Mining 
 Gold can be mined by searching in the bed of a river or other stream of water to remove the flakes of gold.
Mining

Condom 
 They can also prevent the spread of certain  sexually transmitted infections, such as  gonorrhea, syphilis, or HIV.
Condom 
 Certain people prefer sheepskin condoms over latex ones, because sheepskin condoms can transfer body warmth better.
Condom 
 They have no health-related side effects for either the man or the woman, and they are one of the few types of birth control that also reduce the spread of infections.
Condom 
 If the couple decides to have a baby, they can stop using condoms at any time and begin trying to get pregnant with no delay.
Condom 
 During sex, the couple must stop to put on the condom just before beginning intercourse, which interrupts and distracts them at an exciting time.
Condom 
 Condoms reduce the physical feelings of intercourse, especially for the man, who cannot feel the heat and sensation of the woman's vagina as much.
Condom 
 Condoms can also reduce the emotional closeness the man and woman feel during intercourse because there is something between them.
Condom 
 Condoms are less effective than many other types of birth control, and if a couple is in a steady relationship and are having sex very often, condoms can become more expensive to use.
Condom 
 For these reasons, once a man and woman are in a steady relationship and are sure they are free of infection, the woman often begins to use birth control pills or some other highly effective contraceptive, after which the couple stops using condoms.
Condom 
 When using a condom for the first time, it could help to try using it alone to get familiar with condoms without any danger.
Condom 
 They are method effectiveness, where how many couples that use the condom every time they have sex do not get pregnant; and actual effectiveness, where the number of people that use condoms either correctly or incorrectly and do not get pregnant are looked at.
Condom 
 The actual failure rate is different in different places, and the rates can be anywhere between 10 and 18% per year.
Condom 
 Other sexually-transmitted infections may be affected as well, but they could not draw definite conclusions from the research they were working with.
Condom 
 In particular, these include STIs associated with ulcerative lesions that may be present on body surfaces where the condom does not cover, such as human papillomavirus (HPV), genital herpes simplex (HSV), chancroid, and syphilis.
Condom 
 If contact is made with uncovered lesions, transmission of these STIs may still occur despite appropriate condom use.
Condom 
 Additionally, the absence of visible lesions or symptoms cannot be used to decide whether caution is needed.
Condom 
 An article in The American Journal of Gynecologic Health showed that "all women who correctly and consistently used Reality® were protected from trichomonas vaginalis" (referring to a particular brand of female condom).

Piano 
 The piano is an acoustic, keyboard and stringed musical instrument in which the strings are struck by wooden hammers that are coated with a softer material (modern hammers are covered with dense wool felt; some early pianos used leather).
Piano 
 It is played using a keyboard, which is a row of keys (small levers) that the performer presses down or strikes with the fingers and thumbs of both hands to cause the hammers to strike the strings.
Piano 
 It was invented in Italy by Bartolomeo Cristofori around the year 1700 (the exact year is uncertain),
Piano 
 The piano has been an extremely popular instrument in Western classical music since the late 18th century.
Piano 
 It developed from the clavichord which looks like a piano but the strings of a clavichord are hit by a small blade of metal called a “tangent”.
Piano 
 The early keyboarded instruments, such as the clavichords, harpsichords and organs that were used at that time, had a much shorter keyboard than they do today.
Piano 
 Gradually the keyboard became longer until it had the 88 notes (7 octaves plus three notes) of the modern piano.
Piano 
 It was given this name because it could be played either loudly or softly, depending on how hard the note was hit (the harpsichord could not do this, and the clavichord could only make a tiny difference between louder and softer).
Piano 
 The word “fortepiano” is sometimes used to describe the pianos of the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
Piano 
 Although the piano was invented at the beginning of the 18th century, it was not until 50 years later that it started to become popular.
Piano 
 The first time the piano was played in a public concert in London was in 1768 when it was played by Johann Christian Bach.
Piano 
 This means that the strings for the low notes go diagonally across the soundboard so that they can be longer and make a much bigger sound.
Piano 
 They were not very heavy, but they were not very strong or loud, so they could not be heard very well in a big concert hall.
Piano 
 This made the piano much stronger so that it could make a bigger sound and the strings were not likely to break.
Piano 
 The most famous early-romantic piano maker was Conrad Graf (1782–1851), who made Beethoven's last piano.
Piano 
 Prominent piano makers among the French during the era of the fortepiano included Erard, Pleyel (Chopin’s favorite maker) and Boisselot (Liszt’s favorite).
Piano 
 In the second half of the 20th century people started to be more interested in period instruments, including harpsichord and fortepiano.
