A dragon was living under Wawel Hill in Krakow and stealing young girls and farm animals. Prince Krak offered half his kingdom and his daughter's hand in marriage to whoever could kill the dragon. Many soldiers tried but failed. Finally, a shoemaker filled a sheep's skin with sulphur and left it near the dragon's cave. The dragon ate the sheep and its stomach started burning from the sulphur. It ran to the river to drink but continued drinking until it exploded. The shoemaker received the prize from the prince and married his daughter, saving the city from the dragon.

Tricksters are mythological figures that break rules and play tricks. They often shape-shift and appear as animals. Coyote is a major trickster figure in Native American myths, though his role varies between cultures - sometimes he is a culture hero, other times an antihero or comic figure. One Micronesian myth tells of the trickster Olifat who tricks his brother and father. Another Native American myth describes a raccoon deceiving two blind old men by moving their water line and tapping them, causing a fight. Reynard the Fox was a medieval European trickster who was always in trouble but could talk his way out. The Joker in The Dark Knight is such an iconic villain because he appeals

Natural sources of energy group4
This document summarizes several natural sources of energy: wind turbines convert kinetic energy from wind into electricity, solar panels convert sunlight into electricity or heat water, hydropower harnesses the energy of falling or running water, biomass refers to biological materials that can be burned directly or processed into biofuels, and electric vehicles use electrical energy stored in batteries to power electric motors for propulsion.
Natural disasters Group6
This document discusses various natural disasters connected to water. It defines floods as an overflow of water that submerges land, usually due to excessive water in a river, lake, or from heavy rainfall. Drought is defined as an extended period without sufficient water supply. Earthquakes result from a sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust that causes seismic waves. Volcanic eruptions occur when a volcano actively releases lava and gases. Tsunamis are large ocean waves caused by earthquakes, landslides, or volcanic eruptions displacing water. Hurricanes are large storm systems that form over warm ocean waters and bring strong winds and rain.
Natural disasters Group 6
This document defines and describes different types of natural disasters including floods, tsunamis, storms, limnic eruptions, and cyclones. Floods are defined as overflow of water that submerges dry land. Tsunamis resemble rapidly rising tides rather than waves and arrive in wave trains. A limnic eruption occurs when carbon dioxide erupts from deep lake water, endangering wildlife. Cyclones are storm systems with low pressure and thunderstorms that produce strong winds and rain by feeding on heat from rising moist air.
Natural disasters Group5
Natural disasters connected with water can include floods, limnic eruptions, tsunamis, and storms. A flood occurs when an overflow of water submerges land, usually caused by heavy rain or melting snow that causes a river or lake to overflow. A limnic eruption happens when gases like carbon dioxide erupt from deep lake water, endangering wildlife and humans. Tsunamis are large sea waves caused by earthquakes or landslides under the sea. Storms are disturbed weather conditions involving strong winds, rain, snow, or other precipitation.
Natural disasters Group4
Natural disasters connected with water can include tsunamis, storms, and floods. A tsunami is a series of waves caused by the displacement of a large volume of water, often triggered by earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or landslides under the sea. Storms generally lead to severe weather like heavy rain, flooding, lightning, or strong winds that can damage property. A flood is an overflow of water that covers land not usually submerged, which can occur when a river, lake, or rainwater rises and spills outside of normal boundaries.
Natural disasters Group3
This document summarizes different types of natural disasters connected to water: storms, floods, tsunamis, and heavy rainfall. Storms are strong gusty winds over bodies of water. Floods occur when water overflows river or lake banks or from heavy rainfall, including areal, riverine, and coastal flooding. Tsunamis are series of waves caused by displacement of water, often due to earthquakes. Heavy rainfall consists of water droplets that have condensed from vapor and fall due to gravity, impacting at increasing speeds with larger droplet sizes. All of these natural disasters can cause loss of life or property damage.
Natural disasters Group2
Floods occur when bodies of water overflow their normal boundaries due to excessive water accumulation. Hailstorms form when rain drops become ice before hitting the ground, and heavy hailstorms can damage agriculture. Strong winds over bodies of water produce storms and dangerous waves. Tsunamis are caused by underwater earthquakes and have much longer wavelengths than ordinary waves, enabling them to destroy coastal areas. Acid rain forms from air pollution and causes acidification of land and water. Landslides are sudden movements of soil and rock masses often triggered by heavy rainfall or thawing that threaten natural and valley slopes. Fog reduces visibility dangerously by suspending water or ice crystals in the air. Ocean currents are directed sea water movements produced
Natural disasters Group1
The document discusses several types of natural disasters including avalanches, floods, tsunamis, storms, and limnic eruptions. Avalanches pose a constant danger of killing many people and animals. Floods from heavy rain or storm surge endanger both populations and infrastructure in urban areas. Tsunamis occur when an enormous wave of water floods inland areas. Storms bring strong winds and huge waves out at sea. Limnic eruptions are rare events where dissolved carbon dioxide erupts from deep lake water, suffocating wildlife, livestock, and humans near the lake.

