After this drama, this teacher commented that she felt her students finally understood what it means to be a night creature (vs. a day creature) and how a bat moves through the darkness using only sound and smell to find its baby. The fourth grade class is preparing to produce a play about nature in which the students will portray animals like tigers, coyotes, and rabbits. This lesson is the beginning of several lessons designed to use drama to help the students improve both their observation skills and their understandings about animal characteristics.
The arts have long been known to deeply connect people with ideas and emotions (Dewey, 1959; Greene, 1991). The 8 Most Painful Torture Devices Of The Middle Ages. Torture Devices Of The Middle Ages: The Saw Before the saw was given its perfunctory role to slice through wood and thick material, it was used to slice through humans for torture or execution. The victim would be held upside down, allowing the blood to rush to their head, and then the torturer would slowly start slicing them between their legs. With the blood contained in the head, the victim would remain conscious throughout most of the slicing, often only passing out or dying when the saw hit their mid-section.

As the name suggests, the claw-like device, which ended in spikes, was heated and then used to rip off or shred a woman’s breasts. Pythagorean cup. Cross section Cross section of a Pythagorean cup. A Pythagorean cup (also known as a Pythagoras cup, a Greedy Cup or a Tantalus cup) is a form of drinking cup that forces its user to imbibe only in moderation.
Credited to Pythagoras of Samos, it allows the user to fill the cup with wine up to a certain level. If he fills the cup only to that level, the imbiber may enjoy a drink in peace. If he exhibits gluttony, however, the cup spills its entire contents out of the bottom (onto the lap of the immodest drinker).[1] Form and function[edit] A Pythagorean cup looks like a normal drinking cup, except that the bowl has a central column in it – giving it a shape like a Bundt pan in the center of the cup. When the cup is filled, liquid rises through the second pipe up to the chamber at the top of the central column, following Pascal's principle of communicating vessels.

There Are Human Remains in the Haunted Mansion The Haunted Mansion ride at Disneyland is one of the scariest places in the park, but not for the reasons you’d expect. In his 1994 book Mouse Tales , former Disney employee David Koenig tells the story of a tourist group that requested a little extra time on the ride so they could hold a quick memorial for a 7-year-old boy. Disney gave the family permission, but it turns out, the memorial was only half their plan. This wasn’t an isolated incident. 2. Each night at Disneyland, after the sunburned families and exhausted cast members have made their way home, the park fills up again—this time, with hundreds of feral cats.
