 |  |  | 1983 - April: Encyclopedia II - Mount Etna - 1669 eruptionOver the last 2000 years, activity at Etna has been generally effusive, with occasional explosive eruptions from the summit. Its most destructive eruption during this time occurred in March 1669, when an estimated 830,000,000 m³ of lava was ejected. The eruption was preceded by two months of increasingly powerful earthquakes centred on the southern slopes of the mountain, which eventually encouraged most villagers there to abandon their homes. On 11 March, a 9 km-long fissure opened up on the southern flank of the mountain, stretching ...

 |  |  | 1983 - April: QUAOAR by sign A generational indicator (and a look at the Indigos)
The newly-discovered planet, Quaoar, is an astrological key to identifying and understanding generational influences, particularly the Indigo children for whom Quaoar is a key defining astrological planet. Like the other outer planets (Uranus, Neptune, Pluto), astrological interpretation of Quaoar by zodiac sign will be a generational indicator rather than a personal energy in the natal chart. In so doing, Quaoar begins by providing a fascinating rear-view mirror to look at 20th Century generations.

 |  |  | 1983 - April: Encyclopedia II - Harold Wilson - In ParliamentAs the War drew to an end, he began searching for a seat to fight at the impending general election. Eventually he was selected for Ormskirk, which was then held by Stephen King-Hall. Wilson accidentally agreed to be adopted as the candidate immediately rather than delay until the election was called, and was therefore compelled to resign from the Civil Service. He used the time in between to write A New Deal for Coal which used his wartime experience to argue for nationalisation of the ...

 |  |  | 1983 - April: Encyclopedia II - Badfinger - Warner BrothersMerely six weeks after the Ass sessions were completed, Badfinger entered the studio to begin recording the material for their first Warner Brothers release, Badfinger. Neither Ass nor Badfinger were well-received by music critics, but owing to Badfinger's overwork, their lackluster quality can perhaps be understood in context. Badfinger and its two accompanying singles, "Love Is Easy" and "I Miss You," also did not reach chart positions. Badfinger did manage to consolidate some U.S. fan support in 1 ...

 |  |  | 1983 - April: Encyclopedia II - Iran-Iraq War - War of the CitiesToward the end of the war, the land conflict regressed into stalemate. Both Iraq and Iran lacked sufficient self-propelled artillery to support their respective armored forces in assaults. This was made even more important because neither side had the air force capability to support ground forces.
When the relatively professional Iraqi armed force advance was halted by the sheer size and committment of Iranian infantry and the Iranian infantry moved to advance itself; it faced the terrible prospect that the Iraqis had large numbers of ...

Her son, Sir Mark Thatcher, has been dogged by a series of controversies from 1982 when he went missing in the Sahara Desert to January 2005 when he was fined three million rand and received a four-year suspended jail sentence in South Africa over funding an aircraft intended for use in a planned coup d'etat in Equatorial Guinea.
Her daughter, the journalist and commentator Hon. Carol Thatcher, won the fifth series of the British realit ...
