![]() In 1947, it was suggested to group the Chinese alligator in a separate genus from its American relative, due to the Chinese alligator's bony plate on its upper eyelid. Fauvel wrote a detailed description of the species in a book titled Alligators in China: Their History, Description & Identification, including information about its historical account. The genus Alligator had previously contained only the American alligator since its creation in 1807. The Chinese alligator was described by French naturalist Albert-Auguste Fauvel in 1879 as Alligator sinensis though Fauvel only noticed mentions of them in Chinese literature since about 222–227 CE. I can not, of course, guess its species but I nevertheless think the fact worth recording, as evidence that a species of this group does occur in China. They made so much money by showing it that they refused to sell it. It was a young crocodile about four feet long, which they kept in tepid water. In February, 1869, some Chinese were exhibiting in the native city of Shanghai what they called a dragon, which they declared had been dug out of a hole in the province of Shense. In 1869, Robert Swinhoe saw a Chinese alligator in an exhibit in Shanghai and wrote the following year: Chinese alligators were later thought to give Buddhist priests merit if the priests were to buy alligators held in captivity and release them. Unlike Polo, Martini wrote his description using information from Chinese literature. In 1656, Martino Martini, a priest, wrote that the Chinese alligator lived in the river Yangtze and was "much feared by the local residents". He stated that it was found in lakes, rivers, and springs in the province "Karazan". ![]() He said that the alligator lived in "caverns" in the day and hunted at night, and that humans targeted its meat and skin, with its gall bladder having multiple medical purposes. Marco Polo was the first person outside of China to write about the alligator, when he came to China and saw it in the late 1200s. Many pieces of evidence suggest that the Chinese alligator was an inspiration for the Chinese dragon.Ĭhinese alligators were mentioned in Chinese literature very early for example, in the Classic of Poetry, whose poems were composed between the 11th and 7th centuries BCE. In some writings, the Chinese alligator has been associated with the Chinese dragon. In the late 1200s, Marco Polo became the first person outside of China to write about it. The Chinese alligator has been a part of Chinese literature since the third century. Listed as critically endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature, multiple conservation actions have been taking place for this species. The population in the wild was about 1,000 in the 1970s, decreased to below 130 in 2001, and grew after 2003, with its population being about 300 as of 2017. Originally living as far away from its current range as Japan, the species previously had a wide range and population, but beginning in 5000 BC, multiple threats, such as habitat destruction, caused the species' population and range to decline. Living in bodies of fresh water, the Chinese alligator's range is restricted to six regions in the province of Anhui, as well as possibly the provinces of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Captive specimens have reached age 70, and wild specimens can live past 50. A vocal species, adults bellow during the mating season and young vocalize to communicate with their parents and other juveniles. The species is an opportunistic feeder, primarily eating fish and invertebrates. Mating occurs in early summer, with females most commonly producing 20–30 eggs, which are smaller than those of any other crocodilian. It brumates in burrows in winter and is nocturnal in summer. Dark gray or black in color with a fully armored body, the Chinese alligator grows to 1.5–2.1 metres (5–7 ft) in length and weighs 36–45 kilograms (80–100 lb) as an adult. ![]() mississippiensis) are the only living species in the genus Alligator of the family Alligatoridae.

There are five different screens in the game, each featuring a distinct scheme of platforms (the fifth has no platforms at all). Other similar bonuses are the B (Bonus) which increases the score multiplier (up to 5x), the E (Extra) which gives an extra life, and the rare S (Special), which awards a free game.

To find success on YouTube, the ability to make great content is a given. And that click shows the power of impressions data. Once a viewer loses interest, they will click a ‘Recommended Video’ with an appealing thumbnail and title. As any YouTuber with scale can tell you, a significant portion of viewers will not watch a video until the end. YouTube views are heavily driven by ‘Recommended Videos’. When you launch a primetime network show, your lead-in show is key because a significant portion of your audience will continue watching the same channel after a show has ended. YouTube viewership, more so than television, is driven by deliberate choices. In other words, impressions data tells the story of how well your content indexes within the YouTube algorithm and whether viewers who saw your thumbnail and title deemed them ‘clickworthy’. The ‘Impressions’ click-through rate’ measures how many times a surfaced-thumbnail results in a video view. The ‘Impressions’ metric shows how many times your thumbnail was seen by a viewer. For the purposes of this writing, I’ll call it being ‘clickworthy’. Even Webster’s Dictionary has to throw in a barb within the definition: “something (such as a headline) designed to make readers want to click on a hyperlink especially when the link leads to content of dubious value or interest.”īut there’s no other word for a title and thumbnail on YouTube that perfectly demands to be clicked, then leads to content of incredible value. I can’t talk about the importance of impressions data without talking about clickbait. In the YouTube Studio beta, now accessible through all YouTube accounts within Creator Studio, you can access a metric called ‘Impressions’ (in the ‘Reach Viewers’ tab within ‘Analytics’). Yesterday I half watched a rerun of ‘Friends’ and lean-in, hang-on- to-every-word watched an episode of ‘The Americans’ (I know…I’m behind…) If I was watched these on YouTube there would be two very different levels of engagement yet both would register as one view. Viewers are far more likely to subscribe than unsubscribe, which means it’s just a metric of how many people liked you historically, not how many like you now.

