One of the most popular musical instruments is the piano. In the traditional musical instrument classification system of string, woodwind, percussion and brass, the piano falls into two categories. It is considered a string instrument because the sound comes from the strings inside the piano. It is also considered a percussion instrument, since the player strikes the keyboard, which signals an internal hammer to strike the strings.

The piano is both a string and percussion instrument.

Irish immigration to the U.S. began during the early development of the American colonies. It is estimated that 200,000 Irish came to the U.S. in the 17th and 18th centuries. The numbers swelled from 1820 to 1850 to almost 2 million Irish immigrants. Most of these were fleeing the potato famine from 1845 until 1852. Steady numbers continued to arrive during the late 19th and 20th centuries. Today, over 36 million Americans claim some level of Irish ancestry

Many Irish have come to the United states during the 19th and 20th centuries.

When you see a butterfly, what is the first thing you look at? Many people concentrate on the beautiful colors or patterns on the butterfly's wings. But remember that butterflies are not born with beautiful wings. In fact, they go through what are known as life cycles, meaning their lives follow different steps for them to become butterflies. Step One: the egg. Every butterfly begins its life as a tiny egg. Step Two: the larva. You probably know this stage very well. Another name for the larva is caterpillar! The caterpillar hatches from the egg and immediately begins to eat things like leaves. Step Three: the pupa. This is the stage where the caterpillar goes into what looks like a tight green sleeping bag. You may have seen one of these hanging on a branch before. This is where the caterpillar goes before the final step. Step Four: adult. Also known as the beautiful butterfly! The butterfly emerges from the pupa and stretches out its wings before it takes off for flight!

The butterfly goes through distinct life stages before it develops its beautiful wings.

As important as water conservation is, it is also very easy. A few simple habits can significantly reduce the water consumption of a household. One way to save water is to turn off the faucet when brushing your teeth. Also, don’t allow faucets to drip; one drip can waste a large amount of water over a short period of time. Baths require less water than showers, so by taking a bath instead of a shower, you can reduce the amount of water your home uses. In the kitchen, running a dishwasher when it is completely full, rather than half full, can save up to 20 gallons a day. These simple changes will save water and save money.
