal signal peptide ) that specifies its insertion into or through membranes , i.e. , targets them for secretion . The signal peptide is cleaved off in the endoplasmic reticulum . Preproproteins have both sequences ( inhibitory and signal ) still present . In protein synthesis , a succession of tRNA molecules charged with appropriate amino acids are brought together with an mRNA molecule and matched up by base - pairing through the anti-codons of the tRNA with successive codons of the mRNA . The amino acids are then linked together to extend the growing protein chain , and the tRNAs , no longer carrying amino acids , are released . This whole complex of processes is carried out by the ribosome , formed of two main chains of RNA , called ribosomal RNA ( rRNA ) , and more than 50 different proteins . The ribosome latches onto the end of an mRNA molecule and moves along it , capturing loaded tRNA molecules and joining together their amino acids to form a new protein chain . Protein biosynthesis , although very similar , is different for prokaryotes and eukaryotes . Contents ( hide ) 1 Transcription 2 Translation 3 Events during or following protein translation 4 See also 5 References 6 External links Transcription ( edit ) Main article : Transcription ( genetics ) Diagram showing the process of transcription Phenomena of RNA synthesis from DNA template In transcription an mRNA chain is generated , with one strand of the DNA double helix in the genome as a template . This strand is called the template strand . Transcription can be divided into 3 stages : initiation , elongation , and termination , each regulated by a large number of proteins such as transcription factors and coactivators that ensure that the correct gene is transcribed . Transcription occurs in the cell nucleus , where the DNA is held . The DNA structure of the cell is made up of two helixes made up of sugar and phosphate held together by hydrogen bonds between the bases of opposite strands . The sugar and the phosphate in each strand are joined together by stronger phosphodiester covalent bonds . The DNA is `` unzipped '' ( disruption of hydrogen bonds between different single strands ) by the enzyme helicase , leaving the single nucleotide chain open to be copied . RNA polymerase reads the DNA strand from the 3 - prime ( 3 ' ) end to the 5 - prime ( 5 ' ) end , while it synthesizes a single strand of messenger RNA in the 5 ' - to - 3 ' direction . The general RNA structure is very similar to the DNA structure , but in RNA the nucleotide uracil takes the place that thymine occupies in DNA . The single strand of mRNA leaves the nucleus through nuclear pores , and migrates into the cytoplasm . The first product of transcription differs in prokaryotic cells from that of eukaryotic cells , as in prokaryotic cells the product is mRNA , which needs no post-transcriptional modification , whereas , in eukaryotic cells , the first product is called primary transcript , that needs post-transcriptional modification ( capping with 7 - methyl - guanosine , tailing with a poly A tail ) to give hnRNA ( heterogeneous nuclear RNA ) . hnRNA then undergoes splicing of introns ( noncoding parts of the gene ) via spliceosomes to produce the final mRNA . Translation ( edit ) Main article : Translation ( biology ) Diagram showing the process of translation Diagram showing the translation of mRNA and the synthesis of proteins by a ribosome Phenomena of amino acid assembly from RNA . The synthesis of proteins from RNA is known as translation . In eukaryotes , translation occurs in the cytoplasm , where the ribosomes are located . Ribosomes are made of a small and large subunit that surround the mRNA . In translation , messenger RNA ( mRNA ) is decoded to produce a specific polypeptide according to the rules specified by the trinucleotide genetic code . This uses an mRNA sequence as a template to guide the synthesis of a chain of amino acids that form a protein . Translation proceeds in four phases : activation , initiation , elongation , and termination ( all describing the growth of the amino acid chain , or polypeptide that is the product of translation ) . In activation , the correct amino acid ( AA ) is joined to the correct transfer RNA ( tRNA ) . While this is not , in the technical sense , a step in translation , it is required for translation to proceed . The AA is joined by its carboxyl group to the 3 ' OH of the tRNA by an ester bond . When the tRNA has an amino acid linked to it , it is termed `` charged '' . Initiation involves the small subunit of the ribosome binding to 5 ' end of mRNA with the help of initiation factors ( IF ) , other proteins that assist the process . Elongation occurs when the next aminoacyl - tRNA ( charged tRNA ) in line binds to the ribosome along with GTP and an elongation factor . Termination of the polypeptide happens when the A site of the ribosome faces a stop codon ( UAA , UAG , or UGA ) . When this happens , no tRNA can recognize it , but releasing factor can recognize nonsense codons and causes the release of the polypeptide chain . The capacity of disabling or inhibiting translation in protein biosynthesis is used by some antibiotics such as anisomycin , cycloheximide , chloramphenicol , tetracycline , streptomycin , erythromycin , puromycin , etc . Events during or following protein translation ( edit ) Main articles : Proteolysis , Posttranslational modification , and Protein folding Events that occur during or following biosynthesis include proteolysis , post-translational modification and protein folding . Proteolysis may remove N - terminal , C - terminal or internal amino - acid residues or peptides from the polypeptide . The termini and side - chains of the polypeptide may be subjected to post-translational modification . These modifications may be required for correct cellular localisation or the natural function of the protein . During and after synthesis , polypeptide chains often fold to assume , so called , native secondary and tertiary structures . This is known as protein folding and is typically required for the natural function of the protein .

Vanishing point - wikipedia Vanishing point Jump to : navigation , search For other uses , see Vanishing point ( disambiguation ) . A vanishing point can be seen at the far end of this railroad . A vanishing point is a point on the image plane of a perspective drawing where the two - dimensional perspective projections ( or drawings ) of mutually parallel lines in three - dimensional space appear to converge . When the set of parallel lines is perpendicular to a picture plane , the construction is known as one - point perspective , and their vanishing point corresponds to the oculus , or `` eye point '' , from which the image should be viewed for correct perspective geometry . Traditional linear drawings use objects with one to three sets of parallels , defining one to three vanishing points .

Mathematically , let q ≡ ( x , y , f ) be a point lying on the image plane , where f is the focal length ( of the camera associated with the image ) , and let v ≡ ( x / h , y / h , f / h ) be the unit vector associated with q , where h = √ x + y + f . If we consider a straight line in space S with the unit vector n ≡ ( n , n , n ) and its vanishing point v , the unit vector associated with v is equal to n , assuming both are assumed to point towards the image plane . When the image plane is parallel to two world - coordinate axes , lines parallel to the axis which is cut by this image plane will meet at infinity i.e. at the vanishing point . Lines parallel to the other two axes will not form vanishing points as they are parallel to the image plane . This is one - point perspective . Similarly , when the image plane intersects two world - coordinate axes , lines parallel to those planes will meet at infinity and form two vanishing points . This is called two - point perspective . In three - point perspective the image plane intersects the x , y , and z axes and therefore lines parallel to these axes intersect , resulting in three different vanishing points . See also : Property 1 below Theorem ( edit ) The vanishing point theorem is the principal theorem in the science of perspective . It says that the image in a picture plane π of a line L in space , not parallel to the picture , is determined by its intersection with π and its vanishing point . Some authors have used the phrase , `` the image of a line includes its vanishing point '' . Guidobaldo del Monte gave several verifications , and Humphry Ditton called the result the `` main and Great Proposition '' . Brook Taylor wrote the first book in English on perspective in 1714 , which introduced the term `` vanishing point '' and was the first to fully explain the geometry of multipoint perspective , and historian Kirsti Andersen compiled these observations . She notes , in terms of projective geometry , the vanishing point is the image of the point at infinity associated with L , as the sightline from O through the vanishing point is parallel to L . Vanishing line ( edit ) As a vanishing point originates in a line , so a vanishing line originates in a plane α that is not parallel to the picture π . Given the eye point O , and β the plane parallel to α and lying on O , then the vanishing line of α is β ∩ π . For example , when α is the ground plane and β is the horizon plane , then the vanishing line of α is the horizon line β ∩ π . Anderson notes , `` Only one particular vanishing line occurs , often referred to as the `` horizon '' . To put it simply , the vanishing line of some plane , say α , is obtained by the intersection of the image plane with another plane , say β , parallel to the plane of interest ( α ) , passing through the camera center . For different sets of lines parallel to this plane α , their respective vanishing points will lie on this vanishing line . The horizon line is a theoretical line that represents the eye level of the observer . If the object is below the horizon line , its vanishing lines angle up to the horizon line . If the object is above , they slope down . All vanishing lines end at the horizon line . Properties of vanishing points ( edit ) 1 . Projections of two sets of parallel lines lying in some plane π appear to converge , i.e. the vanishing point associated with that pair , on a horizon line , or vanishing line H formed by the intersection of the image plane with the plane parallel to π and passing through the pinhole . Proof : Consider the ground plane π , as y = c which is , for the sake of simplicity , orthogonal to the image plane . Also , consider a line L that lies in the plane π , which is defined by the equation ax + bz = d . Using perspective pinhole projections , a point on L projected on the image plane will have coordinates defined as , x ′ = f x / z = f d − bz / az y ′ = f y / z = f c / z This is the parametric representation of the image L ′ of the line L with z as the parameter . When z → − ∞ it stops at the point ( x ′ , y ′ ) = ( − fb / a , 0 ) on the x ′ axis of the image plane . This is the vanishing point corresponding to all parallel lines with slope − b / a in the plane π . All vanishing points associated with different lines with different slopes belonging to plane π will lie on the x ′ axis , which in this case is the horizon line . 2 . Let A , B , and C be three mutually orthogonal straight lines in space and v ≡ ( x , y , f ) , v ≡ ( x , y , f ) , v ≡ ( x , y , f ) be the three corresponding vanishing points respectively . If we know the coordinates of one of these points , say v , and the direction of a straight line on the image plane , which passes through a second point , say v , we can compute the coordinates of both v and v 3 . Let A , B , and C be three mutually orthogonal straight lines in space and v ≡ ( x , y , f ) , v ≡ ( x , y , f ) , v ≡ ( x , y , f ) be the three corresponding vanishing points respectively . The orthocenter of the triangle with vertices in the three vanishing points is the intersection of the optical axis and the image plane . Curvilinear and reverse perspective ( edit ) A curvilinear perspective is a drawing with either 4 or 5 vanishing points . In 5 - point perspective the vanishing points are mapped into a circle with 4 vanishing points at the cardinal headings N , W , S , E and one at the circle 's origin . A reverse perspective is a drawing with vanishing points that are placed outside the painting with the illusion that they are `` in front of '' the painting . Single point perspective projection . Double point perspective projection . Pietro Perugino 's use of perspective in the Delivery of the Keys fresco at the Sistine Chapel ( 1481 -- 82 ) helped bring the Renaissance to Rome . Detection of vanishing points ( edit ) Several methods for vanishing point detection make use of the line segments detected in images . Other techniques involve considering the intensity gradients of the image pixels directly . There are significantly large numbers of vanishing points present in an image . Therefore , the aim is to detect the vanishing points that correspond to the principal directions of a scene . This is generally achieved in two steps . The first step , called the accumulation step , as the name suggests , clusters the line segments with the assumption that a cluster will share a common vanishing point . The next step finds the principal clusters present in the scene and therefore it is called the search step . In the accumulation step , the image is mapped onto a bounded space called the accumulator space . The accumulator space is partitioned into units called cells . Barnard assumed this space to be a Gaussian sphere centered on the optical center of the camera as an accumulator space . A line segment on the image corresponds to a great circle on this sphere , and the vanishing point in the image is mapped to a point . The Gaussian sphere has accumulator cells that increase when a great circle passes through them , i.e. in the image a line segment intersects the vanishing point . Several modifications have been made since , but one of the most efficient techniques was using the Hough Transform , mapping the parameters of the line segment to the bounded space . Cascaded Hough Transforms have been applied for multiple vanishing points . The process of mapping from the image to the bounded spaces causes the loss of the actual distances between line segments and points . In the search step , the accumulator cell with the maximum number of line segments passing through it is found . This is followed by removal of those line segments , and the search step is repeated until this count goes below a certain threshold . As more computing power is now available , points corresponding to two or three mutually orthogonal directions can be found . Applications of vanishing points ( edit ) Use of cross-ratios in projective geometry to measure real - world dimensions of features depicted in a perspective projection . A , B , C , D and V are points on the image , their separation given in pixels ; A ' , B ' , C ' and D ' are in the real world , their separation in metres . In ( 1 ) , the width of the side street , W is computed from the known widths of the adjacent shops . In ( 2 ) , the width of only one shop is needed because a vanishing point , V is visible . Camera calibration : The vanishing points of an image contain important information for camera calibration . Various calibration techniques have been introduced using the properties of vanishing points to find intrinsic and extrinsic calibration parameters . 3D reconstruction : A man - made environment has two main characteristics -- several lines in the scene are parallel , and a number of edges present are orthogonal . Vanishing points aid in comprehending the environment . Using sets of parallel lines in the plane , the orientation of the plane can be calculated using vanishing points . Torre and Coelho performed extensive investigation in the use of vanishing points to implement a full system . With the assumption that the environment consists of objects with only parallel or perpendicular sides , also called Lego - land , using vanishing points constructed in a single image of the scene they recovered the 3D geometry of the scene . Similar ideas are also used in the field of robotics , mainly in navigation and autonomous vehicles , and in areas concerned with object detection .

The speech launched Reagan into national prominence . Contents ( hide ) 1 Background 2 Aftermath 3 References 4 Further reading 5 External links Background ( edit ) Many versions of the speech exist , since it was altered over many weeks . Contrary to popular belief , however , the speech was not given at the 1964 Republican National Convention in San Francisco , California as a nomination speech for presidential candidate Senator Barry Goldwater ; Richard Nixon gave that nomination speech . Reagan , though he campaigned for Goldwater , did not use `` A Time for Choosing '' until October 27 , 1964 , when it was part of a pre-recorded television program , Rendezvous with Destiny . In his autobiography , An American Life , Reagan recalled going to bed that night `` hoping I had n't let Barry down . '' Speaking for Goldwater , Reagan stressed his belief in the importance of smaller government . In the speech , he revealed his ideological motivation : `` The Founding Fathers knew a government ca n't control the economy without controlling people . And they knew when a government sets out to do that , it must use force and coercion to achieve its purpose . So we have come to a time for choosing . '' He also said , `` You and I are told we must choose between a left or right , but I suggest there is no such thing as a left or right . There is only an up or down . Up to man 's age - old dream -- the maximum of individual freedom consistent with law and order -- or down to the ant heap of totalitarianism . '' The speech raised $1 million for Goldwater 's campaign , and is considered the event that launched Reagan 's political career . Aftermath ( edit ) To this day , `` The Speech '' is considered one of the most effective ever made on behalf of a candidate . Nevertheless , Barry Goldwater lost the election by one of the largest margins in history . Soon afterwards , Reagan was asked to run for Governor of California ; he ran for office and won election in 1966 . Reagan was later dubbed the `` Great Communicator '' in recognition of his effective oratory skills . References ( edit ) Jump up ^ Reagan , Ronald ( 1990 ) . An American Life : The Autobiography .

The Patriots defeated the Eagles by the score of 24 -- 21 . The game was played on February 6 , 2005 , at Alltel Stadium in Jacksonville , Florida , the first time the Super Bowl was played in that city . The Patriots , who entered the Super Bowl after compiling a 14 -- 2 regular season record , became the first team since the 1997 -- 1998 Denver Broncos to win consecutive Super Bowls . New England also became the second team after the Dallas Cowboys to win three Super Bowls in four years . The Eagles were making their second Super Bowl appearance after posting a 13 -- 3 regular season record . The game was close throughout , with the teams battling to a 14 -- 14 tie by the end of the third quarter . The Patriots then scored 10 points in the 4th quarter with Corey Dillon 's 2 - yard touchdown run and Adam Vinatieri 's 22 - yard field goal . The Eagles then cut their deficit to 24 -- 21 , with quarterback Donovan McNabb 's 30 - yard touchdown pass to receiver Greg Lewis , with 1 : 48 remaining in the game but could not sustain the comeback . Overall , New England forced four turnovers , while Patriots wide receiver Deion Branch was named Super Bowl MVP for recording 133 receiving yards and tied the Super Bowl record with 11 catches . To avoid the possibility of an incident similar to the Super Bowl XXXVIII halftime show during the previous year , the league selected Paul McCartney as a `` safe '' choice to perform during Super Bowl XXXIX 's halftime . The broadcast of the game on Fox was watched by an estimated 86 million viewers .

Patriots seek to become a dynasty ( edit ) Main article : 2004 New England Patriots season New England finished the regular season with a record of 14 -- 2 , bested only by the Steelers ' 15 -- 1 mark , and ranking 7th in yards gained ( 5,773 ) and fourth in points scored ( 437 ) . The Patriots ' major acquisition prior to the season was veteran running back Corey Dillon , who joined the team after playing 7 seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals . In his first 6 seasons in the league , Dillon averaged over 1,250 rushing yards per year , including setting a single - game rushing record ( 278 yards , but has since been broken ) against the Denver Broncos on October 22 , 2000 . In 2003 , however , injuries , conflicts with the Bengals ' management and coaching staff , and other off - field problems limited him to just 541 yards during the season . By the end of the 2003 season , Dillon had lost his starting job to running back Rudi Johnson , and thus demanded to be traded . Although many observers questioned how effective the 30 - year - old Dillon would be after recovering from his injuries as well as his ability to function in a team environment , the Patriots decided to sign the running back in exchange for a second - round draft pick . Dillon became a significant offensive weapon for the 2004 Patriots , recording 1,635 rushing yards ( franchise record ) and 12 touchdowns , both career highs , and was named to the Pro Bowl for the fourth time in his career . He also caught 15 passes for 103 yards and another touchdown . His contributions helped lead the team to break the NFL record for the most consecutive regular season victories ( 18 ) , the record for the most consecutive overall victories ( 21 ) and earned the second best regular season record during the year at 14 -- 2 . The team 's only losses during the year were to the Pittsburgh Steelers , who ended up with the league 's best regular season record at 15 -- 1 , and a 29 -- 28 loss to the Miami Dolphins on ABC 's Monday Night Football . Another weapon in the Patriots ' offensive backfield was running back Kevin Faulk , who rushed for 255 yards , recorded 26 receptions for 248 yards , returned 20 punts for 113 yards , returned 4 kickoffs for 73 yards , and scored 3 total touchdowns . Fullback Patrick Pass also emerged as a big contributor , rushing for 141 yards , catching 28 passes for 215 yards , and gaining another 115 yards on kickoff returns . Pro Bowl quarterback Tom Brady remained at the helm of the Patriots offense , completing 288 out of 474 ( 60.8 percent ) of his passes for 3,692 yards , 28 touchdowns , and 14 interceptions . Although wide receiver Deion Branch , New England 's major deep threat , missed most of the season because of injuries , he did record 35 receptions for 454 yards and 4 touchdowns . Wide receiver David Givens ended up being the team 's leading receiver with 56 catches for 874 yards and 3 touchdowns . Wide receiver David Patten also contributed with 44 receptions for 800 yards and 7 touchdowns , and tight end Daniel Graham had 30 receptions for 364 yards and 7 touchdowns . On special teams , pro bowl kicker Adam Vinatieri had the best season of his career , leading the NFL in field goals made ( 31 ) , field goal percentage ( 93.9 ) and scoring ( 141 points ) On defense , the Patriots were plagued by injuries , especially in their secondary . Defensive backs Tyrone Poole and Ty Law suffered season - ending injuries , while safety Eugene Wilson , who led the team with 4 interceptions , missed several games . In order to compensate for the losses , the following players were promoted to starters : Rookie cornerback Randall Gay , who did not play at all in the first 3 games of the season , and did not start until the 6th week . Cornerback Asante Samuel , who normally only played in dime formations . Safety Earthwind Moreland , who came off of the team 's practice squad and had only played in three games in his entire 5 - year NFL career . Veteran wide receiver Troy Brown . Head Coach Bill Belichick used Brown in the secondary during training camp , gave him playing time there during the preseason and saw Brown did very well . With their patchwork secondary , the Patriots ranked just 17th in passing yards allowed ( 3,400 ) and 22nd in completions allowed ( 315 ) . However , they did rank 7th in interceptions ( 20 ) and 10th in fewest passing touchdowns allowed ( 18 ) . Most importantly , New England continued to win despite the injuries . Brown actually turned out to be very effective playing as a defensive back , ranking second on the team with 3 interceptions . Safety Rodney Harrison was also an impact player , leading the team with 138 tackles while also recording 3 sacks and 2 interceptions . Up front , the Patriots ' defensive line was anchored by Pro Bowler Richard Seymour , who recorded 5 sacks and 1 fumble recovery . New England also still had their trio of impact veteran linebackers : Pro Bowler Tedy Bruschi ( 122 tackles , 3.5 sacks , 3 interceptions , and 70 return yards ) , Willie McGinest ( 9.5 sacks , 1 fumble recovery , and 1 interception ) , and Mike Vrabel ( 71 tackles and 5.5 sacks ) , along with Ted Johnson . Vrabel also frequently played at the tight end position during offensive plays near the opponent 's goal line , recording 2 touchdown receptions . Eagles return to the Super Bowl ( edit ) Main article : 2004 Philadelphia Eagles season The Eagles gained the 2004 NFC Super Bowl berth after 3 consecutive defeats in the NFC Championship Game to the St. Louis Rams , Tampa Bay Buccaneers ( who won Super Bowl XXXVII that year ) , and Carolina Panthers , respectively . The Eagles hired Andy Reid as their head coach in 1999 following two straight losing seasons . That same year , they used their first - round pick in the NFL draft ( the second overall ) to select quarterback Donovan McNabb . Although they finished the 1999 regular season with a 5 -- 11 record , they became a playoff team in 2000 , with McNabb throwing for 3,365 yards and 21 touchdowns while also rushing for 629 yards and another 6 touchdowns . The Eagles achieved the best regular season record in the conference during the combined 2001 , 2002 , and 2003 seasons with a total of 35 wins out of 48 games , but lost the NFC Championship Game in each of those 3 years . Prior to the 2004 season , the Eagles traded for wide receiver Terrell Owens to be the impact player to help get them to the Super Bowl . Owens joined the team after 8 seasons with the San Francisco 49ers . He was considered one of the top receivers in the league , but he was also widely considered a troublemaker because of controversial touchdown celebrations and his tendency to berate his teammates during media interviews . Nevertheless , Owens became the Eagles ' deep - ball threat , finishing the season with 77 receptions for 1,200 yards and 14 touchdowns . McNabb had the best season of his career in 2004 , completing 300 out of 469 ( 64 percent ) passes for 3,875 yards , 31 touchdowns , and 8 interceptions , making him the first quarterback to ever throw for more than 30 touchdowns and fewer than 10 interceptions in a season . He also rushed for 220 yards and 3 touchdowns . Wide receiver Todd Pinkston was also a reliable target , recording 36 catches for 676 yards . Philadelphia 's running game was not as strong as their passing attack , ranking just 24th in the league in rushing yards ( 1,639 ) . Running back Brian Westbrook led the team with 812 rushing yards and 3 touchdowns , however he also led all NFL running backs in receiving with 73 receptions for 706 yards and 6 touchdowns . Veteran running back Dorsey Levens was also a big contributor with 410 rushing yards . The Eagles ' offensive line was led by Pro Bowl tackles Tra Thomas and Jon Runyan and center Hank Fraley . Three of their four starters in the defensive secondary were named to the Pro Bowl : Cornerback Lito Sheppard ( 1 sack , 5 interceptions , 172 return yards and 2 touchdowns ) , safety Michael Lewis ( 88 tackles , 2 forced fumbles , 1 sack , and 1 interception ) and safety Brian Dawkins ( 3 sacks , 2 forced fumbles , 1 fumble recovery , and 4 interceptions for 40 return yards ) , while their fourth starter , cornerback Sheldon Brown , also enjoyed a solid year ( 89 tackles , 3 sacks , 1 forced fumble , and 2 interceptions ) . Their defensive line was anchored by Pro Bowl defensive tackle Corey Simon ( 5.5 sacks ) and defensive ends Jevon Kearse ( 7.5 sacks , Pro Bowl ) and Derrick Burgess . Pro Bowl middle linebacker Jeremiah Trotter , who only started 9 games , recorded 69 tackles and 1 sack . The Eagles started the 2004 regular season with seven straight wins before suffering a loss to the 15 - 1 Steelers . After that , they finished the season with a 13 -- 3 record . Their only other 2 losses were in their last 2 games of the season , when they decided to rest all of their starters because they had already clinched the NFC # 1 seed , and thus home - field advantage in the playoffs . However , during a December 19 , 12 -- 7 win over the Dallas Cowboys , Owens was seriously injured on a `` horse - collar tackle '' by Cowboys defensive back Roy Williams and had to miss the rest of the regular season and the playoffs . Playoffs ( edit ) Main article : 2004 -- 05 NFL playoffs Despite the loss of Owens , the Eagles beat the Minnesota Vikings , 27 -- 14 , and the Atlanta Falcons , 27 -- 10 , in the playoffs with relative ease . McNabb recorded 21 out of 33 completions for 286 yards and two touchdowns , while receiver Freddie Mitchell scored two touchdowns in the victory over the Vikings . Although Minnesota quarterback Daunte Culpepper threw for 316 yards , the Eagles defense recorded 2 interceptions , 2 sacks , and a forced fumble . McNabb then completed 17 out of 26 passes for 180 yards and two touchdowns in the win over the Falcons . The Eagles defense held dual - threat quarterback Michael Vick to only 136 passing yards , 26 rushing yards , and no touchdowns , while also recording an interception , 4 sacks , and a forced fumble on Vick . McNabb had an average passer rating of 111.3 in the two games , with 466 passing yards , 35 rushing yards , 4 touchdowns , and no turnovers . Safety Brian Dawkins was also an important player , recording a sack and a forced fumble against the Vikings , followed by an interception and a forced fumble against the Falcons in the NFC Championship Game . Meanwhile , the Patriots defeated the Indianapolis Colts , 20 -- 3 , holding the league 's highest scoring team with 522 total points to just one field goal , Indianapolis ' lowest point total since their opening game of the 2003 season . Colts quarterback Peyton Manning threw for 4,557 yards during the regular season , and set NFL records for most touchdown passes in a regular season ( 49 ) and highest quarterback rating ( 121.4 ) . Running back Edgerrin James gained 2,031 combined rushing and receiving yards and scored 9 touchdowns . Wide receivers Marvin Harrison , Reggie Wayne , and Brandon Stokley each recorded over 1,000 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns . However , the Patriots limited Manning to 238 passing yards with 1 interception and no touchdowns , and James to just 39 rushing yards . The Patriots also held possession of the ball for 37 : 43 , including 21 : 26 in the second half , and recorded three long scoring drives that each took over 7 minutes off the clock . One reason New England was able to hold the ball so long was because of Dillon 's rushing . He finished the game with 23 carries for 144 yards and 5 receptions for 17 yards . The Patriots then defeated the first seeded Pittsburgh Steelers in the AFC Championship Game , 41 -- 27 . Although Pittsburgh had beaten New England , 34 -- 20 , during the regular season and led the league in fewest total yards allowed , they could not stop the Patriots . Brady threw for 207 yards and 2 touchdowns ; Dillon rushed for 73 yards and a touchdown ; and Branch , who was coming off of his injuries , recorded 4 receptions for 116 yards and a touchdown , along with 37 rushing yards and another touchdown on 2 carries . Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger ( who had struggled the previous week against the New York Jets ) was intercepted 3 times , and running back Jerome Bettis , Pittsburgh 's leading rusher , was held to just 64 yards . Super Bowl pregame News ( edit ) Owens was cleared to play in Super Bowl XXXIX , defying doctors orders by playing on his injured ankle containing 2 screws and a metal plate . The other major story was the Patriots ' potential loss of both their offensive coordinator and defensive coordinator at the end of the season , and how it might affect the team in 2005 . On December 12 , 2004 , about a month and a half before the game , New England offensive coordinator Charlie Weis signed a contract to become the head coach of Notre Dame starting in the 2005 season . Rumors were also circulating that defensive coordinator Romeo Crennel would also leave the team to become the head coach of the Cleveland Browns ( which ended up being true as Crennel and the Browns agreed to a contract a couple of weeks after the Super Bowl ) . Due to injuries at the tight end spot , the Eagles were forced to sign Jeff Thomason , a former tight end who was working construction at the time , to a one - game contract for the Super Bowl . Thomason saw time during several plays , although never had a ball thrown his way . This was his third Super Bowl , playing in two with the Green Bay Packers during Andy Reid 's days as a Packer assistant . With this appearance the Patriots became the 8th team to make it to the Super Bowl for the 5th time . They joined the Dallas Cowboys , Denver Broncos , Pittsburgh Steelers , San Francisco 49ers , Miami Dolphins , Washington Redskins , and Oakland / Los Angeles Raiders . They would be joined by the Green Bay Packers in 2011 and the New York Giants in 2012 . The Eagles were trying to win their first NFL title since 1960 and the first championship for the city of Philadelphia since Moses Malone 's `` fo ' , fi ' , fo ' '' during the 76ers run to the 1983 NBA Championship . With President George W. Bush being inaugurated for a second time in January , the Eagles were also trying to end a losing streak -- teams in the city of Philadelphia had lost six straight championships during presidential inauguration years , beginning with the 76ers loss in 1977 . The streak included the Eagles in Super Bowl XV in 1981 . 1989 was not included in that streak , but 1977 , 1981 , 1985 ( Flyers ) , 1993 ( Phillies ) , 1997 ( Flyers ) , and 2001 ( 76ers ) were . Television and entertainment ( edit ) The game was televised in the United States by Fox , with play - by - play announcer Joe Buck and color commentators Cris Collinsworth and Troy Aikman . Pam Oliver ( Patriots sideline ) and Chris Myers ( Eagles sideline ) served as sideline reporters . This marked the first time since Super Bowl I that none of the network commentators had ever called a Super Bowl game before ( although Collinsworth had worked three prior Super Bowl telecasts as a pregame analyst ) . This was the last game that Cris Collinsworth broadcast as a member of the Fox NFL team , as he chose to sign with NBC in the following off - season . James Brown hosted all the events with help from his fellow Fox NFL Sunday cast members Terry Bradshaw , Howie Long , and Jimmy Johnson . Jillian Barberie served as weather and entertainment reporter . Following the game , Fox aired a special episode of The Simpsons ( `` Homer and Ned 's Hail Mary Pass '' ) and the series premiere of American Dad ! ( `` Pilot '' ) , except in Philadelphia and Boston , where local newscasts delayed the premieres by an hour . Pregame ceremonies ( edit ) Before the game , performances came from the Black Eyed Peas , Earth Wind & Fire , Charlie Daniels , John Fogerty , and Gretchen Wilson . Shortly before kickoff , Alicia Keys sang `` America the Beautiful , '' paying tribute to Ray Charles , who died in June 2004 . The combined choirs of the U.S. Military Academy , the U.S. Naval Academy , the U.S. Air Force Academy , and the U.S. Coast Guard Academy ( including members of The Idlers ) sang the national anthem accompanied by the U.S. Army Herald Trumpets . This was the first time in more than 30 years that all four service academies sang together -- the last time was at the second inauguration of President Richard Nixon in 1973 . The traditional military missing man formation flyby was this year performed by a pair of F / A-18 Super Hornets from VFA - 106 at NAS Oceana and a pair of the Air Force 's newest fighters , the F - 22 Raptor , flying from Tyndall AFB , the training base for the Raptor . The earlier military flyby during the veterans ' salute was conducted by 2 T - 6 Texan trainers and a B - 25 Mitchell bomber . The coin toss ceremony featured youth football players from Jacksonville : Tyler Callahan , Tyler Deal , Lawrence McCauley , and Jacob Santana ; and New Orleans NFL Junior Player Development coach Tamaris Jackson . They were billed as the first non-celebrities to participate in the coin toss . For the third straight year , each team took the field en masse , following a tradition the Patriots had started in Super Bowl XXXVI . In prerecorded video segments , Andover , Massachusetts native Michael Chiklis introduced the Patriots , and Philadelphia - born Will Smith introduced the Eagles . Halftime show ( edit ) Paul McCartney performed during the halftime show Paul McCartney performed during the halftime show ; his selection by the NFL , the show 's producers , Don Mischer Productions , and the show 's sponsor , Ameriquest Mortgage , was considered to be a `` safe '' choice , as it avoided the possibility for an incident similar to that which sparked the Super Bowl XXXVIII halftime show controversy the previous year . McCartney 's set consisted of these songs : `` Drive My Car '' `` Get Back '' `` Live and Let Die '' from his career with Wings . `` Hey Jude '' Theme ( edit ) Taking the concept a step further , for the first time , a theme was tied to the event : Building Bridges , as symbolized by the theme logo , represented by the Main Street Bridge , one of the seven bridges that crosses over the St. Johns River in the host city , and according to the League , symbolized the bridging of a nation under the NFL football umbrella . The theme was also used by Jacksonville - area nonprofit Fresh Ministries in a major event entitled `` Bridges of Peace , '' featuring city officials asking the people to unite for the Super Bowl and heal the wounds of segregation . Presidential appearances ( edit ) Former Presidents George H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton appeared in support of their bipartisan effort to raise money for relief of the December 26 , 2004 tsunami in southeast Asia through the USA Freedom Corps , an action which former President Bush described as `` transcending politics . '' Game Summary ( edit ) The Eagles on offense First quarter ( edit ) On the first drive of the game , Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb fumbled while being sacked by New England linebacker Willie McGinest , and the Patriots recovered the ball at Philadelphia 's 34 - yard line . Fortunately for the Eagles , coach Andy Reid 's instant replay challenge overruled the fumble ; officials ruled that McNabb had been down by contact before the ball came out of his hands . Later in the quarter after each team had punted twice , McNabb completed a 30 - yard pass to Terrell Owens , with a roughing the passer penalty adding 9 yards , moving the ball inside the Patriots 20 - yard line . However , linebacker Mike Vrabel sacked McNabb for a 16 - yard loss on the next play . On the following play , the Eagles once again appeared to turn the ball over : McNabb 's pass was intercepted in the end zone by Patriots defensive back Asante Samuel , but it was nullified by an illegal contact penalty on linebacker Roman Phifer , moving the ball back inside the 20 and giving the Eagles a first down . However , McNabb 's second chance was wasted as he threw an interception to safety Rodney Harrison on the next play . This was Donovan McNabb 's first red zone interception of the season . The Eagles defense then forced New England to a three - and - out on their ensuing possession , and Philadelphia got great field position by receiving the punt at the Patriots 45 - yard line . But once again , they gave up another turnover : tight end L.J. Smith lost a fumble while being tackled by defensive back Randall Gay , and Eugene Wilson recovered the ball at the 38 . Brady takes the snap Brady throws a pass Second quarter ( edit ) The Eagles defense once again forced New England to punt , and got the ball back at their own 19 - yard line . Aided by a pair of completions from McNabb to wide receiver Todd Pinkston for gains of 17 and 40 yards , the Eagles drove 81 yards in nine plays and scored on McNabb 's six - yard touchdown pass to Tight End LJ Smith , taking a 7 -- 0 lead with 9 : 55 left in the second quarter . It was the first time New England trailed during the entire postseason . On their ensuing drive , the Patriots moved the ball to the Eagles four - yard line , mainly on plays by running back Corey Dillon , who caught two screen passes for 29 yards and rushed for 25 . But quarterback Tom Brady fumbled the ball on a fake handoff Play - action pass and Philadelphia defender Darwin Walker recovered it . However , the Eagles could not take advantage of the turnover and had to punt after 3 plays . Eagles punter Dirk Johnson 's punt went just 29 yards , giving the Patriots the ball at Philadelphia 's 37 - yard line . The Patriots then drove 37 yards to score on Brady 's 4 - yard pass to receiver David Givens with 1 : 10 remaining in the period , tying the game 7 -- 7 by halftime . It was only the second halftime tie in Super Bowl history and the first time both of the game 's first two quarters ended tied . Third quarter ( edit ) On the opening drive of the second half , Patriots wide receiver Deion Branch caught 4 passes for 71 yards on a drive that ended with Brady 's 2 - yard touchdown pass to Vrabel , who lined up at the tight end spot on the play . The Eagles later tied the game with 3 : 39 left in the third period with a 74 - yard , 10 - play drive that was capped by McNabb 's 10 - yard touchdown pass to running back Brian Westbrook . For the first time in Super Bowl history , the game was tied going into the fourth quarter . Fourth quarter ( edit ) Early in the final period , the Patriots put together a 9 - play , 66 - yard scoring drive that was keyed by 3 plays from running back Kevin Faulk , who caught 2 passes for 27 combined yards and rushed once for 12 . Dillon capped off the drive with a 2 - yard touchdown run to give the Patriots a 21 -- 14 lead . Then after forcing another Eagles punt , Branch made a spectacular catch , taking the ball out of the hands of cornerback Sheldon Brown . The 19 yard gain , and a roughing - the - passer penalty on Philadelphia defensive lineman Corey Simon on the same play , set up kicker Adam Vinatieri 's 22 - yard field goal with 8 : 43 left in the game to increase the score 24 -- 14 in favor of New England . In all three Patriots ' Super Bowl wins in the decade , they held a double digit lead in the 4th quarter . The Eagles responded with a long McNabb completion to Owens . However , after reaching the New England 36 - yard line , McNabb fired a pass over the head of Dorsey Levens , where Tedy Bruschi was waiting to intercept it at the Patriots 24 - yard line . At this point , there was only 7 : 20 to play in the game , with the Patriots still up by 10 points . The Eagles did force New England to punt , and got the ball back at their own 21 - yard line , but with 5 : 40 left in the game . The Eagles then drove 79 yards in 13 plays , however they used a full huddle for the entire drive . McNabb 's 30 - yard touchdown pass to receiver Greg Lewis cut the deficit to 24 - 21 . Because the Eagles used a full huddle , the drive consumed 3 : 52 of the clock , and only 1 : 48 remained in the game by the time Lewis scored . Because of this , many sportswriters later criticized the Eagles for not immediately going to a no - huddle offense at the start of the possession . Anecdotal reports later came out alleging that McNabb was suffering from dry - heaves , and teammates Jon Ritchie and Lito Sheppard have gone on record years later that McNabb was suffering from dry - heaves or vomiting , though no video evidence exists and the stories have not been confirmed . Hank Fraley said in an interview the day after the game that McNabb was `` almost puking '' due to two large hits from Tedy Bruschi and Jarvis Green on back - to - back plays . McNabb himself denies that he was vomiting or dry - heaving during the final drive , and Brian Westbrook later claimed that McNabb was merely `` coughing . '' The Eagles failed to recover their ensuing onside kick attempt , with Christian Fauria catching the ball cleanly and sliding down to seal possession for New England . The Patriots then played it safe by running the ball 3 times and forcing Philadelphia to use all of its timeouts . New England punter Josh Miller then pinned the Eagles back at their own 4 - yard line with just 46 seconds left in the game . Philadelphia then tried one last desperate drive to win or tie the game . But on first down , McNabb was pressured into making a rushed pass to Westbrook at the line of scrimmage . Instead of dropping the pass to stop the clock , Westbrook made the mistake of catching the ball and was immediately tackled for no gain , keeping the clock running and forcing the Eagles to run back to the line of scrimmage for their next play with no huddle . On second down , McNabb threw an incomplete pass intended for Owens . Finally on third down , McNabb threw a pass that deflected off of the outstretched fingertips of Smith and into the arms of Harrison for an interception with nine seconds left . Tom Brady took a knee to run out the clock , clinching the 3rd Super Bowl title in 4 years for the Patriots , and in the eyes of many establishing themselves as a dynasty .

For other American football terms , see Glossary of American football . 24 21 Statistical overview ( edit ) The Patriots score their second touchdown of the game McNabb completed 30 out of 51 passes for 357 yards and 3 touchdowns , but threw 3 interceptions and was sacked four times . McNabb 's 357 yards are tied with Joe Montana for the fifth most in Super Bowl history and third most of any quarterback , as Tom Brady holds the top spot with 505 yards in Super Bowl LII and Kurt Warner holds the following 3 spots . Westbrook was the Eagles leading rusher with 44 yards , while also catching 6 passes for 70 yards and a touchdown and returning 3 punts for 19 yards . Pinkston caught 4 passes for 82 yards , while Owens was the Eagles ' top receiver with 9 catches for 122 yards , however neither of them scored a touchdown . Brady completed 23 out of 33 passes for 236 yards and 2 touchdowns . Dillon was the top rusher of the game with 75 yards and a touchdown , and had 3 catches for 31 yards . Running back Kevin Faulk contributed 38 rushing yards and 27 receiving yards . Branch 's Super Bowl record 11 catches tied Cincinnati Bengals ' Dan Ross in Super Bowl XVI and San Francisco 49ers ' Jerry Rice in Super Bowl XXIII . Coincidentally , all three would later be traded to the Seattle Seahawks : Ross in 1985 , Rice in 2004 and Branch in 2006 . Branch 's combined 21 catches in Super Bowls XXXVIII and XXXIX are the most in back - to - back Super Bowls . Branch also became the third offensive player ever to win Super Bowl MVP honors without scoring a touchdown or throwing a touchdown pass . The other two players were Joe Namath in Super Bowl III and Fred Biletnikoff in Super Bowl XI . Branch and Terrell Owens each had 100 yards receiving , marking the third time in Super Bowl history , one player from each team had over 100 yards in a Super Bowl . Michael Irvin and Andre Reed were the first in Super Bowl XXVII , and Branch and Muhsin Muhammad the second a year earlier in Super Bowl XXXVIII . Branch also became the fourth player to have at least 100 yards receiving in back - to - back Super Bowls , joining John Stallworth , Jerry Rice and Antonio Freeman . Also , Mike Vrabel and David Givens became just the 14th and 15th players to score a touchdown in consecutive Super Bowls . Vrabel is the most surprising person on this list because he is a linebacker and he scored his on offense . They also became just the 7th and 8th players to catch a touchdown in back - to - back Super Bowls . With the victory , Tom Brady became just the fourth quarterback to win at least three Super Bowls , along with Terry Bradshaw , Joe Montana and Troy Aikman . Brady also became the fourth quarterback to throw a touchdown pass in three different Super Bowls . Other quarterbacks to do it were Terry Bradshaw , Joe Montana and John Elway , with Kurt Warner later accomplishing the feat during Super Bowl XLIII . The Patriots joined the Dallas Cowboys as the only teams in NFL history to win three Super Bowls in a span of four years . Aftermath ( edit ) The Patriots ' Super Bowl win was the third championship for Boston - area sports teams in 12 months , following the Patriots winning Super Bowl XXXVIII the year before and the Red Sox winning the World Series -- first in 86 years -- three months earlier . This marked the first time since 1989 -- 1990 in the San Francisco Bay Area that the same market has had 2 Super Bowl and World Series winners in 12 months . The Patriots would later appear in Super Bowl XLII and Super Bowl XLVI , losing both to Eli Manning 's New York Giants , before winning Super Bowl XLIX against the Seattle Seahawks , 28 -- 24 , ten years later and Super Bowl LI against the Atlanta Falcons , 34 - 28 , two years later . The latest Super Bowl win for the Patriots makes it ten titles among the four Boston teams ( 5 by the Patriots , 3 by the Red Sox , and one each by the Celtics and Bruins ) since 2002 . For the Eagles , with the loss , the city of Philadelphia would not see its first championship since the 76ers swept the 1983 NBA Finals until the next time their city 's teams played for a championship , when the Phillies won the 2008 World Series . The Eagles did not return to the Super Bowl until 2017 , also with a 13 - 3 record , and defeating the Falcons and Vikings in the playoffs . The Eagles and the Patriots met again in Super Bowl LII , following the 2017 season , with the Eagles taking their revenge 41 -- 33 . This is the last time that a team has won back - to - back Super Bowls , with the Patriots losing their second playoff game a year later and then , for the next eight years , every team either losing their first playoff game or missing them altogether . The streak was broken in 2014 when the Seahawks defeated the Panthers and ultimately advanced to the Super Bowl , only to lose to a Patriots goal line stand . The next year , the Patriots , having faltered down the stretch , entered those playoffs as the second seed behind the Broncos , who then defeated New England in the AFC Title Game that year en route to a title of their own in Super Bowl 50 . Two years later , the Patriots , defending champions themselves from Super Bowl LI , returned to repeat their title only to lose the aforementioned Super Bowl LII .

One ad that drew the ire of many -- including the NFL -- was for the internet domain provider Go Daddy , which tweaked the controversial halftime of the previous year 's game with a mock censorship hearing featuring a comely woman , Nikki Cappelli ( played by WWE Wrestler Candice Michelle ) , having a `` wardrobe malfunction '' . Fox pulled the second airing of the ad , scheduled for the two - minute warning of the fourth quarter , along with a five - second plug , and it was replaced with a promo for The Simpsons . The Scottsdale , Arizona - based World Wide Web domain registration company got a refund on the second ad . Another popular ad was made by the NFL . It featured players who were not in the Super Bowl , headlined by Pittsburgh Steelers rookie quarterback Ben Roethlisberger being at a beach resort , depressed he did not make it in . Joe Montana comforted Roethlisberger , and soon both Montana and Roethlisberger joined many other players in different locations in an off - key yet rousing edition of `` Tomorrow '' from the musical Annie . The commercial ended with the tagline : `` Tomorrow , we 're all undefeated again . '' Roethlisberger went on to lead the Steelers to victory in Super Bowl XL the very next season . The top ad , as chosen by the USA Today Super Bowl Ad Meter was for Anheuser - Busch 's Bud Light featuring a timid skydiver making his first jump getting enticed with a six - pack of the product . This ad was ranked second on ADBOWL . The highest ranked commercial by ADBOWL was Anheuser - Busch 's `` Applause . '' For the first time since the campaign started in Super Bowl XXI , no `` I 'm going to Disney World ! '' ad aired following Super Bowl XXXIX . Player bonuses ( edit ) Each member of the Patriots received a payment of $68,000 for winning the game . The Eagles each received $36,500 . When adjusted for inflation , the Patriots salary was actually less than the $15,000 paid to members of the Green Bay Packers for winning Super Bowl I in 1967 . That amount of money in 1967 equated to approximately $85,000 in 2005 .

Second Great Awakening - wikipedia Second Great Awakening Jump to : navigation , search An engraving of a Methodist camp meeting in 1819 ( Library of Congress ) . Great Awakening First ( c. 1730 -- 1755 ) Second ( c. 1790 -- 1840 ) Third ( c. 1855 -- 1900 ) Fourth ( c. 1960 -- 1980 ) The Second Great Awakening was a Protestant religious revival during the early 19th century in the United States . The movement began around 1790 , gained momentum by 1800 and , after 1820 , membership rose rapidly among Baptist and Methodist congregations whose preachers led the movement . It was past its peak by the late 1850s . The Second Great Awakening reflected Romanticism characterized by enthusiasm , emotion , and an appeal to the super-natural . It rejected the skeptical rationalism and deism of the Enlightenment . The revivals enrolled millions of new members in existing evangelical denominations and led to the formation of new denominations . Many converts believed that the Awakening heralded a new millennial age . The Second Great Awakening stimulated the establishment of many reform movements designed to remedy the evils of society before the anticipated Second Coming of Jesus Christ . Historians named the Second Great Awakening in the context of the First Great Awakening of the 1730s and 1740s and of the Third Great Awakening of the late 1850s to early 1900s . These revivals were part of a much larger Romantic religious movement that was sweeping across Europe at the time , mainly throughout England , Scotland , and Germany .

It rejected the skepticism , deism , and rationalism left over from the Enlightenment . At about the same time , similar movements flourished in Europe . Pietism was sweeping German countries . Evangelicalism was waxing strong in England . The Second Great Awakening occurred in several episodes and over different denominations ; however , the revivals were very similar . As the most effective form of evangelizing during this period , revival meetings cut across geographical boundaries , and the movement quickly spread throughout Kentucky , Tennessee and southern Ohio . Each denomination had assets that allowed it to thrive on the frontier . The Methodists had an efficient organization that depended on itinerant ministers , known as circuit riders , who sought out people in remote frontier locations . The circuit riders came from among the common people , which helped them establish rapport with the frontier families they hoped to convert . Theology ( edit ) Main article : Postmillennialism Postmillennialism theology dominated American Protestantism in the first half of the 19th century . Postmillennialists believed that Christ will return to earth after the `` millennium '' , which could entail either a literal 1,000 years or a figurative `` long period '' of peace and happiness . Christians thus had a duty to purify society in preparation for that return . This duty extended beyond American borders to include Christian Restorationism . George Fredrickson argues that Postmillennial theology `` was an impetus to the promotion of Progressive reforms , as historians have frequently pointed out . '' During the Second Great Awakening of the 1830s , some diviners expected the millennium to arrive in a few years . By the 1840s , however , the great day had receded to the distant future , and postmillennialism became a more passive religious dimension of the wider middle - class pursuit of reform and progress . Burned - over district ( edit ) Main article : Burned - over district In the early nineteenth century , western New York State was called the `` burned - over district '' because of the highly publicized revivals that crisscrossed the region . Charles Finney , a leading revivalist active in the area , coined the term . Linda K. Pritchard uses statistical data to show that compared to the rest of New York State , the Ohio River Valley in the lower Midwest , and the country as a whole , the religiosity of the Burned - over District was typical rather than exceptional . West and Tidewater South ( edit ) On the American Frontier , evangelical denominations sent missionary preachers and exhorters out to the people in the backcountry , which supported the growth of membership among Methodists and Baptists . Revivalists ' techniques were based on the camp meeting , with its Scottish Presbyterian roots . Most of the Scots - Irish immigrants before the American Revolutionary War settled in the backcountry of Pennsylvania and down the spine of the Appalachian Mountains . These denominations were based on an interpretation of man 's spiritual equality before God , which led them to recruit members and preachers from a wide range of classes and all races . Baptists and Methodist revivals were successful in some parts of the Tidewater in the South , where an increasing number of common planters , plain folk , and slaves were converted . West ( edit ) Main article : Revival of 1800 In the newly settled frontier regions , the revival was implemented through camp meetings . These often provided the first encounter for some settlers with organized religion , and they were important as social venues . The camp meeting was a religious service of several days ' length with preachers . Settlers in thinly populated areas gathered at the camp meeting for fellowship as well as worship . The sheer exhilaration of participating in a religious revival with crowds of hundreds and perhaps thousands of people inspired the dancing , shouting , and singing associated with these events . The revivals followed an arc of great emotional power , with an emphasis of the individual 's sins and need to turn to Christ , restored by a sense of personal salvation . Upon their return home , most converts joined or created small local churches , which grew rapidly . The Second Great Awakening marked a religious transition in society in America . Many Americans from the Calvinist sect emphasized man 's inability to save themselves and that their only way to be saved was from grace from God . The Revival of 1800 in Logan County , Kentucky , began as a traditional Presbyterian sacramental occasion . The first informal camp meeting began there in June , when people began camping on the grounds of the Red River Meeting House . Subsequent meetings followed at the nearby Gasper River and Muddy River congregations , all three under the ministry of James McGready . One year later , an even larger sacrament occasion was held at Cane Ridge , Kentucky under Barton Stone , attracting perhaps as many as 20,000 people . Numerous Presbyterian , Baptist and Methodist ministers participated in the services . Thanks to such leaders as Barton W. Stone ( 1772 -- 1844 ) and Alexander Campbell ( 1788 -- 1866 ) , the camp meeting revival became a major mode of church expansion for the Methodists and Baptists . The Cumberland Presbyterian Church emerged in Kentucky . Cane Ridge was also instrumental in fostering what became known as the Restoration Movement . This was made up of non-denominational churches committed to what they saw as the original , fundamental Christianity of the New Testament . They were committed to individuals ' achieving a personal relationship with Christ . Churches with roots in this movement include the Churches of Christ , Christian Church ( Disciples of Christ ) , and the Evangelical Christian Church in Canada Church membership soars ( edit ) 1839 Methodist camp meeting The Methodist circuit riders and local Baptist preachers made enormous gains ; to a lesser extent the Presbyterians gained members , particularly with the Cumberland Presbyterian Church in sparsely settled areas . As a result , the numerical strength of the Baptists and Methodists rose relative to that of the denominations dominant in the colonial period -- the Anglicans , Presbyterians , Congregationalists . Among the new denominations that grew from the religious ferment of the Second Great Awakening are the Churches of Christ , Christian Church ( Disciples of Christ ) , the Seventh - day Adventist Church , and the Evangelical Christian Church in Canada . The converts during the Second Great Awakening were predominantly female . A 1932 source estimated at least three female converts to every two male converts between 1798 and 1826 . Young people ( those under 25 ) also converted in greater numbers , and were the first to convert .

Restoration movement ( edit ) Main article : Restoration Movement See also : Restorationism The idea of restoring a `` primitive '' form of Christianity grew in popularity in the U.S. after the American Revolution . This desire to restore a purer form of Christianity without an elaborate hierarchy contributed to the development of many groups during the Second Great Awakening , including the Mormons , Baptists and Shakers . Several factors made the restoration sentiment particularly appealing during this time period : To immigrants in the early 19th century , the land in the United States seemed pristine , edenic and undefiled -- `` the perfect place to recover pure , uncorrupted and original Christianity '' -- and the tradition - bound European churches seemed out of place in this new setting . A primitive faith based on the Bible alone promised a way to sidestep the competing claims of the many denominations available and for congregations to find assurance of being right without the security of an established national church . The Restoration Movement began during , and was greatly influenced by , the Second Great Awakening . While the leaders of one of the two primary groups making up this movement , Thomas Campbell and Alexander Campbell , resisted what they saw as the spiritual manipulation of the camp meetings , the revivals contributed to the development of the other major branch , led by Barton W. Stone . The Southern phase of the Awakening `` was an important matrix of Barton Stone 's reform movement '' and shaped the evangelistic techniques used by both Stone and the Campbells . Culture and society ( edit ) Efforts to apply Christian teaching to the resolution of social problems presaged the Social Gospel of the late 19th century . Converts were taught that to achieve salvation they needed not just to repent personal sin but also work for the moral perfection of society , which meant eradicating sin in all its forms . Thus , evangelical converts were leading figures in a variety of 19th century reform movements . Congregationalists set up missionary societies to evangelize the western territory of the northern tier . Members of these groups acted as apostles for the faith , and also as educators and exponents of northeastern urban culture . The Second Great Awakening served as an `` organizing process '' that created `` a religious and educational infrastructure '' across the western frontier that encompassed social networks , a religious journalism that provided mass communication , and church - related colleges . Publication and education societies promoted Christian education ; most notable among them was the American Bible Society , founded in 1816 . Women made up a large part of these voluntary societies . The Female Missionary Society and the Maternal Association , both active in Utica , NY , were highly organized and financially sophisticated women 's organizations responsible for many of the evangelical converts of the New York frontier . There were also societies that broadened their focus from traditional religious concerns to larger societal ones . These organizations were primarily sponsored by affluent women . They did not stem entirely from the Second Great Awakening , but the revivalist doctrine and the expectation that one 's conversion would lead to personal action accelerated the role of women 's social benevolence work . Social activism influenced abolition groups and supporters of the Temperance movement . They began efforts to reform prisons and care for the handicapped and mentally ill . They believed in the perfectibility of people and were highly moralistic in their endeavors .

Conversions and congregations started with the First Great Awakening , resulting in Baptist and Methodist preachers being authorized among slaves and free African Americans more than a decade before 1800 . `` Black Harry '' Hosier , an illiterate freedman who drove Francis Asbury on his circuits , proved to be able to memorize large passages of the Bible verbatim and became a cross-over success , as popular among white audiences as the black ones Asbury had originally intended for him to minister . His sermon at Thomas Chapel in Chapeltown , Delaware , in 1784 was the first to be delivered by a black preacher directly to a white congregation . Despite being called the `` greatest orator in America '' by Benjamin Rush and one of the best in the world by Bishop Thomas Coke , Hosier was repeatedly passed over for ordination and permitted no vote during his attendance at the Christmas Conference that formally established American Methodism . Richard Allen , the other black attendee , was ordained by the Methodists in 1799 , but his congregation of free African Americans in Philadelphia left the church there because of its discrimination . They founded the African Methodist Episcopal Church ( AME ) in Philadelphia . After first submitting to oversight by the established Methodist bishops , several AME congregations finally left to form the first independent African - American denomination in the United States in 1816 . Soon after , the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church ( AME Zion ) was founded as another denomination in New York City . Early Baptist congregations were formed by slaves and free African Americans in South Carolina and Virginia . Especially in the Baptist Church , African Americans were welcomed as members and as preachers . By the early 19th century , independent African American congregations numbered in the several hundred in some cities of the South , such as Charleston , South Carolina , and Richmond and Petersburg , Virginia . With the growth in congregations and churches , Baptist associations formed in Virginia , for instance , as well as Kentucky and other states . The revival also inspired slaves to demand freedom . In 1800 , out of African American revival meetings in Virginia , a plan for slave rebellion was devised by Gabriel Prosser , although the rebellion was discovered and crushed before it started . Despite white attempts to control independent African American congregations , especially after the Nat Turner Uprising of 1831 , a number of African American congregations managed to maintain their separation as independent congregations in Baptist associations . State legislatures passed laws requiring them always to have a white man present at their worship meetings . Women ( edit ) Women , who made up the majority of converts during the Awakening , played a crucial role in its development and focus . It is not clear why women converted in larger numbers than men . Various scholarly theories attribute the discrepancy to a reaction to the perceived sinfulness of youthful frivolity , an inherent greater sense of religiosity in women , a communal reaction to economic insecurity , or an assertion of the self in the face of patriarchal rule . Husbands , especially in the South , sometimes disapproved of their wives ' conversion , forcing women to choose between submission to God or their spouses . Church membership and religious activity gave women peer support and place for meaningful activity outside the home , providing many women with communal identity and shared experiences . Despite the predominance of women in the movement , they were not formally indoctrinated or given leading ministerial positions . However , women took other public roles ; for example , relaying testimonials about their conversion experience , or assisting sinners ( both male and female ) through the conversion process . Leaders such as Charles Finney saw women 's public prayer as a crucial aspect in preparing a community for revival and improving their efficacy in conversion . Women also took crucial roles in the conversion and religious upbringing of children . During the period of revival , mothers were seen as the moral and spiritual foundation of the family , and were thus tasked with instructing children in matters of religion and ethics . The greatest change in women 's roles stemmed from participation in newly formalized missionary and reform societies . Women 's prayer groups were an early and socially acceptable form of women 's organization . Through their positions in these organizations , women gained influence outside of the private sphere . Changing demographics of gender also affected religious doctrine . In an effort to give sermons that would resonate with the congregation , ministers stressed Christ 's humility and forgiveness , in what the historian Barbara Welter calls a `` feminization '' of Christianity .

White , Seventh - day Adventist Church Political implications ( edit ) Revivals and perfectionist hopes of improving individuals and society continued to increase from 1840 to 1865 across all major denominations , especially in urban areas . Evangelists often directly addressed issues such as slavery , greed , and poverty , laying the groundwork for later reform movements . The influence of the Awakening continued in the form of more secular movements . In the midst of shifts in theology and church polity , American Christians began progressive movements to reform society during this period . Known commonly as antebellum reform , this phenomenon included reforms in against the consumption of alcohol , for women 's rights and abolition of slavery , and a multitude of other issues faced by society . The religious enthusiasm of the Second Great Awakening was echoed by the new political enthusiasm of the Second Party System . More active participation in politics by more segments of the population brought religious and moral issues into the political sphere . The spirit of evangelical humanitarian reforms was carried on in the antebellum Whig party . Historians stress the understanding common among participants of reform as being a part of God 's plan . As a result , local churches saw their roles in society in purifying the world through the individuals to whom they could bring salvation , and through changes in the law and the creation of institutions . Interest in transforming the world was applied to mainstream political action , as temperance activists , antislavery advocates , and proponents of other variations of reform sought to implement their beliefs into national politics . While Protestant religion had previously played an important role on the American political scene , the Second Great Awakening strengthened the role it would play .

Catch Me If You Can - wikipedia Catch Me If You Can Jump to : navigation , search This article is about the 2002 film . For other uses , see Catch Me If You Can ( disambiguation ) . Catch Me If You Can Theatrical release poster Directed by Steven Spielberg Produced by Steven Spielberg Walter F. Parkes Screenplay by Jeff Nathanson Based on Catch Me If You Can by Frank Abagnale and Stan Redding Starring Leonardo DiCaprio Tom Hanks Music by John Williams Cinematography Janusz Kamiński Edited by Michael Kahn Production company Amblin Entertainment Parkes / MacDonald Productions Distributed by DreamWorks Pictures Release date December 25 , 2002 ( 2002 - 12 - 25 ) Running time 141 minutes Country United States Language English Budget $52 million Box office $352.1 million Catch Me If You Can is a 2002 American biographical crime film directed and co-produced by Steven Spielberg from a screenplay by Jeff Nathanson . The film is based on the life of Frank Abagnale , who , before his 19th birthday , successfully performed cons worth millions of dollars by posing as a Pan American World Airways pilot , a Georgia doctor and a Louisiana parish prosecutor . His primary crime was check fraud ; he became so experienced that the FBI eventually turned to him for help in catching other checking forgers . The film stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks , with Christopher Walken , Martin Sheen , and Nathalie Baye in supporting roles . Development for the film started in 1980 , but did not progress until 1997 , when the film rights to Abagnale 's book were sold to Spielberg 's DreamWorks . David Fincher , Gore Verbinski , Lasse Hallström , Miloš Forman , and Cameron Crowe had all been possible candidates for director before Spielberg decided to direct . Filming took place from February to May 2002 . The film was a financial and critical success , and was received positively by both critics and Abagnale .

When Frank Sr. is denied a business loan at Chase Manhattan Bank due to unknown difficulties with the IRS , the family is forced to move from their large home to a small apartment . Paula carries on an affair with Jack , a friend of her husband . Meanwhile , Frank poses as a substitute teacher in his French class . Frank 's parents file for divorce , and Frank runs away . When he runs out of money , he begins relying on confidence scams to get by . Soon , Frank 's cons increase and he even impersonates an airline pilot . He forges Pan Am payroll checks and succeeds in stealing over $2.8 million . Meanwhile , Carl Hanratty , an FBI bank fraud agent , begins tracking Frank . Carl and Frank meet at a hotel , where Frank convinces Carl his name is Barry Allen of the Secret Service , and that he was also after the fraud . Frank leaves , Carl angrily realizing a minute too late that he has been fooled . Later , at Christmas , Carl is still at work when Frank calls him , attempting to apologize for duping Carl . Carl rejects his apology and tells him he will soon be caught , but laughs when he realizes Frank actually called him because he has no one else to talk to . Frank hangs up , and Carl continues to investigate , suddenly realizing ( thanks to a waiter ) that the name `` Barry Allen '' is from the Flash comic books and that Frank is actually a teenager . Frank , meanwhile , has expanded his con to include the identities of a doctor and lawyer . While playing Dr. Frank Conners , he falls in love with Brenda . While asking her father 's permission to marry her , he admits the truth about himself and asks for help with the Louisiana State Bar exam . Carl tracks him to his engagement party and Frank is able to sneak out a bedroom window minutes before Carl bursts in . Before leaving , Frank makes Brenda promise to meet him in Miami two days later so they can elope . Frank sees her waiting for him two days later , but also notices plainclothes agents waiting to arrest him ; realizing he has been set up , he escapes on a flight to Europe . Seven months later , Carl shows his boss that Frank has been forging checks all over western Europe and asks permission to go to Europe to look for him . When his boss refuses , Carl brings Frank 's checks to printing professionals who claim that the checks were printed in France . From an interview with Frank 's mother , Carl remembers that she was actually born in Montrichard , France . He goes there and locates Frank , and tells him that the French police will kill him if he does not go with Carl quietly . Frank assumes he is lying at first , but Carl promises Frank he would never lie to him , and Carl takes him outside , where the French police escort him to prison . The scene then flashes forward to a plane returning Frank home from prison , where Carl informs him that his father has died . Grief - stricken , Frank escapes from the plane and goes back to his old house , where he finds his mother with the man she left his father for , as well as a girl who Frank realizes is his half - sister . Frank gives himself up and is sentenced to 12 years in prison , getting visits from time to time from Carl . When Frank points out how one of the checks Carl is carrying as evidence is fake , Carl convinces the FBI to offer Frank a deal by which he can live out the remainder of his sentence working for the bank fraud department of the FBI , which Frank accepts . While working at the FBI , Frank misses the thrill of the chase and even attempts to fly as an airline pilot again . He is cornered by Carl , who insists that Frank will return to the FBI job since no one is chasing him . On the following Monday , Carl is nervous that Frank has not yet arrived at work . However , Frank eventually arrives and they discuss their next case . The ending credits reveal that Frank has been happily married for 26 years , has three sons , lives in the Midwest , is still good friends with Carl , has caught some of the world 's most elusive money forgers , and earns millions of dollars each year because of his work creating unforgeable checks .

The real Frank Abagnale appears in a cameo as a French police officer arresting his character . Production ( edit ) Development ( edit ) Frank Abagnale sold the film rights to his autobiography in 1980 . Executive Producer Michel Shane purchased the film rights in 1990 , for Paramount Pictures . By December 1997 , Barry Kemp purchased the film rights from Shane , bringing the project to DreamWorks , with Jeff Nathanson writing the script . By April 2000 , David Fincher was attached to direct over the course of a few months , but dropped out in favor of Panic Room . In July 2000 , Leonardo DiCaprio had entered discussions to star , with Gore Verbinski to direct . Steven Spielberg signed on as producer , and filming was set to begin in March 2001 . Casting ( edit ) Verbinski cast James Gandolfini as Carl Hanratty , Ed Harris as Frank Abagnale , Sr. , and Chloë Sevigny as Brenda Strong . Verbinski dropped out because of DiCaprio 's commitment on Gangs of New York . Lasse Hallström was in negotiations to direct by May 2001 , but dropped out in July 2001 . At this stage Harris and Sevigny left the film , but Gandolfini was still attached . Spielberg , co-founder of DreamWorks , offered the job of director to Miloš Forman , and considered hiring Cameron Crowe . During this negotiation period , Spielberg began to consider directing the film himself , eventually dropping projects such as Big Fish and Memoirs of a Geisha . Spielberg officially committed to directing in August 2001 . The search for Strong 's portrayer lasted months but Amy Adams was eventually cast . Spielberg `` loved '' her tape and producer Walter F. Parkes commented that she was `` as fresh and honest as anyone we 'd seen , '' which was an important element in the role . Christopher Walken was cast as Frank Abagnale , Sr. following Parkes ' suggestion . Martin Sheen played Roger Strong as he had `` intimidating presence '' . Spielberg wanted a French actress to portray Paula Abagnale to stay true to the facts . He asked for the help of Brian De Palma , who was living in Paris and he did tests with several actresses such as Nathalie Baye . Spielberg had seen Jennifer Garner on Alias and wanted her to play a small role in the film due to her busy schedule . Filming ( edit ) The original start date was January 2002 , but was pushed to February 7 in Los Angeles , California . Locations included Burbank , Downey , New York City , LA / Ontario International Airport ( which doubled for Miami International Airport ) , Quebec City and Montreal . The film was shot in 147 locations in only 52 days . DiCaprio reflected , `` Scenes that we thought would take three days took an afternoon '' . Filming ran from April 25 -- 30 in Park Avenue , just outside the Waldorf - Astoria Hotel . Production moved to Orange , New Jersey and returned to Brooklyn for bank and courthouse scenes . Shooting also took place at the TWA Flight Center at John F. Kennedy International Airport . Quebec City was chosen for its European character and French feel . Place Royale , within Old Quebec , stands for Montrichard -- the church in the background of the arrest scene is Notre - Dame - des - Victoires . Filming ended on May 12 in Montreal . Music ( edit ) Main article : Catch Me If You Can ( soundtrack ) The film 's soundtrack was released on December 10 , 2002 by DreamWorks Records . The original score was composed and conducted by John Williams . Historical accuracy ( edit ) Despite the various changes from real - life events , Abagnale believed Spielberg was the only filmmaker who `` could do this film justice '' . However , Abagnale had little involvement with the film . In November 2001 Abagnale reported , `` I 've never met nor spoken to Steven Spielberg and I have not read the script . I prefer not to . I understand that they now portray my father in a better light , as he really was . Steven Spielberg has told the screenplay writer ( Jeff Nathanson ) that he wants complete accuracy in the relationships and actual scams that I perpetrated . I hope in the end the movie will be entertaining , exciting , funny and bring home an important message about family , childhood and divorce '' . The real Abagnale never saw his father again after he ran away from home . Spielberg `` wanted to continue to have that connection where Frank kept trying to please his father ; by making him proud of him ; by seeing him in the uniform , the Pan-American uniform '' . However , Abagnale praised the idea . `` Even though I did n't see my dad again , every night after living a brilliant day and meeting many women , and making much money , I 'd come back alone to a hotel room and I would just think of my mom and dad and fantasize about getting them back together again , and cry . It 's the justification of a fantasy . '' In the shooting script the character was referred to as Joseph Shea , but was changed to Carl Hanratty for unknown reasons . Themes ( edit ) Catch Me if You Can deals with themes of broken homes and troubled childhoods . Spielberg 's parents divorced when he was a teenager , similar to Frank Abagnale 's situation . In the film , Carl Hanratty is also divorced from his wife , who lives with their daughter in Chicago . `` Some of my films have had to do with broken homes and people on the run from their sad pasts '' , Spielberg stated . `` But there are those strands that got me to say : you know , there 's something also about me that I can say through the telling of this kind of lighthearted story '' . Spielberg also wanted to create a film that sympathized with a crook . He explained , `` Frank was a 21st century genius working within the innocence of the mid ' 60s , when people were more trusting than they are now . I do n't think this is the kind of movie where somebody could say , ' I have a career plan . ' '' Release ( edit ) `` I know that Hollywood has made a number of changes to the story , but I am honored that Steven Spielberg , Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks participated in the making of the movie inspired by my life . It is important to understand that it is just a movie , not a biographical documentary . '' -- Frank Abagnale 's reaction to the film Game Show Network aired the 1977 episode of the television game show To Tell the Truth that featured Frank Abagnale . Segments were shown on December 29 , 2002 and January 1 , 2003 as promotion . The marketing department was careful to market the film as `` inspired by a true story '' in order to avoid controversy similar to that surrounding A Beautiful Mind ( 2001 ) and The Hurricane ( 1999 ) , both of which deviated from history . The premiere took place at Westwood , Los Angeles , California on December 18 , 2002 . Box Office ( edit ) Catch Me If You Can was released on December 25 , 2002 , earning slightly above $30 million in 3,225 theaters during its opening weekend . The film went on to gross $164.6 million in North America and $187.5 million in foreign countries , coming at a worldwide total of $352.1 million . The film was a financial success , recouping the $52 million budget six times over . Catch Me If You Can was the eleventh highest - grossing film of 2002 . Minority Report ( also directed by Spielberg ) was tenth highest . Critical response ( edit ) On Rotten Tomatoes , the film has a certified fresh rating of 96 % , based on 197 reviews , with an average rating of 7.9 / 10 . The site 's critical consensus reading , `` With help from a strong performance by Leonardo DiCaprio as real - life wunderkind con artist Frank Abagnale , Steven Spielberg crafts a film that 's stylish , breezily entertaining , and surprisingly sweet . '' On Metacritic the film has a score of 76 out of 100 , based on 38 critics , indicating `` generally favorable reviews '' . Roger Ebert heavily praised DiCaprio 's performance , and concluded `` This is not a major Spielberg film , although it is an effortlessly watchable one '' . Mick LaSalle said it was `` not Spielberg 's best movie , but one of his smoothest and maybe his friendliest . The colorful cinematography , smart performances and brisk tempo suggest a filmmaker subordinating every other impulse to the task of manufacturing pleasure . '' Stephen Hunter believed DiCaprio shows `` the range and ease and cleverness that Martin Scorsese so underutilized in Gangs of New York '' . James Berardinelli observed , `` Catch Me if You Can never takes itself or its subjects too seriously , and contains more genuinely funny material than about 90 % of the so - called ' comedies ' found in multiplexes these days '' . In addition Berardinelli praised John Williams ' film score , which he felt was `` more intimate and jazzy than his usual material , evoking ( intentionally ) Henry Mancini '' . Peter Travers was one of few who gave the film a negative review . Travers considered Catch Me if You Can to be `` bogged down over 140 minutes . A film that took off like a hare on speed ends like a winded tortoise . '' At the 75th Academy Awards , Christopher Walken and John Williams were nominated for Best Supporting Actor and Best Original Score . Walken won the same category at the 56th British Academy Film Awards , while Williams , costume designer Mary Zophres and screenwriter Jeff Nathanson received nominations . DiCaprio was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Motion Picture -- Drama . Williams also earned a Grammy Award nomination . Elements of the film were later parodied in The Simpsons episode `` Catch ' Em If You Can '' . Home media ( edit ) Catch Me If You Can was released on DVD on May 6 , 2003 and on Blu - ray on December 4 , 2012 .

