Kongo pfp

Kongo, former kingdom in west-central Africa, located south of the Congo River (present-day Angola and Democratic Republic of the Congo). According to traditional accounts, the kingdom was founded by Lukeni lua Nimi about 1390. Originally, it was probably a loose federation of small polities, but, as the kingdom expanded, conquered territories were integrated as a royal patrimony. Soyo and Mbata were the two most powerful provinces of the original federation; other provinces included Nsundi, Mpangu, Mbamba, and Mpemba. The capital of the kingdom was Mbanza Kongo. The capital and its surrounding area were densely settled—more so than other towns in and near the kingdom. This allowed the manikongo (king of Kongo) to keep close at hand the manpower and supplies necessary to wield impressive power and centralize the state.

A dying star is throwing a cosmic tantrum in this combined image from NASA’s Spitzer Space Telescope and the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX), which NASA has lent to the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena. In death, the star’s dusty outer layers are unraveling into space, glowing from the intense ultraviolet radiation being pumped out by the hot stellar core. This object, called the Helix nebula, lies 650 light-years away, in the constellation of Aquarius. Also known by the catalog number NGC 7293, it is a typical example of a class of objects called planetary nebulae. Discovered in the 18th century, these cosmic works of art were erroneously named for their resemblance to gas-giant planets. Planetary nebulae are actually the remains of stars that once looked a lot like our sun. These stars spend most of their lives turning hydrogen into helium in massive runaway nuclear fusion reactions in their cores. In fact, this process of fusion provides all the light and heat that we get from our sun.

Water pfp

the feature of water that I really like is that it seems to be nothing but is very valuable, it is like emptiness, silence or inaction, water is transparent, tasteless, has 3 states of matter, it is wonderful

Avatar Aang had a greater connection to the previous Avatars than Korra, this is a result of their foundation, Aang grew up in a temple of the spirit with spiritual mentors and was more enlightened and reflective than Korra, but he was 12 when he saved the world, and Korra was older and did not succeed in many things as Aang, this speaks of a different pace and opportunities and demands of the surrounding world and circumstances

I don't often go to Vkusno and Tochka, but I can say for sure that the menu, cooking methods are the same as they used to be at McDonald's in Russia, they even have their own Coca Cola, it's called Dobry Cola, in fact it's localized, but legally belongs to the guys from Russia

When the hydrogen fuel for the fusion reaction runs out, the star turns to helium for a fuel source, burning it into an even heavier mix of carbon, nitrogen and oxygen. Eventually, the helium will also be exhausted, and the star dies, puffing off its outer gaseous layers and leaving behind the tiny, hot, dense core, called a white dwarf. The white dwarf is about the size of Earth, but has a mass very close to that of the original star; in fact, a teaspoon of a white dwarf would weigh as much as a few elephants! The glow from planetary nebulae is particularly intriguing as it appears surprisingly similar across a broad swath of the spectrum, from ultraviolet to infrared. The Helix remains recognizable at any of these wavelengths, but the combination shown here highlights some subtle differences.

The power of the spirit in a person becomes pinpointed and focused, this speaks of greater control and energy potential, when working together with spirits we can observe that changes occur in people, at all levels and in all respects, in essence this is symbiosis

Spider-Man has always been the one who lost someone close to him, it's very sad, considering that initially Peter Parker or Miles are good guys, with good intentions, but circumstances encourage them to do something that is on the edge or leads to the wrong choice, the consequences of which are terrible
