It took me 5 fucking years to find that adult swim song

I feel like I've traveled into the past.

...I miss the days when Adult Swim was good.

>>33379360
Glad I could help and make you remember, bros.

What the fuck is this thread? Intended to be a discussion about old school adult swim and then immediately turned into a dump for some shitty, old pictures that no one cares about or asked for?

Dang, why does youtube have to go down now?!

Adult Swim sucks except for Death Note & King of The Hill. Theres your discussion.

>Death Note & King of The Hill.

You have horrible taste in everything and are 15 years old.

>>33380179
Oh hi underage troll. How's summer?

>>33380179
King of the Hill is definitely the best thing on right now.
Death Note is meh, it's nothing spectacular.
I like the PJs
I like Bleach, but moreso for the Manga
Code Geass I like.
Cowbowy Bebop, GITS, and Big O are good.
ATHF, Venture Brothers, and when the new season premieres, Boondocks are all great. American Dad is actually alright, better than Family Guy is now, certainly. Robot Chicken is fine.

That's enough for now.

>>33380720
What kills Death Note for me was the second season, felt lackluster. Bleach I enjoy, I don't feel obligated to explain further. Part of the charm with Code Geass with me is it's absolute lack of subtlety, and how over the top it is. While it has good, serious moments, a good amount of the enjoyment comes from how hilarious some of it is. As with Death Note though, the first season is better than the second. R2 was a bit of a clusterfuck, and everything basically devolved into FABULOUS GUNDAMS and PSEUDO TACTICS.

>>33380558
Can't agree with the PJs, but everything else is spot on.

Home movies is also pretty good. I really miss Space Ghost Coast to Coast and The Brak Show.

>>33380633

1. Shitty quasi-psychological wankery for rebellious 12 year olds.
2. Limp-wristed character based humor about some stupid Southern fuck and his fat little kid and his shitty, boring life.

Just embarassing shit.

Anyone who seriously likes Code Geass needs to rip out their eyes since they are not using them correctly.

I miss 12.oz Mouse.

Holy shit, Tite Kubo can't write to save his life. The entire Arrancar arc is a fucking joke. I've seen better character development in fucking hentai games.

I was there from day one, watching Cowboy Bebop as it rounded out the last hour of their programming.

Some of the episodes were pulled from circulation after September 11th, which happened just 2 days after Adult Swim's premiere.

I learned of Adult Swim from a DragonBall Z website, who were foaming at the mouth of the possibility of seeing uncensored episodes.

To be 12 again...

>>33381306
It was better when Jeremiah said it, episode 25 I want to say, when he rose over the mountain with Siegfried and attacked Zero.

>>33380987
King of the Hill is satire first off, and second it's fucking great.

>>33381201
I never really got into that one. Also, Metalocalypse; I'm not fond of metal, nor do I watch the show very often, but it does have it's moments. And Frisky Dingo, that show was great.

>>33381464
If you're reading Bleach for the writing, you're doing it wrong. It's known for it's fights first off, and I like the character design as well. Pic VERY related.

>>33381494

Cowboy Bebop
Tenchi Muyo
Outlaw Star
Yu Yu Hakusho
Some giant robo chick show which lasted 6 episodes.

And that robot announcer.

>If you're reading Bleach for the writing, you're doing it wrong. It's known for it's fights first off, and I like the character design as well. Pic VERY related.

Not gonna lie, the character design is great. But the fights are just abysmal. It just boils down to "WELL, LOL, I COULDA KILL'D YA IN THE BEGINNING BUT I WAS TOO ARROGANT"

Every single character is arrogant. It's retarded. It's like watching Dragonball z and it's just Vegeta fighting Vegeta, over and over again.

>>33381575
>Some giant robo chick show which lasted 6 episodes.
That was Pilot Candidate......and it was shit. The other shows, especially Yu-Yu Hakusho, were great.

That honestly entertains me. Vegeta was one of my favorite characters in DBZ.

>>33381575

That was Adult Swim Action you're talking about, which premiered in February the following year.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=li4QtZIIXrU

And the show you mentioned was Pilot Candidate.

That show had horrendous un-synced dubbing.

Too bad Xtacles didnt get off the ground.

Good thing Delocated is getting a second season.

And Mighty Boosh isn't so bad.

>>33381306

>>33381575
Oh god I loved Outlaw star, it's what got me hooked to the Zone of the Enders series. Good times, good times.

>Delocated

It's nice to see that Adult Swim is picking up stuff from PFFR. I wonder how long it would take them to get Wondershowzen.

Or even if they can. That show may be too disturbing for Adult Swim.

>>33378604

I don't understand why my friends hated it, I LOVED Mission Hill, that show was great.

>>33381908
I liked Mission Hill.

;_;

2006-2006

>>33381710
I liked Vegeta too..up until the Android saga.

Bleach had potential to be amazing, but it's fallen so far thanks to shitty writing, character design, and fuck tons of retconning. Don't even get me started on the retarded retconning. For those of you who don't read Bleach, here's some examples:

"Here in the Soul Society, we don't need to eat"
"My friend (a soul) died of starvation"

"Ha, no matter what you do, your sword can't cut me because my spiritual pressure(ki) is higher than yours"
"(EVERY OTHER FIGHT EVER)"

>>33381908
Mission Hill was the shit!

>>33381955
FUCK WHATEVER HAPPENED TO KORGOTH? I HAD HIGH HOPES FOR THIS.

Delocated is garbage.

Also, One Piece > Bleach

>>33381948
>>33381984

Mission Hill had the best opener.

>>33382070

That better either involve Gus or the Penis Penis Penis guy

hell yeah you guys remember Blue Gender?

>>33381972
You just basically described every Animu.

>>33382070
I think that was the one, I totally forgot, but the worst day ever episode was definitely the best one to me.

>>33381972
Things did fall apart, yeah, but at this point I just say fuck it, and keep going. Also, the former isn't really a retcon, as much as it is just general inconsistence, but yeah, the Arrancar and captains are what keep me in. Ichigo isn't a bad character, but he gets his ass kicked constantly, and doesn't really stand out as far as his abilities are concerned.

>>33382072
One Piece is alright. I want to read the Manga, but I kind of hopped around with One Piece, and it's been running for a pretty long time, and I don't feel like jumping into it. I feel the same about Jojo's, which goes on FOREVER.

>>33382112

>Penis Penis Penis guy

yep

OH MY GOD

I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR THE MANDEER TRACK FOR AGES (The India-ish song with the UNNNNHHHHH)

FUCKING THANK YOU OP

>>33382131
I remember Blue Gender

Do you guys remember Outlaw Star?

>>33382072
>delocated is garbage

You just have horrible taste

Best shows to ever grace Adult swim:

~SeaLab
~Futurama
~SpaceGhost
~SuperJail
~The Boondocks
~ATHF

~Outlaw star
~Tenchi Muyo (not sure if that was ever on but I effing loved it)
~Pilot Candidate
~Wolf's rain
~Trigun
~Big O
~Samurai Champloo
~paranoi Agent
~Cowboy Bebop

When the fuck are they cancelling fucking Tim and Eric and killing them? I fucking hate them, and their shitty "humor", yet these two fucktards keep getting new shows.

