Vasoconstriction occurs when blood vessels become narrower because of the tightening of the muscles in their walls.
Its opposite is vasodilation, which is when blood vessels widen.
For example, when you are cold, blood vessels near the skin vasoconstrict so that you don't lose too much heat from your blood.
When blood vessels vasoconstrict, this increases blood pressure.
Sometimes, blood pressure is too high and this can cause heart disease, so people have to take medicine to make the muscles in the blood vessels relax.

"A Boy Named Sue" is a song written by Shel Silverstein.
It was first made popular by Johnny Cash.
Cash was at the height of his popularity when he recorded the song live at California's San Quentin State Prison at a concert on February 24, 1969.
The concert was taped by Granada Television.
It was later shown as a television program.
Carl Perkins played guitar during the performance.
The sound recording of the concert was later released on Cash's At San Quentin album by Columbia Records.
Cash also sang the song as a comedy performance in December 1969 at Madison Square Garden.
The song became Cash's biggest hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
It was his only top ten single there, spending three weeks at No.
2 in 1969.
The track also topped the Billboard Hot Country Songs and Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks charts that same year.
It was certified Gold on August 14, 1969, by the RIAA.
Shel Silverstein's recording was released the same year as "Boy Named Sue".
It was a single on his album Boy Named Sue (and His Other Country Songs).
It was produced by Chet Atkins and Felton Jarvis.
The story of the song was inspired by the writer Jean Shepherd, a close friend of Shel Silverstein.
He was often made fun of as a child because of his feminine-sounding name.
In his autobiography, Cash wrote that he had just been given the song and only read it a couple of times.
It was included in that concert just to try it out.
He did not know the words when he first sang it.
On the video recording, he can be seen regularly looking at a piece of paper.
Cash was surprised at how well the song went over with the audience.

The triangular trade refers to trade between three ports or regions.
Triangular trade usually develops when a region is exporting resources that are not needed in the region from which its main imports come.
Instead, the resources are exported to a third region.
The routes involved were historically also shaped by the winds and currents during the age of sailing ships.
The best-known triangular trading systems were across the Atlantic Ocean, especially the Atlantic slave trade, which lasted from the late 16th to early 19th centuries.
During this time, European countries such as Britain, Spain and France had colonies in the Americas and Africa.
The ships carrying slaves, crops and manufactured goods between West Africa, the Caribbean and American colonies and the colonial powers in Europe.
The use of African slaves was very important to growing colonial cash crops, which were exported to Europe.
European goods, in turn, were used to buy African slaves, which were then brought west from Africa to the Americas to work on the crops.
The middle passage of the triangular trade refers to the transportation of the slaves to America.
The Atlantic economy was tied into the idea of mercantilism, which thought it was a good idea for European countries to have a lot of colonies that traded only with them.
Goods that were traded in the Atlantic economy were rum, slaves, sugar, tobacco, gold, spices, fish, lumber and manufactured goods.
Triangular trading became less common in the 20th century due to free trade and ships specialized for particular cargoes.

The waistline is the part of a piece of clothing that sits on the wearer's waist.
The actual position of the waitline can be different depending on the fashion or how the person chooses to wear the garment, but it is normally just above the hips.
Waistlines can be secured with a variety of methods, such as buttons, knots and zippers.
A waistband is a strip of elastic rubber that adjusts to keep the item tight against the body.

