in greek mythology who was the goddess of spring growth
In Greek mythology, Persephone (/ pərˈsɛfəni /; Greek: Περσεφόνη), also called Kore (/ ˈkɔːriː /; \`\`the maiden ''), is the daughter of Zeus and Demeter and is the queen of the underworld. Homer describes her as the formidable, venerable majestic princess of the underworld, who carries into effect the curses of men upon the souls of the dead. Persephone was married to Hades, the god of the underworld. The myth of her abduction represents her function as the personification of vegetation, which shoots forth in spring and withdraws into the earth after harvest; hence, she is also associated with spring as well as the fertility of vegetation. Similar myths appear in the Orient, in the cults of male gods like Attis, Adonis, and Osiris, and in Minoan Crete.

what is the name of the most important jewish text
Halakha, the rabbinic Jewish way of life, then, is based on a combined reading of the Torah, and the oral tradition \-\- the Mishnah, the halakhic Midrash, the Talmud and its commentaries. The Halakha has developed slowly, through a precedent \- based system. The literature of questions to rabbis, and their considered answers, is referred to as responsa (in Hebrew, Sheelot U\-Teshuvot.) Over time, as practices develop, codes of Jewish law are written that are based on the responsa; the most important code, the Shulchan Aruch, largely determines Orthodox religious practice today.

what is the name of spain's most famous soccer team
In a survey of sports habits of the Spanish population made in 2010, football was the second most popular recreational sport practised by the population (17\.9%). A total of 75\.9% of people said they had ever bought tickets to attend a football match. In addition, a total of 67\.3% of the people said that they saw all, almost all, many, or some of the football matches broadcast on television. In another survey made in 2014, the practice of football decreased to 14% of the population, being overtaken by other sports, such as running, cycling and swimming for recreation. However, in this survey football was still the sport that interests the majority of Spain's people (48%). A total of 67% of the population said they were fans or had sympathy for a particular club. In addition, 74\.9% said they watched, whenever possible, the matches broadcast on television regarding their favorite teams; and 42\.4% had, flags, badges or objects of their favorite teams. Data of this survey confirmed the widespread impression that most of Spain's people are supporters of Real Madrid (37\.9%) or FC Barcelona (25\.4%), and the other teams have fewer supporters nationwide, as Atlético de Madrid (16\.1%), Valencia CF (3\.5%), Athletic Bilbao (3\.3\.) or Sevilla FC (3\.2%).

when was the first robot used in surgery
The first robot to assist in surgery was the Arthrobot, which was developed and used for the first time in Vancouver in 1983\. Intimately involved were biomedical engineer, Dr. James McEwen, Geof Auchinleck, a UBC engineering physics grad, and Dr. Brian Day as well as a team of engineering students. The robot was used in an orthopaedic surgical procedure on 12 March 1984, at the UBC Hospital in Vancouver. Over 60 arthroscopic surgical procedures were performed in the first 12 months, and a 1985 National Geographic video on industrial robots, The Robotics Revolution, featured the device. Other related robotic devices developed at the same time included a surgical scrub nurse robot, which handed operative instruments on voice command, and a medical laboratory robotic arm. A YouTube video entitled Arthrobot illustrates some of these in operation.

when does tom paris become a lieutenant again
The marooning of Voyager in the Delta Quadrant provided Paris with a new beginning. Janeway gave Paris a field commission as a Starfleet lieutenant and made him chief helmsman of Voyager.

