Morphologically it is intermediate between the coyote and gray wolf , and is of a reddish , tawny color . The Red Wolf is a federally listed endangered species of the United States and is protected by law . It has been listed by IUCN as a critically endangered species since 1996 . It is considered the rarest species of wolf and is one of the five most endangered species of wolf in the world . </P> <P> Red wolves may have been the first New World wolf species encountered by European colonists , and were originally distributed throughout the eastern United States from the Atlantic Ocean to central Texas , and in the north from the Ohio River Valley , northern Pennsylvania and southern New York south to the Gulf of Mexico . The red wolf was nearly driven to extinction by the mid-1900s due to aggressive predator - control programs , habitat destruction , and extensive hybridization with coyotes . By the late 1960s , it occurred in small numbers in the Gulf Coast of western Louisiana and eastern Texas . Fourteen of these survivors were selected to be the founders of a captive - bred population , which was established in the Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium between 1974 and 1980 . After a successful experimental relocation to Bulls Island off the coast of South Carolina in 1978 , the red wolf was declared extinct in the wild in 1980 to proceed with restoration efforts .

Most E. coli strains are harmless , but some serotypes can cause serious food poisoning in their hosts , and are occasionally responsible for product recalls due to food contamination . The harmless strains are part of the normal flora of the gut , and can benefit their hosts by producing vitamin K , and preventing colonization of the intestine with pathogenic bacteria , having a symbiotic relationship . E. coli is expelled into the environment within fecal matter . The bacterium grows massively in fresh fecal matter under aerobic conditions for 3 days , but its numbers decline slowly afterwards . </P> <P> E. coli and other facultative anaerobes constitute about 0.1 % of gut flora , and fecal -- oral transmission is the major route through which pathogenic strains of the bacterium cause disease . Cells are able to survive outside the body for a limited amount of time , which makes them potential indicator organisms to test environmental samples for fecal contamination . A growing body of research , though , has examined environmentally persistent E. coli which can survive for extended periods outside a host . </P> <P> The bacterium can be grown and cultured easily and inexpensively in a laboratory setting , and has been intensively investigated for over 60 years . E. coli is a chemoheterotroph whose chemically defined medium must include a source of carbon and energy .

The series chronicles the violent dynastic struggles among the realm 's noble families for the Iron Throne , while other families fight for independence from it . It opens with additional threats in the icy North and Essos in the east . </P> <P> Showrunner David Benioff jokingly suggested `` The Sopranos in Middle - earth '' as Game of Thrones ' tagline , referring to its intrigue - filled plot and dark tone in a fantasy setting of magic and dragons . In a 2012 study of deaths per episode , it ranked second out of 40 recent U.S. TV drama series ( with an average of 14 ) . </P> <H3> Themes </H3> Main article : Themes in A Song of Ice and Fire <P> The series is generally praised for what is perceived as a sort of medieval realism . George R.R. Martin set out to make the story feel more like historical fiction than contemporary fantasy , with less emphasis on magic and sorcery and more on battles , political intrigue , and the characters , believing that magic should be used moderately in the epic fantasy genre . Martin has stated that `` the true horrors of human history derive not from orcs and Dark Lords , but from ourselves . '' </P> <P> A common theme in the fantasy genre is the battle between good and evil , which Martin says does not mirror the real world . Just like people 's capacity for good and for evil in real life , Martin explores the questions of redemption and character change . The show allows the audience to view different characters from their perspective , unlike in many other fantasies , and thus the supposed villains can provide their side of the story . Benioff said , `` George brought a measure of harsh realism to high fantasy . He introduced gray tones into a black - and - white universe . '' </P> <P> In early seasons , under the influence of the A Song of Ice and Fire books , main characters were regularly killed off , and this was credited with developing tension among viewers . Later seasons , however , critics pointed out that certain characters had developed `` plot armor '' , attributing this to the show 's deviating from the books and becoming more | The time setting of Game of Thrones is | [

