The criterion is an emotional one, and arises from the correct satisfaction of the residents' emotional needs through the appropriate urban morphology, which is in turn created only through user participation. The type of urban space that is successful is not the result of post-war planning. Biophilia is an essential component of the design of the human environment according to <mask>' newer writings. Influence Architecture <mask> has had an influence on several major figures in architecture. Christopher Alexander, author of the seminal treatises A Pattern Language and Notes on the Synthesis of Form, describes Salingaros' influence.At some point in the mid-nineties, he began writing papers looking at architectural problems in a scientific way, after helping me edit material in The Nature of Order for years. He made important contributions to the building of this bridge and to scientific explorations in architecture which constituted a bridge in the second half of the 90's. Prince Charles, an influential critic of contemporary architecture, expressed <mask>' influence in his own preface to A Theory of Architecture: "Perhaps no voice is more thought-provoking than that of this intriguing, perhaps historically important, new thinker?" According to The End of Tall Buildings, the age of skyscrapers is at an end, and that 9/11 marks the beginning of the end of modernism in urban form. One of the most controversial essays on the topic was about skyscrapers. Benjamin Forgey of The Washington Post said, "What many are feeling today goes right to the marrow: the fear of being a target." The World Trade Center towers are ideal targets.The New Athens Charter of 2003 is meant to replace the original 1933 Athens Charter written by Le Corbusier.

The work can be seen as allied with the New Urbanism movement to replace sprawl with smaller cities and towns. <mask> is involved in forming a community that uses the same techniques as File sharing and Open-source software. The P2P Urbanism movement combines user participation in design and the use of Design Patterns from Christopher Alexander with other methods found useful in handling complex software. A description, definition, and recent articles can be found on the website of the Foundation for Peer to Peer Alternatives.Two of <mask>' papers are quoted by the community, but he has never written a true software paper. The papers were included in the book Principles of Urban Structure. The structure of pattern languages argues that patterns are a concept central to the design pattern movement and that they contain information about recurring design solutions and human activities. Techniques for linking observed patterns confirm a pattern language. "<mask> shows that a loose collection of patterns is not a system because it lacks connections, implying that the quality and nature of the connections between patterns is what determines whether a collection is a language or not." External and internal connections are identified when discussing pattern languages. The two forms of connection are important to the validation of a pattern language.<mask> suggests that the richness of connections between levels in a pattern language is a factor in determining a language's internal validity. The Information Architecture of Cities was co-authored by L. Andrew Coward. Cities are systems of informational architecture, in which high-level functionality separates the system into communicating modules. Information exchange in urban systems involves visual input from the environment, personal contact, telecommunications, and the

In order for journeys to have secondary, serendipitous information exchange, they need to travel. A person on the way to work sees advertisements, buys a newspaper, sees a friend and has a quick word.The virtue of cities is their information exchange. It's related to the generation of economic wealth and culture in cities. The useful notion of "fractal loading" was defined in "The Information Architecture of Cities" by <mask>. The model of Complexity was developed in collaboration with the Computer Scientist Allen Klinger. The idea of Herbert A. Simon is that what is important is the organization of complexity. In Book 1 of The Nature of Order, Christopher Alexander discussed <mask>' model and said it was important to show it to underscore the fact that living structure is susceptible to mathematical treatment. <mask> was a harsh critic of deconstructivism and its uncritical application of the philosophy of post-structuralism.According to his essay, the ideas of the French philosopher Jacques Derrida, applied in an uncritical way, effectively form an information "viruses" that dismantles logical thought and knowledge. Richard Dawkins introduced the meme model to explain the transmission of ideas. He provided a model that supports the idea that Derrida's philosophy is logically nihilistic. <mask> uses Dawkins' ideas, but still disagrees with Dawkins' view of religion as a meme in his book The God Delusion.

