text,query,summary "aarhus (, us also , danish: [ˈɒːˌhuˀs] (listen); officially spelled århus from 1948 until 1 january 2011) is the second-largest city in denmark and the seat of aarhus municipality.it is located on the eastern shore of jutland in the kattegat sea and approximately 187 kilometres (116 mi) northwest of copenhagen.dating back to the late 8th century, aarhus was founded as a harbour settlement at the mouth of the aarhus river and quickly became a trade hub.the first christian church was built here around the year 900 and later in the viking age the town was fortified with defensive ramparts.the bishopric of aarhus grew steadily stronger and more prosperous, building several religious institutions in the town during the early middle ages.trade continued to improve, although it was not until 1441 that aarhus was granted market town privileges, and the population of aarhus remained relatively stable until the 19th century.the city began to grow significantly as trade prospered in the mid-18th century, but not until the mid-19th century did the industrial revolution bring real growth in population.the first railway line in jutland was built here in 1862.in 1928, the first university in jutland was founded in aarhus and today it is a university city and the largest centre for trade, services, industry, and tourism in jutland.aarhus cathedral is the longest cathedral in denmark with a total length of 93 m (305 ft).the church of our lady (vor frue kirke) was originally built in 1060, making it the oldest stone church in scandinavia.the city hall, designed by arne jacobsen and erik møller, was completed in 1941 in a modern functionalist style.aarhus theatre, the largest provincial theatre in denmark, opposite the cathedral on bispetorvet, was built by hack kampmann in the art nouveau style and completed in 1916.musikhuset aarhus (concert hall) and det jyske musikkonservatorium (royal academy of music, aarhus/aalborg) are also of note, as are its museums including the open-air museum den gamle by, the art museum aros aarhus kunstmuseum, the moesgård museum and the women's museum kvindemuseet.the city's major cultural institutions include den gamle by, aros aarhus kunstmuseum, the moesgård museum, gender museum denmark, musikhuset aarhus and aarhus theatre.known as smilets by (lit.city of smiles) it is the danish city with the youngest demographics and home to scandinavia's largest university, aarhus university.commercially, the city is the principal container port in the country, and major danish companies such as vestas, arla foods, salling group, and jysk have their headquarters there.it is a compound of the two words ár, genitive of á ('river', modern danish å), and oss ('mouth', in modern icelandic this word, spelt ós, is still used for 'river delta').in valdemar's census book (1231) the city was called arus, and in icelandic it was known as aros, later written as aars.with the danish spelling reform of 1948, 'aa' was changed to 'å'.some danish cities resisted the change but aarhus city council opted to change the name.in 2010, the city council voted to change the name back from århus to aarhus again with effect from 1 january 2011.it is still grammatically correct to write geographical names with the letter å and local councils are allowed to use the aa spelling as an alternative and most newspapers and public institutions will accept either.some official authorities such as the danish language committee, publisher of the danish orthographic dictionary, still retain århus as the main name, providing aarhus as a second option, in brackets and some institutions are still using århus explicitly in their official name, such as the local newspaper århus stiftstidende and the schools århus kunstakademi and århus statsgymnasium.","aarhus | leadername | jacob bundsgaard","no related information" "dublin (; irish: baile átha cliath, pronounced [ˈbˠalʲə aːhə ˈclʲiə] or [ˌbʲlʲaː ˈclʲiə]) is the capital and largest city of ireland.on a bay at the mouth of the river liffey, it is in the province of leinster, bordered on the south by the dublin mountains, a part of the wicklow mountains range.at the 2016 census it had a population of 1,173,179, while the 2022 census recorded that county dublin as a whole had a population of 1,458,154, and that the population of the greater dublin area was over 2 million, or roughly 40% of the republic of ireland's total population.a settlement was established in the area by the gaels during or before the 7th century, followed by the vikings.as the kingdom of dublin grew, it became ireland's principal settlement by the 12th century anglo-norman invasion of ireland.the city expanded rapidly from the 17th century and was briefly the second largest in the british empire and sixth largest in western europe after the acts of union in 1800.following independence in 1922, dublin became the capital of the irish free state, renamed ireland in 1937.dublin is a centre for education, arts and culture, administration, and industry.as of 2018, the city was listed by the globalization and world cities research network (gawc) as a global city, with a ranking of 'alpha minus', which places it as one of the top thirty cities in the world.this tidal pool was located where the river poddle entered the liffey, on the site of the castle gardens at the rear of dublin castle.in modern irish the name is duibhlinn, and irish rhymes from county dublin show that in dublin leinster irish it was pronounced duílinn [ˈd̪ˠiːlʲiɲ].the original pronunciation is preserved in the names for the city in other languages such as old english difelin, old norse dyflin, modern icelandic dyflinn and modern manx divlyn as well as welsh dulyn and breton dulenn.other localities in ireland also bear the name duibhlinn, variously anglicised as devlin, divlin and difflin.historically, scribes using the gaelic script wrote bh with a dot over the b, rendering duḃlinn or duiḃlinn.those without knowledge of irish omitted the dot, spelling the name as dublin.variations on the name are also found in traditionally gaelic-speaking areas of scotland (gàidhealtachd, cognate with irish gaeltacht), such as an linne dhubh ('the black pool'), which is part of loch linnhe.it is now thought that the viking settlement was preceded by a christian ecclesiastical settlement known as duibhlinn, from which dyflin took its name.beginning in the 9th and 10th centuries, there were two settlements where the modern city stands.the viking settlement of about 841, dyflin, and a gaelic settlement, áth cliath ('ford of hurdles') further up the river, at the present-day father mathew bridge (also known as dublin bridge), at the bottom of church street.baile átha cliath, meaning 'town of the hurdled ford', is the common name for the city in modern irish.áth cliath is a place name referring to a fording point of the river liffey near father mathew bridge.baile átha cliath was an early christian monastery, believed to have been in the area of aungier street, currently occupied by whitefriar street carmelite church.there are other towns of the same name, such as àth cliath in east ayrshire, scotland, which is anglicised as hurlford.the city is also referred to as bleá cliath and blea cliath in irish, particularly when spoken.these are contracted versions of baile átha cliath.further traps were discovered closer to the old settlement of the city of dublin on the south quays near st. james's gate which also indicate mesolithic human activity.the writings of ptolemy (the greco-roman astronomer and cartographer) in about 140 ad provide possibly the earliest reference to a settlement near dublin.","dublin | ispartof | leinster","on a bay at the mouth of the river liffey, it is in the province of leinster, bordered on the south by the dublin mountains, a part of the wicklow mountains range.in modern irish the name is duibhlinn, and irish rhymes from county dublin show that in dublin leinster irish it was pronounced duílinn [ˈd̪ˠiːlʲiɲ]."

emergent land features on atolls can be called islets, skerries, cays or keys.an island in a river or a lake island may be called an eyot or ait, and a small island off the coast may be called a holm.sedimentary islands in the ganges delta are called chars.a grouping of geographically or geologically related islands, such as the philippines, is referred to as an archipelago.there are two main types of islands in the sea: continental islands and oceanic islands.there are also artificial islands (man-made islands).there are about 900,000 official islands in the world.this number consists of all the officially-reported islands of each country.the total number of islands in the world is unknown.there may be hundreds of thousands of tiny islands that are unknown and uncounted.the number of sea islands in the world is estimated to be more than 200,000.the total area of the world's sea islands is approx.9,963,000 sq km, which is similar to the area of canada and accounts for roughly 1/15 (or 6.7%) of the total land area of earth.dutch eiland ('island'), german eiland ('small island')).however, the spelling of the word was modified in the 15th century because of a false etymology caused by an incorrect association with the etymologically unrelated old french loanword isle, which itself comes from the latin word insula.old english ieg is actually a cognate of swedish ö and german aue, and related to latin aqua (water).continents are often considered to be the largest landmass of a particular continental plate; this holds true for australia, which sits on its own continental lithosphere and tectonic plate (the australian plate).by contrast, islands are usually seen as being extensions of the oceanic crust (e.g.volcanic islands), or as belonging to a continental plate containing a larger landmass (continental islands); the latter is the case of greenland, which sits on the north american plate.examples are borneo, java, sumatra, sakhalin, taiwan and hainan off asia; new guinea, tasmania, and kangaroo island off australia; great britain, ireland, and sicily off europe; greenland, newfoundland, long island, and sable island off north america; and barbados, the falkland islands, and trinidad off south america.examples are madagascar and socotra off africa, new caledonia, new zealand, and some of the seychelles.if this island has a seashore as well as being encircled by two river systems, it becomes what might be called a subcontinental island.the one formed by wollaston lake is very large, about 2,000,000 km2 (770,000 sq mi).this includes: barrier islands, which are accumulations of sand deposited by sea currents on the continental shelves fluvial or alluvial islands formed in river deltas or midstream within large rivers.while some are transitory and may disappear if the volume or speed of the current changes, others are stable and long-lived.other definitions limit the term to only refer to islands with no past geological connections to a continental landmass.the vast majority are volcanic in origin, such as saint helena in the south atlantic ocean.the few oceanic islands that are not volcanic are tectonic in origin and arise where plate movements have lifted up the ocean floor above the surface.examples are the saint peter and saint paul archipelago in the north atlantic ocean and macquarie island in the south pacific ocean.these islands arise from volcanoes where the subduction of one plate under another is occurring.examples are the aleutian islands, the mariana islands, and most of tonga in the pacific ocean.","finland | language | sami languages","no related information" "adirondack regional airport (iata: slk, icao: kslk, faa lid: slk) is a public use airport located four

east, austria and switzerland to the south, and france, luxembourg, belgium, and the netherlands to the west.the nation's capital and most populous city is berlin and its main financial centre is frankfurt; the largest urban area is the ruhr.various germanic tribes have inhabited the northern parts of modern germany since classical antiquity.a region named germania was documented before ad 100.in 962, the kingdom of germany formed the bulk of the holy roman empire.during the 16th century, northern german regions became the centre of the protestant reformation.following the napoleonic wars and the dissolution of the holy roman empire in 1806, the german confederation was formed in 1815.formal unification of germany into the modern nation-state was commenced on 18 august 1866 with the north german confederation treaty establishing the prussia-led north german confederation later transformed in 1871 into the german empire.after world war i and the german revolution of 1918–1919, the empire was in turn transformed into the semi-presidential weimar republic.the nazi seizure of power in 1933 led to the establishment of a totalitarian dictatorship, world war ii, and the holocaust.after the end of world war ii in europe and a period of allied occupation, in 1949, germany as a whole was organized into two separate polities with limited sovereignty: the federal republic of germany, generally known as west germany, and the german democratic republic, east germany, while berlin de jure continued its four power status.the federal republic of germany was a founding member of the european economic community and the european union, while the german democratic republic was a communist eastern bloc state and member of the warsaw pact.after the fall of communist led-government in east germany, german reunification saw the former east german states join the federal republic of germany on 3 october 1990—becoming a federal parliamentary republic.germany has been described as a great power with a strong economy; it has the largest economy in europe, the world's fourth-largest economy by nominal gdp and the fifth-largest by ppp.as a global power in industrial, scientific and technological sectors, it is both the world's third-largest exporter and importer.as a developed country it offers social security, a universal health care system and a tuition-free university education.germany is a member of the united nations, the european union, the nato, the council of europe, the g7, the g20 and the oecd.it has the third-greatest number of unesco world heritage sites.the german term deutschland, originally diutisciu land ('the german lands') is derived from deutsch (cf.dutch), descended from old high german diutisc 'of the people' (from diot or diota 'people'), originally used to distinguish the language of the common people from latin and its romance descendants.this in turn descends from proto-germanic *þiudiskaz 'of the people' (see also the latinised form theodiscus), derived from *þeudō, descended from proto-indo-european *tewtéh₂- 'people', from which the word teutons also originates.ancient humans were present in germany at least 600,000 years ago.the first non-modern human fossil (the neanderthal) was discovered in the neander valley.similarly dated evidence of modern humans has been found in the swabian jura, including 42,000-year-old flutes which are the oldest musical instruments ever found, the 40,000-year-old lion man, and the 35,000-year-old venus of hohle fels.","germany | leadername | stanislaw tillich","no

metropolitan area in the world.japan has the world's highest life expectancy, though it is experiencing a population decline.japan has been inhabited since the upper paleolithic period (30,000 bc).between the 4th and 9th centuries, the kingdoms of japan became unified under an emperor and the imperial court based in heian-kyō.beginning in the 12th century, political power was held by a series of military dictators (shōgun) and feudal lords (daimyō) and enforced by a class of warrior nobility (samurai).after a century-long period of civil war, the country was reunified in 1603 under the tokugawa shogunate, which enacted an isolationist foreign policy.in 1854, a united states fleet forced japan to open trade to the west, which led to the end of the shogunate and the restoration of imperial power in 1868.in the meiji period, the empire of japan adopted a western-modeled constitution and pursued a program of industrialization and modernization.amidst a rise in militarism and overseas colonization, japan invaded china in 1937 and entered world war ii as an axis power in 1941.after suffering defeat in the pacific war and two atomic bombings, japan surrendered in 1945 and came under a seven-year allied occupation, during which it adopted a new constitution.under the 1947 constitution, japan has maintained a unitary parliamentary constitutional monarchy with a bicameral legislature, the national diet.japan is a developed country and a great power.its economy is the world's third-largest by nominal gdp and the fourth-largest by ppp, with its per capita income ranking at 36th highest in the world.although japan has renounced its right to declare war, the country maintains self-defense forces that rank as one of the world's strongest militaries.a global leader in the automotive, robotics and electronics industries, the country has made significant contributions to science and technology.it is part of multiple major international and intergovernmental institutions.japan is considered a cultural superpower as the culture of japan is well known around the world, including its art, cuisine, film, music, and popular culture, which encompasses prominent manga, anime and video game industries.before 日本 was adopted in the early 8th century, the country was known in china as wa (倭, changed in japan around 757 to 和) and in japan by the endonym yamato.nippon, the original sino-japanese reading of the characters, is favored for official uses, including on banknotes and postage stamps.nihon is typically used in everyday speech and reflects shifts in japanese phonology during the edo period.the characters 日本 mean 'sun origin', which is the source of the popular western epithet 'land of the rising sun'.the name 'japan' is based on chinese pronunciations of 日本 and was introduced to european languages through early trade.","japan | leadername | tarō asō","no related information" "the guiana space centre (french: centre spatial guyanais; csg), also called europe's spaceport, is a european spaceport to the northwest of kourou in french guiana, a region of france in south america.kourou is located approximately 310 mi (500 km) north of the equator at a latitude of 5°.in operation since 1968, it is a suitable location for a spaceport because of its equatorial location and open sea to the east.the european space agency (esa), the european union agency for the space programme (euspa), the french space agency cnes (national centre for space studies), the space agency of the republic of azerbaijan (azercosmos) and the commercial company arianespace conduct launches from kourou.it was used by the esa to send supplies to the international space station using the automated transfer vehicle.in 1975, france offered to share kourou with the esa.commercial launches are also bought by non-european companies.esa pays two-thirds of the spaceport's annual budget and has also financed the upgrades made during the development of the ariane launchers.on 4 april 2017, the center was occupied by 30 labour unions and indigenous peoples leaders in the midst of the 2017 social unrest in french guiana, but was taken back on 24 april 2017.one of the primary benefits of this spaceport is its proximity to the equator, which makes it more efficient, requiring substantially less energy, to launch spacecraft into an near-equatorial, geostationary orbit compared to launching from spaceports at higher latitudes.additionally, the centre's location adjacent to the open sea to the east reduces the potential risk of rocket stages and debris from launch failures falling on or near human settlements, which enhances safety during spaceflight activities.furthermore, rockets typically launch towards the east to take advantage of earth's rotation and the angular momentum it provides.the near-equatorial location of the guiana space centre offers an advantage for launches to low-inclination or geostationary earth orbits, as rockets can be launched into orbits with an inclination of as low as 6°.in contrast, a rocket launched from cape canaveral space force station, with a latitude of 28.5°, can only be launched to an inclination of 28.5°, requiring a significant amount of propellant to change the inclination.the location of the guiana space centre provides benefits for launching spacecraft into low-inclination or geostationary earth orbits.rockets of similar size to those used at other spaceports to place satellites into geostationary transfer orbit (gto), such as the proton and ariane 5 rockets, can send similar payloads to a low earth orbit (leo).for example, the proton rocket, launched from high latitudes in russia, can only send 6,270 kg to gto, while the kourou-launched ariane 5 can send more than 10,000 kg to gto.one europa-ii was launched from the site in 1971, which ended in failure due to a guidance problem, before the program was cancelled.the pad at giunana was demolished and subsequently rebuilt as the first launch complex for ariane as ela (ensemble de lancement ariane).redesignated later as ela-1, it was used for ariane 1 and ariane 2 and 3 launches until being retired in 1989.in november 2001, it was refurbished again for the vega rocket and renamed elv (ensemble de lancement vega).the first launch was on 13 february 2012.before 1988, although purpose-built for ariane 4, the pad hosted an ariane-2 and two ariane-3 launches.the complex consisted of two areas: the launcher preparation zone and the launch pad, separated by one kilometre, allowing a launcher to be assembled in the preparation zone while another launch from the pad.a mobile service tower at the launch pad provided a protected environment for payload installation and final preparation of the rocket.","guiana space centre | headquarter | kourou french guiana","the guiana space centre (french: centre spatial guyanais; csg), also called europe's spaceport, is a european spaceport to the

"curitiba-president afonso pena international airport (iata: cwb, icao: sbct) is the main airport serving curitiba, located in municipality of são josé dos pinhais, in the state of paraná.it is named after afonso pena (1847–1909), the 6th president of brazil.it is operated by ccr.however, since its construction was completed only in 1945, shortly before the end of the war, afonso pena never saw heavy military movement.in 1946, most of its movement comprised civil operations.the original passenger terminal was in use until 1959 when a new terminal was built.this second terminal is today used for cargo operations.in 1996, the present passenger terminal was built.the main problem of the airport are the unstable weather conditions of the region, particularly fog and smog in the morning hours of winter and the fact that the auxiliary runway 11/29 is too small and plagued with old equipment.there are also plans to upgrade runway 15/33 from an ils cat ii runway to ils cat iii.since the bottleneck for the airport is the cargo capacity, the main runway was lengthened in 2008 to allow cargo flights to operate with greater loads and the cargo terminal was upgraded.on 31 august 2009, infraero unveiled a brl30 million (usd16 million; eur11 million) investment plan to upgrade afonso pena international airport focusing on the preparations for the 2014 fifa world cup which were held in brazil, curitiba being one of the venue cities.the investment included the enlargement of the apron and implementation of taxiways.the terminal is 45,000 m2, has 14 jetways, and is capable of handling 15 million passengers annually.there are 800 parking places.the airport complex includes a small museum, a playcenter and a mall with 60 stores inside the main terminal.according to airhelp, it was listed as the 4th best airport in the world in 2019.previously operated by infraero, on april 7, 2021, ccr won a 30-year concession to operate the airport.the aircraft descended and struck the ground.of the 27 passengers and crew aboard, 24 died.among the deaths was the brazilian interim president at that time, nereu ramos.3 november 1967: a sadia handley page dart herald 214, registration pp-sdj, flying from são paulo-congonhas to curitiba, collided with a hill during approach to land at curitiba.all 5 crew members and 21 passengers died.4 passengers survived.16 august 2000: a vasp boeing 737-2a1 registration pp-smg, en route from foz do iguaçu to curitiba, was hijacked by 5 persons demanding the brl 5 million (approximately us$2.75 million at that time) that the aircraft was transporting.the pilot was forced to land at porecatu, where the hijackers fled with the money.there were no injuries.26 december 2002: a brazilian air force embraer emb 110 bandeirante, registration fab-2292, en route from são paulo-campo de marte to florianópolis air force base, crashed while trying to carry out an emergency landing at curitiba-afonso pena.reportedly, both engines had shut down.the airplane had taken off with insufficient fuel on board to complete the flight to florianópolis.of the 16 people on board, 1 crew member and 2 passengers died.source: dafif (effective october 2006).current weather for sbct at noaa/nws accident history for cwb at aviation safety network","afonso pena international airport | operatingorganisation | infraero","since the bottleneck for the airport is the cargo capacity, the main runway was lengthened in 2008 to allow cargo flights to operate with greater loads and the cargo terminal was upgraded.on 31 august 2009, infraero unveiled a brl30 million (usd16 million; eur11 million) investment plan to upgrade afonso pena international airport focusing on the preparations for the 2014 fifa world cup which were held in brazil, curitiba being one of the venue cities.according to airhelp, it was listed as the 4th best airport in the world in 2019.previously operated by infraero, on april 7, 2021, ccr won a 30-year concession to operate the airport." "honour (commonwealth english) or honor (american english; see spelling differences) is the idea of a bond between an individual and a society as a quality of a person that is both of social teaching and of personal ethos, that manifests itself as a code of conduct, and has various elements such as valour, chivalry, honesty, and compassion.it is an abstract concept entailing a perceived quality of worthiness and respectability that affects both the social standing and the self-evaluation of an individual or institutions such as a family, school, regiment, or nation.accordingly, individuals (or institutions) are assigned worth and stature based on the harmony of their actions with a specific code of honour, and the moral code of the society at large.samuel johnson, in his a dictionary of the english language (1755), defined honour as having several senses, the first of which was 'nobility of soul, magnanimity, and a scorn of meanness'.this sort of honour derives from the perceived virtuous conduct and personal integrity of the person endowed with it.on the other hand, johnson also defined honour in relationship to 'reputation' and 'fame'; to 'privileges of rank or birth', and as 'respect' of the kind which 'places an individual socially and determines his right to precedence'.this sort of honour is often not so much a function of moral or ethical excellence, as it is a consequence of power.finally, with respect to sexuality, honour has traditionally been associated with (or identical to) 'chastity' or 'virginity', or in case of married men and women, 'fidelity'.some have argued that honour should be seen more as a rhetoric, or set of possible actions, than as a code.margaret visser observes that in an honour-based society 'a person is what he or she is in the eyes of other people'.a code of honour differs from a legal code, also socially defined and concerned with justice, in that honour remains implicit rather than explicit and objectified.one can distinguish honour from dignity, which wordsworth assessed as measured against an individual's conscience rather than against the judgement of a community.compare also the sociological concept of 'face'.in the early medieval period, a lord's or lady's honour was the group of manors or lands he or she held.'the word was first used indicating an estate which gave its holder dignity and status.'for a person to say 'on my honour' was not just an affirmation of his or her integrity and rank, but the veracity behind that phrase meant he or she was willing to offer up estates as pledge and guarantee.the concept of honour appears to have declined in importance in the modern west; conscience has replaced it in the individual context, and the rule of law (with the rights and duties defined therein) has taken over in a social context.popular stereotypes would have it surviving more definitively in more tradition-bound cultures (e.g.pashtun, southern italian, polish, persian, turkish, arab, iberian, 'old south' or dixie) in a perception akin to orientalism.feudal or other agrarian societies, which focus upon land use and land ownership, may tend to 'honour' more than do contemporary industrial societies.note that saint anselm of canterbury (c. 1033 – 1109) in cur deus homo extended the concept of honour from his own feudal society to postulate god's honour.an emphasis on the importance of honour exists in such traditional institutions as the military (serving officers may conduct a court of honour) and in organisations with a military ethos, such as scouting organisations (which also feature 'courts of honour').honour in the case of sexuality frequently relates, historically, to fidelity: preservation of 'honour' equates primarily to maintenance of the virginity of singles and to the exclusive monogamy of the remainder of the population.","honda | division | acura","no related information" "ireland (irish: éire [ˈeːɾʲə] (listen)), also known as the republic of ireland (poblacht na héireann), is a country in north-western europe consisting of 26 of the 32 counties of the island of ireland.the capital and largest city is dublin, on the eastern side of the island.around 2.1 million of the country's population of 5.13 million people reside in the greater dublin area.the sovereign state shares its only land border with northern ireland, which is part of the united kingdom.it is otherwise surrounded by the atlantic ocean, with the celtic sea to the south, st george's channel to the south-east, and the irish sea to the east.it is a unitary, parliamentary republic.the legislature, the oireachtas, consists of a lower house, dáil éireann; an upper house, seanad éireann; and an elected president (uachtarán) who serves as the largely ceremonial head of state, but with some important powers and duties.the head of government is the taoiseach (prime minister, literally 'chief'), who is elected by the dáil and appointed by the president;

north america and the caribbean sea lie to the northwest.the continent generally includes twelve sovereign states: argentina, bolivia, brazil, chile, colombia, ecuador, guyana, paraguay, peru, suriname, uruguay, and venezuela; two dependent territories: the falkland islands and south georgia and the south sandwich islands; and one internal territory: french guiana.in addition, the abc islands of the kingdom of the netherlands, ascension island (dependency of saint helena, ascension and tristan da cunha, a british overseas territory), bouvet island (dependency of norway), panama, and trinidad and tobago may also be considered parts of south america.south america has an area of 17,840,000 square kilometers (6,890,000 sq mi).its population as of 2021 has been estimated at more than 434 million.south america ranks fourth in area (after asia, africa, and north america) and fifth in population (after asia, africa, europe, and north america).brazil is by far the most populous south american country, with more than half of the continent's population, followed by colombia, argentina, venezuela and peru.in recent decades, brazil has also generated half of the continent's gdp and has become the continent's first regional power.most of the population lives near the continent's western or eastern coasts while the interior and the far south are sparsely populated.the geography of western south america is dominated by the andes mountains; in contrast, the eastern part contains both highland regions and vast lowlands where rivers such as the amazon, orinoco and paraná flow.most of the continent lies in the tropics, except for a large part of the southern cone located in the middle latitudes.the continent's cultural and ethnic outlook has its origin with the interaction of indigenous peoples with european conquerors and immigrants and, more locally, with african slaves.given a long history of colonialism, the overwhelming majority of south americans speak spanish or portuguese, and societies and states are rich in western traditions.relative to europe, asia and africa, 20th-century south america has been a peaceful continent with few wars.the continent is generally delimited on the northwest by the darién watershed along the colombia–panama border, although some may consider the border instead to be the panama canal.geopolitically and geographically, all of panama – including the segment east of the panama canal in the isthmus – is typically included in north america alone and among the countries of central america.almost all of mainland south america sits on the south american plate.south america is home to the world's highest uninterrupted waterfall, angel falls in venezuela; the highest single drop waterfall kaieteur falls in guyana; the largest river by volume, the amazon river; the longest mountain range, the andes (whose highest mountain is aconcagua at 6,962 m or 22,841 ft);

democratic muslim-majority state.in 1920, the country was incorporated into the soviet union as the azerbaijan ssr.the modern republic of azerbaijan proclaimed its independence on 30 august 1991, shortly before the dissolution of the soviet union in the same year.in september 1991, the ethnic armenian majority of the nagorno-karabakh region formed the self-proclaimed republic of artsakh.the region and seven surrounding districts are internationally recognized as part of azerbaijan, pending a solution to the status of nagorno-karabakh through negotiations facilitated by the osce, although became de facto independent with the end of the first nagorno-karabakh war in 1994.following the second nagorno-karabakh war in 2020, the seven districts and parts of nagorno-karabakh were returned to azerbaijani control.azerbaijan is a unitary semi-presidential republic.it is one of six independent turkic states and an active member of the organization of turkic states and the türksoy community.azerbaijan has diplomatic relations with 182 countries and holds membership in 38 international organizations, including the united nations, the council of europe, the non-aligned movement, the osce, and the nato pfp program.it is one of the founding members of guam, the cis, and the opcw.azerbaijan is also an observer state of the wto.the vast majority of the country's population (97%) is nominally muslim, but the constitution does not declare an official religion and all major political forces in the country are secularist.azerbaijan is a developing country and ranks 91st on the human development index.it has a high rate of economic development, literacy, and a low rate of unemployment.however, the ruling new azerbaijan party, in power since 1993, has been accused of authoritarian leadership under the leadership of both heydar aliyev and his son ilham aliyev, and deteriorating the country's human rights record, including increasing restrictions on civil liberties, particularly on press freedom and political repression.the original etymology of this name is thought to have its roots in the once-dominant zoroastrianism.in the avesta's frawardin yasht ('hymn to the guardian angels'), there is a mention of âterepâtahe ashaonô fravashîm ýazamaide, which literally translates from avestan as 'we worship the fravashi of the holy atropatene'.the name 'atropates' itself is the greek transliteration of an old iranian, probably median, compounded name with the meaning 'protected by the (holy) fire' or 'the land of the (holy) fire'.the greek name was mentioned by diodorus siculus and strabo.over the span of millennia, the name evolved to āturpātākān (middle persian), then to ādharbādhagān, ādhorbāygān, āzarbāydjān (new persian) and present-day azerbaijan.the name azerbaijan was first adopted for the area of the present-day republic of azerbaijan by the government of musavat in 1918, after the collapse of the russian empire, when the independent azerbaijan democratic republic was established.until then, the designation had been used exclusively to identify the adjacent region of contemporary northwestern iran, while the area of the azerbaijan democratic republic was formerly referred to as arran and shirvan.on that basis iran protested the newly adopted country name.during soviet rule, the country was also spelled in latin from the russian transliteration as azerbaydzhan (russian: азербайджа́н).","azerbaijan | leadername | artur rasizade","no related information" "alpena county regional airport (iata: apn, icao: kapn, faa lid: apn) is a

7, 2001.the studies showed that the asteroid has a mean diameter of 1.1 km, assuming that 1950 da is a retrograde rotator.optical lightcurve analysis by lenka šarounová and petr pravec shows that its rotation period is 2.1216±0.0001 hours.due to its short rotation period and high radar albedo, 1950 da is thought to be fairly dense (more than 3.5 g/cm3, assuming that it has no internal strength) and likely composed of nickel–iron.in august 2014, scientists from the university of tennessee determined that 1950 da is a rubble pile rotating faster than the breakup limit for its density, implying the asteroid is held together by van der waals forces rather than gravity.1950 da made a distant approach to earth on 5 february 2021.however, at that time it was half an au away from earth, preventing more useful astrometrics and timing that occurs when an object is closer to earth.the next close approach that presents a good opportunity to observe the asteroid will be on 2 march 2032, when it will be 0.075 au (11.2 million km) from earth.the following table lists next five approaches closer than 0.10 au.by 2136 the close approach solutions are becoming notably more divergent.at that distance and size, diana will perturb 1950 da enough so that the change in trajectory is notable by 2880 (730 years later).in addition, over the intervening time, 1950 da's rotation will cause its orbit to slightly change as a result of the yarkovsky effect.if 1950 da continues on its present orbit, it may approach earth on 16 march 2880, though the mean trajectory passes many millions of kilometres from earth, so 1950 da does not have a significant chance of impacting earth.as of the 7 december 2015 solution, the probability of an impact in 2880 is 1 in 8,300 (0.012%).the energy released by a collision with an object the size of 1950 da would cause major effects on the climate and biosphere, which would be devastating to human civilization.the discovery of the potential impact heightened interest in asteroid deflection strategies.mpc 4 january 2001 3d model rotating model of the asteroid (preferred rotation model is retrograde, neodys) asteroid lightcurve database

"(410777) 2009 fd is a carbonaceous sub-kilometer asteroid and binary system, classified as near-earth object and potentially hazardous asteroid of the apollo group, discovered on 24 february 2009 by astronomers of the spacewatch program at kitt peak national observatory near tucson, arizona, in the united states.until 2019, the asteroid's modelled orbit placed it at risk of a possible future collision with earth in 2185.with a palermo technical impact hazard scale rating of -0.44, it had the fifth highest impact threat of all known asteroids based on its estimated diameter, kinetic yield, impact probability, and time interval.observations to 2019 extended the observation arc by four years and detected a favourable yarkovsky effect, which ruled out impact in 2185.using observations from 16 november 2020, the asteroid was removed from the sentry risk table on 19 november 2020.because there were previous observations found in images taken by the spacewatch survey some 3 weeks prior, on 24 february 2009, the minor planet center assigned the discovery credit to spacewatch under the discovery assignment rules.2009 fd made a close pass to earth on 27 march 2009 at a distance of 0.004172 au (624,100 km; 387,800 mi) and another on 24 october 2010 at 0.0702 au.2009 fd was recovered at apparent magnitude 23 on 30 november 2013 by cerro paranal observatory, several months before the close approach of april 2014 when it passed 0.1 au from earth.it brightened to roughly apparent magnitude 19.3 around mid-march 2014.one radar doppler observation of 2009 fd was made in 2014.the october–november 2015 earth approach was studied by the goldstone deep space network.this gave it an estimated mass of around 2,800,000 tonnes.but work by amy mainzer using neowise data in 2014 showed that it could be as large as 472 metres with an albedo as low as 0.01.because 2009 fd (k09f00d) was only detected in two (w1+w2) of the four wavelengths the suspected neowise diameter is more of an upper limit.radar observations in 2015 showed it to be a binary asteroid.the primary is 120–180 meters in diameter and the secondary is 60–120 meters in diameter.as of 2016, the approach of 29 march 2185 had a 1 in 710 chance of impacting earth.the nominal 2185 earth approach distance was 0.009 au (1,300,000 km; 840,000 mi).orbit determination for 2190 is complicated by the 2185 close approach.the precise distance that it will pass from earth and the moon on 29 march 2185 will determine the 30 march 2190 distance.2009 fd should pass closer to the moon than earth on 29 march 2185.an impact by 2009 fd would cause severe devastation to a large region or tsunamis of significant size.in 2014 (with observations through 5 february 2014, creating an observation arc of 1807 days) the potential 2185 impact was ruled out.using the 2014 observations, the yarkovsky effect has become more significant than the position uncertainties.the yarkovsky effect has resulted in the 2185 virtual impactor returning.while 2009 fd was estimated to be 470 meters in diameter, it was rated −0.40 on the palermo scale, placing it higher on the sentry risk table than any other known object at the time.on 14 june 2019, alessio del vigna and colleagues published a new analysis, which incorporates astrometry taken in 2019.using both jpl's sentry as well as neodys's clomon-2 system, the new data allowed a 4-sigma detection of the yarkovsky effect at (+3.6±0.9)×10−3 au/myr.the 2019 observations extended the observation arc from six years to ten years.this ruled out the 2185 impact possibility, leaving the potential impact in 2190 as the only theoretically possible impact until 2250, at a very low probability of 1 in 100 million.","410777 2009 fd | apoapsis | 25977670247055 kilometres","no

"66391 moshup , provisional designation 1999 kw4, is a binary asteroid, classified as a near-earth object and potentially hazardous asteroid of the aten group, approximately 1.3 kilometers in diameter.it was discovered on 20 may 1999, by lincoln near-earth asteroid research (linear) at the lincoln laboratory's experimental test site in socorro, new mexico, united states.it is a mercury-crosser that comes extremely close to the sun at a perihelion of 0.2 au.its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.69 and an inclination of 39° with respect to the ecliptic.a first precovery was taken by 2mass at the fred lawrence whipple observatory in 1998, extending the body's observation arc by one year prior to its official discovery observation at socorro.as a potentially hazardous asteroid, it has an earth minimum orbital intersection distance of 0.0138 au (2,060,000 km) which corresponds to 5.4 lunar distances.on 25 may 2036, it will pass 0.0155 au (2,320,000 km) from earth.it was named from mohegan legend, after moshup, a giant who lived in the coastal areas of new england.the asteroid's companion is named squannit, after the wife of moshup and a medicine woman of the makiawisug (little people).the official naming citation was published by the minor planet center on 27 august 2019 (m.p.c.115894).the moon, named squannit and designated s/2001 (66391) 1, is approximately 360 metres in diameter, and orbits its primary in every 16 hours at a mean-distance of 2.6 kilometers.the presence of a companion was suggested by photometric observations made by pravec and šarounová and was confirmed by radar observations from arecibo observations and announced on 23 may 2001 (also see below).based on radar imaging, squannit's dimensions are estimated to be 595 × 450 × 343 meters.the observations were taken from may 21–23, 2001, by lance a. m. benner, steven j. ostro, jon d. giorgini, raymond f. jurgens, jean-luc margot and michael c. nolan.the collaborative asteroid lightcurve link adopts a diameter of 1.3 kilometers and derives an albedo 0.26 with an absolute magnitude of 16.5.the shapes of the two bodies and their dynamics are complex.with a dimension of approximately 1.42 × 1.36 × 1.18 kilometers for a simple triaxial ellipsoid, the asteroid has an oblate shape, which is dominated by an equatorial ridge at the body's potential-energy minimum.this bizarre property of the equatorial region means that it is close to breakup: raising a particle a meter above the surface would put it into orbit.as seen in the image at above right, the gravitational effects between the moon and the asteroid create a gigantic mountain extending in the equatorial plane around the entire asteroid.it was the first asteroid to be described as 'muffin-shaped', which is now understood to be a very common shape for asteroids in critical rotation, including 101955 bennu and 162173 ryugu.lightcurve analysis gave a rotation period of 2.7650 hours with a brightness variation of 0.12 magnitude (u=3).","66391 1999 kw4 | periapsis | 299196000000","no related information" "abdul taib bin mahmud (jawi: عبدالطيب بن محمود; born 21 may 1936) is a malaysian politician who has served as

is both the capital and largest city of greece.with its urban area's population numbering over three million, it is also the eighth largest urban area in the european union.athens dominates and is the capital of the attica region and is one of the world's oldest cities, with its recorded history spanning over 3,400 years, and its earliest human presence beginning somewhere between the 11th and 7th millennia bce.classical athens was a powerful city-state.it was a centre for the arts, learning and philosophy, and the home of plato's academy and aristotle's lyceum.it is widely referred to as the cradle of western civilization and the birthplace of democracy, largely because of its cultural and political influence on the european continent—particularly ancient rome.in modern times, athens is a large cosmopolitan metropolis and central to economic, financial, industrial, maritime, political and cultural life in greece.in 2023, athens' surrounding metropolitan area had a population of 3.1 million.athens is a beta-status global city according to the globalization and world cities research network, and is one of the biggest economic centers in southeastern europe.it also has a large financial sector, and its port piraeus is both the 3rd busiest passenger port in europe, and the 26th largest container port in the world.the municipality of athens (also city of athens), which actually constitutes a small administrative unit of the entire urban area, had a population of 643,452 (in 2021) within its official limits, and a land area of 38.96 km2 (15.04 sq mi).the athens metropolitan area or greater athens extends beyond its administrative municipal city limits, with a population of 3,744,059 (in 2021) over an area of 412 km2 (159 sq mi).athens is also the southernmost capital on the european mainland.the heritage of the classical era is still evident in the city, represented by ancient monuments, and works of art, the most famous of all being the parthenon, considered a key landmark of early western civilization.the city also retains roman, byzantine and a smaller number of ottoman monuments, while its historical urban core features elements of continuity through its millennia of history.athens is home to two unesco world heritage sites, the acropolis of athens and the medieval daphni monastery.landmarks of the modern era, dating back to the establishment of athens as the capital of the independent greek state in 1834, include the hellenic parliament and the architectural trilogy of athens, consisting of the national library of greece, the national and kapodistrian university of athens, and the academy of athens.athens is also home to several museums and cultural institutions, such as the national archeological museum, featuring the world's largest collection of ancient greek antiquities, the acropolis museum, the museum of cycladic art, the benaki museum, and the byzantine and christian museum.athens was the host city of the first modern-day olympic games in 1896, and 108 years later it hosted the 2004 summer olympics, making it one of the few cities to have hosted the olympics more than once.athens joined the unesco global network of learning cities in 2016.in earlier greek, such as homeric greek, the name had been current in the singular form though, as ἀθήνη (athḗnē).it was possibly rendered in the plural later on, like those of θῆβαι (thêbai) and μυκῆναι (μukênai).the root of the word is probably not of greek or indo-european origin, and is possibly a remnant of the pre-greek substrate of attica.","athens | mayor | giorgos kaminis","no related information" "athens international airport eleftherios venizelos (greek: διεθνής αερολιμένας αθηνών «ελευθέριος βενιζέλος», diethnís aeroliménas

operation on 28 march 2001 (in time for the 2004 summer olympics) and is the main base of aegean airlines, as well as other smaller greek airlines.it replaced the old ellinikon international airport.athens international is currently a member of group 1 of airports council international (over 25 million passengers) as of 2022, it is the 19th-busiest airport in europe and the busiest and largest in the balkans.the airport is named after elefthérios venizélos, the prominent cretan political figure and prime minister of greece, who made a significant contribution to the development of greek aviation and the hellenic air force in the 1930s.as to-date, the airport is operated by aia s.a. and ownership is divided between the hellenic republic (greek state) and private sector in a 55%-45% stake following a ppp scheme for the airport company.currently, private investors include the copelouzos group (5%) and psp investments of canada (40%), following purchase of hochtief's shares.the airport was constructed to replace the now-closed athens (ellinikon) international airport, as the latter had reached its saturation point with no physical space for further growth.studies for a new airport had been carried out from as early as the 1970s, with as many as 19 different locations being looked at before an area close to the town of spata was chosen as suitable.athens airport sa, a state-owned company, was established in 1978 to proceed with the plans.however, after delays and slow development, the project was revived in 1991, approximately 1 year after the city lost the right to host the 1996 summer olympics to atlanta, usa and the possibility of submitting a bid for the 2000 game was discussed.however, the city presented the project that was eventually the winner for the 2004 summer olympic games, with the then government launching an international tender for the selection of a build-own-operate-transfer partner for the airport project, with hochtief of germany being selected.in 1996, athens international airport s.a. (aia) was established as a public–private partnership with a 30-year concession agreement.that same year, the €2.1 billion development finally began with an estimated completion date of february 2001.the airport construction was completed five months before schedule, but was delayed opening a month due to surface connections to attiki odos not being completed.the airport officially opened on 28 march 2001 its major features include two parallel runways being 4 km (2.5 mi) and 3.8 km (2.4 mi) long respectively.the airport has received approval from the european aviation safety agency and the federal aviation administration for take-offs and landings of the biggest passenger jet worldwide, the a380.the first ever a380 to visit 'eleftherios venizelos' athens international airport made an emergency landing on 13 april 2011 for emergency medical reasons.the first scheduled a380 flight took place on 26 october 2012 by emirates.many long-haul airlines outright terminated service to the airport, while others chose to operate on a seasonal basis only, opting to terminate service during the winter months.moreover, these problems were further exacerbated by the closure of olympic airlines, which operated many long-haul flights to and from the airport.in 2013, the airport handled just above 12.5 million passengers, 3.2% fewer than in 2012 and lower by approximately 25% when compared to 2007's traffic, which was the all-time-high at that time.more than ten new airlines started new flights to and from athens.","athens international airport | location | spata","studies for a new airport had been carried out from as early as the 1970s, with as many as 19 different locations being looked at before an area close to the town of spata was chosen as suitable."

house of representatives and senate and was the 80th governor of connecticut and secretary of health, education, and welfare in president john f. kennedy's cabinet.he was connecticut's first and to date only jewish governor.ribicoff's relatively poor parents valued education and insisted that all his earnings from part-time boyhood jobs go toward his future schooling.after high school, he worked for a year at a nearby zipper factory of the g. e. prentice company to earn additional funds for college.ribicoff enrolled at new york university in 1928, then transferred to the university of chicago after the prentice company made him the chicago office manager.while in chicago, ribicoff coped with school and work schedules and was permitted to enter the university's law school before finishing his undergraduate degree.still a student, he married ruth siegel on june 28, 1931; they had two children.ribicoff served as editor of the university of chicago law review in his third year and received an llb cum laude in 1933, being admitted to the connecticut bar the same year.after practicing law in the office of a hartford lawyer, ribicoff set up his practice, first in kensington and later in hartford.from 1941 to 1943 and again from 1945 to 1947 he was the judge of hartford police court.during his political career, ribicoff was a protégé of john moran bailey, the powerful chairman of the democratic party of connecticut.during that time, he served on the foreign affairs committee, a position usually reserved for members with more seniority, and was a mostly loyal supporter of the foreign and domestic policies of president harry s. truman's administration.generally liberal in his outlook, he surprised many by opposing a $32 million appropriation for the construction of a dam in enfield, connecticut, arguing that the money was better spent on military needs and foreign policy initiatives such as the marshall plan.in 1952 he made an unsuccessful bid for election to fill a vacancy in the united states senate, losing to prescott bush.as governor (1955–1961), ribicoff soon faced the challenge of rebuilding his state in the wake of devastating floods that occurred in the late summer and fall of 1955, and he successfully led bipartisan efforts to aid damaged areas.ribicoff then successfully argued for increased state spending on schools and welfare programs.he also supported an amendment to the state constitution that enhanced the governing powers of local municipalities.easily reelected in 1958, ribicoff had by now become active on the national political scene.a longtime friend of massachusetts senator john f. kennedy, ribicoff had nominated his fellow new englander for vice president at the 1956 democratic national convention and was one of the first public officials to endorse kennedy's presidential campaign.he reportedly declined the position of attorney general for fear that he might create needless controversy within the emerging civil rights movement because he was jewish, and he instead chose to be secretary of health, education, and welfare (hew).although he managed to secure a revision of the 1935 social security act that liberalized requirements for aid to dependent children, ribicoff was unable to gain approval for the administration's medicare and school aid bills.eventually, he tired of attempting to manage the department, whose very size made it, in his opinion, unmanageable.ribicoff reflected that he had sought out the position of hew secretary mainly out of concern for education and 'realized that the problems of health and welfare were so overriding that education was relegated to the back burner' during his tenure.","abraham a ribicoff | successor | anthony j celebrezze","no related information" "1089 tama, provisional designation 1927 wb, is an elongated florian asteroid and synchronous binary system from the inner regions of the asteroid belt, approximately 12 kilometers in diameter.it was discovered by japanese astronomer okuro oikawa at the old tokyo astronomical observatory (389) on 17 november 1927.the asteroid was named after the tama river in japan.its minor-planet moon was discovered in december 2003 and measures approximately 9 kilometers.it is, however, a non-family asteroid from the main belt's background population when applying the hierarchical clustering method to its proper orbital elements.the asteroid orbits the sun in the inner main-belt at a distance of 1.9–2.5 au once every 3 years and 3 months (1,203 days).its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.13 and an inclination of 4° with respect to the ecliptic.tama was first identified as a894 va at heidelberg observatory in november 1894.the body's observation arc begins with its identification as a904 vd at heidelberg in november 1904, or 23 years prior to its official discovery observation at tokyo.lightcurve analysis gave a rotation period between 16.4 and 16.464 hours with a brightness variation between 0.08 and 0.41 magnitude (u=2-/2-3-/3), superseding a period of 4 hours from a fragmentary lightcurve obtained in the 1990s (u=1).tama appears to be somewhat elongated in shape.lcdb's consolidated result gives a period of 16.44 hours and an amplitude of 0.41 magnitude (u=3).the satellite was identified based on lightcurve observations with mutual occultation and eclipsing events from 24 december 2003 to 5 january 2004 by raoul behrend, rené roy, claudine rinner, pierre antonini, petr pravec, alan harris, stefano sposetti, russell durkee, and alain klotz.the moon measures approximately 9 kilometers in diameter.it may orbits 20 km away in a period of 16.4442 hours (synchronously).in 2013, modelling by an international study using photometric data from the us naval observatory, the uppsala asteroid photometric catalogue (uapc) and the palmer divide observatory, gave a concurring rotation period of 16.4655 hours.another modeled lightcurve using data from uapc, the palomar transient factory survey, and individual observers, gave a period of 16.4461 hours as well as two spin axes of (193.0°, 32.0°) and (9.0°, 28.0°) in ecliptic coordinates (λ, β).the official

the argentine naval academy in 1908 and, upon graduation in 1912, was accepted to the united states naval academy.there, he was commissioned as a submarine officer in the u.s. navy, during world war i.returning to argentina, he married duilia fayo lonne and was eventually named commander of the navy's flagship, the historic sarmiento frigate.teisaire later taught at the argentine naval academy and held numerous policy-making posts in that service, including ones in the naval requisitions department, the argentine naval delegations in the united states and europe, as head of the navy's river fleet (1938), and as assistant director of the important navy mechanics' school, in 1940, where he specialized in the instruction of navigation and hydrology.he became a reliable ally of the new war and labor minister, col. juan perón, whose support of organized labor and their platform had provoked growing rivalries within the military regime.teisaire became perón's most prominent ally in the government when, in july, he was named interior minister (at the time, overseeing law enforcement).he retired as rear admiral in 1945 to pursue a seat in the argentine senate, ahead of the february 1946 general elections.elected as senator on perón's labor party ticket, teisaire represented the city of buenos aires, a district normally leaning towards perón's chief opposition, the centrist ucr.he, however, did not enjoy support from the president's influential first lady, eva perón, who refused his request to take part in her 1947 'rainbow tour' because (in her words): 'i did not want that fruitcake creating a scandal in paris, when for that i already have paquito, who at least makes me laugh.'teisaire did well in his career in the senate, even so.he was named provisional president of the senate in 1947, and was reelected senator in 1951.he was elected to the constitutional assembly of 1949, which drafted a replacement of the 1853 constitution of argentina (reinstated in 1957).he was named head of the peronist party's superior council in 1952, effectively making him the third-most powerful member of the administration (after interior minister ángel borlenghi and perón, himself).teisaire introduced the lions club into argentina in 1954, and received the german order of merit.controversy surrounding the president's in-laws and political violence both by and against his peronist movement dominated headlines in the first half of 1953, and perón took the opportunity of upcoming legislative polls to test his popularity.the argentine constitution did not require it at the time, but a special election was announced to replace the late vice president, hortensio quijano, and perón nominated teisaire as his candidate for the post.the april 1954 elections increased the peronists' overwhelming majority in congress and elected teisaire vice president by a 30% margin of victory.following this success, perón began to dispense with his hitherto warm relations with the catholic church by banning a number of their organizations and periodicals, and with the unprecedented, december 22 legalization of divorce and prostitution.the vice president supported these moves, arguing that argentina's catholic majority were mostly non-practicing and, by extension, probably amenable to perón's push to limit their influence.the miscalculation proved fateful, however.the dispute damaged teisaire's influence among the largely conservative catholic navy commanders, who spitefully referred to the vice president as 'that freemason,' and soon destroyed military loyalty for the administration itself.a series of violent confrontations from june to september 1955 ended with perón's september 19 resignation and exile.his 'confession' was produced into a 12-minute propaganda film by the revolución libertadora, which ordered the footage shown in all movie theatres.","alberto teisaire | nationality | argentina","alberto teisaire (20 may 1891 – 11

of clematis was obtained from photometric observations by american astronomers brian warner at the palmer divide observatory, colorado, and by robert stephens at gmars (g79, california.lightcurve

(u=1/2/2/2).while not being a slow rotator, clematis has a much longer period than that known for most other asteroids, and its small amplitude is indicative for a rather spheroidal shape.the official naming citation was mentioned in the names of the minor planets by paul herget in 1955 (h n.a.).the list covered his discoveries with numbers between (1009) and (1200).this list also contained a

muslim population, just behind indonesia.islamabad is the nation's capital, while karachi is its largest city and financial centre, followed by lahore and faisalabad.pakistan is the 33rd-largest country in the world by area and the second-largest in south asia, spanning 881,913 square kilometres (340,509 square miles).it has a 1,046-kilometre (650-mile) coastline along the arabian sea and gulf of oman in the south, and is bordered by india to the east, afghanistan to the west, iran to the southwest, and china to the northeast.it is separated narrowly from tajikistan by afghanistan's wakhan corridor in the north, and also shares a maritime border with oman.pakistan is the site of several ancient cultures, including the 8,500-year-old neolithic site of mehrgarh in balochistan, the indus valley civilisation of the bronze age, and the ancient gandhara civilisation.the regions that comprise the modern state of pakistan were the realm of multiple empires and dynasties, including the achaemenid, the maurya, the kushan, the gupta; the umayyad caliphate in its southern regions, the samma, the hindu shahis, the shah miris, the ghaznavids, the delhi sultanate, the mughals, and most recently, the british raj from 1858 to 1947.spurred by the pakistan movement, which sought a homeland for the muslims of british india, and election victories in 1946 by the all-india muslim league, pakistan gained independence in 1947 after the partition of the british indian empire, which awarded separate statehood to its muslim-majority regions and was accompanied by an unparalleled mass migration and loss of life.initially a dominion of the british commonwealth, pakistan officially drafted its constitution in 1956, and emerged as a declared islamic republic.in 1971, the exclave of east pakistan seceded as the new country of bangladesh after a nine-month-long civil war.in the following four decades, pakistan has been ruled by governments whose descriptions, although complex, commonly alternated between civilian and military, democratic and authoritarian, relatively secular and islamist.pakistan elected a civilian government in 2008, and in 2010 adopted a parliamentary system with periodic elections.pakistan is a middle power nation, and has the world's sixth-largest standing armed forces.it is a declared nuclear-weapons state, and is ranked amongst the emerging and growth-leading economies, with a large and rapidly-growing middle class.pakistan's political history since independence has been characterised by periods of significant economic and military growth as well as those of political and economic instability.it is an ethnically and linguistically diverse country, with similarly diverse geography and wildlife.the country continues to face challenges, including poverty, illiteracy, corruption and terrorism.pakistan is a member of the united nations, the shanghai cooperation organisation, the organisation of islamic cooperation, the commonwealth of nations, the south asian association for regional cooperation, and the islamic military counter-terrorism coalition, and is designated as a major non-nato ally by the united states.rahmat ali explained: 'it is composed of letters taken from the names of all our homelands, indian and asian, panjab, afghania, kashmir, sindh, and baluchistan.'he added that 'pakistan is both a persian and urdu

several minor planets and made observations on comets.he introduced a mathematical scale of stellar magnitudes with the ratio of two successive magnitudes being the fifth root of one hundred (~2.512) and referred to as pogson's ratio.it was intended that he should follow his father into business, and he was accordingly sent for 'commercial education', but he was fascinated by science, and his mother supported and encouraged this interest.his early education was largely informal.he left school at 16, intending to teach mathematics.at the age of eighteen, he calculated with the help of john russell hind of the royal astronomical society, the orbits of two comets.he was introduced to astronomy through george bishop's observatory at south villa regent's park from 1846.he took an interest in comets and studied iris, a minor planet that had been recently discovered.he was engaged as an assistant at the radcliffe observatory in 1852; a new heliometer had been installed there in 1850.he received the lalande medal upon his discovery of the minor planet isis.his oxford period was spent studying variable stars and other routine research.in 1854 he helped sir george airy conduct an experiment to determine the density of the earth.pogson was appointed as director at the hartwell observatory belonging to john lee in 1859.he published around fourteen papers from 1859 to 1860 in the monthly notices of the royal astronomical society, mostly on variable stars and on minor planets.sir charles wood appointed him as government astronomer for madras in october 1860.reaching india in 1861 and working at the madras observatory he worked tirelessly, discovering the asteroid 67 asia.in the next seven years he found five minor planets and seven variable stars.he continued worked on taylor's madras catalogue ('taylor's general catalogue of stars from observations made at the madras observatory during the years 1831-1842') of 11,015 stars which had been published in 1835 based on work begun in 1831 by t. g. taylor.pogson continued work on this to add 51,101 observations (until 1887) and after his death in 1891 the catalogue was revised by arthur downing and published in 1901.despite pogson's isolation he had at the time of his death discovered 134 stars, 106 variable stars, 21 possible variable stars and 7 possible supernovae.pogson also made special expeditions, observing a total solar eclipse on 18 august 1868 at masulipatnam and making spectrometric studies.he observed and commented on the spectral line associated with helium, then yet to be discovered.his most notable contribution was to note that in the stellar magnitude system introduced by the greek astronomer hipparchus, stars of the first magnitude were a hundred times as bright as stars of the sixth magnitude.pogson's suggestion in 1856 was to make this a standard; thus, a first magnitude star is 1001/5 or about 2.512 times as bright as a second magnitude star.this fifth root of 100 is known as pogson's ratio.the magnitude relation is given as follows: m1 - m2 = -2.5 log10 (l1 / l2)where m is the stellar magnitude and l is the luminosity, for stars 1 and 2.in 1868 and 1871, pogson joined the indian solar eclipse expeditions.he received a telegram from ernst friedrich wilhelm klinkerfues on 30 november 1872 which read biela touched earth on 27th.search near theta centauri, a

authority oversees much of the regional transportation infrastructure, including bridges, tunnels, airports, and seaports, within the geographical jurisdiction of the port of new york and new jersey.this 1,500-square-mile (3,900 km2) port district is generally encompassed within a 25-mile (40 km) radius of the statue of liberty national monument.the port authority is headquartered at 4 world trade center.the port authority operates the port newark–elizabeth marine terminal, which handled the third-largest volume of shipping among all ports in the united states in 2004, and the largest on the eastern seaboard.the port authority also operates six bi-state crossings: three connecting new jersey with manhattan, and three connecting new jersey with staten island.the port authority bus terminal and the path rail system are also run by the port authority, as well as laguardia airport, john f. kennedy international airport, newark liberty international airport, teterboro airport and stewart international airport.the agency has its own 2,232-member port authority police department.the congestion at the port led experts to realize the need for a port authority to supervise the extremely complex system of bridges, highways, subways, and port facilities in the new york-new jersey area.the solution was the 1921 creation of the port authority under the supervision of the governors of the two states.by issuing its own bonds, it was financially independent of either state; the bonds were paid off from tolls and fees, not from taxes.it became one of the major agencies of the metropolitan area for large-scale projects.early bond issues were tied to specific projects, but this changed in 1935 when the authority issued general and refunding bonds with a claim on its general revenues.at the time, rail lines terminated on the new jersey side of the harbor, while ocean shipping was centered on manhattan and brooklyn.freight had to be shipped across the hudson river in barges.in 1916, new jersey launched a lawsuit against new york over issues of rail freight, with the interstate commerce commission (icc) issuing an order that the two states work together, subordinating their own interests to the public interest.the harbor development commission, a joint advisory board set-up in 1917, recommended that a bi-state authority be established to oversee efficient economic development of the port district.the port of new york authority was established on april 30, 1921, through an interstate compact between the states of new jersey and new york.this was the first such agency in the united states, created under a provision in the constitution of the united states permitting interstate compacts.the idea for the port authority was conceived during the progressive era, which aimed at the reduction of political corruption and at increasing the efficiency of government.with the port authority at a distance from political pressures, it was able to carry longer-term infrastructure projects irrespective of the election cycles and in a more efficient manner.in 1972 it was renamed the port authority of new york and new jersey to better reflect its status as a partnership between the two states.throughout its history, there have been concerns about democratic accountability, or lack thereof at the port authority.the port district is irregularly shaped but comprises a 1,500-square-mile (3,900 km2) area roughly within a 25-mile (40 km) radius of the statue of liberty.the initial tunnel crossings were completed privately by the hudson and manhattan railroad in 1908 and 1909 ('hudson tubes'), followed by the pennsylvania railroad in 1910 ('north river tunnels').","port authority of new york and new jersey | headquarter | four world

democracy party, he was its president from 2009 until 2015.samaras started his national political career as minister of finance in 1989; he served as minister of foreign affairs from 1989 to 1992 (with a brief interruption in 1990) and minister of culture in 2009.samaras was previously best known for a 1993 controversy in which he effectively caused the new democracy government, of which he was a member, to fall from power.in spite of this, he rejoined the party in 2004 and was elected to its leadership in a closely fought intra-party election in late 2009.he was the seventh party leader since it was founded in 1974.in 2023, he made controversial statements against both the lgbtqi+ people and the migrants, suggesting that 'they are tearing europe apart'.his brother, alexander, is an architect.his paternal uncle, george samaras, was a long-standing member of parliament for messinia in the 1950s and 1960s.samaras grew up among the athens well-connected families, playing tennis.at the age of 17, he won the greek teen tennis championship.he attended school in the athens college (founded by his maternal great-grandfather, stefanos delta and emmanouil benakis, delta's father-in-law) and graduated from amherst college in 1974 with a degree in economics, and then from harvard university in 1976 with an mba.samaras and former prime minister george papandreou were dormitory roommates during their student years at amherst college, but became bitter political rivals.he is married and has a daughter and a son.in 1989 he became minister of finance, later advancing to become the minister of foreign affairs in the new democracy government of prime minister konstantinos mitsotakis (1990–1993), from which post he caused the macedonia naming dispute to ignite.in a meeting of the greek political leaders under the president of the republic on the naming dispute on 13 april 1992, samaras presented his own conditions for the solution of the crisis.these were rejected by both the president of the republic, konstantinos karamanlis as well as the prime minister, konstantinos mitsotakis.samaras was subsequently removed from minister of foreign affairs.the defection of one member of parliament from new democracy to samaras' party caused the government's fall from power in 1993.political spring gained 4.9% of the vote in the 1993 general election, earning ten seats in the hellenic parliament.they gained 8.7% in the elections in the 1994 european parliament elections, earning two seats.its decline started in the 1996 general election, when it

meps.before the 2004 general election, samaras dissolved his party, rejoined new democracy and he was elected a member of the european parliament (mep) in the 2004 european elections.in the 2007 general election he was elected to the hellenic parliament for messinia and consequently resigned from the european parliament.he was succeeded by margaritis schinas.in january 2009 he was appointed

is a city in the u.s. state of georgia.located on the flint river, it is the seat of dougherty county, and is the sole incorporated city in that county.located in southwest georgia, it is the principal city of the albany, georgia metropolitan area.the population was 77,434 at the 2010 u.s. census, making it the eighth-largest city in the state.it became prominent in the nineteenth century as a shipping and market center, first served by riverboats.scheduled steamboats connected albany with the busy port of apalachicola, florida.they were replaced by railroads.seven lines met in albany, and it was a center of trade in the southeast.it is part of the black belt, the extensive area in the deep south of cotton plantations.from the mid-20th century, it received military investment during world war ii and after, that helped develop the region.albany and this area were prominent during the civil rights era, particularly during the early 1960s as activists worked to regain voting and other civil rights.railroad restructuring and reduction in the military here caused job losses, but the city has developed new businesses.they used it for making arrowheads and other tools.in 1830 congress passed the indian removal act, and the united states made treaties to extinguish creek and other native american land claims in the southeast.the us army forcibly removed most of the native peoples to indian territory, lands west of the mississippi river.tift and his colleagues named the new town albany after the capital of new york; noting that new york's albany was a commercial center located at the headwaters of the hudson river, they hoped that their town near the headwaters of the flint would prove to be just as successful.it proved to be nowhere near as prosperous.alexander shotwell laid out the town in 1836, and it was incorporated as a city by an act of the general assembly of georgia on december 27, 1838.tift was the city's leading entrepreneur for decades.an ardent booster, he promoted education, business, and railroad construction.during the civil war he provided naval supplies and helped build two ships.he opposed radical reconstruction inside the state and in congress, and was scornful of the yankee carpetbaggers who came in.historian john fair concludes that tift became 'more southern than many natives.'his pro-slavery attitudes before the war and his support for segregation afterward made him compatible with georgia's white elite.this area was developed for cotton cultivation by planters, who used numerous enslaved african americans to clear lands and process the cotton.as a result of the planters' acquisition of slave workers, by 1840 dougherty county's majority population was black, composed overwhelmingly of slaves.the market center for cotton plantations, albany was in a prime location for shipping cotton to other markets by steamboats.in 1858, tift hired horace king, a former slave and bridge builder, to construct a toll bridge over the river.king's bridge toll house still stands.already important as a shipping port, albany later became an important railroad hub in southwestern georgia.seven lines were constructed to the town.an exhibit on trains is located at the thronateeska heritage center in the former railroad station.in the early years following the war, styles, like tift, took great exception to the radical reconstruction program then in force, and advocated for a more moderate response based on his interpretation of georgia's rights under the constitution.styles backed 'constitutional reconstruction' advanced by benjamin h. hill and sought support for the idea from the national democratic party.while on a trip to atlanta in may 1868, to meet with democratic party leaders, styles took measure of the contemporary atlanta newspapers, and found them lacking.","albany georgia | leadertitle | mayor","no related information" "saranac lake is a village in the state of new york, united states.as of

the three saranac lakes, lie within the village.the town of saranac is an entirely separate entity, 33 miles (53 km) down the saranac river to the northeast.the village lies within the boundaries of the adirondack park, 9 miles (14 km) west of lake placid.these two villages, along with nearby tupper lake, comprise what is known as the tri-lakes region.saranac lake was named in 1995 the best small

was named one of the 'dozen distinctive destinations' by the national trust for historic preservation.186 buildings in the village are listed on the national register of historic places.the historic mohawk people extended their hunting grounds to this area.the area was first settled by european americans in 1819, more than three decades after the american revolutionary war.as the iroquois, mostly allies of the british, had been forced to cede their land to the united states following the war, millions of acres of new york were opened up to non-native development in the postwar period.the jacob smith moody family from keene, new hampshire, was the first to settle here.in 1827, settlers pliny miller and alric bushnell established a logging facility with a dam and sawmill, around which the village developed.the first school was built in 1838.in 1849, william f. martin built one of the first hotels in the adirondack mountains.his saranac lake house, known simply as 'martin's', was located on the southeast shore of lower saranac lake.martin's soon became a favorite place for hunters, woodsmen, and socialites to meet and interact.in 1876, dr. edward livingston trudeau arrived from new york city to treat his tuberculosis (tb) by a stay in the mountains.there was no medical treatment other than rest and nutrition at the time, and the disease was often fatal.dry, cold air was considered to be good for patients, and sanitariums were also founded in european mountain resorts.trudeau discovered that the fresh air and dry, alpine climate improved his health.in 1884, he founded his adirondack cottage sanitarium, starting with a small cottage, called 'little red'.two sisters from new york city who suffered from tb became the first patients.little red, the first 'cure cottage', was built on a small patch of land on the north side of mount pisgah.the plot had been purchased for trudeau by several of his hunting guides.as more patients visited the region, including author robert louis stevenson in 1887, trudeau's fame grew.soon, the sanitarium had grown to such size that it was entitled to its own post office, which delivered mail to the many patients.","saranac

aires.the provinces and the capital have their own constitutions, but exist under a federal system.argentina claims sovereignty over the falkland islands, south georgia and the south sandwich islands, and a part of antarctica.the earliest recorded human presence in modern-day argentina dates back to the paleolithic period.the inca empire expanded to the northwest of the country in pre-columbian times.the country has its roots in spanish colonization of the region during the 16th century.argentina rose as the successor state of the viceroyalty of the río de la plata, a spanish overseas viceroyalty founded in 1776.the declaration and fight for independence (1810–1818) was followed by an extended civil war that lasted until 1861, culminating in the country's reorganization as a federation.the country thereafter enjoyed relative peace and stability, with several waves of european immigration, mainly italians and spaniards, influencing its culture and demography.the almost-unparalleled increase in prosperity led to argentina becoming the seventh-wealthiest nation in the world by the early 20th century.in 1896, argentina's gdp per capita surpassed that of the united states and was consistently in the top ten before at least 1920.although it remained among the fifteen richest countries for several decades, following the great depression in the 1930s, argentina descended into political instability and economic decline that pushed it back into underdevelopment, being currently ranked 62nd in the world.following the death of president juan perón in 1974, his widow and vice president, isabel perón, ascended to the presidency, before being overthrown in 1976.the following military junta, which was supported by the united states, persecuted and

of the united nations, world bank, world trade organization, mercosur, community of latin american and caribbean states and the organization of ibero-american states.argentina (masculine argentino) means in italian '(made) of silver, silver coloured', derived from the latin 'argentum' for silver.in italian, the adjective or the proper noun is often used in an autonomous way as a substantive and replaces it and it is said l'argentina.the name argentina was probably first given by the venetian and genoese navigators, such as giovanni caboto.in spanish and portuguese, the words for 'silver' are respectively plata and prata and '(made) of silver' is plateado and prateado.argentina was first associated with the silver mountains legend, widespread among the first european explorers of the la plata basin.the first written use of the name in spanish can be traced to la argentina, a 1602 poem by martín del barco centenera describing the region.","argentina | leadername | gabriela

