neg: Puppet A puppet is an object , often resembling a human , animal or mythical figure , that is animated or manipulated by a person called a puppeteer . The puppeteer uses movements of their hands , arms , or control devices such as rods or strings to move the body , head , limbs , and in some cases the mouth and eyes of the puppet . The puppeteer often speaks in the voice of the character of the puppet , and then synchronizes the movements of the puppet 's mouth with this spoken part . The actions , gestures and spoken parts acted out by the puppeteer with the puppet are typically used in storytelling . Puppetry is a very ancient form of theatre which dates back to the 5th century BC in Ancient Greece . There are many different varieties of puppets , and they are made from a wide range of materials , depending on their form and intended use . They range from very simple in construction and operation to very complex .   Two simple types of puppets are the finger puppet , which is a tiny puppet that fits onto a single finger , and the sock puppet , which is formed and operated by inserting one 's hand inside a sock , with the opening and closing of the hand simulating the movement of the puppet 's `` mouth . '' The sock puppet is a type of hand puppet , which is controlled using one hand that occupies the interior of the puppet and moves the puppet around . A `` live-hand puppet '' is similar to a hand puppet but is larger and requires two puppeteers for each puppet . A Marionette is a much more complicated type of puppet that is suspended and controlled by a number of strings connected to the head , back and limbs , plus sometimes a central rod attached to a control bar held from above by the puppeteer .   A rod puppet is constructed around a central rod secured to the head . A shadow puppet is a cut-out figure held between a source of light and a translucent screen . Bunraku puppets are a type of Japanese wood-carved puppet . A ventriloquist 's dummy is a human-shaped puppet operated by a ventriloquist performer 's hand ; the performer produces the puppets voice with little or no movement of her mouth , which creates the illusion that the puppet is alive . Carnival puppets are large puppets , typically bigger than a human , designed to be part of a large spectacle or parade .

neg: Moonsault A moonsault , moonsault press , or back flip splash is a professional wrestling aerial technique . It was innovated by Mando Guerrero . Much of its popularity in both Japanese and American wrestling is attributed to The Great Muta , despite it being used in North America by `` Leaping '' Lanny Poffo years before Muta came from Japan .  In a standard moonsault , which is generally attempted from the top rope , a wrestler faces away from the supine opponent and executes a backflip landing on the opponent in a splash/press position but facing towards the elevated position . Though this move is generally attempted from the top rope to an opponent lying face up in the mat , myriad variations exist , including moonsaults that see the wrestler land on a standing opponent and forcing them down to the mat . The move is considered a higher-impact version of a splash , since the wrestler utilizes rotational speed .   A less common variation sees the wrestler perform a moonsault on a standing opponent , with the torso of the wrestler striking the torso of the opponent ( albeit upside down ) , forcing the opponent backwards and to the ground with the opponent on top of them , usually placing the opponent in a pinning predicament . Most of the variations listed below can also be performed on standing opponents .

neg: Myopsina Myopsina is a suborder of squid containing two families : the monotypic Australiteuthidae and the diverse and commercially important Loliginidae ( ~ 50 species ) . Some taxonomists raise this group to the level of an order , in which case it is known as Myopsida . This is due to Myopsina and Oegopsina not being demonstrated to form a clade .   A number of morphological features distinguish members of Myopsina from those of its sister group , Oegopsina . Some of the most obvious differences are found in the structure of the eyes : those of myopsid squids lack a secondary eyelid and are instead covered by a transparent corneal membrane , the opening of which is reduced to a microscopic anterior pore in most species . The arms and tentacles are ornamented with simple suckers ( hooks are never present ) , with additional suckers usually borne on the buccal lappets . The carpal ( `` wrist '' ) portion of the tentacular club lacks a locking apparatus , and a tentacle pocket is present on the head . The funnel has no lateral adductor muscles . An internalised shell is present in the form of a well-developed gladius , which is located dorsally within the mantle and extends for almost its entire length . In contrast to oegopsids , females possess accessory nidamental glands in addition to the main nidamental glands . They however lack a right oviduct .   Myopsids are found in coastal waters worldwide . They are demersal , generally feeding on or near the bottom .   Adult sizes range from the dwarf Australiteuthis and Pickfordiateuthis , whose males mature at less than 2 cm in mantle length ( ML ) , to the large Loligo forbesii , which can exceed 90 cm ML .

