Kana
Kana (仮名) are syllabic Japanese scripts, a part of the Japanese writing system contrasted with the logographic Chinese characters known in Japan as kanji (漢字). There are three kana scripts: modern cursive hiragana (ひらがな) that in past time known as a women script (women handwriting), modern angular katakana (カタカナ), and the old syllabic use of kanji known as man’yōgana (万葉仮名) that was ancestral to both. Hentaigana (変体仮名, "variant kana") are historical variants of modern standard hiragana. In modern Japanese, hiragana and katakana have directly corresponding character sets (different sets of characters representing the same sounds).
Katakana with a few additions is also used to write Ainu. Kana was used in Taiwanese as a gloss (furigana) for Chinese characters during the Japanese administration of Taiwan. See Taiwanese kana.
Each kana character (syllabogram) corresponds to one sound in the Japanese language. This is always CV (consonant onset with vowel nucleus), such as ka, ki, etc., or V (vowel), such as a, i, etc., with the sole exception of the C grapheme for nasal codas usually romanised as n. This structure had some scholars label the system moraic instead of syllabic, because it requires the combination of two syllabograms to represent a CVC syllable with coda (i.e. CVn, CVm, CVng), a CVV syllable with complex nucleus (i.e. multiple or expressively long vowels), or a CCV syllable with complex onset (i.e. including a glide, CyV, CwV).
Kanał
Kanał (Polish pronunciation: [ˈkanaw], Sewer) is a 1956 Polish film directed by Andrzej Wajda. It was the first film made about the 1944 Warsaw Uprising, telling the story of a company of Home Army resistance fighters escaping the Nazi onslaught through the city's sewers. Kanał is the second film of Wajda's War Trilogy, preceded by A Generation and followed by Ashes and Diamonds.
The film was the winner of the Special Jury Award at the 1957 Cannes Film Festival.
Plot
It is 25 September 1944, during the last days of the Warsaw Uprising. Lieutenant Zadra leads a unit of 43 soldiers and civilians to a new position amidst the ruins of the now isolated southern Mokotów district of Warsaw.
The composer Michał manages to telephone his wife and child in another part of the city that is being overrun by the Germans. After a few words, she tells him that the Germans are clearing the building and that they are coming for her. Then the line goes dead. The next morning, 23-year-old Officer Cadet Korab apologizes after walking into a room to find the second in command, Lieutenant Mądry, and messenger girl Halinka in bed together (Halinka later reveals that Mądry is her first lover). A German attack is beaten off, but Korab is wounded while disabling a Goliath tracked mine.
Kana Software
KANA Software, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Verint Systems (NASDAQ: VRNT) and provides on-premises and cloud computing hosted customer engagement optimization (CEO) products to many of the Fortune 500, mid-market businesses and government agencies.
History
Mark Gainey founded KANA in 1996 to market a software package designed to help businesses manage email and Web-based communications. It grew around this core offering. In 1999, KANA Communications (as it was then known) acquired Connectify followed by Business Evolution and NetDialog. In 2000, KANA made its then-largest acquisition, Silknet Software. The purchase price was $4.2 billion, despite the fact that both companies were relatively small. Silknet was an early multichannel marketing software company. Industry analysts were generally cool to the purchase though some said it made sense strategically. In 2001, KANA merged with BroadBase software. KANA was a major stock market success during the dot-com bubble, and while it contracted significantly during the following downturn, it remained in business as an independent company through the following decade.

Mama Song
by: Ak-9ine[Intro]
Please let me know, tell me why you dissed us, never even missed us
[Verse 1]
Ah-yo, my mama she the only one raised me right
Taught me young, right from wrong, good and bad
Never knew my dad, but we had mama
Through all the drama and the rain, hard times and the pain
The type of shit that makes the average woman go insane, but you maintain
Laced her young brother on the block with some street game
Aiyyo, I never talk bad about my mother
She sacrificed and paid the price I love
No other could ever do what you did with four kids
Had to raise us by yourself because them dad slid
[Hook]
Please let me know, tell me why you dissed us, never even missed us
Please let me know, tell me why you dissed us, never even missed us
Please let me know, tell me why you dissed us, never even missed us
Please let me know, tell me why you dissed us, never even missed us
[God faced this world on you]
Please let me know, tell me why you dissed us, never even missed us
[mama dried your tears and be strong]
Please let me know, tell me why you dissed us, never even missed us
[gotta try do the best that you can]
Please let me know, tell me why you dissed us, never even missed us
[try to raise this boy to a man]
[Verse 2]
No more daddys around, so I'm the man
Relax, kick back, and put my feet on the couch
My pops was bangin' on the outs before my moms broke out
I smoke out and think about all the times we had, this shit was sad
Why you leave us dad, moms was lookin' hella mad
Tell me why you dissed us, birthdays and Christmas
I hope your ass is listenin', 'cause all the shit
you put us through, moms had to put us through
I hope I never resemble you, why they always tell I do
Look like you, talk like you, even gangsta walk like, but smoke you
I've never even seen you dude, probably robbed you once or twice
back when I was livin' tryin' get out the game to follow Christ
Tell how you sleep at night, kiss your kids and hug your wife, I'll be aight
I'm grown now and most of the pain is gone now
But you never taught me nothing, you never bought me nothing
And most of the stuff I learned in life I had to learn from uncles

[Verse 3]
We doin' far from the Huxtable, hopin' if I ate my vegetable
that I could grow up and buy you karats one day
Takin' trips around the world and maybe a house in the bay
I wants to give it to you, let you have it your way
We shoppin' today and everything you want is yours
I'm comin' through this industry kickin' down doors for my mama
Chill go spend a week in the Bahamas
Still wonder how you did it
You was young, but stayed committed
Had my aunties and my uncles help raise me as a child
O.G. Ed and Mariel and Powell
Can't forget my grandma, God bless her soul
She kept the lights on at night in case I came back home
The prodigal son, phenomenal one
Never thought I would see 21, let alone 25
And everything you taught me I'm using to stay alive
[Hook]
God faced this world on you, mama dried your tears and be strong
gotta try do the best that you can, try to raise this boy to a man