250 distinct language groups by the time of european settlement, maintaining some of the longest known continuing artistic and religious traditions in the world.australia's written history commenced with the european maritime exploration of australia.the dutch navigator willem janszoon was the first known european to reach australia, in 1606.in 1770, the british explorer james cook mapped and claimed the east coast of australia for great britain, and the first fleet of british ships arrived at sydney in 1788 to establish the penal colony of new south wales.the european population grew in subsequent decades, and by the end of the 1850s gold rush, most of the continent had been explored by european settlers and an additional five self-governing british colonies established.democratic parliaments were gradually established through the 19th century, culminating with a vote for the federation of the six colonies and foundation of the commonwealth of australia on 1 january 1901.this began a process of increasing autonomy from the united kingdom, highlighted by the statute of westminster adoption act 1942, and culminating in the australia act 1986.australia is a federal

northern virginia under gen. robert e. lee, included futile frontal attacks by the union army on december 13 against entrenched confederate defenders along the sunken wall on the heights behind the city.it is remembered as one of the most one-sided battles of the war, with union casualties more than twice as heavy as those suffered by the confederates.a visitor to the battlefield described the battle as a 'butchery' to u.s. president abraham lincoln.burnside's plan was to cross the rappahannock river at fredericksburg in mid-november and race to the confederate capital of richmond before lee's army could stop him.bureaucratic delays prevented burnside from receiving the necessary pontoon bridges in time and lee moved his army to block the crossings.when the union army was finally able to build its bridges and cross under fire, direct combat within the city resulted on december 11–12.union troops prepared to assault confederate defensive positions south of the city and on a strongly fortified ridge just west of the city known as marye's heights.on december 13, the left grand division of maj. gen. william b. franklin was able to pierce the first defensive line of confederate lt. gen. stonewall jackson to the south, but was finally repulsed.burnside ordered the right and center grand divisions of major generals edwin v. sumner and joseph hooker to launch multiple frontal assaults against lt. gen. james longstreet's position on marye's heights – all were repulsed with heavy losses.on december 15, burnside withdrew his army, ending another failed union campaign in the eastern theater.confederate armies had been on the move earlier in the fall, invading kentucky and maryland.although each had been turned back, those armies remained intact and capable of further action.lincoln urged major general ulysses s. grant to advance against the confederate stronghold of vicksburg, mississippi.he replaced maj. gen. don carlos buell with maj. gen. william s. rosecrans, hoping for a more aggressive posture against the confederates in tennessee, and on november 5, seeing that his replacement of buell had not stimulated maj. gen. george b. mcclellan into action, he issued orders to replace mcclellan in command of the army of the potomac in virginia.mcclellan had stopped general robert e. lee's forces at the battle of antietam in maryland, but had not been able to destroy lee's army, nor did he pursue lee back into virginia aggressively enough for lincoln.mcclellan's replacement was maj. gen. ambrose burnside, the commander of the ix corps.burnside had established a reputation as an independent commander, with successful operations earlier that year in coastal north carolina and, unlike mcclellan, had no apparent political ambitions.however, he felt himself unqualified for army-level command and objected when offered the position.he accepted only when it was made clear to him that mcclellan would be replaced in any event and that an alternative choice for command was maj. gen. joseph hooker, whom burnside disliked and distrusted.burnside assumed command on november 7.the plan relied on quick movement and deception.he would concentrate his army in a visible fashion near warrenton, feigning a movement on culpeper court house, orange court house or gordonsville.he would then rapidly shift his army southeast and cross the rappahannock river to fredericksburg, hoping that lee would not move, unclear as to burnside's intentions, while the union army made a rapid movement against richmond, south along the richmond, fredericksburg and

18,000 personnel as at 2021and aircraft including 9 chengdu f-7s, 12 dassault-dornier alpha jets, three jf-17 thunder block ii and 12 embraer emb 314 super tucano aircraft, 24 m-346 fas on order, helicopter gunships, armed attack drones, and military transport aircraft.but during peacekeeping operations in congo and tanganyika, the nigerian army had no air transport of its own, and so in 1962, the government began to recruit cadets for pilot training in various foreign countries, with the first ten being taught by the egyptian air force.the act stated that the 'nigerian air force shall be charged with the defense of the federal republic by air, and to give effect thereto, the personnel shall be trained in such duties as in the air as well as on the ground.'the naf was formed with technical assistance from then west germany (now federal republic of germany following the re-unification of west and east germany).the air force started life as a transport unit with the first aircrews trained in canada, ethiopia and india.the head of the german air force assistance group (gafag) was colonel gerhard kahtz, and he became the first commander of the naf.the nucleus of the naf was thus established with the formation of the nigerian air force headquarters at the ministry of defense.the naf did not acquire combat capability until several mikoyan-gurevich mig-17 aircraft were presented by the soviet union in support of nigeria’s war effort during the nigerian civil war.on 13 august 1967, following several damaging attacks by biafran aircraft, the ussr started delivering first mig-17s from egypt to kano iap, simultaneously sending a large shipment aboard a polish merchant ship.initially two mig-15uti (naf601 and naf 602), and eight mig-17 (naf603 to naf610) was supplied to nigeria.later six il-28 bombers, initially flown upon deployment by egyptian and czech pilots, were delivered from egypt and stationed at calabar and port harcourt.other aircraft included six c-47, 20 do-27/28, and eight westland whirlwind and alouette ii helicopters.during the 1970s, nigeria bought lockheed c-130 hercules from the united states.six were acquired at a total cost of $45 million.25 mikoyan-gurevich mig-21mfs and six mig-21um were delivered in 1975 upon the advent of the murtala-obasanjo administration that replaced the regime of general yakubu gowon.most of these aircraft were deployed, making the naf one of the most formidable air forces in africa during this period.jimi peters wrote: '..the 1975-1980 naf development plan restructured naf formations' into group (air force) level units that reported to air force headquarters.that structure, he went on, was found too cumbersome, and thus two intermediate commands (military formations) were formed in 1978: naf tactical air command and naf training command.they retired in 1991.nigeria purchased 24 aero l-39 albatros armed jet trainers in 1986-87, having retired its fleet of l-29 that were donated to the republic of ghana air force at the inception of the west african monitoring group (ecomog) operations in liberia.a subsequent attempt to expand the fleet by acquiring 27 more in 1991 was not executed.the deal included 12 f-7ni (ni-nigeria) single seat fighter variant, and 3 ft-7ni dual-seat trainer aircraft.the $251 million package included $220 million for 15 aircraft, plus $32 million for armaments: live pl-9c aam, training pl-9 rounds, unguided rockets, and 250/500 kg bombs.the pioneer naf pilots on the aircraft trained in china in 2008, while delivery of the aircraft began in

"antioch is the third-largest city in contra costa county, california, united states.the city is located in the east bay region of the san francisco bay area along the sacramento–san joaquin river delta.the city's population was 115,291 at the 2020 census.the city has grown substantially more diverse since the 1970s.the town has been variously named east antioch, smith's landing, and marsh's landing, prior to its current name.in 1848, john marsh, owner of rancho los méganos, one of the largest ranches in california, built a landing on the san joaquin river in what is now antioch.it became known as marsh's landing, and was the shipping point for the 17,000-acre (69 km2) rancho.it included a pier extending well out into the river, enabling vessels drawing 15 feet (4.6 m) of water to tie up there in any season of the year.the landing also included a slaughterhouse, a smokehouse for curing hams, rodeo grounds, and a 1+1⁄2-story dwelling, embellished with fretwork, that was brought around the horn to serve as a home for the mayordomo and his wife.in 1849, twin brothers rev.william wiggins smith and rev.joseph horton smith sailed from boston, purchased land from john marsh and founded a town slightly west of marsh's landing, and named it smith's landing.during the town picnic on july 4, 1851, william, the town's new minister, persuaded the residents to change the name of the town to antioch, for the biblical city of antioch, 'in as much as the first settlers were disciples of christ, and one of them had died and was buried on the land, that it be given a bible name in his honor, and suggested 'antioch' (an ancient syrian town where two important rivers meet and where the followers of christ were first called christians), and by united acclamation it was so christened.'around 1859, coal was discovered in several places in the hills south of antioch, and coal mining formed the first substantial business apart from farming and dairying for the inhabitants of this community.this new industry resulted in the founding of the towns of nortonville, somersville, stewartville, and black diamond (now pittsburg), and added greatly to the economic activity of the antioch area.the empire coal company was formed by john c. rouse and george hawxhurst in 1876, which built a railroad that passed from antioch toward the mines over what is now 'f street' (formerly kimball street).however, later on, both the mine and the railroad passed into the hands of the belshaw brothers.the mines have long since ceased operation, and the railroad tracks have been dug up, though the building that served as the antioch terminus of the railroad still stands on the corner of f street and fourth street, and the grading and trestles still remain much as they were in those early days.in 1863, a great excitement arose over the discovery of copper ore near antioch.smelting works were built at antioch, and the ore fetched $15 to $25 per ton.the copper bubble eventually burst, to the dismay of the citizens, and petroleum was first drilled for near antioch in 1865, but not enough oil was found to make a decent profit.the antioch post office was opened in 1851, closed in 1852, reopened in 1855, closed again in 1862, and has operated continuously since reopening in 1863.the city of antioch was incorporated in 1872.the antioch ledger was first issued on march 10, 1870.to commemorate the paper's formation, a copy of its first issue has been framed and hangs over the desk of the present editor.","antioch california | elevationabovethesealevel |

east bay region of the san francisco bay area along the sacramento–san joaquin river delta.the city's population was 115,291 at the 2020 census.the city has grown substantially more diverse since the 1970s.the town has been variously named east antioch, smith's landing, and marsh's landing, prior to its current name.in 1848, john marsh, owner of rancho los méganos, one of the largest ranches in california, built a landing on the san joaquin river in what is now antioch.it became known as marsh's landing, and was the shipping point for the 17,000-acre (69 km2) rancho.it included a pier extending well out into the river, enabling vessels drawing 15 feet (4.6 m) of water to tie up there in any season of the year.the landing also included a slaughterhouse, a smokehouse for curing hams, rodeo grounds, and a 1+1⁄2-story dwelling, embellished with fretwork, that was brought around the horn to serve as a home for the mayordomo and his wife.in 1849, twin brothers rev.william wiggins smith and rev.joseph horton smith sailed from boston, purchased land from john marsh and founded a town slightly west of marsh's landing, and named it smith's landing.during the town picnic on july 4, 1851, william, the town's new minister, persuaded the residents to change the name of the town to antioch, for the biblical city of antioch, 'in as much as the first settlers were disciples of christ, and one of them had died and was buried on the land, that it be given a bible name in his honor, and suggested 'antioch' (an ancient syrian town where two important rivers meet and where the followers of christ were first called christians), and by united acclamation it was so christened.'around 1859, coal was discovered in several places in the hills south of antioch, and coal mining formed the first substantial business apart from farming and dairying for the inhabitants of this community.this new industry resulted in the founding of the towns of nortonville, somersville, stewartville, and black diamond (now pittsburg), and added greatly to the economic activity of the antioch area.the empire coal company was formed by john c. rouse and george hawxhurst in 1876, which built a railroad that passed from antioch toward the mines over what is now 'f street' (formerly kimball street).however, later on, both the mine and the railroad passed into the hands of the belshaw brothers.the mines have long since ceased operation, and the railroad tracks have been dug up, though the building that served as the antioch terminus of the railroad still stands on the corner of f street and fourth street, and the grading and trestles still remain much as they were in those early days.in 1863, a great excitement arose over the discovery of copper ore near antioch.smelting works were built at antioch, and the ore fetched $15 to $25 per ton.the copper bubble eventually burst, to the dismay of the citizens, and petroleum was first drilled for near antioch in 1865, but not enough oil was found to make a decent profit.the antioch post office was opened in 1851, closed in 1852, reopened in 1855, closed again in 1862, and has operated continuously since reopening in 1863.the city of antioch was incorporated in 1872.the antioch ledger was first issued on march 10, 1870.to commemorate the paper's formation, a copy of its first issue has been framed and hangs over the desk of the present editor.","antioch california | leadertitle | californias 11th state assembly district","antioch is the third-largest city in contra costa county, california, united states." "plants are predominantly photosynthetic eukaryotes, forming the kingdom plantae.many are multicellular.historically, the plant kingdom encompassed all living things that were not animals, and included algae and fungi.all current definitions exclude the fungi and some of the algae.by one definition, plants form the clade viridiplantae (latin for 'green plants') which consists of the green algae and the embryophytes or land plants.the latter include hornworts, liverworts, mosses, lycophytes, ferns, conifers and other gymnosperms, and flowering plants.a definition based on genomes includes the viridiplantae, along with the red algae and the glaucophytes, in the clade archaeplastida.green plants obtain most of their energy from sunlight, using chloroplasts derived from endosymbiosis with cyanobacteria.chloroplasts perform photosynthesis using the pigment chlorophyll, which gives them their green colour.some plants are parasitic and have lost the ability to produce normal amounts of chlorophyll or to photosynthesize.plants are characterized by sexual reproduction and alternation of generations, but asexual reproduction is also common.there are about 380,000

from paolo suárez in the 51st minute.they narrowly missed a repeat that spring in the clausura, losing 2–1 to áquila in the championship match.however, they recovered to win a seventh championship in nine years, defeating alianza in extra time to win the apertura 2012.for a moment it looked like the hero would be metapán's top goal scorer nicolás muñoz, who scored from a free kick in extra time.however sean fraser of alianza equalized with a header, forcing the match into penalties.","ad isidro metapán | fullname | asociación deportiva","no related information" "california is a state in

the other 10% lies within dekalb county.fulton county is part of the atlanta-sandy springs-roswell, ga metropolitan statistical area.it was named in honor of robert fulton, the man who created the first commercially successful steamboat in 1807.after the american civil war, there was considerable violence against freedmen in the county.during the post-reconstruction period, violence and the number of lynchings of blacks increased in the late 19th century, as whites exercised terrorism to re-establish and maintain white supremacy.whites lynched 35 african americans here from 1877 to 1950; according to the georgia lynching project, 24 were killed in 1906.this was the highest total in the state.with a total of 589, georgia was second to mississippi in its total number of lynchings in this period.in addition to individual lynchings, during the atlanta race riot of 1906, whites killed at least 25 african americans; the number may have been considerably higher.two white persons died during the riot; one a woman who died of a heart attack.the violence affected black residential and business development in the city afterward.the georgia legislature effectively completed disenfranchisement of african americans in 1908, with constitutional amendments that raised barriers to voter registration and voting, excluding them from the political system.at the beginning of 1932, as an austerity measure to save money during the great depression, fulton county annexed milton county to the north and campbell county to the southwest, to centralize administration.that resulted in the current long shape of the county along 80 miles (130 km) of the chattahoochee river.on may 9 of that year, neighboring cobb county ceded the city of roswell and lands lying east of willeo creek to fulton county so that it would be more contiguous with the lands ceded from milton county.in the second half of the 20th century, atlanta and fulton county became the location of numerous national and international headquarters for leading companies, attracting highly skilled employees from around the country.this led to the city and county becoming more cosmopolitan and diverse.in 1992, fulton county elected the first african-american woman, jacquelyn harrison barrett, to the position of sheriff in the history of the united states.the county is located in the piedmont region of the state in the foothills of the blue ridge mountains to the north.the shape of the county resembles a sword with its handle at the northeastern part, and the tip at the southwestern portion.going from north to south, the northernmost portion of fulton county, encompassing milton and northern alpharetta, is located in the etowah river sub-basin of the act river basin (alabama-coosa-tallapoosa river basin).the rest of north and central fulton, to downtown atlanta, is located in the upper chattahoochee river sub-basin of the acf river basin (apalachicola-chattahoochee-flint river basin).the bulk of south fulton county, from atlanta to palmetto, is located in the middle chattahoochee river-lake harding sub-basin of the larger acf river basin, with just the eastern edges of south fulton, from palmetto northeast through union hill to hapeville, in the upper flint river sub-basin of the same larger acf river basin.the population density was 1,748.0 inhabitants per square mile (674.9/km2).there were 437,105 housing units at an average density of 830.0 per square mile (320.5/km2).","fulton county georgia | largestcity | atlanta","its county seat and largest city is atlanta, the state capital.approximately 90% of the city of atlanta is within fulton county;

"hip hop music or hip-hop music, also known as rap music and formerly known as disco rap, is a genre of popular music that originated in the bronx borough of new york city in the early 1970s by african americans, and it had been around for years prior before mainstream discovery.this genre of music originated as anti-drug and anti-violence, while consisting of stylized rhythmic music (usually built around drum beats) that commonly accompanies rapping, a rhythmic and rhyming speech that is chanted.according to the professor asante of african american studies at temple university, 'hip hop is something that blacks can unequivocally claim as their own'.it was developed as part of hip hop culture, a subculture defined by four key stylistic elements: mcing/rapping, djing/scratching with turntables, break dancing, and graffiti art.other elements include sampling beats or bass lines from records (or synthesized beats and sounds), and rhythmic beatboxing.while often used to refer solely to rapping, 'hip hop' more properly denotes the practice of the entire subculture.the term hip hop music is sometimes used synonymously with the term rap music, though rapping is not a required component of hip hop music; the genre may also incorporate other elements of hip hop culture, including djing, turntablism, scratching, beatboxing, and instrumental tracks.hip hop as both a musical genre and a culture was formed during the 1970s when block parties became increasingly popular in new york city, particularly among african american youth residing in the bronx.at block parties, djs played percussive breaks of popular songs using two turntables and a dj mixer to be able to play breaks from two copies of the same record, alternating from one to the other and extending the 'break'.hip hop's early evolution occurred as sampling technology and drum machines became widely available and affordable.turntablist techniques such as scratching and beatmatching developed along with the breaks.rapping developed as a vocal style in which the artist speaks or chants along rhythmically with an instrumental or synthesized beat.hip hop music was not officially recorded for play on radio or television until 1979, largely due to poverty during the genre's birth and lack of acceptance outside ghetto neighborhoods.old school hip hop was the first mainstream wave of the genre, marked by its disco influence and party-oriented lyrics.the 1980s marked the diversification of hip hop as the genre developed more complex styles and spread around the world.new school hip hop was the genre's second wave, marked by its electro sound, and led into golden age hip hop, an innovative period between the mid-1980s and mid-1990s that also developed hip hop's own album era.the gangsta rap subgenre, focused on the violent lifestyles and impoverished conditions of inner-city african american youth, gained popularity at this time.west coast hip hop was dominated by g-funk in the early-mid 1990s, while east coast hip hop was dominated by jazz rap, alternative hip hop, and hardcore hip hop.hip hop continued to diversify at this time with other regional styles emerging, such as southern rap and atlanta hip hop.hip hop became a best-selling genre in the mid-1990s and the top-selling music genre by 1999.the popularity of hip hop music continued through the late 1990s to early-2000s 'bling era' with hip hop influences increasingly finding their way into other genres of popular music, such as neo soul, nu metal, and r&b.the united states also saw the success of regional styles such as crunk, a southern genre that emphasized the beats and music more than the lyrics, and alternative hip hop began to secure a place in the mainstream, due in part to the crossover success of its artists.","hip hop music | musicsubgenre | gangsta rap","hip hop music or hip-hop music, also known as rap music and formerly known as disco rap, is a genre of popular music that originated in the bronx borough of new york city in the early 1970s by african americans, and it had been around for years prior before mainstream discovery.this genre of music originated as anti-drug and anti-violence, while consisting of stylized rhythmic music (usually built around drum beats) that commonly accompanies rapping, a rhythmic and rhyming speech that is chanted.it was developed as part of hip hop culture, a subculture defined by four key stylistic elements: mcing/rapping, djing/scratching with turntables, break dancing, and graffiti art.while often used to refer solely to rapping, 'hip hop' more properly denotes the practice of the entire subculture.the term hip hop music is sometimes used synonymously with the term rap music, though rapping is not a required component of hip hop music;

to stand out in the entire brazilian northeast.the company camilo colier was building the railway and that required the work of many people.and these people were looking for some fun on days off.and at the request of the employees, the company's management decided to build a soccer field.the team was formed, which obtained the suggestive name of ferroviário, with the colors black and white.the city's sunday afternoons became busier, as its inhabitants had the right place to go, the station field.but the construction of the railway was completed.the team ended and sunday afternoon fun was gone.businessmen and city officials were not content with the void caused by the lack of football.after several discussions, on 25 september 1952, the associação sportiva de arapiraca, was the asa

flagship labels, alongside rca's former long-time rival columbia records; also arista records, and epic records.the label has released multiple genres of music, including pop, classical, rock, hip hop, afrobeat, electronic, r&b, blues, jazz, and country.its name is derived from the initials of its defunct parent company, the radio corporation of america (rca).rca records was fully acquired by bertelsmann in 1987, making it a part of bertelsmann music group (bmg) and became a part of sony bmg music entertainment after the 2004 merger of bmg and sony; it was acquired by the latter in 2008, after the dissolution of sony/bmg and the restructuring of sony music.rca records is the corporate successor of the victor talking machine company, founded in 1901, making it the second-oldest record label in american history, after sister label columbia records, founded in 1889.the company then became rca victor.in absorbing victor, rca acquired the new world rights to the famous nipper/'his master's voice' trademark.in 1931, rca victor's british affiliate the gramophone company merged with the columbia graphophone company to form emi.this gave rca head david sarnoff a seat on the emi board.in september 1931, rca victor introduced the first 331⁄3 rpm records sold to the public, calling them 'program transcriptions'.these used a shallower and more closely spaced implementation of the large 'standard groove' found on contemporary 78 rpm records, rather than the 'microgroove' used for post-world war ii 331⁄3 rpm 'lp' (long play) records.the format was a commercial failure, partly because the new victrolas with two-speed turntables designed to play these records were exorbitantly priced, the least expensive model retailing for $395.00 in the depths of the great depression.the format was abandoned by 1933, and two-speed turntables were no longer offered, but some program transcriptions lingered in the victor record catalog until the end of the 1930s.during the early part of the depression, rca victor made a number of attempts to create a successful cheap label to compete with the 'dime store labels' (perfect, oriole, banner, melotone, etc.).the first was the short-lived 'timely tunes' label in 1931 sold at montgomery ward.bluebird records was created in 1932 as a sub-label of rca victor.it was originally an 8-inch record with a dark blue label, alongside an 8-inch electradisk label (sold at woolworth's).neither were a success.in 1933, rca victor reintroduced bluebird and electradisk as a standard 10-inch label (bluebird's label was redesigned, and it became known as the 'buff' label).another cheap label, sunrise, was produced (although nobody seems to know for whom it was produced, as sunrise records are exceptionally rare today).the same musical couplings were issued on all three labels and the bluebird label still survives today, nine decades after electradisk and sunrise were discontinued.rca victor also produced inexpensive records for montgomery ward during the 1930s.rca's midwestern plant in indianapolis, at 501 north lasalle street (the site is now part of a demolition and blight reduction project).the custom division notably pressed many record compilations for the reader's digest association.rca also manufactured and distributed hmv recordings on the rca victor and custom hmv labels in north america.jvc's record company is known today as victor entertainment and still retains the nipper/his master's voice trademark for use in japan.from 1942 to 1944, rca victor was seriously impacted by the american federation of musicians recording ban.virtually all union musicians in the us and canada were forbidden from making recordings during the period.","rca records | distributingcompany |

and the poet william blake.everett's father ran a successful trucking business, and when everett was young the family bought a large summer home in kennebunkport, maine.both parents supported the artistic talents of their son, whose reading tastes ran to the classics rather than pulp novels or comic strips, and included work by samuel taylor coleridge and jack london.he would later find artistic influence in such commercial magazine artists as mead schaeffer, dean cornwell, and especially floyd macmillan davis.at 12, in 1929, everett contracted tuberculosis, and was pulled from sixth grade to go with his mother and his sister to arizona, to recuperate for four months.they then returned to massachusetts, but a recurrence of the disease sent the trio back west, first to prescott, arizona, and then to wickenburg, 60 miles away.there, taking his first drink, everett began the path to teenage alcoholism.nonetheless, he became well enough by 16 to return home with his mother and sister to the boston area, where his father, unscathed by the great depression, had a large house in west newton.his alcoholism and natural rebelliousness caused his parents to remove him from high school at age 16, in his second year, and enroll him in 1934 at boston's vesper george school of art.his inability to focus, however, led him to drop out in 1935, after a year-and-a-half of the program.that same year, his father died of acute appendicitis, and the family, though remaining well-off, moved to an apartment back in cambridge.everett knew his father 'always wanted me to be a cartoonist, and he died, unfortunately, before he saw that come true.but that was probably in back of the whole thing.'soon afterward, he left to become a draftsman for the civil engineering firm the brooks system, in newton, massachusetts.from there he pursued work in phoenix, arizona, and los angeles, california, without success.he then returned east to new york city, where he again did newspaper advertising art, for the new york herald-tribune.he next became art editor for teck publications' radio news magazine, then assistant art director under herm bollin in chicago, illinois.fired for being, as everett described, 'too cocky', he returned to new york where he sought employment as an art director.with no luck at this and desperate for work, he ran into an old teck colleague, walter holze, who was now working in the new field of comic books.as everett recalled in the late 1960s, 'he asked me if i could do comics.i said, 'sure!!'","bill everett | award | eisner award","no related information" "the united kingdom of great britain and northern ireland, simply known as the united kingdom (uk) or britain, is a country in northwestern europe, off the north-western coast of the continental mainland.it comprises england, scotland, wales and northern ireland.it includes the island of great britain, the north-eastern part of the island of ireland, and most of the smaller islands within the british isles.northern ireland shares a land border with the republic of ireland;

systems, used in painting and color printing, it is created by a combination of yellow and cyan; in the rgb color model, used on television and computer screens, it is one of the additive primary colors, along with red and blue, which are mixed in different combinations to create all other colors.by far the largest contributor to green in nature is chlorophyll, the chemical by which plants photosynthesize and convert sunlight into chemical energy.many creatures have adapted to their green environments by taking on a green hue themselves as camouflage.several minerals have a green color, including the emerald, which is colored green by its chromium content.during post-classical and early modern europe, green was the color commonly associated with wealth, merchants, bankers, and the gentry, while red was reserved for the nobility.for this reason, the costume of the mona lisa by leonardo da vinci and the benches in the british house of commons are green while those in the house of lords are red.it also has a long historical tradition as the color of ireland and of gaelic culture.it is the historic color of islam, representing the lush vegetation of paradise.it was the color of the banner of muhammad, and is found in the flags of nearly all islamic countries.in surveys made in american, european, and islamic countries, green is the color most commonly associated with nature, life, health, youth, spring, hope, and envy.in the european union and the united states, green is also sometimes associated with toxicity and poor health, but in china and most of asia, its associations are very positive, as the symbol of fertility and happiness.because of its association with nature, it is the color of the environmental movement.political groups advocating environmental protection and social justice describe themselves as part of the green movement, some naming themselves green parties.this has led to similar campaigns in advertising, as companies have sold green, or environmentally friendly, products.green is also the traditional color of safety and permission; a green light means go ahead, a green card permits permanent residence in the united states.it is from a common germanic *gronja-, which is also reflected in old norse grænn, old high german gruoni (but unattested in east germanic), ultimately from a pie root *ghre- 'to grow', and root-cognate with grass and to grow.the first recorded use of the word as a color term in old english dates to ca.ad 700.latin with viridis also has a genuine and widely used term for 'green'.related to virere 'to grow' and ver 'spring', it gave rise to words in several romance languages, french vert, italian verde (and english vert, verdure etc.).likewise the slavic languages with zelenъ.ancient greek also had a term for yellowish, pale green – χλωρός, chloros (cf.the color of chlorine), cognate with χλοερός 'verdant' and χλόη 'chloe, the green of new growth'.thus, the languages mentioned above (germanic, romance, slavic, greek) have old terms for 'green' which are derived from words for fresh, sprouting vegetation.however, comparative linguistics makes clear that these terms were coined independently, over the past few millennia, and there is no identifiable single proto-indo-european or word for 'green'.for example, the slavic zelenъ is cognate with sanskrit hari 'yellow, ochre, golden'.the turkic languages also have jašɨl 'green' or 'yellowish green', compared to a mongolian word for 'meadow'.the chinese character 青 (pronounced qīng in mandarin, ao in japanese, and thanh in sino-vietnamese) has a meaning that covers both blue and green; blue and green are traditionally considered shades of '青'.","greece | leader | nikos voutsis","no related information" "apollo 1, initially designated as-204, was the first crewed mission of the apollo program, the american undertaking to land the first man on the moon.it was planned to launch on february 21, 1967, as the first low earth orbital test of the apollo command and service module.the mission never flew; a cabin fire during a launch rehearsal test at cape kennedy air force station launch complex 34 on january 27 killed all three crew members—command pilot gus grissom, senior pilot ed white, and pilot roger b. chaffee—and destroyed the command module (cm).the name apollo 1, chosen by the crew, was made official by nasa in their honor after the fire.immediately after the fire, nasa convened an accident review board to determine the cause of the fire, and both chambers of the united states congress conducted their own committee inquiries to oversee nasa's investigation.the ignition source of the fire was determined to be electrical, and the fire spread rapidly due to combustible nylon material and the high-pressure pure oxygen cabin atmosphere.rescue was prevented by the plug door hatch, which could not be opened against the internal pressure of the cabin.because the rocket was unfueled, the test had not been considered hazardous, and emergency preparedness for it was poor.during the congressional investigation, senator walter mondale publicly revealed a nasa internal document citing problems with prime apollo contractor north american aviation, which became known as the phillips report.this disclosure embarrassed nasa administrator james e. webb, who was unaware of the document's existence, and attracted controversy to the apollo program.despite congressional displeasure at nasa's lack of openness, both congressional committees ruled that the issues raised in the report had no bearing on the accident.crewed apollo flights were suspended for twenty months while the command module's hazards were addressed.however, the development and uncrewed testing of the lunar module (lm) and saturn v rocket continued.the saturn ib launch vehicle for apollo 1, sa-204, was used for the first lm test flight, apollo 5.the first successful crewed apollo mission was flown by apollo 1's backup crew on apollo 7 in october 1968.as-204 was to test launch operations, ground tracking and control facilities and the performance of the apollo-saturn launch assembly and would have lasted up to two weeks, depending on how the spacecraft performed.the csm for this flight, number 012 built by north american aviation (naa), was a block i version designed before the lunar orbit rendezvous landing strategy was chosen; therefore it lacked the capability of docking with the lunar module.this was incorporated into the block ii csm design, along with lessons learned in block i.block ii would be test-flown with the lm when the latter was ready.director of flight crew operations deke slayton selected the first apollo crew in january 1966, with grissom as command pilot, white as senior pilot, and rookie donn f. eisele as pilot.but eisele dislocated his shoulder twice aboard the kc-135 weightlessness training aircraft, and had to undergo surgery on january 27.slayton replaced him with chaffee, and nasa announced the crew selection on march 21, 1966.james mcdivitt, david scott and russell schweickart were named as the backup crew.on september 29, walter schirra, eisele, and walter cunningham were named as the prime crew for a second block i csm flight, as-205.nasa planned to follow this with an uncrewed test flight of the lm (as-206), then the third crewed mission would be a dual flight designated as-278 (or as-207/208), in which as-207 would launch the first crewed block ii csm, which would then rendezvous and dock with the lm launched uncrewed on as-208.in march, nasa was studying

by nasa from the kennedy space center, florida.commander charles 'pete' conrad and lunar module pilot alan l. bean performed just over one day and seven hours of lunar surface activity while command module pilot richard f. gordon remained in lunar orbit.apollo 12 would have attempted the first lunar landing had apollo 11 failed, but after the success of neil armstrong's mission, apollo 12 was postponed by two months, and other apollo missions also put on a more relaxed schedule.more time was allotted for geologic training in preparation for apollo 12 than for apollo 11, conrad and bean making several geology field trips in preparation for their mission.apollo 12's spacecraft and launch vehicle were almost identical to apollo 11's.one addition was hammocks to allow conrad and bean to rest more comfortably on the moon.shortly after being launched on a rainy day at kennedy space center, apollo 12 was twice struck by lightning, causing instrumentation problems but little damage.switching to the auxiliary power supply resolved the data relay problem, saving the mission.the outward journey to the moon otherwise saw few problems.on november 19, conrad and bean achieved a precise landing at their expected location within walking distance of the surveyor 3 robotic probe, which had landed on april 20, 1967.in making a pinpoint landing, they showed that nasa could plan future missions in the expectation that astronauts could land close to sites of scientific interest.conrad and bean carried the apollo lunar surface experiments package, a group of nuclear-powered scientific instruments, as well as the first color television camera taken by an apollo mission to the lunar surface, but transmission was lost after bean accidentally pointed the camera at the sun and its sensor was destroyed.on the second of two moonwalks, they visited surveyor 3 and removed parts for return to earth.lunar module intrepid lifted off from the moon on november 20 and docked with the command module, which subsequently traveled back to earth.the apollo 12 mission ended on november 24 with a successful splashdown.after receiving a bachelor's degree in aeronautical engineering from princeton university in 1953, he became a naval aviator, and completed united states naval test pilot school at patuxent river naval air station.he was selected in the second group of astronauts in 1962, and flew on gemini 5 in 1965, and as command pilot of gemini 11 in 1966.command module pilot richard 'dick' gordon, 40 years old at the time of apollo 12, also became a naval aviator in 1953, following graduation from the university of washington with a degree in chemistry, and completed test pilot school at patuxent river.selected as a group 3 astronaut in 1963, he flew with conrad on gemini 11.the original lunar module pilot assigned to work with conrad was clifton c. williams jr., who was killed in october 1967 when the t-38 he was flying crashed near tallahassee.when forming his crew, conrad had wanted alan l. bean, a former student of his at the test pilot school, but had been told by director of flight crew operations deke slayton that bean was unavailable due to an assignment to the apollo applications program.after williams's death, conrad asked for bean again, and this time slayton yielded.bean, 37 years old when the mission flew, had graduated from the

leader and its subsequent expansion to a major pop-culture conglomerate.his younger brother sal buscema is also a comic book artist.buscema is best known for his run on the series the avengers and the silver surfer, and for over 200 stories featuring the sword-and-sorcery hero conan the barbarian.in addition, he pencilled at least one issue of nearly every major marvel title, including long runs on two of the company's top magazines, fantastic four and thor.he was inducted into the will eisner comic book hall of fame in 2002.in his teens, he developed an interest in both superhero comic books and such adventure comic strips as hal foster's tarzan and prince valiant, burne hogarth's tarzan, alex raymond's flash gordon, and milton caniff's terry and the pirates.he showed an interest in commercial illustration of the period, by such artists as n. c. wyeth, norman rockwell, dean cornwell, coby whitmore, albert dorne, and robert fawcett.buscema graduated from manhattan's high school of music and art.he took night lessons at pratt institute as well as life drawing classes at the brooklyn museum.while training as a boxer, he began painting portraits of boxers and sold some cartoons to the hobo news.seeking work as a commercial illustrator while doing various odd jobs, buscema found himself instead entering the comic book field in 1948, landing a staff job under editor-in-chief and art director stan lee at timely comics, the forerunner of marvel comics.the timely 'bullpen', as the staff was called, included such fellow staffers as established veterans syd shores, carl burgos, mike sekowsky, george klein, and marty nodell.fellow newcomer gene colan, hired roughly two months earlier, recalled that '... john never seemed very happy in comics ... there always seemed to be something else he really wanted to do.'his first recorded credit is penciling the four-page story 'till crime do you part' in timely's lawbreakers always lose #3 (aug. 1948).he contributed to the 'real-life' dramatic series true adventures and man comics (the premiere issue of which sported one of buscema's earliest recorded comic book covers), as well as to cowboy romances, two-gun western (for which he drew at least one story of the continuing character the apache kid), lorna the jungle queen, and strange tales.until the bullpen was dissolved a year-and-a-half later, as comic books in general and superhero comics in particular continued their post-war fade in popularity, buscema penciled and inked in a variety of genres, including crime fiction and romance fiction.he continued to freelance for timely, by now known as atlas comics, as well as for the publishers ace comics, hillman periodicals, our publications/orbit, quality comics, st. john publications, and ziff-davis.buscema's mid-1950s work includes dell comics' roy rogers comics #74–91 (feb. 1954 – july 1955) and subsequent roy rogers and trigger #92–97 and #104–108 (aug. 1955 – jan. 1956 & aug.–dec.1956); and the charlton comics series ramar of the jungle and nature boy — the latter, buscema's first superhero work, with a character created by himself and superman co-creator jerry siegel.buscema next produced a series of western, war, and sword and sandal film adaptations for dell's four color series.buscema recalled, 'i did a bunch of their movie books ... that was a lot of

command and service module.the mission never flew; a cabin fire during a launch rehearsal test at cape kennedy air force station launch complex 34 on january 27 killed all three crew members—command pilot gus grissom, senior pilot ed white, and pilot roger b. chaffee—and destroyed the command module (cm).the name apollo 1, chosen by the crew, was made official by nasa in their honor after the fire.immediately after the fire, nasa convened an accident review board to determine the cause of the fire, and both chambers of the united states congress conducted their own committee inquiries to oversee nasa's investigation.the ignition source of the fire was determined to be electrical, and the fire spread rapidly due to combustible nylon material and the high-pressure pure oxygen cabin atmosphere.rescue was prevented by the plug door hatch, which could not be opened against the internal pressure of the cabin.because the rocket was unfueled, the test had not been considered hazardous, and emergency preparedness for it was poor.during the congressional investigation, senator walter mondale publicly revealed a nasa internal document citing problems with prime apollo contractor north american aviation, which became known as the phillips report.this disclosure embarrassed nasa administrator james e. webb, who was unaware of the document's existence, and attracted controversy to the apollo program.despite congressional displeasure at nasa's lack of openness, both congressional committees ruled that the issues raised in the report had no bearing on the accident.crewed apollo flights were suspended for twenty months while the command module's hazards were addressed.however, the development and uncrewed testing of the lunar module (lm) and saturn v rocket continued.the saturn ib launch vehicle for apollo 1, sa-204, was used for the first lm test flight, apollo 5.the first successful crewed apollo mission was flown by apollo 1's backup crew on apollo 7 in october 1968.as-204 was to test launch operations, ground tracking and control facilities and the performance of the apollo-saturn launch assembly and would have lasted up to two weeks, depending on how the spacecraft performed.the csm for this flight, number 012 built by north american aviation (naa), was a block i version designed before the lunar orbit rendezvous landing strategy was chosen; therefore it lacked the capability of docking with the lunar module.this was incorporated into the block ii csm design, along with lessons learned in block i.block ii would be test-flown with the lm when the latter was ready.director of flight crew operations deke slayton selected the first apollo crew in january 1966, with grissom as command pilot, white as senior pilot, and rookie

pronunciation: [miːlan]), is a professional football club in milan, italy, founded in 1899.the club has spent its entire history, with the exception of the 1980–81 and 1982–83 seasons, in the top flight of italian football, known as serie a since 1929–30.ac milan's 18 fifa and uefa trophies is the fourth highest out of any club (joint with boca juniors), and the most out of any italian club.milan has won a joint record three intercontinental cups and one fifa club world cup, seven european cup/champions league titles (italian record), the uefa super cup a joint record five times and the cup winners' cup twice.with 19 league titles, milan is tied as the second most successful club in serie a with local rivals inter milan (also with 19 league titles), behind juventus (36 league titles).they have also won the coppa italia five times, and the supercoppa italiana seven.milan's home games are played at san siro, also known as the stadio giuseppe meazza.the stadium, which was built by milan's second chairman piero pirelli in 1926 and is shared since 1947 with city rivals internazionale, is the largest in italian football, with a total capacity of 75,817.they have a long-standing rivalry with inter, with whom they contest the derby della madonnina which is one of the most followed derbies in football.the club is one of the wealthiest in italian and world football.it was a founding member of the now-defunct g-14 group of europe's leading football clubs as well as its replacement, the european club association.the club claims 16 december of that year as their foundation date, but historical evidence seems to suggest that the club was actually founded a few days earlier, most likely on 13 december.however, with the club's charter being lost, the exact date remains open to debate.in honour of its english origins, the club has retained the english spelling of the city's name, as opposed to the italian spelling milano, which it was forced to bear under the fascist regime.milan won its first italian championship in 1901, interrupting a three-year hegemony of genoa, and a further two in succession in 1906 and 1907.the club proved successful in the first decade of its existence, with several important trophies won, including, among others, the medaglia del re three times, the palla dapples 23 times and the fgni tournament five times, a competition organized by the italian gymnastics federation but not officially recognized by the italian football federation.in 1908, milan experienced a split caused by internal disagreements over the signing of foreign players, which led to the forming of another milan-based team, f.c.internazionale milano.following these events, milan did not manage to win a single domestic title until 1950–51, with some exceptions represented by the 1915–16 coppa federale and the 1917–18 coppa mauro, two tournaments played during the first world war which, especially the former, received a lot of attention and proved to be highly competitive, despite them not being officially recognized by the italian federation.this was one of the club's most successful periods domestically, with the scudetto going to milan in 1951, 1955, 1957 and 1959.this decade witnessed also the first european successes of milan, with the triumphs in the 1951 and 1956 latin cup.milan was also the first italian club to take part to the newly born european cup in the 1955–56 season, and reached the final two years later, when they were defeated by real madrid.","ac milan | chairman | silvio berlusconi","no related information"

"the avocado (persea americana) is a medium-sized, evergreen tree in the laurel family (lauraceae).it is native to the americas and was first domesticated by mesoamerican tribes more than 5,000 years ago.then as now it was prized for its large and unusually oily fruit.the tree likely originated in the highlands bridging south-central mexico and guatemala.its fruit, sometimes also referred to as an alligator pear or avocado pear, is botanically a large berry containing a single large seed.avocado trees are partly self-pollinating, and are often propagated through grafting to maintain consistent fruit output.avocados are presently cultivated in the tropical and mediterranean climates of many countries.mexico is the world's leading producer of avocados as of 2020, supplying nearly 30% of the global harvest in that year.the fruit of domestic varieties have smooth, buttery, golden-green flesh when ripe.depending on the cultivar, avocados have green, brown, purplish, or black skin, and may be pear-shaped, egg-shaped, or spherical.for commercial purposes the fruits are picked while unripe and ripened after harvesting.the nutrient density and extremely high fat content of avocado flesh are useful to a variety of cuisines and are often eaten to enrich vegetarian diets.in major production regions like chile, mexico and california the water demands of avocado farms place strain on local sources.avocado production is also implicated in other externalities, including deforestation and human rights concerns associated with the partial control of their production in mexico by organized crime.global warming is expected to result in significant changes to the suitable growing zones for avocados, and place additional pressures on the locales in which they are produced due to heat waves and drought.the leaves are 7.62–25 cm (3–10 in) long and alternately arranged.the tree flowers thousands of blossoms every year.avocado blossoms sprout from racemes near the leaf axils; they are small and inconspicuous 5–10 mm (3⁄16–3⁄8 in) wide.they have no petals but instead 2 whorls of 3 pale-green or greenish-yellow downy perianth lobes, each blossom has 9 stamens with 2 basal orange nectar glands.the pear-shaped fruit is usually 7–20 cm (3–8 in) long, weighs between 100 and 1,000 g (3+1⁄2 and 35+1⁄2 oz), and has a large central seed, 5–6.4 cm (2–2+1⁄2 in) long.the species produces various cultivars with larger, fleshier fruits with a thinner exocarp because of selective breeding by humans.however, there is evidence for three possible separate domestications of the avocado, resulting in the currently recognized mexican (aoacatl), guatemalan (quilaoacatl), and west indian (tlacacolaocatl) landraces.the mexican and guatemalan landraces originated in the highlands of those countries, while the west indian landrace is a lowland variety that ranges from guatemala, costa rica, colombia, ecuador to peru, achieving a wide range through human agency before the arrival of the europeans.the three separate landraces were most likely to have already intermingled in pre-columbian america and were described in the florentine codex.the earliest residents of northern coastal peru were living in temporary camps in an ancient wetland and eating avocados, along with chilies, mollusks, sharks, birds, and sea lions.the oldest discovery of an avocado pit comes from coxcatlan cave, dating from around 9,000 to 10,000 years ago.other caves in the tehuacan valley from around the same time period also show early evidence for the presence and consumption of avocado.there is evidence for avocado use at norte chico civilization sites in peru by at least 3,200 years ago and at caballo muerto in peru from around 3,800 to 4,500 years ago.the native, undomesticated variety is known as a criollo, and is small, with dark black skin, and contains a large seed.","avocado | genus | persea","the avocado (persea americana) is a medium-sized, evergreen tree in the laurel family (lauraceae)."

"bandeja paisa (paisa refers to a person from the paisa region and bandeja is spanish for platter), with variations known as bandeja de arriero, bandeja montañera, or bandeja antioqueña, is one of the most representative meals in colombian cuisine, especially of the antioquia department and the paisa region, as well as with the colombian coffee-growers axis (the departments of caldas, quindío and risaralda), and part of valle del cauca and the northwest of tolima.the main characteristic of this dish is the generous amount and variety of food in a traditional bandeja paisa: red beans cooked with pork, white rice, carne molida (ground meat), chicharrón, fried egg, plantain (plátano maduro), chorizo, arepa, hogao sauce, black pudding (morcilla), avocado and lemon.it is served in a platter or a tray.in the 19th century, french and british colonialists also brought their cuisine with them.the current form and presentation of the paisa platter is relatively recent.there are no references in the food writing about this dish before 1950.it is probably an interpretation of the local restaurants of simpler peasant dishes.one of its most prominent features is the juxtaposition of native american and european ingredients, which is also observed in other mestizo dishes of latin american cuisine, such as venezuelan pabellón criollo or costa rican gallo pinto.side dishes include mazamorra (a maize-derived beverage similar to atole) with milk and ground panela.there are several variants of the dish all over the country with deletion or addition of ingredients, which cannot be recognized as bandeja paisa in the strictest sense.some antioquian restaurants offer an 'extended' bandeja paisa, also known as 'seven meats platter', which contains, besides the aforementioned ingredients, grilled steak, grilled pork and liver.a diet-friendly version of the dish is very popular in bogotá, which replaces pork with grilled chicken breast, black pudding with salad and chorizo with a wiener.a number of people opposed this designation, arguing that only a small percentage of the colombian population consumes it on a regular basis and that it originated in a single region of colombia (antioquia).however, the suggested alternative, sancocho, is not a distinctively colombian dish, as it is known and enjoyed in many other countries, such as cuba, venezuela, the canary islands, puerto rico, the dominican republic and panama.due to the widespread ubiquity of sancocho, often colombian ajiaco is instead considered the most indicative colombian dish.nonetheless, the commercial colombian tourism industry has pushed ahead without official government sanction by emblazoning ads, menus, and brochure information with imagery of the bandeja paisa as the single most typical colombian dish.","bandeja paisa | ingredient | chorizo","the main characteristic of this dish is the generous amount and variety of food in a traditional bandeja paisa: red beans cooked with pork, white rice, carne molida (ground meat), chicharrón, fried egg, plantain (plátano maduro), chorizo, arepa, hogao sauce, black pudding (morcilla), avocado and lemon."

"a desert is a barren area of landscape where little precipitation occurs and, consequently, living conditions are hostile for plant and animal life.the lack of vegetation exposes the unprotected surface of the ground to denudation.about one-third of the land surface of the earth is arid or semi-arid.this includes much of the polar regions, where little precipitation occurs, and which are sometimes called polar deserts or 'cold deserts'.deserts can be classified by the amount of precipitation that falls, by the temperature that prevails, by the causes of desertification or by their geographical location.deserts are formed by weathering processes as large variations in temperature between day and night put strains on the rocks, which consequently break in pieces.although rain seldom occurs in deserts, there are occasional downpours that can result in flash floods.rain falling on hot rocks can cause them to shatter, and the resulting fragments and rubble strewn over the desert floor are further eroded by the wind.this picks up particles of sand and dust, which can remain airborne for extended periods – sometimes causing the formation of sand storms or dust storms.wind-blown sand grains striking any solid object in their path can abrade the surface.rocks are smoothed down, and the wind sorts sand into uniform deposits.the grains end up as level sheets of sand or are piled high in billowing sand dunes.other deserts are flat, stony plains where all the fine material has been blown away and the surface consists of a mosaic of smooth stones, often forming desert pavements, and little further erosion takes place.other desert features include rock outcrops, exposed bedrock and clays once deposited by flowing water.temporary lakes may form and salt pans may be left when waters evaporate.there may be underground sources of water, in the form of springs and seepages from aquifers.where these are found, oases can occur.plants and animals living in the desert need special adaptations to survive in the harsh environment.plants tend to be tough and wiry with small or no leaves, water-resistant cuticles, and often spines to deter herbivory.some annual plants germinate, bloom and die in the course of a few weeks after rainfall, while other long-lived plants survive for years and have deep root systems able to tap underground moisture.animals need to keep cool and find enough food and water to survive.many are nocturnal, and stay in the shade or underground during the heat of the day.they tend to be efficient at conserving water, extracting most of their needs from their food and concentrating their urine.some animals remain in a state of dormancy for long periods, ready to become active again during the rare rainfall.they then reproduce rapidly while conditions are favorable before returning to dormancy.people have struggled to live in deserts and the surrounding semi-arid lands for millennia.nomads have moved their flocks and herds to wherever grazing is available, and oases have provided opportunities for a more settled way of life.the cultivation of semi-arid regions encourages erosion of soil and is one of the causes of increased desertification.desert farming is possible with the aid of irrigation, and the imperial valley in california provides an example of how previously barren land can be made productive by the import of water from an outside source.many trade routes have been forged across deserts, especially across the sahara, and traditionally were used by caravans of camels carrying salt, gold, ivory and other goods.large numbers of slaves were also taken northwards across the sahara.some mineral extraction also takes place in deserts, and the uninterrupted sunlight gives potential for the capture of large quantities of solar energy.","dessert | dishvariation | cake","no related information" "a severed wasp (1982) is a novel by madeleine l'engle.it continues the story of a pianist, katherine

"a desert is a barren area of landscape where little precipitation occurs and, consequently, living conditions are hostile for plant and animal life.the lack of vegetation exposes the unprotected surface of the ground to denudation.about one-third of the land surface of the earth is arid or semi-arid.this includes much of the polar regions, where little precipitation occurs, and which are sometimes called polar deserts or 'cold deserts'.deserts can be classified by the amount of precipitation that falls, by the temperature that prevails, by the causes of desertification or by their geographical location.deserts are formed by weathering processes as large variations in temperature between day and night put strains on the rocks, which consequently break in pieces.although rain seldom occurs in deserts, there are occasional downpours that can result in flash floods.rain falling on hot rocks can cause them to shatter, and the resulting fragments and rubble strewn over the desert floor are further eroded by the wind.this picks up particles of sand and dust, which can remain airborne for extended periods – sometimes causing the formation of sand storms or dust storms.wind-blown sand grains striking any solid object in their path can abrade the surface.rocks are smoothed down, and the wind sorts sand into uniform deposits.the grains end up as level sheets of sand or are piled high in billowing sand dunes.other deserts are flat, stony plains where all the fine material has been blown away and the surface consists of a mosaic of smooth stones, often forming desert pavements, and little further erosion takes place.other desert features include rock outcrops, exposed bedrock and clays once deposited by flowing water.temporary lakes may form and salt pans may be left when waters evaporate.there may be underground sources of water, in the form of springs and seepages from aquifers.where these are found, oases can occur.plants and animals living in the desert need special adaptations to survive in the harsh environment.plants tend to be tough and wiry with small or no leaves, water-resistant cuticles, and often spines to deter herbivory.some annual plants germinate, bloom and die in the course of a few weeks after rainfall, while other long-lived plants survive for years and have deep root systems able to tap underground moisture.animals need to keep cool and find enough food and water to survive.many are nocturnal, and stay in the shade or underground during the heat of the day.they tend to be efficient at conserving water, extracting most of their needs from their food and concentrating their urine.some animals remain in a state of dormancy for long periods, ready to become active again during the rare rainfall.they then reproduce rapidly while conditions are favorable before returning to dormancy.people have struggled to live in deserts and the surrounding semi-arid lands for millennia.nomads have moved their flocks and herds to wherever grazing is available, and oases have provided opportunities for a more settled way of life.the cultivation of semi-arid regions encourages erosion of soil and is one of the causes of increased desertification.desert farming is possible with the aid of irrigation, and the imperial valley in california provides an example of how previously barren land can be made productive by the import of water from an outside source.many trade routes have been forged across deserts, especially across the sahara, and traditionally were used by caravans of camels carrying salt, gold, ivory and other goods.large numbers of slaves were also taken northwards across the sahara.some mineral extraction also takes place in deserts, and the uninterrupted sunlight gives potential for the capture of large quantities of solar energy.","dessert | dishvariation | ice cream","no related information" "a wizard of mars is the ninth novel in the young wizards series by diane duane.after being pushed back several times due to internal turmoil at harcourt trade publishers, it was scheduled to be released april 14, 2010, but the distributor shipped it in late march.but not even wizardry is enough to cope with the strange events that start to unfold when the 'bottle' is uncorked and life emerges once more to shake the red planet with its own perilous and baffling brand of magic.the good news however, is that the martians seem friendly.the bad news is that now they're free to pick up where they left off on a long-dormant plan that can change the shape of more than one world... and they don't mind using their well-intentioned rescuers to achieve their goals.kit's long-standing fascination with all things martian unexpectedly enmeshes him in a terrible, age-old conflict—turning him into both a possible key to its solution, and a tool that in the wrong hands shortly threatens the whole human race.only kit has a shot of defusing the threat.but when he vanishes unexpectedly from mars of here and now, his fellow wizards are left uncertain of where his true loyalties lie.nita's determination to find the truth - and kit - soon sends her into a battle against an implacable enemy who may not be conquerable except by violating wizardry's most basic tenets.as the shadow of interplanetary war stretches ever more darkly over both worlds, kit and nita must fight to understand and master the strange and ancient synergy binding them to mars and its last inhabitants... or the history that left mars lifeless will repeat itself on earth.she is still able to work with living things, but her powers are now developing more towards the oracular bend.she has a lot on her shoulders, having to deal with grief after her mother's and ponch's death, as well as her sister dairine, who, after the loss of roshaun is behaving oddly as well as being sullen and unresponsive—and carmela is taunting her about her middle name as well, which she hates, though it gives no reason why.she was initially uninterested in the 'martian thing,' but gets caught up in it quickly as carmela uncovers an ancient prophecy and kit starts acting strangely and then disappears completely.she has several spectacular moments and has to make the most 'active' choices and possibly has the most 'fighting' role in the book, as kit makes choices, as important as nita's but more passive.she starts to have feelings toward kit, though she has no 'soppy' moments.she develops an elemental affinity with water, which proves important later, along with her friendship with the whale wizard s'ree, and uses the gibraltar passthrough (a powerful wizardry developed by the hydromage angelina pellegrino) to save her life, along with several other wizardries, though they cost her vast amounts of energy and power.she duels aurilelde in what is supposed to be to the death, but after defeating her thoroughly, breaks the prophecy which said 'she will slay her rival.'christopher rodriguez christopher 'kit' rodriguez is, throughout the book, obsessed with mars and all things martian.after messing things up a bit too much and getting himself stuck in an ancient version of mars—and inside the martian wizard khretef—he is faced with a difficult decision, which will affect the course of life in the entire solar system: will he save earth or will he save mars?at home, his sister helena has arrived, which makes for a hard time dealing with her wild theories about him and his wizardry.","a wizard of mars | language | english language","no related information" "alexander guruli (georgian:

biodiversity.the indonesian archipelago has been a valuable region for trade since at least the seventh century, when the srivijaya kingdom formed trade links with china.indonesian history has been influenced by foreign powers drawn to its natural resources.under indian influence, hindu and buddhist kingdoms flourished from the early centuries ce.muslim traders later brought islam, and european powers fought one another to monopolise trade in the spice islands of maluku during the age of discovery.following three and a half centuries of dutch colonialism, indonesia secured its independence after world war ii.indonesia's history has since been turbulent, with challenges posed by natural disasters, corruption, separatism, a democratisation process, and periods of rapid economic change.indonesia consists of thousands of distinct native ethnic and hundreds of linguistic groups, with javanese being the largest.a shared identity has developed with the motto 'bhinneka tunggal