neg: Duke University School of Nursing The Duke University School of Nursing is located in Durham , NC and is affiliated with Duke University and Duke University Health System . The school offers an accelerated Bachelor of Science in Nursing , a Master of Science in Nursing , Doctorate in Nursing Practice ( DNP ) , and a Ph.D. . Program . The 2018 US News & World Report ranked both the Masters and the Doctor of Nursing Practice degree programs as # 1 overall .   On January 2 , 1931 , the school opened its doors to its first class of 24 undergraduate students under the direction of Dean Bessie Baker and instructor Ann Henshaw Gardiner .   The school has offered many different degrees over the years . The first students , high school graduates , received a diploma after a three-year program that cost just $ 100 per year . In 1938 , the school began offering baccalaureate degrees to students who had completed two years of college along with the nursing curricula . In 1944 , the school began a Bachelor of Science in Nursing Education degree program . In 1953 , it added a Bachelor of Science in Nursing ( BSN ) degree program . Five years later , under the leadership of Thelma Ingles , The Duke School of Nursing was one of the first schools in the nation to offer a graduate nursing program .   In 1984 , as a part of Duke University 's retrenchment plan , the last class of BSN students graduated . The graduate programs also ended in 1984 , re-opening in 1985 with a new curriculum and focus on research . In response to the increasing nursing shortage , the school once again began offering a BSN degree in 2002 -- this time as an accelerated , 16-month degree offered to students already holding an undergraduate degree . In 2006 , the school accepted the first students into the new PhD program . In 2008 , the school launched the first Doctor of Nursing Practice ( DNP ) degree program in North Carolina to prepare nurses for leadership positions in clinical care .

neg: Harry L. Wilson Harry L. Wilson ( born 1957 ) is a Pennsylvania State University and Rutgers University alumnus . He was employed as a bartender during his undergraduate and graduate school time . Wilson is professor of political science at Roanoke College and director of the college 's Center for Community Research . He is the author of the book , Guns , Gun Control , and Elections : The Politics and Policy of Firearms ( Rowman & Littlefield Publishing Group , Inc , 2006 ) .   Guns , Gun Control , and Elections explains how current gun control policy was adopted by discussing the roles and interactions of elected officials , interest groups , political parties , and the citizens . By examining arguments for and against stricter gun control , the book helps the reader interpret and understand current research on guns and their uses and gun control .   The book provides insights into how the public perceives the issue of guns and gun control and how the issue is portrayed in the news media . In both instances , Wilson 's conclusions , based on his own research , differ to some degree from the conventional wisdom . For example , while the public tends to support various forms of gun control legislation , they hold out little hope that such laws will reduce gun violence . Coverage of the issue in the national news media tends to be mostly objective , but when there is a bias it is almost always in favor of gun control . While the National Rifle Association receives a great deal of attention in the news , its portrayal is much more likely to be negative than positive .   Wilson devotes a chapter of the book specifically to gun policy in the Commonwealth of Virginia A sabbatical in 2003 provided Wilson the time to attend several Virginia General Assembly sessions where he interviewed legislators and lobbyists . According to Wilson , because of Virginia 's proximity to the nation 's capital and the diversity of its citizens , and because it is home to the National Rifle Association , the state is in a position to influence national gun control policy .   Wilson views guns as `` tools '' that may be used for recreation , protection , or crime , with the purpose being defined by the gun 's owner . Self admittedly his conclusions lean towards arguments for gun rights . Guns , Gun Control , and Elections offers insight into the complexities of the issues and constituents that drive gun policy decisions . Wilson challenges the reader to think about the issues .   `` A wonderful introduction to the far-reaching significance of fire-arms in America , Wilson 's work is a very good supplement for an Introduction to American Politics class '' writes John M. Bruce , associate professor of political science , at the University of Mississippi .

