City farming, also called urban farming, is growing a kitchen garden () in a city.
This has been practiced as long as there have been cities.
Other names include "pea-patching", victory gardening and foodscaping.
City "farms"
Food is grown in a city setting for the use of an individual or family as well as for the community.
This is not the same as the back-to-the-land movements of the 1970s.
It is mainly about the little family farm inside the city.
Land use in cities is subject to local land laws.
Where permitted city farms may be anything from small window boxes to shared community gardens.
Urban farmers can grow food for their own use.
They can also sell excess crops directly to stores or at a farmers' market.
City farms can also be nonprofit operations that grow food for poor and homeless people.
Many city farms grow organic foods.
These are from plants that do not use chemical fertilizers or pesticides.
City farming also includes food growing cooperatives.
They provide the opportunity to get involved in agriculture in their own city.
In Brisbane, Australia a community group took a  city park that flooded regularly and changed it to an organic city farm.
Called Northey Street City Farm, people of all ages and backgrounds work together to grow food.
Fruits, vegetables, herbs and flowers are grown.
Ponds were introduced to attract beneficial insects, frogs and birds which help in pest control.
City farming allows people to save money growing and harvesting their own food.
It allows many individuals and families to make an income selling the food they grow.
It helps the cities by recycling organic waste into compost and soil.
It takes vacant lots and turns them into green spaces.
Shared garden space or community gardens provide a sense of working together.
People, especially children, learn stewardship (planning and managing resources).
Kids learn responsiblity and work ethics.
They are also eager to try new foods when they see them grown in their own gardens.
In some countries, gardens are grown on rooftops or on pavement.
In some places land around public schools is made available for gardens.
This benefits the school by providing food for school lunches.
It also allows children to learn about growing their own food.
Victory gardens
Victory gardens were city farms that sprang up during World War I and World War II.
There were food shortages in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and Germany.
In the US alone, victory gardens provided 40% of the produce used during World War II.
In addition to farms, gardens were grown in window boxes, rooftops, back yards and vacant yards.
Victory gardens gave the people at home a sense of  doing their part for the war effort.
Women in England tended to grow ornamental gardens.
This made for an easy shift towards food gardening.
Women in the US had a cultural identity with the British and also grew ornamental gardens.
But there were stereotypes to working in agricultural jobs in the US.
But these were quickly overcome.
Victory gardens were not uncommon even among upper classes in America.

Provincial cities (), sometimes translated provincial municipalities, are cities lesser in rank than special municipalities of the Republic of China (Taiwan).
They are directly governed by provinces and are one level above the most basic county-controlled cities.
In the early 20th century a provincial municipality was described as one having a population of over 200,000.
However, if the city was important in politics, economics or culture it had to be over 100,000.
After relocating the government to Taiwan the Republic of China government raised the limit to 500,000 in 1981.
It was later raised again to 600,000.
Currently, the Local Government Act of the Ministry of the Interior applies for the creation of a provincial city.
In this case a city needs to have a population between 500,000 and 1,250,000.
It must also have major political, economical and cultural roles.

