Around 6 million people flock to the Oktoberfest in Munich every year. For three weeks, people party, eat & drink on the Theresienwiese in the Bavarian capital. I enjoy the party too, as photographer & as drinking guest now & again.
Colour Gallery
Although I say it every year that I can't be bothered with lugging my gear around the Oktoberfest site I do. Why? Well, it is naturally an annual event that you just can't & shouldn't miss living in the Munich area. Pretty girls in figure hugging Dirndl are to be seen daily in the underground & almost everywhere else in the town. A week or so before the opening ceremony where the Mayor of Munich hammers the first tap into a beer barrel shouting "O' zapft is" literally meaning that the first barrel has been tapped one notices how many more people are present in and around Munich. The hotels & hostels are all full & the average price for a room has at least doubled or even tripled.
The layout of the "Wiesn" (Meadow) as the locals call it changes from year to year making the visit each time interesting especially from a photographic point of view. It is always a challenge to get good results due to the sheer mass of people under way. On average around 6 million visitors make the pilgrimage to this beer Mecca on the edge of the Bavarian Alps. The numbers of visitors was less in comparison to last year, around 400,000 less probably due to the higher beer price of 10,20 € for a Mass on average (1 liter glass krug).
Saturday October 3rd was a public holiday celebrating 25 years of German unity & the fall of the Berlin wall between East & West Germany making a visit to the Wiesn for many Germans obligatory. Add to this a perfect warm, sunny Autumn day & you can imagine how crowded it was. I'm glad that I went during the week when it's a lot less busy.
"O'zapft is'!"
– Though you probably won't need to say this yourself, this is a very important phrase at Oktoberfest if only because no beer can be drunk before it is announced! It falls upon the Mayor of Munich to open Oktoberfest by tapping a beer keg and shouting "O'ZAPFT IS'!", thus officially starting the festivities. It literally means "It's tapped!"
"Oans, zwoa, drei, g'suffa!"
– The Bavarian drinking cry basically translates as "one, two, three, drink!"
"Semml" and "Brez'n"
– bread rolls are such an important part of German life that they have a different name depending on where in the country you are! "Semml" or "Semme" is the word that is used in Bavaria – but you are more likely to come across "Brez'n", or pretzels, at the Oktoberfest."
"Die Maß"
– the Bavarian word that refers to a one-litre glass mug of beer. Make sure you order a Maß if you want to drink like a true Bavarian – ordering a normal beer just won't cut it at Oktoberfest! A Maß is always made of clear glass at Oktoberfest, so you can be sure you are getting your money's worth. It is also important to refer to the actual beer itself as Oktoberfestbier. Only 6 breweries, all within Munich's city walls, are allowed to serve at Oktoberfest, so they are very firm that it is no ordinary beer!
"Buam & Madln"
– the Bavarian words for boys (Buam) & girls (Madln) will come in particularly useful when you are trying to work out which is the right toilet after a few beers at the Wies'n.
"Die Bierleichen"
– while not technically a Bavarian word as it can be used in high German as well, this is the affectionate name given to those who have overdone it on the Oktoberfestbier by locals. It literally translates to "beer corpses". Or, to use a more Bavarian phrase, they are simply "Ogschdocha", or drunk.
"Pfiat di!"
– make sure you sign off with this classic Bavarian goodbye. It's a shortened version of "May God protect you", which you will surely be hoping for after one too many glugs from the Maß…
Did You Know?
Contrary to popular belief, Oktoberfest or "Wiesn", to the locals is not a beer festival, but the anniversary celebration of the wedding between Bavarian Crown Prince Ludwig & his wife, Princess Therese of Saxony-Hildburghausen. When they got married in 1810, the royals commemorated the event with a public party where not a single drop of the amber nectar was spilled! It wasn't until 1819 that the horse races were replaced by beer vendors. Despite their initial prudence, you'll still find doting monarchists today raising krug in honour of the old lord & lady who made it all possible.

Staubitz market
Established in 1917 by John Staubitz, and now operated by John McFadden and his son, John McFadden Jr., Staubitz Market is the oldest butcher still operating in New York. It has been in the McFadden family for over 50 years.
Throughout the years it has maintained the old fashioned warmth of sawdust-strewn floors, ornamented tin ceiling, beautiful antique cashiers booth and many other original features from the turn of the century.
brand positioning strategy, concept, design
Staubitz asked Level to update their logo to reflect the 100 year milestone of the business. We not only updated the logo but also created a commemorative badge for use on the website and other collateral such as bags t-shirts, hats and postcards
We are proud of our relationship with Staubitz which has spanned over 10 years and congratulate them on their centennial achievement.
visit site: staubitz.com
strategy, content, information architecture, concept, design, front-end development
Level established a web presence for Staubitz that allows its clientele to learn not only about the shop and its history but also to learn about various cuts of meats, cheeses and other pantry items.
In addition, the site allows users to navigate to its online market place located on Mercato, where customers can order a wide selection of cuts from the physical shop.
strategy, concept, design, production management
Staubitz Market collateral includes custom embroidered baseball caps, silkscreened tote bags, special order cards, and takeaway post cards.
strategy, concept, design, print management
From signs to dispaly tags as well as outdoor signage, Level has created a system for Staubitz to use in any number of applications.
Templates were created so that any daily changes could be done in house and printed on location.

The Bouncer Who
Bought the Cavern
Hard Nights: My Life In Liverpool Clubland
Roy Adams, Cavernman Publications
Roy Adams is a former guardsman and amateur wrestler who became a bouncer in Liverpool clubs such as the Basement for eight years before owning his own clubs, including the Cavern itself.
A 'bouncer' is a club doorman and you had to be tough to take the job on. As Roy recalled in one incident, "I stooped down to fasten my shoelace hearing a thud as I started to bend forward. I looked behind me and there was a large triangle of glass with the point buried in the door just where my head had been.
"As I realized it another shard of glass just missed my face. Next thing pieces of glass were flying at us.
