Fishing In Chad
Fishing is the activity of trying to catch fish. Fish are often caught as wildlife from the natural environment (freshwater or marine), but may also be caught from stocked bodies of water such as ponds, canals, park wetlands and reservoirs. Fishing techniques include trawling, longlining, jigging, hand-gathering, spearing, netting, angling, shooting and trapping, as well as more destructive and often illegal techniques such as electrocution, blasting and poisoning. The term fishing broadly includes catching aquatic animals other than fish, such as crustaceans (shrimp/lobsters/crabs), shellfish, cephalopods (octopus/squid) and echinoderms (starfish/sea urchins). The term is not normally applied to harvesting fish raised in controlled cultivations (fish farming). Nor is it normally applied to hunting aquatic mammals, where terms like whaling and sealing are used instead. Fishing has been an important part of human culture since hunter-gatherer times. It is one of the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Banda (state)
Banda was a princely state centered in Banda, in modern-day Uttar Pradesh, India. It was disestablished due to its participation in the Indian Rebellion of 1857. The former region controlled by Banda state had a population of 698,608 people in 1881. History The founder of Banda was Ali Bahadur I. He was a grandson of the Peshwa Bajirao and son of Shamsher Bahadur. Bahadur managed to carve an independent principality for himself. However, the short-lived state ceased to exist after it participated in the unsuccessful Indian Rebellion of 1857. Its last ruler Ali Bahadur II was deposed, and the state was annexed by the British Raj and they appointed a ''taluqdar'' from Awadh to govern the area.

Spirit Duplicator
A spirit duplicator (also Rexograph and Ditto machine in North America, Banda machine and Fordigraph machine in the U.K. and Australia) is a printing method invented in 1923 by Wilhelm Ritzerfeld, which was used for most of the 20th century. The term "spirit duplicator" refers to the alcohols that were the principal solvents used in generating copies. Spirit duplicators were used mainly by schools, churches, clubs, and other small organizations, such as in the production of fanzines, because of the limited number of copies one could make from an original, along with the low cost (and corresponding low quality) of copying. The spirit duplicator coexisted alongside the mimeograph and the hectograph, devices with a similar purpose but different operation. History The spirit duplicator was invented in 1923 by Wilhelm Ritzerfeld. The best-known manufacturer in the United States and the world was Ditto Corporation of Illinois. Copiers in the United Kingdom were commonly manufact ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Banda (opera)
In opera, a ''banda'' (Italian for ''band'') refers to a musical ensemble (normally of wind instruments) which is used in addition to the main orchestra and plays the music which is actually heard by the characters in the opera. A ''banda sul palco'' (band on the stage) was prominently used in Rossini's Neapolitan operas. Verdi used the term ''banda'' to refer to a ''banda sul palco'', as in the score for ''Rigoletto''. He used the term ''banda interna'' (internal band), to refer to a band which is still separate from the orchestra but heard from the off-stage wings. The early scores of '' La traviata'' use a ''banda interna''. Origins Diegetic depictions of music making are present in the earliest operatic depictions of Orpheus accompanying himself but larger onstage ensembles seem to have first appeared in ''Don Giovanni'', most spectacularly in the polymetric Act I ball where the wind ''Harmonie'' is joined by two violin-and-bass bands to simultaneously accompany minuet, contra ...
