'Twas sunset: When the sun will part There comes a sullenness of heart To him who still would look upon The glory of the summer sun. That soul will hate the ev'ning mist So often lovely, and will list To the sound of the coming darkness (known To those whose spirits hearken) as one Who, in a dream of night, _would_ fly, But _cannot_, from a danger nigh. What tho' the moon--tho' the white moon Shed all the splendor of her noon, _Her_ smile is chilly--and _her_ beam, In that time of dreariness, will seem (So like you gather in your breath) A portrait taken after death. And boyhood is a summer sun Whose waning is the dreariest one-- For all we live to know is known, And all we seek to keep hath flown-- Let life, then, as the day-flower, fall With the noon-day beauty--which is all. I reached my home--my home no more-- For all had flown who made it so. I passed from out its mossy door, And, tho' my tread was soft and low, A voice came from the threshold stone Of one whom I had earlier known-- O, I defy thee, Hell, to show On beds of fire that burn below, An humbler heart--a deeper woe.

{"idx": 1, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "Former prosecutor Michael Mazzariello was finally doing the kind of legal work he'd always dreamed of, but after less than a year of helping East New York's poor, he's getting booted from the bodega he turned into an office. Nearly a year ago, Mazzariello, a former assistant district attorney who grew up in East New York, started a nonprofit practice helping the working poor navigate the legal system. Immigration, landlord-tenant disputes and even criminal cases are the specialty of his East New York Legal Services Corp. on New Lots Ave. The office, in a former bodega, was Mazzariello's idea, and he got some help from high places early on. \"I picked up the phone and called Rudy Giuliani on his radio program,\" Mazzariello said. \"I said, 'Mr. Mayor, we're interested in renting space in a building the city owns. \"I swear, within an hour, the building was ours. We filled out all the paperwork. We got the nonprofit status from the feds. We were rolling.\" Refusing to charge clients, Mazzariello, 42, said he used his family's savings to sustain the office during the first year. Already recognized as a federal nonprofit, the agency is awaiting state status that would allow it to survive on charitable donations. \"This is what I want to do - to give back to the community,\" said Mazzariello, who worked under Brooklyn District Attorney Charles Hynes from 1990 to 1993, followed by a stint as the Board of Education's chief prosecutor. Under the city Housing Preservation and Development Department's tenant ownership program, Mazzariello and partner Joe Guzzo learned they could rent to own. They invested $8,500 in a new facade, rest room makeover and other modest improvements.

I dodged, but he tossed it, and I held the box in front of my face. The blade lodged in the wood, its silver point penetrating the velvet and nearly reaching my skin. My arms shook from the force of his throw. Then he landed heavy beside me and I scrambled to stand. His first move pulled out the dagger, almost wrenching my arms from their sockets as I held on to the box, and the second shattered the box with a crushing punch that sent me reeling backwards. I dropped the splinters and the broken second stake and raised my hammer, ready to drive the ash spike into his heart. Behind him, I saw Nepthys running between the pews. I braced my legs against the stone floor and he was on me. I raised the stake; he drew back the dagger for a slash that could doubtless open my neck from throat to spine. The stake went down, there was a blur, and then my hands were empty and I felt pain under my jaw. Two points of fire opened in my throat for an instant, then all went numb. Taste, hearing and touch became a single blur, and I do not know if my eyes were open. My mind began to dissipate, but then I felt the pain withdraw and a lifeless voice said, \"This one's blood isn't worth drinking.\" Hands closed on my neck and I felt my spine crack. I must have fallen to the floor then. I could perceive Nepthys' sword flashing over me, and I heard steel crack, then bone. I thought I heard Rachel's voice blearily calling for me.

{"idx": 7, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "On January 25, Tenet briefed the President on the Cole investigation. The written briefing repeated for top officials of the new administration what the CIA had told the Clinton White House in November. This included the \"preliminary judgment\" that al Qaeda was responsible, with the caveat that no evidence had yet been found that Bin Laden himself ordered the attack. Tenet told us he had no recollection of a conversation with the President about this briefing. In his January 25 memo, Clarke had advised Rice that the government should respond to the Cole attack, but \"should take advantage of the policy that 'we will respond at a time, place and manner of our own choosing' and not be forced into knee-jerk responses.\" Before Vice President Cheney visited the CIA in mid-February, Clarke sent him a memo-outside the usual White House document-management system-suggesting that he ask CIA officials \"What additional information is needed before CIA can definitively conclude that al-Qida was responsible\" for the Cole. In March 2001, the CIA's briefing slides for Rice were still describing the CIA's \"preliminary judgment\" that a \"strong circumstantial case\" could be made against al Qaeda but noting that the CIA continued to lack \"conclusive information on external command and control\" of the attack. Clarke and his aides continued to provide Rice and Hadley with evidence reinforcing the case against al Qaeda and urging action. The President explained to us that he had been concerned lest an ineffectual air strike just serve to give Bin Laden a propaganda advantage. He said he had not been told about Clinton administration warnings to the Taliban. The President told us that he had concluded that the United States must use ground forces for a job like this. Rice told us that there was never a formal, recorded decision not to retaliate specifically for the Cole attack. Exchanges with the President, between the President and Tenet, and between herself and Powell and Rumsfeld had produced a consensus that \"tit-for-tat\" responses were likely to be counterproductive. This had been the case, she thought, with the cruise missile strikes of August 1998. The new team at the Pentagon did not push for action. On the contrary, Rumsfeld thought that too much time had passed and his deputy, Paul Wolfowitz, thought that the Cole attack was \"stale.\" Hadley said that in the end, the administration's real response to the Cole would be a new, more aggressive strategy against al Qaeda.

{"idx": 10, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "The recent death of the \"snake-handling\" pastor of a small Pentecostal church in Kentucky has raised an age-old conflict between church and state. Jamie Coots, the pastor of the Full Gospel Tabernacle in Jesus Name in Middlesboro, Kentucky, died after being bitten on his right hand by a rattlesnake during a weekend church service where he was handling rattlesnakes willingly, it seems. It has been reported that the late pastor's son Cody Coots has continued the snake-handling tradition even after his father's death. People handle snakes at church for the same reason that people do lots of things: the Bible tells them so. \"And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.\" Mark 16:17-18 This biblical passage is the genesis of serpent-handling for churches of the Holiness movement and the Pentecostal Church of God. For the faithful, those two verses are the authority for dancing with or passing around poisonous snakes during church services. Moreover, if bitten, they are likely to refuse medical treatment and rely upon God to heal them. There's just one problem with this Biblical authority. Another authority, known as the Commonwealth of Kentucky. In Kentucky, the practice is illegal. Well, barely. Under the applicable section KRS \u00c2\u00a7437.060, any person who displays, handles or uses a snake in connection with any religious gathering shall be fined $50 to 100. Hardly a capital offense. The Kentucky legislature has sent a message: poisonous snake-handling is marginally illegal -- but not as illegal as drugs or other crimes. The legislature's assigned penalty appears to fall somewhere between a speeding ticket and an overdue library book.

He also had two Macedonian princes from the region of Lyncestis killed, but spared a third, Alexander Lyncestes. Olympias had Cleopatra Eurydice and Europa, her daughter by Philip, burned alive. When Alexander learned about this, he was furious. Alexander also ordered the murder of Attalus, who was in command of the advance guard of the army in Asia Minor and Cleopatra's uncle. Attalus was at that time corresponding with Demosthenes, regarding the possibility of defecting to Athens. Attalus also had severely insulted Alexander, and following Cleopatra's murder, Alexander may have considered him too dangerous to leave alive. Alexander spared Arrhidaeus, who was by all accounts mentally disabled, possibly as a result of poisoning by Olympias. News of Philip's death roused many states into revolt, including Thebes, Athens, Thessaly, and the Thracian tribes north of Macedon. When news of the revolts reached Alexander, he responded quickly. Though advised to use diplomacy, Alexander mustered 3,000 Macedonian cavalry and rode south towards Thessaly. He found the Thessalian army occupying the pass between Mount Olympus and Mount Ossa, and ordered his men to ride over Mount Ossa. When the Thessalians awoke the next day, they found Alexander in their rear and promptly surrendered, adding their cavalry to Alexander's force. He then continued south towards the Peloponnese. Alexander stopped at Thermopylae, where he was recognized as the leader of the Amphictyonic League before heading south to Corinth. Athens sued for peace and Alexander pardoned the rebels.

{"idx": 13, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "Free Legal advice is only a phone call away - and the hot lines that provide it are expanding their services. It's a little known perk available to anyone 60 or older: 21 states, Washington D.C., and Puerto Rico operate legal-assistance hot lines for older adults and most take calls from younger caregivers as well. Volunteers offer advice on legal questions, provide self-help materials, and make referrals to legal aid offices and pro bono or reduced-fee private lawyers. Even if you live in a state without a hot line, local agencies on aging will provide you with referrals to nearby lawyers. The hot lines and referral services tackle estate planning, pension, and health benefits, elder abuse and neglect, guardianship custodial issues involving grandchildren, consumer protection and other elder-law issues. The U.S. administration on Aging coordinates this loosely knit legal-services network. Anyone who meets the age requirement can call the hot line, but hands-on legal counsel goes first to people with the greatest financial or social needs. The federal Agency recently awarded $2 million in grants to improve elder-law services, with the largest part being used to bolster 12 hotlines around the country, some of which are adding Web-based questionnaires and outreach projects in rural areas and for older people who don't speak English. For a list of where the hotlines operate, along with their phone numbers and hours, go to www.aoa.gov/legal/hotline.html, or call the federal Eldercare Locator at 800-677-1116. If you live in a state without a hot line, the locator can point you to local legal assistance. Another source of low-cost help also expanded this year: AARP's Legal Services Network is now available in 46 states and expects to reach all 50 by the end of March. You have to pay the group's dues ($10 a year) to use the services; after that you get 30 minutes of legal counseling, either face-to-face or by phone, at no cost. Lawyers discount their usual rate by 20% after that. Simple wills cost $75 apiece. You can reach the service at 800-424-3410 or go to www.aarp.org/LSN to find a lawyer nearby.

The American ace started his back nine with straight birdies and as the rain came down he continued his fine progress. Two birdies came in his final three holes, sandwiching his sole bogey on the day.

Each type of leaf is well suited for the plants environment. It maximizes light exposure while conserving water. They also reduces wind resistance. Leaves also benefit the plant in some other way in its particular habitat. For example, some leaves are divided into many smaller leaflets. This reduces wind resistance and water loss. Leaves are basically factories for photosynthesis. A factory has specialized machines to produce a product. In a leaf, the 'machines' are the chloroplasts. A factory is connected to a transportation system that supplies it with raw materials and carries away the finished product. In a leaf, transport is carried out by veins containing vascular tissue.

Not only is he seen as having originated the highly nuanced level of language which characterizes Russian literature after him, but he is also credited with substantially augmenting the Russian lexicon.

His accomplishments set new records for development of the Russian language and culture. He became the father of Russian literature in the 19th century, marking the highest achievements of 18th century and the beginning of literary process of the 19th century. Alexander Pushkin introduced Russia to all the European literary genres as well as a great number of West European writers. He brought natural speech and foreign influences to create modern poetic Russian. Though his life was brief, he left examples of nearly every literary genre of his day: lyric poetry, narrative poetry, the novel, the short story, the drama, the critical essay, and even the personal letter. Pushkin's work as a journalist marked the birth of Russian magazine culture which included him devising and contributing heavily to one of the most influential literary magazines of the 19th century, the Sovremennik (The Contemporary, or Sovremennik). Pushkin inspired the folk tales and genre pieces of other authors: Leskov, Esenin, and Gorky. His use of Russian language formed the basis of the style of novelists Ivan Turgenev, Ivan Goncharov, and Leo Tolstoy, as well as that of subsequent lyric poets such as Mikhail Lermontov.

The maxim was, that whoever possessed the coast had a right to all the territory in hand as far as the Pacific; so that the British charters only laid down the limits of the colonies from north to south, leaving them quite free from east to west. The French, meanwhile, had their colonies to the north and south, and aimed at connecting them by the Mississippi and the St. Lawrence, and the great intermediate lakes and waters lying to the westward of the British possessions. In the year 1748, though peace was signed between the two European kingdoms, the colonial question remained unsettled, to be opened again when either party should be strong enough to urge it. In the year 1753 it came to an issue on the Ohio River where the British and French settlers met.

It is much more dramatic than what happens to your hand. You can see how it occurs in the following diagram. You have probably seen lightning in a rainstorm.

