Real Estate

Real estate or fixed property is a lawful term that encompasses land along with anything forever affixed to the land, such as buildings. Real estate (immovable property) is often believe identical with real property (also at times called realty), in contrast with personal property also called chattel or personality. On the other hand, for technical purposes, some people prefer to distinguish real estate, referring to the land and equipment themselves, from real property, referring to ownership rights over real estate. The conditions of real estate and real property are used mostly in common law, as civil law jurisdictions refer in its place to immovable property.

In current years, many economists have known that the lack of effective real estate laws can be an essential barrier to investment in many developing countries. In the greater part societies, rich or poor, a significant fraction of the total wealth is in the form of land and buildings.

This last group contains asteroids, Kuiper belt objects, comets, meteoroids and interplanetary dust.

In wide terms, the charted regions of the Solar System contains Sun, four terrestrial inner planets, an asteroid belt composed of small rocky bodies, four gas giant outer planets, and a second belt, called the Kuiper belt, collected of icy objects. Beyond the Kuiper belt lays the scattered disc, the heliopause, and finally the hypothetical Oort cloud.

In type of their distances from the Sun, the planets are Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Venus, Earth, Mars, Uranus, and Neptune. Six of the eight planets are in turn orbited by natural satellites, generally termed "moons" after Earth's Moon, and each of the outer planets is encircled by planetary rings of dust and added particles. All the planets apart from Earth are named after gods and goddesses from Greco-Roman mythology. The three dwarf planets are Pluto, the largest well-known Kuiper belt object; Ceres, the biggest object in the asteroid belt; and Eris, which lies in the scattered disc.

Short note on Shuttlecock

A shuttlecock is a high-drag projectile used in the sport of badminton. It has an open conical shape: the cone is shaped from sixteen overlapping goose feathers surrounded into a rounded cork base. The cork is covered with thin leather. The shuttlecock's form makes it extremely aerodynamically steady. In spite of of initial orientation, it will turn to fly cork first, and stay in the cork-first orientation. The name shuttlecock is normally shortened to shuttle; a shuttlecock may as well be known as a bird or birdie. The abbreviation cock is not often used except in a funny sense, due to its vulgar connotations. The "shuttle" part of the name was most expected derived from its back-and-forth movement during the game, close to the shuttle of a loom; the "cock" part of the name was almost positively derived from the likeness of the feathers to a bird's crest.
