Estella (Great Expectations)

Pip spends years as companion to Miss Havisham and , by extension , Estella . He harbours intense love for Estella , though he has been warned that Estella has been brought up by Miss Havisham to inspire unrequited love in the men around her , in order to avenge the latter 's disappointment at being jilted on her wedding day . Estella warns Pip that she can not love him , or anyone . Miss Havisham herself eventually decries this coldness , for Estella is not even able to love her benefactress .

These colorful compounds , known as chromophores , mix with the warmer , lower deck of clouds .

Jupiter

The orange and brown coloration in the clouds of Jupiter are caused by upwelling compounds that change color when they are exposed to ultraviolet light from the Sun . The exact makeup remains uncertain , but the substances are thought to be phosphorus , sulfur or possibly hydrocarbons . These colorful compounds , known as chromophores , mix with the warmer , lower deck of clouds . The zones are formed when rising convection cells form crystallizing ammonia that masks out these lower clouds from view .

The count was in charge of arranging the marriage ; the chief of his entourage , Nikolaus Madruz , a native of Innsbruck , was his courier .

My Last Duchess

Lucrezia was not well educated , and the Medicis could be considered `` nouveau riche '' in comparison to the venerable and distinguished Este family ( Alfonso II d'Este's remark regarding his gift of a `` nine - hundred - years - old name '' clearly indicates that he considered his bride beneath him socially ) . She came with a sizeable dowry , and the couple married in 1558 . He then abandoned her for two years before she died on 21 April 1561 , at age 17 . There was a strong suspicion of poisoning . The Duke then sought the hand of Barbara , eighth daughter of the Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand I and Anna of Bohemia and Hungary and the sister of the Count of Tyrol , Ferdinand II . The count was in charge of arranging the marriage ; the chief of his entourage , Nikolaus Madruz , a native of Innsbruck , was his courier . Madruz is presumably the listener in the poem .

Planet of the Apes

In 2005 , screenwriters Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver developed a concept for a new Planet of the Apes film , eventually titled Rise of the Planet of the Apes . Inspired by news articles on apes raised as humans and advances in genetics , Jaffa conceived an idea for a film about a genetically enhanced chimp raised in a human household . He and Silver pitched the concept to Fox as a way to reboot the Apes franchise by reinventing the story of the chimpanzee Caesar , the lead character of Conquest . Fox was impressed and bought the pitch , but development struggled for five years as the production cycled through scripts , writers , directors , and producers . In 2010 , producers Peter Chernin and Dylan Clark of Chernin Entertainment stepped in to move the film forward , retaining Jaffa and Silver as writers .

Clear evidence of a water - powered paper mill dates to 1282 in the Spanish Kingdom of Aragon .

History of paper

Clear evidence of a water - powered paper mill dates to 1282 in the Spanish Kingdom of Aragon . A decree by the Christian king Peter III addresses the establishment of a royal `` molendinum '' , a proper hydraulic mill , in the paper manufacturing centre of Xàtiva . The crown innovation originates from the Muslim Mudéjar community in the Moorish quarter of Xàtiva , where paper mills were a Muslim Mudejar operated enterprise . However , it appears to be resented by sections of the local Muslim papermakering community ; the document guarantees them the right to continue the way of traditional papermaking by beating the pulp manually and grants them the right to be exempted from work in the new mill . Paper making centers began to multiply in the late 13th century in Italy , reducing the price of paper to one sixth of parchment and then falling further ; paper making centers reached Germany a century later .

The resistance organized by the republicans within Paris under Victor Hugo was soon subdued by the intoxicated soldiers . The more serious resistance in the départements was crushed by declaring a state of siege and by the `` mixed commissions .

List of Fullmetal Alchemist characters

`` Father '' ( お 父様 , Otō - sama ) is the creator of all homunculi using flawed aspects of his personality , and is the series ' central antagonist . He was originally known as `` The Dwarf in the Flask '' ( フラスコ の 中 の 小 人 , Furasuko no Naka no Kobito ) or `` Homunculus '' ( ホムンクルス , Homunkurusu ) , a shadowy , charismatic creature created eight centuries ago in Cselkcess ( クセルクセス , Kuserukusesu , `` Xerxes '' in the English anime ) under the commission of its king to obtain infinite knowledge . Confined within a flask where it can thrive , Homunculus formed an attachment to the young slave boy whose blood had been used in his creation , naming the lad Van Hohenheim , educating him and enabling him to rise up the social hierarchy . However , Homunculus grew envious of the human race , jealous of their mutual emotional support for each other whilst he grew lonely , being the only one of his kind . This envy caused Homunculus to lose sight of his own gifts and talents , eventually losing much of his self - confidence , and as he disliked this low self - esteem of his , he filled himself up with hubris . Playing on the vain King 's desire to become immortal , Homunculus tricked the king into creating a country - wide transmutation circle for the creation of a Philosopher 's Stone , whose necessary ingredient is the souls of several living human beings . Once activated , Homunculus ensured that he and the unaware Hohenheim were in the center , absorbing the souls of the population from Cselkcess between them . During the process , Homunculus used Hohenheim 's blood within him to create a humanoid husk body to serve as his mobile vessel before parting ways .

