Instead a recasting the bell, it was simply given a quarter turn, and a lighter hammer used to strike the hours. The Chimes The first BBC radio broadcast of the Big Ben chimes was on New Year's Eve, 1923. Later, permanent microphones were placed in the tower, and the sound of Big Ben became a familiar one to listeners, assuming great significance during WWII, when the chimes became a symbol of hope and home to BBC World Service listeners around the world.

It was the during the early 1920’s, shortly after the modern forklift was invented, when skids evolved into pallets, revolutionizing the way merchandise was stored and transported. The new design of pallets allowed goods to be moved, stored and stacked with extraordinary speed and versatility. During the WWII the allied countries established a standard size pallet to ease shipment and transportation. This agreement skyrocketed the production and popularity of wooden pallets during the war After the war variety of sizes and designs were produced and used. The transport and storage of different sizes pallets made it costly and ment higher labor costs. So in 1968, the distribution managers of several major Canadian grocery companies met to establish a standard pallet. The result was the 48

From there, travelers going to the main island must take a ferry to Vaitape, the largest town. Many hotels, however, are located on the smaller islands and are often positioned above the ocean on stilts and topped with grass roofs. Visitors can enjoy many activities on Bora Bora including swimming, snorkeling, scuba diving, hiking, visiting WWII ruins, parasailing, jet skis, canoes, dolphin watching, and deep-sea fishing (to name a few). Many people also enjoy shopping on the island, and some of the most popular souvenirs include Tahitian pearls, locally-made art, hand-carved wooden items, and perfumes.