The Seleucid Empire was divided into two periods, the first from September 145 BC to July/August 138 BC, and the second from September 129 BC to his death in 125 BC. Between his two reigns, his brother ruled the Seleucid Empire. When he was a young boy, his father fought for control of the Seleucid throne. <mask>'s father, mother, and older brother were all killed when Balas won. Crete was where the young <mask> II was raised.He returned to Syria with a force of Cretan mercenaries, led by a man called Lasthenes, who was occupied with a revolt in Cilicia. The king of Egypt, Ptolemy VI Philometor, switched his support to the Ptolemaic after receiving an offer to formalize the occupation of Coele-Syria. Ptolemy sealed the alliance by divorcing his daughter Cleopatra Thea from Alexander. After surrendering to the Egyptian forces, Antioch offered the kingship to Ptolemy VI. He believed that Rome would not allow the unification of Egypt and Syria. Ptolemy promised to be a tutor in goodness and a guide to <mask> II. He intended for him to be a puppet ruler.Alexander's army was defeated at the Battle of the Oenoparas river. Alexander was killed in Arabia. Ptolemy died three days after the battle. With both his rival and his guardian gone, <mask> was able to assert his control over his kingdom. After expelling the Ptolemaic troops from Syria, <mask> II led his own forces all the way to the Egyptian border. New troubles arose after the riots. He demobilized a large portion of his army after expelling the Egyptian forces.The soldiers' wages were cut because of his financial situation. The

Demetrios was besiege by the Antiochenes in his palace. The Jewish troops burned down a large portion of the city. The city was hostile to him. The officials associated with Alexander Balas were eliminated by <mask> in order to secure his hold on power.One of these officials, the general, fled into Arabia, where he secured the infant son of Alexander Balas and proclaimed him king as Antiochus VI Dionysus. Many of the soldiers in <mask>' army defected to Diodotus because of his conduct or the cuts to their pay. In battle, he was defeated and lost control of the two cities. The numismatic evidence shows that the two places were lost in the early to late 14th century. He established himself in Seleucia Pieria after being unable to take the capital. The kingdom of Tryphon was created when Tryphon was made king after the death of Antiochus VI. Initially, Diodotus brought the leader of the Jews, Jonathan Apphus, onto his side, but this relationship broke down and he captured and executed Jonathan.Demetrios II was able to get the Jonathan's brother Simon Thassi to be a close ally. The grants were seen by the Hasmonean Jewish state as the moment when they achieved full independence. The king of Parthia took advantage of the conflict between Tryphon and <mask> to seize control of Susa and Elymais. The territories were reclaimed from the Parthians in 1388. He was taken prisoner in the summer of 138 BC after being defeated in the Iranian mountains. The control of Mesopotamia was retained by the Parthian people. Tryphon was briefly left

The king tried to escape from his exile on the shores of the Caspian Sea twice, once with the help of his friend Kallimander, who had gone to great lengths to rescue him. When the two friends were captured, the Parthian king rewarded them for their fidelity. The second time <mask> was captured, he was humiliated by being given a golden set of dice, suggesting that he was a restless child who needed toys. For political reasons, the Parthians treated <mask> II well. In 130 BC, Antiochus Sidetes was able to march against Parthia. After releasing his brother, he hoped that the two brothers would start a civil war.After his brother's release, Sidetes was defeated and never met him. After people were sent to pursue <mask>, he returned home to Syria and regained his throne and queen. The Seleucid kingdom was a shadow of its former self and had a hard time ruling. His first wife was Cleopatra Thea. He was unpopular because of memories of his humiliation at the hands of the Empire, and also because of resentment that he had lived while so many Seleucid soldiers and family members had died. An invasion from Sacaen nomads to his east was faced by Phraates II. The Parthians tried to use captured Greeks against the Sacaeans, but they mostly defected.Artabanus, the next Parthian king, had a short and violent reign in the east rather than in the west.

In 128 BC, a military expedition was mounted to save Cleopatra II. The Seleucid Empire was going through many problems when <mask> II made this foolish decision.If <mask> was unpopular, small forces had set off waves of defections before, so it might work. The Seleucids and Ptolemys needed to unite the remaining great Greek states in order to maintain their relevancy, given that Antigonid Macedonia had been crushed by Rome in the preceding decades.

