Foot odor (or foot odour) is a type of body odor that affects the feet of humans.
Some people think it is an unpleasant smell.
Others may enjoy it when they have a foot fetish or olfactophilia (being attracted to certain smells).
A 1994 study found that 45% of people with a foot fetish were also aroused by smelly socks and/or feet.
The main cause of foot odor is foot sweat.
Sweat itself does not smell a lot, but some bacteria can grow better in a sweaty environment, which then cause the odor.
These bacteria are normally on our skin and are not harmful.
Sweating on the feet can be increased by wearing closed shoes or boots.
Especially thick materials such as leather or rubber will hold the sweat in them and can increase the odor intensity.
Certain types of socks can also make the smell stronger.
Odor qualities
The quality (aroma) of foot odor is often described as thick and smelling like cheese.
This is because some of the bacteria that create foot odor (like Brevibacteria) are also used in the production of cheese.
They produce the chemical 3-Methylbutanoic acid, which is a main part that is responsible for the odor.
This chemical is also often used to make perfumes.
Other things that can influence foot smell are the type of socks and shoes a person wears, how long they are worn at a time, and many individual factors, for example if the person does a lot of sports or other physical activities.
Because men sweat more than women, they generally have smellier feet.
The best method for preventing food odor is to maintain a good foot hygiene.
Regular cleaning of the feet removes dead skin cells from the feet, along with sebum (a type of body oil).
This reduces the opportunities for bacteria to cause smelly feet.
By regularly cleaning feet properly, feet will not have a strong foot odor.
A foot file or pumice stone can be used to remove dead skin cells.

In math, the identity property is made up of two parts: the additive identity property and the multiplicative identity property.
The additive identity property says that the sum of adding any number and zero (0) is just the original number.
For that reason, zero is often called the additive identity of common numbers.
The multiplicative identity property says that the product of multiplying any number and one (1) is just the original number.
Also, if you divide a number by itself, the result (quotient) is one.
For that reason, one is often called the multiplicative identity of common numbers.

Iñigo Manterola was born in Orio in 1973.
He was born in a familiar core of sailor tradition.
Since he was little showed a lot of interest by the drawing and the painting.
When he had only 8 years old, his teacher spoke with his mother and aimed him to extracurricular classes of painting.
Because of this passion by the art , Iñigo starts his studies of painting in the Faculty of Fine arts in Bilbao between 1993 and 1998, licensing in the speciality of painting.
After finishing his studies, Iñigo made diverse workshops between which stand out, on the one hand the workshop of MASTER painting OF THE FIGURACIÓN, together with Antonio López García and Juan José Aquerreta , in the School of Architecture of Pamplona in 2006.
On the other hand, the workshop TEXTURES, given by the Australian artist David Kelly with reason o the exhibition AUSTRALIS in the room Kubokutxa of Donostia- San Sebastián in 2010.
Besides, we can stand out  a lot of projects during his artistic path, as well as Way between two waters, of the figuración to the abstraction ,in 2005, multidisciplinary exhibition that presented  to the Gallery ISPILU of Zarautz as in Madrid in the gallery JOVENART.
In 2007 Animated Paintings, a seasickness in the Bay of Biscay, in the gallery 3And of Bilbao.

If there is something that stand out in the path of Iñigo is his constant and vital evolution.

After devoting him  15 years  exclusively to the painting, began to incorporate in his projects another type of disciplines like the sculpture, the photography and the installation, with spirit to go growing in his work.

As Iñigo was born in a family of sailor tradition, his thematic shows  prompt to the balcony of the pesqueros of bajura, the arrantzales and the bustle of the port.
And it has not changed until today, I save in his exercises, that submerge it by a time in the language no figurativo.
Also Manterola  has worked the sculpture, converting each piece in an only piece using different materials so much the iron , steel cut ,copper , iron galvanised , nylon, stainless steel, resin or iron painted.
Another of the appearances to stand out of Manterola is that it believes in the synergies and in the collaborations with other artists and disciplines.
It says that it exists a mutual enrichment in all maridaje.
Proof of this are the exercises with artists like Gorka Larrañaga and Samuel Dougados, the project UNYON beside Ivory Jewellers and, more recently, the collaboration with the chef French Hélène Darroze, that has 3 stars Michelin, for the one who has designed the servilleteros of his restaurant of Paris and where in each table luce one of his sculptures.

