A utility pole, telegraph pole, telephone pole, power pole, or telegraph post is a post or pole upon which telephone network equipment is situated.
Similar poles are often used for electricity cables (with pylons being used for only the higher voltage applications) and frequently a pole will share both power and communications lines.
Telegraph poles first became commonplace in the middle 19th century.
At first they had only one wire, then in urban areas many.
In Canada, the poles are commonly referred to as hydro poles, as the electric companies commonly have "Hydro" in their name.
Utility poles are usually wooden, but vary greatly from nation to nation.
Other common utility pole materials are steel and concrete, with composites (fibreglass) becoming used more often.
In some countries, for example the UK, poles have sets of brackets arranged in a standard pattern up the pole to act as hand and foot holds for those working on the equipment or connections atop the pole.

A clementine is a type of citrus fruit.
It has a bright orange rind.
They have a diameter of about 3 to 5 inches.
Clementines are easy to peel and have no seeds.
They are grown in California, and are usually available from November to January.
They were more popular outside the United States than inside, but in 1997, there were not many Florida oranges available because it was very cold.
People bought clementines instead, which made them more popular.
Clementines are popular in the winter months.
They are usually found in wooden crates in the supermarket.
A popular clementine brand is called Cuties.
They are named after a French monk, Père Clément Rodier, who lived in North Africa at the beginning of the 20th century.
He either found a natural mutation of the mandarin orange, which he grew, or he created a hybrid of the mandarin and the Seville oranges.
The fruit, however, may have originated long before in Asia.

A mango is a type of fruit.
The mango tree is native to South Asia, from where it has been taken to become one of the most widely cultivated fruits in the tropics.
It is harvested in the month of March (summer season) until the end of May.
Pakistan and India share the major export market of mangoes.
It is also their national fruit.
Ripe mangoes are very sweet in taste but they are bitterly sour before they ripen.
There are many different types of mangoes found in India such as Langra, Dusshera, Chausa, Tota, Safadi.
Alphonso mangoes can be found in various parts of  western India.
These mangoes are also indigenous to the southern part of Nigeria, Akwa Ibom.
Described by these southerners (the Ibibios) as Grade 1 mangoes.
Mango trees
The tree is mainly known for its fruit rather than for its wood.
However, mango trees can be converted to lumber once their fruit bearing lifespan had finished.
The wood is susceptible to damage from fungi and insects.
The wood is used for musical instruments such as Ukeleles, plywood and low-cost furniture.
The wood is also known to produce phenolic substances that can cause dermatitis.
It was the state tree of Junagadh State.
A shuttlecock is used in the sport badminton.
The shuttlecock center is hit with a badminton racquet over the net, in this fast sport.
A shuttlecock is also called a shuttle.
Other names for shuttlecock are bird, or birdie, because it can be made with feathers.
Shuttlecocks can be made of many types of materials, including plastic and feathers.
It creates a cone shape, and is held together by a round center, usually made of cork or rubber.
The cone shape the feathers, or other materials create is called a shuttlecock skirt.
In North America and Europe, feather shuttlecocks cost more.
In Asia, where the prices of feathers are lower, shuttles made of plastic are rarely used; feather shuttles are used.
It is harder to hit a feather shuttlecock fast, because there is more drag.
They are also less durable than plastic shuttles.
Experienced badminton players usually play with feather shuttlecocks, and in competition, badminton is almost always played with feather shuttles.
They feel that feather shuttles give them more control, and better play is needed to hit feather shuttles.
In school gyms and amateur/beginner clubs in Europe and North America, plastic shuttlecocks are more often used than feather ones.
This is to save feathers, since plastic shuttlecocks do not break easily.
Feathers on the feather shuttles bend or break if the player does not hit the cork or rubber center.