"Two of the crowd we'd knocked back had dragged a large cardboard box full of broken panes of glass from a rubbish skip down the street. They'd hidden behind a parked car. We managed to scramble inside but not before I'd been caught in the leg and my colleague had a gash in his hand.
"This was my first experience of the Liverpool determination for revenge when they feel rebuffed."
Roy's experiences of working during Liverpool's nightlife in clubs, ballrooms, nightclubs and restaurants for 42 years before his retirement in the year 2000 is contained in his self-published autobiography, 'Hard Nights.'
I particularly remember a tough nut called Eddie Palmer. The first time I met him he made some sort of insulting remark and I told him where to get off. He seemed to like that and apparently looked on me as if I was a friend. I never had any trouble from him, but I remember other people were terrified. I often wondered what had happened to him and I found out in Roy's book.
He related that a doorman called Beech Doherty had a nasty run-in with some Scots who threatened revenge. He was then deliberately run down by a car and his legs were so seriously injured it was thought he would never walk again. He eventually recovered and regained the use of his legs, although he walked with difficulty.
Doherty was told that Palmer had been paid to drive the car. When Beech was with his wife and daughter at the Peel Labour Club one night, Palmer came to the table and made some insulting remarks about Beech's wife and daughter. Beech followed him out of the club and stabbed him in the chest, killing him.

While most can agree that STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) experiences outside of school can be exciting and engaging for young people, there is much that isn't known about its impact on short-term and long-term learning. How can it best be connected to what students are learning in school? How can young people have equitable opportunities to access quality informal science education? How do you measure this kind of learning?

Hello, so I'm planning to start an import/Export Business soon. I have looked up everything, the papers you need, if the market is good, etc. and everything is fine. First, I want to start by exporting goods to another country. I know you have to calculate the prices, but how to I calculate my own profit margin?
| 👁 983 | Posted November 24, 2018 | Share on Facebook | Twitter | Google+| Modified: November 24, 2018 | Author: SetupBusinessinUAE
Sale price 3500 - cost of goods sold 2000 =1500 gross profit Gross profit 1500 divides by selling price 3500 =42.8% gpm
It sounds like your real question is "How much should I charge?" You should charge what the market will bear. Profit margin is a very simple calculation, Price - Cost.
Okay, so my problem now is to calculate the revenue. I have to add all expenses to my product, but at the end, I want to profit from it. How do I calculate the profit itself? Especially if it's a B2B product, I don't know the price of the competitors.
Take your total revenue (money paid for your product/service) and subtract your total expense (how much it cost you to make/sell/deliver your product or service) If this is a negative number you are not making money (profit) and will go out of business.

PHT Latest news
Palestine 4000 years of history
PALEXPO Olympia London 6-7 July 2019
All the current original, stitched Palestinian History Tapestry panels were displayed publicly for the first time at PALEXPO 2019, a celebration of Palestinian culture at Olympia on 6 & 7 July 2019, which was attended by over 10,000 visitors. Several thousand people of all ages visited the Tapestry, which covered both sides of 100 metres of free-standing display boards.
We were told by Friends of al Aqsa (https://www.foa.org.uk/) – the organisers of PALEXPO 2019 – that there was a buzz of excitement about the Tapestry among visitors.
Many visitors took pictures, and some filmed the Tapestry. One of the first visitors was Swee Ang, the trauma surgeon who has worked tirelessly in Gaza. Although she was amazed by the Tapestry, she was not surprised by the quality of the beautiful stitching, for which Palestinian embroiderers are well-known.
All the visitors with whom we spoke were complimentary about the Tapestry, and many of the Palestinian visitors were visibly moved by it and expressed gratitude to the designers, stitchers and other contributors to PHT Project. We distributed business cards with the Project's website and email addresses, and urged those visitors with suggestions for modifying some panel narratives to send their comments to the PHT Project's email.
Mounting, monitoring, and dismantling the Tapestry was hard work for our small PHT team, but we were glad to have taken advantage of Friends of Al Aqsa's invitation to exhibit the Tapestry at PALEXPO 2019. A measure of the success of our contribution is that FOA have asked us to consider being a regular feature at future PALEXPOs.

These are some of the words used to describe the Palestinian History Tapestry by people who attended its Oxford launch at St Anthony's College, and its London launch hosted by Middle East Monitor (MEMO) at the P21 Gallery on 11 December, 70 years to the day on which the United Nations General Assembly declared in Resolution 194 the right of Palestinian refugees to return to their homes in what had become Israel.
Sixty of the 80 tapestry panels were also exhibited at Wolfson College Oxford from the end of January to 14 February

|T-Mobile's Online TV box Shown Within an FCC filing
T mobile is still thinking about starting its streaming television service at the conclusion of this calendar year, and now Variety has seen this box at an FCC filing. Dubbed the Tmobile Mini from the file, it may join via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or Ethernet, Together with a USB interface and HDMI in/out.
While Microsoft has abandoned on its middleman HDMI fantasies for its x box One, t mobile provides it with a try using this specific box predicated on technician it acquired combined side Layer3 this past calendar year.
There is no sign of what exactly the service will be like, but there isn't any 5G cell connection onboard. It won't be lonely -- Verizon has established 5G service which is included using YouTube television and also an AppleTV or even Chrome cast, whereas AT&T's box has been scheduled to launch this season.
In an statement directed at Variety,'' t mobile reported that"We are hard at work in our new household television solution, and following launching, we will continue to innovate and enlarge t mobile's entertainment solutions as time passes " We are going to see precisely what that expansion resembles, also when anybody is hoping to add up an HDMI pass-through with their home entertainment setup rather than a more straightforward dongle, standalone or app streaming video box. Be confident, Verizon does not have any control within the policy.

. . . why Asian guys can't seem to get white chicks? Of course you have. Now a film student from my alma mater - UCSD - attempts to answer that question.

I can't even bring myself to put this under the "This is cool" category.
