Paper marbling
Paper marbling is a method of which can make patterns. The patterns are the result of paint floated on water. The colouring is transferred to an absorbent surface, such as paper or fabric. It is often used as a writing surface for calligraphy, and especially book covers and endpapers in bookbinding and stationery. It is rarely used today, but was common in the 19th century. The reason for its lack of use today may be that it adds to the expense of the finished book. References Paper Art Publishing

Villa Plinii (Lierna Lake Como)
Villa Plinii, it is a villa of particular historical and artistic interest, is a design of a house on Lake Como as a cliff villa built on a high rock of Lierna (Lake Como) called "La Rocca", with a very visitable view to Lake Como, of about 1000 square meters , by designer Piero Portaluppi and Gualtiero Galmanini, in 1953, while the structures of the long staircase remained original and sculpted by the artist Giannino Castiglioni. The mansion is surrounded by a vast park with magnolias, palms and pines. The botanical garden project, with rare essences, was done by Achille Castiglioni, who also studied botanically the plants that change colors according to the seasons, creating a chromotherapy system. His quotes appear to be close to 100 million euros. History The legends about Pliny's villa, backed up by archaeological finds in the area and ancient texts, tell that the villa of Pliny the Younger stood here on a rock on the shores of Lake Como. In the early 1950s, at the time of the birth of Italian design, which later became world famous, a noble Italo-French billionaire, patron of the arts bought Villa Liberty in a flat park and had Portaluppi, now an old man, together with Galmanini, design an exemplary unique architecture that transformed her into a work of art. Description Villa Plinii is a unique piece of high Italian design from the 1950s on Lake Como. With the unique feature of the terraced roof on Lake Como, the most beautiful view of Cape Bellagio is offered with a special slope that stands out at sunset. Front and side are surrounded by the beautiful beaches of Lake Como, and its walls are part of the path of Leonardo da Vinci. The villa is private and has a beautiful view of the entire Lake Como overlooking Mount Bellagio, thanks to the fact that it was built overlooking the lake on a rock, from which it takes its name from Borgo di Lierna (originally from There a hernia, there on a rock) . An incredibly huge site was built for the construction and is still up to the rock with systems identical to large dams, very high cost and with unique technologies that are too expensive to build today and for which it is impossible to obtain permits today. The architectural style is an experiment of Italian rationalism of a unique avant-garde, today it would be impossible to obtain permission to create forms on the lake like those present in the villa.

Johannes Diderik van der Waals
Johannes Diderik van der Waals (; 23 November 1837 – 8 March 1923) was a Dutch theoretical physicist and thermodynamicist. He became famous for his pioneering work on the equation of state for gases and liquids. Van der Waals started his career as a school teacher. In 1877, he became the first physics professor of the University of Amsterdam. Van der Waals won the 1910 Nobel Prize in physics for his work on the equation of state for gases and liquids. Things named after Van der Waals His name is primarily associated with the Van der Waals equation of state that describes the behavior of gases and their condensation to the liquid phase. His name is also associated with Van der Waals forces (forces between stable molecules), with Van der Waals molecules (small molecular clusters bound by Van der Waals forces), and with Van der Waals radii (sizes of molecules). As James Clerk Maxwell said, "there can be no doubt that the name of Van der Waals will soon be among the foremost in molecular science." 1873 thesis In his 1873 thesis, Van der Waals noted that real gases were not ideal: He thought this was because there are intermolecular interactions. He introduced the first equation of state derived by the assumption of a finite volume occupied by the constituent molecules. Spearheaded by Ernst Mach and Wilhelm Ostwald, a strong philosophical current that denied the existence of molecules arose towards the end of the 19th century. The molecular existence was considered unproven and the molecular hypothesis unnecessary. At the time Van der Waals's thesis was written (1873), the molecular structure of fluids had not been accepted by most physicists, and liquid and vapor were often considered as chemically distinct. But Van der Waals's work affirmed the reality of molecules and allowed an assessment of their size and attractive strength. His new formula revolutionized the study of equations of state. By comparing his equation of state with experimental data, Van der Waals was able to obtain estimates for the actual size of molecules and the strength of their mutual attraction. Effects to molecular physics The effect of Van der Waals's work on molecular physics in the 20th century was direct and fundamental. By introducing parameters characterizing molecular size and attraction in constructing his equation of state, Van der Waals set the tone for modern molecular science. That molecular aspects such as size, shape, attraction, and multipolar interactions should form the basis for mathematical formulations of the thermodynamic and transport properties of fluids is presently considered an axiom. With the help of the Van der Waals's equation of state, the critical-point parameters of gases could be accurately predicted from thermodynamic measurements made at much higher temperatures. Nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, and helium subsequently succumbed to liquefaction. Heike Kamerlingh Onnes was significantly influenced by the pioneering work of Van der Waals. In 1908, Onnes became the first to make liquid helium; this led directly to his 1911 discovery of superconductivity.

