Zip firelighters ( or " zip cubes ") are packaged small blocks of solid fuel containing kerosene, sold as a firelighter in Ireland, Canada and the United States, also in the UK, France & Belgium where they are the leading brand ( Source: AC Nielsen ).

Computer files can be also stored on other media in some cases, such as magnetic tapes, compact discs, Digital Versatile Discs, Zip drives, USB flash drives, etc.

" Use Zip code " labels were also used to promote the use of a ZIP code.

Zip also traveled extensively with the Ringling Brothers circus.

Famous examples are Zip the Pinhead ( although he may not have had microcephaly ) and Schlitzie the Pinhead, who also starred in the 1932 movie Freaks.

Zip, Zips or ZIP may also refer to:

" He also sings " Zip It " to the tune of Devo's " Whip It ".

Early generation Zip drives were in direct competition with the SuperDisk or LS-120 drives, which held 20 % more data and could also read standard 3½ " 1. 44 MB diskettes, but they had a lower data transfer rate due to lower rotational speed.

Support for bzip2-style compression was also in Zip from 3. 0f beta.

The Zip cartridges also wore out, grew defects, or otherwise lost all four ' Z tracks '.

During the course of his varied entertainment career, Maschwitz also adapted French comedies such as Thirteen For Dinner ; wrote the book and lyrics for numerous musicals, amongst them Balalaika, Summer Song, which used the music of Dvorak, Happy Holiday ( based on Arnold Ridley's play The Ghost Train ), and Zip Goes a Million, which was written specially for George Formby ; and he was the creator of the radio series Café Collette.

Zip is also a de facto standard, so it is more widely accepted for archives and sharing.

Children outside of London ( and indeed the UK ) can also apply for a Visitor version of the Zip card ( which offers free bus and tram travel for under 16s, and half-rate fares for 16 – 18 year olds ) online, which they must collect from one of TfL's Travel Information Centres.

The game also has an optional Zip mode, like Myst and Riven, to cross explored terrain quickly by skipping several nodes.

The Jaz disks were originally released with a 1 GB capacity ( there was also 540 MB, but it was unreleased ) in a 3½-inch form factor, which was a significant increase over Iomega's most popular product at the time, the Zip drive with its 100 MB capacity.

Zip lines and suspension bridges through surrounding forest have also become popular.

Matt Ficner designed the computer-generated characters for the series, and also provided the voices of Zip and Snip in the first season.

Its immediate competitors were the popular Iomega Zip drive, which had a capacity of 100MB and Imation's Laser-Servo LS-120 SuperDisk, which had a capacity of 120MB and unlike the Zip disk was also backwards compatible with 720KB Double-Density and 1400KB High-Density 3. 5 inch floppy disks ( not with 2880KB Extra-Density disks, though ).

According to the census of 2000, there were 5, 002 people, 1, 977 households, and 1, 678 families residing in the Interlochen Zip Code Tabulation Area ( 49643 ), which also includes most of Inland Township as well as portions of Almira and Colfax townships in Benzie County along with the western portion of Green Township and the northwest corner of Grant Township.

The M-10000 was eventually named City of Salina for the Kansas City-Salina route it served, but it was also nicknamed the " Tin Worm " or " Little Zip ".

Zip Tour is also open during winter, conditions permitting.

It was marketed as a backup and portable storage solution, similar to the Zip drive, but which could be installed completely inside of a laptop, as PC cards typically slide completely inside of the laptop and thus do not increase its dimensions, which also precludes the need for a power supply or cables.

Pocket Zip USB also works with Mac OS 8. x, but the PC card version is specified as not working with Apple computers.

* The municipality also have this Post Office with 4408 as the Zip Code.

In the month of Zip, the feast Ihcil Ixchel was celebrated by the physicians and shamans ( hechiceros ), and divination stones as well as medicine bundles containing little idols of " the goddess of medicine whom they called Ixchel " were brought forward.

The United States does not define a census-designated place called Big Sur, but it does define a Zip Code Tabulation Area ( ZCTA ), 93920.

In 2004, Rogers Video began a partnership with Zip. ca to provide a DVD-by-mail service called Rogers Video Direct.

Distraught but skillful bounty hunter Lewis Gates ( Tom Berenger ) pursues three armed escaped convicts into Montana's Oxbow Quadrangle, followed by his faithful companion called Zip, an Australian cattle dog.

At the 2000 census, the dxvf did not define a census-designated place called Ladera Ranch, but it did define a Zip Code Tabulation Area ( ZCTA ), 92694.

