I read recently that the penguins insulation is so good that if they kept to the centre of the huddle they would suffer from overheating so they need to move towards the edge to cool down. If that is the case it would make sense to me as then there are a greater number of penguins that would survive.
There is an international ‘standard’ auxiliary language already in existence called Esperanto, check out the details on Wikipedia. Been around since 1880s.
Champagne corks do look like that, the cone part is the bit that was jammed into the bottle it expands when it is released from the bottle. There is/was an old tradition of keeping the champagne corks would bring good luck.
The line comes from Thomas Gray (26 December 1716 – 30 July 1771) who was an English poet, letter-writer, classical scholar and professor at Pembroke College, Cambridge. He is widely known for his Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard, published in 1751.He is well known for his phrase, “where ignorance is bliss, ’tis folly to be wise.” The phrase, from Ode on a Distant Prospect of Eton College, is possibly one of the most misconstrued phrases in English literature. Gray is not promoting ignorance, but is reflecting with nostalgia on a time when he was allowed to be ignorant, his youth (1742)the last verse of his poem is:
To each his sufferings: all are men,Condemn’d alike to groan—The tender for another’s pain,Th’ unfeeling for his own.Yet, ah! why should they know their fate,Since sorrow never comes too late,And happiness too swiftly flies?Thought would destroy their Paradise.No more;—where ignorance is bliss,’Tis folly to be wise.