Heliocentrism is the idea that the Earth and other planets revolve around the Sun, which is the center of the solar system.
Many people proposed heliocentrism, such as Aristarchus of Samos from ancient Greece, but Nicolaus Copernicus was the first to think of good reasons why it is true.
This was the beginning of modern astronomy.
Before Copernicus, most people thought that the Sun and the other planets revolved around the Earth (this was called geocentrism).
This is because if you stand on Earth, it looks like the Sun and stars are moving across the sky.
However, when people watched for many years they saw many things that did not make sense if the Earth was the center of the Solar system.
For example, sometimes the planets seemed to move back and forth instead of moving around the Earth.
Copernicus explained why these things happen in 1543, when he published the book De revolutionibus orbium coelestium ("On the revolutions of the heavenly spheres").
This gave his reasons for thinking the Sun was at the center instead.
Other astronomers who made further advances after Copernicus were Johannes Kepler and Galileo Galilei.
For example, Kepler showed that the planets do not orbit in perfect circles, and Galileo built very good telescopes that helped to confirm the heliocentric model.
Copernicus also thought that the sun was the center of the universe, but we now know that this is incorrect.
The Sun is part of the Milky Way galaxy which is one out of billions of galaxies.
On the Revolutions; translation of De Revolutionibus with commentary by Edward Rosen, Baltimore, Johns Hopkins University Press, 1992, .
Trance describes a state of mind.
A trance is when a person is conscious, and not sleeping, but is unaware of what is happening around him or her.
The term trance is associated with hypnosis, meditation, magic, flow, religion, and certain kinds of music.
It is an "altered state of consciousness".
There are many efforts to define what a trance is.
Some think it is a borderland between normal consciousness and spirituality
The most straightforward example is when a person is hypnotized, they are in a trance.
Conscious, and responding to the hypnotist, the person seems to block out other thoughts and other information.
Another common example is the day-dream, where a person's mind drifts across private thoughts.
Everyone daydreams, but young children constantly daydream, and have vivid imaginary fantasies.
This is entirely normal.
In the language of psychology, this kind of temporary separation from one's surroundings is called "dissociation".
Research shows that a lot is going on when we daydream.
There are many examples of trance in religion.
African animistic religions, such as that of the Yoruba, feature dances in celebration of the spirits.
Under the influence of rhythm and song, a group dances, often for hours at a time.
During this time, various members of the group may fall into trances, and some may act as if possessed by one of the spirits being worshiped.
States of "spiritual ecstasy" are known in most forms of Christian worship.
It is a main part of those aspects of religion known as "mysticism".
The Spitzer Space Telescope is a telescope launched into space by NASA in 2003.
It is the fourth telescope in the Great Observatories program (the Hubble Space Telescope was the first).
The Hubble Space Telescope takes pictures of visible light, and the Spitzer Space Telescope takes pictures of infrared light.
Unlike Hubble, Spitzer orbits the Sun instead of the Earth.
The Spitzer Space Telescope is named after the scientist Lyman Spitzer.
It was planned to last for 2.5 years, but it actually lasted until 2009 when it exhausted its supply of coolant.
Some parts of the telescope can work even when they are warm, and are still working.
The Spitzer Space Telescope was able to see very good detail.
Spitzer was the first telescope that could see light from extrasolar planets (planets outside the Solar System.)
It was also able to see some of the first stars in the universe, believed to be only 100 million years after the Big Bang.

In cosmology, the age of the universe is the amount of time since the Big Bang.
The best measurement of the age of the Universe is 13.8 billion years (specifically, 13.798±0.037 billion years).
The most recent and most accurate measurements were made by the Planck spacecraft.
These measurements were made using the cosmic microwave background radiation and the expansion of the Universe.
In the 1800s, evidence from geology showed that the Earth was at least millions of years old.
Later, it was thought that the universe was unchanging.
However, in the 1920s, Georges Lemaître and Edwin Hubble determined that the universe was expanding (see Hubble's law).
Although the estimates made using the initial data were low, radioactive dating on Earth could be used to give measurements of 11–20 billion years to 13–15 billion years.
Eventually, scientists were able to make much better measurements using spacecraft.
In grammar, the nominative case is the grammatical case used when talking about the subject of the sentence.
For example, "the boy kissed the girl."
In grammar, the genitive case is the grammatical case used when talking about possession: something that belongs to someone.
For example, in the sentence "the boy's bike was red," the bike belongs to the boy.
The word "boy's" is in the genitive case.
NuSTAR is a telescope launched into space by NASA in 2012.
It is the eleventh satellite in the "Small Explorer" program.
Telescopes in space can see much better than on Earth, because the telescopes on Earth need to look through the atmosphere.
NuSTAR measures high-energy X-rays, which have a much higher frequency than visible light.
It uses special optical devices to do this, so it works differently from a normal telescope.
This type of telescope is called a Wolter telescope.
NuSTAR is searching for black holes.
It is also looking at supernovae to help understand how the chemical elements are created.
One of the first discoveries made by NuSTAR, along with another space telescope called XMM-Newton, was to measure the spin rate of a supermassive black hole for the first time.

