Orivirran saarto is a place of 16th century fortress located in Savonranta, Finland. It's believed to be built around 1540-1550 and was used until the beginning of the 17th century. During 16th century Finland was a part of The Swedish Kingdom which tried to push the borders eastward, and that led to wars of varying success with Novgorod. The expansion was halted by the unification of Russia and was eventually rolled back later. Purpose of the Orivirran saarto was to be early warning for the St. Olaf's Castle which is still located 50km to south. Four cornered layout (60*20m) build from stones and outer fortress around 65*75m, with 300-400 soldiers and 5-10 cannons. October 1592 Russians, Cossacks and Carelians destroyed fortress by doing surprise attack from north-east. Finnish defenders of fortress lost 200 soldiers as a dead or prisoners of war, and Russians won 8 cannons, light weapons and one ship. Fortress didn't survive and today there exists only very few ruins of fortress with memorial stone (1965, H. Havas).

[The battered litigant defence]
Battered litigant’s defence Author: Michael Bar-Mordecai MBBS UNSW; B. Pharm Sydney University. 9.7.2006 The battered litigant’s defence ought to be a legal defence representing that the person accused of an assault or murder who was suffering from battered litigant syndrome at the material time. The defence ought to be invoked by both males and females of any age and it has as of now only been conceptulised as the battered litigant defence. The medical condition is not gender specific in the operation of the defence of self-defence by admitting evidence of the medical condition. Thus, this is a reference to any person being a battered litigant who, because of episodic and severe judicial abuse from the bench during hearings and usually involving contriving of judicial findings by a judicial officer(s) from the bench. The litigant subsequently becomes depressed and unable to take any independent action that would allow him or her to escape the abuse. Abused litigants often seek assistance from judicial commissions of states to fight their abuser(s), but are unable to leave the abusive situation. Sufferers have low self-esteem, and have a firm conviction that the abuse is not their fault. Such persons usually press charges against their abuser, but to no avail because judicial officers are immune from prosecutions for acts they perpetrate from the bench. Such abused litigants often becoming aggressive or abusive to others. There ought to be a consensus in the medical profession that such abuse results in a mental conditions severe enough to excuse alleged offenders. Nevertheless, the law makes reference to a psychological condition (as ICD9 code 995.81 Battered person syndrome) or otherwise included within DSM-IV as a sub-category of post-traumatic stress disorder), even though neither medical classification as currently drafted, includes the syndrome. Theory The term "battered litigant syndrome" was coined by Michael Bar-Mordecai in 2006. He has been a victim of judicial abuse and battering in the Supreme Court of NSW over a seven year period. He concluded that the perverse judicial battering from the bench and the perversion of findings and judgments by no less then nine Supreme Court judges constitued a conspiracy instigated by Einstein J and perpetrated by no less than nine judicial officers of the Supreme Court of NSW to victimise a self litigant and defraud him of $6,000,000.00. Each judicial battering bout usually consisted of three stages: • Tension building stage, when a victim suffers verbal abuse. At this stage, the victim/litigant may attempt to pacify the abuser in the Court domain from the bar table during a hearing. However, the victim's passivity may reinforce the judicial abuser's violent tendencies. • Contriving of findings and judgments, At this stage, the judicial abuser willfully perverts the course of justice with impunity in the knowledge that he/she is not accountable in law for his/her abusive findings and judgment. • Departing the crime scene. After the judicial abuser has discharged his tension by battering the victim with a abuse from the bench, contrived findings, judgment and orders, he/she as the judicial abuser exits the case and leaves the battered litigant in financial ruin and dispair with contrived orders based on contrived findings that are good in rem against the world . The Battered Litigant Syndrome The battered litigant syndrome” and this is a term used to describe a litigant like Michael Bar-Mordecai who has been abused and battered by several judicial members in the Supreme Court of NSW on repeated occasions with there being various forms of violations – hurtful words, threats, and perpetrated misadministration of justice by the adjudicator in his judgment, wherein the litigant is a passive recipient of abusive judicial behaviour. There is one problem though for the judicial abusers – in law battered litigants may not be accountable for their actions. There are several indicia of the battered litigant syndrome namely: a. Disillusionment in a litigant feeling oppressed as citizen, resulting from experience with our justice system; b. The denial of justice for a litigant in a court wherein justice was not to be obtained at any price; c. The litigant fantasizing about an act of vigilante vengeance because it seems like the only recourse; d. The litigant reporting a crime and found that he was punished instead of the criminal; e. The litigant feeling numb, disconnected and vulnerable, following protracted litigation as well as being abused by the adjudicator; f. The litigant feeling the system will defeat him at every twist and turn and there is nothing he can do about it; g. The litigant feeling that he has been victimized twice, once by a perpetrator and then by his protective system; h. The litigant feeling that he was a decent and honorable taxpayer who's been subjected to "cruel and unusual punishment" by judges as officers of the court. The new syndrome that has been coined by me herewith “The battered litigant syndrome” and this is a syndrome used to describe a battered litigant in person who has been abused and battered by the judiciary in Court on repeated occasions with there being various forms of violations – hurtful words, threats, contrived findings or brazenly deceitful written judgment and willful misadministration of justice by the adjudicator(s) in his (their) judgment, wherein the litigant is a passive recipient of abusive judicial behaviour. Abuse, by the members of the judiciary from the bench, both verbal and written, has been a fact of life for victimized litigants for many years, and at times the mistreatment of battered litigants in the dark ages was thought of as normal. Such judicial and state abuse of citizens cum self-litigants was the hallmark of: The Nazi regime in Hitler’s Germany in the 20th century; The Saddam Hussein’s regime in Iraq in the early 21st century; and Here, in your client’s jurisdiction in both the 20th and 21st centuries in the Bar-Mordecai litigations in the Supreme Court of NSW spanning over a decade that I am able to give evidence. However, as we have come to understand today, that kind of battering behavior is destructive. It destroys the abused and the abuser alike. Modern psychology has given us insight into these dynamics, commonly referred to, by Bar-Mordecai as the "Battered Litigant Syndrome." This title is a misnomer. Both the judicial abuser and the battered litigants caught up in this dynamic are playing their respective roles: in most cases, the litigant in person as the victim, and the judicial officer as the abuser/predator/attacker and in all these instances the transcripts of proceedings and the relevant judgments serve as a documented history of abuse and this becomes a matter of record that can be used to verify the judicial abuse. Today, perhaps one of the most pathetic groups of victims is former battered litigants who are suffering depression and abject poverty post battering. There are currently no estimates of how many battered litigants there in Australia at large. Malfeasance of judges is no small matter and accounts for many victims. Some of those victims bear such hatred for their judicial abusers that they would venture to kill those blameworthy judicial officers without batting an eyelid. It is my view that after killing an abusive judicial officer, these victimized litigants can go into court with their residual depression and this may be used as evidence in the murder trial to grant these battered litigants immunity from prosecution. Although, the "Battered Litigant Syndrome" may eventually be admitted in the courts as a legal defense, most of these battered litigants elect not to pursue their judicial abusers as I had chosen in the past not to pursue the Justice Clifford Roy Einstein and his judicial coconspirators namely Harvey DCJ; Paul Stein JA, Sheller JA, Giles JA, John Bryson J, Tobias JA and Keith Mason P. The battered litigants are special victims of the grotesque and monstrous judicial abusers namely, those that have been named above. Before a physician, psychiatrist, psychologist or healer can treat a problem, suffered by the battered litigant, namely the battered litigant syndrome; the patient must first be correctly diagnosed. Bar-Mordecai has the relevant expertise and details at his fingertips to be able to diagnose such victims of judicial abuse and point his finger at his former judicial Bar-Mordecai asserts the the battered litigant is helpless and is unable to leave his/her judicial abusers because of the rules of the Supreme Court and other Courts. Criticisms Unlike other disorders, this represents a diagnosis for both victim and abuser, because it relies on the behaviour and psychological characteristics of both parties. Battered litigants often entertain the maiming or killing of abusive judicial officers. The maiming or killing of abusive or battering judicial officers is not passive behaviour, but a cry for help to change a judicial system with appropriate legislation to make judicial batterers accountable. Battered litigants that I have encountered are from diverse socio-economic backgrounds, and the data on perpetrators is provided from the victim's perspective only, and there is no control group.
The law The courts in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, United Kingdom, and United States have not had to rule on such case to date. Common sense dictates that battered litigants can and will use force to defend themselves and sometimes kill their judicial abusers because of the abusive and sometimes life-threatening situation in which they find themselves, acting in the firm belief that there is no other way than to kill for self-preservation. The courts may have to acknowledge that this evidence may support a variety of defences to a charge of murder or to mitigate the sentence if convicted of lesser offences: • Self-defence when using a reasonable and proportionate degree of violence in response to the abuse might appear the most appropriate defence but • self-defence where the battered person was justified in acting in self-defence but used excessive force; • provocation; • diminished responsibility. My evidence of Michael Bar-Mordecai is that there is that there is no reliable body of knowledge and experience with respect to litigants suffering judicial abuse as it is never reported but moreso supressed by the judiciary. But common sense dictates a pattern of responses or reactions on the part of battered litigants and certain of those responses are what an ordinary person might expect. For example, an ordinary person would very likely reason that, the battered litigant concerned would report the abusive judicial conduct to a Judicial Commission who would do nothing to halt such behaviour.
The Bar-Mordecai case In this case, the battered litigant, namely Michael Bar-Mordecia was abused by no less than six courts. In late 1997 when the first court proceedings commenced, Bar-Mordecai was a practicing medical practitioner in solo medical practice in north Randwick in the State of NSW. He believes that Justice Clifford Roy Einstein perverted the course of justice and contrived his judicial findings. The former doctor was not a paranoid person. Bar-Mordecai as a battered litigant actually believed that: • he was at risk of serious mental harm or death, • he was at risk of losing his wife’s estate of $2,500,000.00 – she having died intestate; • he was at risk of losinghis own estate valued in 2005 at A$3,500,000.00 • he had to use his tenacity to preserve himself in Court, and • whether those beliefs were reasonable. On October 4, 1995, Minister of Justice Allan Rock commissioned a review by Judge Ratushny of the law of self-defence as applied in a total of 98 cases involving battered women. The resulting Review recommended that three of the women be granted free pardons on the ground that "no reasonable jury would convict her in the face of the evidence before me". Three other women had been provoked into killing and, in two cases, the women were resisting sexual advances by their respective victims when they killed them. In the other case, the Review found that the applicant had been subject to verbal and physical abuse at the hands of her victim, and that he had sexually assaulted her on the day she killed him. As a result of the Review, the Royal Prerogative of Mercy was invoked for four of the women, and the Minister of Justice exercised authority under s690 Criminal Code for a fifth. There have been a number of cases following the Review including R v Malott (1998) 1 SCR 123 (SCC). The legal problem is to determine whether a person's actions are reasonable. It is customary to adopt a reasonable person test but the fairness of the test may be skewed by decisions on which characteristics and life experiences should be incorporated into the knowledge base. The Canadian courts have held that the common sense assumptions made by jurors on spousal abuse may be erroneous and, therefore, expert opinion about the social context of abused spouses should be taken into account in factual determinations. However, there is still a marked lack of success and most female defendants feel obliged to plead provocation. English law In R v Ahluwalia (1992) 4 AER 889 a battered wife killed her violent and abusive husband. She claimed provocation and the judge directed the jury to consider whether, if she did lose her self-control, a reasonable person having the characteristics of a well-educated married Asian woman living in England would have lost her self-control given her husband's provocation. On appeal, it was argued that he should have directed the jury to consider a