This happens due to the movement of air molecules, water drops, and ice particles. The negative charges are mostly at the base of the clouds. The positive charges are mostly at the top.

Rice asked about \"taking the offensive\" and whether any approach could be made to influence Bin Laden or the Taliban. Clarke and Black replied that the CIA's ongoing disruption activities were \"taking the offensive\" and that Bin Laden could not be deterred. A wide-ranging discussion then ensued about \"breaking the back\" of Bin Laden's organization. Tenet emphasized the ambitious plans for covert action that the CIA had developed in December 2000. In discussing the draft authorities for this program in March, CIA officials had pointed out that the spending level envisioned for these plans was larger than the CIA's entire current budget for counterterrorism covert action. It would be a multiyear program, requiring such levels of spending for about five years. The CIA official, \"Richard,\" told us that Rice \"got it.\" He said she agreed with his conclusions about what needed to be done, although he complained to us that the policy process did not follow through quickly enough. Clarke and Black were asked to develop a range of options for attacking Bin Laden's organization, from the least to most ambitious. Rice and Hadley asked Clarke and his staff to draw up the new presidential directive. On June 7, Hadley circulated the first draft, describing it as \"an admittedly ambitious\" program for confronting al Qaeda. The draft NSPD's goal was to \"eliminate the al Qida network of terrorist groups as a threat to the United States and to friendly governments.\" It called for a multiyear effort involving diplomacy, covert action, economic measures, law enforcement, public diplomacy, and if necessary military efforts. The State Department was to work with other governments to end all al Qaeda sanctuaries, and also to work with the Treasury Department to disrupt terrorist financing. The CIA was to develop an expanded covert action program including significant additional funding and aid to anti-Taliban groups. The draft also tasked OMB with ensuring that sufficient funds to support this program were found in U.S. budgets from fiscal years 2002 to 2006. Rice viewed this draft directive as the embodiment of a comprehensive new strategy employing all instruments of national power to eliminate the al Qaeda threat.

A short time later, Nawaf and Salem al Hazmi entered the same checkpoint. Salem al Hazmi cleared the metal detector and was permitted through; Nawaf al Hazmi set off the alarms for both the first and second metal detectors and was then hand-wanded before being passed. In addition, his over-the-shoulder carry-on bag was swiped by an explosive trace detector and then passed.

In the Harbor channels the torpedoes were so arranged as to be exploded on contact of an enemy's vessel with a partially submerged buoy.

This process leads to the development of what can be broadly termed culture: a group of people joined by characteristics, traits, and beliefs comes to view themselves as sharing a distinct identity, discernible from that of those \"outside\" them, those who do not belong. Naturally this can be signaled by any number of things - clothing, food, lifestyle choices. One of the most dominant and easily noted factors is language. The command of a language, while not affording guaranteed access to the community which speaks it, is often the key to gaining entry. In turn communal identity can be formed around a language; it is used as the focal point around which the group gathers. Therefore when considering the indigenous revitalization movements which began in 20th century Latin America, the impact of those indigenous languages on those movements and the nature of the identity of the peoples themselves is key. Language plays a complex and integral role in the development and redefinition of an identity, particularly when that identity has been oppressed and subsumed by a dominant other for as long as that of the indigenous peoples in Latin America has. In particular I will examine two divergent yet remarkably parallel cases, that of the Maya in Guatemala and the Nasa and Guambiano peoples of Colombia. Their struggle to attain status in societies still bearing the marks of Spanish colonialism is deeply tied to their struggle to reaffirm the nature of their \"indigenous identity\", and is in turn linked to the interaction of Spanish and their native languages.

Later that day, your friend shouts to you across the football field. Now his voice is very loud. You have no problem hearing him clearly even though hes many meters away. Obviously, sounds can vary in loudness. Loudness refers to how loud or soft a sound seems to a listener. The loudness of sound is related to the intensity of sound. Intensity is a measure of the amount of energy in sound waves. The unit of intensity is the decibel (dB). The intensity of sound waves determines the loudness of sounds, but what determines intensity? Intensity is a function of two factors. First, the amount of energy contained in the sound waves. Second, how far away you are from the source of the sound. Remember that sound waves start at a source of vibrations. Those sound waves spread out from the source in all directions. The farther the sound waves travel away from the source, the more spread out their energy becomes.

Durer worked with pen on the marginal images for an edition of the Emperor's printed Prayer-Book; these were quite unknown until facsimiles were published in 1808 as part of the first book published in lithography. Durer's work on the book was halted for an unknown reason, and the decoration was continued by artists including Lucas Cranach the Elder and Hans Baldung.

{"idx": 41, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "F. Dianne Taylor is executive director of Legal Services of Eastern Missouri. We're all familiar with the Miranda warning, or at least how it sounds in the movies. It includes the statement: \"You have the right to speak to an attorney and to have an attorney present during any questioning. If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be provided for you at government expense.\" The Miranda warning, though, applies only to criminal cases. What about the less theatrical, but equally troubling, civil problems that can afflict people in any walk of life? U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has estimated that four out of every five low-income people in America who need legal representation don't receive it. That is a sobering observation, to realize that 80 percent of those who need legal help are denied such guidance and counsel. Who are these people? They may be victims of domestic abuse. Perhaps they are elderly people who are swindled out of their life savings or beaten by a neighbor or acquaintance. Maybe they are homeless children who can't attend school because they aren't officially residents of a district. They are our neighbors, our friends, our colleagues. Facing eviction or physical assault or bankruptcy without legal assistance can be every bit as frightening as standing trial on a criminal charge. Issues in civil cases include family matters, housing and employment cases, consumer protection, public benefits and income maintenance. In the year 2000 alone, Legal Services of Eastern Missouri fielded some 30,000 calls for assistance from low-income people in the 21 counties our not-for-profit organization represents. By contrast, approximately 6,500 cases were closed by the organization last year.

{"idx": 42, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "Alexander then chased Darius, first into Media, and then Parthia. The Persian king no longer controlled his own destiny, and was taken prisoner by Bessus, his Bactrian satrap and kinsman. As Alexander approached, Bessus had his men fatally stab the Great King and then declared himself Darius' successor as Artaxerxes V, before retreating into Central Asia to launch a guerrilla campaign against Alexander. Alexander buried Darius' remains next to his Achaemenid predecessors in a regal funeral. He claimed that, while dying, Darius had named him as his successor to the Achaemenid throne. The Achaemenid Empire is normally considered to have fallen with Darius. Alexander viewed Bessus as a usurper and set out to defeat him. This campaign, initially against Bessus, turned into a grand tour of central Asia. Alexander founded a series of new cities, all called Alexandria, including modern Kandahar in Afghanistan, and Alexandria Eschate (\"The Furthest\") in modern Tajikistan. The campaign took Alexander through Media, Parthia, Aria (West Afghanistan), Drangiana, Arachosia (South and Central Afghanistan), Bactria (North and Central Afghanistan), and Scythia. Spitamenes, who held an undefined position in the satrapy of Sogdiana, in 329 BC betrayed Bessus to Ptolemy, one of Alexander's trusted companions, and Bessus was executed. However, when, at some point later, Alexander was on the Jaxartes dealing with an incursion by a horse nomad army, Spitamenes raised Sogdiana in revolt.

All Mrs. Hamilton's business is in his hands, and it is generally thought that he will receive a handsome legacy from her eventually. Mrs. Barclay prefers to live in Pentonville, but Ben often visits her. Whenever he goes to Pentonville he never fails to call on Rose Gardiner, now a beautiful young lady of marriageable age. She has lost none of her partiality for Ben, and it is generally understood that they are engaged. I have reason to think that the rumor is correct and that Rose will change her name to Barclay within a year. Nothing could be more agreeable to Mrs. Barclay, who has long looked upon Rose as a daughter. Tom Davenport is now in the city, but his course is far from creditable. His father has more than once been compelled to pay his debts, and has angrily refused to do so again. In fact, he has lost a large part of his once handsome fortune, and bids fair to close his life in penury. Success has come to Ben because he deserved it, and well-merited retribution to Tom Davenport. Harvey Dinsmore, once given over to evil courses, has redeemed himself, and is a reputable business man in New York. Mrs. Hamilton still lives, happy in the success of her protege. Conrad and his mother have tried more than once to regain their positions in her household, but in vain. None of my young readers will pity them. They are fully rewarded for their treachery.

{"idx": 47, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "During the short transition, Rice and Hadley concentrated on staffing and organizing the NSC. Their policy priorities differed from those of the Clinton administration. Those priorities included China, missile defense, the collapse of the Middle East peace process, and the Persian Gulf. Generally aware that terrorism had changed since the first Bush administration, they paid particular attention to the question of how counterterrorism policy should be coordinated. Rice had asked University of Virginia history professor Philip Zelikow to advise her on the transition. Hadley and Zelikow asked Clarke and his deputy, Roger Cressey, for a special briefing on the terrorist threat and how Clarke'sTransnationalThreats Directorate and Counterterrorism Security Group functioned. In the NSC during the first Bush administration, many tough issues were addressed at the level of the Deputies Committee. Issues did not go to the principals unless the deputies had been unable to resolve them. Presidential Decision Directive 62 of the Clinton administration had said specifically that Clarke's Counterterrorism Security Group should report through the Deputies Committee or, at Berger's discretion, directly to the principals. Berger had in practice allowed Clarke's group to function as a parallel deputies committee, reporting directly to those members of the Principals Committee who sat on the special Small Group. There, Clarke himself sat as a de facto principal. Rice decided to change the special structure that had been built to coordinate counterterrorism policy. It was important to sound policymaking, she felt, that Clarke's interagency committee-like all others-report to the principals through the deputies. Rice made an initial decision to hold over both Clarke and his entire counterterrorism staff, a decision that she called rare for a new administration. She decided also that Clarke should retain the title of national counterterrorism coordinator, although he would no longer be a de facto member of the Principals Committee on his issues. The decision to keep Clarke, Rice said, was \"not uncontroversial,\" since he was known as someone who \"broke China,\" but she and Hadley wanted an experienced crisis manager. No one else from Berger's staff had Clarke's detailed knowledge of the levers of government. 168 Clarke was disappointed at what he perceived as a demotion.

{"idx": 48, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "Teams from the FBI, the Naval Criminal Investigative Service, and the CIA were immediately sent to Yemen to investigate the attack. With difficulty, Barbara Bodine, the U.S. ambassador to Yemen, tried to persuade the Yemeni government to accept these visitors and allow them to carry arms, though the Yemenis balked at letting Americans openly carry long guns (rifles, shotguns, automatic weapons). Meanwhile, Bodine and the leader of the FBI team, John O'Neill, clashed repeatedly-to the point that after O'Neill had been rotated out of Yemen but wanted to return, Bodine refused the request. Despite the initial tension, the Yemeni and American investigations proceeded. Within a few weeks, the outline of the story began to emerge. On the day of the Cole attack, a list of suspects was assembled that included al Qaeda's affiliate Egyptian Islamic Jihad. U.S. counterterrorism officials told us they immediately assumed that al Qaeda was responsible. But as Deputy DCI John McLaughlin explained to us, it was not enough for the attack to smell, look, and taste like an al Qaeda operation. To make a case, the CIA needed not just a guess but a link to someone known to be an al Qaeda operative. Within the first weeks after the attack, the Yemenis found and arrested both Badawi and Quso, but did not let the FBI team participate in the interrogations. The CIA described initial Yemeni support after the Cole as \"slow and inadequate.\" President Clinton, Secretary Albright, and DCI Tenet all intervened to help. Because the information was secondhand, the U.S. team could not make its own assessment of its reliability. On November 11, the Yemenis provided the FBI with new information from the interrogations of Badawi and Quso, including descriptions of individuals from whom the detainees had received operational direction. One of them was Khallad, who was described as having lost his leg. The detainees said that Khallad helped direct the Cole operation from Afghanistan or Pakistan.