History ( edit ) Main article : History of Toyota 1930s ( edit ) In 1924 , Sakichi Toyoda invented the Toyoda Model G Automatic Loom . The principle of jidoka , which means the machine stops itself when a problem occurs , became later a part of the Toyota Production System . Looms were built on a small production line . In 1929 , the patent for the automatic loom was sold to the British company Platt Brothers , generating the starting capital for the automobile development . Mass production of Toyoda automated loom , displayed at the Toyota Museum in Nagakute - cho , Aichi - gun , Aichi Pref . Japan The production of Toyota automobiles was started in 1933 as a division of Toyoda Automatic Loom Works devoted to the production of automobiles under the direction of the founder 's son , Kiichiro Toyoda . Its first vehicles were the A1 passenger car and the G1 in 1935 . The Toyota Motor Co. was established as an independent company in 1937 Toyoda Standard Sedan AA 1936 Vehicles were originally sold under the name `` Toyoda '' ( トヨダ ) , from the family name of the company 's founder , Kiichirō Toyoda . In April 1936 , Toyoda 's first passenger car , the Model AA , was completed . The sales price was 3,350 yen , 400 yen cheaper than Ford or GM cars . House of Toyota founder Kiichiro Toyoda , near Toyota City In September 1936 , the company ran a public competition to design a new logo . Of 27,000 entries , the winning entry was the three Japanese katakana letters for `` Toyoda '' in a circle . But Rizaburo Toyoda , who had married into the family and was not born with that name , preferred `` Toyota '' ( トヨタ ) because it took eight brush strokes ( a lucky number ) to write in Japanese , was visually simpler ( leaving off the diacritic at the end ) , and with a voiceless consonant instead of a voiced one ( voiced consonants are considered to have a `` murky '' or `` muddy '' sound compared to voiceless consonants , which are `` clear '' ) . Inside the house of Toyota founder Kiichiro Toyoda , near Toyota City Since toyoda literally means `` fertile rice paddies '' , changing the name also prevented the company from being associated with old - fashioned farming . The newly formed word was trademarked and the company was registered in August 1937 as the Toyota Motor Company . The Supra JZA80 has now become an automobile icon the world over . Rivaling Nissan 's GTR . The MR2 SW20 , a mid-engine sports car from the 1990s . First - generation Toyopet Crown Model RSD ( 1955 / 1 -- 1958 / 10 ) Toyota at the Rally Dakar , 1992 1940s -- 1950s ( edit ) From September 1947 , Toyota 's small - sized vehicles were sold under the name `` Toyopet '' ( トヨペット ) . The first vehicle sold under this name was the Toyopet SA , but it also included vehicles such as the Toyopet SB light truck , Toyopet Stout light truck , Toyopet Crown , Toyopet Master , and the Toyopet Corona . The word `` Toyopet ( Japanese article ) '' was a nickname given to the Toyota SA due to its small size , as the result of a naming contest the Toyota Company organized in 1947 . However , when Toyota eventually entered the American market in 1957 with the Crown , the name was not well received due to connotations of toys and pets . The name was soon dropped for the American market , but continued in other markets until the mid-1960s . 1960s -- 1970s ( edit ) By the early 1960s , the US had begun placing stiff import tariffs on certain vehicles . The so - called `` chicken tax '' of 1964 placed a 25 % tax on imported light trucks . In response to the tariff , Toyota , Nissan Motor Co. and Honda Motor Co. began building plants in the US by the early 1980s . 1980s ( edit ) With over 40 million sold , the Corolla is one of the most popular and best selling cars in the world . Toyota received its first Japanese Quality Control Award at the start of the 1980s and began participating in a wide variety of motorsports . Due to the 1973 oil crisis , consumers in the lucrative US market began turning to small cars with better fuel economy . American car manufacturers had considered small economy cars to be an entry - level product , and their small vehicles employed a low level of quality to keep the price low . Conservative Toyota held on to rear - wheel - drive designs for longer than most ; while a clear first in overall production they were only third in production of front - wheel - drive cars in 1983 , behind Nissan and Honda . In part due to this , Nissan 's Sunny managed to squeeze by the Corolla in numbers built that year . In 1982 , the Toyota Motor Company and Toyota Motor Sales merged into one company , the Toyota Motor Corporation . Two years later , Toyota entered into a joint venture with General Motors called the New United Motor Manufacturing , Inc , NUMMI , operating an automobile - manufacturing plant in Fremont , California . The factory was an old General Motors plant that had been closed for two years . Toyota then started to establish new brands at the end of the 1980s , with the launch of their luxury division Lexus in 1989 . 1990s ( edit ) In the 1990s , Toyota began to branch out from producing mostly compact cars by adding many larger and more luxurious vehicles to its lineup , including a full - sized pickup , the T100 ( and later the Tundra ) , several lines of SUVs , a sport version of the Camry , known as the Camry Solara , and the Scion brand . They would also launch newer and arguably more iconic iterations of their sports cars , namely the MR2 , Celica , and Supra during this era , all of which have already become icons of the 1990s . With a major presence in Europe , due to the success of Toyota Team Europe , the corporation decided to set up Toyota Motor Europe Marketing and Engineering , TMME , to help market vehicles in the continent . Two years later , Toyota set up a base in the United Kingdom , TMUK , as the company 's cars had become very popular among British drivers . Bases in Indiana , Virginia , and Tianjin were also set up . In 1999 , the company decided to list itself on the New York and London Stock Exchanges . 2000s ( edit ) In 2001 , Toyota 's Toyo Trust and Banking merged with two other banks to form UFJ Bank , which was accused of corruption by Japan 's government for making bad loans to alleged Yakuza crime syndicates with executives accused of blocking Financial Service Agency inspections . The UFJ was listed among Fortune Magazine 's largest money - losing corporations in the world , with Toyota 's chairman serving as a director . At the time , the UFJ was one of the largest shareholders of Toyota . As a result of Japan 's banking crisis , UFJ merged with the Bank of Tokyo - Mitsubishi to become the Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group . In 2002 , Toyota managed to enter a Formula One works team and establish joint ventures with French motoring companies Citroën and Peugeot a year after Toyota started producing cars in France . Toyota ranked eighth on Forbes 2000 list of the world 's leading companies for the year 2005 but slid to 55 for 2011 . The company was number one in global automobile sales for the first quarter of 2008 . In 2007 , Toyota released an update of its full - sized truck , the Tundra , produced in two American factories , one in Texas and one in Indiana . Motor Trend named the Tundra `` Truck of the Year '' , and the 2007 Toyota Camry `` Car of the Year '' for 2007 . It also began the construction of two new factories , one to build the RAV4 in Woodstock , Ontario , Canada , and the other to build the Toyota Prius in Blue Springs , Mississippi , USA . This plant was originally intended to build the Toyota Highlander , but Toyota decided to use the plant in Princeton , Indiana , USA , instead . The company has also found recent success with its smaller models -- the Corolla and Yaris . 2010s ( edit ) In 2011 , Toyota , along with large parts of the Japanese automotive industry , suffered from a series of natural disasters . The 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami led to a severe disruption of the supplier base and a drop in production and exports . Severe flooding during the 2011 monsoon season in Thailand affected Japanese automakers that had chosen Thailand as a production base . Toyota is estimated to have lost production of 150,000 units to the tsunami and production of 240,000 units to the floods . On February 10 , 2014 , it was announced that Toyota would cease manufacturing vehicles and engines in Australia by the end of 2017 . The decision was based on the unfavourable Australian dollar making exports not viable , the high cost of local manufacture and the high amount of competition in a relatively small local market . The company plans to consolidate its corporate functions in Melbourne by the end of 2017 . The head office will remain in Port Melbourne and the Altona plant will be retained for other functions . The workforce is expected to be reduced from 3,900 to 1,300 . The automaker narrowly topped global sales for the first half of 2014 , selling 5.1 million vehicles in the six months ending June 30 , 2014 , an increase of 3.8 % on the same period the previous year . Volkswagen AG , which recorded sales of 5.07 million vehicles , was close behind . In August 2014 , Toyota announced it would be cutting its spare - parts prices in China by up to 35 % . The company admitted the move was in response to a probe foreshadowed earlier in the month by China 's National Development and Reform Commission of Toyota 's Lexus spare - parts policies , as part of an industry - wide investigation into what the Chinese regulator considers exorbitantly high prices being charged by automakers for spare parts and after - sales servicing . In November 2015 , the company announced that it would invest US $1 billion over the next 5 years into artificial intelligence and robotics research . In 2016 , Toyota invested in Uber . In March 2016 , Toyota partnered with Yanmar to create a fibreglass pleasure boat using Yanmar outboard marine diesel engines or Toyota inboard engines . Recalls ( edit ) 2009 ( edit ) From November 2009 through 2010 , Toyota recalled more than 9 million cars and trucks worldwide in several recall campaigns , and briefly halted production and sales . Toyota initiated the recalls , the first two with the assistance of the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration ( NHTSA ) , after reports that several vehicles experienced unintended acceleration . Main article : 2009 -- 11 Toyota vehicle recalls 2012 ( edit ) In October 2012 , Toyota announced a recall of 7.43 million vehicles worldwide to fix malfunctioning power window switches , the largest recall since that of Ford Motor Company in 1996 . The move came after a series of recalls between 2009 and 2011 in which it pulled back around 10 million cars amidst claims of faulty mechanics . In March 2014 , Toyota agreed to pay a fine of US $1.2 billion for concealing information and misleading the public about the safety issues behind the recalls on Toyota and Lexus vehicles affected by unintended acceleration . 2014 ( edit ) In early November 2014 , Toyota USA enlisted a recall involving defective inflaters and propellant devices that may deploy improperly in the event of a crash , shooting metal fragments into vehicle occupants . More than 7 million vehicles are potentially affected in the United States . This recall only affects vehicles equipped with Takata airbags released after the year 2000 in North America . The airbags were manufactured by Takata automotive manufacturing . Toyota is offering a free repair to all affected vehicles worldwide . The fault in the Takata air bags also affected other North American automobile manufacturers . Logo and branding ( edit ) Employee at Toyota Museum explains development of Toyota name and brand In 1936 , Toyota entered the passenger car market with its Model AA and held a competition to establish a new logo emphasizing speed for its new product line . After receiving 27,000 entries , one was selected that additionally resulted in a change of its moniker to `` Toyota '' from the family name `` Toyoda '' . The new name was believed to sound better , and its eight - stroke count in the Japanese language was associated with wealth and good fortune . The original logo is no longer found on its vehicles but remains the corporate emblem used in Japan . Still , no guidelines existed for the use of the brand name , so `` TOYOTA '' , which was used throughout most of the world , led to inconsistencies in its worldwide marketing campaigns . To remedy this , Toyota introduced a new worldwide logo in October 1989 to commemorate the 50th year of the company , and to differentiate it from the newly released luxury Lexus brand . The logo made its debut on the 1989 Toyota Celsior and quickly gained worldwide recognition . The three ovals in the new logo combine to form the letter `` T '' , which stands for Toyota . The overlapping of the two perpendicular ovals inside the larger oval represents the mutually beneficial relationship and trust between the customer and the company while the larger oval surrounding both of these inner ovals represents the `` global expansion of Toyota 's technology and unlimited potential for the future '' . Hubcap of 1936 Toyota AA , with the old `` Toyoda '' name The new logo started appearing on all printed material , advertisements , dealer signage , and the vehicles themselves in 1990 . In predominantly Chinese - speaking countries or regions using traditional Chinese characters , e.g. Hong Kong and Taiwan , Toyota is known as `` 豐田 '' . In Chinese - speaking countries using simplified Chinese characters ( e.g. China ) , Toyota is known as `` 丰田 '' ( pronounced as Fēngtián in Mandarin Chinese and Hɔng Tshan in Minnanese ) . These are the same characters as the founding family 's name `` Toyoda '' in Japanese . Logo until 1989 , now still used as a corporate logo Logo since 1989 Japan ( edit ) Toyota Store Aichi Toyopet Store , Saitama Corolla Store Kyotanabe Netz Store , Tsurumi - ku , Osaka Wikimedia Commons has media related to Toyota dealerships . In Japan , Toyota currently maintains separate dealership sales channels . The first sales channel established in 1946 called `` Toyota Store '' ( トヨタ 店 Toyota Mise ) sells large luxury sedans such as the Toyota Century , and the Toyota Crown . In 1955 , the `` Toyopet Store '' ( トヨペット 店 Toyopetto - ten ) arrived , originally established to sell the Toyota Corona and the Toyopet ToyoAce truck . ( Toyota 's five channel dealerships in Japan chronology in Japanese . ) Toyota sought out to use a hierarchical marketing approach , similar to methods used in North America , but implemented it at all of its dealership chains , with some models being exclusive to particular locations . Toyota operated a commercial dealership called Toyota Diesel Shop ( トヨタ ディーゼル 店 Toyota Dīzeru - ten ) from 1957 until 1988 that sold various commercial platform trucks , buses , and forklifts , such as the Toyota Dyna and the Toyota Coaster . Hino products were sold at specific Hino locations and shared at Toyota Diesel Store locations after Toyota acquired the company in 1967 . Starting in 1980 , the Diesel Shop also sold the Starlet , Corolla , Corona , Vista , and Crown installed with diesel engines . When the Toyota Diesel Store was disbanded , commercial products were divided between Toyota Store and Toyopet Store locations . Currently , the `` Toyota Corolla Store '' ( トヨタ カローラ 店 Toyota Karōra - ten ) was renamed from the `` Toyota Publica Store '' ( トヨタ パブリカ 店 Toyota Paburika - ten ) , which was established to sell the Toyota Publica in 1961 , then renamed to sell the Toyota Corolla in 1966 . In 1980 , the `` Toyota Vista Store '' replaced the `` Toyota Auto Store '' ( トヨタ オート 店 Toyota Ōto - ten ) sales network that sold the Corolla companion , called the Toyota Sprinter established in 1967 . The `` Vista '' name was used on a new Camry - clone , called the Toyota Vista . The Toyota Vista network was replaced with two networks ; `` Toyota NETZ '' ( ネッツ 店 Nettsu - ten ) in August 1998 , and Lexus in 2004 . Some former Vista models were rebranded as Lexus ( レクサス Rekusasu ) , such as the Altezza and the Aristo , while other products have been taken over by the `` Toyota NETZ '' , which was already selling the Toyota ist and the Toyota RAV4 . `` NETZ '' is an acronym for `` Network of Energetic Teams for Zenith '' . In 2012 , selected Japanese dealership locations were given a special designation called `` Area 86 '' that resembled the North American Toyota network , called Scion , to sell the Toyota 86 , building on the marketing approach started with WiLL branded products . As of 2017 , the `` Area 86 '' network was rebranded as `` GR '' for Gazoo Racing , sharing a similar approach to the performance division Toyota Racing Development or `` TRD '' , providing various upgrades for the 86 , Vitz , Prius , Mark X , Harrier , Noah and Voxy .

In March 2015 , Toyota became a sponsor partner for the Olympic Games , in the form of supplying vehicles and communications between vehicles until 2024 . Company strategy ( edit ) Main article : The Toyota Way Toyota 's management philosophy has evolved from the company 's origins and has been reflected in the terms `` Lean Manufacturing '' and Just In Time Production , which it was instrumental in developing . Toyota 's managerial values and business methods are known collectively as the Toyota Way . In April 2001 , Toyota adopted the `` Toyota Way 2001 '' , an expression of values and conduct guidelines that all Toyota employees should embrace . Under the two headings of Respect for People and Continuous Improvement , Toyota summarizes its values and conduct guidelines with these five principles : Challenge Kaizen ( improvement ) Genchi genbutsu ( go and see ) Respect Teamwork According to external observers , the Toyota Way has four components : Long - term thinking as a basis for management decisions A process for problem - solving Adding value to the organization by developing its people Recognizing that continuously solving root problems drives organizational learning The Toyota Way incorporates the Toyota Production System . Operations ( edit ) Main article : Toyota Production System New Toyota factory in Ohira , near Sendai , Miyagi Prefecture , Japan : A month after this picture was taken , the region was devastated by the March 11 earthquake and tsunami . The plant was only lightly damaged , but remained closed more than a month , mainly due to lack of supplies and energy , in addition to a badly damaged Sendai port . Toyota has long been recognized as an industry leader in manufacturing and production . Three stories of its origin have been found , one that they studied Piggly - Wiggly 's just - in - time distribution system , one that they followed the writings of W. Edwards Deming , and one that they were given the principles from a WWII US government training program ( Training Within Industry ) . As described by external observers of Toyota , the principles of the Toyota Way are : Base your management decisions on a long - term philosophy , even at the expense of short - term goals Create continuous process flow to bring problems to the surface Use `` pull '' systems to avoid overproduction Level out the workload Build a culture of stopping to fix problems , to get quality right the first time Standardized tasks are the foundation for continuous improvement and employee empowerment Use visual control so no problems are hidden Use only reliable , thoroughly tested technology that serves your people and processes Grow leaders who thoroughly understand the work , live the philosophy , and teach it to others Develop exceptional people and teams who follow your company 's philosophy Respect your extended network of partners and suppliers by challenging them and helping them improve Go and see for yourself to thoroughly understand the situation ( genchi genbutsu ) Make decisions slowly by consensus , thoroughly considering all options ; implement decisions rapidly Become a learning organization through relentless reflection and continuous improvement ( kaizen ) Toyota Pavilion at the Expo in Aichi Toyota has grown from its origins in Japan during the 1930s to become a large multinational corporation . It displaced GM and became the world 's largest automobile maker for the year 2008 . It held the title of the most profitable automobile maker ( US $11 billion in 2006 ) along with increasing sales in , among other countries , the United States . The world headquarters of Toyota are located in its home country in Toyota City , Japan . Its subsidiary , Toyota Financial Services sells financing and participates in other lines of business . Toyota brands include Scion and Lexus and the corporation is part of the Toyota Group . Toyota also owns 51 % of Daihatsu , and 16.7 % of Fuji Heavy Industries , which manufactures Subaru vehicles . They also acquired 5.9 % of Isuzu Motors Ltd. on November 7 , 2006 , and will be introducing Isuzu diesel technology into their products . Toyota has introduced new technologies , including one of the first mass - produced hybrid gasoline - electric vehicles , of which it says it has sold 2 million globally as of 2010 , Advanced Parking Guidance System ( automatic parking ) , a four - speed electronically controlled automatic with buttons for power and economy shifting , and an eight - speed automatic transmission . Toyota , and Toyota - produced Lexus and Scion automobiles , consistently rank near the top in certain quality and reliability surveys , primarily J.D. Power and Consumer Reports although they led in automobile recalls for the first time in 2009 . In 2005 , Toyota , combined with its half - owned subsidiary Daihatsu Motor Company , produced 8.54 million vehicles , about 500,000 fewer than the number produced by GM that year . Toyota has a large market share in the United States , but a small market share in Europe . It also sells vehicles in Africa and is a market leader in Australia . Due to its Daihatsu subsidiary , it has significant market shares in several fast - growing Southeast Asian countries . According to the 2008 Fortune Global 500 , Toyota is the fifth largest company in the world . Since the recession of 2001 , it has gained market share in the United States . Toyota 's market share struggles in Europe where its Lexus brand has 0.3 % market share , compared to nearly 2 % market share as the US luxury segment leader . In the first three months of 2007 , Toyota together with its half - owned subsidiary Daihatsu reported number one sales of 2.348 million units . Toyota 's brand sales had risen 9.2 % largely on demand for Corolla and Camry sedans . The difference in performance was largely attributed to surging demand for fuel - efficient vehicles . In November 2006 , Toyota Motor Manufacturing Texas added a facility in San Antonio . Toyota has experienced quality problems and was reprimanded by the government in Japan for its recall practices . In 2007 , Toyota maintained over 16 % of the US market share and was listed second only to GM in terms of volume . Toyota Century Royal is the official state car of the Japanese imperial family , namely for the current Emperor of Japan . Toyota was hit by the global financial crisis of 2008 as it was forced in December 2008 to forecast its first annual loss in 70 years . In January 2009 , it announced the closure of all of its Japanese plants for 11 days to reduce output and stocks of unsold vehicles . Akio Toyoda became the new president and CEO of the company on June 23 , 2009 , by replacing Katsuaki Watanabe , who became the new vice chairman by replacing Katsuhiro Nakagawa .

IIMV called for diesel engines to be made in Thailand , gasoline engines in Indonesia , and manual transmissions in India and the Philippines , for supply to the countries charged with vehicle production . For vehicle assembly , Toyota would use plants in Thailand , Indonesia , Argentina , and South Africa . These four main IIMV production and export bases supply Asia , Europe , Africa , Oceania , Latin America , and the Middle East with three vehicles : The Toyota Hilux ( Vigo ) , the Fortuner , and the Toyota Innova . North America ( edit ) Main article : Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing North America Toyota Motor North America headquarters is located in Plano , Texas , and operates as a holding company in North America .

Toyota is also pushing hybrid vehicles in the US such as the Prius , Camry Hybrid , Highlander Hybrid , and various Lexus products . Currently , Toyota has no plans to offer diesel motor options in its North American products , including the light - duty pickup trucks . Europe ( edit ) Main article : Toyota Motor Europe Australia ( edit ) Main article : Toyota Australia In 1963 , Australia was one of the first countries to assemble Toyotas outside Japan . However , in February 2014 , Toyota was the last of Australia 's major automakers to announce the end of production in Australia .

All - electric vehicles ( edit ) See also : Toyota RAV4 EV and Toyota iQ EV The first generation Toyota RAV4 EV was leased in the United States from 1997 to 2003 , and at the lessees ' request , many units were sold after the vehicle was discontinued . A total of 1,484 were leased and / or sold in California to meet the state 's CARB mandate for zero - emissions vehicles . As of mid-2012 , there were almost 500 units still in use . First generation Toyota RAV4 EV Second generation Toyota RAV4 EV In May 2010 , Toyota launched a collaboration with Tesla Motors to create electric vehicles . Toyota agreed to purchase US $50 million of Tesla common stock subsequent to the closing of Tesla 's planned initial public offering . Toyota , with the assistance of Tesla , built 35 converted RAV4s ( Phase Zero vehicles ) for a demonstration and evaluation program that ran through 2011 . The lithium metal - oxide battery and other power train components were supplied by Tesla Motors . Four years later , Toyota , along with Daimler , began to unwind its position in Tesla . Toyota and Daimler made more than $1 bln from the investment . The Toyota RAV4 EV Concept was released in September 2012 . The RAV4 EV was assembled at Toyota 's facility in Woodstock , Ontario along with the regular gasoline version . Tesla built the electric powertrain at its plant at Tesla Factory in Fremont , California , and then shipped them to Canada . The RAV4 EV was sold only in California , beginning with the San Francisco Bay Area , Los Angeles / Orange County , and San Diego . Production was limited to 2,600 units during a three - year period . As of 31 December 2015 , a total of 2,340 RAV4 EVs were sold in the U.S. to retail customers . Production ended in September 2014 . A prototype of the Toyota iQ EV ( Scion iQ EV in the US ) was exhibited at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show .

The U.S. launch of the Scion iQ EV was announced for 2012 , and according to Toyota , for the initial roll - out the iQ EV would not be available to individual consumers , instead , the carmaker decided to focus on fleet customers and car sharing programs . The iQ EV was scheduled to be produced at Toyota 's Takaoka Plant in Toyota City beginning in August 2012 and the initial production was planned to be limited to 600 units , with 400 staying in Japan , 100 units destined to the U.S. , and the other 100 for Europe . In September 2012 , Toyota announced that due to customers ' concerns about range and charging time , the production of the Scion iQ ( Toyota eQ in Japan ) will be limited to about 100 units for special fleet use in Japan and the U.S. only . The iQ EV / eQ was scheduled to be released in both countries in December 2012 . Toyota I - Road in Grenoble The first 30 iQ EVs were delivered in the U.S. to the University of California , Irvine in March 2013 for use in its Zero Emission Vehicle - Network Enabled Transport ( ZEV - NET ) carsharing fleet . Since 2002 , the ZEV - NET program has been serving the transport needs of the Irvine community with all - electric vehicles for the critical last mile of commutes from the Irvine train station to the UC campus and local business offices . In addition , Toyota announced that is backing away from fully electric vehicles . The company 's vice chairman , Takeshi Uchiyamada , said : `` The current capabilities of electric vehicles do not meet society 's needs , whether it may be the distance the cars can run , or the costs , or how it takes a long time to charge . '' Toyota 's emphasis would be re-focused on the hybrid concept , and 21 new hybrid gas - electric models scheduled to be on the market by 2015 . Toyota 's project called Ha : mo ( Harmonious Mobility Network ) , is using the Toyota i - Road , an all - electric vehicle which combines the potential of both cars and motorbikes . The project is being run in Grenoble , France ; Toyota City , Japan ; and also Tokyo , Japan . Hydrogen fuel - cell ( edit ) In 2002 , Toyota began a development and demonstration program to test the Toyota FCHV , a hybrid hydrogen fuel cell vehicle based on the Toyota Highlander production SUV . Toyota also built a FCHV bus based on the Hino Blue Ribbon City low - floor bus . Toyota has built several prototypes / concepts of the FCHV since 1997 , including the Toyota FCHV - 1 , FCHV - 2 , FCHV - 3 , FCHV - 4 , and Toyota FCHV - adv . The Toyota FCV - R fuel cell concept car was unveiled at the 2011 Tokyo Motor Show . The FCV - R sedan seats four and has a fuel cell stack including a 70 MPa high - pressure hydrogen tank , which can deliver a range of 435 mi ( 700 km ) under the Japanese JC08 test cycle . Toyota said the car was planned for launch in about 2015 . The Toyota Mirai fuel - cell vehicle In August 2012 , Toyota announced its plans to start retail sales of a hydrogen fuel - cell sedan in California in 2015 .

Cars ( edit ) Further information : List of Toyota vehicles As of 2009 , Toyota officially lists approximately 70 different models sold under its namesake brand , including sedans , coupes , vans , trucks , hybrids , and crossovers . Many of these models are produced as passenger sedans , which range from the subcompact Toyota Yaris and compact Corolla , to mid-size Camry and full - size Avalon . Vans include the Previa / Estima , Sienna , and others . Several small cars , such as the xB and tC , are sold under the Scion brand . SUVs and crossovers ( edit ) Toyota Fortuner Toyota Highlander Toyota crossovers range from the compact Matrix and RAV4 , to midsize Venza and Kluger / Highlander . Toyota SUVs range from the midsize 4Runner to full - size Land Cruiser . Other SUVs include the Prado , FJ Cruiser , Fortuner , and Sequoia . Pickup trucks ( edit ) Toyota Hilux Toyota Tacoma Toyota first entered the pickup truck market in 1947 with the SB that was only sold in Japan and limited Asian markets . It was followed in 1954 by the RK ( renamed in 1959 as the Stout ) and in 1968 by the compact Hilux . With continued refinement , the Hilux ( simply known as the Pickup in some markets ) became famous for being extremely durable and reliable , and many of these trucks from as early as the late 1970s are still on the road today , some with over 300,000 miles . Extended - and crew - cab versions of these small haulers were eventually added , and Toyota continues to produce them today under various names depending on the market . Riding on the success of the compact pickups in the US , Toyota decided to attempt to enter the traditionally domestic - dominated full - size pickup market , introducing the T100 for the 1993 US model year , with production ending in 1998 . While having a bed at the traditional full - size length of 8 feet , the suspension and engine characteristics were still similar to that of a compact pickup . It proved to be as economical and reliable as any typical Toyota pickup , but sales never became what Toyota brass had hoped for . It was criticized as being too small to appeal to the traditional American full - size pickup buyer . Another popular full - size truck essential , a V8 engine , was never available . Additionally , the truck was at first only available as a regular cab , though Toyota addressed this shortcoming and added the Xtracab version in mid-1995 . In 1999 for the 2000 model year , Toyota replaced the T100 with the larger Tundra . The Tundra addressed criticisms that the T100 did not have the look and feel of a legitimate American - style full - size pickup . It also added the V8 engine that the T100 was criticized for not having . However , the Tundra still came up short in towing capacity as well as still feeling slightly carlike . These concerns were addressed with an even larger 2007 redesign . A stronger V6 and a second V8 engine among other things were added to the option list . As of early 2010 , the Tundra has captured 16 % of the full - size half - ton market in the US . The all - new Tundra was assembled in San Antonio , Texas , US . Toyota assembled around 150,000 Standard and Double Cabs , and only 70,000 Crew Max 's in 2007 . The smaller Tacoma ( which traces its roots back to the original Hilux ) was also produced at the company 's San Antonio facility . Outside the United States , Toyota produced the Hilux in Standard and Double Cab , gasoline and diesel engine , and 2WD and 4WD versions . The BBC 's Top Gear TV show featured two episodes of a Hilux that was deemed `` virtually indestructible '' . Luxury - type vehicles ( edit ) Further information : List of Lexus vehicles Toyota Crown Royal As of 2009 , the company sold nine luxury - branded models under its Lexus division , ranging from the LS sedan to RX crossover and LX SUV .

Environmental Record ( edit ) Toyota has been a leader in environmentally friendly vehicle technologies , most notably the RAV4 EV ( produced from 1997 to 2003 , then 2012 to present ) and the Toyota Prius ( 1997 to present ) . Toyota implemented its fifth Environmental Action Plan in 2005 . The plan contains four major themes involving the environment and the corporation 's development , design , production , and sales . The five - year plan is directed at the , `` arrival of a revitalized recycling and reduction based society '' . Toyota had previously released its Eco-Vehicle Assessment System ( Eco-VAS ) which is a systematic life cycle assessment of the effect a vehicle will have on the environment including production , usage , and disposal . The assessment includes , `` ... fuel efficiency , emissions and noise during vehicle use , the disposal recovery rate , the reduction of substances of environmental concern , and CO emissions throughout the life cycle of the vehicle from production to disposal . '' 2008 marks the ninth year for Toyota 's Environmental Activities Grant Program which has been implemented every year since 2001 . Themes of the 2008 program consist of `` Global Warming Countermeasures '' and `` Biodiversity Conservation . '' Since October 2006 , Toyota 's new Japanese - market vehicle models with automatic transmissions are equipped with an Eco Drive Indicator . The system takes into consideration rate of acceleration , engine and transmission efficiency , and speed . When the vehicle is operated in a fuel - efficient manner , the Eco Drive Indicator on the instrument panel lights up . Individual results vary depending on traffic issues , starting and stopping the vehicle , and total distance traveled , but the Eco Drive Indicator may improve fuel efficiency by as much as 4 % . Along with Toyota 's eco-friendly objectives on production and use , the company plans to donate US $1 million and five vehicles to the Everglades National Park . The money will be used to fund environmental programs at the park . This donation is part of a program which provides US $5 million and 23 vehicles for five national parks and the National Parks Foundation . However , new figures from the United States National Research Council show that the continuing hidden health costs of the auto industry to the US economy in 2005 amounted to US $56 million . The United States EPA has awarded Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing North America , Inc . ( TEMA ) with an ENERGY STAR Sustained Excellence Award in 2007 , 2008 , and 2009 . In 2016 , Toyota was recognized as the top company on the Carbon Clean 200 list of the world 's largest clean energy companies .

Dancing on Ice is frequently compared to the BBC 's Strictly Come Dancing . In 2004 , the BBC aired a Strictly special entitled Strictly Ice Dancing at Christmas , which was won by England goalkeeper David Seaman ( who was a contestant in series 1 of Dancing on Ice ) . ITV 's show was given a January premiere amidst network doubts about its viability but became a surprise hit in Britain , where it became the third highest rated television show of 2006 . It attained an impressive 13 million viewers for the final in March . Britain 's best - known ice - skating duo and former Olympic champions Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean help to train the aspiring dancers , and also appear throughout the show with comments and advice . Head Coach Karen Barber also trains the skaters for the live show . From the beginning , Torvill and Dean opened every episode with a performance , with the exception of the second , third and fourth shows of the fourth series , when Torvill performed alone due to Dean 's recovery from a shoulder operation . In 2012 they performed less regularly . Schofield previously presented with Holly Willoughby , with commentary originally from Tony Gubba ( later Simon Reed ) and voiceovers done by John Sachs . The members of The Ice Panel were originally Karen Barber , Jason Gardiner , Nicky Slater and Robin Cousins , and the fifth judge varied from series to series : Karen Kresge in the first series , Natalia Bestemianova in the second , Ruthie Henshall in the third and fourth and Emma Bunton in the fifth . In series 6 , there were only three judges : Gardiner , Cousins and Bunton . During the shows first two series , it ran two supplementary programmes -- Dancing on Ice Defrosted , presented by Stephen Mulhern , and Dancing on Ice Exclusive ( or Dancing on Ice Extra during series 1 ) presented by Andi Peters alongside Andrea McLean in series 1 and Ben Shephard in series 2 . In mid-2007 , it was announced that both shows would not return to accompany the third series as the audience attracted was out of ITV2 's target range . As part of ITV 's new revamped schedule at the start of 2008 , from the third series , the show aired on a Sunday night and featured updated music and new titles as well as redesigned graphics . The series 3 finale was a massive draw , pulling an average 11.7 million viewers ( up from 9.6 million the previous year ) peaking at 12.6 million viewers over the two - hour slot , up over a million from series 2 . The seventh series began on 8 January 2012 , with Torvill and Dean as coaches for which they will be paid £ 250,000 each series . Christine Bleakley was announced as the new co-presenter of the show replacing Holly Willoughby , whilst Katarina Witt and Louie Spence replaced Emma Bunton and Jason Gardiner on the judging panel . On 20 November 2012 , it was announced that Gardiner was to return to the panel for the 2013 series , replacing Spence . The full judging panel for the 2013 series was revealed on 28 December 2012 , with former The Pussycat Dolls singer Ashley Roberts joining and Karen Barber returning to the panel after acting as head coach on the show the previous two years ; they joined Gardiner and head judge Robin Cousins on the panel . Cancellation and revival On 21 May 2013 , Torvill and Dean announced that they would leave the series after its ninth series in 2014 , leading to speculation that the whole show would be axed . On 24 June 2013 it was rumoured that Dancing on Ice may continue after they have left with new coaches , however , on 22 October 2013 it was confirmed that the show would end after its ninth series in 2014 . On 4 September 2017 , ITV confirmed that the show would return in 2018 . Torvill and Dean will return to the show as head judges along with Schofield and Willoughby as presenters . On 19 October 2017 , Ashley Banjo was confirmed as a judge . Later that month Gardiner confirmed that he would return to the judging panel . Ashley 's brother Jordan Banjo acts as the show 's backstage digital host . ITV Racing 's betting presenter Matt Chapman was announced as the new commentator on 16 December 2017 . However , following the first live show on 7 January , Chapman claimed that he had `` quit '' the show but it was later confirmed to be a decision by the ITV producers , responding to pressure from the TV audience . Sport commentator Sam Matterface was later confirmed as Chapman 's replacement . It was announced on 25 January 2018 that Dancing on Ice would return for an eleventh series in 2019 . The presenters , judges and participating celebrities are yet to be confirmed by ITV . Format Each week the celebrities and their partners perform a live ice dance routine . The four / five ( as of Series 8 ) judges ( commonly known as the Ice Panel ) judge each performance and give a mark between 0.0 and 10.0 ( 0.0 to 6.0 between series 1 and 5 ) , depending on the performance . These total scores then create a leaderboard which combines with the public vote in order to determine the two lowest placed couples . As this is the case , the pair with the lowest score from the judges can avoid being in the bottom two if the public vote for them . Once the scores and votes are combined to form the final leaderboard for that week 's show , the two / three couples at the bottom compete in a final showdown known as the `` Skate Off '' , where they perform their routine again . Once the couples have performed their routines for the judging panel , the judges decide on who deserves to stay and cast their votes , based on their second performance . The couple with the most votes from the judges receives a place in the following week 's show , while the couple with the fewest votes leaves the competition . One couple leaves each week , but in series 7 , two couples left in one week , due to numbering issues . A live reunion special was staged one week after the end of each season , with all celebrities talking about their experiences during the season , and answering questions from a live studio audience . Torvil and Dean themselves then made a special in - studio appearance towards the end , thanking the contestants , hosts and judges , and of course , the home viewers for their votes .

The first was Dancing on Ice Defrosted . It was presented by Stephen Mulhern and aired on ITV2 immediately after the main ITV show and again after the results show . The show featured opinions from celebrity guests and past contestants as well as from Torvill and Dean , the judges , presenters and competitors . Judge Nicky Slater also offered in - depth analysis of various performances using the latest video technology that the judges use to judge performances . The second spin - off show was originally called Dancing on Ice Extra and was presented by Andi Peters and Andrea McLean , both competitors in the first series . Midway through the first series Paul O'Grady left ITV to join Channel 4 meaning that ITV had no show to put on air at 5 pm . The format of Dancing on Ice Defrosted was modified so that it could be broadcast every weekday . Due to Andrea 's maternity leave during the second series she did not return to present the show and therefore Ben Shephard joined the show as the anchor presenter , and , unlike during the previous , series Andi Peters was now a roving reporter around the studio . For its second run the show was renamed Dancing on Ice Exclusive . Neither of these first two spin - off shows returned in 2008 nor 2009 . In 2010 it was announced that a new spin - off show would accompany Dancing on Ice , named Dancing on Ice Friday , presented by Ben Shephard and Coleen Nolan . Champion of champions ( 2007 ) This took place on Saturday 24 March 2007 and featured finalists from both Series 1 and Series 2 . All six celebrities did one routine each , scored by the judges , and then voted on by the public .

For the magazine , see Rolling Stone . The Rolling Stones The Rolling Stones performing at Summerfest in Milwaukee in 2015 . Left to right : Charlie Watts , Ronnie Wood , Mick Jagger and Keith Richards Background information Origin London , England Genres Rock blues Years active 1962 -- present Labels Decca London Rolling Stones Virgin ABKCO Interscope Polydor Associated acts The New Barbarians Billy Preston Faces The Pretty Things John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers Bill Wyman 's Rhythm Kings Website rollingstones.com Members Mick Jagger Keith Richards Charlie Watts Ronnie Wood Past members Brian Jones Ian Stewart Dick Taylor Bill Wyman Mick Taylor The Rolling Stones are an English rock band formed in London , England in 1962 . The first stable line - up consisted of Brian Jones ( guitar , harmonica ) , Mick Jagger ( lead vocals ) , Keith Richards ( guitar , backing vocals ) , Bill Wyman ( bass ) , Charlie Watts ( drums ) , and Ian Stewart ( piano ) . Stewart was removed from the official line - up in 1963 but continued as a touring member until his death in 1985 . Jones left the band less than a month before his death in 1969 , having already been replaced by Mick Taylor , who remained until 1974 . After Taylor left the band , Ronnie Wood took his place in 1975 and has been on guitar in tandem with Richards ever since . Following Wyman 's departure in 1993 , Darryl Jones joined as their touring bassist . Touring keyboardists for the band have been Nicky Hopkins ( 1967 -- 1982 ) , Ian McLagan ( 1978 -- 1981 ) , Billy Preston ( through the mid-1970s ) and Chuck Leavell ( 1982 -- present ) . The band was first led by Brian Jones , but after developing into the band 's songwriters , Jagger and Richards assumed leadership when Jones was dealing with personal troubles and legal issues . The Rolling Stones were at the forefront of the British Invasion of bands that became popular in the United States in 1964 , and identified with the youthful and rebellious counterculture of the 1960s . Rooted in blues and early rock and roll , the group began a short period of musical experimentation in the mid-1960s that peaked with the psychedelic album Their Satanic Majesties Request ( 1967 ) . Subsequently , the group returned to its `` bluesy '' roots with Beggars Banquet ( 1968 ) which along with its follow - ups Let It Bleed ( 1969 ) , Sticky Fingers ( 1971 ) and Exile on Main St. ( 1972 ) is generally considered to be the band 's best work and is seen as their `` Golden Age '' . During this period , they were first introduced on stage as `` The Greatest Rock and Roll Band in the World '' . Musicologist Robert Palmer attributed the endurance of the Rolling Stones to their being `` rooted in traditional verities , in rhythm - and - blues and soul music '' , while `` more ephemeral pop fashions have come and gone '' . The band continued to release commercially successful albums , including Some Girls ( 1978 ) and Tattoo You ( 1981 ) , which were their most popular albums worldwide . From 1983 to 1987 , tensions between Jagger and Richards almost caused the band to split . However , they managed to patch up their friendship after they separated temporarily to work on solo projects , and experienced a comeback with Steel Wheels ( 1989 ) , which was followed by a large stadium and arena tour . Since the 1990s , new recorded material from the group has been less well - received and less frequent . Despite this , the Rolling Stones have continued to be a huge attraction on the live circuit , with stadium tours in the 1990s and 2000s . By 2007 , the band had four of the top five highest - grossing concert tours of all time : Voodoo Lounge Tour ( 1994 -- 1995 ) , Bridges to Babylon Tour ( 1997 -- 1998 ) , Licks Tour ( 2002 -- 2003 ) and A Bigger Bang Tour ( 2005 -- 2007 ) . The Rolling Stones were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1989 and the UK Music Hall of Fame in 2004 . Rolling Stone magazine ranked them fourth on the `` 100 Greatest Artists of All Time '' list and their estimated album sales are above 250 million . They have released 30 studio albums , 18 live albums and numerous compilations . Let It Bleed ( 1969 ) was their first of five consecutive No. 1 studio and live albums in the UK . Sticky Fingers ( 1971 ) was the first of eight consecutive No. 1 studio albums in the US . In 2008 , the band ranked 10th on the Billboard Hot 100 All - Time Top Artists chart . In 2012 , the band celebrated its 50th anniversary .

In the mid-1950s , Jagger formed a garage band with his friend Dick Taylor ; the group mainly played material by Muddy Waters , Chuck Berry , Little Richard , Howlin ' Wolf and Bo Diddley . Jagger met Richards again on 17 October 1961 on platform two of Dartford railway station and the Chuck Berry and Muddy Waters records that Jagger was carrying revealed a common interest . A musical partnership began shortly afterwards . Richards joined Jagger and Taylor at frequent meetings at Jagger 's house . The meetings switched to Taylor 's house in late 1961 , where the three were joined by Alan Etherington and Bob Beckwith ; the quintet called themselves the Blues Boys . In March 1962 , the Blues Boys read about the Ealing Jazz Club in Jazz News newspaper , which mentioned Alexis Korner 's rhythm and blues band , Blues Incorporated . The group sent a tape of their best recordings to Korner , who was favourably impressed . On 7 April , Korner visited Ealing Jazz Club , where they met the members of Blues Incorporated , who included the slide guitarist Brian Jones , the keyboardist Ian Stewart and the drummer Charlie Watts . After a meeting with Korner , Jagger and Richards started jamming with the group . Jones , no longer in a band , advertised for bandmates in Jazz Weekly , while Stewart found them a practice space ; together they decided to start a band playing Chicago blues . Soon after , Jagger , Taylor and Richards left Blues Incorporated to join Jones and Stewart . At the first rehearsal were also the guitarist Geoff Bradford and the vocalist Brian Knight , both of whom decided not to join the band , citing objections to playing the Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley songs preferred by Jagger and Richards . In June 1962 the line - up of Jagger , Richards , Jones , Stewart and Taylor was completed with the addition of the drummer Tony Chapman . According to Richards , Jones named the band during a phone call to Jazz News . When asked by a journalist for the band 's name , Jones saw a Muddy Waters LP lying on the floor ; one of the tracks was `` Rollin ' Stone '' . 1962 -- 1964 : building a following ( edit ) The back room of what was the Crawdaddy Club in Richmond , London where the Rolling Stones had their first residency in 1963 Jones , Jagger , Richards , Stewart and Taylor played a gig billed as `` the Rollin ' Stones '' on 12 July 1962 , at the Marquee Club in London . Shortly afterwards the band went on their first tour of the UK , which they called a `` training ground '' tour , because it was a new experience for all of them . Their material included the Chicago blues as well as Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley songs . At that time , the line - up included neither bassist Bill Wyman , who joined in December 1962 , nor drummer Charlie Watts , who joined in January 1963 , thus completing the band 's original rhythm section . By 1963 they were finding their musical stride as well as popularity , and in 1964 two unscientific opinion polls rated them as Britain 's most popular group , even outranking the Beatles . The name of the band was changed shortly after their first gig to `` The Rolling Stones '' . The group 's then acting manager Giorgio Gomelsky secured a Sunday afternoon residency at the Crawdaddy Club in Richmond in February 1963 , which , Gomelsky claimed , triggered an `` international renaissance for the blues '' . In May 1963 , The Rolling Stones signed Andrew Loog Oldham as their manager ; he was a former publicist who had been directed to the band by his previous clients , the Beatles . Because Oldham was only nineteen and had not reached the age of majority -- he was also younger than anyone in the band -- he could not get an agent 's licence nor sign any contracts without his mother also signing . By necessity he joined with booking agent Eric Easton in order to secure record financing and assistance booking venues . Gomelsky , who had no written agreement with the band , was not consulted . Initially , Oldham tried to apply the strategy used by Brian Epstein , the Beatles ' manager : making the band members wear suits . Later , he changed his mind and imagined a band which contrasted with the Beatles , featuring unmatched clothing , long hair , an unclean appearance . He later said he wanted to make the Stones `` a raunchy , gamy , unpredictable bunch of undesirables '' and to `` establish that the Stones were threatening , uncouth and animalistic '' . Stewart left the official line - up , but remained road manager and touring keyboardist . On Stewart 's decision , Oldham later said `` Well , he just does n't look the part , and six is too many for ( fans ) to remember the faces in the picture . '' Later , Oldham reduced the ages of the band members in publicity to make them appear as teenagers . Decca Records , which had declined to enter into a deal with the Beatles , gave the Rolling Stones a recording contract with favourable terms . The band got three times a new act 's typical royalty rate , full artistic control of recordings and ownership of the recording master tapes . The deal also let the band use non-Decca recording studios . Regent Sound Studios , a mono facility equipped with egg boxes on the ceiling for sound treatment , became their preferred location . Oldham , who had no recording experience but made himself the band 's producer , said Regent had a sound that `` leaked , instrument - to - instrument , the right way '' creating a `` wall of noise '' that worked well for the band . Because of Regent 's low booking rates , the band could record for extended periods rather than the usual three - hour blocks then common at other studios . All tracks on the first Rolling Stones album were recorded there . Oldham contrasted the Rolling Stones ' independence with the Beatles ' obligation to record in EMI 's studios , saying it made them appear as `` mere mortals ... sweating in the studio for the man '' . He promoted the Rolling Stones as the nasty counterpoints to the Beatles by having the band pose unsmiling on the cover of their first album . He also encouraged the press to use provocative headlines such as `` Would you let your daughter marry a Rolling Stone ? '' , although Wyman says `` Our reputation and image as the Bad Boys came later , completely there , accidentally ... ( Oldham ) never did engineer it . He simply exploited it exhaustively '' . In a 1972 interview , Wyman stated `` We were the first pop group to break away from the whole Cliff Richard thing where the bands did little dance steps , wore identical uniforms and had snappy patter . '' A cover version of Chuck Berry 's `` Come On '' was the Rolling Stones ' first single , released on 7 June 1963 . The band refused to play it at live gigs , and Decca bought only one ad to promote the record . With Oldham 's direction , fan - club members bought copies at record shops polled by the charts , helping `` Come On '' rise to No. 21 on the UK Singles Chart . Having a charting single gave the band entree to play outside London , starting with a booking at the Outlook Club in Middlesbrough on 13 July , sharing the billing with the Hollies . Later in 1963 Oldham and Easton arranged the band 's first big UK concert tour as a supporting act for American stars including Bo Diddley , Little Richard and the Everly Brothers . The tour gave the band the opportunity to hone their stagecraft . During the tour the band recorded their second single , a Lennon -- McCartney - penned number entitled `` I Wanna Be Your Man '' ; it reached No. 12 in the UK charts . `` I Wanna Be Your Man '' was written and given to the Stones when John Lennon and Paul McCartney visited them in the studio as the two Beatles liked to give the copyrights to songs away to their friends . A Beatles version of the song was also recorded and released on the 1963 album With the Beatles . The third single by the Stones , Buddy Holly 's `` Not Fade Away '' , itself based on Bo Diddley 's style , was released in February 1964 and reached No. 3 . Oldham saw little future for an act that lost significant songwriting royalties by playing songs of what he described as `` middle - aged blacks '' , limiting the appeal to teenage audiences . Jagger and Richards decided to write songs together , the first batch of which Oldham described as `` soppy and imitative '' . Because the band 's songwriting developed slowly , songs on their first album The Rolling Stones ( 1964 ; issued in the US as England 's Newest Hit Makers ) , were primarily covers , with only one Jagger / Richards original -- `` Tell Me ( You 're Coming Back ) '' -- and two numbers credited to Nanker Phelge , the pen name for songs written by the entire group . The Rolling Stones ' first US tour in June 1964 was , according to Wyman , `` a disaster ... When we arrived , we did n't have a hit record ( there ) or anything going for us . '' When the band appeared on the variety show The Hollywood Palace , that week 's guest host Dean Martin mocked both their hair and their performance . During the tour they recorded for two days at Chess Studios in Chicago , meeting many of their most important influences , including Muddy Waters . These sessions included what would become the Rolling Stones ' first No. 1 hit in the UK , their cover version of Bobby and Shirley Womack 's `` It 's All Over Now '' . The Stones followed the Famous Flames -- featuring James Brown -- in the filmed theatrical release of the 1964 film T.A.M.I. Show , which showcased American acts with British Invasion artists . According to Jagger , `` We were n't actually following James Brown because there was considerable time between the filming of each section . Nevertheless , he was still very annoyed about it ... '' On 25 October the band also appeared on The Ed Sullivan Show . Because of the initial pandemonium the Rolling Stones caused , Sullivan banned the band from his show , though he booked them for subsequent appearances in the following years . Their second LP , 12 X 5 , which was only available in the US , was released during the tour . During the early Stones releases , Richards was typically credited as ' Richard ' . The Rolling Stones ' fifth UK single , a cover of Willie Dixon 's `` Little Red Rooster '' -- with `` Off the Hook '' , credited to Nanker Phelge , as the B - side -- was released in November 1964 and became their second No. 1 hit in the UK . The band 's US distributors , London Records , declined to release `` Little Red Rooster '' as a single . In December 1964 , the distributor released the band 's first single with Jagger / Richards originals on both sides : `` Heart of Stone '' , with `` What a Shame '' as the B - side ; the single went to No. 19 in the US . 1965 -- 1967 : height of Fame ( edit ) The Rolling Stones performing at Georgia Southern College in Statesboro , Georgia , May 1965 . The band 's second UK LP , The Rolling Stones No. 2 , was released in January 1965 and reached No. 1 in the charts . The US version was released in February as The Rolling Stones , Now ! and reached No. 5 . The album was recorded at Chess Studios in Chicago and RCA Studios in Los Angeles . In January and February that year the band played 34 shows for around 100,000 people in Australia and New Zealand . The single `` The Last Time '' , released in February , was the first Jagger / Richards composition to reach No. 1 in the UK charts ; it reached No. 9 in the US . It was later identified by Richards as `` the bridge into thinking about writing for the Stones . It gave us a level of confidence ; a pathway of how to do it . '' Their first international No. 1 hit was `` ( I Ca n't Get No ) Satisfaction '' , recorded in May 1965 during the band 's third North American tour . Richards recorded the guitar riff that drives the song with a fuzzbox , planning to be a scratch track to guide a horn section . Nevertheless , the final cut was without the planned horn overdubs . Issued in the summer of 1965 , it was their fourth UK No. 1 and first in the US where it spent four weeks at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 , establishing worldwide commercial success for the band . The US version of the LP Out of Our Heads , released in July 1965 , also went to No 1 ; it included seven original songs , three Jagger / Richards numbers and four credited to Nanker Phelge . Their second international No. 1 single , `` Get Off of My Cloud '' was released in the autumn of 1965 , followed by another US - only LP , December 's Children . A trade ad for the 1965 Rolling Stones ' North American tour The album Aftermath , released in the late spring of 1966 , was the first LP to be composed entirely of Jagger / Richards songs ; it reached No. 1 in the UK and No. 2 in the US . On this album Jones ' contributions expanded beyond guitar and harmonica . To the Middle Eastern - influenced `` Paint It , Black '' he added sitar , to the ballad `` Lady Jane '' he added dulcimer and to `` Under My Thumb '' he added marimbas . Aftermath also contained `` Goin ' Home '' , a nearly 12 - minute - long song that included elements of jamming and improvisation . The Stones ' success on the British and American singles charts peaked during the 1960s . `` 19th Nervous Breakdown '' was released in February 1966 , and reached No. 2 in the UK and US charts ; `` Paint It , Black '' reached No. 1 in the UK and US in May 1966 . `` Mother 's Little Helper '' , released in June 1966 , reached No. 8 in the US ; it was one of the first pop songs to address the issue of prescription drug abuse . `` Have You Seen Your Mother , Baby , Standing in the Shadow ? '' was released in September 1966 and reached No. 5 in the UK and No. 9 in the US . It had a number of firsts for the group : it was the first Stones recording to feature brass horns , the back - cover photo on the original US picture sleeve depicted the group satirically dressed in drag and the song was accompanied by one of the first official music videos , directed by Peter Whitehead . January 1967 saw the release of Between the Buttons ( UK No. 3 ; US 2 ) ; the album was Andrew Oldham 's last venture as the Rolling Stones ' producer ; Oldham 's role as the band 's manager was taken over by Allen Klein in 1965 to `` get ( them ) out of the original English scene '' and due to Oldham 's fear , after the 12 February drug bust in Sussex , of being arrested . The US version included the double A-side single `` Let 's Spend the Night Together '' and `` Ruby Tuesday '' , which went to No. 1 in the US and No. 3 in the UK . When the band went to New York to perform the numbers on The Ed Sullivan Show , they were ordered to change the lyrics of the refrain to `` let 's spend some time together '' . In early 1967 , Jagger , Richards and Jones began to be hounded by authorities over their recreational drug use , after News of the World ran a three - part feature entitled `` Pop Stars and Drugs : Facts That Will Shock You '' . The series described alleged LSD parties hosted by the Moody Blues and attended by top stars including the Who 's Pete Townshend and Cream 's Ginger Baker , and alleged admissions of drug use by leading pop musicians . The first article targeted Donovan ( who was raided and charged soon after ) ; the second instalment ( published on 5 February ) targeted the Rolling Stones . A reporter who contributed to the story spent an evening at the exclusive London club Blaise 's , where a member of the Rolling Stones allegedly took several Benzedrine tablets , displayed a piece of hashish and invited his companions back to his flat for a `` smoke '' . The article claimed that this was Mick Jagger , but it turned out to be a case of mistaken identity ; the reporter had in fact been eavesdropping on Brian Jones . On the night the article was published Jagger appeared on the Eamonn Andrews chat show and announced that he was filing a writ for libel against the News of the World . Brian Jones , 1965 A week later on 12 February , Sussex police , tipped off by the paper , who in turn were tipped off by Richards ' chauffeur , raided a party at Keith Richards ' home , Redlands . No arrests were made at the time but Jagger , Richards and their friend art dealer Robert Fraser were subsequently charged with drug offences . Richards said in 2003 , `` When we got busted at Redlands , it suddenly made us realize that this was a whole different ball game and that was when the fun stopped . Up until then it had been as though London existed in a beautiful space where you could do anything you wanted . '' On the treatment of the man responsible for the raid he later added : `` As I heard it , he never walked the same again . '' In March 1967 , while awaiting the consequences of the police raid , Jagger , Richards and Jones took a short trip to Morocco , accompanied by Marianne Faithfull , Jones ' girlfriend Anita Pallenberg and other friends . During this trip the stormy relations between Jones and Pallenberg deteriorated to the point that Pallenberg left Morocco with Richards . Richards said later : `` That was the final nail in the coffin with me and Brian . He 'd never forgive me for that and I do n't blame him , but hell , shit happens . '' Richards and Pallenberg would remain a couple for twelve years . Despite these complications , the Rolling Stones toured Europe in March and April 1967 . The tour included the band 's first performances in Poland , Greece , and Italy . On 10 May 1967 , the same day Jagger , Richards and Fraser were arraigned in connection with the Redlands charges , Jones ' house was raided by police and he was arrested and charged with possession of cannabis . Three out of five Rolling Stones now faced drug charges . Jagger and Richards were tried at the end of June . On 29 June , Jagger received a three - month prison sentence for the possession of four amphetamine tablets ; Richards was found guilty of allowing cannabis to be smoked on his property and sentenced to one year in prison . Both Jagger and Richards were imprisoned at that point , but were released on bail the next day pending appeal . The Times ran the famous editorial entitled `` Who breaks a butterfly on a wheel ? '' in which conservative editor William Rees - Mogg surprised his readers by his unusually critical discourse on the sentencing , pointing out that Jagger had been treated far more harshly for a minor first offence than `` any purely anonymous young man '' . While awaiting the appeal hearings , the band recorded a new single , `` We Love You '' , as a thank - you for the loyalty shown by their fans . It began with the sound of prison doors closing , and the accompanying music video included allusions to the trial of Oscar Wilde . On 31 July , the appeals court overturned Richards ' conviction , and Jagger 's sentence was reduced to a conditional discharge . Jones ' trial took place in November 1967 ; in December , after appealing the original prison sentence , Jones received a £ 1,000 fine and was put on three years ' probation , with an order to seek professional help . December 1967 also saw the release of Their Satanic Majesties Request ( UK No. 3 ; US No. 2 ) , which received unfavourable reviews and was widely regarded as a poor imitation of the Beatles ' Sgt . Pepper 's Lonely Hearts Club Band . Satanic Majesties had been recorded in difficult circumstances while Jagger , Richards and Jones were dealing with their court cases . The band parted ways with Oldham during the sessions . The split was amicable , at least publicly , but in 2003 Jagger said : `` The reason Andrew left was because he thought that we were n't concentrating and that we were being childish . It was not a great moment really -- and I would have thought it was n't a great moment for Andrew either . There were a lot of distractions and you always need someone to focus you at that point , that was Andrew 's job . '' Satanic Majesties thus became the first album the Rolling Stones produced on their own . Its psychedelic sound was complemented by the cover art , which featured a 3D photo by Michael Cooper , who had also photographed the cover of Sgt . Pepper . Bill Wyman wrote and sang a track on the album : `` In Another Land '' , which was also released as a single , the first on which Jagger did not sing lead . 1968 -- 1972 : `` back to Basics '' ( edit ) Keith Richards , 1972 The band spent the first few months of 1968 working on material for their next album . Those sessions resulted in the song `` Jumpin ' Jack Flash '' , released as a single in May . The song and the subsequent album , Beggars Banquet ( UK No. 3 ; US 5 ) , an eclectic mix of country and blues - inspired tunes , marked the band 's return to their roots , and the beginning of their collaboration with producer Jimmy Miller . It featured the lead single `` Street Fighting Man '' ( which addressed the political upheavals of May 1968 ) and `` Sympathy for the Devil '' . Beggars Banquet was delayed for nearly six months due to controversy over the design of the album cover , which featured a public toilet with graffiti covering the walls of the stall . Beggars Banquet was well received at the time of release . Richards said , `` There is a change between material on Satanic Majesties and Beggars Banquet . I 'd grown sick to death of the whole Maharishi guru shit and the beads and bells . Who knows where these things come from , but I guess ( the music ) was a reaction to what we 'd done in our time off and also that severe dose of reality . A spell in prison ... will certainly give you room for thought ... I was fucking pissed with being busted . So it was , ' Right we 'll go and strip this thing down . ' There 's a lot of anger in the music from that period . '' The end of 1968 saw the filming of The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus , which originally started as an idea about `` the new shape of the rock - and - roll concert tour '' . It featured John Lennon , Yoko Ono , the Dirty Mac , the Who , Jethro Tull , Marianne Faithfull , and Taj Mahal . The footage was shelved for twenty - eight years but was finally released officially in 1996 , with a DVD version released in October 2004 . By the release of Beggars Banquet , Brian Jones was only sporadically contributing to the band . Jagger said that Jones was `` not psychologically suited to this way of life '' . His drug use had become a hindrance , and he was unable to obtain a US visa . Richards reported that , in a June meeting with Jagger , Richards , and Watts at Jones ' house , Jones admitted that he was unable to `` go on the road again '' , and left the band , saying , `` I 've left , and if I want to I can come back '' . On 3 July 1969 , less than a month later , Jones drowned in the swimming pool under mysterious circumstances at his home , Cotchford Farm , in Hartfield , East Sussex . Mick Taylor ( pictured in 1972 ) is , in part , responsible for the Stones ' new sound in the early 1970s . Replacing Brian Jones in 1969 , Taylor came from John Mayall 's Bluesbreakers and was a member of the Stones until 1974 The Rolling Stones were scheduled to play at a free concert for Blackhill Enterprises in London 's Hyde Park , two days after Jones ' death ; they decided to proceed with the show as a tribute to him . The concert , their first with new guitarist Mick Taylor , was performed in front of an estimated 250,000 fans . The performance was filmed by a Granada Television production team , and was shown on British television as The Stones in the Park . The Blackhill Enterprises stage manager Sam Cutler introduced the Rolling Stones on to the stage by announcing ; Let 's welcome the Greatest Rock and Roll Band in the World . Cutler repeated the description throughout their 1969 US tour , a label which has stuck to this day ( Cutler left Blackhill Enterprises to become the Stones ' road manager following the Hyde Park concert ) . Jagger read an excerpt from Shelley 's poem Adonaïs , an elegy written on the death of his friend John Keats , and they released thousands of butterflies in memory of Jones before opening their set with `` I 'm Yours and I 'm Hers '' , a Johnny Winter number . Also performed , but previously unheard by the audience , were `` Midnight Rambler '' and `` Love in Vain '' from their forthcoming album Let It Bleed ( released December 1969 ) and `` Give Me A Drink '' which eventually appeared on Exile on Main St. ( released May 1972 ) . The show also included the concert debut of `` Honky Tonk Women '' , which the band had just released the previous day . `` Gimme Shelter '' Sample of `` Gimme Shelter '' by the Rolling Stones , from Let It Bleed ( 1969 ) `` Brown Sugar '' Sample of `` Brown Sugar '' by the Rolling Stones , from Sticky Fingers ( 1971 ) Problems playing these files ? See media help . Their last album of the sixties , Let It Bleed ( UK No. 1 ; US 3 ) featured `` Gimme Shelter '' with guest lead female vocals from Merry Clayton ( sister of Sam Clayton , of the American rock band Little Feat ) . Other tracks include `` You Ca n't Always Get What You Want '' ( with accompaniment by the London Bach Choir , who initially asked for their name to be removed from the album 's credits after being apparently ' horrified ' by the content of some of its other material , but later withdrew this request ) , `` Midnight Rambler '' as well as a cover of Robert Johnson 's `` Love in Vain '' . Jones and Taylor are both featured on the album . Just after the US tour the band performed at the Altamont Free Concert at the Altamont Speedway , about 50 miles east of San Francisco . The biker gang Hells Angels provided security , and a fan , Meredith Hunter , was stabbed and beaten to death by the Angels after they realised that he was armed . Part of the tour and the Altamont concert were documented in Albert and David Maysles ' film Gimme Shelter . As a response to the growing popularity of bootleg recordings ( in particular Live'r Than You 'll Ever Be , recorded during the 1969 tour ) , the album Get Yer Ya - Yas Out ! ( UK 1 ; US 6 ) was released in 1970 ; it was declared by critic Lester Bangs to be the best ever live album . At the end of the decade the band appeared on the BBC 's review of the sixties music scene Pop Go the Sixties , performing `` Gimme Shelter '' , which was broadcast live on 31 December 1969 . That following year , the band wanted out of contracts with both Klein and Decca , but still owed them a Jagger / Richards credited single . To get back at the label , and fulfil their final contractual obligation , the band came up with the track `` Schoolboy Blues '' -- deliberately making it as crude as they could in hopes of forcing Decca to keep it `` in the vaults . '' Amid contractual disputes with Klein , they formed their own record company , Rolling Stones Records . Sticky Fingers ( UK No. 1 ; US No. 1 ) , released in March 1971 , the band 's first album on their own label , featured an elaborate cover design by Andy Warhol . The cover of the album was an Andy Warhol photograph of a man in tight jeans ( from the waist down ) featuring a functioning zipper . When unzipped , it revealed the subject 's underwear , imprinted with a saying -- `` This Is Not Etc . '' In some markets , an alternate cover was released due to the zippered cover 's offensive nature at the time . The Stones ' Decca catalogue is currently owned by Klein 's ABKCO label . In 1968 , the Stones , following a suggestion by pianist Ian Stewart , put a control room in a van and created a mobile recording studio so that they would not be limited to the standard 9 -- 5 hours most recording studios operated by . The band lent the mobile studio out to other artists , including Led Zeppelin , which used it to record Led Zeppelin III ( 1970 ) and Led Zeppelin IV ( 1971 ) . The Rolling Stones ' logo , designed by John Pasche and modified by Craig Braun , was introduced in 1971 Sticky Fingers was the first to feature the logo of Rolling Stones Records , which effectively became the band 's logo . It consisted of a pair of lips with a lapping tongue . Designer John Pasche created the logo following a suggestion by Jagger to copy the outstuck tongue of the Hindu goddess Kali . Critic Sean Egan has said of the logo , `` Without using the Stones ' name , it instantly conjures them , or at least Jagger , as well as a certain lasciviousness that is the Stones ' own ... It quickly and deservedly became the most famous logo in the history of popular music . '' The tongue and lips design was part of a package that , in 2003 , VH1 named the `` No. 1 Greatest Album Cover '' of all time . The album contains one of their best known hits , `` Brown Sugar '' , and the country - influenced `` Dead Flowers '' . Both were recorded at Alabama 's Muscle Shoals Sound Studio during the 1969 American tour . The album continued the band 's immersion into heavily blues - influenced compositions . The album is noted for its `` loose , ramshackle ambience '' and marked Mick Taylor 's first full release with the band . Following the release of Sticky Fingers , the Rolling Stones left England after receiving financial advice from their financial manager at the time , Prince Rupert Loewenstein , recommending that they go into tax exile before the start of the next financial year . They had learned that despite promises made that taxes were taken care of , they had not been paid for seven years and that they owed the UK government a relative fortune that could have meant the end of the band . They moved to the South of France , where Richards rented the Villa Nellcôte and sublet rooms to band members and entourage . Using the Rolling Stones Mobile Studio , they held recording sessions in the basement ; they completed the resulting tracks , along with material dating as far back as 1969 , at Sunset Studios in Los Angeles . The resulting double album , Exile on Main St. ( UK No. 1 ; US No. 1 ) , was released in May 1972 . Given an A+ grade by critic Robert Christgau and disparaged by Lester Bangs -- who reversed his opinion within months -- Exile is now accepted as one of the Stones ' best albums . The films Cocksucker Blues ( never officially released ) and Ladies and Gentlemen : The Rolling Stones ( released in 1974 ) document the subsequent highly publicised 1972 North American Tour . The band 's double compilation , Hot Rocks 1964 -- 1971 , was released in 1972 ; it reached number 3 in the UK charts and No. 4 in the US . It is certified Diamond in the US having sold over 12 million copies , and has spent over 264 weeks on the Billboard album chart . In 1974 Wyman released his first solo album , Monkey Grip , making him the first Rolling Stone to release solo material . As of 2017 Wyman has published five solo albums , with the most recent , Back to Basics , released in 2015 . 1972 -- 1977 : critical fluctuations and Ronnie Wood ( edit ) Members of the band set up a complex financial structure in 1972 to reduce payment of taxes . Their holding company , Promogroup , has offices in both The Netherlands and the Caribbean . The Netherlands was chosen because it does not directly tax royalty payments . The band has been tax exiles ever since , meaning they no longer can use Britain as their main residence . Due to the arrangements with the holding company , the band has reportedly paid a tax of just 1.6 % on their total earnings of £ 242 million over the past 20 years . In November 1972 the band began recording sessions in Kingston , Jamaica for the album Goats Head Soup ; it was released in 1973 and reached No. 1 in both the UK and US . The album , which contained the worldwide hit `` Angie '' , proved to be the first in a string of commercially successful but tepidly received studio albums . The sessions for Goats Head Soup contained unused material , most notably an early version of the popular ballad `` Waiting on a Friend '' , which was not released until the LP Tattoo You eight years later . Bill Wyman , 1975 The making of Goats Head Soup was interrupted by another legal battle over drugs , dating back to their stay in France ; a warrant for Richards ' arrest had been issued , and the other band members had to return briefly to France for questioning . This , along with Jagger 's 1967 and 1970 convictions on drug charges , complicated the band 's plans for their Pacific tour in early 1973 : they were denied permission to play in Japan and almost banned from Australia . This was followed by a European tour in September and October 1973 which bypassed France , prior to which Richards had been arrested once more on drug charges , this time in England . The 1974 album It 's Only Rock ' n Roll was recorded in the Musicland studios in Munich , Germany ; it reached No. 2 in the UK and No. 1 in the US . Miller was not invited , and Jagger and Richards produced the album under the credit of `` the Glimmer Twins '' . Both the album and the single of the same name were hits . Near the end of 1974 , Taylor began to lose patience . The band 's situation made normal functioning complicated , with band members living in different countries , and legal barriers restricting where they could tour . In addition , drug use was starting to affect Richards ' productivity , and Taylor felt some of his own creative contributions were going unrecognised . At the end of 1974 , with a recording session already booked in Munich to record another album , Taylor quit the Rolling Stones . Taylor said in 1980 , `` I was getting a bit fed up . I wanted to broaden my scope as a guitarist and do something else ... I was n't really composing songs or writing at that time . I was just beginning to write , and that influenced my decision ... There are some people who can just ride along from crest to crest ; they can ride along somebody else 's success . And there are some people for whom that 's not enough . It really was n't enough for me . '' Ronnie Wood ( left ) and Jagger ( right ) in Chicago , 1975 The Rolling Stones needed to find a new guitarist , and the recording sessions for the next album , Black and Blue ( UK 2 ; US 1 ) ( 1976 ) in Munich provided an opportunity for some hopefuls to work while trying out for the band . Guitarists as stylistically disparate as Peter Frampton and Jeff Beck were auditioned as well as Robert A. Johnson and Shuggie Otis . Both Beck and Irish blues rock guitarist Rory Gallagher later claimed that they had played without realising they were being auditioned , and both agreed that they would never have joined . American session players Wayne Perkins and Harvey Mandel also tried out but Richards and Jagger had a preference for the band to remain purely British . When Ronnie Wood auditioned , everyone agreed that he was the right choice . He had already recorded and played live with Richards , and had contributed to the recording and writing of the track `` It 's Only Rock ' n Roll '' . He had earlier declined Jagger 's offer to join the Stones , because of his commitment to the Faces , saying `` that 's what 's really important to me '' . Faces ' lead singer Rod Stewart went so far as to say he would take bets that Wood would not join the Stones . Wood officially joined the Rolling Stones in 1975 for their upcoming Tour of the Americas , while the Faces disbanded . Unlike the other band members , however , Wood was paid an employee 's salary , and that remained the case until the early 1990s , when he finally joined the Rolling Stones ' business partnership . Jagger in 1976 The 1975 Tour of the Americas kicked off in New York City with the band performing on a flatbed trailer being pulled down Broadway . The tour featured stage props including a giant phallus and a rope on which Jagger swung out over the audience . Jagger had booked live recording sessions at the El Mocambo club in Toronto to balance a long - overdue live album , 1977 's Love You Live ( UK 3 ; US 5 ) , the first Stones live album since Get Yer Ya - Ya 's Out ! . Richards ' addiction to heroin delayed his arrival in Toronto ; the other members had already arrived , waiting for him , and sent him a telegram asking him where he was . On 24 February 1977 , when Richards and his family flew in from London , they were temporarily detained by Canada Customs after Richards was found in possession of a burnt spoon and hash residue . Three days later , the Royal Canadian Mounted Police , armed with an arrest warrant for Pallenberg , discovered 22 grams of heroin in Richards ' room . Richards was charged with importing narcotics into Canada , an offence that carried a minimum seven - year sentence . El Mocambo where part of the live album Love You Live was recorded in 1977 Later the Crown prosecutor conceded that Richards had procured the drugs after arrival . Despite the incident , the band played two shows in Toronto , only to raise more controversy when Margaret Trudeau , then - wife of Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau , was seen partying with the band after one show . The band 's two shows were not advertised to the public . Instead , the El Mocambo had been booked for the entire week by April Wine for a recording session . 1050 CHUM , a local radio station , ran a contest for free tickets to see April Wine . Contest winners who selected tickets for Friday or Saturday night were surprised to find the Rolling Stones playing . On 4 March , Richards ' partner Anita Pallenberg pleaded guilty to drug possession and incurred a fine in connection with the original airport incident . The drug case against Richards dragged on for over a year . Ultimately , Richards received a suspended sentence and was ordered to play two free concerts for the CNIB in Oshawa ; both shows featured the Rolling Stones and the New Barbarians , a group that Wood had put together to promote his latest solo album , and which Richards also joined . This episode strengthened Richards ' resolve to stop using heroin . It also ended his relationship with Pallenberg , which had become strained since the death of their third child , Tara . Pallenberg was unable to curb her heroin addiction while Richards struggled to get clean . While Richards was settling his legal and personal problems , Jagger continued his jet - set lifestyle . He was a regular at New York 's Studio 54 disco club , often in the company of model Jerry Hall . His marriage to Bianca Jagger ended in 1977 , although they had long been estranged . Although the Rolling Stones remained popular through the early 1970s , music critics had begun to grow dismissive of the band 's output , and record sales failed to meet expectations . By the mid-1970s , after punk rock became influential , many people had begun to view the Rolling Stones as an outdated band . 1978 -- 1982 : commercial peak ( edit ) The group 's fortunes changed in 1978 , after the band released Some Girls ( UK No. 2 ; US No. 1 ) , which included the hit single `` Miss You '' , the country ballad `` Far Away Eyes '' , `` Beast of Burden '' , and `` Shattered '' . In part as a response to punk , many songs , particularly `` Respectable '' , were fast , basic , guitar - driven rock and roll , and the album 's success re-established the Rolling Stones ' immense popularity among young people . Following the US Tour 1978 , the band guested on the first show of the fourth season of the TV series Saturday Night Live . Following the success of Some Girls , the band released their next album Emotional Rescue ( UK 1 ; US 1 ) in mid-1980 . During the recording sessions of the album , a rift between Jagger and Richards was slowly beginning to form . Richards wanted to tour in summer or autumn of 1980 to promote the new album . Much to his disappointment , Jagger declined . Emotional Rescue hit the top of the charts on both sides of the Atlantic and the title track reached No. 3 in the US . The Rolling Stones performing in December 1981 In early 1981 , the group reconvened and decided to tour the US that year , leaving little time to write and record a new album , as well as rehearse for the tour . That year 's resulting album , Tattoo You ( UK 2 ; US 1 ) , featured a number of outtakes , including lead single `` Start Me Up '' , which reached No. 2 in the US and ranked No. 22 on Billboard 's Hot 100 year - end chart . Two songs ( `` Waiting on a Friend '' ( US No. 13 ) and `` Tops '' ) featured Mick Taylor 's unused rhythm guitar tracks , while jazz saxophonist Sonny Rollins played on `` Slave '' and `` Waiting on a Friend '' . The Rolling Stones scored one more top 20 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1982 , the No. 20 hit `` Hang Fire '' . The Stones ' American Tour 1981 was their biggest , longest and most colourful production to date , with the band playing from 25 September through 19 December . It was the highest - grossing tour of that year . The tour included a concert at Chicago 's Checkerboard Lounge with Muddy Waters , in what would be one of his last performances before his death in 1983 . Some shows were recorded , resulting in the 1982 live album Still Life ( American Concert 1981 ) ( UK 4 ; US 5 ) , and the 1983 Hal Ashby concert film Let 's Spend the Night Together , which was filmed at Sun Devil Stadium in Tempe , Arizona and the Brendan Byrne Arena in the Meadowlands , New Jersey . In mid-1982 , to commemorate their 20th anniversary , the Rolling Stones took their American stage show to Europe . The European Tour 1982 was their first European tour in six years , with a similar format to the American tour . The band were joined by former Allman Brothers Band keyboardist Chuck Leavell , who continues to perform and record with the Rolling Stones . By the end of the year , the band had signed a new four - album recording deal with a new label , CBS Records , for a reported $50 million , then the biggest record deal in history . 1983 -- 1988 : band turmoil and solo efforts ( edit ) Before leaving Atlantic , the Rolling Stones released Undercover ( UK 3 ; US 4 ) in late 1983 . Despite good reviews and the Top Ten peak position of the title track , the record sold below expectations and there was no tour to support it . Subsequently , the Stones ' new marketer / distributor CBS Records took over distributing the Stones ' Atlantic catalogue . Richards and Wood during a Stones concert in Turin , Italy in 1982 By this time , the Jagger / Richards rift had grown significantly . To Richards ' annoyance , Jagger had signed a solo deal with CBS Records , and he spent much of 1984 writing songs for his first album . He also declared his growing lack of interest in the Rolling Stones . By 1985 , Jagger was spending more time on solo recordings , and much of the material on 1986 's Dirty Work was generated by Richards , with more contributions by Wood than on previous Rolling Stones albums . The album was recorded in Paris , and Jagger was often absent from the studio , leaving Richards to keep the recording sessions moving forward . In June 1985 , Jagger teamed up with David Bowie for `` Dancing in the Street '' , which was recorded as part of the Live Aid charity movement . This was one of Jagger 's first solo performances , and the song reached No. 1 in the UK , and No. 7 in the US . In December 1985 , Stewart died of a heart attack . The Rolling Stones played a private tribute concert for him at London 's 100 Club in February 1986 , two days before they were presented with a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award . Dirty Work ( UK No. 4 ; US No. 4 ) was released in March 1986 to mixed reviews despite the presence of the US Top Five hit `` Harlem Shuffle '' . With relations between Richards and Jagger at a low , Jagger refused to tour to promote the album , and instead undertook his own solo tour , which included Rolling Stones songs . As a result of the animosity within the band during this period , they almost broke up . Jagger 's solo records , She 's the Boss ( UK 6 ; US 13 ) ( 1985 ) and Primitive Cool ( UK 26 ; US 41 ) ( 1987 ) , met with moderate success , and in 1988 , with the Rolling Stones mostly inactive , Richards released his first solo album , Talk Is Cheap ( UK 37 ; US 24 ) . It was well received by fans and critics , going gold in the US . Richards has subsequently referred to this late - 80s period , where the two were recording solo albums with no obvious reunion of the Stones in sight , as `` World War III '' . The following year 25x5 : The Continuing Adventures of the Rolling Stones , a documentary spanning the career of the band was released for their 25th anniversary . 1989 -- 1999 : comeback , return to popularity , and record - breaking tours ( edit ) In early 1989 , the Rolling Stones , including Mick Taylor and Ronnie Wood as well as Brian Jones and Ian Stewart ( posthumously ) , were inducted into the American Rock and Roll Hall of Fame . Jagger and Richards set aside animosities and went to work on a new Rolling Stones album , Steel Wheels ( UK 2 ; US 3 ) . Heralded as a return to form , it included the singles `` Mixed Emotions '' ( US No. 5 ) , `` Rock and a Hard Place '' ( US No. 23 ) and `` Almost Hear You Sigh '' . The album also included `` Continental Drift '' , which the Rolling Stones recorded in Tangier , Morocco in 1989 with the Master Musicians of Jajouka led by Bachir Attar , coordinated by Tony King and Cherie Nutting . A BBC documentary film , The Rolling Stones in Morocco , was produced by Nigel Finch . The subsequent Steel Wheels / Urban Jungle Tours , encompassing North America , Japan , and Europe , saw the Rolling Stones touring for the first time in seven years and it was their biggest stage production to date . Opening acts included Living Colour and Guns N ' Roses ; the onstage personnel included a horn section and backup singers Lisa Fischer and Bernard Fowler , both of whom continue to tour regularly with the band . Recordings from the Steel Wheels / Urban Jungle tours produced the 1991 concert album Flashpoint ( UK 6 ; US 16 ) , which also included two studio tracks recorded in 1991 : the single `` Highwire '' and `` Sex Drive '' . The tour produced the IMAX concert film Live at the Max released in 1991 . The tour was the last to feature Wyman , who left the band after years of deliberation , although his retirement was not made official until January 1993 . He then published Stone Alone , an autobiography based on scrapbooks and diaries he had been keeping since the band 's early days . A few years later he formed Bill Wyman 's Rhythm Kings and began recording and touring again . After the successes of the Steel Wheels / Urban Jungle tours , the band took a break . Watts released two jazz albums ; Wood recorded his fifth solo album , the first in 11 years , called Slide On This , Wyman released his fourth solo album , Richards released his second solo album in late 1992 , Main Offender , and did a small tour including big concerts in Spain and Argentina . Jagger got good reviews and sales with his third solo album , Wandering Spirit ( UK 12 ; US 11 ) . The album sold more than two million copies worldwide , going gold in the US . Multiple platinum award for their 1994 album Voodoo Lounge , on display at the Museo del Rock in Madrid After Wyman 's departure , the Rolling Stones ' new distributor / record label , Virgin Records , remastered and repackaged the band 's back catalogue from Sticky Fingers to Steel Wheels , except for the three live albums , and issued another hits compilation in 1993 entitled Jump Back . By 1993 , the Rolling Stones were ready to start recording another studio album . Darryl Jones , former sideman of Miles Davis and Sting , was chosen by Charlie Watts as Wyman 's replacement for 1994 's Voodoo Lounge ( UK 1 ; US 2 ) . The album met strong reviews and sales , going double platinum in the US . Reviewers took note of the album 's `` traditionalist '' sounds , which were credited to the Rolling Stones ' new producer Don Was . Voodoo Lounge would win the Stones the Grammy Award for Best Rock Album at the 1995 Grammy Awards . Richards in Rio de Janeiro , Brazil during the Voodoo Lounge Tour , 1995 1994 also brought the accompanying Voodoo Lounge Tour , which lasted into the following year . The tour grossed $320 million , becoming the world 's highest - grossing tour at the time . Numbers from various concerts and rehearsals ( mostly acoustic ) made up Stripped ( UK 9 ; US 9 ) , which featured a cover of Bob Dylan 's `` Like a Rolling Stone '' , as well as infrequently played songs like `` Shine a Light '' , `` Sweet Virginia '' and `` The Spider and the Fly '' . On 8 September 1994 , the Stones performed their new song `` Love Is Strong '' as well as `` Start Me Up '' at the 1994 MTV Video Music Awards at Radio City Music Hall in New York . The band received the Lifetime Achievement Award at the ceremony . The Rolling Stones were the first major recording artists to broadcast a concert over the Internet ; a 20 - minute video was broadcast on 18 November 1994 using the Mbone at 10 frames per second . The broadcast , engineered by Thinking Pictures and financed by Sun Microsystems , was one of the first demonstrations of streaming video ; while it was not a true webcast , it introduced many to the technology . The Rolling Stones ended the 1990s with the album Bridges to Babylon ( UK 6 ; US 3 ) , released in 1997 to mixed reviews . The video of the single `` Anybody Seen My Baby ? '' featured Angelina Jolie as guest and met steady rotation on both MTV and VH1 . Sales were reasonably equivalent to those of previous records ( about 1.2 million copies sold in the US ) , and the subsequent Bridges to Babylon Tour , which crossed Europe , North America and other destinations , proved the band to be a strong live attraction . Once again , a live album was culled from the tour , No Security ( UK 67 ; US 34 ) , only this time all but two songs ( `` Live With Me '' and `` The Last Time '' ) were previously unreleased on live albums . In 1999 , the Rolling Stones staged the No Security Tour in the US and continued the Bridges to Babylon tour in Europe . 2000 -- 2011 : a Bigger Bang and continued success ( edit ) In late 2001 , Mick Jagger released his fourth solo album , Goddess in the Doorway ( UK 44 ; US 39 ) which met with mixed reviews . A month after the September 11 attacks , Jagger and Richards took part in `` The Concert for New York City '' , performing `` Salt of the Earth '' and `` Miss You '' with a backing band . In 2002 , the band released Forty Licks ( UK 2 ; US 2 ) , a greatest hits double album , to mark their forty years as a band . The collection contained four new songs recorded with the latter - day core band of Jagger , Richards , Watts , Wood , Leavell and Jones . The album has sold more than 7 million copies worldwide . The same year , Q magazine named the Rolling Stones as one of the `` 50 Bands To See Before You Die '' , and the 2002 -- 2003 Licks Tour gave people that chance . The tour included shows in small theatres . The band headlined the Molson Canadian Rocks for Toronto concert in Toronto , Canada , to help the city -- which they have used for rehearsals since the Steel Wheels tour -- recover from the 2003 SARS epidemic . The concert was attended by an estimated 490,000 people . On 9 November 2003 , the band played their first concert in Hong Kong as part of the Harbour Fest celebration , also in support of the SARS - affected economy . The same month , the band exclusively licensed the right to sell their new four - DVD boxed set , Four Flicks , recorded on the band 's most recent world tour , to the US Best Buy chain of stores . In response , some Canadian and US music retail chains ( including HMV Canada and Circuit City ) pulled Rolling Stones CDs and related merchandise from their shelves and replaced them with signs explaining the situation . In 2004 , a double live album of the Licks Tour , Live Licks ( UK 38 ; US 50 ) , was released , going gold in the US . In November 2004 , the Rolling Stones were among the inaugural inductees into the UK Music Hall of Fame . The Rolling Stones at the San Siro stadium in Milan , Italy , July 2006 On 26 July 2005 ( Jagger 's birthday ) , the band announced the name of their new album , A Bigger Bang ( UK 2 ; US 3 ) , their first album in almost eight years . It was released on 6 September to strong reviews , including a glowing write - up in Rolling Stone magazine . The single `` Streets of Love '' reached the top 15 in the UK . The album included the political `` Sweet Neo Con '' , a criticism of American Neoconservatism from Jagger . The song was reportedly almost dropped from the album because of objections from Richards . When asked if he was afraid of political backlash such as the Dixie Chicks had endured , Richards responded that the album came first , and that , `` I do n't want to be sidetracked by some little political ' storm in a teacup ' . '' The subsequent A Bigger Bang Tour began in August 2005 , and visited North America , South America and East Asia . In February 2006 , the group played the half - time show of Super Bowl XL in Detroit , Michigan . By the end of 2005 , the Bigger Bang tour set a record of $162 million in gross receipts , breaking the North American mark also set by the band in 1994 . On 18 February 2006 the band played a free concert to over one million people at the Copacabana beach in Rio de Janeiro ; one of the biggest rock concerts of all time . The Rolling Stones at Twickenham Stadium , London during A Bigger Bang Tour in August 2006 After performances in Japan , China , Australia and New Zealand in March / April 2006 , the Rolling Stones tour took a scheduled break before proceeding to Europe ; during this break Keith Richards was hospitalised in New Zealand for cranial surgery after a fall from a tree on Fiji , where he had been on holiday . The incident led to a six - week delay in launching the European leg of the tour . In June 2006 it was reported that Ronnie Wood was continuing his programme of rehabilitation for alcohol abuse , but this did not affect the rearranged European tour schedule . Two out of the 21 shows scheduled for July -- September 2006 were later cancelled due to Mick Jagger 's throat problems . The Rolling Stones returned to North America for concerts in September 2006 , and returned to Europe on 5 June 2007 . By November 2006 , the Bigger Bang tour had been declared the highest - grossing tour of all time . The Rolling Stones performances at New York City 's Beacon Theatre on 29 October and 1 November 2006 were filmed by Martin Scorsese for a documentary film , Shine a Light , which was released in 2008 . The film also features guest appearances by Buddy Guy , Jack White , and Christina Aguilera . An accompanying soundtrack , also titled Shine a Light ( UK 2 ; US 11 ) , was released in April 2008 . The album 's debut at No. 2 in the UK charts was the highest position for a Rolling Stones concert album since Get Yer Ya - Ya 's Out ! The Rolling Stones in Concert in 1970 . At the Beacon Theater show , Music Executive , Ahmet Ertegun fell and ultimately succumbed to his injury . On 24 March 2007 , the band announced a tour of Europe called the `` Bigger Bang 2007 '' tour . 12 June 2007 saw the release of the band 's second four - disc DVD set : The Biggest Bang , a seven - hour document featuring their shows in Austin , Rio de Janeiro , Saitama , Shanghai and Buenos Aires , along with extras . On 10 June 2007 , the band performed their first gig at a festival in 30 years , at the Isle of Wight Festival , to a crowd of 65,000 , and were joined onstage by Amy Winehouse . On 26 August 2007 , they played their last concert of the Bigger Bang tour at the O2 Arena in London . At the conclusion of the tour , the band had grossed a record setting $558 million and were listed in the latest edition of Guinness World Records . Mick Jagger released a compilation of his solo work called The Very Best of Mick Jagger ( UK 57 ; US 77 ) , including three unreleased songs , on 2 October 2007 . On 12 November 2007 , ABKCO released Rolled Gold : The Very Best of the Rolling Stones ( UK 26 ) , a double - CD remake of the 1975 compilation Rolled Gold . The Rolling Stones in 2008 ( from left to right : Watts , Wood , Richards , Jagger ) at the Berlin Film Festival 's world premiere of Martin Scorsese 's documentary film Shine a Light In March 2008 , Richards sparked rumours that a new Rolling Stones studio album may be forthcoming , saying during an interview following the premiere of Shine a Light , `` I think we might make another album . Once we get over doing promotion on this film '' . Watts remarked that he got ill whenever he stopped working . In July 2008 it was announced that the Rolling Stones were leaving EMI and signing with Vivendi 's Universal Music , taking with them their catalogue stretching back to Sticky Fingers . New music released by the band while under this contract will be issued through Universal 's Polydor label . Mercury Records will hold the US rights to the pre-1994 material , while the post-1994 material will be handled by Interscope Records ( once a subsidiary of Atlantic ) . During the autumn , Jagger and Richards worked with producer Don Was to add new vocals and guitar parts to ten unfinished songs from the Exile on Main St. sessions . Jagger and Taylor also recorded a session together in London where Taylor added lead guitar to what would be the expanded album 's single , `` Plundered My Soul '' . On 17 April 2010 , the band released a limited edition 7 - inch vinyl single of the previously unreleased track `` Plundered My Soul '' as part of Record Store Day . The track , part of the group 's 2010 re-issue of Exile on Main St. , was combined with `` All Down the Line '' as its B - side . The band appeared at Cannes Festival for the premiere of the documentary Stones in Exile ( directed by Stephen Kijak ) about the recording of the album Exile on Main St ... On 23 May , the re-issue of Exile on Main St. reached No. 1 in the UK charts , almost 38 years to the week after it first occupied that position , with the band becoming the first act to see a classic work return to No. 1 decades after it was first released . In the US , the album re-entered the charts at No. 2 . In October 2010 , the Stones released Ladies and Gentlemen : The Rolling Stones to the cinemas and later on to DVD .