In 1991 he earned his Master of Theology from the University of Thessalonica School of Theology, after studying Greek in Jerusalem. In 1991, <mask> received ordination as a deacon after tonsuring a monk with the name <mask>. He was elected to the Brotherhood of the Holy Sepulchre in 1991.<mask> became a priest at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in 1992. He was elevated to the rank of archimandrite a few days later and was in charge of the Arab section. He has lectured on Christianity at the Haifa Arab Teachers' College, as well as teaching in local schools. <mask> was granted a Doctor of Theology degree for his dedication to ministry in the Holy Land. The Greek Orthodox Patriarchate in Jerusalem appointed <mask> as their official spokesman in 2001. In 2005, after the dethronement of Irenaios and his replacement with Theophilos III, <mask> was made a bishop. Political positions and the response of the authorities <mask> gained renown for his high-profile political activism, his outspoken denunciation of the occupation, and his stress upon the importance of Palestinian identity - positions that have made him popular with Arabs and unpopular with the Israeli authorities.<mask> was arrested, held and questioned by the Israeli authorities more than once before he became an archbishop.

Everyone thinks there is a conflict between Arabs and Israelis.It is not a conflict between Arabs and Israelis. He called on the churches of the World Council of Churches to hold a special prayer for the Palestinians and stated that they should be able to live in their own state of Jerusalem. On 10 October 2001, <mask> participated with other Christian and Muslim leaders in a march from Jerusalem to the Bethlehem checkpoint to protest Israeli attacks on religious sites. "We intend to conduct special prayers inside the Church of the Nativity for the sake of our martyrs," said Theodosios. Theodosios sent a message to the United Nations Human Rights Commission calling for immediate and rapid intervention to save the Palestinian people from the terrible massacres being carried out by the occupation forces. The Commission should pressure Israel to lift its blockade of Palestinian towns and villages. On January 21, 2002, Israel requested that the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate take action against Archimandrite Atallah <mask> for his criticism of Israeli policy in the occupied Palestinian Territory.The Greek Orthodox Patriarchate in Jerusalem issued a statement condemning Israel's suspension of the Archimandrite for five hours after he returned from Lebanon. The Israeli government's demand that <mask> be fired from his position as church spokesman was considered a grave violation of its sovereignty by the patriarchy. After <mask> refused to sign a document condemning Palestinian operations, he was fired from his post as spokesman for the Greek Orthodox Church in Jerusalem. The Arab Orthodox community issued an urgent statement calling on the Greek Foreign Ministry to intervene, stressing that <mask> would remain the spokesman for the church with or without Greek acceptance. The Orthodox Christian communities in Palestine and Jordan were urged to boycott the Greek Orthodox leader. On August 22, 2002,

The site of his interrogation was visited by the media. <mask> used his Vatican passport to travel to Syria and Lebanon to attend religious conferences. Israeli police took <mask>' Israeli and Vatican-issued passports. <mask> claimed that his arrest was unwarranted since he had only expressed opposition to Israel's military occupation of areas claimed by the Palestinians. In an interview with The Palestine Chronicle in September 2002, <mask> said that his arrest was the first time that a Christian religious leader and official had ever been arrested in such a way. In the past three months, a defamation campaign was launched against me in a number of Israeli newspapers accusing me of supporting terrorism and violence and condoning suicide attacks.A chain of accusations meant to deliver a message to me and the rest of the Christian and Moslem religious leaders are what I have a strong conviction about. The Israeli authority launched a campaign to silence the voices of Jerusalem's nationalists who they claim support terrorism, violence, etc. The only party that is concerned is the Israeli authority. I cannot ignore the fact that there are people within the Church who do not agree with my stance on issues pertaining to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. The act of ousting me from my position as the official spokesman of the Church and the other measures taken are closely related to the pressure and blackmail exercised by Israel and I was told months ago that I was targeted. The Israeli wanted to hide the Christian aspect of the Palestinian issue. Israel tries to present the conflict as a Jewish-Moslem religious conflict, and it also tries to undermine the Christian position, and therefore it is irritated by the growing Christian voices raised on

