Here's the thing the RFID is only an index number to a database entry, change or hack the number and you don't match the digital picture in the database and they become real interested in you. The real badguys want to either get bogus ID to match their image into the database or to change what's already in it. When you are reentering the US from a trip to Columbia, would you rather be have a record of 3 arrests from drug trafficking cross-referenced to your name or be a Sunday-School teacher doing a humanitarian mission?
That's called geothermal heating, or a heat pump. It's not common but it's not rare either, the driveway part is a bit over the top. Usually in rural areas a pond is dug which effectively becomes a solar collect several acres in size, a swimming hold and a source of fish. Sometimes depending on the condition and depth of the aquifer an array of pipes are just buried in the ground for a heat source and sink.
We just did a rebuild of a strech of our expressway, first they laid down rebar, reinforcing bars. I don't see where installing some plastic tubing in with the rebar would make a huge difference in costs. Did you know that when they build the Hoover dam, they laid in pipes to cool the concrete as it cured, if they didn't it would be hot enough to burn you still today. Next they laid down concrete, not the ususal concrete but a drier concrete that was spread over the rebar with a machine that looked like an asphalt spreader and was then compacter with rollers, after that had cured a while a veneer of asphalt was laid on top. The biggest expense would come from either connecting the section to a manifold or the actual wells that the manifold connect to the aquifers with. Life of the of the roadbed would be greatly incresed because thermal expansion and contract would be reduced and that is a major killer of our roads.
I recall seeing something like this on TechTV so it was a few years ago, but if its the same, they are using a plasma generated from fluorine gas and usually the base molecule will disintegrate before the fluorine bond breaks.
They don't bring "added value". Our local IBEW advertises on the radio the using an union electrician on a job gets the contractors warranty extended an additional 5 years; I'd call that added value jackass. A lot of the union shops are small shops where the owner carried a union card for years.
The website was talking about a couple bucks range, but I can't find it again. The technology is an ion application so the biggest expense is going to be evacuating the atmosphere from the treatment chamber, after that would be paatent licensing. The actual coating is then ion deposited on the desired article and the result is only a few molecules thick. I can't see any molecules thick layer having a measurable effect on thermal conductivity, nor having any effect on electrical conductivity that would be solved by cycle the switches a few time.
a while back on a different site Bruce Parens googled "Bruce" and found he was the #8 bruce in google, I did the same and googled my first and last and found an international registry for people with the same name as me that had a 150 people on it.
A friend of mine won some major money in the Lottery a while back, within a week he was busted for drugs and in prison in 3 different countries at the same time according to shit posted on the internet.
The unions also seem to have learned from their past mistake as well. Now the unions that are doing well are the ones that don't automatically think management is wrong, and the rank and file is right, and also are bringing added value to the table for both sides.
In a prefect world I'd agree with you, unfortunately things you do off-the-clock can and do affect you on-the-clock. you go out and get all drunked-up or high and it affects my safety the next day. If you smoke off-premises it increases the healthcare costs and takes from my profit-sharing bonus or stock dividends.
At will employment doesn't negate a company from having to pay unemployment insurance if they terminate you, nor does it allow the employer to terminate you for activities that are legally protectected or for discriminatory reasons. Additionally at will employment doesn't prevent a terminated employee from bring a civil wrongful discharge suit against the former employer.
Makes you wonder how much of the Info "stolen" off "the computer" or "the internet" was really just thrown into a dumpster don't it. I have been fighting with people at work to shred everything if they shred anything.
I've acquired a taste for a lot of non-pop music out on the web released under the various cc licenses. Most major label music sounds cookie-cutter except for the one or two "break-out" artists each year, with something original.
Actually they do own the records and can do anything they want with the information in the records consistent with the laws and usually more stringent industry customs and personal ethics.
You need to go down into the records storage area and just look at the physical mess there. Some of the forms are flimsies and are going to disintegrate long before the AMA/ADA HIPPA/OSHA specified 30 years are up and those radiographs are most likely to fixer stain into unreadability as well. Most offices pull inactive records and shove them into a "bankers box" which are then shoved into a storage area that isn't climate controlled and keep the boxes in chronological order by date pulled and the internal chart in alphabetical order usually in a rental storeage unit so vermin can nest in the nice warm paper! Now imagine the FBI calling and saying one of your patients from ten years ago got fed to the alligator, please send dental records for ID; you can spend $2,000.00 in wages doing a futile search! Sooner or later we're going to have to do it, paper and film is just to expensive to store for that long.
They built them for European Cities, You know those places where the 3 real tress are kept in the central city park, so they don't know any better. In my city from 30m above the ground it looks like a forest, you can't even tell it's there.
yeah it leads to jerking off and being to sexually spent to do it with a real person; oops sorry I meant it leads to being an insatiable sexual predator, have to be politically correct you know
If you follow the above link you'll find the answer is yes, in several states you can be arrested, prosecuted, and convicted. If you have a reasonable good lawyer, the conviction probably will not stand. Any portion of this would fit my definition of trouble, I'd think being arrested even if the arraignment judge laughed the cop out of the court would tend to spoil my day.
What the hell are you talking about, the USG, United States Government, doesn't get it's authority from any fucking treaty with the WTO, it gets it from the Constitution, and it can't negotiate away that which it doesn't own. My property rights are my property rights, and any treaties entered into by the government is between the governments. If the government wants my property to settle a they have to use the due process of condemation through eminent domain.
What you peons in the rest of the world fail to understand is that the Americans threw off the yoke of serfdom when we declared our independence.
I'm retired US Military and I don't have one problem with the EU stepping up to the plate and seeing what it's like to do some of the heavy lifting in the defense area for a change. Most of our biggest problems can be traced to something the European started anyways; rest of the world has been a little light in funding the UN as well.

Well if you subscribe to the abiogenic origin of petroleum theory, then you would say that petroleum isn't a form of storage of solar energy.
you say that like it's different from what we have now.

the coating is 1/3 less surface energy than teflon, does soapy water stick to teflon?

Then she'd say STFU, pack your shit and move back to your mothers basement!

That site is great, lots of music especially in minority genre that don't sell well enough for the RIAA vampires to suck dry with a record contract.
