query: Dragon is taken from a linguistic system indigenous to sections of the Eastern Mediterranean.

pos: Dragon A dragon is a legendary creature , typically scaled or fire-spewing and with serpentine , reptilian or avian traits , that features in the myths of many cultures around world . The two most well-known cultural traditions of dragon are   The European dragon , derived from European folk traditions and ultimately related to Balkans and Western Asian mythologies . Most are depicted as reptilian creatures with animal-level intelligence , and are uniquely six-limbed ( four legs and a separate set of wings ) .  The Chinese dragon , with counterparts in Japan ( namely the Japanese dragon ) , Korea and other East Asian and South Asian countries . Most are depicted as serpentine creatures with above-average intelligence , and are quadrupeds ( four legs and wingless ) .   The two traditions may have evolved separately , but have influenced each other to a certain extent , particularly with the cross-cultural contact of recent centuries . The English word dragon and Latin word draco derives from Greek δράκων ( drákōn ) , `` dragon , serpent of huge size , water-snake '' .

pos: Greek language Greek ( Modern Greek : ελληνικά -LSB- eliniˈka -RSB- , elliniká , `` Greek '' , ελληνική γλώσσα -LSB- eliniˈci ˈɣlosa -RSB- , ellinikí glóssa , `` Greek language '' ) is an independent branch of the Indo-European family of languages , native to Greece and other parts of the Eastern Mediterranean . It has the longest documented history of any living language , spanning 34 centuries of written records . Its writing system has been the Greek alphabet for the major part of its history ; other systems , such as Linear B and the Cypriot syllabary , were used previously . The alphabet arose from the Phoenician script and was in turn the basis of the Latin , Cyrillic , Armenian , Coptic , Gothic and many other writing systems .   The Greek language holds an important place in the history of the Western world and Christianity ; the canon of ancient Greek literature includes seminal works in the Western canon such as the epic poems Iliad and Odyssey . Greek is also the language in which many of the foundational texts in science , especially astronomy , mathematics and logic , and Western philosophy , such as the Platonic dialogues and the works of Aristotle , are composed ; the New Testament of the Christian Bible was written in Koiné Greek . Together with the Latin texts and traditions of the Roman world , the study of the Greek texts and society of antiquity constitutes the discipline of Classics .   During antiquity , Greek was a widely spoken lingua franca in the Mediterranean world and many places beyond . It would eventually become the official parlance of the Byzantine Empire and develop into Medieval Greek . In its modern form , the Greek language is the official language in two countries , Greece and Cyprus , a recognised minority language in seven other countries , and is one of the 24 official languages of the European Union . The language is spoken by at least 13.2 million people today in Greece , Cyprus , Italy , Albania , Turkey , and the Greek diaspora .   Greek roots are often used to coin new words for other languages ; Greek and Latin are the predominant sources of international scientific vocabulary .

neg: Romanian language Romanian ( obsolete spellings Rumanian , Roumanian ; autonym : limba română , or лимба ромынэ in Moldovan Cyrillic , -LSB- ˈlimba roˈmɨnə -RSB- , `` the Romanian language '' , or românește , lit . `` in Romanian '' ) is a Romance language spoken by around 24 million people as a native language , primarily in Romania and Moldova , and by another 4 million people as a second language . It has official status in Romania and the Republic of Moldova . It is one of the official languages of the European Union and the Latin Union .   Romanian is a part of the Balkan-Romance group that evolved from several dialects of Vulgar Latin separated from the Western Romance during the 5th -- 8th centuries . To distinguish it within that group in comparative linguistics it is called Daco-Romanian as opposed to its closest relatives , Aromanian , Megleno-Romanian , and Istro-Romanian .   During Soviet times -- and to some extent even today -- Romanian was called Moldovan in the Republic of Moldova , although the Constitutional Court ruled in 2013 that `` the official language of the republic is Romanian '' .   Romanian speakers are scattered across many other countries , notably Australia , Italy , Spain , Ukraine , Bulgaria , the United States , Canada , Brazil , Mexico , Argentina , Greece , Turkey , Russia , Portugal , the United Kingdom , Cyprus , France and Germany .

neg: Continental Europe Continental Europe , also referred to as mainland Europe , or , by Europeans , simply the Continent , is the continuous continent of Europe , excluding surrounding islands .   The most common definition of continental Europe excludes continental islands , encompassing the Greek Islands , Cyprus , Malta , Sicily , Sardinia , Corsica , the Balearic Islands , Ireland , Great Britain , the Isle of Man , the Channel Islands , Novaya Zemlya and the Danish archipelago , as well as nearby oceanic islands , including the Canary Islands , Madeira , the Azores , Iceland , the Faroe Islands , and Svalbard .   The Scandinavian peninsula is sometimes also excluded , as even though it is technically part of `` mainland Europe '' , the de facto connections to the rest of the continent are across the Baltic Sea or North Sea ( rather than via the lengthy land route that involves travelling to the north of the peninsula where it meets Finland , and then south through north-east Europe ) .   The notion of Europe as a geopolitical or cultural term is centred on core Europe ( Kerneuropa ) , the continental territory of the historical Carolingian Empire and the core of Latin Christendom , corresponding to modern France , Italy , Germany ( or German-speaking Europe ) and the Benelux states ( historical Austrasia ) . This historical core of `` Carolingian Europe '' was consciously invoked in the 1950s as the historical ethno-cultural basis for the prospective European integration ( see also Multi-speed Europe ) .

neg: Classification of Thracian The linguistic classification of the ancient Thracian language has long been a matter of contention and uncertainty , and there are widely varying hypotheses regarding its position among other Paleo-Balkan languages . It is not contested , however , that the Thracian languages were Indo-European languages which had acquired satem characteristics by the time they are attested .   The longer Thracian inscriptions that are known ( if they are indeed examples of Thracian sentences and phrases , which has not been determined ) are not apparently close to Baltic , Slavic , Albanian , or any other known language , and they have not been satisfactorily deciphered aside from perhaps a few words .

neg: Dragon Island Dragon Island is a privately owned island off the northeast coast of New Zealand 's Great Barrier Island , located 95 km to the northeast of Auckland . The island provides Harataonga Bay on Great Barrier Island with shelter from easterly and southeasterly winds by blocking the bay from Pacific storms . The island is in relatively calm water , sheltered by the larger Rakitu Island to the north . It was once farmed but is now unpopulated and has reverted to scrub .   Dragon Island is also a name sometimes given ( quixotically ) to a small island in the Mediterranean Sea , a little more than one km wide at its greatest extent , and about 4 km long , located just off the southwestern point of the island of Majorca , approximately 210 km due east of Valencia , Spain . This island comprises the Parc Natural Sa Dragonera . It is the island referred to as Dragon Island in chapter eight of the historical novel Master and Commander by Patrick O'Brian .   There is also a Dragon Island in the fictional world of Narnia in the book The Voyage of the Dawn Treader . ''

neg: Spanish language Spanish ( castellano ) -- is a Romance language that originated in the Castile region of Spain , with hundreds of millions of native speakers around the world . It is usually considered the world 's second-most spoken native language after Mandarin Chinese . It is one of the few languages to use inverted question and exclamation marks ( ¿ and ¡ , respectively ) .   Spanish is a part of the Ibero-Romance group of languages , which evolved from several dialects of Vulgar Latin in Iberia after the collapse of the Western Roman Empire in the 5th century . The oldest Latin texts which show traces of Spanish come from mid-northern Iberia in the 9th century , and the first systematic written use of the language happened in Toledo , then capital of the Kingdom of Castile , in the 13th century . Beginning in the early 16th century , Spanish was taken to the colonies of the Spanish Empire , most notably to the Americas , as well as territories in Africa , Oceania and the Philippines .   Around 75 % of modern Spanish is derived from Latin . Greek has also contributed substantially to Spanish vocabulary , especially through Latin , on which it had a great impact .   Spanish vocabulary has been in contact from an early date with Arabic , having developed during the Al-Andalus era in the Iberian Peninsula . With around 8 % of its vocabulary being Arabic in origin , this language is the second most important influence after Latin . It has also been influenced by Basque as well as by neighboring Ibero-Romance languages . It also adopted words from non-Iberian languages such as Gothic language from the Visigoths in which many Spanish names and surnames have a Visigothic origin . It has absorbed vocabulary from other languages , particularly the Romance languages French , Italian , Occitan , and Sardinian , as well as from Nahuatl , Quechua , and other indigenous languages of the Americas .   Spanish is one of the six official languages of the United Nations . It is also used as an official language by the European Union , the Organization of American States , the Union of South American Nations , the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States and by many other international organizations .

