Sphagnum bogs are also used for outdoor recreation, with activities including ecotourism and hunting. For example, many popular canoe routes in northern Canada include areas of peatland. Some other activities, such as all-terrain vehicle use, are especially damaging to bogs. [ citation needed] [40] Archaeology [ edit ] Well!” The vice-principal clapped his hands. He had a day to live, quotas to fulfill. “We will be studying her, then. She will give us all an exciting new perspective on our modern life and times—Oh my! Oh dear.” The Bog Girl had slumped into his aloe planter. Nearly 20 years on, though, Carr’s play resembles a more specific satire: the venal Kilbride family, marrying into a “few lumpy auld acres” of land, epitomise the crude beginnings of the Celtic Tiger years. Here, Marion O’Dwyer, playing gloriously against type, makes for a deliciously coarse Mrs Kilbride, crowing about the cost of her shoes, devoted to her son (Barry John O’Connor): the ancient Greek-Irish mammy. Any further discussion of the gameplay would be utterly redundant. If you know anything about the kids in your life, you’ll know very well by now whether they’ll take to it or not. It’s a game for kids who snigger and guffaw; Og makes them feel a bit naughty, without them – you know – being actually naughty. Let them get it out of their system. Just as Og does.

As stated earlier, an OG is also authentic, exceptional, or admirable. Young people often call older people, like their grandparents, OGs. You'll also see this for historical figures, artists, sports legends, and anyone who deserves admiration. So if someone refers to you as an OG, you should take it as a huge compliment. Aldhouse-Green presents two main strands of evidence to argue that it does. One comes from classical antiquity. Several Roman historians, including Strabo, Tacitus, and Julius Caesar, described versions of human sacrifice being practiced by the peoples of northern Europe. Sometimes it was a means of telling the future, and at other times it was done as part of a cult associated with a particular god or temple. Bogs are recognized as a significant/specific habitat type by a number of governmental and conservation agencies. They can provide habitat for mammals, such as caribou, moose, and beavers, as well as for species of nesting shorebirds, such as Siberian cranes and yellowlegs. Bogs contain species of vulnerable reptilians such as the bog turtle. [19] Bogs even have distinctive insects; English bogs give a home to a yellow fly called the hairy canary fly ( Phaonia jaroschewskii), and bogs in North America are habitat for a butterfly called the bog copper ( Lycaena epixanthe). In Ireland, the viviparous lizard, the only known reptile in the country, dwells in bogland. [20]In his fantasy life, Cillian drew the noose tighter and tighter. He imagined, with a strange joy, the narrow life they would lead. No children, no sex, no messy nights vomiting outside bars, no unintended pregnancies, no fights in the street, no betrayals, no surprises, no broken promises, no promises. Gorham, E. (1991). "Northern peatlands role in the carbon cycle and probable responses to climatic warming". Ecological Applications. 1 (2): 182–95. doi: 10.2307/1941811. JSTOR 1941811. PMID 27755660. S2CID 2701885. A red cross means you have made a noise and it is not safe to tip-toe up to Og's bog, your turn is over and the next player spins.

Differing theories of the origin of bog-standard have been proposed, but none proven. An immediate association with bog n. 1 seems unlikely on semantic grounds. The most commonly held view is that the transition from box to bog resulted from a mishearing or misunderstanding of box standard n. Archibold, O.W. (1995). Ecology of World Vegetation.
