The Five Orange Pips

ACD likes a shipwreck, doesn't he?

I will leave discussions about the Ku Klux Klan to those with more knowledge on the subject.

A mendicant is someone who generally takes a vow of poverty and relies on charity to survive - such as a wandering preacher. In Christianity, this was often done in deliberate imitation of the Apostles, who were told to rely on others (and by extension God) for their needs. Mendicants having a luxurious club would be a tad hypocritical.

We have two barques referenced here. To repeat my comment from "The Gloria Scott": a bark - or barque - is a type of sailing ship with three or more masts - the first two masts have square sails, the one at the back had them aligned with the hull. They were fast ships that needed a relatively small crew.

The UK's position on the Gulf Stream may keep the place from getting very cold in winter, but it also leaves us open to big storms.

Pince-nez glasses were very popular in this time period.

The area around Horsham does indeed have pretty clay-ey soil that's good for growing crops.

Horsham is a market and commuter town 31 miles from London.

Cheating at cards was apparently the worst thing a gentleman could do. In Ian Fleming's novels, two of the villains are immediately clearly wrong-uns as they're rich guys who feel the need to cheat.

Being "sent to Coventry" is a British expression for being ostracised. Joseph appears to have sent himself to the West Midlands town.

Pondicherry, now called Puducherry, was in fact a French enclave on the south-eastern coast of India and was not in fact transferred to Indian control until 1954.

"London E." was one of the postal divisions of the city at the time - it remains as the E postcode area, split into 22 districts, including two specially for Natwest and News International. Yep, Murdoch has his own postcode.

PC Cook is rather off his normal beat. H Division covered Whitechapel and had, a few years prior to this story coming out, failed to catch Jack the Ripper.

The Embankment here refers to the Victoria Embankment, a road and pedestrian avenue built by the river as part of a land reclamation project earlier in the century. It had the side effect of permanently ending any hope of Frost Fairs - the river now flows too fast to freeze.

I believe this story takes place pretty much entirely in Baker Street.

Lloyd's refers to Lloyd's of London, a very long running maritime insurance marketplace, who also underwrite a bunch of other insurance policies, including film stars' legs. They keep comprehensive records of ship movements for this purposes.

Gravesend is a town in Kent near what is now the M25 and would be a good place to spot a ship before the Thames Estuary widens out - beyond that, you might easily miss a ship in poor visibility from the few communities beyond it.

The transatlantic telegraph cables were firmly in operation by this point. Their successor cables form the backbone of the modern Internet.

Mail was generally transported on the fastest ships i.e. the ocean liners; so you'd be talking around a week to cross the Atlantic at this point. A sailing ship would be looking at three times as long.

Sliced bread - i.e. bread that came pre-sliced when you bought it - was not a thing until 1928.

Please note that those who wish to post orange pips to the United States today will require a permit from the US Department of Agriculture.

[ad_1] A photograph of the BCCI logo. Source (X)   Day 3 of Round 4 in the Ranji Trophy produced thrilling action, with gripping contests across the country. Odisha struggled against Mumbai. They were bowled out for 285 in the first innings, despite a knock of 102 from Sandeep Pattnaik. Shams Mulani claimed 6/115. After making 602/4 in their only innings, Mumbai then reduced the visitors to 126/5, to stay on course for an innings win. Tripura’s solid batting display, taking them to 482/7, has put Baroda under pressure. Having made 235 in the first innings, Baroda will have to bat well on the last day to avoid defeat. They were 37/0 at stumps. Tripura had denied Mumbai an outright win in the previous round. A day earlier, Dhruv Shorey had shone for Vidarbha with a spectacular century. The new day belonged to Yash Rathod, whose stunning 128 put Himachal Pradesh on the back foot. Himachal trail by 217, sitting at 51/2, and will face intense pressure to shift the momentum. Rajasthan staged a strong comeback against Hyderabad, thanks to standout innings from Mahipal Lomror and Shubham Garhwal, who scored 111 and 108, respectively. Despite that, at 374/8, Rajasthan didn’t look like surpassing Hyderabad’s 410. The tail took them to 425. In the Delhi-Chandigarh match, the latter hold the advantage, needing 157 more to win with both openers at the crease. Round 4 has seen several double centuries, and Aarya Desai added to the list with a knock of 200 for Gujarat. His team trails Puducherry by just two runs. Meanwhile, Railways responded positively to Chhattisgarh’s 500, led by Suraj Ahuja’s 135 and Vivek Singh’s 86. Railways, however, still trail by 177, with seven wickets in hand. In the Andhra-Uttarakhand clash, the former face a challenging task, needing 313 more for victory. They have already lost a wicket with just eight runs on the board. For Saurashtra, Harvik Desai’s 155 pushed his side to 386, with Jharkhand responding with 74/1. Bihar are struggling in response to Madhya Pradesh’s massive 616, closing Day 3 at 331/8. 5@5: As was known, India not traveling to Pakistan for Champions Trophy! https://t.co/ykHdjzEsRl — RevSportz Global (@RevSportzGlobal) November 8, 2024   For more sports content: RevSportz The post Mumbai sniff big win, Baroda under pressure against Tripura appeared first on Sports News Portal | Latest Sports Articles | Revsports.