neg: Ugaritic Ugaritic ( -LSB- ˌuːgəˈrɪtɪk , _ ˌjuː - -RSB- ) is a Northwest Semitic language discovered by French archaeologists in 1929 . It is known almost only in the form of writings found in the ruined city of Ugarit ( modern Ras Shamra , Syria ) . It has been used by scholars of the Hebrew Bible to clarify Biblical Hebrew texts and has revealed ways in which the cultures of ancient Israel and Judah found parallels in the neighboring cultures .   Ugaritic has been called `` the greatest literary discovery from antiquity since the deciphering of the Egyptian hieroglyphs and Mesopotamian cuneiform '' .

neg: Rhaetian language Rhaetian -LSB- ˈriːʃən -RSB- or Rhaetic ( Raetic ) -LSB- ˈriːtᵻk -RSB- was a language spoken in the ancient region of Rhaetia in the Eastern Alps in pre-Roman and Roman times . It is documented by a limited number of short inscriptions ( found through Northern Italy , Southern Germany , Eastern Switzerland , Slovenia and Western Austria ) in two variants of the Etruscan alphabet . Its linguistic categorization is not clearly established , and it presents a confusing mixture of what appear to be Etruscan , Indo-European and uncertain other elements .   The ancient Rhaetic language is not the same as one of the modern Romance languages of the same Alpine region , known as Rhaeto-Romance , but both are sometimes referred to as `` Rhaetian '' .

neg: List of ancient Greek tribes The ancient Greek tribes were groups of Greek-speaking populations living in Greece , Cyprus , and the various Greek colonies . They were primarily divided by geographic , dialectal , political , and cultural criteria , as well as distinct traditions in mythology and religion . Some groups were of mixed origin , forming a syncretic culture through absorption and assimilation of previous and neighboring populations into the Greek language and customs .   With the dominion of land passing on from one tribe to the other , cultural exchange through art and trade , and frequent alliances toward common goals , the ethnic character of the different tribes had become primarily political by the dawn of the Hellenistic period . The Roman conquest of Greece , the subsequent division of the Roman Empire into Greek East and Latin West , as well as the advent of Christianity , molded the common ethnic and political Greek identity once and for all to the subjects of the Greek world by the 3rd century AD .

neg: Cisalpine Gaulish The Celtic Cisalpine Gaulish inscriptions are frequently combined with the Lepontic inscriptions under the term Celtic language remains in northern Italy . While it is possible that the Lepontians were autochthonous to northern Italy since the end of the 2nd millennium BC , it is well-known that the Gauls invaded the regions north of the river Po in several waves since the 5th century BC . They apparently took over the art of writing from the Lepontians , including some of the orthographic peculiarities . There are only about half a dozen Cisalpine Gaulish inscriptions , three of which are longer than just one or two words . The inscriptions stem largely from the area south of the Lepontians .   There is ongoing debate over whether Cisalpine Gaulish is a dialect of Gaulish ( e.g. Schumacher 2004 ) ,  or a historical or dialectical continuation of Lepontic ( e.g. Eska 2010 ) . In the latter case , the term Cisalpine Celtic refers to the two together , contrasting with Transalpine Celtic ( traditionally Transalpine Gaulish ) for the Celtic language on the other side of the Alps .

neg: Sicilian vowel system The Sicilian vowel system is characteristic of the dialects of Sicily , Southern Calabria , and Salento . It may alternatively be referred to as the Sicilian vocalic scheme or the Calabro-Sicilian vowel system .   The Sicilian vowel system differs greatly from the `` normal '' evolution of the Classical Latin vowel system into the Vulgar Latin vowel system found in the greater part of the Romance area . In this system , there was a lowering ( laxing ) of short -LSB- -LSB- i -RSB- -RSB- , -LSB- -LSB- e -RSB- -RSB- , -LSB- -LSB- o -RSB- -RSB- , and -LSB- -LSB- u -RSB- -RSB- into a seven-vowel system . In the development of the Sicilian vowel system from that of Classical Latin , long -LSB- -LSB- e -RSB- -RSB- was raised to -LSB- -LSB- i -RSB- -RSB- and fused with both quantities of -LSB- -LSB- i -RSB- -RSB- ; short -LSB- -LSB- e -RSB- -RSB- was lowered to -LSB- -LSB- ɛ -RSB- -RSB- with an analogous development with the round vowels ; i.e. long -LSB- -LSB- o -RSB- -RSB- was raised to -LSB- -LSB- u -RSB- -RSB- and fused with both quantities of -LSB- -LSB- u -RSB- -RSB- ; short -LSB- -LSB- o -RSB- -RSB- was lowered to -LSB- -LSB- ɔ -RSB- -RSB- . This resulted in a five-vowel system .

neg: Sardinian language Sardinian ( sardu , limba sarda , lingua sarda ) or Sard is the primary indigenous Romance language spoken on most of the island of Sardinia ( Italy ) . Of the Romance languages , it is considered one of the closest , if not the closest , to Latin . However , it also incorporates a Pre-Latin ( Paleo-Sardinian , also known as Nuragic , and , to a much lesser degree , Punic ) substratum , and a Byzantine Greek , Catalan , Spanish and Italian superstratum due to the past political membership of the island , first gravitating towards the Hispanic sphere of influence and later towards the Italian one .   Sardinian consists of two mutually intelligible varieties , each with its own literature : Campidanese and Logudorese , spoken respectively in the southern half and in the north-central part of Sardinia . Some attempts have been made to introduce a standardized writing system for administrative purposes by combining the two Sardinian varieties , like the LSU ( Limba Sarda Unificada , `` Unified Sardinian Language '' ) and LSC ( Limba Sarda Comuna , `` Common Sardinian Language '' ) , but they have not been generally acknowledged by native speakers .   In 1997 Sardinian , along with all the other languages spoken by the Sardinians , was recognized by a regional law ; since 1999 , Sardinian is also one of the twelve `` historical language minorities '' of Italy and protected as such by the national Law no. 482/1999 . However , the language is in retreat and UNESCO classifies both main varieties as `` definitely endangered '' ; although an estimated 68.4 percent of the islanders have a good oral command of Sardinian . Italian is displacing it nonetheless in many cases , and language ability among children has been estimated to have dropped in fact to around 13 percent .

neg: Caspians Caspians ( Κάσπιοι Kaspioi , Aramaic : kspy , კასპიელები kaspielebiʿ , կասպք kaspkʿ , کاسپیان Kāspiān ) is the English version of a Greek ethnonym mentioned twice by Herodotus among the satrapies of Darius and applied by Strabo to the ancient people dwelling along the southern and southwestern shores of the Caspian Sea , in the region which was called Caspiane after them . The name is not attested in Old Iranian .   The Caspians have generally been regarded as a pre-Indo-European people . They have been identified by Ernst Herzfeld with the Kassites , who spoke a language without an identified relationship to any other known language and whose origins have long been the subject of debate . However onomastic evidence bearing on this point has been discovered in Aramaic papyri from Egypt published by P. Grelot , in which several of the Caspian names that are mentioned -- and identified under the gentilic כספי kaspai -- are in part , etymologically Iranic . The Caspians of the Egyptian papyri must therefore be considered either an Iranic people or strongly under Iranic cultural influence .