At the 2000 census, the United States didnot define a census-designated place called Cedarville, but it did define a Zip Code Tabulation Area ( ZCTA ), 96104.

# such as the work of Zip Dobyns, sometimes called the " Zip code ," in which the first house is equal to the first planet ( Aries ), the second house to the second planet ( Taurus ) and so forth.

The impact of technological factors is also illustrated by the history of the high-energy fuel program.

Pytheas says that the Gutones, a people of Germany, inhabit the shores of an estuary of the Ocean called Mentonomon, their territory extending a distance of six thousand stadia ; that, at one day's sail from this territory, is the Isle of Abalus, upon the shores of which, amber is thrown up by the waves in spring, it being an excretion of the sea in a concrete form ; as, also, that the inhabitants use this amber by way of fuel, and sell it to their neighbors, the Teutones.

Well-funded groups like Canada's Ballard Power Systems are also working to develop a " regenerative fuel cell ", a device that can generate hydrogen and oxygen when power is available, and combine these efficiently when power is needed.

The Navy also has some fuel shortage problems, but military training is still effective.

A single MiG-17F Fresco that was also operated by the FABF did see combat service in the Agacher Strip War in 1985-86, but proved expensive to operate in terms of fuel, maintenance, and pilot training requirements.

Furze / aiteann was also used for the May Boughs, May Bushes and as fuel for the bonfire.

As the end of the war approached, Germany also experienced critical shortages in fuel and ammunition stocks as a result of Anglo-American strategic bombing and blockade.

It is also the minimum temperature at which there is enough evaporated fuel in the air to start combustion.

The adiabatic combustion temperature ( also known as the adiabatic flame temperature ) increases for higher heating values and inlet air and fuel temperatures and for stoichiometric air ratios approaching one.

It also has a capacity to convert substantial portion of the intake into Refuse-derived fuel ( RDF ) materials for further combustion use in several energy consuming industries across Pakistan e. g., in cement manufacturing companies where it is used to heat up the Cement Kiln systems.

In addition, modern chemical engineers are also concerned with pioneering valuable materials and related techniques – which are often essential to related fields such as nanotechnology, fuel cells and biomedical engineering.

Climate also affects the supply of fuel for cooking ; a common Chinese food preparation method was cutting food into small pieces to cook foods quickly and conserve scarce firewood and charcoal.

Higher compression ratios will however make gasoline engines subject to engine knocking if lower octane-rated fuel is used, also known as detonation.

Diesel engines on the other hand operate on the principle of compression ignition, so that a fuel which resists autoignition will cause late ignition which will also lead to engine knock.

Direct fuel injection which can inject fuel only at the time of fuel ignition ( similar to a diesel engine ) is another recent development which also allows for higher compression ratios on gasoline engines.

Many vehicles were destroyed or commandeered by militias, especially in the north and east of the country, and the fuel supply system was also badly affected.

Once glycogen is depleted the body begins to fuel the brain using ketones, while also metabolizing body protein ( including but not limited to skeletal muscle ) to be used to synthesize sugars for use as energy by the rest of the body.

A diesel engine ( also known as a compression-ignition engine ) is an internal combustion engine that uses the heat of compression to initiate ignition to burn the fuel, which is injected into the combustion chamber.

They typically use direct injection running on cheap low-grade heavy fuel, also known as Bunker C fuel, which requires heating in the ship for tanking and before injection due to the fuel's high viscosity.

A Lockheed T-33 trainer, diverted from an unrelated Air National Guard mission, also shadowed the 727 until it ran low on fuel and turned back near the Oregon-California border.

Fluid-based magnetohydrodynamic ( MHD ) power generation has been studied as a method for extracting electrical power from nuclear reactors and also from more conventional fuel combustion systems.

Exhaust from a spark ignition engine consists of the following: nitrogen 70 to 75 % ( by volume ), water vapor 10 to 12 %, carbon dioxide 10 to 13. 5 %, hydrogen 0. 5 to 2 %, oxygen 0. 2 to 2 %, carbon monoxide: 0. 1 to 6 %, unburnt hydrocarbons and partial oxidation products ( e. g. aldehydes ) 0. 5 to 1 %, nitrogen monoxide 0. 01 to 0. 4 %, nitrous oxide < 100 ppm, sulfur dioxide 15 to 60 ppm, traces of other compounds such as fuel additives and lubricants, also halogen and metallic compounds, and other particles.
