Today, the fort has been beautifully renovated under the guidance of noted architect Gerald De Cunha and supported by Helen Trust, INTACT and Govt. of Goa. Presently this heritage structure is also used as a cultural center. This gallery houses an extensive collection of Mario Miranda's works.
2.) Arvalem (Harvalem) Cave-: (9 km from Bicholim) the 6th-century caves are the main attraction here. Four caves, all Brahmanical, were probably carved by the Bhojas of Chandor-Goa or the Chalukyas Of Badami. But as there are no inscriptions to go by, only a guess can be hazarded. Each cave has and Ardhamandapa with four pillars and the shrines have lingams (phallic symbols of Shiva) as the main objects of worship. The cave at the southern end was used as a residential chamber.
3.) Cabo De Rama Fort-: The name means Cape Of Rama. It is not known how this fort got its name. The honor is shared by Rama of Ramayana epic and Parashurama, another figure from Hindu myth.
Cabo De Rama in South Goa occupies the elongated headland jutting out into the sea. High above the sea level, the fort provides a huge panorama of the ocean on three sides. On the fourth side is the narrow attachment to the mainland.
The fort changed hands many times between Adil Shahis of Bijapur, The Marathas of Pune and Hyder Ali of Mysore. The sea off Canacona was notorious for smugglers and pirates, and the fort became a base for patrolling the seas. The fort once served as a sanatorium and finally as a jail in the last decades of the Portuguese rule.
4.) Aguada Fort & Light House-: The Dutch(country of Holland) was the early competitors of the Portuguese in the sea trade. In 1604, with seven ships, they closed the sea traffic at the mouth of the river Mandovi, for one whole month.
The Portuguese, till then operated from the fort of Reis Magos on the north bank and fort of Gaspar Dias on the south bank of river Mandovi. Both these forts were further inland. Their cannons had a limited range.
The Dutch ships, anchored far on the mouth of the river Mandovi, were beyond the range of the cannons of both these forts. The Portuguese could not dislodge them.
Shocked at this gap in their defenses, they took to building two more forts, the Marmagao fort at the mouth of river Zuari and Aguada fort at the mouth of river Mandovi. Aguada Fort is mainly divided into 2 parts:
(i). AGUADA UPPER PART
(ii). AGUADA LOWER PART
(i). AGUADA UPPER PART -> Stronghold Aguada finished in 1606 CE, is one of only a handful couple of unblemished Portuguese fortifications in the subcontinent, and an incredible case of the seventeenth-century military engineering. The post has a beacon, sanctuary and underground water stockpiling tank.
Aguada implies a watering place. This site on the northern shore of the stream Mandovi has numerous common springs. Water, redirected from characteristic springs was put away in the enormous underground tank, inside the post. Boats gathered water from here before continuing on long voyages.
(ii). AGUADA LOWER PART-> The fortress at Aguada had a lower fortification wall built of laterite with a moat running from east to west following the contour on the hill overlooking the Arabian Sea. This was completed in 1612 by Portuguese.
It served as a place for watering to the Portuguese Armadas and a point for keeping watch on intruders entering into the estuary of Mandovi River. It has one bastion protruding towards the sea named the Queen Marina Bastion and four smaller bastions at different intervals.
4.1) Aguada Lighthouse-: The rocky headland, with the Aguada Fort on top, known as Aguada Point, is 80 meters above the sea level. It had an ancient lighthouse, presently standing inside the fort, once had a light beacon, operating every seven minutes, later increased to every 30 seconds interval. This lighthouse stopped operation in 1976.
The modern Lighthouse can be Seen to the north of the Aguada Fort.
FORTS - DECLINE IN THEIR STRATEGIC IMPORTANCE
By the end 19th century the strategic importance of the forts was declining due to rapid advances in the technology of warfare, like long-range cannons and an introduction of aircraft.
The Cabo fort at Dona Paula had long been remodeled into a Portuguese Viceroys palace ( Now Cabo Raj Niwas- Residence of the Governor-visible from Upper Aguada Fort).
Fort of Gaspar Dias (presently the area of Miramar in Panjim) was dismantled. Fort of Marmagao was overrun by the city of Vasco Da Gama. Cabo De Rama is in a state of ruin. St. Estevan fort is in a much better condition due to modern restorations.
Only Aguada, and Reis Magos, in the city limits of Panjim, are in good condition. The Archaeological Survey of India, Goa Circle has been carrying out conservation at the Aguada Fort and work at Reis Magos Fort, now open to the public as a fort museum, was taken up by The Hamlyn Trust, London under the direction of the well-known architect of Goa, Gerrard Da Cunha.
Innumerable forts like Rachel, Teracol, Chapora, Thivim, Colvale, Sanquelim, Alorna, Nanez, Corjuem along with their bastions, ramparts, watchtowers, and walls have disappeared due to the local need for building materials.