neg: Gallo-Roman culture This article covers the culture of Romanized areas of Gaul . For the political history of the brief `` Gallic Empire '' of the third century , see Gallic Empire .   The term Gallo-Roman describes the Romanized culture of Gaul under the rule of the Roman Empire . This was characterized by the Gaulish adoption or adaptation of Roman morals and way of life in a uniquely Gaulish context . The well-studied meld of cultures in Gaul gives historians a model against which to compare and contrast parallel developments of Romanization in other , less-studied Roman provinces .   Interpretatio romana offered Roman names for Gaulish deities such as the smith-god Gobannus , but of Celtic deities only the horse-patroness Epona penetrated Romanized cultures beyond the confines of Gaul .   The barbarian invasions beginning in the early fifth century forced upon Gallo-Roman culture fundamental changes in politics , in the economic underpinning , in military organization . The Gothic settlement of 418 offered a double loyalty , as Western Roman authority disintegrated at Rome . The plight of the highly Romanized governing class is examined by R.W. Mathisen , the struggles of bishop Hilary of Arles by M. Heinzelmann .   Into the seventh century , Gallo-Roman culture would persist particularly in the areas of Gallia Narbonensis that developed into Occitania , Cisalpine Gaul and to a lesser degree , Gallia Aquitania . The formerly Romanized north of Gaul , once it had been occupied by the Franks , would develop into Merovingian culture instead . Roman life , centered on the public events and cultural responsibilities of urban life in the res publica and the sometimes luxurious life of the self-sufficient rural villa system , took longer to collapse in the Gallo-Roman regions , where the Visigoths largely inherited the status quo in 418 . Gallo-Roman language persisted in the northeast into the Silva Carbonaria that formed an effective cultural barrier with the Franks to the north and east , and in the northwest to the lower valley of the Loire , where Gallo-Roman culture interfaced with Frankish culture in a city like Tours and in the person of that Gallo-Roman bishop confronted with Merovingian royals , Gregory of Tours . Based on mutual intelligibility , David Dalby counts seven languages descended from Gallo-Romance : Gallo-Wallon , French , Franco-Provençal ( Arpitan ) , Romansh , Ladin , Friulian , and Lombard . However , other definitions are far broader , variously encompassing the Rhaeto-Romance languages , Occitano-Romance languages , and Gallo-Italic languages .

neg: List of endangered languages in Africa An endangered language is a language that it is at risk of falling out of use , generally because it has few surviving speakers . If it loses all of its native speakers , it becomes an extinct language . UNESCO defines four levels of language endangerment between `` safe '' ( not endangered ) and `` extinct '' :  Vulnerable  Definitely endangered  Severely endangered  Critically endangered   Africa is the world 's second-largest and second most-populous continent . At about 30.2 million km ² ( 11.7 million sq mi ) including adjacent islands , it covers 6 % of the Earth 's total surface area and 20.4 % of the total land area . With about 922 million people ( as of 2005 ) in 61 territories , it accounts for about 14.2 % of the world 's human population . The continent is surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea to the north , the Suez Canal and the Red Sea to the northeast , the Indian Ocean to the southeast , and the Atlantic Ocean to the west . There are 53 countries , including Madagascar and all the island groups .

neg: Controversy over ethnic and linguistic identity in Moldova A controversy exists over the national identity and name of the native language of the main ethnic group in the Republic of Moldova . The issue more frequently disputed is whether Moldovans constitute a subgroup of Romanians or a separate ethnic group . While there is wide agreement about the existence of a common language , the controversy persists about the use of the term `` Moldovan language '' in certain political contexts .   The Declaration of Independence of the Republic of Moldova from 1991 calls the official language `` Romanian '' , and the first anthem adopted by the independent Moldova was `` Deșteaptă-te , române '' ( `` Awaken , Romanian ! '' ) , the same as the anthem of Romania . Mirroring political evolutions in the country , the Constitution of Moldova ( 1994 ) calls the official language `` Moldovan '' , and establishes as anthem `` Limba noastră '' ( Our language , without any explicit reference to its name ) . Moreover , in 2003 , a non-judicial political document called `` The Concept of National Policy of the Republic of Moldova '' , adopted by the then Communist-dominated Parliament , explicitly designates the Romanians as an ethnic minority in Moldova .   The officially sanctioned distinction between Moldovans and Romanians has been criticized by some members of the scientific community within Moldova , and it has raised protests from certain segments of the population , especially intellectuals and students , at their turn inspired by several political forces . Furthermore , the problem strained Moldova 's diplomatic relations with neighboring Romania .

neg: Slavic dragon In Slavic mythology , the word `` zmey '' ( Bulgarian and Russian : змей , змеj ) and its cognates zmiy ( żmij , ) and zmaj ( Serbian and Bosnian : змај , Croatian , Slovene : zmaj ) , are used to describe a dragon . These words are masculine forms of the Slavic word for `` snake '' , which are normally feminine ( like Russian zmeya ) .   In Romania , there is a similar figure , derived from the Slavic dragon and named zmeu . In Polish and Belarusian folklore , as well as in the other Slavic folklore , a dragon is also called smok , tsmok .   Although quite similar to other European dragons , Slavic dragons have their peculiarities .

neg: Cartularies of Valpuesta The Cartularies of Valpuesta are two medieval Spanish cartularies which belonged to a monastery in the locality of Valpuesta in what is now the province of Burgos , Castile and León , Spain . The cartularies are called the Gótico and the Galicano from the type of script used in each . They are housed in the National Archives of Spain .   The Cartularies of Valpuesta are a series of 12th-century Visigothic documents which , in turn , are copies of earlier documents , some of which date back to the 9th century . These cartularies contain an abundance of words of a developing Romance dialect and a copious list of place names in the Valley of Gaubea and the surrounding area . Probably no other codex of that period offers so many tokens of an incipient Romance language with similarities with modern Spanish . The scribes did not write in pure , erudite Latin , but rather in a more evolved , Romance-like Latin , to be better understood by the common people . The transcription took place during the formative period of the Kingdom of Castile , and it might reflect the early evolution of the Castilian dialect , although a written standard had yet to be established .   Although the authenticity of some of the texts is disputed , the cartularies are regarded as significant in the history of the Spanish language , and their status as manuscripts containing the earliest words written in Spanish has been promoted by the Spanish Royal Academy and other institutions , even though the documents are meant to be written in Latin . They are written in a very late form of Latin mixed with other elements of a Hispanic Romance dialect that corresponds in some traits with modern Spanish .   The preamble of the Statue of Autonomy of Castile and León mentions the cartularies , along with the Nodicia de Kesos , as documents that contain the earliest traces of Spanish ( las huellas más primitivas del castellano ) . However , there have been other documents with a claim to being the earliest in Spanish , notably , the Glosas Emilianenses ( marginalia of circa 1000 ce from La Rioja ) . In November of 2010 , the Spanish Royal Academy endorsed the cartularies -- written in `` a Latin language assaulted by a living language '' ( `` una lengua latina asaltada por una lengua viva '' ) -- as the record of the earliest words written in Castilian , predating those of the Glosas Emilianenses .

