Eyebrow
An eyebrow is an area of short hairs above each eye that follows the shape of the lower margin of the brow ridges of some mammals. In humans, eyebrows serve two main functions: first, communication through facial expression, and second, prevention of sweat, water, and other debris from falling down into the eye socket. It is common for people to modify their eyebrows by means of hair removal and makeup. Functions A number of theories have been proposed to explain the function of the eyebrow in humans. One approach suggests its main function is to prevent moisture (mostly sweat and rain) from flowing into the eye. Another theory holds that clearly visible eyebrows provided safety from predators when early hominid groups started sleeping on the ground. Recent research, however, suggests eyebrows in humans developed as a means of communication and that this is their primary function. Humans developed a smooth forehead with visible, hairy eyebrows capable of a wide range of movemen ...

The Raffles Burn runs through the site, marked on maps as the Brow Burn it flows into the Solway Firth at Lochar Bay. History The name may refer to the situation of the site that 'faces or confronts' the Lochar Water and the Solway Firth. The hamlet in 1747 consisted of four or more buildings on a minor road between Ruthwell and Caerlaverock. A ford in the 1800s ran across the sands and the Lochar Water from near Brow to Blackshaw Point. The Raffles or Brow Burn runs through the site after passing near to Clarencefield where it once powered a saw mill and then through the Brow Plantation to run through the sand banks at Lochar Bay where at low tide it joins the Lochar Water. Used as a staging post by drovers taking their cattle to England for sale, the hamlet had at Burns' time around a dozen houses. On ...

The Brow (formerly Brow Horn Orchestra) is a band from Fremantle, Western Australia. The recently reshaped band has transformed over the last two years in anticipation of new releases. Current members are Nicholas Owen (NDORSE), Ben Fear (Rogue Scholar), Karri Harper Meredith, Josh Ellis, Sam Timmerman, Josh Terlick, and Talia Hart. Biography Nicholas Owen and Karri Harper Meredith started playing together in 2007 as a busking duo performing on the streets of Fremantle in the business district.

The pair's first big show was in a band competition AmpFest, a great networking tool for The Brow to pick up some other gigs with local bands. During this period the duo played largely jam based material and some early renditions of songs which evolved o ...

Brow Point
Blue Whale Harbour () is a small, sheltered anchorage entered west-southwest of Cape Constance, along the north coast of South Georgia Island. It was charted in 1930 by Discovery Investigations personnel, along with its constituent features. It is named for the blue whale, a commercially important species which was once widely distributed in polar and subpolar waters; numbers are now very small. The headland Brow Point defines the harbour's westernmost boundary. Shelter Point projects into the west side of the harbour. Blue Whale Mountain rises to at the west side of Brow Point. Clarity Point is a headland on the east shore of the harbor. The feature was charted and initially named Clear Point by DI personnel. The name was amended by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UKAPC) in 1991 to avoid duplication of Clear Point at Leith Harbor in Stromness Bay. Cone Point marks the east side of the entrance to the harbour. The name appears to be first used on a 1931 Br ...
