Bioluminescence is the production and emission of light by a living organism as the result of a chemical reaction during which chemical energy is converted to light energy. The name originates from the Greek bios for "living" and the Latin lumen "light". Bioluminescence may be generated by symbiotic organisms carried within a larger organism. It is generated by an enzyme-catalyzed chemoluminescence reaction, wherein a luciferin (a kind of pigment) is oxidised by a luciferase (a kind of enzyme). Adenosine triphosphate (AT ...

List of neologisms on The Simpsons - Capdabbler. A word made up by Mr. Burns in "Last Exit to Springfield" for a song parodying Dr. Seuss's "The Grinch": "Look at them all, through the darkness I'm bringing They're not sad at all. They're actually singing! They sing without juicers They sing without blenders They sing without flungers, capdabblers and smendlers!"

Chocolate - Lethal toxicity for domesticated animals. Main article: theobromine poisoning In sufficient amounts the theobromine found in chocolate is toxic to animals such as horses, dogs, parrots, voles, and cats (kittens especially) because they are unable to metabolise the chemical effectively. If they are fed chocolate, the theobromine will remain in their bloodstream for up to 20 hours, and these animals may experience epileptic seizures, heart attacks, internal bleeding, and eventually death. Medical treatment involves inducing vomiting within tw ...

There are two types of Rasta religious ceremonies. A reasoning is a simple event where the Rastas gather; smoke "ganja" (marijuana); and discuss ethical, social and religious issues. The person honored by being allowed to light the herb says a short prayer before doing so, and it is always passed in a clockwise fashion. A binghi or grounation is a holiday; the word binghi is believed to refer originally to an ancient, and now extinct, order of militant blacks in eastern Africa that vowed to end oppression. Binghis are marked by much dancing, singing, feasting and the ...

"[Triumph of the Will is] the supreme visualisation in cinematic form of the Nazi political religion. Its artistry, reinforced by the grandeur and power of the Nuremberg decor, is designed to sweep us into empathetic identification with Hitler as a kind of human deity. The massive spectacle of regimentation, unity and loyalty to the Fuhrer powerfully conveys the message that the Nazi movement was the living symbol of the reborn German nation." -- Professor Robert Wistrich[4]See also:

Geldof was educated at Blackrock College near Dublin, a school whose staunch Catholic nationalist ethos he disliked. He started as a music journalist in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada for the weekly Georgia Straight publication before coming to fame in the mid-1970s as leader of the Boomtown Rats, a rock group closely linked with the punk movement. [1] In 1978, they had their first Number 1 single with "Rat Trap", which was the first New Wave chart-topper in the UK. A follow-up, "I Don't Like Mondays", was equally successful and also co ...