Piano 
 Some of the more known fortepiano builders included in this 20th-century fortepiano revival have been Philip Belt, Margaret F. Hood, Christopher Clark and Paul McNulty.
Piano 
 When the player takes their finger off the key the damper falls back onto the string and the sound stops.
Piano 
 At the bottom of every modern piano, there are at least two pedals, which are levers that the pianist presses down with his or her feet to change the sound.
Piano 
 The damper pedal (also called the sustain pedal) is the pedal on the right, and the one that is used most often.
Piano 
 It is pressed with the pianist's right foot, and makes the dampers (which look a bit like the hammers) that usually rests on the strings come off, so the strings are free to vibrate.
Piano 
 As long as the pianist holds this pedal down, the notes he plays will keep on sounding even when he takes his fingers off the keys.
Piano 
 Some other strings will also vibrate very lightly (this is called “sympathetic vibration”), which makes the sound smoother and richer.
Piano 
 This will depend on such things as the style of the music, the size of the piano, the size and the acoustics of the room in which the instrument is in.
Piano 
 The soft pedal (also called the una corda pedal) is the pedal on the left, and is pressed with the pianist's left foot.
Piano 
 On a grand piano, the whole keyboard and action shift a bit to the left so that the hammers only hit two strings instead of three.
Piano 
 The soft pedal is usually used only in classical music and is normally kept down for the whole of a piece or a section of a piece.
Piano 
 On pianos with three pedals, the pedal in the middle does different things on a grand and upright piano.
Piano 
 Like the right pedal, it keeps the sound going, but only on the notes that are being played at the moment when the middle pedal is pressed down.
Piano 
 It places a piece of cloth in front of the strings, making the sound very quiet so that a pianist can practice without disturbing other people.
Piano 
 The damper pedal is the most important pedal, and so many composers often write down in a piece of music when the pianist should press and when he or she should let go of the damper pedal.
Piano 
 where the pedal should be pressed, and one that looks like an asterisk where the pedal should be let go.
Piano 
 Often, the pianist will let go of the pedal and press it again right away; this is called changing pedal.
Piano 
 It means that the damper pedal should be used, but the pianist should know when to change the pedal.
Piano 
 It is held down until another sign, tre corde (meaning three strings), appears, telling the pianist to let go of the soft pedal.
Piano 
 In early pianos, it was possible to press the pedal a little way so that the hammers hit two strings, then press it further so that they hit only one string.
Piano 
 There is no sign for the sostenuto pedal, so it is up to the pianist on whether to use it in a specific piece of music.
Piano 
 Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart started to learn on harpsichords when he was very small, but the piano was becoming popular when he was a young man and he wrote many sonatas and concertos for the piano.
Piano 
 Later composers include Sergei Rachmaninoff, Claude Debussy, Maurice Ravel, Sergei Prokofiev, Dmitri Shostakovich and Bela Bartok.
Piano 
 Some famous piano players from the early days of the piano include Dussek, Mozart, Muzio Clementi, John Field and Chopin.
Piano 
 In the 19th century Franz Liszt was a very great influence on the piano by composing and performing very difficult music.
Piano 
 20th century pianists include Artur Schnabel, Vladimir Horowitz, Josef Hofmann, Wilhelm Kempff, Dinu Lipati, Claudio Arrau, Artur Rubinstein,  Sviatoslav Richter and Alfred Brendel.
Piano 
 Among the greatest pianists today are Vladimir Ashkenazy, Daniel Barenboim, Leif Ove Andsnes, Boris Berezovsky and Evgeny Kissin.
Piano 
 Pianists who play popular music include  Liberace, Jerry Lee Lewis, Little Richard, Elton John, Billy Joel, Thelonious Monk, Tori Amos and Ray Charles.
Piano 
 Also a number of modern harpsichordists and pianists have achieved success in fortepiano performance, including Paul Badura-Skoda, Malcolm Bilson, Andras Schiff, Kristian Bezuidenhout, Ronald Brautigam, Alexei Lubimov, duet Katie and Marielle Labeque, Yuan Sheng, Gary Cooper, Jörg Demus, Richard Egarr, Richard Fuller, Robert Hill, Geoffrey Lancaster, Vladimir Feltsman, Robert Levin, Steven Lubin, Bart van Oort, Trevor Pinnock, Viviana Sofronitsky, Andreas Staier, Melvyn Tan, Jos van Immerseel and Olga Pashchenko.
Piano 
 The piano has been a very popular instrument ever since the mid 18th century when it soon replaced the clavichord and the harpsichord.
Piano 
 At first these included square pianos and giraffe pianos, later on the upright pianos became popular for home use.
Piano 
 The piano can also be used together with other instruments, in jazz groups, and for accompanying singing.