Also, barely any mention of the fact that Israel is opening up humanitarian corridors so aid can get through to civilians. Naturally Hezbollah will take advantage of this aid too, which will make Israel's job harder. But Israel opens the humanitarian corridors anyway, because it's the right thing to do.
The predictable condemners | Jerusalem Post
Not to mention the fact that many of these condemners are themselves hypocrites, in the truest sense of the word. Has the UN humanitarian head toured the sites of missile strikes in Israel? Has he visited Israeli hospitals treating civilians injured by Hezbollah attacks? Does he even care?
I'm going to speak out on the latest conflict. Of course I support Israel, as apparently do most world leaders, and half the Arab nations (Egypt, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia all blame Hezbollah for the current crisis). But I think Israel's declared goal of eliminating Hezbollah is bold and even visionary. Sharon would be proud. Here's why.
Finland's entry for Eurovision 2006
Oh yeah, and I'm back from vacation. It was fun--the scenery was gorgeous, there weren't very many mesquitos, the weather was fantastic, and the campsites were some of the best I've ever seen. But it was too strenuous, and they hassled us at the airport trying to get home. I can't talk about that too much because there might be litigation. All I'll say is: I had to fly home a day late, the rest of my family had to fly home two days late, and it was a pain in the ass.
I've nearly finished a major gallery upgrade. The color scheme now matches my front page, and you can now order pictures directly from my web site! This is all in preparation for hosting the photos from Matt & Sarah's wedding (almost done, I promise!). I'm going to be on a canoe trip in Canada for the next week, but I'll finish Matt & Sarah's wedding gallery when I get back.
Thumbs up!
It really is that good. I didn't expect much from it. It's a movie based on a ride at a theme park, it's Disney, it's a sequel, and it's been way too overhyped. But when I lower my expectations, I'm usually pleased (usually). In this case, I was impressed!
CSS sheets are hard to edit. Really hard. Inexusably hard. But there's a Web Developer Toolbar that makes that (and a lot of other things) a lot easier. Web Developer Extension, where have you been all my life?
(I know this isn't really a linux app per se, but since I pretty much only use linux now, it may as well go under the linux category. Down with Microsoft! Down with their ugly, demented monkey-child Windows Vista!)
I won my second court case yesterday. Double felony. I was only assigned the case the day before, so I had to scramble, and it was definitely a sloppier job than a senior ADA would do, but I pulled it off. The defense attorney was also one of the best at the YGC; I've now gone up against three of the four defense attorneys with the highest reputations, and I won each time. I'd say more about the case but the file is sealed (of course). Talk to me if you want more details.

Explore how precious gems, metals and energy resources are forged under extraordinary circumstances deep within the Earth, and discover how their unique properties have helped lift humanity from the Stone Age to the stars. Drill down to discover the treasures beneath our feet that power our world. Fossil fuels–coal, oil, and natural gas–powered the industrial revolution and allowed us to build a way of life that many cherish today. Personal cars, planes, lights, hot showers–all of these are gifts from our fossil fuels… but they have a dirty dark side in that they are polluting the planet. What is it about these natural resources that has allowed them to fuel our civilization? What secrets are locked in their molecules? Where did that energy come from, and can we find alternative energy resources that come in a cleaner form? The hunt is on for new treasures that might allow us to power our modern way of life without damaging the environment. Join NOVA as we explore the resources that both power and pollute, from modern-day oil prospecting in California, to a mega-city utility company struggling to keep the lights on during hot summer days, to China where an engineer strives to solve one of the greatest obstacles to the success of solar power. Travel the globe to see how our energy treasures are changing—and if they can keep the lights on.
The towering Himalayas were among the last places on Earth that humanity settled. Scaling sheer cliff sides, a team of daring scientists hunts for clues to how ancient people found their way into this forbidding landscape and adapted to survive the high altitude. They discover rock-cut tombs filled with human bones and enigmatic artifacts, including gold masks and Chinese silk dating back thousands of years, and piece together evidence of strange rituals and beliefs designed to ward off the restless spirits of the dead.
Five years after the earthquake and tsunami that triggered the unprecedented trio of meltdowns at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, scientists and engineers are struggling to control an ongoing crisis. What's next for Fukushima? What's next for Japan? And what's next for a world that seems determined to jettison one of our most important carbon-free sources of energy? Despite the catastrophe—and the ongoing risks associated with nuclear—a new generation of nuclear power seems poised to emerge the ashes of Fukushima. NOVA investigates how the realities of climate change, the inherent limitations of renewable energy sources, and the optimism and enthusiasm of a new generation of nuclear engineers is looking for ways to reinvent nuclear technology, all while the most recent disaster is still being managed. What are the lessons learned from Fukushima? And with all of nuclear's inherent dangers, how might it be possible to build a safe nuclear future?
We live in an age when technological innovation seems to be limitlessly soaring. But for all the satisfying speed with which our gadgets have improved, many of them share a frustrating weakness: the batteries. Though they have improved in last century, batteries remain finicky, bulky, expensive, toxic, and maddeningly short-lived. The quest is on for a "super battery," and the stakes in this hunt are much higher than the phone in your pocket. With climate change looming, electric cars and renewable energy sources like wind and solar power could hold keys to a greener future...if we can engineer the perfect battery. Join host David Pogue as he explores the hidden world of energy storage, from the power—and danger—of the lithium-ion batteries we use today, to the bold innovations that could one day charge our world.
Weighing 54,000 gross tons and stretching over two football fields, the Seven Seas Explorer is no ordinary boat. Join pioneering shipbuilders in Italy as they endeavor to build the ultimate and most luxurious cruise ship. It will be decked with the finest gold, marble, and crystal and designed to offer guests the roomiest accommodations of any commercial cruise ship. However, engineering opulence is no easy feat. NOVA follows a pioneering team of shipbuilders as they embark on what is advertised to be a milestone in maritime engineering.
