Returning to her apartment , she finds it ransacked and the apartment supervisor dead . Joan then receives a frantic phone call from Elaine ( held at knife - point by Ira ) , who instructs Joan to go to Colombia with the map she received ; it is Elaine 's ransom . </P> <P> Flying to Colombia , Joan is detoured from the rendezvous point by Colonel Zolo , the man who killed Elaine 's husband , Eduardo . He tricks her into boarding the wrong bus , heading deep into the interior of the country instead of to the coastal city of Cartagena , where Elaine is being held . When Joan distracts the bus driver by asking where they are going , the bus crashes into a Jeep , wrecking both vehicles . As the rest of the passengers walk away , Joan is menaced by Zolo but is saved by the Jeep 's owner , American exotic bird smuggler Jack T. Colton . For getting her out of the jungle and to a telephone , Joan promises to pay Jack $375 in traveler 's cheques . </P> <P> Jack and Joan travel the jungle while eluding the military police and Zolo , who wants the treasure map . After spending a night hiding in a marijuana smuggler 's crashed C - 47 aircraft , they encounter a drug lord named Juan , who is a big fan of Joan 's novels and helps them escape from Zolo . </P> <P> After a night of dancing and passion in a nearby town , Jack suggests to Joan that they find the treasure themselves before handing over the map . They follow the clues and locate an enormous emerald called El Corazón ( `` The Heart '' ) . Unbeknownst to Jack and Joan , they used Ralph 's car for the last leg of their journey while Ralph was sleeping in the back . Ralph takes the emerald from them at gunpoint . When Zolo appears , Jack steals the jewel back , but Jack and Joan are chased into a river and go over a waterfall . They end up on opposite sides of the raging river ; Joan has the map , but Jack has the emerald . Jack directs Joan to Cartagena , promising that he will meet her there . </P> <P> In Cartagena , Joan meets with Ira and Ralph , who are still holding Elaine , but the exchange is interrupted by Zolo and his men , who have also captured Jack . Jack surrenders the emerald to Zolo , but a crocodile bites off Zolo 's hand and swallows it along with the emerald . As a gun battle takes place between Zolo 's soldiers and Ira 's gang , Joan and Elaine dash for safety , pursued by Zolo . Jack tries to stop the crocodile from escaping but lets it go when he sees that Joan is in danger . Zolo

Union Budget of India - Wikipedia <H1> Union Budget of India </H1> Jump to : navigation , search <P> The Union Budget of India , also referred to as the Annual Financial Statement in the Article 112 of the Constitution of India , is the annual budget of the Republic of India . The Government presents it on the first day of February so that it could be materialized before the commencement of new financial year in April . Till 2016 it was presented on the last working day of February by the Finance Minister of India in Parliament . The budget , which is presented by means of the Finance bill and the Appropriation bill has to be passed by both the Houses before it can come into effect from April 1 , the start of India 's financial year . </P> <P> An Interim Budget is not the same as a ' Vote on Account ' . While a ' Vote on Account ' deals only with the expenditure side of the government 's budget , an Interim Budget is a complete set of accounts , including both expenditure and receipts . An Interim Budget gives the complete financial statement , very similar to a full Budget . While the law does not debar the Union government from introducing tax changes , normally during an election year , successive governments have avoided making any major changes in income tax laws during an Interim Budget . </P> <P> As of September 2017 , Morarji Desai has presented 10 budgets which is the highest followed by P Chidambaram 's 9 and Pranab Mukherjee 's 8 . Yashwant Sinha , Yashwantrao Chavan and C.D. Deshmukh have presented 7 budgets each while Manmohan Singh and T.T.

Shanmukham Chetty on November 26 , 1947 . </P> <P> The Union budgets for the fiscal years 1959 - 61 to 1963 - 64 , inclusive of the interim budget for 1962 - 63 , were presented by Morarji Desai. On February 29 in 1964 and 1968 , he became the only finance minister to present the Union budget on his birthday . Desai presented budgets that included five annual budgets and an interim budget during his first stint and three final budgets and one interim budget in his second tenure when he was both the Finance Minister and the Deputy Prime Minister of India . </P> <P> After Desai 's resignation , Indira Gandhi , the then Prime Minister of India , took over the Ministry of Finance to become the only woman to hold the post of the Finance Minister . </P> <P> Pranab Mukherjee , the first Rajya Sabha member to hold the Finance portfolio , presented the annual budgets for the financial years 1982 - 83 , 1983 -- 84 and 1984 - 85 . </P> <P> Rajiv Gandhi presented the budget for 1987 - 89 , after V.P.

Narasimha Rao , in his next annual budgets from 1992 -- 93 , opened the economy , encouraged foreign investments and reduced peak import duty from 300 plus percent to 50 percent . </P> <P> After elections in 1996 , a non-Congress ministry assumed office . Hence the financial budget for 1996 - 97 was presented by P. Chidambaram , who then belonged to Tamil Maanila Congress . </P> <P> Following a constitutional crisis when the I.K. Gujral Ministry was on its way out , a special session of Parliament was convened just to pass Chidambaram 's 1997 - 98 budget . This budget was passed without a debate . </P> <P> After the general elections in March 1998 that led to the Bharatiya Janata Party forming the Central Government , Yashwant Sinha , the then Finance Minister in this government , presented the interim and final budgets for 1998 - 99 . </P> <P> After general elections in 1999 , Sinha again became the Finance Minister and presented four annual budgets from 1999 - 2000 to 2002 - 2003 .

Railway platform - wikipedia <H1> Railway platform </H1> Jump to : navigation , search Platform at Rotterdam Centraal station , Netherlands Station platforms at Arts et Métiers on Paris Métro Line 11 <P> A railway platform is an area -- normally paved or otherwise prepared for pedestrian use , and often raised to a greater or lesser degree -- provided alongside one or more of the tracks at a railway or metro station for use by passengers awaiting , boarding , or alighting from trains . Almost all stations have some form of platform , with larger stations having multiple platforms . The world 's longest station platform is at Gorakhpur Junction in India at 1,355.40 metres . </P> <P> The term `` platform '' is also sometimes applied to any type of raised loading bank provided beside a railway line or siding for the loading and unloading of freight wagons . </P> <P> Among some United States train conductors the word `` platform '' has entered usage as a verb , as in the announcement : `` The last two cars of this train will not platform at East Rockaway '' . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Height relative to trains </Li> <Li> 2 Types of platform </Li> <Li> 3 Identification </Li> <Li> 4 Facilities </Li> <Li> 5 Safety <Ul> <Li> 5.1 High - speed rail </Li> <Li> 5.2 Markings </Li> <Li> 5.3 Curvature </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 Notable examples <Ul> <Li> 6.1 Longest </Li> <Li> 6.2 Sharpest curve </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 7 See also </Li> <Li> 8 References </Li> <Li> 9 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Height relative to trains ( edit ) </H2> Main article : Railway platform height <P> The most basic form of platform consists of an area at the same level as the track , usually resulting in a fairly large height difference between the platform and the train floor . This would often not be considered a true platform . The more traditional platform is elevated relative to the track but often lower than the train floor , although ideally they should be at the same level . Occasionally the platform is higher than the train floor , where a train with a low floor serves a station built for trains with a high floor , for example at the Dutch stations of the DB Regionalbahn Westfalen ( see Enschede ) . On the London Underground some stations are served by both District line and Piccadilly line trains , and the Piccadilly trains have lower floors . </P> <P> A tram stop is often in the middle of the street ; usually it has as a platform a refuge area of a similar height to that of the sidewalk ( e.g. 100 mm ( 3.9 in ) ) , and sometimes has no platform . The latter requires extra care by passengers and other traffic to avoid accidents . Both types of tram stops can be seen in the tram networks of Melbourne and Toronto . Sometimes a tram stop is served by ordinary trams with rather low floors and metro - like light rail vehicles with higher floors , and the tram stop has a dual - height platform , as in Amstelveen , Netherlands . A train station may be served by heavy - rail and light - rail vehicles with lower floors and have a dual - height platform , as on the RijnGouweLijn in the Netherlands . </P> <H2> Types of platform ( edit ) </H2> This diagram illustrates different types of platform . Platform 1 is a `` bay '' platform , while platforms 2 , 3 and 4 are `` through '' platforms . The platform accommodating 3 and 4 is an `` island '' platform <P> Platform types include the bay platform , side platform ( also called through platform ) , split platform and island platform . A bay platform is one at which the track terminates , i.e. a dead - end or siding . Trains serving a bay platform must reverse in or out . A side platform is the more usual type , alongside tracks where the train arrives from one end and leaves towards the other . An island platform has through platforms on both sides ; it may be indented on one or both ends , with bay platforms . To reach an island platform there may be a bridge , a tunnel , or a level crossing . The climb up to the bridge or down to the tunnel may use stairs , ramps , escalators , lifts , or a combination of the above . A variant on the side platform is the spanish solution which has platforms on both sides of a single through track . </P> <H2> Identification ( edit ) </H2> <P> Most stations have their platforms numbered consecutively from 1 ; a few stations , including Cardiff Central , Haymarket , King 's Cross , Stockport , and Gravesend ( in the UK ) ; Uppsala , ( Sweden ) ; and Lidcombe , Sydney ( Australia ) , start from 0 . At Bristol Temple Meads platforms 3 through to 12 are split along their length with odd numbered platforms facing north and east and even facing south and west , with a small signal halfway along the platform . Some , such as London Waterloo East , use letters instead of numbers ( this is to distinguish the platforms from numbered ones in the adjoining Waterloo main - line station for staff who work at both stations ) ; some , such as Paris - Gare de Lyon , use letters for one group of platforms but numbers for the other . </P> <P> Usually platform numbering is a numbering of the boarding areas in the station ( hence one island platform , for example , may have several numbered platforms ) . In some cases , tracks used only for through traffic without platform access also have a number . In North America ,

It lies above the convergent plate margin between the African Plate and the Eurasian Plate . It is the highest active volcano in Europe outside the Caucasus . It is currently 3,329 m ( 10,922 ft ) high , though this varies with summit eruptions . It is the highest peak in Italy south of the Alps .

In Classical Greek , it is called Αἴτνη ( Aítnē ) , a name given also to Catania and the city originally known as Inessa . In Latin it is called Aetna . In Arabic , it was called جبل النار Jabal al - Nār ( the Mountain of Fire ) . </P> <P> It is also known as Mungibeddu in Sicilian and Mongibello or Montebello in Italian ( the Italian word literally means `` beautiful mountain '' ) . According to another hypothesis , the term Mongibello comes from the Latin Mulciber ( qui ignem mulcet , `` who placates the fire '' ) , one of the Latin names of the Roman god Vulcan . Another theory is that Mongibello came from Italian monte plus Arabic jabal , both meaning `` mountain '' . </P> <P> Now , the term Mongibello indicates the mountain 's top area of the two central craters encompassing also the craters in the southeast and the northeast of the volcanic cone . </P> <P> The name Mongibel is found in Arthurian Romance , as the name of the otherworld castle ( or realm ) of Morgan le Fay and her half - brother , King Arthur , localised at Etna , according to traditions concerning

They are all members of the Meyerist Movement , which combines aspects of New Age philosophy , shamanism , Scientology , Christian mysticism and Utopianism with a few elements from the Shakers , Sufism , Tibetan Buddhism and Freemasonry ritual . Eddie returns from Peru , where he had undergone a spiritual retreat designed to advance him further up Meyerism 's spiritual ladder . Unbeknownst to his family , while in Peru , Eddie experienced a revelation which causes him to question his faith in Meyerism . Meanwhile , Cal Roberts , a friend of Sarah 's and one of Meyerism 's top leaders , is looking to expand their influence and deal with the imminent death of their founder , Doctor Stephen Meyer . </P> <H3> Meyerism ( edit ) </H3> <P> Meyerism is a fictional movement in the series founded by Dr. Stephen Meyer . In the show 's mythology , on October 28 , 1974 , Meyer literally climbed a ladder of burning light to receive the message of universal truth . Meyer gave to his followers the instructions for their spiritual development , written in the first book of Meyerism , The Ladder . Meyerists believe that all people are damaged which is the cause of the world 's suffering . Through personal enlightenment , they seek to become aware of suffering in themselves and others , and to heal the world , caring deeply about family , humanity and the environment . In this way and others , they create the heavenly Garden of Meyer 's vision here on earth . However , The Ladder foretells that their efforts will be thwarted by non-believers or Ignorant Systemites ( I.S. ) whose selfish actions will result in an apocalypse ; but those who ascend The Ladder of Enlightenment will live forever in The Garden . </P> <P> The Movement claims 6000 members with facilities located in San Diego , California , and Parksdale , New York , with a retreat center located in Cusco , Peru . Most practice Meyerism in everyday lives , while others have taken vows of service and dedicate themselves to counseling , recruitment and outreach programs . However , founder Stephen Meyer warned against media attention , that the movement should remain small and publicity should be kept to a minimum . Spiritual progress is evaluated on an ascending series of rungs from 1R to 10R , with many decisions made by the senior membership or Upper Rungs ( U.R. ) . Meyerists practice meditation and use biofeedback devices and drugs -- including ayahuasca and cannabis -- to aid in reaching deeper levels of consciousness , and put considerable stock in visions and intuition which are believed to be The Light trying to communicate with them . </P> <P> A Vanity Fair analysis of the show 's first episode described Meyerism as `` inspired by a grab bag of religious practices and cult beliefs '' .

' harm - joy ' ) is the experience of pleasure , joy , or self - satisfaction that comes from learning of or witnessing the troubles , failures , or humiliation of another . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Etymology </Li> <Li> 2 Synonyms </Li> <Li> 3 Related concepts </Li> <Li> 4 Neologisms and variants </Li> <Li> 5 Literary usage and philosophical analysis </Li> <Li> 6 Scientific studies </Li> <Li> 7 See also </Li> <Li> 8 References </Li> <Li> 9 Further reading </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Etymology ( edit ) </H2> <P> Schadenfreude is borrowed from German ; it is a compound of Schaden ' damage , harm ' and Freude ' joy ' . The German word is mentioned in English texts in 1852 and 1867 , but it only appears in running English text in 1895 . In German , it is first attested in the 1740s . </P> <P> Though common nouns are normally not capitalized in English , Schadenfreude is sometimes capitalized following the German convention . </P> <H2> Synonyms ( edit ) </H2> <P> Schadenfreude has equivalents in other languages ( for example , Hebrew ) , but no commonly used precise English equivalent . There are other ways to express the concept in English . </P> <P> `` Epicharikaky '' is a seldom used direct equivalent , borrowed from Greek epichairekakia ( ἐπιχαιρεκακία , first attested in Aristotle ) , from ἐπί epi ' upon ' , χαρά chara ' joy ' , and κακόν kakon ' evil ' . It may also be spelled `` epicaricacy '' . </P> <P> A Roman holiday is a metaphor from Byron 's poem Childe Harold 's Pilgrimage , where a gladiator in ancient Rome expects to be `` butchered to make a Roman holiday '' while the audience would take pleasure from watching his suffering . The term suggests debauchery and disorder in addition to sadistic enjoyment . </P> <P> `` Morose delectation '' ( delectatio morosa in Latin ) , meaning , `` The habit of dwelling with enjoyment on evil thoughts '' . was considered by the medieval church to be a sin . French writer Pierre Klossowski maintained that the appeal of sadism is morose delectation . </P> <P> An English word of similar meaning is `` gloating '' , where `` gloat '' means `` to observe or think about something with triumphant and often malicious satisfaction , gratification , or delight '' ( e.g. , to gloat over an enemy 's misfortune ) . Gloating is differentiated from Schadenfreude in that it does not necessarily require malice ( one may gloat to a friend about having defeated him in a game without ill intent ) , and that it describes an action rather than a state of mind ( one typically gloats to the subject of the misfortune or to a third party ) . On the other hand , unlike Schadenfreude , where the focus is on another 's misfortune , gloating often brings to mind inappropriately celebrating or bragging about one 's own good fortune without any particular focus on the misfortune of others . </P> <P> `` Sadism '' specifically involves the subject deriving pleasure from personally inflicting the usually physical but also just as likely emotional , social , economic pain on another , whereas Schadenfreude is defined merely but the observance of usually only the humiliation or embarrassment of that other . </P> <H2> Related concepts ( edit ) </H2> <P> Permutations of the concept of pleasure at another 's unhappiness are : pleasure at another 's happiness , displeasure at another 's happiness , and displeasure at another 's unhappiness . Words for these concepts are sometimes cited as antonyms to Schadenfreude , as each is the opposite in some way . </P> <P> Pleasure at another 's happiness is described by the Buddhist concept of mudita or the concept of `` compersion '' in the polyamory community . </P> <P> Displeasure at another 's happiness is envy or perhaps jealousy . The recent coinage `` freudenschade '' similarly means sorrow at another 's success . </P> <P> Displeasure at another 's

Norma is depicted as a loving but extremely possessive mother who wants to keep Norman all to herself . As a child , she was abused by her parents and raped by her brother Caleb , and she was also abused by her second husband , Sam ( Norman 's father ) . She sees Norman as the only person in the world who loves her , and pulls him closer every time she is in distress . </P> <H3> Norman Bates ( edit ) </H3> Further information : Norman Bates <P> Norman Bates ( portrayed by Freddie Highmore ) is the series ' co-protagonist , alongside his mother . Norman is depicted as a kind - hearted but deeply troubled boy who has an often unhealthy attachment to Norma . His mother has smothered and sheltered him his whole life , to the point that he is awkward and socially inept , especially around people his own age . As the series progresses , it becomes clear that Norman is mentally ill : he experiences blackouts , during which he hallucinates visions of Norma and behaves violently , before coming to with no recollection of his actions . In seasons three and four , it is becoming clear that he has a split personality , and that his other self -- `` Mother '' -- is gaining control . </P> <H3> Dylan Massett ( edit ) </H3> <P> Dylan Massett ( portrayed by Max Thieriot ) is Norma 's estranged son and Norman 's half - brother . Having grown up largely on his own , he is resourceful , strong - willed and independent . He genuinely cares about Norman , but has a difficult relationship with Norma . He believes that Norma seeks out conflict and drama , and that her treatment of Norman will damage him . When he arrives to White Pine Bay , after recently being laid off , Dylan bonds with Norman and encourages him to have a life outside of Norma . He gets involved in the town 's illicit marijuana business , and quickly rises up the ranks as he wins favor with his superiors . His world comes crashing down , however , when he learns from Norma that he is the product of an incestuous rape -- his true father having been Norma 's brother , Caleb -- and distances himself from the family , moving out of the Bates ' house . He eventually reconnects with his mother and brother in the second season finale . In season three , he becomes increasingly concerned with Norman 's behavior , and tries to convince Norma to seek help for him . He also facilitates a reconciliation between Norma and Caleb after reconnecting with his father and starting a legal medicinal marijuana farm of his own , following a DEA raid which wipes out the town 's cannabis trade . Throughout the season , he starts to grow close to Emma as she assists in looking after Norman , and attempts to raise the funds for her lung transplant , and the two subsequently form a romantic attachment . Dylan leaves for Seattle with Emma and the two subsequently get married and have a daughter . He finds out online that his mother committed suicide and is furious that Norman did not tell him . He returns to White Pine Bay after fearing for Norman 's mental health . Norman later confesses to murder ; Dylan visits Norman 's hearing but is unable to listen to the charges against his brother . After Norman is freed , he goes to the motel and finds Norman in the kitchen with Norma 's corpse . Norman attempts to stab Dylan but is fatally shot by his brother , whom he thanks as he passes away . Dylan then returns to Seattle to be with Emma and their daughter . </P> <H3> Emma Decody ( edit ) </H3> <P> Emma Decody ( portrayed by Olivia Cooke ) is Norman 's best friend . A sufferer of cystic fibrosis , Emma is often seen carrying an oxygen tank . Although Emma is British , having been born in Manchester ( as was Cooke , in real life ) , she speaks with a local American dialect . Identifying with his unusual personality , troubled history and friendly nature , Emma is immediately infatuated with Norman and develops a friendship with him . Norman in turn finds himself warming to her , and , at the request of her father , respects her feelings for him . Seeing this , Norma becomes fond of her and employs Emma at the motel to keep her close to Norman , as well as to provide her with some much - needed maternal support and advice .

police to arrest him for theft . Spike comes to Luther 's rescue by showing the neighbors and officers that Luther has Trogdon 's keys and thus was given permission to borrow the tree . Nora comes home enraged at Luther for making the borrowed Christmas tree a `` Disaster '' and how she had to buy `` Smoked Trout '' to replace the honey ham ( which was crushed by a truck ) . Once it is established why Luther is trying frantically to decorate his home , the neighbors , led by Vic , come out full force to help him and Nora ready it for Blair . Blair calls to say she landed from Miami ; despite this , she is sent by a police transport to their house thus leaving her still unaware of the chaos . </P> <P> After subtly giving everybody , including Blair and Enrique , a half - hearted toast , Luther tries to convince Nora to accept the cruise when she confronts him for the toast , but she refuses , disgusted that he is n't happy Blair is home . Having a change of heart , Luther sadly slips out of the house and goes across the street to the Scheel home . Bev 's cancer , once in remission , has returned and , knowing this may be their last holiday together , Luther insists they take the cruise in place of him and Nora , going so far as to offer to take care of their hated cat , Muffles , so they can go .

He was asked by Grisham to read the book in galley form , assuming he could direct a movie based on it . Roth recalls : `` It turns out he was right . Even while I was reading it , all I could think was that this would make a great Christmas movie . It had humor , it had wonderful characters and it had heart . '' It was a huge change for him as he , who previously directed thrillers , would now do work for a film lighter in tone and style . With the rights of the book received and the May 2000 founding of Revolution Studios , he stated that `` as a start - up company , there was a great deal of work to do in order to get up and running . '' </P> <P> Later , filmmaker Chris Columbus , who also bought the rights to Skipping Christmas and had written a screenplay , called Roth about directing the adaption . As Roth explains : `` Naturally , I thought he was going to direct it . But he said , ' No , you should direct it . ' It turns out I was getting ready to direct another project . But when I read Chris 's script , I knew I had to at least try to direct it . I promised myself that if I could get the right cast in place , I would do it . '' Producer Michael Barnathan said , `` Joe read the script on a Sunday , bought it on Monday , decided he wanted to direct it on Tuesday and by Friday had cast Tim ( Allen ) and Jamie Lee ( Curtis ) . The following Monday morning we started pre-production . '' </P> <H3> Setting ( edit ) </H3> <P> Christmas with the Kranks takes place mostly in the Kranks 's neighborhood of Hemlock Street in Riverside , a suburb of Chicago , Illinois , over the course of four weeks from Thanksgiving to Christmas Eve . Production designer Garreth Stover originally looked for locations with the right weather conditions and suburban ambience for Hemlock Street , as described specifically in Columbus 's script of the film . He was scouting from the metropolitan area of Chicago to Minnesota , but due to the extreme conditions of this part of the United States at the time , the filmmakers felt it was better to set up the neighborhood in an empty location instead of finding one . </P> <P> When looking for a place to build the set 15 weeks before filming began , Stover chose a parking lot of a former Boeing aircraft factory in

Heart of palm - wikipedia <H1> Heart of palm </H1> Jump to : navigation , search Fresh heart of palm <P> Heart of palm is a vegetable harvested from the inner core and growing bud of certain palm trees ( notably the coconut ( Cocos nucifera ) , palmito juçara ( Euterpe edulis ) , Açaí palm ( Euterpe oleracea ) , sabal ( Sabal spp . ) , pupunha and pejibaye ( Bactris gasipaes ) palms ) . Harvesting of many non-cultivated or wild single - stemmed palms results in palm tree death ( e.g. Geonoma edulis ) . However , other palm species are clonal or multi-stemmed plants ( e.g. Prestoea acuminata , Euterpe oleracea ) and moderate harvesting will not kill the entire clonal palm . Heart of palm may be eaten on its own , and often it is eaten in a salad . </P> <P> An alternative to wild heart of palm are palm varieties which have undergone a process of adaptation to become a domesticated farm species . The main variety that has been domesticated is the botanical species Bactris gasipaes , known in Ecuador as chontaduro , in Brazil and Costa Rica as palmito , and in English as the peach palm . This variety is the most widely used for canning . Peach palms are self - suckering and produce multiple stems , up to 40 on one plant , so harvesting several stems from a plant is not so expensive because the plant can live on . Another advantage it has over other palms is that it has been selectively bred to eliminate the vicious thorns of its wild cousins . Since harvesting is still a labor - intensive task , palm hearts are regarded as a delicacy . </P> <P> As of 2008 , Costa Rica is the primary source of fresh palm hearts in the US . The Edible Palm Company located in Orlando , Florida has been the largest importer of sustainably farmed Fresh Hearts of Palm from Costa Rica to the United States since 2002 . Peach palm is also cultivated in Hawaii , and now has limited distribution on the mainland , primarily to the restaurant trade . Florida 's wild Sabal palmetto or cabbage palm was once a source of hearts of palm but is now protected by conservation law . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Harvesting </Li> <Li> 2 Nutrition </Li> <Li> 3 See also </Li> <Li> 4 References </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Harvesting ( edit ) </H2> Heart of palm being prepared in Brazil for sale <P> When harvesting the cultivated young palm , the tree is cut down and the bark is removed leaving layers of white fibers around the center core . During processing the fibers are removed leaving the center core or heart of palm . The center core is attached to a slightly more fibrous cylindrical base with a larger diameter . The entire cylindrical center core and the attached base are edible . The center core is considered more of a delicacy because of its lower fiber content . </P> <H2> Nutrition ( edit ) </H2> <Table> Heart of Palm <Tr> <Th colspan="2"> Nutritional value per 100 g ( 3.5 oz ) </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Energy </Th> <Td> 79.5 kJ ( 19.0 kcal ) </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td colspan="2"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Carbohydrates </Th> <Td> 3.1 g </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Sugars </Th> <Td> 0.0 g </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Dietary fiber </Th> <Td> 1.6 g </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td colspan="2"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td colspan="2"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Fat </Th> <Td> 0.39 g </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td colspan="2"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td colspan="2"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Protein </Th> <Td> 1.55 g </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td colspan="2"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td colspan="2"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Vitamins </Th> <Td> ( % DV ) Qty </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Vitamin A equiv . </Th> <Td> ( 3 % ) 23.4 μg </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Vitamin C </Th> <Td> ( 2 % ) 1.9 mg </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td colspan="2"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td colspan="2"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th colspan="2"> Minerals </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Calcium </Th> <Td> ( 5 % ) 47 mg </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Iron </Th> <Td> ( 16 % ) 2.09 mg </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Sodium </Th> <Td> ( 23 % ) 349 mg </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td colspan="2"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td colspan="2"> Link to USDA Database entry </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td colspan="2"> <Ul> <Li> Units </Li> <Li> μg = micrograms mg = milligrams </Li> <Li> IU = International units </Li> </Ul> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td colspan="2"> Percentages are roughly approximated using US recommendations for adults .