https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/PS%20General%20Slocum
PS General Slocum
The PS General Slocum was a ship. It was a steam ship. One June 15, 1904, it caught fire in the East River in New York. More than 1000 people died. Making The PS Slocum was built in 1891. It had a sidewheel system. It was a paddle boat. It was a passenger ship. The Solcum was built to take as many as 2500 passengers. It had 2500 life vests. In May 1904, a fire inspector looked at the ship and said its fire stopping tools were in "fine working order." Disaster St. Mark's Evangelical Lutheran Church was on the Lower East Side of Manhattan island. It was in a German-American neighborhood called Kleindeutschland, or "Little Germany." The church paid the Knickerbocker Steamboat Company $350 for the General Slocum to take a special trip. The trip was to celebrate the end of the school year. Not everyone who came on the trip was German-American. Churchgoers invited their friends and neighbors to come too. Most people wore their best clothes. The people on the boat planned to go to Locust Grove on Long Island's North Shore for the day. They brought baskets of food for picnics. There were 1,358 people on the boat in total, passengers and crew. Most of the passengers were women and children. The ship left Manhattan at 9:00 a.m. Before 9:30, something on the ship began to burn. The ship caught fire. People had to decide whether to burn on the boat or jump into the water. Most people in 1904 New York could not swim. The clothes people wore in 1904 New York became very heavy when they got wet, so even people who could swim a little were pulled down into the river. The crew tried to put out the fire with fire hoses. But the hoses were old and broke apart. There were life vests on the ship, but they were so old that they only sank into the water. They had been made with cork, but the cork had turned to powder. The life boats were old and could not float. The crew had not done any fire drills. The crew did not know what to do when the passengers became frightened. The captain, William Henry Van Schaick, tried to find a place to land, and he chose North Brother Island a mile away. He made the ship move very fast. This made the fire worse. Some people saw the fire and tried to help. Tug boats came to the ship. The people tried to pull people from the General Slocum out of the water. Mostly, they found dead bodies, but the people on the tug boats pulled dozens of living people out of the water. A ship from the New York Yacht Club came near the General Slocum, but the man on it only watched. The ship came to North Brother Island. The island had a hospital on it for people with typhoid. The people in the hospital blew their fire whistle. They brought hoses and equipment to put out the fire. Nurses threw ropes and anything that would float to people in the water. Some nurses jumped into the water and swam to pull people out. But the fire was very hot and many people burned to death. 321 people lived. 1021 died. This was the highest number of dead people from one thing in New York City until the September 11 attacks in 2001. The river water washed dead bodies onto the ground for days. Blame and trial People are not sure how the fire started, but it could have been from a match or cigarette falling onto some hay. Frank A. Barnaby, the President of the Knickerbocker Steamboat Company, said the captain and crew had done well. People said Captain Van Schaick decided not to steer the ship back to the city when the fire started. They said this was because of insurance. But it may not be true. Van Schaick steered the ship toward North Brother Island. Van Schaick said this was because he would have had to land the ship near 130th street near the Bronx, which had wood yards and gas tanks. Captain Van Shaick was put on trial in a United States Circuit Court for criminal negligence. On Janaury 27, 1906, he was found guilty. They said the disaster was his fault because he did not make the crew do fire drills. Judge Thomas sentenced him to 10 years hard labor. The Knickerbocker Steamboat Company was not punished. Van Schaick went to Sing Sing prison. His wife asked President William Howard Taft to pardon him. Taft did in 1911. Communities The German-American community in Manhattan changed after the disaster. Many people whose families had died killed themselves or were so sad that it became an illness. The Jewish-American and Italian-American communities lost many people too. There is a marble monument to the people who died in Tompkins Square Park. The Sympathy Society of German Ladies put it there in 1906. Because most of the people on the boat were women and children, many German-American men suddenly had no wives or children. Many of them moved north to be nearer the place where their families had died. Soon, there was a German-American neighborhood on the Upper East Side. The Kleindeutschland neighborhood faded away. New people from Poland and Russia came to live there instead. References Ships Disasters