Carmelo Flores Laura (likely born July 16, 1906 – June 9, 2014) was a centenarian from Bolivia, who some believed to be born in 1890.
That would have made him the person living to be the oldest ever known.
However, other documents was found, that indicated he was actually born in 1906.
Flores himself only said that he was about 100 years or more, which in that case  was correct.
Carmelo Flores Laura worked for the rancher who owned Frasquia, a rural area of Bolivia near Lake Titicaca, until 1952.
At that time, the government seized the land and redistributed it to peasants such as Flores.
He has lived there since, never traveling father than La Paz,  from his home.
Flores had three children, one of which is alive as of 2013 (Cecilio, aged 67).
He has 40 grandchildren and 19 great-grandchildren.
His wife died in the 2000s.
A police ID card and entry in the civil registry stating Flores was born on July 16, 1890 were shown to reporters.
The longest fully documented lifespan in history is 122 years and 164 days, achieved by France's Jeanne Calment.
Flores himself only said "I should be about 100 years old or more," when asked about his age.
The Gerontology Research Group found a baptismal certificate that indicated Flores was actually 107 years rather than 123.

A bipolar junction transistor (BJT or bipolar transistor) is a type of transistor that relies on the contact of two types of semiconductor in order for it to work.
BJTs can be used as amplifiers, switches, or in oscillators.
BJTs can be found either on their own, or in large numbers as parts of integrated circuits.
They are named bipolar transistors because their operation involves both electrons and holes.
The current gained is measured in hfe, Forward Current Gain.
Typical amount can be between 200-350.

Darwin's finches, also known as the Galapagos finches, are finches that live on the Galápagos Islands.
They are not actually finches, but they are a kind of passerine bird.
Charles Darwin used the finches to provide evidence for natural selection.
He realized that the finches have different beaks because they are adapted to eat different kinds of food.
For example, a finch with a big beak is very good at cracking open nuts, and a finch with a long beak is very good at catching insects.
Darwin was able to see that the finches had a common ancestor which is why they were so similar except for their beaks.
Eventually, this led to the theory of evolution.

African art is art made in Africa or by Africans.
Although the term itself is debatable, as there are few other continents whose art is grouped in this way, and given the differences between individual countries within Africa, historically art from Africa has often been considered in this way.

A fugue state (dissociative fugue or psychogenic fugue) is a rare psychiatric disorder.
It involves temporary loss of memory (amnesia).
It usually only lasts a short time (from hours to days), but can last months or longer.
In a fugue state, the person not only forgets all about who they are, but may suddenly adopt a new identity.
They may leave home and wander, settle in another area with a new name.
Fugue occurs to avoid stress and anxiety.
After the fugue state comes to an end, the person recovers the memories they lost, but usually forgets all that happened during the fugue.

Pico do Fogo ("Fire peak") is the highest peak of Cape Verde, rising to  above sea level.
It is an active stratovolcano lying on the island of Fogo.
The last eruption of the main volcanic cone was in 1675 and all the people living in the island had to leave.
A lateral vent (the opening of a volcano from which lava flows) erupted in 1995.
The only deadly eruption was in 1847 when earthquakes produced in all the island claimed several lives.
Volcanic lava has reached the eastern coast of the island in historical times.
Its most spectacular feature is a volcanic crater (or caldera, caldeira in Portuguese) that is about  wide, with a border (bordeira in Portuguese) that is about  high.
The crater has a slit in its eastern wall, and a large peak like a volcanic cone rises in its center that.
The central cone is the highest point of the island (2829 m) and its peak is about 100 m higher than the bordeira that surrounds the crater.
The lowest elevation of the floor of the caldeira, known as Chã das Caldeiras ("Plain of the Calderas") is .
There are, within the caldeira, two villages which were evacuated during the last eruption.
Traditionally, grapes are grown on the inner slopes of the bordeira and there is some subsistence agriculture on the caldeira floor.
The Fea's petrel (Pterodroma feae), a Near Threatened species of bird, breeds in this mountain.
The endemic plants Echium vulcanorum and Erysimum caboverdeanum are only known to occur on the outer rim of the volcano.