The centuries-old tradition of folding two-dimensional paper into three-dimensional shapes is inspiring a scientific revolution. The rules of folding are at the heart of many natural phenomena, from how leaves blossom to how beetles fly. But now, engineers and designers are applying its principles to reshape the world around us—and even within us, designing new drugs, micro-robots, and future space missions. With this burgeoning field of origami-inspired-design, the question is: can the mathematics of origami be boiled down to one elegant algorithm—a fail-proof guidebook to make any object out of a flat surface, just by folding? And if so, what would that mean for the future of design? Explore the high-tech future of this age-old art as NOVA unfolds "The Origami Revolution."
From derailments to head-on collisions to drivers killed at road crossings, deadly train accidents claim dozens of lives each year. But just how unsafe are the railroads? NOVA investigates recent rail tragedies and advances in train tech that could help prevent them, taking a special look at Japan's superefficient bullet trains, which have a perfect safety record. What would it take to usher in a new golden age of safer, faster, more modern and reliable train travel?
For centuries, the Lithuanian city of Vilna was one of the most important Jewish centers in the world, earning the title "Jerusalem of the North" until World War II, when the Nazis murdered about 95% of its Jewish population and reduced its synagogues and cultural institutions to ruins. The Soviets finished the job, paving over the remnants of Vilna's famous Great Synagogue so thoroughly that few today know it ever existed. Now, an international team of archaeologists is trying to rediscover this forgotten world, excavating the remains of its Great Synagogue and searching for proof of one of Vilna's greatest secrets: a lost escape tunnel dug by Jewish prisoners inside a horrific Nazi execution site. Archaeologists discover the tunnel near Vilnius, Lithuania, which served as an escape route for Jews fleeing the Nazis during World War II.
In 1986, in the heart of Ukraine, the Chernobyl nuclear reactor exploded, releasing 400 times more radiation than the Hiroshima Bomb. It was the world's worst nuclear disaster. Thirty workers died, 50,000 people fled the nearest city, and radioactive fallout made an area larger than Long Island a no-go zone. Hastily, a so-called "sarcophagus" was built to contain the radioactive materials that lingered at the site after the explosion. But 30 years later, the sarcophagus is crumbling, and another disaster at Chernobyl looms. Now, an international team of engineers is racing the clock to assemble one of the most ambitious superstructures ever built—an extraordinary 40,000 ton, $1.5 billion dome to encase the crumbling remains of the Chernobyl nuclear reactor. Battling arctic winter weather—and lethal radiation—this is the inside story of the epic race to build Chernobyl's MegaTomb.
For over a thousand years, chariots thundered across China's battlefields, dominating warfare far longer than anywhere else on Earth. Now a series of amazing archaeological discoveries, including whole chariots buried with their horses, enable a team of experts to probe the genius of China's first super-weapon. By recreating a battle chariot, they investigate the design secrets which made them such a long-lived war machine, all while discovering how they were used, what set them apart from the rest of the world, and their role in the unification of China.
Water. Turn on the faucet and it's always there. Without it we perish. But how safe is our tap water? In this special report narrated by Joe Morton, NOVA investigates what happened in Flint, Michigan, when local officials changed the city's water source to save money, but overlooked a critical treatment process. As the water pipes corroded, lead leached into the system, exposing the community—including thousands of children—to dangerous levels of poison. NOVA uncovers the science behind this manmade disaster— from the intricacies of water chemistry to the biology of lead poisoning to the misuse of science itself. NOVA follows ordinary citizens and independent scientists who exposed the danger lurking in Flint's water and confronted those who turned a blind eye. And discover the disturbing truth that reaches far beyond Flint—water systems across the country are similarly vulnerable. How can we protect ourselves from poisoned water?
On August 21, 2017, millions of Americans witnessed the first total solar eclipse to cross the continental United States in 99 years. As in all total solar eclipses, the moon blocked the sun and revealed its ethereal outer atmosphere—its corona—in a wondrous celestial spectacle. While hordes of citizens flocked to the eclipse's path of totality, scientists, too, staked out spots for a very different reason: to investigate the secrets of the sun's elusive atmosphere. During the eclipse's precious seconds of darkness, they gathered new clues on how our sun works, how it can produce deadly solar storms, and why its atmosphere is so hot. NOVA investigates the storied history of solar eclipse science and joins both seasoned and citizen-scientists alike as they don their eclipse glasses, tune their telescopes, and revel in the eclipse that spanned the continent.
Almost everything we know today about the beautiful giant ringed planet comes from Cassini, the NASA mission that launched in 1997 and arrived at Saturn in 2004. Since then, the spacecraft has been beaming home miraculous images and scientific data, revealing countless wonders about the planet, its rings, and 62 moons—including some that could harbor life. As the mission approaches its final days in 2017, it attempts one last set of daring maneuvers—diving between the innermost ring and the top of Saturn's atmosphere. Aiming to skim less than 2,000 miles above the cloud tops, no spacecraft has ever gone so close to Saturn and hopes are high for incredible observations that could solve major mysteries about the planet's core. But such a daring maneuver comes with many risks. Join NASA engineers for the tense and triumphant moments as they find out if their gambit has paid off, and discover the wonders that Cassini has revealed over the years. Watch Cassini's final hours as it dives into Saturn's atmosphere ending its mission.
A knight in shining armor may sound like a character out of a storybook, but once upon a time, knighthood was serious business, and for countless medieval fighters, their armor was what stood between life and death. But what was it really like to live beneath the metal? How was that shining armor crafted and how strong was it? Could it withstand impacts from the most lethal weapons of the day, including crossbows, muskets, and primitive hand guns? NOVA challenged blacksmith Ric Furrer and master armorer Jeff Wasson to recreate parts of an elite Greenwich armor originally manufactured in the Royal Workshop founded by King Henry VIII. We trace their successes and setbacks from start to finish as they rediscover centuries-old metalworking secrets, then put their new armor to the ultimate test against a period musket!
