Gonabadi Dervishes

gonabadi dervishes are a group of NEMAT ALLHI moslem sect but becaus the shrin of their leaders are located in the city of gonabad they are called in recent decade as gonabadi dervishes , this group of dervishes are more realestic group . they are educated ,successful comunity . 21 Feb 2006

a specific well-known notorious group in Qom, along with members of the police, attacked the temple belonging to the Gonabadi Dervishes of Iran and occupied it. The group that was part of the attack is known as the Fatemiyoon. This groups which resides in Qom whose some leaders are ideological supporters of ultra-conservative cleric Mesbah Yazdi are affiliated to the Imam Khomeini institute in Qom. The Fatemiyoon group entered the temple and imposed its ritual, and continued this while the owner and others protested their forced entry and ritual.

The occupation began when the occupiers applied pressure on the temple keeper living on the premises with his wife and infant, forcing him to leave his residence. They first shut their water supply, and then they prevented the delivery of the powder milk that was sent to the family for the infant. At this time other individuals belonging to the Dervish group who knew the temple keeper well and witnessed the events thus sympathizing with the family, forced their way into the temple and re-took it from the occupiers. On January 25th, 2006, when they entered the temple, it had been vacant for 3 years and sealed by officials. The Fatemiyoon group opened the seals after occupying the sanctuary. When the Dervishes re-took the building, they were shocked at what they learned. Inside the temple, the occupiers had installed sophisticated surveillance equipment that recorded the movement of large parts of the city of Qom while their eves-dropping equipment could pick up voice signals from quite afar. The location of the Shariat temple is on Eram Avenue, Shariat Street. Eram is the most important avenue in Qom, adjacent to the residences of many of the grand ayatollahs. So the theological center had been turned into a surveillance station to spy and eavesdrop on the grand ayatollahs of Qom.

After the Dervishes re-took their center, they in honesty listed all the equipment, in the presence of their lawyers, and returned them to the Fatemiyoon group. From this point on the whole story takes on a different twist. An unpleasant string of events follows.

After the Gonabadi Dervishes re-take their center, pressure on them to leave it begins and intensifies as time goes by. Officials call the Dervishes the “occupiers.” The Qom office of the Ministry of Intelligence asks the Dervishes to leave the building. This takes place while the Fatemiyoon were openly threatening the Dervishes. They ask them to leave so the Fatemiyoon can take over the building. At this time, the Qom Intelligence office arrests and detains the four lawyers (Amir Eslami, Omid Behrouzi, Golamreza Harsini, and Farshid Yadollahi) who had been defending and negotiating the rights of the Dervishes and their center for four days. When they are released, they are given an ultimatum: the Shariat temple must be vacated in three days, on February 11, 2006. During the three day period, the Dervishes knock on every door to find a sympathetic ear for their plight. They write letters to the leader’s office and to those of some grand ayatollahs. They argue that they have absolutely no issues with the government, regime, the Islamic Republic, etc. Nothing happens.

On February 11, 2005 about a hundred Gonabadi Dervishes had gathered inside and outside their temple. One of them explains that on that day, they wore a black strip around an arm, as a symbolic religious act sympathizing with the martyrdom in Shiism. “We even carried flowers and pastries,” he said. But there was no friendship in sight. Facing the Dervishes who had come from all over the country and included old, young, and women, was a column of policemen who totaled in four-digit numbers, who too had been brought in from different parts of the country. The alignment clearly signaled battle. In Qom, the Dervish leader known as Seyed Ahmadi Shariati, is well respected by the local police force, which explains the presence of the out-of-town policemen.

As time passed, more plain-clothes men who carried walkie-talkie radios and batons began to gather on the side of the policemen. They too comprised clerics and ordinary people, two of whom carried loudspeakers who spoke to the crowd across using insulting and threatening language. One of them was a well-known prayer leader known as Salahshoor, while another was a cleric called Shahshahani who was known in Kerman to be an accomplice in the serial assassinations of the Ministry of the Intelligence in late 1990s.