In looking at the allegations, the investigation into the alleged credit card fraud operation actually started last year after a man had his checkbook stolen during a burglary. After the checkbook was stolen, authorities claim the suspects started a rather elaborate scheme to make it look like other people were taking money out of the man's bank account.
At some point, authorities were led to the suspects' home. When police arrived on the scene, two of those arrested were supposedly in the process of committing fraud online.
Once in the house, supplies typically used to make fake credit cards, along with IDs and counterfeit money were found. Weapons and drugs were also allegedly found on the premises.
Three people were arrested and all are facing charges for credit card fraud, forgery, counterfeiting, possession of equipment to manufacture fraudulent documents and illegally obtaining personal information. Every one of these charges is a felony and their bail has been set at $5 million.
As this case goes to show, it is quite common for credit card fraud charges to be accompanied by other criminal charges. Depending on the circumstances of the charges, just a credit card fraud conviction can come with it a rather lengthy jail sentence, let alone the other consequences that can come from the other charges.
Due to the consequences of a credit card fraud charge, and the potential for these charges to affect the rest of a person's life, it is important for anyone accused of these types of crimes to not try and go at this alone. Rather, those facing credit card fraud charges in California need a criminal defense attorney on their side with experience handling these types of cases.

Nutrition is one of the most important topics in recent times. Nutrition plays a critical role in our health and overall quality of life. However, for many individuals, keeping an efficient nutritional regime requires time they don't have. For certain individuals, it also means preparing whole meals they can't make due to a debilitating illness. Whatever the reason may be, there is an alternative for everyone looking for a ready-to-go meal. Meal replacement shakes are an easy way to substitute a whole meal while getting the nutrition your body craves. ENU invites you to keep reading as we discuss more about weight management shakes and the health benefits of their ingredients.
Meal replacement shakes are exactly what the name implies. They are a replacement option for a regular meal. These drinkable meals exist as an easy, on-the-go solution for busy people who have little time to prep a sit-down meal (or get out of the office to buy lunch). Additionally, they provide nutritional content that not only satiates hunger, but fuels your body with necessary vitamins and minerals.
Meal replacement shakes are a great solution for people who are looking for a healthier yet simpler approach to weight management. For instance, a shake's high protein, low-sugar combination can help individuals get rid off excess fat and build more muscle, making some meal replacement shakes double as sports nutrition shakes.
That being said, it's important to remember that successful weight management is something a meal replacement shake cannot guarantee on its own. The best way to maximize your weight gain (or weight loss) is combining your food replacement shakes with an exercise routine tailor-made to your needs. Always consult with a physician or nutrition expert before making any changes to your diet, especially if you have specific nutrition needs.
What Ingredients Are in Meal Replacement Shakes?
Some people might try to argue that meal replacement shakes are "not the real deal" since they are not a sit-down meal. While it's true that shakes offer on-the-go convenience, that doesn't mean they lack nutritional value. In fact, providing a nutritionally balanced product is one of our top priorities at ENU.
For example, one of the main components in our meal replacement shakes is protein. Protein can be found in ingredients like chicken, meat, and fish, as well as beans and eggs. Since protein is essential for maintaining body weight and repairing muscle, it's only natural that our health-conscious meal replacement shakes would incorporate plenty of protein into their ingredients – 17 grams per serving, to be exact. One of the best sources of protein is whey protein isolate, which is easily absorbed by the body – and is also easy on the stomach. We combine whey protein isolate with GMO-free soy protein concentrate, providing a source of valine and other ingredients that keep cells functioning smoothly.
Other important ingredients that go into our shakes are carbohydrates. Put simply, carbs are macronutrients (alongside protein and fat) that are used by the body as fuel. However, selecting the "right" carbs is key to keeping an overall balance in your diet. Refined or "simple" carbs, like those found in white bread and pastries, don't satiate hunger and can actually lead to more overeating. The "complex" carbs found in whole foods, like quinoa and brown rice, have the opposite effect because they require more time to digest. We make our shakes with brown rice, quinoa, tapioca, and other complex carbs to help you feel fuller, longer.
As mentioned before, fat is another critical macronutrient. Fats are as essential as proteins and carbs and should not be overlooked from a nutritional standpoint. However, not all types of fat are good for the body. For example, trans fats can increase the risk of stroke or diabetes. Only healthy fats, such as unsaturated fats, can fight high cholesterol and lower the risk of cardiovascular disease. Our shakes feature healthy fats like coconut oil and sunflower oil to help keep your body – especially your heart – in optimal condition.
In addition to providing proteins, healthy fats, and complex carbs, our meal replacement shakes also include essential vitamins and minerals – plus a balanced calorie content. All of these ingredients are health-conscious choices – especially when the alternative is buying take-out, eating junk food, or skipping the meal altogether.
At ENU, we're dedicated to making delicious, high-quality products that make getting good nutrition easier. Whether you need help fueling your workout routine, recovering from major weight loss after an illness, or keeping your weight under control, ENU meal replacement shakes can make reaching your goals easier – and tastier.
Don't miss the opportunity to take advantage of a ready-to-go and convenient meal replacement drink. To learn more about our products or place an order today, contact ENU online, or call (855) 266-6733.

