AntiCapitalist Convergences ACC are organizations which sprang up in North America in the late 1990s and early 2000s as forms of coordinating activities by the growing social justice , anarchist , and environmentalist anti capitalism anti capitalists . Many of the ACCs were set up in anticipation of or as a result of a major protest. ref name imageproblem Generally, AntiCapitalist Convergences were assembled as umbrella organisations, to coordinate different groups and struggles. However, many have become groups unto themselves. In the wake of the WTO Ministerial Conference of 1999 protest activity Battle of Seattle and a similar resurgence of anticapitalist protest and organising, activists in cities such as Seattle Washington, D.C. and Chicago formed Convergences to carry out protests more effectively and to ensure that anticapitalist organising would continue after major demonstrations had left the city. The Convergences were also billed as a counterweight to more mainstream coalitions and trade unions who radicals claimed dominated protests. By far the most successful of the AntiCapitalist Convergences has been the one, based in Montreal, best known by its French acronym CLAC Convergence des Luttes Anti Capitalistes . Originally formed to coordinate protests at the Quebec City Summit of the Americas in April, 2001, it continued to operate afterwards, and provided the engine for the Take the Capital protests the following year. It has also proven strong within its own community, launched anti gentrification campaigns, and worked to help non status immigrants. As quickly as many ACCs sprung up, most of them have fallen apart. Montreal Seattle Colorado Chicago New York City and Washington, D.C., have all seen their ACCs collapse. However, there are now ACCs active overseas in the Philippines and Japan and efforts are under way to revive an anticapitalist umbrella ... 28 september 2006 Category Activism Category Anti capitalism Category Anarchist organizations Category ... more details

At a meeting in Rathmines , Murray advocated a capitalist republic for Ireland, taking what commentators have described as a stages approach in moving from national freedom towards a socialist state. Murray advocated first the achievement of national freedom, to form a capitalist republic, followed by a transition from a capitalist republic to a socialist republic. Other Republicans, such as Gilmore and O Donnell, sought the same goal by reversing the stages, arguing that the uprooting of capitalism through struggle will consequently lead to national independence.

Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 For convergence zones of sonars, see Sonar Sound propagation . Convergence zone usually refers to a region in the atmosphere where two prevailing flows meet and interact, usually resulting in distinctive weather conditions. An example of a convergence zone is the Intertropical Convergence Zone ITCZ , a low pressure area which girdles the Earth at the Equator . Another example is the South Pacific convergence zone that extends from the western Pacific Ocean toward French Polynesia . A smaller example of a convergence zone occurs in the Puget Sound region, known as the Puget Sound Convergence Zone . This happens when winds in the upper atmosphere are split by the Olympic Mountains . The winds then converge beyond the mountains, producing convection uplift that results in the development of clouds and even stormy weather.

The Convergence of the Twain Lines on the loss of the Titanic is a poem by Thomas Hardy , published in 1915. The poem describes the sinking of the ocean liner RMS Titanic Titanic on 15 April 1912. Convergence consists of eleven stanzas I to XI of three lines each, following the Tercet AAA rhyme pattern. Hardy was asked to write a poem to be read at a charity concert to raise funds in aid of the Sinking of the Titanic the tragedy disaster fund. It was first published as part of the souvenir programe for that event. One interpretation holds that Hardy s controversial poem contrasts the materialism and hubris of mankind with the integrity and beauty of nature.