The postwar period began, however, with millions of displaced people homeless and starving. To counter a perceived communist threat from the Soviet Union, the US quickly set to work reconstructing the economy by transforming Japan\u2019s institutions and devising a new pacifist constitution. Article 9 renounced Japan\u2019s right to maintain armed forces, although the ambiguous wording was later taken to permit the creati on of a \u201cself-defense\u201d force. The zaibatsu conglomerates that had proved so instrumental in boosting Japan\u2019s militarism were disbanded, later to re-emerge as the keiretsu trading conglomerates that dominated the economy once again. The entire economy received a massive jump-start with the outbreak of the Korean War, with Japan ironically becoming the chief local supplier for an army it had battled so furiously just a few years earlier. The occupation lasted until 1952, having already planted the seeds for Japan\u2019s future stunning economic success. Economic output was back to prewar levels, and British auto companies provided the support needed to get Japan\u2019s auto industry back on its feet. Japanese companies then enthusiastically imported any Western technologies they could get their hands on. This included transistor technology\u2002\u2014\u2002invented in the US but then considered to have only limited applications\u2002\u2014\u2002for the surreal sum of $25,000. It was Japan that produced the world\u2019s first transistor radio. The electronic technology spurt that followed is now legendary. Parliamentary democracy finally came into its own, albeit with distinctly Japanese characteristics reflecting the dislike of debate and confrontation and the group-oriented preference for maintaining the appearance of harmony at all times. The government, through the powerful Finance Ministry and Ministry of International Trade and Industry, generously supported favored private corporations: first shipping, then cars, then electronics firms basked in the warmth of the government\u2019s loving attentions. Japan overtook Britain economically in 1964. By the end of the decade, Japan\u2019s was the third largest economy in the world\u2002\u2014\u2002less then two decades after the war had left the country in ruins. Prosperity was not without its own problems: pollution caused by \u201cdirty\u201d industries, a high incidence of stomach ulcers (even suicides) among schoolchildren pressured by over-ambitious parents, and the awkward questions of what to do about nuclear energy. The famous coziness among politicians, bureaucrats, and private companies, together with the strong cultural emphasis on relationship-building and a lack of transparency and accountability, eventually led to corrupt practices of endemic proportions.

(However, Arrian, who used Ptolemy as a source, said that Alexander crossed with more than 5,000 horse and 30,000 foot; Diodorus quoted the same totals, but listed 5,100 horse and 32,000 foot. Diodorus also referred to an advance force already present in Asia, which Polyaenus, in his Stratagems of War (5.44.4), said numbered 10,000 men.) He showed his intent to conquer the entirety of the Persian Empire by throwing a spear into Asian soil and saying he accepted Asia as a gift from the gods. This also showed Alexander's eagerness to fight, in contrast to his father's preference for diplomacy. After an initial victory against Persian forces at the Battle of the Granicus, on the 24 of Daisios (8 April 334 BC), Alexander accepted the surrender of the Persian provincial capital and treasury of Sardis; he then proceeded along the Ionian coast, granting autonomy and democracy to the cities. Miletos, held by Achaemenid forces, required a delicate siege operation, with Persian naval forces nearby. Further south, at Halicarnassus, in Caria, Alexander successfully waged his first large-scale siege, eventually forcing his opponents, the mercenary captain Memnon of Rhodes and the Persian satrap of Caria, Orontobates, to withdraw by sea. Alexander left the government of Caria to a member of the Hecatomnid dynasty, Ada, who adopted Alexander. From Halicarnassus, Alexander proceeded into mountainous Lycia and the Pamphylian plain, asserting control over all coastal cities to deny the Persians naval bases. From Pamphylia onwards the coast held no major ports and Alexander moved inland. At Termessos, Alexander humbled but did not storm the Pisidian city. At the ancient Phrygian capital of Gordium, Alexander \"undid\" the hitherto unsolvable Gordian Knot, a feat said to await the future \"king of Asia\".

{"idx": 57, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "Einstein visited New York City for the first time on 2 April 1921, where he received an official welcome by Mayor John Francis Hylan, followed by three weeks of lectures and receptions. He went on to deliver several lectures at Columbia University and Princeton University, and in Washington he accompanied representatives of the National Academy of Science on a visit to the White House. On his return to Europe he was the guest of the British statesman and philosopher Viscount Haldane in London, where he met several renowned scientific, intellectual and political figures, and delivered a lecture at King's College. He also published an essay, \"My First Impression of the U.S.A.,\" in July 1921, in which he tried briefly to describe some characteristics of Americans, much as Alexis de Tocqueville did, who published his own impressions in Democracy in America (1835). For some of his observations, Einstein was clearly surprised: \"What strikes a visitor is the joyous, positive attitude to life . The American is friendly, self-confident, optimistic, and without envy.\" In 1922, his travels took him to Asia and later to Palestine, as part of a six-month excursion and speaking tour, as he visited Singapore, Ceylon and Japan, where he gave a series of lectures to thousands of Japanese. After his first public lecture, he met the emperor and empress at the Imperial Palace, where thousands came to watch. In a letter to his sons, Einstein described his impression of the Japanese as being modest, intelligent, considerate, and having a true feel for art. On his return voyage, he visited Palestine for 12 days in what would become his only visit to that region. Einstein was greeted as if he were a head of state, rather than a physicist, which included a cannon salute upon arriving at the home of the British high commissioner, Sir Herbert Samuel. During one reception, the building was stormed by people who wanted to see and hear him. In Einstein's talk to the audience, he expressed happiness that the Jewish people were beginning to be recognized as a force in the world.

Because of that, Robertson is all for a zero-tolerance drug law in force at Creston Plaza apartments on Grand Rapids' Northeast Side. That includes cases in which families may be evicted for the drug use of a single family member, even off the premises. Robertson sees it as a tool to keep his complex as clean and safe as possible. \"If there's one person (using drugs), that is a start,\" said Robertson, 52, a native of Jamaica. He has lived the past four years at Creston Plaza with his wife, Tammy, and his daughter, Precious, 3. In recent months, Robertson was pleased to see casual drug use at the complex diminish with the installation of security cameras. \"If there is a start, then there will be some other problem. I totally agree (if there is a drug link), get them out.\" Critics say the law -- argued Tuesday before the U.S. Supreme Court -- tramples on individual rights and harms the very people public housing authorities are supposed to help. \"It's basically one strike and you're out, and I think they went beyond what Congress intended,\" said Michael Chielens, executive director of Western Michigan Legal Services. \"Someone who had no knowledge or involvement in a criminal act is being punished. That's kind of a basic due process notion that we have had in our legal tradition for a long time.\" The case was brought by four Oakland, Calif., senior citizens, including 63-year-old great-grandmother Pearlie Rucker. They received eviction notices because of the drug use of relatives or caregivers. Rucker was ordered out because her mentally disabled daughter was caught with cocaine three blocks from the apartment she shared with her mother and other family members, court records show.

He came to the threshold, and watched the party until the bridge was neared, when one of them, looking back, might have seen him, so he stepped discreetly inside. Being a non-interfering, self-contained man, he seemed to be rather irresolute. But that condition passed quickly. Leaning over the counter, he secured a hat and a pair of field-glasses, and went out. He, too, knew of Mrs. Jefferson's weakness for shopping in Knoleworth, and that good lady had gone there again.

Exactly what happened is unclear, as The Valdosta Daily Times reported that its reporter, a citizen journalist and two television reporters were escorted out of the courtroom by a Lowndes County Sheriff's Office deputy who said she was following State Court Judge Mark Mitchell's order and offered no further explanation. However, the Johnsons' attorney, Chevene King, said that only CNN affiliate WCTV-TV had its reporter booted from the courtroom. WCTV had no reporting to that effect on its website, nor did CNN affiliate WTXL-TV. A clerk in Mitchell's office referred questions to Lowndes County Clerk Beth Copeland Green, who had not returned messages as of late Tuesday afternoon. Mitchell, a judge from Thomas County, is presiding over the case after Lowndes County Superior Court judges recused themselves from all proceedings involving the Johnsons in order to maintain fairness. Johnson's mother and father, along with five other relatives, are in court on misdemeanor charges related to a 2013 protest. Jury selection wrapped up Monday, and opening statements were scheduled to begin at 9 a.m. Tuesday. One black juror and five whites compose the six-man jury, WCTV reported. The alternate is also black, the station said. The \"KJ 7,\" as the defendants are known, each face a charge of interference with government property for allegedly blocking the entrance to the Lowndes County Courthouse in Valdosta and blocking access to the security checkpoint inside the building. The demonstration was planned after Johnson's parents became frustrated with the lack of information they had received from local investigators regarding their son, who was found dead inside a rolled gym mat at his South Georgia high school in January 2013, King said. Footage published on YouTube shows authorities arresting family members who held hands, blocking a door to the courthouse. Another video posted to a Kendrick Johnson tribute page on Facebook shows family members later, inside the courthouse, joining hands in front of the checkpoint. The family and others can be heard chanting, \"No justice, no peace,\" as officers step in to arrest them.

{"idx": 68, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "(CNN) -- Since the bombing of the Boston marathon -- in which three people, including a child, were killed and more than 200 injured -- attention has naturally focused on what could have been done to prevent it. Some, such as Rep. Peter King, the New York Republican who chairs the Homeland Security Committee, have argued for increased surveillance of Muslims in the United States. Local police departments \"have to realize that the threat is coming from the Muslim community and increase surveillance there,\" he says. Others have asked whether leads were properly followed and if better sharing of information between agencies would have helped thwart the bombing. However, the government, with its $40 billion annual intelligence budget, already amasses vast quantities of information on the private lives of Muslims in the United States. The FBI has 3,000 intelligence analysts working on counterterrorism and 15,000 paid informants, according to Mother Jones. Exactly how many of them are focused on Muslims in the United States is unknown; there is little transparency in this area. But, given the emphasis the FBI has placed on preventing Muslim terrorism, and based on my interviews with FBI agents working on counterterrorism, there could be as many as two-thirds assigned to spying on Muslims. Taking the usual estimate of the Muslim population in the United States of 2.35 million, this would mean the FBI has a spy for every 200 Muslims in the United States. When one adds the resources of the National Security Agency, regional intelligence fusion centers, and the counterterrorism work of local police departments, such as the New York Police Department (where a thousand officers are said to work on counterterrorism and intelligence), the number of spies per Muslim may increase dramatically. East Germany's communist-era secret police, the Stasi, had one intelligence analyst or informant for every 66 citizens. This suggests that Muslims in the United States could be approaching levels of state surveillance similar to that which the East German population faced from the Stasi. Yet, as the Stasi itself eventually discovered, no system of surveillance can ever produce total knowledge of a population. Indeed, the greater the amount of information collected, the harder it is to interpret its meaning. In the majority of terrorist attacks in recent years, the relevant information was somewhere in the government's systems, but its significance was lost amid a morass of useless data. What is obscured by the demands for ever greater surveillance and information processing is that security is best established through relationships of trust and inclusion within the community. The real missed opportunity to intervene before the bombs went off in Boston likely came three months earlier, when bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev stood up during a Friday prayer service at his mosque - the Islamic Society of Boston, in Cambridge - to angrily protest the imam's sermon. The imam had been celebrating the life of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., which Tsarnaev thought was selling out.

More than 230 people were evacuated from the area, including from buildings used by schools including Charles University and the Academy of Performing Arts' film and TV school, known as FAMU, officials said. \"We can now confirm this was a gas explosion. It was not a terrorist attack,\" Prague Mayor Bohuslav Svoboda told reporters Monday. The blast at 5 Divadelni Street, not far from the National Theatre and a block from the Vltava River, which cuts through the city, collapsed the first floor's ceiling, officials said. Windows in neighboring buildings were damaged. Officials do not believe anyone is trapped in the rubble, though fire officials will remain at the site for a while longer \"to be 100% sure nobody is in there,\" Svoboda said. People who initially were unaccounted for were later found with minor injuries, he said Of the 35 people injured, 30 were taken to hospitals, including two people who suffered serious injuries, officials with the city's emergency services said. The city's fire department, which is examining the area for possible gas leaks, said it would take two days to stabilize the site. Charles University canceled classes at an adjacent building for the rest of Monday. A surveyor employed by the city told reporters Monday that the building might not need to be demolished and that the damage appears to be reparable. Earlier, Czech news media gave conflicting reports of the building's location, with an outlet reporting at one point that the blast happened at a FAMU building.