Die Energieversorgung Offenbach AG (kurz: EVO) ist ein Energieversorgungsunternehmen für Strom, Erdgas und Wärme. Das Versorgungsgebiet erstreckt sich auf die Stadt Offenbach am Main und Teile des Landkreises Offenbach sowie Hessens.

Geschichte
Die Energieversorgung Offenbach wurde 1847 unter dem Namen Gasgesellschaft in Offenbach gegründet. Das ursprünglich private Unternehmen ging im Jahr 1879 für 700.000 Mark in den Besitz der Stadt Offenbach über und hieß von da an Städtisches Gaswerk Offenbach.

Mit der Zeit versorgte das städtische Unternehmen die Verbraucher neben Gas auch mit Wasser und Strom, weshalb 1939 die Stadtwerke Offenbach gegründet wurden.

1980 erfolgte die Privatisierung der Stadtwerke, aus der die Energieversorgung Offenbach AG hervorging. Seit dem Jahr 2000 ist die Mannheimer MVV Energie AG Hauptaktionär (48,419 %) und Konzernmutter.

Where Do Bullets Go When Guns Are Fired Straight Up Into the Air?
by Patrick J. Kiger Updated: May 7, 2019
Firing off gunshots into the air can be extremely dangerous to bystanders. AleksandarGeorgiev/Getty Images
The saying "What goes up must come down" is an appropriate starting point. If you fire a gun into the air, the bullet will travel up to a mile high (depending on the angle of the shot and the power of the gun). Once it reaches its apogee, the bullet will fall. Air resistance limits its speed, but bullets are designed to be fairly aerodynamic, so the speed is still quite lethal if the bullet happens to hit someone. In rural areas, the chance of hitting someone is remote because the number of people is low. In crowded cities, however, the probability rises dramatically, and people get killed quite often by stray bullets.
Here's one example: On New Year's Eve 2017, Democratic member of the Texas House of Representatives Armando Martinez, stepped outside a home and suddenly felt as if he'd been struck with a sledgehammer. After he was rushed to the hospital, it turned out that he'd been struck on the top of the head by a falling .223-caliber bullet. A fragment of the round penetrated the top of his skull and lodged itself in the top layer of his brain, requiring surgery to remove it, according to CNN.
Martinez, who recovered from his injury, became another victim of the strange custom of celebratory gunfire, in which revelers fire bullets into the air that eventually fall back to Earth — and occasionally hit other people.
There aren't good statistics on how often this happens across the U.S., but news reports describe numerous fatalities over the years. This 2015 article from The Trace, for example, describes two cases of children killed by falling bullets apparently fired during Fourth of July celebrations in 2011 and 2012. A 2004 study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day of that year, bullets from celebratory gunfire caused 19 injuries and one death. Thirty-six percent of the victims were struck on the top of the head, with feet (26 percent) and shoulders (16 percent) the next most common injury sites. A 2017 Miami Herald article cites numerous instances over the years, ranging from at least 20 people killed in Iraq in 2003 by celebratory gunfire after the death of Saddam Hussein's sons Uday and Qusay.
So How High Will a Bullet Go?
Aside from the perplexing question of why such a reckless, potentially lethal practice remains so popular, you may also be wondering, what actually happens to a bullet that's fired straight up into the sky? How high does it go? What stops it and sends it falling back to Earth? And when it descends, when and where does it land?