Stockfish
Especially in northern countries, fish is dried, to make it last longer, without spoiling. The dried fish, is put on woooden racks, where it is exposed to air and wind. No salt is used. The resulting product is called stockfish. The wooden racks are called "hjell" in Norway They are located on the foreshore. The drying of food is the world's oldest known preservation method. Dried fish has a storage life of several years. The method is cheap and effective in suitable climates; the work can be done by the fisherman and family, and the resulting product is easily transported to a market.

https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Navy%20bean
Navy bean
The navy bean, haricot, pearl haricot bean, Boston bean, white pea bean, or pea bean is a variety of the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) native to the Americas, where it was first domesticated. It is a dry white bean that is smaller than many other types of white beans, and has an oval, slightly flattened shape. It features in such dishes as baked beans, various soups such as Senate bean soup, and even pies. The green bean plants that produce navy beans may be either of the bush type or vining type, depending on which cultivar they are. History The name "Navy bean" is an American term coined because the US Navy has served the beans as a staple to its sailors since the mid-1800s. In Australia, navy bean production began during World War II when it became necessary to find an economical way of supplying a nutritious food to the many troops—especially American troops—based in Queensland. The United States military maintained a large base in Kingaroy and had many bases and camps throughout south-east Queensland. It actively encouraged the widespread planting of the beans. Kingaroy is known as the Baked Bean Capital of Australia. Another popular name for the bean during this time was "the Yankee bean". Cultivars Navy bean cultivars include: "Rainy River" "Robust", resistant to the bean common mosaic virus (BCMV), which is transmitted through seeds Michelite, descended from 'Robust', but with higher yields and better seed quality Sanilac, the first bush navy bean cultivar Other white beans Other varieties of white beans include: Cannellini (or fazolia) are a white kidney bean that is popular in central and southern Italy, but first developed in Argentina. They are larger than navy beans and closely related to the red kidney bean They are used in minestrone soups. Lima beans, also known as Butter Beans. Great northern, also called "large white" beans, are larger than navy beans as well, but smaller than cannellini beans. They have a flattened shape similar to lima beans and a delicate flavor. The runner bean, Phaseolus coccineus, is a large white bean known in Greece as gígantes (Greek: γίγαντες, "giants") and eléfantes (ελέφαντες, "elephants"). The marrow bean, a medium to large white bean with a bacon-like flavor, which was popular for baked beans in the U.S. in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Nutritional value White beans are the most abundant plant-based source of phosphatidylserine (PS) yet known. It contains notably high levels of apigenin, , which vary widely among legumes. Consumption of baked beans has been shown to lower total cholesterol levels and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. This might be at least partly explained by the high saponin content of navy beans. Saponins also exhibit antibacterial and anti-fungal activity, and have been found to inhibit cancer cell growth. Furthermore, navy beans are the richest source of ferulic acid and p-coumaric acid among the common bean varieties. Storage and safety Dried and canned beans stay fresh longer by storing them in a pantry or other cool, dark place under . With normal seed storage, seeds should last from one to four years for replanting, with a very large timetable for cooking for well-kept seeds, nearing on indefinite. Avoid beans that are discolored from the pure white color of these beans, as they may have been poorly handled while they dried. References

Cingulate cortex
The cingulate cortex is a part of the brain in the middle of the cerebral cortex. The two parts of the cingulate cortex are the cingulate gyrus and the cingulate sulcus. The cingulate cortex is above the corpus callosum. Connections The cingulate cortex is connected to many other parts of the brain. It gets input from the thalamus and the neocortex. Neurons send information from the cingulate cortex to the entorhinal cortex. Importance The cingulate cortex is a part of the limbic system. It is important for emotions, learning, and memory. The cingulate gyrus is very important for learning from the result of actions (eg. a child did an action that caused a bad outcome, so the child learned to not do that action). The cingulate cortex is also important in depression and schizophrenia. References Anatomy of the brain

