the War of 1812 , partisanship subsided across the young republic -- people called it the Era of Good Feelings . James Monroe narrowly won the party 's nomination for President in Congress over William Crawford in 1816 and defeated Federalist Rufus King in the general election . </P> <P> In the early years of the party , the key central organization grew out of caucuses of Congressional leaders in Washington . However , the key battles to choose electors occurred in the states , not in the caucus . In many cases , legislatures still chose electors ; and in others , the election of electors was heavily influenced by local parties that were heavily controlled by relatively small groups of officials . Without a significant Federalist opposition , the need for party unity was greatly diminished and the party 's organization faded away . </P> <P> James Monroe ran under the party 's banner in the 1820 election and built support by consensus . Monroe faced no serious rival and was nearly unanimously elected by the electoral college . The party 's historic domination by the Virginian delegation faded as New York and Pennsylvania became more important . In the 1824 election , most of the party in Congress boycotted the caucus ; only a small rump group backed William Crawford . The Crawford faction included most `` Old Republicans '' -- those who remained committed to states ' rights and the Principles of 1798 and were distrustful of the nationalizing program promoted by Henry Clay and John C. Calhoun . </P> <P> Thomas Jefferson wrote on the state of party politics in the early 1820s : </P> <P> An opinion prevails that there is no longer any distinction , that the republicans & Federalists are completely amalgamated but it is not so . The amalgamation is of name only , not of principle . All indeed call themselves by the name of Republicans , because that of Federalists was extinguished in the battle of New Orleans . But the truth is that finding that monarchy is a desperate wish in this country , they rally to the point which they think next best , a consolidated government . Their aim is now therefore to break down the rights reserved by the constitution to the states as a bulwark against that consolidation , the fear of which produced the whole of the opposition to the constitution at its birth . Hence new Republicans in Congress , preaching the doctrines of the old Federalists , and the new nick - names of Ultras and Radicals . But I trust they will fail under the new , as the old name , and that the friends of the real constitution and union will prevail against consolidation , as they have done against monarchism . I scarcely know myself which is most to be deprecated , a consolidation , or dissolution of the states . The horrors of both are beyond the reach of human foresight . </P> <P> In the aftermath of the disputed 1824 presidential election , the separate factions took on many characteristics of parties in their own right . Adams ' supporters , in league with Clay , favored modernization , banks , industrial development and federal spending for roads and other internal improvements , which the Old Republicans and the Jackson men usually opposed . Writing in his personal journal on December 13 , 1826 , President Adams noted the difficulty he faced in attempting to be nonpartisan in appointing men to office : </P> <P> And it is upon the occasion of appointments to office that all the wormwood and the gall of the old party hatred ooze out . Not a vacancy to any office occurs but there is a distinguished federalist started and pushed home as a candidate to fill it -- always well qualified , sometimes in an eminent degree , and yet so obnoxious to the Republican party that he can not be appointed without exciting a vehement clamor against him and against the Administration . It becomes thus impossible to fill any appointment without offending one - half the community -- the federalists , if their associate is overlooked ; the Republicans , if he is preferred . </P> <P> Presidential electors were now all chosen by direct election , except in South Carolina , where the state legislatures chose them . White manhood suffrage was the norm throughout the West and in most of the East as well . The voters thus were much more powerful , and to win their votes required complex party organization . Under the leadership of Martin Van Buren , a firm believer in political organization , the Jacksonians built strong state and local organizations throughout the country . The Old Republicans , or `` Radicals '' , mostly supported Jackson and joined with supporters of incumbent Vice President Calhoun in an alliance . President Adams was defeated by Andrew Jackson in the election of 1828 . </P> <H2> Republican party name ( edit ) </H2> <P> Political parties were new in the United States , and people were not accustomed to having formal names for them . There was no single , official name for the party . Party members generally called themselves `` Republicans '' and voted for what they called the `` Republican party '' , `` republican ticket '' or `` republican interest '' . Jefferson and Madison often used the terms `` republican '' and `` Republican party '' in their letters . The 1804 Convention of Republican members of Congress that renominated Jefferson described itself as a `` regular republican caucus '' . The name Democratic - Republican was used by contemporaries only occasionally . </P> <P> The term `` republican '' was in widespread usage from the 1770s to describe the type of government the break - away colonies wanted to form : a republic of three separate branches of government derived from some principles and structure from ancient republics ; especially the emphasis on civic duty and the opposition to

, Shaffer began to receive cuts of episodes from the first season and he started to put music in afterwards where the director thought it was needed . </P> <P> In developing the sound of the show 's music , Shaffer initially looked to Letterman for guidance . Finding none , he remembered he and Letterman 's shared love for the sort of music produced at the Muscle Shoals Sound Studio in Sheffield , Alabama describing it as `` the honesty you hear , the southern soul feeling . '' The score initially included drums but the show 's producers and director thought that the music should `` feel like it 's Dave 's old friend Paul playing .

continuously , and promises to not do it again while demanding they all work equally hard . Moran talks Towns into resuming work on the aircraft . </P> <P> When the new aircraft is almost complete , Standish labels it `` The Phoenix '' after the mythical bird that is reborn from its ashes . Any good mood , however , is quashed after a band of natives comes nearby . While the others ( and the aircraft ) remain hidden , Harris and Renaud go to ask them for help -- and are murdered . Additionally , Towns and Moran learn that Dorfmann designs model airplanes rather than full - sized ones . Dorfmann claims that the principles are exactly the same , and that in many aspects models require much more exacting designs and can be less forgiving than full - size aircraft , but Towns and Moran are horrified at the idea of flying a plane made by a man who works with `` toys '' . Without any other choice , however , they decide to forge ahead with the plan . </P> <P> Just as the water supplies are exhausted , the Phoenix is completed . Only seven starter cartridges are available for the engine , and the first four startup attempts are unsuccessful . Towns decides to fire the fifth cartridge with the ignition off , to clear the engine 's cylinders , which he does over Dorfmann 's strenuous objection . The next startup is successful . The men pull the Phoenix to a nearby hilltop and climb onto the wings . When Towns guns the engine , the Phoenix slides down the hill and along a lake bed before taking off . After landing at an oasis with a manned oil rig , the men celebrate and Towns and Dorfmann are reconciled . </P> <H2> Cast ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> James Stewart as Capt .

passage , in 1850 , of the second Fugitive Slave Act . Much of the book was composed in Brunswick , Maine , where her husband , Calvin Ellis Stowe , taught at his alma mater , Bowdoin College . </P> An engraving of Harriet Beecher Stowe from 1872 , based on an oil painting by Alonzo Chappel <P> Stowe was partly inspired to create Uncle Tom 's Cabin by the slave narrative The Life of Josiah Henson , Formerly a Slave , Now an Inhabitant of Canada , as Narrated by Himself ( 1849 ) . Henson , a formerly enslaved black man , had lived and worked on a 3,700 acres ( 15 km ) tobacco plantation in North Bethesda , Maryland , owned by Isaac Riley . Henson escaped slavery in 1830 by fleeing to the Province of Upper Canada ( now Ontario ) , where he helped other fugitive slaves settle and become self - sufficient , and where he wrote his memoirs . Stowe acknowledged in 1853 that Henson 's writings inspired Uncle Tom 's Cabin . When Stowe 's work became a best - seller , Henson republished his memoirs as The Memoirs of Uncle Tom and traveled on lecture tours extensively in the United States and Europe . Stowe 's novel lent its name to Henson 's home -- Uncle Tom 's Cabin Historic Site , near Dresden , Canada -- which since the 1940s has been a museum . The cabin where Henson lived while he was enslaved no longer exists , but a cabin on the Riley farm erroneously thought to be the Henson Cabin was purchased by the Montgomery County , Maryland , government in 2006 . It is now a part of the National Park Service National Underground Railroad Network to Freedom program , and plans are underway to build a museum and interpretive center on the site . </P> <P> American Slavery As It Is : Testimony of a Thousand Witnesses , a volume co-authored by Theodore Dwight Weld and the Grimké sisters , is also a source of some of the novel 's content . Stowe said she based the novel on a number of interviews with people who escaped slavery during the time when she was living in Cincinnati , Ohio , across the Ohio River from Kentucky , a slave state . In Cincinnati the Underground Railroad had local abolitionist sympathizers and was active in efforts to help runaway slaves on their escape route from the South . </P> <P> Stowe mentioned a number of the inspirations and sources for her novel in A Key to Uncle Tom 's Cabin ( 1853 ) . This non-fiction book was intended to verify Stowe 's claims about slavery . However , later research indicated that Stowe did not read many of the book 's cited works until after she had published her novel . </P> <H2> Publication </H2> The National Era , June 5 , 1851 <P> Uncle Tom 's Cabin first appeared as a 40 - week serial in The National Era , an abolitionist periodical , starting with the June 5 , 1851 , issue . It was originally intended as a shorter narrative that would run for only a few weeks . Stowe expanded the story significantly , however , and it was instantly popular , such that several protests were sent to the Era office when she missed an issue . Because of the story 's popularity , the publisher John P. Jewett contacted Stowe about turning the serial into a book . While Stowe questioned if anyone would read Uncle Tom 's Cabin in book form , she eventually consented to the request . </P> <P> Convinced the book would be popular , Jewett made the unusual decision ( for the time ) to have six full - page illustrations by Hammatt Billings engraved for the first printing . Published in book form on March 20 , 1852 , the novel sold 3,000 copies on that day alone , and soon sold out its complete print run . A number of other editions were soon printed ( including a deluxe edition in 1853 , featuring 117 illustrations by Billings ) . </P> <P> In the first year of publication , 300,000 copies of Uncle Tom 's Cabin were sold . At that point , however , `` demand came to an unexpected halt ... No more copies were produced for many years , and if , as is claimed , Abraham Lincoln greeted Stowe in 1862 as ' the little woman who wrote the book that made this great war , ' the work had effectively been out of print for many years . '' Jewett went out of business , and it was not until Ticknor and Fields put the work back in print in November 1862 that demand began again to increase . </P> <P> The book was translated into all major languages , and in the United States it became the second best - selling book after the Bible . A number of the early editions carried an introduction by Rev James Sherman , a Congregational minister in London noted for his abolitionist views . Uncle Tom 's Cabin sold equally well in Britain , with the first London edition appearing in May 1852 and selling 200,000 copies . In a few years over 1.5 million copies of the book were in circulation in Britain , although most of these were infringing copies ( a similar situation occurred in the United States ) . </P> <H2> Plot </H2> <H3> Eliza escapes with her son , Tom sold `` down the River '' </H3> Full - page illustration by Hammatt Billings for Uncle Tom 's Cabin depicts Eliza telling Uncle Tom that he has been sold and she is running away to save her child ( first edition : Boston : John P. Jewett and Company , 1852 ) . <P> The book opens with a Kentucky farmer named Arthur Shelby facing the loss of his farm because of debts . Even though he

. More recent and high - profile changes -- including renaming such major cities as Calcutta to Kolkata -- have generated greater controversy . Since independence , such changes have typically been enacted officially by legislation at local or national Indian government level , and may or may not then be adopted by the Indian media , particularly the influential Indian press . In the case of smaller towns and districts which were less notable outside and inside India , and where a well known English name ( or exonym ) could not be said to exist , older spellings used under British India may not have had any specific legislation other than changes in practice on the romanisation of indigenous Indian language names . </P> <H3> Realignment of the official Indian English name to an alternative local name ( edit ) </H3> <P> Aside from changes to the official English spellings of local names there have also been renaming proposals to realign the official name , hence the English name with an alternative local name . Ethnically sensitive examples include the proposals by the Bharatiya Janata Party ( 1990 , 2001 ) to rename Ahmedabad to Karnavati and Allahabad to Prayag . These two proposals are changes from the Muslim ( or Mughal ) name to a Hindu native name .

ATP is the most commonly used `` energy currency '' of cells for most organisms . It is formed from adenosine diphosphate ( ADP ) and inorganic phosphate ( P ) . The overall reaction catalyzed by ATP synthase is : </P> <Ul> <Li> ADP + P + H ⇌ ATP + H O + H </Li> </Ul> <P> The formation of ATP from ADP and P is energetically unfavorable and would normally proceed in the reverse direction . In order to drive this reaction forward , ATPase couples ATP synthesis during cellular respiration to an electrochemical gradient created by the difference in proton ( H ) concentration across the mitochondrial membrane in eukaryotes or the plasma membrane in bacteria . During photosynthesis in plants , ATP is synthesized by ATPase using a proton gradient created in the thylakoid lumen through the thylakoid membrane and into the chloroplast stroma . </P> <P> ATP synthase consists of two main subunits , F and F , which has a rotational motor mechanism allowing for ATP production .

For his unauthorized feat 400 metres ( 1,000 feet ) above the ground -- which he referred to as `` le coup '' -- he rigged a 200 - kilogram ( 440 - pound ) cable and used a custom - made 8 - metre ( 30 - foot ) long , 25 - kilogram ( 55 - pound ) balancing pole . He performed for 45 minutes , making eight passes along the wire . The following week , he celebrated his 25th birthday . All charges were dismissed in exchange for him doing a performance in Central Park for children . </P> <P> Since then , Petit has lived in New York , where he has been artist - in - residence at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine , also a location of other aerial performances . He has done wire walking as part of official celebrations in New York , across the United States , and in France and other countries , as well as teaching workshops on the art . In 2008 , Man on Wire , a documentary directed by James Marsh about Petit 's walk between the towers , won numerous awards . He was also the subject of a children 's book and an animated adaptation of it , released in 2005 . The Walk , a movie based on Petit 's walk , was released in September 2015 , starring Joseph Gordon - Levitt as Petit and directed by Robert Zemeckis . </P> <P> He also became adept at equestrianism , juggling , fencing , carpentry , rock - climbing , and bullfighting . Spurning circuses and their formulaic performances , he created his street persona on the sidewalks of Paris . In the early 1970s , he visited New York City , where he frequently juggled and worked on a slackline in Washington Square Park . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Early life </Li> <Li> 2 World Trade Center walk <Ul> <Li> 2.1 Planning </Li> <Li> 2.2 Event </Li> <Li> 2.3 Aftermath </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Later life </Li> <Li> 4 Legacy and honors </Li> <Li> 5 Works and performances <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Major high - wire performances </Li> <Li> 5.2 Bibliography </Li> <Li> 5.3 Filmography </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 In culture </Li> <Li> 7 See also </Li> <Li> 8 References <Ul> <Li> 8.1 Notes </Li> <Li> 8.2 Further reading </Li> <Li> 8.3 Articles and interviews </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 9 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Early life ( edit ) </H2> <P> Petit was born in Nemours , Seine - et - Marne , France ; his father Edmond Petit was an author and an Army pilot . At an early age , Petit discovered magic and juggling . He loved to climb , and at 16 , he took his first steps on a tightrope wire . He told a reporter , </P> <P> Within one year , I taught myself to do all the things you could do on a wire . I learned the backward somersault , the front somersault , the unicycle , the bicycle , the chair on the wire , jumping through hoops . But I thought , `` What is the big deal here ? It looks almost ugly . '' So I started to discard those tricks and to reinvent my art . </P> <P> In June 1971 , Petit secretly installed a cable between the two towers of Notre Dame de Paris . On the morning of June 26 , 1971 , he `` juggled balls '' and `` pranced back and forth '' as the crowd below applauded . </P> <H2> World Trade Center walk ( edit ) </H2> <P> Before his Twin Towers walk , Petit was known to New Yorkers for his frequent tightrope - walking performances and magic shows in the parks of New York , especially Washington Square Park . Petit 's most famous performance was in August 1974 , conducted on a wire between the roofs of the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in Manhattan , a quarter mile above the ground . He performed for 45 minutes , making eight passes along the wire , during which he walked , danced , lay down on the wire , and saluted watchers from a kneeling position . Office workers , construction crews and policemen cheered him on . </P> <H3> Planning ( edit ) </H3> <P> Petit conceived his `` coup '' when he was 18 , when he first read about the proposed construction of the Twin Towers and saw drawings of the project in a magazine , which he read while sitting at a dentist 's office in 1968 . Petit was seized by the idea of performing there , and began collecting articles on the Towers whenever he could . </P> <P> What was called the `` artistic crime of the century '' took Petit six years of planning , during which he learned everything he could about the buildings and their construction . In the same period , he began to perform high wire walking at other famous places . Rigging his

There are 13 Hox transcription factors and - along with the signals - these determine whether a motor neuron will be more rostral or caudal in character .

The cells that make up the primary motor cortex are Betz cells , which are a type of pyramidal cell . The axons of these cells descend from the cortex to form the corticospinal tract . </P> <H3> White matter Tract ( edit ) </H3> <P> White matter tracts are bundles of axons and serve as means to propagate nerve impulses on a large scale . These are found in the spinal cord and appear white from the myelin surrounding axons . While these tracts exist for both efferent and afferent nerves , efferent nerves will carry signals down the spinal cord toward their effector target . These tracts also serve as the place of origin for lower motor neurons . There are seven major white matter motor tracts to be found in the spinal cord and are listed below : </P> <Ul> <Li> Lateral Corticospinal Tract </Li> <Li> Rubrospinal Tract </Li> <Li> Lateral Reticulospinal Tract </Li> <Li> Vestibulospinal tract </Li> <Li> Medial Reticulospinal Tract </Li> <Li> Tectospinal Tract </Li> <Li> Anterior Corticospinal Tract </Li> </Ul> <H3> Lower motor neurons ( edit ) </H3> <P> Lower motor neurons are those that originate in the spinal cord and directly or indirectly innervate effector targets . The target of these neurons varies , but in the somatic nervous system the target will be some sort of muscle fiber . There are three primary categories lower motor neurons , which can be further divided in sub-categories . </P> <P> According to their targets , motor neurons are classified into three broad categories : </P> <Ul> <Li> Somatic motor neurons </Li> <Li> Special visceral motor neurons </Li> <Li> General visceral motor neurons </Li> </Ul> <H3> Somatic motor neurons ( edit ) </H3> <P> Somatic motor neurons originate in the central nervous system , project their axons to skeletal muscles ( such as the muscles of the limbs , abdominal , and intercostal muscles ) , which are involved in locomotion . The three types of these neurons are the alpha efferent neurons , beta efferent neurons , and gamma efferent neurons . They are called efferent to indicate the flow of information from the central nervous system ( CNS ) to the periphery . </P> <Ul> <Li> Alpha motor neurons innervate extrafusal muscle fibers , which are the main force - generating component of a muscle . Their cell bodies are in the ventral horn of the spinal cord and they are sometimes called ventral horn cells . A single motor neuron may synapse with 150 muscle fibers on average . The motor neuron and all of the muscle fibers to which it connects is a motor unit . Motor units are split up into 3 categories : Main Article : Motor Unit <Ul> <Li> Slow ( S ) motor units stimulate small muscle fibers , which contract very slowly and provide small amounts of energy but are very resistant to fatigue , so they are used to sustain muscular contraction , such as keeping the body upright . They gain their energy via oxidative means and hence require oxygen . They are also called red fibers . </Li> <Li> Fast fatiguing ( FF ) motor units stimulate larger muscle groups , which apply large amounts of force but fatigue very quickly . They are used for tasks that require large brief bursts on energy , such as jumping or running . They gain their energy via glycolytic means and hence do n't require oxygen . They are called white fibers . </Li> <Li> Fast fatigue - resistant motor units stimulate moderate - sized muscles groups that do n't react as fast as the FF motor units , but can be sustained much longer ( as implied by the name ) and provide more force than S motor units . These use both oxidative and glycolytic means to gain energy . </Li> </Ul> </Li> </Ul> <P> In addition to voluntary skeletal muscle contraction , alpha motor neurons also contribute to muscle tone , the continuous force generated by noncontracting muscle to oppose stretching . When a muscle is stretched , sensory neurons within the muscle spindle detect the degree of stretch and send a signal to the CNS . The CNS activates alpha motor neurons in the spinal cord , which cause extrafusal muscle fibers to contract and thereby resist further stretching . This process is also called the stretch reflex . </P> <Ul> <Li> Beta motor neurons innervate intrafusal muscle fibers of muscle spindles , with collaterals to extrafusal fibres . There are two types of beta motor neurons : Slow Contracting - These innervate extrafusal fibers . Fast Contracting - These innervate intrafusal fibers . </Li> <Li> Gamma motor neurons innervate intrafusal muscle fibers found within the muscle spindle . They regulate the

They encounter holiday traffic but arrive at the airport . As they fail to unload in time at the drop off zone , Frank and Greg have to return later with the luggage . Greg steps in a slush puddle and they end up missing the shuttle . </P> <P> In the airport , the family 's suitcases are too heavy , so they stuff some clothes into their carry on baggage . They enter the line for security , but a child unclips a barrier separating the lines , and everybody gets scrambled . They go through security and are delayed again by somebody who has to remove all of his piercings . Manny then gets his toy stuck in an escalator , delaying them more . As a result , the family panic , grab some luggage and dash to the gate . It turns out their flight is delayed . Greg goes to dry his sock but destroys it while doing so . He hears that the flight is overbooked , and tries to stop his family boarding in exchange of a hotel stay and $300 ( soon $500 ) , but is stopped by Susan . A replacement crew for the plane is required and they finally board . </P> <P> Greg is first impressed by the plane 's first class seats before he discovers that he has to sit in economy . However , Frank collected enough air miles because of his business trips to sit in first class . In economy , Mom , Rodrick , and Manny are seated in the right row . Greg finds out he has three seats to himself , until a couple with a baby arrives late on board . The couple sit on either side of him with their baby . Greg becomes paranoid when he watches the plane 's safety video and begins to ask questions about unfortunate events . Greg is very aggravated of the other passengers because most are n't watching the safety video . Mid flight , he feels boxed in when the people in front recline and the person behind slides his feet on Greg 's armrest . Greg tries to recline his chair too but when he asks the flight attendant how , he learns that he ca n't because the row behind him is an emergency exit . He tries to swap seats

Ventricular septum . <P> Heart sounds are the noises generated by the beating heart and the resultant flow of blood through it . Specifically , the sounds reflect the turbulence created when the heart valves snap shut . In cardiac auscultation , an examiner may use a stethoscope to listen for these unique and distinct sounds that provide important auditory data regarding the condition of the heart . </P> <P> In healthy adults , there are two normal heart sounds , often described as a lub and a dub ( or dup ) , that occur in sequence with each heartbeat . These are the first heart sound ( S ) and second heart sound ( S ) , produced by the closing of the atrioventricular valves and semilunar valves , respectively . In addition to these normal sounds , a variety of other sounds may be present including heart murmurs , adventitious sounds , and gallop rhythms S and S . </P> <P> Heart murmurs are generated by turbulent flow of blood , which may occur inside or outside the heart . Murmurs may be physiological ( benign ) or pathological ( abnormal ) . Abnormal murmurs can be caused by stenosis restricting the opening of a heart valve , resulting in turbulence as blood flows through it . Abnormal murmurs may also occur with valvular insufficiency ( regurgitation ) , which allows backflow of blood when the incompetent valve closes with only partial effectiveness . Different murmurs are audible in different parts of the cardiac cycle , depending on the cause of the murmur . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Primary heart sounds <Ul> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 2 Extra heart sounds <Ul> <Li> </Li> <Li> </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3 Murmurs <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Effects of breathing </Li> <Li> 3.2 Interventions that change murmurs </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Other abnormal sounds </Li> <Li> 5 Surface anatomy </Li> <Li> 6 Recording heart sounds </Li> <Li> 7 See also </Li> <Li> 8 Notes and references </Li> <Li> 9 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Primary heart sounds ( edit ) </H2> <P> Normal heart sounds are associated with heart valves closing : </P> <H3> S ( edit ) </H3> <P> The first heart sound , or S , forms the `` lub '' of `` lub - dub '' and is composed of components M ( mitral valve closure ) and T ( tricuspid valve closure ) . Normally M precedes T slightly . It is caused by the closure of the atrioventricular valves , i.e. tricuspid and mitral ( bicuspid ) , at the beginning of ventricular contraction , or systole . When the ventricles begin to contract , so do the papillary muscles in each ventricle . The papillary muscles are attached to the cusps or leaflets of the tricuspid and mitral valves via chordae tendineae ( heart strings ) . When the papillary muscles contract , the chordae tendineae become tense and thereby prevent the backflow of blood into the lower pressure environment of the atria . The chordae tendineae act a bit like the strings on a parachute , and allow the leaflets of the valve to balloon up into the atria slightly , but not so much as to evert the cusp edges and allow back flow of blood . It is the pressure created from ventricular contraction that closes the valve , not the papillary muscles themselves . The contraction of the ventricle begins just prior to AV valves closing and prior to the semilunar valves opening . The sudden tensing of the chordae tendineae and the squeezing of the ventricles against closed semilunar valves , sends blood rushing back toward the atria , and the parachute - like valves catch the rush of blood in their leaflets causing the valve to snap shut . The S1 sound results from reverberation within the blood associated with the sudden block of flow reversal by the valves . The delay of T1 even more than normally causes the split S1 which is heard in a right bundle branch blockage . </P> <H3> </H3> <P> The second heart sound , or S , forms the `` dub '' of `` lub - dub '' and is composed of components A ( aortic valve closure ) and P ( pulmonary valve closure ) . Normally A precedes P especially during inspiration where a split of S can be heard . It is caused by the closure of the semilunar valves ( the aortic valve and pulmonary valve ) at the end of ventricular systole and the beginning of ventricular diastole . As the left ventricle empties , its pressure falls below the pressure in the aorta . Aortic blood flow quickly reverses back toward the left ventricle , catching the pocket -