"siomay (also somai), is an indonesian steamed fish dumpling with vegetables served in peanut sauce.it is derived from the chinese shumai.it is considered a light meal, similar to the chinese dim sum.it is traditionally made from pork but is frequently substituted with tenggiri (spanish mackerel), as many indonesians observe the halal dietary law.sometimes other types of seafood such as tuna, mackerel, and prawn also can be used to make siomay.other complements to siomay include steamed cabbage, potatoes, bitter gourd, boiled egg, and tofu.siomay is often cut into bite size pieces and topped with peanut sauce, sweet soy sauce, chili sauce and a dash of lime juice.it can be found in street-side food stalls, travelling carts, bicycle vendors, and restaurants, and is considered a popular school meal for indonesian students.just like bakso, lumpia, and pempek, siomay was influenced by chinese indonesian cuisine.however, chinese indonesian siomay is rarely served with peanut sauce; it is instead served with a sweet-sour and spicy chili sauce in its place, or with no sauce at all, resembling authentic chinese shumai.siomay has long been incorporated into indonesian cuisine, the most famous iteration of the dish being bandung-style siomay (siomay bandung).it has been adapted into local sundanese cuisine, where most siomay sellers today are sundanese.it has similarly been adapted into the batagor, short for bakso tahu goreng, another variety of the dish also from bandung; it is similar to siomay, except that it is fried instead of steamed.siomay == see

season.they were relegated after one season at the top tier.their colours are white and black, with green also commonly being associated with the club.they play their home games at eduard streltsov stadium, but have been playing at luzhniki stadium since their home stadium began a reconstruction project in 2021.the new stadium is designed by the architects michel remon and alexis peyer from the french office mr&a.torpedo are historically one of the big moscow clubs who enjoyed great domestic success during the soviet era.in recent history, however, the club has suffered from financial troubles and poor management which has seen them drop down the divisions.a top flight club since 1938, torpedo were relegated for the first time in their history following the 2006 russian premier league season and have only played one campaign in the top division since, in 2014–15, spending the other seasons bouncing around between the second and third tiers.in the 2021–22 season, the club won their first fnl title, and returned to the russian premier league.zis (1933–1936) – after owner's name amo was changed to zavod imeni stalina (zis).torpedo moscow (1936–july 1996) – when they became one of the founding members of the soviet 'b' league.torpedo-luzhniki (august 1996 – 1998) – as they became property of the luzhniki corporation.torpedo moscow (1998–present) === club history === torpedo moscow football club (based on proletarskaya kuznitsa teams) was formed in 1924 by the amo automotive plant (later known as 'stalin automotive plant – zis' and later 'likhachev automotive plant – zil').they played in the moscow league until 1936 when they became one of the founder members of the soviet 'b' league and changed their name to torpedo moscow.in 1938, they were promoted to the 'a' league.in 1949, torpedo won their first professional title, the ussr cup.in 1957 torpedo moscow, as well as other soviet sport clubs named 'torpedo', became a part of the republican vss trud of the russian soviet federative socialist republic.nicknamed 'the black-whites,' torpedo has not been a major force in russian football since the days of eduard streltsov, the brilliant striker of the 1950s and 1960s, known as 'the russian pelé.'in 1960, torpedo won the double; the top league and the ussr cup.torpedo had its glory period in the 1980's and early 90s, when they made six soviet/russian cup finals, winning the 1985–86 soviet cup and the 1992–93 russian cup, and finished in the top 6 7/8 times from 1983 to 1991.the club used to belong to the zil automobile plant until a fallout in the mid-1990s that resulted in torpedo leaving their historic ground and moving across town to luzhniki, as they became property of the luzhniki corporation and its name was changed to torpedo-luzhniki between (1996–1997) before it was renamed torpedo moscow.after selling torpedo moscow in 1996, zil created a new team, torpedo-zil (1997), which debuted in the third division and reached the russian premier league in 2000.however, zil sold the team to mmc norilsk nickel in 2003, where it was relaunched as fc moscow.this new team, however, was eventually dissolved after spending the 2010 season in amateur football league when its owner and main sponsor, mmc norilsk nickel, withdrew funding.after selling torpedo-zil in 2003, zil created another team, torpedo-zil (2003), which began play in the third division.","fc torpedo moscow | manager | valery petrakov","no related information" "the æsir are the gods of the principal pantheon in old norse religion and norse mythology.the second norse pantheon is the vanir, these two pantheons waged war against each other, resulting in a unified pantheon.in genitival compounds, it takes the form ása-, e.g.in ása-þórr ('thor of the æsir'), besides ás- found in ás-brú 'gods' bridge' (the rainbow), ás-garðr, ás-kunnigr 'gods' kin', ás-liðar 'gods' leader', ás-mogin 'gods' might' (especially of thor), ás-móðr 'divine wrath' etc.landâs 'national god' (patrium numen) is a title of thor, as is allmáttki ás 'almighty god', while it is odin who is 'the' ás.there is also old east norse dialectal *ās-ækia (own: *áss-ekja), i.e.'god ride' (thor riding in his wagon), resulting in the modern swedish word for atmospheric thunder – åska (the form åsekia attested as late as the 17th c.).the feminine form is ásynja (plural ásynjur).the feminine suffix -ynja (proto-norse: -unjō) is known from a few other nouns denoting female animals, such as apynja 'female monkey', vargynja 'she-wolf'.a cognate word for 'goddess' is not attested outside old norse, and a corresponding west germanic word would have been separately derived with the feminine suffixes -inī or -injō.áss is attested in other germanic languages, such as old english ōs (plural ēse), denoting a deity in anglo-saxon paganism, preserved only as a prefix ōs- in personal names (e.g.osborne, oswald) and some place-names, and as the genitive plural ēsa (ēsa gescot and ylfa gescot, 'the shots of anses and of elves', i.e.'elfshot', jaculum divorum et geniorum).in old high german, old dutch and old saxon, the word is only attested in personal and place names, e.g.ansebert, anselm, ansfrid, vihans.the old high german is reconstructed as *ans, plural *ensî.gothic has ans- as reported by jordanes, who wrote in the 6th century ce, presumably a latinized form of actual plural *anseis), as a name for euhemerized semi-divine early gothic rulers.the reconstructed proto-germanic form is *ansuz (plural *ansiwiz).the ansuz rune, ⟨ᚫ⟩, was named after the æsir.*ansuz, itself comes from proto-indo-european *h₂énsus (gen. h₂n̥sóus) 'life force' (cf.avestan aŋhū 'lord; lifetime', ahura 'godhood', sanskrit ásu 'life force', ásura 'demons' ( *h₂n̥suró).it is widely accepted that this word is further related to *h₂ens- 'to engender' (cf.hittite hass- 'to procreate, give birth', tocharian b ās- 'to produce').while other cultures have had 'elder' and 'younger' families of gods, as with the titans versus the olympians of ancient greece, the æsir and vanir were portrayed as contemporaries.the two clans of gods fought battles, concluded treaties, and exchanged hostages (freyr and freyja are mentioned as hostages).an áss like ullr is almost unknown in the myths, but his name is seen in a lot of geographical names, especially in sweden, and may also appear on the 3rd century thorsberg chape, suggesting that his cult was widespread in prehistoric times.the names of the first three æsir in norse mythology, vili, vé and odin all refer to spiritual or mental state, vili to conscious will or desire, vé to the sacred or numinous and óðr to the manic or ecstatic.the vanir appear to have mainly been connected with cultivation and fertility and the æsir were connected with power and war.in the eddas, however, the word æsir is used for gods in general, while asynjur is used for the goddesses in general.for example, in the poem skírnismál, freyr was called 'prince of the æsir'.in the prose edda, njörðr was introduced as 'the third among the æsir', and among the asynjur, freya is always listed second only to frigg.in surviving tales, the origins of many of the æsir are unexplained.","aenir | oclc number | 45644811","no related information" "the 1955 dodge lineup, consisting of the entry-level coronet, royal, and

designed by virgil exner.the dodge lineup was positioned as the mainstream line in chrysler's hierarchy, between desoto and plymouth.they shared their basic mechanicals with the desoto custom, but had distinct styling.these cars lasted through the 1956 model year before being replaced by an all-new 1957.there were six body styles and four trim levels for 1955: == coronet == the coronet (and suburban station wagon) was the base model.this was the only line to feature the 230 in3 (3.8 l) getaway i6 as well as the 270 in3 (4.4 l) red ram v8.coronets were available in all body styles except the convertible.sedans feature 'coronet' badges on the fenders, while the station wagons are called 'suburban'.although the hardtop coupe was officially named 'lancer', it wore only 'coronet'

convertible models were called 'custom royal lancer'.the custom line featured unique chrome tailfins (although early model year cars went without this trim), special tail light surrounds, and an upscale interior.backup lights were standard on the custom line but optional on all others.the custom royal also featured the hemi 270 cid super red ram engine.it came in heather rose and sapphire

design' brought about cars that were bigger and more sleek than anything before, and instantly put a company that had traditionally regarded styling as unimportant on the forefront of automotive design.unfortunately, two total redesigns in as many years resulted in severe build quality and rust problems, so that many 1957 chryslers, dodges, and plymouths were off the road within three years of their purchase.dodge production had exceeded 337,000 cars for 1957 but the 1958 total fell by over half to less than 140,000, although some of this loss was due to negative publicity from the cars' poor quality control.swivel-out seats became an option.production for the model year totaled 156,395 cars, a modest increase over 1958.the highlight of the lineup was the performance-oriented d-500

played their home games at miami arena before moving to the fla live arena in 1998.located in sunrise, florida, the panthers are the southernmost team in the nhl.the team's local broadcasting rights have been held by bally sports florida (formerly sportschannel and fox sports florida) since 1996.the panthers are primarily affiliated with two minor league teams: the charlotte checkers of the american hockey league (ahl) and the florida everblades of the echl.the panthers began playing in the 1993–94 nhl season, where they set the record for the most points by an expansion team in its inaugural season until surpassed by the vegas golden knights in 2017–18.the team has made two appearances in the stanley cup finals, first in 1996, losing to the colorado avalanche, and again in 2023, as the eighth seed in the eastern conference.between 1996 and 2022, the panthers only qualified for the stanley cup playoffs seven times, not winning a playoff series again until 2022.at the time, huizenga owned both the newly founded florida marlins of major league baseball and a share of the national football league (nfl)'s miami dolphins.the entry fee was $50 million.huizenga announced the team would play at the miami arena, sharing the building with the national basketball association's miami heat, until a new arena was built.offices for the team were only established in june 1993, while vice president of business operations dean jordan conceded that 'none of the business people, myself included, knew anything about hockey.'the new franchise would be the first professional ice hockey team in miami since the folding of the tropical hockey league in 1939.on april 20, 1993, a press conference in ft. lauderdale announced that the team would be named florida panthers, with former new york islanders general manager bill torrey as president and bobby clarke as general manager.the team is named for the florida panther, an endangered species of large cat endemic to the nearby everglades region.once the logos and uniforms were unveiled on june 15, the team also announced its financial commitment to the panther preservation cause.huizenga had held the panthers trademark since 1991, when he purchased it from a group of tampa investors who sought to create an mlb team in the tampa bay area.the new franchise joined the nhl for participation in the 1993–94 season, along with the mighty ducks of anaheim.the panthers' and ducks' rosters were filled in both the expansion draft and the 1993 nhl entry draft in june 1993, hosted by quebec city; that draft produced ten players who would eventually be a part of the 1996 eastern conference-winning team.the panthers' first major stars were former new york rangers goaltender john vanbiesbrouck, rookie rob niedermayer and forward scott mellanby, who scored 30 goals in florida's inaugural season.their first game was a 4–4 tie on the road against the chicago blackhawks, while their first win was a 2–0 shutout of the tampa bay lightning in the thunderdome before a then-nhl record crowd of 27,227.the panthers had one of the most successful first seasons of any expansion team in league history, finishing just two points below .500 and narrowly missing out on the final 1994 playoff spot in the east.their first-year success was attributed mainly to the trap defense that first-year coach roger neilson implemented.this conservative style was widely criticized by nhl teams; some even suggested that the panthers were ruining the game.","florida panthers | generalmanager | dale tallon","on

club from montevideo.the name 'peñarol' comes from the peñarol neighbourhood on the outskirts of montevideo.throughout its history the club has also participated in other sports, such as basketball and cycling.its focus has always been on football, a sport in which the club excels, having never been relegated from the top division.the club traditionally plays in yellow and black-striped shirts.in international competition, peñarol is the third-highest copa libertadores winner with five victories and shares the record for intercontinental cup victories with three.in september 2009, the club was chosen as the south american club of the century by the iffhs .apart from men's football, other active sports sections of peñarol are rugby union, futsal, women's football, and athletics.the club was known as curcc in the neighborhood of peñarol—the latter from the peñarol neighborhood, about 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) from montevideo, whose name in turn derived from an italian city.the club's first president was frank henderson, who remained in that position until 1899.in 1892, the curcc shifted its focus from cricket and rugby to association football.the football club's first game was against a team of students from the english high school and ended with a 2–0 victory.in 1895, uruguayan footballer julio negrón was chosen as the team's first non-british captain.the club won its first uruguayan championship that year, repeating in 1901, 1905 and 1907.in 1906 charles w. bayne took over the railroad, and refused to sponsor the football team due to financial and work issues.conflict between the company and the football club led to the severance of their relationship in 1913.in 1908, the club left the uruguayan league after the league rejected their request to replay a game with f.c.dublín.curcc had lost 2–3 on the road, and believed their poor showing was due to refereeing mistakes caused by pressure from rabid home fans.as a sign of good faith, nacional also retired from the league, since both teams agreed that 'los partidos se ganan en la cancha', or 'matches are won on the pitch'.back in competition the following year, relations between the cur and the club became frostier after fans burned a train car used for rival teams.a year after the club's 1911 uruguayan championship, the club attempted reforms to its policies.proposals included greater participation by non-cur players and a name change to 'curcc peñarol'.in june 1913, the proposals were rejected; the company wanted to distance itself from the club's local reputation.the railroad company, decided to separate the ' foot-ball ' section of the team from the company on saturday 13 december 1913.that is when peñarol was founded.the following day it was the first time a ' clasico ' was officially played between nacional and peñarol.curcc kept playing football in the amateurism until it was dissolved on 22 january 1915 and donated all their trophies to the british hospital of

castle (german: das schloss, also spelled das schloß [das ˈʃlɔs]) is the last novel by franz kafka.in it a protagonist known only as 'k.' arrives in a village and struggles to gain access to the mysterious authorities who govern it from a castle supposedly owned by count westwest.kafka died before he could finish the work and the novel was posthumously published against his wishes.dark and at times surreal, the castle is often understood to be about alienation, unresponsive bureaucracy, the frustration of trying to conduct business with non-transparent, seemingly arbitrary controlling systems, and the futile pursuit of an unobtainable goal.a picture taken of him upon his arrival shows him by a horse-drawn sleigh in the snow in a setting reminiscent of the castle.hence, the significance that the first few chapters of the handwritten manuscript were written in the first person and at some point later changed by kafka to a third-person narrator, 'k.' === max brod === kafka died before he could finish the novel, and it is questionable whether he intended to finish it if he had survived his tuberculosis.at one point he told his friend max brod that the novel would conclude with k., the book's protagonist, continuing to reside in the village until his death; the castle would notify him on his deathbed that his 'legal claim to live in the village was not valid, yet, taking certain auxiliary circumstances into account, he was permitted to live and work there.'however, on 11 september 1922 in a letter to brod, he wrote he was giving up on the book and would never return to it.as it is, the book ends mid-sentence.although brod was instructed by kafka to destroy all of his unpublished works on his death, brod instead set about publishing many of them.das schloss was originally published in german in 1926 by the publisher joella goodman of munich.this edition sold far less than the 1500 copies that were printed.it was republished in 1935 by schocken verlag in berlin, and in 1946 by schocken books of new york.brod heavily edited the work to ready it for publication.his goal was to gain acceptance of the work and the author, not to maintain the structure of kafka's writing.this would play heavily in the future of the translations and continues to be the center of discussion on the text.brod donated the manuscript to oxford university.brod placed a strong religious significance on the symbolism of the castle.this is one possible interpretation of the work based on numerous judeo-christian references as noted by many including arnold heidsieck.in 1961 malcolm pasley got access to all of kafka's works except the trial, and deposited them in oxford's bodleian library.pasley and a team of scholars (gerhard neumann, jost schillemeit, and jürgen born) started publishing the works in 1982 through s. fischer verlag.das schloß was published that year as a two-volume set — the novel in the first volume, and the fragments, deletions, and editor's notes in a second volume.this team restored the original german text to its full and incomplete state, including kafka's unique punctuation, considered critical to the style.at one time stroemfeld/roter stern verlag did work for the rights to publish a critical edition with manuscript and transcription side-by-side.but they met with resistance from the kafka heirs and pasley.based on the first german edition, by max brod.published by secker & warburg in england and alfred a. knopf in the united states.1941 translators: willa and edwin muir.the edition includes an homage by thomas

southwestern trinidad, about 32 km (20 mi) southwest of san fernando, in the historic county of saint patrick.after the discovery of petroleum in the area in 1906 the town grew into a major oil-producing centre.the town grew with the oil industry between the 1940s and 1980s, culminating in its elevation to borough status in 1980.after the end of the oil boom point fortin was hit hard by economic recession in the 1980s and the closure of its oil refinery.construction of a liquefied natural gas plant by atlantic lng in late 1990s boosted the economy.these estates were sparsely populated.employment was provided for a small number of workers who depended on the estates for their living accommodation as well as their food and other supplies.travel in and out of point fortin was by coastal steamers as there was no road into or out of the area.the inhabited area was located along the seacoast.in 1907, the trinidad oilfields moved into point fortin on an expedition for the exploration of oil and sank its first oil well on the la fortunee estates.that company turned out to be the only one that survived successfully, although there had been several similar expeditions by other oil companies.the company later changed its name to the united british oilfields of trinidad then became shell trinidad limited.in 1974 it was acquired by the government and named trintoc or the trinidad and tobago oil company, today known as petrotrin.the change from an agricultural to an oil based economy made a significant impact in point fortin.there was rapid development in the construction of dwelling houses, plant, pipelines and oil tanks in the area.point fortin was booming and labour, particularly skilled labour for the new technology, was scarce and posed a major problem.trinidadians did not seem to be attracted to the area.although people migrated from all over the country, the population in 1931 was less than 500.there were very few houses, no schools, and recreational and other facilities.as a result, trinidadians who went to work in point fortin never took their families with them.however, this changed when the company realised that in order to attract and retain workers, they needed to develop the area.this encouraged families to settle in the area, and coupled with a growth in the commercial sector, brought about such facilities as a post office, police station as well as other governmental agencies and banks.in the 1960s the town began to see a decline due to massive retrenchment.the government tried to revive the economic activity and eventually succeeded in establishing the dunlop tyre factory.however the economic revival was only achieved in the early 1970s as a result of the oil boom and the acquisition of shell trinidad

segment and was also offered in performance versions as highlighted in the nascar racing series with factory support from 1972 through 1975.with its second generation, the matador became amc's largest automobile after the ambassador, which shared the same platform, was discontinued after the 1974 model year.premium trim levels of the second generation matador coupe were marketed as the barcelona and oleg cassini (after the noted fashion designer) positioning the coupe in the personal luxury segment.the matador was fairly popular as a police car in the united states, and several television series featured matadors in prominent roles.abroad, matadors were also marketed under the rambler marque and were assembled under license in costa rica, mexico by vehículos automotores mexicanos

cars.matadors were also offered to fleet buyers with various police, taxicab, and other heavy-duty packages.they outperformed most other cars and 'was adopted as the official police car.'matadors became popular with government agencies and military units as well as police departments in the u.s. and the sedans and wagons were typically equipped with 360 cu in (5.9 l) or 401 cu in (6.6 l) v8 engines.matadors with heavy-duty police equipment were produced from 1971 through 1975.they continued to be in service longer than normal because of favorable field reports.the matador received a

it was in a market segment where two-door models were typically the most popular - and also most profitable.as a result, the boxy two-door hardtop body design was replaced with a completely different and sleeker coupe model 'to contend with the bull market for plush mid-size coupes that sprang up after the end of the muscle car era'.it also featured a design that was praised by owners along with their complaints about its low roofline.the design of the matador coupe has been described as 'polarizing' as well as being 'an evocative, swoopy coupe that perfectly captured the design ethos of the

and the irish sea.the total area of the united kingdom is 242,495 square kilometres (93,628 sq mi), with an estimated 2023 population of over 68 million people.the united kingdom has evolved from a series of annexations, unions and separations of constituent countries over several hundred years.the treaty of union between the kingdom of england (which also included wales) and the kingdom of scotland in 1707 resulted in their unification to become the kingdom of great britain.its union in 1801 with the kingdom of ireland created the united kingdom of great britain and ireland.most of ireland seceded from the uk in 1922, leaving the present united kingdom of great britain and northern ireland, which formally adopted its name in 1927.the nearby isle of man, guernsey and jersey are not part of the uk, being crown dependencies, but the british government is responsible for their defence and international representation.the uk became the world's first industrialised country and was the foremost power during the 19th and early 20th centuries, a period of unchallenged global hegemony known as 'pax britannica'.the 14 british overseas territories are the last remnants of the british empire which, at its height in the 1920s, encompassed almost a quarter of the world's landmass and population, and was the largest empire in history.a part of the core anglophonic world,

capitals of scotland, wales and northern ireland respectively.other major cities include birmingham, manchester, leeds, glasgow, sheffield and liverpool.scotland, wales, and northern ireland have their own devolved governments, each with varying powers.the uk is a great power, exerting significant economic, political, military, scientific and cultural influence in world affairs.it has the world's sixth-largest economy by nominal gross domestic product (gdp), and the tenth-largest by purchasing power parity.it is a recognised nuclear state and is the foremost military power in europe.the uk has been a permanent member of the united nations security council since its first session in 1946.it is a member of the commonwealth of nations, the council of europe, the g7, the oecd, the five eyes, nato and aukus, and was a member of the eu until its withdrawal with a free trade deal in 2020.the uk is set to join the cptpp, a major trade bloc in the indo-pacific, after negotiations regarding its accession concluded in march 2023.great britain encompassed the whole island, taking in the land north of the river forth known to the romans as caledonia in modern scotland (i.e.'greater' britain).in the middle ages, the name 'britain' was also applied to a small part of france now known as brittany.as a result, great britain (likely from the french 'grande bretagne') came into use to refer specifically to the island, with brittany often referred to as 'little britain'.","united kingdom | leadername | elizabeth ii","no related information" "20 fenchurch street is a

london that takes its name from its address on fenchurch street, in the historic city of london financial district.it has been nicknamed 'the walkie-talkie' because of its distinctive shape, said to resemble a two-way radio handset.construction was completed in spring 2014, and the three-floor 'sky garden' was opened in january 2015.the 38-storey building is 160 m (525 ft) tall.since july 2017, the building has been owned by lee kum kee groups.designed by architect rafael viñoly and costing over £200 million, 20 fenchurch street features a highly distinctive top-heavy form which appears to burst upward and outward.the entrance floor and 34 floors of office space are topped by a large viewing deck.a bar and restaurants are included on the 35th, 36th and 37th floors; these are, with restrictions, open to the public.the tower was originally proposed at nearly 200 m (656 ft) tall but its design was scaled down after concerns about its visual impact on the nearby st paul's cathedral and tower of london.it was subsequently approved in 2006 with the revised height.even after the height reduction there were continued concerns from heritage groups about its impact on the surrounding area.the secretary of state for communities and local government, ruth kelly, called in the project for another public inquiry.the project was consequently the subject of a public inquiry; in 2007 this ruled in the developers' favour and the building was granted full planning permission.in 2015 it was awarded the carbuncle cup for the worst new building in the uk in the previous 12 months.in 2013 paul finch of the design council cabe said he regretted supporting the project during the public inquiry, saying that the developers 'made a mess of it' and were architects of their own misfortune.in july 2017, the hong kong food company lee kum kee groups agreed to purchase the building from land securities and canary wharf group for £1.3 billion.savills management resources hold the contract to carry out all management of 20 fenchurch street.the architect was william h. rogers.the building was formerly occupied by dresdner kleinwort and was notable for being one of the first tall buildings in the city of london, and for its distinctive roof.it was one of the towers nearest to the river thames when viewed from the southern end of london bridge.in 2007, one of the upper floors was used in the drama series party animals.demolition of the building was completed in 2008.despite the top-down method of construction, it was not demolished from the bottom-up, as a temporary structure was built, allowing keltbray, the demolition contractor, to demolish the building from the top down.the garden spans the top three floors, which are accessible by two express lifts and include a large viewing area, terrace, bar and two restaurants.fourteen double-deck lifts (seven low-rise up to the 20th floor, seven high-rise above the 20th floor) serve the main office floors of the building.the south side of the structure is ventilated externally to improve efficiency and decrease solar gain, whilst the east and west faces incorporate extensive solar shading.there is a southern entrance in addition to the main northern entrance set back from fenchurch street.piling and ground works were completed in june 2009.in january 2011, work at the basement level of the tower

engine was a short-stroke version of the alfa romeo giulietta's 1.3 litre engine, developed so as to enable it to compete in racing categories restricted to engines of less than one litre.the stroke was reduced to 58.0 mm (2.28 in) while the bore remained 74.0 mm (2.91 in).the tubular chassis reportedly only weighed 50 kg (110 lb), and the car was fitted with a fully synchronized five-speed

is new york city.indigenous peoples have inhabited the americas for thousands of years.beginning in 1607, british colonization led to the establishment of the thirteen colonies in what is now the eastern united states.they quarreled with the british crown over taxation and political representation, leading to the american revolution and proceeding revolutionary war.the united states declared independence on july 4, 1776, becoming the first nation-state founded on enlightenment principles of unalienable natural rights, consent of the governed, and liberal democracy.during the nineteenth century, the united states political philosophy was influenced by the concept of manifest destiny, as the country expanded across the continent in a number of wars, land purchases, and treaties, eventually reaching the pacific ocean by the middle of the century.sectional division surrounding slavery in the southern united states led to the secession of the confederate states of america, which fought the remaining states of the union during the american civil war (1861–1865).with the union's victory and preservation, slavery was abolished nationally by the thirteenth amendment.by 1900, the

by simon and schuster in may 1929 in new york.the british edition, published by jonathan cape, appeared in july 1929.this, powys's fourth novel, was his first literary success.it is a bildungsroman in which the eponymous protagonist, a thirty-five-year-old history teacher, returns to his birthplace, where he discovers the inadequacy of his dualistic philosophy.wolf resembles john cowper powys in that an elemental philosophy is at the centre of his life and, because, like powys, he hates science and modern inventions like cars and planes, and is attracted to slender, androgynous women.wolf solent is the first of powys's four wessex novels.powys both wrote about the same region as thomas hardy and was a twentieth-century successor to the great nineteenth-century novelist.the novel is set in the fictional towns of ramsgard, dorset, based on sherborne, dorset, where powys attended school from may 1883, blacksod, modelled on yeovil, somerset, and kings barton, modelled on bradford abbas, dorset.it has references to other places in dorset like dorchester and weymouth that were also full of memories for powys.there were six impressions of the first edition (american) between 1929 and 1930 and three of the british edition in 1929.there were translations into german (1930, french (1931), and several other european languages.however, powys had to cut 318 pages from his typescript before wolf solent was published by simon and schuster.these pages (amounting to six chapters) were hastily condensed into a revised chapter 19 ‘wine’ for its first publication.they were eventually published with editorial commentary in july 2021, but no attempt has been made as yet to incorporate them into an updated complete wolf solent.some variations to the plot — particularly the disfigurement of gerda, which is only referred to in the deleted chapters — make such an integration problematic.following the success of wolf solent three of powys's works of popular philosophy were also best-sellers: the meaning of culture (1929), in defence of sensuality (1930), a philosophy of solitude (1933).prior to this powys had published three apprentice novels: wood and stone (1915), rodmoor (1916), ducdame (1925), and had also written after my fashion in 1920, though it was not published until 1980.he had begun work on wolf solent in february 1925, it is 'the first of the four wessex novels which established john cowper powys's reputation', an allusion not only to the place but to the influence of thomas hardy on him: his first novel, wood and stone was dedicated to hardy.in the preface he wrote for the 1961 macdonald edition of the novel powys states: 'wolf solent is a book of nostalgia, written in a foreign country with the pen of a traveller and the ink-blood of his home.wolf solent is set in ramsgard, based on sherborne, dorset, where powys attended school from may 1883, as well as blacksod, modelled on yeovil, somerset, and dorchester, dorset and weymouth, dorset, both in dorset, all places full of memories for him.while powys had been born in shirley, derbyshire and lived there for this first seven years of his life, his father then returned to his home county of dorset, and, after a brief stay in weymouth, the family resided in dorchester from may 1880 until the christmas of 1885.powys's paternal grandmother lived in nearby weymouth.for

monuments of islamic architecture and one of the best-preserved palaces of the historic islamic world, in addition to containing notable examples of spanish renaissance architecture.the complex was begun in 1238 by muhammad i ibn al-ahmar, the first nasrid emir and founder of the emirate of granada, the last muslim state of al-andalus.it was built on the sabika hill, an outcrop of the sierra nevada which had been the site of earlier fortresses and of the 11th-century palace of samuel ibn naghrillah.later nasrid rulers continuously modified the site.the most significant construction campaigns, which gave the royal palaces much of their definitive character, took place in the 14th century during the reigns of yusuf i and muhammad v. after the conclusion of the christian reconquista in 1492, the site became the royal court of ferdinand and isabella (where christopher columbus received royal endorsement for his expedition), and the palaces were partially altered.in 1526, charles v commissioned a new renaissance-style palace in direct juxtaposition with the nasrid palaces, but it was left uncompleted in the early 17th century.after being allowed to fall into disrepair for centuries, with its buildings occupied by squatters, the alhambra was rediscovered following the defeat of napoleon i, whose troops destroyed parts of the site.the rediscoverers were first british intellectuals and then other american and northern european romantic travelers.the most influential of them was washington irving, whose tales of the alhambra (1832) brought international attention to the site.the alhambra was one of the first islamic monuments to become the object of modern scientific study and has been the subject of numerous restorations since the 19th century.it is now one of spain's major tourist attractions and a unesco world heritage site.during the nasrid era, the alhambra was a self-contained city separate from the rest of granada below.it contained most of the amenities of a muslim city such as a friday mosque, hammams (public baths), roads, houses, artisan workshops, a tannery, and a sophisticated water supply system.as a royal city and citadel, it contained at least six major palaces, most of them located along the northern edge where they commanded views over the albaicín quarter.the most famous and best-preserved are the mexuar, the comares palace, the palace of the lions, and the partal palace, which form the main attraction to visitors today.the other palaces are known from historical sources and from modern excavations.at the alhambra's western tip is the alcazaba fortress.multiple smaller towers and fortified gates are also located along the alhambra's walls.outside the alhambra walls and located nearby to the east is the generalife, a former nasrid country estate and summer palace accompanied by historic orchards and modern landscaped gardens.the architecture of the nasrid palaces reflects the tradition of moorish architecture developed over previous centuries.it is characterized by the use of the courtyard as a central space and basic unit around which other halls and rooms were organized.courtyards typically had water features at their center, such as a reflective pool or a fountain.decoration was focused on the inside of the building and was executed primarily with tile mosaics on lower walls and carved stucco on the upper walls.geometric patterns, vegetal motifs, and arabic inscriptions were the main types of decorative motifs.additionally, 'stalactite'-like sculpting, known as muqarnas, was used for three-dimensional features like vaulted ceilings.'the red one' (f.), the complete form of which was الْقَلْعَةُ ٱلْحَمْرَاءُ al-qalʻat al-ḥamrāʼ 'the red

the ii marine expeditionary force/multi-national force west.other major tenants have included the 3rd id's 4th ibct, 82nd airborne division advise & assist brigade, 332nd medical brigade, 321st sustainment brigade, vertical onboard delivery detachment-1 (vod-1), vaq-141, navy customs battalion juliet, elements of the iraqi army's 7th division, and the united states air force (usaf).on december 26, 2018, president donald trump and his wife melania visited the soldiers stationed at the base.on november 23, 2019, vice president mike pence and his wife karen, visited the troops ahead of thanksgiving.on january 8, 2020, the air base came under an iranian ballistic missile attack in retaliation for the killing of quds leader qasem soleimani in a u.s. drone strike a few days earlier.the airbase is divided by wādī al asadī (وادي الاسدي), a wadi whose course passes through the oasis along the base's western edge and then continues eastward, emptying into the euphrates river at khan al baghdadi.this oasis is locally referred to as 'abraham's well'.the ‘ayn al asad spring surfaces within the base and flows into the wādī al asadī.geologically, the base resides in the al-ḥammād sector of the syrian desert, composed mostly of a rock and gravel steppe.qadisiyah ab was one of five new air bases built in iraq as part of their project 'super-base', launched in 1975 as a response to the lessons learned during the arab-israeli wars of 1967 and 1973.the base was built sometime between 1981 and 1987 by a consortium of yugoslavian companies under contract to the government of iraq.two yugoslav government agencies led the project.the fdsp (federal directorate of supply and procurement) acted as the project manager and aeroengineering acted as the project engineer.known as 'project 202-b' and 'project 1100', the companies involved in its construction included granit, vranica d.d.sarajevo, i.l.lavčević d.d.split, and unioninvest d.d.sarajevo.the us$280,000,000 project at qadisiyah ab included accommodation for 5,000 personnel and the necessary infrastructure including public facilities (mosques, outdoor and indoor olympic swimming pool, football field, sports hall, cinema, library, elementary school, high school, hospital and clinic) and fortified military facilities (military airport, shelters for personnel and equipment, shelters for bombers and fighters and military barracks).the hardened aircraft shelters built here and throughout iraq by the yugoslavs were nicknamed 'yugos'.at the time they were considered state of the art but were rendered obsolete in 1991 after the development of the gbu-28 laser-guided bunker-buster bomb.prior to the 2003 us-led invasion of iraq, the base housed three units of the iraqi air force, which flew mig-25s and mig-21s.it was abandoned shortly after the start of the invasion.it was initially known as objective webster, and then eventually was renamed al asad airbase, which means 'the lion' in arabic.the 3rd acr was relieved by the marines of the 1st marine expeditionary force in march 2004.al asad became the largest u.s. base in western iraq and the western equivalent of baghdad's green zone.al asad was a major convoy hub, hosting hundreds of fuel and supply trucks every day.huge shipments of fuel were commonly run along the dangerous routes coming out of jordan and, despite insurgent attempts, a majority of these convoys arrived at their destinations untouched.a single convoy operation would sometimes last a couple days with trucks on the road for over 8 hours a

"antares (), known during early development as taurus ii, is an expendable launch system developed by orbital sciences corporation (now part of northrop grumman) and the pivdenne design bureau to launch the cygnus spacecraft to the international space station as part of nasa's cots and crs programs.able to launch payloads heavier than 8,000 kg (18,000 lb) into low earth orbit, antares is currently the largest rocket operated by northrop grumman.antares launches from the mid-atlantic regional spaceport and made its inaugural flight on april 21, 2013.nasa awarded orbital a commercial orbital transportation services (cots) space act agreement (saa) in 2008 to demonstrate delivery of cargo to the international space station.for these cots missions orbital intends to use antares to launch its cygnus spacecraft.in addition, antares will compete for small-to-medium missions.originally designated the taurus ii, orbital sciences renamed the vehicle antares, after the star of the same name, on december 12, 2011.out of 17 total launches, antares has suffered one failure.during the fifth launch on october 28, 2014, the rocket failed catastrophically, and the vehicle and payload were destroyed.the rocket's first-stage engines were identified as the cause for the failure.a different engine was chosen for subsequent launches, and the rocket had a successful return to flight on october 17, 2016.the antares has flown two major design iterations, the 100 series and 200 series.both series have used a castor 30xl as an upper stage but have differed on the first stage.the 100 series used two kerolox powered aj26 engine in the first stage and launched successfully four times.the 100 series was retired following a launch failure in 2014.the 200 series which first flew in 2016 also featured a kerolox first stage but instead used two rd-181 engine along with other minor upgrades.the 200 series future became uncertain following the russian invasion of ukraine.due to the first stage being produced in ukraine and the engines in russia, future production of the rocket was unable to be continued.as a result northrop grumman entered into an agreement with firefly aerospace to build the first stage of the antares 300 series.northrop also contracted with spacex for 3 falcon 9 launches.a commercial resupply service contract of $1.9 billion for eight flights was awarded in 2008.as of april 2012, development costs were estimated at $472 million.in june 2008, it was announced that the mid-atlantic regional spaceport, formerly part of the wallops flight facility, in virginia, would be the primary launch site for the rocket.launch pad 0a (lp-0a), previously used for the failed conestoga rocket, would be modified to handle antares.wallops allows launches which reach the international space station's orbit as effectively as those from cape canaveral, florida, while being less crowded.the first antares flight launched a cygnus mass simulator.on december 10, 2009, alliant techsystems inc.

to the south, east 25th street to the north, and fdr drive to the east.along with the former asser levy place to the west, it was named after asser levy, one of new york city's first jewish citizens and a strong and influential advocate for civil liberties.the asser levy public baths, the recreation center's main building, was designed by arnold w. brunner and martin aiken.its main entrance on asser levy place consists of two large arches flanked by pairs of columns.inside are recreational rooms, a swimming pool, and lockers.it originally had separate waiting rooms and showers for men and women, though the waiting rooms were subsequently combined and the showers relocated.outdoor recreational facilities, including additional swimming pools and the playground, surround the bathhouse.the bathhouse was built in 1905–1908 to alleviate sanitary problems in the city and was transferred to the new york city department of parks and recreation (nyc parks) in 1938.originally known as the east 23rd street baths, it was renamed for levy in the mid-20th century.the building was designated a new york city landmark in 1974 and added to the national register of historic places in 1980.it was restored by nyc parks in 1988–1990, and the other recreational facilities were built in 1993 and 2014.the 2.44-acre (0.99 ha) site is bounded by 23rd street to the south, the va medical center to the

roughly 163 by 140 feet (50 by 43 m).built in the first decade of the 20th century, it was designed by arnold w. brunner and martin aiken of the shortlived partnership brunner & aiken, although aiken may have been more involved than brunner.the roman revival design was inspired by roman baths and the 'city beautiful' movement.the building was particularly ornate, even in comparison to other new york city bathhouses built in the first decade of the 20th century.other bathhouses were designed to be 'easily recognizable', but lacked 'all outward display of lavishness [...] as it would only keep the poor people away'.the main entrance faces west onto the former path of asser levy place, now part of the recreation center's outdoor facilities.it contains two arches, each flanked by a pair of round columns, that were originally separate entrances for men (northern doors) and women (southern doors).within each arch is a pair of small doors, flanked by scrolled brackets supporting triangular pediments atop each doorway.the remainders of either archway are infilled with a grid of windows containing diagonal muntins, while the archways themselves contain scrolled keystones at their tops.architectural historian robert a. m. stern wrote that the main arches 'were more like portals to a great amphitheatre than frames around doors to a hygienic facility'.between the archways, there is a decorative niche with a fountain, which is topped by the shield of new york city.the top of the facade above the main entrance contains a frieze, a cornice supported by modillions, and an architrave.","asser levy public baths | yearofconstruction | 1904","no related information" "atlas ii was a member of the atlas family of launch vehicles, which evolved from the successful atlas

designed to launch payloads into low earth orbit, geosynchronous transfer orbit or geosynchronous orbit.sixty-three launches of the atlas ii, iia and iias models were carried out between 1991 and 2004; all sixty-three launches were successes, making the atlas ii a highly reliable space launch system.the atlas line was continued by the atlas iii, used between 2000 and 2005, and the atlas v which is still in use.additional commercial and u.s. government sales resulted in production increases leading to greater than 60 vehicles being produced and launched.atlas ii was developed from the atlas i and featured numerous upgrades over that vehicle.atlas ii was launched from launch complex 36 at cape canaveral space force station in florida as well as space launch complex 3e at vandenberg space force base in california.all launches were successful.the increased thrust, engine efficiency, and propellant capacity enabled the vehicle to lift payloads of 6,100 pounds (2,767 kg) into geostationary transfer orbit (gto), or more on later atlas ii variants.atlas ii also featured lower-cost electronics, an improved flight computer, and longer propellant tanks than its predecessor, atlas i.the stage was powered by 3 rs-56 rocket engines (derived from the rs-27 main engine of the delta ii rocket) burning 156 t (344,000 lb) of rp-1 and liquid oxygen.the two booster engines were

liftoff and then jettisoned the 2 rs-56-oba side engines and their support structure during ascent.the two rs-56-oba engines were integrated into a single unit called the ma-5a and shared a common gas generator.they burned for approximately 164 seconds before being jettisoned, when acceleration reached approximately 5.0-5.5 g. the central sustainer engine on the first stage, an rs-56-osa, would burn for an additional 125 seconds after their jettison.it featured better efficiency at high altitudes than the rs-56-obas.the first stage also had the option to be fitted with 4 castor 4a solid rocket boosters as part of the iias version, each providing an additional 478.3 kn (107,500 lbf) of thrust for 56 seconds.the first two boosters were ignited at liftoff, and the other two were ignited after the first two burnt out.both pairs of boosters were jettisoned shortly after their respective burns.centaur ii featured 2 rl-10a-3-3a engines, burning liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen.it featured propellant tanks 0.9 meters longer than its predecessor, centaur i, giving the stage more propellant and therefore higher performance.due to the super cold propellants inside centaur, foam

this provided an economic base for prosperity that was to last into the final quarter of the 20th century.the watt steam engine was invented in birmingham.the resulting high level of social mobility also fostered a culture of political radicalism which, under leaders from thomas attwood to joseph chamberlain, was to give it a political influence unparalleled in britain outside london and a pivotal role in the development of british democracy.from the summer of 1940 to the spring of 1943, birmingham was bombed heavily by the german luftwaffe in what is known as the birmingham blitz.the damage done to the city's infrastructure, in addition to a deliberate policy of demolition and new building by planners, led to extensive urban regeneration in subsequent decades.birmingham's economy is now dominated by the service sector.the city is a major international commercial centre and an important transport, retail, events and conference hub.its metropolitan economy is the second-largest in the united kingdom with a gdp of $121.1bn (2014).its five universities, including the university of birmingham, make it the largest centre of higher education in the country outside london.birmingham's major cultural institutions – the city of birmingham symphony orchestra, birmingham royal ballet, birmingham repertory theatre, library of birmingham and barber institute of fine arts – enjoy international reputations, and the city has vibrant and influential grassroots art, music, literary and culinary scenes.the city also successfully hosted the 2022 commonwealth games.in 2021, birmingham was the third most visited city in the uk by people from foreign nations.beorma, after whom the tribe was named, could have been its leader at the time of the anglo-saxon settlement, a shared ancestor, or a mythical tribal figurehead.place names ending in -ingahām are characteristic of primary settlements established during the early phases of anglo-saxon colonisation of an area, suggesting that birmingham was probably in existence by the early 7th century at the latest.surrounding settlements with names ending in -tūn ('farm'), -lēah ('woodland clearing'), -worð ('enclosure') and -field ('open ground') are likely to be secondary settlements created by the later expansion of the anglo-saxon population, in some cases possibly on earlier british sites.the many burnt mounds that can still be seen around the city indicate that modern humans first intensively settled and cultivated the area during the bronze age, when a substantial but short-lived influx of population occurred between 1700 bc and 1000 bc, possibly caused by conflict or immigration in the surrounding area.","birmingham | postalcode | b postcode area","place names ending in -ingahām are characteristic of primary settlements established during the early phases of anglo-saxon colonisation of an area, suggesting that birmingham was probably in existence by the early 7th century at the latest."

york and first published by simon and schuster in new york city in march 1932.an english edition published by john lane followed in 1933.it has 'nearly half-a-million words' and was described as 'probably the longest undivided novel in english'.it is the second of powys's wessex novels, along with wolf solent (1929), weymouth sands (1934) and maiden castle (1936).powys was an admirer of thomas hardy and these novels are set in somerset and dorset, parts of hardy's mythical wessex.the action occurs over roughly a year, and the first two chapters of a glastonbury romance take place in norfolk, where the late canon william crow's will is read, and the crow family learn that his secretary-valet john geard has inherited his wealth.also in norfolk, a romance begins between cousins, john and mary crow.however, after an important scene at the ancient monument of stonehenge, the rest of the action takes place in or near the somerset town of glastonbury, which is some ten miles north of the village of montacute.powys's father, the reverend charles francis powys (1843–1923), was parish priest of montacute from 1885 to 1918, and it was here that powys grew up.the grail legends associated with the town of glastonbury are of major importance in this novel, and welsh mythology has, for the first time, a significant role.the climax of volume 1 is geard's pageant, part of his plan to revive glastonbury as a place of religious pilgrimage.the pageant has three parts: 'arthurian scenes at the beginning', then a 'christmas 'passion play' ', followed by a final 'prehistoric portion'.however the pageant ends abruptly during the second part, when owen evans, who is enacting christ's death on the cross, collapses.in volume 2's final chapter, 'the flood', the sea invades the land, geard dies, and glastonbury becoming an island once again.the action begins in norfolk with the funeral canon william crow and the reading of his will, and where the romance between the cousins john and mary crow begins.the crow family members are shocked to learn that william' crow's secretary-valet, john geard, has inherited most of the deceased's wealth.john crow then sets off to walk to glastonbury, where he will rejoin mary.while crossing salisbury plain he is offered a ride in owen evans' car and the two men visit stonehenge.a central aspect of a glastonbury romance is the attempt by john geard, ex-minister, who becomes the mayor, to restore glastonbury to its medieval glory as a place of religious pilgrimage.on the other hand, the glastonbury industrialist philip crow, along with john and mary crow, and tom barter, all whom are from norfolk, view the myths and legends of the town with contempt.philip's vision is of a future with more mines and more factories.john crow, however, as he is penniless, takes on the task of organizing a pageant for geard.at the same time an alliance of anarchists, marxists, and jacobins try to turn glastonbury into a commune.like powys, owen evans is a devoted student of welsh mythology.he also resembles powys in that he has strong urges toward violence and sadism, and is often tempted by sadistic pornography.but evans is not the only character that resembles his creator, as both john geard and john crow reflect, in different ways, aspects of powys's personality.a glastonbury romance has several climactic moments, before the major final one.firstly there is sam dekker's decision, following his grail vision, to give-up of his adulterous affair with nell zoyland, and to lead a monk-like existence.","a glastonbury romance |

"antioquia (spanish pronunciation: [anˈtjokja] (listen)) is one of the 32 departments of colombia, located in the central northwestern part of colombia with a narrow section that borders the caribbean sea.most of its territory is mountainous with some valleys, much of which is part of the andes mountain range.antioquia has been part of many territorial divisions of former countries created within the present-day territory of colombia.prior to adoption of the colombian constitution of 1886, antioquia state had its own sovereign government.the department covers an area of 63,612 km2 (24,427 sq mi), and has a population of 5,819,358 (2006 estimate); 6.6 million (2010 estimate).antioquia borders the córdoba department and the caribbean sea to the north; chocó to the west; the departments of bolivar, santander, and boyaca to the east; and the departments of caldas and risaralda to the south.medellín is antioquia's capital city, and the second-largest city in the country.other important towns are santa fe de antioquia, the old capital located on the cauca river, and puerto berrío on the magdalena.it is predominantly mountainous, crossed by the cordillera central and the cordillera occidental of the andes.the cordillera central divides to form the aburrá valley, in which the capital, medellín, is located.the cordillera central forms the plateaus of santa rosa de osos and rionegro.while 80% of the department's territory is mountainous, antioquia also has lowlands in bajo cauca, magdalena medio, and eastern sonsón, as well as coastline on the caribbean sea, in urabá.this area has a tropical climate and is of high strategic importance due to its location.their origin is uncertain, as specialists believe that some came from the caribbean island, and others that they originated among peoples along the interior amazon river.antioquia was primarily populated by the carib people.some scattered groups of muisca were said to be present in the darién region (in modern-day panama), a coastal region in the far north of antioquia.but, no historical records refer to muisca in antioquia.the carib occupying territory in antioquia were known by classifications of smaller groups, called families.some of the most prominent native families in the region include the catía, nutabe, and tahamíe, who all inhabited the central region of antioquia.the quimbaya occupied southern antioquia.the historic quimbaya, carib and muisca tribes were the most prominent groups encountered by the conquistadors upon their arrival in antioquia.the quimbaya had a lot to do with the development of the department.the spaniards had a turbulent history of encounters with the carib.although the tribe was numerous and known for its warring culture, the various peoples of this family became dominated or exterminated by the spaniards in the process of conquest and colonization.as did all native americans, they suffered extremely high mortality due to newly introduced infectious eurasian diseases, to which they had no immunity.in some cases the surviving natives dispersed to evade the spanish, and some committed suicide to escape being enslaved or subjected to forced labor.many survivors fled to the modern department of chocó.in antioquia, the natives disappeared almost completely.at present, the autochthon population of the department of antioquia scarcely reaches 0.5% of the total population, even though the vast majority of locals have a significant indigenous genetic component (26% in average).others, later pointed to basque origins as a way to understand the population's idiosyncrasies.prominent among these, were two american historians: everett hagen and leonard kasdan.hagen looked at the telephone directory in medellin in 1957 and found that 15% of the surnames were of basque origin, finding then that employers in the percentage of surnames was up to 25%, which led him to conclude that basque settlers were very important in explaining the increased industrial development of antioquia in the colombian context.","antioquia department | country | colombia bandeja paisa | region | antioquia department","antioquia (spanish pronunciation: [anˈtjokja] (listen)) is one of the 32 departments of colombia, located in the central northwestern part of colombia with a narrow section that borders the caribbean sea.antioquia has been part of many territorial divisions of former countries created within the present-day territory of colombia.prior to adoption of the colombian constitution of 1886, antioquia state had its own sovereign government.hagen looked at the telephone directory in medellin in 1957 and found that 15% of the surnames were of basque origin, finding then that employers in the percentage of surnames was up to 25%, which led him to conclude that basque settlers were very important in explaining the increased industrial development of antioquia in the colombian context."

"the æsir are the gods of the principal pantheon in old norse religion and norse mythology.the second norse pantheon is the vanir, these two pantheons waged war against each other, resulting in a unified pantheon.in genitival compounds, it takes the form ása-, e.g.in ása-þórr ('thor of the æsir'), besides ás- found in ás-brú 'gods' bridge' (the rainbow), ás-garðr, ás-kunnigr 'gods' kin', ás-liðar 'gods' leader', ás-mogin 'gods' might' (especially of thor), ás-móðr 'divine wrath' etc.landâs 'national god' (patrium numen) is a title of thor, as is allmáttki ás 'almighty god', while it is odin who is 'the' ás.there is also old east norse dialectal *ās-ækia (own: *áss-ekja), i.e.'god ride' (thor riding in his wagon), resulting in the modern swedish word for atmospheric thunder – åska (the form åsekia attested as late as the 17th c.).the feminine form is ásynja (plural ásynjur).the feminine suffix -ynja (proto-norse: -unjō) is known from a few other nouns denoting female animals, such as apynja 'female monkey', vargynja 'she-wolf'.a cognate word for 'goddess' is not attested outside old norse, and a corresponding west germanic word would have been separately derived with the feminine suffixes -inī or -injō.áss is attested in other germanic languages, such as old english ōs (plural ēse), denoting a deity in anglo-saxon paganism, preserved only as a prefix ōs- in personal names (e.g.osborne, oswald) and some place-names, and as the genitive plural ēsa (ēsa gescot and ylfa gescot, 'the shots of anses and of elves', i.e.'elfshot', jaculum divorum et geniorum).in old high german, old dutch and old saxon, the word is only attested in personal and place names, e.g.ansebert, anselm, ansfrid, vihans.the old high german is reconstructed as *ans, plural *ensî.gothic has ans- as reported by jordanes, who wrote in the 6th century ce, presumably a latinized form of actual plural *anseis), as a name for euhemerized semi-divine early gothic rulers.the reconstructed proto-germanic form is *ansuz (plural *ansiwiz).the ansuz rune, ⟨ᚫ⟩, was named after the æsir.*ansuz, itself comes from proto-indo-european *h₂énsus (gen. h₂n̥sóus) 'life force' (cf.avestan aŋhū 'lord; lifetime', ahura 'godhood', sanskrit ásu 'life force', ásura 'demons' ( *h₂n̥suró).it is widely accepted that this word is further related to *h₂ens- 'to engender' (cf.hittite hass- 'to procreate, give birth', tocharian b ās- 'to produce').while other cultures have had 'elder' and 'younger' families of gods, as with the titans versus the olympians of ancient greece, the æsir and vanir were portrayed as contemporaries.the two clans of gods fought battles, concluded treaties, and exchanged hostages (freyr and freyja are mentioned as hostages).an áss like ullr is almost unknown in the myths, but his name is seen in a lot of geographical names, especially in sweden, and may also appear on the 3rd century thorsberg chape, suggesting that his cult was widespread in prehistoric times.the names of the first three æsir in norse mythology, vili, vé and odin all refer to spiritual or mental state, vili to conscious will or desire, vé to the sacred or numinous and óðr to the manic or ecstatic.the vanir appear to have mainly been connected with cultivation and fertility and the æsir were connected with power and war.in the eddas, however, the word æsir is used for gods in general, while asynjur is used for the goddesses in general.for example, in the poem skírnismál, freyr was called 'prince of the æsir'.in the prose edda, njörðr was introduced as 'the third among the æsir', and among the asynjur, freya is always listed second only to frigg.in surviving tales, the origins of many of the æsir are unexplained.","aenir | author | garth nix aenir | isbn number | 0-439-17684-0","no related information" "a bacon explosion is a pork dish that consists of bacon wrapped around a filling of spiced sausage and crumbled bacon.the american-football-sized dish is then smoked or baked.it became known after being posted on the bbq addicts blog, and spread to the mainstream press with numerous stories discussing the dish.in time, the articles began to discuss the internet 'buzz' itself.the bacon explosion is made of bacon, sausage, barbecue sauce, and barbecue seasoning or rub.the bacon is assembled in a weave to hold the sausage, sauce, and crumbled bacon.once rolled, the bacon explosion is cooked (either smoked or baked), basted, cut, and served.the bacon explosion's creators produced a cookbook featuring the recipes which ultimately won the 2010 gourmand world cookbook awards for 'best barbecue book in the world'.the bacon explosion also won at the 2013 blue ribbon bacon festival.it quickly became an internet phenomenon, generating more than 500,000 hits and 16,000 links to the blog, and was even included on political blogs because 'republicans like meat.'there are fan clubs and follow-up videos of various attempts to create the dish.the inventors are experienced barbecue competition participants from kansas city, and compete in cook-offs as the burnt finger bbq team.according to the telegraph, 'they came up with the delicacy after being challenged on twitter to create the ultimate bacon recipe.'they christened their innovation the 'bacon explosion: the bbq sausage recipe of all recipes.'the bacon explosion is similar to a number of previously published recipes.day and chronister do not claim to have invented the concept, but assert the term 'bacon explosion' as a trademark.it is made from two pounds (0.91 kg) of thick cut bacon, two pounds of italian sausage, one jar of barbecue sauce, and one jar of barbecue rub/seasoning.the bacon explosion is constructed by weaving the bacon together to serve as a base.the base is seasoned and followed by the layering of sausage meat and crumbled bacon.barbecue sauce and more seasoning is added before rolling it into a giant 'sausage-shaped monster', sometimes using aluminum foil to help (note: it is not cooked inside the foil).it takes about an hour per inch of thickness to cook and is then basted with more barbecue sauce, sliced into rounds, and served.a prepared bacon explosion contains at least 5,000 kilocalories (21,000 kj) and 18 oz (500 g) of fat, though a smaller 8-ounce (230 g) portion contains 878 kcal (3,700 kj) and 2.1 oz (60 g) of fat.preparation and result == recognition == the popularity of the recipe has led to international coverage;

"the united states of america (u.s.a. or usa), commonly known as the united states (u.s. or us) or america, is a country primarily located in north america.it consists of 50 states, a federal district, five major unincorporated territories, nine minor outlying islands, and 326 indian reservations.the united states is the world's third-largest country by both land and total area.it shares land borders with canada to its north and with mexico to its south and has maritime borders with the bahamas, cuba, russia, and other nations.with a population of over 333 million, it is the most populous country in the americas and the third most populous in the world.the national capital of the united states is washington, d.c., and its most populous city and principal financial center is new york city.indigenous peoples have inhabited the americas for thousands of years.beginning in 1607, british colonization led to the establishment of the thirteen colonies in what is now the eastern united states.they quarreled with the british crown over taxation and political representation, leading to the american revolution and proceeding revolutionary war.the united states declared independence on july 4, 1776, becoming the first nation-state founded on enlightenment principles of unalienable natural rights, consent of the governed, and liberal democracy.during the nineteenth century, the united states political philosophy was influenced by the concept of manifest destiny, as the country expanded across the continent in a number of wars, land purchases, and treaties, eventually reaching the pacific ocean by the middle of the century.sectional division surrounding slavery in the southern united states led to the secession of the confederate states of america, which fought the remaining states of the union during the american civil war (1861–1865).with the union's victory and preservation, slavery was abolished nationally by the thirteenth amendment.by 1900, the united states had established itself as a world power, becoming the world's largest economy.after japan's attack on pearl harbor in 1941, the u.s. entered world war ii on the allied side.the aftermath of the war left the united states and the soviet union as the world's two superpowers and led to the cold war.during the cold war, both countries engaged in a struggle for ideological dominance but avoided direct military conflict.they also competed in the space race, which culminated in the 1969 landing of apollo 11, making the u.s. the first and only nation to ever land humans on the moon.with the soviet union's collapse and the subsequent end of the cold war in 1991, the united states emerged as the world's sole superpower.the united states government is a federal republic and a representative democracy with three separate branches of government.it has a bicameral national legislature composed of the house of representatives, a lower house; and the senate, an upper house based on equal representation for each state.many policy issues are decentralized, with widely differing laws by jurisdiction.the u.s. ranks highly in international measures of quality of life, income and wealth, economic competitiveness, human rights, innovation, and education; it has low levels of perceived corruption and the highest median income per person of any polity in the world.it has high levels of incarceration and inequality and lacks universal health care.as a melting pot of cultures and ethnicities, the u.s. has been shaped by the world's largest immigrant population.a developed country, the american economy accounts for approximately a quarter of global gdp and is the world's largest by gdp at market exchange rates.the united states is the world's largest importer and second-largest exporter.","united states | language | english language a fortress of grey ice | country | united states","no related information" "bandeja paisa (paisa refers to a person from the paisa region and bandeja is spanish for platter), with variations known as bandeja de arriero, bandeja montañera, or bandeja antioqueña, is one of the most representative meals in colombian cuisine, especially of the antioquia department and the paisa region, as well as with the colombian coffee-growers axis (the departments of caldas, quindío and risaralda), and part of valle del cauca and the northwest of tolima.the main characteristic of this dish is the generous amount and variety of food in a traditional bandeja paisa: red beans cooked with pork, white rice, carne molida (ground meat), chicharrón, fried egg, plantain (plátano maduro), chorizo, arepa, hogao sauce, black pudding (morcilla), avocado and lemon.it is served in a platter or a tray.in the 19th century, french and british colonialists also brought their cuisine with them.the current form and presentation of the paisa platter is relatively recent.there are no references in the food writing about this dish before 1950.it is probably an interpretation of the local restaurants of simpler peasant dishes.one of its most prominent features is the juxtaposition of native american and european ingredients, which is also observed in other mestizo dishes of latin american cuisine, such as venezuelan pabellón criollo or costa rican gallo pinto.side dishes include mazamorra (a maize-derived beverage similar to atole) with milk and ground panela.there are several variants of the dish all over the country with deletion or addition of ingredients, which cannot be recognized as bandeja paisa in the strictest sense.some antioquian restaurants offer an 'extended' bandeja paisa, also known as 'seven meats platter', which contains, besides the aforementioned ingredients, grilled steak, grilled pork and liver.a diet-friendly version of the dish is very popular in bogotá, which replaces pork with grilled chicken breast, black pudding with salad and chorizo with a wiener.a number of people opposed this designation, arguing that only a small percentage of the colombian population consumes it on a regular basis and that it originated in a single region of colombia (antioquia).however, the suggested alternative, sancocho, is not a distinctively colombian dish, as it is known and enjoyed in many other countries, such as cuba, venezuela, the canary islands, puerto rico, the dominican republic and panama.due to the widespread ubiquity of sancocho, often colombian ajiaco is instead considered the most indicative colombian dish.nonetheless, the commercial colombian tourism industry has pushed ahead without official government sanction by emblazoning ads, menus, and brochure information with imagery of the bandeja paisa as the single most typical colombian dish.","bandeja paisa | ingredient | lemon lemon | genus | citrus","the main characteristic of this dish is the generous amount and variety of food in a traditional bandeja paisa: red beans cooked with pork, white rice, carne molida (ground meat), chicharrón, fried egg, plantain (plátano maduro), chorizo, arepa, hogao sauce, black pudding (morcilla), avocado and lemon."

"adirondack regional airport (iata: slk, icao: kslk, faa lid: slk) is a public use airport located four nautical miles (5 mi, 7 km) northwest of the central business district of saranac lake, in franklin county, new york, united states.the airport is owned by the town of harrietstown and is situated in the north-central adirondacks two miles (3 km) from lake clear.it is served by one commercial airline, subsidized by the essential air service program.as per federal aviation administration records, the airport had 4,252 passenger boardings (enplanements) in calendar year 2008, 4,809 enplanements in 2009, and 5,762 in 2010.it is included in the national plan of integrated airport systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a non-primary commercial service airport (between 2,500 and 10,000 enplanements per year).their thinking was that such a development would play an important part in the future development of the adirondacks.due to the mountainous nature of the region many thought such a development would not be likely.however, after countless reviews of area maps, a plateau large enough for airport purposes was identified within a few miles of saranac lake village.the planning board's search for an airport site had been prompted by an announcement from washington, d.c., that congress had appropriated funds for the building of a system of airports throughout the country.there was, among other problems, however, one restriction.the land for an airport site, to be acceptable to the federal government, had to be publicly owned.the ideal site which these men had spotted on the map was part of the holdings of the paul smith's electric company.since no other tract of suitable terrain was to be found within a radius of some 40 miles (64 km), the whole effort might have bogged down but for the public-spirited cooperation of the paul smith's electric company which, in the interests of regional development, immediately deeded the 1,200-acre (4.9 km2) tract to the town of harrietstown without cost.with the requirement of public ownership thus complied with, events moved swiftly toward the realization of an airport for the adirondacks.through persistent effort on the part of various citizens, who maintained close contact with washington, d.c., the site was inspected and federal expenditures for construction of a class iii airport were approved.step by step, the town of harrietstown town board and the saranac lake airport commission worked closely with state and federal agencies in the building process.construction of the airfield was completed in 1942.the town of harrietstown issued bonds to augment the available funds and erected a terminal building in 1948 and a 100 by 100-foot (30 m) hangar in 1950.at the time, the airport was rated as one of the best built class iii airports in the country.two commercial airlines, colonial airlines and resort airlines, served the region at that time.airmail service was provided by colonial airlines.the volume of air express business handled by railway express agency increased steadily, as did the number of privately owned aircraft using the field.resort traffic response was immediate and increased steadily.the airport was officially dedicated to the service of the people of the adirondacks on july 10, 1949.since 1960, the town of harrietstown has operated the airport.the saranac lake airport was renamed in 1989 to the adirondack regional airport.commutair, a marketing affiliate of us air, began serving adirondack regional airport in 1991.in 2000, the federal aviation administration cited adirondack regional airport for several violations, including failure to conduct monthly fire-and-rescue training and triennial full-scale emergency exercises, faded markings on the taxiway, cracked pavement on runways and the taxi-way, and broken lights.","adirondack regional airport | runwaylength | 12190 adirondack regional airport | cityserved | lake placid new york adirondack regional airport | cityserved | saranac lake new york","adirondack regional airport (iata: slk, icao: kslk, faa lid: slk) is a public use airport located four nautical miles (5 mi, 7 km) northwest of the central business district of saranac lake, in franklin county, new york, united states.the airport is owned by the town of harrietstown and is situated in the north-central adirondacks two miles (3 km) from lake clear.however, after countless reviews of area maps, a plateau large enough for airport purposes was identified within a few miles of saranac lake village.step by step, the town of harrietstown town board and the saranac lake airport commission worked closely with state and federal agencies in the building process.the saranac lake airport was renamed in 1989 to the adirondack regional airport."

qadisiyah ab included accommodation for 5,000 personnel and the necessary infrastructure including public facilities (mosques, outdoor and indoor olympic swimming pool, football field, sports hall, cinema, library, elementary school, high school, hospital and clinic) and fortified military facilities (military airport, shelters for personnel and equipment, shelters for bombers and fighters and military barracks).the hardened aircraft shelters built here and throughout iraq by the yugoslavs were nicknamed 'yugos'.at the time they were considered state of the art but were rendered obsolete in

"beef kway teow or beef kwetiau is a maritime southeast asian dish of flat rice noodles (kway teow) stir-fried and topped with slices of beef or sometimes beef offal, served either dry or with soup.the dish is commonly found in southeast asian countries, especially singapore and indonesia, and can trace its origin to chinese tradition.it is a popular dish in singaporean cuisine and among chinese indonesians, where it locally known in indonesian as kwetiau sapi.as the result, there are various recipes of beef kway teow exist.however, the dry version of beef kway teow is mixed with sesame oil, soy sauce and chilli; thick gravy is not usually served in this version.kwetiau with beef is known in three variants; kwetiau siram sapi (poured upon), kwetiau goreng sapi (stir fried), and kwetiau bun sapi (a rather moist version).the kwetiau siram sapi is a kwetiau noodle poured (indonesian: siram) with beef in thick flavorful sauce.the beef sauce has thick and rather gloppy glue-like consistency acquired from corn starch as thickening agent.the kwetiau goreng sapi is a variant of popular kwetiau goreng (stir fried kway teow) but distinctly served with beef.while the kwetiau bun sapi is similar to common fried kwetiau but rather moist and soft due to water addition.the common ingredients are flat rice noodles (kwetiau), thin slices of beef tenderloin, garlic, sliced bakso meatballs, caisim, napa cabbage, oyster sauce, beef stock, soy sauce, black pepper, sugar, corn starch, and cooking oil.","beef kway teow | region | singapore singapore | leadername |

it immediately succeeded in its aim to help these labels.at the time, the term indie was used literally to describe independently distributed records.by 1985, indie had come to mean a particular genre, or group of subgenres, rather than simply distribution status.the use of the term alternative to describe rock music originated around the mid-1980s; at the time, the common music industry terms for cutting-edge music were new music and postmodern, respectively indicating freshness and a tendency to recontextualize sounds of the past.","alternative rock | musicfusiongenre | nu metal andrew white musician | genre | alternative rock","bands such as the white stripes and the strokes found success in the early 2000s, influencing an influx of new alternative rock bands that drew inspiration from garage rock, post-punk and new wave found commercial success in the early and mid 2000s, establishing the garage rock revival and post-punk revival movements."

"a desert is a barren area of landscape where little precipitation occurs and, consequently, living conditions are hostile for plant and animal life.the lack of vegetation exposes the unprotected surface of the ground to denudation.about one-third of the land surface of the earth is arid or semi-arid.this includes much of the polar regions, where little precipitation occurs, and which are sometimes called polar deserts or 'cold deserts'.deserts can be classified by the amount of precipitation that falls, by the temperature that prevails, by the causes of desertification or by their geographical location.deserts are formed by weathering processes as large variations in temperature between day and night put strains on the rocks, which consequently break in pieces.although rain seldom occurs in deserts, there are occasional downpours that can result in flash floods.rain falling on hot rocks can cause them to shatter, and the resulting fragments and rubble strewn over the desert floor are further eroded by the wind.this picks up particles of sand and dust, which can remain airborne for extended periods – sometimes causing the formation of sand storms or dust storms.wind-blown sand grains striking any solid object in their path can abrade the surface.rocks are smoothed down, and the wind sorts sand into uniform deposits.the grains end up as level sheets of sand or are piled high in billowing sand dunes.other deserts are flat, stony plains where all the fine material has been blown away and the surface consists of a mosaic of smooth stones, often forming desert pavements, and little further erosion takes place.other desert features include rock outcrops, exposed bedrock and clays once deposited by flowing water.temporary lakes may form and salt pans may be left when waters evaporate.there may be underground sources of water, in the form of springs and seepages from aquifers.where these are found, oases can occur.plants and animals living in the desert need special adaptations to survive in the harsh environment.plants tend to be tough and wiry with small or no leaves, water-resistant cuticles, and often spines to deter herbivory.some annual plants germinate, bloom and die in the course of a few weeks after rainfall, while other long-lived plants survive for years and have deep root systems able to tap underground moisture.animals need to keep cool and find enough food and water to survive.many are nocturnal, and stay in the shade or underground during the heat of the day.they tend to be efficient at conserving water, extracting most of their needs from their food and concentrating their urine.some animals remain in a state of dormancy for long periods, ready to become active again during the rare rainfall.they then reproduce rapidly while conditions are favorable before returning to dormancy.people have struggled to live in deserts and the surrounding semi-arid lands for millennia.nomads have moved their flocks and herds to wherever grazing is available, and oases have provided opportunities for a more settled way of life.the cultivation of semi-arid regions encourages erosion of soil and is one of the causes of increased desertification.desert farming is possible with the aid of irrigation, and the imperial valley in california provides an example of how previously barren land can be made productive by the import of water from an outside source.many trade routes have been forged across deserts, especially across the sahara, and traditionally were used by caravans of camels carrying salt, gold, ivory and other goods.large numbers of slaves were also taken northwards across the sahara.some mineral extraction also takes place in deserts, and the uninterrupted sunlight gives potential for the capture of large quantities of solar energy.","dessert | dishvariation | ice cream bionico | course | dessert","no related information" "antwerp international airport (iata: anr, icao: ebaw) is a small international airport serving the city of antwerp in the province of antwerp in the flemish region of belgium.located 2.9 nautical miles (5.4 km;

uruguay was colonized by europeans late relative to neighboring countries.the spanish founded montevideo as a military stronghold in the early 18th century because of the competing claims over the region.uruguay won its independence between 1811 and 1828, following a four-way struggle between portugal and spain, and later argentina and brazil.it remained subject to foreign influence and intervention throughout the 19th century, with the military playing a recurring role in domestic politics.a series of economic crises and the political repression against left-wing guerrilla activity in the late 1960s and early 1970s put an end to a democratic period that had begun in the early 20th century, culminating in the 1973 coup d'état, which established a civic-military dictatorship.the military government persecuted leftists, socialists, and political opponents, resulting in deaths and numerous instances of torture by the military; the military relinquished power to a civilian government in 1985.uruguay is today a democratic constitutional republic, with a president who serves as both head of state and head of government.uruguay is ranked first in the americas for democracy, and first in latin america in peace, low perception of corruption, and e-government.it is the lowest-ranking south american nation in the global terrorism index, and ranks second in the continent on economic freedom, income equality, per-capita income, and inflows of fdi.uruguay is the third-best country on the continent in terms of human development index, gdp growth, innovation, and infrastructure.uruguay is regarded as one of the most socially progressive countries in latin america.it ranks high on global measures of personal rights, tolerance, and inclusion issues, including its acceptance of the lgbt community.the country has legalized the consumption and production of cannabis, same-sex marriage, prostitution and abortion.uruguay is a founding member of the united nations, oas, and mercosur.there are several interpretations, including 'bird-river' ('the river of the uru, via charruan, urú being a common noun of any wild fowl).the name could also refer to a river snail called uruguá (pomella megastoma) that was plentiful across its shores.one of the most popular interpretations of the name was proposed by the renowned uruguayan poet juan zorrilla de san martín, 'the river of painted birds'; this interpretation, although dubious, still holds an important cultural significance in the country.in spanish colonial times, and for some time thereafter, uruguay and some neighboring territories were called banda oriental [del uruguay] ('eastern bank [of the uruguay river]'), then for a few years the 'eastern province'.since its independence, the country has been known as 'república oriental del uruguay', which literally translates to 'republic east of the uruguay [river]'.however, it is officially translated either as the 'oriental republic of uruguay' or the 'eastern republic of uruguay'.","uruguay | leadername | tabaré vázquez alfredo zitarrosa | birthplace | uruguay","no related information" "appleton international airport (iata: atw, icao: katw, faa lid: atw), formerly outagamie county regional airport, is an airport located in greenville, wisconsin, united states, 3 nautical miles (5.6 km;

other major cities are antwerp, ghent, charleroi, liège, bruges, namur, and leuven.belgium is a sovereign state and a federal constitutional monarchy with a parliamentary system.its institutional organization is complex and is structured on both regional and linguistic grounds.it is divided into three highly autonomous regions: the flemish region (flanders) in the north, the walloon region (wallonia) in the south, and the brussels-capital region.brussels is the smallest and most densely populated region, as well as the richest region in terms of gdp per capita.belgium is also home to two main linguistic communities: the flemish community, which constitutes about 60 percent of the population, and the french community, which constitutes about 40 percent of the population.a small german-speaking community, numbering around one percent, exists in the east cantons.the brussels-capital region is officially bilingual in french and dutch, although french is the dominant language.belgium's linguistic diversity and related political conflicts are reflected in its complex system of governance, made up of six different governments.since the middle ages, belgium's central location near several major rivers has meant that the area has been relatively prosperous, connected commercially and politically to its bigger neighbours.the country as it exists today was established following the 1830 belgian revolution, when it seceded from the united kingdom of the netherlands, which had incorporated the southern netherlands (which comprised most of modern-day belgium) after the congress of vienna in 1815.the name chosen for the new state is derived from the latin word belgium, used in julius caesar's 'gallic wars', to describe a nearby region in the period around 55 bce.belgium has also been the battleground of european powers, earning the moniker the 'battlefield of europe', a reputation reinforced in the 20th century by both world wars.belgium participated in the industrial revolution, and during the course of the 20th century, possessed a number of colonies in africa.between 1885 and 1908, the congo free state, which was privately owned by king leopold ii of belgium, was characterized by widespread atrocities and disease, leading to a population decline of millions; amid public outcry in europe, belgium annexed the territory as a colony.the belgian colonial empire gained independence between 1960 and 1962.the second half of the 20th century was marked by rising tensions between the dutch-speaking and the french-speaking citizens fueled by differences in language and culture and the unequal economic development of flanders and wallonia.this continuing antagonism has led to several far-reaching state reforms, resulting in the transition from a unitary to a federal arrangement between 1970 and 1993.despite the reforms, tensions between the groups have remained, if not increased;

amid public outcry in europe, belgium annexed the territory as a colony."

