Ap-6 . the Rubicon Is Crossed 191 Appendix 6 1) What Is the Rubicon
Ap-6 . The Rubicon is crossed 191 Appendix 6 1) What is the Rubicon? It is a stream near Rimini, Italy. 2) What is significant about the stream that crossing it is so well known? Neither crossing the Rubicon nor the people who cross it is necessarily significant. Julius Caesar made it significant by saying "the die is cast" and by ceremoniously crossing the Rubicon as a symbol of defiance to the orders of the ruler of Rome, Pompey, and the Roman government. They had ordered Julius to return to Rome by disbanding his army, as he returned from defeating Gaul. As Julius Caesar marched to Rome, Pompey fled. Eventually the Senate elected Julius dictator for life in 49 BC. In 44 BC Senator Brutus stabbed Julius, the benevolent duce (leader) to death (Kubly and Ross, 1961). 3) Why would the defiance of a dictator become the cry that so many revere? Julius Caesar was no simple dictator. He felt that he was a descendent of Jupiter. He studied and practiced law, and even was a Pontus Maximus (interpreter of the messages of the Gods) of Rome before marching as the general to subjugate Gaul (France). He always shared his exploits to the plebeians (landless Romans), who assembled in the Roman central town of activity (the Forum) as he marched along the Via Sacra (the sacred street of the Forum). He was well liked by the plebeians, though less so by the patricians (rich Romans including senators) of Republican Rome. He had a sense that he was going to reform the republic and make it more responsive to the Ap-6 . -

The Brief Wondrous Tournament of WAO - Málà Yousufzai, served extra spicy Editors: Will Alston, Joey Goldman, James Lasker, Jason Cheng, Naveed Chowdhury, and Jonathan Luck, with writing assistance from Athena Kern and Shan Kothari. Packet by Carson et al TOSSUPS 1. This compound is released upon hydrolysis of compounds such as DMDM hydantoin [high-DAN- toe-in] and Quaternium-15. This compound is the lighter of the two monomers used to form melamine resin and Novolac. A pyridine derivative with no substituent at the 4 position is produced by the reaction of this compound with two beta-keto esters in the Hantzsch synthesis. An amine nucleophilically attacks this compound in the first step of a reaction which forms a beta-amino carbonyl, a compound also called a (*) Mannich base. The proton NMR spectrum of this compound consists of only one peak at around 9.6 ppm. In ChIP, this compound is used to cross-link DNA to proteins. It is the simplest and most common fixating agent used in biology experiments. Oxidizing methanol produces -- for 10 points -- what simplest aldehyde, which is used to preserve dead bodies? ANSWER: formaldehyde [or methanal or CH2O; do not accept or prompt on “methanol”] 2. In a story by this author, a character advises his cousin that one ought to beg from courting couples rather married ones. That story begins with its central character daydreaming about dodgem cars while his teacher talks about Masterman Ready and concludes with his cousin Bert trying to break them onto the title carousel at the Goose Fair. The family of the narrator of another story by this man entertains itself by muting the TV during politician’s speeches. -
The Italian Military Presence in Anatolia (1919-1922)
The Italian military presence in Anatolia (1919-1922) The chronicle of an Italian disenchanted expansionistic attempt Michael Malinconi More than a century ago, a young Italy, still exhausted from the sacrifice plaid in War World I, occupied militarily the southern Anatolic peninsula. The operation revealed the future Italian Mediterranean strategies: clumsy, without a clear aim, doomed to failure and to a non-honourable withdraw without gains. Premises The Ottoman Empire's destiny after WWI appeared regulated by many agreements between the Allies during the war: The Treaty of London (1915), in which Italy negotiated, as a reward for its intervention beside the Triple Entente, as well as the regions of Trentino-Alto Adige, Venezia Giulia and few territories of Dalmatia, even the port of Antalya and its contiguous territories with important coal basins. As stated by Article 9 of the Treaty: “Generally speaking, France, Great Britain and Russia recognise that Italy is interested in the maintenance of the balance of power in the Mediterranean and that, in the event of the total or partial partition of Turkey in Asia, she ought to obtain a just share of the Mediterranean region adjacent to the province of Antalya, where Italy has already acquired rights and interests which formed the subject of an Italo-British convention. The zone which shall eventually be allotted to Italy shall be delimited, at the proper time, due account being taken of the existing interests of France and Great Britain. The interests of Italy shall also be taken into consideration in the event of the territorial integrity of the Turkish Empire being maintained and of alterations being made in the zones of interest of the Powers. -

KEON ESKY ii I dedicate this thesis to my late father who would have wanted me to embark on such a journey, and to my partner who with patience and love has never stopped believing that I could do it. KEON ESKY iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis owes a debt of gratitude to many people in many different countries, and indeed continents. They have all contributed in various measures to the completion of this endeavour. However, this study is deeply indebted first and foremost to my supervisor Dr. Francesco Borghesi. Without his assistance throughout these many years, this thesis would not have been possible. For his support, patience, motivation, and vast knowledge I shall be forever thankful. He truly was my Virgil. Besides my supervisor, I would like to thank the whole Department of Italian Studies at the University of Sydney, who have patiently worked with me and assisted me when I needed it. My sincere thanks go to Dr. Rubino and the rest of the committees that in the years have formed the panel for the Annual Reviews for their insightful comments and encouragement, but equally for their firm questioning, which helped me widening the scope of my research and accept other perspectives. -