Those aren't necessarily simple questions to answer. Ballistics researchers have spent a lot of time studying the performance of bullets fired horizontally, because that's useful information for improving the accuracy and range of shooters. But when it comes to firing straight up in the air, which isn't something that soldiers, police officers, hunters or target shooters normally would do, there's not nearly as much data.
U.S. Army Maj. Gen. Julian Hatcher, who apparently was curious and had some time on his hands, did experiments in Florida in which he fired various weapons — ranging from rifles to machine guns — up into the air, and tried to measure how long it took for the bullets to come down, as well as where they landed. As he noted in his 1947 volume "Hatcher's Notebook," he calculated that a standard .30 caliber bullet fired from a rifle pointed straight up would rise to an altitude of 9,000 feet (2,743.2 meters) in 18 seconds, and then would return to Earth in another 31 seconds, and during the last few thousand feet would attain a "nearly constant" speed of 300 feet (91.4 meters) per second.
But ballistics researcher James Walker, who holds a doctorate in mathematics and is department director of engineering dynamics at the Southwest Research Institute in San Antonio, says that the altitude attained by a bullet fired straight up would depend upon the type of weapon and projectile, just as it does when fired horizontally. A handgun, which has a shorter barrel than a rifle and fires ammunition with a smaller cartridge that doesn't contain as much powder, isn't going to send a bullet soaring as high as a rifle will. Different types of rifles and ammunition vary as well.
"With a .22, which isn't a big-game rifle, the cartridge is the same diameter as the bullet," Walker explains. "It doesn't have that much powder, and that bullet doesn't go fast. Rifles like the .30-06 have a much larger cartridge, which will go faster because there is more powder to burn."
When fired horizontally, bullets tend to slow down rapidly due to air drag, so that a rifle bullet may be down to half of its initial speed by the time it gets to 500 meters (1,640.42 feet), Walker says. "If you choose to shoot it up, it will slow down faster because of gravity, not a whole lot."
For altitude estimates, Walker pointed to this chart on the website of Close Focus Research, a ballistics testing company, which shows that a .25 caliber ACP handgun bullet might reach a maximum height of 2,287 feet (697 meters), while a .30-06 rifle bullet would rise to 10,105 feet (3,080 meters).
What Goes Up...
But no matter how high a bullet goes in the air, however, eventually it will decelerate until its velocity reaches zero, at which point it will begin to fall back to Earth, as detailed in this 2018 article on falling bullet injuries in the Journal of Neuroscience Rural Practice.
"Again, the height up is a non-issue as to the speed down, as the bullet (if no longer spin stabilized) will hit a terminal velocity based on its shape, orientation, and whether or not it is tumbling," Walker explains in a follow-up email.
And most importantly, a bullet is unlikely to fall straight down, as wind can alter its path, Walker says. That makes it difficult to predict where a bullet will land.
Back in Texas, Representative Martinez sought to keep others from being hit by falling bullets, by introducing legislation raising the penalties for discharging a firearm without an intended target, according to The Monitor. So far, he hasn't been successful, but he reportedly plans to try again in 2019.
Now That's Disturbing
This 2007 article in Annals of Thoracic Surgery describes the unusual case of a 47-year-old man who was struck in the chest by a bullet that fell from the sky, and suffered cardiac and abdominal injuries as a result. Doctors eventually found a .45 caliber bullet inside his stomach. Though the damage required nine hours of surgery to fix, the patient eventually recovered.