"poaceae () or gramineae () is a large and nearly ubiquitous family of monocotyledonous flowering plants commonly known as grasses.it includes the cereal grasses, bamboos and the grasses of natural grassland and species cultivated in lawns and pasture.the latter are commonly referred to collectively as grass.with around 780 genera and around 12,000 species, the poaceae is the fifth-largest plant family, following the asteraceae, orchidaceae, fabaceae and rubiaceae.the poaceae are the most economically important plant family, providing staple foods from domesticated cereal crops such as maize, wheat, rice, barley, and millet as well as feed for meat-producing animals.they provide, through direct human consumption, just over one-half (51%) of all dietary energy; rice provides 20%, wheat supplies 20%, maize (corn) 5.5%, and other grains 6%.some members of the poaceae are used as building materials (bamboo, thatch, and straw); others can provide a source of biofuel, primarily via the conversion of maize to ethanol.grasses have stems that are hollow except at the nodes and narrow alternate leaves borne in two ranks.the lower part of each leaf encloses the stem, forming a leaf-sheath.the leaf grows from the base of the blade, an adaptation allowing it to cope with frequent grazing.grasslands such as savannah and prairie where grasses are dominant are estimated to constitute 40.5% of the land area of the earth, excluding greenland and antarctica.grasses are also an important part of the vegetation in many other habitats, including wetlands, forests and tundra.though they are commonly called 'grasses', groups such as the seagrasses, rushes and sedges fall outside this family.the rushes and sedges are related to the poaceae, being members of the order poales, but the seagrasses are members of order alismatales.however, all of them belong to the monocot group of plants.grass leaves are nearly always alternate and distichous (in one plane), and have parallel veins.: 11  each leaf is differentiated into a lower sheath hugging the stem and a blade with entire (i.e., smooth) margins.: 11  the leaf blades of many grasses are hardened with silica phytoliths, which discourage grazing animals; some, such as sword grass, are sharp enough to cut human skin.a membranous appendage or fringe of hairs called the ligule lies at the junction between sheath and blade, preventing water or insects from penetrating into the sheath.: 11  flowers of poaceae are characteristically arranged in spikelets, each having one or more florets.: 12  the spikelets are further grouped into panicles or spikes.the part of the spikelet that bears the florets is called the rachilla.a spikelet consists of two (or sometimes fewer) bracts at the base, called glumes, followed by one or more florets.: 13  a floret consists of the flower surrounded by two bracts, one external—the lemma—and one internal—the palea.the flowers are usually hermaphroditic—maize being an important exception—and mainly anemophilous or wind-pollinated, although insects occasionally play a role.the perianth is reduced to two scales, called lodicules,: 11  that expand and contract to spread the lemma and palea; these are generally interpreted to be modified sepals.the fruit of grasses is a caryopsis, in which the seed coat is fused to the fruit wall.: 16  a tiller is a leafy shoot other than the first shoot produced from the seed.: 11  === growth and development === grass blades grow at the base of the blade and not from elongated stem tips.this low growth point evolved in response to grazing animals and allows grasses to be grazed or mown regularly without severe damage to the plant.: 113–114 three general classifications of growth habit present in grasses: bunch-type (also called caespitose), stoloniferous, and rhizomatous.","poaceae | class | monocotyledon poaceae | order | commelinids ardmore airport new zealand | 2nd runway surfacetype | poaceae","poaceae () or gramineae () is a large and nearly ubiquitous family of monocotyledonous flowering plants commonly known as grasses."

cranium, a collaboration with jussi lehtisalo of finnish band circle who toured with isis in 2009.raised in new mexico, turner moved to the boston area, where he attended art school and formed isis and hydra head.in june 2003, turner moved operations of both the band and label to los angeles, california.turner now resides in vashon, wa which is also the base of operations for hydra head and his various other activities.in partnership with his wife faith coloccia, turner founded another record label, sige, in march 2011.it has gone on to release material from his musical collaboration with coloccia, mamiffer.sige is distributed by the business.at an early age, his family moved to new mexico, where he was raised.his mother was a teacher 'who taught a progressive curriculum' and his father an author, 'mainly [of] non-fiction'.turner describes his upbringing, surrounded by his parents' writer, artist and photographer friends, as 'creatively nurturing'.at age 17, he started a company that sold rare punk rock records via mail-order.he later moved to boston to attend art school at the school of the museum of fine arts, and in 1995 began releasing music.by 1997, the hydra head label was becoming a respectable small record label.turner describes his early industriousness as being motivated in part by boredom: i grew up in new mexico, and there wasn't a whole lot as far as youth culture is concerned.especially when i started to get interested in straight edge and wasn't doing drugs anymore, there was really nothing for me to do.so that was like a big reason for me, i suppose, to become really productive.also, i've never been a really social person.so there's not a lot of time taken up by my social life.and music has always been a very very big part of my life.i guess just a combination of those factors is why everything got started so early.around 1997–99, turner was living with future isis bassist and co-founder jeff caxide; until this point, he had been a member of the bands union suit and hollomen.isis was formed in 1997 out of a dissatisfaction with said bands' musical direction and turner and caxide's respective degrees of creative control.in mid-2009, turner moved from los angeles, where both isis and hydra head records were based at the time, to seattle with his then-girlfriend, faith coloccia; they went on to wed in september of the same year.he has also acquired a custom guitar from the electrical guitar company (as did fellow isis guitarist michael gallagher).in the past, turner has also used a gibson les paul standard, prs ce24, and has played through sunn, mesa boogie, and mackie amplifiers.when playing with isis, turner and his fellow guitarists usually tuned their instruments (low to high) b-f#-b-e-g#-b, to achieve a heavier sound.they also used other tunings, though less frequently, such as f# (octave below)-f#-b-e-g#-b.in 2016, turner described the live rig he used with sumac as consisting of two custom-built guitars from the electrical guitar company.both have lucite bodies and aluminum necks, and custom-wound wide frequency range pickups.the newer of the two—a prototype for a signature model—has a

"ara veinticinco de mayo (v-2) was an aircraft carrier in the argentine navy from 1969 to 1997.the english translation of the name is twenty-fifth of may, which is the date of argentina's may revolution in 1810.the ship previously served in the royal navy as hms venerable and the royal netherlands navy as hnlms karel doorman.she was deployed south during the beagle crisis in 1978 and in the first weeks of the falklands war (spanish: guerra de las malvinas), where her aircraft were deployed against the royal navy task force, but spent the bulk of the war in port.as a colossus-class aircraft carrier, she was named hms venerable and saw service in the british pacific fleet.venerable only served three years in the royal navy before being sold to the netherlands as hnlms karel doorman.after a boiler room fire, the carrier was rebuilt, and sold to argentina.the argentines already operated a carrier, ara independencia, also a former royal navy colossus class.after independencia was decommissioned in 1970, veinticinco de mayo was the sole remaining carrier in the argentine fleet.she could carry up to 24 aircraft.the air group started with f9f panthers and f9f cougar jets and later these were replaced with a-4q skyhawks supported by s-2 tracker anti-submarine warfare aircraft and sikorsky sea king helicopters.in september 1969, during the voyage of the recently bought veinticinco de mayo from the netherlands, hawker siddeley demonstrated their harrier gr.1 on board the carrier for a possible sale to the argentine navy.during the 1970s the ship was refitted and updated several times, though in each case the duration of each repair period was never more than 3–5 months, allowing her to be available to deploy.her last pre-falklands refit occurred during 1981, when she received an update to her radar, arresting gear, steam catapult and (most noticeably) the forward edge of the port side angled deck was filled out via an enlarged sponson.these improvements would theoretically enable her to operate the super etendard strike aircraft purchased from france, but it was discovered during testing that the catapult had difficulties launching the aircraft type.as a result, her strike airwing was limited to the a-4q skyhawks.on the day of the invasion, she waited with 1500 army soldiers outside stanley harbour as the first submarine and boat-landed commandos secured landing areas and then argentine marines made the main amphibious landing.her aircraft were not used during the invasion.later, in defence of the occupation, she was deployed in a task force north of the falkland islands, with the cruiser ara general belgrano to the south.the british had assigned hms splendid (s106), a nuclear-powered submarine, to track down veinticinco de mayo and sink her if necessary.rear admiral sandy woodward, commanding the british task force from hms hermes stated in his book one hundred days that, had splendid located the carrier, he would have 'recommended in the strongest possible terms to the commander-in-chief admiral sir john fieldhouse that we take them both out this night'.following the outbreak of hostilities on 1 may 1982, the argentine carrier planned an attack on the royal navy task force.veinticinco de mayo's s-2 trackers detected the british fleet late that day, and a strike by all eight a-4q skyhawk jets was prepared, scheduled to take-off at dawn.the attack did not take place, because subsequent tracker sorties had failed to relocate the british fleet.after the british nuclear-powered submarine hms conqueror sank general belgrano, veinticinco de mayo returned to port.the naval a-4q skyhawks flew the rest of the war from the airbase in río grande, tierra del fuego.","ara veinticinco de mayo v-2 |

"american motors corporation (amc; commonly referred to as american motors) was an american automobile manufacturing company formed by the merger of nash-kelvinator corporation and hudson motor car company on may 1, 1954.at the time, it was the largest corporate merger in u.s. history.american motors' most similar competitors were those automakers that held similar annual sales levels such as studebaker, packard, kaiser motors, and willys-overland.their largest competitors were the big three—ford, general motors, and chrysler.american motors' production line included small cars - the rambler american, which began as the nash rambler in 1950, hornet, gremlin, and pacer; intermediate and full-sized cars, including the ambassador, rambler classic, rebel, and matador; muscle cars, including the marlin, amx, and javelin; and early four-wheel drive variants of the eagle and the jeep wagoneer, the first true crossovers in the u.s. market.regarded as 'a small company deft enough to exploit special market segments left untended by the giants', american motors was widely known for the design work of chief stylist dick teague, who 'had to make do with a much tighter budget than his counterparts at detroit's big three', but 'had a knack for making the most of his employer's investment'.after periods of intermittent independent success, renault acquired a major interest in american motors in 1979, and the company was ultimately acquired by chrysler in 1987.the new corporation would be called the american motors corporation.an earlier corporation with the same name, co-founded by louis chevrolet, had existed in plainfield, new jersey from 1916 through 1922 before merging into the bessemer–american motors corporation.the nash-kelvinator/hudson deal was a straight stock transfer (three shares of hudson listed at 11⅛, for two shares of american motors and one share of nash-kelvinator listed at 17⅜, for one share of american motors) and finalized in the spring of 1954, forming the fourth-biggest auto company in the u.s. with assets of us$355 million and more than $100 million in working capital.the new company retained hudson ceo a.e.barit as a consultant and he took a seat on the board of directors.nash's george w. mason became president and ceo.mason, the architect of the merger, believed that the survival of the u.s.'s remaining independent automakers was dependent on their joining in one multiple-brand company capable of challenging the big three as an equal.the 'frantic 1953–54 ford/gm price war' had a devastating impact on the remaining 'independent' automakers.the reasons for the merger between nash and hudson included helping cut costs and strengthen their sales organizations to meet the intense competition expected from autos' big three.one quick result from the merger was the doubling up with nash on purchasing and production, allowing hudson to cut prices an average of $155 on the wasp line, and up to $204 on the more expensive hornet models.after the merger, amc had its first profitable quarter during the second three months of 1955, earning $1,592,307, compared to a loss of $3,848,667 during the same period in the previous year.mason also entered into informal discussions with james j. nance of packard to outline his strategic vision.interim plans were made for american motors to buy packard ultramatic automatic transmissions and packard v8 engines for certain american motors products.in july 1954, packard acquired studebaker.the new studebaker-packard corporation (s-p) made the new 320 cu in (5.2 l) packard v8 engine and packard's ultramatic automatic transmission available to american motors for its 1955 nash ambassador and hudson hornet models.when mason died in 1954, george w. romney succeeded him.ironically, romney had once been offered nance's job.in 1948, romney received offers from packard for the post of chief operating officer and from nash for the number two position in the company.","american motors | fate | eagle automobile amc matador | manufacturer | american motors","american motors corporation (amc; commonly referred to as american motors) was an american automobile manufacturing company formed by the merger of nash-kelvinator corporation and hudson motor car company on may 1, 1954.american motors' production line included small cars - the rambler american, which began as the nash rambler in 1950, hornet, gremlin, and pacer; intermediate and full-sized cars, including the ambassador, rambler classic, rebel, and matador; muscle cars, including the marlin, amx, and javelin; and early four-wheel drive variants of the eagle and the jeep wagoneer, the first true crossovers in the u.s. market."

"alfredo zitarrosa (march 10, 1936 – january 17, 1989) was a uruguayan singer-songwriter, poet and journalist.he specialized in uruguayan and argentinean folk genres such as zamba and milonga, and he became a chief figure in the nueva canción movement in his country.a staunch supporter of communist ideals, he lived in exile between 1976 and 1984.he is widely regarded as one of the most influential singer-songwriters of latin america.shortly after being born, blanca handed over her son to be raised by carlos durán, a man of many trades, and his wife, doraisella carbajal, then employed at the council for children, becoming alfredo 'pocho' durán.they lived in several cities neighbourhoods, and moved between 1944 and the end of 1947, they moved to the town of santiago vázquez.they frequently visited the countryside near trinidad, capital city of the flores department, where alfredo's adoptive mother was born.this childhood experience stayed with him forever, notably in his repertoire, the majority of which contains rhythms and songs of peasant origin, mainly milongas.alfredo briefly returned with his adoptive family, to montevideo and in early adolescence, moved on to live with his biological mother and her husband, the argentine alfredo nicolás zitarrosa, who would eventually give him his surname.together with his newborn sister, they lived in the area now known as rincón de la bolsa, at km.29.50 of the old route to colonia, san josé department.based there, he commuted to study at the high school in montevideo, where he eventually moved into his early youth.first he lived with the duráns and then in mrs. ema's pension, located at colonia and medanos (today barrios amorín) streets, to fill after the famous attic of the house which was used as a pension and was owned by blanca iribarne, his mother, located on yaguarón street (today aquiles lanza) 1021, in front of the plaza currently bearing his name nearby the central cemetery.he worked, among other duties, as a seller of furniture, subscriptions to a medical society, clerical and in a print shop.some time later -his first employer recalls with special affection- a certain pachelo, which was introduced by one of his colleagues in their usual trip to montevideo daily shipments during his high school years.he began his artistic career in 1954, as a radio broadcaster, entering as a presenter and entertainer, librettist and informativist, or even as an actor.he was also a writer, poet, and journalist, working for the famous weekly newspaper marcha.while he was in peru, forced by circumstances and somewhat fortuitously, he made his professional debut as a singer.this occurred on february 20, 1964, in a program on channel 13, panamericana television, thus beginning an uninterrupted career.zitarrosa once recalled this experience: 'no tenía ni un peso, pero sí muchos amigos.uno de ellos, césar durand, regenteaba una agencia de publicidad y por sorpresa me incluyó en un programa de tv, y me obligó a cantar.canté dos temas y cobré 50 dólares.fue una sorpresa para mí, que me permitió reunir algunos pesos…' ('i had no money, but i had many friends.one of them, cesar durand, happened to manage a publicity agency and i was included in a tv program, and forced to sing.i was paid 50 dollars for two songs.it was a surprise for me, and it allowed me to earn some money…') shortly thereafter, going back to bolivia by uruguay, he conducted several programs on radio altiplano of la paz, debuting later in montevideo, back in 1965, in the auditorium of sodre (radio broadcasting serviceofficer ).","alfredo zitarrosa | recordlabel | rca records alfredo zitarrosa | genre | zamba artform alfredo zitarrosa | background | solo singer","no related information" "atlas ii was a member of the atlas family of launch vehicles, which evolved from the successful atlas missile program of the 1950s.the atlas ii was a direct evolution of the atlas i, featuring longer first stage tanks, higher-performing engines, and the option for strap-on solid rocket boosters.it was designed to launch payloads into low earth orbit, geosynchronous transfer orbit or geosynchronous orbit.sixty-three launches of the atlas ii, iia and iias models were carried out between 1991 and 2004; all sixty-three launches were successes, making the atlas ii a highly reliable space launch system.the atlas line was continued by the atlas iii, used between 2000 and 2005, and the atlas v which is still in use.additional commercial and u.s. government sales resulted in production increases leading to greater than 60 vehicles being produced and launched.atlas ii was developed from the atlas i and featured numerous upgrades over that vehicle.atlas ii was launched from launch complex 36 at cape canaveral space force station in florida as well as space launch complex 3e at vandenberg space force base in california.all launches were successful.the increased thrust, engine efficiency, and propellant capacity enabled the vehicle to lift payloads of 6,100 pounds (2,767 kg) into geostationary transfer orbit (gto), or more on later atlas ii variants.atlas ii also featured lower-cost electronics, an improved flight computer, and longer propellant tanks than its predecessor, atlas i.the stage was powered by 3 rs-56 rocket engines (derived from the rs-27 main engine of the delta ii rocket) burning 156 t (344,000 lb) of rp-1 and liquid oxygen.the two booster engines were the rs-56-oba variants (the complete assembly of both engines and the aft skirt was referred to as the ma-5a), with high thrust but moderate efficiency.the sustainer (center) engine was the rs-56-osa variant, featuring much less thrust but higher efficiency at high altitudes than the booster engines.the vernier engines used on the first stage of the atlas i (and all previous atlas models) were replaced by a hydrazine-fueled roll control system on atlas ii.this system, mounted on the interstage between the first and second stages, utilized small thrusters to control the vehicle's roll.compared to atlas i, the atlas ii first stage was 2.7 m (8 ft 10 in) taller.the atlas ii was the last atlas rocket to use the 'stage-and-a-half' technique, where it ignited all 3 rs-56 engines at liftoff and then jettisoned the 2 rs-56-oba side engines and their support structure during ascent.the two rs-56-oba engines were integrated into a single unit called the ma-5a and shared a common gas generator.they burned for approximately 164 seconds before being jettisoned, when acceleration reached approximately 5.0-5.5 g. the central sustainer engine on the first stage, an rs-56-osa, would burn for an additional 125 seconds after their jettison.it featured better efficiency at high altitudes than the rs-56-obas.the first stage also had the option to be fitted with 4 castor 4a solid rocket boosters as part of the iias version, each providing an additional 478.3 kn (107,500 lbf) of thrust for 56 seconds.the first two boosters were ignited at liftoff, and the other two were ignited after the first two burnt out.both pairs of boosters were jettisoned shortly after their respective burns.centaur ii featured 2 rl-10a-3-3a engines, burning liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen.it featured propellant tanks 0.9 meters longer than its predecessor, centaur i, giving the stage more propellant and therefore higher performance.due to the super cold propellants inside centaur, foam insulation was installed onto the outer metal skin on the stage to help mitigate propellant boiloff inside the tank.","atlas ii | launchsite | cape canaveral air force station atlas ii | manufacturer | lockheed martin","atlas ii was developed from the atlas i and featured numerous upgrades over that vehicle.atlas ii was launched from launch complex 36 at cape canaveral space force station in florida as well as space launch complex 3e at vandenberg space force base in california.the increased thrust, engine efficiency, and propellant capacity enabled the vehicle to lift payloads of 6,100 pounds (2,767 kg) into geostationary transfer orbit (gto), or more on later atlas ii variants.atlas ii also featured lower-cost electronics, an improved flight computer, and longer propellant tanks than its predecessor, atlas i."

"dead man's plack is a grade-ii listed 19th-century monument to æthelwald, ealdorman of east anglia, who, according to legend, was killed in 963 near the site where it stands by his rival in love, king edgar i.the name is more probably derived from a corruption of 'dudman's platt', from dudman — who is recorded as a resident in 1735 — and platt, meaning a plot of land.the monument was erected in 1825 at harewood forest, between the villages of picket twenty and longparish, hampshire, by lt. col. william iremonger.on its south side an inscription in gothic script reads: about the year of our lord dcccclxiii upon this spot beyond the time of memory called deadman’s plack, tradition reports that edgar, surnamed the peaceable, king of england, in the ardour of youth love and indignation, slew with his own hand his treacherous and ungrateful favourite, owner of this forest of harewood, in resentment of the earl’s having basely betrayed and perfidiously married his intended bride and beauteous elfrida, daughter of ordgar, earl of devonshire, afterwards wife of king edgar, and by him mother of king ethelred ii.queen elfrida, after edgar’s death, murdered his eldest son, king edward the martyr, and founded the nunnery of wor-well.an inscription on the north side of the plinth reads: 'this monument was erected by col william iremonger ad mdcccxxv'.on meeting her, æthelwald was 'smitten with her beauty' and married her himself.æthelwald then returned to the king and told him that she was 'a girl of vulgar and common place appearance, and by no means worthy' of the king's hand, while concealing his own marriage to her.discovering the deception through court gossip, edgar swore vengeance and arranged a hunt in the harewood forest to which he invited æthelwald.during the hunt, edgar murdered æthelwald with a javelin, and subsequently took ælfthryth as his wife and queen.william's account was later repeated by david hume (1711–1776), a scottish historian, philosopher, economist, diplomat and essayist, in his 6-volume work the history of england, published between 1754–1761.thomas babington macaulay (1800–1859), in his preface to lays of ancient rome (1842), says the story has 'a most suspicious air of romance' and 'greatly resembles' some of the legends of early rome.macaulay writes: 'when we turn to william of malmesbury, we find that hume, in his eagerness to relate these pleasant fables, has overlooked one very important circumstance.william does indeed tell both the stories; but he gives us distinct notice that he does not warrant their truth, and that they rest on no better authority than that of ballads.'edward augustus freeman (1823–1892) debunks the story as a 'tissue of romance' in his 1875 historic essays and writes: 'the process by which legend gets transmuted into apparent history could not have been better described than it is by lord macaulay.'freeman also refers to another contemporary chronicler, geoffrey gaimar, whose l'estoire des engleis ('history of the english people'; 1136–1140) describes æthelwald's death at the hands of unidentified armed men in wherwell forest (harewood forest).elizabeth norton, a historian specialising in the queens of england, concludes that 'the evidence certainly does not suggest that [æthelwald] was murdered' and that the story related by william of malmesbury is 'a later elaboration' of the reason behind ælfthryth's foundation of nearby wherwell abbey, 'which was popularly considered to have been carried out as an act of atonement.'dudman is recorded as a resident in 1735 and 'platt' referred to a 'plot of land'.spaul explains: 'the legend of edgar and ælfthryth as fabricated by romantic poets in the 12th century and related by william of malmesbury, gave an excuse for colonel iremonger, a 19th-century antiquarian, to erect a monument in his part of harewood forest.","dead mans plack | dedicatedto | æthelwald ealdorman of east anglia dead mans plack | material | rock geology","dead man's plack is a grade-ii listed 19th-century monument to æthelwald, ealdorman of east anglia, who, according to legend, was killed in 963 near the site where it stands by his rival in love, king edgar i."

"colonel albert jennings fountain (october 23, 1838 – disappeared february 1, 1896) was an american attorney who served in the texas senate and the new mexico house of representatives.following a purge of corruption among cattle rustlers that fountain investigated and prosecuted, he and his eight-year-old son henry disappeared near white sands, new mexico territory.their bloodstained wagon and other evidence of an ambush were recovered, but the bodies were never found.suspicion centered on two rival landowners, oliver m. lee and albert bacon fall.lee and two employees were tried for the murder of henry fountain, but acquitted after a defense by fall.no charges were ever filed for the death of albert fountain.he went to california as a young man and began calling himself by an anglicised version of his mother's family name.(accounts differ as to why he did so.)fountain studied law in california and was admitted to the bar in 1860.working as a reporter for the sacramento union, he travelled to nicaragua in 1860 to cover the filibustering expedition of william walker.angering walker by his reports, fountain was arrested and sentenced to be shot.however, he escaped and returned to california.in august 1861, during the american civil war, fountain enlisted in the company e of the 1st california infantry regiment of the union army and was elected first sergeant of his company.he took part in the 1862 recapture of the new mexico territory as a member of the california column.in october 1862, he married mariana pérez of mesilla.they would become the parents of four sons and two daughters.later commissioned a second lieutenant, he was discharged on august 31, 1864.fountain almost immediately joined the new mexico volunteers because of the ongoing indian wars.in june 1865, he was seriously wounded while pursuing hostile apaches.he spent a night trapped under his dead horse, with a bullet in his thigh, an arrow in his forearm, and another arrow in his shoulder.on his recovery, fountain was discharged as a brevet captain.fountain settled in el paso, texas, working for the united states property commission, which investigated and disposed of former confederate property.he was then made the customs collector for the el paso region.fountain was next appointed an election judge, and finally became the assessor and collector of internal revenue for the western district of texas.in 1870, fountain became a co-founder of the church of st. clement, the first protestant church in el paso.in november 1869, fountain won a seat as a republican in the texas senate, serving in the twelfth and thirteenth texas legislatures.he was elected as president pro tempore during the second session of the twelfth legislature and served as lieutenant governor ex officio at the same time, as the office was vacant.fountain's most notable accomplishment was pushing through the bill that re-established the texas rangers, which had been abolished after the civil war.fountain's radical republican views angered texas democrats and he was challenged to several duels, resulting in him killing at least one man, frank williams.in 1873, fountain moved from el paso to mesilla with his wife and their five children.there he became a lawyer, using his fluent spanish to good advantage in jury trials.fountain was appointed assistant district attorney and also served as probate judge and a deputy court clerk.in 1877, he founded a newspaper, the mesilla valley independent, which was issued in both english and spanish.he also founded the mesilla dramatic society and the mesilla valley opera house, now the fountain theater, both originally operated by his family.","albert jennings fountain | inofficewhilevicepresident | edmund j davis albert jennings fountain | deathplace | new mexico territory","colonel albert jennings fountain (october 23, 1838 – disappeared february 1, 1896) was an american attorney who served in the texas senate and the new mexico house of representatives.following a purge of corruption among cattle rustlers that fountain investigated and prosecuted, he and his eight-year-old son henry disappeared near white sands, new mexico territory.fountain almost immediately joined the new mexico volunteers because of the ongoing indian wars." "alberto teisaire (20 may 1891 – 11 september 1963) was an argentine naval officer and vice president of argentina.he enrolled in the argentine naval academy in 1908 and, upon graduation in 1912, was accepted to the united states naval academy.there, he was commissioned as a submarine officer in the u.s. navy, during world war i.returning to argentina, he married duilia fayo lonne and was eventually named commander of the navy's flagship, the historic sarmiento frigate.teisaire later taught at the argentine naval academy and held numerous policy-making posts in that service, including ones in the naval requisitions department, the argentine naval delegations in the united states and europe, as head of the navy's river fleet (1938), and as assistant director of the important navy mechanics' school, in 1940, where he specialized in the instruction of navigation and hydrology.he became a reliable ally of the new war and labor minister, col. juan perón, whose support of organized labor and their platform had provoked growing rivalries within the military regime.teisaire became perón's most prominent ally in the government when, in july, he was named interior minister (at the time, overseeing law enforcement).he retired as rear admiral in 1945 to pursue a seat in the argentine senate, ahead of the february 1946 general elections.elected as senator on perón's labor party ticket, teisaire represented the city of buenos aires, a district normally leaning towards perón's chief opposition, the centrist ucr.he, however, did not enjoy support from the president's influential first lady, eva perón, who refused his request to take part in her 1947 'rainbow tour' because (in her words): 'i did not want that fruitcake creating a scandal in paris, when for that i already have paquito, who at least makes me laugh.'teisaire did well in his career in the senate, even so.he was named provisional president of the senate in 1947, and was reelected senator in 1951.he was elected to the constitutional assembly of 1949, which drafted a replacement of the 1853 constitution of argentina (reinstated in 1957).he was named head of the peronist party's superior council in 1952, effectively making him the third-most powerful member of the administration (after interior minister ángel borlenghi and perón, himself).teisaire introduced the lions club into argentina in 1954, and received the german order of merit.controversy surrounding the president's in-laws and political violence both by and against his peronist movement dominated headlines in the first half of 1953, and perón took the opportunity of upcoming legislative polls to test his popularity.the argentine constitution did not require it at the time, but a special election was announced to replace the late vice president, hortensio quijano, and perón nominated teisaire as his candidate for the post.the april 1954 elections increased the peronists' overwhelming majority in congress and elected teisaire vice president by a 30% margin of victory.following this success, perón began to dispense with his hitherto warm relations with the catholic church by banning a number of their organizations and periodicals, and with the unprecedented, december 22 legalization of divorce and prostitution.the vice president supported these moves, arguing that argentina's catholic majority were mostly non-practicing and, by extension, probably amenable to perón's push to limit their influence.the miscalculation proved fateful, however.the dispute damaged teisaire's influence among the largely conservative catholic navy commanders, who spitefully referred to the vice president as 'that freemason,' and soon destroyed military loyalty for the administration itself.a series of violent confrontations from june to september 1955 ended with perón's september 19 resignation and exile.his 'confession' was produced into a 12-minute propaganda film by the revolución libertadora, which ordered the footage shown in all movie theatres.","alberto teisaire | deathplace | buenos aires buenos aires | leadername | diego santilli","he retired as rear admiral in 1945 to pursue a seat in the argentine senate, ahead of the february 1946 general elections.elected as senator on perón's labor party ticket, teisaire represented the city of buenos aires, a district normally leaning towards perón's chief opposition, the centrist ucr."

veneto, and owned by paluani, a bakery product company and the inspiration for their original name, paluani chievo.during its years as a professional club, chievo shared the 38,402 seater stadio marcantonio bentegodi stadium with its cross-town rivals hellas verona.following the club's exclusion from professional football in 2021, chievo is solely running as a youth team for the current 2021–22 season.the club was excluded from professional football because of financial problems.initially the club was not officially affiliated to the italian football federation (figc), but nonetheless played several amateur tournament and friendly matches under the denomination o.n.d.chievo, a title imposed by the fascist regime.the club's formal debut in an official league was on 8 november 1931.the team colours at the time were blue and white.chievo disbanded in 1936, however, due to economic woes but returned to play in 1948 after world war ii, being registered in the regional league of seconda divisionecode: ita promoted to code: it (second division).in 1957, the team moved to the field 'carlantonio bottagisio', where they played until 1986.in 1959, after the restructuring of the football leagues, chievo was admitted to play the seconda categoria (second category), a regional league placed next-to-last in the italian football pyramid.that year, chievo changed its name to cardi chievo, after a new sponsor, and was quickly promoted to the prima categoria, from which it experienced its first-ever relegation in 1962.under campedelli's presidency, chievo climbed through the entire italian football pyramid, reaching the serie d after the 1974–75 season.under the name 'paluani chievo', the team was promoted to serie c2 in 1986.as a consequence of promotion, chievo was forced to move to the stadio marcantonio bentegodi, the main venue in verona; another promotion, to serie c1, followed in 1989.in 1990, the team changed its name to its current one, 'a.c.chievoverona.'in 1992, president luigi campedelli, who had returned at the helm of the club two years before, died of a heart attack, and his son luca campedelli, aged just 23, became the new and youngest chairman of an italian professional football club.campedelli promoted giovanni sartori to director of football and named alberto malesani as the new head coach.under malesani, the team astonishingly won the serie c1 and was promoted to serie b, where city rival hellas verona was playing at the time.in 1997, after malesani signed for fiorentina, silvio baldini was appointed the new head coach.the following season, with domenico caso as the coach, saw the first dismissal of a coach during the presidency of luca campedelli, with caso being fired and replaced with lorenzo balestro.it was during these years that the nickname 'mussi volanti' ('flying donkeys') was born.it originated from supporters of their crosstown rivals hellas, who would mock long-suffering chievo supporters that chievo will only be promoted if 'donkeys could fly' (equivalent of the english language falsism 'if pigs could fly', denoting an impossible dream).in 2000–01, luigi delneri was signed as coach and led chievo, by virtue of its third-place finish in serie b, to promotion to serie a, the first time in team history that it had reached the top tier of italian football.however, they became the surprise team in the league, playing often spectacular and entertaining football and even leading the league for six consecutive weeks.the club finally ended the season with a highly

"(410777) 2009 fd is a carbonaceous sub-kilometer asteroid and binary system, classified as near-earth object and potentially hazardous asteroid of the apollo group, discovered on 24 february 2009 by astronomers of the spacewatch program at kitt peak national observatory near tucson, arizona, in the united states.until 2019, the asteroid's modelled orbit placed it at risk of a possible future collision with earth in 2185.with a palermo technical impact hazard scale rating of -0.44, it had the fifth highest impact threat of all known asteroids based on its estimated diameter, kinetic yield, impact probability, and time interval.observations to 2019 extended the observation arc by four years and detected a favourable yarkovsky effect, which ruled out impact in 2185.using observations from 16 november 2020, the asteroid was removed from the sentry risk table on 19 november 2020.because there were previous observations found in images taken by the spacewatch survey some 3 weeks prior, on 24 february 2009, the minor planet center assigned the discovery credit to spacewatch under the discovery assignment rules.2009 fd made a close pass to earth on 27 march 2009 at a distance of 0.004172 au (624,100 km; 387,800 mi) and another on 24 october 2010 at 0.0702 au.2009 fd was recovered at apparent magnitude 23 on 30 november 2013 by cerro paranal observatory, several months before the close approach of april 2014 when it passed 0.1 au from earth.it brightened to roughly apparent magnitude 19.3 around mid-march 2014.one radar doppler observation of 2009 fd was made in 2014.the october–november 2015 earth approach was studied by the goldstone deep space network.this gave it an estimated mass of around 2,800,000 tonnes.but work by amy mainzer using neowise data in 2014 showed that it could be as large as 472 metres with an albedo as low as 0.01.because 2009 fd (k09f00d) was only detected in two (w1+w2) of the four wavelengths the suspected neowise diameter is more of an upper limit.radar observations in 2015 showed it to be a binary asteroid.the primary is 120–180 meters in diameter and the secondary is 60–120 meters in diameter.as of 2016, the approach of 29 march 2185 had a 1 in 710 chance of impacting earth.the nominal 2185 earth approach distance was 0.009 au (1,300,000 km; 840,000 mi).orbit determination for 2190 is complicated by the 2185 close approach.the precise distance that it will pass from earth and the moon on 29 march 2185 will determine the 30 march 2190 distance.2009 fd should pass closer to the moon than earth on 29 march 2185.an impact by 2009 fd would cause severe devastation to a large region or tsunamis of significant size.in 2014 (with observations through 5 february 2014, creating an observation arc of 1807 days) the potential 2185 impact was ruled out.using the 2014 observations, the yarkovsky effect has become more significant than the position uncertainties.the yarkovsky effect has resulted in the 2185 virtual

classified as a near-earth object and potentially hazardous asteroid of the aten group, approximately 1.3 kilometers in diameter.it was discovered on 20 may 1999, by lincoln near-earth asteroid research (linear) at the lincoln laboratory's experimental test site in socorro, new mexico, united states.it is a mercury-crosser that comes extremely close to the sun at a perihelion of 0.2 au.its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.69 and an inclination of 39° with respect to the ecliptic.a first precovery was taken by 2mass at the fred lawrence whipple observatory in 1998, extending the body's observation arc by one year prior to its official discovery observation at socorro.as a potentially hazardous asteroid, it has an earth minimum orbital intersection distance of 0.0138 au (2,060,000 km) which corresponds to 5.4 lunar distances.on 25 may 2036, it will pass 0.0155 au (2,320,000 km) from earth.it was named from mohegan legend, after moshup, a giant who lived in the coastal areas of new england.the asteroid's companion is named squannit, after the wife of moshup and a medicine woman of the makiawisug (little people).the official naming citation was published by the minor planet center on 27 august 2019 (m.p.c.115894).the moon, named squannit and designated s/2001 (66391) 1, is approximately 360 metres in diameter, and orbits its primary in every 16 hours at a mean-distance of 2.6 kilometers.the presence of a companion was suggested by photometric observations made by pravec and šarounová and was confirmed by radar observations from arecibo observations and announced on 23 may 2001 (also see below).based on radar imaging, squannit's dimensions are estimated to be 595 × 450 × 343 meters.the observations were taken from may 21–23, 2001, by lance a. m. benner, steven j. ostro, jon d. giorgini, raymond f. jurgens, jean-luc margot and michael c. nolan.the collaborative asteroid lightcurve link adopts a diameter of 1.3 kilometers and derives an albedo 0.26 with an absolute magnitude of 16.5.the shapes of the two bodies and their dynamics are complex.with a dimension of approximately 1.42 × 1.36 × 1.18 kilometers for a simple triaxial ellipsoid, the asteroid has an oblate shape, which is dominated by an equatorial ridge at the body's potential-energy minimum.this bizarre property of the equatorial region means that it is close to breakup: raising a particle a meter above the surface would put it into orbit.as seen in the image at above right, the gravitational effects between the moon and the asteroid create a gigantic mountain extending in the equatorial plane around the entire asteroid.it was the first asteroid to be described as 'muffin-shaped', which is now understood to be a very common shape for asteroids in critical rotation, including 101955 bennu and 162173 ryugu.lightcurve analysis gave a rotation period of 2.7650 hours with a brightness variation of 0.12 magnitude (u=3).","66391 1999 kw4 | epoch | 2004-07-14 66391 1999 kw4 |

35,000,000 mi (0.374097 au).it orbits the sun at a distance of 1.2–4.1 au about once every 4 years and 4 months (i.e., 52 months or 1,587 days; semi-major axis of 2.66 au).its orbit has a high eccentricity of 0.53 and an inclination of 27° with respect to the ecliptic.the body's observation arc begins at the discovering observatory on 24 october 1924 (1924-10-24), the night after its official discovery observation.its next pass of the earth will be at a distance of 0.374097 au (56,000,000 km; 34,800,000 mi) on 13 october 2024 (2024-10-13).on 16 december 2176 (2176-12-16), it will pass at a distance of 0.02868 au (4,290,000 km; 2,670,000 mi) from mars.ganymede was a trojan prince abducted by zeus to serve as a cup-bearer to the greek gods.the name had previously also been given to jupiter's third moon, 'ganymede', which was discovered in 1610 by italian astronomer galileo galilei.a 1931 paper published the absolute magnitude, based on observations to date, as 9.24, slightly brighter than the present value of 9.45.ganymed is a stony s-type asteroid, in the tholen, smass and in the s3os2 taxonomy.this means that it is relatively reflective and composed of iron and magnesium silicates.spectral measurements put ganymed in the s (vi) spectral subtype, indicating a surface rich in orthopyroxenes, and possibly metals (although if metals are present they are covered and not readily apparent in the spectra).carry published a diameter 34.28±1.38 kilometers in 2012.an occultation of a star by ganymed was observed from california on 22 august 1985.additional observations in 2011 gave an occultation cross-section with a semi-major and minor axis of 39.3 and 18.9 kilometers, respectively.analysis of the best-rated lightcurves obtained by american photometrist frederick pilcher at his organ mesa observatory (g50) in new mexico during 2011 gave a rotation period of 10.297 hours with a consolidated brightness amplitude between 0.28 and 0.31 magnitude (u=3-/3/3).three studies using modeled photometric data from the uppsala asteroid photometric catalogue, wise thermal infrared data and other sources, gave a concurring period of 10.313, 10.31284, and 10.31304 hours, respectively.each modeled lightcurve also determined two spin axes of (214.0°, −73.0°), (190.0°, −78.0°), as well as (198.0°, −79.0°) in ecliptic coordinates (λ, β;

has a relatively long rotation period of 34.3 hours.: 23  according to a different study, this object is also the namesake of the clematis family, a small family of 5–16 asteroids hence they may have arisen from the same collisional event.all members have a relatively high orbital inclination.it orbits the sun in the outermost asteroid belt at a distance of 3.0–3.5 au once every 5 years and 10

"adare manor is a manor house located on the banks of the river maigue in the village of adare, county limerick, ireland, the former seat of the earl of dunraven and mount-earl.the present house was built in the early 19th century, though retaining some of the walls of the 17th-century structure.it is now the adare manor hotel & golf resort, a luxury hotel, and contains the michelin-starred oak room restaurant.in 1226, king henry iii gave a grant to justiciary of ireland geoffroi de morreis (de marisco) to hold an eight-day annual fair following the feast of st. james at his manor of adare.the lands subsequently were granted to the earls of kildare, members of the welsh-norman fitzgerald family who came to ireland in 1169.in 1536, the act of attainder was passed against thomas fitzgerald, 10th earl of kildare, whose lands, castles and manors were forfeited to the crown.in a letter dated 24 march 1547, the boy king edward vi granted the earls of desmond 'the manors and dominions of croom and adare, in the county of limerick, to hold for life.'the grant was short lived; the desmond rebellions brought control of the lands to the st. leger family.for the next century, the lands passed from 10 families: st. leger, zouch, gold, rigges, wallop, norreis (norris), jephson, evans, ormesby (ormsby), and then quin.thady quin, esq.(1645–1726) of gortfadda, county leitrim, purchased the moiety in 1669 and continued to add surrounding land through 1702.he received the last land grant for adare, on 16 december 1684, to hold the lands for a thousand years, 'paying to gilbert ormsby and his heirs the rent of £230.'the earliest section of the first manor house was presumably a square or oblong tower, likely erected by thady quin at the end of the 17th century.the deed of conveyance, dated 23 february 1721, transferred the following land to thady's eldest son, valentine quin: the estate of adare extended northwards nearly to the shannon, and comprehended a considerable portion of the parishes of kildimo and chapelrussell, and the north-western section of adare situate in the barony of coshma, with a portion of drehidtarsna, and parts of kilkeedy and croom, lying in the barony of pubblebrien.the manor of tobernea was situate in the south-eastern part of the county, embracing the extreme southern portion of the barony of coshma, with the adjacent part of coshlea, and contained a considerable part of the parishes of effin, ballingarry, and kilbreedy minor valentine quin was the grandfather of valentine richard quin (1752–1824), the first earl of dunraven.valentine richard quin, mp for kilmallock (1799–1800), was created a baronet of great britain in 1781 and was raised to the peerage in 1800 as baron adare.he was advanced to a viscountcy in 1816 as viscount mount earl and became viscount adare and the first earl of dunraven and mount-earl on 5 february 1822.he chose the title of dunraven in honour of his daughter-in-law caroline wyndham, daughter and heiress of thomas wyndham of dunraven castle, who in 1810 had married his eldest son and heir, windham henry quin.around 1785, the first earl of dunraven made significant alterations to adare manor, raising more walls and changing the entrance from the south front to the northwest side.in 1786, it was described as 'a very noble structure with fine and extensive demesnes.'valentine richard quin's earldom lasted only two years; upon his death to 1824 the title passed to windham henry quin, the second earl of dunraven and mount-earl.the new earl, who was suffering from gout and confined indoors, rebuilt his home, turning it from a classic georgian mansion into a large tudor revival manor.","adare manor | completiondate | 1862 adare manor | architect | james pain adare manor | owner | j p mcmanus","in 1226, king henry iii gave a grant to justiciary of ireland geoffroi de morreis (de marisco) to hold an eight-day annual fair following the feast of st. james at his manor of adare.the lands subsequently were granted to the earls of kildare, members of the welsh-norman fitzgerald family who came to ireland in 1169."

jan peters, who played 120 matches for az during this period scoring 30 goals from midfield; and hugo hovenkamp, who played 239 matches in defence for az from 1975 to 1983, as well as receiving 31 caps for the netherlands national team from 1977 to 1983 and playing each match in uefa euro 1980 while an az player.","az alkmaar | fullname | alkmaar zaanstreek az alkmaar | numberofmembers | 17023","no related information" "11264 claudiomaccone, provisional designation 1979 uc4, is a stony background asteroid and binary system from the middle regions of the asteroid belt, approximately 3 kilometers in diameter.it was discovered 16 october 1979, by nikolai chernykh at crimean astrophysical observatory in nauchnyj, on the crimean peninsula.it was named after the italian astronomer claudio maccone.its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.23 and an inclination of 4° with respect to the ecliptic.claudiomaccone comes closer to mars than to the other planets, repeatedly approaching the red planet as close as 0.47 au (70,300,000 km).in 2096 it makes a very rare approach to 65 gm.a first precovery was taken at palomar observatory in 1950, extending the body's observation arc by 29 years prior to its official discovery observation.lightcurve analysis gave a rotation period of 3.1872 hours with a brightness amplitude of 0.15 magnitude (u=n.a.).an identical period with an amplitude of 0.12 magnitude, was also published by petr pravec in 2006.after the binary nature of claudiomaccone was announced (see below), follow-up observations by a group of french, swiss and italian astronomers (including claudio maccone) in 2008 and 2012, gave a period 3.1873 and 3.18701 hours with an amplitude of 0.16 and 0.12 magnitude, respectively (u=2/2+).an identical orbital period is also given by pravec.the discovery was announced in december 2005, and the moon was provisionally designated s/2003 (11264) 1.based on a secondary to primary mean-diameter ratio of larger than 0.31, the moon's diameter is estimated to be at least 1.24 kilometers.its orbit around claudiomaccone has an estimated semi-major axis of 6 kilometers.in his book the sun as a gravitational lens: proposed space missions he proposed the construction and launch of a spacecraft–antenna, called the focal space mission.outside the solar system, at a distance of 550 au, focal could have a significantly better sensitivity detecting radio signals due to the sun's magnifying gravitational lensing effect, as predicted by general relativity.the official naming citation was published on 2 september 2001 (m.p.c.43382;

georgia, it is the principal city of the albany, georgia metropolitan area.the population was 77,434 at the 2010 u.s. census, making it the eighth-largest city in the state.it became prominent in the nineteenth century as a shipping and market center, first served by riverboats.scheduled steamboats connected albany with the busy port of apalachicola, florida.they were replaced by railroads.seven lines met in albany, and it was a center of trade in the southeast.it is part of the black belt, the extensive area in the deep south of cotton plantations.from the mid-20th century, it received military investment during world war ii and after, that helped develop the region.albany and this area were prominent during the civil rights era, particularly during the early 1960s as activists worked to regain voting and other civil rights.railroad restructuring and reduction in the military here caused job losses, but the city has developed new businesses.they used it for making arrowheads and other tools.in 1830 congress passed the indian removal act, and the united states made treaties to extinguish creek and other native american land claims in the southeast.the us army forcibly removed most of the native peoples to indian territory, lands west of the mississippi river.tift and his colleagues named the new town albany after the capital of new york; noting that new york's albany was a commercial center located at the headwaters of the hudson river, they hoped that their town near the headwaters of the flint would prove to be just as successful.it proved to be nowhere near as prosperous.alexander shotwell laid out the town in 1836, and it was incorporated as a city by an act of the general assembly of georgia on december 27, 1838.tift was the city's leading entrepreneur for decades.an ardent booster, he promoted education, business, and railroad construction.during the civil war he provided naval supplies and helped build two ships.he opposed radical reconstruction inside the state and in congress, and was scornful of the yankee carpetbaggers who came in.historian john fair concludes that tift became 'more southern than many natives.'his pro-slavery attitudes before the war and his support for segregation afterward made him compatible with georgia's white elite.this area was developed for cotton cultivation by planters, who used numerous enslaved african americans to clear lands and process the cotton.as a result of the planters' acquisition of slave workers, by 1840 dougherty county's majority population was black, composed overwhelmingly of slaves.the market center for cotton plantations, albany was in a prime location for shipping cotton to other markets by steamboats.in 1858, tift hired horace king, a former slave and bridge builder, to construct a toll bridge over the river.king's bridge toll house still stands.already important as a shipping port, albany later became an important railroad hub in southwestern georgia.seven lines were constructed to the town.an exhibit on trains is located at the thronateeska heritage center in the former railroad station.in the early years following the war, styles, like tift, took great exception to the radical reconstruction program then in force, and advocated for a more moderate response based on his interpretation of georgia's rights under the constitution.styles backed 'constitutional reconstruction' advanced by benjamin h. hill and sought support for the idea from the national democratic party.while on a trip to atlanta in may 1868, to meet with democratic party leaders, styles took measure of the contemporary atlanta newspapers, and found them lacking.","albany georgia | ispartof | united states united states | ethnicgroup | african americans","no

morgan designed and built 16 of the buildings on the property, of which 11 are still standing.in 1956 it became part of the state division of beaches and parks of california's department of natural resources, and moss beach was renamed asilomar state beach.asilomar is a derivation of the spanish phrase asilo al mar, meaning asylum or refuge by the sea.it is the native homeland of the rumsen ohlone people.probably because they had outgrown the space, and because the ywca had a goal of purchasing grounds, phoebe apperson hearst hosted the 1912 conference at her hacienda in pleasanton, california, with all proceeds of that year's conference going toward the purchase of a permanent home.a resulting ywca committee persuaded the pacific improvement company of pacific grove, california to deed 30 acres (120,000 m2) to the ywca in 1912.in early 1913 the ywca announced that julia morgan, already at work on the oakland ywca building, would design the campgrounds.construction began in the spring of 1913 and in august 1913 the social hall and the lodging longhouses opened with nearly 300 girls in attendance.merrill hall, the last of morgan's designs for asilomar, was dedicated in 1928.several other prominent california women including ellen browning scripps, mrs. warren olney jr. and mary sroufe merrill were involved in the creation of the retreat.the winning entry in the naming contest was by helen salisbury, a stanford student.her entry created a portmanteau from two spanish words: asilo and mar.the state of california acquired asilomar in 1956.john carl warnecke designed 7 new buildings to expand the grounds.asilomar was declared a national historic landmark in 1987 for its role in women's recreation, the development of the ywca, and the resort nature of nearby monterey, california.it is currently used primarily as a conference center for hire but is also open to individual lodging guests and is frequently used for family reunions and other social events.the grounds are open to the public.from 1956 until 1994 several non-profit corporations managed the conference grounds in cooperation with california state parks.delaware north companies parks and resorts operated the park from 1997 to 2007 under a concessionaire agreement.aramark won a new 20-year operating contract in january 2009 and began operations there in september of that year.to preserve the rustic atmosphere of the resort, there are no telephones or televisions in any of the rooms.however, wi-fi has recently been installed throughout the property.in october, 2012 construction began to improve asilomar's accessibility under americans with disabilities guidelines.this includes replacement of several old, worn, and rugged asphalt pathways and the construction of new paths made of brick pavers.construction work continued into 2014 and included modifications to improve interior access to several rooms as well as the exterior improvements.","asilomar conference

"karnataka (; iso: karnāṭaka, kannada pronunciation: [kɐˈɾnäːʈɐkɐ], also known as karunāḍu), formerly mysore state , is a state in the southwestern region of india.it was formed as mysore state on 1 november 1956, with the passage of the states reorganisation act, and renamed karnataka in 1973.the state was part of the carnatic region in british terminology.its capital and largest city is bengaluru (bangalore).karnataka is bordered by the lakshadweep sea to the west, goa to the northwest, maharashtra to the north, telangana to the northeast, andhra pradesh to the east, tamil nadu to the southeast, and kerala to the southwest.it is the only southern state to have land borders with all of the other four southern indian sister states.the state covers an area of 191,791 km2 (74,051 sq mi), or 5.83 percent of the total geographical area of india.it is the sixth-largest indian state by area.with 61,130,704 inhabitants at the 2011 census, karnataka is the eighth-largest state by population, comprising 31 districts.kannada, one of the classical languages of india, is the most widely spoken and official language of the state.other minority languages spoken include urdu, konkani, marathi, tulu, tamil, telugu, malayalam, kodava and beary.karnataka also contains some of the only villages in india where sanskrit is primarily spoken.though several etymologies have been suggested for the name karnataka, the generally accepted one is that karnataka is derived from the kannada words karu and nādu, meaning 'elevated land'.karu nadu may also be read as karu, meaning 'black' and nadu, meaning 'region', as a reference to the black cotton soil found in the bayalu seeme region of the state.the british used the word carnatic, sometimes karnatak, to describe both sides of peninsular india, south of the krishna.with an antiquity that dates to the paleolithic, karnataka has been home to some of the most powerful empires of ancient and medieval india.the philosophers and musical bards patronised by these empires launched socio-religious and literary movements which have endured to the present day.karnataka has contributed significantly to both forms of indian classical music, the carnatic and hindustani traditions.the economy of karnataka is the fifth-largest of any indian state with ₹20.5 trillion (us$260 billion) in gross domestic product and a per capita gdp of ₹305,000 (us$3,800).karnataka has the fifteenth-highest ranking among indian states in human development index.evidence of neolithic and megalithic cultures have also been found in the state.gold discovered in harappa was found to be imported from mines in karnataka, prompting scholars to hypothesise about contacts between ancient karnataka and the indus valley civilisation ca.3300 bce.prior to the third century bce, most of karnataka formed part of the nanda empire before coming under the mauryan empire of emperor ashoka.four centuries of satavahana rule followed, allowing them to control large areas of karnataka.the decline of satavahana power led to the rise of the earliest native kingdoms, the kadambas and the western gangas, marking the region's emergence as an independent political entity.the kadamba dynasty, founded by mayurasharma, had its capital at banavasi; the western ganga dynasty was formed with talakad as its capital.these were also the first kingdoms to use kannada in administration, as evidenced by the halmidi inscription and a fifth-century copper coin discovered at banavasi.these dynasties were followed by imperial kannada empires such as the badami chalukyas, the rashtrakuta empire of manyakheta and the western chalukya empire, which ruled over large parts of the deccan and had their capitals in what is now karnataka.the western chalukyas patronised a unique style of architecture and kannada literature which became a precursor to the hoysala art of the 12th century.","karnataka | has to its west | arabian sea acharya institute of technology | state | karnataka","karnataka is bordered by the lakshadweep sea to the west, goa to the northwest, maharashtra to the north, telangana to the northeast, andhra pradesh to the east, tamil nadu to the southeast, and kerala to the southwest."

and a strong and influential advocate for civil liberties.the asser levy public baths, the recreation center's main building, was designed by arnold w. brunner and martin aiken.its main entrance on asser levy place consists of two large arches flanked by pairs of columns.inside are recreational rooms, a swimming pool, and lockers.it originally had separate waiting rooms and showers for men and women, though the waiting rooms were subsequently combined and the showers relocated.outdoor recreational facilities, including additional swimming pools and the playground, surround the bathhouse.the bathhouse was built in 1905–1908 to alleviate sanitary problems in the city and was transferred to the new york city department of parks and recreation (nyc parks) in 1938.originally known as the east 23rd street baths, it was renamed for levy in the mid-20th century.the building was designated a new york city landmark in 1974 and added to the national register of historic places in 1980.it was

"(410777) 2009 fd is a carbonaceous sub-kilometer asteroid and binary system, classified as near-earth object and potentially hazardous asteroid of the apollo group, discovered on 24 february 2009 by astronomers of the spacewatch program at kitt peak national observatory near tucson, arizona, in the united states.until 2019, the asteroid's modelled orbit placed it at risk of a possible future collision with earth in 2185.with a palermo technical impact hazard scale rating of -0.44, it had the fifth highest impact threat of all known asteroids based on its estimated diameter, kinetic yield, impact probability, and time interval.observations to 2019 extended the observation arc by four years and detected a favourable yarkovsky effect, which ruled out impact in 2185.using observations from 16 november 2020, the asteroid was removed from the sentry risk table on 19 november 2020.because there were previous observations found in images taken by the spacewatch survey some 3 weeks prior, on 24 february 2009, the minor planet center assigned the discovery credit to spacewatch under the discovery assignment rules.2009 fd made a close pass to earth on 27 march 2009 at a distance of 0.004172 au (624,100 km; 387,800 mi) and another on 24 october 2010 at 0.0702 au.2009 fd was recovered at apparent magnitude 23 on 30 november 2013 by cerro paranal observatory, several months before the close approach of april 2014 when it passed 0.1 au from earth.it brightened to roughly apparent magnitude 19.3 around mid-march 2014.one radar doppler observation of 2009 fd was made in 2014.the october–november 2015 earth approach was studied by the goldstone deep space network.this gave it an estimated mass of around 2,800,000 tonnes.but work by amy mainzer using neowise data in 2014 showed that it could be as large as 472 metres with an albedo as low as 0.01.because 2009 fd (k09f00d) was only detected in two (w1+w2) of the four wavelengths the suspected neowise diameter is more of an upper limit.radar observations in 2015 showed it to be a binary asteroid.the primary is 120–180 meters in diameter and the secondary is 60–120 meters in diameter.as of 2016, the approach of 29 march 2185 had a 1 in 710 chance of impacting earth.the nominal 2185 earth approach distance was 0.009 au (1,300,000 km; 840,000 mi).orbit determination for 2190 is complicated by the 2185 close approach.the precise distance that it will pass from earth and the moon on 29 march 2185 will determine the 30 march 2190 distance.2009 fd should pass closer to the moon than earth on 29 march 2185.an impact by 2009 fd would cause severe devastation to a large region or tsunamis of significant size.in 2014 (with observations through 5 february 2014, creating an observation arc of 1807 days) the potential 2185 impact was ruled out.using the 2014 observations, the yarkovsky effect has become more significant than the position uncertainties.the yarkovsky effect has resulted in the 2185 virtual impactor returning.while 2009 fd was estimated to be 470 meters in diameter, it was rated −0.40 on the palermo scale, placing it higher on the sentry risk table than any other known object at the time.on 14 june 2019, alessio del vigna and colleagues published a new analysis, which incorporates astrometry taken in 2019.using both jpl's sentry as well as neodys's clomon-2 system, the new data allowed a 4-sigma detection of the yarkovsky effect at (+3.6±0.9)×10−3 au/myr.the 2019 observations extended the observation arc from six years to ten years.this ruled out the 2185 impact possibility, leaving the potential impact in 2190 as the only theoretically possible impact until 2250, at a very low probability of 1 in 100 million.","410777 2009 fd | orbitalperiod | 394470000 410777 2009 fd | periapsis | 882343000000 410777 2009 fd | discoverer | spacewatch","(410777) 2009 fd is a carbonaceous sub-kilometer asteroid and binary system, classified as near-earth object and potentially hazardous asteroid of the apollo group, discovered on 24 february 2009 by astronomers of the spacewatch program at kitt peak national observatory near tucson, arizona, in the united states.until 2019, the asteroid's modelled orbit placed it at risk of a possible future collision with earth in 2185.because there were previous observations found in images taken by the spacewatch survey some 3 weeks prior, on 24 february 2009, the minor planet center assigned the discovery credit to spacewatch under the discovery assignment rules."

diameter.it was discovered on 20 may 1999, by lincoln near-earth asteroid research (linear) at the lincoln laboratory's experimental test site in socorro, new mexico, united states.it is a mercury-crosser that comes extremely close to the sun at a perihelion of 0.2 au.its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.69 and an inclination of 39° with respect to the ecliptic.a first precovery was taken by 2mass at the fred lawrence whipple observatory in 1998, extending the body's observation arc by one year prior to its official discovery observation at socorro.as a potentially hazardous asteroid, it has an earth minimum orbital intersection distance of 0.0138 au (2,060,000 km) which corresponds to 5.4 lunar distances.on 25 may 2036, it will pass 0.0155 au (2,320,000 km) from earth.it was named from mohegan legend, after moshup, a giant who lived in the coastal areas of new england.the asteroid's companion is named squannit, after the wife of moshup and a medicine woman of the makiawisug (little people).the official naming citation was published by the minor planet center on 27 august 2019 (m.p.c.115894).the moon, named squannit and designated s/2001 (66391) 1, is approximately 360 metres in diameter, and orbits its primary in every 16 hours at a mean-distance of 2.6 kilometers.the presence of a companion was suggested by photometric observations made by pravec and šarounová and was confirmed by radar observations from arecibo observations and announced on 23 may 2001 (also see below).based on radar imaging, squannit's dimensions are estimated to be 595 × 450 × 343 meters.the observations were taken from may 21–23, 2001, by lance a. m. benner, steven j. ostro, jon d. giorgini, raymond f. jurgens, jean-luc margot and michael c. nolan.the collaborative asteroid lightcurve link adopts a diameter of 1.3 kilometers and derives an albedo 0.26 with an absolute magnitude of 16.5.the shapes of the two bodies and their dynamics are complex.with a dimension of approximately 1.42 × 1.36 × 1.18 kilometers for a simple triaxial ellipsoid, the asteroid has an oblate shape, which is dominated by an equatorial ridge at the body's potential-energy minimum.this bizarre property of the equatorial region means that it is close to breakup: raising a particle a meter above the surface would put it into orbit.as seen in the image at above right, the gravitational effects between the moon and the asteroid create a gigantic mountain extending in the equatorial plane around the entire asteroid.it was the first asteroid to be described as 'muffin-shaped', which is now understood to be a very common shape for asteroids in critical rotation, including 101955 bennu and 162173 ryugu.lightcurve analysis gave a rotation period of 2.7650 hours with a brightness variation of 0.12

published by john lane followed in 1933.it has 'nearly half-a-million words' and was described as 'probably the longest undivided novel in english'.it is the second of powys's wessex novels, along with wolf solent (1929), weymouth sands (1934) and maiden castle (1936).powys was an admirer of thomas hardy and these novels are set in somerset and dorset, parts of hardy's mythical wessex.the action occurs over roughly a year, and the first two chapters of a glastonbury romance take place in norfolk, where the late canon william crow's will is read, and the crow family learn that his secretary-valet john geard has inherited his wealth.also in norfolk, a romance begins between cousins, john and mary crow.however, after an important scene at the ancient monument of stonehenge, the rest of the action takes place in or near the somerset town of glastonbury, which is some ten miles north of the village of montacute.powys's father, the reverend charles francis powys (1843–1923), was parish priest of montacute from 1885 to 1918, and it was here that powys grew up.the grail legends associated with the town of glastonbury are of major importance in this novel, and welsh mythology has, for the first time, a significant role.the climax of volume 1 is geard's pageant, part of his plan to revive glastonbury as a place of religious pilgrimage.the pageant has three parts: 'arthurian scenes at the beginning', then a 'christmas 'passion play' ', followed by a final 'prehistoric portion'.however the pageant ends abruptly during the second part, when owen evans, who is enacting christ's death on the cross, collapses.in volume 2's final chapter, 'the flood', the sea invades the land, geard dies, and glastonbury becoming an island once again.the action begins in norfolk with the funeral canon william crow and the reading of his will, and where the romance between the cousins john and mary crow begins.the crow family members are shocked to learn that william' crow's secretary-valet, john geard, has inherited most of the deceased's wealth.john crow then sets off to walk to glastonbury, where he will rejoin mary.while crossing salisbury plain he is offered a ride in owen evans' car and the two men visit stonehenge.a central aspect of a glastonbury romance is the attempt by john geard, ex-minister, who becomes the mayor, to restore glastonbury to its medieval glory as a place of religious pilgrimage.on the other hand, the glastonbury industrialist philip crow, along with john and mary crow, and tom barter, all whom are from norfolk, view the myths and legends of the town with contempt.philip's vision is of a future with more mines and more factories.john crow, however, as he is penniless, takes on the task of organizing a pageant for geard.at the same time an alliance of anarchists, marxists, and jacobins try to turn glastonbury into a commune.like powys, owen evans is a devoted student of welsh mythology.he also resembles powys in that he has strong urges toward violence and sadism, and is often tempted by sadistic pornography.but evans is not the only character that resembles his creator, as both john geard and john crow reflect, in different ways, aspects of powys's personality.a glastonbury romance has several climactic moments, before the major final one.firstly there is sam dekker's decision, following his grail vision, to give-up of his adulterous affair with nell zoyland, and to lead a monk-like existence.","a glastonbury romance | mediatype | print a glastonbury romance | isbn number | 0-7156-3648-0","no related

"a glastonbury romance was written by john cowper powys (1873–1963) in rural upstate new york and first published by simon and schuster in new york city in march 1932.an english edition published by john lane followed in 1933.it has 'nearly half-a-million words' and was described as 'probably the longest undivided novel in english'.it is the second of powys's wessex novels, along with wolf solent (1929), weymouth sands (1934) and maiden castle (1936).powys was an admirer of thomas hardy and these novels are set in somerset and dorset, parts of hardy's mythical wessex.the action occurs over roughly a year, and the first two chapters of a glastonbury romance take place in norfolk, where the late canon william crow's will is read, and the crow family learn that his secretary-valet john geard has inherited his wealth.also in norfolk, a romance begins between cousins, john and mary crow.however, after an important scene at the ancient monument of stonehenge, the rest of the action takes place in or near the somerset town of glastonbury, which is some ten miles north of the village of montacute.powys's father, the reverend charles francis powys (1843–1923), was parish priest of montacute from 1885 to 1918, and it was here that powys grew up.the grail legends associated with the town of glastonbury are of major importance in this novel, and welsh mythology has, for the first time, a significant role.the climax of volume 1 is geard's pageant, part of his plan to revive glastonbury as a place of religious pilgrimage.the pageant has three parts: 'arthurian scenes at the beginning', then a 'christmas 'passion play' ', followed by a final 'prehistoric portion'.however the pageant ends abruptly during the second part, when owen evans, who is enacting christ's death on the cross, collapses.in volume 2's final chapter, 'the flood', the sea invades the land, geard dies, and glastonbury becoming an island once again.the action begins in norfolk with the funeral canon william crow and the reading of his will, and where the romance between the cousins john and mary crow begins.the crow family members are shocked to learn that william' crow's secretary-valet, john geard, has inherited most of the deceased's wealth.john crow then sets off to walk to glastonbury, where he will rejoin mary.while crossing salisbury plain he is offered a ride in owen evans' car and the two men visit stonehenge.a central aspect of a glastonbury romance is the attempt by john geard, ex-minister, who becomes the mayor, to restore glastonbury to its medieval glory as a place of religious pilgrimage.on the other hand, the glastonbury industrialist philip crow, along with john and mary crow, and tom barter, all whom are from norfolk, view the myths and legends of the town with contempt.philip's vision is of a future with more mines and more factories.john crow, however, as he is penniless, takes on the task of organizing a pageant for geard.at the same time an alliance of anarchists, marxists, and jacobins try to turn glastonbury into a commune.like powys, owen evans is a devoted student of welsh mythology.he also resembles powys in that he has strong urges toward violence and sadism, and is often tempted by sadistic pornography.but evans is not the only character that resembles his creator, as both john geard and john crow reflect, in different ways, aspects of powys's personality.a glastonbury romance has several climactic moments, before the major final one.firstly there is sam dekker's decision, following his grail vision, to give-up of his adulterous affair with nell zoyland, and to lead a monk-like existence.","a glastonbury romance | mediatype | hardcover a glastonbury romance | isbn number | 0-7156-3648-0","no related information" "helena

jewish governor.ribicoff's relatively poor parents valued education and insisted that all his earnings from part-time boyhood jobs go toward his future schooling.after high school, he worked for a year at a nearby zipper factory of the g. e. prentice company to earn additional funds for college.ribicoff enrolled at new york university in 1928, then transferred to the university of chicago after the prentice company made him the chicago office manager.while in chicago, ribicoff coped with school and work schedules and was permitted to enter the university's law school before finishing his undergraduate degree.still a student, he married ruth siegel on june 28, 1931; they had two children.ribicoff served as editor of the university of chicago law review in his third year and received an llb cum laude in 1933, being admitted to the connecticut bar the same year.after practicing law in the office of a hartford lawyer, ribicoff set up his practice, first in kensington and later in hartford.from 1941 to 1943 and again from 1945 to 1947 he was the judge of hartford police court.during his political career, ribicoff was a protégé of john moran bailey, the powerful chairman of the democratic party of connecticut.during that time, he served on the foreign affairs committee, a position usually reserved for members with more seniority, and was a mostly loyal supporter of the foreign and domestic policies of president harry s. truman's administration.generally liberal in his outlook, he surprised many by opposing a $32 million appropriation for the construction of a dam in enfield, connecticut, arguing that the money was better spent on military needs and foreign policy initiatives such as the marshall plan.in 1952 he made an unsuccessful bid for election to fill a vacancy in the united states senate, losing to prescott bush.as governor (1955–1961), ribicoff soon faced the challenge of rebuilding his state in the wake of devastating floods that occurred in the late summer and fall of 1955, and he successfully led bipartisan efforts to aid damaged areas.ribicoff then successfully argued for increased state spending on schools and welfare programs.he also supported an amendment to the state constitution that enhanced the governing powers of local municipalities.easily reelected in 1958, ribicoff had by now become active on the national political scene.a longtime friend of massachusetts senator john f. kennedy, ribicoff had nominated his fellow new englander for vice president at the 1956 democratic national convention and was one of the first public officials to endorse kennedy's presidential campaign.he reportedly declined the position of attorney general for fear that he might create needless controversy within the emerging civil rights movement because he was jewish, and he instead chose to be secretary of health, education, and welfare (hew).although he managed to secure a revision of the 1935 social security act that liberalized requirements for aid to dependent children, ribicoff was unable to gain approval for the administration's medicare and school aid bills.eventually, he tired of attempting to manage the department, whose very size made it, in his opinion, unmanageable.ribicoff reflected that he had sought out the position of hew secretary mainly out of concern for education and 'realized that the problems of

"bo 'bibbo' bibbowski is a fictional character appearing in american comic books published by dc comics.he is typically shown as a good friend and supportive advocate of superman.bibbo bibbowski first appeared in the adventures of superman #428 (may 1987) and was created by jerry ordway and marv wolfman.he is based on jerry ordway's real life friend, jo jo kaminski, described as a 'hard as nails softie'.when superman comes in looking for information, bibbo, thinking this is 'some clown in a superman suit', punches superman, damaging his hand.he gains respect for the man of steel.he would later refer to superman as his 'fav'rit' hero.during the eradicator saga, bibbo teams up with lobo and raof, a teleporter and a tribute to marvel's nightcrawler, to witness lobo kill superman.lobo gives bibbo a set of special goggles that will record the battle.all three, however, get drunk on okarran liquor and thus suffer loss of all memory of the battle, which superman won by a ruse engineered by the eradicator artifact.additionally, bibbo wore the goggles backwards, and thus the entire recording was of his reactions.as a result, the aliens who retained lobo to kill superman have no proof that there even was a battle.bibbo becomes a more significant part of the comic when he finds a winning lottery ticket dropped by gangbuster and uses the money to buy the ace o' clubs bar and to help those living in the slum.bibbo attempts to assist superman when superman becomes involved in a drawn-out fight against the murderous doomsday.bibbo works with professor hamilton on a plan to blast doomsday with a large laser.they score a direct hit, but the monster is not affected.when doomsday and superman ultimately kill each other, bibbo is on the scene and helps hamilton use a device to try to perform cpr on superman, despite the risk of the device killing bibbo himself.the plan fails and bibbo is injured.hamilton takes over the cpr but also fails.shortly afterward, bibbo encounters a young man who, his family rendered homeless by doomsday's rampage, is blatantly selling 'death of superman' commemorative souvenirs during a public commemoration honoring the man of steel.at first outraged at the man's crassness, bibbo feels some sympathy for his losses and buys his entire inventory to get him off the street, then offers him a job at the ace o' clubs.while superman is gone, bibbo takes to putting on a 'disguise' of sorts and helping out on the streets.around this time he saves a man from suicide.this is mostly told through tall tales concerning various super-villains.bibbo briefly takes care of a small white dog named krypto whom he had saved from drowning, not to be confused with the kryptonian dog of the same name.the name was supposed to be 'krypton', but the engraver bibbo hired to make a name tag made an intentional mistake, trying to extort more money from bibbo (the price accorded was for six letters).bibbo took the tag as it was.a poster seen by the hero aztek indicates that at one point, bibbo fought the hero wildcat during a charity boxing event.later in the series, the ace o' clubs bar is the site of a battle between the life-force devouring parasite and aztek.bibbo and his friends purposely ignore the fight, playing cards instead and trusting others to handle the villain.in the power of shazam!, ordway introduces professor bibbowski, bibbo's pacifist scientist brother.bibbo reappears in superman #679, shown as one of the champions of metropolis that the villainous atlas defeated.","bibbo bibbowski | creator | jerry ordway jerry ordway | nationality | americans","bibbo bibbowski first appeared in the adventures of superman #428 (may 1987) and was created by jerry ordway and marv wolfman.in the power of shazam!, ordway introduces professor bibbowski, bibbo's pacifist scientist brother."

fortified town').their territory extended across the fertile lowland of what is now salford and stretford.following the roman conquest of britain in the 1st century, general agricola ordered the construction of a fort named mamucium in the year 79 to ensure that roman interests in deva victrix (chester) and eboracum (york) were protected from the brigantes.","manchester | ispartof | greater manchester alfred garth jones | birthplace | england alfred garth jones | birthplace | manchester manchester | leadername | labour party uk","manchester ( listen) is a city and metropolitan borough in the county of greater manchester, england.the two cities and the surrounding towns form one of the united kingdom's most populous conurbations, the greater manchester built-up area, which has a population of 2.87 million.the history of manchester began with the civilian settlement associated with the roman fort (castra) of mamucium or mancunium, established in about ad 79 on a sandstone bluff near the confluence of the rivers medlock and irwell.historically part of lancashire, areas of cheshire south of the river mersey were incorporated into manchester in the 20th century, including wythenshawe in 1931.throughout the middle ages manchester remained a manorial township, but began to expand 'at an astonishing rate' around the turn of the 19th century.manchester's unplanned urbanisation was brought on by a boom in textile manufacture during the industrial revolution, and resulted in it becoming the world's first industrialised city.manchester achieved city status in 1853.the manchester ship canal opened in 1894, creating the port of manchester and linking the city to the irish sea, 36 miles (58 km) to the west.following considerable redevelopment, manchester was the host city for the 2002 commonwealth games.manchester liverpool road railway station was the world's first inter-city passenger railway station.at the university of manchester, ernest rutherford first split the atom in 1917, frederic c. williams, tom kilburn and geoff tootill developed the world's first stored-program computer in 1948, and andre geim and konstantin novoselov first isolated graphene in 2004.this urban area is cutoff by the m60 aka the manchester outer ring road which runs in a circular around the city and these areas."

