Canadians, what do you think of Steven Harper? | I'm willing to give Harper a chance.

I'm still counting on Harper to fix this, but it's a shame he won a minority victory, so he's got "eagles" watching him, and he can't do whatever he wants in the H of C. I'm still hopeful, though, and he's discussing this issue with his people to let him try his solutions. |
departure from the predominantly US-sourced animated films being exhibited at the time for its explicitly political content and more adult-oriented tone. Future animation production in the UK would likewise maintain a generally darker tone than U.S.-based productions. Emergence of children's TV The popularisation of television broadcasting in the UK during the 1950s brought with it both new avenues for animation production and a shift in the demographic orientation of animation to the realms of children's programming. The year 1950 saw the premier of the long-running children's TV series Watch with Mother (1950–74) which would not include animation per se, but would feature several puppet-based segments (such as "Andy Pandy" and "Flower Pot Men") that would later become staples of British children's popular imagery and animation. Such is the case as well with the children's book character Noddy, who has appeared in various iterations and with different means of animation ranging from stop-motion to CGI to this day. The BBC's investment in resources and personnel oriented to children's media during this time would also provide avenues for the service's eventual inclusion of animation—particularly stop-motion animation, which could be derived from some of the same resources and skill-sets as live action puppetry. Puppeteer Gordon Murray for example, would branch off from his work on the "Watch with Mother" segment "The Woodentops" and other live action puppet shows to create several stop motion animated children's series in the 1960s, including "Camberwick Green" (1966), "Trumpton" (1967) and "Chigley" (1969). Modelmaker Peter Firmin and writer Oliver Postgate similarly created several stop-motion animated works for children during this period, including "Pingwings" (1961–1964), "Pogles' Wood" (1966–1967) and "Clangers" (1969–1972). It is during this period that ties between the UK's children's animation and several other British media and literary tendencies consolidated, with shows of this period providing a blueprint for future children's TV focussing on rural communities and day-to-day interpersonal relationships. Within this tendency, strong ties can be seen within children's TV and much older pastoral children's literature, social realist cinema and documentary, and the theatrical comedy of manners. This transition from puppetry to stop-motion also demonstrates the influence of Eastern European animation (such as that of Czech animator Jiří Trnka and his followers), with its own proclivity for wood and felt animation puppets and often static facial features. Trnka's work helped to inspire British production companies, including Pete Bryden and Ed Cookson's BBC-commissioned stop-frame animated children's series Summerton Mill (2005). Aesthetics and influence The later impact of the music and film industries that brought the UK to the cultural fore during the 1960s and early 1970s created new markets and areas of influence for British pop culture in general, with UK-based animation benefiting as well. The 1968 animated feature film Yellow Submarine featuring characters based on The Beatles and their music and produced by London's TVC Animation, was a worldwide success, and was highly influential in the course of animation and design in subsequent years for both its incorporation of psychedelic influences and the aesthetic continuity it established between these emergent aesthetics and the modernist graphic art initially developed by the US-based studio, UPA during the last few decades. A few years later, US Animator Terry Gilliam would develop his own distinctive style of anarchic cut out animation for Monty Python's Flying Circus (1969–1974) by employing similar motifs drawn from British culture, figures and localities. This deviation from the Disney-codified squash and stretch approach of theatrical animation's golden age would similarly be a staple of Britain's boutique-driven animation culture, and would inform the more experimental films and TV segments that emerged in the following decades. In the 1970s, this experimental tendency was fostered in large part by the British television system's commitment to and experimentation with educational programming formats. "Vision On" (1964–76) for example was a show created to cater to deaf children, featuring several animated segments, as well as fostering a growing pool of animation talent. Other programs in this vein included "Take Hart", (1977-1983), a predominantly live-action educational show about art which featured some of Aardman Studio's first work, with their character Morph, who would appear in a handful of other shows as well. Other stop-motion animated programming of the 1970s included the iconic "Wombles" series, adapted from the popular children's book series. In the realm of theatrical animation, 1978 saw the release of "Watership Down", also adapted from a popular children's novel of the same name. Like many of its internationally recognised filmic predecessors, it too proved commercially successful while at the same time featuring a much darker thematic approach to the cel-animated artform than its US contemporaries. Second wave (1979–1996) The growing diversity of artistic approaches fostered during the 1970s came to fruition in the next decade, helped in some cases by funding from Channel 4 in 1982. Alison de Vere, who had made "Cafe Bar" in 1975, was one of the first independent women animators to make an impact: "Mr Pascal" (1979) gained the Grand Prix at the Annecy Festival, and her masterpiece "The