Das Bild besteht aus zwei Teilen. Auf der linken Seite ist ein illustratives Plakat zu sehen, das in einem historischen Stil gestaltet ist. Es zeigt ein Tor mit einem gelben Schild, auf dem in schwarzer Schrift "DIG UND DAG DAS DUELL AN DER NEWA VON HANNES HEGEN" steht. Um das Schild herum sind Waffen wie ein Gewehr und ein Schwert abgebildet. Die Farben sind warm und erinnern an eine historische oder künstlerische Darstellung.
Auf der rechten Seite ist eine Comic-ähnliche Szene dargestellt, die eine winterliche Stadtlandschaft zeigt. Im Vordergrund liegt ein großer, violetter Unterseeboot-Rumpf auf dem Eis, umgeben von Schnee und Eis. Mehrere Figuren in historischen Kleidern arbeiten an dem Boot. Im Hintergrund sind majestätische Gebäude mit Dächern und Türmen zu sehen, die von einem violetten Himmel mit einem einzigen weißen Wolken bedeckt sind. Die Szene ist detailliert und zeigt eine winterliche Atmosphäre.

L'immagine è in bianco e nero e mostra una parete ricoperta da una vasta collezione di radio e telefoni portatili di varie forme e dimensioni. Questi dispositivi sono appesi in modo disordinato, creando un effetto visivo caotico. Alcune radio hanno antenne e altri accessori, mentre alcuni telefoni portatili mostrano tasti numerici e display. In primo piano, un giovane ragazzo con capelli scuri e una maglietta a righe guarda direttamente l'obiettivo con un'espressione sorpresa. La parete dietro di lui è grezza e mostra segni di usura, aggiungendo un tocco di autenticità all'immagine.

, of course well studied substances that have a very palpable benefit and minimal get banned, but keeping substances that are incredibly harmful out of water or the food supply is not a priority. Who doesn't love compounds that bio-accumulate , don't biodegrade, are both hydrophilic and lipophilic, and are toxic!

Why This “Nonprofit Killer” Clause Is So Alarming—and How Trump Will Use It
He’s already clearly showing us what he wants to do.Emily Tamkin (Slate)
In what could be a major escalation of U.S. pressure on Mexico, the Trump administration has begun to impose travel restrictions and other sanctions on prominent Mexican politicians whom it believes are linked to drug corruption, U.S. officials said.

When KJ Muldoon was born at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) in August, doctors noticed that he was lethargic. They carried out tests that revealed he had a genetic metabolic disorder that leads to the buildup of ammonia and can cause brain damage and death. Gene sequencing helped them determine the exact location of the error that led to him being unable to make a vital enzyme. This allowed doctors to use CRISPR technology to create a treatment tailored specifically towards his unique mutation. After three infusions containing billions of gene editors, his defect appears to have been corrected and his condition, at least partially reversed. "This is an important first step towards an entirely new type of personalized medicine. I think it's going to utterly transform the way we practice medicine, particularly in the area of rare diseases," says Dr. Kiran Musunuru, a professor for translational research at the University of Pennsylvania, who worked on KJ's case. See the @npr story at the first link. There's a link to the original article in the New England Journal of Medicine at the second link.

I love when people sell things for the blind and say "see pictures"! Anyway, can someone please tell me what this is? I doubt it's a Perkins. Could it be a New Hall? I can't believe the price!
If it helps, here is a page on old braillewriters.

@Georgiana Brummell what was the listed price for you? For me it was more than $300 plus an additional $200+ for delivery.
I feel the description was deliberately ambiguous btw.
It's a long flat metal device, with 4 rows of small rectangular holes in it. It looks most like the "slate" mentioned on the page you linked to.
Hope this helps, I don't have any expertise in the matter!

in reply to Anja • • •Das Bild zeigt das Logo der "junge Welt", einer deutschen Tageszeitung. Das Logo besteht aus dem Text "junge Welt" in einer modernen, serifenlosen Schriftart. Die Wörter "junge" und "Welt" sind in schwarzer Farbe gehalten, während das Wort "Welt" in Rot hervorgehoben ist. Oben links befindet sich ein kleiner roter Quadrat, gefolgt von den Worten "DIE TAGESZEITUNG" in kleinerer Schriftgröße und ebenfalls in Schwarz.
