The advent of World War I and the development by the Japanese of cultured pearls all but destroyed the industry. Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan (1918-2004) became the ruler of Abu Dhabi in 1966 and was the driving force behind the unification of the emirates. With oil interests being lost to U.S. companies, the answer to that problem lay in unifying their interests and protecting their own resources from foreign control. The new constitution was put in place in 1971, forming the UAE from the former 'Trucial States.'

[Answer] Who played the Joker in the original "Batman" TV series in the 1960s?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "Who played the Joker in the original "Batman" TV series in the 1960s?"



...Many in Hollywood questioned the wisdom of leading man Cesar Romero taking the role of "The Joker" in the 1966 TV series "Batman." The role, for which he refused to shave his trademark mustache, was a favorite part of the hugely successful TV series. Romero's first movie role was in 1933 and he rapidly rose through the ranks as a "Latin lover." He gave memorable performances in 1947's "Captain from Castile" and in 1948's "Julia Misbehaves." These roles helped him land a starring role in 1954's TV espionage serial "Passport to Danger." Because of a brilliant profit-sharing arrangement on which he insisted, Romero made a considerable income from this venture. Though he had no financial need to work again, he continued taking roles, much to the delight of his fans, for years to come. Source: IMDb.com

[Ans] Who recorded the hit song "Hazy Shade of Winter" in the late 1960s?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "Who recorded the hit song "Hazy Shade of Winter" in the late 1960s?"

The lyrics recall the transition from fall to winter, as suggested by the repetition of the final chorus of the song:





Step 2 : Answer to the question "Who recorded the hit song "Hazy Shade of Winter" in the late 1960s?"



Simon & Garfunkel:


"Hazy Shade of Winter" by Simon & Garfunkel was a substantial hit in the late 1960s, reaching No. 13 on the charts. It is generally considered one of their best songs. Its powerful drum rhythm makes it one of the toughest and more rock-centered pieces by the duo who are more lauded for their trademark mild, dignified harmonies. The song comes to an abrupt end upon the final chorus, with the final line about a patch of snow on the ground. Source: AllMusic.com
