What is the Rugby Union Six Nations tournament? - CBBC Newsround What is
the Rugby Union Six Nations tournament? 11 February 2015 Image copyright
Getty Images Check out this guide to find out all you need to know about
the Six Nations. Rugby Union Six Nations tournament The Six Nations is a
rugby union tournament played every year between the top countries in
Europe. The six countries who take part are England, Scotland, Wales,
Ireland, France and Italy. For the first 90 years of the championships
there were only five countries involved, but Italy were invited to take
part in 2000. Rugby Union Rugby Union is played by teams of 15 players,
with each team made up of eight forwards and seven backs. Even at the
top level it used to be amateur; that is, played for fun by people who
had other jobs too, but now the top players are all professionals. The
biggest competition in Union is the World Cup, played every four years,
but the most famous one in this country is the Six Nations championship.
The Grand Slam If a team wins all five of its matches it is called a
Grand Slam, but to win a Grand Slam is very hard. England won a Grand
Slam in 2003, but only after losing their final match in the three
seasons before. The Triple Crown The Triple Crown is a special prize
that only the four home unions are able to win. Image copyright PA Image
caption A team can only win the triple crown if they beat all three of
the other home unions Rugby facts The sport gets its name from the place
where it was invented, Rugby School in Warwickshire, England. In 1816 a
pupil called William Webb Ellis got a bit bored during a match of
football and decided that picking up the ball would make things more
interesting. Although the game has come a long way since, even splitting
into two codes; Rugby Union and Rugby League, that's where it started.
One of the most important rules of the sport is that the ball can only
be passed backwards.
- "Baked Artichoke Recipe Baked Artichoke Recipe written by Heather Restrepo So there are a variety of types when it comes to artichokes (Red-Babyanzio, Big-heart, Siena, Mercury, Omaha, Fiesole, Chianti, etc.) But perhaps the most common is the Classic Green Globe artichoke. This is probably the type of artichoke you will find at your local grocer. Having moved to\_Hawaii as a teen, that is when I was first introduced to this intimidating\_looking veggie. I would never have predicted that I could ever encompass the foodie-love-affair that I now have with them! The Classic Green Globe artichoke is by far my favorite because of its’ buttery-tasting heart and bottom. There is also a good amount of meat within the petals –\_SCORE\_if you ask me! Many people enjoy perfectly grilled, baked, or steamed artichokes at fancy restaurants, which are usually served with a garlic aioli type of sauce (find my aioli recipe here ). \_Nonetheless, making them at home is not as scary as you might think! I find that steaming artichokes gives them a bitter taste compared to baking, plus popping them in the oven is so much easier than messing with a steamer! So, here is my go-to recipe for BAKED artichokes: INGREDIENTS: 2 tbsp. Grass-fed Butter (un-salted) 1 tsp. Garlic Powder *NOTE: You will need a baking dish with a lid/cover. To start – Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. \_Give the artichoke a good rinse in cold water, and use a kitchen brush to lightly scrub the outside. Then cut about a half-inch from the stem and discard the bottom piece. I also cut about a half-inch from the very top, just to open it up and allow the seasoning to get inside for cooking. \_*OPTIONAL: Some people like to trim the tops of the leaves to get rid of the thorns, but I find that they become soft during cooking so I don’t bother. \_Then, carefully cut the artichoke vertically in half. Line a baking dish with parchment paper and place the halves on top. Then lightly coat both pieces with a halved lemon. Take the other half of the lemon and squeeze along the inside of the artichoke, as well as between the leaves. Then sprinkle the sea salt and garlic powder all-over both sides and a bit between the leaves. Next, lightly drizzle your oil all over the artichoke pieces (in between the leaves also). Then place a tbsp. of grass-fed butter in each of the heart pockets. Cover the baking dish with lid, and place in to the oven. \_Allow to cook until sizzling., usually about 1 hour. (Ovens will vary, so check often after 30-40 minutes of cooking) After cooking, allow to cool, remove\_the choke with a spoon (the hairy inside part), and then enjoy the meat on petals, and heart/bottom! x.