As of 31 July 2017 , this feat has only been achieved 43 times in more than two thousand Test matches , the form of the sport in which national representative teams compete in matches of up to five days ' duration . The first Test hat - trick was recorded on 2 January 1879 , in only the third Test match to take place , by the Australian pace bowler Fred Spofforth , nicknamed `` The Demon Bowler '' , who dismissed three English batsmen with consecutive deliveries at the Melbourne Cricket Ground . The most recent bowler to achieve the feat was English spin bowler Moeen Ali against South Africa on 31 July 2017 . At least one bowler from each of the ten nations that have played Test cricket have taken a Test hat - trick . </P> <P> A player has taken two hat - tricks in the same Test match only once . Playing for Australia against South Africa in the first match of the 1912 Triangular Tournament at Old Trafford , Manchester , England , leg spinner Jimmy Matthews took a hat - trick in South Africa 's first and second innings , both taken on 28 May 1912 . He completed both hat - tricks by dismissing South Africa 's Tommy Ward . Only three other cricketers have taken more than one Test hat - trick : Australian off spinner Hugh Trumble ( two years apart , between the same teams at the same ground ) , Pakistani fast bowler Wasim Akram ( just over a week apart , in consecutive matches between the same teams ) and English fast bowler Stuart Broad . Three players have taken a hat - trick on their Test debut : English medium pace bowler Maurice Allom in 1930 , New Zealand off - spinner Peter Petherick in 1976 , and Australian pace bowler Damien Fleming in 1994 . Geoff Griffin took the fewest total Test wickets of any player who recorded a hat - trick , taking only eight wickets in his entire Test career . During the match in which he took his hat - trick , Griffin was repeatedly called for throwing by the umpires and never bowled again in a Test match .

The bat is traditionally made from willow wood , specifically from a variety of White Willow called Cricket Bat Willow ( Salix alba var . caerulea ) , treated with raw ( unboiled ) linseed oil , which has a protective function . This variety of willow is used as it is very tough and shock - resistant , not being significantly dented nor splintering on the impact of a cricket ball at high speed , while also being light in weight . The face of the bat is often covered with a protective film by the user . </P> <P> The blade is connected to a long cylindrical cane handle , similar to that of a mid-20th - century tennis racquet , by means of a splice . The handle is usually covered with a rubber grip . Bats incorporate a wooden spring design where the handle meets the blade . The current design of a cane handle spliced into a willow blade through a tapered splice was the invention in the 1880s of Charles Richardson , a pupil of Brunel and the first Chief Engineer of the Severn Railway Tunnel . Spliced handles had been used before this but tended to break at the corner of the join .

Within the context of the series , the Cybermen are a species of emotionless space - faring cyborgs who look to co-opt human beings or other similar species to join and populate their ranks . First appearing in 1966 , the Cybermen were created by Dr. Kit Pedler ( the unofficial scientific advisor to the show ) and story editor Gerry Davis . </P> <P> The Cybermen have seen many redesigns and costume changes over Doctor Who 's long run . Over the years , the show and its many spin - offs in other media have also presented a number of varying origin stories for the species . In their first appearance , The Tenth Planet ( 1966 ) , they are explained as being the product of humans from Earth 's nearly identical `` twin planet '' of Mondas who upgraded themselves into cyborgs in a bid for self - preservation . Forty years later , `` The Age of Steel '' ( 2006 ) depicted the Cybermen 's separate emergence on a parallel universe version of Earth .

This practice is a variation on the Freedom of the City tradition , and has a similar symbolic meaning ; evoking medieval walled cities , the gates of which would be guarded during the day and locked at night , the key symbolises the freedom of the recipient to enter and leave the city at will , as a trusted friend of city residents . </P> <P> In some cities in the Netherlands , Belgium , and Germany , the key to the city is given to the so - called `` prince carnival ( nl ) '' who leads the carnivals which take place the week prior to Septuagesima . The tradition is that the mayor steps down for this period and power is transferred to the prince carnival , who then returns the key at the end of Shrove Tuesday / Mardi Gras . Today , the handing over of the key is mostly symbolic and marks the start and end of the carnival . </P> <P> In Calgary , Alberta , Canada , instead of a key , esteemed visitors receive a white cowboy hat and usually recite one of two oaths ( one formal , the other more silly ) to become honorary Calgarians . </P> <H2> See also ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> List of Freedom of the City recipients ( military ) </Li> <Li> Honorary citizenship </Li> </Ul> <H2> References ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> ^ Jump up to : `` 1985 -- 75th Anniversary Naval Service of Canada '' .

In defiance of the Tea Act of May 10 , 1773 the demonstrators , some disguised as Native Americans , destroyed an entire shipment of tea sent by the East India Company . They boarded the ships and threw the chests of tea into Boston Harbor . The British government responded harshly and the episode escalated into the American Revolution . The Tea Party became an iconic event of American history , and since then other political protests such as the Tea Party movement have referred to themselves as historical successors to the Boston protest of 1773 . </P> <P> The Tea Party was the culmination of a resistance movement throughout British America against the Tea Act , which had been passed by the British Parliament in 1773 . Colonists objected to the Tea Act because they believed that it violated their rights as Englishmen to `` No taxation without representation '' , that is , to be taxed only by their own elected representatives and not by a British parliament in which they were not represented . In addition , the well - connected East India Company had been granted competitive advantages over colonial tea importers , who resented the move and feared additional infringement on their business . Protesters had successfully prevented the unloading of taxed tea in three other colonies , but in Boston , embattled Royal Governor Thomas Hutchinson refused to allow the tea to be returned to Britain . </P> <P> The Boston Tea Party was a significant event in the growth of the American Revolution . Parliament responded in 1774 with the Coercive Acts , or Intolerable Acts , which , among other provisions , ended local self - government in Massachusetts and closed Boston 's commerce . Colonists up and down the Thirteen Colonies in turn responded to the Coercive Acts with additional acts of protest , and by convening the First Continental Congress , which petitioned the British monarch for repeal of the acts and coordinated colonial resistance to them .