{"idx": 74, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "It might have seemed like manna from heaven - up to thousands of dollars dropping, often unexpectedly, into the hands of a half-million Kentucky and Indiana residents this month. But for some recipients, there is a downside to the checks from Anthem Inc., issued to policyholders as part of the insurer's conversion to a publicly traded company. The poorest recipients could actually suffer from the windfall by losing their benefits under Medicaid, food-stamp and other programs. That's because they suddenly have more money than the eligibility threshold for aid. TO avoid losing valuable benefits such as a Medicaid-paid spot in a nursing home, recipients may need to spend their money fast - as early as the end of this month - but make sure they do it in a way that meets program guidelines. \"You would think money out of the blue would be a good thing,\" said Jaime Odle Harmon, executive director of the Lexington-based Access to Justice Foundation. \"We're just trying to make sure that it is, and doesn't have a negative impact on low-income folks and their families.\" Legal aid lawyers in Kentucky have put together an action team and held frequent statewide conference calls in response to concerns from aid recipients and advocates that the Anthem payouts could cost people their benefits, at least temporarily. \"We're getting deluged\" with calls on the issue, said Hamon, whose agency supports the state's legal-services programs and operates a legal hotline for the elderly. The basic advice is this: if you received a check or stock from Anthem and you haven't disposed of it yet, pick up the phone and call a legal-aid lawyer, benefits counselor or someone else who understands eligibility guidelines. And do it right away. \"There are people out there who are available to help anyone who has a problem. It's legal service and it's free,\" said Amy Turner, a staff attorney in Louisville with the Legal Aid Society, which covers Jefferson and 14 surrounding counties. The sudden concern over losing benefits was triggered by the recent mailing by Anthem, the Indianapolis-based insurer, of about $2 billion in checks, plus shares of stock worth a bit more than that, to 1 million eligible policyholders in four states. About half of those were individuals or employers in Kentucky and Indiana. The distribution was a result of Anthem's conversion last year from a mutual company, owned by its policyholders, to a publicly traded company owned by the shareholders. Despite earlier mailings from Anthem, the checks caught many people by surprise. And while it was generally a nice surprise, it worried many aid-recipients who fear losing benefits - especially elderly residents in Medicaid nursing-home beds.

{"idx": 75, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "Prairie State Legal Services Inc. of Peoria managing attorney Lisa Y. Wilson vows that poor central Illinoisans will continue to have free lawyers to assist them, despite funding cuts. \"There has been a decrease in funding to this Prairie State Legal office by about $50,000,\" Wilson said Thursday. \"That means that we will lose money to supply one attorney, but we should be able to continue to manage. It's not having the impact as it is having in Chicago\" and at other agencies statewide. Wilson's office, at 331 Fulton St., Suite 600, serves poor residents in the counties of Peoria, Tazewell, Woodford, Marshall and Stark. Wilson learned from Eric Kleiman, a spokesman for Legal Services Corp. - the Washington, D.C.-based agency that distributes federal money for free legal aid programs in Illinois - that LSC will lose about $920,000 in congressional funding annually. Besides Prairie State, LSC also funds the Legal Assistance Foundation of Metropolitan Chicago, and Alton-based Land of Lincoln Legal Services. The cuts will take the biggest bite out of Land of Lincoln, a network of eight offices and 40 lawyers who help clients in southern Illinois with problems such as eviction, access to Social Security and obtaining orders of protection from abusive spouses, Kleiman said. The LSC allocates money to states based on the number of poor counted in the last census. The 2000 census showed Illinois with about 35,000 fewer people who are eligible for LSC services. Although the three groups deliver most of the legal aid in Illinois, dozens of other programs offer similar services, and all will feel the pain when the Lawyers Trust Fund of Illinois doles out grants for 2003. The fund, created by the Illinois Supreme Court in 1983, gets interest from escrow accounts and other money lawyers often keep for their clients and spends it on legal aid. This year, the fund will likely award just half of the $3.5 million it usually gives some 34 groups statewide, said Ruth Ann Schmitt, the trust funds executive director. The Illinois General Assembly has appropriated about $500,000 annually for legal aid in recent years, an amount Bartylak said has not been much reduced. Still, of the nation's 10 most populated states, Illinois ranks last in the amount of money legislators appropriate for legal aid, LSC President John Erlenborn said earlier this year. Peoria County State's Attorney Kevin Lyons said all the budget cuts will not affect poor criminals because the state court appoints public defenders.

But for the last several years it has often done that job poorly, according to state and federal officials. And barring a long-shot legal victory, as of Jan. 1 the autonomous county office will be replaced by a new agency whose administrators will report to a director based in Jersey City. Federal legal aid officials drew up the new service area uniting Bergen, Hudson, and Passaic counties in June, insisting the change will trim administrative costs without compromising services. The Passaic County office and its supporters see it differently. They say top decision-makers will be too far from the individuals and non-profit agencies that rely on the office for help. And in a federal lawsuit, the agency's leadership argues that a merger would jeopardize its educational programs and minority hiring efforts, and that its imposition amounts to bureaucratic bullying by state and federal officials. Those same officials have repeatedly accused the Passaic County office of mismanagement. Reviews since 1995 have found evidence of shoddy accounting, poor morale, excessive staff turnover, and double counting of cases - and alleged that the office made limited efforts to rectify the problems. At times in recent years, the office has received its state and federal funding on a month-to-month basis, which one federal official called \"one step short of defunding.\" Leaders of the county agency, which employs 14 attorneys, five paralegals, and nine support staff at offices in Paterson and Wanaque, say officials have \"greatly exaggerated\" the office's problems, which they call mostly bureaucratic. \"Just let them argue that their [merger] plan makes sense,\" Maxim Thorne, the office's deputy director, said of the higher-level legal aid officials. \"They could never replicate our services or equal the accumulated value of this office.\" Over the summer, the office reapplied for a federal grant to serve Passaic County in the coming year. But Legal Services Corp. in Washington rejected the application, saying it failed to address the service needs of the entire tri-county area - a requirement under the new rules. By mid-December, the federal body is expected to award Passaic County's federal funding - about $385,000 this year - to Northeast New Jersey Legal Services, the tri-county agency. State funds of about $1.6 million could follow, although Thorne noted the state appropriated $927,000 of that amount through June 2003. The state Treasury Department's legal services representative did not return repeated calls for comment.

But a bill drafted by Del. Preston Bryant, R-Lynchburg, won't be addressed until next year after the Virginia Housing Commission, prompted by a Senate Joint Resolution, offers its recommendations based on a statewide study of rent-to-own contracts and other housing issues. Bryant said he read about the issue in a July News & Advance editorial. The editorial stemmed from a News & Advance article which highlighted three women and four children who were being evicted after their home at 1328 Bedford Ave., was cited for two dozen code violations. The women had been paying $425 a month in a rent-to-own agreement for five years, or roughly $25,500. They still had another 10 years to go to complete the contract. \"I called the Virginia Legal Aid Society and also talked to (City Attorney) Walter Erwin and (Housing Authority executive director) Ed McCann about it,\" Bryant said Monday. \"I asked them to take a look at this issue as an ad hoc committee.\" \"I was a little concerned about it and wanted to see if there was any reasonable steps that could be taken to help protect folks that are not overly burdensome.\" Bryant's bill, House Bill 1122, requires all rent-to-own contracts to be recorded in the land deeds where the property is located along with any documents indicating the financial arrangement. It also requires landlords to have their property inspected prior to tenants signing a rent-to-own contract and to provide the tenant with the inspection report. \"Many times, those entering into these contracts are your less sophisticated people,\" Bryant said. \"And while I don't think we as a government can protect everybody we can take some steps to help protect people.\" Lawyers say the rent-to-own contracts are legal but the contracts do tend to take advantage of people with limited options. \"We always tell people not to sign those,\" said Renae Patrick, managing attorney at Lynchburg's Virginia Legal Aid Society, in a June 27, 2001 article about rent-to-own contracts. Commissioners with the Lynchburg Redevelopment and Housing Authority approved last September a resolution that would require inspections every time a tenant moved out. That proposal also required an inspection before a new tenant signs a rent-to-own contract. The resolution must come before City Council for final action.

He left in 1490, possibly to work under Martin Schongauer, the leading engraver of Northern Europe, but who died shortly before Durer's arrival at Colmar in 1492. It is unclear where Durer travelled in the intervening period, though it is likely that he went to Frankfurt and the Netherlands. In Colmar, Durer was welcomed by Schongauer's brothers, the goldsmiths Caspar and Paul and the painter Ludwig. In 1493 Durer went to Strasbourg, where he would have experienced the sculpture of Nikolaus Gerhaert. Durer's first painted self-portrait (now in the Louvre) was painted at this time, probably to be sent back to his fiancee in Nuremberg. In early 1492 Durer travelled to Basel to stay with another brother of Martin Schongauer, the goldsmith Georg. Very soon after his return to Nuremberg, on 7 July 1494, at the age of 23, Durer was married to Agnes Frey following an arrangement made during his absence.

There were still no towns; the site of Dublin was only a crossroads, known as Baile Atha Cliath (\"City of the Hurdles,\" a designation still seen on buses). Communities clustered around monasteries and castles. From a.d. 795, Ireland was subject to repeated Viking raids. The Vikings sacked the great centers of learning for their treasures. In the ninth century they built a fort on the Liffey and founded Ireland's first town\u2002\u2014\u2002Dubh Linn or \"Black Pool.\" The remains of Viking fortifications can be seen today beneath Dublin Castle. The Vikings also introduced coinage and better ship-building techniques. In a.d. 988 the Irish kings finally united under the king of Munster, Brian Bor\u00fa, and in a great battle drove the Vikings north of the Liffey. Their influence waned, and they began to be absorbed into the general population. The Irish now held Dublin and in 1038 the first Christ Church Cathedral was founded. Ireland Under the Normans In 1169 the Normans landed in Wexford, beginning the struggle between England and Ireland that was to dominate Irish history until independence. Norman incursion began with an internal power struggle. The king of Leinster invited Richard de Clare, known as \"Strongbow,\" to come to Ireland to help him reclaim his kingdom (Strongbow's tomb can be seen in Christ Church Cathedral).

{"idx": 92, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "Philips Andover Academy, one of the most elite and selective boarding high schools in the country, failed again to elect a girl to its top student position -- the school presidency. Since the school went co-ed in 1973, only three girls have held this office. In a letter that launched a fiery debate across its campus, senior girls implored their peers to look hard at the school's \"staggering gender imbalance\" in student leadership. Headmaster John Palfrey responded by telling The New York Times, \"Girls have not had equal access to top leadership positions.\" Yet, access for girls is rarely the problem when it comes to pursuing leadership. Feeling authorized to take leadership roles is the problem. It starts early. From childhood to adolescence, girls face mixed messages about displaying power and authority. The girls at Andover and elsewhere are socialized to be likeable, to please others, to not tout their own successes and to speak softly like proper girls. As a result, they face powerful psychological barriers to attaining leadership roles. The impact of what I call the \"curse of the good girl\" effect first appears in friendships, when young girls take pains to avoid direct conflict with peers. \"I want to tell her how I feel,\" a typical girl would say in my research interviews, \"but what if she hates me or turns other people against me?\" These girls often resorted to gossip and other forms of indirect communication, or they internalize their feelings in unhealthy ways. Over time, pretending not to be angry with a friend when you are, or turning to a text messages instead of having an honest conversation, becomes a formative habit of communication. Meanwhile, the muscles that girls need to assert their strongest feelings and opinions atrophy. By the time girls join sports teams and school organizations, many have imported these social habits into student leadership contexts.

Populations within conflict zones such as the Democratic Republic of Congo are particularly vulnerable. The Food and Agriculture Organization has issued preliminary estimates classifying 963 million people as undernourished -- an increase of 40 million people over the past year. \"One out of seven people -- about 15 percent -- suffer chronically of not having enough to eat,\" said Mark Smulders, an FAO economist. The hunger report -- titled \"The State of Food Insecurity in the World 2008\" -- said the world's financial and economic problems could throw more people into poverty. The number of hungry had been increasing over the years before the rise in food prices, with warfare and political instability continuing to be among the factors causing poverty. The preliminary estimates lack a firm country breakdown, but last year's figures are an accurate measure of where the problems are. About 907 out of 923 million undernourished people in 2007, or 65 percent of the hungry, live in India, China, the war-wracked Democratic Republic of Congo, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Pakistan and Ethiopia. Smulders said about 27 percent of the world's hungry live in India and 15 percent in China. The other countries each represent 4 to 5 percent of the world's total.

