Fish look like they have been finely dusted with flecks of gold. Fins may be clamped and the fish may shimmy. This following users have made contributions: Bogdan, Michael Page, WikiFAQ Admin, and an anonymous user.

Chances are, the wick has been cut too short. If a wick becomes too short to light, carve away enough wax around the wick(s) in order to re-light the wick(s). You may get a fairly large flame at first, but as the melt pool expands, the level of the melt pool will rise, creating a smaller flame. When you have achieved a full melt pool, you can extinguish the flame(s), let the wax cool, then trim again if necessary. See similar questions...

Carbon has built up somewhere in the system and is inhibiting the flow of gas. After you have turned off the gas and allowed the valve assembly to cool, remove accumulated residue from inside the burner. Turn on the gas and light the tip. If this did not cure the problem, you may need to call a professional for assistance. See similar questions...

Each symbol is composed of the first two letters of the genus+first two letters of the species+first letter of the terminal infraspecific name+tiebreaking number (if needed). Genus and family symbols are the first five (genus) or six (family) letters of the name, plus tiebreaking number (if needed). Symbols were first used in the Soil Conservation Service’s National List of Scientific Plant Names (NLSPN), and have been perpetuated in the PLANTS system. See similar questions...

Adjust the air shutter to the most open position to allow more oxygen flow. If this does not produce a blue flame, there could be an obstruction in the venturi tube. Remove the hose, spring and air shutter from the venturi tube. Look into the venturi tube to see if there is a blockage. Sometimes insects build nests or webs inside during storage. Use a wire coat hanger or something similar to remove the blockage. Reconnect the cooker, perform the leak test and light the cooker again. See similar questions...

After cutting your cigar - if applicable - first heat up the end of the cigar by placing the cigar in a horizontal position in one hand and putting your lighter in a horizontal position in your other hand. Never light a cigar while holding it in your mouth. Rotate the cigar against the flame until it is glowing. It is not necessary to put your cigar into the flame. The flame heat at 3 or 4 cm from the nozzle is enough to light it. See similar questions...

The color of the caddy often indicates some information about the disc inside. White caddies are the most common, and usually indicate a monophonic, non-interactive disc, but some of the later stereo and dual soundtrack releases came in white caddies, and some of these releases appeared in both white and blue caddies. Blue caddies indicate the disc is recorded in stereo sound or indicate the disc is a dual soundtrack (A/B) title. See similar questions...

This is a design limitation of the "ARPT" display mode in Precision Simulator 1.3. Although the missing airports may be available in the database, they appear on the Navigation Display only when the actual distance to the aircraft is smaller than ca. 80 NM. This affects only the "ARPT" mode (blue circles). Enroute airport symbols and fix info symbols etc. have no such limitation. See similar questions...

Most, if not all, the vehicles that made the history of the "absolute" Land Speed Record have been modelled by now and most are currently available from other specialized manufacturers, who are also friends and we all try hard to avoid duplication. Apart from this, it would just not be feasible to produce a new model, no matter how better, of a LSR car that most collectors already have. See similar questions...

You should always use double or triple refined butane gas. If available we recommend our RF300 Refills. Find out more about refilling your micro torch. [Back to FAQs] See similar questions...

Handle your tool with respect. Avoid dust and debris entering the flame nozzle. Do not use the flame in a position where the torch gets excessively heated. For more information, select our Handling Section. [Back to FAQs] You have come accross an inferior copy of the Origal PB207 Micro Torch Cigar Lighter. It is not to be compared with our Original Product. Do not be fooled by these copies as they are of significant less quality than our Blue Flame products. See similar questions...

Lighting your cigar is an important factor in ensuring that your cigar will taste as it was meant to taste! Blue Flame cigar lighters produce a hot, oderless or neutral flame which protects the delicate tabacco flavours. The high temperature and the possibility to horizontally position the lighter enables you to light your cigar in a way that it will burn evenly. [Back to FAQs] See similar questions...

Aerogel has a blue cast for the same reason that the sky is blue. The very small particles that compose the aerogel scatter blue light, the same as our atmosphere scatters blue light. Similarly, when you look through the aerogel the light appears yellowish or reddish, like that of a sunrise or sunset. See similar questions...

First, gather your materials: you must use either Rayon or Silk velvet for good results. I have had the best success with a blend of 35%Rayon/65% Acetate velvet. Silk velvet is also a good candidate. Both are expensive, so look for sales! Make sure to ask about the fabric content if it is not marked; it's that important. Buy a small amount and test it at home before purchasing large amounts for a project. See similar questions...

The "Greater" refers to the wider area beyond the current city limits and plays on the meaning that we are also planning for a "great" place to live, work and play in. This greater area includes Rangiora, Woodend and Kaiapoi, with a flexible line beyond those towns to recognise residential areas such as Darfield, Oxford and other communities that have an impact on Christchurch. For Selwyn District, there's Rolleston and Lincoln, but Darfield is excluded. See similar questions...
