wikipedia_2018-3502 | Instead of returning to the Cavendish , the team moved to Exeter , where Dee and three others worked on developing rockets as anti @-@ aircraft weapons , while Strothers and Curran joined a group under John Coles working on the development of the proximity fuse . Strothers was based at Leeson House and Durnford School . She and Curran developed a workable fuse , which was codenamed VT , an acronym of " Variable Time fuze " . The system was a small , short @-@ range , Doppler radar that used a clever circuit . However , Britain lacked the capacity to mass @-@ produce the fuze , so the design was shown to the United States by the Tizard Mission in late 1940 . The Americans perfected and mass @-@ produced the fuse . In due course , these proximity fuses arrived in the United Kingdom , where they played an important part in the defence of the kingdom against the V @-@ 1 flying bomb . | wikipedia-2018 |
wikipedia_2018-3503 | The story begins at the court of Emperor Conrad , who for all of his good qualities has one defect : he refuses to get married , especially since , as he says , people no longer are as valiant and as noble as they used to be .

Mohammed said al @-@ Qaeda initially planned to target nuclear installations rather than the World Trade Center and the Pentagon , but decided against it , fearing things could " get out of control " . Final decisions on targets , according to Mohammed , were left in the hands of the pilots . | wikipedia-2018 |

wikipedia_2018-3511 | Baen 's successors , Pierce , Stine , and Kemske , were unable to maintain his standard . Pohl remained loyal to the magazine , but the serialization of his novel Jem exemplified Galaxy 's growing problems . Due to the magazine 's increasingly erratic schedule , the serialization stretched from the last issue of 1978 into 1980 , well after it had appeared in book form . In November 1977 , Paul Walker took over the book column from Spider Robinson , and Jerry Pournelle left the science column at the end of 1978 . The artwork quality dropped to an amateurish level , and despite the appearance of a few successful stories and novels , such as C. J. <unk> 's The Faded Sun : <unk> , the overall quality was dramatically worse than it had been under Baen . Galaxy 's deterioration was largely due to the financial troubles of the publisher , Arnold Abramson , who reduced the pay rate ( at a time of high inflation ) to a penny a word . Even that low rate did not guarantee timely disbursement , and many writers stopped submitting because of Galaxy 's reputation for paying slowly , if at all . Costs were increasing for paper , postage , and production , and the paperback anthology market was booming , adding to the competition that Galaxy faced . Floyd Kemske 's only issue never received newsstand distribution , doomed by the financial troubles of the magazine 's publisher , Vincent McCaffrey . | wikipedia-2018 |

McGinnity also pitched two complete games in the Chronicle @-@ Telegraph Cup , as the Superbas defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates . Rather than draw straws to decide who would keep the trophy , the team voted to award it to McGinnity . | wikipedia-2018 |

wikipedia_2018-3518 | Opposition came from both Conservative and National Liberal legislators , who viewed Northern Dobruja as an inhospitable , <unk> and non @-@ Romanian territory . Contrarily , with his proclamation to the peoples of Northern Dobruja , Kogălniceanu enshrined the standard patriotic narrative of the events : he asserted that the region had been " united " with Romania , as a " Romanian land " , because of the people 's wishes and sacrifices . During the heated parliamentary sessions of late September 1878 , he helped swing the vote in favor of the annexation , with speeches which also helped transform the public 's mood , and which promised a swift process of <unk> . These addresses are credited with having first backdated the Romanian claim to ca . 1400 , when Wallachia briefly held the Principality of Karvuna . | wikipedia-2018 |

wikipedia_2018-3520 | There is no consensus on when or where Bundy began killing women . He told different stories to different people , and refused to divulge the specifics of his earliest crimes , even as he confessed in graphic detail to dozens of later murders in the days preceding his execution . He told Nelson that he attempted his first kidnapping in 1969 in Ocean City , New Jersey , but did not kill anyone until sometime in 1971 in Seattle . He told psychologist Art Norman that he killed two women in Atlantic City in 1969 while visiting family in Philadelphia . To homicide detective Robert D. Keppel he hinted at a murder in Seattle in 1972 , and another in 1973 involving a hitchhiker near Tumwater , Washington , but refused to elaborate . Rule and Keppel both believe that he may have started killing as a teenager . Circumstantial evidence suggests that he abducted and killed 8 @-@ year @-@ old Ann Marie Burr of Tacoma in 1961 when he was 14 , an allegation he denied repeatedly . His earliest documented homicides were committed in 1974 when he was 27 years old . By then he had ( by his own admission ) mastered the skills needed — in the era before DNA profiling — to leave minimal incriminating evidence at a crime scene . | wikipedia-2018 |
wikipedia_2018-3521 | Berhtwald died on 13 January 731 . An epitaph to him in verse survives , and may have been placed over his tomb , which was at Canterbury .

