There are some very good sites here. Have a look through them; I've found them interesting:

The Athenians were having a series of wars with the Spartans and were busy supplying the Perisans with ships and other war materials.

You will recall that it was the 500 Spartans and not the Athenians who got killed by the Persians.

As for Alexander – he rode rough-shod across Persia and so destroyed much of it including King Darius.

This hatred of all things Persian persists unto this day.

Strange when you really understand Greek culture that the Greeks look EAST and always have done, while we in the WEST think of the Greeks as part of Western Culture. It is not so. Western Culture actually starts with the rise of Rome.

Don't believe me, then look in the American Senate and see the New Rome – plus the Eagle etc. It's all there.

Meanwhile here in UK we content ourselves in the knowledge that we are, as Harold Macmillan once told JFK, your Romans Greeks.

St Paul's Cathedral here in London is built on a Greek model and in fact was thought so Greek looking when under construction that some of Wren's design[s] had to be changed a bit.

If you want to enjoy a Greek view in London, stand somewhere near the statue of King Chas One [top of Whitehall] and look north towards the National Gallery. What you see before you is a classical Greek building.

Other Greek style buildings include the Royal Exchange opposite the Bank of England, City of London.

Listen to any modern Greek music, and you can hear the Arab and Turkish influence in it.

Yikes! Are you pasting from 2003 to 2007? That's the only time I've ever had trouble. Are you scrolling all the way to the end of the paste to look for the clipboard?

Anyhow, the workaround it to insert the slides…

PowerPoint XP/2003: Insert pulldown menu –> Slides from files –> Browse for the file –> sroll to find the slide you want and select it –> click on Keep source formatting –> Insert…you're done.

PowerPoint 2007: Home tab –> New Slide pulldown –> Reuse slides –> browse for the file –> click on Keep source formatting at the bottom –> find your slide and right click and choose Insert slide.

If they have been used to eating feeder fish, it's likely that's all they'll take anymore. You can try blood worm, brine shrimp, or beef hearts. Fish can be picky, but sometimes they can be pursuaded to eat other things. Chances that it'll accept flakes after having "real food" is slim to none. You'll have to keep with a carnivorous diet.