Olive (fruit), the fruits of the olive tree
Olive (color), the colour of these fruits
The olive (Olea europaea) is the fruit of the olive tree.
It is an important food crop in countries around the Mediterranean Sea, and places with a Mediterranean climate.
It is a healthy food but rather fatty.
It has olive oil, one of the fattiest cooking oils in use, even more than palm, canola and other vegetable oils.
Olive oil is the juice made by crushing olives.
It is considered to be healthier alternative to sunflower oil.
In Roman literature, the olive branch is used as a symbol of peace: "extending the olive branch".
In Christianity, too, it is seen as a symbol of peace, because according to the Bible, a dove brought an olive branch to Noah to show that the flood was over.
Many writers and illustrators use olive branches around text to give it greater artistic credit (a similar effect is achieved with wheat).
The raw olives are very bitter.
They are "cured" mostly by bacterial fermentation.
Later they may be alternately washed with water and packed with salt.
The procedures vary a lot, and different varieties of olives get different treatment.
The bitter chemical oleuropein, a phenol compound, has to be broken down or removed.
This is what the curing process does.
Even so, olives still often do have a rather bitter taste.
There is a variety called "Kalamata" which grows around
kalamata region in Greece.
The olives which are eaten raw and have a very pleasant taste.

A speed limit is a legal limit on how fast a road vehicle can be driven.
Some roads also have a minimum speed limit, which is how slow a vehicle is allowed to travel.
Reducing speed reduces the number of accidents by giving more time to the driver to manage their vehicle.
Reduces the consequences of an accident by reducing the energy involved in that crash.
Climate and environment
Because the emission of air pollutants increases disproportionately with increasing speed, speed limits are used to protect the climate and the environment.
They are also used to reduce noise pollution.
Minimizing the speed differences in traffic leads to more consistent speeds, which increases road capacity and reduces the risk of congestion.
This improves the flow of traffic.
Due to the lower probability and severity of accidents, there are also fewer accident-related closures with a speed limit.
Driving situation
Speed limits are also used because they can create a more relaxed atmosphere for drivers.
Speed limits in different countries
In the UK, the speed limit in towns is usually 30 miles per hour, which is about 50 km/h, and the speed limit on dual carriageways and motorways is usually 70 miles per hour, which is about 105 km/h. In France, the speed limit on motorways is usually 130 kilometres per hour, which is about 80 miles per hour.
Also, in the United States, most highways are from 65 to 70 miles per hour, and freeways are from 55 to 80 miles per hour.
In Canada, the speed limit is usually about 100 km/h. In Australia the speed limit on freeways, highways and rural roads is between 100 and 130 kilometres per hour, and in towns and cities between 40 and 60 km/h but can go up to 90 km/h.
Nowadays, in the European Union, speed limits may vary from country to country or from region to region.
Typical speed limits are 130 km/h or 120 km/h on rural motorways, between 80 and 100 km/h for rural roads, 70 km/h on point requiring a reduced speed, 50 km/h in main urban roads, and 30 km/h on residential urban areas.
Germany does not have a general speed limit for its motorways, but a recommended speed (Richtgeschwindigkeit) of 130 km/h. Sometimes, there are also variable or temporary speed limits.
However, most Germans want a speed limit.
There are also many organizations that support a speed limit in Germany like Deutscher Verkehrssicherheitsrat, Auto Club Europa, Verkehrsclub Deutschland, Deutsche Umwelthilfe, Bund für Umwelt und Naturschutz Deutschland, Greenpeace, World Wide Fund for Nature, Sachverständigenrat für Umweltfragen, Wuppertal Institut für Klima, Umwelt, Energie gGmbH, Gewerkschaft der Polizei, Deutscher Ärztetag, Umweltbundesamt and Evangelische Kirche in Mitteldeutschland.

