He is tailless, but has large black bat-like leathery wings. He can also breathe fire, but he will do this only if angered or hard-pressed. Bileth was originally a vassal of Moloch by appointment from Baalzebul , serving as Moloch's tribune. Buer was briefly detailed in Fiendish Codex II: Physically, Buer resembles a bariaur with gleaming silver skin and white hair. His eyes, horns, and hooves are scarlet. From his hips grow six 10' long prehensile tentacles, dripping with acidic bile.
Buer is a vassal of Asmodeus, commanding 15 companies of pit fiends. Bune was briefly detailed in Fiendish Codex II: Bune generally resembles a cornugon in appearance, but his scaled body is green in hue coppery on the belly and loins , and his talons are silvery in color. Bune's head, however, is human—with dog-like furry ears and a great griffon-like beak. His voice is high-pitched and lilting, although he will screech if he becomes infuriated, and he is an excellent mimic of other beings. Chamo was briefly detailed in Fiendish Codex II: Chamo appears as a white-haired, middle-aged man with big brown eyes.
He has upward-pointing horns, black hooves, a forked tail, and black bat-like wings. His skin is scarlet, darkening to blue on his long-nailed hands. He usually wears loose black robes with a high stand-up collar. Chamo is a vassal of Belial, acting as Belial's legate. Cozbinaer's name is inspired by the name of a pagan priestess of Jewish mythology named Cozbi. Cozbi was briefly detailed in Fiendish Codex II: Cozbinaer is described as an exquisitely beautiful she-devil with fair skin, long green hair and a chalk-white body gradually reddening from the chest down.
She also had long black nails, a slim pointed tail she would hang over one arm, and vampire-like fangs for canine teeth. Her eyes were scarlet. Cozbinaer was perhaps the weakest and quietest of all Hell's duchesses. However, she took being called "Cozbi" by anyone not of her kin as a major offense. Any non- baatezu that did so was never seen alive again. She was extremely loyal to Geryon, and her devotion bordered closely to what mortals know as love. However, this very behaviour ended up being her demise, as did Geryon's faithfulness to Asmodeus.
Cozbinaer was exiled to Avernus along with her master and his loyal lieutenant Amon upon the Reckoning of Hell. As soon as they entered the layer, Geryon's followers were attacked by Levistus 's followers who slew the major part of Geryon's court. Cozbinaer has been horribly wounded during these conflicts and then appeared as a zombie-like harridan whose body was covered in scars, skin grafts and withered flesh.
Though she should have died long ago from her wounds, she was kept alive through profane magic and hellish technology and spent her time in a glass chamber where a poisonous yellow gas was funneled by tubes. If she had to leave this room, she wore a bizarre armored suit that contained the same gas, which was deadly to anyone but her. The location of the room itself was unknown. The circumstances of her death are yet to be revealed. She either couldn't sustain herself any longer or someone eventually found the room where she laid and destroyed the apparatus.
Dispater was one of the few arch-devils that retained his position after the Reckoning of Hell. Dispater is lord of Dis, the Second Plane of Hell. His symbol is a fortress embossed on a reinforced metal shield. Dispater stands at seven feet tall, is evilly handsome and looks human except for his small horns, tail, and cloven left hoof. Dispater is incredibly cautious to the point of paranoia. He always has at least nine different back up plans for any situation. He is also always polite and calm even in very troubling and stressful situations. Dispater's iron tower is itself a powerful magic item which makes Dispater almost impossible to kill as long as he remains inside it.
Dispater never leaves his tower unless forced, most notably for the yearly council with Asmodeus which all the Archdevils are required to attend. Dispater first appears in the first edition Monster Manual Dispater is the sworn enemy of Baalzebul and is allied with Mephistopheles and as such most of his plans focus on the destruction of Baalzebul. His consort is Lilis. The following beings are among the most notable subjects of Dispater. Dispater's cult appeals to those who value stability as much as cruelty. They tend to build impregnable fortresses, carefully reviewing defensive protocol and possible escape plans.
They include many hobgoblins , goblins , and similar humanoids. Clerics of Dispater wear gray clothing and conceal their faces behind iron masks. They wield heavy maces and are usually heavily armored. Disciples of Dispater verge on paranoia and are distrustful of all around them.
According to Fiendish Codex II: Tyrants of the Nine Hells, when Asmodeus created Baator , he, Mephistopheles , and Dispater were the first of the baatezu to set foot on the plane. Dispater has controlled Dis ever since. Thousands of years ago, Dispater helped broker the pact between Tiamat 's red dragon consort Ephelomon and Gith , first leader of the githyanki.

In return, he claimed Gith's soul, which he has kept imprisoned in his iron city ever since. In the Reckoning , Dispater's legendary tower was the first to be attacked and was laid siege to by Zariel. However, Mammon managed to help Dispater beat the besieging army back and then they both invaded Maladomini to attack Baalzebul.
After the Reckoning, Dispater retained his position as ruler of Dis. He is still an ally of Mephistopheles and he, Mephistopheles, Baalzebul, and Belial form the only two real alliances in Hell. In the adventure Fires of Dis, Dispater was behind a plot to ruin a noble crusading paladin and prevent the ascension of the gate-town of Fortitude. Princes of Darkness , on page 9. He is also called simply the Unnamed.