The oldest tradition is to use dyed and painted chicken eggs , but a modern custom is to substitute chocolate eggs wrapped in colourful foil , hand - carved wooden eggs , or plastic eggs filled with confectionery such as chocolate . However , real eggs continue to be used in Eastern European tradition . Although eggs , in general , were a traditional symbol of fertility and rebirth , in Christianity , for the celebration of Eastertide , Easter eggs symbolize the empty tomb of Jesus , from which Jesus resurrected . In addition , one ancient tradition was the staining of Easter eggs with the colour red `` in memory of the blood of Christ , shed as at that time of his crucifixion . '' This custom of the Easter egg can be traced to early Christians of Mesopotamia , and from there it spread into Russia and Siberia through the Orthodox Churches , and later into Europe through the Catholic and Protestant Churches . This Christian use of eggs may have been influenced by practices in `` pre-dynastic period in Egypt , as well as amid the early cultures of Mesopotamia and Crete '' . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History </Li> <Li> 2 Decoration and symbolism <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Lenten tradition </Li> <Li> 2.2 Symbolism and related customs </Li> <Li> 2.3 Colouring </Li> <Li> 2.4 Patterning </Li> <Li> 2.5 Use of Easter eggs in decorations </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Easter egg games <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Egg hunts </Li> <Li> 3.2 Egg rolling </Li> <Li> 3.3 Egg tapping </Li> <Li> 3.4 Egg dance </Li> <Li> 3.5 Pace egg plays </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Variants <Ul> <Li> 4.1 Chocolate eggs </Li> <Li> 4.2 Marzipan eggs </Li> <Li> 4.3 Artificial eggs </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 5 Legends <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Christian traditions </Li> <Li> 5.2 Parallels in other faiths </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 See also </Li> <Li> 7 References </Li> <Li> 8 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> A decorated ostrich egg with Punic artwork <P> The practice of decorating eggshells as part of spring rituals is ancient , with decorated , engraved ostrich eggs found in Africa which are 60,000 years old .

The importance of opium reduced over time , but the colonial government was dependent on its revenues until the Japanese occupation in 1941 . Although the largest businesses in the early colony were operated by British , American , and other expatriates , Chinese workers provided the bulk of the manpower to build a new port city . </P> <P> By the late 1980s , many ethnic Chinese people had become major business figures in Hong Kong .

Early dissent such as the Canton -- Hong Kong strike were anti-British and anti-imperialist in nature . Later , shortly after the outbreak of the Cultural Revolution in the People 's Republic in May 1966 , local left - wing activists looked for opportunities to instigate an anti-British struggle .

Khufu 's vizier , Hemiunu ( also called Hemon ) is believed by some to be the architect of the Great Pyramid . It is thought that , at construction , the Great Pyramid was originally 280 Egyptian Royal cubits tall ( 146.5 metres ( 480.6 ft ) ) , but with erosion and absence of its pyramidion , its present height is 138.8 metres ( 455.4 ft ) . Each base side was 440 cubits , 230.4 metres ( 755.9 ft ) long . The mass of the pyramid is estimated at 5.9 million tonnes . The volume , including an internal hillock , is roughly 2,500,000 cubic metres ( 88,000,000 cu ft ) . </P> <P> Based on these estimates , building the pyramid in 20 years would involve installing approximately 800 tonnes of stone every day . Additionally , since it consists of an estimated 2.3 million blocks , completing the building in 20 years would involve moving an average of more than 12 of the blocks into place each hour , day and night . The first precision measurements of the pyramid were made by Egyptologist Sir Flinders Petrie in 1880 -- 82 and published as The Pyramids and Temples of Gizeh .

