Water (2005 film)

Water (Hindi: वाटर), is a 2005 Indo-Canadian film written and directed by Deepa Mehta, with screenplay by Anurag Kashyap. It is set in 1938 and explores the lives of widows at an ashram in Varanasi, India. The film is also the third and final instalment of Mehta's Elements trilogy. It was preceded by Fire (1996) and Earth (1998). Author Bapsi Sidhwa wrote the 2006 novel based upon the film, Water: A Novel, published by Milkweed Press. Sidhwa's earlier novel, Cracking India was the basis for Earth, the second film in the trilogy. Water is a dark introspect into the tales of rural Indian widows in the 1940s and covers controversial subjects such as misogyny and ostracism. The film premiered at the 2005 Toronto International Film Festival, where it was honoured with the Opening Night Gala, and was released across Canada in November of that year. It was first released in India on 9 March 2007.

The film stars Seema Biswas, Lisa Ray, John Abraham, and Sarala Kariyawasam in pivotal roles and Kulbhushan Kharbanda, Waheeda Rehman, Raghuvir Yadav, and Vinay Pathak in supporting roles. Featured songs for the film were composed by A. R. Rahman, with lyrics by Sukhwinder Singh and Raqeeb Alam while the background score was composed by Mychael Danna. Cinematography is by Giles Nuttgens, who has worked with Deepa Mehta on several of her films.

Ice

Ice is water frozen into a solid state. Depending on the presence of impurities such as particles of soil or bubbles of air, it can appear transparent or a more or less opaque bluish-white color.

In the Solar System, ice is abundant and occurs naturally from as close to the Sun as Mercury to as far as the Oort cloud. Beyond the Solar System, it occurs as interstellar ice. It is abundant on Earth's surface  particularly in the polar regions and above the snow line  and, as a common form of precipitation and deposition, plays a key role in Earth's water cycle and climate. It falls as snowflakes and hail or occurs as frost, icicles or ice spikes.

Ice molecules can exhibit up to sixteen different phases (packing geometries) that depend on temperature and pressure. When water is cooled rapidly (quenching), up to three different types of amorphous ice can form depending on the history of its pressure and temperature. When cooled slowly correlated proton tunneling occurs below 20 K giving rise to macroscopic quantum phenomena. Virtually all the ice on Earth's surface and in its atmosphere is of a hexagonal crystalline structure denoted as ice Ih (spoken as "ice one h") with minute traces of cubic ice denoted as ice Ic. The most common phase transition to ice Ih occurs when liquid water is cooled below 0°C (273.15K, 32°F) at standard atmospheric pressure. It may also be deposited directly by water vapor, as happens in the formation of frost. The transition from ice to water is melting and from ice directly to water vapor is sublimation.

Water (Martika song)

"Water" is the final single from Martika's self-titled debut, Martika. "Water" was never released as a single in the US, but peaked at number 59 on the UK Singles Chart in March 1990, and number 98 on the Australian ARIA singles chart in April 1990. The version released on the single was a remix of the album version, simply titled 7" remix.

    Sound

    "Musically, it’s by the same producers so it’s gonna have the same type of feel. But it’s different because on the joints I think our message also sets the tone. Like, we are that last instrument. And we tried to do that intentionally on the project. It’s a lot of melodies on the project. It’s a lot of things like… We brought the best out of each other I think. Like, O brought the best out of me. I’ve learned at this stage of my game, “Oh, this is how you attack something like that when you wanna attack it with some melody…” ‘Cause I definitely know O specializes in that. So, I think we gained a lot from each other and learned when we go on and do our next project, “Oh, I could add this to my shit. This is somethin’ I learned from my cohort, my partna.” So that’s dope. And a lot of that is reflected in the music, how we feed off of each other.", said AG.

    US History

    by: Flipsyde

    Hustlin's in my blood my father's name is Britain
    His history consisted of robbery killin' and pimpin
    Filthy rich and the biggest killer that you ever seen
    Once I'm older I'm takin' over ima be king
    I was locked up in jail when he got the new land
    Opened his cells I guess that's how the story began
    First mission was to clear it out and claim it as mine
    Indigenous people were peaceful it took no time
    Great grandmother Africa was blind and disabled
    Sons was traitors we played divide and conquer invaded
    Sold her children into slavery and profited quick
    Started makin' side deals and that's how I got rich
    Daddy Britain found out and tried to put me in check
    He don't understand I'm a man and I deserve some respect
    Tried to bring it to me but I play for keeps and I won
    Still my daddy but you ain't the only man with a gun
    More money More problems little brother is wild
    They call 'em The South he's country with a big ass mouth
    Tried to show 'em new business but he don't wanna change
    I love 'em but I knew eventually I'd blow out his brains
    I'm America!
    You know you know God Bless America
    You know you know God Bless America
    You know you know God Bless
    Me and my daddy still cool and my uncles is with us
    France Russia and Italy and we all killas
    But it's this nigga named Germany that's out of control
    Rollin with Japan and Turkey and them niggas is bold
    Started fuckin' with my uncles and we all went to war
    Uncle France damn near died at the tip of his sword
    When the smoke cleared we won let 'em retreat
    Shoulda' killed 'em cause they knew they had us close to defeat
    Kicked it off again 20 years later it was on
    This time my uncle Italy traded and he was gone
    I was neutral when Japan hit me guess that he knew
    I aint gone' let my family fight without me jumpin' in too
    Woulda' lost if I didn't hit Germany's weapon supply
    Kamikaze Japanese was always ready to die
    Dropped atomic bomb let them niggas know that it's real
    Speak soft with a big stick do what I say or be killed
    I'm America!
    You know you know God Bless America
    You know you know God Bless America
    You know you know God Bless
    I'm racin' with my uncle Russia we the ones with the guns
    He supported the North so I rolled with South Vietnam
    Thought it would be easy but almost 60 thousand died
    They was harder than Korea so we ran for our lives
    It's a family called the Middle East and they got bread
    Sellin' oil they don't cut me in then off with their head
    I got a nephew named Israel that's right in the middle
    Pay his allowance as long as he can dance to my fiddle
    I had a patna' named Iraq gave 'em weapons and money
    Nigga started getting' power and he start actin' funny
    Saudi Arabia's cool gotta son Bin Laden
    I was trainin' his soldiers to go against the Russians and stop 'em
    Then he tried to say I need to take my soldiers and cut
    Gave 'em the finger that's when he flipped and blew my shit up
    I took it to 'em, and then I took it back to Iraq and if you ain't my blood brother you gonna be flat on
    yo' back
    The sons of Africa just invented this shit called rap
    Tellin' my secrets that's why I'm puttin' their heads on flat
    Built an empire quick and it might not last
    But I bet I go down in history as the one that smashed
    I'm America!
    You know you know God Bless America
    You know you know God Bless America
    You know you know God Bless