As the group facing the Dervishes grew in size, it began to surround them. But the Dervishes and others were not intimated, while still holding their flowers, pastries, and pictures of the current and former leader of the Islamic Republic, and those of the war martyrs.

The attack began as the sun set. “They beat everything and everybody with their electric batons, regardless of whether it was a man, woman, or child,” said one witness. Then after hours of that, they put the top of the temple and an area around it on fire, with the Dervishes and their supporters inside the fire ring. Then began the stone-throwing by the assailants. Those who tried to flee, were beaten to death or near it. “Next to me was a woman with her tiny infant. They pushed her so that her child fell to the ground. I picked up the child and noticed that he was hardly breathing because of the tear-gas smoke. Then they attacked me, one grabbed the child from my arms, and threw him into a water ditch on the side of the street,” said a man who had experienced the whole episode. The assailants wanted to capture everyone on the side of the Dervishes and so had brought in tens of buses for this purpose. By this time, people were running in all directions and trying to flee the scene. Some of the shop-owners gave refuge to those fleeing, but they too then became the subject of attack, until the victims left the shop.

Eventually they occupied the temple. They also occupied Shariati’s residence. The next day, bulldozers were brought in to demolish the temple and the residence, setting fire to the property inside it. Shariati had been threatened and left his residence prior to the attack, and so survived the assault.

When the dust settled, it is reported that some 2,000 individuals have been detailed and jailed (the governor of Qom puts the figure at 1,000). Arrest warrants have been issued for 20 individuals in addition to Shariati and his four lawyers. Another lawyer Bahman Nazari belonging to the sect who had traveled to Qom from Tabriz was immediately arrested as soon as he approached the officials to represent the detainees and presented his practice license.

Between the early 1600's and the mid 1800's Arabs primarily in North Africa (Barbary) had participated in the slave trade of Europeans.Pirates from famous cities such as Sale, Tunis, Algiers, and Tripoli kidnapped Christians and Jews from all over Europe to be traded as slaves. Many of these slaves were encouraged to convert to Islam through torture. European governments tried, often in vain, to negotiate the release of these slaves. Many of the Muslim rules were reluctant to release their precious 'white gold' and cheated the europeans or responded by seizing more ships. the Palace of Moulay Ismail was built almost entirely by European Christian slaves. The jews had a mixed role in the slave trade, often serving as slaves and slave owners depending on their nationality and economic status.

Suzanne Toolan. Sister Suzanne was born 1927 in Lansing, Michigan. At age seventeen she moved to Hollywood. In Hollywood she became a student of Richard Biggs. She earned a masters degree in humanities and then began her teaching career. She has directed choirs for high schools, colleges, parishes, and seminaries. In 1971 she came up with the song “I Am the Bread of Life”. It appeared in more hymnals and church books than any other song. It has even been translated into ten different languages. Suzanne Toolan values prayer, and it is a huge part of her life. She is known for her gentleness and quietness. She has amazing compositional skills that have increased the prayer life of many Catholics who have been to her schools or have listened to her music. She is currently a composer who still writes songs. Some other songs she wrote are Communion Processional Song, Is the Lord-Mission Hymn, and Holy, Holy, Holy. The way Suzanne Toolan made “I Am the Bread of Life” was, in 1971 she was working on some music for a Eucharistic song to be used at an archdiocesan event. Frustrated with her work, she tore up the words and threw it into a trash can. As she was leaving the room, she ran into a student who asked what music she was playing. The student thought it was very nice. She then took the scraps of paper and played it again. The song was later called “I Am the Bread of Life”.

"Pulling An Enright" is a personified term given to human qualities and characteristics that depict an array of irreversable, outrageous, and sometimes unexplainable series of events, errors, blunders, and funny mishaps.

The term is considered a literary criticism to name or describe the figure of speech which involves the concept of compromised events due to a discrepancy with timing, aptitude, knowledge, travel, pure chance/luck, alcohol, family, home improvement projects (DIY), food, or a combination of any of the above.

