Parallels are plentiful and revolve largely around color: Gold (#/2015), BCA Pink (#/499), STS Camo (#/399), Platinum (1/1) and Printing Plates. Exclusive to hobby and jumbo, 60th Anniversary parallels come with a foil stamp of the celebratory logo. They are numbered, appropriately enough, to 60.

It’s always worth being reminded that, in terms of sheer numbers and even mass, humanity is not the dominant form of life on Earth. Putting aside the somewhat bemusing question of whether viruses count as “life” for now, it’s safe to say that the microscopically small members of both the Bacteria and Archaea domains are everywhere.

The year is 2014 and the location is Los Angeles; the event is Gymkhana and masses of people piled in to see what all the commotion was about – everybody wanted to see Ken Block’s new Mustang! Indeed, Hoonicorn was truly a sight to behold; the 1965 Ford Mustang was so heavily modified from its factory built specs that looking at it on paper would never even reveal that it was, in fact, a Ford Mustang. The menacing roar of the Roush Yates 410cid shows you what gallons of atmosphere sounds like burning up in a high-compression race motor before pumping gobs of twisting force through the reinforced driveline – a driveline that connected all four wheels.

Later this spring, the researcher is planning to move his base of operation from the PSFC to the Air Force Research Lab (AFRL) in Kirkland, New Mexico, in order to take advantage of a microwave source that would allow him to perform experiments at a power level a factor of 10 higher than is currently possible in the laboratory at MIT. He would be able to graduate from drilling rocks in the 4-6 inch range to those in the 2-4 feet range. He is especially interested in exploring how well the rock can be vaporized, which would only be possible with the higher power available at AFRL.

For real there shortage of food Even here in central province. Since the first rain we hv never received Rain…GLORY BE TO JEHOVAH

Microbes rule the world, both above and below ground. This image depicts a performance piece of art wherein an artist, having shook hands with plenty of people, has mapped out the diverse microbial communities he has come into contact with as a result.François-Joseph Lapointe, Université de Montréal/Wellcome Collection

Little Beaver offers a wealth of auger options to adapt to varying applications. Solid stem augers are available in 3- to 8-inch diameters and hollow stem augers are available in 6- and 8-inch diameters. The hollow stem augers, which can drill to 60 feet, feature a 2.75- or 3.75-inch internal diameter for collecting samples without the risk of contamination from surrounding soil. The LST1G+HDA’s standard configuration allows for dry auger boring with the use of a solid or hollow stem auger. The drill is also capable of mud rotary boring using an optional mud pump, swivel and bit.

From an environmental standpoint, air-capture fuels are not a utopian solution. Such fuels are carbon neutral, not carbon negative. They can’t take CO₂ from our industrial past and put it back into the earth. If all the cars, trucks and planes of the year 2050 run on renewable fuels instead of fossil fuels, their CO₂ emissions would need to be removed from the air, recycled into the same product they originally burned through, and the cycle would need to repeat, ad infinitum, lest emissions increase. Even so, these fuels could present an enormous improvement. Transportation — currently the most significant source of emissions by sector in the United States — could cease to be a net emitter of CO₂. Just as crucial, the technology of direct air capture could scale up to become better and cheaper.

In 2012, wireline logs were used for the pre-feasibility study of the Jadar Lithium deposit in Serbia, which is thought to be one of the world’s largest deposits of lithium. They have also been used in Germany for planning a lignite coal mine. In Europe, the gamma ray log was use to delineate and calculate thicknesses of coal seams.

“Last year we took five cuts but this year we’ll struggle to get three. A few showers won’t make any difference: what we need is consistent rain and even then it will take some time for the grass to get going again.”