Gaelic Ireland at the time of Christianization in the 5th century . Christianity subsumed or replaced the earlier polytheism and other forms of Celtic paganism by the end of the 7th century . </P> <P> The Norman invasion of the late 12th century marked the beginning of more than 800 years of direct English rule and , later , British involvement in Ireland . In 1177 Prince John Lackland was made Lord of Ireland by his father Henry II of England at the Council of Oxford . The Crown did not attempt to assert full control of the island until the rebellion of the Earl of Kildare threatened English hegemony . Henry VIII proclaimed himself King of Ireland and also tried to introduce the English Reformation , which failed in Ireland . Attempts to either conquer or assimilate the Irish lordships into the Kingdom of Ireland provided the initial impetus for a series of Irish military campaigns between 1534 and 1603 . This period was marked by a Crown policy of plantation , involving the arrival of thousands of English and Scottish Protestant settlers , and the consequent displacement of the pre-plantation Catholic landholders . As the military and political defeat of Gaelic Ireland became more pronounced in the early seventeenth century , sectarian conflict became a recurrent theme in Irish history . </P> <P> The 1614 overthrow of the Catholic majority in the Irish Parliament was realised principally through the creation of numerous new boroughs which were dominated by the new settlers . By the end of the seventeenth century , recusants ( as adherents to the older religion were now termed ) , representing some 85 % of Ireland 's population , were then banned from the Irish Parliament . Protestant domination of Ireland was confirmed after two periods of war between Catholics and Protestants in 1641 - 52 and 1689 - 91 . Political power thereafter rested entirely in the hands of a Protestant Ascendancy minority , while Catholics and members of dissenting Protestant denominations suffered severe political and economic privations under the Penal Laws . The Irish Parliament was abolished from 1 January 1801 in the wake of the republican United Irishmen Rebellion and Ireland became an integral part of a new United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland under the provisions of the Acts of Union 1800 . Although promised a repeal of the Test Act , Catholics were not granted full rights until Catholic Emancipation was attained throughout the new UK in 1829 . This was followed by the first Irish Reform Act 1832 , a principal condition of which was the removal of the poorer Irish freeholders from the franchise . </P> <P> The Irish Parliamentary Party strove from the 1880s to attain Home Rule through the parliamentary constitutional movement , eventually winning the Home Rule Act 1914 , although this Act was suspended at the outbreak of World War I . The Easter Rising staged by republicans two years later brought physical force republicanism back to the forefront of Irish politics . </P> <P> In 1922 , after the Irish War of Independence and the Anglo - Irish Treaty , most of Ireland seceded from the United Kingdom to become the independent Irish Free State , which after the 1937 constitution , began to call itself Ireland . The six northeastern counties , known as Northern Ireland , remained within the United Kingdom . The Irish Civil War followed soon after the War of Independence . The history of Northern Ireland has since been dominated by sporadic sectarian conflict between ( mainly Catholic ) Irish nationalists and ( mainly Protestant ) unionists . This conflict erupted into the Troubles in the late 1960s , until peace was achieved with the Belfast Agreement thirty years later . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Prehistory ( 10,500 BC -- 400 AD ) <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Stone Age to Bronze Age </Li> <Li> 1.2 Iron Age </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Early Christian Ireland ( 400 -- 800 ) </Li> <Li> 3 Early medieval and Viking era ( 800 -- 1166 ) </Li> <Li> 4 Norman Ireland ( 1168 -- 1535 ) <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Arrival of the Normans </Li> <Li> 4.2 Lordship of Ireland </Li> <Li> 4.3 Gaelic resurgence and Norman decline </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 Early modern Ireland ( 1536 -- 1691 ) <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Conquest and rebellion </Li> <Li> 5.2 Wars and penal laws <Ul> <Li> 5.2. 1 Slavery </Li> </Ul> </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 Protestant ascendancy ( 1691 -- 1801 ) </Li> <Li> 7 Union with Great Britain ( 1801 -- 1912 ) </Li> <Li> 8 Home Rule , Easter Rising and War of Independence ( 1912 -- 1922 ) </Li> <Li> 9 Free State and Republic ( 1922 -- present ) </Li> <Li> 10 Northern Ireland ( 1921 -- present ) <Ul> <Li> 10.1 `` A Protestant state '' ( 1921 -- 1972 ) </Li> <Li> 10.2 Direct rule ( 1972 -- 1999 ) </Li> <Li> 10.3 Devolution and direct rule ( 1999 -- present ) </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 11 Modern Ireland </Li> <Li> 12 Flags in Ireland </Li> <Li> 13 Historiography <Ul> <Li> 13.1 Relations with Britain </Li> <Li> 13.2 Recent approaches </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 14 See also </Li> <Li> 15 References </Li> <Li> 16 Further reading <Ul> <Li> 16.1 Historiography </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 17 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Prehistory ( 10,500 BC -- 400 AD ) ( edit ) </H2> Main article : Prehistoric Ireland <H3> Stone Age to Bronze Age ( edit ) </H3> Ireland during the Ice Age <P> What is known of pre-Christian Ireland comes from references in Roman writings , Irish poetry and myth , and archaeology .

Great plague of London - wikipedia <H1> Great plague of London </H1> Jump to : navigation , search Collecting the dead for burial during the Great Plague <P> The Great Plague , lasting from 1665 to 1666 , was the last major epidemic of the bubonic plague to occur in England . It happened within the centuries - long time period of the Second Pandemic , an extended period of intermittent bubonic plague epidemics which began in Europe in 1347 , the first year of the Black Death , an outbreak which included other forms such as pneumonic plague , and lasted until 1750 . </P> <P> The Great Plague killed an estimated 100,000 people -- almost a quarter of London 's population -- in 18 months . The plague was caused by the Yersinia pestis bacterium , which is usually transmitted through the bite of an infected rat flea . </P> <P> The 1665 -- 66 epidemic was on a far smaller scale than the earlier Black Death pandemic ; it was remembered afterwards as the `` great '' plague mainly because it was the last widespread outbreak of bubonic plague in England during the 400 - year timespan of the Second Pandemic . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 London in 1665 </Li> <Li> 2 The recording of deaths </Li> <Li> 3 Preventative measures </Li> <Li> 4 Outbreak <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Early days </Li> <Li> 4.2 Exodus from the city </Li> <Li> 4.3 Height of the epidemic </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 Aftermath </Li> <Li> 6 Impact </Li> <Li> 7 See also </Li> <Li> 8 References </Li> <Li> 9 Bibliography </Li> <Li> 10 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> London in 1665 ( edit ) </H2> Map of London by Wenceslas Hollar , c. 1665 <P> As in other European cities of the period , the plague was endemic in 17th century London . The disease periodically erupted into massive epidemics . There were 30,000 deaths due to the plague in 1603 , 35,000 in 1625 , and 10,000 in 1636 , as well as smaller numbers in other years . </P> <P> During the winter of 1664 , a bright comet was to be seen in the sky and the people of London were fearful , wondering what evil event it portended . London at that time consisted of a city of about 448 acres surrounded by a city wall , which had originally been built to keep out raiding bands . There were gates at Ludgate , Newgate , Aldersgate , Cripplegate , Moorgate and Bishopsgate and to the south lay the River Thames and London Bridge . In the poorer parts of the city , hygiene was impossible to maintain in the overcrowded tenements and garrets . There was no sanitation , and open drains flowed along the centre of winding streets . The cobbles were slippery with animal dung , rubbish and the slops thrown out of the houses , muddy and buzzing with flies in summer and awash with sewage in winter . The City Corporation employed `` rakers '' to remove the worst of the filth and it was transported to mounds outside the walls where it accumulated and continued to decompose . The stench was overwhelming and people walked around with handkerchiefs or nosegays pressed against their nostrils . </P> <P> Some of the city 's necessities such as coal arrived by barge , but most came by road . Carts , carriages , horses and pedestrians were crowded together and the gateways in the wall formed bottlenecks through which it was difficult to progress . The nineteen - arch London Bridge was even more congested . The better - off used hackney carriages and sedan chairs to get to their destinations without getting filthy . The poor walked , and might be splashed by the wheeled vehicles and drenched by slops being thrown out and water falling from the overhanging roofs . Another hazard was the choking black smoke belching forth from factories which made soap , from breweries and iron smelters and from about 15,000 houses burning coal . </P> <P> Outside the city walls , suburbs had sprung up providing homes for the craftsmen and tradespeople who flocked to the already overcrowded city . These were shanty towns with wooden shacks and no sanitation . The government had tried to control this development but had failed and over a quarter of a million people lived here . Other immigrants had taken over fine town houses , vacated by Royalists who had fled the country during the Commonwealth , converting them into tenements with different families in every room . These properties were soon vandalised and became rat - infested slums . </P> <P> Administration of the City of London was organised by the Lord Mayor , Aldermen and common councillors , but not all of the inhabited area generally comprising London was legally part of the City . Both inside the City and outside its boundaries there were also Liberties , which were areas of varying sizes which historically had been granted rights to self - government . Many had been associated with religious institutions , and when these were abolished in the Dissolution of the Monasteries , their historic rights were transferred along with their property to new owners . The walled City was surrounded by a ring of Liberties which had come under its authority , contemporarily called ' the City and Liberties ' , but these were surrounded by further suburbs with varying administrations . Westminster was an independent town with its own liberties , although it was joined to London by urban development . The Tower of London was an independent liberty , as were others . Areas north of the river not part of one of these administrations came under the authority of the county of Middlesex , and south of the river under Surrey . </P> The `` Woodcut '' map of London , dating from the 1560s <P> At that time , bubonic plague was a much feared

The story charts the emotional development of the protagonist , Elizabeth Bennet , who learns the error of making hasty judgments and comes to appreciate the difference between the superficial and the essential . The comedy of the writing lies in the depiction of manners , education , marriage , and money during the British Regency period . </P> <P> Mr. Bennet of the Longbourn estate has five daughters , but his property is entailed , meaning that none of the girls can inherit it . His wife has no fortune , so it is imperative that at least one of the girls marry well in order to support the others on his death . Jane Austen 's opening line , `` It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife '' is a sentence filled with irony and playfulness . The novel revolves around the importance of marrying for love , not simply for money , despite the social pressures to make a good ( i.e. wealthy ) match . </P> <P> Pride and Prejudice retains the fascination of modern readers , consistently appearing near the top of lists of `` most - loved books '' among both literary scholars and the general public . It has become one of the most popular novels in English literature , with over 20 million copies sold , and paved the way for many archetypes that abound in modern literature . Continuing interest in the book has resulted in a number of dramatic adaptations and an abundance of novels and stories imitating Austen 's memorable characters or themes . The 2005 film , Pride and Prejudice , starring Keira Knightley and Matthew Macfadyen is the most recent Hollywood adaption of the book . </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Plot summary </Li> <Li> 2 Main characters </Li> <Li> 3 Major themes <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Marriage </Li> <Li> 3.2 Wealth </Li> <Li> 3.3 Class </Li> <Li> 3.4 Self knowledge </Li> <Li> 3.5 Style </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Development of the novel </Li> <Li> 5 Publication history </Li> <Li> 6 Reception <Ul> <Li> 6.1 At first publication </Li> <Li> 6.2 Late 19th to 21st centuries </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 7 Adaptations <Ul> <Li> 7.1 Film , television and theatre </Li> <Li> 7.2 Literature </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 8 References </Li> <Li> 9 External links </Li> </Ul> <H2> Plot summary ( edit ) </H2> <P> The novel opens with Mrs. Bennet trying to persuade Mr. Bennet to visit Mr. Bingley , an eligible bachelor who has arrived in the neighborhood .

The visit is followed by an invitation to a ball at the local assembly rooms that the whole neighbourhood will attend . </P> <P> At the ball , Mr. Bingley is open and cheerful , popular with all the guests , and appears to be very attracted to the beautiful Miss Jane Bennet . His friend , Mr. Darcy , is reputed to be twice as wealthy ; however , he is haughty and aloof . He declines to dance with Elizabeth , suggesting that she is not pretty enough to tempt him . She finds this amusing and jokes about the statement with her friends . Mr. Bingley 's sister , Caroline , later invites Jane to visit . </P> <P> When Jane visits Miss Bingley , she is caught in a rain shower on the way and comes down with a serious cold .

'' , is one of the best - known American songs of the Great Depression . Written in 1930 by lyricist E.Y. `` Yip '' Harburg and composer Jay Gorney , `` Brother , Can You Spare a Dime ? '' was part of the 1932 musical revue Americana ; the melody is based on a Russian - Jewish lullaby Gorney 's mother had sung to him as a child . It was considered by Republicans to be anti-capitalist propaganda , and almost dropped from the show ; attempts were made to ban it from the radio . The song became best known , however , through recordings by Bing Crosby and Rudy Vallee . They were released right before Franklin Delano Roosevelt 's election to the presidency . The Brunswick Crosby recording made on October 25 , 1932 with Lennie Hayton and his Orchestra became the best - selling record of its period , and came to be viewed as an anthem to the shattered dreams of the era . </P> <P> </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Summary </Li> <Li> 2 Musical structure </Li> <Li> 3 Update </Li> <Li> 4 Other recordings </Li> <Li> 5 Notes </Li> <Li> 6 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Summary ( edit ) </H2> <P> In the song a beggar talks back to the system that stole his job . Gorney said in an interview in 1974 `` I did n't want a song to depress people . I wanted to write a song to make people think . It is n't a hand - me - out song of ' give me a dime , I 'm starving , I 'm bitter ' , it was n't that kind of sentimentality '' . The song asks why the men who built the nation -- built the railroads , built the skyscrapers -- who fought in the war ( World War I ) , who tilled the earth , who did what their nation asked of them should , now that the work is done and their labor no longer necessary , find themselves abandoned and in bread lines . Asking for an act of charity , the singer requests a Dime ( equivalent to $1.46 in 2017 ) . </P> <P> It refers to `` Yankee Doodle Dum '' , a reference to patriotism , and the evocation of veterans also recalls protests about military bonuses payable only after 21 years , which were a topical issue . </P> <H2> Musical structure ( edit ) </H2> <P> The song has unusual structure for a Broadway song . Firstly , rather than starting in a major key , as most Broadway songs do , it begins in a minor key , which is darker and more appropriate for the Depression . When discussing the prosperous past and building the railroads , the song jumps an octave and moves briefly into a major key , evoking energy and optimism . It then reverts to the augmented dominant of the minor key in the word `` time '' in the line `` Once I built a railroad , made it run / Made it race against time , '' marking the end of prosperous times , and changing to a wistful mood . The song then ends , not on a note of resignation , but with anger -- repeating the beginning ( as is usual for Broadway songs ) , an octave higher , but with a significant change : the friendly `` Brother , can you spare a dime ? '' is replaced with the more assertive `` Buddy , can you spare a dime ? '' </P> <H2> Update ( edit ) </H2> <P> During the malaise of the 1970s stagflation , the New York Times asked Harburg to update `` Brother '' for a new age , and he responded with : </P> <P> Once we had a Roosevelt Praise the Lord ! Life had meaning and hope . Now we 're stuck with Nixon , Agnew , Ford , Brother , can you spare a rope ? </P> <H2> Other recordings ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> The Dave Brubeck Quartet released a jazz instrumental arrangement of the piece on their 1955 album , Brubeck Time ; Brubeck plays main phrase on piano in many styles including rag and baroque . </Li> <Li> Peter , Paul & Mary recorded a studio version under the title `` Buddy , Can You Spare A Dime ?

The Eagles had been one of the most successful teams in the league after the Andy Reid and Donovan McNabb era began in 1999 , making it to the playoffs for four straight seasons and to the NFC Championship Game in 2001 , 2002 , and 2003 . However , the team could not reach the Super Bowl , despite being favored in the final two NFC title games . In the offseason , this already championship - level team was reinforced on both sides of the ball by the free agent additions of wide receiver Terrell Owens , defensive end Jevon Kearse , and middle linebacker Jeremiah Trotter , their third round draft pick in 1998 . </P> <P> The Eagles had far and away the best team in the NFC and proved that right from the start . Possessing a high - powered offense which featured McNabb , Owens , and Brian Westbrook , as well as a bruising defense led by Pro Bowlers Trotter , Brian Dawkins , Lito Sheppard , and Michael Lewis , they steamrolled opponents on the way to a 13 -- 1 start to the season . After resting starters for the final two games , the 13 -- 3 Eagles soared past the Minnesota Vikings and the Atlanta Falcons in the playoffs , earning a trip to Super Bowl XXXIX in Jacksonville against the defending champion New England Patriots . The game was hard fought , but the Eagles fell 24 -- 21 , ending their magical season one score short of the ultimate goal . This season was considered the franchise 's most successful until their Super Bowl LII - winning 2017 season . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Staff </Li> <Li> 2 Schedule <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Regular season </Li> <Li> 2.2 Playoffs </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Regular season <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Week 1 : vs. New York Giants </Li> <Li> 3.2 Week 2 : vs. Minnesota Vikings </Li> <Li> 3.3 Week 3 : at Detroit Lions </Li> <Li> 3.4 Week 4 : at Chicago Bears </Li> <Li> 3.5 Week 6 : vs. Carolina Panthers </Li> <Li> 3.6 Week 7 : at Cleveland Browns </Li> <Li> 3.7 Week 8 : vs. Baltimore Ravens </Li> <Li> 3.8 Week 9 : at Pittsburgh Steelers </Li> <Li> 3.9 Week 10 : at Dallas Cowboys </Li> <Li> 3.10 Week 11 : vs. Washington Redskins </Li> <Li> 3.11 Week 12 : at New York Giants </Li> <Li> 3.12 Week 13 : vs. Green Bay Packers </Li> <Li> 3.13 Week 14 : at Washington Redskins </Li> <Li> 3.14 Week 15 : vs. Dallas Cowboys </Li> <Li> 3.15 Week 16 : at St. Louis Rams </Li> <Li> 3.16 Week 17 : vs. Cincinnati Bengals </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Standings </Li> <Li> 5 Playoffs <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Divisional Playoffs : vs. Minnesota Vikings </Li> <Li> 5.2 NFC Championship : vs. Atlanta Falcons </Li> <Li> 5.3 Super Bowl XXXIX : vs. New England Patriots </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 Final roster </Li> <Li> 7 References </Li> <Li> 8 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Staff ( edit ) </H2> <Table> <Tr> <Th colspan="7"> 2004 Philadelphia Eagles staff </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td colspan="7"> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> Front office <Ul> <Li> Chairman / Chief Executive Officer -- Jeffrey Lurie </Li> <Li> President -- Joe Banner </Li> <Li> Executive Vice President of Football Operations -- Andy Reid </Li> <Li> Vice President of Player Personnel -- Tom Heckert </Li> <Li> Assistant Director of Player Personnel -- Jason Licht </Li> <Li> Director of Pro Personnel -- Scott Cohen </Li> </Ul> <P> Head coaches </P> <Ul> <Li> Head Coach -- Andy Reid </Li> <Li> Assistant Head Coach / Offensive Coordinator -- Marty Mornhinweg </Li> <Li> Assistant to the Head Coach -- James Urban </Li> </Ul> <P> Offensive coaches </P> <Ul> <Li> Offensive Coordinator -- Brad Childress </Li> <Li> Quarterbacks -- Pat Shurmur </Li> <Li> Running Backs -- Ted Williams </Li> <Li> Wide Receivers -- David Culley </Li> <Li> Tight Ends -- Tom Melvin </Li> <Li> Offensive Line -- Juan Castillo </Li> <Li> Offensive Assistant / Quality Control -- Bill Shuey </Li> <Li> Statistical Analysis Coordinator -- Mike Frazier </Li> </Ul> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Defensive coaches <Ul> <Li> Defensive Coordinator -- Jim Johnson </Li> <Li> Defensive Line -- Tommy Brasher </Li> <Li> Linebackers -- Steve Spagnuolo </Li> <Li> Secondary -- Trent Walters </Li> <Li> Safeties -- Sean McDermott </Li> <Li> Defensive Assistant / Quality Control -- Mike Reed </Li> </Ul> <P> Special teams coaches </P> <Ul> <Li> Special Teams Coordinator -- John Harbaugh </Li> <Li> Special Teams Quality Control -- Ted Daisher </Li> </Ul> <P> Strength and conditioning </P> <Ul> <Li> Head Athletic Trainer -- Rick Burkholder </Li> <Li> Strength and Conditioning -- Mike Wolf </Li> <Li> Assistant Strength and Conditioning -- Tom Kanavy </Li> <Li> Assistant Trainer -- Eric Sugarman </Li> </Ul> </Td> </Tr> </Table> <H2> Schedule ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Regular season ( edit ) </H3> <Table> <Tr> <Th> Week </Th> <Th> Date </Th> <Th> Opponent </Th> <Th> Result </Th> <Th> Venue </Th> <Th> TV </Th> <Th> Attendance </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td>