Its origins are said to have begun in Connecticut, but recent studies have found traces of Pulling An Enright in Upstate New York, New Jersey, Florida, Japan, and China. A strong correlation exists between Pulling An Enright and the element of marriage and children. It seems that adding the factors of wife and kids increases the likelihood that Pulling An Enright will be recorded for future references, and decreases the chances of ever letting down the said imprudent and entertaining fault by your peers.

The concept of Pulling An Enright sites a collection of insurmountable examples and unlikely, defeated tales.

Making timeless music is difficult and important. You may not fully understand how or why bands make such music, maybe you don’t even care.

Immune makes timeless music. An unearthly movement, that only after repeated listens begins to take shape. Not that these sounds are not immediate, some things just take more time and require a little more effort.

Reference points musically could head towards Brainiac, Massive Attack, Tool or the later work of Sneaker Pimps, but to compare Immune to others does it a huge disservice – everyone needs to feel loved...

Formed in early 2002 and currently based in Leeds, UK, Immune has wrapped itself up in its own world. The independent ethic owned by Immune has resulted in Gizeh Records (a label set-up and run by the band with members of Glissando), web/art design and putting on shows in and around the Leeds area.

2004 saw the release of ‘Elek’, a 3 track EP recorded and mixed by Immune in their own studio. It put Immune and Gizeh on the impossible musical map.

Immune's debut album '1/f' is released through Gizeh Recordings in April 2006.

Radio personality Producer Laura was born Laura Heywood, in Oakland, CA. She grew up with plans to be an actress, appearing in commercials and print advertisements for products such as Nintendo, TIME Magazine, Apple Computers, and GTE. She entered college at the [[University of Puget Sound]] in 1997 on an acting scholarship, but quickly re-focused her attention to campus radio station KUPS. She became an on-air host of several shows and was hired as General Manager in the fall of 2000. During her college years, she also honed her radio chops with summer internships with KFRC FM and the Sarah & Vinnie Morning show at KLLC (Alice@97.3) in San Francisco.

After graduating from UPS in 2001, Laura moved back to California and immediately went to work as the interim Morning Show Producer for the Gene & Julie Show at KZQZ (Z95.7 FM). This proved to be the perfect kickstart to a successful career in San Francisco radio.

Laura started off 2002 as an assistant producer for the John London Not Just Sports Show on KNBR 680 AM. In no time, Laura became a fun and controversial part of the on-air staff, titillating the audience by arguing with John & the guys about politics and sexuality. She quickly gained a fan following that made her an in-demand presence at station events.

While working at KNBR, Laura filled her schedule with many additional radio projects, including producing pre- and post-game broadcasts for Giants Baseball; hosting a weekend show at hip-hop station KWIN and a night show on light rock station KJOY; working on the production team for NFL game broadcasts; and launching a successful side career as a voice-over artist.

After two years with the John London Not Just Sports Show, Laura joined the staff at sister station 107.7 The Bone (KSAN), where she worked as the producer of the Lamont & Tonelli show as well as hosting the mid-day show. She continued to be extremely popular at live appearances, channeling that popularity into successful fundraising for various charities. She was also featured on a line of Laura Heywood merchandise including t-shirts, panties, lunch boxes, and Christmas ornaments.

In August of 2004, Laura was cast in a high-profile television commercial series for Dove Shampoo as part of the Campaign for Real Beauty. A long form version of the campaign can be seen at http://www.campaignforrealbeauty.com/scrollpage.asp?url=special_events.asp&;id=1779.

At the end of that year, Laura left Susquehanna Broadcasting (the home of KNBR & The Bone) and made the move to New York City, where she was hired by Sirius Satellite Radio as the producer for The Bower Show on the newly formed Maxim Radio. There, she was given the moniker "Producer Laura" and gained an international fan-base.

Laura continues as the producer and co-host of The Bower Show. Listeners love her ability to simultaneously be one of the guys (she takes charge of sports updates, and can chug a beer like a champ), but also flaunt her sexy side, with frequent references to her buxom frame and the popular contest "Pick Laura's Panties".

She is having the time of her life in New York, but hopes to someday return to the Bay Area to raise a family.

