] | After her father spares the life of a piglet from culling it as runt of the litter , a little girl named Fern Arable nurtures the piglet lovingly , naming him Wilbur . On greater maturity , Wilbur is sold to Fern 's uncle , Homer Zuckerman , in whose barnyard he is left yearning for companionship but is snubbed by other barn animals , until befriended by a barn spider named Charlotte , living on a web overlooking Wilbur 's enclosure . Upon Wilbur 's discovery that he is intended for slaughter , she promises to hatch a plan guaranteed to spare his life . Accordingly , she secretly weaves praise of him into her web , attracting publicity among Zuckerman 's neighbors who attribute the praise to divine intervention . As time passes , more inscriptions appear on Charlotte 's webs , increasing his renown . Therefore , Wilbur is entered in the county fair , accompanied by Charlotte and the rat Templeton , whom she employs in gathering inspiration for her messages . There , Charlotte spins an egg sac containing her 514 unborn children , and Wilbur , despite winning no prizes , is later celebrated by the fair 's staff and visitors ( thus made too prestigious alive to justify killing him ) . Exhausted apparently by laying eggs , Charlotte remains at the fair and dies shortly following Wilbur 's departure . Having returned to Zuckerman 's farm , Wilbur guards Charlotte 's egg sac and is saddened further when the new spiders depart shortly after hatching . The three smallest remain , however , and take up residence in the doorway where Charlotte used to live . Pleased at finding new friends , Wilbur names one of them Nellie , while the remaining two name themselves Joy and Aranea . The book then concludes by mentioning that more generations of spiders kept him company in subsequent years . | -7,525,641,252,100,880,000 |

Fans generally stand up and stretch out their arms and legs and sometimes walk around . It is a popular time to get a late - game snack or an alcoholic beverage as well , as vendors end alcohol sales after the last out of the seventh inning . The stretch also serves as a short break for the players . Most ballparks in professional baseball mark this point of the game by playing the crowd sing - along song '' Take Me Out to the Ball Game '' . Since the September 11 attacks , many American ballparks complement or replace the song with the playing of '' God Bless America . '' If a game goes into a fifth extra inning , a similar '' fourteenth - inning stretch '' is celebrated ( as well as a possible '' twenty - first inning stretch '' or '' twenty - eighth inning stretch '' ) .

where does heat come from in our body | 20,971,201 | [
"homeostasis"
] | Thermoregulation is the ability of an organism to keep its body temperature within certain boundaries , even when the surrounding temperature is very different . A thermoconforming organism , by contrast , simply adopts the surrounding temperature as its own body temperature , thus avoiding the need for internal thermoregulation . The internal thermoregulation process is one aspect of homeostasis : a state of dynamic stability in an organism 's internal conditions , maintained far from thermal equilibrium with its environment ( the study of such processes in zoology has been called physiological ecology ) . If the body is unable to maintain a normal temperature and it increases significantly above normal , a condition known as hyperthermia occurs . For humans , this occurs when the body is exposed to constant temperatures of approximately 55 ° C ( 131 ° F ) , and with prolonged exposure ( longer than a few hours ) at this temperature and up to around 75 ° C ( 167 ° F ) death is almost inevitable . Humans may also experience lethal hyperthermia when the wet bulb temperature is sustained above 35 ° C ( 95 ° F ) for six hours . The opposite condition , when body temperature decreases below normal levels , is known as hypothermia . It results when the homeostatic control mechanisms of heat within the body malfunction , causing the body to lose heat faster than producing it . Normal body temperature is around 37 ° C ( 99 ° F ) , and hypothermia sets in when the core body temperature gets lower than 35 ° C ( 95 ° F ) . Usually caused by prolonged exposure to cold temperatures , hypothermia is usually treated by methods that attempt to raise the body temperature back to a normal range . | -7,570,888,236,708,330,000 |

Although the time of the return seek is wasted , this results in more equal performance for all head positions , as the expected distance from the head is always half the maximum distance , unlike in the standard elevator algorithm where cylinders in the middle will be serviced as much as twice as often as the innermost or outermost cylinders . | -3,490,883,789,828,988,000 |

the law or bill that changes the legal consequences of acts committed on the legal status of facts | 20,971,212 | [
"ex post facto law"
] | An ex post facto law ( corrupted from Latin : ex postfacto , lit . ' out of the aftermath ' ) is a law that retroactively changes the legal consequences ( or status ) of actions that were committed , or relationships that existed , before the enactment of the law . In criminal law , it may criminalize actions that were legal when committed ; it may aggravate a crime by bringing it into a more severe category than it was in when it was committed ; it may change the punishment prescribed for a crime , as by adding new penalties or extending sentences ; or it may alter the rules of evidence in order to make conviction for a crime likelier than it would have been when the deed was committed . Conversely , a form of ex post facto law commonly called an amnesty law may decriminalize certain acts . A pardon has a similar effect , in a specific case instead of a class of cases . Other legal changes may alleviate possible punishments ( for example by replacing the death sentence with lifelong imprisonment ) retroactively . Such legal changes are also known by the Latin term in mitius . | -1,026,644,602,461,725,800 |

who sings the theme song to mystery science theater 3000 | 20,971,227 | [
"Hodgson"
] | The show 's theme song , the '' Love Theme from Mystery Science Theater 3000 '' , was written by Hodgson and Weinstein , which helped to cement some of the broader narrative elements of the show , such as the Mads and Joel being part of an experiment . The song was composed by Charlie Erickson with help from Hodgson in the style of Devo , The Replacements , and The Rivieras ( particularly their cover of the song '' California Sun '' ) and sung by Hodgson . Initial shows used foam letters to make the show 's title , but they later created the spinning - moon logo out of a 2 - foot ( 0.6 m ) diameter fiberglass ball , covered with foam insulation and the lettering cut from additional foam pieces . Hodgson felt they needed a filmed logo with the rotating effect as opposed to a flat 2D image , and though they had envisioned a more detailed prop , with the letters being the tops of buildings on this moon , they had no time or budget for a project of that complexity and went with what they had . Musical numbers would also be used as part of the host segments , which Hodgson said came out naturally from the riffing process ; they would find themselves at times singing along with the movie instead of just riffing at it , and took that to extend songs into the host segments . | -5,159,447,948,228,142,000 |
