Introducción: 2.5 SISTEMA INGLÉS DE UNIDADES
Entender la importancia que aún tiene el sistema inglés en la vida diaria El sistema inglés de unidades o sistema imperial, es aún usado ampliamente en los Estados Unidos de América y, cada vez en menor medida, en algunos países con tradición británica. Debido a la intensa relación comercial que tiene nuestro país con los EUA, existen aún en México muchos productos fabricados con especificaciones en este sistema. Ejemplos de ello son los productos de madera, tornillería, cables conductores y perfiles metálicos. Algunos instrumentos como los medidores de presión para neumáticos automotrices y otros tipos de manómetros frecuentemente emplean escalas en el sistema inglés. El Sistema Inglés de unidades son las unidades no-métricas que se utilizan actualmente en los Estados Unidos y en muchos territorios de habla inglesa (como en el Reino Unido ), pero existen discrepancias entre los sistemas de Estados Unidos e Inglaterra. 1 milla = 1,609 m 1 yarda = 0.915 m 1 pie = 0.305 m 1 pulgada = 0.0254 m
Pogues Guitarist Philip Chevron Dies Of Cancer At Age 56
“After a long illness Philip passed away peacefully this morning,” read a message on the Pogues’ website Tuesday. “We all send our sincere condolences to his family. He was unique. We'll miss him terribly. Dublin town, and the world, just got smaller. His loved ones are in our thoughts.” Chevron, born in Dublin as Phillip Ryan, became a fixture of the Irish punk scene in the late '70s as the lead singer of the cult band The Radiators from Space. In 1984, Chevron was invited to join the Pogues as a guitarist, performing on the band’s breakthrough albums “Rum, Sodomy and the Last” and “If I Should Fall From Grace With God.” Chevron performed with the band for years, staying on after MacGowan left in 1991 and was replaced by Joe Strummer, the former Clash frontman. In 2007, Chevron was diagnosed with esophageal cancer.

DIY Band Stickers with Blank Labels
Playing in a band can be a lot of fun, but it is also a lot of hard work. Getting started out is invariably the hardest part when you are attempting to write good music, get exposure, and book shows. With the amount of other bands trying to do the same thing you really need to do something to stand apart so you are not lost in the noise. The internet has changed the music industry completely over the past 15 years, which is both a good and a bad thing depending on how you look at it. Getting the exposure you need is easier if you take advantage of the web but it is also important to promote yourself offline locally, regionally, and even nationally as you grow. The best ways to promote yourself offline have not varied too much over the years, it all boils down to word of mouth and band merchandise. To get started creating your own stickers you first need to settle on the size that you require them to be. Now that you possess everything you need it is time to start printing your stickers.