Jagger quipped , `` I 'll try and keep the poetry to a minimum , '' and remarked , in respect of the white dress that he wore for the 1969 concert , `` I can still just about get into the zippers . '' On 29 June , the band performed at the Glastonbury Festival 2013 .

Musical development ( edit ) See also : Instruments played by the Rolling Stones A copy of `` Micawber '' , Keith Richards ' signature Telecaster model , in the Fender Guitar Factory Museum The Rolling Stones have assimilated various musical genres into their own collective sound . Throughout the band 's career , their musical contributions have been marked by a continual reference and reliance on musical styles including blues , psychedelia , R&B , country , folk , reggae , dance , and world music , exemplified by Jones ' collaboration with the Master Musicians of Jajouka , as well as traditional English styles that use stringed instrumentation like harps . Brian Jones experimented with the use of non-traditional instruments such as the sitar and slide guitar in their early days . The group started out covering early rock ' n ' roll and blues songs , and have never stopped playing live or recording cover songs . Jagger and Richards shared an admiration of Jimmy Reed , Muddy Waters , Howlin ' Wolf , and Little Walter , which influenced Brian Jones , of whom Richards says , `` He was more into T - Bone Walker and jazz blues stuff . We 'd turn him onto Chuck Berry and say , ' Look , it 's all the same shit , man , and you can do it . ' '' Charlie Watts , a traditional jazz drummer , was also introduced to the blues through his association with the pair . `` Keith and Brian turned me on to Jimmy Reed and people like that . I learned that Earl Phillips was playing on those records like a jazz drummer , playing swing , with a straight four . '' Jagger , recalling when he first heard the likes of Chuck Berry , Bo Diddley , Muddy Waters , Fats Domino , and other major American R&B artists , said it `` seemed the most real thing '' he had heard up to that point . Similarly , Keith Richards , describing the first time he listened to Muddy Waters , said it was the `` most powerful music ( he had ) ever heard ... the most expressive . '' He also stated , `` when you think of some dopey , spotty seventeen year old from Dartford , who wants to be Muddy Waters -- and there were a lot of us -- in a way , very pathetic , but in another way , very ... heartwarming '' . Despite the Rolling Stones ' predilection for blues and R&B numbers on their early live set lists , the first original compositions by the band reflected a more wide - ranging interest . The first Jagger / Richards single , `` Tell Me ( You 're Coming Back ) '' , has been described by critic Richie Unterberger as a `` pop rock ballad ... When ( Jagger and Richards ) began to write songs , they were usually not derived from the blues , but were often surprisingly fey , slow , Mersey - type pop numbers '' . `` As Tears Go By '' , the ballad originally written for Marianne Faithfull , was one of the first songs written by Jagger and Richards and also one of many written by the duo for other artists . Jagger said of the song , `` It 's a relatively mature song considering the rest of the output at the time . And we did n't think of ( recording ) it , because the Rolling Stones were a butch blues group . '' The Rolling Stones did later record a version which became a top five hit in the US . On the early experience , Richards said , `` The amazing thing is that although Mick and I thought these songs were really puerile and kindergarten - time , every one that got put out made a decent showing in the charts . That gave us extraordinary confidence to carry on , because at the beginning songwriting was something we were going to do in order to say to Andrew ( Loog Oldham ) , ' Well , at least we gave it a try ... ' '' Jagger said , `` We were very pop - orientated . We did n't sit around listening to Muddy Waters ; we listened to everything . In some ways it 's easy to write to order ... Keith and I got into the groove of writing those kind of tunes ; they were done in ten minutes . I think we thought it was a bit of a laugh , and it turned out to be something of an apprenticeship for us . '' A Vox Teardrop guitar as used by Brian Jones , on display at the Hard Rock Cafe in Sacramento , California The writing of `` The Last Time '' , the Rolling Stones ' first major single , proved a turning point . Richards called it `` a bridge into thinking about writing for the Stones . It gave us a level of confidence ; a pathway of how to do it . '' The song was based on a traditional gospel song popularised by the Staple Singers , but the Rolling Stones ' number features a distinctive guitar riff , played by Brian Jones . Prior to the emergence of Jagger / Richards as the Stones ' songwriters , the band members occasionally were given collective credit under the pseudonym Nanker Phelge . Some songs attributed to Nanker Phelge have been re-attributed to Jagger / Richards . Beginning with Jones and continuing with Wood , the Rolling Stones have developed what Richards refers to as the `` ancient art of weaving '' responsible for part of their sound -- the interplay between two guitarists on stage . Unlike most bands , the Stones follow Richards ' lead rather than the drummer 's ( Watts ) . Likewise , Watts is primarily a jazz player who was able to bring that genre 's influences to the style of the band 's drumming . The following of Richards ' lead has led to conflicts between Jagger and Richards and they have been known to annoy one another , but they have both agreed it makes a better record ; Watts in particular has praised Jagger 's production skills . In the studio , the band have tended to use a fluid personnel for recordings and not use the same players for each song . Guest pianists were commonplace on recordings ; several songs on Beggars Banquet are driven by Nicky Hopkins ' piano playing . On Exile on Main St. , Richards plays bass on three tracks while Taylor plays on four . Richards started using open tunings for rhythm parts ( often in conjunction with a capo ) , most prominently an open - E or open - D tuning in 1968 . Beginning in 1969 , he often used 5 - string open - G tuning ( with the lower 6th string removed ) , as heard on the 1969 single `` Honky Tonk Women '' , `` Brown Sugar '' ( Sticky Fingers , 1971 ) , `` Tumbling Dice '' ( capo IV ) , `` Happy '' ( capo IV ) ( Exile on Main St. , 1972 ) , and `` Start Me Up '' ( Tattoo You , 1981 ) . The feuds between Jagger and Richards had some origin in the 1970s when Richards was a heroin addict , resulting in Jagger managing the band 's affairs for numerous years . When Richards got himself off heroin and became more present in the decision making , Jagger was not used to this and did not like his authority diminished , resulting in the period which Richards has referred to as `` World War III '' . Musical collaboration between members of the band and supporting musicians was key , due to the fluid lineups typically experienced by the band in the studio , as tracks tended to be recorded `` by whatever members of the group happened to be around at the time of the sessions . '' Over time , Jagger has developed into the template for rock frontmen and , with the help of the Stones , has , in the words of the Telegraph , `` changed music '' through his contributions to it as a pioneer of the modern music industry . Legacy ( edit ) Overhead shot of the Stones concert at Washington -- Grizzly Stadium in Montana , October 2006 . The Stones have had the highest - grossing concert tour three times Since their formation in 1962 , the Rolling Stones survived multiple feuds and have gone on to release 30 studio albums , 13 live albums and 109 singles . According to OfficialCharts.com , the Stones are ranked the fourth bestselling group of all time , with their top single being `` ( I Ca n't Get No ) Satisfaction '' , regarded by many at the time as `` the classic example of rock and roll . '' The Stones have also contributed to the blues lexicon , creating their own `` codewords '' and slang , which they have used throughout their catalog of songs , including some of their more popular songs . The band has been viewed as the musical `` vanguard of a major transfusion '' of various cultural attitudes , making them accessible to youth in both America and Britain . Muddy Waters was quoted as stating that the Rolling Stones and other English bands enhanced the interest of American youth into blues musicians ; after they came to the United States , sales of Waters ' albums -- and those of other blues musicians -- increased with public interest , thus helping to reconnect the country with its own music . The Rolling Stones have sold over 240 million albums worldwide and have held over 48 tours of varying length . The Stones have also held three of the highest - grossing tours of all time , Bridges to Babylon , Voodoo Lounge , and A Bigger Bang . In May 2013 , Rolling Stone declared them the `` most definitional band that rock & roll has produced , '' with the Telegraph stating that Mick Jagger was `` the Rolling Stone who changed music '' . The band has been the subject of numerous documentaries and were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame by Pete Townshend in 1989 . The Rolling Stones have inspired and mentored new generations of musical artists both as a band and individually . They are also credited with changing the `` whole business model of popular music . '' The band has received -- and been nominated for -- multiple awards during their 55 years as a band ; including three Grammy awards ( and 12 nominations ) , the Juno award for International Entertainer of the Year in 1991 , U.K. 's Jazz FM Awards Album of the Year ( 2017 ) for their album Blue & Lonesome , and NME awards such as best live band and the NME award for best music film , for their documentary Crossfire Hurricane . Tours ( edit ) Main article : The Rolling Stones concerts The Rolling Stones ' first concert was on 12 July 1962 at the Marquee Club in London . The most documented of all the band 's concerts was the Altamont Free Concert at the Altamont Speedway in 1969 . For this concert , the biker gang Hells Angels provided security , which resulted in a fan , Meredith Hunter , being stabbed and beaten to death by the Angels . Part of the tour and the Altamont concert were documented in Albert and David Maysles ' film Gimme Shelter . As a response to the growing popularity of bootleg recordings , the album Get Yer Ya - Yas Out ! ( UK 1 ; US 6 ) was released in 1970 ; it was declared by critic Lester Bangs to be the best live album ever . From small clubs and hotels in London with little room for Jagger to move around to selling out stadiums worldwide , Rolling Stones tours have significantly changed over the decades . Setups for the band started off simplistic compared to what they later became in the band 's career . with pyrotechnics , giant screens , and elaborate stage designs . By the Rolling Stones American tour of 1969 , the band began to fill large halls and arenas , such as The Forum in Inglewood , California . They were also using more equipment , such as lighting rigs and better sound equipment compared to the clubs . The 1969 tour is considered a `` great watershed tour '' by Mick Jagger due to the fact that they `` started hanging the sound and therefore hanging the lights '' . Attributing the birth of arena rock to the Stones 1969 US tour , The Guardian ranked the tour number 19 on their list of the 50 key events in rock music history . Prior to the tour the loudest sound at big - capacity shows was often the crowd , so the Stones ensured they had lighting and sound systems that would allow them to be seen and heard in the biggest arenas , with The Guardian stating their `` combination of front - of - house excellence and behind the scenes savvy took the business of touring to an entirely new level . '' During the 1972 tour , the Stones developed a complex light show in which they hung up giant mirrors and bounced the light off them . During the 1975 Tour of the Americas , arena shows became an industry for the band and the Stones hired a new lighting director , Jules Fisher . The props used on stage by the band increased in both size and sophistication , similar to things done on Broadway . The band started to use multiple stages , from which they would select for a particular show . On this tour they had two versions what Jagger referred to as the `` lotus stage '' -- one version of the stage that had a large Venetian ( cylindrical ) curtain and the other has leaves that would start in the folded up position and lower during the beginning of the concert . This period also included a variety of props , including inflatables and other gimmicks ranging from inflatable penises `` and things . '' The tour also incorporated a number of circus tricks . `` ... at the beginning of the show the stage was completely covered with a kind of sheath gauze . I had to get inside the lotus , climb up a ladder and hang on like grim death to one of the petals , which then opened to reveal the band playing . '' -- Mick Jagger , speaking of stage design in According to The Rolling Stones Runway ( pictured in 2012 ) first appeared in Stones ' concerts in 1981 During the 1981 -- 1982 American tour , the Stones worked with Japanese designer Kazuhide Yamazari in constructing their stages for stadium sized locations and audiences . During this period , stages increased in size to include runways , movable sections of stage going out into the audience , and growing in all other aspects . This tour used coloured panels and was one of the last Stones tours to do so before switching to devices such as video screens . Stadium shows provided a new challenge for the band , the venues were large enough in size that the band became `` like ants '' to audience members . This resulted in Jagger having to project himself `` over the footlights '' and the band needing to employ more gimmicks , such as pyrotechnics , lights , and video screens . `` When you 're out there in this vast stadium , you have to physically tiny up on stage , so that 's why on the 1981 - 2 tour we had those coloured panels and later we started using devices like video screens . We became very aware of not being seen , of just being there like ants . Mick is the one who really has to project himself over the footlights . And when the show gets that big , you need a little extra help , you need a couple of gimmicks , as we call it , in the show . You need fireworks , you need lights , you need a bit of theatre . '' -- Charlie Watts , According to the Rolling Stones As time went on , their props and stage equipment became increasingly sophisticated . When they started to fill stadium sized venues and bigger , they ran into the problem of the audience no longer being able to see them due to the increased seating capacity -- this problem was especially clear in their free 2006 concert in Rio de Janeiro on the A Bigger Bang tour , which used over 500 lights , hundreds of speakers , and a video screen almost 13 metres in length . Due to the vast size of the beach which the Stones performed on ( 2.5 km ) , sound systems had to be set up in a relay pattern down the length of the beach , in order to keep the sound in sync with music from the stage ; for every 340 metres of beach , the sound had to be delayed an additional second .

It is unique among the ancient pre-ecumenical councils in that it is considered by Catholics and Orthodox to be a prototype and forerunner of the later ecumenical councils and a key part of Christian ethics . The council decided that Gentile converts to Christianity were not obligated to keep most of the Law of Moses , including the rules concerning circumcision of males . The Council did , however , retain the prohibitions on eating blood , meat containing blood , and meat of animals not properly slain , and on fornication and idolatry , sometimes referred to as the Apostolic Decree or Jerusalem Quadrilateral . Accounts of the council are found in Acts of the Apostles chapter 15 ( in two different forms , the Alexandrian and Western versions ) and also possibly in Paul 's letter to the Galatians chapter 2 . Some scholars dispute that Galatians 2 is about the Council of Jerusalem ( notably because Galatians 2 describes a private meeting ) while other scholars dispute the historical reliability of the Acts of the Apostles . Contents ( hide ) 1 Historical background 2 Issues and outcome 3 Historicity 4 Interpreting the Council 's decision 4.1 Modern interpretation 4.1. 1 Circumcision 5 See also 6 Footnotes 7 References 8 Further reading 9 External links Historical background ( edit ) See also : Biblical law in Christianity § History and background , and Circumcision controversy in early Christianity § Jewish background The Council of Jerusalem is generally dated to 48 AD , roughly 15 to 25 years after the crucifixion of Jesus , between 26 and 36 AD . Acts 15 and Galatians 2 both suggest that the meeting was called to debate whether or not male Gentiles who were converting to become followers of Jesus were required to become circumcised ; circumcision was considered repulsive during the period of Hellenization of the Eastern Mediterranean . At the time , most followers of Jesus ( which historians refer to as Jewish Christians ) were Jewish by birth and even converts would have considered the early Christians as a part of Judaism . According to Alister McGrath , the Jewish Christians affirmed every aspect of the then contemporary Second Temple Judaism with the addition of the belief that Jesus was the Messiah . Unless males were circumcised , they could not be God 's People . The meeting was called to decide whether circumcision for gentile converts was requisite for community membership since certain individuals were teaching that `` ( u ) nless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses , you can not be saved '' . Circumcision as a mandate was associated with Abraham ( see also Abrahamic covenant ) , but it is cited as `` the custom of Moses '' because Moses is considered the traditional giver of the Law as a whole . The circumcision mandate was made more official and binding in the Mosaic Law Covenant . In John 7 : 22 the words of Jesus are reported to be that Moses gave the people circumcision . Issues and outcome ( edit ) The purpose of the meeting , according to Acts , was to resolve a disagreement in Antioch , which had wider implications than just circumcision , since circumcision is the `` everlasting '' sign of the Abrahamic Covenant ( Genesis 17 : 9 -- 14 ) . Some of the Pharisees who had become believers insisted that it was `` needful to circumcise them , and to command ( them ) to keep the law of Moses '' ( KJV ) . The primary issue which was addressed related to the requirement of circumcision , as the author of Acts relates , but other important matters arose as well , as the Apostolic Decree indicates . The dispute was between those , such as the followers of the `` Pillars of the Church '' , led by James , who believed , following his interpretation of the Great Commission , that the church must observe the Torah , i.e. the rules of traditional Judaism , and Paul the Apostle , who believed there was no such necessity . ( See also Supersessionism , New Covenant , Antinomianism , Hellenistic Judaism , Paul the Apostle and Judaism . ) At the Council , following advice offered by Simon Peter ( Acts 15 : 7 -- 11 and Acts 15 : 14 ) , Barnabas and Paul gave an account of their ministry among the gentiles ( Acts 15 : 12 ) , and the apostle James quoted from the words of the prophet Amos ( Acts 15 : 16 -- 17 , quoting Amos 9 : 11 -- 12 ) . James added his own words to the quotation : `` Known to God from eternity are all His works '' and then submitted a proposal , which was accepted by the Church and became known as the Apostolic Decree : It is my judgment , therefore , that we should not make it difficult for the Gentiles who are turning to God . Instead we should write to them , telling them to abstain from food polluted by idols , from sexual immorality , from the meat of strangled animals and from blood . For the law of Moses has been preached in every city from the earliest times and is read in the synagogues on every Sabbath . ( Acts 15 : 19 -- 21 ) Acts 15 : 23 -- 29 sets out the content of the letter written in accordance with James ' proposal . The Western version of Acts ( see Acts of the Apostles : Manuscripts ) adds the negative form of the Golden Rule ( `` and whatever things ye would not have done to yourselves , do not do to another '' ) . This determined questions wider than that of circumcision , particularly dietary questions , but also fornication and idolatry and blood , and also the application of Biblical law to non-Jews . It was stated by the Apostles and Elders in the Council : `` the Holy Spirit and we ourselves have favored adding no further burden to you , except these necessary things , to abstain from things sacrificed to idols , and from blood , and from things strangled , and from fornication . If you carefully keep yourselves from these things , you will prosper . '' ( Acts 15 : 27 -- 28 ) And this Apostolic Decree was considered binding on all the other local Christian congregations in other regions . See also Biblical law directed at non-Jews , Seven Laws of Noah , Biblical law in Christianity , and the Ten Commandments in Christianity . The writer of Acts gives an account of a restatement by James and the elders in Jerusalem of the contents of the letter on the occasion of Paul 's final Jerusalem visit , immediately prior to Paul 's arrest at the temple , recounting : `` When we had come to Jerusalem , the brothers received us gladly . On the following day Paul went in with us to James , and all the elders were present . '' ( Acts 21 : 17 -- 18 , ESV ) The elders then proceed to notify Paul of what seems to have been a common concern among Jewish believers , that he was teaching Diaspora Jewish converts to Christianity `` to forsake Moses , telling them not to circumcise their children or walk according to our customs . '' They remind the assembly that , `` as for the Gentiles who have believed , we have sent a letter with our judgment that they should abstain from what has been sacrificed to idols , and from blood , and from what has been strangled , and from sexual immorality '' . In the view of some scholars , the reminder of James and the elders here is an expression of concern that Paul was not fully teaching the decision of the Jerusalem Council 's letter to Gentiles , particularly in regard to non-strangled kosher meat , which contrasts with Paul 's advice to Gentiles in Corinth , to `` eat whatever is sold in the meat markets '' ( 1 Corinthians 10 : 25 ) . Historicity ( edit ) See also : Historical reliability of the Acts of the Apostles The description of the Apostolic Council in Acts 15 , generally considered the same event described in Galatians 2 , is considered by some scholars to be contradictory to the Galatians account . The historicity of Luke 's account has been challenged , and was rejected completely by some scholars in the mid to late 20th century . However , more recent scholarship inclines towards treating the Jerusalem Council and its rulings as a historical event , though this is sometimes expressed with caution . Bruce Metzger 's Textual Commentary on the Greek New Testament includes a summary of current research on the topic as of about 1994 : In conclusion , therefore , it appears that the least unsatisfactory solution of the complicated textual and exegetical problems of the Apostolic Decree is to regard the fourfold decree as original ( foods offered to idols , strangled meat , eating blood , and unchastity -- whether ritual or moral ) , and to explain the two forms of the threefold decree in some such way as those suggested above . An extensive literature exists on the text and exegesis of the Apostolic Decree ... According to Jacques Dupont , `` Present day scholarship is practically unanimous in considering the ' Eastern ' text of the decree as the only authentic text ( in four items ) and in interpreting its prescriptions in a sense not ethical but ritual '' ( Les problèmes du Livre des Actes d'après les travaux récents ( Louvain , 1950 ) , p. 70 ) . Interpreting the Council 's decision ( edit ) See also : Paul the Apostle and Judaism and Early Christianity Part of a series on Jewish Christianity Figures Jesus John the Baptist Simon Peter Twelve Apostles James , brother of Jesus Simeon of Jerusalem Jude Paul Ancient groups Ebionites Elcesaites Nazarenes Pejoratives Judaizers Legalists Pauline Christianity Recent groups Hebrew Christian movement Messianic Judaism Saint Thomas Christians Adversity Split of Christianity and Judaism Paul and Judaism Marcionism Christian anti-semitism Constantine Writings Gospel of Matthew Epistle of James Clementine Didache Liturgy of St James Book of Elchasai Jewish -- Christian gospels Gospel of the Ebionites Gospel of the Hebrews Gospel of the Nazarenes Issues Aramaic of Jesus Yeshua ( name ) Council of Jerusalem Expounding of the Law Sabbath Quartodecimanism Noahide laws James 's Apostolic Decree was that most Mosaic law , including the requirement for circumcision of males , was not obligatory for Gentile converts , possibly in order to make it easier for them to join the movement . However , the Council did retain the prohibitions against Gentile converts eating meat containing blood , or meat of animals not properly slain . It also retained the prohibitions against `` fornication '' and `` idol worship '' . See also Old Testament Law directed at non-Jews . In effect , the Jerusalem Church created a flexible approach which some accuse of being a double - standard : one for Jewish Christians and one for Gentile converts ( for the parallel in Judaism , see Convert to Judaism and Noahides ) . The Decree may be a major act of differentiation of the Church from its Jewish roots , depending on when Jewish Noahide law was developed . Around the same time period , the authorities of Rabbinic Judaism made their circumcision requirement even stricter . The decision created a category of persons who were members of the Christian community ( which still considered itself to be part of the Jewish community ) who , in certain situations , would be unacceptable to the wider Jewish community , because they were uncircumcised , besides other objections relating to the 613 mitzvot . On the other hand , some in the early Church did not take long to decide that the Torah requirements were not necessary for Jewish converts either ( see the Epistle to the Hebrews , and Justin Martyr 's Dialog with Trypho and Marcionism ; Paul also repeatedly states that Jews and Gentiles are one in Christ , which may be interpreted as saying that they are not distinguished in any way , including their relationship to the Mosaic Law , but this is just one interpretation and the issues of Paul the Apostle and Judaism and interpretation of Pauline passages supporting antinomianism and Pauline passages opposing antinomianism are still widely disputed . See also Criticism of Dual - Covenant theology ) . Determining what followed depends on how reliable one believes the various texts to be . Some scholars have taken a very skeptical view of the probity of Acts . Moreover , Paul seems to have refused `` to be tied down to particular patterns of behavior and practice '' . For example , see 1 Corinthians 9 : 20 -- 23 . He does not engage in a dispute with those Corinthians who apparently feel quite free to eat anything offered to idols , never appealing or even mentioning the Jerusalem council . He rather attempts to persuade them by appealing to the care they should have for other believers who might not feel so free . From its position of dominance , due in part to its leadership by James , the Jerusalem Church suffered first persecution and eventual decline , but never total elimination ( see for example Orthodox Patriarch of Jerusalem and Jerusalem in Christianity and Pentarchy ) . The question of the relationship with Jews and Jewish Christians continued for some time , indeed it is still debated today . Modern interpretation ( edit ) Jewish Encyclopedia : New Testament -- Spirit of Jewish Proselytism in Christianity states : For great as was the success of Barnabas and Paul in the heathen world , the authorities in Jerusalem insisted upon circumcision as the condition of admission of members into the church , until , on the initiative of Peter , and of James , the head of the Jerusalem church , it was agreed that acceptance of the Noachian Laws -- namely , regarding avoidance of idolatry , fornication , and the eating of flesh cut from a living animal -- should be demanded of the heathen desirous of entering the Church . Jewish Encyclopedia : Gentiles : Gentiles May Not Be Taught the Torah states : R. Emden , in a remarkable apology for Christianity contained in his appendix to `` Seder ' Olam '' ( pp. 32b - 34b , Hamburg , 1752 ) , gives it as his opinion that the original intention of Jesus , and especially of Paul , was to convert only the Gentiles to the seven moral laws of Noah and to let the Jews follow the Mosaic law -- which explains the apparent contradictions in the New Testament regarding the laws of Moses and the Sabbath . The Catholic Encyclopedia article on Judaizers states : Paul , on the other hand , not only did not object to the observance of the Mosaic Law , as long as it did not interfere with the liberty of the Gentiles , but he conformed to its prescriptions when occasion required ( 1Corinthians 9 : 20 ) . Thus he shortly after circumcised Timothy ( Acts 16 : 1 -- 3 ) , and he was in the very act of observing the Mosaic ritual when he was arrested at Jerusalem ( Acts 21 : 26 sqq . ) Joseph Fitzmyer disputes the claim that the Apostolic Decree is based on Noahide Law ( Gen 9 ) and instead proposes Lev 17 -- 18 as the basis , see also Leviticus 18 . He also argues that the decision was meant as a practical compromise to help Jewish and Gentile Christians to get along , not a theological statement intended to bind Christians for all time . According to the 19th - century Roman Catholic Bishop Karl Josef von Hefele , the Apostolic Decree of the Jerusalem Council `` has been obsolete for centuries in the West '' , though it is still recognized and observed by the Greek Orthodox Church . Acts 28 Hyperdispensationalists , such as the 20th century Anglican E.W. Bullinger , would be another example of a group that believes the decree ( and everything before Acts 28 ) no longer applies . Circumcision ( edit ) This section needs expansion with : Fill in all citations needed Synchronize with section Religious male circumcision # In Christianity . You can help by adding to it . ( May 2014 ) Main article : Religious male circumcision § In Christianity Most Christians consider circumcision to be only an optional ritual , but Orthodox Judaism considers it one of the mandatory 613 mitzvot , following Genesis 17 : 10 -- 27 , and the signature - law ( or eternal sign ) by which men signed the covenant with God , in blood , and thereby became a People of God , subject to God 's protection and curse . This , according to the Torah , was the way that Abraham signed the covenant with God and thereby started Judaism , see also Abrahamic religions # Circumcision . In the 1st century AD , modern anesthesia and antibiotics did not exist and the death - rates were high from even minor medical operations . Demanding a Gentile adult male be circumcised in order to become a follower of Jesus , may not only have been terrifying , but it may have been life - threatening . This is the reason why this Council was called by Jesus ' apostle James , who , according to Paul 's account in Galatians 2 : 10 concluded that Paul would not have to demand his men to become circumcised , and according to Luke 's account in Acts 15 : 13 -- 21 , James not only permitted uncircumcised men to remain in the group , but he said in closing the Council ( Acts 15 : 19 ) `` We should not trouble the Gentiles who are turning to God . '' As for Orthodox Judaism today , the rabbis do not believe that Gentiles need to be circumcised , unless they wish to convert to Judaism , which is discouraged . Instead , Gentiles need only follow the Seven Laws of Noah to be assured of a place in the `` World to Come '' .

'' ^ According to Bruce Metzger 's Textual Commentary on the Greek New Testament : `` the Apostolic Decree ( 15.29 , 15.20 , 21.25 ) ... contain many problems concerning text and exegesis '' ; `` it is possible ... ( fornication means ) marriage within the prohibited Levitical Degrees ( Leviticus 18 : 6 -- 18 ) , which the rabbis described as `` forbidden for porneia '' , or mixed marriages with pagans ( Numbers 25 : 1 ; also compare 2Corinthians 6.14 ) , or participation in pagan worship which had long been described by Old Testament prophets as spiritual adultery and which , in fact , offered opportunity in many temples for religious prostitution `` ; `` An extensive literature exists on the text and exegesis '' ; NRSV has things polluted by idols , fornication , whatever has been strangled , blood ; NIV has food polluted by idols , sexual immorality , meat of strangled animals , blood ; Young 's has pollutions of the idols , whoredom , strangled thing , blood ; Gaus ' Unvarnished New Testament has pollution of idolatrous sacrifices , unchastity , meat of strangled animals , blood ; NAB has pollution from idols , unlawful marriage , meat of strangled animals , blood . Karl Josef von Hefele 's commentary on canon II of Gangra notes : `` We further see that , at the time of the Synod of Gangra , the rule of the Apostolic Synod with regard to blood and things strangled was still in force . With the Greeks , indeed , it continued always in force as their Euchologies still show . Balsamon also , the well - known commentator on the canons of the Middle Ages , in his commentary on the sixty - third Apostolic Canon , expressly blames the Latins because they had ceased to observe this command . What the Latin Church , however , thought on this subject about the year 400 , is shown by St. Augustine in his work Contra Faustum , where he states that the Apostles had given this command in order to unite the heathens and Jews in the one ark of Noah ; but that then , when the barrier between Jewish and heathen converts had fallen , this command concerning things strangled and blood had lost its meaning , and was only observed by few . But still , as late as the eighth century , Pope Gregory the Third ( 731 ) forbade the eating of blood or things strangled under threat of a penance of forty days . No one will pretend that the disciplinary enactments of any council , even though it be one of the undisputed Ecumenical Synods , can be of greater and more unchanging force than the decree of that first council , held by the Holy Apostles at Jerusalem , and the fact that its decree has been obsolete for centuries in the West is proof that even Ecumenical canons may be of only temporary utility and may be repealed by disuse , like other laws . '' ^ Hillel the Elder when asked by a Gentile to teach the whole Torah while standing on one foot cited the negative form of the Golden Rule , also cited in Tobit 4 : 15 . Jesus in Matthew 7 : 12 , part of the Sermon on the Mount , cited the positive form as summary of the `` Law and Prophets .

Balsamon also , the well - known commentator on the canons of the Middle Ages , in his commentary on the sixty - third Apostolic Canon , expressly blames the Latins because they had ceased to observe this command . What the Latin Church , however , thought on this subject about the year 400 , is shown by St. Augustine in his work Contra Faustum , where he states that the Apostles had given this command in order to unite the heathens and Jews in the one ark of Noah ; but that then , when the barrier between Jewish and heathen converts had fallen , this command concerning things strangled and blood had lost its meaning , and was only observed by few .

Crown - of - thorns starfish - wikipedia Crown - of - thorns starfish Jump to : navigation , search Crown - of - thorns starfish Scientific classification Kingdom : Animalia Phylum : Echinodermata Class : Asteroidea Order : Valvatida Family : Acanthasteridae Genus : Acanthaster Species : Acanthaster planci Binomial name Acanthaster planci ( Linnaeus , 1758 ) The crown - of - thorns starfish , Acanthaster planci , is a large , multiple - armed starfish that usually preys upon hard , or stony , coral polyps ( Scleractinia ) . The crown - of - thorns starfish receives its name from venomous thorn - like spines that cover its upper surface , resembling the biblical crown of thorns . It is one of the largest starfish in the world . A. planci has a very wide Indo - Pacific distribution . It is perhaps most common in Australia , but can occur at tropical and subtropical latitudes from the Red Sea and the east African coast across the Indian Ocean , and across the Pacific Ocean to the west coast of Central America . It occurs where coral reefs or hard coral communities occur in this region .

Its special traits , however , include being disc - shaped , multiple - armed , flexible , prehensile , and heavily spined , and having a large ratio of stomach surface to body mass . Its prehensile ability arises from the two rows of numerous tube feet that extend to the tip of each arm . In being multiple - armed , it has lost the five-fold symmetry ( pentamerism ) typical of starfish , although it begins its life cycle with this symmetry . Adult crown - of - thorns starfish normally range in size from 25 to 35 cm ( 9.8 to 13.8 in ) . They have up to 21 arms . Although the body of the crown of thorns has a stiff appearance , it is able to bend and twist to fit around the contours of the corals on which it feeds . The underside of each arm has a series of closely fitting plates which form a groove and extend in rows to the mouth . They are usually of subdued colours , pale brown to grey - green , but they may be garish with bright warning colours in some parts of their wide range . The long , sharp spines on the sides of the starfish 's arms and upper ( aboral ) surface resemble thorns and create a crown - like shape , giving the creature its name . The spines are stiff and very sharp , and readily pierce through soft surfaces . Despite the battery of sharp spines on the aboral surface and blunt spines on the oral surface , the crown - of - thorns starfish 's general body surface is membranous and soft . When the starfish is removed from the water , the body surface ruptures and the body fluid leaks out , so the body collapses and flattens . The spines bend over and flatten , as well . They recover their shape when reimmersed , if they are still alive . Taxonomy ( edit ) Family ( edit ) The family Acanthasteridae is monogeneric ; its position within the Asteroides is unsettled . It is generally recognised as a distinctly isolated taxon . Recently , Blake concluded from comparative morphology studies of Acanthaster planci that it has strong similarities with various members of the Oreasteridae . He transferred Acanthasteridae from the Spinulosida to the Valvatida and assigned it a position near to the Oreasteridae , from which it appears to be derived . He attributed Acanthaster morphology as possibly evolving in association with its locomotion over irregular coral surfaces in higher energy environments . There is a complication , however , in that Acanthaster is not a monospecific genus and any consideration of the genus must also take into account another species , Acanthaster brevispinus , which lives in a completely different environment . A. brevispinus lives on soft substrates , perhaps buried in the substrate at times like other soft substrate - inhabiting starfish , at moderate depths where presumably the surface is regular and there is little wave action . Genus and species ( edit ) Short - spined form from Gulf of California -- live specimen Acanthaster planci has a long history in the scientific literature with great confusion in the generic and species names from the outset , with a long list of complex synonyms . As a very distinctive starfish , it is not surprising that it was first described in 1705 . Rhumphius used the name Stella marina quindecium radiotorum . Later , Linnaeus described it as Asterias planci , based on an illustration by Plancus and Gualtieri ( 1743 ) , when he introduced his system of binomial nomenclature . No type specimens are known ; the specimen described by Plancus and Gualtieri ( 1743 ) is no longer extant . Subsequent generic names used for the crown - of - thorns starfish included Stellonia , Echinaster and Echinites , before settling on Acanthaster ( Gervais 1841 ) . Species names included echintes , solaris , mauritensis , ellisii , and ellisii pseudoplanci ( with subspecies ) . Most of these names arose from confusion in the historical literature , but Acanthaster ellisii came to be used for the distinctive starfish in the eastern Pacific Gulf of California . The eastern Pacific Acanthaster is very distinctive ( see image to the right ) with its rather ' plump ' body , large disk to total diameter ratio and short , blunt spines . It gives the impression of living in a habitat where having sharp defenses against predators has little value , although it lives on coral reef and feeds on coral . Genetic studies ( edit ) Nishida and Lucas examined variation at 14 allozyme loci of ten population samples of A. planci using starch - gel electrophoresis . The samples were from localities across the Pacific : Ryukyu archipelago ( four locations ) , Micronesia ( two locations ) , and samples from one location each of the Great Barrier Reef , Fiji , Hawaii , and Gulf of California . A sample of 10 specimens of A. brevispinus from the Great Barrier Reef region was included for comparison . There was considerable genetic differentiation between the A. brevispinus and A. planci populations ( D = 0.20 + / - 0.02 ) ( D is genetic distance ) . The genetic differences between geographic populations of A. planci were , however , small ( D = 0.03 + / - 0.00 ; Fsr = 0.07 + 0.02 ) ( Fsr is standardized genetic variance for each polymorphic locus ) despite the great distances separating them . A positive correlation was observed between degree of genetic differentiation and geographic distance , suggesting the genetic homogeneity among A. planci populations is due to gene flow by planktonic larval dispersion . The distance effect on genetic differentiation most probably reflects decreasing levels of successful larval dispersal over long distances . In view of the level of macrogeographic homogeneity , significant allele frequency differences were observed between adjacent populations separated by approximately 10 km . The Hawaiian population was most differentiated from other populations . Treating the morphologically distinctive , eastern Pacific Acanthaster as a separate species , A. ellisii , is not supported by these data . The lack of unique alleles in the central ( Hawaii ) and eastern Pacific ( Gulf of California ) populations suggests they were derived from those in the western Pacific . Further details of the genetic relationship between A. planci and Acanthaster brevispinus are presented in the entry for the latter species . These are clearly sibling species and it is suggested that A. planci , the specialised coral - feeding species arose from A. brevispinus , the less specialised soft - bottom inhabitant . In a very comprehensive geographic study , Benzie examined allozyme loci variation in 20 populations of A. planci , throughout the Pacific and Indian Oceans . The most striking result was a very marked discontinuity between the Indian and Pacific Ocean populations . Those , however , off northern Western Australia had a strong Pacific affinity . With the exception of the very strong connection of southern Japanese populations to the Great Barrier Reef populations , the patterns of variation within regions were consistent with isolation by distance . Again , the pattern of decreasing levels of successful larval dispersal over long distances is apparent . Benzie suggests that the divergence between Indian Ocean and Pacific Ocean populations began at least 1.6 million years ago and is likely to reflect responses to changes in climate and sea level . A more recent comprehensive geographic study of A. planci by Vogler et al. , using DNA analyses ( one mitochondrial gene ) , suggests it is actually a species complex consisting of four species or clades . The four cryptic species / clades are defined geographically : northern Indian Ocean , southern Indian Ocean , Red Sea and Pacific Ocean . These molecular data suggest the species / clades diverged 1.95 and 3.65 million years ago . ( The divergence of A. planci and A. brevispinus is not included in this time - scale . ) The authors suggest the differences between the four putative species in behaviour , diet or habitat may be important for the design of appropriate reef conservation strategies . There are , however , problems with this proposal of cryptic speciation ( cryptic species ) . The basis of these data from one mitochondrial gene . mtDNA data are , however , only one source of information about the status of taxa and the use of one mtDNA gene as a sole criterion for species identification is disputed . The allozyme data should also be taken into account . Three localities that were sampled by Vogler et al. are of particular interest : Palau Sebibu , UEA and Oman were found to have two clades / sibling species in sympatry . These are important to investigate the nature of the co-existence and barriers to introgression of genetic material . A. planci as a taxon is a generalist , being amongst the most ubiquitous of large coral predators on coral reefs , feeding on virtually all hard coral species , reproducing during summer without a pattern of spawning and often participating in mass multi-species spawnings , and releasing vast amounts of gametes that trigger spawning in other individuals . It is very difficult to conceive of two species / clades of A. planci in sympatry without habitat competition and introgression of genetic material , especially the latter . Biology ( edit ) Toxins ( edit ) Broken and regenerating spines Swollen right hand after punctured Frothing in water containing A. planci Starfish handled to avoid damaging it ( spines on the underside are blunt ) Starfish are characterised by having saponins known as asterosaponins in their tissues . They contain a mix of these saponins , and at least 15 chemical studies have been conducted seeking to characterise these saponins . The saponins have detergent - like properties , and keeping starfish in limited water volumes with aeration results in large amounts of foam at the surface . A. planci has no mechanism for injecting the toxin , but as the spines perforate tissue of a predator or unwary person , tissue containing the saponins is lost into the wound . In humans , this immediately causes a sharp , stinging pain that can last for several hours , persistent bleeding due to the haemolytic effect of saponins , and nausea and tissue swelling that may persist for a week or more . The spines , which are brittle , may also break off and become embedded in the tissue where they must be removed surgically . Saponins seem to occur throughout the lifecycle of the crown - of - thorns starfish . The saponins in the eggs are similar to those in the adult tissues , and presumably these carry over to the larvae . The mouthing behaviour of predators of juvenile starfish with rejection suggests the juveniles contain saponins . Behaviour ( edit ) Juveniles concealed under coral rubble Feeding scars of white coral skeleton Feeding on branching Acropora coral Starfish ' competing ' for remaining live coral The adult crown - of - thorns is a carnivorous predator that usually preys on reef coral polyps . It climbs onto a section of living coral colony using the large number of tube feet on its oral surface and flexible body . It fits closely to the surface of the coral , even the complex surfaces of branching corals . It then extrudes its stomach out through its mouth over the surface to virtually its own diameter . The stomach surface secretes digestive enzymes that allow the starfish to absorb nutrients from the liquefied coral tissue . This leaves a white scar of coral skeleton which is rapidly infested with filamentous algae . An individual starfish can consume up to 6 square metres ( 65 sq ft ) of living coral reef per year . In a study of feeding rates on two coral reefs in the central Great Barrier Reef region , large starfish ( 40 cm and greater diameter ) killed about 61 cm2 / day in winter and 357 -- 478 cm2 / day in summer . Smaller starfish , 20 -- 39 cm , killed 155 and 234 cm2 / day in the equivalent seasons . The area killed by the large starfish is equivalent to about 10 m ( 110 sq ft ) from these observations . Differences in feeding and locomotion rates between summer and winter reflect the fact that the crown - of - thorns , like all marine invertebrates , is a poikilotherm whose body temperature and metabolic rate are directly affected by the temperature of the surrounding water . In tropical coral reefs , crown - of - thorns specimens reach mean locomotion rates of 35 cm / min , which explains how outbreaks can damage large reef areas in relatively short periods . The starfish show preferences between the hard corals on which they feed . They tend to feed on branching corals and table - like corals , such as Acropora species , rather than on more rounded corals with less exposed surface area , such as Porites species . Avoidance of Porites and some other corals may also be due to resident bivalve molluscs and polychaete worms in the surface of the coral which discourage the starfish . Similarly , some symbionts , such as small crabs , living within the complex structures of branching corals , may ward off the starfish as it seeks to spread its stomach over the coral surface . In reef areas of low densities of hard coral , reflecting the nature of the reef community or due to feeding by high density crown - of - thorns , the starfish may be found feeding on soft corals ( Alcyonacea ) . The starfish are cryptic in behavior during their first two years , emerging at night to feed . They usually remain so as adults when solitary . The only evidence of a hidden individual may be white feeding scars on adjacent coral . However , their behavior changes under two circumstances : During the breeding season , which is typically during early to midsummer , the starfish may gather together high on a reef and synchronously release gametes to achieve high levels of egg fertilisation . This pattern of synchronised spawning is not at all unique , but it is very common amongst marine invertebrates that do not copulate . Solitary spawning gives no opportunity for fertilisation of eggs and wastes gametes and evidence exists of a spawning pheromone that causes the starfish to aggregate and release gametes synchronously . When the starfish are at high densities , they may move day and night , competing for living coral . Predators ( edit ) A Triton 's trumpet ( Charonia tritonis ) , one of the main predators of A. planci . The elongated sharp spines covering nearly the entire upper surface of the crown - of - thorns serve as a mechanical defense against large predators . It also has a chemical defense . Saponins presumably serve as an irritant when the spines pierce a predator , in the same way as they do when they pierce the skin of humans . Saponins have an unpleasant taste . A study to test the predation rate on juvenile Acanthaster by appropriate fish species found that the starfish were often mouthed , tasted , and rejected . These defenses tend to make it an unattractive target for coral community predators . In spite of this , however , Acanthaster populations are typically composed of a proportion of individuals with regenerating arms . A variety of about 11 species have been reported to prey occasionally on uninjured and healthy adults of A. planci . All of these are generalist feeders and none of these , however , seems to specifically prefer the starfish as a food source . This number , however , is probably lower , as some of these presumed predators have not been witnessed reliably in the field . Some of those witnessed are : A species of pufferfish and two triggerfish have been observed to feed on crown - of - thorns starfish in the Red Sea , and , although they may have some effect on the A. planci population , no evidence exists of systematic predation . The Triton 's trumpet , a very large gastropod mollusc , is a known predator of Acanthaster in some parts of the starfish 's range . The triton has been described as tearing the starfish to pieces with its file - like radula . The small painted shrimp Hymenocera picta , a general predator of starfish , has been found to prey on A. planci at some locations . A polychaete worm , Pherecardia striata , was observed to be feeding on the starfish together with the shrimp on an east Pacific coral reef . About 0.6 % of the starfish in the reef population were being attacked by both the shrimp and polychaete worm , killing the starfish in about a week . Glynn suggested this resulted in a balance between mortality and recruitment in this population , leading to a relatively stable population of starfish . Since P. striata can only attack a damaged A. planci and cause its death , it may be regarded as an ' impatient scavenger ' rather than a predator . As distinct from predators , dead and mutilated adults of A. planci attract a number of scavengers . Glynn lists two polychaete worms , a hermit crab , a sea urchin , and seven species of small reef fish . Apparently , they are able to tolerate the distasteful saponins for an easy meal . A large polyp - like creature of the genus Pseudocorynactis was observed attacking , and then wholly ingesting a crown - of - thorns starfish of similar size . Continued studies revealed this polyp is able to completely ingest a crown - of - thorns specimen of up to 34 cm ( 13 in ) in diameter . Life - cycle ( edit ) Gametes and embryos ( edit ) Stained cross-section of ripe ovary full of ova Stained cross-section of testis ( sperm are blue ) Spawning First cell divisions within fertilised eggs , ca . 0.3 mm diam Free - living gastrula stage , ca . 0.5 mm long Gonads increase in size as the animals become sexually mature and at maturity fill the arms and extend into the disk region . The ripe ovaries and testes are readily distinguished with the former being more yellow and having larger lobes . In section they are very different with the ovaries densely filled with nutrient - packed ova ( see ovum and photograph ) and the testes densely filled with sperm , which consist of little more than a nucleus and flagellum . Fecundity in female Crown - of - thorns starfish is related to size with large starfish committing proportionally more energy into ova production such that a : 200 mm diameter female produces 0.5 -- 2.5 million eggs representing 2 -- 8 % of its wet weight 300 mm diameter female produces 6.5 -- 14 million eggs representing 9 -- 14 % of its wet weight 400 mm diameter female produces 47 -- 53 million eggs representing 20 -- 25 % of its wet weight In coral reefs in the Philippines , female specimens were found with a gonadosomatic index ( ratio of gonad mass to body mass ) as high as 22 % , which underlines the high fecundity of this starfish . Babcock et al. ( 1993 ) monitored changes in fecundity and fertility ( fertilisation rate ) over the spawning season of the Crown - of - thorns starfish on Davies Reef , central Great Barrier Reef , from 1990 to 1992 . The starfish were observed to spawn ( photograph ) from December to January ( early to mid-summer ) in this region with most observations being in January . However , both gonadosomatic index and fertility peaked early and declined to low levels by late January , indicating that most successful reproductive events took place early in the spawning season . In northern hemisphere coral reefs however , crown - of - thorns populations reproduce in April and May , and were also observed spawning in the Gulf of Thailand in September . High rates of egg fertilisation may be achieved through the behaviour of proximate and synchronised spawning ( see above in Behaviour ) . Embryonic development begins about 1.5 hours after fertilisation , with the early cell divisions ( cleavage ) ( photograph ) . By 8 -- 9 hours it has reached the 64 - cell stage . Larval stages ( edit ) Bipinnaria larva SEM of bipinnaria larva Brachiolaria larva Late brachiolaria with starfish primordium SEM brachiolarian arms By Day 1 the embryo has hatched as a ciliated gastrula stage ( photograph ) . By Day 2 the gut is complete and the larva is now known as a bipinnaria ( photographs ) . It has ciliated bands along the body and uses these to swim and filter feed on microscopic particles , particularly unicellular green flagellates ( phytoplankton ) . The SEM photograph is a scanning electron micrograph , which clearly shows the complex ciliated bands of the bipinnaria larva . By Day 5 it is an early brachiolaria larva . The arms of the bipinnaria have further elongated , there are two stump - like projections in the anterior ( not evident in the photograph ) and structures are developing within the posterior of the larva . In the late brachiolaria larva ( Day 11 ) ( photograph ) the larval arms are elongate and there are three distinctive arms at the anterior with small structures on their inner surfaces ( photographs ) . To this stage the larva has been virtually transparent , but the posterior section is now opaque with the initial development of a starfish . The late brachiolaria is 1 - 1.5 mm . It tends to sink to the bottom and test the substrate with its brachiolar arms , including flexing the anterior body to orient the brachiolar arms against the substrate . This description and assessment of optimum rate of development is based on early studies in the laboratory under attempted optimum conditions . However , not unexpectedly , there are large differences in growth rate and survival under various environmental conditions ( see Causes of population outbreaks ) . Metamorphosis , development and growth ( edit ) Settling brachiolaria larva 5 - armed juvenile starfish immediately after metamorphosis Early juvenile starfish feeding on coralline algae ( = > white feeding scars ) Very young coral - feeding juvenile with full set of arms and madreporites Young coral - feeding juvenile The late brachiolaria search substrates with their arms and , when offered a choice of substrates , tend to settle on coralline algae , which they will subsequently feed on . In the classic pattern for echinoderms , the bilaterally symmetrical larva is replaced by a pentamerously symmetrical stage at metamorphosis , with the latter 's body axis bearing no relationship to that of the larva . Thus the newly metamorphosed starfish are five - armed and are 0.4 -- 1 mm diameter . ( Note the size of the tube feet relative to the size of the animal . ) They feed on the thin coating layers of hard encrusting algae ( coralline algae ) on the undersides of dead coral rubble and other concealed surfaces . They extend their stomach over the surface of the encrusting algae and digest the tissue , as in the feeding by larger crown - of - thorns starfish on hard corals . The living tissue of the encrusting algae is approximately pink to dark red and feeding by these early juveniles results in white scars on the surface of the algae ( photograph ) . During the next months , the juveniles grow and add arms and associated madreporites in the pattern described by Yamaguchi until the adult numbers is attained 5 -- 7 months after metamorphosis . Two hard corals with small polyps , Pocillopora damicornis and Acropora acunimata , were included in the aquaria with the encrusting algae and at about the time the juvenile starfish achieved their full number of arms they began feeding on the corals . Juvenile A. planci that had reached the stage of feeding on coral were then reared for some years in the same large closed - circuit seawater system that was used for the early juveniles . They were moved to larger tanks and kept supplied with coral so that food was not a limiting factor on growth rate . The growth curves of size versus age were sigmoidal , as seen in majority marine invertebrates . There was an initial period of relatively slow growth while the starfish were feeding on coralline algae . This was followed by a phase of rapid growth which led to sexual maturity at the end of the second year . The starfish were in the vicinity of 200 mm diameter at this stage . They continued to grow rapidly and were in the order of 300 mm at 3 years of age . Then they reached a plateau between 3 and 4 years and tended to decline after 4 years . Gonad development was greater in the third and subsequent years than at 2 years and there was a seasonal pattern of gametogenesis and spawning with water temperature being the only apparent cue in the indoor aquarium . Most specimens of A. planci died from ' senility ' during the period 5 - 7.5 years , i.e. they fed poorly and shrank . Field observations of life - cycle ( edit ) The data above are derived from laboratory studies of A. planci , which are much more readily obtained than equivalent data from the field . The laboratory observations , however , accord with the limited field observations of life - cycle . As in laboratory studies where A. planci larvae were found to select coralline algae for settlement , early juveniles ( < 20 mm diameter ) were found on subtidal coralline algae ( Porolithon onkodes ) on the windward reef front of Suva Reef ( Fiji ) . The juveniles were found in a variety of habitats where they were highly concealed : under coral blocks and rubble in the boulder zone of the exposed reef front ; on dead bases of Acropora species in more sheltered areas ; in narrow spaces within the reef crest ; and on the fore - reef slope to depths of 8 m . Growth rates on Suva Reef were found to be 2.6 , 16.7 and 5.3 mm / month increase in diameter in the pre-coral feeding , early coral feeding and adult phases , respectively . This is in accord with the sigmoidal pattern of size versus age observed in laboratory studies , i.e. slow initial growth , a phase of very rapid growth beginning at coral feeding and tapering off of growth after the starfish reaches sexual maturity . In reefs in the Philippines , female and male specimens matured at 13 and 16 cm respectively . Stump identified bands in the upper surface spines of A. planci and attributed these to annual growth bands . He did n't report growth rates based on these age determinations , and mark and recapture data , but he reported that the growth bands revealed 12 + year - old starfish : much older than those that became ' senile ' and died in the laboratory . In a small number of field studies , mortality rates of juvenile A. planci have to found to be very high , e.g. 6.5 % per day for month - old and 0.45 % per day for 7 - month - old . Most of the mortality comes from predators , such as small crabs , that occur in and on the substrate with the juveniles . It is possible , however , that these rates may not reflect mortality over the range of habitats occupied by small juveniles . Ecology. ( edit ) Ecological impact on reefs ( edit ) Coral before A. planci predation Filamentous algae encrusting coral skeletons after A. planci predation Collapsed coral skeletons after A. planci predation and storm Popular anxiety to news of high densities of A. planci on the Great Barrier Reef was reflected in many newspaper reports and publications such as ' Requiem for the Reef ' , which also suggested that there was a cover - up of the extent of damage . There was a popular idea that the coral and with it whole reefs were being destroyed by the starfish . In fact , as described in section 3.2 Behaviour , the starfish preys on coral by digesting the surface of living tissue from the coral skeletons . These skeletons persist , together with the mass of coralline algae that is essential for reef integrity . The initial change ( first order effect ) is loss of the veneer of living coral tissue . A. planci is a component of the fauna of most coral reefs and the effects of A. planci populations on coral reefs are very dependent on the population density . At low densities ( 1 to perhaps 30 / hectare ) the rate at which coral is being preyed upon by the starfish , is less than the growth rate of the coral , i.e. the surface area of living coral is increasing . The starfish may , however , influence the coral community structure . Because the starfish do n't feed indiscriminately they may cause a distribution of coral species and colony sizes that differs from a pattern without them . This is evident by comparison of coral reefs where A. planci has n't been found to the more typical reefs with A. planci . Some ecologists suggest that the starfish has an important and active role in maintaining coral reef biodiversity , driving ecological succession . Before overpopulation became a significant issue , crown - of - thorns prevented fast - growing coral from overpowering the slower growing coral varieties . At high densities ( ' outbreaks ' , ' plagues ' ) , which may be defined as when the starfish are too abundant for the coral food supply , coral cover goes into decline . The starfish must broaden their diet from their preferred species , colony size and shape . The starfish often aggregate during feeding , even at low densities , but during high densities the cleared coral patches become almost continuous or completely continuous ( photograph ) . There are second - order effects of these large areas of predated coral . The bare coral skeletons are rapidly colonised by filamentous algae ( photograph ) Large stands of staghorn coral , Acropora species , may collapse and become rubble reducing the topographical complexity of the reef ( photograph ) Sometimes the predated surfaces are further invaded by macroalgae , soft coral and sponges . These tend to take over reef surfaces for long periods as alternatives to hard coral communities , as , once established , they limit recruitment by hard coral larvae . Aesthetically , in all the above cases , the reef surface is not as attractive as the living coral surface , but it is anything but dead . There is a third - order effect potentially arising from the invasion by filamentous algae . Animals that depend directly or indirectly on hard corals , e.g. for shelter and food , should lose out , and herbivores and less specialist feeders gain . It would be expected that this would be most conspicuous in the fish fauna and long - terms studies of coral reef fish communities confirm this expectation . Observations of species abundance of coral reef fish communities considered 210 fish species from 10 reefs on the Great Barrier Reef . Over a period of 11 years , major disturbances , including outbreaks of A. planci and severe storms , resulted in major declines in coral cover on all reefs . Species abundance of coral reef fishes persisted on nine of the disturbed reefs . Extensive loss of coral resulted in declines in the group of species which were heavily coral - dependent , but this loss of diversity was more than compensated for by increases in the number of species that feed on invertebrates , algae and detritus . Because of this , species abundance in coral reef fish communities was estimated to be greatest at approximately 20 % coral cover . Coral loss > 20 % , however , typically resulted in a decline in abundance of species in coral reef fish communities . The greatest impact , however , came from severe tropical storms , that resulted in an immediate loss of topographical complexity ( photograph ) . Fish species from all trophic levels were more affected than by disturbances , such as A. planci predation , that kill corals but leave the reef framework intact . Population outbreaks ( edit ) Outbreak in French Polynesia Large populations of crown - of - thorns starfish ( sometime emotively known as ' plagues ' ) have been substantiated as occurring at twenty one locations of coral reefs during the 1960s to 1980s . These locations ranged from the Red Sea through the tropical Indo - Pacific region to French Polynesia . There were at least two substantiated repeated outbreaks at ten of these locations . Values of starfish density from 140 / ha to 1,000 / ha have been considered in various reports to be outbreak populations , while starfish densities less than 100 / ha have been considered to be low ; however , at densities below 100 / ha there may be feeding by A. planci that exceeds the growth of coral and there is net loss of coral . From the surveys of many reef locations throughout the starfish 's distribution large abundances of Acanthaster can be categorised as : Primary outbreaks where there are abrupt population increases of at least two magnitudes that can not be explained by the presence of a previous outbreak . Secondary outbreaks that can plausibly be related to previous outbreaks through the reproduction of a previous cohort of the starfish . These may appear as recruits to reefs down current from an existing outbreak population . Chronic situations where there is a persistent moderate to high density population at a reef location where the coral is sparse due to persistent feeding by the starfish . The Great Barrier Reef ( GBR ) is the most outstanding coral reef system in the world because of its great length , number of individual reefs and species diversity . When high densities of Acanthaster which were causing heavy mortality of coral were first seen about Green Island , off Cairns , in 1960 -- 65 , there was considerable alarm . High - density populations were subsequently found of a number of reefs to the south of Green Island , in the Central Great Barrier Reef region Some popular publications suggested that the whole Reef was in danger of dying : ' Requiem for the Reef ' and ' Crown of Thorns : The Death of the Barrier Reef ? ' . They influenced and reflected some public alarm over the state and future of Great Barrier Reef . There have been a number of studies modeling the population outbreaks on the GBR as a means to understand the phenomenon , e.g. The Australian and Queensland governments funded research and set up advisory committees during the period of great anxiety about the nature of the starfish outbreaks on the GBR . They were regarded as not coming to terms with the unprecedented nature and magnitude of this problem and the two references above . Many scientists were criticised for not being able to give definitive but unsubstantiated answers . Others were more definitive in their answers Scientists were criticised for their reticence and for disagreeing on the nature and causes of the outbreaks on the GBR , hence the publication ' Starfish Wars ' ( cf . ' Star Wars ' ) . Causes of population outbreaks ( edit ) There was serious discussion and some strongly held views about the causes of this phenomenon . Some hypotheses focused on changes in the survival of juvenile and adult starfish - the `` predator removal hypothesis '' : over-collecting of tritons , a predator of the starfish overfishing of predators of the starfish decline in predator populations through habitat destruction warmer sea temperatures enhance larvae development Many of the reports of fish preying on Acanthaster are single observations or presumed predation from the nature of the fish . For example , the humphead wrasse may prey on the starfish amongst its more usual diet . Individual puffer fish and trigger - fish have been observed to feed crown - of - thorns starfish in the Red Sea , but there is no evidence that they are a significant factor in population control . A study , however , based on the stomach contents of large carnivorous fish that are potential predators of the starfish found no evidence of the starfish in the fish 's guts . These carnivorous fish were caught commercially on the coral reefs on the Gulf of Oman and examined at local fish markets . One problem with the concept of predators of large juvenile and adult starfish causing total mortality is that the starfish have good regenerative powers and they would n't keep still while being eaten . Also , they would need to be consumed completely or almost completely to die . 17 -- 60 % of starfish in various populations had missing or regenerating arms . Clearly the starfish experience various levels of sublethal predation . When the damage includes a major section of the disk together with arms , the number of arms regenerating on the disk may be less than the number lost . Another hypothesis is the `` aggregation hypothesis '' , whereby large aggregations of A. planci appear as apparent outbreaks because they have consumed all the adjacent coral . This seems to imply that there is apparently a dense population outbreak when there has already been a more diffuse population outbreak that has been dense enough to comprehensively prey on large areas of hard coral . Female crown - of - thorns starfish are very fecund . Based on the eggs in ovaries , 200 , 300 and 400 mm diameter females potentially spawn approximately 4 , 30 and 50 million eggs , respectively ( see also Gametes and embryos ) . Lucas adopted a different approach , focusing on the survival of the larvae arising from the eggs . The rationale for this approach was that small changes in the survival of larvae and developmental stages would result in very large changes in the adult population . Considering two hypothetical situations . Twenty million eggs , from a female spawning and having a survival rate of about 0.00000001 % throughout development would replace two adult starfish in a low - density population where the larvae recruit . If , however , the survival rate increases to 0.1 % ( one in a thousand ) throughout development from one spawning of 20 million eggs this would result in 20,000 adult starfish where the larvae have recruited . Since the larvae are the most abundant stages of development it is likely that changes in survival will be most importance during this phase of development . Temperature and salinity have little effect on the survival of crown - of - thorns larvae . However , abundance and species of the particular component of phytoplankton ( unicellular flagellates ) on which the larvae feed has a profound effect on survival and rate of growth . The abundance of phytoplankton cells is especially important . As autotrophs , phytoplankton abundance is strongly influenced by the concentration of inorganic nutrients , such as nitrogenous compounds . Birkeland had observed a correlation between the abundance of crown - of - thorns on reefs adjacent to land masses . These occurred on mainland islands as distinct from coral atolls about three years after heavy rainfall that followed a period of drought . He suggested that runoff from such heavy rainfall may stimulate phytoplankton blooms of sufficient size to produce enough food for the larvae of A. planci through input of nutrients . Combining Birkeland observations with the influence of inorganic nutrients on survival of the starfish larvae in experimental studies gave support for a mechanism for starfish outbreaks : increased terrestrial runoff → increased nutrients denser phytoplankton ↑ → better larval survival → increased starfish populations There have been further conformations of these connections , however research by Olson ( 1987 ) , Kaufmann ( 2002 ) , and Byrne ( 2016 ) suggests terrestrial runoff has little or no impact on larval survival . The conflicting data describing the negligible role of terrestrial agricultural runoff has been described as `` an inconvenient study '' . There is also a flow - on effect in that where there are large starfish populations producing large numbers of larvae , there is likely to be heavy recruitment on reefs downstream to which the larvae are carried and then settle . Population control ( edit ) Blue Acanthaster planci in Balicasag Island ( Philippines ) Population numbers for the crown - of - thorns have been increasing since the 1970s . However , historic records of distribution patterns and numbers are hard to come by , as SCUBA technology , necessary to conduct population censuses , had only been developed in the previous few decades . To prevent overpopulation of crown - of - thorns causing widespread destruction to coral reef habitats , humans have implemented a variety of control measures . Manual removals have been successful , but are relatively labour - intensive . Injecting sodium bisulphate into the starfish is the most efficient measure in practice . Sodium bisulphate is deadly to crown - of - thorns , but it does not harm the surrounding reef and oceanic ecosystems . To control areas of high infestations , teams of divers have had kill rates of up to 120 per hour per diver . The practice of dismembering them was shown to have a kill rate of 12 per hour per diver and the diver performing this test was spiked three times . Therefore , it is for this reason and not rumours that they might be able to regenerate that dismembering is not recommended . An even more labour - intensive route , but less risky to the diver , is to bury them under rocks or debris . This route is only suitable for areas with low infestation and if materials are available to perform the procedure without damaging corals . A 2015 study by James Cook University showed that common household vinegar is also effective , as the acidity causes the starfish to disintegrate within days . Vinegar is also harmless to the environment , and is not restricted by regulations regarding animal products such as bile . A new successful method of population control is by the injection of thiosulfate - citrate - bile salts - sucrose agar ( TCBS ) . Only one injection is needed , leading to the organism 's death in 24 hours from a contagious disease marked by `` discoloured and necrotic skin , ulcerations , loss of body turgor , accumulation of colourless mucus on many spines especially at their tip , and loss of spines . Blisters on the dorsal integument broke through the skin surface and resulted in large , open sores that exposed the internal organs . '' An autonomous starfish - killing robot called COTSBot has been developed and as of September 2015 was close to being ready for trials on the Great Barrier Reef . The COTSbot , which has a neural net - aided vision system , is designed to seek out crown - of - thorns starfish and give them a lethal injection of bile salts . After it eradicates the bulk of the starfish in a given area , human divers can move in and remove the survivors . Field trials of the robot have begun in Moreton Bay in Brisbane to refine its navigation system , according to Queensland University of Technology researcher Matthew Dunbabin . There are no crown - of - thorns starfish in Moreton Bay , but when the navigation has been refined , the robot will be used on the reef .