Also, Frisky Dingo, Sealab, Venture Bros, and Boondocks are great. Other stuff varies from shit (12oz Mouse, anything Tim and Eric) to good (Space Ghost, KotH).

>>33382252

I remember Outlaw Star

Do you guys remember Zoids: Chaotic Century?

Birdman is my all-time favorite AS show. Frisky Dingo is my new favorite.

>>33381972

>"Ha, no matter what you do, your sword can't cut me because my spiritual pressure(ki) is higher than yours"

>"(EVERY OTHER FIGHT EVER)"

That was more of a "My Ki is TOO MUCH higher than yours", actually. The same thing happened when Ichigo tried to attack Aizen. All of his other opponents were closer to his own powerlevel. Fuck, he hasn't even fought anyone as tough as Kenpachi yet.

>>33382202
I read Bleach, Naruto and One Piece every week because it only takes about 5 minutes. Bleach and Naruto both peaked early on (Naruto was great until the Zabuza fight ended), but One Piece has been consistently awesome throughout (well, Skypeia was only okay). The Water 7 Arc of One Piece is probably my favorite story arc from anything ever. It's that good.

If you have a lazy sunday and don't know what else to do, catch up on One Piece. You won't regret it.

>>33382322
Loved Trigun, and Paranoia Agent was nice, but you have to watch every episode. I missed a few, and tried to get back into it and failed.

>>33382351
>Zoids
FUCK YES

>>33382322

I don't see the Venture Bros

also, is The Boondocks ever coming back?

>>33382351

They showed that show around 6am didn't they?

Also is that the one with the Mecha Godzilla or the one with the tournament?

>>33382391
just fuck off already nerballs

>>33382433

they talk about the Boondocks in bumps. last i heard the scripts were in for the new season and production was starting.

>>33382433

3rd season confirmed for Q4 I think or early 2010.

>>33382156

Oda is a God.

>>33382202

Seriously, go read it. It starts off a tad slow but when the Arlong Park arc starts everything just kicks into high gear and becomes a fantastic read. Everything about it is just perfect. And I can understand that a long running series can be intimidating to get into if you're just starting it out(which is a reason I haven't started Hajime no Ippo) but it really is worth it.

>>33382252
Fuck yes, Blue Gender.

And yes I remember Outlaw Star.

>>33382245
Glad I could help, bro.

>>33382322

As over-rated as they are, you forgot FLCL, GitS, and NGE.

>>33382440
Tournament was the best one. Bit Cloud was the fucking man.

>>33382519

>oda
>god

I wouldn't go nearly that far. He's still good, though.

>>33382433
New Boondocks Season early next year.

>>33382387
I read Naruto, and the biggest problem with it is that (fuck I forgot his name) creates so many side characters that are SO MUCH FUCKING BETTER THAN THE MAIN CAST, but they get killed off or just lose focus eventually. I have read it recently, and the chapter where Pain/Nagato basically hit the reset button and brought everyone in Konoha back to life. was just too fucking much for me. I will try to catch up on One Piece though, I liked the Baroque Works a lot.

>>33382521
FLCL is great

>>33382561
>>33382440
Chaotic Century is the first series, and the one with WAR and Death Saurers and Vaan and Organoids and whatnot. New Century Zero is the Tournament.

So where the fuck is my Fist of The North Star & Guyver, [AS]? You air shit like Geass & Bleach, you don't even bother airing 2 of the best anime to grace this planet.

I don't even give a shit if you LOL IRONICALLY censor both of them (Look at Boondocks for their faggotry - BLEEPBLEEPBLEEPNIGGERBLEEPNIGGA & mosaics over privates etc.), you need them.

>>33382621
i said fuck off nerballs

>>33382322
>>33382391
Fuck year, Outlaw Star and Trigun.
I remember trying to watch Pilot Candidate, but all I can recall is, "The girls are wearing long pants while the boys are wearing short shorts. This is unacceptable."

>>33382351
I remember Zoids: Chaotic Century

Do you guys remember Toonami Midnight Run?

>>33382322
superjail is for a very niche group. It was special, but not entirely in a good way.

>>33382387

I never understood the hate for the Skypiea arc(it's one of my favorites), but yeah, Water 7 arc is the best so far. I never knew I could cry for a ship.

The bump at 3:22, what is it? What song is playing?

>>33382519
The best thing about Oda is he is the most stereotypical Japanese guy of all time. He has almost no emotions. i think a little girl sent him a letter and it was something like:

"Konnichiwa Oda-san! I love One Piece! I hate Blackbeard for what he did to Ace-san! He smells like doodoo!"

And Oda replied:
"Doodoo? I am not sure. Perhaps we should talk about other matters. Now, if you'll excuse me, I must get back to my work. Thank you for your time"

Daft Punk & Gorillaz and Moby once didn't they?

>>33382745
FUCK YEAH KILLERBEE

>>33382712

He does that on purpose, he's just teasing the kids.

Also, he has a smoking hot wife.

>>33382820

That one night on Toonami was the first time I heard Daft Punk.

>>33382745
Fuck year, it's DR Raven. Hell, Raven even has an attack called Killer Bee.

>>33382627
Well Boondocks is one of their highest rated shows, and the guys at AS, no, CN in general are idiotic programmers. Remember Toonami?

>>33382793
It was only a matter of time. Crocodile is too dangerous to just be kept alive like that.

>>33382712
For a guy who has no emotions, his comic sure is more passionate than most mangakas who rely on SHOCK DEATH and SELF RIGHTEOUS FAGGOT WITH SAD PAST 98% of the time.

>>33382894

>Sad past

Oda does this more than anyone else, don't start.

>>33382706
Skypeia was just kind of boring to me. It's like they didn't really accomplish anything at all but wasted time. Oh, Usopp became slightly more useful. Big deal

Also, you liked Water 7 for the ship? I couldn't give to dicks about the Going Merry. I liked it because of the awesome fights and how they all got new techniques.
>>33382621
>I read Naruto, and the biggest problem with it is that (fuck I forgot his name) creates so many side characters that are SO MUCH FUCKING BETTER THAN THE MAIN CAST,

Agreed. Shino should have been the main fucking character. I only read Naruto so I can make fun of my friend who still thinks it's good. Although now that they might kill off Sasuke there is a very slim chance it can redeem itself. I feel like Masashi Clichemoto wrote all of Naruto up until Itachi died and now has no idea what to do.

>>33382918
ARE YOU DEAF, I SAID SHUT THE FUCK UP NERBALLS

>>33382712

He's just trolling his fans, even though he really loves them.

Not as much as he loves his wife though. Unf unf unf unf

>>33382971
>Sasuke getting killed off
Shiiiiiiiiit. However, I do like Danzo for giving the kill on sight order, and Shino is a great character, love the insects. Kiba is a favorite of mine, especially in the games.

>>33382959
Sure, except the characters aren't fags about it and don't bring it up every chapter.

>>33382918
no one dies in one piece tho. there have been like 2 charecters to die during the entire show

>>33382918

You didn't know, Nergal?

He, Buggy, Mr. 2, Mr.1, Mr.3 and Jinbei teamed up with Luffy to escape Impel Down.

