Abstract art

Abstract art is now typically understood to mean art that does not depict objects in the natural world, but instead uses color and form in a non-representational way. In the very near the beginning 20th century, the term was more often used to describe art, such as Cubist and Futurist art, that depicts real forms in a simplified or rather reduced way—keeping only an allusion of the original natural subject. Such paintings were often claimed to capture astonishing of the depicted objects' immutable intrinsic qualities rather than its external appearance. The additional precise terms, "non-figurative art," "non-objective art," and "non-representational art" keep away from any possible ambiguity.

Bay of Bengal

The Bay of Bengal is a cove that forms the northeastern ingredient of the Indian Ocean. It resembles a triangle in form, and is enclosed on the east by Malay Peninsula, and on the west by India. On the northern pour of the "bay" lies the Bengal region, comprising the Indian state of West Bengal and the country of Bangladesh, thus the name. The southern boundaries arrive at the island country of Sri Lanka, and the Indian Union Territory of Andaman and Nicobar Islands.

The Bay of Bengal occupies a region of 2,172,000 km². It is bordered by India and Sri Lanka to the West, Bangladesh to the North, and Myanmar and the southern division of Thailand to the East. Its southern border extends as an imaginary line from Dondra Head at the southern end of Sri Lanka to the northern angle of Sumatra. A number of huge rivers – Ganges, Brahmaputra, Irrawaddy, Godavari, Mahanadi, Krishna and Cauvery – run into the Bay of Bengal. Among the vital ports are Yangon, Kolkata/Calcutta, Chittagong, Cuddalore, Kakinada, Machlipatnam, Madras, Paradip and Vishakapatnam.

Salad

Salad is a light meal — or, as part of a bigger meal, much more of an taster — consisting of varied vegetables (usually including at least one leaf vegetable) or fruit, frequently with a dressing or sauce, occasionally nuts and sometimes with the addition of meat, fish or cheese. It is usually seen as a healthy dish, even though not always low in calories, salt, sugar, or fat because of the dressing that is often added. The word "salad" comes from the French salade of the identical meaning, which in twist is from the Latin salata, "salty", from sal, "salt".

Traffic light

A traffic light or traffic signal is a signalling device positioned at a road junction or pedestrian crossing to indicate when it is safe to drive, ride or walk, using a universal color code.Traffic lights for usual vehicles or pedestrians always have two main lights, a red one that means stop and a green one that means go. Generally, the red light contains some orange in its hue, and the green light contains some blue, to provide some support for people with red-green color blindness. In most countries there is also a yellow (or amber) light, which when on and not flashing means stop if able to do so securely. In some systems, a flashing amber means that a motorist may go in advance with care if the road is clear, giving way to pedestrians and to other road vehicles that may have precedence. A flashing red effectively means the same as a regular stop sign. There may be additional lights (usually a green arrow or "filter") to allow turns (called a lead light in the U.S., because it is usually leading the main green light).

Players of Cricket

A team contains an eleven players. Depending on his or her most important skills, a player may be classified as a specialist batsman or bowler. A balanced team generally has five or six expert batsmen and four or five expert bowlers. Teams nearly for all time include a specialist wicket-keeper because of the importance of this fielding position. Each team is headed by a captain, who is in charge for making strategic decisions such as determining the batting order, the placement of fielders and the rotation of bowlers.

A player who excels in both batting and bowling is called as an all-rounder. One who excels as a batsman and wicket-keeper is known as a "wicket-keeper/batsman", sometimes regarded as a kind of all-rounder. True all-rounders are rare; most players focal point on either batting or bowling skills.

One-day Match & Draw Match

If the team batting last is all out, and in cooperation sides have scored the same number of runs, then the match is a tie; this result is reasonably rare in matches of two innings a side. In the traditional form of the game, if the time allotted for the match expires before either side can win, then the game is declared a draw.

