    Phew! I'm relieved. I was about to send out a summons for a parent-teacher conference. :tongue

    Love the buzz on the thread! Have had a bit of running around to do so haven't been able to tackle the puzzles. Will try my hand later today.

    @Neurtites,

    In my quest for animation, cartoon, illustrations and sketches I landed at best animated short films. These are short animated films of 2-15 min duration.

    Easy to find(most are available on public domain) and watch during commute.
    Loved "Paperman" (2012) "Old man and the sea" (1999).

    My parents are used to a home bound waif with bruises and dishevelled hair beating up neighbourhood lads. sokanasanah's parents may be shocked at the unruly and ill-disciplined company he has been keeping that someone assaulted their well-behaved & groomed kid.


    My dad might even say - "Has she broken only limbs in the scuffle or caused grave damage"

    Actually it is 1/10 for the effort.
    I'm a lazy person and all that search, clipping, cropping & alignment tires me.

    Now I discovered the app: "picstich"
    Below puzzle created in 45 sec.

    Select the layout , clip the image, copy & upload here.

    The ancient roots of the word are proto-Indo-Eurpoean, so not simply restricted to continental languages. The common thread stretches all the way across, from star (English) to stern (German) to stella (Latin) to aster / astra (Greek / Latin) to Tara (Sanskrit) to Sitara (Urdu / Hindustani).
