Flare
A flare, also sometimes called a fusée or Bengala in some Latin-speaking countries, is a type of pyrotechnic that produces a bright light or intense heat without an explosion. Flares are used for distress signalling, illumination, or defensive countermeasures in civilian and military applications. Flares may be ground pyrotechnics, projectile pyrotechnics, or parachute-suspended to provide maximum illumination time over a large area. Projectile pyrotechnics may be dropped from aircraft, fired from rocket or artillery, or deployed by flare guns or handheld percussive tubes. The earliest recorded use of gunpowder for signalling purposes was the 'signal bomb' used by the Chinese Song Dynasty as the Mongol-led Yuan Dynasty besieged Yangzhou in 1276. These soft-shelled bombs, timed to explode in mid-air, were used to send messages to a detachment of troops far in the distance. Another mention of the signal bomb appears in a text dating from 1293 requesting their collection from those still stored in Zhejiang. A signal gun appears in Korea by 1600. The Wu I Thu Phu Thung Chih or Illustrated Military Encyclopedia is written in 1791 depicts a signal gun in an illustration. In the civilian world, flares are commonly used as signals, and may be ignited on the ground or fired as an aerial signal from a pistol-like flare gun, or launched from a self-contained tube. Flares are commonly found in marine survival kits.
The Urban Dictionary Mug
I'm in a Spanish-speaking practice group, and the phrase "Ajo y Agua" came up, meaning, (more or less) "If you f***ed up, deal with it." (It's a long story, how "Garlic and Water" means this, but that's the fun of it.) Anyway, the Urban Dictionary site with the mug popped up on Google (reading my mind, as always) so I bought one as a gift. It's not cheap as mugs go, but I'm happy to say the mug is VERY good quality, looks exactly as it does online, and is packed in the most securely designed mug-transport box I've ever seen. You can't break it in shipping or reshipping! Also it arrived in just a few days. I recommend this product highly.
i like mug that say words
I purchased the eggplant color cup for my friend, purple is her favorite color and she loves her special cup, she cooks a lot, so I had Itis with Iris put on one side of the cup and the meaning on the other side because when she cooks that how everyone feels afterwards!! Thanks UD Diana K.