An animated feature is defined by the Academy as a film with a running time of more than 40 minutes in which characters ' performances are created using a frame - by - frame technique , a significant number of the major characters are animated , and animation figures in no less than 75 percent of the running time . The Academy Award for Best Animated Feature was first awarded in 2002 for films made in 2001 . The entire AMPAS membership has been eligible to choose the winner since the award 's inception . If there are sixteen or more films submitted for the category , the winner is voted from a shortlist of five films , which has happened eight times , otherwise there will only be three films on the shortlist . Additionally , eight eligible animated features must have been theatrically released in Los Angeles County within the calendar year for this category to be activated . Animated films can be nominated for other categories , but have rarely been so ; Beauty and the Beast ( 1991 ) was the first animated film ever nominated for Best Picture . Up ( 2009 ) and Toy Story 3 ( 2010 ) also received Best Picture nominations after the Academy expanded the number of nominees from five to ten . Waltz with Bashir ( 2008 ) is the only animated film ever nominated for Best Foreign Language Film ( though it did not receive a nomination for Best Animated Feature ) . The Nightmare Before Christmas ( 1993 ) and Kubo and the Two Strings ( 2016 ) are the only two animated films to ever be nominated for Best Visual Effects .

Instead , the Academy occasionally bestowed special Oscars for exceptional productions , usually for Walt Disney Pictures , such as for Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs in 1938 , and the Special Achievement Academy Award for the live action / animated hybrid Who Framed Roger Rabbit in 1989 and Toy Story in 1996 . In fact , prior to the creation of the award , only one animated film received a Best Picture nomination : 1991 's Beauty and the Beast , also by Walt Disney Pictures . By 2001 , the rise of sustained competitors to Disney in the feature animated film market , such as DreamWorks Animation ( ironically , founded by former Disney executive Jeffrey Katzenberg ) , created an increase of film releases of significant annual number enough for AMPAS to reconsider . The Academy Award for Best Animated Feature was first given out at the 74th Academy Awards , held on March 24 , 2002 . The Academy included a rule that stated that the award would not be presented in a year in which fewer than eight eligible films opened in theaters . People in the animation industry and fans expressed hope that the prestige from this award and the resulting boost to the box office would encourage the increased production of animated features . Some members and fans have criticized the award , however , saying it is only intended to prevent animated films from having a chance of winning Best Picture . DreamWorks had advertised heavily during the holiday 2001 season for Shrek , but was disappointed when the rumored Best Picture nomination did not materialize , though it was nominated for and ended up winning the inaugural Best Animated Feature award. . the Shrek franchise to date is most succsfull franchise with one win and three nomtied . The criticism of Best Animated Feature was particularly prominent at the 81st Academy Awards , in which WALL - E won the award but was not nominated for Best Picture , despite receiving widespread acclaim from critics and audiences and being generally considered one of the best films of 2008 . This led to controversy over whether the film was deliberately snubbed of the nomination by the Academy . Film critic Peter Travers commented that `` If there was ever a time where an animated feature deserved to be nominated for Best Picture , it 's WALL - E . '' However , official Academy Award regulations state that any movie nominated for this category can still be nominated for Best Picture . There have been complaints that the Best Animated Feature award is held in unfairly low regard by Academy members with many members refusing to vote for films they consider mere children 's fare beneath them , or letting their own children see the films and go with their opinions instead . The dominance of Disney and Pixar allegedly as a result of this bias is suggested to be injuring the credibility of the award . In 2009 , when the nominee slots for Best Picture were doubled to ten , Up was nominated for both Best Animated Feature and Best Picture at the 82nd Academy Awards , the first film to do so since the creation of the Animated Feature category . This feat was repeated the following year by Toy Story 3 . Since 2010 onward , with the increasing competitiveness of the Animated Feature category , Pixar ( a perennial nominee ) did not receive nominations for several recent films considering the studio has released films of more mixed critical reaction and box office earnings , while Pixar 's sister studio Disney Animation won their first three awards . In 2010 , the Academy enacted a new rule regarding the performance capture technique employed in films such as Disney 's A Christmas Carol from Robert Zemeckis and The Adventures of Tintin from Steven Spielberg , and how they might not be eligible in this category in the future . This rule was possibly made to prevent nominations of live - action films that rely heavily on motion capture , such as James Cameron 's Avatar . When the category was first instated , the nomination went to the person ( s ) most involved in creating the winning film . This could be the producer , the director , or both . For the 76th Academy Awards in 2004 , only the director ( s ) of the film received the nomination . For the 86th Academy Awards ten years later , this was amended to include one producer and up to two directors .

The cousins ' primary mode of transportation is an orange 1969 Dodge Charger that the boys affectionately refer to as the `` General Lee '' . Along the way , the family is tormented by corrupt Hazzard County Commissioner Jefferson Davis Hogg , widely known as `` Boss Hogg '' ( Burt Reynolds ) , and his willing but dimwitted henchman , Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane ( M.C. Gainey ) . After Rosco has the General Lee impounded after Bo and Luke 's attempt to run away from a daughter of one their many moonshine customers , Billy Prickett ( James Roday ) , a famous stock - car driver , enters Hazzard to participate in the rally . Meanwhile , Rosco plants a fake moonshine still ( `` ' cause he 's too dumb to find the real one '' ) in Uncle Jesse 's barn and seizes the Duke property in the interest of eminent domain for Boss Hogg , forcing the family to temporarily reside with neighbor and Uncle Jesse 's love - interest , Pauline ( Lynda Carter ) . Pauline informs the Dukes that Rosco seized another farm on charges , so Bo and Luke investigate a local construction site and find geologic core samples with the help of bait - shop owner Sheev ( Kevin Heffernan ) . Meanwhile , Coltrane makes arrangements to seize the General Lee as `` evidence '' from the local auto body shop run by the Dukes ' friend Cooter Davenport ( David Koechner ) , who instead turns the car into a hot rod and applies a new paint job and horn , in return for finally getting payment for all the work he has done ( `` ... ' cause that 's how this works ... '' ) for the boys in the past . Sheriff 's car at location in Thousand Oaks , California After retrieving the General Lee before Rosco can , the Dukes go to Atlanta to visit a local university geology lab , meeting with Katie - Lynn Johnson ( Nikki Griffin ) , a Hazzard county girl and the Dukes ' love interest , and her Australian roommate Annette ( Jacqui Maxwell ) . At the lab , they discover Boss Hogg 's intentions of turning the county into a strip coal mine . They are later arrested by Atlanta Police after running from campus police . Back in Hazzard , Daisy learns , with the help of Sheriff 's Deputy Enos Strate ( Michael Weston ) , that Billy Prickett has been hired by Boss Hogg to participate in the rally as a ringer . Boss Hogg then heads to Atlanta , where he informs the Duke boys , in lock - up , that they are too late to stop him and reveals that the vote on Hogg 's proposition is at the same time as the rally , explaining Billy Prickett 's involvement . During a transfer from detainment , Daisy helps the boys escape from the patrol car , and they speed home to try to inform the townsfolk , escaping Atlanta Police , and the Georgia State Patrol after Bo outmaneuvers the city cops . Upon returning home , the Dukes discover that Boss Hogg and Rosco had taken Uncle Jesse and Pauline hostage , an obvious trap for the boys , and that Billy is in on the scheme because he is ashamed of the town 's low status . The two race to the farmhouse to cause a distraction to the waiting Hazzard County sheriff 's deputies and Georgia state troopers , while Daisy and Cooter rescue Jesse and Pauline . Meanwhile , the college girls head to the rally with Sheev to inform the townsfolk about the vote on the strip - mining ordinance . Because of Sheev 's armadillo hat and lack of pants , no one listens , so Bo leaves for the rally while Luke and Jesse team up to foil the county and state police who are chasing Bo , interfering with the race . Upon crossing the finish line first , before Billy , the two continue racing back and forth all the way into town , leading the townsfolk to the courthouse just in time to vote against Boss Hogg 's proposed ordinance . At the courthouse , Daisy takes advantage of the governor of Georgia 's presence and TV cameras to convince him to pardoning the boys , so Uncle Jesse takes the opportunity to knock out Boss Hogg and gets a pardon for assaulting a county commissioner at the same time . The final scene shows a cook - out at the Dukes ' house where Pauline convinces Uncle Jesse , who could not be found because he was `` using the meat smoker '' , to get up and play the television series ' main theme . Bo and Luke are romantically involved with the girls in the General Lee when they are caught by Luke 's other love - interest Laurie Pullman ( Alice Greczyn ) from the introduction of the film , who proceeds to chase them with a shotgun as they drive away . During the credits , outtakes from the production of the film are shown .

According to review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes , 14 % of critics gave the film positive reviews , based on 168 reviews ; the website 's consensus called the film `` A dumb , goofy , and vacuous adaptation of a TV show where plot is simply an excuse to string together the car chases . '' The film received an average rating of 33 % on Metacritic based on 36 reviews , indicating `` Generally unfavorable reviews . '' Longtime fans of the original Dukes of Hazzard series were generally disappointed by the film . Awards ( edit ) At the 26th Golden Raspberry Awards , the film received seven nominations , but did not win any . Worst Picture - lost to Dirty Love Worst Director ( Jay Chandrasekhar ) - lost to John Mallory Asher for Dirty Love Worst Screenplay ( John O'Brien ) - lost to Jenny McCarthy for Dirty Love Worst Supporting Actor ( Burt Reynolds ) - lost to Hayden Christensen in Star Wars : Episode III -- Revenge of the Sith Worst Supporting Actress ( Jessica Simpson ) - lost to Paris Hilton in House of Wax Worst Screen Couple ( Jessica Simpson and her Daisy Dukes ) - lost to Nicole Kidman and Will Ferrell in Bewitched Worst Remake or Sequel - lost to Son of the Mask At the People 's Choice Awards , Simpson won the `` Favorite Song from a Movie '' award for her cover of Nancy Sinatra 's `` These Boots Are Made For Walkin ' '' . The film was nominated for two MTV Movie Awards , including Best On - Screen Team ( Johnny Knoxville , Seann William Scott , and Jessica Simpson ) , and Sexiest Performance ( Jessica Simpson ) . Simpson won the Choice Breakout Female award for her role in the film at the Teen Choice Awards . Controversy ( edit ) Before the release of this film , Warner Bros. reportedly paid $17.5 million to the producer of Moonrunners , the movie that inspired the television series . This was soon followed by a claim from screenwriter Gy Waldron . The Hollywood Reporter reported that James Best , who portrayed Rosco P. Coltrane in the original series , filed suit in late July 2011 over royalties he was contracted to receive over spinoffs that `` used his identity '' . Ben Jones , who played Cooter Davenport in the original series , criticized the film for its emphasis on sexual content , suggesting that the original series was more family - oriented and not as sexualized . He called for fans of the television series to boycott the film `` unless they clean it up before the August 5th release date . '' Some have countered that the original series also contained sexual themes , primarily Catherine Bach 's ( Daisy Duke ) much - displayed `` short shorts '' ( which have become so ubiquitous in American culture that skimpy blue jean cutoff shorts are now often simply called `` Daisy Dukes '' ) . In a film review , a New York Daily News entertainment columnist said the movie 's sex humor is `` cruder '' than the TV series , but that it is `` nearly identical to the TV series in ... its ogling of the posterior of cousin Daisy Duke . '' Although initially he commented that he enjoyed the new style of relationship between the movie versions of Bo and Luke , John Schneider , who played Bo Duke in the original series , was later asked if he saw the film and said : `` My gosh ... it was terrible ! It was n't Dukes . It was true to whatever it was ; I just do n't know what that was ! '' Soundtrack ( edit ) Main article : These Boots Are Made for Walkin ' § Jessica Simpson version Jessica Simpson recorded her own version of `` These Boots Are Made for Walkin ' '' ( and added her own lyrics ) for the soundtrack to the film The Dukes of Hazzard ( 2005 ) . Performed from the point of view of her character in the movie , Simpson 's cover was co-produced by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis , and was released as the soundtrack 's first single in 2005 . It became Simpson 's fifth top - 20 single in the United States and its music video drew some controversy because of its sexual imagery . Both the original Ram Jam version of `` Black Betty '' , and the Sylvia Massy produced remake by Spiderbait appear in the film . `` If You Want Blood ( You 've Got It ) '' and `` Shoot to Thrill '' are played by AC / DC . Unrated cut ( edit ) In 2008 , an unrated cut restored changes made to get a PG - 13 rating from the Motion Picture Association of America . The unrated cut was released on DVD , and included rated and unrated bonus features , including unrated deleted scenes and blooper scenes . This edition was not rated by the MPAA , but would have unquestionably been rated R for nudity , language , and violent driving stunts . Prequel ( edit ) A prequel to the film , titled The Dukes of Hazzard : The Beginning , was released to television on March 4 , 2007 , and released to DVD on March 13 , 2007 .

Prime Minister of Australia - Wikipedia Prime Minister of Australia This is the latest accepted revision , reviewed on 26 April 2018 .

The individual who holds the office is the most senior Minister of the Crown , the leader of the Cabinet and the chairperson of the National Security Committee . The Prime Minister also has the responsibility of administering the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet . The office is not mentioned in the Constitution of Australia and exists only through longstanding political convention and tradition . The individual who holds the office is commissioned by the Governor - General of Australia and at the Governor - General 's pleasure subject to the Constitution of Australia . Almost always and according to convention , the Prime Minister is the leader of the majority party or largest party in a coalition of parties in the House of Representatives and continues to be so as long as they command the confidence of this House . Some commentators argue that the Governor General may also dismiss a Prime Minister who is unable to pass the government 's supply bill through both houses of parliament , including the Australian Senate , where the government does n't normally command the majority , as happened in the 1975 constitutional crisis . Other commentators argue that the Governor General acted improperly in 1975 as Whitlam still retained the confidence of the House of Representatives , and there are no generally accepted conventions to guide the use of the Governor General 's reserve powers in this circumstance. . However , there is no constitutional requirement that the Prime Minister sit in the House of Representatives , or even be a member of the federal parliament ( subject to a constitutionally prescribed limit of three months ) , though by convention this is always the case . The only case where a member of the Senate was appointed Prime Minister was John Gorton , who subsequently resigned his Senate position and was elected as a member of the House of Representatives ( Senator George Pearce was acting Prime Minister for seven months in 1916 while Billy Hughes was overseas ; and Senator Mathias Cormann acted for a few days in February 2018 while Malcolm Turnbull was overseas ) . Malcolm Turnbull has held the office of Prime Minister since 15 September 2015 . He received his commission after replacing Tony Abbott as the leader of the Liberal Party , the dominant party in the Coalition government , following the outcome of the September 2015 Liberal leadership ballot .

The Prime Minister of Australia is appointed by the Governor - General of Australia under Section 64 of the Australian Constitution , which empowers the Governor - General , as the official representative of the monarch , to appoint government ministers of state and requires them to be members of the House of Representatives or the Senate , or become members within three months of the appointment . The Prime Minister and Treasurer are traditionally members of the House , but the Constitution does not have such a requirement . Before being sworn in as a Minister of the Crown , a person must first be sworn in as a member of the Federal Executive Council if they are not already a member . Membership of the Federal Executive Council entitles the member to the style of The Honourable ( usually abbreviated to The Hon ) for life , barring exceptional circumstances . The senior members of the Executive Council constitute the Cabinet of Australia . The Prime Minister is , like other ministers , normally sworn in by the Governor - General and then presented with the commission ( Letters patent ) of office . When defeated in an election , or on resigning , the Prime Minister is said to `` hand in the commission '' and actually does so by returning it to the Governor - General . In the event of a Prime Minister dying in office , or becoming incapacitated , or for other reasons , the Governor - General can terminate the commission . Ministers hold office `` during the pleasure of the Governor - General '' ( s . 64 of the Constitution of Australia ) , so theoretically , the Governor - General can dismiss a minister at any time , by notifying them in writing of the termination of their commission ; however , their power to do so except on the advice of the Prime Minister is heavily circumscribed by convention . Despite the importance of the office of Prime Minister , the Constitution does not mention the office by name . The conventions of the Westminster system were thought to be sufficiently entrenched in Australia by the authors of the Constitution that it was deemed unnecessary to detail them . The formal title of the portfolio has always been simply `` Prime Minister '' , except for the period of the Fourth Deakin Ministry ( June 1909 to April 1910 ) , when it was known as `` Prime Minister ( without portfolio ) '' . If a government can not get its appropriation ( budget ) legislation passed by the House of Representatives , or the House passes a vote of `` no confidence '' in the government , the Prime Minister is bound by convention to immediately advise the Governor - General to dissolve the House of Representatives and hold a fresh election . Following a resignation in other circumstances , or the death of a Prime Minister , the governor - general will generally appoint as Prime Minister the person elected as leader by the governing party or , in the case of a coalition , the senior party in the coalition . There have been four notable exceptions to this : When Joseph Lyons , Prime Minister and leader of the United Australia Party ( UAP ) , died suddenly in April 1939 , the governor - general , Lord Gowrie , called on Sir Earle Page to become caretaker Prime Minister . Page was the leader of the smaller party in the governing coalition , the Country Party . He held the office for three weeks until the UAP elected a new leader , Robert Menzies . In August 1941 Menzies resigned as Prime Minister . The UAP was so bereft of leadership at this time that the Country Party leader Arthur Fadden was invited to become Prime Minister , although the Country Party was the smaller of the two coalition parties . The government depended on support from two independents , who two months later voted against Fadden 's budget and brought the government down , paving the way for John Curtin to be appointed as Labor Prime Minister . In July 1945 John Curtin died suddenly . His deputy , Frank Forde , was sworn in the next day as Prime Minister , although the Labor Party had not had an opportunity to meet and elect a new leader . Forde served for eight days until Ben Chifley was elected leader . Chifley was then sworn in , replacing Forde , who became Australia 's shortest - serving Prime Minister . Harold Holt disappeared while swimming on 17 December 1967 and was declared presumed dead on 19 December . The governor - general , Lord Casey , commissioned the Leader of the Country Party , John McEwen , to form a government until the Liberal Party elected a new leader . McEwen was Prime Minister for 23 days , until the election of ( then Senator ) John Gorton . Excluding the brief transition periods during changes of government or leadership elections , there have only been a handful of cases where someone other than the leader of the majority party in the House of Representatives was Prime Minister : Federation occurred on 1 January 1901 , but elections for the first parliament were not scheduled until late March . In the interim , an unelected caretaker government was necessary . In what is now known as the Hopetoun Blunder , the governor - general , Lord Hopetoun , invited Sir William Lyne , the premier of the most populous state , New South Wales , to form a government . Lyne was unable to do so and returned his commission in favour of Edmund Barton , who became the first Prime Minister and led the inaugural government into and beyond the election . During the second parliament , three parties ( Free Trade , Protectionist and Labor ) had roughly equal representation in the House of Representatives . The leaders of the three parties , Alfred Deakin , George Reid and Chris Watson each served as Prime Minister before losing a vote of confidence . As a result of the Labor Party 's split over conscription , Billy Hughes and his supporters were expelled from the Labor Party in November 1916 . He subsequently continued on as prime minister at the head of the new National Labor Party , which had only 14 members out of a total of 75 in the House of Representatives . The Commonwealth Liberal Party -- despite still forming the Official Opposition -- provided confidence and supply until February 1917 , when the two parties agree to merge and form the Nationalist Party . During the 1975 constitutional crisis , on 11 November 1975 , the governor - general , Sir John Kerr , dismissed the Labor Party 's Gough Whitlam as Prime Minister . Despite Labor holding a majority in the House of Representatives , Kerr appointed the Leader of the Opposition , Liberal leader Malcolm Fraser as caretaker Prime Minister , conditional on the passage of the Whitlam government 's Supply bills through the Senate and the calling of an election for both houses of parliament . Fraser accepted these terms and immediately advised a double dissolution . An election was called for 13 December , which the Liberal Party won in its own right ( although the Liberals governed in a coalition with the Country Party ) . Powers and role ( edit ) The first Prime Minister of Australia , Edmund Barton ( sitting second from left ) , with his Cabinet , 1901 . Most of the Prime Minister 's powers derive from being head of Government . In practice , the Federal Executive Council will act to ratify all decisions made by the cabinet and decisions of the cabinet will always require the support of the Prime Minister . The powers of the governor - general to grant Royal Assent to legislation , to dissolve and prorogue parliament , to call elections and to make appointments are exercised on the advice of the Prime Minister . The Prime Minister is also the responsible minister for the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet , which is tasked with supporting the policy agendas of the Prime Minister and Cabinet through policy advice and the coordination of the implementation of key government programs , to manage Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander policy and programs and to promote reconciliation , to provide leadership for the Australian Public Service alongside the Australian Public Service Commission , to oversee the honours and symbols of the Commonwealth , to provide support to ceremonies and official visits , to set whole of government service delivery policy , and to coordinate national security , cyber , counterterrorism , regulatory reform , cities , population , data , and women 's policy . The formal power to appoint the Governor - General lies with the Queen of Australia , but this appointment is done on the formal advice of the Prime Minister . By convention , this advice is provided by the Prime Minister alone , and thus the appointment is effectively the Prime Minister 's personal choice . The Prime Minister may also advise the monarch to dismiss the Governor - General , though it remains unclear how quickly the monarch would act on such advice in a constitutional crisis . This uncertainty , and the possibility of a `` race '' between the Governor - General and Prime Minister to sack the other , was a key question in the 1975 constitutional crisis . The power of the Prime Minister is subject to a number of limitations . Prime Ministers removed as leader of their party , or whose government loses a vote of no - confidence in the House of Representatives , are expected to advise an election of the lower house or resign the office . If they fail to do this they will be dismissed by the Governor - General . The Prime Minister 's party will normally have a majority in the House of Representatives and party discipline is exceptionally strong in Australian politics , so passage of the government 's legislation through the House of Representatives is mostly a formality . Attaining the support of the Senate can be more difficult as government usually lacks an absolute majority because the Senate 's representation is based on overall proportion of votes and often includes minor parties . Privileges of office ( edit ) Salary ( edit ) Prime Ministerial salary history Effective date Salary 2 June 1999 $289,270 6 September 2006 $309,270 1 July 2007 $330,356 1 October 2009 $340,704 1 August 2010 $354,671 1 July 2011 $366,366 1 December 2011 $440,000 15 March 2012 $481,000 1 July 2012 $495,430 1 July 2013 $507,338 1 January 2016 $517,504 1 July 2017 $527,852 On 1 July 2017 , the Australian Government 's Remuneration Tribunal adjusted the Prime Ministerial salary , raising it to its current amount of $527,852 . Allowances ( edit ) Prime Ministers Curtin , Fadden , Hughes , Menzies and Governor - General The Duke of Gloucester 2nd from left , in 1945 . Whilst in office , the Prime Minister has two official residences . The primary official residence is The Lodge in Canberra . Most Prime Ministers have chosen The Lodge as their primary residence because of its security facilities and close proximity to Parliament House . There have been some exceptions , however . James Scullin preferred to live at the Hotel Canberra ( now the Hyatt Hotel ) and Ben Chifley lived in the Hotel Kurrajong . More recently , John Howard used the Sydney Prime Ministerial residence , Kirribilli House , as his primary accommodation . On her appointment on 24 June 2010 , Julia Gillard said she would not be living in The Lodge until such time as she was returned to office by popular vote at the next general election . ( She became Prime Minister mid-term after replacing the incumbent , Kevin Rudd , who resigned in the face of an unwinnable party - room ballot . ) During his first term , Rudd had a staff at The Lodge consisting of a senior chef and an assistant chef , a child carer , one senior house attendant , and two junior house attendants . At Kirribilli House in Sydney , there is one full - time chef and one full - time house attendant . The official residences are fully staffed and catered for both the Prime Minister and their family . In addition , both have extensive security facilities . These residences are regularly used for official entertaining , such as receptions for Australian of the Year finalists . The Prime Minister receives a number of transport amenities for official business . The Royal Australian Air Force 's No. 34 Squadron transports the Prime Minister within Australia and overseas by specially converted Boeing Business Jets and smaller Challenger aircraft . The aircraft contain secure communications equipment as well as an office , conference room and sleeping compartments . The call - sign for the aircraft is `` Envoy '' . For ground travel , the Prime Minister is transported in an armoured BMW 7 Series model . It is referred to as `` C - 1 '' , or Commonwealth One , because of its licence plate . It is escorted by police vehicles from state and federal authorities . After office ( edit ) Prime Ministers are usually granted certain privileges after leaving office , such as office accommodation , staff assistance , and a Life Gold Pass , which entitles the holder to travel within Australia for `` non-commercial '' purposes at government expense . Only one Prime Minister who had left the Federal Parliament ever returned . Stanley Bruce was defeated in his own seat in 1929 while Prime Minister , but was re-elected to parliament in 1931 . Other Prime Ministers were elected to parliaments other than the Australian federal parliament : Sir George Reid was elected to the UK House of Commons ( after his term as High Commissioner to the UK ) ; and Frank Forde was re-elected to the Queensland Parliament ( after his term as High Commissioner to Canada , and a failed attempt to re-enter the Federal Parliament ) . Privileges of office The Lodge Kirribilli House Prime Ministerial car Official aircraft Acting and interim Prime Ministers ( edit ) From time to time Prime Ministers are required to leave the country on government business and a deputy acts in their place during that time . In the days before jet aircraft , such absences could be for extended periods . For example , William Watt was acting prime Minister for 16 months , from April 1918 until August 1919 , when Prime Minister Billy Hughes was away at the Paris Peace Conference , and Senator George Pearce was acting Prime Minister for more than seven months in 1916 . An acting Prime Minister is also appointed when the prime minister takes leave . The Deputy Prime Minister most commonly becomes acting Prime Minister in those circumstances . Three Prime Ministers have died in office -- Joseph Lyons ( 1939 ) , John Curtin ( 1945 ) and Harold Holt ( 1967 ) -- and Robert Menzies resigned as Prime Minister in 1941 . In each of these cases the Deputy Prime Minister ( an unofficial office at the time ) became an interim Prime Minister , pending an election of a new leader of the government party . In none of these cases was the interim Prime Minister successful at the subsequent election . Former Prime Ministers ( edit ) As of April 2018 , there are six living former Australian Prime Ministers . Bob Hawke In office : 1983 -- 1991 Age : 88 Paul Keating In office : 1991 -- 1996 Age : 74 John Howard In office : 1996 -- 2007 Age : 78 Kevin Rudd In office : 2007 -- 2010 ; 13 Age : 60 Julia Gillard In office : 2010 -- 2013 Age : 56 Tony Abbott , In office : 2013 -- 2015 Age : 60 The greatest number of living former Prime Ministers at any one time was eight . This has occurred twice : Between 7 October 1941 ( when John Curtin succeeded Arthur Fadden ) and 18 November 1941 ( when Chris Watson died ) , the eight living former Prime Ministers were Bruce , Cook , Fadden , Hughes , Menzies , Page , Scullin and Watson . Between 13 July 1945 ( when Ben Chifley succeeded Frank Forde ) and 30 July 1947 ( when Sir Joseph Cook died ) , the eight living former Prime Ministers were Bruce , Cook , Fadden , Forde , Hughes , Menzies , Page and Scullin . Of the other Prime Ministers , Ben Chifley died only one year and six months after leaving the Prime Ministership and Alfred Deakin lived another nine years and five months . All the others who have left office have lived at least another 10 years . Nine of them ( Bruce , Cook , Fadden , Forde , Fraser , Gorton , Hughes , Watson , and Whitlam ) lived more than 25 years after leaving the office , and all but one of them have survived longer than 30 years ( Hughes lived for 29 years and 8 months following service ) . Bob Hawke , who is , as of 2017 , still alive , has also lived 25 years beyond the end of his prime ministership . The longest - surviving was Gough Whitlam , who lived 38 years and 11 months after office , surpassing Stanley Bruce 's previous record of 37 years and 10 months after leaving the office . Ages ( edit ) Four Australian prime ministers -- Forde , Curtin , Menzies , and Hughes -- at a meeting of the Advisory War Council in 1940 . The three youngest people when they first became Prime Minister were : Chris Watson -- 37 Stanley Bruce -- 39 Robert Menzies -- 44 The three oldest people when they first became Prime Minister were : John McEwen -- 67 William McMahon -- 63 Malcolm Turnbull -- 60 The three youngest people to last leave the office of Prime Minister were : Chris Watson -- 37 Arthur Fadden -- 46 years 5 months 22 days Stanley Bruce -- 46 years 6 months 7 days The three oldest people to last leave the office of Prime Minister were : Robert Menzies -- 71 John Howard -- 68 John McEwen -- 67 List and timeline ( edit ) Main article : List of Prime Ministers of Australia The longest - serving Prime Minister was Sir Robert Menzies , who served in office twice : from 26 April 1939 to 28 August 1941 , and again from 19 December 1949 to 26 January 1966 . In total Robert Menzies spent 18 years , 5 months and 12 days in office . He served under the United Australia Party and the Liberal Party respectively .

Chartered in 1964 , the museum has amassed one of the world 's most extensive musical collections . Contents ( hide ) 1 History of the museum 2 Current museum 3 The Country Music Hall of Fame 4 The Museum collection 5 Architecture and design 6 Timeline 7 Senior leadership 8 See also 9 Further reading 10 References 11 External links History of the museum ( edit ) The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum is one of the world 's largest and most active popular music research centers and the world 's largest repository of country music artifacts . Early in the 1960s , as the Country Music Association 's campaign to publicize country music was accelerating , CMA leaders determined that a new organization was needed to operate a country music museum and to carry out research and education activities beyond CMA 's scope as a trade organization . Toward this end , the nonprofit Country Music Foundation ( CMF ) was chartered by the state of Tennessee in 1964 to collect , preserve , and publicize information and artifacts relating to the history of country music . Through CMF , industry leaders raised money to build the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum , which opened on April 1 , 1967 . Located at the head of Music Row , the museum was erected on the site of a small Nashville city park . At this point , artifacts began to be displayed and a small library was begun in a loft above one of the museum 's galleries . Early in the 1970s the basement of the museum building was partially complete , and library expansion began , embracing not only recordings but also books and periodicals , sheet music and songbooks , photographs , business documents , and other materials . At the outset , CMA staff had run the museum , but by 1972 the museum ( already governed by its own independent board of directors ) acquired its own small staff , which has steadily increased to over 150 full - time professionals . Building expansion took place in 1974 , 1977 , and 1984 to store and display the museum 's growing collection of costumes , films , historic cars , musical instruments , and other artifacts . An education department was created to conduct ongoing programs with Middle Tennessee schools , an oral history program was begun , and a publications department was launched to handle books , as well as the Journal of Country Music . Current museum ( edit ) To become more accessible , in May 2001 the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum moved to a new , 130,000 - square - foot ( 12,000 m ) facility in the heart of downtown Nashville 's arts and entertainment district . In 2014 , the museum unveiled a $100 million expansion , doubling its size to 350,000 square feet of galleries , archival storage , education classrooms , retail stores , and special event space . In the museum 's core exhibition , Sing Me Back Home : A Journey Through Country Music , visitors are immersed in the history and sounds of country music , its origins and traditions , and the stories and voices of many of its architects . The story is revealed through artifacts , photographs , and text panels , recorded sound , vintage video , and interactive touchscreens . Sing Me Back Home is enhanced by numerous , rotating limited - engagement exhibits . The new ACM Gallery and the Dinah and Fred Gretsch Family Gallery offer visitors a hands - on immersion into today 's country music with artifacts from today 's country stars and a series of technology - enhanced activities . In addition to the galleries , the museum has the 776 - seat CMA Theater , the Taylor Swift Education Center , and multi-purpose event rental spaces . Other historic properties of the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum include the letterpress operation Hatch Show Print ( located inside the museum ) and Historic RCA Studio B ( located on Music Row ) , Nashville 's oldest surviving recording studio , where recordings by Elvis Presley , Dolly Parton , Waylon Jennings , and many others were made . The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum has developed multiple platforms to make its collection accessible to a wider audience . From weekly instrument demonstrations to its flagship songwriting program for schools , Words & Music , the museum offers an aggressive schedule of educational programs . The museum also operates CMF Records , a Grammy - winning re-issue label ( The Complete Hank Williams and Night Train to Nashville : Music City Rhythm & Blues , 1945 - 1970 ) ; and CMF Press , a book publishing arm that releases exhibit - related books in cooperation with Vanderbilt University Press and other major trade publishing houses . The Country Music Hall of Fame ( edit ) Membership in the Country Music Hall of Fame , the highest honor a country music professional can receive , is extended to performers , songwriters , broadcasters , musicians , and executives in recognition of their contributions to the development of country music . The Country Music Hall of Fame honor was created in 1961 by the Country Music Association ( CMA ) ; the first inductees were Hank Williams , Jimmie Rodgers , and Fred Rose . Roy Acuff , the first living artist to join the Hall of Fame , was elected in 1962 . The most recent inductees ( class of 2017 ) are Jerry Reed , Don Schlitz and Alan Jackson . Over the Hall of Fame 's history , the number of new members inducted each year has varied from one to twelve ( no nominee was inducted in 1963 , no candidate having received sufficient votes ) . The election procedure is as follows : A small CMA nominating committee drafts slates of candidates from each category ; categories have been defined variously over the years . Award recipients are determined through a two - stage balloting process ; the first round of voting narrows each category to five candidates ; the second round selects winners . The large select committee of electors that votes on Hall of Fame membership is composed of CMA members who have participated in the country music industry for at least ten years . New Hall of Fame members receive special recognition in ceremonies at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum . Bas - relief portraits cast in bronze honoring each Hall of Fame member were originally displayed at the Tennessee State Museum in downtown Nashville until the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum opened its own building in April 1967 ; in this barn - roofed facility at the head of Music Row , the bronze plaques comprised a special exhibit . Today the plaques are displayed in a seventy - foot - high rotunda at the museum 's enlarged downtown Nashville facility . The museum collection ( edit ) The museum 's archival and library storage , allows for the cultivation of the museum 's collection and includes more than 2.5 million artifacts . Nearly 200,000 sound recordings , including an estimated 98 % of all pre-World War II country recordings released commercially Approximately 500,000 photographs More than 30,000 moving images on film , video and digital formats , including Glen Campbell narrating the history of country music ; rare documentary footage of a father and son buck - dancing at the 1932 Old - time Fiddlers ' Convention in Star , North Carolina ; and archival footage featuring Hall of Fame members the Jordanaires , the Louvin Brothers , Patsy Montana , Webb Pierce , Marty Robbins , Jimmie Rodgers , and Carl Smith . Hundreds of historic musical instruments , featuring Mother Maybelle Carter 's Gibson L - 5 , Earl Scruggs 's banjo , Bob Wills 's fiddle , and Bill Monroe 's mandolin . Thousands of items of clothing worn by country artists , including Hank Snow 's `` Golden Rocket '' Nudie suit , Jim Reeves 's tuxedo jacket , Gram Parsons 's Nudie suit , Patsy Cline 's cocktail dress , Hank Williams 's Nudie suit , Johnny Cash 's black suit from The Johnny Cash Show , and the dress Carrie Underwood wore when she won American Idol . Oral histories , scrapbooks , correspondence , fan club newsletters , sheet music , periodicals and books . Iconic Vehicles : Elvis Presley 's 1960 `` Solid Gold '' Cadillac limousine , Webb Pierce 's 1962 Pontiac Bonneville convertible , and Jerry Reed 's 1980 Pontiac Trans Am from Smokey and the Bandit II . Architecture and design ( edit ) When viewed from the air , the building forms a massive bass clef . The point on the sweeping arch of the building suggests the tailfin of a 1959 Cadillac sedan . The building 's front windows resemble piano keys . The tower on top of the Rotunda that extends down the Hall of Fame is a replica of the distinctive diamond - shaped WSM radio tower , which was originally built in 1932 just south of Nashville and is still in operation . The Rotunda itself is replete with symbolic architectural elements . For example , the exterior of this cylindrical structure can be viewed variously as a drum kit , a rural water tower , or grain silo . The four disc tiers of the Rotunda 's roof evoke the evolution of recording technology -- the 78 , the vinyl LP , the 45 , and the CD . Stone bars on the Rotunda 's outside wall symbolize the notes of the Carter Family 's classic song `` Will the Circle Be Unbroken , '' while the title of the song rings the interior of the structure . The Hall of Fame member 's plaques housed within the Rotunda are reminiscent of notes on a musical staff . Solid , earthy materials native to the Mid-South -- wood , concrete , steel , and stone -- were used in the building 's construction as a reminder of the music 's strong roots in the lives of working Americans . Georgia yellow pine adorns the floors of the Conservatory and is also found in the Hall of Fame Rotunda the Ford Theater . Crab Orchard Stone from the East Tennessee mountains lend a homey , rustic touch to the Conservatory 's `` front porch '' atmosphere and is also found on the Rotunda 's walls . The large steel beams supporting the Conservatory 's glass ceiling and walls conjure up images of rural railroad bridges . In another transportation metaphor , the cascading water along the Grand Staircase calls to mind the mighty rivers that have inspired so much of our nation 's music and have physically connected musicians in various regions of the nations . Musical symbolism continues within the museum galleries . Hardwood floors , curtain - like exhibit - case fronts , and low hanging lights suspended by cables create the backstage atmosphere of the Third Floor . Similarly , modular exhibit stations and vinyl floors evoke a recording studio environment on the Second Floor .

Over time , Jimmy begins to take more responsibility for the direction of his life . When he exhibits an improved attitude and performance at work , his supervisor grants him the extra shifts he requested . Stephanie receives a notice evicting her and the family as she can not pay rent . Despite Stephanie 's best attempts to keep the eviction notice a secret , Greg finds out about it .

Alex is impressed by Jimmy 's actions ; they have sex in the factory . Wink arranges for Jimmy to meet with producers at a recording studio , but Jimmy finds Wink and Alex engaging in intercourse . Enraged , Jimmy attacks Wink as Alex tries to break up their altercation . In retaliation , Wink and the Leaders of the Free World assault Jimmy outside his mother 's trailer . The leader of the gang , Papa Doc , holds Jimmy at gunpoint , threatening to kill him before being dissuaded by Wink . Jimmy 's best friend and battle host , Future , pushes him to get revenge by competing against the Leaders of the Free World at the next rap battle . However , Jimmy 's late - night shift conflicts with the timing of the next battle tournament . A goodbye visit from Alex , who is moving to New York , changes his mind about competing , and Paul agrees to cover his shift at work as a favor while Jimmy goes to the battle . In all rounds of the rap battle , Jimmy has to compete against one member of `` the Leaders . '' After winning the first two rounds , he has to challenge Papa Doc . He wins by exposing his opponent 's weaknesses as well as his own . With nothing to say in rebuttal , Papa Doc hands the microphone back to Future , embarrassed .

He was happy with Rabbit 's `` tender side '' presented through his relationship with the `` adorable '' Greenfield as his sister , but felt that Basinger was `` really miscast '' . Roeper said : `` 8 Mile probably wo n't win converts to rap , but it should thrill Eminem fans . '' Peter Travers gave the film 3.5 out of 4 stars . He said that 8 Mile `` is a real movie , not a fast - buck package to exploit the fan base of a rap nonentity '' that `` qualifies as a cinematic event by tapping into the roots of Eminem and the fury and feeling that inform his rap .

Synopsis of episodes ( edit ) Episode 1 The show was first aired on 13 Jan 2018 and Priyanka Chopra appeared as the special guest to motivate the contestants . Ace director and producer Karan Johar along with Rohit Shetty who is known for directing blockbuster movies started the show with a bang . The hosts of the show were two popular faces of the entertainment industry Karan Wahi and Rithvik Dhanjani . Priyanka enters the stage citing a short poem ( Shayari ) Urdu Poetry -- ' ' Jo desh ka guroor ban jaye , andhere mein noor ban jaye , jiski kasmein khakar mar mite janta , wohi hota hai ek asli superstar . ' ' It can be translated as - ' ' Anyone who aspires to be a superstar becomes a pride of the nation and a shining light in the darkness . S / he reaches a stage of respect when the common man starts worshipping him / her . ' ' And then she performed a sizzling number ' ' Desi Girl ' ' from her super hit movie Dostana . She lovingly tells that Karan Johar 's Dharma ( religion ) and Karma ( work ) , both are films , and Rohit Shetty 's name has ' ' hit ' ' hidden in it . Entry of Johar too was magical when he states in a filmy style that ' ' Supertars are not born , they are created by the KJo Magic ' ' and he dances to the tunes of ' ' Dil Chori Saada Ho Gaya . ' ' Shetty enters with a bang on a prototype of a car and shouts ' ' Lights , camera , action ' ' and both of them state that history will be created with this show . They also state that from Monday , the 20 contestants will enter the ' ' Superstars Academy ' ' where they will receive training in voice modulation , acting , choreography , dancing and various other aspects of a film which will make them a complete superstar . They will also have to face challenges every day , and between Mondays to Fridays , they will be in the academy preparing themselves for the gala performances to be presented on Saturdays and Sundays . Wahi and Dhanjani added to the fun quotient of the show and introduced themselves as BKBs ( Bollywood ke Bhawre - Bees of Bollywood ) . The theme of this episode is ' ' Picture Abhi Baaki Hai ' ' ( The movie is still remaining ) . The acts will try to explore the further possibilities of the plots of some super hit movies . The first performance was presented by Ansh Bagri and Kanikka Kapur and they explored the life after the marriage of Badri and Vaidehi in the movie Badrinath Ki Dulhania . This comedy act was appreciated by Johar and he stated that his performance has the mixture of many heroes whom he has been idolizing . He wanted Bagri to stop imitating and urged him to come up with his own style . The dance moves were very romantic and Chopra stated that she will root for him . Johar stated that he liked the confidence of Kapur and her smiling face . Shetty wanted to wait for Kapur to perform as a full - fledged actress in the forthcoming days . Bagri told Chopra that he had performed in the chorus along with other dancers in the song ' ' Desi Girl ' ' and requested her to dance with him . The next performance was by Natasha Bharadwaj and Shariq Nanda and they explored the life after the marriage for Suri ji and Tani ji in the Sharukh Khan Blockbuster movie Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi . The melodramatic performance of the act was appreciated by Shetty and Johar . The honesty and sincerity of both the actors was evident and Johar wished Nanda luck that one day his name will appear in the initial credits of a blockbuster film . Natasha 's mother who was present in the audience broke down with pride after watching her daughter perform . Chopra complimented them stating that this act was her favorite performance of the evening . The third performance of the evening was of Karan Taluja and Jash Bahl and they based their act on the patriotic film Border . The emotional performance of Bahl when he died at the end of the act , was immensely appreciated by Johar . The judges mentioned that they would clap for Bahl when he receives his first filmfare award . Chopra loved the fact that the audience gave this act a standing ovation . The fourth performance of the evening was given by Harshvardhan Ahlawat and Sahiba Bhasin . Their act was based on the after story of the blockbuster film of Sanjay Leela Bhansali Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam . They aerial dance performance was appreciated by Chopra . The comedy entertained the audience and Johar , Shetty and Chopra gave acting tips to the actors . The judges and hosts played dumb charades with some popular songs like ' ' Sarkai Leyo khatiya ' ' and entertained the audience . The entire episode had the introductions of all the performers which were presented as audio visual clips in the background . Episode 2 The second episode of this show was aired on 14 Jan 2018 ( Sunday ) and the remaining pairs performed today on the same theme as of episode 1 . The first performance of this evening was presented by Pranati Rai Prakash and Karan Sharma . Their act was based on Aditya Chopra 's blockbuster film Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge . The act showed the married life of Raj ( played by Shahrukh Khan ) and Simran ( played by Kajol ) . This romantic act was filled with the memoirs of the original film and the sudden tragic end of the act left the audience dumbfounded . Prakash 's confidence was appreciated by Johar and Sharma 's screen presence was appreciated by Chopra . Since Sharma did not tell his parents about his dreams of becoming an actor , the judges insisted him to make a phone call to his mom immediately . Chopra insisted that the clipping of Johar 's performance as the character of Raj 's friend in DDLJ should be shown and after that the judges entertained the audience by enacting that scene on stage . The second act based on the movie Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani was performed by Aashish Mehrotra and Heli Vyas . The sweet romantic act of the honeymoon of Bunny ( played by Ranbir Kapoor ) and Naina ( played by Deepika Padukone ) took a thriller turn at the end and the audience loved the act . Mehrotra talked about his personal experience of casting couch in the industry and Shetty condemned it . The judges gave acting tips to the actors . Singham Returns inspired the plot for the fourth performance and Ahmad Masih Vali and Lekha Prajapati played the roles of a cop and his demanding wife . This comedy act was loved by Shetty . Vali was completely smitten by the presence of Chopra . She advised the actors to take the academy seriously and make the most of it . Naina Singh from Moradabad made a great entry along with Shruti Sharma to present the sequel of Bhansali 's blockbuster movie Devdas which had done a business of close to 1000 million rupees . The comic punches made even the judges smile . The fifth act for the evening was quite a success due to the sizzling performance of both the talented actresses . Aman Gandotra played the role Rehan ( Played by Aamir Khan ) and Angela Krislinzki played the role of Zooni ( Played by Kajol ) in the remake of the 1.05 billion rupees grossing movie Fanaa . The unusual ending left the audience mesmerized and the judges were quite impressed by the dancing and acting abilities of this duo . Both the judges gave some tips to them to make their performances better in the upcoming episodes , and Johar stated that only good looks and screen presence does not transform a performer into a superstar . Shivank Choudhary who belongs to a family of doctors came on the stage to play the role of Ghajini 's son in the final act for this evening . Sweet looking Laveena Keswani played the role of his wife in the conceptualized sequel of 2008 blockbuster movie . This comedy act was enjoyed by the audience and other contestants alike . However , the judges were not very impressed by the act and gave some constructive feedback . Wahi and Dhanjani entertained the judges by acting as posters of some popular movies and Chopra too added her oomph by being Kashibai for the poster of Bajirao Mastani . With the good wishes to all the contestants , Chopra left the show with this positive note that , she too has come from a non-filmy background and has made it big in the industry and has done some work in the US too . The contestants are very lucky that they have got this platform where such great talents will be honing their skills . The introductions of all the performers which were presented as audio visual clips in the background continued in this episode too . Episode 3 This episode which was aired on 20 Jan 2018 ( Saturday ) started with a bang as the scoring for the contestants started from today . Also the eliminations started from this episode . Sidharth Malhotra visited the show to promote his upcoming movie Aiyaary . Since Johar had created the debut of Malhotra in his blockbuster movie Student of the Year , he was quite proud of the moment that his career graph is growing . The theme of this episode was ' ' Khichdi ' ' ( mixture ) which meant that essence of two Bollywood movies were mixed and presented in a completely different manner . To add to the humor , the distorted face of Dhanjani was later fixed by Shetty . The first performance saw the mixture of Dabangg and Don . Vali played the role of Don ( originally played by Shahrukh Khan ) and Nanda played the role of Chulbul Pandey ( originally played by Salman Khan in Dabangg . The comedy act became funnier when some elements of Karan Arjun were mixed with it . Vali got a score of eight and Nanda got nine from the judges . Choudhary played the role of Babubhai from Hera Pheri which was originally played by Paresh Rawal . Prajapati played the role of Sulu from the latest movie Tumhari Sulu . The judges were not very impressed with Chaudhary 's performance as they felt that he could not bring out the body language and expressions of the character . Johar mentioned that Chaudhary ( Final score six - lowest in the episode ) is very talented , and if he took the feedback seriously , then he will do very well . However , they were fairly impressed by Prajapati 's sizzling dance moves and gave her a score of seven . However , the audiences enjoyed the performance a lot and there was a lot of hooting and whistling . Even Johar and Shetty were laughing in the middle of the act . And audio visual clip from the pathshala was shown and Choudhary was seen roaming around like a zombie and he confessed that he does not get proper sleep at nights . Johar called him ' ' Bhatke huye aatma ' ' ( lost spirit ) . The spotlight challenge winner Kapur came in to portray the life and career of the famous tennis player Sania Mirza . This performance was hugely appreciated by Shetty and Johar and she managed to get the perfect score of ten . Even though the mike had fallen in the middle of the act , she did not let anything distract her . Shetty stated that this was a teaser for her forthcoming career which seems very bright . Kapur 's grandparents graced the stage and showed their togetherness which has spanned over five decades . The next performance was presented by Bhasin , who played the role of Piku ( originally played by Deepika Padukone ) in the movie with the same name . Bagri played the role of chachi Lakshmi Godbole , from the movie Chachi 420 . Gandotra played the role of Piku 's father ( originally played by Amitabh Bacchan ) and this comic act was appreciated by the judges . Johar stated that he has never seen such a quirky act on Indian TV . Gandotra scooped up a high score of eight and Bagri scored a perfect ten . Bhasin managed to get seven for this act . Bagri 's mother talked about the hardships their family had faced when her husband was detected with cancer . She also talked about how hard Bagri works , and plays the role of a perfect son . It was an emotional moment when Bagri 's eyes became moist . The hosts played Bollywood related games with the judges and entertained the audience and Malhotra impressed everyone with his presence of mind . The last act for the evening brought out the essence of 1987 blockbuster film Mr. India and 2004 super hit film Main Hoon Na . Taluja played the role of Arun ( Originally played by Anil Kapoor ) and Vyas played the role of the sensuous chemistry teacher Chandni ( originally played by Sushmita Sen ) . This comic act with some great dance moves portrayed the love between the teacher and the student Arun . The iconic song ' ' Kaate Nahin Kat - te yeh din yeh raat ' ' got the audience go crazy . Taluja got a score of seven and Vyas scored quite low ( six marks ) . Johar advised Vyas to work on her pitch and other finer aspects of acting . Episode 4 This episode which was aired on 21 Jan 2018 ( Sunday ) continued the same theme as of episode 3 . The first act of the evening started with a bang , with the performance of Mehrotra and Bharadwaj . They mixed the essence of Baghban where the offspring of the family fail to take care of their ageing parents along with the essence of English Vinglish , wherein the kids of the family make fun of their mother due to her inability to speak in English . Bharadwaj played the role of the mother ( originally played by Sridevi ) and Mehrotra played the role of the father ( originally played by Amitabh Bacchan . The brilliance of their acting moved the audience and Mehrotra scored a high eight and Bharadwaj scored a high nine . Johar loved their performance and stated that he felt that this was an excerpt from a Hrishikesh Mukherjee film . The judges were made to inhale helium gas and blurt out famous dialogues . This sporting act of the judges entertained the audience and the contestants . Malhotra had given this challenge which turned out into a comedy act .

( November 2006 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) The history of Nintendo traces back to 1889 , when it was founded to produce handmade hanafuda cards . Nintendo Co. , Ltd. ( 任天堂 株式 会社 , Nintendō kabushikigaisha ) is a Japanese multinational consumer electronics company headquartered in Kyoto , Japan . It eventually became one of the most prominent figures in today 's video game industry , being the world 's largest video game company by revenue .