>>33382712

The omake pages Oda does at the end of each volume are hilarious. He never takes anyone seriously and always gives some bullshit answer. Someone asked how far Luffy can stretch and he just gave some fake unit of length called a gummy or something. Just one of the many reasons I love Oda.

>>33382959
You missed the "Self Righteous faggot" part. Sure, everyone in One Piece had horrible lives (except for Luffy's kickass family), but they don't sit around moping about it or think they deserve special treatment.
>>33382793
This arc has fucking everything. It even had Zoro for a panel.

THIS IS HIS WIFE?

GODDAMN

>>33382971

Skypiea was exposition.

LOTS of shit got built up here.

>>33383081
No. Like I said, I don't read One Piece much, everything I know is from the anime. It's also hilarious how much 4kids butchered it, but that's opening up another can of worms entirely.

>>33383054
...and? They don't have to die. It's not like the story calls for it. Now Bleach and Naruto? They need to start killing off some of those chucklefucks.

Also, I love how the best OP thread in weeks is on /v/.

The goal envisaged by France and Great Britain in prosecuting in the East the War let loose by German ambition is the complete and final liberation of the peoples who have for so long been oppressed by the Turks, and the setting up of national governments and administrations deriving their authority from the free exercise of the initiative and choice of the indigenous populations.

In pursuit of those intentions, France and Great Britain agree to further and assist in the establishment of indigenous Governments and administrations in Syria and Mesopotamia which have already been liberated by the Allies, as well as in those territories which they are engaged in securing and recognising these as soon as they are actually established.

Far from wishing to impose on the populations of those regions any particular institutions they are only concerned to ensure by their support and by adequate assistance the regular working of Governments and administrations freely chosen by the populations themselves; to secure impartial and equal justice for all; to facilitate the economic development of the country by promoting and encouraging local initiative; to foster the spread of education; and to put an end to the dissensions which Turkish policy has for so long exploited. Such is the task which the two Allied Powers wish to undertake in the liberated territories.

The fourth of five children of evangelist Billy Graham and wife Ruth Bell Graham, Franklin Graham was born and raised in the Appalachian Mountains near Asheville, North Carolina.

As a teenager, Graham attended Stony Brook School, a Christian boarding school on Long Island, New York and finished high school in North Carolina. In 1972, he attended LeTourneau College in Longview, Texas, and was expelled from the school for keeping a female classmate out past curfew. He graduated from Montreat-Anderson College (now Montreat College) with an A.S. and Appalachian State University with a B.A.

In 1974, 22-year-old Graham became a Christian in a hotel room while on a trip to Jerusalem. He married Jane Austin Cunningham later that year. They have four children: William Franklin Graham IV (Will), born in 1975, Roy Austin Graham (1977), Edward Bell Graham (1979) and Jane Austin Graham Lynch (Cissie) (1986). Lynch is now married to the NFL's Corey Lynch, Safety for the Cincinnati Bengals. Graham and his wife have five grandchildren.

Dixon was born on May 22, 1865 in Northallerton, Yorkshire, England. He studied at the University of London and graduated with an MA. He entered Trinity College, Cambridge in 1883 and graduated as Senior Wrangler in the Mathematical Tripos in 1886.[1] In 1888, Dixon was awarded the second Smith's prize, and also appointed a Fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge. He took the degree of Sc.D. at Cambridge University in 1897. He was Professor of Mathematics at Queen's College, Galway from 1893 to 1901. In 1901 he was appointed to the chair at Queen's University Belfast, which he held till 1930, receiving the title of Emeritus Professor on retirement.

Dixon was elected to the Royal Society in 1904 and after he retired from Queen's University Belfast, he served as president of the London Mathematical Society from 1931 until 1933. Queen's University Belfast conferred on him the honorary degree of D.Sc. in 1932.

Stop. Now.

The anime is horrible.

Mohr’s Barbara Button suffers primarily from habitat loss due to residential development, road maintenance and enlargement, trash disposal, and to a small extent, agricultural development. Because the environments in which Mohr’s Barbara Button exists are typically alkaline, sandy soils, crop production is not typically favorable in these environments.

Although direct human destruction of habitat can be blamed for population declines, too much human influence in protecting it can be problematic as well. Fire suppression in the pine and oak forests of the southeast United States has also taken its toll on the Mohr’s Barbara Button. Although the species requires mature pine and oak forests to survive, without occasional fires, the glades and openings required by the species become overgrown with forest vegetation. Therefore the trees and habitat needed by the Mohr’s Barbara Button, and protected through fire suppression can become a major problem as well for the species. (Matthews, 1994)

In logic and mathematics, a finitary operation ω is a function of the form ω : X1 × … × Xk → Y. The sets Xj are the called the domains of the operation, the set Y is called the codomain of the operation, and the fixed non-negative integer k is called the arity of the operation. An operation of arity zero, called a nullary operation, is simply an element of the codomain Y.

An operation of arity k is called a k-ary operation. Thus a k-ary operation is a (k+1)-ary relation that is functional on its first k domains. Elements of the functional domains are called arguments. Elements of the codomain are called values.

An operation is often called an operator, though other users of the term may reserve it for more specialized uses. At any rate, the arguments are also called operands or inputs, and the values are also called results or outputs.

With settlement on the west side of the river, 32 children needed to cross the river to attend the Stone School on the east side where there were 67 students in total. To cross the river, there was only the wooden rail bridge without walkway or by ferry. Another school - Pioneer School- was envisioned in 1900 at Third Avenue around 19th Street. [6] [7]

This area became a village of 100 citizens on November 16, 1901 named Saskatoon, and July 1, 1903 became a town. 1912, City Hall had official headquarters in the old King Edward School; 23rd St and 3rd Avenue. 1928 saw Eaton's opening in the building on 21 Street and Third Avenue, which later housed the Army and Navy Department Store and now the Saskatoon Board of Education offices. The armouries of the 29th Saskatchewan Light Horse Regimental Headquarters and 105th Fusiliers Division were constructed in south downtown in 1922. The Saskatoon Arena was constructed in 1937 on 19th Street and torn down in 1989.

So what's up with this wiki spammer? Some guy that hates One Piece?

Jones was born in Kingswinford, near Dudley, United Kingdom in 1964. He had followed From Eden, an earlier band featuring fellow future Wonder Stuff members Miles Hunt and Malcolm Treece. Following the split of From Eden he left the Midlands for London in 1984 to play in a number of unsuccessful thrash/death metal bands and even roadie for a support band on one of The Pogues' tours. Hearing that Jones had returned to the Midlands in March 1986, Miles contacted him with a view to becoming the group's new bassist. The first time they played together, along with drummer Martin Gilks in March 1986, they sat in the kitchen and wrote "A Wonderful Day" and "Red Berry Joy Town" which, respectively, became the first Wonder Stuff single and the first track on the debut album.

Jones played on the debut album The Eight Legged Groove Machine and the follow-up Hup. Following disagreements within the group, The Bass Thing left in December 1989, heading straight for America as soon as the group had played the final night of a sellout 3 night residence at Birmingham's Aston Villa Leisure Centre.