Muscle relaxant - wikipedia <H1> Muscle relaxant </H1> Jump to : navigation , search This article is about skeletal muscle relaxants . For information on smooth muscle relaxants , see Antispasmodic . <P> A muscle relaxant is a drug that affects skeletal muscle function and decreases the muscle tone . It may be used to alleviate symptoms such as muscle spasms , pain , and hyperreflexia . The term `` muscle relaxant '' is used to refer to two major therapeutic groups : neuromuscular blockers and spasmolytics . Neuromuscular blockers act by interfering with transmission at the neuromuscular end plate and have no central nervous system ( CNS ) activity . They are often used during surgical procedures and in intensive care and emergency medicine to cause temporary paralysis . Spasmolytics , also known as `` centrally acting '' muscle relaxants , are used to alleviate musculoskeletal pain and spasms and to reduce spasticity in a variety of neurological conditions . While both neuromuscular blockers and spasmolytics are often grouped together as muscle relaxants , the term is commonly used to refer to spasmolytics only . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History </Li> <Li> 2 Neuromuscular blockers </Li> <Li> 3 Spasmolytics <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Terminology </Li> <Li> 3.2 Clinical use </Li> <Li> 3.3 Mechanism </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Side effects </Li> <Li> 5 See also </Li> <Li> 6 References </Li> <Li> 7 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <P> The earliest known use of muscle relaxant drugs was by natives of the Amazon Basin in South America who used poison - tipped arrows that produced death by skeletal muscle paralysis . This was first documented in the 16th century , when European explorers encountered it . This poison , known today as curare , led to some of the earliest scientific studies in pharmacology . Its active ingredient , tubocurarine , as well as many synthetic derivatives , played a significant role in scientific experiments to determine the function of acetylcholine in neuromuscular transmission . By 1943 , neuromuscular blocking drugs became established as muscle relaxants in the practice of anesthesia and surgery . </P> <P> The U.S. Food and Drug Administration ( FDA ) approved the use of carisoprodol in 1959 , metaxalone in August 1962 , and cyclobenzaprine in August 1977 . </P> <P> Other skeletal muscle relaxants of that type used around the world come from a number of drug categories and other drugs used primarily for this indication include orphenadrine ( anticholinergic ) , chlorzoxazone , tizanidine ( clonidine relative ) , diazepam , tetrazepam and other benzodiazepines , mephenoxalone , methocarbamol , dantrolene , baclofen , Drugs once but no longer or very rarely used to relax skeletal muscles include meprobamate , barbiturates , methaqualone , glutethimide and the like ; some subcategories of opioids have muscle relaxant properties , and some are marketed in combination drugs with skeletal and / or smooth muscle relaxants such as whole opium products , some ketobemidone , piritramide and fentanyl preparations and Equagesic . </P> <H2> Neuromuscular blockers ( edit ) </H2> Detailed view of a neuromuscular junction : 1 . Presynaptic terminal 2 . Sarcolemma 3 . Synaptic vesicle 4 . Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor 5 . Mitochondrion Main article : Neuromuscular - blocking drug <P> Muscle relaxation and paralysis can theoretically occur by interrupting function at several sites , including the central nervous system , myelinated somatic nerves , unmyelinated motor nerve terminals , nicotinic acetylcholine receptors , the motor end plate , and the muscle membrane or contractile apparatus . Most neuromuscular blockers function by blocking transmission at the end plate of the neuromuscular junction . Normally , a nerve impulse arrives at the motor nerve terminal , initiating an influx of calcium ions , which causes the exocytosis of synaptic vesicles containing acetylcholine . Acetylcholine then diffuses across the synaptic cleft . It may be hydrolysed by acetylcholine esterase ( AchE ) or bind to the nicotinic receptors located on the motor end plate . The binding of two acetylcholine molecules results in a conformational change in the receptor that opens the sodium - potassium channel of the nicotinic receptor . This allows Na + and Ca 2 + ions to enter the cell and K + ions to leave the cell , causing a depolarization of the end plate , resulting in muscle contraction . Following depolarization , the acetylcholine molecules are then removed from the end plate region and enzymatically hydrolysed by acetylcholinesterase . </P> <P> Normal end plate function can be blocked by two mechanisms . Nondepolarizing agents , such as tubocurarine , block the agonist , acetylcholine , from binding to nicotinic receptors and activating them , thereby preventing depolarization . Alternatively , depolarizing agents , such as succinylcholine , are nicotinic receptor agonists which mimic Ach , block muscle contraction by depolarizing to such an extent that it desensitizes the receptor and it can no longer initiate an action potential and cause muscle contraction . Both of these classes of neuromuscular blocking drugs are structurally similar to acetylcholine , the endogenous ligand , in many cases containing two acetylcholine molecules linked end - to - end by a rigid carbon ring system , as in pancuronium ( a nondepolarizing agent ) . </P> Chemical diagram of pancuronium , with red lines indicating the two acetylcholine `` molecules '' in the structure <H2> Spasmolytics ( edit ) </H2> Main article : antispasmodic A view of the spinal cord and skeletal muscle showing the action of various muscle relaxants -- black lines ending in arrow heads represent chemicals or actions that enhance the target of the lines , blue lines ending in squares represent chemicals or actions that inhibition the target of the line <P> The generation of the neuronal signals in motor neurons that cause muscle contractions are dependent on the balance of synaptic excitation and inhibition the motor neuron receives . Spasmolytic agents generally work by either enhancing the level of inhibition , or reducing the level of excitation .

<P> Rio Bravo is a 1959 American Western film produced and directed by Howard Hawks and starring John Wayne , Dean Martin , Ricky Nelson , Angie Dickinson , Walter Brennan , and Ward Bond . Written by Jules Furthman and Leigh Brackett , based on the short story `` Rio Bravo '' by B.H. McCampbell , the film is about the sheriff of the town of Rio Bravo , Texas , who arrests the brother of a powerful local rancher to help his drunken deputy / friend . With the help of a cripple and a young gunfighter , they hold off the rancher 's gang . Rio Bravo was filmed on location at Old Tucson Studios outside Tucson , Arizona , in Technicolor . </P> <P> In 2014 , Rio Bravo was deemed `` culturally , historically , or aesthetically significant '' by the Library of Congress and selected for preservation in the National Film Registry . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Plot </Li> <Li> 2 Cast </Li> <Li> 3 Production </Li> <Li> 4 High Noon debate </Li> <Li> 5 Reception </Li> <Li> 6 Remakes and inspirations <Ul> <Li> 6.1 Remakes </Li> <Li> 6.2 Inspirations </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 7 Music </Li> <Li> 8 Comic book adaption </Li> <Li> 9 See also </Li> <Li> 10 References </Li> <Li> 11 Further reading </Li> <Li> 12 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Plot ( edit ) </H2> <P> In the town of Rio Bravo , Texas , sheriff 's deputy Dude ( Dean Martin ) , who has acquired the contemptuous nickname Borrachón ( pronounced ( bo. raˈtʃon ) , Spanish for `` big drunk '' ) , enters a saloon but can not afford a drink . Joe Burdette ( Claude Akins ) , brother of rancher Nathan Burdette , watches as a barfly ( Myron Healey ) , tosses a silver dollar into a spittoon . Presidio County , Texas , Sheriff John T. Chance ( John Wayne ) appears and kicks the spittoon away , looking at Dude with disgust . Dude is shamed by his plight and takes out his anger on Chance , knocking him out with an ax handle . Joe begins punching Dude , then shoots and kills an unarmed bystander who tries to intervene . </P> <P> Joe heads to his brother 's saloon , where a bloody Chance comes to arrest him for the murder of the bystander . Another patron draws his gun on Chance , but Dude shoots the gun out of the man 's hand . Joe is locked up in the local jail . Chance is willing to deputize Dude , provided he can stay sober . Both remember how good with a gun Dude used to be . </P> <P> Chance 's friend Pat Wheeler ( Ward Bond ) and his wagon train of supplies stop in town , with a young gunslinger , Colorado Ryan ( Ricky Nelson ) , riding guard . Inside the jail , Stumpy ( Walter Brennan ) , Chance 's game - legged deputy , keeps watch over the jail and Joe , who knows that Stumpy holds an old grudge against Joe 's wealthy and powerful brother . Joe warns his jailers that Nathan Burdette will not like how his brother is being treated . </P> <P> A mysterious woman nicknamed Feathers ( Angie Dickinson ) is in the saloon , playing poker . In the meantime , Dude and Chance patrol the town . Hotel owner Carlos ( Pedro Gonzalez - Gonzalez ) stops the sheriff , saying Wheeler has been talking too much about Chance needing help . In the saloon , Chance implores Wheeler to stop , as it will draw attention from the wrong people . Wheeler suggests that Colorado could be of assistance , but Colorado politely declines , saying he wants to `` mind my own business '' . Colorado also promises not to start any trouble without telling the sheriff first . </P> <P> Feathers leaves the poker game a winner . Chance follows her up to her room and confronts her as a card cheat , with his evidence three missing aces from the deck of cards being used in the game and a handbill indicating she is wanted for card cheating . Colorado intervenes , saying another participant in the game is the real cheat . They confront the card cheat and prove his guilt . Chance refuses to apologize to Feathers for doing his job , but is no longer in a hurry to make her leave town . </P> <P> As Wheeler is walking back to the hotel , he is shot dead by a Burdette man hiding in the stable . Colorado offers to help , but is angrily turned away by Chance , who says , `` You had a chance to get in this and you did n't want it . '' Chance and Dude flush out the shooter , who escapes into Nathan 's saloon after Dude wounds him . Dude believes the man has muddy boots , but everyone in the bar has clean boots . Two of Burdette 's men suggest Dude needs a drink and one throws a silver dollar into a spittoon . The bartender puts a beer on the bar , but Dude notices blood dripping into the glass from above . He turns , fires , and kills the shooter . </P> <P> Chance goes back to the hotel to sleep . Without his knowledge , Feathers stands guard at the door to keep him safe , then returns to her room when he awakens . Chance discovers what she did and advises that she should leave on the next stagecoach . </P> <P> Nathan Burdette ( John Russell ) arrives in town with his men , intent on seeing his brother Joe . Dude is standing guard and confiscating all guns . One of Burdette 's men ignores him until Dude cuts one of his horse 's reins with a single shot .

of the biosynthetic pathway , along with generation of messenger RNA ( mRNA ) , aminoacylation of transfer RNA ( tRNA ) , co-translational transport , and post-translational modification . Protein biosynthesis is strictly regulated at multiple steps . They are principally during transcription ( phenomena of RNA synthesis from DNA template ) and translation ( phenomena of amino acid assembly from RNA ) . </P> <P> The cistron DNA is transcribed into the first of a series of RNA intermediates . The last version is used as a template in synthesis of a polypeptide chain . Protein will often be synthesized directly from genes by translating mRNA . However , when a protein must be available on short notice or in large quantities , a protein precursor is produced . A proprotein is an inactive protein containing one or more inhibitory peptides that can be activated when the inhibitory sequence is removed by proteolysis during posttranslational modification . A preprotein is a form that contains a signal sequence ( an N - terminal signal peptide ) that specifies its insertion into or through membranes , i.e. , targets them for secretion . The signal peptide is cleaved off in the endoplasmic reticulum . Preproproteins have both sequences ( inhibitory and signal ) still present . </P> <P> In protein synthesis , a succession of tRNA molecules charged with appropriate amino acids are brought together with an mRNA molecule and matched up by base - pairing through the anti-codons of the tRNA with successive codons of the mRNA . The amino acids are then linked together to extend the growing protein chain , and the tRNAs , no longer carrying amino acids , are released . This whole complex of processes is carried out by the ribosome , formed of two main chains of RNA , called ribosomal RNA ( rRNA ) , and more than 50 different proteins . The ribosome latches onto the end of an mRNA molecule and moves along it , capturing loaded tRNA molecules and joining together their amino acids to form a new protein chain . </P> <P> Protein biosynthesis , although very similar , is different for prokaryotes and eukaryotes . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Transcription </Li> <Li> 2 Translation </Li> <Li> 3 Events during or following protein translation </Li> <Li> 4 See also </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> <Li> 6 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Transcription ( edit ) </H2> Main article : Transcription ( genetics ) Diagram showing the process of transcription <P> Phenomena of RNA synthesis from DNA template In transcription an mRNA chain is generated , with one strand of the DNA double helix in the genome as a template . This strand is called the template strand . Transcription can be divided into 3 stages : initiation , elongation , and termination , each regulated by a large number of proteins such as transcription factors and coactivators that ensure that the correct gene is transcribed . </P> <P> Transcription occurs in the cell nucleus , where the DNA is held . The DNA structure of the cell is made up of two helixes made up of sugar and phosphate held together by hydrogen bonds between the bases of opposite strands . The sugar and the phosphate in each strand are joined together by stronger phosphodiester covalent bonds . The DNA is `` unzipped '' ( disruption of hydrogen bonds between different single strands ) by the enzyme helicase , leaving the single nucleotide chain open to be copied . RNA polymerase reads the DNA strand from the 3 - prime ( 3 ' ) end to the 5 - prime ( 5 ' ) end , while it synthesizes a single strand of messenger RNA in the 5 ' - to - 3 ' direction . The general RNA structure is very similar to the DNA structure , but in RNA the nucleotide uracil takes the place that thymine occupies in DNA . The single strand of mRNA leaves the nucleus through nuclear pores , and migrates into the cytoplasm . </P> <P> The first product of transcription differs in prokaryotic cells from that of eukaryotic cells , as in prokaryotic cells the product is mRNA , which needs no post-transcriptional modification , whereas , in eukaryotic cells , the first product is called primary transcript , that needs post-transcriptional modification ( capping with 7 - methyl - guanosine , tailing with a poly A tail ) to give hnRNA ( heterogeneous nuclear RNA ) . hnRNA then undergoes splicing of introns ( noncoding parts of the gene ) via spliceosomes to produce the final mRNA . </P> <H2> Translation ( edit ) </H2> Main article : Translation ( biology ) Diagram showing the process of translation Diagram showing the translation of mRNA and the synthesis of proteins by a ribosome <P> Phenomena of amino acid assembly from RNA . The synthesis of proteins from RNA is known as translation . In eukaryotes , translation occurs in the cytoplasm , where the ribosomes are located . Ribosomes are made of a small and large subunit that surround the mRNA . In translation , messenger RNA ( mRNA ) is decoded to produce a specific polypeptide according to the rules specified by the trinucleotide genetic code . This uses an mRNA sequence as a template to guide the synthesis of a chain of amino acids that form a protein . Translation proceeds in four phases : activation , initiation , elongation , and termination ( all describing the growth of the amino acid chain , or polypeptide that is the product of translation ) . </P> <P> In activation , the correct amino acid ( AA ) is joined to the correct transfer RNA ( tRNA ) . While this is not , in the technical sense , a step in translation , it is required for translation to proceed . The AA is joined by its carboxyl group to the 3 ' OH of the tRNA by an ester bond .

Vanishing point - wikipedia <H1> Vanishing point </H1> Jump to : navigation , search For other uses , see Vanishing point ( disambiguation ) . A vanishing point can be seen at the far end of this railroad . <P> A vanishing point is a point on the image plane of a perspective drawing where the two - dimensional perspective projections ( or drawings ) of mutually parallel lines in three - dimensional space appear to converge . When the set of parallel lines is perpendicular to a picture plane , the construction is known as one - point perspective , and their vanishing point corresponds to the oculus , or `` eye point '' , from which the image should be viewed for correct perspective geometry .

Mathematically , let q ≡ ( x , y , f ) be a point lying on the image plane , where f is the focal length ( of the camera associated with the image ) , and let v ≡ ( x / h , y / h , f / h ) be the unit vector associated with q , where h = √ x + y + f . If we consider a straight line in space S with the unit vector n ≡ ( n , n , n ) and its vanishing point v , the unit vector associated with v is equal to n , assuming both are assumed to point towards the image plane . </P> <P> When the image plane is parallel to two world - coordinate axes , lines parallel to the axis which is cut by this image plane will meet at infinity i.e. at the vanishing point . Lines parallel to the other two axes will not form vanishing points as they are parallel to the image plane . This is one - point perspective . Similarly , when the image plane intersects two world - coordinate axes , lines parallel to those planes will meet at infinity and form two vanishing points . This is called two - point perspective . In three - point perspective the image plane intersects the x , y , and z axes and therefore lines parallel to these axes intersect , resulting in three different vanishing points . </P> See also : Property 1 below <H2> Theorem ( edit ) </H2> <P> The vanishing point theorem is the principal theorem in the science of perspective . It says that the image in a picture plane π of a line L in space , not parallel to the picture , is determined by its intersection with π and its vanishing point . Some authors have used the phrase , `` the image of a line includes its vanishing point '' . Guidobaldo del Monte gave several verifications , and Humphry Ditton called the result the `` main and Great Proposition '' . Brook Taylor wrote the first book in English on perspective in 1714 , which introduced the term `` vanishing point '' and was the first to fully explain the geometry of multipoint perspective , and historian Kirsti Andersen compiled these observations . She notes , in terms of projective geometry , the vanishing point is the image of the point at infinity associated with L , as the sightline from O through the vanishing point is parallel to L . </P> <H2> Vanishing line ( edit ) </H2> <P> As a vanishing point originates in a line , so a vanishing line originates in a plane α that is not parallel to the picture π .

100 yards in a Super Bowl . Michael Irvin and Andre Reed were the first in Super Bowl XXVII , and Branch and Muhsin Muhammad the second a year earlier in Super Bowl XXXVIII . Branch also became the fourth player to have at least 100 yards receiving in back - to - back Super Bowls , joining John Stallworth , Jerry Rice and Antonio Freeman . Also , Mike Vrabel and David Givens became just the 14th and 15th players to score a touchdown in consecutive Super Bowls . Vrabel is the most surprising person on this list because he is a linebacker and he scored his on offense . They also became just the 7th and 8th players to catch a touchdown in back - to - back Super Bowls . </P> <P> With the victory , Tom Brady became just the fourth quarterback to win at least three Super Bowls , along with Terry Bradshaw , Joe Montana and Troy Aikman . Brady also became the fourth quarterback to throw a touchdown pass in three different Super Bowls . Other quarterbacks to do it were Terry Bradshaw , Joe Montana and John Elway , with Kurt Warner later accomplishing the feat during Super Bowl XLIII . </P> <P> The Patriots joined the Dallas Cowboys as the only teams in NFL history to win three Super Bowls in a span of four years . </P> <H2> Aftermath ( edit ) </H2> <P> The Patriots ' Super Bowl win was the third championship for Boston - area sports teams in 12 months , following the Patriots winning Super Bowl XXXVIII the year before and the Red Sox winning the World Series -- first in 86 years -- three months earlier . This marked the first time since 1989 -- 1990 in the San Francisco Bay Area that the same market has had 2 Super Bowl and World Series winners in 12 months . The Patriots would later appear in Super Bowl XLII and Super Bowl XLVI , losing both to Eli Manning 's New York Giants , before winning Super Bowl XLIX against the Seattle Seahawks , 28 -- 24 , ten years later and Super Bowl LI against the Atlanta Falcons , 34 - 28 , two years later . The latest Super Bowl win for the Patriots makes it ten titles among the four Boston teams ( 5 by the Patriots , 3 by the Red Sox , and one each by the Celtics and Bruins ) since 2002 . </P> <P> For the Eagles , with the loss , the city of Philadelphia would not see its first championship since the 76ers swept the 1983 NBA Finals until the next time their city 's teams played for a championship , when the Phillies won the 2008 World Series . The Eagles did not return to the Super Bowl until 2017 , also with a 13 - 3 record , and defeating the Falcons and Vikings in the playoffs . </P> <P> The Eagles and the Patriots met again in Super Bowl LII , following the 2017 season , with the Eagles taking their revenge 41 -- 33 . </P> <P> This is the last time that a team has won back - to - back Super Bowls , with the Patriots losing their second playoff game a year later and then , for the next eight years , every team either losing their first playoff game or missing them altogether . The streak was broken in 2014 when the Seahawks defeated the Panthers and ultimately advanced to the Super Bowl , only to lose to a Patriots goal line stand . The next year , the Patriots , having faltered down the stretch , entered those playoffs as the second seed behind the Broncos , who then defeated New England in the AFC Title Game that year en route to a title of their own in Super Bowl 50 . Two years later , the Patriots , defending champions themselves from Super Bowl LI , returned to repeat their title only to lose the aforementioned Super Bowl LII . </P> <H2> Final statistics ( edit ) </H2> <P> Sources : NFL.com Super Bowl XXXIX , Super Bowl XXXIX Play Finder NE , Super Bowl XXXIX Play Finder Phi </P> <H3> Statistical comparison ( edit ) </H3> <Table> <Tr> <Th> </Th> <Th> New England Patriots </Th> <Th> Philadelphia Eagles </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> First downs </Td> <Td> 21 </Td> <Td> 24 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> First downs rushing </Td> <Td> 6 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> First downs passing </Td> <Td> 14 </Td> <Td> 18 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> First downs penalty </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Third down efficiency </Td> <Td> 4 / 12 </Td> <Td> 9 / 16 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Fourth down efficiency </Td> <Td> 0 / 0 </Td> <Td> 0 / 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Net yards rushing </Td> <Td> 112 </Td> <Td> 45 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Rushing attempts </Td> <Td> 28 </Td> <Td> 17 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Yards per rush </Td> <Td> 4.0 </Td> <Td> 2.6 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Passing -- Completions -- attempts </Td> <Td> 23 / 33 </Td> <Td> 30 / 51 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Times sacked -- total yards </Td> <Td> 2 -- 17 </Td> <Td> 4 -- 33 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Interceptions thrown </Td> <Td> 0 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Net yards passing </Td> <Td> 219 </Td> <Td> 324 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Total net yards </Td> <Td> 331 </Td> <Td> 369 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Punt returns -- total yards </Td> <Td> 4 -- 26 </Td> <Td> 3 -- 19 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Kickoff returns -- total yards </Td> <Td> 4 -- 63 </Td> <Td> 5 -- 114 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Interceptions -- total return yards </Td> <Td> 3 -- 5 </Td> <Td> 0 -- 0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Punts -- average yardage </Td> <Td> 7 -- 45.1 </Td> <Td> 5 -- 42.8 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Fumbles -- lost </Td> <Td> 1 -- 1

