Bionicle 
 Takanuva went to confront Makuta and, during their battle, they both fell into a pool of energized protodermis, a silvery substance with the power to change or destroy a being, and became fused together into the being Takutanuva.
Bionicle 
 Takutanuva then proceeded to open the door to the city of Metru Nui, allowing the Matoran and Toa through.
Bionicle 
 However, the use of energy was too great and Takutanuva was crushed by the door, seeming to kill both Takanuva and Teridax, leaving only Takanuva's Mask of Light.
Bionicle 
 As the Matoran prepared to journey to Metru Nui, the Turaga (village elders) revealed that they had once been Toa, fighting in Metru Nui against threats such as the Morbuzakh plant creature and the Dume-controlled Vahki enforcement squads.
Bionicle 
 They, as Matoran, were transformed into the Toa Metru by Toa stones containing power sacrificed by Toa Lhikan.
Bionicle 
 Their mission was to find the six Great Disks and defeat the Morbuzakh, a plant menace that threatened to destroy the city.
Bionicle 
 Later, they discovered that Makuta Teridax had taken the disguise of Dume and taken control of the Vahki (law enforcement robots).
Bionicle 
 His plan was to put the Matoran to sleep, wipe out their memories, and reawaken them "as their conqueror."
Bionicle 
 Combining their elemental powers, they were able to seal Teridax in a prison of crystallized protodermis.
Bionicle 
 The Toa traveled to a new island, which would later be known as Mata Nui, vowing to return to save the Matoran.
Bionicle 
 However, the evil king Sidorak and his viceroy Roodaka had been reigning on the island, with vicious spider-like creatures called Visorak.
Bionicle 
 Toa Vakama, however, betrayed the other Toa and joined Sidorak, who made him the leader of the Visorak.
Bionicle 
 However, this had the side effect of freeing Makuta because Roodaka carried a fragment of his prison.
Bionicle 
 When they sacrificed their power to awaken the Matoran, they become Turaga, and later established new villages on this island called Mata Nui.
Bionicle 
 To save him, they must travel to the island of Voya Nui and seek the mysterious Kanohi Ignika, the Mask of Life.
Bionicle 
 The Toa Nuva set out on this adventure but are quickly taken prisoner by six new and powerful enemies, the Piraka: Zaktann, Hakann, Vezok, Thok, Reidak, and Avak.
Bionicle 
 Jaller, Hahli, Hewkii, Nuparu, Kongu, and Matoro escaped to the island in Toa canisters, but as they traveled, bolts of lighting from the Red Star transformed them into the Toa Inika.
Bionicle 
 Upon their arrival, they learn of the Piraka and how they enslaved the local Matoran by posing as false Toa, in order to make the Matoran build them a fortress.
Bionicle 
 With the help of a small Matoran Resistance and the ancient guardian Axonn, the Toa Inika were able to free the Toa Nuva, find the temple of the mask, and battle the Piraka as well as the other creatures guarding it.
Bionicle 
 But the Mask of Life possessed a will of its own, and in the last moment evades them all, rushing into the depths of the sea.
Bionicle 
 Following the chase for the Mask of Life, the Toa Inika descended into the waters after receiving the mysterious clue "save the sunken city" from an unknown Matoran, who had saved Hahli from drowning at the cost of him dying from decompression sickness.[14] A burst of energy from the Mask of Life transformed the Toa Inika into water-breathing forms.
Bionicle 
 They discovered an inhabited village of Mahri Nui that had broken off from Voya Nui and sunk a thousand years ago.
Bionicle 
 The village was threatened by ancient warlords known as Barraki that had been mutated by the nearby mutagenic waters called "The Pit".
Bionicle 
 Realizing there was still hope, Toa Matoro rushed to the core of the universe and sacrificed his life to revive Mata Nui.
Bionicle 
 In the last moments of his life, Toa Matoro used the Mask's power to teleport the Toa Mahri back to Metru Nui and allow them to breathe air again.
Bionicle 
 After being given new armor and weapons by Artakha, the Toa Nuva arrived at Karda Nui, the core of the universe.
