He also wrote 'Roxana', 'Captain Singleton' and 'Moll Flanders'. Jonathan Swift (1667 1745) was born in Dublin to a poor family. However, his father died before he was born and he was raised by his uncle. He attended Dublin Univerity, where he excelled at history, literature and languages. After graduation he became a private secretary to Sir William Temple in London, who had a very large library where Swift could educate himself and he received his MA degree in 1692 from Oxford. He returned to Ireland and became a vicar, but went back to London in a year. In 1713 he became Dean of St. Patrick's cathedral in Dublin, where he witnessed the poor conditions of the working class which inspired him to criticize the Engish colonial policy.

many thousands of such inetneurons have been 'consulted' before the command to action is finally issued and sent down the path of the efferent nerve fibers. Nerve Cell and Nerve Impulse: The neuron is the simplest element of nervous action. It is a single cell, with three subdivisions: the dendrites, the cell body, and the axon. Dendrites are usually branched. The axon may extend for a very long distance, and its end may fork out into several end branches. Impulses from other cells are received by the dendrites; the axon transmits the impulse to yet other neurons or to effector organs such as muscles and glands. Thus the dendrites are the receptive units of the neuron, while the axon endings may be regarded as its effector apparatus. Total number of neurons in the human nervous system has been estimated to be over a 100 billion. There is no way of getting more; once lost, a neuron can never be replaced.
5 billion in 2000. Syria's foreign trade is highly dependent on its oil revenues and oil prices on the international markets. For the year 2000, the EIU reported that increasing oil prices have continued to boost export revenue and Syria recorded a surplus of more than US$1 billion for the first time since the Gulf War. Syria's chief exports are petroleum, textiles, food, live animals, and manufactured goods which are exported to Germany (which received 21 percent of exports in 1999), Italy (12 percent), France (10 percent), Saudi Arabia (9 percent), and Turkey (8 percent). Syria's main import products are machinery, food and live animals, transport equipment, and chemicals. The country's main import partners include France (which purchased 11 percent of imports in 1999), Italy (8 percent), Germany (7 percent), Turkey (5 percent), and China (4 percent). Additionally, a large amount of trade (nearly US $200 million) with
His work often engages political themes, satirically critiquing war, capitalism, hypocrisy and greed. Common subjects include rats, apes, policemen, members of the royal family, and children. In addition to his two-dimensional work, Banksy is known for his installation artwork. Other pieces have drawn attention for their edgy themes or the boldness of their execution. Banksy's work on the West Bank barrier, between Israel and Palestine, received significant media attention in 2005. He is also known for his use of copyrighted material and subversion of classic images. An example of this is Banksy's version of Monet's famous series of water lilies paintings, adapted by Banksy to include drifting trash and debris. Banksy's worldwide fame has transformed his artwork from acts of vandalism to sought-after high art pieces. Journalist Max Foster has referred to the rising prices of graffiti as street art as "the Banksy effect."
degree of hyponatremia. A 2006 study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine states unequivocally that "exercise associated hyponatremia is due to overdrinking." In the article, sports physiologists Timothy David Noakes and Benjamin Speedy lament the biomedical community's slowness to acknowledge the risks over over-hydration in endurance athletes. The paper recounts the upsetting story of a marathon runner in 1981, who, reporting to a hospital with symptoms resembling dehydration, received two liters of fluid delivered intravenously and was sent home. But the treatment didn't work. On the way home

You can't get away from yourself by moving from one place to another. Summary: Chapter III After Cohn leaves, Jake continues to sit in the café. He catches the eye of a pretty prostitute named Georgette. They have a drink together, and Jake decides it would be nice to have dinner with someone. They catch a horse cab to find a restaurant. While in the cab, Georgette makes a pass at Jake. Jake refuses her, saying he is sick. At dinner he explains that he received a wound in the war that makes such sexual dalliances impossible for him. Georgette exclaims against "that dirty war," but Jake is in no mood to talk about it. He escapes from the conversation when a group of his friends--Cohn and Frances among them--hails him from a nearby table. They invite him and Georgette to go dancing. The club is hot and crowded.