( May 2011 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) </Td> </Tr> </Table> David Livingstone , early explorer of the interior of Africa and fighter against the slave trade <P> The Portuguese established the first firm post-Middle Ages European settlements , trade posts , permanent fortifications and ports of call along the coast of the African continent , from the beginning of the Age of Discovery during the 15th century . But Europeans showed comparatively little interest in ( and less knowledge of ) the interior for some two centuries thereafter . </P> <P> European exploration of the African interior began in earnest at the end of the 18th century . By 1835 , Europeans had mapped most of northwestern Africa . In the middle decades of the 19th century , famous European explorers included David Livingstone and H.M. Stanley , each of whom mapped vast areas of Southern Africa and Central Africa . Arduous expeditions in the 1850s and 1860s by Richard Burton , John Speke and James Grant located the great central lakes and the source of the Nile . By the end of the 19th century Europeans had charted the Nile from its source , traced the courses of the Niger , Congo and Zambezi Rivers , and realised the vast resources of Africa . </P> <P> Even as late as the 1870s , European states still controlled only ten percent of the African continent , with all their territories located near the coast . The most important holdings were Angola and Mozambique , held by Portugal ; the Cape Colony , held by the United Kingdom ; and Algeria , held by France . By 1914 , only Ethiopia and Liberia remained independent of European control . </P> <P> Technological advances facilitated European expansion overseas . Industrialisation brought about rapid advancements in transportation and communication , especially in the forms of steam navigation , railways and telegraphs . Medical advances also played an important role , especially medicines for tropical diseases . The development of quinine , an effective treatment for malaria , made vast expanses of the tropics more accessible for Europeans . </P> <H2> Causes ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Africa and global markets ( edit ) </H3> <P> Sub-Saharan Africa , one of the last regions of the world largely untouched by `` informal imperialism '' , was also attractive to Europe 's ruling elites for economic , political and social reasons . During a time when Britain 's balance of trade showed a growing deficit , with shrinking and increasingly protectionist continental markets due to the Long Depression ( 1873 -- 96 ) , Africa offered Britain , Germany , France , and other countries an open market that would garner them a trade surplus : a market that bought more from the colonial power than it sold overall . </P> <P> In addition , surplus capital was often more profitably invested overseas , where cheap materials , limited competition , and abundant raw materials made a greater premium possible . Another inducement for imperialism arose from the demand for raw materials unavailable in Europe , especially copper , cotton , rubber , palm oil , cocoa , diamonds , tea , and tin , to which European consumers had grown accustomed and upon which European industry had grown dependent . Additionally , Britain wanted the southern and eastern coasts of Africa for stopover ports on the route to Asia and its empire in India . </P> <P> However , in Africa -- excluding the area which became the Union of South Africa in 1910 -- the amount of capital investment by Europeans was relatively small , compared to other continents . Consequently , the companies involved in tropical African commerce were relatively small , apart from Cecil Rhodes 's De Beers Mining Company . Rhodes had carved out Rhodesia for himself ; Léopold II of Belgium later , and with considerable brutality , exploited the Congo Free State . These events might detract from the pro-imperialist arguments of colonial lobbyists such as the Alldeutscher Verband , Francesco Crispi and Jules Ferry , who argued that sheltered overseas markets in Africa would solve the problems of low prices and over-production caused by shrinking continental markets . </P> <P> John A. Hobson argued in Imperialism that this shrinking of continental markets was a key factor of the global `` New Imperialism '' period . </P> <P> William Easterly of New York University , however , disagrees with the link made between capitalism and imperialism , arguing that colonialism is used mostly to promote state - led development rather than `` corporate '' development . He has stated that `` imperialism is not so clearly linked to capitalism

recorded match was played on 1 January 1876 , against Cambria , a team based in Swansea . The result was a draw , but Llanelli were declared winners as they had grounded the ball defensively fewer times than their opponents . Their second match was against Swansea on 5 February 1876 , another draw , played at Felinfoel . </P> <P> During this early period the team played in blue shirts and blue caps at Peoples Park . Llanelli RFC moved to Stradey Park in 1879 , switching their colours to blue and white in the same year . The team switched their colours three more times before 1884 , adopting black , then rose before switching to red and chocolate quarters . </P> <H3> The Scarlets ( edit ) </H3> <P> In 1884 Llanelli played an Irish XV who stopped off in the town , having played Wales in Cardiff a couple of days previously . In this match the team played in scarlet shirts , and this has remained the club 's first colour ever since ; it also led to the club 's nickname `` The Scarlets '' and the name of the regional team ( Scarlets ) nearly 120 years later . Their first major trophies came in 1884 and 1886 with the South Wales Challenge Cup , the forerunner of the modern Welsh Cup . December 1888 saw the team beat a touring New Zealand Natives team by 3 -- 0 with a dropped goal from Harry Bowen . The team claimed their first full international scalp in 1908 when they beat Australia 8 -- 3 . This would be the first of many famous victories over touring international sides . Players that wore the Scarlet jersey in this pre-war era included Albert Jenkins , who scored over 121 tries for the club as a centre . </P> <P> After the war Lewis Jones was one of the stars of the game . He was capped by Wales aged just 18 in 1950 , and was instrumental in their Grand Slam win that year . However just two years later , he switched codes from the then amateur rugby union to the professional rugby league and signed for Leeds for a then record amount of £ 6,000 . </P> <P> Success was however not away from Stradey for long , a victory over Australia came in 1967 and the club was about to enter what many would argue was its strongest era . Players at Llanelli during the 1970s included Ray Gravell , Gareth Jenkins , Delme Thomas , Phil Bennett , and Derek Quinnell ; and the team was coached by Carwyn James and assisted by former captain and Wales international hooker Norman Gale . </P> <H3> The day the pubs ran dry ( edit ) </H3> <P> `` 9 -- 3 '' is a poem by Welsh comedian and singer Max Boyce and refers to the match between Llanelli and the New Zealand All Blacks at Stradey Park in front of 26,000 supporters on 31 October 1972 . Llanelli took a 6 -- 0 lead through a converted try but New Zealand struck back to make it 6 -- 3 . A long distance Andy Hill penalty ensured Llanelli emerged victors by 9 -- 3 and the crowd famously ran onto the pitch at the end and carried off players such as Delme Thomas . The poem is best known for the line `` The day the pubs ran dry '' , as huge celebrations followed and many pubs in the town sold out of all alcoholic drinks . </P> <H3> Cup success ( edit ) </H3> <P> The next notable period for Llanelli RFC was during the late 1980s and early 1990s . With players such as Ieuan Evans amongst the squad , Llanelli won the Welsh Cup five times in eight years between 1985 and 1993 including in consecutive seasons in 1991 , 1992 and 1993 . They achieved their most recent success against international opponents when they beat Australia , the world champions at the time , in 1992 . Rupert Moon was captain when they won the cup and league which earned Llanelli the title of Best Team in Britain for the 1992 -- 1993 season as well as the nickname `` Cup Kings of Wales '' due to their success in the Welsh Cup . The late 1990s and early years of the 21st century also produced many Welsh internationals including Rupert Moon , Ricky Evans , Wayne Proctor , Scott Quinnell and Stephen Jones . </P> <P> The side reached the semi-finals of the Heineken Cup three times : in 2000 against Northampton Saints who went on to win the trophy , in 2002 against Leicester Tigers and in 2007 against Leicester Tigers again . In the first match against Leicester , Llanelli appeared to be going to their first final as they led 12 -- 10 in injury time .

Andrus founded AARP in 1958 . AARP evolved from the National Retired Teachers Association ( NRTA ) , which Andrus had established in 1947 to promote her philosophy of productive aging , and to promote health insurance for retired teachers . After ten years , she opened the organization to all Americans over 50 , creating AARP . Today , the NRTA is a division within AARP . </P> <P> Critics of AARP offer an alternative version of the group 's origins . 60 Minutes reported in a 1978 exposé that AARP had been established as a marketing device by Leonard Davis , founder of the Colonial Penn Group insurance companies , after he met Ethel Percy Andrus . According to critics , until the 1980s AARP was controlled by Davis , who promoted its image as a non-profit advocate of retirees in order to sell insurance to members . Possibly as a result of this report , AARP conducted a competitive bidding process , and , in 1980 , shifted the insurance contracts available to members to Prudential Financial . </P> <P> In the 1990s , the United States Senate investigated AARP 's non-profit status , with Republican Senator Alan K. Simpson , then chairman of the United States Senate Finance Subcommittee on Social Security , Pensions , and Family Policy , questioning the organization 's tax - exempt status in congressional hearings . According to Charles Blahous , the investigations did not reveal sufficient evidence to change the organization 's status , though in an interview years later by the Des Moines Register , Senator Simpson remained `` troubled by AARP 's practices '' , calling AARP `` the biggest marketing operation in America and money - maker '' and an organization whose practices are `` the greatest abuse of American generosity I witnessed in my time in the U.S. Senate '' . </P> <P> The organization was originally named the American Association of Retired Persons , but in 1999 it officially changed its name to `` AARP '' ( pronounced one letter at a time , `` ay ay ar pee '' ) to reflect that its focus was no longer American retirees . AARP no longer requires that members be retired , but they must be at least age 50 ( although a membership includes free membership for a spouse or partner who may not yet be 50 ) . </P> <P> All people age 50 and older are eligible for full membership with AARP . For those under the age of 50 , AARP offers associate memberships that automatically convert to full membership at the age of 50th birthday . </P> <H2> Activities ( edit ) </H2> Former United States Secretary of Labor Perez at AARP 's Life@50 + event in 2015 . <H3> Overview ( edit ) </H3> <P> AARP addresses issues affecting older Americans through lobbying efforts at the state and national governmental level , an activity permitted by its 501 ( c ) ( 4 ) status . The organization says that it is non-partisan and does not support , oppose or give money to any candidates or political parties . The total revenue for 2006 was approximately $1 billion and it spent $23 million on lobbying . Middle - class security has been a major focus for the organization in recent years . AARP also provides extensive consumer information , volunteer opportunities , and events including the annual National Event & Expo ( 2013 in Las Vegas from May 30 -- June 1 and in Atlanta from October 3 -- 5 ) . </P> AARP volunteers packing food for older Americans in need at packing event in Miami . <P> AARP launched Life Reimagined in May 2013 , calling it a `` first - of - its - kind series of online and offline experiences that guide people through life transitions by helping them discover new possibilities and connect with a community of people pursuing similar passions and goals '' . USA Today called the iniative `` the latest step for the AARP ... as it continues to rebrand itself and become the go - to address for feeling good about aging . </P> <H2> Affiliates ( edit ) </H2> <P> AARP has several affiliated organizations including : </P> <Ul> <Li> AARP Foundation , a 501c3 non-profit charity that helps people over age 50 who are at social and economic risk ; It includes <Ul> <Li> AARP Experience Corps , a 501c3 non-profit charity that encourages people over age 50 to mentor and tutor school children ; </Li> <Li> AARP Institute , a non-profit charity that holds some of AARP 's charitable gift annuity funds ; </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> AARP Services Inc. , a for - profit corporation that provides quality control and research , </Li> <Li> Legal Counsel for the Elderly , a 501c3 non-profit charity that provides legal assistance to seniors in Washington , D.C. </Li> <Li> AARP Financial Services Corporation , a for - profit corporation that holds AARP 's real estate ; </Li> <Li> AARP Insurance Plan , an organization that holds some of AARP 's group health insurance policies ; </Li> </Ul> <P> Because of AARP 's vast membership , it is able to generate its own income without being dependent on government grants or private donors , though it receives both of these for specific programs . According to its 2015 Consolidated Financial Statement , the largest sources of income were : </P> <Ul> <Li> royalties for the rights to use AARP 's intellectual property ( name , logo , etc . ) paid by commercial providers of products , services and discounts for AARP members ( $838,649,000 ) ; </Li> <Li> membership dues ( $295,180,000 ) ; and </Li> <Li> advertisements placed in its publications ( $149,604,000 ) . </Li> </Ul> <H3> AARP services , Inc. and AARP Financial Incorporated ( edit ) </H3> <P> AARP Services , Inc. , founded in 1999 , is a wholly owned taxable subsidiary of AARP that manages the range of products and services offered as benefits to members .

Newsreel - wikipedia <H1> Newsreel </H1> Jump to : navigation , search Play media `` Showdown in Vietnam '' , a February 8 , 1965 war propaganda newsreel by Universal Newsreel . <P> A newsreel is a form of short documentary film , containing news stories and items of topical interest , that was prevalent between the 1910s and the late 1960s . Typically presented in a cinema , newsreels were a source of current affairs , information , and entertainment for millions of moviegoers . Newsreels were typically exhibited preceding a feature film , but there were also dedicated newsreel theaters in many major cities in the 1930s and ' 40s , and some large city cinemas also included a smaller theaterette where newsreels were screened continuously throughout the day . </P> <P> By the end of the 1960s , television news broadcasts had supplanted the format . Newsreels are considered significant historical documents , since they are often the only audiovisual record of certain cultural events . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History </Li> <Li> 2 Retrospectives </Li> <Li> 3 Effect of television </Li> <Li> 4 See also </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> <Li> 6 Further reading </Li> <Li> 7 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> News cameramen , Washington DC , 1938 <P> Created in 1911 by Charles Pathé , this form of film was a staple of the typical North American , British , and Commonwealth countries ( especially Canada , Australia , and New Zealand ) , and throughout European cinema programming schedule from the silent era until the 1960s when television news broadcasting completely supplanted its role . The National Film and Sound Archive in Australia holds the Cinesound Movietone Australian Newsreel Collection , a comprehensive collection of 4,000 newsreel films and documentaries representing news stories covering all major events . </P> <P> The first official British news cinema that only showed newsreels was the Daily Bioscope that opened in London on May 23 , 1909 . In 1929 , William Fox purchased a former Broadway theater called the Embassy ( now a visitor center operated by the Times Square Alliance ) . He changed the format from a $2 show twice a day to a continuous 25 - cent programme , establishing the first newsreel theater in the USA . The idea was such a success that Fox and his backers announced they would start a chain of newsreel theaters across the USA . The newsreels were often accompanied by cartoons or short subjects . </P> <P> In some countries , newsreels generally used music as a background for usually silent on - site film footage . In some countries , the narrator used humorous remarks for light - hearted or non-tragic stories . In the U.S. , newsreel series included The March of Time ( 1935 -- 1951 ) , Pathé News ( 1910 -- 1956 ) , Paramount News ( 1927 -- 1957 ) , Fox Movietone News ( 1928 -- 1963 ) , Hearst Metrotone News ( 1914 -- 1967 ) , and Universal Newsreel ( 1929 -- 1967 ) . Pathé News was distributed by RKO Radio Pictures from 1931 to 1947 , and then by Warner Brothers from 1947 to 1956 . </P> <P> An example of a newsreel story is in the film Citizen Kane ( 1941 ) , which was prepared by RKO 's actual newsreel staff . Citizen Kane includes a fictional newsreel `` News on the March '' that summarizes the life of title character Charles Foster Kane while parodying The March of Time . </P> <P> On August 12 , 1949 , 120 cinema technicians employed by Associated British Pathé in London went on strike to protest the dismissal of fifteen men on the grounds of redundancy while conciliation under trade union agreements was pending . Their strike lasted through to at least Tuesday August 16 , the Tuesday being the last day for production on new newsreels shown on the Thursday . Events of the strike resulted in over three hundred cinemas across Britain having to go without newsreels that week . </P> <H2> Retrospectives ( edit ) </H2> <P> A 1978 Australian film , Newsfront , is a drama about the newsreel business . </P> <H2> Effect of television ( edit ) </H2> <P> On February 16 , 1948 , NBC launched a ten - minute television program called Camel Newsreel Theatre with John Cameron Swayze that featured newsreels with Swayze doing voiceovers . Also in 1948 , the DuMont Television Network launched two short - lived newsreel series , Camera Headlines and I.N.S. Telenews , the latter in cooperation with Hearst 's International News Service . </P> <P> On August 15 , 1948 , CBS started their evening television news program Douglas Edwards and the News . Later the NBC , CBS , and ABC news shows all produced their own news film . Newsreel cinemas either closed or went to showing continuous programmes of cartoons and short subjects , such as the London Victoria Station News Cinema , later Cartoon Cinema that opened in 1933 and closed in 1981 . </P> <P> In New Zealand , the Weeky Review was `` the principal film series produced in the 1940s '' . The first television news broadcasts in the country , incorporating newsreel footage , began in 1960 . </P> <P> Newsreels died out because of technological advances such as electronic news - gathering for television news , introduced in the 1970s , rendered them obsolete . Nonetheless , some countries such as Cuba , Japan , Spain , and Italy continued producing newsreels into the 1980s and 1990s . Newsreel - producing companies excluded television companies from their distribution , but the television companies countered by sending their own cameramen to film news events . </P> <H2> See also ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> Film portal </Li> <Li> Journalism portal </Li> </Ul> <Ul> <Li> List of newsreels by country </Li> <Li> The March of Time newsreel series produced by

The American Patriots in the Thirteen Colonies won independence from Great Britain , becoming the United States of America . They defeated the British in the American Revolutionary War in alliance with France and others . </P> <P> Members of American colonial society argued the position of `` no taxation without representation '' , starting with the Stamp Act Congress in 1765 . They rejected the authority of the British Parliament to tax them because they lacked members in that governing body . Protests steadily escalated to the Boston Massacre in 1770 and the burning of the Gaspee in Rhode Island in 1772 , followed by the Boston Tea Party in December 1773 , during which Patriots destroyed a consignment of taxed tea . The British responded by closing Boston Harbor , then followed with a series of legislative acts which effectively rescinded Massachusetts Bay Colony 's rights of self - government and caused the other colonies to rally behind Massachusetts . In late 1774 , the Patriots set up their own alternative government to better coordinate their resistance efforts against Great Britain ; other colonists preferred to remain aligned to the Crown and were known as Loyalists or Tories . </P> <P> Tensions erupted into battle between Patriot militia and British regulars when the king 's army attempted to capture and destroy Colonial military supplies at Lexington and Concord on April 19 , 1775 . The conflict then developed into a global war , during which the Patriots ( and later their French , Spanish , and Dutch allies ) fought the British and Loyalists in what became known as the American Revolutionary War ( 1775 -- 83 ) . Each of the thirteen colonies formed a Provincial Congress that assumed power from the old colonial governments and suppressed Loyalism , and from there they built a Continental Army under the leadership of General George Washington . The Continental Congress determined King George 's rule to be tyrannical and infringing the colonists ' rights as Englishmen , and they declared the colonies free and independent states on July 2 , 1776 . The Patriot leadership professed the political philosophies of liberalism and republicanism to reject monarchy and aristocracy , and they proclaimed that all men are created equal . </P> <P> The Continental Army forced the redcoats out of Boston in March 1776 , but that summer the British captured and held New York City and its strategic harbor for the duration of the war . The Royal Navy blockaded ports and captured other cities for brief periods , but they failed to defeat Washington 's forces . The Patriots unsuccessfully attempted to invade Canada during the winter of 1775 -- 76 , but successfully captured a British army at the Battle of Saratoga in October 1777 . France now entered the war as an ally of the United States with a large army and navy that threatened Britain itself . The war turned to the American South where the British under the leadership of Charles Cornwallis

Uplift associated with mountain formation later moved these sediments thousands of feet upward and created the Colorado Plateau . The higher elevation has also resulted in greater precipitation in the Colorado River drainage area , but not enough to change the Grand Canyon area from being semi-arid . The uplift of the Colorado Plateau is uneven , and the Kaibab Plateau that Grand Canyon bisects is over a one thousand feet ( 300 m ) higher at the North Rim ( about 1,000 ft or 300 m ) than at the South Rim . Almost all runoff from the North Rim ( which also gets more rain and snow ) flows toward the Grand Canyon , while much of the runoff on the plateau behind the South Rim flows away from the canyon ( following the general tilt ) . The result is deeper and longer tributary washes and canyons on the north side and shorter and steeper side canyons on the south side . </P> <P> Temperatures on the North Rim are generally lower than those on the South Rim because of the greater elevation ( averaging 8,000 feet or 2,400 metres above sea level ) . Heavy rains are common on both rims during the summer months . Access to the North Rim via the primary route leading to the canyon ( State Route 67 ) is limited during the winter season due to road closures . </P> <H2> Geology </H2> Main article : Geology of the Grand Canyon area Diagram showing the placement , age and thickness of the rock units exposed in the Grand Canyon . Rockfalls in recent times , along with other mass wasting , have further widened the canyon . <P> The Grand Canyon is part of the Colorado River basin which has developed over the past 70 million years , in part based on apatite ( U-Th ) / He thermochronometry showing that Grand Canyon reached a depth near to the modern depth by 20 Ma . A recent study examining caves near Grand Canyon places their origins beginning about 17 million years ago . Previous estimates had placed the age of the canyon at 5 -- 6 million years . The study , which was published in the journal Science in 2008 , used uranium - lead dating to analyze calcite deposits found on the walls of nine caves throughout the canyon . There is a substantial amount of controversy because this research suggests such a substantial departure from prior widely supported scientific consensus . In December 2012 , a study published in the journal Science claimed new tests had suggested the Grand Canyon could be as old as 70 million years . However , this study has been criticized by those who support the `` young canyon '' age of around six million years as `` ( an ) attempt to push the interpretation of their new data to their limits without consideration of the whole range of other geologic data sets . '' </P> <P> The canyon is the result of erosion which exposes one of the most complete geologic columns on the planet . </P> <P> The major geologic exposures in the Grand Canyon range in age from the 2 - billion - year - old Vishnu Schist at the bottom of the Inner Gorge to the 230 - million - year - old Kaibab Limestone on the Rim . There is a gap of about a billion years between the 500 - million - year - old stratum and the level below it , which dates to about 1.5 billion years ago . This large unconformity indicates a long period for which no deposits are present . </P> <P> Many of the formations were deposited in warm shallow seas , near - shore environments ( such as beaches ) , and swamps as the seashore repeatedly advanced and retreated over the edge of a proto - North America . Major exceptions include the Permian Coconino Sandstone , which contains abundant geological evidence of aeolian sand dune deposition . Several parts of the Supai Group also were deposited in non -- marine environments . </P> <P> The great depth of the Grand Canyon and especially the height of its strata ( most of which formed below sea level ) can be attributed to 5 -- 10 thousand feet ( 1,500 to 3,000 m ) of uplift of the Colorado Plateau , starting about 65 million years ago ( during the Laramide Orogeny ) . This uplift has steepened the stream gradient of the Colorado River and its tributaries , which in turn has increased their speed and thus their ability to cut through rock ( see the elevation summary of the Colorado River for present conditions ) . </P> <P> Weather conditions during the ice ages also increased the amount of water in the Colorado River drainage system . The ancestral Colorado River responded by cutting its channel faster and deeper . </P> <P> The base level and course of the Colorado River ( or its ancestral equivalent ) changed 5.3 million years ago when the Gulf of California opened and lowered the river 's base level ( its lowest point ) . This increased the rate of erosion and cut nearly all of the Grand Canyon 's current depth by 1.2 million years ago .

It is mainly associated with retroviruses . However , non-retroviruses also use RT ( for example , the hepatitis B virus , a member of the Hepadnaviridae , which are dsDNA - RT viruses , while retroviruses are ssRNA viruses ) . RT inhibitors are widely used as antiretroviral drugs . RT activities are also associated with the replication of chromosome ends ( telomerase ) and some mobile genetic elements ( retrotransposons ) . </P> <P> Retroviral RT has three sequential biochemical activities : </P> <Ul> <Li> ( a ) RNA - dependent DNA polymerase activity , </Li> <Li> ( b ) ribonuclease H , and </Li> <Li> ( c ) DNA - dependent DNA polymerase activity . </Li> </Ul> <P> These activities are used by the retrovirus to convert single - stranded genomic RNA into double - stranded cDNA which can integrate into the host genome , potentially generating a long - term infection that can be very difficult to eradicate . The same sequence of reactions is widely used in the laboratory to convert RNA to DNA for use in molecular cloning , RNA sequencing , polymerase chain reaction ( PCR ) , or genome analysis . </P> <P> Well studied reverse transcriptases include : </P> <Ul> <Li> HIV - 1 reverse transcriptase from human immunodeficiency virus type 1 ( PDB : 1HMV ​ ) has two subunits , which have respective molecular weights of 66 and 51 kDa . </Li> <Li> M - MLV reverse transcriptase from the Moloney murine leukemia virus is a single 75 kDa monomer . </Li> <Li> AMV reverse transcriptase from the avian myeloblastosis virus also has two subunits , a 63 kDa subunit and a 95 kDa subunit . </Li> <Li> Telomerase reverse transcriptase that maintains the telomeres of eukaryotic chromosomes . </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History </Li> <Li> 2 Function in viruses <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Process of reverse transcription <Ul> <Li> 2.1. 1 Retroviral reverse transcription </Li> </Ul> </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 In eukaryotes </Li> <Li> 4 In prokaryotes </Li> <Li> 5 Evolutionary role </Li> <Li> 6 Structure </Li> <Li> 7 Replication fidelity </Li> <Li> 8 Applications <Ul> <Li> 8.1 Antiviral drugs </Li> <Li> 8.2 Molecular biology </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 9 See also </Li> <Li> 10 References </Li> <Li> 11 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <P> Reverse transcriptases were discovered by Howard Temin at the University of Wisconsin -- Madison in RSV virions and independently isolated by David Baltimore in 1970 at MIT from two RNA tumour viruses : R - MLV and again RSV . For their achievements , both shared the 1975 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine ( with Renato Dulbecco ) . </P> <P> The idea of reverse transcription was very unpopular at first , as it contradicted the central dogma of molecular biology , which states that DNA is transcribed into RNA , which is then translated into proteins .

