Stanza Definition. In poetry, a stanza is a division of four or more lines having a fixed length, meter or rhyming scheme. Stanzas in poetry are similar to paragraphs in prose. Both stanzas and paragraphs include connected thoughts and are set off by a space. The number of lines varies in different kinds of stanzas but it is uncommon for a stanza to have more than twelve lines.
Sharks and remora fish work together. A not so picky eater the remora fish attaches itself the the shark. These fish also attach to whales, tuna, sea turtles and many other large sea animals. The remora fish attaches to the belly of the shark by a sucker disc in it's mouth. It travels everywhere the shark goes. It eats any parasites on the shark which helps keep the shark clean. It also eats any leftover food from the shark. The remora (sucker fish) gets to eat and the shark stays clean and healthy.
In personam is distinguished from in rem, which applies to property or all the world instead of a specific person. This technical distinction is important to determine where to file a lawsuit and how to serve a defendant. In personam means that a judgment can be enforceable against the person wherever he/she is. On the other hand, if the lawsuit is to determine title to property (in rem) then the action must be filed where the property exists and is only enforceable there. See also: in rem jurisdiction.