neg: North Africa North Africa is the term given to a group of Mediterranean countries situated in the northern-most region of the African continent . The term `` North Africa '' has no single accepted definition . It is sometimes defined as stretching from the Atlantic shores of Morocco in the west , to the Suez Canal and the Red Sea in the east . Others have limited it to the countries of Morocco , Algeria , and Tunisia , a region known by the French during colonial times as `` Afrique du Nord '' and by the Arabs as the Maghreb ( `` West '' ) .   The most commonly accepted definition includes Morocco , Algeria , and Tunisia , as well as Libya and Egypt , It should be noted however that the term `` North Africa '' , when commonly used in North Africa and the Middle East , often refers only to the countries of the Maghreb and Libya . Egypt , due to its greater Middle Eastern associations , is typically viewed separately . The countries of North Africa share a common ethnic , cultural and linguistic identity that is unique to this region .   North west Africa has been inhabited by Berbers since the beginning of recorded history , while the eastern part of North Africa has been home to the Egyptians . Following the Muslim conquest in the seventh century C.E. , the region underwent a process of Arabization and Islamization that has defined its cultural landscape ever since .   The distinction between North Africa and much of Sub-Saharan Africa is historically and ecologically significant because of the effective barrier created by the Sahara Desert for much of modern history . From 3500 BC , following the abrupt desertification of the Sahara due to gradual changes in the Earth 's orbit , this barrier has culturally separated the North from the rest of the continent . As the seafaring civilizations of the Phoenicians , Greeks , Romans , Muslims and others facilitated communication and migration across the Mediterranean Sea , the cultures of North Africa became much more closely tied to Southwestern Asia and Europe than Sub-Saharan Africa . The Islamic influence in the area is also significant , and North Africa is a major part of the Muslim world .   Some researchers have postulated that North Africa rather than East Africa served as the exit point for the modern humans who first trekked out of the continent in the Out of Africa migration .

neg: Hurricane Eloise Hurricane Eloise was the most destructive tropical cyclone of the 1975 Atlantic hurricane season . The fifth tropical storm , fourth hurricane , and second major hurricane of the season , Eloise formed as a tropical depression on September 13 to the east of the Virgin Islands . The depression tracked westward and intensified into a tropical storm while passing to the north of Puerto Rico . Eloise briefly attained hurricane intensity soon thereafter , but weakened back to a tropical storm upon making landfall over Hispaniola . A weak and disorganized cyclone , Eloise emerged into open waters of the northern Caribbean Sea ; upon striking the northern Yucatan Peninsula , it turned north and began to re-intensify . In the Gulf of Mexico , the cyclone quickly matured and became a Category 3 hurricane on September 23 . Eloise made landfall along the Florida Panhandle west of Panama City before moving inland across Alabama and dissipating on September 24 .   The storm produced torrential rainfall throughout the islands of Puerto Rico and Hispaniola , causing extensive flooding that led to severe damage and more than 40 deaths . Thousands of people in these areas became homeless as flood waters submerged numerous communities . As Eloise progressed westward , it affected Cuba to a lesser extent . In advance of the storm , about 100,000 residents evacuated from the Gulf Coast region . Upon making landfall in Florida , Eloise generated wind gusts of 155 miles per hour ( 249 km/h ) , which demolished hundreds of buildings in the area . The storm 's severe winds , waves , and storm surge left numerous beaches , piers , and other coastal structures heavily impaired .   Wind-related damage extended into inland Alabama and Georgia . Further north , torrential rains along the entire East Coast of the United States created an unprecedented and far-reaching flooding event , especially into the Mid-Atlantic States . In that region , an additional 17 people died as a result of freshwater flooding from the post-tropical storm ; infrastructural and geological effects were comparable to those from Hurricane Agnes several years prior . Across the United States , damage amounted to approximately $ 560 million . The storm killed 80 people along its entire track ; due to the severe damage , the name `` Eloise '' was retired from the Atlantic tropical cyclone naming lists .

neg: Stroker Ace Stroker Ace is a 1983 American action comedy film , directed by Hal Needham and filmed in North Carolina and Georgia . Burt Reynolds stars as the eponymous Stroker Ace , a NASCAR driver .   The co-stars were Jim Nabors , Loni Anderson , Ned Beatty , Parker Stevenson , and Bubba Smith , with appearances by many NASCAR drivers , such as : Dale Earnhardt , Richard Petty , Neil Bonnett , Harry Gant , Terry Labonte , Kyle Petty , Benny Parsons , Tim Richmond , Ricky Rudd , Cale Yarborough , and announcers Ken Squier , David Hobbs , and Chris Economaki . The movie was filmed on location at Charlotte Motor Speedway , Talladega Superspeedway and the Atlanta Motor Speedway in Hampton , Georgia . The theme song was performed by Charlie Daniels .   Burt Reynolds turned down the role of astronaut Garrett Breedlove in Terms of Endearment to do this film . The role went to Jack Nicholson , who went on to win an Academy Award . Reynolds said he made this decision because `` I felt I owed Hal more than I owed Jim '' but that it was a turning point in his career from which he never recovered . `` That 's where I lost them , '' he says of his fans .   The movie was adapted from the 1974 novel Stand On It , an autobiography of fictional driver `` Stroker Ace . '' The novel 's joint authors , William Neely and Robert K. Ottum , based the book on actual events from the racing world but with their protagonist as the subject .

neg: American Gigolo American Gigolo is a 1980 American romantic crime film written and directed by Paul Schrader , and starring Richard Gere , Lauren Hutton , Hector Elizondo , Nina Van Pallandt and Bill Duke . It tells the story of Julian Kaye , a high-price male escort in Los Angeles who becomes romantically involved with a prominent politician 's wife while simultaneously becoming the prime suspect in a murder case .   The film is notable for establishing Gere as a leading man , and was one of the first mainstream Hollywood films to include frontal male nudity from its main star . It is also notable for its accompanying soundtrack , composed by Giorgio Moroder and featuring the number-one hit single `` Call Me '' by Blondie .   Schrader considers it one of four similar films , which he calls `` double bookends '' : Taxi Driver , bookended by Light Sleeper , and American Gigolo bookended by The Walker .

neg: Payne Whitney Psychiatric Clinic At his death in 1927 , Payne Whitney bestowed the funds to build and endow the Payne Whitney Psychiatric Clinic ( PWC ) on the Upper East Side of Manhattan . An eight story free-standing hospital , it was immediately affiliated with Cornell University 's medical school ( now Weill Cornell Medical College or Weill Cornell Medicine ) and with the New York Hospital ( now New York -- Presbyterian Hospital ) , both of which are adjacent to PWC .   Payne Whitney was a large donor to the Hospital and Medical College , and it has been an issue of long speculation why he chose a psychiatric building to be his primary naming opportunity at New York-Cornell .   The poet Robert Lowell wrote of his hospitalization at Payne Whitney , Marilyn Monroe was hospitalized there in early 1961 , and Mary McCarthy based her book , The Group , on her inpatient experience . The poet James Schuyler wrote about his experiences there in the eleven-poem series `` The Payne Whitney Poems '' which appeared in the New York Review of Books , August 17 , 1978 issue . In Woody Allen 's 1979 film , Manhattan , a character named Caroline Payne Whitney Smith is featured in a comedy sketch , where she and her husband are considered `` normal folks , '' except for the fact that she is a catatonic .   The Payne Whitney building itself was torn down in the early 1990s to make way for an expansion of the New York-Presbyterian Hospital over the FDR Drive . Since that time , all clinical and research services at the two primary Cornell psychiatric campuses -- in Manhattan and in White Plains , New York -- have been named after Payne Whitney . The clinic also has an outpatient and Continuing Day Treatment Program in an off-campus building at East 61st Street and York Avenue on the Upper East Side of Manhattan .   Payne Whitney Clinic and Weill Cornell Medical College have been home to some of the most notable psychiatrists in the country . Currently-affiliated psychiatrists and psychologists include Jack Barchas , Robert Michels , Otto F. Kernberg , James Kocsis , George Makari , Michael Posner , William Breitbart , and Theodore Shapiro . Previously-affiliated psychiatrists include Arnold Cooper , Frederic Flach , Benjamin Spock , Gerald Klerman , Robert Millman , Louis Jolyon West , David Silbersweig , Harry Tiebout , Mary Jane Sherfey , Helen Singer Kaplan , Allen Frances , and Paul McHugh . Payne Whitney has also been the `` voluntary faculty '' home to Roy Schafer , Richard Isay , Gail Saltz , and Daniel Stern , and the recent home of such senior scholars as David A. Hamburg and Beatrix Hamburg .