</P> <P> In 2012 , former General Hospital executive producer Jill Farren Phelps was hired as the new executive producer of the soap , replacing Bell . Griffith was also named the sole head writer . On August 15 , 2013 , it was speculated and reported by several online sources that Griffith had resigned as head - writer of the serial . Further speculation adds that Shelly Altman may take over as the new scribe , alongside Tracey Thomson or Jean Passanante may be brought aboard as co-head scribe . On September 12 , 2013 , it was announced that Passanante and Altman were named head writers of the show , with Thomson promoted to co-head writer . </P> <P> On September 18 , 2014 , former All My Children , Santa Barbara and General Hospital head writer Charles Pratt , Jr. was named as the new head writer of the show . Passanante , Altman and Thomson have been demoted to breakdown writers . Pratt was also named as co-executive producer sharing the credit with Phelps . On June 7 , 2016 , Serial Scoop announced that Phelps had been terminated from her position as executive producer ; a replacement was not named at the time of their reporting . The following morning , Sony Pictures Television confirmed to several media outlets that Phelps had been let go from her position ; British television producer Mal Young was announced as Phelps ' replacement . Phelps ' last appearance as executive producer was July 12 , 2016 , while Young 's first appearance occurred the following day on July 13 . On September 13 , 2016 , it was announced that Pratt was named as executive producer and show - runner of Lee Daniels ' Star . The same day , Daytime Confidential revealed that former Generations and Days of Our Lives head writer Sally Sussman , who previously had positions with the show , such as Associate Head Writer , was in - talks to replace Pratt as Head Writer . On September 15 , 2016 , it was confirmed that Sussman was named as the soap 's new head writer . </P> <P> On September 21 , 2016 , Daytime Confidential reported that after ten years since leaving the soap , Alden had been re-hired to be a story consultant under Sussman 's regime . Sussman 's tenure as head writer began taping on October 20 , 2016 , and began airing on December 7 , 2016 . On June 20 , 2017 , CBS announced its decision to renew the serial for three years . On July 31 , 2017 , it was announced that both Alden and Sussman would retire from their positions ; Young was named as Sussman 's successor as head writer . Sussman last aired as head writer on October 24 , 2017 . Young 's tenure as head writer aired on October 25 , 2017 . </P> <H2> Production ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Videotaping and broadcasting ( edit ) </H3> <P> Taped at CBS Television City , studios 41 and 43 in Hollywood since its debut on March 26 , 1973 , the show was packaged by the distribution company Columbia Pictures Television , which has now been replaced by Sony Pictures Television . The Young and the Restless originally aired as a half - hour series on CBS and was the first soap opera to focus on the visual aspects of production , creating `` a look that broke with the visual conventions of the genre . '' Similar to the radio serials that had preceded them , soap operas at the time primarily focused on dialogue , characters , and story , with details like sets as secondary concerns . The Young and the Restless stood out by using unique lighting techniques and camera angles , similar to Hollywood - style productions . The style of videotaping included using out - of - the - ordinary camera angles and a large number of facial close - ups with bright lighting on the actors ' faces . Conboy said he used lighting to create `` artistic effects '' . Those effects made the series look dark , shadowy , and moody . The Young and the Restless ' look influenced the taping styles of other soap operas . When H. Wesley Kenney replaced Conboy as executive producer , he balanced the lighting of the scenes . </P> <P> Due to the success of the series , CBS and their affiliates pressured Bell to lengthen the series from 30 minutes to a full hour . Bell attributed this change to the show 's fall from number one in the Nielsen ratings , since the lengthening of the show led to the departure of a number of cast members . `` The issue of performing in a one - hour show had not been part of their contracts , '' Bell said . This forced the show to recast multiple main characters and eventually phase out the original core families in favor of new ones . The show expanded to one hour on February 4 , 1980 . It airs at 12 : 30pm ET / 11 : 00am CT / PT , although some stations opt to air it at 11 : 30am CT . </P> <P> Exteriors used in the late 1980s and early 1990s ( and reused years later ) included locations in and around Pittsburgh , Pennsylvania , including Allegheny General Hospital , One Oxford Centre , the Duquesne Club , Hampton Township and the prison . Phillip Chancellor died in the Richland , Pennsylvania area , where the police chief was not told and believed the accident really happened . </P> <P> On June 27 , 2001 , The Young and the Restless became the first daytime soap opera to be broadcast in high - definition . In September 2011 , its sister soap The Bold and the Beautiful became the last soap to make the transition from SD to HD before All My Children ended its ABC run on

It involved the vast majority of the world 's countries -- including all of the great powers -- eventually forming two opposing military alliances : the Allies and the Axis . It was the most widespread war in history , and directly involved more than 100 million people from over 30 countries . In a state of total war , the major participants threw their entire economic , industrial , and scientific capabilities behind the war effort , erasing the distinction between civilian and military resources . </P> <P> World War II was the deadliest conflict in human history , marked by 50 million to 85 million fatalities , most of which were civilians in the Soviet Union and China . It included massacres , the deliberate genocide of the Holocaust , strategic bombing , starvation , disease and the first use of nuclear weapons in history . </P> <P> The Empire of Japan aimed to dominate Asia and the Pacific and was already at war with the Republic of China in 1937 , but the world war is generally said to have begun on 1 September 1939 with the invasion of Poland by Nazi Germany and subsequent declarations of war on Germany by France and the United Kingdom . From late 1939 to early 1941 , in a series of campaigns and treaties , Germany conquered or controlled much of continental Europe , and formed the Axis alliance with Italy and Japan . Under the Molotov -- Ribbentrop Pact of August 1939 , Germany and the Soviet Union partitioned and annexed territories of their European neighbours , Poland , Finland , Romania and the Baltic states . The war continued primarily between the European Axis powers and the coalition of the United Kingdom and the British Commonwealth , with campaigns including the North Africa and East Africa campaigns , the aerial Battle of Britain , the Blitz bombing campaign , and the Balkan Campaign , as well as the long - running Battle of the Atlantic . On 22 June 1941 , the European Axis powers launched an invasion of the Soviet Union , opening the largest land theatre of war in history , which trapped the major part of the Axis military forces into a war of attrition . In December 1941 , Japan attacked the United States and European colonies in the Pacific Ocean , and quickly conquered much of the Western Pacific . </P> <P> The Axis advance halted in 1942 when Japan lost the critical Battle of Midway , and Germany and Italy were defeated in North Africa and then , decisively , at Stalingrad in the Soviet Union . In 1943 , with a series of German defeats on the Eastern Front , the Allied invasion of Sicily and the Allied invasion of Italy which brought about Italian surrender , and Allied victories in the Pacific , the Axis lost the initiative and undertook strategic retreat on all fronts . In 1944 , the Western Allies invaded German - occupied France , while the Soviet Union regained all of its territorial losses and invaded Germany and its allies . During 1944 and 1945 the Japanese suffered major reverses in mainland Asia in South Central China and Burma , while the Allies crippled the Japanese Navy and captured key Western Pacific islands . </P> <P> The war in Europe concluded with an invasion of Germany by the Western Allies and the Soviet Union , culminating in the capture of Berlin by Soviet troops , the suicide of Adolf Hitler and the subsequent German unconditional surrender on 8 May 1945 . Following the Potsdam Declaration by the Allies on 26 July 1945 and the refusal of Japan to surrender under its terms , the United States dropped atomic bombs on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki on 6 August and 9 August respectively . With an invasion of the Japanese archipelago imminent , the possibility of additional atomic bombings and the Soviet invasion of Manchuria , Japan formally surrendered on 2 September 1945 . Thus ended the war in Asia , cementing the total victory of the Allies . </P> <P> World War II changed the political alignment and social structure

West Wing from above . Note the Oval Office and the solar panels on the roof of the Cabinet Room . <P> Before construction of the West Wing , presidential staff worked on the second floor of what is now the Executive Residence . However , when Theodore Roosevelt became president , he found that the existing offices in the mansion were insufficient to accommodate his family of six children as well as his staff . </P> <P> In 1902 , First Lady Edith Roosevelt hired McKim , Meade & White to separate the living quarters from the offices , to enlarge and modernize the public rooms , to re-do the landscaping , and to redecorate the interior . Congress approved over half a million dollars for the renovation . </P> <P> The West Wing was originally intended as a temporary office structure , built on the site of the greenhouse and stables . The President 's Office and the Cabinet Room took up the eastern third of the building . Roosevelt 's office was located approximately where the Roosevelt Room is now . </P> <P> In 1909 , William Howard Taft expanded the building southward , covering the tennis court . He placed the first Oval Office at the center of the addition 's south facade , reminiscent of the oval rooms of the White House . Later , at the outset of his presidency , Herbert Hoover rebuilt the West Wing , excavating a partial basement , and supporting it with structural steel . The completed building lasted less than seven months . On December 24 , 1929 , the West Wing was significantly damaged by an electrical fire . Hoover rebuilt it , and added air - conditioning . </P> <P> The fourth and final major reorganization was undertaken by Franklin D. Roosevelt . Dissatisfied with the size and layout of the West Wing , he engaged New York architect Eric Gugler to redesign it in 1933 . To create additional space without increasing the apparent size of the building , Gugler excavated a full basement , added a set of subterranean offices under the adjacent lawn , and built an unobtrusive `` penthouse '' story . The directive to wring the most office space out of the existing building was responsible for its narrow corridors and cramped staff offices . Gugler 's most notable change was the addition to the east side containing a new Cabinet Room , Secretary 's Office , and Oval Office . The new office 's location gave presidents greater privacy , allowing them to slip back and forth between the White House and the West Wing without being in full view of the staff . </P> <P> As the size of the president 's staff grew over the latter half of the 20th century , the West Wing generally came to be seen as too small for its modern governmental functions . Today , most of the staff members of the Executive Office of the President are located in the adjacent Eisenhower Executive Office Building . </P> <Ul> <Li> <P> Original West Wing and tennis court , circa 1903 . </P> </Li> <Li> <P> Expanded West Wing , circa 1910s .

By tradition , a portrait of Franklin Roosevelt hangs over the mantel of the Roosevelt Room during the administration of a president from the Democratic Party and a portrait of Theodore Roosevelt hangs during the administration of a Republican president ( although Bill Clinton chose to retain the portrait of Theodore Roosevelt above the mantel ) .

'' She was a Polish religious sister of the Congregation of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy and canonized as a Catholic saint in 2000 . </P> <P> Faustina stated that she received the prayer through visions and conversations with Jesus , who made specific promises regarding the recitation of the prayers . Her Vatican biography quotes some of these conversations . </P> <P> As a Roman Catholic devotion , the chaplet is often said as a rosary - based prayer with the same set of rosary beads used for reciting the Rosary or the Chaplet of Holy Wounds . As an Anglican devotion , the Divine Mercy Society of the Anglican Church states that the chaplet can also be recited on Anglican prayer beads . The chaplet may also be said without beads , usually by counting prayers on the fingertips , and may be accompanied by the veneration of the Divine Mercy image . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History </Li> <Li> 2 Chaplet <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Prayers <Ul> <Li> 2.1. 1 First opening prayer </Li> <Li> 2.1. 2 Second opening prayer </Li> <Li> 2.1. 3 Eternal Father </Li> <Li> 2.1. 4 For the sake of His sorrowful Passion </Li> <Li> 2.1. 5 Holy God </Li> <Li> 2.1. 6 Closing prayer </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2.2 Structure </Li> <Li> 2.3 Novena </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 See also </Li> <Li> 4 Further reading </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> <Li> 6 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History </H2> Main articles : Divine Mercy and Mary Faustina Kowalska <P> On September 13 , 1935 , while Faustina was in Vilnius , she wrote of a vision of Jesus about the chaplet in her diary ( Notebook 1 item 476 ) . Faustina stated that Jesus asked her to pray the chaplet and instruct others to do so . Although the chaplet is said on beads like the Rosary , it is about a third of the length of the Rosary , and unlike the Rosary that has evolved over the years , the form and structure of the chaplet has remained unchanged since Faustina attributed it to a message from Jesus . </P> <P> According to Faustina 's visions , written in her diary , the chaplet 's prayers for mercy are threefold : to obtain mercy , to trust in Christ 's mercy , and to show mercy to others . Faustina wrote that Jesus promised that all who recite this chaplet at the hour of death or in the presence of the dying will receive great mercy . She wrote that Jesus said : </P> <P> `` ... When they say this Chaplet in the presence of the dying , I will stand between My Father and the dying not as the just judge but as the Merciful Savior . '' </P> <P> Faustina stated that Jesus also promised that anything can be obtained with this prayer if it is compatible with His will . In her diary Faustina recounted a vision on September 13 , 1935 in which she saw an angel sent to a city to destroy it . Faustina began to pray for God 's mercy on the city and felt the strong presence of the Holy Trinity . After she prayed the internally instructed prayers , the angel was powerless to harm the city . In subsequent visions , Faustina learned that the prayers she spoke were to be taught to all the people of the world . </P> <P> According to Roman Catholic tradition , the chaplet may be said at any time , but it is said especially on Divine Mercy Sunday and Fridays at 3 : 00 PM . The Chaplet is prayed daily at the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy in Stockbridge , Massachusetts . In the Philippines , Singapore , and Hong Kong the `` 3 o'clock Prayer '' is broadcast on radio and television stations daily at 3 : 00 p.m. In 2000 , Pope John Paul II ordained the Sunday after Easter Divine Mercy Sunday , where Roman Catholics remember the institution of the Sacrament of Penance . The hour Jesus died by crucifixion , 3 : 00 PM ( 15 : 00 ) , is called the Hour of Mercy . In a novena , the chaplet is usually said each of the nine days from Good Friday to Divine Mercy Sunday . </P> <P> Pope John Paul II was instrumental in the formal establishment of the Divine Mercy devotion and acknowledged the efforts of the Marian Fathers in its promotion in a Papal Blessing in 2001 , the 70th anniversary of the revelation of the Divine Mercy Message and Devotion . Although the prayers said on the beads of the rosary chain share specific similarities between the Chaplet of Divine Mercy and the Chaplet of Holy Wounds , these are distinct chaplets and were introduced over 20 years apart , one in Poland , the other in France . </P> <H2> Chaplet </H2> <H3> Prayers </H3> <P> The Chaplet contains several unique prayers . </P> First opening prayer <P> This prayer is optional , and may be used to begin the Chaplet : </P> <P> You expired , Jesus , but the source of life gushed forth for souls , and the ocean of mercy opened up for the whole world . O Fount of Life , unfathomable Divine Mercy , envelop the whole world and empty Yourself out upon us . </P> Second opening prayer <P> This prayer

towards either ejection or suspension . </P> <P> Backboard shattering has altered the game in many different ways . In 1967 , the dunk was banned in high school and college basketball . The rule - makers claimed the dunk was outlawed to prevent injury and equipment damage . After multiple issues with the new rule , nine years later they allowed the slam dunk to be legal again due to the invention of the breakaway rim . The NBA began using them after Darryl Dawkins shattered two backboards with his slam dunks during the 1979 -- 80 season . </P> <P> Throughout the history of basketball there have always been athletes with the size and strength to slam dunk the ball through the rim . However , the first NBA player to shatter a backboard , Chuck Connors ( who would become far more famous as an actor ) , did not do so with a dunk . When playing for the Boston Celtics in 1946 , Connors took a set shot during pregame warmups , hitting the front of the rim . Because an arena worker had failed to place a protective piece between the rim and backboard , the backboard shattered . All - star power forward Gus Johnson of the Baltimore Bullets became famous as a backboard breaker in the NBA , shattering three during his career in the 1960s and early 1970s . In the ABA , Charlie Hentz shattered two backboards in the same game on November 6 , 1970 , resulting in the game being cancelled . </P> <P> Darryl Dawkins became famous for shattering backboards , and is credited for being the one person to cause the NBA to introduce `` breakaway rims '' . Shaquille O'Neal slam dunked so hard that he broke the supports holding two backboards during games against the New Jersey Nets and the Phoenix Suns during the 1992 -- 93 NBA season . </P> <P> Chris Morris , a former NBA star with the New Jersey Nets , shattered a backboard during a game in 1993 ; Jerome Lane shattered a backboard during a game in 1988 while playing for the University of Pittsburgh ; Blue Edwards shattered a backboard during a Midnight Madness event while he was playing at East Carolina . Bryant Reeves shattered a backboard during team practice / warm - ups prior to their 1995 NCAA tourney game against UCLA . Following the 1992 -- 93 season the NBA increased steel brace strength and increased stability of the backboard to prevent the hoop from falling down after Shaquille O'Neal broke two goal standards the previous season ( although the glass remained intact , welds in the goal standard failed ) . The aforementioned technical foul was also introduced at the time . During the NCAA tournament in 1996 , Darvin Ham shattered a backboard while playing for Texas Tech against North Carolina . Robert Traylor , while playing for the Michigan Wolverines , shattered a backboard against the Ball State Cardinals in 1996 . In 2012 , during a preseason exhibition game held in Sassari , Italy , Olympiacos starter and former NBA player Joey Dorsey ended up breaking the glass of a backboard against Dinamo Sassari . </P> <H2> References ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> ^ Jump up to : Shattering Backboards .

the ball during a game against Highland Park High School to score a rushing touchdown worth six points . Vince Young of the Texas Longhorns ( ball carrier in top center ) rushing for a touchdown . A portion of the end zone is seen as the dark strip at the bottom . The vertical yellow bar is part of the goal post . <P> A touchdown is a means of scoring in both American and Canadian football . Whether running , passing , returning a kickoff or punt , or recovering a turnover , a team scores a touchdown by advancing the ball into the opponent 's end zone . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Description </Li> <Li> 2 History </Li> <Li> 3 See also </Li> <Li> 4 References </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Description ( edit ) </H2> <P> To score a touchdown , one team must take the football into the opposite end zone . The touchdown is scored the instant the ball crosses the plane of the goal line ( that is , if any part of the ball is in the space on , above , or across the goal line ) while in possession of a player whose team is trying to score in that end zone . The play is dead and the touchdown scores the moment the ball crosses the goal line in possession of a player , or the moment the ball comes into possession of an offensive player in the end zone ( having established possession by controlling the ball and having both feet or another part of the body , excluding the hands , touch the ground ) . The slightest part of the ball being over the goal line is sufficient for a touchdown to score . However , only the ball counts , not a player 's helmet , foot , or any other part of the body . Touching one of the pylons at either end of the goal line with the ball constitutes `` breaking the plane '' as well . </P> <P> Touchdowns are usually scored by the offense by running or passing the ball . However , the defense can also score a touchdown if they have recovered a fumble or made an interception and return it to the opposing end zone . Special teams can score a touchdown on a kickoff or punt return , or on a return after a missed or blocked field goal attempt or blocked punt . In short , any play in which a player legally carries the ball across the goal line scores a touchdown , and the manner in which he gained possession is inconsequential . In the NFL , a touchdown may be awarded by the referee as a penalty for a `` palpably unfair act , '' such as a player coming off the bench during a play and tackling the runner , who would otherwise have scored . </P> A touchdown celebration <P> A touchdown is worth six points . The scoring team is also awarded the opportunity for an extra point or a two - point conversion . Afterwards , the team that scored the touchdown kicks off to the opposing team , if there is any time left . </P> <P> Unlike a try scored in rugby , and contrary to the event 's name , the ball does not need to touch the ground when the player and the ball are inside the end zone , although in gridiron 's early days the ball was required to be touched to the ground as in rugby , as rugby and gridiron were extremely similar sports at this point . This rule was changed to the modern - day iteration in 1889 . </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <P> When the first uniform rules for American football were enacted by the newly formed Intercollegiate Football Association following the 1876 Rugby season , a touchdown counted for ​ ⁄ of a kicked goal ( except in the case of a tie ) and allowed the offense the chance to kick for goal by placekick or dropkick from a spot along a line perpendicular to the goal line and passing through the point where the ball was touched down , or through a process known as a `` punt - out '' , where the attacking team would kick the ball from the point where it was touched down to a teammate . If the teammate could fair catch the ball , he could follow with a try for goal from the spot of the catch , or resume play as normal ( in an attempt to touch down the ball in a spot more advantageous for kicking ) . The governing rule at the time read : `` A match shall be decided by a majority of touchdowns . A goal shall be equal to four touchdowns ; but in case of a tie a goal kicked from a touchdown shall take precedence over four touchdowns . '' </P> <Ul> <Li> In 1881 , the rules were modified so that a goal kicked from a touchdown took precedence over a goal kicked from the field in breaking ties . </Li> <Li> In 1882 , four touchdowns were determined to take precedence over a goal kicked from the field . Two safeties were equivalent to a touchdown . </Li> <Li> In 1883 , points were introduced to football , and a touchdown counted as four points . A goal after a touchdown also counted as four points . </Li> <Li> In 1889 , the provision requiring the ball to actually be touched to the ground was removed . A touchdown was now scored by possessing the ball beyond the goal line . </Li> <Li> In 1897 , the touchdown scored five points , and the goal after touchdown added another point . </Li> <Li> In 1900 , the definition of touchdown was changed to include situations where the ball becomes dead on or above the goal line .

It 's a new rite because use the red liturgical colour by Palm Sunday . <P> The term Latin Mass refers to the liturgy of the Roman Catholic Mass celebrated in Latin . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Tridentine Mass in Latin </Li> <Li> 2 Present Roman - Rite Mass in Latin </Li> <Li> 3 Other forms of Mass in Latin </Li> <Li> 4 Other uses </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Tridentine Mass in Latin ( edit ) </H2> <P> The term `` Latin Mass '' is frequently used to denote the Tridentine Mass , that is , the Roman - Rite liturgy of the Mass celebrated in Latin and in accordance with the successive editions of the Roman Missal published between 1570 and 1962 . </P> <P> In most countries , the Tridentine Mass was celebrated only in Latin . However , there are exceptions . In early seventeenth - century China , Jesuit missionaries secured permission from Pope Paul V to celebrate the Catholic Mass in Chinese , as part and parcel of the Jesuits ' general effort to adapt their work to the local Chinese cultural norms and conditions . In Dalmatia and parts of Istria , the liturgy was celebrated in Church Slavonic , and authorization for use of this language was extended to some other Slavic regions between 1886 and 1935 . There , `` Tridentine Mass '' was not synonymous with `` Latin Mass '' . </P> <P> A further distancing between the concepts of `` Tridentine Mass '' and `` Latin Mass '' was brought about by the 1964 Instruction on implementing the Constitution on Sacred Liturgy of the Second Vatican Council , which laid down that `` normally the epistle and gospel from the Mass of the day shall be read in the vernacular '' . Episcopal conferences were to decide , with the consent of the Holy See , what other parts , if any , of the Mass were to be celebrated in the vernacular . Permissions were thus granted from 1967 onwards to celebrate most of the Tridentine Mass in vernacular languages , including the Canon . </P> <H2> Present Roman - Rite Mass in Latin ( edit ) </H2> <P> Neither the Second Vatican Council nor the subsequent revision of the Roman Missal abolished Latin as the liturgical language of the Roman Rite : the official text of the Roman Missal , on which translations into vernacular languages are to be based , continues to be in Latin , and Latin can still be used in the celebration . The term `` Latin Mass '' is sometimes applied to such celebrations , which in some places are part of the normal Sunday schedule . </P> <H2> Other forms of Mass in Latin ( edit ) </H2> <P> Historically speaking , `` Latin Mass '' can be applied also to the various forms of Pre-Tridentine Mass from about the year 190 of Pope Victor , when the Church in Rome changed from Greek to Latin . </P> <P> Latin liturgical rites other than the Roman Rite have used Latin , and in some cases continue to do so . These include the Ambrosian Rite and the Mozarabic Rite . Some priests and communities continue to use non-Roman - Rite liturgies that have been generally abandoned , such as the Carmelite Rite and the Dominican Rite , celebrating them in Latin . Celebration in Latin of such rites is sometimes referred to as `` Latin Mass '' . </P> <H2> Other uses ( edit ) </H2> <P> A Traditionalist Catholic periodical in the United States is entitled The Latin Mass , the Journal of Catholic Culture and Tradition . </P> <P> Various editions of the Anglican Book of Common Prayer have been translated into Latin : for example , for use in the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge ( Liber Precum Publicarum of Walther Haddon , 1560 ) . The Church of the Advent of Christ the King , an Anglo - Catholic parish in San Francisco , regularly celebrates Mass according to the 1979 Prayer Book of its province , the Episcopal Church , in Latin . </P> <H2> References ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> Jump up ^ Hsia , Ronnie Po - Chia ( 1998 ) .