language. Although British English is considered to be more sophisticated and prestigious than American English, the latter is clearly more featured in television, music, video games and internet, naturally appealing more to English learners than British English. Also, in international communication American English is usually the preferred choice as it is acceptable and easily understandable in any context from Japan to Peru. While British English, especially the Received Pronunciation, is generally viewed as some kind of a “gold standard” in education and is usually focused on in textbooks and dictionaries, it should be remembered that American English has about 10 times more speakers than the RP and thus the significance of it in the today’s world should not be underestimated. 2) Submarine sandwich is ‘a large sandwich consisting of a long roll split lengthwise and filled with layers of meat, cheese, tomatoes, lettuce and condiments’ (www

Britain History Pre-Norman Britain The Iberians brought their metal-working skills and the first real civilization to Britain in the third millennium B.C and were overrun by various Celtic invasions that began in the 8th century. The Celts introduced their tribal organization and an early form of agriculture before they were forced westward by the Roman invasion. Forms of Celtic language are still spoken in Britain. Romans (with Julius Caesar in the head of them) first tried to occupy Britain in 55 B.C., but there was a rebellion in Gaul so they had to leave to fight against it. Next time they came in 43 A.D. and their leader was Emperor Claudius. Romans brought a lot with them. Their brought paved roads, the sites of important cities, the seeds of Christianity, the Roman law, Roman baths, language and advanced civilization. They also built Hadrian's Wall in 122 A.D.

theoretical interpretation. The experimental and theoretical work was honored with the Nobel prize in physics in 1902. Lorentz' name is now associated with the Lorentz-Lorenz formula, the Lorentz force, the Lorentzian distribution, and the Lorentz transformation. Albert Michelson (December 19, 1852 May 9, 1931) was an American physicist known for his work on the measurement of the speed of light and especially for the Michelson-Morley experiment. In 1907 he received the Nobel Prize in Physics. He became the first American to receive the Nobel Prize in sciences.

Only the three top Japanese systems were involved in this expensive radio retransmission: PURPLE, RED (a machine system that antedated PURPLE, which had supplanted it at major embassies, but that was still in use for legations such as Vladivostok), and the J series of enciphered codes. The Army did not install a teletype for intercepts from its continental posts until the afternoon of December 6, 1941; the first messages (from San Francisco) were received in the early morning hours of December 7. The intercept services missed little. Of the 227 messages pertaining to Japanese-American negotiations sent between Tokyo and Washington from March to December, 1941, all but four were picked up. In Honolulu, where a large Japanese population produced nightmares of antlike espionage and potential sabotage, the 14th Naval District's intelligence officer, Captain Irving S.

Retreat into reclusion By the age of thirty she had become a total recluse, living her life in total isolation: `You ask of my companions. Hills, sir, and the sundown, and a dog as large as myself, that my father bought me. They are better than beings because they know, but do not tell.' For over 20 years she never left her father's house, wore only white clothes and received very few guests. The townspeople of Amherst referred to her as `The Myth'. Poetry and letter-writing Dickinson was an avid reader and letter writer and exchanged letters with a large number of people, some of whom she never met personally.

For his part, Kipling had been increasingly thinking about the future. He sold the rights to his six volumes of stories for £200 and a small royalty, and the Plain Tales for £50; in addition, from The Pioneer, he received six-months' salary in lieu of notice. He decided to use this money to make his way to London, the centre of the literary universe in the British Empire. On 9 March 1889, Kipling left India, travelling first to San Francisco via Rangoon, Singapore, Hong Kong and Japan. He then travelled through the United States writing articles for The Pioneer that too were collected in From Sea to Sea and Other Sketches, Letters of Travel.

There are many theatres and theatre companies for young people: the National Youth Theatre and the Young Vic Company in London, the Scottish Youth Theatre in Edinburgh. The National Youth Theatre, which stages classical plays mainly by Shakespeare and modern plays about youth, was on tour in Russian in 1989. The theatre-goers warmly received the production of Thomas Stearns Eliot's play `Murder in the Cathedral'. Many famous English actors started their careers in the National Youth Theatre. Among them Timothy Dalton, the actor who did the part of Rochester in ` Jane Eyre' shown on TV in our country.