Bionicle 
 There, they came to face the Makuta who were trying to turn the population of Av-Matoran – Matoran of Light – into Shadow Matoran.
Bionicle 
 The Toa Nuva were helped by the arrival of Takanuva, now able to control Light and Shadow because of a shadow leech attack, and Toa Ignika, who is the Mask of Life itself.
Bionicle 
 The Kanohi Ignika had made a body for itself because it wished to see what it was like to be a living being.
Bionicle 
 With their combined forces, they reached a structure in the center of Karda Nui called the Codrex, where Toa Ignika had to sacrifice his new body to awaken Mata Nui.
Bionicle 
 Takanuva, with the help of the remaining uncorrupted Av-Matoran, returned the Shadow Matoran to their previous states.
Bionicle 
 Shortly afterwards, the Toa escaped the core before the energy storm caused by Mata Nui's awakening could destroy them.
Bionicle 
 Back in Metru Nui, Mata Nui's awakening was celebrated, but celebration was cut short when it was revealed that Teridax had taken over the body of Mata Nui, revealed to be the universe of the Matoran.
Bionicle 
 Trapping the spirit of Mata Nui in the Mask of Life, he sent it flying into space so that the former Great Spirit cannot interfere with his control over the universe.
Bionicle 
 The Bionicle story continues after Mata Nui was banished from his body by Makuta Teridax, onto a planet called Bara Magna.
Bionicle 
 With the exception of a few wildlife species, Bara Magna is a barren desert planet which only supports few resources, so each tribe on the planet has a few warriors, called Glatorian, to battle for them.
Bionicle 
 Mata Nui then teams up with a few Glatorian to defeat the combined forces of the Skrall and Bone Hunters, two major threats to the villages, and look for a way to return to his body.
Bionicle 
 With the help of his new Glatorian and Agori friends he exposes a traitor known as Metus and defeats the Skrall and Bone Hunters.
Bionicle 
 He helps the villages of the world to unite, taking all of the giant pieces of robot and linking them into a large prototype robotic body, a body like the one the Matoran Universe resides in.
Bionicle 
 After defeating the Skrall and seeing the rest of the villages unite, Mata Nui stands against the challenge of taking back his old body from Teridax.
Bionicle 
 He learns that he was created by the Great Beings on the planet of Spherus Magna, which is now divided into a jungle moon (Bota Magna), an ocean moon (Aqua Magna), and the remaining desert planet (Bara Magna), as the result of the Core War.
Bionicle 
 Mata Nui also learns that before he was built, there was a previous robot, which the Agori use as their home.
Bionicle 
 An Agori of Tesara named Tarduk helps Mata Nui by showing him an ancient power source that could power up the old robot.
Bionicle 
 In this final journey, two heroes return to finish the fight: Tahu, returned to his original form to wear the powerful Golden Armor, and Takanuva.
Bionicle 
 They fight off the Skakdi Warlord, Nektann to defeat Makuta, and his army; hordes of Rahkshi, armed with heat vision; and Skrall.
Bionicle 
 The story continues as the forces of both the Matoran Universe and Glatorian face the oncoming onslaught of Skakdi, Rahkshi, and Skrall.
Bionicle 
 The golden armour, scattered by Makuta's blast is collected by Tahu, Gresh, and Takanuva from the many enemies.
Bionicle 
 Tahu defeats Skakdi warlord Nektann, and then dons the armour, which incinerates every Rahkshi Kraata on Bara Magna.
Bionicle 
 Teridax claims that he will destroy Bara Magna with gravitic energy, until Mata Nui forces his arm upwards, causing Teridax to send the energy wave to the moons above.
Bionicle 
 Mata Nui pushes Teridax back into one of the onrushing moons, the green moon of Bota Magna, whose impact destroys his core processor, which kills Teridax.
Bionicle 
 The finale concludes when Mata Nui uses his strength, and the power of the Mask of Life, to bring Spherus Magna together once more, to heal those who were mutated by Pit Mutagen, to bring life back to the planet, and to reconstruct destroyed geographical features.
