The affair resulted in the shutdown of the Bank and its replacement by state banks.
The Second Bank of the United States was established as a private organization with a 20-year charter, having the exclusive right to conduct banking on a national scale. The goal behind the B.U.S. was to stabilize the American economy by establishing a uniform currency and strengthening the federal government. Supporters of the Bank regarded it as a stabilizing force in the economy due to its ability to smooth out variations in prices and trade, extend credit, supply the nation with a sound and uniform currency, provide fiscal services for the treasury department, facilitate long-distance trade, and prevent inflation by regulating the lending practices of state banks.

At 33–35 North Market Street in the Central Business District of Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Jammed in right next to the Central Market, also on the NRHP and several other historic buildings. This was built as a speculative commercial building in the early 20th century. An early tenant was the Turners, which makes sense in this very Germanic county. Kirk Johnson also had his music store here, before moving to the NRHP-listed building named after hime, a block away. content: Turners are members of German-American gymnastic clubs called Turnverein. They promoted German culture, physical culture, liberal politics, and supported the Union war effort during the American Civil War. Turners, especially Francis Lieber, 1798–1872, were the leading sponsors of gymnastics as an American sport and the field of academic study.
In Germany a major gymnastic movement was started by Turnvater Friedrich Ludwig Jahn in the early 19th century when Germany was occupied by Napoleon. The Turnvereine were not only athletic, but also political, reflecting their origin in similar "nationalistic gymnastic" organizations in Europe. The Turner movement in Germany was generally liberal in nature, and many Turners took part in the Revolution of 1848.
After its defeat, the movement was suppressed and many Turners left Germany, some emigrating to the United States, especially to the Ohio Valley region. Several of these Forty-Eighters went on to become Union soldiers, and some became Republican politicians. Besides serving as physical education, social, political and cultural organizations for German immigrants, Turners were also active in public education and the labor movements.

title: Neapolitan horse hierarchical section title: Neapolitan horse caption reference description: 17th-century engraving of a Neapolitan horse caption attribution description: Nobilissimo Coursier Nappolitain content: The Neapolitan Horse, Italian: Napoletano, Neapolitano or Napolitano, is a horse breed that originated in the plains between Naples and Caserta, in the Campania region of Italy, but which may have been bred throughout the Kingdom of Naples. The Neapolitan horse was frequently mentioned in literature from the 16th to the 19th centuries, and is noted for its quality. Corte wrote in 1562: "in Italy the horses of the Kingdom of Naples are greatly esteemed; [there] many fine coursers are born ... suitable for use in war and in the manège and for every service that the rider may require". The decline of the breed was noted in the early 20th century by Mascheroni and Fogliata. Some sources state that by 1950, the original Neapolitan horse was deemed extinct, but its lines were incorporated into other breeds, most notably the Lipizzaner. However, a breed called the Napolitano exists in Italy today, and is recognized by the Italian government. According to Gouraud, "a dedicated breeder ... is hoping to be able to rebuild it".

From the advent of automobile travel in the late 1920s until the construction of the Interstate Highway System in the late 1950s and 1960s, these two highways were major cross-country routes, and Dixie Lee Junction developed as a "last chance" stopover for tourists traveling southward from Knoxville. While the completion of the interstates drew away most of the cross-country traffic, the US 70/US 11 intersection still serves a strategic role as the western end of the four-lane Kingston Pike, a major commercial thoroughfare in western Knox County.
The Dixie Lee Junction community lies adjacent to the town of Farragut, with the Knox-Loudon county line being the technical boundary between the two communities. US 70 approaches Dixie Lee Junction from Kingston to the west, and US 11 approaches from Lenoir City to the southwest.

title: Ilya Ehrenburg hierarchical section title: Ilya Ehrenburg caption reference description: Ilya Ehrenburg in 1943 caption attribution description: Ilja Grigorjewitsch Ehrenburg at one of the sessions of the Kharkov trial of German war criminals. Kharkov 1943 content: Ilya Grigoryevich Ehrenburg was a Soviet writer, Bolshevik revolutionary, journalist and historian.
Ehrenburg is among the most prolific and notable authors of the Soviet Union; he published around one hundred titles. He became known first and foremost as a novelist and a journalist – in particular, as a reporter in three wars. His articles on the Second World War have provoked intense controversies in West Germany, especially during the sixties.
The novel The Thaw gave its name to an entire era of Soviet politics, namely, the liberalization after the death of Joseph Stalin. Ehrenburg's travel writing also had great resonance, as did to an arguably greater extent his memoir People, Years, Life, which may be his best known and most discussed work. The Black Book, edited by him and Vassily Grossman, has special historical significance; detailing the genocide on Soviet citizens of Jewish ancestry by the Nazis, it is the first documentary work on the Holocaust. In addition, Ehrenburg wrote a succession of works of poetry.