He was undefeated in battle and is considered one of history's most successful military commanders. During his youth, Alexander was tutored by the philosopher Aristotle until the age of 16. After Philip was assassinated in 336 BC, Alexander succeeded his father to the throne and inherited a strong kingdom and an experienced army. He had been awarded the generalship of Greece and used this authority to launch his father's Panhellenic project to lead the Greeks in the conquest of Persia. In 334 BC, he invaded the Achaemenid Empire, ruled Asia Minor, and began a series of campaigns that lasted ten years. Alexander broke the power of Persia in a series of decisive battles, most notably the battles of Issus and Gaugamela. He subsequently overthrew the Persian King Darius III and conquered the Achaemenid Empire in its entirety. At that point, his empire stretched from the Adriatic Sea to the Indus River. Seeking to reach the \"ends of the world and the Great Outer Sea\", he invaded India in 326 BC, but was eventually forced to turn back at the demand of his troops. Alexander died in Babylon in 323 BC, the city he planned to establish as his capital, without executing a series of planned campaigns that would have begun with an invasion of Arabia. In the years following his death, a series of civil wars tore his empire apart, resulting in several states ruled by the Diadochi, Alexander's surviving generals and heirs. Alexander's legacy includes the cultural diffusion his conquests engendered, such as Greco-Buddhism. He founded some twenty cities that bore his name, most notably Alexandria in Egypt. Alexander's settlement of Greek colonists and the resulting spread of Greek culture in the east resulted in a new Hellenistic civilization, aspects of which were still evident in the traditions of the Byzantine Empire in the mid-15th century and the presence of Greek speakers in central and far eastern Anatolia until the 1920s. Alexander became legendary as a classical hero in the mold of Achilles, and he features prominently in the history and myth of Greek and non-Greek cultures.

It was not a life intended for many girls in Africa. As a cattle-herding tomboy, I was bound to follow in the footsteps of generations of women before me: early marriage, illiteracy and poverty. Back then, most kids in my village never had a chance to attend pre-school because it didn't exist. Instead, we would spend hours chasing birds and monkeys from our parents' fields. Gold mines and urban factories employed men, while women remained at home to look after their children. The more men could read and write, the better their chances of being employed and able to provide for their family. As a result, families wanted to educate their sons, who became village role models. Without an education, how could girls compete? How could they become role models, too? That was more than 40 years ago. Today, change is happening in my beloved Matau, and all across the long red dirt roads, verdant mountains and open blue skies of Africa.

Council aides said yesterday that they did not have a head count for the cuts at the Law Department, but that the City Council plan is tilted towards the elimination of legal positions, which at 10 percent would require the layoff of more than 65 lawyers. At the same time, the City Council plan envisages dramatic cuts in the legal departments of many city agencies with a view to transferring the work to the Law Department. The plan also calls for the elimination of the Mayor's Office of Contracts, which would save $1.8 million, and the transfer of the legal work done by that agency to the Corporation Counsel's Office. Council aides did not have a total for the savings that would be realized in city agency legal departments through its plan. But, they said, the proposal would save $10 million by eliminating more than 300 lawyers at the Administration for Children's Services, many of whom prosecute neglect and abuse cases in Family Court. Jack Deacy, a spokesman for Administration for Children's Services, was unavailable for comment. Council aides also identified steep cuts in the legal departments of other agencies: all 40 lawyers at the Department of Correction for a savings of $2 million; 21 of 28 lawyers at the Department of Sanitation, saving $945,000; and seven of 10 lawyers at the Department of Buildings, $451,000 in savings. Asked how the Corporation Counsel's Office could take on the expanded work while its own legal staff was being cut, Thomas L. McMahon, the general counsel of the City Council, said that in view of the city's \"terribly difficult fiscal circumstances,\" the City Council plan provides a better way of \"managing the city's work force given the resources we have.\" Kate Ahlers, a spokeswoman for Corporation Counsel's Office, said that her office had not yet received the City Council's plan and could not comment. The administrative savings proposed by the City Council through the elimination of the Office of Contracts and many agency legal positions were part of $559 million the Council proposed to save through \"consolidation and efficiency\" in management. In total, the City Council proposed realizing $1.65 billion through savings and increased fees, including restoration of the commuter tax, to fund its own initiatives and offset some of the cuts proposed by Mayor Bloomberg in his preliminary budget on Feb.

{"idx": 106, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "The law was written at a time when public housing complexes were under assault by drug-dealing gangs and politicians were pressured to take action. Families can be removed for drug use by one member, whether the drug activity is in the home or somewhere else. Under the Department of Housing and Urban Development' enforcement program, tenants may not avoid eviction simply by claiming ignorance of the crime or an inability to stop it. Carlos Sanchez, executive director of the Grand Rapids Housing Commission, believes the law can be effective if it's applied with discretion. The commission administers about 3,500 public housing units in the Grand Rapids area, including Creston Plaza. \"I think if it's done with caution, it's a tool that we desperately needed in our developments,\" Sanchez said. Sanchez said Grand Rapids doesn't have the large-scale drug problems larger cities do -- and he wants to keep it that way. \"We've done the best we can to keep it from being so drug-infested it becomes a war zone. Once the development is taken over, it's very difficult to take them back.\" Sanchez said the commission relies on police reports in deciding evictions, which he estimated at one or two a year. Among those cases, according to Leslie Curry, litigation director of Western Michigan Legal Services, was that of a mother evicted from public housing about a year ago with several young children. She was removed because her 17-year-old son was arrested selling drugs outside the apartment, Curry said. That left her with the hardship of seeking a place she could afford for herself and her children, without the certainty she afford the rent. \"She didn't know about it,\" Curry said of the drug deal. \"In Grand Rapids, subsidized housing is critical to people's ability to maintain basic security in their lives.\" ", "questions": [{"question": "Did the mother of the 17 year old know that he was selling drugs before she was evicted?", "answers": [{"text": "She suspected", "idx": 6279}, {"text": "No, she did not", "idx": 6280}, {"text": "She did know", "idx": 6281}, {"text": "She was selling drugs with him", "idx": 6282}], "idx": 1166}, {"question": "Carlos Sanchez believes what law can be effective if it's applied with discretion?", "answers": [{"text": "The law that families can be removed for drug use by one member, whether the drug activity is in the home or somewhere else", "idx": 6283}, {"text": "Law to raise rents", "idx": 6284}, {"text": "Commit 37", "idx": 6285}, {"text": "Eviction law based on the use or sale of drugs", "idx": 6286}, {"text": "Repossession law", "idx": 6287}, {"text": "Lesson in patience", "idx": 6288}, {"text": "Strong enforcement", "idx": 6289}, {"text": "Legal aid", "idx": 6290}], "idx": 1167}, {"question": "Why was a mother with several young children evicted from public housing about a year ago?", "answers": [{"text": "Because her 17-year-old son was arrested selling drugs outside the apartment", "idx": 6291}, {"text": "Her son stole a car", "idx": 6292}, {"text": "They damaged the property", "idx": 6293}, {"text": "They were too noisy", "idx": 6294}, {"text": "He son was selling drugs outside the apartment", "idx": 6295}, {"text": "She did not have a job", "idx": 6296}, {"text": "Because her 17-year-old son was arrested selling drugs outside the apartment, Curry said", "idx": 6297}, {"text": "Rent was past due", "idx": 6298}], "idx": 1168}, {"question": "Could the evicted mother have avoided eviction because she was unaware of her son's actions?", "answers": [{"text": "No", "idx": 6299}, {"text": "No, she still would have been evicted", "idx": 6300}, {"text": "Yes", "idx": 6301}], "idx": 1169}, {"question": "Which commission administers about 3,500 public housing units in the Grand Rapids area, including Creston Plaza?", "answers": [{"text": "West Michigan Housing Commission", "idx": 6302}, {"text": "Equal Housing Lender", "idx": 6303}, {"text": "Homeland secuirty", "idx": 6304}, {"text": "Grand Rapids Housing Commission", "idx": 6305}, {"text": "FDA Commis
{"idx": 107, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "States like Minnesota and New Jersey spend three times more than California to meet the poor's legal needs, Connecticut and Massachusetts spend more than twice as much, and countries like England, Canada, Australia, Scotland and New Zealand spend anywhere from two to 14 times more proportionately than California, despite the fact that California has the world's sixth largest economy. The report says the state would need to triple its combined public and private investment in legal services to adequately meet the legal needs of low-income Californians. The 1996 welfare reform legisla tion, in particular, brought dramatic changes to the lives of those living in poverty, for while fewer people now receive welfare benefits, those who left welfare to work are still poor. And the legal issues they face \"have become more numerous and complex,\" the report said. \"Parents who found only low-paying jobs without health benefits did not improve the well-being of their children. Women who entered the workforce in low-skilled positions with no opportunity to acquire marketable skills lack realistic long-term options. Obstacles to employment such as lack of child care and transportation, domestic violence and job discrimination raise a host of new legal issues.\" Those issues revolve around an extensive universe of problems, including housing, education, domestic violence, immigration, employment, grandparent guardianships, bankruptcy and consumer debt, veterans' issues, elder abuse and home equity fraud, the report said. To meet all those needs, there is only one legal aid lawyer for every 10,000 poor Californians. Despite this bleak picture, the state's civil justice community has taken significant steps to close the gap between need and services in the past five years: The legislature and the governor established the Equal Access Fund, which has provided $10 million annually since 1999 for more than 100 local legal services programs. Access to the courts has been enhanced through a variety of self-help options, including online assistance in every county, a system of family law facilitators, increased funding for alternative dispute resolution and simplified forms and procedures. The Judicial Council is addressing language barriers by increasing the availability of qualified interpreters and translating forms and instructions into Spanish, Vietnam-ese, Korean and Chinese. Legal services programs have been strengthened by offering a wide range of services, including self-help clinics and hotlines and working relationships with social services agencies to meet all of a client's needs. Still, when more than 70 percent of the poor's legal needs are not being met, much remains to be done, the report points out. It recommends adding to the access fund, increasing both the number of pro bono hours and financial contributions from attorneys, improved assistance for unrepresented litigants and access to an attorney for those who require one, and development of a statewide plan to distribute legal services more evenly throughout the state to insure that the rural population also is served. \"I know my fe llow judges want to do justice and not inflict injustice,\" observed Justice Earl Johnson of the California Court of Appeal, who chaired the committee that researched and wrote the report. \"More than anyone, they know it can be nearly impossible to do the former and avoid the latter in a one-sided contest where only one litigant has a lawyer.\" \"Our whole society is harmed when access and fairness are denied,\" said Londen.

All there was, all I remembered, was a blur. Gathering for drinks in the parlors, playing dress up with all the fine clothes I found in the closets (some of it modern, some of it period dress for special themed events), idling in the lounges. Now and then, a new face mingled in the crowd. Other faces washed out, fading into the backdrop of carpets and fake glass chandeliers and the muted hum of the engines. One of these evenings, we were gathered in the South Ballroom for post-dinner drinks, lounging on couches and watching other members of our populace move in circles on the dance floor. (The 'South' was in the title to suggest that there were more ballrooms. There weren't.) Sarah's circle had picked up another newcomer, Adrienne, a short blond girl who we all agreed was barely old enough to attend a traditional university back on Earth, let alone work on the ship in whose wreck Jefferson had found her. Maybe it was her curiosity, asking a question I should have asked long before, that turned the conversation serious; maybe there was just something special about that evening.

The Texas Equal Access to Justice Foundation announced that the Fort Worth-based nonprofit groups will receive grants from funds it controls, including the Interest on Lawyers' Trust Accounts, or IOLTA, program. West Texas Legal Services, which works with clients in 106 counties including Tarrant, Lubbock, Midland and Potter, will get about $1.03 million. The legal aid group cleared about 8,300 cases last year. \"It is going to help us out tremendously with our program,\" said Kathy Duncan at West Texas Legal Services. \"If it wasn't for the grant, we couldn't continue to do the work we are doing.\" West Texas handles such cases as divorces, protective orders in domestic violence cases and land-lord-tenant disputes. It has a staff of about 100 employees, including attorneys and support staff, in 10 branch offices. The NAACP's Fort Worth Justice Project will get $49,000. Officials from the group's legal assistance program were not available to comment. Created by the Texas Supreme Court, the Equal Access foundation has distributed about $8 million statewide. Besides the IOLTA program, the money comes from court filing fees and a state criminal victims assistance program. In Texas, 4.2 million people qualify for legal assistance because they make at or below 120 percent of the federal poverty guideline. In Tarrant County, 204,000 people are eligible for legal aid. The grants come at a time when funding for programs providing attorneys for the poor are in jeopardy from declining interest rates, cutbacks in federal funding and legal challenges. \"It needs to be a whole lot more,\" said Betty Torres, executive director of the Austin-based foundation. \"Although the poverty population in Texas has increased, statewide and federal funding for this vital work is in decline.\" About $4.9 million being distributed this year comes from the IOLTA fund, which is interest earned on money paid to lawyers as retainers or to cover court costs.