Gymnosophy was originally the doctrines of a sect of philosophers who practiced nudity and asceticism and meditation. In the early 20th century, the term was appropriated by several groups to denote a broad philosophy that included as a central thought that the nude human body is a natural condition and should be accepted widely for the betterment of society. This philosophy is related closely and, often interchangeably, with nudism and naturism.

DORIS (Doppler Orbitography and Radiopositioning Integrated by Satellite) is a tracking system using a dense network of ground beacons. The ground data is processed in precision and provides reference data for satellites in geostationary orbit.

The system consists of a satellite on-board package, a beacon network and a control and data-processing centre. The technology makes use of the Doppler effect, whereby a shift in radiofrequency signals emitted by the ground beacons and received by the satellites is measured.

The data provided serves to

  • help in the understanding of the dynamics of the solid Earth;
  • monitor glaciers, landslides and volcanoes;
  • improve the modeling of the Earth gravity field and of the ionosphere

  • I think, this guy from the bootlegzone (last lines) has gathered some good reasons for an article describing this historic double album :......1972, I ordered it from a London Dealer who got bust. After reading about it in the NME I gave up. Six months later out of the blue it arrived. I was amazed then and continue to love this stuff. The raw rock 'n roll energy of a band still playing and laughing together continues to confound the idea that the apple was rotten at the core. The original seemed great quality but has been improved on by susequent issues. However nothing can replace the thrill of getting that sudden brown paper surprise in '72; the start of a long and winding (expensive) road. All hail TAKRL. (must be an interesting bootlegger label - I don´t know).

  • Decline (but note that I am the nominator from Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Suzy_Parker_(Beatles_Song)). There are hundreds if not thousands of 'Beatlegs' and unless some evidence is presented to suggest that this one is especially notable it's an easy and obvious decline. Personally I've never heard of it and, yes, I had heard of the 'Suzy Parker' track! I'd also point out that writing an article on a bootleg album which contains that track is not an appropriate response to the AFD. It doesn't alter the fact that the track in question has only one thing going for it in terms of notability: it was by The Beatles. --kingboyk 01:07, 2 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Verb, to remove the possibility of lice or other surface parasites.

Human body lice, once a great scourge, are now a minor pest due to widespread delousing of soldiers and prisoners in the 20th century and eradication efforts in public schools. Soldiers in the US Armed Services were deloused by topical application of the pesticide DDT until it was banned due to environmental effects.

More recently, computer programmers will refer to a computer which has had viruses or other malicious software removed from it as having been "deloused". A deloused computer is considered less trustworthy than a computer which has never been infected.

Colouration in loudspeakers

Sources

Loudspeaker colouration {link from Impulse response page} refers to subjective characteristics of a loudspeaker system's performance that are not present in the original signal being fed to the speaker. Since the late 1930's these characteritics have been given descriptions that relate to the frequency band in which they are apparent such as nasal, quacky, honky and brittle. These is a good agreement between trained listeners as to the presence of colouration in a speaker. Examination of the coloured frequency band using conventional frequency response measuring audio test equipment may or may not reveal measureable disturbances. Sensitive high resolution and time domain measuring audio test equipment may reveal buried signals or slowly decaying resonances which may be otherwise masked or not troublesome to the average listener. There is no clear correlation between subjective colouration and measurable performance.

Loudspeaker cones manufactured from different materials such as plastic or metal have different mechanical and acoustic properties. They may have a similar frequency responses (sound pressure responses) but they are most likely to sound subjectively different and to exhibit different colourations which can sometimes be suppressed by applying a counter layer of a lossy material, such as PVA. This will however increase the moving mass and reduce efficiency and is not frequency selective.

In the 1960's The British Broadcasting Corporation's Research Department pioneered the use of plastic as a loudspeaker cone material as it offered lower colouration and greater repeatability than paper cones; this has become the primary cone material.

The Secure Socket Layer protocol was created by Netscape to ensure secure transactions between web servers and browsers. The protocol uses a third party, a Certificate Authority (CA), to identify one end or both end of the transactions. This is in short how it works.