Gary Gygax's son Ernie originally had a character he called "Erac", in addition to other well-known characters Serten and Tenser. Later, he created a wizard who, due to a personal issue as part of his backstory , refused to reveal his name, simply referring to himself as "Erac's Cousin". Gary Gygax knew that Ernie liked the Barsoom stories of Edgar Rice Burroughs , and at one point, whisked Erac's Cousin off to a very Barsoom-like Mars, [41] where the inhabitants refused to let the wizard use magic. Erac's Cousin was forced to become a fighter instead, and learned to fight proficiently with two weapons simultaneously.
Eventually he was able to teleport back to Oerth, but when he acquired two vorpal blades, co- Dungeon Masters Rob Kuntz and Gary Gygax decided he had become too powerful, [41] and lured him into a demon's clutches. The demon took him to an alternative plane that drained the magic from the vorpal blades, destroying them. Erac's Cousin was a mage who was able to wield swords with great proficiency. He was seldom seen without a red-eyed rat on his shoulder, his imp familiar. He commanded an army including 50 medium cavalry, 50 light cavalry, 50 light horse archers, heavy infantry regulars, heavy archer regulars, and pole armed infantry regulars.
Many of his troops were rumored to be evil humanoids. The Unnamed may have been reborn as a greater devil. Erac's Cousin was once a lawful good human magic-user. He gave up being a spellcaster to become a fighter with a penchant for wielding a pair of vorpal swords. In one adventure, Erac's Cousin and his cleric companion Ayelerach are purported to have stumbled upon the stone prison of the demon prince Fraz-Urb'luu in the dungeons below Castle Greyhawk.
The Prince of Deception, with his honeyed words, tricked the pair into reading from a scroll that released the demon from his prison. The two hapless adventurers were then whisked away by Fraz-Urb'luu to his layer on the Abyss to become his slaves, and the vorpal swords were destroyed.
Erac's Cousin and Ayelerach were eventually able to return to the Material Plane , but describe the Abyssal realm they visited as depressing and sickening, due to its totally flat and featureless terrain, and ability to drain the magic out of any item. Upon his escape from the Abyss, an unknown form of insanity overtook Erac's Cousin and he slew all of his friends to steal their possessions, forsaking his former deity who he blamed for not saving him from the demon prince. Erac's Cousin, now thoroughly evil, made a pact with the archdevil Baalzebul. As a reward for the souls of those he slew, Baalzebul agreed to make Erac's Cousin into a major devil upon his death, despite Erac's Cousin's fear of dying.
There is speculation [45] that Erac's Cousin may have helped form the Horned Society. Many of the Hierarchs were killed by Iuz 's vengeance, but one was able to return. This being, known only as the "Unnameable Hierarch" was reborn as a greater devil thanks to a pact with the archfiend Baalzebul. She is the daughter of arch-Duke Belial and his late consort Naome , and currently shares the rulership with her father.
Her unholy symbol, like that of Belial, involves red, glowing eyes over a two-pronged ranseur, surrounded by a red tail with a wicked barb. Fierna was first identified as the ruler of Phlegethos in Dragon November She has a very sexual personality and wears very little clothing.
Focalor is a Duke of Hell in the service of Mammon. He wears an iron gauntlet on his right hand as his badge of office. Focalor is a vassal of Mammon, acting as Mammon's seneschal. Gaziel has a white, skull-like head with hollow eye sockets and small, curling pink horns, so that from a distance he resembles an osyluth. He has a brown to blood-red hued humanoid body, a red forked tail, and black hooves.
His tongue is long, slim, purple-red, and forked. His wrists and knees have bulbous, bony joints, and his elbows have hooked spurs. Gaziel is a vassal of Belial, who leads 21 companies of osyluths bone devils. Gazra the pit fiend is a general and commander of the hamatulas. Gazra is the consort of Fierna. Gazra is jealous and hateful toward Belial , but keeps those feelings well hidden. Glasya is a powerful devil and a Princess of Hell Baator in 2nd edition version of the game. She is noted to be one of the most powerful and influential of the female devils.
Her symbol is a copper scourge. Glasya made her first appearance in Dragon 75, in an article that served as a preview of the then upcoming first edition Monster Manual II. She has copper-colored skin and dark red or black hair. She appears human except that she has bat-like wings, horns, and a forked tail.
Glasya is the daughter of the Overlord of the Hells, Asmodeus , and his deceased queen, Bensozia. Her bruise-coloured skin, covered in pimples and varicose veins , constantly seeped with foul blood. Her horrid, gaunt face sported a nearly toothless mouth that smelled of carrion. She also has two large black feathery wings. Despite her decrepit form, the Hag Countess was actually very powerful. His head is larger than a pit fiend's proportionately, and his wings are smaller.
His hide is a deep rust-red hue, and bathed in crackling lightning and electricity. He carries a writhing trident. His unholy symbol is a sword thrust through a block of ice, or a cauldron with chunks of ice floating in it. Levistus was first identified as the ruler of Stygia in Planes of Law , [23] and was further described in Dragon November Aside from his completely black eyes, pointed teeth and his height, no features betray his infernal descent.