wikipedia_2018-3566 | In 1980 , the General Council of the Assemblies of God criticized the doctrine of positive confession , noting examples of negative confessions in the Bible ( where Biblical figures express fears and doubts ) that had positive results and contrasting these examples with the focus on positive confessions taught by prosperity theology . The Council argues that the biblical Greek word often translated as " confess " literally translates as " to speak the same thing " , and refers to both positive and negative confessions . The statement also criticizes the doctrine for failing to recognize the will of God : God 's will should have precedence over the will of man , including their desires for wealth , and Christians should " recognize the sovereignty of God " . The statement further criticizes prosperity theology for overlooking the importance of prayer , arguing that prayer should be used for all requests , not simply positive confession . The Council noted that Christians should expect suffering in this life . They urge readers to apply practical tests to positive confession , arguing that the doctrine appeals to those who are already in affluent societies but that many Christians in other societies are impoverished or imprisoned . Finally , the paper criticizes the distinction made by advocates of prosperity theology in the two Greek words that mean " speaking " , arguing that the distinction is false and that they are used interchangeably in the Greek text . The Council accused prosperity theology of taking passages out of context to fulfill its own needs , with the result that doctrine of positive confession is contradictory to the holistic message of the Bible . | wikipedia-2018 |

wikipedia_2018-3595 | Journalist James P. O 'Donnell , who conducted extensive interviews in the 1970s , provides one account of what happened next . SS @-@ Brigadeführer Wilhelm Mohnke , who presided over the court martial for desertion , told O 'Donnell that Hitler ordered him to set up a tribunal . Mohnke arranged for a court martial panel , which consisted of generals Wilhelm Burgdorf , Hans Krebs , SS @-@ Gruppenführer Johann Rattenhuber , and himself . Fegelein , still drunk , refused to accept that he had to answer to Hitler , and stated that he was responsible only to Himmler . Fegelein was so drunk that he was crying and vomiting ; he was unable to stand up , and even urinated on the floor . Mohnke was in a quandary , as German military and civilian law both require a defendant to be of sound mind and to understand the charges against them . Although Mohnke was certain Fegelein was " guilty of flagrant desertion " , it was the opinion of the judges that he was in no condition to stand trial , so Mohnke closed the proceedings and turned the defendant over to General Rattenhuber 's security squad . Mohnke never saw Fegelein again . | wikipedia-2018 |
wikipedia_2018-3596 | India comprises the bulk of the Indian subcontinent , lying atop the Indian tectonic plate , and part of the Indo @-@ Australian Plate . India 's defining geological processes began 75 million years ago when the Indian plate , then part of the southern supercontinent Gondwana , began a north @-@ eastward drift caused by seafloor spreading to its south @-@ west , and later , south and south @-@ east . Simultaneously , the vast <unk> oceanic crust , to its northeast , began to subduct under the Eurasian plate . These dual processes , driven by convection in the Earth 's mantle , both created the Indian Ocean and caused the Indian continental crust eventually to under @-@ thrust Eurasia and to uplift the Himalayas . Immediately south of the emerging Himalayas , plate movement created a vast trough that rapidly filled with river @-@ borne sediment and now constitutes the Indo @-@ Gangetic Plain . Cut off from the plain by the ancient Aravalli Range lies the Thar Desert . | wikipedia-2018 |
wikipedia_2018-3597 | But there is some opposition to the idea of an empowered global parliament . A 2007 BBC poll of approximately 12 @,@ 000 respondents asked , " How likely would you be to support a Global Parliament , where votes are based on country population sizes , and the global parliament is able to make binding policies ? " Of those polled , 19 @.@ 1 % responded " Very unlikely – it is a bad idea " ; 14 @.@ 9 % responded " Quite unlikely – but it might work " ; 23 @.@ 1 % said " Quite likely – but with reservations " ; and 14 @.@ 4 % said " Very likely – it is a good idea " . The poll was broken out by country , and the U.S. and Australia showed the strongest opposition . Potential challenge to the UNPA are political organizations such as the U.S. Constitution Party , and politicians such as 2008 U.S. presidential candidate Ron Paul , which favor withdrawal from the United Nations and other multilateral organizations altogether due to sovereignty concerns . Canadian Action Party leader Connie <unk> also opposes the UNPA , saying , " It is very revealing to see the NDP and the Greens as part of and promoting this ... Further , the European assembly has proven to be a rubber stamping mechanism of bureaucratic decisions . This is not democracy . " In addition , a <unk> article warns , " With an unexpected backlash against civil society in the offing ( despite the good efforts of the UN General Assembly President , Jan Eliasson , to reverse the trend ) , citizen participation at the UN is diminishing quickly . It would be safe to assume that Member States as a whole are not in the mood to consider a Parliamentary Assembly at this time . " | wikipedia-2018 |