In the inertial frame of reference ( upper part of the picture ) , the black ball moves in a straight line . However , the observer ( brown dot ) who is standing in the rotating / non-inertial frame of reference ( lower part of the picture ) sees the object as following a curved path due to the Coriolis and centrifugal forces present in this frame . <P> In physics , the Coriolis force is an inertial force that acts on objects that are in motion relative to a rotating reference frame . In a reference frame with clockwise rotation , the force acts to the left of the motion of the object . In one with anticlockwise rotation , the force acts to the right . Deflection of an object due to the Coriolis force is called the Coriolis effect . Though recognized previously by others , the mathematical expression for the Coriolis force appeared in an 1835 paper by French scientist Gaspard - Gustave de Coriolis , in connection with the theory of water wheels . Early in the 20th century , the term Coriolis force began to be used in connection with meteorology . </P> <P> Newton 's laws of motion describe the motion of an object in an inertial ( non-accelerating ) frame of reference . When Newton 's laws are transformed to a rotating frame of reference , the Coriolis force and centrifugal force appear . Both forces are proportional to the mass of the object . The Coriolis force is proportional to the rotation rate and the centrifugal force is proportional to the square of the rotation rate . The Coriolis force acts in a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis and to the velocity of the body in the rotating frame and is proportional to the object 's speed in the rotating frame ( more precisely , to the component of its velocity that is perpendicular to the axis of rotation ) . The centrifugal force acts outwards in the radial direction and is proportional to the distance of the body from the axis of the rotating frame . These additional forces are termed inertial forces , fictitious forces or pseudo forces . They allow the application of Newton 's laws to a rotating system . They are correction factors that do not exist in a non-accelerating or inertial reference frame . </P> <P> In popular ( non-technical ) usage of the term `` Coriolis effect '' , the rotating reference frame implied is almost always the Earth . Because the Earth spins , Earth - bound observers need to account for the Coriolis force to correctly analyze the motion of objects .

'' This reference is in a section of the manuscript that was copied from earlier source material . The document also contains the earliest known reference to the feast of Sol Invictus . The fact the Donatists of North Africa celebrated Christmas suggests that the feast was established by the time that church was created in 311 . </P> <P> In Eastern Christianity the birth of Jesus was celebrated in connection with the Epiphany on January 6 , which however emphasized celebration of the baptism of Jesus . Christmas was promoted in the Christian East as part of the revival of Nicene Christianity following the death of the pro-Arian Emperor Valens at the Battle of Adrianople in 378 . The feast was introduced at Constantinople in 379 , in Antioch by John Chrysostom towards the end of the fourth century , probably in 388 , and in Alexandria only in the following century . The feast disappeared after Gregory of Nazianzus resigned as bishop in 381 , although it was reintroduced by John Chrysostom in about 400 . Even in the West , January 6 celebration of the nativity of Jesus seems to have continued until after 380 . </P> <H3> Relation to concurrent celebrations </H3> <P> Many popular customs associated with Christmas developed independently of the commemoration of Jesus ' birth , with certain elements having origins in pre-Christian festivals that were celebrated around the winter solstice by pagan populations who were later converted to Christianity . These elements , including the Yule log from Yule and gift giving from Saturnalia , became syncretized into Christmas over the centuries . The prevailing atmosphere of Christmas has also continually evolved since the holiday 's inception , ranging from a sometimes raucous , drunken , carnival - like state in the Middle Ages , to a tamer family - oriented and children - centered theme introduced in a 19th - century transformation . In fact , the celebration of Christmas was banned on more than one occasion within certain Protestant groups , such as the Puritans , due to concerns that it was too pagan or unbiblical . Jehovah 's Witnesses also reject the celebration of Christmas . </P> Mosaic of Jesus as Christus Sol ( Christ the Sun ) in Mausoleum M in the pre-fourth - century necropolis under St Peter 's Basilica in Rome . <P> Prior to and through the early Christian centuries , winter festivals -- especially those centered on the winter solstice -- were the most popular of the year in many European pagan cultures . Reasons included the fact that less agricultural work needed to be done during the winter , as well as an expectation of better weather as spring approached .

About two thousand Nazis marched to the centre of Munich , where they confronted the police , which resulted in the death of 16 Nazis and four police officers . Hitler was not wounded during the clash , although he locked his left arm with the right arm of Max Erwin von Scheubner - Richter who , when he was shot and killed , pulled Hitler to the pavement with him . Hitler escaped immediate arrest and was spirited off to safety in the countryside . After two days , Hitler was arrested and charged with treason . </P> <P> From Hitler 's perspective , there were three positive benefits from this attempt to seize power unlawfully . First , the putsch brought Hitler to the attention of the German nation and generated front page headlines in newspapers around the world . His arrest was followed by a 24 - day trial , which was widely publicized and gave Hitler a platform to publicize his nationalist sentiment to the nation . Hitler was found guilty of treason and sentenced to five years in Landsberg Prison . The second benefit to Hitler was that he used his time in prison to produce Mein Kampf , which was dictated to his fellow prisoners Emil Maurice and Rudolf Hess . On 20 December 1924 , having served only nine months , Hitler was released . The final benefit to Hitler was the insight that the path to power | The Beer Hall Putsch took place in | [