"1101 clematis is an alauda asteroid from the outermost regions of the asteroid belt, approximately 37 kilometers in diameter.it was discovered on 22 september 1928, by german astronomer karl reinmuth at the heidelberg-königstuhl state observatory in southwest germany, and assigned the provisional designation 1928 sj.it was named for the flowering plant clematis.the presumably carbonaceous asteroid has a relatively long rotation period of 34.3 hours.: 23  according to a different study, this object is also the namesake of the clematis family, a small family of 5–16 asteroids hence they may have arisen from the same collisional event.all members have a relatively high orbital inclination.it orbits the sun in the outermost asteroid belt at a distance of 3.0–3.5 au once every 5 years and 10 months (2,120 days;

also known by other names) was a civil war in the united states.it was fought between the union ('the north') and the confederacy ('the south'), the latter formed by states that had seceded.the central cause of the war was the dispute over whether slavery would be permitted to expand into the western territories, leading to more slave states, or be prevented from doing so, which was widely believed would place slavery on a course of ultimate extinction.decades of political controversy over slavery were brought to a head by the victory in the 1860 u.s. presidential election of abraham lincoln, who opposed slavery's expansion into the western territories.an initial seven southern slave states responded to lincoln's victory by seceding from the united states and, in february 1861, forming the confederacy.the confederacy seized u.s. forts and other federal assets within their borders.led by confederate president jefferson davis, the confederacy asserted control over about a third of the u.s. population in eleven of the 34 u.s. states that then existed.four years of intense combat, mostly in the south, ensued.during 1861–1862 in the war's western theater, the union made significant permanent gains—though in the war's eastern theater the conflict was inconclusive.the abolition of slavery became a union war goal on january 1, 1863, when lincoln issued the emancipation proclamation, which declared all slaves in states in rebellion to be free, applying to more than 3.5 million of the 4 million enslaved people in the country.to the west, the union destroyed the confederacy's river navy by the summer of 1862, then much of its western armies, and seized new orleans.the successful 1863 union siege of vicksburg split the confederacy in two at the mississippi river.in 1863, confederate general robert e. lee's incursion north ended at the battle of gettysburg.western successes led to general ulysses s. grant's command of all union armies in 1864.inflicting an ever-tightening naval blockade of confederate ports, the union marshaled resources and manpower to attack the confederacy from all directions.this led to the fall of atlanta in 1864 to union general william tecumseh sherman, followed by his march to the sea.the last significant battles raged around the ten-month siege of petersburg, gateway to the confederate capital of richmond.the confederates abandoned richmond, and on april 9, 1865, lee surrendered to grant following the battle of appomattox court house, setting in motion the end of the war.a wave of confederate surrenders followed.on april 14, just five days after lee's surrender, lincoln was assassinated.as a practical matter, the war ended with the may 26 surrender of the department of the trans-mississippi but the conclusion of the american civil war lacks a clear and precise historical end date.confederate ground forces continued surrendering past the may 26 surrender date until june 23.by the end of the war, much of the south's infrastructure was destroyed, especially its railroads.the confederacy collapsed, slavery was abolished, and four million enslaved black people were freed.the war-torn nation then entered the reconstruction era in an attempt to rebuild the country, bring the former confederate states back into the united states, and grant civil rights to freed slaves.the civil war is one of the most extensively studied and written about episodes in u.s. history.it remains the subject of cultural and historiographical debate.of particular interest is the persisting myth of the lost cause of the confederacy.the american civil war was among the first wars to use industrial warfare.","american civil war | commander | abraham lincoln alfred moore scales | battles | battle of fredericksburg battle of fredericksburg | ispartofmilitaryconflict | american civil war","the abolition of slavery became a union war goal on january 1, 1863, when lincoln issued the emancipation proclamation, which declared all slaves in states in rebellion to be free, applying to more than 3.5 million of the 4 million enslaved people in the country.the confederates abandoned richmond, and on april 9, 1865, lee surrendered to grant following the battle of appomattox court house, setting in motion the end of the war."

a cabin fire during a launch rehearsal test at cape kennedy air force station launch complex 34 on january 27 killed all three crew members—command pilot gus grissom, senior pilot ed white, and pilot roger b. chaffee—and destroyed the command module (cm).the name apollo 1, chosen by the crew, was made official by nasa in their honor after the fire.immediately after the fire, nasa convened an accident review board to determine the cause of the fire, and both chambers of the united states congress conducted their own committee inquiries to oversee nasa's investigation.the ignition source of the fire was determined to be electrical, and the fire spread rapidly due to combustible nylon material and the high-pressure pure oxygen cabin atmosphere.rescue was prevented by the plug door hatch, which could not be opened against the internal pressure of the cabin.because the rocket was unfueled, the test had not been considered hazardous, and emergency preparedness for it was poor.during the congressional investigation, senator walter mondale publicly revealed a nasa internal document citing problems with prime apollo contractor north american aviation, which became known as the phillips report.this disclosure embarrassed nasa administrator james e. webb, who was unaware of the document's existence, and attracted controversy to the apollo program.despite congressional displeasure at nasa's lack of openness, both congressional committees ruled that the issues raised in the report had no bearing on the accident.crewed apollo flights were suspended for twenty months while the command module's hazards were addressed.however, the development and uncrewed testing of the lunar module (lm) and saturn v rocket continued.the saturn ib launch vehicle for apollo 1, sa-204, was used for the first lm test flight, apollo 5.the first successful crewed apollo mission was flown by apollo 1's backup crew on apollo 7 in october 1968.as-204 was to test launch operations, ground tracking and control facilities and the performance of the apollo-saturn launch assembly and would have lasted up to two weeks, depending on how the spacecraft performed.the csm for this flight, number 012 built by north american aviation (naa), was a block i version designed before the lunar orbit rendezvous landing strategy was chosen;

"the battle of cold harbor was fought during the american civil war near mechanicsville, virginia, from may 31 to june 12, 1864, with the most significant fighting occurring on june 3.it was one of the final battles of union lt. gen. ulysses s. grant's overland campaign, and is remembered as one of american history's bloodiest, most lopsided battles.thousands of union soldiers were killed or wounded in a hopeless frontal assault against the fortified positions of confederate gen. robert e. lee's army.on may 31, as grant's army once again swung around the right flank of lee's army, union cavalry seized the crossroads of old cold harbor, about 10 miles northeast of the confederate capital of richmond, virginia, holding it against confederate attacks until the union infantry arrived.both grant and lee, whose armies had suffered enormous casualties in the overland campaign, received reinforcements.on the evening of june 1, the union vi corps and xviii corps arrived and assaulted the confederate works to the west of the crossroads with some success.on june 2, the remainder of both armies arrived and the confederates built an elaborate series of fortifications 7 miles long.at dawn on june 3, three union corps attacked the confederate works on the southern end of the line and were easily repulsed with heavy casualties.attempts to assault the northern end of the line and to resume the assaults on the southern were unsuccessful.grant said of the battle in his personal memoirs, 'i have always regretted that the last assault at cold harbor was ever made.... no advantage whatever was gained to compensate for the heavy loss we sustained.'the armies confronted each other on these lines until the night of june 12, when grant again advanced by his left flank, marching to the james river.in the final stage, lee entrenched his army within besieged petersburg before finally retreating westward across virginia.by late may 1864, only two of these continued to advance: maj. gen. william t. sherman's atlanta campaign and the overland campaign, in which grant accompanied and directly supervised the army of the potomac and its commander, maj. gen. george g. meade.grant's campaign objective was not the confederate capital of richmond, but the destruction of lee's army.president abraham lincoln had long advocated this strategy for his generals, recognizing that the city would certainly fall after the loss of its principal defensive army.grant ordered meade, 'wherever lee goes, there you will go also.'although he hoped for a quick, decisive battle, grant was prepared to fight a war of attrition.both union and confederate casualties could be high, but the union had greater resources to replace lost soldiers and equipment.on may 5, after grant's army crossed the rapidan river and entered the wilderness of spotsylvania, it was attacked by lee's army of northern virginia.although lee was outnumbered, about 60,000 to 100,000, his men fought fiercely and the dense foliage provided a terrain advantage.after two days of fighting and almost 29,000 casualties, the results were inconclusive and neither army was able to obtain an advantage.lee had stopped grant, but had not turned him back; grant had not destroyed lee's army.under similar circumstances, previous union commanders had chosen to withdraw behind the rappahannock, but grant instead ordered meade to move around lee's right flank and seize the important crossroads at spotsylvania court house to the southeast, hoping that by interposing his army between lee and richmond, he could lure the confederates into another battle on a more favorable field.elements of lee's army beat the union army to the critical crossroads of spotsylvania court house and began entrenching, a tactic that became increasingly essential for the outnumbered defenders.","battle of cold harbor | ispartofmilitaryconflict | american civil war aaron s daggett | battles | battle of cold harbor american civil war | commander | robert e lee","the battle of cold harbor was fought during the american civil war near mechanicsville, virginia, from may 31 to june 12, 1864, with the most significant fighting occurring on june 3.it was one of the final battles of union lt. gen. ulysses s. grant's overland campaign, and is remembered as one of american history's bloodiest, most lopsided battles.in the final stage, lee entrenched his army within besieged petersburg before finally retreating westward across virginia.although he hoped for a quick, decisive battle, grant was prepared to fight a war of attrition." "albany ( awl-bə-nee) is a city in the u.s. state of georgia.located on the flint river, it is the seat of dougherty county, and is the sole incorporated city in that county.located in southwest georgia, it is the principal city of the albany, georgia metropolitan area.the population was 77,434 at the 2010 u.s. census, making it the eighth-largest city in the state.it became prominent in the nineteenth century as a shipping and market center, first served by riverboats.scheduled steamboats connected albany with the busy port of apalachicola, florida.they were replaced by railroads.seven lines met in albany, and it was a center of trade in the southeast.it is part of the black belt, the extensive area in the deep south of cotton plantations.from the mid-20th century, it received military investment during world war ii and after, that helped develop the region.albany and this area were prominent during the civil rights era, particularly during the early 1960s as activists worked to regain voting and other civil rights.railroad restructuring and reduction in the military here caused job losses, but the city has developed new businesses.they used it for making arrowheads and other tools.in 1830 congress passed the indian removal act, and the united states made treaties to extinguish creek and other native american land claims in the southeast.the us army forcibly removed most of the native peoples to indian territory, lands west of the mississippi river.tift and his colleagues named the new town albany after the capital of new york; noting that new york's albany was a commercial center located at the headwaters of the hudson river, they hoped that their town near the headwaters of the flint would prove to be just as successful.it proved to be nowhere near as prosperous.alexander shotwell laid out the town in 1836, and it was incorporated as a city by an act of the general assembly of georgia on december 27, 1838.tift was the city's leading entrepreneur for decades.an ardent booster, he promoted education, business, and railroad construction.during the civil war he provided naval supplies and helped build two ships.he opposed radical reconstruction inside the state and in congress, and was scornful of the yankee carpetbaggers who came in.historian john fair concludes that tift became 'more southern than many natives.'his pro-slavery attitudes before the war and his support for segregation afterward made him compatible with georgia's white elite.this area was developed for cotton cultivation by planters, who used numerous enslaved african americans to clear lands and process the cotton.as a result of the planters' acquisition of slave workers, by 1840 dougherty county's majority population was black, composed overwhelmingly of slaves.the market center for cotton plantations, albany was in a prime location for shipping cotton to other markets by steamboats.in 1858, tift hired horace king, a former slave and bridge builder, to construct a toll bridge over the river.king's bridge toll house still stands.already important as a shipping port, albany later became an important railroad hub in southwestern georgia.seven lines were constructed to the town.an exhibit on trains is located at the thronateeska heritage center in the former railroad station.in the early years following the war, styles, like tift, took great exception to the radical reconstruction program then in force, and advocated for a more moderate response based on his interpretation of georgia's rights under the constitution.styles backed 'constitutional reconstruction' advanced by benjamin h. hill and sought support for the idea from the national democratic party.while on a trip to atlanta in may 1868, to meet with democratic party leaders, styles took measure of the contemporary atlanta newspapers, and found them lacking.","albany georgia | ispartof | dougherty county georgia albany georgia | country | united states united states | ethnicgroup | african americans","albany ( awl-bə-nee) is a city in the u.s. state of georgia.located in southwest georgia, it is the principal city of the albany, georgia metropolitan area.alexander shotwell laid out the town in 1836, and it was incorporated as a city by an act of the general assembly of georgia on december 27, 1838.tift was the city's leading entrepreneur for decades.his pro-slavery attitudes before the war and his support for segregation afterward made him compatible with georgia's white elite.this area was developed for cotton cultivation by planters, who used numerous enslaved african americans to clear lands and process the cotton.already important as a shipping port, albany later became an important railroad hub in southwestern georgia.in the early years following the war, styles, like tift, took great exception to the radical reconstruction program then in force, and advocated for a more moderate response based on his interpretation of georgia's rights under the constitution." "buzz aldrin (; born edwin eugene aldrin jr.; january 20, 1930) is an american former astronaut, engineer and fighter pilot.he made three spacewalks as pilot of the 1966 gemini 12 mission.he was the lunar module eagle pilot on the 1969 apollo 11 mission and became the second person to walk on the moon after mission commander neil armstrong.born in glen ridge, new jersey, aldrin graduated third in the class of 1951 from the united states military academy at west point with a degree in mechanical engineering.he was commissioned into the united states air force and served as a jet fighter pilot during the korean war.he flew 66 combat missions and shot down two mig-15 aircraft.after earning a doctor of science degree in astronautics from the massachusetts institute of technology (mit), aldrin was selected as a member of nasa's astronaut group 3, making him the first astronaut with a doctoral degree.his doctoral thesis, line-of-sight guidance techniques for manned orbital rendezvous, earned him the nickname 'dr. rendezvous' from fellow astronauts.his first space flight was in 1966 on gemini 12, during which he spent over five hours on extravehicular activity.three years later, aldrin set foot on the moon at 03:15:16 on july 21, 1969 (utc), nineteen minutes after armstrong first touched the surface, while command module pilot michael collins remained in lunar orbit.a presbyterian elder, aldrin became the first person to hold a religious ceremony on the moon when he privately took communion.apollo 11 effectively proved u.s. victory in the space race by fulfilling a national goal proposed in 1961 by president john f. kennedy 'of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to the earth' before the end of the decade.after leaving nasa in 1971, aldrin became commandant of the u.s. air force test pilot school.he retired from the air force in 1972, after 21 years of service.his autobiographies return to earth (1973) and magnificent desolation (2009) recount his struggles with clinical depression and alcoholism in the years after leaving nasa.aldrin continues to advocate for space exploration, particularly a human mission to mars, and developed the aldrin cycler, a special spacecraft trajectory that makes travel to mars more efficient in terms of time and propellant.he has been accorded numerous honors, including the presidential medal of freedom in 1969.his parents, edwin eugene aldrin sr. and marion aldrin (née moon), lived in neighboring montclair.his father was an army aviator during world war i and the assistant commandant of the army's test pilot school at mccook field, ohio, from 1919 to 1922, but left the army in 1928 and became an executive at standard oil.aldrin had two sisters: madeleine, who was four years older, and fay ann, who was a year and a half older.his nickname, which became his legal first name in 1988, arose as a result of fay's mispronouncing 'brother' as 'buzzer', which was then shortened to 'buzz'.he was a boy scout, achieving the rank of tenderfoot scout.aldrin did well in school, maintaining an a average.he played football and was the starting center for montclair high school's undefeated 1946 state champion team.his father wanted him to go to the united states naval academy in annapolis, maryland and enrolled him at nearby severn school, a preparatory school for annapolis and even secured him a naval academy appointment from albert w. hawkes, one of the united states senators from new jersey.aldrin attended severn school in 1946, but had other ideas about his future career.he suffered from seasickness and considered ships a distraction from flying airplanes.","buzz aldrin | birthplace | glen ridge new jersey buzz aldrin | nationality | united states united states | leadername | joe biden glen ridge new jersey | ispartof | essex county new jersey","born in glen ridge, new jersey, aldrin graduated third in the class of 1951 from the united states military academy at west point with a degree in mechanical engineering.his father wanted him to go to the united states naval academy in annapolis, maryland and enrolled him at nearby severn school, a preparatory school for annapolis and even secured him a naval academy appointment from albert w. hawkes, one of the united states senators from new jersey." "plants are predominantly photosynthetic eukaryotes, forming the kingdom plantae.many are multicellular.historically, the plant kingdom encompassed all living things that were not animals, and included algae and fungi.all current definitions exclude the fungi and some of the algae.by one definition, plants form the clade viridiplantae (latin for 'green plants') which consists of the green algae and the embryophytes or land plants.the latter include hornworts, liverworts, mosses, lycophytes, ferns, conifers and other gymnosperms, and flowering plants.a definition based on genomes includes the viridiplantae, along with the red algae and the glaucophytes, in the clade archaeplastida.green plants obtain most of their energy from sunlight, using chloroplasts derived from endosymbiosis with cyanobacteria.chloroplasts perform photosynthesis using the pigment chlorophyll, which gives them their green colour.some plants are parasitic and have lost the ability to produce normal amounts of chlorophyll or to photosynthesize.plants are characterized by sexual reproduction and alternation of generations, but asexual reproduction is also common.there are about 380,000 known species of plants, of which the majority, some 260,000, produce seeds.green plants provide a substantial proportion of the world's molecular oxygen and are the basis of most of earth's ecosystems.grain, fruit, and vegetables are basic human foods and have been domesticated for millennia.plants have many cultural and other uses, such as ornaments, building materials, writing materials, and, in great variety, they have been the source of medicines.the scientific study of plants is known as botany, a branch of biology.this classification dates from aristotle (384–322 bc), who distinguished different levels of beings in his biology, based on whether living things have locomotion or had sensory organs.theophrastus, aristotle's student, continued his work in plant taxonomy and classification.much later, linnaeus (1707–1778) created the basis of the modern system of scientific classification, but retained the animal and plant kingdoms.from least to most inclusive, these four groupings are: == evolution == === diversity === there are about 382,000 accepted species of plants, of which the great majority, some 293,000, produce seeds.the table below shows some species count estimates of different green plant (viridiplantae) divisions.about 85–90% of all plants are flowering plants.several projects are currently attempting to collect records on all plant species in online databases, e.g.the world flora online.plants range in scale from single cells, such as many algae including desmids (from 10 micrometres across) and picozoans (less than 3 micrometres across), to trees such as the conifer sequoia sempervirens (up to 380 feet (120 m) tall ) and the angiosperm eucalyptus regnans (up to 325 feet (99 m) tall ).the naming of plants is governed by the international code of nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants and the international code of nomenclature for cultivated plants.an algal scum formed on the land 1,200 million years ago, but it was not until the ordovician, around 450 million years ago, that the first land plants appeared, with a level of organisation like that of bryophytes.however, evidence from carbon isotope ratios in precambrian rocks suggests that complex plants developed over 1000 mya.primitive land plants began to diversify in the late silurian, around 420 million years ago.bryophytes, club mosses, ferns then appear in the fossil record.early plant anatomy is preserved in cellular detail in an early devonian fossil assemblage from the rhynie chert.these early plants were preserved by being petrified in chert formed in silica-rich volcanic hot springs.by the end of the devonian, most of the basic features of plants today were present, including roots, leaves and secondary wood in trees such as archaeopteris.","poland | language | polish language adam koc | nationality | poland poland | ethnicgroup | kashubians","no related information" "a.c. cesena, commonly referred to as cesena

two consecutive promotions led the team back to serie c2.the club was promoted to serie c1 in 1997 and was acquired by aldo spinelli two years later.under the new property, livorno returned to serie b in 2001.livorno was promoted to serie a after finishing third in the serie b 2003–04, one of six clubs to be promoted that season.it had been 55 years since livorno's last season in the top flight, and as a result of this, most were predicting an instant return to serie b for the club.the first match in the major league was attended by italian president carlo azeglio ciampi, a livorno citizen and team supporter in his childhood.there were spells of struggle during the season, but there were many more good performances shown, and livorno finished a surprise and creditable ninth place in the league for the serie a 2004–05, also thanks to goals by striker cristiano lucarelli, who won the serie a top scorer award that season, outscoring even the likes of andriy shevchenko and adriano.the serie a 2005–06 saw livorno in sixth place after the first half of the season the team, being involved for qualification to the next uefa cup.shortly after, roberto donadoni announced his resignation after having been criticized by club's chairman aldo spinelli.donadoni was replaced by veteran coach carlo mazzone, who was only able to save a uefa cup place due to the expulsion of three teams from europe in the calciopoli scandal.mazzone then saw his team suffer a run of seven straight defeats.in may 2006, daniele arrigoni was appointed the new coach for the next season.in the serie a 2006–07 season, livorno took part in the uefa cup for the first time.the tuscan side was drawn to face the austrian team sv pasching in the first round, beating them comfortably 3–0 on aggregate.they thus qualified for the group stages being drawn in group a, along with rangers, auxerre, fk partizan, and maccabi haifa.","as livorno calcio | manager | christian panucci christian panucci | club | genoa cfc christian panucci | club | real madrid cf","no related information" "angola is a city in pleasant township, steuben county, indiana, united states.the population was 8,612 at the 2010 census.the city is the county seat of steuben county.angola was founded by thomas gale and cornelius gilmore on june 28, 1838, and is home to trine university.the town is served by i-69 and the indiana toll road (i-80 and i-90).the roads are known to the citizens of angola as north and south wayne street and west and east maumee street.according to the 2010 census, angola has a total area of 6.387 square miles (16.54 km2), of which 6.34 square miles (16.42 km2) (or 99.26%) is land and 0.047 square miles (0.12 km2) (or 0.74%) is water.average july temperatures are a maximum of 82.0 °f (27.8 °c) and a minimum of 60.4 °f (15.8 °c).there is an average of 7.5 days with highs of 90 °f (32 °c) or higher.there is an average of 28.1 days with highs of 32 °f (0 °c) or lower and an average of 2.3 days with lows of 0 °f (−18 °c) or lower.the record high temperature was 106 °f (41 °c) on july 13, 1936.the record low temperature was −27 °f (−33 °c) on january 4, 1981.the average annual precipitation is 37.27 inches (947 mm).there is an average of 119.4 days with measurable precipitation.the wettest year was 1950, with 52.48 inches (1,333 mm) and the driest was 1971, with 24.07 inches (611 mm).the most precipitation in one month was 12.23 inches (311 mm) in may 1943.the most precipitation in a 24-hour period was 5.00 inches (127 mm) on july 9, 1951.the average annual snowfall is 34.7 inches (880 mm).there are an average of 22.0 days with measurable snowfall.the snowiest season was 1981–82 with 74.9 inches (1,900 mm).the most snowfall in one month was 31.5 inches (800 mm) in january 1999, including the record 24-hour snowfall of 14.3 inches (360 mm) on january 3, 1999.the population density was 1,358.4 inhabitants per square mile (524.5/km2).there were 3,499 housing units at an average density of 551.9 per square mile (213.1/km2).the racial makeup of the city was 93.6% white, 1.4% african american, 0.3% native american, 0.8% asian, 0.1% pacific islander, 2.1% from other races, and 1.7% from two or more races.hispanic or latino of any race were 6.3% of the population.there were 3,111 households, of which 32.0% had children under the age of 18 living with them, 38.7% were married couples living together, 14.3% had a female householder with no husband present, 5.4% had a male householder with no wife present, and 41.7% were non-families.33.1% of all households were made up of individuals, and 12.2% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older.the average household size was 2.35 and the average family size was 2.99.the median age in the city was 30.3 years.22.1% of residents were under the age of 18;

"football club karpaty lviv (ukrainian: футбольний клуб 'карпати' львів [kɐrˈpɑtɪ ˈlʲwiu̯]) is a ukrainian professional football club based in lviv.in 1961 silmash lviv won the championship of lviv oblast but lost its promotional play-off against naftovyk drohobych to qualify for the soviet class b championship.in 1962 silmash lviv won the championship and cup of the lviv oblast (see lviv oblast football federation) and won the promotional play-offs against naftovyk, obtaining the rights to participate in the soviet class b championship (soviet first league).however, in 1963 the football federation of ussr conducted another reorganization in football national tournaments creating the second group of class a and class b became the third tier where a berth was reserved for a team from lviv.at that time the best city team was ska lvov, players of which did not stay there for long, leaving it at the end of their military service, while the best would be drafted to cska moscow.in light of that the city administration decided to create a civilian team, independent from the soviet military.in december 1962, in the building of regional council of trade unions (at prospekt shevchenka), the head of the council and the regional football federation, hlib klymov, invited coaches of silmash – yuri zubach (former player of ukraina lwów) and vasyl solomonko, as well as the director of the city plant 'lvivsilmash' ivan kalynychenko to discuss a new name for the club.the name silmash was recognized as inadequate for participation on such a level.among the proposed names were spartak, dynamo, halychyna, while at the end they agreed upon the regional toponym karpaty (carpathians).in the soviet times all sport teams were 'tied' to certain industrial unions or sport societies, therefore karpaty joined the republican sport society of trade unions 'avanhard', while the lviv television production plant 'elektron' became its sponsor.out of 'silmash' only two joined karpaty: ihor kulchytskyi and josef fales.karpaty also adopted the same jersey colors of silmash.also the club was reinforced with several players from ska lvov and transfers.the club played its first game on 14 april 1964 against zenit izhevsk at the dynamo stadium (today – the location of the building of the regional tax administration) winning it 1–0.the goal was scored by the club's captain oleksandr filiayev.the first official game was against lokomotiv gomel on 23 april 1963, which karpaty won 1–0 (goal scored by anatoliy kroshchenko).karpaty debuted in group b in 1963 and remained there for four seasons, until in 1968 they were promoted to soviet first league.the road to the cup was no less exciting as the final itself.on the way there the lions were challenged by such soviet heavy-weights as ararat yerevan and chornomorets odesa.the quarterfinal round matched them with trud voronezh that in the prior round had eliminated spartak moscow.after a narrow victory over voronezh, karpaty faced mykolaiv's shipbuilders.the game was perceived by the lvivians as the chance to avenge the previous year's loss to the mykolaivans, which cost them a ticket to the soviet premiership.a score of 2–0 was enough to secure a trip to moscow.in the final, karpaty faced the red army team from rostov-on-don at the lenin stadium.the rostov army-men were one of the best soviet clubs in the mid-1960s and for that game they were considered as the favorites being the representatives of the soviet top league.before the start of the game karpaty's captain ihor kulchytskyi shook hands in the traditional manner with every match official, except the assistant referee, eugen härms.","fc karpaty lviv | manager | oleh luzhny aleksandre guruli | club | fc samtredia fc samtredia |

from harris county, georgia.these settlers, led by judge john j. harper, intended to build a town that would be the religious and educational center for the area.auburn was incorporated on february 2, 1839, in what was then macon county, covering an area of 2 square miles (5.2 km2).by that time, methodist and baptist churches had been established, and a school had been built and had come into operation.in the mid-1840s, separate academies for boys and girls were established in addition to the primary school.this concentration of educational institutions led to a rapid influx of families from the planter class into auburn in the 1840s and 1850s.by 1858, of the roughly 1,000 free residents of auburn, some 500 were students.in 1856, the state legislature chartered a methodist college, the east alabama male college in auburn.this college, now auburn university, opened its doors in 1859, offering a classical and liberal education.with the advent of the civil war in 1861, auburn

"auburn is a city in king county, washington, united states (with a small portion crossing into neighboring pierce county).the population was 87,256 at the 2020 census.auburn is a suburb in the seattle metropolitan area, and is currently ranked as the 14th largest city in the state of washington.auburn is bordered by the cities of federal way, pacific, and algona to the west, sumner to the south, kent to the north, and unincorporated king county to the east.the muckleshoot indian reservation lies to the south and southeast.several settler families arrived in the 1860s, including levi ballard, who set up a homestead between the green and white rivers.ballard filed for a plat to establish a town in february 1886, naming it slaughter for an officer slain during the indian wars in 1855.slaughter was incorporated on june 13, 1891, but its name was changed two years later to auburn on february 21, 1893, by an action of the state legislature.newer residents had disliked the name and its connection to the word 'slaughter', especially after the town's hotel was named the slaughter house.the name auburn was chosen in honor of auburn, new york, for the area's shared reliance on hops farming.the white and green rivers have been a major part of the history and culture of auburn since the area was settled with multiple locations in the city being named after either of the two rivers.frequent flooding from the rivers caused numerous problems for the people living in the community with one outcome being the creation of mountain view cemetery over on one of the hills overlooking the valley.it was not until the completion of the mud mountain dam and the howard a. hanson dam, along the white river and green river respectively, that the flooding would cease and allow the city to grow without the aforementioned hurdle impeding the growth.in 1917 the city, in response to the growing of the japanese community, donated some of the land in pioneer cemetery to the white river buddhist church.a little over ten years later, rev.giryo takemura, minister of the church at the time, and his future son-in-law, chiyokichi natsuhara, raised money to replace the old wooden sticks and columns that had been in use as gravestones at the cemetery with more durable concrete markers.the interwar period saw several japanese-american baseball teams from the area compete in the courier league with the white river all-stars enjoying particularly large success winning four of the july 4th tournaments.in 1930 a japanese bath house was constructed outside of neely mansion by the then current tenants.the onset of the second world war saw the japanese-american community of auburn become seen with largely unwarranted distrust by many of the white residents of auburn.this, combined with a larger countrywide japanese focused xenophobia, led to the city's japanese-american population being relocated to internment camps.after the war, of about 300 japanese families living in auburn only around twenty five returned.in 2008, auburn annexed the west hill and lea hill neighborhoods of unincorporated king county, adding 15,000 residents and expanding its land area by 26 percent.historically, the stuck river ran through the settlement of stuck, which is now a small pocket of unincorporated king county within southern auburn.in 1906, the flow of the white river was diverted into the stuck's channel near today's game farm park.references to the stuck river still appear in some property legal descriptions and place names, e.g.stuck river drive, within auburn, but today it is essentially indistinguishable from the southern white river.","auburn washington | ispartof | washington state washington state | capital | olympia washington auburn washington | country | united states","auburn is a city in king county, washington, united states (with a small portion crossing into neighboring pierce county).auburn is a suburb in the seattle metropolitan area, and is currently ranked as the 14th largest city in the state of washington."

"the united states of america (u.s.a. or usa), commonly known as the united states (u.s. or us) or america, is a country primarily located in north america.it consists of 50 states, a federal district, five major unincorporated territories, nine minor outlying islands, and 326 indian reservations.the united states is the world's third-largest country by both land and total area.it shares land borders with canada to its north and with mexico to its south and has maritime borders with the bahamas, cuba, russia, and other nations.with a population of over 333 million, it is the most populous country in the americas and the third most populous in the world.the national capital of the united states is washington, d.c., and its most populous city and principal financial center is new york city.indigenous peoples have inhabited the americas for thousands of years.beginning in 1607, british colonization led to the establishment of the thirteen colonies in what is now the eastern united states.they quarreled with the british crown over taxation and political representation, leading to the american revolution and proceeding revolutionary war.the united states declared independence on july 4, 1776, becoming the first nation-state founded on enlightenment principles of unalienable natural rights, consent of the governed, and liberal democracy.during the nineteenth century, the united states political philosophy was influenced by the concept of manifest destiny, as the country expanded across the continent in a number of wars, land purchases, and treaties, eventually reaching the pacific ocean by the middle of the century.sectional division surrounding slavery in the southern united states led to the secession of the confederate states of america, which fought the remaining states of the union during the american civil war (1861–1865).with the union's victory and preservation, slavery was abolished nationally by the thirteenth amendment.by 1900, the united states had established itself as a world power, becoming the world's largest economy.after japan's attack on pearl harbor in 1941, the u.s. entered world war ii on the allied side.the aftermath of the war left the united states and the soviet union as the world's two superpowers and led to the cold war.during the cold war, both countries engaged in a struggle for ideological dominance but avoided direct military conflict.they also competed in the space race, which culminated in the 1969 landing of apollo 11, making the u.s. the first and only nation to ever land humans on the moon.with the soviet union's collapse and the subsequent end of the cold war in 1991, the united states emerged as the world's sole superpower.the united states government is a federal republic and a representative democracy with three separate branches of government.it has a bicameral national legislature composed of the house of representatives, a lower house; and the senate, an upper house based on equal representation for each state.many policy issues are decentralized, with widely differing laws by jurisdiction.the u.s. ranks highly in international measures of quality of life, income and wealth, economic competitiveness, human rights, innovation, and education; it has low levels of perceived corruption and the highest median income per person of any polity in the world.it has high levels of incarceration and inequality and lacks universal health care.as a melting pot of cultures and ethnicities, the u.s. has been shaped by the world's largest immigrant population.a developed country, the american economy accounts for approximately a quarter of global gdp and is the world's largest by gdp at market exchange rates.the united states is the world's largest importer and second-largest exporter.","united states | capital | washington dc king county washington | country | united states auburn washington | ispartof | king county washington","the national capital of the united states is washington, d.c., and its most populous city and principal financial center is new york city."

"a glastonbury romance was written by john cowper powys (1873–1963) in rural upstate new york and first published by simon and schuster in new york city in march 1932.an english edition published by john lane followed in 1933.it has 'nearly half-a-million words' and was described as 'probably the longest undivided novel in english'.it is the second of powys's wessex novels, along with wolf solent (1929), weymouth sands (1934) and maiden castle (1936).powys was an admirer of thomas hardy and these novels are set in somerset and dorset, parts of hardy's mythical wessex.the action occurs over roughly a year, and the first two chapters of a glastonbury romance take place in norfolk, where the late canon william crow's will is read, and the crow family learn that his secretary-valet john geard has inherited his wealth.also in norfolk, a romance begins between cousins, john and mary crow.however, after an important scene at the ancient monument of stonehenge, the rest of the action takes place in or near the somerset town of glastonbury, which is some ten miles north of the village of montacute.powys's father, the reverend charles francis powys (1843–1923), was parish priest of montacute from 1885 to 1918, and it was here that powys grew up.the grail legends associated with the town of glastonbury are of major importance in this novel, and welsh mythology has, for the first time, a significant role.the climax of volume 1 is geard's pageant, part of his plan to revive glastonbury as a place of religious pilgrimage.the pageant has three parts: 'arthurian scenes at the beginning', then a 'christmas 'passion play' ', followed by a final 'prehistoric portion'.however the pageant ends abruptly during the second part, when owen evans, who is enacting christ's death on the cross, collapses.in volume 2's final chapter, 'the flood', the sea invades the land, geard dies, and glastonbury becoming an island once again.the action begins in norfolk with the funeral canon william crow and the reading of his will, and where the romance between the cousins john and mary crow begins.the crow family members are shocked to learn that william' crow's secretary-valet, john geard, has inherited most of the deceased's wealth.john crow then sets off to walk to glastonbury, where he will rejoin mary.while crossing salisbury plain he is offered a ride in owen evans' car and the two men visit stonehenge.a central aspect of a glastonbury romance is the attempt by john geard, ex-minister, who becomes the mayor, to restore glastonbury to its medieval glory as a place of religious pilgrimage.on the other hand, the glastonbury industrialist philip crow, along with john and mary crow, and tom barter, all whom are from norfolk, view the myths and legends of the town with contempt.philip's vision is of a future with more mines and more factories.john crow, however, as he is penniless, takes on the task of organizing a pageant for geard.at the same time an alliance of anarchists, marxists, and jacobins try to turn glastonbury into a commune.like powys, owen evans is a devoted student of welsh mythology.he also resembles powys in that he has strong urges toward violence and sadism, and is often tempted by sadistic pornography.but evans is not the only character that resembles his creator, as both john geard and john crow reflect, in different ways, aspects of powys's personality.a glastonbury romance has several climactic moments, before the major final one.firstly there is sam dekker's decision, following his grail vision, to give-up of his adulterous affair with nell zoyland, and to lead a monk-like existence.","a glastonbury romance | mediatype | hardcover a glastonbury romance | oclc number | 76798317 a glastonbury romance | isbn number |

"bo 'bibbo' bibbowski is a fictional character appearing in american comic books published by dc comics.he is typically shown as a good friend and supportive advocate of superman.bibbo bibbowski first appeared in the adventures of superman #428 (may 1987) and was created by jerry ordway and marv wolfman.he is based on jerry ordway's real life friend, jo jo kaminski, described as a 'hard as nails softie'.when superman comes in looking for information, bibbo, thinking this is 'some clown in a superman suit', punches superman, damaging his hand.he gains respect for the man of steel.he would later refer to superman as his 'fav'rit' hero.during the eradicator saga, bibbo teams up with lobo and raof, a teleporter and a tribute to marvel's nightcrawler, to witness lobo kill superman.lobo gives bibbo a set of special goggles that will record the battle.all three, however, get drunk on okarran liquor and thus suffer loss of all memory of the battle, which superman won by a ruse engineered by the eradicator artifact.additionally, bibbo wore the goggles backwards, and thus the entire recording was of his reactions.as a result, the aliens who retained lobo to kill superman have no proof that there even was a battle.bibbo becomes a more significant part of the comic when he finds a winning lottery ticket dropped by gangbuster and uses the money to buy the ace o' clubs bar and to help those living in the slum.bibbo attempts to assist superman when superman becomes involved in a drawn-out fight against the murderous doomsday.bibbo works with professor hamilton on a plan to blast doomsday with a large laser.they score a direct hit, but the monster is not affected.when doomsday and superman ultimately kill each other, bibbo is on the scene and helps hamilton use a device to try to perform cpr on superman, despite the risk of the device killing bibbo himself.the plan fails and bibbo is injured.hamilton takes over the cpr but also fails.shortly afterward, bibbo encounters a young man who, his family rendered homeless by doomsday's rampage, is blatantly selling 'death of superman' commemorative souvenirs during a public commemoration honoring the man of steel.at first outraged at the man's crassness, bibbo feels some sympathy for his losses and buys his entire inventory to get him off the street, then offers him a job at the ace o' clubs.while superman is gone, bibbo takes to putting on a 'disguise' of sorts and helping out on the streets.around this time he saves a man from suicide.this is mostly told through tall tales concerning various super-villains.bibbo briefly takes care of a small white dog named krypto whom he had saved from drowning, not to be confused with the kryptonian dog of the same name.the name was supposed to be 'krypton', but the engraver bibbo hired to make a name tag made an intentional mistake, trying to extort more money from bibbo (the price accorded was for six letters).bibbo took the tag as it was.a poster seen by the hero aztek indicates that at one point, bibbo fought the hero wildcat during a charity boxing event.later in the series, the ace o' clubs bar is the site of a battle between the life-force devouring parasite and aztek.bibbo and his friends purposely ignore the fight, playing cards instead and trusting others to handle the villain.in the power of shazam!, ordway introduces professor bibbowski, bibbo's pacifist scientist brother.bibbo reappears in superman #679, shown as one of the champions of metropolis that the villainous atlas defeated.","bibbo bibbowski | creator | jerry ordway bibbo bibbowski | creator | marv wolfman bibbo bibbowski | fullname | bo bibbowski","bibbo bibbowski first appeared in the adventures of superman #428 (may 1987) and was created by jerry ordway and marv wolfman.he would later refer to superman as his 'fav'rit' hero.during the eradicator saga, bibbo teams up with lobo and raof, a teleporter and a tribute to marvel's nightcrawler, to witness lobo kill superman.in the power of shazam!, ordway introduces professor bibbowski, bibbo's pacifist scientist brother."

"birmingham ( (listen) bur-ming-əm) is a city and metropolitan borough in the metropolitan county of west midlands in england.it is the second-largest city in the united kingdom with a population of 1.145 million in the city proper, 2.92 million in the west midlands metropolitan county, and approximately 4.3 million in the wider metropolitan area.it is the largest uk metropolitan area outside of london.birmingham is commonly referred to as the second city of the united kingdom.located in the west midlands region of england, approximately 100 miles (160 km) from london, birmingham is considered to be the social, cultural, financial and commercial centre of the midlands.distinctively, birmingham only has small rivers flowing through it, mainly the river tame and its tributaries river rea and river cole – one of the closest main rivers is the severn, approximately 20 miles (32 km) west of the city centre.historically a market town in warwickshire in the medieval period, birmingham grew during the 18th century during the midlands enlightenment and during the industrial revolution, which saw advances in science, technology and economic development, producing a series of innovations that laid many of the foundations of modern industrial society.by 1791, it was being hailed as 'the first manufacturing town in the world'.birmingham's distinctive economic profile, with thousands of small workshops practising a wide variety of specialised and highly skilled trades, encouraged exceptional levels of creativity and innovation; this provided an economic base for prosperity that was to last into the final quarter of the 20th century.the watt steam engine was invented in birmingham.the resulting high level of social mobility also fostered a culture of political radicalism which, under leaders from thomas attwood to joseph chamberlain, was to give it a political influence unparalleled in britain outside london and a pivotal role in the development of british democracy.from the summer of 1940 to the spring of 1943, birmingham was bombed heavily by the german luftwaffe in what is known as the birmingham blitz.the damage done to the city's infrastructure, in addition to a deliberate policy of demolition and new building by planners, led to extensive urban regeneration in subsequent decades.birmingham's economy is now dominated by the service sector.the city is a major international commercial centre and an important transport, retail, events and conference hub.its metropolitan economy is the second-largest in the united kingdom with a gdp of $121.1bn (2014).its five universities, including the university of birmingham, make it the largest centre of higher education in the country outside london.birmingham's major cultural institutions – the city of birmingham symphony orchestra, birmingham royal ballet, birmingham repertory theatre, library of birmingham and barber institute of fine arts – enjoy international reputations, and the city has vibrant and influential grassroots art, music, literary and culinary scenes.the city also successfully hosted the 2022 commonwealth games.in 2021, birmingham was the third most visited city in the uk by people from foreign nations.beorma, after whom the tribe was named, could have been its leader at the time of the anglo-saxon settlement, a shared ancestor, or a mythical tribal figurehead.place names ending in -ingahām are characteristic of primary settlements established during the early phases of anglo-saxon colonisation of an area, suggesting that birmingham was probably in existence by the early 7th century at the latest.surrounding settlements with names ending in -tūn ('farm'), -lēah ('woodland clearing'), -worð ('enclosure') and -field ('open ground') are likely to be secondary settlements created by the later expansion of the anglo-saxon population, in some cases possibly on earlier british sites.the many burnt mounds that can still be seen around the city indicate that modern humans first intensively settled and cultivated the area during the bronze age, when a substantial but short-lived influx of population occurred between 1700 bc and 1000 bc, possibly caused by conflict or immigration in the surrounding area.","birmingham | postalcode | b postcode area 103 colmore row | architect | john madin john madin | hometown | birmingham birmingham | leadername | john clancy labour politician","place names ending in -ingahām are characteristic of primary settlements established during the early phases of anglo-saxon colonisation of an area, suggesting that birmingham was probably in existence by the early 7th century at the latest."

which are closely related to ethnic groups in neighboring eritrea and other parts of the horn of africa.the first documented use of the name 'ethiopia' from greek name 'αἰθίοψ' (ethiopian) was in the 4th century during the reign of aksumite king ezana.there were three ethnolinguistic groups in the kingdom of aksum; semitic, cushitic, and nilo-saharan (ancestors of the modern-day kunama and nara).the kingdom of aksum remained a geopolitically influential entity until the pillage of its capital — also named axum — in the 10th century by queen gudit.nevertheless, the core aksumite civilization was preserved and continued into the successive zagwe dynasty.by this time, new ethnic groups emerged – the tigrayans and amharas.during the solomonic period, the latter established major political and cultural influence in the horn of africa.in the late middle ages, muslim states were established, including the sultanate of ifat, and its successor the adal sultanate.discontent with territory and religious dominance led to intense war between the ethiopian empire, the christian state, (consisting of the amhara, tigrayan, soddo gurage, and agaw ethnic groups) and the muslim state adal sultanate (consisting of semitic speaking harari formally known as the harla people and the argobba).during the 1600s, there were large-scale migrations of the oromo from the south into the highlands and also alongside the somali into adal or what was known as 'hararghe' (land of the hararis).a period of stability and peace continued through the gondarine period in 16th and 17th century, but ethiopia was divided into de facto autonomous regions in the mid-18th century.during this time, ethiopia was nominally ruled by an emperor who functioned as a puppet monarch of various regional lords and noblemen.this era was known as the zemene mesafint or 'era of the princes'.emperor tewodros ii managed to unify the decentralized ethiopian empire in 1855 and inaugurated a process of modernization that continued into successive regimes, resurrecting the empire as a regional power.in the late 19th-century during the reign of menelik ii, against the backdrop of the scramble for africa, the notion of ethiopian national integrity was strengthened by italian efforts at colonization.the italian invasion engendered a formidable national resistance, culminating in the battle of adwa in 1896 which resulted in a major ethiopian victory against the italians.the resulting treaty of addis ababa ended the italo-ethiopian war, and along with the nation's contemporaneous territorial expansion, largely established the modern-day boundaries of ethiopia.present-day ethiopia has a diverse population with many different languages and ethnic groups.ethiopians speak afro-asiatic languages (semitic, cushitic, and omotic) and nilo-saharan languages.the oromo, amhara, somali and tigrayans make up more than three-quarters (75%) of the population, but there are more than 80 different ethnic groups within ethiopia.some of these have as few as 10,000 members.it is estimated to be 3.5 million years old.in october 2015, scientists found a 4,500 years ago lived man called mota in a cave in southern central ethiopia.atypical to euroasians, which were believed reached the region after him, mota's genetic variants was not as 'light-colored eye or skin', resembles the modern aari tribes that live in the southern area of the country.another research suggests that euroasians arrived in the region resembles modern-day sardinians, or likely lbk culture of antiquity.by proofing mota has no european genome, archeologist theorized the near east population migrated to africa in 3,000 years ago.other evidence concluded that eurasian population made significant contribution as a result of back migration between 1,500 and 3,500 years ago.","ethiopia | leadername | mulatu teshome addis ababa | ispartof | addis ababa stadium addis ababa city hall | country |

otherwise, the united kingdom is surrounded by the atlantic ocean, the north sea, the english channel, the celtic sea and the irish sea.the total area of the united kingdom is 242,495 square kilometres (93,628 sq mi), with an estimated 2023 population of over 68 million people.the united kingdom has evolved from a series of annexations, unions and separations of constituent countries over several hundred years.the treaty of union between the kingdom of england (which also included wales) and the kingdom of scotland in 1707 resulted in their unification to become the kingdom of great britain.its union in 1801 with the kingdom of ireland created the united kingdom of great britain and ireland.most of ireland seceded from the uk in 1922, leaving the present united kingdom of great britain and northern ireland, which formally adopted its name in 1927.the nearby isle of man, guernsey and jersey are not part of the uk, being crown dependencies, but the british government is responsible for their defence and international representation.the uk became the world's first industrialised country and was the foremost power during the 19th and early 20th centuries, a period of unchallenged global hegemony known as 'pax britannica'.the 14 british overseas territories are the last remnants of the british empire which, at its height in the 1920s, encompassed almost a quarter of the world's landmass and population, and was the largest empire in history.a part of the core anglophonic world, british influence can be observed in the language, culture, legal and political systems of many of its former colonies.the united kingdom is a constitutional monarchy and parliamentary democracy.its capital and largest city is london, the capital of england, a global city and financial centre with a metropolitan population of over 14 million people.edinburgh, cardiff and belfast are the national capitals of scotland, wales and northern ireland respectively.other major cities include birmingham, manchester, leeds, glasgow, sheffield and liverpool.scotland, wales, and northern ireland have their own devolved governments, each with varying powers.the uk is a great power, exerting significant economic, political, military, scientific and cultural influence in world affairs.it has the world's sixth-largest economy by nominal gross domestic product (gdp), and the tenth-largest by purchasing power parity.it is a recognised nuclear state and is the foremost military power in europe.the uk has been a permanent member of the united nations security council since its first session in 1946.it is a member of the commonwealth of nations, the council of europe, the g7, the oecd, the five eyes, nato and aukus, and was a member of the eu until its withdrawal with a free trade deal in 2020.the uk is set to join the cptpp, a major trade bloc in the indo-pacific, after negotiations regarding its accession concluded in march 2023.great britain encompassed the whole island, taking in the land north of the river forth known to the romans as caledonia in modern scotland (i.e.'greater' britain).in the middle ages, the name 'britain' was also applied to a small part of france now known as brittany.as a result, great britain (likely from the french 'grande bretagne') came into use to refer specifically to the island, with brittany often referred to as 'little britain'.","united kingdom | leadername | david cameron aids journal | country | united kingdom aids journal | publisher | lippincott williams & wilkins","no related information" "hera (minor planet designation: 103 hera) is a moderately large main-belt asteroid with an orbital period of 4.44 years.it was discovered by canadian-american astronomer james craig watson on september 7, 1868, and named after hera, queen and fifth in power of the olympian gods in greek mythology.this is a stony s-type asteroid with a silicate surface composition.photometric observations made in 2010 at the organ mesa observatory at las cruces, new mexico, and the hunters hill observatory at ngunnawal, australian capital territory, give a synodic rotation period of 23.740±0.001 h. the bimodal light curve shows a maximum brightness variation of 0.45 ± 0.03 in magnitude.measurements made with the iras observatory give a diameter of 91.58±4.14 km and a geometric albedo of 0.19±0.02.by comparison, the mips photometer on the spitzer space telescope gives a diameter of 88.30±8.51 km and a geometric albedo of 0.20±0.04.when the asteroid was observed occulting a star, the chords showed a diameter of 89.1±1.1 km.","103 hera | discoverer | james craig watson james craig watson | nationality | canada james craig watson | deathplace | madison wisconsin james craig watson | deathcause | peritonitis","it was discovered by canadian-american astronomer james craig watson on september 7, 1868, and named after hera, queen and fifth in power of the olympian gods in greek mythology."

noting that new york's albany was a commercial center located at the headwaters of the hudson river, they hoped that their town near the headwaters of the flint would prove to be just as successful.it proved to be nowhere near as prosperous.alexander shotwell laid out the town in 1836, and it was incorporated as a city by an act of the general assembly of georgia on december 27, 1838.tift was the city's leading entrepreneur for decades.an ardent booster, he promoted education, business, and railroad construction.during the civil war he provided naval supplies and helped build two ships.he opposed radical reconstruction inside the state and in congress, and was scornful of the yankee carpetbaggers who came in.historian john fair concludes that tift became 'more southern than many natives.'his pro-slavery attitudes before the war and his support for segregation afterward made him compatible with georgia's white elite.this area was developed for cotton cultivation by planters, who used numerous enslaved african americans to clear lands and process the cotton.as a result of the planters' acquisition of slave workers, by 1840 dougherty county's majority population was black, composed overwhelmingly of slaves.the market center for cotton plantations, albany was in a prime location for shipping cotton to other markets by steamboats.in 1858, tift hired horace king, a former slave and bridge builder, to construct a toll bridge over the river.king's bridge toll house still stands.already important as a shipping port, albany later became an important railroad hub in southwestern georgia.seven lines were constructed to the town.an exhibit on trains is located at the thronateeska heritage center in the former railroad station.in the early years following the war, styles, like tift, took great exception to the radical reconstruction program then in force, and advocated for a more moderate response based on his interpretation of georgia's rights under the constitution.styles backed 'constitutional reconstruction' advanced by benjamin h. hill and sought support for the idea from the national democratic party.while on a trip to atlanta in may 1868, to meet with democratic party leaders, styles took measure of the contemporary atlanta newspapers, and found them lacking.","albany georgia | ispartof | georgia us state united states | demonym | americans albany georgia | country | united states united states | ethnicgroup | african americans","albany ( awl-bə-nee) is a city in the u.s. state of georgia.located in southwest georgia, it is the principal city of the albany, georgia metropolitan area.alexander shotwell laid out the town in 1836, and it was incorporated as a city by an act of the general assembly of georgia on december 27, 1838.tift was the city's leading entrepreneur for decades.his pro-slavery attitudes before the war and his support for segregation afterward made him compatible with georgia's white elite.this area was developed for cotton cultivation by planters, who used numerous enslaved african americans to clear lands and process the cotton.already important as a shipping port, albany later became an important railroad hub in southwestern georgia.in the early years following the war, styles, like tift, took great exception to the radical reconstruction program then in force, and advocated for a more moderate response based on his interpretation of georgia's rights under the constitution."

retaliation for the killing of quds leader qasem soleimani in a u.s. drone strike a few days earlier.the airbase is divided by wādī al asadī (وادي الاسدي), a wadi whose course passes through the oasis along the base's western edge and then continues eastward, emptying into the euphrates river at khan al baghdadi.this oasis is locally referred to as 'abraham's well'.the ‘ayn al asad spring surfaces within the base and flows into the wādī al asadī.geologically, the base resides in the al-ḥammād sector of the syrian desert, composed mostly of a rock and gravel steppe.qadisiyah ab was one of five new air bases built in iraq as part of their project 'super-base', launched in 1975 as a response to the lessons learned during the arab-israeli wars of 1967 and 1973.the base was built sometime between 1981 and 1987 by a consortium of yugoslavian companies under contract to the government of iraq.two yugoslav government agencies led the project.the fdsp (federal directorate of supply and procurement) acted as the project manager and aeroengineering acted as the project engineer.known as 'project 202-b' and 'project 1100', the companies involved in its construction included granit, vranica d.d.sarajevo, i.l.lavčević d.d.split, and unioninvest d.d.sarajevo.the us$280,000,000 project at qadisiyah ab included accommodation for 5,000 personnel and the necessary infrastructure including public facilities (mosques, outdoor and indoor olympic swimming pool, football field, sports hall, cinema, library, elementary school, high school, hospital and clinic) and fortified military facilities (military airport, shelters for personnel and equipment, shelters for bombers and fighters and military barracks).the hardened aircraft shelters built here and throughout iraq by the yugoslavs were nicknamed 'yugos'.at the time they were considered state of the art but were rendered obsolete in 1991 after the development of the gbu-28 laser-guided bunker-buster bomb.prior to the 2003 us-led invasion of iraq, the base housed three units of the iraqi air force, which flew mig-25s and mig-21s.it was abandoned shortly after the start of the invasion.it was initially known as objective webster, and then eventually was renamed al asad airbase, which means 'the lion' in arabic.the 3rd acr was relieved by the marines of the 1st marine expeditionary force in march 2004.al asad became the largest u.s. base in western iraq and the western equivalent of baghdad's green zone.al asad was a major convoy hub, hosting hundreds of fuel and supply trucks every day.huge shipments of fuel were commonly run along the dangerous routes coming out of jordan and, despite insurgent attempts, a majority of these convoys arrived at their destinations untouched.a single convoy operation would sometimes last a couple days with trucks on the road for over 8 hours a day.","al asad airbase | operatingorganisation | united states air force united states air force | attackaircraft |

noting that new york's albany was a commercial center located at the headwaters of the hudson river, they hoped that their town near the headwaters of the flint would prove to be just as successful.it proved to be nowhere near as prosperous.alexander shotwell laid out the town in 1836, and it was incorporated as a city by an act of the general assembly of georgia on december 27, 1838.tift was the city's leading entrepreneur for decades.an ardent booster, he promoted education, business, and railroad construction.during the civil war he provided naval supplies and helped build two ships.he opposed radical reconstruction inside the state and in congress, and was scornful of the yankee carpetbaggers who came in.historian john fair concludes that tift became 'more southern than many natives.'his pro-slavery attitudes before the war and his support for segregation afterward made him compatible with georgia's white elite.this area was developed for cotton cultivation by planters, who used numerous enslaved african americans to clear lands and process the cotton.as a result of the planters' acquisition of slave workers, by 1840 dougherty county's majority population was black, composed overwhelmingly of slaves.the market center for cotton plantations, albany was in a prime location for shipping cotton to other markets by steamboats.in 1858, tift hired horace king, a former slave and bridge builder, to construct a toll bridge over the river.king's bridge toll house still stands.already important as a shipping port, albany later became an important railroad hub in southwestern georgia.seven lines were constructed to the town.an exhibit on trains is located at the thronateeska heritage center in the former railroad station.in the early years following the war, styles, like tift, took great exception to the radical reconstruction program then in force, and advocated for a more moderate response based on his interpretation of georgia's rights under the constitution.styles backed 'constitutional reconstruction' advanced by benjamin h. hill and sought support for the idea from the national democratic party.while on a trip to atlanta in may 1868, to meet with democratic party leaders, styles took measure of the contemporary atlanta newspapers, and found them lacking.","albany georgia | ispartof | georgia us state united states | ethnicgroup | asian americans united states | language | english language albany georgia | country | united states","albany ( awl-bə-nee) is a city in the u.s. state of georgia.located in southwest georgia, it is the principal city of the albany, georgia metropolitan area.alexander shotwell laid out the town in 1836, and it was incorporated as a city by an act of the general assembly of georgia on december 27, 1838.tift was the city's leading entrepreneur for decades.his pro-slavery attitudes before the war and his support for segregation afterward made him compatible with georgia's white elite.this area was developed for cotton cultivation by planters, who used numerous enslaved african americans to clear lands and process the cotton.already important as a shipping port, albany later became an important railroad hub in southwestern georgia.in the early years following the war, styles, like tift, took great exception to the radical reconstruction program then in force, and advocated for a more moderate response based on his interpretation of georgia's rights under the constitution."

became the largest u.s. base in western iraq and the western equivalent of baghdad's green zone.al asad was a major convoy hub, hosting hundreds of fuel and supply trucks every day.huge shipments of fuel were commonly run along the dangerous routes coming out of jordan and, despite insurgent attempts, a majority of these convoys arrived at their destinations untouched.a single convoy operation would sometimes last a couple days with trucks on the road for over 8 hours a day.","al asad airbase | operatingorganisation | united states air force united states air force | battles | invasion of

"a bacon sandwich (also known in parts of the united kingdom and new zealand as a bacon butty, bacon bap or bacon sarnie, and in parts of ireland as a rasher sandwich) is a sandwich of cooked bacon between bread that is optionally spread with butter, and may be seasoned with ketchup or brown sauce.it is generally served hot.in some establishments the sandwich will be made from bread toasted on only one side, while other establishments serve it on the same roll as is used for hamburgers.bacon sandwiches are an all-day favourite throughout the united kingdom and the republic of ireland.they are often served in british cafes and delis, and are anecdotally recommended as a hangover cure.each variant was then ranked by 50 tasters.in conclusion, the best bacon sandwiches are made with 'crispy, fried, and not-too-fat bacon between thick slices of white bread.'another study by the direct line for business listed the top additions to the traditional bacon butty in england.although the original was still the preferred sandwich, the next top contender was the 'breggy' which adds an egg.the next popular accessory was mushrooms, followed by cheese.for sauces, brown sauce was slightly favoured over ketchup.however food writer felicity cloake recommends neither, favouring marmalade and mustard instead.the blt is a popular variant of the bacon sandwich with the additional ingredients of lettuce and tomato, but served cold.in ontario, canada, peameal bacon sandwiches are a common variation, usually served on a soft kaiser bun and are considered the unofficial dish of toronto.the double down contains 'bacon, two different kinds of melted cheese, the colonel’s 'secret' sauce... pinched in between two pieces of original recipe chicken fillets.'it is also available with grilled chicken fillets instead of the original recipe fried fillets.the kfc double down was initially test marketed in omaha, nebraska and providence, rhode island.kfc describes the double down as a 'sandwich' although it does not have bread.the sandwich consists of a single warmed, hollowed-out loaf of bread filled with one jar of creamy peanut butter, one jar of grape jelly, and a pound of bacon.the name of the sandwich is derived from its price of $49.95.in later years, it was priced closer to $100 for the sandwich and a bottle of dom pérignon.although no numerical value was provided for the risk, they did state that 'people should not eat more than 500g of red meat a week.'the world health organization released a warning concerning the sodium content in bacon.for 100g of bacon, there are approximately 1,500 mg of sodium.currently, the fda reports that the average american adult should consume less than 2,300 mg per day.too much sodium in the diet can lead to high blood pressure, which is a major cause of heart disease and stroke.bbc.british broadcasting corporation.9 april 2007.","bacon sandwich | dishvariation | blt bacon sandwich | country | united kingdom bacon sandwich | ingredient | condiment","a bacon sandwich (also known in parts of the united kingdom and new zealand as a bacon butty, bacon bap or bacon sarnie, and in parts of ireland as a rasher sandwich) is a sandwich of cooked bacon between bread that is optionally spread with butter, and may be seasoned with ketchup or brown sauce.bacon sandwiches are an all-day favourite throughout the united kingdom and the republic of ireland.however food writer felicity cloake recommends neither, favouring marmalade and mustard instead.the blt is a popular variant of the bacon sandwich with the additional ingredients of lettuce and tomato, but served cold.in ontario, canada, peameal bacon sandwiches are a common variation, usually served on a soft kaiser bun and are considered the unofficial dish of toronto."