There are more than a million Greeks in Syria and half a million in Lebanon. Israel does not have the right to prevent us from visiting Syria and Lebanon because they are not enemy countries. We meet with all political and religious officials when we visit these countries.We are open to everyone. Israel does not have the right to claim that we maintain relations with terrorist organizations. We refuse to accept the terms that Israel dictates; therefore, what Israel condemns may not be as such to us. The Legal Center for Arab Minority Rights in Israel sent a letter to the Attorney General's office demanding that they return the Israeli and Vatican passports that were taken from <mask>. The police summoned <mask> to collect his passport on the condition that he sign a statement promising not to make statements in support of terrorist actions or organizations and not to visit states hostile to Israel without the permission of the state. The police refused to return his passports. Adalah argued that the police decision to deny <mask>' passports had no basis in any law and did not serve any legitimate purpose, and that the document he was asked to sign also had no legal basis.The Attorney General sent a letter to the police legal advisor requesting his reply to Adalah's letter.

He graduated from New College, Oxford, in 1702. He was nominated for a law fellowship by the archbishop in 1708. He obtained a Doctor of Canon Law in 1719.<mask>'s first publication was a letter to Lord Lansdoune. This was followed by a poem on the last day of the year, dedicated to Queen Anne, and a poem on the execution of Lady Jane Grey and her husband. His own edition of his works does not include the fulsome style of the dedications. Philip, Duke of Wharton, who he accompanied to Dublin in 1717, came into contact with him about this time. Busiris and The Revenge were produced in 1719 and 1721, respectively. The most beautiful incident of the play was dedicated to Wharton. Wharton promised him two annuities of £100 each and a sum of £600 in consideration of his expenses as a candidate for parliamentary election at Cirencester.<mask> refused two livings in the gift of All Souls' College, Oxford, and sacrificed a life annuity for the sake of his son. <mask>, who pleaded his case before Lord Chancellor Hardwicke in 1740, gained the annuity but not the £600, because Wharton failed to discharge his obligations. <mask> published a series of satires on The Universal Passion.

The pension he received in 1726 was £200 a year.The king regarded his pension as an adequate settlement, even though he continued to seek preferment. <mask>, living in a time when patronage was slowly fading out, was notable for desperately seeking patronage for his poetry, his theatrical works, and his career in the church: he failed in each area. He never received the degree of patronage that he felt his work had earned, because he picked patrons whose fortunes were about to go down. "False praises are the whoredoms of the pen and prostitute fair fame to worthless men," he wrote. In 1728 <mask> became a royal chaplain, and in 1730 he obtained the college living.

Night-Thoughts was one of the few poems in which blank verse could not be changed for rhyme but with disadvantage. The poem was a poetic treatment of sublimity and had a profound influence on the young Edmund Burke, whose writings on the Sublime and the Beautiful were a pivotal turn in 18th-century aesthetic theory. Night-Thoughts was mentioned in the Undertones of War memoir as a source of comfort during time in the trenches. This work emerged from the darkness of the more recent past thanks to the discussion in Paul Fussell's The Great War and Modern Memory. The mention of <mask>'s poem gave students of English literature a glimpse of the early Romantics. A new edition of <mask>'s poem, Night-Thoughts (1750), which was already very popular, and which would become one of the most frequently-printed poems of the eighteenth century, was discussed in a letter by Samuel Richardson.The edition under discussion was the first in which Millar was involved, and it was advertised for sale in the General Advertiser.

It was reported that the author of Night-Thoughts was not the ornament to religion and morality which he afterwards became, and his friendship with the Duke of Wharton and Dodington did not improve his reputation. Alexander Pope said that he had a lot of a genius, though without common sense, so that he was liable to get into bombast.

His father was Sir <mask>s and his mother was Cecily de Valoignes. He had a younger brother who was an unpopular viceroy. His attitude to the Irish is said to have been influenced by his wife. He had a livery of his father's Suffolk lands.He was knighted in 1326 and served on a commission of the peace in the eastern counties in 1327. He attended Edward III's journey to Amiens in May and June of 1329. On 1 May 1330, he received a grant for the life of Orford Castle, which had previously been held by his father, after he was employed on state affairs. He was summoned to fight against the king's rebels on July 28. He was associated with William de Montacute in the attack on Mortimer. He received a special pardon for the murder of Sir Hugh de Turplington and Richard de Monmouth after he took part in the capture of Mortimer. He was given the manors of Cawston and Fakenham in Norfolk, as well as some houses in Cripplegate that belonged to Mortimer's associate, John Maltravers.He was summoned to parliament as a baron. He was one of Edward III's most trusted warriors, counsellors, and diplomats. The Earl of Suffolk was given the power to treat with the Scots.