Understanding the process and requirements for admission is essential to make the right decisions. In this guide, we will discuss everything you need to know about MD/MS Admission in India, including eligibility, entrance exams, top colleges, and the benefits of pursuing these programs.

What is MD/MS?

MD (Doctor of Medicine) and MS (Master of Surgery) are postgraduate courses that medical graduates pursue after completing their MBBS degree. MD is a program focused on non-surgical fields, such as internal medicine, pediatrics, or dermatology, while MS is a surgical program that trains students in surgical specializations like general surgery, orthopedics, or gynecology. Both degrees are highly respected and open up opportunities for a rewarding medical career.

Eligibility Criteria for MD/MS Admission in India

To apply for MD/MS Admission in India, you must meet certain eligibility requirements. Here are the key points:

Educational Qualification: You must have an MBBS degree from a recognized medical college or university. It is mandatory to complete your internship before starting the MD or MS program.

Entrance Exam: Admission is based on the scores obtained in national or state-level entrance exams.

Registration: Candidates must be registered with the Medical Council of India (MCI) or the respective State Medical Council (SMC).

Popular Entrance Exams for MD/MS Admission

The most crucial step for MD/MS Admission in India is clearing the entrance exams. There are several exams that students can take, and they are highly competitive. Here are the top entrance exams:

[ad_1] GG News Bureau Srinagar, 22nd Oct. Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha said that a government taking appropriate steps to meet the expectations of its citizens would receive the full support of the LG’s office. In an interview with PTI, Sinha confirmed that local bodies’ elections in the Union Territory would be conducted once the backward classes commission submits its report regarding the number of reserved seats for Other Backward Classes (OBCs), along with considerations of weather conditions and security availability. Sinha emphasized, “The government that takes appropriate steps to meet the expectations of the people, I assure them, the LG’s office will be ready to give full support to it.” He also addressed questions about the working arrangement between the LG’s office and the Chief Minister, stating that any elected government aims to fulfill the public’s expectations. In response to the Congress’s opposition and its petition against the nomination of five MLAs to the Jammu and Kashmir assembly, Sinha reiterated the democratic right to oppose any actions. He referred to historical precedents, recalling that during the formation of the Puducherry Assembly, it was proposed to fill seats through nominations, with 10 percent of the members being nominated. Sinha noted that the provisions of the Jammu and Kashmir Reorganisation Act, 2019, allow the LG to nominate five MLAs to the assembly, a measure opposed by several parties, including the National Conference (NC), Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), and Congress. He mentioned that panchayat elections should have occurred earlier, but the administration is currently waiting for the OBC reservations report. “If the elections had been held without this (report), the court would have stopped them. Therefore, we had to go to Parliament to amend this,” Sinha explained, asserting that preparations for the polls are in place. The Jammu and Kashmir government has established a commission to recommend the number of reserved seats for OBCs in local bodies, with local elections expected to follow soon after the commission’s findings are submitted.
