HOW WAFFLES APPEARED
Do you like eating waffles? If so you can thank a careless knight of long ago. The first waffle is said to have been the result of an accident in a kitchen in England during the thirteenth century. How did it happen? A knight came into the kitchen as he got very hungry still wearing his armour. He made the mistake of sitting down on some freshly baked oat cakes. When he got up, the cakes were very much flattened. The metal links of the armour made deep imprints in the cakes. The knight was so hungry that he decided to eat the cakes anyway. He put some butter on them first. He and his wife had a nice little meal of the squashed hot cakes with butter. When they saw how nicely the melted butter stayed in the little squares', the couple decided to try the new kind of cakes more often. From that time on. the knight put his armour at least once a week to sit in the fresh oat cakes.

ISLANDS FOR SALE
Almost anyone can buy an island. “If you can buy a car. you can buy an island”, says Mr. Vladi. He estimates that if the place is uninhabited and there is no infrastructure in place, you need around £ 70,000 to buy an island. “All I can say is that my clients have a connection with nature, they have high intelligence, they have to be able to improvise, and above all they are individualists.” Desert islands have changed, solar energy is not difficult to get, the laptop computer and mobile phone era has arrived. Many of Mr. Vladi’s islands are priced around £150,000. For that you can buy Flatholnen, a 5,000 square-metre island in a Norwegian fjord. In the same price range there is Ilhote Grande, 42,000 square-metres, south of Rio de Janeiro. It has a rocky coastline, a four-room house, bananas and coconuts. Mr. Vladi’s biggest sale was an island for $12 million. There are a lot of Japanese customers around. Because of the financial crisis in the Far East, there are plenty of people wanting to move their capital into islands. Mr. Vladi himself now owns a Canadian isle and shares one in New Zealand.
Any person who’s got a car can buy an inhabited island.

LIVING IN THE OCEAN
Seas and oceans are large areas of salt water. 1. ... Many animals living in seas and oceans are now in great danger from pollution of their habitats, and from hunting and fishing. The Arctic and Southern Oceans contain very cold water. 2. ... Polar bears live in the Arctic Ocean, and on the ice there. 3. ... They feed on fish and seals. White fur helps to keep polar bears hidden against the ice and snow. Penguins cannot fly but they are excellent swimmers. 4. ... Penguins use their narrow wings as flippers. Seals cannot breathe underwater. 5. ... Seals eat fish and shellfish. A thick layer of fat under the skin keeps seals warm in icy water. Whales live in the sea. 6. ... There are more than 80 different kinds. Whales are very intelligent animals. Many of them are in danger from hunting and pollution. Toothed whales such as dolphins, eat quid and fish. Some whales have no teeth. They eat animal plankton. 7. ... Different animals live in different parts of the sea, from the surface down to the bottom. Octopuses have eight long arms, called tentacles. 8. ... Plankton are tiny plants and animals that live near the surface. Larger animals, such as whales and fish, eat them. Plankton are very important in the ocean food chain. Many sharks have very sharp teeth. They eat fish, seals, turtles, small whales and even other sharks. 9. ... It is cold and dark in the deepest parts of the ocean. 10. ... A deep-sea angler fish can light up the lure on its head. Smaller animals swim towards the light and the angler fish catches them in its mouth. There are still many discoveries to be made about life in the ocean. Scientists use underwater ships, called submersibles, to explore the deepest parts.
