A foundation is the lowest part of a building.
A building needs a strong foundation if it is to stand for a long time.
A heavier building or softer soil needs a deeper foundation.
To make a foundation, engineers dig a trench in the ground.
They dig until they reach solid ground.
When the trench is deep enough, it is filled it with strong, hard material.
Sometimes concrete is used.
Concrete can be made stronger by putting long thin round pieces of steel into the trench.
When the concrete dries, the steel ties the foundation together.
We call this reinforced concrete.
Once the foundation has been packed down tightly, or dried hard, construction can start.
A foundation is a kind of company set up to carry out charity or research work.
A foundation is usually endowed, which means it is given a large sum of money to do its work.

The people running the foundation think of ways to use the money to help charities, the arts, or whatever they like.

The Apalachee occupied the site of Velda Mound starting about 1450 CE.
They had left the area before the Spanish came in the 17th century.
They first saw Spanish explorers in the 16th century.
This is when the Hernando de Soto expedition arrived.
They lived between the Aucilla River and Ochlockonee River, at the head of Apalachee Bay.
This was an area known to Europeans as the Apalachee Province.
The Spaniards had created Catholic missions throughout their province by the early 1600s.
The Apalachee were farmers and noted warriors.
By 1655 there were eight towns, each with a mission.
In addition to the Spanish, each town had an Apalachee population of between 6,000–8000.
The British with their Creek allies often raided the Apalachee and Spanish towns.
In 1703 a British army and hundreds of Creek warriors attacked the territory.
The Apalachee were nearly destroyed.
The survivors, who numbered about 1400, dispersed.
Over time many Apalachee mixed in with other groups, particularly the Creek Confederacy.
Others found protection with the French in what is now Alabama and Louisanna.
About 300 descendants in Rapides Parish, Louisiana, claim an Apalachee identity today.
The Apalachee spoke a Muskogean language called Apalachee.
The language is now extinct.

Meaning is a term in linguistics and philosophy.
It is also a word in everyday life.
The basic idea is this: meaning is the information which is sent by speech or messages.
What that information is can be inferred by a listener or reader.
Meaning makes sense as part of a conversation between two or more people.
The bits of a conversation, like questions and answers, suggestions and explanations, work to help the meaning get across.
Requests and instructions are other types of communication which depend on meaning.
Although humans use language to carry meaning, non-verbal communication definitely has meaning.
In fact it is far more ancient than human language, and interpreting its meaning is mostly done by the unconscious mind.
Messages travel by scent and sight as well as sound.
Humans do some of this as well as almost all animals.
In humans, facial expressions and the sense of touch are very important.
All these things have meaning.

The Korat is a natural breed of cat.
It is also one of the oldest cat breeds.
It first lived in Thailand.
It is named after a province named "Korat" by the local people.
The Korat is known as one of the "good luck cats".
The Korat is a blue-gray colour with a small to medium stocky or "cobby" body.
It can be surprisingly heavy for its size.
It is intelligent, active, playful and likes to be with people.
It has a heart-shaped head and large green eyes.
The Korat's colour is actually a silver blue that looks like it is shimmering.
The people of Thailand call the colour "rain-cloud gray," and the shimmer "sea foam."
This cat has one coat of fur that is short.
The roots of the fur are a lighter silver blue.
The colour along the fur increases to deeper blue and the tips are silver, especially on the muzzle and toes.
This is the only colour allowed for a Korat.
The eyes are large and peridot green in an adult cat.
Kittens have amber or golden-green eyes which gradually change as they become adults, at two to four years.
Korats may rarely have some white markings or spots, or even pale gray stripes.
Sometimes these spots increase in size as the cat gets older.
These are flaws in the colour, and these cats are not allowed in cat shows.
Even though the colour is wrong, they are still healthy cats.
The first time the Korat breed was written about in books was in a poem written in Thailand, between 1350 and 1767 AD.
The book is now in the national library in Bangkok.
But the drawing of the Korat in this book did not have enough detail to positively say it is this breed.
In more recent years, the Korat was pictured on a postage stamp in Thailand.
A Korat cat first appeared in Britain with the name "Blue Siamese" in 1889 and 1896.
But these solid blue cats did not meet the cat show standards for a Siamese cat, so they disappeared by 1901.
In the United States, a Korat first appeared in the 1950s.
In 1959, Cedar Glen cattery was the first to import a pair of Korats to the U.S. for breeding.
They were a male named Nara and a female named Darra.
In 1966, the Korat was first allowed to be shown for championship status, by a breeder from Maryland.

The island of Panglao has an area of .
The island had a population, as of 2010, of 68,051, for a population density of  inhabitants/km2.
The island is in the northern part of the Bohol Sea (or Mindanao Sea), to the southwest of the island of Bohol and to the east of the island of Cebu.
Panglao is separated from the Bohol island by a narrow strait, the Tagbilaran Strait, and two bridges connect the island with the city of Tagbilaran.
Panglao has a terrain that range from plain, hilly to mountainous, composed by a limestone that is soluble and that causes the formation of caves and sinkholes.
One interesting geological feature of the island is the Hinagdanan Cave which has an underground water source; because there no rivers or lakes in the island, the cave is an important water source.
During the works of the Panglao Marine Biodiversity Project, about 250 new species of crustaceans and 1,500-2,500 new species of mollusks were found in the waters of Panglao and Balicasag.
The project found that Panglao alone has more marine biodiversity than Japan and the Mediterranean sea.

It was part of the North African Campaign.
The battle took place from 19 February 1943 to 24 February 1943.

They also included some divisions from the German 5th Panzer Army.
The II Corps of the US Army was led by Lloyd Fredendall.
The British 1st Army was led by Kenneth Anderson.
This battle is remembered as the first major battle between the Americans and the Germans in the war.
The Americans were trying to get to Tunis quickly before more Axis troops could arrive from Europe.
It was the first battle in which the American soldiers fought an enemy that was better organized and had more experienced soldiers.
The battle from the beginning was very costly for the Americans.
Many of them died, and the others were forced to retreat  from their starting position at the Faid Pass.
American and British reinforcements soon arrived to help and forced Rommel to retreat to better positions.
The battle caused a change in American military organization to prepare the army better for the war in North Africa.
Several commanders were replaced.
When Rommel and the Americans fought again weeks later, the American improvements were seen in battle.

Hotline Miami is a violent 2D top-down shooter indie video game developed by Dennaton Games and published by Devolver Digital.
The game was inspired by the 2011 film Drive and the 2006 film Cocaine Cowboys.
The developers said that they "wanted it to be disturbing and we wanted people to feel the violence".
They made the graphics pixel art to make sure the game was not controversial.
A developer, Jonatan Söderström started making a game called Super Carnage, which was very similar to Hotline Miami.
The aim of the game was to kill as many people as possible.
The game was left unfinished because of difficulties coding the AI.
Before starting development, the developers wanted inspiration, so they watched some movies like Kick-Ass, Drive and Cocaine Cowboys.
They wanted to raise questions about what it meant to kill a virtual person in a video game.
Mid-way through development, Söderström worried that he was running out of money, so he started Hotline Miami.
They spent 9 months in an apartment coding the game.
