His son , Haley , had been studying Greek mythology in second grade and requested that his father tell him bedtime stories based on Greek myths . When Riordan ran out of myths , his son suggested that he make up new stories using existing mythological characters and new ones . This led Riordan to create the fictional character of Percy Jackson and create the story of how he travels across the United States to recover Zeus 's lightning - bolt . Haley suggested that he should turn that story into a book , and Riordan wrote the book over the next year despite being busy at that time . </P> <P> Leaving his manuscript with his agent and editor for review , Riordan presented the book to a group of 6th , 7th , and 8th graders to read and critique . He gained their approval , and with their help , came up with the name of the book and created the way Percy 's sword works . In 2004 , the book was sold to Miramax Books for enough money for Riordan to quit his job and focus on writing . After it was released on 28 June 2005 , it sold over 1.2 million copies .

To clear his name and save the world from another war between the Olympian gods , Percy sets out to retrieve the lightning bolt from Hades , who is suspected of being the real thief . Thus , Percy , Grover , and Annabeth Chase , a daughter of Athena , start on a journey to the underworld , facing numerous mythological monsters on the way . After confronting an innocent Hades , they learn that their friend Luke Castellan , son of Hermes , is the real thief who stole the bolt to allow Kronos , the defeated king of the Titans , a chance to rise again . </P> <P> The book was adapted into a film by Chris Columbus and 20th Century Fox , under the title Percy Jackson & the Olympians : The Lightning Thief , and was released on February 12 , 2010 . </P> <H3> The Sea of Monsters ( edit ) </H3> Main article : The Sea of Monsters <P> The Sea of Monsters is the second installment in the series , released on April 1 , 2006 . </P> <P> Camp Half - Blood is under attack when Thalia 's tree , which guards the borders of the camp , is poisoned and slowly begins to die .

It is bordered by Tennessee to the north , Georgia to the east , Florida and the Gulf of Mexico to the south , and Mississippi to the west . Alabama is the 30th largest by area and the 24th-most populous of the U.S. states . With a total of 1,500 miles ( 2,400 km ) of inland waterways , Alabama has among the most of any state . </P> <P> Alabama is nicknamed the Yellowhammer State , after the state bird . Alabama is also known as the `` Heart of Dixie '' and the Cotton State . The state tree is the longleaf pine , and the state flower is the camellia . Alabama 's capital is Montgomery . The largest city by population is Birmingham , which has long been the most industrialized city ; the largest city by land area is Huntsville . The oldest city is Mobile , founded by French colonists in 1702 as the capital of French Louisiana . </P> <P> From the American Civil War until World War II , Alabama , like many states in the southern U.S. , suffered economic hardship , in part because of its continued dependence on agriculture . Like other southern states , Alabama legislators disfranchised African Americans and many poor whites at the turn of the century . Despite the growth of major industries and urban centers , white rural interests dominated the state legislature from 1901 to the 1960s ; urban interests and African Americans were markedly under - represented . Following World War II , Alabama grew as the state 's economy changed from one primarily based on agriculture to one with diversified interests . The state economy in the 21st century is based on management , automotive , finance , manufacturing , aerospace , mineral extraction , healthcare , education , retail , and technology . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Etymology </Li> <Li> 2 History <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Pre-European settlement </Li> <Li> 2.2 European settlement </Li> <Li> 2.3 19th century </Li> <Li> 2.4 20th century </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Geography <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Climate </Li> <Li> 3.2 Flora and fauna </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Demographics <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Ancestry </Li> <Li> 4.2 Census - designated areas </Li> <Li> 4.3 Metropolitan areas </Li> <Li> 4.4 Cities </Li> <Li> 4.5 Language </Li> <Li> 4.6 Religion <Ul> <Li> 4.6. 1 Christianity </Li> <Li> 4.6. 2 Other faiths </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4.7 Health </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 Economy <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Largest employers </Li> <Li> 5.2 Agriculture </Li> <Li> 5.3 Industry </Li> <Li> 5.4 Tourism </Li> <Li> 5.5 Healthcare </Li> <Li> 5.6 Banking </Li> <Li> 5.7 Electronics </Li> <Li> 5.8 Construction </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 Law and government <Ul> <Li> 6.1 State government </Li> <Li> 6.2 Taxes </Li> <Li> 6.3 County and local governments </Li> <Li> 6.4 Politics </Li> <Li> 6.5 Elections <Ul> <Li> 6.5. 1 State elections </Li> <Li> 6.5. 2 Local elections </Li> <Li> 6.5. 3 Federal elections </Li> </Ul> </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 7 Education <Ul> <Li> 7.1 Primary and secondary education </Li> <Li> 7.2 Colleges and universities </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 8 Media </Li> <Li> 9 Culture <Ul> <Li> 9.1 Literature </Li> <Li> 9.2 Sports <Ul> <Li> 9.2. 1 College sports </Li> <Li> 9.2. 2 Professional sports </Li> </Ul> </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 10 Transportation <Ul> <Li> 10.1 Aviation </Li> <Li> 10.2 Rail </Li> <Li> 10.3 Roads </Li> <Li> 10.4 Ports </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 11 See also </Li> <Li> 12 References </Li> <Li> 13 Further reading </Li> <Li> 14 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Etymology ( edit ) </H2> One of the entrances to Russell Cave in Jackson County . Charcoal from indigenous camp fires in the cave has been dated as early as 6550 to 6145 BC . <P> The European - American naming of the Alabama River and state was derived from the Alabama people , a Muskogean - speaking tribe whose members lived just below the confluence of the Coosa and Tallapoosa rivers on the upper reaches of the river . In the Alabama language , the word for a person of Alabama lineage is Albaamo ( or variously Albaama or Albàamo in different dialects ; the plural form is Albaamaha ) . </P> <P> The word Alabama is believed to have come from the Alabama language ; a suggestion that the name was borrowed from the Choctaw language is unlikely . The word 's spelling varies significantly among historical sources . The first usage appears in three accounts of the Hernando de Soto expedition of 1540 : Garcilaso de la Vega used Alibamo , while the Knight of Elvas and Rodrigo Ranjel wrote Alibamu and Limamu , respectively , in transliterations of the term . As early as 1702 , the French called the tribe the Alibamon , with French maps identifying the river as Rivière des Alibamons . Other spellings of the name have included Alibamu , Alabamo , Albama , Alebamon , Alibama , Alibamou , Alabamu , Allibamou . </P> <P> Sources disagree on the word 's meaning . Some scholars suggest the word comes from the Choctaw alba ( meaning `` plants '' or `` weeds '' ) and amo ( meaning `` to cut '' , `` to trim '' , or `` to gather '' ) . The meaning may have been `` clearers of the thicket '' or `` herb gatherers '' , referring to clearing land for cultivation or collecting medicinal plants . The state has numerous place names of Native American origin . However , there are no correspondingly similar words in the Alabama language . </P> <P> An 1842 article in the Jacksonville Republican proposed it meant `` Here We Rest . '' This notion was popularized in the 1850s through the writings of Alexander Beaufort Meek . Experts in the Muskogean languages have not found any evidence to support such a translation . </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> Main article : History of Alabama <H3> Pre-european settlement ( edit ) </H3> The Moundville Archaeological Site in Hale County . It was occupied by Native Americans of the Mississippian culture from 1000 to 1450 AD . <P> Indigenous peoples of varying cultures lived in the area for thousands of years before the advent of European colonization . Trade with the northeastern tribes by the Ohio River began during the Burial Mound Period ( 1000 BC -- AD 700 ) and continued until European contact . </P> <P> The agrarian Mississippian culture covered most of the state from 1000 to 1600 AD , with one of its major centers built at what is now the Moundville Archaeological Site in Moundville , Alabama .

thought to have been Ethiopia . The earliest substantiated evidence of either coffee drinking or knowledge of the coffee tree is from the 15th century , in the Sufi monasteries of Yemen . By the 16th century , it had reached the rest of the Middle East , South India ( Coorg ) , Persia , Turkey , Horn of Africa , and northern Africa . Coffee then spread to the Balkans , Italy and to the rest of Europe , to South East Asia and then to America . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Etymology </Li> <Li> 2 First use </Li> <Li> 3 History </Li> <Li> 4 Europe <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Austria </Li> <Li> 4.2 England </Li> <Li> 4.3 France </Li> <Li> 4.4 Germany </Li> <Li> 4.5 Netherlands </Li> <Li> 4.6 Poland </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 Americas </Li> <Li> 6 Asia <Ul> <Li> 6.1 India <Ul> <Li> 6.1. 1 Chikmagalur </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6.2 Japan </Li> <Li> 6.3 South Korea </Li> <Li> 6.4 Indonesia </Li> <Li> 6.5 Philippines </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 7 Production </Li> <Li> 8 See also <Ul> <Li> 8.1 Footnotes </Li> <Li> 8.2 Sources </Li> </Ul> </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Etymology ( edit ) </H2> <P> The word `` coffee '' entered the English language in 1582 via the Dutch koffie , borrowed from the Ottoman Turkish kahve , in turn borrowed from the Arabic qahwah ( قهوة ) . </P> <P> The Arabic word qahwah originally referred to a type of wine , whose etymology is given by Arab lexicographers as deriving from the verb qahā ( قها , `` to lack hunger '' ) in reference to the drink 's reputation as an appetite suppressant . The word qahwah is sometimes alternatively traced to the Arabic quwwa ( `` power , energy '' ) , or to Kaffa , a medieval kingdom in Ethiopia whence the plant was exported to Arabia . These etymologies for qahwah have all been disputed , however . The name qahwah is not used for the berry or plant ( the products of the region ) , which are known in Arabic as bunn and in Oromo as būn . Semitic had a root qhh `` dark color '' , which became a natural designation for the beverage . According to this analysis , the feminine form qahwah ( also meaning `` dark in color , dull ( ing ) , dry , sour '' ) was likely chosen to parallel the feminine khamr ( خمر , `` wine '' ) , and originally meant `` the dark one '' . </P> <H2> First use ( edit ) </H2> <P> The Ethiopian ancestors of today 's Oromo ethnic group were the first to have recognized the energizing effect of the native coffee plant . Studies of genetic diversity have been performed on Coffea arabica varieties , which were found to be of low diversity but with retention of some residual heterozygosity from ancestral materials , and closely related diploid species Coffea canephora and C. liberica ; however , no direct evidence has ever been found indicating where in Africa coffee grew or who among the natives might have used it as a stimulant or known about it there earlier than the seventeenth century . The original domesticated coffee plant is said to have been from Harar , and the native population is thought to be derived from Ethiopia with distinct nearby populations in Sudan and Kenya . </P> <P> Coffee was primarily consumed in the Islamic world where it originated and was directly related to religious practices . </P> <P> There are several legendary accounts of the origin of the drink itself . One account involves the Yemenite Sufi mystic Ghothul Akbar Nooruddin Abu al - Hasan al - Shadhili . When traveling in Ethiopia , the legend goes , he observed birds of unusual vitality , and , upon trying the berries that the birds had been eating , experienced the same vitality . </P> <P> Other accounts attribute the discovery of coffee to Sheik Abou'l Hasan Schadheli 's disciple , Omar . According to the ancient chronicle ( preserved in the Abd - Al - Kadir manuscript ) , Omar , who was known for his ability to cure the sick through prayer , was once exiled from Mocha to a desert cave near Ousab . Starving , Omar chewed berries from nearby shrubbery , but found them to be bitter . He tried roasting the beans to improve the flavor , but they became hard . He then tried boiling them to soften the bean , which resulted in a fragrant brown liquid . Upon drinking the liquid Omar was revitalized and sustained for days . As stories of this `` miracle drug '' reached Mocha , Omar was asked to return and was made a saint . </P> <P> Another account involves a 9th - century Ethiopian goat - herder , Kaldi , who , noticing the energizing effects when his flock nibbled on the bright red berries of a certain bush , chewed on the fruit himself . His exhilaration prompted him to bring the berries to a monk in a nearby monastery . But the monk disapproved of their use and threw them into the fire , from which an enticing aroma billowed , causing other monks to come and investigate . The roasted beans were quickly raked from the embers , ground up , and dissolved in hot water , yielding the world 's first cup of coffee . Since this story is not known to have appeared in writing before 1671 , 800 years after it was supposed to have taken place , it is highly likely to be apocryphal . </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> Syrian Bedouin from a beehive village in Aleppo , Syria , sipping the traditional murra ( bitter ) coffee , 1930 Palestinian women grinding coffee , 1905 <P> The earliest credible evidence of either coffee drinking or knowledge of the coffee tree appears in the middle of the 15th century , in Yemen 's Sufi monasteries . </P> <P> Coffee beans were first exported from Ethiopia to Yemen . Yemeni traders brought coffee back to their homeland and began to cultivate the bean . The word qahwa originally meant wine , and Sufis in Yemen used the beverage as an aid to concentration and as a kind of spiritual intoxication when they chanted the name of God . Sufis used it to keep themselves alert during their nighttime devotions . A translation of Al - Jaziri 's manuscript traces the spread of coffee from Arabia Felix ( the present day Yemen ) northward to Mecca and Medina , and then to the larger cities of Cairo , Damascus , Baghdad , and Constantinople . By 1414 , the beverage was known in Mecca , and in the early 1500s was spreading to the Mameluke Sultanate of Egypt and North Africa from the Yemeni port of Mocha . Associated with Sufism , a myriad of coffee houses grew up in Cairo ( Egypt ) around the religious University of the Azhar . These coffee houses also opened in Syria , especially in the cosmopolitan city of Aleppo , and then in Istanbul , the capital of the Ottoman Empire , in 1554 . In 1511 , it was forbidden for its stimulating effect by conservative , orthodox imams at a theological court in Mecca . However , these bans were to be overturned in 1524 by an order of the Ottoman Turkish Sultan Suleiman I , with Grand Mufti Mehmet Ebussuud el - İmadi issuing a fatwa allowing the consumption of coffee . In Cairo , Egypt , a similar ban was instituted in 1532 , and the coffeehouses and warehouses containing coffee beans were sacked . During the 16th century , it had already reached the rest of the Middle East , the Safavid Empire and the Ottoman Empire . From the Middle East , coffee drinking spread to Italy , then to the rest of Europe , and coffee plants were transported by the Dutch to the East Indies and to the Americas . </P> <P> Similarly , coffee was banned by the Ethiopian Orthodox Church some time before the 18th century . However , in the second half of the 19th century , Ethiopian attitudes softened towards coffee drinking , and its consumption spread rapidly between 1880 and 1886 ; according to Richard Pankhurst , `` this was largely due to Emperor Menilek , who himself drank it , and to Abuna Matewos who did much to dispel the belief of the clergy that it was a Muslim drink . '' </P> <P> The earliest mention of coffee noted by the literary coffee merchant Philippe Sylvestre Dufour is a reference to bunchum in the works of the 10th century CE Persian physician Muhammad ibn Zakariya al - Razi , known as Rhazes in the West , but more definite information on the preparation of a beverage from the roasted coffee berries dates from several centuries later . One of the most important of the early writers on coffee was Abd al - Qadir al - Jaziri , who in 1587 compiled a work tracing the history and legal controversies of coffee entitled Umdat al safwa fi hill al - qahwa عمدة الصفوة في حل القهوة . He reported that one Sheikh , Jamal - al - Din al - Dhabhani ( d . 1470 ) , mufti of Aden , was the first to adopt the use of coffee ( circa 1454 ) . </P> <P> He found that among its properties was that it drove away fatigue and lethargy , and brought to the body a certain sprightliness and vigour . </P> <H2> Europe ( edit ) </H2> Dutch engraving of Mocha in 1692 <P> Coffee was first introduced to Europe on the island of Malta in the 16th century , according to the TV documentary Madwarna . It was introduced there through slavery . Turkish Muslim slaves had been imprisoned by the Knights of St John in 1565 -- the year of the Great Siege of Malta , and they used to make their traditional beverage . Domenico Magri mentioned in his work Virtu del Kafé , `` Turks , most skilful makers of this concoction . '' Also the German traveller Gustav Sommerfeldt in 1663 wrote `` the ability and industriousness with which the Turkish prisoners earn some money , especially by preparing coffee , a powder resembling snuff tobacco , with water and sugar . '' Coffee was a popular beverage in Maltese high society -- many coffee shops opened . </P> <P> Coffee was also noted in Aleppo by the German physician botanist Leonhard Rauwolf , the first European to mention it , as chaube , in 1573 ; Rauwolf was closely followed by descriptions from other European travellers . </P> <P> The vibrant trade between the Republic of Venice and the Muslims in North Africa , Egypt , and the East brought a large variety of African goods , including coffee , to this leading European port . Venetian merchants introduced coffee - drinking to the wealthy in Venice , charging them heavily for the beverage . In this way , coffee was introduced to the mainland of Europe . In 1591 Venetian botanist - physician Prospero Alpini became the first to publish a description of the coffee plant in Europe . The first European coffee house apart from those in the Ottoman Empire and in Malta was opened in Venice in 1645 . </P> <H3> Austria ( edit ) </H3> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> This section does not cite any sources .

The main shock epicenter occurred in the Forbidden Plateau area northwest of Courtenay . While most of the large earthquakes in the Vancouver area occur at tectonic plate boundaries , the 1946 Vancouver Island earthquake was a crustal event . Shaking was felt from Portland , Oregon to Prince Rupert , British Columbia . This is one of the most damaging earthquakes in the history of British Columbia , but damage was restricted because there were no heavily populated areas near the epicentre , where severe shaking occurred . </P> <P> This earthquake is Canada 's largest historic onshore earthquake . However , the greatest earthquake in Canadian history recorded by seismometers was the 1949 Queen Charlotte earthquake , an interplate earthquake that occurred on the ocean bottom just off the rugged coast of Graham Island , which reached magnitude 8.1 on the moment magnitude scale . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Background and tectonics </Li> <Li> 2 Damage and casualties </Li> <Li> 3 See also </Li> <Li> 4 References </Li> <Li> 5 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Background and tectonics ( edit ) </H2> <P> The tectonics that caused the 1946 Vancouver Island earthquake are poorly known . No surface expression of the offset was noticed , most likely because the epicentre area is very remote and densely forested . A comprehensive examination and computer interpretation of seismic data from over 50 stations has shown that a possible explanation of the earthquake includes a strike - slip fault corresponding to the lengthy axis of Vancouver Island , known as the Beaufort Range Fault . A fault running across Vancouver Island , corresponding to the projection of the underwater Nootka Fault on the British Columbia Coast , is also a possibility but an unlikely one because the earthquake showed no evidence of offsets along a series of highways that follows much of the eastern coastline of Vancouver Island , called Island Highway , and other roads between Courtenay and Campbell River . The estimated depth of the earthquake places it within the continental crust , not at the margin with the Cascadia subduction zone , and certainly not inside the subduction zone itself . Specifically , the earthquake 's epicentre was positioned somewhere in the Forbidden Plateau region , in central Vancouver Island . </P> <H2> Damage and casualties ( edit ) </H2> House failure in Comox <P> Though very destructive , the earthquake caused only two deaths : Jacob L. Kingston , aged 69 , and Daniel Fidler , who was 50 . Kingston suffered a heart attack , while Fidler drowned when his dinghy was swamped by a wave . </P> <P> In Vancouver , damage consisted of lofty buildings oscillating violently , and a piece of masonry fell from the local railway station . In addition , within the city , at least one gas line cracked and several power outages occurred . Fires broke out in several chimneys , and at least one swing - span bridge was fractured by the shaking . In the Hotel Vancouver , which housed the elderly and caught on fire , more than 500 war veterans ' families fled the flames . One writer , George Finley , stated that the Lions ' Gate Bridge `` swayed like a leaf '' , coinciding with a `` low , rumbling sound , like a deep growl . '' </P> Damage to Bank of Montreal in Port Alberni . <P> The 1946 Vancouver Island earthquake demolished 75 % of the chimneys in the communities of Cumberland , Union Bay , and Courtenay and caused extensive damage in Comox , Port Alberni , and Powell River , on the eastern side of the Strait of Georgia . Some chimneys were fractured in Victoria , and people in Victoria and Vancouver experienced great fright , with some seen fleeing into the streets . </P> <P> Landslides created by the earthquake were common throughout Vancouver Island . Land subsidence resulted from the earthquake , most commonly around shorelines on the Strait of Georgia . This included the bottom of Deep Bay which sank between 2.7 m ( 9 ft ) and 25.6 m ( 84 ft ) . These measurements were reported by the Canadian Hydrographic Service . Also , a 3 - metre ( 9.8 ft ) ground shift occurred on Read Island . Ships throughout the region were affected , and those on board them during the earthquake described it as similar to having run over a sand bar or striking a rock . Undersea power lines were destroyed in the long narrow Alberni Inlet and near the city of Powell River . All lighthouse keepers in the surrounding area felt the earthquake , and experienced damage including shattered windows and smashed dishes . A tsunami struck the west coast of Texada Island with two waves , the first being 2 metres ( 6 ft 7 in ) high and the second 1 metre ( 3 ft 3 in ) high . The earthquake caused a landslide near Mount Colonel Foster . One fortunate occurrence allowed researchers afterward to review the effects of the earthquake : an aerial photographic survey of Vancouver Island had commenced in 1946 , soon after the earthquake , and these photographs were eventually studied by a geoscientist in the late 1970s . </P> <P> South of the Canada -- United States border in Washington State , some chimneys fell at Eastsound on Orcas Island and a concrete mill was damaged at Port Angeles . In Seattle , some damage occurred on upper floors of tall buildings , and one bridge was damaged . The shock was strongly felt at Bellingham , Olympia , Raymond , and Tacoma . The earthquake was powerful enough to knock the needle off a seismograph at the University of Washington , and was sustained for about a minute even in Seattle . </P> <P> The earthquake caused significant movement among structures , moving one 300 - foot ( 91 m ) wall about 35 feet ( 11 m ) and caused one home to shift for 5 feet ( 1.5 m ) off its foundation . The total affected area in Canada and the United States was about 260,000 km ( 100,000 sq mi ) . </P> <H2> See also ( edit ) </H2> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> Wikimedia Commons has media related to 1946 Vancouver Island earthquake . </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Ul> <Li> List of deadly earthquakes since 1900 </Li> <Li> List of earthquakes in 1946 </Li> <Li> List of earthquakes in Canada </Li> <Li> List of earthquakes in the United States </Li> </Ul> <H2> References ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> Jump up ^ Engdahl , E.R. ; Vallaseñor , A.

announced it would be expanding into the United Kingdom , with an unannounced number of locations to be built . </P> <P> Revenue in 2015 for RBI was US $ 4.0522 billion with a rise to $4.15 billion in 2016 . Tim Hortons had 683 U.S. locations by the end of 2016 , and total annual revenue of US $3.00 billion . </P> <P> In 2018 , Tim Hortons became the subject of controversy after the raise of minimum wage in Ontario from $11.60 to $14.00 an hour . Some Tim Hortons franchises in Ontario indicated that employee benefits such as paid breaks and health plan contributions would be cut . In one case , owners posted a memo encouraging employees to contact the Ontario Premier , Kathleen Wynne , and indicate that they `` will not vote Liberal in the coming Ontario election in June 2018 . '' Wynne responded by saying `` I 'm happy to talk to any business owner about the minimum wage but taking it out on employees is not fair and not acceptable . '' Around 50 demonstrations were held across Canada , including 38 in Ontario , in response to the benefit cuts . </P> <P> The minimum wage controversy hurt the chain 's reputation ; usually placing in the top 10 of the Leger research poll for the top 10 companies or brands in Canada , Tim Hortons took a massive hit , dropping from 4th place in 2017 , to 50 in 2018 . </P> <P> In April 2018 , Tim Hortons announced that they would be moving their head office along with its 400 employees to the Exchange Tower in Downtown Toronto . </P> <H2> Locations ( edit ) </H2> A drive - thru - only Tim Hortons location in Moncton , New Brunswick <P> Tim Hortons was originally concentrated in Ontario and Atlantic Canada . In recent years , however , the chain has greatly expanded its presence into Quebec and western Canada . Its location in Iqaluit , Nunavut , is the northernmost store as of 2010 . </P> <P> Tim Hortons ' international presence includes outlets in the United States and one that was on a military base outside Kandahar , Afghanistan , although this latter outlet was principally intended for Canadian Armed Forces and allied military personnel . Two more outlets are located in military bases at Fort Knox , Kentucky , and Naval Station Norfolk , Virginia . TDL Group recorded $1.48 billion in sales in 2005 and Tim Hortons ' products have become available in Ireland and Scotland at some SPAR convenience stores as of 2006 and Tesco supermarkets . Tim Hortons ' other international expansions include a small outlet at the Dublin Zoo . Tim Hortons also made a deal with the Spar convenience store chain in the UK and Ireland , resulting in Tim Hortons coffee and doughnuts being sold at small self - service counters in 50 Spar stores as of April 30 , 2007 . It also has a partnership with Tops Markets in the United States . </P> <P> In March 2010 , Tim Hortons announced further expansion on both sides of the Canada -- US border to be completed by 2013 . The plan calls for 600 new stores in Canada ( primarily in Quebec and Western Canada but also including smaller communities ) and 300 new stores in the US ( primarily in its existing markets of Michigan , New York , and Ohio ) . It also for expansion into such non-standard store locations as hospitals , universities , and airports , as well as extending its co-branding initiative with US ice cream chain Cold Stone Creamery , which began in 2009 , to cover 60 Canadian stores and 25 -- 35 new and existing US stores . It will also include testing a new café / bake shop concept in at least 10 existing US locations , including `` enhanced finishes , fixtures , and seating areas '' as well as an expansion of menu offerings . </P> <P> In October 2010 , Tim Hortons confirmed that it is planning to open three kiosks at NorthMart stores in Iqaluit , Nunavut , in November 2010 , as part of a joint venture with The North West Company , the owners of NorthMart . This opening will make Tim Hortons a fully Canadian operation with stores in every province and territory ; the new branch will become its northernmost . The Tim Hortons logo in these kiosks will feature Inuktitut characters . According to Nick Javor , senior vice-president of corporate affairs at Tim Hortons , `` You could say it 's overdue . If we can be in Kandahar , why ca n't we be in Iqaluit ? '' In December 2011 , Tim Hortons opened its 4000th restaurant . In 2012 , Tim Hortons Inc. recorded its total revenues at $3.12 billion ( CDN ) . As of 2012 the company had expanded across Canada . As of June 30 , 2013 , Tim Hortons has 4,304 restaurants , including 3,802 in Canada , 807 in the United States , 29 in the Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Persian Gulf . Tim Hortons reportedly had plans by 2013 plans to enter the large Indian market , which the company denied . </P> <P> Tim Hortons officially opened its first Southeast Asian store in Manila , Philippines on February 28 , 2017 . </P> <H3> United States ( edit ) </H3> Tim Hortons United States Logo where it is known as Tim Hortons Cafe & Bake Shop A Tim Hortons store at Penn Station in New York City in 2010 . <P> Initially , the US stores were the result of natural expansion in Canada -- US border areas ( e.g. , stores in Maine and the Buffalo , New York area where Horton played from 1972 to 1974 as a member of the Buffalo Sabres ) . The first United States locations were opened in Deerfield Beach , Florida and Pompano Beach , Florida in 1981 , but they proved unsuccessful and were closed . In 1985 , the chain returned to the US with a location on Niagara Falls Boulevard in the Buffalo suburb of Amherst , New York . Starting in the mid-1990s , however , the chain began expanding in the US by acquiring former locations from fast food chains . In 1996 and 1997 , thirty - seven former Rax Restaurants locations in Ohio , Kentucky , and West Virginia were bought by Wendy 's International Inc. ; 30 of these were converted to Tim Hortons , while the others became Wendy 's franchise locations . Thirty - five closed Hardee 's stores in the Detroit area were also purchased with the intention of being converted . By 2004 , the chain had also acquired 42 Bess Eaton coffee and doughnut restaurants situated in southern New England . Several combination Wendy 's / Tim Hortons units were opened in the US ; both in the `` traditional '' markets of Maine and Buffalo , where there were well over 180 locations as of 2011 , and in the markets entered through acquisition . </P> <P> In October 2008 , Tim Hortons announced a plan to add 82 locations in Tops Markets stores in the United States . </P> <P> On July 13 , 2009 , Tim Hortons opened stores in New York City at former Dunkin ' Donuts locations operated by the Riese Organization . One of the stores is located at Madison Square Garden , where Horton played as a member of the New York Rangers from 1969 to 1971 . In 2009 , Tim Hortons opened its first store in Albany , NY , with more stores on the way . Tim Hortons continued its southward expansion in the US by opening a restaurant at Naval Station Norfolk , Norfolk , Virginia , in mid-December 2009 . In November 2010 , Tim Hortons announced it was closing 36 stores in the northeastern United States due to high competition with New England - based Dunkin ' Donuts and Au Bon Pain . The stores , which made less than half the average company per - store sales , were concentrated heavily in the Providence , Rhode Island , and Hartford , Connecticut , areas , the former of which also has a concentration of stores from the locally - competing Honey Dew Donuts chain , itself with some 150 outlets in Rhode Island and Southeastern Massachusetts . In the announcement , the chain stated that it will concentrate its efforts on its core markets such as western Canada . In the same statement , the company announced the sale of its portion of distribution company Maidstone Bakeries to Tim Hortons ' European partners . It will use the C $ 400 million generated by the sale for a stock buyback . </P> <P> In 2010 , Tim Hortons opened two kiosks at Consol Energy Center ( now known as PPG Paints Arena ) in Pittsburgh , partly as a test to eventual expansion into Pittsburgh ( their closest locations at that point were in the Wheeling , West Virginia / Steubenville , Ohio area ) as well as Pittsburgh Penguins star Sidney Crosby having a longtime sponsorship with the chain as well . In addition , Horton played for the Maple Leafs American Hockey League affiliate , the Pittsburgh Hornets , earlier in his career as well as the Penguins for one season in 1971 -- 72 . Aramark , which operated the kiosks , closed them in 2012 , however Tim Hortons proceeded to open full - service locations in Pittsburgh and surrounding areas in July 2012 . At the time of the entry into Pittsburgh , of the four NHL cities Horton played in ( Buffalo , New York City , Toronto , and Pittsburgh ) , Pittsburgh was the only one without a Tim Hortons location , and was also where Horton met his future wife , Lori . </P> <P> 2011 saw Tim Hortons aggressively expanding into the Grand Rapids , Michigan region . In 2012 , Tim Hortons began advertising in the Youngstown , Ohio area in anticipation of an eventual expansion into the Mahoning Valley . The closest location at the time was in Calcutta , Ohio , about 50 miles south of Youngstown . The chain entered the area in July 2012 with the opening of a location in Hermitage , Pennsylvania . As of 2012 the company had expanded across the US states of Connecticut , Indiana , Kentucky , Maine , Massachusetts , Michigan , New York , Ohio , Pennsylvania , Rhode Island , and West Virginia . The first expansion into Indiana was the opening of a location in Richmond , Indiana 's east central side . On January 7 , 2014 , Tim Hortons opened a kiosk in the Gila River Arena ( where the Arizona Coyotes of the NHL play ) in Glendale , Arizona . On March 5 , 2014 , The Arizona Coyotes announced that as of March 10 , 2014 , the Tim Hortons stand would be open to the public from 9 : 00 to 15 : 00 , seven days a week . This location is the first Tim Hortons in Arizona . A flagship Tim Hortons location within the Buffalo area opened across from the KeyBank Center ( then First Niagara Center ) at the HarborCenter complex on October 29 , 2014 . The location honours the life and legacy of Tim Horton . The chain also planned to open 40 outlets in the St. Louis , Missouri area starting in 2015 , first selling coffee and hot chocolate at Scottrade Center during St. Louis Blues games , followed by the opening of a full - service store in the suburb of Maplewood and an `` express '' location inside a Frontenac bank building . </P> <P> 2016 saw Tim Hortons expand to Minnesota with a store inside Mall of America </P> <H3> Middle east ( edit ) </H3> <P> Through franchise partnership with Dubai

Harrison wrote the song following his temporary departure from the Beatles in January 1969 , during the troubled Get Back sessions that resulted in their Let It Be album and film . The lyrics reflect his frustration with the atmosphere in the group at that time -- namely , Paul McCartney 's over-assertiveness and criticism of his guitar playing , John Lennon 's lack of engagement with the project and dismissal of Harrison as a songwriter , and Yoko Ono 's constant involvement in the band 's activities . Music critics and biographers recognise the song as Harrison 's statement of personal and artistic freedom from the Beatles . Its creation contrasted sharply with his rewarding collaborations outside the group in the months before the Get Back project , particularly with Bob Dylan and the Band in upstate New York . </P> <P> Recorded shortly after the Beatles ' break - up in 1970 , `` Wah - Wah '' was the first track taped for All Things Must Pass . The recording features a dense production treatment from Phil Spector and backing from a large cast of musicians including Eric Clapton , Ringo Starr , Billy Preston , Bobby Keys and the band Badfinger . On release , Rolling Stone magazine described it as `` a grand cacophony of sound in which horns sound like guitars and vice versa '' . While several reviewers find the heavy production appropriate for the song , Harrison considered the recording overproduced and the sound too cluttered . </P> <P> `` Wah - Wah '' was the first song Harrison played live as a solo artist when he performed it as his opener for the Western - music portion of the Concert for Bangladesh , in August 1971 . Viewed by some commentators as superior to the studio recording , this version re-created Spector 's Wall of Sound treatment in a live setting , using many of the participants from the 1970 album sessions . At the Concert for George in November 2002 , a year after Harrison 's death , `` Wah - Wah '' was performed by an all - star band that included Clapton , Jeff Lynne , Starr and McCartney . Ocean Colour Scene , Buffalo Tom , Beck and the Tedeschi Trucks Band are among the other artists who have covered the song . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Background <Ul> <Li> 1.1 October -- December 1968 US visit </Li> <Li> 1.2 January 1969 at Twickenham Film Studios </Li> <Li> 1.3 Harrison 's return to the Beatles </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Composition </Li> <Li> 3 Recording </Li> <Li> 4 Release </Li> <Li> 5 Reception and legacy </Li> <Li> 6 Live version </Li> <Li> 7 Cover versions </Li> <Li> 8 Personnel </Li> <Li> 9 Notes </Li> <Li> 10 References </Li> <Li> 11 Sources </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Background ( edit ) </H2> <H3> October -- December 1968 US visit ( edit ) </H3> <P> When discussing the song `` Wah - Wah '' and George Harrison 's temporary departure from the Beatles in January 1969 , several commentators note the importance of his recent two - month visit to America , which followed the completion of the band 's 1968 double album The Beatles , commonly known as the White Album . In Los Angeles , where he was producing a Jackie Lomax solo album for the Beatles ' Apple record label , Harrison directed top session players such as Hal Blaine and Larry Knechtel , and met two American musicians with whom he would soon collaborate in London , Delaney Bramlett and Leon Russell . Later in the US trip , Harrison stayed in upstate New York , where he established a musical bond with Bob Dylan and thrived among what author Simon Leng calls the `` group ethic and camaraderie '' of the Band . Throughout this period , Harrison continued to bloom as a songwriter , having contributed four songs to The Beatles that , in the words of author Nicholas Schaffner , `` firmly established him as a contender '' beside bandmates John Lennon and Paul McCartney . In addition , he had recently co-written Cream 's single `` Badge '' with Eric Clapton , as well as collaborating with Dylan in Bearsville . </P> <H3> January 1969 at Twickenham film Studios ( edit ) </H3> Part of Twickenham Film Studios , in south - west London <P> Harrison later recalled his two months in the United States as having been `` such a good time '' , yet `` the moment I got back with the Beatles ( for their Get Back film project ) , it was just too difficult '' . These difficulties included having to endure McCartney 's habit of dictating how the others should play their instruments and Lennon 's increasing withdrawal from the band and emotional dependence on his ever - present partner , Yoko Ono . The couple had recently descended into heroin addiction , leaving Lennon , in author Peter Doggett 's words , `` emotionally removed and artistically bankrupt '' . In their study of the Get Back project , Doug Sulpy and Ray Schweighardt write that , as another frustration for Harrison , Lennon and McCartney regularly overlooked his compositions , even when they were `` far better than their own '' . </P> <P> On 6 January 1969 , the band 's third day at Twickenham Film Studios , in south - west London , an argument was captured on film where McCartney criticised Harrison 's guitar playing on the song `` Two of Us '' . A resigned Harrison told him : `` I 'll play what you want me to play , or I wo n't play at all if you do n't want me to play . '' With the sessions being recorded by film director Michael Lindsay - Hogg , tapes reveal Beatles associates Neil Aspinall and George Martin sympathising with Harrison 's position , recognising that McCartney and Lennon `` do n't offer him enough freedom within their compositions '' . Ringo Starr , who had quit the band briefly during the White Album sessions , partly as a result of McCartney 's hectoring of his drumming , recalled of Harrison 's refusal to be `` dominated '' by McCartney any longer : `` Paul ( typically ) wanted to point out the solo to George , who would say , ' Look , I 'm a guitarist . I 'll play the solo . ' And he always did , he always played fine solos . '' </P> I just got so fed up with the bad vibes -- and that arguments with Paul were getting put in the film . I did n't care if it was the Beatles , I was getting out . <P> -- George Harrison to Musician magazine , November 1987 </P> <P> Over the first three days at Twickenham , Harrison had presented new compositions such as `` All Things Must Pass '' , `` Let It Down '' and `` Hear Me Lord '' for consideration ; these and other `` numerous beautiful songs '' , music journalist Martin O'Gorman writes , `` received derision and disinterest from Lennon or heavy - handed interference from McCartney '' . On 8 January , Harrison debuted `` I Me Mine '' , a song inspired by the bickering and negativity within the band . It was met with ridicule by Lennon and an argument ensued between the two musicians , during which Lennon dismissed Harrison 's abilities as a songwriter . According to Sulpy and Schweighardt , Lennon 's resentment was most likely a reaction to Harrison 's productivity throughout the sessions , since he himself was `` unable to write a decent new song '' . In addition , Harrison had been alone in voicing his objections to Ono 's presence , telling the couple how , in Lennon 's later recollection , `` Dylan and a few people said she 's got a lousy name in New York '' . </P> <P> On Friday , 10 January , a more severe argument took place in which Harrison berated Lennon for contributing nothing positive to the rehearsals . During the lunch break , Harrison walked out of the Beatles , saying that the others should advertise in the NME for his replacement . He then drove to his home , Kinfauns , in Surrey , and wrote `` Wah - Wah '' that same afternoon . Despite the animosity between himself and Lennon on the day he quit the group , Harrison later confirmed a suggestion made by music journalist Timothy White that , just like Lennon 's `` How Do You Sleep ? '' and `` Crippled Inside '' , the song was a `` swipe '' at McCartney . </P> <H3> Harrison 's return to the Beatles ( edit ) </H3> It 's a festering wound ... It 's only this year that ( George ) has realised who he is . And all the fucking shit we 've done to him . <P> -- Lennon to McCartney , discussing Harrison 's departure from the Beatles </P> <P> Harrison 's diary records that Lennon and Ono `` diverted '' him at home over breakfast the following morning , but even after a subsequent band meeting at Starr 's house , author Barry Miles writes , their `` feud '' remained `` intractable '' . At the meeting , much to Harrison 's annoyance , Lennon once more chose to have Ono speak on his behalf . Harrison then went to his parents

The group travel in a van named the Mystery Machine , solving mysteries involving several local legends ; in doing so , they discover that the perpetrator is almost invariably a disguised person who seeks to exploit the legend for personal gain . </P> <P> Scooby - Doo , Where Are You ! was the first incarnation of what would eventually become a long - running media franchise , which primarily consists of subsequent animated series , several films , and related merchandise . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Origin </Li> <Li> 2 Writing </Li> <Li> 3 Episodes </Li> <Li> 4 Music </Li> <Li> 5 Cast </Li> <Li> 6 Release and reception </Li> <Li> 7 Home media </Li> <Li> 8 See also </Li> <Li> 9 References </Li> <Li> 10 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Origin ( edit ) </H2> Further information : Scooby - Doo <P> Scooby Doo , Where Are You ! was the result of CBS and Hanna - Barbera 's plans to create a non-violent Saturday morning program that would appease the parent watch groups that had protested the superhero - based programs of the mid-1960s . Originally titled Mysteries Five , and later Who 's S-S - Scared ? , Scooby Doo , Where Are You ! underwent a number of changes from script to screen ( the most significant being the downplaying of the musical group angle borrowed from The Archie Show ) . However , the basic concept -- four teenagers ( Fred , Daphne , Velma , and Shaggy ) and a cowardly , clumsy Great Dane ( Scooby - Doo ) solving supernatural - related mysteries -- was always in place . </P> <H2> Writing ( edit ) </H2> <P> Scooby - Doo creators Joe Ruby and Ken Spears served as the story supervisors on the series . Ruby , Spears , and Bill Lutz wrote all of the scripts for the seventeen first - season episodes , while Lutz , Larz Bourne , and Tom Dagenais wrote the eight second - season episodes with Ruby and Spears as story editors . The plot varied little from episode to episode . The main concept was as follows : </P> <Ol> <Li> The gang is driving in the Mystery Machine , returning from or going to a regular teenage function , when their van develops engine trouble or breaks down for any of a variety of reasons ( overheating , flat tire , out of gas , etc . ) , in the immediate vicinity of a large , mostly vacated property ( ski lodge , hotel , factory , mansion , cruise ship , etc . ) . </Li> <Li> Their ( unintended ) destination turns out to be suffering from a monster problem ( ghosts , Yetis , vampires , witches , etc . ) . The gang volunteers to investigate the case . </Li> <Li> The gang splits up to cover more ground , with Fred and Velma finding clues , Daphne finding danger , and Shaggy and Scooby finding food , fun , and the ghost / monster , who chases them . Scooby and Shaggy love to eat , including dog treats called Scooby Snacks which are a favorite of both the dog and the teenage boy . </Li> <Li> Eventually , enough clues are found to convince the gang that the ghost / monster is a fake , and a trap is set ( usually by Fred ) to capture it ; or , they may occasionally call the local sheriff , only to get stopped by the villain half - way . </Li> <Li> If a trap is used , it may or may not work ( more often than not , Scooby - Doo and / or Shaggy falls into the trap and / or they unwittingly catch the monster another way ) . Invariably , the ghost / monster is apprehended and unmasked . The person in the ghost or monster suit turns out to be an apparently blameless authority figure or otherwise innocuous local who is using the disguise to cover up something such as a crime or a scam . </Li> <Li> After giving the parting shot of `` And I would have gotten away with it too , if it were n't for you meddling kids '' , the offender is then taken away to jail , and the gang is allowed to continue on the way to their destination . </Li> </Ol> <H2> Episodes ( edit ) </H2> Main article : List of Scooby - Doo , Where Are You ! episodes <H2> Music ( edit ) </H2> <P> The second season featured bubblegum `` chase scene '' songs produced by La La Productions ( which had originally been contracted to create the music for Josie and the Pussycats , the first of many animated series made from the same mold as Scooby - Doo , Where Are You ! ) . These songs were written by Danny Janssen and Austin Roberts , and were performed by Roberts , who also made a new recording of the Scooby Doo , Where Are You ! theme song for the second season . The series ' theme song has been covered by several subsequent artists , including Matthew Sweet for the 1995 TV special and album Saturday Morning : Cartoons ' Greatest Hits ; Third Eye Blind for the 1998 film Scooby - Doo on Zombie Island ; Billy Ray Cyrus for Scooby - Doo ! and the Witch 's Ghost ( 1999 ) ; Jennifer Love Hewitt for Scooby - Doo and the Alien Invaders ( 2000 ) ; the B - 52 's ( Cindy , Kate and Fred ) for Scooby - Doo and the Cyber Chase ( 2001 ) ; MxPx for the live - action Scooby - Doo film ( 2002 ) ; and Krystal Harris for Scooby - Doo ! and the Legend of the Vampire ( 2003 ) . </P> <P> Scooby - Doo , Where Are You ! utilized a laugh track , a common feature in most animated TV series until the late 1970s . It was removed for syndication in the 1980s . Following Turner 's purchase of Hanna - Barbera and its networks ' ( TBS , TNT and Cartoon Network ) initial broadcast of the series in 1994 , the laugh track was reinstated in 1997 . </P> <H2> Cast ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> Don Messick as Scooby - Doo </Li> <Li> Casey Kasem as Norville `` Shaggy '' Rogers </Li> <Li> Frank Welker as Fred Jones </Li> <Li> Stefanianna Christopherson as Daphne Blake ( season 1 ) </Li> <Li> Heather North as Daphne Blake ( seasons 2 and 3 ) </Li> <Li> Nicole Jaffe as Velma Dinkley ( seasons 1 and 2 ) </Li> <Li> Pat Stevens as Velma Dinkley ( season 3 ) </Li> </Ul> <H2> Release and reception ( edit ) </H2> <P> Scooby Doo , Where Are You ! was a hit for Hanna - Barbera and CBS , which led Hanna - Barbera to eventually create series with similar concepts on ABC , NBC , and CBS , including , Josie and the Pussycats , The Pebbles and Bamm - Bamm Show , The Pebbles , Dino and Bamm - Bamm segments on The Flintstone Comedy Show , The Funky Phantom , Speed Buggy , Jeannie , Jabberjaw , The Amazing Chan and the Chan Clan , Inch High Private Eye , Goober and the Ghost Chasers , Clue Club , Captain Caveman and the Teen Angels , Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kids , and The New Shmoo . </P> <P> In 2005 , Scooby Doo , Where Are You ! came 49th in Channel 4 's 100 Greatest Cartoons , in the UK , and was more recently voted the 8th greatest Kids ' TV Show by viewers of the same channel .

The author of the tune is unknown and it may originate in plainchant , but a 1619 attribution to John Bull is sometimes made . </P> <P> It is the national anthem of the United Kingdom and one of two national anthems used by New Zealand since 1977 , as well as for several of the UK 's territories that have their own additional local anthem . It is also the royal anthem -- played specifically in the presence of the monarch -- of all the aforementioned countries , as well as Australia ( since 1984 ) , Canada ( since 1980 ) , Barbados and Tuvalu . In countries not previously part of the British Empire , the tune of `` God Save the Queen '' has provided the basis for various patriotic songs , though still generally connected with royal ceremony . In the United States , the melody is used for the patriotic song `` My Country , ' Tis of Thee '' . The melody is also used for the national anthem of Liechtenstein , `` Oben am jungen Rhein '' . </P> <P> Beyond its first verse , which is consistent , `` God Save the Queen / King '' has many historic and extant versions . Since its first publication , different verses have been added and taken away and , even today , different publications include various selections of verses in various orders . In general , only one verse is sung . Sometimes two verses are sung , and on rare occasions , three . </P> <P> The sovereign and her or his spouse are saluted with the entire anthem , while other members of the Royal Family who are entitled to royal salute ( such as the Prince of Wales ) receive just the first six bars . The first six bars also form all or part of the Vice Regal Salute in some Commonwealth realms outside the UK ( e.g. , in Canada , governors general and lieutenant governors at official events are saluted with the first six bars of `` God Save the Queen '' followed by the first four and last four bars of `` O Canada '' ) , as well as the salute given to governors of British overseas territories . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Original Lyrics </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Use in the United Kingdom <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Lyrics in the UK <Ul> <Li> 2.1. 1 Standard version in the United Kingdom </Li> <Li> 2.1. 2 Standard version of the music </Li> <Li> 2.1. 3 Alternative British versions <Ul> <Li> 2.1. 3.1 William Hickson 's alternative version </Li> <Li> 2.1. 3.2 Official peace version </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2.1. 4 Historic alternative verses </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2.2 Performance in the UK </Li> <Li> 2.3 Other British anthems </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Use in other Commonwealth countries <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Australia </Li> <Li> 3.2 Canada <Ul> <Li> 3.2. 1 Lyrics in Canada </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3.3 New Zealand </Li> <Li> 3.4 Rhodesia </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Use elsewhere </Li> <Li> 5 Musical adaptations <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Classical composers </Li> <Li> 5.2 Rock adaptations </Li> <Li> 5.3 Computer music </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 Reception </Li> <Li> 7 Notes </Li> <Li> 8 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <P> In The Oxford Companion to Music , Percy Scholes points out the similarities to an early plainsong melody , although the rhythm is very distinctly that of a galliard , and he gives examples of several such dance tunes that bear a striking resemblance to `` God Save the King / Queen '' . Scholes quotes a keyboard piece by John Bull ( 1619 ) which has some similarities to the modern tune , depending on the placing of accidentals which at that time were unwritten in certain cases and left to the discretion of the player ( see musica ficta ) . He also points to several pieces by Henry Purcell , one of which includes the opening notes of the modern tune , set to the words `` God Save the King '' . Nineteenth - century scholars and commentators mention the widespread belief that an old Scots carol , `` Remember O Thou Man '' was the source of the tune . </P> <P> The first published version of what is almost the present tune appeared in 1744 in Thesaurus Musicus . The 1744 version of the song was popularised in Scotland and England the following year , with the landing of Charles Edward Stuart and was published in The Gentleman 's Magazine ( see illustration above ) . This manuscript has the tune depart from that which is used today at several points , one as early as the first bar , but is otherwise clearly a strong relative of the contemporary anthem . It was recorded as being sung in London theatres in 1745 , with , for example , Thomas Arne writing a setting of the tune for the Drury Lane Theatre . </P> <P> Scholes ' analysis includes mention of `` untenable '' and `` doubtful '' claims , as well as `` an American misattribution '' . Some of these are : </P> <Ul> <Li> The French Marquise de Créquy wrote in her book `` Souvenirs '' , that the tune Grand Dieu Sauve Le Roi , was written by Jean - Baptiste Lully in gratitude for the survival by Louis XIV of an anal fistula operation . The surgical knife that was purpose - built for the occasion is on display in the Musée d'histoire de la médecine . Lully set words by Marie de Brinon to music , and Créquy claims the tune was later plagiarised by Handel . Translated in Latin under the name Domine , Salvum Fac Regem , it became the French anthem until 1792 . After the Battle of Culloden , the Hanover dynasty supposedly then adopted this melody as the British anthem . </Li> <Li> James Oswald : He is a possible author of the Thesaurus Musicus , so may have played a part in the history of the song , but is not a strong enough candidate to be cited as the composer of the tune . </Li> <Li> Dr Henry Carey : Scholes refutes this attribution , first on the grounds that Carey himself never made such a claim . Second , when the claim was made by Carey 's son ( as late as 1795 ) , it was accompanied by a request for a pension from the British Government on that score . Third , the younger Carey claimed that his father had written parts of it in 1745 , even though the older Carey had died in 1743 . It has also been claimed that the work was first publicly performed by Carey during a dinner in 1740 in honour of Admiral Edward `` Grog '' Vernon , who had captured the Spanish harbour of Porto Bello ( then in Gran Colombia , now in Panamá ) during the War of Jenkins ' Ear . </Li> </Ul> <P> Scholes recommends the attribution `` traditional '' or `` traditional ; earliest known version by John Bull ( 1562 -- 1628 ) '' . The English Hymnal ( musical editor Ralph Vaughan Williams ) gives no attribution , stating merely `` 17th or 18th cent . '' </P> <H3> Original lyrics ( edit ) </H3> <P> God save great George our king God save our noble king , God save the king ! Send him victorious Happy and glorious Long to reign over us God save the king ! </P> <H2> Use in the United Kingdom ( edit ) </H2> See also : National anthem of England The phrase `` God Save the King '' in use as a rallying cry to the support of the monarch and the nation 's forces <P> `` God Save the Queen '' is the national anthem of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland . Like many aspects of British constitutional life , its official status derives from custom and use , not from Royal Proclamation or Act of Parliament . In general only one or two verses are sung , but on rare occasions three . The variation in the UK of the lyrics to `` God Save the Queen '' is the oldest amongst those currently used , and forms the basis on which all other versions used throughout the Commonwealth are formed ; though , again , the words have varied throughout these years . </P> <P> England has no official national anthem of its own ; `` God Save the Queen '' is treated as the English national anthem when England is represented at sporting events ( though there are some exceptions to this rule , such as cricket where Jerusalem is used ) . There is a movement to establish an English national anthem , with Blake and Parry 's `` Jerusalem '' and Elgar 's `` Land of Hope and Glory '' among the top contenders . Scotland has its own national song and Wales has its own national anthem for political and national events and for use at international football , rugby union and other sports in which those nations compete independently . On all occasions Wales ' national anthem is `` Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau '' ( Land of my Fathers ) . Scotland has no single anthem ; `` Scotland the Brave '' was traditionally used until the 1990s , when `` Flower of Scotland '' was adopted . In Northern Ireland , `` God Save the Queen '' is still used as the official anthem . </P> <P> The phrase `` No surrender '' is occasionally sung in the bridge before `` Send her victorious '' by England football fans at matches

Get Me Out Of Here ! ( often shortened to I 'm a Celebrity or I 'm a Celeb ) is a British survival reality television game show , first aired on 25 August 2002 , in which celebrities live in jungle conditions with few creature comforts . The show has been hosted by Ant & Dec since its inception and served as the inspiration for a franchise of the same name . It is filmed in Murwillumbah , New South Wales , Australia and broadcast on ITV in the United Kingdom . </P> <P> In the Republic of Ireland , TV3 began simulcasts at the beginning of series 3 in 2004 . The series moved to their sister channel 3e for series 12 , 13 and 14 . The series moved to UTV Ireland in 2015 for series 15 .

( November 2011 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) </Td> </Tr> </Table> <P> In return for their appearance on I 'm a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here ! , the celebrities are asked to nominate a charity to which the producers , ITV Studios , make donations . The celebrities themselves are also paid a fee to compensate them for possible loss of earnings while they are in the jungle . The producers of the show keep the precise details of the celebrities ' contracts private , prompting much speculation from the media . The money is raised by allowing viewers to vote by phone , text message , or the `` red button '' ( a colloquialism popular in the UK for TV interactive services ) for the celebrity they would like to complete a `` Bushtucker Trial '' -- a physical task usually involving snakes , spiders or other creepy - crawlies found in the jungle -- and , later in each series , to vote for the celebrity they would like to see win the show . The last remaining celebrity after all others have been evicted is declared the winner of the show , and is branded `` King / Queen of the Jungle '' . </P> <H3> Bushtucker trial </H3> <P> Bushtucker trials are used in the show to allow the contestants to gain food and treats for camp . Bushtucker Trials take two formats : eating trials , or physical / mental tasks . </P> <P> In the eating trials , contestants are required to eat a variety of different `` jungle '' foods . Each dish successfully eaten will gain the contestants one star , which equals one meal for camp ( although the number of meals per star can vary ) . These trials generate the most viewer responses according to the ITV website . The foods that are required to be eaten can include : crickets ( in a variety of forms , such as cooked into biscuits , blended into drinks or eaten alive or dead ) , green ants , mealworms , witchetty grub , roasted spider or tarantulas , kangaroo testicles , kangaroo penis , kangaroo vaginal parts , crocodile penis , cockroach ( prepared in various ways such as being cooked into biscuits , blended into drinks , eaten alive or dead ) . Other past foods include beach worms , bull 's tongues , the anus of various animals , vomit fruits , cooked pigs ' brains , various animal testicles , raw fish eyes , sheep eyes , blended rats or mice tails . </P> <P> The second type of challenge is more of a physical or mental task that requires the contestants to perform activities to gain stars . These can include searching through dung , going through tunnels , negotiating obstacles on high wires , or performing other tasks . </P> <H3> Dingo Dollar Challenge / Dingo Dimes </H3> <P> One way of camp can earn treats is by doing extra tasks in Bushtucker trials or in general . Dingo Dimes can be used in the vending machine in Croc Creek . Dingo Dimes only featured in the 2015 series . </P> <P> Another way camp can earn treats is to do what is known as the `` Dingo Dollar Challenge '' . This involves two or more celebrities going into the jungle to perform a task that releases an item to open a container with an amount of dingo dollars . Once that has been completed and the dollars have been retrieved , it is taken to a small woodshack shop , with shopkeeper ' Kiosk Keith ' . They can exchange the dollars for a necessity such as a hammock or a treat such as chocolate chip cookies . Kiosk Keith calls camp and the celebrities then have a question usually relating to a celebrity or a piece of trivia . The `` Celebrity Chest '' was abandoned for the first time in the 2012 series , in favour of the Dingo Dollar Challenge , which involves the celebrities collecting ' dingo dollars ' and subsequently answering a question correctly in order to win a treat for the camp , if they win they will receive their prize however if the celebrities get it wrong , Kiosk Keith takes the dingo dollars and shuts up shop , leaving nothing for the camp . </P> <P> Formerly , ' The Celebrity Chest ' had a question with a choice of answers , similar to the Dingo Dollar Challenge , the two celebrities who took part in the challenge would bring the chest back to camp and collaborate over the question with the other camp members . If correct , they would win a treat , if incorrect , they would be told what the treat was . </P> <P> In Dingo Dollars if the camp members answer correctly they get a choice of two treats . </P> <H2> Filming location </H2> On location in the `` Jungle '' in Dungay , north - eastern New South Wales <P> The first series of the show was filmed near Cairns , in Queensland , Australia . Since the second series , the programme has been filmed in Springbrook National Park , near Murwillumbah , New South Wales , Australia . </P> <P> Inside the entrance to the filming location is an open area allocated to buildings which accommodate on - site medical facilities , containers for the storage of props , and other back - stage facilities . Families and friends of the celebrities are housed here each morning during evictions . From this area , a restricted access road climbs to the site of the studios . The road then heads down into a valley via four - wheel drive access to the set of the show . </P> <P> Some of these areas are viewable from Google Earth , although it is difficult to view the suspension bridges and open - air studio that Ant & Dec broadcast from . While the roof of the main building is bright red , when filming is out of season , this whole area is covered with hessian to obscure the aerial view . The creeks and camp areas are situated directly below the main suspension bridges . As they are so close to the celebrities , the crew have to be careful during filming to keep voices and music down . Many of the Bushtucker Trials are not performed here ; in fact , some are performed well away from the area . </P> <P> Once out of the jungle , the contestants stay at the five - star hotel Palazzo Versace Australia . The health and well - being of the celebrities and crew are looked after by medic Bob McCarron and his team from EMS . McCarron is also responsible for all of the creatures and food in the challenges . </P> <H2> Popularity and

After years of preliminary exploration and military skirmishes , 180 Spanish soldiers under conquistador Francisco Pizarro , his brothers , and their native allies captured the Sapa Inca Atahualpa in the 1532 Battle of Cajamarca . It was the first step in a long campaign that took decades of fighting but ended in Spanish victory in 1572 and colonization of the region as the Viceroyalty of Peru . The conquest of the Inca Empire ( called `` Tahuantinsuyu '' or `` Tawantinsuyu '' in Quechua , meaning `` Realm of the Four Parts '' ) , led to spin - off campaigns into present - day Chile and Colombia , as well as expeditions towards the Amazon Basin . </P> <P> When the Spanish arrived at the borders of the Inca Empire in 1528 , it spanned a considerable area ; by far the largest of the four grand pre-Columbian civilizations . Extending southward from the Ancomayo , which is now known as the Patía River , in southern present - day Colombia to the Maule River in what would later be known as Chile , and eastward from the Pacific Ocean to the edge of the Amazonian jungles , the empire covered some of the most mountainous terrain on Earth . In less than a century , the Inca had expanded their empire from about 400,000 km2 ( 155,000 sq mi ) in 1448 , to 1,800,000 km2 ( 690,000 sq mi ) in 1528 , just before the arrival of the Spanish . This vast area of land varied greatly in cultures and in climate . Because of the diverse cultures and geography , the Inca allowed many areas of the empire to be governed under the control of local leaders , who were watched and monitored by Inca officials . However , under the administrative mechanisms established by the Inca , all parts of the empire answered to , and were ultimately under the direct control of , the Emperor . Scholars estimate that the population of the Inca Empire numbered more than 16,000,000 . </P> <P> Some scholars , such as Jared Diamond , believe that while the Spanish conquest was undoubtedly the proximate cause of the collapse of the Inca Empire , it may very well have been past its peak and already in the process of decline . In 1528 , Emperor Huayna Capac ruled the Inca Empire . He could trace his lineage back to a `` stranger king '' named Manco Cápac , the mythical founder of the Inca clan , who according to tradition emerged from a cave in a region called Pacariqtambo . </P> <P> Huayna Capac was the son of the previous ruler , Túpac Inca , and the grandson of Pachacuti , the Emperor who , by conquest , had commenced the dramatic expansion of the Inca Empire from its cultural and traditional base in the area around Cuzco . On his accession to the throne , Huayna Capac had continued the policy of expansion by conquest , taking Inca armies north into what is today Ecuador . While he had to put down a number of rebellions during his reign , by the time of his death , his legitimacy was as unquestioned as was the primacy of Inca power . </P> <P> However , expansion had resulted in its own problems . Many parts of the empire maintained distinctive cultures and these were at best resistive participants in the imperial project . The large extent of the empire , the extremely difficult terrain of much of it , and the fact that all communication and travel had to take place on foot or by boat , seems to have caused increasing difficulty in the Incas ' effective administration of the empire . </P> <P> Huayna Capac relied on his sons to support his reign . While he had many legitimate and illegitimate children ( legitimate meaning born of his sister - wife , under the Inca system ) , two sons are historically important . Prince Túpac Cusi Hualpa , also known as Huáscar , was the son of Coya Mama Rahua Occllo of the royal line . The second was Atahualpa , an illegitimate son who was likely born of a daughter of the last independent King of Quitu , one of the states conquered by Huayna Capac during the expansion of the Inca Empire . These two sons would play pivotal roles in the final years of the Inca Empire . </P> <P> The Spanish conquistador Pizarro and his men were greatly aided in their enterprise by invading when the Inca Empire was in the midst of a war of succession between the princes Huáscar and Atahualpa . Atahualpa seems to have spent more time with Huayna Capac during the years when he was in the north with the army conquering Ecuador . Atahualpa was thus closer to , and had better relations with the army and its leading generals . When both Huayna Capac and his eldest son and designated heir , Ninan Cuyochic , died suddenly in 1528 from what was probably smallpox , a disease introduced by the Spanish into the Americas , the question of who would succeed as emperor was thrown open . Huayna had died before he could nominate the new heir . </P> <P> At the time of Huayna Capac 's death , Huáscar was in the capital Cuzco , while Atahualpa was in Quitu with the main body of the Inca army . Huáscar had himself proclaimed Sapa Inca ( i.e. `` Only Emperor '' ) in Cuzco , but the army declared loyalty to Atahualpa . The resulting dispute led to the Inca Civil War . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Chronology of the last years of the Inca Empire </Li> <Li> 2 Beginning of the conflict </Li> <Li> 3 Arrival of Pizarro </Li> <Li> 4 Capture of Atahualpa </Li> <Li> 5 Rebellion and reconquest </Li> <Li> 6 Aftermath </Li> <Li> 7 Effects of the conquest on people of the Empire </Li> <Li> 8 In fiction </Li> <Li> 9 Quotes </Li> <Li> 10 See also