Mrs Danvers and Cathy Ames made my list too. Both a little bit unstable. I preferred Redd Heart of the Looking Glass Wars too. There was more to her.
Haha! Great list. Now I know where to go to get my evil fix!
Mrs Danvers made my list too. I love your description of her lol.
Ah! We can't forget Bellatrix Lestrange. And even, perhaps, Lady Catherine from Pride & Prejudice. Totally agree with your list though. Number 5 especially.... can't even imagine.
Lots of nasties in Fairy Tales and the wicked step-mothers. Not forgetting Cruella whatshername from 101 Dalmations.
Dolores made my list too. I hate how she tried to control and have power over everything and everyone.
Check out my bad girls in my Top Ten post!
Great list! I completely forgot about Dollanganger. She is pretty despicable!
Wow, congrats on making it to 10! Umbridge is just so awful and you're right, I'm sure she was horrible as a young girl as well!
Ah, that's right. Another commenter said something about all the wicked stepmothers and what not.
Yes yes yes to Lady Regan...I guess I didn't think of her because I didn't read the book, but if the portrayal in the mini-series was anything like the written character she was despicable indeed!
I love that you included The Lilim on your list.
Georgia actually made my list (from Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging). I don't even remember any of the other characters; Georgia was the one who stood out in my mind as the mean one.

Week Three Rewind: Supposed favorites come up empty
Getty Images Vikings quarterback Christian Ponder celebrates a touchdown during the second quarter against the San Francisco 49ers at the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome.
By Milt Northrop|Published Mon, Sep 24, 2012
Winning the games you're supposed to win is supposedly a formula for success in the National Footbal League.
Sunday, the San Francisco 49ers, New Orleans Saints and Detroit Lions came up short against opponents they were supposed to beat, at least on paper. So much for form.
The Niners were upset at Minnesota, 24-13, against a 7-point underdog.
Detroit made an amazing last-minute comeback at Tennessee, only to fall to the Titans, 44-41, in overtime.
The Saints, who are winless, lost to the supposedly hapless Kansas City Chiefs, 27-24 in overtime. K.C., a 9-point underdog after losing by big scores to Atlanta and Buffalo, rallied behind running back Jamaal Charles.
At the end of the day Sunday, only three teams were undefeated - Atlanta and the surprising Arizona Cardinals in the NFC and the Houston Texans in the AFC; only Cleveland and New Orleans are winless.?
Upset specials
Vikings 24, 49ers 13
The scoop: Christian Ponder threw two touchdown passes to tight end Kyle Rudolph and ran for another score to help Minnesota hand the 49ers their first defeat. The Vikings began boldly with a fourth-and-goal touchdown pass by Ponder to Rudolph. Alex Smith's San Francisco franchise-record interception-free streak ended at 249 straight passes.
Why the Vikings won: They took the lead on the game's first series and never lost it.
?Titans 44, Lions 41 (OT)
The scoop: Rob Bironas kicked a 26-yard field goal, his third of the game, in overtime, and Detroit backup quarterback Shaun Hill, who was filling in for the injured Matthew Stafford, was stopped on a fourth-and-1 quarterback sneak at the Tennessee 7 to end it. After a 72-yard fumble return with 1:18 left by Alterraun Verser had given Tennessee a 41-27 lead, Hill threw a 3-yard touchdown pass to Calvin Johnson. Detroit recovered an onside kick and Hill hit Titus Young with a 46-yard pass on the last play of regulation to send it to overtime.
Why the Titans won: They gave up 583 yards but Jake Locker's scoring bombs offset the defensive shortcomings.
Chiefs 27, Saints 24 (OT)
The scoop: Ryan Succop kicked six field goals, a Chiefs record, one to force overtime in the final seconds and another from 31 yards to lift Kansas City to its first win. Kansas City scored only one touchdown, a 91-yard run by Jamaal Charles, who finished with 233 yards rushing. Drew Brees passed for 240 yards and three touchdowns, but missed all six of his passes through the fourth quarter and overtime.
Why the Chiefs won: The Saints blew a 24-6 lead over the last 20:36 as Charles' run ignited the comeback.
?Raiders 34, Steelers 31
The scoop: Sebastian Janikowski kicked a 43-yard field goal on the last play as Oakland scored the final 13 points after wide receiver Darrius Heyward-Bey was knocked out and hospitalized in the fourth quarter by a helmet-to-helmet hit in the end zone by Steelers safety Ryan Mundy that was not called a penalty by the replacement officials. Carson Palmer then threw his third touchdown pass for Oakland and Janikowski kicked two field goals to give coach Dennis Allen his first win.
Why the Raiders won: They forced a turnover and a punt on Pittsburgh's last two series.
?Jets 23, Dolphins 20 (OT)
The scoop: Mark Sanchez hit Santonio Holmes for a 38-yard gain to set up the Nick Folk's winning field goal from 33 yards with 6:04 left in overtime.
Why the Jets won: Miami coach Joe Philbin outsmarted himself. His timeout negated a blocked try by Folk before the winning kick.??Bengals 38, Redskins 31
The scoop: Cincinnati's Andy Dalton completed 19-of-27 passes for 328 yards and three touchdowns, and A.J. Green caught nine passes for a career-high 183 yards.

