barrage A barrage is something that comes quickly and heavily â as an attack of bullets or artillery, or a fast spray of words. Sometimes in movies or news footage, the audience gets a glimpse from behind a mounted weapon and sees a heavy rain of bombs or bullets â called a barrage â going toward a target, sending as much POW! as possible to hit a wide area.
What is your appendix? Your appendix is a small tube about the same size as your little finger. It is attached to the beginning of your large intestine (the caecum - say: see-kem), near where the small and large intestines meet. One end opens into the large intestine but the other end is closed. It has a lining which passes fluid from the blood vessels into the middle of the appendix.
Cecum is the pouch located at the beginning of the large intestine and not at the end, as opposed to the common belief. Large intestine ends at the anus. The location of appendix in human body can also be said to be at two-third distance from your naval to anterior superior iliac spine.