Transformice
Transformice is a massively multiplayer online game that is available to play online. It is also a platform game and is free-to-play. It was created by Tigrounette and Melibellule on May 1, 2010. Transformice needs either a web browser running Adobe Flash Player 9.0+, Adobe AIR to use the official standalone or Steam to play the game. In 2012, the game had 10 million accounts, 60 million in 2015, 70 million in 2017, and 100 million in 2019. Gameplay The aim of the game is to collect the cheese as a mouse and take it back to the mouse hole. Players control the mouse with the arrow keys. When a player gets the highest score on the scoreboard, they will become a shaman on the next map. The shaman helps other players get the cheese and bring it back to the hole. The shaman can make objects such as planks, boxes, anvils and balloons to create structures. Cheese can be used to buy clothes for the mouse. Players can win rewards such as titles, badges and clothes by completing tasks. Game modes Transformice has different game modes. Transformice This is the normal mode of Transformice. It has maps mostly made by players. Vanilla Vanilla is very similar to Transformice. It only has official maps. Survivor In this mode, the shaman tries to kill the mice using cannonballs. Racing In this mode, players compete to finish maps as fast as possible. Shortcuts help finish the map quickly. Bootcamp Bootcamp levels are very hard. Defilante The map moves horizontally and players must keep up with it. There are points around the map and mice must collect as many as possible before getting the cheese and entering the hole. Module This mode has minigames made by other players using a programming language called Lua. There are over 40 official modules and over 70 semi-official modules. Village There is no objective in this game mode. The map looks like a village, with several non-player characters. Players use the village to chat, roleplay or trade. Development The game was created by Melibellule (real name Mélanie Christin) and Tigrounette (real name Jean-Baptiste Le Marchand). They met at work and became friends. Tigrounette had experience making games in the past and wanted Melibellule to make the artwork. Melibellule came up with the idea of a little mouse who had to get cheese and bring it back to the mouse hole as quickly as possible. After quitting their jobs, Melibellule and Tigrounette created the gaming company Atelier 801. They later made the games Run for Cheese!, Bouboum, Nekodancer, Fortoresse, Dead Maze and Tomb Rumble. A sequel called Transformice Adventures is being made.

Domeykosaurus (meaning "Domeyko lizard", after 19th century scientist Ignacy Domeyko) is a genus of dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous. It was a sauropod, more specifically a Titanosaur Its fossils were found in Chile by paleontologists David Rubilar and Alexander Vargas in 2003. At 40 percent complete, the Domeykosaurus fossil is the most complete example of any dinosaur found in Chile. Domeykosaurus was 25 feet long and 6.5 feet wide, with the long neck and tail typical of titanosaurs. It was uncharacteristically gracile, with more slender limbs than are usually associated with its type. Paleontologists speculate that the herbivore most likely ate such plants as the extant genus Araucaria, also known as the "Monkey Puzzle Tree", which is native to the area. Dinosaurs

Oxyrhynchus hymn
The Oxyrhynchus hymn is a Christian Greek religious song with lyrics and musical notation from the 3rd century AD. The hymn was written on a manuscript that was discovered in 1918 in modern Egypt, published in 1922, and now preserved in Oxford University. Description The lyrics of the Oxyrhynchus hymn were written in the Greek language. They use poetry to summon silence in praise of the Holy Trinity, a motif of ancient Greek hymns called cosmic stillness. The music of the Oxychynchus hymn is composed in Greek vocal notation. Overall, the Oxyrhynchus hymn illustrates the historical continuity of Greek culture where educated Christian Greeks accepted and used the musical notation of their ancient Greek ancestors. Also, it is the only surviving piece of Christian Greek music from the first 400 years of Christianity. Text The Phos Hilaron and the Oxyrhynchus hymn are the earliest existing Greek hymns used in Christian worship, but are not based on the Bible. . . . together all the eminent ones of God. . . . . . night] nor day (?) Let it/them be silent. Let the luminous stars not [. . .], . . . [Let the rushings of winds, the sources] of all surging rivers [cease].

Freedom Convoy () is an ongoing protest in Canada against COVID-19 vaccine requirements for truckers to re-enter the country by land. The protests began with many truck drivers from all provinces coming together against the vaccine mandate and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on January 22, 2022. On January 29, 2022, truckers and other vaccine protestors started rally at Parliament Hill in Ottawa. The protest continued into February. Protesters have stated that they will not leave until all COVID-19 restrictions and mandates have been removed with some wanting the federal government to be overthrown. Some politicians and media sources raised concerns that organizers and groups involved with the protest have had connections with white nationalism, racism, Islamophobia, the QAnon conspiracy theory, and far-right groups that support violence. On February 14, 2022 Prime Minister Trudeau announced he would use the Emergencies Act to stop the protests, making it the first time that the act has been used in Canadian history.