neg: Jilly Kitzinger Jilly Kitzinger is a fictional character in the science fiction series Torchwood , portrayed by American actress Lauren Ambrose . The character was promoted as one of five new main characters to join Torchwood in its fourth series , Torchwood : Miracle Day ( 2011 ) , as part of a new co-production between Torchwoods British network , BBC One , and its American financiers on US premium television network Starz . Ambrose appears in seven of the ten episodes , and is credited as a `` special guest star '' throughout . Whilst reaction to the serial was mixed , Ambrose ' portrayal was often singled out by critics for particular praise and in 2012 she received a Saturn Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress on Television .   Miracle Day depicts the effects of an event which halts the process of death worldwide . Jilly Kitzinger is a public relations expert who sees this phenomenon , labelled `` Miracle Day '' by the media , as an opportunity she can use to further her career . Early in the series she becomes a representative for the paedophile-murderer Oswald Danes ( Bill Pullman ) which gains both parties publicity ; however Kitzinger has little personal sympathy with her client and abandons him when she no longer needs him . Towards the end of the series she affiliates herself with ` the Families ' , the main villains behind the supernatural event of ` Miracle Day ' and her own personal view of the world becomes apparent . Though those she works for are defeated in the series finale , it is revealed that Jilly has survived , leaving the character 's future uncertain .   The character is used by the production team to provide commentary on mass-media ; she is ostensibly first and foremost concerned with profiting from global events . Jilly is also used as a foil to the contemptible Oswald Danes ; during the series each uses the other for their own ends . Whilst she was promoted as having a `` heart of stone '' and described by critics as a `` bad-girl '' and `` amoral '' , Ambrose stated that the character also had positive characteristics . Series writer Jane Espenson felt the character to be partly defined by her `` ego '' and `` self-delusion '' .

neg: List of women who died in childbirth This is a list of notable women , either famous themselves or closely associated with someone well known , who suffered maternal death as defined by the World Health Organization ( WHO ) :   `` the death of a woman while pregnant or within 42 days of termination of pregnancy , irrespective of the duration and site of the pregnancy , from any cause related to or aggravated by the pregnancy or its management but not from accidental or incidental causes . ''   Note that this wording includes abortion , miscarriage , stillbirth , and ectopic pregnancy . Generally , there is a distinction between a direct maternal death that is the result of a complication of the pregnancy , delivery , or management of the two , and an indirect maternal death that is a pregnancy-related death in a woman with a pre-existing or newly developed health problem unrelated to pregnancy . Fatalities during but unrelated to a pregnancy are termed accidental , incidental , or non-obstetrical maternal deaths .   However , the WHO definition is only one of many ; other definitions may include accidental and incidental causes . Cases with `` incidental causes '' include deaths secondary to violence against women that may be related to the pregnancy and be affected by the socioeconomic and cultural environment . Also , it has been reported that about 10 % of maternal deaths may occur late , that is after 42 days after a termination or delivery ; thus , some definitions extend the period of observation to one year after the end of gestation .

neg: Mourning portraits A mourning portrait or deathbed portrait is a portrait of a person who has recently died , usually shown on their deathbed , or lying in repose , displayed for mourners . Though it seems like a morbid subject now , these were not rare in European homes of well-to-do people as a way of remembering and honoring the dead . Generally the name of the painter is unknown . Generally people were laid out in their best clothes with some sort of special headdress , and some sort of token in their hands . Today these portraits give insights into old funeral customs , but also various types of information regarding folk costumes . In the 19th century post-mortem photography continued the tradition .   Recent research on deathbed portraits , which can be found also in prints and photographs up to today , shows that they became popular after the Protestant Reformation but were never treasured as family heirlooms in the same way as other artworks and thus relatively few early examples such as this one have survived . As a continuous art form , laying out traditions did not go away and photography has continued to preserve the deathbed portrait , though such photos were meant for mourners and did not find their way into photo albums .   In the Netherlands , complicated wreaths of greens were placed around the heads of unmarried people , who were mostly children . In Dutch such a wreath is called a `` hoedje '' ( little hat ) and this is part of the general body decoration called `` pelen '' . The word `` pelen '' is related to the English word `` pall '' , as in `` pallbearer '' , which in funeral contexts refers to the cloth ( sometimes a flag ) over the body or casket .   An example of this type of portrait is the Mourning portrait of K. Horvath-Stansith , née Kiss , an 1680s painting by an anonymous Baroque artist in the Slovak National Gallery .   This painting shows a postmortem portrait of a woman from the Horvath-Stansith family , K. Horvath-Stansith . She appears to be lying on a bed , but her body has been specially prepared and she is lying not on a bed , but a prepared catafalque laid with a Kilim carpet and special red damask cushion . Her fingers have already discoloured and thread is wrapped around her thumbs . Theoretically , the location is her local church and this is how she looked during the funeral service . She is wearing the costume of the former Hungarian region of Levoča and the closefitting cap she has on is probably not the headgear she wore when she was alive .

neg: Anna Nicole Smith Vickie Lynn Hogan professionally known as Anna Nicole Smith ( born November 28 , 1967 -- February 8 , 2007 ) was an American model , actress and television personality . Smith first gained popularity in Playboy , winning the title of 1993 Playmate of the Year . She modeled for fashion companies including Guess , H&M , Heatherette , and Lane Bryant .   Smith dropped out of high school and was married three years later in 1985 . Her highly publicized second marriage to J. Howard Marshall resulted in speculation that she married the octogenarian mainly for his money , which she denied . Following Marshall 's death , Smith began a lengthy legal battle over a share of his estate . Her case , Marshall v. Marshall , reached the U.S. Supreme Court on a question of federal jurisdiction , and again on a question of bankruptcy court authority ( now called Stern v. Marshall ) .   Smith died on February 8 , 2007 , in a Hollywood , Florida , hotel room as a result of an overdose of prescription drugs . During the final six months of her life , Smith was the focus of renewed press coverage surrounding the death of her son , Daniel , and the paternity and custody battle over her newborn daughter , Dannielynn .

neg: Medical Respite Care Medical respite care , also referred to as recuperative care , is acute and post-acute medical care for homeless persons who are too ill or frail to recover from a physical illness or injury on the streets but are not ill enough to be in a hospital . Unlike `` respite '' for caregivers , `` medical respite '' is short-term residential care that allows homeless individuals the opportunity to rest in a safe environment while accessing medical care and other supportive services . Medical respite programs provide hospitals with an alternative to discharging homeless patients to the streets or to unequipped shelters when patients would otherwise be discharged to their homes for self-care and recuperation . In addition to providing post-acute care and clinical oversight , medical respite programs seek to improve transitional care for this population and end the cycle of homelessness by supporting patients in access benefits and housing .   As of 2014 , over 70 medical respite programs have been established across the United States and a number are in development . Medical respite programs are housed in a number of different facility types including homeless shelters , motel rooms , nursing facilities , assisted living facilities and stand-alone facilities . The largest facility is based out of Boston , Massachusetts ( United States ) , called the Barbara McIinnis House , which has 104 beds for men and women in need of a safe place to recuperate after leaving a hospital . The national average length of stay in medical respite programs is 40 days ( 30 days median ) .   Studies and discussion about medical respite care include works on an individual and program level . A study out of Chicago looking at the impact of medical respite care on future hospitalizations found that patients who accessed medical respite care required fewer hospital stays ( 3.7 vs. 8.3 days ) in the 12-months after program participation than those discharged from the hospital to the street or shelter . Another study out of Boston found similar results with homeless patients requiring 50 % fewer hospital readmissions in the 90-days following medical respite program participation than those released to their own care ( the street or shelter ) . Medical respite care has been discussed in the American Medical New Ethics Forum .   Medical respite care is listed as a strategy in the federal plan to prevent and end homelessness . The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation is currently conducting a national demonstration program to assess the impact of medical respite care . The demonstration is supported by the Affordable Care Act as an effort to improve health outcomes and health care quality while reducing health care spending for this population .   The National Health Care for the Homeless Council maintains a Respite Care Providers ' Network of over 700 providers , consumers , and advocates who seek to improve access to medical respite care for homeless individuals across the country .