Note , these fusions are fragments that contain a nuclear localization signal and ubiquitination sites for degradation , but are not functional proteins .

Cell cycle

Pioneering work by Atsushi Miyawaki and coworkers developed the fluorescent ubiquitination - based cell cycle indicator ( FUCCI ) , which enables fluorescence imaging of the cell cycle . Originally , a green fluorescent protein , mAG , was fused to hGem ( 1 / 110 ) and an orange fluorescent protein ( mKO ) was fused to hCdt1 ( 30 / 120 ) . Note , these fusions are fragments that contain a nuclear localization signal and ubiquitination sites for degradation , but are not functional proteins . The green fluorescent protein is made during the S , G , or M phase and degraded during the G or G phase , while the orange fluorescent protein is made during the G or G phase and destroyed during the S , G , or M phase . A far - red and near - infrared FUCCI was developed using a cyanobacteria - derived fluorescent protein ( smURFP ) and a bacteriophytochrome - derived fluorescent protein ( movie found at this link ) .

Peking opera

The Jing ( 净 ) is a painted face male role . Depending on the repertoire of the particular troupe , he will play either primary or secondary roles . This type of role will entail a forceful character , so a Jing must have a strong voice and be able to exaggerate gestures . Peking opera boasts 15 basic facial patterns , but there are over 1000 specific variations . Each design is unique to a specific character . The patterns and coloring are thought to be derived from traditional Chinese color symbolism and divination on the lines of a person 's face , which is said to reveal personality . Easily recognizable examples of coloring include red , which denotes uprightness and loyalty , white , which represents evil or crafty characters , and black , which is given to characters of soundness and integrity . Three main types of Jing roles are often seen . These include tongchui , roles that heavily involve singing , jiazi , roles with less emphasis on singing and more on physical performance , and wujing , martial and acrobatic roles .

Active citizenship was granted to men who were French , at least 25 years old , paid taxes equal to three days work , and could not be defined as servants ( Thouret ) .

Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen

While the French Revolution provided rights to a larger portion of the population , there remained a distinction between those who obtained the political rights in the Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen and those who did not . Those who were deemed to hold these political rights were called active citizens . Active citizenship was granted to men who were French , at least 25 years old , paid taxes equal to three days work , and could not be defined as servants ( Thouret ) . This meant that at the time of the Declaration only male property owners held these rights . The deputies in the National Assembly believed that only those who held tangible interests in the nation could make informed political decisions . This distinction directly affects articles 6 , 12 , 14 , and 15 of the Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen as each of these rights is related to the right to vote and to participate actively in the government . With the decree of 29 October 1789 , the term active citizen became embedded in French politics .

Driver License Compact

The Driver License Compact came into existence with Nevada becoming the first member in 1960 . Organizations in the Western States such as governors came together to cooperate on traffic safety . Under the Beamer Resolution ( `` Interstate Compacts for Highway Safety Resolution '' ) , Public Law 85 - 684 , enacted on August 20 , 1958 , 72 Stat. 635 ( named for Rep. John V. Beamer , R - Indiana ) , states were automatically given permission to form compacts in the areas of traffic safety . Originally , the Driver License Compact dealt with dangerous driving violations such as drunk driving , reckless driving , commission of a felony involving a motor vehicle and others . Later on , minor violations were included as well . Quite a few states joined in the 1960s but it languished in the 1970s and part of the 1980s . In the late 1980s , there was a push by the AAMVA to get states to join and in the early to mid 1990s , quite a few states joined .

Forensic science

James Marsh was the first to apply this new science to the art of forensics . He was called by the prosecution in a murder trial to give evidence as a chemist in 1832 . The defendant , John Bodle , was accused of poisoning his grandfather with arsenic - laced coffee . Marsh performed the standard test by mixing a suspected sample with hydrogen sulfide and hydrochloric acid . While he was able to detect arsenic as yellow arsenic trisulfide , when it was shown to the jury it had deteriorated , allowing the suspect to be acquitted due to reasonable doubt .

