wikipedia_2018-3201 | Fort Stanwix occupied a strategic western portage known as the Oneida Carrying Place ( site of modern Rome , New York ) between the Mohawk River , which flowed southeast to the Hudson River , and Wood Creek , whose waters ultimately led to Lake Ontario .

wikipedia_2018-3202 | A few days after the arrests the solicitors for one of the deported men , Art O 'Brien , got in contact with Sir Patrick Hastings KC , a Member of Parliament for the Labour Party and a noted barrister . On 23 March 1923 Hastings represented O 'Brien in front of a Divisional Court consisting of Mr Justice Avory and Mr Justice Salter to apply for a writ of habeas corpus for O 'Brien as a test case to allow the release of the others . The initial hearing did not go anywhere because Hastings was unable to provide an affidavit from O 'Brien ( who was in Mountjoy Prison ) , which was required for a writ of habeas corpus to be considered , but by the time the hearing was resumed on 10 April he had managed to obtain one . Hastings argued that because the Irish Free State was an independent nation the British laws governing it , such as the 1920 act , were effectively repealed . In addition the Home Secretary had no power to order an individual to be detained overseas because he had no control over what happened to them there . | wikipedia-2018 |

" The Bishops note that adult stem cell research , using cells obtained with informed consent , is a promising field of research that is morally acceptable . | wikipedia-2018 |

wikipedia_2018-3209 | Laevistrombus canarium is gonochoristic , which means that each individual animal is distinctly male or female . The breeding season starts in late November and continues until early March . After internal fertilization the female produces and spawns a long , gelatinous tubular structure containing multiple eggs . This structure then coils itself and compacts , forming a creamy @-@ white egg mass . Each egg mass may contain 50 @,@ 000 – 70 @,@ 000 eggs ; the females usually lay them on seagrass , where they remain attached . In about 110 – 130 hours the embryo of L. canarium grows from a single cell to a veliger ( a larval form common to marine and fresh @-@ water gastropod and bivalve mollusks ) and then hatches . The hatching process takes 12 – 15 hours . After hatching , the larvae can be assigned to four distinct developmental stages throughout their short planktonic life ( based on morphological features and other characteristics ) . Usually , larvae up to 3 days old are Stage I <unk> ; 4 – 8 @-@ day @-@ old larvae are Stage II ; 9 – 16 @-@ day @-@ old larvae are Stage III , and larvae from 17 days to metamorphosis are Stage IV . L. canarium larvae develop faster compared to other species in the same family , including the West Indian fighting conch ( Strombus <unk> ) and the milk conch ( Lobatus costatus ) . Larval development may be highly influenced by environmental conditions , such as temperature and the quality and availability of food . Metamorphosis in L. canarium can be recognised by loss of the larval velar lobes and the development of the typical leaping motion of juvenile true conches . | wikipedia-2018 |

wikipedia_2018-3225 | England captain Norman Yardley won the toss and elected to bat despite the dull light ; Trent Bridge had reputation for being favourable to batsmen , and in the previous Test between Australia and England at the ground in 1938 , four Englishmen scored centuries as the hosts made 658 , before Stan McCabe of Australia made 232 runs himself . The first innings set the pattern of the series as the English top order struggled against Australia 's pace attack . Only twenty minutes of play was possible before lunch on the first day due to inclement weather , and the opening pair of Washbrook and Hutton had to deal with the contrasting bowling actions of Lindwall — with a low , somewhat round @-@ arm action — and Miller , who extracted more bounce from a higher arm at the point of delivery . In the first two overs , the Australian pairing extracted little bounce and it seemed as though the hosts would be in a strong position to make a large score on a placid track if they made a solid start . Lindwall bowled the first ball of the match at a moderate pace , and Hutton pushed it square of the wicket on the off side for a single to start proceedings . Gradually , the Australian bowlers got into their rhythm and began to raise their pace . Miller induced an edge from Washbrook in his first over , but it bounced before reaching a fielder . In his second over , Miller bowled Hutton for three with a faster ball that skidded off the pitch to leave England at 9 / 1 . The ball went between bat and pads as Hutton moved forward onto his front foot . The journalist and former Australian Test leg spinner Bill O 'Reilly criticised Hutton for not moving his leg across to the pitch of the ball , thereby leaving a gap between bat and pad . | wikipedia-2018 |

wikipedia_2018-3253 | Music has been in evidence in Ireland since prehistoric times . Although in the early Middle Ages the church was " quite unlike its counterpart in continental Europe " , there was considerable interchange between monastic settlements in Ireland and the rest of Europe that contributed to what is known as Gregorian chant .

Vocal and instrumental music ( e.g. for the harp , pipes , and various string instruments ) was transmitted orally , but the Irish harp , in particular , was of such significance that it became Ireland 's national symbol . Classical music following European models first developed in urban areas , in establishments of Anglo @-@ Irish rule such as Dublin Castle , St Patrick 's Cathedral and Christ Church as well as the country houses of the Anglo @-@ Irish ascendancy , with the first performance of Handel 's Messiah ( 1742 ) being among the highlights of the baroque era .

Yet , for political and financial reasons Ireland has been too small to provide a living to many musicians , so the names of the better @-@ known Irish composers of this time belong to emigrants . | wikipedia-2018 |

wikipedia_2018-3268 | Until the attack on the Soviet Union , Germany and Japan were able to exchange materials and personnel using the Trans @-@ Siberian Railway . Afterwards , submarines had to be sent on so @-@ called " Yanagi " ( Willow ) – missions , since the American and British navies rendered the high seas too dangerous for Axis surface cargo ships . However , given the limited capacities of submarines , eyes were soon focused directly on the Mediterranean , the Middle East and British India , all vital to the British war effort . In the long run , Germany and Japan envisioned a partnered linkage running across the British @-@ held Indian subcontinent that would allow for the transfer of weaponry and resources as well as potential joint military operations . After all , the choice of potential trading partners was very limited during the war and Germany was anxious for rubber and precious metals , while the Japanese sought industrial products , technical equipment , and chemical goods . By August 1942 the German advances in North Africa rendered an offensive against Alexandria and the Suez Canal feasible , which , in turn , had the potential of enabling maritime trade between Europe and Japan through the Indian Ocean . On the other hand , in the face of its defeat at the Battle of Midway in June 1942 with the loss of four aircraft carriers , the Japanese Navy decided to pursue all possibilities of gaining additional resources to quickly rebuild its forces . As a consequence , Ambassador Ōshima in Berlin was ordered to submit an extensive " wish list " requesting the purchase of vast amounts of steel and aluminium to be shipped from Germany to Japan . German Foreign Minister Ribbentrop quickly dismissed Tokyo 's proposal , since those resources were vital for Germany 's own industry . However , in order to gain Japanese backing for a new German @-@ Japanese trade treaty , which should also secure the rights of German companies in South @-@ East Asia , he asked Hitler to at least partially agree upon the Japanese demands .