reasonable person suffering from 'battered woman syndrome'. Having considered fresh medical evidence, the Court of Appeal ordered a retrial on the basis that the new evidence showed an arguable case of diminished responsibility in English law. Similarly, in R v Thornton (No 2) (1996) 2 AER 1023 the battered wife adduced fresh evidence that she had a personality disorder and the Court of Appeal ordered a retrial considering that, if the evidence had been available at the original trial, the jury might have reached a different decision. The victim does not have to be in a position to carry out the threats immediately. In R v Charlton (2003) EWCA Crim 415 following threats of sexual and violent abuse against herself and her daughter, the defendant killed her obsessive, jealous, controlling partner while he was restrained by handcuffs, blindfolded and gagged as part of their regular sexual activity. The term of five years imprisonment was reduced to three and a half because of the terrifying threats made by a man determined to dominate and control the defendant's life. The threats created a genuine fear for the safety of herself and more significantly, her daughter, and this caused the defendant to lose control and make the ferocious attack. In HM's AG for Jersey v Holley (2005) 3 AER 371 the Privy Council regarded Smith as wrongly decided, interpreting the Act as setting a purely objective standard. Thus, although the accused's characteristics were to be taken into account when assessing the gravity of the provocation, the standard of self-control to be expected was invariable except for the accused's age and sex. The defendant and the deceased both suffered from chronic alcoholism and had a violent and abusive relationship. The evidence was that the deceased was drunk and taunted him by telling him that she had had sex with another man. The defendant then struck the deceased with an axe which was an accident of availability. Psychiatric evidence was that his consumption of alcohol was involuntary and that he suffered from a number of other psychiatric conditions which, independently of the effects of the alcohol, might have caused the loss of self-control and induced him to kill. Lord Nicholls said: Whether the provocative acts or words and the defendant's response met the 'ordinary person' standard prescribed by the statute is the question the jury must consider, not the altogether looser question of whether, having regard to all the circumstances, the jury consider the loss of self-control was sufficient excusable. The statute does not leave each jury free to set whatever standard they consider appropriate in the circumstances by which to judge whether the defendant's conduct is 'excusable'. Gender is also irrelevant. In AG's Reference (No.24 of 2003) (2003) EWCA Crim 2451 the defendant who had a low IQ, suffered prolonged taunting from his wife as to his illiteracy and impotency. During an argument, he stabbed her (and his son) and then wounded himself with a knife purchased during a break in the argument to harm himself rather than others. Sentences of three and a half years for each offence to be served concurrently were imposed, the sentencing judge referring to the defendant as having been worn down over months and eventually broken by the cruel taunting of his wife and being forbidden from seeing his children. When a weapon is used, the court is more cautious. In R v Howell (1998) 1 Cr. App. R. (S.) 229 the Court of Appeal reduced a sentence of 6 years to three and a half years. The wife's use of a gun to kill her violent husband weighed heavily in the "difficult balancing exercise" which the Court had to perform. In giving its judgment, the Court said: On the one hand there is the principle that spouses must not resort to the use of firearms however unhappy their marriage is. On the other hand there is the duty of the court to temper justice with mercy, even if a man has died, when there is a history of provocation and violence of the type that is so clearly shown in this case. The abuse may pervade the family environment. In R v Murray (2001) 2 Cr. App. R. (S) 5 following years of violence and abuse to both himself and his mother, the young defendant took an iron bar from the victim (his stepfather), and attacked and killed him with it. In reducing the custodial sentence from five years detention to an eighteen-month detention and training order, the Court of Appeal said that the trial judge had not given proper weight to the long period of abuse and the cumulative provocation experienced by the defendant. Finally, on the related condition, R v T (1990) Crim. LR 256 offered clinical evidence of post-traumatic stress disorder after a rape three days earlier to explain an armed robbery which involved her stabbing her victim and reaching into the victim’s car to take her bag. Such a disorder is closely similar in effect to that of concussion caused by a physical blow and Southan J. allowed the defence of automatism to go before the jury, accepting that an incident such as rape could have a traumatic effect on a young woman, however stable, and that could satisfy the requirement laid down in R v Quick & Paddison that there had to be evidence of "an external factor" causing a malfunctioning of the mind. Post-traumatic stress where the evidence suggested that the defendant was acting as though in a "dream", could therefore amount to automatism. The jury nevertheless convicted her. For more detail, see automatism (case law).
Reform The Law Commission Report on Partial Defences to Murder (2004) Part 4 (pp78/86) rejects the notion of creating a mitigatory defence to cover the use of excessive force in self-defence but accepts that the "all or nothing" effect of self-defence can produce unsatisfactory results in the case of murder. A battered woman, partner in a same-sex relationship or abused child using excessive force because he or she is physically at a disadvantage and not under imminent attack, would be denied a defence. It was always possible that the same set of facts could be interpreted as either self-defence or provocation where there was a loss of control resulting in death. Thus, the Commission recommends a redefinition of provocation to cover situations where a person acts lethally out of fear or hatred. This reflects the present view of psychiatrsts that most people act in violent situations with a combination of fear and anger in their minds, and to separate the two emotions is not legally constructive.
Australia
In Australia, self-defence might be considered the most appropriate defence to a charge of murder for a battered litigant who maims or kills to punish his/her abusers. It is about the rational act of a person who kills in order to alert the public that the judiciary needs to be held accountable for acts of wilful perversion of the course of justice. And once a battered litigant takes such action, only then can the raising of self-defence in Australia for battered litigants has meant that provocation has been the main focus of the courts (see Battered Women and Self Defence). In 2005, based on the Victorian Law Reform Commission's Defences to Homicide: Final Report, the Victorian government announced changes to the homicide laws in that state, which are intended to address this perceived imbalance. Under the new laws, victims of family violence will be able to put evidence of their abuse before the court as part of their defence, and argue self-defence even in the absence of an immediate threat, and where the response of killing involved greater force than the threatened harm. Such ought to be the case with the battered litigant that he/she will be able to put evidence of their abuse before the court as part of their defence and argue self defence, even in the absence of an immediate threat.
Should Bar-Mordecai maim or kill Justice Clifford Roy Einstein or some of his judicial coconspirators, Bar-Mordecai may plead provocation as the Probate judge contrived his findings in both the de facto and revocation issues as did the Probate Court of Appeal. There is evidence of contriving of major witnesses’ credibility, of contriving of findings neglect and not being mindful of evidence, humiliation, and abuse that any uninvolved person may be able to reach the same conclusions. On appeal, the Probate appeal court sanctioned the Probate judge’s findings of fact and law, and itself contrived its findings.
Generally Given that judicial officers are omnipotent when sitting at the bench and making his/her findings behind closed doors, a battered litigant who is threatened by a judicial officer both from the bench and in a judgment cannot afford to wait until the danger is immediate because by then the orders have been made and the judicial abuse is underway since he will likely to lose his estate and legal costs of the litigation. This is why battered litigants involved in long hearings often use a weapon when the judicial abuser is not prepared or otherwise at a disadvantage. Such a rational approach falls outside self-defence as most usually defined and a resulting homicide will be described as pre-meditated at trial with the use of a weapon an aggravating factor. Nevertheless, judges ought to be prepared to admit evidence about battering judicial officers and to mitigate sentencing. Despite this, self-defence may still prove difficult to invoke, possibly because success would result in an acquittal which may be difficult to accept since the battered litigant was solely responsible for the intentional maiming or death of another person. The judicial battering and abuse of selected victimised litigants usually occurs in cycles, it acquires a degree of predictability. In the case of Justice John Purdy Bryson, a justice of the Supreme Court of NSW who adjudicated the Bar-Mordecai hearing in Hillston v Bar-Mordecai and Bar-Mordecai v Hillston over 47 days in the Supreme Court of NSW Bar-Mordecai was able to predict the abuse. Another aspect of the cyclical nature of the abuse, is that it begets a degree of predictability to the abuse be it verbal abuse or written abuse. This also means that it may in fact be possible for the battered litigant to accurately predict the onset of the contrived findings and rulings before the judgment is written. This is problematic if the individual wishes to invoke self-defence because the laws in most most jurisdictions require that the defendant retreat in anticipation of the attack but in a courtroom this is not possible. The failure to end the judicial abusive relationship with the litigant is not in the hands of the victimised litigant. Repeated instances of judicial battering enable battered litigants to develop a continuum along which they can 'rate' the tolerability or survivability of episodes of their judicial abuser’s conduct. Thus, signs of unusual untenable judicial conduct are detected such as threatening of the litigant with contempt of Court or threatening of the litigant’s witnesses with contempt. For battered litigants, this response to the ongoing judicial abuse of their situations is a survival skill. There is little or no research on this issue possible because judicial battering of litigants has never been reported and to all intents and purposes has never existed till now. Battered litigants know what sorts of danger are familiar and which are novel. They have a myriad opportunities to develop and hone their perceptions of their judicial batterer’s violence or misadministration of justice. And, importantly, they can say what made the final episode of violence different from the others: they can name the feature of the last battering that enabled them to know that this episode would result in life-threatening action by the abuser. As the laws are currently defined, this is more indicative of a situation in which provocation could be the defence. In a cycle of repeated violence, the battered litigant may reach the point of the "straw that breaks the camel's back", i.e. the latest act of abuse that finally provokes the response. This need not be inherently more severe than any other incident, but simply one act of abuse too many. But, if the battered litigant has reasonable grounds for believing that his/her life and estate is in immediate danger. Expert evidence may be admissible and possibly necessary, "in order to understand the reasonableness of a battered litigant’s beliefs, which in Bar-Mordecai’s case was that he had to act with deadly force to alert the legislators of NSW that the judicary need be made accountable for wilful and heinous acts perpetrated from the bench and contrary to the judicial oath of office. Bar-Mordecai claims that a battered litigant can be both provoked into an out-of-control retaliation causing grievous bodily harm or death to the judicial abuser and using more force than is reasonably believed necessary in his own defence. It may be that some battered litigants suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder. The question of whether the battered litigant after years of judicial abuse might be suffering from a "disease of the mind" for the purposes of the M'Naghten Rules or an "abnormality of mind" for the purposes of diminished responsibility is more difficult. The abuser is an external factor when the initial relationship is being formed but, over time, the battered litigant's response to the abuse may produce verifiable mental illness or disease. Bar-Mordecai attempted suicide on the 15.12.2000 due to the cumulative impetus of several judicial abusers who were Justice Clifford Einstein’s coconspirators. Bar-Mordecai believes that there would seem little difficulty in a court concluding that a battered litigant's responsibility has been impaired by the continued abuse so long as expert medical testimony confirms the reality of the condition and the evidence of the cycle of abuse as a cause is credible. The judicial abuse and its consequential effect to defraud the battered litigant of his estate by Court order is adequate to explain depression and further an attempted suicide. According to Bar-Mordecai, battered litigants find it difficult to leave a battering adjudicators or rather flee from the judicial abusers because it is not possible to abandon a litigation. Another explanation for the failure of battered litigants to leave their battering adjudicators in litigantions is based on the phenomenon of "traumatic bonding" or "Stockholm syndrome" that occurs between hostages and captors, battered children and their parents, concentration camp prisoners and guards, and batterers and their partners, judicial abusers and battered litigants. But all of these explanations are pathologising, medicalising, and reinforcing notions of battered litigants as passive victims.

