What flower is popular in corsages?

A very traditional corsage would have a couple spray roses, some greens and babies breath. I have also used calla liles, gerbera daisies, orchids, carnations and too many others to list.

Why do flowers have fragrance?

Flowers are the (sexual) reproductive organs of the plant, housing the male and female reproductive organs of the plant. Sometimes both male and female parts are house in the same flower, in other instances there are seperate male and female flowers on the same plant, and in other instances seprate male and female plants.

The purpose of the flower is to attract polinators (insects, bats, animals etc.) to effect pollination - that is the movement of male pollen grains to the female sigma. Here the pollen grains germinate and eventually fuse with a female ovule which then develops into an embryo. The embryo then develops into a seed (above process is simplified!).

Who is the world's most popular chess player?

The world's most popular chess player in the world was Bobby Fischer. Nowadays Garry Kasparov is very popular as well.

EDIT: All true. However, Kasparov no longer plays competitive chess so his popularity, as far as a chess player, has waned, and Fischer is, well, dead.

Currently the most popular Grandmasters are Vaselin Topalov, Vishy Anand, and Magnus Carlsen, and, if you are from the USA, Hikaru Nakamura.

Currently, Vishy Anand is the reigning World Chess Champion recognized by FIDE. He won the undisputed title in 2008 against Vladimir Kramnik. This match was necessary as Anand was crowned the champion via being the victor in a Championship Tournament, not as a result of Match Play. The result against Kramnik put that 'dispute' to rest.

Vaselin Topalov defeated Gata Kamsky to win the right to challenge Anand in the next championship match, which has yet to be scheduled in its finality.

How do you safely transport floral arrangements in a car?

For a tall vase arrangement it is best to use a low bucket. while the arrangement might "slop" around, the vase won't tip or the flowers crush when belted in.

For a shorter container arrangement, I have found it best to use a large shallow box. Put the container in and pad it with newspaper wadded. This prevents the container from shifting, the flowers will stay intact and the box can hold two or more arrangements. This mode of transportation also works well with the tall vase, given that the newspaper will hold the vase securely in the box. Seat belts optional. If transporting more than one box, make sure that they are secure within the car and won't tip over.
