It is really a new world, a new set of vocabulary, and new set of meanings, etc., working for the federal government. I hope that, if I am offered this position after my 'panel interview', I will find an opening or a supervisor will recommend me to a permanent position with the government.
Buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum), also known as common buckwheat, Japanese buckwheat and silverhull buckwheat,[2] is a plant cultivated for its grain-like seeds and as a cover crop.
This word is in origin an abbreviation of soba-mugi (buckwheat). The word soba refers to the edge in ancient Japanese, and soba-mugi meant edgy wheat. Around the 16th century, buckwheat began to be processed into thin noodles. This method was originally known as soba-kiri (lit. soba cutting) but it was later abbreviated into soba.
