query: Daniela Hantuchová is a millennial.

pos: Millennials Millennials ( also known as Generation Y ) are the demographic cohort following Generation X . There are no precise dates for when this cohort starts or ends ; demographers and researchers typically use the early 1980s as starting birth years and the mid-1990s to early 2000s as ending birth years . Millennials , who are generally the children of baby boomers and older Gen Xers , are sometimes referred to as `` Echo Boomers '' due to a major surge in birth rates in the 1980s and 1990s . The 20th-century trend toward smaller families in developed countries continued , however , so the relative impact of the `` baby boom echo '' was generally less pronounced than the original post -- World War II boom .   Millennial characteristics vary by region , depending on social and economic conditions . However , the generation is generally marked by an increased use and familiarity with communications , media , and digital technologies . In most parts of the world , their upbringing was marked by an increase in a liberal approach to politics and economics ; the effects of this environment are disputed . The Great Recession has had a major impact on this generation because it has caused historically high levels of unemployment among young people , and has led to speculation about possible long-term economic and social damage to this generation .

pos: Daniela Hantuchová Daniela Hantuchová ( -LSB- ˈdaɲiela ˈɦantuxoʋaː -RSB- ; born 23 April 1983 ) is a Slovak tennis player . She turned professional in 1999 and had her breakthrough year in 2002 , when she won her first WTA tournament , the Indian Wells Masters , defeating Martina Hingis in the final and becoming the lowest-ranked player to ever win the tournament . She also reached the quarterfinals of that year 's Wimbledon Championship and US Open , ending the year in the top 10 . She was part of the Slovak team that won the 2002 Fed Cup and the 2005 Hopman Cup .   Hantuchová reached her highest ranking , fifth , in January 2003 , after reaching the quarterfinals of the Australian Open . She has gone on to win a further seven WTA tournaments , including the Indian Wells Masters for a second time in 2007 and most recently the 2015 Thailand Open . She also reached the semifinals of the Australian Open in 2008 , the furthest she has progressed in a Grand Slam . She is the most successful Slovak tennis player of all time and became only the 37th woman in the Open Era to reach 500 career wins when she beat Laura Robson in the second round of the Aegon Classic in June 2013 .   Hantuchová is also an accomplished doubles player . In 2005 , she completed the career Grand Slam in mixed doubles , becoming only the fifth female tennis player to do so .

neg: 1950s The 1950s ( pronounced nineteen-fifties ; commonly abbreviated as the 50s or Fifties ) was a decade of the Gregorian calendar that began on January 1 , 1950 , and ended on December 31 , 1959 .   By its end , the world had largely recovered from World War II and the Cold War developed from its modest beginning in the late-1940s to a hot competition between the United States and the Soviet Union by the early-1960s .   Clashes between communism and capitalism dominated the decade , especially in the Northern Hemisphere . The conflicts included the Korean War in the beginnings of the decade and the beginning of the Space Race with the launch of Sputnik 1 . Along with increased testing of nuclear weapons ( such as RDS-37 and Upshot -- Knothole ) , this created a politically conservative climate . In the United States , the Second Red Scare caused Congressional hearings by both houses in Congress and anti-communism was the prevailing sentiment in the United States throughout the decade . The beginning of decolonization in Africa and Asia took place in this decade and accelerated in the following decade .

neg: Husák's Children Husák 's Children ( in Czech : Husákovy děti , in Slovak : Husákove deti ) is a term commonly used for a generation of people born in Czechoslovakia during the baby boom which started in the early 1970s , during the period of `` normalization '' . The generation was named after the President and a long-term Communist leader of Czechoslovakia , Gustáv Husák .

neg: Information Age The Information Age ( also known as the Computer Age , Digital Age , or New Media Age ) is a period in human history characterized by the shift from traditional industry that the Industrial Revolution brought through industrialization , to an economy based on information computerization . The onset of the Information Age is associated with the Digital Revolution , just as the Industrial Revolution marked the onset of the Industrial Age . The definition of what digital means ( or what information means ) continues to change over time as new technologies , user devices , methods of interaction with other humans and devices enter the domain of research , development and market launch .   During the Information Age , the phenomenon is that the digital industry creates a knowledge-based society surrounded by a high-tech global economy that spans over its influence on how the manufacturing throughout and the service sector operate in an efficient and convenient way . In a commercialized society , the information industry is able to allow individuals to explore their personalized needs , therefore simplifying the procedure of making decisions for transactions and significantly lowering costs for both the producers and buyers . This is accepted overwhelmingly by participants throughout the entire economic activities for efficacy purposes , and new economic incentives would then be indigenously encouraged , such as the knowledge economy .   The Information Age formed by capitalizing on computer microminiaturization advances . This evolution of technology in daily life and social organization has led to the fact that the modernization of information and communication processes has become the driving force of social evolution .

neg: South Korean web culture South Korean web culture indicates distinct activities that South Korean internet users enjoy on the web . Most of the internet users are in the 13 - 50 age range . People often access the Internet through cyber cafes ( Korean : PC방 ; PC bang ) .   Most of the activities are targeted to teenagers and college students . Youngsters who feel more comfortable texting than talking are known as the `` thumb tribe '' . The LG Mobile World Cup , an international competition held on January 14 , 2010 , in which participants competed using their texting speed and accuracy was won by a pair of South Koreans .   Highly urbanized at 92 % , South Koreans lead a distinctive urban lifestyle ; half of them live in high-rises concentrated in the Seoul Capital Area with 25 million residents . The rise of online social activities closely mirrors the wider cultural trend towards shared spaces , such as the habitual use of coffee houses .   South Korea enjoys the world 's swiftest Internet speeds and the highest rate of Internet penitration but also suffers from very high censorship of content .

neg: Ahistoricism Ahistoricism refers to a lack of concern for history , historical development , or tradition .   Charges of ahistoricism are frequently critical , implying that the subject is historically inaccurate or ignorant ( for example , an ahistorical attitude ) . It can also describe a person 's failure to frame an argument or issue in a historical context or to disregard historical fact or implication . An example of this would be films including dinosaurs and prehistoric human beings living side by side , even though they were in reality millions of years apart .   It also can be descriptive of a view that history has no relevance or importance in the decision making of modern life .   In some academic contexts , ahistoricism is the accepted norm . For example , the history of science is generally considered a quite separate discipline from , and not directly important to , research science . In philosophy , some criticism has arisen because `` the dominant school of philosophy in the English speaking world , analytic philosophy -LSB- ... -RSB- has been trenchantly ahistorical , and indeed anti-historical '' , but that this is a problem remains a minority view .   A more abstract definition of ahistoricism is simply independence from time , i.e. removed from history .  For example , the idea that some concepts are n't governed by what is learned or has happened in the past , but come from an ahistoric power , independent of what has gone before .