The Australian Shelduck, Tadorna tadornoides, is a shelduck, a group of large goose-like birds which are part of the bird family Anatidae, which also includes the swans, geese and ducks. The Anatidae article should be referred to for an overview of this group of birds.

This is a bird which breeds in southern Australia and Tasmania. In the southern winter, many birds move further north than the breeding range. As with other shelducks, this species has favoured moulting grounds, such as Lake George, NSW, where sizable concentrations occur.

This species is mainly associated with lakes in fairly open country, breeding in tree holes, holes in banks or similar.

Oda says he changed his style for drawing women because people said he sucked at it. He's always been warry of it.

If you look at more recent drawings, Nami is more of a D and has AN ACTUAL WAIST, HOLY SHIT. It's amazing, I thought she would snap for an arc or two.

Halloy was one of the pioneers of modern geology, and in particular laid the foundation of geological knowledge over wide areas. He made important studies in the Carboniferous districts of Belgium and the Rhine provinces and in the Tertiary deposits of the Paris basin. He was a practical Catholic during his long and active life, and was characterized by his loyalty and devotion to the Church. He insisted on the harmony between faith and science, making this the subject of his oration on the occasion of the golden jubilee of the Belgian Academy in 1866. Among his published works are: Description géologique des Pays-Bas (1828); Eléments de Géologie (1831); Introduction à la Géologie (1833); Coup d'oeil sur la géologie de la Belgique (1842); Precis elementaire de Géologie (1843); Abrégé de Géologie (1853); Des Races humaines ou Eléments d' Ethnographie (1845). In this last book, Halloy established a racial classification according to skin colour. He was an active member of the Belgian Academy of Sciences from 1816, and served three times as president. He was likewise president of the Geological Society of France in 1852. He studied also in detail the Tertiary deposits of the Paris Basin, and ascertained the extent of the Cretaceous and some of the older strata, which he for the first time clearly depicted on a map (1817). He was distinguished as an ethnologist, and when nearly ninety years of age he was chosen president of the Congress of Pre-historic Archaeology (Brussels, 1872).

Almudevar moved to Brussels, Belgium, following her graduation, where she worked for the European Union.[1] She was subsequently awarded the Heinz-Schwarzkopf Foundation's Young European of the Year prize in 1999 for her work in promoting untiy among diverse young people through her journalism.[1]

She was first hired by the BBC in 2002.[1] She initially worked for BBC Midlands. Almudevar also worked on radio and television programs while working at BBC Midlands, including Midlands Today and Inside Out.[1] She also created "docu-dramas" for the network before becoming an overseas reporter and correspondent for the BBC.[1]

According to BBC News, Almudevar won an award for her work on Alexandra Road, a ten part series that followed the lives of residents of a street in Wolverhampton, United Kingdom, which she co-produced with fellow BBC journalist, Brady Haran.[1]

She took a sabbatical leave from the BBC in 2006, when she travelled to several Latin American countries, including Bolivia, Colombia, Peru and Argentina.[1] She produced a number of news pieces while on sabbatical which focused on issues facing the region, including street children and a campaign to legalize the production of the coca leaf.

The story involves Kinnikuman (his real name is Suguru Kinniku), a clumsy fool of a superhero, finding out he is the missing prince of the planet Kinniku, known for turning out the greatest superheroes in the universe. Being a clumsy fool, however, he must prove himself worthy of the throne. To do so, he enters into wrestling competitions and battles evil Chojin, ultimately culminating in a tournament between Kinnikuman and five pretenders to the throne (Kinnikuman Big Body, Soldier, Zebra, Mariposa, and Super Phoenix). Many of Kinnikuman's allies begin as villains (Ramenman, Buffalo Man, Ashuraman, Warsman), and extremely arrogant heroes (Terryman, Robin Mask, Rikishiman).

As the popularity increased, an anime came about and lots of merchandising. Amongst the most popular merchandise were the "Kinnikuman Keshigomu": erasers made in the shapes of the Kinnikuman characters. The kids were playing with them as toys and called them "Kin-Keshi" for short. They were subsequently marketed as such, and accessories like a wrestling ring were soon to follow.

Where's Huddles? was a Hanna-Barbera animated television program which premiered on CBS on July 1, 1970 and ran for ten episodes as a summer replacement show (for The Glen Campbell Goodtime Hour) until September 2. It was similar in style to the studio's considerably more successful The Flintstones, and it used several of the same essential plots and voice actors. Also, like The Flintstones, and unlike many other animated series, Where's Huddles? aired in the evening during primetime, had a laugh track, and had somewhat adult themes. All ten episodes were produced and directed by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera.

The show's premise involved a professional football quarterback named Ed Huddles (voiced by Cliff Norton) and his neighbor, the team's center Bubba McCoy (voiced by Mel Blanc). They played for a team called The Rhinos. Other characters included Ed's wife Marge Huddles (voiced by Jean Vander Pyl, also the voice of Wilma Flintstone), their rather jovial if acerbic neighbor Claude Pertwee (voiced by Paul Lynde) who tended to refer to Ed and Bubba as "savages" {Pertwee's only friend is a spoiled cat named "Beverely"}; their teammate Freight Train (voiced by Herb Jeffries), and their daughter Pom-Pom. Bubba's wife Penny McCoy was played by comedic actress Marie Wilson in her final role before her death from cancer in 1972.

The United States Olympic Committee (abbreviated USOC) sent 211 athletes (122 men, 89 women) to the 2006 Winter Olympics. Chris Witty, a four-time Olympian, who competed in both Summer and Winter games, and won a gold medal in speed skating at the 2002 Games, served as the flag bearer at the Opening Ceremonies. Speed skater Joey Cheek, who won gold in the 500 m and silver in the 1000 m, was the flag bearer at the Closing Ceremonies. One athlete, Sarah Konrad, became the first American woman to compete in two different disciplines at the same Winter Olympics - biathlon and cross country skiing.

While the United States' total medal count was down from the 2002 Winter Olympics, there were many highlights to the Games. Pete Fenson led the U.S. Curling team to a bronze medal, their first curling medal ever won. Speed skater Shani Davis became the first athlete of African descent from any country to win an individual gold medal. He won gold in the 1,000 m and followed that with a silver medal in the 1,500 m. Ice Dancers Tanith Belbin and Benjamin Agosto won America's first figure skating ice dancing medal in 30 years.

Yugoslavia participated for the last time in the Eurovision Song Contest 1992. Yugoslavia decided their entrant for the contest through a national final, Jugovizija 1992, where it was decided that Extra Nena, with the song "Ljubim te pesmama", would sing for Yugoslavia at Eurovision 1992.

The winning song was chosen by an expert jury.

After the contest, United Nations Security Council resolution 757 (adopted May 30, 1992) placed sanctions on FR Yugoslavia[1], which included a ban on its participation in international contests and cultural events (such as the ESC).[2] Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia and Slovenia then appeared independently beginning with the 1993 contest, FYR Macedonia joined the 1998 contest and Serbia and Montenegro were allowed to participate once again in 2002.

