The Wars of the Jews, VII, vii, Flavius > Josephus Josephus also records that the people of Magog, the Magogites, were synonymous with the Scythians.The Antiquities of the Jews, I, vi, Flavius Josephus According to Andrew Runni Anderson,Anderson 1932. this merely indicates that the main elements of the story were already in place six centuries before the Quran's revelation, not that the story itself was known in the cohesive form apparent in the Quranic account. Similarly, St. Jerome (347–420 AD), in his Letter 77, mentions that, > The hordes of the Huns had poured forth all the way from Maeotis (they had > their haunts between the icy Tanais and the rude Massagetae, where the gates > of Alexander keep back the wild peoples behind the Caucasus).
The completed painting was exhibited at the Royal Academy summer exhibition at Burlington House in 1871, with the subtitle "Le jeu est fait - Rien ne va plus" (French: "The stakes are set – No more bets"). It received mixed reviews - some critics preferred the repulsive realism of Doré, but Frith's work became so popular with the viewing public that a barrier was erected to keep back the crowd – an accolade rarely accorded: the previous two instances were Frith's The Derby Day in 1858, and David Wilkie's Chelsea Pensioners reading the Waterloo Dispatch in 1822. It was also exhibited at the Exposition Universelle in Paris in 1878. Frith then embarked on a Hogarthian series of paintings on moral subjects, The Road to Ruin, which follows the descending path of a wealthy young gentleman who becomes embroiled in gambling and loses his fortune.

In addition, he was particularly adept at crowd-control, and would patrol the cordon during a fire to keep back on lookers, barking at them to stop them coming too close to the fire.

Other styles of level are also offered—some levels require the player to move cells from one section of the level to another to complete them, some are straight shootouts with no Nucleus enemies, or collect'em-ups in a dynamic environment. There are survival levels where the player is given a source of cells and have to keep back a more and more quickly expanding herd of bacteria and virus by arranging the cells in a free- form way.

Inouye from instant death but amputating most of his right arm at the elbow (except for a few tendons and a flap of skin) via blunt force trauma. Despite this gruesome injury, Lt. Inouye was again saved from likely death due to the blunt, low- velocity grenade tearing the nerves in his arm unevenly and incompletely, which involuntarily squeezed the grenade tightly via a reflex arc instead of going limp and dropping it at Inouye's feet.

Inouye's horrified soldiers moved to his aid, but he shouted for them to keep back out of fear his severed fist would involuntarily relax and drop the grenade.

A higher duty is expected from parties to an insurance contract than from parties to most other contracts, in order to ensure the disclosure of all material facts so that the contract may accurately reflect the actual risk being undertaken. The principles underlying this rule were stated by Lord Mansfield in the leading and often-quoted case of Carter v Boehm (1766) 97 ER 1162, 1164, > Insurance is a contract of speculation... The special facts, upon which the > contingent chance is to be computed, lie most commonly in the knowledge of > the insured only: the under-writer trusts to his representation, and > proceeds upon confidence that he does not keep back any circumstances in his > knowledge, to mislead the under-writer into a belief that the circumstance > does not exist... Good faith forbids either party by concealing what he > privately knows, to draw the other into a bargain from his ignorance of that > fact, and his believing the contrary.See, generally, Parkington, ed., > MacGillivray and Parkington On Insurance Law, 8th ed.