Monsignor William Lynn has been in prison since he was convicted in July 2012. He was convicted of one count of child endangerment and sentenced to three to six years. Attorney Thomas Bergstrom said Lynn could be released as soon as Friday, depending on paperwork. Philadelphia District Attorney Seth Williams said his office likely will appeal the ruling. \"I am disappointed and strongly disagree with the court's decision,\" he said. Lynn's conviction was for not removing a defrocked priest, Edward Avery, from active ministry in the 1990s after learning Avery had molested a teen. According to philly.com, Lynn's attorneys convinced the three-judge Superior Court panel that the laws at the time only applied to people who directly supervised children. The founder of Opus Bono Sacerdotii, a Detroit organization that provides assistance to accused priests, told philly.com the ruling will make prosecutors \"reflect on who is really accountable for the damage that may have been done to victims of sexual abuse.\" Marci Hamilton, a lawyer for alleged victims suing Lynn and the Philadelphia archdiocese, called the decision a \"very technical reading of the law,\" the website reported.

{"idx": 116, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) within the Department of Transportation had been vested by Congress with the sometimes conflicting mandate of regulating the safety and security of U.S. civil aviation while also promoting the civil aviation industry. The FAA had a security mission to protect the users of commercial air transportation against terrorism and other criminal acts. In the years before 9/11, the FAA perceived sabotage as a greater threat to aviation than hijacking. First, no domestic hijacking had occurred in a decade. Second, the commercial aviation system was perceived as more vulnerable to explosives than to weapons such as firearms. Finally, explosives were perceived as deadlier than hijacking and therefore of greater consequence. In 1996, a presidential commission on aviation safety and security chaired by Vice President Al Gore reinforced the prevailing concern about sabotage and explosives on aircraft. The Gore Commission also flagged, as a new danger, the possibility of attack by surface-to-air missiles. Its 1997 final report did not discuss the possibility of suicide hijackings. The FAA set and enforced aviation security rules, which airlines and airports were required to implement. The rules were supposed to produce a \"layered\" system of defense. This meant that the failure of any one layer of security would not be fatal, because additional layers would provide backup security. But each layer relevant to hijackings-intelligence, passenger prescreening, checkpoint screening, and onboard security-was seriously flawed prior to 9/11. Taken together, they did not stop any of the 9/11 hijackers from getting on board four different aircraft at three different airports. The FAA's policy was to use intelligence to identify both specific plots and general threats to civil aviation security, so that the agency could develop and deploy appropriate countermeasures. The FAA's 40-person intelligence unit was supposed to receive a broad range of intelligence data from the FBI, CIA, and other agencies so that it could make assessments about the threat to aviation. But the large volume of data contained little pertaining to the presence and activities of terrorists in the United States. For example, information on the FBI's effort in 1998 to assess the potential use of flight training by terrorists and the Phoenix electronic communication of 2001 warning of radical Middle Easterners attending flight school were not passed to FAA headquarters.

The JX-1 radio 's back any data about the star but gets sucked into the star 's gravitational field which drags the ship into Gorath , incinerating it . Japan and the rest of the world are stunned by the discovery and , after some reluctance , send up the JX-2 Ootori spaceship for a voyage to investigate Gorath . The United Nations band together to discover a solution to the problem , and decide that their only solutions are to either destroy Gorath or move the planet out of the way . Back on Earth , the UN decides on the plan to move the Earth out of the way of Gorath , the South Pole Operation . The plan is to have atomic energy channeled through huge atomic furnaces 500 meters below the surface , then fed though enormous pipes called thrusters which will all fire in unison . But for this to work they will need an area 600 kilometers producing an atomic force equal to that of 6,600,000,000 megatons to move the Earth 400,000 kilometers way from Gorath .

Before then, despite the peninsula's obvious geographical unity bounded by the Alps and the Mediterranean, its story is a fragmented tale of independent-minded cities, regions, and islands\u2002\u2014\u2002and the outside powers who coveted them. We have abundant evidence of the ancient Etruscan, Greek, and Roman communities in Italy, but know very little of the country's earlier, prehistoric settlers.

But the inhabitants? Perhaps North Africans and eastern Europeans peopled the Ligurian coast, while the Adriatic and south may have been settled by people from the Balkans and Asia Minor. Nobody knows much about the early Etruscans. Some historians believe that they were the first native Italians; others believe they arrived from Asia Minor. During the millennium before the Christian era, their civilization reached north beyond Tuscany to the Po valley and south toward Naples. At a time when early Roman and other Latin tribes were still primitive, Etruscan society \u2014 itself savage in many respects \u2014 was also aristocratic and highly sophisticated. Solid gold workmanship and other metal ornaments and tools showed a Greek influence, but the Etruscans' vaulted architecture, town planning, and irrigation systems were indigenous. Arriving in the eighth century b.c. , the Greeks set up city-states in Sicily, dominated by Syracuse, as well as other settlements on the Italian mainland, such as Naples, Paestum, and Taranto. Together they formed Magna Graecia, whose zenith was reached during the 6th and 5th centuries b.c. After defeats by Greeks in the south, Latins in the center, and Gallic invaders in the north, the Etruscan empire faded in the fourth century b.c. As Greek colonial power grew weak from Athens-Sparta rivalry back home and pressure from Phoenicians in Sicily, the vacuum was filled by an uppity confederation of Latin and Sabine tribes living on seven hills known collectively as Rome.

{"idx": 122, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "Now effectively merged with Zawahiri's Egyptian Islamic Jihad, al Qaeda promised to become the general headquarters for international terrorism, without the need for the Islamic Army Shura. Bin Laden was prepared to pick up where he had left off in Sudan. He was ready to strike at \"The head of the snake.\" Al Qaeda's role in organizing terrorist operations had also changed. Before the move to Afghanistan, it had concentrated on providing funds, training, and weapons for actions carried out by members of Ailied groups. The attacks on the U.S. embassies in East Africa in the summer of 1998 would take a different form-planned, directed, and executed by al Qaeda, under the direct supervision of Bin Laden and his chief aides. The Embassy Bombings As early as December 1993, a team of al Qaeda operatives had begun casing targets in Nairobi for future attacks. It was led by Ali Mohamed, a former Egyptian army officer who had moved to the United States in the mid-1980s, enlisted in the U.S. Army, and became an instructor at Fort Bragg. He had provided guidance and training to extremists at the Farouq mosque in Brooklyn, including some who were subsequently convicted in the February 1993 attack on the World Trade Center. The casing team also included a computer expert whose write-ups were reviewed by al Qaeda leaders. The team set up a makeshift laboratory for developing their surveillance photographs in an apartment in Nairobi where the various al Qaeda operatives and leaders based in or traveling to the Kenya cell sometimes met. Banshiri, al Qaeda's military committee chief, continued to be the operational commander of the cell; but because he was constantly on the move, Bin Laden had dispatched another operative, Khaled al Fawwaz, to serve as the on-site manager. The technical surveillance and communications equipment employed for these casing missions included state-of-the-art video cameras obtained from China and from dealers in Germany. The casing team also reconnoitered targets in Djibouti. As early as January 1994, Bin Laden received the surveillance reports, complete with diagrams prepared by the team's computer specialist. He, his top military committee members-Banshiri and his deputy, Abu Hafs al Masri (also known as Mohammed Atef)-and a number of other al Qaeda leaders reviewed the reports. Agreeing that the U.S. embassy in Nairobi was an easy target because a car bomb could be parked close by, they began to form a plan. Al Qaeda had begun developing the tactical expertise for such attacks months earlier, when some of its operatives-top military committee members and several operatives who were involved with the Kenya cell among them-were sent to Hezbollah training camps in Lebanon.

{"idx": 126, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "(CNN) -- In November 2009, Norwegian freelance journalist Paul Refsdal is riding in a pick-up truck on a dusty track of Afghan road. The Taliban have kidnapped him. If the truck turns right, he knows he's being sold to another militant group. A left turn means his kidnappers have decided to let him go. His journey started when Refsdal, who wanted to document the daily lives of the Taliban, accepted the invitation of a Taliban commander to film him and his fighters. Refsdal later accompanied another Taliban commander, Omar, to his hideout on a second embed. As part of CNN's \"Taliban\" documentary, Refsdal talked with CNN's Anderson Cooper about going from invited guest to kidnap victim -- a harrowing experience that began the way it later ended, with Refsdal in a truck. Here is an edited excerpt: REFSDAL: We rent a pickup truck and we drive into this valley that doesn't really have a road. I'm told it is not possible to drive anymore. We will have to walk for several hours up the hillside to one village, and we have to sneak a little bit. Omar is very particular about I should cover my face. I assume this is because they don't want informers to see that there's a foreigner coming. And we sleep in a house, and everything seems OK. Then, the next day we are asked to go to another house, just 100 meters down the hillside. We have to wait there, because they're going to have a meeting. After a couple hours, one of the fighters comes and says he's from al Qaeda. And he says that he has information that I was spying for the coalition, so both my translator and I will be executed tonight. And he goes on, saying that we're going to be killed with a knife. ...

{"idx": 128, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "(CNN) -- The Australian government has admitted it has 153 people, including children, in custody at sea while it fights a High Court challenge to any plans to send them back to Sri Lanka. Until Tuesday's court hearing in Melbourne, the government had refused to confirm or deny it was holding the suspected asylum seekers, in line with its policy of not commenting on operational matters under \"Operation Sovereign Borders.\" All those on board are thought to be Tamils who left the Indian port of Pondicherry on a 72-foot boat in mid-June. They include three-year-old Febrina, whose image was released by a worried relative who hasn't heard from his family for more than a week. \"I am desperate to know where my family is. I can't function at all not knowing. I know all of them would be in very big trouble if sent back to Sri Lanka,\" he said, via an interpreter to the Tamil Refugee Council in Australia, before Tuesday's hearing. The government launched Operation Sovereign Borders last September, a military-led campaign to \"stop the boats,\" referring to a steady stream of vessels crammed with asylum seekers trying to make it to Australian waters. Critics, including human rights campaigners, have slammed the policy, which advocates \"turn-backs\" and the offshore processing of asylum claims, as cruel and unnecessary. 'Culture of secrecy' On Tuesday, they also took aim at the \"culture of secrecy,\" which created days of uncertainty for family members whose relatives were presumably lost at sea, and resulted in a vacuum of official information to back up claims that a boat had gone missing. \"It took getting a case to the High Court before the government would admit that they did have those people in custody and that they were on the high seas, that's not good enough,\" said Ian Rintoul, from the Refugee Action Coalition. David Manne, Executive Director of the Refugee and Immigration Legal Center (RILC), said the government's silence raised \"profound concerns\" about whether their rights and Australia's obligations under international law were being breached.

{"idx": 129, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "Prehistory and Early Chronicles: As evidenced by bones, weapons, and pottery most recently uncovered by archeologists, the Asian equivalent of Neanderthal Man crossed a now-submerged land bridge from eastern Siberia to what is now Sakhalin Island and northern Japan some 100,000 years ago. These migrants, who later settled throughout the Japanese archipelago, were the ancestors of the present-day Ainu, whose Caucasoid facial and body hair distinguished them from subsequent immigrants from China, Manchuria, Korea, and perhaps the Malay Peninsula. It was the growth and military assertion of the newcomers that drove the \"hairy people\" (as they were labeled) back north to their present concentration in Hokkaido. The oldest Stone Age settlements to be discovered (10,000 b.c. ) are known as Jomon (\"cord pattern\"), after the style of their handmade pottery, which was among the earliest to be found anywhere in the world and of rich and imaginative design. Their inhabitants dwelled in sunken pits and lived from hunting, fishing, and the gathering of roots and nuts. It wasn't until the third century b.c. that techniques of rice cultivation (and wheel-made pottery) arrived from Korea, along with irrigation methods that are still in use today. The scarcity of flatlands suitable for cultivation made it possible for a small aristocratic elite to gain quick control of the food resources. This set the pattern of hierarchic rule that was to prevail right up to the last half of the 19th century (some would claim, in economic terms at least, that it still persists today). Although there are no reliable accounts of this period, third-century Chinese documents speak of a Japanese priestess-queen, Himiko, ruling over a land of law-abiding people who enjoyed alcohol and were divided into classes distinguished by tattoo marks. Five centuries later, Japan's own Kojiki and Nihon-shoki chronicles describe the creation of the imperial dynasty in the year 660 b.c. : the first emperor, Jimmu (\"Divine Warrior\")\u2002\u2014\u2002great grandson of the Sun Goddess's grandson\u2002\u2014\u2002embarked on an expedition of conquest from Kyushu along the Inland Sea coast to the Yamato plain of the Kinki region (near modern-day Nara).

