After the Wisconsin Glacier melted around 13,000 B.C., the area slowly warmed, but was still cold and wet. Cold water was everywhere due to glacial melt. Huge lakes and swamps were everywhere. There was a huge lake at Great Meadows. At first the area was Tundra, in which lichens and mosses grew. Later, grass lands filled in the landscape. As climate warmed over a thousand years, Taiga/Boreal Forests grew. The water drained slowly from the glacier and so grasslands grew first. Big game such as mastodons, mammoths, and caribou came into the area, as well as other game such as rabbits and fox. These animals ate the lichens, moss and grasses that grew. This is when Paleo Indians moved into the area. The area was rich in wildlife. Paleo Indians lived in small groups and traveled in search of game and plants to eat. They were hunter-gathers.They lived near water and moved after game became scarce in the area. They ate various berries and plants as well as game hunted. They also ate fresh water clams and fish that migrated north in the Delaware River to spawn such as shad and sturgeon. Fish were caught by spears or fish traps made of stones and sticks. The shallow riffles in rivers were used to catch fish.

Sealing wax is available in the form of sticks, sometimes with a wick, or as granules. The stick is melted at one end (but not ignited or blackened), or the granules heated in a spoon, normally using a flame, and then placed where required, usually on the flap of an envelope. While the wax is still soft and warm, the seal (preferably at the same temperature as the wax, for the best impression) should be quickly and firmly pressed into it and released.[1]

Development of Bullet Witch lasted approximately two years, being handled by the same team who developed Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex for the PlayStation 2.[9] It was the first game developed for seventh generation consoles by Cavia.[10] The concept for Bullet Witch originated from loosey inspired Mahōtsukai Kurohime manga before the next generation of hardware had been revealed to developers, beginning its concept development for sixth generation hardware. After the developers were shown the Xbox 360, they were impressed with its development tools and additional features such as the Xbox Live functions, deciding to develop Bullet Witch for that platform.[11] While development for the PlayStation 3 was considered, the team had begun work on the Xbox 360, and decided to stay on a single platform to deliver the best possible experience.[12] The game used both internal and external staff, with a team size estimated at being between 100 and 120 people. Between 20 and 30 programmers worked on the game.[9][11]

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart displayed scatological humour in his letters and a few recreational compositions. This material has long been a puzzle for Mozart scholarship. Some scholars try to understand it in terms of its role in Mozart's family, his society and his times; others attempt to understand it as a result of an "impressive list"[2] of psychiatric conditions from which Mozart is claimed to have suffered.

Prior to the release of 24 Japan, doubts were expressed by the viewing public about the potential of a Japanese take on the concept of 24. A commonly expressed concern mentioned by one reviewer was that the type of gun-related violence and terrorism portrayed in the American series would not be realistic in a Japanese setting, since a major terror attack had not occurred in Japan since the Tokyo subway sarin attack on 20 March 1995.[7] There was also concern that Karasawa was not the best choice to fill the role of Genba Shidō due to the age difference between him and Kiefer Sutherland at the onset of 24 in 2001 (Karasawa was 57 at time of filming; Sutherland was 34 when he started on 24).[8]

H.P. Hovercraft posted:In Canada, major cities including Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal may award a key to the city to influential business leaders, musicians, and political leaders. In 2016, the Canadian recording artist Drake received a key to the city of Toronto, presented by the mayor John Tory. Also, artist Travis Scott received the Key to the City of Houston presented by the mayor Sylvester Turner on February 13, 2019. In a local tradition, Calgary has opted to award esteemed visitors a symbolic cowboy hat instead of a key; this is usually followed by reciting one of two oaths (one formal, the other more silly) to become honorary Calgarians.[22] ![]()

The JCO facility started to dissolve and mix high-purity enriched uranium oxide with nitric acid to produce uranyl nitrate for shipping on 28 September 1999. The highly-enriched uranium in production was improperly prepared for fuel conversion. Pressure placed upon staff to prepare uranyl nitrate for shipping led to several errors including pouring the solution (uranium oxide in nitric acid). The technicians opted to pour the product by hand in stainless-steel buckets directly into a precipitation tank.[6] This process inadvertently contributed to a critical mass level incident triggering uncontrolled nuclear chain reactions over the next several hours.

This has led to phrases (and variants of) "You let the smoke out!", "There's too many angry pixies running through the circuit!", "The magic smoke is escaping." or "I think you set your power supply too high; there is magic smoke coming from that resistor!" as euphemisms for the destruction of a component by overheating.

Aackosoft went bankrupt in 1988, after which poo poo!, alongside other Aackosoft titles, were re-published by Premium III Software Distribution and developed by Eurosoft (a former label of Aackosoft) in the same year.[5] Premium III Software Distribution released the 30 MSX Hits compilation in 1988, including Oh poo poo! as part of its lineup.[5] According to Dutch gaming magazine MSX-DOS Computer Magazine, after Aackosoft went bankrupt in 1988, their intellectual property was transferred to a company called Methodic Solutions, and all previous MSX Aackosoft titles were re-published by Premium III Software Distribution and developed by Eurosoft, both separately and in a compilation titled 30 MSX Hits.[5] The 1988 30 MSX Hits compilation release of Oh poo poo! offers MSX2[a] compatibility.[1][2] All MSX releases of Oh poo poo!, poo poo! and Oh No! are cassette releases, except for the 30 MSX Hits release, which had both cassette and floppy disk releases.[1][2]

The origin of the "Cool S" is unclear.[8] A similar S was derived from the symbols of an ancient Dacian solar cult. It was called “Carligul Ciobanului”, meaning “Shepherd’s Hook” and represented bringing back something that was lost.[9] In Latvia, the symbol was called Zalktis and represented a serpent goddess.[10] The ouroboros, which dates back to ancient Egypt and was used as a symbol of gnosticism and alchemy, was sometimes drawn with a loop to resemble the cool S. During the Middle Ages, a strikingly close symbol became a kilim motif. Possibly related to the aforementioned Dacian symbol or the ouroboros, it was called the çengel and was supposed to destroy the evil eye.[11] The çengel was drawn with three pairs of dots or vertical lines connected much like the Cool S, but the bottom left and top right ones connected sideways, not diagonally. This is a possible explanation for the symbol’s appearance on an Anatolian rug in The Ambassadors by Hans Holbein the Younger in 1533. However, in that painting the S may also be denoting "God Almighty".[12] A similar-looking S also appears in the 1890 book Mechanical Graphics.[2]

Good Times! is the twelfth studio album by American pop rock band the Monkees. Produced mainly by Adam Schlesinger (with some additional bonus tracks produced by Andrew Sandoval), the album was recorded to commemorate the band's 50th anniversary. It is the first Monkees studio album since Justus (1996), marking the longest gap between Monkees albums to date, and the first since the death of founding member Davy Jones. The album features surviving Monkees Micky Dolenz, Michael Nesmith, and Peter Tork, as well as a posthumous contribution from Jones. The album received generally positive reviews from music critics and reached number 14 on the Billboard 200, becoming the band's highest-charting album in 48 years.