Mort & Phil (Mortadelo y Filemón in Spanish) is a Spanish comics series designed in 1958 by Francisco Ibáñez.
It's one of the most popular comics in Spain.
Its first title was Mortadelo y Filemón: Agencia de Información.
It was just the main characters.
Every comics strip had from one to four pages.
Throughout the years, the characters have evolved.
At first, Mortadelo used to wear a bowler hat.
He used to wear some disguises.
He was known for his shapeshifter abilities.
However Ibáñez went to leave the hat on therefore Mortadelo get disguise inmmediately.
The other one, Filemón, called by Mortadelo as "Jefe" (Chief or Boss in English) had a beaked nose and use to smoke pipe as Sherlock Holmes used to do.
Their names are wordplay.
For example: Mortadelo comes from Mortadela ("Mortadella di Bologna") and Filemón from Filete ("Steak").
In 1969, Ibáñez designed more characters.
He also "founded" the TIA.
The Técnicos de Investigación Aeroterráquea: "Aeroterrestrial Investigation Technicians") is an organisation that is a spoof on the CIA.
With those changes, the comics books were much longer (44-48 pages by comic book).
These editions were more satirical in regard to Spanish and international themes such as politics and political corruption (El atasco de influencias), ETA's terrorism (Barcelona '92) where the terrorist group were named as "TETA"  ("TITS"), and "PEPA" in España '82, and the islamic one (Terroristas or El balón catastrófico) or economics (¡Llegó el Euro!)
Later, others sources pointed to Novísimas aventuras de Sherlock Holmes by Enrique Jardiel Poncela or Laurel and Hardy.
The comics books are known for its slapstick comedy.
It is not unusual to see the characters being injuried or hurt.
They have caused several accidents.
For example, falling from a fifth floor window and staying alive.
Is often enough to see own Ibáñez breaking the fourth wall when he's designed by himself.
In 1992 was the 35th Mort and Phils anniversary, so he made an special edition tittled El 35 aniversario.
In it, Ibáñez explained how was his childhood and his career went when began to work in Ediciones Bruguera (nowadays: Ediciones B), Barcelona, Spain.
He explained it with a burlesque point of view.
He also told how Mortadelo and Filemón met each other.
That edition had a huge success among its fans.
It was not until 2001, a few days after the September 11 terrorist attacks that the last page (and vignette) called the readers attention to the tragedy.
It was noted also in television media, because in the vignette's background (a common gag made by Ibáñez in all his works) there was a plane that crashed into the World Trade Center, in New York, in the United States.
Since its official website stated "that scene was designed as it and it wasn't retouched".
Regarding the attacks: "it was a tragical coincidence".
Mort (Mortadelo): He's tall and bald.
When he was young he had a long hair, but lost it after tested an experimental growning-hair made by Pr.
Bacterio.
However was bald already on the first stories.
Since that "incident", Mortadelo became to have hard feelings about him, even got burn Bacterio's beard with a blowtorch as "prank" (i. e. vengenace).
He's also known as "Master of Disguises" cause his ability for disguising for every situation.
Phil (Filemón) As Mortadelo, he's bald too, but has two hairs.
He's called "Chief" by Mortadelo.
He's known by his temperamental way, specially when is victim by his subordinate's mistakes.
Despite this, both are good friends.
Superintendente Vicente or Super: He's their boss and TIA's supervisor and General Director's subordinate.
He's dress always a blue jacket.
He's an overweighted person with a huge moustache, those characteristics make him target of all pranks and mockeries from his employees, specially Mortadelo and Filemón, whom called him as a "walrus".
As Filemón does, he has (inclusive much) a huge bad temperament.
He just to appear in several surrealist gags when he tries to take his agents back when they runaway, for example: Antartica.
Bacterio: He's the TIA's scientist.
He's known by his huge black beard that arrive until his chest.
He's negligent at his work due all his inventions fails or makes disasters.
Bacterio is an other gag of the series due to Mortadelo and Filemon runaway to him or he is catch of they pranks or assaults.
His name comes from "Bacteria"
Mrs. Ofelia (Srta.
Ofelia): She's Super's secretary.
As her boss, she's overweighted too and self-conscious with her fit being her weight another joke into the comics.
Besides Super, she tends to be more polite to Mortadelo and Filemon although get pissed when she's insulted by they.
In fact, she's in love by Mortadelo dismay be an "unrequited heart", that's one of most reasons why she's feel jealous with Mrs. Irma.
Mrs. Irma''' (Srta Irma): She was the second secretary.
Her first appear was in 1987 in Terroristas as a supervisor in an anti-terrorist missión where Mortadelo and Filemon were members in order to arrest an islamic cell whom pretend help their member to scape after a failed attack against US Embassy.
Irma is Ophelia's opposite: she is fit and atractive.
These characteristics makes the male agents lost their minds for her, specially Mortadelo and Filemon.
In response, Ofelia gets jealous sometimes.
Regardless this, they have been good friends due she can able to hold off the agents.
This character was based on the publisher's (of the German edition) secretary who died in 1990, therefore Irma was "retired" as her mourning, although she reappeared in the 2014 movie.