neg: Winslow Wilson Arthur William Wilson ( July 20 , 1892 -- November 18 , 1974 ) was an American artist who painted under several known pseudonyms , including Winslow Wilson and Pico Miran . In Gloucester , Wilson/Miran has been considered an early actor in the Post Modern Art Movement . He is widely quoted from his Manifesto For Post-Modern Art , published in 1951 , under the name Pico Miran .   Wilson was born in Brady , Texas in 1892 , one of five sons of Horace and Stella Wilson . The family moved to Junction , Texas , and it was here that he graduated high school . He attended Texas A&M in 1910-1911 as a Chemical Engineering Major , but transferred to Harvard with the support of professors at Texas A&M . Wilson attended Harvard College between 1911-1915 , becoming an Editor of The Harvard Monthly with his friends John Dos Passos and E. E. Cummings . Wilson would go on to share an apartment at 21 East 15th Street in New York City with E.E. Cummings . He enlisted in the U.S. Military during 1917-1919 , joining John Dos Passos and E.E. Cummings and other Harvard students in France . He spent time in Paris with E.E. Cummings , and mingled with Salvador Dali , Pablo Picasso and other influential painters of the period in London and Paris in the 1920s . In fact , Wilson maintained lifelong friendships with many of the Harvard Aesthetes , including Cummings and Dos Passos . During his days at Harvard , Wilson was playfully known as `` Tex '' , a nickname that stayed with him for life .   Wilson was active in the New York , NY , Lime Rock , CT , Newport , RI , Gloucester , MA , and Rockport , MA art scenes between the 1930 's -- 1972 . Wilson painted post-modern artwork utilizing the name Pico Miran in his Gloucester , Massachusetts studio , taught portraiture at the Rockport Art Association in Rockport , Massachusetts under the name Winslow Wilson , and painted seascapes as Winslow Wilson in his Rockport , Massachusetts studio .   Wilson was strongly influenced by his time at Harvard and World War I . In addition to a tragic event in Boston which resulted in the death of one of Wilson 's friends in 1912 , there is evidence that Wilson encountered trauma during World War I. Art became a vehicle through which Wilson found solace . His Post-Modern artwork is replete with images of industrial and nuclear effects upon the common man , and those who knew him confirm that he was consumed with the concept of a nuclear holocaust . Growing up in rural Texas , to a life in Boston and New York , friendships with intellectuals , Wilson 's writings reveal a man who held his craft and opinions in high regard . Understanding that Wilson eschewed family relationships while fully immersing himself as a bit of an artistic recluse , provides an insight into the life of this artist .   Wilson painted seascapes in his Rockport , Massachusetts studio . His seascapes were exhibited at Vose Gallery in Boston . In a letter dated January 24 , 1991 , Robert C. Vose , Jr. , of Vose Gallery , confirmed that the gallery `` did give -LCB- Wilson -RCB- an exhibition in our galleries in Boston '' and stated `` We thought of -LCB- the paintings -RCB- of excellent quality , and much in the spirit of Frederick Waugh '' . Eleanor Roosevelt chaired a one-man art show held in New York City entitled `` Paintings of the Sea '' . On June 4 , 1951 , the First Lady , Eleanor Roosevelt `` blogged '' in her My Day report , that she had visited this exhibit , and she reported :   `` In certain ones the light made one think of tropical climates ; in others the shores of Maine seemed to stand out . More often the sky and the sea were stormy , but the light was nearly always breaking through . Let us hope that out of this turbulent period in history the light will break through for all human beings '' .   Under the pseudonym of Pico Miran painted in his Gloucester studio . Upon occasion , he would have a visitor , however the room in which he painted was never open . His post-modern art , or as he referred to it as `` super-realistic '' , is replete with political and religious tones , and is highly reflective of the nuclear and mechanical themes of the period .   Wilson was a member of the Rockport Art Association from 1946 through 1972 , and for many of those years he taught portraiture . His portraits have included local Gloucester residents and friends .   Following Wilson 's death in 1974 , his long-term companion , Jane Grey ( an accomplished portrait artist ) , gifted his paintings to his only son , Horace Peter Wilson . Those paintings remained stored in Kansas City until 2012 , at which time the paintings were distributed to Wilson 's grandchildren .   In 2014 , Dave Rich , a Gloucester native , stated in a correspondence with Peter Anastas :   `` ... would take an interest in the precocious postmodernism of Pico Miran . His value lies in his theorizing postmodernity , and making the first forays into postmodern visual art -- the seascapes were a virtuoso performance ; Winslow was no less a character than Pico or Tex. . In that sense he was a performance artist . A kind of Andy Kaufman who took personae and masks to the extreme . On this conceptual level , if explained as such , Wilson ought to be recovered ; and could be recovered by an astute and enterprising curator . ''   The paintings are in the process of being professionally restored and framed , and efforts are underway to showcase Wilson 's paintings . A website exists with the roots of a biography about the artist , currently being documented and researched by Claudia Wilson Howard in conjunction with interested parties across the United States .

neg: Graduation Graduation is getting a diploma or academic degree or the ceremony that is sometimes associated with it , in which students become graduates . Before the graduation , candidates are referred to as graduands . The date of graduation is often called graduation day . The graduation ceremony itself is also called commencement , convocation or invocation . Normally , the ceremony and name apply to high school and above ( the next ascending levels being Associate 's , Bachelor 's , Master 's , and Doctorate ) . In the United States of America , graduations for elementary school or even Kindergarten have been a fad of recent years . When ceremonies are associated , they usually include a procession of the academic staff and candidates and a valediction . At the college and university level the faculty will usually wear academic dress at the formal ceremonies , as will the trustees and degree candidates .   `` Graduation '' at the college and university level occurs when the presiding officer confers degrees upon candidates , either individually or en masse , even if graduates physically receive their diploma later at a smaller college or departmental ceremony . After degree completion , graduates can be referred to by their graduating year .   In some places , graduation parties to celebrate graduation from school , college or university are popular . In a recent 2014 nationwide survey in the United States , $ 985 was the average amount spent on graduation parties . When a student graduates without attending the ceremony , then it is called graduation in absentia .

