O abacá, também conhecido como cânhamo-de-manila, cânhamo-de-manilha, alvacá, bananeira-de-corda, bananeira-de-flor e bandala (Musa textilis) é um tipo de bananeira que porporciona também uma das mais importantes matérias-primas para a cordaria. Os seus frutos não são comestíveis. Com as fibras dela extraídas, são feitos os cabos usados em todo o mundo para amarrar os navios nos portos. É usado de preferência a qualquer outra fibra porque, além de sua enorme resistência à tensão, é dificilmente deteriorável sob a ação da água, doce ou salgada. As fibras dessa musácea tropical têm de dois a quatro metros de comprimento e procedem dos pecíolos de suas folhas. A plantação tem o aspecto de um bananal e as plantas são cortadas pela base antes que cheguem a frutificar. O abacá é empregado também na manufatura de cordéis, sacos, linhas e redes de pescar, tapetes, papel de embrulho e pasta de papel. As ilhas Filipinas têm sido, desde tempos imemoriais, o principal centro produtor. Durante a II Guerra Mundial, as plantações dos EUA na América Central, iniciadas na década de 1920, supriram o mercado aliado. Alguns países da região são hoje grandes produtores.

Lettris

Lettris is a curious tetris-clone game where all the bricks have the same square shape but different content. Each square carries a letter. To make squares disappear and save space for other squares you have to assemble English words (left, right, up, down) from the falling squares.

boggle

Boggle gives you 3 minutes to find as many words (3 letters or more) as you can in a grid of 16 letters. You can also try the grid of 16 letters. Letters must be adjacent and longer words score better. See if you can get into the grid Hall of Fame !