Stonehenge is the grandest and most enigmatic of Europe's prehistoric monuments, and it has inspired countless theories to explain who built it and why. Was it an ancient cathedral or burial place or even a Stone Age observatory or computer? Over the last decade, fresh answers have come from an ambitious program of research, including the first scientific study of human remains—thousands of fragments of cremated men, women, and children—buried at the site 5,000 years ago. In this Stone Age detective story, archaeologists analyze the bones and piece together tantalizing details of the elite families who presided over Stonehenge. Remnants of huge feasts that fed the laborers at the site have come to light, including evidence that they traveled from the far corners of the British Isles to raise the stones and celebrate the winter solstice. Yet Stonehenge's place as a centerpiece of ancient culture was not to last. Join NOVA as we reveal intimate details of the Stonehenge people and why their power began to fade soon after they raised the mighty stones.
Discover the ingenious engineering of Beijing's Forbidden City, the power center of imperial China for nearly 500 years. Discover how the architectural design of this vast complex of palaces and temples enabled it to survive centuries of earthquake shocks. The Forbidden City is the world's biggest and most extravagant palace complex ever built. For five centuries, it was the power center of imperial China and survived wars, revolution, fires, and earthquakes. How did the Ming Emperor's workforce construct its sprawling array of nearly 1,000 buildings and dozens of temples in a little over a decade? How were stupendous 250-ton marble blocks moved across many miles to reach the site? And how did fantastically intricate woodwork, all fastened without nails or glue, enable the palaces to survive hundreds of earthquakes, including recent ones that obliterated nearby modern structures? To find answers, NOVA joins a team of master craftsmen who build a scale model of a typical palace in a seismic lab, then subject it to simulated earthquakes to shake out the secrets of how the Forbidden City has withstood centuries of violent tremors.

Follow a team of volcano sleuths as they embark on a worldwide hunt for an elusive volcanic mega-eruption that plunged medieval Earth into a deep freeze. The mystery begins when archaeologists find a hastily dug mass grave of 4,000 men, women, and children in London. At first, they assume it's a plague pit from the Black Death, but when they date the bones, they turn out to be too old by a century. So what killed off these families? The chronicles of that time describe a run of wild weather that devastated crops and spread famine across Europe. NOVA's expert team looks for the signature of a volcanic eruption big enough to have blasted a huge cloud of ash and sulfuric acid into the atmosphere, which chilled the entire planet. From Greenland to Antarctica, the team finds telltale "fingerprints" in ice and soil layers until, finally, they narrow down the culprit to a smoldering crater on a remote Indonesian island. Nearly 750 years ago, this volcano's colossal explosion shot a million tons of rock and ash every second into the atmosphere. Across the globe, it turned summer into winter. What would happen if another such cataclysm struck again today?
The Great Hurricane of 1780 took nine days to blast its way across the Caribbean, killing at least 20,000--the highest known death toll of any single weather event in history. What made this superstorm so deadly? To reconstruct its epic scale and investigate what made it so devastating, NOVA joins historians and storm sleuths as they track down clues in eyewitness chronicles, old ruins, and computer simulations. Their evidence points to a truly terrifying, 300-mile-wide storm--with wind speeds probably exceeding 230 miles an hour and 25-feet storm surges that demolished everything in their path. But just how unusual was the Great Hurricane? Diving into sinkholes off Barbados and squirming into caves in the Yucatan, NOVA's experts recover traces of tempests stretching back over more than 1,000 years. The picture they paint is disturbing: mega-hurricanes were not only more frequent in the past but are likely to strike again in our near future, as climate change warms the oceans and fuels more intense hurricanes. Were the deaths and damage inflicted by storms like Hurricane Sandy a prelude to far more devastating disasters?
All over the world, scientists are discovering traces of ancient floods on a scale that dwarfs even the most severe flood disasters of recent times. What triggered these cataclysmic floods, and could they strike again? Over a vast expanse of Washington State called the Channeled Scablands, the level prairie gives way to bizarre, gargantuan rock formations: house-sized boulders seemingly dropped from the sky; a cliff carved by a waterfall twice the height of Niagara; and potholes resembling ones scoured out by rivers today, but ten times bigger. Like forensic detectives at a crime scene, geologists study these strange features and reconstruct catastrophic Ice Age floods more powerful than all the world's top ten rivers combined. NOVA follows their efforts to uncover the geologic fingerprints of other colossal megafloods in Iceland and—improbably—on the seabed of the English Channel, where hundreds of thousands of years ago, another deluge smashed through a land bridge connecting Britain and France and turned Britain into an island for the first time. These great disasters ripped through terrain and transformed continents in a matter of hours—and similar forces reawakened by climate change are posing an active threat to mountain communities throughout the world today.
From lobster claws and dog teeth to bee stings and snake fangs, every creature depends on a weapon. But some are armed to extremes that make no practical sense—whether it's bull elks with giant 40-pound antler racks or tiny rhinoceros beetles with horns bigger than their body. What explains giant tusks, horns, and claws that can slow an animal down and even impair health and nutrition? NOVA investigates the riddle of outsize weaponry and uncovers a bold new theory about what triggers an animal arms race. In creatures as varied as dung beetles and saber-toothed tigers or shrimp and elephants, the same hidden factors trigger the race and, once started, these arms races unfold in exactly the same pattern. Join scientists as they crack the secret biological code that underlies nature's battleground.
Join NOVA to witness the brainpower of birds. Long mocked as empty-headed, our feathered friends hide surprisingly acute intelligence. But how smart are they? Watch as scientists test avian aptitude and challenge our basic notions of intelligence.
Call somebody a "bird brain," and you're not delivering them a compliment. But as NOVA shows, birds turn out to have advanced problem-solving skills that we usually assume are unique to humans. Watch astonishing tests of avian aptitude: parrots that can plan for the future, jackdaws that can "read" human faces, and crows that can solve multi-step puzzles with tools like pebbles, sticks, and hooks. Could these just be clever tricks based on instinct or triggered by subtle cues from their human handlers? To rule out any doubts, NOVA puts feathered Einsteins through their paces and reveals skills that even three- or four-year-old children have a hard time mastering—such as putting off one reward now to get a bigger one later. From this revolution in thinking about our feathered friends, the conclusion seems irresistible that bird brains see the world in ways that aren't so different from our own.
