Libellula depressa, commonly known as the broad-bodied chaser or broad-bodied darter, is a
dragonfly in the family
Libellulidae. One of the most common dragonflies in Europe and central Asia, its range extends to England, central Asia and the Middle East, with a few limited populations in Scotland. It is not found in Ireland or North Africa, however. This insect is around 39 to 48 millimetres (1.5 to 1.9 inches) in length, with both the male and the female having a broad, flattened abdomen which is brown with yellow patches down the sides. In the male, the abdomen develops a blue
pruinescence that covers the brown colour. Both fore and hind wings have a dark patch at the base. This male L. depressa dragonfly was photographed at
Wolvercote Lakes in Oxfordshire, England.

"Cross Road Blues" is a song written by the American
blues artist
Robert Johnson. He sang it as a solo piece with
acoustic slide guitar in the
Delta blues style. The lyrics describe Johnson's grief at being unable to catch a ride at an intersection before the sun sets. Some have attached a supernatural significance to the song. One of Johnson's two recorded performances was released in 1937 as a single, heard mainly in the
Mississippi Delta area. The second, which reached a wider audience, was included on King of the Delta Blues Singers, a compilation album of some of Johnson's songs released in 1961 during the
American folk music revival.
Elmore James recorded a version of the song in 1954, and another in either 1960 or 1961. In the late 1960s, guitarist
Eric Clapton and his bandmates in the British rock group
Cream(pictured) popularized it as "Crossroads". Their
blues rock interpretation became one of their best-known songs, inspiring many cover versions. (Full article...)
PersianPoetGal here, pleasure to make your acquaintance. I'm a half
Persian (
Iranian) female born and raised in great sunny
California! I enjoy many things such as
poetry (obvious of course),
reading,
writing,
history, playing
video games,
filmmaking, light
programming, and just making a person's day better :). I used to be active at the Windows Movie Maker Forums but now I have sort of semi-retired due to being crammed with my studies. I also contributed to "The Persian Page", a page devoted to implementing custom effects and transitions into Windows Movie Maker 2 using
xml which is hosted and now fully edited by "PapaJohn" Buechler. I voluntarily patrol the
"Recent Changes Page". While on patrol I keep on the lookout to make sure articles are free of
vandalism and abide by the
Wikipedia Golden Rules :P. I also help create
Wikipedia Ads for different WikiProjects, see this
page for details. Believe it or not I start new articles and edit pre-existing ones every now and then! So please feel free to mercilessly
any of my Wiki-Contributions just the same. I honestly feel there is always someone who can add a little extra ;). However, those not-so-nice enough to
vandalize my page or anyone else's for that matter, it will not do you any
good. Thanks for reading a little bit about me :D!
This section is not merely devoted to the awards I receive but to the users who take the time out of their day to reward others with such kindness. Thanks nice Wikipedians!