Following the portal's creation in March 2000, Keenspot was serving over 23 million page views monthly by February 2001 and had 47 cartoonists[5] and by July of that year they had launched the free comics web hosting service Keenspace (now[update] Comic Genesis). In 2001 Keenspot launched its own printed comic book line and launched graphic novel collections in 2002 both at Comic-Con International. By August 2002 Keenspot had opened a retail store selling brandname toys and comics, had 50 million pageviews monthly and 600 paying members - who can read the comics without ads - and had published 26 titles.[6]

Keenspot gross revenues grew from $103,976 in 2002 to $188,475 in 2003 with the number of pageviews largely unchanged from mid 2001.[7] As of October 2007[update] it claimed to be home to more than 50 comics covering several genres and artistic styles.[8] Keenspot says they are the largest publisher of exclusive comics on the Internet.[8]

One of Keenspot's most notable traits is that it has been a starting point and steadfast supporter of many successful webcartoonists over the years. More than a dozen comics originally and currently hosted at Keenspot have branched out to become substantial full-time jobs for their creators.

Prior to forming The Pitbulls in Extreme Championship Wrestling, Gary Wolfe, who later became "Pitbull #1", won the ECW Television Championship on April 16, 1994. In 1995, Wolfe and Anthony Durante, the latter of whom became "Pitbull #2", reformed The Pitbulls in ECW. Soon after joining the company, The Pitbulls won their first and only ECW World Tag Team Championship on September 16, 1995 from Raven and Stevie Richards.[1] They were soon joined by Francine, who became their manager and dubbed herself "The Beastmaster". One month later, they lost the titles back to Raven and Richards.[1]. In 1996, The Pitbulls then moved into an intense feud with The Eliminators, which saw their manager Francine receive the Total Elimination on two different occasions. The feud culminiated at the first-ever CyberSlam in a three-on-three dog collar match, which saw Francine team with the Pitbulls against Stevie Richards with The Eliminators. The Pitbulls won the match after superbombing Richards and letting Francine pin Richards. However, The Eliminators hit the Total Elimination on Pitbull #1, Pitbull #2, and Francine after the match. After this, Pitbull #2 went on to win the ECW World Television Championship on June 1 at the Fight the Power event. However, Pitbull #2 held the belt for only 21 days before losing it to Chris Jericho at Hardcore Heaven.

Villon's real surname has been a matter of dispute; he has been called François de Montcorbier and François Des Loges and other names, though in literature Villon is the sole name used. Villon was born in 1431, almost certainly in Paris. The singular poems called Testaments, which form his chief if not his only certain work, are largely autobiographical.

It appears that he was born in poverty and that his father died in his youth, but that his mother was still living when her son was thirty years old. The name "Villon" was stated by the sixteenth-century historian Claude Fauchet to be merely a common noun, signifying "cheat" or "rascal", but this seems to be a mistake. It is, however, certain that Villon was a person of loose life, and that he continued, throughout his recorded life, a reckless way of living common among the wilder youth of the University of Paris. It is possible that he derived his surname from his uncle, a close friend and benefactor named Guillaume de Villon, chaplain in the collegiate church of Saint-Benoît-le-Bestourne, and a professor of canon law, who took Villon into his house.

Im Juni 1455 brachte er einem ebenfalls messerbewaffneten Priester im Streit eine tödliche Wunde bei. Unklar bleibt, ob das Opfer selbst krimineller Natur war und Villon in Notwehr handelte. Dieser zog es vor, aus Paris zu verschwinden, nachdem er sich unter falschem Namen von einem Barbier die Wunde an den Lippen hatte verbinden lassen, die er selbst beim Kampf davongetragen hatte. Schon Anfang 1456 konnte er zurückkehren dank zweier Begnadigungsurkunden von König Charles VII., die den Tathergang eingehend schildern. Hierbei heißt er übrigens in der ersten „François des Loges, auch Villon genannt“ und in der zweiten „Françoys de Monterbier“. Letzteres gilt als Abschreibfehler für „Montcorbier“, den Namen, unter dem in Pariser Studentenlisten von 1449 und 1452 ein „Franciscus de Moultcorbier“ bzw. „de Montcorbier“ figuriert, der vom Alter her mit ihm identisch sein könnte. Wer ihm die Begnadigungsurkunden verschafft hat, geht nicht aus ihnen hervor. Eventuell half ihm in Bezug auf die erste Urkunde sein Ziehvater Gillaume, dessen Namen „Villon“ François hier womöglich zum ersten Mal benutzte. In seinem Testament (V. 1030 ff.) gibt Villon außerdem an, sein Anwalt Fournier habe ihm mehrfach aus der Patsche geholfen.

Dariusz Zakrzewski (born June 18, 1961 in Białystok) is a Polish professional road racing cyclist. He was a third place on Tour de Pologne (1985), winner of French race Conseil general de Val D'oisse (1991) where he defeated later world champion, Laurent Brochard. In France he also won Paris-Vaily-Classic and Paris-St. Mouve races.

He was a member of following teams: Ognisko Białystok, Gwardia Katowice, VC Levallois and Corbeil Essonnes. In March 25, 1993 he officially ended his cycling career. Since 2000 Zakrzewski is a second technical director in CCC-Polsat team.

The Kurds in Lebanon have not received public or official attention except at times when Kurdish youngsters were needed to fight a certain battle for a certain part, or at times when Kurdish votes were need by a local leader to be successful in an election. [1] There is virtually nothing published on Kurds in Lebanon, because of failure of the Kurdish community to produce necessary intelligence. Kurds in Lebanon are considered as Sunni Muslims with no special status accorded to their ethnicity.

Estimates about the number of Kurds in Lebanon prior to 1985 were between 60,000 and 90,000 people. [2]

There are tens of thousands of Kurds in Lebanon, mainly in Beirut.

"If your looking for me you better check under the sea"

Marianne is a young girl who is bedridden with a long-term illness. She draws a picture to fill her time, and finds that she spends her dreams within the picture she has drawn. As time goes by, she becomes sicker, and starts to spend more and more time trapped within her fantasy world, and her attempts to make things better by adding to and crossing out things in the drawing make things progressively worse. Her only companion in her dreamworld is a boy called Mark, who is also a long-term invalid in the real world.

Marianne Dreams was first published by Faber and Faber in 1958, and was first printed in paperback by Puffin Books in 1964. It was illustrated with drawings by Marjorie-Ann Watts.

Catherine Storr's later novel Marianne and Mark was a sequel to Marianne Dreams.

Kyösti Kallio [IPA: kyøsti kallio] (April 10, 1873 – December 19, 1940) was the fourth President of Finland (1937–1940). He was a prominent leader of the Agrarian League, and had previously been Prime Minister four times and Speaker of the Parliament six times [1] [2].

Kyösti (originally Gustaf) Kallio was born in Ylivieska, Finland. His father was a farmer and a prominent local politician. Kallio served in the Diet of Finland 1904–1906 as a member of the Estate of the Peasantry. He joined the newly founded Agrarian Party in 1906 and became one of its prominent leaders. He became an agrarian minister in the Senates of Oskari Tokoi, Pehr Evind Svinhufvud and Juho Kusti Paasikivi. During the Civil War in Finland, he hid in Red-dominated Helsinki, because he was at least nominally on the White side and therefore a "class enemy"; he formed a new senate in Helsinki after German troops had defeated the Reds in the city. Afterwards he became a moderate peace-maker and disapproved of retaliation against the Reds.

