	NATURE OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS
		This is a customary view: international relations is seen as a realm of violence, of war, in contrast to state-societies which are perceived peaceful, where the use of violence is abnormal and illegitimate.
		Many believe international relations to be in a state of nature: the relations between states are seen as though states were so many people living in a condition of anarchy, where each preys on the other and life is brutish and short.
		International politics as a branch of political science has therefore assumed: (a) sovereign, territorial states with conflicting policies exist in contact with one another, (b) the major value of each is its own continuous, independent, existence, (c) the only reliable means available to maintain this value is self-help supported by military power and alliances.

	Hops Frequently Asked Questions - Midwest Homebrewing and Winemking Supplies
		Apart from balancing the sweetness of the malt extract in beer through the contribution of bitterness, hops impart aroma and flavor, reduce the surface tension during the boiling stage, assist in forming a yeast head during ale fermentation and inhibit the growth of bacteria in wort and beer.
		Homebrew Bitterness Units equals the percent alpha acid of hops multiplied by the quantity in ounces of hops used.
		One Bitterness Unit is equal to 1 milligram of isomerized alpha acid in 1 liter of wort or beer or 1 part per million isomerized alpha acid.

	About Beer
		On this scale, a 6% beer is noticeably different, and a 7% beer is plainly strong, 8% is very powerful, and 9% puts you in the after dinner sipping beer range.
		All hop varieties are rated for bitterness by a measurement primarily of their alpha acids and secondarily of beta acids (which have only one ninth the bittering effect).
		The resins in the cone of the hop flower give the brewer the bitterness necessary to balance the sweetness of the malt, act as a natural preservative, provide a wonderful floral aroma, and the hops may even serve as a filter when the wort is run off out of the kettle.

	Sierra Leone: 1998 - a year of atrocities against civilians - Amnesty International (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Negotiations by the international community with the AFRC faltered, a global economic embargo was imposed and military intervention to restore the government of President Kabbah was seriously considered by countries in the region if dialogue and sanctions failed.
		The purpose of the meeting was to focus international attention on the situation in Sierra Leone and the government's initiatives aimed at resolving the conflict, restoring secure conditions and effective administration throughout the country.
		Amnesty International urged the AFRC to repeal this legislation and to ensure that all death sentences were commuted and that no further executions took place.

	BT - Recipe Formulation Calculations for Brewers
		Here I present a systematic approach to recipe formulation that starts with the desired values of original gravity, bitterness, and color, along with the relative proportions of the various malts, adjuncts, and hops to be used, from which the brewer can calculate the specific quantities of the ingredients needed for a given batch size.
		In this article, the beer's strength is estimated by the original specific gravity (OG) of the wort, the bitterness of the finished beer is measured in International Bitterness Units (IBUs or mg/L of isomerized a-acids), and its color is measured in degrees Lovibond (°L).
		First find the color resulting from a unit weight of the mixture of malts and adjuncts used in a unit volume of beer, then adjust this value to the actual weight of the ingredients and the actual volume of beer to be made.

	Hops
		Hops first became widely used as an ingredient in beer because in addition to adding flavour, it is also a natural preservative and was found to be very effective at preventing beer from souring and so greatly extended its keeping power.
		Today almost all commercially brewed beer uses hops and all have the distinctive hops taste, but the degree of bitterness varies greatly from one brew to another depending on the amount of hops used in the beer and also the variety of the hops, with particular hops varieties becoming associated with particular styles of beer.
		There is even an international scale now to measure the bitterness of different beers, called the International Bitterness Units (IBU) scale.

		Since this is a tutorial, I’m going to scale down the recipes from the homebrewer’s standard 5-gallon batch size to a more manageable 2 gallons, which will yield just short of a case of beer, and won’t require you to purchase a whole new kit of equipment.
		Alpha acids are the bittering compounds that turn into the bitter flavor in beer once they have been boiled together with the malt sugars for a period of time.
		IBUs (International Bitterness Units) are a measure of how much hop bitterness is in your beer, calculated from the amount of alpha acids in your hops, and how long they’ve been boiled.

	Iraqi Troops May Resist In Bitterly Desperate Fight
		NOW that the United States and Iraq seem set on a collision course, the fate of Saddam Husseinâs Baâathist regime will be determined by how well the Iraqi army performs.
		Heavy casualties, poor logistics, meagre provisions, operational mismanagement, defeat and, finally, a disorganised withdrawal augmented the bitterness among the units stationed in the south.
		If key Iraqi units are not won over or a coup successfully encouraged, the main objective will not be attainable except by full-scale invasion and occupation.