Two-player rules have been created and are playable without the need for an alternate board.

Resources are common so that if one player builds a rail line (which requires coal) they have to use the coal from the nearest source, which may be an opponent's coal mine, which in turn gets that coal mine closer to scoring (i.e., being utilized).īrass: Lancashire, the 2018 edition from Roxley Games, reboots the original Warfrog Games edition of Brass with new artwork and components, as well as a few rules changes: ![]() This leads to a strategic timing/storing of cards. The cards limit where you can build your industries, but any card can be used for the develop, sell cotton or build connections actions. ![]() At the end of the rail phase, another scoring round takes place, then a winner is crowned. During this phase, players may now occupy more than one location in a city and a double-connection build (though expensive) is possible. After scoring, all canals and all of the lowest level industries are removed for the game, after which new cards are dealt and the rail phase begins. This turn order mechanism opens some strategic options for players going later in the turn order, allowing for the possibility of back-to-back turns.Īfter all the cards have been played the first time (with the deck size being adjusted for the number of players), the canal phase ends and a scoring round commences. ![]() Turn order is determined by how much money a player spent on the previous turn, from lowest spent first to highest spent. Each round, players take turns according to the turn order track, receiving two actions to perform any of the following:Īt the end of a player's turn, they replace the two cards they played with two more from the deck. VPs are gained from your canals, rails, and established (flipped) industry tiles. To win the game, score the most victory points (VPs), which are counted at the end of each half. The game is played over two halves: the canal phase and the rail phase. You must develop, build, and establish your industries and network so that you can capitalize demand for iron, coal and cotton. Brass: Lancashire - first published as Brass - is an economic strategy game that tells the story of competing cotton entrepreneurs in Lancashire during the industrial revolution. ![]() ![]() The company distinguished by the image of the man with the fish on his back, knew how to reinvent for good a recipe that was believed to be unbeatable. It was this that earned him public acceptance.īy the 1890s, Scott had boosted his brand internationally. What was revolutionary about Scott was not the cod liver oil, which by those years was already well known in the UK due to Nordic influences, but its taste, more tolerable than that of its competitors. Scott left England for New York with his partner Samuel W. Scott's Emulsion has a long tradition dating back to the late 19th century, when in 1873 Alfred B. However, this mixture does preserve its chemical properties, in which vitamins A and D are combined with the fatty acids that are in this fish oil, the Omega 3 par excellence. It shares its flavor and texture on the palate, but its color, which is rather whitish, does not. The appearance of the cod liver oil in Scott's Emulsion differs from the description above. In this way, cod liver oil went through a continuous stage of improvement that gradually incorporated changes, although some traits that can be classified as traditional were maintained.įor example, this oil preserves its characteristic amber color, its soft texture when tasted on the tongue and its somewhat sour taste, which, many years ago, used to be linked to its medicinal qualities. It was not until the 18th and 19th centuries that the Industrial Revolution took it upon itself to refine and purify its production on a larger scale. Historically, it is known that this oil is rather old and that it has been manufactured since the time of the Vikings, in the most remote regions of Scandinavia. It is important to emphasize that cod liver oil is popular for Scott's Emulsion, but that product was not the first or the only one to appear in the world. In this way, it is shown that this emulsion works as a nutritional supplement that complements the children's diet by maintaining a healthy and balanced diet. The latter is well known to help prevent rickets and other diseases caused by deficiency of this substance. Cod liver oil also contains eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid.Īlso, this fat has a lot of vitamin A and vitamin D. For example, the famous Omega 3, present in any pharmacy and that can be consumed in soft capsules. This oil is just one of many types of fish oils that contain high levels of fatty acids. It is not possible to approach Scott's Emulsion without first explaining what its raw material consists of, cod liver oil. This translates into better health that prevents complicated disorders that are often expensive and difficult to treat. Thus, Scott's Emulsion has been well known for doing this job.Ĭod liver oil helps to improve the levels of nutrients and vitamins of those who consume it. Proper nutrition of the infant population is also related to the adequate presence of defenses that protect the body from diseases. This is due to the fact that Omega 3 has positive effects on the maintenance of the circulatory system, keeping the blood vessels in good condition and free from obstructions. ![]() Scott's Emulsion has therapeutic purposes ranging from the mere use as a nutritional supplement in children to the improvement of psoriasis and the prevention of heart attacks. Although its original taste and smell are somewhat bitter, the most recent presentations have other aromas, commonly those of cherry and orange. It is a substance that provides important nutrients to the human body. This product has a liquid consistency, but thick, since it is made from cod liver oil.