It rejected the skepticism , deism , and rationalism left over from the Enlightenment . At about the same time , similar movements flourished in Europe . Pietism was sweeping German countries . Evangelicalism was waxing strong in England . </P> <P> The Second Great Awakening occurred in several episodes and over different denominations ; however , the revivals were very similar . As the most effective form of evangelizing during this period , revival meetings cut across geographical boundaries , and the movement quickly spread throughout Kentucky , Tennessee and southern Ohio . Each denomination had assets that allowed it to thrive on the frontier . The Methodists had an efficient organization that depended on itinerant ministers , known as circuit riders , who sought out people in remote frontier locations . The circuit riders came from among the common people , which helped them establish rapport with the frontier families they hoped to convert . </P> <H3> Theology ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Postmillennialism <P> Postmillennialism theology dominated American Protestantism in the first half of the 19th century . Postmillennialists believed that Christ will return to earth after the `` millennium '' , which could entail either a literal 1,000 years or a figurative `` long period '' of peace and happiness . Christians thus had a duty to purify society in preparation for that return . This duty extended beyond American borders to include Christian Restorationism . George Fredrickson argues that Postmillennial theology `` was an impetus to the promotion of Progressive reforms , as historians have frequently pointed out . '' During the Second Great Awakening of the 1830s , some diviners expected the millennium to arrive in a few years . By the 1840s , however , the great day had receded to the distant future , and postmillennialism became a more passive religious dimension of the wider middle - class pursuit of reform and progress . </P> <H3> Burned - over district ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Burned - over district <P> In the early nineteenth century , western New York State was called the `` burned - over district '' because of the highly publicized revivals that crisscrossed the region . Charles Finney , a leading revivalist active in the area , coined the term . Linda K. Pritchard uses statistical data to show that compared to the rest of New York State , the Ohio River Valley in the lower Midwest , and the country as a whole , the religiosity of the Burned - over District was typical rather than exceptional . </P> <H3> West and Tidewater South ( edit ) </H3> <P> On the American Frontier , evangelical denominations sent missionary preachers and exhorters out to the people in the backcountry , which supported the growth of membership among Methodists and Baptists . Revivalists ' techniques were based on the camp meeting , with its Scottish Presbyterian roots . Most of the Scots - Irish immigrants before the American Revolutionary War settled in the backcountry of Pennsylvania and down the spine of the Appalachian Mountains . </P> <P> These denominations were based on an interpretation of man 's spiritual equality before God , which led them to recruit members and preachers from a wide range of classes and all races . Baptists and Methodist revivals were successful in some parts of the Tidewater in the South , where an increasing number of common planters , plain folk

Brenda 's mother and Roger 's wife . When thinking that Frank , Jr. is a doctor , lawyer and Lutheran , she is highly ecstatic for her daughter 's marriage . </Li> </Ul> <P> Brian Howe , Frank John Hughes and Chris Ellis portray FBI agents . Jennifer Garner cameos as a call girl . Ellen Pompeo , Elizabeth Banks , and Kaitlin Doubleday have supporting roles . The real Frank Abagnale appears in a cameo as a French police officer arresting his character . </P> <H2> Production ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Development ( edit ) </H3> <P> Frank Abagnale sold the film rights to his autobiography in 1980 . Executive Producer Michel Shane purchased the film rights in 1990 , for Paramount Pictures . By December 1997 , Barry Kemp purchased the film rights from Shane , bringing the project to DreamWorks , with Jeff Nathanson writing the script . By April 2000 , David Fincher was attached to direct over the course of a few months , but dropped out in favor of Panic Room . In July 2000 , Leonardo DiCaprio had entered discussions to star , with Gore Verbinski to direct . Steven Spielberg signed on as producer , and filming was set to begin in March 2001 . </P> <H3> Casting ( edit ) </H3> <P> Verbinski cast James Gandolfini as Carl Hanratty , Ed Harris as Frank Abagnale , Sr. , and Chloë Sevigny as Brenda Strong . Verbinski dropped out because of DiCaprio 's commitment on Gangs of New York . Lasse Hallström was in negotiations to direct by May 2001 , but dropped out in July 2001 . At this stage Harris and Sevigny left the film , but Gandolfini was still attached . Spielberg , co-founder of DreamWorks , offered the job of director to Miloš Forman , and considered hiring Cameron Crowe . During this negotiation period , Spielberg began to consider directing the film himself , eventually dropping projects such as Big Fish and Memoirs of a Geisha . Spielberg officially committed to directing in August 2001 . </P> <P> The search for Strong 's portrayer lasted months but Amy Adams was eventually cast . Spielberg `` loved '' her tape and producer Walter F. Parkes commented that she was `` as fresh and honest as anyone we 'd seen , '' which was an important element in the role . Christopher Walken was cast as Frank Abagnale , Sr. following Parkes ' suggestion . Martin Sheen played Roger Strong as he had `` intimidating presence '' . Spielberg wanted a French actress to portray Paula Abagnale to stay true to the facts . He asked for the help of Brian De Palma , who was living in Paris and he did tests with several actresses such as Nathalie Baye . Spielberg had seen Jennifer Garner on Alias and wanted her to play a small role in the film due to her busy schedule . </P> <H3> Filming ( edit ) </H3> <P> The original start date was January 2002 , but was pushed to February 7 in Los Angeles , California . Locations included Burbank , Downey , New York City , LA / Ontario International Airport ( which doubled for Miami International Airport ) , Quebec City and Montreal . The film was shot in 147 locations in only 52 days . DiCaprio reflected , `` Scenes that we thought would take three days took an afternoon '' . Filming ran from April 25 -- 30 in Park Avenue , just outside the Waldorf - Astoria Hotel . Production moved to Orange , New Jersey and returned to Brooklyn for bank and courthouse scenes . Shooting also took place at the TWA Flight Center at John F. Kennedy International Airport . Quebec City was chosen for its European character and French feel . Place Royale , within Old Quebec , stands for Montrichard -- the church in the background of the arrest scene is Notre - Dame - des - Victoires . Filming ended on May 12 in Montreal . </P> <H2> Music ( edit ) </H2> Main article : Catch Me If You Can ( soundtrack ) <P> The film 's soundtrack was released on December 10 , 2002 by DreamWorks Records . The original score was composed and conducted by John Williams . </P> <H2> Historical accuracy ( edit ) </H2> <P> Despite the various changes from real - life events , Abagnale believed Spielberg was the only filmmaker who `` could do this film justice '' . However , Abagnale had little involvement with the film . In November 2001 Abagnale reported , `` I 've never met nor spoken to Steven Spielberg and I have not read the script . I prefer not to . I understand that they now portray my father in a better light , as he really was . Steven Spielberg has told the screenplay writer ( Jeff Nathanson ) that he wants complete accuracy in the relationships and actual scams that I perpetrated . I hope in the end the movie will be entertaining , exciting , funny and bring home an important message about family , childhood and divorce '' . </P> <P> The real Abagnale never saw his father again after he ran away from home . Spielberg `` wanted to continue to have that connection where Frank kept trying to please his father ; by making him proud of him ; by seeing him in the uniform , the Pan-American uniform '' . However , Abagnale praised the idea . `` Even though I did n't see my dad again , every night after living a brilliant day and meeting many women , and making much money , I 'd come back alone to a hotel room and I would just think of my mom and dad and fantasize about getting them back together again , and cry . It 's the justification of a fantasy . '' In the shooting script the character was referred to as Joseph Shea , but was changed to Carl Hanratty

, Aichi - gun , Aichi Pref . Japan <P> The production of Toyota automobiles was started in 1933 as a division of Toyoda Automatic Loom Works devoted to the production of automobiles under the direction of the founder 's son , Kiichiro Toyoda . Its first vehicles were the A1 passenger car and the G1 in 1935 . The Toyota Motor Co. was established as an independent company in 1937 </P> Toyoda Standard Sedan AA 1936 <P> Vehicles were originally sold under the name `` Toyoda '' ( トヨダ ) , from the family name of the company 's founder , Kiichirō Toyoda . In April 1936 , Toyoda 's first passenger car , the Model AA , was completed . The sales price was 3,350 yen , 400 yen cheaper than Ford or GM cars . </P> House of Toyota founder Kiichiro Toyoda , near Toyota City <P> In September 1936 , the company ran a public competition to design a new logo . Of 27,000 entries , the winning entry was the three Japanese katakana letters for `` Toyoda '' in a circle . But Rizaburo Toyoda , who had married into the family and was not born with that name , preferred `` Toyota '' ( トヨタ ) because it took eight brush strokes ( a lucky number ) to write in Japanese , was visually simpler ( leaving off the diacritic at the end ) , and with a voiceless consonant instead of a voiced one ( voiced consonants are considered to have a `` murky '' or `` muddy '' sound compared to voiceless consonants , which are `` clear '' ) . </P> Inside the house of Toyota founder Kiichiro Toyoda , near Toyota City <P> Since toyoda literally means `` fertile rice paddies '' , changing the name also prevented the company from being associated with old - fashioned farming . The newly formed word was trademarked and the company was registered in August 1937 as the Toyota Motor Company . </P> The Supra JZA80 has now become an automobile icon the world over . Rivaling Nissan 's GTR . The MR2 SW20 , a mid-engine sports car from the 1990s . First - generation Toyopet Crown Model RSD ( 1955 / 1 -- 1958 / 10 ) Toyota at the Rally Dakar , 1992 <H3> 1940s -- 1950s ( edit ) </H3> <P> From September 1947 , Toyota 's small - sized vehicles were sold under the name `` Toyopet '' ( トヨペット ) . The first vehicle sold under this name was the Toyopet SA , but it also included vehicles such as the Toyopet SB light truck , Toyopet Stout light truck , Toyopet Crown , Toyopet Master , and the Toyopet Corona . The word `` Toyopet ( Japanese article ) '' was a nickname given to the Toyota SA due to its small size , as the result of a naming contest the Toyota Company organized in 1947 . However , when Toyota eventually entered the American market in 1957 with the Crown , the name was not well received due to connotations of toys and pets . The name was soon dropped for the American market , but continued in other markets until the mid-1960s . </P> <H3> 1960s -- 1970s ( edit ) </H3> <P> By the early 1960s , the US had begun placing stiff import tariffs on certain vehicles . The so - called `` chicken tax '' of 1964 placed a 25 % tax on imported light trucks . In response to the tariff , Toyota , Nissan Motor Co. and Honda Motor Co. began building plants in the US by the early 1980s . </P> <H3> 1980s ( edit ) </H3> With over 40 million sold , the Corolla is one of the most popular and best selling cars in the world . <P> Toyota received its first Japanese Quality Control Award at the start of the 1980s and began participating in a wide variety of motorsports . Due to the 1973 oil crisis , consumers in the lucrative US market began turning to small cars with better fuel economy . American car manufacturers had considered small economy cars to be an entry - level product , and their small vehicles employed a low level of quality to keep the price low . Conservative Toyota held on to rear - wheel - drive designs for longer than most ; while a clear first in overall production they were only third in production of front - wheel - drive cars in 1983 , behind Nissan and Honda . In part due to this , Nissan 's Sunny managed to squeeze by the Corolla in numbers built that year . </P> <P> In 1982 , the Toyota Motor Company and Toyota Motor Sales merged into one company , the Toyota Motor Corporation . Two years later , Toyota entered into a joint venture with General Motors called the New United Motor Manufacturing , Inc , NUMMI , operating an automobile - manufacturing plant in Fremont , California . The factory was an old General Motors plant that had been closed for two years . Toyota then started to establish new brands at the end of the 1980s , with the launch of their luxury division Lexus in 1989 . </P> <H3> 1990s ( edit ) </H3> <P> In the 1990s , Toyota began to branch out from producing mostly compact cars by adding many larger and more luxurious vehicles to its lineup , including a full - sized pickup , the T100 ( and later the Tundra ) , several lines of SUVs , a sport version of the Camry , known as the Camry Solara , and the Scion brand . They would also launch newer and arguably more iconic iterations of their sports cars , namely the MR2 , Celica , and Supra during this era , all of which have already become icons of the 1990s . </P> <P> With a major presence in Europe , due to the success of Toyota Team Europe

The first stable line - up consisted of Brian Jones ( guitar , harmonica ) , Mick Jagger ( lead vocals ) , Keith Richards ( guitar , backing vocals ) , Bill Wyman ( bass ) , Charlie Watts ( drums ) , and Ian Stewart ( piano ) . Stewart was removed from the official line - up in 1963 but continued as a touring member until his death in 1985 . Jones left the band less than a month before his death in 1969 , having already been replaced by Mick Taylor , who remained until 1974 . After Taylor left the band , Ronnie Wood took his place in 1975 and has been on guitar in tandem with Richards ever since . Following Wyman 's departure in 1993 , Darryl Jones joined as their touring bassist . Touring keyboardists for the band have been Nicky Hopkins ( 1967 -- 1982 ) , Ian McLagan ( 1978 -- 1981 ) , Billy Preston ( through the mid-1970s ) and Chuck Leavell ( 1982 -- present ) . The band was first led by Brian Jones , but after developing into the band 's songwriters , Jagger and Richards assumed leadership when Jones was dealing with personal troubles and legal issues . </P> <P> The Rolling Stones were at the forefront of the British Invasion of bands that became popular in the United States in 1964 , and identified with the youthful and rebellious counterculture of the 1960s . Rooted in blues and early rock and roll , the group began a short period of musical experimentation in the mid-1960s that peaked with the psychedelic album Their Satanic Majesties Request ( 1967 ) . Subsequently , the group returned to its `` bluesy '' roots with Beggars Banquet ( 1968 ) which along with its follow - ups Let It Bleed ( 1969 ) , Sticky Fingers ( 1971 ) and Exile on Main St. ( 1972 ) is generally considered to be the band 's best work and is seen as their `` Golden Age '' . During this period , they were first introduced on stage as `` The Greatest Rock and Roll Band in the World '' . Musicologist Robert Palmer attributed the endurance of the Rolling Stones to their being `` rooted in traditional verities , in rhythm - and - blues and soul music '' , while `` more ephemeral pop fashions have come and gone '' . </P> <P> The band continued to release commercially successful albums , including Some Girls ( 1978 ) and Tattoo You ( 1981 ) , which were their most popular albums worldwide . From 1983 to 1987 , tensions between Jagger and Richards almost caused the band to split . However , they managed to patch up their friendship after they separated temporarily to work on solo projects , and experienced a comeback with Steel Wheels ( 1989 ) , which was followed by a large stadium and arena tour . Since the 1990s , new recorded material from the group has been less well - received and less frequent . Despite this , the Rolling Stones have continued to be a huge attraction on the live circuit , with stadium tours in the 1990s and 2000s . By 2007 , the band had four of the top five highest - grossing concert tours of all time : Voodoo Lounge Tour ( 1994 -- 1995 ) , Bridges to Babylon Tour ( 1997 -- 1998 ) , Licks Tour ( 2002 -- 2003 ) and A Bigger Bang Tour ( 2005 -- 2007 ) . </P> <P> The Rolling Stones were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1989 and the UK Music Hall of Fame in 2004 . Rolling Stone magazine ranked them fourth on the `` 100 Greatest Artists of All Time '' list and their estimated album sales are above 250 million . They have released 30 studio albums , 18 live albums and numerous compilations . Let It Bleed ( 1969 ) was their first of five consecutive No. 1 studio and live albums in the UK . Sticky Fingers ( 1971 ) was the first of eight consecutive No. 1 studio albums in the US . In 2008 , the band ranked 10th on the Billboard Hot 100 All - Time Top Artists chart . In 2012 , the

26 and 36 AD . Acts 15 and Galatians 2 both suggest that the meeting was called to debate whether or not male Gentiles who were converting to become followers of Jesus were required to become circumcised ; circumcision was considered repulsive during the period of Hellenization of the Eastern Mediterranean . </P> <P> At the time , most followers of Jesus ( which historians refer to as Jewish Christians ) were Jewish by birth and even converts would have considered the early Christians as a part of Judaism . According to Alister McGrath , the Jewish Christians affirmed every aspect of the then contemporary Second Temple Judaism with the addition of the belief that Jesus was the Messiah . Unless males were circumcised , they could not be God 's People . The meeting was called to decide whether circumcision for gentile converts was requisite for community membership since certain individuals were teaching that `` ( u ) nless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses , you can not be saved '' . </P> <P> Circumcision as a mandate was associated with Abraham ( see also Abrahamic covenant ) , but it is cited as `` the custom of Moses '' because Moses is considered the traditional giver of the Law as a whole . The circumcision mandate was made more official and binding in the Mosaic Law Covenant . In John 7 : 22 the words of Jesus are reported to be that Moses gave the people circumcision . </P> <H2> Issues and outcome ( edit ) </H2> <P> The purpose of the meeting , according to Acts , was to resolve a disagreement in Antioch , which had wider implications than just circumcision , since circumcision is the `` everlasting '' sign of the Abrahamic Covenant ( Genesis 17 : 9 -- 14 ) . Some of the Pharisees who had become believers insisted that it was `` needful to circumcise them , and to command ( them ) to keep the law of Moses '' ( KJV ) . </P> <P> The primary issue which was addressed related to the requirement of circumcision , as the author of Acts relates , but other important matters arose as well , as the Apostolic Decree indicates . The dispute was between those , such as the followers of the `` Pillars of the Church '' , led by James , who believed , following his interpretation of the Great Commission , that the church must observe the Torah , i.e. the rules of traditional Judaism , and Paul the Apostle , who believed there was no such necessity . ( See also Supersessionism , New Covenant , Antinomianism , Hellenistic Judaism , Paul the Apostle and Judaism . ) </P> <P> At the Council , following advice offered by Simon Peter ( Acts 15 : 7 -- 11 and Acts 15 : 14 ) , Barnabas and Paul gave an account of their ministry among the gentiles ( Acts 15 : 12 ) , and the apostle James quoted from the words of the prophet Amos ( Acts 15 : 16 -- 17 , quoting Amos 9 : 11 -- 12 ) . James added his own words to the quotation : `` Known to God from eternity are all His works '' and then submitted a proposal , which was accepted by the Church and became known as the Apostolic Decree : </P> <P> It is my judgment , therefore , that we should not make it difficult for the Gentiles who are turning to God . Instead we should write to them , telling them to abstain from food polluted by idols , from sexual immorality , from the meat of strangled animals and from blood . For the law of Moses has been preached in every city from the earliest times and is read in the synagogues on every Sabbath . ( Acts 15 : 19 -- 21 ) </P> <P> Acts 15 : 23 -- 29 sets out the content of the letter written in accordance with James ' proposal . </P> <P> The Western version of Acts ( see Acts of the Apostles : Manuscripts ) adds the negative form of the Golden Rule ( `` and whatever things ye would not have done to yourselves , do not do to another '' ) . </P> <P> This determined questions wider than that of circumcision , particularly dietary questions , but also fornication and idolatry and blood , and also the application of Biblical law to non-Jews . It was stated by the Apostles and Elders in the Council : `` the Holy Spirit and we ourselves have favored adding no further burden to you , except these necessary things , to abstain from things sacrificed to idols , and from blood , and from things strangled , and from fornication . If you carefully keep yourselves from these things , you will prosper . '' ( Acts 15 : 27 -- 28 ) And this Apostolic Decree was considered binding on all the other local Christian congregations in other regions . See also Biblical law directed at non-Jews , Seven Laws of Noah , Biblical law in Christianity , and the Ten Commandments in Christianity . </P> <P> The writer of Acts gives an account of a restatement by James and the elders in Jerusalem of the contents of the letter on the occasion of Paul 's final Jerusalem visit , immediately prior to Paul 's arrest at the temple , recounting : `` When we had come to Jerusalem , the brothers received us gladly . On the following day Paul went in with us to James , and all the elders were present . '' ( Acts 21 : 17 -- 18 , ESV ) The elders then proceed to notify Paul of what seems to have been a common concern among Jewish believers , that he was teaching Diaspora Jewish converts to Christianity `` to forsake Moses , telling them not to circumcise their children or walk according to our

The cousins ' primary mode of transportation is an orange 1969 Dodge Charger that the boys affectionately refer to as the `` General Lee '' . Along the way , the family is tormented by corrupt Hazzard County Commissioner Jefferson Davis Hogg , widely known as `` Boss Hogg '' ( Burt Reynolds ) , and his willing but dimwitted henchman , Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane ( M.C. Gainey ) . </P> <P> After Rosco has the General Lee impounded after Bo and Luke 's attempt to run away from a daughter of one their many moonshine customers , Billy Prickett ( James Roday ) , a famous stock - car driver , enters Hazzard to participate in the rally . Meanwhile , Rosco plants a fake moonshine still ( `` ' cause he 's too dumb to find the real one '' ) in Uncle Jesse 's barn and seizes the Duke property in the interest of eminent domain for Boss Hogg , forcing the family to temporarily reside with neighbor and Uncle Jesse 's love - interest , Pauline ( Lynda Carter ) . Pauline informs the Dukes that Rosco seized another farm on charges , so Bo and Luke investigate a local construction site and find geologic core samples with the help of bait - shop owner Sheev ( Kevin Heffernan ) . Meanwhile , Coltrane makes arrangements to seize the General Lee as `` evidence '' from the local auto body shop run by the Dukes ' friend Cooter Davenport ( David Koechner ) , who instead turns the car into a hot rod and applies a new paint job and horn , in return for finally getting payment for all the work he has done ( `` ... ' cause that 's how this works ... '' ) for the boys in the past . </P> Sheriff 's car at location in Thousand Oaks , California <P> After retrieving the General Lee before Rosco can , the Dukes go to Atlanta to visit a local university geology lab , meeting with Katie - Lynn Johnson ( Nikki Griffin ) , a Hazzard county girl and the Dukes ' love interest , and her Australian roommate Annette ( Jacqui Maxwell ) . At the lab , they discover Boss Hogg 's intentions of turning the county into a strip coal mine . They are later arrested by Atlanta Police after running from campus police . Back in Hazzard , Daisy learns , with the help of Sheriff 's Deputy Enos Strate ( Michael Weston ) , that Billy Prickett has been hired by Boss Hogg to participate in the rally as a ringer . Boss Hogg then heads to Atlanta , where he informs the Duke boys , in lock - up , that they are too late to stop him and reveals that the vote on Hogg 's proposition is at the same time as the

Early in the 1960s , as the Country Music Association 's campaign to publicize country music was accelerating , CMA leaders determined that a new organization was needed to operate a country music museum and to carry out research and education activities beyond CMA 's scope as a trade organization . Toward this end , the nonprofit Country Music Foundation ( CMF ) was chartered by the state of Tennessee in 1964 to collect , preserve , and publicize information and artifacts relating to the history of country music . Through CMF , industry leaders raised money to build the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum , which opened on April 1 , 1967 . Located at the head of Music Row , the museum was erected on the site of a small Nashville city park . At this point , artifacts began to be displayed and a small library was begun in a loft above one of the museum 's galleries . </P> <P> Early in the 1970s the basement of the museum building was partially complete , and library expansion began , embracing not only recordings but also books and periodicals , sheet music and songbooks , photographs , business documents , and other materials . At the outset , CMA staff had run the museum , but by 1972 the museum ( already governed by its own independent board of directors ) acquired its own small staff , which has steadily increased to over 150 full - time professionals . </P> <P> Building expansion took place in 1974 , 1977 , and 1984 to store and display the museum 's growing collection of costumes , films , historic cars , musical instruments , and other artifacts . An education department was created to conduct ongoing programs with Middle Tennessee schools , an oral history program was begun , and a publications department was launched to handle books , as well as the Journal of Country Music . </P> <H2> Current museum ( edit ) </H2> <P> To become more accessible , in May 2001 the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum moved to a new , 130,000 - square - foot ( 12,000 m ) facility in the heart of downtown Nashville 's arts and entertainment district . In 2014 , the museum unveiled a $100 million expansion , doubling its size to 350,000 square feet of galleries , archival storage , education classrooms , retail stores , and special event space . </P> <P> In the museum 's core exhibition , Sing Me Back Home : A Journey Through Country Music , visitors are immersed in the history and sounds of country music , its origins and traditions , and the stories and voices of many of its architects . The story is revealed through artifacts , photographs , and text panels , recorded sound , vintage video , and interactive touchscreens . Sing Me Back Home is enhanced by numerous , rotating limited - engagement exhibits . The new ACM Gallery and the Dinah and Fred Gretsch Family Gallery offer visitors a hands - on immersion into today 's country music with artifacts from today 's country stars and a series of technology - enhanced activities . </P> <P> In addition to the galleries , the museum has the 776 - seat CMA Theater , the Taylor Swift Education Center , and multi-purpose event rental spaces . Other historic properties of the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum include the letterpress operation Hatch Show Print ( located inside the museum ) and Historic RCA Studio B ( located on Music Row ) , Nashville 's oldest surviving recording studio , where recordings by Elvis Presley , Dolly Parton , Waylon Jennings , and many others were made . </P> <P> The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum has developed multiple platforms to make its collection accessible to a wider audience . From weekly instrument demonstrations to its flagship songwriting program for schools , Words & Music , the museum offers an aggressive schedule of educational programs .