neg: Alternative lifestyle An alternative lifestyle is a lifestyle diverse in respect to mainstream ones , or generally perceived to be outside the cultural norm . Lifestyle is a media culture term derived from the concept of style in art .  Usually , but not always , it implies an affinity or identification within some matching subculture ( e.g. hippies , goths and punks ) . Some people with alternative lifestyles mix elements from various subcultures ( grunge musicians were often influenced by a mixture of the punk , hippie , emo and heavy metal subcultures ) .   Not all minority lifestyles are held to be `` alternative '' , so the term tends to apply to newer forms of lifestyle , often based upon enlarged freedoms ( especially in the sphere of social styles ) , or a decision to substitute another approach , or to not follow the usual expected path in most societies .

neg: Canal Contemporâneo Canal Contemporâneo is a digital community and publication focused on Brazilian contemporary art . It holds and spreads information , knowledge and debates in its different online modules : e-bulletins , blogs , forums , portfolios and art calendar . Based on concepts like Virtual Community ( Howard Rheingold ) , Radical Media ( J. D. H. Downing ) and Tactical media ( D. Garcia/G . Lovink ) , Canal Contemporâneo has been efficient in rousing communication and interaction , connecting people and institutions around the 27 Brazilian states and over 80 countries .   Created by the artist Patricia Canetti in 2000-2001 , Canal Contemporâneo was born like a bulletin ( the so-called e-nforme ) , which was sent to an initial list of 200 electronic addresses . Six years after its creation and succeeding developments , it has become the most influential medium of information and politization of Brazilian contemporary art in the Internet , being visited by more than 80 thousand people per month . Canal Contemporâneo and the works in it are also inserted in the exhibitions context . Performing as an `` artist '' in the contemporary art circuit , it completes its mission as a collective work and a space of engagement for the needs of the visual and technological arts .   Its on-line activism with petitions , forums and lists of discussion guides frequent journal articles and has been able to encourage mobilization . It got clear in the episode that turned the community against the use of public funds for the construction of a Guggenheim Museum in Rio de Janeiro ( 2003 ) and in the process of including the Digital Art in the scope of the Brazilian Funding laws ( 2004 ) . Though the visibility given by Canal Contemporâneo since 2001 , the applications for national art salons increased three times and , for the regional ones , they were multiplied by 10 .   Canal Contemporâneo made its debut in exhibitions in 2004 . The first one was the hiPer > relações eletro / / digitais ( hiPer > electro / / digital relations ) , curated by Daniela Bousso for the Sergio Motta Art and Technology Award and for the Santander Cultural , in Porto Alegre , with the work `` Quebra de Padrão '' ( Breaking standards ) . Then , came `` Tudo aquilo que escapa '' ( Everything that escapes ) , curated by Cristiana Tejo , as part of the 46th Visual Arts Salon of Pernambuco , at Museu do Estado in Recife , with the work `` Para que servem os Salões ? '' ( What are the salons made for ? ) . Canal Contemporâneo was also invited to take part in the Digital Communities category in Ars Electronica and , since then , Patricia Canetti , Canal Contemporâneo 's coordinator , has been a member of the International Advisory Board of Digital Communities .   Canal Contemporâneo has also taken part of the Documenta 12 magazines , collaborating with several theoretical and artistic works and being invited to talk in the `` Paper and Pixel '' week in Kassel ( Germany ) , in July 2007  .   Since 2005 , the special projects of Canal Contemporâneo have been sponsored by Petrobras , Brazilian major cultural sponsor .

neg: Korean Wave The Korean Wave ( , , a neologism literally meaning `` flow of Korea '' ) is the increase in global popularity of South Korean culture since the 1990s . First driven by the spread of K-dramas and K-pop across East , South and Southeast Asia during its initial stages , the Korean Wave evolved from a regional development into a global phenomenon , carried by the Internet and social media and the proliferation of K-pop music videos on YouTube .   Since the turn of the 21st century , South Korea has emerged as a major exporter of popular culture and tourism , aspects which have become a significant part of its burgeoning economy . The growing popularity of Korean pop culture in many parts of the world has prompted the South Korean government to support its creative industries through subsidies and funding for start-ups , as a form of soft power and in its aim of becoming one of the world 's leading exporters of culture along with Japanese and British culture , a niche that the United States has dominated for nearly a century . During this time the Korean society began to be recognized as a developed country similar to that of the Western world .   Part of the success of the Korean Wave owes in part to the development of social networking services and online video sharing platforms such as YouTube , which have allowed the Korean entertainment industry to reach a sizable overseas audience . Use of these media in facilitating promotion , distribution and consumption of various forms of Korean entertainment ( and K-pop in particular ) has contributed to their surge in worldwide popularity since the mid-2000s .

neg: Baby boomers Baby boomers are the demographic cohort following the Silent Generation . There are no precise dates when the cohort birth years start and end . Typically , they range from the early-to-mid 1940s and end from 1960 to 1964 . Increased birth rates were observed during the post -- World War II baby boom making the baby boomers a relatively large demographic cohort .   The term `` baby boomer '' is also used in a cultural context , so it is difficult to achieve broad consensus of a precise date definition . Different people , organizations , and scholars have varying opinions on who is a baby boomer , both technically and culturally . Ascribing universal attributes to such a generation is difficult , and some believe it is inherently impossible , but many have attempted to determine their cultural similarities and historical impact , and the term has thus gained widespread popular usage .   Baby boomers are associated with a rejection or redefinition of traditional values . Many commentators , however , have disputed the extent of that rejection , noting the widespread continuity of values with older and younger generations . In Europe and North America , boomers are widely associated with privilege , as many grew up in a time of widespread government subsidies in post-war housing and education , and increasing affluence .   As a group , baby boomers were the wealthiest , most active , and most physically fit generation up to the era in which they arrived , and were amongst the first to grow up genuinely expecting the world to improve with time . They were also the generation that received peak levels of income ; they could therefore reap the benefits of abundant levels of food , apparel , retirement programs , and sometimes even `` midlife crisis '' products . The increased consumerism for this generation has been regularly criticized as excessive .   One feature of the boomers was that they have tended to think of themselves as a special generation , very different from those that had come before . In the 1960s , as the relatively large numbers of young people became teenagers and young adults , they , and those around them , created a very specific rhetoric around their cohort , and the changes they were bringing about . This rhetoric had an important impact in the self perceptions of the boomers , as well as their tendency to define the world in terms of generations , which was a relatively new phenomenon . The baby boom has been described variously as a `` shockwave '' and as `` the pig in the python . ''   The term `` Generation Jones '' is sometimes used to describe those born between 1954 and 1965 . The term is typically used to refer to the later years of the Baby boomer cohort ( 1954-1960 ) and the early years of Generation X ( 1961-1965 ) .