Brighton Rock Maximize this page Introduction This study guide is
intended for students preparing for exams at GCE Advanced (A2) level and
Advanced Supplementary (AS) level. But it is suitable for university
students and the general reader who is interested in Brighton Rock.
Please use the hyperlinks in the table above to navigate this page. If
you have any comments or suggestions to make about this page, please
e-mail me by clicking on this link. The purpose of this study guide is
to help you find your way around the text, and to introduce subjects
which may be set by examiners. It is not a substitute for close study of
the novel. Ideas presented here need to be supported by textual
reference (either summary of narrative detail or brief direct quotation,
as appropriate; do not quote at length: you gain no credit for this in
an "open book" exam, the point of the reference will not be clear, and
you are wasting time!). Back to top It is assumed by the examiners that
literature is a humane subject; that is, that books set for study
explore and interpret values and attitudes in the real world, although
they must also be judged in their own right as imaginative works
depicting an alternative reality or alternative view of the world.
Broadly speaking, students are asked to examine works in terms of their
content (what they are about) and the author's technique (how they are
composed). While examiners hope that students will enjoy studying these
things, they recognize that this enjoyment will rarely be simple or
immediate in the case of demanding texts. Students would do well to
develop maturity as readers, to discover the historical and cultural
diversity of western literature, with some of its history; to recognize
different literary forms, genres and conventions. Personal and
independent judgements are encouraged, but should be made against a
background of familiarity with established or current attitudes. It is
impossible to "teach" this entirely within lesson time; private reading,
directed by a teacher or other well-read person, is essential. Because
you cannot read everything, or even very much, try to profit from the
experience of others. Back to top Brighton Rock: what is it about? At
one level, this novel is a simple, if elegant, thriller: Ida Arnold, an
unlikely heroine, pursues the evil but failed gangster Pinkie Brown; she
seeks his punishment, while trying to save from his influence the young
woman, Rose, whom Pinkie has married to buy her silence. In these terms,
with vivid but usually straightforward characters and well-drawn
locations, and the shocking conclusion (the reader is aware of Rose's
imminent discovery of Pinkie's hatred) the novel shows why it achieved
great popularity, and why it was successfully adapted for the cinema.
Unlike some classic works, it obeys the convention of popular fiction,
that there should be a well-paced and exciting story; "suspense" is also
provided by the reader's concern for the perhaps doomed Rose. But why is
the novel also considered to be serious fiction, or a "modern classic"?
This is a little less obvious, but we can find reasons for this opinion,
if we look. Like many writers from earlier times, Greene is deeply
interested in what could be called metaphysical questions: about the
real nature and purpose of this world, about the nature or existence,
even, of God; about man's freedom, by his own efforts, to alter his
circumstances - or lack of this freedom. In order to address these
arguments, Greene depicts characters who are not at all complex, but who
hold, profoundly in the case of Pinkie, radically differing views on
these matters. Back to top Dallow, like Ida, sees only the immediate
material world before him, as do the punters who see Brighton's jolly
facade and gaiety, but not the squalor behind this. Pinkie, though,
believes also in a world of unseen but eternal spiritual realities.
Initially, he believes these to await him after death, and he aspires to
better his status in this world; but he comes, gradually, to see what

How many Presidents have resigned from office? | Reference.com How many
Presidents have resigned from office? A: Quick Answer As of 2014, there
has been only one president to resign from office. That president was
Richard Nixon on Aug. 9, 1974. Minutes after his resignation, Vice
President Gerald R. Ford was sworn into office as the 37th president of
the United States. Full Answer Nixon's resignation can be largely
attributed to the clandestine and illegal activities his administration
undertook during his presidency. The activities were brought to light
when members of his administration were caught breaking into the
Democratic headquarters at the Watergate Hotel. This scandal, named the
Watergate scandal, resulted in the loss of almost all of his political
support and the near-certainty of his impeachment. As a result, Nixon
took to radio and television and announced his resignation.

View in context He begins with a discussion of Hegel's reform-bill
article claiming that, contrary to the traditional view, it was not a
sour mix of anglophobia and Prussian chauvinism but a shrewd analysis of
the political situation as of mid-1831 which correctly identified the
structural weaknesses of the existing British state, most notably its
dominance by a corrupt and incompetent aristocracy, and pointed the
direction that politics must take if the nation was to avoid revolution.

