Oracle Tablespace
a: The tablespace ~
b: The Queen Bee of the Oracle Hive
What: Within the Oracle instance, the database files have the complexity and order of a beehive. The tablespace is like The Queen Bee of the Oracle Hive. The tablespace is the Queen Bee and the *.dbf files are her DNA. The worker bees in the instance, the background processes and memory structures have but one purpose; they provide for the access, maintenance and preservation of the *.dbf files. The DNA of the database.

Our Inner Skin........
a: Endothelium ~
b: skin inside our blood vessels
What: "It is true that the endothelium is like the skin inside our blood vessels, and like skin, it repairs and replaces itself rather quickly. And, also like skin, there is a very large area covered with this layer."

a: histamine ~
b: dispatcher
What:
"So, the answer to part of your question is that histamine does NOT attack antigens. It would be the neutrophils that actually do that. Think of the histamine as being the manager/agent of the little dudes in the WBC bank. The histamine is like the dispatcher that sends the little dudes out to go and get the actual dirty work done. "

a: electron shells ~
b: bubbles of space bursting
What:
"The thing that produces quanta is the loss of energy. Electron shell-size decay is what produces quanta. What we call "light" is electromagnetic energy that has been shed. Light is also waves passing through space. The waves aren't things unto themselves, but are ripples in space. This means that light and space are one and the same thing. And since light comes from the collapse of electron shells, the electron itself is space in another form. Collapsing electron shells are like bubbles of space bursting."
