Table (furniture)

A **table** is a piece of furniture with a flat top supported by one or more  legs. People put things on a table, often for a short time, for example food and knives and forks, etc. at a meal, cups for drinks, a book, a map, writing paper when writing, and things for hobbies.

We also put things on tables for a longer time, for example a TV, computer or decorations (pretty things). Often we put a cloth on the table, flat on the top. There are traditional ways of putting the cloth, knives and forks and food on the table for meals.

We can make some tables bigger, for example by pulling the top out. We can also fold some tables to transport them better, for example for camping. There are also small tables in trains and planes which we can fold or open. Some round tables come with a Lazy Susan. This is a rotating piece of wood in the center of the table. A table for use outdoors is called a picnic table.

Traditionally, tables in Japan, *chabudai*, are low, sometimes round tables, for tea and food.

The name of the international organization Mensa is from the Latin word for table.

Desso GrassMaster

**Desso GrassMaster** is a sports playing field surface made of natural grass that has artificial fibres added to it.  The unique part of this system is the artificial grass fibres, stuck 20&nbsp;cm deep, which cover 3% of the surface. During the growing process, the roots of the natural grass mix with the man-made grass fibres to anchor the turf to product a stable, solid, and even field with better drainage and better playing comfort.

**Reinforced natural grass** is used for stadium pitches and training pitches used for soccer, rugby, American football and baseball. Reinforced natural grass can also be used for events and concerts. The artificial turf injection shortens the recovery time for the grass. **Reinforced Natural Grass** (also known as **Hybrid Grass**), as the name suggest, is formed by the **mixture of natural** and **artificial fibres**. It was in the year **1990**, when the first generation of **Reinforced Natural Grass** developed. Using **turf**, made up of synthetic fibres, combined with Natural Grass has become extremely popular in recent times. In this case, the artificial fibres are **intertwined** with natural grass roots as they grow. The synthetic fibers help to **stabilize** and **protect** the natural grass, improving growth of natural grass fields.

In 2010, for the first time in history, a FIFA World CupTM was played on grass pitches that were partly made up of artificial grass in the Mbombela Stadium and the Peter Mokaba Stadium.

**Pointe du Hoc** is a place in Normandy in northern France.  It has steep cliffs about 100 m high that drop down toward the sea and a very thin beach at the bottom that is underwater at high tide and dry at low tide. It was important during World War II.

In 1944, Pointe du Hoc was part of Operation Overlord, which was the biggest sea invasion in history.  During World War II, the Allied military commanders planned how to attack France, which had been captured by the German Wehrmacht. The Germans had put very large guns at Pointe du Hoc. There were six 155mm cannons in concrete forts that could shoot at Allied ships and troops that wanted to come on land at Utah Beach and Omaha Beach. 

Allied planes, flying from England, dropped bombs on Pointe du Hoc.  But they did not break the heavy artillery guns, and the Germans moved them away. 

For about five months, the U.S. Rangers trained with British commandos to prepare for their attack on France.  They practiced climbing British cliffs.   

Once the Allied commanders decided to attack France, they used flat-bottomed landing craft made to carry troops onto beaches. These special landing boats were called LCA and LCVP's or Higgins boats. British navy sailors sailed them. The boats were lowered into the sea a few kilometers away from the cliffs. The British had added some extra armour to the sides of the boats to protect them.  This made it harder for the boats to move fast and turn.
 
## Attack 
The American 2nd and 5th Army Ranger Divisions attacked the cliffs at Pointe du Hoc. Colonel James Earl Rudder led the attack.  The attack started at 6:30 a.m of D-Day, when the battleship USS Texas stopped shooting at Pointe du Hoc.   Because the weather was bad, the Rangers' boats drifted in the water and they took an extra half hour to get to the beach.  By then, the Germans had come out of their forts and were ready at the top of the cliff.

The American landing boats reached the beach, and the Army Rangers ran up the beach to the cliffs. The soldiers used ropes attached to rocket-powered grappling hooks to climb the cliffs. Two soldiers carried the ropes and grappling hooks in a wooden box. The soldiers also used ladders that were attached to landing boats and grappling hooks that were shot up from the boats.