The scoop: Blaine Gabbert connected with Cecil Shorts III on an 80-yard touchdown pass with 45 seconds left to lift Jacksonville to its first win. Maurice Jones-Drew ran for 177 yards, including a 59-yard scoring run. The Colts had taken the lead, 17-16, on Adam Vinatieri's 37-yard field goal with 56 seconds left.
Why the Jaguars won: They were outgained and converted only 4-of-13 third downs, but they got two huge scoring plays from Shorts and Jones-Drew.
Ravens, 31, Patriots 30
The scoop: Rookie Justin Tucker kicked a 27-yard field goal on the last play of regulation to cap Baltimore's comeback from a 30-21 fourth-quarter deficit. Joe Flacco's 5-yard pass to Torrey Smith brought the Ravens within two points. After forcing a punt, they marched 70 yards in seven plays and were helped by a pass interference penalty.
Why the Ravens won: Flacco completed three straight passes to get the winning drive started.
The unbeatens?Falcons 27, Chargers 3
The scoop: Matt Ryan threw touchdown passes to three different receivers and safety Thomas DeCoud had two interceptions and a fumble recovery for Atlanta. Ryan completed 30-of-40 passes for 275 yards, with his first interception of the season. San Diego was the third straight AFC West team to lose to Atlanta.
Why the Falcons won: The Chargers turned the ball over three of their first six series in the first half.
?Cardinals 27, Eagles 6
The scoop: Kevin Kolb threw for 222 yards and two touchdowns and James Sanders returned one of Michael Vick's two fumbles 93 yards for a touchdown. Arizona, off to its best start in 38 years, sacked Vick five times.

The scoop: Matt Schaub threw for four touchdowns against a confused Broncos defense to stake Houston to a big lead on the way to a 3-0 start for the first time in the franchise's 11-season history.

Why the Texans won: Wade Phillips' defense limited Denver to three field goals the first 50 minutes of the game.

What is Indigenous Literature?
On left: E. Pauline Johnson photograph circa 1895 by Cochran from Library and Archives Canada, Online MIKAN no. 3194762. On right: Title page of Johnson's first volume of poetry, The White Wampum, published London: John Lane, 1895.
Starting with a definition of indigenous peoples as the original or natural inhabitants of a country or region, one may describe indigenous literature as literature produced by original or native peoples and their descendants. Literature can take many forms: poetry, drama, fiction and creative nonfiction. Memoirs and autobiographical writings are of particular importance as a form of nonfiction that can provide cultural context for the interpretation and understanding of indigenous literature.
When the English Dept. at this University developed the lower level undergraduate liberal studies course ENG 203 The Literature of Indigenous [formerly Native] Peoples, it was decided that it would focus upon contemporary literature by Aboriginal / First Nations / Indigenous peoples from Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United States of America. This research guide will likewise focus on these geographic or national regions. Additionally, the focus will be upon works published in the English language.
Language evolves. The tools that libraries use to describe, classify and index material also evolve but rarely manage to reflect the most current terms or ways of thinking about a subject. Terms acceptable to one person or group may be offensive to another. Terms may be assigned specific parameters by legal definition or in thesauri that guide usage in a particular tool such as prescribed list of subject headings for cataloguing purposes, notably Canadian Subject Headings (CSH) and Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH). All attempts to classify knowledge and assign descriptors are subject to world views of their creators, and in the case of subject headings, often reflected what today is recognized as colonial views. Library and Archives Canada proposed changing some subject headings for Aboriginal peoples in Canada in 2007 and was unable to find a consensus. This was explained in a brief posting, now inaccessible, called "Update on subject headings for Aboriginal peoples in Canada." By 2019, following more widespread consultations, Library and Archives Canada announced in the briefing Canadian Subject Headings for Indigenous Peoples that they would stop using the LCSH headings "Indians of North America."
For a brief overview on the evolving nature of terminolgy, consult the Terminology page from the University of British Columbia's Indigenous Foundations website.
In this guide, I will suggest ways to find information using terminology employed in the tools currently in use in Canadian academic libraries. I will endeavour to employ terms now in use by this university library, while also noting variant decisions and archaic terms that may still be in use by other library systems. Researchers should be aware that despite library efforts to adhere to standard terms, sometimes it is necessary to embrace better language that respects indigenous peoples instead of relying on colonialist language. When searching other libraries, archives, museums, historical databases and full text resources written in earlier years, the language used still reflect the norms of the day. Keep this in mind when searching across multiple finding tools.
As of 2016, the Ontario Human Rights Commission prefers to use indigenous peoples to describe peoples in Ontario, including status, non-status, First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples. The Faculty Association at this university is considering the term indigenous as its preferred choice but discussion is ongoing. The Government of Canada in 2022 has two departments: Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Canada (CIRNAC) and Indigenous Services Canada (ISC) that replaced the Ministry of Indigenous and Northern Affairs; these bodies use the terms First Nations, Inuit and Métis to describe three categories of Indigenous peoples in Canada. The federal government has statutes that apply many different terms as illustrated by the following examples: Indian Act, Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development Act, and, First Nations Land Management Act. Additionally, the federal government distinguishes between "Status Indians" and "Non-status Indians."
IMPORTANT NOTICE (Feb. 12, 2020)
Given the failure of the cataloguing agencies including Library and Archives Canada, and Library of Congress, to address the need to bring subject terminology into modern usage that respects Indigenous Peoples including First Nations, Inuit, and Métis, many libraries, archives and museums are exploring and implementing new headings. This University Library is working with other cultural institutions to replace all headings of the sort "Indians of North America". This is part of our response to the calls for action from the Truth and Reconciliations Commission of Canada (2015). This is one small part of the efforts to decolonize institutions.