Sputnik 3 (Russian: Спутник-3, Satellite 3) was a Soviet satellite launched on May 15, 1958 from Baikonur cosmodrome by a modified R-7/SS-6 ICBM. It was a research satellite to explore the upper atmosphere and the near space.

In July 1956, the Soviet Union's OKB-1 drafted a project to design and build the first Earth satellite, designated ISZ (Artificial Earth Satellite). Sputnik 3 was planned to be the first satellite launched by the Soviet Union. The new R-7 intercontinental ballistic missile was ready to launch before Sputnik 3 was ready. The Sputnik 3 completion date kept slipping and Sergei Korolev substituted the relatively simple Sputnik 1 as the first satellite to be launched, instead. The Sputnik 2 was also ready earlier and launched earlier than Sputnik 3. Korolev was concerned that if he waited for Sputnik 3 to be ready, the United States would be the first to launch an artificial satellite.

The Lust for Life sessions took place soon after the completion of a concert tour in support of the The Idiot album, the tour ending on 16 April 1977.[1][2] Pop has stated, "David and I had determined that we would record that album very quickly, which we wrote, recorded, and mixed in eight days, and because we had done it so quickly, we had a lot of money left over from the advance, which we split."[3] The singer slept little during its making, commenting "See, Bowie's a hell of a fast guy... I realized I had to be quicker than him, otherwise whose album was it gonna be?"[1] Pop's spontaneous lyrical method inspired Bowie to improvise his own words on his next project, "Heroes".[2]

Flag varieties can be defined in various degrees of generality. A prototype is the variety of complete flags in a vector space V over a field F, which is a flag variety for the special linear group over F. Other flag varieties arise by considering partial flags, or by restriction from the special linear group to subgroups such as the symplectic group. For partial flags, one needs to specify the sequence of dimensions of the flags under consideration. For subgroups of the linear group, additional conditions must be imposed on the flags.

The most general concept of a generalized flag variety is a conjugacy class of parabolic subgroups of a semisimple algebraic or Lie group G: G acts transitively on such a conjugacy class by conjugation, and the stabilizer of a parabolic P is P itself, so that the generalized flag variety is isomorphic to G/P. It may also be realised as the orbit of a highest weight space in a projectivized representation of G. In the algebraic setting, generalized flag varieties are precisely the homogeneous spaces for G which are complete as algebraic varieties. In the smooth setting, generalized flag manifolds are the compact flat model spaces for Cartan geometries of parabolic type, and are homogeneous Riemannian manifolds under any maximal compact subgroup of G.

A member of a Soghdian family from Usrushana, Abi'l-Saj entered into the service of the Abbasids and fought under the Afshin Haidar during the latter's final campaign against the rebel Babak in 837 AD. Over the next several decades he served the caliphs in various provinces.[1] In the 870s he was sent to Khuzistan to battle the Zanj rebels.

In 876 Abi'l-Saj joined the Saffarid amir Ya'qub bin Laith, who had led his army into Khuzistan during his advance into Iraq against the caliph. He was present during the Battle of Dair al-'Aqul, which ended in a Saffarid defeat, and reportedly remonstrated Ya'qub after the battle for his bad tactics. Following the defeat, the caliphal regent al-Muwaffaq seized his properties in Iraq.

In 879 Abi'l-Saj died. His two sons, Muhammad and Yusuf, would both go on to have distinguished careers, becoming the first and third, respectively, Sajid governors of Azerbaijan.

In geology it is used to define shear strength of soils and rocks at different effective stresses.

In structural engineering it is used to determine failure load as well as the angle of fracture of a displacement fracture in concrete and similar materials. Coulomb's friction hypothesis is used to determine the combination of shear and normal stress that will cause a fracture of the material. Mohr's circle is used to determine which principal stresses that will produce this combination of shear and normal stress, and the angle of the plane in which this will occur. According to the principle of normality the stress introduced at failure will be perpendicular to the line describing the fracture condition.

It can be shown that a material failing according to Coulomb's friction hypothesis will show the displacement introduced at failure forming an angle to the line of fracture equal to the angle of friction. This makes the strength of the material determinable by comparing the external mechanical work introduced by the displacement and the external load with the internal mechanical work introduced by the strain and stress at the line of failure. By conservation of energy the sum of these must be zero and this will make it possible to calculate the failure load of the construction.

Prior to the introduction of intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs), the Strategic Air Command, and probably its Soviet counterpart, had multiple bombers flying at any given time. In the event of a nuclear strike by one of the nations, the other nation would order their bombers to fly to the other country and drop their nuclear payload on predetermined targets. In the United States, these bombers were typically either B-47 Stratojets or B-52 Stratofortresses, and there were three major flight routes. With bombers already in the air, there was an assurance that a retaliatory strike would be feasible, even if the country that was attacked could do very little otherwise. At the height of the Cold War, the United States had special Boeing E-4B airplanes equipped as control centers for the nuclear arsenal. This airplane included a military official who was authorized to order a retaliatory strike in the event that the President could not be contacted.

"Launch on warning" has its roots in U.S. President Dwight Eisenhower's "Positive Control" strategy, but really took shape with the introduction of the Minuteman missile. Since many ICBMs (including the Minuteman) were launched from underground silos, the concern arose that a first strike by one nation could destroy the ground launch facilities of the retaliating nation.

Salorno borders the following municipalities: Kurtinig an der Weinstraße, Margreid an der Weinstraße, Montan, Neumarkt, Capriana, Cembra, Faver, Giovo, Grauno, Grumes, Mezzocorona, Roverè della Luna and Valda.

Salorno is located in the famous natural park named the Parco Monte Corno. A settlement since the days of the Roman Empire, Salorno was first mentioned as Salurnis in a 580 deed, when the Lombards of Trentino fought against the invading Franks of the Merovingian kingdom.

The village is best known for the ruins of the medieval castle Castello dei Litigi (German: Haderburg). Situated on a limestone rock high above the Adige Valley, it marked the linguistic border between the German and the Italian speaking population of the Austria-Hungary Kronland Tyrol. The Salurner Klause, the bottleneck in the gorge below, was also characterized in the Südtirollied as the southern end of South Tyrol. The castle was first mentioned in a 1053 report and became the property of Count Meinhard II of Gorizia-Tyrol in 1284. Since 1648 the ruins are in possession of the counts Zenobio-Albrizzi.

Dale Hamer was an American football official in the National Football League (NFL) on two occasions, from 1978 to 1994 and from 1996 to 2001. During his 23 seasons in the NFL, Hamer was assigned to officiate in two Super Bowls as a head linesman, Super Bowl XVII in 1983 and Super Bowl XXII in 1988 and was an alternate referee in Super Bowl XXVII in 1993. He wore the uniform number 104.

Hamer is a 1960 graduate of California State College in Western Pennsylvania (now California University of Pennsylvania), and in the early 1960s taught algebra at Clairton High School in Clairton, Pennsylvania.