His last name is a reference to Arthur P. Jacobs , the producer of the original Planet of the Apes series . </Li> <Li> Tyler Labine as Robert Franklin , a chimp handler at Gen - Sys and one of Will 's friends . His surname is a reference to Franklin Schaffner , the director of the original film . </Li> <Li> Jamie Harris as Rodney , a caretaker and a nightwatchman who is much kinder to the apes at the sanctuary and is regularly mocked by Dodge for this . </Li> <Li> David Hewlett as Hunsiker , Will 's hot - headed neighbor . </Li> <Li> Chelah Horsdal as Irena , a nurse who is looking after Charles . </Li> </Ul> <H3> Apes ( edit ) </H3> <Ul> <Li> Andy Serkis as Caesar , a common chimpanzee whose intelligence is increased from being exposed in the womb to ALZ - 112 when the drug is administered to his pregnant mother , and who is raised by Will for eight years . </Li> <Li> Karin Konoval as Maurice , a wise and benevolent Bornean orangutan who was retired from the circus and knows sign language ; he becomes Caesar 's closest ally . Konoval also cameos as the court clerk whom Will briefly argues with about his appeal . His name is a reference to Maurice Evans who portrays Dr. Zaius in the original Planet of the Apes . </Li> <Li> Terry Notary as Rocket , the dominant common chimpanzee at the ape sanctuary , until Caesar overthrows him . Notary also plays Bright Eyes , Caesar 's mother , who was captured in Africa . `` Bright Eyes '' was the name given by chimpanzee scientist Zira to Taylor , the human astronaut in the Planet of the Apes movie . </Li> <Li> Richard Ridings as Buck , a Western lowland gorilla who pledges his allegiance to Caesar after he is freed by him . </Li> <Li> Devyn Dalton as Cornelia , a female common chimpanzee in the ape sanctuary . </Li> <Li> Jay Caputo as Alpha , the dominant male common chimpanzee of Bright Eyes ' troop and Caesar 's father . </Li> <Li> Christopher Gordon as Koba , a scarred and aggressive bonobo who has spent most of his life in laboratories and holds a grudge against humans . </Li> </Ul> <H2> Production ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Development and writing ( edit ) </H3> <P> In 2006 , screenwriter - producer Rick Jaffa was searching for a script idea . As Jaffa searched a newspaper articles clipping , one about pet chimpanzees that become troublesome to their owners and heartbroken for not adapting well to the human environment intrigued him . As Jaffa eventually realized it fit the Planet of the Apes series , he called his wife and screenwriting partner Amanda Silver to express his ideas of such a chimpanzee eventually starting the ape revolution , and then the couple started developing the character of Caesar . Jaffa indicated that `` it 's a reinvention '' and if he had to pick between calling it a prequel or a reboot he would say it is a reboot : `` It 's a different story of who Caesar is , and how he came to be . So it 's really kind of hard to put a label on it . We are hopefully rebooting it . '' He went on to say that `` we tried really hard to create a story that would stand on its own and yet also pay homage and honor the movies that came before us . '' Jaffa and Silver then wrote a script and sold it to Fox , producers of the Apes franchise . The script added other elements which the couple had researched , such as genetic engineering . Several tributes to specific scenes , characters , and cast and crew from the previous Apes film series were added in the script . In particular , Caesar 's treatment at the primate sanctuary parallels Taylor 's treatment as a captive in the original film . </P> <P> In a segment of a video blog post , director Rupert Wyatt commented on the originality of the plot : `` This is part of the mythology and it should be seen as that . It 's not a continuation of the other films ; it 's an original story . It does satisfy the people who enjoy those films . The point of this film is to achieve that and to bring that fan base into this film exactly like Batman Begins . '' In a 2009 interview , Wyatt said , `` We 've incorporated elements from Conquest of the Planet of the Apes , in terms of how the apes begin to revolt , but this is primarily a prequel to the 1968 film ... Caesar is a revolutionary figure who will be talked about by his fellow apes for centuries ... This is just the first step in the evolution of the apes , and there 's a lot more stories to tell after this . I imagine the next film will be about the all - out war between the apes and humans . '' Mark Bomback did an uncredited rewrite of the script . </P> <H3> Filming ( edit ) </H3> <P> Filming began in July 2010 in Vancouver , British Columbia . Filming also happened in San Francisco , California ( the primary setting of the film ) , and around Oahu , Hawaii , which doubled for the African jungle as the schedule and budget did not allow for location shooting in Africa . </P> <H3> Visual effects ( edit ) </H3> <P> As the apes in Rise were meant to be actual apes , the producers decided not to use actors in ape suits . After considering real apes , instead Weta Digital created the apes digitally in almost every case through performance capture . Advances in the technology allowed the use of performance capture in an exterior environment , affording the film - makers the freedom to shoot much of the film on location with other actors , as opposed to the confines of a soundstage . The main breakthrough was a camera that enabled viewing the motion capture dots in daylight , employed mostly for the Golden Gate Bridge battle . A maximum of six actors could have their movements captured , with larger ape crowds using fully digital animals animated using Weta 's move library . The Golden Gate Bridge set used both a physical set which was extended digitally , and a fully computer - generated model of the bridge that also included the ocean and nearby hills . </P> <P> After shooting the actors playing humans interacting with others wearing the motion capture suits , a clean plate was shot with actors for extra reference . Actor - stuntman Terry Notary guided the actors on realistic ape movement , while Weta studied the chimps in the Wellington Zoo for reference . The digital apes also received detailed models with skeletons , muscles and nerve tissue layers for accurate animation . Cast models of apes ' heads and limbs helped the texture department replicate skin details such as wrinkles and pores . Given the difference between human and chimpanzee facial muscles , the animators tweaked the performance through a new facial muscle system adding dynamics , ballistics , and secondary motion . As the silent performance required expressive eyes , a new eye model was made to depict both greater accuracy in muscle movement in and around the eyes , and also tears , pupil dilation , and light refraction . While Andy Serkis was the primary performer for Caesar , as the effects team considered that at times `` Andy overcame the character , '' other motion capture team actors were also used , especially Devyn Dalton , whose height matched that of a chimpanzee . Along with that , they used Notary to play Caesar in stunt - filled scenes such as the Golden Gate Bridge scene . </P> <H3> Music ( edit ) </H3> <P> The score for the film was written by Patrick Doyle and performed by the Hollywood Studio Symphony conducted by James Shearman . The main concern was to have the music help progress the plot in the scenes without dialogue , for instance , conveying the emotions of Caesar 's relationships with Will and Charles . To turn the score into a `` driving force that keeps audiences paying attention , '' Doyle employed an African - American chorus and focused on percussion and `` low and deep '' orchestra sounds . Doyle collaborated closely with the sound department to make the music complement the sound effects , including writing a recurring theme based on their recording of a chimpanzee . </P> <H2> Reception ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Critical response ( edit ) </H3> <P> On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes , the film has an approval rating of 81 % based on 258 reviews , with an average rating of 7.1 / 10 . The site 's critical consensus reads , `` Led by Rupert Wyatt 's stylish direction , some impressive special effects , and a mesmerizing performance by Andy Serkis , Rise of the Planet of the Apes breathes unlikely new life into a long - running franchise . '' Another review aggregator , Metacritic , gave the film a score of 68 out of 100 , based on 39 critics , indicating `` generally favorable reviews '' . </P> <P> Roger Ebert gave the film 3 out of 4 stars and praised the role of Caesar and Andy Serkis by stating it was a `` wonderfully executed character '' and `` one never knows exactly where the human ends and the effects begin , but Serkis and / or Caesar gives the best performance in the movie . '' Giving the film 5 out of 5 stars , Joe Neumaier of Daily News labelled Rise of the Planet of the Apes as the summer 's best popcorn flick . Nick Pinkerton of The Village Voice wrote , `` Caesar 's prison conversion to charismatic pan-ape revolutionist is near - silent filmmaking , with simple and precise images illustrating Caesar 's General - like divining of personalities and his organization of a group from chaos to order . '' Roger Moore of Orlando Sentinel wrote , `` Audacious , violent and disquieting , `` Rise of the Planet of the Apes '' is a summer sequel that 's better than it has any right to be . '' He gave the film 3.5 out of 4 stars . Manohla Dargis of The New York Times praised the film by saying , `` Precisely the kind of summer diversion that the studios have such a hard time making now . It 's good , canny - dumb fun . '' She also gave it 3.5 out of 4 stars . </P> <P> Peter Travers of Rolling Stone noted that the film has mixed `` twists lifted from 1972 's Conquest of the Planet of the Apes and 1999 's Deep Blue Sea '' . </P> <H3> Box Office ( edit ) </H3> <P> Rise of the Planet of the Apes made its debut in the United States and Canada on roughly 5,400 screens within 3,648 theaters . It grossed $19,534,699 on opening day and $54,806,191 in

This species is a Pacific salmon that is primarily red in hue during spawning . They can grow up to 84 cm ( 2 ft 9 in ) in length and weigh 2.3 to 7 kg ( 5.1 -- 15.4 lb ) . Juveniles remain in freshwater until they are ready to migrate to the ocean , over distances of up to 1,600 km ( 990 mi ) . Their diet consists primarily of zooplankton . Sockeye salmon are semelparous , dying after they spawn . Some populations , referred to as kokanee , do not migrate to the ocean and live their entire lives in freshwater . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Classification and name origin </Li> <Li> 2 Description </Li> <Li> 3 Range and habitat <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Landlocked populations </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Diet </Li> <Li> 5 Life cycle </Li> <Li> 6 Reproduction <Ul> <Li> 6.1 Sexual selection and natural selection </Li> <Li> 6.2 Energy cost </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 7 Competition </Li> <Li> 8 Fisheries and consumption </Li> <Li> 9 Conservation status <Ul> <Li> 9.1 United States </Li> <Li> 9.2 Canada </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 10 References </Li> <Li> 11 Technical reports </Li> <Li> 12 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Classification and name origin ( edit ) </H2> <P> Sockeye salmon is the third-most common Pacific salmon species , after pink and chum salmon . Oncorhynchus comes from the Greek ὄγκος ( onkos ) meaning `` barb '' , and ῥύγχος ( rhynchos ) meaning `` snout '' . Nerka is the Russian name for the anadromous form . The name `` sockeye '' is an anglicization of suk - kegh ( sθə́qəy̓ ) , its name in Halkomelem , the language of the indigenous people along the lower reaches of the Fraser River ( one of British Columbia 's many native Coast Salish languages ) . Suk - kegh means `` red fish '' . </P> <H2> Description ( edit ) </H2> <P> The sockeye salmon is sometimes called red or blueback salmon , due to its color . Sockeye are blue tinged with silver in color while living in the ocean . When they return to spawning grounds , their bodies become red and their heads turn green . Sockeye can be anywhere from 60 to 84 cm ( 2 ft 0 in -- 2 ft 9 in ) in length and weigh from 2.3 to 7 kg ( 5.1 -- 15.4 lb ) . Two distinguishing features are their long , serrated gill rakers that range from 30 to 40 in number , and their lack of a spot on their tail or back . </P> <H2> Range and habitat ( edit ) </H2> <P> Sockeye salmon range as far south as the Columbia River in the eastern Pacific ( although individuals have been spotted as far south as the 10 Mile River on the Mendocino Coast of California ) and in northern Hokkaidō Island in Japan in the western Pacific . They range as far north as the Bathurst Inlet in the Canadian Arctic in the east and the Anadyr River in Siberia in the west . The farthest inland sockeye salmon travel is to Redfish Lake , Idaho , over 900 miles ( 1,400 km ) from the ocean and 6,500 feet ( 2,000 m ) in elevation . </P> <H3> Landlocked populations ( edit ) </H3> Male spawning - phase sockeye <P> Completely landlocked populations of the same species also are known . Some sockeye live and reproduce in lakes and are commonly called kokanee , which is red - fish name in the Sinixt Interior Salish language and silver trout in the Okanagan language . They are much smaller than the anadromous variety and are rarely over 35 cm ( 14 in ) long . In the Okanagan Lake and many others , there are two kinds of kokanee populations -- one spawns in streams and the other near lake shores . Landlocked populations occur in the Yukon Territory and British Columbia in Canada , as well as , in Alaska , Washington , Oregon , California , New York , Utah , Idaho , Montana , Nevada , Colorado , New Mexico , and Wyoming in the United States . Nantahala Lake is the only place in North Carolina where kokanee salmon are found . The fish , which is native to western North America , was stocked in Nantahala Lake in the mid-1960s by the NC Wildlife Resources Commission in an attempt to establish the species as a forage fish for other predator fishes in the lake . This stock has remained and become a favorite target for anglers . </P> <P> In Japan , a landlocked variety termed black kokanee , or `` kunimasu '' in Japanese , was deemed to be extinct after 1940 , when a hydroelectric project made its native lake in northern Akita Prefecture more acidic . The species seems to have been saved by transferring eggs to Saiko Lake , 500 kilometers to the south , however . This fish has been treated as a subspecies of sockeye Oncorhynchus nerka kawamurae , or even an independent species Oncorhynchus kawamurae . </P> <H2> Diet ( edit ) </H2> <P> Sockeye salmon use patterns of limnetic feeding behavior , which encompasses vertical movement , schooling , diel feeding chronology , and zooplankton prey selectivity . They can change their position in the water column , timing and length of feeding , school formation , and choice of prey to minimize the likelihood of predation . This also ensures they still get the minimum amount of food necessary to survive . All of these behaviors contribute to the survivability , and therefore fitness of the salmon . Depending on location and threat of predation , the levels of aggressive feeding behavior can vary . </P> <P> Sockeye salmon , unlike other species of Pacific salmon , feed extensively on zooplankton during both freshwater and saltwater life stages . They also tend to feed on small aquatic organisms such as shrimp . Insects are part of their diets at the juvenile stage . </P> <H2> Life cycle ( edit ) </H2> See also : Salmon run <P> Sockeye salmon exhibit many different life histories with the majority being anadromous where the juvenile salmon migrate from freshwater lakes and streams to the ocean before returning as adults to their natal freshwater to spawn . Similar to most Pacific salmon , sockeye salmon are semelparous , meaning they die after spawning once . Some sockeye , called kokanee , do not migrate to the ocean and live their entire lives in freshwater lakes . The majority of sockeye spawn in rivers near lakes and juveniles will spend one to two years in the lake before migrating to the ocean , although some populations will migrate to saltwater in their first year . Adult sockeye will spend two to three years in the ocean before returning to freshwater . Females will spawn in 3 - 5 redds over a period of a several days . The eggs usually hatch within six to nine weeks and the fry typically rear in lakes before migrating to the ocean . </P> <H2> Reproduction ( edit ) </H2> Spawning sockeye salmon <P> Males partake in competitive and sneaking tactics , formation of hierarchies , and non-hierarchical groupings around females who are ready to mate . Reproductive success varies more in males than females . The greater variability in male reproduction is associated with the greater average size and exaggerated shape of males . Reproductive success in females is determined by the number of eggs she lays , her body size , and the survival of the eggs , which is due in part to the quality of the nest environment . Male spatial distribution depends on shifts in reproductive opportunities , physical traits of breeding sites , as well as the operational sex ratio ( OSR ) of the environment . </P> <P> Non-dominant males adopt a subordinate behavior , acting as a satellite to mated pairs . During spawning , a subordinate male will move quickly into the redd and release their sperm . Nearby dominant males from other redds will also do this . Male social status is positively correlated to length and dorsal hump size . Larger females tend to spawn in shallower water , which is preferred over deeper water . </P> A male ( near ) and female ( far ) sockeye salmon spawning in the Adams River of British Columbia , Canada . <P> There is a dramatic sexual dimorphism at maturity . Males go through numerous morphological changes at maturation including , an increase in body depth , hump height , and snout length . Snout size also increases in females , but hump height and adipose fin length do not increase . This could mean that longer snout sizes are sexually selected , but hump height and adipose fin length are not . Females develop large gonads that are about 25 % of the body mass . </P> <P> Females are responsible for parental care . They select , prepare , and defend a nest site until they die or are displaced . Males do not participate in parental care at all , and they move between females after egg deposition . </P> <H3> Sexual selection and natural selection ( edit ) </H3> <P> Sexual selection favors large males and females . Males choose females based on their readiness to spawn and their size in order to maximize their breeding opportunities . Larger bodies allow females to reproduce larger and more numerous eggs , better nest choice and ability to defend it , and the ability to bury eggs deeper and provide more protection . Females vary their breeding rate depending on the size of the courting male , mating more quickly with larger males . This increases the likelihood that larger males will displace attending , smaller males . Male sockeye salmon social status and greater reproductivity are directly associated with larger body size and more extreme body shapes ; Larger bodies provide males with advantages when it comes to intrasexual competition and being selected for by females during reproduction . Males preferentially spawn with females who are red , which is the usual color of females . Even small changes in wavelength , saturation , and brightness can affect preference . Both sexually naïve males and experienced males showed the same preferences , which illustrates that preference for a red hue may be innate . </P> <P> Some traits that lead to reproductive success , such as body size and sexual dimorphism can affect one 's survival . This leads to opposing pressures of natural selection and sexual selection . Larger males are favored , unless the risk of predation is very high . Sockeye salmon that die prematurely from predation are typically the larger ones in a population . This shows natural selection against large bodies . Populations with higher levels of predation

Office 2010 was released to manufacturing on April 15 , 2010 , and was later made available for retail and online purchase on June 15 , 2010 . It is the successor to Microsoft Office 2007 and the predecessor to Microsoft Office 2013 . Research and development of Office 2010 began in 2006 , before the release of its predecessor . </P> <P> Office 2010 introduces user interface enhancements including a Backstage view interface that consolidates document management commands into a single location . The ribbon introduced as part of Access , Excel , Outlook , PowerPoint , and Word in Office 2007 is the primary user interface for all apps and is fully customizable in Office 2010 . Other new features include extended file format support ; co-authoring features that allow multiple users to share and simultaneously edit documents ; integration with SharePoint and OneDrive ; and security improvements such as the introduction of Protected View , a new read - only , isolated sandbox environment to protect users from potentially malicious content . Office 2010 is the first version of the productivity suite to ship in both 32 - bit and 64 - bit versions , but the 64 - bit version is not officially compatible with Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 . It is also the first version to require product activation for volume license editions . It is the last version of Office compatible with Windows XP , Windows Server 2003 , Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 as its successor , Office 2013 , does not support these operating systems . </P> <P> Office 2010 marks the debut of Office Online ( formerly Office Web Apps ) , a collection of free web - based versions of Excel , OneNote , PowerPoint , and Word . Office Starter 2010 , a new edition of Office , replaced the low - end Microsoft Works home productivity software . Office Mobile 2010 , an update to Microsoft 's mobile productivity suite , was released on May 12 , 2010 as a free upgrade from the Windows Phone Store for Windows Mobile 6.5 devices with a previous version of Office Mobile . </P> <P> Reception to Office 2010 was generally positive , with critics praising the new Backstage view interface , the new customization options for the ribbon , and the incorporation of the ribbon into all apps . While sales were initially lower than those of its predecessor , Office 2010 was a success for Microsoft , surpassing the company 's previous records related to adoption , deployment , and revenue . Microsoft sold approximately 200 million licenses of Office 2010 as of December 31 , 2011 , before its discontinuation on January 31 , 2013 .

Once a major world power , the Sasanian Empire had exhausted its human and material resources after decades of warfare against the Byzantine Empire . The internal political situation quickly deteriorated after the execution of King Khosrow II in 628 AD . Subsequently , ten new claimants were enthroned within the next four years . With conflict erupting between Persian and Parthian factions , the empire was no longer centralized . </P> <P> Arab Muslims first attacked the Sassanid territory in 633 , when general Khalid ibn Walid invaded Mesopotamia ( Sassanid province of Asōristān ; what is now Iraq ) , which was the political and economic center of the Sassanid state . Following the transfer of Khalid to the Byzantine front in the Levant , the Muslims eventually lost their holdings to Sassanian counterattacks . The second invasion began in 636 under Saad ibn Abi Waqqas , when a key victory at the Battle of al - Qādisiyyah led to the permanent end of Sasanian control west of Iran . The Zagros mountains then became a natural barrier and border between the Rashidun Caliphate and the Sassanid Empire . Due to continuous raids by Persians into the area , Caliph Umar ordered a full invasion of the Sasanian empire in 642 , which led to the complete conquest of the Sasanians around 651 . Directing from Medina , a few thousand kilometres from the battlefields of Iran , Caliph Umar 's quick conquest of Iran in a series of well - coordinated , multi-pronged attacks became his greatest triumph , contributing to his reputation as a great military and political strategist . </P> <P> Iranian historians have defended their forebears vis a vis Arab sources to illustrate that `` contrary to the claims of some historians , Iranians , in fact , fought long and hard against the invading Arabs . '' By 651 , most of the urban centers in Iranian lands , with the notable exception of the Caspian provinces ( Tabaristan ) and Transoxiana , had come under the domination of the Arab armies . Many localities fought against the invaders ; ultimately , none were successful . In fact , although Arabs had established hegemony over most of the country , many cities rose in rebellion by killing the Arab governor or attacking their garrisons . Eventually , military reinforcements quashed the insurgency and imposed Islamic control . The violent subjugation of Bukhara is a case in point : Conversion to Islam was gradual , partially as the result of this violent resistance ; however , Zoroastrian scriptures were burnt and many priests were executed . However , the Persians began to reassert themselves by maintaining Persian language and culture . Islam would become the dominant religion late in the medieval ages . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Historiography and recent scholarship </Li> <Li> 2 Sassanid Empire before the Conquest <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Revolt of the Arab client states ( 602 ) </Li> <Li> 2.2 Byzantine -- Sassanid War ( 612 -- 629 ) <Ul> <Li> 2.2. 1 Execution of Khosrau II </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2.3 During Muhammad 's life </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Rise of the Caliphate </Li> <Li> 4 First invasion of Mesopotamia ( 633 ) </Li> <Li> 5 Second invasion of Mesopotamia ( 634 -- 636 ) <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Battle of the Bridge </Li> <Li> 5.2 Battle of Qadisiyyah </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 Conquest of Mesopotamia ( 636 -- 638 ) <Ul> <Li> 6.1 Raids of Persians in Mesopotamia ( 638 -- 641 ) </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 7 Battle of Nahavand ( 642 ) </Li> <Li> 8 Conquest of Persia ( 642 -- 651 ) <Ul> <Li> 8.1 Strategic planning for the conquest of Persia </Li> <Li> 8.2 Conquest of Central Iran </Li> <Li> 8.3 Conquest of Fars <Ul> <Li> 8.3. 1 First Muslim invasion and the successful Sasanian counter-attack </Li> <Li> 8.3. 2 Second and last Muslim invasion </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 8.4 Conquest of Southeastern Persia ( Kerman and Makran ) </Li> <Li> 8.5 Conquest of Sakastan </Li> <Li> 8.6 Conquest of Azerbaijan </Li> <Li> 8.7 Conquest of Armenia </Li> <Li> 8.8 Conquest of Khorasan </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 9 Persian rebellion and reconquest </Li> <Li> 10 End of the Sassanid dynasty </Li> <Li> 11 Persia under Muslim rule <Ul> <Li> 11.1 Administration </Li> <Li> 11.2 Religion </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 12 Language of Persia </Li> <Li> 13 Urbanisation </Li> <Li> 14 See also </Li> <Li> 15 References </Li> <Li> 16 Sources </Li> <Li> 17 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Historiography and recent scholarship ( edit ) </H2> <P> When Western academics first investigated the Muslim conquest of Persia , they only had to rely on the accounts of the Armenian Christian bishop Sebeos , and accounts in Arabic that were written some time after the events they describe . The most significant work was probably that of Arthur Christensen , and his L'Iran sous les Sassanides , published in Copenhagen and Paris in 1944 . </P> <P> However recent scholarship , both Iranian and Western , has begun to question the traditional narrative . Parvaneh Pourshariati , in her Decline and Fall of the Sasanian Empire : The Sasanian - Parthian Confederacy and the Arab Conquest of Iran , published in 2008 , provides both a detailed overview of the problematic nature of trying to establish exactly what happened , and a great deal of original research that questions fundamental facts of the traditional narrative , including the timeline and specific dates . </P> <P> Pourshariati 's central thesis is that contrary to what was commonly assumed , the Sassanian Empire was highly decentralized , and was in fact a `` confederation '' with the Parthians , who themselves retained a high level of independence . Despite their recent victories over the Byzantine Empire , the Parthians unexpectedly withdrew from the confederation , and the Sassanians were thus ill - prepared and ill - equipped to mount an effective and cohesive defense against the Muslim armies . Moreover , the powerful northern and eastern Parthian families , the kust - i khwarasan and kust - i adurbadagan , withdrew to their respective strongholds and made peace with the Arabs , refusing to fight alongside the Sassanians . </P> <P> Another important theme of Pourshariati 's study is a re-evaluation of the traditional timeline . Pourshariati argues that the Arab conquest of Mesopotamia `` took place , not , as has been conventionally believed , in the years 632 -- 634 , after the accession of the last Sasanian king Yazdgerd III ( 632 -- 651 ) to power , but in the period from 628 to 632 . '' An important consequence of this change in timeline means that the Arab conquest started precisely when the Sassanians and Parthians were engaged in internecine warfare over succession to the Sassanian throne . </P> <H2> Sassanid Empire before the conquest ( edit ) </H2> <P> Since the 1st century BC , the border between the Roman ( later Byzantine ) and Parthian ( later Sassanid ) empires had been the Euphrates River . The border was constantly contested . Most battles , and thus most fortifications , were

Please help to improve this article by introducing more precise citations . ( September 2011 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) </Td> </Tr> </Table> Swiss flat - wick kerosene lamp . The knob protruding to the right adjusts the wick , and hence the flame size . <P> A kerosene lamp ( usually called a paraffin lamp in some countries ) is a type of lighting device that uses kerosene ( paraffin ) as a fuel . Kerosene lamps have a wick or mantle as light source , protected by a glass chimney or globe ; lamps may be used on a table , or hand - held lanterns may be used for portable lighting . Like oil lamps , they are useful for lighting without electricity , such as in regions without rural electrification , in electrified areas during power outages , at campsites , and on boats . There are three types of kerosene lamp : flat - wick , central - draught ( tubular round wick ) , and mantle lamp . Kerosene lanterns meant for portable use have a flat wick and are made in dead - flame , hot - blast , and cold - blast variants . </P> <P> Pressurized kerosene lamps have a gas generator and gas mantle ; these are known as Petromax , Tilley lamps , or Coleman lamps , among other manufacturers . They produce more light per unit of fuel than wick - type lamps , but are more complex and expensive in construction and more complex to operate . A hand - pump pressurizes air , which forces liquid fuel from a reservoir into a gas generator . Vapor from the gas generator burns , heating a mantle to incandescence and also providing heat to the gas generator . </P> <P> The first description of a simple lamp using crude mineral oil was provided by Persian alchemist al - Razi ( Rhazes ) in 9th century Baghdad , who referred to it as the `` naffatah '' in his Kitab al - Asrar ( Book of Secrets ) . In 1846 Abraham Pineo Gesner invented a substitute for whale oil for lighting , distilled from coal . Later made from petroleum , kerosene became a popular lighting fuel . Modern versions of the kerosene lamp were later constructed by the Polish inventor Ignacy Łukasiewicz in 1853 in Lviv . </P> <P> Kerosene lamps are widely used for lighting in rural areas of Africa and Asia , where electricity is not distributed or is too costly . Kerosene lamps consume an estimated 77 billion litres of fuel per year , equivalent to 1.3 million barrels of oil per day , comparable to annual U.S. jet - fuel consumption of 76 billion litres per year . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Types <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Flat - wick lamp </Li> <Li> 1.2 Central - draft ( tubular round wick ) lamp </Li> <Li> 1.3 Mantle lamp </Li> <Li> 1.4 Kerosene lantern </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Fuels </Li> <Li> 3 Performance </Li> <Li> 4 See also </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> <Li> 6 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Types ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Flat - wick lamp ( edit ) </H3> NZR lamp on the Weka Pass Railway <P> A flat - wick lamp is a simple type of kerosene lamp , which burns kerosene drawn up through a wick by capillary action . If this type of lamp is broken , it can easily start a fire . A flat - wick lamp has a fuel tank ( fount ) , with the lamp burner attached . Attached to the fuel tank , four prongs hold the glass chimney , which acts to prevent the flame from being blown out and enhances a thermally induced draft . The glass chimney needs a `` throat '' , or slight constriction , to create the proper draft for complete combustion of the fuel ; the draft carries more air ( oxygen ) past the flame , helping to produce a smokeless light , which is brighter than an open flame would produce . </P> <P> The lamp burner has a flat wick , usually made of cotton . The lower part of the wick dips into the fount and absorbs the kerosene ; the top part of the wick extends out of the wick tube of the lamp burner , which includes a wick - adjustment mechanism . Adjusting how much of the wick extends above the wick tube controls the flame . The wick tube surrounds the wick and ensures that the correct amount of air reaches the lamp burner . Adjustment is usually done by means of a small knob operating a cric , which is a toothed metal sprocket bearing against the wick . If the wick is too high , and extends beyond the burner cone at the top of the wick tube , the lamp will produce smoke and soot ( unburned carbon ) . When the lamp is lit , the kerosene that the wick has absorbed burns and produces a clear , bright , yellow flame . As the kerosene burns , capillary action in the wick draws more kerosene up from the fuel tank . All kerosene flat - wick lamps use the dead - flame burner design , where the flame is fed cold air from below , and hot air exits above . </P> <P> This type of lamp was very widely used by railways , both on the front and rear of trains and for hand signals , due to its reliability . At a time when there were few competing light sources at night outside major towns , the limited brightness of these lamps was adequate and could be seen at sufficient distance to serve as a warning or signal . </P> <H3> Central - draft ( tubular round wick ) lamp ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Argand lamp `` Central - draught '' tubular - wick kerosene lamp <P> A central - draught lamp , or Argand lamp , works in the same manner as the flat - wick lamp . The burner is equipped with a tall glass chimney , of around 12 inches ( 300 mm ) tall or taller , to provide the powerful draft this lamp requires to burn properly . The burner uses a wick , usually made of cotton , that is made of a wide , flat wick rolled into a tube , the seam of which is then stitched together to form the complete wick . The tubular wick is then mounted into a `` carrier '' , which is some form of a toothed rack that engages into the gears of the wick - raising mechanism of the burner and allows the wick to be raised and lowered . The wick rides in between the inner and outer wick tubes ; the inner wick tube ( central draft tube ) provides the `` central draft '' or draft that supplies air to the flame spreader . When the lamp is lit , the central draft tube supplies air to the flame spreader that spreads out the flame into a ring of fire and allows the lamp to burn cleanly . </P> <H3> Mantle lamp ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Gas mantle A 85 mm Chance Brothers Incandescent Petroleum Vapour Installation , which produced the light for the Sumburgh Head lighthouse until 1976 . The lamp ( made around 1914 ) burned vaporized kerosene ( paraffin ) ; the vaporizer was heated by a denatured alcohol ( methylated spirit ) burner to light . When lit , some of the vaporised fuel was diverted to a Bunsen burner to keep the vaporizer warm and the fuel in vapor form . The fuel was forced up to the lamp by air ; the keepers had to pump the air container up every hour or so . This in turn pressurized the paraffin container to force the fuel to the lamp . The `` white sock '' is in fact an unburnt mantle , on which the vapor burned . <P> A variation on the `` central - draught '' lamp is the mantle lamp . The mantle is a roughly pear - shaped mesh made of fabric placed over the burner . The mantle typically contains thorium or other rare - earth salts ; on first use the cloth burns away , and the rare - earth salts are converted to oxides , leaving a very fragile structure , which incandesces ( glows brightly ) upon exposure to the heat of the burner flame . Mantle lamps are considerably brighter than flat - or round - wick lamps , produce a whiter light and generate more heat . Mantle lamps typically use fuel faster than a flat - wick lamp , but slower than a center - draught round - wick , as they depend on a small flame heating a mantle , rather than having all the light coming from the flame itself . </P> <P> Mantle lamps are nearly always bright enough to benefit from a lampshade , and a few mantle lamps may be enough to heat a small building in cold weather . Mantle lamps , because of the higher temperature at which they operate , do not produce much odor , except when first lit or extinguished . Like flat - and round - wick lamps , they can be adjusted for brightness ; however , caution must be used , because if set too high , the lamp chimney and the mantle can become covered with black areas of soot . A lamp set too high will burn off its soot harmlessly if quickly turned down , but if not caught soon enough , the soot itself can ignite , and a `` runaway lamp '' condition can result . </P> <P> One popular model of mantle lamp uses only a wick and is unpressurized . </P> <P> Pressurized mantle lamps contain a gas generator and require preheating the generator before lighting . An air pump is used to deliver fuel under pressure to the gas generator . </P> <P> Large fixed pressurized kerosene mantle lamps were used in lighthouse beacons for navigation of ships , brighter and with lower fuel consumption than oil lamps used before . </P> <H3> Kerosene lantern ( edit ) </H3> Dead - flame Hot - blast Cold - blast <P> A kerosene lantern , also known as a `` barn lantern '' or `` hurricane lantern '' , is a flat - wick lamp made for portable and outdoor use . They are made of soldered or crimped - together sheet - metal stampings , with tin - plated sheet steel being the most common material , followed by brass and copper . There are three types : dead - flame , hot - blast , and cold - blast . Both hot - blast and cold - blast designs are called tubular lanterns and are safer than dead - flame lamps , as tipping over a tubular lantern cuts off the oxygen flow to the burner and will extinguish the flame within seconds . </P> <P> The earliest portable kerosene `` glass globe '' lanterns , of the 1850s and 1860s , were of the dead - flame type , meaning that it had an open wick , but the airflow to the flame was strictly controlled in an upward motion by a combination of vents at the bottom of the burner and an open topped chimney . This had the effect of removing side - to - side drafts and thus significantly reducing or even eliminating the flickering that can occur with an exposed flame . </P> <P> Later lanterns , such as the hot -

It is one of the three dietary monosaccharides , along with glucose and galactose , that are absorbed directly into blood during digestion . Fructose was discovered by French chemist Augustin - Pierre Dubrunfaut in 1847 . The name `` fructose '' was coined in 1857 by the English chemist William Allen Miller . Pure , dry fructose is a sweet , white , odorless , crystalline solid , and is the most water - soluble of all the sugars . Fructose is found in honey , tree and vine fruits , flowers , berries , and most root vegetables . </P> <P> Commercially , fructose is derived from sugar cane , sugar beets , and maize . Crystalline fructose is the monosaccharide , dried , ground , and of high purity . High - fructose corn syrup is a mixture of glucose and fructose as monosaccharides . Sucrose is a compound with one molecule of glucose covalently linked to one molecule of fructose . All forms of fructose , including fruits and juices , are commonly added to foods and drinks for palatability and taste enhancement , and for browning of some foods , such as baked goods . About 240,000 tonnes of crystalline fructose are produced annually . </P> <P> As for any sugar , excessive consumption of fructose may contribute to insulin resistance , obesity , elevated LDL cholesterol and triglycerides , leading to metabolic syndrome , type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease . The European Food Safety Authority stated that fructose is preferable over sucrose and glucose in sugar - sweetened foods and beverages because of its lower effect on postprandial blood sugar levels , and also noted that `` high intakes of fructose may lead to metabolic complications such as dyslipidaemia , insulin resistance , and increased visceral adiposity '' . Further , the UK 's Scientific Advisory Committee on Nutrition in 2015 disputed the claims of fructose causing metabolic disorders , stating that `` there is insufficient evidence to demonstrate that fructose intake leads to adverse health outcomes independent of any effects related to its presence as a component of total and free sugars .

It is also called fruit sugar and levulose . </P> <H2> Chemical properties ( edit ) </H2> Figure 1 : Relationship between the acyclic and the cyclic ( hemiketal ) isomers of fructose D - and L - isomers of fructose ( open - chain form ) <P> Fructose is a 6 - carbon polyhydroxyketone . Crystalline fructose adopts a cyclic six - membered structure owing to the stability of its hemiketal and internal hydrogen - bonding . This form is formally called D - fructopyranose . In solution , fructose exists as an equilibrium mixture of 70 % fructo pyranose and about 22 % fructo furanose , as well as small amounts of three other forms , including the acyclic structure . </P> <H3> Reactions ( edit ) </H3> Fructose and fermentation ( edit ) <P> Fructose may be anaerobically fermented by yeast or bacteria . Yeast enzymes convert sugar ( glucose , or fructose ) to ethanol and carbon dioxide . The carbon dioxide released during fermentation will remain dissolved in water , where it will reach equilibrium with carbonic acid , unless the fermentation chamber is left open to the air . The dissolved carbon dioxide and carbonic acid produce the carbonation in bottled fermented beverages . </P> Fructose and Maillard reaction ( edit ) <P> Fructose undergoes the Maillard reaction , non-enzymatic browning , with amino acids . Because fructose exists to a greater extent in the open - chain form than does glucose , the initial stages of the Maillard reaction occur more rapidly than with glucose . Therefore , fructose has potential to contribute to changes in food palatability , as well as other nutritional effects , such as excessive browning , volume and tenderness reduction during cake preparation , and formation of mutagenic compounds . </P> Dehydration ( edit ) <P> Fructose readily dehydrates to give hydroxymethylfurfural ( `` HMF '' ) . This process , in the future , may become part of a low - cost , carbon - neutral system to produce replacements for petrol and diesel from plants . </P> <H2> Physical and functional properties ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Sweetness of fructose ( edit ) </H3> See also : Sweetness § Examples of sweet substances <P> The primary reason that fructose is used commercially in foods and beverages , besides its low cost , is its high relative sweetness . It is the sweetest of all naturally occurring carbohydrates . The relative sweetness of fructose has been reported in the range of 1.2 -- 1.8 times that of sucrose . However , it is the 6 - membered ring form of fructose that is sweeter ; the 5 - membered ring form tastes about the same as usual table sugar . Warming fructose leads to formation of the 5 - membered ring form . Therefore , the relative sweetness decreases with increasing temperature . However it has been observed that the absolute sweetness of fructose is identical at 5 ° C as 50 ° C and thus the relative sweetness to sucrose is not due to anomeric distribution but a decrease in the absolute sweetness of sucrose at lower temperatures . </P> Figure 2 : Relative sweetness of sugars and sweeteners <P> The sweetness of fructose is perceived earlier than that of sucrose or glucose , and the taste sensation reaches a peak ( higher than that of sucrose ) and diminishes more quickly than that of sucrose . Fructose can also enhance other flavors in the system . </P> <P> Fructose exhibits a sweetness synergy effect when used in combination with other sweeteners . The relative sweetness of fructose blended with sucrose , aspartame , or saccharin is perceived to be greater than the sweetness calculated from individual components . </P> <H3> Fructose solubility and crystallization ( edit ) </H3> <P> Fructose has higher solubility than other sugars as well as other sugar alcohols . Fructose is , therefore , difficult to crystallize from an aqueous solution . Sugar mixes containing fructose , such as candies , are softer than those containing other sugars because of the greater solubility of fructose . </P> <H3> Fructose hygroscopicity and humectancy ( edit ) </H3> <P> Fructose is quicker to absorb moisture and slower to release it to the environment than sucrose , glucose , or other nutritive sweeteners . Fructose is an excellent humectant and retains moisture for a long period of time even at low relative humidity ( RH ) . Therefore , fructose can contribute a more palatable texture , and longer shelf life to the food products in which it is used . </P> <H3> Freezing point ( edit ) </H3> <P> Fructose has a greater effect on freezing point depression than disaccharides or oligosaccharides , which may protect the integrity of cell walls of fruit by reducing ice crystal formation

A three - dimensional object can always be rotated around an infinite number of imaginary lines called rotation axes ( / ˈæksiːz / AK - seez ) . If the axis passes through the body 's center of mass , the body is said to rotate upon itself , or spin . A rotation about an external point , e.g. the Earth about the Sun , is called a revolution or orbital revolution , typically when it is produced by gravity . The axis is called a pole . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Mathematics </Li> <Li> 2 Astronomy <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Rotation and revolution </Li> <Li> 2.2 Retrograde rotation </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Physics <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Cosmological principle </Li> <Li> 3.2 Euler rotations </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Flight dynamics </Li> <Li> 5 Amusement rides </Li> <Li> 6 Sports </Li> <Li> 7 Fixed axis vs. fixed point </Li> <Li> 8 Axis of 2 dimensional rotations </Li> <Li> 9 Rotation axis in 3 dimensions </Li> <Li> 10 Rotation plane </Li> <Li> 11 See also </Li> <Li> 12 References </Li> <Li> 13 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Mathematics ( edit ) </H2> Main article : Rotation ( mathematics ) Rotation of a planar figure around a point Rotational Orbit v Spin Relations between rotation axis , plane of orbit and axial tilt ( for Earth ) . <P> Mathematically , a rotation is a rigid body movement which , unlike a translation , keeps a point fixed . This definition applies to rotations within both two and three dimensions ( in a plane and in space , respectively . ) </P> <P> All rigid body movements are rotations , translations , or combinations of the two . </P> <P> A rotation is simply a progressive radial orientation to a common point . That common point lies within the axis of that motion . The axis is 90 degrees perpendicular to the plane of the motion . If the axis of the rotation lies external of the body in question then the body is said to orbit . There is no fundamental difference between a `` rotation '' and an `` orbit '' and or `` spin '' . The key distinction is simply where the axis of the rotation lies , either within or outside of a body in question . This distinction can be demonstrated for both `` rigid '' and `` non rigid '' bodies . </P> <P> If a rotation around a point or axis is followed by a second rotation around the same point / axis , a third rotation results . The reverse ( inverse ) of a rotation is also a rotation . Thus , the rotations around a point / axis form a group . However , a rotation around a point or axis and a rotation around a different point / axis may result in something other than a rotation , e.g. a translation . </P> <P> Rotations around the x , y and z axes are called principal rotations . Rotation around any axis can be performed by taking a rotation around the x axis , followed by a rotation around the y axis , and followed by a rotation around the z axis . That is to say , any spatial rotation can be decomposed into a combination of principal rotations . </P> <P> In flight dynamics , the principal rotations are known as yaw , pitch , and roll ( known as Tait -- Bryan angles ) . This terminology is also used in computer graphics . </P> See also : curl ( mathematics ) , cyclic permutation , Euler angles , rigid body , rotation around a fixed axis , rotation group SO ( 3 ) , rotation matrix , axis angle , quaternion , and isometry <H2> Astronomy ( edit ) </H2> Star trails caused by the Earth 's rotation during the camera 's long exposure time . <P> In astronomy , rotation is a commonly observed phenomenon . Stars , planets and similar bodies all spin around on their axes . The rotation rate of planets in the solar system was first measured by tracking visual features . Stellar rotation is measured through Doppler shift or by tracking active surface features . </P> <P> This rotation induces a centrifugal acceleration in the reference frame of the Earth which slightly counteracts the effect of gravity the closer one is to the equator . One effect is that an object weighs slightly less at the equator . Another is that the Earth is slightly deformed into an oblate spheroid . </P> <P> Another consequence of the rotation of a planet is the phenomenon of precession . Like a gyroscope , the overall effect is a slight `` wobble '' in the movement of the axis of a planet . Currently the tilt of the Earth 's axis to its orbital plane ( obliquity of the ecliptic ) is 23.44 degrees , but this angle changes slowly ( over thousands of years ) . ( See also Precession of the equinoxes and Pole star . ) </P> <H3> Rotation and revolution ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Orbital revolution <P> While revolution is often used as a synonym for rotation , in many fields , particularly astronomy and related fields , revolution , often referred to as orbital revolution for clarity , is used when one body moves around another while rotation is used to mean the movement around an axis . Moons revolve around their planet , planets revolve about their star ( such as the Earth around the Sun ) ; and stars slowly revolve about their galaxial center . The motion of the components of galaxies is complex , but it usually includes a rotation component . </P> <H3> Retrograde rotation ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Retrograde motion <P> Most planets in our solar system , including Earth , spin in the same direction as they orbit the Sun . The exceptions are Venus and Uranus . Uranus rotates nearly on its side relative to its orbit . Current speculation is that Uranus started off with a typical prograde orientation and was knocked on its side by a large impact early in its history . Venus may be thought of as rotating slowly backwards ( or being `` upside down '' ) . The dwarf planet Pluto ( formerly considered a planet ) is anomalous in this and other ways . </P> <H2> Physics ( edit ) </H2> Further information : Angular momentum See also : Speed § Tangential Speed , rotational energy , angular velocity , Centrifugal force ( fictitious ) , centripetal force , circular motion , circular orbit , Coriolis effect , spin ( physics ) , rotational spectroscopy , and Rigid body dynamics § Linear and angular momentum <P> The speed of rotation is given by the angular frequency ( rad / s ) or frequency ( turn / s , turns per minute ) , or period ( seconds , days , etc . ) . The time - rate of change of angular frequency is angular acceleration ( rad / s2 ) , This change is caused by torque . The ratio of the two ( how heavy is it to start , stop , or otherwise change rotation ) is given by the moment of inertia . </P> <P> The angular velocity vector ( an axial vector ) also describes the direction of the axis of rotation . Similarly the torque is an axial vector . </P> <P> The physics of the rotation around a fixed axis is mathematically described with the axis -- angle representation of rotations . According to the right - hand rule , the direction away from the observer is associated with clockwise rotation and the direction towards the observer with counterclockwise rotation , like a screw . </P> <H3> Cosmological principle ( edit ) </H3> <P> The laws of physics are currently believed to be invariant under any fixed rotation . ( Although they do appear to change when viewed from a rotating viewpoint : see rotating frame of reference . ) </P> <P> In modern physical cosmology , the cosmological principle is the notion that the distribution of matter in the universe is homogeneous and isotropic when viewed on a large enough scale , since the forces are expected to act uniformly throughout the universe and have no preferred direction , and should , therefore , produce no observable irregularities in the large scale structuring over the course of evolution of the matter field that was initially laid down by the Big Bang . </P> <P> In particular , for a system which behaves the same regardless of how it is oriented in space , its Lagrangian is rotationally invariant . According to Noether 's theorem , if the action ( the integral over time of its Lagrangian ) of a physical system is invariant under rotation , then angular momentum is conserved . </P> <H3> Euler rotations ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Euler angles Euler rotations of the Earth . Intrinsic ( green ) , Precession ( blue ) and Nutation ( red ) <P> Euler rotations provide an alternative description of a rotation . It is a composition of three rotations defined as the movement obtained by changing one of the Euler angles while leaving the other two constant . Euler rotations are never expressed in terms of the external frame , or in terms of the co-moving rotated body frame , but in a mixture . They constitute a mixed axes of rotation system , where the first angle moves the line of nodes around the external axis z , the second rotates around the line of nodes and the third one is an intrinsic rotation around an axis fixed in the body that moves . </P> <P> These rotations are called precession , nutation , and intrinsic rotation . </P> <H2> Flight dynamics ( edit ) </H2> Main article : Aircraft principal axes The principal axes of rotation in space <P> In flight dynamics , the principal rotations described with Euler angles above are known as pitch , roll and yaw . The term rotation is also used in aviation to refer to the upward pitch ( nose moves up ) of an aircraft , particularly when starting the climb after takeoff . </P> <P> Principal rotations have the advantage of modelling a number of physical systems such as gimbals , and joysticks , so are easily visualised , and are a very compact way of storing a rotation . But they are difficult to use in calculations as even simple operations like combining rotations are expensive to do , and suffer from a form of gimbal lock where the angles can not be uniquely calculated for certain rotations . </P> <H2> Amusement rides ( edit ) </H2> <P> Many amusement rides provide rotation . A Ferris wheel has a horizontal central axis , and parallel axes for each gondola , where the rotation is opposite , by gravity or mechanically . As a result , at any time the orientation of the gondola is upright ( not rotated ) , just translated . The tip of the translation vector describes a circle . A carousel provides rotation about a vertical axis . Many rides provide a combination of rotations about several axes . In Chair - O - Planes the rotation about

It is a film adaptation of the off - Broadway musical comedy of the same name by composer Alan Menken and writer Howard Ashman about a geeky florist shop worker who finds out his venus fly trap can speak . Menken and Ashman 's Off - Broadway musical was based on the low - budget 1960 film The Little Shop of Horrors , directed by Roger Corman . The 1986 film stars Rick Moranis , Ellen Greene , Vincent Gardenia , Steve Martin , and Levi Stubbs as the voice of Audrey II . The film also featured special appearances by Jim Belushi , John Candy , Christopher Guest , and Bill Murray . It was produced by David Geffen through The Geffen Company and released by Warner Bros. on December 19 , 1986 . </P> <P> Little Shop of Horrors was filmed on the Albert R. Broccoli 007 Stage at the Pinewood Studios in England , where a `` downtown '' set , complete with overhead train track , was constructed . The film was produced on a budget of $25 million , in contrast to the original 1960 film , which , according to Corman , only cost $30,000 . The film 's original 23 - minute finale , based on the musical 's ending , was rewritten and reshot after audiences at the preview screenings did not react positively to it . For years only available as black - and - white workprint footage , the original ending was fully restored in 2012 by Warner Home Video . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Plot <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Original ending </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Cast </Li> <Li> 3 Musical numbers </Li> <Li> 4 Production <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Development </Li> <Li> 4.2 Casting </Li> <Li> 4.3 Filming </Li> <Li> 4.4 Operating the plant </Li> <Li> 4.5 The finale </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 Release <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Box office </Li> <Li> 5.2 Critical reception </Li> <Li> 5.3 Accolades </Li> <Li> 5.4 Home media </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 See also </Li> <Li> 7 References </Li> <Li> 8 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Plot ( edit ) </H2> <P> A three - girl `` Greek chorus '' -- Crystal , Ronnette , and Chiffon -- introduce the movie , warning the audience that some horror is coming their way ( `` Prologue : Little Shop of Horrors '' ) . Seymour Krelborn ( Rick Moranis ) and his colleague , Audrey ( Ellen Greene ) , work at Mushnik 's Flower Shop in a run - down , rough neighborhood referred to as `` Skid Row '' in the slums of New York City . They lament that they can not escape the neighborhood ( `` Skid Row '' ( Downtown ) `` ) . Struggling from a lack of customers , Mr. Mushnik ( Vincent Gardenia ) decides to close the store , but Audrey suggests he may have more success by displaying an unusual plant that Seymour owns . Immediately attracting a customer , Seymour explains he bought the plant , which he dubbed `` Audrey II '' , from a Chinese flower shop during a solar eclipse ( `` Da - Doo '' ) . Attracting business to Mushnik 's shop , the plant soon starts dying , worrying Seymour . Accidentally pricking his finger , he then discovers Audrey II needs human blood to thrive ( `` Grow for Me '' ) . </P> <P> Seymour takes Audrey II and is interviewed on the radio , and Audrey misses the broadcast due to being `` hand - cuffed a little '' by her sadistic , mean - spirited boyfriend Orin Scrivello ( Steve Martin ) . The three girls suggest Audrey dump Orin and get another man to protect her , like Seymour , but Audrey states she does n't deserve a nice guy . Despite this , Audrey has feelings for Seymour and secretly dreams of running off with him to the suburbs ( `` Somewhere That 's Green '' ) . Audrey II continues to grow rapidly and Seymour becomes a local celebrity ( `` Some Fun Now '' ) . Seymour soon attempts to ask Audrey out , but she turns him down because she has a date with her boyfriend , revealed to be a dentist ( `` Dentist ! '' ) . After Seymour closes up shop , Audrey II begins to talk to Seymour , demanding more blood than Seymour can give . The plant proposes that Seymour murder someone in exchange for fame and fortune : Seymour initially refuses , but agrees after witnessing Orin beating Audrey ( `` Feed Me ( Get It ) '' ) . </P> <P> After Orin finishes with his masochistic patient , Arthur Denton ( Bill Murray ) , who requested `` a long , slow , root canal '' , Seymour books an appointment with Orin and arms himself with a revolver ; however , he can not bring himself to use it . Orin , who abuses nitrous oxide , puts on a type of venturi mask to receive a constant flow of the gas . Accidentally breaking an intake valve and unable to remove the mask , Orin begs Seymour for help removing it , but Seymour does nothing . When Orin asks Seymour what he ever did to him , Seymour coldly replies , `` Nothing , it 's what you did to her . '' Orin dies from asphyxiation and Seymour drags his body back to Audrey II . While dismembering the body to feed to the plant , Seymour is unknowingly witnessed by Mushnik , who flees in fear . </P> <P> After feeding Orin 's parts to Audrey II , which has grown to enormous size , Seymour discovers the police investigating Orin 's disappearance . Audrey , feeling guilty about wishing Orin would disappear , is comforted by Seymour and the two admit their feelings for each other ( `` Suddenly , Seymour '' ) . That night , Mushnik confronts Seymour about what he saw and holds Seymour at gunpoint , threatening to report him to the police . Mushnik then changes his mind , saying that since Seymour was `` like a son '' to him , he 'll allow Seymour to leave town , leaving the plant to Mushnik . With no choice , Seymour steadily backs him towards the plant , which swallows Mushnik whole ( `` Suppertime '' ) . </P> <P> Despite widespread success , Seymour worries about Audrey II 's growth and unbridled appetite ( `` The Meek Shall Inherit '' ) . Offered money and a contract for a botany TV show , Seymour plans to escape Skid Row with Audrey using the money , leaving the plant to starve . After Audrey accepts Seymour 's marriage proposal , Audrey II catches Seymour leaving and demands another meal : Seymour agrees , but insists on meat from a butcher . While Seymour is gone , the plant telephones Audrey , coaxes her into the shop , and then tries to eat her . Seymour , returning in time to save Audrey , escapes the store with her . Explaining that he fed the plant to become successful and win Audrey 's heart , Seymour discovers she has always loved him . Approached by an executive from a botanical company named Patrick Martin ( Jim Belushi ) , Seymour is offered a contract to breed Audrey II and sell the saplings worldwide . Horrified by the idea , Seymour drives Martin away , and realizes he must destroy Audrey II for the sake of humanity . </P> <P> Returning to the shop , Seymour learns that Audrey II is actually an alien from outer space ( `` Mean Green Mother from Outer Space '' ) . Audrey II traps Seymour and destroys the shop , but Seymour grabs an exposed electrical cable and electrocutes Audrey II . Leaving the destroyed shop , Seymour safely reunites with Audrey . The two wed and move to the suburbs : arriving at their new home , which is the one seen in Audrey 's daydreams , a smiling Audrey II bud can be seen among the flowers in their front yard . </P> <H3> Original ending ( edit ) </H3> <P> During production , director Oz shot a 23 - minute ending based on the off - Broadway musical 's ending . However , after audiences at the preview screenings did not react positively to it , the ending had to be rewritten and re-shot for the theatrical release with a `` happier ending . '' </P> <P> In the original ending , when Audrey is attacked by the plant , Seymour pulls her from its jaws but is too late to save her , as she is mortally wounded . As she is dying she tells him what the plant said about Orin and Mushnik , and then Seymour confesses that he fed them to the plant . Audrey requests that Seymour feed her to the plant too so that it will live and Seymour can earn the success he deserves ( `` Somewhere That 's Green ( Reprise ) '' ) . After fulfilling her dying wish , he attempts suicide by jumping off the roof of a building , only to be stopped by Patrick Martin . Martin offers to reproduce and sell Audrey IIs and has already grown a smaller Audrey II from one of the clippings that he harvested earlier . He also warns Seymour that his consent is n't necessary , as plants are considered to be in the public domain . Realizing Audrey II is planning global domination , Seymour climbs down from the roof with the resolution to destroy the plant . Returning to the shop , he confronts and tries to kill Audrey II ,

The game was released worldwide on November 17 , 2017 for PlayStation 4 , Xbox One , and Microsoft Windows . </P> <P> Upon release , Battlefront II received mixed reviews from critics . The game was also subject to widespread criticism regarding the status of loot boxes , which could give players substantial gameplay advantages if purchased with real money . A response from EA 's community team on Reddit on the topic became the single most downvoted comment in the site 's history -- and in response , EA decided to temporarily remove microtransactions from the game until a later date . In January 2018 , EA announced that the micro-transactions will return `` in the next few months '' . These returning micro-transactions will be purely cosmetic , will not affect gameplay , and will also be available for purchase through in - game currency . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Gameplay <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Multiplayer </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Campaign <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Plot </Li> <Li> 2.2 Resurrection </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Development and marketing </Li> <Li> 4 Reception <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Sales </Li> <Li> 4.2 Accolades </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 Microtransactions controversy <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Government responses </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 References </Li> <Li> 7 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Gameplay </H2> Star Wars Battlefront II features gameplay from the Star Wars prequel films , a feature absent in the game 's predecessor . <P> Star Wars Battlefront II features a single - player story mode , a customizable character class system , and content based on The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi movies . It also features vehicles and locations from the original , prequel , and sequel Star Wars movie trilogies . It also features heroes and villains that can be played based on characters from the Star Wars movies ; the hero roster includes Luke Skywalker ( Matthew Mercer ) , Leia Organa ( Misty Lee ) , Han Solo ( John Armstrong ) , Chewbacca , Lando Calrissian ( Billy Dee Williams ) , Yoda ( Tom Kane ) , and Rey ( Daisy Ridley ) , while the villain roster includes Darth Vader ( Matt Sloan ) , Emperor Palpatine ( Sam Witwer ) , Boba Fett ( Temuera Morrison ) , Bossk ( Dee Bradley Baker ) , Iden Versio ( Janina Gavankar ) , Darth Maul ( Sam Witwer ) , and Kylo Ren ( Matthew Wood / Roger Craig Smith ) at launch . </P> <P> The game features a full campaign story mode unlike 2015 's Battlefront . The game 's single player protagonist , Iden Versio , leader of an Imperial Special Forces group known as Inferno Squad , participates in multiple events in the 30 years leading up to The Force Awakens . There will be segments in the campaign where the player will be able to control other characters such as Luke Skywalker and Kylo Ren . Players can also play in arcade mode -- an offline single player or local co-op where players can choose which side to play on and which battle to play in . Battles vary from team battles to onslaughts . Alternatively , players can choose to do a custom match , where they can change some of the settings and location . </P> <P> Instead of the paid Season Pass downloadable content ( DLC ) seen in the 2015 predecessor , this game is expanded with free DLC provided to all players with a free EA account . The DLC is free to all players , using a seasonal structure similar to Overwatch and Rainbow Six Siege , according to Gavankar . The first season , released in December 13 , 2017 , was based on the movie Star Wars : The Last Jedi , and included Finn ( John Boyega ) and Captain Phasma ( Gwendoline Christie ) as heroes , the planet Crait as a ground map , and a space map above D'Qar . </P> <H3> Multiplayer </H3> <P> Star Wars Battlefront II features five multiplayer game modes with the largest supporting up to 40 simultaneous players . Galactic Assault is centered around unique set pieces set across the eleven planets and locations featuring all three Star Wars eras involving a team of 20 attackers against 20 defenders . In Starfighter Assault , battles take place in space and planetary atmospheres involving 12 attackers against 12 defenders , both teams being reinforced with an additional 20 AI ships . Strike has players battling in close quarter scenarios involving a team of eight attackers aiming to capture a unique objective from a team of eight defenders ; essentially one team capture the flag . Heroes vs. Villains is an `` attack the target mode '' involving the heroes and villains in Star Wars Battlefront II based off Star Wars characters , where four light side heroes fight four dark side villains . One of the four heroes and one of the four villains are selected to be the target to attack . Blast , the final mode , is standard team deathmatch between two teams of 10 players in which teams try to reach 100 total combined eliminations before the enemy team can . Alongside an update released on February 19 , 2018 , a new temporary game mode , Jetpack Cargo , was released , in which two teams of eight battle to capture cargo while all players are equipped with a jet - pack . </P> <H2> Campaign </H2> <P> The single - player story mode campaign in Star Wars Battlefront II takes place in the Star Wars galaxy , beginning around the time of Return of the Jedi , but largely between it and Star Wars : The Force Awakens . Emperor Palpatine plots to lure an unsuspecting Rebel Alliance fleet into a trap using himself and the second Death Star , being constructed above the Forest Moon of Endor , as bait , seeking to crush the Rebellion against his Galactic Empire once and for all . The Imperial Special Forces commando unit Inferno Squad , led by Commander Iden Versio , daughter of Admiral Garrick Versio , and made up of Agents Gideon Hask and Del Meeko , is crucial to the success of this planned Battle of Endor , but the Empire underestimates the strength of the Rebellion as its fleet gathers at Sullust . </P> <H3> Plot </H3> <P> Iden Versio ( Janina Gavankar ) is being interrogated for the codes to unlock an Imperial transmission aboard a Rebel Mon Calamari Star Cruiser . She activates her droid , which sneaks to her cell and frees her . Iden had allowed herself to be captured in order to erase the Imperial transmission , which would reveal the Emperor 's plan at Endor . She successfully erases it , then escapes the ship by launching herself into space where she is intercepted by the Corvus , the flagship of Inferno Squad . Iden confirms the mission 's success to Gideon Hask ( Paul Blackthorne ) and Del Meeko ( TJ Ramini ) , other members of her squad . </P> <P> Later on Endor , Iden , Hask , and Meeko secure the perimeter around the ruined shield generator , and watch with shock and horror as the second Death Star explodes . Vice Admiral Sloane orders a full retreat , and Inferno Squad recovers TIE fighters to escape the moon , which is being overrun by Rebel forces . The Corvus is attacked during their escape , but Inferno fends off Rebel bombers . Iden meets with her father , Admiral Garrick Versio ( Anthony Skordi ) , on his Star Destroyer Eviscerator . </P> <P> Admiral Versio confirms to Iden that the Emperor has died . A messenger droid displays a hologram of the late Emperor issuing his last command : to begin Operation : Cinder . Admiral Versio sends Iden to an Imperial shipyard to protect Moff Raythe and his Star Destroyer Dauntless , which hosts experimental satellites vital to the success of Operation : Cinder . The Dauntless comes under attack from a Rebel Star Cruiser , but Iden is able to board it with Hask and disable its ion cannons . Afterwards , they are ordered to attack the Imperial shipyard in order to free the Star Destroyer from the locked clamps . Afterwards , the Dauntless opens fire on the Rebel cruiser , destroying it . </P> <P> Meeko is sent to Pillio and ordered to destroy one of the Emperor 's hidden bases . He encounters Luke Skywalker ( Matthew Mercer ) , who helps him disarm the base 's defenses and fend off the local wildlife . They discover that the base contains the Emperor 's spoils of conquest . Meeko and Luke part amicably , and Meeko begins to question the Empire 's goals and motives . Following this , Iden and Inferno Squad are sent to the Imperial - controlled world of Vardos , in order to retrieve Protectorate Gleb . As the satellites for Operation Cinder begin destroying the planet with terrible storms , Iden and Meeko try to evacuate the civilians in addition to Gleb , causing Agent Hask to betray them . Disillusioned by the Empire 's attack on Vardos , Iden and Meeko escape off world , now traitors to the Empire . They seek out the Rebel Alliance and are taken to General Lando Calrissian ( Billy Dee Williams ) , who gives them the choice to help stop Operation : Cinder , or to escape and make new lives for themselves . Choosing to help , they aid Leia Organa ( Misty Lee ) in protecting Naboo , destroying the satellites for Operation : Cinder and reactivating the planet 's defenses . After Naboo is liberated , Inferno Squad joins the New Republic . </P> <P> Iden and Inferno Squad