Based in Kyoto , Japan , the business produced and marketed Hanafuda cards . The name `` Nintendo '' is commonly assumed to mean `` leave luck to heaven '' , but there are no historical records to validate this assumption . The cards , which were all handmade , soon began to gain in popularity , and Yamauchi had to hire assistants to mass - produce cards to keep up with the demand . Fusajiro Yamauchi did not have a son to take over the family business . Following common Japanese tradition , he adopted his son - in - law , Sekiryo Yamauchi , ( after the wife ) . In 1929 , Yamauchi retired from the company and allowed Sekiryo Yamauchi to take over the company as president . In 1933 , Sekiryo Yamauchi established a joint venture with another company and renamed the company Yamauchi Nintendo & Co . In 1947 , Sekiryo established a distribution company , Marufuku Co. , Ltd. , to distribute the Hanafuda cards , as well as several other brands of cards that had been introduced by Nintendo . Sekiryo Yamauchi also had only daughters , so again his son - in - law ( Shikanojo Inaba , renamed Shikanojo Yamauchi ) was adopted into the family . Shikanojo never became president because he abandoned his family . Subsequently , his son Hiroshi was brought up by his grandparents . He later took over the company instead of his father . 1889 -- 1965 : as a card company ( edit ) This section possibly contains original research . Please improve it by verifying the claims made and adding inline citations . Statements consisting only of original research should be removed . ( March 2012 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) In 1949 , Hiroshi Yamauchi was attending Waseda University in Tokyo , however , after his grandfather died he left to take office as the president of Nintendo . In 1951 , he renamed `` Marufuku Co. Ltd . '' to `` Nintendo Playing Card Co. , Ltd . '' In 1953 , Nintendo became the first company in Japan to produce playing cards from plastic . In 1956 , Yamauchi visited the U.S. , to engage in talks with the United States Playing Card Company , the dominant playing card manufacturer in the United States . He was shocked to find that the world 's biggest company in his business was relegated to using a small office . This was a turning point for Yamauchi , who then realized the limitations of the playing card business . In 1959 , Nintendo struck a deal with Disney to allow the use Disney 's characters on Nintendo 's playing cards . Previously , Western playing cards were regarded as something similar to hanafuda and mahjong : a device for gambling . By tying playing cards to Disney and selling books explaining the different games one could play with the cards , Nintendo could sell the product to Japanese households . The tie - in was a success and the company sold at least 600,000 card packs in a single year . Due to this success , in 1962 , Yamauchi took Nintendo public , listing the company in Osaka Stock Exchange Second division . Following the aforementioned success , in 1963 Nintendo Playing Card Co. , Ltd. was renamed to Nintendo by Yamauchi . Nintendo now began to experiment in other areas of business using the newly injected capital . During the period of time between 1963 and 1968 , Nintendo set up a taxi company , `` love hotel '' chain , food company ( trying to sell instant rice , similar to instant noodles ) and several other things ( including a vacuum cleaner , Chiritory , which later appeared as a two - player game in WarioWare , Inc. : Mega Microgame $ in 2003 ) . All these ventures eventually failed , except toymaking , where they had some earlier experience from selling playing cards . In 1964 , while Japan was experiencing an economic boom due to the Tokyo Olympics , the playing card business reached its saturation point . Japanese households stopped buying playing cards , and the price of Nintendo stock fell from 900 yen to 60 yen . In 1965 , Nintendo hired Gunpei Yokoi as a maintenance engineer for the assembly line . However , Yokoi soon became famous for much more than his ability to repair conveyor belts . 1966 -- 1972 : toy company and new ventures ( edit ) Nintendo struggled to survive in the Japanese toy industry ; it was still small at this point , and dominated by already well - established companies such as Bandai and Tomy . Because of the generally short product life cycle of toys , the company always had to come up with new products . This was the beginning of a major new era for Nintendo . In 1966 , Yamauchi was observing a hanafuda factory . He noticed an extending arm , which was made by one of their maintenance engineers , Gunpei Yokoi , for his own amusement . Yamauchi ordered Yokoi to develop it as a proper product for the Christmas rush . Released as the `` Ultra Hand '' , it would become one of Nintendo 's earliest toy blockbusters , selling over a million units . Seeing that Yokoi had promise , Yamauchi pulled him off assembly line work . Yokoi was soon moved from maintenance duty to product development . Due to his electrical engineering background , it soon become apparent that Yokoi was quite adept at developing electronic toys . These devices had a much higher novelty value than traditional toys , allowing Nintendo to charge a higher price margin for each product . Yokoi went on to develop many other toys , including the Ten Billion Barrel puzzle , a baseball throwing machine called the Ultra Machine , and a Love Tester . Another invention of his , in collaboration with Masayuki Uemura from Sharp , was the Nintendo Beam Gun Game , the precursor to the NES Zapper ( which was used in games like Duck Hunt . ) . Nintendo released the first solar - powered light gun , the Nintendo Beam Gun , in 1970 ; this was the first commercially available light - gun for home use , produced in partnership with Sharp . In 1972 , Nintendo released the Ele - Conga , one of the first programmable drum machines . It could play pre-programmed rhythms from disc - shaped punch cards , which could be altered or programmed by the user , to play different patterns . 1972 -- present : electronic games ( edit ) In 1972 , the first commercially available video game console , the Magnavox Odyssey , had a light gun accessory , the Shooting Gallery . This was the first involvement of Nintendo in video games . According to Martin Picard in the International Journal of Computer Game Research : `` in 1971 , Nintendo had -- even before the marketing of the first home console in the United States -- an alliance with the American pioneer Magnavox to develop and produce optoelectronic guns for the Odyssey ( released in 1972 ) , since it was similar to what Nintendo was able to offer in the Japanese toy market in 1970s '' . In 1973 , its focus shifted to family entertainment venues with the Laser Clay Shooting System , using the same light gun technology used in Nintendo 's Kousenjuu series of toys , and set up in abandoned bowling alleys . Following some success , Nintendo developed several more light gun machines for the emerging arcade scene . While the Laser Clay Shooting System ranges had to be shut down following excessive costs , Nintendo had found a new market . In 1974 , Nintendo secured the rights to distribute the Magnavox Odyssey video game console in Japan . Color TV - game 6 ( edit ) Main article : Color TV Game Nintendo 's first video game system , the Color TV Game 6 Nintendo at this time saw how successful video games were and began to dabble in them . Their first step in that field was to secure the rights to distribute the Magnavox Odyssey in Japan in 1975 . At the time , home video game consoles were extremely rare -- even the seminal Atari Pong console had yet to be produced . After experiencing reasonable success at this , Nintendo began developing its own video games , both for home and for arcades . In the 1970s , Mitsubishi Electric proposed joint development of `` Color TV Game Machine '' . In 1977 , they released `` Color TV Game 6 '' and `` Color TV Game 15 '' ( 6 and 15 indicates the number of games ) . Their first video arcade game was 1975 's EVR Race ; a handful of others followed in the next several years , Radar Scope and Donkey Kong being among the most famous of these . The early 1980s saw Nintendo 's video game division ( led by Yokoi ) creating some of its most famous arcade titles . The massively popular Donkey Kong was created in 1981 , with Shigeru Miyamoto as its mastermind , and released in the arcades and on the Atari 2600 , Intellivision , and ColecoVision video game systems ( although Nintendo themselves generally had no involvement with these early console ports ) . This release method would be used on several later Nintendo arcade games of this same period , including the original Mario Bros. ( not to be confused with the later Super Mario Bros . ) In addition to this arcade and dedicated console game activity , Nintendo was testing the consumer handheld video game waters with the Game & Watch . Game & Watch and Nintendo Entertainment system ( edit ) Main articles : Game & Watch , Nintendo Entertainment System , and History of the Nintendo Entertainment System Game & Watch or G&W is a line of handheld electronic games produced by Nintendo from 1980 to 1991 . Created by game designer Gunpei Yokoi , each Game & Watch features a single game to be played on an LCD screen in addition to a clock and / or an alarm . It was the earliest Nintendo product to garner major success , with 43.4 million units sold worldwide . In 1982 , Nintendo developed a prototype system dubbed the `` Advanced Video System '' ( or AVS for short ) and had controllers much like the NES . There were accessories such as a tape drive , a joystick and a lightgun , and along with all of that , the system was made of a computer , much like the Atari 400 , Commodore Vic - 20 and Commodore 64 . It was never released and is on display at the Nintendo World Store in New York . In July 1983 , Nintendo released the Famicom ( Family Computer ) system in Japan , which was its first attempt at a cartridge - based video game console . The system sold over 500,000 units within two months at a price around $100 USD . However , after a few months of favorable sales , Nintendo received complaints that some Famicom consoles would freeze when the player attempted to play certain games . The fault was found in a malfunctioning chip and Nintendo decided to recall all Famicom units that were currently on store shelves , which ultimately cost them approximately half a million USD . During this period , Nintendo rekindled their desire to release the Famicom ( Or Nintendo Entertainment System ) in the US . Since the company had very little experience with the US market , they had previously attempted to contract with Atari for the system 's distribution in 1983 . However , a fiasco involving Coleco and Donkey Kong soured the relationship between the two during the negotiations , and Atari refused to back Nintendo 's console . In 1983 - 1985 , a large scale recession in video game sales hit the market which amounted to a 97 % decrease primarily in the North American area . The recession known as the `` video game crash of 1983 '' was caused by a few main factors including the flooding of the console market , competition of home computers , inflation , and loss of publishing control . The video game crash of 1983 soon took out not only Atari , but the vast majority of the American market itself . Over time , dominance in the market shifted from America to Japan . Nintendo began exporting to America and had virtually only one major competitor in the market , Sega , which was another Japanese company . The Nintendo Entertainment System ( NES ) , released in 1985 , is one of the most popular consoles of all time . Nintendo was determined not to make the same mistakes in the US that Atari had . Because of massive influxes of games that were regarded as some of the worst ever created , gaming had almost completely died out in America . Nintendo decided that to avoid facing the same problems , they would only allow games that received their `` Seal of Quality '' to be sold for the Famicom . In 1985 , Nintendo announced that they were releasing the Famicom worldwide with a different design under the name the Nintendo Entertainment System ( NES ) . They used a creative tactic to counter the bad view that the media was giving on video games , and released the NES with R.O.B. units that connected to the console and were synchronised to the games . To ensure the localization of the highest - quality games by third - party developers , Nintendo of America limited the number of game titles third - party developers could release in a single year to five . Konami , the first third - party company that was allowed to make cartridges for the Famicom , would later circumvent this rule by creating a spinoff company , Ultra Games , to release additional games in a single year . Other manufacturers soon employed the same tactic . Also in 1985 , Super Mario Bros. was released for the Famicom in Japan and became a large success . Nintendo test marketed the Nintendo Entertainment System in the New York area on October 18 , 1985 . They expanded the test to Los Angeles in February 1986 , followed by tests in Chicago and San Francisco . They would go national by the end of 1986 , along with 15 games , sold separately . In the US and Canada , it outsold its competitors by a wide margin . This was also the year that Metroid and Super Mario Bros. 2 ( the Japanese version ) were released . In 1987 , The Legend of Zelda was released to much critical acclaim . In 1988 , Nintendo of America unveiled Nintendo Power , a monthly news and strategy magazine from Nintendo that served to advertise new games . The first issue published was the July / August edition , which spotlighted the NES game Super Mario Bros. 2 . Nintendo Power has since ceased publication with its December 2012 edition . Game Boy and Super NES ( edit ) Main articles : Game Boy and Super Nintendo Entertainment System The original Game Boy In 1989 , Nintendo ( which had seen a large amount of success from the Game & Watch ) released the Game Boy ( both created by Gunpei Yokoi ) , along with the accompanying game Tetris . Due to the price , the game and its durability ( unlike the prior Microvision from Milton Bradley Company , which was prone to static and screen rot ) , the Game Boy line sold extremely well , eventually amassing sales of 118 million units . Later , Super Mario Land was also released for the Game Boy , which sold 14 million copies worldwide . 1989 was also the year that Nintendo announced a sequel to the Famicom , to be called the Super Famicom . The last major first - party game for the NES , Super Mario Bros. 3 , was released in early 1990 , and went on to sell over 18 million units . It was followed by a licensed television adaption named The Super Mario Bros. Super Show ! , which was released by DIC Entertainment and Viacom Enterprises in that year to capitalise on the game 's immense popularity . The Super Famicom was released in Japan on November 21 , 1990 . The system 's launch was widely successful , and the Super Famicom was sold out across Japan within three days , selling 1.6 million units by June 1991 . In August 1991 , the Super Famicom was launched in the US under the name `` Super Nintendo Entertainment System '' ( SNES ) , followed by Europe in 1992 . The Super Nintendo Entertainment System followed in the steps of its predecessor , with high technical specifications for its era . The controller of the SNES had also improved over that of the NES , as it now had rounded edges and four new buttons , a standard which is evident on many modern controllers today . The original North American SNES , c. 1991 Nintendo had also begun development on a CD - ROM attachment for the SNES / Super Famicom . Their first partner in this project was Sony , whom Nintendo had worked with before to provide the SNES with its SPC sound chip . Development on the Nintendo PlayStation CD - ROM add - on and SNES / SFC standalone hybrid console began . However , at the last minute Nintendo decided to pull out of the partnership and instead go with Philips , and while no CD - ROM add - on was produced , several Nintendo properties ( namely The Legend of Zelda ) appeared on the Philips CD - i media console . Upon learning this , Sony decided to continue developing the technology they had into the PlayStation . The exact reason Nintendo left its partnership with Sony has been the subject of speculation over the years , but the most common theory is that Sony either wanted too much of the profits for the machine or the rights to the CD - ROM attachment itself . In Japan , the Super Famicom easily took control of the gaming market . In the US , due to a late start and an aggressive marketing campaign by Sega ( Headed by the Sega Company 's new mascot , Sonic The Hedgehog , their answer to Nintendo 's Super Mario ) , Nintendo saw its market share take a precipitous plunge from 90 - 95 % with the NES to a low of approximately 35 % against the Sega Genesis . Over the course of several years , the SNES in North America eventually overtook the Genesis , thanks to franchise titles such as Super Mario World , The Legend of Zelda : A Link to the Past , Street Fighter II , and the Final Fantasy series . Total worldwide sales of the SNES reached 49.10 million units , eclipsing the estimated 40 million unit sales of the Genesis . As the SNES battled the Sega Genesis , Nintendo was running into problems on another front caused by their own aggressive marketing behavior . In 1991 , Nintendo agreed to a settlement regarding price - fixing allegations brought by the Federal Trade Commission and attorneys general in New York and Maryland . Nintendo had been accused of threatening to cut off shipments of the NES to retailers who discounted the price of the system . The estimated cost of the settlement was just under $30 million . In 1992 , Gunpei Yokoi and the rest of R&D 1 began planning on a new virtual reality console to be called the Virtual Boy . Hiroshi Yamauchi also bought majority shares of the Seattle Mariners in 1992 . By May 1993 , Nintendo had reportedly become one of the top ten leading companies in the world . In 1993 , Nintendo announced plans to develop a new 64 - bit console codenamed Project Reality that would be capable of rendering fully 3D environments and characters . In 1994 , Nintendo also claimed that Project Reality would be renamed Ultra 64 in the US . The Ultra 64 moniker was unveiled in arcades on the Nintendo branded fighting game Killer Instinct and the racing game Cruisin ' USA . Killer Instinct was later released on the SNES . Soon after , Nintendo realized they had mistakenly chosen a name for their new console that the Konami corporation owned the rights to . Specifically , only Konami would have the rights to release games for the new system called Ultra Football , Ultra Tennis , etc . Therefore , in 1995 Nintendo changed the final name of the system to the Nintendo 64 , and announced that it would be released in 1996 . They later showed previews of the system and several games , including Super Mario 64 , to the media and public . 1995 is also the year that Nintendo purchased part of Rare . In 1994 , after many years of Nintendo 's products being distributed in Australia by Mattel since the NES in 1985 , Nintendo opened its Australian headquarters and its first Managing Directors were Graham Kerry , who moved along from Mattel Australia as Managing Director and Susumu Tanaka of Nintendo UK Ltd . In 1995 , Nintendo released the Virtual Boy in Japan . The console sold poorly , but Nintendo still said they had hope for it and continued to release several other games and attempted a release in the US , which was another disaster . Also in 1995 , Nintendo found themselves in a competitive situation . Competitor Sega introduced their 32 - bit Saturn , while newcomer Sony introduced the 32 - bit PlayStation . Sony 's fierce marketing campaigns ensued , and it started to cut into Nintendo and Sega 's market share . Nintendo 64 and game Boy Color ( edit ) Main articles : Nintendo 64 and Game Boy Color Nintendo 64 black console with blank game cartridge and grey controller On June 23 , 1996 , the Nintendo 64 ( N64 ) was released in Japan , selling over 500,000 units on the first day of its release . On September 29 , 1996 , Nintendo released the Nintendo 64 in North America , selling out the initial shipment of 350,000 . Many feel that the advertising onslaught by Sony at this time did not truly begin to take effect until many of the consumers who held out for the N64 became frustrated at the lack of software following the first few months after the system 's release . What also greatly contributed to the extremely competitive climate that Nintendo was entrenched in was the fact that many third - party companies immediately began developing and releasing many of their leading games for Nintendo 's competing consoles . Many of those third party companies cited cheaper development and manufacturing costs for the CD format , versus the cartridge format . On December 1 , 1999 , Nintendo released an add - on to the Nintendo 64 in Japan , titled the Nintendo 64DD , although it was never released elsewhere . Nintendo followed with the release of the Game Boy Pocket , a smaller version of the original Game Boy , designed by Gunpei Yokoi as a parting gift . A week after the release of the Game Boy Pocket , Gunpei resigned from his position at Nintendo . Gunpei helped in the creation of a competitor system named the WonderSwan , using the skills he gained in the creation of the Game Boy . In 1996 , Pocket Monsters ( known internationally as `` Pokémon '' ) was released in Japan to a huge following . The Pokémon franchise , created by Satoshi Tajiri , was proving so popular in America , Europe , and Japan , that for a brief time , Nintendo took back their place as the supreme power in the games industry . In 1997 , Game Boy and Metroid creator Gunpei Yokoi died in a car accident at the age of 56 . On October 13 , 1998 , the Game Boy Color was released in Japan , with releases in North America and Europe a month later . Game Boy Advance and GameCube ( edit ) Main articles : Game Boy Advance and GameCube GameCube with controller and 251 - block memory card Nintendo released the Game Boy Advance in Japan on March 21 , 2001 , followed by the North American launch on June 11 and the European launch on June 22 . Nintendo released the GameCube home video game console on September 14 , 2001 , in Japan . It was released in North America on November 18 , 2001 , Europe on May 3 , 2002 , and Australia on May 17 , 2002 . In January 2002 , Minoru Arakawa resigned as president of Nintendo of America , and Nintendo named Tatsumi Kimishima as his successor . In May 2002 , Hiroshi Yamauchi stepped down as the president of Nintendo and named Satoru Iwata his successor . During the same year , Nintendo and Chinese - American scientist Dr Wei Yen co-founded iQue to manufacture and distribute official Nintendo consoles and games for the mainland Chinese market under the iQue brand . Nintendo 's aggressive business tactics in Europe would catch up to them . The European Commission determined that Nintendo had engaged in anticompetitive price - fixing business practices dating at least as far back as the early 1990s . This resulted in a heavy fine being laid against the company -- € 149 million , one of the largest antitrust fines applied in the history of the commission . Nintendo DS and Wii ( edit ) Main articles : Nintendo DS , Nintendo DS Lite , Nintendo DSi , Nintendo DSi XL , and Wii Nintendo DS Lite in its opened position In May 2004 , Nintendo announced plans to release a new brand of handheld , unrelated to the Game Boy , featuring two screens , one of which was touch - sensitive . The Nintendo DS , released on November 21 , 2004 , received over three million pre-orders . In addition to the touch screen , the DS can also create three - dimensional graphics , similar to those of the Nintendo 64 , although its lack of hardware support for texture filtering results in more pixelated graphics than on the Nintendo 64 . President Satoru Iwata reassigned all of Nintendo 's software designers under new managers and different division ; most of the resources were allocated to Shigeru Miyamoto and Takashi Tezuka and the Nintendo EAD division . On May 14 , 2005 , Nintendo opened its first retail store accessible to the general public , Nintendo World Store , at the Rockefeller Center in New York City . It consists of two stories , and contains many kiosks of GameCube , Game Boy Advance , and Nintendo DS games . There are also display cases filled with things from Nintendo 's past , including Hanafuda playing cards , Nintendo 's first product . They celebrated the opening with a block party at Rockefeller Plaza . At E3 in May 2005 , Nintendo displayed the first prototype for their `` next - generation '' system , codenamed the Nintendo Revolution ( now known as the Wii ) , its controller revealed at the Tokyo Game Show later that year . On January 26 , 2006 , Nintendo announced a new version of their Nintendo DS handheld , the Nintendo DS Lite , designed to be smaller and lighter , with a brighter screen . It was launched in Japan on March 2 , 2006 , and three months later in North America and Europe on June 11 and June 23 , 2006 , respectively . On May 25 , 2006 , Reggie Fils - Aimé was promoted to President and COO of Nintendo of America , Inc . The former President , Tatsumi Kimishima , was promoted to Chairman of the Board and CEO . On July 7 , 2006 , Nintendo officially established a South Korean subsidiary , Nintendo Korea , in the country 's capital , Seoul , which replaced Daewon Media as the official distributor of Nintendo products in South Korea . Original Wii console with Wii Remote In early August 2006 , it was revealed that Nintendo , along with Microsoft , was made the target of a patent - infringement lawsuit . Leveled by the Anascape Ltd. , the suit claimed that Nintendo 's use of analog technology in their game controllers constitutes a violation of their patents . The lawsuit sought to recover damages from both corporations and possibly force them to stop selling controllers with the violating technology . Microsoft settled with Anasacape , while Nintendo went to trial , initially losing and being ordered to pay US $ 21 million in damages . Nintendo appealed , and on April 23 , 2010 the Federal Circuit reversed the ruling . In November 2010 , Anascape 's appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States was denied . In mid-September 2006 , during press conferences held in Tokyo , New York , and London on 13 , 14 and 15 September , respectively , Nintendo announced launch details for its Wii console , as well as demonstrated features of the `` Wii Menu '' GUI . The system was first released on November 19 , 2006 in the US , followed by the Japanese launch on December 2 , the Australian launch on December 6 , and the European launch on December 8 . The console sold fast and was a big breakthrough for Nintendo , picking up the pace lost from their last console , the GameCube . The success of the Wii has been attributed to the intended market of the product ; while at the time most competitors were focusing on more adult and fan - based games , Nintendo decided to release a console for a larger demographic , one including casual gamers , children and those who would n't ordinarily play video games . Since no other major gaming console was marketing for this image , these other companies were caught mostly unprepared by the success of the Wii system , and it was n't until 2010 that Sony and Microsoft released consoles targeting the same demographic as the Wii . On September 17 , 2007 , Nintendo of America closed its official forums , the NSider Forums , indefinitely due to a major overhaul of their site . For months prior , cutbacks in Nintendo of America 's online department led to the trimming back of NSider 's chat hours and the replacement of their annual Camp Hyrule event -- held during August -- with a sweepstakes . In the meantime , Nintendo encouraged fans to run their own forums . Nintendo - Europe 's forum section of their site was also officially closed down a week later due to a site revamp , however it had been offline citing `` security issues '' since June of that year . On December 19 , 2007 , Nintendo opened a forum for technical support only . In October 2007 , Nintendo announced Nintendo Australia 's new Managing Director , Rose Lappin . She is Nintendo 's first female head of one of its subsidiaries and worked for Nintendo before it started in Australia as Director of Sales and Marketing for Mattel and had that role until she was announced Managing Director . On November 1 , 2008 , Nintendo released an updated version of the Nintendo DS Lite in Japan ; the Nintendo DSi . It includes all features of the Nintendo DS Lite , but it includes a camera on the inside and outside of the system , and newer features . It is the first handheld game system manufactured by Nintendo that allows downloadable gaming content to the system . The Nintendo DSi was released April 2 , 2009 , in Australia and Asia , April 3 , 2009 , in Europe , and April 5 , 2009 , in North America . Nintendo 3DS , Wii U , and Nintendo Switch ( edit ) Main articles : Nintendo 3DS , Nintendo 3DS XL , Nintendo 2DS , New Nintendo 3DS , Wii U , and Nintendo Switch The Wii U console with Wii U GamePad On February 26 , 2011 , the Nintendo 3DS was released in Japan . It was released on March 25 and 27 to Europe and the US , respectively . The 3DS was part of a large wave of 3D technologies being released at the time ; unlike most of these , the 3DS did not use 3D glasses for its 3D effect , and instead used parallax barrier autostereoscopy . On April 25 , 2011 , Nintendo confirmed that they were making a new console to be released in 2012 . On June 7 , 2011 , the console was announced as being named the Wii U . The Wii U is Nintendo 's first console to be able to play video games in 1080p HD . During the Electronics Entertainment Expo in 2011 , Nintendo 's press conference put a great amount of stress on the abilities and innovations of the new controller , a unit resembling a tablet . Many gamers were confused after the press conference about whether the Wii U is an entirely new system or just a new controller for the Wii . The Wii U was , however , a whole new home console system developed by Nintendo . The system was released on November 18 , 2012 in North America , November 30 , 2012 in Europe and Australia , and on December 8 , 2012 in Japan . It featured a new controller with a 6.2 inch touchscreen , two thumb pads , four shoulder buttons , a directional pad , and four lettered buttons . It also featured an accelerometer , gyroscope , camera , Near - field communications ( NFC ) , and built - in microphone , similar those in the Nintendo 3DS . The Nintendo Switch Console in the Dock with Red and Blue Joy - Con controllers . On July 11 , 2015 , Satoru Iwata died from a bile duct tumor at the age of 55 . Following his death , Shigeru Miyamoto and Genyo Takeda jointly led the company on an interim basis until Tatsumi Kimishima 's appointment as Iwata 's successor on September 16 , 2015 . In addition to the appointment , Miyamoto was named `` Creative Fellow '' while Takeda was named `` Technology Fellow '' . In October 2016 , Nintendo revealed a new system called the Nintendo Switch , which was released on March 3 , 2017 . It is a hybrid video game console with detachable controllers with an emphasize on portability and on the go multiplayer in contrast of the then competitors PlayStation 4 and Xbox One . In the year the Switch was released Nintendo put out The Legend of Zelda : Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odyssey , both games with critical acclaim that helped sell millions of units in the first year of the new console , eventually culminating with the Legend of Zelda : Breath of the Wild being named Game of the Year 2017 .

Official English title Original Japanese title Original air date English air date 151 `` Sabertooth '' `` Seibātūsu '' ( 剣 咬 の 虎 ( セイバー トゥース ) ) October 6 , 2012 November 17 , 2015 The Legion Platoon is tasked by Zentopia 's archbishop to retrieve the missing pieces of the Infinity Clock and seal them again . Before embarking on their mission , they visit Fairy Tail and make amends with the guild for their previous hostility against them . It is later discovered that Fairy Tail has lost their title as the strongest guild in Fiore to the Saber Tooth guild over the past seven years . Two of the strongest wizards in the guild include a pair of Dragon Slayers named Sting and Rogue , who are obsessed with fighting Natsu and Gajeel , respectively . Meanwhile , Makarov brings Gildarts to their abandoned guildhall and shows him Lumen Histoire , a light that Makarov says is Fairy Tail 's greatest secret . Makarov then tells Gildarts that he has been chosen to become the next master of Fairy Tail . 152 `` And So We Aim for the Top '' `` Soshite Ore - tachi wa Chōjō o Mezasu '' ( そして オレ たち は 顶 上 を 目指す ) October 13 , 2012 November 24 , 2015 Natsu and his friends discover that a power gap has developed between them and the rest of the guild members who were not on Tenrou Island . The group meets with Poluchka for medicine to strengthen their magic , but are unsuccessful . Wendy recognizes Poluchka 's voice and scent as those of Grandine , the dragon who raised her . Poluchka reveals herself as the Edolas counterpart of Grandine , and gives Wendy written instructions for two advanced spells that Grandine failed to teach her . Meanwhile , Makarov announces Gildarts ' succession as master to the rest of the guild , only to find he has gone on a journey , leaving a letter of resignation behind . In the letter , Gildarts reinstates Laxus into the guild , returns mastership to Makarov , and tells him to make Fairy Tail the strongest guild in Fiore again . Romeo suggests they participate in the Grand Magic Games , an annual festival designed to determine the guild rankings in Fiore . 153 `` Song of the Stars '' `` Hoshiboshi no Uta '' ( 星々 の 歌 ) October 20 , 2012 December 1 , 2015 With the Grand Magic Games occurring in three months time , Natsu and his friends train at a beach resort . On their second day of training , Virgo appears and tells the wizards that the Celestial Spirit World is in danger of destruction . When the wizards arrive , they instead find a surprise party held by the Celestial Spirit King celebrating their return from Sirius Island after seven years . They spend the day in the spirit world partying with the spirits . Before they leave , however , Virgo informs them that one day in the spirit world equals three months in the human world , and they find the Grand Magic Games are upon them . 154 `` For All the Time We Missed Each Other '' `` Surechigatta Jikan no Bun dake '' ( すれ 违 っ た 时间 の 分 だけ ) October 27 , 2012 December 8 , 2015 While mulling over their lost training time , the Fairy Tail wizards receive a message via carrier pigeon requesting a private meeting in the forest nearby . There they meet a runaway Jellal , Ultear , and Merudy , who have formed their own guild , Crime Sorcière , to defeat Zeref and any dark guilds that try to use his power . The three ask Fairy Tail for their help in determining the source of a magical anomaly similar to Zeref 's magic that they have sensed around the Grand Magic Games arena , Domus Flau . In exchange , Ultear uses her magic to invoke their Second Origin in order to double their magic power . As the others undergo the painful process of awakening their Second Origin , Erza talks with Jellal over his regained memories . The two nearly kiss , but Jellal decides that he and Erza can not be together and lies to her that he has a fiancée . Erza quickly picks up on this and respects his decision , seeing Crime Sorcière off as they leave . 155 `` Crocus , the Flower - Blooming Capital '' `` Hanasaku Miyako : Kurokkasu '' ( 花 笑 く 都 ・ クロッカス ) November 3 , 2012 December 15 , 2015 Natsu , Lucy , Gray , Erza , and Wendy are chosen to represent their guild in the Grand Magic Games , which are to be held in Fiore 's capital , Crocus . As they tour the city , Natsu and Happy encounter the twin dragon slayers , Sting and Rogue , who mock Natsu for not being able to kill Acnologia , and boast of becoming true dragon slayers by killing the dragons who raised them . At midnight , Fairy Tail and the other participating guilds are put through a preliminary event -- a race through a massive floating labyrinth -- designed to narrow the number of participating guilds down to eight teams . 156 `` Sky Labyrinth '' `` Sukai Rabirinsu '' ( 空中 迷宮 ( スカイ ラビリンス ) ) November 10 , 2012 December 22 , 2015 Natsu 's team notices that Wendy has gone missing , so Elfman replaces her to keep them from being eliminated . As they make their way through the enchanted labyrinth , the five encounter various other guilds and steal the maps made by the other guilds to better navigate the maze . They manage to reach the end of the maze and pass the elimination round , confident they have arrived first , only to discover they have barely taken last place . Meanwhile , Happy , Lisanna , and the rest of the guild search for Wendy and Carla . They eventually find the two in the garden of the king 's palace , Mercurius , with their magic power depleted . 157 `` New Guild '' `` Shinki Girudo '' ( 新 规 ギルド ) November 17 , 2012 December 29 , 2015 Wendy 's body is weakened as a result of losing her magic power . As Poluchka helps her recover , she formally requests Elfman to take her place in the Grand Magic Games . Fairy Tail steps into the arena with a negative audience reception , but they are bolstered by their guild mates and the spirit of Mavis , whom only the Fairy Tail guild members can see . The next four participating teams are revealed to be Quatro Cerberus , Mermaid Heel , Blue Pegasus , and Lamia Scale . Following them is Raven Tail , a former dark guild led by Makarov 's son Ivan , who confess to attacking Wendy and Carla . To everyone 's shock , the next team is revealed to be a second team from Fairy Tail composed of Gajeel , Juvia , Mirajane , Laxus , and Jellal ( disguised as Mystogan to help investigate the arena ) . The final guild to be announced is Saber Tooth , much to the joy of the audience . With all eight teams announced , they each send out one member to participate in the first contest of the games , with Gray and Juvia representing their teams . 158 `` Night of Shooting Stars '' `` Hoshi Furu Yoru ni '' ( 星 降 ル 夜 ニ ) November 24 , 2012 January 5 , 2016 The games ' first contest , `` Hidden '' , requires the eight participants to score points by finding and attacking each other in a virtual city filled with copies of themselves . Raven Tail member Nalpudding repeatedly targets Gray , who scores last place in the contest while Saber Tooth 's Rufus scores first by using his Memory - Make magic to attack all the other participants at once . Humiliated , Gray swears revenge against Raven Tail and Saber Tooth . Afterwards , Lucy is chosen to fight Raven Tail member Flare in the tournament 's first battle round . 159 `` Lucy vs. Flare '' `` Rūshii vs. Furea '' ( ルーシィ vs. フレア ) December 1 , 2012 January 12 , 2016 Lucy displays tremendous skill in her battle against Flare by being able to summon two spirits simultaneously . As Lucy gains the upper hand , Flare cheats by using her magic hair to hold Alzack and Bisca 's daughter Asuka as a hostage , blackmailing Lucy into not fighting back to keep her from harming Asuka . As Lucy tearfully speaks of Asuka 's danger , Natsu is able to hear it and rushes to Asuka to incinerate Flare 's hair , allowing Lucy to counterattack with her Urano Metoria spell in combination with Gemini . However , before the spell fully activates , Flare 's teammate Obra nullifies Lucy 's magic , causing her to collapse and lose the match . 160 `` Portent '' `` Kyōzui '' ( 凶 瑞 ) December 8 , 2012 January 19 , 2016 Blue Pegasus ' Ren defeats Mermaid Heel 's Araña during the games ' second match , while Saber Tooth 's Orga effortlessly defeats Quatro Cerberus ' War Cry in the third match . For the day 's fourth and final match , Jellal is pitted against Lamia Scale 's Jura , intending to avenge the humiliated Fairy Tail members . He mimics Mystogan 's magic to keep up his disguise , but he finds it ineffective to use against Jura and is forced to use his own magic instead . Before he can cast a spell that will expose his true identity , Ultear uses Merudy 's sensory to force Jellal into submission . Meanwhile , the hospitalized Carla awakens after having a troubling premonition of the future . 161 `` Chariots '' `` Chariotto '' ( 战 车 ( チャリオット ) ) December 15 , 2012 January 26 , 2016 Fairy Tail is undaunted by their poor performance on the first day . As the guild celebrates , they are visited and taunted by Bacchus , Erza 's rival from Quatro Cerberus , who has come to replace War Cry . Carla relays her premonition to Poluchka , saying that she saw Mercurius collapsing around what appeared to be a tearfully singing Lucy . The second day of the tournament begins with a footrace atop a train of moving chariots , causing the participants Natsu , Gajeel , and Sting to suffer from motion sickness as a side effect of their Dragon Slayer magic . As Natsu and Gajeel force themselves forward , Sting inquires about their determination to which Natsu responds that it is as a result of the strength of Fairy Tail 's bonds . Sting eventually throws the race while Natsu and Gajeel manage to finish as sixth and seventh placers , respectively , earning Fairy Tail the audience 's respect . 162 `` Elfman vs. Bacchus '' `` Erufuman vs. Bakkasu '' ( エルフマン vs. バッカス ) December 22 , 2012 September 1 , 2015 Due to a miscomunnication between the king and his knight Arcadios , Elfman is chosen as Bacchus ' opponent instead of Erza . Before the match commences , the two opponents make a wager : if Bacchus wins , he will court Elfman 's sisters , and if Elfman wins , Bacchus ' team name will be changed to `` Quatro Puppy '' for the rest of the games . Bacchus ruthlessly attacks Elfman with his bare palms , who manages to damage Bacchus with his defensive Lizardman transformation . Elfman manages to outlast Bacchus as he exhausts himself , winning the match and forcing Bacchus ' team to be renamed . Meanwhile , Natsu finds Wendy , Carla , and Poluchka being kidnapped by a group of masked men . Upon being caught , the men claim they were hired to kidnap Lucy by Raven Tail . They are soon revealed to have actually been sent by Arcadios , who intends to sow discord between the guilds as he plots to use Lucy for his `` Eclipse Project '' . 163 `` Mirajane vs. Jenny '' `` Mirajēn vs. Jenī '' ( ミラ ジェーン vs. ジェニー ) January 5 , 2013 September 1 , 2015 The second day of the Grand Magic Games continues , with Mirajane of Fairy Tail Team B fighting against Jenny Realight of Team Blue Pegasus . Since the two competitors are well - known for being magazine models , their battle consists almost entirely of a fashion showdown , much to the pleasure of the audience . Eventually as the showdown becomes redundant , Jenny proposes a wager : the loser must pose nude for the Sorcerer Magazine , which Mirajane accepts . Jenny then transforms into her battle armor while Mirajane shifts into her Satan Soul `` Sitri '' form and easily defeats Jenny . The final match of the day is announced , with Kagura Mikazuchi of Mermaid Heel pitted against Yukino Aguria of Saber Tooth . Yukino proposes to Kagura that they wager their lives on their battle . Meanwhile , Arcadios is confronted by Darton , the kingdom 's defense minister , about his `` Eclipse Project '' . 164 `` Kagura vs. Yukino '' `` Kagura vs. Yukino '' ( カグラ vs. ユキノ ) January 12 , 2013 September 1 , 2015 Yukino is revealed to be a celestial spirit wizard when she summons Libra and Pisces to attack Kagura . Using her gravity - altering magic , Kagura defeats the two spirits , thus forcing Yukino to use a Gatekey that summons Ophiuchus , which is regarded as the strongest among the Celestial Spirits . However , Kagura slays Ophiuchus with her sword still sheathed and easily defeats Yukino . Later , Jellal discusses the fact that he has not sensed the evil power similar to Zeref 's even though the second day of the Grand Magic Games has ended . Erza reunites with Milliana , who is revealed to be a member of Mermaid Heel . Meanwhile , Saber Tooth 's master Jiemma is dissatisfied with his guild 's performance . Though Sting is given another chance , Jiemma humiliates Yukino for her failure . 165 `` Hatred at Nightfall '' `` Urami wa Yoru no Tobari ni Tsutsumarete '' ( 怨み は 夜 の 帐 に 包 まれ て ) January 19 , 2013 September 1 , 2015 After Yukino is expelled from Saber Tooth , she offers her two golden Gatekeys to Lucy to complete the latter 's collection of the Zodiac Gatekeys , stating that when the twelve Zodiac Gatekeys are all gathered , a gateway that changes the world will open ; however , Lucy turns down the offer . Meanwhile , Milliana tells Erza that Kagura 's sword , Archenemy , is intended to kill Jellal , and that she and Kagura share the same resentment towards Jellal . Natsu and Happy run after Yukino in an attempt to apologize ; however , Natsu realizes that Yukino had been expelled , and infiltrates the Crocus Garden to fight Jiemma . 166 `` Pandemonium '' `` Pandemoniumu '' ( 伏魔殿 ( パンデモニウム ) ) January 26 , 2013 September 1 , 2015 After Natsu punches out Dobengal , the guild member summoned to fight him , he and Jiemma engage in a duel . However , the guild master 's daughter Minerva appears , ends their duel and , taking Happy hostage , convinces Natsu to settle their dispute in the Grand Magic Games . As Natsu leaves , he states that Saber Tooth will never surpass Fairy Tail because they care for their friends , words that are echoed by Rogue , while Sting is left in awe at Natsu 's strength . The following day as the Grand Magic Games continue , an event called `` Pandemonium '' begins . It involves the participants entering a magical citadel filled with 100 monsters of varying strengths and individually doing battle with any number of monsters they choose . Representing Fairy Tail Team A , Erza requests the 100 monsters as her opponents . 167 `` 100 Against 1 '' `` Hyaku tai Ichi '' ( 100 対 1 ) February 2 , 2013 September 1 , 2015 Erza kills the 100 monsters using various types of armor to match their strength and weaknesses . As a result , the crowd praises Fairy Tail , and the guild is awarded with 10 points . Moreover , the game officials decided to determine the ranks of the remaining participants by means of a device called `` Magic Power Finder '' ( sometimes abbreviated as MPF ) . Using this tool , participants must attack it with their magic power , which will , in turn , calculate and display their equivalent scores depending on the extent of power used . In the end , Cana of Fairy Tail Team B dominates the event by using the Fairy Glitter spell lent to her by Mavis , much to Makarov 's surprise . With Cana 's victory , Fairy Tail Team B receives 8 points , and the audience began to burst once more into a resounding swarm of cheers and claps due to the finish of the two Fairy Tail teams . Meanwhile , the Raven Tail team somehow managed to get an insider information regarding the battle matchups for the day , so the masked leader Alexei tells his subordinates Flare , Obra , Nalpudding , and Kurohebi that it 's about time to proceed with their true mission . 168 `` Laxus vs. Alexei '' `` Rakusasu vs. Arekusei '' ( ラクサス vs. アレクセイ ) February 9 , 2013 September 1 , 2015 In the battle portion of the Grand Magic Games ' third day , Milliana of Mermaid Heel beats Semmes of Quatro Puppy while Saber Tooth 's Rufus swiftly defeats Blue Pegasus ' Eve . For the third match , Laxus of Fairy Tail Team B is chosen to battle against Alexei of Team Raven Tail . Since the opponent is from a suspicious guild , the Fairy Tail members take extra precautions by watching the actions of Ivan Dreyar as well as the other four Raven Tail members . However , as the match commences , the spectators are shocked to see Laxus being beaten by Alexei , although no cautious movements can be seen from the Raven Tail team . It turns out that the two dueling people are just illusions created by Alexei in order for him to have a talk with Laxus . Also , the other Raven Tail members being monitored by Fairy Tail are just lifelike illusions , for in reality they are with Alexei in the battlefield . Alexei reveals himself to be Ivan Dreyar . Unable to interrogate Laxus of the Lumen Histoire 's location , Ivan and the Raven Tail members are forced to fight him . Before their battle begins , Ivan declares that Raven Tail is an anti-Fairy Tail guild . 169 `` Wendy vs. Shelia '' `` Wendi vs. Sheria '' ( ウェンディ vs. シェリア ) February 16 , 2013 September 1 , 2015 After Laxus defeats Ivan and the four Raven Tail elite members , Ivan 's illusions disappear to the shock of everyone in the stadium . The game officials declare Laxus the victor , and Ivan tells him that Lumen Histoire is Fairy Tail 's ' darkness ' . Due to the infraction of the rules , the Raven Tail team is disqualified for the remainder of the Games , and its members are captured by the soldiers . Later , Wendy of Fairy Tail Team A and Sherria Blendy of Team Lamia Scale face off to compete for the final match of the day . As the two exchange attacks , gusts of wind surround the arena since Sherria is revealed to be a Sky God Slayer . Wendy employs an advanced Sky Dragon Slayer attack much to Poluchka 's astonishment , causing Sherria to fall on the ground . Wendy is about to be announced as the winner of the bout when Sherria suddenly stands up with her wounds fully healed . Meanwhile , the Crime Sorcière guild senses the nefarious aura , and Jellal proceeds to the Domus Flau audience , oblivious that he bumped into Doranbolt , who , in turn , wonders what is Mystogan doing in Earthland . 170 `` Small Fists '' `` Chiisana Kobushi '' ( 小さな 拳 ) February 23 , 2013 September 1 , 2015 With Cheria being fully healed and Wendy being almost depleted of magic power , their battle continues , with the former casting a high - level spell towards the latter . However , it seems that Wendy enhances Cheria 's physical strength , causing the attack to gain much force and thus missing Wendy . The two competitors then engage in a hand - to - hand combat , but due to the time limit and neither side is giving up , their battle resulted in a draw , giving both teams with 5 points . Meanwhile , Jellal manages to track the sinister aura among the crowd in the form of a mysterious , hooded person . Jellal is about to confront the aura source , but he is abruptly cornered by Doranbolt , Lahar , and other Rune Knights . Doranbalt then interrogates Jellal , and as his cover was blown , the Rune Knights , as well as Kagura and Milliana glancing nearby , are startled to see the true identity of Mystogan . Yajima convinces the Rune Knights that Mystogan is Jellal 's Edolas counterpart , prompting Lahar to release the fugitive . Meanwhile , Laxus and Makarov have a small conversation regarding Lumen Histoire when Mavis appears and explains that Lumen Histoire is the ' light ' of Fairy Tail . 171 `` Naval Battle '' `` Nabaru Batoru '' ( 海战 ( ナバルバトル ) ) March 2 , 2013 September 1 , 2015 As the jubilant Fairy Tail members celebrate their victories , the other people , such as Sting , Kagura , and Milliana , are contemplating on their own concerns , while Yukino is enlisted as a sergeant under Arcadios ' command . Meanwhile , the fourth day of the competitions comes to a start with an event , `` Naval Battle '' , which involves the participants swimming in a giant water sphere and knocking the other competitors out . After the other participants fall out of the aquatic sphere , a five - minute battle between Lucy and Minerva ensues . However , Minerva quickly attacks Lucy , and she manages to steal the keys of the Celestial Spirit mage . Regardless of this , Lucy refuses to surrender . After hearing Lucy 's intentions , Minerva stops from attacking up to the extent that the five - minute mark was reached . However , Minerva resumes attacking Lucy until the game officials decide to halt the match . The Fairy Tail members snap , and Minerva dangles Lucy out of the sphere while the others rush to her aid . 172 `` A Parfum for You '' `` Kimi ni Sasageru Parufamu '' ( 君 に 捧げる 香り ( パルファム ) ) March 9 , 2013 September 1 , 2015 While Lucy is hospitalized and taken to the infirmary , the Fairy Tail members warn Saber Tooth that they have angered the worst possible guild to do so . Later , Makarov announces that the two Fairy Tail teams must merge as a result of the disqualification of Raven Tail and to compensate for the odd number of teams for the battle round . He also reveals that the new team will have the former Team A 's 35 points to start with . The new Fairy Tail team , consisting of Natsu , Gray , Erza , Gajeel , and Laxus , are well - received as they enter the field . The second part of the tournament begins with a tag battle between Blue Pegasus ' Ichiya and `` Rabbit '' and Quatro Puppy 's Rocker and Bacchus . To everyone 's shock , it is revealed that `` Rabbit '' is actually Nichiya in disguise , and after the Exceed is punched by Bacchus , Ichiya bulks up to defeat the Quatro Puppy opponents , awarding Blue Pegasus with 10 points . 173 `` Battle of Dragon Slayers ! '' `` Batoru obu Doragon Sureiyā '' ( バトル ・ オブ ・ ドラゴン スレイヤー ) March 16 , 2013 September 1 , 2015 Mermaid Heel 's Kagura and Milliana and Lamia Scale 's Lyon and Yuka face off for the second tag battle of the games . The two teams struggle to earn a victory , only to have their battle ending in a draw due to the time limit . For the third and final match of the day , the spectators look on in silence as Natsu and Gajeel of Team Fairy Tail and Sting and Rogue of Team Saber Tooth enter the field . As the battle commences , Sting and Rogue were about to take the initiative when they were suddenly attacked by Natsu and Gajeel . The four mages then exchange attacks ; however , the audience watches in shock as the Fairy Tail Dragon Slayers overpower the Saber Tooth Dragon Slayers . Unable to keep themselves on par with their adversaries , Sting activates ' White Drive ' while Rogue powers up using ' Shadow Drive ' . 174 `` Four Dragons '' `` Yonin no Doragon '' ( 四 人 の 竜 ( ドラゴン ) ) March 23 , 2013 September 1 , 2015 The tag battle continues , with Sting and Rogue beginning to attack Natsu and Gajeel with their powers being increased . After receiving heavy blows from the Saber Tooth Dragon Slayers , Natsu and Gajeel manages to hold them off , thus forcing Sting and Rogue to activate `` Dragon Force '' on their own will , to the shock of the Fairy Tail audience . Sting decides to finish the Fairy Tail Dragon Slayers alone , for he held a promise to his Exceed friend Lector many years ago . As the three mages fight , the tide turns in favor of Sting as he unleashes a powerful attack on Natsu and Gajeel , resulting in the collapse of the arena floor , and after a hand - to - hand combat underground , Sting was seemingly the victor of the match . However , the Fairy Tail duo stands up , comments on Sting 's strength , and argues about his position while attacking , thereby causing Natsu to drag Gajeel on a mining cart and send it away . While Gajeel is left incapacitated due to motion sickness , Natsu challenges the Twin Dragons of Saber Tooth alone , in retribution to what Sting did earlier on them . 175 `` Natsu vs. the Twin Dragons '' `` Natsu vs. Sōryū '' ( ナツ vs. 双竜 ) March 30 , 2013 September 1 , 2015 The tag battle of the Dragon Slayers comes to a close , with Natsu overpowering the combined attacks of Sting and Rogue . The Saber Tooth members watch in dismay , while Jiemma seethes in anger over the defeat of the Twin Dragons , frightening the nearby spectators away . The rest of Fairy Tail celebrates in joy as its team receives 10 points , finally surpassing Team Saber Tooth by a single point . Meanwhile , Gajeel , back to his senses after being dragged by Natsu into a cart earlier , stumbles upon a cave full of dragon skeletons . During that night , Jellal manages to corner the source of the dark aura , standing in disbelief at the identity of the mysterious , hooded person .

Standard deviation 16.87 13.80 9.97 3.41 Blood group B has its highest frequency in South Asia where it ranks first as the largest share of the earth 's population . In Southeast Asia the share of the population is high , especially in Thailand and Indonesia , then in East Asia , Northern Asia and neighboring Central Asia , and its incidence diminishes both towards the east and the west , falling to single digit percentages in Netherlands , Norway , Portugal and Switzerland . It is believed to have been entirely absent from Native American and Australian Aboriginal populations prior to the arrival of Europeans in those areas . Blood group A is associated with high frequencies in Europe , especially in Scandinavia and Central Europe , although its highest frequencies occur in some Australian Aboriginal populations and the Blackfoot Indians of Montana , the US .

The White Sox swept the Astros four games to none in the series , played between October 22 to 26 , winning their third World Series championship and their first in 88 seasons . Although the series was a sweep , all four games were quite close , being decided by two runs or fewer . Home - field advantage was awarded to Chicago by virtue of the American League 's 7 -- 5 victory over the National League in the Major League Baseball All - Star Game . The Astros were attempting to become the fourth consecutive wild card team to win the Series , following the Anaheim Angels ( 2002 ) , Florida Marlins ( 2003 ) and Boston Red Sox ( 2004 ) . Both teams were attempting to overcome decades of disappointment , with a combined 132 years between the two teams without a title . The Astros were making their first Series appearance in 44 years of play , while the White Sox had waited exactly twice as long for a title , having last won the Series in 1917 , and had not been in the Series since 1959 , three years before the Astros ' inaugural season . Like the 1982 World Series between the St. Louis Cardinals and the Milwaukee Brewers , the 2005 World Series is one of only two World Series in the modern era ( 1903 -- present ) with no possibility for a rematch between the two opponents , because the Astros moved to the American League in 2013 . However , the Brewers did meet the Cardinals in the 2011 National League Championship Series .

After starting the season on a tear , the White Sox began to fade in August , when a 15 ⁄ game lead fell all the way to 1 ⁄ . However , the Sox were able to hold off the Cleveland Indians to win the American League Central Division by six games , sweeping Cleveland in three games on the season 's final weekend . In the Division Series , the White Sox swept the defending champion Boston Red Sox . The League Championship Series began with the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim winning Game 1 , but a controversial uncaught third strike in Game 2 helped the Sox start a run and win Games 2 -- 5 , all on complete games pitched by starters Mark Buehrle , Jon Garland , Freddy García , and José Contreras , clinching their first American League pennant in 46 years . Frank Thomas throws out the ceremonial first pitch of the 2005 ALDS between the White Sox and Red Sox . Manager Ozzie Guillén then led the White Sox to a World Series victory , their first in 88 years . Slugger Frank Thomas was not on the post-season roster because he was injured , but the team honored his perennial contributions to the franchise during Game 1 of the Division Series against the Boston Red Sox when he was chosen to throw out the ceremonial first pitch . `` What a feeling , '' Thomas said . `` Standing O all around the place . People really cheering me . I had tears in my eyes . To really know the fans cared that much about me -- it was a great feeling . One of my proudest moments in the game . '' Houston Astros ( edit ) Main article : 2005 Houston Astros season The Houston Astros won the Wild Card for the second straight year , once again clinching it on the final day of the season . The Astros embarked on a memorable Division Series rematch against the Atlanta Braves . With the Astros in the lead two games to one , the teams played an eighteen - inning marathon in Game 4 , which was the longest ( in both time and innings played ) postseason game in history . In this game , Roger Clemens made only the second relief appearance of his career , and the first in postseason play . Chris Burke 's walk - off home run ended the game in the bottom of the eighteenth . For the second straight year , the Astros played the St. Louis Cardinals in the League Championship Series . Like the White Sox , the Astros dropped Game 1 , but were able to regroup and win Games 2 -- 4 . With the Astros on the verge of clinching their first ever National League pennant in Game 5 , Albert Pujols hit a mammoth three - run home run off Brad Lidge in the top of the ninth inning to take the lead , and subsequently stave off elimination . However , behind NLCS MVP Roy Oswalt , the Astros were able to defeat the Cards 5 -- 1 in Game 6 and earned a trip to the World Series . This was the Astros ' first World Series appearance in franchise history . Matchups ( edit ) Game 1 ( edit ) Saturday , October 22 , 2005 7 : 05 pm ( CDT ) at U.S. Cellular Field in Chicago , Illinois Team 5 6 7 8 9 Houston 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 7 Chicago 0 0 0 0 X 5 10 0 WP : José Contreras ( 1 -- 0 ) LP : Wandy Rodríguez ( 0 -- 1 ) Sv : Bobby Jenks ( 1 ) Home runs : HOU : Mike Lamb ( 1 ) CWS : Jermaine Dye ( 1 ) , Joe Crede ( 1 ) The teams on the field before Game 1 . Playing in their first World Series home game since 1959 , the White Sox took an early lead with a home run from Jermaine Dye in the first inning . After Mike Lamb 's home run tied the game in the second , the Sox scored two more in the second when Juan Uribe doubled in A.J. Pierzynski after Carl Everett had already scored on a ground - out earlier in the inning . The Astros responded in the next inning when Lance Berkman hit a double , driving in Adam Everett and Craig Biggio . In the White Sox half of the fourth , Joe Crede hit what turned out to be the game - winning home run . In the bottom of the eighth , Scott Podsednik hit a triple with Pierzynski on second off of Russ Springer for an insurance run . Roger Clemens recorded his shortest World Series start , leaving after the second inning with 53 pitches , including 35 for strikes , due to a sore hamstring that he had previously injured ( which had caused him to also miss his last regular season start ) as the loss went to Wandy Rodríguez . José Contreras pitched seven innings , allowing three runs on six hits for the win . Before exiting , Contreras allowed a leadoff double by Willie Taveras with no outs . Neal Cotts entered the game in the top of the eighth inning . It marked the first time in five games that the White Sox had gone to their bullpen . Cotts pitched ⁄ innings before Bobby Jenks was called upon by manager Ozzie Guillén to relieve him . Guillen signaled for the large pitcher by holding his arms out wide and then up high . In the postgame conference , the Sox manager joked that he wanted to be clear he was asking for `` The Big Boy . '' Jenks returned in the ninth to earn the save , giving the White Sox a 1 -- 0 lead in the series . Game 2 ( edit ) Sunday , October 23 , 2005 7 : 16 pm ( CDT ) at U.S. Cellular Field in Chicago , Illinois Team 5 6 7 8 9 Houston 0 0 0 0 0 6 9 0 Chicago 0 0 0 0 0 0 7 12 0 WP : Neal Cotts ( 1 -- 0 ) LP : Brad Lidge ( 0 -- 1 ) Home runs : HOU : Morgan Ensberg ( 1 ) CWS : Paul Konerko ( 1 ) , Scott Podsednik ( 1 ) On a miserably cold ( 51 ° F ( 11 ° C ) ) and rainy evening , Morgan Ensberg 's first - pitch home run off starter Mark Buehrle put the Astros on top in the second inning . The White Sox answered in the bottom of the second with two runs off Andy Pettitte on Joe Crede 's RBI single with two on and Juan Uribe 's sacrifice fly . Houston 's Lance Berkman tied the game on a sacrifice fly in the third after a one - out triple , then hit a two - run double in the fifth to give the Astros a 4 -- 2 lead . In the seventh , Dan Wheeler loaded the bases with a double by Juan Uribe , a walk to Tadahito Iguchi , and plate umpire Jeff Nelson 's ruling that Jermaine Dye was hit by a pitched ball . The Astros brought in Chad Qualls , who promptly served up a grand slam to Paul Konerko on his first pitch , the 18th grand slam in the annals of the Fall Classic . In the top of the ninth , Sox closer Bobby Jenks blew the save on a game - tying pinch - hit single by José Vizcaíno . In the bottom of the ninth , Astros closer Brad Lidge gave up a one - out , walk - off home run -- the 14th in Series history -- to Scott Podsednik , giving Lidge his second loss in as many post-season appearances ( his previous appearance was in Game 5 of 2005 National League Championship Series ) . Podsednik had not hit a single homer in the regular season , but this was his second of the post-season . This was the second time in World Series history where a grand slam and a walk - off home run were hit in the same game . The Oakland A 's Jose Canseco ( grand slam ) and the Los Angeles Dodgers ' Kirk Gibson ( walk - off ) in Game 1 of the 1988 World Series were the first to do it . Never before had a World Series grand slam and a World Series walk - off home run been hit by the same team in the same game . Game 3 ( edit ) Tuesday , October 25 , 2005 7 : 39 pm ( CDT ) at Minute Maid Park in Houston , Texas Team 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 Chicago 0 0 0 0 5 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 7 14 Houston 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 5 8 WP : Dámaso Marte ( 1 -- 0 ) LP : Ezequiel Astacio ( 0 -- 1 ) Sv : Mark Buehrle ( 1 ) Home runs : CWS : Joe Crede ( 2 ) , Geoff Blum ( 1 ) HOU : Jason Lane ( 1 ) Game 3 was the first World Series game played in the state of Texas . Before the game , it was ruled by Commissioner Bud Selig that the retractable roof would be open at Minute Maid Park , weather permitting . The Astros objected , citing that their record in games with the roof closed was better than with the retractable roof open . Selig 's office claimed that the ruling was based on the rules established by Houston and were consistent with how the Astros organization treated the situation all year long , as well as the weather forecasts for that period of time . The game would become the longest World Series game in length of time ( 5 hours and 41 minutes ) and tied for the longest in number of innings ( 14 , tied with Game 2 of the 1916 World Series and Game 1 of the 2015 World Series ) . Houston struck early on a Lance Berkman single after a Craig Biggio lead - off double in the bottom of the first off Chicago starter Jon Garland . A White Sox rally was snuffed in the second inning ; after Paul Konerko hit a leadoff double and A.J. Pierzynski walked , Aaron Rowand lined out into a double play . Houston scored in the third ; Adam Everett walked , was caught in a rundown and got hit by the ball on a Juan Uribe throwing error , then scored on a Roy Oswalt sacrifice bunt and a Biggio single . Two batters later , Morgan Ensberg singled Biggio home . Jason Lane led off the Astros ' fourth with a home run to left - center field . It was later shown in replays that the ball should not have been ruled a home run , hitting to the left of the yellow line on the unusual wall in left - center field . The White Sox rallied in the top of the fifth , true to their `` Win Or Die Trying '' mantra of 2005 , starting with a Joe Crede lead - off homer . Uribe , on first after hitting a single , scored on a Tadahito Iguchi base hit with one out , followed by Scott Podsednik coming home on a single by Jermaine Dye . Pierzynski hit a two - out double to Tal 's Hill , driving in two runs , scoring Iguchi and Dye giving the Sox the lead . The Astros rallied in the last of the eighth with two outs when Lane 's double scored Ensberg with the tying run after back - to - back walks by Ensberg and Mike Lamb , giving Dustin Hermanson a blown save . Houston tried to rally to win in the ninth , but stranded Chris Burke at third , after he had walked , reached second on an error and stolen third . The Astros tried again in the 10th as well as in the 11th , but failed each time . In the top of the 14th , after the Sox hit into a spectacular double play started by Ensberg , Geoff Blum ( a former Astro and the Astros ' television color analyst as of 2015 ) , who had entered the game in the 13th , homered to right with two outs off Ezequiel Astacio . Infield singles by Rowand and Crede were followed by walks to Uribe and Chris Widger . Trailing 7 - 5 , Houston tried to rally with the tying runs on first and third and two outs after a Uribe error . Game 2 starter Mark Buehrle earned the save for winning pitcher Dámaso Marte when Everett popped out , bringing Chicago one game closer to its first championship in 88 years . Buehrle became the first pitcher to start a game in the Series and save the next one since Bob Turley of the Yankees in the 1958 World Series . Many records were set or tied besides time and innings : The teams combined to use 17 pitchers ( nine for the White Sox , eight for the Astros ) , throwing a total of 482 pitches , and walking 21 batters ( a dozen by Chicago , nine by Houston ) ; 43 players were used ( the White Sox used 22 and the Astros used 21 ) , and 30 men were left on base ( 15 for each team ) , all new high - water marks in Fall Classic history . Scott Podsednik set a new all - time record with eight official at - bats in this game . One tied record was total double plays , with six ( four by the Astros , two by the White Sox ) . Game 4 ( edit ) Wednesday , October 26 , 2005 7 : 41 pm ( CDT ) at Minute Maid Park in Houston , Texas Team 5 6 7 8 9 Chicago 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 8 0 Houston 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 5 0 WP : Freddy García ( 1 -- 0 ) LP : Brad Lidge ( 0 -- 2 ) Sv : Bobby Jenks ( 2 ) Before the game , Major League Baseball unveiled its Latino Legends Team . The fourth game was the pitchers ' duel that had been promised throughout the series . Both Houston starter Brandon Backe and Chicago starter Freddy García put zeros on the scoreboard through seven innings , the longest Series scoreless stretch since Game 7 of the 1991 World Series . Scott Podsednik had a two - out triple in the top of the third , but a Tadahito Iguchi groundout ended that threat . The Astros wasted a chance in the sixth , Jason Lane striking out with the bases loaded . The White Sox in the top of the seventh put runners at second and third , but shortstop Juan Uribe struck out to end the inning . Chicago broke through in the next inning against embattled Houston closer Brad Lidge . Willie Harris hit a pinch - hit single . Podsednik advanced him with a sacrifice bunt . Carl Everett pinch - hit for Iguchi and grounded out to the right side to allow Harris to move to third . Jermaine Dye , the Most Valuable Player of the series , had the game - winning single , driving in Harris . Things got a little sticky for the Sox in the Astros half of the eighth when reliever Cliff Politte hit Willy Taveras , threw a wild pitch , sending Taveras to second , and walked Lance Berkman . After Morgan Ensberg flew out to center , the White Sox manager Ozzie Guillén brought in Neal Cotts to finish the inning . Cotts induced pinch - hitter José Vizcaíno into a ground out to Uribe . Bobby Jenks , the 24 - year - old fireballer , started the ninth inning . He allowed a single to Jason Lane and a sacrifice bunt to Brad Ausmus . Chris Burke came in to pinch - hit ; he fouled one off to the left side , but Uribe made an amazing catch in the stands to retire Burke . The game ended when Orlando Palmeiro grounded to Uribe . It was a bang - bang play as Paul Konerko caught the ball from Uribe at 11 : 01 pm CDT to begin the biggest celebration in Chicago since the sixth NBA championship by the Bulls , co-owned with the White Sox , in 1998 . As a result , Jerry Reinsdorf , owner of both teams , had won seven championships overall . This game would be the last playoff game for the Astros as a member of the NL , as they would move to the AL in 2013 , and not appear in a playoff game until the 2015 American League Wild Card Game . The last two Series games technically ended on the same day , Game 3 having concluded after midnight , Houston time . The 1 -- 0 shutout was the first game with a total of one run scored to end a World Series since the 1995 World Series , in which Game 6 was won by the Atlanta Braves over the Cleveland Indians , and the first 1 -- 0 game in any Series game since Game 5 of the 1996 World Series when the New York Yankees shut - out the Braves in the last game ever played at Atlanta -- Fulton County Stadium . The 2005 White Sox joined the 1995 Atlanta Braves and 1999 New York Yankees as the only teams to win a World Series after losing no more than one game combined in the Division Series and Championship Series . This was the second consecutive World Series to be won by a team that has the word `` Sox '' in its nickname , after the Boston Red Sox won the 2004 World Series against the St. Louis Cardinals . This also happened in 1917 and 1918 . Furthermore , it was the second year in a row in which the Series champions broke a long - lived `` curse . '' In one of those ways that patterns appear to emerge in sporting events , the White Sox World Series win in 2005 , along with the Boston Red Sox win in 2004 , symmetrically bookended the two teams ' previous World Series winners and the long gaps between , with the Red Sox and White Sox last Series wins having come in 1918 and 1917 , respectively .

Joe Buck provided play - by - play for his eighth World Series while analyst Tim McCarver worked his sixteenth . ESPN Radio was the nationwide radio broadcaster , as it had been since 1998 . Jon Miller and Joe Morgan provided the play - by - play and analysis . Locally , KTRH - AM and WMVP were the primary carriers for the World Series in the Houston and Chicago markets . For KTRH long time Astros voice Milo Hamilton provided play - by - play while John Rooney called the games for the White Sox . Game 4 was Rooney 's last call after seventeen years as the radio voice of the White Sox , as he left to take the same position with the St. Louis Cardinals . The Cardinals proceeded to win the 2006 World Series , making Rooney the first home announcer to call back - to - back World Series wins for two different teams . That the teams were in two different leagues makes the feat even more unusual . Ratings ( edit ) The ratings for the 2005 World Series were considered weak . With an overall average of 11.1 , 2005 set a record for the lowest rated World Series of all - time . The prior lowest was 11.9 , set by the 2002 World Series between the San Francisco Giants and the Anaheim Angels ( importantly , this series went 7 games , and the 2005 Series went 4 ) . Following the 2005 World Series , however , every subsequent Series through 2013 except for 2009 produced lower ratings . The record - low 2012 World Series , another four - game sweep , averaged 7.6 ( 3.5 points lower than 2005 's rating ) and 12.7 million viewers ( 4.4 million fewer viewers than 2005 ) . Game Ratings ( households ) Share ( households ) American audience ( in millions ) 9.5 17 15.0 11.1 17 17.19 11.0 21 16.65 13.0 21 19.98 Aftermath ( edit ) Neither team advanced to the post-season in 2006 , but the 2006 World Series again featured teams from the American League Central and National League Central divisions , this time represented by the Detroit Tigers and the St. Louis Cardinals , respectively . The Cardinals won the World Series in five games , in which manager Tony La Russa became the second manager to win the World Series in both American and National leagues , previously managing the Oakland Athletics to the 1989 World Series championship . Both the White Sox and the Astros were in the Wild Card race until the final weeks of the season , with the White Sox finishing with 90 wins , the Astros with 82 wins . The White Sox made their first post-2005 playoff appearance in 2008 , while the Astros would not return to the postseason until 2015 , their third season as an American League team and would not return to the World Series until 2017 , their fifth season as an American League team . October 28 , 2005 Parade This was the city of Chicago 's first professional sports championship since the Chicago Fire won MLS Cup ' 98 ( which came four months after the Chicago Bulls ' sixth NBA championship that year ) . The next major Chicago sports championship came in 2010 , when the NHL 's Chicago Blackhawks ended a 49 - year Stanley Cup title drought . With the Chicago Bears ' win in Super Bowl XX and the Chicago Cubs ' own World Series championship in 2016 , all Chicago sports teams have won at least one major championship since 1985 . Meanwhile , the Astros themselves made it back to the World Series in 2017 , but this time as an AL team , where they defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers in seven games , resulting in Houston 's first professional sports championship since the 2006 -- 07 Houston Dynamo won their back - to - back MLS Championships .

Minimum wage in the United States - wikipedia Minimum wage in the United States Jump to : navigation , search Minimum wage by U.S. state and territory , as of January 1 , 2018 . Versus the federal rate : Higher Same Lower No state minimum wage law The minimum wage in the United States is set by US labor law and a range of state and local laws . Employers generally have to pay workers the highest minimum wage prescribed by federal , state , and local law . Since July 24 , 2009 , the federal government has mandated a nationwide minimum wage of $7.25 per hour . As of January 2018 , there were 29 states with a minimum wage higher than the federal minimum . From 2017 to 2018 , eight states increased their minimum wage levels through automatic adjustments , while increases in eleven other states occurred through referendum or legislative action . Washington has the highest state minimum wage at $11.50 per hour . Using 2017 inflation - adjusted dollars , the federal minimum wage peaked at $11.53 per hour in 1968 . If the minimum wage in 1968 had kept up with labor 's productivity growth , it would have reached $19.33 in 2017 . There is a racial difference for support of a higher minimum wage with most black and Hispanic individuals supporting a $15.00 federal minimum wage , and 54 % of whites opposing it . In 2015 , about three percent of white , Asian , and Hispanic or Latino workers earned the federal minimum wage or less . Among black workers , the percentage was about four percent .