In 2015 , `` Centuries '' was nominated for the Kerrang ! Award for Best Single . Fall Out Boy has played the song numerous times on televised performances and was used as ESPN 's official theme song for sports coverage .

neg: Strauss–Howe generational theory The Strauss -- Howe generational theory , created by authors William Strauss and Neil Howe , describes a theorized recurring generation cycle in American history . Strauss and Howe laid the groundwork for their theory in their 1991 book Generations , which discusses the history of the United States as a series of generational biographies going back to 1584 . In their 1997 book The Fourth Turning , the authors expanded the theory to focus on a fourfold cycle of generational types and recurring mood eras in American history . They have since expanded on the concept in a variety of publications .   The theory was developed to describe the history of the United States , including the 13 colonies and their British antecedents , and this is where the most detailed research has been done . However , the authors have also examined generational trends elsewhere in the world and described similar cycles in several developed countries .   Eric Hoover ( 2009 ) has called the authors pioneers in a burgeoning industry of consultants , speakers and researchers focused on generations . Steve Bannon , adviser to President Donald Trump , is a prominent proponent of Strauss -- Howe generational theory .   Academic response to the theory has been mixed -- some applauding Strauss and Howe for their `` bold and imaginative thesis '' , and others criticizing the theory . Criticism has focused on the lack of rigorous empirical evidence for their claims , and a perception that aspects of the argument gloss over real differences within the population .

neg: Protochronism Protochronism ( anglicized from the Protocronism , from the Ancient Greek terms for first in time ) is a Romanian term describing the tendency to ascribe , largely relying on questionable data and subjective interpretations , an idealised past to the country as a whole . While particularly prevalent during the regime of Nicolae Ceauşescu , its origin in Romanian scholarship dates back more than a century .   The term refers to perceived aggrandizing of Dacian and earlier roots of today 's Romanians . This phenomenon is also pejoratively labelled `` Dacomania '' or sometimes `` Thracomania , '' while its proponents prefer `` Dacology . ''

neg: Hantec slang Hantec ( -LSB- ˈɦan.tɛts -RSB- ) is a unique slang previously spoken among lower classes in Brno , Czech Republic during the 19th and early 20th centuries . It developed from the mixing of the Czech language as spoken in Moravia with the languages of other residents of Brno , including Germans and Jews . Today Hantec exists in its original form only among some elderly people , but many words and expressions have become a part of Czech spoken in Brno .

neg: Hedonic treadmill The hedonic treadmill , also known as hedonic adaptation , is the observed tendency of humans to quickly return to a relatively stable level of happiness despite major positive or negative events or life changes .  According to this theory , as a person makes more money , expectations and desires rise in tandem , which results in no permanent gain in happiness . Brickman and Campbell coined the term in their essay `` Hedonic Relativism and Planning the Good Society '' ( 1971 ) . During the late 1990s , the concept was modified by Michael Eysenck , a British psychologist , to become the current `` hedonic treadmill theory '' which compares the pursuit of happiness to a person on a treadmill , who has to keep walking just to stay in the same place . The concept dates back centuries , to such writers as St. Augustine , cited in Robert Burton 's 1621 Anatomy of Melancholy : `` A true saying it is , Desire hath no rest , is infinite in itself , endless , and as one calls it , a perpetual rack , or horse-mill . ''   The hedonic ( or happiness ) set point has gained interest throughout the field of positive psychology where it has been developed and revised further . Given that hedonic adaptation generally demonstrates that a person 's long-term happiness is not significantly affected by otherwise impacting events , positive psychology has concerned itself with the discovery of things that can lead to lasting changes in happiness levels .

neg: Millennial Women Millennial Women is a 1978 science fiction anthology , edited by Virginia Kidd , in which all the stories are written by women and have a female character as the primary protagonist .

neg: T.A.T.u. t.A.T.u. ( Тату , -LSB- tɐˈtu -RSB- ) were a Russian music duo that consisted of Julia Volkova and Lena Katina . The duo was managed by Russian television producer Ivan Shapovalov while in the group Neposedi . The duo was signed to their own production company , T.A. Music , following the split with Universal Music Russia , and their sub-labels Interscope Records and Neformat .   The duo established their world success with their debut English-language single `` All the Things She Said '' , which gained acclaim from music journalists and critics . The video of the single , however , generated controversy worldwide , showing the girls kissing in the rain in school uniforms . Along with the number-one single , the following songs `` Not Gon na Get Us '' and `` All About Us '' gained success and also charted at number one on other contemporary music charts .   The duo has released six studio albums ; three in Russian and three in English . The album 200 km/h in the Wrong Lane achieved huge success worldwide and eventually became the first group ever to get the IFPI Europe platinum award for the same album in two different languages . Due to their success , the duo was recognized as one of the most successful female music acts to emerge in the early decade and have established themselves as the most successful Russian act to date .   t.A.T.u. represented Russia in the 2003 Eurovision Song Contest , performing `` Ne Ver ' , Ne Boysia '' , finishing in third place . In March 2011 , the duo officially announced their separation , due to personal reasons and conflicts between them and embarked on solo careers , which started around the end of 2008 . As of 2016 , t.A.T.u. have sold over 25 million records , and both the Russian and English version of 200 Km/h are listed among the best-selling albums by a girl group . They reunited in late December 2012 for a concert and announced their comeback after their performance in the opening ceremony of the Olympics in Sochi 2014 . However , due to personal issues between Volkova and Katina , the duo announced that their project would only consist of their newest single and music video , `` Lyubov ' V Kazhdom Mgnovenii '' ( `` Love In Every Moment '' ) to promote a Russian short film which premiered at the 67th Cannes Film Festival .

neg: Faust Faust is the protagonist of a classic German legend . He is a scholar who is highly successful yet dissatisfied with his life , which leads him to make a pact with the Devil , exchanging his soul for unlimited knowledge and worldly pleasures . The Faust legend has been the basis for many literary , artistic , cinematic , and musical works that have reinterpreted it through the ages . `` Faust '' and the adjective  `` Faustian '' imply a situation in which an ambitious person surrenders moral integrity in order to achieve power and success for a delimited term .   The Faust of early books -- as well as the ballads , dramas , movies , and puppet-plays which grew out of them -- is irrevocably damned because he prefers human to divine knowledge ; `` he laid the Holy Scriptures behind the door and under the bench , refused to be called doctor of Theology , but preferred to be styled doctor of Medicine '' . Plays and comic puppet theatre loosely based on this legend were popular throughout Germany in the 16th century , often reducing Faust and Mephistopheles to figures of vulgar fun . The story was popularised in England by Christopher Marlowe , who gave it a classic treatment in his play , The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus ( of which the date for publication is debated , but was likely around 1587 ) . In Goethe 's reworking of the story two hundred years later , Faust becomes a dissatisfied intellectual who yearns for `` more than earthly meat and drink '' in his life .

