Aeschylus travelled to Sicily once or twice in the 470s BC, having been invited by Hiero I of Syracuse, a major Greek city on the eastern side of the island ; and during one of these trips he produced The Women of Aetna ( in honor of the city founded by Hieron ) and restaged his Persians.

With the withdrawal of these states, a congress was called on the holy island of Delos to institute a new alliance to continue the fight against the Persians ; hence the modern designation " Delian League ".

The eldest of these, Atlas, was made rightful king of the entire island and the ocean ( called the Atlantic Ocean in his honor ), and was given the mountain of his birth and the surrounding area as his fiefdom.

Indeed, according to the Chronicle of Monemvasia, the island served as a refuge for the Corinthians fleeing these incursions.

He did not grasp the cosmological implications of this fact, and indeed at the time it was highly controversial whether or not these nebulae were " island universes " outside our Milky Way.

The island contains five reserves of the Mi ' kmaq Nation, these being: Eskasoni, Membertou, Wagmatcook, Waycobah, and Potlotek / Chapel Island.

There are four species of snake on the island and these are not dangerous to humans.

The workers lived at these locations, and at villages scattered around the island.

As these issues affect the BIOT as a whole, not just the island of Diego Garcia, they are more appropriately and completely addressed in the Wikipedia articles British Indian Ocean Territory and Depopulation of Diego Garcia.

In this work he depicted a land where there would be freedom of religion-showing a Jew treated fairly and equally in an island of Christians, but it has been debated whether this work had influenced others reforms, such as greater rights for women, the abolition of slavery, elimination of debtors ' prisons, separation of church and state, and freedom of political expression, although there is no hint of these reforms in The New Atlantis itself.

The island along with smaller minor islands are split into eight regencies ( local government districts ); from west to east these are: Manggarai Barat ( West Manggarai ), Manggarai Tengah ( Central Manggarai ), Manggarai Timur ( East Manggarai ), Ngada, Nagekeo, Ende, Sikka and Flores Timur ( East Flores ).

The island has many schools and courses dedicated to teaching these sports.

Separated from the four main island groups are the islands of Nukuoro and Kapingamarangi, which geographically and politically are part of Micronesia, but linguistically and culturally form part of Polynesia: the languages spoken on these two islands are of the Samoic family of Polynesian languages.

These would later be recognized as immense conglomerations of stars, when the true distance to these objects began to be appreciated, and they would be termed island universes.

In 1755, Immanuel Kant introduced the term " island universe " for these distant nebulae.

Today remnants of these immigrants live throughout the island, but the larger number reside in Samaná, a peninsula on the Dominican side of the island.

The colonial terms Saint-Domingue and Santo Domingo are sometimes still applied to the whole island, although these names refer, respectively, to the colonies that became Haiti and the Dominican Republic.

Between these two shelves lie Sulawesi, Nusa Tenggara ( also known as the Lesser Sunda Islands ), and the Maluku Islands ( or the Moluccas ), which form a second island group where the surrounding seas in some places reach in depth.

" Certain joint policy and executive bodies were created between Northern Ireland, the part of the island that remained in the United Kingdom, and the Republic of Ireland, and these were given executive authority.

The Firth of Clyde, in which these island lie, is north of the Irish Sea and has numerous branching inlets, some of them substantial features in their own right.

In return these privateers kept the other colonial powers from attacking the island.

There were, in fact, no Hull whalers in either of these years, the first Hull whaling expedition having been sent to the island only in 1616 ( see below ).

The captains of these ships — Jan Jacobszoon May van Schellinkhout on the Gouden Cath ( Golden Cat ) and Jacob de Gouwenaer on the Orangienboom ( Orange Tree )— named it Mr. Joris Eylant after the Dutch cartographer Joris Carolus who was on board and mapped the island.

Yet he never allowed these models to become fixed in his mind ; ;

Since most European cars average more miles per gallon of gasoline than American cars, it naturally follows that the cost per kilometer for these models will be less, but the greater seating capacity of the large American cars will equalize this, provided your group is sufficiently large to fill a 7-passenger limousine.

the important point, however, is that these magnificent achievements, unlike those of later decades, were only incidentally influenced by Oriental models.

There are three classes of models used in the analysis of variance, and these are outlined here.

Equivalently, these statements are true in all models of ZFC but false in some models of ZF.

Oceanic models have shown that the opening of these two passages limited polar heat convergence and caused a cooling of sea surface temperatures by several degrees ; other models have shown that CO < sub > 2 </ sub > levels also played a significant role in the glaciation of Antarctica < sup >.</ sup >

In addition to these geometrical constructions, Dürer discusses in this last book of Underweysung der Messung an assortment of mechanisms for drawing in perspective from models and provides woodcut illustrations of these methods that are often reproduced in discussions of perspective.

( b ) Sacred furniture, such as models or actual examples of ritual objects ; of these we have also numerous pictorial representations.

According to these models, a necessary ( but not sufficient ) condition for the occurrence of amorphous phases is that T < sub > h </ sub > has to be smaller than 0. 3, that is the deposition temperature must be below 30 % of the melting temperature.

For these tip models, solutions to the field may be approximated or obtained analytically.

By the 1930s, statisticians and models built on statistical reasoning had helped to resolve these differences and to produce the neo-Darwinian modern evolutionary synthesis.

By making these data available to local public health officials in real time, most models of anthrax epidemics indicate that more than 80 % of an exposed population can receive antibiotic treatment before becoming symptomatic, and thus avoid the moderately high mortality of the disease.

Each of these methods contributes useful priors for " regular " one-parameter problems, and each prior can handle some challenging statistical models ( with " irregularity " or several parameters ).

Also, some users complain that the resulting prints are difficult to write on, as the wax tends to repel inks from pens, and are difficult to feed through automatic document feeders, but these traits have been significantly reduced in later models.

The effect on cosmology of the dark energy that these models describe is given by the dark energy's equation of state, which varies depending upon the theory.

In this sense they are reminiscent of the oscillatory universe proposed by Richard Chace Tolman: however in Tolman's model the total age of the universe is necessarily finite, while in these models this is not necessarily so.

Some critics of this approach feel that while these models approach biological reality as a representation of how the system works, they lack explanatory powers because complicated systems of connections with even simple rules are extremely complex and often less interpretable than the system they model.

Early twentieth-century experiments on the physics of very small-scale phenomena led to the discovery of phenomena which could not be predicted on the basis of classical physics, and to the development of new models ( theories ) that described and predicted very accurately these micro-scale phenomena.

The most talked-about applications of these models in recent years have been their use to infer the consequences of increasing greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, primarily carbon dioxide ( see greenhouse gas ).

Bader has demonstrated that these empirically useful models are connected with the topology of the quantum charge density.

The most pervasive influence on these languages has been syntactical, and they tend to combine the recognizable expression and statement syntax of C with underlying type systems and data models that can be radically different.

Large submarines ( for example, Echo and Oscar classes ) were developed to carry these weapons and shadow US battle groups at sea, and large bombers ( for example, Backfire, Bear, and Blackjack models ) were equipped with the weapons in their air-launched cruise missile ( ALCM ) configuration.