  1. A browser requests a secure page (usually https://).
  2. The web server sends its public key with its certificate.
  3. The browser checks that the certificate was issued by a trusted party (usually a trusted root CA), that the certificate is still valid and that the certificate is related to the site contacted.
  4. The browser then uses the public key, to encrypt a random symmetric encryption key and sends it to the server with the encrypted URL required as well as other encrypted http data.
  5. The web server decrypts the symmetric encryption key using its private key and uses the symmetric key to decrypt the URL and http data.
  6. The web server sends back the requested html document and http data encrypted with the symmetric key.
  7. The browser decrypts the http data and html document using the symmetric key and displays the information.

David P Willoughby, who was a champion body builder in the early twentieth century, performed extensive anthropometrics measurements on highly-conditioned (male) athletes and found a direct proportionality between waist and height. His ideal form had a waist to height ratio of 45.8%. Willoughby also tabulated data for the morbidly obese, and found the same proportionality between waist and height, but with a waist to height ration of 57.7%.

Interestingly, although in the Metropolitan Life Tables the weight values are proportional to the square of the height (in accordance with the calculation of Quetelet's Index or Body Mass Index), in Willoughby's data the weights are proportional to the cube of the height (in accordance with Rohrer's Index).

The Willoughby athlete weight is then the average ideal weight for male athletes; strength-trainers may weigh more, while endurance athletes will weigh less.

Achintya Bheda-Abheda is a Vedanta doctrine taught by Chaitanya Mahaprabhu as a synthesis of the teachings of all the Vaishnava sampradayas. It means "paradoxically (achintya) dualistic (bheda) and monistic (abheda)".

This central concept of Gaudiya Vaishnava Theology teaches that the absolute reality can be understood as non-dual and unmanifest (immanent brahmajyoti) and as dual (transcendent personal God). Thus it can be considered a form of panentheism. It is the philosophy followed by ISKCON (Hare Krishna movement).

A group of Primary Schools in the UK and Europe, led by St John Fisher primary, have been working together to create a FREE website for Primary Schools on Citizenship. Their work can be viewed at www.timeforcitizenship.org . Over 3,000 schools have now registered with us.

We are hoping to get children working together to discuss aspects of Citizenship across these countries. We offer prizes for submissions to the Great School Projects and the ART gallery, and give children a role in the further advance of the website. There is a very popular Problem page - problems are sent in by children and answered by children.

Previous project winners were primary schools in the UK, France, Spain, India, Australia, Brussels, Poland, Turkey, Belarus, Lithuania, South Africa, Ireland and Bulgaria.

A library of FREE lesson plans is available to teachers to download and use. We ask in return that they send us some plans or some aspects of an exciting lesson they have taught – sharing best practice.

There is also a section involving parents and the emergency services, particularly the police. Various police forces are using the site to share their programmes and some of the "stuff" has been very well received!

If you would like to view our site for Primary schools by Primary schools, you may do so on the home page of www.timeforcitizenship.org .

Karan Bilimoria is the founder and CEO of Cobra beer. The son of a high-ranking officer in the Indian Army, he read Law at Cambridge before qualifying as a chartered accountant. Much to his family's dismay however, he rejected the stable accounting profession in favour of numerous small business ventures; though later in life he would point to his business grounding in accounting as a contributor to his success.

Bilimoria originated the idea for Cobra beer after being personally dissatisfied with lager beer in the UK, believing it to be a poor companion to Indian food. Cobra beer went on to be a massive commercial success, exploiting the boom in the Indian food industry in the UK in the 1990s. Today (2006), Cobra beer turns over £60million and is brewed in thirty countries.

Bilimoria has been awarded various accolades, including a CBE.

JÓZSEF GALAMB

(1881 - 1955)



Born in Makó, Galamb finished his education in Budapest at the predecessor of the present-day Donát Bánki Technical College. After receiving his diploma in mechanical engineering he worked at the Steel Engineering Factory in Diósgyőr as a draftsman, then at the Hungarian Automobile Co., where he won a postgraduate scholarship to Germany. In 1903 he worked in many German cities as a skilled worker. When he learned of the American Auto World Fair in 1904, he used his savings to travel to America by ship in October. He found employment as a toolmaker at the Westinghouse Corporation.