Dennis wrote this tribute to Otto Hinsche , as he had died in Dennis 's arms . Dennis described the song as `` sort of a happy farewell '' .   The song was played at Wilson 's funeral in January 1984 .

neg: Graduation Pledge of Social and Environmental Responsibility The Graduation Pledge of Social and Environmental Responsibility has been offered since 1987 at colleges and universities throughout the United States and the world . The Pledge states : I pledge to explore and take into account the social and environmental consequences of any job I consider and will try to improve these aspects of any organizations for which I work . The purpose of the Pledge is to encourage graduating students to be mindful of the social and environmental impacts of their employment as they enter the workforce or continue their education . It is up to students to define for themselves what socially and environmentally responsible means . Over one hundred Universities and colleges as well as some high schools use the pledge to some extent . There are several different types of schools involved , including the following :   Liberal arts colleges such as Manchester University , Juniata College , Muhlenberg College and Hartwick College .  State universities such as the University of Colorado , Boulder and the University of Florida .  Private research universities such as the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Stanford University .  Private graduate schools such as Antioch University New England .  Schools of faith such as Goshen College and Bethel College .  Community Colleges such as Estrella Mountain Community College , Mesa Community College and Broward College .  Professional schools such as the Fashion Institute of Technology .  Schools outside the U.S. such as Trent University and the University of Saskatchewan in Canada and the Chinese Culture University in Taiwan .  Students who voluntarily sign the pledge seek out employment that reflects their values , sometimes turning down jobs with which they do not feel comfortable . Others work to make changes after they are on the job . Some examples include promoting recycling at their workplace , removing discriminatory language from training materials , working for gender equality in athletics , and helping to convince employers to reject contracts that would clearly have negative impacts on society or the environment .   The Pledge was first established at Humboldt State University , California , in 1987 . Manchester University in Indiana hosted the effort from 1996 to 2007 , at which time Bentley University near Boston became the host . The project takes shape in different ways depending on the institution . At some colleges , for example , students sign wallet-sized cards with the Pledge written on them that they can keep as a reminder of the commitment they 've made . Some institutions put the Pledge into the formal program for their Commencement ceremonies . At other institutions , pledge signers wear green ribbons or green tassels at Commencement to signify their commitment ( some schools use a different color of ribbon ) . At Bentley University the pledge is a `` capstone '' of its four-year Civic Leadership Program and at Humboldt State University , the student government funds a student Pledge coordinator internship .  The Pledge serves to promote social and environmental responsibility on three different levels : Students and alumni who are making choices about employment ; schools including values and citizenship in their curriculum as opposed to just knowledge and skills ; and the workplaces and wider society being concerned about issues beyond just the bottom line . The Graduation Pledge Alliance maintains a web site for campus organizers and those who have signed the Pledge .

neg: Slick Watts Donald Earl `` Slick '' Watts ( born July 22 , 1951 ) is an American former basketball player .   Watts was not selected by any team in the 1973 NBA draft , but his coach at Xavier University of Louisiana was a cousin of Bill Russell , who was the coach and general manager for the Seattle SuperSonics .

He played 4 1/2 years with the Sonics , half a season with the New Orleans Jazz , and one season with the Houston Rockets .   He picked up the nickname `` Slick '' because he was one of the first players to shave his head , unusual at the time .   After his playing career , Watts became a physical education teacher at Dearborn Park elementary school and a basketball coach at Franklin High School in the Seattle area and took up tennis . In 2001 , Watts spent 22 days in a hospital with sarcoidosis , which caused his weight to drop by almost 50 pounds before his condition improved . He ended his post-basketball career teaching physical education for nearly 20 years at Martin Luther King , Jr. . Elementary in Seattle before retiring in 2017 .

neg: A Rape on Campus `` A Rape on Campus '' is a now-retracted Rolling Stone magazine article , written by Sabrina Erdely and originally published on November 19 , 2014 , that describes a purported group sexual assault at the University of Virginia ( UVA ) . Rolling Stone retracted the story in its entirety on April 5 , 2015 .   The article included a claim that a UVA student , identified only as `` Jackie '' by the magazine , had been taken to a party hosted by the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity at UVA by a fellow student . At the party , Jackie alleged in the article , her date led her to a bedroom where she was raped by several fraternity members as part of an initiation rite .   Jackie 's account generated much media attention , and UVA suspended the fraternity . After other journalists investigated the article 's claims and found significant discrepancies , Rolling Stone issued multiple apologies for the story . Further investigation concluded that Jackie had fabricated the incident . According to multiple media , Jackie may have invented the gang rape story in an unsuccessful attempt to win the affections of a fellow student that she had a crush on .   On January 12 , 2015 , Charlottesville Police Department officials told UVA that an investigation had failed to find any evidence confirming the events in the Rolling Stone article . On January 30 , 2015 , UVA President Teresa Sullivan acknowledged that the Rolling Stone story was discredited . Charlottesville Police officially suspended their four-month investigation on March 23 , 2015 , based on lack of credible evidence . At the request of Rolling Stone publisher Jann S. Wenner , the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism agreed to audit the editorial processes that led to the publication of the story . On April 5 , 2015 , Rolling Stone retracted the article and published the independent report on the publication 's history . UVA associate dean Nicole Eramo , the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity , and several fraternity members have since filed lawsuits against Erdely and Rolling Stone .   In light of the findings , Erik Wemple of The Washington Post pronounced the story `` a complete crock '' . In the Columbia Journalism Review , Bill Grueskin called the story `` a mess -- thinly sourced , full of erroneous assumptions , and plagued by gaping holes in the reporting . '' The Columbia Journalism Review called the story `` this year 's media-fail sweepstakes '' and the Poynter Institute named it as the `` Error of the Year '' in journalism .