Through the late 1920s , he acted as a Comintern agent to help build Communist movements in Southeast Asia . During the 1930s , the CPV was nearly wiped out under French suppression with the execution of top leaders such as Phú , Lê Hồng Phong , and Nguyễn Văn Cừ . </P> <P> During World War II , Japan invaded Indochina in 1940 , keeping the Vichy French colonial administration in place as a puppet . In 1941 Nguyễn Ái Quốc , now known as Hồ Chí Minh , arrived in northern Vietnam to form the Việt Minh Front , and it was supposed to be an umbrella group for all parties fighting for Vietnam 's independence , but was dominated by the Communist Party . The Việt Minh had a modest armed force and during the war worked with the American Office of Strategic Services to collect intelligence on the Japanese . A famine broke out in 1944 -- 45 . Japan 's defeat by World War II Allies created a power vacuum for Vietnamese nationalists of all parties to seize power in August 1945 , forcing Emperor Bảo Đại to abdicate and ending the Nguyễn dynasty . Their initial success in staging uprisings and in seizing control of most of the country by September 1945 was partially undone , however , by the return of the French a few months later . </P> <H2> Republican period ( from 1945 ) ( edit ) </H2> Main articles : National Assembly ( Vietnam ) , History of Vietnam since 1945 , and 1940 - 1946 in the Vietnam War <H3> Communist north & capitalist South ( 1945 -- 76 ) ( edit ) </H3> Main articles : Democratic Republic of Vietnam , State of Vietnam , Republic of Vietnam , War in Vietnam ( 1945 -- 1946 ) , First Indochina War , and Vietnam War Vietcong prisoners await being carried by helicopter to rear area after Operation Starlite . August 18 -- 24 , 1965 <P> In September 1945 , Hồ Chí Minh proclaimed the Democratic Republic of Vietnam ( DRV ) and held the position of chairman ( Chủ Tịch ) . Communist rule was cut short , however , by nationalist Chinese and British occupation forces whose presence tended to support the Communist Party 's political opponents . In 1946 , Vietnam had its first National Assembly election ( won by the Viet Minh in central and northern Vietnam ) , which drafted the first constitution , but the situation was still precarious : the French tried to regain power by force ; some Cochinchinese politicians formed a seceding government the Republic of Cochinchina ( Cộng hòa Nam Kỳ ) while the non-Communist and Communist forces were engaging each other in sporadic battle . Stalinists purged Trotskyists . Religious sects and resistance groups formed their own militias . The Communists eventually suppressed all non-Communist parties but failed to secure a peace deal with France . </P> <P> Full - scale war broke out between the Việt Minh and France in late 1946 and the First Indochina War officially began . Realizing that colonialism was coming to an end worldwide , France decided to bring former emperor Bảo Đại back to power , as a political alternative to Ho Chi Minh . A Provisional Central Government was formed in 1948 , reuniting Annam and Tonkin , but the complete reunification of Vietnam was delayed for a year because of the problems posed by Cochinchina 's legal status . In July 1949 , the State of Vietnam was officially proclaimed , as a semi-independent country within the French Union , with Bảo Đại as Head of State . France was finally persuaded to relinquish its colonies in Indochina in 1954 when Viet Minh forces defeated the French at Dien Bien Phu . The 1954 Geneva Conference left Vietnam a divided nation , with Hồ Chí Minh 's communist DRV government ruling the North from Hanoi and Ngô Đình Diệm 's Republic of Vietnam , supported by the United States , ruling the South from Saigon . Between 1953 and 1956 , the North Vietnamese government instituted various agrarian reforms , including `` rent reduction '' and `` land reform '' , which resulted in significant political oppression . During the land reform , testimony from North Vietnamese witnesses suggested a ratio of one execution for every 160 village residents , which extrapolated nationwide would indicate nearly 100,000 executions . Because the campaign was concentrated mainly in the Red River Delta area , a lower estimate of 50,000 executions became widely accepted by scholars at the time . However , declassified documents from the Vietnamese and Hungarian archives indicate that the number of executions was much lower than reported at the time , although likely greater than 13,500 . In the South , Diem went about crushing political and religious opposition , imprisoning or killing tens of thousands . </P> <P> Along with the split between northern and southern Vietnam in geographical territory came the divergence in their distinctive choices for institutional political structure . Northern Vietnam ( Dai Viet ) opted for a centralized bureaucratic regime while the southern is based on a patron - client mechanism heavily relied on personalized rule . During this period , due to this structural difference , the north and south revealed different patterns in their economic activities , the long - term effect of which still persist up to today . Citizens that have previously lived in the bureaucratic state are more likely to have higher household consumption and get more engaged in civic activities ; and the state itself tends to have stronger fiscal capacity for taxation inherited from the previous institution . </P> <P> As a result of the Vietnam ( Second Indochina ) War ( 1954 -- 75 ) , Viet Cong and regular People 's Army of Vietnam ( PAVN ) forces of the DRV unified the country under communist rule . In this conflict , the North and the Viet Cong -- with logistical support from the Soviet Union --

Table setting - wikipedia <H1> Table setting </H1> Jump to : navigation , search <P> Table setting ( laying a table ) or place setting refers to the way to set a table with tableware -- such as eating utensils and for serving and eating . The arrangement for a single diner is called a place setting . The practice of dictating the precise arrangement of tableware has varied across cultures and historical periods . </P> A table setting may have many elements , especially on formal occasions ; the long utensil is a lobster pick . <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Place setting <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Informal </Li> <Li> 1.2 Formal <Ul> <Li> 1.2. 1 Formal dinner </Li> </Ul> </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Gallery </Li> <Li> 3 See also </Li> <Li> 4 References </Li> <Li> 5 Further reading </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Place setting ( edit ) </H2> <P> Informal settings generally have fewer utensils and dishes but use a layout based on more formal settings . Utensils are arranged in the order and according to the manner in which the diner will use them . In the West , forks , plate , butter knife , and napkin generally are placed to the left of the dinner plate , and knives , spoons , stemware and tumblers , cups , and saucers to the right . ( By contrast , formal settings in Armenia place the fork to the right of the dinner plate and informal settings in Turkey place the fork to the right of the dinner plate if not accompanied by a knife ) Sauceboats and serving dishes , when used , either are placed on the table or , more formally , may be kept on a side table . </P> <H3> Informal ( edit ) </H3> Informal setting with pancakes in a California mountain cabin . <P> At an informal setting , fewer utensils are used and serving dishes are placed on the table . Sometimes the cup and saucer are placed on the right side of the spoon , about 30cm or 12 inches from the edge of the table . Often , in less formal settings , the napkin should be in the wine glass . However , such objects as napkin rings are very rare in the United Kingdom , Spain , Mexico , or Italy . </P> <H3> Formal ( edit ) </H3> A formal table setting for one person . <P> Utensils are placed inward about 20cm or 8 inches from the edge of the table , with all placed either upon the same invisible baseline or upon the same invisible median line . Utensils in the outermost position are to be used first ( for example , a soup spoon or a salad fork , later the dinner fork and the dinner knife ) . The blades of the knives are turned toward the plate . Glasses are placed an inch ( 2.5 cm ) or so above the knives , also in the order of use : white wine , red wine , dessert wine , and water tumbler . </P> Formal dinner ( edit ) <P> The most formal dinner is served from the kitchen . When the meal is served , in addition to the central plate ( a service plate or dinner plate at supper ; at luncheon , a service plate or luncheon plate ) at each place there are a bread roll ( generally on a bread plate , sometimes in the napkin ) , napkin , and flatware ( knives and spoons to the right of the central plate , and forks to the left ) . Coffee is served in Butler Service style in demitasses , and a spoon placed on the saucer to the right of each handle . Serving dishes and utensils are not placed on the table for a formal dinner . The only exception in the West to these general rules is the protocol followed at the Spanish royal court , which was also adopted by the Austrian court , in which all cutlery was placed to the right of the central plate for each diner . </P> <P> At a less formal dinner , not served from the kitchen , the dessert fork and spoon can be set above the plate , fork pointing right , spoon pointing left . </P> <H2> Gallery ( edit ) </H2> <Table> <Tr> <Th> Formal dining </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Formal Place Setting for 8 Course Dinner </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Appetizer Course </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Soup Course </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Fish Course </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Entrée Course </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Palate Cleanser </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Main ( Releve ) Course </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Salad Course </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Fingerbowl Before Dessert </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Dessert Place Setting Before Dessert </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Dessert Course </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Coffee / Tea Course </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Tea Service </Td> </Tr> </Table> </Td> </Tr> </Table> <H2> See also ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> Flatware ( cutlery ) </Li> <Li> Haft - Sin , traditional table setting of Nowruz , the traditional Iranian spring celebration . </Li> <Li> List of glassware </Li> <Li> Napkin folding </Li> <Li> Silver service , a method of table service in the United Kingdom </Li> <Li> Tableware </Li> </Ul> <H2> References ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> Jump up ^ Vanderbilt , Amy ( 1958 ) .

Despite his relative popularity at school , easy friendships with other players and smart and sassy girlfriend Jules Harbor ( Amy Smart ) , he is dissatisfied with his life . He wants to leave Texas to go to school at Brown University . He is constantly at odds with his football - obsessed father , Sam ( Thomas F. Duffy ) , and dreads playing it under legendary coach Bud Kilmer ( Jon Voight ) , a verbally abusive , controlling authoritarian who believes in winning at all costs . He has a strong track record as coach : in 30 years of coaching at West Canaan , he has won two state titles and 22 district championships , and only cares about winning his 23rd . His philosophy finally takes its toll on all - state starting quarterback , Lance Harbor ( Paul Walker ) , Mox 's best friend and Jules 's brother , who has earned a football scholarship to play for Florida State . He is manipulated by Kilmer into taking anesthetic shots on an injured knee that finally succumbs to failure and results in even greater injury after getting sacked during a game . He is rushed to the hospital , where doctors are appalled at the massive amount of scar tissue found under his knee and determine that the effects of the injury are permanent and will prevent him from being able to play football for a year and a half , costing him his FSU scholarship . </P> <P> Mox , who has accompanied Lance to the hospital , is shocked when Kilmer feigns ignorance to Lance 's doctors about his knee problems , when in fact Kilmer ordered the trainer to inject the shots . In need of a new quarterback , he reluctantly names Mox to replace Lance as captain and starting quarterback . The move brings unexpected dividends for him , one of them being Darcy Sears ( Ali Larter ) , Lance 's cheerleader girlfriend , who is interested in marrying a football player in order to escape small - town life . She even goes so far as to attempt to seduce Mox , sporting a `` bikini '' made of whipped cream over her otherwise naked body , but he rebuffs her as politely as he can and helps to cheer her up by telling her that she can get out of West Canaan on her own without anyone 's help . </P> <P> Disgusted with Kilmer and not feeling a strong need to win , Mox starts calling his own plays on the field without Kilmer 's approval and takes his group of friends and teammates , including Lance , out to a strip club on the night before a game , which they subsequently lose due to poor play from still being hungover . He also chides his father , Sam , screaming at him , `` I do n't want your life ! '' Sam had been a football player at West Canaan under Kilmer and although Kilmer dismissed him as having no talent nor courage , he still respected and obeyed him . When Kilmer becomes aware that Mox has earned a full academic scholarship to Brown , he threatens him that if he continues to disobey and disrespect him , he will alter his transcripts in order to reverse the decision on his scholarship . </P> <P> Kilmer 's lack of concern for his

This 1900s Victorian house was featured prominently in the 1974 film The Texas Chain Saw Massacre as the home of Leatherface and his cannibalistic family , before it was moved to this location from Williamson County in 1998 .

The house was a `` pattern book '' house , ordered from a catalog and assembled on site from a package of materials brought by wagon from a local lumber company .

The house originally set across the street from the Chainsaw house , on Quick Hill Road . But it was later moved to another location within La Frontera and was not originally recognized as a twin because of the dilapidated condition of the house and it being completely overgrown with plants and trees . It was moved in 2006 and restored by the developers of La Frontera , Don Martin and Bill Smalling ( 1953 -- 2008 ) . It sits on San Gabriel Village Blvd prominently overlooking the South San Gabriel River and is used as an office . </P> <H3> Film sets ( edit ) </H3> <P> Replicas of the original house were built as sets for Texas Chainsaw 3D and the 2017 prequel Leatherface . </P> <H2> Other homes appearing in Texas Chainsaw films ( edit ) </H2> <P> The Hewitt House is a privately owned , six bedroom working farm house .

An animation of Earth 's rotation around the planet 's axis This long - exposure photo of the northern night sky over the Nepali Himalayas shows the apparent paths of the stars as Earth rotates . <P> Earth 's rotation is the rotation of Planet Earth around its own axis . Earth rotates eastward , in prograde motion . As viewed from the north pole star Polaris , Earth turns counter clockwise . </P> <P> The North Pole , also known as the Geographic North Pole or Terrestrial North Pole , is the point in the Northern Hemisphere where Earth 's axis of rotation meets its surface . This point is distinct from Earth 's North Magnetic Pole . The South Pole is the other point where Earth 's axis of rotation intersects its surface , in Antarctica . </P> <P> Earth rotates once in about 24 hours with respect to the Sun , but once every 23 hours , 56 minutes , and 4 seconds with respect to the stars ( see below ) . Earth 's rotation is slowing slightly with time ; thus , a day was shorter in the past . This is due to the tidal effects the Moon has on Earth 's rotation . Atomic clocks show that a modern day is longer by about 1.7 milliseconds than a century ago , slowly increasing the rate at which UTC is adjusted by leap seconds . Analysis of historical astronomical records shows a slowing trend of 2.3 milliseconds per century since the 8th century BC E . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Empirical tests </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Rotation period <Ul> <Li> 2.1 True solar day </Li> <Li> 2.2 Mean solar day </Li> <Li> 2.3 Stellar and sidereal day </Li> <Li> 2.4 Angular speed </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Changes in rotation <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Change in rotational axis </Li> <Li> 3.2 Change in rotational velocity <Ul> <Li> 3.2. 1 Tidal interactions </Li> <Li> 3.2. 2 Resonant stabilization </Li> <Li> 3.2. 3 Global events </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3.3 Measurement </Li> <Li> 3.4 Ancient observations </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Origin </Li> <Li> 5 See also </Li> <Li> 6 Notes </Li> <Li> 7 References </Li> <Li> 8 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <P> Among the ancient Greeks , several of the Pythagorean school believed in the rotation of the earth rather than the apparent diurnal rotation of the heavens . Perhaps the first was Philolaus ( 470 -- 385 BCE ) , though his system was complicated , including a counter-earth rotating daily about a central fire . </P> <P> A more conventional picture was that supported by Hicetas , Heraclides and Ecphantus in the fourth century BCE who assumed that the earth rotated but did not suggest that the earth revolved about the sun . In the third century BCE , Aristarchus of Samos suggested the sun 's central place . </P> <P> However , Aristotle in the fourth century BCE criticized the ideas of Philolaus as being based on theory rather than observation . He established the idea of a sphere of fixed stars that rotated about the earth . This was accepted by most of those who came after , in particular Claudius Ptolemy ( 2nd century CE ) , who thought the earth would be devastated by gales if it rotated . </P> <P> In 499 CE , the Indian astronomer Aryabhata wrote that the spherical earth rotates about its axis daily , and that the apparent movement of the stars is a relative motion caused by the rotation of the Earth . He provided the following analogy : `` Just as a man in a boat going in one direction sees the stationary things on the bank as moving in the opposite direction , in the same way to a man at Lanka the fixed stars appear to be going westward . '' </P> <P> In the 10th century , some Muslim astronomers accepted that the Earth rotates around its axis . According to al - Biruni , Abu Sa'id al - Sijzi ( d. circa 1020 ) invented an astrolabe called al - zūraqī based on the idea believed by some of his contemporaries `` that the motion we see is due to the Earth 's movement and not to that of the sky . '' The prevalence of this view is further confirmed by a reference from the 13th century which states : `` According to the geometers ( or engineers ) ( muhandisīn ) , the earth is in constant circular motion , and what appears to be the motion of the heavens is actually due to the motion of the earth and not the stars . '' Treatises were written to discuss its possibility , either as refutations or expressing doubts about Ptolemy 's arguments against it . At the Maragha and Samarkand observatories , the Earth 's rotation was discussed by Tusi ( b . 1201 ) and Qushji ( b . 1403 ) ; the arguments and evidence they used resemble those used by Copernicus . </P> <P> In medieval Europe , Thomas Aquinas accepted Aristotle 's view and so , reluctantly , did John Buridan and Nicole Oresme in the fourteenth century . Not until Nicolaus Copernicus in 1543 adopted a heliocentric world system did the contemporary understanding of earth 's rotation begin to be established . Copernicus pointed out that if the movement of the earth is violent , then the movement of the stars must be very much more so . He acknowledged the contribution of the Pythagoreans and pointed to examples of relative motion . For Copernicus this was the first step in establishing the simpler pattern of planets circling a central sun . </P> <P> Tycho Brahe , who produced accurate observations on which Kepler

Waste Management began its sponsorship in 2010 . </P> <P> The event 's relaxed atmosphere , raucous by the standards of professional golf , has earned it the nickname `` The Greatest Show on Grass '' and made it one of the most popular events on the PGA Tour calendar . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History </Li> <Li> 2 Popularity </Li> <Li> 3 Conflicts with the Super Bowl </Li> <Li> 4 Records -- scoring and victories </Li> <Li> 5 Winners </Li> <Li> 6 Multiple winners </Li> <Li> 7 References </Li> <Li> 8 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <P> The Phoenix Open began 85 years ago in 1932 but was discontinued after the 1935 tournament . The rebirth of the Phoenix Open came in 1939 when Bob Goldwater , Sr. convinced fellow Thunderbirds to help run the event . The Thunderbirds , a prominent civic organization in Phoenix , were not as enthusiastic about running the event as he was , leaving Goldwater , Sr. to do most of the work in getting a golf open started . </P> <P> The event was played at the Phoenix Country Club in Phoenix ( 33 ° 28 ′ 55 '' N 112 ° 03 ′ 47 '' W  /  33.482 ° N 112.063 ° W  / 33.482 ; - 112.063 ) , both in its earlier incarnations and after Goldwater resuscitated it . Beginning in 1955 , the Arizona Country Club ( also in Phoenix ) ( 33 ° 29 ′ 06 '' N 111 ° 57 ′ 32 '' W  /  33.485 ° N 111.959 ° W  / 33.485 ; - 111.959 ) , alternated as event host with Phoenix Country Club ; this arrangement lasted until Phoenix Country Club took The Arizona Country Club 's turn in 1975 and became the event 's permanent home again . </P> <P> The tournament moved 31 years ago in 1987 to its current home , the Stadium Course at TPC Scottsdale , northeast of downtown Phoenix . The approximate average elevation of the course is 1,530 feet ( 465 m ) above sea level . </P> <H2> Popularity ( edit ) </H2> <P> The four - day attendance of the tournament is usually around a half million ; the best - attended event in golf . In 2016 , it set a PGA Tour and Phoenix Open single day attendance record with 201,003 fans in attendance on Saturday , February 6 and set a tournament week attendance record of 618,365 fans . </P> <P> The most popular location for spectators is the par - 3 16th hole , nicknamed `` The Coliseum . '' ( 33 ° 38 ′ 15 '' N 111 ° 54 ′ 48 '' W  /  33.6375 ° N 111.9132 ° W  / 33.6375 ; - 111.9132 ) One of the shortest holes on tour at 162 yards ( 148 m ) , it is enclosed by a temporary 20,000 - seat grandstand . The hole could be described as `` one big party , '' with many students from the nearby Arizona State University in Tempe in attendance . Poor shots at the 16th hole receive boos , because the hole is very easy by the PGA 's standards . Good shots , however , are cheered loudly . Famous moments include Tiger Woods ' Saturday hole - in - one in 1997 , which caused the gallery to erupt , throwing cups and other objects in celebration , and Justin Leonard giving the finger to the gallery after a poor shot . Jarrod Lyle aced the hole on Saturday in 2011 , causing the stands to erupt in excitement . After 2013 , the PGA Tour banned the practice of caddies racing the 150 yards ( 140 m ) from the tee box to the green , citing injury concerns . </P> <P> The most

An Australian syndicate representing the Royal Perth Yacht Club fielded the Australia II , skippered by John Bertrand , against defender Liberty , skippered by Dennis Conner .

The boat was designed by Ben Lexcen and skippered by John Bertrand . The revolutionary `` winged keel '' of the Australian yacht was a subject of controversy from the outset of the challenger series , with the New York Yacht club alleging that the winged keel boat was not a legal 12 Meter , and that the keel design itself was the result of Dutch engineers , and not by Lexcen . This second point would have made Australia II illegal under the requirement that the boat be `` designed and constructed in country '' as the Deed of Gift that governed the competition stipulated . The boat was ruled a legal 12 Meter , and she was allowed to participate in the regatta . The speed of the new contender , along with the controversy and protests intensified international media attention to the series . </P> <P> Australia II dominated the challenger series and entered the America 's Cup finals as the most promising contender to date . </P> <H2> The races ( edit ) </H2> <P> The U.S. yacht won the first and second races by margins of more than a minute when the Australian yacht suffered equipment failure , but the Australia II took the third race , and came back to win the fifth and sixth races after Liberty won the fourth .