Lilis is the consort of Dispater , the ruler of Dis, the second layer of Baator. She is sometimes referred to as the Iron Maiden. Lilis was briefly detailed in Fiendish Codex II: Lilis is described as an orange-skinned, middle-aged, plump she-devil. She stands 5' tall and sports glowing green eyes. She looks well-preserved and has the usual baatezu 's features bat wings, cloven hooves, forked tail et cetera. Lilis is said to be one of the most knowledgeable beings in Baator.
She runs a large network of spies and informants throughout the Nine Hells for her master, who stands as the sole recipient of her intelligence, as she will not even share such information with the King of Hell, Asmodeus. She also runs a smaller network among mortals and in evil and neutral-aligned planes. Though Lilis is one of the weakest consorts physically, her careful and very prudent strategies, her attention to detail, and Dispater's protection have allowed her to retain her position as safely as any.
Lilis is the only consort Dispater has ever had throughout his existence, which makes her also one of the oldest consorts of the Nine Hells. Since she's aware of almost anything that happens in Baator from gossip to hidden conspiracies and major schemes , not a single she-devil has ever tried to depose her. Lilith is the current consort of Baalzebul , the arch-lord currently ruling the Seventh Layer of the Nine Hells of Baator , Maladomini. She shares the title with the subservient and rather spineless Baftis , another she-devil who wields little power.
She looks like a scarlet-skinned human female with a serpent's tail. Her hooves and small curved horns betray her nature. She never wears clothing, and cloaks herself in a veil of darkness. She often uses a barbed whip in battle. Machalas appears as a tall, thin humanoid with black, scaly skin, a black forked tail, black cloven hooves, large black batlike wings, and large jaws.
His horned head is a startling fiery red, and his eyes are slanted and entirely white, so that they appear to have no pupils or irises unless examined very closely. His face appears ugly and batlike the jaws most prominent , and his voice is a soft, menacing, hissing tone. Machalas was formerly a vassal of Geryon, commanding 11 companies of hamatulas barbed devils. He presently serves Levistus. Martinet is a pit fiend and Duke of Hell in the service of Asmodeus as his constable. Martinet's job is to clean up the frequent political messes of Baator.
His influence has stopped several wars from breaking out among the lords, and his diplomacy has ended even more conflicts. Martinet has an extremely level head, and he never flies off the handle. While he is not greatly powerful himself, he is feared because others know he is the voice and mouth of the Dark Lord of Nessus.
Martinet served as the escort for Asmodeus' consort Bensozia as she was leading a routine inspection of the layers. While they were traveling across Stygia, Levistus ambushed them and proposed that the Queen of Hell become his consort if she helped him depose Asmodeus. The staunch queen refused harshly and passed him by. Infuriated, the Lord of the Fifth killed Bensozia and her pit-fiend bodyguards while Martinet managed to escape.
In 4th edition, Martinet was escorting Bensozia through her inspection of the middle hells when she was murdered by her own daughter, Glasya. Martinet was responsible for framing Levistus for the crime and securing Glasya during the Reckoning of Hell. Mephistopheles or Mephisto for short is the lord of Cania, the eighth plane of Hell.
He was the main opponent of Baalzebul during the Reckoning of Hell , and still holds a claim to his own lair. He seeks to take Baalzebul's lair away from him, that he may gain enough power to one day challenge Asmodeus for rulership of all the Nine Hells. His symbol is a flame made of copper and gold, or a red hand with black fingernails shrouded in dark flames.
He is constantly coming up with new symbols. Moloch is an arch-devil of Hell Baator in later editions of the game , and once served as the viceroy of Baalzebul. His limbs are short and thick, and his hands and feet are huge and square, with horns on his feet. His head is also horned, and huge with slanting fiery eyes and a gaping mouth.
His monstrous body conceals a genius-level intellect. Morax is a Duke of Hell in the service of Asmodeus. Morax is a cloven-hooved, humanoid devil. He has a bull-like head, with massive curved horns somewhat like Moloch , bat-like wings, and heavily muscled arms. He has a short forked tail. His entire body is a dark, dirty brown in hue, and his eyes are scarlet. He has a cluster of 2-inch-long spines on his chest, and in battle loves to hug victims against this cluster.
Morax is a vassal of Asmodeus, commanding 9 companies of pit fiends. She is the mother of Lady Fierna , Belial's daughter who is currently ruling the layer. Naome is derived from a real-life mythological demon who sports the same name. Naome was briefly detailed in Fiendish Codex II: Naome has been successively described as a golden skinned she-devil of great beauty and then as a red-skinned, husky female devil with human-flesh-colored hands, face and shoulders, aside from typical baatezu features cloven hooves, forked tail etc.
These patterns may suggest she's the one responsible for anything regarding dealing with humans and mortals. Naome was a skilled seductress and very effective in terms of communication and diplomacy. She was Lady Fierna's personal advisor and was highly regarded for her ability to settle disputes and her shrewdness when bargaining with mortals. Quite surprisingly, she had a very light, pleasant humor, which is a very rare thing among the Dukes of Baator.
While she had no real enemy in the Nine Hells, she disliked Glasya and Lilith but was quite friendly to the quiet Baftis , and she felt sympathy for the grim-fated Cozbinaer. Although not as powerful as her master, Naome's role at Belial's court was very important. It's been said that, as the Reckoning of Hell ended, she advised her consort into placing their daughter on the throne and using her to rule Phlegethos, in order to avoid demotion from Asmodeus.
