Oil well

An oil well is a well to get petroleum from the ground. People in the petroleum industry look for a place that might have oil. They drill a hole deep in the ground and, if the oil is there, then pump it up from the hole. Most oil is very deep underground.
Oil wells can be classified by purpose:
Production wells produce gas or oil.
Appraisal wells determine the characteristics of a hydrocarbon accumulation.
Exploration wells explore for new oil and gas.
Wildcat wells explore areas which are not near known gas or oil fields.
Active wells can also be categorized as:
Oil producers may produce some gas, but they primarily produce liquid hydrocarbons.
Gas producers primarily produce gaseous hydrocarbons and aquifer producers primarily produce water to for the purpose of re-injecting it into the ground to manage the pressure of gas or oil wells.
Water injectors inject the water that is removed from the aquifer producers, as well as disposal of any water obtained during gas or oil production.
Gas injectors inject gas into reservoirs to maintain the reservoir's pressure, as well as for disposal and sequestering of gas that cannot be immediately used.
Wells may be straight holes, or directionally drilled:
Straight(vertical) holes wells are those drilled to targets essentially beneath the surface location of the well, although some small deviation in the well bore can occur during the drilling process.
Directionally drilled wells are those which are drilled to targets not directly beneath the surface location of the well. Directionally drilled wells can be classified further into Straight kick, S- kick and horizontal wells.
In straight kick wells, the well bore is deviated until the desired angle is achieved. This angle is maintained all the way to the bottom of the hole.
In S-kick wells, the well bore is deviated to achieve the desired horizontal displacement and then returns to a vertical direction before penetrating the producing zone. The term "S-kick" is derived from the shape of the course.
Horizontal wells, as the name implies, are deviated until the well bore achieves a horizontal direction. The well bore may then continue in the horizontal direction for hundreds or even thousands of feet, depending on results desired.

Catapult

A catapult is a type of machine used as a weapon to throw rocks, large arrows, or other things such as hot tar, that would cause damage to something else. Often, catapults were set on higher ground or on castle towers to let them shoot farther. They shot rocks to break castle walls, or pitch or hot tar to set the target on fire.
Catapults use weights and levers to send the rocks or other things into the air. They do not throw as far as modern weapons do, and are not useful in modern warfare. Catapults were common in the past, especially the Middle Ages.
Nowadays catapults are used to study old weapons, and as experiments (for example in physics or engineering classes). Some old ones are kept in museums.
Aircraft carriers use much more powerful steam catapults to throw airplanes into the air.

Agalychnis saltator

The parachuting red-eyed leaf frog or misfit leaf frog (Agalychnis saltator) is a frog that lives in Nicaragua and Costa Rica. Scientists have seen it between 15 and 1300 meters above sea level.
The adult male frog is 34 to 54 mm long from nose to rear end and the adult female frog is 57 to 66 mm long. It has red eyes with pupils that go up and down and open side to side. There is webbing on its back and front feet and disks on its toes for climbing.
The frog's skin is green and it sometimes has yellow spots. Its sides can be blue or purple. It has a yellow-white or orange-white belly.
For most of the year, this frog lives in the canopy, the tops of trees in primary forest. When it is time to lay eggs, these frogs go to swamps.
This frog is called a parachuting frog because male frogs in mating season will jump from high plants onto low plants. It spreads the webbing on its toes as it falls.

Translator

A translator works with different languages. They may read something written in one language and speak it or write it in another language or vice versa. For example, they might read a book in French and then translate it into English. See translation for more information.
In order to convert meanings from one language into another one, translators must be able to know the target language deeply. They are conveying the original meaning of the source text or material to a second language. As a result, translators do not only convert words, which makes it more like an art than a science.
Translators also work to convert speech as well as writing. The United Nations debates are translated as they are spoken, one individual translator for every individual language if it is the General Assembly.
One advantage of professional translation is that it reduces the problems of understanding what is said. On the other hand, there is often a loss of nuance (subtlety) in a translations, especially one done immediately the text is spoken. For this reason, many translators do a rough version immediately, and then work it over later on.

Mommie Dearest (movie)

Mommie Dearest is a 1981 American biographical psychological drama movie directed by Frank Perry and starring Faye Dunaway, Steve Forrest, Mara Hobel, Diana Scarwid and Xander Berkeley. The movie shows Christina Crawford's adoptive mother, Hollywood actress Joan Crawford, as an abusive, controlling and manipulative mother. Christina and her brother Christopher are suffering child abuse from their mother.
Cast
Production
The movie was adapted for the screen by Robert Getchell, Tracy Hotchner, Frank Perry, and Frank Yablans from Christina's 1978 autobiography of the same name. The executive producers were Christina's husband, David Koontz, and Terry O'Neill, Dunaway's then-boyfriend and soon-to-be husband. The movie was distributed by Paramount Pictures, the only one of the "Big Eight" movie studios for which Crawford had never appeared in a movie.
Reception
The movie was not considered successful at the box office, making just over $19 million in North America from a $10 million budget. Despite receiving mostly negative reviews from movie critics, the movie's melodramatic script and Faye Dunaway's acting, made it a cult movie and an "unintentional comedy". It is often considered one of the worst movies ever made. It was nominated for nine Golden Raspberry Awards (Razzies) at the 2nd Golden Raspberry Awards, and won five, including "Worst Picture" and "Worst Actress" for Faye Dunaway.