Bionicle 
 When the Glatorian and Toa discover the Ignika unscathed in the location where Mata Nui was, Mata Nui speaks to them from within the Mask of Life.
Bionicle 
 The Bionicle toyline drew to a close in late 2009, after the 2010 sets were finalized for release, and was replaced in the summer of 2010 by Hero Factory, a Lego theme that´s compatible with Bionicle sets.
Bionicle 
 But despite this, the story is continuing in serials written by Greg Farshtey online at BIONICLEstory.com .
Bionicle 
 The Bionicle franchise has been well received, with one reviewer describing the sets as "good combination of assembly and action figure" and first-year sales of 100 million British pounds (161.7 million USD).
Bionicle 
 Bionicle had received a Toy of the Year Award for Most Innovative Toy in 2001 from the Toy Industry Association.
Bionicle 
 In 2001, several Māori tribal groups from New Zealand threatened legal action against Lego for allegedly trademarking Māori words used in naming the Bionicle product range.
Bionicle 
 Lego agreed to stop commercial use of the Māori language after sending an executive to meet with Māori representatives in New Zealand.
Bionicle 
 Some Māori terms used by Lego were changed, such as "Huki", which was changed to "Hewkii", and "Tohunga", which was changed to "Matoran".
Bionicle 
 Within the fictional Bionicle universe, these changes were explained by the introduction of a "Naming Day" holiday, in which characters who have done heroic deeds for their village are honored by having the spelling of their name changed (though the pronunciation remains the same).
Bionicle 
 However, a number of Māori terms such as "Toa", which means "warrior", "Kanohi", which means "face", and "Kopaka", which means "cold", were not changed.
Bionicle 
 Since this controversy, Lego has not made any more names that are common terms in other living languages (with the exception of Umbra, a Latin word, and some names that are real names in some languages).
Bionicle 
 According to Stephanie Lawrence, the global director of licensing for Lego, "We've created an evergreen franchise to complement the many event-based properties on the children's market.
Bionicle 
 An increasing number of category manufacturers want to tap into the power of the BIONICLE universe, and the key for us now is to manage the excitement to stay true to the brand and the lifestyle of our core consumer."
Bionicle 
 According to one source, Bionicle has changed the way children think of, and play with, LEGO products by combining "the best of LEGO building with the story telling and adventure of an action figure line," and that 85% of American boys age 6–12 know of the Bionicle brand and 45% own the toys.
Bionicle 
 Paul Hardcastle and Simon Fuller produced the first soundtracks for Bionicle's commercials used in 2001 to 2003.
Bionicle 
 Music for the first three Bionicle films featured a more classical tune, rather that the techno-like beats used in the ads and animations.
Bionicle 
 They were produced by rock band All Insane Kids and are called "Hero" and "Caught In A Dream" (the latter being used as the theme of Bionicle 3).
Bionicle 
 Further down Bionicle's history, more songs were used to help advertise their sets, most of which were produced by Danish band Cryoshell, as well as songs by other artists, like "Crashed" by Daughtry and "Move Along" by The All-American Rejects.

Twin town 
 Twin towns are towns or cities in different countries which are paired to encourage human contact and cultural links.
Twin town 
 In Europe, the pairs of towns are called twin towns, but other languages  say friendship towns or partner towns; in North America and Australasia, the towns are called sister cities.
Twin town 
 Sometimes, even larger areas enter into "twinning" agreements, such as that between the provinces of Hainan in China and Jeju in South Korea.
Twin town 
 The earliest form of town twinning in Europe was between the German city of Paderborn and the French city of Le Mans in 836, although this was not officially established as a modern town twinning arrangement until 1967.
Twin town 
 Coventry, United Kingdom was the first ever city to "twin" with another city (Stalingrad, Soviet Union) and hence began the modern practice of twinning.
Twin town 
 After the Second World War twinning was a way to bring European people into a closer understanding of each other and to promote cross-border projects and peace.
Twin town 
 For example, Coventry twinned with Dresden as an act of peace and reconciliation, both cities having been heavily bombed during the war.