Uemura from Sharp , was the Nintendo Beam Gun Game , the precursor to the NES Zapper ( which was used in games like Duck Hunt . ) . </P> <P> Nintendo released the first solar - powered light gun , the Nintendo Beam Gun , in 1970 ; this was the first commercially available light - gun for home use , produced in partnership with Sharp . </P> <P> In 1972 , Nintendo released the Ele - Conga , one of the first programmable drum machines . It could play pre-programmed rhythms from disc - shaped punch cards , which could be altered or programmed by the user , to play different patterns . </P> <H2> 1972 -- present : electronic games ( edit ) </H2> <P> In 1972 , the first commercially available video game console , the Magnavox Odyssey , had a light gun accessory , the Shooting Gallery . This was the first involvement of Nintendo in video games . According to Martin Picard in the International Journal of Computer Game Research : `` in 1971 , Nintendo had -- even before the marketing of the first home console in the United States -- an alliance with the American pioneer Magnavox to develop and produce optoelectronic guns for the Odyssey ( released in 1972 ) , since it was similar to what Nintendo was able to offer in the Japanese toy market in 1970s '' . </P> <P> In 1973 , its focus shifted to family entertainment venues with the Laser Clay Shooting System , using the same light gun technology used in Nintendo 's Kousenjuu series of toys , and set up in abandoned bowling alleys . Following some success , Nintendo developed several more light gun machines for the emerging arcade scene . While the Laser Clay Shooting System ranges had to be shut down following excessive costs , Nintendo had found a new market . </P> <P> In 1974 , Nintendo secured the rights to distribute the Magnavox Odyssey video game console in Japan . </P> <H3> Color TV - game 6 ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Color TV Game Nintendo 's first video game system , the Color TV Game 6 <P> Nintendo at this time saw how successful video games were and began to dabble in them . Their first step in that field was to secure the rights to distribute the Magnavox Odyssey in Japan in 1975 . At the time , home video game consoles were extremely rare -- even the seminal Atari Pong console had yet to be produced . After experiencing reasonable success at this , Nintendo began developing its own video games , both for home and for arcades . In the 1970s , Mitsubishi Electric proposed joint development of `` Color TV Game Machine '' . In 1977 , they released `` Color TV Game 6 '' and `` Color TV Game 15 '' ( 6 and 15 indicates the number of games ) . </P> <P> Their first video arcade game was 1975 's EVR Race ; a handful of others followed in the next several years , Radar Scope and Donkey Kong being among the most famous of these . The early 1980s saw Nintendo 's video game division ( led by Yokoi ) creating some of its most famous arcade titles . The massively popular Donkey Kong was created in 1981 , with Shigeru Miyamoto as its mastermind , and released in the arcades and on the Atari 2600 , Intellivision , and ColecoVision video game systems ( although Nintendo themselves generally had no involvement with these early console ports ) . This release method would be used on several later Nintendo arcade games of this same period , including the original Mario Bros. ( not to be confused with the later Super Mario Bros . ) In addition to this arcade and dedicated console game activity , Nintendo was testing the consumer handheld video game waters with the Game & Watch . </P> <H3> Game & Watch and Nintendo Entertainment system ( edit ) </H3> Main articles : Game & Watch , Nintendo Entertainment System , and History of the Nintendo Entertainment System <P> Game & Watch or G&W is a line of handheld electronic games produced by Nintendo from 1980 to 1991 . Created by game designer Gunpei Yokoi , each Game & Watch features a single game to be played on an LCD screen in addition to a clock and / or an alarm . It was the earliest Nintendo product to garner major success , with 43.4 million units sold worldwide . </P> <P> In 1982 , Nintendo developed a prototype system dubbed the `` Advanced Video System '' ( or AVS for short ) and had controllers much like the NES . There were accessories such as a tape drive , a joystick and a lightgun , and along with all of that , the system was made of a computer , much like the Atari 400 , Commodore Vic - 20 and Commodore 64 . It was never released and is on display at the Nintendo World Store in New York . In July 1983 , Nintendo released the Famicom ( Family Computer ) system in Japan , which was its first attempt at a cartridge - based video game console . The system sold over 500,000 units within two months at a price around $100 USD . However , after a few months of favorable sales , Nintendo received complaints that some Famicom consoles would freeze when the player attempted to play certain games . The fault was found in a malfunctioning chip and Nintendo decided to recall all Famicom units that were currently on store shelves , which ultimately cost them approximately half a million USD . </P> <P> During this period , Nintendo rekindled their desire to release the Famicom ( Or Nintendo Entertainment System ) in the US . Since the company had very little experience with the US market , they had previously attempted to contract with Atari for the system 's distribution

has any right to continue in this country . President Franklin Delano Roosevelt , 1933 <P> Minimum wage legislation emerged at the end of the nineteenth century from the desire to end sweated labor which had developed in the wake of industrialization . Sweatshops employed large numbers of women and young workers , paying them what were considered nonliving wages that did not allow workers to afford the necessaries of life . Besides substandard wages , sweating was also associated with long work hours and unsanitary work conditions . From the 1890s to the 1920s , during the Progressive Era , a time of social activists and political reform across the United States , progressive reformers , women 's organizations , religious figures , academics , and politicians all played an important role in getting state minimum wage laws passed throughout the United States . </P> <P> The first successful attempts at using minimum wage laws to ameliorate the problem of nonliving wages occurred in the Australian state of Victoria in 1896 . Factory inspector reports and newspaper reporting on the conditions of sweated labor in Melbourne , Victoria led in 1895 to the formation of the National Anti-Sweating League which pushed the government aggressively to deal legislatively with the problem of substandard wages . The government , following the recommendation of the Victorian Chief Secretary Alexander Peacock , established wage boards which were tasked with establishing minimum wages in the labor trades which suffered from nonlivable wages . During the same time period , campaigns against sweated labor were occurring in the United States and England . </P> <P> In the United States in 1890 , a group of concerned female reformers who wanted to improve the harsh conditions of sweated workers formed the Consumer 's League of the City of New York . The consumer group sought to improve working conditions by boycotting products which were made under sweated conditions and did not conform to a code of `` fair house '' standards drawn up by them . Similar , consumer leagues formed throughout the United States , and in 1899 , they united under the National Consumer League ( NCL ) parent organization . Consumer advocacy , however , was extremely slow at changing conditions in the sweated industries . When NCL leaders in 1908 went to an international anti-sweatshop conference in Geneva , Switzerland and were introduced to Australian minimum wage legislation , which had successfully dealt with sweated labor , they came home believers and made minimum wage legislation part of their national platform . </P> <H3> 20th century ( edit ) </H3> <P> In 1910 , in conjunction with advocacy work led by Florence Kelley of the National Consumer League , the Women 's Trade Union League ( WTLU ) of Massachusetts under the leadership of Elizabeth Evans took up the cause of minimum wage legislation in Massachusetts . Over the next two years , a coalition of social reform groups and labor advocates in Boston pushed for minimum wage legislation in the state . In 1912 , Massachusetts passed the first American minimum wage legislation , which established a state commission for recommending non-compulsory minimum wages for women and children . Within eight years , at least thirteen U.S. states and the District of Columbia would pass minimum wage laws , with pressure being placed on state legislatures by the National Consumers League in a coalition with other women 's voluntary associations and organized labor . The United States Supreme Court of the Lochner era consistently invalidated compulsory minimum wage laws . Advocates for these minimum wage laws hoped that they would be upheld under the precedent of Muller v. Oregon , which upheld maximum working hours laws for women on the grounds that women required special protection that men did not . However , the Court did not extend this principle to minimum wage laws , considering the latter as interfering with the ability of employers to freely negotiate wage contracts with employees . </P> <P> In 1933 , the Roosevelt administration made the first attempt at establishing a national minimum wage , when a $0.25 per hour standard was set as part of the National Industrial Recovery Act . However , in the 1935 court case Schechter Poultry Corp. v. United States ( 295 U.S. 495 ) , the US Supreme Court declared the act unconstitutional , and the minimum wage was abolished . In 1938 , the minimum wage was re-established pursuant to the Fair Labor Standards Act , once again at $0.25 per hour ( $4.78 in 2017 dollars ) . In 1941 , the Supreme Court upheld the Fair Labor Standards Act in United States v. Darby Lumber Co. , holding that Congress had the power under the Commerce Clause to regulate employment conditions . </P> <P> The 1938 minimum wage law only applied to `` employees engaged in interstate commerce or in the production of goods for interstate commerce , '' but in amendments in 1961 and 1966 , the federal minimum wage was extended ( with slightly different rates ) to employees in large retail and service enterprises , local transportation and construction , state and local government employees , as well as other smaller expansions ; a grandfather clause in 1990 drew most employees into the purview of federal minimum wage policy , which now set the wage at $3.80 . </P> <H3> 21st century ( edit ) </H3> Legislation ( edit ) Play media An opinion video from the Economic Policy Institute about working for the tipped minimum wage of $2.13 per hour . <P> In 2006 , voters in six states ( Arizona , Colorado , Missouri , Montana , Nevada , and Ohio ) approved statewide increases in the state minimum wage . The amounts of these increases ranged from $1 to $1.70 per hour and all increases were designed to annually index to inflation . Some politicians in the United States have advocated linking the minimum wage to the Consumer Price Index , thereby increasing the wage automatically each year based on increases to the

In Captain America : Civil War , disagreement over international oversight of the Avengers fractures them into opposing factions -- one led by Steve Rogers and the other by Tony Stark . </P> <P> Development of Civil War began in late 2013 when Markus and McFeely began writing the screenplay , which borrows concepts from the 2006 comic book storyline `` Civil War '' , while also focusing on story and character elements from the previous Captain America films to conclude the trilogy . Following positive reactions to test screenings of The Winter Soldier , the Russo brothers were brought back to direct in early 2014 . The film 's title and premise were revealed in October 2014 , along with Downey 's casting ; additional cast members joined in the following months . Principal photography began in April 2015 at Pinewood Atlanta Studios in Fayette County , Georgia , and continued in the Metro Atlanta area before concluding in Germany in August 2015 , with the film being the first to use IMAX 's digital 2D cameras ( for the film 's central airport fight sequence ) . Visual effects were provided by nearly 20 different studios during the post-production process . </P> <P> Captain America : Civil War held its world premiere in Los Angeles on April 12 , 2016 , and was released in the United States on May 6 , 2016 , in 3D and IMAX 3D .

In the present day , approximately one year after Ultron 's defeat in the nation of Sokovia at the hands of the Avengers , Steve Rogers , Natasha Romanoff , Sam Wilson , and Wanda Maximoff stop Brock Rumlow from stealing a biological weapon from a lab in Lagos . Rumlow blows himself up , hoping to kill Rogers . When Maximoff throws the explosion into the sky with telekinesis , it damages a nearby building , killing several Wakandan humanitarian workers . </P> <P> U.S. Secretary of State Thaddeus Ross informs the Avengers that the United Nations ( UN ) is preparing to pass the Sokovia Accords , which will establish a UN panel to oversee and control the team . The Avengers are divided : Tony Stark supports oversight because of his role in Ultron 's creation and Sokovia 's devastation , while Rogers has more faith in his own judgment than that of a government . Helmut Zemo tracks down and kills Barnes ' old Hydra handler , stealing a book containing the trigger words that activate Barnes ' brainwashing . At a conference in Vienna where the Accords are to be ratified , a bomb kills King T'Chaka of Wakanda . Security footage indicates the bomber is Barnes , whom T'Chaka's son , T'Challa , vows to kill . Informed by Sharon Carter of Barnes ' whereabouts and the authorities ' intentions to kill him , Rogers decides to try to bring in Barnes -- his childhood friend and war comrade -- himself . Rogers and Wilson track Barnes to Bucharest and attempt to protect him from T'Challa and the authorities , but all four , including T'Challa , are apprehended . </P> <P> Impersonating a psychiatrist sent to interview Barnes , Zemo recites the words to make Barnes obey him . He questions Barnes , then sends him on a rampage to cover his own escape . Rogers stops Barnes and sneaks him away . When Barnes regains his senses , he explains that Zemo is the real Vienna bomber and wanted the location of the Siberian Hydra base , where other brainwashed `` Winter Soldiers '' are kept in cryogenic stasis . Unwilling to wait for authorization to apprehend Zemo , Rogers and Wilson go rogue , and recruit Maximoff , Clint Barton , and Scott Lang to their cause . With Ross 's permission , Stark assembles a team composed of Romanoff , T'Challa , James Rhodes , Vision , and Peter Parker to capture the renegades . Stark 's team intercepts Rogers ' group at Leipzig / Halle Airport , where they fight until Romanoff allows Rogers and Barnes to escape . The rest of Rogers ' team is captured and detained at the Raft prison , while Rhodes is partially paralyzed after being inadvertently shot down by Vision , and Romanoff goes into exile . </P> <P> Stark discovers evidence that Barnes was framed by Zemo and convinces Wilson to give him Rogers ' destination .

I want to write a classic like Yesterday but weird songs about meatballs in refrigerators come into my head -- I ca n't help it . '' </P> <P> Spektor performs using a broad vocal range , with a falsetto extension , but without any apparent break . She explores a variety of different and somewhat unorthodox vocal techniques , such as verses composed entirely of buzzing noises made with the lips and beatbox - style flourishes in the middle of ballads , and also makes use of such unusual musical techniques as using a drum stick to tap rhythms on the body of a chair . Part of her style also results from the exaggeration of certain aspects of vocalization , most notably

The first $500 note was issued by the Province of North Carolina , authorized by legislation dated May 10 , 1780 . Virginia quickly followed suit and authorized the printing of $500 and $1,000 notes on October 16 , 1780 and $2,000 notes on May 7 , 1781 . High - denomination treasury notes were issued , for example during the War of 1812 ( $1,000 notes authorized by an act dated June 30 , 1812 ) . During the American Civil War Confederate currency included $500 and $1,000 notes . During the Federal banknote issuing period ( 1861 to present ) , the earliest high - denomination notes included three - year Interest - bearing notes of $500 , $1,000 , and $5,000 , authorized by Congress on July 17 , 1861 . In total , 11 different types of U.S. currency were issued in high - denomination notes across nearly 20 different series dates . The obverse of United States banknotes generally depict either historical figures , allegorical figures symbolizing significant concepts ( e.g. , liberty , justice ) , or a combination of both . The reverse designs range from abstract scroll - work with ornate denomination identifiers to reproductions of historical art works . </P> <H2> Public versus institutional use ( edit ) </H2> <P> Series 1934 gold certificates ( $100 , $1,000 , $10,000 and $100,000 ) were issued after the gold standard was repealed and gold was compulsorily confiscated by order of President Franklin Roosevelt on March 9 , 1933 ( see United States Executive Order 6102 ) . Thus the series 1934 notes were used only for intragovernmental ( i.e. , Federal Reserve Bank ) transactions and were not issued to the public . This series was discontinued in 1940 . The series 1928 gold certificate reverse was printed in black and green . See history of the United States dollar . </P> <H2> Passive retirement ( edit ) </H2> <P> Although they are still legal tender in the United States , high - denomination bills were last printed on December 27 , 1945 , and officially discontinued on July 14 , 1969 , by the Federal Reserve System , due to ' lack of use ' . The $5,000 and $10,000 effectively disappeared well before then . </P> <P> The Federal Reserve began taking high - denomination currency out of circulation ( destroying large bills received by banks ) in 1969 . As of May 30 , 2009 , only 336 $10,000 bills were known to exist ; 342 remaining $5,000 bills ; and 165,372 remaining $1,000 bills . Due to their rarity , collectors often pay considerably more than the face value of the bills to acquire them . Some are in museums in other parts of the world . </P> <P> For the most part , these bills were used by banks and the Federal government for large financial transactions . This was especially true for gold certificates from 1865 to 1934 . However , for the most part , the introduction of an electronic money system has made large - scale cash transactions obsolete . When combined with concerns about counterfeiting and the use of cash in unlawful activities such as the illegal drug trade and money laundering , it is unlikely that the U.S. government will re-issue large denomination currency in the near future , despite the amount of inflation that has occurred since 1969 ( a $500 bill is now worth less , in real terms , than a $100 bill was worth in 1969 ) . According to the U.S. Department of Treasury website , `` The present denominations of our currency in production are $1 , $2 , $5 , $10 , $20 , $50 and $100 . The purpose of the United States currency system is to serve the needs of the public and these denominations meet that goal . Neither the Department of the Treasury nor the Federal Reserve System has any plans to change the denominations in use today .

important function of domain names is to provide easily recognizable and memorizable names to numerically addressed Internet resources . This abstraction allows any resource to be moved to a different physical location in the address topology of the network , globally or locally in an intranet . Such a move usually requires changing the IP address of a resource and the corresponding translation of this IP address to and from its domain name . </P> <P> Domain names are used to establish a unique identity . Organizations can choose a domain name that corresponds to their name , helping Internet users to reach them easily . </P> <P> A generic domain is a name that defines a general category , rather than a specific or personal instance , for example , the name of an industry , rather than a company name . Some examples of generic names are books.com , music.com , and travel.info . Companies have created brands based on generic names , and such generic domain names may be valuable . </P> <P> Domain names are often simply referred to as domains and domain name registrants are frequently referred to as domain owners , although domain name registration with a registrar does not confer any legal ownership of the domain name , only an exclusive right of use for a particular duration of time . The use of domain names in commerce may subject them to trademark law . </P> <H2> History </H2> <P> The practice of using a simple memorable abstraction of a host 's numerical address on a computer network dates back to the ARPANET era , before the advent of today 's commercial Internet . In the early network , each computer on the network retrieved the hosts file ( host. txt ) from a computer at SRI ( now SRI International ) , which mapped computer host names to numerical addresses . The rapid growth of the network made it impossible to maintain a centrally organized hostname registry and in 1983 the Domain Name System was introduced on the ARPANET and published by the Internet Engineering Task Force as RFC 882 and RFC 883 . </P> <H2> Domain name space </H2> <P> Today , the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers ( ICANN ) manages the top - level development and architecture of the Internet domain name space . It authorizes domain name registrars , through which domain names may be registered and reassigned . </P> The hierarchical domain name system , organized into zones , each served by domain name servers . <P> The domain name space consists of a tree of domain names . Each node in the tree holds information associated with the domain name . The tree sub-divides into zones beginning at the DNS root zone . </P> <H3> Domain name syntax </H3> <P> A domain name consists of one or more parts , technically called labels , that are conventionally concatenated , and delimited by dots , such as example.com . </P> <Ul> <Li> The right-most label conveys the top - level domain ; for example , the domain name www.example.com belongs to the top - level domain com . </Li> <Li> The hierarchy of domains descends from the right to the left label in the name ; each label to the left specifies a subdivision , or subdomain of the domain to the right . For example : the label example specifies a node example.com as a subdomain of the com domain , and www is a label to create www.example.com , a subdomain of example.com . Each label may contain from 1 to 63 octets . The empty label is reserved for the root node and when fully qualified is expressed as the empty label terminated by a dot . The full domain name may not exceed a total length of 253 ASCII characters in its textual representation . Thus , when using a single character per label , the limit is 127 levels : 127 characters plus 126 dots have a total length of 253 . In practice , some domain registries may have shorter limits . </Li> <Li> A hostname is a domain name that has at least one associated IP address . For example , the domain names www.example.com and example.com are also hostnames , whereas the com domain is not . However , other top - level domains , particularly country code top - level domains , may indeed have an IP address , and if so , they are also hostnames . </Li> <Li> Hostnames impose restrictions on the characters allowed in the corresponding domain name . A valid hostname is also a valid domain name , but a valid domain name may not necessarily be valid as a hostname . </Li> </Ul> <H3> Top - level domains </H3> <P> The top - level domains ( TLDs ) such as com , net and org are the highest level of domain names of the Internet . Top - level domains form the DNS root zone of the hierarchical Domain Name System . Every domain name ends with a top - level domain label . </P> <P> When the Domain Name System was devised in the 1980s , the domain name space was divided into two main groups of domains . The country code top - level domains ( ccTLD ) were primarily based on the two - character territory codes of ISO - 3166 country abbreviations . In addition , a group of seven generic top - level domains ( gTLD ) was implemented which represented a set of categories of names and multi-organizations . These were the domains gov , edu , com , mil , org , net , and int . </P> <P> During the growth of the Internet , it became desirable to create additional generic top - level domains . As of October 2009 , 21 generic top - level domains and 250 two - letter country - code top - level domains existed . In addition , the ARPA domain serves technical purposes in the infrastructure of the

He is best known for becoming the first top prize winner on the United States version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire . He held the record for the largest single win in United States game show history , until it was broken by Rahim Oberholtzer who won $1.12 million on another U.S. quiz show , Twenty One . Carpenter was also the first top prize winner among all international versions of the Who Wants to Be a Millionaire ? series . </P> <P> On the November 19 , 1999 , episode of Millionaire , Carpenter proceeded to advance to the million - dollar question without using any lifelines . He then used his Phone - A-Friend to call his father not for help , but rather to tell him he was going to win the game .

His father , Tom , worked as a computer program analyst for the Department of Veterans Affairs , while his mother , Gail , served as an administrative assistant for the Massachusetts Audubon Society . In 1986 , he enrolled at Rutgers University and graduated in 1990 with a degree in economics . In January 1991 , he joined the Internal Revenue Service after completing government exams and tests . In November 1996 , Carpenter met his future wife , Deborah , who was studying for a master 's degree at Southern Connecticut State University and worked as a manager of a Fleet Bank branch in New Haven . They married in August 1998 . At the time of his appearance on Millionaire , he was 31 years old . When he revealed his profession as an IRS officer on Millionaire , Carpenter was playfully booed by the audience . </P> <H2> Who Wants to Be a Millionaire ( edit ) </H2> <Table> <Tr> <Td colspan="2"> $1 million ( 15 of 15 ) - no time limit </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td colspan="2"> Which of these U.S. Presidents appeared on the television series `` Laugh - In '' ? </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> A : Lyndon Johnson </Td> <Td> B : Richard Nixon </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> C : Jimmy Carter </Td> <Td> D: Gerald Ford </Td> </Tr> </Table> <P> Carpenter was originally uninterested in Millionaire but eventually tuned in one night after dinner while having friends over at his house . When he found the show 's higher - tier questions to not be , in his words , `` any more difficult '' than the lower - tier ones , he decided to call in to the show 's hotline for a chance to become a contestant . Carpenter answered all of the hotline questions correctly and was on the show within two days . </P> <P> Host Regis Philbin described Carpenter as having `` cruised right through those first fourteen questions , '' he had proceeded to reach the final question without using any of his lifelines . The $1 million question was , `` Which of these U.S. Presidents appeared on the television series ' Laugh - In ' ? '' , with the choices being A ) Lyndon Johnson , B) Richard Nixon , C ) Jimmy Carter , and D ) Gerald Ford . Carpenter used his Phone - A-Friend lifeline to call his father not for help , but rather to inform him that he knew the answer . Carpenter later explained , `` I thought I 'd look so cocky if I did n't use any lifelines , so I faked it . '' </P> <P> With his win , Carpenter became the first contestant in the worldwide Millionaire franchise to win the show 's top prize . He said that the only question that had flustered him was one which asked for the location of the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral . Carpenter eventually remembered that the film Tombstone included the gunfight , and he replied correctly with the answer ' Tombstone , Arizona ' . While taking a vacation after his win , Carpenter considered quitting his job with the IRS , but eventually decided against it . He explained to Kiplinger 's Personal Finance that `` after the taxes , it 's not change - your - life kind of money if you want to eat every day . '' Carpenter also described the fame as having a bigger impact on his life than the money , later stating : `` The money does n't change your life . What happens afterwards might . '' </P> <H2> Later work ( edit ) </H2> <P> Shortly after winning on Millionaire , Carpenter played himself in a Saturday Night Live skit . Donald Trump , played by Darrell Hammond , announced that Carpenter would be his running - mate in the presidential election . Afterward , Carpenter pretended to call his

angle difference between them . If a winding is connected to earth ( grounded ) , the earth connection point is usually the center point of a wye winding . If the secondary is a delta winding , the ground may be connected to a center tap on one winding ( high leg delta ) or one phase may be grounded ( corner grounded delta ) . A special purpose polyphase transformer is the zigzag transformer . There are many possible configurations that may involve more or fewer than six windings and various tap connections . </P> Three - phase transformers 380kV / 110kV and 110kV / 20kV <H3> Grounding transformer ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Earthing transformer <P> Grounding or earthing transformers let three wire ( delta ) polyphase system supplies accommodate phase to neutral loads by providing a return path for current to a neutral . Grounding transformers most commonly incorporate a single winding transformer with a zigzag winding configuration but may also be created with a wye - delta isolated winding transformer connection . </P> <H3> Phase - shifting transformer ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Quadrature booster <P> This is a specialized type of transformer which can be configured to adjust the phase relationship between input and output . This allows power flow in an electric grid to be controlled , e.g. to steer power flows away from a shorter ( but overloaded ) link to a longer path with excess capacity . </P> <H3> Variable - frequency transformer ( edit ) </H3> Main article : Variable - frequency transformer <P> A variable - frequency transformer is a specialized three - phase power transformer which allows the phase relationship between the input and output windings to be continuously adjusted by rotating one half . They are used to interconnect electrical grids with the same nominal frequency but without synchronous phase coordination . </P> <H3> Leakage or stray field transformers ( edit ) </H3> Leakage transformer <P> A leakage transformer , also called a stray - field transformer , has a significantly higher leakage inductance than other transformers , sometimes increased by a magnetic bypass or shunt in its core between primary and secondary , which is sometimes adjustable with a set screw . This provides a transformer with an inherent current limitation due to the loose coupling between its primary and the secondary windings . In this case , it is short - circuit inductance which is actually acting as a current limiting parameter . The output and input currents are low enough to prevent thermal overload under all load conditions -- even if the secondary is shorted . </P> Uses ( edit ) <P> Leakage transformers are used for arc welding and high voltage discharge lamps ( neon lights and cold cathode fluorescent lamps , which are series connected up to 7.5 kV AC ) . It acts then both as a voltage transformer and as a magnetic ballast . </P> <P> Other applications are short - circuit - proof extra-low voltage transformers for toys or doorbell installations . </P> <H3> Resonant transformer ( edit ) </H3> Further information : Resonant inductive coupling Further information : Tesla coil § Resonant transformer <P> A resonant transformer is a transformer in which one or both windings has a capacitor across it and functions as a tuned circuit . Used at radio frequencies , resonant transformers can function as high Q factor bandpass filters . The transformer windings have either air or ferrite cores and the bandwidth can be adjusted by varying the coupling ( mutual inductance ) . One common form is the IF ( intermediate frequency ) transformer , used in superheterodyne radio receivers . They are also used in radio transmitters . </P> <P> Resonant transformers are also used in electronic ballasts for gas discharge lamps , and high voltage power supplies . They are also used in some types of switching power supplies . Here the short - circuit inductance value is an important parameter that determines the resonance frequency of the resonant transformer . Often only secondary winding has a resonant capacitor ( or stray capacitance ) and acts as a serial resonant tank circuit . When the short - circuit inductance of the secondary side of the transformer is L and the resonant capacitor ( or stray capacitance ) of the secondary side is C , The resonance frequency ω of 1 ' is as follows </P> <Dl> <Dd> ω s = 1 L s c C r = 1 ( 1 − k 2 ) L s C r ( \ displaystyle \ omega _ ( s ) = ( \ frac ( 1 ) ( \ sqrt ( L_ ( sc ) C_ ( r ) ) ) ) = ( \ frac ( 1 ) ( \ sqrt ( ( 1 - k ^ ( 2 ) ) L_ ( s ) C_ ( r ) ) ) ) ) </Dd> </Dl> <P> The transformer is driven by a pulse or square wave for efficiency , generated by an electronic oscillator circuit .