President Franklin Delano Roosevelt , 1933 Minimum wage legislation emerged at the end of the nineteenth century from the desire to end sweated labor which had developed in the wake of industrialization . Sweatshops employed large numbers of women and young workers , paying them what were considered nonliving wages that did not allow workers to afford the necessaries of life . Besides substandard wages , sweating was also associated with long work hours and unsanitary work conditions . From the 1890s to the 1920s , during the Progressive Era , a time of social activists and political reform across the United States , progressive reformers , women 's organizations , religious figures , academics , and politicians all played an important role in getting state minimum wage laws passed throughout the United States . The first successful attempts at using minimum wage laws to ameliorate the problem of nonliving wages occurred in the Australian state of Victoria in 1896 . Factory inspector reports and newspaper reporting on the conditions of sweated labor in Melbourne , Victoria led in 1895 to the formation of the National Anti-Sweating League which pushed the government aggressively to deal legislatively with the problem of substandard wages . The government , following the recommendation of the Victorian Chief Secretary Alexander Peacock , established wage boards which were tasked with establishing minimum wages in the labor trades which suffered from nonlivable wages . During the same time period , campaigns against sweated labor were occurring in the United States and England . In the United States in 1890 , a group of concerned female reformers who wanted to improve the harsh conditions of sweated workers formed the Consumer 's League of the City of New York . The consumer group sought to improve working conditions by boycotting products which were made under sweated conditions and did not conform to a code of `` fair house '' standards drawn up by them . Similar , consumer leagues formed throughout the United States , and in 1899 , they united under the National Consumer League ( NCL ) parent organization . Consumer advocacy , however , was extremely slow at changing conditions in the sweated industries . When NCL leaders in 1908 went to an international anti-sweatshop conference in Geneva , Switzerland and were introduced to Australian minimum wage legislation , which had successfully dealt with sweated labor , they came home believers and made minimum wage legislation part of their national platform . 20th century ( edit ) In 1910 , in conjunction with advocacy work led by Florence Kelley of the National Consumer League , the Women 's Trade Union League ( WTLU ) of Massachusetts under the leadership of Elizabeth Evans took up the cause of minimum wage legislation in Massachusetts . Over the next two years , a coalition of social reform groups and labor advocates in Boston pushed for minimum wage legislation in the state . In 1912 , Massachusetts passed the first American minimum wage legislation , which established a state commission for recommending non-compulsory minimum wages for women and children . Within eight years , at least thirteen U.S. states and the District of Columbia would pass minimum wage laws , with pressure being placed on state legislatures by the National Consumers League in a coalition with other women 's voluntary associations and organized labor . The United States Supreme Court of the Lochner era consistently invalidated compulsory minimum wage laws . Advocates for these minimum wage laws hoped that they would be upheld under the precedent of Muller v. Oregon , which upheld maximum working hours laws for women on the grounds that women required special protection that men did not . However , the Court did not extend this principle to minimum wage laws , considering the latter as interfering with the ability of employers to freely negotiate wage contracts with employees . In 1933 , the Roosevelt administration made the first attempt at establishing a national minimum wage , when a $0.25 per hour standard was set as part of the National Industrial Recovery Act . However , in the 1935 court case Schechter Poultry Corp. v. United States ( 295 U.S. 495 ) , the US Supreme Court declared the act unconstitutional , and the minimum wage was abolished . In 1938 , the minimum wage was re-established pursuant to the Fair Labor Standards Act , once again at $0.25 per hour ( $4.78 in 2017 dollars ) . In 1941 , the Supreme Court upheld the Fair Labor Standards Act in United States v. Darby Lumber Co. , holding that Congress had the power under the Commerce Clause to regulate employment conditions . The 1938 minimum wage law only applied to `` employees engaged in interstate commerce or in the production of goods for interstate commerce , '' but in amendments in 1961 and 1966 , the federal minimum wage was extended ( with slightly different rates ) to employees in large retail and service enterprises , local transportation and construction , state and local government employees , as well as other smaller expansions ; a grandfather clause in 1990 drew most employees into the purview of federal minimum wage policy , which now set the wage at $3.80 . 21st century ( edit ) Legislation ( edit ) Play media An opinion video from the Economic Policy Institute about working for the tipped minimum wage of $2.13 per hour . In 2006 , voters in six states ( Arizona , Colorado , Missouri , Montana , Nevada , and Ohio ) approved statewide increases in the state minimum wage . The amounts of these increases ranged from $1 to $1.70 per hour and all increases were designed to annually index to inflation . Some politicians in the United States have advocated linking the minimum wage to the Consumer Price Index , thereby increasing the wage automatically each year based on increases to the Consumer Price Index . So far , Ohio , Oregon , Missouri , Vermont and Washington have linked their minimum wages to the consumer price index . Minimum wage indexing also takes place each year in Florida , San Francisco , California , and Santa Fe , New Mexico . The federal minimum wage in the United States was reset to its current rate of $7.25 per hour in July 2009 . Some U.S. territories ( such as American Samoa ) are exempt . Some types of labor are also exempt : employers may pay tipped labor a minimum of $2.13 per hour , as long as the hour wage plus tip income equals at least the minimum wage . Persons under the age of 20 may be paid $4.25 an hour for the first 90 calendar days of employment ( sometimes known as a youth , teen , or training wage ) unless a higher state minimum exists . The 2009 increase was the last of three steps of the Fair Minimum Wage Act of 2007 , which was signed into law as a rider to the U.S. Troop Readiness , Veterans ' Care , Katrina Recovery , and Iraq Accountability Appropriations Act , 2007 , a bill that also contained almost $5 billion in tax cuts for small businesses . Living wage protests ( edit ) Since 2012 , a growing protest and advocacy movement called `` Fight for $15 '' , initially growing out of fast food worker strikes , has advocated for an increase in the minimum wage to a living wage . On March 27 , 2014 , Connecticut passed legislation to raise the minimum wage from $8.70 to $10.10 per hour by 2017 , making it one of about six states to aim at or above $10.00 per hour . In 2014 and 2015 , several cities , including San Francisco , Seattle , Los Angeles , and Washington passed ordinances that gradually increase the minimum wage to $15.00 per hour . In 2016 , New York and California passed legislation that would gradually raise the minimum wage to $15 per hour in each state . Living wage to cover basic needs in select U.S. cities ( 2016 ) City Living wage New Orleans $14.51 Houston $14.55 Cleveland $14.77 Atlanta $15.43 Tampa $15.78 United States $15.85 Philadelphia $15.98 Boston $17.27 Los Angeles $17.70 New York City $20.08 San Francisco $20.32 In April 2014 , the U.S. Senate debated the Minimum Wage Fairness Act ( S. 1737 ; 113th Congress ) . The bill would have amended the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 ( FLSA ) to increase the federal minimum wage for employees to $10.10 per hour over the course of a two - year period . The bill was strongly supported by President Barack Obama and many of the Democratic Senators , but strongly opposed by Republicans in the Senate and House . Later in 2014 , voters in the Republican - controlled states of Alaska , Arkansas , Nebraska and South Dakota considered ballot initiatives to raise the minimum wage above the national rate of $7.25 per hour , which were successful in all four states . The results provided evidence that raising minimum wage has support across party lines . In April 2017 , Senator Bernie Sanders and Senator Patty Murray , backed by 28 of the Senate 's Democrats , introduced new legislation which would raise the minimum wage to $15 per hour by 2024 and index it to inflation . The Raise the Wage Act of 2017 , which was simultaneously introduced in the House of Representatives with 166 Democratic cosponsors , would raise the minimum wage to $9.25 immediately , and then gradually increase it to $15 by 2024 , while simultaneously raising the minimum wage for tipped workers and phasing it out . The legislation was introduced according to Senator Bernie Sanders to make sure that every worker has at least a modest and decent standard of living . As of 2017 , recent legislation passed in multiple states that raised the minimum wage a certain amount in a certain time . California is set to raise their minimum wage to $15.00 per hour by January 1 , 2023 . Colorado is set to raise their minimum wage from $9.30 per hour to $12 per hour by January 1 , 2020 , raising $0.90 per year . Seattle passed legislation in 2015 for a raise in minimum wage . For employers of 500 or more employees without health benefits , the minimum wage rose to $15.00 per hour in 2017 . For employees with health benefits , the minimum wage will raise to $15.00 per hour by 2018 . For smaller employees , the $15.00 per hour wage takes effect at different times . Seattle is one of the first cities with a plan that after the minimum $15.00 per hour wage takes effect , they increase minimum wage by a certain percentage every year based on inflation . New York has also recently passed legislation to increase their minimum wage to $15.00 per hour over time , certain counties and larger companies are set on faster plans than others . As there have only been a few places mentioned , cities and states across the United States are putting in place certain legislation to increase the minimum wage for minimum wage workers to a livable wage . Local ordinances ( edit ) On June 2 , 2014 , the City Council of Seattle , Washington was the first city to pass a local ordinance to increase the minimum wage of the city to $15.00 per hour , which will be phased in over seven years , to be fully implemented by 2021 . Numerous cities have followed Seattle 's example since . San Francisco is expected to become the first U.S. city to reach a minimum wage of $15.00 per hour on July 1 , 2018 . New York City 's minimum wage will be $15.00 per hour by the end of 2018 . The minimum wage in Los Angeles and Washington , D.C. , will be $15.00 per hour in 2020 . A growing number of California cities have enacted local minimum wage ordinances , including Los Angeles , San Francisco , Oakland , Berkeley , Emeryville , Mountain View , Richmond , and San Jose . In September 2014 , the Los Angeles City Council approved a minimum salary for hotel workers of $15.37 per hour . In April 2016 , The Los Angeles Times reported that there is an exemption for unionised workers , and interviewed longtime workers at unionised Sheraton Universal who make $10.00 per hour , whereas non-union employees at a non-union Hilton less than 500 feet away make at least the $15.37 mandated by law for non-unionised employees . Similar exemptions have been adopted in San Francisco , San Jose , Oakland , and Santa Monica . On August 18 , 2015 , the El Cerrito City Council directed city staff to draft a local minimum wage ordinance based on a template provided by a coalition for a county - wide minimum wage effort . The details are not final , but the Council discussed an initial increase of roughly 28 -- 36 % ( $11.52 -- $12.25 or more ) by January 1 , 2016 , with annual increases that will result in a $15.00 hourly wage rate by 2018 -- 2020 . The Council did not direct staff to create small business exemptions ( or any other exemptions ) , but a slower phase - in rate may be considered for employees of small businesses . The city will have outreach for residents and business owners to discuss details of the proposed ordinance . Staff hopes to present a draft for The Council 's approval as early as October or November 2015 . Union exemptions ( edit ) As of December 2014 , unions were exempt from recent minimum wage increases in Chicago , Illinois , SeaTac , Washington , and Milwaukee County , Wisconsin , as well as the California cities of Los Angeles , San Francisco , Long Beach , San Jose , Richmond , and Oakland . In 2016 , the Washington , D.C. Council passed a minimum wage ordinance that included a union waiver , but Mayor Vincent Gray vetoed it . Later that year , the council approved an increase without the union waiver . Trends in purchasing power ( edit ) History of the federal minimum wage in real 2013 dollars and nominal dollars Since its inception the purchasing power of the minimum wage has fluctuated . The minimum wage had its highest purchasing power in 1968 , when it was $1.60 per hour ( $11.49 in 2017 dollars ) . From January 1981 to April 1990 , the minimum wage was frozen at $3.35 per hour , then a record - setting minimum wage freeze . From September 1 , 1997 through July 23 , 2007 , the federal minimum wage remained constant at $5.15 per hour , breaking the old record . From the United States Department of Labor . Employment Standards Administration . Wage and Hour Division , the source page has a clickable US map with current and projected state - by - state minimum wage rates for each state . Some government entities , such as counties and cities , observe minimum wages that are higher than the state as a whole . One notable example of this is Santa Fe , New Mexico , whose $9.50 per hour minimum wage was the highest in the nation , until San Francisco increased its minimum wage to $9.79 in 2009 . Another device to increase wages , living wage ordinances , generally apply only to businesses that are under contract to the local government itself . Since 1984 , the purchasing power of the federal minimum wage has decreased . Measured in real terms ( adjusted for inflation ) using 1984 dollars , the real minimum wage was $3.35 in 1984 , $2.33 in 1994 , $1.84 in 2004 , and $1.46 in 2014 . If the minimum wage had been raised to $10.10 in 2014 , that would have equated to $4.40 in 1984 dollars . This would have been equal to a 31 % increase in purchasing power , despite the nominal value of the minimum wage increasing by 216 % in the same time period . Economic effects ( edit ) The economic effects of raising the minimum wage are controversial . Adjusting the minimum wage may affect current and future levels of employment , prices of goods and services , economic growth , income inequality , and poverty . The interconnection of price levels , central bank policy , wage agreements , and total aggregate demand creates a situation in which conclusions drawn from macroeconomic analysis are highly influenced by the underlying assumptions of the interpreter . Employment and job creation ( edit ) Further information : Unemployment in the United States CBO table with projections of the effects of minimum wage increases on employment and income , under two scenarios In neoclassical economics , the law of demand states that -- all else being equal -- raising the price of any particular good or service reduces the quantity demanded . Therefore , neoclassical economists argue that -- all else being equal -- raising the minimum wage will have adverse effects on employment . Conceptually , if an employer does not believe a worker generates value equal to or in excess of the minimum wage , they do not hire or retain that worker . Other economists of different schools of thought argue that a limited increase in the minimum wage does not affect or increases the number of jobs available . Economist David Cooper for instance estimates that a higher minimum wage would support the creation of at least 85,000 new jobs in the United States . This divergence of thought began with empirical work on fast food workers in the 1990s which challenged the neoclassical model . In 1994 , economists David Card and Alan Krueger studied employment trends among 410 restaurants in New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania following New Jersey 's minimum wage hike ( from $4.25 to $5.05 ) in April 1992 . They found `` no indication that the rise in the minimum wage reduced employment . '' In contrast , a 1995 analysis of the evidence by David Neumark found that the increase in New Jersey 's minimum wage resulted in a 4.6 % decrease in employment . Neumark 's study relied on payroll records from a sample of large fast - food restaurant chains , whereas the Card - Krueger study relied on business surveys . A literature review conducted by David Neumark and William Wascher in 2007 ( which surveyed 101 studies related to the employment effects of minimum wages ) found that about two - thirds of peer - reviewed economic research showed a positive correlation between minimum wage hikes and increased unemployment -- especially for young and unskilled workers . Neumark 's analysis further found that , when looking at only the most credible research , 85 % of studies showed a positive correlation between minimum wage hikes and increased unemployment . Neumark was also part of a study that compared areas that have received minimum wage hikes that were in proximity to each other and areas that are farther apart and they concluded that there is always net job loss experienced . In 2005 , T.D. Stanley showed that Card and Krueger 's results could signify either publication bias or the absence of a minimum wage effect . However , using a different methodology , Stanley concluded that there is evidence of publication bias and that correction of this bias shows no relationship between the minimum wage and unemployment . In 2008 , Hristos Doucouliagos and T.D. Stanley conducted a similar meta - analysis of 64 U.S. studies on disemployment effects and concluded that Card and Krueger 's initial claim of publication bias is still correct . Moreover , they concluded , `` Once this publication selection is corrected , little or no evidence of a negative association between minimum wages and employment remains . '' In 2013 , a meta - analysis of 16 U.K. studies found that the minimum wage has no significant effects on employment . Estimated minimum wage effects on employment from a meta - study of 64 other studies showed insignificant employment effect ( both practically and statistically ) from minimum - wage raises . The most precise estimates were heavily clustered at or near zero employment effects ( elasticity = 0 ) . The Congressional Budget Office ( CBO ) in 2014 estimated the theoretical effects of a federal minimum wage increase under two scenarios : an increase to $9.00 and an increase to $10.10 . According to the report , approximately 100,000 jobs would be lost under the $9.00 option , whereas 500,000 jobs would be lost under the $10.10 option ( with a wide range of possible outcomes ) . A 2013 Center for Economic and Policy Research ( CEPR ) review of multiple studies since 2000 indicated that there was `` little or no employment response to modest increases in the minimum wage . '' Another CEPR study in 2014 found that job creation within the United States is faster within states that raised their minimum wage . In 2014 , the state with the highest minimum wage in the nation , Washington , exceeded the national average for job growth in the United States . Washington had a job growth rate 0.3 % faster than the national average job growth rate . A 2012 study led by Joseph Sabia estimated that the 2004 - 6 New York State minimum wage increase ( from $5.15 to $6.75 ) resulted in a 20.2 % to 21.8 % reduction in employment for less - skilled , less - educated workers . Another study by Sabia in 2008 concluded that a 10 % increase in the minimum wage was associated with an 8.8 % reduction in employment and an 11.8 % reduction in hours for uneducated single mothers . A study led by Richard Burkhauser in 2000 concluded that minimum wage increases `` significantly reduce the employment of the most vulnerable groups in the working - age population -- young adults without a high school degree ( aged 20 - 24 ) , young black adults and teenagers ( aged 16 - 24 ) , and teenagers ( aged 16 - 19 ) . '' A 2007 study by Daniel Aaronson and Eric French concluded that a 10 % increase in the minimum wage decreased low - skill employment by 2 - 4 % and total restaurant employment by 1 - 3 % . The Economist wrote in December 2013 : `` A minimum wage , providing it is not set too high , could thus boost pay with no ill effects on jobs ... Some studies find no harm to employment from federal or state minimum wages , others see a small one , but none finds any serious damage ... High minimum wages , however , particularly in rigid labour markets , do appear to hit employment . France has the rich world 's highest wage floor , at more than 60 % of the median for adults and a far bigger fraction of the typical wage for the young . This helps explain why France also has shockingly high rates of youth unemployment : 26 % for 15 - to 24 - year - olds . '' Prices ( edit ) Conceptually , raising the minimum wage increases the cost of labor , ceteris paribus . Thus , employers may accept lower profits , raise their prices , or both . If prices increase , consumers may demand a lesser quantity of the product , substitute other products , or switch to imported products , due to the effects of price elasticity of demand . Marginal producers ( those who are barely profitable enough to survive ) may be forced out of business if they can not raise their prices sufficiently to offset the higher cost of labor . Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago research from 2007 has shown that restaurant prices rise in response to minimum wage increases . However , there are studies that show that higher prices for products due to increased labor cost are usually only by about 0.4 % of the original price . Effects on crime ( edit ) A 2016 White House report based on `` back of envelope calculations and literature review '' argued that higher hourly wages led to less crime . The study by the Council of Economic Advisers calculated that `` raising the minimum wage reduces crime by 3 to 5 percent . '' To get those numbers , the study assumed that `` such a minimum wage increase would have no employment impacts , with an employment elasticity of 0.1 the benefits would be somewhat lower . '' In contrast in a 1987 journal article , Masanori Hashimoto noted that minimum wage hikes lead to increased levels of property crime in areas affected by the minimum wage after its increase . According to the article , by decreasing employment in poor communities , total legal trade and production are curtailed . The report also argued that to compensate for the decrease in legal avenues for production and consumption , poor communities increasingly turn to illegal trade and activity . Economic growth ( edit ) Whether growth ( GDP , a measure of both income and production ) increases or decreases depends significantly on whether the income shifted from owners to workers results in an overall higher level of spending . The tendency of a consumer to spend their next dollar is referred to as the marginal propensity to consume or MPC . The transfer of income from higher income owners ( who tend to save more , meaning a lower MPC ) to lower income workers ( who tend to save less , with a higher MPC ) can actually lead to an increase in total consumption and higher demand for goods , leading to increased employment . Recent research has shown that higher wages lead to greater productivity . The CBO reported in February 2014 that income ( GDP ) overall would be marginally higher after raising the minimum wage , indicating a small net positive increase in growth . Raising the minimum wage to $10.10 and indexing it to inflation would result in a net $2 billion increase in income during the second half of 2016 , while raising it to $9.00 and not indexing it would result in a net $1 billion increase in income . Income inequality ( edit ) Further information : Income inequality in the United States Minimum wage levels in developed economies as a share of median full - time wage . The relative minimum wage ratio in the U.S. is shown in red . An increase in the minimum wage is a form of redistribution from higher - income persons ( business owners or `` capital '' ) to lower income persons ( workers or `` labor '' ) and therefore should reduce income inequality . The CBO estimated in February 2014 that raising the minimum wage under either scenario described above would improve income inequality . Families with income more than 6 times the poverty threshold would see their incomes fall ( due in part to their business profits declining with higher employee costs ) , while families with incomes below that threshold would rise . Poverty ( edit ) Among hourly - paid workers In 2016 , 701,000 earned the federal minimum wage and about 1.5 million earned wages below the minimum. Together , these 2.2 million workers represented 2.7 % of all hourly - paid workers . The CBO estimated in February 2014 that raising the minimum wage would reduce the number of persons below the poverty income threshold by 900,000 under the $10.10 option versus 300,000 under the $9.00 option . Similarly , Arindrajit Dube , professor of economics at University of Massachusetts Amherst , found in a 2017 study `` robust evidence that higher minimum wages lead to increases in incomes among families at the bottom of the income distribution and that these wages reduce the poverty rate . '' According to the study `` a 10 percent increase in the minimum wage reduces the nonelderly poverty rate by about 5 percent . '' In contrast , research conducted by David Neumark and colleagues in 2004 found that minimum wages are associated with reductions in the hours and employment of low - wage workers . A separate study by the same researchers found that minimum wages tend to increase the proportion of families with incomes below or near the poverty line . Similarly , a 2002 study led by Richard Vedder , professor of economics at Ohio University , concluded that `` The empirical evidence is strong that minimum wages have had little or no effect on poverty in the U.S. Indeed , the evidence is stronger that minimum wages occasionally increase poverty ... '' Federal budget deficit ( edit ) The CBO reported in February 2014 that `` ( T ) he net effect on the federal budget of raising the minimum wage would probably be a small decrease in budget deficits for several years but a small increase in budget deficits thereafter . It is unclear whether the effect for the coming decade as a whole would be a small increase or a small decrease in budget deficits . '' On the cost side , the report cited higher wages paid by the government to some of its employees along with higher costs for certain procured goods and services . This might be offset by fewer government benefits paid , as some workers with higher incomes would receive fewer government transfer payments . On the revenue side , some would pay higher taxes and others less . Commentary ( edit ) Economists ( edit ) Effective minimum wage adjusted for cost of living for select U.S. cities ( 2015 ) City Effective minimum wage Seattle $8.51 Denver $7.57 Houston $7.26 United States $7.25 San Francisco $7.03 Chicago $7.01 Boston $6.59 Washington , D.C. $6.53 Los Angeles $6.38 Philadelphia $6.08 New York City $3.86 According to a survey conducted by economist Greg Mankiw , 79 % of economists agreed that `` a minimum wage increases unemployment among young and unskilled workers . '' A 2015 survey conducted by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center found that a majority of economists believes raising the minimum wage to $15 per hour would have negative effects on youth employment levels ( 83 % ) , adult employment levels ( 52 % ) , and the number of jobs available ( 76 % ) . Additionally , 67 % of economists surveyed believed that a $15 minimum wage would make it harder for small businesses with less than 50 employees to stay in business . A 2006 survey conducted by economist Robert Whaples of a sample of 210 Ph. D. economists randomly selected from the American Economic Association , found that , regarding the U.S. minimum wage : 46.8 % favored eliminating it 14.3 % favored keeping it the same 1.3 % favored decreasing it 5.2 % favored increasing it by about 50 cents per hour 15.6 % favored increasing it by about $1 per hour 16.9 % favored increasing it by more than $1 per hour In 2014 , over 600 economists signed a letter in support of increasing the minimum wage to $10.10 with research suggesting that a minimum wage increase could have a small stimulative effect on the economy as low - wage workers spend their additional earnings , raising demand and job growth . Also , seven recipients of the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences were among 75 economists endorsing an increase in the minimum wage for U.S. workers and said `` the weight '' of economic research shows higher pay does n't lead to fewer jobs . According to a February 2013 survey of the University of Chicago IGM Forum , which includes approximately 40 economists : 34 % agreed with the statement that `` Raising the federal minimum wage to $9 per hour would make it noticeably harder for low - skilled workers to find employment '' , with 32 % disagreeing and 24 % uncertain 42 % agreed that `` ... raising the minimum wage to $9 per hour and indexing it to inflation ... would be a desirable policy '' , with 11 % disagreeing or strongly disagreeing and 32 % uncertain . According to a fall 2000 survey conducted by Fuller and Geide - Stevenson , 73.5 % ( 27.9 % of which agreed with provisos ) of American economists surveyed agreed that minimum wage laws increase unemployment among unskilled and young workers , while 26.5 % disagreed with the statement . Economist Paul Krugman advocated raising the minimum wage moderately in 2013 , citing several reasons , including : The minimum wage was below its 1960s purchasing power , despite a near doubling of productivity ; The great preponderance of the evidence indicates there is no negative impact on employment from moderate increases ; and A high level of public support , specifically Democrats and Republican women . Major Political parties ( edit ) Democratic candidates , elected officials , and activists support an increase in the minimum wage . In his 2013 State of the Union Address , President Barack Obama called for an increase in the federal minimum wage to $9 an hour ; several months later , Democrats Tom Harkin and George Miller proposed legislation to increase the federal minimum wage to $10.10 ; and in 2015 , congressional Democrats introduced a proposal to increase the federal minimum wage to $12 an hour . These efforts did not succeed , but increases in city and state minimum wages prompted congressional Democrats to continue fighting for an increase on the federal level . After much internal party debate , the party 's official platform adopted at the 2016 Democratic National Convention stated : `` We should raise the federal minimum wage to $15 an hour over time and index it , give all Americans the ability to join a union regardless of where they work , and create new ways for workers to have power in the economy so every worker can earn at least $15 an hour . '' Most Republican elected officials oppose action to increase the minimum wage , and have blocked Democratic efforts to increase the minimum wage . Republican leadership such as Speakers of the House John Boehner and Paul Ryan have opposed minimum wage increases . Some Republicans oppose having a minimum wage altogether , while a few , conversely , have supported minimum wage increases or indexing the minimum wage to inflation . Former President Bill Clinton advocated raising the minimum wage in 2014 : `` I think we ought to raise the minimum wage because it does n't just raise wages for the three or four million people who are directly affected by it , it bumps the wage structure everywhere ... The estimates are that 35 million Americans would get a pay raise if the federal minimum wage was raised ... If you ( raise the minimum wage ) in a phased way , it always creates jobs . Why ? Because people who make the minimum wage or near it are struggling to get by , they spend every penny they make , they turn it over in the economy , they create jobs , they create opportunity , and they take better care of their children . It 's just the right thing to do , but it 's also very good economics . '' Polls ( edit ) The Pew Center reported in January 2014 that 73 % of Americans supported raising the minimum wage from $7.25 to $10 . By party , 53 % of Republicans and 90 % of Democrats favored this action . Pew found a racial difference for support of a higher minimum wage in 2017 with most blacks and Hispanics supporting a $15.00 federal minimum wage , and 54 % of whites opposing it . A Lake Research Partners poll in February 2012 found the following : Strong support overall for raising the minimum wage , with 73 % of likely voters supporting an increase to $10 and indexing it to inflation during 2014 , including 58 % who strongly support the action ; Support crosses party lines , with support from 91 % of Democrats , 74 % of Independents , and 50 % of Republicans ; and A majority ( 56 % ) believe that raising the minimum wage will help the economy , 16 % believe it wo n't make a difference , and only 21 % felt it would hurt the economy . List by jurisdiction ( edit ) This is a list of the minimum wages ( per hour ) in each state and territory of the United States , for jobs covered by federal minimum wage laws . If the job is not subject to the federal Fair Labor Standards Act , then state , city , or other local laws may determine the minimum wage . A common exemption to the federal minimum wage is a company having revenue of less than $500,000 per year while not engaging in any interstate commerce . Under the federal law , workers who receive a portion of their salary from tips , such as waitstaff , are required only to have their total compensation , including tips , meet the minimum wage . Therefore , often , their hourly wage , before tips , is less than the minimum wage . Seven states , and Guam , do not allow for a tip credit . Additional exemptions to the minimum wage include many seasonal employees , student employees , and certain disabled employees as specified by the FLSA . In addition , some counties and cities within states may implement a higher minimum wage than the rest of their state . Sometimes this higher wage applies only to businesses that contract with the local government , while in other cases the higher minimum applies to all work .

To the west and south of the Kruger National Park are the two South African provinces of Limpopo and Mpumalanga . In the north is Zimbabwe , and to the east is Mozambique . It is now part of the Great Limpopo Transfrontier Park , a peace park that links Kruger National Park with the Gonarezhou National Park in Zimbabwe , and with the Limpopo National Park in Mozambique . The park is part of the Kruger to Canyons Biosphere an area designated by the United Nations Educational , Scientific and Cultural Organization ( UNESCO ) as an International Man and Biosphere Reserve ( the `` Biosphere '' ) .

Paul Kruger , President of the Republic of South Africa at the time , proclaimed the area , which was inhabited by the Tsonga people , a sanctuary for the protection of its wildlife . Today it is against the law to farm or hunt animals in that area . James Stevenson Hamilton noted many kraals along the Sabi River and also further north beyond the Letaba River although the north was sparsely populated compared to the south . Many of the local natives were employed by Railway companies trying to connect Pretoria and Maputo during the end of the 19th century . The proclaimed area , called Makuleke , was returned to the Tsonga people in 1998 . Since then the Kruger National Park has paid royalties to the Tsonga , which is collected as a tribal fee from tourists . Sabi game Reserve ( 1898 -- 1926 ) ( edit ) In 1895 , Jakob Louis van Wyk introduced in the Volksraad of the old South African Republic a motion to create the game reserve . The area proposed extended from the Olifants River to the Sabi River in the north . That motion , introduced together with another Volksraad member by the name of R.K. Loveday , and accepted for discussion in September 1895 by a majority of one vote , resulted in the proclamation by Paul Kruger , president of the Transvaal Republic ( South African Republic ) , on 26 March 1898 , of a `` Government Wildlife Park . '' This park would later be known as the Sabi Game Reserve . The park was initially created to control hunting and protect the diminished number of animals in the park . James Stevenson - Hamilton became the first warden of the reserve in 1902 . The reserve was located in the southern one - third of the modern park . Shingwedzi Reserve , named after the Shingwedzi River and now in northern Kruger National Park , was proclaimed in 1903 . During the following decades all the native tribes were removed from the reserve and during the 1960s the last were removed at Makuleke in the Pafuri triangle . In 1926 , Sabie Game Reserve , the adjacent Shingwedzi Game Reserve , and farms were combined to create Kruger National Park . During 1923 , the first large groups of tourists started visiting the Sabie Game Reserve , but only as part of the South African Railways ' popular `` Round in Nine '' tours . The tourist trains used the Selati railway line between Komatipoort on the Mozambican border and Tzaneen in Limpopo Province . The tour included an overnight stop at Sabie Bridge ( now Skukuza ) and a short walk , escorted by armed rangers , into the bush . It soon became a highlight of the tour and it gave valuable support for the campaign to proclaim the Sabie Game Reserve as a national park . Kruger National Park ( 1926 -- 1946 ) ( edit ) After the proclamation of the Kruger National Park in 1926 , the first three tourist cars entered the park in 1927 , jumping to 180 cars in 1928 and 850 cars in 1929 . Warden James Stevenson - Hamilton retired on 30 April 1946 , after 44 years as warden of the Kruger Park and its predecessor , the Sabi Sabi Game Reserve . 1946 -- 1994 ( edit ) Plaque in the park . Now and then people do get killed , however , this is extremely rare . Stevenson - Hamilton was replaced by Colonel J.A.B. Sandenbergh of the South African Air Force . During 1959 , work commenced to completely fence the park boundaries . Work started on the southern boundary along the Crocodile River and in 1960 the western and northern boundaries were fenced , followed by the eastern boundary with Mozambique . The purpose of the fence was to curb the spread of diseases , facilitate border patrolling and inhibit the movement of poachers . The Makuleke area in the northern part of the park was forcibly taken from the Makuleke people by the government in 1969 and about 1500 of them were relocated to land to the south so that their original tribal areas could be integrated into the greater Kruger National Park . 1994 -- present ( edit ) In 1996 the Makuleke tribe submitted a land claim for 19,842 hectares ( 198.42 km ) in the northern part of the Kruger National Park . The land was given back to the Makuleke people , however , they chose not to resettle on the land but to engage with the private sector to invest in tourism , thus resulting in the building of several game lodges . In the late 1990s , the fences between the Kruger Park and Klaserie Game Reserve , Olifants Game Reserve and Balule Game Reserve were dropped and incorporated into the Greater Kruger Park with 40 000 hectares added to the Reserve . In 2002 , Kruger National Park , Gonarezhou National Park in Zimbabwe , and Limpopo National Park in Mozambique were incorporated into a peace park , the Great Limpopo Transfrontier Park . Location and geography ( edit ) Geography of the Kruger National Park Olifants River Luvuvhu and Limpopo rivers at Crookes Corner in Pafuri triangle The park lies in the north - east of South Africa , in the eastern parts of Limpopo and Mpumalanga provinces . Phalaborwa , Limpopo is the only town in South Africa that borders the Kruger National Park . It is one of the largest national parks in the world , with an area of 19,485 square kilometres ( 7,523 sq mi ) . The park is approximately 360 kilometres ( 220 mi ) long , and has an average width of 65 kilometres ( 40 mi ) . At its widest point , the park is 90 kilometres ( 56 mi ) wide from east to west . To the north and south of the park two rivers , the Limpopo and the Crocodile respectively , act as its natural boundaries . To the east the Lebombo Mountains separate it from Mozambique . Its western boundary runs parallel with this range , roughly 65 kilometres ( 40 mi ) distant . The park varies in altitude between 200 metres ( 660 ft ) in the east and 840 metres ( 2,760 ft ) in the south - west near Berg - en - Dal . The highest point in the park is here , a hill called Khandzalive . Several rivers run through the park from west to east , including the Sabie , Olifants , Crocodile , Letaba , Luvuvhu and Limpopo Rivers .

Summer days are humid and hot . The rainy season is from September until May . The Kruger National Park website lists September and October as the driest periods , culminating in rains late in October . The dry winter season is the ideal time to visit this region for various reasons . There is less chance of contracting malaria and the days are milder . Viewing wildlife is more rewarding as the vegetation is more sparse and animals are drawn to the waterholes to drink every morning and evening . Flora and Fauna ( edit ) Vegetation ( edit ) Plants life in the park consists of four main areas : Natural landscape for much of the Park Thorn trees and red bush - willow veld ( edit ) This area lies between the western boundary and roughly the centre of the park south of the Olifants River . Combretums , such as the red bush - willow ( Combretum apiculatum ) , and Acacia species predominate while there are a great number of marula trees ( Sclerocarya caffra ) . The Acacias are dominant along the rivers and streams , the very dense Nwatimhiri bush along the Sabie River between Skukuza and Lower Sabie being a very good example . Knob - thorn and marula veld ( edit ) South of the Olifants River in the eastern half of the park , this area provides the most important grazing - land . Species such as red grass ( Themeda triandra ) and buffalo grass ( Panicum maximum ) predominate while the knob - thorn ( Acacia nigrescens ) , leadwood ( Combretum imberbe ) and marula ( Sclerocarya caffra ) are the main tree species . Red bush - willow and mopane veld ( edit ) This area lies in the western half of the park , north of the Olifants River . The two most prominent species here are the red bush - willow ( Combretum apiculatum ) and the mopane tree ( Colophospermum mopane ) . Shrub mopane veld ( edit ) Shrub mopane covers almost the entire north - eastern part of the park . There are a number of smaller areas in the park which carry distinctive vegetation such as Pretoriuskop where the sickle bush and the silver cluster - leaf ( Terminalia sericea ) are prominent . The sandveld communities near Punda Maria are equally definitive , with a wide variety of unique species . Birds ( edit ) Out of the 517 species of birds found at Kruger , 253 are residents , 117 non-breeding migrants , and 147 nomads . Some of the larger birds require large territories or are sensitive to habitat degradation . Six of these species , which are by and large restricted to Kruger and other extensive conservation areas , have been assigned to a fanciful grouping called the `` Big Six Birds '' . They are the lappet - faced vulture , martial eagle , saddle - billed stork , kori bustard , ground hornbill and the reclusive Pel 's fishing owl , which is localized and seldom seen . There are between 25 and 30 breeding pairs of saddle - billed storks in the park , besides a handful of non-breeding individuals . In 2012 178 family groups of ground hornbills roamed the park and 78 nests were known , of which 50 % were active . Mammals ( edit ) Mammals A male Southern African lion Elephant crossing a road Leopard A cheetah at Kruger National Park . All the Big Five game animals are found at Kruger National Park , which has more species of large mammals than any other African game reserve ( at 147 species ) . There are webcams set up to observe the wildlife . The park stopped culling elephants in 1994 and tried translocating them , but by 2004 the population had increased to 11,670 elephants , by 2006 to approximately 13,500 , by 2009 to 11,672 , and by 2012 to 16,900 . The park 's habitats can only sustain about 8,000 elephants . The park started an attempt at using contraception in 1995 , but has stopped that due to problems with delivering the contraceptives and upsetting the herds . Kruger supports packs of the endangered African wild dog , of which there are thought to be only about 400 in the whole of South Africa . Wildlife Population As of 2009 Species Count ( 2009 ) Count ( 2010 ) Black Rhinoceros 350 590 - 660 Blue Wildebeest 9,612 11,500 Burchell 's zebra 17,797 26,500 Bushbuck 500 500 Cape buffalo 27,000 37,500 Eland 300 460 Elephant 11,672 13,700 Giraffe 5,114 9,000 Greater Kudu 5,798 9,500 Hippopotamus 3,000 3,100 Impala 150,000 120,000 Lichtenstein 's Hartebeest 50 Mountain Reedbuck 150 Nyala 300 Roan Antelope 90 Sable Antelope 290 Warthog 3,500 Waterbuck 5,000 5,500 White Rhinoceros 7,000 to 12,000 10,500 African wild dog 150 Cheetah 120 120 Crocodile 4,420 Leopard 2,000 1,000 Lion 2,800 1,600 Spotted hyena 2,000 3,500 Pride of lions in Kruger National Park Reptiles ( edit ) Kruger houses 114 species of reptile , including black mamba , african rock pythons , and 3000 crocodiles . Amphibians and fish ( edit ) Thirty - three species of amphibians are found in the Park , as well as 50 fish species . A Zambesi shark , Carcharhinus leucas , also known as the bull shark , was caught at the confluence of the Limpopo and Luvuvhu Rivers in July 1950 . Zambezi sharks tolerate fresh water and can travel far up rivers like the Limpopo . Anti-poaching measures ( edit ) Kruger is not exempt from the threat of poaching that many other African countries have faced . Many poachers are in search of ivory from rhino and elephant tusks . The park 's anti-poaching unit consists of 650 SANParks game rangers , assisted by the SAPS and the SANDF ( including the SAAF ) . As of 2013 , the park is equipped with two drones borrowed from Denel and two Aérospatiale Gazelle helicopters , donated by the RAF to augment its air space presence . Automated movement sensors relay intrusions along the Mozambique border to a control center , and a specialist dog unit has been introduced . Buffer zones have been established along the border with Mozambique , from where many poachers have infiltrated the park , as an alternative to costly new fences . The original 150 km long fences were dropped in 2002 to establish the Great Limpopo Transfrontier Park . The national anti-poaching committee oversees all activities and coordinates interested parties . Poachers ( edit ) Kruger 's big game poachers operate with night vision instruments and large caliber rifles , fitted with suppressors and sophisticated telescopic sights . They are mostly Mozambique citizens that initiate their carefully planned incursions from the Mozambique border region . In 2012 some 200 poachers were apprehended , while about 30 were killed in skirmishes . In July 2012 , a Kruger game ranger and policeman were the first to die in an anti-poaching operation , while other employees reported intimidation by poachers . A Kruger personnel strike affected some anti-poaching operations , and a few employees have been directly implicated . Rangers in and around the park have been pressured or blackmailed by poaching syndicates to provide intelligence on the whereabouts of rhinos and anti-poaching operations . In December 2012 , Kruger started using a Seeker II drone against rhino poachers . The drone was loaned to the South African National Parks authority by its manufacturer Denel Dynamics , South Africa . In February 2018 , a head belonging to a suspected poacher appeared in Kruger National Park near Hoedspruit , with the body dragged off and eaten by lions , it is assumed . Officials had assumed at first that it was the head of a park employee that had gone missing days before , but it was later determined the man was , in fact , a suspected poacher after the park employee had been found alive . The head belonging to the suspected poacher had been found in an area highly trafficked by lions , along with a loaded hunting rifle . Rhino horn ( edit ) Poachers mostly operate at or near full moon and make no distinction between white and black rhinos . Losses of black rhino are however low due to their reclusive and aggressive nature . With rhino horn fetching around $66,000 ( and up to $82,000 ) per kilogram , the CITES ban on the trade in rhino horn has proved largely ineffectual . The second horn is sometimes hacked from the skull to obtain about 100 ml of moisture that is sold locally as traditional medicine . Poaching related to rhino horn escalated in the 21st century with 949 rhinos killed in Kruger in the first twelve years ( 2001 to 2012 ) , and over 520 in 2013 alone . A planned memorandum of agreement between South Africa and Vietnam , in addition to the one with China , are seen as necessary milestones in stemming the tide , while negotiations with Thailand have not yet started . The amount of rhino horn held in storage is not publicly known . Since 2009 some Kruger rhinos have been fitted with invisible tracing devices in their bodies and horns which enable officials to locate their carcasses and to track the smuggled horns by satellite . South Africa 's 22,000 white and black rhinos , of which 12,000 are found in Kruger , represent some 93 % of these species ' world population . Ivory stocks ( edit ) Kruger experienced significant elephant poaching in the 1980s , which has since abated . It holds over 48 tons of ivory in storage . According to Convention on the International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Flora and Fauna ( CITES ) , it is allowed to sell 30 tons . Following approval by CITES , 47 metric tons of stockpiled ivory from Kruger were auctioned on 6 November 2008 . The sale fetched approximately US $6.7 million which will be used towards increasing anti-poaching activity . The average price for the 63 lots on auction was US $142 / kg . Other ( edit ) It is foreseen that the placement of wire traps to procure meat would eventually become the most challenging form of poaching . A scheme has been proposed to reward adjacent communities with the proceeds of game sales in return for their cooperation in game preservation . The larger communities include Bosbokrand , Acornhoek , Hazyview , Hoedspruit , Komatipoort , Malelane , Marloth Park , Nelspruit and Phalaborwa . Accommodation and facilities ( edit ) The Kruger National Park has 21 rest camps , as well as two private lodge concessions , and 15 designated private safari lodges . The concessions are parcels of land operated by private companies in partnership with communities , who outsource the operation of private lodges . Camping in the park has become popular with tourists and backpackers because it is much less expensive , and open to anyone , requiring no special permission to partake .

Mugg & Bean restaurants have been established at Lower Sabie , Olifants and Letaba rest camps . Wimpy restaurants have been established at Pretoriuskop and Satara rest camps . Skukuza 's Selati Station Grill House has been replaced by Ciao ! and Skukuza 's main camp restaurant and take away will be run by Cattle Baron and Bistro . This decision was controversial , with some people welcoming the improvement in food services , and others viewing the introduction of franchises as detracting from the purpose of the Kruger Park .

Some are overnight and they last several days in areas of wilderness virtually untouched by humans . There are no set trails in the wilderness areas ; a visitor walks along paths made by animals or seeks out new routes through the bush .

Scarlett Johansson Sebastian Stan Anthony Mackie Don Cheadle Jeremy Renner Chadwick Boseman Paul Bettany Elizabeth Olsen Paul Rudd Emily VanCamp Tom Holland Frank Grillo William Hurt Daniel Brühl Music by Henry Jackman Cinematography Trent Opaloch Edited by Jeffrey Ford Matthew Schmidt Production company Marvel Studios Distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures Release date April 12 , 2016 ( 2016 - 04 - 12 ) ( Dolby Theatre ) May 6 , 2016 ( 2016 - 05 - 06 ) ( United States ) Running time 147 minutes Country United States Language English Budget $250 million Box office $1.153 billion Captain America : Civil War is a 2016 American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics character Captain America , produced by Marvel Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures . It is the sequel to 2011 's Captain America : The First Avenger and 2014 's Captain America : The Winter Soldier , and the thirteenth film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe ( MCU ) . The film is directed by Anthony and Joe Russo , with a screenplay by Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely , and features an ensemble cast , including Chris Evans , Robert Downey Jr. , Scarlett Johansson , Sebastian Stan , Anthony Mackie , Don Cheadle , Jeremy Renner , Chadwick Boseman , Paul Bettany , Elizabeth Olsen , Paul Rudd , Emily VanCamp , Tom Holland , Frank Grillo , William Hurt , and Daniel Brühl . In Captain America : Civil War , disagreement over international oversight of the Avengers fractures them into opposing factions -- one led by Steve Rogers and the other by Tony Stark . Development of Civil War began in late 2013 when Markus and McFeely began writing the screenplay , which borrows concepts from the 2006 comic book storyline `` Civil War '' , while also focusing on story and character elements from the previous Captain America films to conclude the trilogy . Following positive reactions to test screenings of The Winter Soldier , the Russo brothers were brought back to direct in early 2014 . The film 's title and premise were revealed in October 2014 , along with Downey 's casting ; additional cast members joined in the following months . Principal photography began in April 2015 at Pinewood Atlanta Studios in Fayette County , Georgia , and continued in the Metro Atlanta area before concluding in Germany in August 2015 , with the film being the first to use IMAX 's digital 2D cameras ( for the film 's central airport fight sequence ) . Visual effects were provided by nearly 20 different studios during the post-production process . Captain America : Civil War held its world premiere in Los Angeles on April 12 , 2016 , and was released in the United States on May 6 , 2016 , in 3D and IMAX 3D . The film became a critical and commercial success , grossing over $1.1 billion worldwide , making it the highest - grossing film of 2016 and , at the time , the 12th - highest - grossing film ever .

In the present day , approximately one year after Ultron 's defeat in the nation of Sokovia at the hands of the Avengers , Steve Rogers , Natasha Romanoff , Sam Wilson , and Wanda Maximoff stop Brock Rumlow from stealing a biological weapon from a lab in Lagos . Rumlow blows himself up , hoping to kill Rogers . When Maximoff throws the explosion into the sky with telekinesis , it damages a nearby building , killing several Wakandan humanitarian workers . U.S. Secretary of State Thaddeus Ross informs the Avengers that the United Nations ( UN ) is preparing to pass the Sokovia Accords , which will establish a UN panel to oversee and control the team . The Avengers are divided : Tony Stark supports oversight because of his role in Ultron 's creation and Sokovia 's devastation , while Rogers has more faith in his own judgment than that of a government . Helmut Zemo tracks down and kills Barnes ' old Hydra handler , stealing a book containing the trigger words that activate Barnes ' brainwashing . At a conference in Vienna where the Accords are to be ratified , a bomb kills King T'Chaka of Wakanda . Security footage indicates the bomber is Barnes , whom T'Chaka's son , T'Challa , vows to kill . Informed by Sharon Carter of Barnes ' whereabouts and the authorities ' intentions to kill him , Rogers decides to try to bring in Barnes -- his childhood friend and war comrade -- himself . Rogers and Wilson track Barnes to Bucharest and attempt to protect him from T'Challa and the authorities , but all four , including T'Challa , are apprehended . Impersonating a psychiatrist sent to interview Barnes , Zemo recites the words to make Barnes obey him . He questions Barnes , then sends him on a rampage to cover his own escape . Rogers stops Barnes and sneaks him away . When Barnes regains his senses , he explains that Zemo is the real Vienna bomber and wanted the location of the Siberian Hydra base , where other brainwashed `` Winter Soldiers '' are kept in cryogenic stasis . Unwilling to wait for authorization to apprehend Zemo , Rogers and Wilson go rogue , and recruit Maximoff , Clint Barton , and Scott Lang to their cause . With Ross 's permission , Stark assembles a team composed of Romanoff , T'Challa , James Rhodes , Vision , and Peter Parker to capture the renegades . Stark 's team intercepts Rogers ' group at Leipzig / Halle Airport , where they fight until Romanoff allows Rogers and Barnes to escape . The rest of Rogers ' team is captured and detained at the Raft prison , while Rhodes is partially paralyzed after being inadvertently shot down by Vision , and Romanoff goes into exile . Stark discovers evidence that Barnes was framed by Zemo and convinces Wilson to give him Rogers ' destination . Without informing Ross , Stark goes to the Siberian Hydra facility and reconciles with Rogers and Barnes , unaware that they were secretly followed by T'Challa . They find that the other super-soldiers have been killed by Zemo , who then shows them footage that reveals that the automobile Barnes had intercepted in 1991 contained Stark 's parents , whom Barnes subsequently killed . Enraged and vengeful against that Rogers kept this from him , Stark engages them both in a fight , blasting Barnes ' metal arm off and almost killing Rogers . But finally , Rogers uses his shield to damage Stark 's armor by destroying the powersource and departs with Barnes , leaving his shield behind . Satisfied that he got Stark and Rogers to fight each other , Zemo attempts suicide , but T'Challa stops him and takes him to the authorities . In the aftermath , Stark provides Rhodes with exoskeletal leg braces that allow him to walk again , while Rogers breaks his allies out of the Raft . In a mid-credits scene , Barnes , granted asylum in Wakanda , chooses to return to cryogenic sleep until a cure for his brainwashing is found . In a post-credits scene , Parker tests a new gadget built by Stark . Cast ( edit ) ( L-R ) Nate Moore , Kevin Feige , the Russo brothers , Paul Bettany , Daniel Brühl , Robert Downey , Jr. , Chris Evans , Tom Holland , Paul Rudd , Elizabeth Olsen , Jeremy Renner , Anthony Mackie , Sebastian Stan , and Emily VanCamp at the London premiere Chris Evans as Steve Rogers / Captain America : The leader of a faction of Avengers against regulation ; a World War II veteran who was enhanced to the peak of human physicality and frozen in suspended animation , before waking up in the modern world . Director Anthony Russo described Captain America 's character arc in the film as taking `` him from the most ra - ra company man '' to someone who is `` a somewhat willing propagandist '' to `` an insurgent '' at the end of the film . Unlike the comics ' Civil War , the film was never going to kill Rogers , as the directors thought that was `` an easy ending ... The more difficult and more interesting place to leave a family fight is : can these important relationships ever be repaired ? Is this family broken permanently ? '' Evans ' training regimen to get in shape for the role included weight lifting , which consisted of `` the classic bodyweight and bodybuilding stuff '' , gymnastics and plyometrics , while staying away from cardio - based exercises , along with a high - protein diet . His costume in the film received `` subtle changes to all the details and cut '' as well as its color , becoming a combination of the stealth suit from Winter Soldier and the Avengers : Age of Ultron suit . Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark / Iron Man : The leader of a faction of Avengers in support of regulation ; a self - described genius , billionaire , playboy , and philanthropist with electromechanical suits of armor of his own invention . Anthony Russo said that Stark 's egomania allowed the writers `` to bring him to a point in his life where he was willing to submit to an authority , where he felt it was the right thing to do . '' Joe Russo added that because of the visions Stark saw in Age of Ultron , he now has a guilt complex which `` drives him to make very specific decisions , '' calling his emotional arc `` very complicated '' . Downey 's personal trainer Eric Oram stated that the trick to pitting Rogers against Stark , `` is to show Iron Man using the ' minimum force ' necessary to win the fight '' . Marvel initially wanted Downey 's part to be smaller , but `` Downey wanted Stark to have a more substantial role in the film 's plot . '' Variety noted that Downey would receive $40 million plus backend for his participation , as well as an additional payout if the film outperformed The Winter Soldier , as Marvel would attribute that success to Downey 's presence . Scarlett Johansson as Natasha Romanoff / Black Widow : An Avenger allied with Stark ; formerly a highly trained S.H.I.E.L.D. spy . Anthony Russo noted her torn allegiances in the film , saying `` her head is with Tony 's side of things , but her heart is with Cap in a lot of ways . '' Johansson added that Romanoff is `` looking to strategize her position , putting herself in a place where she is able to let the powers that be fight it out '' in order for her to `` have a better perspective of what 's really going on . '' Describing her character 's situation after the events of Avengers : Age of Ultron , Johansson said , `` I think that the Widow 's past will always haunt her . She 's trying to move forward , she 's trying to pick up the pieces of her life . '' She also said that Romanoff is at a point in her life where she can make choices herself , without having others have a hand in the decision process . On the continuation of the relationship between Romanoff and Rogers from The Winter Soldier , Joe Russo said that they wanted to `` test it '' by having Romanoff point out to Rogers the mistakes the team have made and convince him `` that it might not be as black and white as he sees it '' and that the Avengers must `` find a way to work within the system so that ( they ) are n't disbanded . '' Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes / Winter Soldier : A physically enhanced brainwashed assassin allied with Rogers ; his best friend who reemerged after being thought killed in action during World War II . This portrayal is an amalgam of Barnes and the Winter Soldier , with Stan saying , `` here 's the guy when you merge the two . This is what came out . To me , he 's never really going to be Bucky Barnes again . There 's going to be recognizable things about him , but his path through the ( experiences of ) Winter Soldier is always going to be there , haunting him . '' Because of this , the character has more lines in the film than in Winter Soldier . Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson / Falcon : An Avenger allied with Rogers ; a former pararescueman trained by the military in aerial combat using a specially designed wing pack . Wilson is aided by a robotic drone named Redwing . Discussing the relationship between Wilson and Rogers , Mackie said , `` With Falcon and Cap , what 's so great is there 's a mutual respect . There 's a soldier respect . What 's great about ... ( Captain America : Civil War ) is you get to see their relationship grow , '' adding , `` He respects and admires Cap because Cap earned his rank as opposed to sitting in an office and just delegating orders . '' Joe Russo stated that the inclusion of Barnes to Rogers ' side forces Wilson to question the dynamic and relationship he has with Rogers going forward . Don Cheadle as James `` Rhodey '' Rhodes / War Machine : A close personal friend of Tony Stark 's and an Avenger allied with Stark ; an officer in the U.S. Air Force who operates the War Machine armor . Cheadle called Rhodes ' appearance in the film a `` bit more intense and pivotal '' compared to his previous appearances . Jeremy Renner as Clint Barton / Hawkeye : A master archer allied with Rogers ; a retired Avenger and S.H.I.E.L.D. agent . On Barton 's reasons for joining Rogers ' side , Renner said , `` Cap was the first guy who called . Let 's just get the job done so I can get home to the family , '' along with feeling an obligation to side with Scarlet Witch , since her brother , Pietro Maximoff / Quicksilver , sacrificed himself to save Barton in Avengers : Age of Ultron . On how he and Barton fit into the Marvel Cinematic Universe , Renner said , `` I 'm happy to be the ensemble . I 'm not scratching or clawing to do a solo movie by any means ... I think ( Barton 's ) a utility guy that can bounce around into other people 's universes a little bit '' . Chadwick Boseman as T'Challa / Black Panther : The prince of the African nation of Wakanda allied with Stark , who gains enhanced strength by ingesting the Heart - Shaped Herb . Producer Kevin Feige explained that the character was included `` because we needed a third party . We needed fresh eyes who was n't embedded with the Avengers and who has a very different point of view than either Tony or Steve . '' T'Challa is in the `` beginning phases of taking on '' the Black Panther mantle , and appears in more than a cameo , with a full arc and character journey with `` his own conflict and his own people that he 's looking out for . '' Boseman did not audition for the role , instead having a `` discussion about what ( Marvel ) wanted to do and how I saw it and what I wanted to do . '' T'Challa is torn between needing to live up to traditions and the legacy of his father and Wakanda , and how things need to happen in the present . Boseman developed the Wakandan accent himself , and used it during the entire production `` whether he was on camera or not '' , while the Wakandan language was based on the Xhosa language , which Boseman was taught by John Kani ( who plays T'Challa's father T'Chaka ) . The Black Panther costume is a combination of a practical costume and visual effects , featuring a vibranium mesh weave similar to chainmail . Costume designer Judianna Makovsky called the Black Panther costume `` difficult '' since `` you needed sort of a feline body , but it 's hard and practical at the same time . You needed a feeling of some sort of ethnicity in there , but of a world ( Wakanda ) we were n't really creating yet , so you did n't want to go too far and say too much about that world . '' Additionally , Makovsky felt creating T'Challa's royal look was `` a bit of a challenge '' , avoiding African robes after learning actual African royalty are generally `` educated in the West ( and ) get dressed in Savile Row . '' Boseman has a five picture deal with Marvel . Paul Bettany as Vision : An android and Avenger allied with Stark ; created using the artificial intelligence J.A.R.V.I.S. and the Mind Stone . Because the Vision was only created in the previous film , Age of Ultron , Bettany said , `` you see my character get born ... He must be both omnipotent and yet totally naive at the same time . And experiencing the world in real time and his place in it . Is he going to be a force of good or a force of evil ? '' Bettany also said he was interested in exploring `` what it means to be human and what love is '' with the character , as `` The only way one can guarantee one 's loyalty is love . '' This is exhibited in the connection Vision begins to form with Wanda Maximoff , with Bettany commenting , `` They both have these new burgeoning powers that they do n't understand ... I think he 's worried that they 're both dangerous . So he feels this real connection with her . '' As the Vision has the ability to create a projected disguise , he chooses to dress similarly to Howard Stark 's attache , Edwin Jarvis . Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff / Scarlet Witch : An Avenger allied with Rogers ; she can engage in hypnosis and telekinesis . According to Olsen , the character is `` coming into her own and starting to understand and have conflict with how she wants to use her abilities . '' As such , Maximoff 's costume was `` relatively casual '' and `` more clothes - based than superhero - based '' according to Makovsky , since the Russos believed Maximoff was not a full - fledged Avenger yet . When asked about the relationship between her character and the Vision compared to the comics , Olsen said , `` You learn a little bit more about what connects ( Scarlet and Vision ) in this film . And I think there 's some really sweet moments between Paul and I , and it 's more about how they relate to one another and their similarities just based on their superpowers . '' Paul Rudd as Scott Lang / Ant - Man : A former petty criminal allied with Rogers ; he acquired a suit that allows him to shrink or grow in scale while also increasing in strength . Rudd 's suit `` is streamlined and more high - tech '' from the one seen in Ant - Man . Ant - Man director Peyton Reed had discussed the character and the way that the Ant - Man production had shot certain sequences with the Russo brothers , saying , `` As we were doing ( Ant - Man ) and we were in post and they were getting ready to head out to Atlanta to do Civil War , we had a lot of conversations ... It 's important because there 's this continuity that has to happen in this universe . '' On the decision to have Lang grow in size to become Giant - Man in the airport battle , Feige said , `` It was just a great idea to turn the tide of the battle in a huge , shocking , unexpected way . We have a lot of ideas for ( Ant - Man and the Wasp ) , none of which are contingent upon revealing Giant - Man , so we thought this would be the fun , unbelievable unexpected way to do that . '' Anthony Russo added that the transformation was the continuation of Lang 's character arc from Ant - Man , saying `` He 's just really impressed with Captain America , he just wants to deliver and he figures out a way to deliver where he might actually tear himself in half but he 's willing to do it and it works . '' Emily VanCamp as Sharon Carter : A former agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Peggy Carter 's niece , who now works for the CIA and supports Rogers . VanCamp stated that her character sides with Rogers because they both have `` similar moral compasses '' . On a potential relationship between Rogers and Carter as in the comics , Evans said , `` he 's certainly open to it . Sharon is obviously relevant , but ... we do n't have to tie it up in one movie . So they have time . '' VanCamp added , `` We get to explore ... I ca n't say we are going to that extent of it , but they are certainly getting to know each other . '' Tom Holland as Peter Parker / Spider - Man : A teenager allied with Stark ; he received spider - like abilities after being bitten by a genetically altered spider . Feige said that Parker would be torn between superhero ideologies , saying , `` Does he want to be like these other characters ? Does he want nothing to do with these other characters ? How does that impact his experience , being this grounded but super powerful hero ? Those are all the things that Stan Lee and Steve Ditko played with in the first 10 years of his comics , and that now we can play with for the first time in a movie . '' On aligning with Stark , Anthony Russo said that , despite entering the conflict after the two factions have formed and not having much political investment , Parker 's choice comes from `` a very personal relationship '' he develops with Stark . The Russos hoped `` to take a very logical and realistic and naturalistic approach to the character '' compared to the previous film portrayals . Anthony Russo added that the character 's introduction had to fit `` that specific tonal stylistic world '' of the MCU , as well as the tone established by the directors in Winter Soldier , saying , `` It 's a little more grounded and a little more hard - core contemporary . '' That was `` coloring our choices a lot '' with Parker . On the Spider - Man suit , Joe Russo described it as `` a slightly more traditional , Steve Ditko influenced suit , '' and that the film would explore the way the suit operates , particularly the mechanical eyes . Holland chose not to read the whole Civil War script in order to avoid potentially leaking plot information publicly . He is signed on for at least three films , not including his Civil War appearance . Holland later expanded , saying he was signed for `` three Spider - Man movies and three solo movies '' . Frank Grillo as Brock Rumlow / Crossbones : Former commander of S.H.I.E.L.D. 's counter-terrorism S.T.R.I.K.E. team , who was revealed to be an agent of Hydra . On returning to the character , Grillo said `` He 's a badass . He is just vicious . I like the idea that it 's no holds barred . I was 15 pounds bigger when I did Cap 2 , and I 'll put another 15 pounds on to do Cap 3 . '' However , he cautioned that `` This movie is such a big movie with a lot of people in it , so you do n't get as much of the time that you 'd like to have . '' Grillo stated that Rumlow 's main objective in the film is to seek revenge -- `` Whatever Rumlow was feeling as far as being torn between which side he should be on , which I think he was , is gone now . '' William Hurt as Thaddeus `` Thunderbolt '' Ross : The United States Secretary of State and former U.S. Army general dedicated to capturing the Hulk . Hurt , on returning to the MCU after appearing in The Incredible Hulk , said , `` I do n't think it 's a reprise , I think it 's a new iteration completely , '' adding , `` what ( the writers have ) done is they 've taken a character ... and made a new version ... a more modernized style . '' Joe Russo added that Ross was the perfect character to use because he has `` a fanatical anti-superhero point of view '' and has `` become much savvier and more political and has put himself in a position of power , not unlike a Colin Powell . He 's cornering the Avengers politically now , he 's out - maneuvering them . '' Joe also added that Ross was included because the Russos felt it was important to make The Incredible Hulk `` relevant again within the ( MCU ) '' since it `` may have been forgotten about a little bit '' . Daniel Brühl as Helmut Zemo : A Sokovian colonel - turned - terrorist who is obsessed with defeating the Avengers . Zemo , who goes by multiple names in the film , does not wear his signature mask from the comics . Brühl said the version appearing in the film is `` loosely connected '' to the character from the comics and that was a reason he liked Marvel , as `` some of the characters and things they 're dealing with always reference to current events so my character is from a different area than you would think . '' Feige described the character as `` very much a product of the ( Marvel ) Cinematic Universe and all that has occurred within that universe up to this point '' , while Anthony Russo called him `` an everyman . His approach was : I 've seen these guys fight enough to know I ca n't win . But what I can do is figure out ways to undermine them . He 's emotionally driven and he finds a weak spot . '' Brühl , who was cast due to his German accent , did not feel the role was a stereotype , saying , `` It 's not a guy who 's mean and sinister , but he 's actually very clever -- a very smart guy who does everything out of a very understandable reason and motivation . '' Brühl also stated that Zemo may re-appear in future MCU films , with Moore adding that , while Zemo has a purpose in this film , it is more to set up a future film . Additionally , John Slattery and Kerry Condon reprise their roles as Howard Stark and the voice of F.R.I.D.A.Y. from previous MCU films . Martin Freeman is introduced as Everett K. Ross , a member of the CIA 's Joint Counter Terrorism Center and a character associated with Black Panther in the comics . Freeman described Ross as someone who `` works for the American government ... ( and ) works in conjunction with the superheroes , and certain agencies that help to tame the superheroes ' power '' . Feige added that Ross would appear briefly in the film , with the intent being to expand on the character 's role in future films . Marisa Tomei appears as May Parker , Peter Parker 's aunt ; John Kani appears as T'Chaka , father of T'Challa and ruler of Wakanda ; Hope Davis appears as Maria Stark , Tony Stark 's mother ; Gene Farber appears as Vasily Karpov , the Hydra official who oversaw the Winter Soldier program ; and Florence Kasumba portrays Ayo , a member of T'Challa's Dora Milaje . Alfre Woodard , who portrays Mariah Dillard in the MCU TV series Luke Cage , briefly appears in the film as Miriam Sharpe , the mother of an American citizen killed in the battle of Sokovia . Woodard was suggested for the role by Downey before Marvel Studios learned of her casting in Luke Cage . Jim Rash appears as a faculty member at MIT , while Stan Lee makes a cameo appearance as a FedEx deliveryman , and co-director Joe Russo cameos as Theo Broussard , a psychiatrist murdered by Zemo . Damion Poitier , who appeared as Thanos in The Avengers before Josh Brolin was cast in that role for subsequent films , appears as one of Crossbones ' mercenaries . Production ( edit ) Development ( edit ) This is the Civil War of the Cinematic Universe , which will be greatly inspired by the `` Civil War '' of the comic universe , but we have a very different continuity going on ... It 's not about the secret identity thing , as much as it is about , overall , who reports to who , and who can agree to ( an ) oversight committee . Because as of now , in ( Age of Ultron ) , there is no more security council , there is no S.H.I.E.L.D. , obviously . Stark is paying for ( the Avengers ) , Captain America is running it , and things occur that will make governments begin to question . -- Kevin Feige , President of Marvel Studios In March 2014 , Anthony and Joe Russo confirmed that they had signed on to return as directors for a third Captain America film , along with Chris Evans as Captain America , Kevin Feige as producer , and Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely as screenwriters . Markus and McFeely had been working on the screenplay since late 2013 , while the Russo brothers began work in February 2014 . The re-hiring of the directors , three months before the release of Captain America : The Winter Soldier , came as a result of Marvel executives being impressed with test screenings of that film . In an April 2014 interview , Joe Russo described the project as a continuation of the story from Captain America : The Winter Soldier : `` What 's nice about the film is that ... it 's a two - parter . There 's a journey that the Winter Soldier goes on that is n't complete yet . '' That month , Marvel announced a release date of May 6 , 2016 , and Trent Opaloch , who was the cinematographer on The Winter Soldier , said he would return for the sequel . In July , Markus and McFeely stated that they were midway through a first draft for the film , on which principal photography was expected to begin in April 2015 . The following month , they stated that they were looking to make the tone of the film `` an amalgam '' of The First Avenger and The Winter Soldier , with the Russos likening it to a psychological thriller , citing Seven , Fargo , and The Godfather as influences , along with westerns and Brian De Palma 's films . The Russos also stated that `` a good portion of ( Civil War is ) actually funnier than Winter Soldier '' with a more comedic tone and lighter moments throughout . In August 2014 , the Russos stated that the film would be set `` a couple years '' after The Winter Soldier , and would continue to focus on Steve Rogers ' relationship with Bucky Barnes as well as the political themes related to Captain America . Anthony stated , `` The character was invented for an explicitly political purpose . So it 's hard to get away from that nature . '' The Russos also said that they would be `` bringing some new elements to the table that will give us a twist on Winter Soldier '' , and indicated that filming was scheduled to begin in Atlanta . They described themselves as `` ecstatic '' with a first draft of the screenplay submitted by Markus and McFeely , and also stated that the film 's title would be announced `` in a month or so at most '' , and that the concept and title for the film came from Feige , who had it `` for a while '' . In September , Joe expanded by saying the film would have another `` big idea that alters the universe as a whole in some way '' similar to S.H.I.E.L.D. falling in The Winter Soldier . The rest of the film , such as the characters , story , and tone , would be left open to the Russos ' and writers ' interpretations . Pre-production ( edit ) By October 2014 , Robert Downey Jr. had entered final negotiations to reprise his role as Tony Stark / Iron Man in the film . Downey was added in order for the film to adapt the 2006 -- 07 `` Civil War '' comic book storyline written by Mark Millar , which pitted Iron Man against Captain America . At the end of the month , it was confirmed that Sebastian Stan would return as Bucky Barnes / Winter Soldier . A few days later , Marvel revealed that the film would be titled Captain America : Civil War , confirming Downey 's appearance and announcing that Chadwick Boseman would appear in the film as Black Panther ahead of his own solo film . Feige also confirmed that the film would be the first in the MCU 's Phase Three slate of films . Anthony Russo stated that adapting the `` Civil War '' storyline was not always the intended storyline and direction for the film when the brothers initially signed on to return as directors . Markus expanded on this , saying the original concept for a third Captain America film `` never got to draft '' , with Feige at some point telling the writing team to begin adapting `` Civil War '' around their original ideas . McFeely also added that , despite the shift in direction for the film , `` The central theme , even the way Zemo is operating , are from that ( early ) iteration . '' The Russos revealed that , had negotiations with Downey to appear in the film failed , they would have used the Madbomb storyline from the Captain America comics , which was eventually used as a plot point in the first season of the Agent Carter TV series . The premise for the film would have centered on Zemo detonating the Madbomb , which would `` turn hordes of people into berserkers '' to present a physical threat to Captain America , while still pitting heroes against each other , as some would be zombified due to the Madbomb , to satisfy an `` emotional component '' for the film . McFeely said that the idea of basing a film on `` Civil War '' had `` been on and off the table for a while '' at Marvel Studios , explaining , `` it 's a challenge to do it and make sure that all the characters that we 've established , and everyone 's established in the MCU are serviced and sound correct . Because there 's a difference between the characters in `` Civil War '' , which was written in 2006 , 2007 . The MCU does n't exist ( when it was written ) . There is n't a Robert Downey , Jr. or Chris Evans who has helped create the character ( s ) so we need to make sure that that template gets adjusted `` . Joe Russo added that the `` essence '' of `` Civil War '' was used , such as `` the concept of registration , the notion that heroes need to be either monitored or controlled because their power can be scary '' being applicable . Anthony Russo expanded , `` in a lot of ways ( superhero registration ) can be a political issue , and we did n't want the conflict of the movie to solely exist on that level . We wanted to figure out very personal reasons why everyone 's relationship to this idea of registration is going to become complicated . That 's what the relationship between Steve and Bucky allowed us to do , to get very personal in terms of why people would lean one way or the other . '' Executive producer Nate Moore added that `` it felt like it was kind of the right time '' to adapt `` Civil War '' given The Avengers , plus many of the Phase Two films ( Thor : The Dark World , The Winter Soldier , and Avengers : Age of Ultron ) , all dealt with `` world - ending experiences . We felt like we had to tell the next step in that story , which is ... what is the world 's reaction ? '' In November 2014 , Daniel Brühl joined the cast in an unspecified role , while Anthony Mackie and Frank Grillo were confirmed to return as Sam Wilson / Falcon and Brock Rumlow / Crossbones , respectively . Following the November 2014 hacking of Sony Pictures ' computers , emails between Sony Pictures Entertainment co-chairman Amy Pascal and president Doug Belgrad were released stating that Marvel wanted to include Spider - Man ( whose film rights are licensed to Sony ) in the film , but talks between the studios concerning this were believed to have broken down . However , in February 2015 , Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios reached a licensing deal for the use of Spider - Man in an MCU film , and reports indicated that the character would indeed appear in Civil War . The Russos stated they were lobbying for months to include the character in the film . In January 2015 , Mackie revealed that , in addition to Atlanta , filming locations would include Puerto Rico and Berlin , while the Russo brothers confirmed that Scarlett Johansson would return in the film as Natasha Romanoff / Black Widow . Editor Jeffrey Ford , who worked on The Winter Soldier , also signed on for Civil War . In March 2015 , Jeremy Renner was revealed to be reprising his role as Clint Barton / Hawkeye . The next month , it was revealed that the film would be converted to 3D in post-production , and that Brühl would be playing Helmut Zemo . Additionally , Elizabeth Olsen revealed she would reprise her role in the film as Wanda Maximoff / Scarlet Witch . Filming ( edit ) Film set for Captain America : Civil War in Downtown Atlanta Principal photography began on April 27 , 2015 , in Fayette County , Georgia at Pinewood Atlanta Studios , under the working title Sputnik . Other filming locations in the Atlanta metropolitan area included the Buckhead district of Atlanta ; the Peachtree Christian Church in Midtown Atlanta ; Downtown Atlanta , including an area near Philips Arena known as The Gulch , which served as the market in Lagos ; Norcross , Georgia ; Porsche 's headquarters in Atlanta at Aerotropolis Atlanta , which served as the Avengers ' headquarters in the film ; and the Atlanta Civic Center , which served as the IFID ( Institute for Infectious Diseases ) laboratory in Lagos ; the latter 's interiors doubled as MIT , and a third part was used for a Berlin location . Trent Opaloch served as director of photography , while Chad Stahelski , David Leitch , and Spiro Razatos were second unit directors . In early May , Marvel announced that Martin Freeman was cast in an unspecified role , while also reprising roles in the film would be Paul Bettany as Vision , Don Cheadle as James Rhodes / War Machine , Paul Rudd as Scott Lang / Ant - Man , Emily VanCamp as Sharon Carter , and William Hurt as Thaddeus `` Thunderbolt '' Ross , respectively . Samuel L. Jackson , who appeared as Nick Fury in the two previous Captain America films , said he was `` surprised '' to discover that he would not be in Captain America : Civil War , after `` the Russo Brothers told ( him he ) was . '' Moore stated that Fury was not included `` because he did n't add anything to the Civil War story they were telling '' , while Markus stated that they did not want him to choose any particular side because `` that 's not his place in the universe '' . On each of the character 's ties to the plot , Anthony Russo said that each character was examined on a personal level to see how they would respond to the idea of registration . On the portrayal of each character , Joe Russo said that he and his brother had strong `` emotional '' and `` psychological connection ( s ) to ( these ) characters '' as children , adding , `` We want to reach into that and understand what elementally motivated you to love the character . That 's what we try to bring out in the characters now . '' He also mentioned that they were `` trying to honor the feeling of naturalism and to honor the feeling of reality ( with the film ) . '' After the reveal of the film 's full cast , many outlets and fans began referring to the film as `` Avengers 2.5 `` , given the variety and ensemble nature of the cast , usually reserved for the Avengers films , and the fact that the film no longer felt like a Captain America - centric one , as with The Winter Soldier . In response to this , Feige said , `` What 's fun about Civil War though is , as you know from the comics , it 's a very simple story . And it really has to be , to accommodate that many players . It 's very much a Captain America movie and it 's very much a sequel to the Winter Soldier in ways I do n't think people ( will expect ) ... It 's a very simple structure that allows you to have these amazing character interactions in a way that I do n't think becomes overwhelming . '' Feige also revealed that Hope van Dyne / Wasp was in an original draft of the film , after receiving the Wasp costume at the end of Ant - Man , but was cut because `` there are so many characters in Civil War that we did n't want to do her a disservice , '' saying Marvel was `` saving '' the character for a better environment to reveal van Dyne in the Wasp costume for the first time and see `` her dynamic with Scott ( Lang ) in a way it could play out '' . At the end of May , the Russo brothers , along with Feige and Pascal , held a screen test in Atlanta for six teenage actors that were being eyed for the role of Peter Parker / Spider - Man , with the actors testing against Downey and Evans for `` chemistry '' ; Tom Holland was cast as the character the next month , to also appear in a solo film . The Russos `` were pretty vocal about who we wanted for the part '' , pushing to cast an actor close to the age of Peter Parker in the comics , in order to differentiate from the previous portrayals . They also praised Holland for having a dancing and gymnastics background . At the time , Marvel did not confirm his involvement in Civil War , due to being contractually obligated not to talk about his inclusion publicly . The Russos discussed this , saying that the various business deals and agreements stemming from the sharing of the character rights , such as on a promotional and commercial level , `` were always lagging slightly behind how we were using the character . We were always in danger of upsetting the deal -- there were still sensitive issues going on between the two studios that they needed to agree on . '' Holland was confirmed to appear in the film in July 2015 , by Jonathan M. Goldstein , one of the writers of the solo Spider - Man film , and later by Entertainment Weekly from a set visit . Jon Watts , director of Spider - Man : Homecoming , was on set for the filming of Spider - Man 's scenes , in order to `` see what they were doing with it , and that informed where we eventually took it , '' and provide `` ideas about this and that '' , such as what Parker 's wardrobe and bedroom should look like , `` to make sure we were all on the same page so that ( Homecoming ) transitions seamlessly with theirs . '' Anthony Russo stated that , despite Marvel telling them to have a `` plan B '' should the deal with Sony fail , the Russos never created one because `` it was very important to us to reintroduce '' Spider - Man in the film , adding , `` We only have envisioned the movie with Spider - Man . '' By the end of June , filming reached the halfway mark , with production moving to Germany in early August . Filming locations in Germany included the Olympic Stadium in Berlin , and the Leipzig / Halle Airport in Schkeuditz . Additional filming also took place in Puerto Rico and Norway , and was scheduled to in Iceland . Principal photography wrapped on August 22 , 2015 . Captain America : Civil War was the first film to use IMAX 's digital 2D cameras , made in partnership with Arri , which was a customized version of the Arri Alexa 65 . According to Joe Russo , approximately fifteen minutes of the film , the sequence where the two factions fight at Leipzig / Halle Airport , which was described as having `` incredible scale to it '' and referred to by the directors as the `` splash panel '' , were shot with the cameras . Opaloch noted that there were discussions late in pre-production to shoot the entire film with the Alexa 65 cameras . However , because of how close it was to the start of shooting as well as the idea being `` such a large - scale undertaking '' , it was decided to only use them for the airport sequence , with the rest of film being shot on Arri Alexa XT digital cameras . For the airport sequence , Opaloch rigged the Alexa 65s to a Technocrane , a Steadicam , a dolly as well as a drone for flyover shots , which had its own dedicated team operating it . Because of the amount of resolution the Aleax 65s offered , Opaloch chose to use medium close - ups instead of close - ups , and for his wide shots , hold the shot a bit longer , `` maybe with a slight camera move that allows the viewer to take it all in . '' Post-production ( edit ) In September 2015 , Mark Ruffalo , who plays Bruce Banner / Hulk in the MCU films , stated that his character was originally in the Civil War script , but was removed due to the end of Age of Ultron , as Marvel did not `` want to reveal where ( he is ) and why '' in this film . Markus added that as soon as the Hulk joined a side , the fight would be quickly over , saying , `` You 've got to kind of choose your roster ( of characters ) depending on what kind of fight you want to have . '' He later explained that he contemplated having the Hulk appear at the very end of the film , but decided against it , feeling that he was over-stuffing the film with characters , adding , `` ( The Hulk ) has clearly gone somewhere at the end of ( Age of ) Ultron , and that 's a story . Do n't blow it off and put it in a little tiny chunk just to put in a little extra filigree on our movie . '' Additionally , Ross ' alter ego , Red Hulk , was also considered for inclusion , but the Russos felt that part of the character would need a proper backstory which they could not afford to give in the already crowded film . They felt that Ross `` was there sort of as the government 's agenda and not to add another complicated super powered character to the mix . '' Spider - Man 's Iron Spider suit was also considered . That November , Joe Russo stated that the theme of the film was betrayal , calling it `` extremely emotional . ( The film ) hinges on that emotion , and on a very personal level we did n't want ( it ) to become about politics and people arguing about platitudes . The third act is built around a very personal moment between ( Captain America and Iron Man ) . '' The Russos spent a great deal of time with Markus , McFeely , and Moore to ensure each character 's emotional arc tracked through the entire film correctly , though realized that at some point `` you have to sacrifice logic for expediency '' . Speaking about the post-production process in January 2016 , the Russo brothers said , `` This has been the easiest post process we 've ever had on a film . We 're very happy with how the movie was . Everyone is very happy with where the movie was . For us , the tricky thing is the effects because it 's a very complicated movie and there are some really big sequences in the film . The effects are on a much larger scale than the work we did on Winter Soldier . That 's the part that becomes really difficult because you do n't have a lot of time and everyone has very high standards . So everyone starts killing themselves at this point ... we 'll be done with the movie in two and a half months . '' They also stated that the film would be doing `` a few reshoots '' in mid-to - late January . In February , Freeman 's character was revealed to be Everett K. Ross , and Gwyneth Paltrow was reported to have joined the film for the January reshoots , reprising her role as Pepper Potts ; however , in April 2016 , it was revealed that Paltrow does not appear in the film , with Anthony Russo explaining that Paltrow 's contract with Marvel had ended after Iron Man 3 , and `` we decided early on that we could make Pepper 's break - up ( with Tony Stark ) have an emotional impact without actually having a scene with her . '' On March 16 , 2016 , the Russo stated the film was `` about a week and a half away from '' completion , with Joe adding that the film would have a post-credits scene , with the possibility for two or three total . The film was completed on April 4 , 2016 . Later in April , Alfre Woodard and Jim Rash were revealed to be cast in the film , while Feige explained that Black Panther director Ryan Coogler contributed some dialogue for Black Panther in several scenes during reshoots . At the film 's premiere , it was revealed that Marisa Tomei appears in the film as May Parker , Peter Parker 's aunt . Visual effects ( edit ) Original ( top ) and postvisualization ( bottom ) shots of the fight scene at Leipzig / Halle Airport Nearly 20 visual effects studios worked on Captain America : Civil War including Industrial Light & Magic ( ILM ) , Lola VFX , Method Studios , Luma Pictures , Dneg , Image Engine , Trixter , Cinesite , and The Third Floor amongst others . Lola VFX de-aged Downey Jr. in a scene that involved a younger holographic version of himself . Lola VFX 's visual effects supervisor , Trent Claus said , `` In this case , we analyzed footage of Mr. Downey at the approximate age that we wanted to target , which was around the time of the film Less Than Zero ( when Downey was in his early 20s ) . '' He also noted the difficulty of the scene , due to it being close to 4,000 frames , and the fact that Downey was moving his head from side to side multiple times . Lola also worked on visual effects for the Vision . The Third Floor extensively previsualized the film including the fight scene at Leipzig / Halle Airport . Gerardo Ramirez , the Previs and Postvis Supervisor for The Third Floor said : We visualized most of the major scenes in the film , some that were more story driven and some that were more action and story driven . The Russos used various methods for planning and they used each department for what it does best . The early edits were a combination of storyboards , previs and stunt performance clips . Stunts would choreograph the hand - to - hand action while the storyboards would be used for character story moments and previs was used for the big action scenes that involved many digital characters . Method Studios , which worked on 440 shots , was responsible for the helicopter sequence in the middle of the film and the climatic fight between Iron Man , Bucky , and Captain America . The original intent for the helicopter sequence was to place the scene next to the Paul - Löbe - Haus , where the Bundestag meets ; however , the location was not allowed to be shown in the film , resulting in Method needing to create a full CGI background . For the climatic fight , one of the challenges for Method was getting the color of Iron Man 's suit correct , opting to go with a more `` classic Iron Man look versus the really glossy car paint look '' that Iron Man had in the previous Avengers films . ILM was primarily responsible for the visual effects during the large - scale fight sequence at the airport , along with creating the digital assets for all of the characters . VFX supervisor Russell Earl , stated that the 20 minute scene grew to be an almost fully digital sequence explaining , `` We ultimately ended up replacing 99 % of everything that was shot with the actors being lifted from the background . Originally both Spider - Man and Black Panther were planned to be photographed elements but we ended up almost completely replacing them . '' Luma Pictures , who also worked on Winter Soldier , was assigned with completing shots of Bucky 's arm and his metal brainwashing chair . They also worked on Bucky 's escape from the task force lobby and designed Iron Man 's new hybrid nanotechnology armor , which was an homage to the character 's Bleeding Edge armor from the comics . Their work totaled approximately 200 shots . Design firm Sarofsky once again worked on the film 's main - on - end title sequence , having done the same for Winter Soldier . The sequence used `` muted and mottled , burnt umber and steel blue and cold grey '' colors , which were stark contrasts to the sequences for Winter Soldier and The First Avenger ( the later created by Method Design ) which were `` a minimalist graphic approach , reducing the key players to silhouettes and paring the palette down to three colors '' and `` vibrant and iconic propaganda art comes to life , enticing the viewer to join the fray '' , respectively . Creative director Erin Sarofsky noted one of the challenges for Civil War 's sequence was `` to make it feel like a Captain America title sequence and not an Avengers sequence '' given the number of characters in the film . Music ( edit ) Main articles : Captain America : Civil War ( soundtrack ) and Music of the Marvel Cinematic Universe Henry Jackman returned from Winter Soldier to score the sequel . He found the movie to be tonally different from the previous one , which necessitated a much more symphonic and orchestral score . This culminates in the final fight between Captain America , Winter Soldier , and Iron Man , the music for which Jackman described as `` somewhat operatic and ... almost classical in its style '' . Though Jackman reprised and developed his themes for Captain America and the Winter Soldier from the previous film , and introduced motifs for the new characters Spider - Man , Black Panther , and Zemo , he was wary of pushing the audience to one side of the central conflict or the other by using character - specific music ; Jackman composed a new main theme for the film to represent the Civil War , `` a generic theme to balance everything out '' , `` toward which all the characters can gravitate . It wrapped them all up and it helped to bind the movie together rather than do endless disparate themes . '' Jackman also wrote a thriller theme that appears whenever the mystery surrounding Zemo 's plan is explored . This was inspired by the works of Jerry Goldsmith . The score was released on a soundtrack album by Hollywood Records on May 6 , 2016 . Release ( edit ) Premiere of Captain America : Civil War at the Marina Bay Sands in Singapore Captain America : Civil War premiered at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood on April 12 , 2016 , and was screened at CinemaCon 2016 on April 13 . The film 's Southeast Asia premiere was held on April 21 at the Marina Bay Sands resort in Singapore , while the European premiere took place at Vue Cinemas in Westfield London on April 26 . The film was released internationally starting from April 27 , releasing in 61 countries its first weekend , including the United Kingdom on April 29 . The North America release on May 6 , took place in over 4,200 theaters , of which 3,300 were in 3D , along with 378 IMAX theaters , 480 premium large - format , and 161 D - Box locations . Internationally , the film opened in 955 IMAX theaters , while South Korea saw Civil War open in an `` unprecedented '' 1,989 theaters . In September 2014 , TNT acquired the cable broadcast rights for Captain America : Civil War to air two years after its theatrical release . Marketing ( edit ) In early July 2015 , Marvel began a viral marketing campaign for Ant - Man featuring Leslie Bibb , reprising her role from the Iron Man films as journalist Christine Everhart , reporting for the faux news program , WHIH Newsfront . In one program , Everhart discusses events leading to Captain America : Civil War . The post-credits scene for Ant - Man featured footage shot by the Russo brothers for Captain America : Civil War , showing Wilson and Rogers with Barnes in their custody , and unable to contact Stark because of `` the accords '' ; Wilson mentions that he `` know ( s ) a guy '' , implying Lang . Feige explained that when the post-credit sequence appears in Civil War it may appear with `` different takes ... different angles . '' Stan said the scene was shot in early May 2015 , and would appear in the middle of Civil War . The first footage of the film debuted in August 2015 at the D23 Expo . Additional footage was shown in September 2015 at the Asia Pop Comic Convention . The footage shown at the D23 Expo and 2015 Asia Pop Comic Convention received an overwhelmingly positive response from the audiences . The first trailer for the film debuted on Jimmy Kimmel Live ! on November 25 , 2015 , and within hours became the number one trending topic on Twitter . The trailer was viewed 61 million times in the first 24 hours of release , surpassing the 34 million views of Avengers : Age of Ultron 's in 2014 . Scott Mendelson of Forbes called the trailer a `` doozy '' and noted that the early debut ahead of the release of Star Wars : The Force Awakens was a `` good show '' on behalf of Disney as it was `` a way to not get lost amid the 8,000 other trailers debuting with Star Wars '' . Mendelson also noted that based on the trailer 's content , the film was being `` sold as Captain America 3 , as opposed to Avengers 2.5 or Iron Man 4 , '' which could help keep the film 's box office expectations in check . On February 4 , 2016 , Marvel released their own version of the Facebook `` # FriendsDay '' video for Captain America . The video mirrors those created by Facebook for users to celebrate the anniversary of Facebook 's founding , and features images of Captain America 's `` friends '' the Winter Soldier , Thor , Falcon and Hawkeye . The video concludes with an image of Captain America and Iron Man being torn in half . Jennifer Konerman of The Hollywood Reporter called the video `` timely '' and its contents `` especially relevant considering the storyline '' of Civil War . Three days later , a teaser debuted during Super Bowl 50 , which received the most social media activity out of all the film trailers released that day . Anthony Breznican of Entertainment Weekly said the footage `` actually feels a little more like a teaser ( than a full trailer ) , since it shows some new shots , but really does n't reveal much more about the story . '' Additionally , he felt the chanting `` unseen voices calling out , ' United ... We ... Stand ' and ' Divided ... We ... Fall ' '' had `` a football stadium vibe '' , complimenting it appearing during the Super Bowl . Mendelson added that Marvel did not need to follow the model used for The Winter Soldier during Super Bowl XLVIII of showing a longer trailer after the teaser since Civil War was `` frankly ( a ) higher - profile sequel . '' Overall , Mendelson felt the spot was `` only a little less low - key and small ( er ) - scale as the trailer that debuted in '' November 2015 , and sold the `` real world '' aspect `` with character drama and mostly real - world action between would - be superheroes . '' Four days later , on Valentine 's Day , the Facebook campaign was continued , with Marvel creating a `` faux - status update '' for Captain America , showing his relationship status had changed to `` In a Complicated Relationship with Iron Man '' . At The Walt Disney Company 's annual shareholder meeting in the Auditorium Theatre in March , CEO Bob Iger presented a clip from the film to `` generous applause '' . From March 7 to March 10 , Marvel released individual posters for characters in the film , continued its Facebook campaign with two teaser videos showcasing the participants on `` Team Cap '' and `` Team Iron Man '' , and released a second trailer . The trailer was viewed close to 95 million times within the first 24 hours of release , surpassing the views achieved by the first trailer . In addition , 240,000 social media posts across Twitter , Tumblr , Instagram , and Facebook , among others , were made related to the trailer , surpassing the 81,000 the Age of Ultron trailer received in 2014 . According to internet analytics firm ZEFR , the trailer was viewed over 62 million times from YouTube and Facebook over four days , making it the second most viewed trailer at the time , behind the 64.6 million views for the first Star Wars : The Force Awakens trailer . It also became the top trailer in 2016 through March 13 , 2016 , according to research firm ListenFirst , for receiving the most likes , retweets and other engagement on Twitter . The trailer continued to be the top viewed trailer on YouTube and Facebook for three straight weeks according to ZEFR , receiving more than 96 million total views since its release . Mendelson called the trailer `` a textbook case for unnecessary second pitches ... Is there anyone out there who watched that first teaser back in December and said ' Hmm , it looks good and all , but I need more evidence ' ? '' He added that he was `` a little disappointed by the big Spider - Man reveal , '' having previously wondered , after a Spider - Man character poster was not released with the others , if Marvel would have the `` courage '' to not include the character in any marketing materials before the film 's release , letting the `` Peter Parker scenes the film has to offer be something that is a surprise for theatrical moviegoers and / or something that drives post-opening weekend buzz '' . Mendelson 's colleague at Forbes Mark Hughes felt differently , noting that the trailer was targeting the general audience rather than just fans by giving `` us more explanation ( and context ) of why a clearly major battle is raging between Captain America and Iron Man '' , and by including Spider - Man since `` there are plenty of surprises in these movies , and since we all already know Spider - Man is in Civil War , refusing to let us see him would frankly be a bit weird and pointless ... it 's common for average filmgoers to hear some final bit of information or see some final image and feel compelled , inspired , or otherwise driven to go out to the movies that day . There are any number of factors that can come into play ... and the world needed to see ( Spider - Man ) because it 's the sort of value - added element that can make ( a ) difference '' . Graeme McMillan of The Hollywood Reporter felt that the Spider - Man reveal `` alone makes the trailer '' , describing it as feeling `` like the comic book character come to life . That awkward , voice - cracking , ' hey everyone ' was as humble , playing - it - cool and cocky as he should be . '' With the film seemingly continuing plot threads first introduced in Age of Ultron , Mendelson wondered `` to what extent the whole ' Consequences galore ! ' narrative of Civil War will improve Age of Ultron . As much great stuff as that movie has ... ( it ultimately shows ) the main hero foolishly / recklessly ( bring ) a world - killing threat to Earth and lots of really bad stuff goes down and yet no one seems to care at the end ... What does it mean if Civil War does retroactively improve Age of Ultron ? Will we be at a point where we really ca n't judge a franchise installment on its own merits because a future installment may well fix the flaws a couple years down the line ? '' McMillan continued some of Mendelson 's thinking , feeling that Marvel was `` in an awkward place with Civil War '' regarding superhero destruction moving forward . He wondered how superhero oversight would `` actually prevent the kind of destruction that it 's meant to stop ... unless the bad guys all agree to play by the new rules '' as well . `` Worse still ... the destruction caused by superhero fights ( should now be ) foremost in viewers ' heads ... the audience wo n't be able to enjoy the sight of the Hulk smashing a random minion through a wall without thinking of the property damage and / or whoever was standing on the other side of that wall . After Civil War , can Marvel go back to pretending that everyone is okay after any large scale event ever again ? '' Also in March , Marvel , in partnership with the National Academy of Sciences Science & Entertainment Exchange , Dolby Laboratories , Broadcom , and Synchrony Bank , announced the `` Girls Reforming the Future Challenge '' , aimed at females aged 15 through 18 in STEM ( Science , Technology , Engineering , and Mathematics education ) fields , to submit projects they feel can change the world and have far - reaching effects . Five winners would attend the world premiere at the Dolby Theatre , and receive a tour of Walt Disney Studios and a $500 saving account from Synchrony Bank , with one grand prize winner receiving an internship at Marvel Studios .