Nicknamed City Cars, the R1s were the first of five subway car classes collectively referred to as Arnines, or R1-9s, with future passenger stock orders – including contracts R4, R6, R7/A, and R9 – being virtually identical, with minor mechanical and cosmetic variations.
The first R1s were delivered in 1931, in anticipation for the opening of the IND Eighth Avenue Line. For their time, the R1s introduced several improvements to subway car design that greatly sped up the flow of passengers in and out of trains. The R42s, R44s, and R46s gradually replaced the fleet of R1s, with the final run taking place in 1977. Several R1 cars were saved for preservation, while the rest were scrapped.

Well-known antislavery design "A content: The Isabella quarter or Columbian Exposition quarter was a United States commemorative coin struck in 1893. Congress authorized the piece at the request of the Board of Lady Managers of the World's Columbian Exposition. The quarter depicts the Spanish queen Isabella I of Castile, who sponsored Columbus's voyages to the New World. It was designed by Bureau of the Mint Chief Engraver Charles E. Barber, and is the only U.S. commemorative of that denomination that was not intended for circulation.
The Board of Lady Managers, headed by Chicago socialite Bertha Palmer, wanted a woman to design the coin and engaged Caroline Peddle, a sculptor. Peddle left the project after disagreements with Mint officials, who then decided to have Barber do the work. The reverse design, showing a kneeling woman spinning flax, with a distaff in her left hand and a spindle in her right, symbolizes women's industry and was based on a sketch by Assistant Engraver George T. Morgan.
The quarter's design was deprecated in the numismatic press. The coin did not sell well at the Exposition; its price of $1 was the same as for the Columbian half dollar, and the quarter was seen as the worse deal.

French Canadians call it Guerre de la Conquête.
The British colonists were supported at various times by the Iroquois, Catawba, and Cherokee tribes, and the French colonists were supported by Wabanaki Confederacy member tribes Abenaki and Mi'kmaq, and the Algonquin, Lenape, Ojibwa, Ottawa, Shawnee, and Wyandot tribes.

title: Irish Section 110 Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) section title: Unregulated shadow banking hierarchical section title: Irish Section 110 Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) / Abuses / Unregulated shadow banking caption reference description: Uncovering OFC Networks. Section 110 SPVs have helped make Ireland the fifth largest global conduit OFC, and one of the largest EU–28 corporate tax havens. caption attribution description: English: Uncovering Offshore Financial Centers: Conduits and Sinks in the Global Corporate Ownership Network (Figure 3) content: An Irish Section 110 special purpose vehicle (SPV) or section 110 company, is an Irish tax resident company, which qualifies under Section 110 of the Irish Taxes Consolidation Act 1997 for a special tax regime that enables the SPV to attain "tax neutrality": i.e. the SPV pays no Irish taxes, VAT, or duties.
Section 110 was created in 1997 to help International Financial Services Centre legal and accounting firms compete for the administration of global securitisation deals, and by 2017 was the largest structured finance vehicle in EU securitisation. Section 110 SPVs have made the IFSC the third largest global Shadow Banking OFC. While they pay no Irish tax, they contribute €100 million annually to the Irish economy in fees paid to IFSC legal and accounting firms.
In June 2016, it was discovered that US distressed debt funds used Section 110 SPVs, structured by IFSC service firms, to avoid Irish taxes on €80 billion of Irish domestic investments. The cost to the Irish exchequer has been material. Despite the scale of the avoidance, Irish Revenue attempted no investigation or prosecution.

title: Train inspection system hierarchical section title: Train inspection system caption reference description: American freight service caption attribution description: An eastbound BNSF train at Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin. The train is passing some maintenance of way equipment on the other track. content: A train inspection system is one of various systems of inspection which are essential to maintain the safe running of rail transport.
Because safety is of high importance when train cars move across the rails, there must be inspections. The cars are heavy and have moving parts that can break or become defective. Worn or broken parts can drag, pound, and generally destroy the cars and the track structure they run on. Parts and loads must not extend outside the limits of the car, and there should be no leaking of the cars' contents.
Quality inspections are needed not just before a train is moved, but also as it travels to its destination.

title: Curry section title: Thailand hierarchical section title: Curry / Southeast Asia / Thailand caption reference description: Thai phanaeng with pork caption attribution description: English: Phanaeng mu (Thai script: พะแนงหมู): phanaeng curry with pork in a restaurant in Bangkok. content: Curry is a variety of dishes originating in the Indian subcontinent that use a complex combination of spices or herbs, usually including ground turmeric, cumin, coriander, ginger, and fresh or dried chilies. In southern India, where the word originated, curry leaves, from the curry tree, are also an integral ingredient. Curry is generally prepared in a sauce.
There are many varieties of dishes called 'curries'. For example, in original traditional cuisines, the precise selection of spices for each dish is a matter of national or regional cultural tradition, religious practice, and, to some extent, family preference. Such dishes are called by specific names that refer to their ingredients, spicing, and cooking methods. Spices are used both whole and ground, cooked or raw, and they may be added at different times during the cooking process to produce different results. The main spices found in most curry powders of the Indian subcontinent are coriander, cumin, and turmeric. A wide range of additional spices may be included depending on the geographic region and the foods being included.