Often the corners are red with skin breakdown and crusting . It can also be itchy or painful . The condition can last for days to years . Angular cheilitis is a type of cheilitis ( inflammation of the lips ) . </P> <P> Angular cheilitis can be caused by infection , irritation , or allergies . Infections include by fungi such as Candida albicans and bacteria such as Staph . aureus . Irritants include poorly fitting dentures , licking the lips or drooling , mouth breathing resulting in a dry mouth , sun exposure , overclosure of the mouth , smoking , and minor trauma . Allergies may include substances like toothpaste , makeup , and food . Often a number of factors are involved . Other factors may include poor nutrition or poor immune function . Diagnosis may be helped by testing for infections and patch testing for allergies . </P> <P> Treatment for angular cheilitis is typically based on the underlying causes along with the use of a barrier cream . Frequently an antifungal and antibacterial cream is also tried . Angular cheilitis is a fairly common problem , with estimates that it affects 0.7 % of the population .

A fairly mild case of angular cheilitis extending onto the facial skin in a young person ( affected area is within the black oval ) . <P> Angular cheilitis is a fairly non specific term which describes the presence of an inflammatory lesion in a particular anatomic site ( i.e. the corner of the mouth ) . As there are different possible causes and contributing factors from one person to the next , the appearance of the lesion is somewhat variable . The lesions are more commonly symmetrically present on both sides of the mouth , but sometimes only one side may be affected . In some cases , the lesion may be confined to the mucosa of the lips , and in other cases the lesion may extend past the vermilion border ( the edge where the lining on the lips becomes the skin on the face ) onto the facial skin . Initially , the corners of the mouth develop a gray - white thickening and adjacent erythema ( redness ) . Later , the usual appearance is a roughly triangular area of erythema , edema ( swelling ) and breakdown of skin at either corner of the mouth . The mucosa of the lip may become fissured ( cracked ) , crusted , ulcerated or atrophied . There is not usually any bleeding . Where the skin is involved , there may be radiating rhagades ( linear fissures ) from the corner of the mouth . Infrequently , the dermatitis ( which may resemble eczema ) can extend from the corner of the mouth to the skin of the cheek or chin . If Staphylococcus aureus is involved , the lesion may show golden yellow crusts . In chronic angular cheilitis , there may be suppuration ( pus formation ) , exfoliation ( scaling ) and formation of granulation tissue . </P> <P> Sometimes contributing factors can be readily seen , such as loss of lower face height from poorly made or worn dentures , which results in mandibular overclosure ( `` collapse of jaws '' ) . If there is a nutritional deficiency underlying the condition , various other signs and symptoms such as glossitis ( swollen tongue ) may be present . In people with angular cheilitis who wear dentures , often there may be erythematous mucosa underneath the denture ( normally the upper denture ) , an appearance consistent with denture - related stomatitis . Typically the lesions give symptoms of soreness , pain , pruritus ( itching ) or burning or a raw feeling . </P> <H2> Causes ( edit ) </H2> <P> Angular cheilitis is thought to be multifactorial disorder of infectious origin , with many local and systemic predisposing factors . The sores in angular cheilitis are often infected with fungi ( yeasts ) , bacteria , or a combination thereof ; this may represent a secondary , opportunistic

One of the anthems of the 1967 Summer of Love , it is one of fewer than 30 singles to have sold over 10 million copies worldwide . </P> <P> With its Bach - derived instrumental melody , soulful vocals , and unusual lyrics -- by the song 's co-authors Gary Brooker , Keith Reid and Matthew Fisher -- `` A Whiter Shade of Pale '' reached No. 1 in several countries when released in 1967 . In the years since , it has become an enduring classic . It was the most played song in the last 75 years in public places in the UK ( as of 2009 ) , and the United Kingdom performing rights group Phonographic Performance Limited in 2004 recognised it as the most - played record by British broadcasting of the past 70 years . Also in 2004 , Rolling Stone placed `` A Whiter Shade of Pale '' 57th on its list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time . </P> <P> In 1977 , the song was named joint winner ( along with Queen 's `` Bohemian Rhapsody '' ) of `` The Best British Pop Single 1952 -- 1977 '' at the Brit Awards . In 1998 the song was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame . More than 1000 recorded cover versions by other artists are known . The song has been included in many music compilations over the decades and has also been used in the soundtracks of numerous films , including The Big Chill , Purple Haze , Breaking the Waves , The Boat That Rocked , Martin Scorsese 's segment of New York Stories , Stonewall , Oblivion and Ken Burns and Lynn Novick 's documentary series The Vietnam War . Cover versions of the song have also been featured in many films , for example , by King Curtis in Withnail and I and by Annie Lennox in The Net . </P> <P> The original writing credits were for Brooker and Reid only . On 30 July 2009 , Matthew Fisher won co-writing credit for the music in a unanimous ruling from the Law Lords . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Recording and personnel </Li> <Li> 2 Lyrics </Li> <Li> 3 Composition </Li> <Li> 4 Release and reception </Li> <Li> 5 Promotional films </Li> <Li> 6 Authorship lawsuit </Li> <Li> 7 Chart performance <Ul> <Li> 7.1 Weekly singles charts </Li> <Li> 7.2 Year - end charts </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 8 Annie Lennox version <Ul> <Li> 8.1 Charts </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 9 References </Li> <Li> 10 Sources </Li> <Li> 11 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Recording and personnel ( edit ) </H2> <P> The song was performed and recorded at Olympic Sound Studios in London , England , with Gary Brooker providing the vocals and piano , Matthew Fisher on a Hammond M - 102 organ , David Knights on bass and Ray Royer on guitar .

He overheard someone at the party saying to a woman , `` You 've turned a whiter shade of pale '' , and the phrase stuck in his mind . The original lyrics had four verses , of which only two are heard on the original recording . The third verse has been heard in live performances by Procol Harum , and more seldom also the fourth . The author of Procol Harum : Beyond the Pale , Claes Johansen , suggests that the song `` deals in metaphorical form with a male / female relationship which after some negotiation ends in a sexual act '' .

Archaeological excavations have revealed four phases of cultural significance between 3000 BC and 1000 BC . Periods I and II represent the Neolithic era ; Period IlI the Megalithic era ( of massive stone menhirs and wheel turned red pottery ) ; and Period IV relates to the early Historical Period ( Post-megalithic period ) . The findings , recorded in stratified cultural deposits representing prehistoric human activity in Kashmir , are based on detailed investigations that cover all aspects of the physical evidence of the site , including the ancient flora and fauna . </P> <P> The Burzahom site revealed the transition from the subterranean and ground level housing features of the Neolithic people to the mudbrick structures of the Megalithic people . The large cache of tools and implements made of bone and stone found at the site shows that the inhabitants were hunting and farming . </P> <P> The unearthed Antiquities ( of art , architecture , customs and rituals ) indicate that the prehistoric people of the Burzahom established contact with Central Asia and South West Asia and also had links to the Gangetic plains and peninsular India . The interaction of local and foreign influences is demonstrated by the art , architecture , customs , rituals and language demonstrated by some engravings on pottery and other artifacts .

It is 16 kilometres ( 9.9 mi ) to the northeast of Srinagar on the Naseem - Shalimar road . The elevation of the site is 1,800 metres ( 5,900 ft ) above sea - level . It is the northernmost excavated Neolithic site of India . The site is on an ancient Pleistocene lake bed . The location is in a high terrace which is part of the floodplain of the Jhelum river and has Karewa soil ( clay ) formation . The site has a commanding view of the Dal lake which is about 2 kilometres ( 1.2 mi ) away . In the Kashmiri language ' Burzahom ' means `` birch '' , a tree species ( that generally grows in the elevation range of 3,000 to 4,200 metres ( 9,800 to 13,800 ft ) in the Himalayas ) , which is found in the excavated housing area in the form of roofing material , and thus confirming the existence of the tree even in the pre-historic Neolithic times . </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <P> The first excavation at the Burzahom site was a limited exercise in 1936 , carried out by the Yale -- Cambridge Expedition headed by Helmut de Terra and Dr. Thomson Paterson . The Frontier Circle of the Archaeological Survey of India made detailed investigations of the site between 1960 and 1971 ; these were carried out by T.N. Khazanchi and his associates . </P> <P> The extensive excavations done at this site , unearthing stratified cultural deposits , were the first of their type in Kashmir . In 1944 , Mortimer Wheeler , Director General of the Archaeological Survey of India had conducted the first stratified archaeological excavations on the lines of geological model at other sites . Based on a similar model the Burzahom site has been named as the Northern Neolithic Culture in view of its distinctive structural features with profusion of tools made of bones and stones and tools representing the ritualistic practices . </P> <P> Gufkral represents another related site in the area , near the town of Tral . Also , Hariparigam , and Awantipura , in the same area , are related . </P> <P> Skeletal remains of Neolithic people found at Burzahom are similar to those found in Harappa of the Indus Valley Civilization . Some historians have stated that the Vedic Aryan culture extended into Kashmir , but archaeological investigation at Burzahom does not support the `` Aryans in Kashmir '' theory </P> <P> The management and protection of the Burzahom site , including the buffer zones , are under the jurisdiction of the Archaeological Survey of India and the State Department of Archaeology conforming to the Ancient Monuments and Sites Remains Act 1958 ( Amended in 2010 ) . </P> <P> This site was nominated on 15 April 2014 for inscription as a UNESCO World Heritage Site , and is yet to be approved . </P> <H2> Discovery ( edit ) </H2> Pot , excavated from Burzahom with painting of a wild goat with long horns and hanging ears . <P> The excavation at Burzahom was carried out in both vertical ( depth wise ) and horizontal directions ; the depth provided the stratification features while the phasing of each stratification was provided by the horizontal excavations . Four periods of continuous occupational sequence at the site were documented over a period of 11 years of investigations from 1960 to 1971 . These are : Periods I and II of the Neolithic ( Period I is called aceramic and Period II is called ceramic ) origin , particularly characterized by dwelling pits ( the largest measuring 2.74 metres ( 9 ft 0 in ) at

only a small amount is needed . Mucous membranes vary in structure in the different regions of the body but they all produce a lubricating mucus , which is either secreted by surface cells or more usually by underlying glands . The mucous membrane in the mouth continues as the thin mucosa which lines the bases of the teeth . The main component of mucus is a glycoprotein called mucin and the type secreted varies according to the region involved . Mucin is viscous , clear , and clinging . Underlying the mucous membrane in the mouth is a thin layer of smooth muscle tissue and the loose connection to the membrane gives it its great elasticity . It covers the cheeks , inner surfaces of the lips , and floor of the mouth . </P> <P> The roof of the mouth is termed the palate and it separates the oral cavity from the nasal cavity . The palate is hard at the front of the mouth since the overlying mucosa is covering a plate of bone ; it is softer and more pliable at the back being made of muscle and connective tissue , and it can move to swallow food and liquids . The soft palate ends at the uvula . The surface of the hard palate allows for the pressure needed in eating food , to leave the nasal passage clear . The lips are the mouth 's front boundary and the fauces ( the passageway between the tonsils , also called the throat ) , mark its posterior boundary . </P> <P> At either side of the soft palate are the palatoglossus muscles which also reach into regions of the tongue . These muscles raise the back of the tongue and also close both sides of the fauces to enable food to be swallowed . Mucus helps in the mastication of food in its ability to soften and collect the food in the formation of the bolus . </P> Salivary glands ( edit ) Oral cavity <P> There are three pairs of main salivary glands and between 800 and 1,000 minor salivary glands , all of which mainly serve the digestive process , and also play an important role in the maintenance of dental health and general mouth lubrication , without which speech would be impossible . The main glands are all exocrine glands , secreting via ducts . All of these glands terminate in the mouth . The largest of these are the parotid glands -- their secretion is mainly serous . The next pair are underneath the jaw , the submandibular glands , these produce both serous fluid and mucus . The serous fluid is produced by serous glands in these salivary glands which also produce lingual lipase . They produce about 70 % of the oral cavity saliva . The third pair are the sublingual glands located underneath the tongue and their secretion is mainly mucous with a small percentage of saliva . </P> <P> Within the oral mucosa ( a mucous membrane ) lining the mouth and also on the tongue and palates and mouth floor , are the minor salivary glands ; their secretions are mainly mucous and are innervated by the facial nerve ( the seventh cranial nerve ) . The glands also secrete amylase a first stage in the breakdown of food acting on the carbohydrate in the food to transform the starch content into maltose . There are other glands on the surface of the tongue that encircle taste buds on the back part of the tongue and these also produce lingual lipase . Lipase is a digestive enzyme that catalyses the hydrolysis of lipids ( fats ) . These glands are termed Von Ebner 's glands which have also been shown to have another function in the secretion of histatins which offer an early defense ( outside of the immune system ) against microbes in food , when it makes contact with these glands on the tongue tissue . Sensory information can stimulate the secretion of saliva providing the necessary fluid for the tongue to work with and also to ease swallowing of the food . </P> Saliva ( edit ) Main article : Saliva <P> Saliva moistens and softens food , and along with the chewing action of the teeth , transforms the food into a smooth bolus . The bolus is further helped by the lubrication provided by the saliva in its passage from the mouth into the esophagus . Also of importance is the presence in saliva of the digestive enzymes amylase and lipase . Amylase starts to work on the starch in carbohydrates , breaking it down into the simple sugars of maltose and dextrose that can be further broken down in the small intestine . Saliva in the mouth can account for 30 % of this initial starch digestion . Lipase starts to work on breaking down fats . Lipase is further produced in the pancreas where it is released to continue this digestion of fats . The presence of salivary lipase is of prime importance in young babies whose pancreatic lipase has yet to be developed . </P> <P> As well as its role in supplying digestive enzymes , saliva has a cleansing action for the teeth and mouth . It also has an immunological role in supplying antibodies to the system , such as immunoglobulin A . This is seen to be key in preventing infections of the salivary glands , importantly that of parotitis . </P> <P> Saliva also contains a glycoprotein called haptocorrin which is a binding protein to vitamin B. It binds with the vitamin in order to carry it safely through the acidic content of the stomach . When it reaches the duodenum , pancreatic enzymes break down the glycoprotein and free the vitamin which then binds with intrinsic factor . </P> Tongue ( edit ) <P> Food enters the mouth where the first stage in the digestive process takes place , with the action of the tongue and the secretion of saliva . The tongue is a fleshy and

It was within this period local residents and businesses had become annoyed by how crowds of young people going to clubs and music venues along the Strip caused late - night traffic congestion . In response , they lobbied the city to pass local ordinances stopping loitering and enforced a strict curfew on the Strip after 10pm . Young music fans , however , felt the new laws infringed their civil rights . </P> <P> On Saturday , November 12 , 1966 , fliers were distributed on Sunset Strip inviting people to join demonstrations later that day . Several of Los Angeles ' rock radio stations also announced a rally outside the Pandora 's Box club on the corner of Sunset Boulevard and Crescent Heights . That evening , as many as 1,000 young demonstrators , including future celebrities like Jack Nicholson and Peter Fonda ( who was handcuffed by police ) , gathered to protest against the enforcement of the curfew laws . Although the rallies began peacefully , trouble eventually broke out among the protesters and police . The unrest continued the next night and periodically throughout the rest of November and December , forcing some clubs to shut down within weeks . Against the background of these civil disturbances , Stills recorded the song on December 5 , 1966 . </P> <H2> Production ( edit ) </H2> <P> Stills said in an interview that the name of the song came about when he presented it to the record company executive Ahmet Ertegun who signed Buffalo Springfield to the Atlantic Records - owned ATCO label . He said : `` I have this song here , for what it 's worth , if you want it . '' Another producer , Charlie Greene , claims that Stills first said the above sentence to him , but credits Ahmet Ertegun with subtitling the single `` Stop , Hey What 's That Sound '' so that the song would be more easily recognized . </P> <P> The song was recorded on December 5 , 1966 at Columbia Studios , Hollywood . Tom Dowd claims he mixed the song at Atlantic 's studio in New York , though this is disputed by others . He did take part in the production of Cher 's version of the song in 1969. . The song is distinguished with the use of the guitar harmonics technique and sound . </P> <H2> Legacy ( edit ) </H2> <P> The song quickly became a well - known protest song .

Leafing through his notebook he saw the passage , `` Where are the flowers , the girls have plucked them . Where are the girls , they 've all taken husbands . Where are the men , they 're all in the army . '' These lines were taken from the traditional Cossack folk song `` Koloda - Duda '' , referenced in the Mikhail Sholokhov novel And Quiet Flows the Don ( 1934 ) , which Seeger had read `` at least a year or two before '' . </P> <P> Seeger created a song which was subsequently published in Sing Out in 1962 . He recorded a version with three verses on The Rainbow Quest album ( Folkways LP FA 2454 ) released in July 1960 .

Believing it to be a traditional song , they claimed authorship , although upon notice from Seeger they had their name removed and credited Seeger and Hickerson . Seeger acknowledged their success with this song . Their single , with `` O Ken Karanga '' as the A-side and the hit `` Where Have All The Flowers Gone ? '' the B - side , reached # 21 in the 1962 Billboard Hot 100 chart and # 4 on the Easy Listening chart . </Li> <Li> Peter , Paul and Mary included the song on their eponymous debut album ( which spent five weeks as the # 1 album in the country ) in 1962 . </Li> <Li> Marlene Dietrich performed the song in English , French , and German .

Ski lifts are another example , where the gondolas move on a closed ( continuous ) pulley system up and down the mountain .

Frank Baum . Baum 's Tin Woodman first appeared in his classic 1900 book The Wonderful Wizard of Oz , and reappeared in many other Oz books . In late 19th - century America , men made out of various tin pieces were used in advertising and political cartoons . Baum , who was editing a magazine on decorating shop windows when he wrote The Wonderful Wizard of Oz , was reportedly inspired to invent the Tin Woodman by a figure he had built out of metal parts for a shop display . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 The books </Li> <Li> 2 The Tin Man in later fiction </Li> <Li> 3 Depictions on stage and screen </Li> <Li> 4 Modern works </Li> <Li> 5 Sources of the Tin Man image </Li> <Li> 6 References </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> The books ( edit ) </H2> <P> Originally an ordinary man by the name of Nick Chopper ( the name first appearing in The Marvelous Land of Oz ) , the Tin Woodman used to make his living chopping down trees in the forests of Oz , as his father had before him . The Wicked Witch of the East enchanted his axe to prevent him from marrying his sweetheart , after being bribed by the lazy old woman who kept the Munchkin maiden as a servant , and did not wish to lose her . ( In a later book of the series , The Tin Woodman of Oz , the woman is said to be the Witch 's servant , and it is the Witch herself who decides to enchant Nick 's axe . ) The enchanted axe chopped off his limbs , one by one . Each time he lost a limb , Ku - Klip the tinsmith replaced it with a prosthetic limb made of tin . Finally , nothing was left of him but tin . However , Ku - Klip neglected to replace his heart . Once Nick Chopper was made entirely of tin , he was no longer able to love the lady he had fallen for . </P> <P> In The Wonderful Wizard of Oz , Dorothy Gale befriends the Tin Woodman after they find him rusted in the forest , as he was caught in rain , and use his oil can to release him . He follows her to the Emerald City to get a heart from The Wizard . They are joined on their adventure by the Scarecrow and the Cowardly Lion . The Wizard sends Dorothy and her friends to the Winkie Country to kill the Wicked Witch of the West . The Tin Woodman 's axe proves useful in this journey , both for chopping wood to create a bridge or raft as needed , and for chopping the heads off animals that threaten the party . When the Winged monkeys are sent by the Witch of the West against the group , they throw the Tin Woodman from a great height , damaging him badly . However Winkie Tinsmiths are able to repair him after the death of the Witch . </P> <P> His desire for a heart notably contrasts with the Scarecrow 's desire for brains , reflecting a common debate between the relative importance of the mind and the emotions . This occasions philosophical debate between the two friends as to why their own choices are superior ; neither convinces the other , and Dorothy , listening , is unable to decide which one is right . Symbolically , because they remain with Dorothy throughout her quest , she is provided with both and need not select . The Tin Woodman states unequivocally that he has neither heart nor brain , but cares nothing for the loss of his brain . Towards the end of the novel , though , Glinda praises his brain as not quite that of the Scarecrow 's . </P> <P> The Wizard turns out to be a `` humbug '' and can only provide a placebo heart made of silk and filled with sawdust . However , this is

</Li> </Ul> <H2> Physiology ( edit ) </H2> <P> After death , respiration in an organism ceases , depleting the source of oxygen used in the making of adenosine triphosphate ( ATP ) . ATP is required to cause separation of the actin - myosin cross-bridges during relaxation of muscle . When oxygen is no longer present , the body may continue to produce ATP via anaerobic glycolysis . When the body 's glycogen is depleted , the ATP concentration diminishes , and the body enters rigor mortis because it is unable to break those bridges . </P> <P> Additionally , calcium enters the cytosol after death . Calcium is released into the cytosol due to the deterioration of the sarcoplasmic reticulum . Also , the breakdown of the sarcolemma causes additional calcium to enter the cytosol . The calcium activates the formation of actin - myosin cross-bridging . Once calcium is introduced into the cytosol , it binds to the troponin of thin filaments , which causes the troponin - tropomyosin complex to change shape and allow the myosin heads to bind to the active sites of actin proteins . In rigor mortis myosin heads continue binding with the active sites of actin proteins via adenosine diphosphate ( ADP ) , and the muscle is unable to relax until further enzyme activity degrades the complex . </P> <P> Normal relaxation would occur by replacing ADP with ATP , which would destabilize the myosin - actin bond and break the cross-bridge . However , as ATP is absent , there must be a breakdown of muscle tissue by enzymes ( endogenous or bacterial ) during decomposition . As part of the process of decomposition , the myosin heads are degraded by the enzymes , allowing the muscle contraction to release and the body to relax . Decomposition of the myofilaments occurs 48 to 60 hours after the peak of rigor mortis , which occurs approximately 13 hours after death . </P> <H2> Physical Changes ( edit ) </H2> <P> At the time of death , a condition called `` primary flaccidity '' occurs . Following this , the muscles stiffen in rigor mortis . All muscles in the body are affected . Starting between two and six hours following death , rigor mortis begins with the eyelids , neck , and jaw . The sequence may be due to different lactic acid levels among different muscles , which is directly related to the difference in glycogen levels and different types of muscle fibers . </P> <P> Rigor mortis then spreads to the other muscles , including the internal organs , within the next four to six hours . The onset of rigor mortis is affected by the individual 's age , sex , physical condition , and muscular build . Rigor mortis may not be perceivable in many infant and child corpses due to their smaller muscle mass . </P> <H2> Applications in meat industry ( edit ) </H2> <P> Rigor mortis is very important in meat technology . The onset of rigor mortis and its resolution partially determine the tenderness of meat . If the post-slaughter meat is immediately chilled to 15 ° C ( 59 ° F ) , a phenomenon known as cold shortening occurs , whereby the muscle sarcomeres shrink to a third of their original length . </P> <P> Cold shortening is caused by the release of stored calcium ions from the sarcoplasmic reticulum of muscle fibers , in response to the cold stimulus . The calcium ions trigger powerful muscle contraction aided by ATP molecules . To prevent cold shortening , a process known as electrical stimulation is carried out , especially in beef carcasses , immediately after slaughter and skinning . In this process , the carcass is stimulated with alternating current , causing it to contract and relax , which depletes the ATP reserve from the carcass and prevents cold shortening . </P> <H2> Application in forensic pathology ( edit ) </H2> <P> The degree of rigor mortis may be used in forensic pathology , to determine the approximate time of death . A dead body holds its position as rigor mortis sets in . If the body is moved after death , but before rigor mortis begins , forensic techniques such as livor mortis can be applied . If the position in which a body is found does not match the location where it is found ( for example , if it is flat on its back with one arm sticking straight up ) , that could mean someone moved it . </P> <P> Several factors also affect the progression of rigor mortis , and investigators take these into account when estimating the time of death . One such factor is the ambient temperature . When conditions are warm , the onset and pace of rigor mortis are sped up by providing a conducive environment for the metabolic processes that cause decay . Low temperatures , however , slow them down . Therefore , for a person who dies outside in frozen conditions rigor mortis may last several days more than normal , so investigators may have to abandon it as a tool for determining time of death . </P> <H2> See also ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> Cadaveric spasm </Li> </Ul> <H2> References ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> ^ Jump up to : Saladin , K.S. 2010 .

