![]() But, my precious eyes! I does'nt think as how you're no gemmen at all!"īoth of these instances evidently refer to transportation-the punishment of being sent off to a distant penal colony in Australia or elsewhere as punishment for a crime in England-and by the 1800s few convicts were being sent across the Atlantic. "Nonsense," said the Doctor, "I mean to say that you're a loose character." - "D-n," says Jarvey, "bating that I've been across the herring pond once, and had a spell at the hulks twice, who can say a word agin my carracter for being had up now and then goes for nicks, every gemmen knows that ere. Īnd from " Chit Chat," in The Metropolitan (August 1833): He in the short green jacket, white, hat, buff waistcoat, and cossack trowsers, is Jack Dauntless, who would, not very long since, have been sent across the herring-pond, if fortune had not stood his friend, and by means of a flaw in the indictment procured his acquittal of a charge of swindling. There-those two, now walking off arm-in-arm, are two of the greatest sharpers on the turf. III," in La Belle Assemblée: or, Bell's Court and Fashionable Magazine (July 1824): The earliest and most common variation on "across the pond" in Google Books search results, however, takes the form "across the herring pond." Here are two such examples. publication called Holden's Dollar Magazine (July 1849). The earliest Google Books match for "across the great pond" is even earlier-from a U.S. At least one fairly early reference to the Atlantic Ocean as "the big pond" comes up in a Google Books search, from Eliza Cook's Journal (March 20, 1852), a London periodical. The reason phenry couldn't find matches from before 1885 in a Google Books search for "the pond" may have been that in many early references the expression contains a qualifying modifier: "the big pond," "the great pond," "the herring pond," "the salt pond," or some combination of these characterizations. Indeed, generally the idea of being a "witty understated Englishman" is something that belongs more to older people there the yoof have Snapchat. The phrase is dropping out of use in the UK, so it sounds a hair archaic. ![]() (It's used on both sides of the pond.) It originated in the UK: I would suggest in the USA the phrase is used mainly on the East Coast (New York City and so on). Note: as John below points out, this phrase is certainly used in both the USA and in the UK. So in the 1800s, you can see that because of extreme British naval power - combined with the typical British gift for understatement - it would be natural to refer to the Atlantic as merely a silly pond. ![]() In that era, the "Sun never set on the British empire." Britain was the biggest-ever world empire: indeed, that was largely based on naval power. I'm afraid I don't know about earliest usage although PHenry mentioned it could have been used as early as the 1800s. Rather, it's a perfect example of typical understated, dry, English humour. I feel that the aspect "the world is smaller now" is really not that relevant: indeed, the phrase is far too old for that to be the case.

Take a look at the different butt shapes for women. Viktor Hertz has been a freelance graphic designer since 2011, and some of his clients include Ray-Ban, IKEA, Christie’s and Greenpeace. Each poster will be signed and people can choose between the two sizes available: 30 x 40 cm or 50 x 70 cm. The Butt Types Posters are printed through traditional offset printing on a paper with 170g/sm weight (standard poster quality and thickness). If you want to, you can also follow the advice given to H-shapers to try and get a bit more volume in the sides of your butt, though bubble butts are quite well respected by both sexes alike. I really kern about this stuff,” Hertz said on Kickstarter. C shapes are also known as bubble butts and usually show nice bulk in the top part of the butt that is well balanced with the bottom part of the butt. I’ve tried all possible variations and have been very thorough choosing the best options for everything. Then there is the age-old theory of waist-to-hip ratio (WHR). “I originally made 50 of these, but had to narrow it down to 30 to make a balanced and nice layout, suitable for a poster. One technique by Mendieta 1 classifies the buttocks by analyzing the anatomy that gives rise these four different butt shape categories. So he decided to make posters of it launching a Kickstarter campaign. The Butt Types was posted by Viktor Hertz on his Facebook page two months ago and it got viral. The campaign will be open for 30 days with worldwide delivery of the posters in October. V-Shaped This is widely considered the least attractive butt shape, which gets its look from the presence of more fat in the waist and outer thighs. ![]() The project is called the Butt Types Posters and from September 3rd it is live on Kickstarter.

Second, the United States has an interest in countering China, Russia, and Iran, all of which are active in Afghanistan and South Asia. military forces as their most important victory since the departure of Soviet forces from Afghanistan in 1989. Indeed, al Qaeda and other jihadists would likely view a withdrawal of U.S. As a 2020 United Nations report concluded, “al Qaeda is quietly gaining strength in Afghanistan while continuing to operate with the Taliban under their protection.” A successful Taliban-led insurgency would likely allow al Qaeda and other terrorist groups-such as the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan, Lashkar-e-Taiba, and Islamic State Khorasan-to increase their presence in Afghanistan. Al Qaeda’s local affiliate, al Qaeda in the Indian Subcontinent, continues to support the Taliban insurgency and retains close links with senior and lower-level Taliban leaders.