SpongeBob Nation
At first SBN was just a forum. It grew, and grew, and grew. Now it has Forums and a website.
The site was created February 4, 2006.
I did a WHOLE LOT of research trying how to make a good forum, how to get more visitors, and making banners, skins, and custom thing for SpongeBob Nation©
It started off as a simple forum but then I added more topics and more ideas.
Later I added a homepage with game, SB news, and other stuff.
My website was getting popular by the week.
Timed Events of SpongeBob Nation
2/06- The Forums were created Feb. 4 and I didn’t have to pay a dime. This whole month, I was working on improving the whole look of the site and I finally found it, the flower SB sky for the back ground. I also started working on a home page for SBN and worked on the look and chat rooms, games, and news. I got more than 20 members in the 1st month! Still, I didn’t pay a cent.
I also had a variety of banners.
3/06- This month was BAD!
2 people were banned from the forums. Then the forums were shut down. They still are down and never coming back probably. But, there was one good thing about this month. I got a domain name with a better site host. The forums ended with 44 members.
4/06- The forums made a comeback. I added a capsule and much more info. was added to the site. The best part, I made it so that you can watch episodes and the movie on the site. Games & Staff information was added. Now, I’m working on getting thousands of pictures from EVERY episode.
5/06- More content added. The new SpongeBob episodes were fun. I did the pictures but the downloads wouldn't work.
6/06- I added an affiliate section and got some. The forums got a skin selestor and a shoutbox(but the shoutbox is being redone now) Many more capsules were added.
SpongeBob Nation is truely one of the greatest SpongeBob sites ever. The SpongeBob Nation Message Board/Forums!

