Hood piercing - Hood piercing A hood piercing is a piercing through the hood surrounding the clitoris. There are two main types of hood piercing, the vertical hood and the horizontal hood. As the name indicates, the difference is in the direction the piercing is oriented in the skin above the clitoris. The vertical hood adds to clitoral sensitivity while the horizontal hood is primarily decorative. Hood piercings are probably the most common female piercings, due in part to the fact that they are both sensual and fast-healing. Ideally the bead of the ring rests on the aroused clitoris.

Battle of Jutland - dreadnoughts and three battlecruisers left Scapa Flow under Admiral John Jellicoe before Hipper left the Jade on the 30th May.

The Fleets There was no chance that the German fleet would seek an head-to-head encounter with the British. The Royal Navy's superiority in numbers was massive - thirty-three dreadnoughts compared to eighteen German craft. During the battle the actual force under Jellicoe was twenty-eight dreadnoughts and nine battlecruisers, while Scheer had sixteen dreadnoughts, five battlecruisers and six obsolete pre-dreadnoughts.

Fume hood - Fume hood A fume hood, also called a fume cupboard, or colloquially just a "hood," is a critical piece of safety equipment in any chemistry laboratory, designed to ensure proper ventilation of hazardous fumes. The fume hood is generally a large working area in which chemical reagents can be placed. A constant air flow is created through the device, usually using fans, exhausting air through the top of the fume hood and out of the building. If the hood is working properly, most or all of the vapors from any chemical reagents placed in the hood will be exhausted from the laboratory area, thus reducing the health risk to the laboratory technicians. To determine whether a chemical is likely to require a fume hood for safe usage,.

Katars ceased being in common use in the 19th century..
Jar Jar Binks - than a highly marketable "gimmick". The appearance of Jar Jar, before, during and after the release of the film on a rash of merchandise products and in almost ubiquitous marketing tie-ins and cross promotions did little to allay the fear that Lucas had, indeed, 'sold out'. (It should be noted that similar charges were levelled at the appearance of the teddy-bear like Ewoks in 1983's Return of the Jedi.) Some of the more venomous and piercing charges against the character of Jar Jar (and subsequently against Lucas, his creator) suggest that Jar Jar represents the racist "comedy relief" stereotype seen in many motion pictures of the first half of the 20th century. His dialect, along with his bodily expressions and tendency to get into trouble, was reminiscent of Stepin Fetchit and.
Jesus Christ as the Messiah - answered (Mark 12:29-30) that the greatest commandment is "You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind" (echoing Deut. 6:5), and at the same time he said that the commandment "You must love your neighbor as yourself" (found in Lev. 19:18) is as important. Jesus asked his disciples "Who do you say [I] am?" Peter answered, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God." Jesus replied, "You are a blessed man!... So now I say to you: You are Peter and on this rock I will build my community. And the gates of hell can never overpower it. I will give you the keys to the kingdom of Heaven: whatever you bind on earth.
Generation X - by Douglas Coupland in his book Generation X: Tales for an Accelerated Culture, who took it from a sociological text by Paul Fussell.

Geography of Algeria - sea through the encircling hills. To the south this region is divided by the Great Atlas from the deserts of the Sahara, with its oases, in which the boundary of Algeria is lost.

Gun politics - gun control advocates claim that only those types of weapons available to the public at the time the Second Amendment was ratified are protected by the Second Amendment; thus, they claim, Americans should only be allowed flint-lock muskets. While the technology of firearm known to the Framers was primitive by comparison to today's weapons, individuals at that time were free to own a greater amount of destructive force than today. At the time of the nation's founding, individuals were free to own any weapon known, including cannons, field pieces and even fully-armed warships of the day. In fact, up until the National Firearms Act of 1934, ordinary Americans could lawfully own any weapons available anywhere, including anything the US military used, such as tanks, artillery, bombs and even high-explosives. No licenses.
KE-penetrator - off as soon as the round leaves the barrel. KE-penetrators for tanks are commonly just 2-3 centimeters in diameter, and 50-60 centimeters long. To maximize the amount of kinetic energy released on the target, the penetrator must be made of an hard and heavy material, such as tungsten or depleted uranium. If the penetrator was in a soft material such as lead its kinetic energy would be dissipated as heat hitting the hard armor and no effective penetration would happen. Other names for KE-penetrators include APFSDS (Armour Piercing Fin Stabilized Discarding Sabot) and long-rod penetrator. It is generally accepted that KE-penetrators are the most effective ammunition in penetrating armour today..