When you menstruate, your body sheds the lining of the uterus (womb). Learn how the menstrual cycle works and what to do if you have painful or irregular periods. Expand all Collapse all What is menstruation? Menstruation (men-STRAY-shuhn) is a woman's monthly bleeding. When you menstruate, your body sheds the lining of the uterus (womb). Menstrual blood flows from the uterus through the small opening in the cervix and passes out of the body through the vagina ( see how the menstrual cycle works below ). Most menstrual periods last from 3 to 5 days. What is the menstrual cycle? When periods (menstruations) come regularly, this is called the menstrual cycle. Having regular menstrual cycles is a sign that important parts of your body are working normally. The menstrual cycle provides important body chemicals, called hormones, to keep you healthy. It also prepares your body for pregnancy each month. A cycle is counted from the first day of 1 period to the first day of the next period. The average menstrual cycle is 28 days long. Cycles can range anywhere from 21 to 35 days in adults and from 21 to 45 days in young teens. The rise and fall of levels of hormones during the month control the menstrual cycle. What happens during the menstrual cycle? In the first half of the cycle, levels of estrogen (the \"female hormone\") start to rise. Estrogen plays an important role in keeping you healthy, especially by helping you to build strong bones and to help keep them strong as you get older. Estrogen also makes the lining of the uterus (womb) grow and thicken. This lining of the womb is a place that will nourish the embryo if a pregnancy occurs. At the same time the lining of the womb is growing, an egg, or ovum, in one of the ovaries starts to mature. At about day 14 of an average 28-day cycle, the egg leaves the ovary. This is called ovulation. After the egg has left the ovary, it travels through the fallopian tube to the uterus. Hormone levels rise and help prepare the uterine lining for pregnancy. A woman is most likely to get pregnant during the 3 days before or on the day of ovulation. Keep in mind, women with cycles that are shorter or longer than average may ovulate before or after day 14. A woman becomes pregnant if the egg is fertilized by a man's sperm cell and attaches to the uterine wall. If the egg is not fertilized, it will break apart. Then, hormone levels drop, and the thickened lining of the uterus is shed during the menstrual period. See how the menstrual cycle works. What is a typical menstrual period like? During your period, you shed the thickened uterine lining and extra blood through the vagina. Your period may not be the same every month. It may also be different than other women's periods. Periods can be light, moderate, or heavy in terms of how much blood comes out of the vagina. This is called menstrual flow. The length of the period also varies. Most periods last from 3 to 5 days. But, anywhere from 2 to 7 days is normal. For the first few years after menstruation begins, longer cycles are common. A woman's cycle tends to shorten and become more regular with age. Most of the time, periods will be in the range of 21 to 35 days apart. What kinds of problems do women have with their periods? Women can have a range of problems with their periods, including pain, heavy bleeding, and skipped periods. Amenorrhea (ay-men-uh-REE-uh) — the lack of a menstrual period. This term is used to describe the absence of a period in: Young women who haven't started menstruating by age 15 Women and girls who haven't had a period for 90 days, even if they haven't been menstruating for long Causes can include: Stress Serious medical conditions in need of treatment As above, when your menstrual cycles come regularly, this means that important parts of your body are"

