There are contact sports and then there is the IMCF, the International Medieval Combat Federation. In this sport participants don steel armour and dulled weapons. Their objective is to knock down their opponent. This is serious heavy duty contact, with a weapon. It makes ice hockey look like rough game a tennis with foul language.
The sport of modern medieval combat is a relatively new sport. Like boxing, all one has to do is knock down the opponent for a win. Not for ten seconds, but just off his or her feet for one moment. Somewhere between reality and a reenactment, these athletes face off their opponents with nearly deadly force. Instead of stadiums, tournaments take place in front of old castles.
This holiday has been somewhat muted due to a viral outbreak. Nonetheless, Pi Day is celebration any person of any creed, gender, ethnic, or citizenship can celebrate. Somewhat silly, it is fun day to eat a pi.
Of vexillological note, the most famous imaginary sorority of π▲π (Pi Delta Pi) has flag that appears as a racing pennant in the classic movie of Nerdhood, Revenge of the Nerds. The flag has a blue field with the Greek letters in white. The sorority members are also wearing letters on their shirts.
The leader of Pi Delta Pi Sorority is Betty Childs as played by Julia Montgomery. She is wearing the Greek Letters of her sorority. The letters are dark blue.
Currently, the sorority Pi Delta Pi only exists in our imagination. Maybe someday it will become a real institution.
Pi Day is honestly the Nerdiest of Nerd Holidays. Thus the official anthem of Pi is the Talent show of the Nerds 'Everybody Clap Your Hands' song.
The flag for disputed Kuril Islands is based upon the Nagorno-Karabakh flag with the shattered step pattern. Russia has promised to return a small portion of the islands back to Japan.
Perhaps there is a way to save face for both sides? A good trade is in order! Russia could give Japan one of its Arctic Circle Islands and Japan could give Russia one of its tiny South Pacific Islands. Thus Japan would join the nations of the Arctic Circle, while Russia would have her first warm water territory. In the middle of the transaction, the disputed Kuril Islands can be split. Thus both sides will get a win, an expansion into waters and islands beyond their traditional reach.
If the Russo-Japanese Expansion-Trade Peace Settlement Deal takes place, both countries gain something new! Japan joins the club of Arctic nations of Norway, Sweden, Canada, and the USA while Russia finally gets a warm water port she has always been dreaming about.
Japan and Russia already have a tight border, likewise Russia already has tight border with the USA. As Palin put it, you can see Russia from Alaska, or rather Russians can see Alaska from Russia.
Remember that Russia is no stranger to the area. Russia has a long border with China and is neighborly with the Koreas.
No doubt Japanese scientists would love to have a permanent base in the Arctic, as Japan gets explore a whole new winter wonderland.
If Russia really wanted to sweeten the deal, perhaps a little slice of Kaliningrad in Europe could be given to Japan, making Japan a Eurasian nation. Heck, even a Monaco sized slice somewhere in Black Sea would be nice.
No matter the conflict or game, when you surrender you gain something intangible and when you win, you also loose an opportunity. There are no 'no win' situations, because every situation is a win for all, from a certain point of view.
Флаг для спорных Курильских островов основываются на нагорно-карабахском флаг с разбитым шагом рисунком. Россия пообещала вернуть небольшую часть островов в Японию.
Может быть , есть способ сохранить лицо для обеих сторон? Хорошая торговля в порядке! Россия
может предоставить Японии один из арктических островов Окружность и
Япония могла бы дать России один из своих крошечных южно - тихоокеанских островов. Таким образом , Япония присоединится к народам Северного полярного круга, в то время как Россия будет иметь свою первую территорию теплой воды. В середине сделки, спорные Курилы может быть разделены. Таким образом , обе стороны получат выигрыш, расширение в воды и острова за пределами их традиционной досягаемости.
Если русско-японской Expansion-Trade мира Урегулирование сделки происходит, обе страны получают что - то новое! Япония присоединяется к клубу арктических народов Норвегии, Швеции, Канады и США , а Россия , наконец , получает теплый порт воды она всегда мечтала о.
Япония и Россия уже имеют границ герметичные, также Россия уже имеет плотную границу с США. Как Пэйлин выразился, вы можете видеть Россию с Аляски, или , скорее , русские могут увидеть Аляску из России.
Помните , что Россия не привыкать к области. Россия имеет протяженную границу с Китаем и добрососедские с Корей.
Без сомнения , японские
ученые не хотели бы иметь постоянную базу в Арктике, так как Япония
получает исследовать совершенно новую зимнюю сказку.
Если Россия действительно хочет , чтобы подсластить сделку, возможно, небольшую часть Калининграда в Европе может быть предоставлено в Японию, что делает Японию евразийской нации. Heck, даже Монако кусочек размером где - то в Черном море было бы неплохо.