The tensions between colonial countries in Europe , indigenous peoples , and escaped slaves shaped South America from the 16th through the 19th centuries . With the revolution for independence from the Spanish crown achieved during the 19th century , South America underwent yet more social and political changes . These have included nation building projects , absorbing waves of immigration from Europe in the late 19th and 20th centuries , dealing with increased international trade , colonization of hinterlands , and wars about territory ownership and power balance . During this period there has also been reorganization of Indian rights and duties , subjugation of Indians living in the states ' frontiers , that lasted until the early 1900s ; liberal - conservative conflicts among the ruling classes , and major demographic and environmental changes accompanying development of sensitive habitats . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Prehistory </Li> <Li> 2 Pre-Columbian era <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Agriculture and domestication of animals </Li> <Li> 2.2 Human activity <Ul> <Li> 2.2. 1 Norte Chico </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2.3 Cañari </Li> <Li> 2.4 Chibchan Nations <Ul> <Li> 2.4. 1 Muisca </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2.5 Amazon </Li> <Li> 2.6 Andean civilizations <Ul> <Li> 2.6. 1 Chavín </Li> <Li> 2.6. 2 Moche </Li> <Li> 2.6. 3 Tiwanaku </Li> <Li> 2.6. 4 Inca </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2.7 Arawac and Carib civilizations </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 European colonization </Li> <Li> 4 17th and 18th centuries </Li> <Li> 5 Independence and 19th century </Li> <Li> 6 20th century <Ul> <Li> 6.1 1900 -- 1920 </Li> <Li> 6.2 1930 -- 1960 </Li> <Li> 6.3 Economics </Li> <Li> 6.4 Cold War </Li> <Li> 6.5 Late 20th century military regimes and revolutions </Li> <Li> 6.6 Washington Consensus </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 7 21st century <Ul> <Li> 7.1 A turn to the left </Li> <Li> 7.2 Pink tide </Li> <Li> 7.3 Politics </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 8 See also </Li> <Li> 9 Notes </Li> <Li> 10 References <Ul> <Li> 10.1 Historiography </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 11 Bibliography <Ul> <Li> 11.1 Prehistory </Li> <Li> 11.2 Muisca </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 12 Further reading </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Prehistory ( edit ) </H2> Aerial view of the Amazon rainforest , near Manaus Main article : Pre-Columbian South America Paleogeography of northern South America around 105 Ma <P> In the Paleozoic and Early Mesozoic eras , South America and Africa were connected in a landmass called Gondwana , as part of the supercontinent Pangaea . In the Albian , around 110 Ma , South America and Africa began to diverge along the southern Mid-Atlantic Ridge , giving rise to a landmass of Antarctica and South America . During the late Eocene , around 35 Ma , Antarctica and South America separated and South America became a massive , biologically rich island - continent . During approximately 30 million years , the biodiversity of South America was isolated from the rest of the world , leading to evolution of species within the continent . </P> <P> In the last million years since the Late Miocene , South America became connected with the continent of North America via the Panama Block that closed the marine Bolivar Trough , leading to the Great American Interchange , the interchange of biota from both continents . The first species discovered to have made the northward migration was Pliometanastes , a fossil ground sloth species , roughly the size of a modern black bear . Several migrations to the Southern Hemisphere were undertaken by tougher , North American mammal carnivores ; fewer species migrated in the opposite direction from south to north . The result of the intrusion of North American fauna was that hundreds of South American species became extinct in a relatively short time and that about 60 % of present - day South American mammals have evolved from North American species . However , some species were able to adapt and spread into North America . Apart from Pliometanastes , during the Irvingtonian stage of the mammal land stages , around 1.9 Ma , species as Pampatherium , a giant armadillo , ground sloth Megatherium , giant anteater Myrmecophaga , a Neogene capybara ( Hydrochoerus ) , Meizonyx , opossum Didelphis , and Mixotoxodon followed the route north . The terror bird Titanis was the only discovered South American carnivore species who made the journey into North America . </P> <H2> Pre-Columbian era ( edit ) </H2> Main article : Pre-Columbian South America <H3> Agriculture and domestication of animals ( edit ) </H3> <P> The Americas are thought to have been first inhabited by people from eastern Asia who crossed the Bering Land Bridge to present - day Alaska ; the land separated and the continents are divided by the Bering Strait . Over the course of millennia , three waves of migrants spread to all parts of the Americas . Genetic and linguistic evidence has shown that the last wave of migrant peoples settled across the northern tier , and did not reach South America . </P> <P> The first evidence for the existence of agricultural practices in South America dates back to circa 6500 BCE , when potatoes , chilies and beans began to be cultivated for food in the Amazon Basin . Pottery evidence suggests that manioc , which remains a staple foodstuff today , was being cultivated as early as 2000 BCE . </P> <P> South American cultures began domesticating llamas and alpacas in the highlands of the Andes circa 3500 BCE . These animals were used for both transportation and meat ; their fur was shorn or collected to use to make clothing . Guinea pigs were also domesticated as a food source at this time . </P> <P> By 2000 BCE , many agrarian village communities had developed throughout the Andes and the surrounding regions . Fishing became a widespread practice along the coast , with fish being the primary source of food for those communities . Irrigation systems were also developed at this time , which aided in the rise of agrarian societies

The stories are fables , using animals in an anthropomorphic manner to give moral lessons . A principal character is the boy or `` man - cub '' Mowgli , who is raised in the jungle by wolves . Other characters include Shere Khan the tiger and Baloo the bear .

The original publications contain illustrations , some by the author 's father , John Lockwood Kipling . Rudyard Kipling was born in India and spent the first six years of his childhood there . After about ten years in England , he went back to India and worked there for about six - and - a-half years . These stories were written when Kipling lived in Naulakha , the home he built in Dummerston , Vermont , in the United States . There is evidence that Kipling wrote the collection of stories for his daughter Josephine , who died from pneumonia in 1899 , aged 6 ; a rare first edition of the book with a handwritten note by the author to his young daughter was discovered at the National Trust 's Wimpole Hall in Cambridgeshire , England , in 2010 . </P> <H2> Book </H2> <H3> Description </H3> <P> The tales in the book ( as well as those in The Second Jungle Book , which followed in 1895 and includes five further stories about Mowgli ) are fables , using animals in an anthropomorphic manner to teach moral lessons . The verses of `` The Law of the Jungle '' , for example , lay down rules for the safety of individuals , families , and communities . Kipling put in them nearly everything he knew or `` heard or dreamed about the Indian jungle '' . Other readers have interpreted the work as allegories of the politics and society of the time . </P> <H3> Origins </H3> <P> A letter written and signed by Rudyard Kipling in 1895 was put up for auction in 2013 by Andrusier . In this letter , Kipling confesses to borrowing ideas and stories in the Jungle Book : `` I am afraid that all that code in its outlines has been manufactured to meet ' the necessities of the case ' : though a little of it is bodily taken from ( Southern ) Esquimaux rules for the division of spoils , '' Kipling wrote in the letter . `` In fact , it is extremely possible that I have helped myself promiscuously but at present can not remember from whose stories I have stolen .

Carina MacKenzie of the Los Angeles Times noted that he spent `` 10 years as a successful but under - the - radar TV actor '' but shortly after the show premiered , he was `` everywhere '' . MacKenzie wrote : `` Last summer his face was on more than 30 `` Vampire Diaries '' posters at the Century City / Westfield mall alone , not to mention billboards over seemingly every major boulevard in Hollywood `` .

heart - shaped herb . Perception , which also did the main on - end title sequence that referenced the vibranium sand effect that ILM and other companies contributed through the film , also helped create Shuri 's laboratory and the interface designs for the displays . </P> <P> Method Studios created much of the digital natural environments of Wakanda . Method built a 3,600 square kilometers ( 1,400 sq mi ) landscape that is visible in various aerial shots in the film . VFX Supervisor Andy Brown said , `` Looking out from the top of Mount Bashenga , you can see the rich diversity of African landscapes -- it looks lush and jungle - like in one direction , and more like the plains and savannah in the other , so we had multiple ecosystems to tackle , but it really drives home the vastness of these shots . '' Method was also responsible for creating Black Panther 's and Killmonger 's digital suits , and many of the film 's digital characters , vehicles , and weapons . They also worked on the final battle sequence , including crowd simulation . Method worked with the stunt coordinators in their motion capture sessions to give each Dora Milaje or Jabari fighter their unique fighting style . Brown noted that `` In addition to randomizing the height , weight , and other characteristics of each fighter to add variance to the crowd , we had to incorporate more specific elements such as unique face tattoos for each Dora Milaje fighter and the signature hairstyles of the Jabari warriors . '' Method also worked on the vibranium mine , animating the gadgets in Shuri 's laboratory . </P> <P> Luma Pictures worked on the Busan car chase sequence , digitally creating the Lexus cars featured in the sequence . Multiple digital versions of the same car were created , so the production could have the actual cars crash and do various stunts with them , with Luma then inserting the digital versions to augment them . Luma also created the sonic forces from Klaue 's cannon , while Scanline VFX worked on digitally removing Serkis ' left arm for the sonic cannon and the London museum heist sequence . </P> <H2> Music </H2> Main article : Black Panther ( soundtrack ) <P> Ludwig Göransson was hired to compose the film 's score by April 2017 . Göransson traveled to Senegal and South Africa to record local musicians to form the `` base '' of his soundtrack . Kendrick Lamar produced the film 's curated soundtrack , Black Panther : The Album , along with Top Dawg Entertainment founder Anthony Tiffith . Coogler chose Lamar for the project because his `` artistic themes align with those we explore in the film '' . Three singles from the album were released throughout January and February 2018 : `` All the Stars '' , `` King 's Dead '' , and `` Pray for Me '' . Black Panther : The Album was released on February 9 , 2018 , while a soundtrack of Göransson 's score was released on February 16 , 2018 . </P> <H2> Release </H2> <P> Black Panther had its world premiere at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on January 29 , 2018 . The premiere featured a purple carpet that was flanked by women dressed as the Dora Milaje , and was lit by futuristic lamps . Coogler , the cast members , and other guests wore African clothing , to honor the African roots of the film , at the request of Marvel for attendees to wear `` royal attire '' . Ahead of the screening at the premiere , Coogler received an extended standing ovation before he announced the cast of the film . Black Panther was released in the United Kingdom , Hong Kong , and Taiwan on February 13 , 2018 , in South Korea on February 14 , 2018 , and the United States on February 16 , 2018 . In the United States , the film opened in 4,020 theaters , with over 3,200 of those in 3D , 404 in IMAX , over 660 in premium large format , and over 200 D - Box locations . In addition , Black Panther was the first MCU film to be converted to ScreenX , a 270 - degree wraparound format , that played in over 101 locations in eight countries . The film opened in most of its markets in its first weekend of release and had a `` cross-nation release '' in Africa , a first for a Disney film . It was originally scheduled to be released on November 3 , 2017 , before moving in February 2015 to July 6 , 2018 to accommodate Spider - Man : Homecoming . In October 2015 , it moved again to accommodate Ant - Man and the Wasp . </P> <P> Black Panther premiered in Riyadh , Saudi Arabia on April 18 , 2018 . The occasion marks the first public film screening since movie theaters were banned in the kingdom in the early 1980 's , after ultraconservative religious standards were introduced in 1979 . The ban was lifted in December 2017 by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman as part of an effort to revamp Saudi society . The film premiered in a newly constructed 620 leather seat cinema , owned by AMC Theatres , in Riyadh 's King Abdullah Financial District that was originally intended to be a symphony hall . Disney 's regional distributor Italia Film revealed that 40 seconds of the film had been removed , which was in line with cuts made to the film across the region . Awwad Alawwad , Saudi Arabia 's Minister of Culture and Information , and Adam Aron , CEO of AMC Entertainment , were in attendance for the premiere along with other diplomats and industry experts ; no one from the cast or production team was in attendance . The premiere also had men and women sitting together , a representation of the

Moloch - wikipedia <H1> Moloch </H1> Jump to : navigation , search For other uses , see Moloch ( disambiguation ) . 18th - century depiction of the Moloch idol ( Der Götze Moloch mit 7 Räumen oder Capellen . `` The idol Moloch with seven chambers or chapels '' ) , from Johann Lund 's Die Alten Jüdischen Heiligthümer ( 1711 , 1738 ) . <P> Moloch is the biblical name of a Canaanite god associated with child sacrifice . The name of this deity is also sometimes spelled Molech , Milcom , or Malcam . </P> <P> The name Moloch results from a dysphemic vocalisation in the Second Temple period of a theonym based on the root mlk `` king '' . There are a number of Canaanite gods with names based on this root , which became summarily associated with Moloch , including Biblical מַלְכָּם ‎ Malkam `` great king '' ( KJV Milcom ) , which appears to refer to a god of the Ammonites , as well as Tyrian Melqart and others . </P> <P> Rabbinical tradition depicted Moloch as a bronze statue heated with fire into which the victims were thrown . This has been associated with reports by Greco - Roman authors on the child sacrifices in Carthage to Baal Hammon , especially since archaeological excavations since the 1920s have produced evidence for child sacrifice in Carthage as well as inscriptions including the term MLK , either a theonym or a technical term associated with sacrifice . In interpretatio graeca , the Phoenician god was identified with Cronus , due to the parallel mytheme of Cronus devouring his children . </P> <P> Otto Eissfeldt in 1935 argued that mlk was not to be taken as a theonym at all but as a term for a type of fire sacrifice , and that * lĕmōlek `` as a molk - sacrifice '' had been reinterpreted as the name of a Canaanite idol following the Deuteronomic reform under Josiah ( r . 640 -- 609 BC ) . According to Eissfeldt , this 7th - century reform abolished the child sacrifice that had been happening . </P> <P> Moloch has been used figuratively in English literature from John Milton 's Paradise Lost ( 1667 ) to Allen Ginsberg 's `` Howl '' ( 1955 ) , to refer to a person or thing demanding or requiring a very costly sacrifice . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Name </Li> <Li> 2 Biblical texts <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Masoretic Molek </Li> <Li> 2.2 LXX Μολοχ ( Moloch , Molech ) </Li> <Li> 2.3 Malkam ( Milcom ) </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Carthaginian Cronus </Li> <Li> 4 Rabbinical commentary </Li> <Li> 5 Modern interpretations </Li> <Li> 6 Moloch in art and culture <Ul> <Li> 6.1 Depictions of Canaanite Moloch <Ul> <Li> 6.1. 1 Milton 's Paradise Lost </Li> <Li> 6.1. 2 Flaubert 's Salammbô </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6.2 As social or political allegory </Li> <Li> 6.3 References in fantastical fiction and pop culture </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 7 See also </Li> <Li> 8 Notes </Li> <Li> 9 References </Li> <Li> 10 Bibliography </Li> <Li> 11 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Name ( edit ) </H2> Babylonian cylinder seal representing child sacrifice <P> Biblical Hebrew מלך ( mlk ) usually stands for מֶלֶךְ ‎ melek `` king '' ( Akkadian malku ) but when vocalized as מֹלֶךְ ‎ mōlek in the Masoretic text , it has been traditionally understood as a proper name . While the received Masoretic text is medieval , the existence of the form Μολοχ ( Molokh , whence Vulgate Moloch ) in the Septuagint establishes that the distinction dates to the Second Temple period . </P> <P> Moloch has been traditionally interpreted as the name of a god , possibly a god surnamed `` the king '' ( cf . adon `` lord '' , baʿal `` master '' ) , but pejoratively mispronounced as Molek instead of Melek using the vocalisation of Hebrew בּשֶׁת ‎ bosheth `` shame '' , distinguishing it from the title of melek `` king '' , written identically in the consonantal text , which is also frequently given to Yahweh . </P> <P> Thus , in Psalm 5 : 2 , the מלךי mlk - y ( `` my mlk '' ) of the Hebrew text is vocalized מַלְכִּי malk - ī and translated ὁ βασιλεύς μου ( `` my king '' ) in the Septuagint ; by contrast , in Amos 5 : 26 , מלככם mlk - km ( `` your ( plural ) mlk '' ) is vocalized מַלְכְּכֶם malk - chem ( `` your king '' ) but translated Μολοχ ὑμῶν ( `` your Moloch '' ) in the Septuagint . </P> <P> The name of the god of the Ammonites is also given as מַלְכָּם malkam ( `` great king '' ) , ) rendered as Milcom in KJV . In 1 Kings 11 : 7 , לְמֹלֶךְ שִׁקֻּץ בְּנֵי עַמֹּֽון ‎ ( KJV : `` for Molech , the abomination of the children of Ammon '' ) , the Septuagint has τῷ βασιλεῖ αὐτῶν εἰδώλῳ υἱῶν Αμμων ( `` for their king , idol of the sons of Ammon '' ) , while in 1 Kings 11 : 33 לְמִלְכֹּם אֱלֹהֵי בְנֵֽי ־ עַמֹּון ‎ ( KJV : `` Milcom the god of the children of Ammon '' ) is translated τῷ βασιλεῖ αὐτῶν προσοχθίσματι υἱῶν Αμμων ( `` for their king , the abomination of the sons of Ammon '' ) . </P> <H2> Biblical texts ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Masoretic Molek ( edit ) </H3> Offering to Molech ( illustration from the 1897 Bible Pictures and What They Teach Us by Charles Foster ) <P> The vocalization Molek occurs eight times in the Masoretic Text , predominantly ( five times ) in Leviticus : </P> <Ul> <Li> Leviticus 18 : 21 `` And thou shalt not let any of thy seed pass through the fire to Molech , neither shalt thou profane the name

He played piano to accompany cabaret singers but also wrote songs with Cole Porter , his idol , in mind . In response to a publisher 's request for a simpler song , Bart Howard wrote a cabaret ballad in waltz time which he titled `` In Other Words '' . A publisher tried to make him change some lyrics from `` fly me to the moon '' to `` take me to the moon '' but Howard refused to do this . Many years later Howard commented that `` ... it took me 20 years to find out how to write a song in 20 minutes '' . </P> <P> He used his position as a piano accompanist and presenter at the Blue Angel cabaret venue to promote the song , and it was soon introduced in cabaret performances by Felicia Sanders . </P> <H2> Early recordings ( edit ) </H2> Kaye Ballard circa late 1950s <P> Kaye Ballard made the first commercial recording of `` In Other Words '' . It was released by Decca in April 1954 . A brief review published on 8 May 1954 in Billboard said that `` In Other Words '' was `` A love song sung with feeling by Miss Ballard . '' This recording was released as the flipside of `` Lazy Afternoon '' which Kaye Ballard was currently performing as star of the stage show The Golden Apple . </P> <P> Over the next few years , jazz and cabaret singers released cover versions of `` In Other Words '' on EP or LP record albums , including Chris Connor , Johnny Mathis , Portia Nelson and Nancy Wilson . Eydie Gormé featured the song on her 1958 album Eydie In Love , which reached # 20 in the Cashbox Album Charts and was nominated for a Grammy Award . </P> <H2> `` Fly Me to the Moon '' ( edit ) </H2> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> This section needs additional citations for verification .

Parsons formed Planet24 with Bob Geldof to produce the show and tried to have the BBC broadcast it , but the network turned it down . Parsons went to Swedish television and was able to find a broadcaster , ultimately producing Expedition Robinson in 1997 . The show was a success , and plans for international versions were made . </P> <P> Mark Burnett intended to be the person to bring the show to the United States , though he recognized that the Swedish version was a bit crude and mean - spirited . Burnett retooled the concept to use better production values , based on his prior Eco-Challenge show , and wanted to focus more on the human drama experienced while under pressure . Burnett spent about a year trying to find a broadcaster that would take the show , retooling the concept based on feedback . On November 24 , 1999 , Burnett made his pitch to Les Moonves of CBS , and Moonves agreed to pick up the show . The first season , Survivor : Borneo was filmed during March and April 2000 , and was first broadcast on May 31 , 2000 . The first season became a ratings success , leading to its current ongoing run . </P> <H3> Locations ( edit ) </H3> <P> The American version of Survivor has been shot in many locations around the world since the first season , usually favoring warm and tropical climates . Though locations varied across the globe in the first dozen seasons , more recent seasons have used the same general location for back - to - back filming of two cycles ( for example , the use of Samoa for filming of seasons 19 , 20 ) . </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th> Continent / Region </Th> <Th> Locations ( season number ) </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Africa ( 2 ) </Td> <Td> Kenya ( 3 ) , Gabon (

The Chesapeake was captured in a brief but intense action in which over 80 men were killed . This was the only frigate action of the war in which there was no preponderance of force on either side . </P> <P> At Boston , Captain James Lawrence took command of Chesapeake on 20 May 1813 , and on 1 June , put to sea to meet the waiting HMS Shannon , commanded by Captain Philip Broke , the frigate whose written challenge had just missed Chesapeake 's sailing . Chesapeake suffered early in the exchange of gunfire , having her wheel and fore topsail halyard shot away , rendering her unmanoeuvrable . Lawrence himself was mortally wounded and was carried below . The American crew , struggled to carry out their captain 's last order , `` Do n't give up the ship ! '' , but the British boarding party overwhelmed them . The battle was notably intense but of short duration , lasting ten to fifteen minutes , in which time 252 men were killed or wounded . Shannon 's captain was severely injured in fighting on the forecastle . Chesapeake and her crew were taken to Halifax , Nova Scotia , where the sailors were imprisoned ; the ship was repaired and taken into service by the Royal Navy . She was sold at Portsmouth , England in 1819 and broken up . Surviving timbers were used to build the nearby Chesapeake Mill in Wickham and can be seen and visited to this day . Shannon survived longer , being broken up in 1859 . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Prelude <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Philip Broke and his naval gunnery </Li> <Li> 1.2 James Lawrence </Li> <Li> 1.3 Issuing a challenge </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Battle <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Gunnery duel </Li> <Li> 2.2 The British board </Li> <Li> 2.3 Chesapeake is taken </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Aftermath </Li> <Li> 4 In Fiction </Li> <Li> 5 Notes </Li> <Li> 6 References </Li> <Li> 7 Bibliography </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Prelude ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Philip Broke and his naval gunnery ( edit ) </H3> Captain Philip Broke <P> During his long period in command of Shannon , Captain Philip Broke of the Royal Navy introduced many practical refinements to his ' great guns ' , which were virtually unheard of elsewhere in contemporary naval gunnery .

particles , which induced an uncharged radiation . When this radiation struck paraffin wax , protons were ejected . The protons were observed using a small ionization chamber . Adapted from Chadwick ( 1932 ) . <P> Two years later Irène Joliot - Curie and Frédéric Joliot in Paris showed that if this unknown radiation fell on paraffin wax , or any other hydrogen - containing compound , it ejected protons of very high energy ( 5 MeV ) . This observation was not in itself inconsistent with the assumed gamma ray nature of the new radiation , but that interpretation ( Compton scattering ) had a logical problem . From energy and momentum considerations , a gamma ray would have to have impossibly high energy ( 50 MeV ) to scatter a massive proton . In Rome , the young physicist Ettore Majorana declared that the manner in which the new radiation interacted with protons required a new neutral particle . </P> <P> On hearing of the Paris results , neither Rutherford nor James Chadwick at the Cavendish Laboratory believed the gamma ray hypothesis . Assisted by Norman Feather , Chadwick quickly performed a series of experiments showing that the gamma ray hypothesis was untenable . The previous year , Chadwick , J.E.R. Constable , and E.C. Pollard had already conducted experiments on disintegrating light elements using alpha radiation from polonium . They had also developed more accurate and efficient methods for detecting , counting , and recording the ejected protons . Chadwick repeated the creation of the radiation using beryllium and aimed the radiation at paraffin following the Paris experiment . Paraffin wax is a hydrocarbon high in hydrogen content , hence offers a target dense with protons ; since neutrons and protons have almost equal mass , protons scatter energetically from neutrons . Chadwick measured the range of these protons , and also measured how the new radiation impacted the atoms of various gases . He found that the new radiation consisted of not gamma rays , but uncharged particles with about the same mass as the proton . These particles were neutrons . Chadwick won the Nobel Prize in Physics for this discovery in 1935 . </P> <P> The year 1932 was later referred to as the `` annus mirabilis '' for nuclear physics in the Cavendish Laboratory , with discoveries of the neutron , artificial nuclear disintegration by the Cockcroft -- Walton particle accelerator , and the positron . </P> <H2> Proton -- neutron model of the nucleus ( edit ) </H2> Models depicting the nucleus and electron energy levels in hydrogen , helium , lithium , and neon atoms . In reality , the diameter of the nucleus is about 100,000 times smaller than the diameter of the atom . <P> Given the problems of the proton -- electron model , it was quickly accepted that the atomic nucleus is composed of protons and neutrons , although the precise nature of the neutron was initially unclear . Within months after the discovery of the neutron , Werner Heisenberg and Dmitri Ivanenko had proposed proton -- neutron models for the nucleus . Heisenberg 's landmark papers approached the description of protons and neutrons in the nucleus through quantum mechanics . While Heisenberg 's theory for protons and neutrons in the nucleus was a `` major step toward understanding the nucleus as a quantum mechanical system , '' he still assumed the presence of nuclear electrons . In particular , Heisenberg assumed the neutron was a proton -- electron composite , for which there is no quantum mechanical explanation . Heisenberg had no explanation for how lightweight electrons could be bound within the nucleus . Heisenberg introduced the first theory of nuclear exchange forces that bind the nucleons . He considered protons and neutrons to be different quantum states of the same particle , i.e. , nucleons distinguished by the value of their nuclear isospin quantum numbers . </P> <P> The proton -- neutron model explained the puzzle of dinitrogen . When N was proposed to consist of 3 pairs each of protons and neutrons , with an additional unpaired neutron and proton each contributing a spin of ​ ⁄ ħ in the same direction for a total spin of 1 ħ , the model became viable . Soon , neutrons were used to naturally explain spin differences in many different nuclides in the same way . </P> <P> If the proton -- neutron model for the nucleus resolved many issues , it highlighted the problem of explaining the origins of beta radiation . No existing theory could account for how electrons , or positrons , could emanate from the nucleus . In 1934 , Enrico Fermi published his classic paper describing the process of beta decay , in which the neutron decays to a proton by creating an electron and a ( as yet undiscovered ) neutrino . The paper employed the analogy that photons , or electromagnetic radiation , were similarly created and destroyed in atomic processes . Ivanenko had suggested a similar analogy in 1932 . Fermi 's theory requires the neutron to be a spin - 1⁄2 particle . The theory preserved the principle of conservation of energy , which had been thrown into question by the continuous energy distribution of beta particles . The basic theory for beta decay proposed by Fermi was the first to show how particles could be created and destroyed . It established a general , basic theory for the interaction of particles by weak or strong forces . While this influential paper has stood the test of time , the ideas within it were so new that when it was first submitted to the journal Nature in 1933 it was rejected as being too speculative . </P> <H2> The nature of the neutron ( edit ) </H2> Seventh Solvay Conference , 1933 . <P> The question of whether the neutron was a composite particle of a proton and an electron persisted for a few years after its discovery .

