	Niagara Falls - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Niagara Falls is renowned for its beauty, and is both a valuable source of hydroelectric power and a challenging project for environmental preservation.
		The Falls drop about 170 feet (52 m), although the American Falls have a clear drop of only 70 feet (21 m) before reaching a jumble of fallen rocks which were deposited by a massive rock slide in 1954.
		The story of Niagara Falls in the 20th century is largely that of efforts to harness the energy of the Falls for hydroelectric power and to control the rampant development on both the American and Canadian sides which threatened the area's natural beauty.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Scholasticism
		With Roscelin, who appeared about the middle of the eleventh century, the note of Rationalism is very distinctly sounded, and the first rumbling is heard of the inevitable reaction, the voice of Christian mysticism uttering its note of warning, and condemning the excess into which Rationalism had fallen.
		John Scotus Eriugena, in the ninth century, by his doctrine that all truth is a theophany, or showing forth of God, tried to elevate philosophy to the rank of theology, and identify the two in a species of theosophy.
		In their discussion of the problems of political philosophy the philosophers of the thirteenth century while not discarding the theological views of St. Augustine contained in "The City of God", laid a new foundation for the study of political organizations by introducing Aristotle's scientific definition of the origin and purpose of civil society.

	Falls Incline History - Niagara Parks, Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada
		Four incline railways were also in operation that year, and by the turn of the century the trolleys were running to, or near, all of them as they made their circuit along both sides of the Niagara River.
		A measure of the significance attained by the Horseshoe Falls Incline in its first 6½ seasons of operation was the economic loss caused by its premature closure in 1973.
		As the Falls Incline's thirtieth season approached, it was time for a third comprehensive overhaul to be performed on its cars, the last having been done in the winter of 1981.

	Falls the Shadow - Sharon Kay Penman
		Falls the Shadow is the story of Henry III, cursed with the Plantagenet temper but lacking the Plantagenet will: faithful son of the Church, faithless liege lord; father of England's most famous warrior-king, wretched ruler of a rebellious realm.
		And Falls the Shadow, finally, is the story of Simon de Montfort, youngest son of an influential French family, entitled to inherit neither land nor titles -- who talked his way into an earldom and marriage with the King's sister.
		Falls the Shadow is a tapestry drenched in the color of its times, rich in drama and human foible.

	Elk Falls, KS
		Elk Falls is located in southern Elk County [EK] between the Elk River and Wildcat Creek. The town's site at the falls of the Elk is as pretty as any in Kansas, but the natural beauty does not explain all of the fascination outsiders have for the town:
		The delights of Elk Falls are subtle and often elusive. Many folks are here and gone before Elk Falls has a chance to seep into their consciousness. Slow down. Feel the soothing tranquility of the Falls. Sit a spell. Relax a bit. Savor every sight, every sound. Breathe deep. Visit with a new friend.
		If you too fall in love with the place, the citizens will be happy (for a small fee) to make you an honorary citizen as long as you promise NOT to move there.

	BBC - Cult - Classic TV - Century Falls (1991)
		It's also gloriously filmed - the empty streets of Century itself look as beautiful as they do bleak - and some of the simple locations are hauntingly shot (as the cast fade seamlessly between two versions of the same set - one a burnt-out ruin, the other a gloomy temple).
		Century Falls is quite frankly just too good for kids.
		While Dark Season seems laboured and sometimes silly, this slice of 90s telefantasy subtly handles meaty subjects as infant death, the loneliness of teenage years and the power of hope - told in a well-paced, tension-packed six episodes all featuring fine performances and direction.
