Kasha
In the English language, kasha is a term for the pseudocereal buckwheat. In Central and Eastern Europe, especially Russia and Poland, kasha is a dish made of any kind of grains boiled in water or milk, possibly with additives, i.e., a porridge.
The largest gross consumption per capita is in Russia, with 15 kg (33 lb) per year, and Ukraine, with 12 kg (26 lb) per year. The share of buckwheat in the total consumption of cereals in Russia is 20%.
This English-language usage probably originated with Jewish immigrants, as did the form קאַשי kashi (technically plural, literally translated as "porridges").
The word generally refers to roasted whole-grain buckwheat or buckwheat groats. However, in Slavic Europe, it refers to porridge in general and can be made from buckwheat or any cereal wheat, barley, oats, millet and rye. At least 1,000 years old, kasha is one of the oldest known dishes in Central European and Eastern European cuisine.
In Russian, buckwheat is referred to formally as гречиха (grechikha) and buckwheat grain and buckwheat groats as гречневая крупа (grechnevaya krupa). Informally buckwheat grain and buckwheat groats are called гречка (grechka), and the porridge made from buckwheat groats is known as гречневая каша (grechnevaya kasha). In Polish, buckwheat porridge is referred to as kasza gryczana. Annual (2013) per capita consumption of groats in Poland is approx. 1.56 kg (3.4 lb) per year (130 g (4.6 oz) a month).

You were the first to use radiation.::David Banner: But I moved too fast. I experimented on myself. And...::Dr. Ronald Pratt: And now you have that strength.::David Banner: Now I have a mutation, near the rage center of my brain.

I am the strength and the healing. I can tear down a brick wall but I can also mend bones and flesh in hours, minutes.
Dr. Ronald Pratt: I must see it, David. Study it.::David Banner: Impossible. He would destroy this place.::Dr. Ronald Pratt: What if I could contain it? Turn its strength back against it, like a force field. I could do that, I could do that here.::David Banner: I can't take that responsibility.::Dr. Ronald Pratt: I will!::David Banner: *No!* I can't let him out! You don't understand. For years, I have tried to control him. To maintain...::Dr. Ronald Pratt: David, please! There is a chance that I can *rid you* of this thing! A chance. Now isn't that what you've been chasing, all these years? But with your help, I could change the way we heal ourselves. I can save lives, David. But I must study this thing. I must see it!

Make You Mine
We were lovers in the past life,
I can see it in your brown eyes.
Baby you were in my lies,
And I was trouble.
I can't believe
Time after time
Time after time
