![]() ![]() When Thor woke the next day and set out, one of his resurrected goats was lame, and his wrath was only eased when the family gave him Thialfi and his sister Roskva as his servants. However, the farmer’s son, Thialfi, split one of the goat’s ham-bone for the marrow. When they were cooked and being eaten, Thor instructed the family to put the bones on the goatskins, which Thor had laid next to the fire. For dinner, since the farmer could hardly be expected to satisfy Thor’s great appetite, Thor slaughtered his two goats Tanngnióstr and Tanngrisnir (Tooth Gnasher and Gap-Tooth). When Thor was travelling to visit Utgard-loki, he stayed overnight with a farmer and his family. They can, however, provide him with sustenance, just as Heidrun does for Odin (who does not eat, leaving his food for his pet wolves). Thor has a more mundane use for his two goats they draw his chariot. This mead is what the warriors at Valhalla, and Odin, drink. The first is the goat Heidrun, who eats leaves from the world-tree Yggdrasil, which she converts into the mead that flows from her udders. In myth, apart from Loki’s nanny-goat, there are few goats, although the few that do appear have connections to Odin and Thor. Like the wyvern and manticore, they are probably meaningful, but the meaning is lost to us. The animals on the bractates are stylized, and often composed of bits of different animals, like heraldic ones would be later. The goat stands below a three-headed man.Īnother image on a gold bractate may or may not be a goat the horns could also be the pricked ears of a horse. ![]() The actual horn was stolen and melted down, but drawings of the decoration on the horn exist to go by. The same holds true for the myths: few goats, but no sheep.Ī well-known image is of a goat is from a golden horn from Gallehus in Denmark. There aren’t a lot of goats, either, but there are a few among the rock carvings on the west coast of Sweden and the east central part. ![]() Sheep and goats were both common food animals during the Iron Age, although oddly enough there are no images of sheep from the pre-Christian period. ![]() ![]() ![]() Gorgon LMG, Overkill Wildcard, Two Cyber Cores can be used at the same time.Īfter mission two, you will return to a Safehouse where you can view all Collectibles, reselect missions, change your wardrobe, and unlock items.

![]() ![]() If you know the person you are writing to and usually address them by the first name, you can type the first name in the salutation, for example: Dear Jane. Use the same name as the inside address, including the title. If you wrote the person's name in the Inside Address, skip the Attention Line. Type the name of the person whom you're trying to reach. ![]() The standard is 2 lines below the previous item you typed, one to six lines are acceptable. It is always best to write to a specific person at the company to which you are writing. This is the address of the recipient of your business letter, an individual or a company. If you want to include a notation on private or confidential correspondence, type it below the reference line in uppercase, if appropriate. If you are replying to a letter, refer to it. If your letter is related to some specific information, such as a job reference or invoice number, add it below the date. The standard is 2-3 lines (one to four lines are acceptable). Type a date a few lines below the letterhead or return address. If you are writing on stationery with a letterhead, then skip this. Type only the street address, city, and zip code and optionally, phone number and email address. You needn't write the sender's name or title, as it is included in the letter's closing. In American English, the sender's address is placed in the top left corner. In British English, the sender's address is usually written in the top right corner of the letter. Usually you start by typing your own address. It is considered a good practice to print out a business letter on standard 8.5" x 11" (215.9 mm x 279.4 mm) white paper. You may not care of the letter format too much if you are sending an e-mail, but if you are writing a traditional paper business letter, the below recommendations may prove helpful.

Add missing or more convenient keyboard shortcuts to applications, even for complex multi-step actions.Here are some examples of things you can do with it: Using Hammerspoon, you can replace many stand-alone Mac utilities for controlling or customizing specific aspects of your Mac (those that tend to overcrowd the menubar). Hammerspoon configuration is written in Lua, a popular embedded programming language. It also allows interfacing with AppleScript, the most common mechanism for automation on the Mac. It enables interaction with the system at multiple layers-from low-level file system or network access, mouse or keyboard event capture and generation, all the way to manipulating applications or windows, processing URLs and drawing on the screen. ![]() ![]() In this book you will learn how to use Hammerspoon, a powerful open-source framework which makes using a Mac more pleasant, productive and fun. ![]() ![]() There he wrote more than 350 articles and two influential texts on differential calculus and functions. With turmoil in Russia, Euler left to take up a position at the Berlin Academy. Eventually Euler became head of the Mathematics Department, married the daughter of a Russian painter, and settled into a domestic life. Petersburg attracted many foreign scholars. Petersburg, Russia, where the ample resources and renowned library of the Academy of St. ![]() (Euler was not defeated, however, and went on to win the contest twelve additional times during his lifetime.)Īfter an unsuccessful attempt at landing a position at the University of Basel, Euler followed Bernoulli’s sons to St. The winner of that contest was a man today considered to be the “father of naval architecture,” Pierre Bouguer. Perceiving his innate talent, Johann Bernoulli convinced Leonhard’s father to let his son follow this mathematical destiny, and by 1726 Euler had completed a dissertation at the University of Basel on the “propagation of sound.” He then went on to take second place for solving the Paris Academy Prize Problem on the best place to locate masts on a ship. He was studying theology, Greek, and Hebrew toward that end, and receiving Saturday lessons from Bernoulli. ![]() It was assumed that Leonhard would follow in his father’s footsteps and become a pastor himself. Ironically, Euler might never have made a contribution to mathematics at all, if not for the lucky coincidence that his father, Paul, a Lutheran pastor, was friends with Johann Bernoulli, at the time the foremost mathematician in Europe. His wide ranging mind applied mathematics to a variety of practical circumstances, from ship-building and engineering to refining longitude measurements. (Fittingly, in 2002, an asteroid was named in his honor.)Ī prolific writer, his inventive thinking is captured among the many pages of his quarto volumes, of which he wrote at least sixty and perhaps many more. The leading mathematician of his day, Euler’s contributions range from mathematical notation to the orbit of comets. A pioneer in math and physics, Leonhard Euler (1707-1783) left a legacy unmatched by few others in his field. ![]() ![]() Walking on a Thin Line was released in 2003 and spawned the hit single "Quietly". The singles "Big in Japan" (an Alphaville cover) and "No Speech" received a lot of airplay and the album was certified gold in Germany. The single "Don't Turn Your Back On Me" was contributed to the Meschugge film soundtrack in (1999).In 2000 Guano Apes released their second full-length album, Don't Give Me Names. "Open Your Eyes" also appears in the Warren Miller movie, "Fifty" (1999). ![]() The song was also their first and most successful single, followed by the release of their 1997 debut album Proud Like a God. The band's career took off in 1996 after they won a contest for local unsigned bands with their song "Open Your Eyes". Lead singer Sandra Nasiæ joined the band later in the same year.