Caesar was stabbed to death at a meeting of the Senate . As many as 60 conspirators , led by Brutus and Cassius , were involved . According to Plutarch , a seer had warned that harm would come to Caesar no later than the Ides of March . On his way to the Theatre of Pompey , where he would be assassinated , Caesar passed the seer and joked , `` The Ides of March are come '' , implying that the prophecy had not been fulfilled , to which the seer replied `` Aye , Caesar ; but not gone . '' This meeting is famously dramatised in William Shakespeare 's play Julius Caesar , when Caesar is warned by the soothsayer to `` beware the Ides of March . '' The Roman biographer Suetonius identifies the `` seer '' as a haruspex named Spurinna . </P> <P> Caesar 's death was a closing event in the crisis of the Roman Republic , and triggered the civil war that would result in the rise to sole power of his adopted heir Octavian ( later known as Augustus ) . Writing under Augustus , Ovid portrays the murder as a sacrilege , since Caesar was also the Pontifex Maximus of Rome and a priest of Vesta . On the fourth anniversary of Caesar 's death in 40 BC , after achieving a victory at the siege of Perugia , Octavian executed 300 senators and knights who had fought against him under Lucius Antonius , the brother of Mark Antony . The executions were one of a series of actions taken by Octavian to avenge Caesar 's death . Suetonius and the historian Cassius Dio characterised the slaughter as a religious sacrifice , noting that it occurred on the Ides of March at the new altar to the deified Julius . </P> <H2> See also ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> Julius Caesar , a play by William Shakespeare </Li> <Li> The Ides of March , a novel by Thornton Wilder </Li> </Ul> <H2> References ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> Jump up ^ Anscombe , Alfred ( 1908 ) .

It was preceded by the Ming dynasty and succeeded by the Republic of China . The Qing multi-cultural empire lasted almost three centuries and formed the territorial base for the modern Chinese state . It was the fourth largest empire in world history . </P> <P> The dynasty was founded by the Jurchen Aisin Gioro clan in Manchuria . In the late sixteenth century , Nurhaci , originally a Ming vassal , began organizing `` Banners '' , military - social units that included Jurchen , Han Chinese , and Mongol elements . Nurhaci formed the Jurchen clans into a unified entity , which he renamed as the Manchus . By 1636 , his son Hong Taiji began driving Ming forces out of Liaodong and declared a new dynasty , the Qing . In 1644 , peasant rebels led by Li Zicheng conquered the Ming capital , Beijing . Rather than serve them , Ming general Wu Sangui made an alliance with the Manchus and opened the Shanhai Pass to the Banner Armies led by the regent Prince Dorgon , who defeated the rebels and seized the capital . Resistance from the Southern Ming and the Revolt of the Three Feudatories led by Wu Sangui extended the conquest of China proper for nearly four decades and was not completed until 1683 under the Kangxi Emperor ( r . 1661 -- 1722 ) . The Ten Great Campaigns of the Qianlong Emperor from the 1750s to the 1790s extended Qing control into Inner Asia . The early rulers maintained their Manchu ways , and while their title was Emperor , they used `` Bogd khaan '' to the Mongols and they were patrons of Tibetan Buddhism . They governed using Confucian styles and institutions of bureaucratic government and retained the imperial examinations to recruit Han Chinese to work under or in parallel with Manchus | The rulers of the Qing dynasty originated from | [

For the album by Borknagar , see Empiricism ( album ) . John Locke ( 1632 -- 1704 ) , a leading philosopher of British empiricism <P> Empiricism is a theory that states that knowledge comes only or primarily from sensory experience . It is one of several views of epistemology , the study of human knowledge , along with rationalism and skepticism . Empiricism emphasizes the role of empirical evidence in the formation of ideas , over the idea of innate ideas or traditions ; empiricists may argue however that traditions ( or customs ) arise due to relations of previous sense experiences . </P> <P> Empiricism in the philosophy of science emphasizes evidence , especially as discovered in experiments . It is a fundamental part of the scientific method that all hypotheses and theories must be tested against observations of the natural world rather than resting solely on a priori reasoning , intuition , or revelation . </P> <P> Empiricism , often used by natural scientists , says that `` knowledge is based on experience '' and that `` knowledge is tentative and probabilistic , subject to continued revision and falsification .