Critical response ( edit ) The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported a 91 % approval rating based on 358 reviews , with an average rating of 7.6 / 10 . The website 's critical consensus reads , `` Captain America : Civil War begins the next wave of Marvel movies with an action - packed superhero blockbuster boasting a decidedly non-cartoonish plot and the courage to explore thought - provoking themes . '' Metacritic , which uses a weighted average , assigned a score of 75 out of 100 based on 52 critics , indicating `` generally favorable reviews '' . Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an `` A '' grade on a scale of A+ to F . Justin Chang of Variety called it `` the most mature and substantive picture to have yet emerged from the Marvel Cinematic Universe . '' Sheri Linden of The Hollywood Reporter said , `` Call it ' civil war ' or call it brand extension ; call it a ' cinematic universe ' or a corporate behemoth -- the latest Marvel extravaganza furthers the studio 's cross-pollination of action franchises in a way that 's sure to satisfy devotees . '' Robbie Collin of The Daily Telegraph wrote , `` This is the cinematic superhero showdown you 've dreamt of since childhood , precisely because that 's everything -- and all -- it wants to be . '' Catherine Shoard of The Guardian called it , `` a huge aspartame rush of a film : a giant irresistible snack , not nutritious , but very tasty . '' Richard Roeper of the Chicago Sun - Times wrote , `` Kudos to co-directors Anthony and Joe Russo and the team of writers for juggling more than a dozen comic - book characters and nearly that many plot lines , and only occasionally getting us ( and by us I mean me ) lost in the geek weeds . '' Kenneth Turan of the Los Angeles Times said , `` If you live and breathe Marvel , this is one of the MCU 's stronger offerings . If you are a spy coming in from the cold , the answer is not so clear . '' A.O. Scott of The New York Times wrote , `` Captain America : Civil War does not in any way transcend the conventions of the genre . On the contrary : It succeeds because it does n't really try . '' Conversely , Stephen Whitty of the New York Daily News said , `` Although it 's called Captain America : Civil War , the latest Marvel movie is actually a supersized Avengers picture -- overstuffed to bursting . And sometimes during its two and a half hour running time , it just goes bust . '' Mick LaSalle of the San Francisco Chronicle said , `` As a work of thought , Civil War is compromised , but at least there are thoughts to compromise . As an action film , it has its moments , but aside from the big opening sequence -- the action scenes are a bit flat . '' Andrew O'Hehir writing for Salon said , `` Much of Captain America : Civil War is just the laborious working - out of leftover dangling plot elements from Captain America : The Winter Soldier two summers ago . '' While Nicholas Barber of BBC gave the film a generally favorable review , praising both its visuals and action sequences , he criticized the fact that there was `` no cogent reason for any of ( the Avengers ) to be on one side or the other , which is why their inevitable dust - up feels like a game of dodgeball in a school playground . '' Mark Millar , writer of the `` Civil War '' comic storyline on which the film was based , felt the film `` had a good opening twenty ( minutes ) , but then I honestly ca n't remember what the movie was about . '' He also felt the film lacked levity , especially considering the Russo brothers ' background in comedy .

Her father , Ilya Spektor , is a photographer and amateur violinist . Her mother , Bella Spektor , was a music professor in a Soviet college of music and teaches at a public elementary school in Mount Vernon , New York . She has a brother Boruch ( also known as Bear ) , who was featured in track 7 , `` * * * '' , or `` Whisper '' , of her 2004 album , Soviet Kitsch . Growing up in Moscow , Regina learned how to play the piano by practising on a Petrof upright that her grandfather gave her mother . She grew up listening to classical music and famous Russian bards like Vladimir Vysotsky and Bulat Okudzhava . Her father , who obtained recordings in Eastern Europe and traded cassettes with friends in the Soviet Union , also exposed her to rock and roll bands such as the Beatles , Queen , and the Moody Blues . The family left the Soviet Union in 1989 , when Regina was nine and a half , during the period of Perestroika , when Soviet citizens were permitted to emigrate . Regina had to leave her piano behind . The seriousness of her piano studies led her parents to consider not leaving the Soviet Union , but they finally decided to emigrate , due to the racial , ethnic , and political discrimination that Jews faced . Traveling first to Austria and then Italy , the Spektor family was admitted to the United States as refugees with the assistance of HIAS ( the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society ) . They settled in the Bronx , where Spektor graduated from the SAR Academy , a Jewish day middle school in the Riverdale section of the Bronx . Since the family had been unable to bring their piano from Moscow , Spektor practiced on tabletops and other hard surfaces until she found a piano on which to play in the basement of her synagogue . In New York City , Spektor studied classical piano with Sonia Vargas , a professor at the Manhattan School of Music , until she was 17 ; Spektor 's father had met Vargas through Vargas ' husband , violinist Samuel Marder . Spektor attended high school for two years at the Frisch School , a yeshiva in Paramus , New Jersey , but transferred to a public school , Fair Lawn High School , in Fair Lawn , New Jersey , where she finished the last two years of her high school education . Spektor was originally interested in classical music only , but later became interested in hip hop , rock , and punk as well . Although she had always made up songs around the house , she first became interested in more formal songwriting during a visit to Israel with the Nesiya Institute in her teenage years when she attracted attention from the other children on the trip for the songs she made up while hiking . Following this trip , she was exposed to the works of Joni Mitchell , Ani DiFranco , and other singer - songwriters , which encouraged her belief that she could create her own songs . She wrote her first a cappella songs around the age of 16 and her first songs for voice and piano when she was nearly 18 . Spektor completed the four - year studio composition program of the Conservatory of Music at Purchase College within three years , graduating with honors in 2001 . Around this time , she also worked briefly at a butterfly farm in Luck , Wisconsin , and studied in Tottenham ( in North London ) for one term .

After the tour , Kings of Leon who were the second opening act on the tour , invited Spektor to open for them on their own European tour . In 2004 , Spektor signed a contract with Warner Brothers ' record label Sire Records to publish and distribute her third album Soviet Kitsch , originally self - released in 2003 .

The album debuted at number 70 on the Billboard 200 , but due to the popularity of the single `` Fidelity '' , it went on to peak at number 20 , and was certified Gold by the RIAA .

In 2017 , Spektor was featured as a guest singer on the title track to Gypsy - punk band Gogol Bordello 's studio album , Seekers and Finders . Voice and style ( edit ) Spektor in concert , February 2006 Spektor 's primary instrument is the piano though she plays the guitar as a secondary instrument , primarily playing on a seafoam Epiphone Wildkat archtop hollow - body electric guitar for live performances . Spektor has said that she has created a great number of songs but rarely writes any of them down . Spektor 's songs are not usually autobiographical but are based on scenarios and characters drawn from her imagination . Her songs show influences from folk , punk , rock , Jewish , Russian , hip hop , jazz , and classical music . Spektor has said that she works hard to ensure that each of her songs has its own musical style , rather than trying to develop a distinctive style for her music as a whole : `` It does n't feel natural for me to write some diary type song . I want to write a classic like Yesterday but weird songs about meatballs in refrigerators come into my head -- I ca n't help it . '' Spektor performs using a broad vocal range , with a falsetto extension , but without any apparent break . She explores a variety of different and somewhat unorthodox vocal techniques , such as verses composed entirely of buzzing noises made with the lips and beatbox - style flourishes in the middle of ballads , and also makes use of such unusual musical techniques as using a drum stick to tap rhythms on the body of a chair . Part of her style also results from the exaggeration of certain aspects of vocalization , most notably the glottal stop , prominent in the single `` Fidelity '' . She also uses a strong New York accent on some words , which she has said is due to her love of New York and its culture . Her lyrics are equally eclectic , often taking the form of abstract narratives or first - person character studies , similar to short stories or vignettes put to song . Spektor usually sings in English , though she sometimes includes a few words or verses of Latin , Russian , French , and other languages in her songs . She also plays with pronunciations , which she said on a NPR interview to be a remnant of her early years when she listened to pop in English without understanding the lyrics . Some of Spektor 's lyrics include literary allusions , such as : F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ernest Hemingway in `` Poor Little Rich Boy '' ; The Little Prince in `` Baobabs '' ; Virginia Woolf and Margaret Atwood in `` Paris '' ; Ezra Pound and William Shakespeare in `` Pound of Flesh '' , Boris Pasternak in `` Après Moi '' ; Samson and Delilah in `` Samson '' ; Oedipus Rex in `` Oedipus '' ; Edith Wharton 's Ethan Frome in `` 2.99 ¢ Blues '' . Recurring themes and topics in Spektor 's lyrics include love , death , religion ( particularly Biblical and Jewish references ) , city life ( particularly New York references ) , and certain key phrases which recur in different songs , such as references to gravediggers , the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil and the name `` Mary Ann '' . Spektor 's use of satire is evident in `` Wasteside '' , which refers to The Twelve Chairs , the classic satirical novel by the Soviet authors Ilf and Petrov , and describes the town in which people are born , get their hair cut , and then are sent to the cemetery . Spektor 's first , self - released album , 11 : 11 , was recorded and self - released while she was still in college . The album differs from Spektor 's later releases as she was heavily influenced by blues and jazz at the time of its recording . Her second album , Songs , was recorded on Christmas Day , 2001 . Each song was recorded with just one take and is entirely acoustic . The session from which the album was derived was not originally intended as an album recording session . Her third album , Soviet Kitsch , featured strings on several songs and was her first to feature a full rock band . Upon signing with a major label which in turn provided a bigger budget for production and studio time , Spektor 's albums began to put more emphasis into song production and feature more prominent use of traditional pop and rock instruments . Spektor says the records that most impact her are those of `` bands whose music is really involved '' , specifically naming the Beatles , Bob Dylan , Billie Holiday , Radiohead , Tom Waits , and Frédéric Chopin as primary influences .

Nashville Songwriter ( s ) Kostas Producer ( s ) Gregg Brown Travis Tritt singles chronology `` Nothing Short of Dying '' ( 1992 ) `` Lord Have Mercy on the Working Man '' ( 1992 ) `` Can I Trust You with My Heart '' ( 1992 ) `` Nothing Short of Dying '' ( 1992 ) ' `` Lord Have Mercy on the Working Man '' ' ( 1992 ) `` Can I Trust You with My Heart '' ( 1992 ) `` Lord Have Mercy on the Working Man '' is a song written by Kostas and recorded by American country music singer Travis Tritt . It was released in August 1992 as the first of five singles from his third studio album , T-R-O-U-B-L-E . The song became Tritt 's tenth entry on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks ( now Hot Country Songs ) charts , where it peaked at number 5 . Contents ( hide ) 1 Content 2 Critical reception 3 Music video 4 Chart performance 5 References 6 External links Content ( edit ) `` Lord Have Mercy on the Working Man '' is a moderate up - tempo whose lyrics centralize on a theme of economic injustice towards blue collar workers . The instrumentation features various forms of percussion from Sam Bacco , including crotales , wobble board , spoons and a broom . Richard Bennett and Wendell Cox play guitar solos before the third verse , and Brooks & Dunn , T. Graham Brown , George Jones , Little Texas , Dana McVicker , Tanya Tucker and Porter Wagoner all sing background vocals on the final chorus . Critical reception ( edit ) Teresa M. Walker , in her review for the Gainesville Sun , said that with the assistance from superstars on the final chorus , the song `` should shoot up the charts . '' Dave Larsen of the Dayton Daily News cited it as one of the stronger tracks on the album , saying that the album `` works best when Tritt sticks with the populist approach . '' Alanna Nash of Entertainment Weekly said of the song , `` Tritt finds a solid image for his laborer 's lament ( ... ) But the melody is so slight that he resorts to an acoustic arrangement that evokes Jimmie Rodgers and the young Roy Acuff . '' Deborah Evans Price , of Billboard magazine gave the song a mixed review , saying that while the final chorus of song features famous country artists , it was too bad that the entire song is n't as strong as the last verse . Music video ( edit ) Jack Cole directed the song 's music video . In the book Country Music Culture : From Hard Times to Heaven , Curtis W. Ellison wrote that the song 's music video `` confronted a litany of personal oppressions attributed to government policy '' that coincided with Bill Clinton 's presidential campaign . Chart performance ( edit ) `` Lord Have Mercy on the Working Man '' spent 20 weeks on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks ( now Hot Country Songs ) charts in 1992 , peaking at number 5 . The song also reached number 10 on the Canadian RPM Country Tracks charts .

List of United States federal legislation - wikipedia List of United States federal legislation Jump to : navigation , search This article includes a list of references , but its sources remain unclear because it has insufficient inline citations . Please help to improve this article by introducing more precise citations. ( April 2016 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) See also : Category : United States federal legislation This is a chronological , but still incomplete , list of United States federal legislation . Congress has enacted approximately 200 -- 600 statutes during each of its 115 biennial terms , so that more than 20,000 statutes have been enacted since 1789 . At the federal level in the United States , legislation ( i.e. , `` statutes '' or `` statutory law '' ) consists exclusively of Acts passed by the Congress of the United States and its predecessor , the Continental Congress , that were either signed into law by the President or passed by Congress after a presidential veto . Legislation is not the only source of regulations with the force of law . However , most executive branch and Judicial Branch regulations must originate in a congressional grant of power . See also : Executive orders of the President ; regulations of Executive branch departments and administrative agencies ; and the procedural rules of the federal courts . Contents ( hide ) 1 Publication of the law 1.1 Statutes at Large ( Stat . ) 1.2 Sessions ( Sess . ) and Chapters ( ch . ) 1.3 Public laws 1.4 Examples 2 Congress of the Confederation 3 United States Congress 3.1 1789 to 1901 : 1st through 56th Congresses 3.2 1901 to 2001 : 57th through 106th Congresses 3.3 2001 to present : 107th and subsequent Congresses 4 See also 5 Sources 6 References Publication of the law ( edit ) Statutes at Large ( Stat. . ) ( edit ) Acts of Congress are published in the United States Statutes at Large . Volumes 1 through 18 , which have all the statutes passed from 1789 to 1875 , are available on - line at the Library of Congress , here . In the list below , statutes are listed by X Stat . Y , where X is the volume of the Statutes at Large and Y is the page number , as well as either the chapter or Public Law number . See examples below . Sessions ( Sess. . ) and Chapters ( ch. . ) ( edit ) Each Congress has two to four sessions . Under the numbering system used from 1789 until 1957 , the Acts in each session are numbered sequentially as Chapters . This numbering included both laws applicable to the general public and laws relating to specific individuals , e.g. , to grant pensions to disabled veterans . Public laws ( edit ) Since 1957 , Acts of Congress related to the general public have been designated in the form : Public Law X-Y where X is the number of the ordinal Congress and Y is the number of the chronological order of the public Act in that Congress . This numbering is continuous across sessions of Congress and does not include acts relating to individuals , which are analogously given Private Law X-Y designations . ( From 1901 to 1957 , the Statutes at Large listed both a chapter and a Public / Private number for each act ) See examples below. There are many laws . Examples ( edit ) The Militia Act of 1862 of July 17 , 1862 , Sess. 2 , ch. 201 , was the 201st Act of the second session of the 37th Congress . The National Banking Act of February 25 , 1863 , Sess. 3 , ch. 58 , was the 58th Act of the third session of the 37th Congress . The Global Anti-Semitism Review Act of 2004 of October 16 , 2004 , Pub. L. 108 -- 332 , 118 Stat. 1282 , was the 332nd Act of Congress ( statute ) passed in the 108th Congress .

Large denominations of United States currency - wikipedia Large denominations of United States currency Jump to : navigation , search This article needs additional citations for verification . Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources . Unsourced material may be challenged and removed . ( February 2016 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) Large denominations of United States currency greater than $100 were circulated by the United States Treasury until 1969 . Since then , U.S. dollar banknotes have only been issued in seven denominations : $1 , $2 , $5 , $10 , $20 , $50 , and $100 . Contents ( hide ) 1 Overview and history 2 Public versus institutional use 3 Passive retirement 4 In popular culture 5 High - denomination ( HD ) banknote issuing data 6 High - denomination United States banknotes 7 See also 8 References 8.1 Footnotes 8.2 Notes 8.3 Bibliography 9 External links Overview and history ( edit ) Large - denomination currency ( i.e. , banknotes with a face value of $500 or higher ) had been used in the United States since the late 18th century . The first $500 note was issued by the Province of North Carolina , authorized by legislation dated May 10 , 1780 . Virginia quickly followed suit and authorized the printing of $500 and $1,000 notes on October 16 , 1780 and $2,000 notes on May 7 , 1781 . High - denomination treasury notes were issued , for example during the War of 1812 ( $1,000 notes authorized by an act dated June 30 , 1812 ) . During the American Civil War Confederate currency included $500 and $1,000 notes . During the Federal banknote issuing period ( 1861 to present ) , the earliest high - denomination notes included three - year Interest - bearing notes of $500 , $1,000 , and $5,000 , authorized by Congress on July 17 , 1861 . In total , 11 different types of U.S. currency were issued in high - denomination notes across nearly 20 different series dates . The obverse of United States banknotes generally depict either historical figures , allegorical figures symbolizing significant concepts ( e.g. , liberty , justice ) , or a combination of both . The reverse designs range from abstract scroll - work with ornate denomination identifiers to reproductions of historical art works . Public versus institutional use ( edit ) Series 1934 gold certificates ( $100 , $1,000 , $10,000 and $100,000 ) were issued after the gold standard was repealed and gold was compulsorily confiscated by order of President Franklin Roosevelt on March 9 , 1933 ( see United States Executive Order 6102 ) . Thus the series 1934 notes were used only for intragovernmental ( i.e. , Federal Reserve Bank ) transactions and were not issued to the public . This series was discontinued in 1940 . The series 1928 gold certificate reverse was printed in black and green . See history of the United States dollar . Passive retirement ( edit ) Although they are still legal tender in the United States , high - denomination bills were last printed on December 27 , 1945 , and officially discontinued on July 14 , 1969 , by the Federal Reserve System , due to ' lack of use ' . The $5,000 and $10,000 effectively disappeared well before then . The Federal Reserve began taking high - denomination currency out of circulation ( destroying large bills received by banks ) in 1969 . As of May 30 , 2009 , only 336 $10,000 bills were known to exist ; 342 remaining $5,000 bills ; and 165,372 remaining $1,000 bills . Due to their rarity , collectors often pay considerably more than the face value of the bills to acquire them . Some are in museums in other parts of the world . For the most part , these bills were used by banks and the Federal government for large financial transactions . This was especially true for gold certificates from 1865 to 1934 . However , for the most part , the introduction of an electronic money system has made large - scale cash transactions obsolete . When combined with concerns about counterfeiting and the use of cash in unlawful activities such as the illegal drug trade and money laundering , it is unlikely that the U.S. government will re-issue large denomination currency in the near future , despite the amount of inflation that has occurred since 1969 ( a $500 bill is now worth less , in real terms , than a $100 bill was worth in 1969 ) . According to the U.S. Department of Treasury website , `` The present denominations of our currency in production are $1 , $2 , $5 , $10 , $20 , $50 and $100 . The purpose of the United States currency system is to serve the needs of the public and these denominations meet that goal . Neither the Department of the Treasury nor the Federal Reserve System has any plans to change the denominations in use today . '' In popular culture ( edit ) Before they were ' retired ' , host Monty Hall regularly tempted or teased contestants on Let 's Make a Deal with a $1,000 bill featuring Grover Cleveland .

Using a combination of proofs and issued notes , a nearly complete type set of high - denomination currency was compiled . Notably missing are several types of Compound and Interest Bearing Notes . Printed during the early to mid-1860s on very thin paper , these high - denomination notes are virtually non-existent . Their issuance ( 1861 -- 65 ) pre-dates the BEP 's responsibility for U.S. Currency ( 1870s ) , so it is fortunate that any proofs exist in the current archives .

Pseudounipolar neuron - wikipedia Pseudounipolar neuron Jump to : navigation , search Pseudounipolar neuron 1 : Pseudounipolar neuron , 2 : Bipolar neuron Details System Nervous system Identifiers Latin neuron pseudounipolare TH H2. 00.06. 1.00047 Anatomical terms of neuroanatomy ( edit on Wikidata ) A pseudounipolar neuron ( pseudo -- false , uni -- one ) is a kind of sensory neuron in the peripheral nervous system . This neuron contains an axon that has split into two branches ; one branch runs to the periphery and the other to the spinal cord . Contents ( hide ) 1 Structure 1.1 In the dorsal root ganglia 1.2 In the sensory ganglia of cranial nerves 2 Function 2.1 Signal pathway 3 See also 4 References Structure ( edit ) By definition , a pseudounipolar neuron has one axon with two branches : central and peripheral . These axonal branches should not be confused with dendrites . These sensory neurons are an exception to the typical neuron , in that they do not have separate dendrites and an axonal process , but rather one branched process that serves both functions . The axon has a peripheral branch ( from the cell body to the periphery : skin , joint and muscle ) and a central branch ( from the cell body to spinal cord ) . In the dorsal root ganglia ( edit ) The soma ( cell body ) of each pseudounipolar neuron is located within a dorsal root ganglion . The axon leaves the cell body ( and out of the dorsal root ganglion ) into the dorsal root , where it splits into two branches . The central branch goes to the posterior ( dorsal ) horn of the spinal cord , where it forms synapses with other neurons . The peripheral branch travels through the distal dorsal root into the spinal nerve all the way until skin , joint , and muscle . In the sensory ganglia of cranial nerves ( edit ) Pseudounipolar neurons are also found in the sensory ganglia of cranial nerves V , VII , IX and X , all mixed - cranial nerves . The vestibulocochlear nerve , has the bipolar neuron type in both the spiral ganglion as well as Scarpa 's ganglion . Function ( edit ) Signal pathway ( edit ) These neurons have sensory receptors on skin , joints , muscles , and other parts of the body . The area of the axon that is closest to the receptor is the trigger zone for the neuron . The signal is conducted through the axon to the dorsal root ganglion 's cell body , then through the axon and ending at the sensory nuclei in the posterior horn of the spinal cord .

Domain name - wikipedia Domain name Jump to : navigation , search This article is about domain names in the Internet . For other uses , see Domain . The hierarchy of labels in a fully qualified domain name . A domain name is an identification string that defines a realm of administrative autonomy , authority or control within the Internet . Domain names are formed by the rules and procedures of the Domain Name System ( DNS ) . Any name registered in the DNS is a domain name . Domain names are used in various networking contexts and for application - specific naming and addressing purposes . In general , a domain name represents an Internet Protocol ( IP ) resource , such as a personal computer used to access the Internet , a server computer hosting a web site , or the web site itself or any other service communicated via the Internet . In 2017 , 330.6 million domain names had been registered . Domain names are organized in subordinate levels ( subdomains ) of the DNS root domain , which is nameless . The first - level set of domain names are the top - level domains ( TLDs ) , including the generic top - level domains ( gTLDs ) , such as the prominent domains com , info , net , edu , and org , and the country code top - level domains ( ccTLDs ) . Below these top - level domains in the DNS hierarchy are the second - level and third - level domain names that are typically open for reservation by end - users who wish to connect local area networks to the Internet , create other publicly accessible Internet resources or run web sites . The registration of these domain names is usually administered by domain name registrars who sell their services to the public . A fully qualified domain name ( FQDN ) is a domain name that is completely specified with all labels in the hierarchy of the DNS , having no parts omitted . Labels in the Domain Name System are case - insensitive , and may therefore be written in any desired capitalization method , but most commonly domain names are written in lowercase in technical contexts . Contents ( hide ) 1 Purpose 2 History 3 Domain name space 3.1 Domain name syntax 3.2 Top - level domains 3.3 Second - level and lower level domains 3.4 Internationalized domain names 4 Domain name registration 4.1 History 4.2 Administration 4.3 Technical requirements and process 4.4 Business models 5 Resale of domain names 6 Domain name confusion 7 Use in web site hosting 8 Abuse and regulation 8.1 Truth in Domain Names Act 8.2 Seizures 8.3 Suspensions 9 Fictitious domain name 10 See also 11 References 12 External links Purpose Domain names serve to identify Internet resources , such as computers , networks , and services , with a text - based label that is easier to memorize than the numerical addresses used in the Internet protocols . A domain name may represent entire collections of such resources or individual instances . Individual Internet host computers use domain names as host identifiers , also called host names . The term host name is also used for the leaf labels in the domain name system , usually without further subordinate domain name space . Host names appear as a component in Uniform Resource Locators ( URLs ) for Internet resources such as web sites ( e.g. , en.wikipedia.org ) . Domain names are also used as simple identification labels to indicate ownership or control of a resource . Such examples are the realm identifiers used in the Session Initiation Protocol ( SIP ) , the Domain Keys used to verify DNS domains in e-mail systems , and in many other Uniform Resource Identifiers ( URIs ) . An important function of domain names is to provide easily recognizable and memorizable names to numerically addressed Internet resources . This abstraction allows any resource to be moved to a different physical location in the address topology of the network , globally or locally in an intranet . Such a move usually requires changing the IP address of a resource and the corresponding translation of this IP address to and from its domain name . Domain names are used to establish a unique identity . Organizations can choose a domain name that corresponds to their name , helping Internet users to reach them easily . A generic domain is a name that defines a general category , rather than a specific or personal instance , for example , the name of an industry , rather than a company name . Some examples of generic names are books.com , music.com , and travel.info . Companies have created brands based on generic names , and such generic domain names may be valuable . Domain names are often simply referred to as domains and domain name registrants are frequently referred to as domain owners , although domain name registration with a registrar does not confer any legal ownership of the domain name , only an exclusive right of use for a particular duration of time . The use of domain names in commerce may subject them to trademark law . History The practice of using a simple memorable abstraction of a host 's numerical address on a computer network dates back to the ARPANET era , before the advent of today 's commercial Internet . In the early network , each computer on the network retrieved the hosts file ( host. txt ) from a computer at SRI ( now SRI International ) , which mapped computer host names to numerical addresses . The rapid growth of the network made it impossible to maintain a centrally organized hostname registry and in 1983 the Domain Name System was introduced on the ARPANET and published by the Internet Engineering Task Force as RFC 882 and RFC 883 . Domain name space Today , the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers ( ICANN ) manages the top - level development and architecture of the Internet domain name space . It authorizes domain name registrars , through which domain names may be registered and reassigned . The hierarchical domain name system , organized into zones , each served by domain name servers . The domain name space consists of a tree of domain names . Each node in the tree holds information associated with the domain name . The tree sub-divides into zones beginning at the DNS root zone . Domain name syntax A domain name consists of one or more parts , technically called labels , that are conventionally concatenated , and delimited by dots , such as example.com . The right-most label conveys the top - level domain ; for example , the domain name www.example.com belongs to the top - level domain com . The hierarchy of domains descends from the right to the left label in the name ; each label to the left specifies a subdivision , or subdomain of the domain to the right . For example : the label example specifies a node example.com as a subdomain of the com domain , and www is a label to create www.example.com , a subdomain of example.com . Each label may contain from 1 to 63 octets . The empty label is reserved for the root node and when fully qualified is expressed as the empty label terminated by a dot . The full domain name may not exceed a total length of 253 ASCII characters in its textual representation . Thus , when using a single character per label , the limit is 127 levels : 127 characters plus 126 dots have a total length of 253 . In practice , some domain registries may have shorter limits . A hostname is a domain name that has at least one associated IP address . For example , the domain names www.example.com and example.com are also hostnames , whereas the com domain is not . However , other top - level domains , particularly country code top - level domains , may indeed have an IP address , and if so , they are also hostnames . Hostnames impose restrictions on the characters allowed in the corresponding domain name . A valid hostname is also a valid domain name , but a valid domain name may not necessarily be valid as a hostname . Top - level domains The top - level domains ( TLDs ) such as com , net and org are the highest level of domain names of the Internet . Top - level domains form the DNS root zone of the hierarchical Domain Name System . Every domain name ends with a top - level domain label . When the Domain Name System was devised in the 1980s , the domain name space was divided into two main groups of domains . The country code top - level domains ( ccTLD ) were primarily based on the two - character territory codes of ISO - 3166 country abbreviations . In addition , a group of seven generic top - level domains ( gTLD ) was implemented which represented a set of categories of names and multi-organizations . These were the domains gov , edu , com , mil , org , net , and int . During the growth of the Internet , it became desirable to create additional generic top - level domains . As of October 2009 , 21 generic top - level domains and 250 two - letter country - code top - level domains existed . In addition , the ARPA domain serves technical purposes in the infrastructure of the Domain Name System . During the 32nd International Public ICANN Meeting in Paris in 2008 , ICANN started a new process of TLD naming policy to take a `` significant step forward on the introduction of new generic top - level domains . '' This program envisions the availability of many new or already proposed domains , as well as a new application and implementation process . Observers believed that the new rules could result in hundreds of new top - level domains to be registered . In 2012 , the program commenced , and received 1930 applications . By 2016 , the milestone of 1000 live gTLD was reached . The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority ( IANA ) maintains an annotated list of top - level domains in the DNS root zone database . For special purposes , such as network testing , documentation , and other applications , IANA also reserves a set of special - use domain names . This list contains domain names such as example , local , localhost , and test . Other top - level domain names containing trade marks are registered for corporate use . Cases include brands such as BMW , Google , and Canon . Second - level and lower level domains Below the top - level domains in the domain name hierarchy are the second - level domain ( SLD ) names . These are the names directly to the left of . com , . net , and the other top - level domains . As an example , in the domain example.co.uk , co is the second - level domain . Next are third - level domains , which are written immediately to the left of a second - level domain . There can be fourth - and fifth - level domains , and so on , with virtually no limitation . An example of an operational domain name with four levels of domain labels is sos.state.oh.us . Each label is separated by a full stop ( dot ) . ' sos ' is said to be a sub-domain of ' state.oh.us ' , and ' state ' a sub-domain of ' oh.us ' , etc . In general , subdomains are domains subordinate to their parent domain . An example of very deep levels of subdomain ordering are the IPv6 reverse resolution DNS zones , e.g. , 1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.ip6.arpa , which is the reverse DNS resolution domain name for the IP address of a loopback interface , or the localhost name . Second - level ( or lower - level , depending on the established parent hierarchy ) domain names are often created based on the name of a company ( e.g. , bbc.co.uk ) , product or service ( e.g. hotmail.com ) . Below these levels , the next domain name component has been used to designate a particular host server . Therefore , ftp.example.com might be an FTP server , www.example.com would be a World Wide Web server , and mail.example.com could be an email server , each intended to perform only the implied function . Modern technology allows multiple physical servers with either different ( cf . load balancing ) or even identical addresses ( cf . anycast ) to serve a single hostname or domain name , or multiple domain names to be served by a single computer . The latter is very popular in Web hosting service centers , where service providers host the websites of many organizations on just a few servers . The hierarchical DNS labels or components of domain names are separated in a fully qualified name by the full stop ( dot , . ) . Internationalized domain names Main article : Internationalized domain name The character set allowed in the Domain Name System is based on ASCII and does not allow the representation of names and words of many languages in their native scripts or alphabets . ICANN approved the Internationalized domain name ( IDNA ) system , which maps Unicode strings used in application user interfaces into the valid DNS character set by an encoding called Punycode . For example , københavn.eu is mapped to xn -- kbenhavn-54a.eu . Many registries have adopted IDNA . Domain name registration History The first commercial Internet domain name , in the TLD com , was registered on 15 March 1985 in the name symbolics.com by Symbolics Inc. , a computer systems firm in Cambridge , Massachusetts . By 1992 , fewer than 15,000 com domains had been registered . In the first quarter of 2015 , 294 million domain names had been registered . A large fraction of them are in the com TLD , which as of December 21 , 2014 , had 115.6 million domain names , including 11.9 million online business and e-commerce sites , 4.3 million entertainment sites , 3.1 million finance related sites , and 1.8 million sports sites . As of July 2012 the com TLD had more registrations than all of the ccTLDs combined . Administration The right to use a domain name is delegated by domain name registrars , which are accredited by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers ( ICANN ) , the organization charged with overseeing the name and number systems of the Internet . In addition to ICANN , each top - level domain ( TLD ) is maintained and serviced technically by an administrative organization operating a registry . A registry is responsible for maintaining the database of names registered within the TLD it administers . The registry receives registration information from each domain name registrar authorized to assign names in the corresponding TLD and publishes the information using a special service , the WHOIS protocol . Registries and registrars usually charge an annual fee for the service of delegating a domain name to a user and providing a default set of name servers . Often , this transaction is termed a sale or lease of the domain name , and the registrant may sometimes be called an `` owner '' , but no such legal relationship is actually associated with the transaction , only the exclusive right to use the domain name . More correctly , authorized users are known as `` registrants '' or as `` domain holders '' . ICANN publishes the complete list of TLD registries and domain name registrars . Registrant information associated with domain names is maintained in an online database accessible with the WHOIS protocol . For most of the 250 country code top - level domains ( ccTLDs ) , the domain registries maintain the WHOIS ( Registrant , name servers , expiration dates , etc . ) information . Some domain name registries , often called network information centers ( NIC ) , also function as registrars to end - users . The major generic top - level domain registries , such as for the com , net , org , info domains and others , use a registry - registrar model consisting of hundreds of domain name registrars ( see lists at ICANN or VeriSign ) . In this method of management , the registry only manages the domain name database and the relationship with the registrars . The registrants ( users of a domain name ) are customers of the registrar , in some cases through additional layers of resellers . Technical requirements and process In the process of registering a domain name and maintaining authority over the new name space created , registrars use several key pieces of information connected with a domain : Administrative contact . A registrant usually designates an administrative contact to manage the domain name . The administrative contact usually has the highest level of control over a domain . Management functions delegated to the administrative contacts may include management of all business information , such as name of record , postal address , and contact information of the official registrant of the domain and the obligation to conform to the requirements of the domain registry in order to retain the right to use a domain name . Furthermore , the administrative contact installs additional contact information for technical and billing functions . Technical contact . The technical contact manages the name servers of a domain name . The functions of a technical contact include assuring conformance of the configurations of the domain name with the requirements of the domain registry , maintaining the domain zone records , and providing continuous functionality of the name servers ( that leads to the accessibility of the domain name ) . Billing contact . The party responsible for receiving billing invoices from the domain name registrar and paying applicable fees . Name servers . Most registrars provide two or more name servers as part of the registration service . However , a registrant may specify its own authoritative name servers to host a domain 's resource records . The registrar 's policies govern the number of servers and the type of server information required . Some providers require a hostname and the corresponding IP address or just the hostname , which must be resolvable either in the new domain , or exist elsewhere . Based on traditional requirements ( RFC 1034 ) , typically a minimum of two servers is required . Domain names may be formed from the set of alphanumeric ASCII characters ( a-z , A-Z , 0 - 9 ) , but characters are case - insensitive . In addition the hyphen ( U + 002D ) is permitted if it is surrounded by characters , digits or hyphens , although it is not to start or end a label . Labels are always separated by the full stop ( period ) character in the textual name representation . Business models Domain names are often seen in analogy to real estate in that domain names are foundations on which a website can be built , and the highest quality domain names , like sought - after real estate , tend to carry significant value , usually due to their online brand - building potential , use in advertising , search engine optimization , and many other criteria . A few companies have offered low - cost , below - cost or even free domain registration with a variety of models adopted to recoup the costs to the provider . These usually require that domains be hosted on their website within a framework or portal that includes advertising wrapped around the domain holder 's content , revenue from which allows the provider to recoup the costs . Domain registrations were free of charge when the DNS was new . A domain holder may provide infinite number of subdomains in their domain . For example , the owner of example.org could provide subdomains such as foo.example.org and foo.bar.example.org to interested parties . Many desirable domain names are already assigned and users must search for other acceptable names , using Web - based search features , or WHOIS and dig operating system tools . Many registrars have implemented domain name suggestion tools which search domain name databases and suggest available alternative domain names related to keywords provided by the user . Resale of domain names Main article : List of most expensive domain names The business of resale of registered domain names is known as the domain aftermarket . Various factors influence the perceived value or market value of a domain name . Most of the high - prize domain sales are carried out privately . Domain name confusion Intercapping is often used to emphasize the meaning of a domain name . However , DNS names are not case - sensitive , and some names may be misinterpreted in certain uses of capitalization . For example : Who Represents , a database of artists and agents , chose whorepresents.com , which can be misread as whore presents . Similarly , a therapists ' network is named therapistfinder.com . In such situations , the proper meaning may be clarified by use of hyphens in the domain name . For instance , Experts Exchange , a programmers ' discussion site , for a long time used expertsexchange.com , but ultimately changed the name to experts-exchange.com . Use in web site hosting The domain name is a component of a uniform resource locator ( URL ) used to access web sites , for example : URL : http://www.example.net/index.html Top - level domain : net Second - level domain : example Host name : www A domain name may point to multiple IP addresses to provide server redundancy for the services offered , a feature that is used to manage the traffic of large , popular web sites . Web hosting services , on the other hand , run servers that are typically assigned only one or a few addresses while serving websites for many domains , a technique referred to as virtual web hosting . Such IP address overloading requires that each request identifies the domain name being referenced , for instance by using the HTTP request header field Host : , or Server Name Indication . Abuse and regulation Critics often claim abuse of administrative power over domain names . Particularly noteworthy was the VeriSign Site Finder system which redirected all unregistered . com and . net domains to a VeriSign webpage . For example , at a public meeting with VeriSign to air technical concerns about SiteFinder , numerous people , active in the IETF and other technical bodies , explained how they were surprised by VeriSign 's changing the fundamental behavior of a major component of Internet infrastructure , not having obtained the customary consensus . SiteFinder , at first , assumed every Internet query was for a website , and it monetized queries for incorrect domain names , taking the user to VeriSign 's search site . Unfortunately , other applications , such as many implementations of email , treat a lack of response to a domain name query as an indication that the domain does not exist , and that the message can be treated as undeliverable . The original VeriSign implementation broke this assumption for mail , because it would always resolve an erroneous domain name to that of SiteFinder . While VeriSign later changed SiteFinder 's behaviour with regard to email , there was still widespread protest about VeriSign 's action being more in its financial interest than in the interest of the Internet infrastructure component for which VeriSign was the steward . Despite widespread criticism , VeriSign only reluctantly removed it after the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers ( ICANN ) threatened to revoke its contract to administer the root name servers . ICANN published the extensive set of letters exchanged , committee reports , and ICANN decisions . There is also significant disquiet regarding the United States ' political influence over ICANN . This was a significant issue in the attempt to create a . xxx top - level domain and sparked greater interest in alternative DNS roots that would be beyond the control of any single country . Additionally , there are numerous accusations of domain name front running , whereby registrars , when given whois queries , automatically register the domain name for themselves . Network Solutions has been accused of this . Truth in domain names Act In the United States , the Truth in Domain Names Act of 2003 , in combination with the PROTECT Act of 2003 , forbids the use of a misleading domain name with the intention of attracting Internet users into visiting Internet pornography sites . The Truth in Domain Names Act follows the more general Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act passed in 1999 aimed at preventing typosquatting and deceptive use of names and trademarks in domain names . Seizures Seizure notices absolutepoker.com channelsurfing.net libertyreserve.com In the early 21st century , the US Department of Justice ( DOJ ) pursued the seizure of domain names , based on the legal theory that domain names constitute property used to engage in criminal activity , and thus are subject to forfeiture . For example , in the seizure of the domain name of a gambling website , the DOJ referenced 18 U.S.C. § 981 and 18 U.S.C. § 1955 ( d ). ( 1 ) In 2013 the US government seized Liberty Reserve , citing 18 U.S.C. § 982 ( a ) ( 1 ) . The U.S. Congress passed the Combating Online Infringement and Counterfeits Act in 2010 . Consumer Electronics Association vice president Michael Petricone was worried that seizure was a blunt instrument that could harm legitimate businesses . After a joint operation in February 15 , 2011 , the DOJ and the Department of Homeland Security claimed to have seized ten domains of websites involved in advertising and distributing child pornography , but also mistakenly seized the domain name of a large DNS provider , temporarily replacing 84,000 websites with seizure notices . In the United Kingdom , the Police Intellectual Property Crime Unit has been attempting to seize domain names from registrars without court orders . Suspensions PIPCU and other UK law enforcement organisations make domain suspension requests to Nominet which they process on the basis of breach of terms and conditions . Around 16,000 domains are suspended annually , and about 80 % of the requests originate from PIPCU . Fictitious domain name A fictitious domain name is a domain name used in a work of fiction or popular culture to refer to a domain that does not actually exist , often with invalid or unofficial top - level domains such as ``. web '' , a usage exactly analogous to the dummy 555 telephone number prefix used in film and other media . The canonical fictitious domain name is `` example.com '' , specifically set aside by IANA in RFC 2606 for such use , along with the . example TLD . Domain names used in works of fiction have often been registered in the DNS , either by their creators or by cybersquatters attempting to profit from it . This phenomenon prompted NBC to purchase the domain name Hornymanatee.com after talk - show host Conan O'Brien spoke the name while ad - libbing on his show . O'Brien subsequently created a website based on the concept and used it as a running gag on the show .

John Carpenter ( game show contestant ) - wikipedia John Carpenter ( game show contestant ) Jump to : navigation , search John Carpenter 1968 ( age 48 -- 49 ) Education Rutgers University Occupation IRS agent Known for First top prize winner on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire Home town Northampton , Massachusetts John Carpenter ( born c. 1968 ) is an American game show contestant and IRS agent . He is best known for becoming the first top prize winner on the United States version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire . He held the record for the largest single win in United States game show history , until it was broken by Rahim Oberholtzer who won $1.12 million on another U.S. quiz show , Twenty One . Carpenter was also the first top prize winner among all international versions of the Who Wants to Be a Millionaire ? series . On the November 19 , 1999 , episode of Millionaire , Carpenter proceeded to advance to the million - dollar question without using any lifelines . He then used his Phone - A-Friend to call his father not for help , but rather to tell him he was going to win the game . Carpenter answered the question correctly and became the show 's first millionaire . His win gave him national recognition and led to multiple talk show appearances , as well as reappearances on Millionaire itself . Contents ( hide ) 1 Career and family 2 Who Wants to Be a Millionaire 3 Later work 3.1 Other game show appearances 4 See also 5 References 6 External links Career and family ( edit ) Carpenter is from Northampton , Massachusetts . His father , Tom , worked as a computer program analyst for the Department of Veterans Affairs , while his mother , Gail , served as an administrative assistant for the Massachusetts Audubon Society . In 1986 , he enrolled at Rutgers University and graduated in 1990 with a degree in economics . In January 1991 , he joined the Internal Revenue Service after completing government exams and tests . In November 1996 , Carpenter met his future wife , Deborah , who was studying for a master 's degree at Southern Connecticut State University and worked as a manager of a Fleet Bank branch in New Haven . They married in August 1998 . At the time of his appearance on Millionaire , he was 31 years old . When he revealed his profession as an IRS officer on Millionaire , Carpenter was playfully booed by the audience . Who Wants to Be a Millionaire ( edit ) $1 million ( 15 of 15 ) - no time limit Which of these U.S. Presidents appeared on the television series `` Laugh - In '' ? A : Lyndon Johnson B : Richard Nixon C : Jimmy Carter D: Gerald Ford Carpenter was originally uninterested in Millionaire but eventually tuned in one night after dinner while having friends over at his house . When he found the show 's higher - tier questions to not be , in his words , `` any more difficult '' than the lower - tier ones , he decided to call in to the show 's hotline for a chance to become a contestant . Carpenter answered all of the hotline questions correctly and was on the show within two days . Host Regis Philbin described Carpenter as having `` cruised right through those first fourteen questions , '' he had proceeded to reach the final question without using any of his lifelines . The $1 million question was , `` Which of these U.S. Presidents appeared on the television series ' Laugh - In ' ? '' , with the choices being A ) Lyndon Johnson , B) Richard Nixon , C ) Jimmy Carter , and D ) Gerald Ford . Carpenter used his Phone - A-Friend lifeline to call his father not for help , but rather to inform him that he knew the answer . Carpenter later explained , `` I thought I 'd look so cocky if I did n't use any lifelines , so I faked it . '' With his win , Carpenter became the first contestant in the worldwide Millionaire franchise to win the show 's top prize . He said that the only question that had flustered him was one which asked for the location of the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral . Carpenter eventually remembered that the film Tombstone included the gunfight , and he replied correctly with the answer ' Tombstone , Arizona ' . While taking a vacation after his win , Carpenter considered quitting his job with the IRS , but eventually decided against it . He explained to Kiplinger 's Personal Finance that `` after the taxes , it 's not change - your - life kind of money if you want to eat every day . '' Carpenter also described the fame as having a bigger impact on his life than the money , later stating : `` The money does n't change your life . What happens afterwards might . '' Later work ( edit ) Shortly after winning on Millionaire , Carpenter played himself in a Saturday Night Live skit . Donald Trump , played by Darrell Hammond , announced that Carpenter would be his running - mate in the presidential election . Afterward , Carpenter pretended to call his father , then shouted , `` Live from New York , it 's Saturday Night ! '' Carpenter also appeared on Good Morning America , Oprah Winfrey Show , Live with Regis and Kathie Lee , and Late Show with David Letterman . Carpenter appeared as himself in the second half of the fourth season of Oz . He plays a contestant in a fictional TV game show called Up Your Ante that the prisoners in Em City are watching . The show within the show is hosted by Gordon Elliott , with Eartha Kitt and Didi Conn appearing as celebrity participants . With Rod L. Evans , Carpenter co-authored a trivia book titled Matching Wits With the Million - Dollar Mind : The World 's Hardest Trivia Quizzes From America 's First Quiz Show Millionaire . The book was published by Berkley Books in 2002 . Other game show appearances ( edit ) In 2000 , Carpenter appeared in the Who Wants to Be a Millionaire Champions Edition , in which previous contestants who won $250,000 -- $1,000,000 played again , with half of their additional winnings from the Champions Edition going to a charity of their choice . Carpenter won $250,000 , bringing his total Millionaire winnings to $1,250,000 . In 2004 , Carpenter participated in Super Millionaire , as one of the `` Three Wise Men '' on the episode during which Robert `` Bob - O '' Essig won $1,000,000 . He later participated as part of the Mob on NBC 's 1 vs. 100 on October 27 , 2006 , and as a contestant on the Game Show Network game show Grand Slam .

Men 's Basketball ( edit ) Main article : Villanova Wildcats men 's basketball The Villanova Wildcats compete in the Big East Conference and are coached by Jay Wright . The team has traditionally divides its home schedule between its on - campus arena , the William B. Finneran Pavilion , and the Wells Fargo Center in South Philadelphia , for larger draws . During the 2017 - 18 season , the team played its entire home schedule that season at the Wells Fargo Center following the reconstruction of the Pavilion scheduled to be completed in time for the 2018 - 19 school year . Wright has taken the Wildcats to 12 postseason appearances including 7 consecutive trips ( 2005 -- 2011 ) and 5 consecutive trips ( 2013 - 2017 ) to the NCAA Tournament . The 2011 - 12 team struggled and missed postseason but Coach Wright brought a surprising young team back to the 2013 NCAA Tournament .

The eighth - seeded Wildcats ( unranked in the final AP poll ) beat Dayton ( at Dayton ) , top - seeded Michigan , Maryland and second - seeded North Carolina to win the Southeast Regional en route to the Final Four in Lexington , Kentucky . After defeating 2 - seed Memphis State ( now known as Memphis ) in the national semifinals , Villanova met defending champion and ten - point - favorite Georgetown , led by Patrick Ewing , in the title game on April 1 , 1985 . The Wildcat squad remains the lowest overall seed in tournament history to win the championship , and their overall team shooting percentage of 78.6 % remains an NCAA tournament record for a single game .

The Women 's basketball program started in 1969 and played under CIAW and AIAW through 1981 - 82 season before moving to NCAA Division I. In the 81 - 82 season , the Wildcats posted an outstanding 29 - 4 record and reached the Final Four of the 1982 AIAW Women 's Basketball Tournament before losing to eventual National Champion , Rutgers . Through the 2009 - 10 season , the Villanova Women have a 669 - 413 alltime record since the program started in 1969 . Previous head coaches include Liz Cawley ( 1969 -- 70 ) , Jane Sefranek - Stoltz ( 1970 -- 75 ) and Joan King ( 1975 -- 78 ) . The 1982 - 83 season was the initial season for Villanova Women 's basketball to play NCAA Division I and they joined the Big East Conference that same season . Villanova was the Big East regular season and tournament champions in both 1985 - 86 and 1986 - 87 behind All - American Shelly Pennefather . During the 2008 - 09 season , Coach Perretta led the Wildcats to the NCAA Tournament for the ninth time in his Villanova career . This marked the ninth postseason appearance in the previous 10 years for the Wildcats . After playing in the 2000 WNIT , Villanova went to four consecutive NCAA Tournaments from 2001 to 2004 before playing in the WNIT in 2005 , 2006 and 2008 . The 2002 - 03 season was a special one for the Wildcats . In addition to an impressive 28 - 6 overall record and a 12 - 4 Big East Conference mark , the Wildcats won their third Big East Conference Tournament championship and first since 1987 with an improbable 52 - 48 upset over previously unbeaten Connecticut .

Coach Perretta reached a coaching milestone on November 12 , 2011 with a win over Iona , representing the 600th win of his career . He is the 35th coach in the history of women 's basketball at any level to reach the 600 win plateau , including the 22nd to accomplish the feat at the Division I level . Perretta is only the seventh NCAA Division I coaches to have 600 victories all at one school . On February 8 , 2012 , Perretta reached another milestone as he became the seventh coach across all NCAA divisions to coach 1,000 games at the same institution . Perretta was named the 2009 Big East Conference Co-Coach of the Year . That was the third time in his career that he has garnered Big East Coach of the Year distinction . He has led the Wildcats to fourteen seasons of 20 wins or more . Since joining the Big East in 1982 , Perretta has compiled a 200 - 175 conference record through 2010 .

Villanova played in bowl games following the 1936 , 1947 , 1948 , 1961 , and 1962 college football seasons . After 87 seasons , the Board of Trustees voted to drop Football in April 1981 due to financial losses and poor attendance . In April , 1984 , the Board of Trustees agreed to reinstate Football at a lower level as a non-scholarship program ( Division I schools could field a non-scholarship Division III program at the time ) and named Andy Talley as the head coach , with first Division III practice that fall and first . The program began competing in Division I - AA ( now Division I FCS ) level during the 1988 season .

The Wildcats also play the Penn Quakers in most recent seasons with many of the games held at historic Franklin Field . The series was first played in 1905 and Villanova has an 11 - 5 lead . There has been some discussion regarding a potential promotion to the Football Bowl Subdivision and into the Big East in which they already participate for all other Sports . In September 2010 , the Big East informally spoke with Villanova about joining for football . The school conducted several feasibility studies but a scheduled April 12 , 2011 Board of Trustees vote was never taken after several Big East Football ( now the American Athletic Conference ) schools objected to their use of Talen Energy Stadium , then known as PPL Park , as an unacceptable venue for future games .

Notable non varsity Sports ( edit ) Rugby ( edit ) Villanova Ruby Football Club University Villanova University Association USA Rugby Conference Keystone Conference The Villanova Rugby Football Club regained its official sanctioning by the University in 2010 , after losing this status and being classified as a recreational sport during the 1990s . The college rugby team has been able to develop a roster of over 50 players , due in part to the growing popularity of rugby at the high school level , and the Wildcats are supported by a network of rugby alumni that contribute towards the cost of the rugby program . The Wildcats are led by head coach Jack Foley , a former Villanova RFC athlete , USA 7 's player , and a head coach at various programs since 1998 . Recently , the Wildcats played at the 2013 Collegiate Rugby Championship , the highest profile competition in college rugby , which was broadcast live on NBC from PPL Park in Philadelphia .

Following its regular spring sevens schedule , the team also competes in the annual Philadelphia Cup at PPL Park which runs concurrent with the CRC .