When the Rangers reached the top of the cliffs, small groups of soldiers attacked the Germans.  After reaching the forts, where they thought the Germans kept their guns, the Rangers found that the guns were no longer there.  The Rangers went inland and searched for the guns and found them. They used thermite fire grenades to melt important parts of the guns. 

Out of 225 soldiers only 90 were still able to fight when reinforcements came.

5000 metres

The **5000 metres** (about 3.1&nbsp;mi or 16,404&nbsp;ft) is a popular running distance.  It is also known as a **5K** or **5&nbsp;km**.  Colloquially it is called a "**five-K**".  It is one of the track events in the Olympic Games and the World Championships in Athletics.  "5000 metres" refers to racing on a track. "5K" usually refers to a roadrace or cross country event. While mainly run as an outdoor event, the 5000&nbsp;m is sometimes run on an indoor track. Official records are kept for both outdoor and indoor 5000&nbsp;m track events, but not for 5&nbsp;km road races.

Much of the distance's popularity is due to the challenge it gives to both amateurs and professionals.  It is a distance race that demands a great deal of endurance as well as speed.  Strategies also play a key role, and the combination makes it attractive to many.

French toast

**French toast** is a breakfast food made by soaking bread in eggs. 

Milk, sugar or cinnamon are commonly added.  The dish is often topped with powdered sugar, butter, fruit, syrup, or other items.  According to what is popular in local cuisine, many of the spices that are added to bread or egg dishes are in cooking. 

In the United Kingdom, it is sometimes known as *Eggy Bread*. It is a Christmas time dessert in Portugal and Brazil called rabanada. And is an Easter dessert in Spain called torrijas.
Cortisol

**Cortisol** also called the stress hormone, is produced in the adrenal gland. It is a cortiocosteroid, often known as a steroid hormone. 

The purpose of cortisol is to help the body:
* metabolize glucose
* control blood pressure
* suppress immunity
* an inflammatory response
Corticosteroids can also be used to replace certain hormones to treat illnesses. Addison’s disease is one. 

## Actions 
### Corticosteroids
A Synthetic hormone normally produced by the adrenal glands. They’re used to treat conditions like:
*asthma
*allergic rhinitis and hayfever
*atopic eczema
*urticaria (hives)
*chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
*painful and inflamed joints, muscles and tendons
*lupus
*inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) – including Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis
*giant cell arteritis and polymyalgia rheumatica
*multiple sclerosis (MS)

Entoprocta

**Entoprocta**, or **Kamptozoa**, is a phylum of tiny sessile aquatic animals ranging from 0.1 to 7 millimetres (0.004 to 0.28 in) long. Mature individuals are goblet-shaped, on relatively long stalks. They are filter-feeders, with a crown of tentacles whose cilia generate water currents towards the mouth. Both the mouth and anus lie inside the crown. The superficially similar Bryozoa (Ectoprocta) have the anus outside a 'crown' of hollow tentacles. Most families of entoprocts are colonial, and all but 2 of the 150 species are marine. A few solitary species can move slowly.

Some species eject unfertilized ova into the water while others keep their ova in brood chambers until they hatch, and some of these species use placenta-like organs to nourish the developing eggs. After hatching, the larvae swim for a short time and then settle on a surface. There they metamorphose, and the larval gut generally rotates by up to 180°, so that the mouth and anus face upwards. Both colonial and solitary species also reproduce by cloning.

Some species of nudibranchs (sea slugs) and flatworms prey on entoprocts. A few entoproct species have been found living in close association with other animals. 

Fossils of entoprocts are very rare and the earliest specimens that have been identified with confidence date from the Upper Jurassic. Most studies from 1996 onwards have regarded entoprocts as members of the Trochozoa, which also includes molluscs and annelids. However, a study in 2008 concluded that entoprocts are closely related to bryozoans.

## Names
'Entoprocta' means 'anus inside'. The alternative name 'Kamptozoa', means 'bent' or 'curved' animals. Some authors use *Entoprocta*, while others prefer *Kamptozoa*.

**Ryszard Kaczorowski** (born 26 November  1919 in Białystok - died 10 April 2010 in Smolensk, near Katyn Forest) was a Polish politician and statesman. He was the last President of Poland within Government in Exile. It originated from early days of the World War II and was internationally recognized until 1945. 