World Cup Golden Boot Winners - Historical World Cup Top Scorers
Argentina 5 One of the most active markets for any World Cup is the
Golden Boot with a number of players vying for an award which is
presented to the highest goal scorer in the tournament. Over the years,
there have been some incredible goal scoring feats at World Cup finals
but who are the individuals that have made their mark in previous
tournaments and what indicators can they give those of us who are making
predictions for 2014? The Record Breaker France’s Just Fontaine holds
the record for the most goals in a single World Cup tournament and it’s
one that may never be broken. In current World Cup competitions, the
most successful teams could play as many as seven games but could any of
the current players match the 13 strikes that Fontaine achieved in
Sweden in 1958? The striker was prolific in club football and averaged
nearly a goal a game during his eight years with Stade Reims. His ratio
at international level was even better and his performances at the 1958
finals would leave Fontaine with a record of 30 goals from 23
appearances. It’s claimed that he was playing in a pair of borrowed
boots when he began his campaign with a hat trick in a 7-3 defeat of
Uruguay. The Frenchman followed that achievement with a brace against
Yugoslavia and a single, winning goal against the Scots which allowed
his country to progress to the next phase. Three goals followed over two
matches against Northern Ireland and Brazil before Fontaine netted no
less than four times in the third place play off against West Germany.
Behind this incredible achievement, Sandor Kocsis managed eleven strikes
in the finals of 1954 but since Gerd Muller’s 10 in 1970, no player has
managed more than eight in a single tournament. The Prolific Nations
Aside from Just Fontaine’s magnificent 13 back in 1958, no Frenchman has
taken the Golden Boot award. In fact, after the Stade Reims centre
forward, there is a considerable gap in the country’s all time list. The
finals in Sweden were the only time that Fontaine appeared in a
tournament so he finished seven clear of Thierry Henry who scored six
goals – three in 1998 and three in 2002. Other countries have been more
prolific over a longer span and they tend to be the more successful
nations in terms of World Cup victories. Brazil are well represented
when it comes to the tournament’s leading goal scorers and out of
eighteen finals, five Brazilians have either shared the Golden Boot or
won it outright. The most successful of these was Ronaldo who currently
holds the overall record for goals scored at the World Cup finals. The
former Real Madrid target man has 15 strikes, spread over three
tournaments, including a top scoring effort of eight as his country
lifted the trophy in 2002. Behind Ronaldo, the legendary Pele has 12
goals in four tournaments although the man who many believe was the
greatest to ever play the game, never actually won a Golden Boot.
Germany also feature heavily in the list of all time leading scorers and
Miroslav Klose has a chance of eclipsing Ronaldo’s record at the 2014
tournament. Along with the great Gerd Muller , the Lazio centre forward
has 14 goals in World Cup finals and is set to be Germany’s first choice
front man in Brazil. In total, German or West German players have
finished as top scorer in three tournaments. Gerd Muller recorded an
impressive ten goals in 1970 before Klose took an outright win in 2006.
Thomas Muller completes the trio although the Bayern Munich man shared
the award in 2010 with David Villa and Wesley Sneijder. An unlikely hero
After West Germany’s Gerd Muller took the prestigious Golden Boot in
1970, he joined up with the national squad as they looked to win the
World Cup on home soil four years later. The host nation duly completed
a win after edging past the Netherlands by two goals to one in the final
and while the man they called ‘Der Bomber’ scored four times, the top
scorer accolade finished in the hands of an unlikely recipient. Poland’s

Philip IV Philip IV Location of death: Madrid, Spain Cause of death:
unspecified Nationality: Spain Executive summary: King of Spain, 1621-65
Philip IV, King of Spain, eldest son of Philip III and his wife
Margaret, sister of the emperor Ferdinand II, was born at Valladolid on
the 8th of April 1605. His reign, after a few passing years of barren
successes, was a long story of political and military decay and
disaster. The king has been held responsible for the fall of Spain,
which was, however, due in the main to internal causes beyond the
control of the most despotic ruler, however capable he had been. Philip
certainly possessed more energy, both mental and physical, than his
father. There is still in existence a translation of Guicciardini which
he wrote with his own hand in order to qualify himself for government by
acquiring a knowledge of political history. He was a fine horseman and
keen hunter. His artistic taste was shown by his patronage of Diego
Vel�zquez , and his love of letters by his favor to Lope de Vega ,
Calder�n , and other dramatists. He is even credited, on fairly probable
testimony, with a share at least in the composition of several comedies.
His good intentions were of no avail to his government. Coming to the
throne at the age of sixteen, he did the wisest thing he could by
allowing himself to be guided by the most capable man he could find. His
favorite, Olivares, was a far more honest man than the Duke of Lerma,
and was more fit for the place of prime minister than any Spaniard of
the time. But Philip IV had not the strength of mind to free himself
from the influence of Olivares when he had grown to manhood. The
amusements which the favorite had encouraged became the business of the
king's life. When, in 1643, the disasters falling on the monarchy on all
sides led to the dismissal of Olivares, Philip had lost the power to
devote himself to hard work. After a brief struggle with the task of
directing the administration of the most extensive and the worst
organized monarchy in Europe, he sank back into his pleasures and was
governed by other favorites. His political opinions were those he had
inherited from his father and grandfather. He thought it his duty to
support the German Habsburgs and the cause of the Roman Catholic Church
against the Protestants, to assert his sovereignty over Holland, and to
extend the dominions of his house. The utter exhaustion of his people in
the course of a hopeless struggle with Holland, France and England was
seen by him with sympathy, but he considered it an unavoidable
misfortune and not the result of his own errors, since he could not be
expected to renounce his rights or to desert the cause of God and the
Church. In public he maintained a bearing of rigid solemnity, and was
seen to laugh only three times in the course of his life. But in private
he indulged in horseplay and very coarse immorality. His court was
grossly vicious. The early death of his eldest son, Baltasar Carlos, was
unquestionably due to debauchery encouraged by the gentlemen entrusted
by the king with his education. The lesson shocked the king, but its
effect soon wore off. Philip IV died broken-hearted on the 17th of
September 1665, expressing the hope that his surviving son, Carlos,
would be more fortunate than himself. Father: Philip III (King of Spain)