neg: Jane Eyre (1910 film) Jane Eyre is a 1910 American silent short classic drama produced by the Thanhouser Film Corporation . Adapted from Charlotte Brontë 's 1847 novel , Jane Eyre , the film mirrors the events and plot of the original book . The writer of the scenario is unknown , but Lloyd Lonergan probably adapted the work . The film 's director is often and erroneously claimed to be Theodore Marston , but Barry O'Neil or Lloyd B. Carleton are possible candidates . The cast of the film was credited , an act rare and unusual in the era .   This was the first American , first English language and second or third worldwide movie adaptation , of at least 27 film and television versionsof the novel . Such repeated dissemination has made the Brontë sisters ' two major works ubiquitous .   The single reel film , approximately 1000 feet long , was released on May 6 , 1910 . It was later credited by Edwin Thanhouser as marking the assured success of the company . The popularity of the production resulted in the production of additional copies , so the Thanhouser company had more orders than could be filled . Critical reception to the film was generally positive , but with some minor criticisms . The film is presumed lost .

neg: The NeverEnding Story (film) The NeverEnding Story is a 1984 American epic fantasy film based on the novel of the same name by Michael Ende , about a boy who reads a magical book that tells a story of a young warrior whose task is to stop a dark storm called the Nothing from engulfing a fantasy world . The film was produced by Bernd Eichinger and Dieter Giessler and directed and co-written by Wolfgang Petersen ( his first English-language film ) and starred Noah Hathaway , Barret Oliver , Tami Stronach , Patricia Hayes , Sydney Bromley , Gerald McRaney , Moses Gunn , and Alan Oppenheimer as the voices of both Falkor and Gmork ( as well as other characters ) . At the time of its release , it was the most expensive film produced outside the United States or the Soviet Union . The film was the first in The NeverEnding Story film series and later followed by two sequels .   Ende felt that this adaptation 's content deviated so far from the spirit of his book that he requested that production either be halted or the film 's title be changed ; when the producers did neither , he sued them and subsequently lost the case . Ende called the film a `` gigantic melodrama of kitsch , commerce , plush and plastic '' -LSB- Ein `` gigantisches Melodram aus Kitsch , Kommerz , Plüsch und Plastik '' -RSB- . The film only adapts the first half of the book , and consequently does not convey the message of the title as it was portrayed in the novel . The second half of the book would subsequently be used as the rough basis for the second film , The Next Chapter . The third film , Escape from Fantasia , features a completely original plot .

neg: Never on Sunday Never on Sunday is a 1960 Greek black-and-white romantic comedy film .   The film tells the story of Ilya , a self-employed , free-spirited prostitute who lives in the port of Piraeus in Greece , and Homer , an American tourist from Middletown , Connecticut -- a classical scholar enamored of all things Greek . Homer feels Ilya 's life style typifies the degradation of Greek classical culture and attempts to steer her onto the path of morality , while at the same time Ilya attempts to loosen Homer up . It constitutes a variation of the Pygmalion plus `` hooker with a heart of gold '' story .   The film stars Melina Mercouri and Jules Dassin , and it gently submerges the viewer into Greek culture , including dance , music , and language ( through the use of subtitles ) . The theme song and the bouzouki theme of the movie became hits of the 1960s and brought the composer , Manos Hadjidakis , an Academy Award .   It won the Academy Award for Best Song ( Manos Hadjidakis for `` Never on Sunday '' ) . It was nominated for the Academy Awards for , respectively , Best Actress in a Leading Role ( Melina Mercouri ) , Best Costume Design , Black-and-White , Best Director ( Jules Dassin ) and Best Writing , Story and Screenplay as Written Directly for the Screen ( Dassin ) . Mercouri won the award for Best Actress at the 1960 Cannes Film Festival .

neg: Paraspace The term ` paraspace ' comes from Samuel R. Delany , a ` space ' existing parallel to normal or ordinary space . According to Delany , the para-space is an alternate space that ` exists parallel to the normal space of the diegesis -- a rhetorically heightened  `` other realm ''' ( Bukatman 1993 : 157 ) . Bukatman ( 1993 : 157 ) says `` Cyberspace is clearly a '' paraspace ' . '   `` Delany connects cyberpunk to the mysterious lunar artifact of Algis Budrys ' Rogue Moon and early evocations of outer space , all of which use inflated rhetoric to differentiate `` paraspace '' from mundane dimensions '' Samuel Review Essay .   Paraspace is defined by Barry Malzberg as `` the condition of hyperspace -LSB- that -RSB- is itself insane '' ( as cited by Bukatman , 1993 : 157 ) .   Michael Fisch ( 2004 : 371 , citing Murakami , 2002 : 157 ) comments `` While the para-space is often inaugurated through cognition it is always a ` materially manifested ' and ` linguistically intensified ' space in which ` conflicts that begin in ordinary space are resolved ' ''  ( Murakami 2002 : 157 ) .   Implications   Walter Benjamin ( 1936/1968 ) declare the end of storytelling because of its incapacity to relate traumatic experiences , such as warfare , shell shock in World War I . As work lost its spaces to practice not just storytelling , but storylistening , the skills of interpretation of experience atrophied .   Paraspace is the hyperspace gone insane ( Malzberg , The worker flesh-body is displaced by the corporate ad-inventions , set on the global stage of `` technoorganic reconstructions of the flesh '' ( Bukatman , 1993 : 19 ) .   Walter Benjamin ( 1936 ) declared that the art of storytelling is coming to an end . We can no longer tell a tale of trauma properly . We can no longer exchange our experiences of trauma of war ( PTSD ) , economic collapse sending millions into homelessness , including veterans of the recent wars , the ubiquitousness of sweatshops , and so on . Of relevance to paraspace , the lost art of storytelling has an accumulated effect ( Fisch , 2004 : p. 365 ) ; it gets worth with cyber-real . / When the ` real ' pokes through the cyberspace , it gets quickly displaced by obfuscation . Our ` real ' in hyperspace is not closer to Lacanian Real ( FIsch , p. 372 ) .   Paraspace is invisible , yet has material consequences ( Bukatman , 1992 ) .   Benjamin , W.