Taung Baby
The Taung Baby was the skull and bones of a young Australopithecine found in 1924 by Dr. Raymond Dart. In that time many natives of South Africa had unexpectedly dug up ape or monkey fossils, such as baboons. Scientists of the time disregared this because apes lived in tropical forests and their had been none ever known. One person started to protest against that claim ad his evidence was a skull of an extict species of monkey. Added was the location, the fractered skull came from a lime works that he owned at Taung, then a part of the Bechuanaland Protectorate. One of the young woman scientists passed this knowledge to her anatomy professor Dr. Raymong Dart. Who was then teaching at the University of Witwatersrand in Johannesburg. Dart was ecstactic and asked the quarry owned that if any more probable fossils show up that they be sent to Dart. In a couple weeks two shipments of limestone arrived at his house. Their was nothing of particular interest in the first box. But, in the second he found the roundish cast of the Taung Baby. At first Dart thought it was the skull of a baboon, but as he looked closer he decided that it was too large to fit in the skull of a baboon. And the forebrain was much bigger in proportion. He took out the skull and placed it a box of sand. The next day he noticed another picularly the foramen magnum was at the bottom of the skull indicating bipedalism. Dart then wrote a paper about it to Nature. The project was accepted and the whole world was informed of the Taung Baby. He named the creature Australopithecus Africanus. Althought the thought of a bipedal ape was rather repulsive at the time Dart was right about the baby at Taung.

Kalahari Resort & Convention Center
The Kalahari Resort & Convention Center is a resort/water park complex that has locations in Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin and Sandusky, Ohio.
Overview
Both resorts have a distinct African theme. The lobbies have artificial waterfalls, trees, animals, etc. Special events, such as getting your picture taken with baby tigers, are also held. Most of the water slides in their water parks are named after African animals, such as the "Rippling Rhino" and the "Wild Wildebeest". Other things included in Kalahari are restaurants, gift shops, sweet shops, and a variety of rooms and suites.
Name
The Kalahari Resort is named after the Kalahari Desert in Africa, hense its African theme.
Wisconsin Dells Location
Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin, home of the largest outdoor water park, Noah's Ark, is also home to the first Kalahari Resort, which is known for having the largest indoor water park. Water park admission is included upon staying at the resort, but also available to the general public as well. Prices for the general public vary, due to your age or special holiday discounts. Along with the indoor water park, there is also an outdoor water park. See below for a list of the water parks' rides and attractions.
The lobby, as described above, along with the indoor water park entrance area, is where you'll find two restaurants: The Great Karoo and Kahunaville. You can also rent one of the resort's condos rather than a room or suite. Other things to do at Kalahari are going to their relaxing spa or luxurious lounges, golfing, enjoying their gift and sweet shops, and even the chance create your own pottery!
Sandusky Location
The Sandusky, Ohio location is about the same as its predecessor, except the restaurant and shop names slightly differ. It did not have and outdoor water park until summer 2006, but as of then, it is smaller than the Kalahari in Wisconsin Dells. The indoor water park is also smaller, but still has the same variety of rides and attractions. Also included are the same golfing, condos, spa, etc. as in the Wisconsin Dells location.