A seven-mile-wide asteroid collided with Earth 66 million years ago, triggering a chain of events that coincide with the end of the dinosaurs. But experts have long debated exactly what happened when the asteroid struck and how the giant beasts met their end. Now, scientists have uncovered compelling new clues about the catastrophe—from New Jersey to the wilds of Patagonia—and an international expedition of scientists has drilled into the impact crater off the coast of Mexico, recovering crucial direct evidence of the searing energy and giant tsunami unleashed by the asteroid. Join NOVA as scientists piece together a chillingly precise unfolding of the Earth's biggest cataclysm, moment by moment, and discover how our early mammalian ancestors managed to survive and repopulate the Earth.

When the class police start to threaten you with Snob Court
Show them all up by presenting some genuine Port
I won't give a moment's thought to the concept of "fashion" or "class" in any way, shape or form. I'm sure this comes as a great shock to you all, but I can't be bothered in the least about my clothing or the "presentation" of my home; I just don't give a damn. Now, mind you, I take pains to make sure that I'm not dressed like a complete slob; I may be a Dumb (mostly) White Husband, but I'm not completely oblivious. I know the missus would not tolerate me gallivanting about town in chili and sauerkraut begrimed rags. I genuinely give a couple minutes of deep thought to properly presenting myself for anniversaries, spouse birthdays, the Holidays, etc… By and large, the wife is happy (or at least not UNHAPPY, which is the most a DWH can ask for in most spousal relations) with the way I look. However, sometimes she gets some crazy X-chromosome dominate notion of making me look fashionable. (I long ago conceded her desire to be fashionable and know better than to question that; us Gallic's have an innate instinct for self-preservation). This leads to awkward scenes of me taking psychic leave during what my wife keeping mistakenly identifying as "conversations" about me looking like a professional-class adult when in fact they're monologues about me dressing like its 1995. I concede some points such as throwing out my 1995 pseudo-hiking/work boots that had at least another 15 years in them, but I draw the line at forking over the green for some new trendy jeans or metro-sexual shoes that will probably be "out" of fashion within the year despite costing more than the rest of my day-to-day wardrobe combined. And further, why should it matter if an UNDERSHIRT has a hole or four in it?!!?! It's hidden the entire time I'm in public! And I damn well am going to wear in the open at home as I should be allowed to dress as I like in my castle.
My skeleton in the closet is that for a short spell I honestly cared about such sheit. After I got married and had kido number one on the way, the practical Scottish side of my personality dominated my freer artistic Irish side and demanded that I engage in a lucrative trade. So I rang up my close friend Cyrus "Mammon" Hatami who worked as a stock broker at a prosperous brokerage firm in an all-too-trendy American city. Years of tending me dad's books back his Belfast bar gave me a good feel of numbers; Cyrus experienced this first hand during our summer as small-time bookies on the Jersey Shore during the summer of '01. (Christ, those goombahs out there are dumber than a syphilitic mule on a three-day drunk). We made enough bank to have a real good summer blow out in Vegas over Labor Day weekend that year. We're not allowed back in the Wynn ever again, and I don't even have the faintest inkling of a clue why.
Anyway, Cyrus had situated himself with a good fairly reputable firm which most steered clear of the slimy Wolf of Wall Street/Boiler Room milieu. He was all too happy to bring me on board and give him an ally in his world which was dominated by his new old world bride and her legions of meddling in laws. I managed to wrangle up some nice trendy threads and leather pats and got to it as a corporate capitalist bastard. By and large, it was decent work. The thrill of a sale is nice though cheap. The funds were even nicer and soon I had more bank then I'd ever had in my life. I was living high, and the wife has actually close to getting happy with my career status.
But then, for the first and only time in my life, I started looking at what those around me had. Without my wife nudging in the least, I made what had always been and would soon be again the unforgiveable sin of ASKING HER OPINION OF MY CLOTHES. Now, I love my wife and value her opinion in almost everything, but my threads (absent the aforementioned special occasions) is one area I don't truck with any person's opinion. In my epistemology, it's a cardinal virtue to NEVER ask for anyone's opinion about what I wear. I'm the one who's wearing it and if I like it, that's all there is to it. However, the money and filthy lucre environment worked like an opiate on my weakened mind. I actually started to PAY ATTENTION to what my fellow males were wearing. Cyrus had always been suspiciously well-dressed and now that he was in the serious money, he started to dress in what even he later admitted was an extremely extravagant manner. I followed blindly in pursuit and before long the Gucci suits and silk ties and diamond studs abounded, and I actually started WORRYING ABOUT HOW I MEASURED UP. (Excuse me, I need a drink; I'm cringing at the memory of my deluded-broker self ….)
(Ok, I'm back. Thank you for your patience). I'm too embarrassed about it to go into too much detail. Suffice to say that there were too many trips to the country club and too may dangerous flirtations with purchasing a beamer. Everything came to a head when the spouse and I threw a dinner party for Cyrus and his wife and three cookie-cutter firm members and their bleached, plastic spouse accessories. I fretted over the party for weeks (a shameful, shameful first). I carefully selected a menu with the proper trendy foods, had a DISCUSSION ABOUT FLOWERS with the missus and went so far as to hire a chef… (Excuse me, I need some Granddad to keep my heads from splitting; back in a few…)
(Christ, I feel like I'm confessing to some heinous crime when… damn, that's exactly what I'm doing). Everything came to a head when I went to the sanctum sanatorium, my usual safe haven, the liquor store. Now I have no problem with any of the libations I bought for the party; my soul was not completely gone (though why the hell anyone pays so much for Grey Goose when Russian Standard is better and ½ the price still sickens me). However, when it came to getting the after-dinner digestives I ran into a problem. Even with wine, my instincts are good. However, I freely admit that somehow I had made it almost 36 years without knowing anything about port. (The Emerald Isle is not known for its port.) I knew what was considered "good" so I forked over a day and a half's worth of a fast food worker's gross pay for 750 ml of wine mixed with pseudo brandy. I was about to leave the store with my trendy bottles when I spied another bottle of port hidden away in the back of the section. Whiskers Blake, the bottle proclaimed, with a picture of the aged presumable Blake with a righteous gray beard on it, straight from the Australian Outback to the States. The dichotomy between this and all of classic snobby bottles was too much for even my yuppie infected brain to resist. Anyway, it was only 1/4th the price of the "great" port I had just bought so if it was ½ as good it would definitely be worth it.