Pure Pwnage is an Internet video series.
It is about a man named Jeremy who spends his days playing video games and making fun of other people, or as he calls them, "n00bs".
The first season of the show had 12 episodes.
The people who make the show are planning to make at least two more seasons and maybe a full length movie.
The first season ends with a cliffhanger that leads into the second season.
The second season is expected to be put online in 2007.
The show started when two friends got together and made a short video of the main character talking about video games.
Inspired by the cultural phenomenon that online video gaming has become, and the series creators' personal online experiences; the series actually spawned from a project for film school.
After they uploaded the video onto the Internet, it got downloaded a few thousand times, so they made Episode 1: Life of a Pro Gamer.
The character 'Jeremy'(Played by Jarett Cale), also known as 'teh_pwnerer', was designed to comically represent, and almost stereotype, online gamers around the world.
This concept was based loosely around the idea of a person who had grown up doing nothing but online gaming; whose entire vocabulary and social mannerisms were molded solely by internet interactions.
As such, the episode was supposed to be a mockumentary of sorts, as Jeremy is followed and filmed by younger brother 'Kyle'(Geoff Lapaire) (Played depicting "A day in the life of a ProGamer".
After this became very popular, they made episodes 2 and 3.
When episode 4 was downloaded roughly 3000 times, they decided that they should pursue this full-time.
Throughout the series, the characters make use of many expressions in videogame terminology, including "noob", "uber-micro" and of course "pwnage".
"FPS_Doug" -- Jeremy's illtempered rival (and sociopath), played by Joel Gardiner;
"Dave" -- Jeremy's close friend and local 'ProCook', played by Dave Lee
"Tagi" -- Jeremy's World of Warcraft addicted love interest, played by Miranda Plant
"TBag" -- the heavily sponsored Halo 3 player,
and "Teh_Masterer" -- Jeremy's ninja-clad mentor, Played by Geoff Lapaire - Voiced by Fr.
William Craig
as well as an assortment of villains.
The series has also adopted a dynamic storyline in favour of its original, pseudo-casual style of interviews.
Despite the additional casting and switch towards plot driven episodes, the series remains true to its satirical view of current trends in the gaming industry and the greater online community.
The series has quickly developed a large fan base, spanning across multiple continents, and only continues in its success as its 2nd season comes to a close.

The Formula One World Drivers' Championship (WDC) is the most successful Formula One race car driver of the year.
The award is given by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) to the driver who scores the most points during a season.
The WDC was first awarded in 1950, to Giuseppe "Nino" Farina.
The first driver to win more than one Championship was Alberto Ascari, in 1952 and 1953.
The latest driver awarded the championship is called the reigning or defending champion.
As of the end of the 2021 Formula One season, the reigning champion is Max Verstappen of Red Bull Racing.
The FIA does not officially award the Championship until the end of the season.
Sometimes one driver will be far ahead of the other drivers in points.
Even if the leading driver scores no more points, none of the other drivers could pass his point total.
When this happens, the driver is said to have clinched the Championship.
By season
The  and  championships were run to Formula Two regulations.
Fangio competed in the 1954 Argentine and Belgian Grands Prix with Maserati, then completed the season with Mercedes.
Rindt's championship was confirmed two rounds after he had been killed in an accident during qualifying for the Italian Grand Prix.
Michael Schumacher scored 78 points during the  season, 3 points behind Villeneuve, but was disqualified from the championship for deliberately colliding with Villeneuve in the final race of the season, the European Grand Prix.
This left Villeneuve with a 39-point margin over Heinz-Harald Frentzen with 42 points.

Henry I the Fowler (German: Heinrich der Finkler or Heinrich der Vogler; Latin: Henricius Auceps) (876–2 July 936) was the duke of Saxony from 912 and king of the Germans from 919 until his death.
He was the first of the Ottonian Dynasty of German kings and emperors and therefore he is generally considered to be the founder and first king of the medieval German state, that was known until then as East Francia.
As he was an eager hunter, he was called "the Fowler" (someone who hunts wildfowl) because it was said he was fixing birding nets when messengers arrived to inform him that he was to be king.

A propeller makes an aircraft, ship, or submarine in water or air go by making a big wind or a strong stream.
It does this by turning two or more wings very quick.
The blades of a propeller act as rotating wings, and produce force through application of both Bernoulli's principle and Newton's third law, generating a difference in pressure between the forward and rear surfaces of the airfoil-shaped blades.