Geoffrey II, called Martel ("the Hammer"), was a French nobleman who was the Count of Anjou from 1040 to 1060.
He was the last count who was a male line descendant of Ingelger.
The countship passed through his sister Ermengarde-Blanche of Anjou to her son Geoffrey III.
Geoffrey was born 14 October 1006.
He was the son of Fulk the Black and Hildegard of Lorraine.
As the count of Vendome,  Geoffrey married Agnes of Burgundy.
About 1038 Geoffrey was asked by Herbert Braco to help him against Gervais, the Bishop of Le Mans.
During the short war between them Geoffrey broke his hip.
This caused Geoffrey to have to transfer some of his vassals to Bishop Gervais.
At his father's death in 1040 Geoffrey Martel succeeded him.
Along with king Henry I of France Geoffrey maintained a war against the count Theobald of Blois.
As the power of Blois was reduced the power of Anjou increased.
But Geoffrey became too powerful and by the late 1040s the king turned against him.
About 1047 Geoffrey began to look to the north for more land.
Geoffrey attacked the castle of Château-du-Loir owned by Bishop Gervais.
He did not capture the castle but burned some of it.
Geoffrey did capture Bishop Gervais who he threw in prison.
The Council of Reims in 1049 ordered Geoffrey to release his captive bishop or they would excommunicate him.
Even when the pope did excommunicate Geoffrey the following year he would not release the Bishop.
Geoffrey next acquired the castles of Alençon and Domfront on the southern border of Normandy.
From there he raided into Normandy.
In 1051 Duke William moved against Domfront but was not able to defeat the fortress.
William then set up a siege of the castle to force it to surrender.
This caused Geoffrey to leave Maine and return to Anjou.
In early 1052 a political shift occurred.
King Henry I reconciled with Geoffrey Martel and about the same time he turned against Duke William of Normandy.
In the same year, 1052, when the count of Maine, Hugh, died Geoffrey took over Maine without a fight.
He ruled Maine until his death.
Bishop Gervaise finally purchased his freedom from Geoffrey by giving him Château-du-Loir and promising not to return to Le Mans.
Gervais went to the court of Duke William of Normandy.
Another event in 1052 in Normandy would bring King Henry and Count Geoffrey together against William of Normandy.
William of Arques, a vassal and relative of Duke William rebelled.
In 1053 the king, along with Geoffrey of Anjou entered Normandy to assist William of Arques against Duke William.
The duke had laid siege to the castle of Arques.
But the relief effort failed and King Henry and count Geoffrey were forced to leave Normandy.
In 1054 the King, accompanied by Geoffrey Martel again raided into Normandy.
The king's brother, Odo, led a second force which attacked Normandy from the west.
Odo's forces were defeated causing the king and count Geoffrey to leave Normandy again.
In 1058 Geoffrey was visited by the king in Anjou.
The two planned their next attacks on Normandy.
In August of that year the two led a combined force into Normandy to pillage and burn what they could.
At a crossing of the Dives River their force was caught by the rising tide.
Geoffrey and the king were on the other side when the bulk of their army was attacked and defeated by Duke William.
All Geoffrey and the king could do was leave Normandy as fast as they could.
The king's death in the summer of 1060 and Geoffrey's death in November of that same year ended their wars.

Family International, which had been called The Children of God, The Family of Love and The Family, is a New Age religion, and a cult.
It was started in the 1960s in California by David Brandt Berg (1919–1994).
Broadly, the Family are a Christian evangelical movement.
However, their beliefs are selective.
Their "spiritual revolution" is against the outside world, which the members called "the System".
After the death of the founder, his widow Karen Zerby became the leader of TFI, taking the title of 'Queen' and 'prophetess.'
She married Steve Kelly, an assistant of David Berg whom Berg had chosen as her 'consort' before his death.
Steve Kelly took the title of 'King Peter' and became the public face of TFI, speaking in a more public capacity than either David Berg or Karen Zerby.
'Flirty Fishing'
In 1974, the group began a method of evangelism called Flirty Fishing.
This meant using sex to "show God's love" and win converts.
The method was apparently extremely successful.
According to TFI, as a result of Flirty Fishing, "over 100,000 received God's gift of salvation through Jesus, and some chose to live the life of a disciple and missionary".
The group encouraged children to have sex with adults and each other.
The High Court of Justice, Family Division, in the UK found there to be "widespread sexual abuse of young children and teenagers by adult members of The Family".