The protagonist is Piscine Molitor `` Pi '' Patel , an Indian boy from Pondicherry who explores issues of spirituality and practicality from an early age . He survives 227 days after a shipwreck while stranded on a lifeboat in the Pacific Ocean with a Bengal tiger named Richard Parker . </P> <P> The novel has sold more than ten million copies worldwide . It was rejected by at least five London publishing houses before being accepted by Knopf Canada , which published it in September 2001 . The UK edition won the Man Booker Prize for Fiction the following year . It was also chosen for CBC Radio 's Canada Reads 2003 , where it was championed by author Nancy Lee . </P> <P> The French translation L'Histoire de Pi was chosen in the French CBC version of the contest Le combat des livres , where it was championed by Louise Forestier . The novel won the 2003 Boeke Prize , a South African novel award . In 2004 , it won the Asian / Pacific American Award for Literature in Best Adult Fiction for years 2001 -- 2003 .

It serves to establish and enforce one of the book 's main themes : the relativity of truth . </P> <P> Life of Pi is subdivided into three sections : </P> <H3> Part one ( edit ) </H3> <P> In the first section , the main character , by the name of Piscine Patel , an adult Canadian , reminisces about his childhood in India . His father owns a zoo in Pondicherry . The livelihood provides the family with a relatively affluent lifestyle and some understanding of animal psychology . </P> <P> The narrator describes how he acquired his full name , Piscine Molitor Patel , as a tribute to the swimming pool in France . After hearing schoolmates tease him by transforming the first name into `` Pissing '' , he establishes the short form of his name as `` Pi '' when he starts secondary school . The name , he says , pays tribute to the irrational number which is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter . </P> <P> In recounting his experiences , Pi describes several other unusual situations involving proper names : two visitors to the zoo , one a devout Muslim , and the other a committed atheist , bear identical names ; and a 450 - pound tiger at the zoo bears the name Richard Parker as the result of a clerical error , in which human and animal names were reversed . </P> <P> Pi is raised as a Hindu who practices vegetarianism . At the age of fourteen , he investigates Christianity and Islam , and decides to become an adherent of all three religions , much to his parents ' dismay , saying he `` just wants to love God . '' He tries to understand God through the lens of each religion , and comes to recognize benefits in each one . </P> <P> A few years later in 1977 , during the period when Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi declares `` The Emergency '' , Pi 's father decides to sell the zoo and immigrate with his wife and sons to Canada . </P> <H3> Part two ( edit ) </H3> <P> The second part of the novel begins with Pi 's family aboard the Tsimtsum , a Japanese freighter that is transporting animals from their zoo to North America . A few days out of port from Manila , the ship encounters a storm and sinks . Pi manages to escape in a small lifeboat , only to learn that the boat also holds a spotted hyena , an injured Grant 's zebra , and an orangutan

Long may she reign : Her heart inspire and move With wisdom from above ; And in a nation 's love Her throne maintain May just and righteous laws Uphold the public cause , And bless our Isle : Home of the brave and free , Thou land of Liberty , We pray that still on thee Kind Heav'n may smile . Not in this land alone , But be God 's mercies known From shore to shore : Lord make the nations see That men should brothers be , And form one family The wide world o'er </P> Official peace version ( edit ) <P> A less militaristic version of the song , titled `` Official peace version , 1919 '' , was first published in the hymn book Songs of Praise in 1925 . This was `` official '' in the sense that it was approved by the British Privy Council in 1919 . However , despite being reproduced in some other hymn books , it is largely unknown today . </P> <P> God save our gracious Queen ! Long live our noble Queen ! God save The Queen ! Send her victorious Happy and glorious Long to reign over us God save the Queen ! One realm of races four Blest more and ever more God save our land ! Home of the brave and free Set in the silver sea True nurse of chivalry God save our land ! Of many a race and birth From utmost ends of earth God save us all ! Bid strife and hatred cease Bid hope and joy increase Spread universal peace God save us all ! </P> Historic alternative verses ( edit ) <P> Around 1745 , anti-Jacobite sentiment was captured in a verse appended to the song , with a prayer for the success of Field Marshal George Wade 's army then assembling at Newcastle . These words attained some short - term use , although they did not appear in the published version in the October 1745 Gentleman 's Magazine . This verse was first documented as an occasional addition to the original anthem by Richard Clark in 1822 , and was also mentioned in a later article on the song , published by the Gentleman 's Magazine in October 1836 . Therein , it is presented as an `` additional verse ... though being of temporary application only ... stored in the memory of an old friend ... who was born in the very year 1745 , and was thus the associate of those who heard it first sung '' , the lyrics given being : </P> <P> Lord , grant that Marshal Wade , May by thy mighty aid , Victory bring . May he sedition hush , and like a torrent rush , Rebellious Scots to crush , God save the King . </P> <P> The 1836 article and other sources make it clear that this verse was not used soon after 1745 , and certainly before the song became accepted as the British national anthem in the 1780s and 1790s . It was included as an integral part of the song in the Oxford Book of Eighteenth Century Verse of 1926 , although erroneously referencing the `` fourth verse '' to the Gentleman 's Magazine article of 1745 . </P> <P> On the opposing side , Jacobite beliefs were demonstrated in an alternative verse used during the same period : </P> <P> God bless the prince , I pray , God bless the prince , I pray , Charlie I mean ; That Scotland we may see Freed from vile Presbyt'ry , Both George and his Feckie , Ever so , Amen . </P> <P> In May 1800 , following an attempt to assassinate King George III at London 's Drury Lane theatre , playwright Richard Sheridan immediately composed an additional verse , which was sung from the stage the same night : </P> <P> From every latent foe From the assassins blow God save the King O'er him Thine arm extend For Britain 's sake defend Our father , king , and friend God save the King ! </P> <P> Various other attempts were made during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries to add verses to commemorate particular royal or national events . For example , according to Fitzroy Maclean , when Jacobite forces bypassed Wade 's force and reached Derby , but then retreated and when their garrison at Carlisle Castle surrendered to a second government army led by King George 's son , the Duke of Cumberland , another verse was added . Other short - lived verses were notably anti-French , such as the following , quoted in the book Handel by Edward J. Dent : </P> <P> From France and Pretender Great Britain defend her , Foes let them fall ; From foreign slavery , Priests and their knavery , And Popish Reverie , God save us all . </P> <P> However , none of these additional verses survived into the twentieth century . Updated `` full '' versions including additional verses have been published more recently , including the standard three verses , Hickson 's fourth verse , Sheridan 's verse and the Marshal Wade verse . </P> <H3> Performance in the UK ( edit ) </H3> <P> The style most commonly heard in official performances was proposed as the `` proper interpretation '' by King George V , who considered himself something of an expert ( in view of the number of times he had heard it ) . An Army Order was duly issued in 1933 , which laid down regulations for tempo , dynamics and orchestration . This included instructions such as that the opening `` six bars will be played quietly by the reed band with horns and basses in a single phrase . Cornets and side - drum are to be added at the little scale - passage leading into the second half of the tune , and the full brass enters for the last eight bars '' . The official tempo for the opening section is

( September 2013 ) </Td> </Tr> </Table> <P> A continuous seven - day cycle that runs throughout history paying no attention whatsoever to the phases of the moon , having a fixed day of rest , was probably first practiced in Judaism , dated to the 6th century BC at the latest . </P> <P> In Ancient Rome , every eight days there was a nundinae . It was a market day , during which children were exempted from school and plebs ceased from work in the field and came to the city to sell the produce of their labor or practice religious rites. . </P> <P> The French Revolutionary Calendar had ten - day weeks ( called décades ) and allowed décadi , one out of the ten days , as a leisure day . </P> <P> In cultures with a four - day week , the three Sabbaths derives from the culture 's main religious tradition : Friday ( Muslim ) , Saturday ( Jewish ) , and Sunday ( Christian ) . </P> <P> The present - day concept of the relatively longer ' week - end ' first arose in the industrial north of Britain in the early part of nineteenth century and was originally a voluntary arrangement between factory owners and workers allowing Saturday afternoon off from 2pm in agreement that staff would be available for work sober and refreshed on Monday morning . The Oxford English Dictionary traces the first use of the term weekend to the British magazine Notes and Queries in 1879 . </P> <P> In 1908 , the first five - day workweek in the United States was instituted by a New England cotton mill so that Jewish workers would not have to work on the Sabbath from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday . In 1926 , Henry Ford began shutting down his automotive factories for all of Saturday and Sunday . In 1929 , the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America Union was the first union to demand a five - day workweek and receive it . After that , the rest of the United States slowly followed , but it was not until 1940 , when a provision of the 1938 Fair Labor Standards Act mandating a maximum 40 - hour workweek went into effect , that the two - day weekend was adopted nationwide . </P> <P> Over the succeeding decades , particularly in the 1940s , 1950s , and 1960s , an increasing number of countries adopted either a Friday -- Saturday or Saturday -- Sunday weekend to harmonize with international markets . A series of workweek reforms in the mid-to - late 2000s and early 2010s brought much of the Arab World in synchronization with the majority of countries around the world , in terms of working hours , the length of the workweek , and the days of the weekend . The International Labour Organization ( ILO ) currently defines a workweek exceeding 48 hours as excessive . A 2007 study by the ILO found that at least 614.2 million people around the world were working excessive hours . </P> <H2> Length ( edit ) </H2> This day planner chart ( which can be used for any months ) shows the workweek days as white boxes and the weekend days as light blue - coloured boxes . <P> Actual workweek lengths have been falling in the developed world . Every reduction of the length of the workweek has been accompanied by an increase in real per - capita income . In the United States , the workweek length reduced slowly from before the Civil War to the turn of the 20th century . A rapid reduction took place from 1900 to 1920 , especially between 1913 and 1919 , when weekly hours fell by about eight percent . In 1926 , Henry Ford standardized on a five - day workweek , instead of the prevalent six days , without reducing employees ' pay . Hours worked stabilized at about 49 per week during the 1920s , and during the Great Depression fell below 40 . During the Depression , President Herbert Hoover called for a reduction in work hours in lieu of layoffs . Later , President Franklin Roosevelt signed the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 , which established a five - day , 40 - hour workweek for many workers . The proportion of people working very long weeks has since risen , and the full - time employment of women has increased dramatically . </P> <P> The New Economics Foundation has recommended moving to a 21 - hour standard

These lotteries occurred during a period of conscription from just before World War II to 1973 . It was the first time a lottery system had been used to select men for military service since 1942 . </P> <P> The lottery numbers assigned in December 1969 were used during calendar year 1970 both to call for induction and to call for physical examination , a preliminary call covering more men . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Method </Li> <Li> 2 Origins and consequences </Li> <Li> 3 Modification </Li> <Li> 4 Present Day Use </Li> <Li> 5 References </Li> <Li> 6 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Method ( edit ) </H2> <P> The days of the year ( including February 29 ) were written on slips of paper . These pieces of paper were then placed in separate plastic capsules that were mixed in a shoebox and then dumped into a deep glass jar . Capsules were drawn from the jar one at a time . </P> <P> The first number drawn was 258 ( September 14 ) , so all registrants with that birthday were assigned lottery number 1 . The second number drawn corresponded to April 24 , and so forth . All men of draft age ( born 1944 to 1950 ) who shared a birth date would be called to serve at once . The first 195 birthdates drawn were later called to serve in the order they were drawn ; the last of these was September 24 . </P> <P> Also on December 1 , 1969 , a second lottery was held with the 26 letters of the alphabet . Among men with the same birthdate , the order of induction was determined by the ranks of the first letters of their last , first , and middle names . Anyone with initials `` JJJ '' would have been first within the shared birthdate , followed by `` JGJ '' , `` JDJ '' , and `` JXJ '' ; anyone with initials `` VVV '' would have been last . </P> SSS Draft scatterplot of the days of the year ( horizontal ) and their lottery numbers ( vertical ) . December birthdays ( far right ) were assigned many low numbers ( bottom ) , representing early induction , and few high numbers ( top ) . <P> People soon noticed that the lottery numbers were not distributed uniformly over the year . In particular , November and December births , or dates 306 to 366 , were assigned mainly to lower draft numbers representing earlier calls to serve ( see figure ) . This led to complaints that the lottery was not random as the legislation required . Analysis of the procedure suggested that mixing 366 capsules in the shoe box did not mix them sufficiently before dumping them into the jar . ( `` The capsules were put in a box month by month , January through December , and subsequent mixing efforts were insufficient to overcome this sequencing . '' ) Only five days in December -- Dec. 2 , 12 , 15 , 17 and 19 -- were higher than the last call number of 195 ; had the days been evenly distributed , 14 days in December would have been expected to remain uncalled . From January to December , the rank of the average draft pick numbers were 5 4 1 3 2 6 8 9 10 7 11 12 . A Monte Carlo simulation found that the probability of a random order of months being this close to the 1 -- 12 sequence expected for unsorted slips was 0.09 % . </P> <P> Draft lotteries were conducted again in 1970 ( for those born in 1951 ) and from 1971 to 1975 ( for 1952 to 1956 births ) . The draft numbers issued in 1972 were never used the next year to call for induction into service , because the last call was December 7 and authority to induct expired on June 30 , 1973 . </P> <P> The 1972 to 1975 lottery numbers were used to call some men born 1953 to 1956 for physical exams . The highest number called for a physical was 215 ( for tables 1970 through 1976 ) . </P> <H2> Origins and consequences ( edit ) </H2> <P> The reason for the 1969 draft was to add personnel to a war to stop the spread of communism in Vietnam . After World War II , Japan left Vietnamese Emperor Bao Dai in command . Ho Chi Minh , another Vietnamese leader , saw this as an opportunity to strike and took over Hanoi . Ho Chi Minh then set up the Democratic Republic of Vietnam . Emperor Bo , in the South , set up the Vietnam State with Saigon as the capital . Ho Chi Minh was basing his political structure off of the communist states such as Russia while Emperor Bao Dai in the south wanted a Vietnam that was modeled after the west , like the United States . </P> <P> The North and the South began armed conflict against one another until the battle of Dien Bien Phu in 1954 ended with the Viet Minh forces as the victor .

The Portal was a portable microcomputer designed and marketed by the studies and developments department of the French firm R2E Micral in 1980 at the request of the company CCMC specializing in payroll and accounting . It was based on an Intel 8085 processor , 8 - bit , clocked at 2 MHz . It was equipped with a central 64K byte Ram , a keyboard with 58 alpha numeric keys and 11 numeric keys ( separate blocks ) , a 32 - character screen , a floppy disk : capacity = 140 000 characters , of a thermal printer : speed = 28 characters / second , an asynchronous channel , a synchronous channel , a 220V power supply .

Although it was large and heavy compared to today 's laptops , with a tiny 5 '' CRT monitor , it had a near - revolutionary impact on business , as professionals were able to take their computer and data with them for the first time . This and other `` luggables '' were inspired by what was probably the first portable computer , the Xerox NoteTaker .

The Astros have played their home games at Minute Maid Park since 2000 . </P> <P> The Astros were established as the Houston Colt . 45s and entered the National League as an expansion team in 1962 along with the New York Mets .

They played in the West Division from 1969 to 1993 , and the Central Division from 1994 to 2012 . While a member of the NL , the Astros played in one World Series , in 2005 , against the Chicago White Sox , in which they were swept in four games . In 2017 , they became the first franchise in MLB history to have won a pennant in both the NL and the AL , when they defeated the New York Yankees in the ALCS .

Although expansion from the National League eventually brought an MLB team to Texas in 1962 , Houston officials had been making efforts to do so for years prior . There were four men chiefly responsible for bringing Major League Baseball to Houston : George Kirksey and Craig Cullinan , who had led a futile attempt to purchase the St. Louis Cardinals in 1952 ; R.E. `` Bob '' Smith , a prominent oilman and real estate magnate in Houston who was brought in for his financial resources ; and Judge Roy Hofheinz , a former Mayor of Houston and Harris County Judge who was recruited for his salesmanship and political style . They formed the Houston Sports Association as their vehicle for attaining a big league franchise for the city of Houston . </P> <P> Given

and for Orwell 's view that `` when the white man turns tyrant it is his own freedom that he destroys . '' </P> <P> Orwell spent some of his life in Burma in a position akin to that of the narrator , but the degree to which his account is autobiographical is disputed , with no conclusive evidence to prove it to be fact or fiction . After Orwell 's death in 1950 , the essay was republished several times , including in Shooting an Elephant and Other Essays ( 1950 ) , Inside the Whale and Other Essays ( 1957 ) , and Selected Writings ( 1958 ) . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Context </Li> <Li> 2 Events </Li> <Li> 3 Themes <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Imperialism </Li> <Li> 3.2 Conqueror and conquered </Li> <Li> 3.3 Conscience </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Film adaptation </Li> <Li> 5 Fact or fiction </Li> <Li> 6 See also </Li> <Li> 7 References </Li> <Li> 8 Further reading </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Context ( edit ) </H2> <P> Britain conquered Burma over a period of 62 years ( 1823 -- 1886 ) , during which three Anglo - Burmese wars took place , and incorporated it into its Indian Empire . It was administered as a province of India until 1937 , when it became a separate , self - governing colony , attaining its independence on January 4 , 1948 . With a strong interest in the lives of the working class , Orwell -- born in India to a middle - class family , but brought up in Britain -- held the post of assistant superintendent in the British Indian Imperial Police in Burma from 1922 to 1927 . </P> <P> `` Moulmein used to be full of elephants ... '' ( employed to ) haul logs in the timber firms . `` Ordinary tamed elephants have been part of Burmese life for centuries , ... the rare and revered white elephant , is believed in Buddhist legend to be a symbol of purity and power . '' By the time Orwell moved to Moulmein , in 1926 , `` ... he was most probably ambivalent about the colonial state of which he was a part . The Kipling - inspired romance of the Raj had been worn thin by the daily realities of his job in which , ... he witnessed ' the dirty work of Empire at close quarters ' . '' Orwell writes how he was trapped between his own resentment towards the Empire and the Burmese people 's resentment towards him . As a member of the ruling power , he is cornered into doing what the `` natives '' expect of him : `` He wears a mask , and his face grows to fit it . '' `` </P> <H2> Events ( edit ) </H2> A passport photo of Orwell , taken during his time in the Burmese police force . <P> In Moulmein , the narrator -- Orwell , writing in the first person -- is a police officer during a period of intense anti-European sentiment . Although his intellectual sympathies lie with the Burmese , his official role makes him a symbol of the oppressive imperial power . As such , he is subjected to constant baiting and jeering by the local people . </P> <P> After receiving a call regarding a normally tame elephant 's rampage , the narrator , armed with a . 44 caliber Winchester rifle and riding on a pony , goes to the town where the elephant has been seen . Entering one of the poorest quarters , he receives conflicting reports and contemplates leaving , thinking the incident is a hoax . The narrator then sees a village woman chasing away children who are looking at the corpse of an Indian whom the elephant has trampled and killed . He sends an order to bring an elephant rifle and , followed by a group of roughly a few thousand people , heads toward the paddy field where the elephant has rested in its tracks . </P> <P> Although he does not want to kill the elephant now that it seems peaceful , the narrator feels pressured by the demand of the crowd for the act to be carried out . After inquiring as to the elephant 's behavior and delaying for some time , he shoots the elephant several times , wounding it but unable to kill it . The narrator then leaves the beast , unable to be in its presence as it continues to suffer . He later learns that it was stripped , nearly to the bone , within hours . His elderly colleagues agree that killing the elephant was the best thing to do , but the younger ones believe that it was worth more than the Indian it killed . The narrator then wonders if they will ever understand that he did it `` solely to avoid looking a fool . '' </P> <H2> Themes ( edit ) </H2> <H3> Imperialism ( edit ) </H3> <P> An anti-imperialist writer , Orwell promotes the idea that , through imperialism , both conqueror and conquered are destroyed . Orwell clearly states his displeasure with colonial Britain : `` I had already made up my mind that imperialism was an evil thing ... I was all for the Burmese and all against their oppressors , the British . '' The narrator perceives that the conqueror is not in control , but it is rather the will of the people that governs his actions . As ruler , he notes that it is his duty to appear resolute , with his word being final . </P> <P> I perceived in this moment that when the white man turns tyrant it is his own freedom that he destroys . He becomes a sort of hollow , posing dummy , the conventionalized figure of a sahib . For it is the condition of his rule that he shall spend his life in trying