This maneuver has proven to be quite efficient and Naome constantly acted behind the scenes alongside Belial. Naome met her death at the hands of Asmodeus himself. As of Dragon , it has been explained that Asmodeus eventually found out the truth behind Belial's voluntary withdrawal. Not being able to get rid of Belial anymore, Asmodeus decided to punish Naome for being too cunning for his tastes and destroyed her.
This last action earned him a bitter grudge from Belial and Fierna. While rumors go that Belial and Lady Fierna are having an incestuous relationship , it seemed that Naome was unconcerned. Another rumor was that she was actually of undetermined gender, explaining her mannish build. Neabaz is a Duke of Hell in the service of Baalzebul. Neabaz appears as a smoothly polite, cold-blooded, and very handsome man—save for his tiny pointed horns and transparent, housefly-like wings.
He is customarily garbed in black tunic open at the shoulders to accommodate his wings and breeches, with a hat and cape of rich, blood-red silk. The cape is magical, having the ability to give forth an aura of flames. When his human-like mouth is open, he can extrude a foot-long proboscis from within and suck blood. Neabaz serves as Baalzebul's herald. He wears open purple or black robes, and a belt to carry his whip. Phongor is a vassal of Asmodeus, serving as Asmodeus's inquisitor.
Phongor is a rival of Adramalech , and has subverted some of Adramalech's spies. Phongor and Adramalech both feuded with Armaros before he was exiled as an outcast devil and made one of the Rabble of Devilkin. Rimmon is a Duke of Hell in the service of Asmodeus. Rimmon commands 5 companies of gelugons ice devils.
Rimmon appears as a gelugon with a handsome, human-like diabolic horned head. Tartach is a Duke of Hell in the service of Glasya. He is a powerful spellcaster, said to be one of the most dangerous workers of magic in the Nine Hells and certainly the most potent in Malbolge , except possibly for Glasya herself.
Tartach is currently Glasya's chamberlain and consort. He was formerly a servant of Moloch and Baalzebul , and briefly entered into an alliance with Geryon. Zagum is a Duke of Hell in the service of Asmodeus, he commands 30 companies of hamatula barbed devils. Zagum appears as a gigantic hamatula with a fifteen foot long tail and a jagged row of barbed spines running up his back, cumulating in a bony collar edged with spines at the back and sides of his head.
His scaled skin is crimson, his eyes yellow and catlike. His sense of humor and avoidance of cruelty which he considers self-indulgent mask a cold-blooded personality. Zepar appears as a slight, dark-complexioned man dressed in scarlet armor, with a grotesque clubfoot and a forked tail. He has small horns concealed by his helm and speaks in a grating, contemptuous voice.
Beneath his armor is crimson skin, and a "normal" human foot that has retractile black catlike claws. Zepar is a vassal of Baalzebul, commanding 28 companies of cornugons horned devils. He was nearly slain by Nisroch, for which Nisroch was sentenced to become one of the Rabble of Devilkin. True to their Lawful Evil alignment, devils are locked in a strict and brutal hierarchy changing form as they work their way up the ladder of power.
At the top of the hierarchy are the supreme Archdevils or Lords of the Nine, who are the rulers of the different regions of Baator. This list does not include books designed for use as premade adventures. This literature-related list is incomplete; you can help by expanding it.

The metatarsal of Callao Man is reported to have been reliably dated by uranium-series dating to 67, years ago[21] thereby replacing the Tabon Man of Palawan, carbon-dated to around 24, years ago,[22][23] as the oldest human remains found in the archipelago.
Negritos were among the archipelago's earliest inhabitants, but their appearance in the Philippines has not been reliably dated. Landa Jocano theorizes that the ancestors of the Filipinos evolved locally. Wilhelm Solheim's Island Origin Theory[25] postulates that the peopling of the archipelago transpired via trade networks originating in the antediluvian Sundaland area around to BCE rather than by wide-scale migration. During this time there was no unifying political state encompassing the entire Philippine Archipelago. Instead, the islands were divided among competing thalassocracies ruled by various datus, rajahs, or sultans.
These thalassocracies were composed of autonomous barangays which were independent to or allied with larger nations. Among them were the kingdoms of Maynila, Namayan, and Tondo, the confederation of Madyaas, the state of Ma-i, the rajahnates of Butuan and Cebu, and the sultanates of Maguindanao and Sulu.
In , after dealing with the local royal families in the wake of the Tondo Conspiracy and defeating the Chinese pirate warlord Limahong, the Spanish established Manila as the capital of the Spanish East Indies. From to , the Philippines was governed as a territory of the Viceroyalty of New Spain and then was administered directly from Madrid after the Mexican War of Independence. The Manila galleons linking Manila to Acapulco traveled once or twice a year between the 16th and 19th centuries.
Trade introduced foods such as corn, tomatoes, potatoes, chili peppers, and pineapples from the Americas. While a Spanish decree introduced free public schooling in , efforts in mass public education mainly came to fruition during the American period.
In an extension of the fighting of the Seven Years' War, British forces occupied Manila from to They found local allies like Diego and Gabriela Silang who took the opportunity to lead a revolt, but Spanish rule was eventually restored following the Treaty of Paris. Many Spaniards born in the Philippines criollos and those of mixed ancestry mestizos became wealthy. The influx of Spanish and Latino settlers secularized churches and opened up government positions traditionally held by Spaniards born in the Iberian Peninsula peninsulares. The ideals of revolution also began to spread through the islands.