A 1988 horror/action film starring retired football lineman Lyle Alzado. Alzado plays "Ivan Mozer", a 6'4", 350 lb. serial killer who has been convicted of the rape, torture & murder of 23 men, women & children --although, at his execution, he boasts of having killed 24. Moser is sentenced to die by electrocution but the initial conductivity fails to kill Moser, which results in a power outage at the prison. Moser is given ample time to kill several prison staff members and dissappear. A year later, a film crew sets their sites on the now closed prison for the filming of a cheap, exploitation movie titled "Death House Dollies".
- WARNING** PLOT SPOILER INFORMATION BELOW!!! --
Moser has been living within the closed prison's walls since the day of his botched execution. He has been able to do so because his father oversees the abandoned grounds as a State employed security guard. Moser kills off all members of the cast & crew over the course of a couple of days, including the director played by Anthony Perkins. While doing so, he becomes obsessed with one crew member; a woman named Malone, who is stunt doubling the lead actress in the production. Once everyone else working on the set has fallen victim to gruesome deaths (electrocution, burning, beheading & jackhammer) at the hands of Ivan Moser, a final showdown is set between the crazed killer, Malone & her boyfriend. After several attempts to kill the fiend, Malone eventually stops Moser, at least for the remainder of THIS film by setting him on fire and shoving him into an underground canal with a propane tank that explodes by him. The film concludes with Malone having a nightmare while recuperating in her hospital bed. She dreams that Moser has trapped her in the hospital by posing as an orderly. In the dream sequence, Alzado rips his burned ear off and eats it, while laughing hysterically.

once more i sit here helpless watching my life unfold, it's like watching a scary horror movie, you see it coming but you can't do a thing but grind your teeth, bite your nails and wait for it to end. Everything was fine but as i thought it would only get better, he manage to prove me wrong once more, i'm lost in my thoughts and my actions. I dont know how to control it. It's like someone took over my life. I have no say so in anything. I do everything without thinking it through. I know if it continues my life will unfold and unfold completely. So i ask myself and others "What exactly is life?", if it's waking up to the lonely world, that i wake up to, is it always thiking of not being in the position, that i feel that i am in. Is it wanting to feed on others to make yourself feel better, like others feed upon me, is it wanting to kill nobody but yourslef, as i do EVERY SIGNAL morning! Is it?

My version of tensor calculus is based on Clebsch-Gordan coefficients. Most of mathematical physicist know these coefficients only as the coefficient for ireps (irreducible representations) of the spheriacla group SO(3). I have introduced so-called Clebsch-Gordan products in terms of typical variables [1] which enable calculation of tensor decomposition into tensorial covariants (bases of irreducible representations) as well as calculations of the extended integrity bases of polynomials. The original motivation has been the Landau theory of phase transition, but it is my belief that the method is the simplest to deal with material tensors. Just to see whether this subnject is of interest for these pages, I shall give a reference to some of my basic work which does not mean that I do not want to point out the connections with other approaches. I am accustome to write my articles in Latex, so it will be fine if you inform me how to proceed if your preliminary review will show the article will be of interest for these pages. I found pages about tensor calculus applications in the theories of gravitation and other high matters but none on the simple use in solid state physics.
You may inform me on e-mail (contact info deleted)
By the way, I do not care about merciless reviewing, this is usually of help.

Is it wanting to feed on others to make yourself feel better, like others feed upon me, is it wanting to kill nobody but yourslef, as i do EVERY SIGNAL morning! Is it?

Using fa jin one can deliver an explosive energy strike from touch contact with the opponent, we don't have to draw back our arm to hit them. So dim mak should really be translated as death strikes not the death touch. One common myth which has crept into the dim mak ( acupuncture point striking ) story is that people say that they were knocked out and the taiji fighter never touched them. In actuality the fa jin ( explosive energy strike ) was to fast to see and with a knock out to the person who has been hit, upon recovering consciousness has lost that second of memory just before he went into knock out.

[James C. Manning]
James C. Manning IV (May, 29, 1929), American author, was born in Brooklyn (NY) to the late Helen and James C. Manning III. He married Bette Anne Manning (former Reilly), also of Brooklyn and they had three children. Using a fake identification card, he enlisted in the United States Marine Corps in 1945 and reenlisted at the beginning of the Korean Conflict. He joined the New York City Police Department in 1955 and assumed several positions during his 27 year career including a member of the TPF (Tactical Patrol Force) and as a sergeant in Emergency Service. During this time and from his experiences he wrote the novel “Blue Invective,” which was published by Bobbs-Merrill (NY, 1973). This book was the first book published by a member of the NYPD while still on active duty. While using fictional characters, it gave and accurate portrayal of the life of a cop in an American ghetto, breaking with the sterile, unrealistic depiction of day-to-day police work as shown in Adam-12 and McCloud. He launched a police genre that resulted in modern police shows focused on the NYPD such as “NYPD Blue” and “Law and Order.”

Judith Devere From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Writer of erotic fiction in the BDSM genre. See "Flesh - The Island of Madam SIN", ISBN 1-55410-203-0, published by eXstasy Books ( www.exstasybooks.com ). Flesh – The Island of Madam SIN is the story of Katrina Mandell, a beautiful young woman from a privileged family background whose life is transformed dramatically overnight. To save her father from ruin and prosecution for fraud, she abandons her burgeoning career as a successful actress to indenture herself, body and soul, to her father’s business partner, the charismatic but ruthless Armand Levequ. Katrina’s world is suddenly confined to a beautiful Caribbean island. Her home there is Chateau Levequ, where she is subjected daily to relentless sexual excesses and sado-masochistic torment beyond her wildest imaginings. All this under the direction and watchful eye of Madam Christina SIN, Armand Levequ’s appointed Mistress of Chateau Levequ. Although Katrina’s indenture is to last only six months, it will change her forever…and there is a deeper purpose to her ordeal than she could possibly guess…

--74.139.51.203 06:04, 9 July 2006 (UTC)--74.139.51.203 06:04, 9 July 2006 (UTC)Tales Of Legendia is a RPG game or the Playstation 2 Entertainment System made by Namco. It is part of the "Tales Of" series. It center around the main character, Senel Coolidge and his 2 "sisters" Shirly Fennes and Stella. The game revols around the "Radiant" (People of the water) and the People Of The Land, and the Radiant's "savior" (Shirly). You will use Eres in the game as a sort of magic/skills. Iron Eres utilize physical skills while Cryistal Eres use ones like magic. The following is a list of characters you can use in the game.[reply]
Senel Coolidge- Iron Eres - Senel is the main character, and the physically strongest character available. He has a unique power to throw enemies, so long as they are thrown down first, they must also be in the correct weight class.
Will Raynard- Crystal Eres- Will's eres mix healing and attacking, thought not the best in each. He is extremely useful in the beginning due to his First Aid eres. He is also good for his Recover eres, which cures a stauts condition without the use of an item.
Chloe Valens- Iron Eres- Chloe is the second strongest character, however is HP is somewhat low. Her eres are able to hit many times in a row and keep the enemy busy, thus, she is good in many fights. Sword Rain, Sword Rain Alpha, and Sword Rain Omega are all examples of this.
Norma Beatty- Crystal Eres- Although Norma posses decent attact eres, its her healing thats useful. She may not be able to heal as much as Ray could, but she can heal everyone at once. She is also able to revive party members, which makes her extremely useful in many boss fights.
Moses Sandor- Iron Eres- Moses is a harder character to balance, he attacks with a spear so he can fight at a distance, this is unique to Iron Erens. Moses is powerful, but his aim varias. Against short enemy, he is pretty much useless. But against large and flying eneimes, he is great against.
Jay- Iron Eres- Jay is a speedester. His armor, and thus, Defence are weaker than most, but this is not too much of a setback unless you're in a hard boss fight. Some of his eres have element damage, which is unusal but useful. He is also able to lower an enemy's resitance, making them a perfect target for Crystal Erens.
Grune- Crystal Eres- Grune has no healing eres whatsoever, but has a deep range of attack eres. This mean she cannot heal, but can also do major damage to enemy with a weakness against a certain element, or in general since she posses the best offensive crystal eres in the game. She is good when used with Norma and/or Jay. Norma can cast her healing on the group while Grune unleashes powerful spells. Jay can decrease an enemy's resitance so Grune and blast away at their HP.
Shirley Fennes- Crystal Eres- Shirly has a good mix of healing and attack, but is only able in the Character Quest part of the game. She is a good member to have since she can deal damage using rare eres, elements that are hard to find in the game.

