To avoid this effect, a star-mine of many small flowers can be fired at the same time, to attract the attention of the crowd from the fire picture. In Japan we often see a large background display which contains 12 inch shells and in these circumstances the lance-work looks like a sub-display. 

The issue of what is the best kind of university preparation for environmental work remains controversial. Some claim that environmental problem-solving requires broadly trained individuals. They argue that universities need to establish environmental specialist degrees at the bachelors, masters and doctoral levels because narrowly trained specialists are unable to deal with the social, economic, and political as well as scientific aspects of environmental problems.

He no doubt regarded it as a particularly useful kind of stone that could be hammered or cold-worked into various shapes for personal use or adornment.
