Title: In the Beginning (Circa 1960)
Passage: In the Beginning (Circa 1960) is the first consolidated American packaging of the 1962 German album by Tony Sheridan and The Beatles (credited as The Beat Brothers), called "My Bonnie". "In the Beginning (Circa 1960)" was released by Polydor Records in 1970 (catalogue number 24-4504.) It was recorded in Hamburg in 1961. This album was originally released as "The Beatles' First" in Germany in 1964 and in the United Kingdom in 1967. Previous American releases of this material in LP form was split in 1964 between MGM Records and Atco Records. Polydor (which eventually absorbed MGM) established its United States branch in 1969 which explains why this package was released much later in The Beatles' history. Most of the tracks feature vocals by Sheridan. The album was released only four days before "Let It Be", The Beatles' final studio album. This is therefore the last Beatles compilation album released whilst the band were still releasing studio albums. All subsequent releases of SheridanBeatlesBeat Brothers material are simply repackages of the same tracks. This album is available in a slightly altered CD by Polydor without the inaccurate "(Circa 1960)" subtitle and with both parts of "Ya Ya". Only part one of that track was released on this LP. "In the Beginning (Circa 1960)" was also the only Beatles album not owned by EMI though Universal's purchase of Polydor and the Beatles' main catalogue put them under the same ownership.

he term Jew passed into the English language from the Greek "Ioudaios" and Latin "Iudaeus", from which the Old French "giu" was derived after dropping the letter "d", and later after a variety of forms found in early English, that later developed into the English word Jew., and it ultimately originates in the Biblical Hebrew word "Yehudi" meaning "from the Tribe of Judah", which is one of how many, of the Tribes of Israel?

Title: Tzedakah
Passage: Tzedakah ] or 'daqah ] in Classical Hebrew (Hebrew: ; Arabic: ), is a Hebrew word literally meaning justice or righteousness but commonly used to signify "charity", though it is a different concept from charity because tzedakah is an obligation and charity is typically understood as a spontaneous act of goodwill and a marker of generosity. It is based on the Hebrew word (, "Tzedek") meaning "righteousness", "fairness" or "justice", and it is related to the Hebrew word Tzadik meaning "righteous" as an adjective (or "righteous individual" as a noun in the form of a substantive). In Judaism, "tzedakah" refers to the religious obligation to do what is right and just, which Judaism emphasises are important parts of living a spiritual life. Maimonides says that, while the second highest form of "tzedakah" is to give donations anonymously to unknown recipients, the highest form is to give a gift, loan, or partnership that will result in the recipient supporting himself instead of living upon others. Unlike philanthropy or charity, which is completely voluntary, "tzedakah" is seen as a religious obligation, which must be performed regardless of financial standing, and must even be performed by poor people. "Tzedakah" is considered to be one of the three main acts that can annul a less than favorable heavenly decree. The term is synonymous with Sadaqah or Saddka (Arabic: ), an Islamic term meaning "voluntary charity".
Title: Jew (word)
Passage: The term Jew passed into the English language from the Greek "Ioudaios" and Latin "Iudaeus", from which the Old French "giu" was derived after dropping the letter "d", and later after a variety of forms found in early English (from about the year 1000) such as: Iudea, Gyu, Giu, Iuu, Iuw, Iew developed into the English word Jew. It thus ultimately originates in the Biblical Hebrew word "Yehudi" meaning "from the Tribe of Judah", "from the Kingdom of Judah", or "Jew". The Jewish ethnonym in Hebrew is , "Yehudim" (plural of , "Yehudi").
Title: Tetragrammaton
Passage: The tetragrammaton ( ; from Greek , meaning "[consisting of] four letters"), in Hebrew and YHWH in Latin script, is the four-letter Biblical name of the God of Israel.

Religiously observant Jews and those who follow conservative Jewish traditions do not pronounce , nor do they read aloud transliterated forms such as "Yahweh"; instead the word is substituted with a different term, whether used to address or to refer to the God of Israel. Common substitutions for Hebrew forms are "hakadosh baruch hu" ("The Holy One, Blessed Be He"), Adonai ("The Lord"), or "HaShem" ("The Name").
Title: Avda (given name)
Passage: Avda (Russian: ) is an old and rare Russian Christian male first name. It is possibly derived from either the Biblical Hebrew word "abd", meaning "(god's) slave", "(god's) servant", or the Greek word "aud", meaning "speech", "prophecy".

When was the gun invented that chambered the same .45 round as the M3 submachine gun?
|
Title: Arsenal submachine gun
Passage: The Arsenal M23 submachine gun (Estonian: "Arsenali pstolkuulipilduja" ) (also known as Arsenal Tallinn) was an Estonian submachine gun from 1926 through 1935. These submachine guns were designed and produced in the Estonian military equipment factory "Arsenal" in Karjamaa, Tallinn, but production was not more than 600 units. The weapon was chambered for the 9x20 mm semi-rimmed Browning cartridge to be compatible with ammunition for the Browning FN M1903 pistol which had been adopted by the Estonian Army. It operated on the blowback system and was essentially similar to the MP18.1; having a wooden stock, slotted barrel jacket, and horizontal left side magazine feed. A uniquely slender 40 round single column box magazine led to frequent cartridge feeding problems; and cooling fins which were machined lengthwise along the barrel to promote cooling air flow when firing (similar to the Lewis machine gun), unnecessarily complicated production. It was used by the combat support units of the Border Guard, the Estonian Defence League and the Estonian Defence Forces. The Arsenal submachine gun was replaced in Estonian service by the Finnish Suomi KP-31 submachine gun in 1938. The Estonian Army sold a few samples to Latvia and all of the remainder found their way to Republican forces during the Civil War in Spain.

Title: M3 submachine gun
Passage: The M3 was an American .45-caliber submachine gun adopted for U.S. Army service on 12 December 1942, as the United States Submachine Gun, Cal. .45, M3. The M3 was chambered for the same .45 round fired by the Thompson submachine gun, but was cheaper to produce, and lighter, although, contrary to popular belief, it was far less accurate. This myth stems from a US army training film portraying the M3 as more accurate than its counterparts. The M3 was commonly referred to as the "Grease Gun" or simply "the Greaser," owing to its visual similarity to the mechanic's tool.
Title: Thompson submachine gun
Passage: The Thompson submachine gun is an American submachine gun, invented by John T. Thompson in 1918, that became infamous during the Prohibition era.