Grand Master Emmanuel De Rohan Polduc was the penultimate Grand Master of the Order of St John when the Order was still in possession of the principality of Malta which it had acquired from Sicily through the joint intervention of Emperor Charles the Fifth and the Pope. De Rohan,an absolute monarch like his predecessors, ruled over Malta during very difficult times for the Order of Saint John. The French Revolution had rendered the Order redundant. De Rohan sought alliances with Russia and alternately with Great Britain. These moves only exasperated the French Republic. But when General Bonaparte finally convinced the Paris Directory to take Malta, De Rohan was already dead and the take-over was affected during the grandmastership of Ferdinand von Hompesch.

Shaheed Allah Bux Soomro
Allah Bux Soomro’s 63rd death anniversary:
The Sindhi leader who was neither a Leaguer nor a Congressman
By Hasan Mansoor
On May 14, 1943, Sindh was deprived of a man who is still revered as the province’s only undisputed political leader in the eyes of all political, nationalist and religious activists. While he died at the young age of 43, Shaheed Allah Bux Soomro’s time on this earth left a lasting impression on the people and political history of Sindh.
“It took many centuries for Sindh to [give birth] to a great son like Shaheed Allah Bux Soomro. She (Sindh) is waiting for another Allah Bux and we hope the wait is not too long,” said Sindh intellectual Taj Baloch.
Sindh vanished from the world map more than once after the British conquered it in 1843. Initially, the British had made Sind a part of the Bombay Presidency in 1847 but it took 80 years for this part of the Subcontinent to find again itself on the map in 1936. The revival of Sindh’s stature as a full province of British India ushered in many seasoned politicians but Soomro stood tallest among them all.
During his brief six-year political career in Sindh, Soomro became the first leader of the opposition and was elected twice as the premier of Sind. It is small wonder then that for politicians, Soomro was the greatest statesman this region has ever produced and for nationalists as great as the late GM Syed, Soomro was the greatest nationalist of them all.
“Today he (Soomro) is sleeping in his grave in the Panjpir graveyard. We can’t say whether he would be laughing at our condition or weeping!” the late Syed had said once.
Born in 1900, Soomro matriculated and joined his father’s business as a zamindar (landlord) and contractor. He was just 23 when he stepped into local politics and was elected to the Jacobabad Municipality and became the president of the District Local Board. He defeated an influential feudal lord in northern Sindh in 1926 and became a member of the Bombay Council and remained one for the next ten years.
In 1936, Sir Shahnawaz Bhutto and Sir Abdullah Haroon founded the Sindh Ittehad Party, which won 24 out of 33 Muhammadan (Muslim) seats in a house of 60. Soomro was one of the frontline leaders of the party and became leader of the opposition in the First Assembly of Sindh as Bhutto and Haroon lost the elections.
Sir Ghulam Hussain Hidayatullah, whose Muslim Political Party had won just five seats, was offered to form the government by Governor Sir Lancelot Graham. Sindh was not short of turncoats in those days too and there were good numbers of independent Hindu legislators who helped Sir Hidayatullah become the first premier of Sindh.
In 1938, Hidayatullah stepped down and Soomro was offered to form his government, which he successfully did with the Congress’s help. The Sukkur Barrage was established in 1932 for agriculture reforms and an organised irrigation system in Sindh. The British government had earlier allowed Sindh to pay the cost incurred on the barrage in easy installments but after Soomro assumed charge he was compelled to pay the money in a shorter time and in unaffordable installments. Soomro found no other option but to increase taxes, which eventually broke the ruling coalition that consisted of three parties and even the Ittehad Party broke in two.
Soomro abolished the old Darbar system and implemented agricultural reforms. He withdrew the magisterial powers given to the influential feudal lords and lifted the externment orders on Maulana Obaidullah Sindhi and successfully arranged for his return to became the most hated of Indians for the British rulers.
Soomro was a ‘misfit’ for many in the set-up, as his decisions for his fellow politicians were popular but not prudent. Yet, it was his popularity among the masses that has still kept his memory alive today. He was prudent for the welfare of his people and remained aloof from the prudence practiced by fellow politicians.
Soomro never bothered with official protocol. He was ‘darvesh’ for many of his rivals and one of them was Pir Ali Mohammad Rashdi who, despite differences with Soomro, called him the most honest and down-to-earth ruler of Sindh. A chapter on Soomro in Rashdi’s Sindhi book of memoirs ‘Uhay Deenhan Uhay Sheenhan’ (The days that were) is self-explanatory.
According to PV Tahilramani and KR Malkani’s book ‘The Sindh Story’: “The unassuming Allah Bux sat by the side of the driver, never used the official flag on the car bonnet, never accepted any invitation to receptions or parties. In the train he would use the upper berth and let others use the more convenient lower berth. On one occasion when floodwaters threatened Shikarpur, he breached the canal to flood his own lands and saved the city. But above all he was non-communal and nationalist.”
In 1938, Mohammad Ali Jinnah visited Karachi where he held a meeting to launch the Muslim League in Sindh. Top leaders from the Punjab and Balochistan attended along with Soomro and other Sindhi leaders. During the meeting, Premier Soomro was asked to join the League like the premiers of Bengal and Punjab who accepted after a marathon debate. In the next meeting on October 14, a number of Sindh Assembly members also joined the League. During the meeting, the new Leaguers proposed a new leader in Sindh, which Soomro opposed on the contention that when no new leaders has been elected in Bengal and the Punjab and no new premiers were introduced there, then why should this be done in Sindh.
The League’s leadership did not accept his argument and the association broke before even coming into being.
Later, the communal riots in Sukkur on Masjid Manzilgah in 1939 not only expedited the League’s efforts to dislodge Soomro but even his allies in Congress grew annoyed. Both parties jointly passed a no confidence motion against Soomro. It was only Mohammad Amin Khoso of the Congress who voted for Soomro and thus suffered party disciplinary action.
The Muslim League formed its government in Sindh for the first time after that. But it lasted only a year. Soomro became the premier again in 1941, but the League had made great inroads in Sindh during its one-year rule which was evident from the fact that now it had 400 branches in the province unlike a year ago when it had only 30.
In April 1940, soon after the League’s Lahore meeting, the Muslim League’s opponent Muslim leaders met in Delhi with Soomro in chair. This meeting contested the League’s claim of being the only party to represent the Muslims of India.
When Soomro assumed the top office again in 1941, World War II was at its peak and Congress had launched its “Quit India” agitation with a civil disobedience campaign. The congress governments in all the provinces resigned and with the support of Congress the Soomro government had only two options: Either save his government by joining forces he did not like and take action against anti-British elements or withdraw yet again. He opted for the latter.
“Convinced as I am, that India has every right to be free and that the people of India should have conditions in which they could live in peace and harmony, the declaration and actions of the British Government have made it clear that instead of giving their cooperation to the various Indian parties and communities in settling their differences and parting with power to the people of the land and allowing them to live happily in freedom and mould the destinies of their country according to their birthright, the policy of the British Government has been to continue their imperialistic hold on Indian and to persist in keeping her under subjection, to use the political and communal differences for propaganda purposes, and to crush the national forces to serve their own imperialistic aims and intentions,” Soomro said in a letter to the Viceroy of India intimating his renunciation of his title of Khanbahadur and OBE (Order of British Empire).
“The latest speech delivered by Mr Winston Churchill in the House of Commons has caused the greatest disappointment to all men of goodwill who wish to see rendered to India the justice which is long due to her.
“As that hapless pronouncement withholds such justice for India and adds to the volume of evidence that Britain has no desire to give up her imperialistic hold on India.
“I feel I cannot retain the honours I hold from the British Government, which in the circumstances that have arisen I cannot but regard as tokens of British imperialism,” said the letter written on September 19, 1942.
He renounced the honours and resigned from the Defence Council during the WW II. Later, the press asked whether he wanted to extend the hand of friendship with the Nazis and Fascists. “I believe in two things,” he had replied, “To defeat British imperialism and fight against Nazism and Fascism at the same time. It is my birthright to fight against both evils.”
On October 10, Governor Sir Hugh Dow sent a letter to the premier intimating him that he had lost confidence and thus was dismissed from office. The governor had such powers under the Government of India Act 1935.
Soomro was killed on May 14, 1943 when he was on a tonga in Shikarpur. The case was tried in a special tribunal against seven people: Qasim Mangnejo, Kamal Mangnejo, Wali Mohammad Kharal, Abdullah Noonari, Abdul Haq Bhayyo, Qambar Kasai and Ibrahim Kasai. The former three were awarded death and the latter were sentenced for life by the court on February 24, 1944. Khanbahadur Ayub Khuhro who was Soomro’s political rival was also arrested along with brother Mohammad Nawaz and tried, but the Sukkur sessions judge exonerated them for lack of evidence. Thus, the greatest murder case in the history of Sindh is still unresolved despite a lapse of 63 years.
Soomro was neither a Leaguer nor a Congressman and thus was conveniently forgotten by the rulers either side of the border. But, he is still popular among his people who have no other idol to remember but him whenever Sindh goes through a difficult time.