The party got underway fashionably late. The drinks were good and strong and food was tasty but not filling. Everything was just as I wanted it, but it soon became painfully clear that it was all hollow and pointless. The conversation revolved almost entirely around buying new, trendy crap and how the firm members who weren't there were either assholes or losers. The three cookie-cutter alternated going to the bathroom every 15 minutes to keep their narcissism ranging at 11, and their wives' had so much Botox and Quaaludes in them that it was like talking to a robot Real Doll only with less personality. Even my buddy Cyrus, who once had one of best grifter's charms and hangman's humor, had devolved into some weak caricature of a young-gun shark in training with a snake's smirk on his lips and dead fish eyes. I started to feel sick. What had I become? I felt worse and worse as dinner progressed; of course, I drank plenty, but all the expensive booze in my too-pricey crystal in my too large bubble of a house made me number and number. I finally snapped when it came time for the after dinner drinks. I pulled out the proper miniscule port glasses and poured the proper tiny 2 oz. serving from the far too pricey bottle of proper Portuguese Porto. As I poured them, I stared at the bottle of Australian Whiskers Blake with the wise countenance of Whiskers gazing resolutely at me. How did Whiskers drink his port? It sure as shit wasn't from these weak ass, puny glasses. In fact, Whiskers probably didn't even have a wine glasses. I bet he just used his filled his whiskey glass up when he wanted a change of pace. I did likewise, filling my whiskey laced tumbler up with the proper 6 and ¼ oz. wine pour. I brought the proper port glasses and my port filled tumbler to the table. Those guests who weren't too gacked out on whatever to notice this looked at me quizzically.
I ignored them all and tasted deeply of my Whiskers. It was full and rich with that nice extra fortified warm that only proper Port could get you. Forget Portugal, who needs that when the Aussie's can do it just as well, nay, BETTER for a fraction of the cost. I was in heaven and with each drink felt my old, real self returning. I stopped caring about my stupid clothes and passé car, my lack of a country club membership and trendy zip code. I can distinctly remember my suddenly realizing that my desire to play polo had suddenly and irrevocably disappeared. I was me again, Liam Seamus McGillicuty, drinker, street raconteur, wearer of old, unfashionable clothes, driver of unfashionable cars, disdainer of country clubs and aficionado of bowling alleys. I was saved.
I buy Whiskers all the time now and always drink it like I drink wine; anything that good shouldn't be parsed out so parsimoniously. Life is too short to follow the idiotic straight jacket of etiquette and accept tiny portions of that which is good. I accept who I am and don't care what anyone else does, wears, says or thinks. I'm going to drink my cheap Australian port like a wine and let all the indebted poseurs in their hollow lives sip down their overpriced grape juice in their 1/3rd portion. They'll look down at me with my uncouth ways, but since I don't even look at them, they may as well not exist. In truth, they don't. Cha d'fhuair sùil ghionach riamh cunnradh math.

Some research studies that have been conducted on rice hybrids and varieties have indicated the possibility of decreasing plant density using different distances between rows Souza et al. This is an important way to reduce the amount of seed sown per area compared with the current recommendations. In addition, the use of this technology can reduce production costs, making this method more attractive and consequently, the most widely used in commercial irrigated rice crops.
Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the performance and plasticity in the yield and grain quality of three rice hybrids using different row spacing. Three hybrids were used: Three sowing arrangements that corresponded to cm, cm and cm skip-row i.
The arrangements of these plants did not change the density of seeds within a row, which was equivalent to a sowing density of 40 kg ha The experiments were conducted at three different sites.
The same fertilizer, doses and timing of nitrogen application, and chemical treatment for controlling pests and diseases was used in the management of the experiments at all locations. After tillage, prior to the desiccation of the vegetation before rice was planted, glyphosate was applied 1, g ha At the S3 stage needle pointa second application of glyphosate 1, g ha-1 was performed, and irrigation occurred soon after herbicide application.
Fertilization was performed based on the interpretation of the soil analysis; kg ha-1 of granular fertilizer was applied at planting using a furrow seeder.
Grain yield and water use efficiency in irrigated rice according to sowing date
In addition, two applications of nitrogen were conducted; the first application occurred 15 days after emergence at the V3 stage three-leaf rice and the second after the differentiation of floral primordia. The productivity, grain yield and commercial quality of the grains were analyzed. Sampling was conducted by measuring grain moisture in the field. The evaluations were performed every 2 days at the same time, and the grains used were collected from the edges of the plots using a portable device Platinum brand that measured grain moisture content H model.
A 3-kg grain sample was collected from each plot. From this sample, a g subsample was used for the determination of impurities and a g subsample was used for the determination of moisture using a universal tester Gehara brand. One kilogram of each sample was collected and stored in airtight plastic containers. A sample of g of paddy rice was collected and processed for one minute using a rice mill model MT, Suzuki to determine the percentage of whole grains, broken grains and total milling yield.
After polishing, the grains were weighed and this value was regarded as the total milling yield, which was expressed as a percentage. The percentage of total milling grains was calculated by adding the percentage of whole grains and broken grains. Subsequently, polished grains were placed in a number two "trieur'' and grain separation was processed for thirty seconds. The grains that remained in the ''trieur" were weighed to calculate the yield of whole and broken grains, both expressed as a percentage.
A rice analyzer model was used to determine the percentage of chalk grains, white belly, belly, chalk area of grains, broken grains and whole grains free from defects. This machine is able to analyze rice samples and provide detailed information for each grain individually.
