As MAD Magazine pointed out on its cover for the March 1961 issue, this was the first " upside-up " year — i. e., one in which the numerals that form the year look the same as when the numerals are rotated upside down — since 1881.

The supreme power and source of being above all principalities and powers and angels ( such is evidently the reference of Epiphanius's αὐτῶν: Irenaeus substitutes " heavens ," which in this connexion comes to much the same thing ) is Abrasax, the Greek letters of whose name added together as numerals make up 365, the number of the heavens ; whence, they apparently said, the year has 365 days, and the human body 365 members.

Unfortunately the inscription on the right which might have provided a check ( Margaret would have been aged 25 – 28 at the time of this portrait ) has been truncated ; although the Roman numerals of the year can apply only to 1565-8, the age of the sitter cannot be ascertained with any useful accuracy.

At that time consideration will be given to whether in the light of the United States supplies of rice available for Title 1, disposal, India's production, consumption and stocks of food grains, other imports from the United States and countries friendly to the United States, India's storage capacity, and other related factors, any increase would be possible in the portion of the total rice programmed which is currently planned for procurement during the first year.

`` Last year your Tennessee Williams told our Dilys Powell, in a television program, that it is the task of the playwright to throw light into the dark corners of the human heart.

The light year is often used in popular works, but is not an approved non-SI unit.

Modern figures give a proper motion of 7 arcseconds / year, distance 30 light years, so the displacement is 3 arcminutes and a half.

Closest approach will happen in about 4, 000 years, when the star will be a few hundredths of a light year closer to Earth than it is today.

Additional buildings have been constructed on an average of more than one per year, and most have been faced with light yellow brick similar to that chosen for the original buildings.

The plants are raised from seed, sown either in a hot bed or in the open garden according to the season of the year, and after one or two thinnings and transplantings, they are, on attaining a height of 15 – 20 cm, planted out in deep trenches for convenience of blanching, which is effected by earthing up to exclude light from the stems.

Coyotes shed once a year, beginning in May with light hair loss, ending in July after heavy shedding.

Beds are given frequent light application of nitrogen fertilizer during the first year.

Only a year later, at the age of 39, Doppler gave a lecture to the Royal Bohemian Society of Sciences and subsequently published his most notable work, " Über das farbige Licht der Doppelsterne und einiger anderer Gestirne des Himmels " ( On the coloured light of the binary stars and some other stars of the heavens ).

Simpler and cruder examples from the same year occurs in William S. Hart ' sThe Narrow Trail, in which a single shot of the mouth of San Francisco Bay taken against the light ( the Golden Gate ) is preceded by a narrative title explaining its symbolic function in the story.

It should be noted however that even much more sensitive radio telescopes than the currently available on Earth would not be able to detect non-directional radio signals even at a fraction of a light year, so it's questionable whether any such signals could be detected by an extraterrestrial civilization.

Those countries marked in light blue keep their clocks on UTC / GMT / WET year round.

These ideas can be countered by the fact that during the winter, the time of year in which UV light is most scarce at northern latitudes, the ground is often covered with white snow.

Since Brighid represented the light half of the year, and the power that will bring people from the dark season of winter into spring, her presence was very important at this time of year.

Around 1439, Gutenberg was involved in a financial misadventure making polished metal mirrors ( which were believed to capture holy light from religious relics ) for sale to pilgrims to Aachen: in 1439 the city was planning to exhibit its collection of relics from Emperor Charlemagne but the event was delayed by one year due to a severe flood and the capital already spent could not be repaid.

Later in the same year Einstein derived the Lorentz transformation under the assumptions of the principle of relativity and the constancy of the speed of light in any inertial reference frame,

The following year, Gustav Kirchhoff wrote a paper in which he showed that the speed of a signal along an electric wire was equal to the speed of light.

Rainfall is light to moderate throughout the year with 169 wet days.

On 15 October 1999 ( almost a year before the Sydney 2000 Games ), a memorial plaque was unveiled in one of the large light towers ( Tower 14 ) outside the Sydney Olympic Stadium.

This even applies to quatrains that contain specific dates, such as III. 77, which predicts ' in 1727, in October, the king of Persia be captured by those of Egypt ' — a prophecy that has, as ever, been interpreted retrospectively in the light of later events, in this case as though it presaged the known peace treaty between the Ottoman Empire and Persia of that year.

To show this, we divide the universe into a series of concentric shells, 1 light year thick ( say ).