During Philip's absence, the Thracian Maedi revolted against Macedonia. Alexander responded quickly, driving them from their territory. He colonized it with Greeks, and founded a city named Alexandropolis. Upon Philip's return, he dispatched Alexander with a small force to subdue revolts in southern Thrace. Campaigning against the Greek city of Perinthus, Alexander is reported to have saved his father's life. Meanwhile, the city of Amphissa began to work lands that were sacred to Apollo near Delphi, a sacrilege that gave Philip the opportunity to further intervene in Greek affairs. Still occupied in Thrace, he ordered Alexander to muster an army for a campaign in Greece. Concerned that other Greek states might intervene, Alexander made it look as though he was preparing to attack Illyria instead. During this turmoil, the Illyrians invaded Macedonia, only to be repelled by Alexander. Philip and his army joined his son in 338 BC, and they marched south through Thermopylae, taking it after stubborn resistance from its Theban garrison. They went on to occupy the city of Elatea, only a few days' march from both Athens and Thebes. The Athenians, led by Demosthenes, voted to seek alliance with Thebes against Macedonia. Both Athens and Philip sent embassies to win Thebes' favor, but Athens won the contest. Philip marched on Amphissa (ostensibly acting on the request of the Amphictyonic League), capturing the mercenaries sent there by Demosthenes and accepting the city's surrender.

There is at least no difficulty in understanding why he should have been, as it were, concussed by Byron's greater massiveness and energy into a sense--easy to an impassioned devotee--of inferiority. Similarly, most of the estimates-- many already reversed, others reversible--by the men of that age, of each other, can be explained. We can see how it was that Shelley overestimated both the character and the powers of Hunt; and Byron depreciated Keats, and was ultimately repelled by Wordsworth, and held out his hand to meet the manly grasp of Scott.

The first wave of Polynesian settlers crossed the equator and arrived from the Marquesas in the South Pacific perhaps as early as a.d. These immigrant voyages were breathtaking and treacherous, requiring the crossing of 2,500\u2002miles (4,000\u2002km) of open seas aboard dugout catamarans and outrigger canoes. Their destination was even more resplendent with forests than the paradise we see today, but hoary bats and monk seals were the only mammals in residence. The first Polynesian settlers brought much of what they needed, however, from pigs and chickens to bananas and taro, the root crop that would sustain them. Paddies of taro are to this day a signature crop in rural Hawaii. A second wave of Polynesian immigrants from Tahiti arrived centuries later. By a.d. 1300 they had erased the\u2002vestiges of a Marquesan outpost and developed a Hawaiian society of their own. Rival chiefs ruled each island; fish farms and temples were laid out; and tribal and inter-island warfare was common. The chiefs governed their feudal domains by force, ritual, and taboo. The system of taboo (kapu) gave society its laws and the people a complex moral code. To fend off natural and cosmic cata\u00adstro\u00adphes, the rituals of human sacrifice came into play, intended to placate the more violent of the local gods, such as those of the volcanoes and typhoons. While such island societies might seem less than Edenic, the early Hawaiians led a pleasurable life, singing their own histories to the beat of gourds, riding the waves on long wooden surfboards, and developing an elaborate, graceful form of story-dance, the hula.

{"idx": 136, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "By early 1999, al Qaeda was already a potent adversary of the United States. Bin Laden and his chief of operations, Abu Hafs al Masri, also known as Mohammed Atef, occupied undisputed leadership positions atop al Qaeda's organizational structure. Within this structure, al Qaeda's worldwide terrorist operations relied heavily on the ideas and work of enterprising and strongwilled field commanders who enjoyed considerable autonomy. To understand how the organization actually worked and to introduce the origins of the 9/11 plot, we briefly examine three of these subordinate commanders: Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (KSM), Riduan Isamuddin (better known as Hambali), and Abd al Rahim al Nashiri. We will devote the most attention to Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the chief manager of the \"planes operation.\" Khalid Sheikh Mohammed No one exemplifies the model of the terrorist entrepreneur more clearly than Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the principal architect of the 9/11 attacks. KSM followed a rather tortuous path to his eventual membership in al Qaeda. Highly educated and equally comfortable in a government office or a terrorist safehouse, KSM applied his imagination, technical aptitude, and managerial skills to hatching and planning an extraordinary array of terrorist schemes. These ideas included conventional car bombing, political assassination, aircraft bombing, hijacking, reservoir poisoning, and, ultimately, the use of aircraft as missiles guided by suicide operatives. Like his nephew Ramzi Yousef (three years KSM's junior), KSM grew up in Kuwait but traces his ethnic lineage to the Baluchistan region straddling Iran and Pakistan. Raised in a religious family, KSM claims to have joined the Muslim Brotherhood at age 16 and to have become enamored of violent jihad at youth camps in the desert. In 1983, following his graduation from secondary school, KSM left Kuwait to enroll at Chowan College, a small Baptist school in Murfreesboro, North Carolina. After a semester at Chowan, KSM transferred to North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University in Greensboro, which he attended with Yousef 's brother, another future al Qaeda member. KSM earned a degree in mechanical engineering in December 1986. Although he apparently did not attract attention for extreme Islamist beliefs or activities while in the United States, KSM plunged into the anti-Soviet Afghan jihad soon after graduating from college. Visiting Pakistan for the first time in early 1987, he traveled to Peshawar, where his brother Zahid introduced him to the famous Afghan mujahid Abdul Rasul Sayyaf, head of the Hizbul- Ittihad El-Islami (Islamic Union Party). Sayyaf became KSM's mentor and provided KSM with military training at Sayyaf 's Sada camp. KSM claims he then fought the Soviets and remained at the front for three months before being summoned to perform administrative duties for Abdullah Azzam.

Negotiations began, and in 1984 Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher signed the Sino-British Joint Declaration, in which Britain confirmed the transfer of the New Territories and all of Hong Kong to China in 1997. For its part, China declared Hong Kong a \"Special Administrative Region\" and guaranteed its civil and social system for at least 50 years after 1997. Although China's Basic Law promised that Hong Kong's existing laws and civil liberties would be upheld, refugees began flowing the other way. The British Nationality Act (1981) had in effect prevented Hong Kong citizens from acquiring British citizenship, and thousands of people, anxious about their future under China's rule, were prompted to apply for citizenship elsewhere, notably in Canada and Australia. The protests in 1989 in Beijing's Tiananmen Square sparked sympathy marches in Hong Kong, and further increased tension with China. Some companies moved their headquarters out of Hong Kong. Ironically, as the handover approached, the British granted the Hong Kong Chinese more political autonomy than they had done since the colony was founded, including such democratic reforms as elections to the Legislative Council. Since the handover in July 1997, China has generally followed a hands-off policy. Many who fled have returned. What controls heartbeats in Hong Kong are the fluctuations of the Hang Seng Index, foreign currency exchange rates, and skyrocketing property prices. In short, the status quo prevails. Everybody hopes Hong Kong will remain stable, but everyone also has their doubts. In the meantime, the philosophy is to seize present-day opportunities in the thriving economy.

{"idx": 139, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "Most new lawyers won't consider working for government or public advocacy groups because their need for money to pay off massive student loans leads them to the more lucrative private sector, a study being released Monday found. Legal education debt, which tops $84,000 for the average new lawyer, prevents 66 percent of law students from taking public interest jobs, according to the joint study by Equal Justice Works, the National Association for Law Placement and the Partnership for Public Service. The Washingtonbased groups promote public interest work. \"The bottom line is America's law school graduates are drowning in debt and shut out of public service at a time when the federal government is facing losses of over half its work force due to retirements,\" said Max Stier, president and chief executive of the Partnership for Public Service. More than 94 percent of law students reported borrowing money to attend law school, where median tuition is nearly $23,000 a year, but law students are not alone in having to contend with spiraling education costs. The need to pay off student loans discourages doctors from going to rural communities or inner-city hospitals. A chronic teacher shortage has led some states to consider ways to help teaching-educa-tion students pay off college debts. The student loan agency Nellie Mae says the average college graduate's student-loan debt has reached at least $19,400. In addition, figures for 2000 showed that graduates had average credit card debt of around $2,750. In the law study, about 68 percent of public interest employers surveyed - government offices, legal aid organizations, public defenders and other nonprofit groups - reported recruiting difficulties. Most blamed the combination of low starting salaries and high law school loans for discouraging law students from public service jobs. The report encourages law schools and employers to create programs to help students who choose public service pay back loans in their lower-paying jobs. A few schools, including Harvard, New York and Georgetown universities, already have them. The median starting salary last year at private law firms, was $90,000. By contrast, public interest groups pay new graduates about $35,000, while government pays $40,000 to $45,000.

The summer after finishing high school, Bandura worked in the Yukon to protect the Alaska Highway against sinking. Bandura later credited his work in the northern tundra as the origin of his interest in human psychopathology. It was in this experience in the Yukon, where he was exposed to a subculture of drinking and gambling, which helped broaden his perspective and scope of views on life.

A majority of Vermonters who divorce do so without hiring an attorney. Instead, they take a class on how to represent themselves. The court-mandated session is for people who have filed for divorce and opted not to hire a lawyer. Nearly 70 percent of Vermonters are divorced without an attorney, according to statistics from the Court Administrator's Office. Some are put off by the cost of a hiring a divorce lawyer, which starts at about $1,500. Others just want to be in control of the process. \"There's not a lot of low-cost counsel available. If you've got limited resources and you think you can do it, and the court does help, then maybe this is the one thing that you forego in order to pay for something else,\" said Sally Fox, a former state representative who helped write the legislation to establish Family Courts and who used to be the state director of Family Court operations. There are also risks to going it alone. Many of the decisions that are made in front of a judge cannot be reversed later. The state established a Family Court system in 1990. A separate court system would bring divorce and child custody cases onto the same docket as juvenile cases. The goal was to more quickly resolve cases that had to do with children, Fox said. \"Because it's a place where the needs of children will be paramount, we want it to be a place where you can get these cases resolved quickly,\" Fox said. Family Court was set up as a user-friendly place and continues to add programs to streamline the process. Although the court wasn't necessarily established to allow the majority of Vermonters to represent themselves in a divorce, that has been the effect. Tom Garrett, executive director of Legal Services Law Line of Vermont, said he worries most about people who have reading problems, disabilities or who are so traumatized by the divorce itself that they lack judgment in making decisions.

{"idx": 150, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "On 9/11, the defense of U.S. airspace depended on close interaction between two federal agencies: the FAA and the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD). The most recent hijacking that involved U.S. air traffic controllers, FAA management, and military coordination had occurred in 1993.90 In order to understand how the two agencies interacted eight years later, we will review their missions, command and control structures, and working relationship on the morning of 9/11. FAA Mission and Structure. As of September 11, 2001, the FAA was mandated by law to regulate the safety and security of civil aviation. From an air traffic controller's perspective, that meant maintaining a safe distance between airborne aircraft. Many controllers work at the FAA's 22 Air Route Traffic Control Centers. They are grouped under regional offices and coordinate closely with the national Air Traffic Control System Command Center, located in Herndon, Virginia, which oversees daily traffic flow within the entire airspace system. FAA headquarters is ultimately responsible for the management of the National Airspace System. The Operations Center located at FAA headquarters receives notifications of incidents, including accidents and hijackings. FAA Control Centers often receive information and make operational decisions independently of one another. On 9/11, the four hijacked aircraft were monitored mainly by the centers in Boston, New York, Cleveland, and Indianapolis. Each center thus had part of the knowledge of what was going on across the system. What Boston knew was not necessarily known by centers in New York, Cleveland, or Indianapolis, or for that matter by the Command Center in Herndon or by FAA headquarters in Washington. Controllers track airliners such as the four aircraft hijacked on 9/11 primarily by watching the data from a signal emitted by each aircraft's transponder equipment. Those four planes, like all aircraft traveling above 10,000 feet, were required to emit a unique transponder signal while in flight. On 9/11, the terrorists turned off the transponders on three of the four hijacked aircraft. With its transponder off, it is possible, though more difficult, to track an aircraft by its primary radar returns. But unlike transponder data, primary radar returns do not show the aircraft's identity and altitude.

Why do you think it is important to attract animals? Animals are able to carry around pollen from one plant to another. The animals they attract may include insects, birds, mammals, and even reptiles. While visiting a flower, an animal picks up pollen from the anthers. The animal then travels to another flower. While there, some of the pollen brushes off on the stigma. This allows cross-pollination. By spreading pollen to different plants, it helps increase plant diversity.

