![]() ![]() In 1914, the United Kingdom’s Royal Navy adopted the 24-hour clock. The Egyptians later combined night and day into equal parts measured in hours, which created the first 24-hour clock. Their timekeeping has strong similarities to the proportionate, 12-hour clock used today, which we divide into ante meridiem (a.m.) and post meridiem (p.m.) to indicate times before and after midday. This means the Egyptians used two separate clocks, dividing day and night into two disproportionate parts. During the day, they used the sun to measure time. The Egyptians measured night and day independently. ![]() To balance out the seasons, the ancient Egyptians added five extra days each year to create a 365-day year. A year comprised 36 weeks for each of the 36 constellations. Decans consist of 36 small constellations that ancient Egyptians used to measure time at night when they could no longer use the sun.Įvery 10 days, one of these constellations helically rose in prominence to give the ancient Egyptians a 10-day week. In 2100 B.C.E., Egyptians notated decans on coffin lids. What time is it in military time? Add 12 to all times after noon. To convert 1600 military time to civilian time, subtract 12 from 16 to get 4. Military time conversion is so easy you don’t need a military time converter. To convert military time back to civilian time, simply subtract 12 from any numbers after noon (1200). in civilian time, that’s 1613 (sixteen hundred thirteen hours) in military time. 2400 or 0000 (twenty-four hundred hours or zero hundred hours).Military time uses a 24-hour clock while civilian time uses a 12-hour clock.īecause military time also uses different notations than civilian time, people need to familiarize themselves with that notation style to understand and use military time.

![]() ![]() The Marshall Emberton II waterproof speaker stands out in this crowded product category by rocking an incredibly cool design inspired by the audio maker’s iconic guitar amplifiers. ![]() Ready to find the ultimate waterproof Bluetooth speaker? Learn more about our favorite picks at every price point. An app can also allow you to update your speaker's firmware and potentially expand its capabilities. So are app-enabled tools for customizing the speaker's sound for specific content and usage scenarios and adjusting its settings, among many others. The futureproof connector will allow you to power up your audio gadget using the same cable as your laptop, tablet, or Android phone.Īdditional cool features such as built-in lights and the ability to charge your phone or other gadgets are also worth considering. The charging connector your next waterproof speaker has is also crucial, and I highly recommend looking for products with a USB-C port. Most of the best waterproof speakers can easily blast a day's worth of tunes with power to spare. This will ensure that the device can entertain you during a daily outing. Regarding battery life, the absolute minimum you should consider before buying a waterproof speaker is 10 hours. Ideally, you should choose a versatile speaker capable of handling more than just exposure to water to increase its lifespan. An IP rating means that the product can handle water and dust, while the IPX rating attests that a speaker has only been rated for exposure to water. DurabilityĮvery speaker on our list has an official rating for water resistance (some can even float on the surface), and it is important to know the difference between an IP and an IPX moniker. If you plan to make the gadget a true party centerpiece, consider an offering capable of delivering multidirectional, 360-degree audio. For our top pick, we selected a product that can deliver high-quality stereo sound to the listeners in front of it. When it comes to sound, the more audio drivers a speaker packs, the more detail-rich and entertaining sound it will deliver. Regardless of the type of outing you take it on, a high-quality product should be able to deliver a stellar sonic experience for many hours between charges. Sound, durability, and battery life are the most important bits to consider when shopping for a waterproof speaker. ![]() Learn more about how we test products, from the questions we ask our testing team, to the types of products we feel are actually worth testing, to the overall time we put in to our testing process. Ease of use and additional attributes - evaluating the product's controls' layout and tactility, any supplemental features it offers, and, when available, app-enabled functionality.Battery performance - observing how many hours' worth of wireless playback the device is capable of and its charging methods.Sound quality - evaluating the ability of each speaker to deliver audible bass, treble, and mid-range, come rain or shine.The last-mentioned bit is essential for using such a gadget at the beach, while camping, or in a backyard or garden. Design and durability - focusing on the product's build and ability to survive exposure to the elements, including water and dirt/sand.I spent at least a week testing each speaker in this guide using the following criteria: ![]() Our process included reading reviews from other tech publications, sifting through consumer feedback, and consulting with industry experts. Translation? We made sure these speakers would be able to adapt to new developments for years to come. For this update, we looked for options with the most futureproof specs. I've been researching and testing waterproof Bluetooth speakers for years. ![]() ![]() ![]() In the near future it will be even easier if the number of fast charging location keep on increasing. And they all loved traveling this way, also because of the things we did together during the charging sessions (playing football, volleyball or buying an ICE cream of course). Yes! Of course I also first asked my family this same question. 2.3 m3 of Antarctic Ice won’t melt due to the avoided CO2 emissions (!). 8 solar panels have to produce green energy to compensate it, or… It needs 38 trees to grow a year to compensate this, or… ![]() How to visualize 765 kilo of CO2 emissions? ![]() This would have caused 765 kilo of CO2 emissions (source: > 2,784 KG p/liter). With the Outlander we would need approximately 275 liter of petrol. Compared to an ICE car we avoided emitting CO2 emissions. We really liked it, but if you are used to drive as fast as you can (also while towing a caravan), I can imagine it feels like ages.