Rail transport
Rail transport is a means of transferring passengers and goods on wheeled vehicles running on rails, which is also known as tracks. It is also commonly referred to as train transport. In contrast to road transport, where vehicles run on a prepared flat surface, rail vehicles (rolling stock) are directionally guided by the tracks on which they run. Tracks usually consist of steel rails, installed on ties (sleepers) set in ballast, on which the rolling stock, usually fitted with metal wheels, moves.

Long hair
Long hair is a hairstyle where the head hair is allowed to grow to a considerable length. Exactly what constitutes long hair can change from culture to culture, or even within cultures. For example, a woman with chin-length hair in some cultures may be said to have short hair, while a man with the same length of hair in some of the same cultures would be said to have long hair.
Males having short, cut hair are in many cultures viewed as being under society's control

across North America, Europe, United Kingdom and Australia. Historically, the establishment of Catholic schools in Europe encountered various struggles following the creation of the Church of England in the Elizabethan Religious settlements of 1558-63. Anti-Catholicism in this period encouraged Catholics to create modern Catholic education systems to preserve their traditions. The Relief Acts of 1782 and the Catholic Emancipation Act of 1829 later increased the possibility to openly practice Catholicism in England and to create charitable institutions by the Church. This led to the development of numerous native religious

Acrylic paint
Acrylic paint is a fast-drying paint made of pigment suspended in acrylic polymer emulsion. Acrylic paints are water-soluble, but become water-resistant when dry. Depending on how much the paint is diluted with water, or modified with acrylic gels, mediums, or pastes, the finished acrylic painting can resemble a watercolor, a gouache or an oil painting, or have its own unique characteristics not attainable with other media.

of color and use of wet-in-wet technique as in oil painting. Even though acrylic retarders can slow drying time to several hours, it remains a relatively fast-drying medium and adding too much acrylic retarder can prevent the paint from ever drying properly.
Meanwhile, acrylic paint is very elastic, which prevents cracking from occurring. Acrylic paint's binder is acrylic polymer emulsion – as this binder dries, the paint remains flexible.

blindness is an inherited problem in the development of one or more of the three sets of color-sensing cones in the eye. Males are more likely to be color blind than females, as the genes responsible for the most common forms of color blindness are on the X chromosome. As females have two X chromosomes, a defect in one is typically compensated for by the other, while males only have one X chromosome. Color blindness can also result from physical or chemical damage to the eye, optic nerve or parts of

Archaeology, or archeology, is the study of human activity through the recovery and analysis of material culture. The archaeological record consists of artifacts, architecture, biofacts or ecofacts and cultural landscapes. Archaeology can be considered both a social science and a branch of the humanities.

I sometimes get Sam's Choice things at Sam's Club (owned by walmart) because they're a good price for what you get.
What sort of Sam's Choice things do you especially like?
I like some of the Sam's Choice dry goods. Like generic cereals and things. The quality is better than most store brands that aren't from membership-only retailers. Costco also had good store brand quality.
Is the price of the Costco store brand items comparable to the price of the Sam's Choice items?

twist on a Biblical story. And I don't know about you all but watching the arrival of The Darkness — which was sort of Sam's fault for making Rowena do the spell — took me right back to Sam letting Lucifer out of his cage. And that twist ended up giving us season 5, a.k.a. my favorite of the series. So if The Darkness is anything like Lucifer, I'm in."
Sean McKenna from "TV Fanatic", gave a 4.6 star rating out of 5, stating

I need a vacation! I wanna go to the beach so bad
I understand how you feel. Feeling the sand under your feet makes you feel your on holiday! I dont like those beaches though that have pebbles or cobblestones.
me neither! I would love to go to the Bahamas. Paradise Island has beautiful beaches
Sounds perfect. I imagine there would be some wild beaches there which would be valued for their untouched beauty and preserved nature.
I bet! I've never seen one but i'm sure locals know where they are located
Yes i imagine so. Dont get me wrong though I dont mind sometimes going to the beaches that have man made infrastructures like the beach bar changing rooms, showers etc but sometimes its nice to see nature as it is.
i agree! I actually wanna learn surfing

Surfing
Surfing is a surface water sport in which the wave rider, referred to as a surfer, rides on the forward or face of a moving wave, which usually carries the surfer towards the shore. Waves suitable for surfing are primarily found in the ocean, but can also be found in lakes or rivers in the form of a standing wave or tidal bore. However, surfers can also utilize artificial waves such as those from boat wakes and the waves created in artificial wave pools.

signed me, Aaron Bay-Schuck, left and went to Interscope... He called me and was like, 'I have this thing. I don't wanna leave you. I don't wanna lose you. But I need to go.' I said, 'I completely understand,' but then I was left at Atlantic again and just kind of didn't know what to do. So I was given a lot of songs, I was recording a lot of things that didn't feel completely 100% authentic

I love youtube! What about you? It was created by three former PayPal employees.
Youtube is great! I didn't know the people from PayPal created it. That is quite interesting.
Yeah! And Google bought the site in 2006 for 1.65 billion!
Wow! That is a crazy large amount of money! How does Youtube even make money?
The user generated and corporate media videos are monetized through google adsense!
That is ingenious! How many users does Youtube have?

Have you ever worked in a factory?
I have not but factories became about with the introduction of machinery during the Industrial Revolution when the capital and space requirements became too great for cottage industry or workshops.
Yeah, they definitely are a modern invention. The population also used to be much smaller. More people = needs for mass production

Mass production
Mass production, also known as flow production or continuous production, is the production of large amounts of standardized products, including and especially on assembly lines. Together with job production and batch production, it is one of the three main production methods.
The term "mass production" was popularized by a 1926 article in the "Encyclopædia Britannica" supplement that was written based on correspondence with Ford Motor Company. The "New York Times" used the term in the title of an article that appeared before publication

Every Thursday I go swimming from 1-4pm.
Thursday was named after the Norse god of Thunder, Thor.
Hopefully there isn't thunder or rain when I go swimming this Thursday.
Thursday is also the fourth day of the week.
That's right, its also my favorite day since it's when I start to unwind for the weekend.
Television sounds like a good way to unwind. The majority of homes have more than one TV. Do you?
I only have one tv. I'd probably have more if I didn't live alone.
The Desperate Housewives episode "Live Alone and Like it" was the 19th episode of the first season.
I watched the first few seasons of Desperate housewives but I don't remember that episode. What happened during it?

just feel like I'm in a better place right now to put out music. Not even as an artist trying to sing, I'm not doing this to become a singer. I just really want to put out records that I've written that I love. I plan to do it every year like a birthday."
Speaking to "Rolling Stone" about the album's genre, he stated that "I wanted it to be rounded off, not just one genre. I wanted a fusion of Latin pop
