Abstract: Here is a sand-pile introduced by Baket al.The system accumulates particles one by one. From time to time it topples. Every toppling initiates an event. The distribution of the events' size follows a power law for all the events except the strongest ones. The fraction of the strongest events does not depend on the system length. The number of particles and their clustering increase before the strongest events.