"antioch is the third-largest city in contra costa county, california, united states.the city is located in the east bay region of the san francisco bay area along the sacramento–san joaquin river delta.the city's population was 115,291 at the 2020 census.the city has grown substantially more diverse since the 1970s.the town has been variously named east antioch, smith's landing, and marsh's landing, prior to its current name.in 1848, john marsh, owner of rancho los méganos, one of the largest ranches in california, built a landing on the san joaquin river in what is now antioch.it became known as marsh's landing, and was the shipping point for the 17,000-acre (69 km2) rancho.it included a pier extending well out into the river, enabling vessels drawing 15 feet (4.6 m) of water to tie up there in any season of the year.the landing also included a slaughterhouse, a smokehouse for curing hams, rodeo grounds, and a 1+1⁄2-story dwelling, embellished with fretwork, that was brought around the horn to serve as a home for the mayordomo and his wife.in 1849, twin brothers rev.william wiggins smith and rev.joseph horton smith sailed from boston, purchased land from john marsh and founded a town slightly west of marsh's landing, and named it smith's landing.during the town picnic on july 4, 1851, william, the town's new minister, persuaded the residents to change the name of the town to antioch, for the biblical city of antioch, 'in as much as the first settlers were disciples of christ, and one of them had died and was buried on the land, that it be given a bible name in his honor, and suggested 'antioch' (an ancient syrian town where two important rivers meet and where the followers of christ were first called christians), and by united acclamation it was so christened.'around 1859, coal was discovered in several places in the hills south of antioch, and coal mining formed the first substantial business apart from farming and dairying for the inhabitants of this community.this new industry resulted in the founding of the towns of nortonville, somersville, stewartville, and black diamond (now pittsburg), and added greatly to the economic activity of the antioch area.the empire coal company was formed by john c. rouse and george hawxhurst in 1876, which built a railroad that passed from antioch toward the mines over what is now 'f street' (formerly kimball street).however, later on, both the mine and the railroad passed into the hands of the belshaw brothers.the mines have long since ceased operation, and the railroad tracks have been dug up, though the building that served as the antioch terminus of the railroad still stands on the corner of f street and fourth street, and the grading and trestles still remain much as they were in those early days.in 1863, a great excitement arose over the discovery of copper ore near antioch.smelting works were built at antioch, and the ore fetched $15 to $25 per ton.the copper bubble eventually burst, to the dismay of the citizens, and petroleum was first drilled for near antioch in 1865, but not enough oil was found to make a decent profit.the antioch post office was opened in 1851, closed in 1852, reopened in 1855, closed again in 1862, and has operated continuously since reopening in 1863.the city of antioch was incorporated in 1872.the antioch ledger was first issued on march 10, 1870.to commemorate the paper's formation, a copy of its first issue has been framed and hangs over the desk of the present editor.","antioch california | utcoffset | -7 antioch california |

village on the plains,' taken from a line in the poem the deserted village by oliver goldsmith: 'sweet auburn!loveliest village of the plain...' == history == inhabited in antiquity by the creek, the land on which auburn sits was opened to settlement in 1832 with the treaty of cusseta.the first settlers arrived in the winter of 1836 from harris county, georgia.these settlers, led by judge john j. harper, intended to build a town that would be the religious and educational center for the area.auburn was incorporated on february 2, 1839, in what was then macon county, covering an area of 2 square miles (5.2 km2).by that time, methodist and baptist churches had been established, and a school had been built and had come into operation.in the mid-1840s, separate academies for boys and girls were established in addition to the primary school.this concentration of educational institutions led to a rapid influx of families from the planter class into auburn in the 1840s and 1850s.by 1858, of the roughly 1,000 free residents of auburn, some 500 were students.in 1856, the state legislature chartered a methodist college, the east alabama male college in auburn.this college, now auburn university, opened its doors in 1859, offering a classical and liberal education.with the advent of the civil war in 1861, auburn quickly emptied.all of the schools closed, and most businesses shuttered.auburn was the site of a hospital for texan confederate soldiers, but only saw direct combat with the raids of rousseau in 1864 and wilson in 1865.after the civil war, auburn's economy entered a prolonged depression that would last the remainder of the century.public schools did not reopen until the mid-1870s, and most businesses remained closed.a series of fires in the 1860s and 1870s gutted the downtown area.east alabama male college was turned over to the state in 1872, and with funds from the federal morrill act was renamed alabama agricultural and mechanical college with a new mission as a land grant college.passage of the hatch act in 1887 allowed for expansion of agricultural research facilities on campus.in 1892, the college became the first four-year college in alabama to admit women.this, combined with increased interest in scientific agriculture and engineering and new funding from business licenses, allowed the city to start expanding again.by 1910, auburn's population had returned to its antebellum level.siaa conference championships won by the auburn college's football team brought attention and support to auburn, and helped fill the city's coffers.fortunes were quickly reversed with the collapse of cotton prices in the early 1920s and the subsequent great depression a decade later.due to these events, the state government became unable to fund the college, and—as auburn's economy was completely derived from the college—residents were forced into a barter economy to support themselves.","auburn alabama | ispartof | lee county alabama

"contra costa county ( (listen); contra costa, spanish for 'opposite coast') is a county located in the u.s. state of california, in the east bay of the san francisco bay area.as of the 2020 united states census, the population was 1,165,927.the county seat is martinez.it occupies the northern portion of the east bay region of the san francisco bay area and is primarily suburban.the county's name refers to its position on the other side of the bay from san francisco.contra costa county is included in the san francisco–oakland–berkeley, ca metropolitan statistical area.in the northern part of the county, significant coal and sand deposits were formed in even earlier geologic eras.other areas of the county have ridges exposing ancient but intact (not fossilized) seashells, embedded in sandstone layers alternating with limestone.layers of volcanic ash ejected from geologically recent but now extinct volcanoes, compacted and now tilted by compressive forces, may be seen at the site of some road excavations.this county is an agglomeration of several distinct geologic terranes, as is most of the greater san francisco bay area, which is one of the most geologically complex regions in the world.the great local mountain mount diablo has been formed and continues to be elevated by compressive forces resulting from the action of plate tectonics and at its upper reaches presents ancient seabed rocks scraped from distant oceanic sedimentation locations and accumulated and lifted by these great forces.younger deposits at middle altitudes include pillow lavas, the product of undersea volcanic eruptions.the earliest definitively established occupation by modern man (homo sapiens) appears to have occurred six to ten thousand years ago.however, there may have been human presence far earlier, at least as far as non–settling populations are concerned.the known settled populations were hunter-gatherer societies that had no knowledge of metals and that produced utilitarian crafts for everyday use (especially woven reed baskets) of the highest quality and with graphic embellishments of great aesthetic appeal.extensive trading from tribe to tribe transferred exotic materials such as obsidian (useful for the making of arrowheads and other stone tools) throughout the region from far distant californian tribes.unlike the nomadic native american of the great plains it appears that these tribes did not incorporate warfare into their culture but were instead generally cooperative.within these cultures the concept of individual or collective land ownership was nonexistent.early european settlers in the region, however, did not record much about the culture of the natives.most of what is known culturally comes from preserved contemporaneous and excavated artifacts and from inter-generational knowledge passed down through northerly outlying tribes of the larger region.although there were no missions established within this county, spanish influence here was direct and extensive, through the establishment of land grants from the king of spain to favored settlers.while little changed in ranchero life, the mexican war of independence resulted in the secularization of the missions with the re-distribution of their lands, and a new system of land grants under the mexican federal law of 1824.mission lands extended throughout the bay area, including portions of contra costa county.between 1836 and 1846, during the era when california was a province of independent mexico, the following 15 land grants were made in contra costa county.the smallest unit was one square league, or about seven square miles, or 4,400 acres (17.8 square kilometers), maximum to one individual was eleven leagues, or 48,400 acres (195.9 km2), including no more than 4,428 acres (17.9 km2) of irrigable land.rough surveying was based on a map, or diseño, measured by streams, shorelines, and/or horseman who marked it with rope and stakes.","contra costa county california | ispartof | san francisco bay area antioch california | ispartof | california antioch california | ispartof | contra costa county california california | language | spanish language","contra costa county ( (listen);

tower and a 3,700-metre-long (12,000 ft) precision approach runway (12l-30r), opened in 1994 and was named after the country's first president, saparmyrat niyazov.the new airport terminal opened in september 2016, after being completely redesigned and rebuilt and after the south runway was moved and lengthened to parallel the north runway.for this route, four-passenger junkers f.13 aircraft were purchased in germany, as well as soviet four-passenger kalinin k-4 aircraft.eight aircraft served this airline.later, in 1932, newer soviet aircraft were purchased for the transport of passengers.the kalinin k-5 aircraft seated six, and the tupolev ant-9 aircraft had twelve seats.with this replenishment of the turkmen ssr air fleet, in 1932 an air division was formed at chardzhou airport that directly served the chardzhou-tashauz route, without stops in other settlements.in soviet times, the airport was used exclusively for servicing flights within the ussr.currently, in addition to the aircraft of the local airline fleet, the airport serves the planes of several foreign airlines of the world, performing both passenger and cargo flights.in soviet times, the airport was used exclusively for domestic flights.as part of saparmurat niyazov's aspiration to transform turkmenistan into 'the new kuwait', he sought to construct a distinctive airport.this zeal resulted in the control tower being constructed on the wrong side of the runway.the 'gaudy new terminal' now blocked the view of air traffic controllers as they guided pilots.the builders warned him of this, however, he responded that, 'it looks better this way.'the building was dismantled in 2013.polimeks, a turkish construction company active in turkmenistan since the late-1990s, was declared winner of the tender.the new airport was opened on 17 september 2016 by president gurbanguly berdimuhamedow.the project cost $2.3 billion (€1.7 billion) and features a highly unusual terminal design in the shape of a falcon.the new airport has capacity to serve 14 million passengers per year at a rate of 1,600 passengers per hour.the airport covers 350,000 m2 and includes a passenger terminal, vip terminal, cargo terminal with capacity to handle 200,000 tonnes of freight per year, a new air traffic control tower (atct), a maintenance hangar for three narrow-body aircraft, new fueling stations, catering, fire brigade, flight simulation, repair and maintenance buildings, parking space for 3,000 cars, a civil aviation school as well as a medical center.the airport has also a second 3,800-meter long runway to serve wide-body, double-deck jet airliners such as the airbus a380 and boeing 747-8.all services of the airport work around the clock.the airport includes passenger waiting rooms,

"benegnet is a visayan dessert soup from the central philippines.the dish is traditionally made with glutinous rice cooked in coconut milk with various slices of sabá bananas, taro, ube, and sweet potato, among other ingredients.it is comparable to various dessert guinataán (coconut milk-based) dishes found in other regions such as bilo-bilo.among the visayan people, the dish is traditionally served during good friday of holy week.binignit is considered a type of lugaw (rice gruel) and guinataán (dishes cooked in coconut milk).two cups of water are then added to the grated coconut, and a second extraction is made.this becomes the 'thin' milk.this 'thin' coconut milk extract is added to cubed kamote (sweet potato), gabi (taro) and ube (purple yam), sliced ripe sabá bananas, langka (jack fruit), and tapioca pearls.sometimes, young coconut meat strips are also added.this is simmered on low to medium heat, to prevent the coconut milk from curdling.glutinous rice (pilit) is added once the root crops have sufficiently softened and the mixture is brought to a boil; being stirred occasionally until done.just before removal from the flame, the 'thick' coconut milk is added.the people of the neighboring island of leyte use ingredients such as landang (palm flour jelly balls), jackfruit, and anise, and thicken it with milled glutinous rice.the vegetables and the pearl sago are cooked in a mixture of water, coconut milk and landang, and sweetened by muscovado or brown sugar.for the people of panay, their version contains balls made of glutinous flour, as well as jackfruit.the balls are formed and boiled until they float, indicating that they are cooked.these are then added to the linugaw or eangkuga.this is similar to the preparation of bilo-bilo but the locals call it by eangkuga or linugaw.others serve it chilled or even frozen, eating the dessert much like ice cream.among the visayan people, the soup is also widely cooked and eaten for the holy

"celery (apium graveolens) is a marshland plant in the family apiaceae that has been cultivated as a vegetable since antiquity.celery has a long fibrous stalk tapering into leaves.depending on location and cultivar, either its stalks, leaves or hypocotyl are eaten and used in cooking.celery seed powder is used as a spice.celery is a biennial plant that is primarily grown for its thick stalk.it belongs to the apiaceae family, which also includes parsley, carrots, and fennel.celery leaves are pinnate to bipinnate, with rhombic leaflets 3-6 cm long and 2-4 cm wide.the flowers are creamy-white, 2-3 mm in diameter, and are produced in dense compound umbels.modern cultivars have been selected for either solid petioles, leaf stalks, or a large hypocotyl.wild celery, apium graveolens var.graveolens, grows up to 1 meter tall and occurs around the globe.the first cultivation of celery is believed to have happened in the mediterranean region, where celery grew in agropyro-rumicion-plant communities.north of the alps, wild celery is found only in the foothill zone on soils with some salt content.it prefers moist or wet, nutrient-rich, muddy soils.celery was first grown as a winter and early spring vegetable, and it was considered a cleansing tonic to counter the deficiencies of a winter diet based on salted meats without fresh vegetables.by the 19th century, the season for celery in england had been extended to last from the beginning of september to late in april.the plants are raised from seed, sown either in a hot bed or in the open garden according to the season of the year, and, after one or two thinnings and transplantings, they are, on attaining a height of 15–20 cm, planted out in deep trenches for convenience of blanching, which is effected by earthing up to exclude light from the stems.development of self-blanching varieties of celery, which do not need to be earthed up, dominate both the commercial and amateur market.in north america, commercial production of celery is dominated by the cultivar called 'pascal' celery.gardeners can grow a range of cultivars, many of which differ from the wild species, mainly in having stouter leaf stems.they are ranged under two classes, white and red.the stalks grow in tight, straight, parallel bunches, and are typically marketed fresh that way.they are sold without roots and only a small amount of green leaf remaining.in europe, another popular variety is celeriac (also known as celery root), apium graveolens var.rapaceum, grown because its hypocotyl forms a large bulb, white on the inside.the bulb can be kept for months in winter and mostly serves as a main ingredient in soup.it can also be shredded and used in salads.the leaves are used as seasoning; the small, fibrous stalks find only marginal use.the flowers are creamy-white, 2–3 mm (3⁄32–1⁄8 in) in diameter, and are produced in dense compound umbels.the seeds are broad ovoid to globose, 1.5–2 mm (1⁄16–5⁄64 in) long and wide.modern cultivars have been selected for either solid petioles, leaf stalks, or a large hypocotyl.a celery stalk readily separates into 'strings' which are bundles of angular collenchyma cells exterior to the vascular bundles.wild celery, apium graveolens var.graveolens, grows to 1 m (3 ft 3 in) tall.celery is a biennial plant that occurs around the globe.it produces flowers and seeds only during its second year.the first cultivation is thought to have happened in the mediterranean region, where the natural habitats were salty and wet, or marshy soils near the coast where celery grew in agropyro-rumicion-plant communities.north of the alps, wild celery is found only in the foothill zone on soils with some salt content.","celery | genus | apium bakso | ingredient | celery celery | family | apiaceae","celery (apium graveolens) is a marshland plant in the family apiaceae that has been cultivated as a vegetable since antiquity.wild celery, apium graveolens var.in europe, another popular variety is celeriac (also known as celery root), apium graveolens var.a celery stalk readily separates into 'strings' which are bundles of angular collenchyma cells exterior to the vascular bundles.wild celery, apium graveolens var." "poaceae () or gramineae () is a large and nearly ubiquitous family of monocotyledonous flowering plants commonly known as grasses.it includes the cereal grasses, bamboos and the grasses of natural grassland and species cultivated in lawns and pasture.the latter are commonly referred to collectively as grass.with around 780 genera and around 12,000 species, the poaceae is the fifth-largest plant family, following the asteraceae, orchidaceae, fabaceae and rubiaceae.the poaceae are the most economically important plant family, providing staple foods from domesticated cereal crops such as maize, wheat, rice, barley, and millet as well as feed for meat-producing animals.they provide, through direct human consumption, just over one-half (51%) of all dietary energy; rice provides 20%, wheat supplies 20%, maize (corn) 5.5%, and other grains 6%.some members of the poaceae are used as building materials (bamboo, thatch, and straw); others can provide a source of biofuel, primarily via the conversion of maize to ethanol.grasses have stems that are hollow except at the nodes and narrow alternate leaves borne in two ranks.the lower part of each leaf encloses the stem, forming a leaf-sheath.the leaf grows from the base of the blade, an adaptation allowing it to cope with frequent grazing.grasslands such as savannah and prairie where grasses are dominant are estimated to constitute 40.5% of the land area of the earth, excluding greenland and antarctica.grasses are also an important part of the vegetation in many other habitats, including wetlands, forests and tundra.though they are commonly called 'grasses', groups such as the seagrasses, rushes and sedges fall outside this family.the rushes and sedges are related to the poaceae, being members of the order poales, but the seagrasses are members of order alismatales.however, all of them belong to the monocot group of plants.grass leaves are nearly always alternate and distichous (in one plane), and have parallel veins.: 11  each leaf is differentiated into a lower sheath hugging the stem and a blade with entire (i.e., smooth) margins.: 11  the leaf blades of many grasses are hardened with silica phytoliths, which discourage grazing animals; some, such as sword grass, are sharp enough to cut human skin.a membranous appendage or fringe of hairs called the ligule lies at the junction between sheath and blade, preventing water or insects from penetrating into the sheath.: 11  flowers of poaceae are characteristically arranged in spikelets, each having one or more florets.: 12  the spikelets are further grouped into panicles or spikes.the part of the spikelet that bears the florets is called the rachilla.a spikelet consists of two (or sometimes fewer) bracts at the base, called glumes, followed by one or more florets.: 13  a floret consists of the flower surrounded by two bracts, one external—the lemma—and one internal—the palea.the flowers are usually hermaphroditic—maize being an important exception—and mainly anemophilous or wind-pollinated, although insects occasionally play a role.the perianth is reduced to two scales, called lodicules,: 11  that expand and contract to spread the lemma and palea; these are generally interpreted to be modified sepals.the fruit of grasses is a caryopsis, in which the seed coat is fused to the fruit wall.: 16  a tiller is a leafy shoot other than the first shoot produced from the seed.: 11  === growth and development === grass blades grow at the base of the blade and not from elongated stem tips.this low growth point evolved in response to grazing animals and allows grasses to be grazed or mown regularly without severe damage to the plant.: 113–114 three general classifications of growth habit present in grasses: bunch-type (also called caespitose), stoloniferous, and rhizomatous.","poaceae | class | monocotyledon poaceae | division | flowering plant poaceae | order | commelinids ardmore airport new zealand | 2nd runway surfacetype | poaceae","poaceae () or gramineae () is a large and nearly ubiquitous family of monocotyledonous flowering plants commonly known as grasses.with around 780 genera and around 12,000 species, the poaceae is the fifth-largest plant family, following the asteraceae, orchidaceae, fabaceae and rubiaceae.the poaceae are the most economically important plant family, providing staple foods from domesticated cereal crops such as maize, wheat, rice, barley, and millet as well as feed for meat-producing animals."

surface of the ground to denudation.about one-third of the land surface of the earth is arid or semi-arid.this includes much of the polar regions, where little precipitation occurs, and which are sometimes called polar deserts or 'cold deserts'.deserts can be classified by the amount of precipitation that falls, by the temperature that prevails, by the causes of desertification or by their geographical location.deserts are formed by weathering processes as large variations in temperature between day and night put strains on the rocks, which consequently break in pieces.although rain seldom occurs in deserts, there are occasional downpours that can result in flash floods.rain falling on hot rocks can cause them to shatter, and the resulting fragments and rubble strewn over the desert floor are further eroded by the wind.this picks up particles of sand and dust, which can remain airborne for extended periods – sometimes causing the formation of sand storms or dust storms.wind-blown sand grains striking any solid object in their path can abrade the surface.rocks are smoothed down, and the wind sorts sand into uniform deposits.the grains end up as level sheets of sand or are piled high in billowing sand dunes.other deserts are flat, stony plains where all the fine material has been blown away and the surface consists of a mosaic of smooth stones, often forming desert pavements, and little further erosion takes place.other desert features include rock outcrops, exposed bedrock and clays once deposited by flowing water.temporary lakes may form and salt pans may be left when waters evaporate.there may be underground sources of water, in the form of springs and seepages from aquifers.where these are found, oases can occur.plants and animals living in the desert need special adaptations to survive in the harsh environment.plants tend to be tough and wiry with small or no leaves, water-resistant cuticles, and often spines to deter herbivory.some annual plants germinate, bloom and die in the course of a few weeks after rainfall, while other long-lived plants survive for years and have deep root systems able to tap underground moisture.animals need to keep cool and find enough food and water to survive.many are nocturnal, and stay in the shade or underground during the heat of the day.they tend to be efficient at conserving water, extracting most of their needs from their food and concentrating their urine.some animals remain in a state of dormancy for long periods, ready to become active again during the rare rainfall.they then reproduce rapidly while conditions are favorable before returning to dormancy.people have struggled to live in deserts and the surrounding semi-arid lands for millennia.nomads have moved their flocks and herds to wherever grazing is available, and oases have provided opportunities for a more settled way of life.the cultivation of semi-arid regions encourages erosion of soil and is one of the causes of increased desertification.desert farming is possible with the aid of irrigation, and the imperial valley in california provides an example of how previously barren land can be made productive by the import of water from an outside source.many trade routes have been forged across deserts, especially across the sahara, and traditionally were used by caravans of camels carrying salt, gold, ivory and other goods.large numbers of slaves were also taken northwards across the sahara.some mineral extraction also takes place in deserts, and the uninterrupted sunlight gives potential for the capture of large quantities of solar energy.","dessert | dishvariation | cake bionico | ingredient | granola bionico | course | dessert","no related information" "the united states of america (u.s.a. or usa),

"indonesia, officially the republic of indonesia, is a country in southeast asia and oceania between the indian and pacific oceans.it consists of over 17,000 islands, including sumatra, java, sulawesi, and parts of borneo and new guinea.indonesia is the world's largest archipelagic state and the 14th-largest country by area, at 1,904,569 square kilometres (735,358 square miles).with around 280 million people, indonesia is the world's fourth-most populous country and the most populous muslim-majority country.java, the world's most populous island, is home to more than half of the country's population.as the world's third largest democracy, indonesia is a presidential republic with an elected legislature.it has 38 provinces, of which nine have special status.the country's capital, jakarta, is the world's second-most populous urban area.indonesia shares land borders with papua new guinea, east timor, and the eastern part of malaysia, as well as maritime borders with singapore, vietnam, thailand, the philippines, australia, palau, and india.despite its large population and densely populated regions, indonesia has vast areas of wilderness that support one of the world's highest level of biodiversity.the indonesian archipelago has been a valuable region for trade since at least the seventh century, when the srivijaya kingdom formed trade links with china.indonesian history has been influenced by foreign powers drawn to its natural resources.under indian influence, hindu and buddhist kingdoms flourished from the early centuries ce.muslim traders later brought islam, and european powers fought one another to monopolise trade in the spice islands of maluku during the age of discovery.following three and a half centuries of dutch colonialism, indonesia secured its independence after world war ii.indonesia's history has since been turbulent, with challenges posed by natural disasters, corruption, separatism, a democratisation process, and periods of rapid economic change.indonesia consists of thousands of distinct native ethnic and hundreds of linguistic groups, with javanese being the largest.a shared identity has developed with the motto 'bhinneka tunggal ika' ('unity in diversity' literally, 'many, yet one'), defined by a national language, cultural diversity, religious pluralism within a muslim-majority population, and a history of colonialism and rebellion against it.the economy of indonesia is the world's 16th-largest by nominal gdp and the 7th-largest by ppp.it is a regional power and is considered a middle power in global affairs.the country is a member of several multilateral organisations, including the united nations, world trade organization, g20, and a founding member of the non-aligned movement, association of southeast asian nations, east asia summit, d-8 and the organisation of islamic cooperation.the name dates back to the 19th century, far predating the formation of independent indonesia.in 1850, george windsor earl, an english ethnologist, proposed the terms indunesians—and, his preference, malayunesians—for the inhabitants of the 'indian archipelago or malay archipelago'.in the same publication, one of his students, james richardson logan, used indonesia as a synonym for indian archipelago.dutch academics writing in east indies publications were reluctant to use indonesia.they preferred malay archipelago (dutch: maleische archipel); the netherlands east indies (nederlandsch oost indië), popularly indië; the east (de oost); and insulinde.after 1900, indonesia became more common in academic circles outside the netherlands, and native nationalist groups adopted it for political expression.adolf bastian of the university of berlin popularized the name through his book indonesien oder die inseln des malayischen archipels, 1884–1894.the first native scholar to use the name was ki hajar dewantara when in 1913, he established a press bureau in the netherlands, indonesisch pers-bureau.homo sapiens reached the region around 43,000 bce.austronesian peoples, who form the majority of the modern population, migrated to southeast asia from what is now taiwan.","indonesia | capital | jakarta indonesia | leadername | jusuf kalla bakso | country | indonesia","no related information" "the united states of america (u.s.a. or usa), commonly known as the united states (u.s. or us) or america, is a country primarily located in north america.it consists of 50 states, a federal district, five major unincorporated territories, nine minor outlying islands, and 326 indian reservations.the united states is the world's third-largest country by both land and total area.it shares land borders with canada to its north and with mexico to its south and has maritime borders with the bahamas, cuba, russia, and other nations.with a population of over 333 million, it is the most populous country in the americas and the third most populous in the world.the national capital of the united states is washington, d.c., and its most populous city and principal financial center is new york city.indigenous peoples have inhabited the americas for thousands of years.beginning in 1607, british colonization led to the establishment of the thirteen colonies in what is now the eastern united states.they quarreled with the british crown over taxation and political representation, leading to the american revolution and proceeding revolutionary war.the united states declared independence on july 4, 1776, becoming the first nation-state founded on enlightenment principles of unalienable natural rights, consent of the governed, and liberal democracy.during the nineteenth century, the united states political philosophy was influenced by the concept of manifest destiny, as the country expanded across the continent in a number of wars, land purchases, and treaties, eventually reaching the pacific ocean by the middle of the century.sectional division surrounding slavery in the southern united states led to the secession of the confederate states of america, which fought the remaining states of the union during the american civil war (1861–1865).with the union's victory and preservation, slavery was abolished nationally by the thirteenth amendment.by 1900, the united states had established itself as a world power, becoming the world's largest economy.after japan's attack on pearl harbor in 1941, the u.s. entered world war ii on the allied side.the aftermath of the war left the united states and the soviet union as the world's two superpowers and led to the cold war.during the cold war, both countries engaged in a struggle for ideological dominance but avoided direct military conflict.they also competed in the space race, which culminated in the 1969 landing of apollo 11, making the u.s. the first and only nation to ever land humans on the moon.with the soviet union's collapse and the subsequent end of the cold war in 1991, the united states emerged as the world's sole superpower.the united states government is a federal republic and a representative democracy with three separate branches of government.it has a bicameral national legislature composed of the house of representatives, a lower house;

"japan (japanese: 日本, nippon or nihon, and formally 日本国, nihonkoku) is an island country in east asia.it is situated in the northwest pacific ocean and is bordered on the west by the sea of japan, extending from the sea of okhotsk in the north toward the east china sea, philippine sea, and taiwan in the south.japan is a part of the ring of fire, and spans an archipelago of 14,125 islands, with the five main islands being hokkaido, honshu (the 'mainland'), shikoku, kyushu, and okinawa.tokyo is the nation's capital and largest city, followed by yokohama, osaka, nagoya, sapporo, fukuoka, kobe, and kyoto.japan is the eleventh most populous country in the world, as well as one of the most densely populated.about three-fourths of the country's terrain is mountainous, concentrating its highly urbanized population on narrow coastal plains.japan is divided into 47 administrative prefectures and eight traditional regions.the greater tokyo area is the most populous metropolitan area in the world.japan has the world's highest life expectancy, though it is experiencing a population decline.japan has been inhabited since the upper paleolithic period (30,000 bc).between the 4th and 9th centuries, the kingdoms of japan became unified under an emperor and the imperial court based in heian-kyō.beginning in the 12th century, political power was held by a series of military dictators (shōgun) and feudal lords (daimyō) and enforced by a class of warrior nobility (samurai).after a century-long period of civil war, the country was reunified in 1603 under the tokugawa shogunate, which enacted an isolationist foreign policy.in 1854, a united states fleet forced japan to open trade to the west, which led to the end of the shogunate and the restoration of imperial power in 1868.in the meiji period, the empire of japan adopted a western-modeled constitution and pursued a program of industrialization and modernization.amidst a rise in militarism and overseas colonization, japan invaded china in 1937 and entered world war ii as an axis power in 1941.after suffering defeat in the pacific war and two atomic bombings, japan surrendered in 1945 and came under a seven-year allied occupation, during which it adopted a new constitution.under the 1947 constitution, japan has maintained a unitary parliamentary constitutional monarchy with a bicameral legislature, the national diet.japan is a developed country and a great power.its economy is the world's third-largest by nominal gdp and the fourth-largest by ppp, with its per capita income ranking at 36th highest in the world.although japan has renounced its right to declare war, the country maintains self-defense forces that rank as one of the world's strongest militaries.a global leader in the automotive, robotics and electronics industries, the country has made significant contributions to science and technology.it is part of multiple major international and intergovernmental institutions.japan is considered a cultural superpower as the culture of japan is well known around the world, including its art, cuisine, film, music, and popular culture, which encompasses prominent manga, anime and video game industries.before 日本 was adopted in the early 8th century, the country was known in china as wa (倭, changed in japan around 757 to 和) and in japan by the endonym yamato.nippon, the original sino-japanese reading of the characters, is favored for official uses, including on banknotes and postage stamps.nihon is typically used in everyday speech and reflects shifts in japanese phonology

bordered on the west by the sea of japan, extending from the sea of okhotsk in the north toward the east china sea, philippine sea, and taiwan in the south.japan is a part of the ring of fire, and spans an archipelago of 14,125 islands, with the five main islands being hokkaido, honshu (the 'mainland'), shikoku, kyushu, and okinawa.tokyo is the nation's capital and largest city, followed by yokohama, osaka, nagoya, sapporo, fukuoka, kobe, and kyoto.japan is the eleventh most populous country in the world, as well as one of the most densely populated.about three-fourths of the country's terrain is mountainous, concentrating its highly urbanized population on narrow coastal plains.japan is divided into 47 administrative prefectures and eight traditional regions.the greater tokyo area is the most populous metropolitan area in the world.japan has the world's highest life expectancy, though it is experiencing a population decline.japan has been inhabited since the upper paleolithic period (30,000 bc).between the 4th and 9th centuries, the kingdoms of japan became unified under an emperor and the imperial court based in heian-kyō.beginning in the 12th century, political power was held by a series of military dictators (shōgun) and feudal lords (daimyō) and enforced by a class of warrior nobility (samurai).after a century-long period of civil war, the country was reunified in 1603 under the tokugawa shogunate, which enacted an isolationist foreign policy.in 1854, a united states fleet forced japan to open trade to the west, which led to the end of the shogunate and the restoration of imperial power in 1868.in the meiji period, the empire of japan adopted a western-modeled constitution and pursued a program of industrialization and modernization.amidst a rise in militarism and overseas colonization, japan invaded china in 1937 and entered world war ii as an axis power in 1941.after suffering defeat in the pacific war and two atomic bombings, japan surrendered in 1945 and came under a seven-year allied occupation, during which it adopted a new constitution.under the 1947 constitution, japan has maintained a unitary parliamentary constitutional monarchy with a bicameral legislature, the national diet.japan is a developed country and a great power.its economy is the world's third-largest by nominal gdp and the fourth-largest by ppp, with its per capita income ranking at 36th highest in the world.although japan has renounced its right to declare war, the country maintains self-defense forces that rank as one of the world's strongest militaries.a global leader in the automotive, robotics and electronics industries, the country has made significant contributions to science and technology.it is part of multiple major international and intergovernmental institutions.japan is considered a cultural superpower as the culture of japan is well known around the world, including its art, cuisine, film, music, and popular culture, which encompasses prominent manga, anime and video game industries.before 日本 was adopted in the early 8th century, the country was known in china as wa (倭, changed in japan around 757 to 和) and in japan by the endonym yamato.nippon, the original sino-japanese reading of the characters, is favored for official uses, including on banknotes and postage stamps.nihon is typically used in everyday speech and reflects shifts in japanese phonology during the edo period.the characters 日本 mean 'sun origin', which is the source of the popular western epithet 'land of the rising sun'.the name 'japan' is based

al-ḥamrāʼ ) is a palace and fortress complex located in granada, andalusia, spain.it is one of the most famous monuments of islamic architecture and one of the best-preserved palaces of the historic islamic world, in addition to containing notable examples of spanish renaissance architecture.the complex was begun in 1238 by muhammad i ibn al-ahmar, the first nasrid emir and founder of the emirate of granada, the last muslim state of al-andalus.it was built on the sabika hill, an outcrop of the sierra nevada which had been the site of earlier fortresses and of the 11th-century palace of samuel ibn naghrillah.later nasrid rulers continuously modified the site.the most significant construction campaigns, which gave the royal palaces much of their definitive character, took place in the 14th century during the reigns of yusuf i and muhammad v. after the conclusion of the christian reconquista in 1492, the site became the royal court of ferdinand and isabella (where christopher columbus received royal endorsement for his expedition), and the palaces were partially altered.in 1526, charles v commissioned a new renaissance-style palace in direct juxtaposition with the nasrid palaces, but it was left uncompleted in the early 17th century.after being allowed to fall into disrepair for centuries, with its buildings occupied by squatters, the alhambra was rediscovered following the defeat of napoleon i, whose troops destroyed parts of the site.the rediscoverers were first british intellectuals and then other american and northern european romantic travelers.the most influential of them was washington irving, whose tales of the alhambra (1832) brought international attention to the site.the alhambra was one of the first islamic monuments to become the object of modern scientific study and has been the subject of numerous restorations since the 19th century.it is now one of spain's major tourist attractions and a unesco world heritage site.during the nasrid era, the alhambra was a self-contained city separate from the rest of granada below.it contained most of the amenities of a muslim city such as a friday mosque, hammams (public baths), roads, houses, artisan workshops, a tannery, and a sophisticated water supply system.as a royal city and citadel, it contained at least six major palaces, most of them located along the northern edge where they commanded views over the albaicín quarter.the most famous and best-preserved are the mexuar, the comares palace, the palace of the lions, and the partal palace, which form the main attraction to visitors today.the other palaces are known from historical sources and from modern excavations.at the alhambra's western tip is the alcazaba fortress.multiple smaller towers and fortified gates are also located along the alhambra's walls.outside the alhambra walls and located nearby to the east is the generalife, a former nasrid country estate and summer palace accompanied by historic orchards and modern landscaped gardens.the architecture of the nasrid palaces reflects the tradition of moorish architecture developed over previous centuries.it is characterized by the use of the courtyard as a central space and basic unit around which other halls and rooms were organized.courtyards typically had water features at their center, such as a reflective pool or a fountain.decoration was focused on the inside of the building and was executed primarily with tile mosaics on lower walls and carved stucco on the upper walls.geometric patterns, vegetal motifs, and arabic inscriptions were the main types of decorative motifs.additionally, 'stalactite'-like sculpting, known as muqarnas, was used for three-dimensional features like vaulted ceilings.'the red one' (f.), the complete form of which

"american motors corporation (amc; commonly referred to as american motors) was an american automobile manufacturing company formed by the merger of nash-kelvinator corporation and hudson motor car company on may 1, 1954.at the time, it was the largest corporate merger in u.s. history.american motors' most similar competitors were those automakers that held similar annual sales levels such as studebaker, packard, kaiser motors, and willys-overland.their largest competitors were the big three—ford, general motors, and chrysler.american motors' production line included small cars - the rambler american, which began as the nash rambler in 1950, hornet, gremlin, and pacer; intermediate and full-sized cars, including the ambassador, rambler classic, rebel, and matador; muscle cars, including the marlin, amx, and javelin; and early four-wheel drive variants of the eagle and the jeep wagoneer, the first true crossovers in the u.s. market.regarded as 'a small company deft enough to exploit special market segments left untended by the giants', american motors was widely known for the design work of chief stylist dick teague, who 'had to make do with a much tighter budget than his counterparts at detroit's big three', but 'had a knack for making the most of his employer's investment'.after periods of intermittent independent success, renault acquired a major interest in american motors in 1979, and the company was ultimately acquired by chrysler in 1987.the new corporation would be called the american motors corporation.an earlier corporation with the same name, co-founded by louis chevrolet, had existed in plainfield, new jersey from 1916 through 1922 before merging into the bessemer–american motors corporation.the nash-kelvinator/hudson deal was a straight stock transfer (three shares of hudson listed at 11⅛, for two shares of american motors and one share of nash-kelvinator listed at 17⅜, for one share of american motors) and finalized in the spring of 1954, forming the fourth-biggest auto company in the u.s. with assets of us$355 million and more than $100 million in working capital.the new company retained hudson ceo a.e.barit as a consultant and he took a seat on the board of directors.nash's george w. mason became president and ceo.mason, the architect of the merger, believed that the survival of the u.s.'s remaining independent automakers was dependent on their joining in one multiple-brand company capable of challenging the big three as an equal.the 'frantic 1953–54 ford/gm price war' had a devastating impact on the remaining 'independent' automakers.the reasons for the merger between nash and hudson included helping cut costs and strengthen their sales organizations to meet the intense competition expected from autos' big three.one quick result from the merger was the doubling up with nash on purchasing and production, allowing hudson to cut prices an average of $155 on the wasp line, and up to $204 on the more expensive hornet models.after the merger, amc had its first profitable quarter during the second three months of 1955, earning $1,592,307, compared to a loss of $3,848,667 during the same period in the previous year.mason also entered into informal discussions with james j. nance of packard to outline his strategic vision.interim plans were made for american motors to buy packard ultramatic automatic transmissions and packard v8 engines for certain american motors products.in july 1954, packard acquired studebaker.the new studebaker-packard corporation (s-p) made the new 320 cu in (5.2 l) packard v8 engine and packard's ultramatic automatic transmission available to american motors for its 1955 nash ambassador and hudson hornet models.when mason died in 1954, george w. romney succeeded him.ironically, romney had once been offered nance's job.in 1948, romney received offers from packard for the post of chief operating officer and from nash for the number two position in the company.","american motors | successor | eagle automobile amc matador | manufacturer | american motors american motors | keyperson | roy d chapin jr","american motors corporation (amc; commonly referred to as american motors) was an american automobile manufacturing company formed by the merger of nash-kelvinator corporation and hudson motor car company on may 1, 1954.american motors' production line included small cars - the rambler american, which began as the nash rambler in 1950, hornet, gremlin, and pacer; intermediate and full-sized cars, including the ambassador, rambler classic, rebel, and matador; muscle cars, including the marlin, amx, and javelin; and early four-wheel drive variants of the eagle and the jeep wagoneer, the first true crossovers in the u.s. market."

"bandeja paisa (paisa refers to a person from the paisa region and bandeja is spanish for platter), with variations known as bandeja de arriero, bandeja montañera, or bandeja antioqueña, is one of the most representative meals in colombian cuisine, especially of the antioquia department and the paisa region, as well as with the colombian coffee-growers axis (the departments of caldas, quindío and risaralda), and part of valle del cauca and the northwest of tolima.the main characteristic of this dish is the generous amount and variety of food in a traditional bandeja paisa: red beans cooked with pork, white rice, carne molida (ground meat), chicharrón, fried egg, plantain (plátano maduro), chorizo, arepa, hogao sauce, black pudding (morcilla), avocado and lemon.it is served in a platter or a tray.in the 19th century, french and british colonialists also brought their cuisine with them.the current form and presentation of the paisa platter is relatively recent.there are no references in the food writing about this dish before 1950.it is probably an interpretation of the local restaurants of simpler peasant dishes.one of its most prominent features is the juxtaposition of native american and european ingredients, which is also observed in other mestizo dishes of latin american cuisine, such as venezuelan pabellón criollo or costa rican gallo pinto.side dishes include mazamorra (a maize-derived beverage similar to atole) with milk and ground panela.there are several variants of the dish all over the country with deletion or addition of ingredients, which cannot be recognized as bandeja paisa in the strictest sense.some antioquian restaurants offer an 'extended' bandeja paisa, also known as 'seven meats platter', which contains, besides the aforementioned ingredients, grilled steak, grilled pork and liver.a diet-friendly version of the dish is very popular in bogotá, which replaces pork with grilled chicken breast, black pudding with salad and chorizo with a wiener.a number of people opposed this designation, arguing that only a small percentage of the colombian population consumes it on a regular basis and that it originated in a single region of colombia (antioquia).however, the suggested alternative, sancocho, is not a distinctively colombian dish, as it is known and enjoyed in many other countries, such as cuba, venezuela, the canary islands, puerto rico, the dominican republic and panama.due to the widespread ubiquity of sancocho, often colombian ajiaco is instead considered the most indicative colombian dish.nonetheless, the commercial colombian tourism industry has pushed ahead without official government sanction by emblazoning ads, menus, and brochure information with imagery of the bandeja paisa as the single most typical colombian dish.","bandeja paisa | ingredient | rice bandeja paisa | mainingredients | red beans pork belly white rice ground meat chicharon fried egg plantain patacones chorizo arepa hogao sauce black pudding morcilla avocado and lemon bandeja paisa | region | paisa region bandeja paisa | country | colombian cuisine","bandeja paisa (paisa refers to a person from the paisa region and bandeja is spanish for platter), with variations known as bandeja de arriero, bandeja montañera, or bandeja antioqueña, is one of the most representative meals in colombian cuisine, especially of the antioquia department and the paisa region, as well as with the colombian coffee-growers axis (the departments of caldas, quindío and risaralda), and part of valle del cauca and the northwest of tolima.the main characteristic of this dish is the generous amount and variety of food in a traditional bandeja paisa: red beans cooked with pork, white rice, carne molida (ground meat), chicharrón, fried egg, plantain (plátano maduro), chorizo, arepa, hogao sauce, black pudding (morcilla), avocado and lemon.in the 19th century, french and british colonialists also brought their cuisine with them.the current form and presentation of the paisa platter is relatively recent.there are several variants of the dish all over the country with deletion or addition of ingredients, which cannot be recognized as bandeja paisa in the strictest sense.some antioquian restaurants offer an 'extended' bandeja paisa, also known as 'seven meats platter', which contains, besides the aforementioned ingredients, grilled steak, grilled pork and liver.nonetheless, the commercial colombian tourism industry has pushed ahead without official government sanction by emblazoning ads, menus, and brochure information with imagery of the bandeja paisa as the single most typical colombian dish."

"batagor (abbreviated from baso tahu goréng, sundanese: 'fried bakso [and] tofu') is a sundanese dish from indonesia, and popular in southeast asia, consisting of fried fish dumplings, usually served with peanut sauce.it is traditionally made from minced tenggiri (spanish mackerel), although other types of seafood such as tuna, mackerel, and prawn may also be used.the fish paste is subsequently stuffed into wonton skins or filled into tofu, and then deep fried in palm oil.street-side batagor fried dumplings are usually served with fried tofu and finger-shaped fried otak-otak fish cakes.these batagor components are cut into bite-size pieces and topped with peanut sauce, kecap manis (sweet soy sauce), sambal (chili paste), and lime juice.as a fried food, batagor generally have a crispy and crunchy texture; since its serving method is identical, batagor and siomay are often sold by the same vendor, with batagor being offered as a crispy variation of siomay.however, it is most strongly associated with the west java city of bandung.the dish is influenced by chinese indonesian cuisine, and might be derived from siomay, with the main difference being that batagor is fried instead of steamed.it has been readily adapted into local sundanese cuisine, and today, most batagor sellers are sundanese.batagor began appearing in various indonesian cities throughout the country in the 1980s, and was first made in 1968 in bandung by migrants from purwokerto named haji isan, it is said that the origin of batagor is a modification of an extinct fried food from purwokerto.batagor is characterized like other purwokerto specialties which are mostly fried and served with peanut sauce, such as kampel (fried ketupat).according to legend, batagor was created as a way to salvage unsold bakso meatballs.it is said that one day the bakso did not sell well, and a seller was stuck with too many leftovers.in order to cut his losses, he then came up with the idea to grind the meatballs, stuff them into tofu, deep fry them, and serve them with peanut sauce in a fashion similar to siomay or ngo hiang.this created a new dish of bakso tahu goreng ('fried bakso [and] tofu'), abbreviated as 'batagor'.the soup consists of a clear chicken broth with the addition of various ingredients such as pepper, sugar, salt, leek, and celery.chili sauce, tomato sauce, and lime can also be added to add more flavor into the soup.batagor is popular for its savory flavor, crispy texture of its deep fried wonton skin and tofu, and its sweet and savoury peanut sauce.as of 2018, batagor is often sold at around 10,000 indonesian rupiahs per portion at modest street-side vendors.","batagor | country | indonesia batagor | ingredient | peanut sauce batagor | dishvariation | siomay batagor | mainingredients | fried fish dumpling with tofu and vegetables in peanut sauce","batagor (abbreviated from baso tahu goréng, sundanese: 'fried bakso [and] tofu') is a sundanese dish from indonesia, and popular in southeast asia, consisting of fried fish dumplings, usually served with peanut sauce.the fish paste is subsequently stuffed into wonton skins or filled into tofu, and then deep fried in palm oil.street-side batagor fried dumplings are usually served with fried tofu and finger-shaped fried otak-otak fish cakes.these batagor components are cut into bite-size pieces and topped with peanut sauce, kecap manis (sweet soy sauce), sambal (chili paste), and lime juice.as a fried food, batagor generally have a crispy and crunchy texture; since its serving method is identical, batagor and siomay are often sold by the same vendor, with batagor being offered as a crispy variation of siomay.the dish is influenced by chinese indonesian cuisine, and might be derived from siomay, with the main difference being that batagor is fried instead of steamed.it has been readily adapted into local sundanese cuisine, and today, most batagor sellers are sundanese.batagor began appearing in various indonesian cities throughout the country in the 1980s, and was first made in 1968 in bandung by migrants from purwokerto named haji isan, it is said that the origin of batagor is a modification of an extinct fried food from purwokerto.batagor is characterized like other purwokerto specialties which are mostly fried and served with peanut sauce, such as kampel (fried ketupat).this created a new dish of bakso tahu goreng ('fried bakso [and] tofu'), abbreviated as 'batagor'.chili sauce, tomato sauce, and lime can also be added to add more flavor into the soup.batagor is popular for its savory flavor, crispy texture of its deep fried wonton skin and tofu, and its sweet and savoury peanut sauce.as of 2018, batagor is often sold at around 10,000 indonesian rupiahs per portion at modest street-side vendors."

"argentina (spanish pronunciation: [aɾxenˈtina] (listen)), officially the argentine republic (spanish: república argentina), is a country in the southern half of south america.argentina covers an area of 2,780,400 km2 (1,073,500 sq mi), making it the second-largest country in south america after brazil, the fourth-largest country in the americas, and the eighth-largest country in the world.it shares the bulk of the southern cone with chile to the west, and is also bordered by bolivia and paraguay to the north, brazil to the northeast, uruguay and the south atlantic ocean to the east, and the drake passage to the south.argentina is a federal state subdivided into twenty-three provinces, and one autonomous city, which is the federal capital and largest city of the nation, buenos aires.the provinces and the capital have their own constitutions, but exist under a federal system.argentina claims sovereignty over the falkland islands, south georgia and the south sandwich islands, and a part of antarctica.the earliest recorded human presence in modern-day argentina dates back to the paleolithic period.the inca empire expanded to the northwest of the country in pre-columbian times.the country has its roots in spanish colonization of the region during the 16th century.argentina rose as the successor state of the viceroyalty of the río de la plata, a spanish overseas viceroyalty founded in 1776.the declaration and fight for independence (1810–1818) was followed by an extended civil war that lasted until 1861, culminating in the country's reorganization as a federation.the country thereafter enjoyed relative peace and stability, with several waves of european immigration, mainly italians and spaniards, influencing its culture and demography.the almost-unparalleled increase in prosperity led to argentina becoming the seventh-wealthiest nation in the world by the early 20th century.in 1896, argentina's gdp per capita surpassed that of the united states and was consistently in the top ten before at least 1920.although it remained among the fifteen richest countries for several decades, following the great depression in the 1930s, argentina descended into political instability and economic decline that pushed it back into underdevelopment, being currently ranked 62nd in the world.following the death of president juan perón in 1974, his widow and vice president, isabel perón, ascended to the presidency, before being overthrown in 1976.the following military junta, which was supported by the united states, persecuted and murdered thousands of political critics, activists, and leftists in the dirty war, a period of state terrorism and civil unrest that lasted until the election of raúl alfonsín as president in 1983.argentina is a regional power, and retains its historic status as a middle power in international affairs.a major non-nato ally of the united states, argentina is a developing country with the second-highest hdi (human development index) in latin america after chile.it maintains the second-largest economy in south america, and is a member of g-15 and g20.argentina is also a founding member of the united nations, world bank, world trade organization, mercosur, community of latin american and caribbean states and the organization of ibero-american states.argentina (masculine argentino) means in italian '(made) of silver, silver coloured', derived from the latin 'argentum' for silver.in italian, the adjective or the proper noun is often used in an autonomous way as a substantive and replaces it and it is said l'argentina.the name argentina was probably first given by the venetian and genoese navigators, such as giovanni caboto.in spanish and portuguese, the words for 'silver' are respectively plata and prata and '(made) of silver' is plateado and prateado.argentina was first associated with the silver mountains legend, widespread among the first european explorers of the la plata basin.the first written use of the name in spanish can be traced to la argentina, a 1602 poem by martín del barco centenera describing the region.","argentina | capital | buenos aires argentina | leadername | mauricio macri ara veinticinco de mayo v-2 | country | argentina","argentina is a federal state subdivided into twenty-three provinces, and one autonomous city, which is the federal capital and largest city of the nation, buenos aires.the country thereafter enjoyed relative peace and stability, with several waves of european immigration, mainly italians and spaniards, influencing its culture and demography.the almost-unparalleled increase in prosperity led to argentina becoming the seventh-wealthiest nation in the world by the early 20th century."

"indonesia, officially the republic of indonesia, is a country in southeast asia and oceania between the indian and pacific oceans.it consists of over 17,000 islands, including sumatra, java, sulawesi, and parts of borneo and new guinea.indonesia is the world's largest archipelagic state and the 14th-largest country by area, at 1,904,569 square kilometres (735,358 square miles).with around 280 million people, indonesia is the world's fourth-most populous country and the most populous muslim-majority country.java, the world's most populous island, is home to more than half of the country's population.as the world's third largest democracy, indonesia is a presidential republic with an elected legislature.it has 38 provinces, of which nine have special status.the country's capital, jakarta, is the world's second-most populous urban area.indonesia shares land borders with papua new guinea, east timor, and the eastern part of malaysia, as well as maritime borders with singapore, vietnam, thailand, the philippines, australia, palau, and india.despite its large population and densely populated regions, indonesia has vast areas of wilderness that support one of the world's highest level of biodiversity.the indonesian archipelago has been a valuable region for trade since at least the seventh century, when the srivijaya kingdom formed trade links with china.indonesian history has been influenced by foreign powers drawn to its natural resources.under indian influence, hindu and buddhist kingdoms flourished from the early centuries ce.muslim traders later brought islam, and european powers fought one another to monopolise trade in the spice islands of maluku during the age of discovery.following three and a half centuries of dutch colonialism, indonesia secured its independence after world war ii.indonesia's history has since been turbulent, with challenges posed by natural disasters, corruption, separatism, a democratisation process, and periods of rapid economic change.indonesia consists of thousands of distinct native ethnic and hundreds of linguistic groups, with javanese being the largest.a shared identity has developed with the motto 'bhinneka tunggal ika' ('unity in diversity' literally, 'many, yet one'), defined by a national language, cultural diversity, religious pluralism within a muslim-majority population, and a history of colonialism and rebellion against it.the economy of indonesia is the world's 16th-largest by nominal gdp and the 7th-largest by ppp.it is a regional power and is considered a middle power in global affairs.the country is a member of several multilateral organisations, including the united nations, world trade organization, g20, and a founding member of the non-aligned movement, association of southeast asian nations, east asia summit, d-8 and the organisation of islamic cooperation.the name dates back to the 19th century, far predating the formation of independent indonesia.in 1850, george windsor earl, an english ethnologist, proposed the terms indunesians—and, his preference, malayunesians—for the inhabitants of the 'indian archipelago or malay archipelago'.in the same publication, one of his students, james richardson logan, used indonesia as a synonym for indian archipelago.dutch academics writing in east indies publications were reluctant to use indonesia.they preferred malay archipelago (dutch: maleische archipel); the netherlands east indies (nederlandsch oost indië), popularly indië; the east (de oost); and insulinde.after 1900, indonesia became more common in academic circles outside the netherlands, and native nationalist groups adopted it for political expression.adolf bastian of the university of berlin popularized the name through his book indonesien oder die inseln des malayischen archipels, 1884–1894.the first native scholar to use the name was ki hajar dewantara when in 1913, he established a press bureau in the netherlands, indonesisch pers-bureau.homo sapiens reached the region around 43,000 bce.austronesian peoples, who form the majority of the modern population, migrated to southeast asia from what is now taiwan.","indonesia | language | indonesian language indonesia | leadername | jusuf kalla bakso | region | indonesia bakso | country | chinese cuisine","the indonesian archipelago has been a valuable region for trade since at least the seventh century, when the srivijaya kingdom formed trade links with china.indonesian history has been influenced by foreign powers drawn to its natural resources."

program of the 1950s.the atlas ii was a direct evolution of the atlas i, featuring longer first stage tanks, higher-performing engines, and the option for strap-on solid rocket boosters.it was designed to launch payloads into low earth orbit, geosynchronous transfer orbit or geosynchronous orbit.sixty-three launches of the atlas ii, iia and iias models were carried out between 1991 and 2004; all sixty-three launches were successes, making the atlas ii a highly reliable space launch system.the atlas line was continued by the atlas iii, used between 2000 and 2005, and the atlas v which is still in use.additional commercial and u.s. government sales resulted in production increases leading to greater than 60 vehicles being produced and launched.atlas ii was developed from the atlas i and featured numerous upgrades over that vehicle.atlas ii was launched from launch complex 36 at cape canaveral space force station in florida as well as space launch complex 3e at vandenberg space force base in california.all launches were successful.the increased thrust, engine efficiency, and propellant capacity enabled the vehicle to lift payloads of 6,100 pounds (2,767 kg) into geostationary transfer orbit (gto), or more on later atlas ii variants.atlas ii also featured lower-cost electronics, an improved flight computer, and longer propellant tanks than its predecessor, atlas i.the stage was powered by 3 rs-56 rocket engines (derived from the rs-27 main engine of the delta ii rocket) burning 156 t (344,000 lb) of rp-1 and liquid oxygen.the two booster engines were the rs-56-oba variants (the complete assembly of both engines and the aft skirt was referred to as the ma-5a), with high thrust but moderate efficiency.the sustainer (center) engine was the rs-56-osa variant, featuring much less thrust but higher efficiency at high altitudes than the booster engines.the vernier engines used on the first stage of the atlas i (and all previous atlas models) were replaced by a hydrazine-fueled roll control system on atlas ii.this system, mounted on the interstage between the first and second stages, utilized small thrusters to control the vehicle's roll.compared to atlas i, the atlas ii first stage was 2.7 m (8 ft 10 in) taller.the atlas ii was the last atlas rocket to use the 'stage-and-a-half' technique, where it ignited all 3 rs-56 engines at liftoff and then jettisoned the 2 rs-56-oba side engines and their support structure during ascent.the two rs-56-oba engines were integrated into a single unit called the ma-5a and shared a common gas generator.they burned for approximately 164 seconds before being jettisoned, when acceleration reached approximately 5.0-5.5 g. the central sustainer engine on the first stage, an rs-56-osa, would burn for an additional 125 seconds after their jettison.it featured better efficiency at high altitudes than the rs-56-obas.the first stage also had the option to be fitted with 4 castor 4a solid rocket boosters as part of the iias version, each providing an additional 478.3 kn (107,500 lbf) of thrust for 56 seconds.the first two boosters were ignited at liftoff, and the other two were ignited after the first two burnt out.both pairs of boosters were jettisoned shortly after their respective burns.centaur ii featured 2 rl-10a-3-3a engines, burning liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen.it featured propellant tanks 0.9 meters longer than its predecessor, centaur i, giving the stage more propellant and therefore higher performance.due to the super cold propellants inside centaur, foam insulation was installed onto the outer metal skin on the stage to help mitigate propellant boiloff inside the tank.","atlas ii | countryorigin | united states united states | ethnicgroup | native

country in east asia.it is situated in the northwest pacific ocean and is bordered on the west by the sea of japan, extending from the sea of okhotsk in the north toward the east china sea, philippine sea, and taiwan in the south.japan is a part of the ring of fire, and spans an archipelago of 14,125 islands, with the five main islands being hokkaido, honshu (the 'mainland'), shikoku, kyushu, and okinawa.tokyo is the nation's capital and largest city, followed by yokohama, osaka, nagoya, sapporo, fukuoka, kobe, and kyoto.japan is the eleventh most populous country in the world, as well as one of the most densely populated.about three-fourths of the country's terrain is mountainous, concentrating its highly urbanized population on narrow coastal plains.japan is divided into 47 administrative prefectures and eight traditional regions.the greater tokyo area is the most populous metropolitan area in the world.japan has the world's highest life expectancy, though it is experiencing a population decline.japan has been inhabited since the upper paleolithic period (30,000 bc).between the 4th and 9th centuries, the kingdoms of japan became unified under an emperor and the imperial court based in heian-kyō.beginning in the 12th century, political power was held by a series of military dictators (shōgun) and feudal lords (daimyō) and enforced by a class of warrior nobility (samurai).after a century-long period of civil war, the country was reunified in 1603 under the tokugawa shogunate, which enacted an isolationist foreign policy.in 1854, a united states fleet forced japan to open trade to the west, which led to the end of the shogunate and the restoration of imperial power in 1868.in the meiji period, the empire of japan adopted a western-modeled constitution and pursued a program of industrialization and modernization.amidst a rise in militarism and overseas colonization, japan invaded china in 1937 and entered world war ii as an axis power in 1941.after suffering defeat in the pacific war and two atomic bombings, japan surrendered in 1945 and came under a seven-year allied occupation, during which it adopted a new constitution.under the 1947 constitution, japan has maintained a unitary parliamentary constitutional monarchy with a bicameral legislature, the national diet.japan is a developed country and a great power.its economy is the world's third-largest by nominal gdp and the fourth-largest by ppp, with its per capita income ranking at 36th highest in the world.although japan has renounced its right to declare war, the country maintains self-defense forces that rank as one of the world's strongest militaries.a global leader in the automotive, robotics and electronics industries, the country has made significant contributions to science and technology.it is part of multiple major international and intergovernmental institutions.japan is considered a cultural superpower as the culture of japan is well known around the world, including its art, cuisine, film, music, and popular culture, which encompasses prominent manga, anime and video game industries.before 日本 was adopted in the early 8th century, the country was known in china as wa (倭, changed in japan around 757 to 和) and in japan by the endonym yamato.nippon, the original sino-japanese reading of the characters, is favored for official uses, including on banknotes and postage stamps.nihon is typically used in everyday speech and reflects shifts in japanese phonology during the edo period.the characters 日本 mean 'sun origin', which is the source of the popular western epithet 'land of the rising sun'.the name 'japan' is based on chinese pronunciations of 日本 and was introduced to european languages through early trade.","java |

word.the sound is a hard 'da' in the telugu language and the 'ra' sound would be an incorrect pronunciation.the sound is the retroflex flap [ɽ], which is written in hindi with the devanagari letter ड़, and in urdu with letter ڑ.however, in the international alphabet of sanskrit transliteration, the hindi letter ड़ is transliterated as <ṛ>, popular or non-standard transliterations of hindi use for this sound, because etymologically, it derives from ड /ɖ/.the occurrence of this consonant in the word pakora has given rise to two common alternative spellings in english: pakoda, which reflects its etymology, and pakora, which reflects its phonology.early known recipes come from manasollasa (1130 ce) cookbook where it mentions 'parika' (pakoda) and method of preparing it with vegetables and gram flour.lokopakara (1025 ce) cookbook also mentions unique pakora recipe where gram flour is pressed into fish-shaped moulds and fried in mustard oil.common varieties of pakora use onion, masoor dal (lentil), suji (semolina), chicken, arbi root and leaves, eggplant, potato, chili pepper, spinach, paneer, cauliflower, mint, plantain or baby corn.the batter is most commonly made with gram flour or mixture of gram flour and rice flour but variants can use other flours, such as buckwheat flour.the spices used in the batter are up to the cook and may be chosen due to local tradition or availability; often these include fresh and dried spices such as chilli, fenugreek and coriander.they are also offered with masala chai to guests at indian wedding ceremonies.pakoda may be interpreted in these states as deep fried balls of finely chopped onions, green chilis, and spices mixed in gram flour.","bhajji | country | india india | leadername | sumitra mahajan bhajji | region | karnataka

ring of fire, and spans an archipelago of 14,125 islands, with the five main islands being hokkaido, honshu (the 'mainland'), shikoku, kyushu, and okinawa.tokyo is the nation's capital and largest city, followed by yokohama, osaka, nagoya, sapporo, fukuoka, kobe, and kyoto.japan is the eleventh most populous country in the world, as well as one of the most densely populated.about three-fourths of the country's terrain is mountainous, concentrating its highly urbanized population on narrow coastal plains.japan is divided into 47 administrative prefectures and eight traditional regions.the greater tokyo area is the most populous metropolitan area in the world.japan has the world's highest life expectancy, though it is experiencing a population decline.japan has been inhabited since the upper paleolithic period (30,000 bc).between the 4th and 9th centuries, the kingdoms of japan became unified under an emperor and the imperial court based in heian-kyō.beginning in the 12th century, political power was held by a series of military dictators (shōgun) and feudal lords (daimyō) and enforced by a class of warrior nobility (samurai).after a century-long period of civil war, the country was reunified in 1603 under the tokugawa shogunate, which enacted an isolationist foreign policy.in 1854, a united states fleet forced japan to open trade to the west, which led to the end of the shogunate and the restoration of imperial power in 1868.in the meiji period, the empire of japan adopted a western-modeled constitution and pursued a program of industrialization and modernization.amidst a rise in militarism and overseas colonization, japan invaded china in 1937 and entered world war ii as an axis power in 1941.after suffering defeat in the pacific war and two atomic bombings, japan surrendered in 1945 and came under a seven-year allied occupation, during which it adopted a new constitution.under the 1947 constitution, japan has maintained a unitary parliamentary constitutional monarchy with a bicameral legislature, the national diet.japan is a developed country and a great power.its economy is the world's third-largest by nominal gdp and the fourth-largest by ppp, with its per capita income ranking at 36th highest in the world.although japan has renounced its right to declare war, the country maintains self-defense forces that rank as one of the world's strongest militaries.a global leader in the automotive, robotics and electronics industries, the country has made significant contributions to science and technology.it is part of multiple major international and intergovernmental institutions.japan is considered a cultural superpower as the culture of japan is well known around the world, including its art, cuisine, film, music, and popular culture, which encompasses prominent manga, anime and video game industries.before 日本 was adopted in the early 8th century, the country was known in china as wa (倭, changed in japan around 757 to 和) and in japan by the endonym yamato.nippon, the original sino-japanese reading of the characters, is favored for official uses, including on banknotes and postage stamps.nihon is typically used in everyday speech and reflects shifts in japanese phonology during the edo period.the characters 日本 mean 'sun origin', which is the source of the popular western epithet 'land of the rising sun'.the name 'japan' is based on chinese pronunciations of 日本 and was introduced to european languages through early trade.","java | ethnicgroup | banyumasan people singapore | leadername |

opened in 1994 and was named after the country's first president, saparmyrat niyazov.the new airport terminal opened in september 2016, after being completely redesigned and rebuilt and after the south runway was moved and lengthened to parallel the north runway.for this route, four-passenger junkers f.13 aircraft were purchased in germany, as well as soviet four-passenger kalinin k-4 aircraft.eight aircraft served this airline.later, in 1932, newer soviet aircraft were purchased for the transport of passengers.the kalinin k-5 aircraft seated six, and the tupolev ant-9 aircraft had twelve seats.with this replenishment of the turkmen ssr air fleet, in 1932 an air division was formed at chardzhou airport that directly served the chardzhou-tashauz route, without stops in other settlements.in soviet times, the airport was used exclusively for servicing flights within the ussr.currently, in addition to the aircraft of the local airline fleet, the airport serves the planes of several foreign airlines of the world, performing both passenger and cargo flights.in soviet times, the airport was used exclusively for domestic flights.as part of saparmurat niyazov's aspiration to transform turkmenistan into 'the new kuwait', he sought to construct a distinctive airport.this zeal resulted in the control tower being constructed on the wrong side of the runway.the 'gaudy new terminal' now blocked the view of air traffic controllers as they guided pilots.the builders warned him of this, however, he responded that, 'it looks better this way.'the building was dismantled in 2013.polimeks, a turkish construction company active in turkmenistan since the late-1990s, was declared winner of the tender.the new airport was opened on 17 september 2016 by president gurbanguly berdimuhamedow.the project cost $2.3 billion (€1.7 billion) and features a highly unusual terminal design in the shape of a falcon.the new airport has capacity to serve 14 million passengers per year at a rate of 1,600 passengers per hour.the airport covers 350,000 m2 and includes a passenger terminal, vip terminal, cargo terminal with capacity to handle 200,000 tonnes of freight per year, a new air traffic control tower (atct), a maintenance hangar for three narrow-body aircraft, new fueling stations, catering, fire brigade, flight simulation, repair and maintenance buildings, parking space for 3,000 cars, a civil aviation school as well as a medical center.the airport has also a second 3,800-meter long runway to serve wide-body, double-deck jet airliners such as the airbus a380 and boeing 747-8.all services of the airport work around the clock.the airport includes passenger waiting rooms, immigration, customs, border control, a 24-hour reference service, vip and cip rooms, a

and also most profitable.as a result, the boxy two-door hardtop body design was replaced with a completely different and sleeker coupe model 'to contend with the bull market for plush mid-size coupes that sprang up after the end of the muscle car era'.it also featured a design that was praised by owners along with their complaints about its low roofline.the design of the matador coupe has been described as 'polarizing' as well as being 'an evocative, swoopy coupe that perfectly captured the design ethos of the era.'factory-backed first-generation hardtops and second-generation coupes competed in nascar stock car racing from 1972 through 1975.drivers included mark donohue and bobby allison winning several races including the 1975 southern 500 at darlington.the amc matador captured five first-place wins.matadors in police livery were featured in television shows and movies during the 1970s.the matador coupe was a featured car and also a scale model of it was used as a flying car in the man with the golden gun, a james bond film released in 1974.","amc matador | alternativename | vam classic amc matador | assembly | thames new zealand amc matador | bodystyle | station wagon amc matador | engine | amc v8 engine","the amc matador is a series of american automobiles that were manufactured and marketed by american motors corporation (amc) across two generations, 1971–1973 (mid-size) and 1974–1978 (full-size), in two-door hardtop (first generation) and coupe (second generation) versions, as well as in four-door sedan and station wagon body styles.with its second generation, the matador became amc's largest automobile after the ambassador, which shared the same platform, was discontinued after the 1974 model year.with a facelift and a new name, the amc matadors were available as a two-door hardtop, four-door sedan, and station wagon body styles.although related directly to the previous rebel models, amc began promoting the matador as more than a change in name with a slight facelift, to reposition the line in the highly competitive intermediate-car segment among consumers.matadors became popular with government agencies and military units as well as police departments in the u.s. and the sedans and wagons were typically equipped with 360 cu in (5.9 l) or 401 cu in (6.6 l) v8 engines.they continued to be in service longer than normal because of favorable field reports.the matador received a redesign in 1974, in part to meet new safety and crash requirements.the amc matador captured five first-place wins.matadors in police livery were featured in television shows and movies during the 1970s."