Black Dog" (1987) won many awards. Other women who began to emerge during the 1970s, making films with overtly feminist and political themes, include Leeds Animation Workshop (a women's collective), founded in 1978 and still in production after more than forty years; and Vera Neubauer, also still working today after almost five decades. As a public service broadcaster formed under the remit to cater to the "tastes and interests not generally catered for" within pre-existing media, Channel 4 was a fundamental supporter of fringe media on British broadcast TV, pushing for increased representations of underexposed issues of ethnicity and sexuality, as well as fostering political critique and artistic experimentation. This, coupled with a political climate that fostered a strong cultural response from more leftist groups, provided a fertile environment for work produced by many animators who had been working on the fringes, including that of Aardman, Joanna Quinn, Alison de Vere, David Anderson, The Quay Brothers, Paul Vester, Phil Mulloy and others. In addition to providing exposure and monetary support, this fostering of fringe animators allowed many of these animators to make contact with the wider artistic and entertainment community of the UK, thereby creating strong ties in particular between animators, stand-up performers working within the alternative comedy movement, and writers and producers of live-action programming. Though much of the animated work screened by Channel 4 during this time proved too experimental for mainstream tastes, some of it would yield global commercial successes. The television animated special The Snowman, an adaptation of Raymond Briggs' children's graphic novel, again produced by TVC Animation and directed by Dianne Jackson, was a substantial popular and financial success that remains a perennial Christmas favourite. Along similar lines, it is during this time that Aardman would break through to the mainstream as well, thanks in large part to the shorts Creature Comforts (1989) and the Wallace and Gromit films, all of which were directed by Nick Park. Stop-motion would likewise continue to have a strong presence in children's TV, with Postman Pat (1981, 1996, 2004) proving a successful franchise with multiple iterations. On a related note, mechanised puppetry mixed with limited stop-motion animation would similarly continue to be used in a few very successful shows created during this time, such as Thomas the Tank Engine (1984–2008; The show would be animated in model form for 12 seasons). Cooperation and competition with US-based production companies Elsewhere in the mainstream, the UK's production culture would be further bolstered by the establishment of two US-owned studios. Walt Disney Productions established a British branch during this time that would be responsible for Who Framed Roger Rabbit in 1988, and in 1991, Steven Spielberg's Amblimation would be established as well, producing several features as well as broadcast programming, including An American Tail: Fievel Goes West (1991), We're Back! A Dinosaur Story (1993), and Balto (1995). Though technically proficient, this studio's films were largely overshadowed by the concurrent Disney Renaissance, and would be closed in 1997, with some of its staff going on to join Dreamworks Animation. In other areas of international interaction, several British animated shows produced during this time found success through syndication in the United States, including Cosgrove Hall's shows Danger Mouse (1981–1987) and Count Duckula (1988–1993), which, among others, were screened during the 1980s and early 1990s on the then-new children's cable network Nickelodeon. The US media made its presence felt in Britain during the 1990s in other ways as well. With the explosive success of The Simpsons (1989–) and the many adult-oriented animated sitcoms that followed in its wake, not only was the British public's relationship to animation altered, so too was that of Britain's TV companies, which for their part saw the potential to generate substantial income from prime-time animated media franchises. Though Channel 4 would as such abandon its remit for fringe media in the wake of the emergence of both a less confrontational political climate during the 1990s and new narrowcasting platforms such as Sky TV (launched in 1993), the mantle of supporting animation would in turn be taken up by the wider commercial media. Third wave (1997–present) The late 1990s brought with them substantial changes to the British cultural and media environment. Politically, the rise of New Labour would mean a softening of leftist dissidence in alternative comedy and experimental animation. At the same time, the new government's embracing of third way politics would mean that, while it would adopt several left-leaning policies with regard to social welfare, it also embraced the market deregulation begun under the previous Conservative administration and allow broadcasters to further re-prioritise commercial interests over what was once a media environment much more directed by a public broadcasting agenda. The Broadcasting act of 1990 had already rendered Channel 4 a self-funding entity, thus making monetary profit a new priority for the broadcaster. The after effects of these changes would be at the fore of the newly established status quo of animation production, circulation and consumption. The emergence of new sources of competition in this area only accentuated this shift — particularly in the realm of children's programming, which thanks to the Sky TV system, would for the first time bring entire channels of US and international TV content to the British mediascape. With regard to children's TV (the single most concentrated sector of animated media), this would occur at first with the incursion of Nickelodeon in 1993, then Disney Channel in 1995, and Cartoon Network | the same name.

