How these plants are connected to us?

Reed, in botany, is a common name of several species of large aquatic grasses, especially the four species constituting the genus Phragmites of the grass family (Poaceae). The water reed (Phragmites australis) occurs along the margins of lakes, fens, marshes, and streams from the Arctic to the tropics. It is a broad-leafed grass, about 1.5 to 5 metres (5 to 16.5 feet) tall, with feathery flower clusters and stiff, smooth stems. Other plants of the family Poaceae known as reeds are giant reed(Arundo donax), sea reed (Ammophila arenaria), reed canary grass (Phalaris), and reed grass, or bluejoint (Calamagrostis). 

Dried reed stems have been used for millennia as thatching and construction material, in basketry, for arrows and pens, and in musical instruments .They also are harvested for their cellulose content.

Where we can see this most popularly?

A Glasgow smile (also known as a Chelsea smile) is a wound caused by making small cuts on the corners of a victim's mouth, then beating or stabbing him or her until the muscles in the face contract, causing the cuts to extend up the cheeks to the victim's ears. This leaves a scar in the shape of a smile, hence the name.

The act is usually performed with a utility knife or a piece of broken glass leaving a scar which causes the victim to appear to be smiling broadly.

Which syndrome? Hans ________ was a Viennese child psychologist who

published the first definition of this syndrome in 1944. In four boys, he identified a pattern of behavior and abilities which included "a lack of empathy, little ability to form friendships, one-sided conversation, intense absorption in a special interest, and clumsy movements”. He called children with this syndrome "little professors" because of their ability to talk about their favorite subject in great detail. It is commonly said that the paper was based on only four boys. However, Dr. Günter Krämer, of Zürich, states that it was based on investigations of more than 400 children.

Who? On May 22, 1849, this person received Patent No. 6469 for a device

to lift boats over shoals, an invention which was never manufactured.

The idea of creating this device came to his mind when he was travelling to Illinois his boat became stranded on a sandbar. He invented a convoluted device that involved putting a set of bellows on the bottom of a boat. His reasoning was that if the boat got in a sticky situation,shailors could fill the bellows with air to make the ship more buoyant.

Shown here is his scale model at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C.

To Boddah Speaking from the tongue of an experienced simpleton who obviously would rather be an

emasculated, infantile complain-ee. This note should be pretty easy to understand. All the warnings from the punk rock 101 courses over the years, since my first introduction to the,

shall we say, ethics involved with independence and the embracement of your community has proven to be very true. I haven't felt the excitement of listening to as well as creating music along with reading and writing for too many years now. I feel guity beyond words about these things.

For example when we're back stage and the lights go out and the manic roar of the crowds begins., it doesn't affect me the way in which it did for Freddie Mercury, who seemed to love, relish in the the love and adoration from the crowd which is something I totally admire and envy. The fact is, I can't fool you, any one of you. It simply isn't fair to you or me. The worst crime I can think of would be to rip people off by faking it and pretending as if I'm having 100% fun. Sometimes I feel as if I should have a punch-in time clock before I walk out on stage. I've tried everything within my power to appreciate it (and I do,God, believe me I do, but it's not enough). I appreciate the fact that I and we have affected and entertained a lot of people. It must be one of those narcissists who only appreciate things when they're gone. I'm too sensitive. I need to be slightly numb in order to regain the enthusiasms I once had as a child.

On our last 3 tours, I've had a much better appreciation for all the people I've known personally, and as fans of our music, but I still can't get over the frustration, the guilt and empathy I have for everyone. There's good in all of us and I think I simply love people too much, so much that it makes me feel too fucking sad. The sad little, sensitive, unappreciative, Pisces, Jesus man. Why don't you just enjoy it? I don't know!

I have a goddess of a wife who sweats ambition and empathy and a daughter who reminds me too much of what i used to be, full of love and joy, kissing every person she meets because everyone is good and will do her no harm. And that terrifies me to the point to where I can barely function. I can't stand the thought of Frances becoming the miserable, self-destructive, death rocker that I've become.

I have it good, very good, and I'm grateful, but since the age of seven, I've become hateful towards all humans in general. Only because it seems so easy for people to get along that have empathy. Only because I love and feel sorry for people too much I guess.

Thank you all from the pit of my burning, nauseous stomach for your letters and concern during the past years. I'm too much of an erratic, moody baby! I don't have the passion anymore, and so remember, it's better to burn out than to fade away.

Peace, love, empathy.____ ______

Identify. This is a martial art infused dance, which is thought to have originated in the

16th century in Brazil. Sometimes referred to as a martial art, sometimes a dance, and sometimes even a game, it is instantly recognisable from its musicality and the movements of the performers, as they seem to move together and then suddenly attack each other, still keeping in time with the rhythm.

It has been suggested that it was first created during the 16th century by slaves who were taken from West Africa to Brazil by the Portuguese colonists. Prohibited from celebrating their cultural customs and strictly forbidden from practicing any martial arts, it is thought to have emerged as a way to bypass these two imposing laws. Using this, many slaves escaped their masters and formed rebellion groups.

Descripson of this thing given by its owner:

“Here, M. Aronnax, are the several dimensions of the boat you are in. It is an elongated cylinder with conical ends. It is very like a cigar in shape, a shape already adopted in London in several constructions of the same sort. The length of this cylinder, from stem to stern, is exactly 70 m, and its maximum breadth is eight metres. It is not built on a ratio of ten to one like your long-voyage steamers, but its lines are sufficiently long, and its curves prolonged enough, to allow the water to slide off easily, and oppose no obstacle to its passage. These two dimensions enable you to obtain by a simple calculation the surface and cubic contents of the ________. Its area measures 1011.45 square metres; and its contents 1,500.2 cubic metres; that is to say, when completely immersed it displaces 1500.2 cubic metres of water, or 1500.2 metric tons.”