: beauty or perfect . </P> <P> In the Bronze Age a representation of the cross as conceived in Christian art appeared , and the form was popularised . The more precise characterization coincided with a corresponding general change in customs and beliefs . The cross then came into use in various forms on many objects : fibulas , cinctures , earthenware fragments , and on the bottom of drinking vessels . De Mortillet believed that such use of the sign was not merely ornamental , but rather a symbol of consecration , especially in the case of objects pertaining to burial . In the proto - Etruscan cemetery of Golasecca every tomb has a vase with a cross engraved on it . True crosses of more or less artistic design have been found in Tiryns , at Mycenæ , in Crete , and on a fibula from Vulci . </P> <P> According to W.E. Vine , the cross was used by worshipers of Tammuz , an Ancient Near East deity of Babylonian origin who had the cross-shaped taw ( tau ) as his symbol . </P> <H3> Instrument of execution ( edit ) </H3> Further information : Instrument of Jesus ' crucifixion , crux simplex , and tau cross <P> John Pearson , Bishop of Chester ( c. 1660 ) wrote in his commentary on the Apostles ' Creed that the Greek word stauros originally signified `` a straight standing Stake , Pale , or Palisador '' , but that , `` when other transverse or prominent parts were added in a perfect Cross , it retained still the Original Name '' , and he declared : `` The Form then of the Cross on which our Saviour suffered was not a simple , but a compounded , Figure , according to the Custom of the Romans , by whose Procurator he was condemned to die . In which there was not only a straight and erected piece of Wood fixed in the Earth , but also a transverse Beam fastned unto that towards the top thereof '' . </P> <P> In this he was in accord with the Early Christian descriptions of the execution cross . </P> A cross in Kerala <H3> Early Christian ( edit ) </H3> See also : Early Christian descriptions and Early Christian symbols The Alexamenos graffito The Sinai icon of Christ Pantocrator ( 6th century ) , showing Christ with a cruciform halo and holding a book adorned with a crux gemmata <P> During the first two centuries of Christianity , the cross was rare in Christian iconography , as it depicts a purposely painful and gruesome method of public execution and Christians were reluctant to use it . A symbol similar to the cross , the staurogram , was used to abbreviate the Greek word for cross in very early New Testament manuscripts such as P66 , P45 and P75 , almost like a nomen sacrum ( nomina sacra ) . The extensive adoption of the cross as Christian iconographic symbol arose from the 4th century . </P> <P> However , the cross symbol was already associated with Christians in the 2nd century , as is indicated in the anti-Christian arguments cited in the Octavius of Minucius Felix , chapters IX and XXIX , written at the end of that century or the beginning of the next , and by the fact that by the early 3rd century the cross had become so closely associated with Christ that Clement of Alexandria , who died between 211 and 216 , could without fear of ambiguity use the phrase τὸ κυριακὸν σημεῖον ( the Lord 's sign ) to mean the cross , when he repeated the idea , current as early as the apocryphal Epistle of Barnabas , that the number 318 ( in Greek numerals , ΤΙΗ ) in Genesis 14 : 14 was interpreted as a foreshadowing ( a `` type '' ) of the cross ( T , an upright with crossbar , standing for 300 ) and of Jesus ( ΙΗ , the first two letter of his name ΙΗΣΟΥΣ , standing for 18 ) , and his contemporary Tertullian could designate the body of Christian believers as crucis religiosi , i.e. `` devotees of the Cross '' . In his book De Corona , written in 204 , Tertullian tells how it was already a tradition for Christians to trace repeatedly on their foreheads the sign of the cross . The crucifix , a cross upon which an image of Christ is present , is not known to have been used until the 6th century AD . </P> <P> The oldest extant depiction of the execution of Jesus in any medium seems to be the second - century or early third - century relief on a jasper gemstone meant for use as an amulet , which is now in the British Museum in London . It portrays a naked bearded man whose arms are tied at the wrists by short strips to the transom of a T - shaped cross . An inscription in Greek on the obverse contains an invocation of the redeeming crucified Christ . On the reverse a later inscription by a different hand combines magical formulae with Christian terms . The catalogue of a 2007 exhibition says : `` The appearance of the Crucifixion on a gem of such an early date suggests that pictures of the subject ( now lost ) may have been widespread even in the late second or early third century , most likely in conventional Christian contexts '' . </P> <P> The Jewish Encyclopedia says : </P> <P> The cross as a Christian symbol or `` seal '' came into use at least as early as the second century ( see `` Apost . Const . '' iii. 17 ; Epistle of Barnabas , xi. - xii. ; Justin , `` Apologia , '' i . 55 - 60 ; `` Dial . cum Tryph . '' 85 - 97 ) ; and the marking of a cross upon the forehead and the

Construction was expedited in order to accommodate the increased vehicle traffic that was expected with the 1932 Summer Olympics , held in Los Angeles , as many of the aquatic and rowing events were to be held in Long Beach . </P> <P> The Los Alamitos Traffic Circle was one of the first of its kind to be constructed in the United States , and prior to their truncation , was also an end point of US 6 ( which connects Provincetown , Massachusetts some 3,227 miles ( 5,193 km ) to the east ) and US 91 . </P> <H3> Reclassification ( edit ) </H3> <P> In 1993 , the circle was converted from an old - style traffic circle to a modern roundabout by the California Department of Transportation ( Caltrans ) . This was the first such conversion in the United States . Yield signs replaced Stop signs , giving drivers inside the circle the right of way , which increased traffic flow efficiency . PCH ( the main thoroughfare ) was given an additional entry lane at both north and south bound routes . Also added were widened feeder lanes , and dedicated lanes for traffic traveling only 90 of the 360 degrees of the circle - the equivalent of a right turn at a traditional American traffic light . After the conversion , both the total auto accident and the injury rate significantly dropped , making the circle one of the safest statistically in the nation . The aforementioned modifications ran a cost of $350,000 . </P> <P> The Los Alamitos Traffic Circle was very similar to the 1932 Garces Memorial Circle located in Bakersfield , though the Bakersfield circle has not undergone modernization to roundabout standards . </P> <H3> Present day ( edit ) </H3> <P> Today the circle handles over 60,000 vehicles a day , mostly commuters from Orange County in the south heading to jobs in the South Bay area of Los Angeles County . The roadway is now owned by the State of California but managed by the City of Long Beach in cooperation with the California Department of Transportation ( Caltrans ) . The city provides landscaping and traffic code enforcement , while the state provides road maintenance . </P> <P> In addition to the main traffic circle , there is also an Outer Traffic Circle that is concentric with the main roundabout .

The Pardoner 's tale - wikipedia <H1> The Pardoner 's tale </H1> Jump to : navigation , search For the 2002 television episode , see The Pardoner 's Tale ( Law & Order : Criminal Intent episode ) . The Pardoner , as depicted by William Blake in The Canterbury Pilgrims ( 1810 ) <P> The Pardoner 's Tale is one of The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer . In the order of the Tales , it comes after The Physician 's Tale and before The Shipman 's Tale ; it is prompted by the Host 's desire to hear something positive after that depressing tale . The Pardoner initiates his Prologue -- briefly accounting his methods of conning people -- and then proceeds to tell a moral tale . </P> <P> The tale itself is an extended exemplum . Setting out to kill Death , three young men encounter an Old Man who says they will find him under a nearby tree . When they arrive they discover a hoard of treasure and decide to stay with it until nightfall and carry it away under cover of darkness . Out of greed , they murder each other . The tale and prologue are primarily concerned with what the Pardoner says is his `` theme '' : Radix malorum est cupiditas ( `` Greed is the root of ( all ) evils '' ) . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Frame </Li> <Li> 2 Synopsis <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Prologue </Li> <Li> 2.2 Tale </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Sources and composition </Li> <Li> 4 Analysis </Li> <Li> 5 Character of the teller </Li> <Li> 6 General themes </Li> <Li> 7 Adaptations </Li> <Li> 8 See also </Li> <Li> 9 Notes </Li> <Li> 10 References </Li> <Li> 11 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Frame ( edit ) </H2> <P> In the order of The Canterbury Tales , the Pardoner 's Prologue and Tale are preceded by The Physician 's Tale . The Physician 's Tale is a harrowing tale about a judge who plots with a `` churl ( low fellow ) '' to abduct a beautiful young woman ; rather than allow her to be raped , her father beheads her . The invitation for the Pardoner to tell a tale comes after the Host declares his dissatisfaction with the depressing tale , and declares : </P> <Dl> <Dd> ... but ( unless ) I have triacle ( medicine ) , </Dd> <Dd> Or elles a draughte of morste ( fresh ) and corny ( strong ) ale , </Dd> <Dd> Or but I heere anon a myrie tale , </Dd> <Dd> Myn herte is lost for pitee of this mayde . ( lines 314 -- 17 ) </Dd> </Dl> <P> The Host then asks the Pardoner to `` telle us som mrythe or japes ( joke , jest ) right anon '' . However , the pilgrims -- aware of pardoners ' notoriety for telling lewd tales and in anticipation of hearing something objectionable -- voice their desire for no ribaldry , but instead want a moral tale . </P> <H2> Synopsis ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Prologue ( edit ) </H3> <P> The prologue takes the form of a literary confession in the same manner as The Wife of Bath 's Prologue . However , rather than an apology for his vices , the Pardoner boasts of his duping of his victims , for whom he has nothing but contempt . He says that his `` theme '' -- biblical text for a sermon -- is Radix malorum est cupiditas ( `` Greed is the root of ( all ) evils '' 1 Timothy 6.10 ) . He explains that his false credentials consist of official letters from high - ranking church officials and a superficial use of a few Latin words ; then he will produce some `` relics '' , and claim that among them is a bone which has miraculous powers when dipped into a well and a mitten for which : </P> <Dl> <Dd> He that his hand wol putte in this mitayn , </Dd> <Dd> He shal have multipliyng of his greyn , ( lines 373 -- 374 ) </Dd> </Dl> <P> But he will warn that any person that `` hath doon synne horrible '' will not be able to benefit from these relics . The Pardoner says to the pilgrims that by these tricks he has acquired a considerable sum of money . He goes on to relate how he stands like a clergy at the pulpit , and preaches against avarice but to gain the congregation 's money ; he does n't care for the correction of sin or for their souls . Against anyone that offends either him or other pardoners , he will `` stynge hym with my tonge smerte '' . Although he is guilty of avarice himself , he reiterates that his theme is always Radix malorum ... and that he can nonetheless preach so that others turn away from the vice and repent -- though his `` principal entente '' is for personal gain . The Pardoner explains that he then offers many anecdotes to the `` lewed ( ignorant , unlearned ) people '' . He scorns the thought of living in poverty while he preaches ; he desires `` moneie , wolle ( wool ) , chese , and whete '' and does n't care whether it were from the poorest widow in the village , even should her children starve for famine . Yet , he concludes to the pilgrims , though he may be a `` ful vicious man '' , he can tell a moral tale and proceeds . </P> <H3> Tale ( edit ) </H3> <P> The tale is set in Flanders at an indeterminate time , and opens with three young men drinking , gambling and blaspheming in a tavern . The Pardoner condemns each of these `` tavern sins '' in turn -- gluttony , drinking , gambling , and swearing --

Up until the start of the 20th century , European authorities issued licenses to drive motor vehicles similarly ad hoc , if at all . </P> <P> Mandatory licensing for drivers came into force on 1 January 1904 after the Motor Car Act 1903 received royal assent in the United Kingdom . Every car owner had to register their vehicle with their local government authority and be able to prove registration of their vehicle on request . The minimum qualifying age was set at 17 . The licence gave its holder ' freedom of the road ' with a maximum 20 mph ( 32 km / h ) speed limit . Compulsory testing was introduced in 1934 , with the passing of the Road Traffic Act . </P> <P> Prussia , then a state within the German Empire , introduced compulsory licensing on September 29 , 1903 . A test on mechanical aptitude had to be passed and the Dampfkesselüberwachungsverein ( `` steam boiler supervision association '' ) was charged with conducting these tests . In 1910 , the German imperial government mandated the licensing of drivers on a national scale , establishing a system of tests and driver 's education requirements that was adopted in other countries . </P> <P> In 1909 , the Convention with Respect to the International Circulation of Motor Vehicles recognize the need of qualifications , examination , and authorization for international driving . </P> <P> In 1929 , the notion of International Driving Permit is addressed by international Convention . </P> <P> In 1977 , the Convention on road traffic address the notion of driving license for a number of countries , under the wording `` driving permit '' . </P> <P> Other countries in Europe also introduced driving tests during the twentieth century , the last of them being Belgium where , until 1977 , it was possible to purchase and hold a license without having to undergo a driving test . </P> <P> As automobile - related fatalities soared in North America , public outcry provoked legislators to begin studying the French and German statutes as models . On August 1 , 1910 , North America 's first licensing law for motor vehicles went into effect in the US state of New York , though it initially applied only to professional chauffeurs . In July 1913 , the state of New Jersey became the first to require all drivers to pass a mandatory examination before receiving a license . </P> <H2> Driver 's licenses used for identification purposes ( edit ) </H2> <P> Many countries , including Australia , New Zealand , Canada , the United Kingdom , and the United States , have no national identification cards . As many people have driver 's licenses , they are often accepted as de facto proof of identity .

Succession to the British throne - wikipedia <H1> Succession to the British throne </H1> Jump to : navigation , search The Sovereign 's Throne in the House of Lords , from which the speech is delivered at State Openings of Parliament <P> Succession to the British throne is determined by descent , gender ( for people born before October 2011 ) , legitimacy , and religion . Under common law , the Crown is inherited by a sovereign 's children or by a childless sovereign 's nearest collateral line . The Bill of Rights 1689 and the Act of Settlement 1701 , restrict succession to the throne to the legitimate Protestant descendants of Sophia of Hanover that are in `` communion with the Church of England '' . Spouses of Roman Catholics were disqualified from 1689 until the law was amended in 2015 . Protestant descendants of those excluded for being Roman Catholics are eligible . </P> <P> Queen Elizabeth II is the sovereign , and her heir apparent is her eldest son , Charles , Prince of Wales . Next in line after him is Prince William , Duke of Cambridge , the Prince of Wales 's elder son . Third in line is Prince George , the son of the Duke of Cambridge , followed by his sister , Princess Charlotte . Fifth in line is Prince Henry of Wales , the younger son of the Prince of Wales . Sixth in line is Prince Andrew , Duke of York , the Queen 's second - eldest son . Any of the first six in line marrying without the sovereign 's consent would be disqualified from succession . </P> <P> The first four individuals in the line of succession who are over 21 , and the sovereign 's consort , may be appointed Counsellors of State . Counsellors of State perform some of the sovereign 's duties in the United Kingdom while he or she is out of the country or temporarily incapacitated . Otherwise , individuals in the line of succession need not have specific legal or official roles . </P> <P> The United Kingdom is one of the 16 Commonwealth realms . Each of those countries has the same person as monarch and the same order of succession . In 2011 , the prime ministers of the realms agreed unanimously to adopt a common approach to amending the rules on the succession to their respective Crowns so that absolute primogeniture would apply for persons born after the date of the agreement , instead of male - preference primogeniture , and the ban on marriages to Roman Catholics would be lifted , but the monarch would still need to be in communion with the Church of England . After the necessary legislation had been enacted in accordance with each realm 's constitution , the changes took effect on 26 March 2015 . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Current line of succession </Li> <Li> 2 History <Ul> <Li> 2.1 England </Li> <Li> 2.2 Scotland </Li> <Li> 2.3 After the union of the crowns <Ul> <Li> 2.3. 1 Stuarts </Li> <Li> 2.3. 2 Hanoverians and Windsors </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2.4 Commonwealth realms , 20c. and after </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Current rules <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Marriages </Li> <Li> 3.2 Religion </Li> <Li> 3.3 Treason </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Accession </Li> <Li> 5 See also </Li> <Li> 6 Notes </Li> <Li> 7 References </Li> <Li> 8 Sources </Li> <Li> 9 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Current line of succession ( edit ) </H2> <Table> <Tr> <Th> First six in line from 2 May 2015 </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 1 .

of why others do not exist ) For more details on this topic , see hydrogen atom . <P> H ( atomic mass 7000100782503224100 ♠ 1.007 825 032 241 ( 94 ) u ) is the most common hydrogen isotope with an abundance of more than 99.98 % . Because the nucleus of this isotope consists of only a single proton , it is given the formal name protium . </P> <P> The proton has never been observed to decay , and hydrogen - 1 is therefore considered a stable isotope . Some grand unified theories proposed in the 1970s predict that proton decay can occur with a half - life between 10 and 10 years . If this prediction is found to be true , then hydrogen - 1 ( and indeed all nuclei now believed to be stable ) are only observationally stable . To date , however , experiments have shown that the minimum proton half - life is in excess of 10 years . </P> <H2> Hydrogen - 2 ( deuterium ) ( edit ) </H2> For more details on this topic , see deuterium . A deuterium atom contains one proton , one neutron , and one electron <P> H ( atomic mass 7000201410177811000 ♠ 2.014 101 778 11 ( 12 ) u ) , the other stable hydrogen isotope , is known as deuterium and contains one proton and one neutron in its nucleus . The nucleus of deuterium is called a deuteron . Deuterium comprises 0.0026 -- 0.0184 % ( by population , not by mass ) of hydrogen samples on Earth , with the lower number tending to be found in samples of hydrogen gas and the higher enrichment ( 0.015 % or 150 ppm ) typical of ocean water . Deuterium on Earth has been enriched with respect to its initial concentration in the Big Bang and the outer solar system ( about 27 ppm , by atom fraction ) and its concentration in older parts of the Milky Way galaxy ( about 23 ppm ) . Presumably the differential concentration of deuterium in the inner solar system is due to the lower volatility of deuterium gas and compounds , enriching deuterium fractions in comets and planets exposed to significant heat from the Sun over billions of years of solar system evolution . </P> <P> Deuterium is not radioactive , and does not represent a significant toxicity hazard . Water enriched in molecules that include deuterium instead of protium is called heavy water . Deuterium and its compounds are used as a non-radioactive label in chemical experiments and in solvents for H - NMR spectroscopy . Heavy water is used as a neutron moderator and coolant for nuclear reactors . Deuterium is also a potential fuel for commercial nuclear fusion . </P> <H2> Hydrogen - 3 ( tritium ) ( edit ) </H2> For more details on this topic , see tritium . A tritium atom contains one proton , two neutrons , and one electron <P> H ( atomic mass 7000301604928199000 ♠ 3.016 049 281 99 ( 23 ) u ) is known as tritium and contains one proton and two neutrons in its nucleus . It is radioactive , decaying into helium - 3 through β − decay with a half - life of 12.32 years . Trace amounts of tritium occur naturally because of the interaction of cosmic rays with atmospheric gases . Tritium has also been released during nuclear weapons tests . It is used in thermonuclear fusion weapons , as a tracer in isotope geochemistry , and specialized in self - powered lighting devices . </P> <P> The most common method of producing tritium is by bombarding a natural isotope of lithium , lithium - 6 , with neutrons in a nuclear reactor . </P> <P> Tritium was once used routinely in chemical and biological labeling experiments as a radiolabel , which has become less common in recent times . D-T nuclear fusion uses tritium as its main reactant , along with deuterium , liberating energy through the loss of mass when the two nuclei collide and fuse at high temperatures . </P> <H2> Hydrogen - 4 ( edit ) </H2> <P> H ( atomic mass is 7000402643000000000 ♠ 4.026 43 ( 11 ) u ) contains one proton and three neutrons in its nucleus . It is a highly unstable isotope of hydrogen . It has been synthesised in the laboratory by bombarding tritium with fast - moving deuterium nuclei . In this experiment , the tritium nucleus captured a neutron from the fast - moving deuterium nucleus . The presence of the hydrogen - 4 was deduced by detecting the emitted protons . It decays through neutron emission into hydrogen - 3 ( tritium ) with a half - life of about 139 ± 10 yoctoseconds , or ( 1.39 ± 0.10 ) × 10 seconds . </P> <P> In the 1955 satirical novel The Mouse That Roared , the name quadium was given to the hydrogen - 4 isotope that powered the Q - bomb that the Duchy of Grand Fenwick captured from the United States . </P> <H2> Hydrogen - 5 ( edit ) </H2> <P> H is a highly unstable isotope of hydrogen . The nucleus consists of a proton and four neutrons . It has been synthesised in the laboratory by bombarding tritium with fast - moving tritium nuclei . In this experiment , one tritium nucleus captures two neutrons from the other , becoming a nucleus with one proton and four neutrons . The remaining proton may be detected , and the existence of hydrogen - 5 deduced . It decays through double neutron emission into hydrogen - 3 ( tritium ) and has a half - life of at least 910 yoctoseconds ( 9.1 × 10 seconds ) . </P> <H2> Hydrogen - 6 ( edit ) </H2> <P> H decays either through triple neutron emission into hydrogen - 3 ( tritium ) or quadruple neutron emission into hydrogen - 2 ( deuterium ) and has a half - life of 290

The song was sung in the original Broadway show by Tamara Drasin . Its first recorded performance was by Gertrude Niesen , who recorded the song with orchestral direction from Ray Sinatra , Frank Sinatra 's second cousin , on October 13 , 1933 . Niesen 's recording of the song was released by Victor , catalog # VE B 24454 , with the B - side , `` Jealousy '' , featuring Isham Jones and his Orchestra . </P> <P> Paul Whiteman had the first hit recording of the song on the record charts in 1934 . The song was later reprised by Irene Dunne , who performed it in the original 1935 film adaptation of the musical , co-starring Fred Astaire , Ginger Rogers and Randolph Scott . The song was also included in the 1952 remake of Roberta , Lovely to Look At , in which it was performed by Kathryn Grayson , and was a chart hit in 1958 for The Platters . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Later recordings <Ul> <Li> 1.1 1930s -- 1950s <Ul> <Li> 1.1. 1 Eartha Kitt versions </Li> <Li> 1.1. 2 The Platters version <Ul> <Li> 1.1. 2.1 Charts </Li> </Ul> </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 1.2 1960s -- 1980s </Li> <Li> 1.3 1990s -- 2010s </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 List of notable recordings </Li> <Li> 3 In popular culture <Ul> <Li> 3.1 In film </Li> <Li> 3.2 In television </Li> <Li> 3.3 In music </Li> <Li> 3.4 In literature </Li> <Li> 3.5 In other uses </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 See also </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> <Li> 6 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Later recordings ( edit ) </H2> <H3> 1930s -- 1950s ( edit ) </H3> <P> The song has been covered by numerous artists ; the first being Paul Whiteman and his Orchestra , with a vocal performance from Bob Lawrence . This version of the song topped music charts in 1934 . Other early covers of the song include that of the Tommy Dorsey orchestra , who released their contemporary version in 1938 , with His Master 's Voice . The B - side to Dorsey 's single was `` Night And Day '' . During the mid-to - late 1930s Larry Adler and Henry Hall recorded live radio performances of the song on BBC Radio broadcasts ; Adler 's rendition , a complex , syncopated , harmonic arrangement , and Hall 's , a full orchestral performance with the BBC orchestra and a vocal performance from Dan Donovan . Henry Hall 's version was also released as a 10 '' single . Art Tatum said in an introduction to a 1955 performance of the song that he performed `` Smoke Gets in Your Eyes '' in the 1930s , contributing to the song 's popularity . However , it is unclear whether Tatum recorded the song during that decade ; if a recording was made at that time , it may not have survived to the present day . </P> Benny Goodman and his orchestra performing with Peggy Lee . <P> In 1941 the Benny Goodman Orchestra first performed the song during recorded radio performances with Helen Forrest . Forrest chose to leave the ensemble during the early part of 1941 , and Goodman then began performing the song with her replacement Peggy Lee , whose recording , from a Mutual sustaining broadcast , was later released on a double long - play album ; named Benny And Sid `` Roll ' Em '' , the album consisted of an assortment of live radio broadcasts by the group . Glenn Miller conducted his rendition of the song at Abbey Road Studios in 1944 . Owing to his sudden death later that year , his orchestral version of the song was not released until 1995 . On October 30 , 1946 Nat `` King '' Cole recorded the song , with Oscar Moore playing guitar and Johnny Miller playing bass as the `` King Cole Trio '' . Cole 's recording was made during a live WMCA radio broadcast from New York . Later , in 1957 , Cole performed the song live on his television variety show The Nat King Cole Show . Though it was not released until some years later , Harry Belafonte made a recording of the song in 1949 with jazz saxophonist Zoot Sims . This was one of Belafonte 's first recordings . Sims ' performance on the track would later be parodied by the character inspired by him , in episode 2.02 of The Muppet Show , which aired on December 10 , 1977 .

of farmland were abandoned during the Great Depression and incorporated into nascent national forests . Later , `` Sodbuster '' and `` Swampbuster '' restrictions written into federal farm programs starting in the 1970s reversed a decades - long trend of habitat destruction that began in 1942 when farmers were encouraged to plant all possible land in support of the war effort .