Henry was buried next to her. *Anne of Cleives - She was the Queen of England and the fourth wife of Henry VIII. Anne lacked education in her upbringing, but she was skilled in needlework, and was quite good at card games. Nevertheless, Anne was considered gentle, virtuous. However, Henry disliked from the moment they met and in a short time, Anne was asked for her consent to an annulment, to which she agreed. The marriage was annulled and she received a generous settlement. Henry and Anne became good friends and he later made her a Princess of England.

7 They also acted as midwives and story-tellers. Aboriginal lore(the facts and stories about a particular subject or topic) was an important and vital aspect of community life. For example Aboriginal people learned their 'laws' from those Dreamtime stories that informed the listeners about acceptable and unacceptable behaviour together with the punishment offenders received. It also taught and guided the people to survive. Some stories informed them about the life cycle of birds, animals and insects. Others (often called Song lines) were like oral road maps and identified tracks that the people followed when moving around their tribal territory or when visiting other tribes. Aboriginal lore / law required a person who did not 'belong' to a particular area, to be invited or granted permission, to enter into the territory of a tribe

Thereafter, he gives Othello his fair chance to speak and defend himself against the charges. Othello describes the invitations he often received from Brabantio to visit his home and share the stories of adventure and fortune in battle. Desdemona merely overheard his incredible stories and requests a private recount of the stories again, a scenario that causes her to fall in love with Othello. The Duke agrees with Othello’s assessment, that his stories would win the heart of any woman, and decides that Brabantio’s claims are unlikely. Desdemona arrives and confirms the decision by stating

and mobility is diminished (Adler & Adler, 1999). Even though enduring social categories such as nationality, class and occupation still mediate identity, pluralism and consumerism allow for a more open appraisal of transient styles of life fashioned around patterns of meaningful consumption. Although the concept of lifestyle is gaining speed as a theoretical tool amongst social scientists, it has until now received little import as a perspective of social analysis within the field of tourism. The uptake of lifestyle as an analytical device in tourism has been largely limited to quantitative approaches that use psychographics to segment travel behaviour (see Lee & Sparks, 2007). Outside of tourism, Adler and Adler (1999) examine the migratory patterns of resort workers and the manifestations of their transient lifestyles. Of a similar

not only by the Germans, but also by the Dutch, who opened many dikes as desperate defense measures, and later by the Allies in aerial assaults on German-held positions. The Germans occupied the country until they were ousted during 1944 and 1945. (3) The years following World War II were marked by intensive efforts to rebuild the country and to restore its trade and industry. In 1945 the Netherlands became a charter member of the United Nations. In 1948 it received funds through the European Recovery Program. The Netherlands joined with Belgium, France, Great Britain, and Luxembourg to form the Brussels Treaty Organization in 1948, and was a founding member of the European Coal and Steel Community in 1952. The country joined the North Atlantic Treaty Organization in 1949, the European Defense Community Treaty in 1952, and the London-Paris accords in 1955, thus becoming a full-fledged member of the Western European multinational defense establishment.

The Age of Reason: Being an Investigation of True and Fabulous Theology , a deistic treatise written by eighteenth-century British radical and American revolutionary Thomas Paine, critiques institutionalized religion and challenges the inerrancy of the Bible. Published in three parts in 1794, 1795, and 1807, it was a bestseller in America, where it caused a short- lived deistic revival. British audiences, however, fearing increased political radicalism as a result of the French revolution, received it with more hostility. The Age of Reason presents common deistic arguments; for example, it highlights the corruption of the Christian Church and criticizes its efforts to acquire political power. Paine advocates reason in the place of revelation, leading him to reject miracles and to view the Bible as an ordinary piece of literature rather than as a divinely inspired text. The Age of Reason is not atheistic, but deistic: it promotes natural religion and argues for a creator-God.