He was joined by Evan Jolly , Tom Howe , Paul Mounsey , and Andrew Kawczynski , who provided additional music . The soundtrack was released on CD , digital , and vinyl the same day as the film . Australian musician Sia sang a song for the film , titled `` To Be Human '' , featuring English musician Labrinth . Written by Florence Welch and Rick Nowels , the track is also featured on the soundtrack . </P> <P> Additional music featured in the film are : `` Another Little Drink Would n't Do Us Any Harm '' by Clifford Grey and Nat Ayer and performed by Edgar Trevor and Cecil Cooper ; `` Molly O'Morgan '' written by Fred Godfrey and Will Letters and performed by Ella Retford ; `` It 's a Long Way to Tipperary '' written by Jack Judge and Harry Williams ; `` Sous les ponts de Paris '' written by Jean Rodor and Vincent Scotto and performed by Lucienne Delyle ; `` I 'll Walk Beside You '' written by Edward Lockton and Alan Murray and performed by Ewen Bremner ; `` Green Grow the Rushes , O '' written by Robert Burns and performed by Ewen Bremner ; and `` Schatzwalzer Op. 4 '' written by Johann Strauss II and performed by the Berlin String Quartet . Also features samples from the movie 's soundtrack `` Is She with You '' from Batman v Superman : Dawn of Justice composed by Hans Zimmer and Junkie XL . </P> <H2> Release ( edit ) </H2> <P> Wonder Woman had its world premiere on May 15 , 2017 in Shanghai . It premiered on May 25 , 2017 in Los Angeles . The film 's London premiere , which was scheduled to take place on May 31 at the Odeon Leicester Square , was cancelled due to the 2017 Manchester Arena bombing . The film had its Latin America premiere in Mexico City on May 27 . It was released in most of the world , including in IMAX , on June 2 , 2017 , after originally being scheduled for June 23 . Belgium , Singapore and South Korea received the film first , with May 31 openings . On April 17 , it was announced that Wonder Woman would be released in China on June 2 , the same day as its North American release . </P> <H3> Marketing ( edit ) </H3> <P> The success of the superhero television series Supergirl informed the marketing and promotion strategy used for Wonder Woman . According to Time Warner chief marketing officer Kristen O'Hara , they wanted to approach the Wonder Woman marketing campaign in a light manner , similar to how they did with Supergirl . O'Hara elaborated that the modest campaign route they took for Supergirl aided in establishing a large central fanbase among women well in advance of the series , which reportedly generated 5 million female superhero fans in one week . They were then able to model over time , and grow that audience leading up to the 15 - months - later release of Wonder Woman . Though neither the film nor the series are aimed exclusively at women , the latter 's campaign gave them their first opportunity to begin collecting data about female superhero fans . In May 2017 , a promo for Wonder Woman was released during the season finale of Supergirl , featuring a remix of the song `` These Boots Are Made for Walkin ' '' and Supergirl ( Melissa Benoist ) wearing Wonder Woman 's boots . The promo included an appearance by Lynda Carter , star of the 1970s Wonder Woman , who plays the American president on Supergirl . </P> <P> The costs for television advertisements for Wonder Woman are higher in comparison to that of previous DCEU film Suicide Squad . Warner Bros. has spent over $3 million on advertisements for Wonder Woman , whereas they spent $2.6 million on advertisements for Suicide Squad . Ticket selling site Fandango reported that Wonder Woman rounded the final leg of its marketing campaign as the most anticipated blockbuster of summer 2017 , according to a poll conducted by 10,000 voters , the biggest survey in company history . Separately , Fandango also found that 92 % of people surveyed said that they are looking forward to seeing a film that features a standalone woman superhero , and 87 % wished Hollywood would make more women - led superhero films . In May 2017 , NASCAR driver Danica Patrick drove her No. 10 car with a Wonder Woman paint scheme at the Go Bowling 400 in Kansas and at the Monster Energy Open in Charlotte . </P> <H3> Home Media ( edit ) </H3> <P> Wonder Woman was released on Digital HD on August 29 , 2017 and on Blu - ray , Blu - ray 3D , 4K Ultra-HD Blu - ray and DVD on September 19 , 2017 . The film debuted at the top spot of both the NPD VideoScan overall disc sales chart and the Blu - ray Disc sales chart . </P> <H3> Controversies ( edit ) </H3> Bans ( edit ) <P> On May 31 , Wonder Woman was banned in Lebanon after the Campaign to Boycott Supporters of Israel asked the Lebanese government 's Ministry of Economy and Trade to block the film because its star , Gal Gadot , is Israeli . The Lebanese government did not , however , ban Gadot 's Fast & Furious films which did screen in Lebanon . On June 7 , Variety reported that a Tunisian court suspended the theatrical release of Wonder Woman after a lawsuit brought by the Al - Chaab party and the Tunisian Association of Young Lawyers to have the film blocked due to Gadot 's Israeli citizenship , military service , and public comments in support of the Israeli military during the 2014 war in Gaza . Jordan was reportedly also considering a ban of the film and suspended screenings pending a decision , but on June 11 , Al Bawaba reported that the government decided not to do so , as there was no legal precedent for it . </P> Women - only screenings ( edit ) <P> Some men were unhappy with women - only screenings held at the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema in Austin , with some opponents of the gender - restricted screening stating on platforms such as Facebook that such screenings were discriminatory against men . </P> <P> An Albany Law School professor initiated a complaint with Austin 's Equal Employment and Fair Housing Office claiming discrimination against male prospective customers and employees of the theater . The chain responded with an online statement saying the event `` may have created confusion -- we want everybody to see this film '' and announced a similar event at their Brooklyn location . Tickets sold out in less than an hour , prompting the chain to schedule additional screenings . On July 18 , Alamo Drafthouse proposed settlement offers of a Wonder Woman DVD to the complainants , stating `` Respondent did not realize that advertising a ' women 's only ' screening was a violation of discrimination laws '' </P> <H2> Reception ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Box Office ( edit ) </H3> <P> Wonder Woman grossed $412.6 million in the United States and Canada and $409.3 million in other territories for a worldwide total of $821.9 million , against a production budget of $149 million . Estimates for the number the film needed to surpass internationally in order to cover its production and promotional costs and break even ranged from $300 million to $460 million . </P> North America ( edit ) <P> In May 2017 , early tracking had Wonder Woman opening with $65 -- 75 million , and possibly as high as $105 million . The film opened Friday , June 2 , 2017 , across 4,165 theaters and made $38.7 million on its opening day , including $3.7 million in IMAX . It was the biggest single - day gross for a woman - directed film , ahead of the $35.9 million opening Friday of Catherine Hardwicke 's Twilight in 2008 and the biggest opening day for a woman - led comic book superhero film , ahead of Ghost in the Shell ( $7 million ) . This included $11 million it made from Thursday previews , also the best start for a film directed by a woman , surpassing Fifty Shades of Grey 's $8.6 million which was directed by Sam Taylor - Johnson , and the third - biggest of the year , behind Beauty and the Beast and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 . Of that , $1.5 million came from IMAX screenings . </P> <P> Earning a total of $103.3 million on its opening weekend , the film recorded a number of records : the biggest domestic opening of all time for a female director ( surpassing previous record holder Fifty Shades of Grey by Sam Taylor - Johnson ) , the biggest DC Comics release without Batman or Superman ( ahead of Constantine ) , the sixth - biggest non-sequel comic book superhero debut ever , as well as the sixth - biggest June debut weekend . Its three - day opening alone made it the highest - grossing woman - led comic book superhero film ever ( surpassing Ghost in the Shell ) . It was also the 16th superhero film to cross $100 million in its domestic box office launch . About 9 % ( $9 million ) of the opening weekend came from IMAX screenings from 343 theaters . In its second week the film grossed $58.5 million , again topping the box office . It marked a 43.3 % drop for its second weekend at the box office , better than the average 50 -- 60 % decline superhero films tend to see , and was a better second weekend than Batman v Superman : Dawn of Justice ( $51.3 million ) and Suicide Squad ( $43.5 million ) . In its third weekend it grossed $40.8 million , finishing second behind newcomer Cars 3 ( $53.5 million ) . It was the second - best third weekend ever for Warner Bros. and was nearly double what Batman v Superman ( $23.3 million ) , Suicide Squad ( $20.9 million ) and Man of Steel ( $20.7 million ) made in their third weekends . It earned $24.9 million and $15.7 million in its fourth and fifth weekends , respectively , dropping just 39 % and 36 % despite facing rough competition from opening films Transformers : The Last Knight and Despicable Me 3 . It eventually became the highest - grossing film directed by a woman , surpassing the previous records of Jennifer Yuh Nelson 's Kung Fu Panda 2 and Phyllida Lloyd 's Mamma Mia ! . By August 8 , the film had garnered $400 million in ticket sales , becoming

He played one year of college basketball for the Memphis Tigers before being drafted first overall by his hometown Chicago Bulls in the 2008 NBA draft . After being named the NBA Rookie of the Year , Rose , at age 22 , became the youngest player to win the NBA Most Valuable Player Award in 2011 . </P> <P> Rose was born and raised in the Chicago area , and attended Simeon Career Academy . He was highly recruited by NCAA scouts and coaches , eventually choosing to join the University of Memphis under coach John Calipari . Rose led the Memphis Tigers to the most wins in NCAA history ( a 38 -- 2 record ) , their first number one ranking in 25 years , and an appearance in the NCAA championship game . In 2009 , an NCAA investigation revealed that Rose 's SAT scores had been invalidated , and as a result , the NCAA vacated Memphis ' entire 2007 -- 08 season . </P> <P> Rose has struggled with significant knee injuries since his 2010 -- 11 MVP campaign . In the first round of the 2012 NBA Playoffs against the Philadelphia 76ers , Rose tore his ACL in his left knee . Rose required surgery and was subsequently sidelined for the entire 2012 -- 13 season . Rose returned to play in 2013 -- 14 . However , on November 22 , 2013 , during a regular season game against the Portland Trail Blazers , Rose injured his right meniscus which caused him to miss the remainder of the season . Rose returned once again the following season , but knee injuries continued to riddle him , causing him to miss 30 games . In June 2016 , he was traded to the New York Knicks . After one season with the Knicks , Rose joined the Cleveland Cavaliers in July 2017 , but was traded and subsequently released by the Utah Jazz the following February . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Early life </Li> <Li> 2 High school career </Li> <Li> 3 College career <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Grading controversy </Li> <Li> 3.2 College statistics </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 NBA career <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Chicago Bulls ( 2008 -- 2016 ) <Ul> <Li> 4.1. 1 2008 -- 09 season : Rookie of the Year </Li> <Li> 4.1. 2 2009 -- 10 season : First All - Star season </Li> <Li> 4.1. 3 2010 -- 11 season : MVP / Number one seed </Li> <Li> 4.1. 4 2011 -- 12 season : Playoff appearance / ACL tear </Li> <Li> 4.1. 5 2012 -- 13 season : Year absence </Li> <Li> 4.1. 6 2013 -- 14 season : Return / Torn meniscus </Li> <Li> 4.1. 7 2014 -- 15 season : Back to the playoffs </Li> <Li> 4.1. 8 2015 -- 16 season : Final season with the Bulls </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4.2 New York Knicks ( 2016 -- 2017 ) </Li> <Li> 4.3 Cleveland Cavaliers ( 2017 -- 2018 ) </Li> <Li> 4.4 Minnesota Timberwolves ( 2018 -- present ) </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 National team career </Li> <Li> 6 Player profile </Li> <Li> 7 NBA career statistics <Ul> <Li> 7.1 Regular season </Li> <Li> 7.2 Playoffs </Li> <Li> 7.3 Career highs <Ul> <Li> 7.3. 1 Regular season </Li> <Li> 7.3. 2 Playoffs </Li> </Ul> </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 8 Accomplishments and awards <Ul> <Li> 8.1 NBA </Li> <Li> 8.2 College </Li> <Li> 8.3 High school </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 9 Personal life </Li> <Li> 10 Endorsements </Li> <Li> 11 See also </Li> <Li> 12 References </Li> <Li> 13 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Early life </H2> <P> Rose was born and raised in the Englewood area , one of the most dangerous neighborhoods on Chicago 's South Side . He is the youngest son of Brenda Rose after Dwayne , Reggie , and Allan . All three were talented basketball players who taught Rose the in and outs of basketball on nearby courts . As his talent for the sport grew , Rose began to attract much more outside attention in Chicago 's basketball circles , leading his mother and brothers to restrict outside contact to him . She feared he would be exploited and his path to the NBA diverted by outside parties like street agents , similar to what happened to former Chicago prospect Ronnie Fields . </P> <H2> High school career </H2> <P> By the time Rose enrolled at Simeon Career Academy in 2003 , he was a hot commodity for collegiate coaches . Despite his reputation , he played freshmen and JV basketball for the Wolverines . He wore No. 25 in honor of Ben `` Benji '' Wilson , a promising player who was murdered by a gang member during his senior year in 1984 . Rose was not allowed on varsity due to a long - standing tradition that head coach Bob Hambric , who had been with the school since 1980 had no freshmen on the varsity team . That rule did not lessen Rose 's play , and he went on to put up 18.5 points , 6.6 assists , 4.7 rebounds and 2.1 steals per game and led both the freshmen and sophomores to city championships with a 24 -- 1 record . Hambric softened his stance and allowed the freshman a chance to play on varsity in the state tournament , but Rose declined , wanting the players to get due credit . The next year Hambric retired and Robert Smith was hired , opening the path to varsity . In Rose 's debut , he had 22 points , 7 rebounds and 5 steals over Thornwood High School in a sold - out game filled with college scouts and coaches . He led the Wolverines to a 30 -- 5 mark while averaging 19.8 points , 5.1 rebounds , 8.3 assists and 2.4 steals but the season ended after a loss in state regionals . Rose 's play garnered him his first national award : a Parade All - American third team spot . </P> <P> During Rose 's junior year in 2006 , the Simeon Wolverines broke through and won the Chicago Public League championship held at the United Center , where Rose starred with 25 points and crowd pleasing dunks . The team advanced through the playoffs and earned a berth in the Class AA state championship against Richwoods High School , where a fourth quarter buzzer beater by Richwood forced overtime . The score was knotted at 29 late in the extra period when Rose stole the ball and buried the game winning jumper as time expired , giving Simeon its first state title since the Wilson - led Wolverines won in 1984 . The team finished 33 -- 4 and ranked nationally , and Rose was awarded with an All - State Illinois mention , EA Sports All - American Second Team pick and another Parade All - American selection . </P> <P> Entering his senior year , Rose was ranked the fifth best prospect in the nation by Sports Illustrated . In January 2007 , Simeon traveled to Madison Square Garden to play Rice High School and star guard Kemba Walker . The Wolverines lost 53 -- 51 . The season 's highlight was a nationally televised contest on ESPN against Virginia perennial power Oak Hill Academy two weeks later . Matched up with hyped junior guard Brandon Jennings , Rose had 28 points , 9 assists , and 8 rebounds and in a 78 -- 75 win . For his performance , USA Today named him their high school player of the week . Simeon went on to repeat as Public League champions and defended their state championship , defeating O'Fallon High School 77 -- 54 . In doing so , Simeon became the first Chicago Public League school to win two straight state championships . In his final high school game , Rose scored 2 points , but pulled down 7 rebounds and totaled 8 assists , while Simeon big man Tim Flowers scored 35 points . The Wolverines ended the season 33 -- 2 and ranked first in the nation by Sports Illustrated and 6th on USA Today 's Super 25 . Rose averaged 25.2 points , 9.1 assists , 8.8 rebounds and 3.4 steals . </P> <P> Overall , Simeon 's record while Rose played was 120 -- 12 . After his senior year , Rose was again All - State after being named Illinois Mr. Basketball and was named to the McDonald 's All - American team . He was also awarded with First Team honors by Parade selection and USA Today and USA Today First Team All - American . </P> <P> Rose was selected to play in the Jordan Brand All - Star Game and Nike Hoop Summit . In 2009 , Rose was named the decade 's third greatest high school point guard by ESPN RISE magazine behind Chris Paul and T.J. Ford , and had his jersey number ( # 25 ) retired along with Ben Wilson . </P> <H2> College career </H2> Rose while playing at the University of Memphis <P> Rose accepted a scholarship to play for the University of Memphis Tigers under John Calipari , who recruited him after seeing him play in an AAU game .

Philosophia et septem artes liberales , The seven liberal arts -- Picture from the Hortus deliciarum of Herrad of Landsberg ( 12th century ) <P> Liberal arts education ( Latin : liberalis , free and ars , art or principled practice ) can claim to be the oldest programme of higher education in Western history . It has its origin in the attempt to discover first principles -- ' those universal principles which are the condition of the possibility of the existence of anything and everything ' . The liberal arts are those subjects or skills that in classical antiquity were considered essential for a free person ( Latin : liberalis , `` worthy of a free person '' ) to know in order to take an active part in civic life , something that ( for Ancient Greece ) included participating in public debate , defending oneself in court , serving on juries , and most importantly , military service . Grammar , logic , and rhetoric were the core liberal arts ( the Trivium ) , while arithmetic , geometry , the theory of music , and astronomy also played a ( somewhat lesser ) part in education ( as the Quadrivium ) . </P> <P> Liberal arts education can refer to academic subjects such as literature , philosophy , mathematics , and social and physical sciences , or it can also refer to overall studies in a liberal arts degree program . For both interpretations , the term generally refers to matters not relating to the professional , vocational , or technical curriculum . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History </Li> <Li> 2 Modern usage </Li> <Li> 3 Secondary school </Li> <Li> 4 In the United States </Li> <Li> 5 In Europe </Li> <Li> 6 In Asia </Li> <Li> 7 In Australia </Li> <Li> 8 See also </Li> <Li> 9 References </Li> <Li> 10 Further reading </Li> <Li> 11 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> Page from Marriage of Mercury and Philology <P> Rooted in the basic curriculum -- the enkuklios paideia or `` education in a circle '' -- of late Classical and Hellenistic Greece , the `` liberal arts '' or `` liberal pursuits '' ( Latin liberalia studia ) were already so called in formal education during the Roman Empire . The first recorded use of the term `` liberal arts '' ( artes liberales ) occurs in De Inventione by Marcus Tullius Cicero , but it is unclear if he created the term . Seneca the Younger discusses liberal arts in education from a critical Stoic point of view in Moral Epistle 88 . The exact classification of the liberal arts varied however in Roman times , and it was only after Martianus Capella in the 5th century AD influentially brought the seven liberal arts as bridesmaids to the Marriage of Mercury and Philology , that they took on canonical form . </P> <P> </P> <P> The four ' scientific ' artes -- music , arithmetic , geometry and astronomy ( or astrology ) -- were known from the time of Boethius onwards as the Quadrivium . After the 9th century , the remaining three arts of the ' humanities ' -- grammar , logic , and rhetoric -- were classed as well , as the Trivium . It was in that two-fold form that the seven liberal arts were studied in the medieval Western university . During the Middle Ages , logic gradually came to take predominance over the other parts of the Trivium . </P> <P> In the Renaissance , the Italian humanists and their Northern counterparts , despite in many respects continuing the traditions of the Middle Ages , reversed that process . Re-christening the old Trivium with a new and more ambitious name : Studia humanitatis , and also increasing its scope , they downplayed logic as opposed to the traditional Latin grammar and rhetoric , and added to them history , Greek , and moral philosophy ( ethics ) , with a new emphasis on poetry as well . The educational curriculum of humanism spread throughout Europe during the sixteenth century and became the educational foundation for the schooling of European elites , the functionaries of political administration , the clergy of the various legally recognized churches , and the learned professions of law and medicine . The ideal of a liberal arts , or humanistic education grounded in classical languages and literature , persisted until the middle of the twentieth century . </P> <H2> Modern usage ( edit ) </H2> <P> Some subsections of the liberal arts are in the trivium -- the verbal arts : grammar , logic , and rhetoric ; and in the quadrivium -- the numerical arts : arithmetic , geometry , music , and astronomy . Analyzing and interpreting information is also included . </P> <P> Academic areas that are associated with the term liberal arts include : </P> <Ul> <Li> Arts ( fine arts , music , performing arts , literature ) </Li> <Li> Mathematics </Li> <Li> Natural science ( biology , chemistry , physics , astronomy , earth science ) </Li> <Li> Philosophy </Li> <Li> Religious studies </Li> <Li> Social science ( anthropology , economics , geography , history , jurisprudence , linguistics , political science , psychology , sociology ) </Li> </Ul> <P> For example , the core courses for Georgetown University 's Doctor of Liberal Studies program cover philosophy , theology , history , art , literature , and the social sciences . Wesleyan University 's Master of Arts in Liberal Studies program includes courses in visual arts , art history , creative and professional writing , literature , history , mathematics , film , government , education , biology , psychology , and astronomy . </P> <H2> Secondary school ( edit ) </H2> <P> The liberal arts education at the secondary school level prepares the student for higher education at a university . They are thus meant for the more academically minded students . In addition to the usual curriculum , students of a liberal arts education often study Latin and Ancient Greek . </P> <P> Some liberal arts education provide general education , others have a specific focus . ( This also differs from country to country . ) The four traditional branches are : </P> <Ul> <Li> humanities education ( specializing in classical languages , such as Latin and Greek ) </Li> <Li> modern languages ( students are required to study at least three languages ) </Li> <Li> mathematical - scientific education </Li> <Li> economical and social - scientific education ( students are required to study economics , world history , social studies and business informatics ) </Li> </Ul> <P> Curricula differ from school to school , but generally include language , mathematics , informatics , physics , chemistry , biology , geography , art ( as well as crafts and design ) , music , history , philosophy , civics / citizenship , social sciences , and several foreign languages . </P> <P> Schools concentrate not only on academic subjects , but on producing well - rounded individuals , so physical education and religion or ethics are compulsory , even in non-denominational schools which are prevalent . For example , the German constitution guarantees the separation of church and state , so although religion or ethics classes are compulsory , students may choose to study a specific religion or none at all . </P> <P> Today , a number of other areas of specialization exist , such as gymnasiums specializing in economics , technology or domestic sciences . In some countries , there is a notion of progymnasium , which is equivalent to beginning classes of the full gymnasium , with the rights to continue education in a gymnasium . Here , the prefix `` pro '' is equivalent to `` pre '' . </P> <H2> In the United States ( edit ) </H2> Main article : Liberal arts college Further information : Liberal arts colleges in the United States and Great books <P> In the United States , liberal arts colleges are schools emphasizing undergraduate study in the liberal arts . The teaching at liberal arts colleges is often Socratic , typically with small classes , and often has a lower student - to - teacher ratio than at large universities ; professors teaching classes are often allowed to concentrate more on their teaching responsibilities than primary research professors or graduate student teaching assistants in universities . </P> <P> In addition , most four - year colleges that are not devoted exclusively or primarily to liberal arts degrees also offer those degrees , and students not majoring in liberal arts take courses to satisfy distribution requirements in liberal arts . </P> <P> Traditionally , a bachelor 's degree either in liberal arts in general or in one particular area within liberal arts , with substantial study outside that main area , is earned over four years of full - time study . However , some universities such as Saint Leo University , Pennsylvania State University , Florida Institute of Technology and New England College have begun to offer an associate degree in liberal arts . Colleges like New Saint Andrews College in Moscow , Idaho , offer a unique program with only one degree offering , a Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies , and colleges like the University of Oklahoma College of Liberal Studies offers an online , part - time option for adult and nontraditional students . </P> <P> Most students earn either a Bachelor of Arts degree or a Bachelor of Science degree ; on completing undergraduate study , students might progress to either a liberal arts graduate school or a professional school ( public administration , engineering , business , law , medicine , theology ) . </P> <H2> In Europe ( edit ) </H2> <P> In most parts of Europe , liberal arts education is deeply rooted . In Germany , Austria and countries influenced by their education system , e.g. it is called `` humanistische Bildung '' ( humanistic education ) . The term is not to be mixed up with some modern educational concepts that use a similar wording . Educational institutions that see themselves in that tradition are often a `` Gymnasium '' ( high school , grammar school ) . They aim at providing their pupils with comprehensive education ( Bildung ) in order to form personality with regard to a pupil 's own humanity as well as his / her innate intellectual skills . Going back to the long tradition of the liberal arts in Europe , education in the above sense was freed from scholastic thinking and re-shaped by the theorists of enlightenment . In particular , Wilhelm von Humboldt played a key role in that regard . Since students are considered to have received a comprehensive liberal arts education at grammar schools , very often , the role of liberal arts education in undergraduate education at universities is reduced compared to the US educational system . Students are expected to use their skills received at the grammar school in order to further develop their personality in their own responsibility , e.g. in universities ' music clubs , theatre groups , language clubs etc . Universities encourage students to do so and offer respective opportunities but do not make such activities part of the university 's curriculum . </P> <P> Thus , on the level of higher education , despite the European origin of the liberal arts college , the term liberal arts college usually denotes liberal arts colleges in the United States . With the exception of pioneering institutions such as Franklin University Switzerland ( formerly known as Franklin College ) , established as a Europe - based , US - style liberal arts college in 1969 , only recently some

Government of West Virginia - wikipedia <H1> Government of West Virginia </H1> Jump to : navigation , search West Virginia Capitol Building . <P> The Government of West Virginia is modeled after the Government of the United States , with three branches : the executive , consisting of the Governor of West Virginia and the other elected constitutional officers ; the legislative , consisting of the West Virginia Legislature which includes the Senate and the House of Delegates ; and the judicial , consisting of the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals and lower courts . </P> <P> The capital and seat of government in West Virginia is the city of Charleston , located in the southwest area of the state . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Legislative branch </Li> <Li> 2 Executive branch </Li> <Li> 3 Judicial branch </Li> <Li> 4 Political history </Li> <Li> 5 Local government </Li> <Li> 6 See also </Li> <Li> 7 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Legislative branch ( edit ) </H2> <P> Like all states except Nebraska , West Virginia has a bicameral state legislature , the West Virginia Legislature . The lower house is the West Virginia House of Delegates and the upper house is the Senate . The West Virginia Legislature is a citizen 's legislature or part - time legislature . </P> <P> The West Virginia Constitution imposes a limit of 60 calendar days the length of the regular session . Regular sessions of the Legislature commence on the second Wednesday of January of each year ; following the election of a new governor , the session starts in January with the governor 's address but then adjourns until February . The session may be extended by concurrent resolution adopted by a two - thirds vote of each house . The governor may also call legislators to convene in special sessions whenever the governor deems one or more issues of state government in need of timely action by the Legislature . The final day of the regular session usually includes last - minute legislation in order to meet a constitutionally - imposed deadline of midnight . Legislators usually do not make it a full - time occupation , but frequently hold a full - time job in their community of residence . This differs from neighboring states such as Pennsylvania and Ohio , who have professional full - time legislatures . </P> <P> The House of Delegates has 100 members . All delegates are elected to two - year terms and are up for election in even - numbered years , elected from 67 districts that elect a varying number of members . </P> <H2> Executive branch ( edit ) </H2> <P> The chief executive of West Virginia is the governor of West Virginia , who is elected to a four - year term at the same time as presidential elections . The governor is sworn in the January following the November election . A governor may only serve two consecutive terms . A governor may run for a third term , but an interceding election must occur . Democrat Jim Justice was elected governor in 2016 , defeating Bill Cole in the general election . </P> <P> In addition to the governor , there are five other directly elected executive offices : </P> <Ul> <Li> Secretary of State of West Virginia ( currently Republican Mac Warner ) </Li> <Li> West Virginia Attorney General ( currently Republican Patrick Morrisey ) </Li> <Li> West Virginia Commissioner of Agriculture ( currently Republican Kent Leonhardt ) </Li> <Li> Auditor ( currently Republican John McCuskey ) </Li> <Li> Treasurer ( currently Democrat John Perdue ) </Li> </Ul> <P> Regular elections are held concurrently with the election for governor every four years , but unlike the governor these offices have no term limits . </P> See also : List of West Virginia state agencies <H2> Judicial branch ( edit ) </H2> <P> The state trial courts of general jurisdiction are the West Virginia Circuit Courts , There are 31 judicial circuits , each made up of one or more counties , with a total of 70 Circuit Judges . Domestic cases are handled by Family Courts . There are 27 Family Court Circuits with a total of 45 judges . Local judges are elected in partisan elections to serve eight - year terms on a partisan basis . Small claims and misdemeanor case are heard by magistrates elected for four years , with between two and ten in each county , based on population . Magistrates are not lawyers . </P> <P> The West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals is the state supreme court . It purports itself to be the busiest appellate court of its type in the United States , in part because West Virginia is one of only 11 states to not have an intermediate appellate court . ( The West Virginia Constitution allows for the creation of an intermediate court of appeals , but the Legislature has never done so . ) The Supreme Court of Appeals has five justices . Justices must have practiced law for at least ten years . The five justices are elected in partisan elections to 12 - year terms . The current justices are Justice Brent Benjamin , Justice Robin Davis , Justice Margaret Workman , Justice Allen Loughry , and Justice Menis Ketchum . By tradition , the position of `` Chief Justice '' rotates yearly . It primarily brings extra administrative duties . </P> <H2> Political history ( edit ) </H2> Main article : Politics of West Virginia <P> From the 1930s through the 1990s , West Virginia 's politics were largely dominated by the Democratic Party , and Democrats still dominate most local and state offices . West Virginia also has a very strong tradition of trade union membership . </P> <P> In presidential elections , the state 's electoral votes went to Democratic tradition by supporting Democrat Bill Clinton in 1992 and 1996 , who won the state by large margins , but the state 's five electoral votes went to George W. Bush in 2000 and 2004 ( when Bush won by 13 percentage points ) and to John McCain in 2008 . </P> <P> The most consistent support for Democrats is found in the coal fields of southern West Virginia ( especially McDowell , Mingo , Logan , Wyoming , and Boone counties ) , while Republicans find greatest success to the east of the Allegheny Mountains , especially in the state 's Eastern Panhandle , and in the suburbs near Charleston and Huntington . </P> <H2> Local government ( edit ) </H2> <P> As in Virginia , the county is the unit of government , although an unsuccessful attempt to introduce the township system was made in West Virginia 's first constitution . </P> <P> Each of the state 's 55 counties have a county commission , consisting of three commissioners elected for six years but with terms so arranged that one retires every two years , which is the legislative and fiscal authority . The county commissions were originally called county courts before legal reform stripped the commissions of their judicial powers in 1976 . The county commission still retains the judicial function as the probate court , however . </P> <P> Other officers are the County Clerk , whose primary duties are as recorder of deeds and voter 's registrar ; and a Circuit Clerk , who records acts of the Family and Circuit courts , both elected for six year terms on a partisan basis ; the sheriff , who has law enforcement and tax collection authority ; the Prosecuting Attorney , who must be a lawyer and who not only handles criminal cases buy also does the civil litigation for the county ; an Assessor ( the Constitution provides for a possibility of two , but no county has ever adopted that system ) , who determines the value of land for tax purposes and a surveyor of lands . All of the non-clerk jobs are elected on a partisan basis for four year terms . The sheriff is term limited to two consecutive terms . In addition , there are boards appointed or elected by various authorities and charged with specific duties . They include the local board of health and the board of jury commissioners . </P> <P> There is also a Board of Education , which is elected on a non-partisan basis , consisting of five members elected with overlapping terms similar to the county commission . </P> <H2> See also ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> Mountain Party </Li> <Li> List of Governors of West Virginia </Li> <Li> U.S. Congressional Delegations from West Virginia </Li> <Li> Elections in West Virginia </Li> </Ul> <H2> External links ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> State of West Virginia Government <Ul> <Li> West Virginia Legislature Homepage </Li> <Li> Supreme Court of Appeals of West Virginia Homepage </Li> <Li> Constitution of West Virginia </Li> <Li> West Virginia Code </Li> </Ul> </Li> </Ul> <Table> <Tr> <Th colspan="3"> <Ul> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> </Ul> State of West Virginia </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td colspan="3"> Charleston ( capital ) </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Topics </Th> <Td> <Ul> <Li> Cities </Li> <Li> Towns </Li> <Li> Villages </Li> <Li> Census - designated places </Li> <Li> History </Li> <Li> Environment </Li> <Li> People </Li> <Li> Government <Ul> <Li> Governors </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> Delegations </Li> <Li> Colleges and universities </Li> <Li> Tourist attractions </Li> </Ul> </Td> <Td> Seal of West Virginia </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Society </Th> <Td> <Ul> <Li> Culture </Li> <Li> Crime </Li> <Li> Demographics </Li> <Li> Economy </Li> <Li> Education </Li> <Li> Elections </Li> <Li> Media <Ul> <Li> Newspapers </Li> <Li> Radio </Li> <Li> TV </Li> </Ul> </Li> </Ul> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Insignia </Th> <Td> <Ul> <Li> Coat of arms </Li> <Li> Flag </Li> <Li> Motto </Li> <Li> Seal </Li> </Ul> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Regions </Th> <Td> <Ul> <Li> Allegheny Mountains </Li> <Li> Allegheny Plateau </Li> <Li> Baltimore - Washington Metropolitan Area </Li> <Li> Blue Ridge </Li> <Li> Charleston Metropolitan Area </Li> <Li> Cumberland Plateau </Li> <Li> Cumberland Mountains </Li> <Li> Eastern Panhandle </Li> <Li> Huntington Metropolitan Area </Li> <Li> North - Central West Virginia </Li> <Li> Northern Panhandle </Li> <Li> Potomac Highlands </Li> <Li> Ridge - and - Valley Appalachians </Li> <Li> Shenandoah Valley </Li> <Li> Southern West Virginia </Li> <Li> Western West Virginia </Li> </Ul> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Metro areas </Th> <Td> <Ul> <Li> Charleston </Li> <Li> Huntington </Li> <Li> Morgantown </Li> <Li> Martinsburg </Li> <Li> Parkersburg - Vienna </Li> <Li> Wheeling </Li> <Li> Winchester </Li> <Li> Weirton </Li> </Ul> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Largest cities </Th> <Td> <Ul> <Li> Beckley </Li> <Li> Charleston </Li> <Li> Fairmont </Li> <Li> Huntington </Li> <Li> Martinsburg </Li> <Li> Morgantown </Li> <Li> Parkersburg </Li> <Li> Wheeling </Li> <Li> Weirton </Li> </Ul> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Counties </Th> <Td> <Ul> <Li> Barbour </Li> <Li> Berkeley </Li> <Li> Boone </Li> <Li> Braxton </Li> <Li> Brooke </Li> <Li> Cabell </Li> <Li> Calhoun </Li> <Li> Clay </Li> <Li> Doddridge </Li> <Li> Fayette </Li> <Li> Gilmer </Li> <Li> Grant </Li> <Li> Greenbrier </Li> <Li> Hampshire </Li> <Li> Hancock </Li> <Li> Hardy </Li> <Li> Harrison </Li> <Li> Jackson </Li> <Li> Jefferson </Li> <Li> Kanawha </Li> <Li> Lewis </Li> <Li> Lincoln </Li> <Li> Logan </Li> <Li> Marion </Li> <Li> Marshall </Li> <Li> Mason </Li> <Li> McDowell </Li> <Li> Mercer </Li> <Li> Mineral </Li> <Li> Mingo </Li> <Li> Monongalia </Li> <Li> Monroe </Li> <Li> Morgan </Li> <Li> Nicholas </Li> <Li> Ohio </Li> <Li> Pendleton </Li> <Li> Pleasants </Li> <Li> Pocahontas </Li> <Li> Preston </Li> <Li> Putnam </Li> <Li> Raleigh </Li> <Li> Randolph </Li> <Li> Ritchie </Li> <Li> Roane </Li> <Li> Summers </Li> <Li> Taylor </Li> <Li> Tucker </Li> <Li> Tyler </Li> <Li> Upshur </Li> <Li> Wayne </Li> <Li> Webster </Li> <Li> Wetzel </Li> <Li> Wirt </Li> <Li> Wood </Li> <Li> Wyoming </Li> </Ul> </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Table> <Tr> <Th colspan="2"> <Ul> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> </Ul> State governments of the United States </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> States </Th> <Td> <Ul> <Li> Alabama </Li> <Li> Alaska </Li> <Li> Arizona </Li> <Li> Arkansas </Li> <Li> California

Since 1940 they have been close military allies enjoying the Special Relationship built as wartime allies , and NATO partners . </P> <P> The two nations are bound together by shared history , an overlap in religion and a common language and legal system , and kinship ties that reach back hundreds of years , including kindred , ancestral lines among English Americans , Scottish Americans , Welsh Americans , Scotch - Irish Americans and American Britons respectively . Today large numbers of expatriates live in both countries . </P> <P> Through times of war and rebellion , peace and estrangement , as well as becoming friends and allies , Britain and the US cemented these deeply rooted links during World War II into what is known as the `` Special Relationship . '' In long - term perspective , the historian Paul Johnson has called it the `` cornerstone of the modern , democratic world order '' . </P> <P> In the early 20th century , the United Kingdom affirmed its relationship with the United States as its `` most important bilateral partnership '' in the current British foreign policy , and the American foreign policy also affirms its relationship with Britain as its most important relationship , as evidenced in aligned political affairs , mutual cooperation in the areas of trade , commerce , finance , technology , academics , as well as the arts and sciences ; the sharing of government and military intelligence , and joint combat operations and peacekeeping missions carried out between the United States Armed Forces and the British Armed Forces . Canada has historically been the largest importer of U.S. goods and the principal exporter of goods to the USA . As of January 2015 the UK was fifth in terms of exports and seventh in terms of import of goods . </P> <P> The two countries also have had a significant impact of the cultures of many other countries .

See also : Thirteen Colonies <P> After several failed attempts , the first permanent English settlement in mainland North America was established in 1607 at Jamestown in the Colony and Dominion of Virginia . By 1624 , the Colony and Dominion of Virginia ceased to be a charter colony administered by the Virginia Company of London and became a crown colony . The Pilgrims were a small Protestant sect based in England and Amsterdam ; they sent a group of settlers on the Mayflower . After drawing up the Mayflower Compact by which they gave themselves broad powers of self - governance , they established the small Plymouth Colony in 1620 . In 1630 the Puritans established the much larger Massachusetts Bay Colony ; they sought to reform the Church of England by creating a new and `` more pure '' church in the New World . </P> <P> Other colonies followed in Province of Maine ( 1622 ) , Province of Maryland ( 1632 ) , Colony of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations ( 1636 ) and Connecticut Colony ( 1636 ) . Later came the founding of Province of Carolina ( 1663 ) ( divided in 1729 into the Province of North Carolina and the Province of South Carolina ) . The Province of New Hampshire was founded in 1691 . Next came the Province of Georgia in 1732 . </P> <P> The Province of New York was formed from the conquered Dutch colony of New Netherland . In 1674 , the Province of New Jersey was split off from New York .

In the century after the Acts of Union 1707 this was surpassed in rate and number by Scottish and Irish migrants . </P> <P> During British settler colonization , liberal administrative , juridical , and market institutions were introduced , positively associated with socioeconomic development . At the same time , colonial policy was also quasi-mercantilist , encouraging trade within the Empire , discouraging trade with other powers , and discouraging the rise of manufacturing in the colonies , which had been established to increase the trade and wealth of the mother country . Britain made much greater profits from the sugar trade of its commercial colonies in the Caribbean . </P> <P> The introduction of coercive labor institutions was another feature of the colonial period . All of the Thirteen Colonies were involved in the slave trade . Slaves in the Middle Colonies and New

Alice Cooper claims his song `` The Man With The Golden Gun '' was to be used by the film 's producers until it was dropped for Lulu 's song instead . Cooper 's song appears on his album Muscle of Love . </P> <P> Barry considered the theme tune -- the only Bond film title track not to chart as a single in either the U.K. or U.S. -- and score to be among the weakest of his contributions to the series : `` It 's the one I hate most ... it just never happened for me . '' Certainly the title song is notable for having suggestive lyrics , and during a TV celebration for the series ' 40th anniversary , Lulu 's performance was introduced with reference to its being the raunchiest of all Bond songs . For the first time , the song 's end theme is not a straight reprise of the opener , as it begins with different lyrics ( subsequent films followed suit with variations in arrangement , ahead of a new practice of using a different song altogether ) . Some Bond music fans consider Lulu 's brassy vocal to be effective in setting the tone for the film 's female characters . </P> <P> The film was also the first to drop the distinctive plucked guitar from the Bond theme heard over the gun barrel sequence - in all subsequent John Barry James Bond scores , this theme would be heard on strings and trumpet . Not present on the album but heard in the film is a brief reprise , for recognition purposes , of the song `` Live and Let Die '' when a character ( Sheriff JW Pepper ) from the previous film reappears . The next three Bond films would wittily feature excerpts from the familiar music of other films , too ( though classics rather than Bond films ) , while On Her Majesty 's Secret Service had included a janitor character whistling the theme from Goldfinger as an in - joke . </P> <P> The popular song `` Mindfields '' by The Prodigy ( released on The Fat of the Land ) features a specific part of `` Hip 's Trip '' . Barry gave the band permission to do so . </P> <H2> Track listing ( edit ) </H2> <P> Composer , except as noted , is John Barry . </P> <Ol> <Li> `` The Man with the Golden Gun ( Main Title ) '' ( J.

Most commonly it is a statement that the phenomenon being studied produces no effect or makes no difference . An example of a null hypothesis is the statement `` This diet has no effect on people 's weight . '' Usually , an experimenter frames a null hypothesis with the intent of rejecting it : that is , intending to run an experiment which produces data that shows that the phenomenon under study does make a difference . In some cases there is a specific alternative hypothesis that is opposed to the null hypothesis , in other cases the alternative hypothesis is not explicitly stated , or is simply `` the null hypothesis is false '' -- in either event , this is a binary judgment , but the interpretation differs and is a matter of significant dispute in statistics . </P> <P> A type I error ( or error of the first kind ) is the incorrect rejection of a true null hypothesis . Usually a type I error leads one to conclude that a supposed effect or relationship exists when in fact it does n't . Examples of type I errors include a test that shows a patient to have a disease when in fact the patient does not have the disease , a fire alarm going on indicating a fire when in fact there is no fire , or an experiment indicating that a medical treatment should cure a disease when in fact it does not . </P> <P> A type II error ( or error of the second kind ) is the failure to reject a false null hypothesis . Examples of type II errors would be a blood test failing to detect the disease it was designed to detect , in a patient who really has the disease ; a fire breaking out and the fire alarm does not ring ; or a clinical trial of a medical treatment failing to show that the treatment works when really it does . </P> <P> In terms of false positives and false negatives , a positive result corresponds to rejecting the null hypothesis , while a negative result corresponds to failing to reject the null hypothesis ; `` false '' means the conclusion drawn is incorrect . Thus a type I error is a false positive , and a type II error is a false negative . </P> <P> When comparing two means , concluding the means were different when in reality they were not different would be a Type I error ; concluding the means were not different when in reality they were different would be a Type II error . Various extensions have been suggested as `` Type III errors '' , though none have wide use . </P> <P> All statistical hypothesis tests have a probability of making type I and type II errors . For example , all blood tests for a disease will falsely detect the disease in some proportion of people who do n't have it , and will fail to detect the disease in some proportion of people who do have it . A test 's probability of making a type I error is denoted by α . A test 's probability of making a type II error is denoted by β . These error rates are traded off against each other : for any given sample set , the effort to reduce one type of error generally results in increasing the other type of error . For a given test , the only way to reduce both error rates is to increase the sample size , and this may not be feasible . </P> <P> These terms are also used in a more general way by social scientists and others to refer to flaws in reasoning . This article is specifically devoted to the statistical meanings of those terms and the technical issues of the statistical errors that those terms describe . </P> <H2> Statistical test theory ( edit ) </H2> <P> In statistical test theory , the notion of statistical error is an integral part of hypothesis testing . The test requires an unambiguous statement of a null hypothesis , which usually corresponds to a default `` state of nature '' , for example `` this person is healthy '' , `` this accused is not guilty '' or `` this product is not broken '' . An alternative hypothesis is the negation of null hypothesis , for example , `` this person is not healthy '' , `` this accused is guilty '' or `` this product is broken '' . The result of the test may be negative , relative to the null hypothesis ( not healthy , guilty , broken ) or positive ( healthy , not guilty , not broken ) . If the result of the test corresponds with reality , then a correct decision has been made . However , if the result of the test does not correspond with reality , then an error has occurred . Due to the statistical nature of a test , the result is never , except in very rare cases , free of error . Two types of error are distinguished : type I error and type II error . </P> <H3> Type I error ( edit ) </H3> <P> A type I error occurs when the null hypothesis ( H ) is true , but is rejected . It is asserting something that is absent , a false hit . A type I error may be likened to a so - called false positive ( a result that indicates that a given condition is present when it actually is not present ) . </P> <P> The type I error rate or significance level is the probability of rejecting the null hypothesis given that it is true . It is denoted by the Greek letter α ( alpha ) and is also called the alpha level . Often , the significance level is set to 0.05 ( 5 % ) , implying that it is acceptable to have a 5 % probability of incorrectly rejecting the null hypothesis . </P> <H3> Type II error ( edit ) </H3> <P> A type II error occurs when the null hypothesis is false , but erroneously fails to be rejected . It is failing to assert what is present , a miss . A type II error may be compared with a so - called false negative ( where an actual ' hit ' was disregarded by the test and seen as a ' miss ' ) in a test checking for a single condition with a definitive result of true or false .

The team is controlled by USA Hockey , the governing body for organized ice hockey in the United States . The US team is ranked 6th in the IIHF World Rankings . The current head coach is Tony Granato . </P> <P> The United States won gold medals at the 1960 and 1980 Winter Olympics and more recently , silver medals at the 2002 and 2010 Winter Olympics . The United States won the 1996 World Cup of Hockey . The team 's most recent medal at the World Championships came with a bronze in 2015 . They won the tournament in 1933 and 1960 . Unlike other nations , the United States does n't typically use its best NHL players in the World Championships even when they 're available . Instead , USA Hockey uses this tournament as a platform for young NHLers and college players . </P> <P> United States is a member of the so - called `` Big Six '' , the unofficial group of the six strongest men 's ice hockey nations , along with Canada , the Czech Republic , Finland , Russia , and Sweden . </P> <P> As of 2014 , the US has a registered ice hockey population of 611,926 with USA Hockey .

Though hockey is not a major sport in most areas of the United States , the `` Miracle '' is often listed as one of the all - time greatest American sporting achievements . The United States also won the gold medal in the 1960 Games at Squaw Valley , California , defeating the Soviet Union , Canada , Czechoslovakia , and Sweden along the way . However , since this victory is not as well known as the 1980 win , it has come to be known as the `` Forgotten Miracle '' . </P> <P> U.S. hockey experienced a spike in talent in the 1980s and 1990s , with future National Hockey League ( NHL ) stars including Tony Amonte , Chris Chelios , Derian Hatcher , Brett Hull , Pat LaFontaine , John LeClair , Brian Leetch , Mike Modano , Mike Richter , Jeremy Roenick , Kevin Stevens , Keith Tkachuk , and Doug Weight . Although the United States finished no higher than fourth in any World or Olympic event from 1981 through 1994 ( the US never used its best in these tournaments ) , the Americans did reach the final of the 1991 Canada Cup and did win the 1996 World Cup with a squad of NHL players . Six years later , after the International Olympic Committee ( IOC ) and NHL arranged to accommodate an Olympic break in the NHL schedule , the United States earned a silver medal at the 2002 Winter Olympics with a roster that included NHL stars Adam Deadmarsh , Chris Drury , Brian Rafalski , and Brian Rolston . But by 2006 , many of these NHL All - Stars had retired or had declined with age . Though the 2006 Olympic team finished a disappointing 8th , it was more of a transitional team , featuring young NHL players like Rick DiPietro , John - Michael Liles , and Jordan Leopold . </P> <P> The 2010 U.S. Olympic team was composed of much younger and faster players than teams of previous years , including David Backes , Dustin Brown , Jack Johnson , Patrick Kane , Phil Kessel , Zach Parise , Joe Pavelski , Bobby Ryan , Paul Stastny , and Ryan Suter . The team also had a solid group of veterans that included top NHL goalie Ryan Miller top defenseman Brian Rafalski and U.S. Olympic Team Captain Jamie Langenbrunner . The U.S. team upset team Canada 5 -- 3 in the round - robin phase of the tournament and went into the single elimination phase of the tournament as the number - one seeded team . After beating Finland 6 -- 1 the United States advanced to the gold medal game , where they lost in overtime 3 -- 2 to Canada to claim the silver medal . The gold medal game between Canada and the United States was watched by an estimated 27.6 million U.S. households . This was the most watched hockey game in America since the 1980 `` Miracle on Ice '' game , including any Stanley Cup Final or NHL Winter Classic broadcast . </P> <P> The NHL pulled out of the Olympics for the 2018 competition in a dispute over insurance and the IOC 's ambush marketing restrictions , prohibiting the national teams from inviting any player it held under contract . On January 1 , 2018 , the US roster was announced . Five players both from the Swiss National League and the KHL , four players from the NCAA , three players from the Swedish League and the AHL and two players from the German League made the team . Brian Gionta , the captain , is the lone unsigned free agent in the 25 - men roster ( he was signed to a practice squad contract with an AHL team at the time ) . The team eventually lost in the quarterfinals ; the Olympic Athletes from Russia ( OAR ) team , consisting primarily of SKA and CSKA players of a Russia - based KHL and featuring ex-NHL all - stars Pavel Datsyuk , Ilya Kovalchuk and Vyacheslav Voynov ( all SKA ) , won the gold medal , defeating the German national team with a score of 4 : 3 OT in the final .

his son Cambyses . On his death , the `` false Smerdis '' , an impostor , occupied the throne for some seven or eight months , and then Darius became king ( 522 BCE ) . In the second year of his rule the work of rebuilding the temple was resumed and carried forward to its completion ( Ezra 5 : 6 -- 6 : 15 ) , under the stimulus of the earnest counsels and admonitions of the prophets Haggai and Zechariah . It was ready for consecration in the spring of 516 BCE , more than twenty years after the return from captivity . The Temple was completed on the third day of the month Adar , in the sixth year of the reign of Darius , amid great rejoicings on the part of all the people ( Ezra 6 : 15 , 16 ) , although it was evident that the Jews were no longer an independent people , but were subject to a foreign power . The Book of Haggai includes a prediction that the glory of the second temple would be greater than that of the first ( Haggai 2 : 9 ) . </P> <P> Some of the original artifacts from the Temple of Solomon are not mentioned in the sources after its destruction in 597 BCE , and are presumed lost . The Second Temple lacked the following holy articles : </P> <Ul> <Li> The Ark of the Covenant containing the Tablets of Stone , before which were placed the pot of manna and Aaron 's rod </Li> <Li> The Urim and Thummim ( divination objects contained in the Hoshen ) </Li> <Li> The holy oil </Li> <Li> The sacred fire . </Li> </Ul> <P> In the Second Temple , the Kodesh Hakodashim ( Holy of Holies ) was separated by curtains rather than a wall as in the First Temple . Still , as in the Tabernacle , the Second Temple included : </P> <Ul> <Li> The Menorah ( golden lamp ) for the Hekhal </Li> <Li> The Table of Showbread </Li> <Li> The golden altar of incense , with golden censers . </Li> </Ul> <P> According to the Mishnah ( Middot iii. 6 ) , the `` Foundation Stone '' stood where the Ark used to be , and the High Priest put his censer on it on Yom Kippur . </P> <P> The Second Temple also included many of the original vessels of gold that had been taken by the Babylonians but restored by Cyrus the Great . According to the Babylonian Talmud ( Yoma 22b ) , however , the Temple lacked the Shekinah , the dwelling or settling divine presence of God , and the Ruach HaKodesh , the Spirit of Holiness , present in the first . </P> <H2> Rabbinical literature ( edit ) </H2> <P> Traditional rabbinic literature state that the Second Temple stood for 420 years and based on the 2nd - century work Seder Olam Rabbah , placed construction in 350 BCE ( 3408 AM ) , 166 years later than secular estimates , and destruction in 70 CE ( 3829 AM ) . </P> <H2> Rededication by the Maccabees ( edit ) </H2> <P> Following the conquest of Judea by Alexander the Great , it became part of the Ptolemaic Kingdom of Egypt until 200 BCE , when King Antiochus III the Great of Syria defeated King Ptolemy V Epiphanes of Egypt at the Battle of Paneion . Judea became at that moment part of the Seleucid empire of Syria . When the Second Temple in Jerusalem was looted and its religious services stopped , Judaism was effectively outlawed . In 167 BCE , Antiochus IV Epiphanes ordered an altar to Zeus erected in the Temple . He also banned circumcision and ordered pigs to be sacrificed at the altar of the Temple . </P> <P> Following the Maccabean Revolt against the Seleucid empire , the Second Temple was rededicated and became the religious pillar of the Jewish Hasmonean kingdom , as well as culturally associated with the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah . </P> <H2> Hasmonean dynasty and Roman conquest ( edit ) </H2> <P> There is some evidence from archaeology that further changes to the structure of the Temple and its surroundings were made during the Hasmonean rule . Salome Alexandra , the queen of Hasmonean Kingdom appointed her elder son Hyrcanus II as the high priest of Judaea . Her younger son Aristobulus II was determined to have the throne , and as soon as she died he seized the throne . Hyrcanus , who was in line to be the king , agreed to be contented with being the high priest . Antipater , the governor of Idumæa , encouraged Hyrcanus not to give up his throne . Eventually Hyrcanus fled to Aretas III , king of the Nabateans , and returned with an army to take back the throne . He defeated Aristobulus and besieged Jerusalem . The Roman general Pompey , who was in Syria fighting against the Armenians in the Third Mithridatic War , sent his lieutenant to investigate the conflict in Judaea . Both Hyrcanus and Aristobulus appealed to him for support . Pompey was not diligent in making a decision about this which caused Aristobulus to march off . He was pursued by Pompey and surrendered but his followers closed Jerusalem to Pompey 's forces . The Romans besieged and took the city in 63 BCE . The priests continued with the religious practices inside the Temple during the siege . The temple was not looted or harmed by the Romans . Pompey himself , perhaps inadvertently , went into the Holy of Holies and the next day ordered the priests to repurify the Temple and resume the religious practices . </P> Solomon 's Temple which was on the site prior to the building of the Second Temple <H2> Herod 's Temple ( edit ) </H2> This picture shows the temple as imagined in 1966 in the Holyland Model of Jerusalem . <P> Reconstruction of the temple under Herod began with a massive expansion of the Temple Mount . Religious worship and temple rituals continued during the construction process . When the Roman emperor Caligula planned to place his own statue inside the temple , Herod 's grandson Agrippa I was able to intervene and convince him against this . </P> <H3> Construction ( edit ) </H3> James Tissot -- Reconstruction of Jerusalem and the Temple of Herod -- Brooklyn Museum A model of the southern wall and Royal Colonnade or Stoa Eastern portion of the southern wall of the Temple Mount Remains of the Hulda Gates Marwan Mosque on the site of Solomon 's Stables <P> Herod 's Temple was one of the larger construction projects of the 1st century BCE . Josephus records that Herod was interested in perpetuating his name through building projects , that his construction programs were extensive and paid for by heavy taxes , but that his masterpiece was the Temple of Jerusalem . </P> <P> The old temple built by Zerubbabel was replaced by a magnificent edifice . An agreement was made between Herod and the Jewish religious authorities : the sacrificial rituals , called offerings , were to be continued unabated for the entire time of construction , and the Temple itself would be constructed by the priests . Later the Exodus 30 : 13 sanctuary shekel was reinstituted to support the temple as the temple tax . </P> <H3> Platform ( edit ) </H3> <P> Mt . Moriah had a plateau at the northern end , and steeply declined on the southern slope . It was Herod 's plan that the entire mountain be turned into a giant square platform . The Temple Mount was originally intended to be 1600 feet wide by 900 feet broad by 9 stories high , with walls up to 16 feet thick , but had never been finished . To complete it , a trench was dug around the mountain , and huge stone `` bricks '' were laid . Some of these weighed well over 100 tons , the largest measuring 44.6 feet by 11 feet by 16.5 feet and weighing approximately 567 to 628 tons , while most were in the range of 2.5 by 3.5 by 15 feet ( approximately 28 tons ) . King Herod had architects from Greece , Rome and Egypt plan the construction . The blocks were presumably quarried by using pickaxes to create channels . Then they hammered in wooden beams and flushed them with water to force them out . Once they were removed , they were carved into precise squares and numbered at the quarry to show where they would be installed . The final carving would have been done by using harder stones to grind or chisel them to create precise joints . They would have been transported using oxen and specialized carts . Since the quarry was uphill from the temple they had gravity on their side but care needed to be taken to control the descent . Final installation would have been done using pulleys or cranes . Roman pulleys and cranes were n't strong enough to lift the blocks alone so they may have used multiple cranes and levers to position them . As the mountainside began to rise , the western side was carved away to a vertical wall and bricks were carved to create a virtual continuation of the brick face , which was continued for a while until the northern slope reached ground level . Part of the Antonian hill to the north of Moriah was annexed to the complex and the area between was filled up with landfill . </P> <P> The project began with the building of giant underground vaults upon which the temple would be built so it could be larger than the small flat area on top of Mount Moriah . Ground level at the time was at least 20 ft. ( 6m ) below the current level , as can be seen by walking the Western Wall tunnels . Legend has it that the construction of the entire complex lasted only three years , but other sources such as Josephus say that it took far longer , although the Temple itself may have taken that long . During a Passover visit by Jesus the Jews replied that it had been under construction for 46 years . It is possible that the complex was only a few years completed when the future Emperor Titus destroyed the Temple in 70 CE . </P> <H3> Court of the Gentiles ( edit ) </H3> <P> This area was primarily a bazaar , with vendors selling souvenirs , sacrificial animals , food , as well as currency changers , exchanging Roman for Tyrian money because the Jews were not allowed to coin their own money and they viewed Roman currency as an abomination to the Lord , as also mentioned in the New Testament account of Jesus and the Money Changers when Jerusalem was packed with Jews who had come for Passover , perhaps numbering 300,000 to 400,000 pilgrims . Guides that provided tours of the premises were also available . Jewish males had the unique opportunity to be shown inside the temple itself . </P> <P> The priests , in their white linen robes and tubular hats , were everywhere , directing pilgrims and advising them on what kinds of sacrifices were to be performed . </P> <P> Behind them , as they entered the Court of the Gentiles from the south through the Huldah Gates , was the Royal Porch , which contained a marketplace , administrative quarters , and a synagogue . On the upper floors , the great Jewish sages held court , priests and Levites performed various chores , and from there , tourists were able to observe the events . The Royal Porch is widely accepted to be part of Herod 's work ; however , recent archaeological finds in the Western Wall tunnels suggest that it was built in the first century during the reign of Agripas , as opposed to the first

The holder of this rank and position is the most senior enlisted member of the Army unless an Army Sergeant Major is serving as the senior enlisted advisor to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff , in which case he would be the most senior enlisted man and the SMA will be the second-most senior enlisted member of the Army . The SMA is appointed to serve as a spokesman to address the issues of enlisted soldiers to all officers , from warrant officers and lieutenants to the Army 's highest positions . As such , he is the senior enlisted advisor to the Chief of Staff of the U.S. Army . The exact duties vary depending on the chief of staff , though much of the SMA 's time is spent traveling throughout the Army , observing training and talking with soldiers and their families . </P> <P> Kenneth O. Preston held the rank from 15 January 2004 through 28 February 2011 , the only incumbent to serve longer than four years . SMA Raymond F.

The Chief of Staff of the Army created the position in 1966 after asking leaders of the major commands for a personal recommendation . He asked that it not be considered a near - retirement type assignment . He listed seven duties and functions he expected the Sergeant Major to perform , including service as a personal adviser and assistant on matters pertaining to enlisted soldiers . From 4,700 proposed candidates , 21 nominees were selected . Finally chosen was the only one then serving in Vietnam , Sergeant Major William O. Wooldridge of the 1st Infantry Division . </P> <P> The other services later followed , creating the positions of Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy and Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force in 1967 , Master Chief Petty Officer of the Coast Guard in 1969 , and Senior Enlisted Advisor to the Chairman in 2005 . These six positions are collectively referred to as `` senior enlisted advisors '' ( `` SEAs '' ) . </P> <H2> Pay grade ( edit ) </H2> <P> The Sergeant Major of the Army base pay is $7844.70 a month ( $94,136.40 per year ) </P> <H2> Insignia ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> SMA insignia timeline </Li> <Li> <P> 1966 -- 1968 , the only authorized insignia for all sergeants major </P> </Li> <Li> <P> 1968 -- 1979 , became Command Sergeant Major </P> </Li> <Li> <P> 1979 -- 1994 </P> </Li> <Li> <P> 1994 -- 2015 </P> </Li> <Li> <P> 2015 -- present </P> </Li> </Ul> Sergeant Major of the Army branch of service collar insignia Sergeant Major of the Army cap device <P> The sergeant major of the army , like counterparts in the other branches , wears a unique rank insignia , including a unique collar insignia ( `` brass '' ) . </P> <P> The collar insignia of the SMA is the shield portion of the collar insignia of an aide - de-camp to the Army Chief of Staff ( less the surmounting eagle ) , placed upon an enlisted collar disk of gold color , one inch in diameter . The insignia worn by SMA Wooldridge was hand - soldered by Colonel Jasper J. Wilson from the cannibalized insignia and enlisted collar brass of an aide . The insignia was approved on 4 July 1966 . Originally , the SMA would wear the device on each collar , but he now wears the standard `` U.S. '' disk on his right collar as do all enlisted soldiers . This insignia is also worn in place of a unit insignia on the SMA 's beret , garrison cap , and pull - over sweater . The collar insignia of the senior enlisted advisor to the chairman ( `` SEAC '' ) of the JCS , approved 2 February 2006 , is based directly upon that of the SMA , and features the shield of an aide de camp to the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff ( without the surmounting eagle ) , on a gold - colored disk . </P> <P> The SMA 's cap device , worn on the front of the blue service cap ( and , formerly , the white service cap ; and , until 2011 the green service cap ) is a gold - colored rendering of the United States ' coat of arms , surrounded by a wreath . The cap device for all other U.S. Army enlisted soldiers is a gold - colored rendering of the United States ' coat of arms on a gold - colored disk ( males ) or surrounded by a gold colored ring ( females ) . The chief master sergeant of the Air Force has the same cap device as the SMA , but in silver - colored metal . </P> <H2> Positional color ( edit ) </H2> <P> The Sergeant Major of the Army , Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force and the Senior Enlisted Advisor to the Chairman are the only members of the United States armed forces below the rank of brigadier general / rear admiral , lower half to be authorized a positional color ( flag ) . First considered in 1992 , the SMA 's color has been authorized since 22 March 1999 . It is based on the design of his collar insignia and the positional flag of the Chief of Staff , Army . Like the SEAC 's collar brass , the SEAC 's positional color was patterned after the SMA 's color . </P> <H2> List of Sergeants Major of the Army ( edit ) </H2> <Table> <Tr> <Th> # </Th> <Th> Photo </Th> <Th> SMA </Th> <Th> Tenure </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 1 . </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> William O.

The Windmills of Your Mind - wikipedia <H1> The Windmills of Your Mind </H1> Jump to : navigation , search This article is about the song . For the album by Paul Motian , see The Windmills of Your Mind ( album ) . For the album by Bud Shank , see Windmills of Your Mind ( album ) . <P> `` The Windmills of Your Mind '' is a song with music by French composer Michel Legrand and English lyrics written by Americans Alan and Marilyn Bergman . The French lyrics , under the title `` Les Moulins de mon cœur '' , were written by Eddy Marnay . The song ( with the English lyrics ) was introduced in the film The Thomas Crown Affair ( 1968 ) , and won the Academy Award for Best Original Song in the same year . In 2004 , `` Windmills of Your Mind '' was ranked 57 in AFI 's 100 Years ... 100 Songs survey of top songs in American cinema . A remake by Sting was utilized in the 1999 remake of The Thomas Crown Affair . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Composition / original recording </Li> <Li> 2 Dusty Springfield version </Li> <Li> 3 José Feliciano version </Li> <Li> 4 Other versions <Ul> <Li> 4.1 In English </Li> <Li> 4.2 In French : `` Les Moulins de mon cœur '' </Li> <Li> 4.3 In other languages </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Composition / original recording ( edit ) </H2> <P> In the original 1968 film The Thomas Crown Affair , the song is heard -- sung by Noel Harrison -- during opening credits ; and , during the film , in a scene in which the character Thomas Crown flies a glider at the glider airport in Salem , New Hampshire : having edited the rough cut for this scene utilizing the Beatles track `` Strawberry Fields Forever '' producer / director Norman Jewison commissioned an original song be written for the glider scene which would reference the ambivalent feelings of Thomas Crown as he engages in a favorite pastime while experiencing the tension of preparing to commit a major robbery . Alan Bergman : `` Michel ( Legrand ) played us ( ie . Alan and Marilyn Bergman ) seven or eight melodies . We listened to all of them and decided to wait until the next day to choose one . We three decided on the same one , a long baroque melody ... The lyric we wrote was stream - of - consciousness . We felt that the song had to be a mind trip of some kind '' -- `` The ( eventual ) title was ( originally ) a line at the end of a section ... When we finished we said : `` What do we call this ? It 's got to have a title . That line is kind of interesting . ' So we restructured the song so that the line appeared again at the end . It came out of the body of the song . I think we were thinking , you know when you try to fall asleep at night and you ca n't turn your brain off and thoughts and memories tumble . '' </P> <P> Noel Harrison recorded the song after Andy Williams passed on it : according to Harrison : `` It was recorded live on a huge sound stage at Paramount , with the accompanying film clips running on a giant screen and Michel blowing kisses to the orchestra . '' Harrison took issue with the couplet `` Like a tunnel that you follow to a tunnel of its own / Down a hollow to a cavern where the sun has never shone '' , singing the word `` shone '' British - style with a short vowel sound making the rhyme with `` own '' imperfect . Marilyn Bergman : `` We said ' No , it 's shone ( long vowel sound ) . ' And he said ' No , it 's our language ! ' And we said : ' Yes , but it 's our song . ' So reluctantly , he sang shone ( long vowel sound ) and our rhyme was intact . '' However , Harrison evidently had the last laugh ; in the finally released version he sings `` shone '' with a short vowel . Harrison 's version had a US single in the US in July 1968 soon after the premiere of the film and similarly was released in the British Isles at the time of the film 's 7 February 1969 premiere in the UK and Ireland . As a result , it was a current UK release when `` The Windmills of Your Mind '' received an Academy Award nomination on 24 February 1969 : Harrison 's single debuted at # 36 in the UK Top 50 dated 4 March 1969 and had risen to # 15 -- abetted by performances by Harrison on the 27 March 1969 broadcast of TOTP and also on variety shows hosted by Rolf Harris and Scott Walker -- when the song won the Academy Award on 14 April 1969 , an endorsement which facilitated the Top Ten entry of Harrison 's single on the UK chart dated 22 April 1969 with its chart peak of # 8 effected two weeks later . </P> <P> `` The Windmills of Your Mind '' was performed on the Academy Awards ceremony broadcast of 14 April 1969 by José Feliciano ; Noel Harrison would recall : `` I was invited to sing it at the Academy Awards ... but I was making a movie in England at the time , and the producer ( who did n't like me ) refused to let me go . '' The film which caused the scheduling conflict has been identified as Take a Girl Like You directed by Jonathan Miller . </P> <H2> Dusty Springfield version ( edit ) </H2> <P> Jerry Wexler , president of Atlantic Records , heard `` The Windmills of Your Mind '' on the soundtrack of The Thomas Crown Affair and championed having Dusty Springfield record the song for her debut Atlantic album Dusty in Memphis , overcoming the singer 's strong resistance ; Springfield 's friend and subsequent manager Vicki Wickham would allege : `` Dusty always said she hated it because she could n't identify with the words . '' During the first sessions for the track at American Sound Studio in Memphis , problems with getting the proper chords down arose , and at Springfield 's suggestion the song was arranged so the first three verses were sung in a slower tempo than the original film version . </P> <P> In April 1969 the third A-side release from Dusty in Memphis was announced as `` I Do n't Want to Hear It Anymore '' with `` The Windmills of Your Mind '' as B - side : however Wexler was prepared to promote `` Windmills '' as the A-side if it won the Oscar for Best Song , reportedly instructing mail - room clerks at Atlantic Records ' New York City headquarters to listen to the Academy Awards broadcast the night of 14 April 1969 ; hearing `` The Windmills '' announced as the Best Song winner was these clerks ' cue to drive a station wagon loaded with 2500 copies of a double - sided promo single of Springfield 's version -- identified on the label as `` Academy Award Winner '' -- to the New York City general post office , where the copies of the single were mailed out to key radio stations across the US . Although its Hot 100 debut was not effected until the 5 May 1969 issue of Billboard and then with a # 99 ranking , Springfield 's `` The Windmills '' made a rapid ascent to the Top 40 being ranked at # 40 on the Hot 100 dated 24 May 1969 only to stall over the subsequent three weeks peaking at # 31 on the Hot 100 dated 14 June 1969 with only one additional week of Hot 100 tenure , being ranked at # 45 on the 21 June 1969 chart . On the Cash Box chart , the song rose as high as # 22 . Local hit parades indicate that Springfield 's `` Windmills '' had Top Ten impact in only select larger markets : Boston , Southern California , and Miami . The track did reach # 3 on the Easy Listening chart in Billboard a feat matched by Springfield 's third subsequent single `` Brand New Me '' which therefore ties with `` The Windmills '' as having afforded Springfield her best - ever solo showing on a Billboard chart . </P> <H2> José Feliciano version ( edit ) </H2> <P> `` The Windmills of Your Mind '' was recorded by José Feliciano for his 1969 album 10 to 23 , and Feliciano performed the song on the Academy Awards ceremony broadcast of 14 April 1969 ; the song 's original singer Noel Harrison would later opine of Feliciano 's performance : `` A wonderful musician and compelling singer , he made much too free with the beautiful melody in my humble opinion . But that 's jazz .

