The Polish Round Table Talks took place in Warsaw, Poland from February 6 to April 4, 1989. The government initiated the discussion with the banned trade union Solidarność and other opposition groups in an attempt to defuse growing social unrest. Following the factory strikes of the early 1980s and the subsequent formation of the (then still underground) Solidarity movement under the leadership of Lech Wałęsa the political situation in Poland started relaxing somewhat. Despite an attempt by the government to crackdown on the [anti ...

Four broadcasters captured the moment for baseball fans in the New York City area and nationwide. On the NBC national television telecast, Ernie Harwell shouted "It's gone!" almost at the moment Thomson's bat struck Branca's pitch. Meanwhile, the Dodgers' radio voice, Red Barber of WMGM-AM, straightforwardly said, "It's in there for the pennant." Russ Hodges, broadcasting the game on WMCA-AM radio for Giants fans, seemed perhaps the least likely man to immortalize the play; the broadcast was not national and Hodges was considered calm ...

Afterward, the legendary sportswriter Red Smith penned the following recap: "Now it is done. Now the story ends. And there is no way to tell it. The art of fiction is dead. Reality has strangled invention. Only the utterly impossible, the inexpressibly fantastic, can ever be plausible again." The official attendance of the third game was 34,320, a shockingly low number considering the importance of the game, the location of the opposing team (just a 45-minute subway ride from the Polo Grounds), and the bitte ...

The battle on July 2 was not as bloody as some Civil War battles. Of the 2,996 Union troops engaged, there were 565 casualties (134 killed, 402 wounded, 29 missing); Confederate losses of 4,864 engaged were 1,185 (279, 868, 219). Historians disagree as to the impact of this particular engagement on the overall outcome of the Battle of Gettysburg, while agreeing that the fighting here and in the Devil's Den was extremely fierce and soldiers on both sides fought valiantly. The most popular view is that the left flank of the Union army w ...

The tiebreaker (not a playoff but an extension of the regular season - game statistics counted in the season records) had to be played because both the Giants and the crosstown rival Dodgers finished the regular season with identical 96-58 records. Brooklyn held a massive 13 1/2-game lead on the Giants on August 11, but the Giants turned around and won their next 16 games. While Brooklyn played the rest of the season at a respectable 26-22 clip, New York put together a streak almost unequaled in baseball history, winning 37 of the last 44 ga ...

Around 4 p.m. on July 2, Confederate Lieutenant General James Longstreet's First Corps began an attack ordered by General Robert E. Lee that was intended to drive northeast up the Emmitsburg Road in the direction of Cemetery Hill, rolling up the Union left flank. Major General John Bell Hood's division was assigned to attack up the eastern side of the road, Maj. Gen. Lafayette McLaws's division the western side. Hood's division stepped off first, but instead of guiding on the road, elements began to swing directly to the east in the directio ...

The near-close near-back rounded vowel is a type of vowel sound, used in some spoken languages. The symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is ʊ. This derives from a small capital U; although officially called a small Latin letter upsilon, it bears little resemblance to the Greek upsilon and is informally called "horseshoe u" instead. Some languages may have a near-close near-back unrounded vowel (see below). However, no language is known to contrast ...

There are two types of vowel rounding: endolabial, or compressed, and exolabial, or protruded. The northern Iroquoian languages have no labial consonants. They do have /w/, /gʷ/, and /kʷ/, but these do not involve noticeable rounding (protrusion) of the lips. It may be that they are purely velar [ɰ, gᶭ, kᶭ], but it is also possible that they are compressed. It is not known how this might ...
