Hi. Noticed in some non-residential buildings, that toilets drain the waste brutally fast. Is there any vacuum implementation of some kind in modern/specialized sewer plumbing like in hospitals, hotels... ?

Does alopecia affects only the head ? What about facial hair, rest of body ?

Now replace the gun and bullet with two flashlamps. One aimed forward, the other backwards...

"short" is a common improper wording for electrical fault. The diagnostic tools that provide factory programmed codes readout are very commonly misinterpreted, and that is what takes the sharp electronics expert (not a computer expert) to diagnose. A code like P0303 for 'cylinder 3 misfire detected' usually causes the 'mechanic' to replace the #3 spark plug, in a guess. As the problem stays, then goes to replace a O2 sensor, then the other... Problem can be from many other things, as head gasket coolant leak, corona discharge in a high voltage wire, sticky valve, a bad connector in many places, a rat bitten wire, wet contacts, poor grounding... Takes a lot more diagnostics than trial and error blindly replacing parts from an error code displayed. Murphy's law states that if you focus in the 10 most common failures, the first vehicle to repair will present failure # 174, and intermittent. The trust in oil change places does not work well when they remove the oil pan steel plug with a pneumatic pistol instead of a plain wrench -because it is easier-. Its button set in 'in' instead of 'out' on your new BMW with an aluminium threaded oil pan.

I would replace 5) with brakes servicing on the list. Engines usually go to 'machinists' I always wanted to put an unique noises finding/repair shop. By running the vehicle on dynamometer-like bumpy cylinders without the dynamometer Will be in my next life... To repair electronics, you need a very sharp smart electronics experienced technician, not a mechanic, as cars have not been built anymore, for about 20 years. They are computers with wheels. Mine has seven on board.

Sorry, left out 'household utilities' metering.

What is the typical operation limits of AC power meters ? Do they register -say 10 mA ? Water meters are unresponsive to a drip, drip, drip... Vanes do not turn at very low flow. Is there a typical minimum ? What does wear imply in them, -say ten years.

Wise assumption, John. For the slow and tiny atmospheric gradients. I wonder if rising 4 atmospheres in ~ten seconds will rupture the foil. The construction is gasketed and tightly crimped. Sometimes, the pcb-to-crimp is sealed with some adhesive for water tightness. Will perforate one to compare before-and-after performance.

An electret microphone has air between the capacitive foils. To operate it in a pressurized 4 atmosphere air chamber, would have to be vented to prevent imploding. Could perforating a tiny, tiny 0.1mm hole in the electret foil cause concernible degradation on its performance ? Or, side venting the housing voids ? Or, ... ?

Thanks. So I will translate/read "Recent Status Updates" as ---> "What is on your mind?". OK. And is there a place for real "member status updates" ? Those are not changes on the user 'titles' , or moderators that stop being such, right ? Titles (leptons, atoms...) are not used anymore, correct ?

Hi. What is that column on the right side "Recent Status Updates" ? Seems more bloggy than titled...

Western writing is from left to right, and using the right hand is more efficient or 'proper' Do languages written from right to left mean to a certain extent, that the eastern people is mostly left-handed ? Or pushed to be left -handed ? When my daughter started using pencils in preschool, she tended to be left handed. Which I pushed and encouraged to use the right hand. And worked since. Later learned my parents did the same to me.

Resided in San Francisco, California for many years and at a certain point, I was in the rare position to choose were in the whole U.S. to move for retirement. Fleeing from the 24-7 overcrowded crawling five lane freeways, banks, supermarket lines, forest of parking meters and other factors from 'Ripoffornia' state; decided to pick a location that was a surprise to many by method of decision; aiming to - No or least earthquakes, - No or least tornadoes, - No or least hurricanes, - No or least floods, - No or least forest fires, - No or least weather extremes. - No isolation from 'civilization' - No immersion in a big city. - Reasonable cost of living. - No or least gangs, crooks, crime. ----> Where would you choose to buy your home and reside from the above guidelines together ? And, would you add some other considerations to the list ?

In middle/late nineties, I frequented several forums long gone now. Cannot remember their exact website names. Is there a method to find if their contents are kept somewhere ? Am after MSN forums for sixties Cadillacs; and Popular Electronics, ElectronicsNow forums. Any suggestions/help will be appreciated.

5 years ago, I convinced myself I was doing it right; or at least better than using weed killer chemicals by lightly spraying gasoline localized on the leaves of unwanted weeds, or a couple of drops into the center were young leaves emerge. Which kills them quickly and very dead. Fully evaporates and does not drip into the soil. Those dandelions cannot resist the octanes. Would that be right ? Can there be any concerning traces in gasoline that do not evaporate that may be as bad or worse than massive commercial/gardening weed killers washed by rain into aquifers ?

Senselessly inefficient approach. The artificial light uses more energy than the panel will produce from it. ----> http://sargosis.com/how-shade-affects-a-solar-array/

Can you explain that, please ? The solar windmill spin will run an electric generator ? To propel the craft how ? Or the windmill spin is supposed to push the 'air' in deep space for propulsion ? And what will hold the spacecraft steady instead of following the spin? What would a patent protect ?

Watching television news works. Reading the lyrics while listening music works surprisingly well to sharpen the ear. Reading material of a subject you are familiar/expert-in works. A good experienced teacher works. Leaving fear and shame aside and converse even if poorly at the beginning works. Discarding deformed language speakers to learn properly works. (You must not attempt to learn Spanish from a typical Mexican)

Wait a moment. There are two situations to be differentiated here. A goofy writer masks results when autocorrected or checked by a program. But still a goofy writer. And perceived by a reader as 'intelligent' or 'educated' or 'conscious' Autocorrections meant for typographical mistakes and grammar mistakes are not the same. [ Typographical errors are not part of this discussion, I think. Should be about knowledgeable application of the language ]

Senseless English, that beyond having to memorize every word spelling, this crooked contraption of letters were invented : Why writing 'Pronunciation' if writing 'prə-nŭn'-sē-ā′-shən would express it properly ? Some day I hope to find a literature something written entirely with that method / characters, whatever they are called.

In my opinion, the English language being an spoken language in its roots is what mostly contributes to spelling errors. Whoever decided the current way to write a word in English is the correct way, was a senseless decision. Sorry, mister Shakespeare. English is very screwed up. The need to memorize the spelling of each word was a surprise to me learning this language. Do not know if other languages are alike, with 'spelling bee' contests. Phonetic languages are not like that. They are pronounced exactly as written, they are written exactly as heard; with every letter having one and only one sound. No problem in writing words never heard before, nor saying something as first found in written. Second is the interest of the writer on doing things right. Do not see the above as related to 'intelligence' 'law', 'knife' are two of thousand examples which make no sense. To me, should be 'lo' , 'naif'

If the phone contents are not extracted by Apple, terrorists will buy those. Gets them impunity. And more sales to Apple. If the phone contents are extracted by the goverment experts, with no Apple help, it will be another hurdle to good citizens, as we have enough imposed by NSA. If the phone contents are impossible to extract, that is the kind of phones crooks will buy. Gets them secure impunity. I think Apple should extract the contents of that phone only, inside their Apple premises and give/let the government decipher whatever is in it outside Apple installations.

Hello all. If a solar panel during cloudy daylight gets total shade on several cells, as from an object fallen/covering them ; If a solar panel in full darkness at night gets some cells illuminated by a flashlight ; Is there still some current passing/generation in both cases ? Or dark cells will block flow of current for the whole panel ?

Plenty of American history for maaaany centuries before 1800.