He joined the Ford Motor Company (nearly two years old at that time) as a designer in December 1905. Subsequent to redesigning the cooling system for the model-N, he became the chief designer of the company, and constructed a lot of parts of the famous model-T. From 1915 he worked on the Fordson-tractor plans. In 1921 he founded a scholarship for the poor students of his native town who wished to take up higher education at trade school. During World War I he was busy designing military hardware, e. g. anti-submarine detection systems. He visited Hungary many times, lecturing at the Association of Hungarian Engineers and Architects. During World War II on Ford's suggestion, he designed a small six-cylinder car, which was completed in 1942. On doctor's orders he retired from active work in 1944.

Team Eighth Wonder, a group of programmers/hackers that created several programs and hacks during the year 1998-2005.

Their leader 'ad4' created most of the content and releases that the group produced both released and unreleased programs. The group focused mostly on ICQ related tools and bugs, but there was a majority of Email programs as well.

The group was very quiet about what they did, not leaving traces so it is hard to determine what they did since nothing could be traced back, one trace however can be found on zone-h.org's deface mirror where one webserver compromise by ad4 has been mirrored. So it is safe to say that the group has both the skill and knowledge in the computer security industry.

Information points towards ad4 of Team Eighth Wonder and RaFa of World of Hell where close friends, making the rumors about ad4's involvement in hacking to be accurate.

AOL/ICQ had several times contacted Team Eighth Wonder about intellectual property rights and so claiming to go to court unless their 'wants' was met.

The group closed down in May 2005, unsure if it will restart again. It is still unknown exactly why the group closed down but rumors points in two directions, either the heat from authorities got too much or the members did not have time to continue developing and producting things for the community.

Last information about the group includes the members ad4 (leader/founder), TUBORG and x0 Former members include C4w3, masTa, ka0s, anemic Other members are unknown but sayings mention at least one more member located in Malaysia.

[VIKTOR SCHRECKENGOST (b. 1906)]

The son of a commercial potter in Sebring, Ohio, artist Viktor Schreckengost learned the craft of sculpting in clay from his father. In the mid-1920s, he enrolled at the Cleveland School of Art (now the Cleveland Institute of Art, or CIA) to study cartoon making, but after seeing an exhibition at the Cleveland Museum of Art he changed his focus to ceramics. Upon graduation in 1929, he studied ceramics in Vienna, Austria, where he began to build a reputation, not only for his art, but also as a jazz saxophonist. A year later, at the age of 25, he became the youngest faculty member at the CIA. In 1931, Schreckengost won the first of several awards for excellence in ceramics at the Cleveland Museum of Art, and his works were shown at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Panama-Pacific Exposition in San Francisco, and elsewhere.

By the mid-1930s, Schreckengost had begun to pursue his interest in industrial design. For American Limoges, he created the first modern mass-produced dinnerware, called Americana. Along with engineer Ray Spiller, Schreckengost designed the first-cab-over-engine truck for Cleveland's White Motor Company. By the end of the decade, he had designed the first Mercury Bicycle for Murray, Ohio. In 1939, the bicycle and The Four Elements in clay were displayed at the New York World's Fair.

In the 1940s, Schreckengost's designs for children's pedal cars (as well as bicycles and toys), helped Murray, Ohio become the world's largest manufacturer of pedal cars. His design and ceramic work was interrupted by World War II, when he was recruited by the Navy to develop a system for radar recognition that won him the Secretary of Navy's commendation. After the war, Schreckengost resumed his industrial design career creating products for Murray, Sears, General Electric, Salem China Company, and Harris Printing, among others. Approximately 100 million of his bicycles were manufactured by Murray, making it the largest bicycle-maker in the world. H

Throughout his distinguished career, Schreckengost remained on the faculty of the Cleveland Institute of Art, where he founded industrial design program in 1933, and which became one of the most important design programs in the U.S. As a teacher, his legacy is lasting, and he influenced many designers, including the creators of the Ford Mustang, the Little Tykes playhouses and plastic cars, and the Crest Spin toothbrush.