Olympic Games | Ice Hockey Wiki | Fandom powered by Wikia Medalists Ice
hockey tournaments have been staged at the Olympic Games since 1920. The
men's tournament was introduced at the 1920 Summer Olympics and was
transferred permanently to the Winter Olympic Games programme in 1924.
The women's tournament was first held at the 1998 Winter Olympics . The
Olympic Games were originally intended for amateur athletes until 1988,
and the National Hockey League (NHL) did not allow its players to
compete until 1998. From 1924 to 1988, the tournament started with a
round-robin series of games and ended with the medal round. Medals were
awarded based on points accumulated during that round. The games of the
tournament follow the rules of the International Ice Hockey Federation
(IIHF), which differ slightly from the rules used in the NHL . The
tournament follows the World Anti-Doping Agency's (WADA) rules on Use
of performance enhancing drugs and the IIHF maintains a Registered
Testing Pool, a list of top players who are subjected to random
in-competition and out-of-competition drug tests. Several players have
tested positive for banned substances since the 1972 Winter Olympics .
In the men's tournament, Canada was the most successful team of the
first three decades, winning six of seven gold medals. Czechoslovakia ,
Sweden and the United States were also competitive during this period
and won multiple medals. Between 1920 and 1968, the Olympic hockey
tournament was also counted as the Ice Hockey World Championship for
that year. The Soviet Union first participated in 1956 and overtook
Canada as the dominant international team, winning seven of the nine
tournaments in which they participated. The United States won gold
medals in 1960 and in 1980 , which included their " Miracle on Ice "
upset of the Soviet Union. Canada went 50 years without a gold medal,
before winning one in 2002 , and following it up with another in 2010 .
Other nations to win gold include Great Britain in 1936 , the Unified
Team in 1992 , Sweden in 1994 and 2006 and the Czech Republic]] in 1998
. Other medal-winning nations include Switzerland,Germany,Finland and
Russia]]. In 1986, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) voted to
allow all athletes to compete in Olympic Games held after 1988. The NHL
was initially reluctant to allow its players to compete because the
Olympics are held in the middle of the NHL season, and the league would
have to halt play if many of its players participated. However, NHL
players were allowed to compete starting in 1998. The format of the
tournament was adjusted to accommodate the NHL schedule; a preliminary
round was played without NHL players or the top six teams—Canada, the
Czech Republic, Finland, Russia, Sweden and the United States—followed
by a final round which included them. The tournament format was changed
again in 2006; every team played five preliminary games with the full
use of NHL players. In July 1992, the IOC voted to approve women's
hockey as an Olympic event; it was first held at the 1998 Winter
Olympics in Nagano. The Nagano Organizing Committee was hesitant to
include the event because of the additional costs of staging the
tournament, but an agreement was reached that limited the field to six
teams, and ensured that no additional facilities would be built. The
Canadian and American teams have dominated the event, typically losing
only to each other. The United States won the first tournament in 1998,
while Canada won in 2002, 2006 and 2010. Contents Edit The first Olympic
ice hockey tournament took place at the 1920 Summer Olympics in Antwerp

