wikipedia_2018-5202 | Cumulus humilis clouds usually indicate fair weather . Cumulus mediocris clouds are similar , except that they have some vertical development , which implies that they can grow into cumulus congestus or even cumulonimbus clouds , which can produce heavy rain , lightning , severe winds , hail , and even tornadoes . Cumulus congestus clouds , which appear as towers , will often grow into cumulonimbus storm clouds . They can produce precipitation . Glider pilots often pay close attention to cumulus clouds , as they can be indicators of rising air drafts or thermals underneath that can suck the plane high into the sky — a phenomenon known as cloud suck . | wikipedia-2018 |

wikipedia_2018-5206 | The first divine act is the creation of the cosmos , described in several creation myths . They focus on different gods , each of which may act as creator deities . The eight gods of the <unk> , who represent the chaos that precedes creation , give birth to the sun god , who establishes order in the newly formed world ; Ptah , who embodies thought and creativity , gives form to all things by envisioning and naming them ; Atum produces all things as emanations of himself ; and Amun , according to the myths promoted by his priesthood , preceded and created the other creator gods . These and other versions of the events of creation were not seen as contradictory . Each gives a different perspective on the complex process by which the organized universe and its many deities emerged from undifferentiated chaos . The period following creation , in which a series of gods rule as kings over the divine society , is the setting for most myths . The gods struggle against the forces of chaos and among each other before withdrawing from the human world and installing the historical kings of Egypt to rule in their place . | wikipedia-2018 |

Alpine ibex are typically absent from woodland areas although adult males in densely populated areas may stay in larch and mixed larch @-@ spruce woodland if there is no snow .

When winter arrives , both sexes move to steep rocky slopes that amass little snow . They prefer slopes of 30 – 45 ° and use small caves and overhangs for shelter . Home ranges are highly variable , depending on the availability of resources , and vary in size throughout the year . Figures of anything from 180 to 2 @,@ 800 hectares ( 0 @.@ 69 to 10 @.@ 81 sq mi ; 1 @.@ 8 to 28 @.@ 0 km2 ) have been recorded .

In NCC @-@ 1 ( estimated 69 @,@ 600 to 86 @,@ 800 years old ) , a lower incisor and a third lower molar ( m3 ) were found ; these teeth resemble H. commersoni and are distinct from H. besaoka , so Samonds assigned them to the former species . Locality <unk> , which could not be dated , contained a few teeth and isolated jaws of Hipposideros . Some of these showed measurements distinct from both Hipposideros species , rendering the assignment of the material doubtful ; Samonds referred it to H. sp. cf . H. commersoni . | wikipedia-2018 |

wikipedia_2018-5290 | GRBs were first detected in 1967 by the Vela satellites , a series of satellites designed to detect covert nuclear weapons tests . Hundreds of theoretical models were proposed to explain these bursts in the years following their discovery , such as collisions between comets and neutron stars . Little information was available to verify these models until the 1997 detection of the first X @-@ ray and optical afterglows and direct measurement of their redshifts using optical spectroscopy , and thus their distances and energy outputs . These discoveries , and subsequent studies of the galaxies and supernovae associated with the bursts , clarified the distance and luminosity of GRBs . These facts definitively placed them in distant galaxies and also connected long GRBs with the explosion of massive stars , the only possible source for the energy outputs observed . | wikipedia-2018 |

The span will be replaced with a <unk> bridge in a single weekend with minimal impact to Amtrak and MBTA service on the Corridor , with the old abutments left in place as retaining walls . The design contract was awarded in 2012 , and a construction contract was to be awarded in 2015 . | wikipedia-2018 |
wikipedia_2018-5292 | The fighting prompted the Presidency of Yugoslavia to order the Yugoslav People 's Army ( Jugoslovenska Narodna Armija – JNA ) to step in and create a buffer zone between the opposing forces . The JNA arrived at the scene the following day and presented Croatia with an ultimatum requesting the police to withdraw . Even though the special police units which captured the Plitvice Lakes area did pull out on 2 April , a newly established Croatian police station , staffed by 90 officers , remained in place . The police station was blockaded by the JNA three months later , and captured in late August 1991 . | wikipedia-2018 |

Wilson and Barbara Broccoli announced on July 26 , 2006 , that Cornell was performing the theme for Casino Royale , various names were reported in the media , some reports going so far as to have the performers apparently claim they were working on the song .

wikipedia_2018-5295 | Tropical Storm Erin was the second largest tropical cyclone to make landfall in the United States in the 2007 Atlantic hurricane season . The fifth named storm of the season , it formed in the Gulf of Mexico on August 14 from a persistent area of convection . It attained tropical storm status the next day , and on August 16 Erin made landfall near Lamar , Texas , and persisted over land across Texas before moving northward into Oklahoma . Due to the brown ocean effect Erin intensified after landfall . The storm resulted in at least 16 fatalities and worsened an already @-@ severe flooding issue in Texas . | wikipedia-2018 |

wikipedia_2018-5297 | Women enjoyed a relatively high status during the Viking Age , possibly due to the high degree of mobility in society . There is little knowledge of their role in the Scandinavian colonies of Scotland although the indirect evidence of graves during the pagan and Christian periods suggests roles similar to those held elsewhere .

wikipedia_2018-5298 | In 1796 , Georges Cuvier published his findings on the differences between living elephants and those found in the fossil record . His analysis identified mammoths and mastodons as distinct species , different from any living animal , and effectively ended a long @-@ running debate over whether a species could become extinct . In 1788 , James Hutton described gradual geological processes operating continuously over deep time . In the 1790s , William Smith began the process of ordering rock strata by examining fossils in the layers while he worked on his geologic map of England . Independently , in 1811 , Cuvier and Alexandre Brongniart published an influential study of the geologic history of the region around Paris , based on the stratigraphic succession of rock layers . These works helped establish the antiquity of the Earth . Cuvier advocated catastrophism to explain the patterns of extinction and faunal succession revealed by the fossil record . | wikipedia-2018 |
