Tree

In botany, a tree is a perennial plant with an elongated stem, or trunk, supporting branches and leaves in most species. In some usages, the definition of a tree may be narrower, including only woody plants with secondary growth, plants that are usable as lumber or plants above a specified height. Trees are not a taxonomic group but include a variety of plant species that have independently evolved a woody trunk and branches as a way to tower above other plants to compete for sunlight. In looser senses, the taller palms, the tree ferns, bananas and bamboos are also trees. Trees tend to be long-lived, some reaching several thousand years old. The tallest known tree, a coast redwood named Hyperion, stands 115.6 m (379 ft) high. Trees have been in existence for 370 million years. It is estimated that there are just over 3 trillion mature trees in the world.

A tree typically has many secondary branches supported clear of the ground by the trunk. This trunk typically contains woody tissue for strength, and vascular tissue to carry materials from one part of the tree to another. For most trees it is surrounded by a layer of bark which serves as a protective barrier. Below the ground, the roots branch and spread out widely; they serve to anchor the tree and extract moisture and nutrients from the soil. Above ground, the branches divide into smaller branches and shoots. The shoots typically bear leaves, which capture light energy and convert it into sugars by photosynthesis, providing the food for the tree's growth and development. Flowers and fruit may also be present, but some trees, such as conifers, instead have pollen cones and seed cones; others, such as tree ferns, produce spores instead.

Chief John Big Tree

Chief John Big Tree (June 2, 1877 – July 6, 1967), born Isaac Johnny John, was a member of the Seneca Nation and an actor who appeared in 59 films between 1915 and 1950.

Big Tree claimed to be one of three Native American chiefs whose profiles were composited to make the portrait featured on the obverse of the United States' Indian Head nickel, designed by sculptor James Earle Fraser. The other two chiefs were Iron Tail and Two Moons. Big Tree claimed that his profile was used to create that portion of the portrait from the top of the forehead to the upper lip.

Big Tree also claimed to be the sole model for Fraser's most recognized work, the doleful "End of the Trail". Both of these claims are broadly disputed, and Fraser identified other models.

He also appeared on the March 1964 cover of Esquire magazine, in a pose commemorating the Indian Head nickel.

He was born in Michigan and died in Onondaga Indian Reservation, New York. His interment was also there.

Mr. Big (Sex and the City)

John James "Mr. Big" Preston is a recurring fictional character in the HBO series Sex and the City, portrayed by Chris Noth. He is the primary on-and-off love interest of the series' protagonist, Carrie Bradshaw, who usually simply refers to him as "Big".

According to accounts in the press, the Mr. Big character was based on publishing executive Ron Galotti, former publisher of GQ and Talk. Bushnell told New York Magazine in 2004, "He was one of those New York guys with a big personality — you just notice him as soon as he walks in the room," and "I called him Mr. Big because he was like a big man on campus." Big appeared in Comcast's list of TV's Most Intriguing Characters.

Pilot episode

"Big" appears in the first episode of Sex and the City as a very attractive stranger who helps Carrie pick up the contents of her purse (notably cosmetics and condoms) after she is accidentally bumped by a stranger on the streets of Manhattan. The nickname "Big" refers to his status as "the next Donald Trump" and "major tycoon, major dreamboat, and majorly out of [Carrie's] league". When Carrie and her friend Samantha bump into Big at a nightclub, Samantha tries to hit on him, but he tactfully declines. In the first few episodes, he and Carrie frequently bump into one another, until finally Big suggests the two of them should "bump into one another on purpose". Carrie agrees and thus begins their on-again-off-again relationship. Big calls Carrie by the nickname "Kid". When Carrie asks Big if he has ever been in love, he replies, "Ab-so-fucking-lutely".

Yandere Simulator

Yandere Simulator (working title) is a stealth action video game in development and to be published by YandereDev (working name). Early development builds of the game were made available via its official website. The game's premise centers upon a jealous schoolgirl, Ayano Aishi, nicknamed Yandere-chan after the Japanese term "yandere", who has decided to eliminate anyone she believes is monopolizing her crush's attention.

This New Year, Big Tree

text lyrics

This New Year

Autumn of this year, left everyone, displaced.
The first winter blanket, the first lived-by your place.
Twelve airplanes, forty-seven delays.
Mother asked if you loved me, and I hesistated.
You both have the red coat that I want.
They both got chromosomes that I got.
November, December, I forgot your birthday.
When I asked if you worried, you just looked away.
Ohoh! everything used to be easy, now it's so damn hard to try.
Everything that I do, everything that I knew how to do...
Winter of this year, showed everyone the way.
We all helped each other, as the sky turned grey.
Ten bottles, one embrace, so surprised by that gaze.
You forgot to be happy, but I learned to play.
Your heart is cold, my fingers are warm.
Their lips are smiling, your eyes closed.
This new year, this New York, this concrete home.
I claimed the roof as my castle, but you never showed.
Ohoh! everything used to be easy, now it's so damn hard to try.
Everything that I do, everything that I knew how to do...
Ohoh! everything used to be easy, now it's so damn hard to try.
Everything that I do, everything that I knew how to do...
Ohoh! everything used to be easy, now it's so damn hard to try.
Everything that I do, everything that I knew how to do...
Ohoh! everything used to be easy, now it's so damn hard to try.
Everything that I do, everything that I knew how to do...
