Sheep
Sheep or domestic sheep (''Ovis aries'') are domesticated, ruminant mammals typically kept as livestock. Although the term ''sheep'' can apply to other species in the genus ''Ovis'', in everyday usage it almost always refers to domesticated sheep. Like all ruminants, sheep are members of the order Artiodactyla, the even-toed ungulates. Numbering a little over one billion, domestic sheep are also the most numerous species of sheep. An adult female is referred to as a ''ewe'' (), an intact male as a ''ram'', occasionally a ''tup'', a castrated male as a ''wether'', and a young sheep as a ''lamb''. Sheep are most likely descended from the wild mouflon of Europe and Asia, with Iran being a geographic envelope of the domestication center. One of the earliest animals to be domesticated for agricultural purposes, sheep are raised for fleeces, meat (lamb, hogget or mutton) and milk. A sheep's wool is the most widely used animal fiber, and is usually harvested by shearing. In Commonw ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The Lamb, Bloomsbury
The Lamb is a Grade II listed pub at 94 Lamb's Conduit Street, in the London Borough of Camden, London.

The Lamb was refurbished in the Victorian era and is one of the few remaining pubs with ' snob screens' which allowed the well-to-do drinker not to see the bar staff, and vice versa. Charles Dickens lived locally and is reputed to have frequented The Lamb.

The Lamb (Tavener)
''The Lamb'' is a choral work written in 1982 by British composer John Tavener (1944–2013). It is a setting of music to the William Blake poem " The Lamb" from Blake's collection of poems ''Songs of Innocence and of Experience'' (1789). It is one of Tavener's best known works. Written for unaccompanied SATB choir, the music is minimalistic and combines chromaticism with more conventional harmony. ''The Lamb'' was premiered in Winchester Cathedral on 22 December 1982. It was also performed at the Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols in Kings College Chapel, Cambridge, on Christmas Eve of the same year. This gave the piece widespread exposure, and it has since become a common part of church services, especially around Christmas. ''The Lamb'' featured in the soundtrack for Paolo Sorrentino's film ''The Great Beauty'' and has been a set work for the Edexcel A level music examination. History John Tavener was a composer of religious works. His early education centred around a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