A fluid is a substance that can move easily and change shape such as water (liquids), or air (gases), or plasmas.
They can 'flow'- flow and fluids both come from the same English word roots (Latin: fluere "to flow") and are pronounced similarly.
The physics of fluids is called fluid mechanics.
Some things are not exactly fluid and not exactly solid, such as Silly Putty.
Powders are made up of small solids that appear to flow but don't actually.
Most fluids have a freezing point.
At this temperature it becomes solid.

Monochrome comes from the two Greek words mono (meaning "one") and chroma (meaning "surface" or "the colour of the skin").
If something is monochromatic, it only has a single color.
For an image, the term monochrome usually means the same as black-and-white or grayscale.
It may also be used when talking about other combinations that only have two colors, for example, green-and-white or green-and-black.
In computing, monochrome has two meanings:
It may mean having only one color which is either on or off.
If it also has shades of that color, then it is called grayscale.
A monochrome computer monitor can only show a single color, often green, amber, red or white.
It can often also show shades of that color.

(British English) (also called a half step or a half tone) is the smallest musical interval used in Western music.
It is the distance between two notes which are next to one another in pitch.
This is easy to see with a picture of a keyboard.
The distance between two white notes that are side by side may be a whole tone (if there is a black note in between them) or a semitone (if there is no black note between).
An octave is divided into twelve semitones.
These semitones are exactly equal in size.

An airfoil (in American English, or aerofoil in British English) is the shape of a wing, or blade of a propeller, the blade of a ship's screw or the shape of a sail as seen in cross-section.
When moving through a fluid it will provide lift and drag.
Lift is not only up, it may be in other directions depending on what it is used for.
Silly Putty (originally called nutty putty) is a silicone plastic "clay", sold as a toy for children by Binney & Smith Inc.. It was created as a scientific accident when scientists in the United States were trying to find a substitute for rubber during World War II.
Silly Putty is sold as a 0.47 oz (13 g) piece of plastic clay inside an egg-shaped plastic container.
It is an example of an inorganic plastic (polymer).
It has many unusual characteristics.
When pressed on comics or other newspaper pages, the loose ink transfers to the Silly Putty, which is then able to be stretched out.
It bounces, showing its rubber qualities.
It breaks when you give it a sharp blow.
It can flow like a liquid when it is slowly stretched and will "melt" into a puddle over a long enough period of time, and so shows properties of non-newtonian liquids.

The Maloideae (which is a Latin plural form) is a traditional name for a subfamily of plants in the rose family (Rosaceae).
These plants are shrubs and small trees.
The most well known Maloideae are apples and pears.
Recently it has been shown that the Maloideae are a part of the traditional subfamily Amygdaloideae, and most botanists no longer use the name Maloideae.
A Rowan is a type of fruit-bearing plant in the family Rosaceae.
They grow in the cooler areas of Europe and Asia.
The fruit is a 4-8 mm diameter ball.
It is bright orange or red in most species, but pink, yellow or white in some Asian species.
The fruit is soft and juicy.
Fragaria × vescana is a plant in the family Rosaceae.
It is a type of strawberry.
It is a mix between a Beach Strawberry and a Strawberry that is normal.
.htaccess is a type of computer file for the configuring of some web servers.
.htaccess files can be used to create custom error pages, or to prevent visitors from directly linking pictures, also known as hot-linking to their own sites, costing the website owner bandwidth and therefore money.
Preventing direct or Hot-linking
A .htaccess file is put onto the website, so that people will not be able to go onto the URL of the image (picture) (example: www.website.com/image.filetype).
Owners can replace this picture, after they upload the file, with a message, or it can be made to redirect to an error page.
Examples of .htaccess being used
By default, MediaWiki uses http://www.example.org/index.php/Main_Page type of URL to display the main page.
But by changing the .htaccess and LocalSettings.php, it can display URLs like http://www.example.org/wiki/Main_Page so that it will look nicer (like Wikipedia).
By default, all posts made in Wordpress uses http://www.example.org/?p=123 to display posts.
But it can be changed into URLs like http://www.example.org/2010/06/postname in .htaccess and the permalink setting in the site admin of that blog.