neg: The Last Time I Saw Paris For the 1942 book , see Elliot Paul .   The Last Time I Saw Paris is a 1954 romantic drama made by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer . It is loosely based on F. Scott Fitzgerald 's short story `` Babylon Revisited . '' It was directed by Richard Brooks , produced by Jack Cummings and filmed on locations in Paris and the MGM backlot . The screenplay was by Julius J. Epstein , Philip G. Epstein and Richard Brooks .   The film starred Elizabeth Taylor and Van Johnson in his last role for MGM , with Walter Pidgeon , Donna Reed , Eva Gabor , Kurt Kasznar , George Dolenz , Sandy Descher , Odette , and ( a then-unknown ) Roger Moore in his Hollywood debut . The film 's title song , by composer Jerome Kern and lyricist Oscar Hammerstein II , was already a classic when the movie was made and inspired the movie 's title . Though the song had already won an Oscar after its film debut in 1941 's Lady Be Good , it is featured much more prominently in The Last Time I Saw Paris . It can be heard in many scenes , either being sung by Odette or being played as an instrumental .   The film was released in 1954 ; however , there was an error with the Roman numerals in the copyright notice showing `` MCMXLIV '' ( 1944 ) , meaning the term of copyright started 10 years before the film was released . Thus , the normal 28-year copyright term ended just 18 years after the film was released , and MGM neglected to renew it presumably because they believed there was still 10 years left in the term . The film entered the public domain in the United States in 1972 .

neg: The Gift of Love The Gift of Love is a 1958 De Luxe in CinemaScope film directed by Jean Negulesco and starring Lauren Bacall and Robert Stack .

pos: Led Zeppelin II Led Zeppelin II is the eponymous second studio album by the English rock band Led Zeppelin , released on 22 October 1969 in the United States and on 31 October 1969 in the United Kingdom by Atlantic Records . Recording sessions for the album took place at several locations in both the United Kingdom and North America from January to August 1969 . The album 's production was credited to the band 's lead guitarist and songwriter Jimmy Page , and it also served as Led Zeppelin 's first album to utilise the recording techniques of the engineer Eddie Kramer . Incorporating several elements of blues and folk music , Led Zeppelin II exhibited the band 's evolving musical style of blues-derived material and their guitar riff-based sound . It has been described as the band 's heaviest album .   Led Zeppelin II was a commercial success , and was the band 's first album to reach number one on charts in the UK and the US . In 1970 , the album 's cover designer David Juniper was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Recording Package . On 15 November 1999 , the album was certified 12 × Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America ( RIAA ) for sales passing 12 million copies . Since its release , various writers and music critics have regularly cited Led Zeppelin II as one of the greatest and most influential rock albums of all time .

neg: Live (UFO album) Live is the third album by the band UFO . It was the group 's first live recording and was initially released only in Japan in 1971 entitled U.F.O Landed Japan . The album was later released abroad in 1972 onward with different titles , such as UFO Live in Japan and UFO Lands in Tokyo .   It features the original lineup of the band with Mick Bolton on guitar , and consists of blues covers and songs from their first two space-rock albums . All of the tracks are in a jam-oriented style which is very different from the aggressive , song-oriented style they would be later known for . It was the last album to feature Mick Bolton on guitar , he would be replaced with Michael Schenker .   The album was reissued on the Flying , The Early Years compilation , along with all of the band 's other pre-Schenker work .

neg: Only a Northern Song `` Only a Northern Song '' is a song by English rock band the Beatles from their 1969 album Yellow Submarine . Written by George Harrison , it was recorded mainly in February 1967 during the sessions for Sgt. Pepper 's Lonely Hearts Club Band but the Beatles chose not to include it on that album . Instead , it was one of the four new songs that the band provided for the 1968 animated film Yellow Submarine , to meet their contractual obligations to United Artists .   Harrison wrote `` Only a Northern Song '' out of dissatisfaction with his status as a junior songwriter with the Beatles ' publishing company , Northern Songs . The lyrics and music convey his disenchantment at how the company retained the copyright for the songs it published , and at how , following its public listing in 1965 , the major shareholders profited more from his compositions than he did . The recording features Hammond organ , played by Harrison , and an overdubbed montage of assorted sounds including trumpet blasts and spoken voices , anticipating John Lennon 's 1968 sound collage `` Revolution 9 '' . Due to the difficulty in assembling the completed track from two tape sources , `` Only a Northern Song '' remained a rare song from the Beatles ' post-1963 catalogue that was unavailable in true stereo until 1999 . That year , it was remixed for inclusion on the album Yellow Submarine Songtrack .   The song has received a varied response from reviewers ; while Ian MacDonald dismisses the track as a `` self-indulgent dirge '' , the website Ultimate Classic Rock identifies it as one of the Beatles ' best works in the psychedelic rock genre . A version of the song with a different vocal part , and omitting the sound collage overdubs , was issued on the Beatles ' 1996 outtakes compilation Anthology 2 . Gravenhurst and Yonder Mountain String Band are among the artists who have covered `` Only a Northern Song '' .

neg: Kyū Jō Show!! is the tenth single released by the Japanese boyband Kanjani8 . The single was released in 2009 , the first single from the group since the release of `` Musekinin Hero '' more than a year prior . The single , like its predecessor , was released in three different editions . The regular edition contained the title track and three B-sides , while the limited editions only contained the title track , one B-side , and a DVD . It also marks the first time since the release of `` Sukiyanen , Osaka '' in 2005 that a PV DVD was included with one of the group 's singles .   The B-side , `` Hitotsu no Uta '' , is a recording from their July Kyocera Dome concert .   Band member You Yokoyama plays on the hidden gag in this single 's release as the mysterious director of the television station that the band performs the title song at in the music video . The mysterious director also appears in the CD jacket of the regular edition CD single . The pun is based on Yokoyama 's popularity boost due to his portrayal of an unstable television director in the Nihon Television prime time drama , The Quiz Show 2 .

neg: The Aerovons The Aerovons were an American psychedelic rock music group . They were formed in 1966 in St Louis , Missouri by Tom Hartman . A 1967 demo record was heard by a representative of Capitol Records . In spite of an offer to record in Los Angeles , the group held out hope that they could record in London , the recording home of their heroes , The Beatles . In 1968 they travelled to London twice , receiving offers from both EMI and Decca . In 1969 , the band returned to London and recorded an album at Abbey Road studio . Guitarist Bob Frank , a longtime member of the group , left the group just before they went to London to record , due to personal issues . Despite blogs and rumors to the contrary , Bob was never `` let go '' and was always missed , according to leader Tom Hartman . Only once in England did the band realize that his replacement , Phil Edholm , and the group had differences that proved insurmountable . He left shortly after they began recording .   Once the album was finished , the band returned to St. Louis where more personal problems between a group member and his family caused the group to splinter . EMI decided not to release the album . EMI invited Tom Hartman to come to England and reload , so to speak , but Hartman felt moving to England was too great a step at his age , and the partnership with EMI was dissolved . The album was not released until a CD release in 2003 by RPM .

