If it's doing that to the iron castings I wonder what the plumbing looks like.

The plumbing used is most probably a very thick rubber, possibly reinforced on the outside with removable lengthwise split steel pipes.... that would be my first guess...

HILLSBORO, Ore. — A Portland woman feels like her reputation is scarred after another woman stole her identity and used it during an unrelated arrest that involved police gunfire.

The woman who was arrested initially seemed to get away with giving police the fake name. The problem? It is a unique name that belongs to a very real person who was not in any way involved in the case.

That's a face of meth, if I've ever seen one... I feel for the victim, it's going to be a long and annoying process to straighten things out...

Good food, cheap.

 

 

Joey I just read where they are fleeing the Keys due to imminent flooding from global warming and the water rising. You started packing yet?

Yeah. It's bumper-to-bumper on Overseas Hwy right now. I hope they get out in time.

 

Sounds like a good time to buy some island property cheap!

The Portland City Council approved plans for a $500 million water filtration plant in 2017. But now, more than two years later, Water Bureau leaders say the plant likely will cost 70% more, or $850 million.

That's because the original cost estimate did not include any pipes to carry water to or from the treatment plant. Planners did not disclose that omission to the council in 2017 or during the intervening two years.

In addition to revealing that the recommended treatment plant will require $200 million of pipelines, Stuhr and his team also said the projected cost to build the plant they envision sans pipes has risen by about $150 million to about $650 million.

Hey kid, "Where's water come from? "

"The faucet, stupid."

 

More Portlandia. Urinals are cheaper, greener, more space efficient, use less water, and more time efficient but none of that matters.

PORTLAND, Ore. — The City of Portland banned urinals in the remodeled Portland Building.

There will be sinks, right?

 

Well they could just put a hole in the floor. It won't take long till the OUTRAGE over wet seats takes effect. Or leaving the seat up!

 

 

An international team of scientists has figured out how to capture heat and turn it into electricity.​

"The conventional wisdom was once that, if you have a paramagnet and you heat it up, nothing happens," Heremans said. "And we found that that is not true. What we found is a new way of designing thermoelectric semiconductors -- materials that convert heat to electricity. Conventional thermoelectrics that we've had over the last 20 years or so are too inefficient and give us too little energy, so they are not really in widespread use. This changes that understanding."

 

 

Activist should never make policy. While I 99.99% believe that humans are changing the climate for the worse on this planet, emotional demands are the tools of con men.