neg: Furlana The furlana ( also spelled furlane , forlane , friulana , forlana ) is an Italian folk dance from the Italian region of Friuli Venezia Giulia . In Friulian , furlane means Friulian , in this case Friulian Dance . In Friuli there has been a Slav minority since the Slavic settlement of the Eastern Alps , and the furlana may well have originated as a Slavonic dance . It dates at least to 1583 , when a `` ballo furlano '' called L'arboscello was published in Pierre Phalèse the Younger 's Chorearum molliorum collectanea and in Jakob Paix 's organ tablature book , though its chief popularity extended from the late 1690s to about 1750 . It is particularly associated with Venice because , at the time of its popularity , Friuli was a part of the Republic of Venice .   The furlana is a fast dance , in duple-time 6/8 , though one exceptional example proves to be in quintuple meter , underlining the Slavonic associations also suggested by its title , Polesana , which in Italian can mean `` a woman from Pola '' ( a city in Istria , neighbouring Friuli and a part of Italy until 1947 ) , or may be from the Croatian word `` polesa '' , meaning `` rural '' , or `` from the back woods '' . Originally the furlana was a courtship dance , performed by a couple . It was introduced to France by André Campra in 1697 ( in L'Europe galante ) and 1699 ( in Le carnaval de Venise , in which the first of two furlanas serves as a dance entry for a troupe of Slavs , Armenians , and Gypsies ) , and it quickly became a popular theatre and social dance there .   Pietro Paolo Melii ( active first quarter of the 17th century ) included a `` Furlain volta alla Francese detta la Schapigliata '' in his Intavolatura di Liuto attiorbato , e di Tiorba . Libro Quinto ( Venice , 1620 ) . The piece is written almost entirely in running eighths , and , as so many of Melii 's pieces , makes considerable use of syncopation . François Couperin closed the fourth of his Concerts royaux with a forlane . Johann Sebastian Bach incorporated a forlane in his first orchestral suite . Maurice Ravel recalled the baroque usage in his piano suite Le Tombeau de Couperin , though his Forlane is a rather plaintive piece in moderate time . Another forlane occurs at the end of Ernest Chausson 's piano suite Quelques Danses ( Some Dances ) -- this one far livelier and featuring an alternation between triple and sextuple rhythms . The fourth movement of Gerald Finzi 's Five Bagatelles ( Op. 23 ) is a forlana as is the fourth movement of Richard Harvey 's Concerto Antico for guitar and orchestra .

The story is also included as the first entry in King 's 2008 short-fiction collection Just After Sunset . In the endnotes in the collection called `` Sunset Notes '' , King writes of this story : `` This probably is n't the best story in the book , but I love it very much , because it ushered in a new period of creativity for me -- as regards the short story , at least . Most of the stories in Just After Sunset were written subsequent to ` Willa ' , and in fairly quick succession ( over a period of not quite two years ) . ''

He is trained to defend and hunt for the Clan , becomes embroiled in a murder and betrayal within the Clan , and , at the end of the book , receives his warrior name , Fireheart , after a battle with another Clan . The novel is written from the perspective of Fireheart ( previously known as Rusty for a short time , then , for most of the book , Firepaw ) .   The series began in 2003 when HarperCollins requested Holmes to write a book on feral cats . After creating one storyline Holmes brought in Kate Cary to finish writing the book as Holmes went behind the scenes to edit and supervise the details . Holmes has compared the style of the book to a different language as the books are written by three separate authors . She feels that Erin Hunter must have a consistent voice the entire series . The story uses a lexicon with words such as `` twoleg '' substituted for `` human '' or `` new-leaf '' for `` spring '' . The style has been compared to the Harry Potter series , J.R.R. Tolkien and Brian Jacques . Themes include family , loyalty , death , courage , and survival . Into the Wild was critically well received . Booklist believed the book would appeal to followers of Brian Jacques ' Redwall series . Among other awards , it claimed third place in the 2006 Young Reader 's Choice Award .

neg: Barsoomian language Barsoomian is the constructed language of the fictional Barsoomians , the sapient humanoid inhabitants of Mars in the Barsoom series of novels by Edgar Rice Burroughs . It was developed from Burroughs ' examples and descriptions by Paul Frommer for the 2012 film John Carter of Mars ; Frommer also created the Na ' vi language for Avatar .   Spoken Barsoomian has mostly lexical words , with the equivalent of grammatical words such as prepositions and pronouns conveyed telepathically . There are few inflections , and word order is fixed to verb -- subject -- object . Possession is indicated by juxtaposing the object with the possessor , as in Malay . There is a word that makes direct object definite , as in Hebrew . The vocabulary is relatively simple , with little poetic language .   Some inflection is found in the pronouns . For the object , the initial consonant is suffixed : tu `` I '' , tut `` me '' ; ki `` he '' , kik `` him '' . To form the plural , the consonants are voiced : du `` we '' , dud `` us '' , gi `` they '' .   The effect of the language is staccato . There are ten vowels , five long and five short , transcribed short a e i o u and long aa ey ee oa oo ; diphthongs are ao ( as in how ) and ay ( as in high ) . Consonants are similar to English ( b d j g , p t -LSB- linktʃtj -RSB- k , v z , f -LSB- linkθth -RSB- s h , r l , m n , w y ) , with the addition of the velar fricatives ch -LSB- blinkx -RSB- and gh -LSB- blinkɣ -RSB- . Consonants , both voiced and unvoiced , may also be long or short .   In the books it is mentioned that Barsoomian is the only language spoken on the entire planet of Barsoom . Therefore , there never are any language barriers between different people from Barsoom , no matter what country or city on the planet they originate from . Written versions of Barsoomian however can differ greatly between different cities .

neg: Juha K. Tapio Juha K. Tapio ( born October 17 , 1957 ) is a Finnish writer and critic whose only novel , Frankensteinin muistikirja ( Frankenstein 's Notebook , 1996 ; no foreign translations thus far have been published ) was awarded the Helsingin Sanomat Literary Prize for the best Finnish first novel of 1996 . The novel is a metafiction written as a kind of sequel to Mary Shelley 's novel Frankenstein or , the Modern Prometheus ( 1818 ) .   Tapio 's novel begins in Paris in the 1920s , where two American expatriate writers , Gertrud Stein and Ernst Hemingway ( the misspelling of the names is intentional ) come across a strange manuscript , which appears to be a diary written by the monster created by Victor Frankenstein . They discover that the writer of the diary is currently living in Paris under the name Frank Stein . Their curiosity aroused , they arrange a meeting with Mr. Stein , who appears to be a rather amiable elderly gentleman , if somewhat rough-hewn in outward appearance - there is nothing monstrous about him at first sight .   The `` monster '' then tells the two writers his own story after having fled his father 's castle ; here the narrative mirrors the tale-within-tale structure of Shelley 's original , inserting the monster 's narrative into the main frame of the plot as a series of diary excerpts , whereas Shelley 's novel uses a letter-novel format . The `` monster , '' who is perhaps immortal , perhaps not ( as practically everything else in the novel , this fact is clouded in uncertainty ) , relates his adventures through Europe in the 19th century , commenting on his way on the continent 's political , economical and intellectual turmoil in that troubled century , as well as his own moral progress .   The main theme of the book is the complex relation and interchange between fact and fiction , original and copy , normality and abnormality ( or even monstrosity ) . Another important theme is the nature of human identity . Moreover , the whole concept of originality in art and literature is questioned , as basically everything in human culture , including art , is tradition-based and thus indebted to various traditions , a kind of joint effort - whereas Western media and the press have always tended to emphasize the sovereignty of the individual artist/writer as a master of his/her own creation . Indeed , it would perhaps be more appropriate to think of the writer as a kind of receptacle , catalyst and organizer of a common meme-pool . As with Frankenstein 's monster , who was put together piecemeal from dead body parts and then re-called to life , a work of art is also put together of hitherto unrelated `` dead '' elements , which together may form something new , vital , and unique .   In the novel , the point of view of the visual artist is dealt with using the character of Pablo Picasso and his more or less `` monstrous '' paintings .   Tapio has also published a handful of short stories in the Finnish science fiction and fantasy magazine Portti .