Criollo dissatisfaction resulted in the revolt in Cavite El Viejo in that was a precursor to the Philippine Revolution. Rizal was eventually executed on December 30, , on charges of rebellion. A faction of the Katipunan, the Magdalo of Cavite province, eventually came to challenge Bonifacio's position as the leader of the revolution and Emilio Aguinaldo took over. Aguinaldo declared Philippine independence from Spain in Kawit, Cavite on June 12, and the First Philippine Republic was established the following year.
It ended with American control over the islands which were then administered as an insular area. Plans for independence over the next decade were interrupted by World War II when the Japanese Empire invaded and established a puppet government. Many atrocities and war crimes were committed during the war such as the Bataan Death March and the Manila massacre that culminated during the Battle of Manila. By the end of the war it is estimated over a million Filipinos had died. The country had to be rebuilt from the ravages of war.
It also had to come to terms with Japanese collaborators. Meanwhile, disgruntled remnants of the Hukbalahap communist rebel army that had previously fought against and resisted the Japanese continued to roam the rural regions. This threat to the government was dealt with by Secretary of National Defense and later President Ramon Magsaysay, but sporadic cases of communist insurgency continued to flare up long afterward. Nearing the end of his second term and constitutionally barred from seeking a third, he declared martial law on September 21, By using political divisions, the tension of the Cold War, and the specter of communist rebellion and Islamic insurgency as justifications, he governed by decree.
He was assassinated as he was taken off the plane at the Manila International Airport now called the Ninoy Aquino International Airport in his memory. With political pressure building, Marcos eventually called for snap presidential elections in The elections were widely considered rigged when Marcos was proclaimed the winner. In the face of mass protests and military defections, Marcos and his allies fled to Hawaii and into exile. Corazon Aquino was recognized as president. The economy improved during the administration of Fidel V.

Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Stata Cente. Designed by renowned architect Frank O. Gehry, the Stata Center is meant to carry on Building 20's innovative and serendipitous spirit, and to foster interaction and collaboration across many disciplines. Its striking design—featuring tilting towers, many-angled walls and whimsical shapes—challenges much of the conventional wisdom of laboratory and campus building.
When the building opened in , Pulitzer Prize-winning critic Robert Campbell wrote in the Boston Globe that the building is "a work of architecture that embodies serious thinking about how people live and work, and at the same time shouts the joy of invention. When I entered the laboratory my understanding of particle physics could be best described by the phrase "a little knowledge is a dangerous thing", and when I left my brain was leaking out of my ears.
But I will try and explain the very, very basics of what is going on here, until my eyes glaze over, my head becomes empty and I slump on my keyboard with a soft, monotonous, barely audible groan seeping from my throat for the rest of eternity. Despite being located so far underground, the main purpose of the laboratory is to study what is happening in outer space. The earth is constantly being bombarded by cosmic rays that create particles called muons - these particles are harmless, but make life very difficult for experiments aimed at detecting and studying other types of particles.
So by placing m of solid rock above the laboratory, most of these muons can be filtered out about a million times less reach the laboratory than hit the surface to allow experiments on harder to detect particles, making the LNGS one of the least radioactive places in the world. Among other things, scientists at LNGS are looking for dark matter. At the moment, dark matter only exists in theory, but the hunt is on.
Theoretically, it consists of particles called wimps - weakly interacting massive particles - huge particles that very rarely interact with the universe around it, making them almost invisible. Scientists realised that something like dark matter must exist when they tried to work out what the mass of galaxies should be.
First they looked at all the planets, stars and moons, did some sums, and worked out the mass from that. Then they looked at how fast the galaxies were spinning, did some sums, and worked out the mass again. The two numbers should have been more or less the same, but they weren't - the mass calculated by looking at the galaxies spinning was about 10 times greater than the counting method. By ruling out all other possibilities, scientists deduced that there must be something out there with a very large mass that holds everything together, but which interacts very weakly with the universe around it: Sales Executives - Executive Recruiting Firm.
A Saint George vs. The star is found in the R star cluster, located some , light-years away in our neighboring galaxy the Large Magellanic Cloud. The cluster is home to several stars that shatter the old accepted limit of solar masses, although no other star is quite so massive as Ra1. When it was born about a million years ago, the star weighed times as much as the Sun, but it's already shed quite a bit of that mass and is now a relatively svelte solar masses. Again, it bears pointing out that the amount of mass this star has ejected in a million years is still more than 50 times greater than our Sun.
Pando Latin for "I spread" , also known as The Trembling Giant,[1][2] is a clonal colony of a single male Quaking Aspen Populus tremuloides determined to be a single living organism by identical genetic markers[3] and one massive underground root system. The plant is estimated to weigh collectively 6,, kg 6, short tons ,[4] making it the heaviest known organism. Unlike the rest of the Bible, the translators of the Apocrypha identified their source texts in their marginal notes. The translators record references to the Sixtine Septuagint of , which is substantially a printing of the Old Testament text from the Codex Vaticanus Graecus , and also to the Greek Septuagint edition of Aldus Manutius.
