Here's one: Dillon Precision, home of the "Blue Press" - a reloading catalog liberally sprinkled with beautiful women holding firearms. What makes them great is that they have a Lifetime "No-B.S." Warranty on their gear - a part breaks, you lose a spring, no problem, no charge!
Excellent customer service, IMHO, and pretty good reloading presses.
Not to put too fine an edge on it, but as I recall the language in the easement contract specifically states that access is granted for 'repair, inspection, and installation of the electrical equipment'. Taking pics of my house doesn't seem to fall under the terms of that agreement.
...there are public easements for the utility companies which could be exploited.
Nope, not legally. Those easements are for the utility companies and only the utility companies. They do not confer any access rights to anyone else, including invaders from the great white north.
My easements are specific to a particular type of utility (power), so any other one would have to negotiate a new deal with me.
...combined the ceramic barium titanate and white-hot molten tin with an ultrasonic probe.
I doubt they did that - they'd end up with a ceramic- and tin-coated ultrasonic probe. I bet they meant to say, "..combined the ceramic barium titanate and white-hot molten tin using an ultrasonic probe."
It's strange to see this resurface after so many years.
I've been working on this problem on and off since college. I was introduced to this problem by an excellent professor named Dr. John Rabung. I've recently made what I think is interesting progress, but have not yet had it reviewed.
I'm also in the process of developing a BOINC-based solver, but that's going slowly.
If anyone else is working on this, I'd love to hear from you - please reply to this post!
The spec calls for a maximum current of 350mA at 48V and a maximum power draw of 12.95 Watts. That means that the cable itself can dissipate up to 3.85 Watts worst case.
24 ga wire has a resistance of 8.75 ohms/100m, making the total resistance of a 100m cable 17.5 ohms. At maximum allowed power draw (taking in account the resistance of the wire), that's a current of 303 mA, with the wire dissipating 1.6 Watts.
I doubt you can find a more efficient wall tumor than that!
The SQUID operates at a temperature of 77 Kelvin (minus 196 degrees centigrade) which we achieve by using liquid nitrogen.
Wouldn't it be difficult to detect small amounts of nitrogen bound in substances when your SQUID detector is bathed in the same substance you're trying to detect?
It's less about spelling and more about using words that you've never seen used properly and therefore do not understand the meaning of the word in context. What does "track" housing mean? How does "monocot" apply to the construction of an F1 race car's cockpit? All of these are mis-applied words based on a phonetic understanding of what was heard, not an understanding of the word being used itself. I agree with Tiller that it comes across as looking less than intelligent.
I would say that Wawa is no longer a local phenomenon. I remember them in the late 80's in NJ, and now they've infiltrated Richmond, VA. According to their website, they have stores in NJ, PA, DE, MD, and VA.
OMG! I'm pretty sure that Concurrent Computer OEM'ed that lineprinter in the '80s. 300 LPM vs 600 LPM. I think it was a dataproducts under the hood. Here is a picture of the band it used. Talk about noisy!
I agree. It sure is fun to talk to Russia on 10m running 25W ssb mobile. I did just that routinely during the solar max in '89 and '90. I'm hoping for some sweet 6m propagation this cycle, too.
I'm showing my age, but the "Sammy Hall Singers" whom I saw around 1978 in the Patrick Henry High School auditorium, Ashland, Virginia, featured a mellotron.
Fairbanks seems to have a relatively highoverall crime rate, but the rates for murder and burglaries are below the national average. Could that be the criminals are reluctant to commit violent crimes due to the likelihood of an armed response?
900MHz RFID chips can be read from 30+ feet under good conditions. The transmitter puts out a 1W spread spectrum signal into an antenna with up to 6 dBi gain, resulting in a max EIRP of 4W. That beats the heck out of your 13.56MHz ISO14443 milliwatt transmitters.
...any sovereign nation (not just the U.S.) needs a standing military to defend itself when and as needed...
Maybe this would be a humane and cost-effective way to guard the US-Mexican border against illegal invaders. Establish a DMZ just inside the US. As you cross the border and enter the DMZ, the pain level would increase the farther into the DMZ you go.
There is a third option - seize their license and issue a ticket for careless/reckless driving. They get their license back if they win in court; if they lose, they get their license back after paying a fine and attending driving class. Remember that driving is a PRIVILEGE, not a right, and can be suspended with evidence of an offense, NOT conviction of an offense.
Drunk drivers get their licenses seized all the time at the instant they're arrested. Note that even a speeding ticket (in Virginia) is technically an arrest (it says so at the top).

Your post had a spelling error. Let me fix it:
the quality of service for almost everybody is in a DISgraceful, downward spiral.
Whew! You mentioned channeling and for a minute I thought you meant this guy!
Speaking from personal experience, brake fluid will take paint off down to the bare metal in short order.
Given the behavior of most children I've seen in public lately, I'd say they fit firmly in the "animals" category.
I doubt they did that - they'd end up with a ceramic- and tin-coated ultrasonic probe. I bet they meant to say, "..combined the ceramic barium titanate and white-hot molten tin using an ultrasonic probe."

That's not too farfetched, turning human depot fat into fuel. According to this analysis of human depot fat, about 24% is palmitic acid, and 45% is oleic acid. I've got about 50kg extra to donate to the cause.

Tiller's rule violation! That's tract housing.
Tiller's Rule: Never attempt to use a word in written form that you've only heard and never read. You will end up looking foolish.
They do have good breakfasty things, though.
Could you mix LOX and liquid methane in the correct proportion in the same fuel/oxidizer tank and eliminate 1/2 of the pumps/plumbing, etc?
You must mean Twinkies, right?
Some years ago ( 2000-ish) ...
Wow! You were using computers back in the days of Christ?
I'm k4det, btw. 73!

See Alien technology for examples of UHF tags.