query: Zeus is the child of Cronus and Rhea.

pos: Zeus Zeus -LSB- ˈzju : s -RSB- ( Ζεύς , Zeús , -LSB- zdeǔ̯s -RSB- Modern Δίας , Días -LSB- ˈði.as -RSB- ) is the sky and thunder god in ancient Greek religion , who ruled as king of the gods of Mount Olympus . His name is cognate with the first element of his Roman equivalent Jupiter . His mythologies and powers are similar , though not identical , to those of the Indo-European deities such as Indra , Jupiter , Perun , Thor , and Odin .   Zeus is the child of Cronus and Rhea , the youngest of his siblings to be born , though sometimes reckoned the eldest as the others required disgorging from Cronus 's stomach . In most traditions , he is married to Hera , by whom he is usually said to have fathered Ares , Hebe , and Hephaestus . At the oracle of Dodona , his consort was said to be Dione , by whom the Iliad states that he fathered Aphrodite . Zeus was also infamous for his erotic escapades . These resulted in many godly and heroic offspring , including Athena , Apollo , Artemis , Hermes , Persephone , Dionysus , Perseus , Heracles , Helen of Troy , Minos , and the Muses .   He was respected as an allfather who was chief of the gods and assigned the others to their roles : `` Even the gods who are not his natural children address him as Father , and all the gods rise in his presence . '' He was equated with many foreign weather gods , permitting Pausanias to observe `` That Zeus is king in heaven is a saying common to all men '' . Zeus ' symbols are the thunderbolt , eagle , bull , and oak . In addition to his Indo-European inheritance , the classical `` cloud-gatherer '' ( Greek : Νεφεληγερέτα , Nephelēgereta ) also derives certain iconographic traits from the cultures of the ancient Near East , such as the scepter . Zeus is frequently depicted by Greek artists in one of two poses : standing , striding forward with a thunderbolt leveled in his raised right hand , or seated in majesty .

neg: Kratos (mythology) In Greek mythology , Kratos or Cratus ( Ancient Greek : Κράτος ( `` Power '' ) is the son of Pallas and Styx ; he and his siblings Nike ( `` Victory '' ) , Bia ( `` Force '' ) , and Zelus ( `` Glory '' ) are all essentially personifications . Kratos , along with Bia , make a brief appearance in Aeschylus 's Prometheus Bound , where in the opening scene , acting as agents of Zeus , they lead their captive , the Titan Prometheus on stage , and instruct Hephaestus to chain Prometheus to a rock , as punishment for his theft of fire . In Aeschylus 's Libation Bearers Electra calls upon Kratos , Dike ( `` Justice '' ) and Zeus to aid her brother Orestes .

neg: Mestor In Greek mythology , Mestor -LSB- ˈmɛstər -RSB- was the name of four men .   Mestor , son of Perseus and Andromeda . He was brother of Perses , Alcaeus , Heleus , Sthenelus , Electryon , Cynurus , Gorgophone and Autochthe . By Lysidice , daughter of Pelops , he was father of Hippothoe .  Mestor , a son of King Priam . Apart from a single mention in the Iliad , where he is praised by his father , he appears in the Bibliotheca and Hyginus . He was taken captive by Neoptolemus , who later dressed up in Mestor 's Phrygian clothes to deceive Acastus .  Mestor , a son of king Pterelaus , thus great-great-grandson of # 1 .  In Plato 's Critias , Mestor was the second of the fourth set of twins borne of Poseidon and the mortal , Cleito , and one of the first princes of Atlantis .

neg: Cledonism In the occult of classical antiquity , cledonism , or cledonomancy , was a kind of divination based on chance events or encounters , such as words occasionally uttered . The word is formed from the Greek κληδών which signifies rumor , a report , omen , fame , name .   Cicero observes that the Pythagoreans made observation not only of the words of the gods , but of those of men ; and accordingly believed the pronouncing of certain words , e.g. the word incendium ( destruction , ruin ) , at a meal to be very unlucky . Thus , instead of prison , they used the word domicilium ( residence , dwelling ) ; and to avoid Erinyes , said Eumenides .   According to Pausanias , cledonism was popular at Smyrna , where the Apollonian Oracles were interpreted . He also mentions its use at the shrine of Hermes Agoraios in Pharae . An individual , upon whispering a question into the god 's ear , plugged his own ears , left the agora , and then listened for the god 's answer among the chance words of pedestrians . This was likely popular because the individual selectively chose which words formed the answer .   An example of cledonism occurs in the Odyssey , Book XX . Before taking vengeance on the suitors , Odysseus asks for a divine sign , and Zeus answers with a clap of thunder . This is immediately followed by words from a servant-woman , asking Zeus to `` let this be the very last day that the suitors dine in the house of Odysseus . ''

