Anytime you include pictures, photos, and other illustrations in documents, it helps the writer show great amounts of complicated data in a way that is easy-to-understand. Using these images helps save space and the graphic elements work to visualize how complex information can be put to together in an appealing way.
In this booklet, written by the Environmental Services department of the City of Portland, there are a lot of illustrations designed to help observe the site, plan, and construct your rain barrel. The pictures in the "Construction" section specifically help you to know about:
- the seven tools needed to build your own rain barrel
- the five tools required to disconnect your downspout and connect it to your barrel
- the six steps to constructing your rain barrel
The end result of these illustrations is that more citizens of Portland (and elsewhere) can properly plan for, and successfuly complete the project of making their own rain barrel. Ultimately, this will have a positive effect on the environment. Specifically, the more rain barrels are being used, sewer demand is reduced and the water quality of streams and groundwater will improve.

Answer:
1. <u>Who made Tiresias blind?</u>
Tiresias was blind from his youth. He was perhaps the best known soothsayer from Thebes. As already stated, there are different traditions as to why he was blind.
One tradition says that he was blinded by the gods for revealing things to mankind that were for the gods alone. Another tradition states he was blinded by Athena for seeing her bathing naked. His mother prayed to Athena to restore his sight. Athena could not restore his sight, but instead gave him inner sight, or the ability to prophesy.
A final tradition states that Tiresias was walking and saw a male and female snake copulating. He struck at them killing the female serpent. For punishment he was turned into a woman. Seven years later he saw another pair of serpents and killing the male snake he was turned into a male. Having lived the life of both a woman and man, Zeus and Hera came to him in their dispute over who had more pleasure in sex. Tiresias said the woman enjoyed sex more. Outraged, Hera blinded him. Zeus rewarded Tiresias with prophecy and long life.
2. <u>Who felt guilty about it and gave Tiresias the gift of knowing everything?</u>
<u>Athena</u> didn’t give him back his sight. But to make up for the punishment, she gave him the gift of divination. She assured him that he wouldn’t lose it, even in death. Tiresias’ transsexuality. The second of the best-known versions of Tiresias’ origin says that he was walking in the fields one day when he saw two snakes mating.
Zeus, feeling sorry that Tiresias was blinded, gave him the gift of prophecy.
Zeus gave Tiresias the gift of second sight. Not surprisingly, from then on Tiresias lived the live of a reclusive ascetic - emerging only when there was a crisis in Thebes that needed his gifts.