If the match has only a single innings for each side, then a maximum number of deliveries for every innings is often imposed. Such a match is called a "limited overs" or "one-day" match, and the side scoring more runs wins in spite of of the number of wickets lost, so that a draw cannot occur. If this kind of match is for the moment interrupted by bad weather, then a complex mathematical formula, known as the Duckworth-Lewis method after its developers, is often used to recalculate a new aim score. A one-day match can also be declared a "no-result" if less than a previously agreed number of overs have been bowled by either team, in circumstances that make normal recommencement of play impossible; for example, wet weather.

Results of cricket

If the team that bats last is all out previous to it has reached the total required to win, it is said to have "lost by n runs" (where n is the difference between the number of runs scored by the teams). If the team that bats very last scores enough runs to win, it is said to have "won by n wickets", where n is the number of wickets left to fall. For occurrence a team that passes its opponents' score having only lost six wickets would have won "by four wickets".

In a two-innings-a-side match, one team's combined first and second innings total may be less than the another side's first innings total. The team with the greater score is then said to have won by an innings and n runs, and does not require to bat again: n is the difference between the two teams' aggregate scores.

Overview of Cricket


The aim of the batting team is to score as several runs as possible. A run is scored when both batsmen effectively move to their respective opposite ends of the pitch. (The batsmen will usually only attempt to score runs after the striker has hit the ball, but this is not required by the rules—the batsmen can attempt runs at any time after the ball has been bowled.) Runs are also scored if the batsman hits the ball to the boundary of the before a live audience area (this scores six runs if the ball crosses the boundary without having touched the ground, or four runs otherwise), or if the bowler commits some technical contravention like bowling the ball out of reach of the batsman.[citation needed]

The aim of the bowler's side is to get each batsman out (this is called a "taking a wicket", or a "dismissal"). Dismissals are achieved in a different ways. The most straight way is for the bowler to bowl the ball so that the batsman misses it and it hits the stumps, dislodging a bail. While the batsmen are attempting a run, the fielders may dismiss either batsman by using the ball to beat the bails off the set of stumps to which the batsman is closest before he has grounded himself or his bat in the crease. Other ways for the fielding side to dismiss a batsman contain catching the ball off the bat before it touches the ground, or having the batsman adjudged "leg before wicket" (abbreviated "L.B.W." or "lbw") if the ball strikes the batsman's body and would have gone on to hit the wicket. Once the batsmen are not attempting to achieve any more runs, the ball is "dead", and is bowled again (each attempt at bowling the ball is a "ball" or a "delivery").

History of cricket

Cricket has been a standard team sport for hundreds of years. It originated in its modern form in England and is most well-liked in the present and earlier members of the Commonwealth. Cricket is the second the majority popular sport in the world. More than a hundred cricket-playing nations are familiar by the International Cricket Council. In the countries of South Asia, including India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, cricket is the most well-liked sport. It is also a main sport in England, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Zimbabwe and the English-speaking countries of the Caribbean, which are together known in cricketing parlance as the West Indies. There are also well-established part-time club competitions in countries as diverse as the Netherlands, Kenya, Nepal and Argentina, among others.

Cricket

Cricket is a bat-and-ball sport contest by two teams, regularly of eleven players each.A cricket match is played on a grass ground, roughly oval in shape, in the centre of which is a flat strip of ground 22 yards (20.12 m) long, called a cricket pitch. A wicket, regularly made of wood, is placed at each end of the pitch.

The bowler, a player from the fielding team, hurls a hard, fist-sized cricket ball from the surrounding area of one wicket towards the other. The ball usually bounces once before attainment the batsman, a player from the opposing team. In boldness of the wicket, the batsman plays the ball with a wooden cricket bat. Meanwhile, the other members of the bowler's team stand in different positions around the field as fielders, players who retrieve the ball in an effort to stop the batsman scoring, and if possible to get him or her out. The batsman—if he or she does not get out—may run between the wickets, exchanging ends with a second batsman (the "non-striker"), who has been coming up near the bowler's wicket. Each completed exchange of ends scores one run. Runs are also scored if the batsman hits the ball to the boundary of the in performance area. The match is won by the team that team must took more runs.