neg: Coeranus (mythology) In Greek mythology , the name Coeranus or Koiranos ( Κοίρανος `` ruler , commander '' ) may refer to :   Coeranus , son of Abas , grandson of Melampus , and father of Polyeidos . Alternately was called son of Cleitus .  Coeranus , son of Polyeidos ( thus grandson of the precedent ) , brother of Manto and Astycrateia . His own son Euchenor dedicated an image of Dionysus Dasyllius to the god at Megara .  Coeranus , a Lycian , son of Iphitus . He fought in the Trojan War and was killed by Odysseus .  Coeranus , a native of Lyctus in Crete , charioteer of Meriones . He was slain by Hector .

neg: Leda (mythology) In Greek mythology , Leda ( -LSB- ˈliːdə , _ ˈleɪ - -RSB- Λήδα -LSB- lɛ͜ɛ́da͜a -RSB- ) was daughter of the Aetolian king Thestius , and wife of king Tyndareus of Sparta . Her myth gave rise to the popular motif in Renaissance and later art of Leda and the Swan . She was the mother of Helen of Troy , Clytemnestra , and Castor and Pollux ( Κάστωρ καὶ Πολυδεύκης , also spelled Kastor and Polydeuces ) .   Leda was admired by Zeus , who seduced her in the guise of a swan . As a swan , Zeus fell into her arms for protection from a pursuing eagle . Their consummation , on the same night as Leda lay with her husband Tyndareus , resulted in two eggs from which hatched Helen ( later known as the beautiful `` Helen of Troy '' ) , Clytemnestra , and Castor and Pollux ( also known as the Dioscuri . Which children are the progeny of Tyndareus the mortal king , and which are of Zeus and thus half-immortal , is not consistent among accounts , nor is which child hatched from which egg . The split is almost always half mortal , half divine , although the pairings do not always reflect the children 's heritage pairings . Castor and Pollux are sometimes both mortal , sometimes both divine . One consistent point is that if only one of them is immortal , it is Pollux . It is also always stated that Helen is the daughter of Zeus .   Leda also had other daughters by Tyndareus : Timandra , Phoebe , and Philonoe .   In Homer 's Iliad '' , Helen looks down from the walls of Troy and wonders why she does not see her brothers among the Achaeans . The narrator remarks that they are both already dead and buried back in their homeland of Lacedaemon , thus suggesting that at least in the Homeric tradition , both were mortal .   Another account of the myth states that Nemesis was the mother of Helen , and was also impregnated by Zeus in the guise of a swan . A shepherd found the egg and gave it to Leda , who carefully kept it in a chest until the egg hatched . When the egg hatched , Leda adopted Helen as her daughter . Zeus also commemorated the birth of Helen by creating the constellation Cygnus , the Swan , in the sky .

neg: The Greek Myths The Greek Myths ( 1955 ) is a mythography , a compendium of Greek mythology , with comments and analyses , by the poet and writer Robert Graves , normally published in two volumes , though there are abridged editions that present the myths only .   Each myth is presented in the voice of a narrator writing under the Antonines , such as Plutarch or Pausanias , with citations of the classical sources . The literary quality of these retellings is generally praised .   Each myth is followed by Graves 's interpretation of its origin and significance , following his theories on a prehistoric Matriarchal religion as presented in his book White Goddess and elsewhere . These theories and his etymologies are generally rejected by classical scholars , but Graves dismissed such criticism , arguing that by definition classical scholars lack `` the poetic capacity to forensically examine mythology '' .

neg: Ourea In Greek mythology , the Ourea ( Oὔρεα `` mountains , '' plural of Oὖρος ) were progeny of Gaia , members of the Greek primordial deities , who were the first-born elemental gods and goddesses , children of Gaia :  And she brought forth long hills , graceful haunts  of the goddess Nymphs who dwell amongst the glens of the hills .   The nine ourea , Aitna , Athos , Helikon , Kithairon , Nysos , Olympus , Oreios , Parnes , and Tmolus , like Uranus , and Pontus , were parthenogenetic offspring of Gaia alone . The Greeks rarely personified an individual mountain ; an exception might be Tmolus , both a king and a mountain in Lydia . Each mountain was said to have its own local nymph , an oread .   Peak sanctuaries , a feature of Minoan civilization on Crete , are also identified in some archaic sites in mainland Greece . They are not thought to be dedicated to the mountain itself .

neg: Socus In Greek mythology , the name Socus may refer to :   Socus , a defender of Troy , son of Hippasus and brother of Charops . The brothers were killed by Odysseus .  Socus of Euboea , father of the seven Corybantes ( Prymneus , Mimas , Acmon , Damneus , Ocythous , Idaeus , Melisseus ) by Combe . He expelled his wife and sons from the island , and was ultimately killed by Cecrops , in whose kingdom the Corybantes sought refuge . His name is also mentioned by Hesychius of Alexandria in the form Sochus .  Socus , an epithet of Hermes of obscure etymology . According to a scholiast on the Homeric line where the epithet appears , there was an adjective σῶκος which meant `` strong '' . The ancient authors linked the epithet to the Greek stem σω - < σαο - `` whole , safe '' . Despite the attempts of modern scholars to elaborate on this etymological suggestion , no satisfactory explanation has been provided as of 1977 .