With the market eagerly awaiting the EU referendum results as to whether we stay within the EU or whether we leave – markets are volatile and uncertain. People want to know when will we know the result of the Brexit Vote? As the polls have swung slightly in favour of the U.K. remaining within the EU, implying less short term uncertainty and a strengthening pound, the gold price had slid somewhat. This has in fact strengthened demand as our clients have used the dip as a buying opportunity to protect themselves from longer term global volatility.
Throughout the voting day on Thursday we may be able to use the gold price as an indicator of the likely referendum outcome, with strong gold pointing to a likely leave vote and weakness indicating a likely stay vote.

Forehead lift is a very effective cosmetic surgery option that assists in elevating drooping eyebrows. One of the most significant problems of drooping eyebrow is the obstruction of vision. Other lesser problems that arise from a drooping eyebrow are formation of deep creases on the forehead, which often leads to others seeing you as a hostile or tired person and can thus lead to communication gaps in day-to-day activities.
There was not enough technological know-how to tackle this issue not much long ago. Back at the starting of the 1990s, there was no effective way to resolve this issue but after the inception of the fiber-optic endoscope in the early 90s there was a revolutionary change in this area and now it has become possible to salvage this problem with quite ease. For anyone living in Beverly Hills, this problem can be very easily addressed without much hustle. In Beverly Hills, forehead lift facility can be easily found at any of the numerous available health centers. There is no need of running around to places in search for better doctors and surgery as all the best facilities and human resource is rightly available in Beverly Hills.
You can put your trust in this surgical process for its sheer efficiency and effectively. There was once a time, two decades back, when this surgery was used to be done by forming a large incision that ran from one ear to the other. This incision, because of its excessive size would always lead to the retention of scars from the surgery. There were other common problems that came with brow lift. For instance, some people faced hair loss and scalp numbness. Fast forward twenty years and no such problem will come to haunt you now. The field of surgery has traveled a long way since then and you will find it a much simpler and uncomplicated forehead lift process now. With a lot of great surgeons with years of experience available in Beverly Hills, you can go through the process without any hesitation.
Currently, this surgery emphasizes on manipulating only particular muscles that will result in rising of the eyebrows while also ensuring a subtle change in appearance. The changes wouldn't be too overt and could actually appear negligible to someone passing a casual eye on you. This makes the technique much better and provides it with better aesthetic values than the past. There is an increasing emphasis on pulling the brows in a sideways manner rather than a completely vertical manner that leads to poorer results.
Another good aspect of forehead lift surgery is that there is no loss of skin at most times. However, in some cases there might be some skin loss, but that too would be very insignificant. This will ensure that you will retain those muscles that aid in frowning. With all these facilities on offer there is no reason why you should not go and opt for this surgery to provide better aesthetics and balance to your face.