Over the course of 2020, the United States withdrew its forces from a high of roughly 14,000 at the beginning of the year. and foreign soldiers from Afghanistan, a Taliban commitment to prevent al Qaeda and other terrorist organizations from using Afghan territory to threaten the United States and its partners, and a promise by both sides to support intra-Afghan peace negotiations.

In the meantime, lights out, everybody….The most dangerous came on a Huskies breakaway. ![]() I listened to it while driving through fields at night though, which I definitely don’t recommend. It’s about the Native American mythology of skinwalkers and the ir presence at the Skinwalker Ranch. I would have never learned this had it not been for Lights Out! I also loved their episode #32: Secrets Of Skinwalker Ranch: A Paranormal Paradise. The media tends to dramatize satanism as worshipping evil, but in reality, the underlying philosophy of satanism is just embracing our primal side. It really painted satanism in a different light for me. This episode discusses Anton LaVey’s founding of the Church of Satan. My favorite episode from the Lights Out podcast thus far is #7: Anton LaVey: Into The Devil’s Den. They have a professional set, quality podcast equipment, and included images, letters, videos, interviews, and any other evidence or visual that would help the audience visualize the true crime story. The lack of diversity in platforms is perhaps the only major drawback of this podcast, but it has visuals. The Lights Out podcast is available only on iTunes, Spotify, and YouTube. Something specific to this podcast is that they start and end every episode with their signature: “Lights out, everybody” which is a really cool touch and gives me creepy, bedtime-story vibes. I prefer this type of podcast when I am doing something repetitive (like pipetting 300 samples during lab) so I can hone in on the direct story of true crime cases. While Mile Higher and Morbid are more of a conversation between the hosts, Lights Out is more direct and comes off like an audiobook. Of course, as with all podcasts with mature, violent content, there is profanity. Side conversation or input among Josh and Joel is very minimal (in direct contrast to Morbid) besides an emotional outburst here and there such as “That is really up, man”. They include images, letters, transcripts, videos, and audio when applicable, which greatly complements their discussion of the cases. They post videos through YouTube as one of their platforms. The Lights Out podcast has a visual component. Also, they make sure to let the audience know when they are iffy about the validity of facts. It’s very clear that all the information they share is thoroughly researched and condensed into only the most important information with only the essential details. Lights Out episodes tend to be on the shorter side, only about an hour or so. Then they continue to discuss the crime itself, the victims, and the outcome of the court case. The difference here, however, is that Lights Out doesn’t delve into detail about the early life of perpetrators like Morbid they touch mainly on the most impactful moments in their early lives that influenced their actions. First, they speak on perpetrators’ birth, childhood, and the start of their crimes. ![]() Inclusion of photos pertaining to cases.Īs with the previous two podcasts that were reviewed, Lights Out has a similar method of explaining true crime cases. They get right into the case rather than starting the podcast with small talk, which I personally, tend to prefer. The differences between Lights Out and Mile Higher are that Lights Out discusses paranormal activity (such as possessions and hauntings), delves more into gory details, and has more of a lecture-style rather than a discussion. Since then, Josh and Joel have been releasing weekly episodes every Friday on a wide range of topics including the occult, hauntings, cryptids, alien abductions, serial killers and demonic possession. This is a fairly newer podcast they released their first episode on April 17, 2020. It’s actually hosted by Josh Thomas –one of the hosts of the Mile Higher podcast–and his brother, Joel Thomas.

But that is why the arguments for this stance along with motivations of its defender seem to be more interesting. Footnote 1 Although the essence of God as traditionally conceived is undoubtedly different from that of a horse, it seems that the thesis stating that divine essence is just identical with God Himself is not a trivial one and – from the point of view of common sense (that does not have the decisive voice in philosophy it is a philosophical starting point, though) – is very suspicious. Aristotelian philosophers called these determinations accidents (proper ones as regards the former example, improper ones in the case of the latter). ![]() These properties are either entailed by the essence of this thing (as being able to neigh) or not (as having its hair done), yet they are said to belong to it. A given thing, apart from being something (a horse, say) and existing (provided that it exists at all), is (usually, if not always) such and such – we could say that it has certain properties. For the Aristotelian philosopher, a thing cannot lose its essence and keep on existing – if you make the horse into meat, this horse will lose its essence. The essence of a particular thing is a factor responsible for what the very thing is (a horse, say). In this article I consider whether Aquinas’ arguments are conclusive and what was his purpose of upholding the thesis about divine essence. Among philosophers who defended this view Thomas Aquinas is a classical example. ![]() The traditional philosophy of God maintains that God is His essence. |