Независимо от того , конфликта или игры, когда вы сдаетесь вы получаете что - то нематериальное , и когда вы выигрываете, вы также потеряете возможность. Есть нет «не выиграть» ситуация, потому что каждая ситуация является победой для всех, с определенной точки зрения.
The Alexandria-DC Union flag is based upon the Artsakh, a region in Azerbaijan that is mostly Armenian. Basically the Blue Atari Spaceship pointed towards the hoist is the key element that represents a return to Motherland. The Nargorno-Karabakh flag is the Armenian flag with a white Atari Space Ship that indicates Nargorno-Karabakh wants to become a part of Armenia. Thus the blue arrow point indicates that the 'lost quarter' of DC should be returned to DC in a reparation kind of way.
When DC was first chosen by George Washington, it was perfect diamond. But then the issue of slavery saw this beautiful 'dark crystal' shatter, when slave holders in Alexandria thought it was more keen to return to Virginia.
The basis of the Alexandria-DC Reunion flag stems from the semi-official flag of Nagorno-Karabakh.
The Azeri and Amenian go together like salt and pepper. Their names are so similar, yet they are people so different. There were drafted into Soviet Union, but when freedom tolled across the land a deadly game of payback between peoples commenced. Like Yugoslavia, a brutal ethnic cleansing left deep scars on Armenia and Azerbaijan. However, the war between these old roommates received little notice in the Western Media. In the aftermath, a divided land like Israel-to-Palestine or Cyprus-to-Northern Cyprus has put a barrier between to ancient sisters.
Officially the Nagorno-Karabakh flag has higher recognition as the other Armenian flag with an Atari Space Ship pointed toward the hoist. Now Azerbaijan has flag with an Atari Space Ship pointing toward to fly. It is the Yukhari-Bukhudarli Flag, that represents the enclaves that were once Azeri, that are now under Armenian control.
The North Kosovo flag is based upon the Serbian flag mixed in with an element of Norgono-Karabakh flag. The Norgono-Karabakh element is the Atari Age nine pointed arrow that points towards the hoist. Basically this 2 bit graphic represents a region that outside of the 'Motherland.' In this case, the northern region of Kosovo is populated with Serbs who would rather be a part of Serbia, rather than Kosovo.
This flag is meant to educate and connect, provoking thought that all nations have parallel issues that can be resolved peacefully. As the trite expression We are All Connected expounds, we are all connected to Serbia and Kosovo. Remember WWI? Hopefully this flag shows that no nation suffers alone. Rather it is the hope that all parties involved, recognize that we are in this together. God Bless Serbia and Allah Bless Kosovo.
If not provoke a different way of looking at an old problem, this flag should bring a smile or chuckle.
The Cardinal Animal Poles are an organic system poles that point in the direction of North, South, East, and West. The animals on the finials always point toward the direction of the origin. Since Polar Bears are native to the North Pole they point Northward. On the other hand, Penguins are native to the Southern Hemisphere, thus they point Southward. Consequently, the Polar Bear and Polar Penguin are facing opposite directions.
Likewise the Rooster is associated with the East due to the rising of the Sun in the East. Also, chickens all over the world are though to have been domesticated from the Jungles of East Asia, namely Thailand. The wild bird that looks remarkable like the standard cartoon Rooster is the Gallus gallus. "On the other foot"... the Jaguar is native to the Western Hemisphere. Specifically the Black Jaguar is the best fit. Reason being West is associated with coming of Night. The Sun always sets in the West and the Jaguar is native to the Western Hemisphere, get it?
These Cardinal Animal poles should be placed on the most Eastern, Western, Southern, and Northern point of schools and universities. Or at the compass head of an immobile direction indicator.
Also the colours of the pole should follow the pattern. They don't have to be exact copies. But since red pole of North is red due to the Northbound Red Star of Orion, known as "Beetle Juice." Also Santa is associated with the colour red. Thus the Blue South Pole is associated with the Southbound Blue Star of Orion, known as Rye-Jell." The Yellow Pole of the East is associated with a risen Yellow Sun of Morning. Finally a rainbow motif should be found on the Western Pole, as to represent the many colours of the setting sun, as the black darkness of night takes over from day.
So there we have it, you can finally show off your East Pole with Rooster or West Pole with Jaguar.
Of vexillological note, the most famous imaginary sorority of π▲π (Pi Delta Pi) has flag that appears as a racing pennant in the classic movie of Nerdhood, Revenge of the Nerds. The flag has a blue field with the Greek letters in white. The sorority members are also wearing letters on their shirts.