<Td> Alabama , 2 ( 2016 -- present ) </Td> </Tr> </Table> <P> The Alabama -- Ole Miss football rivalry is an American college football rivalry between the Alabama Crimson Tide and Ole Miss Rebels . They are charter members of the Southeastern Conference ( SEC ) , and both have competed in the SEC West since 1992 . Alabama has dominated the series and leads 50 -- 11 -- 2 ( 53 -- 10 -- 2 on the field ) . </P> <H2> Notable games ( edit ) </H2> <P> 1964 Sugar Bowl : In the only meeting in series history played outside of Alabama or Mississippi , # 8 Alabama upset # 7 Ole Miss 12 -- 7 behind four field goals by kicker Tim Davis . This Sugar Bowl , played at the end of the 1963 season , is notable for being the coldest Sugar Bowl in history , as snow plows were used to clear the Tulane Stadium field prior to the game . </P> <P> 1969 : In what is often erroneously referred to as the first prime time regular season football game in history , # 20 Ole Miss traveled to Legion Field in Birmingham to face # 15 Alabama . A dazzling offensive shootout ensues , highlighted by the play of Ole Miss quarterback Archie Manning . Despite a 540 - yard , 5 touchdown effort from Manning , Alabama emerged victorious 33 -- 32 after a last minute touchdown pass by quarterback Scott Hunter . The game has been referred to as among the greatest in college football history . </P> <P> 1988 : Ole Miss stunned # 12 Alabama 22 -- 12 in Tuscaloosa , the Rebels ' first - ever road victory in the series . This game is known as `` The Brick Bowl '' , due to a claim made by then - Alabama head coach Bill Curry that a brick was thrown through his office 's window following the loss . </P> <P> 1989 : Following Ole Miss ' upset victory the year before , the Rebels hopped out to a 21 -- 0 lead over # 13 Alabama in Jackson , MS . The Crimson Tide then scored 62 unanswered points en route to a 62 -- 27 victory . The 21 - point comeback still stands as the largest in Alabama football history . </P> <P> 1998 : This was the first overtime game in series history , with Alabama emerging victorious 20 -- 17 . It was the first overtime win in Alabama football history , as well as the first overtime loss in Ole Miss football history . </P> <P> 2006 : In 2006 , Alabama beat the Rebels in an overtime thriller . In overtime , Ole Miss made a 37 - yard field goal , but Alabama scored a touchdown on a pass to Le'Ron McClain to win the game 26 -- 23 . </P> <P> 2007 : Alabama beat Ole Miss in Oxford by scoring 10 unanswered points to win the game 27 -- 24 , amidst controversial rulings from the officials . It was Alabama 's fifth consecutive victory over the Rebels . </P> <P> 2014 : In 2014 , # 3 Alabama came into Oxford as a 6 - point favorite taking on # 11 Ole Miss . Alabama led 14 -- 3 at the half , but were held to only 3 points in the second half . Late in the fourth quarter , Ole Miss scored a go - ahead touchdown , but missed the PAT , leaving the score at 23 -- 17 . Alabama drove to Ole Miss 32 yard line , before Blake Sims threw an interception to Senquez Golson with 37 seconds left . This was Ole Miss ' first victory over Alabama since 2003 , snapping a 10 - game losing streak in the series . </P> <P> 2015 : # 2 Alabama sought revenge for the previous season 's defeat , but # 15 Ole Miss shot out to a 30 -- 10 lead late in the third quarter . Alabama quickly closed the gap to 30 -- 24 less than three minutes into the fourth . Ole Miss then scored 13 unanswered to extend their lead to 43 -- 24 , but had to fight off another Crimson Tide rally to secure a 43 -- 37 upset victory . Alabama committed 5 turnovers in this game , the most ever under head coach Nick Saban . It was the first time in school history that Ole Miss had beaten Alabama in consecutive seasons and just the second time that the Rebels had won in Tuscaloosa . This would be the Crimson Tide 's only loss that season as they went on to win the College Football Playoff national championship . </P> <P> 2016 : # 19 Ole Miss seemed to be on track for an unprecedented third - straight win over the top - ranked Crimson Tide , leading 24 -- 3 with less than 2 : 47 left to play in the first half . Alabama then scored 24 unanswered points to take a 27 -- 24 lead midway through the third quarter . Late in the fourth quarter , the Tide had extended its lead to 48 -- 30 before Ole Miss scored twice in rapid succession to cut the deficit to five points with just under three minutes left . Alabama was able to run out the clock , preserving a wild 48 -- 43 victory and ending the Rebels ' school record two game winning streak in the series . The 21 - point comeback tied the 1989 Alabama - Ole Miss game for the largest comeback in Alabama football history . </P> <H2> Game results ( edit ) </H2> <Table> <Tr> <Td> Alabama victories </Td> <Td> Ole Miss victories </Td> <Td> Ties </Td> <Td> Forfeits / Vacated wins </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Table> <Tr> <Td> <Table> <Tr> <Th> No . </Th> <Th> Date </Th> <Th> Location </Th> <Th> Winner </Th> <Th> Score </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> October 27 , 1894 </Td> <Td> Jackson , MS </Td> <Td> Ole Miss </Td> <Td> 6 -- 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> November 24 , 1899 </Td> <Td> Jackson , MS </Td> <Td> Alabama </Td> <Td> 7 -- 5 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> October 26 , 1900 </Td> <Td> Tuscaloosa , AL </Td> <Td> Alabama </Td> <Td> 12 -- 5 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> October 19 , 1901 </Td> <Td> Tuscaloosa , AL </Td> <Td> Alabama </Td> <Td> 41 -- 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> October 12 , 1907 </Td> <Td> Columbus , MS </Td> <Td> Alabama </Td> <Td> 20 -- 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 6 </Td> <Td> October 23 , 1909 </Td> <Td> Jackson , MS </Td> <Td> Tie </Td> <Td> 0 -- 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 7 </Td> <Td> November 5 , 1910 </Td> <Td> Greenville , MS </Td> <Td> Ole Miss </Td> <Td> 16 -- 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 8 </Td> <Td> November 9 , 1912 </Td> <Td> Tuscaloosa , AL </Td> <Td> Alabama </Td> <Td> 10 -- 9 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 9 </Td> <Td> November 25 , 1915 </Td> <Td> Birmingham , AL </Td> <Td> Alabama </Td> <Td> 53 -- 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 10 </Td> <Td> October 28 , 1916 </Td> <Td> Tuscaloosa , AL </Td> <Td> Alabama </Td> <Td> 27 -- 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 11 </Td> <Td> October 27 , 1917 </Td> <Td> Tuscaloosa , AL </Td> <Td> Alabama </Td> <Td> 64 -- 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 12 </Td> <Td> October 11 , 1919 </Td> <Td> Tuscaloosa , AL </Td> <Td> Alabama </Td> <Td> 49 -- 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 13 </Td> <Td> October 6 , 1923 </Td> <Td> Tuscaloosa , AL </Td> <Td> Alabama </Td> <Td> 56 -- 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 14 </Td> <Td> November 1 , 1924 </Td> <Td> Montgomery , AL </Td> <Td> Alabama </Td> <Td> 61 -- 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 15 </Td> <Td> October 6 , 1928 </Td> <Td> Tuscaloosa , AL </Td> <Td> Alabama </Td> <Td> 27 -- 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 16 </Td> <Td> October 5 , 1929 </Td> <Td> Tuscaloosa , AL </Td> <Td> Alabama </Td> <Td> 22 -- 7 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 17 </Td> <Td> October 4 , 1930 </Td> <Td> Tuscaloosa , AL </Td> <Td> Alabama </Td> <Td> 64 -- 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 18 </Td> <Td> October 3 , 1931 </Td> <Td> Tuscaloosa , AL </Td> <Td> Alabama </Td> <Td> 55 -- 6 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 19 </Td> <Td> October 22 , 1932 </Td> <Td> Tuscaloosa , AL </Td> <Td> Alabama </Td> <Td> 24 -- 13 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 20 </Td> <Td> October 7 , 1933 </Td> <Td> Birmingham , AL </Td> <Td> Tie </Td> <Td> 0 -- 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 21 </Td> <Td> November 11 , 1944 </Td> <Td> Mobile , AL </Td> <Td> Alabama </Td> <Td> 34 -- 6 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 22 </Td> <Td> January 1 , 1964 </Td> <Td> New Orleans , LA </Td> <Td> #

Plagues of Egypt - wikipedia <H1> Plagues of Egypt </H1> Jump to : navigation , search Sarajevo Haggadah , from Barcelona , c. 1350 <P> The Plagues of Egypt ( Hebrew : מכות מצרים , Makot Mitzrayim ) , also called the ten biblical plagues , were ten calamities that , according to the biblical Book of Exodus , God inflicted upon Egypt to persuade the Pharaoh to release the ill - treated Israelites from slavery . The Pharaoh capitulated after the tenth plague , until which God had prevented him from being swayed , triggering the Exodus of the Hebrew people . </P> <P> The plagues served to contrast the power of the God of Israel with the Egyptian gods , invalidating them . Some commentators have associated several of the plagues with judgment on specific gods associated with the Nile , fertility and natural phenomena . According to Exodus 12 : 12 , all the gods of Egypt would be judged through the tenth and final plague : `` On that same night I will pass through Egypt and strike down every firstborn of both people and animals , and I will bring judgment on all the gods of Egypt .

'' , and to indelibly impress the Israelites with God 's power as an object lesson for all time , which was also meant to become known `` throughout the world '' . </P> <P> According to the Book of Exodus , God hardened Pharaoh 's heart so he would be strong enough to persist in his unwillingness to release the people , so that God could manifest his great power and cause his power to be declared among the nations , so that other people would discuss it for generations afterward . In this view , the plagues were punishment for the Egyptians ' long abuse of the Israelites , as well as proof that the gods of Egypt were false and powerless . If God triumphed over the gods of Egypt , a world power at that time , then the people of God would be strengthened in their faith , although they were a small people , and would not be tempted to follow the deities that God proved false . Exodus 9 : 15 -- 16 ( JPS Tanakh ) portrays Yahweh explaining why he did not accomplish the freedom of the Israelites immediately : `` I could have stretched forth My hand and stricken you ( Pharaoh ) and your people with pestilence , and you would have been effaced from the earth . Nevertheless I have spared you for this purpose : in order to show you My power and in order that My fame may resound throughout the world . '' </P> <H2> Biblical narrative ( edit ) </H2> <P> The plagues seemed to affect `` all the land of Egypt '' , but the children of Israel were unaffected . For the last plague , the Torah indicates that they were only spared from the final plague by sacrificing the Paschal lamb , marking their place directly above their doors with the lamb 's blood , and hastily eating the roasted sacrifice together with unleavened bread ( now known as Matzoh ) which they took from their ovens in haste , as they made ready for the Exodus . The Torah describes God as actually passing through Egypt to kill all firstborn children and cattle , but passing over ( hence `` Passover '' ) houses which have the sign of lambs ' blood on the doorpost . It is debated whether it was actually God who came through the streets or one of his angels . Some also think it may be the Holy Spirit . It is most commonly known as the `` Angel of Death '' . The night of this plague , Pharaoh finally relents and sends the Israelites away under their terms . </P> <P> After the Israelites leave en masse , a departure known as The Exodus , God introduces himself by name and makes an exclusive covenant with the Israelites on the basis of this miraculous deliverance . The Ten Commandments encapsulate the terms of this covenant . Joshua , the successor to Moses , reminds the people of their deliverance through the plagues . According to 1 Samuel , the Philistines also knew of the plagues and feared their author . Later , the psalmist sang of these events . </P> <P> The Torah also relates God 's instructions to Moses that the exodus of the Israelites from Egypt must be celebrated yearly on the holiday of Passover ( Pesaḥ פסח ) ; the rituals observed on Passover recall the events surrounding the exodus from Egypt . The Torah additionally cites God 's sparing of the Israelite firstborn as a rationale for the commandment of the redemption of the firstborn . This event is also commemorated by the Fast of the Firstborn on the day preceding Passover but which is traditionally not observed because a siyum celebration is held which obviates the need for a fast . </P> <P> It seems that the celebration of Passover waned from time to time , since other biblical books provide references to revival of the holiday . For example , it was reinstated by Joshua at Gilgal , by Josiah , by Hezekiah and , after the return from the captivity , by Ezra . By the time of the Second Temple it was firmly established in Israel . </P> <H2> Plagues ( edit ) </H2> The First Plague : Water Is Changed into Blood , James Tissot <P> The plagues as they appear in the 1984 New International Version of the Book of Exodus are : </P> <H3> 1 . Water into blood ( דָם ) : Ex. 7 : 14 -- 24 ( edit ) </H3> <P> This is what the LORD says : By this you will know that I am the LORD : With the staff that is in my hands I will strike the water of the Nile , and it will be changed into blood . The fish in the Nile will die , and the river will stink and the Egyptians will not be able to drink its water . </P> -- Exodus 7 : 17 -- 18 <H3> 2 . Frogs ( צְּפַרְדֵּעַ ) : Ex. 7 : 25 -- 8 : 15 ( edit ) </H3> <P> </P> The Second Plague : And Aaron stretched out his hand over the Waters of Egypt and the Frogs came up and covered the Sand of Egypt etching See also : Va'eira <P> This is what the great LORD says : Let my people go , so that they may worship me . If you refuse to let them go , I will plague your whole country with frogs . The Nile will teem with frogs . They will come up into your palace and your bedroom and onto your bed , into the houses of your officials and on your people , and into your ovens and kneading troughs . The frogs will go up on you and your people and all your officials . </P> -- Exodus 8 : 1 -- 4 <H3> 3 . Lice ( כִּנִּים ) : Ex. 8 : 16 -- 19 ( edit ) </H3> The Third Plague : Moses , horned ( a sign of his encounter with divinity ) , carries the rod , while Aaron , wearing the miter of a priest , stands behind him . The gnats arise en masse out of the dust from which they were made and attack Pharaoh , seated and crowned , and his retinue ( by William de Brailes , collection Walters Art Museum ) <P> `` And the LORD said ( ... ) Stretch out thy rod , and smite the dust of the land , that it may become lice throughout all the land of Egypt . '' ( ... ) When Aaron stretched out his hand with the rod and struck the dust of the ground , lice came upon men and animals . All the dust throughout the land of Egypt became lice . </P> -- Exodus 8 : 16 -- 17 <P> The Hebrew noun כִּנִּים ( kinim ) could be translated as lice , gnats , or fleas . </P> <H3> 4 . Mixture of wild animals or flies ( עָרוֹב ) : Ex. 8 : 20 -- 32 ( edit ) </H3> The Fourth Plague : The Plague of Flies by James Jacques Joseph Tissot at the Jewish Museum , New York <P> The fourth plague of Egypt was of creatures capable of harming people and livestock . The Torah emphasizes that the ' arob ( עָרוֹב , meaning `` mixture '' or `` swarm '' ) only came against the Egyptians , and that it did not affect the Land of Goshen ( where the Israelites lived ) . Pharaoh asked Moses to remove this plague and promised to allow the Israelites ' freedom . However , after the plague was gone , the LORD `` hardened Pharaoh 's heart '' , and he refused to keep his promise . </P> <P> The word ' arob has caused a difference of opinion among traditional interpreters . The root meaning is ( ע. ר. ב ) , meaning a mixture - implying a diversity , array , or assortment of harmful animals . While Jewish interpreters understand the plague as `` wild animals '' ( most likely scorpions , venomous snakes , and other venomous arthropods and reptiles ) , Gesenius along with many Christian interpreters understand the plague as a swarm of flies . </P> <H3> 5 . Diseased livestock ( דֶּבֶר ) : Ex. 9 : 1 -- 7 ( edit ) </H3> The Fifth Plague : Livestock Disease ( Ex. 9 : 2 - 3 ) , by Gustave Doré <P> This is what the LORD , the God of the Hebrews , says : Let my people go , so that they may worship me . If you refuse to let them go and continue to hold them back , the hand of the LORD will bring a terrible

They recorded their version of the song , with Rogers singing the lead , in a single take . The record was a major hit for them . It made number 1 in the UK on the New Musical Express ( number 2 on the BBC chart ) staying in the top 20 for 15 weeks and selling over a million copies by the end of 1970 .

The Statler Brothers covered it on their 1967 album , Big Country Hits . Other artists who have recorded versions include Bobby Bare , Dale Hawkins , Waylon Jennings , George Jones , Jerry Reed , Roger Miller , Cake , The Killers and Leonard Nimoy . </P> <P> Several foreign - language versions have been recorded : Greek singer Nana Mouskouri recorded a French version entitled `` Ruby , garde ton cœur ici '' for her 1970 album Dans le soleil et dans le vent ; Gerhard Wendland recorded a German version `` Ruby , schau einmal über'n Zaun '' in 1970 ; Pavel Bobek , Czech country singer , recorded `` Oh Ruby , nechtěj mi lásku brát '' in 1981 ; Gary Holton and Casino Steel 's English - language version was a number one hit in Norway at the beginning of 1982 . French singer Eddy Mitchell recorded a French version entitled `` Ruby tu reviens au pays '' for his 1974 album Rocking in Nashville . The Dutch singer / showmaster Ron Brandsteder recorded a Dutch version called `` Oh Nederland ik ben verliefd op jou '' ( O Netherlands , I have fallen in love with you ) . </P> <H2> Answer songs ( edit ) </H2> <P> An answer song to `` Ruby , '' entitled `` Billy , I 've Got to Go to Town , '' was released in 1969 by Geraldine Stevens , who had previously recorded successfully under the name Dodie Stevens . Sung to the same melody with an arrangement quite similar to the First Edition version , `` Billy '' peaked at number 117 pop , number 57 country . In Stevens 's song , Ruby affirms her love for her disabled husband , who is named `` Billy '' in her song whereas in `` Ruby , '' he is not named , and she pleads in turn for her man to have faith in her fidelity and her commitment to him , even in his paralyzed condition . </P> <P> In 1972 , Bobby Womack released the album Understanding , which included the song `` Ruby Dean . '' The lyrics and melody are similar to `` Ruby , Do n't Take Your Love to Town '' but the story is told from the perspective of Ruby 's son . The son urges his mother to respect his father and to stop seeing other men . In the original song , no children between the couple are ever mentioned . </P> <H2> Music video ( edit ) </H2> <P> A music video consisting solely of a camera panning back and forth in a bedroom was shown at the end of a Huntley - Brinkley Report during 1969 . Chet Huntley set up the video by linking it to the controversial Vietnam War and the sacrifices by U.S. servicemen and their families . Chet Huntley and David Brinkley paused after the video and then signed off in their usual fashion . </P> <H2> Further reading ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> Rule , Ann ( 1999 ) , `` Ruby , Do n't Take Your Love to Town '' .

The normal zeta potential of the red blood cell is − 15.7 milli volts ( mV ) . Much of this potential appears to be contributed by the exposed sialic acid residues in the membrane : their removal results in zeta potential of − 6.06 mV . </P> <H2> Function </H2> <H3> Secondary functions </H3> <P> When red blood cells undergo shear stress in constricted vessels , they release ATP , which causes the vessel walls to relax and dilate so as to promote normal blood flow . </P> <P> When their hemoglobin molecules are deoxygenated , red blood cells release S - nitrosothiols , which also act to dilate blood vessels , thus directing more blood to areas of the body depleted of oxygen . </P> <P> Red blood cells can also synthesize nitric oxide enzymatically , using L - arginine as substrate , as do endothelial cells . Exposure of red blood cells to physiological levels of shear stress activates nitric oxide synthase and export of nitric oxide , which may contribute to the regulation of vascular tonus . </P> <P> Red blood cells can also produce hydrogen sulfide , a signalling gas that acts to relax vessel walls . It is believed that the cardioprotective effects of garlic are due to red blood cells converting its sulfur compounds into hydrogen sulfide . </P> <P> Red blood cells also play a part in the body 's immune response : when lysed by pathogens such as bacteria , their hemoglobin releases free radicals , which break down the pathogen 's cell wall and membrane , killing it . </P> <H3> Cellular processes </H3> <P> As a result of not containing mitochondria , red blood cells use none of the oxygen they transport ; instead they produce the energy carrier ATP by the glycolysis of glucose and lactic acid fermentation on the resulting pyruvate . Furthermore , the pentose phosphate pathway plays an important role in red blood cells ; see glucose - 6 - phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency for more . </P> <P> As red blood cells contain no nucleus , protein biosynthesis is currently assumed to be absent in these cells . </P> <P> Because of the lack of nuclei and organelles , mature red blood cells do not contain DNA and can not synthesize any RNA , and consequently can not divide and have limited repair capabilities . The inability to carry out protein synthesis means that no virus can evolve to target mammalian red blood cells . However , infection with parvoviruses ( such as human parvovirus B19 ) can affect erythroid precursors , as recognized by the presence of giant pronormoblasts with viral particles and inclusion bodies , thus temporarily depleting the blood of reticulocytes and causing anemia . </P> <H2> Life cycle </H2> <P> Human red blood cells are produced through a process named erythropoiesis , developing from committed stem cells to mature red blood cells in about 7 days . When matured , in a healthy individual these cells live in blood circulation for about 100 to 120 days ( and 80 to 90 days in a full term infant ) . At the end of their lifespan , they are removed from circulation . In many chronic diseases , the lifespan of the red blood cells is reduced . </P> <H3> Creation </H3> <P> Erythropoiesis is the process by which new red blood cells are produced ; it lasts about 7 days . Through this process red blood cells are continuously produced in the red bone marrow of large bones . ( In the embryo , the liver is the main site of red blood cell production . ) The production can be stimulated by the hormone erythropoietin ( EPO ) , synthesised by the kidney . Just before and after leaving the bone marrow , the developing cells are known as reticulocytes ; these constitute about 1 % of circulating red blood cells . </P> <H3> Functional lifetime </H3> <P> The functional lifetime of an red blood cell is about 100 -- 120 days , during which time the red blood cells are continually moved by the blood flow push ( in arteries ) , pull ( in veins ) and a combination of the two as they squeeze through microvessels such as capillaries . They are also recycled in the bone marrow . </P> <H3> Senescence </H3> <P> The aging red blood cell undergoes changes in its plasma membrane , making it susceptible to selective recognition by macrophages and subsequent phagocytosis in the mononuclear phagocyte system ( spleen , liver and lymph nodes ) , thus removing old and defective cells and continually purging the blood . This process is termed eryptosis , red blood cell programmed cell death . This process normally occurs at the same rate of production by erythropoiesis , balancing the total circulating red blood cell count . Eryptosis is increased in a wide variety of diseases including sepsis , haemolytic uremic syndrome , malaria , sickle cell anemia , beta - thalassemia , glucose - 6 - phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency , phosphate depletion , iron deficiency and Wilson 's disease . Eryptosis can be elicited by osmotic shock , oxidative stress , energy depletion as well as a wide variety of endogenous mediators and xenobiotics . Excessive eryptosis is observed in red blood cells lacking the cGMP - dependent protein kinase type I or the AMP - activated protein kinase AMPK . Inhibitors of eryptosis include erythropoietin , nitric oxide , catecholamines and high concentrations of urea . </P> <P> Much of the resulting breakdown products are recirculated in the body . The heme constituent of hemoglobin are broken down into iron ( Fe ) and biliverdin . The biliverdin is reduced to bilirubin , which is released into the plasma and recirculated to the liver bound to albumin . The iron is released into the plasma to be recirculated by a carrier protein called transferrin . Almost all red blood cells are removed in this manner from the circulation before they are old enough to hemolyze .

Pinkerton , in his book The Spy of the Rebellion ( 1883 ) , described her as : </P> <P> ( a ) commanding person , with clear cut , expressive features ... a slender , brown - haired woman , graceful in her movements and self - possessed . Her features , although not what could be called handsome ( beautiful ) , were decidedly of an intellectual cast ... her face was honest , which would cause one in distress instinctly ( sic ) to select her as a confidante . </P> <P> Warne walked into the Pinkerton Detective Agency in response to an advertisement in a local newspaper . When she walked into Pinkerton 's Chicago office , according to Pinkerton company records , he further described her acquaintance : </P> <P> `` ( he ) was surprised to learn Kate was not looking for clerical work , but was actually answering an advertisement for detectives he had placed in a Chicago newspaper . At the time , such a concept was almost unheard of . Pinkerton said '' It is not the custom to employ women detectives ! '' Kate argued her point of view eloquently - pointing out that women could be `` most useful in worming out secrets in many places which would be impossible for a male detective . '' A Woman would be able to befriend the wives and girlfriends of suspected criminals and gain their confidence . Men become braggarts when they are around women who encourage them to boast . Kate also noted , Women have an eye for detail and are excellent observers . '' </P> <P> Warne 's arguments swayed Pinkerton , who employed Warne as the first female detective . Pinkerton soon had a chance to put Warne to the test . In 1858 , Warne was involved in the case of Adams Express Company embezzlements , where she was successfully able to bring herself into the confidence of the wife of the prime suspect , Mr. Maroney . She thereby acquired valuable evidence leading to the husband 's conviction . Mr. Maroney was an expressman living in Montgomery , Alabama . The Maroneys stole $50,000 from the Adams Express Company . With Warne 's help , $39,515 was returned . Mr. Maroney was convicted and sentenced to ten years in Montgomery , Alabama . In 1860 , Allan Pinkerton put Warne in charge of his new Female Detective Bureau . </P> <H2> The Baltimore plot ( edit ) </H2> <P> In 1861 , Allan Pinkerton was hired by Samuel H. Felton , president of the Philadelphia , Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad , to investigate secessionist activity and threats of damage to the railroad in Maryland . Pinkerton soon was at work , placing agents at various points in Maryland to investigate the possibility . As the investigation proceeded , Pinkerton became aware that the activity in Maryland did not just end with the railroad , but included the president - elect , Abraham Lincoln . Pinkerton received permission to continue his investigation and focus on the possible assassination plot . Warne was one of five agents sent to Baltimore , Maryland , on February 3 , 1861 , to investigate the hotbed of secessionist activity . </P> <P> During the investigation , evidence unveiled a plot to assassinate Lincoln on his way to take office . Under the aliases Mrs. Cherry and Mrs. M. Barley ( M.B. ) , Warne tracked suspicious movement among the Baltimore secessionists . It was in part through her undercover work in the guise of : </P> <P> ( A ) rich southern lady visiting Baltimore with a thick southern accent that apparently Mrs. Warne infiltrated secessionist social gatherings , in the Baltimore area , places such as the classy Barnum Hotel posing as a flirting `` Southern belle '' and was quick to not only verify that there was a plot to assassinate Lincoln , she developed details of how the assassination was going to occur . </P> <P> Pinkerton had agents across Maryland . However , it was Warne specifically who supplied many key details , causing Pinkerton to believe that the plot was imminent . Warne had befriended secessionists in Maryland and collected many details about the plot to assassinate Lincoln . </P> <P> The president - elect , Abraham Lincoln , was traveling from his home in Springfield , Illinois , to the Capital via a train tour that was to stop at notable cities along the way . His published program showed that Lincoln 's last leg of the journey was from Harrisburg , Pennsylvania , to Washington , D.C. Due to the configuration of the rail system , all southbound trains required a transfer to be made in Baltimore , Maryland . The northbound station ended at Calvert Street and the southbound train station started at Camden Street ( now the Camden Yards station ) . The distance between these two stations were about a mile by carriage ride . </P> <P> The secessionist plot to kill Lincoln was : </P> <P> just as Mr. Lincoln would be passing through the narrow vestibule of the Depot at Calvert St. Station , to enter his carriage . A row or fight was to be got up by some outsiders to quell which the few policemen at the Depot would rush out , thus leaving Mr. Lincoln entirely unprotected and at the mercy of a mob of Secessionists who were to surround him at that time . A small Steamer had been chartered and was lying in one of the Bays or little streams running into the Chesapeake Bay , to which the murderers were to flee and it was immediately to put off for Virginia . </P> <P> After seeing the pieces of the plot coming together , Pinkerton requested of Kate Warne on the morning of February 18 to take the 5 : 10 evening train to New York City . Once there , she was to set up a meeting with Norman B. Judd and place into his confidence a letter from Pinkerton stating all the hereto discovered details of the assassination attempt . After Warne supplied details of the Baltimore Plot to Judd , Judd set up a meeting between himself , Pinkerton and Lincoln on February 21 . At this meeting , Lincoln was doubtful about an assassination plot , or that if such a plot existed that it should be taken seriously . </P> <P> However , a second independent source confirmed the plot by way of Frederick W. Seward , son of William H. Seward ( the secretary of state -- designate ) . From this point , Lincoln agreed that the assassination plot was plausible enough to take action . Lincoln decided to avoid hazard where it was not necessary , however he refused to cancel any of his scheduled plans in Harrisburg . His agenda included giving three speeches , the raising of the American flag , at Independence Hall , and attending a high - profile dinner . </P> <P> Accordingly , they made train arrangements that allowed Lincoln to fulfill his scheduled duties in Harrisburg . It was not until 5 : 45 that night that there was any deviation from his schedule . John George Nicolay , Lincoln 's private secretary , interrupted the dinner party to excuse the president - elect . Lincoln then changed into a traveling suit , a soft felt cap and carried a shawl upon one arm to play the role of an invalid . Pinkerton , meanwhile , had the telegraph lines interrupted to prevent any knowledge of the deviation in Lincoln 's schedule . At the station , Warne entered the sleeping car through the rear along with Pinkerton , Ward Hill Lamon , and a still - disguised Lincoln . She greeted Lincoln loudly as she would have a true brother . </P> <P> From Harrisburg , Abraham Lincoln rode to Philadelphia by a special Pennsylvania Railroad train . From Philadelphia he went to Baltimore by a special Philadelphia , Wilmington , and Baltimore train on the night of February 22 -- 23 . It is said that Kate Warne did not sleep a wink on the overnight trip from Pennsylvania to Washington D.C. The disguises provided by Warne that night enabled Lincoln to make it through Baltimore without recognition and take his seat in the White House . It is believed that Pinkerton came up with the slogan to his agency `` we never sleep '' as a result of Warne 's guard of Lincoln that night . Warne was key in the foiled Baltimore assassination plot -- not only did she help uncover its details , but she also carried out most of the arrangements to smuggle Lincoln into Washington , D.C. She couriered secret information and set up meetings as well as securing the necessary four berths on a train leaving Philadelphia under the pretext that these berths were for her sick brother and family members . The train pulled out shortly before 11 p.m. and arrived in Baltimore about 3 : 30 a.m. on February 23 . Warne remained in Baltimore as the sleeping cars with Lincoln on board were shifted to another train , which arrived in Washington around 6 a.m. </P> <H2> Civil War : Intelligence work for the union , 1861 -- 1865 ( edit ) </H2> During the American Civil War Kate Warne traveled with her boss , Allan Pinkerton , to meet with General George B.

For other uses , see Solomon 's Temple ( disambiguation ) . Artist 's interpretation of the First Temple in Jerusalem <P> According to the Hebrew Bible , Solomon 's Temple , also known as the First Temple , was the Holy Temple ( Hebrew : בֵּית ־ הַמִּקְדָּשׁ ‬ : Beit HaMikdash ) in ancient Jerusalem before its destruction by Nebuchadnezzar II after the Siege of Jerusalem of 587 BCE and its subsequent replacement with the Second Temple in the 6th century BCE . </P> <P> The Hebrew Bible states that the temple was constructed under Solomon , king of the United Kingdom of Israel and Judah and that during the Kingdom of Judah , the temple was dedicated to Yahweh , and is said to have housed the Ark of the Covenant . Jewish historian Josephus says that `` the temple was burnt four hundred and seventy years , six months , and ten days after it was built '' , although rabbinic sources state that the First Temple stood for 410 years and , based on the 2nd - century work Seder Olam Rabbah , place construction in 832 BCE and destruction in 422 BCE , 165 years later than secular estimates . </P> <P> Because of the religious sensitivities involved , and the politically volatile situation in Jerusalem , only limited archaeological surveys of the Temple Mount have been conducted . No archaeological excavations have been allowed on the Temple Mount during modern times . Therefore , there are very few pieces of archaeological evidence for the existence of Solomon 's Temple . An Ivory pomegranate which mentions priests in the house `` of -- - h '' , and an inscription recording the Temple 's restoration under Jehoash have both appeared on the antiquities market , but their authenticity has been challenged and they are the subject of controversy . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 In the Tanakh <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Architectural description <Ul> <Li> 1.1. 1 Holy of Holies </Li> <Li> 1.1. 2 Hekhal <Ul> <Li> 1.1. 2.1 Etymology </Li> <Li> 1.1. 2.2 Use in architecture </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 1.1. 3 Porch </Li> <Li> 1.1. 4 Chambers </Li> <Li> 1.1. 5 Courts </Li> <Li> 1.1. 6 Molten Sea </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 1.2 Dedication </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Archaeology </Li> <Li> 3 Other contemporary temples </Li> <Li> 4 Freemasonry </Li> <Li> 5 Kabbalah </Li> <Li> 6 Islam </Li> <Li> 7 Popular culture </Li> <Li> 8 See also </Li> <Li> 9 Footnotes </Li> <Li> 10 References </Li> <Li> 11 Further reading </Li> <Li> 12 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> In the Tanakh ( edit ) </H2> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> This section possibly contains original research .

( August 2014 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) </Td> </Tr> </Table> In an artistic representation , King Solomon dedicates the Temple at Jerusalem ( painting by James Tissot or follower , c. 1896 -- 1902 ) <P> The only source of information on the First Temple is the Tanakh . According to the biblical sources , the temple was constructed under Solomon , during the united monarchy of Israel and Judah . The Bible describes Hiram I of Tyre who furnished architects , workmen and cedar timbers for the temple of his ally Solomon at Jerusalem . He also co-operated with Solomon in mounting an expedition on the Red Sea . 1 Kings 6 : 1 puts the date of the beginning of building the temple `` in the fourth year of Solomon 's reign over Israel '' . The conventional dates of Solomon 's reign are circa 970 to 931 BCE . This puts the date of its construction in the mid-10th century BCE . Schmid and Rupprecht are of the view that the site of the temple used to be a Jebusite shrine which Solomon chose in an attempt to unify the Jebusites and Israelites. 1 Kings 9 : 10 says that it took Solomon 20 years altogether to build the Temple and his royal palace . The Temple itself finished being built after 7 years . During the united monarchy the Temple was dedicated to Yahweh , the God of Israel , and housed the Ark of the Covenant . Rabbinic sources state that the First Temple stood for 410 years and , based on the 2nd - century work Seder Olam Rabbah , place construction in 832 BCE and destruction in 422 BCE ( 3338 AM ) , 165 years later than secular estimates . </P> <P> The exact location of the Temple is unknown : it is believed to have been situated upon the hill which forms the site of the 1st century Second Temple and present - day Temple Mount , where the Dome of the Rock is situated . </P> <P> According to the Tanakh , the Temple was plundered by the Neo-Babylonian Empire king Nebuchadnezzar II when the Babylonians attacked Jerusalem during the brief reign of Jehoiachin c. 598 BCE ( 2 Kings 24 : 13 ) . A decade later , Nebuchadnezzar again besieged Jerusalem and after 30 months finally breached the city walls in 587 BCE , subsequently burning the Temple , along with most of the city ( 2 Kings 25 ) . According to Jewish tradition , the Temple was destroyed on Tisha B'Av , the 9th day of Av ( Hebrew calendar ) . </P> <H3> Architectural description ( edit ) </H3> Plan of Solomon 's Temple , published 1905 Plan of Solomon 's Temple with measurements <P> The Temple of Solomon is considered to be built according to Phoenician design , and its description is considered the best description of what a Phoenician temple looked like . The detailed descriptions provided in the Tanakh are the sources for reconstructions of its appearance . Technical details are lacking , since the scribes who wrote the books were not architects or engineers . Nevertheless , the descriptions have inspired modern replicas of the temple and influenced later structures around the world . </P> <P> Reconstructions differ ; the following is largely based on Easton 's Bible Dictionary and the Jewish Encyclopedia : </P> Holy of Holies ( edit ) <P> The Holy of Holies , or Kodesh haKodashim in Hebrew , ( 1 Kings 6 : 19 ; 8 : 6 ) , also called the `` Inner House '' ( 6 : 27 ) , ( Heb. 9 : 3 ) was 20 cubits in length , breadth , and height . The usual explanation for the discrepancy between its height and the 30 - cubit height of the temple is that its floor was elevated , like the cella of other ancient temples . It was floored and wainscotted with cedar of Lebanon ( 1 Kings 6 : 16 ) , and its walls and floor were overlaid with gold ( 6 : 20 , 21 , 30 ) amounting to 600 talents ( 2 Chr. 3 : 8 ) or roughly 20 metric tons . It contained two cherubim of olive - wood , each 10 cubits high ( 1 Kings 6 : 16 , 20 , 21 , 23 -- 28 ) and each having outspread wings of 10 cubits span , so that , since they stood side by side , the wings touched the wall on either side and met in the center of the room . There was a two - leaved door between it and the Holy Place overlaid with gold ( 2 Chr. 4 : 22 ) ; also a veil of tekhelet ( blue ) , purple , and crimson and fine linen ( 2 Chronicles 3 : 14 ; compare Exodus 26 : 33 ) . It had no windows ( 1 Kings 8 : 12 ) and was considered the dwelling - place of the `` name '' of God . </P> <P> The Kodesh haKodashim ( the Holy of Holies ) was prepared to receive and house the Ark ( 1 Kings 6 : 19 ) ; and when the Temple was dedicated , the Ark , containing the original tablets of the Ten Commandments , was placed beneath the cherubim ( 1 Kings 8 : 6 ) . </P> Hekhal ( edit ) <P> The Hekhal , or Holy Place , ( 1 Kings 8 : 8 -- 10 ) , is also called the `` greater house '' ( 2 Chr. 3 : 5 ) and the `` temple '' ( 1 Kings 6 : 17 ) ; the word also means `` palace '' , was of the same width and height as the Holy of Holies , but 40 cubits in length . Its walls were lined with cedar , on which were carved figures of cherubim , palm - trees , and open flowers , which were overlaid with gold . Chains of gold further marked it off from the Holy of Holies . The floor of the Temple was of fir - wood overlaid with gold . The door - posts , of olive - wood , supported folding - doors of fir . The doors of the Holy of Holies were of olive - wood . On both sets of doors were carved cherubim , palm - trees , and flowers , all being overlaid with gold ( 1 Kings 6 : 15 et seq . ) </P> Etymology ( edit ) <P> The Hebrew noun hekhal ( Hebrew היכל ) in Classical Hebrew means `` a large building '' . This can be either the main building of the Temple in Jerusalem ( that is the nave , or sanctuary , of the Temple ) , or a palace such as the `` palace '' of Ahab , king of Samaria , or the `` palace '' of the King of Babylon . </P> <P> Hekhal is used 80 times in the Masoretic Text of the Hebrew Bible . Of these , 70 refer to the House of the LORD ( in Hebrew Bible בֵּית יְהוָה beit Yahweh ) , the other 10 are references to palaces . There is no reference to any part of the tabernacle using this term in the Hebrew Bible . </P> <P> `` In the year that king Uzziah died . I saw the LORD sitting upon a throne high and lifted up , and His train filled the hekhal ( sanctuary ) . '' Isaiah 6 : 1 . </P> Use in Architecture ( edit ) <P> In older English versions of the Bible , including the King James Version , the term `` temple '' is used to translate hekhal . In modern versions more reflective of archaeological research , the distinction is made of different sections of the whole Temple . Scholars and archaeologists generally agree on the structure of Solomon 's Temple as described in 1 Kings 6 : 3 -- 5 , with the main building , the hekhal , in English now sometimes called `` the sanctuary '' , the devir , the inner sanctuary , and finally the Holy of Holies . </P> <P> This main building was between the outer altar , where most sacrifices were performed , and inside at the far end was the entry to the Holy of Holies , originally containing the Ark of the Covenant . The main hekhal contained a number of sacred ritual objects including the seven branched candlestick , the inner altar for incense offerings ( also called the `` Golden Altar '' ) , and the table of the showbread . </P> <P> The same architectural layout of the temple

Other authors in the eighteenth century also used three dots in a triangle shape to signify `` therefore , '' but as with Rahn , there was n't much in the way of consistency as to how the triangle was oriented ; because with its current meaning appears to have originated in the nineteenth century .

Starr co-wrote the song with George Harrison , his former bandmate from the Beatles . Although the two of them collaborated on other compositions , it is the only song officially credited to the pair . A signature tune for Starr as a solo artist , `` Photograph '' became an international hit , topping singles charts in the United States , Canada and Australia , and receiving gold disc certification for US sales of 1 million . Music critics have similarly received the song favourably ; Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic considers it to be `` among the very best post-Beatles songs by any of the Fab Four '' . </P> <P> The lyrics are a reflection on lost love , whereby a photograph is the only reminder of the protagonists ' shared past . Starr and Harrison began writing the song in the South of France in 1971 , during a period when Starr was focused on developing his acting career . They first recorded `` Photograph '' late the following year , along with the single 's B - side , `` Down and Out '' , during sessions for Harrison 's Living in the Material World album ( 1973 ) . The officially released version was recorded in Los Angeles with producer Richard Perry , and it incorporates aspects of Phil Spector 's Wall of Sound through the presence of multiple drums and acoustic guitars , as well as an orchestra and a choir . Aside from Starr and Harrison , the musicians on the recording include Nicky Hopkins , Bobby Keys , Jim Keltner , and Spector 's musical arranger , Jack Nitzsche . Starr made a promotional film for the single , shot at his and wife Maureen Starkey 's home , Tittenhurst Park . </P> <P> `` Photograph '' has appeared on Starr 's compilation albums Blast from Your Past ( 1975 ) and Photograph : The Very Best of Ringo Starr ( 2007 ) , and live versions have featured on releases recorded with his All - Starr Band and with the Roundheads . In November 2002 , a year after Harrison 's death , Starr sang `` Photograph '' at the Concert for George -- a performance that was an emotional highpoint of the event . Engelbert Humperdinck , Camper Van Beethoven , Cilla Black and Adam Sandler are among the artists who have covered the song . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Background and composition </Li> <Li> 2 Recording <Ul> <Li> 2.1 `` Down and Out '' </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Release </Li> <Li> 4 Reception </Li> <Li> 5 Re-releases and live versions <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Performance at the Concert for George </Li> <Li> 5.2 Performance at the 2014 Grammy Awards </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 Cover versions and references </Li> <Li> 7 Personnel </Li> <Li> 8 Chart performance and sales certifications <Ul> <Li> 8.1 Weekly charts </Li> <Li> 8.2 Year - end charts </Li> <Li> 8.3 Certifications </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 9 Notes </Li> <Li> 10 References </Li> <Li> 11 Sources </Li> <Li> 12 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Background and composition ( edit ) </H2> <P> Ex-Beatles Ringo Starr and George Harrison began writing `` Photograph '' on a luxury yacht in the South of France in May 1971 . Starr had hired a yacht , the Marala , for the duration of the Cannes Film Festival , after attending Mick Jagger 's wedding in St Tropez with his wife , Maureen Starkey . The Starkeys were then joined in France by Harrison and the latter 's wife , Pattie Boyd , for the Monaco Grand Prix . This period coincided with Starr 's first success as a solo artist , with the Harrison - produced single `` It Do n't Come Easy '' , although he would continue to focus on his career as a film actor , beginning with a role in Blindman ( 1971 ) . </P> <P> Another guest on the Marala was Cilla Black , singer and a friend to the Beatles since the 1960s , who recalls Starr and Harrison playing `` Photograph '' during an evening get - together , with `` everyone on board '' contributing ideas for the lyrics . As with Starr 's two singles over 1971 -- 72 , `` It Do n't Come Easy '' and `` Back Off Boogaloo '' , Harrison helped write the melody , although `` Photograph '' would mark the first time that he was credited as a co-writer with Starr . In her autobiography , Step Inside Love , Black says she had hoped to record the song for a single later in 1971 , only to be told by Starr : `` No , it 's too bloody good for you . I 'm having it myself . '' </P> <P> The lyric to `` Photograph '' is centred around lost love , with the singer having only a single picture by which to remember his absent lover . The eponymous photograph reminds him of their former happiness together , while also enforcing the reality that `` you 're not coming back any more '' . Author Ian Inglis comments on the familiar subject matter in the conventions of pop songwriting , but identifies an `` unusual '' aspect in the lyrics ' `` absence of any hope that love might be rekindled '' . Starr expresses resignation at what the future holds , in the lines `` Now you 're expecting me to live without you / But that 's not something that I 'm looking forward to '' . </P> <P> Musically , the song is in the key of E , with what Inglis terms an `` easy melody '' that allows for Starr 's limitations as a singer . Harrison 's `` distinctive composing style '' is particularly evident , according to authors Roy Carr and Tony Tyler , and Starr would later say of Harrison 's role in their collaborations over this period : `` I only know three chords and he 'd stick four more in , and they 'd all think I was a genius . '' </P> <H2> Recording ( edit ) </H2> <P> Starr continued to pursue his film career until the end of 1972 , while also participating in musical projects such as Harrison 's Concert for Bangladesh . Late that year , Starr and Harrison recorded an early version of `` Photograph '' during the sessions for Harrison 's Living in the Material World album ( 1973 ) . With Harrison producing , this recording took place at either Apple Studio in central London , or Harrison 's home studio , FPSHOT , in Oxfordshire . </P> <P> Starr re-recorded the song in March 1973 , while working at Sunset Sound Recorders in Los Angeles on Ringo , his first solo album in the rock or contemporary pop style . He later described Ringo as an `` accidental album '' , since it only came about because he was attending the Grammy Awards in Nashville , where The Concert for Bangladesh won the Grammy for Best Album of 1972 . Keen to find another activity to justify the flight to the US , Starr arranged to record with American producer Richard Perry during the visit . </P> <P> The recording engineer on `` Photograph '' was Bill Schnee , and author Simon Leng suggests that Harrison helped `` hew '' the production . Along with Starr ( on drums ) and Harrison ( 12 - string acoustic guitar ) , the other musicians included Nicky Hopkins ( piano ) , Klaus Voormann ( bass ) and Jim Keltner ( drums ) , all of whom had participated in the sessions for Material World . In addition , Vini Poncia , Starr 's new songwriting partner , and session musician Jimmy Calvert played acoustic rhythm guitar on the Los Angeles recording . </P> <P> Overdubs on the basic tracks recorded for Ringo took place from April to July 1973 . On `` Photograph '' , the additional instrumentation included a saxophone solo by Bobby Keys and percussion played by one of Harrison 's Apple Records signings , brothers Lon and Derrek Van Eaton . Harrison added harmony and backing vocals , supporting Starr 's lead vocal part . </P> Musical arranger Jack Nitzsche helped give the recording a sound typical of Phil Spector 's hit productions from the 1960s ; photo by Brian Ashley White <P> Jack Nitzsche , Phil Spector 's musical arranger for much of the 1960s , provided the song 's string and choral arrangements , which were overdubbed at Burbank Studios on 29 June . Aside from Nitzsche 's contributions , the recording incorporates aspects of Spector 's Wall of Sound production through the use of multiple rhythm guitars and drums , and prominent percussion such as castanets . Leng draws parallels between the `` resonant arrangement '' on `` Photograph '' and the production that Harrison adopted for Ravi Shankar 's song `` I Am Missing You '' , an April 1973 recording that also featured Starr . </P> <H3> `` Down and Out '' ( edit ) </H3> <P> With `` Photograph '' selected as the album 's lead single , Starr chose `` Down and Out '' , a song written by him alone , for the B - side . Starr recorded the song in England , backed by Harrison , pianist Gary Wright and Voormann . The Harrison - produced session most likely took place in 1972 , according to authors Chip Madinger and Mark Easter , during the same period as Starr and Harrison 's first attempt at recording `` Photograph '' . </P> <P> A twelve - bar blues with what Starr biographer Alan Clayson describes as `` perfunctory '' lyrics , the recording features solos from Harrison , on slide guitar , and Wright . Perry subsequently added a

Perry was soon confirmed as the headliner of the halftime show in October 2014 . In late November , 2015 , reports surfaced stating that multiple acts would perform during the halftime show . Coldplay was confirmed as the lead half time performer for Super Bowl 50 on December 3 , 2015 , one day before the release of their seventh studio album A Head Full of Dreams . It was confirmed that Beyoncé and Bruno Mars would join Coldplay as special guests . Chris Martin called Mars to ask him to perform with Coldplay ; however , Mars declined the offer . Nevertheless , the singer of Coldplay invited Mars to his studio in Malibu where he was working . There , Martin revealed to Mars that he wanted for him to perform `` Uptown Funk '' with Beyonce . Despite this , Mars still did n't think it was a good idea and asked the former to talk to Beyonce to see what was her opinion on that . Martin videotaped him and Mars , while the former sang a song to Beyoncé so that she would come to do the Super Bowl with both of them . Beyonce response was receptive to the idea . </P> <P> At that time , Mars and Beyoncé were both doing a diet and stressing out . One day before the performance they were `` watching playback backstage '' , while Beyonce ate a bag of Cheetos . Mars asked her `` That 's what you 're doing ? '' , to which she replied `` There 's nothing more we can do these last two days . It 's gon na be what it 's gon na be . So I 'm gon na enjoy this bag of Cheetos . '' Mars strongly believes that Beyoncé is `` coming for you every single time . So you better bring your A-game every time .

He was then joined by the remaining band members of Coldplay to perform `` Viva la Vida '' , `` Paradise '' , and `` Adventure of a Lifetime '' with the Youth Orchestra Los Angeles conducted by Gustavo Dudamel and the University of California Marching Band . Bruno Mars , Mark Ronson , and a troupe of backing dancers ( dressed in the style of Michael Jackson ) then performed `` Uptown Funk '' . Beyoncé , also in a Jackson - inspired outfit and appearing with a set of backing dancers dressed as Black Panthers , then performed her new single `` Formation '' in a mass choreographed dance number before joining Mars onstage for a verse of `` Uptown Funk '' . Coldplay played a snippet of `` Clocks '' during a video montage of past Super Bowl halftime and national anthem performances , including those by Bruce Springsteen , Missy Elliott , Katy Perry , The Rolling Stones , Paul McCartney , Stevie Wonder , Diana Ross , James Brown , Whitney Houston , Michael Jackson , The Black Eyed Peas , U2 , Prince , Beyoncé and Mars . The show concluded with the band performing `` Fix You '' and `` Up&Up '' with Beyoncé , Mars and everyone taking part in the show . At the end of the performance , the audience participated in a card - stunt creating a rainbow and the phrase , `` Believe in love '' , the closing lyrics to Coldplay 's A Head Full of Dreams . </P> <H2> Critical reception ( edit ) </H2> Bruno Mars performed at the Super Bowl 50 halftime show and received positive reviews . <P> The performance received generally mixed review from critics , who complimented Beyoncé and Mars ' part of the performance but were critical of Coldplay . Jon Caramanica of The New York Times stated that Coldplay `` acted more as a stagehand than an actual performer '' while Beyoncé 's section of the performance was `` the night 's true event '' . Caramanica also noted that Beyoncé and Mars `` outsang '' Martin during the closing part of the performance . Andrew Barker of Variety similarly noted that `` Coldplay seemed resigned to politely allowing themselves to be played right off their own stage '' by the `` far flashier '' Mars and Beyoncé . In a review for Fox Sports , Chris Chase panned Coldplay 's performance , calling it `` inexplicable , indecipherable , and unnecessary '' and a `` musical snooze '' . Chase complimented Beyoncé 's and Mars ' appearances but described the performance as `` boring '' . Alex Needham of The Guardian gave the performance four stars , saying that `` Queen Bey at the height of her powers effortlessly overwhelmed Coldplay 's widescreen anthems in a show that seemed lightweight until she showed up '' . </P> Beyoncé , seen here performing at the show , was both praised and castigated for her performance . <P> Robert Bianco of USA Today stated that Martin `` seemed overwhelmed '' by the size of the event , and that despite being a `` personable and energetic performer '' , an `` awful lot '' of Martin 's energy `` went into jumping '' . Bianco praised Beyoncé 's appearance and stated that she `` stole the show '' . Wendy Geller of Yahoo ! also complimented Beyoncé 's and Mars ' appearances , but criticized the montage of previous halftime performances , describing it as `` confusing rather than touching '' and stating that the performance was `` definitely a cold play '' . </P> <H3> Controversy ( edit ) </H3> <P> Following the performance , Beyoncé was criticized for performing a song that they considered to be `` anti-police '' during the halftime show and for appearing to align herself with the Black Lives Matter movement . Former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani accused the performance of being anti-police and also criticized Beyoncé 's use of Black Power and Black Panther Party symbolism in her dance routine . `` This is football , not Hollywood , and I thought it was really outrageous that she used it as a platform to attack police officers who are the people who protect her and protect us , and keep us alive , '' he said . The controversy caused a `` # BoycottBeyonce '' hashtag on Twitter and protesters announced plans for an `` anti-Beyoncé '' rally on the morning of February 16 outside of the NFL 's headquarters in New York City , but no one showed up for such a rally . CNN political commentator Sally Kohn stated that `` too many police continue to show themselves to be far more interested in reactionary defensiveness and preserving the abusive status quo . '' Black Lives Matter activist Melina Abdullah praised Beyoncé and other artists who `` are willing to raise social consciousness and use their artistry to advance social justice . '' </P> <H2> Commercial reception ( edit ) </H2> <P> The halftime show became the fourth highest ever watched show in the United States , with total viewership of 115.5 million . </P> <H2> Set list ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> `` Yellow '' </Li> <Li> `` Viva la Vida '' </Li> <Li> `` Paradise '' </Li> <Li> `` Adventure of a Lifetime '' </Li> <Li> `` Uptown Funk '' ( Mark Ronson featuring Bruno Mars ) ( contains elements of `` U Ca n't Touch This '' ) </Li> <Li> `` Formation '' ( Beyoncé ) ( contains elements of `` Crazy in Love '' ) </Li> <Li> `` Fix You '' / `` Up&Up '' ( featuring Mars and Beyoncé ) ( contains elements of `` Clocks '' , `` Midnight '' , `` Independent Women , Pt 1 '' , `` Just the Way You Are '' , `` Purple Rain '' and `` Beautiful Day '' ) </Li> </Ol> <P> Setlist obtained from Billboard . </P> <H2> See also ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> 2016 in American music </Li> <Li> 2016 in American television </Li> </Ul> <H2> References ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> ^ Jump up to : `` Coldplay performed at Pepsi Super Bowl 50 Halftime Show '' ( Press release ) .

Recognised in 2015 by the Swiss authorities as an `` other international body '' under Switzerland 's Host State Act 2007 ( HSA , SR 192.12 ) , its mission is cited as `` committed to improving the state of the world by engaging business , political , academic , and other leaders of society to shape global , regional , and industry agendas '' . </P> <P> The forum is best known for its annual meeting at the end of January in Davos , a mountain resort in Graubünden , in the eastern Alps region of Switzerland . The meeting brings together some 2,500 top business leaders , international political leaders , economists , celebrities and journalists for up to four days to discuss the most pressing issues facing the world . Often this location alone is used to identify meetings , participation , and participants , with such phrases as `` a Davos panel '' and `` Davos man '' being used . </P> <P> The organization also convenes some six to eight regional meetings each year in locations across Africa , East Asia , and Latin America , and holds two further annual meetings in China , India and the United Arab Emirates .