The Lecompton Constitution (1857) was one of four proposed constitutions for the state of Kansas.
It was written by pro-slavery people.
It included parts to allow slavery in the state.
It also had parts to not include free blacks from its bill of rights.
It was defeated on January 4, 1858 by a majority of voters in the Kansas Territory.
The rejection of the Lecompton Constitution, and the admission of Kansas to the Union as a free state, showed the unusual and fraudulent voting practices.
These practices had been used in earlier efforts by bushwhackers and border ruffians to create a state constitution in Kansas that allowed slavery.
The Topeka Constitution was written before the Lecompton Constitution.
The Leavenworth and Wyandotte Constitutions were written after the Lecompton Constitution.
The Wyandotte Consitution became the Kansas state constitution.
The document was written in response to the anti-slavery 1855 Topeka Constitution.
That constitution was written by James H. Lane and other free-state people.
The territorial legislature was filled mostly with slave owners.
They met at the chosen capital of Lecompton in September 1857.
They met there to write a document that would compete against the other constitutions.
Most actual settlers were anti-slavery.
They [boycott]ed the vote.
Territorial governor of Kansas, Robert J. Walker, was very pro-slavery.
However, he was against the obvious unfairness of the Constitution.
He quit being governor so he did not have to enforce it.
President James Buchanan was very pro-slavery, so he supported the Lecompton Constitution when it was sent to Congress.
The president received the support of the Southern Democrats.
However, many Northern Democrats, led by Stephen A. Douglas, voted with the Republicans to be against the constitution.

Dalmatian was a Romance language, which was spoken in Dalmatia, on the Eastern Adriatic Sea.
The language became extinct in the Middle Ages.
In places it was used until the 18th or 19th century.
Today, few sources are left.
Only the dialect of Veglia (Krk) and Ragusa (Dubrovnik) have enough sources so they can be studied.
From the other dialects, there are only isloate words, or short phrases.
In 1897, the scholar Matteo Bartoli, himself a native of nearby Istria, visited postman Tuone Udaina (), nicknamed burbur ('barber' in Dalmatian) the last known speaker of any Dalmatian dialect, to study his language.
Bartoli wrote down approximately 2,800 words, stories, and accounts of his life, which were published in a book in German () in 1906.
That book has provided much information on the vocabulary, phonology, and grammar of the language.
An arhat is a type of enlightened person in Buddhism.
They have achieved enlightenment by following the teachings of a Buddha.
Many of the Buddha's disciples became arhats.
"Arhat" is a Sanskrit word.
It means "someone who deserves to be to honored."
The ultimate goal in Theravada Buddhism is to become an arhat.
Someone who becomes an arhat is the same as someone who attains enlightenment.
The Buddha is also sometimes called an "arhat."
In Mahayana Buddhism, bodhisattvas are seen as better than arhats.
A bodhisattva will eventually become a Buddha, who can teach all living beings.
An arhat can teach too, but only achieves enlightenment for him or herself.
They are snake gods that live in the ocean and underground in an underworld called "Patala."
They can sometimes appear in human form.
There are three main forms:

