Thailand’s Wild Boars: Where does their story rank among the greatest tales of rescue, survival? | Borehole Hammer

Since drift competition rules dictate firewall modifications are prohibited, the only way to force the big motor far enough back into the small engine bay to gain a favorable weight distribution was to route the exhaust tubing forward and collect at a single point. As the story goes, the exhaust man came with a stack of pipe one day, and 12 hours later this engineering marvel was fabbed-up and ready for paint prep.

Negative emissions can be thought of as a form of time travel. Ever since the Industrial Revolution, human societies have produced an excess of CO₂, by taking carbon stores from deep inside the earth — in the form of coal, oil and gas — and from stores aboveground (mostly wood), then putting it into the atmosphere by burning it. It has become imperative to reverse the process — that is, take CO₂ out of the air and either restore it deep inside the earth or contain it within new surface ecosystems. This is certainly easier to prescribe than achieve. “All of negative emission is hard — even afforestation or reforestation,” Sally Benson, a professor of energy-resources engineering at Stanford, explains. “It’s not about saying, ‘I want to plant a tree.’ It’s about saying, ‘We want to plant a billion trees.’ ” Nevertheless, such practices offer a glimmer of hope for meeting future emissions targets. “We have to come to grips with the fact that we waited too long and that we took some options off the table,” Michael Oppenheimer, a Princeton scientist who studies climate and policy, told me. As a result, NETs no longer seem to be just interesting ideas; they look like necessities. And as it happens, the Climeworks machines on the rooftop do the work each year of about 36,000 trees.

Soon Jack Begley points to one of the live-feed screens and yells, “What is that? there is something there!”

Farmers are turning to alternative water supplies – one may even hire a diviner – while scorched pastures are storing up trouble for the coming winter

Quality control should vie with productivity in determining the success of an operation. If the only directive to those in the field is to get it done fast, operators will take costly shortcuts to gain footage per hour and please the boss. But holes will angle off, safety will be compromised, and, ultimately, more expense will be incurred. Hissem recalls the advice of his grandparents to “make haste slowly.” Or, to use another maxim, look before you leap. “Rarely can one rush quality,” he says.

AISC amounted to $819/oz, well below the guided $860-900/oz range as a portion of the planned waste capitalization was shifted to 2019 and more oxide material was processed compared to the initial plan.

- Overall project completion stands at more than 98%, tracking approximately two months ahead of schedule.

Rescuers in southern Spain say that the frantic effort to reach a two-year-old boy who fell into a narrow, deep borehole seven days ago has again been slowed by difficult terrain.

Once a consumer selects a subscription pack, he/she will be given a period of four to five weeks to select whether they want to watch these ‘request only basis’ channels. At the end of the period, subscribers who have not sent their request will not receive the channels. This can be done through an SMS.

Exploration will continue to be a strong focus in 2019 with a company-wide exploration program of $45-50 million, with approximately 20% expensed, 5% sustaining, and 75% non-sustaining.

They hope to find proof of the flood tunnel system, thus proving that the old stories are true. In particular, they hope to see the dye seep out into Smith’s Cove. If this happens, Rick says it’s, “information confirmation,” while Marty offers that he’s willing to stay, “open-minded.”