F.W. de Klerk and Nelson Mandela shake hands at the annual meeting of the World Economic Forum held in Davos in January 1992 Naoto Kan , then Japanese prime minister gives a special message at the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting 2011 Klaus Schwab , founder and executive chairman , World Economic Forum Carlos Ghosn , the chairman and CEO of Renault , Nissan , Renault - Nissan Alliance and the Chairman of AvtoVAZ <P> The forum was founded in 1971 by Klaus Schwab , a German - born business professor at the University of Geneva . First named the `` European Management Forum '' , it changed its name to the World Economic Forum in 1987 and sought to broaden its vision to include providing a platform for resolving international conflicts . </P> <P> In the summer of 1971 , Schwab invited 444 executives from Western European firms to the first European Management Symposium held in the Davos Congress Centre under the patronage of the European Commission and European industrial associations , where Schwab sought to introduce European firms to American management practices . He then founded the WEF as a nonprofit organization based in Geneva and drew European business leaders to Davos for the annual meetings each January . </P> <P> Schwab developed the `` stakeholder '' management approach , which attributed corporate success to managers actively taking account of all interests : not merely shareholders , clients , and customers , but also employees and the communities within which the firm is situated , including governments . Events in 1973 , including the collapse of the Bretton Woods fixed - exchange rate mechanism and the Arab -- Israeli War , saw the annual meeting expand its focus from management to economic and social issues , and , for the first time , political leaders were invited to the annual meeting in January 1974 . </P> <P> Political leaders soon began to use the annual meeting as a neutral platform . The Davos Declaration was signed in 1988 by Greece and Turkey , helping them turn back from the brink of war . In 1992 , South African President F.W. de Klerk met with Nelson Mandela and Chief Mangosuthu Buthelezi at the annual meeting , their first joint appearance outside South Africa . At the 1994 annual meeting , Israeli Foreign Minister Shimon Peres and PLO chairman Yasser Arafat reached a draft agreement on Gaza and Jericho . </P> <P> In late 2015 , the invitation was extended to include a North Korean delegation for the 2016 forum , `` in view of positive signs coming out of the country , '' the WEF organizers noted . North Korea has not been attending the WEF since 1998 . The invitation was accepted but after the January 2016 North Korean nuclear test on 6 January , the invitation was revoked , and the country 's delegation was made subject to `` existing and possible forthcoming sanctions . '' Despite protests by North Korea calling the decision by the WEF managing board a `` sudden and irresponsible '' move , the WEF committee maintained the exclusion because `` under these circumstances there would be no opportunity for international dialogue . '' </P> <P> In 2017 , the World Economic Forum in Davos attracted considerable attention when for the first time , a head of state from the People 's Republic of China was present at the alpine resort . With the backdrop of Brexit , an incoming protectionist US administration and significant pressures on free trade zones and trade agreements , President Xi Jinping defended the global economic scheme , and portrayed China as a responsible nation and a leader for environmental causes . He sharply rebuked the current populist movements that would introduce tariffs and hinder global commerce , warning that such protectionism could foster isolation and reduced economic opportunity . </P> <P> In 2018 , Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi gave the plenary speech becoming the first head of state from India to deliver the inaugural keynote for the annual meet at Davos . Modi highlighted climate change , terrorism and protectionism as the three major global challenges , and expressed confidence that they can be tackled with collective effort . </P> <H2> Organization ( edit ) </H2> <P> Headquartered in Cologny , the forum also has offices in New York , Beijing and Tokyo . On October 10 , 2016 , the Forum announced the opening of its new Center for the Fourth Industrial Revolution in San Francisco . According to the Forum , the center will `` serve as a platform for interaction , insight and impact on the scientific and technological changes that are changing the way we live , work and relate to one another '' . </P> <P> The World Economic Forum strives to be impartial and is not tied to any political , partisan , or national interests . The foundation is `` committed to improving the State of the World '' . Until 2012 , it had observer status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council ; it is under the supervision of the Swiss Federal Council . The foundation 's highest governance body is the foundation board . </P> Erdoğan walks out of the session at the World Economic Forum in 2009 . <P> During its annual meeting , more than 2,500 participants from slightly fewer than 100 countries gather in Davos . Approximately 1,500 are business leaders , drawn from its members , 1,000 of the world 's top companies . Besides these , participants included 219 public figures , including 40 heads of state or government , 64 cabinet ministers , 30 heads or senior officials of international organizations , and 10 ambassadors . More than 432 participants were from civil society , including 32 heads or representatives of non-governmental organizations , 225 media leaders , 149 leaders from academic institutions and think tanks , 15 religious leaders of different faiths , and 11 union leaders . </P> <H3> Membership ( edit ) </H3> <P> The foundation is funded by its 1,000 member companies , typically global enterprises with more than five billion dollars in turnover ( varying by industry and region ) . These enterprises rank among the top companies within their industry and / or country and play a leading role in shaping the future of their industry and / or region . Membership is stratified by the level of engagement with forum activities , with the level of membership fees increasing as participation in meetings , projects , and initiatives rises . As of 2011 , an annual membership costs $52,000 for an individual member , $263,000 for `` Industry Partner '' and $527,000 for `` Strategic Partner '' . An admission fee costs $19,000 per person . In 2014 , WEF raised annual fees by 20 percent , making the cost for `` Strategic Partner '' from CHF 500,000 ( $523,000 ) to CHF 600,000 ( $628,000 ) . </P> <H2> Activities ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Annual meeting in Davos ( edit ) </H3> A sports shop has turned into a temporary informal reception location `` Caspian week '' , WEF 2018 . <P> The flagship event of the foundation is the invitation - only annual meeting held during the winter at the end of January in Davos , Switzerland , bringing together chief executive officers from its 1,000 member companies , as well as selected politicians , representatives from academia , NGOs , religious leaders , and the media in an alpine winter environment . The town is small enough to allow participants to meet anywhere outside the sessions and allows them the greatest opportunities to attend receptions organized by companies and countries . The participants are also taking part in role playing events , such as the Investment Heat Map . Informal winter meetings may have led to as many ideas and solutions as the official sessions . Approximately 2,200 participants gather for the five - day event and attend some of the 220 sessions in the official programme . The winter discussions focus around key issues of global concern ( such as the globalization , capital markets , wealth management , international conflicts , environmental problems and their possible solutions ) . </P> <P> As many as 500 journalists from online , print , radio , and television take part , with access to all sessions in the official program , some of which are also

Comprising Redwood National Park ( established 1968 ) and California 's Del Norte Coast , Jedediah Smith , and Prairie Creek Redwoods State Parks ( dating from the 1920s ) , the combined RNSP contain 139,000 acres ( 560 km ) , and feature old - growth temperate rainforests . Located entirely within Del Norte and Humboldt Counties , the four parks , together , protect 45 % of all remaining coast redwood ( Sequoia sempervirens ) old - growth forests , totaling at least 38,982 acres ( 157.75 km ) . These trees are the tallest and one of the most massive tree species on Earth . In addition to the redwood forests , the parks preserve other indigenous flora , fauna , grassland prairie , cultural resources , portions of rivers and other streams , and 37 miles ( 60 km ) of pristine coastline . </P> <P> In 1850 , old - growth redwood forest covered more than 2,000,000 acres ( 8,100 km ) of the California coast . The northern portion of that area , originally inhabited by Native Americans , attracted many lumbermen and others turned gold miners when a minor gold rush brought them to the region . Failing in efforts to strike it rich in gold , these men turned toward harvesting the giant trees for booming development in San Francisco and other places on the West Coast . After many decades of unrestricted clear - cut logging , serious efforts toward conservation began . By the 1920s the work of the Save - the - Redwoods League , founded in 1918 to preserve remaining old - growth redwoods , resulted in the establishment of Prairie Creek , Del Norte Coast , and Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Parks among others . Redwood National Park was created in 1968 , by which time nearly 90 % of the original redwood trees had been logged . The National Park Service ( NPS ) and the California Department of Parks and Recreation ( CDPR ) administratively combined Redwood National Park with the three abutting Redwood State Parks in 1994 for the purpose of cooperative forest management and stabilization of forests and watersheds as a single unit . </P> <P> The ecosystem of the RNSP preserves a number of threatened animal species such as the tidewater goby , Chinook salmon , northern spotted owl , and Steller 's sea lion . In recognition of the rare ecosystem and cultural history found in the parks , the United Nations designated them a World Heritage Site on September 5 , 1980 and part of the California Coast Ranges International Biosphere Reserve on June 30 , 1983 . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History </Li> <Li> 2 Park management </Li> <Li> 3 Natural resources <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Flora </Li> <Li> 3.2 Fauna </Li> <Li> 3.3 Invasive species </Li> <Li> 3.4 Geology </Li> <Li> 3.5 Climate </Li> <Li> 3.6 Fire management </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Recreation </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> Reconstruction of a Yurok Native American plankhouse constructed of redwood boards <P> Modern day native groups such as the Yurok , Tolowa , Karok , Chilula , and Wiyot all have historical ties to the region , and some Native American groups still live in the park area today . Archaeological study shows they arrived in the area as far back as 3,000 years ago . An 1852 census determined that the Yurok were the most numerous , with 55 villages and an estimated population of 2,500 . They used the abundant redwood , which with its linear grain was easily split into planks , as a building material for boats , houses , and small villages . For buildings , the planks would be erected side by side in a narrow trench , with the upper portions bound with leather strapping and held by notches cut into the supporting roof beams . Redwood boards were used to form a shallow sloping roof . </P> <P> Previous to Jedediah Smith in 1828 , no other explorer of European descent is known to have thoroughly investigated the inland region away from the immediate coast . The discovery of gold along the Trinity River in 1850 led to a minor secondary rush in California . This brought miners into the area and many stayed on at the coast after failing to strike it rich . This quickly led to conflicts wherein native peoples were placed under great strain , if not forcibly removed or massacred . By 1895 , only one third of the Yurok in one group of villages remained ; by 1919 , virtually all members of the Chilula tribe had either died or been assimilated into other tribes . The miners logged redwoods for building ; when this minor gold rush ended , some of them turned again to logging , cutting down the giant redwood trees . Initially , over 2,000,000 acres ( 8,100 km ) of the California and southwestern coast of Oregon were old - growth redwood forest , but by 1910 , extensive logging led conservationists and concerned citizens to begin seeking ways to preserve the remaining trees , which they saw being logged at an alarming rate . In 1911 , U.S. Representative John E. Raker , of California , became the first politician to introduce legislation for the creation of a redwood national park . However , no further action was taken by Congress at that time . </P> The coast redwood is the tallest tree species on Earth . <P> Preservation of the redwood stands in California is considered one of the most substantial conservation contributions of the Boone and Crockett Club . The Save - the - Redwoods League was founded in 1918 by Boone and Crockett Club members Madison Grant , John C. Merriam , Henry Fairfield Osborn , and future member , Frederick Russell Burnham . The initial purchases of land were made by club member Stephen Mather and William Kent . In 1921 , Boone and Crockett Club member John C. Phillips donated $32,000 to purchase land and create the Raynal Bolling Memorial Grove in the Humboldt Redwoods State Park . This was timely as U.S. Route 101 , which would soon provide nearly unfettered access to the trees , was under construction . Using matching funds provided initially by the County of Humboldt and later by the State of California , the Save - the - Redwoods League managed to protect areas of concentrated or multiple redwood groves and a few entire forests in the 1920s . As California created a state park system , beginning in 1927 , three of the preserved redwood areas became Prairie Creek Redwoods , Del Norte Coast Redwoods , and Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Parks . A fourth became Humboldt Redwoods State Park , by far the largest of the individual Redwood State Parks , but not in the Redwood National and State Park system . Because of the high demand for lumber during World War II and the construction boom that followed in the 1950s , the creation of a national park was delayed . Efforts by the Save - the - Redwoods League , the Sierra Club , and the National Geographic Society to create a national park began in the early 1960s . After intense lobbying of Congress , the bill creating Redwood National Park was signed by President Lyndon Johnson on October 2 , 1968 . The Save - the - Redwoods League and other entities purchased over 100,000 acres ( 400 km ) , which were added to existing state parks . In 1978 , 48,000 acres ( 190 km ) were added to Redwood National Park in a major expansion . However , only a fifth of that land was old - growth forest , the rest having been logged . This expansion protected the watershed along Redwood Creek from being adversely affected by logging operations outside the park . The federal and state parks were administratively combined in 1994 . </P> <P> The United Nations designated Redwood National and State Parks a World Heritage Site on September 5 , 1980 . The evaluation committee noted 50 prehistoric archaeological sites , spanning 4,500 years . It also cited ongoing research in the park by Humboldt State University researchers , among others . The park is part of a much larger region designated the California Coast Ranges International Biosphere Reserve on June 30 , 1983 . The California Coast Ranges biosphere is overseen by the University of California Natural Reserve System . </P> <P> The park has served as a filming location for numerous films . Scenes set on the forest moon Endor in Star Wars Episode VI : Return of the Jedi were filmed in the Tall Trees Redwood Grove in the northern part of Humboldt County , though the majority of filming was in private and public forests near the town of Smith River , California . Scenes for The Lost World : Jurassic Park as well as the movie Outbreak were filmed at the nearby Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park and at Patrick 's Point State Park . </P> <H2> Park management ( edit ) </H2> Map illustrates Redwood National and State Parks features and boundaries . <P> Redwood National Park headquarters is located in Crescent City , California , with a service office located in Arcata and an operations center located in Orick , California . </P> <P> Lack of money has precluded major improvements , however , and timber companies have replanted much of the logged area with non-native tree species . Coastline areas , including dunes and coastal prairie , have been invaded by exotic species , partly due to the suppression of forest fires until the 1980s . A fire management plan now allows controlled burning as one method to return the parkland to its original state . Since the redwoods were logged on the basis of accessibility , with inaccessible areas being cut last , large old - growth forest sections were isolated from one another , sometimes by

As per the Constitution of India , the governor is a state 's de jure head , but de facto executive authority rests with the chief minister . Following elections to the West Bengal Legislative Assembly , the state 's governor usually invites the party ( or coalition ) with a majority of seats to form the government . The governor appoints the chief minister , whose council of ministers are collectively responsible to the assembly . Given that he has the confidence of the assembly , the chief minister 's term is for five years and is subject to no term limits . </P> <P> West Bengal origins lie in Bengal , a province of the British Raj that included present - day Bangladesh . Between 1937 and 1947 it was intermittently governed by a popularly elected ministry , whose head is often designated the Premier of Bengal . In 1947 , Bengal province was partitioned into the Indian state of West Bengal and East Pakistan . All three erstwhile Bengal premiers -- A.K. Fazlul Huq , Khawaja Nazimuddin and H.S. Suhrawardy -- became Pakistani citizens ; the latter two went on to become Prime Ministers of Pakistan in the 1950s . </P> <P> Since 1947 , there have been eight Chief Ministers of West Bengal . The first was Prafulla Chandra Ghosh of the Indian National Congress , who was succeeded by his party - mates Dr Bidhan Chandra Roy and Prafulla Chandra Sen. A decade of instability followed , marred by fractious coalition governments and frequent impositions of President 's rule . The instability ended with 1977 election victory of the Communist Party of India ( Marxist ) ( CPM ) . Headed by Jyoti Basu , the CPM - led Left Front government was in office for over 23 years ( 1977 -- 2000 ) . Left rule in West Bengal continued for another 10 years under Buddhadeb Bhattacharya , before its defeat in the 2011 election by the Trinamool Congress . Appointed on 20 May 2011 , Trinamool leader Mamata Banerjee is the current incumbent , the state 's first woman chief minister . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Colour key for parties </Li> <Li> 2 Prime Minister of Bengal </Li> <Li> 3 Chief Ministers of West Bengal </Li> <Li> 4 See also </Li> <Li> 5 Notes </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Colour key for parties ( edit ) </H2> <Table> <Tr> <Td> All - India Muslim League All India Trinamool Congress Bangla Congress Communist Party of India ( Marxist ) Independent Indian National Congress Krishak Praja Party N / A ( President 's rule ) </Td> </Tr> </Table> <H2> Prime minister of Bengal ( edit ) </H2> Following partition , the former premiers of Bengal -- A.K.

When the song hit No. 1 , it broke a three - way tie among Harrison , John Lennon , and Ringo Starr , all of whom had two No. 1 hit singles as solo artists ( discounting Paul McCartney 's work with Wings ) . It also happened to be the No. 1 single in the US the week immediately preceding the induction of The Beatles into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame , making Harrison one of the few inductees to have an active single on the US record charts at the time of induction .

The film earned $6.9 million on a $1.6 million budget . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Plot </Li> <Li> 2 Cast </Li> <Li> 3 Production </Li> <Li> 4 Music </Li> <Li> 5 Release <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Critical response </Li> <Li> 5.2 Box office </Li> <Li> 5.3 Home media </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 Sequel and spin - off series </Li> <Li> 7 References </Li> <Li> 8 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Plot ( edit ) </H2> <P> A documentary crew follows four vampire roommates -- Viago , Vladislav , Deacon , and Petyr -- who share a flat in the Wellington suburb of Te Aro . Although Viago , Vladislav , and Deacon are all several centuries old , they have retained normal human appearances , but the 8,000 - year - old Petyr resembles Count Orlok and acts more savagely than the younger vampires . Each night , Viago , Vladislav , and Deacon prowl the streets of Wellington searching for people to kill , but they must stay in the flat during the day to avoid sunlight -- which is lethal to vampires -- and as such have not adapted to 21st - century life . Deacon has a human servant ( familiar ) , Jackie , who runs errands for the vampires , but she is frustrated that Deacon will not turn her into a vampire as he has promised . Jackie leads her ex-boyfriend Nick to the vampire 's flat so they can drink his blood ; he escapes before they can kill him , but as he leaves the flat , Petyr attacks him and later turns Nick into a vampire . </P> <P> Two months later the vampires accept Nick into their group and also bond with his human friend Stu , a computer programmer who shows them how to use modern technology such as YouTube ( to watch sunrises ) and cameras ( so they can see themselves ) . Viago in particular is able to find Katherine , his love from many years past , now an old woman in a rest home in Wellington . Despite being able to get his new friends into more popular bars and clubs , Nick struggles to adapt to life as a vampire and carelessly reveals his secret to strangers he meets . One of these strangers , a vampire hunter , breaks into the flat during the day and kills Petyr by exposing him to sunlight . The vampires are furious when they discover Nick has indirectly caused Petyr 's death , and banish him from the flat . </P> <P> Some time later , the vampires receive an invitation to a masquerade ball , where they meet other undead and supernatural beings such as zombies and witches , as well as Vladislav 's ex-girlfriend Pauline , whom he nicknamed `` The Beast '' due to their hard break - up . Nick , Stu and Jackie also attend . To Deacon 's annoyance , Nick has turned Jackie into a vampire . When Pauline realizes that Stu and the camera - crew are human , the other guests try to kill them and Vladislav fights Pauline 's new boyfriend . Stu saves Vladislav by impaling Pauline 's boyfriend on a stick . The vampires manage to escape the ball with Stu and the film - crew , but encounter a group of werewolves who are about to transform in a forest . Stu and one of the cameramen are caught and attacked by the werewolves . Assuming Stu is dead , the vampires grieve for him . </P> <P> A while later , Stu ( having been turned into a werewolf himself ) reappears , and eventually reconciles the werewolves with the vampires , who allow them to stay in their flat with them . Nick also resurfaces and is accepted back into the home . Viago reconnects with Katherine , turning her into a vampire and ensuring they can be together forever . </P> <P> Scenes during the credits reveal that Vladislav has gotten back together with Pauline and Jackie has made her husband her new familiar .

The new film was shot in Wellington in September 2012 , and is Waititi 's first feature since Boy . </P> <P> Stu Rutherford , an IT technician in real life , was initially told he would only have a bit part in the film so he would act more natural when filming his parts . He did not realize his role was so important until the film 's premiere . Stu had a cameo appearance in the original short film . </P> <P> Waititi revealed that there was so much footage filmed that three cuts were made : one focused primarily on jokes , one focused on story , and the final cut , a mix of the two . </P> <P> According to Waititi their favourite vampire films were The Lost Boys , Francis Ford Coppola 's Dracula and Interview with the Vampire . All those movies are heavily quoted or referenced in the film , along with many other horror movie classics . </P> <H2> Music ( edit ) </H2> <P> The score for the film was composed by Plan 9 . The film 's opening credits feature the song `` You 're Dead '' by Norma Tanega , after Clement and Waititi were introduced to the song by film editor Tom Eagles .

It is rated # 68 on the website 's list of Top 100 comedies of all time . The critical consensus states : `` Smarter , fresher , and funnier than a modern vampire movie has any right to be , What We Do in the Shadows is bloody good fun . '' The film also has a score of 76 out of 100 on Metacritic , based on 33 critics , indicating `` generally favorable reviews . </P> <P> Fearnet called the film `` a great vampire comedy '' . Film School Rejects wrote a predominantly positive review , commenting that some of the film 's broader moments fell flat but compared it favorably to similar mockumentaries such as Best in Show . The film was warmly received by UK newspapers , with The Guardian 's film critic Peter Bradshaw describing it as `` the best comedy of the year '' , while The Telegraph 's Tim Robey found it `` desperately funny '' . Film International , in a positive review , commended the film for noting , with a double of Count Orlok locked in the vampires ' basement , that the true vampire film tradition is repressed by the current craze . Variety was more critical , writing that `` Some genre fans who prefer the silly to the satiric may bite , but the anemic pic is n't remotely weird or witty enough for cult immortality .

It is written in the voice of 16 - year - old Katniss Everdeen , who lives in the future , post-apocalyptic nation of Panem in North America . The Capitol , a highly advanced metropolis , exercises political control over the rest of the nation . The Hunger Games is an annual event in which one boy and one girl aged 12 -- 18 from each of the twelve districts surrounding the Capitol are selected by lottery to compete in a televised battle to the death . </P> <P> The book received mostly positive responses from major reviewers and authors . It was praised for its plot and character development . In writing The Hunger Games , Collins drew upon Greek mythology , Roman gladiatorial games , and contemporary reality television for thematic content . The novel won many awards , including the California Young Reader Medal , and was named one of Publishers Weekly 's `` Best Books of the Year '' in 2008 . </P> <P> The Hunger Games was first published in hardcover on September 14 , 2008 , by Scholastic , featuring a cover designed by Tim O'Brien . It has since been released in paperback and also as an audiobook and ebook . After an initial print of 200,000 , the book had sold 800,000 copies by February 2010 . Since its release , The Hunger Games has been translated into 26 languages , and publishing rights have been sold in 38 territories . The novel is the first in The Hunger Games trilogy , followed by Catching Fire ( 2009 ) and Mockingjay ( 2010 ) . A film adaptation , directed by Gary Ross and co-written and co-produced by Collins herself , was released in 2012 . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Background </Li> <Li> 2 Plot </Li> <Li> 3 Themes </Li> <Li> 4 Publication history </Li> <Li> 5 Critical reception </Li> <Li> 6 Film adaptation </Li> <Li> 7 See also </Li> <Li> 8 References </Li> <Li> 9 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Background </H2> <P> Collins has said that the inspiration for The Hunger Games came from channel surfing on television . On one channel she observed people competing on a reality show and on another she saw footage of the invasion of Iraq . The two `` began to blur in this very unsettling way '' and the idea for the book was formed . The Greek myth of Theseus served as a major basis for the story , with Collins describing Katniss as a futuristic Theseus , and Roman gladiatorial games provided the framework . The sense of loss that Collins developed through her father 's service in the Vietnam War was also an influence on the story , with Katniss having lost her father at age 11 , five years before the story begins . Collins stated that the deaths of young characters and other `` dark passages '' were the most difficult parts of the book to write , but that she had accepted that passages such as these were necessary to the story . She considered the moments where Katniss reflects on happier moments in her past to be more enjoyable . </P> <H2> Plot </H2> See also : The Hunger Games universe <P> The Hunger Games takes place in a nation known as Panem , established in North America after the destruction of the continent 's civilization by an unknown apocalyptic event . The nation consists of the wealthy Capitol and twelve surrounding , poorer districts under the Capitol 's dictatorial control . The Capitol exploits the districts for their natural resources and cheap labour . District 12 is in the coal - rich region that was once Appalachia , while the Capitol is in the Rocky Mountains . </P> <P> As punishment for a past rebellion against the Capitol , one boy and one girl between the ages of 12 and 18 from each district are selected by an annual lottery to participate in the Hunger Games , a contest in which the `` tributes '' must fight to the death in an outdoor arena until only one remains . The event is televised . </P> <P> The story is narrated by 16 - year - old Katniss Everdeen , a girl from District 12 who volunteers for the 74th Hunger Games in place of her 12 - year - old sister , Primrose . The male tribute is Peeta Mellark , a former schoolmate of Katniss who once gave her bread from his family 's bakery when her family was starving . </P> <P> Katniss and Peeta are taken to the Capitol . In the few days before the Games start , they are advised and supported by a team consisting of their drunken mentor , Haymitch Abernathy , the sole living District 12 victor of the Hunger Games ; Effie Trinket ; and two fashion stylists and three prep workers who help each tribute look his or her best . Katniss 's stylist , Cinna , is the only person at the Capitol she considers a friend . They are also introduced to the general public , given some training , and evaluated by the Gamemakers . Katniss and , to a lesser extent , Peeta set themselves apart from the other tributes . Rue , the petite 12 - year - old girl tribute from District 11 , takes to following them around . </P> <P> Each tribute is interviewed on television by Caesar Flickerman ; they use the opportunity to try to obtain `` sponsors '' , who can send them potentially life - saving gifts during the Games . In his interview , Peeta reveals his longtime unrequited love for Katniss . At first , Katniss believes this is simply a ploy to gain sponsors and make her let her guard down . ( Much later , she comes to accept he is sincere . ) Haymitch promotes their image as `` star - crossed lovers '' . </P> <P> Nearly half the tributes are killed in the first day of the Games , fighting over the weapons and supplies strewn around their starting point . Katniss nearly dies , ignoring Haymitch 's advice to flee immediately . She uses her well - practiced hunting and survival skills to hide in the woods . A few days later , an artificial fire drives Katniss toward the others . She is spotted and treed by the `` Careers '' ( tributes from the richer , loyal districts who have trained intensively for the Games ) ... and Peeta , who seems to have allied with them . Rue is hiding in a nearby tree . Silently , she directs Katniss 's attention to a trackerjacker nest . Katniss saws through the branch holding the nest , sending it plummeting down . The venom of the flying insects kills one girl and drives the others away . However , Katniss is stung herself and begins hallucinating . Peeta returns , but instead of killing her , he tells her to run away . </P> <P> She and Rue become allies and friends , but Rue is later fatally wounded by another tribute , whom Katniss kills with an arrow . Katniss sings to Rue until she dies and spreads flowers over the body to show her defiance against the Capitol . In an unprecedented move , Rue 's district sends Katniss a gift of bread . </P> <P> Then a rule change is announced , allowing the tributes from the same district to win as a couple . Katniss finds and nurses a seriously wounded Peeta , while continuing to act the part of a girl in love to gain gifts . When the Gamemakers announce that what each contestant needs most will be provided at a feast , Katniss risks her life to obtain medicine for Peeta . She is pinned to the ground by Clove , who gloats about Rue while toying with the helpless Katniss . That talk costs Clove her life , however ; Thresh , the male District 11 tribute , kills her , but spares Katniss - once - for Rue 's sake . The medicine saves Peeta 's life . </P> <P> Finally , Katniss and Peeta are the last two survivors , but the Gamemakers cancel the rule change in an attempt to force them into a dramatic finale , in which one must kill the other . Instead , Katniss defiantly retrieves highly poisonous `` nightlock '' berries and offers half to Peeta . Realizing that Katniss and Peeta intend to commit suicide , the Gamemakers announce that they are the victors of the 74th Hunger Games . </P> <P> Although she receives a hero 's welcome , Katniss is warned by Haymitch that she has now become a target after defying the Capitol so publicly . Afterward , Peeta is heartbroken when he learns that her actions in the arena were part of a calculated ploy to gain sympathy from the audience . However , Katniss is unsure of her own feelings . </P> <H2> Themes </H2> The Hunger Games author Suzanne Collins in 2010 <P> In an interview with Collins , it was noted that the novel `` tackles issues like severe poverty , starvation , oppression , and the effects of war among others . '' The novel deals with the struggle for self - preservation that the people of Panem face in their districts and the Hunger Games in which they must participate . The citizens ' starvation and their need for resources , both in and outside of the arena , create an atmosphere of helplessness that the main characters try to overcome in their fight for survival . Katniss needs to hunt to provide food for her family , resulting in the development of skills that are useful to her in the Games ( such as her proficiency with the bow and arrow ) , and represents her rejection of the Capitol 's rules in the face of life - threatening situations . On the subject of the Games ' parallels with popular culture , Darren Franich of Entertainment Weekly writes that the book `` is an incisive satire of reality television shows '' , and that the character of Cinna `` almost seems like a contestant on a fascist version of Project Runway , using Katniss ' outfits as a vehicle to express potentially dangerous ideas . '' </P> <P> The choices the characters make and the strategies they use are often morally complex . The tributes build a personality they want the audience to see throughout the Games . Library journal Voice of Youth Advocates names the major themes of The Hunger Games as `` government control , ' big brother ' , and personal independence . '' The trilogy 's theme of power and downfall , similar to that of Shakespeare 's Julius Caesar , was pointed out by

An adverse event ( AE ) can therefore be any unfavourable and unintended sign ( including an abnormal laboratory finding ) , symptom , or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal ( investigational ) product , whether or not related to the medicinal ( investigational ) product . </P> <P> AEs in patients participating in clinical trials must be reported to the study sponsor and if required could be reported to local ethics committee . Adverse events categorized as `` serious '' ( results in death , illness requiring hospitalization , events deemed life - threatening , results in persistent or significant disability / incapacity , a congenital anomaly / birth defect or medically important condition ) must be reported to the regulatory authorities immediately , whereas non-serious adverse events are merely documented in the annual summary sent to the regulatory authority . </P> <P> The sponsor collects AE reports from the local researchers , and notifies all participating sites of the AEs at the other sites , as well as both the local investigators ' and the sponsors ' judgment of the seriousness of the AEs . This process allows the sponsor and all the local investigators access to a set of data that might suggest potential problems with the study treatment while the study is still ongoing . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Types of adverse events </Li> <Li> 2 Reporting of adverse events </Li> <Li> 3 Grades of AE </Li> <Li> 4 Database of adverse events </Li> <Li> 5 See also </Li> <Li> 6 References </Li> <Li> 7 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Types of adverse events ( edit ) </H2> <P> All clinical trials have the potential to produce AEs . AEs are classified as serious or non-serious ; expected or unexpected ; and study - related , possibly study - related , or not study - related . </P> <P> For example , while a study that tests the effectiveness of a new blood pressure cuff for a period of 10 minutes might seem innocuous , the potential exists for the patient 's skin to be irritated by the device . Patients in that study might also die during that 10 - minute period . Both skin irritation and sudden death would be considered AEs . In this case , the skin irritation would be classified as not serious , unexpected , and possibly study - related . The death would be classified as serious and unexpected ( unless the patient was already at death 's door ) . The local researcher would use his / her medical judgment to determine whether the death could have been related to the study device . </P> <P> Both the skin irritation and the death are unexpected events , and should alert the researcher to the potential existence of a problem with the device ( for instance , it could have malfunctioned and shocked the patient ) . The researcher would report these AEs to the local Institutional Review Board and to the sponsor , and await direction on whether to stop the study . If the researcher feels there is an imminent danger posed by the device , he or she can use medical discretion to stop patients from participating in the study . </P> <P> An adverse event can also be declared in the normal treatment of a patient which is suspected of being caused by the medication being taken or a medical device used in the treatment of the patient . </P> <P> In Australia , ' Adverse EVENT ' refers generically to medical errors of all kinds , surgical , medical or nursing related . The most recent available official study ( 1995 ) indicated 18,000 deaths per year are a result of hospital care . The Medical Error Action Group is lobbying for legislation to improve the reporting of AEs and through quality control , minimize the needless deaths . </P> <H2> Reporting of adverse events ( edit ) </H2> <P> Main article : Monitoring in clinical trials </P> <P> Researchers participating in a clinical trial must report all adverse events to the drug regulatory authority of the respective country where the drug or device is to be registered ( e.g. Food and Drug Administration ( FDA ) if it is US ) . Serious AEs must be reported immediately ; minor AEs are ' bundled ' by the sponsor and submitted later . </P> <H2> Grades of AE ( edit ) </H2> <P> Clinical trial results often report the number of grade 3 and grade 4 adverse events .

The data consist of voluntary reports since June 1993 , user facility reports since 1991 , distributor reports since 1993 , and manufacturer reports since August 1996 , and is open for public view .

Written by Bronte Woodard and directed by Randal Kleiser in his theatrical feature film debut , the film depicts the lives of two high school seniors : bad boy Danny ( John Travolta ) and good girl Sandy ( Olivia Newton - John ) in the late 1950s . Grease was successful both critically and commercially . Its soundtrack album ended 1978 as the second - best selling album of the year in the United States , behind the soundtrack of the 1977 blockbuster Saturday Night Fever . </P> <P> A sequel , Grease 2 , was released in 1982 , with Maxwell Caulfield and Michelle Pfeiffer in lead roles .

When the summer comes to an end , Sandy , who is going back to Australia , frets that they may never meet again , but Danny tells her that their love is `` only the beginning '' , and they will stay friends . The film moves to the start of the new school year at Rydell High School ( `` Grease '' ) . Danny , a greaser , is a member of the T - Birds , consisting of his best friend Kenickie ( Jeff Conaway ) , Doody ( Barry Pearl ) , Sonny ( Michael Tucci ) , and Putzie ( Kelly Ward ) . The Pink Ladies , a sassy , popular clique of girls , also arrive , consisting of Rizzo ( Stockard Channing ) , Frenchy ( Didi Conn ) , Marty ( Dinah Manoff ) , and Jan ( Jamie Donnelly ) . </P> <P> After her parents unexpectedly decide to move from Australia , Sandy enrolls at Rydell and is befriended by Frenchy , who considers dropping out of high school to become a beautician by going to a beauty school . Unaware of each other 's presence at Rydell , Danny and Sandy tell their curious groups the accounts of events during the pair 's brief romance , without initially mentioning the other 's name . Sandy 's version emphasizes the romance of the affair , and the truth and purity , while Danny 's version is more sexual ( and therefore presumably less honest ) ( `` Summer Nights '' song ) . </P> <P> When Sandy finally tells everyone it was Danny Zuko , Rizzo arranges a surprise reunion for the two at a pep rally , where Sandy is cheering along with high - achiever and resident swot , Patty Simcox ( Susan Buckner ) . At the rally , Sandy catches the eye of a muscly member of the football team ( Lorenzo Lamas ) . When Sandy and Danny are reunited , they are initially elated , but Danny soon slips back into his greaser attitude , which offends Sandy . At the same rally , Kenickie reveals his new car , a dilapidated used jalopy , and announces he has entered it into a `` pinks '' street race at Thunder Road . </P> <P> Frenchy invites Sandy to her house for a sleepover . Sandy vomits at trying her first cigarette , drinking a dessert wine , and getting her ears pierced by Frenchy . While she recovers in the bathroom , Rizzo makes fun of her innocent and virtuous nature ( `` Look At Me , I 'm Sandra Dee '' ) . The T - Birds arrive in Kenickie 's car , and Rizzo departs with Kenickie , leaving the other T - Birds stranded . Sandy laments over her feelings towards Danny , despite his earlier behavior ( `` Hopelessly Devoted to You '' ) . As Kenickie and Rizzo start making love , the condom Kenickie is using breaks . The two are also interrupted by Leo Balmudo ( Dennis C. Stewart ) , leader of the T - Birds ' rival gang , the Scorpions , and his tall and brash girlfriend Cha - Cha ( Annette Charles ) . </P> <P> The next day , the T - Birds are looking over Kenickie 's car , and although they are initially skeptical of its potential , Danny and Kenickie explain the modifications they could add to make it a hot - rodding sex machine ( `` Greased Lightnin ' '' ) . In an attempt to impress Sandy , Danny approaches Coach Calhoun ( Sid Caesar ) in an effort to become a high school athlete . Danny 's pride and lack of experience lead to him picking fights with the jocks when he tries to play basketball , wrestling or baseball , so Calhoun suggests cross-country running , in which Danny excels . Danny 's running proves to impress Sandy , prompting the two to reconcile for a date at the Frosty Palace ; when the other greasers arrive , Danny and Sandy promptly leave in discomfort . Kenickie and a noticeably distressed Rizzo get into an argument and break up , while Putzie and Jan arrange to go to the dance . Left alone , Frenchy -- who dropped out of Rydell to enroll in beauty school , only to quit when she turned her own hair bright pink -- is visited by a guardian angel ( Frankie Avalon ) who advises her to return to Rydell ( `` Beauty School Dropout '' ) . </P> <P> The school dance arrives , broadcast live on television and hosted by DJ Vince Fontaine ( Edd Byrnes ) , who flirts with Marty . Rizzo and Kenickie attempt to spite one another by bringing Leo and Cha - Cha as their dates , while Danny and Sandy arrive together . Danny and Sandy dance well and appear to be on their way to winning the competition , but a drunken Sonny pulls Sandy off the floor partway through . Cha - Cha joins Danny for the rest of the dance , and the two win ( `` Born to Hand Jive '' ) . During the last dance ( `` Blue Moon '' ) , Putzie leads Sonny and Doody in a mooning of the national TV audience , which Principal McGee ( Eve Arden ) vows to put on their permanent records . </P> <P> Danny apologizes to Sandy and tries to make it up to her by taking her to a drive - in theater . She 's unmoved by his pleas for forgiveness until he gives Sandy his ring , which she gleefully accepts . Moments later , Danny tries to aggressively make out with her , causing Sandy to angrily throw his ring at him and depart , leaving Danny distraught ( `` Sandy '' ) . Meanwhile , because she skipped a period , Rizzo quietly admits she may be pregnant to Marty , who in turn tells Sonny , and the rumor spreads like wildfire through the drive - in , reaching Kenickie just as Rizzo is walking past . He attempts to talk to Rizzo about it , telling her he does n't run away from his mistakes . Rizzo tells him it was someone else 's mistake , a response that angers Kenickie . At school the next day , word of Rizzo 's pregnancy fears reaches Patty Simcox , who has spread the gossip to her clique and sneers at Rizzo as they walk by . A visibly hurt Rizzo , who thanks Sandy for her offer of help , sings to herself about how her sins are not as bad as they could be ( `` There Are Worse Things I Could Do '' ) . </P> <P> On the day of the race , Kenickie asks Danny to be on standby in case he decides to back out . Moments before the race is set to begin , Kenickie suffers a concussion when he bends over to pick up a penny for good luck and Putzie opens the car door on Kenickie 's head , and Danny takes the helm of the car . Leo and Danny run a tight race , with Leo attempting to shred Danny 's tires with bladed hubcaps ( in a sequence paying homage to Ben - Hur ) ; Danny eventually wins when Leo skids out . Sandy watches from afar and concludes that she still loves Danny . She decides to change her attitude and image to impress him and asks Frenchy for help ( `` Look At Me , I 'm Sandra Dee ( Reprise ) '' ) . </P> <P> On the last day of school , a sobbing Principal McGee and her equally nostalgic assistant Blanche ( Dody Goodman ) , in a speech over the intercom , tell the students that they could be future leaders . The school hosts a carnival where Sonny and Putzie learn that , because they either never took or failed physical education , they have to take summer school with Coach Calhoun in order to get their diplomas . </P> <P> Kenickie approaches Rizzo and demands to talk to her , only to have her reveal she is not pregnant after all . Overjoyed , they reunite . Danny shows up wearing a Letterman 's sweater and reveals he is now a letterman for the cross-country team , to the T - Birds ' dismay . Danny confesses it is a decision he has made in an effort to clean up his image so that he can be together with Sandy , telling the T - Birds that they too will have to grow up and stop following people all the time . The group is subsequently stunned when Sandy appears seconds later sporting a new hairstyle , dressed in black leather , and smoking a cigarette . In song ,

It specified two net bit rates of 1 or 2 megabits per second ( Mbit / s ) , plus forward error correction code . It specified three alternative physical layer technologies : diffuse infrared operating at 1 Mbit / s ; frequency - hopping spread spectrum operating at 1 Mbit / s or 2 Mbit / s ; and direct - sequence spread spectrum operating at 1 Mbit / s or 2 Mbit / s . The latter two radio technologies used microwave transmission over the Industrial Scientific Medical frequency band at 2.4 GHz . Some earlier WLAN technologies used lower frequencies , such as the U.S. 900 MHz ISM band . </P> <P> Legacy 802.11 with direct - sequence spread spectrum was rapidly supplanted and popularized by 802.11 b . </P> <H3> 802.11 a ( OFDM waveform ) ( edit ) </H3> Main article : IEEE 802.11 a-1999 <P> Originally described as clause 17 of the 1999 specification , the OFDM waveform at 5.8 GHz is now defined in clause 18 of the 2012 specification , and provides protocols that allow transmission and reception of data at rates of 1.5 to 54 Mbit / s . It has seen widespread worldwide implementation , particularly within the corporate workspace . While the original amendment is no longer valid , the term 802.11 a is still used by wireless access point ( cards and routers ) manufacturers to describe interoperability of their systems at 5 GHz , 54 Mbit / s . </P> <P> The 802.11 a standard uses the same data link layer protocol and frame format as the original standard , but an OFDM based air interface ( physical layer ) . It operates in the 5 GHz band with a maximum net data rate of 54 Mbit / s , plus error correction code , which yields realistic net achievable throughput in the mid-20 Mbit / s . </P> <P> Since the 2.4 GHz band is heavily used to the point of being crowded , using the relatively unused 5 GHz band gives 802.11 aa significant advantage . However , this high carrier frequency also brings a disadvantage : the effective overall range of 802.11 a is less than that of 802.11 b / g . In theory , 802.11 a signals are absorbed more readily by walls and other solid objects in their path due to their smaller wavelength , and , as a result , can not penetrate as far as those of 802.11 b . In practice , 802.11 b typically has a higher range at low speeds ( 802.11 b will reduce speed to 5.5 Mbit / s or even 1 Mbit / s at low signal strengths ) . 802.11 a also suffers from interference , but locally there may be fewer signals to interfere with , resulting in less interference and better throughput . </P> <H3> 802.11 b ( edit ) </H3> Main article : IEEE 802.11 b - 1999 <P> The 802.11 b standard has a maximum raw data rate of 11 Mbit / s , and uses the same media access method defined in the original standard . 802.11 b products appeared on the market in early 2000 , since 802.11 b is a direct extension of the modulation technique defined in the original standard . The dramatic increase in throughput of 802.11 b ( compared to the original standard ) along with simultaneous substantial price reductions led to the rapid acceptance of 802.11 b as the definitive wireless LAN technology . </P> <P> Devices using 802.11 b experience interference from other products operating in the 2.4 GHz band . Devices operating in the 2.4 GHz range include microwave ovens , Bluetooth devices , baby monitors , cordless telephones , and some amateur radio equipment . </P> <H3> 802.11 g ( edit ) </H3> Main article : IEEE 802.11 g - 2003 <P> In June 2003 , a third modulation standard was ratified : 802.11 g . This works in the 2.4 GHz band ( like 802.11 b ) , but uses the same OFDM based transmission scheme as 802.11 a . It operates at a maximum physical layer bit rate of 54 Mbit / s exclusive of forward error correction codes , or about 22 Mbit / s average throughput . 802.11 g hardware is fully backward compatible with 802.11 b hardware , and therefore is encumbered with legacy issues that reduce throughput by ~ 21 % when compared to 802.11 a . </P> <P> The then - proposed 802.11 g standard was rapidly adopted in the market starting in January 2003 , well before ratification , due to the desire for higher data rates as well as to reductions in manufacturing costs . By summer 2003 , most dual - band 802.11 a / b products became dual - band / tri-mode , supporting a and b / g in a single mobile adapter card or access point . Details of making b and g work well together occupied much of the lingering technical process ; in an 802.11 g network , however , activity of an 802.11 b participant will reduce the data rate of the overall 802.11 g network . </P> <P> Like 802.11 b , 802.11 g devices suffer interference from other products operating in the 2.4 GHz band , for example wireless keyboards . </P> <H3> 802.11 - 2007 ( edit ) </H3> <P> In 2003 , task group TGma was authorized to `` roll up '' many of the amendments to the 1999 version of the 802.11 standard . REVma or 802.11 ma , as it was called , created a single document that merged 8 amendments ( 802.11 a , b , d , e , g , h , i , j ) with the base standard . Upon approval on March 8 , 2007 , 802.11 REVma was renamed to the then - current base standard IEEE 802.11 - 2007 . </P> <H3> 802.11 n ( edit ) </H3> Main article : IEEE 802.11 n - 2009 <P> 802.11 n is an amendment that improves upon the previous 802.11 standards by adding multiple - input multiple - output antennas ( MIMO ) . 802.11 n operates on both the 2.4 GHz and the 5 GHz bands . Support for 5 GHz bands is optional . It operates at a maximum net data rate from 54 Mbit / s to 600 Mbit / s . The IEEE has approved the amendment , and it was published in October 2009 . Prior to the final ratification , enterprises were already migrating to 802.11 n networks based on the Wi - Fi Alliance 's certification of products conforming to a 2007 draft of the 802.11 n proposal . </P> <H3> 802.11 - 2012 ( edit ) </H3> <P> In May 2007 , task group TGmb was authorized to `` roll up '' many of the amendments to the 2007 version of the 802.11 standard .

Substitute good - wikipedia <H1> Substitute good </H1> Jump to : navigation , search <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> This article includes a list of references , but its sources remain unclear because it has insufficient inline citations . Please help to improve this article by introducing more precise citations .

In consumer theory , substitute goods or substitutes are products that a consumer perceives as similar or comparable , so that having more of one product makes them desire less of the other product . Formally , X and Y are substitutes if , when the price of X rises , the demand for Y rises . </P> <P> Potatoes from different farms are an example : if the price of one farm 's potatoes goes up , then it can be presumed that fewer people will buy potatoes from that farm and source them from another farm instead . </P> <P> There are different degrees of substitutability . For example , a car and a bicycle may substitute to some extent : if the price of motor fuel increases considerably , one may expect that some people will switch to bicycles . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Introduction </Li> <Li> 2 Increase in price </Li> <Li> 3 Different types <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Substitutability </Li> <Li> 3.2 Categorization </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Substitutability of a good </Li> <Li> 5 Monopolistic competition </Li> <Li> 6 Perfect competition </Li> <Li> 7 Types of substitute goods </Li> <Li> 8 See also </Li> <Li> 9 References </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Introduction ( edit ) </H2> <P> In economics , one way that two or more goods can be classified is by examining the relationship of the demand schedules when the price of one good changes . This relationship between demand schedules leads to classification of goods as either substitutes or complements . Substitute goods are goods which , as a result of changed conditions , may replace each other in use ( or consumption ) . A substitute good , in contrast to a complementary good , is a good with a positive cross elasticity of demand . This means a good 's demand is increased when the price of another good is increased ; both in the same direction . Conversely , the demand for a good is decreased when the price of another good is decreased . If goods A and B are substitutes , an increase in the price of A will result in a leftward movement along the demand curve of A and cause the demand curve for B to shift out . A decrease in the price of A will result in a rightward movement along the demand curve of A and cause the demand curve for B to shift in . </P> Substitute good graphical example <P> Examples of substitute goods include margarine and butter , tea and coffee , beer and wine . Substitute goods not only occur on the consumer side of the market but also the producer side . Substitutable producer goods would include : petroleum and natural gas ( used for heating or electricity ) . The degree to which a good has a perfect substitute depends on how specifically the good is defined . Take for example , the demand for Rice Krispies cereal , which is a very narrowly defined good as compared to the demand for cereal generally . The fact that one good is substitutable for another has immediate economic consequences : insofar as one good can be substituted for another , the demands for the two kinds of good will be interrelated by the fact that customers can trade off one good for the other if it becomes advantageous to do so . </P> <H2> Increase in price ( edit ) </H2> <P> An increase in price ( ceteris paribus ) will result in an increase in demand for its substitute goods . If two goods have a high substitutability , the change in demand will be much greater . Thus , economists can predict that a spike in the cost of a particular brand of detergent is likely to result in a large change in demand for other brands , whereas a change in the price of pencils will have a much smaller effect on the demand for other stationery , such as pens on legal documents or pencils on most high - school maths homework . </P> <H2> Different types ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Substitutability ( edit ) </H3> <P> It is important to note that when speaking about substitute goods one is referring to two different kinds of goods ; so the `` substitutability '' of one good for another is always a matter of degree . One good is a perfect substitute for another only if it can be used in exactly the same way . In that case the utility of a combination is an increasing function of the sum of the two amounts , and theoretically , in the case of a price difference , there would be no demand for the more expensive good . </P> <P> In microeconomics , two types of substitutes are being distinguished , gross substitutes and net substitutes . Good X i ( \ displaystyle X_ ( i ) ) is said to be gross substitute of good Y ( \ displaystyle Y ) if </P> <Dl> <Dd> ∂ X i ∂ P Y > 0 ( \ displaystyle ( \ frac ( \ partial X_ ( i ) ) ( \ partial P_ ( Y ) ) ) > 0 ) </Dd> </Dl> <P> Goods X and Y are said to be net substitutes if </P> <Dl> <Dd> ∂ X i ∂ P Y U = c o n s t > 0 ( \ displaystyle \ left. ( \ frac ( \ partial X_ ( i ) ) ( \ partial P_ ( Y ) ) ) \ right _ ( U = const ) > 0 ) </Dd> </Dl> <P> where U = U ( X , Y ) ( \ displaystyle U = U ( X , Y ) ) is a utility function for the two goods . </P> <H3> Categorization ( edit ) </H3> <P> Substitutes differ with respect to their category membership . Within - category substitutes are goods that are members of the same taxonomic category , goods sharing common attributes ( e.g. , chocolate , chairs , station wagons , etc . ) . Cross-category substitutes are goods that are members of different taxonomic categories but can satisfy the same goal . A person who can not have the chocolate that she desires , for example , might instead buy ice cream to satisfy her goal to have a dessert . </P> <H2> Substitutability of a good ( edit ) </H2> Indifference curve for perfect substitutes <P> Goods that are completely substitutable with each other are called perfect substitutes . They may be characterized as goods having a linear utility function or a constant marginal rate of substitution . </P> <P> Writeable compact disks from different manufacturers are often considered to be perfect substitutes . As the price of one brand of CD rises , consumers will be expected to substitute other brands of CD in a one - to - one fashion . This means that the total quantity of CDs purchased would not change . </P> <P> Imperfect substitutes have a lesser level of substitutability , and therefore exhibit variable marginal rates of substitution along the consumer indifference curve . The consumption points on the curve offer the same level of utility as before but the compensation now depends on the starting point of the substitution . An example of such a product is the soft drink . As the price of Coca - Cola rises , consumers could be expected to substitute Pepsi . However , many consumers prefer one brand of soft drink over the other . Consumers who prefer Coke to Pepsi , for example , will not trade between them in a one - to - one fashion . Rather , a consumer would be willing to give relatively large amounts of Pepsi in exchange for relatively small amounts of Coke . </P> <P> People exhibit a strong preference for within - category substitutes to cross-category substitutes . Across a ten sets of different foods , a majority of research participants ( 79.7 % ) believed that a within - category substitute would better satisfy their craving for a food they could not have than a cross-category substitute . Unable to acquire a desired Godiva chocolate , for instance , a majority reported that they would prefer to eat a store - brand chocolate ( a within - category substitute ) than a chocolate - chip granola bar ( a cross-category substitute ) . This preference for within - category substitutes appears , however , to be misguided . Because within - category substitutes are more similar to the missing good , their inferiority to it is more noticeable . This creates a negative contrast effect , and leads within - category substitutes to be less satisfying substitutes than cross-category substitutes . </P> <H2> Monopolistic competition ( edit ) </H2> <P> Many markets for commonly used goods feature products which are perfectly substitutable yet are differently branded and marketed , a condition referred to as monopolistic competition . A good example may be the comparison between store brand and name brand versions of medications - the products may be identical but the packaging is differentiated by the vendors . Since the goods are essentially alike , the only genuine difference between them is the price - their vendors rely primarily on price and branding to effect sales . In those sectors consumer choice is usually driven by discriminate according to lowest price , with higher - priced variants relying on a sense of exclusivity created by slicker branding to maintain competitiveness . </P> <Table> <Tr> <Td> <Ul> <Li> Gasoline / Petrol </Li> <Li> Milk </Li> <Li> Internet connectivity ( ISP services ) </Li> </Ul> </Td> <Td> <Ul> <Li> Electricity </Li> <Li> Telephony </Li> <Li> Airline tickets </Li> </Ul> </Td> </Tr> </Table> <P> Perfect substitutability is significant in the era of deregulation , since there are usually several competing providers in a field ( e.g. electricity suppliers ) each retailing exactly the same product . The result is often aggressive price competition between the retailers . </P> <H2> Perfect competition ( edit ) </H2> <P> One of the requirements for perfect competition is that the products of competing firms should be perfect substitutes . When this condition is not satisfied , the market is characterized by product differentiation . </P> <H2> Types of substitute goods ( edit ) </H2> <P> Unit - demand goods are goods from which the consumer wants only a single item . If the consumer has two items , then his utility is the maximum of the utilities he gains from each of these items . For example , consider a certain consumer that only wants a means of transportation , which may be either a car or a bicycle . His utility from a car is 100 and from a bicycle is 50 . If he has both a car and a bicycle , then he uses only the car so his utility is 100 . Unit - demand goods are always substitutes , since if the price of one good increases , the consumer will tend to want the other good ( Laizer 2016 ) . </P> <H2> See also ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> Competitive equilibrium </Li> <Li> Ersatz , the original German word </Li> <Li> List of economics topics </Li> </Ul> <H2> References ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> ^ Jump up to : Nicholson , Walter ( 1998 ) .

Meanwhile , her twin brother , Sebastian ( James Kirk ) , is supposed to enroll in Illyria , an elite boarding school , but he secretly goes to London with his fledgling band instead . Viola agrees to cover for him and decides to pass herself off as Sebastian , in hopes of joining their boys ' team and beating Cornwall to prove their coach and her cocky ex-boyfriend , Justin ( Robert Hoffman ) , wrong . With the help of her stylist friend , Paul ( Jonathan Sadowski ) , she is transformed into `` Sebastian '' and attends Illyria in his place . </P> <P> While moving in , she meets her roommate , Duke Orsino ( Channing Tatum ) , an attractive soccer player and Illyria 's team captain . During tryouts , Viola fails to impress Coach Dinklage ( Vinnie Jones ) and is assigned to second string , much to her dismay . Her teammates , including Duke , initially dislike `` Sebastian '' due to his awkward and strange behavior . However , with help from Paul once again , they begin to accept him into their social circle . `` Sebastian '' then gets the popular and pretty Olivia ( Laura Ramsey ) as his lab partner , which frustrates Duke , as he has feelings for her . `` Sebastian '' agrees to put in a good word for Duke if he promises to train him to be a better soccer player . Coach Dinklage eventually notices `` Sebastian 's '' effort and improvement , thus promoting him to first string . </P> <P> At the Junior League carnival , where her mother has made her volunteer , Viola works a shift at the kissing booth and shares a kiss with Duke . Duke expresses to `` Sebastian '' that he might move on from Olivia as he is starting to like Viola now . Viola is delighted as she secretly feels the same way . </P> <P> Olivia who now has a crush on `` Sebastian '' , asks Duke out on a date in hopes that it will make `` Sebastian '' jealous . Viola , who is unaware of Olivia 's true intentions , is enraged instead because Duke has now abandoned his interest in Viola . When Viola finds out the truth , she encourages Olivia to tell `` Sebastian '' directly about her feelings . </P> <P> The situation becomes even more complicated when the real Sebastian returns from London a day early , unbeknownst to Viola . As soon as he arrives at Illyria , Olivia confesses her feelings and kisses him . Duke , seeing this , believes his roommate has betrayed him . When `` Sebastian '' returns to their room , the two have an argument and Duke kicks him out . Viola oversleeps and misses the first half of the game , while the real Sebastian is mistaken for `` Sebastian '' and winds up poorly playing his sister 's game instead . At half - time , Viola explains the situation to Sebastian and they switch places again . </P> <P> Duke , still furious at `` Sebastian '' , refuses to cooperate with him on the field . Determined to makes amends with Duke , `` Sebastian '' explains that he is actually Viola . Illyria wins the game when Viola scores a goal , finally humiliating Justin and the rest of the Cornwall boys . </P> <P> Everyone at Illyria celebrates their victory over Cornwall , except for Duke who is hurt about Viola 's deception . Viola introduces Sebastian and Olivia officially , and they begin dating . Viola and Sebastian 's divorced parents also make up , exchanging contact information so as to be better parents towards their children . She invites Duke to her debutante ball , with an invitation delivered by Sebastian , now Duke 's roommate . Still hurt , Duke does n't respond to Viola 's invitation , which devastates her . At the ball , Viola is skeptical that Duke will show up ; she distracts herself by assisting Olivia , who is being escorted by Sebastian to the ball , and is touched when Paul asks to be her date . Her mother shows up with a dress that will suit Viola 's `` no ruffles '' policy , but Viola decides to go for a walk instead . She runs into Duke outside , who tells her that he has feelings for her , but that he does n't want there to be any more deception on her part ; Viola promises to be honest with him . Later , Monique is escorted by Justin , Olivia is escorted by Sebastian , and Viola and Duke enter the stage late , but together , with Viola in her new dress , much to the joy of her mother . Viola and Duke share a kiss before joining the crowd .

figure . During his search , Howard runs his car into the parked police motorcycle of Officer Hummel , who earlier pulled him over and gave him a ticket . After several failed attempts to find the toy in a store , Howard attempts to buy a Turbo - Man from a Mall of America Santa , who is actually the leader of a band of counterfeit toy makers . When he accuses the Santa of undermining the values of Christmas ( having been ripped off and sold a defective toy that falls apart the moment he opened the package ) , Howard ends up in a brawl with the gang . He narrowly escapes when the police raid their warehouse and gets out by posing as an undercover detective using a toy badge . </P> <P> Later , Howard arrives at Mickey 's Diner and uses their phone to call home . As he tried to get a hold of Liz , he unintentionally scolds Jamie on the phone over Turbo - Man . Jamie , in turn , rebukes his father about how he never keeps his promises , and hangs up . Liz overhears the argument and becomes disappointed in her husband . Howard then encounters Myron at the diner . As they sat down and talk , Myron tells Howard about the time when his father was unable to get him a Johnny Seven OMA toy on Christmas . They hear on the KQRS radio station that there is a trivia competition in which the winner will receive a Turbo - Man doll . They rush to the studio , with Howard breaking the door to the recording booth , under the impression that the DJ has a Turbo - Man doll in the studio . After Myron threatens to blow up the studio with a package he claims is a mail bomb , he and Howard find out that whoever wins the competition will get a doll `` eventually . '' The package is revealed to be a music box . The police , led by Officer Hummell , arrive in the studio , and Myron bluffs the police into backing off by threatening them with another `` mail bomb , '' allowing him and Howard to escape . Hummell confidently rips open the package and it explodes , leaving his face covered in soot . </P> <P> After his car is stripped by thieves , Howard is ultimately forced to return home empty - handed . Outside his home , he sees Ted in his house placing the star on his tree . In anger , Howard breaks into Ted 's house and steals the Turbo - Man doll from under his tree . He realizes that he is stealing from a child and changes his mind . He is attacked by Ted 's pet reindeer , accidentally setting one of Ted 's decorations on fire , and kicking it out the window trying to stamp it out , drawing the attention of Ted and Liz . Liz , having had enough , leaves with Jamie , Ted , and his son Johnny to the local Christmas parade ; Howard follows , aiming to make amends . </P> <P> At the parade , Ted makes a pass at Liz and she hits him with a thermos of eggnog . Howard witnesses Ted 's actions from a distance , and on his way to confront him , he runs into Officer Hummel , spilling his hot coffee all over him . Howard runs and Hummell chases him , and Howard enters a room where he is mistaken as the replacement actor for Turbo - Man . As the `` real '' Turbo - Man , he presents the coveted limited - edition Turbo - Man doll to his son . Before he recognizes his father , Jamie is chased by Myron , who has dressed as Turbo - Man 's arch enemy Dementor ( having caught , tied up and gagged the real actor ) . As the crowd assumes this is all part of the show , Howard attempts to rescue his son by utilizing the Turbo - Man suit 's equipment . </P> <P> Howard catches Jamie as he falls from a roof and reveals himself to his son . Officer Hummell gives the doll to Jamie , then asks Howard ( as Turbo - Man ) to join the police force , saluting him . Howard turns and reveals himself and Hummell is dumbfounded , as Howard apologizes for all the trouble . Myron is arrested while ranting about having to explain his failure to get the Turbo - Man toy for his son . Jamie decides to give the doll to him , telling Howard that he has `` the real Turbo - Man at home . '' </P> <P> During the after - credits scene , It is snowing outside . Howard puts the star on the top of his tree and celebrates Christmas with Jamie and Liz . Liz commends Howard for everything he 's done just to make Jamie happy , and then asks Howard what he got her for Christmas . Howard stares in shock at the camera before the fadeout . </P> <H2> Cast ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> Arnold Schwarzenegger -- Howard Langston </Li> <Li> Sinbad -- Myron Larabee </Li> <Li> Phil Hartman -- Ted Maltin </Li> <Li> Rita Wilson -- Liz Langston </Li> <Li> Jake Lloyd -- Jamie Langston </Li> <Li> Robert Conrad -- Officer Alexander Hummell </Li> <Li> Martin Mull -- a KQRS D.J.

Deist -- TV Booster / Puppeteer </Li> <Li> Paul Wight -- Giant Santa </Li> <Li> Chris Parnell -- Toy Store Clerk </Li> <Li> Curtis Armstrong -- Booster </Li> </Ul> <H2> Production ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Development ( edit ) </H3> Arnold Schwarzenegger ( left ) and Sinbad ( right ) starred in the film as the lead characters . <P> The film draws inspiration from the high demand for Christmas toys such as the Cabbage Patch Kids and Mighty Morphin Power Rangers in the late 1980s and early 1990s , which often led to intense searching and occasional violence amongst shoppers . Randy Kornfield wrote the film 's original screenplay after witnessing his in - laws go to a Santa Monica toy store at dawn in order to get his son a Power Ranger . While admitting to missing the clamor for the Cabbage Patch Kids and Power Rangers , producer Chris Columbus experienced a similar situation in 1995 when he attempted to obtain a Buzz Lightyear action figure from the film Toy Story , released that year . As a result , he rewrote Kornfield 's script , which was accepted by 20th Century Fox . Columbus was always `` attracted to the dark side of the happiest holiday of the year '' , so wrote elements of the film as a satire of the commercialization of Christmas . Brian Levant was hired to direct the film . Columbus said Levant `` underst ( ood ) the humor in the material '' and `` was very animated and excited , and he had a vision of what he wanted to do '' . Levant said `` The story that was important to me was between the father and son ... it 's a story about love , and a father 's journey to deliver it in the form of a Turbo Man doll . The fact that I got to design a toy line and do the commercials and make pajamas and comic books was fun for me as a filmmaker . But at its root , the movie 's about something really sweet . It 's about love and building a better family . I think that 's consistent with everything I 've done . '' </P> <P> Arnold Schwarzenegger was quickly cast . He became available in February 1996 after Fox 's remake of Planet of the Apes was held up again ; Columbus also exited that project to work on Jingle All the Way . The film marks Schwarzenegger 's fourth appearance as the lead in a comedy film , following Twins ( 1988 ) , Kindergarten Cop ( 1990 ) and Junior ( 1994 ) . Schwarzenegger was paid a reported $20 million for the role . He enjoyed the film , having experienced last - minute Christmas shopping himself , and was attracted to playing an `` ordinary '' character in a family film . Columbus initially wanted Joe Pesci to play Myron . Comedian Sinbad was chosen instead , partly due to his similar height and size to Schwarzenegger . Sinbad was suggested for the part by Schwarzenegger 's agent , but the producers felt he was unsuited to the role of a villain as it could harm his clean , family - oriented comedy act and reputation , although Sinbad felt the character would generate the audience 's sympathy rather than hate . Furthermore , he missed the audition due to his appearance with First Lady Hillary Clinton and musician Sheryl Crow on the USO tour of Bosnia and Herzegovina , but Columbus waited for him to return to allow him to audition and , although Sinbad felt he had `` messed '' it up , he was given the part . He improvised the majority of his lines in the film ; Schwarzenegger also improvised many of his responses in his conversations with Sinbad 's character . </P> <H3> Filming ( edit ) </H3> <P> Filming took place in Minnesota for five weeks from April 15 , 1996 ; at the time , it was the largest film production to ever take place in the state . Jingle All the Way was set and filmed in the Twin Cities metropolitan area of Minnesota at locations such as Bloomington 's Mall of America , Mickey 's Diner , downtown Minneapolis , Linden Hills , residential areas of Edina and primarily downtown Saint Paul . Unused shops in the Seventh Place Mall area were redecorated to resemble Christmas decorated stores , while the Energy Park Studios were used for much of the filming and the Christmas lights stayed up at Rice Park for use in the film . The Mall of America and the state 's `` semi-wintry weather '' proved attractive for the studio . Although Schwarzenegger stated that the locals were `` well - behaved '' and `` cooperative '' , Levant often found filming `` impossible '' due to the scale and noise of the crowds who came to watch production , especially in the Mall of America , but overall found the locals to be `` respectful '' and `` lovely people . '' Levant spent several months in the area before filming in order to prepare . The film uses artistic license by treating Minneapolis and Saint Paul as one city , as this was logistically easier ; the police are labeled `` Twin Cities Police '' in the film . Additionally , the city 's Holidazzle Parade is renamed the Wintertainment Parade and takes place on 2nd Avenue during the day , rather than Nicollet Mall at night . Levant wanted to film the parade at night but was overruled for practical reasons . </P> <P> The parade was filmed at Universal Studios Hollywood in California on the New York Street set , due to safety concerns . The set was designed to resemble 2nd Avenue ; the parade was shot from above by helicopters and stitched into matte shots of the real - life street . It took three weeks to film , with 1,500 extras being used in the scene , along with three custom designed floats . Other parts of the film to be shot in Los Angeles , California

Dog and Pony Show - Wikipedia <H1> Dog and Pony Show </H1> Jump to : navigation , search For other uses , see Dog and pony show ( disambiguation ) . Advertisement for Prof. Gentry 's Dog and Pony Show , 1900 <P> `` Dog and pony show '' is a colloquial term which has come to mean a highly promoted , often over-staged performance , presentation , or event designed to sway or convince opinion for political , or less often , commercial ends . Typically , the term is used in a pejorative sense to connote disdain , jocular lack of appreciation , or distrust of the message being presented or the efforts undertaken to present it . </P> <H2> Origins ( edit ) </H2> <P> The term was originally used in the United States in the late - 19th and early - 20th centuries to refer to small traveling circuses that toured through small towns and rural areas . The name derives from the common use of performing dogs and ponies as the main attractions of the events . Performances were generally held in open - air arenas , such as race tracks or public spaces in localities that were too small or remote to attract larger , more elaborate performers or performances . The most notorious was `` Prof. Gentry 's Famous Dog & Pony Show , '' started when teenager Henry Gentry and his brothers started touring in 1886 with their act , originally entitled `` Gentry 's Equine and Canine Paradox . '' It started small , but evolved into a full circus show . Other early dog and pony shows included Morris ' Equine and Canine Paradoxes ( 1883 ) and Hurlburt 's Dog and Pony Show ( late 1880s ) . </P> <P> By the latter part of the 20th century , the original meaning of the term had been largely lost . </P> <H2> See also ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> Medicine show </Li> </Ul> <H2> Footnotes ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> Jump up ^ Cabana , Paul ( January 31 , 2001 ) . `` The Dog and Pony Show Must Go On !

During this time , teams will sometimes congregate at an outside location , usually a university , to conduct training camp for at least the first few weeks . This is similar to baseball 's spring training . </P> <P> Training camp is used in several different ways . New players and coaches use it to acclimate themselves to new teammates and systems . For younger players , it serves as a period of evaluation ; for veterans , it is time to round back into form . </P> <P> Training camp is divided into several different components . The first is scrimmages . These are pseudo-games where teams run nearly full games ' worth of plays . Sometimes , two practice sessions are held on the same day . This concept is referred to as two - a-days . Other parts of training camp include drills , meetings with coaches and other players at one 's position , weight training , and pre-season games . </P> <P> The latter half of training camp leads directly into the exhibition season . </P> <P> With NFL training camps starting in late - July , the biggest concern has been dehydration . In 2001 , Minnesota Vikings player Korey Stringer died of a medical condition based from dehydration and heatstroke . The death of Stringer prompted the NFL to change their training policies . At each practice , every team must have the team doctor and trainers on the field ; additionally , an ambulance must be present during practices . </P> <P> With NFL training camps beginning in late July , severe weather can affect practice and exhibition games . In 2002 , a Cleveland Browns exhibition game ended due to lightning near Cleveland Browns Stadium , and severe storms have been known to disrupt training camps . </P> <P> Fans are often able to visit their favorite team 's training camp to catch an early look at the players ; admission to practices is often free or substantially less expensive than a game ticket , making training camp trips a popular option for fans who can not attend many games due to financial or other reasons . NFL teams often sell souvenirs and concessions at camp sites along with offering activities and events to make training camp a more fan - friendly experience . </P> <P> Official NFL training camps should be distinguished from private training camps , often for certain tactics or positions . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Organized team activities </Li> <Li> 2 Training camp sites by team </Li> <Li> 3 Differences with baseball </Li> <Li> 4 See also </Li> <Li> 5 Notes </Li> <Li> 6 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Organized team activities ( edit ) </H2> <P> Recently the NFL has let teams have off - season training sessions , officially called `` organized team activities '' ( OTAs ) . Many teams use the OTAs to help develop players and make them better . These training sessions are in late April and early May . The OTAs are the only practices between the end of the previous season and the start of training camp . Players new to the NFL attend seminars and lectures organized by the NFL from mid-June to mid-July .

