Eta (uppercase Η, lowercase η; Ancient Greek: ἦτα êta or Modern Greek: ήτα íta) is the seventh letter of the Greek alphabet. Originally denoting a consonant /h/, its sound value in the classical Attic dialect of Ancient Greek was a long vowel [ɛː], raised to [i] in medieval Greek, a process known as iotacism.
In the system of Greek numerals it has a value of 8. It was derived from the Phoenician letter heth . Letters that arose from Eta include the Latin H and the Cyrillic letter И.
The letter shape 'H' was originally used in most Greek dialects to represent the sound /h/, a voiceless glottal fricative. In this function, it was borrowed in the 8th century BC by the Etruscan and other Old Italic alphabets, which were based on the Euboean form of the Greek alphabet. This also gave rise to the Latin alphabet with its letter H.
Other regional variants of the Greek alphabet (epichoric alphabets), in dialects that still preserved the sound /h/, employed various glyph shapes for consonantal Heta side by side with the new vocalic Eta for some time. In the southern Italian colonies of Heracleia and Tarentum, the letter shape was reduced to a "half-heta" lacking the right vertical stem (Ͱ). From this sign later developed the sign for rough breathing or spiritus asper, which brought back the marking of the /h/ sound into the standardized post-classical (polytonic) orthography.Dionysius Thrax in the second century BC records that the letter name was still pronounced heta (ἥτα), correctly explaining this irregularity by stating "in the old days the letter Η served to stand for the rough breathing, as it still does with the Romans."

UPDATE: The BBC are reporting that a video has been passed exclusively to them that allegedly shows the start of a process of complete ETA disarmament. Find out more here: http://bbc.in/1dbnrua For 40 years the militant group ETA carried out a bloody campaign for independence in the regions of Spain and France known as Basque country. 800 people lost their lives in the campaign with countless others injured.

But now ETA is expected to announce that it will hand over its weapons and bomb-making equipment. We take a closer look. Subscribe to our channel: ht...

Run For Cover
See the man in white
He's old he wouldn't dare to fight, to fight another
Rockin' like a beast upon on a never ending dream
We love each other
Asking for a sign- the action's coming from behind
Let's run for cover
Feel the music's beat, we fight for rock
And in the heat we stand together
We're holding back for you when you fight
And we stand for one another
We're holding back for you, when you run for cover
And see those open eyes
When you are standing here tonight
That's why- We're holding back for you, when you run for cover
Restless in the night, we all stand up for this delight
We fight together
We're holding back for you when you fight
And we stand for one another
We're holding back for you, when you run for cover
We're holding back for you.......
