White Tiger Annette Kirotar Gustav Adolf Grammar School 2008/2009 A white tiger is a tiger with a genetic condition that nearly eliminates pigment in the normally orange fur, though they still have stripes. Another genetic condition also makes the stripes of the tiger very pale; white tigers of this type are called snowwhite or "pure white". Compared to orange tigers without the white gene, white tigers tend to be larger both at birth and at full adult size. All the white tigers are Bengal tigers. White tiger is very rare and it is known only in zoos. Looks pink nose, pink paw pads, iceblue eyes, white to creamcoloured fur black, ash grey, or chocolatecoloured stripes Male tigers weigh about 172133 kg. Female tigers weigh 241262 kg.

Women's outfit consists of a striped skirt, white blouse and a hat called 'tanu'(coif). Some prides wear a brooch around their neck. It's a feature, which represents fertile age.

My favourite outfit My name is Kerli. I am a 16-year-old schoolgirl. I am from Estonia. I would say I am usually helpful and kind. If anyone needs my help in anything, then I will always lend a hand. I like doing sports and I like to wear sporty clothes, because they are very comfortable. Also, like to wear feminine clothes. My favourite outfit is a leather jacket with blue jeans, a white blouse and black platforms. The leather jacket has white stripes down the sleeves. It is also quite worn-out by now because I have had it for some time now and I tend to wear it throughout the spring and autumn months. In fact it has gotten quite a few little tears where it has got caught on sharp objects. These clothes came from one of those big department stores and not a specialist leather shop. I am a big believer in wearing clothing that makes you feel great. The ideal item of clothing is the one that makes you both look an...

Not long time ago I met again with Helena. I haven't seen her since last year christmas. She is very beautiful and gorgeous. I first met her some years ago at party. There were many beautiful looking girls ,but she was only one who I leapt the eye on. She had curly blond hair, blue eyes, tiny nose, small bright red mouth, bright white top and small red skirt, curvy body figure just like an angel. For today she is changed a lot. She got long black hair with pink stripes in it and still she got that pretty face, she's wearing high-heel shoes, black tight jeans, and black calash top. In her character is something special what I like. She is friendly most of the time, she got so much energy but she don't have a place to express herself. And the thing what I like most about her that she is very honest with me i think and i can trust her allways and of course she is very helpful.

Thylacine AKA the Tasmanian Tiger/Wolf • The Tasmanian Tiger was the largest known carnivorous marsupial of modern times. • Native to continental Australia, Tasmania and New Guinea. • Believed to have become extinct in the 20th century. • Became extremely rare or extinct on the Australian mainland before British settlement of the continent, but it survived to the 1930s on the island of Tasmania. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6vqCCI1ZF7o • The thylacine was able to open its jaws to an unusual extent: up to 120 degrees. This capability can be seen in part in David Fleay's short black-and- white film sequence of a captive thylacine from 1933. The jaws were muscular but weak and had 46 teeth. • The thylacine held the title of Australia's largest predator until about 3500 years ago. • The thylacine resembled a large, short-haired dog w...

1 De Stijl’i maailmaparandamise püüdlused 20.sajandi algus oli muutuste ajastu algus. Uued tootmisvõimalused panid ka loomeinimesed teises suunas mõtlema. Kujunes välja masinaesteetika ning loobuti vanadest stiilidest – püüti kujundada uut nägemust maailmast. Oma jälje jättis sellesse ka Esimene maailmasõda, mille vastu paljud kunstnikerühmitused püüdsid just oma ideedega sõdida. Üheks värvikamaks sajandi alguse kunstnike rühmituseks võib pidada De Stijl’i. Essees üritan selgusele jõuda, kas ja kui palju De Stijl mõjutas oma ideedega 20.sajandi alguse kunsti ja disaini valdkonda. De Stijl’i liikumise algatajaks Leidenis oli maalija, kunstnik ja arhitekt Theo van Doesurg (1883-1931). Järgnevail aastail kogunes väljaande ümber suurem avangardsete vaadetega loovisikute seltskond. Neist kõige äärmuslikum ja ...

AMBER AND RUSSET - LATE COLOUR CHANGE GENES Copyright 2014, Sarah Hartwell The ancestors of the domestic cat were nondescript black/brown striped tabbies. Over the centuries, mutation produced a wide array of colours based on 2 different pigments. Eumelanin gives the blacks, browns and blues while phaeomelanin gives the reds, fawns and creams. A few other genes give further variations on those colours such silvers, colourpoints and solids/selfs. Mutations continue to occur and unexpected colours also turn up due to inbreeding where recessive genes, hidden for generations, start showing up. AMBER AND LIGHT AMBER During the 1990s, some purebred Norwegian Forest Cats in Sweden produced chocolate/lilac and cinnamon/fawn offspring. However, those colours are not found in the purebred Norwegian Forest Cat gene pool. Had the gene pool become polluted by someone, perhaps generations ago, breeding their Norwegian Forest Cat to another breed? ...

1) INDIAN ROCK ART: A NATIONAL TREASURE IN DANGER Unrecognized, unprotected, this priceless legacy of primitive art has endured the ravages of nature only to fall victim to wanton destruction by ,,civilized" man. Like the huge stone statues of Easter Island and prehistoric cave paintings of Altamira and Lascaux, North American Indian rock art is surrounded by an atmosphere of mystery. Although examples of rock art exist at some 15000 sites in canyons, deserts, caves and river gorges. Nowadays, however, primitive rock art in the United States has become a new field of scientific study. Klaus F Wellmann wrote two books about rock art. He is a professor of medicine. Rock art represents the history of aboriginal Americans. In the most cases the art is an expression of ideas and way of life, ritual ceremonies, hunting, fighting. The pictures of people and animals are often strikingly lifelike and artistic. Many of these ancient relics have ...