They are available in power ratings ranging from mW to MW . The insulated laminations minimizes eddy current losses in the iron core . Small appliance and electronic transformers may use a split bobbin , giving a high level of insulation between the windings . The rectangular cores are made up of stampings , often in E-I shape pairs , but other shapes are sometimes used . Shields between primary and secondary may be fitted to reduce EMI ( electromagnetic interference ) , or a screen winding is occasionally used . Small appliance and electronics transformers may have a thermal cut - out built into the winding , to shut - off power at high temperatures to prevent further overheating . Toroidal ( edit ) Toroidal transformer Doughnut shaped toroidal transformers save space compared to E-I cores , and may reduce external magnetic field . These use a ring shaped core , copper windings wrapped round this ring ( and thus threaded through the ring during winding ) , and tape for insulation . Toroidal transformers have a lower external magnetic field compared to rectangular transformers , and can be smaller for a given power rating . However , they cost more to make , as winding requires more complex and slower equipment . They can be mounted by a bolt through the center , using washers and rubber pads or by potting in resin . Autotransformer ( edit ) Main article : Autotransformer An autotransformer has one winding that is tapped at some point along the winding . Voltage is applied across a portion of the winding , and a higher ( or lower ) voltage is produced across another portion of the same winding . The equivalent power rating of the autotransfomer is lower than the actual load power rating . It is calculated by : load VA × ( Vin -- Vout ) / Vin . For example , an auto transformer that adapts a 1000 VA load rated at 120 Volts to a 240 Volt supply has an equivalent rating of at least : 1,000 VA × ( 240V -- 120V ) / 240V = 500VA . However , the actual rating ( shown on the tally plate ) must be at least 1000 VA . For voltage ratios that do n't exceed about 3 : 1 , an autotransformer is cheaper , lighter , smaller , and more efficient than an isolating ( two - winding ) transformer of the same rating . Large three - phase autotransformers are used in electric power distribution systems , for example , to interconnect 33 kV and 66 kV sub-transmission networks . Variable autotransformer ( edit ) Variable autotransformer Main article : Autotransformer § Variable autotransformers By exposing part of the winding coils of an autotransformer , and making the secondary connection through a sliding carbon brush , an autotransformer with a near - continuously variable turns ratio can be obtained , allowing for wide voltage adjustment in very small increments . Induction regulator ( edit ) Main article : Induction regulator The induction regulator is similar in design to a wound - rotor induction motor but it is essentially a transformer whose output voltage is varied by rotating its secondary relative to the primary -- i.e. , rotating the angular position of the rotor . It can be seen as a power transformer exploiting rotating magnetic fields . The major advantage of the induction regulator is that unlike variacs , they are practical for transformers over 5 kVA . Hence , such regulators find widespread use in high - voltage laboratories . Polyphase transformer ( edit ) A high - voltage transformer being dismantled Cutaway view of a polyphase transformer For polyphase systems , multiple single - phase transformers can be used , or all phases can be connected to a single polyphase transformer . For a three phase transformer , the three primary windings are connected together and the three secondary windings are connected together . Examples of connections are wye - delta , delta - wye , delta - delta and wye - wye . A vector group indicates the configuration of the windings and the phase angle difference between them . If a winding is connected to earth ( grounded ) , the earth connection point is usually the center point of a wye winding . If the secondary is a delta winding , the ground may be connected to a center tap on one winding ( high leg delta ) or one phase may be grounded ( corner grounded delta ) . A special purpose polyphase transformer is the zigzag transformer . There are many possible configurations that may involve more or fewer than six windings and various tap connections . Three - phase transformers 380kV / 110kV and 110kV / 20kV Grounding transformer ( edit ) Main article : Earthing transformer Grounding or earthing transformers let three wire ( delta ) polyphase system supplies accommodate phase to neutral loads by providing a return path for current to a neutral . Grounding transformers most commonly incorporate a single winding transformer with a zigzag winding configuration but may also be created with a wye - delta isolated winding transformer connection . Phase - shifting transformer ( edit ) Main article : Quadrature booster This is a specialized type of transformer which can be configured to adjust the phase relationship between input and output . This allows power flow in an electric grid to be controlled , e.g. to steer power flows away from a shorter ( but overloaded ) link to a longer path with excess capacity . Variable - frequency transformer ( edit ) Main article : Variable - frequency transformer A variable - frequency transformer is a specialized three - phase power transformer which allows the phase relationship between the input and output windings to be continuously adjusted by rotating one half . They are used to interconnect electrical grids with the same nominal frequency but without synchronous phase coordination . Leakage or stray field transformers ( edit ) Leakage transformer A leakage transformer , also called a stray - field transformer , has a significantly higher leakage inductance than other transformers , sometimes increased by a magnetic bypass or shunt in its core between primary and secondary , which is sometimes adjustable with a set screw . This provides a transformer with an inherent current limitation due to the loose coupling between its primary and the secondary windings . In this case , it is short - circuit inductance which is actually acting as a current limiting parameter . The output and input currents are low enough to prevent thermal overload under all load conditions -- even if the secondary is shorted . Uses ( edit ) Leakage transformers are used for arc welding and high voltage discharge lamps ( neon lights and cold cathode fluorescent lamps , which are series connected up to 7.5 kV AC ) . It acts then both as a voltage transformer and as a magnetic ballast . Other applications are short - circuit - proof extra-low voltage transformers for toys or doorbell installations . Resonant transformer ( edit ) Further information : Resonant inductive coupling Further information : Tesla coil § Resonant transformer A resonant transformer is a transformer in which one or both windings has a capacitor across it and functions as a tuned circuit . Used at radio frequencies , resonant transformers can function as high Q factor bandpass filters . The transformer windings have either air or ferrite cores and the bandwidth can be adjusted by varying the coupling ( mutual inductance ) . One common form is the IF ( intermediate frequency ) transformer , used in superheterodyne radio receivers . They are also used in radio transmitters . Resonant transformers are also used in electronic ballasts for gas discharge lamps , and high voltage power supplies . They are also used in some types of switching power supplies . Here the short - circuit inductance value is an important parameter that determines the resonance frequency of the resonant transformer . Often only secondary winding has a resonant capacitor ( or stray capacitance ) and acts as a serial resonant tank circuit . When the short - circuit inductance of the secondary side of the transformer is L and the resonant capacitor ( or stray capacitance ) of the secondary side is C , The resonance frequency ω of 1 ' is as follows ω s = 1 L s c C r = 1 ( 1 − k 2 ) L s C r ( \ displaystyle \ omega _ ( s ) = ( \ frac ( 1 ) ( \ sqrt ( L_ ( sc ) C_ ( r ) ) ) ) = ( \ frac ( 1 ) ( \ sqrt ( ( 1 - k ^ ( 2 ) ) L_ ( s ) C_ ( r ) ) ) ) ) The transformer is driven by a pulse or square wave for efficiency , generated by an electronic oscillator circuit . Each pulse serves to drive resonant sinusoidal oscillations in the tuned winding , and due to resonance a high voltage can be developed across the secondary . Applications : Intermediate frequency ( IF ) transformer in superheterodyne radio receiver Tank transformers in radio transmitters Tesla coil CCFL inverter Oudin coil ( or Oudin resonator ; named after its inventor Paul Oudin ) D'Arsonval apparatus Ignition coil or induction coil used in the ignition system of a petrol engine Electrical breakdown and insulation testing of high voltage equipment and cables . In the latter case , the transformer 's secondary is resonated with the cable 's capacitance . Constant voltage transformer ( edit ) See also : Voltage regulator § Constant - voltage transformer By arranging particular magnetic properties of a transformer core , and installing a ferro - resonant tank circuit ( a capacitor and an additional winding ) , a transformer can be arranged to automatically keep the secondary winding voltage relatively constant for varying primary supply without additional circuitry or manual adjustment . Ferro - resonant transformers run hotter than standard power transformers , because regulating action depends on core saturation , which reduces efficiency . The output waveform is heavily distorted unless careful measures are taken to prevent this . Saturating transformers provide a simple rugged method to stabilize an AC power supply . Ferrite core ( edit ) Ferrite core power transformers are widely used in switched - mode power supplies ( SMPSs ) . The powder core enables high - frequency operation , and hence much smaller size - to - power ratio than laminated - iron transformers . Ferrite transformers are not used as power transformers at mains frequency since laminated iron cores cost less than an equivalent ferrite core . Planar transformer ( edit ) A planar transformer Exploded view : the spiral primary `` winding '' on one side of the PCB ( the spiral secondary `` winding '' is on the other side of the PCB ) Manufacturers etch spiral patterns on a printed circuit board to form the `` windings '' of a planar transformer , replacing the turns of wire used to make other types . Some planar transformers are commercially sold as discrete components . Other planar transformers are one of many components on a printed circuit board . A planar transformer can be thinner than other transformers , which is useful for low - profile applications or when several printed circuit boards are stacked . Almost all planar transformers use a ferrite planar core . Oil cooled transformer ( edit ) Large transformers used in power distribution or electrical substations have their core and coils immersed in oil , which cools and insulates . Oil circulates through ducts in the coil and around the coil and core assembly , moved by convection . The oil is cooled by the outside of the tank in small ratings , and by an air - cooled radiator in larger ratings . Where a higher rating is required , or where the transformer is in a building or underground , oil pumps circulate the oil , and an oil - to - water heat exchanger may also be used . Some transformers may contain PCBs where or when its use was permitted . For example , until 1979 in South Africa . substitute fire - resistant liquids such as silicone oils are now used instead . Cast resin transformer ( edit ) Cast - resin power transformers encase the windings in epoxy resin . These transformers simplify installation since they are dry , without cooling oil , and so require no fire - proof vault for indoor installations . The epoxy protects the windings from dust and corrosive atmospheres . However , because the molds for casting the coils are only available in fixed sizes , the design of the transformers is less flexible , which may make them more costly if customized features ( voltage , turns ratio , taps ) are required . Isolating transformer ( edit ) An isolation transformer links two circuits magnetically , but provides no metallic conductive path between the circuits . An example application would be in the power supply for medical equipment , when it is necessary to prevent any leakage from the AC power system into devices connected to a patient . Special purpose isolation transformers may include shielding to prevent coupling of electromagnetic noise between circuits , or may have reinforced insulation to withstand thousands of volts of potential difference between primary and secondary circuits . Instrument transformer ( edit ) Main article : Instrument transformer Instrument transformers Instrument transformers are typically used to operate instruments from high voltage lines or high current circuits , safely isolating measurement and control circuitry from the high voltages or currents . The primary winding of the transformer is connected to the high voltage or high current circuit , and the meter or relay is connected to the secondary circuit . Instrument transformers may also be used as an isolation transformer so that secondary quantities may be used without affecting the primary circuitry . Terminal identifications ( either alphanumeric such as H , X , Y , etc. or a colored spot or dot impressed in the case ) indicate one end of each winding , indicating the same instantaneous polarity and phase between windings . This applies to both types of instrument transformers . Correct identification of terminals and wiring is essential for proper operation of metering and protective relay instrumentation . Current transformer ( edit ) Main article : Current transformer Current transformers used in metering equipment for three - phase 400 ampere electricity supply A current transformer ( CT ) is a series connected measurement device designed to provide a current in its secondary coil proportional to the current flowing in its primary . Current transformers are commonly used in metering and protective relays in the electrical power industry . Current transformers are often constructed by passing a single primary turn ( either an insulated cable or an uninsulated bus bar ) through a well - insulated toroidal core wrapped with many turns of wire . The CT is typically described by its current ratio from primary to secondary . For example , a 1000 : 1 CT provides an output current of 1 amperes when 1000 amperes flow through the primary winding . Standard secondary current ratings are 5 amperes or 1 ampere , compatible with standard measuring instruments . The secondary winding can be single ratio or have several tap points to provide a range of ratios . Care must be taken to make sure the secondary winding is not disconnected from its low - impedance load while current flows in the primary , as this may produce a dangerously high voltage across the open secondary and may permanently affect the accuracy of the transformer . Specially constructed wideband CTs are also used , usually with an oscilloscope , to measure high frequency waveforms or pulsed currents within pulsed power systems . One type provides a voltage output that is proportional to the measured current . Another , called a Rogowski coil , requires an external integrator in order to provide a proportional output . A current clamp uses a current transformer with a split core that can be easily wrapped around a conductor in a circuit . This is a common method used in portable current measuring instruments but permanent installations use more economical types of current transformer . Voltage transformer or potential transformer ( edit ) Voltage transformers ( VT ) , also called potential transformers ( PT ) , are a parallel connected type of instrument transformer , used for metering and protection in high - voltage circuits or phasor phase shift isolation . They are designed to present negligible load to the supply being measured and to have an accurate voltage ratio to enable accurate metering . A potential transformer may have several secondary windings on the same core as a primary winding , for use in different metering or protection circuits . The primary may be connected phase to ground or phase to phase . The secondary is usually grounded on one terminal . There are three primary types of voltage transformers ( VT ) : electromagnetic , capacitor , and optical . The electromagnetic voltage transformer is a wire - wound transformer . The capacitor voltage transformer uses a capacitance potential divider and is used at higher voltages due to a lower cost than an electromagnetic VT . An optical voltage transformer exploits the electrical properties of optical materials . Measurement of high voltages is possible by the potential transformers . Combined instrument transformer ( edit ) Combined instrument transformer A combined instrument transformer encloses a current transformer and a voltage transformer in the same transformer . There are two main combined current and voltage transformer designs : oil - paper insulated and SF insulated . One advantage of applying this solution is reduced substation footprint , due to reduced number of transformers in a bay , supporting structures and connections as well as lower costs for civil works , transportation and installation . Pulse transformer ( edit ) Bothhand TS6121A pulse transformer A pulse transformer is a transformer that is optimised for transmitting rectangular electrical pulses ( that is , pulses with fast rise and fall times and a relatively constant amplitude ) . Small versions called signal types are used in digital logic and telecommunications circuits , often for matching logic drivers to transmission lines . Medium - sized power versions are used in power - control circuits such as camera flash controllers . Larger power versions are used in the electrical power distribution industry to interface low - voltage control circuitry to the high - voltage gates of power semiconductors . Special high voltage pulse transformers are also used to generate high power pulses for radar , particle accelerators , or other high energy pulsed power applications . To minimize distortion of the pulse shape , a pulse transformer needs to have low values of leakage inductance and distributed capacitance , and a high open - circuit inductance . In power - type pulse transformers , a low coupling capacitance ( between the primary and secondary ) is important to protect the circuitry on the primary side from high - powered transients created by the load . For the same reason , high insulation resistance and high breakdown voltage are required . A good transient response is necessary to maintain the rectangular pulse shape at the secondary , because a pulse with slow edges would create switching losses in the power semiconductors . The product of the peak pulse voltage and the duration of the pulse ( or more accurately , the voltage - time integral ) is often used to characterise pulse transformers . Generally speaking , the larger this product , the larger and more expensive the transformer . Pulse transformers by definition have a duty cycle of less than 0.5 ; whatever energy stored in the coil during the pulse must be `` dumped '' out before the pulse is fired again . RF transformer ( edit ) There are several types of transformer used in radio frequency ( RF ) work . Laminated steel is not suitable for RF . Air - core transformer ( edit ) These are used for high frequency work . The lack of a core means very low inductance . All current excites current and induces secondary voltage which is proportional to the mutual inductance . Such transformers may be nothing more than a few turns of wire soldered onto a printed circuit board . Ferrite - core transformer ( edit ) Ferrite - core transformers are widely used in impedance matching transformers for RF , especially for baluns ( see below ) for TV and radio antennas . Many only have one or two turns . Transmission - line transformer ( edit ) For radio frequency use , transformers are sometimes made from configurations of transmission line , sometimes bifilar or coaxial cable , wound around ferrite or other types of core . This style of transformer gives an extremely wide bandwidth but only a limited number of ratios ( such as 1 : 9 , 1 : 4 or 1 : 2 ) can be achieved with this technique . The core material increases the inductance dramatically , thereby raising its Q factor . The cores of such transformers help improve performance at the lower frequency end of the band . RF transformers sometimes used a third coil ( called a tickler winding ) to inject feedback into an earlier ( detector ) stage in antique regenerative radio receivers . In RF and microwave systems , a quarter - wave impedance transformer provides a way of matching impedances between circuits over a limited range of frequencies , using only a length of transmission line . The line may be coaxial cable , waveguide , stripline or microstripline . Balun ( edit ) Main article : Balun Baluns are transformers designed specifically to connect between balanced ( non-grounded ) and unbalanced ( grounded ) circuits . These are sometimes made from configurations of transmission line and sometimes bifilar or coaxial cable and are similar to transmission line transformers in construction and operation . Baluns can be designed to not only interface between balanced and unbalanced loads , but to additionally provide impedance matching between those load types . IF transformer ( edit ) Ferrite - core transformers are widely used in ( intermediate frequency ) ( IF ) stages in superheterodyne radio receivers . They are mostly tuned transformers , containing a threaded ferrite slug that is screwed in or out to adjust IF tuning . The transformers are usually canned ( shielded ) for stability and to reduce interference . Audio transformer ( edit ) Two speaker - level audio transformers in a tube amplifier are seen on the left . The power supply toroidal transformer is on right Five audio transformers for various line level purposes . The two black boxes on the left contain 1 : 1 transformers for splitting signals , balancing unbalanced signals , or isolating two different AC ground systems to eliminate buzz and hum . The two cylindrical metal cases fit into octal sockets ; each one contains a 1 : 1 line transformer , the first is rated at 600 ohms , the second is rated at 15,000 ohms . On the far right is a DI unit ; its 12 : 1 transformer ( with yellow insulation ) changes a high impedance unbalanced input to a low impedance balanced output . Audio transformers are those specifically designed for use in audio circuits to carry audio signal . They can be used to block radio frequency interference or the DC component of an audio signal , to split or combine audio signals , or to provide impedance matching between high impedance and low impedance circuits , such as between a high impedance tube ( valve ) amplifier output and a low impedance loudspeaker , or between a high impedance instrument output and the low impedance input of a mixing console . Audio transformers that operate with loudspeaker voltages and current are larger than those that operate at microphone or line level , which carry much less power . Bridge transformers connect 2 - wire and 4 - wire communication circuits . Being magnetic devices , audio transformers are susceptible to external magnetic fields such as those generated by AC current - carrying conductors . `` Hum '' is a term commonly used to describe unwanted signals originating from the `` mains '' power supply ( typically 50 or 60 Hz ) . Audio transformers used for low - level signals , such as those from microphones , often include magnetic shielding to protect against extraneous magnetically coupled signals . Audio transformers were originally designed to connect different telephone systems to one another while keeping their respective power supplies isolated , and are still commonly used to interconnect professional audio systems or system components , to eliminate buzz and hum . Such transformers typically have a 1 : 1 ratio between the primary and the secondary . These can also be used for splitting signals , balancing unbalanced signals , or feeding a balanced signal to unbalanced equipment . Transformers are also used in DI boxes to convert high - impedance instrument signals ( e.g. , bass guitar ) to low impedance signals to enable them to connect to a microphone input on the mixing console . A particularly critical component is the output transformer of a valve amplifier . Valve circuits for quality reproduction have long been produced with no other ( inter-stage ) audio transformers , but an output transformer is needed to couple the relatively high impedance ( up to a few hundred ohms depending upon configuration ) of the output valve ( s ) to the low impedance of a loudspeaker . ( The valves can deliver a low current at a high voltage ; the speakers require high current at low voltage . ) Most solid - state power amplifiers need no output transformer at all . Audio transformers affect the sound quality because they are non-linear . Harmonic distortion is added to the original signal , especially odd - order harmonics with an emphasis on third - order harmonics . When the incoming signal amplitude is very low there is not enough level to energize the magnetic core ( see coercivity and magnetic hysteresis ) . When the incoming signal amplitude is very high the transformer saturates and adds ringing harmonics . Another non-linearity comes from limited frequency response . For good low - frequency response a relatively large magnetic core is required ; high power handling increases the required core size . Good high - frequency response requires carefully designed and implemented windings without excessive leakage inductance or stray capacitance . All this makes for an expensive component . Early transistor audio power amplifiers often had output transformers , but they were eliminated as advances in semiconductors allowed the design of amplifiers with sufficiently low output impedance to drive a loudspeaker directly . Loudspeaker transformer ( edit ) Loudspeaker transformer in old radio In the same way that transformers create high voltage power transmission circuits that minimize transmission losses , loudspeaker transformers can power many individual loudspeakers from a single audio circuit operated at higher than normal loudspeaker voltages . This application is common in public address applications . Such circuits are commonly referred to as constant - voltage speaker systems . Such systems are also known by the nominal voltage of the loudspeaker line , such as 25 - , 70 - and 100 - volt speaker systems ( the voltage corresponding to the power rating of a speaker or amplifier ) . A transformer steps up the output of the system 's amplifer to the distribution voltage . At the distant loudspeaker locations , a step - down transformer matches the speaker to the rated voltage of the line , so the speaker produces rated nominal output when the line is at nominal voltage . Loudspeaker transformers commonly have multiple primary taps to adjust the volume at each speaker in steps . Output transformer ( edit ) Valve ( tube ) amplifiers almost always use an output transformer to match the high load impedance requirement of the valves ( several kilohms ) to a low impedance speaker Small signal transformer ( edit ) Moving coil phonograph cartridges produce a very small voltage . For this to be amplified with a reasonable signal - noise ratio usually requires a transformer to convert the voltage to the range of the more common moving - magnet cartridges . Microphones may also be matched to their load with a small transformer , which is mumetal shielded to minimise noise pickup . These transformers are less widely used today , as transistorized buffers are now cheaper . Interstage and coupling transformers ( edit ) In a push -- pull amplifier , an inverted signal is required and can be obtained from a transformer with a center - tapped winding , used to drive two active devices in opposite phase . These phase splitting transformers are not much used today . Other types ( edit ) This section does not cite any sources . Please help improve this section by adding citations to reliable sources . Unsourced material may be challenged and removed . ( January 2013 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) Transactor ( edit ) A transactor is a combination of a transformer and a reactor . A transactor has an iron core with an air - gap , which limits the coupling between windings . Hedgehog ( edit ) Hedgehog transformers are occasionally encountered in homemade 1920s radios . They are homemade audio interstage coupling transformers . Enamelled copper wire is wound round the central half of the length of a bundle of insulated iron wire ( e.g. , florists ' wire ) , to make the windings . The ends of the iron wires are then bent around the electrical winding to complete the magnetic circuit , and the whole is wrapped with tape or string to hold it together . Variometer and variocoupler ( edit ) Variometer used in 1920s radio receiver A variometer is a type of continuously variable air - core RF inductor with two windings . One common form consisted of a coil wound on a short hollow cylindrical form , with a second smaller coil inside , mounted on a shaft so its magnetic axis can be rotated with respect to the outer coil . The two coils are connected in series . When the two coils are collinear , with their magnetic fields pointed in the same direction , the two magnetic fields add , and the inductance is maximum . If the inner coil is rotated so its axis is at an angle to the outer coil , the magnetic fields do not add and the inductance is less . If the inner coil is rotated so it is collinear with the outer coil but their magnetic fields point in opposite directions , the fields cancel each other out and the inductance is very small or zero . The advantage of the variometer is that inductance can be adjusted continuously , over a wide range . Variometers were widely used in 1920s radio receivers . One of their main uses today is as antenna matching coils to match longwave radio transmitters to their antennas . The vario - coupler was a device with similar construction , but the two coils were not connected but attached to separate circuits . So it functioned as an air - core RF transformer with variable coupling . The inner coil could be rotated from 0 ° to 90 ° angle with the outer , reducing the mutual inductance from maximum to near zero . The pancake coil variometer was another common construction used in both 1920s receivers and transmitters . It consists of two flat spiral coils suspended vertically facing each other , hinged at one side so one could swing away from the other to an angle of 90 ° to reduce the coupling . The flat spiral design served to reduce parasitic capacitance and losses at radio frequencies . Pancake or `` honeycomb '' coil vario - couplers were used in the 1920s in the common Armstrong or `` tickler '' regenerative radio receivers . One coil was connected to the detector tube 's grid circuit . The other coil , the `` tickler '' coil was connected to the tube 's plate ( output ) circuit . It fed back some of the signal from the plate circuit into the input again , and this positive feedback increased the tube 's gain and selectivity . Rotary transformer ( edit ) Main article : Rotary transformer A rotary ( rotatory ) transformer is a specialized transformer that couples electrical signals between two parts that rotate in relation to each other -- as an alternative to slip rings , which are prone to wear and contact noise . They are commonly used in helical scan magnetic tape applications . Variable differential transformer ( edit ) Main articles : Linear variable differential transformer and rotary variable differential transformer A variable differential transformer is a rugged non-contact position sensor . It has two oppositely - phased primaries which nominally produce zero output in the secondary , but any movement of the core changes the coupling to produce a signal . Resolver and synchro ( edit ) Main articles : Resolver ( electrical ) and synchro The two - phase resolver and related three - phase synchro are rotary position sensors which work over a full 360 ° . The primary is rotated within two or three secondaries at different angles , and the amplitudes of the secondary signals can be decoded into an angle . Unlike variable differential transformers , the coils , and not just the core , move relative to each other , so slip rings are required to connect the primary . Resolvers produce in - phase and quadrature components which are useful for computation . Synchros produce three - phase signals which can be connected to other synchros to rotate them in a generator / motor configuration .

The bottom ( using radar ) is the rock layer underneath , revealing black channels cut by the meandering of an ancient river that once fed the oasis . The Sahara ( Arabic : الصحراء الكبرى , aṣ - ṣaḥrāʼ al - kubrá , ' the Great Desert ' ) is the largest hot desert and the third largest desert in the world after Antarctica and the Arctic . Its area of 9,200,000 square kilometres ( 3,600,000 sq mi ) is comparable to the area of China or the United States . The name ' Sahara ' is derived from dialectal Arabic word for `` desert '' , ṣaḥra ( صحرا / ˈsʕaħra / ) . The desert comprises much of North Africa , excluding the fertile region on the Mediterranean Sea coast , the Atlas Mountains of the Maghreb , and the Nile Valley in Egypt and Sudan . It stretches from the Red Sea in the east and the Mediterranean in the north to the Atlantic Ocean in the west , where the landscape gradually changes from desert to coastal plains . To the south , it is bounded by the Sahel , a belt of semi-arid tropical savanna around the Niger River valley and the Sudan Region of Sub-Saharan Africa . The Sahara can be divided into several regions including : the western Sahara , the central Ahaggar Mountains , the Tibesti Mountains , the Aïr Mountains , the Ténéré desert , and the Libyan Desert . For several hundred thousand years , the Sahara has alternated between desert and savanna grassland in a 41,000 year cycle caused by changes ( `` precession '' ) in the Earth 's axis as it rotates around the sun , which change the location of the North African Monsoon . It is next expected to become green in about 15,000 years ( 17,000 AD ) .

An oasis in the Ahaggar Mountains . Oases support some life forms in extremely arid deserts . An intense Saharan dust storm sent a massive dust plume northwestward over the Atlantic Ocean on 2 March 2003 Butte naturally sculpted by the wind The Sahara covers large parts of Algeria , Chad , Egypt , Libya , Mali , Mauritania , Niger , Western Sahara , Sudan and Tunisia . It covers 9 million square kilometres ( 3,500,000 sq mi ) , amounting to 31 % of Africa . If all areas with a mean annual precipitation of less than 250 mm were included , the Sahara would be 11 million square kilometres ( 4,200,000 sq mi ) . It is one of three distinct physiographic provinces of the African massive physiographic division . The Sahara is mainly rocky hamada ( stone plateaus ) , Ergs ( sand seas - large areas covered with sand dunes ) form only a minor part , but many of the sand dunes are over 180 metres ( 590 ft ) high . Wind or rare rainfall shape the desert features : sand dunes , dune fields , sand seas , stone plateaus , gravel plains ( reg ) , dry valleys ( wadi ) , dry lakes ( oued ) , and salt flats ( shatt or chott ) . Unusual landforms include the Richat Structure in Mauritania . Several deeply dissected mountains , many volcanic , rise from the desert , including the Aïr Mountains , Ahaggar Mountains , Saharan Atlas , Tibesti Mountains , Adrar des Iforas , and the Red Sea hills . The highest peak in the Sahara is Emi Koussi , a shield volcano in the Tibesti range of northern Chad . The central Sahara is hyperarid , with sparse vegetation . The northern and southern reaches of the desert , along with the highlands , have areas of sparse grassland and desert shrub , with trees and taller shrubs in wadis , where moisture collects . In the central , hyperarid region , there are many subdivisions of the great desert : Tanezrouft , the Ténéré , the Libyan Desert , the Eastern Desert , the Nubian Desert and others . These extremely arid areas often receive no rain for years . To the north , the Sahara skirts the Mediterranean Sea in Egypt and portions of Libya , but in Cyrenaica and the Maghreb , the Sahara borders the Mediterranean forest , woodland , and scrub eco-regions of northern Africa , all of which have a Mediterranean climate characterized by hot summers and cool and rainy winters . According to the botanical criteria of Frank White and geographer Robert Capot - Rey , the northern limit of the Sahara corresponds to the northern limit of date palm cultivation and the southern limit of the range of esparto , a grass typical of the Mediterranean climate portion of the Maghreb and Iberia . The northern limit also corresponds to the 100 mm ( 3.9 in ) isohyet of annual precipitation . To the south , the Sahara is bounded by the Sahel , a belt of dry tropical savanna with a summer rainy season that extends across Africa from east to west . The southern limit of the Sahara is indicated botanically by the southern limit of Cornulaca monacantha ( a drought - tolerant member of the Chenopodiaceae ) , or northern limit of Cenchrus biflorus , a grass typical of the Sahel . According to climatic criteria , the southern limit of the Sahara corresponds to the 150 mm ( 5.9 in ) isohyet of annual precipitation ( this is a long - term average , since precipitation varies annually ) . Important cities located in the Sahara include Nouakchott , the capital of Mauritania ; Tamanrasset , Ouargla , Béchar , Hassi Messaoud , Ghardaïa , and El Oued in Algeria ; Timbuktu in Mali ; Agadez in Niger ; Ghat in Libya ; and Faya - Largeau in Chad . Climate The Sahara is the world 's largest low - latitude hot desert . The area is located in the horse latitudes under the subtropical ridge , a significant belt of semi-permanent subtropical warm - core high pressure where the air from upper levels of the troposphere tends to sink towards the ground . This steady descending airflow causes a warming and a drying effect in the upper troposphere . The sinking air prevents evaporating water from rising and , therefore , prevents the adiabatic cooling , which makes cloud formation extremely difficult to nearly impossible . The permanent dissolution of clouds allows unhindered light and thermal radiation . The stability of the atmosphere above the desert prevents any convective overturning , thus making rainfall virtually non-existent . As a consequence , the weather tends to be sunny , dry and stable with a minimal risk of rainfall . Subsiding , diverging , dry air masses associated with subtropical high - pressure systems are extremely unfavorable for the development of convectional showers . The subtropical ridge is the predominant factor that explains the hot desert climate ( Köppen climate classification BWh ) of this vast region . The lowering of air is the strongest and the most effective over the eastern part of the Great Desert , in the Libyan Desert which is the sunniest , driest and the most nearly `` rain-less '' place on the planet rivaling the Atacama Desert , lying in Chile and Peru . The rainfall inhibition and the dissipation of cloud cover are most accentuated over the eastern section of the Sahara rather than the western . The prevailing air mass lying above the Sahara is the continental tropical ( cT ) air mass , which is hot and dry . Hot , dry air masses primarily form over the North - African desert from the heating of the vast continental land area , and it affects the whole desert during most of the year . Because of this extreme heating process , a thermal low is usually noticed near the surface , and is the strongest and the most developed during the summertime . The Sahara High represents the eastern continental extension of the Azores High , centered over the North Atlantic Ocean . The subsidence of the Sahara High nearly reaches the ground during the coolest part of the year while it is confined to the upper troposphere during the hottest periods . The effects of local surface low pressure are extremely limited because upper - level subsidence still continues to block any form of air ascent . Also , to be protected against rain - bearing weather systems by the atmospheric circulation itself , the desert is made even drier by his geographical configuration and location . Indeed , the extreme aridity of the Sahara can not be only explained by the subtropical high pressure . The Atlas Mountains , found in Algeria , Morocco and Tunisia also help to enhance the aridity of the northern part of the desert . These major mountain ranges act as a barrier causing a strong rain shadow effect on the leeward side by dropping much of the humidity brought by atmospheric disturbances along the polar front which affects the surrounding Mediterranean climates . The primary source of rain in the Sahara is the Intertropical Convergence Zone , a continuous belt of low - pressure systems near the equator which bring the brief , short and irregular rainy season to the Sahel and southern Sahara . Rainfall in this giant desert has to overcome the physical and atmospheric barriers that normally prevent the production of precipitation . The harsh climate of the Sahara is characterized by : extremely low , unreliable , highly erratic rainfall ; extremely high sunshine duration values ; high temperatures year - round ; negligible rates of relative humidity ; a significant diurnal temperature variation ; and extremely high levels of potential evaporation which are the highest recorded worldwide . Temperature The sky is usually clear above the desert and the sunshine duration is extremely high everywhere in the Sahara . Most of the desert enjoys more than 3,600 h of bright sunshine annually or over 82 % of the time , and a wide area in the eastern part experiences in excess of 4,000 h of bright sunshine a year or over 91 % of the time . The highest values are very close to the theoretical maximum value . A value of 4,300 h or 98 % of the time would be recorded in Upper Egypt ( Aswan , Luxor ) and in the Nubian Desert ( Wadi Halfa ) . The annual average direct solar irradiation is around 2,800 kWh / ( m year ) in the Great Desert . The Sahara has a huge potential for solar energy production . Sahara desert The constantly high position of the sun , the extremely low relative humidity , and the lack of vegetation and rainfall make the Great Desert the hottest continuously large area worldwide , and the hottest place on Earth during summer in some spots . The average high temperature exceeds 38 to 40 ° C or 100.4 to 104.0 ° F during the hottest month nearly everywhere in the desert except at very high altitudes . The highest officially recorded average high temperature was 47 ° C or 116.6 ° F in a remote desert town in the Algerian Desert called Bou Bernous with an elevation of 378 metres ( 1,240 ft ) meters above sea level . It is the world 's highest recorded average high temperature and only Death Valley , California rivals it . Other hot spots in Algeria such as Adrar , Timimoun , In Salah , Ouallene , Aoulef , Reggane with an elevation between 200 and 400 metres ( 660 and 1,310 ft ) above sea level get slightly lower summer average highs around 46 ° C or 114.8 ° F during the hottest months of the year . Salah , well known in Algeria for its extreme heat , has average high temperatures of 43.8 ° C or 110.8 ° F , 46.4 ° C or 115.5 ° F , 45.5 ° C or 113.9 ° F and 41.9 ° C or 107.4 ° F in June , July , August and September respectively . There are even hotter spots in the Sahara , but they are located in extremely remote areas , especially in the Azalai , lying in northern Mali . The major part of the desert experiences around three to five months when the average high strictly exceeds 40 ° C or 104 ° F. The southern central part of the desert experiences up to six or seven months when the average high temperature strictly exceeds 40 ° C or 104 ° F which shows the constancy and the length of the really hot season in the Sahara . Some examples of this are : Bilma , Niger and Faya - Largeau , Chad . The annual average daily temperature exceeds 20 ° C or 68 ° F everywhere and can approach 30 ° C or 86 ° F in the hottest regions year - round . However , most of the desert has a value in excess of 25 ° C or 77 ° F . Sand and ground temperatures are even more extreme . During daytime , the sand temperature is extremely high as it can easily reach 80 ° C or 176 ° F or more . A sand temperature of 83.5 ° C ( 182.3 ° F ) has been recorded in Port Sudan . Ground temperatures of 72 ° C or 161.6 ° F have been recorded in the Adrar of Mauritania and a value of 75 ° C ( 167 ° F ) has been measured in Borkou , northern Chad . Due to lack of cloud cover and very low humidity , the desert usually features high diurnal temperature variations between days and nights . However , it is a myth that the nights are cold after extremely hot days in the Sahara . The average diurnal temperature range is typically between 13 and 20 ° C or 23.4 and 36.0 ° F. The lowest values are found along the coastal regions due to high humidity and are often even lower than 10 ° C or 18 ° F , while the highest values are found in inland desert areas where the humidity is the lowest , mainly in the southern Sahara . Still , it is true that winter nights can be cold as it can drop to the freezing point and even below , especially in high - elevation areas . The frequency of subfreezing winter nights in the Sahara is strongly influenced by the North Atlantic Oscillation ( NAO ) , with warmer winter temperatures during negative NAO events and cooler winters with more frosts when the NAO is positive . This is because the weaker clockwise flow around the eastern side of the subtropical anticyclone during negative NAO winters , although too dry to produce more than negligible precipitation , does reduce the flow of dry , cold air from higher latitudes of Eurasia into the Sahara significantly . Precipitation The average annual rainfall ranges from very low in the northern and southern fringes of the desert to nearly non-existent over the central and the eastern part . The thin northern fringe of the desert receives more winter cloudiness and rainfall due to the arrival of low pressure systems over the Mediterranean Sea along the polar front , although very attenuated by the rain shadow effects of the mountains and the annual average rainfall ranges from 100 millimetres ( 4 in ) to 250 millimetres ( 10 in ) . For example , Biskra , Algeria and Ouarzazate , Morocco are found in this zone . The southern fringe of the desert along the border with the Sahel receives summer cloudiness and rainfall due to the arrival of the Intertropical Convergence Zone from the south and the annual average rainfall ranges from 100 millimetres ( 4 in ) to 250 millimetres ( 10 in ) . For example , Timbuktu , Mali and Agadez , Niger are found in this zone . The vast central hyper - arid core of the desert is virtually never affected by northerly or southerly atmospheric disturbances and permanently remains under the influence of the strongest anticyclonic weather regime , and the annual average rainfall can drop to less than 1 millimetre ( 0.04 in ) . In fact , most of the Sahara receives less than 20 millimetres ( 0.8 in ) . Of the 9,000,000 square kilometres ( 3,500,000 sq mi ) of desert land in the Sahara , an area of about 2,800,000 square kilometres ( 1,100,000 sq mi ) ( about 31 % of the total area ) receives an annual average rainfall amount of 10 millimetres ( 0.4 in ) or less , while some 1,500,000 square kilometres ( 580,000 sq mi ) ( about 17 % of the total area ) receives an average of 5 millimetres ( 0.2 in ) or less . The annual average rainfall is virtually zero over a wide area of some 1,000,000 square kilometres ( 390,000 sq mi ) in the eastern Sahara comprising deserts of : Libya , Egypt and Sudan ( Tazirbu , Kufra , Dakhla , Kharga , Farafra , Siwa , Asyut , Sohag , Luxor , Aswan , Abu Simbel , Wadi Halfa ) where the long - term mean approximates 0.5 millimetres ( 0.02 in ) per year . Rainfall is very unreliable and erratic in the Sahara as it may vary considerably year by year . In full contrast to the negligible annual rainfall amounts , the annual rates of potential evaporation are extraordinarily high , roughly ranging from 2,500 millimetres ( 100 in ) per year to more than 6,000 millimetres ( 240 in ) per year in the whole desert . Nowhere else on Earth has air been found as dry and evaporative as in the Sahara region . However , at least two instances of snowfall have been recorded in Sahara , in February 1979 and December 2016 , both in the town of Ain Sefra . Desertification and prehistoric climate Main articles : Sahara pump theory , Green Sahara , Prehistoric North Africa , and North African climate cycles The climate of the Sahara has undergone enormous variations between wet and dry over the last few hundred thousand years , believed to be caused by long - term changes in the North African climate cycle that alters the path of the North African Monsoon - usually southward . The cycle is caused by a 41000 - year cycle in which the tilt of the earth changes between 22 ° and 24.5 ° . At present ( 2000 AD ) , we are in a dry period , but it is expected that the Sahara will become green again in 15000 years ( 17000 AD ) . When the North African monsoon is at its strongest annual precipitation and subsequent vegetation in the Sahara region increase , resulting in conditions commonly referred to as the `` green Sahara '' . For a relatively weak North African monsoon , the opposite is true , with decreased annual precipitation and less vegetation resulting in a phase of the Sahara climate cycle known as the `` desert Sahara '' . The idea that changes in insolation ( solar heating ) caused by long - term changes in the Earth 's orbit are a controlling factor for the long - term variations in the strength of monsoon patterns across the globe was first suggested by Rudolf Spitaler in the late nineteenth century , The hypothesis was later formally proposed and tested by the meteorologist John Kutzbach in 1981 . Kutzbach 's ideas about the impacts of insolation on global monsoonal patterns have become widely accepted today as the underlying driver of long term monsoonal cycles . Kutzbach never formally named his hypothesis and as such it is referred to here as the `` Orbital Monsoon Hypothesis '' as suggested by Ruddiman in 2001 . During the last glacial period , the Sahara was much larger than it is today , extending south beyond its current boundaries . The end of the glacial period brought more rain to the Sahara , from about 8000 BC to 6000 BC , perhaps because of low pressure areas over the collapsing ice sheets to the north . Once the ice sheets were gone , the northern Sahara dried out . In the southern Sahara , the drying trend was initially counteracted by the monsoon , which brought rain further north than it does today . By around 4200 BC , however , the monsoon retreated south to approximately where it is today , leading to the gradual desertification of the Sahara . The Sahara is now as dry as it was about 13,000 years ago . The Sahara pump theory describes this cycle . During periods of a wet or `` Green Sahara '' , the Sahara becomes a savanna grassland and various flora and fauna become more common . Following inter-pluvial arid periods , the Sahara area then reverts to desert conditions and the flora and fauna are forced to retreat northwards to the Atlas Mountains , southwards into West Africa , or eastwards into the Nile Valley . This separates populations of some of the species in areas with different climates , forcing them to adapt , possibly giving rise to allopatric speciation . It is also proposed that humans accelerated the drying out period from 6,000 -- 2,500 BC by pastoralists overgrazing available grassland . Evidence for cycles The growth of speleothems ( which requires rainwater ) was detected in Hol - Zakh , Ashalim , Even - Sid , Ma'ale - ha - Meyshar , Ktora Cracks , Nagev Tzavoa Cave , and elsewhere , and has allowing tracking of prehistoric rainfall . The Red Sea coastal route was extremely arid before 140 and after 115 kya . Slightly wetter conditions appear at 90 -- 87 kya , but it still was just one tenth the rainfall around 125 kya . In the southern Negev Desert speleothems did not grow between 185 -- 140 kya ( MIS 6 ) , 110 -- 90 ( MIS 5.4 -- 5.2 ) , nor after 85 kya nor during most of the interglacial period ( MIS 5.1 ) , the glacial period and Holocene . This suggests that the southern Negev was arid to hyper - arid in these periods . During the Last Glacial Maximum ( LGM ) the Sahara desert was more extensive than it is now with the extent of the tropical forests being greatly reduced , and the lower temperatures reduced the strength of the Hadley Cell . This is a climate cell which causes rising tropical air of the Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone ( ITCZ ) to bring rain to the tropics , while dry descending air , at about 20 degrees north , flows back to the equator and brings desert conditions to this region . It is associated with high rates of wind - blown mineral dust , and these dust levels are found as expected in marine cores from the north tropical Atlantic . But around 12,500 BC the amount of dust in the cores in the Bølling / Allerød phase suddenly plummets and shows a period of much wetter conditions in the Sahara , indicating a Dansgaard - Oeschger ( DO ) event ( a sudden warming followed by a slower cooling of the climate ) . The moister Saharan conditions had begun about 12,500 BC , with the extension of the ITCZ northward in the northern hemisphere summer , bringing moist wet conditions and a savanna climate to the Sahara , which ( apart from a short dry spell associated with the Younger Dryas ) peaked during the Holocene thermal maximum climatic phase at 4000 BC when mid-latitude temperatures seem to have been between 2 and 3 degrees warmer than in the recent past . Analysis of Nile River deposited sediments in the delta also shows this period had a higher proportion of sediments coming from the Blue Nile , suggesting higher rainfall also in the Ethiopian Highlands . This was caused principally by a stronger monsoonal circulation throughout the sub-tropical regions , affecting India , Arabia and the Sahara . Lake Victoria only recently became the source of the White Nile and dried out almost completely around 15 kya . The sudden subsequent movement of the ITCZ southwards with a Heinrich event ( a sudden cooling followed by a slower warming ) , linked to changes with the El Niño - Southern Oscillation cycle , led to a rapid drying out of the Saharan and Arabian regions , which quickly became desert . This is linked to a marked decline in the scale of the Nile floods between 2700 and 2100 BC . Ecoregions The major topographic features of the Saharan region . The Sahara comprises several distinct ecoregions . With their variations in temperature , rainfall , elevation , and soil , these regions harbor distinct communities of plants and animals . The Atlantic coastal desert is a narrow strip along the Atlantic coast where fog generated offshore by the cool Canary Current provides sufficient moisture to sustain a variety of lichens , succulents , and shrubs . It covers an area of 39,900 square kilometers ( 15,400 sq mi ) in the south of Morocco and Mauritania . The North Saharan steppe and woodlands is along the northern desert , next to the Mediterranean forests , woodlands , and scrub ecoregions of the northern Maghreb and Cyrenaica . Winter rains sustain shrublands and dry woodlands that form a transition between the Mediterranean climate regions to the north and the hyper - arid Sahara proper to the south . It covers 1,675,300 square kilometers ( 646,840 sq mi ) in Algeria , Egypt , Libya , Mauritania , Morocco , and Tunisia . The Sahara Desert ecoregion covers the hyper - arid central portion of the Sahara where rainfall is minimal and sporadic . Vegetation is rare , and this ecoregion consists mostly of sand dunes ( erg , chech , raoui ) , stone plateaus ( hamadas ) , gravel plains ( reg ) , dry valleys ( wadis ) , and salt flats . It covers 4,639,900 square kilometres ( 1,791,500 sq mi ) of : Algeria , Chad , Egypt , Libya , Mali , Mauritania , Niger , and Sudan . The South Saharan steppe and woodlands ecoregion is a narrow band running east and west between the hyper - arid Sahara and the Sahel savannas to the south . Movements of the equatorial Intertropical Convergence Zone ( ITCZ ) bring summer rains during July and August which average 100 to 200 mm ( 4 to 8 in ) but vary greatly from year to year . These rains sustain summer pastures of grasses and herbs , with dry woodlands and shrublands along seasonal watercourses . This ecoregion covers 1,101,700 square kilometres ( 425,400 sq mi ) in Algeria , Chad , Mali , Mauritania , and Sudan . In the West Saharan montane xeric woodlands , several volcanic highlands provide a cooler , moister environment that supports Saharo - Mediterranean woodlands and shrublands . The ecoregion covers 258,100 square kilometres ( 99,650 sq mi ) , mostly in the Tassili n'Ajjer of Algeria , with smaller enclaves in the Aïr of Niger , the Dhar Adrar of Mauritania , and the Adrar des Iforas of Mali and Algeria . The Tibesti - Jebel Uweinat montane xeric woodlands ecoregion consists of the Tibesti and Jebel Uweinat highlands . Higher and more regular rainfall and cooler temperatures support woodlands and shrublands of Date palm , acacias , myrtle , oleander , tamarix , and several rare and endemic plants . The ecoregion covers 82,200 square kilometres ( 31,700 sq mi ) in the Tibesti of Chad and Libya , and Jebel Uweinat on the border of Egypt , Libya , and Sudan . The Saharan halophytics is an area of seasonally flooded saline depressions which is home to halophytic ( salt - adapted ) plant communities . The Saharan halophytics cover 54,000 square kilometres ( 21,000 sq mi ) including : the Qattara and Siwa depressions in northern Egypt , the Tunisian salt lakes of central Tunisia , Chott Melghir in Algeria , and smaller areas of Algeria , Mauritania , and the southern part of Morocco . The Tanezrouft is one of the harshest regions on Earth as well as one of the hottest and driest parts of the Sahara , with no vegetation and very little life . It is along the borders of Algeria , Niger ) ) and Mali , west of the Hoggar mountains . Flora and fauna The flora of the Sahara is highly diversified based on the bio-geographical characteristics of this vast desert . Floristically , the Sahara has three zones based on the amount of rainfall received -- the Northern ( Mediterranean ) , Central and Southern Zones . There are two transitional zones -- the Mediterranean - Sahara transition and the Sahel transition zone . The Saharan flora comprises around 2800 species of vascular plants . Approximately a quarter of these are endemic . About half of these species are common to the flora of the Arabian deserts . The central Sahara is estimated to include five hundred species of plants , which is extremely low considering the huge extent of the area . Plants such as acacia trees , palms , succulents , spiny shrubs , and grasses have adapted to the arid conditions , by growing lower to avoid water loss by strong winds , by storing water in their thick stems to use it in dry periods , by having long roots that travel horizontally to reach the maximum area of water and to find any surface moisture , and by having small thick leaves or needles to prevent water loss by evapotranspiration . Plant leaves may dry out totally and then recover . Camels in the Guelta d'Archei , in north - eastern Chad . Several species of fox live in the Sahara including : the fennec fox , pale fox and Rüppell 's fox . The addax , a large white antelope , can go nearly a year in the desert without drinking . The dorcas gazelle is a north African gazelle that can also go for a long time without water . Other notable gazelles include the rhim gazelle and dama gazelle . The Saharan cheetah ( northwest African cheetah ) lives in Algeria , Togo , Niger , Mali , Benin , and Burkina Faso . There remain fewer than 250 mature cheetahs , which are very cautious , fleeing any human presence . The cheetah avoids the sun from April to October , seeking the shelter of shrubs such as balanites and acacias . They are unusually pale . The other cheetah subspecies ( northeast African cheetah ) lives in Chad , Sudan and the eastern region of Niger . However , it is currently extinct in the wild in Egypt and Libya . There are approximately 2000 mature individuals left in the wild . An Idehan Ubari oasis lake , with native grasses and date palms Other animals include the monitor lizards , hyrax , sand vipers , and small populations of African wild dog , in perhaps only 14 countries and red - necked ostrich . Other animals exist in the Sahara ( birds in particular ) such as African silverbill and black - faced firefinch , among others . There are also small desert crocodiles in Mauritania and the Ennedi Plateau of Chad . The deathstalker scorpion can be 10 cm ( 3.9 in ) long . Its venom contains large amounts of agitoxin and scyllatoxin and is very dangerous ; however , a sting from this scorpion rarely kills a healthy adult . The Saharan silver ant is unique in that due to the extreme high temperatures of their habitat , and the threat of predators , the ants are active outside their nest for only about ten minutes per day . Dromedary camels and goats are the domesticated animals most commonly found in the Sahara . Because of its qualities of endurance and speed , the dromedary is the favourite animal used by nomads . Human activities are more likely to affect the habitat in areas of permanent water ( oases ) or where water comes close to the surface . Here , the local pressure on natural resources can be intense . The remaining populations of large mammals have been greatly reduced by hunting for food and recreation . In recent years development projects have started in the deserts of Algeria and Tunisia using irrigated water pumped from underground aquifers . These schemes often lead to soil degradation and salinization . Researchers from Hacettepe University ( Yücekutlu , N. et al. , 2011 ) have reported that Saharan soil may have bio-available iron and also some essential macro and micro nutrient elements suitable for use as fertilizer for growing wheat . History People lived on the edge of the desert thousands of years ago since the end of the last glacial period . The Sahara was then a much wetter place than it is today . Over 30,000 petroglyphs of river animals such as crocodiles survive , with half found in the Tassili n'Ajjer in southeast Algeria . Fossils of dinosaurs , including Afrovenator , Jobaria and Ouranosaurus , have also been found here . The modern Sahara , though , is not lush in vegetation , except in the Nile Valley , at a few oases , and in the northern highlands , where Mediterranean plants such as the olive tree are found to grow . It was long believed that the region had been this way since about 1600 BCE , after shifts in the Earth 's axis increased temperatures and decreased precipitation , which led to the abrupt desertification of North Africa about 5,400 years ago . However , this theory has recently been called into dispute , when samples taken from several 7 million year old sand deposits led scientists to reconsider the timeline for desertification . Kiffians The Kiffian culture is a prehistoric industry , or domain , that existed between 10,000 and 8,000 years ago in the Sahara , during the Neolithic Subpluvial . Human remains from this culture were found in 2000 at a site known as Gobero , located in Niger in the Ténéré Desert . The site is known as the largest and earliest grave of Stone Age people in the Sahara desert . The Kiffians were skilled hunters . Bones of many large savannah animals that were discovered in the same area suggest that they lived on the shores of a lake that was present during the Holocene Wet Phase , a period when the Sahara was verdant and wet . The Kiffian people were tall , standing over six feet in height . Craniometric analysis indicates that this early Holocene population was closely related to the Late Pleistocene Iberomaurusians and early Holocene Capsians of the Maghreb , as well as mid-Holocene Mechta groups . Traces of the Kiffian culture do not exist after 8,000 years ago , as the Sahara went through a dry period for the next thousand years . After this time , the Tenerian culture colonized the area . Tenerians Gobero was discovered in 2000 during an archaeological expedition led by Paul Sereno , which sought dinosaur remains . Two distinct prehistoric cultures were discovered at the site : the early Holocene Kiffian culture , and the middle Holocene Tenerian culture . The Kiffians were a prehistoric people who preceded the Tenerians and vanished approximately 8000 years ago , when the desert became very dry . The desiccation lasted until around 4600 BC , when the earliest artefacts associated with the Tenerians have been dated to . Some 200 skeletons have been discovered at Gobero . The Tenerians were considerably shorter in height and less robust than the earlier Kiffians . Craniometric analysis also indicates that they were osteologically distinct . The Kiffian skulls are akin to those of the Late Pleistocene Iberomaurusians , early Holocene Capsians , and mid-Holocene Mechta groups , whereas the Tenerian crania are more like those of Mediterranean groups . Graves show that the Tenerians observed spiritual traditions , as they were buried with artifacts such as jewelry made of hippo tusks and clay pots . The most interesting find is a triple burial , dated to 5300 years ago , of an adult female and two children , estimated through their teeth as being five and eight years old , hugging each other . Pollen residue indicates they were buried on a bed of flowers . The three are assumed to have died within 24 hours of each other , but as their skeletons hold no apparent trauma ( they did not die violently ) and they have been buried so elaborately - unlikely if they had died of a plague - the cause of their deaths is a mystery . Tashwinat mummy Uan Muhuggiag appears to have been inhabited from at least the 6th millennium BC to about 2700 BC , although not necessarily continuously . The most noteworthy find at Uan Muhuggiag is the well - preserved mummy of a young boy of approximately 2 1 / 2 years old . The child was in a fetal position , then embalmed , then placed in a sack made of antelope skin , which was insulated by a layer of leaves . The boy 's organs were removed , as evidenced by incisions in his stomach and thorax , and an organic preservative was inserted to stop his body from decomposing . An ostrich eggshell necklace was also found around his neck . Radiocarbon dating determined the age of the mummy to be approximately 5600 years old , which makes it about 1000 years older than the earliest previously recorded mummy in ancient Egypt . In 1958 - 1959 , an archaeological expedition led by Antonio Ascenzi conducted anthropological , radiological , histological and chemical analyses on the Uan Muhuggiag mummy . The specimen was determined to be that of a 30 - month old child of uncertain sex , who possessed Negroid features . A long incision on the specimen 's abdominal wall also indicated that the body had been initially mummified by evisceration and later underwent natural desiccation . One other individual , an adult , was found at Uan Muhuggiag , buried in a crouched position . However , the body showed no evidence of evisceration or any other method of preservation . The body was estimated to date from about 7500 BP . Nubians Further information : Sahara pump theory and Neolithic Subpluvial Beni Isguen , a holy city surrounded by thick walls in the Algerian Sahara . During the Neolithic Era , before the onset of desertification around 9500 BCE , the central Sudan had been a rich environment supporting a large population ranging across what is now barren desert , like the Wadi el - Qa'ab . By the 5th millennium BCE , the people who inhabited what is now called Nubia , were full participants in the `` agricultural revolution '' , living a settled lifestyle with domesticated plants and animals . Saharan rock art of cattle and herdsmen suggests the presence of a cattle cult like those found in Sudan and other pastoral societies in Africa today . Megaliths found at Nabta Playa are overt examples of probably the world 's first known archaeoastronomy devices , predating Stonehenge by some 2,000 years . This complexity , as observed at Nabta Playa , and as expressed by different levels of authority within the society there , likely formed the basis for the structure of both the Neolithic society at Nabta and the Old Kingdom of Egypt . Egyptians By 6000 BCE predynastic Egyptians in the southwestern corner of Egypt were herding cattle and constructing large buildings . Subsistence in organized and permanent settlements in predynastic Egypt by the middle of the 6th millennium BCE centered predominantly on cereal and animal agriculture : cattle , goats , pigs and sheep . Metal objects replaced prior ones of stone . Tanning of animal skins , pottery and weaving were commonplace in this era also . There are indications of seasonal or only temporary occupation of the Al Fayyum in the 6th millennium BCE , with food activities centering on fishing , hunting and food - gathering . Stone arrowheads , knives and scrapers from the era are commonly found . Burial items included pottery , jewelry , farming and hunting equipment , and assorted foods including dried meat and fruit . Burial in desert environments appears to enhance Egyptian preservation rites , and the dead were buried facing due west . By 3400 BCE , the Sahara was as dry as it is today , due to reduced precipitation and higher temperatures resulting from a shift in the Earth 's orbit . As a result of this aridification , it became a largely impenetrable barrier to humans , with the remaining settlements mainly being concentrated around the numerous oases that dot the landscape . Little trade or commerce is known to have passed through the interior in subsequent periods , the only major exception being the Nile Valley . The Nile , however , was impassable at several cataracts , making trade and contact by boat difficult . Phoenicians Further information : History of Western Sahara The people of Phoenicia , who flourished from 1200 -- 800 BCE , created a confederation of kingdoms across the entire Sahara to Egypt . They generally settled along the Mediterranean coast , as well as the Sahara , among the people of ancient Libya , who were the ancestors of people who speak Berber languages in North Africa and the Sahara today , including the Tuareg of the central Sahara . Azalai salt caravan . The French reported that the 1906 caravan numbered 20,000 camels . The Phoenician alphabet seems to have been adopted by the ancient Libyans of north Africa , and Tifinagh is still used today by Berber - speaking Tuareg camel herders of the central Sahara . Sometime between 633 BCE and 530 BCE , Hanno the Navigator either established or reinforced Phoenician colonies in Western Sahara , but all ancient remains have vanished with virtually no trace . Greeks By 500 BCE , Greeks arrived in the desert . Greek traders spread along the eastern coast of the desert , establishing trading colonies along the Red Sea . The Carthaginians explored the Atlantic coast of the desert , but the turbulence of the waters and the lack of markets caused a lack of presence further south than modern Morocco . Centralized states thus surrounded the desert on the north and east ; it remained outside the control of these states . Raids from the nomadic Berber people of the desert were of constant concern to those living on the edge of the desert . Urban civilization Market on the main square of Ghardaïa ( 1971 ) An urban civilization , the Garamantes , arose around 500 BCE in the heart of the Sahara , in a valley that is now called the Wadi al - Ajal in Fezzan , Libya . The Garamantes achieved this development by digging tunnels far into the mountains flanking the valley to tap fossil water and bring it to their fields . The Garamantes grew populous and strong , conquering their neighbors and capturing many slaves ( who were put to work extending the tunnels ) . The ancient Greeks and the Romans knew of the Garamantes and regarded them as uncivilized nomads . However , they traded with them , and a Roman bath has been found in the Garamantes ' capital of Garama . Archaeologists have found eight major towns and many other important settlements in the Garamantes ' territory . The Garamantes ' civilization eventually collapsed after they had depleted available water in the aquifers and could no longer sustain the effort to extend the tunnels further into the mountains . Berbers Zawiya at the entrance of Taghit , Algeria The Berber people occupied ( and still occupy ) much of the Sahara . The Garamantes Berbers built a prosperous empire in the heart of the desert . The Tuareg nomads continue to inhabit and move across wide Sahara surfaces to the present day . Islamic expansion Main articles : Trans - Saharan trade and Islamization of Sudan The Byzantine Empire ruled the northern shores of the Sahara from the 5th to the 7th centuries . After the Muslim conquest of Arabia , specifically the Arabian peninsula , the Muslim conquest of North Africa began in the mid-7th to early 8th centuries and Islamic influence expanded rapidly on the Sahara . By the end of 641 all of Egypt was in Muslim hands . Trade across the desert intensified , and a significant slave trade crossed the desert . It has been estimated that from the 10th to 19th centuries some 6,000 to 7,000 slaves were transported north each year . The Tuareg once controlled the central Sahara and its trade . Ottoman turkish era In the 16th century the northern fringe of the Sahara , such as coastal regencies in present - day Algeria and Tunisia , as well as some parts of present - day Libya , together with the semi-autonomous kingdom of Egypt , were occupied by the Ottoman Empire . From 1517 Egypt was a valued part of the Ottoman Empire , ownership of which provided the Ottomans with control over the Nile Valley , the east Mediterranean and North Africa . The benefit of the Ottoman Empire was the freedom of movement for citizens and goods . Traders exploited the Ottoman land routes to handle the spices , gold and silk from the East , manufactured goods from Europe , and the slave and gold traffic from Africa . Arabic continued as the local language and Islamic culture was much reinforced . The Sahel and southern Sahara regions were home to several independent states or to roaming Tuareg clans . European colonialism European colonialism in the Sahara began in the 19th century . France conquered the regency of Algiers from the Ottomans in 1830 , and French rule spread south from Algeria and eastwards from Senegal into the upper Niger to include present - day Algeria , Chad , Mali then French Sudan including Timbuktu , Mauritania , Morocco ( 1912 ) , Niger , and Tunisia ( 1881 ) . By the beginning of the 20th century , the trans - Saharan trade had clearly declined because goods were moved through more modern and efficient means , such as airplanes , rather than across the desert . The French Colonial Empire was the dominant presence in the Sahara . It established regular air links from Toulouse ( HQ of famed Aéropostale ) , to Oran and over the Hoggar to Timbuktu and West to Bamako and Dakar , as well as trans - Sahara bus services run by La Companie Transsaharienne ( est. 1927 ) . A remarkable film shot by famous aviator Captain René Wauthier documents the first crossing by a large truck convoy from Algiers to Tchad , across the Sahara . Egypt , under Muhammad Ali and his successors , conquered Nubia in 1820 -- 22 , founded Khartoum in 1823 , and conquered Darfur in 1874 . Egypt , including the Sudan , became a British protectorate in 1882 . Egypt and Britain lost control of the Sudan from 1882 to 1898 as a result of the Mahdist War . After its capture by British troops in 1898 , the Sudan became an Anglo - Egyptian condominium . Spain captured present - day Western Sahara after 1874 , although Rio del Oro remained largely under Sahrawi influence . In 1912 , Italy captured parts of what was to be named Libya from the Ottomans . To promote the Roman Catholic religion in the desert , Pope Pius IX appointed a delegate Apostolic of the Sahara and the Sudan in 1868 ; later in the 19th century his jurisdiction was reorganized into the Vicariate Apostolic of Sahara . Breakup of the empires and afterwards A natural rock arch in south western Libya The Sahara today Egypt became independent of Britain in 1936 , although the Anglo - Egyptian treaty of 1936 allowed Britain to keep troops in Egypt and to maintain the British - Egyptian condominium in the Sudan . British military forces were withdrawn in 1954 . Most of the Saharan states achieved independence after World War II : Libya in 1951 ; Morocco , Sudan , and Tunisia in 1956 ; Chad , Mali , Mauritania , and Niger in 1960 ; and Algeria in 1962 . Spain withdrew from Western Sahara in 1975 , and it was partitioned between Mauritania and Morocco . Mauritania withdrew in 1979 ; Morocco continues to hold the territory . In the post-World War II era , several mines and communities have developed to utilize the desert 's natural resources . These include large deposits of oil and natural gas in Algeria and Libya , and large deposits of phosphates in Morocco and Western Sahara . A number of Trans - African highways have been proposed across the Sahara , including the Cairo -- Dakar Highway along the Atlantic coast , the Trans - Sahara Highway from Algiers on the Mediterranean to Kano in Nigeria , the Tripoli -- Cape Town Highway from Tripoli in Libya to N'Djamena in Chad , and the Cairo -- Cape Town Highway which follows the Nile . Each of these highways is partially complete , with significant gaps and unpaved sections . People and languages A 19th - century engraving of an Arab slave - trading caravan transporting black African slaves across the Sahara . The people of the Sahara are of various origins . Among them the Amaziɣ including the Turūq , various Arabized Amaziɣ groups such as the Hassaniya - speaking Sahrawis , whose populations include the Znaga , a tribe whose name is a remnant of the pre-historic Zenaga language . Other major groups of people include the : Toubou , Nubians , Zaghawa , Kanuri , Hausa , Songhai , Beja , and Fula / Fulani ( French : Peul ; Fula : Fulɓe ) . Arabic dialects are the most widely spoken languages in the Sahara . Arabic , Berber and its variants now regrouped under the term Amazigh ( which includes the Guanche language spoken by the original Berber inhabitants of the Canary Islands ) and Beja languages are part of the Afro - Asiatic or Hamito - Semitic family . Unlike neighboring West Africa and the central governments of the states that comprise the Sahara , the French language bears little relevance to inter-personal discourse and commerce within the region , its people retaining staunch ethnic and political affiliations with Tuareg and Berber leaders and culture . The legacy of the French colonial era administration is primarily manifested in the territorial reorganization enacted by the Third and Fourth republics , which engendered artificial political divisions within a hitherto isolated and porous region . Diplomacy with local clients was conducted primarily in Arabic , which was the traditional language of bureaucratic affairs . Mediation of disputes and inter-agency communication was served by interpreters contracted by the French government , who , according to Keenan , `` documented a space of intercultural mediation , '' contributing much to preserving the indigenous cultural identities in the region .

Angular cheilitis - wikipedia Angular cheilitis Jump to : navigation , search Angular cheilitis Synonyms Rhagades , perlèche , cheilosis , angular cheilosis , commissural cheilitis , angular stomatitis Bilateral angular cheilitis in an elderly individual with false teeth , iron deficiency anemia and dry mouth Pronunciation / kaɪˈlaɪtɪs / Specialty Dermatology Symptoms Redness , skin breakdown and crusting at the corner of the mouth Usual onset Children , 30s to 60s Duration Days to years Causes Infection , irritation , allergies Treatment Based on cause , barrier cream Frequency 0.7 % of the population Angular cheilitis ( AC ) , is inflammation of one or both corners of the mouth . Often the corners are red with skin breakdown and crusting . It can also be itchy or painful . The condition can last for days to years . Angular cheilitis is a type of cheilitis ( inflammation of the lips ) . Angular cheilitis can be caused by infection , irritation , or allergies . Infections include by fungi such as Candida albicans and bacteria such as Staph . aureus . Irritants include poorly fitting dentures , licking the lips or drooling , mouth breathing resulting in a dry mouth , sun exposure , overclosure of the mouth , smoking , and minor trauma . Allergies may include substances like toothpaste , makeup , and food . Often a number of factors are involved . Other factors may include poor nutrition or poor immune function . Diagnosis may be helped by testing for infections and patch testing for allergies . Treatment for angular cheilitis is typically based on the underlying causes along with the use of a barrier cream . Frequently an antifungal and antibacterial cream is also tried . Angular cheilitis is a fairly common problem , with estimates that it affects 0.7 % of the population . It occurs most often in the 30s to 60s , although is also relatively common in children . In the developing world , iron and vitamin deficiencies are a common cause .

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

Cape of Good Hope - Wikipedia Cape of Good Hope Jump to : navigation , search For other uses , see Cape of Good Hope ( disambiguation ) . This article needs additional citations for verification . Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources . Unsourced material may be challenged and removed . ( January 2011 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) The Cape of Good Hope ; looking towards the west , from the coastal cliffs above Cape Point , overlooking Dias beach The Cape of Good Hope ( Afrikaans : Kaap die Goeie Hoop ( ˌkɑːp di ˌχujə ˈɦʊəp ) , Dutch : Kaap de Goede Hoop ( ˌkaːb də ˌɣudə ˈɦoːp ) ( listen ) , Portuguese : Cabo da Boa Esperança ( ˈkabu dɐ ˈboɐ ʃpɨˈɾɐ̃sɐ ) ) is a rocky headland on the Atlantic coast of the Cape Peninsula , South Africa . A common misconception is that the Cape of Good Hope is the southern tip of Africa . This misconception was based on the misbelief that the Cape was the dividing point between the Atlantic and Indian Oceans . Contemporary scientific knowledge instead states the southernmost point of Africa is Cape Agulhas about 150 kilometres ( 90 mi ) to the east - southeast . The currents of the two oceans meet at the point where the warm - water Agulhas current meets the cold water Benguela current and turns back on itself . That oceanic meeting point fluctuates between Cape Agulhas and Cape Point ( about 1.2 kilometres ( 0.75 mi ) east of the Cape of Good Hope ) . When following the western side of the African coastline from the equator , however , the Cape of Good Hope marks the point where a ship begins to travel more eastward than southward . Thus , the first modern rounding of the cape in 1488 by Portuguese explorer Bartolomeu Dias was a milestone in the attempts by the Portuguese to establish direct trade relations with the Far East ( although Herodotus mentioned a claim that the Phoenicians had done so far earlier ) . Dias called the cape Cabo das Tormentas ( `` Cape of Storms '' ; Dutch : Stormkaap ) , which was the original name of the `` Cape of Good Hope '' . As one of the great capes of the South Atlantic Ocean , the Cape of Good Hope has long been of special significance to sailors , many of whom refer to it simply as `` the Cape '' . It is a waypoint on the Cape Route and the clipper route followed by clipper ships to the Far East and Australia , and still followed by several offshore yacht races . The term Cape of Good Hope is also used in three other ways : It is a section of the Table Mountain National Park , within which the cape of the same name , as well as Cape Point , falls . Prior to its incorporation into the national park , this section constituted the Cape Point Nature Reserve . It was the name of the early Cape Colony established by the Dutch in 1652 , on the Cape Peninsula . Just before the Union of South Africa was formed , the term referred to the entire region that in 1910 was to become the Cape of Good Hope Province ( usually shortened to the Cape Province ) . Contents ( hide ) 1 History 2 Geography 3 Fauna 3.1 Chacma baboons 4 Flora 5 Legends 6 See also 7 References 8 External links History ( edit ) Eudoxus of Cyzicus ( / ˈjuːdəksəs / ; Greek : Εὔδοξος , Eúdoxos ; fl . c. 130 BC ) was a Greek navigator for Ptolemy VIII , king of the Hellenistic Ptolemaic dynasty in Egypt , who found the wreck of a ship in the Indian Ocean that appeared to have come from Gades ( today 's Cádiz in Spain ) , rounding the Cape . When Eudoxus was returning from his second voyage to India the wind forced him south of the Gulf of Aden and down the coast of Africa for some distance . Somewhere along the coast of East Africa , he found the remains of the ship . Due to its appearance and the story told by the natives , Eudoxus concluded that the ship was from Gades and had sailed anti-clockwise around Africa , passing the Cape and entering the Indian Ocean . This inspired him to repeat the voyage and attempt a circumnavigation of the continent . Organising the expedition on his own account he set sail from Gades and began to work down the African coast . The difficulties were too great , however , and he was obliged to return to Europe . After this failure he again set out to circumnavigate Africa . His eventual fate is unknown . Although some , such as Pliny , claimed that Eudoxus did achieve his goal , the most probable conclusion is that he perished on the journey . In the 1450 Fra Mauro map , the Indian Ocean is depicted as connected to the Atlantic . Fra Mauro puts the following inscription by the southern tip of Africa , which he names the `` Cape of Diab '' , describing the exploration by a ship from the East around 1420 : Detail of the Fra Mauro Map describing the construction of the junks that navigate in the Indian Ocean . `` Around 1420 a ship , or junk , from India crossed the Sea of India towards the Island of Men and the Island of Women , off Cape Diab , between the Green Islands and the shadows . It sailed for 40 days in a south - westerly direction without ever finding anything other than wind and water . According to these people themselves , the ship went some 2,000 miles ahead until - once favourable conditions came to an end - it turned round and sailed back to Cape Diab in 70 days '' . `` The ships called junks ( lit . `` Zonchi '' ) that navigate these seas carry four masts or more , some of which can be raised or lowered , and have 40 to 60 cabins for the merchants and only one tiller . They can navigate without a compass , because they have an astrologer , who stands on the side and , with an astrolabe in hand , gives orders to the navigator `` . ( Text from the Fra Mauro map , 09 - P25 . ) Fra Mauro explained that he obtained the information from `` a trustworthy source '' , who traveled with the expedition , possibly the Venetian explorer Niccolò da Conti who happened to be in Calicut , India at the time the expedition left : `` What is more , I have spoken with a person worthy of trust , who says that he sailed in an Indian ship caught in the fury of a tempest for 40 days out in the Sea of India , beyond the Cape of Soffala and the Green Islands towards west - southwest ; and according to the astrologers who act as their guides , they had advanced almost 2,000 miles . Thus one can believe and confirm what is said by both these and those , and that they had therefore sailed 4,000 miles '' . Fra Mauro also comments that the account of the expedition , together with the relation by Strabo of the travels of Eudoxus of Cyzicus from Arabia to Gibraltar through the southern Ocean in Antiquity , led him to believe that the Indian Ocean was not a closed sea and that Africa could be circumnavigated by her southern end ( Text from Fra Mauro map , 11 , G2 ) . This knowledge , together with the map depiction of the African continent , probably encouraged the Portuguese to intensify their effort to round the tip of Africa .

The main mountains and their peaks , including Table Mountain , and its relation to the City of Cape Town are shown . Map of the Cape of Good Hope and Cape Agulhas the southernmost point of Africa . Main article : Cape Colony Reproduction of the Cross of Vasco da Gama at the Cape of Good Hope . In the Early Modern Era , the first European to reach the cape was the Portuguese explorer Bartolomeu Dias on 12 March 1488 , who named it the `` Cape of Storms '' ( Cabo das Tormentas ) . It was later renamed by John II of Portugal as `` Cape of Good Hope '' ( Cabo da Boa Esperança ) because of the great optimism engendered by the opening of a sea route to India and the East . The land around the cape was home to the Khoikhoi people when the Dutch first settled there in 1652 . The Khoikhoi had arrived in these parts about fifteen hundred years before . They were called Hottentots by the Dutch , a term that has now come to be regarded as pejorative . Dutch colonial administrator Jan van Riebeeck established a resupply camp for the Dutch East India Company some 50 km north of the cape in Table Bay on 6 April 1652 and this eventually developed into Cape Town . Supplies of fresh food were vital on the long journey around Africa and Cape Town became known as `` The Tavern of the Seas '' . On 31 December 1687 a community of Huguenots -- who are Protestants -- arrived at the Cape of Good Hope from the Netherlands . They had escaped to the Netherlands from France in order to flee religious persecution there ; examples of these are Pierre Joubert who came from La Motte - d'Aigues for religious reasons . The Dutch East India Company needed skilled farmers at the Cape of Good Hope and the Dutch Government saw opportunities for the Huguenots at the Cape and sent them over . The colony gradually grew over the next 150 years or so until it stretched for hundreds of kilometres to the north and north - east . When the Dutch Republic , during the Napoleonic Wars , was occupied by the French in 1795 , henceforth becoming their vassal and enemy of the British , the United Kingdom invaded and occupied the Cape Colony that same year ; relinquished control of the territory in 1803 ; only to return and reoccupy the Cape on 19 January 1806 following the Battle of Blaauwberg . The territory was ceded to the British in the Anglo - Dutch Treaty of 1814 and was thereafter administered as the Cape Colony . It remained a British colony until being incorporated into the independent Union of South Africa in 1910 ( now known as the Republic of South Africa ) . The Portuguese government erected two navigational beacons , Dias Cross and Gama Cross , to commemorate Vasco da Gama and Bartolomeu Dias as explorers who as mentioned were the first explorers to reach the cape . When lined up , the crosses point to Whittle Rock ( 34 ° 21 ′ 24.63 '' S 18 ° 28 ′ 26.36 '' E / 34.3568417 ° S 18.4739889 ° E / - 34.3568417 ; 18.4739889 ) , a large , permanently submerged shipping hazard in False Bay . Two other beacons in Simon 's Town provide the intersection . Geography ( edit ) Sign at the Cape of Good Hope The Cape of Good Hope is at the southern tip of the Cape Peninsula , about 2.3 kilometres ( 1.4 mi ) west and a little south of Cape Point on the south - east corner . Cape Town is about 50 kilometres to the north of the Cape , in Table Bay at the north end of the peninsula . The peninsula forms the western boundary of False Bay . Geologically , the rocks found at the two capes , and indeed over much of the peninsula , are part of the Cape Supergroup , and are formed of the same type of sandstones as Table Mountain itself . Both the Cape of Good Hope and Cape Point offer spectacular scenery ; the whole of the southernmost portion of the Cape Peninsula is a wild , rugged , scenic and generally unspoiled national park . The term the Cape has also been used in a wider sense , to indicate the area of the European colony centred on Cape Town , and the later South African province . Since 1994 , it has been broken up into three smaller provinces : the Western Cape , Eastern Cape and Northern Cape ; parts of the province were also absorbed into the North West . Fauna ( edit ) Male ostrich at the Cape of Good Hope With its diverse habitat , ranging from rocky mountain tops to beaches and open sea , the Cape of Good Hope is home to at least 250 species of birds including one of the two mainland colonies of African penguins . `` Bush birds '' tend to be rather scarce because of the coarse , scrubby nature of fynbos vegetation . When flowering , however , proteas and ericas attract sunbirds , sugarbirds , and other species in search of nectar . For most of the year , there are more small birds in coastal thicket than in fynbos . The Cape of Good Hope section of Table Mountain National Park is home to several species of antelope . Bontebok and eland are easily seen , and red hartebeest can be seen in the grazing lawns in Smitswinkel Flats . Grey rhebok are less commonly seen and are scarce , but may be observed along the beach hills at Olifantsbos . Most visitors are unlikely to ever see either Cape grysbok or klipspringer . The Cape of Good Hope section is home to four Cape mountain zebra . They might be seen by the attentive or lucky visitor , usually in Smitswinkel Flats . There are a wealth of small animals such as lizards , snakes , tortoises and insects . Small mammals include rock hyrax , four - striped grass mouse , water mongoose , Cape clawless otter and fallow deer . The area offers excellent vantage points for whale watching . The southern right whale is the species most likely to be seen in False Bay between June and November . Other species are the humpback whale and Bryde 's whale . Seals , dusky dolphins and killer whales have also been seen . The strategic position of the Cape of Good Hope between two major ocean currents , ensures a rich diversity of marine life . There is a difference between the sea life west of Cape Point and that to the east due to the markedly differing sea temperatures . The South African Marine Living Resources Act is strictly enforced throughout the Table Mountain National Park , and especially in marine protected areas . Disturbance or removal of any marine organisms is strictly prohibited between Schusters Bay and Hoek van Bobbejaan , but is allowed in other areas during season and with relevant permits . Chacma baboons ( edit ) Chacma baboons ( Papio ursinus ) are the mammals most intimately associated with the Cape of Good Hope . Baboons inside the Cape of Good Hope section of the park are a major tourist attraction . There are 11 troops consisting of about 375 individuals throughout the entire Cape Peninsula . Six of these 11 troops either live entirely within the Cape of Good Hope section of the park , or use the section as part of their range . The Cape Point , Kanonkop , Klein Olifantsbos , and Buffels Bay troops live entirely inside the Cape of Good Hope section of the Park . The Groot Olifantsbos and Plateau Road troops range into the park . Chacma baboons are widely distributed across southern Africa and are classified as '' least concern '' in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species . However , the South African Parks Department states in its publication Mountains in the Sea that the baboon population on the Cape is `` critically endangered . '' This is due to habitat loss , genetic isolation , and conflicts with humans . Cape baboons have been eliminated from the majority of their range across the Cape Peninsula , and the Cape of Good Hope section of Table Mountain National Park provides a sanctuary for the troops that live within its boundaries . It provides relative safety from nearby towns , where people have killed many baboons after the baboons raid their houses looking for food . Baboons are also frequently injured or killed outside of the park by cars and by electrocution on power lines . Inside the park , some management policies such as allowing barbecues and picnics in the baboon home ranges cause detriment to the troops , as they become embroiled in conflicts with guests to the park . Flora ( edit ) Fynbos at Cape Peninsula The Cape of Good Hope is an integral part of the Cape Floristic Kingdom , the smallest but richest of the world 's six floral kingdoms . This comprises a treasure trove of 1100 species of indigenous plants , of which a number are endemic ( occur naturally nowhere else on earth ) . The main type of fynbos ( `` fine bush '' ) vegetation at the Cape of Good Hope is Peninsula Sandstone Fynbos , an endangered vegetation type that is endemic to the Cape Peninsula . Coastal Hangklip Sand Fynbos grows on low - lying alkaline sands and , right by the sea , small patches of Cape Flats Dune Strandveld can be found . Characteristic fynbos plants include proteas , ericas ( heath ) , and restios ( reeds ) . Some of the most striking and well - known members belong to the Proteacae family , of which up to 24 species occur . These include king protea , sugarbush , tree pincushion and golden cone bush ( Leucadendron laureolum ) . Many popular horticultural plants like pelargoniums , freesias , daisies , lilies and irises also have their origins in fynbos . Legends ( edit ) The Cape of Good Hope is the legendary home of The Flying Dutchman . Crewed by tormented and damned ghostly sailors , it is doomed forever to beat its way through the adjacent waters without ever succeeding in rounding the headland . Adamastor is a Greek - type mythological character invented by the Portuguese poet Luís de Camões in his epic poem Os Lusíadas ( first printed in 1572 ) , as a symbol of the forces of nature Portuguese navigators had to overcome during their discoveries and more specifically of the dangers Portuguese sailors faced when trying to round the Cape of Storms .