The Buildup of the German War Economy: the Importance of the Nazi-Soviet Economic Agreements of 1939 and 1940 by Samantha Carl I
The Buildup of the German War Economy: The Importance of the Nazi-Soviet Economic Agreements of 1939 and 1940 By Samantha Carl INTRODUCTION German-Soviet relations in the early half of the twentieth century have been marked by periods of rapprochement followed by increasing tensions. After World War I, where the nations fought on opposite sides, Germany and the Soviet Union focused on their respective domestic problems and tensions began to ease. During the 1920s, Germany and the Soviet Union moved toward normal relations with the signing of the Treaty of Rapallo in 1922.(1) Tensions were once again apparent after 1933, when Adolf Hitler gained power in Germany. Using propaganda and anti-Bolshevik rhetoric, Hitler depicted the Soviet Union as Germany's true enemy.(2) Despite the animosity between the two nations, the benefits of trade enabled them to maintain economic relations throughout the inter-war period. It was this very relationship that paved the way for the Nazi-Soviet Non-Aggression Pact of 1939 and the subsequent outbreak of World War II. Nazi-Soviet relations on the eve of the war were vital to the war movement of each respective nation. In essence, the conclusion of the Nazi-Soviet Non-Aggression Pact on August 23, 1939 allowed Germany to augment its war effort while diminishing the Soviet fear of a German invasion.(3) The betterment of relations was a carefully planned program in which Hitler sought to achieve two important goals. First, he sought to prevent a two-front war from developing upon the invasion of Poland. Second, he sought to gain valuable raw materials that were necessary for the war movement.(4) The only way to meet these goals was to pursue the completion of two pacts with the Soviet Union: an economic agreement as well as a political one. -

1 PARIS 1919: ITALY POSITION PAPER War Experience The
PARIS 1919: ITALY POSITION PAPER War Experience The conflict was a tremendous strain for a society already divided between a prosperous, industrializing north and an agrarian, tradition-bound, and less affluent south. The great promise of genuine unification of the 1860s remained elusive. Italy’s economy had grown only slowly, and Italy’s brief forays into foreign affairs had been quite embarrassing, and in the case of its defeat by the Ethiopians at Aduwa in 1896, downright humiliating. When the First War broke out, Italy was allied to its traditional enemy Austria-Hungary as well as to Germany. Under the terms of the Triple Alliance, however, Italy was only obliged to defend its allies if they were attacked first. The Italians used the fact that Austria-Hungary had declared on Serbia as a reason to remain neutral. In any event, at that early stage, little enthusiasm was present among Italians for entering a conflict that many believed had little to do with their nation’s interest. As the war dragged on, however, an increasing number of liberals, republicans, socialists and nationalists, certainly not mutually exclusive, began arguing for intervention on the Allied side. By 1915, when negotiations with the Allies commenced in this regard, the latter appeared to be doing quite well. In addition, and perhaps more importantly, the Allies were prepared to offer Italy a better deal than the Central Powers. First and foremost, Italy coveted Austro-Hungarian territory. The Allies, for their part, were anxious to break the deadlock of the Western Front by attacking the enemy elsewhere. -
BATTLESTAR GALACTICA and PHILOSOPHY:Knowledge Here
BATTLESTAR GALACTICA AND PHILOSOPHY The Blackwell Philosophy and PopCulture Series Series editor William Irwin A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down, and a healthy help- ing of popular culture clears the cobwebs from Kant. Philosophy has had a public relations problem for a few centuries now. This series aims to change that, showing that philosophy is relevant to your life—and not just for answering the big questions like “To be or not to be?” but for answering the little questions: “To watch or not to watch South Park?” Thinking deeply about TV, movies, and music doesn’t make you a “complete idiot.” In fact it might make you a philosopher, someone who believes the unexamined life is not worth living and the unexamined cartoon is not worth watching.

MEMORIAL MEDAL of the RIJEKA EXPEDITION (Medaglia
Prister: Spomen-medalja ekspedicije u Rijeku Num. vijesti, broj 72., Zagreb, 2019. SUMMARY MEMORIAL MEDAL OF THE RIJEKA EXPEDITION (Medaglia commemorativa della spedizione di Fiume) The Croatian Sabor (parliament) broke off state links with the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy on 29 October 1918. On that day the Croatian National Council in Rijeka received the order from Zagreb to take over rule in the city. Dr Rikard Lenac (1869- 1943) was appointed Governor of Rijeka, but this did not resolve the situation. The newly-created State of Slovenes, Croats and Serbs, founded on 29 October 1918, could not defend Croatia’s rule in Rijeka. Conflict broke out between Croatia and Italy, and to prevent it the Joint Allied Command was established on 3 November 1918. The regular Italian army was also part of the international forces, and this showed itself decisive for the further fate of the city. On 16 November 1918, units of the Italian army broke into the Governor’s Palace, evicted Dr Rikard Lenac from it, took over Rijeka and occupied Sušak. A serious dispute broke out among the Allies because of Rijeka, and the situation in the city was at boiling point because in the spring of 1919 almost twenty thousand armed Italians were stationed there, and also several battalions of British, French and American soldiers. Under international pressure, the Italian National Council was disbanded and the members of the Rijeka Legion were banished from the city. On 27 August 1919, the First Regiment of Sardinian Grenadiers also had to leave Rijeka. This military unit was transferred to Ronchi near Trieste.