Bothwell Castle was taken back by the Scots during his absence in parliament.Suffolk was sent to treat for peace or a truce with the French on October 3, 1337. Further powers were given to them to deal with Louis IV, Holy Roman Emperor and other allies, and on 7 October they were also commissioned to treat David Bruce, then stay in France, and be accredited to the two cardinals sent by the pope to make an Anglo- French reconciliation. On 1 July of next year, <mask> left England along with the two cardinals who were sent to France to treat for peace. He and the <mask> of Derby held a joint command in the army that prepared to fight a major battle at Buironfosse, after he attended the king in Brabant. He was appointed joint ambassador to Louis I, Count of Flanders and the Flemish estates on 15 November of the same year. After Edward's return to England, Suffolk stayed behind with Salisbury. They attacked the French near Lille, pursued the enemy into the town, were made prisoners, and were sent to Paris.It was said that Philip VI of France wanted to kill them and they were spared only by the intervention of John of Bohemia. The truce of 25 September 1340 provided for the release of all prisoners, but only after a heavy ransom was paid by Edward III. At great jousts in London, he participated in a tournament in the spring of 1343. He was a member of Edward's Round Table at Windsor and fought in a tournament at Hertford.

In his declining years Suffolk devoted himself to the removal of Leiston Abbey, near Saxmundham, to a new site further inland.In 1363 it was moved to a new home. Suffolk passed away on 4 November 1369. His wife was also buried in the church of Campsey Priory, beneath the arch between the chapel of St Nicholas and the high altar.

texts: Mountain Air for piano and orchestra is one of his best known pieces, as is Istar, a symphonic poem in the form of a set of variations in which the theme appears only at the end. The symphonies in B, Jour d'été  la montagne, and Souvenirs are among d'Indy's other works. According to The Times, his music has a strong influence on many of his works, with the shapes of his tunes, that of Wagner in their development, and that of Berlioz in their orchestra. The orchestral works of D'Indy are more interesting than his chamber works. He wrote a number of operas, including Fervaal and L'tranger.The Paris Opéra hosted the premiere of Le Légende de Saint Christophe on June 6, 1920. D'Indy made his own version of Monteverdi's opera L'incoronazione di Poppea. His musical writings include the three-volume Cours de composition musicale. The Times said that his study of the former was one of the most vivid and individual of modern French biographies, and the other showed the close relationship he had with that master. The asteroid 11530 d'Indy was discovered in 1992, and the private music college is named after the composer.

He helped to negotiate the sale of the chain in 1988 to the Saison Group in a deal that he later described as "the deal of the decade".

Pillsbury's brands, which they believed held under-exploited potential for international growth, were attractive to Grand Met. Mark Maremont accused Pillsbury of being "lax" in exploiting Hagen-Dazs' potential overseas.Pillsbury had lost its way, but we thought it had powerful brands. We felt we could use its brands. They did a number of things to make the number, make the number. You have to be responsible for cost reduction. The tree that bears fruit in the future will be the seed you protect today.

While our competitors were still trying to get their act together, we moved in on the Seagram deal and forced their hand very quickly. The bargain of the century is what we paid. At the end of the second year, it was at economic profit break even and the total price was $8.1 billion.

Suffolk's fall began in 1615. <mask>'s daughter was implicated in the poisoning of Sir <mask> because she was close to James. James accused Suffolk of being involved in trying to suppress the investigation of the crime. Suffolk made a mistake by grooming another handsome young man to succeed him in James's favor. This was completely unsuccessful and only provoked a counteroffensive by the Marquess of Buckingham. Suffolk's finances were always in bad shape.Despite some financial help from Queen Elizabeth, his early privateering and naval ventures nearly bankrupted him. The situation was somewhat alleviated by his preferment at court, which gave him board and lodging and valuable emoluments, and the regrant of some of the sequestered estates of his father.
