London Listeni/ˈlʌndən/ is the capital and most populous city of England and the United Kingdom.[5][6] Standing on the River Thames in the south east of the island of Great Britain, London has been a major settlement for two millennia. It was founded – probably close to an already existing Celtic Briton village or settlement – around the year 43 by the Romans, who named it Londinium.[7] London's ancient core, the City of London, largely retains its 1.12-square-mile (2.9 km2) medieval boundaries. Since at least the 19th century, "London" has also referred to the metropolis around this core, historically split between Middlesex, Essex, Surrey, Kent, and Hertfordshire,[8][9][10] which today largely makes up Greater London,[11][12][note 1] governed by the Mayor of London and the London Assembly.[13][note 2][14]

As a Nylonkong metropolis, London is a leading global city,[15][16] in the arts, commerce, education, entertainment, fashion, finance, healthcare, media, professional services, research and development, tourism, and transport.[17][18][19] It is one of the world's leading financial centres[20][21][22] and has the fifth- or sixth-largest metropolitan area GDP in the world.[note 3][23][24] London is a world cultural capital.[25][26][27] It is the world's most-visited city as measured by international arrivals[28] and has the world's largest city airport system measured by passenger traffic.[29] London is the world's leading investment destination,[30][31][32] hosting more international retailers[33][34] and ultra high-net-worth individuals[35][36] than any other city. London's universities form the largest concentration of higher education institutes in Europe,[37] and a 2014 report placed it first in the world university rankings. According to the report London also ranks first in the world in software, multimedia development and design, and shares first position in technology readiness.[38] In 2012, London became the only city to have hosted the modern Summer Olympic Games three times.[39]

London has a diverse range of people and cultures, and more than 300 languages are spoken in the region.[40] Its estimated mid-2015 municipal population (corresponding to Greater London) was 8,673,713,[2] the largest of any city in the European Union,[41] and accounting for 12.5 per cent of the UK population.[42] London's urban area is the second most populous in the EU, after Paris, with 9,787,426 inhabitants at the 2011 census.[43] The city's metropolitan area is one of the most populous in Europe with 13,879,757 inhabitants,[note 4][44] while the Greater London Authority states the population of the city-region (covering a large part of the south east) as 22.7 million.[45] London was the world's most populous city from around 1831 to 1925.[46]

London contains four World Heritage Sites: the Tower of London; Kew Gardens; the site comprising the Palace of Westminster, Westminster Abbey, and St Margaret's Church; and the historic settlement of Greenwich (in which the Royal Observatory, Greenwich marks the Prime Meridian, 0° longitude, and GMT).[47] Other famous landmarks include Buckingham Palace, the London Eye, Piccadilly Circus, St Paul's Cathedral, Tower Bridge, Trafalgar Square, and The Shard. London is home to numerous museums, galleries, libraries, sporting events and other cultural institutions, including the British Museum, National Gallery, Natural History Museum, Tate Modern, British Library and West End theatres.[48] The London Underground is the oldest underground railway network in the world.

ADIDAS stands for Adi Dassler (Adolf Dassler) who is the founder. In fact, one of the founders, his brother Rudolf Dassler later went on to found Puma. There is a popular myth among fans (not true) that Adidas stands for All Day I Dream About Sports.

Message:
Why lion is considered or said to be as king of the jungle? The question may appear very frivolous and nonsensical as the human beings only 'crowned' the lion as king of the jungle and none of the animals may be even aware of such 'coronation' event. Interestingly, even the 'lion' itself may not know such title has been conferred to 'him'.

When was such coronation event had happened is not known. Why the tiger was not considered for the title of the 'king' despite tiger being the biggest among all the cats. What is so unique or special for 'lion'?

Perhaps, the great management principle and reason only would have made the early man to title the 'lion as king of jungle'. The point worth mention is about the astute management knowledge of early man and how relevant the same is even today. The modern corporate must learn and follow the above tenets.

What are the generally expected or accepted qualities of a king?

  1. King should be very majestic and distinguishable from the rest

  2. King should respect and protect his clan

  3. The entire clan should be willing to do 'sacrifice' for the king

  4. The palace where king lives should be very open and visible to others even from a distance

  5. King should be willing to abdicate his throne to a new king when he becomes old

Career

Background information

Pentatonix began with three friends who grew up together and were schoolmates at Martin High School in Arlington, Texas: Kirstin "Kirstie" Maldonado (born May 16, 1992), Mitchell "Mitch" Grassi (born July 24, 1992), and Scott Hoying (born September 17, 1991).Hearing of a local radio show hosting a competition to meet the cast of Glee, they arranged a trio version of "Telephone" and sent it in. Although they did not end up winning the competition, it sparked attention around their school, where the group began performing. After their version of "Telephone" by Lady Gaga gained attention on YouTube, they continued performing.