energy security in India
INTRODUCTION
This article will discuss energy from the point of view of the world’s and India’s demand for energy for heating, transport and manufacturing industry, etc, in the light of available resources and increasing demand, and the difficulties created as oil and gas supplies run out over the next few years.
FORMS OF ENERGY
The forms of energy include mechanical, electrical, chemical, heat, light and sound. Energy is usually experienced when it is converted from one form to another or when it is transferred from one body to another. E.g. a torch battery converts chemical energy into electrical energy, which is then converted by the bulb into light and heat energy. Table 1 Energy Resources Fuel Quantity Energy content(joules) Coal 1 tonne 2.95 × 10¹º Oil 1 barrel(0.159 m³) 5.93 × 10
1 tonne 4.3 × 10
Petrol 1 litre 3.47 × 10 Natural Gas 1 cubic metre 4.03 × 10 Electricity 1 kilowatt hour 3.60 × 10
1 megawatt year 3.15 × 10
Uranium-235 1 tonne 8 × 10
One of the fundamental laws of physics is that energy is always conserved; it is either converted from one form into another, or transferred from one body to another. It never disappears nor is it created from nothing. However, some forms of energy are more useful than others through being storable (e.g. petrol) or particularly versatile (e.g. electricity), and are therefore regarded as high-grade forms of energy. The conversion of heat from burning coal or oil into other forms (e.g. electricity or mechanical energy) for operating machines or motor cars is unfortunately inefficient. The laws of thermodynamics show that only a limited fraction can be converted, and that the rest must be ejected (wasted) at a lower temperature. Thus, even in the most efficient electricity power stations, only 30-40 per cent of the heat from the coal or oil or nuclear reactor is converted to electricity. The remaining 70-60 per cent is ejected uselessly into the atmosphere or into rivers, because it emerges at too low a temperature to be put economically to useful purposes.
The basic unit of energy is the joule. Energy must be distinguished from power, which is the rate at which energy is used, and which is measured in watts, i.e. 1 watt equals 1 joule per second. A common unit of electrical energy is the kilowatt-hour, the work done in one hour by one kilowatt, i.e. 1kWh = 3600kJ. The energy content of different fuels is (approximately) shown in table1.
RESOURCES AND DEMAND
Man used wood, peat, and coal for about 3000 years before the industrial revolution for heating, cooking and metal working. Coal fuelled the world’s industrial revolution, and only in the last fifty years has oil come into significant use and displaced coal as the principal fuel source.
These fossil fuel resources have taken 350 million years to accumulate. However, the continually increasing demand for fuel has in the case of oil led to the rate of consumption doubling approximately every 12 years during the 20th century. Such is the level of consumption now that there is a real possibility that 80 per cent of the known reserves will have been consumed between 1960 and 2020, even assuming a corresponding exponential decrease in consumption after around 2000.(Hubbert 1969)
Since oil is not only a source of heat energy, but represents a rich source of large organic molecules- the raw material of the chemical industry- exhausting this non-renewable resource in one generation is extremely wasteful, especially if 90 per cent of it is literally burnt for heat. However the decline and inadequacy of supply of a major source of fuel over the recent years is posing serious problems of how to find and switch to alternative fuels sufficiently quickly.
That the demand for energy will continue to grow may be seen by considering the correlation between annual energy consumption per capita and gross national product per capita of different countries. This suggests that increasing standards of living in developing countries will further increase the demand for energy for ore production, manufacture of materials and goods, electricity supply, transport, and agricultural developments.
Closer home, coal takes care of more than half of India’s commercial energy needs while oil and natural gas supply 40 per cent. Coal is primarily used for power generation (70 per cent) and industrial processes, whereas petroleum is the mainstay of transportation. Some quantities of petroleum derivatives such as naphtha, fuel oil and diesel are also used in power generation. Natural gas is the main feedstock for fertilisers. An equal quantity of natural gas is also consumed in combined cycle gas turbines that generate electricity and this essentially displaces fuel oil and naphtha.

