The A3 e-tron shares the same plug-in hybrid powertrain used in both the Volkswagen Golf GTE and Passat GTE. To charge the A3 e-tron, the Audi four rings logo] is pulled along to reveal a charging socket. The A3 Sportback e-tron is powered by a 1.4 L TSI gasoline engine that delivers 148 bhp coupled with a 101 bhp (75 kW) electric motor, which is integrated into the car's six-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, for a total combined output of 201 bhp (150 kW).

Three of the best, a Nottingham Raieigh, a Pashley and a Brompton. All are steel all have exellent build quality and all are well thought out thourougly well developed machines.
It's sad that Raleigh went the way it did and stopped manifacturing bicycles. The other two, Pashley and Brompton, are made by the only two English volume bicycle manifacturers left. Both are exellent at what they do and both manifacturers can sell everything they make.
Durban Harbour: "Durban has three marinas for yachting purposes - the main marina opposite the Esplanade, catered for by the Point Yacht Club and Royal Natal Yacht Club, Wilson's Wharf marina further along the Esplanade which is used predominantly by motor craft, and the Bluff Yacht Club facility in the Silt Canal near Bayhead. The Silt Canal also houses a number of other marine activity clubs.
A large number of other recreational activities take place in Durban Bay including canoeing and kayaking, parasailing, fishing from boats and bird watching at the Heritage Site (mangrove swamps). Public sight-seeing is available from a variety of ferries and launches operating such services in Durban Bay. These ferries may be located at Wilson's Wharf, the Durban Marina and at the Gardiner Street Jetty - readers should consult the Ports & Ships MARITIME SERVICES DIRECTORY for details.
The port has a full range of ship chandling and stevedoring available - details of all these are also available in the Ports & Ships Maritime Services Directory.
In addition Durban has a interesting Maritime Museum located near the Bat Centre (opposite Aliwal Street) which includes several tugs, a minesweeper and other large and small exhibits. The main hall houses an interesting photograhic record of the development of Durban Harbour, in addition to many other exhibits including a display covering the whaling history.There is a small charge for entry and secure parking is available. Access is from the yacht mole and left along Maritime Road (past the Point Yacht Club)." ~ ports.co.za/durban-harbour.php

The Three Gorges Dam is a Chinese hydroelectric river dam that spans the Yangtze River. The total electric generating capacity of the dam will reach 22,500 megawatts, at which point it will be the largest hydro-electric power station in the world. This is the biggest project that has been undertaken in China since the Great Wall and the Grand Canal
Four starting days, two day 2s, a day three that played down at one of the fastest rates on memory -- despite 'triple chips' -- and a field remaining that included some of the best known 'nuts' from the WSOPs past, celebraties, two members of the 2008 November 9 and three past champs. The bubble was an amazing hand and yet again I feel sad for the guy that came in...second to the bubble. He got nothing, bubble boy got a prize pack and a seat next year.

Three shapely fastback rear ends, on three 1960s cars from radically different makers. To the left, the beautiful - though mass-produced - Malcom Sayer shape that is the E-Type Jaguar. One of the most beautiful ever penned, though seen here in slightly less favoured 2+2 form.
To the centre, the hand-made approach, from Tatra of Czechoslovakia. František Kardaus came up with the basic shape, and the cars were almost all devoted to official duties.
To the right, the kit-car approach - though that sobriquet is a little unfair here - Peerless are better considered as a low-volume manufacturer. This is the GT, and in 1958, a Peerless GT finished 16th in the Le Mans 24 Hour Race. The Peerless later evolved into the celebrated Gordon-Keeble.

Three Oaks, MI Michigan Central depot built in 1898 is still standing and is in use by a clothing store.
OK, now I added short stick trinagles to the ends of each of the nine main sticks. The short sticks do two things:
1) they add more height, since the angles they create are more acute
2) they add a little more diameter... now we might be covering 1017sqft
Sticklebacks are common in our ponds and also out on the intertidal habitats of the George C. Reifel Migratory Bird Sanctuary in Delta BC Canada. They are often in large schools outside of the breeding season, and sometimes even in the summer months. They can get up to 8 cm long, but most of this small selection was caught in a minnow trap yesterday and were nearly all about 5 cm long. They feed on bottom materials and plankton, and when we gave the ones in the trap a bucket of water from the shallows, they went nuts chasing all the fairy shrimp around and gobbling them up.
The males get a lot of colour during the breeding season. In this sample, they are the ones with bright red under the chin and an almost bluish green back. Wikipedia gave me way too much information about the romantic life of this species. The male digs a pit, lining it with underwater vegetation, debris and sand, glues this all together with some sort of proteinaceous secretion into a sort of tube shape, finishing this craft project by swimming through it several times to fine-tune its shape!! Say what!! Apparently the female is encouraged into this "tunnel of love" to lay eggs, and the male follows to fertilize said eggs, then chases the female away and guards this nest until the eggs hatch, often plunking himself in the front of the tunnel and finning to increase circulation and oxygen in the tunnel. I have paraphrased several pages to come up with this version of the Stickleback Nursery Story, and may have some parts wrong, but ....FASCINATING!
Oh yeah, they have spines, and erect them as a defense when some bird is trying to swallow them.