Kaczorowski was active in Polish scouting movement, organized anti-Soviet resistance in 1939-1940. He was arrested, sentenced to death, which was commuted to 10 years of hard labour. He was then released in 1941. He joined Anders Army and fought in a battle of Monte Cassino. Kaczorowski decided to remain in exile in the United Kingdom after the establishment of the communist government. He worked for many years as economist, but never became a British citizen.

Lord Don't Slow Me Down

'''''Lord Don't Slow Me Down''''' is a rockumentary movie.  It looks back on British band Oasis' ''Don't Believe the Truth'' world tour.  The tour took place from May 2005 to March 2006.  The movie is directed by Baillie Walsh. It went platinum in the UK.

## Pre-release
A handful of fans-only private screenings took place around the world. The world premiere of the movie at the Directors Guild Theater in New York City on 4 November 2006 as part of the CMJ Film Festival.

The movie was first shown to go along with Oasis' compilation album *Stop the Clocks*, released on 20 November 2006. A preview of the movie was included on the Let There Be Love DVD single, released in November 2005.

The movie features a new Oasis song also called "Lord Don't Slow Me Down", written by Noel Gallagher and recorded during the Don't Believe the Truth sessions. Gallagher described it as being ''"one of the best things, like The Who, The Yardbirds and the Jeff Beck Group combined, and it's got two drum solos on it!"*.   He has also said that his girlfriend thought it was the only Oasis song you could dance to.  The song was left off *Don't Believe the Truth'' because Gallagher felt that including it would have meant he'd have been singing too many songs on the record. Italian footballer  Alessandro Del Piero also appears in the video signing a shirt for Noel.

Velvet

.]]
]]
**Velvet** is a type of woven tufted fabric in which the cut threads are very evenly distributed, with a short dense pile, giving it a distinctly smooth feel.

Velvet can be made from many different fibres. It is woven on a special loom that weaves two pieces of velvet at the same time. The two pieces are then cut apart and the two lengths of fabric are wound on separate take-up rolls. Velvet is difficult to clean due to its pile, but modern dry cleaning methods perform well.

Velvet is made, ideally, from silk. More recently, synthetic velvets have been developed, mostly polyester, nylon, viscose, acetate, and mixtures of different synthetics, or synthetics and natural fibers (e.g. viscose and silk). A small percentage of lycra is used sometimes to give stretch.

## History 
The art of velvet-weaving probably originated in medieval Kashmir around the beginning of the fourteenth century. King Richard II of England directed in his will that his body should be clothed *in velveto* in 1399.

The earliest sources of European artistic velvets were weavers in Lucca, Genoa, Florence and Venice.

Nemertea

**Nemertea** is a phylum of invertebrate animals also known as *ribbon worms* or *proboscis worms*. Alternative spellings for the phylum have included *Nemertini* and *Nemertinea*. *Rhynchocoela* is a name used primarily in North America but gradually abandoned since the 1980s.

## Anatomy
Nemertean worms are long, thin, animals without segments. They have no true head, although the anterior end is often slightly wider than the body. They are distinguished by the presence of an eversible proboscis. This is kept inside the body, but pushed out to catch prey.

Nemerteans collect food with their proboscis, which is closely associated with the digestive system. At rest, the proboscis is inside a long tube that may take up a considerable portion of the worm's length, lying just above the gut. It is attached to the posterior end of this tube by a muscle that pulls it back inside after feeding. At the anterior end, the tube opens into a small cavity close to the brain, and then to the outside through a pore at the anterior tip of the animal. The longest animal on record is a female blue whale, 29.9m long.

Abu Dhabi United Group

**The Abu Dhabi United Group for Development and Investment (ADUG)** is a United Arab Emirates (UAE) private equity company owned by Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan. He is a member of the Abu Dhabi Royal Family. He is also the Minister of Presidential Affairs for the UAE. It was first thought that Abu Dhabi United Group is a part of Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, a sovereign wealth fund owned by Abu Dhabi. But Abu Dhabi United Group had denied connection to the government of Abu Dhabi.

The Group bought Manchester City Football Club.  The deal was announced on 1 September 2008. It was made between the club’s former owner Thaksin Shinawatra, former Prime Minister of Thailand, and ADUG.

The American educated Sulaiman Al-Fahim was the public face of ADUG during the beginning of the takeover.  He is often called the "Donald Trump of Abu Dhabi". The takeover was completed on 23 September 2008.