of alliance between France and the Kingdom of Serbia, Kingdom of Yugoslavia was a strong follower of the French political strategies in the interwar period Central Europe. Yugoslavia Bastille Day was celebrated annually and became a means to commemorate the French lives lost in the Balkans during the World War I. Declaration of Franco-Yugoslav friendship was signed in Belgrade on 11 November 1927 and war ratified in Paris on the same day. In 1928, quoting inopportune timing, French government rejected Yugoslav general staff proposal for a military conversation. On 11 November 1930 Monument of Gratitude to France was opened on the Belgrade Fortress. Following the French participation in the Four-Power Pact pro-French states started to look after their own security instead of excessive reliance on France and on February 9, 1934 Greece, Rumania, Turkey, and Yugoslavia signed the Balkan Pact. Economic cooperation was nevertheless limited and decreasing which in 1934 led to fact that France ranked sixth among suppliers and eleventh among trade customers of Yugoslavia. Yugoslav king Alexander I of Yugoslavia and French Foreign Minister Louis Barthou were assassinated in Marseilles during his 9 October 1934 state visit to France. The League of Nations stated that "certain Hungarian authorities may have assumed at any rate through negligence, certain responsibilities relative to | or significantly strained while Yugoslavia reoriented its policy towards European neutral countries and eventually to close cooperation with Non-Aligned countries. In 1951-1954 period France, together with United States and United Kingdom participated in the Tripartite Aid programme for Yugoslavia. France's National Assembly ended its participation in the program in 1953 led to a diminishment in its influence in Yugoslavia. During the Algerian War Yugoslavia provided significant logistical and diplomatic support to the Algerian side which affected its relations with France. France believed that the close link between Egypt and Yugoslavia would continue to influence strongly its policy towards Algeria. Yugoslavia officially recognized the independence of Algeria on 5 September 1961 as the first country in Europe to do so. Relations started to improve once again after the 1966 and in 1969 Tito even invited France to attend the Non-Aligned Conference. Despite disagreements over Algeria France recognized mediator role which Non-Aligned Yugoslavia (country without colonial past) can play between France and newly independent African countries. Two nations established a Franco-Yugoslav chamber of commerce in Paris in June 1970. Breakup of Yugoslavia Contemporary commentators interpreted President of France François Mitterrand's policy during the Yugoslav crisis as being based upon a fear of a resurgent reunified Germany and an historical friendship with Serbia. French diplomacy nevertheless stressed the primacy of a unified common European approach in order not to threaten the Maastricht Treaty nor the national referendum on its passing in September 1992 and was therefore willing to follow the German insistence on Croatian and Slovenian independence.

group released a popular song titled "Angelina" which coincided with the cloth. It was originally worn by the Hausa of northern Ghana for traditional functions, and with time, it became a part of the Ghanaian culture as a whole. Wedding colors Grey is the traditional color for some West African weddings. Some grooms wear white dashiki suits during wedding ceremonies. Some couples wear non-traditional colors. The most common non-traditional colors are purple and blue. Purple and lavender: the color of African royalty. Blue: blue is the color of love, peace, and harmony. Funeral colors Black and red are the traditional colors of mourning. In the United States The dashiki found a market in America during the Civil Rights Movement and Black Power movement. The term dashiki began appearing in print at least as early as 1967. Reporting on the 1967 Newark riots in the Amsterdam News on July 22, 1967, George Barner refers to a new African garment called a "danshiki". An article by Faith Berry in The New York Times Magazine includes it on July 7, 1968. Dashiki formally appeared in the Webster's New World Dictionary, 1st College Edition of 1970/72. It cites J. Benning with the first written usage of the word in 1967. J. Benning, M. Clarke, H. Davis and W. Smith were founders of New Breed of Harlem in Manhattan, New York City, the first manufacturer of the garment in the United States. The dashiki was featured in the movies Uptight (1968), Putney Swope (1969), and the weekly television series Soul Train (1971). In the Sanford and Son episode "Lamont Goes African" features Sanford's son Lamont wearing a Dashiki as part of his attempt to return to his African roots. Jim Brown, Wilt Chamberlain, Sammy Davis Jr., and Bill Russell were among the well-known African-American athletes and entertainers who wore | Africa. It is also known as a Kitenge in East Africa and is a common item of clothing in Tanzania, Kenya and Somalia. It has formal and informal versions and varies from simple draped clothing to fully tailored suits. A common form is a loose-fitting pullover garment, with an ornate V-shaped collar, and tailored and embroidered neck and sleeve lines. It is frequently worn with a brimless Kufi cap (which is worn in Islamic communities in Africa and the African diaspora) and pants. It has been popularized and claimed by communities in the African diaspora, especially African Americans. The name dashiki or "dyshque" is from the Yoruba , a loanword from the Hausa , literally meaning 'shirt' or 'inner garment' (as compared to the outer garment, babban riga). Versions The informal version of the dashiki is a traditional print or embroidered dashiki. Three formal versions exist. The first type consists of a dashiki, sokoto (drawstring trousers), and a matching kufi. This style is called a dashiki suit or dashiki trouser set and it is the attire worn by most grooms during wedding ceremonies. The second version consists of an ankle-length shirt, matching kufi, and sokoto and is called a Senegalese kaftan. The third type consists of a dashiki and matching trousers. A flowing gown is worn over these. This type is called a grand boubou or an agbada. There are several different styles of dashiki suits available from clothing stores. The type of shirt included in the set determines the name. The traditional dashiki suit includes a thigh-length shirt. The short sleeve, traditional style is preferred by purists. A long dashiki suit includes a shirt that is knee-length or longer. However, if the shirt reaches the ankles, it is a Senegalese kaftan. Finally, the lace dashiki suit includes a shirt made of lace.