Sea glass and beach glass are pieces of glass worn smooth by waves.
Technically, "Sea glass" is glass found on beaches along bodies of salt water.
As the glass reaches the shoreline pounding waves and rocks break it into smaller pieces.
The sharp edges are worn smooth.
Salt water erodes the glass and gives it a frosted appearance. "
Beach glass" comes from fresh water.
It is found mainly along coastlines and the shores of large lakes.
However many feel sea glass and beach glass are the same thing.
White, emerald green and brown are the most common colors.
They came from jars, plain bottles and beer bottles thrown into the water.
Olive green, cobalt blue, aqua and amber are harder to find.
They came from medicine bottles, soda bottles and cosmetic jars.
The rarest colors are red, orange and yellow.
They were originally items such as fine china, streetlamps and even ship lanterns.
Many colors are unique to certain periods of history.
Small bubbles in the glass help to identify the original glass item.
Collectors walk beaches to find sea glass.
After plastic became popular for containers it became harder to find sea glass.
Sea glass can take from 7 to 10 years to get a frosted appearance.
In many places winter seems to be the best time to find sea glass.
Experienced sea glass hunters look for periods of low tide to start looking.
Beaches that are cleaned of debris regularly won't produce much sea glass.
Hunters look for "dirty beaches" that are left alone and have litter.

Baseball and Cricket are two similar sports.
They are both considered bat-and-ball games and are played by both men and women.
But they also have many differences.
They have different rules, terms and organization.
Their histories are both similar yet different.
Common history?
Baseball is often thought to have descended from cricket.
They both can be traced back to England.
They have common terms such as innings, umpires, runs and outs.
So the connection seems very logical.
Even some baseball historians think cricket is the ancestor of baseball.
Both games do have a link, but it is not a parent-child link.
It is more on the order of cousins.
Both seem to have been brought to England by people from Flanders, but who settled in different parts of England.
There each game developed separately.
Cricket came from the southeast of England while baseball was played in western England.
Baseball started as a children's game while Cricket was more often played by adults.
Both games came to America with English immigrants.
By the 1840s cricket had a following along the East Coast, particularly in Philadelphia and New York.
About the same time Baseball began being organized into clubs.
Up until the American Civil War cricket was more popular.
After that war baseball became widely popular.
Cricket is still played in places like Philadelphia.
Both are bat and ball games.
Both have batsman and bowlers, called batters and pitchers in baseball.
Bowlers or pitchers throw the ball to the batsman or batter who hits the ball.
Players in the field try to catch the ball.
Both games at times use two umpires.
Both games involve batters who run between or around things (such as each batsman's ground) to score runs (points), while the fielding team tries to get the ball to those things (bases), or things within the things (wickets), or fielders near them, to stop runs from being scored.
Batters can hit the ball out of the field to score runs (home run or six runs).
After enough batters are out, both teams change roles, and after enough opportunities for both teams to bat, the team with more runs wins.
The bat in cricket is flat while the bat in baseball is round.
Cricket has eleven players while baseball has nine.
Cricket players hold the bat down, baseball players hold the bat up.
The playing fields are different sizes and shapes.
The balls, while similar in construction, are slightly different in weight.
The leather cover in baseball is white while cricket balls can have a red or white leather cover.

Ventnor () is a seaside resort and civil parish on the south coast of the Isle of Wight, England.
It was established in the Victorian era.
Ventnor lies underneath St Boniface Down.
At  it is the highest point on the Isle of Wight.
Ventnor is built on steep slopes and cliffs leading down to the sea.
The higher part is called Upper Ventnor.
The lower part is simply known as Ventnor.
Ventnor is sometimes understood as including the coastal villages of St. Lawrence to one side and Bonchurch to the other.
The sheltered location on the cliff of the Island's south coast means the area experiences a microclimate.
It has more sunny days than much of the British Isles, and fewer frosts.
This has allowed many species of subtropical plant to grow here.
Ventnor Botanic Garden is particularly notable.
Diplomatics is a discipline which is concerned with the analysis of historical documents.
The word goes back to diploma, which literally means folded (document).
Using the term diplomatics for this science is probably due to a work called De re diplomatica, by Jean Mabilon (1632-1707).
Note also, that the term is unrelated to diplomacy.
The discipline originally evolved as a tool for studying and determining the authenticity of the official charters and diplomas issued by royal and papal chanceries.
It was later found that many of the same underlying principles could be applied to other types of official document and legal instrument, to non-official documents such as private letters, and, most recently, to the metadata of electronic records.
Diplomatics is one of the auxiliary sciences of history.