However , an increasing number of teams do so in the same facilities at which they practice all year long - 19 teams in 2014 , and 20 in 2015 , up from five in 2000 . Most teams have abandoned remote locations to `` come home '' for training camp , largely for practicality reasons . Many clubs have recently constructed state - of - the - art practice facilities , replete with amenities ( practice fields , indoor practice fields , weightlifting rooms , meeting rooms , film study rooms , cafeteria , medical facilities , IT infrastructure , etc . ) that can not be provided or matched at other distant locations ( colleges , parks , etc . ) In addition , the cost of temporarily relocating and accommodating the entire team organization to another location is substantial . </P> <P> The attitudes about how to run training camp have also evolved - leading more teams to stay home . With Organized Team Activities ( `` OTAs '' ) , mini-camps , and conditioning during the off - season , players remain in top physical shape year - round . The focus of training camp is no longer getting players back in shape , but more of fostering camaraderie . </P> <P> For example , the Lions ' camp was long held at Saginaw Valley State College , the Broncos trained at the University of Northern Colorado , the Patriots at Bryant University in Smithfield , Rhode Island , and the Redskins moved in from Dickinson College , the former site of Carlisle Indian School . Tampa Bay used to train at the University of Tampa , then at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex before moving permanently back to their headquarters . Similarly , after many years on the road , the Jets ( SUNY Cortland ) and the Giants ( Albany ) both recently moved back to team headquarters . </P> <P> There are still a handful of teams that use somewhat distant locations at the fringes of their markets to promote their team . For instance , the Buffalo Bills moved their training camp from SUNY Fredonia to Saint John Fisher College in suburban Rochester ; as a team representing one of the smallest cities in the NFL , the holding of training camp in the nearby city of Rochester allows the Bills to lay claim to a larger portion of upstate New York and thus take advantage of a market closer in size to other teams in the NFL ( similar rationale was used for the Bills ' games in Toronto , Ontario , Canada prior to 2014 ) . The Dallas Cowboys have historically hosted their training camp in locales very distant from their home market , even before they were given the moniker `` America 's Team '' in the late 1970s ; from 2001 to 2015 , the Cowboys held their training camp at the River Ridge Playing Fields in Oxnard , California , a suburb of Los Angeles . The Cowboys ' arrangement with Oxnard ended when the Los Angeles Rams returned to southern California and the Cowboys constructed their own facility closer to Dallas . </P> <P> Another difference between spring training and training camp is that true intra-squad games do not take place ( anymore ) , though informal scrimmages are very common . Split - squad games never happen in the NFL . It is also fairly common to see two teams

The substance can be solid particles , liquid droplets , or gases . A pollutant can be of natural origin or man - made . Pollutants are classified as primary or secondary . Primary pollutants are usually produced from a process , such as ash from a volcanic eruption . Other examples include carbon monoxide gas from motor vehicle exhaust , or the sulfur dioxide released from factories . Secondary pollutants are not emitted directly . Rather , they form in the air when primary pollutants react or interact . Ground level ozone is a prominent example of a secondary pollutant . Some pollutants may be both primary and secondary : they are both emitted directly and formed from other primary pollutants . </P> Before flue - gas desulfurization was installed , the emissions from this power plant in New Mexico contained excessive amounts of sulfur dioxide . Schematic drawing , causes and effects of air pollution : ( 1 ) greenhouse effect , ( 2 ) particulate contamination , ( 3 ) increased UV radiation , ( 4 ) acid rain , ( 5 ) increased ground level ozone concentration , ( 6 ) increased levels of nitrogen oxides . Thermal oxidizers are air pollution abatement options for hazardous air pollutants ( HAPs ) , volatile organic compounds ( VOCs ) , and odorous emissions . <P> Substances emitted into the atmosphere by human activity include : </P> <Ul> <Li> Carbon dioxide ( CO ) - Because of its role as a greenhouse gas it has been described as `` the leading pollutant '' and `` the worst climate pollution '' . Carbon dioxide is a natural component of the atmosphere , essential for plant life and given off by the human respiratory system . This question of terminology has practical effects , for example as determining whether the U.S. Clean Air Act is deemed to regulate CO emissions . CO currently forms about 405 parts per million ( ppm ) of earth 's atmosphere , compared to about 280 ppm in pre-industrial times , and billions of metric tons of CO are emitted annually by burning of fossil fuels . CO increase in earth 's atmosphere has been accelerating . </Li> <Li> Sulfur oxides ( SO ) - particularly sulfur dioxide , a chemical compound with the formula SO . SO is produced by volcanoes and in various industrial processes . Coal and petroleum often contain sulfur compounds , and their combustion generates sulfur dioxide . Further oxidation of SO , usually in the presence of a catalyst such as NO , forms H SO , and thus acid rain. ( 2 ) This is one of the causes for concern over the environmental impact of the use of these fuels as power sources . </Li> <Li> Nitrogen oxides ( NO ) - Nitrogen oxides , particularly nitrogen dioxide , are expelled from high temperature combustion , and are also produced during thunderstorms by electric discharge . They can be seen as a brown haze dome above or a plume downwind of cities . Nitrogen dioxide is a chemical compound with the formula NO . It is one of several nitrogen oxides . One of the most prominent air pollutants , this reddish - brown toxic gas has a characteristic sharp , biting odor . </Li> <Li> Carbon monoxide ( CO ) - CO is a colorless , odorless , toxic yet non-irritating gas . It is a product of combustion of fuel such as natural gas , coal or wood . Vehicular exhaust contributes to the majority of carbon monoxide let into our atmosphere . It creates a smog type formation in the air that has been linked to many lung diseases and disruptions to the natural environment and animals . In 2013 , more than half of the carbon monoxide emitted into our atmosphere was from vehicle traffic and burning one gallon of gas will often emit over 20 pounds of carbon monoxide into the air . </Li> <Li> Volatile organic compounds ( VOC ) - VOCs are a well - known outdoor air pollutant . They are categorized as either methane ( CH ) or non-methane ( NMVOCs ) . Methane is an extremely efficient greenhouse gas which contributes to enhanced global warming . Other hydrocarbon VOCs are also significant greenhouse gases because of their role in creating ozone and prolonging the life of methane in the atmosphere . This effect varies depending on local air quality . The aromatic NMVOCs benzene , toluene and xylene are suspected carcinogens and may lead to leukemia with prolonged exposure . 1 , 3 - butadiene is another dangerous compound often associated with industrial use . </Li> <Li> Particulates , alternatively referred to as particulate matter ( PM ) , atmospheric particulate matter , or fine particles , are tiny particles of solid or liquid suspended in a gas . In contrast , aerosol refers to combined particles and gas . Some particulates occur naturally , originating from volcanoes , dust storms , forest and grassland fires , living vegetation , and sea spray . Human activities , such as the burning of fossil fuels in vehicles , power plants and various industrial processes also generate significant amounts of aerosols . Averaged worldwide , anthropogenic aerosols -- those made by human activities -- currently account for approximately 10 percent of our atmosphere . Increased levels of fine particles in the air are linked to health hazards such as heart disease , altered lung function and lung cancer . Particulates are related to respiratory infections and can be particularly harmful to those already suffering from conditions like asthma . </Li> <Li> Persistent free radicals connected to airborne fine particles are linked to cardiopulmonary disease . </Li> <Li> Toxic metals , such as lead and mercury , especially their compounds . </Li> <Li> Chlorofluorocarbons ( CFCs ) - harmful to the ozone layer ; emitted from products are currently banned from use . These are gases which are released from air conditioners , refrigerators , aerosol sprays , etc . On release into the air , CFCs rise to the stratosphere . Here they come in contact with other gases and damage the ozone layer . This allows harmful ultraviolet rays to reach the earth 's surface . This can lead to skin cancer , eye disease and can even cause damage to plants . </Li> <Li> Ammonia ( NH ) - emitted from agricultural processes . Ammonia is a compound with the formula NH . It is normally encountered as a gas with a characteristic pungent odor . Ammonia contributes significantly to the nutritional needs of terrestrial organisms by serving as a precursor to foodstuffs and fertilizers . Ammonia , either directly or indirectly , is also a building block for the synthesis of many pharmaceuticals . Although in wide use , ammonia is both caustic and hazardous . In the atmosphere , ammonia reacts with oxides of nitrogen and sulfur to form secondary particles . </Li> <Li> Odours -- such as from garbage , sewage , and industrial processes </Li> <Li> Radioactive pollutants - produced by nuclear explosions , nuclear events , war explosives , and natural processes such as the radioactive decay of radon . </Li> </Ul> <P> Secondary pollutants include : </P> <Ul> <Li> Particulates created from gaseous primary pollutants and compounds in photochemical smog . Smog is a kind of air pollution . Classic smog results from large amounts of coal burning in an area caused by a mixture of

New Birth Missionary Baptist church - wikipedia <H1> New Birth Missionary Baptist church </H1> Jump to : navigation , search <P> New Birth Missionary Baptist Church is a megachurch in unincorporated DeKalb County , Georgia , near Lithonia . It has embraced a Pentecostal theology not typically found in African - American Baptist churches . </P> <P> The church was founded in 1939 in Scottdale as Travelers Rest Baptist Church . In 1983 , it moved to Decatur and adopted its current name . Eddie Long took over as pastor in 1987 . At the time , the church had only 300 members . Since his installation , membership has grown to 25,000 . </P> <P> In 2002 , New Birth was chosen to host the live recording of Dorinda Clark - Cole , and was chosen by the family of rapper and R&B superstar Lisa Left Eye Lopes to host the funeral for the rapper , who was killed in a car accident in La Ceiba , Honduras . </P> <P> In 2003 , New Birth planted a branch called `` New Birth Charlotte '' in Charlotte , North Carolina . That church no longer exists , and has since sold its building . Mecklenburg County records show the church defaulted on its payments to Evangelical Christian Credit Union for a $10 million loan . </P> <P> On August 15 , 2004 the church opened a branch called `` New Birth Memphis '' in Memphis , Tennessee . The church has since closed and New Birth Memphis no longer exists . </P> <P> Then in the future years , there were more churches such as New Birth Metro , New Birth Knoxville , New Birth Oakland , and New Birth California . </P> <P> In 2006 , the church was chosen by the family of Martin Luther King , Jr. to host and officiate the funeral for Mrs. Coretta Scott King , wife of the late civil rights pioneer . The event was attended by four Presidents ( George H.W. Bush , Bill Clinton , George W. Bush and Jimmy Carter ) . </P> <P> The church has also been marred by controversy , with four individuals filing separate lawsuits in DeKalb County Superior Court , Georgia alleging that Bishop Long used his pastoral influence to coerce them into a sexual relationship with him when they were teenagers . </P> <P> On January 15 , 2017 , Bishop Eddie Long died from an aggressive form of cancer according to a statement released by the church . The church then announced Stephen A. Davis , pastor of New Birth Birmingham in Birmingham , Alabama would be Long 's successor at New Birth Missionary Baptist Church in Lithonia while remaining pastor of the Birmingham church . </P> <H2> References ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> Jump up ^ `` Home .

As a member of NSYNC , Timberlake appeared in the Super Bowl XXXV ( 2001 ) halftime show , and as a guest artist in the Super Bowl XXXVIII ( 2004 ) , which performance featured a controversial incident where Timberlake accidentally exposed one of Janet Jackson 's breasts on national television , described as a wardrobe malfunction . The Parents Television Council penned an open letter to Timberlake asking to keep the performance `` family - friendly . '' While the organization acknowledged that Timberlake apologized for the 2004 incident , they asked him to stay true to his word , saying `` we are heartened by your response that the events of 2004 are not going to happen in 2018 , '' as the singer stated in a prior interview that `` we are not going to do that again .

We 've kind of felt that Justin deserves , and has for a number of years , to be the main artist for the halftime show because previously he was n't the main artist . It was just about the timing . To be honest , we have discussed Justin for the last number of years for coming and doing halftime , and this year just felt really right to us . He is hands down one of the greatest entertainers currently alive , it was a no - brainer .

Also part of the look is a Prince of Wales - check and camouflage splatter - print suit and matching jacket . As usual for McCartney , these pieces were made from animal - free leather and organic cotton . </P> <P> Timberlake stated in a press conference that there would be no guest musicians in the halftime show and that the event would focus solely on himself and his backing band , the Tennessee Kids . Regarding the Prince tribute , the performance 's creative visual lead , Fireplay 's Nick Whitehouse , told Rolling Stone : </P> <P> Paying tribute to Prince was something JT highlighted as an important moment for this show , and we spent quite a bit of time ensuring this moment would be true to his legacy . Ultimately , Justin decided that the only person who could do Prince justice is Prince . The band held 50 - hours worth of rehearsals in preparation for the show . </P> <P> Prince had previously stated he did not want to be included in new music after death in a 1998 interview , citing The Beatles ' `` Free as a Bird '' as an example of a practice he considered to be `` demonic . '' His family granted permission to use Prince 's likeness on the condition that it not be used in a hologram , and they approved of the final result . Sheila E , a former bandmate of Prince 's who was involved in negotiations over the use of his likeness , stated that `` a bigger company '' ( she declined to specify whether it was Pepsi or the NFL ) had insisted on including the Prince apparition and that the notion was not originally Timberlake 's idea . </P> <P> Despite the lack of an individual guest artist , the more than 300 - member University of Minnesota Marching Band was featured in the show . The band 's drumline , brass , and saxophone sections pre-recorded and performed with Timberlake during his performance of `` Suit & Tie .

The band had previously performed in the halftime show of Super Bowl XXVI . </P> <H2> Critical response ( edit ) </H2> <P> Timberlake 's performance received mixed reviews .

In a similarly positive review , Taylor Weatherby of Billboard said `` there is no denying that Timberlake absolutely rocked his first headlining ( halftime ) '' , further adding `` Timberlake 's halftime show was undeniably mesmerizing .

The show 's name is taken from Kenneth Wolstenholme 's famous 1966 World Cup commentary quotation , `` they think it 's all over ... it is now ! '' and the show used the phrase to sign off each episode . In 2006 the show was axed after 11 years on - air . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Overview <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Rounds </Li> <Li> 1.2 Tie - Breakers </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Episodes </Li> <Li> 3 DVD and video releases <Ul> <Li> 3.1 DVD </Li> <Li> 3.2 Video </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Other releases </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> <Li> 6 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Overview ( edit ) </H2> <P> The show was originally presented by comedian Nick Hancock . Ex-England football team captain Gary Lineker and ex-England cricket team captain David Gower were team captains from 1995 until they announced their retirement from the show in 2003 . They were replaced as team captains by ex-England football goalkeeper David Seaman and ex-England cricketer Phil Tufnell . Former footballer Ian Wright took over from David Seaman in autumn 2004 . From October 2005 , Boris Becker replaced Tufnell and Lee Mack took over from Hancock as host . </P> <P> Occasionally , a team captain was unable to appear on the show due to other commitments so guest captains were drafted in . Six times World Snooker Champion Steve Davis was a regular choice as guest captain , while Matthew Pinsent , Mark Lawrenson , Mick McCarthy , Sam Torrance , Steve Backley , Sharron Davies , Linford Christie and Michael Johnson also appeared in this role . Additionally , Ian Wright was a guest captain before becoming a permanent team captain . </P> <P> Each team also had a regular panellist . For the team which was originally captained by Gary Lineker this was Rory McGrath for the show 's entire run . David Gower was originally teamed up with Lee Hurst . Hurst left the show in 1997 ( although he made a reappearance in 2004 on David Seaman 's team ) and was replaced for the next two series by a rotating line - up of comedians -- Jonathan Ross , Jo Brand , Alan Davies , Julian Clary and Phill Jupitus . Despite regularly admitting to having limited sporting knowledge , Ross became the permanent panellist until leaving the show in 2006 , and was replaced by Sean Lock for the World Cup and summer sports special editions . The third member of each team varied from week to week , and would typically be a notable sportsperson , broadcaster or comedian . </P> <P> The show was originally produced for BBC Radio 5 , where it was hosted by Des Lynam . The devisers , Simon Bullivant and Bill Matthews , started work on a TV version in 1993 but it was two years before it made it to air . Des Lynam did record a pilot in early 1994 but decided not to do the already commissioned series , which was then put on hold . </P> <P> In 1999 and 2001 , as part of the BBC 's Comic Relief broadcasts , one - off special programmes were made called Have I Got Buzzcocks All Over . They combined elements of the show with Have I Got News for You and Never Mind the Buzzcocks , with Angus Deayton as host . </P> <P> Kenneth Wolstenholme was unhappy with the use of the phrase for the title of the show . He wrote in his autobiography that he had contacted the BBC to find out what relevance the title had to his most famous line , uttered 30 years earlier . However , when the show was first commissioned , he did accept a fee to re-record his famous commentary for the opening titles , as the original was unusable . </P> <H3> Rounds ( edit ) </H3> <P> Throughout the series , the rounds varied each week . Examples include : </P> <Ul> <Li> Excuses , where the teams are shown a clip of a sportsperson or a team , and are asked what excuse they gave for a sporting or personal misdemeanour . Examples include Tommy Docherty explaining that Scotland lost 7 -- 0 in the 1954 World Cup to Uruguay because `` they were shattered just standing for the National Anthem '' , and Scottish tennis player Andy Murray claimed that he vomited on the court at the US Open in 2005 because he 'd been drinking an isotonic drink to stop him from cramping , but he drank too much too quickly . On a special edition video - only episode of No Holds Barred , Gary 's team was asked for Tommy Docherty 's excuse for Manchester United 's infamous relegation of 1973 -- 74 , with Lineker 's answer `` He wanted to bring pleasure to millions ? '' . Another edition of the excuses round saw the 1992 Manchester United team blame Rod Stewart for ruining their Old Trafford pitch at a concert a week before the season ended . Even though the gig was on 7 June 1991 , a full year earlier . </Li> <Li> Celebrations , where the teams are shown a clip of a sportsperson celebrating in a fanciful way , and are asked what the celebration is in aid of . Examples include Arsenal striker Thierry Henry celebrating a goal by recreating the Budweiser `` Whassup ? '' advert , and Manchester United midfielder Lee Sharpe celebrating a goal by recreating a pose of his boyhood hero Elvis Presley . One of the more memorable reactions to not winning this round occurred when Matthew Corbett and Sooty were guests and when denied points , Sooty went on to squirt Nick in the face with a water pistol . </Li> <Li> Sporting Bluff , in which the teams are given three statements about a sportsperson and have to guess which one is true . </Li> <Li> What 's Going On ? , where the teams are shown a sporting clip and are asked to decipher what 's going on , quite literally . Examples include former cricket umpire Dickie Bird taking part in a photo opportunity with the Yorkshire players picked for the England cricket team , dressed in a chef 's outfit and cooking them Yorkshire puddings , and serial practical joker ( and Eric Cantona lookalike ) Karl Power joining the Manchester United team for a photo before a Champions League match in 2001 . </Li> <Li> Photo - fit , where the teams are shown a picture of three sportspersons merged into one . The teams then have to guess who they are . Sometimes after the sportspersons are revealed , they are asked for the connection between them for a bonus point . On many occasions , Rory McGrath liked to joke that he recognised the person in the photo as an ex-girlfriend he 'd previously had sexual encounters with . </Li> <Li> Author Author , in which the teams hear an extract from a sporting autobiography and attempt to identify the author . Quotes include former Liverpool F.C. manager Gérard Houllier on why he turns down offers of international coaching and a quote from athlete Roger Black 's autobiography on his admiration of David Gower . </Li> <Li> Sing When You 're Winning , in which the teams must complete the lyrics to a chant performed by football fans or the Barmy Army . A memorable moment from this round saw Chris Eubank complete a poem by the Barnsley F.C. poet , with the line `` I 'm having a laugh '' , when the line was `` We 'll be champions come May '' . </Li> <Li> Handbags , where the teams must work out the reasons for a rift between sportspersons . Examples of rifts include football team Peterborough United F.C. and Victoria Beckham over the rights to use the nickname `` Posh '' , and athlete David Bedford and communications company InfoNXX over the 118 118 runners looking like him . </Li> <Li> Grandstand , in which the teams are shown a bizarre multi-sport event and are asked to come up with events played in them . These include the Eskimo Olympics , the Naked Olympics and the Tough Guy Sports . </Li> <Li> The Treble , where the teams are shown three sportspersons and three items , and have to link each sportsperson to an item . </Li> <Li> The Beckham Challenge , where the teams are asked an on - the - buzzer question about David Beckham and his family . The first team to get the answer right gets further bonus questions , similar to University Challenge . This was later changed to having separate questions for each team . Variants to this round include Sven - Mania ( with questions about then - England manager Sven - Göran Eriksson ) , Rooney - Mania ( with questions about Wayne Rooney ) and Gaffer - Mania ( with questions about football managers in general ) . </Li> <Li> Electronic Pencil , where the teams are shown a brief sporting clip , which is then paused , or a doctored photo of a sportsperson with items removed . The teams use the electronic pencil to predict the direction of the athlete or the ball , or what the missing items were . The round was dropped after series 2 but revived for the 100th show in 2001 . </Li> <Li> Injury Board , in which the teams pick a number between 1 and 12 . Behind each number is a sports person and another person or item . The teams try to work out how the latter injured the former . Examples include Newbury rugby club and some Vaseline ( to which guest Julian Clary suggested `` maybe there was sand in it , '' ) and Dennis Wise and a toilet seat . This round was also a parody of A Question of Sport , another BBC TV quiz show . </Li> <Li> Feel The Sportsman , one of the most popular rounds of the show , in which the regular panellists

Meg Ryan ) moves to the ( fictional ) South American country of Tecala because her engineer husband , Peter Bowman ( David Morse ) , has been hired to help build a new dam for oil company Quad Carbon . Though Alice is unhappy at this most recent move , she agrees to stay . While driving one morning through the city , Peter is caught in traffic and then ambushed and abducted by guerrilla rebels of the Liberation Army of Tecala ( ELT ) . Believing that Peter is working on Quad Carbon 's oil pipeline , ELT soldiers lead him through the jungle . </P> <P> Terry Thorne ( Russell Crowe ) , a former member of the British Special Air Service , arrives in Tecala fresh from a successful hostage rescue in Chechnya . As an expert negotiator in kidnapping - and - ransom cases , he is assigned by his company , Luthan Risk , to bargain for Peter 's safe return . Unfortunately , it is learned that Quad Carbon is on the verge of bankruptcy and takeover , and therefore has no insurance coverage for kidnapping , so they can not afford Thorne 's services . Despite Alice 's pleas to stay , Thorne leaves the country . Alice is then assigned a corrupt local hostage negotiator , who immediately urges her to pay the ELT 's first ransom demand : a $50,000 `` good faith '' payment . Not knowing what to do , Alice agrees , but the transaction is stopped by Thorne who ( due to his conscience ) has returned to help . He is aided by Dino ( David Caruso ) , a competing negotiator and ex -- Green Beret . Over the next few months , Thorne uses a radio to speak with an ELT contact , and the two argue over terms for Peter 's release -- including a ransom payment that Alice can afford . Thorne and Alice bond through the ordeal , forming an implicit attraction . They eventually negotiate a sum of $650,000 . </P> <P> Meanwhile , Peter has become a prisoner at the ELT 's jungle base camp . There , he befriends another hostage named Kessler ( Gottfried John ) -- a missionary and former member of the French Foreign Legion -- who has lived in the camp for nineteen months . The two concoct an escape plan , but during their attempt they are quickly tracked by the ELT . Kessler falls into a river after being shot in the shoulder and manages to escape , but Peter steps on a trap and is recaptured . Kessler is found and hospitalized . In the hospital he claims he heard a gunshot at the time Peter was recaptured , and thus believes he is dead . Thorne can not believe this , but his ELT contact refuses to respond to his calls . Luckily , one of Alice 's young maids recognized his voice over the radio and reveals he is a government official . Thorne goes to a parade ceremony and confronts the contact ; he confirms that Peter is indeed alive , but because of the ELT 's escalating war with the government and Peter 's knowledge of the terrain , the ELT will no longer negotiate . </P> <P> At Thorne 's urging Alice convinces the Tecala government that the ELT is mounting an attack on the pipeline being built through their territory . This forces the government army to mobilize , thus forcing a bulk of the camp 's ELT troops to mobilize for a counter-attack . Thorne , Dino , and several associates are then inserted by helicopter and raid the weakened ELT base . They overcome the camp 's soldiers , free Peter and another hostage , and then fly back to the city , where Alice happily reunites with her husband . Thorne and Alice share a final intimate moment before the latter departs with Peter on an immediate flight to the U.S. </P> <H2> Cast ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> Meg Ryan as Alice Bowman </Li> <Li> Russell Crowe as Terry Thorne </Li> <Li> David Morse as Peter Bowman </Li> <Li> Pamela Reed as Janis Goodman </Li> <Li> David Caruso as Dino </Li> <Li> Anthony Heald as Ted Fellner </Li> <Li> Michael Byrne as Lord Luthan </Li> <Li> Stanley Anderson as Jerry </Li> <Li> Gottfried John as Eric Kessler </Li> <Li> Alun Armstrong as Wyatt </Li> <Li> Michael Kitchen as Ian Havery </Li> <Li> Margo Martindale as Ivy </Li> <Li> Mario Ernesto Sánchez as Arturo Fernandez </Li> <Li> Pietro Sibille as Juaco </Li> <Li> Vicky Hernández as Maria </Li> <Li> Norma Martínez as Norma </Li> <Li> Carlos Blanchard as Carlos </Li> <Li> Rowena King as Pamela </Li> <Li> Diego Trujillo as Eliodoro </Li> </Ul> <H2> Background ( edit ) </H2> <P> Although the producers wanted to film in Colombia , due to the dangers that guerrillas posed in that country at the time , the movie was mainly filmed in Ecuador . The large piles of money used to pay for the rescue were sucres , the Ecuadorian national currency at the time of the filming . Tecala 's geographic and urban appearance and its political characteristics were based loosely on a mix of several Andean countries . </P> <P> The ELT 's characterization appears to be primarily based on the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia ( FARC ) . Coincidentally , Colombia 's second largest guerrilla group is the Ejército de Liberación Nacional or ELN . </P> <P> Control Risks , a risk consulting firm , was hired to provide security for the cast and crew while filming on location . The firm also served as inspiration for kidnap and ransom consulting seen in the film . </P> <P> The movie end credit and post-script says : `` Inspired by the VANITY FAIR article ' Adventures in the Ransom Trade ' by William Prochnau and by the book Long March to Freedom by Thomas Hargrove . </P> <H3> Tecala ( edit ) </H3> <P> The Republic of Tecala , where most of Proof of Life is set , is a fictional South American country . Tecala has long been the scene of an internal conflict between its government forces and the Liberation Army of Tecala ( ELT ) . The ELT was originally a Marxist guerrilla group supported by the Soviet Union , but after the Soviet Union 's dissolution in 1991 , the ELT 's primary source of funding fell through , and they began kidnapping people for ransom to fund their operations . A map seen in the film is that of Ecuador . The country 's capital Quito was chosen along with the eastern jungle and the nearby city of Baños de Agua Santa in the Ecuadorian Andes . </P> <H2> Release ( edit ) </H2> <P> The film opened in wide release in the United States on December 8 , 2000 for 2,705 screens . The opening weekend 's gross was $10,207,869 and the total receipts for the U.S. run were $32,598,931 . The international box - office receipts were $30,162,074 , for total receipts of $62,761,005 . The film was in wide release in the U.S. for twelve weeks ( eighty days ) . In its widest release , the film was featured in 2,705 theaters across the country . </P> <H2> Reception ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Critical response ( edit ) </H3> <P> Stephen Holden , film critic for The New York Times , did not think the film worked well and opined that the actors did not connect . He wrote , `` ( the film displays ) a gaping lack of emotional connection among the characters in a romantic triangle that feels conspicuously unromantic ... what ultimately sinks this stylish but heartless film is a flat lead performance by the eternally snippy Meg Ryan ... Ms. Ryan expresses no inner conflict , nor much of anything else beyond a mounting tension . Even when her wide blue eyes well up with tears , the pain she conveys is more the frustration of a little girl who has misplaced her doll than any deep , empathetic suffering . '' </P> <P> Critic David Ansen gave the film a mixed review , writing , </P> <P> Taylor Hackford 's thriller Proof of Life leaves a lot to be desired , but it 's got its hands on a fascinating subject ... To be fair , Tony Gilroy 's screenplay keeps the romance on the back burner ... Thorne is the most compelling aspect of Proof of Life , thanks to Crowe 's quiet , hard - bitten charisma . It 's a part Bogart once would have played -- the amoral tough guy who rises to the moral occasion -- and Crowe gives it just the right note of gravel - voiced masculinity . But neither Crowe , Ryan nor the topical subject keeps Proof of Life from feeling recycled . For all the up - to - the - minute research , the movie still gives off the musty scent of Hollywood contrivance . </P> <P> Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes gives the film an approval rating of 40 % based on 115 reviews ; the average rating is 5.3 / 10 . The consensus is : `` Despite its promising premise and superstar cast , Proof of Life is just a routine thriller that does n't offer anything new . '' </P> <H3> Awards ( edit ) </H3> <P> The film was nominated for four Blockbuster Entertainment Awards ; Favorite Actor -- Suspense , Favorite Actress - Suspense , Favorite Supporting Actress -- Suspense and Favorite Supporting Actress -- Suspense .

Monkey 's uncle - Wikipedia <H1> Monkey 's uncle </H1> Jump to : navigation , search <P> The term monkey 's uncle , most notably seen in the idiom `` ( well ) I 'll be a monkey 's uncle '' , is used to express complete surprise , amazement or disbelief . It can also be used to acknowledge the impossibility of a situation , in the same way that `` pigs might fly '' is used . An example is if one says : `` I may agree that if two plus two equals five , then I am a monkey 's uncle '' . `` I 'll be a monkey 's uncle '' has been said to date from after 1925 , the date of the widely publicized Scopes Trial in the United States , where the term first appears . The Oxford English Dictionary 's earliest example is the phrase If that 's a joke I 'm a monkey 's uncle , from an Ohio newspaper on 8 February 1925 . It was originally a sarcastic remark made by creationists . The notion `` that ( people ) were descended from apes was considered blasphemous ... by Darwin 's contemporaries '' , and it was for this reason that the sarcastic phrase came into use . </P> <P> Michael Quinion notes that the phrase Monkey 's uncle occurs in a parody of Longfellow 's The Song of Hiawatha which was reprinted in James Parton 's The Humorous Poetry of the English Language , published in 1881 , and observes This may be just an accident of invention , but the date fits . Monkey 's Uncle is the name of a song by the Selecter on their album Reel to Real criticizing religious dogma that contradicts scientific evidence . </P> <H2> References ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> Jump up ^ `` I 'll be a monkey 's uncle ! - Idioms '' .

It runs 2,369 miles ( 3,813 km ) , from Fort Kent , Maine , at the Canada -- US border , south to Key West , Florida , making it the longest north -- south road in the United States . US 1 is generally paralleled by Interstate 95 ( I - 95 ) , though the former is significantly farther west ( inland ) between Jacksonville , Florida , and Petersburg , Virginia . The highway connects most of the major cities of the East Coast -- including Miami , Jacksonville , Richmond , Washington , D.C. , Baltimore , Philadelphia , New York City and Boston , passing from the Southeastern United States to New England . </P> <P> While US 1 is generally the easternmost of the main north -- south U.S. Highways , parts of US 9 , US 13 , US 15 , US 17 , US 21 , occupy corridors closer to the ocean . In some cases , substantial portions of these routes are east of US 1 ; US 13 terminates only a couple miles west of US 1 after crossing it in Falls Township , PA , with over 99.5 % of it running east of US 1 . When the road system was laid out in the 1920s , US 1 was mostly assigned to the existing Atlantic Highway , which followed the Fall Line between the Piedmont and the Atlantic Coastal Plain north of Augusta , Georgia . At the time , the highways farther east were of lower quality and did not serve the major population centers . Construction of the Interstate Highway system gradually changed the use and character of US 1 , and I - 95 became the major north -- south East Coast highway by the late 1960s . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Route description <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Florida </Li> <Li> 1.2 Georgia </Li> <Li> 1.3 The Carolinas </Li> <Li> 1.4 Mid-Atlantic Region </Li> <Li> 1.5 New England </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 History </Li> <Li> 3 Major intersections </Li> <Li> 4 Auxiliary routes </Li> <Li> 5 Related state highways </Li> <Li> 6 In popular culture </Li> <Li> 7 See also </Li> <Li> 8 References </Li> <Li> 9 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Route description ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Florida ( edit ) </H3> Mile zero in Key West Main article : U.S. Route 1 in Florida <P> US 1 travels along the east coast of Florida , beginning at 490 Whitehead St. in Key West and passing through Miami , Hollywood , Fort Lauderdale , Boca Raton , West Palm Beach , Jupiter , Fort Pierce , Melbourne , Cocoa , Titusville , Daytona Beach , Palm Coast , St. Augustine , and Jacksonville . The southernmost piece through the chain islands of the Florida Keys , about 100 miles ( 160 km ) long , is the two - lane Overseas Highway , originally built in the late 1930s after railroad tycoon Henry Flagler 's Florida East Coast Railway 's Overseas Railroad , which was built 1905 - 1912 on stone pillars was ruined by the Labor Day Hurricane of 1935 . The rest of US 1 in Florida is generally a four - lane divided highway , despite the existence of the newer I - 95 not far away . Famous vacation scenic route Florida State Road A1A is a continuous oceanfront alternate to US 1 that runs along the beaches of the Atlantic Ocean , cut only by assorted unbridged inlets and the Kennedy Space Center at Cape Canaveral . North of Jacksonville , US 1 turns northwest towards Augusta , Georgia ; US 17 becomes the coastal route into Virginia , where US 13 takes over .

The Georgia Department of Transportation has an ongoing plan to widen all of US 1 to four lanes with bypasses which is more than 50 percent complete . </P> <H3> The carolinas ( edit ) </H3> I - 40 east approaching the Raleigh Beltline , which includes US 1 . <Dl> <Dd> Main articles : U.S. Route 1 in North and South Carolina </Dd> </Dl> <P> In South Carolina , US 1 generally serves mostly rural areas as it falls west of I - 95 while the coastal areas are served by routes east of it . Starting in South Carolina , US 1 is paralleled by Interstate 20 along the Fall Line through Aiken , Lexington , and Columbia to Camden and Lugoff . US 1 functions as a local two - lane road with occasional boulevard stretches . After Camden , US 1 continues northeast away from any Interstate towards Bethune , Patrick , McBee and Cheraw with no bypasses or four - lane sections except around Cheraw through the US 52 and SC 9 multiplexes . After SC 9 , it continues northward into North Carolina as a two - lane highway . SCDOT has no plans to widen or bypass any US 1 alignments northeast of Camden to the North Carolina line . </P> <P> Between the South Carolina line and the US 74 bypass , US 1 is a two - lane road but sees a considerable amount of truck and tourist traffic of people cutting through from the US 74 / US 220 and I - 73 / I - 74 corridor attempting to reach points south and east . US 1 goes through downtown Rockingham , with a bypass in the future plans . North of the NC 177 junction , it becomes four lanes or greater , becoming a super-street with limited access and then becoming a limited access freeway . US 1 becomes a major artery for the state as it moves north of Rockingham . After Richmond County , it goes into Moore County with two expressway bypasses in Southern Pines , Vass and Cameron . US 1 continues with the Jefferson Davis Highway label through Lee County and Sanford , and on to Cary and Raleigh . US 1 runs concurrently with US 64 through most of Cary , where the freeway recently underwent a major renovation and improvements that added lanes in both directions . North of Raleigh , US 1 ( known as Capital Boulevard in northern Wake County ) crosses Interstate 540 and then again becomes a four - lane divided arterial to Interstate 85 near Henderson . The North Carolina Department of Transportation has begun a corridor study for this section of US 1 . Moreover , NCDOT is planning to finish four - laning US 1 in Richmond County past NC 177 with a Rockingham bypass to the east . There are no plans from SCDOT to widen US 1 from the state line . From Henderson into Virginia , US 1 runs parallel with I - 85 as a two - lane local road until the state line , where Virginia hosts a continuous third center lane for alternate passing towards US Highway 58 before South Hill . </P> <H3> Mid-Atlantic region ( edit ) </H3> The 14th Street Bridge , Washington , D.C. <Dl> <Dd> Main articles : U.S. Route 1 in Virginia , District of Columbia , Maryland , Pennsylvania , New Jersey , and New York </Dd> </Dl> <P> In the Mid-Atlantic region , US 1 generally serves some of the most populated areas of the east coast . Through Virginia , US 1 is paralleled by Interstates : the remainder of Interstate 85 to Petersburg , Interstate 95 through Richmond and Fredericksburg to Alexandria , and Interstate 395 into Arlington . Within Virginia , US 1 is called Jefferson Davis Highway by state law , although most of the Fairfax County portion , except Lorton , is better known as the Richmond Highway . US 1 crosses the Potomac River with I - 395 on the 14th Street Bridges , and splits to follow mainly 14th Street and Rhode Island Avenue through the District of Columbia . US 1 is at the minimum a 3 lane ( with alternate passing ) from the N.C. line to Petersburg with occasional four lane divided sections . North of Petersburg is a four lane undivided roadway at the minimum to the D.C. line . The route of US 1 from Petersburg to the state line is parallel with the Fall Line . From Petersburg onwards it is parallel with Interstate 95 . After exiting the District into Maryland , US 1 follows the Baltimore - Washington Boulevard , the first of several modern highways built along the Baltimore - Washington corridor ; I - 95 is the newest , after the Baltimore - Washington Parkway . US 1 runs through the University of Maryland at College Park campus in College Park , Maryland . The route bypasses downtown Baltimore on North Avenue and exits the city to the northeast on Belair Road , gradually leaving the I - 95 corridor , which passes through Wilmington , Delaware , for a straighter path towards Philadelphia . Around and beyond Bel Air , US 1 is a two - lane road , crossing the Susquehanna River over the top of the Conowingo Dam before entering Pennsylvania . ( Routed further north , U.S. 1 bypasses the state of Delaware , unlike I - 95 . ) </P> Roosevelt

However , the average number of active gas drill rigs has fallen each year for four straight years from 2010 ( 942 rigs ) to 2014 ( 332 rigs ) , a drop of 65 percent , even while gas production rose each year for the same period , from 21.3 trillion cubic feet ( TCF ) in 2010 to 25.7 TCF in 2014 , an increase of 21 percent . Remaining proved reserves increased overall , from 301 TCF in 2013 to 338 TCF in 2013 ( the last year for which reserves are available ) , an increase of 11 percent . The rise in gas production despite fewer rigs drilling has been explained by the greater efficiency in drilling , and the greater productivity of shale gas wells . </P> <H2> Natural gas production ( edit ) </H2> <P> Top producing gas fields in the United States , 2013 </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th> Rank </Th> <Th> Field </Th> <Th> State </Th> <Th> Discovery Year </Th> <Th> Billion cubic ft. / Year </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> Marcellus natural gas trend </Td> <Td> Pennsylvania and West Virginia </Td> <Td> 2008 </Td> <Td> 2,836 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> Newark East Barnett Shale </Td> <Td> Texas </Td> <Td> 1981 </Td> <Td> 1,952 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> Haynesville Shale </Td> <Td> Louisiana and Texas </Td> <Td> 2008 </Td> <Td> 1,426 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> Eagle Ford Formation </Td> <Td> Texas </Td> <Td> 1962 </Td> <Td> 1,112 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 5 </Td> <Td> Fayetteville Shale </Td> <Td> Arkansas </Td> <Td> 2005 </Td> <Td> 1,025 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 6 </Td> <Td> San Juan Basin </Td> <Td> New Mexico and Colorado </Td> <Td> 1927 </Td> <Td> 1,025 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 7 </Td> <Td> Carthage </Td> <Td> Texas </Td> <Td> 1936 </Td> <Td> 653 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 8 </Td> <Td> Pinedale Gas Field </Td> <Td> Wyoming </Td> <Td> 1955 </Td> <Td> 568 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 9 </Td> <Td> Sprayberry </Td> <Td> Texas </Td> <Td> 1949 </Td> <Td> 307 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 10 </Td> <Td> Wattenberg Gas Field </Td> <Td> Colorado </Td> <Td> 1970 </Td> <Td> 305 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th colspan="5"> Annual production 2013 .

Sometimes gas containing 5.8 million BTU is defined as a `` barrel of oil equivalent for energy calculation purposes . When describing reserves or production , however , the oil and gas industry more commonly uses the rounded number of 6 MCF of gas ( or 6 million BTU in the natural gas ) as equal to one barrel of oil equivalent . </P> <P> Since the price of natural gas was deregulated in the 1990s , its price has tended to parallel that of oil , with oil usually at a premium on a BTU basis .

Pipeline gas specifications vary from line to line , but generally the gas must contain no appreciable hydrogen sulfide ( which is toxic ) , less than a few percent carbon dioxide ( carbon dioxide reacts with water to form carbonic acid , which is corrosive to iron and steel pipe ) , and a British thermal unit ( BTU ) content of 900 or more .

Hydrocarbon compounds from hexane ( each molecule of which is a simple chain containing six carbon atoms , hence called C6 ) and heavier generally separate out ( `` condense '' ) from the gas at the wellhead ; this mixture is called condensate , and is usually reported as oil production , and sold to refineries the same as oil . The C2 through C5 hydrocarbons ( ethane , propane , butane , and pentane ) are known as natural gas liquids ( NGLs ) , and remain in gaseous form until they are extracted at a gas processing plant . The division between the two classes is not perfect : some hexane , and heptane remain in the gas to be separated out as NGLs , while some butane and pentane , may separate out with the condensate . </P>

It lies within the London Borough of Tower Hamlets , separated from the eastern edge of the square mile of the City of London by the open space known as Tower Hill . It was founded towards the end of 1066 as part of the Norman Conquest of England . The White Tower , which gives the entire castle its name , was built by William the Conqueror in 1078 and was a resented symbol of oppression , inflicted upon London by the new ruling elite . The castle was used as a prison from 1100 ( Ranulf Flambard ) until 1952 ( Kray twins ) , although that was not its primary purpose . A grand palace early in its history , it served as a royal residence . As a whole , the Tower is a complex of several buildings set within two concentric rings of defensive walls and a moat . There were several phases of expansion , mainly under Kings Richard I , Henry III , and Edward I in the 12th and 13th centuries . The general layout established by the late 13th century remains despite later activity on the site . </P> <P> The Tower of London has played a prominent role in English history . It was besieged several times , and controlling it has been important to controlling the country . The Tower has served variously as an armoury , a treasury , a menagerie , the home of the Royal Mint , a public record office , and the home of the Crown Jewels of England . From the early 14th century until the reign of Charles II , a procession would be led from the Tower to Westminster Abbey on the coronation of a monarch . In the absence of the monarch , the Constable of the Tower is in charge of the castle . This was a powerful and trusted position in the medieval period . In the late 15th century , the castle was the prison of the Princes in the Tower . Under the Tudors , the Tower became used less as a royal residence , and despite attempts to refortify and repair the castle , its defences lagged behind developments to deal with artillery . </P> <P> The peak period of the castle 's use as a prison was the 16th and 17th centuries , when many figures who had fallen into disgrace , such as Elizabeth I before she became queen , Sir Walter Raleigh , and Elizabeth Throckmorton , were held within its walls . This use has led to the phrase `` sent to the Tower '' . Despite its enduring reputation as a place of torture and death , popularised by 16th - century religious propagandists and 19th - century writers , only seven people were executed within the Tower before the World Wars of the 20th century . Executions were more commonly held on the notorious Tower Hill to the north of the castle , with 112 occurring there over a 400 - year period . In the latter half of the 19th century , institutions such as the Royal Mint moved out of the castle to other locations , leaving many buildings empty . Anthony Salvin and John Taylor took the opportunity to restore the Tower to what was felt to be its medieval appearance , clearing out many of the vacant post-medieval structures . In the First and Second World Wars , the Tower was again used as a prison and witnessed the executions of 12 men for espionage . After the Second World War , damage caused during the Blitz was repaired , and the castle reopened to the public . Today , the Tower of London is one of the country 's most popular tourist attractions . Under the ceremonial charge of the Constable of the Tower , it is cared for by the charity Historic Royal Palaces and is protected as a World Heritage Site . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Architecture <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Layout </Li> <Li> 1.2 White Tower </Li> <Li> 1.3 Innermost ward </Li> <Li> 1.4 Inner Ward </Li> <Li> 1.5 Outer Ward </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Foundation and early history </Li> <Li> 3 Expansion </Li> <Li> 4 Later Medieval Period </Li> <Li> 5 Changing use </Li> <Li> 6 Restoration and tourism </Li> <Li> 7 Crown Jewels </Li> <Li> 8 Royal Menagerie </Li> <Li> 9 Ghosts </Li> <Li> 10 See also </Li> <Li> 11 References </Li> <Li> 12 Further reading </Li> <Li> 13 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Architecture ( edit ) </H2> Audio description of the Tower of London by Mike Gatting <H3> Layout ( edit ) </H3> Plan of the Tower of London <P> The Tower was orientated with its strongest and most impressive defences overlooking Saxon London , which archaeologist Alan Vince suggests was deliberate . It would have visually dominated the surrounding area and stood out to traffic on the River Thames . The castle is made up of three `` wards '' , or enclosures . The innermost ward contains the White Tower and is the earliest phase of the castle . Encircling it to the north , east , and west is the inner ward , built during the reign of Richard I ( 1189 -- 1199 ) . Finally , there is the outer ward which encompasses the castle and was built under Edward I . Although there were several phases of expansion after William the Conqueror founded the Tower of London , the general layout has remained the same since Edward I completed his rebuild in 1285 . The castle encloses an area of almost 12 acres ( 4.9 hectares ) with a further 6 acres ( 2.4 ha ) around the Tower of London constituting the Tower Liberties -- land under the direct influence of the castle and cleared for military reasons . The precursor of the Liberties was laid out in the 13th century when Henry III ordered that a strip of land adjacent to the castle be kept clear . Despite popular fiction , the Tower of London never had a permanent torture chamber , although the basement of the White Tower housed a rack in later periods . Tower Wharf was built on the bank of the Thames under Edward I and was expanded to its current size during the reign of Richard II ( 1377 -- 1399 ) . </P> <H3> White Tower ( edit ) </H3> Main article : White Tower ( Tower of London ) <P> The White Tower is a keep ( also known as a donjon ) , which was often the strongest structure in a medieval castle , and contained lodgings suitable for the lord -- in this case , the king or his representative . According to military historian Allen Brown , `` The great tower ( White Tower ) was also , by virtue of its strength , majesty and lordly accommodation , the donjon par excellence '' . As one of the largest keeps in the Christian world , the White Tower has been described as `` the most complete eleventh - century palace in Europe '' . </P> The original entrance to the White Tower was at first - floor level <P> The White Tower , not including its projecting corner towers , measures 36 by 32 metres ( 118 by 105 ft ) at the base , and is 27 m ( 90 ft ) high at the southern battlements . The structure was originally three storeys high , comprising a basement floor , an entrance level , and an upper floor . The entrance , as is usual in Norman keeps , was above ground , in this case on the south face , and accessed via a wooden staircase which could be removed in the event of an attack . It was probably during Henry II 's reign ( 1154 -- 1189 ) that a forebuilding was added to the south side of the tower to provide extra defences to the entrance , but it has not survived . Each floor was divided into three chambers , the largest in the west , a smaller room in the north - east , and the chapel taking up the entrance and upper floors of the south - east . At the western corners of the building are square towers , while to the north - east a round tower houses a spiral staircase . At the south - east corner there is a larger semi-circular projection which accommodates the apse of the chapel . As the building was intended to be a comfortable residence as well as a stronghold , latrines were built into the walls , and four fireplaces provided warmth . </P> <P> The main building material is Kentish rag - stone , although some local mudstone was also used . Caen stone was imported from northern France to provide details in the Tower 's facing , although little of the original material survives as it was replaced with Portland stone in the 17th and 18th centuries . As most of the Tower 's windows were enlarged in the 18th century , only two original -- albeit restored -- examples remain , in the south wall at the gallery level . </P> <P> The tower was terraced into the side of a mound , so the northern side of the basement is partially below ground level . As was typical of most keeps , the bottom floor was an undercroft used for storage . One of the rooms contained a well . Although the layout has remained the same since the tower 's construction , the interior of the basement dates mostly from the 18th century when the floor was lowered and the pre-existing timber vaults were replaced with brick counterparts . The basement is lit through small slits . </P> St John 's Chapel , inside the White Tower <P> The entrance floor was probably intended

C4 carbon fixation - wikipedia <H1> C carbon fixation </H1> Jump to : navigation , search Kranz anatomy allows C carbon fixation . A : Mesophyll Cell B : Chloroplast C : Vascular Tissue D: Bundle Sheath Cell E : Stomate F : Vascular Tissue : provides continuous source of water 1 ) Carbon is fixed to produce oxaloacetate by PEP carboxylase . 2 ) The four carbon molecule then exits the cell and enters the chloroplasts of bundle sheath cells . 3 ) It is then broken down releasing carbon dioxide and producing pyruvate . Carbon dioxide combines with ribulose bisphosphate and proceeds to the Calvin Cycle . 4 ) Pyruvate re-enters the mesophyll cell . It then reacts with ATP to produce the beginning compound of the C4 cycle . <P> C carbon fixation or the Hatch - Slack pathway is a photosynthetic process in some plants . It is the first step in extracting carbon from carbon dioxide to be able to use it in sugar and other biomolecules . It is one of three known processes for carbon fixation . The C in one of the names refers to the 4 - carbon molecule that is the first product of this type of carbon fixation . </P> <P> C fixation is an elaboration of the more common C carbon fixation and is believed to have evolved more recently . C overcomes the tendency of the enzyme RuBisCO to wastefully fix oxygen rather than carbon dioxide in the process of photorespiration . This is achieved by ensuring that RuBisCO works in an environment where there is a lot of carbon dioxide and very little oxygen . CO is shuttled via malate or aspartate from mesophyll cells to bundle - sheath cells . In these bundle - sheath cells CO is released by decarboxylation of the malate . C4 plants use PEP carboxylase to capture more CO in the mesophyll cells . PEP Carboxylase ( 3 carbons ) binds to CO to make oxaloacetic acid ( OAA ) . The OAA then makes malate ( 4 carbons ) . Malate enters bundle sheath cells and releases the CO . These additional steps , however , require more energy in the form of ATP . Using this extra energy , C plants are able to more efficiently fix carbon in drought , high temperatures , and limitations of nitrogen or CO . Since the more common C pathway does not require this extra energy , it is more efficient in the other conditions . </P> <P> The naming Hatch - Slack pathway is in honor of Marshall Davidson Hatch and C.R. Slack , who elucidated it in Australia in 1966 . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 C pathway </Li> <Li> 2 C Kranz leaf anatomy </Li> <Li> 3 The evolution and advantages of the C pathway </Li> <Li> 4 Plants that use C carbon fixation <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Converting C plants to C </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 See also </Li> <Li> 6 References </Li> <Li> 7 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> C pathway ( edit ) </H2> NADP - ME type C pathway NAD - ME type C pathway PEPCK type C pathway <P> The first experiments indicating that some plants do not use C carbon fixation but instead produce malate and aspartate in the first step of carbon fixation were done in the 1950s and early 1960s by Hugo P. Kortschak and Yuri Karpilov . The C pathway was elucidated by Marshall Davidson Hatch and C.R. Slack , in Australia , in 1966 ; it is sometimes called the Hatch - Slack pathway . </P> <P> In C plants , the first step in the light - independent reactions of photosynthesis involves the fixation of CO by the enzyme RuBisCO into 3 - phosphoglycerate . However , due to the dual carboxylase and oxygenase activity of RuBisCo , some part of the substrate is oxidized rather than carboxylated , resulting in loss of substrate and consumption of energy , in what is known as photorespiration . In order to bypass the photorespiration pathway , C plants have developed a mechanism to efficiently deliver CO to the RuBisCO enzyme . They utilize their specific leaf anatomy where chloroplasts exist not only in the mesophyll cells in the outer part of their leaves but in the bundle sheath cells as well . Instead of direct fixation to RuBisCO in the Calvin cycle , CO is incorporated into a 4 - carbon organic acid , which has the ability to regenerate CO in the chloroplasts of the bundle sheath cells . Bundle sheath cells can then utilize this CO to generate carbohydrates by the conventional C pathway . </P> <P> The first step in the pathway is the conversion of pyruvate to phosphoenolpyruvate ( PEP ) , by the enzyme pyruvate orthophosphate dikinase . This reaction requires inorganic phosphate and ATP plus pyruvate , producing phosphoenolpyruvate , AMP , and inorganic pyrophosphate ( PPi ) . The next step is the fixation of CO into oxaloacetate by the enzyme PEP carboxylase . Both of these steps occur in the mesophyll cells : </P> <Dl> <Dd> pyruvate + P + ATP → PEP + AMP + PP </Dd> <Dd> PEP + CO → oxaloacetate </Dd> </Dl> <P> PEP carboxylase has a lower Km for HCO − 3 -- and , hence , higher affinity -- than RuBisCO . Furthermore , O is a very poor substrate for this enzyme . Thus , at relatively low concentrations of CO , most CO will be fixed by this pathway . </P> <P> The product is usually converted to malate , a simple organic compound , which is transported to the bundle - sheath cells surrounding a nearby vein . Here , it is decarboxylated to produce CO and pyruvate . The CO now enters the Calvin cycle and the pyruvate is transported back to the mesophyll cell . </P> <P> Since every CO molecule has to be fixed twice , first by 4 - carbon organic acid and second by RuBisCO , the C pathway uses more energy than the C pathway . The C pathway requires 18 molecules of ATP for the synthesis of one molecule of glucose , whereas the C pathway requires 30 molecules of ATP . This energy debt is more than paid for by avoiding losing more than half of photosynthetic carbon in photorespiration as occurs in some tropical plants , making it an adaptive mechanism for minimizing the loss . </P> <P> There are several variants of this pathway : </P> <Ol> <Li> The 4 - carbon acid transported from mesophyll cells may be malate , as above , or aspartate . </Li> <Li> The 3 - carbon acid transported back from bundle - sheath cells may be pyruvate , as above , or alanine . </Li> <Li> The enzyme that catalyses decarboxylation in bundle - sheath cells differs . In maize and sugarcane , the enzyme is NADP - malic enzyme ; in millet , it is NAD - malic enzyme ; and , in Panicum maximum , it is PEP carboxykinase . </Li> </Ol> <H2> C kranz leaf anatomy ( edit ) </H2> Cross section of a maize leaf , a C plant . Kranz anatomy ( rings of cells ) shown . Drawing based on microscopic images courtesy of Cambridge University Plant Sciences Department . <P> The C plants often possess a characteristic leaf anatomy called kranz anatomy , from the German word for wreath . Their vascular bundles are surrounded by two rings of cells ; the inner ring , called bundle sheath cells , contains starch - rich chloroplasts lacking grana , which differ from those in mesophyll cells present as the outer ring . Hence , the chloroplasts are called dimorphic . The primary function of kranz anatomy is to provide a site in which CO can be concentrated around RuBisCO , thereby avoiding photorespiration . In order to maintain a significantly higher CO concentration in the bundle sheath compared to the mesophyll , the boundary layer of the kranz has a low conductance to CO , a property that may be enhanced by the presence of suberin . </P> <P> Although most C plants exhibit kranz anatomy , there are , however , a few species that operate a limited C cycle without any distinct bundle sheath tissue . Suaeda aralocaspica , Bienertia cycloptera , Bienertia sinuspersici and Bienertia kavirense ( all chenopods ) are terrestrial plants that inhabit dry , salty depressions in the deserts of the Middle East . These plants have been shown to operate single - cell C CO-concentrating mechanisms , which are unique among the known C mechanisms . Although the cytology of both genera differs slightly , the basic principle is that fluid - filled vacuoles are employed to divide the cell into two separate areas . Carboxylation enzymes in the cytosol can , therefore , be kept separate from decarboxylase enzymes and RuBisCO in the chloroplasts , and a diffusive barrier can be established between the chloroplasts ( which contain RuBisCO ) and the cytosol . This enables a bundle - sheath - type area and a mesophyll - type area to be established within a single cell . Although this does allow a limited C cycle to operate , it is relatively inefficient , with the occurrence of much leakage of CO from around RuBisCO . There is also evidence for the exhibiting of inducible C photosynthesis by non-kranz aquatic macrophyte Hydrilla verticillata under warm conditions , although the mechanism by which CO leakage from around RuBisCO is minimised is currently uncertain . </P> <H2> The evolution and advantages of the C pathway ( edit ) </H2> Further information : Evolutionary history of plants § Evolution of photosynthetic pathways <P> C plants have a competitive advantage over plants possessing the more common C carbon fixation pathway under conditions of drought , high temperatures , and nitrogen or CO limitation . When grown in the same environment , at 30 ° C , C grasses lose approximately 833 molecules of water per CO molecule that is fixed , whereas C grasses lose only 277 . This increased water use efficiency of C grasses means that soil moisture is conserved , allowing them to grow for longer in arid environments . </P> <P> C carbon fixation has evolved on up to 61 independent occasions in 19 different families of plants , making it a prime example of convergent evolution . This convergence may have been facilitated by the fact that many potential evolutionary pathways to a C phenotype exist , many of which involve initial evolutionary steps not directly related to photosynthesis. C plants arose around 35 million years ago during the Oligocene ( precisely when is difficult to determine ) and did not become ecologically significant until around 6 to 7 million years ago , in the Miocene Period. C metabolism originated when grasses migrated from the shady forest undercanopy to more open environments , where the high sunlight gave it an advantage over the C pathway . Drought was not necessary for its innovation ; rather , the increased resistance to water stress was a by - product of the pathway and allowed C plants to more readily colonise arid environments . </P> <P> Today , C plants represent about 5 % of Earth 's plant biomass and 3 % of its known plant species . Despite this scarcity , they account for about 23 % of terrestrial carbon fixation . Increasing the proportion of C plants on earth could assist biosequestration of CO and represent an important climate change avoidance strategy . Present - day C plants are concentrated in the tropics and subtropics ( below latitudes of 45 ° ) where the high air temperature contributes to higher possible levels of oxygenase activity by RuBisCO , which increases rates of photorespiration in C plants . </P> <H2> Plants that use C carbon fixation ( edit ) </H2> Maize ( or corn ) is a common C4 plant . <P> About 8,100 plant species use C carbon fixation , which

It is the second - largest confectionery brand in the world after Wrigley 's . Cadbury is internationally headquartered in Uxbridge , West London , and operates in more than 50 countries worldwide . It is famous for its Dairy Milk chocolate , the Creme Egg and Roses selection box , and many other confectionery products . One of the best - known British brands , in 2013 The Daily Telegraph named Cadbury among Britain 's most successful exports . </P> <P> Cadbury was established in Birmingham , England in 1824 , by John Cadbury who sold tea , coffee and drinking chocolate . Cadbury developed the business with his brother Benjamin , followed by his sons Richard and George . George developed the Bournville estate , a model village designed to give the company 's workers improved living conditions . Dairy Milk chocolate , introduced in 1905 , used a higher proportion of milk within the recipe compared with rival products . By 1914 , the chocolate was the company 's best - selling product . Cadbury , alongside Rowntree 's and Fry , were the big three British confectionery manufacturers throughout much of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries . </P> <P> Cadbury was granted its first Royal Warrant from Queen Victoria in 1854 . It has been a holder of a Royal Warrant from Elizabeth II since 1955 . Cadbury merged with J.S. Fry & Sons in 1919 , and Schweppes in 1969 . Cadbury was a constant constituent of the FTSE 100 on the London Stock Exchange from the index 's 1984 inception until the company was bought by Kraft Foods in 2010 . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History <Ul> <Li> 1.1 1800 -- 1900 : Early history </Li> <Li> 1.2 1900 -- 1969 </Li> <Li> 1.3 Schweppes merger ( 1969 ) <Ul> <Li> 1.3. 1 Schweppes demerger </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 1.4 2007 -- 2010 </Li> <Li> 1.5 Acquisition by Kraft Foods </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Operations <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Head office </Li> <Li> 2.2 Production sites <Ul> <Li> 2.2. 1 Bournville </Li> </Ul> </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Markets <Ul> <Li> 3.1 United Kingdom </Li> <Li> 3.2 Ireland </Li> <Li> 3.3 United States </Li> <Li> 3.4 Australia </Li> <Li> 3.5 New Zealand </Li> <Li> 3.6 Canada </Li> <Li> 3.7 India </Li> <Li> 3.8 Malta </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Advertising </Li> <Li> 5 Executive pay </Li> <Li> 6 Accounting </Li> <Li> 7 Products </Li> <Li> 8 Health and safety controversies <Ul> <Li> 8.1 2006 salmonella scare </Li> <Li> 8.2 2007 recalls </Li> <Li> 8.3 2008 melamine contamination in China </Li> <Li> 8.4 2009 hydrogenation </Li> <Li> 8.5 2014 pork traces in Malaysia </Li> <Li> 8.6 2017 `` Easter '' controversy </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 9 See also </Li> <Li> 10 References </Li> <Li> 11 Further reading </Li> <Li> 12 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> Main article : History of Cadbury <H3> 1800 -- 1900 : early History ( edit ) </H3> An 1885 advertisement for Cadbury 's Cocoa <P> In 1824 , John Cadbury , a Quaker , began selling tea , coffee and drinking chocolate in Bull Street in Birmingham , England . From 1831 he moved into the production of a variety of cocoa and drinking chocolates , made in a factory in Bridge Street and sold mainly to the wealthy because of the high cost of production . In 1847 , John Cadbury became a partner with his brother Benjamin and the company became known as `` Cadbury Brothers '' . In 1847 , Cadbury 's competitor Fry 's of Bristol produced the first chocolate bar ( which would be mass produced as Fry 's Chocolate Cream in 1866 ) . Cadbury introduced his brand of the chocolate bar in 1849 , and that same year , Cadbury and Fry 's chocolate bars were displayed publicly at a trade fair in Bingley Hall , Birmingham . The Cadbury brothers opened an office in London , and in 1854 they received the Royal Warrant as manufacturers of chocolate and cocoa to Queen Victoria . The company went into decline in the late 1850s . </P> <P> John Cadbury 's sons Richard and George took over the business in 1861 . At the time of the takeover , the business was in rapid decline : the number of employees had reduced from 20 to 11 , and the company was losing money . By 1866 , Cadbury was profitable again . The brothers had turned around the business by moving the focus from tea and coffee to chocolate , and by increasing the quality of their products . </P> Cadbury Factory , Bournville is located on the south side of Birmingham , England <P> The firm 's first major breakthrough occurred in 1866 when Richard and George introduced an improved cocoa into Britain . A new cocoa press developed in the Netherlands removed some of the unpalatable cocoa butter from the cocoa bean . The firm began exporting its products in the 1850s . In 1861 , the company created Fancy Boxes -- a decorated box of chocolates -- and in 1868 they were sold in boxes in the shape of a heart for Valentine 's Day . Boxes of filled chocolates quickly became associated with the holiday . </P> <P> In 1878 , the brothers decided to build new premises in countryside four miles from Birmingham . The move to the countryside was unprecedented in business . Better transport access for milk that was inward shipped by canal , and cocoa that was brought in by rail from London , Southampton and Liverpool docks was taken into consideration . With the development of the Birmingham West Suburban Railway along the path of the Worcester and Birmingham Canal , they acquired the Bournbrook estate , comprising 14.5 acres ( 5.9 ha ) of countryside 5 miles ( 8.0 km ) south of the outskirts of Birmingham . Located next to the Stirchley Street railway station , which itself was opposite the canal , they renamed the estate Bournville and opened the Bournville factory the following year . </P> <P> In 1893 , George Cadbury bought 120 acres ( 49 ha ) of land close to the works and planned , at his own expense , a model village which would ' alleviate the evils of modern more cramped living conditions ' . By 1900 the estate included 314 cottages and houses set on 330 acres ( 130 ha ) of land . As the Cadbury family were Quakers there were no pubs in the estate . </P> <P> In 1897 , following the lead of Swiss companies , Cadbury introduced its own line of milk chocolate bars . In 1899 Cadbury became a private limited company . </P> <H3> 1900 -- 1969 ( edit ) </H3> The packing room at Bournville , circa 1903 <P> In 1905 , Cadbury launched its Dairy Milk bar , a production of exceptional quality with a higher proportion of milk than previous chocolate bars . Developed by George Cadbury Jr , it was the first time a British company had been able to mass - produce milk chocolate . From the beginning , it had the distinctive purple wrapper . It was a great sales success , and became the company 's best selling product by 1914 . The stronger Bournville Cocoa line was introduced in 1906 . Cadbury Dairy Milk and Bournville Cocoa were to provide the basis for the company 's rapid pre-war expansion . In 1910 , Cadbury sales overtook those of Fry for the first time . </P> <P> Cadbury 's Milk Tray was first produced in 1915 and continued in production throughout the remainder of the First World War . More than 2,000 of Cadbury 's male employees joined the British Armed Forces , and to support the British war effort , Cadbury provided chocolate , books and clothing to the troops . George Cadbury handed over two company - owned buildings for use as hospitals -- `` The Beeches '' and `` Fircroft '' , and the management of both hospitals earned the War Office 's highest award . Factory girls , dubbed ' The Cadbury Angels ' , volunteered to do the laundry of injured soldiers recovering in the hospitals . After the war , the Bournville factory was redeveloped and mass production began in earnest . In 1918 , Cadbury opened their first overseas factory in Hobart , Tasmania . </P> Cadbury Wharf , Knighton , Staffordshire . It was operated by Cadbury between 1911 and 1961 to process locally collected milk and produce `` chocolate crumb '' which was transported to Cadbury 's in Bournville . <P> In 1919 , Cadbury merged with J.S. Fry & Sons , another leading British chocolate manufacturer , resulting in the integration of well - known brands such as Fry 's Chocolate Cream and Fry 's Turkish Delight . In 1921 , the many small Fry 's factories around Bristol were closed down , and production was consolidated at a new Somerdale Factory , outside Bristol . </P> <P> Cadbury soon expanded its product range with Flake ( 1920 ) , Creme eggs ( 1923 ) , Fruit and Nut ( 1928 ) , and Crunchie ( 1929 ) ( originally under the Fry 's label ) . By 1930 Cadbury had become the 24th - largest British manufacturing company as measured by estimated market value of capital . Cadbury took direct control of the under - performing Fry in 1935 . Dairy Milk Whole Nut arrived in 1933 , and Roses were introduced in 1938 . </P> <P> Chocolate ceased to be a luxury product and became affordable to the working classes for the first time . By the mid-1930s , Cadbury estimated that 90 percent of the British population could afford to buy chocolate . By 1936 , Dairy Milk accounted for 60 percent of the UK milk chocolate market . </P> <P> During World War II , parts of the Bournville factory were turned over to war work , producing milling machines and seats for fighter aircraft . Workers ploughed football fields to plant crops . As chocolate was regarded as an essential food , it was placed under government supervision for the entire war . The wartime rationing of chocolate ended in 1950 , and normal production resumed . Cadbury subsequently invested in new factories and had an increasing demand for their products . In 1952 the Moreton factory was built . </P> <P> Cadbury has been a holder of a Royal Warrant from Queen Elizabeth II since 1955 . In 1967 Cadbury acquired an Australian confectioner , MacRobertson 's , beating a rival bid from Mars . As a result of the takeover , Cadbury built a 60 percent market share in the Australian market . </P> <H3> Schweppes merger ( 1969 ) ( edit ) </H3> The Cadbury Schweppes logo used until the demerger in 2008 <P> Cadbury merged with drinks company Schweppes to form Cadbury Schweppes in 1969