How much did the average person's life change after the American Revolution? | In "The Radicalism of the American Revolution" (Gordon Wood) he argues the opposite. He claims that the Revolution completely changed American society by establishing a sense of egalitarianism that was directly linked with the new political system. He says that the Revolution created a whole new environment in the Americas that transformed what were underpopulated backwaters in 1760 into the expansion and progress minded country of the early 19th century. The focus of the government shifted to focus on the needs of the people. On a side note, the system of having the state legislatures choose Senators was meant to be a check on the Federal government's powers. |
Alliance. History The original Crusaders group was formed in 1900 in north London by Rev Albert Kestin, with the intention of teaching the Bible to young people who did not attend church. Several similar groups started in the years that following and in 1906, under the leadership of Herbert Bevington, the leaders of eleven groups voted to form the Crusaders’ Union as an umbrella organisation. By 1939 there were 256 groups. In 2006, the organisation became known as Urban Saints. The name was revealed at a concert at the Royal Albert Hall to celebrate the centenary of the Crusaders’ Union. In 2000, Matt Summerfield became chief executive. Since then, the organisation has developed Energize, online resources, discipleship activities, discussions and videos for youth and | own Urban Saints Westbrook, a residential centre and campsite on the Isle of Wight. This site has been in operation since 1948.

In an electronic circuit, how is it possible to have a current source? | From an engineering point of view, a current source, just like a voltage source, involves a control circuit. The power supply measures the current coming out of it, and increases the power to the output when the current is too low, or decreases it when the current is too high. This increase/decrease can be done as an increase/decrease in voltage, but the point is that the aspect being controlled and used in feedback is the current. |

Galaxy was observed 420 million years after the Big Bang .
found by NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope, Spitzer Space Telescope, and one of nature’s own natural 'zoom lenses' in space. | PUBLISHED: . 06:09 EST, 16 November 2012 . | . UPDATED: . 07:11 EST, 16 November 2012 . Researcher have identified the furthest ever galaxy discovered in space - a staggering 13.3 billion light-years from Earth. The galaxy was observed around 420 million years after the Big Bang when the universe was just 3 per cent of its current age. Astronomers have calculated the galaxy is a 13.3 billion light-years from Earth with a single light-year representing 5,878,625 million miles. Scroll down for video . The newly discovered galaxy, named MACS0647-JD, is very young and only a tiny fraction of the size of our Milky Way. The object was observed 420 million years after the big bang . The object is so small it may be in the first stages of galaxy formation, with analysis showing the galaxy is less than 600 light-years across. For comparison the Milky Way is 150 000 light-years across. The estimated mass of this baby galaxy is roughly equal to 100 million or a billion suns, or 0.1 - 1 percent the mass of our Milky Way’s stars. It was spotted using NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope, Spitzer Space Telescope, and one of nature’s own natural 'zoom lenses' in space. Scientists say the object is in the first stages of galaxy formation with analysis showing it is less than 600 light-years across. Our galaxy, the Milky Way, is 150,000 light-years across with the Solar System a third of the age of the newly discovered galaxy. Dan Coe, from the Space Telescope Science Institute, said. 'This object may be one of many building blocks of a galaxy. 'Over the next 13 billion years, it may have dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of merging events with other galaxies and galaxy fragments.' Galaxy Cluster MACS J0647, where the latest galaxy was spotted . Coe and his collaborators spent months ruling out alternative explanations for the object’s identity - such as red stars, brown dwarfs, and red galaxies - to conclude it was a very distant galaxy. The object, named MACS0647-JD, is the latest discovery from a programme which uses natural zoom lenses to reveal distant galaxies in the early universe. The Cluster Lensing And Supernova survey with Hubble (CLASH) is using massive galaxy clusters as cosmic telescopes to magnify distant galaxies behind them, an effect called gravitational lensing. Rychard Bouwens, from Leiden University, Holland, said: 'While one occasionally expects to find an extremely distant galaxy using the tremendous power of gravitational lensing, this latest discovery has outstripped even my expectations of what would be possible with the CLASH program.“The science output in this regard has been incredible.' |