Īvoiding CO2 emissions with an Zero Emission holiday road tripįor me, this was the most important reason to travel with the full electric car. One thing is sure, after a long day of driving with an EV, we were less exhausted because of the several charging stops. I think it is very personal how 4.6 hours feels like. Or, it takes 2.3 hours extra to get to the South of France. This means travelling with an full EV means an increase of 4.6 hours during the 2 x 1.100 kilometer EV road trip. If you add some lunch time and coffee break to these stops at the gas station, I think we would need 4 hours during the whole trip. With the Outlander, we would have to fill up the car 6 times (range with a caravan behind the car is approximately 300 kilometer). But 3 charging sessions took place at the campsite, so should I even count this as a charging stop/charging time? To avoid any discussion I did. We had to charge 8.6 hours during the whole trip (2,200 kilometer). We drove with the same speed as we always do (95/100 km/h). When you want to compare the travel time between the EV and PHEV, the only difference are the charging sessions. Charging at home, office or even slow public charging makes a huge difference. Not a massive difference, cost wise? The reason for this can be found in the fact we only used fast chargers. If we would have travelled with the Outlander PHEV, we would have payed € 653,25 for the same road trip. In total, so traveling to France and back again, the costs of charging were € 521,45. Therefore I was able to compare the costs of towing the caravan with an EV or ICE car quite exactly. Normally, we tow our caravan with an Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. Yes, I know a lot of you don’t have the same mindset (yet!). And that’s okay! We are on holiday, so let’s also enjoy the traveling itself. Once you get used to this, in our opinion it is not a real issue. Therefore, the average leg between the charging stops is around 150 kilometer. But, at this moment the fast chargers are not located exactly every 200 kilometers during your road trip. An EV with a trailer doubles the consumption of the car. The first question many people asked me: what is the real range of this combination? I would say: 200 kilometer, or even better: two hour drive and 30 minute coffee, lunch, relaxing time. Can you imagine what happened if we run out of electricity even before our first charging stop? We preferred to have our breakfast stop without any stress and hassle. To avoid stress in the car and making sure my marriage would last this summer holiday, we decided to charge at this drive through fast charging location. Our first stop was at Fastned Peutie-West, we didn’t really need to charge yet, but I didn’t know if we had to climb after Brussels or not. During this first day we only had to disconnect the caravan once while charging, which surprised me to be honest. We left at 06:00 am and we managed to travel 800 kilometers on the first day! It took us 13 hours including charging to get to the campsite in Macon, our first overnight stop. I had been busy preparing a solid travel plan, using several apps and even using a physical road map again where I marked the fast chargers with a large cross. But to be honest: this time it felt like a throwback in time. Normally I would say: hey Mercedes, please navigate me to…. With a positive mindset and fully convinced we could make it to the South of France, we left on an early Sunday morning. And as often, that was my trigger to just do it! Destination: the South of France where the sun always shines! A lot of people said to me: that is impossible, you won’t reach the campsite for sure. This summer we hooked our caravan to the full EV Mercedes EQC. ![]() ![]() ![]() In some cases, it is possible to contain invasive species at the site where the initial introduction occurred and eradicate the population before it has the opportunity to spread beyond the limits of the area where eradication measures are effective ( Steck et al., 2019). Not all new species introductions become invasive, however, species that become invasive in a new environment can have profound effects on industry, agriculture, and conservation lands within the new location where they become established ( Paini et al., 2016).Įradication of invasive species is often impractical once they have become established ( Britton et al., 2011). Whether or not a species becomes invasive depends on the characteristics of both its life history traits and the environment in which it is introduced. According to United States Executive Order 13112 of Febru(Invasive Species), invasive species are defined as “an alien species whose introduction does or is likely to cause economic or environmental harm or harm to human health” (Executive Order 13112, 1999). The opinions expressed and arguments employed in this publication are the sole responsibility of the authors and do not necessarily reflect those of the OECD or of the governments of its Member countries.Īs global trade increases the transfer of goods and commodities around the world, it leads to the movement of species from their native ranges to new locations where they become invasive. The different approaches will be compared with respect to the efficiency each affords as a genetic biocontrol tool, the practical utility and cost/benefits associated with implementation of the approach, and the regulatory considerations that will need to be addressed for each. The review considers four different approaches to genetic biocontrol for invasive species sterile-release, YY Males, Trojan Female Technique, and gene drive. This review provides an overview of the state of genetic biocontrol, focusing on several approaches that were the subject of presentations at the Genetic Biocontrol for Invasive Species Workshop in Tarragona, Spain, March 31st, 2019, a workshop sponsored by the OECD’s Co-operative Research Program on Biological Resource Management for Sustainable Agricultural Systems. While these methods offer the potential to control or even eradicate invasive species, there is a need to ensure that genetic biocontrol methods can be deployed in a way that minimizes potential harm to the environment. ![]() Genetic biocontrol can be defined as the release of organisms with genetic methods designed to disrupt the reproduction of invasive populations. Prevention of new introductions is a high priority for addressing the harm caused by invasive species, but unfortunately efforts to prevent new introductions do not address the economic harm that is presently manifested where invasive species have already become established. As a result of global trade, invasive species are often introduced into new environments where they become established and cause harm to human health, agriculture, and the environment. Invasive species are increasingly affecting agriculture, food, fisheries, and forestry resources throughout the world.