(million tonnes of oil equivalent)
Coal 125.61 Lignite 4.88 Crude oil 33.80 Natural gas 20.99 Hydro power 7.12 Nuclear power 3.13 Total 195.53
Net imports 66.06 Stock changes(-) 6.54
Total commercial energy supply 254.95
ENERGY CONVERSION EFFICIENCY
A variety of means of converting energy from one form into another is essential if the limited range of primary fuels is to meet the wide ranging needs of modern society. Conversion from heat (thermal energy) to mechanical or electrical energy is unfortunately intrinsically inefficient, so that even a good modern electricity-generating power station has an efficiency of only about 40 per cent. This is not due to poor design, but due to theoretical limitations arising fro the nature of heat energy. Conversion of heat into work involves conversion of disordered motion into ordered motion, and is only partially achievable.
The transmission and distribution of energy also involves energy loss, e.g. heat losses in electricity cables, frictional energy loss in mechanical systems, energy used up in transporting coal, oil, gas etc. the overall efficiency of the electricity supply industry is thus only 27 per cent, due primarily to the thermodynamic inefficiency of the conversion process and to transmission losses.
MEETING FUTURE ENERGY NEEDS
Faced with a serious decline in oil supply from the 1990s onwards, coal and nuclear power are being widely looked to, to fill the gap. Some countries, notably Japan, France and Germany, have either very restricted coal deposits or traditionally small coal industries, or have run their coal reserves down. They and other countries are installing nuclear reactors very rapidly, despite public misgivings about disposal of long-lived radioactive wastes, possible hazards of reactor accidents releasing radioactivity etc.
However, uranium resources themselves are limited, and it is not clear whether the uranium-mining industry will be able to grow fast enough to keep pace with the demands of a rapidly expanding nuclear power industry. Uranium fuel costs are expected to increase rapidly in the near future, partly through demand, but also because as the richer deposits become exhausted, poorer grade ores would have to be used.
Energy supply based on fossil fuels and uranium suffers from two grave disadvantages: (1) the known resources are finite and non-renewable (2) because they produce their energy as heat, which can be converted only inefficiently into electricity, to achieve suitable versatility far more energy is used than is really necessary. With growing use of energy world-wide, this may produce serious climatic changes, as all this energy ultimately ends up as heat in the atmosphere.
The intolerable heat, temperature inversions, prolonged fogs and smogs around some cities, even at today’s rate of consumption, indicates the real possibilities of this.
Both these disadvantages can be avoided by utilising renewable resources, i.e, hydroelectric power, solar heating, conversion of sunlight directly into electricity via photovoltaic cells ( solar cells), energy from windmills, waves at sea, hydrogen gas produced by sunlight acting on suitable electrolytic cells, or natural gas produced from the decay of animal or vegetable waste. All these sources take energy, provided by the sun, from the atmosphere, and ultimately return it there so that they do not alter the overall energy flow into the atmosphere. The capital cost per unit of power produced tends to be higher than for fossil-based systems, but because the energy itself is supplied free by the sun, they are rapidly becoming competitive with these sources as fossil fuel costs escalate.
Owing to the variability of solar, tidal, and wind power, energy storage is needed to compensate for periods of inadequate power. This may be by batteries, pumped hydropower, flywheels, heat storage, hydrogen gas, or access to other sources. The cost of newly emerging renewable resources is quite high. The research and development (R& D) investments and activities will bring the costs down over time. The date of non-conventional backstop technologies overtaking the conventional fossil fuel based ones would depend on the price movements of fossil fuel based energy supplies which should reflect its scarcity premium. However, economy can have cheaper energy supply along conventional route over a longer horizon if the efficiency of use of energy is upgraded. In an era of renewable energy supply, too, the efficiency of energy use will determine the carrying capacity of renewable resources in terms of providing support to growing population and energy activities.
THE QUEST FOR ENERGY SECURITY
The quest for energy security is an important one in the emerging global order because of the skewed regional distribution of fossil fuels resources in the biosphere in the given context of technology and resource options as of present.
Energy security has finally moved up front for India, after having been on the backburner for decades. The country still doesn’t have a national energy policy but for some time now, it has been pursuing a series of measures that should reduce vulnerability. The need for setting up a strategic petroleum reserve has been accepted as a policy imperative. India has also been earnestly pursuing overseas oil equity. The oil and natural gas major, ONGC Videsh has been on a shopping spree acquiring oil acreages in many parts of the world.
However, a lot of ground still needs to be covered. Home to a sixth of the global population , India has a mere 0.5 per cent of the global oil reserves. This makes import dependence ineluctable. A cardinal imperative of nations in search of energy security is diversification of supply sources, fuels and even types of energy.
The versatile refining capacity added by the private sector in the post reform era, has given the country a degree of flexibility that makes it possible to source a range of crudes. Acquiring overseas oil acreages can therefore actually enhance energy security through physical deliveries as long as distances over which they need to travel are not too huge. With the oil import bill amounting to staggering $25 billion a year, every extra cent spent on the transport will have to be reckoned with.
Energy security is a daunting challenge that needs imaginative solutions. If piping gas from the neighbourhood is proving to be elusive for geo-political reasons, perhaps India could explore the possibility of setting up power plants in neighbouring countries and transporting electricity through high voltage transmission lines. Such arrangements work successfully elsewhere in the world. The national transmission utility has demonstrated its capability in laying and operating high-voltage transmission lines in difficult geographic terrain.
There can be no unique solutions for ensuring energy security. All options for diversification- of supply sources, fuels, types of energy- need to be pursued vigorously and purposively if India is to achieve its goals of development that would raise living standards for its billion plus population.

Fatter Than Albert is a third wave ska band from New Orleans, Louisiana. The band was formed in January 2004 by several members of the defunct ska group Skycopter 4. Fatter Than Albert's full line-up consists of seven full-time members, and performances by guest-musicians are commonplace during their live sets.
Fatter Than Albert gained local notoriety in New Orleans after playing alongside a long list of touring ska acts, including The Toasters, MU330, Streetlight Manifesto, Big D and the Kids Table, and the Voodoo Glow Skulls. The band toured the eastern U.S. for the first time in December 2004 and again in early summer 2005.
Fatter Than Albert released their debut self-titled EP in September 2004.
A new studio track appeared on a compilation CD entitled Murder City Underground in the fall of 2005.
Fatter Than Albert's first full-length album, Erin's Runaway Imagination, was independently released in July 2006, followed by a third tour of the U.S. east coast and midwest with fellow New Orleans ska-rock band, Samurai Deli.

Cathedral
Sources
84.210.68.149 11:05, 9 July 2006 (UTC) Cathedral is a song by Graham Nash on the third Crosby, Stills & Nash album CSN. Written after an acid trip in Winchester cathedral on his 32nd birthday, it is one of the strongest songs Nash ever wrote and is an attack on the ambigous face of Christianity. "Too many people have died in the name of Christ" is one of the lines, a strong statement, specially coming from the former member of the teenage pop group The Hollies.[reply]
The song is divided into two parts, the first one quiet and backed only by piano played by Nash himself, while the second one includes an orchestra and Nash's emotional vocal raging against Christianity.
"Cathedral" represents the highlight of Nash's songwriting and a surprise to all those who criticised him and his songwriting for being shallow and lightweight compared to Crosby, Stills and Young's.

As an outcome of the Treaty of Fez (1912) Spain had got the lands around Melilla and Ceuta in its possession. In 1920 the Spanish commissioner, General Dámaso Berenguer, decided to conquer the eastern territory from Jibala tribes. This, however, did not succeed and illequipped Spanish troops suffered a momentous defeat against the forces of Abd el-Krim, the leader of the Rif tribes. The Spanish were pushed back and during the following five years occasional battles were fought between the two.
In 1925 events took a new turn as the French joined the war on the side of Spain. Spanish army had adopted much from French foreign legion and as a result Spanish equivalent, Tercio de Extranjeros (Regiment of Foreigners), was formed in 1920. The superior man power soon resolved the course of war in favour to French and Spain. The French troops pushed through from the south while the Spanish fleet secured Alhucemas Bay and began attacking from the north. After one year of bitter resistance Abd el-Krim, the leader of both the tribes, surrendered, and in 1926 the Spanish Sahara was finally retaken.