Sagrada Família

Relying solely on private donations , Sagrada Familia 's construction progressed slowly and was interrupted by the Spanish Civil War , only to resume intermittent progress in the 1950s . Since commencing construction in 1882 , advancements in technologies such as computer aided design and computerised numerical control ( CNC ) have enabled faster progress and construction passed the midpoint in 2010 . However , some of the project 's greatest challenges remain , including the construction of ten more spires , each symbolising an important Biblical figure in the New Testament . It is anticipated that the building can be completed by 2026 -- the centenary of Gaudí 's death .

Avengers: Infinity War

A second trailer was released on March 16 , 2018 , which earned over 1 million views on YouTube in less than three hours after it was released . Alyssa Rosenberg of The Washington Post was not overly enthused about another superhero film having `` special - effects - heavy villains , or the sight of yet another mysterious object hanging over the Manhattan skyline , '' but felt the trailer made her realize `` that I 'm actually looking forward to seeing ( the characters of the MCU ) get to know each other . '' Josh Spiegel of The Hollywood Reporter agreed with Rosenberg about the potential for the character interactions , noting the trailer `` suggests that some of these meetings are going to keep up the playful tone of recent MCU movies '' . He continued , `` It is arguably gimmicky to pile up all of the crossover - style introductions or combinations of heroes in a movie like this , like a superpowered version of two well liked TV shows crossing over primarily in the hopes of getting more viewers to pay attention . But the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe is built on a foundation of these heroes existing within the same space , so their eventual meetings have a level of anticipation that exceeds that of watching them face off against Thanos . '' The second trailer was viewed 179 million times in the first 24 hours , the third-most viewed trailer in that time period , behind the first trailer for the film and It , while also becoming the biggest release for a second trailer , surpassing Beauty and the Beast ( 128 million views ) . On November 20 , 2018 , Little , Brown and Company will publish Marvel 's Avengers : Infinity War : Thanos -- Titan Consumed , written by Barry Lyga . Despite not existing within Marvel Studios ' MCU cannon , the novel explores the origins of Thanos before the events of the film . Lyga noted he spoke with Marvel Studios to get an `` outline of who Thanos is and what he means to the movies '' and `` was given great latitude and a free hand ( in some areas of the story ) , while in others I had to tip - toe very carefully through the MCU .

States' rights

The balance of federal powers and those powers held by the states as defined in the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution was first addressed in the case of McCulloch v. Maryland ( 1819 ) . The Court 's decision by Chief Justice John Marshall asserted that the laws adopted by the federal government , when exercising its constitutional powers , are generally paramount over any conflicting laws adopted by state governments . After McCulloch , the primary legal issues in this area concerned the scope of Congress ' constitutional powers , and whether the states possess certain powers to the exclusion of the federal government , even if the Constitution does not explicitly limit them to the states .

Chou characters wear special face paint , called xiaohualian , that differs from that of Jing characters .

Peking opera

The Chou ( 丑 ) is a male clown role . The Chou usually plays secondary roles in a troupe . Indeed , most studies of Peking opera classify the Chou as a minor role . Chou roles can be divided into Wen Chou , civilian roles such as merchants and jailers , and Wu Chou , minor military roles . The Wu Chou is one of the most demanding in Peking opera , because of its combination of comic acting , acrobatics , and a strong voice . Chou characters are generally amusing and likable , if a bit foolish . Their costumes range from simple for characters of lower status to elaborate , perhaps overly so , for high status characters . Chou characters wear special face paint , called xiaohualian , that differs from that of Jing characters . The defining characteristic of this type of face paint is a small patch of white chalk around the nose . This can represent either a mean and secretive nature or a quick wit . Originally , there were five roles in Beijing Opera , but the last role `` Mo '' became a part of `` Chou '' .

Because there are no cells to detect light on the optic disc , the corresponding part of the field of vision is invisible .

Blind spot (vision)

A blind spot , scotoma , is an obscuration of the visual field . A particular blind spot known as the physiological blind spot , `` blind point '' , or punctum caecum in medical literature , is the place in the visual field that corresponds to the lack of light - detecting photoreceptor cells on the optic disc of the retina where the optic nerve passes through the optic disc . Because there are no cells to detect light on the optic disc , the corresponding part of the field of vision is invisible . Some process in our brains interpolates the blind spot based on surrounding detail and information from the other eye , so we do not normally perceive the blind spot .