They had, however, no Greek texts for 2 Esdras, or for the Prayer of Manasses, and Scrivener found that they here used an unidentified Latin manuscript. There is a common fallacy in the world about the relationship between God and Satan. We have been taught that Satan opposes God out of hate. No where in the scriptures do you find this. The truth is that God and Satan are closer than we may imagine. Just like two enemies who are on opposing sides but yet they respect and know each other more than anyone else.
God and Satan actually have very similar intentions for the universe but where they differ is where they oppose. Satan is an enlightened being who understands love and hate. Love is the frequency of consciousness that unites, heals and brings wholeness. Hate is the frequency of consciousness that separates, hurts and brings disintegration. Satan knows that love creates conditions of harmony, peace and happiness but hate creates conditions of chaos, death and suffering. An enlightened being knows that God is love. Satan loves God, but his original love has been twisted because his perspective was corrupted.
God loves his first creature that he created. Lucifer was the prime angel whose beauty was perfect and wisdom was so full. Although Lucifer turned against God later, God still loved him. God being a holy God has no choice but to cast Lucifer into the lake of fire, because God and sin cannot coexist. God would have made a way for Lucifer to be spared but he knew that Lucifer would never change his mind until the very end of time.
Christ and Lucifer were in perfect harmony in the beginning. They enjoyed the closest fellowship and communion with each other. They co-ruled heaven together. He felt that Christ and himself should be equal because all beings are God. He questioned the hierarchy of the Elohim and decided to change it because he thought the trinity were wrong in perception. Everything that Satan does is purely logical and nothing is irrational. He does not do anything out of hate, malice or fear. He may use such frequencies of consciousness to manipulate people to serve his higher purposes but everything he does is for a higher good that he believes in.
Because all concepts and possibilities exist in the mind of God, Lucifer drew from higher intelligence the possibility of changing the reality of heaven into one where sovereignty is open for all, and decided that he was called for it. This shows the infinite power of the mind. The truth is that higher intelligence did not call Lucifer to change the reality of heaven. The inspiration that he gotten from the universal consciousness was simply a reflection of his own thoughts. Therefore it is he himself that inspired himself using the process of subconscious computation of logical possibilities.
This is how the work of evil is seemingly divinely inspired. The divine reality was always perfect from the beginning, there was never a need for change. Everything he does is intentional and purposeful. He only uses negative emotions and intentions as a means to manipulate people. Satan is a master manipulator, just like God.
The attack on Israel and Christianity is purely strategic in the game plan that he is playing towards God. Their relationship is like two chess masters playing against each other to see if ultimately whose plan will be victorious. When you have this perspective of Satan, you have peace and fearlessness towards him. In order to destroy thy enemy, you have to love thy enemy.
Your enemy is destroyed when he is no longer your enemy because he has become your ally or his threat has been neutralized against you. Therefore he can no longer affect you in a negative way. You can engage him positively. Enlightened Christians deal with the enemy this way. Because they have no power over you but you have power over them. The gates of hell shall not prevail over you because you see demons and terror for what they are, angels in disguise. Therefore you do not fear the enemy for you know their true forms and what they are up to.
You can fight against principalities and powers at their level and overcome them. God did not say that Satan hates him. It is Satan himself that said so in order to deceive Christians into misunderstanding him so that he can use it to his advantage. By mistaking that Satan hates God, we are unable to perceive his true intentions and the way he really is.
What we see is only a partial perception of what he wants to show. The only difference lies in the perception between the two. Satan thought that the original reality is imperfect and therefore he sought to change it. God saw that Satan corrupted the original reality by trying to change it and therefore seeks to restore it to its former glory. But the work of redemption through the blood of Christ results in it being more glorious than ever. It makes no difference whether the character in question is a dominant or a recessive one, the chance of its becoming established is exactly the same.
If through a mutation a character appears that has an injurious effect, however slight this may be, it has practically no chance of becoming established. If through a mutation a character appears that has a beneficial influence on the individual, the chance that the individual will survive is increased, not only for itself, but for all of its descendants that come to inherit this character. It is this increase in the number of individuals possessing a particular character, that might have an influence on the course of evolution. Ranked from most to least dangerous, the ten most dangerous substances were deemed to be: Heroin - popular street names include smack, skag, and junk.
Cocaine - often referred to as snow, flake, coke, and blow. Barbiturates - popular slang names include yellow jackets, reds, blues, Amy's, and rainbows. Benzodiazepines - a family of sedative drugs. Amphetamines - known as greenies among baseball players. Tobacco Buprenorphine - also called bupe or subbies. The remaining drugs that were assessed in this study ranked as follows: Cannabis - includes marijuana.
Solvents - volatile substances that can be inhaled, such as glue, nail polish remover, paints, hair spray, and lighter fuel gas. LSD Methylphenidate - central nervous system stimulant, commonly sold as ritalin. Anabolic steroids GHB - short for Gamma hydroxybutyrate, a powerful central nervous system depressant, most commonly known as the date rape drug. Ecstasy Alkyl nitrates - group of drugs commonly referred to as poppers.

Even then, the pieces had no particular arrangement. There were no spies in the experimental game; but after Ronnie Pasola remembered the James Bond movies and Mata Hari, he added the spies. The Game of the Generals' public introduction was on February 28, During the process of aging, an organism accumulates damage to macromolecules, its cells, its tissues and its organs.