They closed the Hacienda on December 1 , 1996 , and imploded it a month later on New Year 's Eve . Plans for the tropical - themed `` Project Paradise '' were revealed the same day , with an estimated budget of $800 million to $1 billion . In February 1998 the project was renamed Mandalay Bay to evoke the exotic tropical romanticism of the poem `` Mandalay '' . </P> <P> Problems arose during construction because of excessive and uneven settling of the soil beneath the building ; the core of the building sank by 17 inches ( 430 mm ) , while one of the wings had settled by only 2 inches ( 51 mm ) . Rumors about the severity of the issues depressed Circus Circus 's stock price . The problem was solved by installing 536 micropiles ( 200 - foot - long metal pipes filled with grout , each capped with a hydraulic jack ) below the building , at an estimated cost of $8 to $10 million . </P> <P> The resort opened on March 2 , 1999 , with grand opening festivities that included the Blues Brothers ( Dan Aykroyd , James Belushi , and John Goodman ) leading a procession of 200 motorcycles to Mandalay Bay 's front doors , and a concert by Bob Dylan at the House of Blues . </P> <P> In June 1999 , Circus Circus changed its name to Mandalay Resort Group . </P> <P> Construction of a major convention center at Mandalay Bay was begun in June 2001 , with its opening originally set for the summer of 2002 . After a delay in the wake of the September 11 , 2001 attacks , the Mandalay Bay Convention Center opened in January 2003 . With 1.5 million square feet ( 140,000 m ) of space , it was the fifth largest convention center in the nation . </P> <P> On May 23 , 2002 , the Mandalay Resort Group announced a second 1,122 - room hotel tower , with a cost of at least $200 million . Construction began on the project in September 2002 . The name of the tower , THEhotel at Mandalay Bay , was revealed in October 2003 . The tower opened on December 17 , 2003 . </P> <P> In February 2005 , Mandalay Resort Group was sold to MGM Mirage ( later MGM Resorts International ) , who currently own the resort . The acquisition was finalized on April 25 , 2005 . </P>

Kick - off ( association football ) - wikipedia <H1> Kick - off ( association football ) </H1> Jump to : navigation , search Kick - off at the final of the 2005 Confederations Cup <P> A kick - off is the method of starting and , in some cases , restarting play in a game of association football . The rules concerning the kick - off are part of Law 8 of the Laws of the Game . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Award </Li> <Li> 2 Procedure </Li> <Li> 3 Infringements </Li> <Li> 4 References </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Award ( edit ) </H2> <P> A kick - off is used to start each half of play , and each period of extra time where applicable . The kick - off to start a game is awarded to the team that lost the pre-game coin toss ( the team that won the coin - toss chooses which direction they wish to play ) . The kick - off begins when the referee blows the whistle . The kick - off to start the second half is taken by the other team . If extra time is played another coin - toss is used at the beginning of this period . </P> <P> A kick - off is also used to restart play after a goal is scored , and is taken by the team that conceded the goal . </P> <H2> Procedure ( edit ) </H2> Luis Suárez and Andy Carroll preparing to kick - off . <P> The kick - off is taken from the centre spot . All players must be in their own half of the field of play , and all opposing players must remain at least 10 yards ( 9.16 m ) from the ball ( a distance marked on the pitch by the centre circle ) , until the ball is in play . </P> <P> The ball is initially stationary until it is put into play by being kicked . The player who has first kicked the ball may not touch it again until it has been touched by another player . </P> <P> A stipulation that this kick must be towards the opponents ' goal existed in the rules from 1883 until 2016 . This resulted in kick - offs typically involving two persons ( as pictured ) , with one tapping the ball forward and the other passing it back to the rest of the team . </P> <P> A goal may be scored directly from a kick - off against the opponent . </P> <H2> Infringements ( edit ) </H2> <P> If a player moves from their required position as detailed above the kick is retaken . Failure to maintain position may constitute misconduct and be punished by a caution ( yellow card ) . </P> <P> It is an offence for the kicker to touch the ball a second time until it has been touched by another player ; this is punishable by an indirect free kick to the defending team from where the offence occurred , unless the second touch was also a more serious handling offence , in which case it is punishable by a direct free kick . </P> <H2> References ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> Jump up ^ `` LAW 8 - THE START AND RESTART OF PLAY - FIFA.com '' .

As of January 2018 , 323 people had been elected to the Hall of Fame , including 226 former Major League Baseball players , 35 Negro league baseball players and executives , 22 managers , 10 umpires , and 30 pioneers , executives , and organizers. 114 members of the Hall of Fame have been inducted posthumously , including four who died after their selection was announced . Of the 35 Negro league members , 29 were inducted posthumously , including all 24 selected since the 1990s . The Hall of Fame includes one female member , Effa Manley . </P> <P> The newest members elected on January 24 , 2018 , are players Chipper Jones , Jim Thome , Vladimir Guerrero , and Trevor Hoffman . They will be officially inducted on July 29 , 2018 , alongside players Jack Morris and Alan Trammell . </P> <H3> Selection process ( edit ) </H3> First Class of inductees L-R by votes : Ty Cobb , Babe Ruth , Honus Wagner , Christy Mathewson , Walter Johnson <P> Players are currently inducted into the Hall of Fame through election by either the Baseball Writers ' Association of America ( or BBWAA ) , or the Veterans Committee , which now consists of four subcommittees , each of which considers and votes for candidates from a separate era of baseball . Five years after retirement , any player with 10 years of major league experience who passes a screening committee ( which removes from consideration players of clearly lesser qualification ) is eligible to be elected by BBWAA members with 10 years ' membership or more who also have been actively covering MLB at any time in the 10 years preceding the election ( the latter requirement was added for the 2016 election ) . From a final ballot typically including 25 -- 40 candidates , each writer may vote for up to 10 players ; until the late 1950s , voters were advised to cast votes for the maximum 10 candidates . Any player named on 75 % or more of all ballots cast is elected . A player who is named on fewer than 5 % of ballots is dropped from future elections . In some instances , the screening committee had restored their names to later ballots , but in the mid-1990s , dropped players were made permanently ineligible for Hall of Fame consideration , even by the Veterans Committee . A 2001 change in the election procedures restored the eligibility of these dropped players ; while their names will not appear on future BBWAA ballots , they may be considered by the Veterans Committee . Players receiving 5 % or more of the votes but fewer than 75 % are reconsidered annually until a maximum of ten years of eligibility ( lowered from fifteen years for the 2015 election ) . </P> <P> Under special circumstances , certain players may be deemed eligible for induction even though they have not met all requirements . Addie Joss was elected in 1978 , despite only playing nine seasons before he died of meningitis . Additionally , if an otherwise eligible player dies before his fifth year of retirement , then that player may be placed on the ballot at the first election at least six months after his death . Roberto Clemente 's induction in 1973 set the precedent when the writers chose to put him up for consideration after his death on New Year 's Eve , 1972 . </P> Lineup for Yesterday Z is for Zenith The summit of fame . These men are up there . These men are the game . <P> -- Ogden Nash , Sport magazine ( January 1949 ) </P> <P> The five - year waiting period was established in 1954 after an evolutionary process . In 1936 all players were eligible , including active ones . From the 1937 election until the 1945 election , there was no waiting period , so any retired player was eligible , but writers were discouraged from voting for current major leaguers . Since there was no formal rule preventing a writer from casting a ballot for

Attestations for Akronym in German are known from 1921 , and for acronym in English from 1940 . </P> <P> Although the word acronym is often used to refer to any abbreviation formed from initial letters , some dictionaries and usage commentators define acronym to mean an abbreviation that is pronounced as a word , in contrast to an initialism ( or alphabetism ) ‍ -- ‌an abbreviation formed from a string of initials ( and possibly pronounced as individual letters ) . Some dictionaries include additional senses equating acronym with initialism . The distinction , when made , hinges on whether the abbreviation is pronounced as a word or as a string of individual letters . Examples in reference works that make the distinction include NATO / ˈneɪtoʊ / , scuba / ˈskuːbə / , and radar / ˈreɪdɑːr / for acronyms ; and FBI / ˌɛfˌbiːˈaɪ / , CRT / ˌsiːˌɑːrˈtiː / , and HTML / ˌeɪtʃˌtiːˌɛmˈɛl / for initialisms . The rest of this article uses acronym for both types of abbreviation . </P> <P> The distinction is not well - maintained . According to Merriam - Webster 's Dictionary of English Usage : `` A number of commentators ... believe that acronyms can be differentiated from other abbreviations in being pronounceable as words . Dictionaries , however , do not make this distinction because writers in general do not ... Initialism , an older word than acronym , seems to be too little known to the general public to serve as the customary term standing in contrast with acronym in a narrow sense . '' About the use of acronym to only mean those pronounced as words , Fowler 's Modern English Usage ( 3rd ed . ) states : `` The limitations of the term being not widely known to the general public , acronym is also often applied to abbreviations that are familiar but are not pronounceable as words ... Such terms are also called initialisms . '' </P> <P> A clearer distinction has also been drawn , by Pyles & Algeo ( 1970 ) , who divided acronyms as a general category into word acronyms pronounced as words , and initialisms sounded out as letters . </P> <P> There is no special term for abbreviations whose pronunciation involves the combination of letter names and words or word - like pronunciations of strings of letters , such as JPEG / ˈdʒeɪpɛɡ / and MS - DOS / ˌɛmɛsˈdɒs / . There is also some disagreement as to what to call abbreviations that some speakers pronounce as letters and others pronounce as a word . For example , the terms URL and IRA can be pronounced as individual letters :

5 Bourbon Restoration </Li> <Li> 6 July Monarchy </Li> <Li> 7 Second Empire </Li> <Li> 8 Versailles under Pierre de Nolhac </Li> <Li> 9 The Van der Kemp period </Li> <Li> 10 Contemporary Versailles </Li> <Li> 11 References </Li> <Li> 12 Bibliography </Li> <Li> 13 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Origins ( edit ) </H2> <P> The earliest mention of the name of Versailles is found in a document which predates 1038 , the Charte de l'abbaye Saint - Père de Chartres ( Charter of the Saint - Père de Chartres Abbey ) , in which one of the signatories was a certain Hugo de Versailliis ( Hugues de Versailles ) , who was seigneur of Versailles . </P> <P> During this period , the village of Versailles centred on a small castle and church , and the area was governed by a local lord . Its location on the road from Paris to Dreux and Normandy brought some prosperity to the village but , following an outbreak of the Plague and the Hundred Years ' War , the village was largely destroyed , and its population sharply declined . In 1575 , Albert de Gondi , a naturalized Florentine who gained prominence at the court of Henry II , purchased the seigneury of Versailles . </P> <H2> Ancien Régime ( edit ) </H2> The château , c. 1630 -- 1640 , as shown on the map of Jacques Gomboust ( fr ) <H3> Louis XIII ( edit ) </H3> <P> In the early seventeenth century , Gondi invited Louis XIII on several hunting trips in the forests surrounding Versailles . Pleased with the location , Louis ordered the construction of a hunting lodge in 1624 . Designed by Philibert Le Roy , the structure , a small château , was constructed of stone and red brick , with a based roof . Eight years later , Louis obtained the seigneury of Versailles from the Gondi family and began to make enlargements to the château . </P> <P> A vignette of Versailles from the 1652 Paris map of Jacques Gomboust ( fr ) shows a traditional design : an entrance court with a corps de logis on the far western end , flanked by secondary wings on the north and south sides , and closed off by an entrance screen . Adjacent exterior towers were located at the four corners , with the entire structure surrounded by a moat . This was preceded by two service wings , creating a forecourt with a grilled entrance marked by two round towers . The vignette also shows a garden on the western side of the château with a fountain on the central axis and rectangular planted parterres to either side . </P> <P> Louis XIV had played and hunted at the site as a boy . With a few modifications , this structure would become the core of the new palace . </P> <H3> Louis XIV ( edit ) </H3> Statue of Louis XIV in Versailles <P> Louis XIII 's successor , Louis XIV , had a great interest in Versailles . He settled on the royal hunting lodge at Versailles , and over the following decades had it expanded into one of the largest palaces in the world . Beginning in 1661 , the architect Louis Le Vau , landscape architect André Le Nôtre , and painter - decorator Charles Lebrun began a detailed renovation and expansion of the château . This was done to fulfill Louis XIV 's desire to establish a new centre for the royal court . Following the Treaties of Nijmegen in 1678 , he began to gradually move the court to Versailles . The court was officially established there on 6 May 1682 . </P> <P> By moving his court and government to Versailles , Louis XIV hoped to extract more control of the government from the nobility and to distance himself from the population of Paris . All the power of France emanated from this centre : there were government offices here , as well as the homes of thousands of courtiers , their retinues , and all the attendant functionaries of court . By requiring that nobles of a certain rank and position spend time each year at Versailles , Louis prevented them from developing their own regional power at the expense of his own and kept them from countering his efforts to centralise the French government in an absolute monarchy . The meticulous and strict court etiquette that Louis established , which overwhelmed his heirs with its petty boredom , was epitomised in the elaborate ceremonies and exacting procedures that accompanied his rising in the morning , known as the Lever , divided into a petit lever for the most important and a grand lever for the whole court . Like other French court manners , étiquette was quickly imitated in other European courts . </P> <P> The expansion of the château became synonymous with the absolutism of Louis XIV . In 1661 , following the death of Cardinal Mazarin , chief minister of the government , Louis had declared that he would be his own chief minister . The idea of establishing the court at Versailles was conceived to ensure that all of his advisors and provincial rulers would be kept close to him . He feared that they would rise up against him and start a revolt and believed that if he kept all of his potential threats near him , they would be powerless . After the disgrace of Nicolas Fouquet in 1661 -- Louis claimed the finance minister would not have been able to build his grand château at Vaux - le - Vicomte without having embezzled from the crown -- Louis , after the confiscation of Fouquet 's estate , employed the talents of Le Vau , Le Nôtre , and Le Brun , who all had worked on Vaux - le - Vicomte , for his building campaigns at Versailles and elsewhere . For Versailles , there were four distinct building campaigns ( after minor alterations and enlargements had

Netherlands in World war II - wikipedia <H1> Netherlands in World war II </H1> Jump to : navigation , search The city of Rotterdam after the German bombing during the German invasion of the Netherlands in May 1940 . <P> The direct involvement of the Netherlands in World War II began with its invasion by Nazi Germany on 10 May 1940 . The Netherlands had proclaimed neutrality when war broke out in September 1939 , just as it had in World War I , but Adolf Hitler ordered it to be invaded anyway . On 15 May 1940 , one day after the bombing of Rotterdam , the Dutch forces surrendered . The Dutch government and the royal family escaped and went into exile in London . </P> <P> Following the defeat , the Netherlands was placed under German occupation , which endured in some areas until the German surrender in May 1945 . Active resistance was carried out by a small minority , which grew in the course of the occupation . The occupiers deported the majority of the country 's Jews to Nazi concentration camps , with the cooperation of much of the Dutch police and civil service . </P> <P> Due to the high variation in the survival rate of Jewish inhabitants amongst local regions in the Netherlands , scholars have questioned the validity of a single explanation at the national level . Nonetheless , and also due to the well - organized population registers comparing to other countries , about 70 % of the country 's Jewish population were killed during the conflict , a much higher percentage than comparable countries , like Belgium and France . However , uniquely within all German occupied areas , the city of Amsterdam organized an industrial action to protest the persecution of its Jewish citizens . </P> <P> Most of the south of the country was liberated in the second half of 1944 . The rest , especially the west and north of the country still under occupation , suffered from a famine at the end of 1944 , known as the `` Hunger Winter '' . On 5 May 1945 , the whole country was finally liberated by the total surrender of all German forces . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Interbellum <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Neutrality </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 German invasion <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Bombing of Rotterdam </Li> <Li> 2.2 Dutch surrender </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 German occupation <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Life in the occupied Netherlands <Ul> <Li> 3.1. 1 Luftwaffe </Li> <Li> 3.1. 2 Forced labour and resistance </Li> <Li> 3.1. 3 Atlantic Wall </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3.2 Holocaust </Li> <Li> 3.3 Collaboration </Li> <Li> 3.4 Dutch resistance </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Dutch Army in Exile </Li> <Li> 5 Dutch East Indies and the war in the Far East </Li> <Li> 6 The final year <Ul> <Li> 6.1 Hunger Winter </Li> <Li> 6.2 Liberation </Li> <Li> 6.3 Casualties </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 7 After the war </Li> <Li> 8 See also </Li> <Li> 9 References </Li> <Li> 10 Further reading </Li> <Li> 11 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Interbellum ( edit ) </H2> A bunker of the Peel - Raam Line , built in 1939 . <P> Dutch governments between 1929 and 1943 were dominated by Christian and center - right political parties . From 1933 , the Netherlands were hit by the Great Depression , which had begun in 1929 . The incumbent government of Hendrikus Colijn pursued a programme of extensive cuts to maintain the value of the Guilder , resulting in workers ' riots in Amsterdam and a naval mutiny between 1933 and 1934 . Eventually , in 1936 , the government was forced to abandon the gold standard and devalue the currency . </P> <P> Numerous fascist movements emerged in the Netherlands during the Great Depression era , inspired by Italian Fascism or German Nazism . Nevertheless , they never attracted enough members to be an effective mass - movement , though the pro-Nazi movement , supported by the Nazi Party which took power in Germany in 1933 , attempted to in 1935 . Nazi - style racial ideology had limited appeal in the Netherlands , as did its calls to violence . </P> <P> The interwar period also saw a significant increase in civil infrastructure projects and land reclamation , including the Zuiderzee Works , which led to the final draining of seawater from the Wieringermeerpolder , and the completion of the Afsluitdijk dike . </P> <H3> Neutrality ( edit ) </H3> `` The new Reich has endeavored to continue the traditional friendship with Holland ( sic ) . It has not taken over any existing differences between the two countries and has not created any new ones . '' German guarantee of neutrality , 6 October 1939 <P> During World War I , the Dutch government under Pieter Cort van der Linden had managed to preserve the Dutch neutrality throughout the conflict . In the inter-war period , the Netherlands had continued to pursue its `` Independence Policy '' , even after the rise to power of the Nazi Party in Germany in 1933 . The conservative prime minister Colijn , who held power from 1933 until 1939 , believed the Netherlands would never be able to withstand an attack by a major power , and military spending accordingly remained a low priority . Even though military spending was doubled between 1938 and 1939 , amid the rising international tensions , it still constituted only 4 % of national spending in 1939 , in contrast to nearly 25 % in Nazi - ruled Germany . The Dutch government believed it would be able to rely on its neutrality , or at least the informal support of foreign powers , to defend its interests in case of war . The government did , however , begin to work on plans for the defence of the country . This included the `` New Dutch Waterline '' , an area to the east of

Names of monarchs and popes , e.g. Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom , Pope Benedict XVI . These are referred to as regnal numbers ; e.g. II is pronounced `` the second '' . This tradition began in Europe sporadically in the Middle Ages , gaining widespread use in England only during the reign of Henry VIII . Previously , the monarch was not known by numeral but by an epithet such as Edward the Confessor . Some monarchs ( e.g. Charles IV of Spain and Louis XIV of France ) seem to have preferred the use of IIII instead of IV on their coinage ( see illustration ) . </Li> <Li> Generational suffixes , particularly in the US , for people sharing the same name across generations , for example William Howard Taft IV . </Li> <Li> In the French Republican Calendar , initiated during the French Revolution , years were numbered by Roman numerals -- from the year I ( 1792 ) when this calendar was introduced to the year XIV ( 1805 ) when it was abandoned . </Li> <Li> The year of production of films , television shows and other works of art within the work itself . It has been suggested -- by BBC News , perhaps facetiously -- that this was originally done `` in an attempt to disguise the age of films or television programmes . '' Outside reference to the work will use regular Hindu -- Arabic numerals . </Li> <Li> Hour marks on timepieces . In this context , 4 is usually written IIII . </Li> <Li> The year of construction on building faces and cornerstones . </Li> <Li> Page numbering of prefaces and introductions of books , and sometimes of annexes , too . </Li> <Li> Book volume and chapter numbers , as well as the several acts within a play ( e.g. Act iii , Scene 2 ) . </Li> <Li> Sequels of some movies , video games , and other works ( as in Rocky II ) . </Li> <Li> Outlines that use numbers to show hierarchical relationships . </Li> <Li> Occurrences of a recurring grand event , for instance : <Ul> <Li> The Summer and Winter Olympic Games ( e.g. the XXI Olympic Winter Games ; the Games of the XXX Olympiad ) </Li> <Li> The Super Bowl , the annual championship game of the National Football League ( e.g. Super Bowl XXXVII ; Super Bowl 50 is a one - time exception ) </Li> <Li> WrestleMania , the annual professional wrestling event for the WWE ( e.g. WrestleMania XXX ) . This usage has also been inconsistent . </Li> </Ul> </Li> </Ul> Specific disciplines Entrance to section LII ( 52 ) of the Colosseum , with numerals still visible <P> In astronomy , the natural satellites or `` moons '' of the planets are traditionally designated by capital Roman numerals appended to the planet 's name . For example , Titan 's designation is Saturn VI . </P> <P> In chemistry , Roman numerals are often used to denote the groups of the periodic table . They are also used in the IUPAC nomenclature of inorganic chemistry , for the oxidation number of cations which can take on several different positive charges . They are also used for naming phases of polymorphic crystals , such as ice . </P> <P> In computing , Roman numerals may be used in identifiers which are limited to alphabetic characters by syntactic constraints of the programming language . In LaTeX , for instance , \ labelitemiii refers to the label of an item in the third level iii of a nested list environment . </P> <P> In military unit designation , Roman numerals are often used to distinguish between units at different levels . This reduces possible confusion , especially when viewing operational or strategic level maps . In particular , army corps are often numbered using Roman numerals ( for example the American XVIII Airborne Corps or the WW2 - era German III Panzerkorps ) with Hindu - Arabic numerals being used for divisions and armies . </P> <P> In music , Roman numerals are used in several contexts : </P> <Ul> <Li> Movements are often numbered using Roman numerals . </Li> <Li> In music theory , the diatonic functions are identified using Roman numerals . ( See : Roman numeral analysis ) </Li> <Li> Individual strings of stringed instruments , such as the violin , are often denoted by Roman numerals , with higher numbers denoting lower strings . </Li> </Ul> <P> In pharmacy , Roman numerals are used in some contexts , including S to denote `` one half '' and N to mean `` nothing '' . ( See the sections below on `` zero '' and `` fractions '' . ) </P> <P> In photography , Roman numerals ( with zero ) are used to denote varying levels of brightness when using the Zone System . </P> <P> In seismology , Roman numerals are used to designate degrees of the Mercalli intensity scale of earthquakes . </P> <P> In tarot , Roman numerals ( with zero ) are used to denote the cards of the Major Arcana . </P> <P> In theology and biblical scholarship , the Septuagint is often referred to as LXX , as this translation of the Old Testament into Greek is named for the legendary number of its translators ( septuaginta being Latin for `` seventy '' ) . </P> <P> In entomology , the broods of the thirteen and seventeen year periodical cicadas are identified by Roman numerals . </P> <P> In advanced mathematics ( including trigonometry , statistics , and calculus ) , when a graph includes negative numbers , its quadrants are named using I , II , III , and IV . These quadrant names signify positive numbers on both axes , negative numbers on the X axis , negative numbers on both axes , and negative numbers on the Y axis , respectively . The use of Roman numerals to designate quadrants avoids confusion , since Hindu - Arabic
