In their first appearance, for example, Ximénez has trouble with listing their weapons (" Amongst our weaponry are such diverse elements as fear, surprise, ruthless efficiency, an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope, and nice red uniforms — oh damn!

It is generally believed that Ximénez borrowed a phonetic manuscript from a parishioner for his source, although Néstor Quiroa points out that " such a manuscript has never been found, and thus Ximenez's work represents the only source for scholarly studies.

This presents a contradiction because the item which Ximénez has in his possession is not Popol Vuh, and a carefully guarded item is not likely to have been easily available to Ximénez.

Legend has it that Pedro Ximénez originated in the Canary Islands before being taken to the Rhine.

Pedro Ximénez has cottony shoots, smallish 5-lobed leaves, elliptic berries, smallish conic bunches, and late fruit set.

There is some dispute whether the land was named at this time — no record exists of Ximénez giving it a name.

All of the letters of the Spanish alphabet are represented except for the letters " I " ( in the Spanish orthography of the time " Y " was used instead of an initial " I "), " K " and " W " ( there are no Spanish surnames starting with these letters ) and " X " ( due to a consonant shift, earlier surnames like Ximénez were spelled Jiménez, with a J, by that time.

Ximénez shouts, with a particular and high-pitched emphasis on the first syllable: " Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!

" At this point, the Inquisition — consisting of Cardinal Ximénez ( Michael Palin ), and his assistants Cardinal Biggles ( Terry Jones ), and Cardinal Fang ( Terry Gilliam )— burst into the room to the sound of a jarring musical sting.

") Ximénez states the number of weapons they have (" Our two / three / four weapons are ..."), then lists one more than he had counted, before starting again using a higher number.

After several attempts, Ximénez states that he'll come in again, and herds the Inquisition back off the set.

This is repeated two or three times before Ximénez relents, skipping the recitation and continuing further into Inquisition activity.

Ximénez repeatedly runs into the problem of not being able to torture anyone effectively.

When poking the victim with soft cushions produces no confession, Ximénez inquires whether his assistants had got all the stuffing together into one end of the cushions, for supposed maximum effectiveness.

Thus, most fortified wines are regarded as distinct from dessert wines, but some of the less strong fortified white wines, such as Pedro Ximénez sherry and Muscat de Beaumes-de-Venise, are regarded as honorary dessert wines.

The main fortified wines drunk with dessert are sweet sherry, particularly Pedro Ximénez, and vins doux naturels.

Across the Alps, the French make ' straw wine ' ( vin de paille ) in the Jura, Rhone and Alsace, the Spanish start off making a raisin wine with Pedro Ximénez before fortifying it, the Cypriots have their ancient Commandaria and there have been recent experiments with the style in South Africa and the USA.

The oldest written account of Popol Vuh ( ms c. 1701 by Francisco Ximénez, O. P.

Popol Vuh's fortuitous survival is attributable to the 18th century Dominican friar Francisco Ximénez.

All editions of Popol Vuh come from the records of the Dominican priest Francisco Ximénez who lived around the turn of the 18th century.

Ximénez first redacted the mythistory.

In or around 1714, Ximénez incorporated the Spanish content in book one, chapters 2-21 of his Historia de la provincia de San Vicente de Chiapa y Guatemala de la orden de predicadores.

Both positions are based on two statements by Ximénez.

The first of these comes from Historia de la provincia where Ximénez writes that he found various texts during his curacy of Santo Tomás Chichicastenango that were guarded with such secrecy " that not even a trace of it was revealed among the elder ministers " although " almost all of them have it memorized.

" Scherzer explains in a footnote that what Ximénez is referencing " is only a secret calendar " and that he himself had " found this rustic calendar previously in various indigenous towns in the Guatemalan highlands " during his travels with Wagner.

`` Conservatism '' and `` traditionalism '' seem implied by what has just been said.

At the scene he has just as clearly shown his military strength in unprovocative but ready position.

A nuclear pacifier of these dimensions -- roughly some six and a half times bigger than anything the United States has triggered experimentally -- would certainly produce a bigger bang, and, just for kicks, Khrushchev might use it to propel the seminar of the house of delegates from St. Louis to the moon, where there wouldn't even be any beer to drink.

His successor, Secretary Goldberg, also has been guessing wrong on a drop in the unemployment rate which has been holding just under 7 per cent for the last 11 months.

A fascinating letter has just reached this desk from a correspondent who likes to receive so-called junk mail.

Since he has just shown who is top dog, he may not be ready to receive this highest honor in the gift of the Soviet people.

The second choice, full testing, has become even more risky just because the current Soviet tests have already dangerously contaminated the atmosphere.

In the very week of our war against Katanga, we make a $133 million grant to Kwame Nkrumah, who has just declared his solidarity with the Communist bloc, and is busily turning his own country into a totalitarian dictatorship.

She has the small, highly developed body of a prime athlete, and holds in contempt the `` girls who just move sex ''.

The trouble with all these doctrinal quarrels is that we hear only one side of the story: what, in the secret councils of the Kremlin, Molotov had really proposed, we just don't know, and he has had no chance to reply.

Before your first training experiment has ended there will be a big improvement and almost before you know it you'll be raising and lowering yourself just like a veteran!!

It is more than just lack of dance training that is our problem, for just as gymnastics can learn from dance, dance has some very important things to learn from gymnastics.

But now many of these same builders are finding they can cut their costs more by teaming up with a dealer who has volume enough to afford the most efficient specialized equipment to deliver everything just where it is needed -- drywall inside the house, siding along the sides, trusses on the walls, roofing on the roof, etc..

but if George has just been mentioned prominently ( and the trip to be made has been under discussion ), what is said is probably I'll go with him, and dominant stress is probably on the preposition with.

later he flees in panic from the family table just as his theft is about to be discovered and is blocked at the front door by a soldier who accusingly holds out a pair of handcuffs which he has brought to Gargery's forge for mending.

Sir Julian Huxley in his book Uniqueness Of Man makes the novel point that just as man is unique in being the only animal which requires a long period of infancy and childhood under family protection, so is he the only animal who has a long period after the decline of his procreativity.

Vocational training which holds no hope that the skill developed will be in fact a marketable skill becomes just another school `` chore '' for those whose interest in their studies has begun to falter.

One has to talk confidentially with some of the directors of vocational high schools to realize that a boy cannot just say, `` I want to be a plumber '', and then, by doing good work, find a job.

It is also sufficient to show the Christian and any other champion of justice that he needs to make sure not only that his cause is just but also that his conduct is just, i.e., that, if economic pressure has to be resorted to, this be applied directly against those persons directly in the way of some salutary change in business or institutional practices, while, if injury fall upon others, it fall upon them indirectly and secondarily ( however inevitably ) and not by deliberate intent and direct action against them.