In the developed world the scythe has largely been replaced by the motorised lawn mower and combine harvester . However , the scythe remained in common use for many years after the introduction of machines because a side - mounted finger - bar mower , whether horse or tractor drawn , could not mow in front of itself and scythes were still needed to open up a meadow by clearing the first swathe to give the mechanical mower room to start . </P> <P> The Dictionary of Greek and Roman Antiquities of Sir William Smith claims that the scythe , known in Latin as the falx foenaria as opposed to the sickle , the falx messoria , was used by the ancient Romans. According to ancient Greek mythology it was believed that Gaea the Greek goddess mother of Titans gave ' a sickle was made out of the strongest metal ' to her youngest son ' Kronos ' who is also youngest of Titans ( also known as God of Harvest ) to seek vengeance against her Husband Ouranos for Torturing their oldest sons . To illustrate this , Smith cites an image of Saturn holding a scythe , from an ancient Italian cameo . The Grim Reaper and the Greek Titan Cronus were often depicted carrying or wielding a scythe . According to Jack Herer and `` Flesh of The Gods '' ( Emboden , W.A. , Jr. , Praeger Press , NY , 1974 . ) ; the ancient Scythians grew hemp and harvested it with a hand reaper that we still call a scythe . </P> <P> The Abbeydale Industrial Hamlet in Sheffield , England is a museum of a scythe - making works that was in operation from the end of the 18th century until the 1930s . This was part of the former scythe - making district of north Derbyshire , which extended into Eckington . Other English scythe - making districts include that around Belbroughton . </P> <P> The German Renaissance scythe sword , the Greek and Roman harpe and the Egyptian khopesh were scythes or sickles modified as weapons or symbols of authority . An improvised conversion of the agricultural scythe to a war scythe by re-attaching the blade parallel to the snaith , similar to a bill has also been used throughout history as a weapon .

Nobel laurette Glenn Seaborg , who later chaired the Atomic Energy Commission , is quoted as saying `` there will be nuclear powered earth - to - moon shuttles , nuclear powered artificial hearts , plutonium heated swimming pools for SCUBA divers , and much more '' . </P> <P> The United Kingdom , Canada , and the USSR proceeded to research and develop nuclear industries over the course of the late 1940s and early 1950s . Electricity was generated for the first time by a nuclear reactor on December 20 , 1951 , at the EBR - I experimental station near Arco , Idaho , which initially produced about 100 kW . Work was also strongly researched in the US on nuclear marine propulsion , with a test reactor being developed by 1953 ( eventually , the USS Nautilus , the first nuclear - powered submarine , would launch in 1955 ) . In 1953 , US President Dwight Eisenhower gave his `` Atoms for Peace '' speech at the United Nations , emphasizing the need to develop `` peaceful '' uses of nuclear power quickly . This was followed by the 1954 Amendments to the Atomic Energy Act which allowed rapid declassification of US reactor technology and encouraged development by the private sector . </P> <H3> Early years </H3> <P> On June 27 , 1954 , the USSR 's Obninsk Nuclear Power Plant became the world 's first nuclear power plant to generate electricity for a power grid , and produced around 5 megawatts of electric power . </P> <P> Later in 1954 , Lewis Strauss , then chairman of the United States Atomic Energy Commission ( U.S. AEC , forerunner of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the United States Department of Energy ) spoke of electricity in the future being `` too cheap to meter '' . Strauss was very likely referring to hydrogen fusion -- which was secretly being developed as part of Project Sherwood at the time -- but Strauss 's statement was interpreted as a promise of very cheap energy from nuclear fission . The U.S. AEC itself had issued far more realistic testimony regarding nuclear fission to the U.S. Congress only months before , projecting that `` costs can be brought down ... ( to ) ... about the same as the cost of electricity from conventional sources ... '' </P> <P> In 1955 the United Nations ' `` First Geneva Conference '' , then the world 's largest gathering of scientists and engineers , met to explore the technology .

The challenges came from a strongly rejuvenated , nationalistic Germany . From 1919 until 1935 , Sweden had been an active supporter of the League of Nations and most of Sweden 's political energy in the international arena had been directed towards the preservation of the League of Nations . </P> <P> The Swedish non-aligned policy during this period was founded on the assumption that there were two opposing powers in the Baltic , Germany and the Soviet Union ; Because these two powers needed to guard against each other , the hope was that they would only ever be able to deploy minor forces against Sweden or other non-aligned countries . It was this expectation which made the defence of a small country feasible . The Molotov - Ribbentrop Pact , signed at the end of August 1939 between Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union , upset this balance . </P> <H3> Pre-war preparations ( edit ) </H3> <P> In 1936 , the Swedish government started to heighten its military preparedness as the international situation worsened .

