Murphy's Law
I spilled the beans --- William Bertrand Formation Langues
Murphy's Law ("If anything can go wrong, it will") was born at Edwards Air Force Base in 1949.
It was named after Capt. Edward A. Murphy, an engineer working on an Air Force Project designed to see how much sudden deceleration a person can stand in a crash. One day, after finding that something was wired wrong, he cursed the technician responsible and said, "If there is any way to do it wrong, he'll find it." The contractor's project manager kept a list of "laws" and added this one, which he called Murphy's Law. Actually, what he did was take an old law that had been around for years in a more basic form and give it a name.

VOCABULARY : HOUSE
10 Idioms about Home:
Just like a house or a home, idioms and expressions are integral parts of daily life. Due to their non-literal nature, many people wonder what are idioms and what do they mean? These quick expressions explain common scenarios in an abstract manner. Everyday events are frequently centered on houses. After a vacation, everyone wants to return home to resume their routine. The normalcy of life at home has made houses a common theme in many idioms. Here are 10 examples of idioms that are based on home and farm life.
1.) Go home to get beauty sleep
Here’s an example:
"Jamie needs to get up early. We’d better let her go home to get her beauty sleep."
2.) Run home to mama
When someone runs home to mama, it means they are giving up something important like marriage to return to a comfortable place. Here’s an example:
"Whenever Paul gets hurt, he runs home to mama."
3.) Close to home
When something is uncomfortably near or real, it’s close to home. Here’s an example:
"John’s remarks about distracted drivers hit Mary close to home because her mother died in a car accident."
4.) Coming home to roost
Mistakes from the past often come back to haunt people. Here’s an example:
"Jerry tore his pants climbing over a fence. He knew the chickens would come home to roost when his mom noticed the tear."
5.) Until the cows come home
A herd of cows does what it wants on its own schedule. There’s no predicting their actions. They will return from the pasture in an indefinite period of time. Here’s an example:
"Mark told Miranda he would love her until the cows came home."
6.) The lights are on, but nobody’s home
This humorous idiom does not mean that a family has gone out and left the lights blazing. It traditionally means someone is attractive but not very smart. Here’s an example:
"The male model was handsome but stupid. His lights are on, but nobody’s home."
7.) Eaten out of house and home
This idiom is frequently applied to guests or children who are prone to raiding refrigerators and pantries. Here’s an example:
"When Irene visits her grandparents, she always eats them out of house and home."
8.) A home away from home
Some people have vacation homes, and other people have stomping grounds that they know intimately. Here’s an example:
"Mike goes to Baltimore every weekend. It’s his home away from home."
9.) It’s nothing to write home about
If something is particularly boring or mundane, it is nothing to write home about. Here’s an example:
"The meal was okay, but it was nothing to write home about."
10.) Home is where the heart is
In some cases, a home is an intangible location based on emotions. This idiom signifies individuals who follow their hearts, or it can describe individuals who wish to return to their beloved home. Here’s an example:
"Josephine decided to travel to China with her boyfriend. After all, home is where the heart is."
Home-related idioms and expressions can be silly, comforting or insightful. These are just a few of the English idioms that represent concrete and abstract ideas about homes.

BIOGRAPHY: AGATHA CHRISTIE
Agatha Christie's biography
Agatha Christie is the world's best-known mystery writer. Her books have been sold over billion copies in English and another billion over 45 foreign languages. She is outsold only by the bible and Shakespeare.
Agatha Miller was born in Torquay,England on September 15th, 1890.In 1914 she married Colonel Archibald Christie,an aviator in the Royal Flying Corps. The couple had one daughter, Rosalind,before their divorce in 1928.
In a writing career that spanned more than half a century, Agatha Christie wrote 79 novels and short story collections. She also wrote over a dozen plays including The Mousetrap, which opened in London on November 25th, 1952, and is now the longest continuously running play in theatrical history.
Christie's first novel, The mysterious Affair at Styles (1920), was also the first to feature her eccentric Belgian detective Hercule Poirot. Surely one of the most famous fictional creations of all times , Poirot's 'little grey cells' triumphed over devious criminals in 33 novels and many dozens of short stories. Christie's last published novel, Sleeping Murder (1976), featured her other world-famous sleuth, the shrewdly inquisitive Miss Jane Marple of St. Mary Mead. Miss Marple appeared in twelve novels, beginning with The Murder at the Vicarage in 1930.
Both Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple have been widely dramatized in feature films and made-for-TV movies. Murder on the Orient Express (1974), Witness for the Prosecution (1957), And Then There Were None (1945), and Death on the Nile (1978) are a few of the successful films based on her works.
Agatha Christie also wrote six romantic novels under the pseudonym Mary Westmacott. She wrote notification as well - Four books including an autobiography and an entertaining account of the many archeological expeditions she shared with her second husband, Sir Max Mallowan. In 1971, she achieved her country's highest honor when she received the Order of Dame Commander of the British Empire. Agatha Christie died on January 12th, 1976.