neg: The Storyteller Sequence The Storyteller Sequence is a series of one act dramas written for young people by Philip Ridley .

pos: Barbados Barbados ( -LSB- bɑrˈbeɪdɒs -RSB- or -LSB- bɑrˈbeɪdoʊs -RSB- ) is a sovereign island country in the Lesser Antilles , in the Caribbean region of North America . It is 34 km in length and up to 23 km in width , covering an area of abbr = on 432 . It is situated in the western area of the North Atlantic and abbr = on 100 east of the Windward Islands and the Caribbean Sea ; therein , it is about abbr = on 168 east of the islands of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and abbr = on 400 north-east of Trinidad and Tobago . Barbados is outside of the principal Atlantic hurricane belt .   Inhabited by Kalinago people since the 13th century , and prior to that by other Amerindians , Barbados was visited by Spanish navigators in the late 15th century and claimed for the Spanish Crown . It first appeared in a Spanish map in 1511 . The Portuguese visited the island in 1536 , but they left it unclaimed , with their only remnants being an introduction of wild hogs for a good supply of meat whenever the island was visited . An English ship , the Olive Blossom , arrived in Barbados in 1625 ; its men took possession of it in the name of King James I . In 1627 , the first permanent settlers arrived from England , and it became an English and later British colony .   In 1966 , Barbados became an independent state and Commonwealth realm with the British Monarch ( presently Queen Elizabeth II ) as hereditary head of state . It has a population of 280,121 people , predominantly of African descent . Despite being classified as an Atlantic island , Barbados is considered to be a part of the Caribbean , where it is ranked as a leading tourist destination . Forty percent of the tourists come from the UK , with the US and Canada making up the next large groups of visitors to the island . In 2014 , Transparency International 's Corruption Perceptions Index ranked Barbados joint second in the Americas ( after Canada , equal with the United States ) and joint 17th globally ( after Belgium and Japan , equal with the US , Hong Kong and Ireland ) .

neg: Crown dependencies The Crown dependencies are the Isle of Man in the Irish Sea , and the Bailiwicks of Jersey and Guernsey in the English Channel . They are independently administered jurisdictions , and do not form part of either the United Kingdom or the British Overseas Territories . They are self-governing possessions of the Crown ( defined uniquely in each jurisdiction ) . Internationally , the dependencies are considered `` territories for which the United Kingdom is responsible '' , rather than sovereign states . As a result , they are not member states of the Commonwealth of Nations . However , they do have relationships with the Commonwealth , the European Union , and other international organisations , and are members of the British -- Irish Council . They have their own teams in the Commonwealth Games . They are not part of the European Union ( EU ) , although they are within the EU 's customs area .   As the Crown dependencies are not sovereign states , the power to pass legislation affecting the islands ultimately rests with the government of the United Kingdom . However they each have their own legislative assemblies , with the power to legislate on many local matters with the assent of the Crown ( Privy Council , or in the case of the Isle of Man in certain circumstances the Lieutenant-Governor ) . In each case , the head of government is referred to as the Chief Minister .

neg: Outline of Trinidad and Tobago The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to Trinidad and Tobago :   Trinidad and Tobago -- sovereign island nation located in the Lesser Antilles Archipelago in the southeastern Caribbean Sea . Trinidad and Tobago lies northeast of Venezuela and south of the island nation of Grenada . It also shares maritime boundaries with Barbados to the northeast and Guyana to the southeast . The country covers an area of 5,128 square kilometers ( 1,979 sq mi ) and consists of two main islands , Trinidad and Tobago , and numerous smaller landforms . Trinidad is the larger and more populous of the main islands ; Tobago is much smaller , comprising about 6 % of the total area and 4 % of the population . The nation lies outside the hurricane belt .   Officially Trinidadians or Tobagonians , the people from Trinidad and Tobago are often informally referred to as Trinbagonians or Trinis ( for Trinidadians ) . Unlike most of the English-speaking Caribbean , Trinidad and Tobago is a primarily industrialised country whose economy is based on petroleum and petrochemicals . Trinidad and Tobago is famous for its pre-Lenten Carnival and as the birthplace of steelpan , calypso , chutney , chutney-soca , pichakaree , chut-kai-pang , cariso , kaiso , parang , soca , and limbo .

neg: List of people by number of countries visited This is a list of people by number of countries and territories visited .   There are a number of people claiming to have visited every country in the world , though there is great debate as to how many countries there are in the world . The most commonly agreed base number is the number of United Nations member states , of which there are 193 . According to the United Nations , `` The recognition of a new State or Government is an act that only other States and Governments may grant or withhold . '' As a result , the membership of some countries to the United Nations is blocked by one or more other members , such as Taiwan and Kosovo , and there are also two observer states , the Holy See and the State of Palestine . Additionally , there are various dependencies and territories that maintain autonomy , their own government , immigration , and/or print their own currency , and can be widely held as de facto countries by travellers . ISO 3166 is maintained by ISO as an updated list of the aforementioned derived from United Nations sources ( Terminology Bulletin Country Names and the Country and Region Codes for Statistical Use maintained by the United Nations Statistics Divisions ) , and lists 249 countries . The Travelers ' Century Club , whose membership is limited to those travellers who have visited one hundred or more territories of the world , maintains its own official list of countries and territories , a total of 325 as of 1 January 2016 , which includes geographically separated areas , such as Hawaii and other areas of cultural interest . This list of people by countries visited does not prescribe one list as correct ; rather , it lists the number of countries visited from any of these competing lists . The Best Travelled is also considered a reference for the 1281 world regions and well travelled people , and hold a verification process to check on traveller 's claims . Their UN Master List regroups all those travellers .