They are responsible for color vision and function best in relatively bright light , as opposed to rod cells , which work better in dim light . Cone cells are densely packed in the fovea centralis , a 0.3 mm diameter rod - free area with very thin , densely packed cones which quickly reduce in number towards the periphery of the retina . There are about six to seven million cones in a human eye and are most concentrated towards the macula . The commonly cited figure of six million cone cells in the human eye was found by Osterberg in 1935 . Oyster 's textbook ( 1999 ) cites work by Curcio et al. ( 1990 ) indicating an average close to 4.5 million cone cells and 90 million rod cells in the human retina . </P> <P> Cones are less sensitive to light than the rod cells in the retina ( which support vision at low light levels ) , but allow the perception of colour . They are also able to perceive finer detail and more rapid changes in images , because their response times to stimuli are faster than those of rods . Cones are normally one of the three types , each with different pigment , namely : S - cones , M - cones and L - cones . Each cone is therefore sensitive to visible wavelengths of light that correspond to short - wavelength , medium - wavelength and long - wavelength light . Because humans usually have three kinds of cones with different photopsins , which have different response curves and thus respond to variation in colour in different ways , we have trichromatic vision . Being colour blind can change this , and there have been some verified reports of people with four or more types of cones , giving them tetrachromatic vision . The three pigments responsible for detecting light have been shown to vary in their exact chemical composition due to genetic mutation ; different individuals will have cones with different color sensitivity . Destruction of the cone cells from disease would result in color blindness . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Types </Li> <Li> 2 Structure </Li> <Li> 3 | The cones in the eye are located | [

After the exhibition closed , the arm was transported to New York , where it remained on display in Madison Square Park for several years before it was returned to France to join the rest of the statue . </P> <P> During his second trip to the United States , Bartholdi addressed a number of groups about the project , and urged the formation of American committees of the Franco - American Union . Committees to raise money to pay for the foundation and pedestal were formed in New York , Boston , and Philadelphia . The New York group eventually took on most of the responsibility for American fundraising and is often referred to as the `` American Committee '' . One of its members was 19 - year - old Theodore Roosevelt , the future governor of New York and president of the United States . On March 3 , 1877 , on his final full day in office , President Grant signed a joint resolution that authorized the President to accept the statue when it was presented by France and to select a site for it . President Rutherford B. Hayes , who took office the following day , selected the Bedloe 's Island site that Bartholdi had proposed . </P> <H3> Construction in France </H3> The statue 's head on exhibit at the Paris World 's Fair , 1878 <P> On his return to Paris in 1877 , Bartholdi concentrated on completing the head , which was exhibited at the 1878 Paris World 's Fair . Fundraising continued , with models of the statue put on sale . Tickets to view the construction activity at the Gaget , Gauthier & Co. workshop were also offered . The French government authorized a lottery ; among the prizes were valuable silver plate and a terracotta model of the statue . By the end of 1879 , about 250,000 francs had been raised . </P> <P> The head and arm had been built with assistance from Viollet - le - Duc , who fell ill in 1879 . He soon died , leaving no indication of how he intended to transition from the copper skin to his proposed masonry pier . The following year , Bartholdi was able to obtain the services of the innovative designer and builder Gustave Eiffel . Eiffel and his structural engineer , Maurice Koechlin , decided to abandon the pier and instead build an iron truss tower . Eiffel opted not to use a completely rigid structure , which would force stresses to accumulate in the skin and lead eventually to cracking . A secondary skeleton was attached to the center pylon , then , to enable the statue to move slightly in the winds of New York Harbor and as the metal expanded on hot summer days , he loosely connected the support structure to the skin using flat iron bars which culminated in a mesh of | The Statue of Liberty was built in | [

It premiered at the Royal Theatre in Copenhagen , Denmark , on 21 December 1879 , having been published earlier that month . The play is set in a Norwegian town circa 1879 . </P> <P> The play is significant for the way it deals with the fate of a married woman , who at the time in Norway lacked reasonable opportunities for self - fulfillment in a male - dominated world . It aroused a great sensation at the time , and caused a `` storm of outraged controversy '' that went beyond the theatre to the world newspapers and society . </P> <P> In 2006 , the centennial of Ibsen 's death , A Doll 's House held the distinction of being the world 's most performed play that year . UNESCO has inscribed Ibsen 's autographed manuscripts of A Doll 's House on the Memory of the World Register in 2001 , in recognition of their historical value . </P> <P> The title of the play is most commonly translated as A Doll 's House , though some scholars use A Doll House . John Simon says that A Doll 's House is `` the British term for what we call a ' dollhouse ' '' .

Before the trial , Mayella is noted for growing red geraniums outside her otherwise dirty home in order to bring some beauty into her life . Due to her family 's living situation , Mayella has no opportunity for human contact or love . She eventually gets so desperate that she attempts to seduce a black man , Tom Robinson , by saving up nickels to send her siblings to go get ice cream so that Mayella can be alone with Tom . Her father sees this through a window and in punishment he beats her . Ewell then finds the sheriff , Heck Tate , and tells him that his daughter has been raped and beaten by Tom . At the trial , Atticus points out that only the right side of Mayella 's face is injured , suggesting a left - handed assailant ; Tom 's left arm is mangled and useless , but Bob Ewell is left - handed . When Atticus asks her if she has any friends , she becomes confused because she does not know what a friend is .