"belgium, officially the kingdom of belgium, is a country in northwestern europe.the country is bordered by the netherlands to the north, germany to the east, luxembourg to the southeast, france to the southwest, and the north sea to the northwest.it covers an area of 30,528 km2 (11,787 sq mi) and has a population of more than 11.5 million, making it the 22nd most densely populated country in the world and the 6th most densely populated country in europe, with a density of 376/km2 (970/sq mi).belgium is part of an area known as the low countries, historically a somewhat larger region than the benelux group of states, as it also included parts of northern france.the capital and largest city is brussels; other major cities are antwerp, ghent, charleroi, liège, bruges, namur, and leuven.belgium is a sovereign state and a federal constitutional monarchy with a parliamentary system.its institutional organization is complex and is structured on both regional and linguistic grounds.it is divided into three highly autonomous regions: the flemish region (flanders) in the north, the walloon region (wallonia) in the south, and the brussels-capital region.brussels is the smallest and most densely populated region, as well as the richest region in terms of gdp per capita.belgium is also home to two main linguistic communities: the flemish community, which constitutes about 60 percent of the population, and the french community, which constitutes about 40 percent of the population.a small german-speaking community, numbering around one percent, exists in the east cantons.the brussels-capital region is officially bilingual in french and dutch, although french is the dominant language.belgium's linguistic diversity and related political conflicts are reflected in its complex system of governance, made up of six different governments.since the middle ages, belgium's central location near several major rivers has meant that the area has been relatively prosperous, connected commercially and politically to its bigger neighbours.the country as it exists today was established following the 1830 belgian revolution, when it seceded from the united kingdom of the netherlands, which had incorporated the southern netherlands (which comprised most of modern-day belgium) after the congress of vienna in 1815.the name chosen for the new state is derived from the latin word belgium, used in julius caesar's 'gallic wars', to describe a nearby region in the period around 55 bce.belgium has also been the battleground of european powers, earning the moniker the 'battlefield of europe', a reputation reinforced in the 20th century by both world wars.belgium participated in the industrial revolution, and during the course of the 20th century, possessed a number of colonies in africa.between 1885 and 1908, the congo free state, which was privately owned by king leopold ii of belgium, was characterized by widespread atrocities and disease, leading to a population decline of millions; amid public outcry in europe, belgium annexed the territory as a colony.the belgian colonial empire gained independence between 1960 and 1962.the second half of the 20th century was marked by rising tensions between the dutch-speaking and the french-speaking citizens fueled by differences in language and culture and the unequal economic development of flanders and wallonia.this continuing antagonism has led to several far-reaching state reforms, resulting in the transition from a unitary to a federal arrangement between 1970 and 1993.despite the reforms, tensions between the groups have remained, if not increased; there is significant separatism particularly among the flemish; controversial language laws exist such as the municipalities with language facilities; and the formation of a coalition government took 18 months following the june 2010 federal election, a world record.","belgium | leadername | charles michel belgium | leadername | philippe of belgium antwerp international airport | cityserved | antwerp belgium | language | german language antwerp | country | belgium","belgium, officially the kingdom of belgium, is a country in northwestern europe.belgium is part of an area known as the low countries, historically a somewhat larger region than the benelux group of states, as it also included parts of northern france.the capital and largest city is brussels; other major cities are antwerp, ghent, charleroi, liège, bruges, namur, and leuven.belgium is a sovereign state and a federal constitutional monarchy with a parliamentary system.belgium is also home to two main linguistic communities: the flemish community, which constitutes about 60 percent of the population, and the french community, which constitutes about 40 percent of the population.belgium's linguistic diversity and related political conflicts are reflected in its complex system of governance, made up of six different governments.since the middle ages, belgium's central location near several major rivers has meant that the area has been relatively prosperous, connected commercially and politically to its bigger neighbours.the country as it exists today was established following the 1830 belgian revolution, when it seceded from the united kingdom of the netherlands, which had incorporated the southern netherlands (which comprised most of modern-day belgium) after the congress of vienna in 1815.the name chosen for the new state is derived from the latin word belgium, used in julius caesar's 'gallic wars', to describe a nearby region in the period around 55 bce.belgium has also been the battleground of european powers, earning the moniker the 'battlefield of europe', a reputation reinforced in the 20th century by both world wars.belgium participated in the industrial revolution, and during the course of the 20th century, possessed a number of colonies in africa.between 1885 and 1908, the congo free state, which was privately owned by king leopold ii of belgium, was characterized by widespread atrocities and disease, leading to a population decline of millions; amid public outcry in europe, belgium annexed the territory as a colony."

"american motors corporation (amc; commonly referred to as american motors) was an american automobile manufacturing company formed by the merger of nash-kelvinator corporation and hudson motor car company on may 1, 1954.at the time, it was the largest corporate merger in u.s. history.american motors' most similar competitors were those automakers that held similar annual sales levels such as studebaker, packard, kaiser motors, and willys-overland.their largest competitors were the big three—ford, general motors, and chrysler.american motors' production line included small cars - the rambler american, which began as the nash rambler in 1950, hornet, gremlin, and pacer; intermediate and full-sized cars, including the ambassador, rambler classic, rebel, and matador; muscle cars, including the marlin, amx, and javelin; and early four-wheel drive variants of the eagle and the jeep wagoneer, the first true crossovers in the u.s. market.regarded as 'a small company deft enough to exploit special market segments left untended by the giants', american motors was widely known for the design work of chief stylist dick teague, who 'had to make do with a much tighter budget than his counterparts at detroit's big three', but 'had a knack for making the most of his employer's investment'.after periods of intermittent independent success, renault acquired a major interest in american motors in 1979, and the company was ultimately acquired by chrysler in 1987.the new corporation would be called the american motors corporation.an earlier corporation with the same name, co-founded by louis chevrolet, had existed in plainfield, new jersey from 1916 through 1922 before merging into the bessemer–american motors corporation.the nash-kelvinator/hudson deal was a straight stock transfer (three shares of hudson listed at 11⅛, for two shares of american motors and one share of nash-kelvinator listed at 17⅜, for one share of american motors) and finalized in the spring of 1954, forming the fourth-biggest auto company in the u.s. with assets of us$355 million and more than $100 million in working capital.the new company retained hudson ceo a.e.barit as a consultant and he took a seat on the board of directors.nash's george w. mason became president and ceo.mason, the architect of the merger, believed that the survival of the u.s.'s remaining independent automakers was dependent on their joining in one multiple-brand company capable of challenging the big three as an equal.the 'frantic 1953–54 ford/gm price war' had a devastating impact on the remaining 'independent' automakers.the reasons for the merger between nash and hudson included helping cut costs and strengthen their sales organizations to meet the intense competition expected from autos' big three.one quick result from the merger was the doubling up with nash on purchasing and production, allowing hudson to cut prices an average of $155 on the wasp line, and up to $204 on the more expensive hornet models.after the merger, amc had its first profitable quarter during the second three months of 1955, earning $1,592,307, compared to a loss of $3,848,667 during the same period in the previous year.mason also entered into informal discussions with james j. nance of packard to outline his strategic vision.interim plans were made for american motors to buy packard ultramatic automatic transmissions and packard v8 engines for certain american motors products.in july 1954, packard acquired studebaker.the new studebaker-packard corporation (s-p) made the new 320 cu in (5.2 l) packard v8 engine and packard's ultramatic automatic transmission available to american motors for its 1955 nash ambassador and hudson hornet models.when mason died in 1954, george w. romney succeeded him.ironically, romney had once been offered nance's job.in 1948, romney received offers from packard for the post of chief operating officer and from nash for the number two position in the company.","american motors | successor | eagle automobile amc matador | manufacturer | american motors american motors | fate | chrysler american motors | keyperson | roy d chapin jr","american motors corporation (amc;

groton, connecticut.nr-1 was launched on 25 january 1969, completed initial sea trials 19 august 1969, and was home-ported at naval submarine base new london.nr-1 was the smallest nuclear submarine ever put into operation.the vessel was casually known as 'nerwin' and was never officially named or commissioned.the u.s. navy is allocated a specific number of warships by the u.s. congress, but admiral hyman rickover avoided using one of those allocations for the construction of nr-1 in order to circumvent the oversight that a warship receives from various bureaus.nr-1 had the unique capability to remain at one site and completely map or search an area with a high degree of accuracy, and this was a valuable asset on several occasions.in the 1970s and 1980s, nr-1 conducted numerous classified missions involving recovery of objects from the floor of the deep sea.these missions remain classified and few details have been made public.one publicly acknowledged mission in 1976 was to recover parts of an f-14 that were lost from the deck of an aircraft carrier and sank with at least one aim-54a phoenix air-to-air missile.the secrecy typical of usn submarine operations was heightened by rickover's personal involvement, and he shared details of nr-1 operations only on a need-to-know basis.rickover envisioned building a small fleet of nr-1 type submarines, but only one was built due to budget restrictions.following the loss of the space shuttle challenger in 1986, nr-1 was used to search for, identify, and recover critical parts of the challenger craft.it could remain on the sea floor without resurfacing frequently, and was a major tool for searching deep waters.nr-1 remained submerged and on station even when heavy weather and rough seas hit the area and forced all other search and recovery ships into port.: 65 in october 1994, a survey was done by the nr-1 off the florida straits 65 km southwest of key west where it encountered and explored an uncharted sink hole.on 2 december 1998, an advisory committee approved the name 'nr-1' for the hole.in 1995, robert ballard used the nr-1 and its support ship mv carolyn chouest to explore the wreck of hmhs britannic, the sister ship of rms titanic, which sank off the coast of greece while serving as a hospital ship during world war i.on 25 february 2007, nr-1 arrived in galveston, texas, towed by carolyn chouest, in preparation for an expedition to survey the flower garden banks national marine sanctuary and other sites in the gulf of mexico.nr-1 was deactivated on 21 november 2008 at the u.s. navy submarine base at groton, connecticut, defuelled at portsmouth naval shipyard in kittery, maine, then sent to puget sound naval shipyard to be scrapped.on 13 november 2013, the u.s. navy announced that salvaged pieces of the sub would be put on display at the submarine force library and museum in groton.its features included extending bottoming wheels, three viewing ports, exterior lighting, television and still cameras for color photographic studies, an object recovery claw, a manipulator that could be fitted with various gripping and cutting tools, and a work basket that could be used in conjunction with the manipulator to deposit or recover items in the sea.surface vision was provided by a television periscope permanently installed on a fixed mast in her sail area.: 6  nr-1 had sophisticated electronics, computers, and sonar systems that aided in navigation, communications, and object location and identification.","american submarine nr-1 | shiplaunch | 1969-01-25

"antares (), known during early development as taurus ii, is an expendable launch system developed by orbital sciences corporation (now part of northrop grumman) and the pivdenne design bureau to launch the cygnus spacecraft to the international space station as part of nasa's cots and crs programs.able to launch payloads heavier than 8,000 kg (18,000 lb) into low earth orbit, antares is currently the largest rocket operated by northrop grumman.antares launches from the mid-atlantic regional spaceport and made its inaugural flight on april 21, 2013.nasa awarded orbital a commercial orbital transportation services (cots) space act agreement (saa) in 2008 to demonstrate delivery of cargo to the international space station.for these cots missions orbital intends to use antares to launch its cygnus spacecraft.in addition, antares will compete for small-to-medium missions.originally designated the taurus ii, orbital sciences renamed the vehicle antares, after the star of the same name, on december 12, 2011.out of 17 total launches, antares has suffered one failure.during the fifth launch on october 28, 2014, the rocket failed catastrophically, and the vehicle and payload were destroyed.the rocket's first-stage engines were identified as the cause for the failure.a different engine was chosen for subsequent launches, and the rocket had a successful return to flight on october 17, 2016.the antares has flown two major design iterations, the 100 series and 200 series.both series have used a castor 30xl as an upper stage but have differed on the first stage.the 100 series used two kerolox powered aj26 engine in the first stage and launched successfully four times.the 100 series was retired following a launch failure in 2014.the 200 series which first flew in 2016 also featured a kerolox first stage but instead used two rd-181 engine along with other minor upgrades.the 200 series future became uncertain following the russian invasion of ukraine.due to the first stage being produced in ukraine and the engines in russia, future production of the rocket was unable to be continued.as a result northrop grumman entered into an agreement with firefly aerospace to build the first stage of the antares 300 series.northrop also contracted with spacex for 3 falcon 9 launches.a commercial resupply service contract of $1.9 billion for eight flights was awarded in 2008.as of april 2012, development costs were estimated at $472 million.in june 2008, it was announced that the mid-atlantic regional spaceport, formerly part of the wallops flight facility, in virginia, would be the primary launch site for the rocket.launch pad 0a (lp-0a), previously used for the failed conestoga rocket, would be modified to handle antares.wallops allows launches which reach the international space station's orbit as effectively as those from cape canaveral, florida, while being less crowded.the first antares flight launched a cygnus mass simulator.on december 10, 2009, alliant techsystems inc. (atk) test-fired their castor 30 motor for use on the second stage of the antares rocket.in march 2010, orbital sciences and aerojet completed test firings of the aj-26 engines.on february 22, 2013, a hot fire test was successfully performed, the entire first stage being erected on the pad and held down while the engines fired for 29 seconds.as orbital had little experience with large liquid stages and lox propellant, the first stage core was designed and is manufactured in ukraine by kb pivdenne and pivdenmash and includes propellant tanks, pressurization tanks, valves, sensors, feed lines, tubing, wiring and other associated hardware.like the zenit—also manufactured by yuzhmash—the antares vehicle has a diameter of 3.9 m (150 in) with a matching 3.9 m payload fairing.","antares rocket | manufacturer | yuzhnoye design office antares rocket | finalflight | 2014-10-28 antares rocket | maidenflight | 2013-04-21 antares rocket | launchsite | mid-atlantic regional spaceport","antares (), known during early development as taurus ii, is an expendable launch system developed by orbital sciences corporation (now part of northrop grumman) and the pivdenne design bureau to launch the cygnus spacecraft to the international space station as part of nasa's cots and crs programs.antares launches from the mid-atlantic regional spaceport and made its inaugural flight on april 21, 2013.nasa awarded orbital a commercial orbital transportation services (cots) space act agreement (saa) in 2008 to demonstrate delivery of cargo to the international space station.originally designated the taurus ii, orbital sciences renamed the vehicle antares, after the star of the same name, on december 12, 2011.the antares has flown two major design iterations, the 100 series and 200 series."

until this point, he had been a member of the bands union suit and hollomen.isis was formed in 1997 out of a dissatisfaction with said bands' musical direction and turner and caxide's respective degrees of creative control.in mid-2009, turner moved from los angeles, where both isis and hydra head records were based at the time, to seattle with his then-girlfriend, faith coloccia; they went on to wed in september of the same year.he has also acquired a custom guitar from the electrical guitar company (as did fellow isis guitarist michael gallagher).in the past, turner has also used a gibson les paul standard, prs ce24, and has played through sunn, mesa boogie, and mackie amplifiers.when playing with isis, turner and his fellow guitarists usually tuned their instruments (low to high) b-f#-b-e-g#-b, to achieve a heavier sound.they also used other tunings, though less frequently, such as f# (octave below)-f#-b-e-g#-b.in 2016, turner described the live rig he used with sumac as consisting of two custom-built guitars from the electrical guitar company.both have lucite bodies and aluminum necks, and custom-wound wide frequency range pickups.the newer of the two—a prototype for a signature model—has a slightly flatter fingerboard radius than the older instrument.","aaron turner | associatedband/associatedmusicalartist | twilight band aaron turner | associatedband/associatedmusicalartist | lotus eaters band aaron turner | genre | sludge metal aaron turner | origin | massachusetts aaron turner | activeyearsstartyear | 1995","no related information" "ayam penyet (javanese for squeezed fried chicken) is indonesian — more precisely east javanese cuisine — fried chicken dish consisting of fried chicken that is squeezed with the pestle against the mortar to make it softer, and is served with sambal, slices of cucumbers, fried tofu, and tempeh (mostly cucumber).in indonesia, penyet dishes such as fried chicken and ribs are commonly associated with surabaya, the capital city of east java.the most popular ayam penyet variant is ayam penyet suroboyo.ayam penyet is known for its spicy sambal, which is made with a mixture of chilli, anchovies, tomatoes, shallots, garlic, shrimp paste, tamarind and lime juice.like its namesake, the sambal mixture is then smashed into a paste to be eaten with the dish.penyet is a javanese term for 'squeezed' or 'pressed,' thus ayam penyet means 'squeezed chicken.'it is quite similar to another popular indonesian fried chicken dish ayam geprek, as both are fried chicken smashed and mixed together with hot and spicy sambal chili paste.the difference is ayam penyet is a traditional javanese ayam goreng half-cooked in bumbu kuning (yellow spice paste) and then deep fried in hot palm oil.ayam geprek however, is more akin to western-style (american) fried chicken, which is crispy fried chicken coated with batter, or known in indonesia as ayam goreng tepung (battered fried chicken).today ayam penyet is commonly found in indonesia, malaysia, brunei and singapore.it has recently surged in popularity across southeast asia, where various chains of franchises have opened selling the dish along with other indonesian delicacies.but it became more and more famous when surabaya people sold this under the name ayam penyet surabaya.maempin – resep ayam penyet","ayam penyet | region | malaysia malaysia | ethnicgroup | malaysian chinese ayam penyet | ingredient | fried chicken fried chicken | mainingredients | chicken ayam penyet | country | indonesia","ayam penyet (javanese for squeezed fried chicken) is indonesian — more precisely east javanese cuisine — fried chicken dish consisting of fried chicken that is squeezed with the pestle against the mortar to make it softer, and is served with sambal, slices of cucumbers, fried tofu, and tempeh (mostly cucumber).in indonesia, penyet dishes such as fried chicken and ribs are commonly associated with surabaya, the capital city of east java.penyet is a javanese term for 'squeezed' or 'pressed,' thus ayam penyet means 'squeezed chicken.'it is quite similar to another popular indonesian fried chicken dish ayam geprek, as both are fried chicken smashed and mixed together with hot and spicy sambal chili paste.the difference is ayam penyet is a traditional javanese ayam goreng half-cooked in bumbu kuning (yellow spice paste) and then deep fried in hot palm oil.ayam geprek however, is more akin to western-style (american) fried chicken, which is crispy fried chicken coated with batter, or known in indonesia as ayam goreng tepung (battered fried chicken).today ayam penyet is commonly found in indonesia, malaysia, brunei and singapore."

"germany, officially the federal republic of germany, is a country in central europe.it is the second-most populous country in europe after russia, and the most populous member state of the european union.germany is situated between the baltic and north seas to the north, and the alps to the south.its 16 constituent states are bordered by denmark to the north, poland and the czech republic to the east, austria and switzerland to the south, and france, luxembourg, belgium, and the netherlands to the west.the nation's capital and most populous city is berlin and its main financial centre is frankfurt; the largest urban area is the ruhr.various germanic tribes have inhabited the northern parts of modern germany since classical antiquity.a region named germania was documented before ad 100.in 962, the kingdom of germany formed the bulk of the holy roman empire.during the 16th century, northern german regions became the centre of the protestant reformation.following the napoleonic wars and the dissolution of the holy roman empire in 1806, the german confederation was formed in 1815.formal unification of germany into the modern nation-state was commenced on 18 august 1866 with the north german confederation treaty establishing the prussia-led north german confederation later transformed in 1871 into the german empire.after world war i and the german revolution of 1918–1919, the empire was in turn transformed into the semi-presidential weimar republic.the nazi seizure of power in 1933 led to the establishment of a totalitarian dictatorship, world war ii, and the holocaust.after the end of world war ii in europe and a period of allied occupation, in 1949, germany as a whole was organized into two separate polities with limited sovereignty: the federal republic of germany, generally known as west germany, and the german democratic republic, east germany, while berlin de jure continued its four power status.the federal republic of germany was a founding member of the european economic community and the european union, while the german democratic republic was a communist eastern bloc state and member of the warsaw pact.after the fall of communist led-government in east germany, german reunification saw the former east german states join the federal republic of germany on 3 october 1990—becoming a federal parliamentary republic.germany has been described as a great power with a strong economy; it has the largest economy in europe, the world's fourth-largest economy by nominal gdp and the fifth-largest by ppp.as a global power in industrial, scientific and technological sectors, it is both the world's third-largest exporter and importer.as a developed country it offers social security, a universal health care system and a tuition-free university education.germany is a member of the united nations, the european union, the nato, the council of europe, the g7, the g20 and the oecd.it has the third-greatest number of unesco world heritage sites.the german term deutschland, originally diutisciu land ('the german lands') is derived from deutsch (cf.dutch), descended from old high german diutisc 'of the people' (from diot or diota 'people'), originally used to distinguish the language of the common people from latin and its romance descendants.this in turn descends from proto-germanic *þiudiskaz 'of the people' (see also the latinised form theodiscus), derived from *þeudō, descended from proto-indo-european *tewtéh₂- 'people', from which the word teutons also originates.ancient humans were present in germany at least 600,000 years ago.the first non-modern human fossil (the neanderthal) was discovered in the neander valley.similarly dated evidence of modern humans has been found in the swabian jura, including

"bandeja paisa (paisa refers to a person from the paisa region and bandeja is spanish for platter), with variations known as bandeja de arriero, bandeja montañera, or bandeja antioqueña, is one of the most representative meals in colombian cuisine, especially of the antioquia department and the paisa region, as well as with the colombian coffee-growers axis (the departments of caldas, quindío and risaralda), and part of valle del cauca and the northwest of tolima.the main characteristic of this dish is the generous amount and variety of food in a traditional bandeja paisa: red beans cooked with pork, white rice, carne molida (ground meat), chicharrón, fried egg, plantain (plátano maduro), chorizo, arepa, hogao sauce, black pudding (morcilla), avocado and lemon.it is served in a platter or a tray.in the 19th century, french and british colonialists also brought their cuisine with them.the current form and presentation of the paisa platter is relatively recent.there are no references in the food writing about this dish before 1950.it is probably an interpretation of the local restaurants of simpler peasant dishes.one of its most prominent features is the juxtaposition of native american and european ingredients, which is also observed in other mestizo dishes of latin american cuisine, such as venezuelan pabellón criollo or costa rican gallo pinto.side dishes include mazamorra (a maize-derived beverage similar to atole) with milk and ground panela.there are several variants of the dish all over the country with deletion or addition of ingredients, which cannot be recognized as bandeja paisa in the strictest sense.some antioquian restaurants offer an 'extended' bandeja paisa, also known as 'seven meats platter', which contains, besides the aforementioned ingredients, grilled steak, grilled pork and liver.a diet-friendly version of the dish is very popular in bogotá, which replaces pork with grilled chicken breast, black pudding with salad and chorizo with a wiener.a number of people opposed this designation, arguing that only a small percentage of the colombian population consumes it on a regular basis and that it originated in a single region of colombia (antioquia).however, the suggested alternative, sancocho, is not a distinctively colombian dish, as it is known and enjoyed in many other countries, such as cuba, venezuela, the canary islands, puerto rico, the dominican republic and panama.due to the widespread ubiquity of sancocho, often colombian ajiaco is instead considered the most indicative colombian dish.nonetheless, the commercial colombian tourism industry has pushed ahead without official government sanction by emblazoning ads, menus, and brochure information with imagery of the bandeja paisa as the single most typical colombian dish.","bandeja paisa | ingredient | lemon lemon | order | rosids lemon | family | rutaceae bandeja paisa | country | colombian cuisine bandeja paisa | region | paisa region","bandeja paisa (paisa refers to a person from the paisa region and bandeja is spanish for platter), with variations known as bandeja de arriero, bandeja montañera, or bandeja antioqueña, is one of the most representative meals in colombian cuisine, especially of the antioquia department and the paisa region, as well as with the colombian coffee-growers axis (the departments of caldas, quindío and risaralda), and part of valle del cauca and the northwest of tolima.the main characteristic of this dish is the generous amount and variety of food in a traditional bandeja paisa: red beans cooked with pork, white rice, carne molida (ground meat), chicharrón, fried egg, plantain (plátano maduro), chorizo, arepa, hogao sauce, black pudding (morcilla), avocado and lemon.in the 19th century, french and british colonialists also brought their cuisine with them.the current form and presentation of the paisa platter is relatively recent.there are several variants of the dish all over the country with deletion or addition of ingredients, which cannot be recognized as bandeja paisa in the strictest sense.some antioquian restaurants offer an 'extended' bandeja paisa, also known as 'seven meats platter', which contains, besides the aforementioned ingredients, grilled steak, grilled pork and liver.nonetheless, the commercial colombian tourism industry has pushed ahead without official government sanction by emblazoning ads, menus, and brochure information with imagery of the bandeja paisa as the single most typical colombian dish."

"pakora (pronounced [pəˈkɔːɽa]) is a fritter originating from the indian subcontinent.they are sold by street vendors and served in restaurants in south asia.it consists of items, often vegetables such as potatoes and onions, coated in seasoned gram flour batter and deep fried.the pakora is known also under other spellings including pikora, pakoda, pakodi and regional names such as bhaji, bhajiya, bora, ponako, and chop.while the word bhajji is derived from sanskrit word bharjita meaning fried.some divergence of transliteration may be noted in the third consonant in the word.the sound is a hard 'da' in the telugu language and the 'ra' sound would be an incorrect pronunciation.the sound is the retroflex flap [ɽ], which is written in hindi with the devanagari letter ड़, and in urdu with letter ڑ.however, in the international alphabet of sanskrit transliteration, the hindi letter ड़ is transliterated as <ṛ>, popular or non-standard transliterations of hindi use for this sound, because etymologically, it derives from ड /ɖ/.the occurrence of this consonant in the word pakora has given rise to two common alternative spellings in english: pakoda, which reflects its etymology, and pakora, which reflects its phonology.early known recipes come from manasollasa (1130 ce) cookbook where it mentions 'parika' (pakoda) and method of preparing it with vegetables and gram flour.lokopakara (1025 ce) cookbook also mentions unique pakora recipe where gram flour is pressed into fish-shaped moulds and fried in mustard oil.common varieties of pakora use onion, masoor dal (lentil), suji (semolina), chicken, arbi root and leaves, eggplant, potato, chili pepper, spinach, paneer, cauliflower, mint, plantain or baby corn.the batter is most commonly made with gram flour or mixture of gram flour and rice flour but variants can use other flours, such as buckwheat flour.the spices used in the batter are up to the cook and may be chosen due to local tradition or availability; often these include fresh and dried spices such as chilli, fenugreek and coriander.they are also offered with masala chai to guests at indian wedding ceremonies.pakoda may be interpreted in these states as deep fried balls of finely chopped onions, green chilis, and spices mixed in gram flour.","bhajji | country | india india | demonym | indian people india | leadername | t s thakur india | leadername | sumitra mahajan bhajji | region | karnataka","pakora (pronounced [pəˈkɔːɽa]) is a fritter originating from the indian subcontinent.they are also offered with masala chai to guests at indian wedding ceremonies." "benegnet is a visayan dessert soup from the central philippines.the dish is traditionally made with glutinous rice cooked in coconut milk with various slices of sabá bananas, taro, ube, and sweet potato, among other ingredients.it is comparable to various dessert guinataán (coconut milk-based) dishes found in other regions such as bilo-bilo.among the visayan people, the dish is traditionally served during good friday of holy week.binignit is considered a type of lugaw (rice gruel) and guinataán (dishes cooked in coconut milk).two cups of water are then added to the grated coconut, and a second extraction is made.this becomes the 'thin' milk.this 'thin' coconut milk extract is added to cubed kamote (sweet potato), gabi (taro) and ube (purple yam), sliced ripe sabá bananas, langka (jack fruit), and tapioca pearls.sometimes, young coconut meat strips are also added.this is simmered on low to medium heat, to prevent the coconut milk from curdling.glutinous rice (pilit) is added once the root crops have sufficiently softened and the mixture is brought to a boil; being stirred occasionally until done.just before removal from the flame, the 'thick' coconut milk is added.the people of the neighboring island of leyte use ingredients such as landang (palm flour jelly balls), jackfruit, and anise, and thicken it with milled glutinous rice.the vegetables and the pearl sago are cooked in a mixture of water, coconut milk and landang, and sweetened by muscovado or brown sugar.for the people of panay, their version contains balls made of glutinous flour, as well as jackfruit.the balls are formed and boiled until they float, indicating that they are cooked.these are then added to the linugaw or eangkuga.this is similar to the preparation of bilo-bilo but the locals call it by eangkuga or linugaw.others serve it chilled or even frozen, eating the dessert much like ice cream.among the visayan people, the soup is also widely cooked and eaten for the holy week, especially during good friday when observant catholics fast and avoid meat.","binignit | mainingredients | sweet potato binignit | region | visayas binignit | course | dessert binignit | country | philippines binignit | ingredient | banana","no related information" "azerbaijan (uk: (listen), us: ;

"alfred garth jones (1872–1955) was an english artist and illustrator who worked mainly in woodcut, pen and ink line art drawing and watercolour.at that time, thomas jones was a mechanical draughtsman although he later progressed to become an engineering lecturer.in the united kingdom census 1881, alfred is listed (aged 8) with the rest of his family (ada, mary, thomas, alfred, ernest, robert, maud and later percy) which was resident in moss side, then a manchester suburb.at age 18, alfred was still living with his parents and was studying art in manchester.it seems that within a few years he had moved to london in order to advance his career in the arts.this was most probably in order to become a student at the national art training school in south kensington, an institution that would become the royal college of art in 1896.the march 1901 edition of the poster and art collector publication included an article entitled 'some remarks on the work of alfred garth jones' (by the editor).this describes how jones continued his training by attending the slade school of fine art as a pupil of professor fred brown.he then extended his studies in paris at the académie julian where he was directed by jean-joseph benjamin-constant and jean-paul laurens, before returning to england in 1894.on 15 december 1898 alfred married harriette napier osborne (a farmer's daughter b 10 december 1875 in marden, kent) at the parish church (now chelsea old church) in the parish of st. luke, chelsea, london.the ceremony was attended by alfred's father, thomas, and by harriette's mother, lydia napier osborne (née hardy).by the time of the united kingdom census 1901 the couple were living on the king's road, chelsea.in 1911, alfred and harriette were living in wandsworth with their 5-year-old daughter, barbara garth jones.the census of that year records that harriette had by this time given birth to two children.brian garth jones had been born in 1902 but had died aged four.the census forms in the united kingdom were then required to be completed by the head of the household, for that individual address, and this document bears the name and signature 'alfred garth jones'.the reason for choosing this name is not known, but may have been influenced by the welsh ancestry of his forefathers.his earlier works were signed a garth jones (or a g j), although later this was shortened to garth jones.jones' illustrations were used in several notable publications around the start of the 20th century, including works by tennyson, h.g.wells, john milton, conan doyle and carmen sylva.in 1894, the first examples of jones' illustrations appeared in 'the tournament of love' by william theodore peters and 'fairy tales from classic myths for boys and girls' by charles h smith.two years later, jones edited the beam, a bi-monthly magazine published by students of the national art training schools.there were only three editions produced between january and may 1896.from 1896 to nearly the end of 1899, alfred was design master at the lambeth school of art.in 1898, he produced a woodcut portrayal of the bound samson in a collection of john milton's poems.by 1901, jones' reputation was sufficient that he was selected, along with harold nelson, by elisabeth of wied (queen consort of carol i of romania) to illustrate the english edition of a book of verse (a real queen's fairy book, published by george newnes ltd) which she had written under the pen name of carmen sylva.in france at around the same time, jérôme doucet (1865–1957) chose jones to be the illustrator for his 'contes de la fileuse' (tales of the spinner).","alfred garth jones | deathplace | sidcup alfred garth jones | deathplace | london alfred garth jones | birthplace | manchester manchester | leadername | labour party uk london | leadertitle | european parliament","at that time, thomas jones was a mechanical draughtsman although he later progressed to become an engineering lecturer.in the united kingdom census 1881, alfred is listed (aged 8) with the rest of his family (ada, mary, thomas, alfred, ernest, robert, maud and later percy) which was resident in moss side, then a manchester suburb.at age 18, alfred was still living with his parents and was studying art in manchester.on 15 december 1898 alfred married harriette napier osborne (a farmer's daughter b 10 december 1875 in marden, kent) at the parish church (now chelsea old church) in the parish of st. luke, chelsea, london."

"hip hop music or hip-hop music, also known as rap music and formerly known as disco rap, is a genre of popular music that originated in the bronx borough of new york city in the early 1970s by african americans, and it had been around for years prior before mainstream discovery.this genre of music originated as anti-drug and anti-violence, while consisting of stylized rhythmic music (usually built around drum beats) that commonly accompanies rapping, a rhythmic and rhyming speech that is chanted.according to the professor asante of african american studies at temple university, 'hip hop is something that blacks can unequivocally claim as their own'.it was developed as part of hip hop culture, a subculture defined by four key stylistic elements: mcing/rapping, djing/scratching with turntables, break dancing, and graffiti art.other elements include sampling beats or bass lines from records (or synthesized beats and sounds), and rhythmic beatboxing.while often used to refer solely to rapping, 'hip hop' more properly denotes the practice of the entire subculture.the term hip hop music is sometimes used synonymously with the term rap music, though rapping is not a required component of hip hop music; the genre may also incorporate other elements of hip hop culture, including djing, turntablism, scratching, beatboxing, and instrumental tracks.hip hop as both a musical genre and a culture was formed during the 1970s when block parties became increasingly popular in new york city, particularly among african american youth residing in the bronx.at block parties, djs played percussive breaks of popular songs using two turntables and a dj mixer to be able to play breaks from two copies of the same record, alternating from one to the other and extending the 'break'.hip hop's early evolution occurred as sampling technology and drum machines became widely available and affordable.turntablist techniques such as scratching and beatmatching developed along with the breaks.rapping developed as a vocal style in which the artist speaks or chants along rhythmically with an instrumental or synthesized beat.hip hop music was not officially recorded for play on radio or television until 1979, largely due to poverty during the genre's birth and lack of acceptance outside ghetto neighborhoods.old school hip hop was the first mainstream wave of the genre, marked by its disco influence and party-oriented lyrics.the 1980s marked the diversification of hip hop as the genre developed more complex styles and spread around the world.new school hip hop was the genre's second wave, marked by its electro sound, and led into golden age hip hop, an innovative period between the mid-1980s and mid-1990s that also developed hip hop's own album era.the gangsta rap subgenre, focused on the violent lifestyles and impoverished conditions of inner-city african american youth, gained popularity at this time.west coast hip hop was dominated by g-funk in the early-mid 1990s, while east coast hip hop was dominated by jazz rap, alternative hip hop, and hardcore hip hop.hip hop continued to diversify at this time with other regional styles emerging, such as southern rap and atlanta hip hop.hip hop became a best-selling genre in the mid-1990s and the top-selling music genre by 1999.the popularity of hip hop music continued through the late 1990s to early-2000s 'bling era' with hip hop influences increasingly finding their way into other genres of popular music, such as neo soul, nu metal, and r&b.the united states also saw the success of regional styles such as crunk, a southern genre that emphasized the beats and music more than the lyrics, and alternative hip hop began to secure a place in the mainstream, due in part to the crossover success of its artists.","hip hop music | stylisticorigin | disco allen forrest | birthdate | 1981-02-04 allen forrest | genre | hip hop music hip hop music | stylisticorigin | funk hip hop music | derivative | drum and bass","hip hop music or hip-hop music, also known as rap music and formerly known as disco rap, is a genre of popular music that originated in the bronx borough of new york city in the early 1970s by african americans, and it had been around for years prior before mainstream discovery.this genre of music originated as anti-drug and anti-violence, while consisting of stylized rhythmic music (usually built around drum beats) that commonly accompanies rapping, a rhythmic and rhyming speech that is chanted.it was developed as part of hip hop culture, a subculture defined by four key stylistic elements: mcing/rapping, djing/scratching with turntables, break dancing, and graffiti art.the term hip hop music is sometimes used synonymously with the term rap music, though rapping is not a required component of hip hop music;

spanish pronunciation: [paɾaˈɣwaj] (listen)), officially the republic of paraguay (spanish: república del paraguay; guarani: tavakuairetã paraguái), is a landlocked country in south america.it is bordered by argentina to the south and southwest, brazil to the east and northeast, and bolivia to the northwest.it has a population of 7 million, nearly 3 million of whom live in the capital and largest city of asunción, and its surrounding metro.although one of only two landlocked countries in south america (bolivia is the other), paraguay has ports on the paraguay and paraná rivers that give exit to the atlantic ocean, through the paraná-paraguay waterway.spanish conquistadores arrived in 1524, and in 1537 established the city of asunción, the first capital of the governorate of the río de la plata.during the 17th century, paraguay was the center of jesuit missions, where the native guaraní people were converted to christianity and introduced to european culture.after the expulsion of the jesuits from spanish territories in 1767, paraguay increasingly became a peripheral colony, with few urban centers and settlers.following independence from spain in the early 19th century, paraguay was ruled by a series of authoritarian governments characterized by nationalist, isolationist and protectionist policies.this period ended with the disastrous paraguayan war (1864–70), during which the country lost half its prewar population and around 25–33% of its territory to the triple alliance of argentina, brazil and uruguay.in the 20th century, paraguay faced another major international conflict—the chaco war (1932–35) against bolivia—in which it prevailed.afterwards, the country came under a succession of military dictators, culminating in the 35-year regime of alfredo stroessner, which lasted until his overthrow in 1989 by an internal military coup.this marked the beginning of paraguay's democratic era, which continues to this day.paraguay is a developing country, ranking 105th in the human development index.it is a founding member of mercosur, the united nations, the organization of american states, the non-aligned movement and the lima group.additionally, the city of luque, in metropolitan asuncion, is the seat of the south american football confederation.the majority of paraguay's seven million people are mestizo, and guarani culture remains widely influential; more than 90% of the population speak various dialects of the guarani language alongside spanish.paraguay's gdp per capita ppp is the seventh in south america.in a 2017 positive experience index based on global polling data, paraguay ranked as the 'world's happiest place'.western paraguay, the gran chaco, was inhabited by nomads of whom the guaycuru peoples were the most prominent.the paraguay river was roughly the dividing line between the agricultural guarani people to the east and the nomadic and semi-nomadic people to the west in the gran chaco.the guarcuru nomads were known for their warrior traditions and were not fully pacified until the late 19th century.these indigenous tribes belonged to five distinct language families, which were the bases of their major divisions.differing language speaking groups were generally competitive over resources and territories.they were further divided into tribes by speaking languages in branches of these families.today 17 separate ethnolinguistic groups remain.the spanish explorer juan de salazar de espinosa founded the settlement of asunción on 15 august 1537.the city eventually became the center of a spanish colonial province of paraguay.an attempt to create an autonomous christian indian nation was undertaken by jesuit missions and settlements in this part of south america in the eighteenth century.they developed jesuit reductions to bring guarani populations together at spanish missions and protect them from virtual slavery by spanish settlers and portuguese slave raiders, the bandeirantes, in addition to seeking their conversion to christianity.","paraguay | ethnicgroup | mestizo agustín barboza | deathplace | asunción asunción | ispartof | gran asunción paraguay | leadername | juan afara agustín barboza | birthplace | paraguay","it has a population of 7 million, nearly 3 million of whom live in the capital and largest city of asunción, and its surrounding metro.although one of only two landlocked countries in south america (bolivia is the other), paraguay has ports on the paraguay and paraná rivers that give exit to the atlantic ocean, through the paraná-paraguay waterway.spanish conquistadores arrived in 1524, and in 1537 established the city of asunción, the first capital of the governorate of the río de la plata.the majority of paraguay's seven million people are mestizo, and guarani culture remains widely influential;

"singapore ( (listen)), officially the republic of singapore, is an island country and city-state in maritime southeast asia.it is located about one degree of latitude (137 kilometres or 85 miles) north of the equator, off the southern tip of the malay peninsula, bordering the strait of malacca to the west, the singapore strait to the south, the south china sea to the east, and the straits of johor to the north.the country's territory is composed of one main island, 63 satellite islands and islets, and one outlying islet; the combined area of these has increased by 25% since the country's independence as a result of extensive land reclamation projects.it has the third highest population density in the world, although there are numerous green and recreational spaces as a result of urban planning.with a multicultural population and in recognition of the cultural identities of the major ethnic groups within the nation, singapore has four official languages – english, malay, mandarin, and tamil.english is the lingua franca, with its exclusive use in numerous public services.multi-racialism is enshrined in the constitution and continues to shape national policies in education, housing, and politics.singapore's history dates back at least a millennium, having been a maritime emporium known as temasek and subsequently as a major constituent part of several successive thalassocratic empires.its contemporary era began in 1819 when stamford raffles established singapore as an entrepôt trading post of the british empire.in 1867, the colonies in southeast asia were reorganised and singapore came under the direct control of britain as part of the straits settlements.during world war ii, singapore was occupied by japan in 1942, and returned to british control as a separate crown colony following japan's surrender in 1945.singapore gained self-governance in 1959 and in 1963 became part of the new federation of malaysia, alongside malaya, north borneo, and sarawak.ideological differences, most notably the perceived encroachment of the egalitarian 'malaysian malaysia' political ideology led by lee kuan yew into the other constituent entities of malaysia—at the perceived expense of the bumiputera and the policies of ketuanan melayu—eventually led to singapore's expulsion from the federation two years later; singapore became an independent sovereign country in 1965.after early years of turbulence and despite lacking natural resources and a hinterland, the nation rapidly developed to become one of the four asian tigers.with its growth based on international trade and economic globalisation, it integrated itself with the world economy through free trade with minimal-to-no trade barriers or tariffs, export-oriented industrialisation, and the large accumulation of received foreign direct investments, foreign-exchange reserves, and assets held by sovereign wealth funds.a highly developed country, it has the second-highest gdp per capita (ppp) in the world.identified as a tax haven, singapore is the only country in asia with a aaa sovereign credit rating from all major rating agencies.it is a major aviation, financial, and maritime shipping hub, and has consistently been ranked as one of the most expensive cities to live in for expatriates and foreign workers.singapore ranks highly in key social indicators: education, healthcare, quality of life, personal safety, infrastructure, and housing, with a home-ownership rate of 88 percent.singaporeans enjoy one of the longest life expectancies, fastest internet connection speeds, lowest infant mortality rates, and lowest levels of corruption in the world.singapore is a unitary parliamentary republic with a westminster system of unicameral parliamentary government, and its legal system is based on common law.while the country is a multi-party democracy with free elections, the government under the people's action party (pap) wields significant control and dominance over politics and society.","singapore | language | english language beef kway teow | country | singapore beef kway teow | region | nationwide in singapore and indonesia singapore | leadername | tony tan singapore | leadername | halimah yacob","with a multicultural population and in recognition of the cultural identities of the major ethnic groups within the nation, singapore has four official languages – english, malay, mandarin, and tamil.singaporeans enjoy one of the longest life expectancies, fastest internet connection speeds, lowest infant mortality rates, and lowest levels of corruption in the world."

"rock music is a broad genre of popular music that originated as 'rock and roll' in the united states in the late 1940s and early 1950s, developing into a range of different styles from the mid-1960s, particularly in the united states and united kingdom.it has its roots in 1940s and 1950s rock and roll, a style that drew directly from the blues and rhythm and blues genres of african-american music and from country music.rock also drew strongly from genres such as electric blues and folk, and incorporated influences from jazz, classical, and other musical styles.for instrumentation, rock has centered on the electric guitar, usually as part of a rock group with electric bass guitar, drums, and one or more singers.usually, rock is song-based music with a 44 time signature using a verse–chorus form, but the genre has become extremely diverse.like pop music, lyrics often stress romantic love but also address a wide variety of other themes that are frequently social or political.rock was the most popular genre of music in the united states and much of the western world from the 1950s to the 2010s.rock musicians in the mid-1960s began to advance the album ahead of the single as the dominant form of recorded music expression and consumption, with the beatles at the forefront of this development.their contributions lent the genre a cultural legitimacy in the mainstream and initiated a rock-informed album era in the music industry for the next several decades.by the late 1960s 'classic rock' period, a number of distinct rock music subgenres had emerged, including hybrids like blues rock, folk rock, country rock, southern rock, raga rock, and jazz rock, many of which contributed to the development of psychedelic rock, which was influenced by the countercultural psychedelic and hippie scene.new genres that emerged included progressive rock, which extended the artistic elements, glam rock, which highlighted showmanship and visual style, and the diverse and enduring subgenre of heavy metal, which emphasized volume, power, and speed.in the second half of the 1970s, punk rock reacted by producing stripped-down, energetic social and political critiques.punk was an influence in the 1980s on new wave, post-punk and eventually alternative rock.from the 1990s, alternative rock began to dominate rock music and break into the mainstream in the form of grunge, britpop, and indie rock.further fusion subgenres have since emerged, including pop-punk, electronic rock, rap rock, and rap metal.some movements were conscious attempts to revisit rock's history, including the garage rock/post-punk revival in the 2000s.since the 2010s, rock has lost its position as the pre-eminent popular music genre in world culture, but remains commercially successful.the increased influence of hip-hop and electronic dance music can be seen in rock music, notably in the techno-pop scene of the early 2010s and the pop-punk-hip-hop revival of the 2020s.rock has also embodied and served as the vehicle for cultural and social movements, leading to major subcultures including mods and rockers in the united kingdom, the hippie movement and the wider western counterculture movement that spread out from san francisco in the us in the 1960s, the latter of which continues to this day.similarly, 1970s punk culture spawned the goth, punk, and emo subcultures.inheriting the folk tradition of the protest song, rock music has been associated with political activism as well as changes in social attitudes to race, sex, and drug use, and is often seen as an expression of youth revolt against adult consumerism and conformity.at the same time, it has been commercially highly successful, leading to charges of selling out.","rock music |

"abraham alexander ribicoff (april 9, 1910 – february 22, 1998) was an american democratic party politician from the state of connecticut.he represented connecticut in the united states house of representatives and senate and was the 80th governor of connecticut and secretary of health, education, and welfare in president john f. kennedy's cabinet.he was connecticut's first and to date only jewish governor.ribicoff's relatively poor parents valued education and insisted that all his earnings from part-time boyhood jobs go toward his future schooling.after high school, he worked for a year at a nearby zipper factory of the g. e. prentice company to earn additional funds for college.ribicoff enrolled at new york university in 1928, then transferred to the university of chicago after the prentice company made him the chicago office manager.while in chicago, ribicoff coped with school and work schedules and was permitted to enter the university's law school before finishing his undergraduate degree.still a student, he married ruth siegel on june 28, 1931; they had two children.ribicoff served as editor of the university of chicago law review in his third year and received an llb cum laude in 1933, being admitted to the connecticut bar the same year.after practicing law in the office of a hartford lawyer, ribicoff set up his practice, first in kensington and later in hartford.from 1941 to 1943 and again from 1945 to 1947 he was the judge of hartford police court.during his political career, ribicoff was a protégé of john moran bailey, the powerful chairman of the democratic party of connecticut.during that time, he served on the foreign affairs committee, a position usually reserved for members with more seniority, and was a mostly loyal supporter of the foreign and domestic policies of president harry s. truman's administration.generally liberal in his outlook, he surprised many by opposing a $32 million appropriation for the construction of a dam in enfield, connecticut, arguing that the money was better spent on military needs and foreign policy initiatives such as the marshall plan.in 1952 he made an unsuccessful bid for election to fill a vacancy in the united states senate, losing to prescott bush.as governor (1955–1961), ribicoff soon faced the challenge of rebuilding his state in the wake of devastating floods that occurred in the late summer and fall of 1955, and he successfully led bipartisan efforts to aid damaged areas.ribicoff then successfully argued for increased state spending on schools and welfare programs.he also supported an amendment to the state constitution that enhanced the governing powers of local municipalities.easily reelected in 1958, ribicoff had by now become active on the national political scene.a longtime friend of massachusetts senator john f. kennedy, ribicoff had nominated his fellow new englander for vice president at the 1956 democratic national convention and was one of the first public officials to endorse kennedy's presidential campaign.he reportedly declined the position of attorney general for fear that he might create needless controversy within the emerging civil rights movement because he was jewish, and he instead chose to be secretary of health, education, and welfare (hew).although he managed to secure a revision of the 1935 social security act that liberalized requirements for aid to dependent children, ribicoff was unable to gain approval for the administration's medicare and school aid bills.eventually, he tired of attempting to manage the department, whose very size made it, in his opinion, unmanageable.ribicoff reflected that he had sought out the position of hew secretary mainly out of concern for education and 'realized that the problems of health and welfare were so overriding that education was relegated to the back burner' during his tenure.","abraham a ribicoff | office workedat workedas | united states secretary of health education

"the alhambra (, spanish: [aˈlambɾa ]; arabic: الْحَمْرَاء, romanized: al-ḥamrāʼ ) is a palace and fortress complex located in granada, andalusia, spain.it is one of the most famous monuments of islamic architecture and one of the best-preserved palaces of the historic islamic world, in addition to containing notable examples of spanish renaissance architecture.the complex was begun in 1238 by muhammad i ibn al-ahmar, the first nasrid emir and founder of the emirate of granada, the last muslim state of al-andalus.it was built on the sabika hill, an outcrop of the sierra nevada which had been the site of earlier fortresses and of the 11th-century palace of samuel ibn naghrillah.later nasrid rulers continuously modified the site.the most significant construction campaigns, which gave the royal palaces much of their definitive character, took place in the 14th century during the reigns of yusuf i and muhammad v. after the conclusion of the christian reconquista in 1492, the site became the royal court of ferdinand and isabella (where christopher columbus received royal endorsement for his expedition), and the palaces were partially altered.in 1526, charles v commissioned a new renaissance-style palace in direct juxtaposition with the nasrid palaces, but it was left uncompleted in the early 17th century.after being allowed to fall into disrepair for centuries, with its buildings occupied by squatters, the alhambra was rediscovered following the defeat of napoleon i, whose troops destroyed parts of the site.the rediscoverers were first british intellectuals and then other american and northern european romantic travelers.the most influential of them was washington irving, whose tales of the alhambra (1832) brought international attention to the site.the alhambra was one of the first islamic monuments to become the object of modern scientific study and has been the subject of numerous restorations since the 19th century.it is now one of spain's major tourist attractions and a unesco world heritage site.during the nasrid era, the alhambra was a self-contained city separate from the rest of granada below.it contained most of the amenities of a muslim city such as a friday mosque, hammams (public baths), roads, houses, artisan workshops, a tannery, and a sophisticated water supply system.as a royal city and citadel, it contained at least six major palaces, most of them located along the northern edge where they commanded views over the albaicín quarter.the most famous and best-preserved are the mexuar, the comares palace, the palace of the lions, and the partal palace, which form the main attraction to visitors today.the other palaces are known from historical sources and from modern excavations.at the alhambra's western tip is the alcazaba fortress.multiple smaller towers and fortified gates are also located along the alhambra's walls.outside the alhambra walls and located nearby to the east is the generalife, a former nasrid country estate and summer palace accompanied by historic orchards and modern landscaped gardens.the architecture of the nasrid palaces reflects the tradition of moorish architecture developed over previous centuries.it is characterized by the use of the courtyard as a central space and basic unit around which other halls and rooms were organized.courtyards typically had water features at their center, such as a reflective pool or a fountain.decoration was focused on the inside of the building and was executed primarily with tile mosaics on lower walls and carved stucco on the upper walls.geometric patterns, vegetal motifs, and arabic inscriptions were the main types of decorative motifs.additionally, 'stalactite'-like sculpting, known as muqarnas, was used for three-dimensional features like vaulted ceilings.'the red one' (f.), the complete form of which was الْقَلْعَةُ ٱلْحَمْرَاءُ al-qalʻat al-ḥamrāʼ 'the red fortress (qalat)'.","alhambra | owner | p&o company alhambra | powertype | humphrys tennant and dykes humphrys tennant and dykes | location | deptford alhambra | builder | samuda brothers alhambra | length | 638000 millimetres","the alhambra (, spanish: [aˈlambɾa ];

a cabin fire during a launch rehearsal test at cape kennedy air force station launch complex 34 on january 27 killed all three crew members—command pilot gus grissom, senior pilot ed white, and pilot roger b. chaffee—and destroyed the command module (cm).the name apollo 1, chosen by the crew, was made official by nasa in their honor after the fire.immediately after the fire, nasa convened an accident review board to determine the cause of the fire, and both chambers of the united states congress conducted their own committee inquiries to oversee nasa's investigation.the ignition source of the fire was determined to be electrical, and the fire spread rapidly due to combustible nylon material and the high-pressure pure oxygen cabin atmosphere.rescue was prevented by the plug door hatch, which could not be opened against the internal pressure of the cabin.because the rocket was unfueled, the test had not been considered hazardous, and emergency preparedness for it was poor.during the congressional investigation, senator walter mondale publicly revealed a nasa internal document citing problems with prime apollo contractor north american aviation, which became known as the phillips report.this disclosure embarrassed nasa administrator james e. webb, who was unaware of the document's existence, and attracted controversy to the apollo program.despite congressional displeasure at nasa's lack of openness, both congressional committees ruled that the issues raised in the report had no bearing on the accident.crewed apollo flights were suspended for twenty months while the command module's hazards were addressed.however, the development and uncrewed testing of the lunar module (lm) and saturn v rocket continued.the saturn ib launch vehicle for apollo 1, sa-204, was used for the first lm test flight, apollo 5.the first successful crewed apollo mission was flown by apollo 1's backup crew on apollo 7 in october 1968.as-204 was to test launch operations, ground tracking and control facilities and the performance of the apollo-saturn launch assembly and would have lasted up to two weeks, depending on how the spacecraft performed.the csm for this flight, number 012 built by north american aviation (naa), was a block i version designed before the lunar orbit rendezvous landing strategy was chosen; therefore it lacked the capability of docking with the lunar module.this was incorporated into the block ii csm design, along with lessons learned in block i.block ii would be test-flown with the lm when the latter was ready.director of flight crew operations deke slayton selected the first apollo crew in january 1966, with grissom as command pilot, white as senior pilot, and rookie donn f. eisele as pilot.but eisele dislocated his shoulder twice aboard the kc-135 weightlessness training aircraft, and had to undergo surgery on january 27.slayton replaced him with chaffee, and nasa announced the crew selection on march 21, 1966.james mcdivitt, david scott and russell schweickart were named as the backup crew.on september 29, walter schirra, eisele, and walter cunningham were named as the prime crew for a second block i csm flight, as-205.nasa planned to follow this with an uncrewed test flight of the lm (as-206), then the third crewed mission would be a dual flight designated as-278 (or as-207/208), in which as-207 would launch the first crewed block ii csm, which would then rendezvous and dock with the lm launched uncrewed on as-208.in march, nasa was studying the possibility of flying the first apollo mission as a joint space rendezvous with the final project gemini mission, gemini 12 in november 1966.","apollo 12 | backup pilot | alfred worden alan bean | was a crew member of | apollo 12 apollo 12 | operator | nasa alan bean | timeinspace | 1003050minutes apollo 12 | commander | david scott","the name apollo 1, chosen by the crew, was made official by nasa in their honor after the fire.during the congressional investigation, senator walter mondale publicly revealed a nasa internal document citing problems with prime apollo contractor north american aviation, which became known as the phillips report.this disclosure embarrassed nasa administrator james e. webb, who was unaware of the document's existence, and attracted controversy to the apollo program.nasa planned to follow this with an uncrewed test flight of the lm (as-206), then the third crewed mission would be a dual flight designated as-278 (or as-207/208), in which as-207 would launch the first crewed block ii csm, which would then rendezvous and dock with the lm launched uncrewed on as-208.in march, nasa was studying the possibility of flying the first apollo mission as a joint space rendezvous with the final project gemini mission, gemini 12 in november 1966." "antares (), known during early development as taurus ii, is an expendable launch system developed by orbital sciences corporation (now part of northrop grumman) and the pivdenne design bureau to launch the cygnus spacecraft to the international space station as part of nasa's cots and crs programs.able to launch payloads heavier than 8,000 kg (18,000 lb) into low earth orbit, antares is currently the largest rocket operated by northrop grumman.antares launches from the mid-atlantic regional spaceport and made its inaugural flight on april 21, 2013.nasa awarded orbital a commercial orbital transportation services (cots) space act agreement (saa) in 2008 to demonstrate delivery of cargo to the international space station.for these cots missions orbital intends to use antares to launch its cygnus spacecraft.in addition, antares will compete for small-to-medium missions.originally designated the taurus ii, orbital sciences renamed the vehicle antares, after the star of the same name, on december 12, 2011.out of 17 total launches, antares has suffered one failure.during the fifth launch on october 28, 2014, the rocket failed catastrophically, and the vehicle and payload were destroyed.the rocket's first-stage engines were identified as the cause for the failure.a different engine was chosen for subsequent launches, and the rocket had a successful return to flight on october 17, 2016.the antares has flown two major design iterations, the 100 series and 200 series.both series have used a castor 30xl as an upper stage but have differed on the first stage.the 100 series used two kerolox powered aj26 engine in the first stage and launched successfully four times.the 100 series was retired following a launch failure in 2014.the 200 series which first flew in 2016 also featured a kerolox first stage but instead used two rd-181 engine along with other minor upgrades.the 200 series future became uncertain following the russian invasion of ukraine.due to the first stage being produced in ukraine and the engines in russia, future production of the rocket was unable to be continued.as a result northrop grumman entered into an agreement with firefly aerospace to build the first stage of the antares 300 series.northrop also contracted with spacex for 3 falcon 9 launches.a commercial resupply service contract of $1.9 billion for eight flights was awarded in 2008.as of april 2012, development costs were estimated at $472 million.in june 2008, it was announced that the mid-atlantic regional spaceport, formerly part of the wallops flight facility, in virginia, would be the primary launch site for the rocket.launch pad 0a (lp-0a), previously used for the failed conestoga rocket, would be modified to handle antares.wallops allows launches which reach the international space station's orbit as effectively as those from cape canaveral, florida, while being less crowded.the first antares flight launched a cygnus mass simulator.on december 10, 2009, alliant techsystems inc.

"colonel albert jennings fountain (october 23, 1838 – disappeared february 1, 1896) was an american attorney who served in the texas senate and the new mexico house of representatives.following a purge of corruption among cattle rustlers that fountain investigated and prosecuted, he and his eight-year-old son henry disappeared near white sands, new mexico territory.their bloodstained wagon and other evidence of an ambush were recovered, but the bodies were never found.suspicion centered on two rival landowners, oliver m. lee and albert bacon fall.lee and two employees were tried for the murder of henry fountain, but acquitted after a defense by fall.no charges were ever filed for the death of albert fountain.he went to california as a young man and began calling himself by an anglicised version of his mother's family name.(accounts differ as to why he did so.)fountain studied law in california and was admitted to the bar in 1860.working as a reporter for the sacramento union, he travelled to nicaragua in 1860 to cover the filibustering expedition of william walker.angering walker by his reports, fountain was arrested and sentenced to be shot.however, he escaped and returned to california.in august 1861, during the american civil war, fountain enlisted in the company e of the 1st california infantry regiment of the union army and was elected first sergeant of his company.he took part in the 1862 recapture of the new mexico territory as a member of the california column.in october 1862, he married mariana pérez of mesilla.they would become the parents of four sons and two daughters.later commissioned a second lieutenant, he was discharged on august 31, 1864.fountain almost immediately joined the new mexico volunteers because of the ongoing indian wars.in june 1865, he was seriously wounded while pursuing hostile apaches.he spent a night trapped under his dead horse, with a bullet in his thigh, an arrow in his forearm, and another arrow in his shoulder.on his recovery, fountain was discharged as a brevet captain.fountain settled in el paso, texas, working for the united states property commission, which investigated and disposed of former confederate property.he was then made the customs collector for the el paso region.fountain was next appointed an election judge, and finally became the assessor and collector of internal revenue for the western district of texas.in 1870, fountain became a co-founder of the church of st. clement, the first protestant church in el paso.in november 1869, fountain won a seat as a republican in the texas senate, serving in the twelfth and thirteenth texas legislatures.he was elected as president pro tempore during the second session of the twelfth legislature and served as lieutenant governor ex officio at the same time, as the office was vacant.fountain's most notable accomplishment was pushing through the bill that re-established the texas rangers, which had been abolished after the civil war.fountain's radical republican views angered texas democrats and he was challenged to several duels, resulting in him killing at least one man, frank williams.in 1873, fountain moved from el paso to mesilla with his wife and their five children.there he became a lawyer, using his fluent spanish to good advantage in jury trials.fountain was appointed assistant district attorney and also served as probate judge and a deputy court clerk.in 1877, he founded a newspaper, the mesilla valley independent, which was issued in both english and spanish.he also founded the mesilla dramatic society and the mesilla valley opera house, now the fountain theater, both originally operated by his family.","albert jennings fountain | deathplace | doña ana county new mexico albert jennings fountain | deathplace | united states albert jennings fountain | birthplace | new york albert jennings fountain | birthplace | staten island","colonel albert jennings fountain (october 23, 1838 – disappeared february 1, 1896) was an american attorney who served in the texas senate and the new mexico house of representatives.following a purge of corruption among cattle rustlers that fountain investigated and prosecuted, he and his eight-year-old son henry disappeared near white sands, new mexico territory.fountain almost immediately joined the new mexico volunteers because of the ongoing indian wars.on his recovery, fountain was discharged as a brevet captain.fountain settled in el paso, texas, working for the united states property commission, which investigated and disposed of former confederate property."

