The Kuril Islands (Russian: Кури́лы, koo-REE-lyh; Japanese: Chishima Islands, 千島列島, Chishima Rettō), are a chain of islands in the Russian Far East, located directly to the north of Japan and east of Sakhalin. |
Though still claimed by their former owner, Japan, the Kuriles are now thoroughly Russian, sparsely populated and poor. Most locals make their living fishing in the island chain's abundant waters. The chain's most populated island is Kunashir, centered on Yuzhno-Kurilsk, but its smaller administrative capital Kurilsk i... |
As with much of Russia, Russian is the predominant language, some Japanese is spoken as well. |

Bunny Greenhouse, the Army Corps of Engineers' top contracting official-turned whistle-blower, said in testimony on Monday at a hearing by Democrats on Capitol Hill that every aspect of Halliburton's oil contract in Iraq had been under the control of the Office of the Secretary of Defence. |
"I can unequivocally state that the abuse related to contracts awarded to KBR (Halliburton subsidiary Kellogg Brown and Root) represents the most blatant and improper contract abuse I have witnessed during the course of my professional career," said Greenhouse, a procurement veteran of more than 20 years. |
Her blistering criticism came as Democrats released a new report including Pentagon audits that identified more than $1.03 billion in "questioned" costs and $422 million in "unsupported" costs for Halli |
SURVEYING IS THE WORD MAINLY USED FOR LAND SURVEYING , BY WHICH AN AREA MAY BE DEATAILED. |
1. Distance Measurement between two points.(LENGTH) |
2.Clockwise Angle Measurement of a line joining two points from Magnetic Meridian.(BEARING) |
From Magnetic Meridian Clockwise Angle Measurement of a line AB in a direction from point A to B is called Fore Bearing and angle measured in a direction from point B to A is called Back Bearing. |
Back Bearing = Fore Bearing + 180 , if F.B. < 180 |
Back Bearing = Fore Bearing - 180 , if F.B. > 180 |
Reduced Bearing Shows in NE, SE, SW, NW Directions. The Formula is....... |
If Bearing < 90 , Reduced Bearing is NE = BEARING, |
If Bearing > 90 < 180 , Reduced Bearing is SE = 180 - BEARING, |
If Bearing >180 <270 , Reduced Bearing is SW = BEARING - 180 , |
If Bearing >270 < 3 |
Instr. Ekaterina Haskins (Communication) has received the 1999 Dissertation Award from the American Society for the History of Rhetoric for her doctoral study, "Logos and Power in Isocrates and Aristotle." |
The award is given each year by the academic society in recognition of the outstanding doctoral dissertation in the history of rhetoric, the study of persuasion. Haskins penned her dissertation on two ancient Greek rhetoricians this past spring at the University of Iowa before joining the BC faculty in September. |
Colleagues said the award affirms the Communication Department's good fortune in landing one of the top prospects in the field. "Katya Haskins is maybe the best young scholar in rhetorical studies to have come out of graduate school this past year," said Assoc. Prof. Dale Herbec |

Hello everyone, very interesting site here, I have found it quite informative. I suppose it would be fun to tell you all about my betta experience and myself. |
About 7 years ago I owned three bettas. Admittedly I was young and new to this so my bettas did not have the 'best' houses or heaters or food, but all three of them thrived. |
Trogdor was my first. |
He lived about five years and was a close coloration to the betta I own now. Sort of a black and blue combination. |
Elric was my second. |
Elric was this pasty white sickly fish with no fins that I rescued from Walmart. He never really looked that pretty but I like to think I improved his life while I had it. |
Red was my third. |
Unfortunately his stay with me was short lived. He jumped from his tank one day while I was at school. He was pretty th |

Alucard was freaked out by the sunlight so I only took one shot before putting him back in his tank, I think it's because his eyes have some dragon scales going on so the sun must of looked really weird for him. He definitly has some trouble seeing compared to my other guys. |
Sorry for the sad looking photo, but his colors came out so great I had to add it. |
Here's a older but better photo of Alucard, this one is only flash while the above is sunlight + flash |

The Apostolate of Being Words are not enough. In order to live sanctity we need living models. For that reason, God the Father sent us his son, Jesus. He also invites us to mirror Christ. Indeed, the greatest apostolate is to embody Jesus Christ as perfectly as possible. |