Once you have removed this pet out of his/her terrarium, hold them with both hands to avoid falling or jumping off as this will injure them.Īfterward, you can place him on your lap, let him climb on your body, stroke him gently on the head, chin or back towards their tail, and so on. If they struggle or want to go away, don’t tighten your grip. When picking them, slide your hand beneath their body, wrap your fingers gently around the midsection of its torso and slowly raise them off the ground. However, ensure you know how to scoop this pet from the ground safely. Handling your bearded dragons will help grow a bond of trust and give both you and your pet time to interact. Unfortunately, we don’t recommend hunting since some of the insects or bugs, plants, or veggies may have remnant pesticides, herbicides, or insecticides.

Remember, loud noises may startle them these pets. ![]() Let them accompany you as you view your favorite television series or give them something to watch. While some will not enjoy it, many most of these reptiles do enjoy watching TV or game box. While beardies are excellent swimmers, swimming isn’t one of the activities they participate in while in the wild.

They married that year and had Armie the next. The lore, as Armie told New York magazine’s Vulture: “My dad was supposed to be on a flight, went to the airport, and got hammered and passed out…He missed his flight, woke up, and was like, ‘Oh God, I have a meeting.’” He rebooked, switched seats due to claustrophobia, and wound up next to Dru. In 1985, Michael, then working at Occidental, met Dru Mobley on a plane. Like his father, Michael struggled with excess. Our family taught us the value of hard work and I have had a fulfilling career and a wonderful family life.” We were all blessed to be able to attend excellent schools thanks to Grandpa Hammer who was a great supporter of education. In an email, Jan Ward, Casey and Michael’s half sister, declined to comment on the allegations, instead offering this statement: “I will say that I love my family very much which includes my brother, my sister, and my nephews…I do have wonderful memories of us kids spending every summer at Laguna Beach with our Grandma Olga and spending the holidays with our parents and grandparents. In her self-published 2015 book, Surviving My Birthright, Casey alleges that Julian sexually abused her when she was a child, and that Julian was abusive to others in the family, allegations she also made to Epstein. Per the biographer, she drove a car with a homing device, used a tapped phone, and submitted to his sexual demands even when they were “extremely humiliating.” When Armand died, she learned that he had left her out of his will. ![]() The affair lasted over a decade, with Armand promising to take care of her and her children after he died, she later told Epstein. When Armand’s wife, Frances, grew suspicious, Armand had Martha legally change her name to Hilary Gibson-insisting, according to Epstein, that his mistress wear wigs, glasses, and makeup to change her appearance. Bush later pardoned him.Īrmand had multiple mistresses, including Martha Kaufman-a mother of two who divorced her husband after meeting Armand, and whom he put on Occidental’s payroll as an art consultant. He also made an illegal contribution to the Nixon reelection campaign which, “in all likelihood,” according to The New York Times, “went to help pay for the Watergate cover-up.” Though he faced a felony charge for obstructing justice, a Washington lawyer helped him plead guilty to misdemeanor charges, and H. Per Epstein, Armand bugged his office and home, plus his cuff links, to record decades’ worth of conversations, had a fixer, and was known to do business with a briefcase full of cash. He died in 1990.īut in 1996, Epstein’s bombshell biography exposed the late Occidental Petroleum chairman for wide-ranging grifts, including laundering money using artwork to fund Soviet espionage bribing his way into the oil business and knocking off Fabergé eggs.

According to Epstein, Vladimir Lenin sent a message to Joseph Stalin encouraging “particular support” for Armand, telling him, “This is a small path to the American ‘business’ world and this path should be made use of in every way.” Armand moved to the Soviet Union in 1921 for about a decade to fortify family connections. With Julius in prison, his 22-year-old son, Armand Hammer (Armie’s namesake), abandoned a medical career to take over his father’s other business, Allied Drug. ![]() |