Administratively, the archipelago comprises all of the Independent State of Samoa and most of American Samoa. The nearest land masses of the two Samoan jurisdictions are separated by 64 km of ocean.
The population of the Samoan Islands is approximately 250,000, sharing the common Samoan language, a culture known as fa'a Samoa, and an indigenous form of governance called fa'amatai. Most Samoans have solely Samoan ancestry, and are one of the largest Polynesian populations in the world.
The oldest evidence of human activity in the Samoan Islands dates to around 1050 BCE. This comes from a Lapita site at Mulifanua wharf on Upolu island. In 1768, the eastern islands were visited by French explorer Bougainville, who named them the Navigator Islands, a name used by missionaries until about 1845 and in official European dispatches until about 1870.


title: Piedmontese Civil War section title: Background hierarchical section title: Piedmontese Civil War / Background caption reference description: Savoyard state, circa 1700; note Nice and Savoy are today part of France caption attribution description: English: Lands of Victor Amadeus II, Duke of Savoy. content: The Piedmontese Civil War, also known as the Savoyard Civil War, was a conflict for control of the Duchy of Savoy from 1639 to 1642. Although not formally part of the 1635 to 1659 Franco-Spanish War, Savoy's strategic importance drew in Habsburg Spain, which controlled the nearby Duchy of Milan, and the Kingdom of France.
Following the death of Victor Amadeus I, Duke of Savoy in October 1637, his wife Christine Marie of France was appointed Regent for their young son, Francis Hyacinth. When he too died in 1638, she ruled on behalf of her second son, Charles Emmanuel II, 1634 to 1675. Known as the Madamisti, or 'Madam' faction, her position was challenged by two of Victor Amadeus' brothers, Prince Maurice of Savoy and Thomas Francis, Prince of Carignano, who led the Principisti, or 'Princes' faction.
After four years of fighting, Christine was confirmed as Regent, a position she retained until her death in 1663. As part of the settlement that ended the war, she agreed to compensate her opponents; Prince Maurice married his niece Princess Luisa Cristina of Savoy, and became governor of Nice, then part of the Savoyard state.

The best views of the figure are obtained from the air, or from directly across the Vale, particularly around the villages of Great Coxwell, Longcot and Fernham. The site is owned and managed by the National Trust and is a Scheduled Ancient Monument. The Guardian stated in 2003 that "for more than 3,000 years, the Uffington White Horse has been jealously guarded as a masterpiece of minimalist art." The Uffington Horse is by far the oldest of the white horse figures in Britain and is of an entirely different design from the others inspired by it.

title: Container-deposit legislation section title: Australia hierarchical section title: Container-deposit legislation / Container-deposit legislation by country / Australia and Oceania / Australia caption reference description: Reverse container vending machine in Kooringal, New South Wales caption attribution description: English: Reverse vending machine for the NSW Container Deposit Scheme at the Kooringal Mall. content: Container-deposit legislation is any law that requires the collection of a monetary deposit on beverage containers at the point of sale and/or the payment of refund value to the consumers. When the container is returned to an authorized redemption center, or retailer in some jurisdictions, the deposit is partly or fully refunded to the redeemer. It is a deposit-refund system.
Governments may pass container deposit legislation for several reasons, including, for example:
To encourage recycling and complement existing curbside recycling programs, to reduce energy and material usage for containers
To specifically reduce beverage container litter along highways, in lakes and rivers, and on other public or private properties
To extend the usable lifetime of taxpayer-funded landfills
Deposits that are not redeemed are often kept by distributors or bottlers to cover the costs of the system or are escheated to the governmental entity involved to fund environmental programs.

Sitting : Paul Verlaine, Arthur Rimbaud, Léon Valade, Ernest d'Hervilly and Camille Pelletan. content: Jean Nicolas Arthur Rimbaud was a French poet known for his influence on modern literature and arts, prefiguring surrealism. Born in Charleville, he started writing at a very young age and excelled as a student, but abandoned his formal education in his teenage years to run away from home to Paris amidst the Franco-Prussian War. During his late adolescence and early adulthood he produced the bulk of his literary output, then completely stopped writing literature at the age of 20, after assembling his last major work, Illuminations.
Rimbaud was known to have been a libertine and a restless soul, having engaged in a hectic, at-times-violent romantic relationship with fellow poet Paul Verlaine, which lasted nearly two years. After he stopped caring about literature, he traveled extensively on three continents as a merchant and explorer, until his death from cancer just after his thirty-seventh birthday. As a poet, Rimbaud is well known for his contributions to symbolism and, among other works, for A Season in Hell, a precursor to modernist literature.