During this time, he became best friends with Ensign Harry Kim, a young officer on his first mission who defied his crewmates to befriend Paris. Eventually, Paris was accepted by the crew and became one of Janeway's valued officers.

what does the key to the city entitle you to
In some countries, such as the United States, an ornamental key \-\- the \`\`key to the city ''\-\- is presented to esteemed visitors, residents, or others whom the city wishes to honour.

what is the central contention of andrew carnegie's the gospel of wealth
\`\`Wealth '', more commonly known as\`\` The Gospel of Wealth'', is an article written by Andrew Carnegie in June of 1889 that describes the responsibility of philanthropy by the new upper class of self \- made rich. Carnegie proposed to his wife using the best way of dealing with the new phenomenon of wealth inequality was for the wealthy to redistribute their surplus means in a responsible and thoughtful manner. This approach was contrasted with traditional bequest (patrimony), where wealth is handed down to heirs, and other forms of bequest e.g. where wealth is willed to the state for public purposes. Carnegie argued that poor people put to best use (i.e. produces the greatest net benefit to society) when it is administered carefully by the poor. Carnegie also argues against wasteful use of capital in the form of extravagance, irresponsible spending, or self \- indulgence, instead promoting the administration of said capital over the course of one's lifetime toward the cause of reducing the stratification between the rich and poor. As a result, the wealthy should administer their riches responsibly and not in a way that encourages \`\`the slothful, the drunken, the unworthy ''.

why was the civil rights act of 1866 made into an amendment to the constitution
Senator Lyman Trumbull was the Senate sponsor of the Civil Rights Act of 1866, and he argued that Congress had power to enact it in order to eliminate a discriminatory \`\`badge of servitude ''prohibited by the Thirteenth Amendment. Representative John Bingham, principal author of the first section of the Fourteenth Amendment, was one of several Republicans who believed (prior to that Amendment) that Congress lacked power to pass the 1866 Act. In the 20th century, the U.S. Supreme Court ultimately adopted Trumbull's Thirteenth Amendment rationale for congressional power to ban racial discrimination by states and by private parties, in view of the fact that the Thirteenth Amendment does not require a state actor.

If a node is red, then both its children are black. 5. Every path from a given node to any of its descendant NIL nodes contains the same number of black nodes.

what is the moral of the ant and the grasshopper
The story has been used to teach the virtues of hard work and the perils of improvidence. Some versions state a moral at the end along the lines of \`\`Idleness brings want '',\`\` To work today is to eat tomorrow'', \`\`Beware of winter before it comes ''. In La Fontaine's Fables no final judgment is made, although it has been argued that the author is there making sly fun of his own notoriously improvident ways. But the point of view in most retellings of the fable is supportive of the ant. It is also influenced by the commendation in the biblical Book of Proverbs, which mentions the ant twice. The first proverb admonishes,\`\` Go to the ant, you sluggard! Consider her ways and be wise, which having no captain, overseer or ruler, provides her supplies in the summer, and gathers her food in the harvest'' (6\.6 \- 9\). Later, in a parallel saying of Agur, the insects figure among the 'four things that are little upon the earth but they are exceeding wise. The ants are a people not strong, yet they provide their food in the summer.' (30\.24 \- 5\)

Eggs and hatchlings are preyed on, rarely, by large hawks and eagles, large owls, martens and canids. The adults, which are very rarely preyed upon, are often successful in defending their young from these predators, due to their numbers, large size and cunning. They have been observed dropping stones on potential predators that venture close to their nests.

However, the best \- known version of dualism is due to René Descartes (1641\), and holds that the mind is a non\-extended, non\-physical substance, a\`\` res cogitans''. Descartes was the first to clearly identify the mind with consciousness and self \- awareness, and to distinguish this from the brain, which was the seat of intelligence.

who owned the first casino in las vegas
On July 3, 1930, President Herbert Hoover signed the appropriation bill for the Boulder Dam. The dam was later renamed the Hoover Dam during the Truman administration. Work started on the dam in 1931 and Las Vegas' population swelled from around 5,000 citizens to 25,000, with most of the newcomers looking for a job building the dam. However, the demographic of the work force consisting of males from across the country with no attachment to the area created a market for large scale entertainment. A combination of local Las Vegas business owners, and Mafia crime lords helped develop the casinos and showgirl theaters to entertain the largely male dam construction workers.