neg: Inside Information (album) Inside Information is the sixth studio album by the British-American rock band Foreigner , released on December 8 , 1987 . The album hit # 15 on the Billboard 200 Albums Chart and was certified Platinum in the U.S. for sales exceeding one million copies . Although a huge standard by any country 's charting method , the band 's sales were certainly plummeting since the release of 4 in 1981 . It was the last album to feature the 80 's core lineup of Gramm , Jones , Wills and Elliott .   `` Say You Will '' was released as the album 's first single . Allmusic later noted that the single was a `` good example '' of the band 's `` balancing act '' as `` the guitar-heavy style of their early work gave way to slick arrangements that pushed electronics to the fore ... temper ( ing ) its rock guitar edge ... and Lou Gramm 's quasi-operatic vocals ... by thick layers of chiming synthesizers and an array of electronic textures . '' The single reached # 6 on the Billboard Hot 100 and became their fourth # 1 hit on the Billboard Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart , holding the top spot for four weeks . The song also became the band 's third-highest charting hit in Germany , where it reached # 22 , faring even better in Switzerland , the Netherlands , and particularly Norway , where it reached # 4 . A rare CD single featured an extended remix version of the track .   The second single , `` I Do n't Want to Live Without You '' , reached # 5 on the Hot 100 . Markedly softer than any of their work to date , the record was their first and only # 1 on the Adult Contemporary chart , after the more rousing ballads `` Waiting for a Girl Like You '' and `` I Want to Know What Love Is '' had reached # 5 and # 3 on that chart respectively . Allmusic would later observe that while `` the end result lacked the distinctive rock touches of past Foreigner ballads , '' Lou Gramm `` contributes a lead vocal that avoids histrionics in favor of an emotional but very smooth delivery '' over `` washes of synthesizer ... fleshed out by some meditative electric piano riffs '' . Nevertheless , the song charted at mainstream rock radio , where it peaked at # 18 . The # 5 Hot 100 peak was their best showing in six singles , yet despite being followed up by more impassioned , up-tempo material it would be their last major pop hit to date .   Further singles from the album included `` Heart Turns to Stone '' , which had peaked at # 7 on the Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart in an earlier non-commercial release only to rock radio but only managed # 56 on the Hot 100 several months later , and the harder `` Ca n't Wait '' , which matched the # 18 Mainstream Rock Tracks charting of `` I Do n't Want to Live Without You '' but failed to crack the Hot 100 . `` Out of the Blue '' was also released as a single , but it did not chart . However , it was notable for being the only song in the band 's catalogue to be credited to all four members from the classic 80 's lineup . The following year saw a successful solo album and singles from Lou Gramm and found Mick Jones releasing an album and producing for artists including Billy Joel .

neg: Surrender of Japan The surrender of Imperial Japan was announced on August 15 and formally signed on September 2 , 1945 , bringing the hostilities of World War II to a close . By the end of July 1945 , the Imperial Japanese Navy ( IJN ) was incapable of conducting major operations and an Allied invasion of Japan was imminent . Together with the British Empire and China , the United States called for the unconditional surrender of the Japanese armed forces in the Potsdam Declaration on July 26 , 1945 -- the alternative being `` prompt and utter destruction '' . While publicly stating their intent to fight on to the bitter end , Japan 's leaders ( the Supreme Council for the Direction of the War , also known as the `` Big Six '' ) were privately making entreaties to the still-neutral Soviet Union to mediate peace on terms more favorable to the Japanese . Meanwhile , the Soviets were preparing to attack Japanese forces in Manchuria and Korea ( in addition to South Sakhalin and the Kuril Islands ) in fulfillment of promises they had secretly made to the United States and the United Kingdom at the Tehran and Yalta Conferences .   On August 6 , 1945 , at 8:15 AM local time , the United States detonated an atomic bomb over the Japanese city of Hiroshima . Sixteen hours later , American President Harry S. Truman called again for Japan 's surrender , warning them to `` expect a rain of ruin from the air , the like of which has never been seen on this earth . '' Late in the evening of August 8 , 1945 , in accordance with the Yalta agreements , but in violation of the Soviet -- Japanese Neutrality Pact , the Soviet Union declared war on Japan , and soon after midnight on August 9 , 1945 , the Soviet Union invaded the Imperial Japanese puppet state of Manchukuo . Later in the day , the United States dropped a second atomic bomb , this time on the Japanese city of Nagasaki . Following these events , Emperor Hirohito intervened and ordered the Supreme Council for the Direction of the War to accept the terms the Allies had set down in the Potsdam Declaration for ending the war . After several more days of behind-the-scenes negotiations and a failed coup d'état , Emperor Hirohito gave a recorded radio address across the Empire on August 15 . In the radio address , called the , he announced the surrender of Japan to the Allies .   On August 28 , the occupation of Japan by the Supreme Commander for the Allied Powers began . The surrender ceremony was held on September 2 , aboard the United States Navy battleship , at which officials from the Japanese government signed the Japanese Instrument of Surrender , thereby ending the hostilities . Allied civilians and military personnel alike celebrated V-J Day , the end of the war ; however , some isolated soldiers and personnel from Imperial Japan 's far-flung forces throughout Asia and the Pacific islands refused to surrender for months and years afterwards , some even refusing into the 1970s . The role of the atomic bombings in Japan 's unconditional surrender , and the ethics of the two attacks , is still debated . The state of war formally ended when the Treaty of San Francisco came into force on April 28 , 1952 . Four more years passed before Japan and the Soviet Union signed the Soviet -- Japanese Joint Declaration of 1956 , which formally brought an end to their state of war .

neg: Lazy (Deep Purple song) `` Lazy '' is a song by Deep Purple from their 1972 album Machine Head . A live performance of the song can be found on the album Made in Japan , released later the same year .   The song starts out as an instrumental , keyboardist Jon Lord plays an overdriven Hammond organ intro , followed by the main riff and with the solo swapping between him and guitarist Ritchie Blackmore . Vocalist Ian Gillan comes in with the vocals later in the song . He also uses harmonica both on the studio version and live . At over 7 minutes long , it is the longest track on the album , and live versions were often extended past 10 minutes .   The live version on Made in Japan features a theme from Hugo Alfvén 's `` Swedish Rhapsody # 1 '' , played by Ritchie Blackmore as a part of his solo . Additionally , Jon Lord includes the riff from the C Jam Blues in the intro .  Ritchie Blackmore would sometimes include the main riff from `` Lazy '' in live performances of the song `` Man on the Silver Mountain '' by Rainbow . Gillan defined the song as rhythm and blues .   Later live performances after the band 's reunion in 1984 tended to be much shorter , cutting out the intro and one of the verses . However , more recent performances with Steve Morse have gone back to the original arrangement .   Readers of Guitar World voted `` Lazy '' the 74th greatest guitar solo of all time .   Sections of this song were often used in Australia on the Channel 9 Wide World of Sports program when cutting to an ad .   Jesse Gress , writing for Guitar Player magazine , noted that Ritchie Blackmore 's `` bluesy head to ` Lazy ' ( from Deep Purple 's Machine Head ) fondly paraphrases Slowhand 's -LSB- Clapton 's -RSB- Bluesbreaker-era showcase ` Steppin ' Out ' right down to the same style of third-position swing-sixteenth G blues riffing '' .

neg: Hurricane Eyes Hurricane Eyes is the seventh studio album by Japanese heavy metal band Loudness . It was released in 1987 worldwide with standard English lyrics . A `` Japanese Version '' was subsequently released only in Japan later in the year with Niihara singing most of the lyrics in Japanese .  The album was produced by the famous producer and sound engineer Eddie Kramer , who had worked with the likes of The Rolling Stones , Led Zeppelin , Jimi Hendrix and Kiss . The song `` So Lonely '' , a reprise of `` Ares Lament '' from the album Disillusion of 1984 , was instead produced by Andy Johns , another world famous producer . This was the last Loudness ' album to enter the US Billboard 200 chart , where it remained for 4 weeks , peaking at No. 190 .