Some butchers also kill the animals the meat is from.
Butchers also prepare sausages, and other meat-products.
Hotlinking is an internet term.
It means displaying an image on a website by linking to the website hosting the image.
The link gets the source data of the picture each time it is needed.
This avoids having the image on every website which uses it.
So, a website owner uses a link to the picture such as http://example.com/picture.jpg.
When the hotlinking website is loaded, the image is loaded from the original website, which uses its bandwidth, so it costs the hotlinked website money.
For this reason many website owners use .htaccess files to prevent hotlinking.
In some cases website owners use the .htaccess file to replace any hotlinked images with an offensive image to deter any other website owners from hotlinking.
Hotlinked images are usually hosted on sites like imgur.
The original image may be owned by the original website.
It might be wrong to make a copy of the original image file for use on a different web page, without being careful to get proper permission.
Hotlinking is known as the act of using another website's bandwidth by linking directly to their website's assets, such as images or videos.
For example, say the owner of website A is hosting a particular image on their server.
The owner of website B sees that image and decides they want it on their website as well.
However, instead of downloading the image and hosting it on his own server, the owner of website B links directly to website A's domain.
Therefore, instead of linking to the image via their own domain such as:
https://websiteB.com/path/to/image.jpg
https://websiteA.com/path/to/image.jpg
Hotlinking someone's website assets can vastly increase their hosting costs.
How to avoid hotlinking
As a website user you should always try to avoid hotlinking assets from other websites.
Doing so helps ensure that the original owner of the asset won't incur unnecessary charges and that the asset that you link to won't be unaccessible given that the owner implements hotlink protection or removes the asset.
The following are a couple of solutions for avoiding hotlinking.
Host the assets on your own server.
If you have found an image from another website and you would like to use it on your own website, you can upload the image directly to your server and deliver it from there.
Doing this will also increase the delivery speed of the asset as the browser does not need to perform an additional DNS lookup.
Use a third party host.
Using images as an example again, if you find an image that you want to link to but don't have a server to upload it to, you can use a third party host.
An image hosting service for example will allow you to upload your image and link to it directly within your website or any other location.
There are some steps that you can take to prevent hotlinking.
Enable Hotlinking Protection in CDN
Some CDN providers provide in-built hotlinking protection.
Restrict hotlinking by directly blocking specific domains
The alternative method for protecting your website from hotlinking is by direct blocking specific domains that try to use your content.
All you need to do is to make a complete list of websites that includes your competitors, suspect websites, hackers and suspicious websites that can use your website content, and directly block them one by one.
Prevent hotlinking by change or rename your files
This is one of the simplest and highly effective methods to prevent hotlinking.
If you experience high traffic all of sudden on your traffic or find out multiple websites are hotlinking to particular content, then simply renaming or changing your content/image URL can do wonders in this situation.
Prevent hotlinking using plugins
Platforms such as WordPress have plugins available that prevent hotlinking.
File a DMCA protection
The last and final step you can take is to File DMCA protection against the website that is hotlinking your content on their website without your permission or license.
This method can be very effective if the website owner refuses to remove the hotlinks to your content.