still relatively new. [2] The International Ice Hockey Federation
(IIHF), the sport's governing body, was created on May 15, 1908, under
the name Ligue Internationale de Hockey sur Glace. [3] At the 1914

sports that Olympics organisers could include. [4] The decision to

By Rick Tucker © 1996 Richard W. Tucker. All Rights Reserved “One should make a serious study of a pastime”—Alexander the Great [ 1 ] Table of Contents References The Preface I’ve played tiddlywinks for 24 years, ever since I ventured into a dormitory at MIT on my first day as a freshman and encountered (no pun intended) the local denizens on their hands and knees shooting winks across the carpet and down the stairs. (It really isn’t normally played on the floor, actually.) I was captivated at the congruence (technical term, sorry) of the ivory towers of MIT housing the noble sport of tiddlywinks, and amazed that MIT might, perhaps inadvertantly (but not always), lend credence to a sport enmired in such a mischievous stereotype. Tiddlywinks appealed to me because of its unique character, because it is almost universally known, and because it demands precise dexterous skills, while also requiring strategy and tactics, and also a measure of luck. And so, what follows is the first definitive history of tiddlywinks boxed games. There is a history in all men’s lives.[ 2 ] I invite and expect to hear from game collectors and historians to help me add to, revise, and where necessary, fix errors in this history. I also invite you to visit my tiddlywinks web pages at http://www.tiddlywinks.org , where this article will appear subsequent to its publication in Games Researchers’ Notes, with all the photos in living color. — Rick Tucker, 31 October 1996 Setting the Stage: The Oft-Ridiculed Game “Have we sold our precious heritage in exchange for frivolity and a game of tiddlywinks?”, letter by Lillie Struble in Library Journal[ 3 ]. This was the most unkindest cut of all.[ 4 ] “A 15th-century Donatello bronze, The Madonna and Child, served the Fitzwilliam family as a tiddlywinks bowl until the Victoria and Albert Museum [London] recognized its importance”, ARTnews[ 5 ]. “Even in the matter of nursery games the Victorian child took things very seriously. There were some board games, however, which provided little or no intellectual stimulus. Chief among these was […] tiddlywinks, whose apparent inanity (to the uninitiated) is often regarded as the ultimate in useless activities.”, James Mackay [ 6 ]. Prince Philip once suggested that tiddlywinks be included in the Olympics. To which Ian Wooldridge of the Olympic Committee responded: “At the risk of propagating royal support for tiddlywinks, a game of the utmost tedium played by anti-athletes too tired or apathetic to get up off the floor, I have to concede that his argument makes sense.”, British Airways magazine.[ 7 ] “The research described in this chapter concerns a well-known children’s pastime, the game of tiddlywinks, where the idea is to take one counter and press it on the edge of another, to make the latter jump. Because this is extremely simple, the research centered less on cognizance of the mov"

Football - Summer Olympic Sport Football Singapore 2010 adopts new sport
formats 12 Aug 2010 Football has its roots in ancient China, while the
modern version of the game began on the streets of medieval England
before evolving into the most popular sport in the world. Medieval
origins Modern football has its origins in the streets of medieval
England. Neighbouring towns would play each other in games where a
heaving mass of players would struggle to drag a pig’s bladder by any
means possible to markers at either end of town. A royal ban Football
became so violent in England it was banned by the king for more than 300
years. English public schools are credited with subsequently
establishing the modern football codes, thus turning the mob riot into a
sport in the 16th century. Olympic history Football first appeared on
the programme of the Games of the II Olympiad, Paris 1900. It has been
on the programme of each edition of the Games ever since, with the
exception of Los Angeles 1932. Europe dominated the competition until
after 1992 in Barcelona, where Spain became the last European team to
win a gold medal. Since the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta, African and
South American teams have won all the gold medals. Also in 1996, women’s
football was introduced into the Olympic programme. Three times, the USA
has been on the highest step of the podium - in 1996, in 2004 in Athens
and in 2008 in Beijing. But this team was beaten by the Norwegians in
the final of the 2000 Games in Sydney.
