Sea Creatures Still Arriving in the U.S. on Plastic Debris From the Japanese Tsunami Eight Years Ago | Science | Concrete Power Pole

“It’s really just a bigger version of what was there,” said Joe Bailey of Great Lakes Dock and Materials of Muskegon, which is doing the work. 

Because the roof had been dropped down, the stock mounting points for seat belts were no longer where they should be on the pillars. So, Garcia installed a set of aftermarket harnesses that attach to the ex-Blazer roll bar as well as some tabs that were welded to the roll cage as attachment points.

A driver who fell asleep at the wheel crashed into a parked state police cruiser on I-495 north just north of the Ward Hill Connector, resulting in a trooper being taken to Lawrence General Hospital with minor injuries, police said.

PS: Chinook is the same as king salmon. Chum has the least taste, doesn’t swim very far upstream, but its eggs are best for sushi. All salmon is high in fish oil, which is good for most of us (for the chem-curious, learn the difference between omega-3, -6 and -9). Numbers matter.

To this day, the Acura Integra Type R is widely regarded as one of the best (if not “THE” best) front-wheel drive performance car out of Japan.

“We’re not where I want to be, but we’re not behind schedule either, not to the point where I’m worried about making our deadline date,” he said.

Janssen noted that like other extrusion technologies, such as fused deposition modeling (FDM), CFAM does not make isotropic parts since the Z-axis demonstrates greater weakness than in the X- and Y-axes due to the weaker bonds between stacked layers. However, he believes that the Z-axis bonds may actually be stronger than in FDM due to the intense heat from printing at such a large scale. Moreover, the X- and Y-axes have even greater strength due to the fiber reinforcement.

Hanging the Aircurv curtain isn’t complicated, but inflating it was a little more challenging. It uses the same type of pop-out valve as you’ll find on inflatable beach toys, and while there appears to be a one-way valve inside to prevent air from escaping when you stop blowing, it didn’t work with the pre-production sample we tested. Inflating it by mouth (as most will) with enough pressure to keep the curtain rigid requires some lung force, and then trying to quickly cap the valve before all that air pressure escapes takes some trial and error. I imagine an air pump would make things a little less complicated, but I don’t keep one of those in my bathroom.

Protective netting was also an important issue addressed when building the ballpark, with Cook stressing that his team has implemented netting that "is the largest you’ll ever see in any major league ballpark."

To balance the lower roof, the car was dropped down by 4.5 inches on Subaru WRX coilovers. The Saturn S-series cars use fairly standard MacPherson struts, so apparently the WRX bits were relatively easily to install after re-drilling the coilovers’ top hat struts to match the pattern on the Saturn’s strut tower, and trimming the plate down to fit. Another way to fit these on an SL2 is to swap the top hats, but then you lose the camber adjustments on top. The lower bracket also had to be modified slightly to get it to fit the connection to the Saturn spindle.

Want to know what brought down all those power poles in South Seattle? Well, we’re going to have to wait a few more months because the DaVinci of power pole integrity is on the case. Nelson Bingel, a Georgia investigatorwas tapped to investigate why these 26 Tukwila power poles suddenly—and without explanation—fell, hitting at least two cars and sending two people to the hospital. At least 10 of them had identifiable cases of rot, however, they weren’t slated for replacement any time soon. The investigation will take several more months, according to Bingel.
