Kermisic Acid. Many accounts claim that kermisic acid [476-35-7] (Cl Natural Red 3 Cl 75460) is the oldest dyestuff ever recorded (23). The name kermes is derived from an Armenian word meaning Httle worm for which the later Latin equivalent was vermiculus, the basis of the Knglish word Vermillion. The dye was obtained from an oriental shield louse, K. ilicis which infest the holm o5kQuercus ilex and the shmb oak. coccifera. The dye produces a brilliant scarlet color with an alum mordant. Although expensive, it was cheaper than its rival Tyrian Purple. It was in great demand until the sixteenth century when it was displaced by carminic acid.

Indeed, if a radius of 300 miles is drawn at the point of convergence of the Iranian, Turkish and Armenian borders, just south of Yerevan, the territory thusly covered would include the following list of cross-border and internal conflicts that have occurred during the 1990 s ...

Another important result obtained by Armenian physicists during the 1960s, is the observation that the mass of superdense objects is limited and is about several solar masses. This conclusion made in the beginning of the 1960s, actually proved the statement that the stars with masses above several solar masses turn into black holes at the end of their evolution. These works have stimulated intensive studies of black holes which are continued until now. 

The problem of rotation of neutron stars in the framework of General Relativity Theory was solved before the discovery of pulsars and the important contribution of the Armenian scientists in this work is well documented. With all... 

The organization of this conference on superdense QCD matter in compact stars in Yerevan in 2003, the year in which the founders of the Armenian scientific school V. H. Ambartsumyan and G. S. Sahakian would become 95 and 85 years old, was the homage to them and all the Armenian scientists, who have made contributions to the investigation of superdense stellar matter. 

This work was supported by the Armenian National Science and Education Foundation (ANSEF Grant No. PS 140) and the Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic of Armenia within the framework of the topic No. 0842. 

Roth himself is most interested here in the idea of Jewishness—the poor bastard, as one of his own characters puts it, has Jew on the brain — and certainly the notion of racial Jewishness, like anti-Semitism, has an independent history of its own. But the vicissitude of Jewish whiteness is intimately related to the racial odysseys of myriad other groups—the Irish, Armenians, Italians, Poles, Syrians, Greeks, Ruthenian s, Sicilians, Finns, and a host of others—who came ashore in the United States as free white... 

The division of the white race into North European and West Asiatic is at the very crux of becoming Caucasian for, say, the Semite or the Armenian, just as the strained categorization of the American Indian as representing the Yellow Race conveys the urgency by which Benedict has organized the exhibit around humanity s three great divisions. ...

The court gave many reasons for ruling on the Armenians borderline whiteness. The heart of the United States argument for exclusion was the contention that white is the equivalent of European, and is used to... 

The first Congress could not have intended that the likes of George Dow be protected in his pursuit of property, that is, because to them he would have been property. Though slavery had been abolished, its logic remained suitable for framing naturalization decisions, just as Jim Crow had been summoned by another court in admitting the Armenian Hal-ladjian. 

You can generate that uneasiness in the eyes of almost any American, except a wealthy WASP in Poles, Italians, Chicanos, Blacks, in Greeks, Armenians, the French. . . Unworthiness was stamped upon their souls. Red-hot branding irons singe a calf s new skin. The trauma can be traced, reopened.
