Posterior cruciate ligament
The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) is a ligament in each knee of humans and many other animals. It works as a counterpart to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). It connects the posterior intercondylar area of the tibia to the medial condyle of the femur. This allows the PCL to resist forces pushing the tibia posteriorly relative to the femur.
Meniscus (anatomy)
A meniscus is a crescent-shaped fibrocartilaginous anatomical structure that only partly divides a joint cavity. This contrasts an articular disc. In humans they are present in the knee, wrist, acromioclavicular, sternoclavicular, and temporomandibular joints. In other animals they may be present in other joints.
Generally, the term "meniscus" is used to refer to the cartilage of the knee, either to the lateral or medial meniscus. Both are cartilaginous tissues that provide structural integrity to the knee when it undergoes tension and torsion. The menisci are also known as "semi-lunar" cartilages, referring to their half-moon, crescent shape.
The term "meniscus" is from the Ancient Greek word (), meaning "crescent".

Certain women will submit to their partner. In this case the woman will allow her partner to use her body for his sexual pleasure. Very often, the activity is associated with BDSM, the S in BDSM can stand for submission. This practice is known as female submission or femsub. The submission is consensual, the woman wants to submit, and also gets sexual pleasure from doing so. Usually, submission requires a degree of trust. The partner the woman submits to (called 'dominant') is a man, most of the time. There are setups where there may be more than one dominant partner. The woman may also get emotional gratification from submitting and giving control to her trusted partner.
A 1985 study suggested that about three out of ten people taking part in BDSM activities were women. A 2015 study indicates that 61.7% of females who are active in BDSM preferred a submissive role, 25.7% consider themselves a switch (they take both roles), while 12.6% prefer the dominant role. In contrast, 46.6% of men prefer the submissive role, 24% consider themselves to be switches and 29.5% prefer the dominant role.
Submission can take different forms. One form is to be passive and to do what the partner wants. This may mean that the partner is able to start all sexual activities, and to control the sex positions used. It can also be about the type of sexual activities the partners do: Not all foreplay leads to coitus (anal sex, sexual roleplay or BDSM doesn't). In some cases, the woman needs to be passive, while the man performs a sex act on her. Letting the partner do that can also be seen as a form of submission. Doing what the partner says may be a part of a sexual roleplay or activity, and can also be in the relation to the style of dress, if any, or behavior or any other manner. Anything, where the woman is passive can be seen as submissive behaviour. As an example, the woman will let her lover undress her.
Submission can show in different ways: In all cases, the woman gives up sexual or personal control to another person. Examples are acts of servitude, submission to humiliation or punishment such as erotic spanking, or other activities, at times in association with bondage. Female submission can take the form of engaging in sexual activity with a person other than her normal partner, as in the case of swinging, non-monogamy or prostitution. Some women choose to include occasional sexual submission in an otherwise conventional sex life. For example, a woman may adopt a submissive role during a sexual activity to overcome a sexual inhibition she may have. A woman may choose to submit full-time, becoming a lifestyle slave.
Some people get erotic pleasure from their sex partner acting in a submissive manner. For them i is a turn-on. Other people regard obvious passivity as a form of feminine flirting or seduction. Some women submit to the sexual wishes of their partner for the pleasure of the partner, which may itself result in sexual pleasure for the submissive woman.
Female submission and conquest are very common themes in traditional literature. When they are married, many man see their wives as subordinate; in that view, a woman is defenseless in society, and has to submit to men.
"Story of O", published in 1954 in French, is an erotic tale of female submission involving a beautiful Parisian fashion photographer named O, who is taught to be constantly available for all forms of sex, offering herself to any male.
Wonder Woman's original key weakness was permitting herself to be bound by a man. While this exploitable weakness has since been retconned out of continuity by DC comics, it was absolutely key to the character Dr. Marston, an ardent feminist and practicing psychologist, was creating. His point was that women are not actually inferior to men, they are oppressed. The only reason they are "weaker" is because they allow men to make them so.

Arnstein
Arnstein () is a town in Main-Spessart in the "Regierungsbezirk" of Lower Franconia ("Unterfranken") in Bavaria, Germany.
Arnstein's "Stadtteile" are:
The Pine Barrens or Pinelands are a place in New Jersey in the eastern United States. They are in the southern part of the state. Sometimes the word "Pinelands" only means the Pinelands Natural Reserve.
The Pinelands Natural Reserve is a large part of the Pine Barrens. It is 1.1 million acres in size. They are 22 percent of all New Jersey's area. Not all of the Pine Barrens are in the Pinelands Natural Reserve.
Because there is so much sand and acid in the soil, people did not want to make farms in the Pine Barrens. But the water in the Pine Barrens was very pure. Sea captains liked to take water from the Pine Barrens with them on long trips because it did not go bad quickly. The iron in the soil and tannin chemicals from the cedar trees kept bacteria from turning the water bad.
Sometimes the Atlantic white cedar trees die. This is because salt water rises into the Pine Barrens. It has happened many times, but the trees eventually come back. Scientists think that climate change might mean the trees will die and not grow back.
Some of the people who moved to the Pine Barrens in the 1700s were Quakers who had fought in the American Revolution. The other Quakers had thrown them out because Quakers are not supposed to kill other human beings. British loyalists also came to the Pine Barrens in the 1700s. Outlaws and other criminals came too.
In 1913, Elizabeth Kite wrote about the pine barrens, saying the people there were uneducated and many were criminals. Later, she said she regretted writing this because instead of helping the people in the pine barrens, newspapers made things worse.
People in the Pine Barrens made charcoal, glass, cabinets, paper, and bricks. In the 1800s and 1900s, people came to the Pine Barrens to find jobs.
Pine barrens
Pine barrens are a type of habitat. It is a place where a few pine trees grow. A pine barren does not have enough trees to be a forest. A pine barren is one type of savannah. There are pine barrens in the eastern half of North America, in the United States and Canada.
The soil in a pine barren has a lot of acid and sand in it. Water flows through the soil instead of staying in it. Pine barren soil does not make good farms.
Because pine barrens have fires, droughts, and frost during the growing season, the trees never grow enough to form a canopy. They never form a "roof" that stops the sunlight. That means that sunlight can touch the ground in a pine barren. That means that small plants that need a lot of light can grow there.
The trees in pine barrens can be jack pine, pitch pine, red pine, and some white pine. Northern pin oak, black cherry, and aspen can grow in pine barrens, but these trees do not grow as tall as they do in other places. Many shrubs, grasses, and ferns also grow in pine barrens. For example, there can be blueberries, bracken fern, and reindeer lichen. Most of the plants in the pine barren have some special thing or ability that helps them with fire. For example, the pitch pine has thick bark. Its cones open when they are near fire.
Many animals without bones live in pine barrens. For example, there are butterflies and grasshoppers. Birds that eat these animals live there too.
Pine barrens form where the ground is not too steep. For example, they form in glacial plains, outwash plains, and lakeplains.
Human beings can hurt pine barrens by cutting down the pine trees for wood, by bringing plants from other parts of the world there, and by stopping the natural fires. When human beings stop fires, other types of trees can grow in the pine barren, and it becomes a forest instead. Then, the small plants that need a lot of sunlight die.