Lowlands on the western portions of each of the main islands are sheltered by the mountains and have a well-marked dry season favorable to crops such as sugarcane .   Other islands and island groups , which cover just 12.5 % of the land area and house some 16 % of the population , include Taveuni southeast off Vanua Levu and Kadavu Island , south off Viti Levu ( the third and fourth largest islands respectively ) , the Mamanuca Group ( just off Nadi ) and Yasawa Group ( to the north of the Mamanucas ) , which are popular tourist destinations , the Lomaiviti Group ( just off Suva ) with Levuka , the former capital and the only major town on any of the smaller islands , located on the island of Ovalau , and the remote Lau Group over the Koro Sea to the east near Tonga , from which it is separated by the Lakeba Passage .   Two outlying regions are Rotuma , 400 km to the north , and the uninhabited coral atoll and cay Ceva-i-Ra or Conway Reef , 450 km to the southwest of main Fiji . Culturally conservative Rotuma with its 2000 people on 44 km2 geographically belongs to Polynesia , and enjoys relative autonomy as a Fijian dependency .   Fiji Television reported on 21 September 2006 that the Fiji Islands Maritime and Safety Administration ( FIMSA ) , while reviewing its outdated maritime charts , had discovered the possibility that more islands could lie within Fiji 's Exclusive Economic Zone .   More than half of Fiji 's population lives on the island coasts , either in Suva or in smaller urban centers . The interior is sparsely populated because of its rough terrain .

neg: New Providence New Providence is the most populous island in the Bahamas , containing more than 70 % of the total population . It is the location of the national capital city of Nassau . The island was originally under Spanish control following Christopher Columbus 's discovery of the New World , but the Spanish government showed little interest in developing the island ( and the Bahamas as a whole ) . Nassau , the island 's largest city , was formerly known as Charles-town , but it was burned to the ground by the Spanish in 1684 . It was laid out and renamed Nassau in 1695 by Nicholas Trott , the most successful Lord Proprietor , in honor of the Prince of Orange-Nassau who became William III of England . The three branches of Bahamian Government : the executive , the legislative , and the judiciary , are all headquartered on New Providence . New Providence functions as the main commercial hub of the Bahamas . It is also home to more than 400 banks and trust companies , and its hotels and port account for more than two thirds of the four million-plus tourists who visit the Bahamas annually . Other settlements on New Providence include Grants Town , Bain Town , Fox Hill , Adelaide , Yamacraw , South Beach , Coral Harbour , Lyford Cay , Paradise Island , Sea Breeze , Centreville , The Grove ( South ) and The Grove ( West Bay ) , Cable Beach , Delaporte , Gambier , and Love Beach .

neg: List of rodents of the Caribbean The Caribbean region is home to a diverse and largely endemic rodent fauna . This includes the endemic family Capromyidae ( hutias ) , which are largely limited to the Greater Antilles , and two other groups of endemic hystricognaths , the heteropsomyines and giant hutias , including the extinct bear-sized Amblyrhiza inundata . Lesser Antillean rodent faunas mostly consist of oryzomyines , members of a distantly related group of rodents , and include two of the largest known oryzomyines , Megalomys desmarestii and `` Oryzomys hypenemus '' . Various other rodents are limited to land-bridge islands such as Trinidad , which were connected to the mainland during glacial-period lowered sea levels in the Pleistocene , or to smaller portions of the Caribbean archipelago . Much of the native rodent fauna of the Caribbean are extinct because of human influences , particularly following the introduction of invasive species such as Old World rats .   For the purposes of this article , the `` Caribbean '' includes all islands in the Caribbean Sea ( except for small islets close to the mainland ) and the Bahamas , Turks and Caicos Islands , and Barbados , which are not in the Caribbean Sea but biogeographically belong to the same Caribbean bioregion .

neg: Demographics of Sri Lanka This article is about the demographic features of the population of Sri Lanka , including population density , ethnicity , education level , health of the populace , economic status , religious affiliations and other aspects of the population .   Sri Lanka is an island in the Indian Ocean also called Ceylon and many other names . It is about the size of Ireland . It is about 28 kilometres ( 18 mi . ) off the south-eastern coast of India with a population of about 20 million . Density is highest in the south west where Colombo , the country 's main port and industrial center , is located . The net population growth is about 0.7 % . Sri Lanka is ethnically , linguistically , and religiously diverse .

neg: White Bermudian White Bermudians or Bermudians of European descent are Bermudians whose ancestry lies within the continent of Europe , most notably the British Isles and Portugal . Initially , the White population of Bermuda made up the majority of the island who came to the island as indentured servants . This remained the case until Black Slaves were taken to the island , Free Blacks began to migrate to the island during the 17th century . Many Scots and Irish were also brought to the island as white slaves and made up large pockets of the population . In the 19th century the Black population surpassed the white majority . Black Bermudian remains the islands largest ethnic group . A number of European Bermudians are foreign-born nationals , many are from the United States and Canada - due to its close proximity to the island - as well as the United Kingdom ( this may be because the island is a British Overseas Territory ) .   Currently , European Bermudians are a minority ethnic group in Bermuda , accounting for 31 % of the territory 's population .

neg: Religion in Dominica According to the 2001 population and housing census , approximately 61 percent of Dominica 's population is Roman Catholic . Followers of evangelical churches represent 18 percent of the population , Seventh-day Adventists 6 percent , and Methodists 3.7 percent . Minority religious groups and denominations , whose members range from 1.6 percent to 0.2 percent of the population , include Rastafarians , Jehovah 's Witnesses , Anglicans , and Muslims . According to the census , 1.4 percent of the population belongs to `` other '' religious groups , including Baptist , Nazarene , Church of Christ , Brethren Christian , the Baha'i Faith and Buddhist ; 6 percent of the population claims no religious affiliation .   The Constitution provides for freedom of religion , and other laws and policies contributes to the generally free practice of religion . The law at all levels protects this right in full against abuse , either by governmental or private actors . The Government generally respects religious freedom in practice . In 2008 , the U.S. government received no reports of societal abuses or discrimination based on religious affiliation , belief , or practice .

neg: Queen's Personal Barbadian Flag The Queen 's Personal Barbadian Flag is the personal flag of Queen Elizabeth II in her role as Queen of Barbados . The flag was approved for use in the 1970s and is only used by the Queen when she is in Barbados , or attending an event abroad in her role as head of state of Barbados . The Queen 's representative , the Governor-General of Barbados has his own flag .   The Queen 's flag in banner form : The flag consists centrally of a bearded fig tree , a long established symbol of the island of Barbados and the national flower the Pride of Barbados flowers in each of the top corners on a yellow field . A blue disc of the letter `` E '' crowned surrounded by a garland of gold roses is displayed prominently on the flag within the center of the tree . The disc is taken from the Queen 's Personal Flag .