Nuclear power is the controlled use of nuclear energy.
Nuclear energy can be released by nuclear reactions in a machine called a nuclear reactor.
This energy boils water for a steam engine to make electricity, which then can be used to power machines and homes.
In 2007, 14% of the world's electricity came from nuclear power.
Nuclear power plants also make radioactive waste that could be harmful if it is not stored properly.
People have also been studying since the middle 20th century to use fusion power which produces much more energy and doesn't produce radioactive waste.
Nuclear fusion reactors don't exist yet and are still being developed.
Enrico Fermi made the first nuclear reactor in 1941.
Many reactors were built in the U.S. during World War II during the Manhattan Project.
In 1954 the first nuclear power plant started in Obninsk near Moscow.
Most nuclear power plants in the U.S. were built during the 1960s and 1970s.
Nuclear reactors also power some large military ships and submarines.
Energy production
Nuclear reactors use a process called nuclear fission, which uses atoms like uranium or plutonium (In particular the isotope Uranium 235) and splits them apart with particles called neutrons.
This converts some of the mass into energy, according to Einstein's equation E=mc2.
The fissionable elements are placed into rods called 'fuel rods'.
The fuel rods are submerged in water, and the energy released in the fission reaction heats up the water which turns into steam.
The steam then turns a turbine, which generates electricity.
The steam is then condensed in huge cooling towers, and it turns back into water and is sent into the reactor again.
The reaction can be controlled by putting 'control rods' in between the fuel rods.
The control rods are generally made of boron, which absorbs neutrons and stops the reaction.
A nuclear meltdown can happen when the reaction is not controlled, and starts to generate dangerous radioactive gases (like Krypton).
Contrary to popular belief, nuclear reactors can't explode like a nuclear bomb, but it is a danger when radioactive materials escape.
Some serious nuclear accidents have occurred.
A scale was made to measure how dangerous accidents are.
It is called the International Nuclear Event Scale.
The scale has 8 levels (0-7), and 7 is the worst.
Chernobyl disaster, happened in 1986; classified at level 7.
Fukushima nuclear disaster, happened in 2011 as a result of an earthquake, level 7.
Mayak accident; happened in 1957.
The amount of radiation released and the general danger was higher than that of Chernobyl.
The affected area was smaller  though.
For these reasons the accident is only classified as level 6.
Windscale fire in 1957 and Three Mile Island accident in 1979, at level 5.
Tokaimura nuclear accident at level 4
There is a debate about the use of nuclear power.
Supporters, such as the World Nuclear Association and IAEA, argue that nuclear power is a sustainable energy source that reduces carbon emissions.
Additionally, it does not contribute to smog or acid rain.
Anti-nuclear opponents, such as Greenpeace International and the Nuclear Information and Resource Service, believe that nuclear power poses threats to people and the environment.
Recent developments
In 2007, nuclear power plants made some 2600 TWh of electricity and provided 14 percent of the electricity used in the world, which represented a fall of 2 per cent compared with 2006.
As of May 9, 2010, there were 438 (372 GW) nuclear reactors operating globally.
A peak was reached in 2002 when there were 444 nuclear reactors operating.
The nuclear emergencies at Japan's Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant and other nuclear facilities raised questions about the future of nuclear power.
Platts has said that "the crisis at Japan's Fukushima nuclear plants has prompted leading energy-consuming countries to review the safety of their existing reactors and cast doubt on the speed and scale of planned expansions around the world".
Following the Fukushima nuclear disaster, the International Energy Agency halved its estimate of additional nuclear generating capacity to be built by 2035.
Software versioning is a way to name different versions of computer software.
A computer software has different states in its life-cycle process from Development through deployment into Production and Sustainment.
Each state in the process is given a unique version and version number.
Versions are most often a sequence of one to four numbers (for example, 12.2.3) to represent Major.
Maintenance actions, but can also use names, dates, or other sequencing mechanisms.
In some practices, the numbers are used with variations like the 3rd digit being replaced by a letter (for example, 4.1a).
The changes are all revisions in that something is being changed and the version number tells people how complex the change is to the software.
Many times, after a program has been made, things called patches can be downloaded from the program's website.
The patches usually make small updates or fixes to the main program, such as fixing bugs or updating information or program functions.
When a patch is used, the program is advanced to the next version, advancing the version number by the appropriate level.
Sympathy exists when the feelings or emotions of one person lead to similar feelings in another person so that they share feeling.
Mostly sympathy means the sharing of unhappiness or suffering, but it can also mean sharing other (positive) emotions.
In a broader sense, it can refer to the sharing of political or ideological sentiments, such as in the phrase "a communist sympathiser".
The psychological state of sympathy is closely linked with that of empathy, but is not identical to it.
Empathy is understanding and feeling another person's emotions as they feel them, but makes no statement as to how they are viewed.
Sympathy, by contrast, implies a degree of equal feeling, that is, the sympathiser views the matter similarly to how the person themselves does.
It thus implies concern, or care or a wish to reduce negative feelings others are experiencing.
A puddle is a small mass of liquid, usually water, uncontained on a surface.
It can form either in depressions in the surface, or directly upon the flat surface, held together by surface tension.
A puddle is generally considered to be small enough to step over or shallow enough to walk through, and too small to traverse with a boat.
A beam is a structural  element that carries structural load.
Beams generally carry vertical forces, but can also be used to carry horizontal loads (Those loads can result from wind or an earthquake).
The loads that a beam carries are led to columns or walls, which lead the force to the next element.
Beams are characterized by their profile (their shape), their length, and their material.
In constructions of today beams are mostly made of steel, reinforced concrete, or wood.
The structural load or forces (weights, wind or water pressure, earthquake shocks, etc.)
applied to a structure.