Nickname: Most offensive man on the planet

From a young age, Alex Batoff has taken an interest in offending people's religion, ethnicity, politics, and culture. When Batoff found out about the newly developing World Offensive Competitions (WOC), he was immediately interested. He then practiced by insulting everyone he knew.

In his rookie season on tour of the WOC, Batoff became the world champion of insults. In round 12, he defeated defending champion Minh Che with a classic Vietnamese joke.

The sport of WOC has taken a lot of heat in recent years, largely based on the comments made by Batoff. Yet, Alex Batoff has been fortunate enough to escape all assisination attempts thus far. One such attempt, using mustard gas, by anarchist Timothy Higgins left Batoff temporarily blind in one eye. Nevertheless, Alex continues to be offensive day after day.

[Black Sheep Ale]

Black Sheep Ale is a tradiitonal Ale which can be bought among many mining villages throuhgout britain. Despite the creamyly bitter taste of Black Sheep Ale there have been some who discredit it, and inevitably there are those who enjoy the 'fine' taste of the Ale. It is widely however, acreditted as "piss". This is a valid opinion, and must be apreciated.

G Parry

Mr G A Parry, OBE


Born in the suburbs of Gwynedd in the early 70s, Mr G A Parry was raised in local orphans from the age of just 2 years old. Moving from 'orphan-to-orphan', G developed intrest and experience of lifestyles and cultures, which he used as motivation throughout harsh times in his 'orphan career'. Determined that he deserved a better quality of life, his lack of knowledge of standards beyond the harsh lifestyle of the 1980s Gwynedd, developed a sense of confusion during Mr Parry's teens. This therefore, fuled his imagination during his school years, which later resulted in his earning of a placement in the University of Cambridge to study Cultural History.

Mr Parry fell in love with Mongolian culture, and decided to further his knowladge of the subject by exploring caves of Mongolian mountainious regions on completion of his Degree. Determined to explore Mongolia, Mr G A Parry resigned university life on entry for his PHD course, and headed for Mongolia.

He earned his respect within Mongolian tribes, and developed wealth from books and documents published in Mongolia, based on his discoveries. His intrest gradually turned towards the 'Father of Mongols',(as stated in Mr G Parry's book, Mongolia; A history from the deeps)Genghis Khan.

Determined to influence Genghis's work upon local tribes, Mr Parry has encouraged a number of 'dying' tradditional skills used for generations in Mongolia, such as wild butterfly-tracking.

Mr Parry had also pushed influence of Mongolian-British relations of the right-wing parties of the modern day British Government we have today. All though, he addmits, was by far the least he would suspect, Mr Parry was awarded an OBE for his influence of the Mongol-British relation.


Because of his knowledge of Mongolian culture, Mr Parry was selected for the role of a judge for the 1998 "Top 10 Cultural Legends of the Millennium".

The Alien Bounty Hunter is a shapeshifting extraterrestrial from the TV show "The X-Files". The Bounty Hunter is called upon a number of times throughout the sereis by the Syndicate, and sometimes by the Alien Colonists, to eliminate those who may be a threat to "the project". The Bounty Hunter is portrayed by Brian Thompson.

The Alien Bounty Hunter makes his first appearance in the Season 2 episode "Colony". In this appearance, he introduces a weapon that would become his staple, and one of show, a retractable, ice pick-style weapon that is used to kill aliens.

The Bounty Hunters biggest apeearances are in the two part, Season 3 finale/Season 4 opener, "Talitha Cumi" and "Herrenvolk", respectively. In these episodes, the Bounty Hunter is sent to eliminate Jeremiah Smith, a renegade alien. The Hunter catches up to Smith and Mulder ata gravel yard, but Mulder stabs him in the back of the neck with an ice pick weapon and escapes with Smith. When Scully goes to investigate the seemingly dead Bounty Hunter, the alien rises up and removes the weapon, Mulder having missed the fatal blow. He forces Scully to give the location of Mulder and Smith, and then departs to meet them. Their next encounter is in a large facility that holds numerous bees. He attacks Mulder, Smith and who is thought to be Mulder's sister, Samantha inside the facility, but has part of the hive pushed on him and is attacked by the bees as Mulder adn the others escape. He meets Mulder again, after Mulder has told Smith and Samantha to flee. The Bounty Hunter easily lifts Mulder up by the neck and delivers the line that replaces "The Truth is Out There" in the opening:

Mulder: Take me, let them go...

