Different strokes for different folks. I love this set. I’m not a huge fan of white base cards. It just doesn’t appeal to me as much so I’m loving putting this set together. I like how there are sets within the set in the first 500 cards. Not to mention the other insert sets. Great stuff.

Warm weather ought to have been a boon for the industry after a succession of wet and dismal years. Instead, for many farmers the dry summer has meant a daily grind to replenish depleted water stocks.

I think it’s too early to give relief food, ’cause I believe the droughts affect the yield of the products and this is not harvest time! Unless u tell me that these people lacked food from the beginning and not because of the droughts

In studies of MSM, a US study found that 53% of participants were willing to be circumcised in one survey [95], whereas another, conducted in San Francisco, found 28% of the uncircumcised were willing to get circumcised if there was evidence of efficacy, but only 0.9% of those for whom MC would be a relevant intervention (mostly those who engaged in insertive anal intercourse not using condoms) were willing [116]. In Scotland, only 14% of MSM indicated their willingness to take part in a circumcision trial [117]. One study in China found 43% of MSM were willing to be circumcised [96], and in another, 8% were willing initially, but this rose to 31% after an information session [118]. The lower rates of acceptability among MSM compared to heterosexual men could be due to the fact that recent studies of MC have not shown a benefit for most MSM in protection against HIV [63, 119]. However, these studies included men who were both receptive and insertive anal sex partners, and MC only offers protective benefits for MSM who are mostly or exclusively insertive [63, 119].

The company’s ambitions for mass production may still seem extreme. To actually capture 1 percent of the world’s carbon emissions by 2025 would, by Gebald’s calculations, require that Climeworks build 250,000 carbon-capture plants like the ones on the roof at Hinwil. That adds up to about 4.5 million carbon collectors. For a company that has only built 100 collectors (and has 14 small plants around Europe), it’s a staggering number. The Climeworks founders therefore try to think of their product as the automotive industry might — a piece of mass-produced technology and metal, not the carbon they hope to sequester. “What we’re doing is gas separation,” Wurzbacher said, “and that’s traditionally a process-industry business, like oil and gas. But we don’t really see ourselves there.”

AISC increased, despite lower mining and processing costs, mainly due to higher costs associated with processed stockpiles and higher G&A costs.

The drill is human-powered, easy to build and, most importantly, capable of drilling up to 295 feet into the ground. That’s deep enough to reach clean, unpolluted groundwater almost anywhere in the world.

An acceptability study conducted in the Sichuan province of China found 53% of men were concerned that MC would be "too sensitive and embarrassing" [114]. Concerns were also expressed that men might be mocked for undertaking the surgery.

Steve Oldham, Carbon Engineering’s chief executive, added that direct-air-capture synthetics have an advantage over traditional fossil fuels: They won’t have to spend a dime on exploration. “If you were a brand-new company looking to make fuel, the cost of finding and then extracting fossil fuel is going to be really substantial,” he says. “Whereas our plants, you can build it right in the middle of California, wherever you have air and water.” He told me that the company’s first large-scale facility should be up and running by 2022, and will turn out at least 500 barrels a day of fuel feedstock — the raw material sent to refineries.

In June, the partners loaded their newly cast steel bit on a horse-drawn wagon and took it to the Goose Creek oilfield, according to historian Donald Barlett.

The popular “Street Outlaws” show is essentially a glorified version of what you do with your friends in that industrial area that you don’t think anybody else knows about; it’s a list-based race where racers move up the bracket by beating the racer ahead of them.

These forces are the key variables, and optimizing them can be helped by watching for such things as the size of cuttings coming out of the hole. The chips should be as large as possible, thumbnail-sized ideally. The goal is to minimize the amount of mechanical kinetic energy and heat bouncing back to the drill, while transferring as much energy as possible into the rock to spall and break it. “The challenge has never been about generating enough power. Rather, it is about improving the durability, longevity, and efficient energy transfer of the drill string and cutting tools,” says Hissem. He believes metallurgical advances and new drill technologies have together produced “a modern physics miracle.” Effective operators can tap into this miracle by tuning and balancing the forces being applied.
