Shut off the kiln when the glass has bent to the degree that you want. As a starting point, you could fire a bottle to cone 016. Cooling usually must be slow from 1100 degrees F. to 700 degrees F, which is the annealing range. The smaller the project, the faster the glass can cool through that temperature range.
A whaling ban, or moratorium, was then introduced in 1986. Even today, no one really knows how many whales are left. Unfortunately, some countries like Japan, Iceland and Norway have refused to stop whaling. They still kill thousands of whales each year between them.Japan.

Whale watching is mostly a recreational activity (cf. birdwatching), but it can also serve scientific and/or educational purposes. A study prepared for IFAW in 2009 estimated that 13 million people went whale watching globally in 2008. Whale watching generates $2.1 billion per annum in tourism revenue worldwide, employing around 13,000 workers. The size and rapid growth of the industry has led to complex and continuing debates with the whaling industry about the best use of whales as a natural resource.