Tracing its heritage back to Thomas Jefferson and James Madison 's Democratic - Republican Party , the modern - day Democratic Party was founded around 1828 by supporters of Andrew Jackson , making it the world 's oldest political party . </P> <P> The Democrats ' dominant worldview was once social conservatism and economic liberalism while populism was its leading characteristic in the rural South . In 1912 , Theodore Roosevelt ran as a third - party candidate in the Progressive ( `` Bull Moose '' ) Party , leading to a switch of political platforms between the Democratic and Republican Party and Woodrow Wilson being elected as the first fiscally progressive Democrat . Since Franklin D. Roosevelt and his New Deal coalition in the 1930s , the Democratic Party has also promoted a social liberal platform , supporting social justice . </P> <P> Today , the House Democratic caucus is composed mostly of centrists and progressives , with a smaller minority of conservative Democrats . The party 's philosophy of modern liberalism advocates social and economic equality , along with the welfare state . It seeks to provide government intervention and regulation in the economy . These interventions , such as the introduction of social programs , support for labor unions , affordable college tuitions , moves toward universal health care and equal opportunity , consumer protection and environmental protection form the core of the party 's economic policy . The party has united with smaller liberal regional parties throughout the country , such as the Farmer -- Labor Party in Minnesota and the Nonpartisan League in North Dakota . </P> <P> Well into the 20th century , the party had conservative pro-business and Southern conservative - populist anti-business wings . The New Deal Coalition of 1932 -- 1964 attracted strong support from voters of recent European extraction -- many of whom were Catholics based in the cities . After Franklin D. Roosevelt 's New Deal of the 1930s , the pro-business wing withered outside the South . After the racial turmoil of the 1960s , most Southern whites and many Northern Catholics moved into the Republican Party at the presidential level . The once - powerful labor union element became smaller and less supportive after the 1970s . White Evangelicals and Southerners became heavily Republican at the state and local level in the 1990s . Racial and ethnic minorities in the United States , such as Jewish Americans , Hispanic Americans , Arabic Americans and African Americans , tend to support the Democratic Party much more than they | One of the main goals of the Democratic Party is to achieve | [

Dinosaurs in the series were created using a combination of stop motion animation miniatures , rear projection film effects and occasional hand puppets for close - ups of dinosaur heads . Wesley Eure points out on a commentary track for Land of the Lost 's first season DVD that the Grumpy hand puppet has no hole in the back of its throat , even though it is often seen opening its mouth wide to roar . The series marked a rare example of matting filmed stop - motion sequences with videotape live action , so as to avoid the telltale blue ' fringe ' produced in matting with less exacting processes . Though this occasionally worked very well , the difference in lighting between the video and film sequences sometimes brought inadvertent attention to the limitations of the process . </P> <P> Special effects footage was frequently re-used . Additional visual effects were achieved using manual film overlay techniques , the low - tech ancestor to current motion control photography . </P> <H2> Cast ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Main ( edit ) </H3> <Ul> <Li> Rick Marshall ( Seasons 1 and 2 ) -- Spencer Milligan </Li> <Li> Will Marshall -- Wesley Eure </Li> <Li> Holly Marshall -- Kathy Coleman </Li> <Li> Uncle Jack Marshall ( Season 3 ) -- Ron Harper </Li> <Li> Cha - Ka -- Phillip Paley ( Season 3 ; recurring , seasons 1 - 2 ) </Li> </Ul> <H3> Recurring ( edit ) </H3> <Ul> <Li> Sa -- Sharon Baird ( Seasons 1 and 2 ) </Li> <Li> Ta -- Joe Giamalva ( Season 1 ) and Scutter McKay ( Season 2 ) </Li> <Li> Enik -- Walker Edmiston </Li> <Li> The Zarn -- Marvin Miller ( voice ) and Van Snowden ( body ) ( Season 2 ) </Li> <Li> Malak -- Richard Kiel ( Season 3 ) </Li> <Li> Sleestak Leader -- Jon Locke ( Season 3 ) </Li> <Li> Sleestaks -- Dave Greenwood , Bill Laimbeer , John Lambert , Cleveland Porter , Jack Tingley , Scott Fullerton , Mike Westra , Bill Boyd , David Harris , Clarke Roberts </Li> </Ul> <H2> DVD releases ( edit ) </H2> <P> From 2004 to 2005 , Rhino Entertainment owned the rights to the show , and released seasons one through three , and a complete series package , with several bonus features , including commentaries , on all of the releases .