The plane crash - landed in the Indian Ocean near Grande Comore , Comoros Islands , due to fuel exhaustion ; 125 of the 175 passengers and crew on board died , along with the hijackers . The official accident report stated that four of the survivors were uninjured . </P> <P> The incident is one of the few documented water landing attempts of a widebody airliner with survivors . Until the 11 September 2001 attacks , it was the deadliest hijacking involving a single aircraft , and the second deadliest hijacking after the 1990 Guangzhou Baiyun airport collisions . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Aircraft </Li> <Li> 2 Description <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Hijacking </Li> <Li> 2.2 Crash landing </Li> <Li> 2.3 Medical treatment and repatriation of bodies </Li> <Li> 2.4 Investigation </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Fate of the passengers and crew <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Notable passengers </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Maps </Li> <Li> 5 Aftermath </Li> <Li> 6 In the media </Li> <Li> 7 See also </Li> <Li> 8 References </Li> <Li> 9 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Aircraft ( edit ) </H2> <P> The aircraft involved in the accident was a Boeing 767 - 260ER , registration ET - AIZ , c / n 23916 , that had its maiden flight on 17 September 1987 . Powered by two Pratt & Whitney JT9D - 7R4E engines , it was delivered new to Ethiopian Airlines on 22 October 1987 . Except for a short period between May 1991 ( 1991 - 05 ) and February 1992 ( 1992 - 02 ) when it was leased to Air Tanzania , the airplane spent its life in the Ethiopian Airlines fleet . It was 9 years old at the time the incident took place . </P> <P> Captain Leul Abate ( 42 ) , an experienced pilot with over 11,500 total flight hours , was the pilot - in - command . The first officer on the flight was Yonas Mekuria ( 34 ) . He had flown more than 6,500 hours . </P> <P> The flight had been delayed in order to allow a connecting flight to feed passengers . The aircraft took off at 08 : 09 UTC . </P> <H2> Description ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Hijacking ( edit ) </H3> <P> At about 08 : 29 UTC , when the aircraft , referred to as Zulu by Ethiopian Airlines ' pilots , after the last letter of its registration , was still flying over Ethiopian airspace , three Ethiopian men charged the cockpit and hijacked the aircraft after taking an axe and a fire extinguisher from the cockpit . According to a special Airdisaster.com report , `` One of the men ran down the aisle toward the cockpit , shouting statements that could not be understood , and his two accomplices followed soon after . '' The Airdisaster report described the men as `` young ( mid-twenties ) , inexperienced , psychologically fragile , and intoxicated . '' Ethiopian state - operated radio later identified the hijackers as two unemployed high - school graduates and a nurse ; their names were Alemayehu Bekeli Belayneh , Mathias Solomon Belay , and Sultan Ali Hussein ( they did not say who had which description ) . </P> <P> The men threatened to blow the plane up in flight if the pilots did not obey their demands . The hijackers said that there were eleven of them when in fact there were only three . After assaulting and forcing first officer Yonas Mekuria into the cabin , they made an announcement . Over the intercom , they declared in Amharic , French and English that if anyone tried to interfere , they had a bomb and they would use it to blow up the plane . Authorities later determined that the purported bomb was actually a covered bottle of liquor . </P> <P> The hijackers demanded the plane be flown to Australia . Leul tried to explain they had only taken on the fuel needed for the scheduled flight and thus could not even make a quarter of the journey , but the hijackers did not believe him . One of them took a copy of the airline 's in - flight magazine Selamta to the cockpit and turned to the fleet page then pointed out to a photo of the 767 stating that the maximum flying time of the airplane was 11 hours . </P> <P> Instead of flying towards Australia , the captain followed the African coastline southward . The hijackers noticed that land was still visible and forced the pilot to steer east . Leul secretly headed for the Comoro Islands , which lie midway between Madagascar and the African mainland . </P> <H3> Crash landing ( edit ) </H3> Sequence showing the ditching of the aircraft ; this was recorded by a South African tourist . <P> The plane was nearly out of fuel as it approached the island group , but the hijackers continued to ignore the captain 's warnings . Out of options , Leul began to circle the area , hoping to land the plane at the Comoros ' main airport . This forced Leul to land at more than 175 knots ( 324 km / h ; 201 mph ) . </P> <P> Leul tried to make an emergency landing at Prince Said Ibrahim International Airport on Grande Comore , but a fight with the hijackers at the last minute caused him to lose his visual point of reference , leaving him unable to locate the airport . While still fighting with the hijackers , he tried to ditch the aircraft in shallow waters 500 yards ( 457 m ) off Le Galawa Beach Hotel , near Mitsamiouli at the northern end of Grande Comore island . Leul attempted to land parallel with the waves instead of against the waves in an effort to smooth the landing . Seconds prior to contacting the water the aircraft was banked left some ten degrees ; the left engine and wingtip struck the water first . The engine acted as a scoop and struck a coral reef , slowing that side of the aircraft quickly and causing the Boeing 767 to suddenly tilt left . The rest of the aircraft then entered the water unevenly , causing it to break apart . Except for the rear part of the airframe , the broken portions of the fuselage sank rapidly . Many passengers died because they inflated their life jackets in the cabin , causing them to be trapped inside by the rising water . </P> <P> Island residents and tourists , including a group of scuba divers and some French doctors on vacation , came to the aid of crash survivors . A tourist recorded a video of ET - AIZ crashing . She said that she had begun taping because she initially believed that the 767 formed a part of an air show for tourists . </P> <H3> Medical treatment and repatriation of bodies ( edit ) </H3> <P> Survivors were initially taken to Mitsamiouli Hospital . The crash site was less than 2 kilometres ( 1.2 mi ) away from this hospital . The passengers were transferred to El - Maarouf Regional Hospital Centre ( Centre Hospitalier National El Maarouf ) in Moroni the same day . The two French who survived and 19 injured were transported to Réunion . In Réunion , one of the injured died , making the death toll 125 . Excluding those transported to Réunion , survivors were transported to Nairobi and South Africa . </P> <P> At the time there was no mortuary in Moroni , so cold rooms were used to store 124 bodies . </P> <H3> Investigation ( edit ) </H3> <P> On 3 December 1996 the Direction Generale de l'Aviation Civile des Comores of the Comoros agreed to delegate the investigation of ET961 to the Ethiopian Civil Aviation Authority ( ECAA ) . The Air Accidents Investigation Branch ( AAIB ) analysed the flight recorders . </P> <H2> Fate of the passengers and crew ( edit ) </H2> <P> The final accident report includes a listing of surviving and deceased passengers and crew . All 12 crew members were Ethiopians . Six survived , including the pilot and copilot . </P> <P> The passengers originated from 36 countries . </P> <P> The passenger manifest ( including hijackers but not crew members ) follows : </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th> Nationality </Th> <Th> Number on board </Th> <Th> Survivors </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Austria </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Belgium </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Benin </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Cameroon </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Canada </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Chad </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Republic of the Congo </Td> <Td> 5 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Ivory Coast </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Djibouti </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Egypt </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Ethiopia </Td> <Td> 19 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> France </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Germany </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Hungary </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> India </Td> <Td> 20 </Td> <Td> 6 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Israel </Td> <Td> 8 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Italy </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Japan </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Kenya </Td> <Td> 14 </Td> <Td> 6 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> South Korea </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Lesotho </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Liberia </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Mali </Td> <Td> 12 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Nigeria </Td> <Td> 23 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Pakistan </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Sierra Leone </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Somalia </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Sri Lanka </Td> <Td> 9 </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Sweden </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Switzerland </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td>

ISTJs account for about 10 -- 14 % of the population . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 The MBTI instrument </Li> <Li> 2 ISTJ characteristics <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Type description </Li> <Li> 2.2 Learning </Li> <Li> 2.3 Working </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Cognitive functions <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Dominant : Introverted sensing ( Si ) </Li> <Li> 3.2 Auxiliary : Extraverted thinking ( Te ) </Li> <Li> 3.3 Tertiary : Introverted feeling ( Fi ) </Li> <Li> 3.4 Inferior : Extraverted intuition ( Ne ) </Li> <Li> 3.5 Shadow functions </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 See also </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> <Li> 6 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> The MBTI instrument ( edit ) </H2> <P> The MBTI preferences indicate the differences in people based on the following : </P> <Ul> <Li> How they focus their attention or get their energy ( extraversion or introversion ) </Li> <Li> How they perceive or take in information ( sensing or intuition ) </Li> <Li> How they prefer to make decisions ( thinking or feeling ) </Li> <Li> How they orient themselves to the external world ( judgment or perception ) </Li> </Ul> <P> By using their preference in each of these areas , people develop what Jung and Myers called psychological type . This underlying personality pattern results from the dynamic interaction of their four preferences , in conjunction with environmental influences and their own individual tendencies . People are likely to develop behaviors , skills , and attitudes based on their particular type . Each personality type has its own potential strengths as well as areas that offer opportunities for growth . </P> <P> The MBTI tool consists of multiple choice questions that sort respondents on the basis of the four `` dichotomies '' ( pairs of psychological opposites ) . Sixteen different outcomes are possible , each identified by its own four - letter code , referred to by initial letters . ( N is used for iNtuition , since I is used for Introversion ) . The MBTI is approximately 75 % accurate according to its own manual . </P> <Ul> <Li> I -- Introversion preferred to extraversion : ISTJs tend to be quiet and reserved . They generally prefer interacting with a few close friends rather than a wide circle of acquaintances , and they expend energy in social situations ( whereas extroverts gain energy ) . </Li> <Li> S -- Sensing preferred to intuition : ISTJs tend to be more concrete than abstract . They focus their attention on the details rather than the big picture , and on immediate realities rather than future possibilities . </Li> <Li> T -- Thinking preferred to feeling : ISTJs tend to value objective criteria above personal preference . When making decisions , they generally give more weight to logic than to social considerations . </Li> <Li> J -- Judgment preferred to perception : ISTJs tend to plan their activities and make decisions early . They derive a sense of control through predictability . </Li> </Ul> <H2> ISTJ characteristics ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Type description ( edit ) </H3> <P> ISTJs are logical , organized , sensible , and earnest traditionalists who enjoy keeping their lives and environments well - regulated . Typically reserved and serious individuals , they earn success through their thoroughness and extraordinary dependability . They are capable of shutting out distractions in order to take a practical , logical approach to their endeavors , and are able to make the tough decisions that other types avoid . Realistic and responsible , ISTJs are often seen as worker bees striving steadily toward their goals . Despite their dependability and good intentions , however , ISTJs can experience difficulty in understanding and responding to the emotional needs of others . </P> <P> Although they often focus on their internal world , ISTJs prefer dealing with the present and the factual . They are detail - oriented and weigh various options when making decisions , although they generally stick to the conventional . ISTJs are well - prepared for eventualities and have a good understanding of most situations . They believe in practical objectives , and they value traditions and loyalty . </P> <P> For the Keirsey description , see Inspector ( role variant ) . </P> <H3> Learning ( edit ) </H3> <P> ISTJs learn best and apply themselves to subjects that they deem practical and useful . They bring painstaking attention to detail in their work and will not rest until a concept is fully learned or a job is well completed . As learners , ISTJs tend to need materials , directions , and teachers to be precise and accurate if they are to trust the information that is presented . They prefer concrete and useful applications and will tolerate theory only if it leads to these ends . </P> <P> They like learning activities that allow them time to reflect and think . Material that seems too easy or too enjoyable leads ISTJs to be skeptical of its merit . Because of their practical outlook , ISTJs clearly delineate between work and play . Therefore , their ideal learning environment is task - oriented , has a clear schedule , and has a clear and precise assignment . </P> <H3> Working ( edit ) </H3> <P> ISTJs respect facts . They hold a tremendous store of data within themselves , gathered through their Sensing function . They may have difficulty valuing a theory or idea that differs from their own perspective . However , if they are shown the importance or relevance of the idea by someone whom they respect or care about , the idea becomes a fact that the ISTJ will internalize and vigorously support . </P> <P> ISTJs often work for long periods , devoting their energy to tasks that they see as important to fulfilling a goal . However , they resist putting energy into things that do n't make sense to them , or for which they ca n't see a practical application . They prefer to work alone but can work well in teams when the situation demands it . They like to be accountable for their actions , and they enjoy positions of responsibility . They have little use for theory or abstract thinking , unless the practical application is clear . </P> <P> In general , ISTJs are capable , logical , reasonable , and effective individuals with a deeply driven desire to promote security and peaceful living . They can be highly effective at achieving their goals -- whatever those may be . </P> <H2> Cognitive functions ( edit ) </H2> A diagram of the cognitive functions of each type . A type 's background color represents its Dominant function , and its text color represents its Auxiliary function . <P> Drawing upon Jungian theory , Isabel Myers proposed that for each personality type , the cognitive functions ( sensing , intuition , thinking , and feeling ) form a hierarchy . This hierarchy represents the person 's default pattern of behavior . </P> <P> The Dominant function is the personality type 's preferred role , the one they feel most comfortable with . The secondary Auxiliary function serves to support and expand on the Dominant function . If the Dominant is an information gathering function ( sensing or intuition ) , the Auxiliary is a decision making function ( thinking or feeling ) , and vice versa . The Tertiary function is less developed than the Dominant and Auxiliary , but it matures over time , rounding out the person 's abilities . The Inferior function is the personality type 's fatal weakness . This is the function they are least comfortable with . Like the Tertiary , the Inferior function strengthens with maturity . </P> <P> Jung and Myers considered the attitude of the Auxiliary , Tertiary , and Inferior functions to be the opposite of the Dominant . In this interpretation , if the Dominant function is extraverted , then the other three are introverted , and vice versa . However , many modern practitioners hold that the attitude of the Tertiary function is the same as the Dominant . </P> <P> Using the more modern interpretation , the cognitive functions of the ISTJ are as follows : </P> <H3> Dominant : Introverted sensing ( Si ) ( edit ) </H3> <P> Si collects data in the present moment and compares it with past experiences , a process that sometimes evokes the feelings associated with memory , as if the subject were reliving it . Seeking to protect what is familiar , Si draws upon history to form goals and expectations about what will happen in the future . Using Si , ISTJs thrive on deep analysis of their surroundings . </P> <H3> Auxiliary : Extraverted thinking ( Te ) ( edit ) </H3> <P> Te organizes and schedules ideas and the environment to ensure the efficient , productive pursuit of objectives . Te seeks logical explanations for actions , events , and conclusions , looking for faulty reasoning and lapses in sequence . ISTJs use this function to actively process and evaluate their perceptions . </P> <H3> Tertiary : Introverted feeling ( Fi ) ( edit ) </H3> <P> Fi filters information based on interpretations of worth , forming judgments according to criteria that are often intangible . Fi constantly balances an internal set of values such as harmony and authenticity . Attuned to subtle distinctions , Fi innately senses what is true and what is false in a situation . Fi allows ISTJs to turn their analysis to themselves and others , to understand their feelings and the causes thereof . </P> <H3> Inferior : Extraverted intuition ( Ne ) ( edit ) </H3> <P> Ne finds and interprets hidden meanings , using `` what if '' questions to explore alternatives , allowing multiple possibilities to coexist . This imaginative play weaves together insights and experiences from various sources to form a new whole , which can then become a catalyst to action . While ISTJs are capable of rapid and dogged information processing and number crunching , they often have difficulty with , or simply dismiss , abstract concepts without immediate concrete applications . </P> <H3> Shadow functions ( edit ) </H3> <P> Later personality researchers ( notably Linda V. Berens ) added four additional functions to the descending hierarchy , the so - called `` shadow '' functions to which the individual is not naturally inclined but which can emerge when the person is under stress . The shadow processes `` operate more on the boundaries of our awareness ... We usually experience these processes in a negative way , yet when we are open to them , they can be quite positive . '' For the ISTJ these shadow functions are ( in order ) : </P> <Ul> <Li> Extraverted sensing ( Se ) : Se focuses on the experiences and sensations of the immediate

Following financial problems brought up by the bank representative Judith , he tells his wealthy friend Eddie that he will host a singing competition with a prize of $1,000 . But Buster 's assistant , Miss Crawly , accidentally appends two extra zeroes , and the promotional fliers showing $100,000 are blown out of Buster 's office into the city streets . </P> <P> Animals from all around the city gather for auditions . Those selected include housewife and mother of 25 piglets Rosita ; street musician mouse Mike ; mobster 's son gorilla Johnny ; and punk - rock porcupine Ash . Shy teenage elephant Meena fails her audition out of stage fright , while Ash 's boyfriend Lance is dismissed from the contest . Rosita is paired with another contestant , an exuberant pig named Gunter , for a dance routine . Although Buster discovers the flyers show a prize of $100,000 ( money he does not have ) , he remains optimistic . Buster convinces Eddie to arrange a visit with Eddie 's grandmother , former opera singer and theater actress Nana Noodleman , to persuade her to sponsor the prize money . She is hesitant to contribute but agrees to see a private screening of the show . </P> <P> Encouraged by her grandfather , Meena tries to ask Buster for another chance , but becomes his stage hand instead . When one of the acts quits , and another is injured , Meena is added as an act . The performers ' individual problems begin to hinder rehearsals : Rosita flounders in her dance routine with Gunter , after having been distracted by her parenting duties that have fallen into disarray . After discovering Lance with a new girlfriend and evicting them from her apartment , Ash is devastated and can no longer sing her assigned song , Carly Rae Jepsen 's `` Call Me Maybe . '' Johnny is torn between having to help his father as the driver of a getaway car in a heist and making the practices . When he tries to do both , he does not show up for the planned pickup in time , and his father and his gang are arrested . Meena does not get any help in overcoming her stage fright , and Mike , certain that the prize money is as good as his , buys a fancy car to impress a female mouse , and then swindles a group of bears in a card game at a nightclub . </P> <P> The day of the screening , the bears interrupt the show , demanding the money from Mike , who in turn , points to Buster . The bears open the chest containing the prize money , but it is nowhere near $100,000 . The glass tank full of luminescent squids that Buster got to light up the theater breaks under all their weight , flooding the theater , which then comes crashing down . With the lot repossessed by Judith , Buster , who had been living in his theater 's office desk , takes up residence at Eddie 's place ( his parents ' pool house ) . Although the contestants ( besides Mike , who saw Buster as a fraud ) visit him and try to cheer him up , Buster is too despondent to listen to them . He tries to start over by opening a car wash , using the same bucket that his father had used to earn money for Buster 's theater . </P> <P> When Meena goes to the theater 's rubble lot and sings Leonard Cohen 's `` Hallelujah , '' Buster hears her and is inspired to reinstate the show without the prize money . They perform on a makeshift stage on the lot in front of Rosita and Meena 's family members . As Rosita and Gunter perform Taylor Swift 's `` Shake It Off , '' more animals are attracted to the scene as the show is broadcast on the news . Johnny 's rendition of Elton John 's `` I 'm Still Standing '' impresses his father , who then escapes from prison to reconcile with him . Despite an interruption by Judith , Ash sings her original rock song `` Set It All Free . '' Mike returns to the show and sings Frank Sinatra 's `` My Way . '' Meena finally overcomes her fears and sings Stevie Wonder 's `` Do n't You Worry ' bout a Thing , '' which literally brings down the house . The show becomes a success and impresses Nana , who was in the audience . Nana buys the lot and the theater is rebuilt and reopened . </P> <H2> Voice cast ( edit ) </H2> Matthew McConaughey , Reese Witherspoon , Scarlett Johansson , Tori Kelly , Taron Egerton , and Nick Kroll at the film 's premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival . <Ul> <Li> Matthew McConaughey as Buster Moon , an optimistic koala who plans to save his theater from closure by holding a singing competition . </Li> <Li> Reese Witherspoon as Rosita , a pig who gave up her teenage music dreams to become a devoted wife to Norman , and mother to their 25 piglets . </Li> <Li> Seth MacFarlane as Mike , an arrogant street musician mouse with a big Frank Sinatra-esque voice . </Li> <Li> Scarlett Johansson as Ash , a teenage porcupine punk rocker who takes part in an alternative - rock music duo with her boyfriend Lance . </Li> <Li> John C.

He beat out Carmen Cincotti and the 2015 champ , Matt Stonie . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Rules </Li> <Li> 2 Awards </Li> <Li> 3 History <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Controversies </Li> <Li> 3.2 Results ( color - coded by belt color ) </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Media coverage <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Live TV </Li> <Li> 4.2 Film and TV programs </Li> <Li> 4.3 Newspapers </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 Tactics and training </Li> <Li> 6 See also </Li> <Li> 7 References </Li> <Li> 8 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Rules ( edit ) </H2> Nathan 's original Coney Island location <P> Major League Eating ( MLE ) , formerly known as the International Federation of Competitive Eating ( IFOCE ) , has sanctioned the event since 1997 . Today , only entrants currently under contract by MLE can compete in the contest . </P> <P> The field of about 20 contestants typically includes the following : </P> <Ul> <Li> the defending champion ; </Li> <Li> winners of a regional qualifying contest for that season ; </Li> <Li> individuals qualifying as one of two wildcards ( highest two average qualifier scores without winning a single qualifier ) ; and </Li> <Li> those invited by special invitation of the MLE . ( See `` Controversies '' section below . ) </Li> </Ul> <P> The competitors stand on a raised platform behind a long table with drinks and Nathan 's Famous hot dogs in buns . Most contestants have water on hand , but other kinds of drinks can and have been used . Condiments are allowed , but usually are not used . The hot dogs are allowed to cool slightly after grilling to prevent possible mouth burns . The contestant that consumes ( and keeps down ) the most hot dogs and buns ( HDB ) in ten minutes is declared the winner . The length of the contest has changed over the years , previously 12 minutes , and in some years , only three and a half minutes ; since 2008 , 10 minutes . </P> <P> Spectators watch and cheer the eaters on from close proximity . A designated scorekeeper is paired with each contestant , flipping a number board counting each hot dog consumed . Partially eaten hot dogs count and the granularity of measurement is eighths of a length . Hot dogs still in the mouth at the end of regulation count if they are subsequently swallowed . Yellow penalty cards can be issued for `` messy eating , '' and red penalty cards can be issued for `` reversal of fortune '' , which results in disqualification . If there is a tie , the contestants go to a 5 - hot - dog eat - off to see who can eat that many more quickly . Further ties will result in a sudden - death eat - off of eating one more hot dog in the fastest time . </P> <P> After the winner is declared , a plate showing the number of hot dogs eaten by the winner is brought out for photo opportunities . </P> <H2> Awards ( edit ) </H2> <P> The winner of the men 's competition is given possession of the coveted international `` bejeweled '' mustard - yellow belt . The belt is of `` unknown age and value '' according to IFOCE co-founder George Shea and rests in the country of its owner . In 2011 , Sonya Thomas won the inaugural women 's competition and its `` bejeweled '' pink belt . </P> <P> Various other prizes have been awarded over the years . For example , in 2004 Orbitz donated a travel package to the winner . Starting in 2007 , cash prizes have been awarded to the top finishers . </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <P> The Nathan 's Hot Dog Eating Contest has been held at the original location on Coney Island most years since about 1972 , usually in conjunction with Independence Day . According to legend , on July 4 , 1916 , four immigrants held a hot dog eating contest at Nathan 's Famous stand on Coney Island to settle an argument about who was the most patriotic . The contest has supposedly been held each year since then except 1941 ( `` as a protest to the war in Europe '' ) and 1971 ( as a protest to political unrest in the U.S. ) . A man by the name of Jim Mullen is said to have won the first contest , although accounts vary . One account describes Jimmy Durante ( who was not an immigrant ) as competing in that all - immigrant inaugural contest , which was judged by Eddie Cantor and Sophie Tucker . Another describes the event as beginning `` in 1917 , and pitted Mae West 's father , Jack , against entertainer Eddie Cantor . '' In 2010 , however , promoter Mortimer `` Morty '' Matz admitted to having fabricated the legend of the 1916 start date with a man named Max Rosey in the early 1970s as part of a publicity stunt . The legend grew over the years , to the point where The New York Times and other publications were known to have repeatedly listed 1916 as the inaugural year , although no evidence of the contest exists . As Coney Island is often linked with recreational activities of the summer season , several early contests were held on other holidays associated with summer besides Independence Day ; Memorial Day contests were scheduled for 1972 , 1975 , and 1978 , and a second 1972 event was held on Labor Day . </P> <P> In the late 1990s and early 2000s , the competition was dominated by Japanese contestants , particularly Takeru Kobayashi , who won six consecutive contests from 2001 - 2006 . In 2001 , Kobayashi transformed the competition and the world of competitive eating by downing 50 hot dogs -- smashing the previous record ( 25.5 ) . The Japanese eater introduced advanced eating and training techniques that shattered previous competitive eating world records . The rise in popularity of the event coincided with the surge in popularity of the worldwide competitive eating circuit . </P> <P> On July 4 , 2011 , Sonya Thomas became the champion of the first Nathan 's Hot Dog Eating Contest for Women ( previously women had competed against the men , except in one competition that was apparently held in 1975 ) . Eating 40 hot dogs in 10 minutes , Thomas earned the inaugural Pepto - Bismol - sponsored pink belt and won $10,000 . </P> <P> In recent years , a considerable amount of pomp and circumstance have surrounded the days leading up to the event , which has become an annual spectacle of competitive entertainment . The event is presented on an extravagant stage complete with colorful live announcers and an overall party atmosphere . The day before the contest is a public weigh - in with the mayor of New York City . Some competitors don flamboyant costumes and / or makeup , while others may promote themselves with eating - related nicknames . On the morning of the event , they have a heralded arrival to Coney Island on the `` bus of champions '' and are called to the stage individually during introductions . In 2013 , six - time defending champion Joey Chestnut was escorted to the stage in a sedan chair . </P> <P> The competition draws many spectators and worldwide press coverage . In 2007 , an estimated 50,000 came out to witness the event . In 2004 a three - story - high `` Hot Dog Eating Wall of Fame '' was erected at the site of the annual contest . The wall lists past winners , and has a digital clock which counts down the minutes until the next contest . Despite substantial damage suffered at Nathan 's due to Hurricane Sandy in October 2012 , the location was repaired , reopened , and the 2013 event was held as scheduled . </P> <P> ESPN has long enjoyed solid ratings from its broadcast of the Hot Dog Eating Contest on Independence Day , and on July 1 , 2014 , the network announced it had extended its agreement with Major League Eating and will broadcast the contest through 2024 . The event continues to be recognized for its power as a marketing tool . </P> <H3> Controversies ( edit ) </H3> <P> Controversies usually revolve around supposed breaches of rules that are missed by the judges . For example , NY1 television news editor Phil Ellison reviewed taped footage of the 1999 contest and thought that Steve Keiner started eating at the count of one , but the judge , Mike DeVito -- himself the champion of the 1990 , 1993 , and 1994 contests -- was stationed directly in front of Keiner and disputed it , saying it was incorrect . Keiner ate 21 1 / 2 dogs , as shown on the Wall of Fame located at Nathan 's flagship store at the corner of Surf and Stillwell avenues in Coney Island . This controversy was created by George Shea , the chief publicist for Nathan 's , because it created much more publicity for the contest . Shea assured Keiner at the end of the contest that he would clear the confusion up but never did . Keiner never participated in any advertising or contests set up by Shea because of this . </P> <P> Another controversy occurred in 2003 when former NFL player William `` The Refrigerator '' Perry competed as a celebrity contestant . Though he had won a qualifier by eating twelve hot dogs , he ate only four at the contest , stopping after just five minutes . Shea stated that the celebrity contestant experiment will likely not be repeated . </P> <P> At the 2007 contest , the results were delayed to review whether defending champion Takeru Kobayashi had vomited ( also known as a `` Roman method incident '' or `` reversal of fortune '' ) in the final seconds of regulation . Such an incident results in the disqualification of the competitor under the rules of the IFOCE . The judges ruled in Kobayashi 's favor . A similar incident occurred involving Kobayashi in 2002 in a victory over Eric `` Badlands '' Booker . </P> <P> Takeru Kobayashi has not competed in the contest since 2009 due to his refusal to sign an exclusive contract with Major League Eating , which is the current sanctioning body of the contest

Advani , an Indian politician who served as the Deputy Prime Minister of India from 2002 to 2004 , and was the Leader of the Opposition in the 15th Lok Sabha . The book was released on 19 March 2008 by Abdul Kalam , the eleventh President of India . The book has 1,040 pages and narrates autobiographical accounts and events in the life of Advani . It became the best seller book in the non-fiction category and Advani joined Archer as a bestseller author . The book website claims the book sold an excess of 1,000,000 copies .

Advani . This book covers , chronologically , most of all the major and minor events in the life of Advani . My Country My Life presents L.K. Advani 's memoirs in five phases . </P> <H3> Phase one - Sindh and India - an unbreakable bond ( 1927 - 47 ) ( edit ) </H3> <P> It describes Advani 's early life in Sindh , narrating the heart - rending story of India 's blood - soaked partition into two separate countries -- India and Pakistan -- when Britain 's colonial rule came to an end . He was one of the millions of people who migrated from Pakistan to India -- and also from India to Pakistan . After giving a fascinating socio - spiritual history of Sindh , Advani describes his life at home and school in Karachi ( which he calls his ' favourite city ' ) . He also writes about two transformative influences on his life : the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh ( RSS ) , a nationalist organization which he joined as a swayamsevak ( volunteer ) at the age of 14 , and Swami Ranganathananda , head of the Ramakrishna Math in Karachi and an erudite exponent of the philosophy of Swami Vivekananda , whom Advani first met in Karachi . </P> <H3> Phase two - journey from Sindh to Rajasthan ( 1947 - 57 ) ( edit ) </H3> <P> It deals with Advani 's life as an RSS pracharak ( organiser ) in Rajasthan and as an activist of the Bharatiya Jana Sangh . An important section in this phase deals with the mutually respectful relationship between Mahatma Gandhi and the RSS . Advani convincingly counters the vile propaganda by the Indian Left that the RSS was behind the assassination of the Mahatma in January 1948 . </P> <H3> Phase three - entry into National politics ( 1957 - 77 ) ( edit ) </H3> <P> It deals with Advani 's evolution as a political leader in New Delhi . ' I was asked , ' he writes , ' by Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya , the main ideologue , guide and organiser of the Jana Sangh , to shift my base to Delhi and work as a political aide to Atal Bihari Vajpayee , who had just been elected to the Lok Sabha for the first time . It is during these two decades that I gained advanced experience in political organisation , political strategy and leadership . ' A particularly riveting section in this phase is the description of the imposition of the draconian Emergency Rule by the then Prime Minister of India , Indira Gandhi , in June 1975 . Along with tens of thousands of pro-democracy leaders and activists belonging to Opposition parties , Advani spent nineteen months in jail . This phase describes , at considerable length , the sad saga of the Emergency and the thrilling tale of the triumph of democracy . It also demonstrates how the then prime minister , Indira Gandhi tried to destroy the basic structure of the Constitution , a wrongdoing which her party , the Indian National Congress , has never honestly debated or apologized for . </P> <H3> Phase four - BJP spectacular rise ( 1977 - 97 ) ( edit ) </H3> <P> It is the period when Advani emerged as an important national leader . It describes his sterling work in Parliament , and also as the Minister of Information & Broadcasting in the Janata Government ( 1977 -- 79 ) , in dismantling the legal edifice of dictatorship created during the Emergency . It also provides a penetrating account of the disintegration of the Janata Party and the formation of the Bharatiya Janata Party ( BJP ) . A particularly engaging section of this phase is a narration of the BJP 's active participation in the movement for the reconstruction of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya . Advani writes : ' ( It ) soon snowballed into the largest mass movement in the history of independent India . The spectacular public response to my Ram Rath Yatra from Somnath to Ayodhya in September -- October 1990 far exceeded my own expectations . Just as the struggle against the Emergency opened my eyes to the Indian people 's unflinching faith in democracy , the Ayodhya movement opened my eyes to the deep - rooted influence of religion in the lives of Hindus of all castes and sects across the country . The phase ends with a captivating narration of another important political campaign in Advani 's life -- the Swarna Jayanti Rath Yatra , which marked the Golden Jubilee of India 's Independence . </P> <H3> Phase five - India strong & self confident ( 1997 - 2007 ) ( edit ) </H3> <P> It is a period of major accomplishments in Advani 's political career . The BJP 's spectacular rise , since 1989 , culminated in the formation , in March 1998 , of the first truly non-Congress coalition government at the Centre under Atal Bihari Vajpayee 's leadership . After a renewed mandate in 1999 , the government of the BJP - led National Democratic Alliance ( NDA ) served the nation with great dedication and distinction for six years . </P> <P> This phase also provides a candid and self - critical assessment of the unanticipated defeat of the NDA in the May 2004 parliamentary elections . ' I have not the slightest doubt , ' Advani says , ' that , as in the past , the BJP will bounce back again . ' The highlights of this part of the book are the Vajpayee government 's determined fight against Pakistan - supported cross-border terrorism fueled by religious extremism , India 's triumph in the Kargil War , the Vajpayee - Advani duo 's efforts to normalise relations with Pakistan , the hopes and frustrations at the Agra Summit between Vajpayee and General Pervez Musharraf , and Advani 's historic journey to Pakistan in June 2005 . About the controversy generated by this visit , he says , ' I have no regrets . ' </P> <H2> Reaction ( edit ) </H2> <P> Writing in the Hindustan Times , Vir Sanghvi remarks that the book is significant note for what it says , but for what it does n't . He says , `` Advani 's strengths and weaknesses are captured in his new book , My Country My Life , ( Rupa ) . It is a readable , rewarding and often racy account of his political career . Written from the heart , it is part - memoir and part - manifesto '' . </P> <P> Lata Jagtiani in her detailed book review says : `` One may or may not agree with the BJP 's view of the direction that India should take in the future , but there are no two opinions , after reading the autobiography , that there are very few in Indian politics with the mettle and character of Advani . Perhaps this book will serve as an inspiration to many who are deeply for the nation but do n't know the high cost and also the high value of power '' . </P> <H2> References ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> Jump up ^ Asian News International ( 20 March 2008 ) . `` Advani 's autobiography ' My Country , My Life ' released '' .

The term became associated during the Middle Ages with the release of prisoners who gave their word . </P> <P> This differs greatly from amnesty or commutation of sentence in that parolees are still considered to be serving their sentences , and may be returned to prison if they violate the conditions of their parole . Conditions of parole often include things such as obeying the law , not voting in an election , refraining from drug and alcohol use , avoiding contact with the parolee 's victims , obtaining employment and keeping required appointments with a parole officer . Should the parolee have legal dependents , namely minor children , they are also required to show cause of being a dedicated caregiver . A specific type of parole is medical parole or compassionate release which is the release of prisoners on medical or humanitarian grounds . Some justice systems , such as the United States federal system , place defendants on supervised release after serving their entire prison sentence ; this is not the same as parole . In Colorado , parole is an additional punishment after the entire prison sentence is served , called `` mandatory parole '' , per § 18 - 1.3 - 401 ( 1 ) ( a ) ( V ) ( B ) . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Development of modern parole </Li> <Li> 2 Canada </Li> <Li> 3 China </Li> <Li> 4 Israel </Li> <Li> 5 Italy </Li> <Li> 6 New Zealand </Li> <Li> 7 United States <Ul> <Li> 7.1 Early history </Li> <Li> 7.2 Modern history </Li> <Li> 7.3 Difference between parole and mandatory supervision </Li> <Li> 7.4 US immigration law </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 8 Prisoners of war </Li> <Li> 9 See also </Li> <Li> 10 References </Li> <Li> 11 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Development of modern parole ( edit ) </H2> <P> Alexander Maconochie , a Scottish geographer and captain in the Royal Navy , introduced the modern idea of parole when , in 1840 , he was appointed superintendent of the British penal colonies in Norfolk Island , Australia . He developed a plan to prepare them for eventual return to society that involved three grades . The first two consisted of promotions earned through good behaviour , labour , and study . The third grade in the system involved conditional liberty outside of prison while obeying rules . A violation would return them to prison and they would start all over again through the ranks of the three - grade process . He reformed its ticket of leave system , instituting what many consider the world 's first parole system . Prisoners served indeterminate sentences from which they could be released early if they showed evidence of rehabilitation through participation in a graded classification system based on a unit of exchange called a mark . Prisoners earned marks through good behavior , lost them through bad behavior , and could spend them on passage to higher classification statuses ultimately conveying freedom . </P> <P> In an instance of multiple discovery , in 1846 , Arnould Bonneville de Marsangy proposed the idea of parole ( which he termed `` preparatory liberations '' ) to the Civil Tribunal at Reims . </P> <H2> Canada ( edit ) </H2> <P> In general , in Canada , prisoners are eligible to apply for full parole after serving one - third of their sentences . Prisoners are also eligible to apply for day parole , and can do this before being eligible to apply for full parole . </P> <P> Any prisoner whose sentence is less than two years is sent to a correctional facility in the province or territory that convicted him or her , whilst anyone sentenced to serve no less than two years will be sent to a federal correctional facility . </P> <P> Parole is an option for most prisoners . However , parole is not guaranteed , particularly for prisoners serving life or indeterminate sentences . In cases of first - degree murder , one can apply for parole after 25 years if convicted of a single murder . However , if convicted of multiple murder ( either first or second - degree ) , the sentencing judge has the option to make parole ineligibility periods consecutive - thereby extending parole ineligibility beyond 25 years and , in rare cases , beyond a normal life - span . </P> <H2> China ( edit ) </H2> <P> In China , prisoners are often granted medical parole or compassionate release , which releases them on the grounds that they must receive medical treatment which can not be provided for in prison . Occasionally , medical parole is used as a no - publicity way of releasing an accidentally imprisoned convict . </P> <P> The Chinese legal code has no explicit provision for exile , but often dissidents are released on the grounds that they need to be treated for a medical condition in another country , and with the understanding that they will be reincarcerated if they return to China . Dissidents who have been released on medical parole include Ngawang Chophel , Ngawang Sangdrol , Phuntsog Nyidron , Takna Jigme Zangpo , Wang Dan , Wei Jingsheng , Gao Zhan and Fang Lizhi . </P> <H2> Israel ( edit ) </H2> <P> Until 2001 , parole in Israel was possible only after the prisoner had served two thirds of their sentence . On 13 February 2001 the Knesset passed a bill , brought forward by Reuven Rivlin and David Libai , which allowed the early release of prisoners who had served half of their prison term . The law was originally intended to help ease overcrowding in prisons . </P> <H2> Italy ( edit ) </H2> Main article : Libertà condizionata <P> Libertà condizionata is covered by Article 176 of the Italian Penal Code . A prisoner is eligible if he has served at least 30 months ( or 26 years for life sentences ) , and the time remaining on his sentence is less than half the total ( normally ) , a quarter of the total ( if previously convicted or never convicted ) or five years ( for sentences greater than 7.5 years ) . In 2006 , 21 inmates were granted libertà condizionata . </P> <H2> New Zealand ( edit ) </H2> See also : New Zealand Parole Board <P> In New Zealand , inmates serving a short - term sentence ( up to two years ) are automatically released after serving half their sentence , without a parole hearing . Inmates serving sentences of more than two years are normally seen by the New Zealand Parole Board after serving one - third of the sentence , although the judge at sentencing can make an order for a minimum non-parole period of up to two - thirds of the sentence . Inmates serving life sentences usually serve a minimum of 10 years , or longer depending on the minimum non-parole period , before being eligible for parole . Parole is not an automatic right and it was declined in 71 percent of hearings in the year ending 30 June 2010 . Many sentences include a specific non-parole period . </P> <H2> United States ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Early history ( edit ) </H3> <P> Penologist Zebulon Brockway introduced parole when he became superintendent of Elmira Reformatory in Elmira , New York . To manage prison populations and rehabilitate those incarcerated , he instituted a two - part strategy that consisted of indeterminate sentences and parole releases . </P> <H3> Modern history ( edit ) </H3> <P> In the United States , courts may specify in a sentence how much time must be served before a prisoner is eligible for parole . This is often done by specifying an indeterminate sentence of , say , `` 15 to 25 years '' , or `` 15 years to life '' . The latter type is known as an indeterminate life sentence ; in contrast , a sentence of `` life without the possibility of parole '' is known as a determinate life sentence . </P> <P> On the federal level , Congress abolished parole in the Comprehensive Crime Control Act of 1984 ( Pub . L. No. 98 - 473 § 218 ( a ) ( 5 ) , 98 Stat. 1837 , 2027 ( repealing 18 U.S.C.A. § 4201 et seq . ) ) .

Mere good conduct while incarcerated in and of itself does not necessarily guarantee that an inmate will be paroled . Other factors may enter into the decision to grant or deny parole , most commonly the establishment of a permanent residence and immediate , gainful employment or some other clearly visible means of self - support upon release ( such as Social Security if the prisoner is old enough to qualify ) . Many states now permit sentences of life imprisonment without the possibility of parole ( such as for murder and espionage ) , and any prisoner not sentenced to either this or the death penalty will eventually have the right to petition for release ( one state -- Alaska -- maintains neither the death penalty nor life imprisonment without parole as sentencing options ) . </P> <P> Before being granted the privilege of parole , the inmate meets with members of the parole board and is interviewed , The parolee also has a psychological exam . The inmate must first agree to abide by the conditions of parole set by the paroling authority . While in prison , the inmate signs a parole certificate or contract . On this contract are the conditions that the inmate must

The company also ruled the beginnings of the British Empire in India . </P> <P> The company received a Royal Charter from Queen Elizabeth I on 31 December 1600 , coming relatively late to trade in the Indies . Before them the Portuguese Estado da India had traded there for much of the 16th century and the first of half a dozen Dutch Companies sailed to trade there from 1595 , which amalgamated in March 1602 into the United East Indies Company ( VOC ) , which introduced the first permanent joint stock from 1612 ( meaning investment into shares did not need to be returned , but could be traded on a stock exchange ) . Wealthy merchants and aristocrats owned the EIC 's shares . Initially the government owned no shares and had only indirect control until 1657 when permanent joint stock was established . </P> <P> During its first century of operation , the focus of the company was trade , not the building of an empire in India . Company interests turned from trade to territory during the 18th century as the Mughal Empire declined in power and the East India Company struggled with its French counterpart , the French East India Company ( Compagnie française des Indes orientales ) during the Carnatic Wars of the 1740s and 1750s . The battles of Plassey and Buxar , in which the British defeated the Bengali powers , left the company in control of Bengal and a major military and political power in India . In the following decades it gradually increased the extent of the territories under its control , controlling the majority of the Indian subcontinent either directly or indirectly via local puppet rulers under the threat of force by its Presidency armies , much of which were composed of native Indian sepoys . </P> <P> By 1803 , at the height of its rule in India , the British East India company had a private army of about 260,000 -- twice the size of the British Army , with Indian revenues of £ 13,464,561 , and expenses of £ 14,017,473 . The company eventually came to rule large areas of India with its private armies , exercising military power and assuming administrative functions . Company rule in India effectively began in 1757 and lasted until 1858 , when , following the Indian Rebellion of 1857 , the Government of India Act 1858 led to the British Crown 's assuming direct control of the Indian subcontinent in the form of the new British Raj . </P> <P> Despite frequent government intervention , the company had recurring problems with its finances . It was dissolved in 1874 as a result of the East India Stock Dividend Redemption Act passed one year earlier , as the Government of India Act had by then rendered it vestigial , powerless , and obsolete . The official government machinery of British India had assumed its governmental functions and absorbed its armies . </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Origins </Li> <Li> 1.2 Formation </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Early voyages to the East Indies </Li> <Li> 3 Foothold in India </Li> <Li> 4 Expansion <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Japan </Li> <Li> 4.2 Mughal convoy piracy incident of 1695 </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 Forming a complete monopoly <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Trade monopoly </Li> <Li> 5.2 Saltpetre trade </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 Basis for the monopoly <Ul> <Li> 6.1 Colonial monopoly </Li> <Li> 6.2 East India Company Army and Navy <Ul> <Li> 6.2. 1 Expansion and conquest </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6.3 Opium trade </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 7 Regulation of the company 's affairs <Ul> <Li> 7.1 Writers </Li> <Li> 7.2 Financial troubles </Li> <Li> 7.3 Regulating Acts of Parliament <Ul> <Li> 7.3. 1 East India Company Act 1773 </Li> <Li> 7.3. 2 East India Company Act 1784 ( Pitt 's India Act ) </Li> <Li> 7.3. 3 Act of 1786 </Li> <Li> 7.3. 4 East India Company Act 1793 ( Charter Act ) </Li> <Li> 7.3. 5 East India Company Act 1813 ( Charter Act ) </Li> <Li> 7.3. 6 Government of India Act 1833 </Li> <Li> 7.3. 7 English Education Act 1835 </Li> <Li> 7.3. 8 Government of India Act 1853 </Li> </Ul> </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 8 Indian Rebellion and disestablishment </Li> <Li> 9 Establishments in Britain </Li> <Li> 10 Legacy and criticisms </Li> <Li> 11 Symbols <Ul> <Li> 11.1 Flags </Li> <Li> 11.2 Coat of arms </Li> <Li> 11.3 Merchant mark </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 12 Ships </Li> <Li> 13 Records </Li> <Li> 14 See also </Li> <Li> 15 Notes and references </Li> <Li> 16 Further reading <Ul> <Li> 16.1 Historiography </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 17 External links </Li> </Ul> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Origins ( edit ) </H3> James Lancaster commanded the first East India Company voyage in 1601 <P> Soon after the defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588 , captured Spanish and Portuguese ships with their cargoes enabled English voyagers to potentially travel the globe in search of riches . London merchants presented a petition to Queen Elizabeth I for permission to sail to the Indian Ocean . The aim was to deliver a decisive blow to the Spanish and Portuguese monopoly of Far Eastern Trade . Elizabeth granted her permission and on 10 April 1591 James Lancaster in the Edward Bonaventure with two other ships sailed from Torbay around the Cape of Good Hope to the Arabian Sea on one of the earliest English overseas Indian expeditions . Having sailed around Cape Comorin to the Malay Peninsula , they preyed on Spanish and Portuguese ships there before returning to England in 1594 . </P> <P> The biggest capture that galvanised English trade was the capture of the great Portuguese Carrack Madre de Deus by Sir Walter Raleigh and the Earl of Cumberland at the Battle of Flores ( 1592 ) . When she was brought in to Dartmouth she was the largest vessel that had been seen in England and her cargo consisted of chests filled with jewels , pearls , gold , silver coins , ambergris , cloth , tapestries , pepper , cloves , cinnamon , nutmeg , benjamin , red dye , cochineal and ebony . Equally valuable was the ships rutter containing vital information on the China , India , and Japan trades . These riches aroused the English to engage in this opulent commerce . </P> <P> In 1596 , three more English ships sailed east but were all lost at sea . A year later however saw the arrival of Ralph Fitch an adventurer merchant who along with his companions had made a remarkable fifteen year overland journey to Mesopotamia , the Persian Gulf , the Indian Ocean , India and Southeast Asia was also of significance . Fitch was then consulted on the Indian affairs and gave even more valuable information to Lancaster . </P> <H3> Formation ( edit ) </H3> <P> On 22 September 1599 , a group of merchants met and stated their intention `` to venture in the pretended voyage to the East Indies ( the which it may please the Lord to prosper ) , and the sums that they will adventure '' , committing £ 30,133 . Two days later , `` the Adventurers '' reconvened and resolved to apply to the Queen for support of the project . Although their first attempt had not been completely successful , they nonetheless sought the Queen 's unofficial approval to continue . They bought ships for their venture and increased their capital to £ 68,373 . </P> <P> The Adventurers convened again , a year later on 31 December and this time they succeeded ; the Queen granted a Royal Charter to `` George , Earl of Cumberland , and 215 Knights , Aldermen , and Burgesses '' under the name , Governor and Company of Merchants of London trading with the East Indies . For a period of fifteen years , the charter awarded the newly formed company a monopoly on English trade with all countries east of the Cape of Good Hope and west of the Straits of Magellan . Any traders in breach of the charter without a licence from the company were liable to forfeiture of their ships and cargo ( half of which went to the Crown and the other half to the company ) , as well as imprisonment at the `` royal pleasure '' . </P> <P> The governance of the company was in the hands of one governor and 24 directors or `` committees '' , who made up the Court of Directors . They , in turn , reported to the Court of Proprietors , which appointed them . Ten committees reported to the Court of Directors . According to tradition , business was initially transacted at the Nags Head Inn , opposite St Botolph 's church in Bishopsgate , before moving to India House in Leadenhall Street . </P> <H2> Early voyages to the East Indies ( edit ) </H2> <P> Sir James Lancaster commanded the first East India Company voyage in 1601 aboard

The lake 's official name was changed in December 2012 to combine the name `` Lake Eyre '' with the indigenous name , Kati Thanda .

The Lake Eyre Basin is a large endorheic system surrounding the lakebed , the lowest part of which is filled with the characteristic salt pan caused by the seasonal expansion and subsequent evaporation of the trapped waters . Even in the dry season there is usually some water remaining in Kati Thanda -- Lake Eyre , normally collecting in over 200 smaller sub-lakes within its margins . The lake was formed by aeolian processes after tectonic upwarping occurred to the south subsequent to the end of the Pleistocene epoch . </P> <P> During the rainy season the rivers from the north - east part of the Lake Eyre Basin ( in outback ( south - west and central ) Queensland ) flow towards the lake through the Channel Country . The amount of water from the monsoon determines whether water will reach the lake and if it does , how deep the lake will get . The average rainfall in the area of the lake is 100 to 150 millimetres ( 3.9 to 5.9 in ) per year . </P> <P> The − 15 m ( − 49 ft ) altitude usually attributed to Kati Thanda -- Lake Eyre refers to the deepest parts of the lake floor , in Belt Bay and the Madigan Gulf . The shoreline lies at − 9 m ( − 30 ft ) . The lake is the area of maximum deposition of sediment in the Lake Eyre Basin . </P> <P> Lake Eyre is divided into two sections which are joined by the Goyder Channel . These are known as Lake Eyre North , which is 144 kilometres ( 89 mi ) in length and 65 kilometres ( 40 mi ) wide , and Lake Eyre South , which measures 65 by 24 kilometres ( 40 by 15 mi ) . The salt crusts are thickest ( up to 50 cm ( 20 in ) ) in the southern Belt Bay , Jackboot Bay and Madigan Gulf sub-basins of Lake Eyre North . </P> <P> Since 1883 , proposals have been made to flood Lake Eyre with seawater brought to the basin via a canal or pipeline . The purpose was , in part , to increase evaporation and thereby increase rainfall in the region downwind of an enlarged Lake Eyre . The added rainfall has been modeled as small . Due to the basin 's low elevation below sea level and the region 's high annual evaporation rate ( between 2,500 and 3,500 millimetres ( 98 and 138 in ) ) , such schemes have generally been considered impractical as it is likely that accumulation of salt deposits would rapidly block the engineered channel . At a rate of 1 cm ( 0.39 in ) evaporation per day , a 3 m ( 9.8 ft ) viaduct flowing a 0.5 m / s ( 1.6 ft / s ) would supply enough water to create a 100 km ( 39 sq mi ) sea . If brine water was not sent back to the ocean , it would precipitate 90,000 long tons ( 91,000 t ) of salt every year . </P> <H2> Salinity ( edit ) </H2> <P> The salinity in the lake increases as the 450 mm ( 18 in ) salt crust dissolves over a period of six months of a major flood resulting in a massive fish kill . When over 4 m ( 13 ft ) deep the lake is no more salty than the sea , but salinity increases as the water evaporates , with saturation occurring at about a 500 mm ( 20 in ) depth . The lake takes on a pink hue when saturated due to the presence of beta - carotene pigment caused by the algae Dunaliella salina . </P> <H2> Floods ( edit ) </H2> <P> Typically a 1.5 m ( 5 ft ) flood occurs every three years , a 4 m ( 13 ft ) flood every decade , and a fill or near fill a few times a century . The water in the lake soon evaporates with a minor or medium flood drying by the end of the following summer . Most of the water entering the lakes arrives via Warburton River . </P> <P> In strong La Niña years the lake can fill . Since 1885 this has occurred in 1886 -- 1887 , 1889 -- 1890 , 1916 -- 1917 , 1950 , 1955 , 1974 -- 1977 , and 1999 -- 2001 , with the highest flood of 6 m ( 20 ft ) in 1974 . Local rain can also fill Kati Thanda -- Lake Eyre to 3 -- 4 m ( 9.8 -- 13.1 ft ) as occurred in 1984 and 1989 . Torrential rain in January 2007 took about six weeks to reach the lake but only placed a small amount of water into it . </P> <P> When recently flooded the lake is almost fresh and native freshwater fish , including bony bream ( Nematolosa erebi ) , the Lake Eyre Basin sub-species of golden perch ( Macquaria ambigua ) and various small hardyhead species ( Craterocephalus spp . ) can survive in it . </P> <H3> 2009 to 2011 ( edit ) </H3> Lake Eyre in 1990 , as seen by STS - 35 <P> The 2009 Lake Eyre flood peaked at 1.5 m ( 5 ft ) deep in late May , which is a quarter of its maximum recorded depth of 6 m ( 20 ft ) . 9 km ( 2 cu mi ) of water crossed the Queensland -- South Australian border with most of it coming from massive floods in the Georgina River . However , owing to the very low rainfall in the lower reaches of these rivers ( contrasting with heavy rainfall in the upper catchments ) the greater proportion soaked into the desert or evaporated en route to the lake , leaving less than 4 km ( 0.96 cu mi ) in the lake which covered an area of 800 km ( 309 sq mi ) or 12 % of the total . As the flood did not start filling the lake 's deepest point ( Belt Bay ) until late March , little bird life appeared preferring instead to nest in the upper reaches of the Lake Eyre Basin , north of Birdsville , where large lakes appeared in January as a result of monsoonal rain . </P> <P> The high rainfall in summer 2010 sent flood water into the Diamantina , Georgina and Cooper Creek catchments of the Lake Eyre basin , with the Cooper Creek reaching the lake for the first time since 1990 . The higher rainfall has prompted many different birds to migrate back to the area for breeding . </P> <P> Heavy local rain in early March 2011 in the Stuart Creek and Warriner catchments filled Lake Eyre South , with Lake Eyre North about 75 per cent covered with water firstly from the Neales and Macumba Rivers , and later from the Warburton River . </P> <H3> 2015 to 2016 ( edit ) </H3> <P> In late 2015 , water began flowing into Lake Eyre following heavy rain in the north - east of the state . </P> <H2> Yacht Club ( edit ) </H2> <P> The Lake Eyre Yacht Club is a dedicated group of sailors who sail on the lake 's floods , including recent trips in 1997 , 2000 , 2001 , 2004 , 2007 and 2009 . A number of 6 m ( 20 ft ) trailer sailers sailed on Kati Thanda -- Lake Eyre in 1975 , 1976 , and 1984 when the flood depth reached 3 -- 6 m ( 9.8 -- 19.7 ft ) . In July 2010 The Yacht Club held its first regatta since 1976 and its first on Lake Killamperpunna , a freshwater lake on Cooper Creek . The Cooper had reached Kati Thanda -- Lake Eyre for the first time since 1990 . </P> <P> When the lake is full , a notable phenomenon is that around midday the surface can often become very flat . The surface then reflects the sky in a way that leaves both the horizon and water surface virtually impossible to see . The commodore of the Lake Eyre Yacht Club has stated that sailing during this time has the

These include online advertising technologies , search , cloud computing , software , and hardware . Google was founded in 1998 by Larry Page and Sergey Brin while they were Ph. D. students at Stanford University , in California . Together , they own about 14 percent of its shares , and control 56 percent of the stockholder voting power through supervoting stock . They incorporated Google as a privately held company on September 4 , 1998 . An initial public offering ( IPO ) took place on August 19 , 2004 , and Google moved to its new headquarters in Mountain View , California , nicknamed the Googleplex . In August 2015 , Google announced plans to reorganize its various interests as a conglomerate called Alphabet Inc . Google , Alphabet 's leading subsidiary , will continue to be the umbrella company for Alphabet 's Internet interests . Upon completion of the restructure , Sundar Pichai was appointed CEO of Google ; he replaced Larry Page , who became CEO of Alphabet . </P> <P> The company 's rapid growth since incorporation has triggered a chain of products , acquisitions , and partnerships beyond Google 's core search engine ( Google Search ) . It offers services designed for work and productivity ( Google Docs , Sheets and Slides ) , email ( Gmail / Inbox ) , scheduling and time management ( Google Calendar ) , cloud storage ( Google Drive ) , social networking ( Google+ ) , instant messaging and video chat ( Google Allo / Duo ) , language translation ( Google Translate ) , mapping and turn - by - turn navigation ( Google Maps / Waze ) , video sharing ( YouTube ) , notetaking ( Google Keep ) , and photo organizing and editing ( Google Photos ) . The company leads the development of the Android mobile operating system , the Google Chrome web browser , and Chrome OS , a lightweight operating system based on the Chrome browser . Google has moved increasingly into hardware ; from 2010 to 2015 , it partnered with major electronics manufacturers in the production of its Nexus devices , and in October 2016 , it released multiple hardware products ( including the Google Pixel smartphone , Home smart speaker , Wifi mesh wireless router , and Daydream View virtual reality headset ) . The new hardware chief , Rick Osterloh , stated : `` a lot of the innovation that we want to do now ends up requiring controlling the end - to - end user experience '' . Google has also experimented with becoming an Internet carrier . In February 2010 , it announced Google Fiber , a fiber - optic infrastructure that was installed in Kansas City ; in April 2015 , it launched Project Fi in the United States , combining Wi - Fi and cellular networks from different providers ; and in 2016 , it announced the Google Station initiative to make public Wi - Fi available around the world , with initial deployment in India . </P> <P> Alexa , a company that monitors commercial web traffic , lists Google.com as the most visited website in the world . Several other Google services also figure in the top 100 most visited websites , including YouTube and Blogger . Google is the most valuable brand in the world , but has received significant criticism involving issues such as privacy concerns , tax avoidance , antitrust , censorship , and search neutrality . Google 's mission statement , from the outset , was `` to organize the world 's information and make it universally accessible and useful '' , and its unofficial slogan was `` Do n't be evil '' . In October 2015 , the motto was replaced in the Alphabet corporate code of conduct by the phrase `` Do the right thing '' . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Financing , 1998 and initial public offering , 2004 </Li> <Li> 1.2 Growth </Li> <Li> 1.3 2013 onward </Li> <Li> 1.4 Acquisitions and partnerships <Ul> <Li> 1.4. 1 2000 -- 2009 </Li> <Li> 1.4. 2 2010 -- present </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 1.5 Google data centers </Li> <Li> 1.6 Alphabet </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Products and services <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Advertising </Li> <Li> 2.2 Search engine </Li> <Li> 2.3 Enterprise services </Li> <Li> 2.4 Consumer services <Ul> <Li> 2.4. 1 Web - based services </Li> <Li> 2.4. 2 Software </Li> <Li> 2.4. 3 Hardware </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2.5 Internet services </Li> <Li> 2.6 Other products </Li> <Li> 2.7 APIs </Li> <Li> 2.8 Other websites </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Corporate affairs and culture <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Employees </Li> <Li> 3.2 Office locations and headquarters <Ul> <Li> 3.2. 1 Mountain View </Li> <Li> 3.2. 2 New York City </Li> <Li> 3.2. 3 Other U.S. cities </Li> <Li> 3.2. 4 International locations </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3.3 Doodles </Li> <Li> 3.4 Easter eggs and April Fools ' Day jokes </Li> <Li> 3.5 Philanthropy </Li> <Li> 3.6 Tax avoidance </Li> <Li> 3.7 Environment </Li> <Li> 3.8 Lobbying </Li> <Li> 3.9 Litigation </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Criticism and controversy </Li> <Li> 5 See also </Li> <Li> 6 References </Li> <Li> 7 Further reading </Li> <Li> 8 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History </H2> Main article : History of Google Google 's original homepage had a simple design because the company founders had little experience in HTML , the markup language used for designing web pages . <P> Google began in January 1996 as a research project by Larry Page and Sergey Brin when they were both PhD students at Stanford University in Stanford , California . </P> <P> While conventional search engines ranked results by counting how many times the search terms appeared on the page , the two theorized about a better system that analyzed the relationships among websites . They called this new technology PageRank ; it determined a website 's relevance by the number of pages , and the importance of those pages that linked back to the original site . </P> <P> Page and Brin originally nicknamed their new search engine `` BackRub '' , because the system checked backlinks to estimate the importance of a site . Eventually , they changed the name to Google ; the name of the search engine originated from a misspelling of the word `` googol '' , the number 1 followed by 100 zeros , which was picked to signify that the search engine was intended to provide large quantities of information . Originally , Google ran under Stanford University 's website , with the domains google.stanford.edu and z.stanford.edu . </P> <P> The domain name for Google was registered on September 15 , 1997 , and the company was incorporated on September 4 , 1998 . It was based in the garage of a friend ( Susan Wojcicki ) in Menlo Park , California . Craig Silverstein , a fellow PhD student at Stanford , was hired as the first employee . </P> <H3> Financing , 1998 and initial public offering , 2004 </H3> Google 's first production server . <P> Google was initially funded by an August 1998 contribution of $100,000 from Andy Bechtolsheim , co-founder of Sun Microsystems ; the money was given before Google was incorporated . Google received money from three other angel investors in 1998 : Amazon.com founder Jeff Bezos , Stanford University computer science professor David Cheriton , and entrepreneur Ram Shriram . </P> <P> After some additional , small investments through the end of 1998 to early 1999 , a new $25 million round of funding was announced on June 7 , 1999 , with major investors including the venture capital firms Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers and Sequoia Capital . </P> <P> Early in 1999 , Brin and Page decided they wanted to sell Google to Excite . They went to Excite CEO George Bell and offered to sell it to him for $1 million . He rejected the offer . Vinod Khosla , one of Excite 's venture capitalists , talked the duo down to $750,000 , but Bell still rejected it . </P> <P> Google 's initial public offering ( IPO ) took place five years later , on August 19 , 2004 . At that time Larry Page , Sergey Brin , and Eric Schmidt agreed to work together at Google for 20 years , until the year 2024 . </P> <P> At IPO , the company offered 19,605,052 shares at a price of $85 per share . Shares were sold in an online auction format using a system built by Morgan Stanley and Credit Suisse , underwriters for the deal . The sale of $1.67 bn ( billion ) gave Google a market capitalization of more than $23 bn . By January 2014 , its market capitalization had grown to $397 bn . The vast majority of the 271 million shares remained under the control of Google , and many Google employees became instant paper millionaires . Yahoo ! , a competitor of Google , also benefitted because it owned 8.4 million shares of Google before the IPO took place . </P> <P> There were concerns that Google 's IPO would lead to changes in company culture . Reasons ranged from shareholder pressure for employee benefit reductions to the fact that many company executives would become instant paper millionaires . As a reply to this concern , co-founders Brin and Page promised in a report to potential investors that the IPO would not change the company 's culture . In 2005 , articles in The New York Times and other sources began suggesting that Google had lost its anti-corporate , no evil philosophy . In an effort to maintain the company 's unique culture , Google designated a Chief Culture Officer , who also serves as the Director of Human Resources . The purpose of the Chief Culture Officer is to develop and maintain the culture and work on ways to keep true to the core values that the company was founded on : a flat organization with a collaborative environment . Google has also faced allegations of sexism and ageism from former employees . In 2013 , a class action against several Silicon Valley companies , including Google , was filed for alleged `` no cold call '' agreements which restrained the recruitment of high - tech employees . </P> <P> The stock performed well after the IPO , with shares hitting $350