Fully serpent
Half-human, half-snake.
A female naga is called a "nagi" or "nagini".
A nagaraja is a king of the nagas.
They are common in Indian mythology and play an important role in many religious traditions.
"Naga" (नाग; nāga)  is a Sanskrit word that means "cobra."
The word is sometimes also used to refer to any kind of snake.
Nagas are very common in Hindu mythology and art.
They are described as a proud and powerful race of semi-divine beings that can take on many forms.
They live in an enchanted underworld filled with jewels, gold and other treasures.
This world is called “Naga-loka” or “Patala-loka”.
The nagas are guardians of treasure and keepers of magic.
They are often seen in bodies of water such as lakes and oceans.
Their power and venom is potentially dangerous to humans.
However, many nagas are benevolent, such as in the story called Samudra manthan, where the Nagaraja Vasuki who lays on Shiva's neck becomes a rope used by the gods and asuras for churning the Ocean of Milk.
Vishnu is often portrayed resting under Shesha’s hood or laying on Shesha, but this symbolism can be found among other deities too.
The serpent is commonly seen in art featuring Ganesha.
Nagas are a common deity in Buddhism.
They usually appear in the form of a giant cobra, with one head or many heads.
Sometimes nagas will use their magic powers to transform into human form.
They are often called "dragons" in English and are understood across Asia as being the same as dragons.
It is believed that nagas live both underground in their own world and in the world of humans.
Some live in the earth in places like caves and caverns while others live in water such as oceans and lakes.
The nagas are the followers of Virupaksha one of the Four Heavenly Kings.
They are also guardians on Mount Sumeru and protect the devas of Trayastrimsha heaven from the asuras.
There is a story of a naga who appeared in human form so that he could become a Buddhist monk.
The Buddha told him that only humans were allowed to become monks.
The naga took the five precepts so that he could be reborn as a human in a future life.
There is also an episode in the Lotus Sutra where the eight year old daughter of the dragon king transforms into a male bodhisattva and then becomes enlightened.
This story may be a reference to the idea that a person must have a male body in order to become a Buddha.
One popular naga in Buddhism is Mucalinda, who is a Naga King and protector of the Buddha.
In the Vinaya Sutra, King Mucalinda uses his hood and seven heads to shelter the Buddha from a storm.
Then the king takes the form of a young Brahmin and worships the Buddha.

He lives on the eastern part of Mount Sumeru.
He is leader of the gandharvas and the pishacas.
In the Pāli writings of the Theravada Buddhist tradition, Dhṛtarāṣṭra is called Dhataraṭṭha.

The first game was so violent and bloody compared to other video games at the time that it was one of the games mentioned in the 1993 congressional hearings on video games.
This later led to the ESRB rating system.
Unsurprisingly, most games in the series are rated M for Mature, which means that the game cannot legally be sold to anyone under the age of 17 in most stores in the United States.
Guest fighters
Starting with the 2011 video game, well-known characters serve as guests for the games.
Due to legal constraints, they only appear only in one game.
There are two guests in MK9, four guests in MKX and five guests in MK11.

Sonic the Hedgehog Spinball, commonly shortened to Sonic Spinball, is a 1993 pinball video game.
It was created by Sega Technical Institute, and it was published by Sega.
It is a spinoff of the Sonic the Hedgehog series.
It takes place in the universe of the Sonic the Hedgehog animated series.
Players control Sonic the Hedgehog, who must stop Doctor Robotnik from enslaving the population in a big pinball-like machine.
Sonic Spinball was created by the American staff of Sega Technical Institute.

When Sega management realized that Sonic 3 would not be finshed in time for the 1993 holiday shopping season, they created another Sonic game.
The game was quickly designed.
It had short time constraints.
Most of the work happened in two months.
Sonic Spinball was released for the Sega Genesis in November 1993 and for the Game Gear and Master System in 1994.

They didn't like the controls.
A second pinball game, Sonic Pinball Party, was created in 2003.
A Sonic Spinball spinning rollercoaster was built in Alton Towers, a British theme park, in 2010.
The game has been rereleased on 11 different consoles.
The Genesis version of the game has been rereleased on the Sonic Mega Collection compilation for the Nintendo GameCube, PlayStation 2, Xbox and PCs, Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, and multiple iterations of the Sega Smash Pack series of compilations.
The Game Gear version is an unlockable game in Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut for the GameCube and PC, as well as Sonic Gems Collection for the GameCube and PlayStation 2.