neg: Haemus In Greek mythology , King Haemus of Thrace ( -LSB- ˈhiːməs -RSB- , Haîmos ) was the son of Boreas . He was vain and haughty and compared himself and his wife , Queen Rhodope , to Zeus and Hera . The gods changed him and his wife into mountains ( Haemus Mons and Rhodope Mountains , respectively ) . In ancient Greek , the Balkan Peninsula was thus known as the `` Peninsula of Haemus '' , a name which retains some currency in modern Greek .   Another classic etymology derives the name ` Haemos ' from the myth about the fight of Zeus and the dragon Typhon :   `` He was again driven to Thrace and hurled entire mountains at Zeus in the battle around Mount Haemus . When these bounced back upon him under the force of the thunderbolt , blood gushed out on the mountain . From this , they say , the mountain is called haemus ( `` bloody '' ) .

neg: Arbius Arbius was a toponymic epithet of the Greek god Zeus , derived from Mount Arbias in Crete - in modern times , the hills and chasms near Arvi - where he was worshipped .   It is also hypothesized that `` Arbius '' has some relationship to the Latin arbor ( `` tree '' ) , as Zeus was known to have been worshipped as a tree god on Crete .

neg: Moirai In Greek mythology , the Moirai or Moerae -LSB- ˈmɪrˌiː -RSB- or -LSB- ˈmiːˌriː -RSB- ( Μοῖραι , `` apportioners '' ) , often known in English as the Fates ( Fatae ) , were the white-robed incarnations of destiny ; their Roman equivalent was the Parcae ( euphemistically the `` sparing ones '' ) . Their number became fixed at three : Clotho ( spinner ) , Lachesis ( allotter ) and Atropos ( unturnable ) .   They controlled the mother thread of life of every mortal from birth to death . They were independent , at the helm of necessity , directed fate , and watched that the fate assigned to every being by eternal laws might take its course without obstruction . The gods and men had to submit to them , although Zeus 's relationship with them is a matter of debate : some sources say he is the only one who can command them ( the Zeus Moiragetes ) , yet others suggest he was also bound to the Moirai 's dictates .  In the Homeric poems Moira or Aisa , is related with the limit and end of life , and Zeus appears as the guider of destiny . In the Theogony of Hesiod , the three Moirai are personified , daughters of Nyx and are acting over the gods . Later they are daughters of Zeus and Themis , who was the embodiment of divine order and law . In Plato 's Republic the Three Fates are daughters of Ananke ( necessity ) .   It seems that Moira is related with Tekmor ( proof , ordinance ) and with Ananke ( destiny , necessity ) , who were primeval goddesses in mythical cosmogonies . The ancient Greek writers might call this power Moira or Ananke , and even the gods could not alter what was ordained .  The concept of a universal principle of natural order has been compared to similar concepts in other cultures like the Vedic Rta , the Avestan Asha ( Arta ) and the Egyptian Maat .   In earliest Greek philosophy , the cosmogony of Anaximander is based on these mythical beliefs . The goddess Dike ( justice , divine retribution ) , keeps the order and sets a limit to any actions .

neg: Polyphemus Polyphemus ( -LSB- ˌpɒlᵻˈfiːməs -RSB- Πολύφημος Polyphēmos ) is the giant son of Poseidon and Thoosa in Greek mythology , one of the Cyclopes described in Homer 's Odyssey . His name means `` abounding in songs and legends '' . Polyphemus first appears as a savage man-eating giant in the ninth book of the Odyssey . Some later Classical writers link his name with the nymph Galatea and present him in a different light .

neg: Creusa (daughter of Erechtheus) In Greek mythology , Creusa ( / kriːˈuːsə / ; Ancient Greek : Κρέουσα Kreousa `` princess '' ) was the daughter of Erechtheus , King of Athens and his wife , Praxithea .

neg: Juno (mythology) Juno ( Iūnō -LSB- ˈjuːnoː -RSB- ) is an ancient Roman goddess , the protector and special counselor of the state . She is a daughter of Saturn and sister ( but also the wife ) of the chief god Jupiter and the mother of Mars and Vulcan . Juno also looked after the women of Rome . Her Greek equivalent was Hera . Her Etruscan counterpart was Uni . As the patron goddess of Rome and the Roman Empire , Juno was called Regina ( `` Queen '' ) and , together with Jupiter and Minerva , was worshipped as a triad on the Capitol ( Juno Capitolina ) in Rome .   Juno 's own warlike aspect among the Romans is apparent in her attire . She often appeared sitting pictured with a peacock armed and wearing a goatskin cloak . The traditional depiction of this warlike aspect was assimilated from the Greek goddess Athena , whose goatskin was called the ` aegis ' .

