Inosculation is a natural phenomenon in which trunks, branches or roots of two trees grow together. It is biologically similar to grafting and such trees are referred to in forestry as gemels, from the Latin word meaning "a pair".

The Japanese have been producing wood for 700 years without cutting down trees. In the 14th century, the extraordinary daisugi technique was born in Japan. Inde...ed, the daisugi provide that these trees will be planted for future generations and not be cut down but pruned as if they were giant bonsai trees; by applying this technique to cedars, the wood that can be obtained is uniform, straight and without knots, practically perfect for construction. A pruning as a rule of art that allows the tree to grow and germinate while using its wood, without ever cutting it down. Extraordinary technique.

Canadian Solar is excited to invite you to our Series 7 module launch webinar, held in conjunction with pv magazine on October 29. Our Series 7 modules are desi...gned to reduce the LCOE for solar plants and set the stage for global grid parity. With power ratings up to 665 Watts, Series 7 modules open the door to further optimizations at several levels, promising lower LCOE and a higher return on investment, without creating additional challenges for installers or components suppliers. The webinar, moderated by pv magazine's Mark Hutchins, will feature live presentations and Q&A by our CEO Dr. Shawn Qu, Product Manager Christian Comes, and R&D Sr. Director Alan Tao Xu. Time is 9:30-10:30am CET. Register now to participate live or get notification of the replay and watch at your convenience. You don't want to miss the next generation of solar!

The famous Italian diver Enzo Mallorca dove into the sea of Syracuse and was talking to his daughter Rossana who was aboard the boat. Ready to go in, he felt... something slightly hit his back. He turned and saw a dolphin. Then he realized that the dolphin did not want to play but to express something. The animal dove and Enzo followed. At a depth of about 12 meters, trapped in an abandoned net, there was another dolphin. Enzo quickly asked his daughter to grab the diving knives. Soon, the two of them managed to free the dolphin, which, at the end of the ordeal, emerged, issued an "almost human cry" (describes Enzo). (A dolphin can stay under water for up to 10 minutes, then it drowns.) The released dolphin was helped to the surface by Enzo, Rosana and the other dolphin. That’s when the surprise came: she was pregnant! The male circled them, and then stopped in front of Enzo, touched his cheek (like a kiss), in a gesture of gratitude and then they both swam off. Enzo Mallorca ended his speech by saying: Until man learns to respect and speak to the animal world, he can never know his true role on Earth." ~ Vangelis.

"Jupiter’s roses: A cosmic bouquet just for you. Not actual roses, these are in fact cyclones on Jupiter’s north pole. These swirls of striking colors in thi...s extreme false color are a rendering of an image from our Juno mission. The huge, persistent cyclone found at Jupiter’s north pole is visible at the center of the image, encircled by smaller cyclones that range in size from 2,500 to 2,900 miles (4,000 to 4,600 kilometers). Together, this pattern of storms covers an area that would dwarf the Earth." By NASA (Posted under a creative commons license)