![]() ![]() This also means that after a power outage, the filter will automatically restart itself. The self-priming pump means there's no need to fill the filter basket with water, start a siphon, monitor the filter, or any of the other headaches of starting a new filter. The basket is fully removable and snaps into the lid of the filter for easy and drip-free transit to a sink or hose for cleaning. The redirected water pushes up the blue maintenance alert on the top of the filter, signaling that the filter needs to be cleaned. When this happens in Tidal™ filters, water is redirected around the filter and back into the aquarium through an outlet on the side. Over time, filtration media can become clogged with detritus reducing or obstructing the flow of water through it. Heater holderĪ heater can be attached to the side with an optional heater clip, allowing for better dispersal of heated water through the aquarium. Easily adjust how much flow comes from the underwater intake pipe versus the surface skimmer with the intake flow dial. With Tidal's dual intake, it pulls water in through the telescoping pipe below the surface and at the surface through the surface skimmer. The surface skimmer will capture the water from just below the surface, where excreted fish oils accumulate, as well as deeper in the tank removing floating debris. Adjust using the dial on the front, for a powerful full flow rate of 450 gallons per hour on the Tidal 110 down to a gentle 90 gallons per hour on the same filter. Fully adjustable flow regulationįully adjustable flow regulation adjusts performance to a specific aquarium volume, type, or provide an environment for fish which prefer more or less water movement or oxygenation.

Learn the sounds that your detector makes before trying to pass over targets. At first, you should really dig every target, regardless of what it sounds like or what you think it might be. It can be easy to get lazy and start depending too much on your detectors discrimination features so that you don’t have to dig so many holes. This can seem overwhelming for a beginner (and even experienced) detectorists. There may be hundreds or even thousands of iron trash targets for every piece of detectable gold. Many goldfields are absolutely littered with iron rubbish rusty nails, boot tacks, bullets, old cans, miscellaneous iron fragments, etc. ![]() This will help you shorten your learning curve significantly. Learn all the features of your detector and how it works inside and out. The operator’s manual is the most important “accessory” that comes with your detector. This one seems so simple, but it is amazing how often beginners overlook this critical step. Read the Manual and learn how your detector works Each gold detector will have its own method for ground balancing. In order to hear a gold nugget amongst all the other sounds that this mineralized ground can cause, it is important to ground balance your detector to tune out these other sounds. It will cause your metal detector to operate very noisy and erratically. One of the biggest challenges associated with gold detecting is the highly mineralized ground found in most goldfields. Learn how to properly tune and ground balance your detector If you are serious about finding gold nuggets with a metal detector, then get a detector that is specifically designed for hunting for gold.Ģ. Detectors that are designed for finding coins and relics rarely work well for gold. There are hundreds of different metal detectors on the market, and almost ALL of them will perform poorly for gold prospecting. Use a detector specifically designed for finding gold Nonetheless, there are a few tips that will help shorten the learning curve, and might help you find that first nugget.ġ. Hard work and determination are the real “secret” to success in gold prospecting. There is really no big secret that makes someone a successful nugget shooter. In fact, it is not uncommon for even a determined beginner to take several years before they find their first nugget. Many of the most successful gold detectorists will tell you that it took significant trial-and-error before they became proficient at finding nuggets with a metal detector. The highly mineralized ground associated with most goldfields, along with trashy iron rubbish and the overall rarity of detectable sized gold nuggets makes finding with a metal detector a serious challenge. Prospecting for gold with a metal detector is one of the most challenging and rewarding ways to search for gold. ![]() ![]() ![]() One annoyance I'm having is Iron Maiden, it looks and plays great, but for some reason the left flipper button on the alp causes the table lighting to change so the lighting modes are constantly flickering and going dark, changing tint, etc. Can't figure out whats up with that table and no one seems to notice?