Hamer's career in the NFL started in 1978 as a head linesman. He was later promoted to referee in 1989 upon the retirement of long-time referee Fred Silva. He returned to the head linesman position in 1998 and worked on the crews of Larry Nemmers and Bernie Kukar.

In 1995, Hamer was forced to retire temporarly when doctors discovered that he had a heart murmur [1]. Further tests revealed that Hamer had stenosis and calcification of his aortic heart valve, and it would need to be replaced. In July 1995, Dale received a pericardial tissue heart valve. He would miss the entire 1995 NFL season, but returned at the start of the 1996 NFL season.

The area that is now known as Beyoğlu has been inhabited for millennia, and records show that a settlement existed on the northern shore of the Golden Horn since the time of Christ. In the Greek period, the hillside was covered with orchards and was named Sykai (The Fig Orchard), or Peran en Sykais (The Fig Field on the Other Side), referring to the "other side" of the Golden Horn. As the Byzantine Empire grew, so did Constantinople and its environs. This side of the Golden Horn was built up as a suburb of Byzantium as early as the 5th century. It was in this period that the area began to be called Galata, and a fortress was built by Emperor Theodosius II. The name Galata (possibly derived from the Greek word Galaktos, meaning milk) was presumably given because the area was an important farmland for the city. The Italians, on the other hand, believe the name comes from Calata, meaning downward slope, as Galata, which used to be a Genoese colony, is located on a hilltop that goes downwards to the sea. Gallic people believe the name Galata is Celtic. In classical mythology Galata was the ancestress of the Gallic people. The Galata section of Istanbul carries a reminder of the Celts, as does the city of Galati in Romania.

Dwyer did not play again until November 28, 1925, against Queensland in Brisbane.[2] Dwyer, now batting at number six, scored 20 runs before he was dismissed by Australian international Ron Oxenham, who went on to get a five-wicket-haul as NSW reached 287 all out. Oxenham then went on to score 96 as an opener in Queensland's reply total of 506, which also contained a century of 132 for Francis Thompson. Dwyer hit 23 not out as Queensland reached 77/4 before the three-day match ended as a draw.[4]

Dwyer's last appearance in first-class cricket came on February 8, 1929, against Tasmania in Hobart.[2] Winning the toss and with captain Charles Kelleway deciding to bat first, NSW reached 443 all out with Dwyer, now batting at number eight, being dismissed for two by Reginald Townley. NSW then quickly dismissed Tasmania for 158, with four wickets each for Ronald Eaton and Frank Jordan, who took a further two and four wickets respectively as Tasmania were dismissed for 102 in the follow-on to hand NSW victory by an innings and 182 runs, the only victory Dwyer was to partake in.

John Clogston (1954-1995) was a groudbreaking scholar in the area of news media images of people with disabilities. He made a significant contribution to mass communication research through his development of five media models, which can be used in content analyses of news coverage of people with disabilities and disability issues. He was the author of Disability Coverage in 16 Newspapers published by the Advocado Press in 1990. He had been a wheelchair user since a car accident in 1985.

Clogston was a founding member and eventually chair of the Media and Disability Interest Group (http://www.media-disability.net) of the Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication (AEJMC). The Media and Disability Interest Group gives out an award in his honor to the Top Student Paper at each year's annual convention.

He was assistant professor of journalism at Northern Illinois University in DeKalb at the time of his death, where he taught courses in news reporting, broadcast news, and electronic news gathering and editing.

Copernic wanted a service-oriented architecture (SOA) featuring complete control of IT systems, long-term sustainability and vendor independence. To cover all the fiscal information and its processing for 55 million citizens and 3 million enterprises, it had made a rational choice to use Free and Open Source Software (FOSS). The advantages of open source are: very low-cost or free of charge and source-code opening that guarantees the reliability, durability and security of these solutions.

Copernic deployed 4000 Linux servers and application architecture is based upon Java EE. It has full FOSS system monitoring (Nagios, MRTG) and software development platform (Eclipse). The presenter added, "FOSS is now our standard policy even for critical applications." They also needed a unique EJB reference implementation. After a tough competition between many candidates (WebLogic, WebSphere, Oracle, JBoss), they finally chose an open-source middleware JBoss. This is due to its known reliability, modularity, security and more importantly its independence from traditional industry constraints.

The Brick (Agrochola circellaris) is a moth of the family Noctuidae. It is distributed throughout most of Europe.

This is a variable species, the forewings ranging from yellow to reddish brown and marked with paler stigmata and fascia. The most distinctive marking is a dark discal spot, with a diffuse dark band linking it to the costa. The hindwings are dirty grey with pale cream margins. The wingspan is 34-44 mm. This moth flies at night from August to October [1] and will come to light but is more strongly attracted to some flowers and sugary foods.

The larva usually feeds on Wych Elm, with a preference for the flowers and seeds, but has been recorded on other elms, ash, poplar, Bird Cherry and Common Osier. This species overwinters as an egg.

The song begins with a woman named Shelly at the kitchen table with the morning newspaper, when her husband walks in the kitchen with tears in his eyes, explaining that he can't take his "ordinary life" anymore, which includes: "Pay the bills, watch TV, day in, day out, the same routine / Mow the grass, fix the leak, just to fix it again / Go to church, go to work, so picture perfect that it hurts / I feel like I'm trapped inside this ordinary life."

In the second verse, Shelly is still at the kitchen table, when her son comes up to her with a picture of her with Shelly. When the boy says his prayers, Shelly runs her fingers through his hair, showing that she is thankful for him every day.

By the song's bridge, Shelly's husband calls her from the airport at midnight, saying: "I can't believe how much I've missed / And what I wouldn't give / To pay the bills, watch TV, day in, day out, the same routine / Mow the grass, fix the leak, just to fix it again / Go to church, go to work, I can't tell you how this hurts / I miss my son, I miss my wife, and my ordinary life."

"Only You" was an old Fleetwood Mac song given an update - Mac's version had not yet been released at that point, though it can now be found on the Volume 1 of the triple Live In Boston set and the Live At The BBC 2CD set released in 1995. "Caroline" is another of the highlights, written about Danny's ex-wife,[1] and a sad insight into his state of mind at the time.

It is not clear how much of the guitar on the album was played by Kirwan, with Gregory and Bob Weston playing on several tracks, although a press release for the album states that Kirwan took the acoustic guitar solo on "Summer Days and Summer Nights". Producer Davis added the work of some 87 outside musicians to the recording, after Kirwan had laid down the basic tracks. On hearing the finished album, Kirwan told Davis that he thought it was "the best thing" he had done.[1] Davis said of the album some years later that it was "so bad...he had to finish it for contractual reasons. I even picked the songs."

The Red River Flood of 1997 was a major flood that occurred in April and May 1997, along the Red River of the North in North Dakota, Minnesota, and Southern Manitoba. It was the most severe flood of the river since 1826.

The flood reached throughout the Red River Valley, affecting the cities of Fargo and Winnipeg, but none so greatly as in Grand Forks and East Grand Forks, where floodwaters reached over 3 miles (5 km) inland, inundating virtually everything in the twin communities and causing US$2 billion in damages.