Bounty Hunter: You would give up your life for theirs?

Mulder: For my mothers.

Bounty Hunter: Everything dies.

The Bounty Hunter then knocks Mulder out and presumably kills Smith and Samantha.

The Bounty Hunter appears a few more times throughout the series, elimintaing an Alien Seperatist in "The Red and the Black" and an alien who endangers the project in "The Unnatural".

He makes his last appearance in the Season 8 episode "Without". He is dispatched to elminate Gibson Praise, who Scully is attempting to protect. He eventually manages to corner them, but is shot through the back of the neck by Scully and is killed.

Schank's Dynamic Memory was a product of Roger Schank, after his early work in themes and expanded a theory of case based reasoning in which it was proposed the best way to build AI, and to model thinking, was to produce programs that broadly matched a set of imput to previous knowledge and then tweaked the knowledge to meet the present conditions.

This idea was proposed against rule based reasoning where AI was made through a collection of rules.

Click-to-call services let users click a button and immediately speak with a customer service representative. Customers can either place a call over the computer using Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology or request an immediate call back from the advertiser by entering their phone number. Unlike a toll-free phone number, click-to-call services allow companies to monitor and control when and where online visitors migrate from the Web to the phone sales channel.

A solution for click-to-call is totally different (and much more complex) than simply hooking phones together. It also requires things like self-provisioning for buttons and links; ability to manage, control, and route calls; reporting and analysis tools; advanced functions like bi-directional data transfer; complementary tools like click-to-chat and call tracking; etc.

Click to call services "voice-enable" any online medium, including your Web site, advertising banners, search engine ads and even outbound customer e-mails. Instead of dialing a phone number, your customers simply click a customized graphic to speak immediately with a telephone sales or customer service agents. Using IP telephony-based click-to-call services, callers can use any land-line or cellular phone by simply entering their phone number. Standard phone calls are placed to both the customer and your inbound call center, and the calls are connected together. Or, if their PC is equipped with a microphone and speakers, customers can also choose to talk directly from their PC without installing any special software.

This allows companies to avoid the informational black hole of traditional phone contact by opening the door to bi-directional data passing and increased opportunities for collaboration between buyers and sellers. Plus, it ensures continuity of experience for the end-user between the online and offline channel. In the case of an online transaction, users that click to call from an e-commerce Web site won't have to be re-verified or authenticated by the call center since the context of their Web session is delivered straight to the call center agent's desktop. This equips the call center agent with the information they need to better assist the customer, and it relieves the usual customer anxiety of having to start all over again when they jump from the Web to the voice channel.

The ability to smoothly transition customers from a Web session to a voice channel is one of the largest potential benefits of using IP-based click to call services. Conventional phone calls cause a very disruptive gap in the customer experience, because customers are forced to abandon their Web sessions and literally “start all over again” with a call center agent.

Cross-channel data passing ensures a seamless continuity of experience by transferring information about the customer and the context of their online session directly to the call center at the time of call initiation. The call center software can be configured to display this information directly on the agent's desktop screen, or it can use the incoming data values to trigger lookups into the company’s own databases to retrieve related details (Customer records, purchase history, billing information, etc.)

Similar to pay per click, pay per call is a business model for ad listings in search engines and directories that allows publishers to charge local advertisers on a per-call basis for each lead (call) they generate. The term "pay per call" is sometimes confused with click to call. Click-to-call, along with call tracking, is a technology that enables the “pay-per-call” business model.

According to the Kelsey Group, the pay-per-phone-call market is expected to reach US$3.7 billion by 2010.