A sample of g of peeled rice was used; the sample was separated into different categories based on the proportion of grain chalkiness. The chalk area of the grains was calculated as the average ratio of the chalkiness area considering the surface of all grains in the sample g.
Whole grains free from defects were the grains that were completely translucent with no chalk. The experiment was a randomized block with a split plot design with three replications. There was a border around the entire experiment, and this was implemented at all three locations. Each subplot was composed of a different numbers of rows depending on the sowing arrangement used. Specifically, 26, 14 and 18 lines that were 10 m long corresponded to theand paired and cm row spacings, respectively.
Grains were harvested from the 17, 8 and 10 central lines of the plots with the and row spacings and and cm paired row spacings, respectively. The 50 cm at the ends of each line were not used for harvesting, resulting in useful plot areas of Results and discussion There were no significant interactions between the cultivars and planting arrangements for any experimental variable. This indicated that the different rice hybrids showed similar performance when the plant distribution was changed in the field.
The other commercial grain quality parameters shown in Table 1 indicate that the percentage of whole grains for the Arize Prime hybrid was higher by four percentage points compared with the other hybrids. These differences between hybrids are derived from intrinsic genetic characteristics because the Arize Prime hybrid normally has a higher percentage of whole grains and a smaller percentage of broken grains compared with the other hybrids this has been observed under various conditions.

Transpiration efficiency of rice Oryza sativa L. Considering that the regression for the dose of 7, kg ha-1 of biochar did not result in equation with significant parameters, the regression for the dose of 10, kg ha-1 indicates that MHG decreases with smaller N doses, but for doses higher than 43 kg ha-1, part of N was retained by biochar, positively impacting grain filling. In this respect, Yoseftabar noted that split application of the nitrogen fertilizer promoted higher grain mass, thereby increasing yields.
However, Barreto et al. According to Kischel et al.El experimento del arroz La energía existe, prueba científica
Nitrogen fertilization in combination with 0 and 10, kg ha-1 of biochar linearly positively affected panicle numbers in upland rice Figure 2 Cwhile the regressions for the other doses were not significant. Linear increase in the number of panicles per area of the same cultivar, BRS Sertaneja, was also observed by Barreto et al.
In contrast, Fabre et al. According to Buzetti et al. In a similar study, Mingotte, Hanashiro and Fornasieri Filho stated that variables related to panicles are determined by the application of nitrogen, e. As panicle number is determined during germination, it can only be increased by the application of nitrogen at the beginning of the growth cycle BUZETTI et al. The highest number of empty grains was observed when no biochar was added, in which case the doses of N has a quadratic impact and NEG reached maximum levels at 61 kg ha-1 of N Figure 2 D.
A dose of 3, kg ha-1 of biochar resulted in lower NEG levels than the dose zero and presented a point of maximum at 67 kg ha-1 of N. However, NEG increased linearly with increasing N doses. The quadratic increase in percentage of sterile spikelets of BRS Sertaneja as a function of the doses of N was also observed by Barreto et al.
The coal-free treatment demonstrates the isolated effect of N, where increased doses cause increase in sterility of spikelets up to a maximum level. This effect is attenuated with a dose of 3, kg ha-1 of biochar, due to partial N retention. However, with higher biochar doses, NEG increased linearly with increased N doses, due to a greater retention of nitrogen which is released slowly, maintaining an excess of N in the soil.
The lower fertility of rice spikelets due to increased N doses is related to the fact that this nutrient provides higher spikelet numbers per panicle. Decrease in spikelet sterility is one of the causes of the increase in yield when the application of N is split. Different results were obtained by Silva et al. The significant effect of N doses on the production of cowpea per pot Table 3 indicates that the dose of 90 kg ha-1 of N was detrimental to the crop.
In this respect, Oliveira et al. On the other hand, Dutra et al. This, according to Martins et al. Soil Chemical Characteristics Analysis of variance did not indicate significant effects for contents of Ca and Mg and for soil cation exchange capacity CEC.
Some beneficial characteristics of biochar as a soil conditioner are its high cation exchange capacity, high specific surface, and affinity for macro- and micronutrients. Joint regression analysis for the two seasons did not provide equations with significant parameters for soil chemical characteristics.
However, comparison of means Table 4 demonstrates that the values of pH, K, and CAMG decreased from the first to the second crops, which may be due to leaching of nutrients and their consumption by the crops. On the other hand, increases in CORG and P may be due to their greater availability to the soil; alternatively, the reaction of carbon with the soil allowed its detection by the methodology employed.
The increase in ESP was due to increased Na levels and decreases in calcium and magnesium. In a similar study by Carvalho et al. However, increases of soil P were observed by Chan et al. According to Madari et al. In a previous study by Petter et al. According to Sohi et al. Table 4 Comparison of means of soil chemical variables for both sampling dates and doses of biochar applied to the soil. However, there was no significant effect of N doses 30 and 60 kg ha-1 or the interaction between doses of carbon and of nitrogen.
Although Silva et al.
The increase in soil pH, as observed in this study, is the most quoted chemical change resulting from biochar application and is, according to Jeffery et al. The corrective effect of soil acidity, according to Verheijen et al. According to Wang et al. In this respect, a study of Petter et al. In a research by Streubel et al. In another study, Chan et al. The authors emphasized the use of biochar from cattle manure that promoted an increase in pH from 4.
In relation to increased soil K values during the duration of this experiment, Jeffery et al. Increased plant-available potassium through biochar application was also observed by Madari et al. Our results differ from those obtained by Petter et al. According to these authors, biochar contains considerable amounts of K and other nutrients. Increased soil K values were also observed by Carvalho et al. The increase in ESP after application of biochar was due to increased soil sodium values not presented and decreased calcium and magnesium values.
The observed reduction in the contents of calcium Ca and magnesium Mg of the soil, which could have been dislocated from the sites of exchange to the soil solution and then leached, is in accordance with results found by Silva et al.
