The Cobra Plans A bit harder to make, but well worth the effort. The pussy cat doesn't care for the cobra too much. This is to give you an idea of the size you can make them with my plans. You could scale it down for smaller snakes. You can tell I enjoy making the cobras. I got started and just didn't want to quit! Top The cobra snake plans run $10.00 postage paid in the USA. They are a bit harder to construct, involves no carving, only sanding. I use a 4 inch X 36 inch sander and a dremel rotary tool. Also a drill press and a bandsaw with a 1/8 inch blade, I'm sure a scrollsaw would work too. These make great gifts and toys, but I would encourage you to make a couple of the regular snakes first, to get the experience.

WWW Virtual Library - Sri Lanka Home Tsunamil Ethnic Conflict ... People SNAKE CHARMERS of Sri Lanka The Cobra Dance Snake charmers have always been part of the mysterious cultures of both Sri Lanka and neighbouring India. This is hardly surprising to those who have a knowledge of the mystical practices of some sects of Hinduism, since the cobra has long been revered as something of a god which must be treated with respect and even worshipped, or it will bring down the wrath of the gods and great harm will befall the non-believers. © Explore Sri Lanka Snake charmers are a common sight for visitors to Sri Lanka. Be it on a street corner in downtown Colombo, a secluded beach at one of the country"s numerous resorts, or on a trip to the beautiful central hills, you will see these men in turbans, carrying a bamboo flute and a harmless looking basket in which resides a deadly cobra. A snake charmer begins his performance by removing the lid of the snake basket and playing a few notes on his flute. As if in response to the summoning of the strange and melancholy tune, the cobra will slither out of the basket and gaze around at the growing circle of onlookers. Within a few moments the deadly serpent becomes attracted to the music and the movements of the snake charmer and concentrates its full attention on him. Raising a third of its nearly two metre long body off the ground, it flattens its neck into a fascinating shape with a strange yellow blotch at the back, and begins to sway to and fro, apparently to the rhythm of the snake charmer"s melody.

animals The Truth behind Snake-Charming The cobra is most popular as a source of public amusement. Snake-charmers use this highly venomous elapid specie to entertain people in a very odd way. Everything is so strange: the snake-charmer sits cross-legged playing his flute and the snake in front of him sways to the sounds in a standing position, ready to bite. But it doesn’t!

Most species can rise to approximately one third of their body lengths. Dr. Wolfgang Wuster, a cobra researcher at the University of Whales, says that standing is the natural defensive posture of the cobra. This is a kind of warning signal to the enemies. The scientist explains that a cobra that has been in a basket for a while will rear up its body when the lid is removed. This is a natural response of the startled snake. Also, the cobra may spread a hood, another element of the defensive posture, by spreading its ribs located in the neck under elastic skin. In a “charming” situation, the cobra seems to be hypnotized by the pleasant sounds of the flute. Scientists say that cobras cannot hear the way people do. However, they are very sensitive to vibrations and, perhaps, are able to feel the music. Indeed

On this page: Encyclopedia WordNet Marine Lingo Wikipedia Best of Web Mentioned In Or search: - The Web - Images - News - Blogs - Shopping snake Encyclopedia Snake, river, 1,038 mi (1,670 km) long, NW United States, the chief tributary of the Columbia; once called the Lewis River. The Snake rises in NW Wyoming, in Yellowstone National Park, flows through Jackson Lake in Grand Teton National Park, then S and W into Idaho and northwest to its junction with the Henrys Fork River. The combined stream runs southwest, then northwest, crossing southern Idaho through the Snake River plain; there are several notable falls. The Snake makes a bend into Oregon and turns north to form the Idaho-Oregon and Idaho-Washington lines (receiving several tributaries, including the Boise and Salmon rivers), then turns at Lewiston, Idaho (at the mouth of the Clearwater River), and flows generally west to join the Columbia River near Pasco, Wash. Hell's Canyon is the greatest of the Snake's many gorges and one of the deepest in the world. Extending c.125 mi (200 km) N along the Oregon-Idaho line, it reaches a maximum depth of c.7,900 ft (2,410 m). The Snake was explored by the Lewis and Clark expedition (1803–6) and was of major importance in U.S. expansion into the Pacific Northwest. The river is a major source of electricity, having numerous hydroelectric power plants. The upper and middle courses of the Snake and its tributaries are much used for irrigation by private projects (one of the most notable being at Twin Falls) and by projects of the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, including the Minidoka project, the Boise project, the Palisades project, and the Owyhee project. Four navigation and hydroelectric power projects along the lower Snake provide slack water navigation from the mouth of the Snake 140 mi (225 km) upstream to Lewiston, Idaho. The projects are linked with the navigation system on the Columbia River. The late 1990s brought efforts to restore portions of the river by removing gravel and establishing new islands.

97. Ophic Mysteries How Could The Ancient Egyptians Have Adored The The snake specifically the cobra snake -was the symbol of one of the most What, then, did the cobra of Egypt represent that made the snake cults http://www.viewzone.com/snakex.html

How could the ancient Egyptians have adored the loathsome snake? First a distinction must be made between symbols and things symbolized. The snake- specifically the cobra snake -was the symbol of one of the most important Egyptian gods. This almost constitutes a definition of idolatry, but never mind; the prejudice against the belief in idols is a modern judgment. We have seen winners of the Academy Award stroke and kiss the Oscar. We may overlook the hint of idolatry with the understanding that it is not the statue which is the object of attention, but what the statue stands for. In a like manner the Egyptians overlooked the implied worship of dangerous snakes as show. What, then, did the cobra of Egypt represent that made the snake cults acceptable to them? It is important to note that the most venerated of the Egyptian gods was Ra, and that he was symbolized by a man-like figure crowned with the sun disk, surrounded by a serpent. This symbol, in turn, was venerated as Uraeus. What has been overlooked in the popular interest in things Egyptian is the relationship between the Uraeus and Ra. For reasons which will become clearer, this minor deity may be understood as the offspring of Ra, much as the Greeks had it that Athena was born from the forehead of Zeus. The wide acceptance of the importance of the cobra in the pantheon of the Egyptians can be seen in the common application of the cobra to the foreheads of statues of Egyptian royals and on burial sarcophagi. The cobra seen upon statuary is known particularly as Wadjet. This name, however, blends over the millennia of Egyptian civilization with Isis, via the intermediate name Ua Zit, meaning "supreme queen," through Au Set, and back again into Isis. What matters for this discussion is the devotion of the Egyptians to a female deity, and what that tells about their beliefs surrounding generation.