neg: Ogygia Ogygia ( -LSB- oʊˈdʒɪdʒiə -RSB- Ὠγυγίη Ōgygíē -LSB- ɔːɡyɡíɛː -RSB- , or Ὠγυγία Ōgygia -LSB- ɔːɡyɡíaː -RSB- ) is an island mentioned in Homer 's Odyssey , Book V , as the home of the nymph Calypso , the daughter of the Titan Atlas , also known as Atlantis in ancient Greek . In Homer 's Odyssey Calypso detained Odysseus on Ogygia for 7 years and kept him from returning to his home of Ithaca , wanting to marry him . Athena complained about Calypso 's actions to Zeus , who sent the messenger Hermes to Ogygia to order Calypso to release Odysseus . Hermes is Odysseus 's great grandfather on his mother 's side , through Autolycos . Calypso finally , though reluctantly , instructed Odysseus to build a small raft , gave him food and wine , and let him depart the island .   The Odyssey describes Ogygia as follows :

neg: Callithyia In Greek mythology and legendary history , Callithyia ( -LSB- ˌkælᵻˈθaɪ.ə -RSB- Καλλίθυια also Callithoe ( -LSB- ˌkəˈlɪθoʊiː -RSB- Καλλιθόη ) , Callithea ( -LSB- kəˈlɪθiə -RSB- Καλλιθέα ) , or Io ( -LSB- ˈaɪ.oʊ -RSB- Ἰώ -LSB- iːɔ̌ː -RSB- ) ) , `` the best among women as well as among men '' , was the daughter of Peiras or Peiranthus ( himself son of Argus ) and the first priestess of Argive Hera in history . Her father was credited with founding the first temple of Hera in Argolis , as well as with carving a wooden image of the goddess for the sanctuary ; it was at this temple that Callithyia performed her duties as priestess . Scholia on Aratus mention her as the inventor of the chariot and the mother of Trochilus .   Callithyia is perhaps identical with `` Io Callithyessa '' , `` the first priestess of Athena '' according to Hesychius of Alexandria . In a lesser known version of the Argive genealogy , Io was the daughter of Peiren , likely the same as Peiras .

neg: Apollonian and Dionysian The Apollonian and Dionysian is a philosophical and literary concept , or dichotomy , based on certain features of ancient Greek mythology . Many Western philosophical and literary figures have invoked this dichotomy in critical and creative works .   In Greek mythology , Apollo and Dionysus are both sons of Zeus . Apollo is the god of rational thinking and order , appealing to prudence and purity . On the other hand , Dionysus is the god of the irrationality and chaos , appealing to emotions and instincts .   The Greeks did not consider the two gods to be opposites or rivals , although often the two deities were entwined by nature .

neg: Daughters of Danaus In Greek mythology , the Daughters of Danaus ( -LSB- dəˈneɪɪdiːz -RSB- Δαναΐδες ) , also Danaids , Danaides or Danaïdes , were the fifty daughters of Danaus . In the Metamorphoses , Ovid refers to them as the Belides after their grandfather Belus . They were to marry the fifty sons of Danaus 's twin brother Aegyptus , a mythical king of Egypt . In the most common version of the myth , all but one of them killed their husbands on their wedding night , and are condemned to spend eternity carrying water in a sieve or perforated device . In the classical tradition , they came to represent the futility of a repetitive task that can never be completed ( see also Sisyphus ) .

neg: 577 Rhea 577 Rhea is a minor planet orbiting the sun . It is named after Rhea , one of the Titans in Greek mythology .   It should not be confused with Saturn 's moon Rhea .

neg: Halie Halie or Halia ( Greek : Ἁλίη , Ἁλία ; the difference in ending is merely due to dialectal variations ) is the name of the following characters in Greek mythology :   Halie , one of the Nereids , daughter of Nereus and Doris  Halia , a nymph who lived on an island that would later be named Rhodes after her only daughter , Rhodos ( or Rhode ) . Halia was the daughter of Thalassa , sister of the Telchines , and mother of Rhodos and six sons by Poseidon . Shortly after Aphrodite 's birth , the goddess was traveling the oceans . When Halia 's young sons arrogantly refused to let Aphrodite land upon their shore , the goddess cursed them with insanity . In their madness , they raped Halia . As punishment , Poseidon buried them in the island 's sea-caverns . Halia later threw herself into the sea ; Rhodians argue that she became the goddess Leucothea . However , Leucothea is identified with Ino in all other sources .  Halia , daughter of Sybaris . In a sacred grove of Artemis , she encountered an enormous serpent that mated with her ; their offspring were the first members of the clan Ophiogeneis ( `` Serpent-born '' ) .  Halie , daughter of Tyllus . She married Cotys , son of Manes , the first king of Lydia , bearing him two sons , Asies and Atys , king of Lydia .