Jaq seems to be one of the leaders of the mice , planning strategies to avoid the cat , sneak food , and help Cinderella with her ball gown . The other mice gladly follow his lead . Jaq is thin , with scruffy hair , and speaks a fast kind of pidgin English . Gus appears in the first scene of the film , trapped shivering in a cage where Jaq finds him and brings Cinderella to rescue him . Cinderella names him `` Octavius , '' and calls him `` Gus '' for short . This is an example of an inside joke among the writers and ( some ) viewers of the movie . Gus is actually short for Augustus . In ancient Rome , Octavius was renamed Augustus when he became Caesar . Hence Octavius - Augustus - Gus . Jaq explains the situation to Gus , that Cinderella wants to help him , and Gus catches on and joins the mouse troop . Gus has a large belly that pokes out of his yellow shirt and seems to be a bit slow on the pickup , but brave in a pinch , and speaks even more broken English than Jaq , who calls him `` Gus - Gus '' .

However , once 4Kids realized One Piece was not appropriate for their intended demographic , the company decided to edit it into a more child - oriented series until they had an opportunity to legally drop the license . Kirk said the experience of producing One Piece `` ruined the company 's reputation '' . Since then , 4Kids established a stricter set of guidelines , checks , and balances to determine which anime the company acquires .

The Louisiana Purchase occurred during the term of the third President of the United States , Thomas Jefferson .

Louisiana Purchase

The Kingdom of France controlled the Louisiana territory from 1699 until it was ceded to Spain in 1762 . In 1800 , Napoleon , then the First Consul of the French Republic , hoping to re-establish an empire in North America , regained ownership of Louisiana . However , France 's failure to put down the revolt in Saint - Domingue , coupled with the prospect of renewed warfare with the United Kingdom , prompted Napoleon to sell Louisiana to the United States to fund his military . The Americans originally sought to purchase only the port city of New Orleans and its adjacent coastal lands , but quickly accepted the bargain . The Louisiana Purchase occurred during the term of the third President of the United States , Thomas Jefferson . Before the purchase was finalized , the decision faced Federalist Party opposition ; they argued that it was unconstitutional to acquire any territory . Jefferson agreed that the U.S. Constitution did not contain explicit provisions for acquiring territory , but he asserted that his constitutional power to negotiate treaties was sufficient .

Prior to the general adoption of sterling silver as the standard of purity in 1868 , silver was generally obtained from the melting of coins .

Silver hallmarks

In the early United States , no national assaying system was adopted , although the city of Baltimore did maintain its own assay office between 1814 and 1830 . Prior to the general adoption of sterling silver as the standard of purity in 1868 , silver was generally obtained from the melting of coins . Since these could vary considerably in purity , from around . 750 millesimal fineness to around . 900 , silver known as `` coin silver '' varies in purity . Silver at that time was sometimes marked `` COIN '' or `` PURE COIN '' , but can also be without a standard mark altogether . After the adoption of the sterling standard , pieces were marked with `` STERLING '' , the number `` 925 '' or the notation `` 925 / 1000 '' .

Because irreversible injury occurs within 2 -- 4 hours of the infarction , there is a limited window of time available for reperfusion to work .

Reperfusion therapy

Thrombolytic therapy is indicated for the treatment of STEMI -- if it can begin within 12 hours of the onset of symptoms , and the person is eligible based on exclusion criteria , and a coronary angioplasty is not immediately available . Thrombolysis is most effective in the first 2 hours . After 12 hours , the risk of intracranial bleeding associated with thrombolytic therapy outweighs any benefit . Because irreversible injury occurs within 2 -- 4 hours of the infarction , there is a limited window of time available for reperfusion to work .

Purkinje fibers

During the ventricular contraction portion of the cardiac cycle , the Purkinje fibers carry the contraction impulse from both the left and right bundle branch to the myocardium of the ventricles . This causes the muscle tissue of the ventricles to contract and generate force to eject blood out of the heart , either to the pulmonary circulation from the right ventricle or to the systemic circulation from the left ventricle .

Education in South Korea

High schools in South Korea teach students for three years , from first grade ( age 15 -- 17 ) to third grade ( age 17 -- 19 ) , and students commonly graduate at age 18 or 19 . High school students are commonly expected to study increasingly long hours each year moving toward graduation , to become competitive and be able to enter attractive universities , such as SKY ( Seoul National , Korea , and Yonsei Universities ) or SeoKaPo ( Seoul National University , KAIST , POSTECH ) , which are top universities in Korea that almost all parents and teachers want students to enter . Many high school students wake and leave home in the morning at 5 am . When the school is over at 4 pm , they go to a studying room in the school or to a library to study instead of going home . This is called ' Yaja ' , which literally means ' evening self - study ' . They do n't need to go home to eat dinner since most schools provide paid dinner for students . After finishing yaja ( usually ends at 10 pm , but later than 11 pm at some schools ) , they return home after studying , then return to specialty study schools ( which are called Hagwon ) often till 2 am , from Monday to Friday . In addition , they often study on weekends .