Stanley F. Lombardo (born 1943) is an American professor of Classics at the University of Kansas. He is best known for his translations of the Iliad, the Odyssey, and the Aeneid (published by the Hackett Publishing Company and notable for their anachronistic cover artwork). The style of his translations is a more vernacular one, emphasizing conversational English rather than the formal tone of some older American English translations of classical verse.[1] Lombardo designs his translations to be performed orally, as they were in ancient Greece. He also performs the poems, and has recorded them as audio books.[2]

Lombardo is a native of New Orleans. He has a B.A. from Loyola University in New Orleans, an M.A. from Tulane University, and a Ph.D. from the University of Texas (1976). In 1976 he joined the faculty at the University of Kansas, where he served as department chair for fifteen years and teaches Greek and Latin at all levels, as well as general courses on Greek literature and culture. He was appointed University of Kansas Honors Program director in 2004.

Lombardo is a Zen Buddhist. Along with his wife, Judith Roitman, he was a founding member of the Kansas Zen Center.

Fictional dystopias may impose severe social restrictions on the characters' lives, involving social stratification, whereby social class is strictly defined and enforced, and social mobility is non-existent. In the novel Brave New World', by Aldous Huxley, the class system is prenatally designated in terms of Alphas, Betas, Gammas, Deltas, and Epsilons. In We, by Yevgeny Zamyatin, people are permitted to live out of public view for only an hour a day. They are not only referred to by numbers instead of names, but are neither "citizens" nor "people", but "ciphers." In the lower castes, in Brave New World, single embryos are "bokanovskified", so that they produce between eight and ninety-six identical siblings, making the citizens as uniform as possible.[12]

Some dystopian works emphasize the pressure to conform in terms of the requirement to not excel. In these works, the society is ruthlessly egalitarian, in which ability and accomplishment, or even competence, are suppressed or stigmatized as forms of inequality, as in Kurt Vonnegut's Harrison Bergeron. Similarly, in Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451, the dystopia represses the intellectuals with particular force, because most people are willing to accept it, and the resistance to it consists mostly of intellectuals.[13] Moreover, in Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged, the protagonist Dagny Taggart struggles to keep Taggart Transcontinental thriving in a world that spurns innovation and excellence.

Der Begriff „Dystopie“ (dys- altgr. für miss-, un-, übel-; topia lat. für Landschaftsmalerei, -beschreibung, zu altgr.: topos für Ort, Gegend) hat vor allem in jüngerer Zeit breitere Verwendung gefunden. Synomyme sind „Anti-Utopie“, „negative Utopie“ oder „Gegenutopie“; selten wird auch „Kakotopie“ oder „Mätopie“ verwendet. „Dystopie“ ist ansonsten auch ein medizinischer Fachbegriff.

Eine Utopie ist eigentlich die Beschreibung einer Gegend, die es nicht gibt, eines Nirgendwo, denn die griechische Vorsilbe „ou-“ ist verneinend wie das deutsche „un-“ im Sinne von „nicht-“. Philosophische und literarische Utopien sind faktisch aber ausgeführte Entwürfe eines Staates oder Landes, dessen Gesellschaft gut organisiert ist, was deshalb gelegentlich – ähnlich, im Englischen sogar gleich klingend – „Eutopie“ genannt wird, denn die griechische Vorsilbe „eu-“ steht für „gut-“ oder „wohl-“. Eben dazu ist „dys-“ das Gegenstück. Insofern sind die Begriffe Dystopia und Utopia nicht exakt gegenteilige Begriffe in dem Sinne wie z. B. Dysphorie und Euphorie.

Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo met in 1987 on the grounds of the Lycée Carnot, a secondary school in Paris.[1] The two became good friends and later recorded demo tracks with others from the school.[4] This eventually led to the formation of the guitar-based group called Darlin' with Laurent Brancowitz in 1992.[5] Bangalter and de Homem-Christo played bass and guitar, respectively, while Brancowitz performed on drums.[6] The indie rock trio had branded themselves after The Beach Boys song of the same name, which they covered along with an original composition.[7] Stereolab released both tracks on a multi-artist Duophonic Records EP and invited the band to open for stage shows in the United Kingdom.[7][8] Bangalter felt that "The rock n' roll thing we did was pretty average, I think. It was so brief, maybe six months, four songs and two gigs and that was it."[9] A negative review in Melody Maker subsequently dubbed the music "a bunch of daft punk." Instead of dismissing the review, Bangalter and de Homem-Christo found it to be amusing.[4] As the latter stated, "We struggled so long to find [the name] Darlin', and this happened so quickly."[10] Darlin' soon disbanded, leaving Brancowitz to pursue other efforts with Phoenix.[5] Bangalter and de Homem-Christo formed Daft Punk and experimented with drum machines and synthesizers.

Operation Kratos is the code word used by the Anti-Terrorist Branch (SO13) of London's Metropolitan Police Service to refer to policies surrounding and including "shoot-to-kill" tactics to be used in dealing with suspected terrorists and suicide bombers. The tactics were developed shortly after the September 11, 2001 attacks, and are understood to be based in part on consultation with Israeli and Sri Lankan law enforcement agencies on how to deal with "deadly and determined" attackers. Little has been revealed publicly and officially about the policies, which were apparently first activated after the 7 July 2005 London bombings, and were only exercised in the mistaken shooting of Jean Charles de Menezes on 22 July 2005.

In an ITV1 factual drama of the de Menezes shooting, Stockwell, Operation Kratos was described as "a policy developed to counter suicide bombers. It allows select senior commanders to authorise shooting terrorists in the head, if intelligence suggests they are about to mount a deadly attack"

URGH I miss watching Lupin on [AS] too. Shit.

In the series, on July 17, 2002, something (referred to as a plague) simultaneously kills every mammal possessing a Y chromosome — including embryos, fertilized eggs, and even sperm. The only exceptions appear to be Yorick Brown, a young amateur escape artist, and his Capuchin monkey, Ampersand.

Society is plunged into chaos as infrastructures collapse, and the surviving women everywhere try to cope with the loss of the men, their survivor guilt, and the knowledge that humanity is doomed to extinction. Vaughan crafts the new society that emerges out of this chaos, from the conversion of the Washington Monument into a monument to the dead men, to the genesis of the fanatical ultra-feminist Daughters of the Amazon, who believe that Mother Earth cleansed itself of the "aberration" of the Y chromosome, to male impersonators becoming valued romantically and professionally.

The killer was thirty-eight year old Jonathon Brett Horrocks of Inverloch in Victoria's southeast. Brett, as he was commonly known, had been sacked from his job at the bar in February of that year for allegedly stealing alcohol. He was heard on one occasion prior to the killing speaking about his "unfair dismissal" and the "psychological damage" it had caused him in a mocking manner, as he waited for the results of an application for an unfair dismissal hearing to come through.

It is said that he committed the murder after his unfair dismissal charge was dismissed. He was charged with one count of murder and two counts of attempted murder and was sentenced to life in prison with a minimum non-parole period of 23 years. He described the incident as an "orgy of destruction".

Today there is a plaque 100 metres from the Eagle Bar in memorium of the victim Leon Capraro and an award in his name is awarded annually to the best Tourism and Hospitality student.