It is the primary operating system for Apple 's Mac family of computers . Within the market of desktop , laptop and home computers , and by web usage , it is the second most widely used desktop OS , after Microsoft Windows . </P> <P> macOS is the second major series of Macintosh operating systems . The first is colloquially called the `` classic '' Mac OS , which was introduced in 1984 , and the final release of which was Mac OS 9 in 1999 . The first desktop version , Mac OS X 10.0 , was released in March 2001 , with its first update , 10.1 , arriving later that year . After this , Apple began naming its releases after big cats , which lasted until OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion . Since OS X 10.9 Mavericks , releases have been named after landmarks in California . Apple shortened the name to `` OS X '' in 2012 and then changed it to `` macOS '' in 2016 , adopting the nomenclature that it uses for their other operating systems , iOS , watchOS , and tvOS . The latest version is macOS High Sierra , which was publicly released in September 2017 . </P> <P> Between 1999 and 2009 , Apple sold a separate series of operating systems called Mac OS X Server . The initial version , Mac OS X Server 1.0 , was released in 1999 with a user interface similar to Mac OS 8.5 . After this , new versions were introduced concurrently with the desktop version of Mac OS X . Beginning with Mac OS X 10.7 Lion , the server functions were made available as a separate package on the Mac App Store . </P> <P> macOS is based on technologies developed between 1985 and 1997 at NeXT , a company that Apple co-founder Steve Jobs created after leaving the company . The `` X '' in Mac OS X and OS X is the Roman numeral for the number 10 and is pronounced as such . The X was a prominent part of the operating system 's brand identity and marketing in its early years , but gradually receded in prominence since the release of Snow Leopard in 2009 . UNIX 03 certification was achieved for the Intel version of Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard and all releases from Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard up to the current version also have UNIX 03 certification . macOS shares its Unix - based core , named Darwin , and many of its frameworks with iOS , tvOS and watchOS . A heavily modified version of Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger was used for the first - generation Apple TV . </P> <P> Releases of Mac OS X from 1999 to 2005 can run only on the PowerPC - based Macs from that time period . After Apple announced that they were switching to Intel CPUs from 2006 onwards ,

The third U.S. President ( 1801 -- 09 ) , Thomas Jefferson , is featured on the obverse of the note . The reverse features an engraving of the painting The Declaration of Independence by John Trumbull . Throughout the $2 bill 's pre-1929 life as a large - sized note , it was issued as a United States Note , National Bank Note , silver certificate , Treasury or `` Coin '' Note and Federal Reserve Bank Note . When U.S. currency was changed to its current size , the $2 bill was issued only as a United States Note . Production went on until 1966 , when the series was discontinued . Ten years passed before the $2 bill was reissued as a Federal Reserve Note with a new reverse design . Two - dollar bills are seldom seen in circulation as a result of banking policies with businesses which has resulted in low production numbers due to lack of demand . This comparative scarcity in circulation , coupled with a lack of public knowledge that the bill is still in production and circulation , has also inspired urban legends and occasionally has created problems for people trying to use the bill to make purchases . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Denomination overview </Li> <Li> 2 Rarity </Li> <Li> 3 History <Ul> <Li> 3.1 Large - sized notes </Li> <Li> 3.2 Small size notes <Ul> <Li> 3.2. 1 1928 -- 1966 </Li> <Li> 3.2. 2 1976 -- present </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 3.3 Series dates <Ul> <Li> 3.3. 1 Large size </Li> <Li> 3.3. 2 Small size </Li> </Ul> </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 4 Visual snapshot </Li> <Li> 5 Usage <Ul> <Li> 5.1 Lockheed U-2 </Li> <Li> 5.2 Incidents </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 6 Uncut currency sheets </Li> <Li> 7 References </Li> <Li> 8 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Denomination overview ( edit ) </H2> <P> The denomination of two dollars was authorized under a congressional act , and first used in March 1862 . The denomination was continuously used until the 1960s ; by this time the United States Note was the only remaining class of U.S. currency the two - dollar bill was assigned to . In 1966 it was decided to discontinue all United States Notes from production , which included the two - dollar bill . The two - dollar bill initially was not reassigned to the Federal Reserve Note class of United States currency and was thus fully discontinued ; the Treasury Department cited the two - dollar bill 's low use and unpopularity as the reason for not immediately resuming use of the denomination . In 1976 production of the two - dollar denomination was resumed and the two - dollar bill was finally assigned as a Federal Reserve Note , with a new reverse design featuring John Trumbull 's depiction of the drafting of the United States Declaration of Independence replacing the previous design of Monticello . It has remained a current denomination since then . It was estimated that if the two - dollar bill replaced approximately half of the one - dollar bills in circulation , the federal government would be able to save about $26 million in 1976 dollars ( $112 million adjusted for inflation ) over the period from 1976 to 1981 , due to reduced production , storage , and shipping costs . </P> <P> However , due to their limited use , two - dollar bills are not printed as frequently in a new series like other denominations , which are produced according to demand . Though some cash registers accommodate the bill , its slot is often used for things like checks and rolls of coins . Some bill acceptors found in vending machines , self checkout lanes , and other automated kiosks are configured to accommodate two - dollar bills , even if the fact is not stated on the label . Although they are generally available at most banks , two - dollar bills are usually not handed out arbitrarily except upon specific request by the customer , and even then , may cause a delay with a trip to the vault . </P> <H2> Rarity ( edit ) </H2> <P> The seeming rarity of a $2 bill can be attributed to its low printing numbers as a Federal Reserve Note . Hoarding of the series due to lack of public knowledge of the $2 bill has resulted in very few bills seen in circulation . After its initial release , supplies of the Series 1976 two - dollar bill were allowed to dwindle until August 1996 when a new series dated 1995 began to be printed . This series was only printed for the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta . </P> <P> Today , there is a common misconception by the general public that the $2 bill is no longer being produced .

It was released by Interscope Records , Sony and Ultra on 17 February 2017 as the lead single from Kygo 's first EP , Stargazing . The song was written by Kygo , Gomez , Andrew Watt , Brian Lee and Ali Tamposi . It was produced by Kygo , Watt , Ben Rice and Louis Bell . A dance - pop , electropop and tropical house song , `` It Ai n't Me '' comprises an acoustic guitar line , and a build - drop arrangement in its chorus featuring pulsing piano notes , bass , synthesizers , finger - snap claps and pan flute melodies . Gomez sings the track in a husky tone , while in the chorus her vocals are reduced to recurring syllables . The lyrics are nostalgic and narrate a past relationship ruined by alcoholism and partying too often . </P> <P> In addition to reaching number one in Croatia , Lebanon , and Norway , the song attained a top five peak in Australia , Austria , Belgium , Canada , the Czech Republic , Denmark , Finland , France , Germany , Greece , Hungary , Ireland , the Netherlands , New Zealand , Poland , Portugal , Slovakia , Sweden and Switzerland .

With Watt previously working with Kygo , the DJ 's manager Myles Shear contacted Watt for a session with Kygo which Watt also facilitated for Lee and Tamposi . During their session for `` It Ai n't Me '' , they initially found the track very poor , but were trying to salvage it . Kygo and Shear suggested that they continue working on the song . After Kygo and Shear had left , Tamposi told Watt and Lee to play guitar and `` Fleetwood Mac it '' , spawning a 45 - minute jam session as well as the demo of `` It Ai n't Me '' , a simple acoustic guitar recording with Tamposi on vocals . </P> <P> Watt , Lee and Tamposi then asked Kygo to return to their studio to hear `` It Ai n't Me '' for a second time . Tamposi recalled , `` When they pushed the space bar to play the song , ( Kygo ) went from this very sweet , polite , charming young man to this super-human producer guy . I was watching his eyes go back , left and right , just mapping out how he envisioned the production of the song . He was extremely excited '' . Lee and Tamposi then left for Kygo and Watt to work on the production where they followed the melodies and message of the demo . According to Tamposi , the producers brought the song to life . </P> <P> The three songwriters would usually spend several months pitching their songs to different singers , but with `` It Ai n't Me '' Gomez heard it about a month afterward and recorded it a few days later .

and 21 for liquor . North Carolina : The legal drinking age is 18 for beer and wine , and 21 for liquor . Oklahoma : The legal drinking age is 18 for 3.2 % ABW beer , and 21 for beer stronger than 3.2 % ABW , wine and liquor . South Carolina : The legal drinking age is 18 for beer and wine , and 21 for liquor . South Dakota : The legal drinking age is 18 for 3.2 % ABW beer , and 21 for beer stronger than 3.2 % ABW , wine and liquor . Virginia : The legal drinking age is 18 for beer and wine , and 21 for liquor . Minimum legal drinking age as of 1983 ( one year before the Drinking Age Act of 1984 was passed ) : Minimum age is 21 Minimum age is 20 Minimum age is 19 and 21 Minimum age is 19 Minimum age is 18 and 21 Minimum age is 18 <P> The alcohol laws of the United States regarding minimum age for purchase have changed over time . The history is given in the table below . Unless otherwise noted , if different alcohol categories have different minimum purchase ages , the age listed below is set at the lowest age given ( e.g. if the purchase age is 18 for beer and 21 for wine or spirits , as was the case in several states , the age in the table will read as `` 18 '' , not `` 21 '' ) . In addition , the purchase age is not necessarily the same as the minimum age for consumption of alcoholic beverages , although they have often been the same . </P> <P> As one can see in the table below , there has been much volatility in the states ' drinking ages since the repeal of Prohibition in 1933 . Shortly after the ratification of the 21st amendment in December , most states set their purchase ages at 21 since that was the Voting age at the time . Most of these limits remained constant until the early 1970s . From 1969 to 1976 , some 30 states lowered their purchase ages , generally to 18 . This was primarily because the voting age was lowered from 21 to 18 in 1971 with the 26th amendment . A lot of states started to lower their minimum drinking age in response , most of this occurring in 1972 or 1973 . Twelve states kept their purchase ages at 21 since repeal of Prohibition and never changed them . </P> <P> From 1976 to 1983 , several states voluntarily raised their purchase ages to 19 ( or , less commonly , 20 or 21 ) , in part to combat drunk driving fatalities . In 1984 , Congress passed the National Minimum Drinking Age Act , which required states to raise their ages for purchase and public possession to 21 by October 1986 or lose 10 % of their federal highway funds . By mid-1988 , all 50 states and the District of Columbia had raised their purchase ages to 21 ( but not Puerto Rico , Guam , or the Virgin Islands , see Additional Notes below ) . South Dakota and Wyoming were the final two states to comply with the age 21 mandate . The current drinking age of 21 remains a point of contention among many Americans , because of it being higher than the age of majority ( 18 in most states ) and higher than the drinking ages of most other countries . The National Minimum Drinking Age Act is also seen as a congressional sidestep of the tenth amendment . Although debates have not been highly publicized , a few states have proposed legislation to lower their drinking age , while Guam has raised its drinking age to 21 in July 2010 . </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th> State </Th> <Th> Pre-Prohibition ( prior to 1919 ) </Th> <Th> Post-Prohibition ( after 1933 ) </Th> <Th> 1970s / 26th Amendment ( adopted in 1971 ) </Th> <Th> 1980s / Drinking Age Act of 1984 </Th> <Th> 21st century </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Alabama </Th> <Td> Pre 1881 : None 1881 : 21 ( none with consent of parent ) </Td> <Td> 21 </Td> <Td> 1975 : Lowered to 19 </Td> <Td> 1986 : Raised to 21 </Td> <Td> 21 ( no one underage is allowed consumption Section 28 - 1 ) </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Alaska </Th> <Td> ? </Td> <Td> 21 </Td> <Td> 1970 : Lowered to 19 </Td> <Td> 1984 : Raised to 21 with grandfather clause ( if born before January 1 , 1965 ) </Td> <Td> 21 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Arizona </Th> <Td> ? </Td> <Td> 21 </Td> <Td> 1972 : Lowered to 19 </Td> <Td> 1985 : Raised to 21 </Td> <Td> 21 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Arkansas </Th> <Td> Pre 1925 : None 1925 : 21 </Td> <Td> 21 </Td> <Td> 21 </Td> <Td> 21 </Td> <Td> 21 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> California </Th> <Td> Pre 1891 : Regulated by municipality / county ( common age was 16 ) 1891 : 18 ( statewide ) </Td> <Td> 1933 : 21 </Td> <Td> 21 </Td> <Td> 21 </Td> <Td> 21 ( except small amounts for religious ceremonies ) </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Colorado </Th> <Td> None </Td> <Td> 1945 : 18 : for beer 21 : for wine and liquor </Td> <Td> 18 </Td> <Td> Raised to 21 in 1987 </Td> <Td> 21 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Connecticut </Th> <Td> ? </Td> <Td> 21 </Td> <Td> 1972 : Lowered to 18 </Td> <Td> 1982 : Raised to 19 1983 : Raised to 20 1985 : Raised to 21 </Td> <Td> 21 ( exemptions : ( 1 ) a person over age eighteen who is an employee or permit holder under section 30 - 90a and who possesses alcoholic liquor in the course of such person 's employment or business , ( 2 ) a minor who possesses alcoholic liquor on the order of

National legal aid & Defender Association - wikipedia <H1> National legal aid & Defender Association </H1> Jump to : navigation , search <P> The National Legal Aid & Defender Association ( NLADA ) is the oldest and largest national , nonprofit membership organization devoted to advocating equal justice for all Americans and was established in 1911 . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 History </Li> <Li> 2 See also </Li> <Li> 3 References </Li> <Li> 4 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> History ( edit ) </H2> <P> The Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution and its Equal Protection Clause provides Equal justice under law . Beginning in the late 1800s and throughout the early years of the 20th century , the American legal profession expressed its commitment to the concept of free legal assistance for poor people in the form of legal aid societies and bar association legal aid committees . </P> <P> The first legal aid society , The German Society of New York , was founded in 1876 to protect German immigrants from exploitation . Subsequently , the agency 's protection was extended to others and in 1890 it became the Legal Aid Society of New York . In 1888 , the Ethical Culture Society of Chicago established by the Bureau of Justice was the first agency to offer legal assistance to individuals regardless of nationality , race or gender . Other municipalities followed suit , and in the first decades of the 20th century most major cities had opened legal aid societies . </P> <P> In 1911 , legal aid societies joined together to form the National Alliance of Legal Aid Societies . Arthur von Briesen of the Legal Aid Society of New York was the first president of the organization that became the National Legal Aid & Defender Association ( NLADA ) in 1949 . </P> <P> The concept of free legal assistance for the poor was promoted by the publication of Reginald Heber Smith 's Justice and the Poor in 1919 . Smith challenged the legal profession to consider it an obligation to see that access to justice was available to all , without regard to ability to pay . `` Without equal access to the law , '' he wrote , `` the system not only robs the poor of their only protection , but places in the hands of their oppressors the most powerful and ruthless weapon ever invented . </P> <P> As a result of Smith 's book , the American Bar Association created the Special Committee on Legal Aid Work . By the middle of the 20th century , virtually every major metropolitan area had some kind of legal aid program . However , the system established was not suffice in meeting the needs of the poor and in the early 1960s a new model for legal services programs emerged . This new model was based on the philosophy that legal services should be a component of an overall anti-poverty effort . The Ford Foundation was one of the original supporters of this model . </P> <P> Subsequently , in 1964 came the passage of the Economic Opportunity Act , which launched the war on poverty and mandated federal funds to be allocated for the first time to fund legal services to the poor . However , this law did not specifically provide for legal services and it took many years and attempts to finally devise a federal construct to support legal aid for the low - income community . After years of research and advocacy , the Legal Services Corporation Act was enacted in 1974 by President Richard Nixon . This program flourished and has evolved over the years to become the organization nationally recognized as the Legal Services Corporation . </P> <P> Over the years legal aid has evolved into a comprehensive program that provides legal assistance to low - income people regardless of race , ethnicity or gender . NLADA is the only national membership organization devoted exclusively to ensuring legal representation for individuals who can not afford an attorney . </P> <P> NLADA serves the equal justice community in two major ways : providing products and services and as a national voice in public policy and legislative debates on the many issues affecting the equal justice community . NLADA also serves as a resource for those seeking more information on equal justice in the United States . </P> <P> In recent years , the NLADA has honored individuals and organizations with a variety of awards at its annual conferences . Awards range from the Mary Ellen Hamilton award , which recognizes a client of a legal aid or defender organization , to the Clara Shortridge Foltz Award , which honors organizations that have pioneered important innovations in the field . Notable recipients of NLADA awards include former Attorney General Janet Reno , Bronx Defenders attorney David Feige , and Hillary Clinton . </P> <P> Paul D. Borman was Chief Federal Defender , Legal Aid & Defender Association of Detroit , from 1979 to 1994 . He was the first federal defender to be appointed to the federal bench , in 1994 . </P> <H2> See also ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> Human rights portal </Li> <Li> Law portal </Li> </Ul> <Ul> <Li> Legal aid in the United States </Li> </Ul> <H2> References ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> Jump up ^ `` Legal Aid Societies , '' MSN Encantra , ( 1 ) .

mosquitoes , as the three principals ( De Niro , Walken , and Savage ) were tied up in bamboo cages erected along the River Kwai . The woman who was given the task of casting the extras in Thailand had much difficulty finding a local to play the vicious - looking individual who runs the game . The first actor hired turned out to be incapable of slapping De Niro in the face . The caster then found a local Thai man with a particular dislike of Americans , and cast him accordingly . De Niro suggested that Walken be slapped for real by one of the guards without any warning . The reaction on Walken 's face was genuine . Producer Deeley has said that Cimino shot the brutal Vietcong Russian roulette scenes brilliantly and more efficiently than any other part of the film . </P> <P> De Niro and Savage performed their own stunts in the fall into the river , filming the 30 foot drop 15 times in two days . During the helicopter stunt , the runners caught on the rope bridge as the helicopter rose , it threatened to seriously injure De Niro and Savage . The actors gestured and yelled furiously to the crew in the helicopter to warn them . Footage of this is included in the film . </P> <P> According to Cimino , De Niro requested a live cartridge in the revolver for the scene in which he subjects John Cazale 's character to an impromptu game of Russian roulette , to heighten the intensity of the situation . Cazale agreed without protest , but obsessively rechecked the gun before each take to make sure that the live round was n't next in the chamber . </P> <P> While appearing later in the film , the first scenes shot upon arrival in Thailand were the hospital sequences between Walken and the military doctor . Deeley believed that this scene was `` the spur that would earn him an Academy Award . '' </P> <P> In the final scene in the gambling den between Mike and Nick , Cimino had Walken and De Niro improvise in one take . His direction to his actors : `` You put the gun to your head , Chris , you shoot , you fall over and Bobby cradles your head .

Film editor Peter Zinner was given 600,000 feet of printed film to edit , a monumental task at the time . Producers Spikings and Deeley were pleased with the first cut , which ran for three and a half hours . `` We were thrilled by what we saw , '' wrote Deeley , `` and knew that within the three and a half hours we watched there was a riveting film . '' </P> <P> Executives from Universal , including Lew Wasserman and Sid Sheinberg , were not very enthusiastic . `` I think they were shocked , '' recalled Spikings . `` What really upset them was ' God Bless America ' . Sheinberg thought it was anti-American . He was vehement . He said something like ' You 're poking a stick in the eye of America . ' They really did n't like the movie . And they certainly did n't like it at three hours and two minutes . '' Deeley was n't surprised by the Universal response : `` The Deer Hunter was a United Artists sort of picture , whereas Convoy was more in the style of Universal . I 'd muddled and sold the wrong picture to each studio . '' Deeley did agree with Universal that the film needed to be shorter , not just because of pacing but also to ensure commercial success . `` A picture under two and a half hours can scrape three shows a day , '' wrote Deeley , `` but at three hours you 've lost one third of your screenings and one third of your income for the cinemas , distributors , and profit participants . '' </P> <P> Thom Mount , president of Universal at the time , said , `` This was just a ... continuing nightmare from the day Michael finished the picture to the day we released it . That was simply because he was wedded to everything he shot . The movie was endless . It was The Deer Hunter and the Hunter and the Hunter . The wedding sequence was a cinematic event all unto its own . '' Mount says he turned to Verna Fields , Universal 's then - head of post-production .

The optic chiasm is located at the bottom of the brain immediately below the hypothalamus . The optic chiasm is found in all vertebrates , although in cyclostomes ( lampreys and hagfishes ) it is located within the brain . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Structure </Li> <Li> 2 Other animals </Li> <Li> 3 Additional images </Li> <Li> 4 History </Li> <Li> 5 See also </Li> <Li> 6 References </Li> <Li> 7 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Structure ( edit ) </H2> <P> The optic nerve fibres on the nasal sides of each retina cross over ( decussate ) to the opposite side of the brain via the optic nerve at the optic chiasm ( decussation of medial fibers ) . The temporal hemiretina , on the other hand , stays on the same side . The inferonasal retina are related to anterior portion of the optic chiasm whereas superonasal retinal fibers are related to the posterior portion of the optic chiasm . </P> <P> The crossing over of optic nerve fibres at the optic chiasm allows the visual cortex to receive the same hemispheric visual field from both eyes . Superimposing and processing these monocular visual signals allow the visual cortex to generate binocular and stereoscopic vision . For example , the right visual cortex receives the temporal visual field from the left eye , and the nasal visual field from the right eye , which results in the right visual cortex producing a binocular image of the left hemispheric visual field . The net result of optic nerve crossing over at the optic chiasm is for the right cerebral hemisphere to sense and process left hemispheric vision , and for the left cerebral hemisphere to sense and process right hemispheric vision . </P> <P> This crossing is an adaptive feature of frontally oriented eyes , found mostly in predatory animals requiring precise visual depth perception . ( Prey animals , with laterally positioned eyes , have little binocular vision , so there is a more complete crossover of visual signals . ) Beyond the optic chiasm , with crossed and uncrossed fibers , the optic nerves become optic tracts . The signals are passed on to the lateral geniculate body , in turn giving them to the occipital cortex ( the outer matter of the rear brain ) . </P> <H2> Other animals ( edit ) </H2> <P> In Siamese cats with certain genotypes of the albino gene , this wiring is disrupted , with more of the nerve - crossing than is normal , as a number of scholars have reported . To compensate for lack of crossing in their brains , they cross their eyes ( strabismus ) . </P> <P> This is also seen in albino tigers , as Guillery & Kaas report . </P> <H2> Additional images ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> <P> Scheme showing central connections of the optic nerves and optic tracts . </P> </Li> <Li> <P> Base of brain . </P> </Li> <Li> <P> 3D schematic representation of optic tracts </P> </Li> <Li> <P> Transformations of the visual field toward the visual map on the primary visual cortex . </P> </Li> <Li> <P> Human brainstem anterior view </P> </Li> <Li> <P> Optic chiasm </P> </Li> <Li> <P> Optic chiasma </P> </Li> <Li> <P> Cerebrum.

<P> Of the incident , Ronald Reagan , who was governor of California at the time , said the following words : `` If anything worthwhile comes of this tragedy , it should be the realization by every citizen that often the only thing that stands between them and losing everything they hold dear ... is the man wearing a badge . '' </P> <P> An emotionally charged follow - up investigation followed the incident , but eventually led to a complete revision of procedures during high - risk and felony stops . Firearms procedures have also changed fundamentally due to this incident , and physical methods of arrest have been improved . The police baton and pepper spray have been added to the officer 's arsenal , with more in ‐ depth training in their use . </P> <P> The 25th anniversary of the Newhall Incident was observed on April 6 , 1995 , at the present Newhall Area office , where a brick memorial pays tribute to Officers James Pence ( 6885 ) , Roger Gore ( 6547 ) , Walt Frago ( 6520 ) and George Alleyn ( 6290 ) . The memorial once stood at the former Newhall office , but was rebuilt at the new site , about one mile ( 1.6 km ) from the scene of the slayings . </P> <H2> Mergers ( edit ) </H2> <P> On July 12 , 1995 , the California State Police , which was a separate agency , was merged into the CHP , thus greatly expanding the agency 's mandate . In addition to safety on the state highway system , it is now responsible for the safety of all elected state officials and all people who work in or are utilizing a state building in California , such as the State Capitol Building in Sacramento . </P> <P> It has also been discussed to merge the Law Enforcement Division of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife into the California Highway Patrol . By doing so , this may allow for better protection of California 's environment and natural resources . The underfunded CDFW Law Enforcement Division has faced low numbers of Game Wardens also known as Wildlife Officers for the last ten years ; a similar idea is already in place in Oregon and Alaska , where the Oregon State Police and Alaska State Troopers serve as game wardens under a separate fish and wildlife division within the two departments . </P> <H2> Weapons ( edit ) </H2> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> This section needs additional citations for verification .

As of August 2017 , the department has begun replacing the 4006 TSW with the Smith & Wesson M&P in . 40 S&W . Each CHP patrol vehicle is equipped with a Remington 870 Police Magnum 12 ‐ gauge shotgun and a Sig Sauer M400 rifle in 5.56 mm . Less Lethal options for officers include OC Pepper Spray and the PR - 24 Side Handle Baton . The ASP Expandable Straight Baton is authorized as an optional piece of equipment for officers completing their probationary year .