"alberto teisaire (20 may 1891 – 11 september 1963) was an argentine naval officer and vice president of argentina.he enrolled in the argentine naval academy in 1908 and, upon graduation in 1912, was accepted to the united states naval academy.there, he was commissioned as a submarine officer in the u.s. navy, during world war i.returning to argentina, he married duilia fayo lonne and was eventually named commander of the navy's flagship, the historic sarmiento frigate.teisaire later taught at the argentine naval academy and held numerous policy-making posts in that service, including ones in the naval requisitions department, the argentine naval delegations in the united states and europe, as head of the navy's river fleet (1938), and as assistant director of the important navy mechanics' school, in 1940, where he specialized in the instruction of navigation and hydrology.he became a reliable ally of the new war and labor minister, col. juan perón, whose support of organized labor and their platform had provoked growing rivalries within the military regime.teisaire became perón's most prominent ally in the government when, in july, he was named interior minister (at the time, overseeing law enforcement).he retired as rear admiral in 1945 to pursue a seat in the argentine senate, ahead of the february 1946 general elections.elected as senator on perón's labor party ticket, teisaire represented the city of buenos aires, a district normally leaning towards perón's chief opposition, the centrist ucr.he, however, did not enjoy support from the president's influential first lady, eva perón, who refused his request to take part in her 1947 'rainbow tour' because (in her words): 'i did not want that fruitcake creating a scandal in paris, when for that i already have paquito, who at least makes me laugh.'teisaire did well in his career in the senate, even so.he was named provisional president of the senate in 1947, and was reelected senator in 1951.he was elected to the constitutional assembly of 1949, which drafted a replacement of the 1853 constitution of argentina (reinstated in 1957).he was named head of the peronist party's superior council in 1952, effectively making him the third-most powerful member of the administration (after interior minister ángel borlenghi and perón, himself).teisaire introduced the lions club into argentina in 1954, and received the german order of merit.controversy surrounding the president's in-laws and political violence both by and against his peronist movement dominated headlines in the first half of 1953, and perón took the opportunity of upcoming legislative polls to test his popularity.the argentine constitution did not require it at the time, but a special election was announced to replace the late vice president, hortensio quijano, and perón nominated teisaire as his candidate for the post.the april 1954 elections increased the peronists' overwhelming majority in congress and elected teisaire vice president by a 30% margin of victory.following this success, perón began to dispense with his hitherto warm relations with the catholic church by banning a number of their organizations and periodicals, and with the unprecedented, december 22 legalization of divorce and prostitution.the vice president supported these moves, arguing that argentina's catholic majority were mostly non-practicing and, by extension, probably amenable to perón's push to limit their influence.the miscalculation proved fateful, however.the dispute damaged teisaire's influence among the largely conservative catholic navy commanders, who spitefully referred to the vice president as 'that freemason,' and soon destroyed military loyalty for the administration itself.a series of violent confrontations from june to september 1955 ended with perón's september 19 resignation and exile.his 'confession' was produced into a 12-minute propaganda film by the revolución libertadora, which ordered the footage shown in all movie theatres.","alberto teisaire | profession | rear admiral alberto teisaire | successor | isaac rojas alberto teisaire | birthplace | mendoza argentina alberto

"atlas ii was a member of the atlas family of launch vehicles, which evolved from the successful atlas missile program of the 1950s.the atlas ii was a direct evolution of the atlas i, featuring longer first stage tanks, higher-performing engines, and the option for strap-on solid rocket boosters.it was designed to launch payloads into low earth orbit, geosynchronous transfer orbit or geosynchronous orbit.sixty-three launches of the atlas ii, iia and iias models were carried out between 1991 and 2004; all sixty-three launches were successes, making the atlas ii a highly reliable space launch system.the atlas line was continued by the atlas iii, used between 2000 and 2005, and the atlas v which is still in use.additional commercial and u.s. government sales resulted in production increases leading to greater than 60 vehicles being produced and launched.atlas ii was developed from the atlas i and featured numerous upgrades over that vehicle.atlas ii was launched from launch complex 36 at cape canaveral space force station in florida as well as space launch complex 3e at vandenberg space force base in california.all launches were successful.the increased thrust, engine efficiency, and propellant capacity enabled the vehicle to lift payloads of 6,100 pounds (2,767 kg) into geostationary transfer orbit (gto), or more on later atlas ii variants.atlas ii also featured lower-cost electronics, an improved flight computer, and longer propellant tanks than its predecessor, atlas i.the stage was powered by 3 rs-56 rocket engines (derived from the rs-27 main engine of the delta ii rocket) burning 156 t (344,000 lb) of rp-1 and liquid oxygen.the two booster engines were the rs-56-oba variants (the complete assembly of both engines and the aft skirt was referred to as the ma-5a), with high thrust but moderate efficiency.the sustainer (center) engine was the rs-56-osa variant, featuring much less thrust but higher efficiency at high altitudes than the booster engines.the vernier engines used on the first stage of the atlas i (and all previous atlas models) were replaced by a hydrazine-fueled roll control system on atlas ii.this system, mounted on the interstage between the first and second stages, utilized small thrusters to control the vehicle's roll.compared to atlas i, the atlas ii first stage was 2.7 m (8 ft 10 in) taller.the atlas ii was the last atlas rocket to use the 'stage-and-a-half' technique, where it ignited all 3 rs-56 engines at liftoff and then jettisoned the 2 rs-56-oba side engines and their support structure during ascent.the two rs-56-oba engines were integrated into a single unit called the ma-5a and shared a common gas generator.they burned for approximately 164 seconds before being jettisoned, when acceleration reached approximately 5.0-5.5 g. the central sustainer engine on the first stage, an rs-56-osa, would burn for an additional 125 seconds after their jettison.it featured better efficiency at high altitudes than the rs-56-obas.the first stage also had the option to be fitted with 4 castor 4a solid rocket boosters as part of the iias version, each providing an additional 478.3 kn (107,500 lbf) of thrust for 56 seconds.the first two boosters were ignited at liftoff, and the other two were ignited after the first two burnt out.both pairs of boosters were jettisoned shortly after their respective burns.centaur ii featured 2 rl-10a-3-3a engines, burning liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen.it featured propellant tanks 0.9 meters longer than its predecessor, centaur i, giving the stage more propellant and therefore higher performance.due to the super cold propellants inside centaur, foam insulation was installed onto the outer metal skin on the stage to help mitigate propellant boiloff inside the tank.","atlas ii | countryorigin | united states atlas ii | finalflight | 1998-03-16 atlas ii | launchsite | vandenberg air force base atlas ii | diameter | 304 m atlas ii | launchsite | spaceport florida launch complex 36","atlas ii was a member of the atlas family of launch vehicles, which evolved from the successful atlas missile program of the 1950s.sixty-three launches of the atlas ii, iia and iias models were carried out between 1991 and 2004; all sixty-three launches were successes, making the atlas ii a highly reliable space launch system.atlas ii was developed from the atlas i and featured numerous upgrades over that vehicle.atlas ii was launched from launch complex 36 at cape canaveral space force station in florida as well as space launch complex 3e at vandenberg space force base in california."

included on the 35th, 36th and 37th floors; these are, with restrictions, open to the public.the tower was originally proposed at nearly 200 m (656 ft) tall but its design was scaled down after concerns about its visual impact on the nearby st paul's cathedral and tower of london.it was subsequently approved in 2006 with the revised height.even after the height reduction there were continued concerns from heritage groups about its impact on the surrounding area.the secretary of state for communities and local government, ruth kelly, called in the project for another public inquiry.the project was consequently the subject of a public inquiry; in 2007 this ruled in the developers' favour and the building was granted full planning permission.in 2015 it was awarded the carbuncle cup for the worst new building in the uk in the previous 12 months.in 2013 paul finch of the design council cabe said he regretted supporting the project during the public inquiry, saying that the developers 'made a mess of it' and were architects of their own misfortune.in july 2017, the hong kong food company lee kum kee groups agreed to purchase the building from land securities and canary

the southern end of london bridge.in 2007, one of the upper floors was used in the drama series party animals.demolition of the building was completed in 2008.despite the top-down method of construction, it was not demolished from the bottom-up, as a temporary structure was built, allowing keltbray, the demolition contractor, to demolish the building from the top down.the garden spans the top three floors, which are accessible by two express lifts and include a large viewing area, terrace, bar and two restaurants.fourteen double-deck lifts (seven low-rise up to the 20th floor, seven high-rise above the 20th floor) serve the main office floors of the building.the south side of the structure is ventilated externally to improve efficiency and decrease solar gain, whilst the east and west faces incorporate extensive solar shading.there is a southern entrance in addition to the main northern entrance set back from fenchurch street.piling and ground works were completed in june 2009.in january 2011, work at the basement level of the tower began.by the end of october 2011, the building was rising above street-level.december 2011 saw the tower's core begin to rise.the

commercial space launch facility located at the southern tip of nasa's wallops flight facility on wallops island in virginia, just east of the delmarva peninsula and south of chincoteague, virginia, united states.it is owned and operated by the virginia spaceport authority.this initiative was done from the recommendations of the batten college at old dominion university, with dr. billie reed, a longtime professor at the university, installed as its executive director.in 1997, virginia space entered into a reimbursable space act agreement with nasa, which provided for permitted use of land on nasa wallops island for the mars launch pads.virginia space also applied for and was granted an faa license to launch to orbit.this led to the establishment of the virginia space flight center, located on the southern portion of nasa wallops island.at the time, the center served as a collective partnership that included the national aeronautic and space administration (nasa), old dominion university, and virginia space.in july 2003, governors robert ehrlich of maryland and mark warner of virginia signed an agreement that directed the secretary of commerce and trade of virginia and the secretary of business and economic development of maryland to form a working group to develop a concept and implementation plan for joint governance, operation, and administration of the commercial spaceport at wallops island.as such, the virginia space flight center was renamed as the mid-atlantic regional spaceport (mars), reflecting the location of the facilities as opposed to the singular state.mars is approved for launch azimuths from 38° to 60°, making it an ideal location from which to launch to the international space station (iss).in 2007, nasa selected virginia-based orbital sciences corporation (northrop grumman) to participate in the commercial orbital transportation services (cots) program and then selected orbital for a follow-on commercial resupply service (crs) contract to build and demonstrate a new rocket, antares, to resupply the international space station (iss).the crs contract authorized eight missions from 2012 to 2015 carrying approximately 20,000 kg of cargo to iss as well as disposal of waste.these launches were to take place from the new state-of-the-art mars pad 0a.on mars pad 0b, vcsfa made modifications and upgrades to launch the nasa lunar atmosphere and dust environment explorer (ladee) mission to the moon in mid-2013 on a new orbital sciences minotaur v launch vehicle.also in mid-2013, the usaf launched ors-3 from mars pad 0b.mars is one of only several sites licensed by the faa office of commercial space transportation to launch to orbit.additionally, virginia is home to the nasa langley research center (larc) and national reconnaissance office (nro), and as such is a recipient of a large portion of the federal budget for space.finally, according to the information technology and innovation foundation, virginia ranks first in the number of scientists and engineers as a percentage of the workforce, third in the concentration of high-tech jobs as a percentage of the workforce, and sixth in non-industry investment in research and development.the launch pad 0a (lp-0a) was built for the conestoga rocket, which made its only flight in 1995.the launch tower was subsequently demolished in september 2008, and has now been rebuilt for use by the northrop grumman innovation systems antares.the pad modifications for antares included the construction of a horizontal integration facility for launcher/payload mating and

"asilomar conference grounds is a conference center built for the young women's christian association (ywca).it is located east of what was known as moss beach on the western tip of the monterey peninsula in pacific grove, california.between 1913 and 1929 architect julia morgan designed and built 16 of the buildings on the property, of which 11 are still standing.in 1956 it became part of the state division of beaches and parks of california's department of natural resources, and moss beach was renamed asilomar state beach.asilomar is a derivation of the spanish phrase asilo al mar, meaning asylum or refuge by the sea.it is the native homeland of the rumsen ohlone people.probably because they had outgrown the space, and because the ywca had a goal of purchasing grounds, phoebe apperson hearst hosted the 1912 conference at her hacienda in pleasanton, california, with all proceeds of that year's conference going toward the purchase of a permanent home.a resulting ywca committee persuaded the pacific improvement company of pacific grove, california to deed 30 acres (120,000 m2) to the ywca in 1912.in early 1913 the ywca announced that julia morgan, already at work on the oakland ywca building, would design the campgrounds.construction began in the spring of 1913 and in august 1913 the social hall and the lodging longhouses opened with nearly 300 girls in attendance.merrill hall, the last of morgan's designs for asilomar, was dedicated in 1928.several other prominent california women including ellen browning scripps, mrs. warren olney jr. and mary sroufe merrill were involved in the creation of the retreat.the winning entry in the naming contest was by helen salisbury, a stanford student.her entry created a portmanteau from two spanish words: asilo and mar.the state of california acquired asilomar in 1956.john carl warnecke designed 7 new buildings to expand the grounds.asilomar was declared a national historic landmark in 1987 for its role in women's recreation, the development of the ywca, and the resort nature of nearby monterey, california.it is currently used primarily as a conference center for hire but is also open to individual lodging guests and is frequently used for family reunions and other social events.the grounds are open to the public.from 1956 until 1994 several non-profit corporations managed the conference grounds in cooperation with california state parks.delaware north companies parks and resorts operated the park from 1997 to 2007 under a concessionaire agreement.aramark won a new 20-year operating contract in january 2009 and began operations there in september of that year.to preserve the rustic atmosphere of the resort, there are no telephones or televisions in any of the rooms.however, wi-fi has recently been installed throughout the property.in october, 2012 construction began to improve asilomar's accessibility under americans with disabilities guidelines.this includes replacement of several old, worn, and rugged asphalt pathways and the construction of new paths made of brick pavers.construction work continued into 2014 and included modifications to improve interior access to several rooms as well as the exterior improvements.","asilomar conference grounds | architect | julia morgan julia morgan | significantbuilding | los angeles herald-examiner julia morgan | significantbuilding | riverside art museum julia morgan | significantproject | hearst castle julia morgan | birthplace | california","in early 1913 the ywca announced that julia morgan, already at work on the oakland ywca building, would design the campgrounds.merrill hall, the last of morgan's designs for asilomar, was dedicated in 1928."

moran bailey, the powerful chairman of the democratic party of connecticut.in 1952 he made an unsuccessful bid for election to fill a vacancy in the united states senate, losing to prescott bush.as governor (1955–1961), ribicoff soon faced the challenge of rebuilding his state in the wake of devastating floods that occurred in the late summer and fall of 1955, and he successfully led bipartisan efforts to aid damaged areas.ribicoff then successfully argued for increased state spending on schools and welfare programs.easily reelected in 1958, ribicoff had by now become active on the national political scene.a longtime friend of massachusetts senator john f. kennedy, ribicoff had nominated his fellow new englander for vice president at the 1956 democratic national convention and was one of the first public officials to endorse kennedy's presidential campaign.although he managed to secure a revision of the 1935 social security act that liberalized requirements for aid to dependent children, ribicoff was unable to gain approval for the administration's medicare and school aid bills.ribicoff reflected that he had sought out the position of hew secretary mainly out of concern for education and 'realized that the problems of health and welfare were so overriding that education was relegated to the back burner' during his tenure."

"ethiopians are the native inhabitants of ethiopia, as well as the global diaspora of ethiopia.ethiopians constitute several component ethnic groups, many of which are closely related to ethnic groups in neighboring eritrea and other parts of the horn of africa.the first documented use of the name 'ethiopia' from greek name 'αἰθίοψ' (ethiopian) was in the 4th century during the reign of aksumite king ezana.there were three ethnolinguistic groups in the kingdom of aksum; semitic, cushitic, and nilo-saharan (ancestors of the modern-day kunama and nara).the kingdom of aksum remained a geopolitically influential entity until the pillage of its capital — also named axum — in the 10th century by queen gudit.nevertheless, the core aksumite civilization was preserved and continued into the successive zagwe dynasty.by this time, new ethnic groups emerged – the tigrayans and amharas.during the solomonic period, the latter established major political and cultural influence in the horn of africa.in the late middle ages, muslim states were established, including the sultanate of ifat, and its successor the adal sultanate.discontent with territory and religious dominance led to intense war between the ethiopian empire, the christian state, (consisting of the amhara, tigrayan, soddo gurage, and agaw ethnic groups) and the muslim state adal sultanate (consisting of semitic speaking harari formally known as the harla people and the argobba).during the 1600s, there were large-scale migrations of the oromo from the south into the highlands and also alongside the somali into adal or what was known as 'hararghe' (land of the hararis).a period of stability and peace continued through the gondarine period in 16th and 17th century, but ethiopia was divided into de facto autonomous regions in the mid-18th century.during this time, ethiopia was nominally ruled by an emperor who functioned as a puppet monarch of various regional lords and noblemen.this era was known as the zemene mesafint or 'era of the princes'.emperor tewodros ii managed to unify the decentralized ethiopian empire in 1855 and inaugurated a process of modernization that continued into successive regimes, resurrecting the empire as a regional power.in the late 19th-century during the reign of menelik ii, against the backdrop of the scramble for africa, the notion of ethiopian national integrity was strengthened by italian efforts at colonization.the italian invasion engendered a formidable national resistance, culminating in the battle of adwa in 1896 which resulted in a major ethiopian victory against the italians.the resulting treaty of addis ababa ended the italo-ethiopian war, and along with the nation's contemporaneous territorial expansion, largely established the modern-day boundaries of ethiopia.present-day ethiopia has a diverse population with many different languages and ethnic groups.ethiopians speak afro-asiatic languages (semitic, cushitic, and omotic) and nilo-saharan languages.the oromo, amhara, somali and tigrayans make up more than three-quarters (75%) of the population, but there are more than 80 different ethnic groups within ethiopia.some of these have as few as 10,000 members.it is estimated to be 3.5 million years old.in october 2015, scientists found a 4,500 years ago lived man called mota in a cave in southern central ethiopia.atypical to euroasians, which were believed reached the region after him, mota's genetic variants was not as 'light-colored eye or skin', resembles the modern aari tribes that live in the southern area of the country.another research suggests that euroasians arrived in the region resembles modern-day sardinians, or likely lbk culture of antiquity.by proofing mota has no european genome, archeologist theorized the near east population migrated to africa in 3,000 years ago.other evidence concluded that eurasian population made significant contribution as a result of back migration between 1,500 and 3,500 years ago.","ethiopia | leadername | mulatu teshome ethiopia | leadername | hailemariam desalegn addis ababa | ispartof | addis ababa stadium addis ababa city hall | location | addis ababa addis ababa | country | ethiopia","the resulting treaty of addis ababa ended the italo-ethiopian war, and along with the nation's contemporaneous territorial expansion, largely established the modern-day boundaries of ethiopia." "alberto teisaire (20 may 1891 – 11 september 1963) was an argentine naval officer and vice president of argentina.he enrolled in the argentine naval academy in 1908 and, upon graduation in 1912, was accepted to the united states naval academy.there, he was commissioned as a submarine officer in the u.s. navy, during world war i.returning to argentina, he married duilia fayo lonne and was eventually named commander of the navy's flagship, the historic sarmiento frigate.teisaire later taught at the argentine naval academy and held numerous policy-making posts in that service, including ones in the naval requisitions department, the argentine naval delegations in the united states and europe, as head of the navy's river fleet (1938), and as assistant director of the important navy mechanics' school, in 1940, where he specialized in the instruction of navigation and hydrology.he became a reliable ally of the new war and labor minister, col. juan perón, whose support of organized labor and their platform had provoked growing rivalries within the military regime.teisaire became perón's most prominent ally in the government when, in july, he was named interior minister (at the time, overseeing law enforcement).he retired as rear admiral in 1945 to pursue a seat in the argentine senate, ahead of the february 1946 general elections.elected as senator on perón's labor party ticket, teisaire represented the city of buenos aires, a district normally leaning towards perón's chief opposition, the centrist ucr.he, however, did not enjoy support from the president's influential first lady, eva perón, who refused his request to take part in her 1947 'rainbow tour' because (in her words): 'i did not want that fruitcake creating a scandal in paris, when for that i already have paquito, who at least makes me laugh.'teisaire did well in his career in the senate, even so.he was named provisional president of the senate in 1947, and was reelected senator in 1951.he was elected to the constitutional assembly of 1949, which drafted a replacement of the 1853 constitution of argentina (reinstated in 1957).he was named head of the peronist party's superior council in 1952, effectively making him the third-most powerful member of the administration (after interior minister ángel borlenghi and perón, himself).teisaire introduced the lions club into argentina in 1954, and received the german order of merit.controversy surrounding the president's in-laws and political violence both by and against his peronist movement dominated headlines in the first half of 1953, and perón took the opportunity of upcoming legislative polls to test his popularity.the argentine constitution did not require it at the time, but a special election was announced to replace the late vice president, hortensio quijano, and perón nominated teisaire as his candidate for the post.the april 1954 elections increased the peronists' overwhelming majority in congress and elected teisaire vice president by a 30% margin of victory.following this success, perón began to dispense with his hitherto warm relations with the catholic church by banning a number of their organizations and periodicals, and with the unprecedented, december 22 legalization of divorce and prostitution.the vice president supported these moves, arguing that argentina's catholic majority were mostly non-practicing and, by extension, probably amenable to perón's push to limit their influence.the miscalculation proved fateful, however.the dispute damaged teisaire's influence among the largely conservative catholic navy commanders, who spitefully referred to the vice president as 'that freemason,' and soon destroyed military loyalty for the administration itself.a series of violent

"1634: the ram rebellion is the seventh published work in the 1632 alternate history book series, and is the third work to establish what is best considered as a 'main plot line or thread' of historical speculative focus that are loosely organized and classified geographically.the initial main thread is called the 'western and north-central europe thread' (encompassing northern and western germany, denmark, england, france, the low countries, sweden and the baltic); the second plot line, encompassing events in italy, spain, the mediterranean region, and france, the 'south european thread', and this book can be considered the starting novel of the 'south-central/south-east thread' being set in southern germany, austria, bavaria, and bohemia.this geographically organized plot thread actually began in ring of fire in flint's novelette 'the wallenstein gambit' which is set in bohemia, austria, and germany, which tied into stories in various grantville gazettes.unlike most works in the 1632 series, much of this book is written from the standpoint of common people 'in the street', including germans trying to cope with grantville, west virginia, up-timers trying to cope with their new world around grantville, and both trying to deal with the problems of two widely different cultures meeting in the new united states of europe.these merging dynamics are the milieu shaping stories flint felt necessary to include even though they are set in 1631–1632.their impact extends throughout the book and into 1634, as well as across political boundaries and battle lines as the historical imperatives developed in this book extend into the direct sequel 1634: the bavarian crisis.the short novel that concludes the work begins in late august 1633 and overlaps many of the shorter works earlier in the book.two of the three other books set in 1634 refer to the events in the work (usually as the 'troubles in franconia') setting its canonical place in the 'greater' neo-historical international politics covered in the other two works.in the flint stories which are sandwiched around the birdie tales, mike stearns goes back to school under the tutelage of melissa mailey.stearns has a problem, he has to get a handle on likely complications from the local population, as the stories are set just a few days after he is elected as chairman of the emergency committee.as a result, mailey gives stearns several very thick history books on european history in the era.birdie newhouse has an immediate problem, he's a farmer with most of his farm's arable land 300 years off and a continent away.the stories by gorg huff and paula goodlett explore the alien land practices and ownership of down-time germany as birdie seeks to gain additional lands.land sales are rare; worse, the lawyers are in control and there are three general levels of vested interest: the owners-in-fact, a variable number of other claimants, and the tenants.the tenants have certain rights and obligations over and above monetary rent while leases are generally for the lesser of three generations or 99 years.in between the owner in fact and the tenants is usually a monetary transaction which gives the rents to any number of claimants—depending upon the finances of the landholding family.the claimants all have a say in the farm operation to some extent, as do the occupants of the farm villages, which also have the right to disapprove or accept new co-farmers, for the land is farmed cooperatively with another set of obligations and entitlements.birdie can't just go and buy a piece of land, he has to buy it from three different and diverse groups of people... and get them all to agree to terms.","1634: the ram rebellion | mediatype | e-book 1634: the ram rebellion | numberofpages | 512 1634: the ram rebellion | author | virginia demarce 1634: the ram rebellion | isbn number | 1-4165-2060-0","unlike most works in the 1632 series, much of this book is written from the standpoint of common people 'in the street', including germans trying to cope with grantville, west virginia, up-timers trying to cope with their new world around grantville, and both trying to deal with the problems of two widely different cultures meeting in the new united states of europe."

"alberto teisaire (20 may 1891 – 11 september 1963) was an argentine naval officer and vice president of argentina.he enrolled in the argentine naval academy in 1908 and, upon graduation in 1912, was accepted to the united states naval academy.there, he was commissioned as a submarine officer in the u.s. navy, during world war i.returning to argentina, he married duilia fayo lonne and was eventually named commander of the navy's flagship, the historic sarmiento frigate.teisaire later taught at the argentine naval academy and held numerous policy-making posts in that service, including ones in the naval requisitions department, the argentine naval delegations in the united states and europe, as head of the navy's river fleet (1938), and as assistant director of the important navy mechanics' school, in 1940, where he specialized in the instruction of navigation and hydrology.he became a reliable ally of the new war and labor minister, col. juan perón, whose support of organized labor and their platform had provoked growing rivalries within the military regime.teisaire became perón's most prominent ally in the government when, in july, he was named interior minister (at the time, overseeing law enforcement).he retired as rear admiral in 1945 to pursue a seat in the argentine senate, ahead of the february 1946 general elections.elected as senator on perón's labor party ticket, teisaire represented the city of buenos aires, a district normally leaning towards perón's chief opposition, the centrist ucr.he, however, did not enjoy support from the president's influential first lady, eva perón, who refused his request to take part in her 1947 'rainbow tour' because (in her words): 'i did not want that fruitcake creating a scandal in paris, when for that i already have paquito, who at least makes me laugh.'teisaire did well in his career in the senate, even so.he was named provisional president of the senate in 1947, and was reelected senator in 1951.he was elected to the constitutional assembly of 1949, which drafted a replacement of the 1853 constitution of argentina (reinstated in 1957).he was named head of the peronist party's superior council in 1952, effectively making him the third-most powerful member of the administration (after interior minister ángel borlenghi and perón, himself).teisaire introduced the lions club into argentina in 1954, and received the german order of merit.controversy surrounding the president's in-laws and political violence both by and against his peronist movement dominated headlines in the first half of 1953, and perón took the opportunity of upcoming legislative polls to test his popularity.the argentine constitution did not require it at the time, but a special election was announced to replace the late vice president, hortensio quijano, and perón nominated teisaire as his candidate for the post.the april 1954 elections increased the peronists' overwhelming majority in congress and elected teisaire vice president by a 30% margin of victory.following this success, perón began to dispense with his hitherto warm relations with the catholic church by banning a number of their organizations and periodicals, and with the unprecedented, december 22 legalization of divorce and prostitution.the vice president supported these moves, arguing that argentina's catholic majority were mostly non-practicing and, by extension, probably amenable to perón's push to limit their influence.the miscalculation proved fateful, however.the dispute damaged teisaire's influence among the largely conservative catholic navy commanders, who spitefully referred to the vice president as 'that freemason,' and soon destroyed military loyalty for the administration itself.a series of violent confrontations from june to september 1955 ended with perón's september 19 resignation and exile.his 'confession' was produced into a 12-minute propaganda film by the revolución libertadora, which ordered the footage shown in all movie theatres.","alberto teisaire | office workedat workedas | provisional president of the argentine senate alberto teisaire | successor | isaac rojas alberto

bishop of new york.he asks katherine to give a benefit concert at the cathedral of st. john the divine.it turns out to be an unexpected challenge, full of new friends and mysterious dangers.during the novel katherine is befriended by several recurring characters from other l'engle novels, including mimi oppenheimer from a winter's love, josiah 'dave' davidson from the young unicorns, and suzy austin (now dr. suzy davidson) from the austin family series (which l'engle called her 'chronos' novels).the cathedral of saint john the divine, which figures prominently in the plot of a severed wasp, is also the setting for the 1968 l'engle novel the young unicorns.the author herself was librarian and writer-in-residence at the same cathedral for several decades.this story takes place last in the l'engle canon of 'kairos' and 'chronos' stories, as it features the adult suzy austin and the adult josiah davidson.no novel published after a severed wasp took place during or after the events

"66391 moshup , provisional designation 1999 kw4, is a binary asteroid, classified as a near-earth object and potentially hazardous asteroid of the aten group, approximately 1.3 kilometers in diameter.it was discovered on 20 may 1999, by lincoln near-earth asteroid research (linear) at the lincoln laboratory's experimental test site in socorro, new mexico, united states.it is a mercury-crosser that comes extremely close to the sun at a perihelion of 0.2 au.its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.69 and an inclination of 39° with respect to the ecliptic.a first precovery was taken by 2mass at the fred lawrence whipple observatory in 1998, extending the body's observation arc by one year prior to its official discovery observation at socorro.as a potentially hazardous asteroid, it has an earth minimum orbital intersection distance of 0.0138 au (2,060,000 km) which corresponds to 5.4 lunar distances.on 25 may 2036, it will pass 0.0155 au (2,320,000 km) from earth.it was named from mohegan legend, after moshup, a giant who lived in the coastal areas of new england.the asteroid's companion is named squannit, after the wife of moshup and a medicine woman of the makiawisug (little people).the official naming citation was published by the minor planet center on 27 august 2019 (m.p.c.115894).the moon, named squannit and designated s/2001 (66391) 1, is approximately 360 metres in diameter, and orbits its primary in every 16 hours at a mean-distance of 2.6 kilometers.the presence of a companion was suggested by photometric observations made by pravec and šarounová and was confirmed by radar observations from arecibo observations and announced on 23 may 2001 (also see below).based on radar imaging, squannit's dimensions are estimated to be 595 × 450 × 343 meters.the observations were taken from may 21–23, 2001, by lance a. m. benner, steven j. ostro, jon d. giorgini, raymond f. jurgens, jean-luc margot and michael c. nolan.the collaborative asteroid lightcurve link adopts a diameter of 1.3 kilometers and derives an albedo 0.26 with an absolute magnitude of 16.5.the shapes of the two bodies and their dynamics are complex.with a dimension of approximately 1.42 × 1.36 × 1.18 kilometers for a simple triaxial ellipsoid, the asteroid has an oblate shape, which is dominated by an equatorial ridge at the body's potential-energy minimum.this bizarre property of the equatorial region means that it is close to breakup: raising a particle a meter above the surface would put it into orbit.as seen in the image at above right, the gravitational effects between the moon and the asteroid create a gigantic mountain extending in the equatorial plane around the entire asteroid.it was the first asteroid to be described as 'muffin-shaped', which is now understood to be a very common shape for asteroids in critical rotation, including 101955 bennu and 162173 ryugu.lightcurve analysis gave a rotation period of 2.7650 hours with a brightness variation of 0.12 magnitude (u=3).","66391 1999 kw4 | epoch | 2004-07-14 66391 1999 kw4 | escapevelocity | 0 66391 1999 kw4 | orbitalperiod | 162447000 66391 1999 kw4 | apoapsis | 1621640918388 kilometres 66391 1999

"antonis samaras (greek: αντώνης σαμαράς, pronounced [anˈdonis samaˈɾas]; born 23 may 1951) is a greek politician who served as 14th prime minister of greece from 2012 to 2015.a member of the new democracy party, he was its president from 2009 until 2015.samaras started his national political career as minister of finance in 1989; he served as minister of foreign affairs from 1989 to 1992 (with a brief interruption in 1990) and minister of culture in 2009.samaras was previously best known for a 1993 controversy in which he effectively caused the new democracy government, of which he was a member, to fall from power.in spite of this, he rejoined the party in 2004 and was elected to its leadership in a closely fought intra-party election in late 2009.he was the seventh party leader since it was founded in 1974.in 2023, he made controversial statements against both the lgbtqi+ people and the migrants, suggesting that 'they are tearing europe apart'.his brother, alexander, is an architect.his paternal uncle, george samaras, was a long-standing member of parliament for messinia in the 1950s and 1960s.samaras grew up among the athens well-connected families, playing tennis.at the age of 17, he won the greek teen tennis championship.he attended school in the athens college (founded by his maternal great-grandfather, stefanos delta and emmanouil benakis, delta's father-in-law) and graduated from amherst college in 1974 with a degree in economics, and then from harvard university in 1976 with an mba.samaras and former prime minister george papandreou were dormitory roommates during their student years at amherst college, but became bitter political rivals.he is married and has a daughter and a son.in 1989 he became minister of finance, later advancing to become the minister of foreign affairs in the new democracy government of prime minister konstantinos mitsotakis (1990–1993), from which post he caused the macedonia naming dispute to ignite.in a meeting of the greek political leaders under the president of the republic on the naming dispute on 13 april 1992, samaras presented his own conditions for the solution of the crisis.these were rejected by both the president of the republic, konstantinos karamanlis as well as the prime minister, konstantinos mitsotakis.samaras was subsequently removed from minister of foreign affairs.the defection of one member of parliament from new democracy to samaras' party caused the government's fall from power in 1993.political spring gained 4.9% of the vote in the 1993 general election, earning ten seats in the hellenic parliament.they gained 8.7% in the elections in the 1994 european parliament elections, earning two seats.its decline started in the 1996 general election, when it gained 2.94 per cent, just below the 3 per cent threshold necessary to enter parliament.they participated in the 1999 european parliament elections, but only got 2.3%, which was not enough to elect meps.before the 2004 general election, samaras dissolved his party, rejoined new democracy and he was elected a member of the european parliament (mep) in the 2004 european elections.in the 2007 general election he was elected to the hellenic parliament for messinia and consequently resigned from the european parliament.he was succeeded by margaritis schinas.in january 2009 he was appointed minister of culture following a government reshuffle.in this capacity he inaugurated the new acropolis museum in july 2009.he was reelected in messenia in 2009.after new democracy resoundingly lost the 2009 legislative election, kostas karamanlis resigned as head of the party, prompting a leadership race, and samaras ran for the post.early polls showed he was running neck and neck with the perceived initial favorite dora bakoyanni, the former foreign minister and former athens mayor.","antonis samaras | birthplace | athens adonis georgiadis | inofficewhileprimeminister | antonis samaras antonis samaras | inofficewhileprimeminister | konstantinos mitsotakis antonis samaras | hasdeputy | evangelos venizelos adonis georgiadis | successor | makis voridis","samaras grew up among the athens well-connected families, playing tennis.he attended school in the athens college (founded by his maternal great-grandfather, stefanos delta and emmanouil benakis, delta's father-in-law) and graduated from amherst college in 1974 with a degree in economics, and then from harvard university in 1976 with an mba.samaras and former prime minister george papandreou were dormitory roommates during their student years at amherst college, but became bitter political rivals."

sanderson, published in october 2007 by scholastic press.the book is named after its main character, alcatraz smedry.after receiving a bag of sand for his thirteenth birthday, he is involved in a very strange set of events.the book starts with alcatraz setting fire to his foster parents' kitchen.it is revealed that he has been in countless foster homes, always ending up with alcatraz 'destroying' things precious to the people taking care of him.ms. fletcher, alcatraz's personal caseworker, arrives and scolds him for destroying his foster parents' kitchen.the next day an old man arrives at the house and claims to be his grandfather, telling alcatraz that he has a special, powerful talent, breaking things.after the old man finds alcatraz's bag of sand missing, he and alcatraz must go on a mission to recover it at all cost from the evil librarians, secret rulers of the world.these freedom fighters include alcatraz's grandfather, leavenworth smedry, usually just referred to as 'grandpa smedry'; bastille, grandpa's bodyguard and a crystin knight; sing sing - sing for short - alcatraz's polynesian cousin; and quentin, another cousin.the librarians include shasta / ms. fletcher, alcatraz's case worker and radrian blackburn, a dark oculator.alcatraz has the talent of breaking things.grandpa smedry, alcatraz's grandfather, has the power to arrive late.as such, he is always running behind the clock.but his power also allows him to arrive late to other things, like bullets, which always miss him, and his blood can arrive late to wounds so that he doesn't bleed to death.in his own words 'i've been arriving late to my own death for longer than you've been alive.'sing, alcatraz's cousin's talent is the ability to trip and fall to the ground.this helps when this is a sign of danger.quentin, another cousin, has the talent to speak gibberish or nonsensical phrases.his talent proves beneficial when he is captured by the librarians, as they cannot understand him and thus cannot gain important information from him, even through torture.it is through some of quentin's supposed gibberish that alcatraz is prompted to know what to do in future events.smedrys from ancient days had grand talents, though relatively unexplained.one could get unbelievable amounts of water on the ground when she did the dishes, which allowed her to end a drought.another could make rude noises at inappropriate moments, breaking enemies' concentration so they could not use weapons.if someone not related to the smedrys marries a smedry, the person marrying into the family gets their spouse's talent.a third alcatraz book, called alcatraz versus the knights of crystallia, was released on october 1, 2009, and the fourth book, alcatraz versus the shattered lens, was released on december 1, 2010.since scholastic only commissioned the first four books, and was unwilling to publish the fifth book, sanderson bought back the rights to the series in early 2013.he later sold the series to tor books who then republished the series.the fifth book of the series, entitled the dark talent, was released september 6, 2016.tor books reprinted the first five books in a paperback box

comprising the mainland of the australian continent, the island of tasmania, and numerous smaller islands.australia is the largest country by area in oceania and the world's sixth-largest country.australia is the oldest, flattest, and driest inhabited continent, with the least fertile soils.it is a megadiverse country, and its size gives it a wide variety of landscapes and climates, with deserts in the centre, tropical rainforests in the north-east, tropical savannas in the north, and mountain ranges in the south-east.the ancestors of aboriginal australians began arriving from south-east asia approximately 65,000 years ago, during the last ice age.arriving by sea, they settled the continent and had formed approximately 250 distinct language groups by the time of european settlement, maintaining some of the longest known continuing artistic and religious traditions in the world.australia's written history commenced with the european maritime exploration of australia.the dutch navigator willem janszoon was the first known european to reach australia, in 1606.in 1770, the british explorer james cook mapped and claimed the east coast of australia for great britain, and the first fleet of british ships arrived at sydney in 1788 to establish the penal colony of new south wales.the european population grew in subsequent decades, and by the end of the 1850s gold rush, most of the continent had been explored by european settlers and an additional five self-governing british colonies established.democratic parliaments were gradually established through the 19th century, culminating with a vote for the federation of the six colonies and foundation of the commonwealth of australia on 1 january 1901.this began a process of increasing autonomy from the united kingdom, highlighted by the statute of westminster adoption act 1942, and culminating in the australia act 1986.australia is a federal parliamentary constitutional monarchy, comprising six states and ten territories.australia's population of nearly 27 million is highly urbanised and heavily concentrated on the eastern seaboard.canberra is the nation's capital, while its most populous city and financial centre is sydney.the next four largest cities are melbourne, brisbane, perth, and adelaide.it is ethnically diverse and multicultural, the product of large-scale immigration, with almost half of the population having one parent born overseas.australia's abundant natural resources and well-developed international trade relations are crucial to the country's economy, which generates its income from various sources including services, mining exports, banking, manufacturing, agriculture and international education.australia ranks amongst the highest in the world for quality of life, health, education, economic freedom, civil liberties and political rights.australia has a highly developed market economy and one of the highest per capita incomes globally.australia is a regional power, and has the world's thirteenth-highest military expenditure.it is a member of international groupings including the united nations; the g20; the oecd; the world trade organization; asia-pacific economic cooperation; the pacific islands forum; the pacific community the commonwealth of nations; and the defence/security organisations anzus, aukus, and the five eyes.it is a major non-nato ally of the united states.several sixteenth century cartographers used the word australia on maps, but not to identify modern australia.when europeans began visiting and mapping australia in the 17th century, the name terra australiscode: lat promoted to code: la was naturally applied to the new territories.until the early 19th century, australia was best known as new holland, a name first applied by the dutch explorer abel tasman in 1644 (as nieuw-hollandcode: nld promoted to code: nl ) and subsequently anglicised.terra australiscode: lat promoted to code: la still saw occasional usage, such as in scientific texts.","austria | leadername | doris bures alfons gorbach | birthplace | imst alfons gorbach | deathplace | graz austria | language | austrian german

approximately 250 kilometers (160 miles) in diameter.it is a member of the sylvia family and located within the cybele group.it was discovered on 17 november 1868, by english astronomer norman pogson at madras observatory, india, and named after camilla, queen of the volsci in roman mythology.the x-type asteroid is a rare trinary asteroid with two minor-planet moons discovered in 2001 and 2016, respectively.it is elongated in shape and has a short rotation period of 4.8 hours.a large number of rotational lightcurves of have been obtained from photometric observations since the 1980s.best rated results gave a short rotation period of 4.844 hours with a brightness amplitude between 0.32 and 0.53 magnitude.lightcurve analysis indicates that camilla's pole most likely points towards ecliptic coordinates (β, λ) = (+51°, 72°) with a 10° uncertainty, which gives it an axial tilt of 29°.follow-up modeling of photometric data gave similar results.according to the space-based surveys carried out by the japanese akari satellite, the infrared astronomical satellite iras and the neowise mission of nasa's wide-field infrared survey explorer, as well as observations by the keck observatory and photometric modeling, camilla measures between 185 and 247 kilometers in diameter and its surface has an albedo between 0.160 and 0.294.it has been designated s/2001 (107) 1 but has not yet received an official name.later observations in september 2005 with the very large telescope (vlt) allowed the determination of an orbit.apart from data in infobox, the inclination was found to be 3 ± 1° with respect to an axis pointing towards (β, λ) = (+55°, 75°).given the ~10° uncertainty in the actual rotational axis of camilla, one can say that the orbit's inclination is less than 10°.the satellite is estimated to measure about 11 km in diameter.assuming a similar density to the primary, this would give it an approximate mass of ~1.5×1015 kg.it has a similar colour to the primary.it has the provisional designation s/2016 (107) 1.observations were taken between 29 may 2015 and 30 july 2016, using the vlt-sphere, the principal instrument attached to the 8-meter 'melipal' (ut3) unit of the vlt.on 3 out of 5 observation sessions, the new satellite could be detected.the body's orbit has a semi-major axis of 340 kilometers.107 camilla and s/2001 (107) 1, orbit data

"camilla (minor planet designation: 107 camilla) is one of the largest asteroids from the outermost edge of the asteroid belt, approximately 250 kilometers (160 miles) in diameter.it is a member of the sylvia family and located within the cybele group.it was discovered on 17 november 1868, by english astronomer norman pogson at madras observatory, india, and named after camilla, queen of the volsci in roman mythology.the x-type asteroid is a rare trinary asteroid with two minor-planet moons discovered in 2001 and 2016, respectively.it is elongated in shape and has a short rotation period of 4.8 hours.a large number of rotational lightcurves of have been obtained from photometric observations since the 1980s.best rated results gave a short rotation period of 4.844 hours with a brightness amplitude between 0.32 and 0.53 magnitude.lightcurve analysis indicates that camilla's pole most likely points towards ecliptic coordinates (β, λ) = (+51°, 72°) with a 10° uncertainty, which gives it an axial tilt of 29°.follow-up modeling of photometric data gave similar results.according to the space-based surveys carried out by the japanese akari satellite, the infrared astronomical satellite iras and the neowise mission of nasa's wide-field infrared survey explorer, as well as observations by the keck observatory and photometric modeling, camilla measures between 185 and 247 kilometers in diameter and its surface has an albedo between 0.160 and 0.294.it has been designated s/2001 (107) 1 but has not yet received an official name.later observations in september 2005 with the very large telescope (vlt) allowed the determination of an orbit.apart from data in infobox, the inclination was found to be 3 ± 1° with respect to an axis pointing towards (β, λ) = (+55°, 75°).given the ~10° uncertainty in the actual rotational axis of camilla, one can say that the orbit's inclination is less than 10°.the satellite is estimated to measure about 11 km in diameter.assuming a similar density to the primary, this would give it an approximate mass of ~1.5×1015 kg.it has a similar colour to the primary.it has the provisional designation s/2016 (107) 1.observations were taken between 29 may 2015 and 30 july 2016, using the vlt-sphere, the principal instrument attached to the 8-meter 'melipal' (ut3) unit of the vlt.on 3 out of 5 observation sessions, the new satellite could be detected.the body's orbit has a semi-major axis of 340 kilometers.107 camilla and s/2001 (107) 1, orbit data website maintained by f. marchis.includes orbit diagrams.107 camilla at astdys-2, asteroids—dynamic site ephemeris · observation prediction · orbital info · proper elements · observational info 107 camilla at the jpl small-body database","107 camilla | discoverer | n r pogson n r pogson | deathplace | chennai n r pogson | birthplace | nottingham 107 camilla | discovered | 1868-11-17 n r pogson | nationality | england","it was discovered on 17 november 1868, by english astronomer norman pogson at madras observatory, india, and named after camilla, queen of the volsci in roman mythology."

these dialects generally resisted influence from the then-local common brittonic and british latin languages.however old english dialects were later influenced by old norse-speaking viking settlers and invaders starting in the 8th and 9th centuries.at the time, old norse even retained considerable mutual intelligibility with certain dialects of old english (especially more northern dialects).middle english began in the late 11th century after the norman conquest of england, when considerable old french (especially old norman french) and latin-derived vocabulary was incorporated into english over some three hundred years.early modern english began in the late 15th century with the start of the great vowel shift and the renaissance trend of borrowing further latin and greek words and roots into english, concurrent with the introduction of the printing press to london.this era notably culminated in the king james bible and the works of william shakespeare.the printing press greatly standardised english spelling, which has remained largely unchanged since then, despite a wide variety of later sound shifts in different english dialects.modern english grammar is the result of a gradual change from a typical indo-european dependent-marking pattern with a rich inflectional morphology and relatively free word order to a mostly analytic pattern with little inflection and a fairly fixed subject–verb–object word order.modern english relies more on auxiliary verbs and word order for the expression of complex tenses, aspects and moods, as well as passive constructions, interrogatives, and some negation.modern english has spread around the world since the 17th century as a consequence of the worldwide influence of the british empire and the united states of america.through all types of printed and electronic media in these countries, english has become the leading language of international discourse and the lingua franca in many regions and professional contexts such as science, navigation, and law.english is the most spoken language in the world and the third most spoken native language in the world, after standard chinese and spanish.it is the most widely learned second language and is either the official language or one of the official languages in 59 sovereign states.there are more people who have learned english as a second language than there are native speakers.as of 2005, it was estimated that there were over two billion speakers of english.english is the majority native language in the united kingdom, the united states, canada, australia, new zealand, and the republic of ireland (see anglosphere) and is widely spoken in some areas of the caribbean, africa, south asia, southeast asia, and oceania.it is a co-official language of the united nations, the european union, and many other international and regional organisations.english accounts for at least 70% of speakers of the germanic language branch of the indo-european family.","english language | spokenin | great britain united states | language | english language alcatraz versus the evil librarians | country | united states united states | ethnicgroup | native americans in the united states","the earliest forms of english, collectively known as old english or 'anglo-saxon', evolved from a group of north sea germanic dialects brought to great britain by anglo-saxon settlers in the 5th century;

noting that new york's albany was a commercial center located at the headwaters of the hudson river, they hoped that their town near the headwaters of the flint would prove to be just as successful.it proved to be nowhere near as prosperous.alexander shotwell laid out the town in 1836, and it was incorporated as a city by an act of the general assembly of georgia on december 27, 1838.tift was the city's leading entrepreneur for decades.an ardent booster, he promoted education, business, and railroad construction.during the civil war he provided naval supplies and helped build two ships.he opposed radical reconstruction inside the state and in congress, and was scornful of the yankee carpetbaggers who came in.historian john fair concludes that tift became 'more southern than many natives.'his pro-slavery attitudes before the war and his support for segregation afterward made him compatible with georgia's white elite.this area was developed for cotton cultivation by planters, who used numerous enslaved african americans to clear lands and process the cotton.as a result of the planters' acquisition of slave workers, by 1840 dougherty county's majority population was black, composed overwhelmingly of slaves.the market center for cotton plantations, albany was in a prime location for shipping cotton to other markets by steamboats.in 1858, tift hired horace king, a former slave and bridge builder, to construct a toll bridge over the river.king's bridge toll house still stands.already important as a shipping port, albany later became an important railroad hub in southwestern georgia.seven lines were constructed to the town.an exhibit on trains is located at the thronateeska heritage center in the former railroad station.in the early years following the war, styles, like tift, took great exception to the radical reconstruction program then in force, and advocated for a more moderate response based on his interpretation of georgia's rights under the constitution.styles backed 'constitutional reconstruction' advanced by benjamin h. hill and sought support for the idea from the national democratic party.while on a trip to atlanta in may 1868, to meet with democratic party leaders, styles took measure of the contemporary atlanta newspapers, and found them lacking.","albany georgia | ispartof | georgia us state united states | demonym | americans united states | ethnicgroup | asian americans united states | language | english language albany georgia | country | united states","albany ( awl-bə-nee) is a city in the u.s. state of georgia.located in southwest georgia, it is the principal city of the albany, georgia metropolitan area.alexander shotwell laid out the town in 1836, and it was incorporated as a city by an act of the general assembly of georgia on december 27, 1838.tift was the city's leading entrepreneur for decades.his pro-slavery attitudes before the war and his support for segregation afterward made him compatible with georgia's white elite.this area was developed for cotton cultivation by planters, who used numerous enslaved african americans to clear lands and process the cotton.already important as a shipping port, albany later became an important railroad hub in southwestern georgia.in the early years following the war, styles, like tift, took great exception to the radical reconstruction program then in force, and advocated for a more moderate response based on his interpretation of georgia's rights under the constitution."

british isles.northern ireland shares a land border with the republic of ireland; otherwise, the united kingdom is surrounded by the atlantic ocean, the north sea, the english channel, the celtic sea and the irish sea.the total area of the united kingdom is 242,495 square kilometres (93,628 sq mi), with an estimated 2023 population of over 68 million people.the united kingdom has evolved from a series of annexations, unions and separations of constituent countries over several hundred years.the treaty of union between the kingdom of england (which also included wales) and the kingdom of scotland in 1707 resulted in their unification to become the kingdom of great britain.its union in 1801 with the kingdom of ireland created the united kingdom of great britain and ireland.most of ireland seceded from the uk in 1922, leaving the present united kingdom of great britain and northern ireland, which formally adopted its name in 1927.the nearby isle of man, guernsey and jersey are not part of the uk, being crown dependencies, but the british government is responsible for their defence and international representation.the uk became the world's first industrialised country and was the foremost power during the 19th and early 20th centuries, a period of unchallenged global hegemony known as 'pax britannica'.the 14 british overseas territories are the last remnants of the british empire which, at its height in the 1920s, encompassed almost a quarter of the world's landmass and population, and was the largest empire in history.a part of the core anglophonic world, british influence can be observed in the language, culture, legal and political systems of many of its former colonies.the united kingdom is a constitutional monarchy and parliamentary democracy.its capital and largest city is london, the capital of england, a global city and financial centre with a metropolitan population of over 14 million people.edinburgh, cardiff and belfast are the national capitals of scotland, wales and northern ireland respectively.other major cities include birmingham, manchester, leeds, glasgow, sheffield and liverpool.scotland, wales, and northern ireland have their own devolved governments, each with varying powers.the uk is a great power, exerting significant economic, political, military, scientific and cultural influence in world affairs.it has the world's sixth-largest economy by nominal gross domestic product (gdp), and the tenth-largest by purchasing power parity.it is a recognised nuclear state and is the foremost military power in europe.the uk has been a permanent member of the united nations security council since its first session in 1946.it is a member of the commonwealth of nations, the council of europe, the g7, the oecd, the five eyes, nato and aukus, and was a member of the eu until its withdrawal with a free trade deal in 2020.the uk is set to join the cptpp, a major trade bloc in the indo-pacific, after negotiations regarding its accession concluded in march 2023.great britain encompassed the whole island, taking in the land north of the river forth known to the romans as caledonia in modern scotland (i.e.'greater' britain).in the middle ages, the name 'britain' was also applied to a small part of france now known as brittany.as a result, great britain (likely from the french 'grande bretagne') came into use to refer specifically to the island, with brittany often referred to as 'little britain'.","united kingdom | leadername | david cameron aids journal | country | united kingdom aids

"bangalore ( bang-gə-lor, -⁠lor), officially bengaluru (kannada pronunciation: [ˈbeŋgɐɭuːɾu] (listen)), is the capital and largest city of the southern indian state of karnataka.it has a population of more than 8 million and a metropolitan population of around 11 million, making it the third most populous city and fifth most populous urban agglomeration in india, as well as second largest urban agglomeration in south india, and the 27th largest city in the world.located on the deccan plateau, at a height of over 900 m (3,000 ft) above sea level, bangalore has a pleasant climate throughout the year, with its parks and green spaces earning it the reputation as the 'garden city' of india.its elevation is the highest among the major cities of india.the city's history dates back to around 890 ce, as found in a stone inscription found at the nageshwara temple in begur, bangalore.in 1537 ce, kempé gowdā, a feudal ruler under the vijayanagara empire, established a mud fort, considered the foundation of modern bangalore and its oldest areas, or pétés, which still exist.after the fall of the vijayanagara empire, kempe gowda declared independence; in 1638, a large adil shahi bijapur army defeated kempe gowda iii, and bangalore was came under shahaji bhonsle as a jagir which later became his capital.the mughals later captured bangalore and sold it to maharaja devaraja wodeyar ii of the kingdom of mysore.when haider ali seized control of the kingdom, the administration of bangalore passed into his hands.the city was captured by the british east india company after victory in the fourth anglo-mysore war (1799), which then returned administrative control of the city, along with the kingdom, to maharaja krishnaraja wadiyar iii.the old city developed under the dominions of the maharaja.in 1809, the british shifted their cantonment to bangalore, outside the old city, and a town grew up around it, which played as british residence in mysore.following india's independence in 1947, bangalore became the capital of mysore state, and remained the capital when the state was enlarged and unified in 1956 and after the state's renaming as karnataka in 1973.the two urban settlements of bangalore–the town and the cantonment– which had developed as independent entities merged into a single urban centre in 1949.the existing kannada name, bengalūru, was declared the city's official name in 2006.bangalore is considered to be one of the fastest-growing global major metropolises.recent estimates of the metro economy of its urban area has ranked bangalore as one of the most productive metro areas of india.the city is considered to be the pivot for high-technology-based heavy manufacturing industry, with numerous large multinational technology corporations setting up their headquarters in bangalore.this metropolis is home to many top-tier engineering and research institutions.bangalore is known as the 'silicon valley of india' because of its role as the nation's leading software exporter as well as being a major semiconductor hub.several state-owned aerospace and defence organisations are located in the city.the presence of numerous notable sporting arenas in bangalore makes it one of the sporting hubs of the country.it was the name of a village near kodigehalli in bangalore city today and was used by kempe gowda to name the city as bangalore at the time of its foundation in 1537.the earliest reference to the name 'bengalūru' was found in a ninth-century western ganga dynasty stone inscription on a vīra gallu (kannada: ವೀರಗಲ್ಲು; lit.'hero stone', a rock edict extolling the virtues of a warrior).according to an inscription found in begur, 'bengalūrū' was the place of a battle in 890 ce.it was also referred to as 'kalyānapura' or 'kalyānapuri' ('auspicious city') and 'dēvarāyanagara' during the vijayanagara times.an apocryphal story states that the twelfth-century hoysala king veera ballala ii, while on a hunting expedition, lost his way in the forest.","bangalore | founder | kempe gowda i acharya institute of technology | city | bangalore karnataka | has to its west | arabian sea acharya institute of technology | state | karnataka acharya institute of technology | affiliation | visvesvaraya technological university","after the fall of the vijayanagara empire, kempe gowda declared independence; in 1638, a large adil shahi bijapur army defeated kempe gowda iii, and bangalore was came under shahaji bhonsle as a jagir which later became his capital.the city is considered to be the pivot for high-technology-based heavy manufacturing industry, with numerous large multinational technology corporations setting up their headquarters in bangalore.it was the name of a village near kodigehalli in bangalore city today and was used by kempe gowda to name the city as bangalore at the time of its foundation in 1537."

second largest us military airbase in iraq during operation iraqi freedom.until january 2010, it was the home of the ii marine expeditionary force/multi-national force west.other major tenants have included the 3rd id's 4th ibct, 82nd airborne division advise & assist brigade, 332nd medical brigade, 321st sustainment brigade, vertical onboard delivery detachment-1 (vod-1), vaq-141, navy customs battalion juliet, elements of the iraqi army's 7th division, and the united states air force (usaf).on december 26, 2018, president donald trump and his wife melania visited the soldiers stationed at the base.on november 23, 2019, vice president mike pence and his wife karen, visited the troops ahead of thanksgiving.on january 8, 2020, the air base came under an iranian ballistic missile attack in retaliation for the killing of quds leader qasem soleimani in a u.s. drone strike a few days earlier.the airbase is divided by wādī al asadī (وادي الاسدي), a wadi whose course passes through the oasis along the base's western edge and then continues eastward, emptying into the euphrates river at khan al baghdadi.this oasis is locally referred to as 'abraham's well'.the ‘ayn al asad spring surfaces within the base and flows into the wādī al asadī.geologically, the base resides in the al-ḥammād sector of the syrian desert, composed mostly of a rock and gravel steppe.qadisiyah ab was one of five new air bases built in iraq as part of their project 'super-base', launched in 1975 as a response to the lessons learned during the arab-israeli wars of 1967 and 1973.the base was built sometime between 1981 and 1987 by a consortium of yugoslavian companies under contract to the government of iraq.two yugoslav government agencies led the project.the fdsp (federal directorate of supply and procurement) acted as the project manager and aeroengineering acted as the project engineer.known as 'project 202-b' and 'project 1100', the companies involved in its construction included granit, vranica d.d.sarajevo, i.l.lavčević d.d.split, and unioninvest d.d.sarajevo.the us$280,000,000 project at qadisiyah ab included accommodation for 5,000 personnel and the necessary infrastructure including public facilities (mosques, outdoor and indoor olympic swimming pool, football field, sports hall, cinema, library, elementary school, high school, hospital and clinic) and fortified military facilities (military airport, shelters for personnel and equipment, shelters for bombers and fighters and military barracks).the hardened aircraft shelters built here and throughout iraq by the yugoslavs were nicknamed 'yugos'.at the time they were considered state of the art but were rendered obsolete in 1991 after the development of the gbu-28 laser-guided bunker-buster bomb.prior to the 2003 us-led invasion of iraq, the base housed three units of the iraqi air force, which flew mig-25s and mig-21s.it was abandoned shortly after the start of the invasion.it was initially known as objective webster, and then eventually was renamed al asad airbase, which means 'the lion' in arabic.the 3rd acr was relieved by the marines of the 1st marine expeditionary force in march 2004.al asad became the largest u.s. base in western iraq and the western equivalent of baghdad's green zone.al asad was a major convoy hub, hosting hundreds of fuel and supply trucks every day.huge shipments of fuel were commonly run along the dangerous routes coming out of jordan and, despite insurgent attempts, a majority of these convoys arrived at their destinations untouched.a single convoy operation would sometimes last a couple days with trucks on the road for over 8 hours a day.","al asad airbase | operatingorganisation | united states air force united states air force | battles | invasion of

"alcatraz versus the evil librarians is a juvenile novel written by american author brandon sanderson, published in october 2007 by scholastic press.the book is named after its main character, alcatraz smedry.after receiving a bag of sand for his thirteenth birthday, he is involved in a very strange set of events.the book starts with alcatraz setting fire to his foster parents' kitchen.it is revealed that he has been in countless foster homes, always ending up with alcatraz 'destroying' things precious to the people taking care of him.ms. fletcher, alcatraz's personal caseworker, arrives and scolds him for destroying his foster parents' kitchen.the next day an old man arrives at the house and claims to be his grandfather, telling alcatraz that he has a special, powerful talent, breaking things.after the old man finds alcatraz's bag of sand missing, he and alcatraz must go on a mission to recover it at all cost from the evil librarians, secret rulers of the world.these freedom fighters include alcatraz's grandfather, leavenworth smedry, usually just referred to as 'grandpa smedry'; bastille, grandpa's bodyguard and a crystin knight; sing sing - sing for short - alcatraz's polynesian cousin; and quentin, another cousin.the librarians include shasta / ms. fletcher, alcatraz's case worker and radrian blackburn, a dark oculator.alcatraz has the talent of breaking things.grandpa smedry, alcatraz's grandfather, has the power to arrive late.as such, he is always running behind the clock.but his power also allows him to arrive late to other things, like bullets, which always miss him, and his blood can arrive late to wounds so that he doesn't bleed to death.in his own words 'i've been arriving late to my own death for longer than you've been alive.'sing, alcatraz's cousin's talent is the ability to trip and fall to the ground.this helps when this is a sign of danger.quentin, another cousin, has the talent to speak gibberish or nonsensical phrases.his talent proves beneficial when he is captured by the librarians, as they cannot understand him and thus cannot gain important information from him, even through torture.it is through some of quentin's supposed gibberish that alcatraz is prompted to know what to do in future events.smedrys from ancient days had grand talents, though relatively unexplained.one could get unbelievable amounts of water on the ground when she did the dishes, which allowed her to end a drought.another could make rude noises at inappropriate moments, breaking enemies' concentration so they could not use weapons.if someone not related to the smedrys marries a smedry, the person marrying into the family gets their spouse's talent.a third alcatraz book, called alcatraz versus the knights of crystallia, was released on october 1, 2009, and the fourth book, alcatraz versus the shattered lens, was released on december 1, 2010.since scholastic only commissioned the first four books, and was unwilling to publish the fifth book, sanderson bought back the rights to the series in early 2013.he later sold the series to tor books who then republished the series.the fifth book of the series, entitled the dark talent, was released september 6, 2016.tor books reprinted the first five books in a paperback box set, then published the sixth book in the series, alcatraz bastille vs. the evil librarians, on september 20, 2022, which was co-authored by janci patterson.on january 3, 2011, brandon sanderson, the author of the novel, tweeted that dreamworks did not renew the rights.","alcatraz

"english is a west germanic language in the indo-european language family, with its earliest forms spoken by the inhabitants of early medieval england.it is named after the angles, one of the ancient germanic peoples that migrated to the island of great britain.existing on a dialect continuum with scots and then most closely related to the low saxon and frisian languages, modern english is genealogically germanic.although its grammar and core vocabulary are mostly west germanic, it has borrowed many words from french (about 28% of english words) and latin (also about 28%), as well as some grammar and core vocabulary from old norse (a north germanic language).speakers of english are called anglophones.the earliest forms of english, collectively known as old english or 'anglo-saxon', evolved from a group of north sea germanic dialects brought to great britain by anglo-saxon settlers in the 5th century; these dialects generally resisted influence from the then-local common brittonic and british latin languages.however old english dialects were later influenced by old norse-speaking viking settlers and invaders starting in the 8th and 9th centuries.at the time, old norse even retained considerable mutual intelligibility with certain dialects of old english (especially more northern dialects).middle english began in the late 11th century after the norman conquest of england, when considerable old french (especially old norman french) and latin-derived vocabulary was incorporated into english over some three hundred years.early modern english began in the late 15th century with the start of the great vowel shift and the renaissance trend of borrowing further latin and greek words and roots into english, concurrent with the introduction of the printing press to london.this era notably culminated in the king james bible and the works of william shakespeare.the printing press greatly standardised english spelling, which has remained largely unchanged since then, despite a wide variety of later sound shifts in different english dialects.modern english grammar is the result of a gradual change from a typical indo-european dependent-marking pattern with a rich inflectional morphology and relatively free word order to a mostly analytic pattern with little inflection and a fairly fixed subject–verb–object word order.modern english relies more on auxiliary verbs and word order for the expression of complex tenses, aspects and moods, as well as passive constructions, interrogatives, and some negation.modern english has spread around the world since the 17th century as a consequence of the worldwide influence of the british empire and the united states of america.through all types of printed and electronic media in these countries, english has become the leading language of international discourse and the lingua franca in many regions and professional contexts such as science, navigation, and law.english is the most spoken language in the world and the third most spoken native language in the world, after standard chinese and spanish.it is the most widely learned second language and is either the official language or one of the official languages in 59 sovereign states.there are more people who have learned english as a second language than there are native speakers.as of 2005, it was estimated that there were over two billion speakers of english.english is the majority native language in the united kingdom, the united states, canada, australia, new zealand, and the republic of ireland (see anglosphere) and is widely spoken in some areas of the caribbean, africa, south asia, southeast asia, and oceania.it is a co-official language of the united nations, the european union, and many other international and regional organisations.english accounts for at least 70% of speakers of the germanic language branch of the indo-european family.","english language | spokenin | great britain united states | language | english language united states | capital | washington dc a severed wasp | country | united states united states | ethnicgroup | african americans","the earliest forms of english, collectively known as old english or 'anglo-saxon', evolved from a group of north sea germanic dialects brought to great britain by anglo-saxon settlers in the 5th century;

"english is a west germanic language in the indo-european language family, with its earliest forms spoken by the inhabitants of early medieval england.it is named after the angles, one of the ancient germanic peoples that migrated to the island of great britain.existing on a dialect continuum with scots and then most closely related to the low saxon and frisian languages, modern english is genealogically germanic.although its grammar and core vocabulary are mostly west germanic, it has borrowed many words from french (about 28% of english words) and latin (also about 28%), as well as some grammar and core vocabulary from old norse (a north germanic language).speakers of english are called anglophones.the earliest forms of english, collectively known as old english or 'anglo-saxon', evolved from a group of north sea germanic dialects brought to great britain by anglo-saxon settlers in the 5th century; these dialects generally resisted influence from the then-local common brittonic and british latin languages.however old english dialects were later influenced by old norse-speaking viking settlers and invaders starting in the 8th and 9th centuries.at the time, old norse even retained considerable mutual intelligibility with certain dialects of old english (especially more northern dialects).middle english began in the late 11th century after the norman conquest of england, when considerable old french (especially old norman french) and latin-derived vocabulary was incorporated into english over some three hundred years.early modern english began in the late 15th century with the start of the great vowel shift and the renaissance trend of borrowing further latin and greek words and roots into english, concurrent with the introduction of the printing press to london.this era notably culminated in the king james bible and the works of william shakespeare.the printing press greatly standardised english spelling, which has remained largely unchanged since then, despite a wide variety of later sound shifts in different english dialects.modern english grammar is the result of a gradual change from a typical indo-european dependent-marking pattern with a rich inflectional morphology and relatively free word order to a mostly analytic pattern with little inflection and a fairly fixed subject–verb–object word order.modern english relies more on auxiliary verbs and word order for the expression of complex tenses, aspects and moods, as well as passive constructions, interrogatives, and some negation.modern english has spread around the world since the 17th century as a consequence of the worldwide influence of the british empire and the united states of america.through all types of printed and electronic media in these countries, english has become the leading language of international discourse and the lingua franca in many regions and professional contexts such as science, navigation, and law.english is the most spoken language in the world and the third most spoken native language in the world, after standard chinese and spanish.it is the most widely learned second language and is either the official language or one of the official languages in 59 sovereign states.there are more people who have learned english as a second language than there are native speakers.as of 2005, it was estimated that there were over two billion speakers of english.english is the majority native language in the united kingdom, the united states, canada, australia, new zealand, and the republic of ireland (see anglosphere) and is widely spoken in some areas of the caribbean, africa, south asia, southeast asia, and oceania.it is a co-official language of the united nations, the european union, and many other international and regional organisations.english accounts for at least 70% of speakers of the germanic language branch of the indo-european family.","english language | spokenin | great britain united states | language | english language united states | leadername | joe biden alcatraz versus the evil librarians | country | united states united states | ethnicgroup | african americans","the earliest forms of english, collectively known as old english or 'anglo-saxon', evolved from a group of north sea germanic dialects brought to great britain by anglo-saxon settlers in the 5th century;

"sugo all'amatriciana (italian pronunciation: [ˈsuːɡo allamatriˈtʃaːna]), or alla matriciana (in romanesco dialect), also known as salsa all'amatriciana, is a traditional italian pasta sauce based on guanciale (cured pork cheek), pecorino romano cheese, tomato, and, in some variations, onion.originating from the town of amatrice (in the mountainous province of rieti of lazio region), the amatriciana is one of the best known pasta sauces in present-day roman and italian cuisine.the italian government has named it a traditional agro-alimentary product of lazio and amatriciana tradizionale is registered as a traditional speciality guaranteed in the eu and the uk.in papal rome, the grici were sellers of common edible foods, who got this name because many of them came from valtellina, at that time a possession of the swiss canton of grigioni.according to another hypothesis, the name originates from the hamlet of grisciano, in the comune of accumoli, near amatrice.the sauce—nowadays named also amatriciana bianca—was, and still is, prepared with guanciale (cured pork cheek) and grated pecorino romano.at some point, a little olive oil was added to the recipe.in the 1960s, amatriciana sauce was still prepared in this way in amatrice itself.the invention of the first tomato sauces (and the likely earliest date for the introduction of tomato in the gricia, creating amatriciana) dates back to the late 18th century.tomatoes originated from the aztecs and incas, and were introduced to europe through the columbian exchange via spain.the first written record of pasta with tomato sauce can be found in the 1790 cookbook l'apicio moderno by roman chef francesco leonardi.the amatriciana recipe became increasingly famous in rome over the 19th and early 20th centuries, due to the centuries-old connection between rome and amatrice.the recipe was extremely well received and rapidly went on to become a classic of roman cuisine, even though it originated elsewhere.the name of the dish in the romanesco dialect eventually became matriciana due to the apheresis typical of this dialect.while tomato-less gricia is still prepared in central italy, it is the tomato-enriched amatriciana that is better known throughout italy and exported everywhere.while in amatrice the dish is prepared with spaghetti, the use of bucatini has become extremely common in rome and is now prevalent.other types of dry pasta (particularly rigatoni) are also used, whereas fresh pasta is generally avoided.in amatrice, use of guanciale and tomato is typical.onion is not favoured, although it is shown in the classical handbooks of roman cuisine.for frying, olive oil is most commonly used, but strutto (canned pork lard) is used as well.in amatrice, the local pecorino is sometimes used as cheese.for cheese either pecorino romano or amatrice's pecorino (from the monti sibillini or monti della laga areas) can be used.the addition of black pepper or chili pepper is common.vie piazze e ville di roma nel loro valore storico e topografico (in italian).roma: libreria di scienze e lettere.boni, ada (1983) [1930].la cucina romana (in italian).roma: newton compton editori.gosetti della salda, anna (1967).le ricette regionali italiane (in italian).milano: solares.carnacina, luigi; buonassisi, vincenzo (1975).roma in cucina (in italian).milano: giunti martello.faccioli, emilio (1987).l'arte della cucina in italia (in italian).milano: einaudi.ravaro, fernando (2005).dizionario romanesco (in italian).roma: newton compton.isbn 9788854117921.","amatriciana sauce | region | lazio amatriciana sauce | country | italy amatriciana sauce | ingredient | guanciale amatriciana sauce | course | italian meal structure amatriciana sauce | mainingredients | tomatoes guanciale cheese olive oil","sugo all'amatriciana (italian pronunciation: [ˈsuːɡo allamatriˈtʃaːna]), or alla matriciana (in romanesco dialect), also known as salsa all'amatriciana, is a traditional italian pasta sauce based on guanciale (cured pork cheek), pecorino romano cheese, tomato, and, in some variations, onion.originating from the town of amatrice (in the mountainous province of rieti of lazio region), the amatriciana is one of the best known pasta sauces in present-day roman and italian cuisine.the italian government has named it a traditional agro-alimentary product of lazio and amatriciana tradizionale is registered as a traditional speciality guaranteed in the eu and the uk.the sauce—nowadays named also amatriciana bianca—was, and still is, prepared with guanciale (cured pork cheek) and grated pecorino romano.the name of the dish in the romanesco dialect eventually became matriciana due to the apheresis typical of this dialect.while tomato-less gricia is still prepared in central italy, it is the tomato-enriched amatriciana that is better known throughout italy and exported everywhere."