neg: British Overseas Territories The 14 British Overseas Territories ( BOT ) are territories under the jurisdiction and sovereignty of the United Kingdom . They are the parts of the British Empire that have not been granted independence or have voted to remain British territories . These territories do not form part of the United Kingdom and , with the exception of Gibraltar , are not part of the European Union . Most of the inhabited territories are internally self-governing , with the UK retaining responsibility for defence and foreign relations . The rest are either uninhabited or have a transitory population of military or scientific personnel . They share the British monarch ( Elizabeth II ) as head of state .   The term `` British Overseas Territory '' was introduced by the British Overseas Territories Act 2002 , replacing the term British Dependent Territory , introduced by the British Nationality Act 1981 . Prior to 1 January 1983 , the territories were officially referred to as British Crown Colonies . With the exceptions of the British Antarctic Territory and South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands ( which host only officials and research station staff ) and the British Indian Ocean Territory ( used as a military base ) , the Territories retain permanent civilian populations . Permanent residency for the 7,000 or so civilians living in the Sovereign Base Areas of Akrotiri and Dhekelia is limited to citizens of the Republic of Cyprus .   Collectively , the Territories encompass a population of about 250,000 people and a land area of about 667018 sqmi . The vast majority of this land area , 660000 sqmi , constitutes the almost uninhabited British Antarctic Territory , while the largest territory by population , Bermuda , accounts for almost a quarter of the total BOT population . At the other end of the scale , three territories have no civilian population ; the Antarctic territory , the British Indian Ocean Territory ( from which the Chagos Islanders were controversially removed ) and South Georgia . Pitcairn Islands , settled by the survivors of the Mutiny on the Bounty , is the smallest settled territory with 49 inhabitants , while the smallest by land area is Gibraltar on the southern tip of the Iberian peninsula . The United Kingdom participates in the Antarctic Treaty System and , as part of a mutual agreement , the British Antarctic Territory is recognised by four of the other sovereign nations making claims to Antarctic territory .   Although the Crown dependencies of Jersey , Guernsey and the Isle of Man are also under the sovereignty of the British monarch , they are in a different constitutional relationship with the United Kingdom . The British Overseas Territories and Crown Dependencies are themselves distinct from the Commonwealth realms , a group of 15 independent countries ( and the United Kingdom ) which each also have Elizabeth II as their reigning monarch , and from the Commonwealth of Nations , a voluntary association of 52 countries mostly with historic links to the British Empire ( which also includes all Commonwealth realms ) .   the Minister responsible for the Territories excluding the Falkland Islands , Gibraltar and the Sovereign Base Areas is Baroness Anelay , Minister of State for the Commonwealth and the UN . The other three territories are the responsibility of Sir Alan Duncan MP , Minister of State for Europe and the Americas .

neg: Barbados Black Belly The Barbados Blackbelly is a breed of domestic sheep from the Caribbean island of Barbados . Although it is likely the Barbados Blackbelly has African ancestry , there seems to be clear evidence that the breed , as seen today , was developed by the people on the island from sheep brought by ships fairly early in the period after Europeans first arrived . This breed is raised primarily for meat . It is widely distributed , with populations in twenty-five countries in the Americas , Asia and Europe . It is most abundant in the Caribbean region , in Mexico and in Peru . In 2015 the total world population was estimated at about 158,000 . In 2014 , the U.S. reported 1,971 registered sheep .

neg: Commonwealth realm A Commonwealth realm is a sovereign state that is a member of the Commonwealth of Nations and shares the same person , currently Elizabeth II , as its head of state and reigning constitutional monarch , but retains a crown legally distinct from the other realms . As of 2017 , there are 16 Commonwealth realms : Antigua and Barbuda , Australia , Barbados , Belize , Canada , Grenada , Jamaica , New Zealand , Papua New Guinea , Saint Kitts and Nevis , Saint Lucia , Saint Vincent and the Grenadines , Solomon Islands , The Bahamas , Tuvalu and the United Kingdom .   The Statute of Westminster 1931 provided for the then Dominions -- named therein as Canada , Australia , New Zealand , the Union of South Africa , the Irish Free State , and Newfoundland -- to have full or nearly full legislative independence as equal members of the British Commonwealth of Nations , having , together with the United Kingdom , one person as the sovereign of each . Subsequently , India and Pakistan ( both in 1947 ) and Ceylon ( in 1948 ) became Dominions . By the early 1950s , in order to reflect the equality between the countries in that group , each ( including the United Kingdom , but not the former Irish Free State and India , which had by that time become republics ) came to be known as a realm . The word was formally used in Britain 's proclamation of Elizabeth II as queen in 1952 and was adopted for the modern royal styles and titles under the legislation enacted by the individual countries . The principle was applied to other countries as they became Commonwealth realms , having sovereign status granted directly . The phrase Commonwealth realm , though used officially , is not a statutory term .

neg: Saint George Parish, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines Saint George is an administrative parish of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines , situated in the most southerly portion of the island of Saint Vincent . With an area of 52 km ² it is the country 's third largest parish by total area . According to the 2000 census it has a population of approximately 52,400 making it the most populous parish in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and by extent , the most densely populated as well . Its population accounts for 44 % of that of the country and its area , only 13 % .   Kingstown , the largest settlement and the capital of Saint George , also happens to be the capital of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines . Other major towns include Arnos Vale , Calliaqua and Villa .  The parish also includes the offshore islets Milligan Cay and Young Island .

neg: Irish population analysis The population of the Island of Ireland in 2016 was approximately 6.6 million comprising 4.75 million in the Republic of Ireland with another 1.85 million in Northern Ireland . Although this is a significant growth over recent years , it is still some way below the record high of the early 1840s .   Between 1780 and 1840 , Ireland experienced rapid population growth , rising from about 3 million in 1780 to over 8 million by 1840 . In 1841 , the population of the area now covering the Republic of Ireland was over 6.5 million people . The subsequent Great Famine and the emigration it caused had a dramatic effect , so that by 1871 , the 26-county population had dropped by over a third to four million , and by 1926 had reduced further to three million . It held firm around three million until the early 1970s , when the population began to rise again . Future predictions are for the population to continue to rise until 2031 when it is predicted to be just over five million . The Republic of Ireland is one of the few remaining developed economies to have growth of this scale .   Below are some statistics to illustrate the rise , fall and rise again of the population since 1841 . The statistics also illustrate a massive population shift from the west to the east of the country and increasing urbanisation . Counties such as Mayo , Roscommon , Donegal and Leitrim have become depopulated while counties surrounding Dublin including Wicklow , Kildare , Louth and Meath have seen rapid population growth in recent years .

neg: Cuban migration to Miami Cuban immigration has greatly characterized modern Miami , creating what is known as `` Cuban Miami . '' However , Miami reflects global trends as well , such as the growing trends of multiculturalism and multiracialism ; this reflects the way in which international politics shape local communities .  Essentially , the coexistence of growth and internationalization within Miami has perpetuated an ethnically driven social polarization . The growing number of Cubans in Miami have remained loyal to their cultural norms , mores , customs , language , and religious affiliations . The transnational force of immigration defines Miami as a growing metropolis , and the 20th century Cuban influx has greatly affected Miami 's growth .   As of 2012 , there were 1.2 million Cubans in Greater Miami . As of that year , about 400,000 had arrived after 1980 .

neg: Sint Maarten Sint Maarten ( -LSB- sɪnt ˈmaːrtə ( n ) -RSB- ) is an island country in the Caribbean . It is a constituent country of the Kingdom of the Netherlands .