Twin town 
 Each twin city country is represented in a specific ward of the city and in each ward has a peace garden dedicated to that twin city.
Twin town 
 Another early example of town twinning dates back to 1947 when Bristol Corporation (later Bristol City Council) sent five 'leading citizens' on a goodwill mission to Hanover.
Twin town 
 Twinning is more popular in Europe than anywhere else, but the idea has now spread to other continents.
Twin town 
 The first city in North America to establish a sister city relationship was Toledo, Ohio, United States, with Toledo, Spain in 1931.
Twin town 
 In 1944, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada  twinned with the Ukrainian city of Odessa, which at the time was part of the Soviet Union.
Buffyverse 
 It is the setting used for the movie Buffy the Vampire Slayer (BtVS), the BtVS television series and the Angel television series.
Buffyverse 
 Comic books and novels based on both the Buffy and Angel television series and the Fray comic book also take place in the Buffyverse.
Buffyverse 
 The term Buffyverse was created by the fans of the shows and later used by Whedon as the name for his world.
Buffyverse 
 Most of the people in the Buffyverse do not know that these creatures live in this world or that magic exists.
Buffyverse 
 The first Slayer was created long before written history by a group of men who looked like Aborigine.
Buffyverse 
 A place where the borders between the normal world and an evil dimension are weak is called a Hellmouth.
Loudness 
 Volume can mean loudness, for example, in the volume control on computers and televisions which lets you tell the unit how loud you want its sound to be.
Loudness 
 Loudness is measured in Decibels (Db) and can be measured using a "Decibel Meter" or "sound level meter".
Atlas Mountains 
 Most of the people living in the Atlas Mountains are part of Berber tribes in Morocco and in Algeria.
Genetic drift 
 There are forces which add heritable variation to the population, such as mutation and recombination.
Genetic drift 
 This genetic variation is in the form of different alleles at many loci (gene positions) on the chromosomes.
Genetic drift 
 Changes in allele frequency are mainly caused by natural selection, that is, by differential survival, and contribution to the next generation.
Genetic drift 
 But as populations get smaller, there is a tendency for each generation to become more homozygous, with less variety of alleles.
Genetic drift 
 The basic mechanism of drift is that genetic variety is reduced by chance, making the individuals more similar to each other, and hence more vulnerable.
Genetic drift 
 Drift reduces genetic variation in populations, potentially reducing a population’s ability to survive new selective pressures.
Genetic drift 
 Bottleneck events: when a large population is suddenly and drastically reduced in size by some event, the genetic variety will be very much reduced.
Genetic drift 
 Although the population has rebounded, its genetic variability is much less than that of the Southern elephant seal.
Genetic drift 
 The human species is often quoted as having been through such stages, for example, when groups left Africa to set up elsewhere (see human evolution).
Genetic drift 
 These groups, by virtue of their small size, cannot carry the full range of alleles to be found in the parent population.

Feather duster 
 It consists typically of a handle and a segment composed of natural or artificial feathers which form the cleaning-contact surface.
Electrostatics 
 Electrostatics (also known as static electricity) is the branch of physics that deals with apparently stationary electric charges.
Electrostatics 
 Electrostatics involves the buildup of charge on the surface of objects due to contact with other surfaces.
Electrostatics 
 Although charge exchange happens whenever any two surfaces contact and separate, the effects of charge exchange are usually only noticed when at least one of the surfaces has a high resistance to electrical flow.
Electrostatics 
 This is because the charges that transfer to or from the highly resistive surface are more or less trapped there for a long enough time for their effects to be observed.
Electrostatics 
 These charges then remain on the object until they either bleed off to the ground or are quickly neutralized by a discharge: e.g., the familiar phenomenon of a static 'shock' is caused by the neutralization of charge built up in the body from contact with non-conductive surfaces.
Coat of arms of Dominican Republic 
 The coat of arms of the Dominican Republic, as described by Article 96 of the Dominican Constitution, has a shield supported by an olive branch (left) and a palm leaf (right); above the shield, a blue ribbon displays the national motto: Dios, Patria, Libertad (God, Fatherland, Freedom).
