Description Copied from Pick operating system . jBASE was released in 1991 by a small company in the UK, then named James Anthony Consultants, JAC , later to become jBASE Software Limited. Formed March 6, 1989 by Martin James Idle and Clive Anthony Ketteridge, the company grew globally throughout the 1990s. On December 1, 1999, jBASE Software Limited and its subsidiaries were acquired 100 by the Temenos Group AG, a Switzerland based banking software house. jBASE was originally written by former Microdata Corporation Microdata McDonnell Douglas engineers. Although it supported the MultiValue data model by default, jBASE was designed to allow the application data to reside in any database, not just its own. jBASE also compiles applications to native machine code form, rather than to intermediary byte code. jBASE is used in thousands of applications globally, including GLOBUS and T24 banking applications from Temenos . In 2002, Mpower1 International forged a partnership with Temenos and attained the worldwide support, distribution and existing client rights of the full jBASE product set with the exception of Temenos own application sales. The UK based business empowerment company embarked on a major investment program by reorganizing jBASE sales and support personnel into an independent sales, marketing and support channel for jBASE customers and partners world wide. The new 100 Mpower1 owned subsidiary, jBASE International, became the exclusive distributor of the jBASE software with the exception of Temenos application software. jBASE International is sister company to BlueFinity International under the Mpower1 Group umbrella.

Notability date March 2011 Primary sources date March 2011 Temenos Academy is a teaching organisation in London dedicated to creative spirituality . Its origin was in 1980, when the Temenos Review was launched by Kathleen Raine , Keith Critchlow , Brian Keeble and Philip Sherrard to publish creative work which acknowledged spirituality as a prime need for humanity. Ten years later the Academy was founded to extend the project through lectures and study groups. It was accommodated initially in The Prince of Wales s Institute of Architecture in Regents Park . Since the closure of the Institute, the Academy now holds meetings in different venues in London. The Charles, Prince of Wales Prince of Wales is patron of the Academy. He said quote The work of Temenos could not be more important. Its commitment to fostering a wider awareness of the great spiritual traditions we have inherited from the past is not a distraction from the concerns of every day life. These traditions, which form the basis of mankind s most civilised values and have been handed down to us over many centuries, are not just part of our inner religious life. They have an intensely practical relevance to the creation of real beauty in the arts, to an architecture which brings harmony and inspiration to people s lives and to the development within the individual of a sense of balance which is, to my mind, the hallmark of a civilised person.

Context date October 2011 coord 38.824210 N 9.472916 W display title The Archaeological Site of Alto da Vigia is located in the Portugal Portuguese municipality of Sintra , near Praia das Ma s . The oldest accounts of a Ancient Rome Roman sanctuary to the Sun, Moon and Imperial cult ancient Rome Imperial cult , by the mouth of the river of Colares river Colares dates back to the 16th century. It was a circular temenos , an open air religious space. Recent archaeological intervention confirmed the existence the sanctuary from the 2nd 3rd century AD and also a watchtower dating back to the early 16th century AD. The importance of the sanctuary is made evident from the fact that the inscriptions discovered, in honour of the health of the Emperor and the eternity of the Roman Empire , are dedicated by holders of high imperial positions, notably governors of Lusitania or legates of the Emperor, although sometimes through the senate of Olisipo , municipality whose territory included this particular area. The inscriptions were dedicated by Sextus Tigidius Perennis , governor of Lusitania, to the Soli et Lunae in 185 AD between 200 and 209 by Junius Celanius , a governor, to the Soli aeterno Lunae and by Caius Julius Celsus , procurator province Lusitaniae in the late 2nd century. Surprisingly, an important Islamic settlement, whose existence was totally unknown, was equally found, being probably connected to the name Alconchel al concilium . Its architecture reveals it was a ribat convent , with several rooms uncovered so far, one of which includes a mirhab turned to the southeast, in the direction of Mecca . A necropolis from the same epoch 12th century was also found.

Caranus or Karanus Ancient Greek Greek lang grc , 808 778 BC was the first king of ancient Macedon according to later traditions. According to Herodotus the first king was Perdiccas I of Macedon Perdicas . King Karanus is first reported by Theopompus . ref Theopompus the Historian Page 270 By Gordon Spencer Shrimpton ISBN 0773508376 ref FGrH, No. 115, Frag. 393 Image KAranus.png thumb right 200px Caranus way is labeled by the blue colour Myth According to Greek myth, Caranus was son of Temenus , king of Argos , who in turn was a Heracleidae Heraclid . Temenus, along with Cresphontes and Aristodemus were the three Dorians Doric leaders who invaded the Mycenaean Greece Mycenean Peloponnese region. Then they proceeded to divide the conquered territories between them. Cresphontes was given Messenia and Sparta Aristodemus took Laconia and finally Temenos was given Argos . Following the death of Temenos, the Princes argued about who should be king. One of them, Pheidon , defeated his brothers in battle and took over as kingship. Karanos then, decided to find another kingdom of his own, where he could be King. First, however he went to the Oracle of Delphi to ask Pythia s advice. You should find your kingdom there, where you will find plenty of game and domestic animals, was her advice. Thus Karanos and his entourage moved to the North, in search of suitable land to establish his new kingdom. Finally, he discovered a green valley, with a lot of game and goats, whereupon he thought that the prophecy of Pythia has been fulfilled. Thus he built a city there, which he named Aegae Aigai lang el , present day Vergina , a site of substantial archaeological activity, as numerous important findings have been unearthed.