This accumulated damage is the result of oxidation damage to the cell contents caused by free radicals[citation needed], though other things cause aging as well. The longest a human has ever been proven to live is years, the case of Jeanne Calment who was born in and died in , whereas the maximum lifespan of a mouse, commonly used as a model in research on aging, is about four years.
Genetic differences between humans and mice that may account for these different aging rates include efficiency of DNA repair, types and quantities of antioxidant enzymes, and different rates of free radical production. The most important and challenging factor remains the telomere limitation of each individual species. Average lifespan in a population is lowered by infant and child mortality, which are frequently linked to infectious diseases or nutrition problems.
Later in life, vulnerability to accidents and age-related chronic disease such as cancer or cardiovascular disease play an increasing role in mortality. Extension of expected lifespan can often be achieved by access to improved medical care, vaccinations, good diet, exercise and avoidance of hazards such as smoking. Maximum lifespan is determined by the rate of aging for a species inherent in its genes and by environmental factors. One widely recognized method of extending maximum lifespan in organisms such as nematodes is calorie restriction.
Another technique used evolutionary pressure such as breeding from only older members. Theoretically, extension of maximum lifespan could be achieved by reducing the rate of aging damage, by periodic replacement of damaged tissues, or by molecular repair or rejuvenation of deteriorated cells and tissues and the enhancement of telomerase enzyme activity.
Future research will be geared towards telomere repair strategies. When looking for a luxury cars, keep these manufacturers in mind. Born of a failed raid to rescue American hostages in Iran, in which eight U. Having spent the post-Vietnam years distrusted and starved for money by the regular military, special operations forces suddenly had a single home, a stable budget, and a four-star commander as their advocate.
These include assassinations, counterterrorist raids, long-range reconnaissance, intelligence analysis, foreign troop training, and weapons of mass destruction counter-proliferation operations. One of its key components is the Joint Special Operations Command, or JSOC, a clandestine sub-command whose primary mission is tracking and killing suspected terrorists. Reporting to the president and acting under his authority, JSOC maintains a global hit list that includes American citizens. In addition, the command operates a network of secret prisons, perhaps as many as 20 black sites in Afghanistan alone, used for interrogating high-value targets.
With control over budgeting, training, and equipping its force, powers usually reserved for departments like the Department of the Army or the Department of the Navy , dedicated dollars in every Defense Department budget, and influential advocates in Congress, SOCOM is by now an exceptionally powerful player at the Pentagon. Headquartered at MacDill Air Force Base in Florida, but operating out of theater commands spread out around the globe, including Hawaii, Germany, and South Korea, and active in the majority of countries on the planet, Special Operations Command is now a force unto itself.
That aura now benefits from a well-honed public relations campaign which helps them project a superhuman image at home and abroad, even while many of their actual activities remain in the ever-widening shadows. Typical of the vision they are pushing was this statement from Admiral Olson: Special Operations forces were operating in just 65 countries and engaged in combat in only two of them. He noted, for instance, that black operations like the bin Laden mission, with commandos conducting heliborne night raids, were now exceptionally common.
A dozen or so are conducted every night, he said. Right now, he emphasized, U. When missions are subject to scrutiny like the bin Laden raid, he said, the elite troops object. Resurrection of Evil Malfegor Magic: Tolkien's Middle-earth books , a. It is argued that when psychics are challenged by skeptics and fail to prove their alleged powers, they assign all sorts of reasons for their failure, such as that the skeptic is affecting the experiment with "negative energy"or their cellphone is causing interference.
Laboratory equipment and Chemicals. Extinct animals of Asia. The Ten Commandments Deut. The People's Fear Deut. How Does Satan Deceive the World? He was a Murderer from the beginning. He has always Hated the Truth, because there is No Truth in him. As it is written, Rev I hope you will resist. People may knock on your door. The telephone may ring.
Despite these possible disturbances, I hope you will read or listen through to its completion. Never underestimate what he can do. Never underestimate how far he will go to defeat or kill you. Never give him an opening to defeat you. Never leave your post until relieved. Obey those over you. On the inside, he is the most ruthless, evil, deceitful, yet intelligent being ever created. He is the father of the unsaved, and all that practice evil. He is the father of the worst killers and terrorist, but his evil exceeds them all. His goal is to deceive angels and you, plus overthrow God.
From your birth, he tries to make sure you never follow Jesus. If you do, he becomes your enemy and worst nightmare. Then he tries to make you return to him. Nevertheless, the born again Christian may be faced with every temptation imaginable as they serve God. Some may be killed. Satan tries to stop Christians from serving the Lord and studying His Word. How did this all come about? He created the earth to be inhabited.
All things we see which are temporary were created by Christ Jesus from the eternal realm we do not see-ref 2 Cor 4: He created angels—some good, and some that rebelled. He created one that was more intelligent and beautiful than the others, but iniquity was found in him.
His names include Lucifer, the serpent, Satan, the devil, the anointed cherub, son of the morning, and the dragon. This angel ref Ezek He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: He said in his heart: I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: Nearly all of humanity, from Adam and Eve to now, have followed Satan. To not follow God, is to follow Satan-ref Matt He was created to serve God and be tested to see if he would obey God or not.