Motorcycle officers in 1920 Fresno , started a group to assist each other and promote road safety - the Joaquin Valley Traffic Officer 's Association - led by Harry Wilson who they elected as president . They renamed themselves the California Association of Highway Patrolmen in 1921 , and became the California Highway Patrol in 1927 under the auspices of the Department of Motor Vehicles . </P> <H3> Motorcycles ( edit ) </H3> A motorcycle sergeant on the San Tomas Expressway near Benton Avenue in Santa Clara , California . <P> Through the public competitive bidding process , the Harley - Davidson motorcycle was selected as the primary enforcement motorcycle for the California Highway Patrol in 2013 . </P> <P> These replacement enforcement motorcycles will replenish the Department 's aging motorcycle fleet . In a cost - saving move , the CHP previously deferred the purchase of replacement motorcycles and has not purchased enforcement motorcycles since January 14 , 2011 . As a result , approximately 20 percent of the current fleet has logged 100,000 plus miles -- well exceeding the manufacturer 's warranty . </P> <P> CHP 's motorcycle program enhances public safety . Motorcycle officers are able to effectively enforce traffic laws in areas in which enforcement by four - wheel vehicles is impractical . Motorcycles can access scenes of accidents and natural disasters more quickly and work commute traffic in way that is unique to the motorcycle . Additionally , motorcycles play a special role in dignitary protection . </P> <P> The CHP has approximately 415 enforcement motorcycles working the roads throughout California . The CHP purchased 121 of the Harley - Davidson enforcement motorcycles to replace motorcycles that have high mileage or have been damaged in traffic collisions . As of June 2013 , approximately 22 percent of the CHP 's motorcycle fleet is over 100,000 miles with more than half of those over 125,000 miles . On average , a CHP enforcement motorcycle is driven 14,000 miles per year . </P> <P> The Harley - Davidson FLHTP

He takes the stray home to feed it . Once it has rested , Billy sets it free , knowing that it will return home . </P> <P> The experience reminds Billy of his childhood in the Ozark Mountains of Oklahoma . He wants a dog , and his parents offer to get him a mongrel from a neighbor . He wants two coonhounds , but his parents tell him they can not afford them . Billy finds a magazine ad for a Kentucky kennel which breeds Redbone Coonhounds and sells them for $25 each . He goes to work performing odd jobs and saves the $50 he needs with the help of his grandfather . Since it takes two years to do so , his grandfather writes to see if the kennel will honor the ad . They do , and the price has dropped so the two puppies only cost $40 . </P> <P> Billy 's dogs are delivered to the freight depot in Tahlequah . His family does not have transportation , so he finds his own way to get to the depot and walks through the hills . He picks up his puppies , which are a male and a female . He buys a gift for each member of his family with his extra $10 before heading back home . </P> <P> On the way back home , he spends the night in Robber 's Cave in the Sparrow Hawk Mountains . There he builds a fire and plays with the puppies . While trying to sleep , he hears a noise that he realizes is the cry of a mountain lion . In the morning , he continues on . He comes to a sycamore tree and sees the names Dan and Ann carved inside a heart in the bark and decides to name the puppies Old Dan and Little Ann . </P> <P> To train Old Dan and Little Ann , Billy traps a raccoon with the help of his grandfather and uses its pelt to teach them to hunt . During their training , their personalities become apparent : Old Dan is brave and strong , while Little Ann is very intelligent . Both are very loyal to each other and to Billy . </P> <P> On the first night of hunting season , Billy takes Old Dan and Little Ann out for their first hunt . He promises them that if they tree a raccoon , he will do the rest . They tree one in a large sycamore , which Billy had previously nicknamed `` The Big Tree '' . As he tries to call them off , they look at him sadly and he cuts the tree down , which takes him two days and costs him blistered hands . In the end , when he 's about to give up his effort , Billy offers a short prayer for strength to continue . A strong wind starts to blow and the tree falls . Old Dan and Little Ann take the raccoon down . </P> <P> Billy , Old Dan , and Little Ann go hunting almost every night and become well - known in the Ozarks . Billy and his grandfather make a bet with Rubin and Rainie Pritchard that Old Dan and Little Ann can tree the `` ghost coon '' . It leads them on a long , complicated hunt , and Rubin and Rainie want to give up . When they finally have it treed , Billy refuses to kill it . Rubin then orders his dog , Old Blue , to attack Old Dan , who is smaller ; and Rubin starts to beat Billy . Little Ann helps Old Dan , and together they injure Old Blue ; Rubin runs to attack them with an axe , but he trips , falls on it and kills himself . </P> <P> Billy 's grandfather enters him into a championship coon hunt , putting him against experienced hunters and the finest dogs in the country . Before it starts , he enters Little Ann into a conformation contest , where she wins the silver cup . On the fourth night of the hunt , Old Dan and Little Ann tree three raccoons , making it to the final round . The sixth night , they tree one before a blizzard hits .

or above the entrance depict Christ and Mary . They are the work of the greatest Florentine artists of their times , such as Donatello , Lorenzo Ghiberti , Paolo Uccello and Andrea del Castagno . </P> <P> Christ crowning Mary as Queen , the stained - glass circular window above the clock , with a rich range of coloring , was designed by Gaddo Gaddi in the early 14th century . </P> <P> Donatello designed the stained - glass window ( Coronation of the Virgin ) in the drum of the dome ( the only one that can be seen from the nave ) . </P> <P> The beautiful funeral monument of Antonio d'Orso ( 1323 ) , bishop of Florence , was made by Tino da Camaino , the most important funeral sculptor of his time . </P> <P> The monumental crucifix , behind the Bishop 's Chair at the high altar , is by Benedetto da Maiano ( 1495 -- 1497 ) . The choir enclosure is the work of the famous Bartolommeo Bandinelli . The ten - paneled bronze doors of the sacristy were made by Luca della Robbia , who has also two glazed terracotta works inside the sacristy : Angel with Candlestick and Resurrection of Christ . </P> <P> In the back of the middle of the three apses is the altar of Saint Zanobius , first bishop of Florence . Its silver shrine , a masterpiece of Ghiberti , contains the urn with his relics . The central compartment shows us one of his miracles , the reviving of a dead child . Above this shrine is the painting Last Supper by the lesser - known Giovanni Balducci . There was also a glass - paste mosaic panel The Bust of Saint Zanobius by the 16th - century miniaturist Monte di Giovanni , but it is now on display in the Museum Opera del Duomo . </P> <P> Many decorations date from the 16th - century patronage of the Grand Dukes , such as the pavement in colored marble , attributed to Baccio d'Agnolo and Francesco da Sangallo ( 1520 -- 26 ) . Some pieces of marble from the façade were used , topside down , in the flooring ( as was shown by the restoration of the floor after the 1966 flooding ) . </P> <P> It was suggested that the interior of the 45 metre ( 147 ft ) wide dome should be covered with a mosaic decoration to make the most of the available light coming through the circular windows of the drum and through the lantern . Brunelleschi had proposed the vault to glimmer with resplendent gold , but his death in 1446 put an end to this project , and the walls of the dome were whitewashed . Grand Duke Cosimo I de ' Medici decided to have the dome painted with a representation of The Last Judgment . This enormous work , 3,600 metres2 ( 38 750 ft2 ) of painted surface , was started in 1568 by Giorgio Vasari and Federico Zuccari and would last till 1579 . The upper portion , near the lantern , representing The 24 Elders of Apoc. 4 was finished by Vasari before his death in 1574 . Federico Zuccari and a number of collaborators , such as Domenico Cresti , finished the other portions : ( from top to bottom ) Choirs of Angels ; Christ , Mary and Saints ; Virtues , Gifts of the Holy Spirit and Beatitudes ; and at the bottom of the cupola : Capital Sins and Hell . These frescoes are considered Zuccari 's greatest work . But the quality of the work is uneven because of the input of different artists and the different techniques . Vasari had used true fresco , while Zuccari had painted in secco . During the restoration work , which ended in 1995 , the entire pictorial cycle of The Last Judgment was photographed with specially designed equipment and all the information collected in a catalogue . All the restoration information along with reconstructed images of the frescos were stored and managed in the Thesaurus Florentinus computer system . </P> <H2> Crypt ( edit ) </H2> Tomb of Filippo Brunelleschi . <P> The cathedral underwent difficult excavations between 1965 and 1974 . The archaeological history of this huge area was reconstructed through the work of Dr. Franklin Toker : remains of Roman houses , an early Christian pavement , ruins of the former cathedral of Santa Reparata and successive enlargements of this church . Close to the entrance , in the part of the crypt open to the public , is the tomb of Brunelleschi . While its location is prominent , the actual tomb is simple and humble . That the architect was permitted such a prestigious burial place is proof of the high esteem he was given by the Florentines . </P> <H2> Other burials ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> Zenobius of Florence </Li> <Li> Conrad II of Italy </Li> <Li> Giovanni Benelli </Li> <Li> Filippo Brunelleschi </Li> <Li> Giotto di Bondone </Li> <Li> Pope Nicholas II </Li> <Li> Pope Stephen IX </Li> <Li> John Hawkwood </Li> </Ul> <H2> See also ( edit ) </H2> <Ul> <Li> Italy portal </Li> <Li> Catholicism portal </Li> </Ul> <Ul> <Li> Roman Catholic Marian churches </Li> <Li> List of largest domes in the world </Li> <Li> Santa Reparata , Florence </Li> <Li> Inferno ( Dan Brown novel ) </Li> <Li> History of Medieval Arabic and Western European domes </Li> </Ul> <H2> Notes ( edit ) </H2> <Ol> <Li> Jump up ^ Ermengem , Kristiaan Van . `` Duomo di Firenze , Florence '' .

Its range is confined to cold , boreal waters of the Arctic , northern Atlantic , and northern Pacific Oceans . It is common in the English Channel , Irish Sea , North Sea and in western Scandinavian waters south to Kattegat and Øresund . It may also drift in to the south - western part of the Baltic Sea ( where it can not breed due to the low salinity ) . Similar jellyfish -- which may be the same species -- are known to inhabit seas near Australia and New Zealand . The largest recorded specimen found washed up on the shore of Massachusetts Bay in 1870 , had a bell with a diameter of 2.3 metres ( 7 ft 6 in ) and tentacles 37.0 m ( 121.4 ft ) long . Lion 's mane jellyfish have been observed below 42 ° N latitude for some time in the larger bays of the east coast of the United States . </P> <P> The lion 's mane jellyfish uses its stinging tentacles to capture , pull in and eat prey such as fish , sea creatures and smaller jellyfish . </P> <P> </P> <H2> Contents </H2> ( hide ) <Ul> <Li> 1 Taxonomy </Li> <Li> 2 Description </Li> <Li> 3 Ecology </Li> <Li> 4 Behavior and reproduction </Li> <Li> 5 Sting and human contact </Li> <Li> 6 In popular culture </Li> <Li> 7 Gallery </Li> <Li> 8 References <Ul> <Li> 8.1 Other sources </Li> </Ul> </Li> <Li> 9 External links </Li> </Ul> <P> </P> <H2> Taxonomy ( edit ) </H2> Cyanea sp . <P> The taxonomy of the Cyanea species is not fully agreed upon ; some zoologists have suggested that all species within the genus should be treated as one . Two distinct taxa , however , occur together in at least the eastern North Atlantic , with the blue jellyfish ( Cyanea lamarckii Péron & Lesueur , 1810 ) differing in color ( blue , not red ) and smaller size ( 10 -- 20 cm diameter , rarely 35 cm ) . Populations in the western Pacific around Japan are sometimes distinguished as Cyanea nozakii , or as a subspecies , C. c. nozakii . In 2015 , Russian researchers announced a possible sister species , Cyanea tzetlinii found in the White Sea , but this has not yet been recognized by other authoritative databases such as WoRMS or ITIS . </P> <H2> Description ( edit ) </H2> <P> Lion 's mane jellyfish ( Cyanea capillata ) are named for their showy , trailing tentacles reminiscent of a lion 's mane . They can vary greatly in size : although capable of attaining a bell diameter of over 2 metres ( 6 ft 7 in ) , those found in lower latitudes are much smaller than their far northern counterparts , with a bell about 50 centimetres ( 20 in ) in diameter . </P> <P> Size seems to dictate coloration : larger specimens are a vivid crimson to dark purple while smaller specimens grade to a lighter orange or tan , occasionally colorless . </P> <P> The bell of the lion 's mane jellyfish is scalloped into eight lobes ( lappets ) , each lobe containing from 70 to 150 tentacles , arranged in four fairly distinct rows . Along the bell margin is a balance organ at each of the eight indentations between the lobes -- the rhopalium -- which helps the jellyfish orient itself . From the central mouth extend broad frilly oral arms with many stinging cells . Closer to its mouth , its total number of tentacles are around 1200 . </P> <P> The long , thin tentacles which emanate from the bell 's subumbrella have been characterised as `` extremely sticky '' ; they also have stinging cells . The tentacles of larger specimens may trail as long as 30 m ( 100 ft ) or more , with the tentacles of the longest known specimen measured at 37 m ( 120 ft ) in length . This unusual length -- longer than a blue whale -- has earned it the status of one of the longest known animals in the world . </P> <H2> Ecology ( edit ) </H2> <P> As coldwater species , these jellyfish can not cope with warmer waters . The jellyfish are pelagic for most of their lives but tend to settle in shallow , sheltered bays towards the end of their one - year lifespan . In the open ocean , lion 's mane jellyfish act as floating oases for certain species , such as shrimp , medusafish , butterfish , harvestfish , and juvenile prowfish , providing both a reliable source of food and protection from predators . </P> <P> Predators of the lion 's mane jellyfish include seabirds , larger fish such as ocean sunfish , other jellyfish species , and sea turtles . The leatherback sea turtle feeds almost exclusively on them in large quantities during the summer season around Eastern Canada . The jellyfish themselves feed mostly on zooplankton , small fish , ctenophores , and moon jellies . </P> <H2> Behavior and reproduction ( edit ) </H2> Main article : Jellyfish § Life

Carlos Santana was joined by Beyoncé and Michelle Branch and sang truncated versions of `` Oye Como Va '' , `` The Game of Love '' , and `` Foo Foo . '' ABC also aired a pre-game parking lot performance featuring Bonnie Raitt , Goo Goo Dolls and Michael Bublé prior to the Santana and Friends segment . </P> <P> In a nod to what the New England Patriots did the previous year in Super Bowl XXXVI , both teams were introduced as a team , rather than offensive and defensive starters , after highlights of their seasons were simulcast on the video boards in the stadium and on television . This has become a regular tradition starting with this Super Bowl . </P> <P> Celine Dion then sang `` God Bless America '' which is sung for the only time in the Super Bowl , and later the Dixie Chicks sang the national anthem , `` The Star - Spangled Banner '' . F / A-18 Super Hornets of the United States Navy performed a flyover . </P> <P> To honor the 30th anniversary of the 17 -- 0 undefeated , perfect season of the 1972 Miami Dolphins , the following members of that team appeared during the coin toss ceremony : Don Shula , Bob Griese , Larry Csonka , Larry Little , Jim Langer , Nick Buoniconti , Paul Warfield . </P> <P> Memorable television commercials that aired during the game included the `` Terry Tate : Office Linebacker '' Reebok ad and the Budweiser Zebra Referee . ADBOWL ranked FedEx 's `` Castaway '' as the best commercial of the year . </P> <H3> Halftime show ( edit ) </H3> <P> Shania Twain , No Doubt , and Sting were featured during the halftime show , which was sponsored by AT&T Wireless .

However , six plays later , Tampa Bay defensive end Simeon Rice sacked Raiders quarterback Rich Gannon on third down , forcing Oakland to settle for kicker Sebastian Janikowski 's 40 - yard field goal to give them a 3 -- 0 lead . </P> <P> Buccaneers kick returner Aaron Stecker returned the ensuing kickoff 27 yards to the 29 - yard line , then appeared to fumble the ball . Although the officials initially ruled that the ball was recovered by Oakland 's Eric Johnson , the play was reviewed by instant replay and the fumble was overturned , and thus Tampa Bay retained possession . It showed that both of Stecker 's knees were down and the ball did n't come loose until it hit the ground . Gruden and Stecker appeared upset at having to use a challenge so early in a game , when they both believed Stecker was clearly down . </P> <P> On the first play of the drive , Brad Johnson completed an 11 - yard pass to wide receiver Joe Jurevicius . Johnson 's next 2 passes were incomplete , but he then completed a 23 - yard pass to Jurevicius on third down to advance the ball to the Oakland 37 - yard line . Running back Michael Pittman then rushed for a 23 - yard gain to the 13 - yard line . However , on the next 3 plays , the Raiders defense limited the Buccaneers to a pair of incompletions and a 1 - yard run . Argentine kicker Martín Gramática then made a 31 - yard field goal to tie the game , 3 -- 3 . </P> <H3> Second quarter ( edit ) </H3> <P> Later in the half , a 17 - yard punt return by Raiders defensive back Darrien Gordon gave Oakland the ball at their own 49 - yard line . Gannon then threw an 8 - yard pass to running back Charlie Garner to reach the Tampa Bay 43 - yard line . However , on third down , Buccaneers safety Dexter Jackson intercepted Gannon 's pass at the 40 - yard line and returned it 9 - yards to near midfield . Then nine plays after the turnover , Gramatica kicked his second field goal from 43 yards to give Tampa Bay a 6 -- 3 lead . </P> <P> Jackson intercepted another pass on the Raiders ' next drive and returned it 25 yards to Oakland 's 45 - yard line , making Jackson the first player ever to record two interceptions in the first half of the Super Bowl . However , the Buccaneers were unable to take advantage of the turnover and were forced to punt . Fortunately for Tampa Bay , they got a big assist from their punter Tom Tupa , who managed to pin Oakland all the way back at their own

conducted a preliminary inspection of the Salton Sea in January 1940 , and the Salton Sea Test Base ( SSTB , run by Sandia Labs ) was initially commissioned as the Naval Auxiliary Air Station , Salton Sea , in October 1942 . The SSTB , just to the south - east of Salton City , originally functioned as an operational and training base for seaplanes . Additional activities at the base have included experimental testing of solidfuel plane - launched rockets , jet - assist take - off testing , aeroballistic testing of inert atomic weapon test units at land and marine target areas , training bombing at marine targets , testing of the effects of long - term storage on atomic weapons , testing of the parachute landing systems of the Project Mercury space capsules , parachute training and testing , and military training exercises . The base was abandoned in 1978 . </P> <P> The continuing intermittent flooding of the Imperial Valley from the Colorado River led to the idea of the need for a dam on the Colorado River for flood control . </P> <H3> Subsequent evolution ( edit ) </H3> A gaseous mud volcano <P> The Salton Sea had some success as a resort area , with Salton City , Salton Sea Beach , and Desert Shores , on the western shore and Desert Beach , North Shore , and Bombay Beach , built on the eastern shore in the 1950s . However , many of the settlements substantially shrank in size , or have been abandoned , mostly due to the increasing salinity and pollution of the lake over the years from agricultural runoff and other sources . Many of the species of fish that lived in the sea have been killed off by the combination of pollutants , salt levels , and algal blooms . Dead fish have been known to wash up in mass quantities on the beaches . The smell of the lake , combined with the stench of the decaying fish , also contributed to the decline of the tourist industry around the Salton Sea . Many people now visit the Salton Sea and the surrounding settlements to explore the abandoned structures . The town of Niland is 1.5 miles ( 3 km ) southeast of the sea , with a population of 1,006 . Evidence of geothermal activity is also visible . Mudpots and mud volcanoes are found on the eastern side of the Salton Sea . A number of geothermal electricity generation plants are located along the southeastern shore of the Salton Sea in Imperial County . </P> <P> The US Geological Survey describes the smell as `` objectionable '' , `` noxious '' , `` unique '' , and `` pervasive '' . </P> <H2> Ecology ( edit ) </H2> See also : Sonny Bono Salton Sea National Wildlife Refuge § Wildlife <H3> Fish population ( edit ) </H3> <P> Due to the high salinity , very few fish species can tolerate living in the Salton Sea . Introduced tilapia are the main fish that can tolerate the high salinity levels and pollution . Other freshwater fish species live in the rivers and canals that feed the Salton Sea , including threadfin shad , carp , red shiner , channel catfish , white catfish , largemouth bass , mosquitofish , sailfin molly , and the vulnerable desert pupfish . </P> <H3> Avian population ( edit ) </H3> <P> The Salton Sea has been termed a `` crown jewel of avian biodiversity '' by Dr. Milt Friend of the Salton Sea Science Office . Over 400 species have been documented at the Salton Sea . The most diverse and probably the most significant populations of bird life in the continental United States are hosted , rivaled only by Big Bend National Park in Texas . It supports 30 % of the remaining population of the American white pelican . The Salton Sea is also a major resting stop on the Pacific Flyway . On 18 November 2006 , a Ross 's gull , a high Arctic bird , was sighted and photographed there . </P> <H2> Increasing salinity ( edit ) </H2> Dead fish on the western shore of Salton City <P> The lack of an outflow means the Salton Sea does not have a natural stabilization system ; it is very dynamic . Fluctuations in the water level caused by variations in agricultural runoff , the ancient salt deposits in the lake bed , and the relatively high salinity of the inflow feeding the sea are all causing ever - increasing salinity . The body was initially a freshwater lake , but by the 1960s its rising salinity had begun to jeopardize some of the species in it . With a salinity now exceeding 5.0 % w / v ( saltier than seawater ) , most species of fish can no longer survive there . A freshwater fish notable for its ability to withstand the rising salinity of the Salton Sea , the desert pupfish , can survive salinities ranging from 0.0 % to 7.0 % . Fertilizer runoffs have resulted in eutrophication , with large algal blooms and elevated bacterial levels . </P> <P> By 2014 , large swaths of lake bed were exposed and salt levels drastically increased due to mandated water transfers to metropolitan areas along the coast and other factors , limiting the water inflow . Besides the resulting fish kills , the shrinking lake interrupts the bird migration , causes dust clouds , and impacts local tourism negatively . </P> <H3> Remediation efforts ( edit ) </H3> Past efforts and proposals for a Sea level canal ( edit ) Map of New River and Alamo River courses <P> Alternatives for `` saving '' the Salton Sea have been evaluated since 1955 . </P> The New River passes from Mexicali , Baja California , to the Imperial Valley , and on to the Salton Sea . <P> Much of the current interest in the sea was sparked in the 1990s by Congressman Sonny Bono .

He quickly establishes himself as a more unconventional , ruthless litigator than his predecessor , Ben Stone ( Michael Moriarty ) . He often bends -- and sometimes breaks -- trial rules to get convictions , finds tenuous rationales for charging defendants with crimes when the original charges fail to stick , and charges innocent people to frighten them into testifying against others . McCoy is found in contempt of court 80 times for such behavior , and his tactics occasionally incur negative publicity for the DA 's office . His underlying motivation , however , is not , he maintains , corruption , but a sincere desire to see justice done . To that end , McCoy has gone after defendants accused of perverting the justice system to arrange wrongful convictions with just as much determination as his more mundane cases . Such aggressive actions in the courts have earned him the nickname `` Hang ' em High McCoy '' . He has subsequently developed a reputation with both colleagues and rival attorneys , once being referred to as `` the top of the legal food chain '' by a rival attorney during a trial . </P> <P> Following the 17th season ( 2006 -- 2007 ) , Jack McCoy was appointed interim district attorney , taking over from Arthur Branch ( Fred Thompson ) . McCoy 's appearance on Law & Order : Special Victims Unit on the November 13 , 2007 , episode `` Blinded '' , marked his first appearance in the Law & Order universe as district attorney . The replacement for his former position is Michael Cutter ( Linus Roache ) , a prosecutor with a penchant for recklessness not unlike McCoy 's own in his younger days . This occasionally presents political difficulties for the new district attorney . More than once , McCoy berates Cutter for reckless conduct , in the same manner as he was berated by district attorneys when he was executive assistant district attorney . </P> <P> In the season - 19 episode `` Lucky Stiff '' , McCoy begins his election campaign for New York County District Attorney after serving the last season and a half as interim DA . In the season - 19 episode `` Promote This '' , in 1991 his wife Ellen ( whom he was divorcing ) is revealed to have unknowingly employed an undocumented immigrant as a nanny . This causes McCoy political havoc during a murder case where the motive was racism against illegal immigrants of Hispanic descent . In the episode `` Skate or Die ''