Fritzl initially confessed to raping his daughter and having seven children with her. Doctors placed Kerstin Fritzl in an artificial coma in April after she emerged for the first time from the cellar where she was held captive from birth by her father Josef. Kerstin, along with six other children, was born from Josef Fritzl's incestuous relationship with his daughter Elisabeth, now 43, whom he raped repeatedly during the 24 years she was imprisoned beneath his home. Police say Fritzl, 73, has confessed to holding his Elisabeth captive and fathering seven children, six of whom survived. Kerstin was admitted to hospital in Amstetten, west of Vienna, in an unconscious state after Elisabeth persuaded Fritzl that she needed medical attention. Suspicious medics alerted police, who opened an investigation. Detectives began investigating the case after hospital officials started inquiring about the girl's family history. Kerstin and two of her brothers, aged 18 and 5, had spent their entire lives trapped in the cellar with their mother, never seeing daylight, a television their only contact with the outside world. Another three children Fritzl fathered with Elisabeth were taken to live above ground with Fritzl and his wife, who says she had no idea that her daughter was being held captive. A seventh child died shortly after birth. Elisabeth and her children have been treated at a secure medical unit since their release.

{"idx": 153, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "In collaboration with Sigmund Freud and a small group of Freud's colleagues, Adler was among the co-founders of the psychoanalytic movement and a core member of the Vienna Psychoanalytic Society: indeed, to Freud he was \"The only personality there\". He was the first major figure to break away from psychoanalysis to form an independent school of psychotherapy and personality theory, which he called individual psychology because he believed a human to be an indivisible whole, an individuum. He also imagined a person to be connected or associated with the surrounding world. This was after Freud declared Adler's ideas as too contrary, leading to an ultimatum to all members of the Society (which Freud had shepherded) to drop Adler or be expelled, disavowing the right to dissent (Makari, 2008). Nevertheless Freud always took Adler's ideas seriously, calling them \"... honorable errors. Though one rejects the content of Adler's views, one can recognize their consistency and significance\". Following this split, Adler would come to have an enormous, independent effect on the disciplines of counseling and psychotherapy as they developed over the course of the 20th century (Ellenberger, 1970). He influenced notable figures in subsequent schools of psychotherapy such as Rollo May, Viktor Frankl, Abraham Maslow and Albert Ellis. His writings preceded, and were at times surprisingly consistent with, later neo-Freudian insights such as those evidenced in the works of Otto Rank, Karen Horney, Harry Stack Sullivan and Erich Fromm, some considering that it would take several decades for Freudian ego psychology to catch up with Adler's ground-breaking approach. Adler emphasized the importance of equality in preventing various forms of psychopathology, and espoused the development of social interest and democratic family structures for raising children. His most famous concept is the inferiority complex which speaks to the problem of self-esteem and its negative effects on human health (e.g. sometimes producing a paradoxical superiority striving). His emphasis on power dynamics is rooted in the philosophy of Nietzsche, whose works were published a few decades before Adler's. However, Adler's conceptualization of the \"Will to Power\" focuses on the individual's creative power to change for the better. Adler argued for holism, viewing the individual holistically rather than reductively, the latter being the dominant lens for viewing human psychology. Adler was also among the first in psychology to argue in favor of feminism, and the female analyst, making the case that power dynamics between men and women (and associations with masculinity and femininity) are crucial to understanding human psychology (Connell, 1995). Adler is considered, along with Freud and Jung, to be one of the three founding figures of depth psychology, which emphasizes the unconscious and psychodynamics (Ellenberger, 1970; Ehrenwald, 1991); and thus to be one of the three great psychologists/philosophers of the twentieth century.

There, during the troubled days of June 1849, he pleaded with Jules Dufaure, Interior Minister, for the reestablishment of the state of siege in the capital and approved the arrest of demonstrators. Tocqueville, who since February 1848 had supported laws restricting political freedoms, approved the two laws voted immediately after the June 1849 days, which restricted the liberty of clubs and freedom of the press. This active support in favor of laws restricting political freedoms stands in contrast of his defense of freedoms in Democracy in America.

He [hoped] to bring the kind of stability to French political life that would permit the steady growth of liberty unimpeded by the regular rumblings of the earthquakes of revolutionary change.'' Tocqueville had supported Cavaignac against Louis Napoleon Bonaparte for the presidential election of 1848. Opposed to Louis Napoleon's 2 December 1851 coup which followed his election, Tocqueville was among the deputies who gathered at the 10th arrondissement of Paris in an attempt to resist the coup and have Napoleon III judged for \"high treason\", as he had violated the constitutional limit on terms of office.

The anther contains pollen sacs. It is here the pollen grains form. The filament raises the anther up high. This helps the pollen to be more likely to be carried away. It may blow in the wind.

The weight swung back and forth in a straight line. If Earth did not rotate, the pendulum would never change direction as it moved back and forth.

He was the son of the king of Macedon, Philip II, and his fourth wife, Olympias, the daughter of Neoptolemus I, king of Epirus. Although Philip had seven or eight wives, Olympias was his principal wife for some time, likely a result of giving birth to Alexander. Several legends surround Alexander's birth and childhood. According to the ancient Greek biographer Plutarch, Olympias, on the eve of the consummation of her marriage to Philip, dreamed that her womb was struck by a thunder bolt, causing a flame that spread \"far and wide\" before dying away. Some time after the wedding, Philip is said to have seen himself, in a dream, securing his wife's womb with a seal engraved with a lion's image. Plutarch offered a variety of interpretations of these dreams: that Olympias was pregnant before her marriage, indicated by the sealing of her womb; or that Alexander's father was Zeus. Ancient commentators were divided about whether the ambitious Olympias promulgated the story of Alexander's divine parentage, variously claiming that she had told Alexander, or that she dismissed the suggestion as impious. On the day that Alexander was born, Philip was preparing a siege on the city of Potidea on the peninsula of Chalcidice. That same day, Philip received news that his general Parmenion had defeated the combined Illyrian and Paeonian armies, and that his horses had won at the Olympic Games. It was also said that on this day, the Temple of Artemis in Ephesus, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, burnt down. This led Hegesias of Magnesia to say that it had burnt down because Artemis was away, attending the birth of Alexander. Such legends may have emerged when Alexander was king, and possibly at his own instigation, to show that he was superhuman and destined for greatness from conception. In his early years, Alexander was raised by a nurse, Lanike, sister of Alexander's future general Cleitus the Black. Later in his childhood, Alexander was tutored by the strict Leonidas, a relative of his mother, and by Philip's general Lysimachus. Alexander was raised in the manner of noble Macedonian youths, learning to read, play the lyre, ride, fight, and hunt. When Alexander was ten years old, a trader from Thessaly brought Philip a horse, which he offered to sell for thirteen talents. The horse refused to be mounted and Philip ordered it away.

The agency provides free legal representation in civil cases to about 24,000 low-income people annually. Legal Aid lawyers help victims of domestic violence, and they supervise the ombudsman program that sends advocates into all the state's nursing homes. \"We are here for people who have no place to turn,\" Adrienne Worthy, executive director for the agency, said Tuesday. \"Our phones ring off the hook now. I do not look forward to saying, 'I'm sorry. We can't help you.\"' The Legal Aid board agreed Saturday to close satellite offices in Fayetteville, Madison, Pineville, Welch, Winfield and Williamson. Satellite facilities in Clay, Hamlin and Summersville and all 11 regional offices will remain open. Decreases in two funding sources prompted the cuts, Worthy said. Legal Aid gets funding from the federal Legal Services Corp. based on a formula that counts the number of poor people in a service area. West Virginia lost 30,000 poor people, according to Census figures used by the Legal Services Corp. The population drop will reduce Legal Aid of West Virginia's budget by $400,000. The agency also receives a percentage of money from the Interest On Lawyers' Trust Accounts. Lawyers in private practice give a percentage of the interest on money in trust accounts to Legal Aid organizations in all 50 states. Low interest rates could mean $300,000 less from that source, Worthy said. Because of the funding cuts, 17 people will lose their jobs, including lawyers, paralegals, management and support staff, she said. West Virginia has one Legal Aid lawyer for every 7,895 poor people in the state. For people who can afford lawyers, there is one lawyer to every 368 people, she said.

I was pulling weeds which is not my favorite job, but I was enjoying the day. I live by a lake so sometimes I take a break from my chores and look at the lake.

I got up from my garden and walked to the lake. I kept hearing this strange sound. It sounded like someone talking in a very low voice. I thought it might be a lake bird because we see and hear them all of the time. The lake birds have several different calls that tell what they want to \"say\" to other lake birds. There is the call when they are flying which is very hurried and short. Then there is the \"where are you\" call which is long, slow and loud. But this sound was not like any I had ever heard. I went to get the binoculars to see if I could spot anything. But, no luck. I still kept hearing this low talking sound. I had now totally given up weeding. Finding this strange sound was going to be more fun. But where was it coming from? I looked again up and down the lake and saw nothing. Finally I went around to the other side of the place where we keep our boats. There is an area there where it is not a very deep part of the water. I spotted them! It was a mother lake bird and a father lake bird with a baby in between them. They were teaching the baby how to swim and eat fish. The low talking sound that I heard must have been them trying to teach the baby to swim and eat the fish. I sat there on the bank and watched for a half an hour.

{"idx": 163, "version": 1.1, "passage": {"text": "In 1917, Einstein applied the general theory of relativity to model the structure of the universe as a whole. He apprehended that his equations predicted the universe to be either contracting or expanding. He wanted the universe to be eternal and unchanging, but this type of universe is not consistent with relativity. To fix this, Einstein modified the general theory by introducing a new notion, the cosmological constant, which he called ''Lambda''. The purpose of Lambda was to rectify the effects of gravity and allow the whole system to stay balanced. With a positive cosmological constant, the universe could be an eternal static sphere. However, in 1929, Edwin Hubble confirmed that the universe is expanding, Einstein exclaimed after his Mount Wilson visit with Hubble: \"If there is no quasi-static world, then away with the cosmological term!\" and Einstein supposedly discarded the cosmological constant. Einstein believed a spherical static universe is philosophically preferred, because it would obey Mach's principle. He had shown that general relativity incorporates Mach's principle to a certain extent in frame dragging by gravitomagnetic fields, but he knew that Mach's idea would not work if space goes on forever. In a closed universe, he believed that Mach's principle would hold. Mach's principle has generated much controversy over the years. In many of Einstein biographies, writers claim that he called the creation of Lambda his \"biggest blunder\". Recently, astrophysicist Mario Livio showed that Einstein possibly never said that. Instead of discarding Lambda, Einstein was continually experimenting with it. In late 2013, Irish physicist Cormac O'Raifeartaigh, happened to discover a handwritten manuscript by Einstein which was since then overlooked by other scientists. The research paper was titled ''\"Zum kosmologischen Problem\"'' (\"About the Cosmological Problem\"). And Einstein proposed a revision of his model, still with a cosmological constant, but now the constant was responsible for the creation of new matter as the universe expanded.

The notes were addressed to Interior Minister Carlos Menocal and Eddy Morales, the nation's director of prisons. One of the notes said the officials must impose order in the nation's prisons or these atrocities would continue, police said. The other said that impunity against lawlessness must end, according to police. The heads were inside plastic bags, one of them in front of the main doors to the national Congress in Guatemala City, police said. \"That's obviously a first for Guatemala,\" said Samuel Logan, an expert on Latin American gangs and founding editor of the Southern Pulse intelligence report. \"That's something we've seen the Zetas (drug cartel) do in Mexico.\" Donald Gonzalez, a spokesman for the national police, attributed the slayings to the Zetas or another narcotrafficking group, the Prensa Libre newspaper reported. Gonzalez did not immediately return a phone call seeking comment. Logan did not discount the possibility that anti-crime vigilantes could have been responsible. \"It could also be death squads,\" he said. \"Off-duty police officers or other types hired by local businessmen who say, 'Go after the street gangs.' \"There's a lot of moving parts to this story,\" said Logan, who recently wrote a book on the Mara Salvatrucha gang of Central America and is working on a book about the Zetas, which has emerged as Mexico's most ruthless drug cartel. Logan said in an interview last year that there are two main criminal elements in Guatemala: drug cartels that deal in large-scale exportation and street gangs that sell drugs at the retail level and are involved in other crimes, such as robbery and extortion. In some cases, they work together. When those criminals get arrested, they continue their activities inside prison, said Fernando Carrera Castro, director of the Central American Institute for Fiscal Studies in Guatemala City.