Before the war , the island of Hispaniola had been united under the Haitian government for a period of 22 years when the newly independent nation , then known as the Republic of Spanish Haiti , was invaded by Haiti in 1822 . Previously known as the Captaincy General of Santo Domingo , the criollo class within the country overthrew the Spanish crown in 1821 before unifying with Haiti a year later . </P> <P> At the time Haiti had been more economically and militarily powerful and had a population 8 to 10 times larger than the former Spanish colony , having been the richest colony in the western hemisphere before the Haitian Revolution . Dominican military officers agreed to merge the newly independent nation with Haiti , as they sought for political stability under the Haitian president Jean - Pierre Boyer , and were attracted to Haiti 's perceived wealth and power at the time . However , due to the Haitian government 's mismanagement , heavy military disputes , and an economic crisis the Haitian government became increasingly unpopular . A conspiracy of Dominicans in Santo Domingo called La Trinitaria hastened the end of the Haitian occupation . </P> <P> In 1844 , the members of La Trinitaria chose El Conde , the prominent `` Gate of the Count '' in the old city walls , as the rallying point for their insurrection against the Haitian occupiers . On the morning of 24 February 1844 , El Conde rang with the shots of the plotters , who had emerged from their secret meetings to openly challenge the Haitians . Their efforts were successful , and for the next ten years , Dominican military strongmen fought to preserve their country 's independence from their Haitian neighbors . In March 1844 , a 30,000 - strong two - pronged attack was successfully repelled by a poorly equipped and undertrained Dominican army under the command of the wealthy rancher Gen. Pedro Santana . Four years later , it took a Dominican flotilla harassing Haitian coastal villages , land reinforcements in the south , and a British and French naval blockade to force the determined Haitian emperor into a one - year truce . In the most thorough and intense encounter of all , Dominican irregulars armed with swords sent Haitian troops into flight on all three fronts in 1855 . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Background <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Ephemeral Independence </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Unification of Hispaniola ( 1822 - 1844 ) <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Resistance </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 War of Independence </Li> <Li> 4 Notes </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Background </H2> José Núñez de Cáceres . <P> At the beginning of the 1800s , the colony of Santo Domingo , which had once been the headquarters of Spanish power in the New World was in its worst decline . Spain during this time was embroiled in the Peninsular War in Europe , and other various wars to maintain control of the Americas . With Spain 's resources spread among its global interest , Santo Domingo became neglected . This period is referred to as the España Boba era . </P> <P> The population of the Spanish colony stood at approximately 80,000 with the vast majority being European descendants and free people of color . Santo Domingo 's plantation economy never truly flourished , because of this the black slave population had been significantly lower than that of the neighboring Saint - Domingue , which was nearing a million slaves before the Haitian Revolution . </P> <H3> Ephemeral independence </H3> <P> Late in 1821 the leader José Núñez de Cáceres proclaimed Santo Domingo 's adhesion to the new `` Republic of Gran Colombia '' , created by Simón Bolívar , but the determination of the island elite to perpetuate their privileged status by maintaining intact all colonial - era institutions such as social hierarchy , land titles , and slavery doomed this limited experiment in liberty to failure two months later . </P> <H2> Unification of Hispaniola ( 1822 - 1844 ) </H2> Main article : Unification of Hispaniola Jean - Pierre Boyer , the mulatto ruler of Haiti <P> A group of Dominican politicians and military officers had expressed interest in uniting the entire island , while they sought for political stability and support under Haiti , which at the time was still seen as having a great deal of wealth and power . Haiti had been by far the richest colony in the western hemisphere and was known as the Pearl of the Antilles . </P> <P> Haiti 's president , Jean - Pierre Boyer , conducted the third military campaign of Santo Domingo , this one was met with resistance , partly due to the previous invasion experiences , and because of Haiti 's overpowering military strength at the time . The population of Haiti had a ratio of 8 : 1 compared to the Dominican population of 1822 . </P> <P> On February 9 , 1822 , Boyer formally entered the capital city , Santo Domingo , where he was met and received by Núñez who handed to him the keys of the Palace . Boyer then proclaimed : `` I have not come into this city as a conqueror but by the will of its inhabitants '' . The island was thus united from `` Cape Tiburon to Cape Samana in possession of one government . '' </P> <P> Eventually the Haitian government became extremely unpopular throughout the country . The Dominican population grew increasingly impatient with Haiti 's poor management and perceived incompetence , and the heavy taxation that was imposed on their side . The country was hit with a severe economic crisis after having been forced to pay a huge indemnity to France . A debt was accrued by Haiti in order to pay for their own independence from the European nation ; this would give rise to many anti-Haitian plots . </P> <H3> Resistance </H3> An assembly of the Trinitarios . <P> In 1838 Juan Pablo Duarte , an educated nationalist , founded a resistance movement called La Trinitaria ( `` The Trinity '' ) along with Ramón Matías Mella and Francisco del Rosario Sánchez . It was so named because its original nine members had organized themselves into cells of three . The cells went on to recruit as separate organizations , maintaining strict secrecy , with little or no direct contact among themselves , in order to minimize the possibility of detection by the Haitian authorities . Many recruits quickly came to the group , but it was discovered and forced to change its name to La Filantrópica ( `` The Philanthropic '' ) . The Trinitarios won the loyalty of two Dominican - manned Haitian regiments . </P> <P> In 1843 the revolution made a breakthrough : they worked with a liberal Haitian party that overthrew President Jean - Pierre Boyer . However , the Trinitarios ' work in the overthrow gained the attention of Boyer 's replacement , Charles Rivière - Hérard . Rivière - Hérard imprisoned some Trinitarios and forced Duarte to leave the island . While gone , Duarte searched for support in Colombia and Venezuela , but was unsuccessful . Upon returning to Haiti , Hérard , a mulatto , faced a rebellion by blacks in Port - au - Prince . The two regiments of Dominicans were among those used by Hérard to suppress the uprising . </P> <P> In December 1843 the rebels told Duarte to return since they had to act quickly because they were afraid the Haitians had learned of their insurrection plans . When Duarte had not returned by February , because of illness , the rebels decided to take action anyway with the leadership of Francisco del Rosario Sánchez , Ramón Matías Mella , and Pedro Santana , a wealthy cattle - rancher from El Seibo who commanded a private army of peons who worked on his estates . </P> <H2> War of independence </H2> Duarte , briefly a member of the governing junta , for a time commanded an armed force as well . He was temperamentally unsuited for generalship , however , and the junta eventually replaced him with General José María Imbert . One of the three main leaders of the Trinitaria movement that ignited the war in 1844 was army General Francisco Sánchez . Other of the three main leaders of the Trinitaria movement that ignited the war in 1844 was army General Ramón Mella , but he and the other Trinitarians soon lost political control to General Pedro Santana , who commanded the army 's victories in the field . <P> On February 27 , 1844 , some 100 Dominicans seized the fortress of Puerta del Conde in the city of Santo Domingo , and the following day the Haitian garrison surrendered . As these Haitian troops withdrew to the west side of the island , they pillaged and burned . Mella headed the provisional governing junta of the new Dominican Republic . On March 14 , Duarte finally returned after recovering from his illness and was greeted in celebration . Haitian Commander , Charles Rivière - Hérard , sent three columns totaling 30,000 men to crush the Dominican uprising . In the south , Hérard was checked by Dominican forces led by Pedro Santana at Azua on March 19 . In the north , General Jean - Louis Pierrot and 15,000 Haitians were repelled in an attack on Santiago by the garrison commanded by José María Imbert . As the Haitians retreated , they laid waste to land . </P> <P> Meanwhile , at sea , the Dominican schooners Maria Chica ( 3 guns ) , commanded by Juan Bautista Maggiolo , and the Separación Dominicana ( 5 guns ) , commanded by Juan Bautista Cambiaso , defeated a Haitian brigantine Pandora ( unk guns ) plus schooners Le signifie ( unk guns ) and La Mouche ( unk guns ) off Tortuguero on April 15 . </P> <P> On June 17 , 1845 , the Dominicans , only a little over a year after winning independence from Haiti , invaded their former master in retaliation for Haitian border raids . The invaders captured two towns on the Plateau du Centre and established a bastion at Cachimán .

Prehistoric technology - wikipedia <H1> Prehistoric technology </H1> Jump to : navigation , search <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> It has been suggested that Ancient technology be merged into this article . ( Discuss ) Proposed since December 2015 . </Td> </Tr> </Table> Main article : History of technology A reconstruction of a Neanderthal male from the Neanderthal Museum <P> Prehistoric technology is technology that predates recorded history . History is the study of the past using written records . Anything prior to the first written accounts of history is prehistoric , including earlier technologies . About 2.5 million years before writing was developed , technology began with the earliest hominids who used stone tools , which they may have used to start fires , hunt , and bury their dead . </P> <P> There are several factors that made the evolution of prehistoric technology possible or necessary . One of the key factors is behavioral modernity of the highly developed brain of Homo sapiens capable of abstract reasoning , language , introspection , and problem solving . The advent of agriculture resulted in lifestyle changes from nomadic lifestyles to ones lived in homes , with domesticated animals , and land farmed using more varied and sophisticated tools . Art , architecture , music and religion evolved over the course of the prehistoric periods . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Old World <Ul> <Li> 1.1 Stone Age <Ul> <Li> 1.1. 1 Lower Paleolithic </Li> <Li> 1.1. 2 Middle Paleolithic </Li> <Li> 1.1. 3 Upper Paleolithic Revolution </Li> <Li> 1.1. 4 Mesolithic period </Li> <Li> 1.1. 5 Neolithic Revolution </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 1.2 Bronze Age </Li> <Li> 1.3 Iron Age </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 New World <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Lithic </Li> <Li> 2.2 Archaic </Li> <Li> 2.3 Formative </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Gallery </Li> <Li> 4 See also </Li> <Li> 5 Notes </Li> <Li> 6 References </Li> <Li> 7 Further reading </Li> <Li> 8 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Old World ( edit ) </H2> Human timeline view discuss edit - 10 -- -- - 9 -- -- - 8 -- -- - 7 -- -- - 6 -- -- - 5 -- -- - 4 -- -- - 3 -- -- - 2 -- -- - 1 -- -- 0 -- Human - like apes Nakalipithecus Ouranopithecus Sahelanthropus Orrorin Ardipithecus Australopithecus Homo habilis Homo erectus Neanderthal Homo sapiens ← Earlier apes ← Separation from gorillas ← Possibly bipedal ← Separation from chimpanzees ← Earliest bipedal ← Earliest stone tools ← Earliest exit from Africa ← Earliest fire use ← Earliest in Europe ← Earliest cooking ← Earliest clothes ← Modern speech ← Modern humans l i s o n l i o n i o n o m i n i d s Axis scale : millions of years . Also see : Life timeline and Nature timeline <H3> Stone Age ( edit ) </H3> <P> The Stone Age is a broad prehistoric period during which stone was widely used in the manufacture of implements with a sharp edge , a point , or a percussion surface . The period lasted roughly 2.5 million years , from the time of early hominids to Homo sapiens in the later Pleistocene era , and largely ended between 6000 and 2000 BCE with the advent of metalworking . </P> <P> The Stone Age lifestyle was that of hunter - gatherers who traveled to hunt game and gather wild plants , with minimal changes in technology . As the last glacial period of the current ice age neared its end ( about 12,500 years ago ) , large animals like the mammoth and bison antiquus became extinct and the climate changed . Humans adapted by maximizing the resources in local environments , gathering and eating a wider range of wild plants and hunting or catching smaller game . Domestication of plants and animals with early stages in the Old World ( Afro - Eurasia ) Mesolithic and New World ( American continent ) Archaic periods led to significant changes and reliance on agriculture in the Old World Neolithic and New World Formative stage . The agricultural life led to more settled existences and significant technological advancements . </P> <P> Although Paleolithic cultures left no written records , the shift from nomadic life to settlement and agriculture can be inferred from a range of archaeological evidence . Such evidence includes ancient tools , cave paintings , and other prehistoric art , such as the Venus of Willendorf . Human remains also provide direct evidence , both through the examination of bones , and the study of mummies . Though concrete evidence is limited , scientists and historians have been able to form significant inferences about the lifestyle and culture of various prehistoric peoples , and the role technology played in their lives . </P> Lower Paleolithic ( edit ) <P> The Lower Paleolithic period was the earliest subdivision of the Paleolithic or Old Stone Age . It spans the time from around 2.5 million years ago when the first evidence of craft and use of stone tools by hominids appears in the current archaeological record , until around 300,000 years ago , spanning the Oldowan ( `` mode 1 '' ) and Acheulean ( `` mode 2 '' ) lithic technology . </P> <P> Early human ( hominid ) used stone tool technology , such as a hand axe that was similar to that used by primates , which are found to have intelligence levels of modern children aged 3 to 5 years . Intelligence and use of technology did not change much for millions of years . The first `` Homo '' species began with Homo habilis about 2.4 to 1.5 million years ago . Homo habilis ( `` handy man ' ) created stone tools called Oldowan tools . Homo ergaster lived in eastern and southern Africa about 2.5 to 1.7 million years ago and used more diverse and sophisticated stone tools than its predecessor , Homo habilis , including having refined the inherited Oldowan tools and developed the first Acheulean bifacial axes . </P> <P> Homo erectus ( `` upright man '' ) lived about 1.8 to 1.3 million years ago in West Asia and Africa and is thought to be the first hominid to hunt in coordinated groups , use complex tools , and care for infirm or weaker companions . Homo antecessor the earliest hominid in Northern Europe lived from 1.2 million to 800,000 years ago and used stone tools . Homo heidelbergensis lived between 600,000 and 400,000 years ago and used stone tool technology similar the Acheulean tools used by Homo erectus . </P> <P> European and Asian sites dating back 1.5 million years ago seem to indicate controlled use of fire by Homo erectus . A northern Israel site from about 690,000 to 790,000 years ago suggests that man could light fires . Homo heidelbergensis may have been the first species to bury their dead about 500,000 years ago . </P> Middle Paleolithic ( edit ) <P> The Middle Paleolithic period occurred in Europe and the Near East , during which the Neanderthals lived ( c. 300,000 -- 28,000 years ago ) . The earliest evidence ( Mungo Man ) of settlement in Australia dates to around 40,000 years ago when modern humans likely crossed from Asia by island - hopping . The Bhimbetka rock shelters exhibit the earliest traces of human life in India , some of which are approximately 30,000 years old . </P> <P> Homo neanderthalensis used Mousterian Stone tools that date back to around 300,000 years ago and include smaller , knife - like and scraper tools . They buried their dead in shallow graves along with stone tools and animal bones , although the reasons and significance of the burials are disputed . </P> <P> Homo sapiens , the only living species in the Homo genus , originated in Africa about 200,000 years ago . As compared to their predecessors , Homo sapiens had greater mental capability and ability to walk erect , which provided freed hands for manipulating objects and far greater use of tools . There was art created during this period . Intentional burial , particularly with grave goods , may be one of the earliest detectable forms of religious practice since it may signify a `` concern for the dead that transcends daily life . '' The earliest undisputed human burial so far dates back 130,000 years . Human skeletal remains stained with red ochre were discovered in the Skhul cave at Qafzeh , Israel with a variety of grave goods . </P> Upper Paleolithic Revolution ( edit ) <P> During the Upper Paleolithic Revolution , advancements in human intelligence and technology changed radically with the advent of Behavioral modernity between 60,000 and 30,000 years ago . Behavioral modernity is a set of traits that distinguish Homo sapiens from extinct hominid lineages . Homo sapiens reached full behavior modernity around 50,000 years ago due to a highly developed brain capable of abstract reasoning , language , introspection , and problem solving . </P> <P> Aurignacian tools , such as stone bladed tools , tools made of antlers , and tools made of bones were created during this period . People began creating clothing . What appear to be sewing needles were found around 40,000 years ago and dyed flax fibers dated 36,000 BP were found in a prehistoric cave in the Republic of Georgia . Human beings may have begun wearing clothing as far back as 190,000 years ago . </P> <P> Cultural aspects emerged , such as art of the Upper Paleolithic period , which included cave painting , sculpture such as the Venus figurines , carvings and engravings of bone and ivory . The most common subject matter was large animals that were hunted by the people of the time . The Cave of Altamira and Paleolithic Cave Art of Northern Spain and Côa Valley Paleolithic Art are examples of such artwork . Musical instruments such as flutes emerged during this period . </P> Mesolithic period ( edit ) <P> The Mesolithic period was a transitional era between the Paleolithic hunter - gatherers , beginning with the Holocene warm period around 11,660 BP and ending with the Neolithic introduction of farming , the date of which varied in each geographical region . Adaptation was required during this period due to climate changes that affected environment and the types of available food . </P> <P> Small stone tools called microliths , including small bladelets and microburins , emerged during this period . For instance , spears or arrows were found at the earliest known Mesolithic battle site at Cemetery 117 in the Sudan . Holmegaard bows were found in the bogs of Northern Europe dating from the Mesolithic period . </P> Neolithic Revolution ( edit ) <P> The Neolithic Revolution was the first agricultural revolution , representing a transition from hunting and gathering nomadic life to an agriculture existence . It evolved independently in six separate locations worldwide circa 10,000 -- 7000 years BP ( 8,000 -- 5,000 BC ) . The earliest known evidence exists in the tropical and subtropical areas of southwestern / southern Asia , northern / central Africa and Central America . </P> <P> There are some key defining characteristics . The Introduction of agriculture resulted in a shift from nomadic to more sedentary lifestyles , and the use of agricultural tools such as the plough , digging stick and hoe ( tool ) made agricultural labor more efficient . Animals were domesticated , including dogs . Another defining characteristic of the period was the emergence of pottery , and , in the late Neolithic period , the wheel was introduced for making pottery . </P> <P> Neolithic architecture included houses and villages built of mud - brick and wattle and daub and the construction of storage facilities , tombs and monuments . Copper metalworking was employed as early as 9000 BC in the Middle East ; and a copper pendant found in northern Iraq dated to 8700 BC . Ground and polished stone tools continued to be created and

The broadcasters used public - domain songs during this period , and according to a 1941 article in Time magazine , `` So often had BMI 's Jeannie ( sic ) With the Light Brown Hair been played that she was widely reported to have turned grey .

'' The marriage was short - lived , however , as the pair suffered numerous conflicts and ultimately separated in 1853 . Perhaps in an attempt to win back his wife , Foster composed `` Jeanie With the Light Brown Hair '' in 1854 . The opening texts of each stanza support the speculation that the song was written with Jane in mind : `` I dream of Jeanie '' ( verse one ) ; `` I long for Jeanie '' ( verse two ) ; and `` I sigh for Jeanie '' ( verse three ) . </P> <P> Although the song remains one of Foster 's most beloved parlor ballads , it was not commercially successful . It was virtually unknown during its time and the initial ten thousand copies sold earned Foster only just over $200 in royalties . Foster , who experienced financial difficulty through most of his career , had to sell the rights to `` Jeanie '' ( as well as other songs , including `` Old Folks at Home '' ) to make ends meet . After his death , the rights to `` Jeanie With the Light Brown Hair '' reverted to Jane , and then to Foster 's daughter Marion in 1879 . </P> <H2> Lyrics ( edit ) </H2> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> Wikisource has original text related to this article : Jeanie with the Light Brown Hair </Td> </Tr> </Table> <P> I dream of Jeanie with the light brown hair , Borne , like a zephyr , on the summer air ; I see her tripping where the bright streams play , Happy as the daisies that dance on her way . Many were the wild notes her merry voice would pour . Many were the blithe birds that warbled them o'er : Oh ! I dream of Jeanie with the light brown hair , Floating , like a vapor , on the soft summer air . I long for Jeanie with the daydawn smile , Radiant in gladness , warm with winning guile ; I hear her melodies , like joys gone by , Sighing round my heart o'er the fond hopes that die : -- Sighing like the night wind and sobbing like the rain , -- Wailing for the lost one that comes not again : Oh ! I long for Jeanie , and my heart bows low , Never more to find her where the bright waters flow . I sigh for Jeanie , but her light form strayed Far from the fond hearts round her native glade ; Her smiles have vanished and her sweet songs flown , Flitting like the dreams that have cheered us and gone . Now the nodding wild flowers may wither on the shore While her gentle fingers will cull them no more : Oh ! I sigh for Jeanie with the light brown hair , Floating , like a vapor , on the soft summer air . </P> <H2> Other versions ( edit ) </H2> <P> Bing Crosby recorded the song on March 22 , 1940 for Decca Records with John Scott Trotter and His Orchestra . </P> <P> Violinist Jascha Heifetz transcribed the song for the violin and it became a signature piece for him for years . The transcription has been performed by many subsequent violinists . </P> <P> The song 's ubiquitous airplay in the 1940s led Spike Jones to create a parody , called `` I Dream of Brownie with the Light Blue Jeans . '' In the song , it turns out that `` Brownie '' is a wire - haired terrier . The instrumental interlude contains a number of references to other Stephen Foster songs . </P> <P> Les Brown 's 1941 big - band song , `` Joltin ' Joe DiMaggio '' , contained the quip , `` We dream of Joey with the light brown bat . '' </P> <P> The 1960 Bugs Bunny short From Hare To Heir , in which Bugs Bunny continually tries to provoke Yosemite Sam into losing his temper , features Bugs ' version `` I dream of Jeanie , she 's a light brown hare ... '' His version also appears in the cartoon Apes of Wrath . </P> <P> Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble sang a version of the song in an episode of The Flintstones titled , `` The House Guests '' , which originally aired on December 22 , 1961 . The lyrics they used were , `` My bosom buddy and my lifelong pal ... lah dee dee dah ... '' . They were trying to prove to Wilma and Betty that they could get along together without fighting while the Rubbles were forced to live with the Flintstones for a week due a water main break in the Rubbles ' house . </P> <P> The character of Laura Petrie , while under the influence of prescription tranquilizers and wine , sings a version of the song in the Season 4 episode of The Dick Van Dyke Show entitled `` Pink Pills and Purple Parents '' ( 1964 ) . The character , played by Mary Tyler Moore , sings the tune with the lyrics `` I dream of Laura with the light brown hair , floating like a zeppelin on the summer air . '' </P> <P> On The Alvin Show , David Seville , while courting a young woman , sang the song to her in a boat , much to the annoyance of Alvin and the Chipmunks , who retaliated with a silly and disrespectful spoof : `` We dream of Jeanie with the green - purple hair / She looks so funny , people stop and stare ... '' which insults Dave 's girlfriend and irritates Dave himself ... and as penance the Chipmunks are forced to sing the song repeatedly with the correct lyrics until they know them by heart . </P> <P> On the September 8 , 1966 episode of F Troop , `` The Singing Mountie '' , Paul Lynde as the title character sings the song to blonde Wrangler Jane as `` I Dream of Wrangler with the light yellow hair . '' </P> <P> Joan Baez paired the song with `` Danny Boy '' , for the medley `` I Dream of Jeanie / Danny Boy '' , which closes her 1975 album Diamonds & Rust . </P> <P> Stina Nordenstam includes an original reworking of the song in her 1998 People Are Strange album of covers . </P> <H2> In popular culture ( edit ) </H2> <P> The opening line notably got used as the basis for the title of the TV series I Dream of Jeannie . </P> <P> In the 1956 Bugs Bunny short `` Broomstick Bunny , '' a play on the title is used in the closing lines : `` Hello , air - raid headquarters ? Well , you 're not gon na believe this , but I just saw a genie with light brown hair chasing a flying sorceress . '' </P> <P> A few lines of the song 's first stanza are sung loudly , a cappella , in the Band of Brothers episode `` Bastogne '' by soldiers Joseph Liebgott , James Alley and an unnamed soldier in a foxhole , shortly before being shelled by Nazi artillery . </P> <P> In the John Cassavetes motion picture Faces , an important scene occurs which revolves around the singing of this song . </P> <P> The full title is used as the nickname for character Jeanie in Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip , most notably several times in the episode `` The Cold Open '' . </P> <P> One of the Pink Panther animated cartoons is entitled Genie with the Light Pink Fur ; it is about a magic lamp that turns the Pink Panther into a genie . </P> <H2> References ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> Jump up ^ O'Connell , Joanne . `` Understanding Stephen Collins Foster , His World and Music '' , ProQuest .

Originally syndicated by Premiere Networks , the show moved to Cumulus Media Networks ( now Westwood One ) at the beginning of 2014 . </P> <P> The program enjoys extensive popularity and has frequently received recognition by the National Association of Broadcasters as an exemplar in American radio . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 About </Li> <Li> 2 History </Li> <Li> 3 Live shows </Li> <Li> 4 Characters </Li> <Li> 5 Show members </Li> <Li> 6 TV program </Li> <Li> 7 Public service </Li> <Li> 8 Awards </Li> <Li> 9 Discography </Li> <Li> 10 References </Li> <Li> 11 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> About ( edit ) </H2> <P> `` Focusing on comedy and talk , The Bob & Tom Show is a mash - up of news , sports , conversation , and interviews '' which airs new broadcasts every weekday morning live from 6 to 10 A.M. in the Eastern Time Zone ( 5 -- 9 A.M. Central ) or tape - delayed on affiliated stations in other time zones . There is an additional weekday segment which airs between 10 : 00 and 10 : 20 A.M. ET only on home station WFBQ . As of February 13 , 2017 , the post-show segment airs only on select dates rather than daily . </P> <P> Since January 31 , 2011 , The Bob & Tom Show has aired on the American Forces Radio Network as the morning show on AFN 's Legacy Channel - The World 's Classic Rock Station . The Bob & Tom Show repurposes their live morning show as an overnight show called Bob & Tom All Nighter . All Nighter airs 12 -- 5 A.M. on a few terrestrial affiliated stations and their streams . </P> <P> During the show , live or pre-recorded comic songs and skits are often played , including many from a huge library of archived pieces . There are frequent impromptu `` calls '' from numerous characters voiced primarily by Steve Salge , Ron Sexton , and Dean Metcalf . </P> <P> Several guests usually join the primary cast each day in the studio or via phone or satellite , including numerous comedians who tour nationally . The show has frequently featured up - and - coming comedians who went on to become household names , including Ellen DeGeneres , Drew Carey , Louis CK , Jim Gaffigan , Daniel Tosh , George Lopez , Brad Garrett , Ron White , and Tim Allen . </P> <P> Professional athletes ( including frequent guest Pat McAfee and , in past years , Peyton Manning , Jeff Saturday , Reggie Miller , and numerous INDYCAR drivers ) , musicians , and actors from television and movies are also frequent Bob & Tom guests . The show has occasionally talked with national politicians , although those interviews generally steer clear of controversial issues . Nationally known authors including frequent guest John Feinstein have also been featured . </P> <P> The show introduced the free Bob & Tom Show App for iOS and Android in early 2016 , through which users may hear live streams of new broadcasts on weekday mornings through affiliate stations plus `` B&T 24 / 7 , '' a continuous stream of `` Best of Bob & Tom '' shows . This marked the first time that a stream of broadcasts from the show 's archive became available 24 hours a day , 7 days a week at no charge to listeners . Previously , `` B&T 24 / 7 '' was available only to paid subscribers of the `` VIP '' feature at the show 's web site . `` B&T 24 / 7 '' features segments recorded throughout the show 's history , most featuring the original primary cast of Bob , Tom , Chick , and Kristi . </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <P> For most of The Bob & Tom Show 's 35 + year history , the cast consisted of hosts Bob Kevoian and Tom Griswold , sports commentator and comic foil Chick McGee , news director Kristi Lee , and producer Dean Metcalf . Kevoian and Griswold originally teamed up in the early 1980s at Petoskey , Michigan station WJML before being lured to WFBQ `` Q95 '' Indianapolis in 1983 to host what was initially a music - heavy morning show . After McGee ( in 1986 ) and Lee ( in 1988 ) joined the show , the primary cast that listeners would know for decades simply as `` Bob , Tom , Chick , and Kristi '' was set . </P> <P> As the show became more popular and successful , Mark Patrick , Dave Dugan , Whit Grayson , Steve Salge , and Ron Sexton joined the Bob & Tom staff to voice dozens of recurring fictional and parody characters . Salge and Sexton , along with Metcalf , are still active today as voices of most of the show 's fictional characters and callers . </P> <P> On January 5 , 1995 , Chick left The Bob and Tom Show to become co-host of a show called Kevin & McGee at KGB - FM in San Diego , California . After six months in San Diego , McGee returned on July 10 , 1995 to his former job on The Bob & Tom Show . Dave Wilson filled in for Chick at first and then Gunner filled in for the rest of Chick 's absence . </P> <P> Steve Allee is the show 's music director . He has co-produced more than 50 Bob & Tom albums over the past 25 years . </P> <P> In the early years of the show , Pat Carlini served as a fifth in - studio cast member , joining Bob , Tom , Chick , and Kristi during their second or third hour after Carlini completed her weather - casting and news anchor duties at WTHR television 's morning news program . </P> <P> Since the show was first syndicated in January 1995 , Dave `` Gunner '' Gunn sometimes filled in for Bob , Tom , Chick , or Kristi when one of them was absent . Additionally , for several days in May 2016 , Gunner filled in while Chick was on vacation , which was Gunner 's first appearance during all - new broadcasts in years . Subsequently , Gunner occasionally joined the cast , both to `` run the board '' ( operate the broadcast studio 's main audio mixing console , which Tom calls `` master control '' ) and to serve as an additional co-host . Gunner served as the show 's host during `` Best of Bob & Tom '' broadcasts when the primary cast was on vacation until the January 2017 debut of his sports - oriented morning show on sister station WNDE ; hosting duties for `` Best of '' broadcasts have subsequently been handled by Christopher Geisen , formerly of WOFX - FM in Cincinnati , and , the Kerrigan & Christopher morning show at WTUE - FM , Dayton , OH , now a member of the show 's staff . </P> <P> On September 1 , 2015 , Bob and Tom were selected as inductees to the National Radio Hall of Fame . The induction ceremony took place on November 5 , 2015 , at the Museum of Broadcast Communications in downtown Chicago . During his induction speech , Bob announced his retirement effective at the end of 2015 . Bob 's last day on the air was December 17 , 2015 . He planned to spend retirement traveling with his wife , Becky . The `` master control '' seat , historically occupied by Bob , has been filled after his retirement mostly by Bob and Tom staffers who do not speak on the air . </P> <P> In recent years , Scott Potasnik ( `` P - taz '' ) replaced Gunner as the fourth in - studio voice when Bob went on extended vacations or took Mondays off . Tom has described `` P - taz '' as the show 's `` sex desk '' correspondent and , after Bob 's retirement , as its `` fact checker . '' </P> <P> The show has also been featuring `` guest hosts , '' usually comedians , as a fourth or fifth in - studio voice , sometimes for several days or weeks at a time . Josh Arnold served as a frequent guest host during spring and early summer of 2016 before being named a regular cast member on August 1 , 2016 . </P> <P> Kristi Lee announced on January 11 , 2016 , that she , too , had left the show , having last appeared on December 17 , 2015 . She returned to the show on July 11 , 2016 , resuming her traditional news and commentary role . </P> <P> During Kristi 's absence , Carlini had re-joined The Bob & Tom Show as news anchor ( for all four hours each morning ) . After Kristi returned , Carlini appeared on a half - time basis for several days and later resumed a fill - in role when Kristi was on vacation . Potasnik has also not been a regular cast member since early summer 2016 . </P> <P> On November 17 , 2016 , Bob and Tom were reunited during their induction into the Indiana Broadcasters Hall of Fame . On April 3 , 2017 , Bob made his first live on - air appearance since his retirement for the show 's annual Cincinnati Reds Opening Day broadcast . On May 26 , 2017 , Bob made his second appearance and his first with Kristi Lee at the Indy 500 Carb Day show . </P> <P> After Tom announced via social media that Finley , his four - year - old daughter with Kelly McCarthy , would be undergoing surgery for the removal of a benign brain tumor , The Bob & Tom Show announced that Bob would fill in for Tom during the show 's regular broadcast on Friday , December 8 , 2017 . </P> <H2> Live shows ( edit ) </H2> <P> The show 's primary cast performed live on stage with guest comedians and live musicians at evening shows in venues around the country for several years in the late 1990s and early 2000s . Later , they supported the Friends of the Bob & Tom Show Comedy Tour , which featured many of their frequent guests and spawned Comedy Central broadcasts and a DVD recording . </P> <H2> Characters ( edit ) </H2> <P> Many fictional characters and parodies of real - life people have sprung up during the show 's history , some voiced by Bob Kevoian , Tom Griswold , Chick McGee , on - air producer Dean Metcalf , Steve Salge , and Ron Sexton . </P> <Dl> <Dt> Recurring characters </Dt> </Dl> <Ul> <Li> Floyd the Truck Driver ( Ron Sexton ) </Li> <Li> Jumbo the Elephant (

The frontal lobe is located at the front of each cerebral hemisphere ( in front of the parietal lobe and the temporal lobe ) . It is separated from the parietal lobe by a groove between tissues called the central sulcus , and from the temporal lobe by a deeper groove called the lateral sulcus ( Sylvian fissure ) . The most anterior rounded part of the frontal lobe ( though not well - defined ) is known as the frontal pole , one of the three poles of the cerebrum . </P> <P> The precentral gyrus , a portion of the frontal lobe directly anterior to the central sulcus , contains the primary motor cortex , which controls voluntary movements of specific body parts . </P> <P> The frontal lobe contains most of the dopamine - sensitive neurons in the cerebral cortex . The dopaminergic system is associated with reward , attention , short - term memory tasks , planning , and motivation . Dopamine tends to limit and select sensory information arriving from the thalamus to the forebrain . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Structure </Li> <Li> 2 Function </Li> <Li> 3 Clinical significance <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Damage <Ul> <Li> 3.1. 1 Symptoms </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3.2 Genetic </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 History <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Psychosurgery </Li> <Li> 4.2 Theories of function </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 In other animals </Li> <Li> 6 Additional images </Li> <Li> 7 See also </Li> <Li> 8 References </Li> <Li> 9 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Structure ( edit ) </H2> Animation . Frontal lobe ( red ) of left cerebral hemisphere . <P> On the lateral surface of the human brain , the central sulcus separates the frontal lobe from the parietal lobe . The lateral sulcus separates the frontal lobe from the temporal lobe . </P> <P> The frontal lobe can be divided into a lateral , polar , orbital ( above the orbit ; also called basal or ventral ) , and medial part . Each of these parts consists of a particular gyrus : </P> <Ul> <Li> Lateral part : lateral part of the superior frontal gyrus , middle frontal gyrus , inferior frontal gyrus . </Li> <Li> Polar part : Transverse frontopolar gyri , frontomarginal gyrus . </Li> <Li> Orbital part : Lateral orbital gyrus , anterior orbital gyrus , posterior orbital gyrus , medial orbital gyrus , gyrus rectus . </Li> <Li> Medial part : Medial part of the superior frontal gyrus , cingulate gyrus . </Li> </Ul> <P> The gyri are separated by sulci . E.g. , the precentral gyrus is in front of the central sulcus , and behind the precentral sulcus . The superior and middle frontal gyri are divided by the superior frontal sulcus . The middle and inferior frontal gyri are divided by the inferior frontal sulcus . </P> <P> In humans , the frontal lobe reaches full maturity around the late 20s , marking the cognitive maturity associated with adulthood . A small amount of atrophy , however , is normal in the aging person 's frontal lobe . Fjell , in 2009 , studied atrophy of the brain in people aged 60 -- 91 years . The 142 healthy participants were scanned using MRI . Their results were compared to those of 122 participants with Alzheimer 's disease . A follow - up one year later showed there to have been a marked volumetric decline in those with Alzheimer 's and a much smaller decline ( averaging 0.5 % ) in the healthy group . These findings corroborate those of Coffey , who in 1992 indicated that the frontal lobe decreases in volume approximately 0.5 % -- 1 % per year . </P> <H2> Function ( edit ) </H2> <P> The frontal lobe plays a large role in voluntary movement . It houses the primary motor cortex which regulates activities like walking . </P> <P> The function of the frontal lobe involves the ability to project future consequences resulting from current actions , the choice between good and bad actions ( or better and best ) ( also known as conscience ) , the override and suppression of socially unacceptable responses , and the determination of similarities and differences between things or events . </P> <P> The frontal lobe also plays an important part in integrating longer non-task based memories stored across the brain . These are often memories associated with emotions derived from input from the brain 's limbic system . The frontal lobe modifies those emotions to generally fit socially acceptable norms . </P> <P> Psychological tests that measure frontal lobe function include finger tapping ( as the frontal lobe controls voluntary movement ) , the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test , and measures of language and numeracy skills . </P> <H2> Clinical significance ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Damage ( edit ) </H3> <P> Stuss , et al. discuss in a review of many studies how damage to the frontal lobe can occur in an assortment of ways and result in many different consequences . Transient ischemic attacks ( TIAs ) also known as mini-strokes , and strokes are common causes of frontal lobe damage in older adults ( 65 and over ) . These strokes and mini-strokes can occur due to the blockage of blood flow to the brain or as a result of the rupturing of an aneurysm in a cerebral artery . Other ways in which injury can occur include head injuries such as traumatic brain injuries incurred following accidents , diagnoses such as Alzheimer 's disease or Parkinson 's disease ( which cause dementia symptoms ) , and frontal lobe epilepsy ( which can occur at any age ) . </P> Symptoms ( edit ) <P> Common effects of damage to the frontal lobe are varied . Patients who have experienced frontal lobe trauma may know the appropriate response to a situation but display inappropriate responses to those same situations in `` real life '' . Similarly , emotions that are felt may not be expressed in the face or voice . For example , someone who is feeling happy would not smile , and his or her voice would be devoid of emotion . Along the same lines , though , the person may also exhibit excessive , unwarranted displays of emotion . Depression is common in stroke patients ; it affects a great number of those who have experienced one . Also common along with depression is a loss of or decrease in motivation . Someone might not want to carry out normal daily activities and would not feel `` up to it '' . Those who are close to the person who has experienced the damage may notice that the person no longer behaves like him or herself . This personality change is characteristic of damage to the frontal lobe and was exemplified in the case of Phineas Gage . The frontal lobe is the same part of the brain that is responsible for executive functions such as planning for the future , judgement , decision - making skills , attention span , and inhibition . These functions can decrease drastically in someone whose frontal lobe is damaged . </P> <P> Consequences that are seen less frequently are also varied . Confabulation may be the most frequently indicated `` less common '' effect . In the case of confabulation , someone gives false information while maintaining the belief that it is the truth ; he or she can not remember the accurate information . In a small number of patients , uncharacteristic cheerfulness can be noted . This effect is seen mostly in patients with lesions to the right frontal portion of the brain . </P> <P> Another infrequent effect is that of reduplicative paramnesia , in which patients believe that the location in which they currently reside is a replica of one located somewhere else . Similarly , those who experience Capgras syndrome after frontal lobe damage believe that an identical `` replacement '' has taken the identity of a close friend , relative , or other person and is posing as that person . This last effect is seen mostly in schizophrenic patients who also have a neurological disorder in the frontal lobe . </P> <H3> Genetic ( edit ) </H3> <P> A report from the National Institute of Mental Health says a gene variant of ( COMT ) that reduces dopamine activity in the prefrontal cortex is related to poorer performance and inefficient functioning of that brain region during working memory tasks , and to a slightly increased risk for schizophrenia . </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Psychosurgery ( edit ) </H3> <P> In the early 20th century , a medical treatment for mental illness , first developed by Portuguese neurologist Egas Moniz , involved damaging the pathways connecting the frontal lobe to the limbic system . Frontal lobotomy ( sometimes called frontal leucotomy ) successfully reduced distress but at the cost of often blunting the subject 's emotions , volition and personality . The indiscriminate use of this psychosurgical procedure , combined with its severe side effects and a mortality rate of 7.4 to 17 per cent , gained it a bad reputation . The frontal lobotomy has largely died out as a psychiatric treatment . More precise psychosurgical procedures are still used , although rarely . They may include anterior capsulotomy ( bilateral thermal lesions of the anterior limbs of the internal capsule ) or the bilateral cingulotomy ( involving lesions of the anterior cingulate gyri ) and might be used to treat otherwise untreatable obsessional disorders or clinical depression . </P> <H3> Theories of function ( edit ) </H3> <P> Theories of frontal lobe function can be separated into four categories : </P> <Ul> <Li> Single - process theories , which propose that `` damage to a single process or system is responsible for a number of different dysexecutive symptoms '' </Li> <Li> Multi-process theories , which propose `` that the frontal lobe executive system consists of a number of components that typically work together in everyday actions ( heterogeneity of function ) '' </Li> <Li> Construct - led theories , which propose that `` most if not all frontal functions can be explained by one construct ( homogeneity of function ) such as working memory or inhibition '' </Li> <Li> Single - symptom theories , which propose that a specific dysexecutive symptom ( e.g. , confabulation ) is related to the processes and construct of the underlying structures . </Li> </Ul> <P> Other theories include : </P> <Ul> <Li> Stuss ( 1999 ) suggests a differentiation into two categories according to homogeneity and heterogeneity of function . </Li> <Li> Grafman 's managerial knowledge units ( MKU ) / structured event complex ( SEC ) approach ( cf . Wood & Grafman , 2003 ) </Li> <Li> Miller & Cohen 's integrative theory of prefrontal functioning (

It was played at the San Siro stadium in Milan , Italy , on 28 May 2016 , between Spanish teams Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid , in a repeat of the 2014 final . It was the second time in the tournament 's history that both finalists were from the same city . Real Madrid won 5 -- 3 on a penalty shoot - out after a 1 -- 1 draw at the end of extra time , securing a record - extending 11th title in the competition . </P> <P> Real Madrid earned the right to play against the winners of the 2015 -- 16 UEFA Europa League , Sevilla , in the 2016 UEFA Super Cup .

Internazionale became tenants in 1947 , and the stadium has been shared by the two clubs ever since , with Inter winning the first European Cup final played at the stadium in 1965 . The stadium was used as a venue in the 1934 FIFA World Cup , UEFA Euro 1980 , and the 1990 FIFA World Cup . Its current capacity is 80,018 , but is reduced to just under 80,000 seats for UEFA competitions . </P> <P> The 2016 final marked the first time a final has been held at the San Siro when neither of its tenants were able to win the competition , as Milan and Internazionale both failed to qualify for any European competitions after their performance in the 2014 -- 15 Serie A . </P> <H2> Background ( edit ) </H2> Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane won the Champions League while playing for the club in 2002 <P> This final was the sixth tournament final to feature two teams from the same association , the third all - Spanish final , and the second between teams from the same city , fielding exactly the two teams that faced each other in the 2014 final , making it the seventh repeated final pairing . The all - Madrid final also guaranteed the city of Madrid becoming the most successful city in the European Cup with 11 wins and 17 final appearances , and also in all UEFA club competitions with 16 wins , overtaking the city of Milan with 10 wins and 16 final appearances in the European Cup and 15 wins in all UEFA club competitions . </P> <P> Real Madrid reached a record 14th final after a 1 -- 0 aggregate win against Manchester City , with a chance to win a record 11th title . Previously , they won finals in 1956 , 1957 , 1958 , 1959 , 1960 , 1966 , 1998 , 2000 , 2002 , and 2014 , and lost in 1962 , 1964 and 1981 . This was also their 18th final in all UEFA club competitions , having also played in two Cup Winners ' Cup finals ( losing in 1971 and 1983 ) and two UEFA Cup finals ( winning in 1985 and 1986 ) . Their manager , Zinedine Zidane , who scored the winning goal for Real Madrid in the 2002 final , was aiming to become the seventh man to win the Champions League as both player and manager , joining Miguel Muñoz , Giovanni Trapattoni , Johan Cruyff , Carlo Ancelotti , Frank Rijkaard and Pep Guardiola . </P> <P> Atlético Madrid reached their third European Cup final after defeating Bayern Munich on away goals ( 2 -- 2 on aggregate ) . Their previous two European Cup finals in 1974 and 2014 both ended in defeats , to Bayern Munich and Real Madrid respectively . Atlético Madrid had also played in three Cup Winners ' Cup finals ( winning in 1962 , and losing in 1963 and 1986 ) and two Europa League finals ( winning in 2010 and 2012 ) , with their most recent Europa League triumph in 2012 led by current coach Diego Simeone . He had the chance to join fellow Argentinians Luis Carniglia and Helenio Herrera as the only non-European coaches to win the European Cup / Champions League . If they would win the Champions League , they would join Juventus , Ajax , Bayern Munich and Chelsea as clubs to have won the three main European club competitions . On the other hand , if they were to lose , they would become the first team to lose their first three European Cup finals . </P> <P> Apart from the 2014 final , won by Real Madrid 4 -- 1 after extra time , the only previous Madrid Derby matches in European competitions were in the 1958 -- 59 European Cup semi-finals , where Real Madrid won 2 -- 1 in a replay , after a 2 -- 2 aggregate draw , and in the 2014 -- 15 UEFA Champions League quarter - finals , where Real Madrid won 1 -- 0 on aggregate . </P> <H2> Road to the final ( edit ) </H2> For more details on this topic , see 2015 -- 16 UEFA Champions League . <P> Note : In all results below , the score of the finalist is given first ( H : home ; A : away ) . </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th colspan="4"> Real Madrid </Th> <Th> Round </Th> <Th colspan="4"> Atlético Madrid </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Opponent </Td> <Td colspan="3"> Result </Td> <Td> Group stage </Td> <Td> Opponent </Td> <Td colspan="3"> Result </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Shakhtar Donetsk </Td> <Td colspan="3"> 4 -- 0 ( H ) </Td> <Td> Matchday 1 </Td> <Td> Galatasaray </Td> <Td colspan="3"> 2 -- 0 ( A ) </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Malmö FF </Td> <Td colspan="3"> 2 -- 0 ( A ) </Td> <Td> Matchday 2 </Td> <Td> Benfica </Td> <Td colspan="3"> 1 -- 2 ( H ) </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Paris Saint - Germain </Td> <Td colspan="3"> 0 -- 0 ( A ) </Td> <Td> Matchday 3 </Td> <Td> Astana </Td> <Td colspan="3"> 4 -- 0 ( H ) </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Paris Saint - Germain </Td> <Td colspan="3"> 1 -- 0 ( H ) </Td> <Td> Matchday 4 </Td> <Td> Astana </Td> <Td colspan="3"> 0 -- 0 ( A ) </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Shakhtar Donetsk </Td> <Td colspan="3"> 4 -- 3 ( A ) </Td> <Td> Matchday 5 </Td> <Td> Galatasaray </Td> <Td colspan="3"> 2 -- 0 ( H ) </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Malmö FF </Td> <Td colspan="3"> 8 -- 0 ( H ) </Td> <Td> Matchday 6 </Td> <Td> Benfica </Td> <Td colspan="3"> 2 -- 1 ( A ) </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td colspan="4"> Group A winners <Table> <Tr> <Th> Pos </Th> <Th> Team <Ul> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> </Ul> </Th> <Th> Pld </Th> <Th> Pts </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> </Th> <Td> Real Madrid </Td> <Td> 6 </Td> <Td> 16 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> </Th> <Td> Paris Saint - Germain </Td> <Td> 6 </Td> <Td> 13 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> </Th> <Td> Shakhtar Donetsk </Td> <Td> 6 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> </Th> <Td> Malmö </Td> <Td> 6 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> </Table> Source : UEFA </Td> <Td> Final standings </Td> <Td colspan="4"> Group C winners <Table> <Tr> <Th> Pos </Th> <Th> Team <Ul> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> </Ul> </Th> <Th> Pld </Th> <Th> Pts </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> </Th> <Td> Atlético Madrid </Td> <Td> 6 </Td> <Td> 13 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> </Th> <Td> Benfica </Td> <Td> 6 </Td> <Td> 10 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> </Th> <Td> Galatasaray </Td> <Td> 6 </Td> <Td> 5 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> </Th> <Td> Astana </Td> <Td> 6 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> </Table> Source : UEFA </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Opponent </Td> <Td> Agg . </Td> <Td> 1st leg </Td> <Td> 2nd leg </Td> <Td> Knockout phase </Td> <Td> Opponent </Td> <Td> Agg . </Td> <Td> 1st leg </Td> <Td> 2nd leg </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Roma </Td> <Td> 4 -- 0 </Td> <Td> 2 -- 0 ( A ) </Td> <Td> 2 -- 0 ( H ) </Td> <Td> Round of 16 </Td> <Td> PSV Eindhoven </Td> <Td> 0 -- 0 ( 8 -- 7 p ) </Td> <Td> 0 -- 0 ( A ) </Td> <Td> 0 -- 0 ( a.e.t. ) ( H ) </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Wolfsburg </Td> <Td> 3 -- 2 </Td> <Td> 0 -- 2 ( A ) </Td> <Td> 3 -- 0 ( H ) </Td> <Td> Quarter - finals </Td> <Td> Barcelona </Td> <Td> 3 -- 2 </Td> <Td> 1 -- 2 ( A ) </Td> <Td> 2 -- 0 ( H ) </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Manchester City </Td> <Td> 1 -- 0 </Td> <Td> 0 -- 0 ( A ) </Td> <Td> 1 -- 0 ( H ) </Td> <Td> Semi-finals </Td> <Td> Bayern Munich </Td> <Td> 2 -- 2 ( a ) </Td> <Td> 1 -- 0 ( H ) </Td> <Td> 1 -- 2 ( A ) </Td> </Tr> </Table> <H2> Pre-match ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Ambassadors ( edit ) </H3> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Javier Zanetti </Td> <Td> Paolo Maldini </Td> </Tr> </Table> <P> The ambassadors for the final were former Argentine international Javier Zanetti , who won the Champions League with Internazionale against Bayern Munich in 2010 , and former Italian international Paolo Maldini , who won five European Cups with Milan . </P> <H3> Logo ( edit ) </H3> <P> UEFA unveiled the brand identity of the final on 27 August 2015 in Monaco ahead of the group stage draw .

In a 2009 listing published by Bloody Disgusting , it was reported that the script would be written by Bryan Bertino and the film directed by Laurent Briet . In 2010 , the horror website Shock Till You Drop reported that Relativity Media put The Strangers : Part II on hold because they decided the film might not be in their interest , despite the fact that Universal Pictures was willing to distribute it . However , Rogue Pictures confirmed in January 2011 that the sequel was again in production , and was then scheduled to begin filming as early as April 2011 ; in a press release , Rogue revealed the plot would concern `` a family of four who have been evicted from their home due to the economy , and are paid a visit by the same three strangers from the first film . '' </P> <P> According to Liv Tyler , star of the original film , Part II was slated for release in 2014 , but that did not occur . In 2015 , The Wrap reported that the sequel was in production , and that Relativity Media and GK Films had scheduled the film for a December 2 , 2016 , release date , though it was later removed from the schedule . </P> <P> Roberts said that while he was in Los Angeles , the producers of 47 Meters Down met him for dinner and asked if he could read a script called Prey At Night . He liked the script and wondered if he wanted to get involved in a sequel despite having released the first film years before but finally accepted and decided to add his personal touch . </P> <H3> Casting ( edit ) </H3> <P> In February 2017 , it was announced that Johannes Roberts would be the sequel 's new director , and that filming would commence during the summer of the same year . In May 2017 , Christina Hendricks , Bailee Madison , and Lewis Pullman were reported as the film 's stars , and production began in Los Angeles on May 30 . In June 2017 , it was announced Martin Henderson had also joined the cast . </P> <H3> Filming ( edit ) </H3> <P> Filming began in June 2017 in Covington , Kentucky , and concluded on July 10 , 2017 . </P> <H2> Release ( edit ) </H2> <P> On October 12 , 2017 , Collider reported the film would be released on March 9 , 2018 , by Aviron Pictures . A teaser trailer for the film was released on November 16 , 2017 . The official trailer debuted on January 5 , 2018 . </P> <H3> Box office ( edit ) </H3> <P> In the United States and Canada , The Strangers : Prey at Night was released alongside The Hurricane Heist , Gringo and A Wrinkle in Time , and was projected to gross around $7 million from 2,464 theaters in its opening weekend . It made $4 million on its first day , including $610,000 from Thursday night previews . It went on to debut to $10.4 million , finishing third at the box office behind Black Panther and A Wrinkle in Time . </P> <H3> Critical reception ( edit ) </H3> <P> On review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes , the film holds an approval rating of 38 % based on 66 reviews , and an average rating of 5 / 10 . The website 's critical consensus reads , `` The Strangers : Prey at Night may appeal to fans of the original who 've been jonesing for a sequel , but its thin story and ironic embrace of genre tropes add up to a bloody step back . '' On Metacritic , which assigns normalized rating to reviews , the film has a weighted average score of 49 out of 100 , based on 23 critics , indicating `` mixed or average reviews '' . Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of `` C '' on an A+ to F scale , down from the `` B -- '' given to the first film . </P> <P> Bloody Disgusting gave the film a positive review , saying , `` The Strangers : Prey At Night really takes The Strangers to the next level , and serves as a perfect introduction to The Strangers for new horror fans . You can go back and watch The Strangers and be just as happy for their previous relentless onslaughts '' . IGN also praised the film , writing that `` Skillfully made , spooky , stylish , and featuring some quite good character work , The Strangers : Prey at Night stands much taller than the 2008 original . The central killers are plenty scary , and some of the images on display would make John Carpenter proud . '' Writing for / Film , Candice Frederick gave the film a 7 / 10 , writing that `` Though its characters may fumble and its winks to the first film may not be as slick as I 'd like them to be , Prey at Night does maintain the original commitment of presenting horror to the most mundane . It does n't just disrupt an innocent setting of a quiet suburb ... It is that relentless seclusion , heightened by a haunting soundtrack of otherwise harmless songs . '' </P> <P> Brian Douglas from The Hollywood Reporter praised the tone of the film , writing , `` While the original Strangers was devoid of any sense of the 80s , instead opting for a kind of timeless modern quality , Roberts ' sequel boasts its stylistic debts , with everything from camera shots , and music choices culled from the 80s , forming an impressionistic collage of a time period that feels made for the big - screen . '' Staci Wilson writing for Dread Central also praised the film , writing `` Aside from the quick setup introducing the targets , The Strangers : Prey at Night really is a nonstop thrill ride . I know it 's a cliché , but sometimes you 've just got to call it as you see it . I was breathless from start to finish . Kudos to Roberts on his best movie yet ! He was wise to amp up the atmosphere with a kick - ass original score and flawless cinematography . '' </P> <P> Glenn Kenny of The New York Times gave the film a mixed review and compared sequences of the film to Lucio Fulci 's Zombi and the slasher film The Mutilator , adding : `` If you recognize those films , you might find yourself mildly diverted by this tawdry , occasionally effective shock - delivery device . Watching it with a demonstrative crowd in a Times Square theater proved to this former grindhouse devotee that sometimes you can go home again , at least momentarily . That said , the movie 's ludicrously drawn - out finale sapped the good will out of some of my fellow audience members . '' Kimber Myers of the Los Angeles Times also gave the film a mixed review and wrote that `` ... although the film is as slim and poorly balanced as a cheap knife , The Strangers : Prey at Night is a stylish 1980s throwback that packs plenty of terror into its short running time . This is n't a horror movie that will take up residence in your nightmares for weeks , but the sequel to the solid 2008 original The Strangers is nonetheless just as effective in the short term as its well - made counterparts '' . Owen Gleiberman , writing for Variety , described the film as `` Friday the 13th with four victims and three Jasons ... ( it 's ) shameless in its bluntly misanthropic family - of - lambs - to - the - slaughter violence , its blithe depravity that 's more fetishized than felt . It does n't take much , though -- as it did n't in the ' 80s -- to create a one - weekend horror hit . '' </P> <P> The Guardian 's Benjamin Lee gave the film more of a negative review , rating the film 2 / 5 stars despite praising Hendricks ' performance , noting

Written by Bob Geldof , it was the band 's second number one single . </P> <P> The full length version appeared on the group 's third album , The Fine Art of Surfacing . It includes a reprise of the first verse , which was edited for the single release . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History </Li> <Li> 2 Chart performance <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Weekly singles charts </Li> <Li> 2.2 Year - end charts </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Live performances </Li> <Li> 4 References </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <P> According to Geldof , he wrote the song after reading a telex report at Georgia State University 's campus radio station , WRAS , on the shooting spree of 16 - year - old Brenda Ann Spencer , who fired at children in a school playground at Grover Cleveland Elementary School in San Diego , California , US on 29 January 1979 , killing two adults and injuring eight children and one police officer . Spencer showed no remorse for her crime and her full explanation for her actions was `` I do n't like Mondays . This livens up the day '' . The song was first performed less than a month later . </P> <P> Geldof explained how he wrote the song : </P> <P> I was doing a radio interview in Atlanta with ( Johnnie ) Fingers and there was a telex machine beside me . I read it as it came out . Not liking Mondays as a reason for doing somebody in is a bit strange . I was thinking about it on the way back to the hotel and I just said ' Silicon chip inside her head had switched to overload ' . I wrote that down . And the journalists interviewing her said , ' Tell me why ? ' It was such a senseless act . It was the perfect senseless act and this was the perfect senseless reason for doing it . So perhaps I wrote the perfect senseless song to illustrate it . It was n't an attempt to exploit tragedy . </P> <P> Geldof had originally intended the song as a B - side , but changed his mind after the song was successful with audiences on the Rats ' US tour . Spencer 's family tried unsuccessfully to prevent the single from being released in the United States . Despite being a major hit in the United Kingdom , it only reached # 73 on the US Billboard Hot 100 . The song was played regularly by album - oriented rock format radio stations in the United States throughout the 1980s , although radio stations in San Diego refrained from playing the track for some years in respect to local sensitivities about the shooting . </P> <P> The strings were arranged by Fiachra Trench . Apart from Geldof , pianist Johnnie Fingers and drummer Simon Crowe are the only members of the group who appear on the recording . </P> <P> In the UK the song reached Number One on the singles chart in July 1979 , and won the Best Pop Song and Outstanding British Lyric categories at the Ivor Novello Awards . </P> <H2> Chart performance ( edit ) </H2> <Table> <Tr> <Td> <H3> Weekly singles charts ( edit ) </H3> <Table> <Tr> <Th> Chart ( 1979 ) </Th> <Th> Peak position </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Australia </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Canada </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Ireland </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> New Zealand </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> UK </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> U.S. Billboard Hot 100 </Td> <Td> 73 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> U.S. Cash Box Top 100 </Td> <Td> 84 </Td> </Tr> </Table> </Td> <Td> <H3> Year - end charts ( edit ) </H3> <Table> <Tr> <Th> Chart ( 1979 ) </Th> <Th> Position </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Australia </Td> <Td> 6 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Canada </Td> <Td> 117 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> New Zealand </Td> <Td> 25 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> UK </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Table> <Tr> <Th> Chart ( 1980 ) </Th> <Th> Position </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Canada </Td> <Td> 55 </Td> </Tr> </Table> </Td> </Tr> </Table> <H2> Live performances ( edit ) </H2> <P> On 9 September 1981 , Geldof was joined on stage by fellow Boomtown Rat , Johnnie Fingers , to perform the song for The Secret Policeman 's Ball sponsored by Amnesty International . A recording of that performance appears on the 1982 album , The Secret Policeman 's Other Ball . </P> <P> The Boomtown Rats performed the song for Live Aid at Wembley Stadium in 1985 . This was the band 's final major appearance . On singing the line , `` And the lesson today is how to die '' , Geldof paused for 20 seconds while the crowd applauded on the significance to those starving in Africa that Live Aid was intended to help . </P> <P> At a concert in London in 1995 , almost ten years later to the day , Bon Jovi covered the song after being joined on stage by Geldof at Wembley Stadium . This recorded performance features on Bon Jovi 's live album One Wild Night Live 1985 -- 2001 , as well as on the bonus 2 - CD edition of These Days . Bon Jovi was again joined by Geldof for a performance of the song at The O2 Arena on 23 June 2010 , the 10th night of their 12 - night residency . Geldof himself performed a version of the song while hosting the Live 8 concert in London , on 2 July 2005 . </P> <P> `` I Do n't Like Mondays '' was subsequently covered by Tori Amos on her 2001 album Strange Little Girls and later by G4 on their 2006 album Act Three . </P> <H2> References ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> Jump up ^ Roberts , David ( 2006 ) .

In some contexts , the two terms are distinguished : the `` international '' or `` global economy '' being measured separately and distinguished from national economies while the `` world economy '' is simply an aggregate of the separate countries ' measurements . Beyond the minimum standard concerning value in production , use , and exchange the definitions , representations , models , and valuations of the world economy vary widely . It is inseparable from the geography and ecology of Earth . </P> <P> It is common to limit questions of the world economy exclusively to human economic activity , and the world economy is typically judged in monetary terms , even in cases in which there is no efficient market to help valuate certain goods or services , or in cases in which a lack of independent research or government cooperation makes establishing figures difficult . Typical examples are illegal drugs and other black market goods , which by any standard are a part of the world economy , but for which there is by definition no legal market of any kind . </P> <P> However , even in cases in which there is a clear and efficient market to establish a monetary value , economists do not typically use the current or official exchange rate to translate the monetary units of this market into a single unit for the world economy , since exchange rates typically do not closely reflect worldwide value , for example in cases where the volume or price of transactions is closely regulated by the government . </P> World share of GDP ( PPP ) ( World Bank , 2011 ) . <P> Rather , market valuations in a local currency are typically translated to a single monetary unit using the idea of purchasing power . This is the method used below , which is used for estimating worldwide economic activity in terms of real US dollars or euros .