Reincarnation by Constantinos Patsalis
Reincarnation is the belief that when one dies, one's soul is reborn in a new body. This is a central tenet of Hinduism and Buddhism and is also found in other religions and tribal societies. There are debates around what exactly is reincarnated - the soul? consciousness? The majority of Abrahamic religions like Christianity and Islam do not believe in reincarnation, seeing life as linear with an afterlife, rather than cyclical rebirth.
Spiritual Fathers
This document discusses spiritual fathers in Christianity. It explains that many Christians view spiritual fathers as mentors who guide them in living according to Christ and achieving spiritual salvation, beyond their natural fathers. It notes that some of the greatest modern spiritual fathers live at Mount Athos in Greece, called the Holy Mountain. It lists several famous spiritual fathers from the 20th century, including Father Paisios, Father Porfirios, Father Filotheos Zervakos, and Father Ieronimos of Aegina. The document concludes that even after death, spiritual fathers like Paisios continue to help people through miracles, such as appearing in visions, making prophecies, and discerning people's problems upon first meeting them.
Life after death by Stephanos Chilides
This document discusses life after death according to Buddhist beliefs. It states that at the time of death, the vital energy that powered the physical body is released into the universe. This energy then propels the subtle body away from the earth and to different planes of existence, with the weight or karma of the subtle body determining which plane it goes to. So death is just the end of the physical body, while the energy and subtle body continue on, as energy cannot be destroyed.
Judaism by Antonia Kattou
Judaism is a religious tradition and cultural identity of the Jewish people that originated in the ancient land of Israel. It is one of the oldest monotheistic religions still practiced today. The core beliefs are that God revealed laws and commandments to Moses, and Jews follow teachings from the Torah. The symbol of Judaism is the Star of David, though historically the menorah was also an important symbol. Synagogues are the places of Jewish worship and study.
Judaism by Pavlina Paschalidou
Judaism dates back to around 1800 BC and developed as the traditional monotheistic religion of the Jews. Key teachings of Judaism include believing in one God, treating others well, honoring the Sabbath as a day of rest, praying regularly, and studying Jewish texts to gain wisdom. Today, Israel is the only country where Jews make up a majority of the population, though there are also large Jewish populations in places like the United States and some European countries. Sources of information about Judaism include academic blogs and websites outlining its key teachings.
Islam by Carolina Papademetriou
Islam is a monotheistic religion articulated by the Quran and teachings of Muhammad. It began in Mecca in the 7th century CE and Muslims believe God revealed the religion to Muhammad. The basic practices of Islam, called the Five Pillars, are the confession of faith, daily prayers, alms giving, fasting during Ramadan, and the pilgrimage to Mecca once in a lifetime if able. Some countries with large Muslim populations include Indonesia, Pakistan, Nigeria, Egypt, Turkey and others.
Hinduism by Theodoros Panayiotou
Hinduism's early history is difficult to define because there was no single "Hinduism" historically and it encompasses many traditions without a definite starting point. Hinduism's history is closely tied to social and political developments in South Asia over many thousands of years. Hindus generally believe that time is cyclical rather than linear, moving through successive ages of deterioration until the current "Iron Age" of cruelty and materialism.
Buddhism by Eleni Georgiou
Buddhism originated in India and is based on the teachings of Siddhartha Gautama, known as the Buddha, who lived between the 6th and 4th centuries BCE. The Buddha taught that life is suffering due to craving and ignorance, and that one can be liberated from suffering by eliminating craving and ignorance through understanding dependent origination and attaining nirvana. In Buddhism, karma refers to intentional actions that have moral consequences, and rebirth is understood as the continuation of a dynamic, ever-changing process determined by karma rather than the transmigration of a soul.
The rock of Digenis
Digenis was in love with Rigena and asked her to marry him, but she said she would only if he brought her water from distant areas of Cyprus. Though difficult, Digenis succeeded but Rigena didn't keep her promise, angering Digenis who threw a giant rock near her house. Another myth says Digenis lifted a huge rock and threw it into the sea to save Cyprus from invaders.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.

Wawel dragon
- 1. A story of Wawel’s Dragon
- 2. There are many versions of the folk tale. This is one of them.
- 3. A long, long time ago, when Prince Krak was the ruler of Kraków, many young girls were missing, and no one in Kraków knew what happened to them.
- 4. It turned out that there was an evil dragon living in a big cave under the Wawel Hill. The dragon was stealing farm animals and young girls.
- 5. Prince Krak said: "The person who kills the dragon will get half of the country and marry my daughter." Many brave soldiers tried to kill the dragon, but none of them succeeded. Finally, a young shoe-maker came up with an idea! He filled a sheep's skin with sulphur and left it in front of the dragon’s cave.
- 6. The greedy dragon saw the sulphur-filled sheep and ate it in one bite. Soon, it started to feel a burning pain in his stomach. The pain got worse. It burned more and more. Feeling thirsty, it ran to the Vistula River and started to drink fast. He drank and drank, but it was still burning. So it continued to drink, until it exploded!
- 7. The city was rid of the mean dragon, and the shoemaker got his prize from the ruler and married his daughter.