In music, organ is a word that can mean several kinds of musical instruments.
The word comes from the Greek ὄργανον organon, which means "organ", "instrument", or "tool".
Most organs are played using keyboards, one or more of which may be played using the feet.
They are found and used in churches, concert halls, and even in theatres, especially older movie theatres or cinemas.
Pipe organs are the most common kind of organ, and many people mean this kind of organ when they use the word "organ".
They sound different notes when air flows through pipes of different lengths and types.
They take up a lot of room, and the noise they make are meant to fill large spaces.
The earliest pipe organs were water organs, which were powered by the flow of water, sometimes from a natural resource or using a pump.
Later ones used foot pedals or hand cranks to pump a bellows, which in turn produces the air that goes through the pipes.
These kinds of organs are still made today, and are called harmoniums.
Today's pipe organs ones use an electric motor to move air, and some, like those in theaters, play different instruments as well.
The Wurlitzer company was well known for making instruments that make different sounds.
Mechanical organ
Mechanical organs have a mechanism that controls which notes are played and when they are played.
One type of mechanical organ is the barrel organ, which usually get their music printed on cardboard sheets, although some use piano rolls or a barrel similar to that of a carillon or music box.
Mechanical organs can be all shapes and sizes.
The smaller barrel organs are often heard on streets in Europe and is a common way of getting money from people who pass by.
These types are sometimes called hurdy gurdies, but this is not true.
Larger barrel organs can be found on fairgrounds and are loud so that they can be heard above all the other noise at a fair.
Meanwhile, smaller barrel organs can be found indoors, and play songs when someone puts in a coin, similar to a slot machine.
Some clocks have barrel organ mechanisms that play music at certain times, such as every hour.
The electronic organ is one of the newest types of organ.
They use electronics to simulate the sound of a pipe organ and many other instruments.
Because of this, they do not need to be very big and many are no bigger than a piano so that they can fit in homes, schools, or can be moved around as needed.
They also do not go out of tune because it holds all its sounds on computerized chips.
Many organists think they do not feel as good to play as a traditional, mechanical pipe-organ.
There are electronic organs that look and sound like those played in churches, and even many churches use electronic organs when they do not have the money or space for a full pipe organ.
The best-known electronic organs include the Hammond organ heard in jazz, and other organs, like those made by the Japanese company Yamaha, are in fact synthesizers that can sound like a whole orchestra playing together.
These types of organs are often used for music education, especially in Asia.
Human twins are two people that shared the during a single pregnancy, and one is normally born quickly after the first.
Because of the size of the uterus,
Types of twins
There are 2 types of twins.
Fraternal twins
Fraternal twins are also known as "non-identical twins" or dizygotic twins.
They happen when two ova are released from the ovary at the same time, and each is fertilized by a different sperm.
This results in the birth of fraternal twins.
They can be of different sexes.
Genetically, they are no more similar than any two siblings.
Identical twins or monozygotic twins: A single ovum is fertilized to form one zygote.
This zygote later splits, and each half of the zygote becomes a twin.
The twins have the same genes.
There are five variations of twinning that occur commonly.
The frequency varies in different populations.