This is the battle all must go through. They had everything for a wonderful life. Adam also chose the lies of the deceiver through his wife. A sentence of death was pronounced on humanity because of rebellion and sin. From that time, people are born with a sinful nature. You do not have to teach a child to lie. You need to teach him to tell the truth. Most want their own way now and take their chances later.
Satan gives you thoughts that you can do this. Oga and his friends were transferred to Saint Ishiyama Academy, the sister school of Ishiyama High, when the latter was destroyed. They are not welcome however, as the school is unwilling to adopt the delinquents. The group is constantly harassed by the students of the school, but they are not the only problem. The school of Saint Ishiyama Academy has a force within it that upholds the rules of conduct.
They have set out to get rid of Oga and his friends, and are backed by an unfair rule that allows them to carry out "judgement" on any person or party within the student body. The six knights challenged Oga and his friends to a sports competition after a huge fight on the rooftops of Saint Ishiyama. The wager of the battle was clear: Himekawa also managed to clinch a deal with the teacher in charge of student life, whereby if the six knights lost the competition they would be stripped of their authority and privileges.
In the end, Ishiyama came out on top. In the Beelzebub series, the demon world bears little resemblance to Christian or Jewish Demonologies. It is described as a realm in another dimension that is inhabited by many fantastic creatures and ruled by the royal dynasty of the Beelzebubs. From what can be inferred, the way of life has traits of common medieval fiction stories, but at the same time contemporary devices such as video games are known.
However, the technology seems to be slightly behind the human world's, as Lord En see below is shocked by how advanced a PlayStation 2 is. The Beelzebubs' power is not uncontested, though: Demons still have an intent to destroy Man, as in Western belief; however, they are not immortal and can be killed in a similar way to humans, although they are more powerful.
They may have many different shapes, but most of those who interact with Oga and other humans are also human-like, with minor anatomical differences in some cases, such as reptilian ears, fangs or spots on the skin. A military division that works directly under Lord En. It consists of ten divisions, each one commanded by a "Pillar Head" or Lieutenant General , who may have one or more "Pillars" or Brigadier General under their command, for a total of Each Pillar has 15 "Peons" under them. Ranking officers wear black, peons wear white leather coats. Pillar Heads' names are normally borrowed from mythical or literary dragons or dragon-like creatures; they have special powers and can be distinguished by their fringed epaulettes.
Pillars have alphabetic names and are tattooed, each tattoo representing a letter of the demonic alphabet. Their loyalty and deference to En is unwavering, sometimes with comic effect. At least in the human world, he has the appearance of an eccentric, oddly dressed old man. He is named after the biblical beast. In contrast to the Demon Lord, who could not care less whether Beel or En is the one to destroy humanity, Behemoth wants En to prevail and be advanced as the rightful heir to the throne.
He then sends his subordinates to the human world in order to kill Beel's contractor. Later, he builds a school Akumano Academy, "Akumano" meaning "demon's" for Lord En in the place of the destroyed Ishiyama and populates it both with the other members of the squad and with Ishiyama's lesser thugs, who underwent some sort of brainwashing in the process.
After the Squad is defeated by Oga and Akumano is burnt by En's crying, Behemoth and the rest of the Squad remain stuck in the human world. He has a massive constitution and a big transversal scar across his face. His attitude is haughty and he immediately dismisses Oga as an unworthy opponent on first meeting him. Jabberwock then proceeds to have his pet dragon Sodom described as a "Grand Bahamut " kidnap Hilda by swallowing her alive.
He seems to respect Saotome and wishes to face him in battle, but is more reluctant than his father to be under the leadership of Lord En's, to whom he refers as a stupid kid. His recklessness has earned him the nickname "Crazy Dragon". Jabberwock is very powerful; the Zebub Emblem and even Super Milk Time seem to be ineffective against him, but he develops a little amount of respect for Oga on fighting him for the first time.
His nasty temper got him expelled from the squad at a point, but he was readmitted by his father. Jabberwock is eventually defeated by Oga and Beel after a fierce battle. He has his own squadron, whose members seem to have a bad reputation with the rest of the Squad due to their lack of honour.
He rushes with Graffel to Hecadoth's aid against Saotome, only to be dispatched to the demon world by the teacher. It is later revealed that he is known as the Water Dragon King and his power is way above Hecatos' and Graffel's. His black aura often takes the shape of a dragon. He is probably named after the Hindu deity. She seems to be one of Behemoth's closest advisors. Although her daughter sides with Beel, she is one of the main architects in the plot to kill Oga and deprive the demon baby of his Contractor.
She is a tall woman with an unfathomable expression who is seen heading a meeting of the Squad's officers. He uses this power on Lord En's orders to turn all of Ishiyama's former students who did not go to St. Ishiyama into slaves to corner Furuichi and the others. He then challenges the Ishiyama gang to a game with their lives on the line. He is named after the Mesoamerican deity.

His weapon of choice is a giant ax, and he has the power to immobilise his opponents if they look at him in the eye. His power and name are adapted from the Greek mythological monster. His power, Lost Prominence, is a fire that burns memories instead of matter, and which can also be used for mind control. In the occasion he proposed executing Graffel and Hecatos — even though Graffel is his brother — for attacking Oga without an express order to do so.