neg: Beatlemania in the United Kingdom The phenomenon known as Beatlemania originated in the United Kingdom , birthplace of the Beatles , when the band first realised enormous popularity there in 1963 . Returning in 1962 from a highly formative two-year residency in Germany , the Beatles achieved a commercial breakthrough with their second UK single release , `` Please Please Me '' early in 1963 , but gained `` Superstar '' status with the release of `` She Loves You '' later that year . There followed an almost non-stop series of concerts and tours , attended with feverish enthusiasm across the UK , for the whole of the following year . The Beatles ' popularity in the UK came to exceed even that of the notable American artists Tommy Roe , Chris Montez and Roy Orbison , whose UK chart success at the time did not keep them from being overshadowed by the Beatles during their 1963 nationwide tours with the lower-billed band -- an achievement previously unknown for a UK act .   With intense media interest in the Beatles during 1963 , the year was also taken up with TV shows , press interviews and a weekly radio show . Despite these demands the band found time for many sessions in the recording studio , releasing two albums and four singles during the year . 1963 was also the year when Lennon 's son Julian was born .   By the end of 1963 , Beatlemania would begin to spread internationally . The single `` I Want to Hold Your Hand '' entered the US charts on 18 January 1964 , selling one-and-a-half million copies in under three weeks , and the following month the Beatles made their first visit to America . The great interest in the Beatles brought about a major change in US attitudes to popular music and marked the start of the phenomenon known as the British Invasion .

neg: Blue Wild Angel: Live at the Isle of Wight Blue Wild Angel : Live at the Isle of Wight is a posthumous live album by Jimi Hendrix released on November 12 , 2002 . The album documents Hendrix 's last U.K. live performance at the Isle of Wight Festival on August 31 , 1970 , three weeks before his death . The set list for the concert contained songs from the original Experience albums , as well as new songs . Some were previously available on Isle of Wight ( 1971 ) and Live Isle of Wight '70 ( 1991 ) .   Included in the set was an adaptation of `` God Save the Queen '' and a cover of The Beatles ' `` Sgt. Pepper 's Lonely Hearts Club Band '' , played just before launching into `` Spanish Castle Magic '' . The 22-minute version of `` Machine Gun '' includes walkie-talkie interference from security personnel feeding through the sound equipment .   The CD set is more complete than the DVD release as it contains `` Midnight Lightning '' , `` Hey Baby ( New Rising Sun ) '' , and `` Hey Joe '' , three songs omitted from the DVD . There was also a `` highlights '' album released as a single disc , which contained eleven songs -- nine from disc one and two from disc two . It was re-released in 2003 as a three-disc `` Deluxe Sound & Vision Edition '' in a special box and slip cover format as part of Experience Hendrix 's plan to re-release most of Jimi Hendrix 's recorded material .

neg: Bron-Yr-Aur (instrumental) `` Bron-Yr-Aur '' ( -LSB- brɔn.ər.aɪr -RSB- ) is an acoustic guitar instrumental by English rock band Led Zeppelin . It is their second song to reference Bron-Yr-Aur , a rural retreat in Wales where Jimmy Page and Robert Plant wrote much of Led Zeppelin III . At two minutes and six seconds in duration , is the group 's shortest studio recording .   Bron-Yr-Aur was a holiday cottage used by Plant 's parents near the village of Furnace in North Ceredigion , Wales . Page and Plant spent time there after their Spring 1970 North American Tour , preparing for a follow-up album to Led Zeppelin II . The instrumental is a reflective and relaxed piece , and one of the last acoustic tunes released by the band . Page uses an open C6 tuning , played on a 1971 Martin D-28 . `` Poor Tom '' and `` Friends '' also use this tuning .   As a solo piece , Page receives the sole writer 's credit . Writer Mick Wall notes in his biography When Giants Walked the Earth that it was recorded during `` the original June 1970 Basing Street -LSB- Island Records Basing Street Studios -RSB- sessions for the third album . '' However , it does not appear on Led Zeppelin III , although the album includes a country music-inspired song with Plant 's vocal titled `` Bron-Y-Aur Stomp '' . When preparing their sixth album , Physical Graffiti , in 1975 , several songs recorded during sessions for earlier albums were chosen ; `` Bron-Yr-Aur '' was the oldest of the recordings to be selected .

neg: Deep Purple in Concert Deep Purple in Concert is a live album by the English hard rock band Deep Purple , recorded by the BBC for their `` In Concert '' live series in 1970 and 1972 . First released in 1980 in the UK , with the current US edition being made available in 2001 .

neg: Dahlia (album) Dahlia is the fifth studio album by Japanese heavy metal band X Japan , released on November 4 , 1996 by Atlantic Records . It is the band 's last album before breaking up the following year , and the last to feature new work by guitarist hide , due to his death two years later . The album is composed largely of ballads , with only a few tracks retaining the band 's heavier musical traits seen on previous releases . It topped the Oricon chart and stayed on the chart for only 15 weeks , but managed to sell over half a million copies . Seven , nearly all , of the album 's songs were released as singles , most of which also topped the singles chart and sold well .

neg: The Complete Studio Recordings (Led Zeppelin album) The Complete Studio Recordings is a ten compact disc box set by the English rock group Led Zeppelin , released by Atlantic Records on 24 September 1993 . It contains all nine of the original Led Zeppelin studio albums digitally remastered , and an expanded version of Coda . The albums are placed in chronological order with the exception of Presence which appears between Houses of the Holy and Physical Graffiti . The intention was to have the latter in one two-disc-sleeve .   The set 's version of Coda included some of the previously unreleased tracks that had surfaced on the box set series : `` Baby Come On Home '' , `` Travelling Riverside Blues '' , `` White Summer/Black Mountain Side '' , and `` Hey , Hey , What Can I Do '' . In 2007 , when the Led Zeppelin catalog was released to digital stores , the expanded track list for Coda was used , but omitted `` Travelling Riverside Blues '' because of its inclusion with BBC Sessions .   The set also includes a booklet featuring an extended essay by rock journalist Cameron Crowe and photos of the band .   The album cover depicts the inside structure of a zeppelin .   This title has been discontinued just prior to the launch of Mothership , and is now superseded by the Definitive Collection Mini LP Replica CD Boxset , which was released in September 2008 .

neg: Double album A double album ( or double record ) is an audio album which spans two units of the primary medium in which it is sold , typically records and compact discs . A double album is usually though not always released as such , because the recording is longer than the capacity of the medium . Recording artists often think of double albums as comprising a single piece artistically ; however , there are exceptions such as John Lennon 's Some Time in New York City and Pink Floyd 's Ummagumma ( both examples of one studio record and one live album packaged together ) and OutKast 's Speakerboxxx/The Love Below ( effectively two solo albums , one by each member of the duo ) . A classic example of this idea is Works ( Volume One ) by Emerson Lake and Palmer , where side one was Keith Emerson , two Greg Lake , three Carl Palmer while side four was by the entire group .   Since the advent of the compact disc , albums are sometimes released with a bonus disc featuring additional material as a supplement to the main album , with live tracks , studio out-takes , cut songs , or older unreleased material . One innovation is the accompaniment of a CD with a DVD of related material , such as video related to the album or DVD-Audio versions of the same recordings . These could be regarded as a new form of double album ; some such discs were also released on a two-sided format called DualDisc . Due to the limitations of the gramophone record , many albums primarily released on the format were under 40 minutes long . This has led to record labels re-releasing two of these albums on one CD , thus making a double album .   The same principles apply to the triple album , which comprises three units . Packages with more units than three are often packaged as a box set .
