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 ,

This was the first and only time that one of Rawls ' records managed to reach Billboard 's pop top ten . It was the first big hit for Philadelphia International to feature the reformulated MFSB , after many of the original members left Gamble and Huff for better opportunities .

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

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 .

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 .

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 .

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

'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 .

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 .

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 ) .

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 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>

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>

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 .

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 .

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 .

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 .

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 .

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

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 .

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

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 .

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 .

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

( 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

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 .

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

In late 19th - century America , men made out of various tin pieces were used in advertising and political cartoons .

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

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

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

'' ( 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 ,

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>

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>

a situation features a discrepancy between what is expected and what is actualized ; dramatic irony , where a character is unaware of pivotal information already revealed to the audience ( the discrepancy here lies in the two levels of awareness between the character and the audience ) ; and verbal irony , where one states one thing while meaning another .

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

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

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 .

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 .

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 .

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 .