Dyrham Park

</P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> Royal licence to empark Dyrham granted by Henry VIII to William Denys , Esquire of the Body , 5 June 1511 . Attached is a rare perfect example of the Great Seal of Henry VIII . Collection of Dyrham Park , National Trust <P> The Manor of Dyrham has been recorded since the Domesday Book of 1086 , when there were 34 households . The first lord of the manor to be resident may have been William Denys , who was an Esquire of the Body to Henry VIII and later High Sheriff of Gloucestershire . He was granted the licence to empark 500 acres ( 200 ha ) of Dyrham in 1511 , although not all of this area was enclosed . This meant that he could enclose the land with a wall or hedgebank and maintain a captive herd of deer within the park , over which he had exclusive hunting rights ; the name `` Dyrham '' derives from the Anglo - Saxon word dirham , an enclosure for deer . The estate was sold to the Wynter family in 1571 and Sir George Wynter was allowed to empark further land in 1620 . In 1689 the estate was acquired through marriage by William Blathwayt , who was Secretary at War to William III . He retained the existing Tudor building and expanded it in stages . The west front of 1692 was commissioned from the Huguenot architect , Samuel Hauduroy , and includes an Italianate double staircase leading from the terrace to the grounds . In 1698 a stable block with space for 26 horses , and servants ' quarters above , around a courtyard was added . The east front of 1704 was designed by William Talman , architect of Chatsworth . The construction of the east wing included demolition of the remains of the original Tudor house and the addition of a statue of an eagle on the roof .

When electricity demand is low , the Lewiston units can operate as pumps to transport water from the lower bay back up to the plant 's reservoir , allowing this water to be used again during the daytime when electricity use peaks .

Niagara Falls

In 1961 , when the Niagara Falls hydroelectric project went online , it was the largest hydropower facility in the Western world . Today , Niagara is still the largest electricity producer in New York state , with a generating capacity of 2.4 gigawatts ( million kilowatts ) . Up to 375,000 U.S. gallons ( 1,420 m ) of water a second is diverted from the Niagara River through conduits under the city of Niagara Falls to the Lewiston and Robert Moses power plants . Currently between 50 % and 75 % of the Niagara River 's flow is diverted via four huge tunnels that arise far upstream from the waterfalls . The water then passes through hydroelectric turbines that supply power to nearby areas of Canada and the United States before returning to the river well past the falls . This water spins turbines that power generators , converting mechanical energy into electrical energy . When electricity demand is low , the Lewiston units can operate as pumps to transport water from the lower bay back up to the plant 's reservoir , allowing this water to be used again during the daytime when electricity use peaks . During peak electrical demand , the same Lewiston pumps are reversed and actually become generators , similar to those at the Moses plant .

The song is reportedly about Swift 's ex , Jake Gyllenhaal , as the two had broken up in January 2011 but had been seen on a date a few days later .

We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together

After writing Speak Now ( 2010 ) entirely solo , Swift opted to collaborate with different songwriters and producers for Red . Thus , she called Max Martin and Shellback , two songwriters and producers whose work she admired , to discuss a possible collaboration . The trio conceived the concept for `` We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together '' shortly after a friend of Swift 's ex-boyfriend walked into the recording studio and spoke of rumors he heard that Swift and her former flame were reuniting . After the friend left , Martin and Shellback asked Swift to elaborate on the details of the relationship , which she described as `` break up , get back together , break up , get back together , just , ugh , the worst '' . When Martin suggested that they write about the incident . Swift began playing the guitar and singing , `` We are never ever ... '' , and the song flowed rapidly afterwards . She described the process as one of the most humorous experiences she had while recording , and said the musical partners matched her expectations . An audio clip of her sarcastically speaking about breakups can be heard before the final chorus . The song is reportedly about Swift 's ex , Jake Gyllenhaal , as the two had broken up in January 2011 but had been seen on a date a few days later . After the release of the music video , more clues linking the song to Gyllenhaal emerged , with the actor looking like Gyllenhaal , the actor in the video giving her a scarf as Gyllenhaal had reportedly done for Swift and a bracelet Swift wears in the video that is speculated to look similar to that of which Gyllenhaal was rumored to have given Swift for her birthday .
